427: Heavenly Seed

Ye Xuan took the seed, which emitted a soft white glow, and felt a warm, jade-like sensation in his palm.

The Origin power of the old Heavenly Dao pulsed slightly in his hand, as if alive, resonating with his Chaos power.

However, beyond the resonance, he also felt a sense of repulsion.

Clearly, the Origin power of the old Heavenly Dao truly could not merge with him.

“So that’s how it is…” The starry vortex in Ye Xuan’s left eye slowly spun, and he fell silent for a moment after hearing Yue Xuan’s words.

“Since Tai Hao foresaw this day long ago, why didn’t he completely eliminate the Sky Demon then? Don’t tell me Tai Hao at that time didn’t have such strength. You know, Tai Hao at that time had already become a Dominator.”

“His strength was extraordinary and transcendent, no one was his match. Even I can kill the Sky Demon now, let alone Tai Hao.”

“Yes, I asked Tai Hao the same thing back then, but he didn’t give me an answer, only looked at the starry sky in silence.”

Yue Xuan shook her head; she also didn’t know what Tai Hao was thinking at the time. Perhaps Tai Hao truly couldn’t eliminate the Sky Demon then, or perhaps he had other thoughts.

Ye Xuan no longer dwelled on this question.

He looked up at the struggling black shadow of the Sky Demon, his voice deep: “The reason the Outer Realm Sky Demon can corrupt the Seal is because it has integrated with the remaining power of the old Heavenly Dao. To completely eliminate it…”

“We must end the old Heavenly Dao along with it.”

Yue Xuan took over, a complex light flickering in her silver eyes as she looked at Ye Xuan.

“This is the only way.”

Upon hearing this, Tang Linglong pursed her lips and tightened her grip on the Sword Dao in her hand: “What do you need us to do?”

Ye Xuan scanned everyone: “Lend me your power. The changing of the Heavenly Dao is no small matter. Even if it’s just the remnants of the old Heavenly Dao, it requires sufficient power to activate its Origin power. And most importantly, if the power of the old Heavenly Dao Origin is not handled properly, it could spread throughout the entire Immortal Realm.”

“At that time, the Immortal Realm will be completely lost in the Void Realm. So this time, we can only succeed, not fail.”

Upon hearing this, Fire Linger stepped forward without hesitation, her nine-colored Nirvana Flames dancing in her palm: “Count me in.”

Yue Xuan, holding the unconscious Jin Yao, nodded and said, “I will also use my power to help you.”

“I naturally won’t be stingy with my power.”

Tang Linglong also nodded without hesitation.

Ye Xuan took a deep breath, holding the Heavenly Dao Origin with both hands, suspended in the Void Realm.

Around him, the endless starry sky rotated, and the dazzling galaxy was incredibly brilliant and beautiful.

Yue Xuan stood behind him, her hands gently pressed against his back.

Tang Linglong and Fire Linger stood on either side, each placing a hand on his shoulder.

“Begin!”

As Ye Xuan’s words fell, Yue Xuan’s Taiyin power, Tang Linglong’s Sword Intent, and Fire Linger’s Nirvana Flames simultaneously surged into his body.

The three distinct powers, harmonized by the Chaos Emperor’s power, perfectly merged into a pure stream of energy, which was injected into the Heavenly Dao Origin.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The old Heavenly Dao Origin emitted a clear, resonant sound, and countless tiny golden patterns appeared on its surface.

It slowly floated up, stopping three feet in front of Ye Xuan, and began to take root and sprout!

Hair-thin roots of light extended from the bottom of the seed, penetrating the Void Realm.

They directly plunged into the Void Realm.

These roots precisely pierced into the Sky Demon’s black shadow.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

“Ah!!!!”

The Sky Demon let out a heart-wrenching shriek, its black shadow violently twisting.

The surrounding space also began to distort; clearly, the Sky Demon did not want to surrender so easily, but wanted to fight back.

However, this all seemed a bit different.

“It’s absorbing the Sky Demon’s power…”

Yue Xuan’s eyes widened in surprise.

“The old Heavenly Dao seed is devouring the Sky Demon to strengthen itself!”

Ye Xuan’s face was somewhat pale; reconstructing the Heavenly Dao was inherently a huge drain. If it weren’t for Ye Xuan’s current strength,

He would probably have been sucked dry the moment the old Heavenly Dao Origin began to appear.

“Not only that, it’s also absorbing the Seal power of the entire Immortal Palace. Look at those chains!”

Everyone followed his gaze and saw countless golden chains in the room disintegrating one by one, turning into pure energy absorbed by the seed.

With each chain absorbed, the seed’s light grew stronger, and its growth rate accelerated.

And the surrounding spiritual energy was also being rapidly absorbed.

“If this continues… the surrounding power will be completely merged.”

“No.”

Ye Xuan shook his head.

“The Immortal Palace was originally built by Tai Hao to suppress the Sky Demon and receive the Human Race. Its power is of the same Origin as the old Heavenly Dao. Now the seed is merely reclaiming these powers to complete its final Nirvana.”

As more and more energy was absorbed, the Origin power had grown into a three-foot-tall sapling.

The trunk was crystal clear, and its branches and leaves were carved from the finest white jade, with different Law runes flickering on each leaf.

Meanwhile, the Sky Demon’s black shadow had shrunk by more than half, and its struggle grew weaker and weaker.

“No… this is impossible…”

The Sky Demon’s voice became intermittent.

“I clearly… corrupted the Heavenly Dao… how could this be…”

Ye Xuan looked at it coldly: “You only corrupted the remnants of the old Heavenly Dao, and this seed was refined by Tai Hao from the purest old Heavenly Dao Origin, specifically as a final measure against you.”

When the last chain was absorbed, the Sky Demon’s black shadow was firmly entangled by countless roots of light, slowly dragging it towards the sapling.

“No! Let me go!”

The Sky Demon struggled wildly.

“I can give you power! Infinite power! Tai Hao, no, Ye Xuan! We can cooperate! Rule this world together, Lord Tai Hao, let me go.”

Ye Xuan, however, remained unmoved upon hearing this.

He merely slowly raised his hand, and the next moment, the power of the Heavenly Dao intensified.

The sapling suddenly burst forth with dazzling white light.

Under the illumination of this light, the Sky Demon’s black shadow rapidly dissolved.

The last wisp of black Qi was absorbed into the trunk, transforming into a subtle black pattern, which was then submerged by more white light.

The entire Immortal Palace vibrated violently!

The Formation patterns on the walls lit up one by one, but not in the previous golden color, but a pure white.

“It succeeded.”

Fire Linger let out a long sigh of relief.

“The Sky Demon has been completely eliminated.”

However, Ye Xuan’s expression remained solemn.

“It’s not over yet.”

He pointed to the sapling.

“The Rebirth of the old Heavenly Dao has just begun. We must transplant it to a suitable place, allow it to merge with the current Heavenly Dao, and complete the true changing of the Heavenly Dao.”

Tang Linglong mused, “What place can withstand such power?”

“I know a place.”

Yue Xuan put away the sapling and turned to walk out the door.

Everyone followed Yue Xuan out of the Seal room, returning to the Immortal Palace along the way they came.
