78: Chapter 78 My decree: Heaven's Way is the sword!

The prayers of billions of living beings converged into a vast torrent of faith, echoing between heaven and earth.

At the peak of Changge Peak, Su Changge slowly rose from his rocking chair.

At this moment, he was no longer that cowardly, snarky, salted-fish youth.

His eyes became unprecedentedly calm and profound, as if they contained the stars of the Universe and the vicissitudes of eternity.

He knew that what he was about to do next would completely change this world.

"System, redeem [Words Become Law], target: eradicate Demon Venerable Moro."

He issued the final command in his heart.

【Ding! Confirm consumption of 5,000,000,000 emotion points to use [Words Become Law (One-time Experience Card)]?】

"Confirm."

Su Changge's answer held not a hint of hesitation.

【Ding! [Words Become Law] has been activated! Host, please begin your performance!】

As the System's prompt faded, Su Changge felt as if an indescribable, supreme power had been injected into his body.

He felt that, at this moment, he had merged into one with the entire world.

He could feel the flow of the wind, the breath of the earth, and... the high and mighty, formless, yet omnipresent will of the "Heavenly Dao."

This was a wondrous feeling, as if he were the Dominator of this world.

He took a step, and his figure instantly vanished from the peak of Changge Peak.

The next moment, he appeared above the Tianduan Mountain Range, outside the despair-filled barrier known as the "Demon Prison."

His appearance did not trigger any phenomena between heaven and earth.

He just stood there quietly, his white robes whiter than snow, his black hair fluttering, forming a stark contrast with the towering demonic shadow below that blotted out the sky.

"Hmm? You little turtle, have you finally decided to come out of your shell?"

Inside the barrier, Moro, who was enjoying the pleasure of slaughter, noticed Su Changge's appearance.

He stopped his actions and looked with interest at this variable that he found "amusing."

"What? Have you figured it out? Ready to come out and die?" Moro asked teasingly.

Inside the barrier, those Eastern Wasteland experts still struggling to survive saw Su Changge's figure, and their eyes instantly erupted with incomparably brilliant light.

"It's the Dao Ancestor!"

"The Dao Ancestor has made a move! We are saved!"

They cheered as if they had grasped the final straw of salvation, celebrating their survival.

Su Changge ignored everyone.

His gaze landed calmly on Moro.

That gaze held no anger, no fear, not even the slightest ripple of emotion.

It was like a god looking down upon a speck of dust about to be crushed.

"I have given you a chance."

He spoke slowly; his voice was not loud, yet it clearly reached the ears of every living being present, and indeed, the entire Eastern Wasteland.

"Unfortunately, you did not cherish it."

Hearing this, Moro acted as if he had heard the funniest joke under heaven.

"Give me a chance? Hahaha! Little guy, have you not woken up yet? Do you think that with your meager Dao cultivation, you can contend with me?"

"Right now, I will let you see what a true, unbridgeable chasm is!"

As Moro spoke, he raised his hand, preparing to first drag Su Changge into his "Demon Prison" to slowly torture him.

However, Su Changge shook his head.

"Noisy."

He spoke these two words again.

But this time, these two words contained a completely different power.

He did not look at Moro, but slowly raised his head, gazing into the endless firmament.

He extended a finger, pointing remotely toward the sky.

Then, in a tone that was incomparably calm yet incomparably domineering, he spoke the words that would be recorded in the annals of this world, making the gods of eternity tremble.

"By my decree—"

His voice seemed to contain the constitution of heaven and earth, carrying unquestionable majesty.

"Heavenly Dao, become a sword, and eradicate the filth before me."

As his words fell.

The entire world, at this moment, completely froze.

The wind stopped.

The clouds stopped.

Everyone's thoughts seemed to have been frozen.

Time, at this moment, lost its meaning.

Immediately after, the high and mighty, formless, and omnipresent "Heavenly Dao" responded, for the first time, to a living being's "command."

"Rumble—!!!"

The entire Eastern Wasteland continent, and even the entire Cangxuan Dao Domain, began to tremble violently.

Above the sky, endless power of Laws began to converge crazily.

Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth...

Time, Space, Karma, Reincarnation...

All the Origin Laws that constituted this world, at this moment, transformed into the purest energy, condensing and compressing in the direction Su Changge's finger pointed!

A sword.

A sword that could not be described in any words, a massive sword of Laws that seemed to be formed by the entire world, radiating seven-colored light, slowly condensed and took form above the firmament.

This sword had no physical form.

But the pressure it exuded made even Moro, that ancient Demon Venerable, feel a fatal terror from the depths of his Soul!

"No... Impossible!"

Moro's face, which had always worn a teasing smile, showed an expression of extreme horror for the first time.

"Who... who exactly are you?! How could you... command the Heavenly Dao?!"

He could not understand!

He completely could not understand everything he was seeing before his eyes!

This had completely exceeded the limits of his cognition regarding the word "power"!

He wanted to flee.

But he discovered that the space around him had been completely locked by a supreme will, and he could not move at all!

He could only watch helplessly as that "sword of the heavenly dao," formed from the entire world, slowly aimed at him.
