198: Zhang Suiren Da Luo, the terrified primordial races

"Hahaha, this is killing me! Heavenly Dao, you always thought you were making a profit, but I won't lose at all. How do you like this?"

"Tsk tsk, such a massive Karma; Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti simply cannot afford to pay it back. Or perhaps, they never intended to pay it off."

Within the Heavenly Realm of the Honghuang, Rahu's laughter rang out and reached Hongjun's ears.

What Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti now owed was equivalent to a massive deficit, and this deficit was caused by the Heavenly Dao—at least, a portion of it was.

For the Heavenly Dao, this was also an extremely troublesome matter.

If he didn't act against them, he would suffer a great loss; if he did act against them, the loss would be even greater.

No matter the choice, it was a deficit.

It would be better not to reclaim their Karma and let them maintain their Saintly Seats to recover some of the losses.

On Mount Sumeru, the two—Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti—were also extremely tactful. The moment they became Saints, they acted, using their Saintly power to mold the Great Dream World and the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss into what the Heavenly Dao desired.

This wasn't them backing down, but rather a need to demonstrate a sliver of their own value.

They weren't fools; they didn't truly believe that the one who owes money is the master. That was completely impossible.

The Heavenly Dao would also weigh the pros and cons; in a situation of total loss, how could it let you be like this?

Without achieving the Hunyuan Realm, you cannot escape the control of this world.

Regardless, the meat is rotting in the pot; there won't be a huge loss.

If you dared to not put in any effort at all, then the Heavenly Dao would remain in a state of loss. The Heavenly Dao is no fool; how could it allow you to continue like this forever?

There would only be one final outcome: taking everything you own, including your life, as the price to settle the Karma.

This is what the Heavenly Dao ought to do; after all, they cannot run. Without achieving the Hunyuan Realm, they cannot escape the control of the world.

Therefore, Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti simply had no other choice but to make their decision in this manner.

If they really dared to slack off, they would have to face the backlash of the Heavenly Dao.

The two of them certainly couldn't bear it, so they could only make a decision.

Above the firmament, the Heavenly Dao looked at the two who had strayed and also dismissed the idea of reclaiming everything.

Although the constructs of these two were empty shells, extremely ethereal and illusory...

At least within these two empty shells, some of the concepts were quite good. If they succeeded, he would also gain a lot.

If they failed, it wouldn't be a big deal; at worst, he would just reclaim the Saintly Seats.

At least in his view, their chance of success was still quite high.

The will of the Heavenly Dao gradually withdrew, returning to the space of the world's Origin.

In the Primordial World, as the Saints took their places, the aura of the world became extremely majestic, and the Laws became more complete and rigorous.

Within the Heavenly Realm, Rahu's gaze also held a hint of solemnity. Now that the Saints were in place, there would be some trouble; it would be difficult for his Demonic Path to succeed by taking shortcuts.

The world had become too perfect; the more perfect it was, the more it focused on the development of the world itself.

It would be impossible to achieve Daluo through various means as they did now, with those many shortcut methods being so dazzling and varied.

All of this was merely a manifestation of the world's incompleteness. Only when the world has deficiencies does it need more powerful beings to compensate; this is why the Demonic Path flourished.

Once the deficiencies between heaven and earth are filled, and the world no longer needs more powerful beings to complete it, the final result is certain.

The world will surely give birth to future powerhouses, and they won't be as uneven as they are now, with many taking shortcuts where the end of Daluo is their limit.

Hunyuan? Where do they get the face to dare covet that Realm?

Even for Daluo, they had to take shortcuts. If they could truly succeed, it would be truly bizarre.

"If the Demonic Path is a bit more difficult in this world, then so be it. Regardless, my goal is about to be achieved. Perfected Hun Yuan—if I can gain some inspiration from the Human Race, I can achieve it in the blink of an eye."

"The Fire Discoverer is also about to achieve the Daluo Realm. Once he reaches that Realm, I won't have to worry in the slightest."

Rahu pondered deeply, his gaze turning toward the Human Race. At this time, the Human Race had already undergone massive changes, gradually developing a civilization.

It wasn't just That One Taiyi was born; many existences had made a Breakthrough into the Taiyi Realm.

The youth who had once followed the Grand Supreme Elder Lord, That One, was also taken back to Kunlun Mountain by him and accepted as a Disciple.

In this way, with a Saint as a backer, even fewer races would strike at the Human Race.

The current situation had completely changed; the Human Race would not face suppression from the various other races of the Honghuang World, because there was no need for it.

Their opponents were the powerhouses from those otherworldly Realms.

If they still suppressed the Human Race, they would be true fools.

At this moment, within the Primordial World, among the Human Race, a cluster of firelight shone upon the Great Thousand, breaking free from the shackles of the River of Time and the River of Fate.

Within the Honghuang World, every Daluo looked toward the direction of the Human Race.

In the Heavenly Wolf Clan, the Heavenly Wolf Ancestor watched this scene, even more incredibly shocked.

"The Fire Discoverer has achieved Daluo? How is this possible? How could he reach the Daluo Realm, and by relying on his own power to step into this Realm?"

The Heavenly Wolf Ancestor spoke in disbelief. Did he know the significance of stepping into Daluo by relying on one's own strength?

This represented That One's path ahead was open; an existence that broke through to Daluo by relying on themselves showed that their accumulation was already sufficient.

They wouldn't be like those who took shortcuts, needing to spend time polishing their Realm.

Most importantly, for existences like them, the Quasi-Saint Realm was incredibly ethereal, with no possibility of Breakthrough, let alone reaching for the supreme Hunyuan Realm.

However, a Daluo who broke through by relying on their own strength had no such concerns; they had the potential to reach for the Hunyuan Realm, and their chances of breaking through the Daluo Realm were much greater than theirs.

"I am The Fire Discoverer. Today I have attained the Daluo Realm; my Human Race shall celebrate together."

The Fire Discoverer's voice spread throughout the entire Human Race. At this moment, the Human Race's Luck, which was originally somewhat weak and extremely fragile, rose by an unknown amount.

Not far from the Human Race, the Old Ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan stared with wide eyes, a trace of terror in them. Now that the Human Race had a Daluo, what should he do?

He understood the situation of the Human Race extremely well. For Innate Living Beings like them, their own race wasn't as important as one might imagine; if the power of a whole clan could allow them to achieve Daluo, they would make that decision without hesitation.

But the Human Race was an anomaly; the vast majority had lifespans of no more than ten thousand years. Even if they entered the Path of Cultivation, if they didn't reach the Immortal Path, they wouldn't exceed one Yuanhui.

They remembered things vividly; he had personally encountered many humans who, just before their lives ended, informed their descendants of everything the Myriad Innate Races had done.

Within the Human Race, there were even those at the Golden Immortal level who used Divine Abilities to let many descendants with good cultivation talent experience the pain the Human Race had suffered back then.

Looking at The Fire Discoverer, who had achieved Daluo, the Ice Spirit Old Ancestor began to panic.
