36: Chapter 36 The Heavenly Dao Establishes its Authority - Reincarnation Suppresses the World

As the words fell, Zhu Rong immediately laughed in wild ecstasy, and a gleam of excitement also flashed in the eyes of the other Twelve Ancestral Witches.

"Let's go! To the Primordial World!"

Dijiang flicked his sleeves, and twelve figures tore through the air, leaving Pangu Hall in a grand procession.

...

Jiang Chen passed through the gate of space and arrived at the Samsara World in an instant.

The sight before him caused anger to appear on his stern face—the Samsara World was trembling violently, densely packed with spatial rifts, nearly on the verge of collapse!

Without hesitation, he summoned the samsara purple lotus and merged it with the origin of the world, only then slowly calming the turmoil.

In the next instant, Jiang Chen appeared above the Primordial World, his aura sweeping across heaven and earth, causing the entire Primordial World to tremble violently!

"What a fine Heavenly Dao, just awakened, and you already want to establish your might before me!"

He pointed into the firmament at that cluster of condensed radiance of laws, his killing intent soaring to the heavens, causing heaven and earth to tremble in fear.

Hum—

The sky trembled slightly, and the light of laws slowly dissipated, replaced by a huge, silver-white eye silently gazing downward.

This was the eye of heavenly dao!

Hanging high above the heavens, a silver-white pupil quietly emerged.

Indifferent and arrogant, it looked down upon all living beings as if they were insignificant ants.

Deep within that pupil, three thousand intersecting chains of laws vaguely appeared, circulating with an inviolable, supreme majesty.

Clang—clang—clang—

As the eye of heavenly dao opened, mysterious and distant Dao sounds echoed throughout heaven and earth.

Ten thousand laws resonated, the firmament shone, and starlight fell into the void like rain.

Countless Primordial creatures could not help but prostrate themselves and kowtow, trembling incessantly.

Even Hongjun and Luo Hou could not escape this ordeal—though they had reached the Half-step Hunyuan realm, their instinctive awe of the Heavenly Dao had long been carved into their marrow and fused into their spirits.

The Heavenly Dao governs order and adjudicates destiny; with a single thought, it can determine the life and death of billions of living beings.

Therefore, all who are born in the Primordial World harbor fear.

Beneath Mount Buzhou, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, who had just snuck out of Pangu Hall, looked up at the sky, their expressions instantly freezing.

"The... the eye of heavenly dao!"

Their faces turned deathly pale, and they almost collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, Mount Buzhou was protected by the will of pangu; otherwise, the suppression force alone would have been enough to grind them into dust.

Only Jiang Chen remained unmoved.

As the Lord of the Earthly Dao, he stood on equal footing with the Heavenly Dao, and the will of the Heavenly Dao could not disturb his body.

"Hmph!" A cold snort burst from his mouth, and behind him, six profoundly deep vortices suddenly emerged, slowly rotating, swallowing the universe, and releasing a suffocating aura of samsara and the power of devouring. The space around him twisted and collapsed, as if even time was being torn apart.

This was—the Six Paths of Reincarnation!

The instant the Six Paths of Reincarnation appeared, the entire Primordial World fell into dead silence.

Endless living beings lay prostrate and wailed, vegetation instantly withered and rotted, and all vitality was extracted.

Rumble—

Heaven and earth trembled, the void cracked inch by inch, the laws shattered, and ten thousand Daos mourned.

The Primordial World seemed to be returning to chaos, stepping into the wheel of samsara.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches beneath Mount Buzhou, Hongjun on Yujing Mountain, and Luo Hou on the summit of Mount Sumeru all wore expressions of horror, sweating profusely.

Hum!

Suddenly, the Heavenly Dao made its move!

From the silver eye, three thousand divine chains of laws shot out, weaving into a net that covered the eight wildernesses, pouring infinite power of laws into heaven and earth.

As if time were reversed, the earth regained its vigorous vitality, withered trees bloomed again, and all things recovered; the shattered void also gradually healed and returned to stability.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen looked solemn and abruptly raised his hand to summon.

Boom—

The Primordial continent shook violently, and a phantom, massive samsara purple lotus rose from the underground, spanning the central region and covering the firmament.

He looked up to the sky and roared, and the samsara purple lotus instantly disassembled—

Twenty-four lotus petals transformed into a samsara divine sword, while the lotus pedestal condensed into a samsara millstone.

"Heaven and Earth Samsara!"

The samsara divine sword was inserted into the core of the millstone, with the six vortices surrounding it, all operating in unison.

Boom!

With just one turn, billions of miles of void collapsed with a roar, countless living beings were silently annihilated, their forms and spirits destroyed, and even light was ground into darkness.

The eye of heavenly dao was extremely angry, shooting a brilliant beam of Dao light from its pupil, which scattered and flew toward the four poles of heaven and earth.

In the next instant, beast roars that shook the universe came from the four directions:

In the east, the Azure Dragon soared through the clouds and broke the firmament, its scales and claws flying.

In the south, the Vermilion Bird flapped its wings, burning the sky with ten thousand zhang of flames.

In the west, the White Tiger roared across the nine wildernesses, its killing intent piercing the heavens.

In the north, the Black Tortoise stepped on the waves, shaking the earth, with a snake coiled around a turtle.

The Four Great Sacred Beasts rushed over from the four poles, their speed exceeding the limits of space-time.

"The Four Great Sacred Beasts!" Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

These four beasts were transformed from the will of pangu, all having reached the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Venerable realm, guarding the four directions and driven by the Heavenly Dao; they were, in fact, the guards of the Heavenly Dao.

Roar—howl—chirp—low—

The four beasts cried out in unison, spitting out divine light of rules, directly striking the samsara millstone.

Rumble—

The millstone was damaged and reversed; in an instant, billions of miles of territory seemed to undergo time reversal, returning to their original state, and even the deceased living beings reappeared.

Jiang Chen stood atop the millstone, pulled out the samsara divine sword, and slashed with a sharp sword radiance.

"Slash!"

The sword light soared to the heavens, reversing yin and yang, breaking through the shackles of space-time, and struck head-on against the massive web of laws covering heaven and earth.

Crack—

The giant web shattered, opening a huge crack.

With the divine web broken, the Heavenly Dao was enraged and immediately ordered the Four Great Sacred Beasts to surround and kill Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen twisted his neck, his fighting spirit boiling, and laughed wildly: "Since I was born, I have never had a hearty battle. Today—is just the right time for a satisfying fight!"

"Let me first meet you all in my Devouring Form!"

As the words fell, Jiang Chen's figure flickered, heaven and earth suddenly changed color, and a white-haired demon god appeared majestically. His skin, pale as frost, glowed with an eerie halo, and his pupils were pitch black as ink, with no irises visible, only deep light circulating, as if they were two deep wells leading to nothingness.

Two huge white fleshy wings slowly unfolded behind him, tearing through the void and covering the firmament, as if a rift had been torn in the sky.

This was the "Devouring Form"—the supreme battle body that Jiang Chen had comprehended in Pangu Hall, converting all the power of rules within his body into pure power of devouring, with combat power approaching that of the Devouring Demon God at the beginning of chaos.

Besides this form, there was also the "Samsara Form."

If he were to attain the Dao with the Law of Space-Time in the future, he could also derive a third form—the Space-Time Body.

"Fight!"

This time, Jiang Chen did not use the samsara divine sword, but instead summoned the bronze coffin. This coffin was transformed from half of the remains of the Devouring Demon God from the Chaos Era, containing the origin of devouring, and it fit perfectly with Jiang Chen's current body, allowing his strength to explode to twice its original level!

In an instant, with the bronze coffin above his head and killing intent soaring to the heavens, he rushed directly toward the Four Great Sacred Beasts.

At the same time, the samsara millstone rose into the air and clashed fiercely with the Heavenly Dao.

An earth-shattering battle that would shake all worlds thus began!

"Fight!"

Jiang Chen stood in the vast expanse, the bronze coffin above his head, his body surging with suffocating power of devouring. He did not act, but once he did, heaven and earth cracked, and the universe trembled.

Seeing this, the Four Great Sacred Beasts quickly retreated to the four directions, each standing on a corner. Ancient formation diagrams appeared under their feet, connecting and intersecting with each other, instantly forming a sealing array that trapped Jiang Chen in the center.

Chant—roar—howl—chirp—

The four beasts roared in unison, their voices shaking the universe. The formation diagram expanded violently, with countless Dao patterns leaping endlessly on it, evolving into four miniature worlds of Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire, layered one upon another, suppressing from all directions.

In an instant, Jiang Chen felt the scene before him twist and change. When he regained his focus, he was already in a desolate and dead world of yellow sand. The sky and earth were dim, the four fields were boundless, as if the entire universe were a desert.
