222: Heavenly Way

“And although you now know that Daoist Lord Lei Yuan corresponds to the ‘Thunder God’ character, what is his purpose in showing you these scenes?”

“You are a bit at a loss.”

“After a long time, you temporarily give up thinking and turn to search the surroundings.”

“However, at this moment, Crisis Awareness sends you a warning.”

“The next moment, an immortal sword appears out of thin air and suddenly strikes at you!”

“It is accompanied by ten thousand feet of sword light, and the killing intent on it is compressed to the extreme.”

“Boom!!!”

“The sword light overwhelms everything.”

“The person behind the scenes, upon seeing his attack, is even more confident and lets out a soft chuckle.”

“However, he is destined to be disappointed.”

“The moment this person appeared, God of One-on-One Battles had already triggered.”

“The immortal sword bounces away the moment it touches you, falling directly to the ground.”

““Hmm? What a powerful Physical Body!””

““No wonder he dares to secretly help Emperor Xuanhuang release the Devil Heads!””

“A young man with sword-like brows and starry eyes slowly appears. His body is entwined with boundless Sword Intent, as if merely standing beside him would cause one to be torn to shreds by that Sword Intent in an instant.”

““What a strong aura.””

““Even if this person is not in the Saint Emperor Realm, he is probably not far from it.””

“You muse to yourself, but you are not flustered in the slightest.”

“Because there are only two of you here, the other party cannot harm you in the slightest, no matter what.”

““Kid, hand over your Soul Origin, and I can pretend nothing happened today!””

““Otherwise, hmph hmph…””

“The young man sneers, and anyone can see his ill intentions.”

“And as for his condition, you naturally cannot agree.”

“You immediately unleash towering demonic flames and attack the young man!”

““How bold?!””

““How dare a Heavenly Emperor Cultivator attack this venerable one?!””

“The young man shouts loudly, and an aura of Peak Saint Emperor suddenly erupts, instantly sweeping through everything here.”

“The next moment, boundless Sword Intent converges into a mass.”

“In an instant, it collides with the demonic flames.”

“Boom!!!”

“Terrifying explosions echo in all directions.”

“But in the end, they both pass through each other, striking you and the young Sword Cultivator respectively with undiminished force!”

“The young Sword Cultivator is covered in demonic flames, letting out painful wails.”

“While you, resisting the Sword Intent, appear beside him.”

““This… how is this possible…””

““How could a Heavenly Emperor Cultivator block my attack…””

“The young man struggles to get up, but he is powerless.”

“His Soul is rapidly burned away, turning into an empty shell in the blink of an eye.”

““Even a Peak Saint Emperor Cultivator can’t resist these demonic flames?””

“You muse to yourself, then fumble around the young man’s body.”

“You find his Storage Pouch.”

“Inside, you see something familiar.”

“Three maps, a large quantity of extremely high-quality immortal medicines, and Dao-achieving techniques.”

“Although these things are of no use to you now.”

“They all prove that this person is part of the same group as the mysterious people you encountered in the Black Gorge and Blood Marsh regions.”

“And their identities are most likely subordinates of the other two Saint Emperors in the Heavenly Court.”

“You incinerate the young man’s corpse, then begin searching the vicinity again.”

“Time flies, and with the arrival of a new Year Wheel Gift, you successfully follow its guidance to find a hidden space underground.”

“Similar to the Fire God and Earth God before.”

“At the very center of this space stands a statue.”

“Looking at its face, it is precisely Daoist Lord Lei Yuan from that previous memory!”

““As expected.””

““I just don’t know what spiritual items are still needed to remove Daoist Lord Lei Yuan’s Seal…””

“You murmur to yourself while observing this space.”

“But to your surprise, here, there is only the statue of Daoist Lord Lei Yuan.”

“Other than that, there is nothing else!”

“The discovery before you greatly perplexes you, but at this moment, another memory appears in your mind.”

“The protagonist of the memory is still Daoist Lord Lei Yuan.”

“At this time, he is full of vigor, and the entire Human Race is thriving under his leadership.”

“He works diligently, selflessly dedicating his life’s knowledge, and cultivating one Dao Transformation Realm Cultivator after another for the Human Race.”

“And these individuals respectively achieve Dao through metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, and wind.”

“From then on, the Human Race has eight Dao Transformation Realm Cultivators.”

“At this time, the Human Race is at its Peak, making countless races powerless to resist.”

“But the Heavenly Dao seems unwilling to let the Human Race dominate.”

“Just as these eight Dao Transformation Realm Cultivators had caused several races to go extinct, many Geniuses with extraordinary Aptitude emerged among other alien races.”

“Daoist Lord Lei Yuan immediately discovers this situation.”

“He begins to lead his Cultivators to extensively slaughter these exceptionally talented alien races.”

“However…”

“They cannot be completely killed.”

“No matter how Daoist Lord Lei Yuan slaughters them, new alien Prodigies always emerge.”

“And their Aptitude grows stronger and stronger, stronger and stronger.”

“Until one day, Daoist Lord Lei Yuan is defeated.”

“He loses to a junior from an alien race who was born only a few thousand years ago!”

“The huge sense of disparity almost causes him to collapse.”

“It is only then that he realizes that the Heavenly Dao simply does not want to see the Human Race grow too powerful.”

“And there is only one outcome for him to defy the Heavenly Dao: annihilation!”

“In the days that followed, those alien races unite and Seal all eight Dao Transformation Realm Cultivators of the Human Race: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and ice.”

“And today’s Myriad Realms are the Sealed regions demarcated by those alien races.”

“After learning this memory, you are speechless for a long time.”

“As an observer, what you see is actually clearer than Daoist Lord Lei Yuan.”

“Because those alien races are not fools; even if Dao Transformation Realm Cultivators cannot be completely annihilated, they would not give the Human Race’s Dao Transformation Realm an easy opportunity to escape.”

“And now, merely finding a spiritual item allows the Human Race’s Dao Transformation Realm Cultivators to escape; isn’t that too easy?”

“In this, it is likely that the so-called Heavenly Dao is secretly at work.”

“Thinking of this, a shadow involuntarily appears in your heart.”

“Because you feel that this so-called Heavenly Dao is not right.”

“Very not right.”

“It seems to be raising Gu, and it also seems to be maintaining the balance between the major races.”

“Suddenly, a large amount of Spiritual Qi surges into this space, interrupting your contemplation.”

“They converge into an arrow, pointing you in a certain direction.”

“It’s the statue!”
