Ascension to the Fourteenth Tier Universe Life Lord Realm, the Ancestral Gods and Myriad Sages Bow
It is the supreme Dao that governs the birth and death of billions of living beings in the universe, rules over all the heavens and myriad paths, and transcends all realms of life.
At first, the aura only enveloped the hundred-mile stretch of Qingfeng Mountain, quiet and silent, nourishing everything without leaving a trace.
In the next instant, this wisp of gray, dominant Dao Resonance suddenly stretched, rose, and spread out!
Like the wind sweeping across the void, like water flooding the heavens, it penetrates every nook and cranny and is omnipresent.
Originating from Qingfeng Mountain, it instantly pierced through the barrier between heaven and earth of the Ling Dynasty, tore apart layers of extraterrestrial void, and rapidly spread, enveloped, and overturned the entire vast and boundless Ancestral God Realm.
It traversed the void barrier, ignored the array's obstruction, penetrated the sacred land's protective array, and disregarded the territorial barriers of countless dynasties.
Regardless of distance, strength, or time.
In just a few breaths!
The vast and boundless Ancestral God Realm, spanning billions of miles, from the highest heavens to the deepest hells, from the top holy lands to the most remote mortal realms, all the void, all the mountains and rivers, all the secret realms, and all the forbidden areas were completely filled and locked by this thin yet absolutely supreme gray aura of dominance.
Throughout the entire Ancestral God Realm, the flow of time stood still, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth remained stagnant, and all the laws of nature fell silent.
All things bowed their heads.
The Ancestral God Realm is home to billions of beings and countless cultivators, yet at this moment, the cultivation, laws, and Dao hearts within all cultivators are stiff, silent, and dare not flow even slightly.
Especially all the Thirteenth Tier powerhouses who occupy the top level of the Ancestral God Realm.
Whether you are an elder who has just entered the Thirteenth Tier, a top expert who has lived for 100,000 years and is stuck at the Peak Stage, or an ancient monster who is halfway to the Fourteenth Tier.
Before this wisp of the Dao breath of the Lord of Life in the Universe, all beings are equal, all are but ants.
The true scope of the Ancestral God Realm is far more vast than the narrow-minded beings of the Ling Dynasty could imagine.
The highest level of power in this supreme realm is based on the "Holy Land," with strict hierarchical structures and clear barriers, remaining unchanged for eternity.
The entire Ancestral God Realm is dominated by the Ten Sacred Lands, which stand as the highest peaks, where the Ancestral Gods reign supreme and rule over all directions.
Each of the top holy lands controls thousands of cultivation dynasties under its command, possessing an astonishingly vast foundation. Thousands of the Thirteenth Realm experts Lie Dormant within their domains, ruling over countless ages and wielding immense power.
Beneath the Ten Great Holy Lands stand over eight hundred Secondary Holy Lands, dividing up the middle-level territory of the Ancestral God Realm.
The Xuanwu Divine Hall, which had been destroyed earlier, was among them, and among all the secondary holy lands, it could only be ranked at the very bottom.
It controls a mere few dozen dynasties, with only seventy-odd Thirteenth Tier experts under its command. The cultivation level of its hall masters is barely comparable to the Four-Expansion Thirteenth Realm. In the eyes of the people of the Ling Dynasty, it is already an unshakable, overwhelming, and colossal behemoth.
In the eyes of the Ten Holy Lands, such size, such foundation, and such combat power are far from enough to even be worthy of carrying their shoes; they are as insignificant as dust and ants.
The ten holy lands, holding the eternal power of the Ancestral God Realm, check and balance each other, form alliances through marriage, and compete with one another, steadily maintaining the highest level of order and balance in this world, unchanged since time immemorial.
The Tianyuan Holy Land, the foremost of the Ten Great Holy Lands, boasts over three thousand subordinate dynasties and has dozens of top-tier experts at the Peak Stage the Thirteenth Realm within its borders.
Furthermore, there is an ancient ancestor from a forbidden area who has not appeared for 100,000 years, possessing a foundation at the half-step Fourteenth Tier, who is recognized as the ceiling of the Ancestral God Realm.
The second-ranked Ten Thousand Dharma Holy Land governs over two thousand dynasties, specializing in celestial formations and fundamental laws. Its Scripture Pavilion houses thousands of Daoist books and secret texts dating back to the beginning of time, possessing ultimate legal principles that are unparalleled in the heavens.
The third-ranked Divine Abyss Holy Land governs 1,800 dynasties and establishes its path through slaughter. Its disciples are all born from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, possessing boundless fighting spirit and a fearsome reputation that shakes the world.
The remaining seven holy lands, even the weakest in strength, still firmly govern a thousand dynasties, with over a thousand experts at the Thirteenth Realm under their command, their foundations unfathomable.
For 100,000 years, the lords of the ten holy lands and countless Peak Stage experts have all been trapped and died before the ultimate barrier of the Thirteenth Realm Peak Stage.
They exhausted all the accumulated knowledge of countless ages, depleted all the rare and precious materials, comprehended all the world's top secret scriptures, and tried every method of breakthrough.
But the ultimate chasm that lies above the Thirteenth Tier and leads to the Fourteenth Tier remains cold, merciless, and insurmountable.
Ten thousand years have passed, and generations of outstanding talents have grown old, faded into oblivion, and returned to dust.
Over time, a deep-seated understanding quietly took root in the hearts of the top experts throughout the Ancestral God Realm—
The Fourteenth Tier might just be an ancient, illusory legend; no one in the world could possibly reach such a supreme realm.
To this day.
The moment Chen Du broke through to the Fourteenth Tier of the Sovereign Dao Resonance, it filled the entire Ancestral God Realm.
The top-level structure, which had remained stagnant for 100,000 years, has been completely shattered!
The Taiyuan Holy Land, deep within an ancient forbidden zone.
That ancestor, who had been in seclusion for hundreds of millions of years, was halfway to the Fourteenth Tier, and had been overlooking the Ancestral God Realm for tens of thousands of years, was originally sitting in a state of desolation and death, his heart ashen, and had long since become indifferent to the path ahead.
But the moment that wisp of gray, sovereign aura seeped into the forbidden area and brushed against his body and soul, his eyes, which had been dormant for ten thousand years, suddenly snapped open!
His cloudy, aged pupils trembled violently, his eyes surging with utter disbelief, utter shock, and a longing buried deep within him for millennia.
His body stiffened, his soul trembled, and even his half-step Dao foundation, which had been stable for 100,000 years, began to tremble and hum slightly.
He gazed in the direction from which the aura emanated in the endless void, his lips trembling for a long time. With all his remaining strength, he hoarsely uttered two heart-wrenching words:
"It's done..."
Fourteenth Tier —someone actually succeeded!
The Ten Thousand Dharma Holy Land, the main peak with its scripture repository.
The Lord of the Holy Land sat upright before his desk, comprehending the origins of ancient laws, with countless precious Daoist scriptures spread out before him.
The moment the aura of the sovereign covered his body, his entire Dao heart trembled violently, and all the myriad laws within his body extinguished, stopped, and bowed down.
An absolute suppression originating from the pinnacle of the Great Dao crushed his very soul.
He could no longer sit still and suddenly sprang up from the prayer mat!
A sudden gust of wind arose, and the mountain of priceless books piled on the table were all blown away and scattered on the ground by the invisible shockwave.
He completely ignored the precious secret manuals scattered on the ground, his eyes fixed on the distant void, his blood surging and his mind trembling to the extreme.
The Divine Abyss Holy Land, a secret realm for killing and seclusion.
The Holy Land Lord, who is known for his cold-bloodedness, ruthlessness, and heart of stone, is currently in seclusion honing his foundation in the path of slaughter.
As the aura of dominance entered his body, the supreme pressure that surpassed all life and ruled over all beings instantly shattered his Dao heart barrier.
His blood and qi surged suddenly, a sweet taste rose in his throat, and a mouthful of scalding hot blood gushed out!
This was not a backlash from his injuries, nor was it caused by external force. Rather, it was the ultimate shock, the ultimate excitement, and the ultimate resonance with his Dao heart that caused his eternally stable cultivation and blood to completely lose control, surge, and explode!
More than just the three top holy sites.
Deep within the remaining seven holy lands, the holy land lords and Peak Stage beings who had reigned over countless ages and overlooked the heavens were all completely enveloped by this aura of world-shaking dominance.
Some people's Dao heart, which had stood firm for 100,000 years, collapsed instantly; their knees buckled, and they knelt heavily on the ground, trembling all over.
Some people's age-old obsessions crumble in a single day, and they throw their heads back and laugh wildly, their laughter desolate yet relieved, echoing through the mountains and rivers;
Some people spend their entire lives seeking the Way but fail to attain it. At this moment, tears stream down their faces, and all the obsessions of their lives have finally come to an end.
At this moment, all the Peak Stage Thirteenth Tier experts and all the half-step Fourteenth Tier old monsters were completely stunned.
Deep within their consciousness, a blurry figure of a young man appeared simultaneously and uncontrollably.
The figure was not tall or large, with a hazy face, lacking any power or influence, and utterly unremarkable.
Yet this hazy figure brought an extreme chill, originating from the very source of life, to all the top experts in the heavens!
That was the supreme posture of the ruler of billions of cosmic life forms looking down upon all living beings.
It is an absolute majesty that is revered by all paths and that all living beings bow down to.
For 100,000 years, they have considered themselves to have reached the pinnacle of the Ancestral God Realm, standing on the heavens and overlooking all races, believing that they have reached the very top of the path of cultivation.
Only now did they truly understand.
Their proud Peak Stage is nothing more than a slightly raised mound of earth before the true ruler of the Great Dao—humble, laughable, and insignificant.
The accumulated wisdom, unparalleled foundation, and overwhelming power of the Thirteenth Tier Peak Stage are as insignificant as dust, mayfly, and blade of grass before the realm of the Fourteenth Tier cosmic life master.
After a brief moment of disorientation, shock, fear, and excitement, all the top leaders of the ten holy lands of the Ancestral God Realm bowed deeply!
The half-step Fourteenth Tier ancestor of the Taiyuan Holy Land, with his trembling, straightened his aged body and bowed deeply in the distant direction where the figure in the void was located, performing the highest salute.
Behind him stood dozens of the Thirteenth Realm Peak Stage elders, all of whom looked down upon the heavens. Without exception, they all knelt on both knees, their backs taut, their souls bowing their heads.
The Lord of the Ten Thousand Dharma Holy Land knelt, his head pressed to the ground, repeatedly muttering in a near-mad tone, "The Fourteenth Tier... it really is the Fourteenth Tier... so this realm truly exists..."
The ruthless and bloodthirsty overlord of the Divine Abyss Holy Land trembled violently and knelt on the ground, unable to distinguish whether it was the ultimate awe stemming from his very being or the extreme elation of having his long-cherished wish fulfilled.
The other seven holy land lords, countless reclusive old monsters, and ancient great powers all bowed their heads and knelt on the ground. The entire top-level territory of the Ancestral God Realm was completely silent, with all the saints bowing in unison.
They were never kneeling before the young Daoist priest on Qingfeng Mountain.
They were kneeling before the Fourteenth Tier Sovereign Realm, which had remained untouched for ten thousand years and unassailed for countless ages.
It is that supreme and ultimate path that they could never reach, no matter how many years they spent and how much they accumulated throughout the ages!
The entire Ancestral God Realm, which had maintained its balance for countless ages, completely collapsed from that moment on.
The ancestral god system was completely rewritten by one person, one realm, and one breath.
