Law of Heaven

Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian joined forces, barely managing to withstand the power of Cangli's Law of Destiny.

Cangli decided to hold nothing back and used the World-Opening Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell. The Chaos Bell possessed the might to suppress the primordial chaos and reverse time on a small scale.

The space above the Nine Heavens was at Cangli's command. The Chaos Bell hung above his head, radiating myriad feet of Xuanhuang Qi, as he prepared to use the Way of Space to cut off the Supreme Stars' enhancement of the Starlight Great Formation.

The Three Heavens were not about to sit idly by. They erupted with the full power of their Innate Spiritual Treasures.

"Suppress!" Cangli shouted coldly. The Chaos Bell suddenly inverted, its mouth turning into a black hole that devoured heaven and earth. Cangli intended to seal the Three Heavens and end the battle.

Cang Tian looked at Qing Tian and Huang Tian, and they nodded together.

"Law of Heaven, emerge! Heavenly Law Dharma Aspect!"

"The Primordial Sky is our home ground, Cangli! Your end is here!"

The Law of Heaven clashed violently with the Law of Destiny. The Law of Heaven governed the laws of starlight. Watching from the sidelines, Li Fan could vaguely see the Starlight Great Array bearing traces of the Demon Race's Zhou Tian Star Array from Later Generations.

The Chaos Bell let out a clang—an ancient Dao sound that swept across the eight wilds. Space for millions of miles instantly froze. In that moment, Cangli seized the opening and drove the power of the Law of Destiny into the bodies of the Three Heavens.

The laws within Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian went into chaos. Their origins backlashed, and they spat blood.

Their faces twisted in fury, the Three Heavens used the divine ability "Three Faces of Heaven," representing the three aspects of the Pure Qi of Heaven. This was a combined divine ability that only gods born from the origin of the Pure Qi of Heaven could comprehend, capable of unleashing the ultimate power of the Law of Heaven.

The "Three Faces of Heaven" divine ability collided with the Chaos Bell. Where the shockwave passed, earth, wind, water, and fire manifested, blasting both sides apart.

Cangli, possessing the World-Opening Supreme Treasure, only had a pale face, but his own Origin Dao Injury was on the verge of breaking free.

Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian could barely still fight. Neither side had expected the battle to drag on without conclusion.

The Five Elder Lords, led by Great God Hongjun, arrived at the center of the battlefield.

Great God Hongjun spoke kindly, trying to mediate: "Heavenly Emperor, and Cang Tian, Qing Tian, Huang Tian—stop fighting, all of you. The last great war was a lesson; the Chaos Demon Gods were the ones who profited."

Cangli's face was filled with rage. "Impossible! I will never agree!" Even if it worsened his Origin Dao Injury, he would erupt with the Law of Destiny at the Grand Unity Twelfth Heaven to defeat the Three Heavens.

The Three Heavens were also on high alert against Cangli, ready to counterattack at any moment.

Seeing both sides still at each other's throats, Hongjun's face darkened.

Great God Hongjun produced the Pangu Banner. "Can you give me some face? If not, I happen to be somewhat skilled in fists and feet."

The other four of the Five Elder Lords also brought out their spiritual treasures, staring intently at Cangli. If they dealt with him, the War of the Nine Heavens could end.

The Five Elder Lords directly threatened Heavenly Emperor Cangli. Rage filled Cangli's heart. With Earth Emperor Yuejian and Human Emperor Jiutou Clan absent, the matter was already settled.

The Nine Heavens of the Primordial World were split apart. Cangli returned to Grand Unity Heaven with a dark expression, mentally adding another grudge against the Five Elder Lords. Three Heavens, just wait. This isn't over.

Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian had achieved their goal, beaming with joy. They thanked the Five Elder Lords for their help and went into seclusion to heal their injuries.

When Heavenly Emperor Cangli returned, he discovered that because the Nine Heavens of the Primordial World were incomplete, the current Six Heavens were very fragile. Was this the calamity of Grand Unity Heaven?

Cangli sensed his own fortune draining away even under the suppression of the World-Opening Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell. Suppressing his anger, he first went into seclusion to heal.

Hidden in the shadows, the Destiny Demon God revealed a smug smile. He hadn't acted personally in this battle, but he had used the Law of Destiny to influence the Three Heavens.

Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian had harbored thoughts of breaking away from the Nine Heavens of the Primordial World. The Destiny Demon God fanned the flames from the shadows, using the Law of Destiny to exert influence. Acting personally risked being discovered by the Great Divine Powers of the Primordial World.

The Chaos Demon Gods were notoriously disunited. As one of the five demon gods who escaped the last great war, alone, he had only recovered to the Grand Unity Eleventh Heaven.

The Destiny Demon God was the Heavenly Emperor's Dao Enemy. He had discovered that Grand Unity Heaven within the Nine Heavens of the Primordial World was part of Heavenly Emperor Cangli's Grand Unity Dao Fruit, so he sought ways to weaken him.

On the Taiyin Star, Wangshu spoke up: "It's a pity that no demon god appeared in this War of the Nine Heavens. They've become more cunning."

"Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian, with the support of the Starlight Great Formation, could actually match Cangli, who was injured by the Dao. The Starlight Great Formation is not weak, but the Supreme Stars had quite a bit of their law power drained."

Empress Ziguang said with a domineering air: "We can't let them use the Starlight Great Formation frequently. It's a drain on the Supreme Stars. The Primordial Starry Sky is still evolving and cannot be affected by the three of them."

Solar Star God Li Fan added: "The Three Heavens must compensate for the losses of the three Supreme Stars in this War of the Nine Heavens. They must also be restrained from using the formation at will."

The three Supreme Star Gods were on the Taiyin Star, drinking tea and discussing the Dao, savoring Huangzhong Plums and Zhou Tian Star Fruits. What a leisurely pleasure.

With all three stewards of the starry sky present, Li Fan, Wangshu, and Ziguang discussed establishing order in the starry sky. Auxiliary Star Gods could freely use the Star Gate to travel between star domains. The starry sky was becoming more lively and prosperous.

A hundred thousand years later, Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian emerged from seclusion. Li Fan personally went to invite the three to the Solar Star as guests.

Li Fan arrived at these Three Great Thousand Worlds. The calamity had passed, and all things were beginning to recover. Time had smoothed over all pain.

Within the Great Thousand Worlds, seas of clouds surged like silver waves. Magnificent divine palaces floated atop colorful auspicious clouds, while below, endless mountain ranges rose and fell like the spines of giant dragons.

The Three Heavens had already sensed the arrival of Solar Star God Li Fan.

Qing Tian frowned deeply and quietly asked the other two: "The Solar Star God comes with ill intent. Cang Tian, Huang Tian, do we fight or make peace?"

Huang Tian looked expectantly at Cang Tian.

Cang Tian's face was full of helplessness. "Circumstances are stronger than people. The Solar Star God represents the starry sky this time, with Taiyin Star Lord and Doumu Yuanjun backing him. Let's go out and welcome our guest."

"Solar Star God, what brings you to our humble abode? Is there some important matter to discuss?"

Li Fan smiled. "The three of you have a connection with our starry sky, so I came to pay a visit."

The four of them exchanged laughter within the divine palace. Then Li Fan expressed his wish to learn about the Law of Heaven. To build a good relationship with Li Fan, the Three Heavens expounded the Dao to all beings within the Great Thousand Worlds.

Within the worlds, the sound of the Dao shook the eight wilds like a great bell. Countless divine patterns interwove into profound laws. Divine radiance cascaded from the heavens, ancient divine words hung in midair, purple lightning and blue frost swirled around, and strands of Dao resonance spread like substance, causing the souls of all beings to tremble. Li Fan also shared the Way of the Sun with the myriad spirits.

Li Fan was secretly delighted. This trip was worth it. By comprehending the Law of Heaven, his Way of the World had advanced further. He was not far from the Grand Unity Seventh Heaven.

After the ten-thousand-year lecture concluded, the myriad beings within the world bowed in thanks to the four great gods. Some living creatures even erected a statue of the Sun God in Li Fan's likeness, offering daily worship.

Having achieved his goal, Li Fan prepared to return to the Star Sky. He spoke to Cang Tian, Qing Tian, and Huang Tian:

"In ten thousand years, I will host a small banquet on the Sun Star. Taiyin Star Lord and Doumu Yuanjun will also attend. I hope the three of you will grace it with your presence."

The corner of Cang Tian's mouth twitched slightly, forcing a barely maintained curve, though a flicker of unease passed through his eyes.

"Sun Star Lord, we will arrive punctually to attend the banquet."

Before departing, Li Fan gifted the three heavens some Dao Comprehension Divine Tea. This was the fourth batch of tea leaves—there was simply too much to drink, far too much to finish.
