Heaven cannot interfere with her, cannot lead her, and cannot enslave her.
If she is a saint conceived by heaven, she will be reduced to a pawn of heaven like the other six saints, sinking into invisible shackles.
But Empress Houtu is not a minister of heaven.
Feeling the strange fluctuations all over Empress Houtu, Dao Ancestor Hongjun sighed softly and whispered to himself, "Desolate Heavenly Emperor has not been around for long, and Heavenly Emperor Ye has come to heaven and earth again."
"Heavenly Emperor Ye and Desolate Heavenly Emperor are already as capable as me. Desolate Heavenly Emperor once even surpassed me. Now, there is another Empress Houtu."
"Primordial World shouldn't be able to accommodate so many existences that transcend common sense. Could it be that the environment where Houtu is located is not within the scope of Saint?"
Doubts arose in his mind. If it was not a holy realm, then what should this realm be called?
In this world, who else can check and balance Empress Houtu?
She has never rebelled against the order of heaven, and Hongjun has no reason to suppress it.
But her appearance has undoubtedly become an unpredictable part of Primordial World, making Hongjun even more troublesome.
His eyes slowly turned to Su Yang, and there was a trace of shock and complexity in Hongjun's eyes.
"Where did this storyteller named Su Yang come from?"
"To be able to help people reach an almost holy level, his background is absolutely extraordinary."
"He knows Primordial World very well, and he even knows the secrets of Myriad Worlds."
"What's even more puzzling is that Desolate Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly Emperor Ye, and even Ruthless Great Emperor, Great Emperor Wushi, Corpse Immortal Emperor are all willing to follow him."
Hongjun closed his eyes slightly and breathed slightly. Why are those beings who have existed for eternity willing to submit to one person?
This question may never have an answer.
But when he looked at Empress Houtu, who had already entered "Realm of Sacrificing the Dao" and was as powerful as Three Corpses Sage, he just shook his head and gave up.
Today's Houtu is no longer within his control. Even if he intervenes intentionally, it will be difficult to shake it at all.
That's all, I can only pretend not to know.
Letting it develop may be the only feasible way at the moment.
This can be regarded as a kind of concession and a kind of acquiescence.
Hongjun only hopes that Su Yang and others will not disturb the foundation of Primordial World and cause irreparable waves.
Currently Primordial World is in pre-tribulation silence, the real Immeasurable Kalpa has not yet opened, and Journey to the West is just a prelude.
However, through Fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation's deduction, he had already glimpsed that the Tianji catastrophe was about to begin, just after the end of Journey to the West.
At that time, the situation will change and the world will be washed again.
Hongjun's only request is that Su Yang and those powerful people should not get involved in Primordial World's cause and effect.
"Everything happens as it happens, I hope it doesn't get out of control."
Dao Ancestor Hongjun gently closed his eyes, his thoughts drifting away like clouds.
He can only hope in the future and wait and see what happens.
Deep Chaos, Eight Views Palace.
Grand Pure Laozi slowly opened his eyes, Empress Houtu's words echoed in his ears, and his heart was suddenly shocked.
The power carried by that voice actually made him feel uneasy.
Houtu, has it really entered the Saint realm?
But when he carefully felt the breath flowing in her body, his brows furrowed quietly.
"This is not a holy realm given by heaven, and there is no trace of earth's blessing."
"Her power is not recognized by the rules of heaven and earth."
But that coercion was real and even exceeded the scope of Saint.
"This level of existence is beyond ordinary measurement."
"Could this be the way of practice spread by Foreign Domain?"
"She chose another path and entered a realm that does not belong to this world?"
Grand Pure Laozi was breathing heavily. Although the momentum was not directed at him, it was like an invisible mountain weighing on his heart.
Houtu's current strength is already on par with him, perhaps even better.
This made him, who had always been calm, feel doubtful.
How far has she reached?
What should we call that realm?
Suddenly, his eyes fell on the figure of Sect Master Tongtian in the inn in the distance, and his heart suddenly stirred up a storm.
"Tongtian previously said that he would cultivate himself. Could it be that... it is not a step back, but a new path?"
"Does he want to break away from the old consequences, open up a new path, and break through the existing limits?"
Thinking of this, Grand Pure Laozi's fingertips trembled slightly.
Becoming Heavenly Dao Sage is already the pinnacle of Primordial World.
Now, some people actually intend to take that final step towards the unknown.
So what about Su Yang? What methods did he use to make Houtu reach such a height?
Is it this Dharma Gate that makes Tongtian willing to give up his original achievements and restart his spiritual practice?
These questions swirled in my mind. Grand Pure Laozi couldn't confirm it, but I had a vague feeling that the truth might be hidden in it.
But he did not leave for the Earthly Immortal Realm, nor did he immediately break into the mysterious inn Qingshan City.
He decided to wait and see if Tongtian would take that step.
Perhaps, the real reason for that sword strike was to leap to a higher shore.
Amidst the chaos, Yuqing Palace stands quietly.
Primordial Lord of Heaven noticed the oppressive force surrounding Empress Houtu, and heard every word she said clearly.
"From now on, there will no longer be the name Pingxin, the master of the earth. I, Houtu, voluntarily give up my identity as the master of the earth, just to protect Su Yang's path forward."
"In the three realms, anyone who has thoughts about Su Yang is my enemy."
"If the quasi-sage comes to attack you, I will kill him."
"Saint If I take action, I will not shy away from the edge."
"Even if Heaven comes in person, I will give everything I have to fight against it."
After the words settled, the air seemed to freeze, Primordial Lord of Heaven's breathing stagnated slightly, and a storm passed through his heart. Shock first appeared in his eyes, and then a trace of anger ignited.
Houtu is just entering the realm of being on par with Saint for the first time, how dare he say such decisive words?
Such a declaration almost tore apart the iron rules of order that existed throughout the ages.
Does she really think that no one can control it? Does she really not believe that the power of heaven can suppress it?
But when the aura that transcended the norm and made people want to kneel down really spread, Primordial Lord of Heaven fell silent.
This is not a holy realm tolerated by heaven, nor is it an expedient way to achieve it with the help of external forces.
"Could it be that... she didn't just kill the three corpses, but found another way?"
As soon as the idea came up, he denied it again. "It's impossible."
"If it is really Method of Severing the Three Corpses, it is absolutely impossible to jump from Quasi-Sage Peak to such a high place in just ten days."
"Even if you master the secret method, your cultivation needs to have a solid foundation and the resonance of heaven and earth. How can it be achieved overnight?"
He stared at Su Yang who was sitting quietly in the inn, with ripples rising in his eyes.
"How should this realm be defined? Could it be that behind all of this is the power given by Su Yang?"
"This person can actually help others break through their shackles and reach the supreme position without being subject to Heavenly Dao Restraint."
"If I can get his guidance, maybe I can abandon my old body, open a new path, and walk my own path."
"Now that your cultivation has reached its bottleneck, the way of heaven is both a support and a shackle."
"But once you leave, it's difficult to maintain the old state."
He looked at the storyteller in green, a complex expression appeared on his brows, and finally sighed softly and said no more words.
He knew clearly that he had no friendship with Su Yang, let alone any trust.
Even if the other party really has the Tongtian method, he will not teach it to him easily.
I'm afraid that Su Yang will never disclose this method in the slightest, and Primordial Lord of Heaven is destined to miss this opportunity in a short time.
