The Dao Venerable's eyes bled, which, within the Phoenix Dao Realm he created, triggered a violent reaction throughout the heavens and earth.

Deep within the most magnificent central domain of the Phoenix Cry Dao Domain lies a Dao Realm personally created by the Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable.

Within that realm of Dao, two great suns hung on the east and west sides of the sky, which were actually two divine beasts formed from Dao power—the Phoenix and the Phoenix.

At this moment, the two divine beasts' vibrant feathers lost their luster, and the flames enveloping their bodies suddenly weakened.

Spurts of scorching flames and blazing light shot down from the phoenix and the dragon, landing in the lake below and igniting it. The lake blazed like a giant mirror of fire, a dazzling white spectacle.

Boom--

Boom!--

At this moment, the volcanoes within the Phoenix Dao Realm, imbued with Dao power, suddenly erupted, spewing out scalding lava that burned the mountains and forests. Such a tremendous change, shaking the earth and mountains, even caused extremely long cracks to appear in the ground.

The many cultivators living within the Dao Realm were all greatly alarmed by this enormous upheaval.

Some powerful and perceptive cultivators also noticed changes in the Spiritual Qi within the Dao Realm, which seemed to have become slightly more disordered and weaker, causing them to be filled with surprise and uncertainty.

"What's going on? How could the Dao Realm suddenly undergo such a dramatic change?"

"As long as the Dao Venerable is unharmed, the Dao Realm will never be shaken. Could it be that the Dao Venerable..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Immortal Sect.

As hot, molten blood flowed from Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's eyes, his body exuded a domineering, boundless, and intensely boiling aura.

Her expression was extremely solemn. Suddenly, she raised her hands and formed a hand seal. Her hands moved so fast that they resembled a phoenix's beak.

Instantly, within the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm, the little phoenix that had nearly collapsed after colliding fiercely with the Heavenly Dao inside the Immortal King's Mansion suddenly condensed back into a flower shape, though the flame appeared even smaller and weaker.

The fireworks spread their power, quickly stretching into a line of fire that was about to leap out of the Immortal King's Mansion and escape the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.

However, a vast, frenzied, and overwhelming will, as if it had its sights firmly set on this will that dared to offend and collide, swept over it fiercely like a plow sweeping across a cave.

Outside the Immortal Sect.

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's hand seals trembled slightly, and even more blood flowed from his phoenix eyes.

She suddenly took a deep breath, and without hesitation, she borrowed the power of her own Dao Realm, resolutely abandoning most of the power in the Phoenix Dao Fire. Only a small petal escaped the net and drifted across the sky into the magnificent Immortal Sect at the moment when most of the Dao Fire was swallowed up by the mad Heavenly Dao Will.

This tiny petal, formed from a faint condensation of Dao power, was about to completely pass through the magnificent Immortal Sect and return to the outer realm.

Suddenly, a vast blue net appeared between the Immortal Sect.

This is Heavenly Net.

The Heavenly Net, its meshes are wide, yet nothing escapes it.

The moment this net appeared, the intense, frenzied will of Heavenly Dao seemed relentless, determined to penetrate the Immortal Sect and invade the outer realms.

The expression on Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's face, which had remained unchanged until now, suddenly changed. He immediately raised his hand and swiftly grabbed, his phoenix eyes filled with intense majesty.

"Hun Tian! This world is not your heaven!"

As its hand reached out, it instantly condensed in the starry sky into a giant claw that spread scorching and astonishing Dao fire, tearing forward fiercely.

'Boom--'

The entire Immortal Sect was engulfed in flames once more, this time burning so intensely that the pillars crumbled, and the Heavenly Net within was also ignited, tearing open a huge gap the giant claw brought down.

But at the same time, that intense, frenzied will of Heavenly Dao also crashed down.

A deafening explosion suddenly erupted, shattering the entire Immortal Sect into pieces and leaving the giant fiery claw in ruins.

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable groaned, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. His phoenix Daoist robe emitted a bright Daoist radiance as he flashed away.

Countless blinding bolts of lightning, shaped like bizarre tree branches, stretched out in all directions from the shattered Immortal Sect, seemingly tearing the entire starry sky to pieces.

A short while later.

All the lightning and that frenzied will of Heavenly Dao vanished simultaneously.

The Devilish Cultivator Star Array platform in the distance below had already collapsed due to the terrifying shockwave that had just spread.

In the starry sky, only the figure of Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable remained.

Before her, a tattered petal floated, containing only Huang Yun's Nascent Soul Divine Soul.

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's beautiful face was covered with frost, and she exuded a terrifying aura that was terrifying and captivating. Her phoenix eyes were filled with coldness when she raised them.

She, Phoenix Cry, had not looked at anyone with cold indifference for a long time.

But when she truly looks at people with cold eyes, it also means that a cold killing intent has arisen in her passionate heart.

"Great Enlightenment Dao Venerable! Come out! How long are you going to hide? Since you dare to stop me, why are you afraid of me?"

From the depths of the distant starry sky, a ray of starlight and an ancient sigh suddenly drifted over.

"Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable, even though you have completely mastered the Phoenix Dao Fire over the years, the most intense fire in this world can never extinguish the coldness deep within your heart. Do you also harbor murderous intent towards this old man?"

The distant starlight rapidly appeared from afar, gradually revealing the phantom of a giant tree spanning the starry sky.

"You should know why I am stopping you."

"The reason?!"

A flash of fire appeared on Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's pretty face, and the blood at the corners of her mouth and eyes burned away. Her phoenix eyes were filled with burning rage as she spoke.

"Within the Ancient Realm, the five immortals have either perished, gone mad, or slumbered for eternity. Their realms have fallen, they are no longer immortals, and the Great Dao is about to collapse."

If Hun Tian were still the celestial being he once was, I would never have made a move.

But the celestial being who escaped the great calamity in the past transformed into this Hun Tian, at most only ranking among the Dao Venerable. If it weren't for your Great Enlightenment and interference today, how could Hun Tian have awakened so many wills, almost seriously injuring me?"

On the ancient trunk of the giant tree, the face of an old man, aged and wrinkled, appeared, his expression sorrowful.

"Phoenix Cry, your old friend from the Ancient Realm has long since passed away, and all that remains are a few stubborn and restless obsessions."

If one can naturally overcome these attachments, then one will achieve true enlightenment. If one forces oneself to overcome them when one is not capable, one will inevitably suffer negative consequences.

"The affairs of the Ancient Realm are bound by the karma of the Ancient Realm. The calamity to come will be borne by the Ancient Realm itself. If you, as Dao Venerable, were to interfere, wouldn't you be bringing the karma of the Ancient Realm into the New Realm?"

"Even so, it doesn't mean that you, the Great Enlightenment Dao Venerable, can interfere or plot against me."

Phoenix Cry's phoenix eyes were icy cold. Just as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly flickered, and he looked towards the distant deep sky with a solemn expression.

"Vast Sky Dao Venerable, you've been in seclusion for so long, why are you joining in the fun today?"

If we say that the Great Enlightenment Dao Venerable has a long lifespan, this being is the first Kunwu Giant Tree born in the New Realm to achieve enlightenment, and is unfathomable.

Then the Vast Sky Dao Venerable is even more unfathomable, because he was a being who attained the Dao Venerable at the very beginning of the birth of the New Realm. The birth of the New Realm seems to be closely related to him, as he is a being that existed even when the New Realm was still in a state of chaos.

At this moment, a deep and mysterious Daoist voice came from the depths of the sky and entered Phoenix Cry's mind.

Loud sound and strange sound.

This sound could only be truly heard by the Great Enlightenment Dao Venerable and the Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable.

Upon hearing this voice, the coldness in Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable eyes lessened considerably. He glanced back at the Heavenly Immortal Realm Immortal Sect, which had completely collapsed and was gradually disappearing, shook his head, and let go of the unrealistic obsession he held for that person.

The demon is rampant, domineering, extreme, and easily angered.

The Buddha Guai, treacherous, suspicious, and indecisive.

Ultimately, it wasn't that person; the grand ambitions of the past are unlikely to be fulfilled.

Within the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Large areas of mountains collapsed, the earth cracked, and some once lush forests are now just withered trees standing thin and weak, their leaves sparse, making a desolate sound in the wind.

The desert where the Immortal King's Mansion once stood has now become a fiery red ocean of lava, flowing slowly and emitting hissing and gurgling sounds, with the heat of the lava permeating the air.

The Immortal King's Mansion was like a small island situated in a sea of lava, its top shrouded in heavy, terrifying tribulation clouds, within which flashes of frenzied Thunderbolt Arc.

A powerful and frenzied Heavenly Dao Will still lingers within the mansion, spreading waves of terrifying aura that shakes the very foundations of all directions.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh--

Spiritual Light swiftly flew in from all directions.

Gradually, they gathered together, floating in mid-air, revealing the figures of many Nascent Soul True Lord such as Su Yan Yan, Xuan Chenxiao, and Qiao Zhaoxian.

Everyone paled upon seeing the scene transformed into a world-ending mass of magma.

Especially when they felt the terrifying Daoist energy emanating from the air, everyone felt as if their clothes were about to catch fire, their skin was burning, and their spirits were on the verge of going mad at any moment.

"Junior Brother."

Su Yan Yan's eyes flashed rapidly. She could no longer sense Chen Dengming's presence, and she felt intensely anxious. She wanted to approach the Immortal King's Mansion, but Xuan Chenxiao immediately stopped her.

"Junior Sister Su, don't act impulsively."

Xuan Chenxiao frowned. "This place is already filled with the will of the mad Heavenly Dao, and it is also haunted by High Antiquity calamity power. It is fraught with danger and must not be provoked any further."

Otherwise, even if there are survivors in the Immortal King's Mansion, their chances of survival are slim.

After hearing what Xuan Chenxiao said, Su Yan Yan quickly calmed down. Although she was still extremely worried, she knew that she should not act rashly no matter how anxious she was.

Just when everyone was at a loss, a faint voice suddenly echoed in the minds of Xuan Chenxiao, Su Yan Yan, and Qiao Zhaoxian.

"I am still unharmed, but Fellow Daoist Lu has sacrificed himself, and Nephew Disciple Chen's condition is currently unknown. You must not approach the Immortal King's Mansion rashly, otherwise even I will find it difficult to escape."

"The First Ancestor."

"Senior Qu!"

Xuan Chenxiao and Qiao Zhaoxian were both invigorated, but then their hearts sank again. They hadn't expected the situation to be so dire. Even someone as powerful as Longevity Dao Lord had sacrificed himself, and their own ancestor was now struggling to escape.

Su Yan Yan's pretty face changed instantly, her beautiful eyes became misty and her expression was sorrowful. When she thought of her First Ancestor Lu Xiucheng sacrificing himself and her junior Junior Brother Chen, who was capable of shouldering great responsibilities, being missing and dying, she was overcome with grief and could not help but burst into tears.

"Old Chen" Qiao Zhaoxian blankly into the Immortal King's Mansion, and couldn't help but sigh with sorrow. He could only silently pray in his heart that good people would be blessed by heaven.

Just then, a deer's cry suddenly came from behind.

The moment everyone turned around, they saw the Giant Deer Mage Robe, burned black and tattered, rushing towards them, with several Storage Bag hanging from its belt.

In a daze, everyone thought they were seeing Chen Dengming's figure flying over.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that it was merely an empty robe possessing only a spirit.

Xuan Chenxiao was about to stop the giant deer from approaching the Immortal King's Mansion when, unexpectedly, the giant deer was also sentient. After flying closer, it glanced at everyone, its evil deer eyes staring at the Immortal King's Mansion, sniffing and shaking its head, as if it was also sighing with emotion.

Qiao Zhaoxian at the dejected Su Yan Yan and comforted her, "Su Shijie, look, Old Chen's robe has flown back on its own. This robe is spiritual, so I think Old Chen is definitely alright; he's just temporarily out of contact."

As soon as he finished speaking, Julu snorted, glared at Qiao Zhaoxian with disdain, gestured with his grotesquely burned muscles, waved his hand, shook his head, sighed, and left with his hands behind his back, his figure appearing somewhat desolate for a moment.

"What do you mean?" Qiao Zhaoxian there, stunned.

Su Yan Yan sighed, "It said that Junior Brother Chen sent it away in a moment of crisis, and it almost got burned to death. Junior Brother Chen is probably in grave danger, and it will have to find a new owner again."

Upon hearing this, everyone was at a loss for words, their hearts heavy.

This battle was truly too brutal.

Especially for the Longevity Sect, if both the Longevity Dao Lord and the Longevity Sect Leader were to perish, the Longevity Sect would likely fall from being a top-tier sect to an ordinary one in an instant.

They know about these sacrifices made, and they are willing to appreciate and remember them.

But how many people in the Four Seas Four Regions know this, and are willing to be grateful?

Years later, when the Longevity Sect had completely declined and could no longer bear the weight of its great name, how many cultivators would still remember the once-powerful Longevity Dao Lord, or the once-dominant Longevity Sect Leader who could slay enemy Nascent Soul Nascent Soul as easily as cutting melons and vegetables?

All that is gone.

"I will stay here and wait for some time."

After a moment, Su Yan Yan spoke, and her figure flew towards the distant desert area with lava.

She could only wait and see how things went, because with such a huge change, the Longevity Sect was leaderless and needed to consolidate its foundation immediately.

Even though she was heartbroken, she didn't have much time to grieve; she needed to immediately join Xing Huiguang in taking charge of the overall situation.

"Well, I guess I'll stay here for a while longer."

Qiao Zhaoxian looked at Xuan Chenxiao, and seeing that he nodded in agreement, he immediately felt relieved.

Seeing this, the other cultivators offered words of comfort and then bowed deeply in the direction of the Immortal King's Mansion.

"Sect Leader Chen, we've become friends through a fight. I hope you'll be blessed by heaven. I'll find an auspicious spot nearby and bury myself there, waiting for you to emerge."

After bowing, Lou Zhen sighed and left in a huff.

The others also departed, each with their own plans and tasks to carry out within the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Only the couple with the Gourd Twin Swords from Gourd Sword Island were left behind by Xuan Chenxiao.

Inside the Immortal King's Mansion, where the power of calamity and the mad will of Heavenly Dao were densely packed.

A massive, raging mass of blood, imbued with a frenzied will, floated silently where the blood pool had been before.

The blood clot seemed to have solidified into crimson amber, within which was sealed a Black Lotus Platform and two palaces shimmering with light, enveloped by a cluster of golden flames.

The overwhelming and ferocious power of heaven suppressed the blood mass here.

Heavy tribulation clouds swirled around the blood mass, like shackles, preventing the Demon Primordial Spirit and Dao power, as well as the two Dao palaces of the Human Immortal, from escaping.

Heavenly Fortune Hall behind the blood clot, Qu Shenzong cautiously observed this scene with his Heavenly Eye, a look of shock appearing in his eyes.

"This is one of the most powerful Dao Intent Divine Ability of the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Prison. Nephew Disciple Chen is in trouble now; he's been caught in the crossfire."

The suddenly awakened, crazed Heavenly Dao imprisoned all the intruders in the Heavenly Prison.

The Demon Lord's Primordial Spirit power goes without saying. His initial attempt to evade the suppression of the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm and the attention of the Heavenly Dao by using the Heavenly Fortune Hong Lotus was opportunistic and a deception of the blindness of Heaven.

This trick was immediately seen through after the Heavenly Dao was stimulated to awaken most of its will, and it was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison.

Ultimately, both the Demon Lord's Primordial Spirit power and the Heavenly Fortune Hong Lotus will be gradually absorbed by the Heavenly Prison, and with the self-purification of the Mad Heavenly Dao, they will be transformed into pure Immortal Celestial Dao Power and merge with it.

This process is exactly the same as the process after Dao Integration Great Power dies; in the end, the power returns to its own Dao or is absorbed by other Daos and becomes nourishment.

Ultimately, all the paths to the extreme boil down to nothing more than the most primal act of mutual devouring and self-strengthening.

However, Chen Dengming was also caught up in the mess this time, unexpectedly drawn into the Heavenly Prison. He was judged by the Mad Heavenly Dao as an intruder and imprisoned, slowly about to be devoured.

This is because both the Human and Immortal Palaces and the Phoenix Dao Fire that devoured them belong to the Outer Dao forces.

Although Chen Dengming between these two Outer Dao forces, was indeed a successor of the Heavenly Immortal Way, his power was far too small compared to the former two. He was swallowed up by the Mad Heavenly Dao Path, which was both unjust and tragic.

When Qu Shenzong realized the situation, he felt anxious but also somewhat at a loss.

Even as a pure inheritor of the Heavenly Immortal Way, capable of mobilizing the three Heavenly Immortal Hall, he dared not rashly disturb the Heavenly Prison and the still not completely asleep, mad Heavenly Dao.

Heavenly Dao itself has gone mad; if it really gets ruthless, it might even attack itself. His provocation at this moment will only worsen the situation.
