Human Dao Purple Qi, Lei Jun's Sudden Enlightenment

First.

Lei Jun deliberately refined a certain type of Profound Qi instead of allowing Profound Qi to form in disorder.

Boom!

Deep within the Dao Body.

A faint change was taking place.

At this moment.

Lei Jun gained a new understanding.

"Heaven is the Heavenly Dao, and earth is the Earthly Dao. Though I can be compared to Hunyuan, I am still a living being, one of all living things. Naturally, I should belong to the Human Dao!"

"Then the Hongmeng Purple Qi I created is naturally..."

"Human Dao Purple Qi!"

At this moment.

Lei Jun felt somewhat emotional.

Because he had never imagined that after refining the Purple Qi.

His "status" would actually undergo a change.

Before, he had compared himself to the Heavenly Dao.

But now, that was no longer suitable.

Because.

If Lei Jun replaced himself with the Human Dao Purple Qi.

Then he would truly become the Human Dao!

He would control all living beings in the Primordial Wilderness!

Rather than being like before, a second Heavenly Dao,

an existence that had a name but no substance compared to the true Heavenly Dao.

It had to be said.

The Human Dao did not refer to the Human Race.

It broadly referred to all living beings with souls.

A stone, if it had no spirituality,

was merely a dead object.

It fell under the Earthly Dao's control.

But once it gained spirituality,

it might develop consciousness and even become a cultivator.

Therefore.

Once spirituality was born, no matter what it was, it could be called "human."

The Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man had no difference in status.

The Human Dao was not weaker than the Heavenly Dao or the Earthly Dao.

After all.

If there were no living beings between heaven and earth, then the existence of heaven and earth would be meaningless.

Just like the world Lei Jun had opened within his body, most of it was meaningless.

Only the small portion that gave birth to Profound Qi and spiritual energy could bring obvious improvements to Lei Jun's cultivation.

Then the question arose.

Should he become the true Human Dao?

This question.

Was placed before Lei Jun.

And made it difficult for him to choose.

His main concern was that he would be bound by the Primordial Wilderness after becoming the Human Dao.

It would be difficult to attain great freedom ever again.

Sigh~

Deep in the Nine Nether.

Lei Jun let out a sigh.

He discovered that this question was a dead end.

After sighing again.

Lei Jun turned his gaze toward the lands of the Primordial Wilderness.

At this time.

The situation in the Primordial Wilderness had undergone another change.

It could even be said to have changed drastically.

Take the Fox Clan, for example.

A long time ago, they had fought a great battle with the Qilin Clan.

This battle.

Had drawn the attention of more than half of the Primordial Wilderness.

In the end, what no one had expected was that the Fox Clan won!

Shi Qilin was defeated by a mighty expert of the Fox Clan!

On that day.

The pale-purple Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox's Dharma Body blotted out the sky and covered the earth.

Even the Hunyuan Golden Immortal, Shi Qilin,

was no match for her.

If not for a black shadow appearing and rescuing Shi Qilin,

then even if Shi Qilin had not died,

his cultivation realm would likely have fallen.

However.

The Fox Clan had also paid a price. Most of its members had been scattered during the great battle.

They had lost the possibility of contending for supremacy.

This result could not be called bad, but neither could it be called good.

At least they could control their own Fate now.

Otherwise,

they would have had to hand their providence over to the Qilin Clan, with no possibility of ever rising again.

Besides this.

A great battle had also broken out on the Taiyin Star.

On that day.

The Taiyin Star radiated dazzling splendor. The bright, pure moonlight shone to the extreme, illuminating the Primordial Wilderness as if it were daytime!

But this radiance was not only because of the two goddesses on the Taiyin Star.

It was also because.

The Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan had arrived here!

Not only that, but for some reason, they had even fought a great battle here.

In the end, none of them had gained an advantage.

Like the Qilin Clan, they had suffered heavy losses.

The Dragon Clan had originally been somewhat stronger, so it should not have lost.

Or rather, it should have been able to fight the Phoenix Clan to a draw.

It should at least have gained some advantage.

A hard-fought victory was also possible.

But under the radiance of the Moonlight Flowing Essence, the Phoenix Clan cultivators received a boost in strength.

On top of that, the two Taiyin Goddesses had also entered the battle.

Three parties, two factions.

Had actually fought to a draw!

The Phoenix Clan's choice surprised Lei Jun somewhat.

But while others did not understand why the Phoenix Clan had acted this way, Lei Jun understood it all too well.

"I caused the Fox Clan and the Qilin Clan to fight, disrupting the balance between the three clans in order to change the general situation. I never expected the Heavenly Dao to arrange for the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan, as well as Youying and Wangshu, to fight!"

"As a result, all three clans suffered heavy losses and unexpectedly returned to the same level!"

"As for Luo Hou, there is even less to say."

"Hongjun and the others grew stronger, and he actually grew stronger along with them!"

"In the end, I'm afraid one will still be chosen between Hongjun and Luo Hou!"

For a moment.

Lei Jun felt deeply emotional.

"Even my Chess Pieces have become its Chess Pieces."

"The general situation is indeed extraordinarily difficult to change. If I had not cultivated to this point, I might have become one of its Chess Pieces as well!"

"All I can say is, as expected of the Heavenly Dao!"

"Everything is within its calculations!"

After feeling emotional.

Lei Jun was somewhat helpless.

Because if this continued, everything he had done in the Primordial Wilderness, along with all his Chess Pieces, would be erased.

Although that had not happened yet,

under the Heavenly Dao's powerful ability to "correct" things,

everything would return to its original trajectory.

There might be some minute changes, but they could not affect the overall situation.

"Should I really become the Human Dao?"

Lei Jun returned to this question.

Becoming the Human Dao.

Meant using the Hongmeng Purple Qi to replace himself!

But if he did that.

Putting aside whether he could still attain great freedom,

whether he could even preserve his consciousness

would be a major issue.

Perhaps in the future, he would become like the Heavenly Dao, emotionless, desireless, and thoughtless.

If that were truly the case,

what meaning would there be in becoming the Human Dao?

What Lei Jun wanted was not to become the Human Dao, but to use the Purple Qi of the Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man to cause the Primordial Qi to be born.

"Sure enough!"

"Since I am in the Primordial Wilderness, true transcendence is extraordinarily difficult!"

"No matter how I struggle, I am merely drifting within it."

"I may appear to have surfaced, but most of my body is still soaking in the water. I am far from reaching the shore."

"Unless I abandon myself..."

Suddenly.

Lei Jun stopped.

A bold idea appeared in his mind.

"Discard this body."

"Would it be possible to transform my body into the Human Dao?"

"Just as Houtu transformed herself into the Earthly Dao Reincarnation!"

According to the Primordial Wilderness's original trajectory.

There was a Heavenly Dao.

But there was no Earthly Dao.

There was, however, an embryonic form of the Earthly Dao.

Therefore, after Reincarnation was established, it was able to contend with the Heavenly Dao for a time.

But afterward, it became an appendage of the Heavenly Dao.

Still, the Earthly Dao had at least enjoyed a brief period of glory.

By comparison, what about the Human Dao?

It truly had not even left behind a trace.

Originally, there had been a cultivator who could establish the Human Dao.

Unfortunately.

She had become a Heavenly Dao Sage.

It was impossible not to sigh at the irony.

If nothing unexpected happened.

Human Dao would probably have had no chance of being born, just as in the original trajectory.

It would never even have flashed into existence for a moment.

But now.

That unexpected turn had appeared.

From the moment Lei Jun opened up Human Dao Purple Qi within his body, and even from the moment Lei Jun transformed into human form, Human Dao had gained a chance to emerge!

As for why it had never appeared before.

That was because, in even earlier times.

There had only been Fierce Beasts.

Human Dao depended on living beings for its existence.

Fierce Beasts were not living beings. They existed for destruction.

Living beings, on the other hand, were created for creation.

These were two utterly opposite existences!

And Lei Jun...

Could be said to have been among the first living beings in the Primordial Wilderness!

He had emerged even before the Heavenly Dao!

If Lei Jun wanted to transform into Human Dao, no one could have been more suitable.

The only thing that troubled him.

Was that after transforming into Human Dao, he would no longer be able to attain complete freedom.

He could indeed contend with the Heavenly Dao.

But he would lose the possibility of reaching mythology.

However, at this moment.

Lei Jun suddenly realized that the birth of Human Dao did not necessarily require him to sacrifice himself completely.

He could imitate Houtu and sacrifice only his Dao Body and Physical Body!

Although Houtu had merely transformed into Reincarnation.

Rather than the Earthly Dao.

But Houtu's Dao Body and Physical Body, as well as her cultivation realm, were also far inferior to Lei Jun's.

When Houtu transformed into Reincarnation.

What cultivation had she possessed?

At most, the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm.

And Lei Jun?

He surpassed Sages!

These were fundamentally different concepts.

The only problem was that if he transformed into Human Dao using only his Dao Body.

It would be somewhat weak.

Compared to the Heavenly Dao, it would still be a level weaker.

"But that doesn't matter!"

"Even if Human Dao had never emerged, so be it."

"As long as it appears, whether the Heavenly Dao schemes against it or excludes it, nothing can make Human Dao disappear!"

"Rather than the present situation, where it's practically a death struggle?"

Lei Jun could not help sighing with emotion.

The Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man each occupied one aspect and performed one duty. Only then could the Primordial Wilderness remain stable.

If even one was missing.

The end result would always be total destruction.

Even the Heavenly Dao would not escape unscathed.

It would vanish without a trace beneath the Immeasurable Calamity.

The Heavenly Dao.

Was both a "system administrator" and a "security guard." It would eliminate dissidents and remove every unstable factor.

Thus.

Two Heavenly Daos could not exist.

It would become just like the present situation.

Only intensifying internal strife.

The Earthly Dao represented all matter.

It could manage the resources of the Primordial Wilderness while also serving as a "recycling station"—in other words, Reincarnation.

Therefore.

Reincarnation was indispensable.

Otherwise, the "Honghuang System" would become abnormally bloated.

It was precisely for this reason.

That both the Heavenly Dao and the Earthly Dao needed to be born.

At the very least, an embryonic form had to exist.

But that did not mean Human Dao was unimportant.

Because whether it was the Heavenly Dao or the Earthly Dao.

Both could only act according to rules.

They were rigid.

They could only passively face the Immeasurable Calamity.

Human Dao was different. It was equivalent to the various "production tools" installed within the system.

It possessed infinite possibilities!

It could use the matter and energy of Heaven and Earth.

And even the rules themselves.

To create new Dharma Gates.

Ultimately.

It might even break the rules!

And overcome the End of Dharma Immeasurable Calamity!

Therefore.

There was no distinction of superiority or inferiority among the Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

Each had its own function.

They merely occupied different positions. In truth, they depended on one another.

At this moment.

Lei Jun came to a realization.

"If I continue to regard myself as the Heavenly Dao, I'm afraid I'll only sink deeper and deeper. The confrontation will gradually intensify, and in the end, I'll betray my original intention!"

"Until I embark on the path of destruction."

"Either I will be destroyed, or the Heavenly Dao will be destroyed, or even the Primordial Wilderness will be destroyed!"

"If that happens."

Would that not be exactly what Shen Ni wanted?

"That's right!"

"The path I followed before had gone astray!"

"I can become the Heavenly Dao, but two Heavenly Daos won't work!"

"I can completely transform into Human Dao and coexist with the Heavenly Dao! Even if the Dao of Destruction has fused into the Heavenly Dao, it doesn't matter. Human Dao can coexist with the Heavenly Dao!"

"Fortunately, it's still not too late to correct my course."

At this moment.

Lei Jun let out a long breath.

His heart trembled with solemnity.

He was filled with emotion.

"Since I began cultivating, this step must have been the most perilous tribulation!"

"If I can't comprehend it, I'm afraid I'll have no hope of reaching mythology!"

"As expected, the Path of Seeking Dao is fraught with danger!"

"A single wrong step leads straight into an immeasurable abyss!"

"That's why Seeking Dao is also called cultivating the Dao!"
