"Kill!"

Shen Ni spoke again.

"Whether you're the Heavenly Dao or anything else, prepare to face this venerable one's wrath!"

"Die!"

Whoosh!

In an instant, a long crimson line appeared across the heavens and earth, as if cleaving them in two. Carrying a terrifying aura of slaughter, it shot straight at Lei Jun.

And yet,

the Blood Thread came and went in a flash.

When it vanished, the heavens and earth returned to calm.

And Lei Jun was—completely unharmed?

"Hm?"

Even Shen Ni was astonished now.

How had an attack that should have killed him missed?

"You... dodged it?"

"Didn't... I?"

"Hm?"

For a moment, the two giants of the Primordial Wilderness were both stunned.

Wait!

Lei Jun quickly reacted and noticed that the Twelve-Grade Chaos Green Lotus floating in midair had dimmed considerably.

"Did it block that attack for me?"

"Why?"

Lei Jun was baffled.

But an idea immediately came to him.

The next second,

he opened the Small World within his body and drew the Chaos Green Lotus inside.

Then, using supreme magic power, he sent it into the Yellow Court of his Middle Dantian.

Lei Jun immediately saw a Green Lotus slowly blooming within his Middle Dantian, taking root there for good.

Dao Heart Plants Green Lotus!

Lei Jun was shaken.

He hadn't expected such a connection.

Earlier, he had planted the World Seed in his Lower Dantian. Now, a Chaos Green Lotus had appeared in the Yellow Court of his Middle Dantian.

If he could plant a top-grade Innate Spirit Root in the Purple Mansion of his Upper Dantian as well,

what would that look like?!

Lei Jun could hardly wait to find out.

"This lotus was sealed by this venerable one for many years. It was long since corrupted by the baleful energy and stripped of its Origin. How can you use it?"

Shen Ni asked coldly.

How?

Lei Jun looked at Shen Ni, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"This is the Source of Blessing I've accumulated over hundreds of Eons by constantly doing good deeds for the Primordial Wilderness. The cause was planted in the past, and now it bears fruit. This is the Heavenly Dao rewarding me!"

"Shen Ni, you don't know what the Source of Blessing is, do you?"

"Of course you don't! Your Fierce Beast Race only knows how to destroy, not build. How could you know what it means to do good?"

Reward? Source of Blessing?

What nonsense was this?

Shen Ni's fury blazed.

In his eyes, he had schemed for thousands of Eons, only to have it all ruined in a single day. He would make the man before him pay for this Karma!

At that moment, Shen Ni was both shocked and furious.

He attacked again.

In an instant, red light appeared once more.

Blood Threads, condensed from the aura of slaughter, appeared one after another, surrounding Lei Jun.

Shen Ni had put all his strength into this strike.

But

he still couldn't hurt Lei Jun.

Boom!

The Dao Heart Azure Lotus swayed, unleashing surging Chaotic Qi.

In an instant, it devoured every Blood Thread, turning everything into Chaos and the Void.

With this ability, Lei Jun no longer had to cower as he had before.

Lei Jun was delighted.

"Wonderful!"

"This is a Great Fortune! A tremendous opportunity!"

"I've gained a Supreme Treasure outright!"

"The Source of Blessing really is something!"

"Hahahaha!"

Lei Jun was overjoyed.

"You dare mock this venerable one!"

"Die!"

Shen Ni was enraged.

He stopped using Blood Threads and lunged straight at Lei Jun, hoping to use his formidable Physical Body to fight him at close quarters.

"Shen Ni, you and I are destined to fight!"

"But not today."

With that, Lei Jun transformed into a world and fled at an inconceivable speed.

At the same time, the Dao Flower within him bloomed, and his Past Body appeared, severing all traces of the past. Even Shen Ni could no longer find him.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

In the end, the mighty Beast Emperor could only roar at the sky in helpless rage.

Several more Eons passed in the blink of an eye.

At that moment,

Lei Jun was in a place filled with Chaos, a completely empty expanse.

Looking up, he couldn't see its edge.

Countless stars glittered, connected by boundless power to form dazzling constellations.

This was the Zhou Tian Star Sea!

"Although I haven't traveled across all of the Primordial Wilderness, I've been to plenty of places."

"Now that Shen Ni has awakened, I should keep my distance for a while."

"This time, I'll explore the Zhou Tian Star Sea!"

Lei Jun was full of confidence.

The next moment, he transformed into a world and charged into the Star Sea at top speed.

Whoosh!

But as soon as he entered the Star Sea, Martial General Gale swept toward him, seeming intent on tearing his Physical Body apart and turning him into nourishment for the starry sky.

However, this little gale was no threat to Lei Jun, who had reached the Quasi-Saint realm.

His Physical Body alone was enough to withstand it with ease.

Lei Jun swept out his Divine Sense, taking in countless stars. But there were far too many for even him to count.

After examining them further, he finally understood what "Myriad Heavens" meant.

Every star here was formed from countless worlds collapsing in on themselves!

Even the tiniest speck on one contained immeasurable worlds.

A single star could be called a heaven of its own!

That was how the Myriad Heavens Star Sea got its name.

"According to legend, the Myriad Heavens Star Sea was formed from Great God Pangu's acupoints. These stars were once individual Small Worlds within his body!"

"Then it seems my Dao is correct."

"Turning the particles throughout my body into worlds may not compare to Great God Pangu's Dao, and I may not be able to elevate every Particle World into a Great Thousand World, but it will be enough for me to roam the heavens and dominate my own corner of the world!"

The path Lei Jun followed was the Dao of Worlds.

Using the acupoints in his body, he would transform them into countless worlds.

This aligned with Pangu's Dao!

It also gave Lei Jun a great deal of confidence.

Several more Eons passed in the blink of an eye.

Lei Jun had observed the entire Star Sea and traveled across the endless starry sky. He had begun to understand.

On a collapsed and ruined star,

Lei Jun sat cross-legged.

"The future is ever-changing. Every action affects it. Perhaps a single thought is enough to change the future."

"The future holds limitless possibilities. How can I sever my Future Body?"

Lei Jun was lost in thought.

He had gained some insight, but he had also hit a bottleneck.

Once he resolved the doubts in his heart, he would break through the bottleneck and reach an entirely new level of strength.

By then, even Beast Emperor Shen Ni would be no match for him!

As he traveled through the Star Sea, Lei Jun pondered how to sever his Future Body.

Time passed slowly.

One Eon, two Eons...

Ten Eons!

Thirty Eons!

In the blink of an eye,

a hundred Eons passed.

Throughout this long stretch of time, Lei Jun sat motionless in the Star Sea like a withered tree, going nowhere.

He did not enter seclusion.

He simply kept his eyes open, watching the stars of the Myriad Heavens and the shifting, ever-changing Star Sea.

In a haze,

Lei Jun grasped that fleeting opportunity.

"No matter how many stars there are or how vast the Myriad Heavens may be, they cannot escape the Main Star's orbit."

"Whether it's a Small Thousand World, a Middle Thousand World, or a Great Thousand World, what does it matter how vast a world is? It all evolved from Chaos. Chaos is the center of heaven and earth!"

"Every Dharma Gate under heaven may cultivate spiritual energy, Devil Dao, magic, or even faith... but in the end, they all point to the Origin of the Great Dao!"

"All methods lead to one. Who cares how many possible futures there are!"

"The Origin of the Great Dao is the only future!"

After more than a hundred Eons, Lei Jun had finally gained enlightenment.

"My future... must be the one and only in heaven and earth! I will Prove the Dao and become a Dao Saint!"

At that moment,

Lei Jun severed his Future Body!
