The second choice was to preserve the Merit and refrain from attaining the Dao for the time being.
Whether he pursued Three Corpses Unity or sought Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, both could be left for future consideration.
Attaining the Dao through Three Corpses Unity differed little from the first choice. After becoming a saint, his combat strength would be somewhat greater, but there would be no qualitative leap.
Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, on the other hand, was entirely different. It was another path beyond the Heavenly Dao and the Primordial Wilderness.
Yang Mei himself was one of the remnants of the Chaos Gods. During the Heaven-Opening Tribulation, he had been crippled by Pangu and forced to enter the Primordial Wilderness for re cultivation.
To transcend, he had to repay the karmic debt of using the Primordial Wilderness as a precious land for re cultivation.
Thus, Yang Mei helped Hongjun secure the position of the Heavenly Dao's Spokesperson.
Perhaps Yin Yang Lao Zu and Qiankun Lao Zu, who had been talked into joining the siege against Luo Hou, had shared the same purpose.
However, Yin Yang Lao Zu and Qiankun Lao Zu had both fallen beneath Luo Hou's Godslaying Spear, leaving no future prospects whatsoever.
After Hongjun merged with the Dao, he represented the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial Wilderness. The karmic debts Hongjun owed were all repaid by Heavenly Dao Hongjun.
The Merit loaned out to bring about Western Prosperity had likewise been bestowed by the Heavenly Dao.
Yang Mei had taken part in the Demonic Dao War and supported Hongjun's victory, which was why Heavenly Dao Hongjun existed today.
Because he had contributed to the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao, his karmic debt had been offset. He and the Primordial Wilderness owed each other nothing.
