Try It and You'll Know
The key to breaking through to the Four-step Dao Lord is the breakthrough of the Dao itself. After the breakthrough of the Dao, the transformation of Divine Power and Dharma Power is not complicated.
As endless energy poured in, Zhou Zheng's Divine Body and Dharma Power quickly completed their transformation.
"The Heart World expands!"
Zhou Zheng's consciousness entered the illusory Heart World located between his eyebrows, and moved with his thoughts.
Rumble!
Located at the center of the Heart World, the towering tower representing the Ultimate Space-Time Dao began to rise again with a rumbling sound, and the Heart World began to expand wildly as a result.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
Under Zhou Zheng's control, endless Chaos Crystal were transformed into Chaos Power and poured into the Heart World, causing the Heart World to expand at an increasingly rapid pace.
After an unknown amount of time, the growth of the Heart World finally reached its limit once again.
"With a single thought, it could probably cover hundreds of territories!" Zhou Zheng exclaimed in amazement as he felt his own Heart World.
This encompasses hundreds of territories, which is not just the combined area of hundreds of Da Mo Domain. It should be noted that there are often large areas of Void between adjacent territories. This is why it may take trillions of years for an ordinary World Realm to travel to an adjacent territory by air alone.
A single thought can cover hundreds of territories, and its true scope may be billions of times larger than a single Da Mo Domain. One can imagine how terrifying this Heart World is.
"The Ultimate Dao Lord is not only powerful in 'Dao,' but also possesses a powerful trump card in his Heart World!" Zhou Zheng thought to himself.
While Heart World at the peak Dao Lord level is relatively common, Heart World at the Holy City Lord level? That's extremely rare!
Because apart from the Ultimate Dao Lord, such Heart World often requires Heaven-Defying Dao Lord to successfully Dao Merge in order to be born, and how low is the probability of Heaven-Defying Dao Lord successfully Dao Merge? Not to mention the Dao Merge with the flow of Heartforce!
Therefore, cultivators who possess Heart World at the Holy City Lord Level are extremely rare.
Needless to say, the Ultimate Dao is perfectly balanced, making it the most suitable support for the Heart World. Once Zhou Zheng breaks through, his level of the path is already at the top of the level of the Holy City Lord, Heart World is naturally the most top-level among the Heart World at the level of the Holy City Lord.
At this moment, Zhou Zheng's Heart World, even if it is not as powerful as the Flame Dragon Dominator of the Heartforce Flow, is probably only half a step behind.
"From now on, I can finally stand firm in the Yan Long Domain!" This thought flashed through Zhou Zheng's mind, and then he made a move.
Wow!
Six Destiny Divine Weapon of his destiny appeared before him.
Zhou Zheng grabbed the six natal Destiny Divine Weapon in turn and poured the Ultimate Space-Time Dao of the fourth level into them.
In an instant—
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
The six Destiny Divine Weapon all emitted hissing sounds, and terrifying power was constantly brewing within them.
It took almost half a day for the transformation of the six divine weapons to finally subside.
"Although they haven't yet transformed into Universe Treasure, they are definitely the most terrifying divine weapons below Universe Treasure. Each one even surpasses Dao Lord Xiaomeng's Blood Blade!" Zhou Zheng felt the powerful Origin within the six pitch-black longswords and nodded in satisfaction.
After putting away his six natal Destiny Divine Weapon, Zhou Zheng finally stood up and left the area covered by the Time Acceleration of the Xuan Ling's Wings.
A moment later, Zhou Zheng arrived near the Xis Race warship located at the source of this Star River. At this time, Ji Ning and the Sect Master Jiu Chen were still honing their skills here.
"Haha, Dao Lord Cheng Tian, you've finally emerged from seclusion!" The Sect Master Jiu Chen burst into laughter upon seeing Zhou Zheng's figure.
Although 80,000 years is a very short time, compared to the time the two of them were in seclusion, Zhou Zheng's seclusion time was indeed far too long.
However, as soon as Zhou Zheng landed, the Sect Master Jiu Chen seemed to have discovered something. His laughter stopped abruptly, and a look of surprise and doubt appeared on his face.
Zhou Zheng's breakthrough mainly used the energy of the Chaos Crystal, which made very little noise, so neither Ji Ning nor Sect Master Jiu Chen noticed anything unusual before.
But as soon as Zhou Zheng flew over, the Sect Master Jiu Chen immediately sensed something was wrong.
Zhou Zheng's Divine Body aura is now far too powerful, much stronger than before.
At this moment, Ji Ning also temporarily withdrew from the siege of several Silver-robed Dao Lord of the Xis Race.
"Master, your aura?"
A look of shock appeared on Ji Ning's face. Unlike the Sect Master Jiu Chen's surprise and doubt, Ji Ning was different. In an instant, he thought of a possibility.
"Yes, I've broken through!"
Zhou Zheng nodded slightly; he did not deliberately hide it from the Sect Master Jiu Chen.
The exposure of the Four-step Dao Lord of the Ultimate Dao was only a matter of time, and Zhou Zheng also believed that the Sect Master Jiu Chen would not reveal anything casually.
Of course, most importantly, Zhou Zheng was no longer afraid of any challenge at this moment.
"He has indeed broken through!" Ji Ning's face showed a complex expression.
On this path, the first three steps were not much different from those of other Dao Lord. He and his master were hidden among the Dao Lord and were not particularly noticeable.
But now?
Zhou Zheng took the first step, which already surpasses the level of any Dao Lord in the Endless Territory.
"You broke through?"
The Sect Master Jiu Chen looked at the master and disciple with some confusion, and then asked, "Dao Lord Cheng Tian, what secret technique have you been practicing?"
"Haha, it's not a secret technique! I was actually only Three-step Dao Lord before!" Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Now that I've broken through, I'm Four-step Dao Lord!"
"How could that be? Dao Lord Cheng Tian, you must be joking!" The Sect Master Jiu Chen shook his head like a rattle drum.
Previously, Zhou Zheng had fought head-on with the City Lord Feixue, one of the Eight Great Sacred City Lords, and was only Three-step Dao Lord.
Where will City Lord Feixue's face be?
"Jiu Chen, it's true!" Ji Ning said solemnly, "This is no small matter, you mustn't tell anyone!"
"Beiming, even you say that?" The Sect Master Jiu Chen looked at Ji Ning, and he was truly dumbfounded.
On one hand, reason told the Sect Master Jiu Chen that this was simply impossible; on the other hand, the Sect Master Jiu Chen knew Ji Ning very well and knew that Ji Ning would not easily joke about such a thing.
"What exactly happened?" The Sect Master Jiu Chen felt that even he, peak Dao Lord, was struggling to keep up with the situation.
However, neither Ji Ning nor Zhou Zheng explained the matter to the Sect Master Jiu Chen, as it was not easy to explain.
"Master, how does the Four-step Dao Lord feel?" Ji Ning looked at Zhou Zheng. Although he was still far from Ultimate Dao of the Fourth Step, he had long been extremely curious about it.
"It must be very powerful, but I can't quite describe it!"
Zhou Zheng spoke, his gaze drifted toward the distant Xis Race warship.
"However, we'll find out once we try!" Zhou Zheng said with a smile. Having just broken through, he wanted to try out many of the techniques, and there was no more suitable opponent than this Xis Race team.
