The authority of a rule was born within the True Immortal Heir's Great Dao!
This was the limit of a rule branch within the Law-Annihilation Great Dao, and an extraordinarily important branch at that. It accounted for at least several dozenths of the Great Dao's breadth, with the potential to widen further.
Its only shortcoming was its lack of depth. After all, this was an entirely new path.
In an instant, using the authority of the Law-Annihilation Great Dao's rule branch as his starting point, Jiang Ding completed the transformation of his soul, magic power, and Dharma body as one!
His accumulated foundations were too deep!
For many Supremes, this transformation was a step through nine deaths for one chance at life. For him, it flowed as naturally as water reaching its channel. Without a single setback, the entire transformation was complete in an instant.
At that moment, Jiang Ding's Dharma body became a body born of the Law-Annihilation Great Dao. His magic power and soul were likewise born of it, without the slightest part at odds with it.
The many Dao bodies and divine bodies possessed by prodigies of the mortal world from birth were not worth mentioning now.
Boom!
Above the nine heavens, thunder amassed boundless power.
From within the authority of thunderous destruction, an azure-purple thunderbolt cloaked in a web of rules crashed down.
This thunder was terrifying even to Supremes. It was the power with which the Heavenly Dao destroyed and executed anomalies in the mortal world. The boundless cosmic starscape did not permit too many beings to advance, lest they destroy the ecology of the Immortal-Dao Universe.
This was thunder bearing the authority of a rule branch that slew Supremes!
No being below the level of Supreme had any chance of blocking it and surviving.
