"From this day forward, there will be no sentient being in the Three Realms who will not be subject to reincarnation."

In just a few breaths, Li Boyang's voice resounded throughout the Three Realms and Six Paths.

Whether in the mortal world, the Netherworld, or the Six Desire Heavens, all the powerful beings at the level of Heavenly Deity and above widened their eyes in unison.

Unfortunately, due to the difference in strength and perspective, the players couldn't immediately realize what had happened.

Only those Dao Proving One from other dimensions, or Great Heavenly Deity of this era like the Netherworld Lord, can clearly see the evolution of the Great Sovereign Heaven.

"The Three Realms? The Heavens?"

The Lord of Mount Tai slowly emerged from Mount Tai, gazing in astonishment at the edge of a world invisible to ordinary people.

The same thing happened almost simultaneously to the Great Emperor of Fengdu in the Yin World.

However, Chi's expression was much calmer.

As an incarnation of Li Boyang, Chi even took the initiative to help the Primordial Beginning Heavenly Demon stabilize the still-forming Three Realms system.

"Call!"

Seeing this, the true form of the Lord of Mount Tai —the Yin Son of Heaven Netherworld Lord —opened his eyes again.

Standing at a higher dimension, the Netherworld Lord, witnessing this Dao Proving of the Dao that was in no way inferior to the "formation of the Heavenly Dao," could hardly conceal the shock in his heart outside the original Yin and Yang realms.

A world caught in the middle, somewhere between the two, is slowly taking shape.

That was the "Heavenly Realm," which originated from the Great Sovereign Heaven, a new world specifically designed to accommodate Celestial Person and gods.

The three elements subtly form a mutually reinforcing dynamic, together constituting a vast and delicate cycle.

This cycle is centered on the three souls of Heaven, Earth, and Man, which are interconnected and influence each other.

To be honest, ever since Li Boyang established the Six Paths of Reincarnation System, how to deal with those gods who were unwilling to be reincarnated has become a major problem. The original approach of the Great Emperor of Fengdu was to suppress them under the Nine Springs and Nine Prisons, gradually wearing away their resentment and anger.

However, this was destined to be only a temporary measure.

After all, those Ghost God are different from ordinary ghosts; even after they die, they are still favored by the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

They wanted to wear down the anger and resentment in the pools.

The time required during this period is far greater than that of ordinary ghosts.

At the current rate of reincarnation, often before one Ghost God or deity can be reincarnated, ten or more Ghost God are imprisoned.

If this continues, the Nine Springs Nine Prisons will eventually be full, and the gathering of Ghost God will sooner or later cause a great calamity.

Not to mention, the above situations are only the result of Ghost God being unwilling to reincarnate.

As the Way of the Celestial Person becomes more widespread and the methods of cultivation become more complete, there will be more cultivators who practice the Method of the Celestial Person than these Ghost God. This is because these Celestial Person are not ghosts and Ghost God rely solely on talent.

Leaving aside later practitioners, the Celestial Person of this era, under Li Boyang's tutelage, generally possessed sound theories, extensive knowledge, and profound wisdom.

Once these guys grow up, they'll be even more troublesome than Ghost God.

Moreover, they are different from those Ghost God and spirits who are filled with resentment and have committed unforgivable sins.

If these practitioners are unwilling to enter the cycle of reincarnation simply because they seek immortality, should they also be imprisoned in the Nine Prisons and Nine Springs?

Under these circumstances, the birth of the Heavenly Realm became the best "refuge".

Those Celestial Person and gods who do not wish to enter the cycle of reincarnation after death, all of you, get out of here and go to the Heavenly Realm.

Only when one has severed all desires of the five senses and is willing to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation can one go to the Netherworld to be reborn.

Compared to forcibly suppressing these dangerous elements in Nine Springs Nine Prisons, this laissez-faire approach is clearly much wiser.

Because the Netherworld Lord clearly saw that this newly born Heavenly Realm was deliberately separated from the Yin and Yang Realms in terms of time sequence.

The Heaven of the Four Heavenly Kings measures a day and night as equal to fifty years in the human realm, and their lifespan is five hundred years.

The "Trayastrimsa Heaven" takes one day and night as long as one hundred years in the human world, and has a lifespan of one thousand years.

The Yama Heaven measures a day and night in the human realm as two hundred years, and has a lifespan of two thousand years.

The Tushita Heaven measures a day and night as four hundred years in the human realm, and its inhabitants live for four thousand years.

The "Heaven of Enjoyment of Emanations" considered eight hundred years as one day and night in the human world, and his lifespan was eight thousand years.

This is truly a day in heaven equal to a hundred years on earth; the exaggeration of this time ratio is simply astonishing.

Such a long time scale, coupled with the fact that dreams can almost come true in the Heavenly Realm...

Once future cultivators travel to the Heavenly Realm, they will be able to minimize the interference and damage that the Pools cause to the Cycle of Reincarnation.

If even this cannot dispel the obsessions of the gods and Celestial Person, and make them willingly reincarnate, then...

Above these five heavens, there is Sixth Heaven — the Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations.

Those who insist on exploiting loopholes in the reincarnation system and insist on being reborn at their own discretion will all enter the Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations.

Even the Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations couldn't do anything to them.

That can only mean that, at least on a spiritual level, they have reached the realm of Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness, Primordial Spirit is immortal.

Such a being with such a steadfast Dao Heart is destined to become Great Heavenly Deity in the future.

Since that's the case, why not let them reincarnate on their own and choose their own reincarnation?

"The Three Realms? The Six Desire Heavens?"

Listening to the sounds around her, Chang'e on the Great Yin Star stared in astonishment as she looked down at the mortal realm below.

Even Chang'e couldn't have imagined that the Dao Ancestor would evolve his second Dao Path in such a way.

In a world where dreams can come true...

In a spacetime where the proportions of time are exaggerated to an absurd degree...

If one didn't know beforehand that this was a "prison" arranged by the Dao Ancestor for Celestial Person and gods, who would refuse a world where their wishes could be fulfilled? Regardless of how the Heavenly Realm would develop in later generations.

At least for now, the Heavenly Realm is merely a means for the Dao Ancestor to reduce the damage that the gods and Celestial Person cause to the Six Paths of Reincarnation System. "The Six Desire Heavens? How truly aptly named!"

Amazed, Boshun even forgot his previous fear; he truly witnessed the creation of the Opening Heaven and Earth.

The world returned to chaos, with earth, fire, water, and wind raging...

All Buddhas and demon kings fell from their respective heavens, and endless desires manifested themselves.

In this Heavenly Realm the Refining Falsehood into Reality and the dreamlike illusion is so profound, even saints cannot help but become captivated by it.

Moreover, these are Buddhas and demon kings who are manifestations of desire.

Then, the Buddhas manifested countless holy Buddha lands, expounding Buddhist scriptures and explaining Buddhist principles, guiding all beings to great awakening and enlightenment.

Those demon kings then created earthly paradises, paved with gold and jade and adorned with brocade, taking extravagance and debauchery to the extreme.

What you desire, you will achieve; decadent music spreads throughout the world.

Even a steadfast Dao Proving One like Boshun, with a firm Dao Heart, vaguely saw the path he sought spanning all of time and space—past, present, and future.

That is a truly eternal and unchanging supreme realm.

Most importantly, Boshun did not merely see this possibility.

As Chi's thoughts changed, this only area that had not yet evolved also officially began to evolve.

That is the Dao of the Heavenly Demon that Boshun pursued, the true "Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations."

As the highest of the Six Desire Heavens, the "Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations" is the manifestation of Boshun's Dao Path and a true and undeniable embodiment of the fruit of enlightenment. "Is this Sixth Heaven... real or illusory?"

Unable to conceal his shock and greed, the fire in the Eight Trigrams Furnace surged rapidly in response to Boshun's desires.

Reason tells Chi that the "Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations" is merely an illusion created by Li Boyang using the "Dao of Primordial Beginning." However, everything he sees contradicts Boshun's view.

Following his inner instincts, Boshun invoked the power of Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations, and unsurprisingly discovered that this power was real. He had Dao Proving, and moreover, he had attained the "Dao of the Heavenly Demon."

This Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations is the object of Boshun's Dao Proving, and the pool can even project and reflect it into the present world.

But that's where the problem lies.

Mara Dao Proving, who had successfully attained Boshun, was trapped in the Six Desire Heavens, and trapped in the "Dao of Primordial Beginning" evolved by Li Boyang.

One can attain enlightenment through the hands of others; their path is my path.

This was originally Boshun's specialty, but now it has become Li Boyang's method of imprisoning him in the pool.

Moreover, from now on, all those Dao Proving One in the Heavenly Realm will have their Dao developed into a part of the "Dao of Primordial Beginning." To say that they are subject to Li Boyang's control might be an exaggeration.

However, it is impossible to break free from the limitations of the "Dao of Primordial Beginning" without paying a price.

This is a place of Dao Proving where wishes come true, but it is also a nightmare for all those Dao Proving One try to take shortcuts.

"Whether it's true freedom or the Freedom Through Others' Transformations, it's all just a dream of practicing the false to make it real..."

"If you believe it to be true, then it is true."

"In this respect, you are far inferior to Lao Zhuang, because they never bothered with the distinction between truth and falsehood."
