Hundred Lands Mountain Range, Yunmeng Jade Pool Realm.

"You just agreed to Hao Jun's conditions so easily?"

Lying lazily on a tree branch, Xiluo yawned deeply and asked.

Several days had passed since Xiluo woke up from her dream, but she was still processing what she had learned from it.

It must be admitted that the benefits this dream brought to Xiluo were greater than all the previous dreams combined.

Those previous dreams, at best, only added a few more names and a few more gods to the [Jade Pool Heavenly Book].

But this dream brought Xiluo to the threshold of Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness.

She was just one step away from crossing the Heavenly Pass and achieving true Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness.

At that time, Xiluo can learn from Li Boyang and attain Dao Proving while Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness.

After all, the direction of Dao Proving has been determined, and the foundation for the [Jade Pool Heavenly Book] as the object of Dao Proving has been laid.

Xiluo doesn't need to continue exploring the path ahead like the Great Heavenly Deity Qi Chi, trying to figure out what path she's best suited to prove.

"Why do you disagree with the pool's conditions?"

Without even turning his head, Li Boyang just stared intently at the [Jade Pool Heavenly Book] inside the Eight Trigrams Furnace and laughed.

"Wu Jun's willingness to allow the Six Paths of Reincarnation to appear ten thousand years ago is a tremendous blessing for both me and the Netherworld Lord."

"This means that if I wanted to, I could push back the timeline of my birth to ten thousand years ago."

Rolling her eyes in annoyance, Xiluo was not about to believe Li Boyang's words.

"Making your existence transcend time is not the purpose of your Dao Proving..."

"So changing your own origins is completely irrelevant to you."

Xiluo was telling the truth; Li Boyang's Dao Proving was merely Dao Proving.

The Jade Disc of Creation, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Six Desire Heavens...

All of the above are merely props used by Li Boyang to prove his direction, not his ultimate goal.

Therefore, he was able to relinquish the Jade Disc of Creation with great ease, entrust the Six Paths of Reincarnation to the Lord of the Netherworld Lord, and transform the Great Sovereign Heaven into the present-day Six Desire Heavens.

Li Boyang's purpose in Dao Proving has always been singular: to transcend all sentient beings and Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao.

"Compared to that, I think the sun right above us is more like the reason you agreed to their conditions."

Looking up at the sky, Xiluo gazed at the sun and said.

The Yunmeng Jade Pool Realm is merely a hidden paradise; in essence, it does not experience the rotation of stars or the changing of the four seasons.

But ever since Wangshu was born, the Yunmeng Jade Pool Realm has had its own nights.

The appearance of that sun now fills the last gap in the Yunmeng Jade Pool Realm, giving it the distinction between day and night.

With the alternation of day and night, the cycle of the four seasons will naturally take shape.

Therefore, it won't be long before this Yunmeng Jade Pool Realm becomes a secret realm with a complete cycle and the ability to sustain itself.

Before the birth of the Six Desire Heavens, only the former Heavenly Emperor's Capital had truly achieved this.

If that's really what you're saying, I won't argue with it.

Looking at the sun in the sky, Li Boyang continued to smile noncommittally.

"After all, with this ancient sun from ten thousand years ago, perhaps I can forge a third Dao Path."

Upon hearing this, Xiluo immediately forgot about the sun and turned to look at Li Boyang beside her in shock.

"Do you intend to use this sun to forge a new Dao Path?"

"This is Hao Jun's sun, aren't you afraid something might go wrong?"

Li Boyang shrugged slightly and answered in a calm tone.

"What do I have to be afraid of? It's Wu Jun who should be afraid."

"If I were to use this to become a Dao Lord like Eastern Emperor Great Unity or the Solar Star Lord, then Wu Jun should abdicate and yield the position to a more worthy successor."

Wu Jun is currently Dao Proving, but he is trapped upstream in the Long River of Time.

If Li Boyang had truly succeeded in Dao Proving enlightenment before Chi and then looked back at history, he could have easily replaced him.

At that time, the Heavenly Emperor Wu Jun as perceived by everyone will become Li Boyang, and the real Wu Jun will completely disappear into the river of time. From this perspective, Wu Jun personally handed Li Boyang a handle to eliminate him.

"Hmph! I think it's Hao Jun who has figured you out completely."

"Chi Ming knew you would never do such a thing, yet he still offered you his own opportunity to attain enlightenment."

"That guy clearly wants to use you to Dao Proving himself, and hopefully rewrite his destiny so he can be reborn in the future."

Given the precedent of Zhuang Zhou's Dao Proving, Xiluo's statement is not entirely unfounded.

In any case, Li Boyang could never truly become the Lord of a Dao.

At most, he'd leave behind an incarnation, like the Great Emperor of Fengdu or the Primordial Beginning Heavenly Demon.

Since that's the case, why not let Li Boyang try to prove this "Dao of the Sun"?

If it fails, Wu Jun will suffer no loss.

But if he succeeds, Wu Jun could completely replicate Li Boyang's method of attaining Dao Proving in his own era, and ultimately succeed in Dao Proving and transcending the Long River of Time.

"If that's really the case, I won't lose out!"

"My own Dao Proving is bound to have its flaws. If Wu Jun truly wish to use me to help you Dao Proving, I can also use Chi's help to perfect this Dao Path." In any case, this is a win-win situation for Li Boyang.

I have a feeling you're hiding something from me.

Knowing she couldn't win an argument with Li Boyang, Xiluo glanced at him with considerable suspicion.

The tacit understanding they had developed over time made Xiluo wary; Li Boyang must have only told her half the story, and there was something else he was hiding from her.

"Hasn't your ' Heavenly Mandate Divine Ability ' already taken shape? Guess it yourself!"

Based on the same tacit understanding, Li Boyang also sensed Xiluo's distrust.

However, just like before, Li Boyang simply smiled and changed the subject without saying a word, showing no intention of giving a direct answer.

"Just as I expected, I'm sure I'll figure it out this time!"

After making her usual sarcastic remark, Xiluo didn't press the matter further but continued the conversation.

"I feel like I'm just one step away from achieving the Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness, but I still don't know where I'm missing..."

She leaped directly down from the tree branch, and Xiluo transformed into her celestial maiden form, asking and answering her own question.

"So I won't be dreaming about it for a while; I need some time to process what I've learned."

"I promised Indra that I would rule the Six Desire Heavens, and I feel that now is the perfect time."

Li Boyang gave Xiluo a deep look, paused for a moment, and then asked.

Is it the feeling you get from "Heavenly Mandate Divine Ability"?

After receiving Xiluo's affirmative nod, Li Boyang immediately continued.

Remember when I told you, "It's better to be ignorant of fate than to blindly believe in it"?

"Your appearance reflects your heart; your destiny is in your own hands."

"Don't forget your sister's example. She believed too much in so-called ' Heavenly Mandate,' and despite having the power to change Heavenly Mandate, she let herself die and her soul perish."
