Standing Tushita Heaven, Supreme Lord Lao silently watched as countless streaks of purple qi pierced the sky and traversed the Three Realms.

At this moment, Supreme Lord Lao had become an independent entity, a facet of Li Boyang's existence in this world. Kechi, in effect, was trapped within the Three Realms, with no possibility of transcending them.

All living beings, even those as insignificant as ants, can potentially Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao as Li Boyang, as long as they follow the right path.

No matter how slim the possibility is, at least there is a possibility.

However, Supreme Lord Lao is different. Even if Chi has separated himself from the identity of "Li Boyang's incarnation", he cannot go any further to Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao.

As the Three Realms grow stronger, so too will Supreme Lord Lao).

No matter how powerful Chi becomes, he can never Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao and Embracing the Path of Transcendence.

The so-called "sage of the Three Realms" is nothing more than a substitute locked inside a door.

To use a perhaps inappropriate analogy.

In essence, Supreme Lord Lao is a firewall for the Three Realms.

Eliminate all things that may affect the balance of the Three Realms or disrupt the order of the Three Realms.

At his peak, Chi was even able to suppress Great Unity and the Netherworld Lord; he was Li Boyang at his zenith.

But no matter how powerful he becomes, he can never surpass Great Unity and Netherworld Lord in terms of realm, nor can he achieve the same Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao as the Chi brothers, transcending this world.

Of course, it's not impossible for Supreme Lord Lao to escape this fate.

If Chi could find an incarnation or being willing to bear this cause and effect, he could also break free from this eternal cycle by differentiating himself into the form of "Laojun".

Unfortunately, this is only theoretically feasible, and the actual success rate is so small as to be disheartening.

A weak being is not worthy of bearing this consequence.

That would only be a form of self-destruction, after which Supreme Lord Lao would return from the cycle of reincarnation once more.

And an existence powerful enough to bear this cause and effect.

People like Great Unity and the Netherworld Lord are already seeking a path forward, so how could they possibly be willing to be trapped in the Three Realms? "Tsk, they've only just been born and they're already thinking about breaking free of their shackles..."

"It seems I really am of the same ilk as Li Boyang; this unwillingness to accept defeat and refusal to accept fate is exactly the same."

Unable to help but shake his head and sigh, Supreme Lord Lao was learning how to think for the first time, felt both frustrated and genuinely happy.

This is what it means to be alive, this is what it means to be independent, this is what it means to be free.

As he pondered this, Supreme Lord Lao turned his gaze to the mortal realm below, to the Gods and Devils, and Buddhas who were looking at him.

Surprise, realization, or confusion...

The Gods and Devils, and Buddhas all looked at Supreme Lord Lao, and their memories and images of the pond quickly became more vivid. He was no longer an incarnation of Li Boyang, but a sage from Tushita Heaven —Celestial Venerable of Great Purity.

Tumultuous!

Just as the memories and images of all living beings were about to be completely distorted, a golden light suddenly shot straight into the sky.

Moo!

Before everyone's eyes, a gigantic Single Horn blue ox descended from the sky.

On the back of that Single Horn blue ox, Li Xi was glaring angrily at Supreme Lord Lao.

Following closely behind the ox and the man was Chi Fou, whose face was calm and expressionless, but whose pupils revealed a strange sadness.

"So it was you!?"

With a sharp shout from Li Xi, she suddenly hurled the Five-Colored Stone at Supreme Lord Lao.

However, whether it was due to prior preparation or simply because his reaction speed was fast enough, Supreme Lord Lao unexpectedly threw out a golden light ring. The moment the Five-Colored Stone entered the light ring, it immediately lost contact with Li Xi.

Upon seeing this, the Single Horn Si was the first to react and immediately raised its voice to shout.

"That's the Heaven and Earth Ring! He left the Heaven and Earth Ring behind!"

In the blink of an eye, the Chiru, arriving first, threw a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) at Supreme Lord Lao.

The Bagua formation expanded in the light and grew larger in the wind, instantly transforming into a gigantic entity that trapped the opponent within a three-dimensional Formation. "The Luo River Book?"

Recognizing the essence of the Formation at a glance, Supreme Lord Lao glanced at Chixu with slight surprise.

But I only glanced at it.

The gap between the two sides was simply too great; it couldn't be bridged by a mere Law Treasure.

In an instant, the boundless Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi gathered in Supreme Lord Lao's hand, transforming into the shape of a carrying pole.

Bang!

With a gentle tap, Supreme Lord Lao easily shattered the Luo River Book Formation.

However, taking advantage of this moment, the Single Horn Si threw out its nose ring, which hit Supreme Lord Lao's forehead directly.

As the prototype and test version of the [Heaven and Earth Ring], the [Vajra Ring], although not as freely changeable as the [Heaven and Earth Ring], was extremely well-suited to the abilities of the Single Horn Si.

Faced with such a significant increase in aggression, even Supreme Lord Lao had no choice but to withdraw and adopt a defensive stance.

Boom!

In an instant, a heavy impact resounded throughout the entire Tushita Heaven.

When Supreme Lord Lao clutched his head in pain, the Gods and Devils, and Buddhas watching the battle all showed expressions of horror.

This wasn't just because they were surprised by Supreme Lord Lao's disheveled appearance, but also because they knew Li Xi hadn't yet unleashed his full power. In the great battle ten years ago, the Udumbara Flower [Precious Lotus Lantern] and [Demon-Refining Pot] had left a deep impression on everyone. As for the Arbiter of Fate Goddess, Chi Fou...

Speaking of this person, the myriad Gods and Devils, and Buddhas are even more familiar with him.

With Li Boyang's disappearance, Chi Fou naturally assumed a significant portion of his great achievements.

This includes her deeds of enlightening the people of the hundred lands and bestowing titles upon the Gods of the Hundred Lands; no one would doubt her power.

"He doesn't want to see you, so why are you taking it out on me?"

To everyone's surprise, Supreme Lord Lao covered his head with one hand, his eyes filled with helplessness as he looked at the three of them.

It's obvious that the opposing trio didn't use their full strength, and neither did Supreme Lord Lao).

"Besides, it's all too late."

After speaking, Supreme Lord Lao suddenly waved his sleeve, and the four of them disappeared directly from the Tushita Heaven.

By the time the three of them realized what was happening, they had already descended from the Heavenly Realm to the mortal realm, arriving above the capital of the Great Xia.

Where is this place?

Having stopped the raging Single Horn and the furious Li Xi, the only one among the three who remained relatively rational, Chiru, asked this question.

In fact, Chi Fou never wanted to fight Supreme Lord Lao in the first place.

Especially after witnessing the other party walk out of the Tushita Palace and then transform from Supreme Lord Lao into Celestial Venerable of Great Purity.

Chiru had already realized that all their efforts along the way had been in vain; they had ultimately failed to catch up with Li Boyang one last time. Or, according to Supreme Lord Lao, the other party was deliberately avoiding them.

"If you still want to see him one last time, this is your last chance..."

Gently rubbing his head, Supreme Lord Lao did not directly answer Chiru's question, but instead exhaled a stream of dark yellow Yuan Qi. Looking at that familiar Black and Yellow Qi, even the most heartbroken and furious Li Xi quieted down.

The next moment, the Yuan Qi of the dark yellow color transformed into a divine talisman and unfolded naturally. Within that talisman, the current state of the Yellow Court Inner Landscape was clearly reflected. Hunyuan One Qi - Supreme Purity Divine Talisman!
