A Major Version Update!
The chaotic energy surged like raging waves, and the Dao intent ran rampant.
The newly formed Chaos Dao Fruit was emanating a terrifying aura that made all the True Lord present tremble.
"A new Fruition Status has been attained—"
Qingyuan True Lord Wendao stared at the cocoon of light, a rare and intense emotion appeared in his usually cold eyes.
As a master of Sword Dao, he has the most acute perception of "Tao" and "position".
He could clearly sense that the essential level of this emerging Fruition Status was subtly superior to that of the vast majority of True Lord Dao Fruit!
It represents a completely new and unprecedented avenue!
"What kind of Dao is it that can evoke such a vast resonance between heaven and earth, and even subtly shake the foundation of All Wonders Heaven?"
The True Lord Vast Sea and Fine Dust frowned, his vast Divine Sense like an invisible tentacle, cautiously reaching out towards the cocoon of light, attempting to decipher its core Dao intent.
However, the moment the Divine Sense approached, it was like a mud ox entering the sea, swallowed and assimilated by a strange force field that was chaotic and indistinguishable yet all-encompassing, and all that was returned was a deeper fog.
"Domineering! Utterly domineering! It's as if it wants to bring everything under its control!" A True Lord from an ancient sect, with extensive knowledge, murmured in disbelief, his face filled with horror.
In an instant, all the True Lord ' gazes were fixed on this newly born Fruition Status, their eyes filled with inquiry, shock, fear, and even a trace of barely suppressed greed!
Compared to the shock and suspicion of the other True Lord, the True Lord Wudao and the Desolate Halberd True Lord of the Holy Sect camp exchanged a glance after their initial astonishment.
The figure of the True Lord Wudao, shrouded in gray mist, trembled slightly, and a complex expression flashed across the rugged face of the Desolate Halberd True Lord.
"He actually... did it?!"
The lips of the Desolate Halberd True Lord moved slightly, and a divine thought was transmitted directly into the depths of the mind of the True Lord Wudao, his tone carrying an uncontrollable excitement and a hint of absurdity.
"Didn't Canyi Uncle Canyi himself say that he completely sealed off that last Supreme Dao Foundation?"
The gray mist around True Lord Wudao slowly swirled. After a moment of silence, his indifferent voice resounded in Desolate Halberd True Lord's mind. It remained calm, but now held a profound depth born from understanding the truth. "The methods of Canyi Uncle Canyi are naturally infallible."
He paused, his gaze, seemingly piercing through the barrier of the All Wonders Heaven, fixed on a certain direction in the Xuanhuang Home Realm below, and continued, "Unless—it wasn't taken by force."
Desolate Halberd True Lord's tiger-like eyes widened. "Not by force? Did the seal open on its own? Or is it—"
"My grandmaster uncle's skill is so Creation, he must have his reasons for doing this," said the True Lord Wudao calmly.
Desolate Halberd True Lord gasped, his enormous hand involuntarily gripping the Desolate Heaven Halberd beside him, the halberd emitting a deep hum.
"You mean—Grandmaster Uncle-Master foresaw this day long ago?" The voice of Desolate Halberd True Lord was somewhat low.
"Unspeakable, unpredictable."
The True Lord Wudao slowly uttered six words, and the gray mist returned to silence. However, his deep eyes were brighter than ever before, staring intently at the Chaos Dao Fruit and the direction of the lower realm that the cocoon of light faintly pointed to.
"Let's see, if this boy can really take that step and swallow this Dao Fruit - this Xuanhuang situation will be completely rewritten."
Just as the True Lord were filled with excitement and speculation about their newly attained Fruition Status,
The lower realm, Xuanhuang.
In the Great Luo Heaven.
Qi Yun sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. Around him, the vast and boundless Supreme Dao intent transformed into a surging, radiant sea of light!
"Whoosh--whoosh--"
The sea of light surged, and the Daoist intent flowed like a tide.
As time passed, this vast sea of light visibly contracted and condensed, transforming into torrents of the purest Dao intent, flowing into every pore and meridian of Qi Yun's body, and finally converging in his Purple Mansion!
With the infusion of this massive amount of ultimate Dao intent, Qi Yun's aura began to undergo a transformative metamorphosis!
The last wisp of chaotic Daoist Flowing Light quietly disappeared into Qi Yun's brow and vanished in an instant.
"Buzz!"
The Law Technique Panel, its light so intense it defied description, suddenly trembled!
On the panel, the progress bar representing [Great Luo Heaven] settled steadily with a clear, resonant sound that seemed to emanate from the very source of the Great Dao.
100%!
[Law Technique auto-up complete.]
This is a major version update.
[---- Law Technique Reworked!]
The next moment -
"Whoosh!"
On the Law Technique Panel, the words "[Great Luo Heaven]" began to fade and disappear slowly.
But the evolution of the Tao is endless.
The "Great Luo Heaven" pattern had just dissipated when a majestic and profound aura, seemingly containing all the colors and possibilities since the beginning of time, overflowed out!
It has been re-condensed into a new line of text, brimming with profound meaning:
[Hunyuan Great Luo]!
The Primordial Unity Chaos is the state before the separation of heaven and earth, the unity of all things, the beginning of all things, and also the end of all things!
The Great Luo encompasses all things, is supreme and unparalleled, is the pinnacle of all heavens, and the ultimate realm of the Dao!
The Hunyuan Great Luo governs all paths and encompasses all heavens; it is the name of the sole supreme path!
"Boom!!!"
The moment the four characters [Hunyuan Great Luo] were completely solidified!
Qi Yun's eyes, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened!
Two indescribably dazzling beams of chaotic light, as if forged from the essence of countless Great Daos, erupted from the deepest part of his eyes, piercing through the remaining Dao aura around him and penetrating the endless void!
His aura, already standing at the pinnacle of the Great True Person, surged forward once more under the impact and nourishment of this massive amount of ultimate enlightenment, taking that final and most crucial step!
"Thump--!!!"
A deafening roar, seemingly echoing from the very beginning of creation, or like the simultaneous return of all paths to their rightful place, exploded violently from the center of Qi Yun!
"Snap--!!!"
The void beneath him, which was already closely connected to his own Dao Foundation and almost materialized, shattered and vanished like fragile glass!
Amidst the roar and shattering, Qi Yun's figure began to expand uncontrollably and rapidly!
Ten zhang, a hundred zhang, a thousand zhang, ten thousand zhang—in the blink of an eye, it had transformed into a figure with the endless Nine Nethers sky above its head and the Ruins of Return beneath its feet.
A figure so imposing it defies description!
Its skin texture resembles the veins of the Great Dao, and its breath exhales chaotic energy; the opening and closing of its eyes is like the Lunzhuan of the sun and moon!
Its mere existence, emanating an invisible pressure, completely solidified and suppressed the void within tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of miles around!
All turbulence subsided, all fluctuations of the Principle returned to normal, and this world seemed to have welcomed its sole ruler!
"Boom--!!!"
The vast and wondrous phenomenon of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, once again swept across the entire Xuanhuang Home Realm without reservation!
Xuan Tian is above, Huang Qi is below!
Compared to the last time he activated the "Immortal-Slaying" Dao Fruit, it was clearer, more magnificent, and more deeply moving!
"Not again?!"
"It's 'Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang' again?! How long has it been?!"
"No, it's the direction of the Wuji Sacred Sect! Is it that evil star again?!"
"He—he seems to be—really going to succeed this time?!"
Almost half of the cultivators in the Xuanhuang Home Realm, whether in seclusion or fighting, were all alarmed by this terrifying phenomenon that seemed to change the world and the supreme aura that surpassed all things!
Countless gazes, filled with shock, fear, bewilderment, and fervor, were cast upon the towering figure above the Wuji Sacred Sect, a figure so imposing it blotted out the light of day.
Those who had fought against Qi Yun or witnessed his Great True Person felt it most deeply.
Qi Yun silently felt every inch of his flesh and blood, every Divine Soul, and every bit of his Law Power undergoing a frenzied transformation and sublimation at an unprecedented speed.
A sense of supreme power, of being in control of the universe and of having complete control over oneself, filled my heart.
He raised his head slightly, his enormous, chaotic eyes, as big as the sun and moon, pierced through layers of spatial barriers and the walls of the Xuanhuang Home Realm, looking straight at the endless, distant, and transcendent All Wonders Heaven!
"My path has been completed; I shall Fruition Status."
The calm yet vast Daoist sound resonated deep within the minds of all beings who could perceive this scene, including all the True Lord within the All Wonders Heaven!
Then, under the watchful eyes of all the True Lord and even the hundreds of millions of cultivators in the entire Xuanhuang Home Realm.
That towering, majestic figure slowly raised a hand capable of supporting galaxies and crushing the sun and moon, facing the direction of the All Wonders Heaven, towards the Dao Fruit. With a slight beckoning gesture, it uttered a single syllable, yet it was like a decree of the Heavenly Dao: "Come."
"Buzz!!!"
Within the All Wonders Heaven, the Dao Fruit that had just stabilized suddenly trembled violently the moment Qi Yun uttered his summons!
Then, it moved!
In an instant, it burst forth with unprecedentedly brilliant colorful light. Without hesitation, the [Hunyuan Dao Fruit] changed direction and transformed into a dazzling, colorful meteor with a long, chaotic tail of flame, crashing headlong towards the direction where Qi Yun was in the lower realm!
What is he trying to do?!
"That Dao Fruit —is actively flying towards him?!"
"What kind of method of enlightenment is this?! I've never heard of it before!"
"Fruition Status transcends the All Wonders Heaven, how can one then uphold the true spirit?"
Within the All Wonders Heaven, the True Lord witnessed this inconceivable and utterly illogical scene, their faces filled with astonishment, absurdity, and disbelief!
What made their pupils shrink even more was -
The colorful meteor transformed from the Hunyuan Great Luo Dao Fruit was not hindered in the slightest when it burst out of the void of the All Wonders Heaven and was about to touch the seal set up by the World-Honored One!
No, it's not that there are no obstacles.
Rather, that supreme seal seemed to have lost all meaning before this Dao Fruit!
"Laugh--!"
It resembles clear water flowing through the sand.
The [Hunyuan Dao Fruit] easily pierced through the seal that had troubled even the True Lord, and rushed out of the All Wonders Heaven without any hindrance, truly descending upon the Xuanhuang Home Realm!
"Banning him—it's ineffective?!"
"What... what kind of Dao Fruit is this?!"
Even the World-Honored One's seal—
The shock in the hearts of the True Lord had reached its peak.
What is happening before their eyes is completely overturning their understanding.
The [Hunyuan Dao Fruit] was moving faster and faster, but its size began to shrink and condense rapidly as it broke through the seal and descended into the Xuanhuang realm!
As it streaked across the Xuanhuang, leaving a trail of chaotic light that stretched across the heavens, it finally arrived before that towering figure, having condensed into a perfectly round Golden Core Dao Fruit with endless colorful hues flowing across its surface!
Qi Yun lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on the [Hunyuan Dao Fruit] that he had obtained through his own Empty Attainment, his eyes deep and resolute.
Without the slightest hesitation.
Under the incredulous gaze of all the True Lord of the All Wonders Heaven;
Amidst the bewildered, shocked, and awe-inspiring gazes of countless cultivators throughout the Xuanhuang Home Realm, he raised his head, opened his mouth, and swallowed the [Hunyuan Dao Fruit Golden Core] in one gulp!
"Gulp."
A faint, almost inaudible swallowing sound, yet it resonated like the voice of creation, echoing deep within the Divine Soul of all beings who witnessed this scene!
"Today's One" 6
Qi Yun swallowing the Dao Fruit Golden Core, Qi Yun's body began to rapidly shrink and revert to its normal-sized form in a dark blue Daoist robe.
But at this moment, the aura around him rose to an unparalleled peak!
He stood in the void, his robes fluttering without wind, his black hair flying, and his eyes swirling with chaotic, multicolored light, reflecting the rise and fall of the heavens.
All things are subject to birth and death.
He spoke slowly, his voice not loud, yet carrying an unparalleled domineering and free spirit, as if he had broken free from all shackles, defied all fate, and truly grasped his own destiny firmly in his own hands. "Swallow a Golden Core pill."
From then on -
My fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven!
