A Broken World, the Heavenly Dao's Demise

Upon hearing Ji Ziyue's words, Ji Haoyue's expression instantly darkened.

He had finally managed to enter the Divine Forbidden and was confident he could defeat Ye Fan, but his own sister kept telling him to go easy on him, which was infuriating.

I really can't keep this younger sister of mine.

His anger grew stronger and stronger, and his attacks became increasingly fierce. All his pent-up frustration was poured out as he unleashed killing blows on Ye Fan.

"Ye Fan, prepare to die!"

Ye Fan felt that each punch from his opponent was stronger than the last. Even with his powerful Ancient Desolate Sacred Body, he was still in unbearable pain, and his wounds kept bleeding.

While circulating his holy power to heal his injuries, he gritted his teeth and fought back, silently waiting for Ji Haoyue to fall from the Divine Forbidden.

"Damn, Ji Haoyue is definitely cheating. Otherwise, his cultivation level couldn't have increased so quickly, let alone reached the Divine Forbidden."

Throughout the entire Big Dipper, no other genius of his generation has been able to enter the Divine Forbidden Realm at this level.

The thought had barely formed in his mind when a sharp pain shot through his chest, and he coughed up a mouthful of scalding golden holy blood.

He was blasted away and crashed heavily to the ground, creating a deep crater.

Ye Fan lay in the pit, golden holy blood constantly spilling from the corners of his mouth, and immediately activated the incomplete "Zhe Character Secret to repair his injuries.

Looking up at Ji Haoyue high in the sky, her expression was complex, her eyes filled with resentment and confusion.

I just can't understand why the other party has undergone such a complete transformation in such a short time, with their strength increasing to such an extent.

He couldn't find any other reasonable explanation besides cheating.

With this thought in mind, he couldn't help but ask, "Your cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and your strength has increased so much. Are you cheating?"

Ji Haoyue's smug smile froze for a moment, then returned to normal in an instant.

He realized that Ye Fan was also from Earth and must have read many novels with systems.

What cheating?

I became stronger entirely through my own hard work and dedication day and night.

Do you think I can only improve my cultivation through unorthodox methods?

You underestimate me.

Ye Fan smiled awkwardly, knowing that questioning the other party's ability to cheat when he couldn't win was indeed unsportsmanlike.

"I apologize, I misspoke earlier."

I lost this time, but I'll definitely beat you next time we face off.

Ji Haoyue scoffed. "If you want to defeat me, then you'd better work hard."

"Don't wait until I become an emperor, and you haven't even touched the threshold of the Sage Realm."

As soon as he finished speaking, he sensed his power waning, and he had fallen out of the Divine Forbidden. His extraordinary state, which had made him seem like a god, completely dissipated.

While the Divine Forbidden is indeed powerful, my own foundation is currently insufficient, so I cannot enter Divine Forbidden at will, nor can I reside Divine Forbidden.

I still need to work hard to become stronger and strive to become Great Emperor within a hundred years.

Black Emperor stared wide-eyed at the defeated Ye Fan.

Ye Fan's strength was already unmatched among his peers, yet he was still no match for Ji Haoyue.

"The bearing of Great Emperor! Truly the potential of Great Emperor! To be able to enter the Divine Forbidden already earns him the title of a young Great Emperor."

Pang Bo's Adam's apple bobbed, utterly incredulous. "Yezi actually lost... How is this possible?"

Ji Haoyue is really like someone with cheat codes.

Li Heishui gaped, exclaiming repeatedly, "Ji Haoyue is too strong! He's practically a young Great Emperor!"

A purple figure swiftly reached the bottom of the pit, quickly helped Ye Fan up, and asked with great concern, "Ye Fan, are you alright?"

After saying that, she looked up at Ji Haoyue and said reproachfully, "Brother, why did you hit him so hard!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyue clenched her fists, feeling aggrieved and wishing she could rush up and fight Ye Fan for another three hundred rounds.

After learning about his future Fate, he did not stop his sister from dating Ye Fan as he had done before, which made their feelings for each other grow stronger.

Now, my sister only has eyes for the man she loves and completely ignores her brother.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. With nowhere to vent his anger, he could only snort coldly and glare at Ye Fan: "I'll spar with you another day."

Before he finished speaking, he flashed away and left. If he stayed any longer, he would probably be driven mad with anger.

Looking at Ji Haoyue's furious yet helpless expression, Wang Qiang couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"Hahaha, this is truly amusing. Although Fellow Daoist Ji won this match, he ended up losing his own sister."

Everyone in the All Heavens Chat Group couldn't help but laugh; no one had expected such an unexpected twist in the ending.

Ji Haoyue snorted coldly, stubbornly retorting, "They were a match made in heaven; I was merely going with the flow to bring them together."

"Yes, yes, you're right, we understand." Wang Qiang replied with a playful smile.

Fengyun Wuji smiled and said, "Congratulations on your victory, Fellow Daoist Ji."

However, the Divine Forbidden in your world are quite peculiar. Once you step into this realm, your combat power will surge, as if you have broken free from the shackles of this world and achieved a sublimation.

Zhong Yue nodded repeatedly in agreement. "Indeed mysterious. When I first read the novel ' One Leaf,' I found the Divine Forbidden very strange. It doesn't exist in my world, or even in all the myriad worlds."

This is more like a shackle set by heaven and earth for all living beings, and the Divine Forbidden is the key to unlock it, allowing cultivators to unleash their full power.

Wang Qiang wholeheartedly agreed and began to analyze:

"There were no Divine Forbidden during the Chaotic Ancient Era. These restrictions only came into being after the Chaotic Ancient Era, most likely because the world was severely damaged, and the rules of heaven and earth that bound all living beings arose on their own."

However, this constraint is not unbreakable. Cultivators can temporarily break free by stepping into the Divine Forbidden, and Great Emperor can reside permanently within the Divine Forbidden, which is equivalent to completely shattering the shackles of the world.

Furthermore, I discovered that the world where Fellow Daoist Ji resides has no Heavenly Dao; only instinct remains.

To expand the world's territory, the only way is for the strong to merge with the world.

Only a world with the World Tree is complete. The World Tree seems to have replaced the Heavenly Dao, organizing all the Great Dao Principle of the world.

What's even more peculiar is that the World Tree in this world evolved from plants.

It's completely different from the World Tree I know.

In my memory, the World Tree is Chaos Spirit Root, born from the boundless Chaos Sea, capable of independently creating worlds on its own.

A glint of wisdom flashed in Zhong Yue's eyes, and he nodded in agreement:

"After your analysis, this place is indeed full of strangeness."

Although I don't know what kind of catastrophes have occurred in this world in the past, I can tell from the records in the novel that this world is already incomplete.

Wang Qiang nodded in deep agreement and slowly analyzed, "Based on my years of experience reading and writing novels, I can infer that the Heavenly Dao has long since fallen in the world where Fellow Daoist Ji resides."

The world is now driven by instinct alone.

Without the Heavenly Dao, it would be impossible to quickly repair the shattered world.

If the Heavenly Dao still exists, the world will recover much faster, and there will be no frequent outbreaks of Dark Turmoil, allowing the powerful to slaughter and reap all living beings at will.

The Way of Heavenly Dao is formed by the aggregation of the will of all living beings. Large-scale death of living beings and the collapse of heaven and earth will deplete the origin of the Way of Heavenly Dao, and it will never allow such a situation to occur.

However, the Heavenly Dao has never manifested in this world. Combined with the content of the "One Leaf" trilogy, it is enough to conclude that the Heavenly Dao has long since perished.

I speculate that the one who took action to kill the Heavenly Dao was that Ruler (Above the Sacrificial Dao).

And the root cause of his later illness lay in this.

When he destroyed all the worlds, the Heavenly Dao tried to stop him, but was instead killed by his own hands.

It is very likely that Curse was left behind before the Heavenly Dao fell.

Furthermore, his constant destruction and re-creation of the world caused State of Mind distress, and the combined effect of these internal and external factors led him to fall ill.
