“Who the h.e.l.l is this old man? We’re bullying a young girl?” It was as if the Sea G.o.d had heard something inconceivable. His face was filled with astonishment as he gazed at the old man sitting on the iridescent cloud.
“Ignore him! It’s clear that he’s trying to find an excuse to fight with us. We need to hurry up and return to the Heavenly Life G.o.ddess’ side!” the Sea Python said. It then dove into the depths of the sea, resolutely fleeing without even looking back once.
The Sea G.o.d didn’t want to cause any unwanted trouble either. Thus, he immediately flew toward the Heavenly Life G.o.ddess.
“After bullying the young girl, you two want to flee just like that?”
The old man on the iridescent cloud started to become slightly serious.
He then mysteriously appeared before the Sea G.o.d.
“d.a.m.n it! Is there no end to this?
“You just want to fight with me, right? You’re seeking death!”
The Sea G.o.d was enraged, and he immediately thrust his golden trident at the old man.
As he faced this earth-shattering attack, a cheery expression suddenly spread across the old man’s face. He extended a single finger, and it was as if the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth had been completely summoned by him, with an unbelievably pure orb of light gathering on his fingertip.
“From Dao, there comes one…”
Boom!
The golden trident collided with the old man’s finger.
A devastating shockwave erupted into the surroundings, instantly pus.h.i.+ng the sea, sky, and nomological laws of heaven into the distance.
Upon being struck by this shockwave, the Sea G.o.d almost dropped the golden trident in his hands.
“Who in the world are you?” the Sea G.o.d asked in shock.
He knew that the old man was powerful, yet he hadn’t expected him to be quite so powerful. The old man had blocked his full-power attack with a single finger!
The old man smiled but didn’t reply. Instead, he stood up on the iridescent cloud.
“From one, there comes two.”
A projection of yin and yang materialized beneath his feet, expanding at an incredible rate as it grew from nothingness into a vast and infinite expanse that enveloped the entire White Nectar Sea!
Hei s.h.i.+, Liu Jin, and the other G.o.d of Creation Stage divine beings all drew a sharp breath. Despite living for so long, they had never witnessed such a pure projection of yin and yang before. It was as if this projection contained the true meaning of the universe, and it was as if it contained a boundless profoundness as well as a boundless might…
The fleeing Sea Python had clearly traveled tens of thousands of kilometers into the distance already, yet it was still forcefully suppressed by the powerful projection of yin and yang. Regardless of how it squirmed and struggled, it was still completely unable to escape.
Standing in the center of the projection, the Sea G.o.d could more so feel the terrifying nature of this spell formation. Two bursts of energies completely locked his essence.
The old man once again extended a finger at the Sea G.o.d, and it was as if both the yin and yang projection as well as a boundless dao power were converged on his fingertip as he made a tapping motion at the Sea G.o.d’s head.
“From two, there comes three.”
He tapped at the void, and countless black and white symbols suddenly materialized on the Sea G.o.d’s body. After fusing with his dao power, the might of these symbols became terrifyingly powerful.
“From three, there comes all matter.”
The old man’s voice rang out across heaven and earth.
At this moment, the Sea G.o.d and the Sea Python saw all matter of heaven and earth. They saw the boundless and mystical universe, and they also saw countless other matters. It was as if they were traveling through a journey of life, and it was as if they were witnessing the ultimate meaning of life.
“No… this… What kind of feeling is this…?” the Sea G.o.d stammered. There was an expression of enlightenment on his face. The symbols on his body pulsated and expanded, and his skin started to crack.
He was clearly suffering immense pain, yet the euphoria brought about by this mysterious feeling of enlightenment forcefully suppressed this pain. The Sea G.o.d couldn’t help but yearn for this feeling. He wanted to completely grasp the true meaning of the universe, and he wanted to absorb this into his essence!
The old man slowly retracted his finger. A faint smile spread across his face, and he said, “Oh, that’s right, I’m Lord Lao Zi. People also like to refer to me as the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue.”
Just as he finished speaking.
Boom!
There was a deafening explosion.
The Sea G.o.d had suddenly burst apart.
Tens of thousands of kilometers away, the squirming and struggling body of the Sea Python also violently burst apart. In fact, it even triggered a tsunami that sent waves hundreds of thousands of feet into the sky.
With a light stomp of his feet, the projection of yin and yang beneath the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue’s feet shuddered slightly. The furious tsunami was instantly suppressed.
The sea returned to a state of calm and tranquility.
With a single wave of his hand, he had caused heaven and earth to lose their l.u.s.ter. With a light stomp of his feet, he had caused a raging tsunami to subside and calm down.
In fact, these remarkable abilities were no big deal in the eyes of the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue.
Everything had finished.
As two of the ten primordial beings, the Sea G.o.d and the Sea Python had actually been suppressed and killed by the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue. In fact, they hadn’t even been able to put up a struggle. The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue’s entrance was even more stunning and impressive than that of Patriarch Zhu Yin!
The Heaven Crus.h.i.+ng United Army had already entered a state of uncontrollable euphoria.
This was especially the case for the more powerful cultivators. The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue was someone who they had always respected and looked up to. After all, he was the ancestor of all cultivators, and he was the teacher of all holy beings!
However, most beings had only heard of him before, and they had never seen him in actual battle. Today, however, they were finally fortunate enough to witness his profound might. In fact, the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue had even sided with them and fought alongside them!
While shedding tears of excitement and joy, some cultivators actually attained sudden enlightenment.
The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue hadn’t obtained his t.i.tle for nothing. With a few simple techniques, it was as if he had unleashed a peculiar power of education. This was definitely a valuable treasure for the spectating cultivators! It was extremely easy for them to attain unique enlightenment!
At this moment, the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue, who was at the center of all attention, turned around to look at Tian Yi.
Tian Yi wasn’t astonished or stunned. Instead, she still wore a dazed and muddled expression. She bowed slightly at the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue, and she said, “Thank you.”
“M-hm… It’s my pleasure,” the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue stroked his beard and said. He then shook his head and continued, “I couldn’t stand back and watch them bully a young girl like you.”
“I’m not a young girl,” Tian Yi said in a mellow voice.
The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue found this G.o.d of Creation Stage divine being to be extremely interesting, and he was just about to say that regardless of how old she was, she would still be a young girl in his eyes.
However, Tian Yi suddenly said, “I’m a small fish.”
“Er… ahem…” The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue almost choked to death upon hearing this.
Not a young girl, but a small fish?
What kind of strange self-awareness is this?
“Small fish eventually have to return to their own pond. Only that small pond is where I belong…” Tian Yi said in a mellow voice as she gazed up at the sky.
The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue also gazed up at the sky.
Perhaps the Sea G.o.d hadn’t known what Tian Yi was gazing up. Or perhaps he had thought that she was daydreaming and belittling them. However, the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue saw what she was gazing at. The sky wasn’t the same sky, but it was instead a sky that lay countless eons away.
“Ow… it’s hurting my eyes…”
The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue couldn’t help but shut his eyes after gazing at the sky for a while. He then rubbed his eyes in exasperation as he turned around to look at the beautiful mermaid who was still gazing at the sky. “Why are you always gazing at the sky? Don’t your eyes get tired?”
Tian Yi smiled in reply. This was a beautiful smile, and it was as if she were a mermaid who had continued to guard that which was valuable to her for countless and countless years. This was a peculiar and somewhat lonely sense of beauty, and even the experienced Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue couldn’t help but feel astonished by her beauty.
Tian Yi swished her slender and jade-like pink tail before saying in a soft voice, “No, they don’t get tired. How can one become tired looking at their own home?”
