Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

Later, he was bestowed with a twelve-petaled golden lotus of merit by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, which merged into his body and returned him to his original source, thus creating the precious lotus before him.

After it opens the dream path, the precious lotus transforms into the merit dream path precious lotus.

As the lotus slowly blooms, a figure emerges from within, ethereal and seemingly asleep.

At the same time, Cundi Buddha Mother emerged from the Bodhi tree. The two gazed at Ying Zheng with subtle affection, and then said with emotion, "Fellow Daoist Fuxi, how have you been? It is a joyous occasion to congratulate you on your upcoming enlightenment."

Ying Zheng humbly replied, "You two are too kind. I am still a long way from attaining enlightenment. I have come to Mount Ling to ask for your help, and I hope you two will grant my request."

Cundi Buddha and Amitabha Buddha were not surprised at all. With their level of cultivation, they knew his intentions the moment Ying Zheng's thoughts stirred.

As the power of the Dream Path flowed, Ying Zheng gazed at Amitabha Buddha and, in a daze, glimpsed the dream realm that existed between reality and illusion.

The power of dreams seems to encompass everything, covering all the heavens and realms. Wherever living beings enter a dream, a dream is born.

Upon seeing this dream realm, Ying Zheng sensed the immense benefits within, and his ambition was astonishing.

But Ying Zheng was puzzled as to why Amitabha Buddha had revealed the dream world to him.

When Amitabha Buddha's dream appeared, Cundi Buddha Mother's expression shifted slightly. Her eyes opened slightly, revealing hesitation, which ultimately turned into a soft sigh: "Brother, why do you do this to yourself..."

Amitabha Buddha gazed at Ying Zheng, who had sunk into the dream realm, and said with a firm expression, "Now that my dream realm is about to be completed, it still needs a lot of help. Fellow Daoist Ying Zheng is the best choice."

Cundi Buddha Mother's expression suddenly became urgent, tinged with excitement: "Brother Dao, are you saying..."

“Amitabha…” Amitabha interrupted abruptly.

The Tathagata Buddha, observing from the sidelines, maintained his calm and detached demeanor.

As time slowly passed, Ying Zheng soon awoke from this dream world of countless beings, and then sighed, "Fellow Daoist's grand aspirations are beyond my reach. However, for the dream world to be perfected, it will likely go through many twists and turns."

The Buddha Mother Cundi and Amitabha Buddha had long anticipated Ying Zheng's sentiments.

At this moment, Amitabha Buddha solemnly said, "We understand your intentions, fellow Daoist. It is not impossible for Buddhism to be integrated into this primordial Dharma network, but we only ask that you provide unconditional assistance once after you have attained enlightenment."

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng fell silent. The Path of Dreams, as an illusory path, had not yet been fully solidified.

When it truly desires to materialize, it will likely need to contend with numerous powerful beings, at which point it will require his strong support.

This exchange condition was quite harsh for Ying Zheng.

But for the sake of proving his Dao, he had no other choice: "Alright! When your dream world is perfected, I will definitely come to lend my assistance."

"Amitabha Buddha... Excellent, excellent!"

Cundi Buddha and Amitabha Buddha looked at each other and smiled, their eyes filled with joy.

Subsequently, Ying Zheng presented the foundation stone of the Primordial Dao to the two of them.

The power of Buddhism and Taoism permeates the air, and the power of Dream Taoism spreads, with Buddhism, Taoism, and Dream Taoism integrating this foundation into it.

Upon witnessing Amitabha Buddha's actions, Ying Zheng remained silent. For him, bringing the Dream Path under the shroud of the Primordial Law was more beneficial than harmful.

At the same time, countless Buddhist believers and practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism heard the prompts from the Primordial Dharma Network:

"By the decree of Amitabha Buddha and Cundi Buddha Mother, we are beginning to bind Buddhist believers. All Buddhist disciples can now access the Hongmeng Dharma Network for cultivation!"

"Your attainment of Bodhisattva/Buddha status has been detected. In accordance with the agreement, some permissions are now being granted!"

"..."

After the expansion of the Hongmeng Dharma Network, many Arhats, Bodhisattvas, and Buddhas in the Great Thunder Temple heard system notifications.

Their minds entered the Primordial Law Network, and with the access granted, they cultivated using the profound mysteries of the Great Dao derived from the collision of myriad paths.

Many Bodhisattvas and Buddhas were immersed in the state of enlightenment, and their cultivation progressed, which made the Arhats, Bhikkhus, and Vajras present extremely envious.

Having already encompassed the Buddhist realm, Ying Zheng gladly left it and headed towards his next destination—the underworld.

Thinking of the underworld race and the witch race who lived in the netherworld, Ying Zheng felt a sense of unease.

The witch tribe is known throughout the heavens for its violent temper, and persuading them is by no means easy.

Hopefully, these ancestral witches, having been tempered by the last great war, will no longer be as reckless as before; otherwise, they will truly be difficult to deal with.

The moment Ying Zheng stepped into the Underworld, above the Six Paths of Reincarnation, which manifested at the deepest part of the Underworld, in the suspended Houtu Palace.

A figure dressed in palace attire awoke leisurely. She slightly opened her eyelids, a profound meaning appearing in her eyes: "Hongmeng has finally come knocking. But he is indeed extraordinary. First, he unexpectedly persuaded the Demon Ancestor Rahu, and now even those two bald monks have not escaped his schemes. Next, we shall see what kind of conditions you can offer to get the Underworld to join."

Houtu was well aware that with the addition of numerous Great Luo Heavenly Venerables and Primordial Dao Lords to the Hongmeng Law Network, her forces would undoubtedly benefit greatly from integrating into it.

However, the terms for discussion still need to be negotiated; otherwise, wouldn't that make us look down on others?

The commotion caused by Ying Zheng's arrival roused the eleven Ancestral Witches who held some power in the Underworld from their respective Ancestral Witch Palaces.

These eleven Ancestral Witches now occupy the positions of the Ten Kings of Hell and Judges in the Underworld through avatars condensed from the laws of the universe, making them extremely important.

Having weathered countless years, they are no longer the impulsive and irritable people they once were.

This was especially true of Dijiang, the first of the twelve Ancestral Witches and the Space Ancestral Witch, and Zhujiuyin, the second-ranked Time Ancestral Witch.

With the help of Houtu, the Dao Ancestor, they even seized control of spacetime and became the Primordial Dao Lords. The other Ancestral Witches were no less powerful!

In addition to the unique nature of time and space, these two are particularly difficult to deal with among the many Primordial Dao Lords.

As they gathered, the power of time and space shifted, and in a daze, it seemed as if they could glimpse the future of Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng's gaze flickered slightly, and he turned to look in that direction, severing the connection between time and space with the willow leaf.

The Space Ancestral Witch Dijiang and the Time Ancestral Witch Zhujiuyin suffered backlash, but calmly wiped the blood from the corner of their lips: "Sister, he will surely attain enlightenment. Just offer suitable conditions, and you can discuss the rest with him."

After speaking, the Space Ancestral Witch Dijiang and the Time Ancestral Witch Zhujiuyin left with their remaining brothers and sisters, and the Houtu Palace returned to its former tranquility.

Ying Zheng sensed the power that had been spying on him earlier and pondered, "It seems that the power wielded by the Wu Clan is more mysterious than I imagined. But it doesn't matter, I didn't come here to make enemies."

"Hongmeng pays homage to the Ancestral Witch Houtu here. I hope the Ancestral Witch will forgive my hasty visit!" Ying Zheng stood outside the Houtu Hall, respectfully bowing.

"Crench!"

The palace doors opened, and Ying Zheng stepped inside. The profound mysteries of the Earthly Path of Reincarnation flowed here, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation constantly absorbed the true spirits of all beings below the Golden Immortal level, causing them to reincarnate in the myriad realms of the heavens.

Those who do not attain the Golden Immortal realm will find it difficult to achieve immortality. Even with the protection of the earthly path, a true spirit can only reincarnate tens of thousands of times before it completely dissipates, unable to bear the power of reincarnation any longer, and ultimately merges into the earthly path of reincarnation.

Now, with the expansion of the Hongmeng Dharma Network, the environment for all beings to cultivate themselves will be greatly improved.

They have a better chance of cultivating into immortal golden immortals and transcending the suffering of reincarnation.

At this moment, Ying Zheng gazed at Houtu, who stood tall in the hall—the only woman besides his sister Nuwa to achieve the status of Dao Ancestor.

Although he had heard many rumors about Houtu's gentle nature, Ying Zheng knew that gentleness alone was not enough for her to become the Lord of the Earthly Path. In the past, she was not the only one vying for the title of Lord of the Earthly Path. Many powerful figures, such as the Demon Master Kunpeng and the Styx Ancestor, also coveted the title.

In the end, she broke through the encirclement, evolved the Six Paths of Reincarnation to complete the Earthly Path, and firmly established herself as the Lord of the Earthly Path.

Therefore, Ying Zheng never underestimated Houtu's wisdom and character: "This time I have come to ask for a favor, and I hope that Lady Houtu will grant it."

Just as Ying Zheng bowed and made his request, Houtu quietly appeared before him and immediately helped him up: "Nuwa and I are close friends, why are you being so polite, Fellow Daoist Hongmeng? Besides, bringing the Underworld into the Hongmeng Law Network is beneficial to all living beings in the world, so I grant your request."

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng hesitated slightly, but his goal had already been achieved.

Regardless of Houtu's intentions, he accepted the offer: "Thank you, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty requires anything in the future, you may summon me through the Hongmeng Law Network, and I will do my utmost!"

Houtu made no further requests, only exchanging a smile with Ying Zheng, everything understood without words.

Then, the Primordial Foundation Stone in Ying Zheng's hand was gently touched by Hou Tu's hand and immediately merged into the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Wherever the cycle of reincarnation exists in all the myriad realms, it will be covered by the Primordial Law Net.

This was the result of Ying Zheng and Hou Tu promoting it through their own great power.

Upon seeing this, the Jade Emperor, who was sitting in the Heavenly Palace of Lingxiao, was almost furious: "Houtu, you've ruined my plans!"

He had originally planned to extort a large sum of money from Ying Zheng when he came to visit, but now he saw that the situation had already turned out to be favorable.

Whether the Heavenly Realm joins or not is merely icing on the cake for him, but if the Heavenly Realm refuses to join the Hongmeng Law Network, it will inevitably create a rift with all the heavens and myriad realms, which is something that the Great Heavenly Venerable Haotian cannot tolerate.

At this moment, the Hongmeng Law Network connects with the gods of the underworld, allowing countless beings in the underworld to link up with the Hongmeng Law Network.

This opportunity to converse with those who died in the past is incredibly precious to these beings, who are all grateful for the mercy of the Earth Goddess and Ying Zheng.

Now, the eleven Ancestral Witches, through the authority granted by the Primordial Law Network, have all gained insights amidst the collision of the Great Dao.

Moreover, Ying Zheng, who is now receiving all the insights, is showing signs of another transformation in the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos.

However, Ying Zheng forcibly suppressed the transformation of the Primordial Dao, wanting to complete the matter in one go and perfect it completely.

Currently, only the Heavenly Realm, the Demon Clan, and the Time-Space City represented by Yang Mei Daoist remain unresolved.

Just as Ying Zheng stepped out of the underworld, the figure of the Southern Heavenly Gate appeared before him.

Upon seeing the manifestation of the Southern Heavenly Gate, Ying Zheng saw Venus waiting there.

He knew that Haotian was no longer able to sit still. Of the remaining two forces, the demon race had Donghuang Taiyi in charge, and the Time-Space City had Yangmei Daoist.

Both were Dao Ancestor-level powerhouses, while he was merely a Primordial Dao Lord; how could he compare to them?

Faced with Ying Zheng's overwhelming advantage, there was no room for negotiation.

Venus bowed to Ying Zheng and said humbly, "Lord Dao, the Great Heavenly Venerable has been waiting for you for a long time."

Ying Zheng nodded silently, strode into the South Heavenly Gate, and in an instant crossed the thirty-three heavens to arrive at the Lingxiao Palace.

Here, the Great Celestial Venerable Haotian could no longer maintain his airs as the ruler of all heavens. He strode forward and took Ying Zheng's hand: "Fellow Daoist, your construction of the Primordial Law Network, connecting all the heavens and myriad realms, has made a tremendous contribution to the stability of the world's order, and your merits are immeasurable. The Heavenly Realm cannot lag behind now, and I am determined to have the Heavenly Realm join this Primordial Law Network!"

Seeing the Jade Emperor's obsequious attitude, Ying Zheng did not refuse.

However, Ying Zheng felt slightly uncomfortable with their enthusiasm: "Fellow Daoist's willingness to lead the Heavenly Realm to join the Hongmeng Law Network is truly a joyous occasion. Please, Fellow Daoist!"

After speaking, the Primordial Foundation Stone floated out of Ying Zheng's hand. The Great Heavenly Venerable Haotian smiled broadly, but his heart was filled with unspeakable frustration.

As the Primordial Foundation Stone merged into the core of the Celestial Realm, part of the divine authority was touched!

The radiance of the gods began to be absorbed by the Primordial Chaos Net. Many star lords, heavenly lords, and even emperors in the Heavenly Court found it difficult to resist the allure of the Primordial Chaos Net.

Moreover, at the instant the divine light was incorporated into the primordial law net, it borrowed a portion of the divine authority.

Ying Zheng even vaguely connected God's Heaven, Chaos's Chaotic World, the Infinite World of the Infinite God, and the Endless Abyss.

These forces all accommodate some of the divine authority, so the divine way has a significant influence on them.

However, Ying Zheng knew that it was almost impossible to invite God and many powerful beings to enter the Hongmeng Law Network in the face of those who were hostile to them, so he did not do anything futile.

Seeing that the aura of the Great Heavenly Venerable Haotian was becoming increasingly profound, Ying Zheng immediately said, "Great Heavenly Venerable, I still need to deal with matters concerning the demon race and the Time-Space City, so I cannot stay any longer. Farewell!"

Without waiting for the Great Heavenly Venerable Haotian to stop him, he swiftly departed.

Ying Zheng knew that with Haotian's shamelessness, if he didn't leave soon, this person would ask to increase the access to the Hongmeng Law Network.

It would be fine if only he were added, but if other powerful beings found out, would all the authority of the Primordial Dao Lords need to be upgraded?

This is definitely not a good thing for him; it would be better to nip the problem in the bud.

After leaving the Heavenly Realm, Ying Zheng immediately began planning his next goal.

As for Time City, judging from Yang Mei Daoist's demeanor during the last meeting, he should not refuse.

As for the demon race, out of respect for Nuwa, Donghuang Taiyi would not refuse.

Just as Ying Zheng was making his decision, a golden rainbow flashed by in an instant, revealing the imposing figure of a three-legged golden crow, carrying the aura of a fearsome sun patrolling the heavens.

This is a genuine three-legged golden crow. Although its aura is not as powerful as that of Donghuang Taiyi or the demon emperor Jun, it should not be underestimated. Moreover, its Great Dao of the Sun is quite profound.

Isn't this the same person who once ruled the Great Dao under the Eastern Emperor Taiyi?

It seems he ceded the position to his nephew, the demon prince Lu Ya.

Now that Donghuang Taiyi has been revived, he has also regained his position as the Crown Prince of the Demon Clan, no longer keeping a low profile as before.

Judging from the situation, they have already accepted the Sun Avenue.

Lu Ya has already made great strides on the path of the Primordial Dao Master. If he can continue to improve step by step, he will be able to achieve even greater progress.

Perhaps with the support of Donghuang Taiyi and the Demon Emperor Jun, it might be possible to successfully navigate this path!
But hope remains slim, even though Donghuang Taiyi has already abandoned the Great Way of the Sun.

He passed the position to his nephew Lu Ya, but whether he could truly grasp the key points and inherit the position still depended on his talent and comprehension.

If one cannot fully comprehend the essence of the Great Dao of the Sun, even with the assistance of Donghuang Taiyi and the Demon Emperor Jun, it will be difficult to inherit the position of the Ancestor of the Sun Dao.

However, he has finally seen some hope and is no longer as lost as he used to be.

For cultivators, the most dreaded thing is not being able to see the road ahead. Countless Great Luo Heavenly Venerables and Primordial Dao Masters have fallen into the same predicament as Lu Ya.

At this moment, the three-legged golden crow, which had transformed into the great sun illuminating all the heavens and myriad realms, took human form, with golden hair flowing down its shoulders, and wore an imperial robe embroidered with a pattern of the three-legged golden crow looking down upon the world.

Lu Ya looked at Ying Zheng with a slightly complicated expression: "Senior Xi Huang, it's been a long time. It seems the last time we met was at the Nuwa Palace, when Father entrusted me to the Empress." (End of Chapter)
