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

With the fall of the ancestor, heaven and earth wailed, and all paths grieved.

All the enlightened beings looked at each other in bewilderment. They could clearly sense the shattering of the Origin Dao and its merging into the primordial world.

At this moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun stared intently at Ying Zheng and the others, as if choosing his next prey.

At the same time, as worlds were pieced together on the core of the primordial world, the moment each new world connected with the core of the primordial world, all the myriad paths of heaven and earth were instantly swallowed up.

Countless beings that depended on the myriad ways of heaven and earth began to perish one after another; immortals, demons, gods, and monsters fell and perished like a torrential rain!
"This can't go on. Sooner or later, it will be our turn as enlightened beings."
Donghuang Taiyi stared at the scene before him, lost in deep thought, pondering how to prevent the primordial world from reappearing.

With the treasure for proving one's path damaged, the strength of Ying Zheng and others also declined.

Ying Zheng absorbed the Primordial Purple Lotus into his body and continuously nourished and repaired the damaged Primordial Purple Lotus with his own Dao power.

"We must stop him as soon as possible, or we will become the next Source Ancestor, reduced to nourishment for our Dao Fruits!"

Nuwa and the others said anxiously to Ying Zheng.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun, wielding the Pangu Axe, looked down arrogantly at Ying Zheng and the others with an invincible air.

Ying Zheng could also sense that as the Origin Ancestor and the Origin Dao he controlled merged into the core of the Primordial World, all the Daos of Heaven and Earth began to shatter one after another, as if the Primordial World could reappear in the world at any time.

As numerous worlds continued to merge into the core of the primordial world, Ying Zheng discovered that his own Great Dao of Primordial Chaos and Great Dao of Destiny were also beginning to be affected.

"The primordial world is about to open, and all the myriad paths of heaven and earth are breaking apart. Fellow Daoists, quickly suppress the Great Dao you cultivate and do not allow it to be affected by the core of the primordial world."

After saying this, Ying Zheng began to suppress the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos and the Great Dao of Destiny, and Nuwa and others also began to suppress the Great Dao they cultivated.

"Stop making futile resistance; you're only doing it for nothing."

"Hahaha……"

The laughter of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Demon Ancestor Luohou, and Yangmei Ancestor lingered in the ears of Ying Zheng and the others for a long time.

"Fellow Daoists, the primordial world is about to open, which will benefit none of us. Let me deal with Dao Ancestor Hongjun! The rest is up to you."

Ying Zheng looked solemnly at the people standing beside him.

Upon hearing this, Nuwa's expression changed immediately, and she stepped forward.

"Are you sure you can handle this alone? Dao Ancestor Hongjun wields the Pangu Axe, and the Hongmeng Purple Lotus has also suffered considerable damage. What do you have to rely on to withstand him?"

Seeing Nuwa's worried expression, Ying Zheng gently shook his head and gave Nuwa a reassuring look.

"Don't worry, besides me, who else can withstand Dao Ancestor Hongjun? I'll be fine, don't worry, my path is not limited to this."

Ying Zheng stared solemnly at the scene before him where worlds were constantly being merged into the core of the primordial world.

"Let the three of us brothers deal with the Demon Ancestor Rahu!"

Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, and Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun spoke in unison.

Ying Zheng nodded, then looked at Nuwa, Houtu, and the others.

"You shall deal with Ancestor Yang Mei. Remember not to be distracted. Ancestor Yang Mei holds more than half of the power over the River of Time and Space. Be sure to deal with him carefully."

With that, Ying Zheng handed the Primordial Purple Lotus to Nuwa. He had already nourished the Primordial Purple Lotus sufficiently, and the strength of Ancestor Yang Mei was indeed not to be underestimated!
He could feel a little more at ease handing over the Primordial Purple Lotus, this supreme defensive treasure, to Nuwa.

"Fellow Daoists, success or failure hinges on this moment."

Having said that, Ying Zheng, holding the Disc of Destiny in his left hand and the Breaking Dao Spear in his right, charged fiercely towards Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Immediately, everyone found their own opponents, and a full-scale battle broke out.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun looked at Ying Zheng charging towards him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and gave Ying Zheng a contemptuous smile.

"You really don't know your own limitations, daring to face me alone. It seems you're prepared to die."

Dao Ancestor Hongjun, holding the Pangu Axe, slowly walked towards Ying Zheng.

"Hmph! Hongjun, you are the one who should die."

Ying Zheng stopped, put away the Breaking Dao Spear, and a vast river of destiny slowly emerged behind him.

Ying Zheng formed hand seals, and countless threads of destiny, formed from the power of fate, shot towards Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun summoned the Great Dao of Pangu, wielding the Pangu Axe, and fiercely cleaved at these threads of fate, while simultaneously driving the Great Dao of Pangu to sweep towards Ying Zheng.

"Boom!"

The threads of fate wrapped around the axe light the moment they touched it, but were soon torn to shreds.

The appearance of the Pangu Great Dao had a significant impact on all the Dao-achievers present.

Seeing that the threads of fate he had summoned were easily broken by Dao Ancestor Hongjun with Pangu Axe, Ying Zheng was not too surprised.

Ying Zheng pushed the Wheel of Destiny, fighting against the oppression of the Pangu Great Dao.

……

Meanwhile, the Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, and Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, who suffered backlash, were all seriously injured and have not yet recovered. They could only barely resist the fierce attacks of the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

Demon Ancestor Rahu, wielding the God-Slaying Spear, launched wave after wave of fierce attacks on the Heaven, Earth, and Man Three Powers Formation.

Under the relentless attacks of the Demon Ancestor Rahu, Pangu's primordial spirit gradually became illusory, as if it would completely dissipate at any moment.

"A few little kids dare to show off their skills in front of me? Prepare to die!"

Ancestor Yangmei summoned the Space-Time Willow Tree, merging his remaining power over the Great Dao into the willow branches. Instantly, a faint phantom of the River of Time appeared on the Space-Time Willow Tree.

Nuwa, Houtu, and others also unleashed their own magical artifacts, fighting valiantly against the attack of the Space-Time Willow Tree.

With the powerful defense of the Thirty-Sixth Grade Primordial Purple Lotus, the group was constantly looking for opportunities to launch a counterattack against Ancestor Yang Mei.

"what……"

With a scream, the Great Array of Heaven, Earth, and Man, formed by the Supreme Pure Moral Heavenly Venerable, the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable, and the Supreme Pure Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable, was shattered in one fell swoop by the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, and Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun coughed up blood and flew backward, falling into the endless void.

"Hahaha... You think you can stop me? Prepare to die!"

As he spoke, Demon Ancestor Rahu activated the God-Slaying Spear, merging the power of the Law of Slaughter, the Demonic Path, and the Great Dao of Destruction into it.

"World destruction."

The Demon Ancestor Rahu launched this devastating attack, and the God-Slaying Spear swung around, unleashing a world-destroying power!

The God-Slaying Spear flew rapidly toward the location of Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, and Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun.

Wherever the God-Slaying Spear passed, ripples spread through the surrounding space, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

At this critical juncture, the Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Supreme Purity activated the Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda and the Taiji Diagram, barely managing to withstand the sharpness of the God-Slaying Spear.

"Fellow Daoist Ying Zheng, come quickly to save us!"

Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng hurriedly activated the Destiny Disc, unleashing the power of destiny to strike Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

The Dao Ancestor Hongjun was caught off guard by Ying Zheng's sudden force of destiny, and his body involuntarily took a few steps back.

This brief respite gave Ying Zheng an opportunity. He immediately activated the Breaking Dao Spear and thrust it fiercely at the God-Slaying Spear in front of Shangqing Daode Tianzun.

Accompanied by bursts of Dao-breaking power, the Dao-Breaking Spear pierced the hilt of the God-Slaying Spear in an instant.

The God-Slaying Spear was deflected, but with a thought, Demon Ancestor Rahu regained control and the spear returned to his hand. Demon Ancestor Rahu couldn't help but feel a pang of regret that he had failed to kill the Supreme Celestial Venerable Shangqing.

"You won't be so lucky next time!"

Ying Zheng arrived before Shangqing Daode Tianzun and others.

Are you all alright?

Shangqing Daode Tianzun shook his head.

"He won't die for now."

Upon seeing this, Nuwa, Houtu, and others hurriedly came to Ying Zheng's side.

Ancestor Yangmei also retrieved the spacetime willow tree and came to the side of Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Ying Zheng retrieved the thirty-six-petaled Primordial Purple Lotus from Nuwa.

"This time, we will capture you all in one fell swoop, and you will all become fuel for the Dao Fruit."

Dao Ancestor Hongjun was eager to make a move, and Ying Zheng and the others also became wary.

"Hahaha... You bunch of trash think you can stop the primordial chaos from descending? You're simply overestimating yourselves!"

The Demon Ancestor Rahu laughed with extraordinary arrogance.

At this moment, before the arrival of the Great Dao of Pangu, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had already completely merged the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

The thirty-six-petaled golden lotus of destruction of the Demon Ancestor Rahu has also reached a state of perfection.

"It seems... the time has come."

Ying Zheng pondered to himself.

When he first encountered the remnant of Pangu's will, he made a deal with the great god Pangu and left a mysterious mark on the Jade Disc of Creation. Now it seems that the time has come to use it.

“They are at their last gasp, Rahu, go and finish them off.”

Dao Ancestor Hongjun looked at Demon Ancestor Luohou with an expression that said, "I have high hopes for you."

Demon Ancestor Rahu suppressed his anger and stared at Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

"Now that your strength has greatly increased, why don't you go yourself?"

After all, even ants can kill an elephant. Although Ying Zheng and the others were all injured, if he were to fight alone, even if he used all his strength, he might not be able to win.

Demon Ancestor Rahu saw through Dao Ancestor Hongjun's thoughts at a glance—he clearly wanted to weaken himself by using Ying Zheng and others so that he would have one less opponent in future competitions.

Seeing that his scheme had been exposed, Dao Ancestor Hongjun showed no embarrassment whatsoever. Instead, he said matter-of-factly:
"I've only just merged with the Great Dao of Pangu, and I can't yet fully control it. Among the three of us, you have the least injury. If you don't go, who will?"

Faced with such a perfunctory excuse, Demon Ancestor Rahu felt rather helpless. He glanced at Ying Zheng and the others, then proposed:

"In that case, you shall come with me, just in case. Let Yang Mei heal her injuries first, what do you think?"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohou each had their own agendas—neither wanted to suffer any loss of strength before the primordial world descended, and they were even more afraid of being beaten to it by the other.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun looked troubled, feigning reluctance, and finally sighed:
"Very well, I'll accompany you on this journey to prevent future troubles."

Seeing that Dao Ancestor Hongjun agreed to go with him, Demon Ancestor Rahu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Taking advantage of the lull in their argument, Ying Zheng and the others also seized the time to recover their strength.

"How exactly can we implant that mark into their bodies?"

Ying Zheng fell into deep thought, recovering his cultivation while remaining vigilant about the movements of Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

"Ying Zheng, it's an honor for you to die by our hands. Are you ready to die?"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun coldly shouted at Ying Zheng.

"Then we'll see if you have the ability. Be careful that what you gain today doesn't end up benefiting someone else."

Ying Zheng looked at Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohou with a half-smile.

Upon hearing this, Dao Ancestor Hongjun frowned slightly, puzzled.

"What do you mean by that? Speak quickly, or I'll make sure you die a horrible death!"

Seeing the puzzled look on Dao Ancestor Hongjun's face, Ying Zheng knew that he had not yet realized that he had become someone else's pawn.

"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. Figure it out yourself. Didn't you come to kill me? What are you waiting for? I'm afraid you don't have the ability."

Provoked by Ying Zheng's words, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's face turned ashen.

"Fellow Daoists, please channel all your power into my body. I will hold them off for a moment, then you should leave quickly."

Nuwa and the others knew perfectly well that they were all exhausted and had no other way to resist the combined attack of Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohou.

Everyone nodded, adjusted their state, and poured their own power into Ying Zheng's body.

"You brat, how dare you resist! Prepare to die!"

Dao Ancestor Hongjun gave Demon Ancestor Luo Hou a wink. Luo Hou understood, and the two of them charged towards Ying Zheng at the same time.

"Then let's see if you have the ability!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Zheng summoned the Primordial Purple Lotus and channeled all the power of the crowd into the lotus platform.

As the power of numerous Great Daos, such as the Great Dao of Nuwa, the Great Dao of Creation, the Great Dao of Primordial Beginning, and others, poured in, the Primordial Purple Lotus became increasingly radiant and dazzling.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun transformed the immortal whisk in his hand into the shape of a giant axe, infused it with the power of the Great Dao of Pangu, and condensed it into the Pangu Axe.

"One axe splits the heavens!"

In an instant, the Pangu Axe cleaved towards Ying Zheng and his group, and the Pangu Dao, which condensed the three thousand Daos, swept in with an aura of world destruction.

Demon Ancestor Rahu also infused the power of the demonic path and the Great Dao of Destruction into the God-Slaying Spear, unleashing his strongest attack.

Looking at the approaching Pangu Avenue, the shadows of axes and spears, Ying Zheng knew that the Primordial Purple Lotus alone would not be enough to withstand it.

He immediately summoned the River of Destiny, turned the Wheel of Destiny around, and unleashed an endless torrent of power.

Behind him, the Jade Disc of Creation was faintly visible, but few people noticed it.

"Roll of Fortune, go!"

In an instant, the boundless power of destiny coalesced into a wheel of fate, flying towards the earth-shattering blow.

The Pangu Avenue and the River of Destiny are locked in a struggle, the Wheel of Destiny and the shadow of Pangu's Axe are mutually restraining, while the shadow of Demon Ancestor Rahu's spear is advancing unimpeded.

Just when Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohou thought that Ying Zheng had no more tricks up his sleeve—

Ying Zheng suddenly grabbed the Breaking Dao Spear and charged straight at the two of them.

The Breaking Path Spear swept across the sky, deflecting the spear shadow and sending it flying into the endless void.

Ying Zheng had intended to take advantage of the situation to weaken the two men, but he was already exhausted and knelt on the ground.

Upon seeing this, Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luo Hou immediately attacked Ying Zheng—who would let such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip by? (End of Chapter)
