The Eternal Calamity of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 300 Heavenly Dao and the Realm of the Illusory Gods
"It doesn't matter. As long as you hand over the fragments of the Void God Realm to me, your position as Heavenly Venerable in this life will be a foregone conclusion."

"What, with your background, you're worried about not being able to outdo other prodigies?" Chen Wu teased.

The young Taoist priest before me called himself Yuanshi.

This title is extremely prestigious, representing the beginning of all things and containing the secrets before the creation of heaven and earth. In some dimensions, it also symbolizes the cause of all effects. Therefore, it carries profound causal implications, and ordinary people would never dare to take it.

The fact that Yuanshi Daoren dared to use this title naturally indicates that he had sufficient confidence.

Its origins are extraordinary, far beyond everyone's imagination. Looking across the entire world, only Chen Wu knows its details.

In fact, it was not born in this era, nor is it human. It was a fragment of the broken spirit world that, by chance, fused with a part of the Dao Fruit and essence blood of a fallen immortal, and eventually became spiritual and took human form over the years.

As for the fallen immortal, he was the Lord of Qingwei Heaven in the Nine Heavens, and he was a fellow disciple of the Lord of Dachi Heaven and the Lord of Yuyu Heaven. They died together in the great battle at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era.

After their deaths, to prevent darkness from corrupting their bodies and turning them into dark creatures, their comrades, the Seven Kings of the Borderlands, chose to cut off their heads and burn their remains.

It was precisely because of this incident that the Seven Kings of the Borderlands were misunderstood by their own people and were considered traitors. In addition, some petty people spread rumors and distorted the truth behind their backs.

Therefore, the descendants of the Seven Kings of the Borderlands were labeled as the "Clan of Sinful Blood" and suffered endless oppression until the Desolate Emperor Shi Hao rose up and settled all past grievances, thus completely washing away all the humiliation.

Of course, that's a story for another time, so let's return to the present.

Yuanshi Daoren shook his head slightly and said calmly, "In this era, although it is said that a hundred boats are racing and ten thousand races are vying for supremacy, in reality, only three people are worth mentioning. Among them, the innate Dao embryo and the biological son of Feiyu Tianzun are indeed extraordinary. If they were born in other eras, they might have had the opportunity to ascend to the position of Tianzun. It is just a pity that they were born in this era and met me."

"The only slightly troublesome thing is morality. I once observed him from afar on the Star Trial Road. His spiritual sense is quite strong, and his attainments in the field of divination are extremely high, far surpassing others."

"Moreover, I always felt that there was something strange about Morality. Every move he made seemed familiar. Perhaps we knew each other in some distant past life."

At this point, Yuanshi Daoren paused slightly, a hint of emotion on his face.

"The Heavenly Venerable of Tribulation bestows the Dharma, the Heavenly Venerable of Immeasurable preaches the Dao, and one exclusively enjoys the fortune of the first ultimate trial path... All these things accumulate into a terrifying foundation of morality, making one qualified to compete for the final victory in any lifetime, and with a very high probability of attaining enlightenment."

“If this battle continues, my avatar will likely be destroyed. However, I don’t care; I can simply refine another avatar. But my morality is another matter; it might damage my foundation, leaving me with no hope of ever attaining enlightenment again.”

……

False invincibility: defeating all opponents along the way, bathing in the blood of powerful enemies, and reaching the pinnacle.

Truly invincible: He only needs to deploy one avatar to be confident that he can sweep away all the heroes in the world, and his unparalleled demeanor can overwhelm all the heavens and myriad realms.

This is what it means to have an overconfident, self-centered attitude!
Even though this generation has produced the first innate Dao embryo, had the previous Heavenly Venerable's own child unsealed, and had many seeds from great sects and holy lands embarking on their journey, none of them are taken seriously by the Primordial Daoist. Only one person, whose morality has been strengthened by Chen Wu several times, has barely attracted its attention, but that's all.

"You're quite confident!"

Chen Wu smiled and then said in a joking tone, "If you had taken human form earlier and appeared at the beginning of the era, perhaps neither Cao Yusheng nor I would have been a match for you?"

"You flatter me too much, Celestial Venerable. If it weren't for you, I would have no hope of taking human form at all. How could I dare to be so arrogant and compete with you and the Tribulation-Transcending Celestial Venerable?" Yuanshi Daoren sighed.

Remember when we were reversing the chaos of ancient times, after leaving the Heavenly God Academy, Chen Wu traveled to the Void God Realm through the Spirit Realm to seek some verification.

On that occasion, a giant stone figure guarded the gate between the Spirit Realm and the Realm of the Void Gods. At that time, Chen Wu casually placed a piece of chess and had it wait for Shi Hao in the future.

As time passed, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were ravaged, and the spirit realms and illusory god realms scattered in various places were also shattered, with the vast majority disappearing.

The Primordial Daoist benefited greatly from this; one could even say that the Eternal Heavenly Venerable was its creator. Therefore, the first thing it did after taking human form was to go directly to Burial Sky Island.

"It was just an unintentional act back then. Even without me, you could still transform. It's just that the journey might be a little different. And don't underestimate morality, or you'll suffer a great loss," Chen Wu said with a sneer.

"is it?"

Upon hearing this, the Primordial Daoist seemed to be deep in thought.

As a fragment of the spirit world with supernatural abilities, its talent in the spiritual realm is nothing short of monstrous. It also has an inexplicable relationship with an immortal, so its path to enlightenment is a foregone conclusion.

Throughout the entire era of Shrouding the Heavens, those who could rival or even surpass him were probably only Wu Shi, Qing Di, and Wei Yang Xian.

Of course, Daode and Lingbao are not bad either, and there is a very high probability that they are related to Da Chi Tianzhu and Yu Yu Tianzhu.

So, as the saying goes, to get ahead in the world, you need connections and influence.

……

"Alright, I've been waiting for you for so long. The fragments of the Void God Realm were prepared for this purpose, and I'll give them to you even if you don't want them."

As he spoke, the fragment of the Void God Realm in Chen Wu's hand suddenly shone brightly.

hum!
At this moment, all sorts of mysterious and unpredictable chains of laws began to unfold, connecting the illusory and the real, as if creating the world and reshaping the universe.

To cover the nine heavens and ten earths with the virtual divine realm, gather the talents of all living beings, and ignite the spark of civilization—this was an idea Chen Wu had long ago.

However, when it was obtained, the new era had only just begun, and the Human Body Secret Realm Method had just come to the stage. There were neither the necessary conditions nor a suitable control center.

Therefore, Chen Wu could only keep this plan sealed away, using it only once during his third incarnation as a vessel to carry the Dao fruit, his heart transforming into the mortal world.

Another instance was when the Chaos Green Lotus took human form. It was used as a simulated world, and the little guy quickly became addicted to it, turning into a "net addict."

In fact, the true destiny of the fragments of the Void God Realm is the Primordial Daoist, who was transformed from the fragments of the Spirit Realm.

"Those prodigies are just appetizers. The real challenge is yet to come. If I want to bear the power of the minds of all living beings and rule from the center, the power of the Primordial Daoist alone is not enough. What I need is the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, whose spiritual power is unparalleled throughout the ages and whose primordial spirit looks down on everything," Chen Wu said solemnly.

"Ah, so fast?"

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Daoren's face immediately fell.

It certainly knew Chen Wu's true purpose—to establish a virtual realm and forge the Heavenly Dao!

The Way of Heaven is the sum of all order, laws, and objective forces, representing destiny.

Humanity, encompassing all challenges, transcendence, and the manifestation of subjective energy, elucidates variables.

These two forces are opposed to each other, yet they can also merge.

Among them, the Heavenly Heart Mark corresponds to the Heavenly Dao, and the Void God Realm corresponds to the Human Dao. If the two are to be united, only Yuanshi Tianzun, besides Chen Wu, can accomplish it.

However, the price is that they will never be able to leave the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths again.
