I use my supernatural powers to prove my immortality

As time passed, the whole world suddenly descended into chaos.

Every living being in the world felt a chill run down their spine.

This feeling is hard to describe, but it's real, like the Sword of Damocles hanging over your head.

If I had to describe it, it would be like the eve of an earthquake, landslide, or tsunami, when all the animals in the world heard sounds that are not heard in normal times, and then collectively became anxious and frantic.

Now, all living beings in the world have not only "heard" this omen, but their perception of it is becoming increasingly stronger.

Moreover, the ways in which they sense it are incredibly varied.

Some creatures inexplicably feel unusually agitated, unable to sit or lie down comfortably, as if countless lumps have accumulated in their hearts, making them exceptionally resentful.

Some creatures, however, inexplicably hear various tinnitus sounds in their minds.

It was as if the horns of doom were sounding inside their heads, constantly disturbing them with noise, as if they were about to be driven completely insane.

And some creatures, as soon as they close their eyes, begin to have nightmares.

I dream of the sky collapsing, or of meteorites falling from the sky, fire rain, or the earth turning upside down, as if the earth has split open a gaping maw.

In the blink of an eye, the crack in the earth opened and closed, and countless lives were swallowed up and disappeared by the earth, leaving only the gushing blood.
Chaos ensued. The world, already in disarray and devastated, became even more chaotic in a very short time.

Not to mention the original world, even the spiritual realm that established the earth's cycle and cleverly integrated the four cycles of earth, water, wind, and fire is now plagued by frequent disasters.

These cultivators who sought refuge in the spiritual realm also sensed impending doom and lived in constant fear.

The only thing that could give many cultivators some peace of mind was perhaps the extremely unique life-and-death mechanism within the Spirit Realm.

Even if disasters occur frequently, various accidents are likely to happen, or even if one is directly reduced to ashes, one can still be resurrected under the protection of the laws of the spiritual realm.

but.

The feeling of being killed at any time and in any place is quite unpleasant and frustrating.

The cultivators who sought refuge in the spiritual realm now have considerable reservations about the Heavenly Dao's treacherous and reckless ways.

To put it bluntly, the dissatisfaction has even reached its peak!

Even so, it was still just a prelude to the end of an era.

More and more intelligent beings are beginning to understand a fact through some unseen intuition—

Everyone will die; this is just the beginning!

Of course, rather than relying on some kind of divine inspiration, it would be more accurate to say that an extraterrestrial enemy, eroding the will of Heaven, intentionally led people to learn this information through some kind of divine inspiration.

There were no surprises, no coincidences; what everyone knows is what the mastermind behind the scenes wants the world to know.

Sure enough, the whole world was plunged into unprecedented chaos and panic almost instantly.

In some residential areas, the already fragile order has now completely collapsed.

The people's hearts are as firm as iron, and the will of Heaven is as storied as a furnace.

No matter how panicked, fearful, praying, and fighting the surviving creatures were, the world continued its unstoppable slide into the abyss.

The will of the people is the will of Heaven; the hearts of the people are the hearts of Heaven.

When the whole world inevitably declines, the people will naturally feel resentment.

When the resentment and hatred of all living beings accumulate to a certain degree, even if the one who does evil is "God," it will still trigger many bad things.

"How utterly depraved and immoral they are!"

"When will this day end? I will perish with you."

Curses and insults like these were endless.

but.

At this juncture, the public's protests and curses seem so weak and powerless, failing to bring about any change to the dire situation.

At least that's how it appears on the surface!
As the Holy Master gazed upon the chaotic and frantic order of heaven and earth, and felt the ever-worsening state of people's lives, he couldn't help but let out a long, melancholy sigh.

"All living beings should not be deceived. Since the beginning of time, Heaven, Earth, and Man have always existed side by side, without distinction. Why must Heaven make things difficult for Heaven, Earth, and all living beings?"

In the Holy Master's view, the extraterrestrial enemy had already eroded the will of Heaven and even won a great victory, so He was the new will of Heaven.

It feels like a dynastic change, with the old royal family being replaced by a new one.

If the world moves towards orderly development, then the "God of Heaven" standing at the top of the new order will surely be able to obtain the greatest benefits from rule with the least cost of rule.

Unfortunately, this new "God of Heaven" seems to have no intention of slowly benefiting from the ruling order.

He only wants a short-term harvest!

In the next instant, in the eyes of the Holy Master, it seemed as if countless eyes, ears, and mouths suddenly appeared in the world.

These eyes, ears, and mouths appear in different ways.

Perhaps if it opens its mouth, the sky will open up, as if the heavens have cracked open a "scar in the sky", and the water of the Milky Way will pour into the human world.

Perhaps if he opens his mouth, countless volcanoes will erupt on earth.

It could even manifest as endless wind tunnels, tearing everything apart and overturning everything.
Instantly, the Holy Master and other Dao Lords all felt a chill run down their spines.

Not only the Holy Masters, but almost all the Dao Lords clearly felt that once these eyes, ears, and mouths completely appeared in the world, their world would definitely be destroyed immediately.

They will no longer be able to bury their heads in the sand, nor will they be able to evade responsibility with various excuses.

If all the people in the world were to die, then their era would be completely over!
"Deceiving Heaven."

At this critical moment, the Shadow Master's voice suddenly resounded throughout the entire world.

Then, the eyes, mouths, and ears that were just about to appear seemed to suddenly go silent, or go blind or deaf, and were briefly plunged into a kind of confusion.

In the feedback and perception of the Heavenly Way, the calamity that He wanted to unleash may have been completed beyond expectations, but in reality, nothing ever happened.

at the same time.

A figure of the Shadow Master suddenly appeared beside the Holy Master. His expression was extremely solemn as he said, "The order of the entire world is on the verge of collapse. He is most likely to wake up soon. What is happening now may just be a little bit of his morning grumpiness!"

"Of course, it's also possible that it's just tactical blackmail."

"Once you, Holy Master, make your move in all directions, your Dao will surely be immediately imprinted in the hearts of all living beings in the world. At that time, you will be completely fattened up!"

Once they're fattened up, they can be slaughtered.

This applies to the Holy Master, his Shadow Master, and the other Dao Masters as well.

The Shadow Master seemed to be speaking to the Holy Master, but in reality, he was also speaking to all the Dao Masters in the mortal realm.

He even said it to himself!
The sage smiled and said, “Life is what I desire, and righteousness is also what I desire. If I cannot have both, I will give up life for righteousness.”

"Since this era has chosen me to become the Dao Master, there must be a reason for it. Now, perhaps the time has come for me to step up without hesitation!"

The film master smiled upon hearing this, not showing any particular surprise.

Like Zhong Lixiao, these Dao Lords also have the awareness and determination to protect their own era!
Although their current actions may be entirely within the expectations of the enemy from beyond the heavens, and are no different from those of many Dao Lords in the past, like moths to a flame, they are simply repeating the old path.

but.

As the Dao Lord recognized by all people in this era, how could they tolerate the beings of their time being completely plunged into an abyss of no return?

Most importantly, as the Dao Lord, one lives as long as heaven and earth.

Their own life, death, honor, and disgrace were completely bound to heaven and earth.

For both public and private reasons, they will not allow extraterrestrial enemies to run rampant!

The actions of the extraterrestrial enemies who are currently trying to steal the authority of Heaven are completely contrary to their own principles.

Even their own path urges them to fulfill their duties.

Their patience has reached its limit.

However, the film's protagonist is not afraid of sacrifice, but rather of sacrifice that is meaningless.

The Holy Master didn't think too much about these things. In the next instant, a ruler appeared in his hand.

"Measure people, measure their hearts, measure the distance."

With the advent of this ruler, it seemed as if the world suddenly possessed a certain standard of measurement.

At this moment, not only cultivators and ordinary people throughout the world, but even some demons and monsters who have just awakened their ignorance and wisdom, all had a standard in their hearts.

Then, the Holy Teacher, holding a ruler in one hand and a book of sages in the other, appeared in every corner of the world, and also in the hearts of all living beings.

"Heaven and earth were dark and yellow, the universe was vast and boundless. The sun and moon waxed and waned, the stars and constellations were arrayed in their positions."

The next instant, all living beings in the world simultaneously heard the sounds of children reciting elementary texts, their voices rising and falling in different tiers.

In their eyes, it was as if an old teacher had appeared, holding a primer and giving lessons to the children.

At that moment, countless living beings across the world were stunned.

If I had to give an example, it would be that "Three Hundred Children's Songs" is indeed a powerful exorcism scripture.

Especially when the young children are learning to speak and following the holy teacher, swaying their heads and trying to understand the original appearance of the world, it is even more moving.

Even to the point of being moved to tears!
In a short time, all living beings in the world seemed to have become members of the old master's elementary school.

Learn the most fundamental principles of the universe with the Holy Master!
Cold comes and heat goes, autumn harvests and winter stores. Leap years complete the year, musical scales harmonize the seasons.

In the beginning of chaos, heaven and earth were established.

The light and pure air rises to become the heavens, while the heavy and turbid air condenses and sinks to become the earth. The sun, moon, and five planets are called the seven luminaries; heaven, earth, and humanity are called the three powers.
Without a doubt, these are the simplest truths in the universe.

Anyone who has attended elementary school understands these principles.

Even if someone has never been to school, as long as they have some life experience, they will generally understand these things.

Especially when compared to the incredibly terrible reality, these simplest and most ordinary things become so extraordinary and so precious.

In short, that is—

The movement of the sun and moon must have its own logic and rules.

There should be an order among the four seasons.

There should be certain rules regarding what can and should be done at what time.

Yin and Yang are distinct, yet ordered, each following its own path.
As the Holy Master spoke, the survivors across the land were all moved to tears.

Only when we lose something do we truly understand how precious it was.

In a short time, almost all living beings in the world praised the holy teacher's name.

The Holy Master thus gradually imprinted himself into the hearts of every living being in the world!

The "righteousness pattern" symbolizing the holy teacher shone brightly for a short time, directly imprinting itself into the entire world.

at the same time.

The Holy Master himself seemed to disintegrate little by little, transforming into endless light.

But it did not simply vanish; rather, it was gradually imprinted into the righteous energy patterns of various holy masters throughout the world.

More precisely, the Holy Master has now officially begun to unite with the Dao!

Despite the pressure from the enemies beyond the heavens, he began to merge with the Dao, transforming once again into the magnificent and righteous Dao that permeated the entire world.

It was clear that the sun, which had been reluctant to set for so long, was being dragged back down little by little by some mysterious force, following the familiar trajectory that people had known throughout history.

Moreover, people discovered that the various demons and monsters that had recently wreaked havoc on the world were now being purified and eliminated, letting out screams of agony.

The powerful beings, in a daze, seemed to see the phantom of a holy master appearing amidst the righteous energy.

They are fighting, trying to restore order to the world.

In the blink of an eye, this chaotic world seemed to have regained its long-lost tranquility.

The sun sets, a cool breeze blows, and a refreshing wind caresses the face.
However, it is still clear to the world that it is not so easy for the Holy Master to accomplish these great deeds.

Take the sun, for example, which was forcibly dragged down by the Holy Master; it would occasionally rise back into the sky.

Without a doubt, this is a war without gunfire!

"Holy Master, you must win!"

Never before have all living beings in the world been so united as they are now.

One could even clearly feel that those strands of thoughts transformed into some kind of invisible great power, gradually swirling around the righteous path represented by the Holy Master.

To help the Holy Master gradually restore the order that was about to collapse.

but.

One of the simplest and most basic truths in the world is that destruction is always easier than construction.

The Holy Teacher is like a skilled paperhanger.

While the methods for repairing flaws are impressive and ingenious, the rampant decay and destruction always manage to find a loophole.

Any oversight would naturally trigger one disaster after another in their world.

Before long, people gradually discovered that stars were once again climbing up the dark sky.

However, unlike the almost constant celestial phenomena of the past, the current celestial phenomena are quite chaotic.

Some stars appear and disappear, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.

It gave the impression that the stars and the sky were engaged in a silent contest.
In addition, the surviving creatures in the world discovered that some of the houses they had built before, which were engraved with the patterns of the Heavenly Pillar and the Earthly Master, seemed to have come back to life.

Even the simplest and most rudimentary houses now seem to have been transformed back into impregnable bunkers, possessing considerable defensive capabilities.

Clearly, it was through this method that the Taoist masters they worshipped helped them rebuild their lives.

In a short period of time, all the surviving beings in the world simultaneously built one temple after another in their hearts.

Many Dao Venerables helped them establish their own domain through this method, and in turn, they elevated each Dao Venerable to the level of the former Heavenly Emperor.

Time passed day by day, and as the various Dao Venerables took action one after another, the sun and moon resumed their operation as people remembered them, and even the solar terms they were familiar with seemed to have been regained to some extent.

Although it is not as meticulous as before, it is finally becoming traceable.

People have finally regained some of their will to live from the fear of the end of the epoch.

But soon, people discovered that even with the efforts of many Dao Venerables to turn the tide, the power of the righteous path of heaven and earth was still far less than before, given that the wicked heavens intended to destroy the world.

Even with the protection of the hearth fire barrier, those demons and monsters that appear out of nowhere can easily destroy everything they have painstakingly preserved at any time.

However, it was from this day onwards that countless cultivators who had been hiding in the Spirit Realm to avoid disaster began to emerge from the Spirit Realm again.

Even though conspiracy theories abound in the Spirit Realm, a large number of cultivators still leave the Spirit Realm and the mountain gate, carrying a precious sword, and roam the world to slay demons and monsters.

Everything was just too much of a coincidence!

With the intervention of numerous Dao Lords, the cataclysmic destruction of the sky collapsing, the earth sinking, the ground cracking, and the mountains collapsing was successfully averted.

Then, just then, various demons and monsters appeared, requiring these junior cultivators to exert their full strength to slay them.
No matter how you look at it, it all looks like a trap to lure them out.

Even so, the cultivators who had been hiding in the Spirit Realm still stepped out one after another and devoted themselves to the great cause of slaying demons and monsters and upholding justice for the world.

And in this process, casualties are naturally frequent.

It really proves the saying: old soldiers never die, they just fade away!

but.

The wisdom of the people is gradually being revealed at this moment.

More and more cultivators are discovering that their cultivation level, combined with the symbolic Dao patterns of the nine Dao Lords, can produce many wonderful reactions.

This is why all cultivators in the world, in the process of slaying demons and eliminating evil, will inevitably believe in and respectfully ask the Daoist for protection.

As a result, countless "Daoist methods" and "Daoist techniques" that could draw upon the power of the nine Daoist masters sprang up like mushrooms after rain.

Three months.

Six months.

Ten months.

One year.

The terrible world, the terrible balance, was once again ruthlessly broken after the one-year period.

is the day.

All living beings in the world simultaneously saw a face appear in the sky.

Upon seeing this face, all living beings in the world are momentarily stunned.

Because every living being sees its own reflection in this face.

"You may call me 'Hao,' for I know everything about you!"

As soon as the man who called himself Hao finished speaking, an unprecedented chill rose in the hearts of all living beings in the world.

The name Mingming is so pure and bright.

But this voice seemed to come from the deepest hell, seeking to take the lives of all living beings in the world at the same time.

His words, in particular, sent chills down the spines of everyone present.

Does He know everything about them?
The being in front of them, who called himself Hao, was the thieving God they had been cursing for the past two years.

At this moment, the emotions in the minds of countless beings across the world nearly burst forth.

Countless people knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

We pray to the merciful God to have mercy and spare their lives!
As for the many powerful figures, especially the numerous Dao Lords, they are now watching Hao with extreme vigilance.

Then, everyone saw that behind the Heavenly Emperor Hao, who stood tall in the clouds, a throne of heaven appeared directly.

And so, in full view of all, He sat on the throne of heaven.

"Kindness? Compassion? Mercy?"

"I am naturally merciful and will have pity on you lambs. Once the harvest is complete and I have obtained what I desire, I will naturally reopen the era."

"Rest assured, this world of yours is now completely my private property. The reopened era will surely be even more wonderful, bringing me even more joy and wealth."

As Hao spoke, the whole world fell into complete silence.

Hao, outspoken and straightforward, intends to usher in a new era.

It was as if endless light was being used to cleanse the entire world. (End of Chapter)
