I gain ten years' worth of cultivation every day, and even geniuses will only see my doorstep!

The Void Sovereign roared in fury, "Impossible! How could you possibly break through to the Heavenly Dao Sovereign level?!"

Qin Yuan did not answer. He drew the Xing Tian Sword and slashed at the crack! The golden sword energy, more than ten thousand times stronger than before, struck the crack!

Boom—! The crack closed completely! The hand was severed, and black blood splattered into the void!

The Void Sovereign let out a piercing scream. "My hand! You dared to sever my hand! I'll remember you! Once I've healed, I will return!"

Its sound gradually faded into the distance, eventually disappearing into the black void.

Qin Yuan sheathed his sword and turned to face the three thousand Heavenly Dao Lords. "It's alright now."

The three thousand Heavenly Dao Lords knelt down in unison. "The Divine Might of the Domain Lord!"

Qin Yuan waved his hand. "Get up. Go back and strengthen the defenses. The Void Overlord won't let this go."

The three thousand Heavenly Dao Lords received their orders and departed.

Qin Yuan returned to the Void Law Hall and sat down cross-legged. The system notification sounded again: [Host has successfully broken through to the first level of Heavenly Dao Dominator, daily cultivation gains increased to 1 trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion year/day. New function unlocked: Heavenly Dao Creation – Can create new Heavenly Daos, granting new laws to the myriad realms. New function unlocked: Myriad Realms Summoning - Ultimate Edition – Can summon powerful beings from the myriad realms, the Chaos Supreme Heaven, and all the myriad worlds to assist in battle, with no cost.]

Qin Yuan took a deep breath. He was at the first level of the Heavenly Dao Sovereign, but the Void Sovereign was at least at the peak of the ninth level of the Heavenly Dao Sovereign. The gap was still enormous.

He needs to become stronger.

He closed his eyes and began to comprehend the higher realm of the Heavenly Dao Ruler.

One year later, Heavenly Dao Ruler, Second Level. Ten years later, Heavenly Dao Ruler, Third Level. One hundred years later, Heavenly Dao Ruler, Fifth Level. One thousand years later, Heavenly Dao Ruler, Seventh Level. Ten thousand years later—the peak of Heavenly Dao Ruler, Ninth Level.

On this day, Qin Yuan opened his eyes. His aura had surpassed that of the Heavenly Dao Ruler, reaching a completely new realm—the Heavenly Dao God Emperor.

System notification: [Host has broken through to the first level of Heavenly Dao God Emperor. Daily cultivation gains have increased to 1 trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion year/day. Final function unlocked: Heavenly Dao Creation - Infinite – Able to create infinite Heavenly Daos and open up infinite worlds.]

Qin Yuan stood up. He knew it was time.

He left the Void Law Palace and flew towards the outer reaches of the Myriad Realms. Passing through golden borders and black void, he arrived at a world he had never seen before.

There stood a colossal palace. The entire palace was forged from black divine crystal, exuding an aura of absolute dominion.

The lair of the Void Lord.

Qin Yuan landed before the palace, the Xing Tian Sword unsheathed. "Void Sovereign, emerge!"

The palace doors opened, and a black figure stepped out. It was a middle-aged man with a sinister face and an aura as terrifying as an abyss. His right hand was severed—it had been cut off by Qin Yuan ten thousand years ago.

"You've finally arrived." The Void Sovereign looked at him, his eyes filled with killing intent. "I've waited for you for ten thousand years."

Qin Yuan said calmly, "I'm here. What do you want?"

The Void Sovereign sneered. "What? Of course, I'll kill you and then devour the myriad realms of the heavens."

He raised his hand, and a brand new black palm materialized, striking Qin Yuan with a powerful blow from the peak of the ninth level of the Heavenly Dao Sovereign!

Qin Yuan neither retreated nor yielded, and slashed down with his sword! Guardian of the Heavenly Dao - Ultimate - Heavenly Dao God Emperor Edition! Golden sword energy, carrying the power of the Heavenly Dao, slashed towards that palm!

Boom—! The palm shattered! The sword energy, still powerful, struck the Void Sovereign!

The Void Sovereign screamed, flying backward and crashing into the palace, spitting out black blood. "How is this possible?! You—you've broken through to the Heavenly Dao God Emperor level?!"

Qin Yuan did not answer. The second sword strike followed immediately!

The Void Sovereign fought with all his might, but was sent flying by a single sword strike! The third sword! The fourth sword! The fifth sword!

After ten sword strikes, the Void Sovereign lay on the ground, unable to rise again. He looked at Qin Yuan, his eyes filled with despair. "Why...why were you able to break through to the Heavenly Dao God Emperor realm? I've pursued this for billions of years, and I still haven't reached it..."

Qin Yuan said calmly, "Because your path is to devour. My path is to protect. Devouring will eventually come to an end, but protection is endless."

He raised the Xingtian Sword, preparing for the final blow.

The Void Sovereign suddenly laughed. "You think killing me is the end of it? No. I am merely the master of the Sea of ​​Nothingness. Above the Sea of ​​Nothingness lies the Sea of ​​Chaos. Above the Sea of ​​Chaos lies the Land of Origin. The beings there are more than ten thousand times stronger than me."

He looked at Qin Yuan. "Do you dare to go?"

Qin Yuan did not hesitate. "I dare."

With a single stroke of his sword, the Void Sovereign's head flew off, black blood splattering into the void. The Void Sovereign was slain.

Qin Yuan sheathed the Xingtian Sword and turned to fly towards the Myriad Realms Heaven Domain. Behind him, the black palace collapsed with a roar, turning into ruins.

Upon returning to the Myriad Realms Heaven Domain, Qin Yuan announced the death of the Void Ruler. The entire Myriad Realms Heaven Domain rejoiced for three days and three nights.

But Qin Yuan was not immersed in joy. The words of the Void Sovereign before his death echoed in his mind: "Above the Sea of ​​Nothingness, there is the Sea of ​​Chaos. Above the Sea of ​​Chaos, there is the Land of Origin."

He's going to take a look.

On this day, Qin Yuan stood at the highest point of the Myriad Realms Heaven Domain, gazing up at the endless void. Lin Qing'er stood beside him, holding his hand.

"Are you leaving again?" she asked softly.

Qin Yuan nodded. "I want to see what lies at the end of the Dao."

Lin Qing'er was silent for a moment. "I'll go with you."

Qin Yuan looked at her. "It's dangerous."

Lin Qing'er smiled. "With you here, I'm not afraid."

Qin Yuan smiled too. "Okay. Let's go together then."

The two held hands and flew into the depths of the void. Behind them, the golden light of the Myriad Realms gradually faded away, eventually turning into a single point of light.

Ahead lies a world never before seen. There, there are stronger opponents, more precious opportunities, and a broader stage.

Qin Yuan's gaze remained as firm as ever.

At the edge of the Myriad Realms Heaven Domain, Qin Yuan took one last look back at that golden world.

Over ten thousand years, he grew from an outsider at the first level of the Heavenly Realm to the Heavenly Emperor of the Myriad Realms, protecting the Heavenly Realm. He defeated the Void Evil Emperor and slew the Void Ruler, bringing unprecedented peace to the Myriad Realms. But he knew this peace wouldn't last long. Because the Void Ruler's dying words echoed in his mind.

"Above the Sea of ​​Nothingness lies the Sea of ​​Chaos. Above the Sea of ​​Chaos lies the Land of Origin. The beings there are more than ten thousand times stronger than I am."

Qin Yuan withdrew his gaze and took Lin Qing'er's hand. "Let's go."

The two crossed the golden boundary of the Myriad Realms and stepped into the black void. After flying for an unknown period of time, the blackness ahead gradually faded, replaced by a chaotic light. The light had no fixed shape; sometimes it surged like clouds and mist, sometimes like surging waves, and sometimes it dissipated into countless points of light.
