After descending the mountain, my aloof fiancée became completely devoted to me.

He made a fierce move, the broken Judgment Blade carrying the last bit of power to clear everything, slashing towards the chaotic beam of light.

Intending to disrupt the selection process and forcibly eliminate Lin Ping!

In the abyss of nothingness, even the ancient masters of the old era were momentarily moved.

He was equally afraid of Lin Ping growing up.

With the resonance of the two World-Destroying Seals, plus the blessing of the Ancestor's selection, this kid will truly be invincible throughout the heavens.

When he settles the score of countless ages, he will surely die!

Ignoring the excruciating pain of the World-Destroying Seal within him tearing apart his very essence, the former master mobilized all the remaining power of the old path.

Thousands of gray divine chains burst forth from the sky, entwining the void, attempting to bind the chaotic beam of light and interfere with the selection process.

Two ancient supreme warriors, both severely injured, put aside all grudges and joined forces once again!

With a shared goal, they would thwart Lin Ping's ultimate opportunity!

"court death."

A cold glint flashed in Lin Ping's eyes.

He temporarily withdrew just now because he was wary of the unknown power of the progenitor and wanted to observe the situation.

But these two defeated generals dared to take advantage of the chaos to launch a sneak attack, attempting to ruin his opportunity!

It's utterly ridiculous.

"Master, I'll stop him!"

Zhu Xiaohan flashed, and the power of the great formation soared into the sky.

Layer upon layer of array patterns stretched across the sky, instantly binding the countless ancient divine chains.

The array patterns flickered violently, forcefully locking down the movement of all the divine chains.

"Time-space sealing!"

As Wan Yue's jade-like hands danced, the entire void instantly froze.

The trajectory of the Heavenly Judgment Blade was firmly imprisoned by the power of spacetime, making it impossible for it to advance even an inch.

"Heavenly Fire Burns the Dao!"

Alu leaped into the air, and a torrent of heavenly fire, hundreds of feet long, poured down.

It scorched the remaining power of the Heavenly Dao's rules, continuously dissolving the power of the Judgment Blade.

"The Gu Devours the Source!"

With a soft shout, Shen Aoxue unleashed thousands of her natal Gu worms.

It surged into the wound of the Heavenly Dao Golden Body, frantically devouring his remaining primordial soul.

Four attacks, precise and ruthless, instantly suppressed the sneak attacks of the two supreme forces.

Lin Ping gripped his longsword, his figure steady and unwavering, allowing the chaotic beam of light to envelop him.

He raised his eyes and coldly stared at the two disheveled rulers in the heavens.

"They refuse to admit defeat, and resort to sneak attacks when they lose."

"You have reigned over all the heavens for eternity, yet your methods are so despicable."

The Heavenly Dao Lord roared in fury, "I am the rightful ruler of all heavens, and I will not tolerate you, a rebellious son, stealing my way!"

The former master coldly rebuked, "The selection was unfair! This child is a descendant of my old regime; he shouldn't have escaped my control!"

Lin Ping laughed loudly, his laughter echoing throughout the heavens.

"An orphan? A legitimate heir?"

"From beginning to end, my path, my destiny, are solely in my own hands!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he stopped suppressing the surging power within him.

The two World-Destroying Seals resonated completely, and the old and new World-Destroying Origins merged perfectly.

The originally fragile foundation of the Dao was rapidly stabilized and sublimated under the scouring of the beam of light selected by the Ancestor.

The fundamental hidden dangers left by the previous tug-of-war were instantly repaired!

Not only that.

The six paths of the same origin, under the baptism of the power of chaos, completed their ultimate transformation.

The Way of Affection binds us, the Way of Annihilation shatters the heavens, the Way of Time and Space escapes all laws, the Way of Arrays suppresses the universe, the Way of Heavenly Fire burns away illusions, and the Way of Gu devours the source!

The six Great Daos merged, transforming into a unique, eternally defying Dao True Form!

hum!

A terrifying aura, far surpassing both the old and new Heavenly Dao, erupted from Lin Ping's body.

White clothes fluttering in the wind, black hair flying in the air.

The young man's posture remained upright, and his aura surpassed that of all ages!

The Heavenly Judgment Blade, which was bound by time and space, shattered on its own with a crack.

The ancient Daoist chains, locked by the great formation, were annihilated inch by inch, turning into ashes.

The two supreme powers' most prized ultimate attacks were utterly ineffective against the transformed power of the reverse path!

The Heavenly Dao Master's pupils shrank suddenly, his face filled with disbelief.

"With a solid foundation... the Great Dao is undergoing a transformation!"

"You achieved the ultimate breakthrough through the selection of the progenitors?!"

The voice of the ancient master from the old era trembled completely, filled with regret.

He finally understood.

From beginning to end, their protracted struggles, joint suppression, and sneak attacks were all a joke.

Not only did they fail to wear Lin Ping down, they also indirectly forced out the resonance of the two seals, helping him to trigger the selection of the progenitor and complete a heaven-defying transformation!

He picked up a stone and smashed it against his own foot!

This is an absolute slap in the face, and there's no denying it!

"Now, it's time to settle our accounts."

Lin Ping raised his sword, his fingertips lightly touching the sky.

The transformed sword light, gentle yet domineering, instantly traversed thousands of miles of void.

First, it points to the dilapidated golden body of the Heavenly Dao.

"You offer countless mortals as sacrifices, seeking to sever my bonds and destroy my people."

"For this crime, your divine status in the Heavenly Dao shall be revoked!"

A light sweep of the sword.

There was no earth-shattering roar, only the silent annihilation of the Dao principles.

The Heavenly Dao Lord's ten-thousand-foot-tall golden body trembled violently, and countless cracks instantly appeared on the eternal Heavenly Dao Divine Spark hanging above his head.

That supreme divine authority, representing the orthodoxy of all heavens and in charge of the order of all things, is crumbling inch by inch!

"No!! My divinity!"

The Heavenly Dao Lord let out a heart-wrenching wail, frantically mobilizing his remaining power to salvage the situation, but to no avail.

Going against the natural order overcomes all laws; going against the natural order breaks through orthodoxy!

Everything he relied on for his livelihood was easily destroyed by Lin Ping!

In the blink of an eye, the eternal Heavenly Dao has fallen from its pedestal!

Immediately afterwards, Lin Ping's sword flashed, locking onto the ancient master of the old era in the Void Abyss.

"You have abandoned me as a chess piece, seeking to control my destiny and seize my path."

"He secretly plots for eternity, regarding all living beings as ants and me as mere objects."

"This sin has shattered your original path!"

Another sword fell.

The original body, constructed from the gray old road, instantly exploded and shattered into pieces.

The world-destroying seal that had run rampant within the ancient body completely spiraled out of control, turning against itself.

The endless black mist engulfed his remaining body, bringing his once supreme and dominant body to the brink of collapse.

"I'm not reconciled!!"

The former master let out the first fierce roar in all time.

He orchestrated countless schemes, patiently biding his time, only to ultimately bring about the downfall of his greatest enemy.

The two eternally powerful beings, one with his divine status destroyed and the other with his very essence shattered, were both critically injured and on the verge of death.

They completely dominated the entire match, offering no chance to fight back!

Four women stood beside him, their eyes filled with dazzling light and endless tenderness.

This is their husband, their ruler.

He defied the laws of heaven, shattered the old order, and was unmatched throughout the ages!

From the depths of the universe, the ethereal voice of the progenitor resounded once more.

"Selection complete, reaching the summit against all odds."

"The old and new chess games are obsolete, and the rules of eternity are reforged."

As soon as he finished speaking, the chaotic beam of light slowly receded.

But that supreme ancestral aura did not dissipate.

Instead, it became increasingly clear, enveloping the entire heavens.

Immediately afterwards, a sentence that made Lin Ping frown slightly and the two heavily injured overlords despaired completely came over.

"Reaching the top is not the end; the selection process involves two rounds."

"The first round is to choose the rebel; the second round is to settle all ancient ties and choose the most beloved beings in the heavens."

boom!

New rules have arrived with a bang!

Lin Ping was startled.

To choose between loved ones and to sever ties?

He understood instantly.

The ultimate selection of the progenitors was never simply a gift of the Dao fruits.

It's a choice with no solution!

To take control of the new eternal rules, one must sever all mortal ties, abandon the four women around him, and ascend to the lofty peak of all heavens.

If one does not abandon the bonds, one will have to bear the power of eternal reckoning, be devoured by the rules of the heavens, and have one's Great Dao destroyed!

On one side is the supreme ruler of all heavens, invincible throughout the ages, who holds the reins of the universe.

On one side is his beloved, who is bound to him through thick and thin, bound by worldly ties, and watching over him year after year.

There's no solution; you have to choose one!

Zhu Xiaohan and the other three girls suddenly turned pale.

They instantly understood the meaning of the rules.

The progenitor is trying to force Lin Ping to abandon them!

The Heavenly Dao Lord, severely injured outside the heavens, suddenly burst into maniacal laughter.

"Hahaha! There's always a way out!"

"Lin Ping! I'd like to see how you, who are so proud of your rebellious spirit, will choose today!"

"Abandon the Way for love, and you become an ordinary person! Abandon love to ascend to the highest peak, and you will be lonely for life!"

"This time, let's see how you defy the heavens!"

The old master, on the verge of collapse in the void, also gave a hoarse, cold laugh.

"The selection process is timeless, and there are never two perfect outcomes... Your doom has only just begun!"

Lin Ping sheathed his sword and stood there, without the slightest hesitation in his eyes.

He turned his head to the side and looked at the four women beside him who had never abandoned him and had stood by him through thick and thin.

Looking at the gentle and wise Zhu Xiaohan, and at the clear and insightful Wanyue.

Looking at the passionate and pure Alu, and the patient and loyal Shen Aoxue.

We fought against all odds, and we were there for each other all the way.

Amidst countless calculations in the game of chess and the vicissitudes of time, only they remained steadfast and unwavering.

This is his bond, the foundation of his rebellion, all his tenderness and perseverance.

"A win-win situation? Why would I need a win-win situation?"

A resolute smile, as if defying the ages, appeared on Lin Ping's lips.

He raised his eyes to gaze at the invisible primordial figure deep within the universe, his voice resounding throughout the heavens.

"My path is born of bonds and perfected by love."

"Abandon love to reach the summit, and there will be no more obstacles!"

"Today I will tell all ages, I will tell the progenitor—"

"I, Lin Ping, would rather forsake the throne of all the heavenly emperors than betray the love of this lifetime!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the entire heavens trembled violently!

The ancient rules are in turmoil, and a new wave of reckoning, powerful enough to crush the heavens, is quietly brewing!

Unbeknownst to anyone, in the deepest part of the universe, the blurry figure of the progenitor slowly opened his eyes.

A hint of anticipation that transcends eternity, and a trace of deep-seated, eerie calculation, surfaced in his eyes.
