Supreme Nine Suns defeats the Nether King and thanks Xu Zimei for his assistance. Afterwards, Xu Zimei departs, contemplating the impact of his actions. He then turns his attention to the imminent arrival of the Yuan Central Continent and its impending integration with the Nine Domains World, observing the celestial anomalies that precede their union.
"What... what is that?" someone asked, pointing to the sky with utter astonishment.The shape of the Yuan Central Continent was already visible, not to mention the other continents.Residents of the Heaven Extreme Realm could simply gaze upwards to see it with clarity.It appeared as though an entire planet was descending upon them.The sheer weight of the oppression and shock was something never before experienced.It felt like standing directly below and facing a planet head-on.This was a level of shock that defied any description.For ordinary mortals, it provoked sheer panic.Even cultivators of lower levels could not obtain much specific information."Is this the end of the world, or is there another purpose behind this?""The price of grain in the city has skyrocketed, and now you tell me this colossal object will descend, potentially leading to everyone's demise.What value do fame and fortune hold then?""I heard that East City has already descended into chaos, with whispers that this celestial phenomenon signifies the world's doom.Order and law have become meaningless; it's just a final revelry.""They've all gone mad."These were the reactions of the common folk; some were filled with anxiety, while others used the ensuing chaos to pursue their own selfish aims.As for some of the more powerful individuals,they had actually harbored suspicions beforehand.Alternatively, the True Martial Great Emperor had never concealed his ambition to challenge Heaven.Consequently, many influential figures were aware of his intentions.Everyone paid heightened attention to this development.After all, it had been many eras since anyone dared to defy Heaven.Even though some harbored secret desires, they lacked the courage to take such a step.This was particularly true for those who had reached the Three Corpses Realm or even attained Enlightenment.They could sense the uncertainty of the path that lay ahead.It felt as though they had reached an impasse.An unseen barrier seemed to impede their progress from above.Yet, they were unable to breach it.This was because doing so would mean confronting Heaven directly, and no one possessed the nerve to face the Heavenly Dao head-on.This was a primary reason,and it was also due to the immense scale of the Nine Domains World.Enlightenment represented the absolute pinnacle.To surpass this limit, one had to depart from the Nine Domains World.In millions of years, no one had achieved this feat.Thus, many turned their gazes toward the True Martial Great Emperor, eager to witness the extent of his capabilities.Many, despite their own fear of challenging Heaven, secretly hoped for the True Martial Great Emperor's success.At the very least, it would offer everyone a glimmer of hope.If he could vanquish the Heavenly Dao and unlock the gates of the Nine Domains World, that would be the ideal outcome....At this precise moment, as the Yuan Central Continent finally stabilized,the True Martial Great Emperor drew a profound breath, his excitement palpable.Despite having meticulously planned and prepared for countless eventualities numerous times before,the sensation of witnessing its successful execution was profoundly different.Standing beside him, the Great Emperor of the Three Blades and the Divine Travel Great Emperor also displayed visible excitement."Ancestor, shall we now unveil the Yuan Central Continent?" inquired the Great Emperor of the Three Blades.The True Martial Great Emperor gave a nod.He then gazed upwards at the firmament, observing that it remained entirely serene.The Heavenly Dao appeared unconcerned, permitting events to unfold.However, the True Martial Great Emperor understood that the Heavenly Dao would not passively accept this outcome."Once the Yuan Central Continent is revealed, innumerable indigenous beings will pour into the Nine Domains World.""I foresee that in the ensuing period, the Nine Domains World will become considerably more vibrant, especially our Heaven Extreme Realm,"the Divine Travel Great Emperor remarked with a chuckle.The True Martial Great Emperor offered little in response, swiftly commencing hand seals.A formidable aura emanated from him.This was no common aura; it radiated outwards like the boundless, immeasurable power of the Great Dao.Within this manifestation of the Great Dao's power, a figure began to take shape indistinctly.It was a colossal giant.A giant whose head touched the heavens and whose feet were planted in the underworld.Despite its hazy form, the aura projected by this giant was awe-inspiring to all observers.Furthermore, the power of the Great Dao surged skyward, agitating the very essence of the heavens, as if capable of total annihilation.Upon closer examination, one would discern several striking resemblances between the giant and the True Martial Great Emperor."True Martial True Fate."This was identified as the True Fate of the True Martial Great Emperor.An individual's True Fate serves as one of their most significant power sources.Generally, it manifests in a form that the individual is most familiar with.Some might manifest blades and swords, others the sun and moon, and still others storms and lightning.The True Martial Great Emperor, however, embodied himself within his True Fate."I am my True Fate!"This particular approach carries both advantages and disadvantages.The primary benefit is unparalleled control and intimate familiarity with one's own True Fate.
Moreover, one's True Fate strengthens in tandem with personal growth.
However, an equally evident drawback exists.
When confronted by a powerful opponent, should the need arise to access the power of True Fate, it might prove unavailable.
Consider, for instance, this battle that challenged the heavens:
The True Martial Great Emperor had to project his True Fate onto the Yuan Central Continent.
This was the only way he could attain a power advantage over the Nine Domains World.
Instead of remaining eternally constrained within the Nine Domains World.
Upon its manifestation, the True Martial Great Emperor's True Fate became a streak of brilliant light, extending directly towards the Yuan Central Continent.
Thereafter, the True Martial True Fate appeared to forge a unique link with the Yuan Central Continent.
The True Martial Great Emperor assumed a cross-legged posture.
His True Fate commenced its transformation, creating a conduit between the heavens and the earth.
This was recognized as the Bridge of True Fate.
This interval represented the True Martial Great Emperor's period of greatest vulnerability.
Were the Heavenly Dao to launch an assault, this precise moment would be its chosen opportunity.
The Great Emperor of the Three Blades, alongside other venerable patriarchs, maintained a state of high alert.
They established a protective cordon to ensure no disruption befell the True Martial Great Emperor.
Yet, a profound silence permeated the firmament.
It was as if the Heavenly Dao offered clandestine assent to these proceedings.
Nevertheless, the inscrutable will of Heaven discouraged anyone from gambling on its intentions.
Xu Zimei emerged from the Divine Continent, ascending into the air, and came to stand before the True Martial Great Emperor.
"Your arrival significantly alleviates our concerns," the Divine Travel Great Emperor remarked with a smile.
"My presence or absence notwithstanding, I am confident True Martial Taoist Friend had already orchestrated every contingency," Xu Zimei responded.
"Once the Yuan Central Continent is accessible, should any disorder emerge, we shall require your assistance, Eternal Ancient Taoist Friend."
"Indeed," Xu Zimei affirmed with a slight nod.
He added, "I had anticipated the Heavenly Dao might intervene now, but they appear remarkably circumspect."
"The Heavenly Dao comprehends all, and I suspect it has already accounted for every possibility," the Great Emperor of the Three Blades stated.
Even though the Heavenly Dao exists beyond the mortal realm of existence,
it has borne witness to innumerable transformations and progressions across the vast expanse of time.
Its accumulated wisdom has long surpassed the comprehension of mortals.
Consequently, no one dared to dismiss the Heavenly Dao's far-reaching intellect.
Every action it undertakes is underpinned by meticulous, unending calculation.
The True Martial Great Emperor embarked on the alteration of his Destiny, a process that spanned three complete days.
Throughout these three days, numerous influential figures became aware of this momentous undertaking.
Innumerable individuals also converged from all directions, driven by a desire to witness this extraordinary, once-in-a-thousand-years event.
Finally, as the third day drew to a close,
spontaneously, an incandescent radiance erupted from the celestial expanse.
