The Holy Ancestor, attempting to escape with his True Spirit, is pursued by Xu Zimei's black hole across the Nine Domains. Abandoned by the Heavenly Dao, the Holy Ancestor is ultimately swallowed and destroyed. With the Holy Ancestor and Immortal Lord defeated, the remaining forces of the Holy Court are annihilated, and their influence is eradicated from the Robbery Immortal Domain. Xu Zimei reflects on the transient nature of power and glory as the Heavenly Dao reveals a new path: the Heaven Challenge Road.

Above the firmament.

A path of unparalleled depth through the Great Dao appeared.

That is the Heaven Challenge path.

On this path, there is no space, no time, not even any attributes.

Only an endless abyss.

No matter if you use your Divine Soul or any other method to observe.

You cannot see the end of the path.

When Xu Zimei saw that Heaven Challenge path, fear surged in his heart.

A fear of the unknown existence.

He had not felt fear in a long time.

But at this moment, in the face of the Heavenly Dao, it was as if all his power was stripped away.

Just like a mortal encountering a natural disaster.

As fragile as an ant.

Xu Zimei's gaze moved away from the Heaven Challenge path.

He knew that all fear stems from a lack of strength.

His power could still become stronger.

Currently, he has merely surpassed the Ten Million Great Dao, not yet reached the Hundred Million Daos.

For him, there is still vast room for growth.

After annihilating the Holy Court, he went to check out the Holy Court's treasure vault.

It was a magnificent and grand treasure vault.

When viewed from the outside, it was already enough to leave one astounded.

But only upon truly entering it did he realize how he had underestimated it.

The entire treasure vault was constructed using a method of spatial layering.

This vault was housed within a small world.

Such a small world was refined by powerful beings, a dead world incapable of birthing life.

Yet it is vast and enormous enough.

Within the small world, countless legendary treasures were piled up.

Multi-colored light illuminated the entire treasure vault.

Every treasure emitted its own unique aura.

Looking around, the treasures truly piled up like mountains.

Of course, that was not the end of it.

When you reach the end of the small world, do you think that's all?

At the end of the small world, there was a spatial gate.

It actually connected to other small worlds.

Such a vast space, within the entire Nine Domains, only the Holy Court would seemingly have the power to create it.

But now it all belonged to Xu Zimei.

Even Xu Zimei found himself somewhat ignorant of the treasures within.

Over the years of the Holy Court's dominance of the Nine Domains, they collected rare treasures.

It could be said that the treasures of all the other major factions combined did not equal those of the Holy Court alone.

However, Xu Zimei was not interested in most of these treasures.

He gathered all the treasures and threw them into the Divine Continent.

Later, he planned to use the power of the Divine Continent's Heavenly Dao to refine them, transforming them into treasures of his own world.

Born from Heaven and Raised by Earth kind of treasures.

But among these treasures, some were specifically for refining.

So Xu Zimei put those aside.

After all, Tyrant Shadow was still due for one final transformation.

After plundering the Holy Court.

Xu Zimei found the ring.

Previously, to save the Thousand Calamities Doomsday, he once made a deal with the person within the ring.

He never expected that, after going in circles, the ring would still end up in his hands.

The man in the green robe within the ring appeared between heaven and earth.

This time, he need not evade the Heavenly Dao.

If Xu Zimei was about to challenge heaven, the Heavenly Dao's greatest enemy would instead be Xu Zimei.

While the man in the ring was no longer the most significant concern.

"Didn't expect we'd meet again," the robed man said.

"It seems my earlier judgment was correct, you are the most suitable spokesperson."

"This world is mine now, and you have no business interfering," Xu Zimei said calmly.

He quietly wiped the bloodstains from the Tyrant Shadow Blade.

"The world source is not so easily plundered, and besides, you are in the Nine Domains World.

Even if given the world source, you couldn't use it," the robed man said.

He was unaware Xu Zimei had created the Divine Continent.

After all, creation is not something easily spoken of.

Most worlds are nearly born from the cosmos.

Initially masterless, eventually becoming someone's exclusive property.

And creation, let alone in the Nine Domains, is a rarity even in the entire cosmos.

"No need for you to worry, I will cut down the Heavenly Dao. Anyone trying to fish in troubled waters will not be spared,"

said Xu Zimei.

The robed man chuckled without disputing the matter.

Xu Zimei's few threats were naturally not enough to scare him.

And the forces behind him were certainly not pushovers either.

He did have some appreciation for talent.

Saying, "If you succeed in your Heaven Challenge and have no place to go, consider our Martial God Star."

"Our Martial God Star is one of the mighty worlds in this star region."

"Once you leave this world, you'll know our Martial God Star's reputation."

"I can formally invite you on behalf of the Wu Family now."

"We'll see about the future when the time comes," Xu Zimei replied.

"I haven't succeeded in my Heaven Challenge yet, why think of such things?"

"True, but I extend the invitation ahead, in case we find it hard to meet again."

The robed man waved his hand, and a mysterious power gathered in front, finally forming the shape of a Jade Token.

The robed man handed the Jade Pendant to Xu Zimei.

And said, "This Jade Pendant contains my identity credential."

"If you come to the Wu Family of the Martial God Star, possessing this Jade Pendant makes you an honored guest."

Xu Zimei received the token, nodding slightly.

In truth, he was quite interested in knowing more about the outside world.

But now was clearly not the best time.

Also, the robed man showed no intent to elaborate further.

After Xu Zimei took the token, the robed man's figure gradually faded.

Presumably, he understood too.

If Xu Zimei succeeded in his Heaven Challenge, wandering the Nine Domains will no longer be necessary.

......

Atop the Holy Mountain.

Behind Xu Zimei, the Lord of the Dead Spirits, Thousand Calamities Doomsday, Queen of the West, and others had also gathered.

This battle left everyone with varying degrees of injuries, but overall the conclusion was favorable.

Everyone was extremely excited at this moment.

After all, for them, a new era was about to begin.

They were undertaking a great endeavor.

Even in death, it was incredibly honorable.

"Demon Lord, when do we challenge heaven?" the Lord of the Dead Spirits couldn't help but ask.

"No rush, I am the primary force in the Heaven Challenge, are you ready?" Xu Zimei asked.

Honestly, the upcoming Heaven Challenge battle had little to do with others.

Because their trump cards were all exhausted in the recent fight with the Immortal Lord.

Facing the Heavenly Dao again, they feared they would have little to contribute.

But regardless, they would go.

Even if it meant marching to death, they would go.

To hear the Way in the morning and die in the evening is enough, perhaps that's the logic here.

"Always ready," everyone shouted in unison.

Xu Zimei looked up towards the firmament.

Took a deep breath.

And said, "Everyone, once I achieve Great Dao Completion, the Heaven Challenge begins."

"During this time, prepare yourselves well."
