Chapter 292 Hongjun Returns to His Position, and Becomes the Ruler of Heaven!
"Buzz"
One day, the Chaos Green Lotus bloomed without any warning. There was no earth-shattering roar, no deafening Daoist sound, not even a ray of light. It just bloomed quietly.
Even the blooming of flowers attracts butterflies and bees, and the most inconspicuous blade of grass is spotted by deer.
The Chaos Green Lotus seed bloomed and blossomed, as if nothing had happened, so quietly and silently.
But the greatest truths are the simplest!
The simpler and more unadorned something is, the closer it is to the Tao, transcending the limitations of all dimensions.
At this moment, the Chaos Lotus was undergoing a wondrous transformation: the lotus stamen became the head, the lotus leaves became the arms and fingers, the root became the legs, the lotus stem became the eyes, and the lotus seeds became the hair.
Finally, a man appeared in the void. He was dressed in flowing blue robes, his eyes were slightly closed, and he exuded a carefree and detached air. Yet, his demeanor also gave off an air of looking down on the past and present and dominating the eternal blue sky!
"Forty-nine previous lives, return."
He spoke softly, his ancient voice deep and resonant, as if emanating from the end of reincarnation, echoing simultaneously across different eras.
"Buzz"
At this moment, all the memories and inheritances of his forty-nine previous lives condensed into a single point of light that entered his brow.
"This life."
He spoke again, and the next moment, a man in blue robes who looked exactly like her slowly walked out of the void. Their figures overlapped and gradually merged together.
"Throughout my past and present lives, I am bound by my own destiny. In this life, I live as Qinglian, and also as Zhao Gongming."
The man spoke softly.
In an instant!
A dazzling light, beyond description, emanated from his body, resonating with heaven and earth, and converging into a flawless illusory blue lotus.
The blue lotus began to swirl around Zhao Gongming. The lotus leaves, lotus roots, and stems began to disintegrate, cascading down endless chaotic light. Amidst the profound Daoist chants and brilliant collisions, the lotus leaves transformed into a blue cloak that fluttered in the wind, the lotus roots into a helmet, and the stems into a longsword. The remaining parts completely covered Zhao Gongming's entire body!
He stood tall and proud, gazing at the sky, his long sword tracing a path, his long cloak spreading out like a rainbow for hundreds of feet!
This is a god in the Nirvana Realm, standing at the pinnacle of the primordial world, a spirit that dares to contend with the Heavenly Dao!
"We can begin."
"7
Zhao Gongming's eyes were shrouded in chaotic mist. He slashed forward with his Azure Lotus Sword, and a deep crack was slashed in the boundless space!
As he stepped inside, time and space shifted, and he appeared directly in the Purple Cloud Palace!
Houtu was shocked, but she quickly composed herself and followed closely behind, appearing in the Zixiao Palace.
"I have come as promised."
He looked at Hongjun, who seemed to have been waiting there for a long time, and spoke calmly.
Hongjun sensed Zhao Gongming's presence, and his usually expressionless face began to glow. Then, he suddenly burst into laughter: "Excellent! Excellent! What a worthy protagonist! Today, I cannot let him down!"
The next moment, he roared to the sky: "I, Hongjun Daozu, have now returned to my three corpses, transcending heaven and earth, and will no longer be controlled by any being!"
boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, an enormous phantom of an earthworm appeared behind Hongjun. Immediately afterward, blood began to splatter all over his body, and the power of the Heavenly Dao within him was expelled from his body along with his blood essence!
"Splash!"
At the same time, the Heavenly Chains binding the earthworm began to shake violently, exploding into brilliant white light upon impact.
"I, Hongjun, will never submit to you! Today, I will show all living beings what the path of severing the three corpses truly is!"
A furious roar pierced the sky, Hongjun's eyes turned blood red, his veins bulged, and he suddenly broke free of a shackle!
"teacher!!!"
The sages of the heavens who heard the sound rushed over, and when they saw this scene, they were all extremely shocked!
At this moment, where was Hongjun's usual indifference, devoid of joy or sorrow, as he looked down upon all living beings?
His hairpin was broken, his hair was disheveled, and he roared in the void like a madman. His arms were covered in bloody marks, and as he struggled, the marks became deeper and deeper, with purple blood flowing down like a spring.
It can be clearly seen that under the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, Hongjun's body has revealed his bare bones. He is in great pain, and the illusory cricket behind him is extremely ferocious, letting out a roar that resounds through the sky.
Everyone was moved, even Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Zhunti Jieyin showed expressions of reluctance.
Hongjun Daozu, the first sage in the world, the teacher of all living beings, is revered by all.
But now he is like an old man in his twilight years, bleeding all over, writhing in pain under the shackles of fate, as if a gust of wind could blow him over.
Despite his loss of composure, no one laughed at him.
Because he is the Heavenly Dao Ancestor, the first Heavenly Dao Saint, and the first Heavenly Dao Saint who dared to stand up and resist the injustice of the Heavenly Dao!
"Peng Ju, Peng Zhi, Peng Qiao, return to your own body, break free from the shackles of heaven and earth, and attain the great freedom of unfettered ease!"
"The Tao is my Tao, and I am the Tao. The Tao is me; I am freed from ignorance, greed, anger, and all forms of bondage!"
Hongjun began to chant, and his withered and broken body emitted an increasingly bright light. Blood tears began to flow from his eyes as he continuously expelled the power of the Heavenly Dao from his body, and his gaze became clearer and more resolute.
"Snap, snap!"
He slowly stood up, breaking one shackle after another from the Heavenly Dao, like a raging dragon that had been overturned and suppressed, about to soar between heaven and earth!
"Snap!"
The last shackle, a cracked shackle, was suddenly broken. Hongjun soared into the sky, and a terrifying aura instantly erupted, sweeping across the nine provinces and eight wastelands!
Hunyuan Wuji Luo Jinxian.
The Primordial Supreme Limitless Golden Immortal.
Nirvana!
"Heaven-Binding Formation, activate!"
Hongjun roared, and with a wave of his hands, the world changed. A magnificent array emerged from the void, instantly encompassing the entire world, even including the River of Destiny where the Heavenly Dao resided!
"The laws of space—is this the plan devised by Yangmei and Hongjun?"
Sensing the aura emanating from the Heaven-Binding Array, Zhao Gongming's heart stirred slightly.
This grand formation contains profound spatial laws, which weakens the aura of the entire River of Life space, gradually transforming it into a space governed by the Great Dao.
In other words, it's equivalent to Zhao Gongming's Great Dao Domain. Standing within this domain, the relative strengths of the two sides fluctuate, playing a decisive role in the battle.
"Zhao Gongming!!!"
At this moment, Hongjun turned his head, his hair flying, and stared intently at Zhao Gongming. "We've fought for tens of thousands of years, acted for tens of thousands of years, and finally, we've reached the day when we fight side by side."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming smiled slightly, his entire demeanor suddenly changed, and he stepped into the Heaven-Binding Formation with Houtu and Hongjun!
At this very moment, at the very center of the great formation, an immense river of destiny flows through the universe, and at the source of this river of destiny, a bright orb of light appears and disappears.
Heaven!
The final battle has begun!
