“Here it comes!”

Everyone held their breath.

“Golden Cup!” The Jade Emperor aimed his pentagonal cup at the Heavenly Merit rushing toward him, and instantly absorbed it.

The four Great Emperors also employed their special magic tools to collect their Heavenly Merit.

On one side,

Compared to the people who still needed magic tools to collect Heavenly Merit,

Taishang Laojun appeared much more relaxed.

He lightly waved his whisk in his hand, and the rolling Heavenly Merit seemed to be pulled by a huge force.

Swish –

Just like that, he collected the Heavenly Merit directly into his sleeve. His movements were casual and smooth as flowing water.

This easy-going collection process made the Jade Emperor and the four Great Emperors envious.

No wonder he was the Primordial Big Senior’s incarnation; even though he pursued the ‘Extreme Dao Path’ of alchemy, the power he displayed was even more formidable than Tathagata, who had slain the Three Corpse.

Perhaps sensing the envious gazes of the crowd,

“Hahaha-” Taishang Laojun laughed heartily, then said, “Fellow Daoist Friends, there’s no need to be envious. I merely took advantage of my origin.”

“It’s getting late. Why not join me on a trip to the Mortal World and attend that brat’s Daluo Jinxian Banquet? What do you say?”

Upon hearing this,

The Jade Emperor nodded slightly, and the four Great Emperors naturally agreed.

If it were any other banquet, they wouldn’t attend in person due to their status. Even if their relationships were good, they would only send someone close to them.

But the Daluo Jinxian Banquet was different. In some ways, it was more important than establishing a Dao Court.

To attain the Daluo Jinxian realm meant becoming a great power in the Three Realms. Once they opened their own path to becoming a Sage, they would have the chance to leap to the top tier of the highest levels in the Three Realms.

In this age when sages weren’t emerging, quasi-sages were considered the first tier and generally didn’t act rashly, ruling over their territories.

On the other hand, Daluo Jinxian were considered the highest-level forces in the Three Realms, and once they broke through the quasi-sage realm, they would step out of the Three Realms structure and possess a transcendent status.

Moreover,

The protagonist of this Daluo Jinxian Banquet was Xuanqing, an extraordinary character who had achieved the Daluo realm in just a few decades.

Not only had he just attained the Daluo realm, but he had also found his own path to the Sage. What was even more terrifying was that when the path to the Sage was deduced, it caused the collapse of Heaven and Earth—an utterly horrifying revelation.

One could say…never since the beginning of the world had anyone been heard of causing the collapse of Heaven and Earth simply by deducing their own path to the Sage.

In the human world,

Inside the Great Primordial Hall,

A young Taoist priest in a Daoist robe, holding a glowing duster, sat on a cushion.

Suddenly,

The Young Man opened his eyes, and the brilliant light within disappeared in a flash, but the space in front of him twisted terrifyingly.

This young Taoist priest was Xuanqing, who had been deducing the follow-up cultivation techniques after attaining the Daluo Jinxian realm in a state of Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom.

“So that’s how it is…so that’s how it is…”

Xuanqing murmured softly.

From the beginning of the deduction to the present, it had been two full years. Under the high bonus of Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom, he finally deduced the follow-up path of cultivation.

[Ding…Congratulations to the player for deducing the Sage Art. Please name the new technique!]

The prompt in his mind brought Xuanqing back to his senses.

What name should he give it?

Xuanqing pondered.

The main direction of the technique he deduced was to devour worlds, as he had initially imagined.

To be more precise, it was to refine a world’s origin to replace one’s own Dantian, then continuously devour and refine worlds, strengthening one’s own origin.

Eventually…achieving the goal of ‘gaining sainthood by power.’

Because,

As long as the refined origin was abundant and powerful enough, even surpassing the Primordial World, the entire essence of the origin would converge in the physical body…

Each punch, each step, and even each expression would have the entire world’s origin supporting it, and the power that could be exerted would surpass the imagination of all living beings.

At that level, there would be no need for ‘Slaying the Three Corpse.’

Because the entire world, including time, space, and even essential material, had been refined, the so-called ‘slaughtering the past, present, and future’ would become meaningless.

This!

It was the path to sainthood he had realized, a new path not belonging to ‘Merit,’ ‘Extreme Dao’, or ‘Slaying the Three Corpse.’

Of course,

Xuanqing didn’t know that the Primordial World couldn’t accommodate the path he had deduced, and that the existence of this technique even led to the shattering of the 37 layers of Heaven.

If it weren’t for the intervention of Taishang Laojun, Jade Emperor, and the Four Great Emperors, the raging Chaotic Qi pouring into the Primordial World…

Perhaps the entire Primordial World and all creatures below the Great Luo realm would be destroyed.

Not to mention whether the ‘Chaotic Morality Holy Body’ could be immune to such a huge catastrophe.

At least his several decades of hard work in the Primordial World would have been destroyed in an instant.

Of course, Xuanqing knew nothing about these things. He was still racking his brains, thinking about what kind of name he should give his new cultivation technique.

After pondering for a long time!

“Since I am using the method of refining the world’s origin to prove the path of a sage…”

“Name it: Heaven Devouring Saintly Art!”

Xuanqing whispered in his heart.

[Ding, new cultivation technique named successfully: Heaven Devouring Saintly Art!]

Accompanied by a crisp prompt sound in his mind.

Boom-

Suddenly, a deafening thunderous sound echoed in the sky of the Great Primordial Hall.

At the banquet on the square.

Many immortals were still in a state of lingering fear, and they all looked at Great Immortal Zhenyuan and Fu, Lu, and Shou Three Immortals with grateful eyes.

If it hadn’t been for these great beings’ intervention, all the creatures present at the banquet would have perished under the terrifying pressure of Heaven and Earth.

However, before they could express their gratitude to Great Immortal

Zhenyuan and Fu, Lu, and Shou Three Immortals,

Suddenly!

Boom-

A deafening roar of thunder passed through the barrier of the Great Primordial Hall and echoed in the ears of all beings.

“What… What’s going on?”

“What’s happening again?”

“The Department of Thunder, where are your colleagues?”

“Master Wen Zhong, what’s going on with your Department of Thunder?

You’re scaring us to death!”

Facing the inquiries of so many immortals,

Our Nine Heavens Responding Origin Thundering Universal Transcendence was stunned for a moment, and then his face became bitter.

It’s really a big pot to carry.

But the key is that he, the boss of the Department of Thunder, also didn’t know why such a huge thunderous roar suddenly appeared.

Just when everyone was in a panic.

On the high platform.

Great Immortal Zhenyuan hurriedly floated in the air, and said to the panicked immortals, “Don’t be afraid, fellow Daoist friends.”

“The matter has been resolved. This is just some aftermath.”

As if to confirm Zhenyuan’s words,

The terrifying thunderous roars dissipated in the air after a few sounds, as if they had never existed.

Upon seeing this!

“So that’s it.”

The immortals at the banquet finally breathed a sigh of relief, patting their chests and looking at the sky with lingering fear.

Good grief.

When they came, they were all in high spirits, looking forward to eating Ginseng Fruits and Nine Thousand Years Flat Peaches, something only the great beings had access to in the past.

As a result… The banquet hadn’t even started yet, and such an accident happened, scaring them half to death. It’s simply torturous.

If they had known that this would happen, they wouldn’t have come even if there were Ginseng Fruits and Nine Thousand Years Flat Peaches. It’s just too brutal and suffering.

Just when everyone relaxed,

And thought the matter was finally over,

Accidents always come unexpectedly, otherwise, they wouldn’t be called accidents.

Following the disappearance of the thunderbolt,

The sky and the earth changed color, darkening in an instant. The sky over the entire border between Nanshan Continent and West Niu Hezhou seemed to be blocked.

The earth… fell into endless darkness.

Immediately afterwards,

Hum-

An incredibly huge and vast aura of ‘Catastrophe’, ‘Cause and Effect’, ‘Ominous’… and various other forces converged, descending from the sky.
