Chapter 259: Heart Demon Invasion, Zhou Chen’s Dao

However, Zhou Chen always felt that something was still missing.

He stood in the Void Realm, his eyes tightly closed, as Chaos Spiritual Energy violently surged into his body.

Gradually, Zhou Chen began to recall everything since his Transmigration.

A sudden realization dawned in his heart; he had never lacked resources on his journey, possessing countless Cultivation Techniques, Magic Treasures, Spiritual Artifacts, and Opportunities.

However, he alone lacked his own Dao.

Then… what exactly was his Dao?

The Void Realm fell into an eerie silence at this moment. Seeing Zhou Chen's state, Miao Dandan also showed a hint of worry.

The Dao that can be told is not the eternal Dao.

Unknowingly, Zhou Chen's consciousness had returned to his previous life, to a scene of him playing games in an internet cafe.

Dao Xuan also seemed to notice Zhou Chen's abnormality. If he didn't wake up in time, he might be invaded by a Heart Demon. However, at this moment, no one else could help; he could only rely on himself to get through it.

Zhou Chen was currently operating his game in the internet cafe, completely unaware of any abnormality, thinking he had just had a very long dream as he prepared to push the minion wave into the enemy's high ground.

Suddenly, the voice of his good bro, Duzi, came from beside him.

“Haha, bro, this is too funny! I saw a joke online. It said that Foot Dao is also a Dao, and hand technique is also a Law. This new generation of netizens is really too talented!”

Hearing this, Zhou Chen felt something was wrong.

Between him and his buddies, they always used nicknames and would never call each other 'bro' so formally; it felt too distant.

However, it was that last sentence that truly woke Zhou Chen up.

Indeed!

The Dao that can be told is not the eternal Dao.

All things have their Dao, and all conditioned things are like Laws.

Boom!!!

Zhou Chen understood instantly.

Thump, thump, thump.

His renewed heartbeat sounded like the rhythmic beating of war drums.

Zhou Chen snapped awake. Duzi's two sentences resonated in his mind like a magnificent Daoist sound, exploding with a bang, as if a bolt of thunder had instantly split the Chaos.

“My Dao… intercepting opportunities, intercepting the vitality of heaven and earth, intercepting the opportunities of all things… Intercepting Dao. Hahahaha! You stupid Duzi, I've realized it! Hahahaha!”

Zhou Chen shouted in a low voice, his eyes suddenly shooting out golden light. The dormant spiritual energy within his body suddenly surged back, condensing into a mysterious rune at his Dantian. That rune seemed broken yet not broken, connected yet not connected; it was precisely the Law of Intercepting Dao.

In the next instant, Zhou Chen raised his hand and pointed a finger.

The terrifying power of the Law tore through the air. Everywhere it passed, space was actually sliced open, revealing the distorted void behind it.

The Space Law shackles that originally entwined Zhou Chen's body actually snapped inch by inch under this finger, turning into a sky full of light specks.

Within his Dantian, the prototype of a tiny world began to emerge.

It was a chaotic void with nothing but an endless grey mist.

But in the next second, the power of the heart of the world tree flooded in, and the first ray of light appeared in the Chaos.

“World, let there be light!”

With a thought from Zhou Chen, a blinding light erupted in the Chaos, dispelling all darkness.

The earth began to condense, born from nothingness.

The sky began to take shape, a blue canopy covering the entire world.

Mountains rose from the ground, rivers rushed down, plants grew from the soil, and small yet real living beings began to gradually appear.

Everything was created from nothing, born within this Small World!

“The Small World… is complete!”

Zhou Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and a dazzling divine light erupted from them. Two golden pillars of light shot out from his pupils, instantly piercing through the secret chamber's Formation.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, the shackles of the Quasi-Emperor Realm within his body completely shattered, and Zhou Chen officially stepped into the Emperor Realm.

However, this aura had not yet finished.

First Layer of Emperor Realm!

Emperor Realm Second Layer!

Under Zhou Chen's massive accumulation, he actually broke through consecutively to the Emperor Realm Second Layer.

More importantly, he had successfully condensed a Small World!

Zhou Chen closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the Small World.

It was a world spanning hundreds of thousands of miles, with heaven and earth, mountains and waters.

In the sky hung a small sun and a miniature bright moon; day and night alternated, and the mountains and rivers flowed incessantly.

On the land, mountains rose and fell, rivers crisscrossed, and vegetation flourished.

There were even some low-level Spirit Beasts running around. Although their intelligence was not high, they were indeed living, breathing lives!

“So this is the Small World…”

Zhou Chen murmured to himself, his eyes full of shock.

He felt that he was the Dominator of this world; with a single thought, he could change everything in it!

He could instantly make the sky rain, make the earth crack, make the mountains shift, and make the rivers flow backward!

In this world, he was like a god!

Zhou Chen also noticed that at the very core of the Small World, a faint wisp of Chaos Origin was constantly brewing and growing stronger.

It originated from Zhou Chen's Chaos Spiritual Energy.

Following Zhou Chen's Breakthrough, the Pluto Seal automatically broke through to the second layer. With every movement, Zhou Chen felt filled with explosive power, as if he could shatter stars with a single punch.

However, before he had time to carefully experience it,

abnormal movements began to appear in the void.

Above King Mings Immortal Mansion, the originally pitch-black sky suddenly lit up.

Stars twinkled across the sky, each one emitting a brilliant light, illuminating the night as if it were day.

“What's going on?!”

The Cultivators inside the Immortal Mansion looked up one after another, watching the phenomenon in the sky.

But the phenomenon was not over yet.

Ten suns suddenly appeared in the sky!

Ten Suns in the Sky!

Ten suns hung side by side in the sky, emitting terrifying heat that seemed to bake the surrounding space until it distorted.

“Is this… an ancient phenomenon?!”

An elder with extensive knowledge exclaimed, “Legend has it that the phenomenon of Ten Suns in the Sky only appears when a peerless Prodigy is born!”

“Who on earth is breaking through?!”

Everyone was shocked.

But the phenomenon was still not over.

From the east, purple Qi surged forth, stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles!

Purple Qi from the East!

The purple Qi was dazzling and brilliant, containing endless auspiciousness. Everywhere it passed, all things grew, and withered trees met spring.

“Purple Qi from the East—this is a sign of a peerless Emperor Realm being born!”

The Cultivators exclaimed one after another.

But in the next second, an even more terrifying phenomenon appeared.

The entire world seemed to have turned upside down.

Mountains hung inverted in the air, rivers flowed upward, and the sky and earth swapped positions.

Mountains and Rivers Inverted!

This was a sign of recognition from heaven and earth, representing that someone had broken through the shackles of the world and condensed a power that surpassed common logic!

“A Small World! Someone must have condensed a Small World!”

An elder said with a trembling voice, his eyes full of shock and envy, “This old man has lived for three thousand years, and this is the first time I've seen such a phenomenon!”

“Legend has it that only by condensing a Small World while breaking through to the Emperor Realm can such a terrifying phenomenon be triggered. This is a Supreme Immortal Talent!”

“I can die with no regrets! No regrets in this life!”

“Who is this person?! Since when did the Eastern Wasteland produce such a Prodigy?!”

The entire Eastern Wasteland was shaken.

Jiang Wudao looked at the phenomenon in the sky, his face turning ashen.

“A Small World… someone actually managed to condense a Small World…”

He gritted his teeth, his eyes full of jealousy as he said, “Why couldn't this Genius be someone from my Jiang Family?!”
