Chapter 662: Uniting with the Heavenly Dao, the Dao Ancestor Revives

When Great Emperor Tian'e saw the Old Daoist in front of her, she bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, Heavenly Venerate."

This Old Daoist who appeared in the Great Hall was precisely the founder of the Chan School, Primordial Heavenly Venerate, one of the Dao Ancestor's Personal Disciples, and one of the Three Pure Ones of the Daoist Sect.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate stared at her expressionlessly and asked, "You have been with Han Jue for so long, what did you talk about?"

Great Emperor Tian'e replied, "We just chatted casually."

"Why is the E Clan stopped in the Underworld, not continuing the attack?"

"The E Clan also needs rest and recuperation; they cannot fight for long periods."

"Is that so?"

"If Heavenly Venerate does not believe me, you can dispatch Chan School Disciples to provide support."

Primordial Heavenly Venerate did not answer.

Great Emperor Tian'e sneered inwardly, did he truly take her for a foolish pawn to be used casually?

The atmosphere fell silent.

After a long time.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate seemed to see through Great Emperor Tian'e, dropped a few words, and then vanished:

"This attack on the Heavenly Dao is an opportunity we gave the E Clan. If the E Clan does not cherish it, we can find other races. Although your E Clan is strong in the Guixu Divine Realm, it cannot compare to the races created by the Chaos Demon Gods in the Chaos."

"I will keep watching you."

Great Emperor Tian'e did not take Primordial Heavenly Venerate's threat to heart at all.

Now, she only had Han Jue in her heart, and she was absolutely obedient to him. Even if Han Jue told her to directly confront a Great Dao Sage, she would not hesitate.

Great Emperor Tian'e walked to her Meditation Cushion and sat down, starting to Cultivate while waiting for Venerable Xuandu's reply.

At the same time.

Venerable Xuandu summoned all the Saints, and Han Jue also went.

He had to speak up for Great Emperor Tian'e, lest the Saints disbelieve her.

Inside the Qiankun Hall, Venerable Xuandu repeated Great Emperor Tian'e's words.

"The E Clan wants to station themselves in the Underworld? And return half of the Underworld?" South Pole Heavenly Venerate frowned, his face filled with anger.

The other Saints were also confused.

Han Jue spoke, "Perhaps the E Clan also doesn't want to be constrained by the Great Dao Sages, which is why they haven't attacked the Mortal Realm. We can agree to this. After all, the Underworld is already controlled by the E Clan; looking at the state of the war, the E Clan is making concessions."

Hearing this, Qiu Xilai immediately said, "Since that is the case, we can try to agree."

Wu Fa Heavenly Venerate said, "Fellow Daoist Han makes sense."

Sect Master Tianjue said, "I second that."

Li Daokong said, "The Sect Leader is right."

Shi Duxiao glanced at them, deep in thought.

Great Emperor Xiao narrowed his eyes, falling into contemplation.

Venerable Xuandu gave Han Jue a meaningful glance.

Han Jue remained indifferent and was not afraid of being suspected. In any case, the current Heavenly Dao was essentially under his control, and if Venerable Xuandu was smart, he wouldn't expose it.

"Since that is the case, let us agree to her terms first and observe the E Clan's subsequent actions."

Venerable Xuandu pondered aloud. The Saints had no objections, and the discussion concluded.

Just as Han Jue was about to leave, Fang Liang sent him a voice transmission: "Grandmaster, could you come to my Heavenly Dao Palace for a chat?"

Han Jue immediately teleported into the Heavenly Dao Palace, and Fang Liang appeared afterward.

The Restrictions within the Heavenly Dao Palace were meaningless to Han Jue.

Fang Liang felt a secret tremor in his heart. Just how strong was his Grandmaster now?

It was already public knowledge that Han Jue was a Free and Unfettered Saint, but all the Saints knew that Han Jue's speed of getting stronger was extremely exaggerated. After so many years, he must be even more powerful.

Han Jue stared at Fang Liang, waiting for him to speak.

Fang Liang asked, "It is rare for you to proactively speak up. Could Great Emperor Tian'e's concession be related to you?"

Han Jue countered, "Is it important?"

Fang Liang said, "Naturally, it is important. Once the E Clan is allowed to be stationed in the Heavenly Dao, they will sooner or later integrate. Great Emperor Tian'e might even use the E Clan's Heavenly Dao fortune to become a Heavenly Dao Sage."

Han Jue did not respond.

Fang Liang said, "Grandmaster, with the help of the Saints, I have gathered all the fragments of the jade disc of creation. I am preparing to Uniting with the Dao, and simultaneously perform Fusion with the spirit of the heavenly dao, to prevent the spirit of the heavenly dao from causing complications."

Han Jue asked, "After Uniting with the Dao, what benefits will the Heavenly Dao gain?"

"Unlike the Dao Ancestor's Uniting with the Dao, I have decided to emulate Pangu, transforming my body into the Heavenly Dao, expanding the Heavenly Dao's Domain, and helping the Heavenly Dao grow stronger," Fang Liang said seriously.

Han Jue frowned and asked, "Did the Dao Ancestor tell you to do this?"

"No, it's my own idea."

"How do you know that your idea wasn't bestowed upon you by the Dao Ancestor? You have already become the Dao Ancestor's Incarnation, and now you want to merge into the Heavenly Dao. No matter how I look at it, there is no benefit for you; you are entirely paving the way for the Dao Ancestor."

Han Jue couldn't help but advise him, feeling that the path Fang Liang was taking was becoming increasingly skewed.

Although Fang Liang had somewhat betrayed the Hidden Gate, he had never schemed against Han Jue or targeted the Hidden Gate. He had only nominally left the Hidden Gate and had not become enemies with it. Under these circumstances, Han Jue still wanted to help him.

Fang Liang fell silent.

Han Jue left, dropping a final statement: "Think carefully about what you truly seek. Are you merely pursuing the fulfillment of the Dao Ancestor's last wish? If so, what are you? Are you still Fang Liang?"

Fang Liang frowned deeply. Han Jue's words touched his Soul.

He suddenly felt a sense of awakening.

What exactly was he doing?

…Returning to the Hundred Peaks Immortal River, Han Jue immediately used the Evolution Function:

"What will happen to the Heavenly Dao after Fang Liang Unites with the Dao?"

[Requires deducting ten billion years of lifespan. Continue?]

Continue!

Han Jue then entered the Evolution Illusion.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself Outside the Thirty-Third Heaven.

Dazzling light shone downward from above, illuminating the entire Outside the Thirty-Third Heaven.

Han Jue saw the Saints, all standing in front of the Qiankun Hall, looking up.

He followed their gaze upward, and at the center of the dazzling light was a figure.

Fang Liang!

Fang Liang was Uniting with the Dao!

A vast pressure descended, an aura far surpassing that of a Free and Unfettered Saint!

Han Jue narrowed his eyes.

He saw Fang Liang's form changing.

Something was wrong.

"Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"

The Saints suddenly shouted in unison, kneeling down one after another, their expressions filled with excitement.

Han Jue frowned.

"During the time I was away, the Heavenly Dao was guarded by you. You have done well, and I am very pleased."

A沧桑 voice sounded, no longer Fang Liang's voice.

The Dao Ancestor!

The true Dao Ancestor!

What was going on?

Was Fang Liang truly used as a target?

Han Jue's frown deepened. He could not deduce everything about the Dao Ancestor; he was only able to deduce the Dao Ancestor this time because it was related to Fang Liang.

It seemed the Dao Ancestor was not entirely beyond deduction. As long as one found an existence with significant Karma linked to him, one could deduce the Dao Ancestor, though only fragments of the Dao Ancestor within that specific Karma.

Just then, the dazzling light suddenly expanded, enveloping the entire Outside the Thirty-Third Heaven.

"Dao Ancestor! What are you trying to do?"

Venerable Xuandu exclaimed, his tone filled with dread.

Han Jue turned his head and saw that the Saints' Magic Power was being sucked out of their bodies, surging toward the lofty Dao Ancestor.

"I wish for the Heavenly Dao to occupy the entirety of the Chaos. I apologize for inconveniencing you all. From today onward, the Heavenly Dao shall have no more Saints."

The Dao Ancestor's voice was incredibly calm, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

The Evolution Illusion ended.

Han Jue opened his eyes, his brows tightly furrowed.

Sure enough, Fang Liang was a chess piece, a piece that had been Gu-influenced!

It seems the Dao Ancestor also possesses methods similar to the Hongmeng Heavenly Prison!

Unacceptable!

Han Jue had painstakingly managed to turn the Heavenly Dao into its current harmonious state; he could not allow the Dao Ancestor to shatter it.

Once the Dao Ancestor revives, Han Jue might not be safe within the Heavenly Dao!
