An Lin was in a very peculiar state.
He opened his eyes to discover that there were no whites left in his eyes. Instead, they had all become black, and his field of vision was pitch-black, as if he couldn't see anything at all.
However, he felt like he could sense everything in this world.
It was as if he could sense everything between heaven and earth if he wanted to understand it.
He could see Xu Xiaolan looking at him with a concerned expression. He could see his friends and comrades fighting a bloody battle in the Wind Plain State. He could see the Heavenly Light Goddess using photons to analyze his state of darkness.
What kind of feeling is this …
What a strange feeling …
He didn't know how to describe it.
If he had to describe it, there was one word that was more appropriate.
That was, he was omnipotent!
However, there was a prerequisite.
That was, he had to abandon his past as a human. He had to sever all of his beast pets and servants, as well as all of his memories with all of his acquaintances. He had to become one with heaven and earth and become the Heavenly Dao!
"Omniscience, omnipotence … What a tempting power …"
An Lin murmured to himself in a calm and ethereal voice.
Heaven and earth changed color at his words, and the entire dark sky trembled in response.
He could experience that feeling now. He could control everything and transcend the natural order of life. This was an extremely wonderful feeling, and every single cell in his body was jumping with joy. All of them yearned to forever remain in that state of the Heavenly Dao. This was a type of ultimate evolution, an absolute sublimation!
An Lin's choice to become the Heavenly Dao seemed to be the most correct one.
"The most correct choice?
"Becoming the Heavenly Dao is indeed wonderful …"
Heaven and earth suddenly fell silent.
Ordinary mighty figures at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage transcending their tribulations to the Dao Integration Stage were all earth-shattering events. However, it was exceptionally quiet when it came to An Lin. Heaven and earth had fallen silent, and everything was waiting for An Lin to make a decision.
This decision seemed to be the key to whether or not An Lin's tribulation transcendence would succeed.
"But …"
An Lin smiled, and his smile was imbued with a prideful sense of defiance. "Why should I have to abandon everything in order to become the Heavenly Dao? Only children make choices. I'm already an adult, I … "
"I want everything!!!"
An Lin's voice fell, and heaven and earth fell into a momentary silence.
This answer caused the Heavenly Dao to pause for a moment.
The Heavenly Earth God and the Heavenly Sea God's eyes widened in disbelief as they stared at the white-robed man.
This An Lin …
Was he crazy?!
Where did his confidence come from?
They really dared to choose!
Xu Xiaolan seemed to have sensed something. She looked at the darkness in the distance and revealed a beautiful smile.
Rumble!
For the first time, a thunderous sound came from the dark and tranquil sky. It was as if the wrath of the heavens was about to descend upon the frail man.
An Lin spread his arms wide and roared at the sky.
"Come on! No matter what tribulation it is, I can withstand it! "
The sky continued to rumble, and the pressure grew stronger and stronger.
It was obvious that it was furious. The Heavenly Dao wanted to become a god, but An Lin actually rejected it. How could it not be furious?
The darkness suddenly split open, and a dark divine seal appeared from the crack. Like a bolt of heavenly lightning, it crashed down and exploded on An Lin's body!
"Divine punishment has descended!" the Heavenly Sea God let loose a cry of surprise.
The Heavenly Earth God's eyes lit up. If he were to piss off the heavens like this, he would definitely suffer a backlash, even if this was the Heavenly Darkness God.
It would be best if An Lin perished from this backlash. That would save him a lot of trouble.
As the energy exploded, An Lin's bloodcurdling cries also erupted. His cries were filled with pain and agony, and the Heavenly Earth God felt as if he had heard the voice of a celestial being.
However, as he listened, he realized that something was off. Why did this sound … feel a little good?
The Heavenly Earth God turned toward An Lin again, upon which an inky-black divine seal appeared behind him, exuding an extremely terrifying power.
"How could this be … He absorbed the divine seal?"
Right at this moment, another earth-shattering boom erupted, and another divine seal tore through the darkness like a bolt of heavenly lightning before crashing viciously into An Lin's fist.
An Lin's pained but exhilarated voice sounded again.
Immediately afterward, a peculiar divine seal constructed from black lines appeared on his fist, upon which his aura became even more powerful …
Boom!
The Divine Seal continued to descend, smashing into his chest, and then remaining on his body, causing his strength to increase by a few more notches ….
The Heavenly Earth God was completely dumbstruck.
He felt like things weren't progressing the way he had imagined them to.
Wasn't he supposed to infuriate the Heavenly Dao and unleash divine punishment?
This divine seal didn't look like it was punishing an enemy!
This was clearly funding his enemy and helping him become more powerful!
Perhaps it was because it was also a paramount Heavenly God that had some connection to the Heavenly Dao, but the Heavenly Earth God suddenly understood what the Heavenly Dao was really thinking.
An Lin was demanding an exorbitant price. He wanted both his status as a human and the power of the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao was going to give him a taste of what it felt like to have both of them!
The Heavenly Earth God was dealt a second blow.
His entire body was like a lemon.
"Why? Why does the Heavenly Dao favor darkness so much?
"One dares to demand, and the other dares to give. What's wrong with the Heavenly Dao?"
The Heavenly Earth God was a little dazed.
The Heavenly Sea God was even more astonished, and he almost fell into a state of deep self-doubt.
What was going on? Hadn't An Lin obtained the power of darkness by sacrificing his life? Why was he becoming more powerful now, and it looked like he was making a breakthrough?
Could it be that the power of darkness he had just used was just his normal power?
Had the Heavenly Sea God been scared by his own speculation?
How could An Lin be so powerful? This was clearly an incomplete Heavenly God of Darkness!
And now, he was even more powerful! Who could stop him now?
The Heavenly Sea God was panicking, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only transmit his voice to An Lin, "Go, Brother An Lin! Don't worry about your safety, I'll protect you even if I have to give up my life!"
An Lin ignored the Heavenly Sea God's words. He was trying his best to absorb the power of each and every divine seal. He could feel that his divine dao of darkness was being perfected and reaching a new peak!
These divine seals were all blessings bestowed upon him by the Heavenly Dao.
For normal mighty figures at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage, they would be considered to have successfully progressed to the Dao Integration Stage after receiving the approval of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. However, An Lin didn't need the approval of the Heavenly Dao at all.
He was the heavens!
He had to walk his own path as long as he was acknowledged by the heavens!
Not only did An Lin not suffer a calamity like this, which should have been punished by the heavens, he even received one powerful divine seal after another.
That's right, the heavens were bestowing upon An Lin the title of a god, and these divine seals were the cornerstones of his ascension!
One hour later.
An Lin had fused countless divine seals of darkness together to form a chaotic vortex that revolved endlessly behind him.
He opened his eyes, and his pupils returned to their original black and white state. His lips parted slightly.
"From this day forth …
"I am darkness.
"I, An Lin, am the paramount Heavenly God!!!"
His voice reverberated throughout the entire continent and into the ears of countless living beings.
"It's too dark."
An Lin waved a hand toward the sky, and the curtain of darkness that struck fear into the hearts of countless living beings within a radius of hundreds of millions of kilometers instantly disappeared!
At that moment, An Lin had successfully progressed to the Dao Integration Stage!
