In order to ensure that karma stirred, and with Chen Zhaoting's deliberate instigation behind the scenes, the Elders in the Main Altar attacked all the alien races in the heavens and realms at the same time. This caused the strength of this generation to be greatly dispersed, and it was inevitable that they suffered many losses. Countless disciples died, and several Elders even lost their lives.
However, no one showed any signs of pity because of this. Instead, all of them treated it with indifference.
They had long regarded themselves as a part of the Tao, so much so that they no longer considered themselves to be human. As long as they were moving towards the goal of returning to the Tao, they felt that any price was worth it.
Chen Zhaoting had been waiting restlessly. The more the forces that worshipped the Tao suffered, the more advantageous it would be for him to act in the future. However, he was also afraid that the Elders would find out that something was wrong and grow suspicious of him. Fortunately, this did not happen.
During this period, he would visit Zhang Yan from time to time, not to ask for advice, but because he was afraid that the latter would leave.
He had cultivated for a long time, and he had relied on his own potential to cultivate to such a high level. He had almost no experience in his life, so he was still lacking in temperament. With Zhang Yan around, he was still confident and could do things step by step. However, if the latter was not around, he would very likely panic and become at a loss.
As the speed of replenishment was far lower than the rate of consumption, the Elders also briefly adjusted their strategy of attacking everywhere at the beginning. They concentrated their forces on the few territories where the demon forces were strong. This way, the casualties were greatly reduced.
Seeing this, Chen Zhaoting felt that things were not going well. If this continued, he was afraid that the demons and alien races would all be eliminated, and the Elders would not suffer any more losses.
He used the reason that he had not seen the Yuan Jade for a long time, and that he had not stirred enough karma, to urge them to speed up the elimination of the alien races.
Because he was doing this in the name of the Tao, the Elders did not have any objections, and even felt that it was very reasonable. Thus, they increased the speed of the conquest, and the casualties increased again because of this.
At one point, Chen Zhaoting was worried that the Elders would force him to go out and fight against the demons and alien races. Fortunately, he was still the Middle Hall Master in name, and could be considered the incarnation of the Tao. Therefore, before an opponent that could threaten the Main Altar appeared, there was no need for him to appear. He only needed to stand guard at the back.
After a dozen years, the number of people with profound cultivation in the Main Altar became fewer and fewer, and Chen Zhaoting knew that it was about time for him to act.
Before this, he paid another visit to Zhang Yan to strengthen his confidence. Then, he used the Middle Hall Master's name to summon an elder back and take care of him as quickly as possible. Seeing that things had gone smoothly, he tried to summon another person.
The whole thing could be said to be a daunting experience, but not a dangerous one. These elders did not think that he would do such a thing, and it was very easy for him to succeed. Once these people were removed, the rest of the people who were not as strong as him were not a concern.
After roughly a few years, he eliminated all the enemies that could pose a threat to him and took complete control of the headquarters. Thus, he came before Zhang Yan's clone and said respectfully, "Daoist priest, I've already eliminated all those people who advised me to worship the Dao. May I know what I should do now?"
Zhang Yan said calmly, "I've already made my intentions clear. For yourself, you are also a person. The Dao lies in your heart, not in external laws. If you think it's feasible, then go ahead."
Chen Zhaoting said seriously, "Elder, I understand."
After he retreated, he changed all the worlds under his rule that had living beings of the human path according to his own will. Without the interference of those elders, it was even easier to deal with the disciples below him. He directly erased the original memories and changed them to what he wanted them to see.
Almost overnight, all the disciples who originally believed in the Spirit of Creation Dao listened to him. However, he wouldn't really trust these people. He was prepared to wait for the next generation of Daoist cultivators to grow up, and then he would replace all of them.
He acted according to the rules of the Yan Sect that he saw in the jade scroll. Mortals had suffered too much in the current situation of the Worlds. No matter what he did, it was better than before. Even if there was something wrong, he would try to change it. It would not be worse than before.
In just a few decades, the Worlds that were attached to this land of creation were almost the same as the Yan Sect's rule except for the difference in the cultivation of Dao.
Zhang Yan quickly sensed that the obstruction in his deduction of the Dao Art of the Dao Art that was lacking had decreased slightly. This undoubtedly showed that it was indeed as he'd thought. Even if this world wasn't occupied by the Yan Sect, so long as the Creation Spirits here acknowledged his Dao Inheritance, then he wouldn't even have to cultivate it, and it would still be able to assist him in observing the Dao Art.
Although this world did not have the feeling of being connected to the top and bottom like when the Yan Sect was under the rule of the Yan Sect, and there might be a repetition in the future, this was undoubtedly a way to achieve the Dao. This meant that even if it was not occupied by the Yan Sect, it could still help him to see the Dao.
The Yan Sect still occupied an important position in this world because the rules in this world were completely copied from the Yan Sect's original set. This also deepened the sense of recognition of the people.
If there was no Yan Sect first, then there would be no reference for Chen Zhaoting's actions, and there would be a layer of separation.
He could not help but think that if the Yan Sect and this method of imparting Dao worked together, then the effect would be much more than before.
It was just that this place might require his incarnation to go. If it was a disciple, it would also be effective, but there would undoubtedly be more estrangement from the world than before. Obviously, this kind of Dao of the missing Dao required Bhadanta to stoop down and personally search for it in the mortal world.
With this thought, he already had a plan in his heart. If he came down and found such a place again, if the Dao of the Spirit of Creation was still the mainstream, then he should consider using this method.
Among them, the one that could be guided the most was the incarnation of the spirits of creation. In the eyes of those who worshiped the Dao of the Spirit of Creation, they were the closest to the Dao. However, in his eyes, the more this kind of person was oppressed, the more they wanted to get rid of the shackles. If he could use it well, it would not be inferior to the merit of imparting Dao.
Therefore, he made up his mind and allowed the incarnation to stay in the mortal world, while his original body continued to search for the land of creation.
However, he did not think that this method would be carried out without any twists and turns. Not to mention other things, if the Weili, the spirits of creation, saw that he occupied more and more of the missing Dao, they would most likely come out to obstruct him.
Thinking of this, he looked at the place where the calamity power gathered, and his gaze became a little deeper. Or, it was not just the spirits of creation.
In the blink of an eye, another dozen years passed, and the world where Chen Zhaoting was became more and more stable. However, ever since he knew that the cultivators who cultivated the Dao of the Spirit of Creation were not the ones he had seen, he was also extremely uneasy. He was afraid that such people would come to him, so he pleaded with Zhang Yan to build a Realm Gate in his own world to communicate with the Yan Sect so that they could help each other.
Zhang Yan did not refuse. In reality, doing so would allow the spirits of creation to acknowledge him even more deeply.
In reality, there were still many people in this world who worshipped the Dao of the Spirit of Creation, but it was not worth bothering about. He did not need the Weili to intervene, as it was impossible to make all the spirits of creation lean towards him. Even the spirits of creation could not do it, so it was enough for him to have such a situation.
And just as he was looking for the next land of creation, he suddenly opened his eyes and saw that there was a Weili seeping out from the cracks in the void, and it was coming towards Bu Xutian.
He felt a sense of familiarity from it, and his heart moved slightly, but he did not stop it. There was some strange movement in the sky, and there was obviously a consciousness that was inviting him.
His eyes flashed slightly, as expected, it came.
But unexpectedly, before the spirits of creation could react, it was the Great Virtue in the calamity power that acted first.
He thought for a moment and sent a strand of consciousness into the Prison World's sky.
In a flash, he was inside the sky and saw the Daoist from last time standing there. The Daoist bowed and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
Zhang Yan returned the greeting and said, "Fellow Daoist, Just now, you have the intention to invite me. What is it?"
The Daoist said, "I came for Fellow Daoist, and I hope that Fellow Daoist can find the missing Dao."
Zhang Yan said indifferently, "Why? I am searching for my own Dao, what does it have to do with you all? "
The Daoist said in a deep voice, "What Fellow Daoist is doing now is getting closer to the missing Dao. If this continues, the Spirit of Creation will have to use other methods to suppress Fellow Daoist."
Zhang Yan glanced at him and said, "I am looking for the method buried by the Spirit of Creation, so if he wants to make a move on me, it will be perfect. Moreover, if I force him to make a move, wouldn't that be a good thing? "
The Daoist said, "Every action of the Spirit of Creation involves the overall situation. He is scheming against me, and I am scheming against him. Pulling one hair will affect the whole situation. Although Fellow Daoist's actions can mess up his plans, it will also cause us to lose our plans. Thus, I have come to advise Fellow Daoist to stay calm for now and wait for the overall situation. "
Zhang Yan was deep in thought. According to what the Daoist said, it was nothing more than saying that his actions had increased many variables. From this, it could be deduced that the battle was carried out according to certain rules.
These rules might not be set by both sides, and it was very likely that they had no choice but to do so.
However, since the conflict between both sides was actually irreconcilable, one side would definitely fall. Thus, it was still the same saying, victory and defeat could not be seen until the end.
He looked at the Daoist and said indifferently, "Everyone has their own plans, and I also have my own plans. We are both people who seek the Dao, so why should I bend myself to follow others? I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince me with just Fellow Daoist's words. "
The Daoist wanted him to follow the overall situation, but didn't clearly state what he was going to do. This was unable to convince him.
In other words, he clearly had the ability to control the overall situation, but the Daoist wanted him to completely follow the overall situation and didn't want him to know the inside story. How could this be possible?
Moreover, when facing a great enemy like the Spirit of Creation, it was impossible to win his trust with just one person's words, and there was no way to prove that this wasn't the Spirit of Creation's arrangement.
The Daoist was silent for a while before he said, "I understand Fellow Daoist's meaning, but this time, I am only communicating with my incarnation through some Weili. The Spirit of Creation is also watching from the side, so there are many things that are difficult to explain. Please wait for a while, Fellow Daoist. It won't take long for you to understand everything."
