Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Du Shaofu was hesitating.
The temptation of merging with the Heavenly Way and obtaining supreme power was too great. It was hard to extricate oneself from it.
Even Du Shaofu, who had always had an incomparably firm mentality, could not resist such a huge temptation at this time. Thus, endless hesitation arose in his heart.
"Phew …"
High up in the sky, Du Shaofu took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. He slowly suppressed the emotions in his heart and began to calm down.
Regardless of whether it was for the sake of his loved ones or for the sake of his own cultivation, he could not fuse with the Heavenly Dao.
If that was the case, he would lose the seven emotions and six desires that he should have. It would be no different from dying.
If one couldn't have selfish desires, if one couldn't pursue everything one wanted, what was the point of having supreme power?
At this moment, Du Shaofu's heart could not help but become clear. He instantly made a choice.
Therefore, his perseverance and persistence became even more resolute. Even in the face of the endless temptation of power, he no longer felt greedy.
He understood his own heart very well and knew what was the right choice for him to make.
"Although I can't merge with the Heavenly Way, I can still use this opportunity to take a good look at the most profound laws and principles of the world. This will be of great benefit to my strength! "
Du Shaofu thought to himself as he let out a long sigh.
Although he had decided to give up on merging with the Heavenly Way, with the help of the complete Lightning Law, he could still see through the thousands of profound patterns contained in the Heavenly Way.
These profound patterns of the Great Way were the tracks that living beings needed to explore in their cultivation.
If he could use this to comprehend it, it would bring unimaginable benefits to his cultivation level.
This time, Du Shaofu did not hesitate too much. He focused and connected his mind with the Thunder Martial Vein. Then, he sensed the laws and order of the world.
In his mind, the law imprint was glowing. Originally, only a part of the pattern was relatively complete.
However, at this moment, the entire pattern was emitting a bright light, as if it was resonating with the peculiar rhythm between heaven and earth.
In such a scene, Du Shaofu closed his eyes and fell into an indescribable state.
Every cell in his body was immersed in the veins evolved by the Heavenly Dao, constantly comprehending the profoundness within.
However, Du Shaofu was also very clear about one thing. He could now use the Thunder Martial Vein to see many Heavenly Dao marks clearly, but he was still unable to truly grasp these mysterious trajectories.
If he wanted to truly turn it into his own power, he could only take the path of fusing with the Heavenly Dao.
This situation was similar to when he was in the Tomb of the Heavenly Dao all those years ago. When he traveled down the river of time, only a mark was left behind.
If he wanted to completely control these laws and principles, he would have to rely on years of cultivation and comprehension to completely fill the law imprint.
It was like when he had fused with the 36 Spiritual Thunders, Huolei Laozu, and Lei Tianhuang's power, he had obtained the complete Law of Thunder and Lightning. He had perfected it step by step, so that a part of the pattern on the law imprint was truly coherent and complete.
But then again, if it were not for Huolei Laozu and Lei Tianhuang, if they had not found the remaining 28 Spiritual Thunders, if they had not sacrificed their lives and wiped out their spiritual intelligence to help Du Shaofu perfect the Law of Thunder and Lightning, it would have taken many years for Du Shaofu to finally surpass the Sky Sage Realm by relying on his own cultivation and comprehension.
However, because of the existence of the law imprint, it was equivalent to laying a complete foundation for Du Shaofu. Once he obtained the corresponding power or comprehension, he could easily complete it and reach the corresponding realm.
"The laws and principles of heaven and earth, the rules of the Great Dao, the order of the world, these things are only a part of this world. Although they represent supreme power, they are still limited to this part of the world. "
Some different emotions rose in Du Shaofu's mind as he constantly pondered about the mysterious principles of heaven and earth.
All of a sudden, a spiritual light flashed in his spiritual platform, and a strange idea emerged.
At this moment, Du Shaofu suddenly recalled what he had seen and heard in the Tomb of the Heavenly Dao when he had returned to the upper reaches of time.
When the ancestor had attacked the Demon God, he had said some earth-shattering words. At this moment, that vast voice resounded in Du Shaofu's ears!
"I am the Heavenly Dao, and I will protect the common people! Perhaps this is the true Heavenly Dao! "
"I don't want this heartless body of the Heavenly Dao!"
"Today, I will do what the Heavenly Dao should do. Even if I turn into ashes, so what!"
At that time, Du Shaofu had been shocked by these words because he had suddenly understood the existence of the Heavenly Dao.
Later on, when he often thought about it, he still felt boundless emotions.
However, he had never thought too deeply about the contents of these words that the ancestor had said!
However, at this moment, Du Shaofu suddenly had a kind of enlightenment.
The Heavenly Dao was supreme, selfless and heartless!
To the ancestor, even if he was willing to be obliterated by the invisible rules, he could not bear to watch the Demon God slaughter the common people.
"I am the Heavenly Dao, and I will protect the common people! Perhaps this is the true Heavenly Dao! "
Clearly, when the ancestor had made the final choice, the body of the Heavenly Dao that he understood should not be so heartless!
At the very least, as the supreme existence of this world, when the common people of the world were suffering from external disasters, he should intervene and not turn a blind eye!
"Should the Heavenly Dao really be a heartless body?"
Du Shaofu's eyes were closed, but his brows couldn't help but slowly frown.
The more he thought about it, the more Du Shaofu felt that the idea of the seed was inconceivable. At the same time, it also had an extremely vast logic.
Those words came from the mouth of the ancestor who had the body of the Heavenly Dao. It was definitely not without reason.
I am the Heavenly Dao, and I will protect the common people! Perhaps, this was the true Heavenly Dao!
Shouldn't the existence of the Heavenly Dao be based on the common people?
If this world did not have the common people that filled every corner, wouldn't it be a land of death?
Could such an existence still be called the Heavenly Dao?
Since there were already thousands of laws and orders that could evolve everything in this world, then what was the point of establishing a living being that had fused with the invisible rules as the Heavenly Dao?
"Today, I will do what the Heavenly Dao should do. Even if I turn into ashes, so what!"
These words kept echoing in Du Shaofu's ears. He carefully tasted the true meaning contained within them.
What was the Heavenly Dao?
What was it that he should do?
In fact, the ancestor's words had already given him the answer.
However, it was only today that Du Shaofu truly came back to his senses.
"The Heavenly Dao should have the common people as its thoughts, and it should have a heartless body. As the Heavenly Dao of a world, if it can't protect its own people, then what's the use of having a body of the Heavenly Dao? "
Du Shaofu muttered to himself. After thinking about it carefully, an exceptionally terrifying thought surfaced in his mind.
Was it the ancestor who had fused with the laws of the world and transformed into the Heavenly Dao, or was it the laws of the world that had assimilated the ancestor and made it a part of the laws?
This thought crazily surged in Du Shaofu's mind.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened Du Shaofu became.
Perhaps, after the ancestor had achieved the body of the Heavenly Dao, he had also seen through this point. That was why he had said those words when he had suppressed the Demon God.
"I understand!"
High in the sky, Du Shaofu slowly opened his eyes. Two rays of wisdom shot out from them.
At this moment, he finally understood what kind of existence the Heavenly Dao was.
He was certain that the body of the Heavenly Dao back then was not the true Heavenly Dao. He was only a 'slave' captured by the invisible laws!
Through the ancestor's words, Du Shaofu was certain that this was the truth. There was absolutely no falsehood.
The true Heavenly Dao was definitely built on the invisible laws and not restricted by them.
"Beyond the Sky Saint realm, one must have grasped at least one true meaning of the laws. And to fuse with the Heavenly Dao like the ancestor, one must condense this complete true meaning of the laws with the laws of the world and become a part of it. In this way, one can borrow the power of the order of the Heavenly Dao to do things that ordinary people cannot do. "
Du Shaofu said softly. He had already understood this point earlier.
However, at this moment, he had a deeper understanding of the laws of the Heavenly Dao. "However, the Heavenly Dao is sublime! The Heavenly Dao is incorporeal and formless. It cannot directly interfere with tangible things. Otherwise, it will trigger the rules of the Heavenly Dao and be obliterated! "
Du Shaofu sighed. He finally understood why the ancestor had been obliterated by the invisible laws when he had suppressed the Demon God.
Yes, he had understood the 'true meaning' behind it!
The evolution of the Heavenly Dao into all things was a subtle evolution. It was the result of thousands of laws intertwining and not directly interfering with them.
This was just like Du Shaofu himself. As the Roc Emperor of the Barren Country, the most effective way to control all his people was to use his spirit to influence them and bring about the luck of the Barren Country.
When he had fought the Demon God alone and fought a bloody battle without retreating, the spirit of all living beings had reached a high level of unity and resonated with him.
This was the result of the grand scene of the entire world worshipping him and the endless Royal Qi supporting him. It was also because of this that Du Shaofu had reached the Full Circle of the Heavenly Saint realm in an instant.
On the other hand, if he had relied on his own strength and the experts of the Barren Country, or if he had used his iron fist to suppress or force them, forcefully interfering with the beliefs of all living beings and forcing them to kneel and worship him in order to obtain the Imperial Palace's Dragon Qi, the result would have been the opposite of what he wanted. It would have been the biggest joke in the world!
These two situations were the difference between 'inaction' and 'action'.
It was because of this that the ancestor of the Du family, as the Heavenly Dao, could not interfere with the affairs of the common people. Otherwise, he would trigger the invisible rules and be obliterated!
"If that's the case, then the Heavenly Dao isn't that supreme! Since the ancestor was able to merge it, then there must be a way to control it! "
Du Shaofu's eyes shone with a strange light. He could not help but feel excited at this thought and almost jumped for joy.
The concept of controlling the Heavenly Dao and merging with the Heavenly Dao were worlds apart!
Merging with the Heavenly Dao meant that one would be restricted by the Heavenly Dao and be restrained everywhere. One would become the so-called 'supreme', but in reality, one would not be able to interfere with everything in the world.
If one could control it in one's hands, it would mean that one could turn it into one's own power and use it at will!
"However, if I want to truly control it, how should I do it?"
After his excitement, Du Shaofu gradually calmed down and began to think calmly.
The complete Lightning Law that he had mastered was a part of the Heavenly Dao. If he wanted to merge with the Heavenly Dao, then he would need to merge the Lightning Law with the complete Heavenly Dao and merge them into one.
As long as Du Shaofu was willing, he could do it at any time.
However, if he wanted to truly control it, it would not be so easy.
"This is troublesome!"
Du Shaofu was in a difficult position and felt extremely helpless.
The complete Lightning Law that he had mastered could only be achieved with the help of the spiritual thunder that his ancestor had turned into when he died.
It could be said that his current strength did not have much of an advantage compared to his ancestor who had merged with the Heavenly Dao.
Therefore, it would be difficult for him to control the Heavenly Dao.
"No matter what, I have to give it a try!"
Du Shaofu narrowed his eyes and a sense of determination shot out from his heart.
Since he had thought through these problems, there was no reason for him to shrink back.
"Today, let me try to seize the Heavenly Dao and Heavenly Dao and control it!"
These words came out of Du Shaofu's mouth. He stood high in the sky and a dazzling purple-gold light completely enveloped his body.
Bolts of lightning constantly circled around him, making him look extremely domineering and majestic.
This time, he did not close his eyes. Instead, he just stared at the boundless void.
Following the fluctuation of the Lightning Martial Vein, he could see the Heavenly Dao's trajectory that was everywhere in the void, explaining thousands of mysterious and vast true meanings.
Du Shaofu reached out a hand and gently grasped in the void as if he had grabbed an invisible existence.
At the same time, his palm emitted a blinding brilliance as if he was forcefully pulling something.
It was just a simple action, but it instantly made Du Shaofu's forehead sweat the size of beans. It was extremely strenuous.
All of a sudden, his palm was directly bounced away as he was subjected to a huge repulsive force.
"It's very difficult to seize!"
Du Shaofu gritted his teeth and withdrew his hand, panting heavily.
According to his thinking, since he wanted to control the Heavenly Dao, he had to seize the Heavenly Dao's rules and place them in his body. It was the same principle as when living creatures placed external forces into their bodies during cultivation and refined them into their own strength.
However, after a preliminary attempt, Du Shaofu realized that the invisible rules could not be seized by force at all.
Although he was not injured when he was rejected, it still consumed a lot of his energy.
"Don't rush, don't rush!"
Du Shaofu silently muttered to himself, trying hard to calm his emotions.
At the same time, his mind was racing as he kept thinking about many questions. In particular, the words that his ancestor had said kept echoing in his mind.
He wanted to find bits and pieces of the true meaning from some clues and crack the secret of controlling the Heavenly Dao.
However, after tasting it countless times, he still could not comprehend any useful information from it.
Du Shaofu knew that the principles that he had comprehended should have been understood by his ancestor after he had merged with the Heavenly Dao.
It had to be said that his ancestor was indeed invincible back then and could be called a supreme being of a generation!
In terms of aptitude, Du Shaofu could only sigh.
Perhaps he finally knew how to control the Heavenly Dao, but it was too late.
"It seems that I can only rely on myself!"
Du Shaofu sighed inwardly and gently closed his eyes again.
Under his control, the huge lightning net in the sky continued to cover the entire sky of this realm, covering every nook and cranny of this realm.
Du Shaofu tried to use the Thunder Martial Vein to trigger the tracks of the Heavenly Dao's rules that were of the same origin.
However, he did not dare to merge it with the invisible rules, fearing that it would cause irreversible consequences. By then, it would be too late to regret.
As his mind calmed down, Du Shaofu's thoughts also slowly calmed down, and his mind fell into a state of emptiness.
Just like that, he stood high up in the sky, quietly experiencing and comprehending.
The Thunder Martial Vein was still triggering the invisible order of the rules, constantly changing the beginning, explaining the profound true meaning of the laws and principles.
Below, many creatures were also watching with their eyes wide open, afraid that they would miss any detail.
Time slowly passed. After more than twenty hours, Du Shaofu's body, which was standing in the air, suddenly shook.
Immediately after, his eyes opened with a "swoosh", and a brilliant light flashed out.
"I understand!"
Du Shaofu's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but grin to his ears. He was extremely excited.
"I understand! I finally understand! So that's how it is! "Hahahaha …"
He laughed loudly, and his loud voice spread between heaven and earth, causing all the creatures in the Kyushu Realm of the Three Continents to hear it clearly.
"Although my ancestor had only merged with the Heavenly Dao back then, it was definitely not a coincidence that he was able to achieve the body of the Heavenly Dao! Only by thinking about the common people, embracing the world, and being magnanimous can one reach the highest and most profound realm and obtain the strongest power in this world. "
Du Shaofu was so excited that he couldn't stop talking to himself. A series of words came out of his mouth, "The Heavenly Dao is formless, but its existence is based on the common people of the world. Otherwise, it would only be a rootless duckweed. Even if it had the supreme true meaning of the laws and principles, it would be useless! The Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao, there is the Heavenly Dao before the Dao! And if you want to control the Heavenly Dao, you have to first transform into the heavens. You have to be magnanimous and encompass all things. Only then can you seize the Heavenly Dao! "
