Rumble!
At the instant Yi Yun condensed the Heavenly Dao Royal Seal, a loud boom suddenly boomed outside the hall.
The warriors all raised their heads to look at the sky in bewilderment.
They were surprised to discover that the sky was changing. Lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. A sunny day appeared simultaneously. Rainbows streaked across the sky, coexisting with the rain, snow, wind, and frost as they spanned tens of thousands of kilometers.
Large amounts of white air currents surged out from various parts of the land. It was the energy that came from the space buried deep underground.
And now, all this energy was surging towards them.
They gathered in the air above the main hall like a huge cyclone. The huge amount of energy even made these martial artists shudder in fear.
"What's happening?"
The various Godly Monarchs looked up as well. As powerhouses of various factions, these Godly Monarchs had long lifespans. All of them were knowledgeable, but even they could not explain what was happening in front of them.
Be it breaking through to become a Divine Lord, absorbing a Royal Seal to become a Royal Sealed Divine Lord, or even becoming a Godly Monarch, none of them had such a phenomenon.
But regardless, they were certain that this change had something to do with Yi Yun.
"What is Yi Yun doing inside!?" Ghost Ming found it difficult to sit still. With Yi Yun's strength and status, he had no right to see the Heavenly Dao fragment. But now, not only had Yi Yun seen the Heavenly Dao fragment, he was the only one who had seen it.
"Could he have absorbed the Heavenly Dao fragment?" a Fey disciple suddenly said.
However, just as his voice faded, he felt his mind palpitate when Sanguine Ax swept his gaze across him. It was as though his soul was about to shatter.
"Puah!" The Fey disciple spat out a mouthful of blood as he retreated a few steps with a pale face. His Fey core nearly shattered.
Golden Winged Celestial Peng did not intervene. The Fey disciple had no choice but to say what he wanted.
"The Heavenly Dao fragment can only be refined by the Celestials. This mere human Divine Lord wants to snatch my Dao?"
Sanguine Ax's expression was hideous. He had shouldered immense pressure for the Xuanyuan Dune operation! He had secretly concealed the news. If he obtained the Heavenly Dao fragment, his status would soar among the Celestials. No one would dare say a thing about him. However, if he messed things up and the news leaked, it would be disastrous.
The competition among the Celestials was extremely brutal!
"Yi Yun must have obtained some benefits from the Heavenly Dao Hall." "I heard that when Celestials absorb the Heavenly Dao fragment, it will cause the world to wail and all life to weep."
Everyone looked at Sanguine Ax and saw his gloomy gaze. They guessed that what Dreamlight had said might be true.
However, this phenomenon was clearly different from the absorption of the Heavenly Dao fragment.
"It's very likely that Yi Yun has already begun studying the Heavenly Dao fragment. He might even have gained something from it. Even if it was us who entered the hall, I'm afraid we might not be able to obtain it so quickly, right? "
Dreamlight's words made the expressions of Ghost Ming and company turn even uglier.
The talent that Yi Yun displayed made them feel apprehensive.
"This grand array is already beginning to weaken. The geniuses that die are just a pile of rotten meat," said Golden Winged Celestial Peng coldly.
Ever since this phenomenon appeared, the energy of the entire pocket world had been draining rapidly.
This was also reasonable. The various array formations and restrictions left behind by the Human Emperor were to protect the Heavenly Dao fragment. Now that the Heavenly Dao fragment had been taken away by Yi Yun, these array formations and restrictions had lost their core array. They would dissipate in a few days.
As for the rest of them, Yi Yun would not be able to escape even if he grew wings! Regardless of what Yi Yun obtained from the Heavenly Dao Hall, it was meaningless!
…
Inside the hall, Yi Yun had already opened his eyes.
In his eyes, it was as though the celestial bodies were changing, as though time was flowing.
Yi Yun, who had absorbed the Heavenly Dao Royal Seal, was currently immersed in an extremely mystical feeling.
It was as though he was a part of the world.
In his eyes, he could see the laws of the world. With a simple gesture, he could easily change these laws. The rivers flowed in reverse, the sea and sky swapped, and space-time reversed. All of this happened with a mere thought.
However, Yi Yun also knew that although he had just condensed a Heavenly Dao Royal Seal, he had yet to fully grasp the Heavenly Dao. Furthermore, he had yet to fully absorb the Heavenly Dao fragment.
Through this breakthrough, Yi Yun finally saw where the true peak of the Martial Dao was. The pinnacle of a warrior was to fuse with the heaven and earth. They themselves were the Heavenly Dao, sharing the same lifespan as the Multiverse.
Once he reached that stage, he could even create his own Universe. There would no longer be any restraints between the heaven and earth. He would truly be free and unfettered.
"I wonder if the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch … has reached that stage …" thought Yi Yun.
With this thought in mind, Yi Yun's body flashed as his Quintessential Essence automatically condensed into a white robe. His aura converged as he stood silently in the cosmos like a mortal.
If not for the naked eye, it would have been impossible to detect his existence. He was in perfect harmony with the heaven and earth.
"Congratulations."
Bai Yueyin looked at Yi Yun's figure with mixed emotions as she spoke leisurely.
Yi Yun looked at Bai Yueyin with a pair of deep and distant eyes. Instantly, it left Bai Yueyin in a daze.
In her trance, she felt like she was looking at the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch … Yi Yun's eyes were extremely similar to the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch's. They were a pair of eyes that could see through the essence of everything. They were not blinded by any illusion.
"Years ago, the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch might have been like you, standing here," said Bai Yueyin wistfully.
Yi Yun smiled faintly.
He knew that Bai Yueyin was struck by nostalgia, which was why she felt so wistful.
"Although you have never really met the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch, you are the one who inherited his heritage. You can be considered his disciple. However, you are ultimately different from him … "Bai Yueyin seemed to come to a realization as a look of disappointment appeared in her eyes.
Yi Yun looked at Bai Yueyin's expression and said, "Years ago, the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch sealed the Ancestor God. Now that the Ancestor God has made a comeback, and since I have inherited his mantle, I will definitely slay him."
Bai Yueyin turned agape before finally nodding gently.
"Yi Yun." The worry in Lin Xintong's eyes vanished as she looked at Yi Yun with a look of gentleness and pride.
Her husband had accomplished something that no one in history had ever accomplished. She was even happier about Yi Yun's improvement than her own.
"I've just become a Royal Sealed Divine Lord. My Heavenly Dao Royal Seal isn't stable, so I need to continue consolidating my realm. Xintong, there are still some resources here. You should cultivate here as well," said Yi Yun.
There was still a sliver of the Great Dao aura lingering in the area. When the Heavenly Dao fragment was complete, rashly cultivating here would result in one's vitality being weakened by the Great Dao aura.
But now, with only a sliver of the Great Dao aura remaining, one could safely gain insights into the Great Dao. It was very beneficial to one's cultivation.
Yi Yun knew that the array left behind by the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch could not last for more than a few days. Furthermore, his realm wasn't stable, so he was in no rush to leave. Biding his time was the best choice.
Lin Xintong thought for a moment before saying, "Yi Yun, I also plan on attempting to condense my own Divine Lord Royal Seal."
"Alright."
With Lin Xintong's talent, the Royal Seals she condensed herself were in no way inferior to the Godly Monarch Royal Seals that had been passed down.
On the one hand, Lin Xintong was happy for Yi Yun's breakthrough, but on the other hand, she felt the pressure. She could not fall too far behind Yi Yun's pace.
Bai Yueyin seemed to sense Lin Xintong's thoughts as she sighed. Back then, Empress Sheng Mei was naturally inferior to Senior Lin, but they were still able to join hands in pursuit of the pinnacle of the Martial Dao.
Upon thinking of this, Bai Yueyin could not help but reveal a look of envy. Once upon a time, she too wished to chase up to the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch's footsteps and become his lifelong Dao companion … Even if they were not Dao companions, just accompanying him was good enough …
Yi Yun extended his hand and beckoned as large numbers of refined ores and Chaos Crystals flew out. They surrounded Yi Yun and Lin Xintong like a tiny mountain.
The Chaos Crystals' energy immediately transformed into energy flows.
At the same time, there were nomological Dao charms formed from the Heavenly Dao fragment's refinement.
Be it energy or laws, they were condensed to an extreme. It was just too extravagant to cultivate here. No cultivation paradise in the Chaos Heavens could compare with this place.
Having just become a Royal Sealed Divine Lord, Yi Yun's body was like a dried-up lake. He began rapidly absorbing the surrounding energy and laws.
Even Bai Yueyin was alarmed by the speed at which his strength was increasing.
"The Heavenly Dao fragment has already opened up Yi Yun's dantian to such an extent …"
Bai Yueyin muttered to herself. Suddenly, her heart palpitated. At that moment, she felt the palace tremble!
When she probed outside the palace with her psyche, Bai Yueyin saw Sanguine Ax cleaving down on the palace's protective barrier with a gigantic ax in hand. A tremendous force surged over, causing the array to tremble violently.
As for the other warriors, they were working together with Sanguine Ax to obliterate the array's core laws.
The barrier would not last much longer.
"Perhaps it can last another four to five days …"
Bai Yueyin made a guess, but she soon realized that she had underestimated Sanguine Ax.
The Celestials were indeed the darlings of the Universe. Every time Sanguine Ax cleaved with his ax, the recoil he received was enough to reduce a Divine Lord to mincemeat. However, Sanguine Ax managed to withstand it with his powerful body. Even if his body was slightly damaged, he could use his lifeblood powers to recover.
With a powerful body, nomological affinity, immense psyche powers, and long lifespans, the talent of the Celestials left people envious.
However, two days later, the array was already on the brink of collapse. At that moment, every attack from Sanguine Ax would cause the Heavenly Dao palace to quake violently.
"All of you attack as well. Take turns attacking!"
Sanguine Ax stopped. He held a Chaos Crystal in his hand and began recovering his energy. He was not worried about Yi Yun.
He was worried that the other Godly Monarchs would snatch the Heavenly Dao fragment from him after he finished Yi Yun.
A lion needed to use all its strength to fight a rabbit. He needed to recover to his peak state.
The other Godly Monarchs held back when they attacked, but they were still Godly Monarchs' strikes. The array, which was already in a precarious situation, began to crack like an eggshell.
