The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 471 Repairing the Path to Enlightenment?

After a moment's thought, Li Daoming ultimately decided not to let the Faith Body and the Limitless Emperor Sword make a move, intending to let them go for the time being.

In the past, he would have taken action to obtain their inheritance, but now he doesn't care about the gains after killing them.

Moreover, compared to them, the Emperor, who is hiding in the shadows, poses a greater threat, so he still wants to try to lure the Emperor out.

Furthermore, when the path to immortality opens again in over 20,000 years, they will definitely emerge to attack it. If they fail, they will try to enter the strange world, and they will probably fail again.

If we fail, and if we hadn't launched the Dark Turmoil before, or hadn't launched it back then, we could have given them a chance. But if we had launched the Dark Turmoil before, or if we wanted to launch it, then it wouldn't be too late to wipe them out.

Then, Li Daoming turned his gaze to the Starry Sky Ancient Road, his brows furrowing slightly.

When creating this ancient starry road, his main focus was on gathering vital energy, reviving the myriad paths of heaven and earth, and eliminating the suppression of the Great Dao; defense and offense were secondary.

At that time, even the supreme beings capable of destroying the ancient star road dared not show themselves, and the ancient star road he created covered too vast an area. It would have been too costly to set up an array that could withstand the supreme beings' attacks.

He was unwilling to spend too much money to build the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

Over time, the great array had already suffered some damage. Now, facing the attack of the Supreme Being, the Ancient Starry Sky Road was in great trouble: many extreme array patterns were obliterated, and some areas were broken.

Although it still has the function of gathering the essence of heaven and earth, reviving all the ways of heaven and earth, and eliminating the suppression of the Great Dao, its effect has been greatly reduced.

Fortunately, the suppression of the Great Dao is about to dissipate; otherwise, the beings who have been cultivating on the ancient starry road would probably have experienced the hardships of the Dao-difficult era.

Without much hesitation, Li Daoming had his Faith Body repair the ancient starry road and the great formation.

Actually, for him now, this ancient starry road doesn't mean much anymore.

Originally, he created this ancient star road to cultivate enough saints during the Dao Difficulty Era, so that they could go to the Inner Chaos Heavens to operate the great array, transforming the chaotic energy into chaotic primordial energy, imperial blood, etc., thereby obtaining enough resources.

However, after his Yin-Yang Dao Body led many powerful figures from the Boundless Holy Court to the strange world, he began to look down on the resources produced by the human realm.

After establishing itself in the strange world, the Wuji Holy Court also created various worlds within the inner chaos of the strange world and set up formations to transform the chaotic energy.

Because the powerful beings in the strange world have longer lifespans and are more numerous, Li Daoming has opened up enough heavenly worlds and refined many Heavenly Emperor Hearts with the Emperor Blood he had accumulated before. This makes the resources that the strange world can produce dozens of times more than those in the human world.

Don't think it's impossible. There are too many powerful people in this strange world. There are two or three hundred Heavenly Venerables whose realm is comparable to that of ancient emperors, and several thousand Supremes whose realm is comparable to that of Quasi-Emperors. The number of powerful people above the Saint level is even greater, definitely exceeding several hundred thousand.

Moreover, this was during a conflict between many factions, resulting in numerous deaths; otherwise, the number would certainly have been much higher.

And what about the human realm? The era of hardship can never compare to the golden age. There are only tens of thousands of saints and a couple hundred quasi-emperors, which is simply incomparable.

Therefore, once the strange world was created, he really didn't think much of the resources produced by the human world.

However, the Ancient Starry Road is of little significance to him, but it is of great significance to the beings of the human realm and the cultivators of the Boundless Holy Court, as it allows them to remain unaffected by the era of hardship.

Moreover, even a small mosquito is still meat. Although the human world produces fewer resources, it is not connected to the strange world. Without these resources, the Boundless Holy Court in the human world would not be able to develop.

It must be said that anything is easy to destroy but difficult to repair.

The three supreme beings erased many of the ultimate array patterns and severed the ancient star path in just a breath or two. The Faith Body, on the other hand, spent decades repairing the ancient star path and the array.

After repairing the ancient starry road and formations, the Faith Body did not linger, returning to the Boundless Holy Court to continue its slumber.

Although He is a figure of faith, it does not mean that He can live forever.

In a sense, He is a semi-independent life form that is formed from a trace of Li Daoming's primordial spirit without any will after absorbing a large amount of faith power.

Since it is a life form, it will naturally be affected by this world. Its lifespan is limited, and it is impossible to live forever.

However, because of his close connection with Li Daoming, he embodies Li Daoming's Dao and Dharma.

Li Daoming could use his own Daoist magic to seal him, putting him into a state similar to a supreme being sealing himself in a forbidden zone, thus slowing down the consumption of his lifespan.

Moreover, because he sealed himself away not when his lifespan was nearing its end, but at the peak of his life, there would be no problem even if he sealed himself away for tens of millions of years.

"Buzz!" Ten years later, a special aura that permeated the world completely dissipated, and the world underwent a great change.

The essence of heaven and earth was rising rapidly, and all the myriad paths of heaven and earth suddenly became much more active. The suppression of the Great Dao was completely dissipated, and many cultivators seemed to have divine assistance in their enlightenment and cultivation, which suddenly became much faster...

Many powerful beings in the universe seemed to sense this and began fierce battles, vying for the throne of this era.

Although everyone knows from that battle decades ago that the Heavenly Emperor has departed, he left behind an incomparably powerful avatar of faith, capable of annihilating three supreme beings in the blink of an eye, and even peak ancient emperors could not defeat him.

Even if he attains the Dao and becomes an emperor in this life, he will not be able to dominate the world and be the only supreme ruler like the ancient emperors of the past. He will have to be subordinate to the Wuji Holy Court.

But all those with hope are fighting with everything they have.

If one can attain the Dao and become an Emperor, even if one ends up like the Soul Emperor tens of thousands of years ago, relegated to a subordinate position under the Boundless Holy Court, one can still stand above all races in the universe.

Moreover, only by attaining enlightenment and becoming an emperor can one hope to advance further, to catch a glimpse of the Heavenly Emperor's back, and to potentially travel through the interdimensional passage opened by the Heavenly Emperor to that strange world and gain a long lifespan.

The universe is in turmoil. Many people believe that perhaps in a hundred or two hundred years, the one who will prove the Way in this lifetime will be born. Countless people are debating who this one will be.
Soon, more than a hundred years have passed!

On the edge of the universe, a terrifying aura spread to the heavens, the earth, the four seas, and the eight wastelands.

Here, countless bolts of lightning raged fiercely, and divine forces flickered, transforming into a land of annihilation. Starfields on the edge of the universe collapsed, a scene of boundless terror.

"This aura indicates that someone is about to attain enlightenment! It seems that the one who will attain enlightenment in this lifetime is about to appear."

"No, I'm not reconciled! I've already cultivated to the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor. Give me another one or two hundred years, and I'm sure I can prove myself as an Emperor!"

"Damn it, I'm still a bit short. I can't worry about that now, let's push through!"

……

Faced with the sudden tribulation of enlightenment, countless powerful beings in the universe reacted differently.
