Chapter 145: Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind

Certainly.

The Heavenly Dao does not have this ability, simply because the Great Desolation is the most perfect world.

It has already reached the level of Creating the Dao, and all demons and monsters want to obtain this world to peer into the realm of Creating the Dao.

And the Heavenly Dao merely exploited a loophole.

The Dragon-Han Calamity.

It let the three clans atone for their sins by suppressing earth, fire, and water.

The Heavenly Dao exploited the loophole and replaced the wind.

But it cannot become the wind; it can only become the plug in the wind vent.

Using the same method, when the dragons, phoenixes, and Kirin Clan disappeared, the Heavenly Dao also plugged them up.

Now, facing the threat from Hongjun, the Heavenly Dao no longer pretends and directly pulls out the plug.

Added to its original Wind Origin, the four great origins erupted in an instant.

The storm that was stirred up directly plunged the entire Great Desolation into a desperate situation.

In an instant.

Nearly eighty percent of living beings were killed or injured.

That infinite karma descended, and even Hongjun could not withstand it.

A mouthful of old blood sprayed out, and his spirit instantly withered and became listless.

Although this was caused by the Heavenly Dao, through these events, it had accumulated countless merit.

Now, using merit as the price, it instantly severely wounded Hongjun.

This is one of its trump cards, and also a means the Heavenly Dao has always been unwilling to use.

But Hongjun was too overbearing, forcing it to take action.

Otherwise, with Hongjun's current means, it could be said that there were no methods in the entire Great Desolation to restrain him.

It would have been suppressed by him in an instant, and Tongtian, the Lord of Humanity, would not have fared any better.

The Great Desolation Heavenly Dao is its own; even if it is currently at a disadvantage, it is the original Heavenly Dao of the Great Desolation.

As long as the Great Desolation does not perish, it will not die.

It has plenty of time to take down Humanity and the Earthly Dao; after all, although they have integrated with humanity, their wills still need countless eons to grow.

But if Hongjun were to take them down, especially since Hongjun possesses the great killing weapon, the World-Destroying Mill.

If it had not utilized Taiqing's divine ability of One Qi Transforms into Three Purities, it would have also been ground into powder by Hongjun.

Therefore, facing this situation, especially with Hongjun harboring murderous intent, the Heavenly Dao did not hesitate in the slightest.

It directly detonated the four great origin powers of the Great Desolation, and what Tongtian does not know is that he was spared because of this.

And at this moment, Hongjun is looking at the ravaged Great Desolation with a face full of resentment.

He originally thought he had the Heavenly Dao in the palm of his hand, but he did not expect that when he turned his head, the opponent had actually backstabbed him at a critical moment.

If not for the protection of the World-Destroying Mill, he would have already died and his Dao would have dissipated.

This is the karma of eighty percent of the living beings in the entire Great Desolation; even a Dao Realm expert might not be able to bear it.

Furthermore.

His own realm has not yet reached the Dao Realm.

Helpless, Hongjun had to release the Heavenly Dao Scepter, and at the same time, he extinguished his temporary plan to deal with Humanity.

Simply because the Great Desolation is in chaos, if he were to still hold the Heavenly Dao Scepter.

The result would be that the karma would become heavier and heavier.

"Heavenly Dao, when I recover, it will be the time I completely absorb you."

Watching the meat on his plate fly away, Hongjun was furious.

Unfortunately, now that the karma has descended, even with the World-Destroying Mill, he must temporarily avoid the brunt of it.

"This is what you forced me to do!!"

The Heavenly Dao Scepter manifested into the appearance of a young man, and at this moment, his face was also extremely gloomy.

If not for being forced into a corner, who would do such a stupid thing as killing eight hundred enemies while suffering three thousand losses?

But since it has been done, the Heavenly Dao also has its own plans.

After all, its will has already separated from the Heavenly Dao; now it can be called Wind.

Wind, one of the four great origins.

It is precisely because of this that it has such confidence.

As for the Heavenly Dao.

The painstaking efforts of many years and all its merit have been used in this high-stakes gamble. As the Heavenly Dao, it does not know how much merit it has harvested over these years.

But after this battle, it is completely left with nothing.

However, since it dared to do this, it also left behind many contingency plans.

Zhaoge City, Lingkong Jianqi Tang.

The Great Desolation evaporated, and in just an instant, countless were killed or injured.

As the Lord of Humanity, the impact was the most profound.

It did not even have time to react before eighty percent of the living beings in the entire Great Desolation had died.

The consequence of this is that Humanity, which had only recently recovered, is even more dispirited.

As the Lord of Humanity, the impact on Tongtian was also incomparably huge.

If not for the Earth-Splitting Chisel, Tongtian would have also been severely wounded by that blow just now.

Although this was not caused by him, as the Lord of Humanity, he is the representative of all living beings in the Great Desolation.

When the living beings met with an accident, he did not feel well either.

"What on earth has happened? Eighty percent of the living beings in the Great Desolation have evaporated in the blink of an eye!!"

Tongtian stood atop the thatched cottage, his eyes erupting with boundless sword Qi.

It seemed as if he wanted to see this world clearly and distinctly.

Unfortunately, no matter how he utilized his own Small Dao cultivation, the heavenly secrets remained a blur.

When he came back to his senses, Zhaoge City, which had been thriving, had now turned into a ruin.

Di Xin, as the last Human King, had even pioneered the Martial Dao.

Yet under this Great Calamity, he had likewise vanished without a trace.

Not to mention other living beings, less than one in ten of the entire Human Race remained.

It was even more unbearable to witness than during the Witch-Demon Calamity.

The remaining members of the Human Race were almost nothing but scattered remnants.

"Those with higher realms died even faster, while the common mortals survived instead."

"Who can tell me what exactly has happened to this Great Desolation???"

As the Lord of Humanity, Tongtian could only roar silently at this moment.

Although Humanity had not disappeared, at this time, it was not much different from having vanished.

Having been knocked back down below the Great Dao realm, Tongtian was fortunate to have attained the Small Dao Realm during the battle before Pangu Hall.

If not for that, with his current realm, he would have already died beyond all hope if he did not have the Earth-Splitting Chisel.

Hell.

Among living beings, ghosts and monsters are also included.

Although their natural lifespans had ended, they were still alive.

Therefore, within Humanity, they also belonged to a type of living being.

Yet at this moment, the entire Hell was simply empty.

Fortunately, Dizang Wang had already died; otherwise, the grand vow he belonged to would have come true.

"The origin of the world has actually flowed backward and erupted into chaos; in just this single instant, such terrifying Slaughter Dao has occurred."

Luo Hou, the Ancestor of Demon Dao, was also wearing a look of shock at this moment.

He was now the Lord of the Earthly Dao and held the office of Hell.

However, the disaster did not have much of an impact on him.

Even if Hell were completely empty, it was a matter of no consequence to him.

This was only because he had not entrusted his Primordial Spirit to the Earthly Dao, but rather within the Thirty-Six Grade Destruction Black Lotus.

Although Luo Hou was shocked at this moment, he was also frantically calculating.

Even though he was somewhat stronger than Tongtian, in the face of such turmoil in the origin of the Great Desolation, he could only struggle to survive.

Luo Hou did not even pay attention to the life or death of the six Earthly Dao Saints under his command.

Fortunately, a Saint is a Saint; although the Earthly Dao was damaged, they still stubbornly survived.

"Dao Lord, what exactly has happened to the Great Desolation? Why have I seen endless death?"

"It is too terrifying; this kind of death is absolute death, one that cannot even enter our Hell Reincarnation."
