Chapter 1234: The Catastrophe Descends! A New Great Age! The Rioting Guixu Sea Eye

"The truth of all laws?"

That figure's face revealed a distant expression, their tone carrying the weight of ages.

"Is there truly any living being in this world capable of finding the source of the Dao?"

"Of course."

Luo Hou's voice carried confidence, his tone resolute:

"Sentient beings believe the Dao is endless; that is merely their ignorance, weakness, and lack of talent, preventing them from seeing the essence of things."

"As long as you are powerful enough, even the Great Dao will crawl at your feet."

Luo Hou displayed an overwhelming dominance, his ambition revealed without doubt.

"Transcend the Great Dao?"

"Luo Hou, will you have that day?"

That figure took an extra look at Luo Hou, their gaze somewhat complex.

"Of course I will, but I require the help of a fellow Daoist."

Luo Hou did not hide it.

"You hold me in too high regard."

The figure in the mirror returned to a peaceful tone.

"I am trapped within the cage of the Great Dao and bear a mission; even if the myriad Daos collapse and the star rivers are annihilated, I cannot escape. How can I assist you?"

"I will help you break free from your shackles."

That figure was silent for a moment, then fixed their deep gaze on Luo Hou and suddenly said:

"Once I break free, I must fulfill my predetermined mission."

"This was imposed upon me by the will of the Great Dao; it cannot be changed, and no living being can stop it, not even you."

"But in doing so, it will inevitably alter the numbers of the Great Dao and twist the rules of space and time."

"Are you not afraid of Pangu's return?"

Luo Hou said with a calm tone, as if stating a fact.

"Pangu's return will not be until after the Immeasurable Kalpa."

"In the Age of Dharma Decline, all laws will collapse, heaven and earth will cease to exist, and spiritual energy will be exhausted."

"The Honghuang world may have long since vanished, and I will have already stepped into a higher realm. What is there to fear?"

"Why are you so certain?"

The figure in the mirror furrowed their brows.

"This involves certain secrets of the Great Dao; there is no need for you to ask further, fellow Daoist."

Luo Hou's tone was mysterious and cryptic.

The figure in the mirror remained somewhat hesitant.

"These are the shackles of the Great Dao, the most fundamental order of the Great Dao—complex, profound, and containing infinite power. Are you certain you can break them?"

"Rules are meant to be broken; there are no shackles in this world that cannot be opened."

Luo Hou said confidently:

"The reason you cannot break free, fellow Daoist, is simply because you are confined by the numbers of the Great Dao."

"But the numbers of the Great Dao are not unchangeable."

"All I must do is cause a massive change in the world's rules and interrupt the numbers of the Great Dao; then, you will be able to break free."

The face hidden in the shadows shifted rapidly in expression.

"You... do you know what interrupting the numbers of the Great Dao means?"

They had not expected Luo Hou to be so insane.

"Of course I know, but so what?"

Luo Hou laughed:

"You are making too much of a fuss, fellow Daoist."

"Time, to us, is of no consequence."

"Just like you sitting trapped here—what is the difference between an eternity and a single instant?"

"I am merely pushing forward everything that was originally destined to happen."

"Pangu planted the cause, and I shall write the result."

"Furthermore, even if Pangu truly returns, you need not feel guilty, fellow Daoist."

"You are merely bearing a mission; you owe him nothing."

The figure in the mirror was silent for a long time, then asked:

"How is the Honghuang world now?"

"After the Great War of Heaven and Man, the Heavenly Dao collapsed, the original Honghuang continent shattered, and countless continents drifted into the chaotic starry sky."

"Lin Xia has laid down the Vast Hunyuan Ten Directions Array atop Mount Buzhou, stabilizing billions of spaces and times."

"Now, the Earth Dao and Human Dao are rising, while the Saintly orthodoxies are in decline."

"Without the suppression of karmic debt, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans have successively revived, and the myriad clans are rising again from their decay."

Luo Hou introduced the situation of the Honghuang world.

"The trajectory of fate has indeed shifted."

"A new great age has arrived."

The figure in the ancient mirror whispered softly.

"But nothing is destined to last."

Luo Hou sneered, then a sharp light flashed in his eyes, his voice rising.

"The Honghuang world is about to change. Since Pangu opened the heavens, who knows how many catastrophes this world has already endured."

"Birth, suffering, rise, glory, decay—all sentient beings are under the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, within the cycle of the Earth Dao, and entangled by fate."

"Gods and demons stand tall, fierce beasts arise, the war of the three clans, the struggle between Dao and Demon, the Lich Kalpa, the rise of the Human Dao..."

"The destruction of the Heavenly Dao is the first change in order since time immemorial; this is even causing the Great Dao, which has been in retreat for eons, to reappear in the world."

"And this will be the second change."

"This is both a catastrophe and an unprecedented opportunity."

"As long as you join forces with me, fellow Daoist, you can become the ultimate winner in this catastrophe."

That majestic figure remained silent for a long time in the desolate realm of laws, finally saying:

"What must I do?"

Eons of time—it is too long, and too dull.

Even for immortal beings, this is true.

The thought of spending who knows how many more kalpas like this in a cage was enough to cast a shadow over their Dao heart.

In the end, they could not endure it.

Luo Hou whispered, slowly revealing his plan.

"Agreed!"

The Dragon Realm.

The world is vast, with the azure sea meeting the cloudy sky in the distance.

The seemingly calm sea is actually surging with undercurrents.

If one observes carefully, one can see sea eyes hidden within the water.

They contain intense elemental fluctuations and often spew forth the power of wind, water, thunder, and lightning, keeping the sea area in turmoil.

And in the deepest part of the central sea area, there is one sea eye where the elemental fluctuations are the most intense.

It is like a giant abyss mouth, swallowing and spitting out the four seas.

With every breath, the terrifying energy unleashed is enough to tear apart heaven and earth and destroy star rivers. ===== CHAPTER 1236 =====
