Chapter 548

For Hongjun,

his breaking away from the Heavenly Dao was like cutting a piece of flesh from the Heavenly Dao; that the Heavenly Dao would be this furious was something he had long anticipated.

Therefore, it was a matter of course that the Heavenly Dao was so furious now.

Afterward, once he broke away from the Heavenly Dao, stabilized his realm, and even survived the Heavenly Dao's Lei Jie,

then he, Hongjun, would be truly successful.

Now, the first step was to see if the Heavenly Dao Edict could truly be effective.

Although Hongjun trusted that Senior very much, before the answer came out, Hongjun was still slightly apprehensive.

"Hum hum..."

Just under Hongjun's slightly apprehensive gaze, the heaven and earth before him emitted a slight trembling sound.

One could see the void constantly spreading toward all directions like ripples in a river.

Through these ripples, Hongjun seemed to see the furious Heavenly Dao.

That was the place where the core power of the Heavenly Dao resided.

Although the entire Primordial World was where the Heavenly Dao's power resided, under the power of the Heavenly Dao Edict, the entire Heavenly Dao seemed to be condensed into a whole.

It was precisely because of this that the mysterious power could sever the portion of the true spirit that belonged to Hongjun.

From Hongjun's perspective, the mysterious power possessed by the Heavenly Dao Edict must be something that could only be mastered by transcending the Heavenly Dao level.

It was a supreme treasure that could only be forged by a powerhouse at the Great Dao level.

As for whether this treasure was forged by that Senior, Hongjun did not think so.

In the Senior's grocery store, there must be many treasures collected from other living beings.

Otherwise, with the Senior's strength transcending the Great Dao level, he would certainly not even look at those ordinary treasures.

Anything he forged casually would likely be at least at the level of a Chaos Supreme Treasure.

"Boom—"

Heaven and earth suddenly emitted a violent vibrating sound, and the entire space where the ripples were was torn apart in an instant.

A cluster of light familiar to Hongjun appeared before his eyes.

That was precisely the power of the Heavenly Dao Edict, and more importantly, Hongjun sensed the majority of his true spirit from after he merged with the Dao within the Heavenly Dao Edict.

Unlike Tongtian and the other Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian from the past,

Sages like Tongtian and Laozi only entrusted a sliver of their true spirit into the Heavenly Dao.

This allowed them to merge with the Heavenly Dao and possess the ability of immortality.

But for Hongjun after merging with the Dao, it was not that he merged a sliver of his true spirit into the Heavenly Dao, but that he merged his entire true spirit into the Heavenly Dao.

Following that, through a special method, he allowed himself to possess Heavenly Dao-level strength.

This could be considered a shortcut.

Not just like Hongjun, in the Myriad Heavens and Worlds, there were also some powerhouses who, feeling that they had no hope of breaking through to the Heavenly Dao realm, might find a world, merge with its Heavenly Dao, and become a Heavenly Dao-level powerhouse.

But under such circumstances,
