Chapter 553

"What on earth is going on?" Yuanshi Tianzun muttered to himself, "What on earth did Teacher do, why would the Heavenly Dao be so furious?"

The Western Sages beside him were also full of confusion.

Regarding this, they also did not know the specific situation at all.

"Indeed, what on earth did Teacher do?" Jieyin was also bewildered.

"Teacher is breaking away from merging with the Dao, which is why he has caused the Heavenly Dao to be so furious." Tongtian's voice rang out.

"Tongtian..." Yuanshi Tianzun and the Western Sages had ugly expressions.

To a large extent, they had grudges with Tongtian.

Now hearing Tongtian's voice, it was no wonder they had such a reaction.

But soon, when they understood the meaning behind Tongtian's words, they were stunned.

Teacher breaking away from the Heavenly Dao—how could this be possible?

It would be like this, on one hand, because after Teacher merged with the Dao, he possessed Heavenly Dao-level combat power, which was the real deal.

Breaking away from the Heavenly Dao had no benefits, only disadvantages.

Not to mention, breaking away from the Heavenly Dao would cause a great impact on oneself.

On this point, it had similarities to when Tongtian, who was a Hunyuan Daluo, self-severed his true spirit and broke away from the Heavenly Dao.

At that time, after Tongtian self-severed his true spirit, his miserable state looked completely like he could fall at any moment.

So if Teacher broke away from the Heavenly Dao, was that possible?

Would he likely be killed directly by the backlash?

As Sages whose true spirits were entrusted to the Heavenly Dao, they knew even better and had more say on how great the impact of breaking away from the Heavenly Dao was.

"How is it possible, how could Teacher break away from the Heavenly Dao?" Zhunti said in disbelief.

"There is nothing impossible." Laozi's voice sounded faintly, "For Teacher, merging with the Dao in the past was only for the goal of becoming a Heavenly Dao-level powerhouse; now Teacher is just changing his own path of cultivation."

"This..." Zhunti hesitated for a moment.

"Zhunti, are you trying to say that Teacher breaking away from the Heavenly Dao does not seem to have the same impact as Senior Brother Tongtian?" Nuwa said with a smile.

Breaking away from the Heavenly Dao, the backlash was not something so easily endured.

Back then, Tongtian almost fell himself.

It could be foreseen.

For Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who was breaking away from merging with the Dao, that kind of backlash would likely be even more terrifying.

Breaking away from the Heavenly Dao was completely a dead end.

Zhunti pursed his lips.

This point was indeed his doubt.

Tongtian had faced such a terrifying backlash in the past, but their teacher did not seem to be like that.
