Chapter 593: What is the Dao

"From which Immortal Domain did that Great Dao sound come?"

"The Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain! It is the Emperor Road of the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain. An anomaly who has created his own Dao has appeared!"

"Who on earth is it? To be so monstrously talented, able to carve out his own path in this Great Era where a hundred boats compete?"

"Such a figure, if placed in any previous era, would absolutely possess the potential to become an Immortal!"

"It is a pity. That anomaly is feared by the Heavenly Dao, which has blocked his path to proving the Dao. His future path will be severed."

"It seems the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain has indeed produced a ruthless character. However, it is also tragic; a heaven-defying prodigy who dazzled the universe will now fade into the crowd."

Throughout the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, many ancient antiques and living fossils were awakened.

Upon hearing that Great Dao sound, expressions of shock appeared on their faces.

Many ancient existences turned their gazes in unison toward the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain.

How long had it been since the will of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain had manifested?

The last time was during the era when the Foreign Domain invaded and the Immortal Court collapsed.

To be able to disturb the will of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, it must be an earth-shattering event.

But the problem was, what was disturbing the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain now...

... was not a Foreign Domain invasion, not a disturbance in the Forbidden Zones, nor the churning of the Boundary Sea.

It was merely because of one person.

From this, it can be seen that in the eyes of the Immortal Domain's will...

... the threat level of that person was equivalent to major events like a Foreign Domain invasion!

Just as the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain was in an uproar...

... over in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain...

... above the Jun Clan's ancestral shrine...

... the Eighth Ancestor Jun Tianming, along with the Eighteenth Ancestor, the Sixteenth Ancestor, and others, all had grim expressions, their eyes filled with a mix of coldness and fury.

"Damn the heavens! Do they really think my Jun Clan doesn't dare to take action?" the Sixteenth Ancestor cursed, fury erupting in his eyes.

He had the appearance of a ten-year-old child, but the power within his body surged as if it could not be contained.

For the Sixteenth Ancestor to lose his composure like this, it was clear he was truly enraged.

"What is the use of saying this now? It is unnecessary," the Eighteenth Ancestor shook his head slightly.

"Back then, even when our Jun Clan split, we were only a step away from success. In the end, wasn't it that damn Immortal Domain will..." the Sixteenth Ancestor could not help but curse again.

In the distant past, the Jun Clan wanted to replace the Supreme Immortal Court and become the master of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.

In the end, they failed.

The world did not know the reason why.

Only the Jun Clan themselves knew.

Besides the internal split of the family and the obstruction of the Supreme Immortal Court, there was also the influence of the Immortal Domain's will.

Otherwise, relying solely on a collapsing Supreme Immortal Court would not have been enough to curb the Jun Clan's ambition.

"Forget it, let's not talk about the past. In this Great Era, are we afraid that our Jun Clan won't have another chance?"

"What we need to focus on right now is Xiaoyao proving his Dao," Jun Tianming said.

"Indeed. Even though Xiaoyao's talent is monstrous, with this restriction, it is somewhat of an obstacle for him," the Eighteenth Ancestor said.

He had watched Jun Xiaoyao grow up and already felt a grandfather-grandson bond with him.

"Actually, it doesn't matter. If he cannot prove his Dao in the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, then he can go to the Foreign Domain, the Boundary Sea, or even the vast lands beyond the domains. Are we afraid he won't be able to prove his Dao?" Jun Tianming said with overbearing authority.

If it were an ordinary prodigy, being restricted like this would mean almost zero hope of proving the Dao.

But for the Jun Clan, they had the confidence and the ability to let Jun Xiaoyao prove his Dao in even further places.

"Haha, exactly! Once Xiaoyao proves his Dao and becomes an Emperor, the Immortal Domain's will won't be able to do anything to him. If Xiaoyao can become an Immortal, he can overturn these heavens and reshape the order of the world!" the Sixteenth Ancestor laughed.

"I, however, believe that with Xiaoyao's stubborn personality, he definitely won't choose to escape, but will choose to continue proving his Dao within the Immortal Domain."

"Then we shall see what he chooses. Let him be," Jun Tianming said.

"I believe Xiaoyao will definitely succeed. When that time comes, he will prove his Dao, become an Immortal, and defy these damn heavens!" the Sixteenth Ancestor laughed.

Boom!

At this moment, above the Jun Clan, lightning flashed and thunder roared.

It was as if their conversation had offended some kind of taboo.

"Heh... just wait..." Jun Tianming and the others merely looked up and sneered in silence.

The Jun Clan had been dormant for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity.

And Jun Xiaoyao was the key!

On the Desolate Heaven Battlefield, at the Heavenly Dao Arena...

... all the prodigies were stunned, never expecting the situation to take such a 360-degree turn.

A moment ago, the Heavenly Dao Wang Guan was being bestowed; if worn, one was destined to become an Emperor.

But the next moment, they were cast down from heaven to hell—Jun Xiaoyao was actually unable to prove his Dao.

"Did you hear? The Heavenly Dao voice said that the Jun Clan's Son of God has walked a path of his own."

"Hiss... no wonder the Jun Clan's Son of God is so monstrous. So he had already taken that step."

"Truly a monster. But this also means that the Jun Clan's Son of God can never again prove his Dao and break through."

"Does that mean the Jun Clan's Son of God can only cultivate to the Quasi-Emperor realm at most and can never truly become a Proved Dao Emperor?"

"Although a Quasi-Emperor is already very strong, in this Great Era, it is still not enough."

Many prodigies whispered and gossiped.

"How could this be?" Jiang Shengyi and the others' expressions changed; they had not expected this outcome either.

Conversely, Ji Qingyi, who was watching from the side, had an 'as expected' look on her face.

"Previously, when Jun Xiaoyao was in the Lower Realm, he walked a path of his own. This was destined to be a path that defies the heavens; the Heavens would never allow such a path to exist."

"Now that the Heavenly voice has spoken and cast down a shackle, Jun Xiaoyao can no longer break through, and thus he no longer poses a threat to the successor of the Human Immortal Sect," Ji Qingyi murmured in her heart.

But strangely, she felt no joy, and a look of deep thought appeared in her eyes.

The Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Maiden also murmured in her heart: "As expected, one who is void of fate is an existence even the Heavenly Dao fears. It will never allow him to prove his Dao."

At this moment, everyone present felt no mockery or ridicule toward Jun Xiaoyao.

There was only lament and pity.

He was clearly a prodigy who shook the past and present, worthy of being recorded in history.

Yet now, his path forward was cruelly restricted.

What was most fatal was that the Immortal Domain's will only spoke after the Heavenly Dao Wang Guan had condensed.

This was simply killing the heart.

If it were any other prodigy, they would absolutely be unable to withstand such a disparity, and their Dao heart would be shaken.

Even Supreme Du Tuo was sighing, saying it was truly a pity.

If the already monstrous Jun Xiaoyao had merged with the Heavenly Dao Wang Guan, his talent and strength would absolutely have been the most monstrous existence in history, bar none!

Everyone looked at Jun Xiaoyao.

To their surprise, Jun Xiaoyao's expression was very calm.

So calm that there wasn't even a ripple.

"Could the Jun Clan's Son of God be calm on the outside but collapsing on the inside?" some people wondered.

"Heh..."

Finally, Jun Xiaoyao laughed.

This laugh was a cold sneer, a mockery of the Heavens.

"My Jun Clan's ancestor, Emperor Qitian, once said: 'Heavenly Dao coronation is but a burden; I prove my Dao with my body, and through ten thousand tribulations, I become an Immortal.'"

"If I, Jun Xiaoyao, want to become an Immortal, when have I ever needed the approval of the Heavenly Dao?"

Jun Xiaoyao was a transmigrator with peerless talent and a System.

Since his birth, he had swept away everything and never tasted defeat.

His monstrous posture covered the ages.

Before him, what is the Heavenly Dao? Does it even have the qualifications to block his path?

Hearing these words, the expressions of all the prodigies present were extremely colorful.

Among the younger generation, Jun Xiaoyao was likely the only one who dared to confront the Heavens.

"Heaven, do you want to prove that I cannot win against you? Then why not set up a gamble?"

Jun Xiaoyao looked up at the starry sky, his tone indifferent, yet it erupted with an earth-shattering sound.

"When I, this Son of God, prove my Dao and become an Immortal, I will definitely make the Heavenly Dao perish and reshape the order of the world!"

As the words fell, the entire universe trembled!
