Chapter 925 Hongjun's True Scheme!
Before my eyes, the awe-inspiring chaotic turmoil had returned to its previous state.
The chaotic universe remained deathly silent!
Hongjun's face remained calm and expressionless.
On the other hand, the Chaos Ancestor seemed to be displaying his immense power, his eyes filled with arrogance and self-satisfaction.
Only Lao Tzu, the Primordial One, fell into deep silence.
Even as saints, at this moment, an unprecedented feeling arose from the depths of their hearts, spread throughout their bodies, and lingered!
chill!
Not bad!
A deep chill permeated Lao Tzu's body.
There's no other reason than this!
Faced with the chaotic turmoil before them, an idea involuntarily arose in their minds.
That is... even his proud Saint-level strength would be powerless against such destructive power.
Even...as weak as an ant!
I don't know how much time has passed!
Lao Tzu's face, which had been ashen and pale as if struck by lightning, gradually returned to normal.
He first glanced at the endless storm in front of him, then turned to look at Hongjun Daozu beside him.
"Master..."
Laozi forcibly suppressed the tremor in his heart and spoke in a trembling voice.
"Are we... really going to do this?"
Upon hearing this, neither Hongjun nor Chaos Ancestor responded.
Lao Tzu then continued:
"Once such a storm descends upon the primordial world, sweeping across heaven and earth... the consequences..."
"All living things in heaven and earth will surely turn to ashes, and the life force of billions of yuan will be completely extinguished!"
He paused here, and what he said next was what he really wanted to say.
"Even... even the authority of Heaven itself will likely be severely affected!"
That's right!
This is what he's really worried about!
Has the world and all living beings suffered a calamity? Has life been extinguished?!
In Lao Tzu's eyes, this was naturally not worth mentioning.
After all, as the saying goes, everyone below a sage is but an ant!
What do the lives and deaths of ants have to do with him?
Even if many die, they can be reborn. The primordial world has no shortage of living beings.
But the authority of Heaven is different!
That is the foundation of these Heavenly Saints!
Once the authority of the Heavenly Dao is damaged and the origin of the primordial world is disturbed, the strength of these saints who depend on the Heavenly Dao for life will inevitably be greatly weakened!
This is the real issue that will shake their very foundations!
Although Yuanshi Tianzun did not speak, his solemn and dignified expression showed that he shared the same thoughts as Laozi.
To deal with the Jie Sect, to deal with Houtu and Nuwa, must we resort to such forbidden methods that would damage our own foundation?
Is this price too high?
However, Hongjun did not answer immediately.
He remained suspended there quietly, as if he had not heard Lao Tzu's question.
On the contrary, the Chaos Ancestor, whose body was surrounded by chaotic energy, turned his head with interest, his eyes, filled with only destruction and chaos, sweeping over Laozi and Yuanshi.
Then, he looked at Hongjun, grinned, and let out a dry laugh that was hard to decipher.
"how?"
"Your two apprentices seem to be afraid."
"Hongjun, could it be that even you yourself are regretting it?"
His words were filled with undisguised mockery and a hint of subtle wariness.
This chaotic storm was a supreme technique he had painstakingly developed, expending countless efforts and his very essence, and he would not allow any mishaps to occur.
at last.
After the Chaos Ancestor finished speaking, Hongjun spoke.
He slowly turned around, his emotionless and detached eyes calmly gazing at Laozi and Yuanshi.
There was neither praise nor criticism.
There is only an unchanging indifference.
"The authority of Heaven can indeed be damaged."
He calmly stated a fact.
Upon hearing this, Laozi and Yuanshi felt their hearts sink once again.
Even the Dao Ancestor himself admitted it!
It seems that the damage this chaotic storm has caused to the Heavenly Dao is probably more serious than they imagined!
But... why is that?
To inflict a thousand casualties on the enemy while losing eight hundred of one's own?
No, this would likely result in a thousand casualties for the enemy, but also a thousand casualties for ourselves!
Such a crazy act is completely inconsistent with the image of the Dao Ancestor in their minds, who plans carefully and controls everything forever!
Just when the two were completely baffled and even considered giving up...
Hongjun's next words, however, caused their thoughts to freeze instantly.
"If the authority of Heaven is damaged..."
Hongjun's tone was completely flat, as if he were talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"Then, the nascent human way and the weak underground way will inevitably be weakened by ten times or even a hundred times!"
"At that time, all three paths will decline."
"But my lineage of Heavenly Dao has the deepest foundation and unparalleled heritage in the primordial world."
"In terms of the speed of recovery, it is naturally far superior to them."
boom!!!
These words were like a thunderclap of chaos, exploding in the minds of Laozi and Yuanshi!
The two of them froze on the spot!
All the doubts, confusion, and fears from before vanished at this moment!
Instead, there was a deeper, more chilling feeling and... a sudden realization!
That's it!
So this was the Dao Ancestor's true plan!
They understood!
I understand completely now!
Hongjun's goal was not simply to destroy the Jie Sect and suppress Houtu and Nuwa!
From the very beginning, this scheme was designed to result in mutual destruction.
Hongjun intends to use this ultimate destructive power to forcibly cleanse and reset the already somewhat out-of-control primordial world!
The Way of Heaven, the Way of Earth, and the Way of Humanity—all three suffered severe blows and plummeted to the bottom.
Then, relying on the unparalleled profound foundation of the Heavenly Dao, it was the first to recover!
With this shift in balance, the ways of the earth and the ways of humanity will no longer have any chance to contend with the ways of heaven!
At that time, the entire prehistoric world will return to an era where the Heavenly Dao reigns supreme!
Do not!
It was even more thorough than that era!
Because the land and humanity will be completely destroyed in this great calamity, with no possibility of ever rising again!
At that time, when the tunnels and human society are weakened, it is not impossible to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
So cruel!
What a brilliant move to undermine the enemy's defenses!
What a perfect saying: "No destruction, no construction; destruction precedes construction!"
It must be said that Hongjun's true scheme was incredibly profound!
At the same time... they are also incredibly ruthless!
After all, at the cost of a temporary weakening of the authority of Heaven?!
This is... even if it were me, Lao Tzu, I would never have imagined this!
At this moment, Laozi and Yuanshi truly realized just how vast the gap was between them and Hongjun.
They were still calculating the gains and losses of a single city or battle, and whether their own cultivation would be damaged.
Hongjun, however, had already set his sights on the overall situation, using the rise and fall of the entire prehistoric world as a pawn in his game!
For the sake of ultimate victory, he was willing to sacrifice a portion of the Heavenly Dao's authority without hesitation, even at the cost of causing the entire prehistoric world to regress countless eons!
Such boldness, such scheming, such ruthlessness!
It sent a chill down their spines, even though they were both saints!
