Chapter 334 Proving the Dao of Primordial Chaos, Baptism of the Great Dao
Upon witnessing this scene, Niu Ben couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"It seems so."
"In the hidden exchange just now, it was the Dao Ancestor who gained the upper hand!"
The other beings watching the ceremony were of low cultivation level and could not discern anything amiss.
But Niu Ben knew very well that in that brief moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had already clashed with the Heavenly Dao.
Moreover, it is highly likely that in the end, the will of Heaven will prevail.
Otherwise, the Eye of Heaven would never have retreated so easily.
At this moment, the Three Pure Ones, upon seeing this, all guessed as Niu Ben had.
"Is the teacher's strength really that terrifying?"
"Even the Heavenly Dao... can be defeated?"
The Supreme Sage exclaimed in surprise, his mind reeling for a long time.
"I never imagined that the teacher's power was so immense. He must have just secretly clashed with the Heavenly Dao, and... he even won!"
Yuanshi Tianzun thought to himself, feeling an increasing admiration for his teacher Hongjun from the bottom of his heart.
"Very good."
"The Eye of Heaven has retreated."
"So, does that mean Niu Ben... successfully survived the Great Calamity of Chaos?"
Upon thinking of this, Tongtian couldn't help but burst into laughter, naturally happy for Niu Ben.
Just as many sages were sighing with emotion.
Hongjun the Ancestor withdrew his gaze and then turned to look at Niu Ben.
Niu Ben was still in his original Chaos Green Ox form.
Its true form was covered in wounds and its breath was weak, but a determined light shone in its huge bull eyes.
Upon seeing Hongjun's gaze, Niu Ben's figure flashed, transforming into human form, and he quickly bowed to Hongjun.
"Thank you so much, Master, for saving us!"
Niu Ben's bow was genuine.
He had previously survived eight tribulations of Primordial Lightning.
Starting from the seventh Primordial Lightning Tribulation, the power of the lightning tribulation already contained the blessing of the will of Heaven.
It used its own Chaos Green Ox form to tear through and block the seventh and eighth tribulation lightning.
He had originally planned to use the innate treasure, the Chaos Five Elements Flag, to block the final lightning tribulation.
Unexpectedly, Dao Ancestor Hongjun descended and stopped that tribulation lightning.
Although Niu Ben was confident that by unleashing the Chaos Five Elements Flag, he would be able to withstand the power of that lightning tribulation.
However, the fact that Dao Zu intervened for him and even confronted the Heavenly Dao head-on made Niu Ben quite grateful to him.
Upon hearing what Niu Ben said, Dao Ancestor Hongjun smiled faintly, and then transmitted his voice:
"Bull Bull!"
"The calamity has passed; take care of yourself."
"Once this matter is settled, come to Zixiao Palace."
After saying this, Hongjun didn't wait for Niu Ben's response. In a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
After Hongjun left, Niu Ben frowned slightly.
Although they were extremely grateful for the help from the Dao Ancestor.
What Niu Ben couldn't understand was why Hongjun would do such a thing?
"What exactly is this Taoist patriarch up to?"
"Why risk going against the will of Heaven to protect me?"
"Just because I am the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones, and his grand-disciple?"
"This reason... doesn't seem sufficient in this cruel world of the primordial era."
"Could it be because I'm about to attain the Primordial Chaos Realm?"
"But that doesn't make sense! As the representative of Heaven's Way, there's no reason for it to protect an anomaly like me."
"..."
The more Niu Ben thought about it, the more complicated his thoughts became.
As far as he knew, Dao Ancestor Hongjun was a villain.
After merging with the Heavenly Dao, he became the executor of the Heavenly Dao's ruthless will and the driving force of the Great Tribulation.
Even the ultimate villain behind the scenes, using all things as pawns to maintain the balance of heaven and earth, is indifferent and aloof.
Such an existence is now willing to defy the Heavenly Dao for its own sake.
"call!"
After a moment's thought, Niu Ben took a deep breath and muttered to himself:
"The Dao Ancestor must have had another purpose."
"A trip to Zixiao Palace will perhaps reveal the answer then."
While Niu Ben was lost in thought, the many beings watching the ceremony were still in a daze of shock.
"Daozu has left too?"
"Has Senior Brother... survived the Great Tribulation of Chaos?"
"That was quite a rollercoaster ride!"
"If you truly overcome this obstacle, wouldn't Your Majesty successfully attain the Primordial Chaos Realm?"
"..."
Just as many living beings were sighing and lamenting, a strange change suddenly occurred.
"Rumble..."
Suddenly, the wind and clouds in the void outside the underworld changed color.
Soon, at the endless heights, the barrier of chaos seemed to be slowly torn apart by a pair of invisible giant hands.
Immediately afterwards, strands of chaotic light shone down, piercing through time and space and falling into the Netherworld Abyss deep within the underworld.
This radiance is gentle and peaceful.
It completely enveloped Niu Ben!
"Boom boom..."
Niu Ben was bathed in that chaotic radiance, feeling as if he were basking in a spring breeze.
Meanwhile, the many living beings watching the ceremony were all deeply moved by what they saw.
It was clear that although the chaotic radiance was not dazzling and there was no powerful aura erupting, just a moment of contemplation made these beings feel a genuine desire to worship.
The feeling they got was that the power bestowed upon Niu Ben was even more sublime than the power of Heaven.
The Three Pure Ones were all deeply moved upon seeing this.
Other creatures might not be able to tell what was going on, but they knew very well.
At this moment, Niu Ben was receiving the infusion of the Great Dao's origin.
"That is the light of the very origin of the Great Dao!"
"Only those who have truly attained the Primordial Dao can receive the infusion of the Great Dao's origin!"
"If one continues down this path, that is true transcendence, even... rising above the Heavenly Dao!"
"..."
The Three Pure Ones were secretly amazed. Even with their saintly minds, they were still shocked to see Niu Ben being infused with the essence of the Great Dao.
It should be understood that the Great Dao is above the Primordial Heavenly Dao.
It is the ultimate rule and source that all the heavens and myriad realms, and the endless chaos, follow together!
And this fundamental principle is the manifestation of this ultimate rule!
Its level far surpasses the power of the Heavenly Dao!
Since the beginning of time, apart from the legendary chaotic era before the creation of the world, there has never been such a large-scale descent of the Great Dao's origin!
……
Thirty-three heavens away, Zixiao Palace.
The newly returned Dao Ancestor Hongjun was also taken aback when he sensed the arrival of the Great Dao Origin in the Underworld.
"Oh?"
"Is it a baptism from the origin of the Great Dao?"
"This child... has actually triggered the voluntary descent and reward of the very origin of the Great Dao?"
"Is it because he successfully defied the heavens with force, breaking some of the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, and his path gained the approval of the Great Dao?"
"Truly blessed!"
After sensing it slightly, Dao Ancestor Hongjun couldn't help but exclaim in praise.
At the same time, the will of Heaven naturally sensed the arrival of the Great Dao's origin.
In the endless void, the Eye of Heaven slowly appeared, a fleeting look of surprise and apprehension flashing across its eyes.
After all, the power of the Great Dao is superior to the power of the Heavenly Dao.
