The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 863 The World's Only God
Zhu Xiong Ying was not to be outdone and engaged in a fierce battle with the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao.

In an instant, in the chaotic world, fist shadows flew and energy surged, as if it were the end of the world.

The two fought back and forth for hundreds of rounds, but neither could gain the upper hand.

"I'd like to see just how long you can hold out!" The Heavenly Dao avatar roared, its aura surging once more.

"I? You dare to call yourself I?" Zhu Xiong Ying sneered, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, he appeared behind the Heavenly Dao avatar and unleashed a punch!
"boom!"

Caught off guard, the Heavenly Dao incarnation was blasted away by a punch, crashing heavily into the barrier of the Chaos World.

"puff!"

The avatar of the Heavenly Dao spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.

“You…” He stared at Zhu Xiong Ying in disbelief, “You…you actually…”

"I told you, you're nothing but an imposter." Zhu Xiong Ying slowly walked up to the avatar of the Heavenly Dao, looking down at him. "Now, it's time to tell me your true identity."

The avatar of Heaven's Dao had an uncertain expression. Finally, he sighed and said, "So be it, so be it. I admit defeat to you."

"Oh? You're finally telling the truth?" Zhu Xiong Ying raised an eyebrow.

"I am not the Heavenly Dao, but..." The Heavenly Dao's incarnation paused, a complex look flashing in its eyes, "...an ancient ferocious beast."

"An ancient ferocious beast?" Zhu Xiong Ying looked at him with great interest. "Tell me, what kind of ferocious beast are you?"

“I am…” The incarnation of the Heavenly Dao took a deep breath, “Chaos.”

"Chaos?" Zhu Xiong Ying was slightly taken aback. "Is it the legendary chaos that gave birth to all things before the creation of the world?"

“Exactly.” Chaos nodded. “I have been sealed here for countless years, and I have always wanted to break the seal and regain my freedom.”

"So, you impersonated the Heavenly Dao, wanting to use the power of the Heavenly Dao Gate?" Zhu Xiong Ying asked.

"Indeed," Chaos readily admitted, "It's just a pity that I was ultimately outmaneuvered and lost to you."

"So, everything you said before was false?" Zhu Xiong Ying asked.

“It’s not all fake,” Chaos said. “The Heavenly Dao does exist, but it’s not what you imagine it to be.”

"Oh? What does it look like?" Zhu Xiong Ying asked.

Chaos shook his head: "I don't know either. I only know that the Heavenly Dao is formless and omnipresent, and omnipotent. It controls the operation of the entire universe, and no one can defy its will."

"Is that so?" Zhu Xiong Ying's lips curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile. "Then I'll give it a try!"

"Try? What will you use to try?" Chaos sneered, his tone full of disdain. "You think you're invincible after defeating me? How laughable! The power of the Heavenly Dao far exceeds your imagination!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled noncommittally, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked down at the chaos, saying calmly: "My Ming Dynasty's iron cavalry has swept across the world, invincible! My Embroidered Uniform Guard has eyes and ears all over the world, knowing everything! My Eastern Depot controls all the darkness in the world, making people tremble with fear! My Ming Dynasty is powerful and prosperous, with all nations paying tribute! This is my confidence!"

Upon hearing this, Chaos's expression changed slightly, a hint of apprehension flashing in its eyes. Although it had been sealed here for countless years, it had heard some things about the outside world. It was naturally aware of the rise of the Ming Dynasty. This dynasty was indeed terrifyingly powerful.

"Even if your Ming Dynasty is strong, so what?" Chaos forced himself to remain calm. "How can mortals contend with the power of the Heavenly Dao?"

Zhu Xiong Ying laughed loudly, his laughter filled with arrogance and confidence: "The Way of Heaven? I am the Way of Heaven! My will is the will of Heaven!"

After saying that, he suddenly looked up, and two golden beams shot out from his eyes, soaring straight into the sky!
Chaos's expression changed drastically, and he cried out in terror, "You...you're insane! You actually dare to challenge the Heavenly Dao!" "Challenge?" Zhu Xiong Ying's lips curled up slightly, revealing a disdainful smile. "Why should I challenge? I am the Heavenly Dao!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire chaotic world trembled violently, as if it were about to collapse!
Golden rays descended from the sky, enveloping Zhu Xiong Ying.

Chaos watched this scene in horror, its eyes filled with despair. It knew it had lost, utterly and completely!

Bathed in golden light, Zhu Xiong Ying's aura continued to rise, eventually reaching a peak!
He slowly opened his eyes, which shone with golden light, like a god!

"From this day forward, I am the Heavenly Dao of this world!" Zhu Xiong Ying's voice resounded throughout the entire chaotic world!

Chaos let out a roar of resentment, and finally turned into ashes, disappearing into the world.

Zhu Xiong Ying withdrew his gaze, turned to look at the void behind him, and said indifferently, "Come out. What kind of behavior is this, hiding like this?"

As soon as he finished speaking, an old man dressed in white, with an air of otherworldly wisdom, slowly walked out of the void.

The old man looked at Zhu Xiong Ying, his eyes filled with shock and awe: "Greetings... to the Heavenly Dao..."

"No need for formalities," Zhu Xiong Ying said calmly. "Who are you?"

"I am Hongjun Daozu," the old man replied respectfully.

"Hongjun?" Zhu Xiong Ying was slightly taken aback. He seemed to have heard this name somewhere before.

“Indeed.” Dao Ancestor Hongjun nodded. “I am the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao of this world.”

"A spokesperson for the Way of Heaven?" Zhu Xiong Ying raised an eyebrow. "So, you've been observing me all along?"

"I dare not," Hongjun Daozu hurriedly said. "I am merely acting on the orders of Heaven to protect this world."

"Protect the world?" Zhu Xiong Ying sneered. "I think you're just spying on me."

Hongjun Daozu's expression changed, and he dared not speak.

"Fine, I won't make things difficult for you." Zhu Xiong Ying waved his hand. "Since you are the spokesperson of Heaven's Way, then I will give you a task."

"Please give your instructions, Heavenly Dao," said Hongjun Daozu respectfully.

"I command you to convey my will to all living beings in this world!" Zhu Xiong Ying said in a deep voice. "From this day forward, I am the only god in this world!"

"Yes, sir!" Hongjun Daozu replied hastily.

Zhu Xiong Ying nodded in satisfaction, and then, in a flash, he disappeared into the chaotic world.

……

The Imperial Palace of the Ming Dynasty, the Golden Palace.

Zhu Xiong Ying sat high on the dragon throne, looking down at the assembled officials below.

"My beloved ministers, I have an important matter to announce today," Zhu Xiong Ying said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, please speak," the ministers said in unison.

"I have broken free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao and become the Heavenly Dao of this world!" Zhu Xiong Ying's voice resounded throughout the entire Golden Palace!
Upon hearing this, the courtiers were all greatly alarmed!
"Your Majesty... what... what did you say?" an old minister asked tremblingly.

"I say, I am the will of Heaven!" Zhu Xiong Ying repeated himself, his tone filled with unquestionable authority!
