I am a living immortal.

Although the peak beings were not affected by the changes in the environment, they could still feel it. The mirage dragon's expression changed again and again. Di Jun was really bold: "No wonder, no wonder you came back."

"I've already said the outcome is uncertain. How could we agree without Di Jun's promise? Let's see how you guys crack this trick. Speaking of which, you really shock me. So many top-level beings have appeared in just ten thousand years. If you were given more time to develop, you might not be able to defeat us. Di Jun is quite foresighted!"

"It's just a pseudo-Heavenly Way." Mirage Dragon appeared dismissive, but a trace of worry remained within him. After all, even if it was a pseudo-Heavenly Way, it was still the Heavenly Way. He had witnessed the war when this world's world consciousness, or Heavenly Way, was able to single-handedly challenge all the innate gods. Those pinnacle beings were not the mere pariahs of today.

Before, he couldn't understand why the most powerful of those peak beings didn't resist. Only after he truly became an innate god did he understand. It wasn't that they didn't resist, but that they had resisted, though the common people were unaware of it. Their subsequent flight into the void was sufficient to explain the outcome of that resistance.

Now, Emperor Jun actually forcibly upgraded himself at the cost of nine caves. Although it was preceded by the word "fake," its power might not be as great as the true Heavenly Dao, but it was still powerful enough.

Speaking of which, what the hell is the authentic Tiandao doing?

Someone's intention to usurp the throne was already obvious, so why didn't they know how to intervene? This was something Shenlong couldn't understand.

But no matter what, he could only place his hopes on Su Mu. He hoped that Su Mu would return soon. Now that even the false Heavenly Dao had been created, if he didn't come out to make a decision, this war would be heading towards the destruction of the world.

Bai Ze has returned, where is Su Mu?

Elsewhere, a massive Fusang tree towered above time. Di Jun's last vestiges of humanity vanished, ascending to become the Way of Heaven. His gaze pierced past and present, and a single palm movement controlled the sun, moon, and stars. Most of the world's secrets and origins were no longer mysterious to him. He was a figure of another dimension.

The pressure on the Emperor of Heaven and the Holy Lord increased sharply.

They were no longer fighting against Di Jun, but against the whole world.

"Is this right?" The Holy Lord also felt that it was a bit outrageous.

Logically speaking, the first person to face this pseudo-Heavenly Dao state should be the Heavenly Dao. Now that the authentic Heavenly Dao has disappeared, this pseudo-Heavenly Dao has really taken over, which is extremely uncomfortable.

The creatures born from his fire were wiped out in an instant, leaving not even a trace. To rectify the chaos, the world would not allow such creatures to be born or survive. And the Emperor of Heaven was even more so. Those powers that controlled heaven and earth were nothing compared to the heavens themselves. This perfectly embodied the dictatorship and tyranny of the innate gods.

They were completely and utterly countered, and it was incredibly uncomfortable. Time wasn't as gentle as usual, but rather became incredibly violent. The entire world was against them.

The only consolation now was that Di Jun could truly be considered a god. His way of thinking was also approaching that of the Heavenly Dao. His absolute rationality allowed him to focus most of his attention on the world, rather than just the Holy Lord and the Heavenly Emperor.

The pressure from the Heavenly Dao is distributed among all the top beings.

The world is changing. Does he really intend to change it?

Di Jun's golden pupils glanced past.

The Saint Monarch and the Heavenly Emperor had tried their best to resist, but to no avail. They had lost all means of counterattack. They exchanged helpless glances, deciding it would be better to return to their world than remain here.

Just as the two were about to move, a golden light blocked their way.

Sitting on the throne, Di Jun said calmly, "You can't leave here."

As his words were spoken, a chaotic tide surged above time, forming a massive cage around him. Strands of time piled upon him, attempting to pull the two into an unknowable, infinite cycle.

The Emperor of Heaven and the Holy Lord had no time to react.

The world before my eyes was replaced by darkness.

This silence, devoid of all noise, brings an incredible sense of peace, as if returning to the womb and the innate state.

"Where is this?" The Saint Lord clearly noticed the difference. The Emperor of Heaven, without changing his expression, explained, "This is the very bottom of the river of time, a place of forgotten space from which there is no return. It is also the foundation of the world's existence."

“But we prefer to call it the place of origin.”

"The Origin?" Although the Saint Lord inherited a portion of Su Mu's memories, they lacked the memory of Su Mu's initial glimpse into the Origin. He observed carefully, noting something unusual. Rather than darkness, this place resembled the most primitive state of undivided chaos.

It is the law of blending into one.

"Yes, the Land of Origin. But there's a name you might be more familiar with. The innate gods also call this place Eternal Silence."

"They come here after death, waiting to return again. You should also feel the tranquility of a mother's womb."

This is the root, where everything begins and ends.

"What does Di Jun want to do?" The Holy Lord didn't quite understand.

"It's simple. He knows that ordinary means can't effectively hinder us, but it's different here. Getting out may take a lot of time and energy. This will become a cage that traps us for a long time, and we will have to break it."

“Then we…”

The two peak beings sighed simultaneously. The situation was now more complicated than they had imagined. Di Jun's ascension had disrupted everyone's plans. All they could do now was to get out as quickly as possible.

"The Origin Land is not easy to reach. It might even be a blessing in disguise, but this war..." the Emperor said. The Origin Land is also a treasure trove for the pinnacle beings, but the timing is wrong.

.........

When the Emperor of Heaven and the Holy Lord were trapped in the root place.

Di Jun withdrew his gaze and completely projected his will onto the battlefield within the world. Within the world, the shadow of the giant Fusang tree high in the sky supported the heavens and the earth, illuminating the world's sky with gold and red.

His perceptive gaze swept across the world inch by inch, never pausing for a moment. He seemed to be searching for something. Only a few beings who knew the truth showed a change of expression; they knew what Di Jun was looking for.
