I just woke up and became a saint.

It was like a moment, seemingly eternity, as Shangqing began to immerse himself in and comprehend the heaven-defying enlightenment. The operation of time and space seemed to become blurred at this moment, as if time had frozen under the power of the heaven-defying enlightenment.

An unknown amount of time passed before Shangqing's consciousness gradually returned to normal in a daze. A mysterious light flashed around his body, and traces of Taoist marks, divine patterns, and immortal rhythms fell from the void and were outlined between Shangqing's eyebrows.

When Shangqing opened his eyes, a mark had already formed between his eyebrows. It was beyond words and difficult to describe. It seemed to go to the root, carry the source of everything, and represent the end of everything.

"Is this the heaven-defying enlightenment gained after transformation and advancement..."

Muttering to himself, Shangqing looked around, and the mark between his eyebrows flickered, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

[You have surveyed the long river of time and space. In a single glance, you have penetrated through appearances to the very source of the long river of time and space, clearly understanding the evolution of the Three Thousand Great Daos and glimpsing their extension.]

Your gaze focused on the Great Dao of Creation, and you immediately perceived its branches and evolutions. Focusing on this, you created a Heavenly Dao-level magical power, the Great Creation Technique.

Your gaze once again fell upon the Great Dao of Destruction, and your terrifying understanding once again allowed you to gain something, creating a Heavenly Dao-level magical power, the Great Destruction Technique.

Your gaze...

Your gaze...

Your gaze...

Moment!

Just a moment!

Shangqing's eyes swept across the long river of time and space, and he directly created the Great Creation Art, the Great Destruction Art, the Great Origin Art, the Great Energy Art, the Great Creation Art, the Great World Art, the Great Killing Art, the Great Star Art, the Great Defense Art, the Great Reincarnation Art, and other only twenty kinds of heavenly-level magical powers!

Incredible enlightenment?

This is not something that can be achieved by the heaven-defying enlightenment, nor can it be summarized by the heaven-defying enlightenment. To be precise, the heaven-defying enlightenment now should be called... the root of enlightenment!

He is the source of understanding! He is the source of understanding!

Not to mention the ancient times, looking across all the heavens and worlds, no one can surpass him in comprehension. Even the comprehension of all the giants in the heavens combined is difficult to compete with Shangqing!

"Where did I get this understanding from? Was it a gift from the Great Dao? Or whether the Great Dao itself is so awesome is another matter."

Shangqing took a deep breath and felt a little toothache.

This thing was beyond Shangqing's cognition. Even though he had thought that it would be terrifying after the transformation of his heaven-defying enlightenment, it was still beyond Shangqing's expectations and imagination to be so terrifying.

"I can't fathom its origins right now, so there's no point in trying to figure it out."

Shaking his head, Shangqing let out a breath to clear his mind and looked back at the long river of time and space.

Just now, at that moment in the long river of time and space, he not only comprehended a large number of heavenly-level magical powers, but also vaguely sensed other things. However, he was shocked by the improvement of his talent at that time, so he suppressed it temporarily. Now that he knows how amazing his comprehension is, he will try to comprehend it again.

Your eyes can see through the movement of the long river of time and space, tracing back the evolution of each space and timeline. You discover other branches hidden under the long river of time and space, and realize the existence of parallel space and time and dimensional space and time.

You have gained a new understanding of the River of Time and Space. With a sudden enlightenment, you realize that the essence of the River of Time and Space is the root of everything. The infinite planes extending from the Hongmeng Sea are all gathered and operated by the River of Time and Space.

[The long river of time and space in each plane is a tributary, and it also converges into the main long river of time and space in the Hongmeng Sea, thus forming the evolution of the entire long river of time and space.]

[Each tributary of the long river of time and space on each plane contains the convergence of past timelines, and then extends to different time and space such as dimensional time and space, parallel time and space.]

The evolution of all time and space converges into the main river of time and space. The evolution of the Great Dao forms the framework of all reality and matter in the world. The evolution of the river of time and space represents the core of all spiritual and illusory aspects of the world, reflecting the root of everything.
