Eternal Sacred King

Chapter 3369: Emotionless Heavenly Dao

Die Yue asked, “Although the Heavenly Being Dao is one of the Six Paths, this Lord of the Heavenly Being Dao survived the huge turmoil back then. Could he have stood on the side of the five Sanctuaries back then?”

“Perhaps.”

Su Zimo said, “It’s also possible that this was part of Saint Thearch Reincarnation’s original arrangement to keep the Lord of the Heavenly Being Dao in the major chiliocosm as a chess piece.”

“Now that Saint Thearch Reincarnation has returned to the major chiliocosm, the Lord of the Heavenly Being Dao returned to his side as well.”

“Chess piece?”

Die Yue asked, “What’s the use of Saint Thearch Reincarnation’s move?”

“I’m not sure.”

Su Zimo said in a deep voice, “I think it might be related to the Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon of the 33 Heavens.”

“There’s another Heavenly Dao Saint Weapon in the 33 Heavens?”

Die Yue said, “The weapon of Saint Thearch Reincarnation?”

Su Zimo nodded. “If that wasn’t the case, there was no way the five Saint Lords would have returned empty-handed even after charging into the 33 Heavens with their Heavenly Dao Saint Weapons.”

“After entering the 33 Heavens, be it Saint Weapons or combat strength, they will be suppressed in some way.”

Lin Xuanji leaned over and asked curiously, “How many experts like Saint Thearch Reincarnation are there in the major chiliocosm?”

“There were originally eight.”

Su Zimo said, “Six of them are Genesis Essence Spirits who were born at the start of the trichiliocosm and they represent the six Heavenly Daos—Yin Yang, Divine Punishment, Nirvana, Ancestral Fire, Space Time and Chaos. Later on, two living beings cultivated to the same level and opened up another two Heavenly Daos, Life and Reincarnation.”

Su Zimo recounted the matter of the Genesis Essence Spirits to everyone.

Everyone was enlightened.

That was the origin of the eight Sanctuaries!

Su Zimo said, “However, in that turmoil more than six billion years ago, the Chaos Green Lotus and Saint Thearch Life died. Now, there are only six Saint Thearchs left.”

Lin Xuanji frowned. “The Saint Thearchs backing the five Sanctuaries will definitely join forces. Even if Saint Thearch Reincarnation has returned in this generation, how can he fight them?”

“Zimo should have a chance of becoming a Saint Thearch as well. If he joins forces with Reincarnation, they might stand a fighting chance.”

Demoness Ji said.

Lin Xuanji said, “Even so, that’s just two Saint Thearchs.”

“According to the information available, during the turmoil back then, Saint Thearch Chaos, Saint Thearch Life and Saint Thearch Reincarnation were on the same side. Even so, they were defeated. Two Saint Thearchs died and the three Sanctuaries were destroyed.”

“If it’s a two-on-five situation in this generation, there’s still no chance of winning, right?”

Everyone nodded. What Lin Xuanji said made sense.

Su Zimo said, “I’m guessing that although the five Saint Thearchs did not die in that huge turmoil back then, they might have encountered some irrecoverable injuries.”

Injuries that even Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs could not recover from?

In that case, what about Saint Thearch Reincarnation?

Everyone still had many questions in their hearts.

Of course, that was only Su Zimo’s guess. Until the moment he actually saw the five Saint Thearchs, there was no way he could make an accurate judgment.

Die Yue suddenly asked, “Will the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings threaten the Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs?”

“It won’t threaten them.”

Su Zimo shook his head.

Saint Thearch Reincarnation had once said that there were very few people who could survive the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings.

He should be referring to the few Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs!

Die Yue said, “Since that huge turmoil more than six billion years ago was caused by the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings, why did it trigger a battle between Saint Thearchs?”

Everyone understood what Die Yue meant.

Since the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings could not threaten the Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs, there was no need for the few Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs to be involved in that huge turmoil back then.

In reality, Su Zimo was puzzled about that as well.

According to Saint Thearch Reincarnation, the battle back then originated from the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings. It started with 3,000 Human Saints who could not bear to see all living beings destroyed and fought against the five Sanctuaries.

However, if the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings could not threaten the Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs, even if all the Saints and Great Saints were dead, there was no need for the few Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs to attack.

There must be another reason.

Lin Xuanji asked, “What exactly caused the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings?”

Su Zimo pondered for a long time before saying slowly, “According to Saint Thearch Reincarnation, the root of the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings lies in eternal life.”

“However, in reality, although the 3,000 Great Daos are eternal and indestructible, the existence of the 3,000 Great Daos alone will not trigger the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings.”

“All the 3,000 Great Daos have their own formulations and they will only make the trichiliocosm more stable and prosperous.”

“However, once living beings of the ten thousand races synthesize with the Dao to become Saints, that will cause the Great Daos to possess selfishness and greed. Such selfishness and greed will lead to all sorts of imbalances and inequalities.”

“Since the bloodlines of Saints are endless, their factions will intertwine and they will occupy more and more resources. The struggle for survival of the ten thousand races will become increasingly intense and karma will collide, creating many minor and major calamities.”

“If Saints die, their energy will return to the world and the factions under them will eventually decline. The world will eventually return to balance. However, such calamities can’t threaten Saints at all.”

“As long as the Saints are not dead, the number of calamities will continue to increase. Once it’s accumulated to a certain point, it will cause karma to collapse and the universe will lose its balance. The Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings will descend and kill everything, including Saints, causing the world to return to chaos so that it can evolve again.”

As though he had comprehended something, Lin Xuanji nodded and said, “Upon reaching their peak, all things must decline and reverse. This is the most fundamental rule and is also to maintain the balance of the world. However, because Saints possess eternal life, they will prosper forever and that destroyed the balance.”

Die Yue said, “It’s no wonder why Saint Thearch Life said that the hope of resolving the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings lies with Fellow Daoist Yaoxue.”

“That’s right.”

Su Zimo said, “Now that Yaoxue has cultivated to the level of Love Sunder, she’s already a Great Saint. If she can take another step forward, she’ll be Emotionless and create a new Heavenly Dao!”

“When people say that the heavens are emotionless and unsympathetic, it’s because they view all living beings of the ten thousand races equally without any personal selfishness or greed. That should be the reason why Saint Thearch Life said that ‘True justice and benevolence only comes without emotions’.”

Lin Xuanji murmured softly, “This means that under that Heavenly Dao, be it weak mayflies and ants or the mighty gods, immortals and fiends, they shall all be equal.”

“But how can that be achieved?”

Die Yue shook her head. “Even if Fellow Daoist Yaoxue advances further and becomes a Heavenly Dao Saint Thearch, she’ll only be on par with the few Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs and won’t be able to change the situation of the trichiliocosm.”

Lin Xuanji added, “To make the Saints give up on their selfishness and greed is equivalent to making them give up everything they have. This is almost equivalent to fighting against the entire trichiliocosm.”

Demoness Ji said, “If she joins forces with Reincarnation to suppress the five Heavenly Dao Saint Thearchs, they will definitely stand a chance!”

“Perhaps.”

Su Zimo thought for a moment. “Actually, I can see some things from the lineage memories of the Chaos Green Lotus.”

“Back then, the Chaos Green Lotus and Saint Thearch Life tried to find a way to resolve the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings. That was the goal of the Chaos Green Lotus in creating the Heaven and Earth Creation Diagram.”

“Unfortunately, because the Heaven and Earth Creation Diagram was born from the trichiliocosm, there was no way to continue evolving it.”
