Chapter 556 The Heavenly Dao in a Dire Situation and Its Subordinates
That vast and mighty will completely ignored them, as if it didn't see them at all and didn't care.
It neither unleashed divine punishment to reap them nor even glanced at them.
It simply scanned every inch of the world with frantic speed.
Everyone looked into the depths of the starry sky, at the supreme will that was still frantically searching, and the same thought arose in everyone's mind—what is the Heavenly Dao looking for?
They could all sense that Heaven was in a great hurry, as if it were urgently looking for something.
And there was also a hint of... fear.
Yes, fear, that lofty will was tinged with fear, carrying an inexplicable panic.
It seemed to sense something terrible, something that could threaten its existence.
Now, these powerful figures from different eras stared wide-eyed, almost unable to believe their own senses.
Is Heaven afraid?
What in this world can make the Heavenly Dao fear?
That's the will of Heaven.
It is the master of this world, the holder of the fate of all beings, and the supreme being who is high above and overlooks everything.
Throughout history, it has always been the only thing that inspires fear in all living beings.
But now, it is afraid.
"This...how is this possible?"
An ancient being who had lived for several eras cried out in shock, his face filled with horror.
"The ancient forbidden god Dugu Potian, the Demon Ancestor—which of these supreme beings didn't defy the heavens?"
"But even they couldn't possibly instill fear in the Heavenly Dao, could they?"
"But now it has actually appeared. What kind of existence is this that terrifies the Heavenly Dao?"
No one could answer him, because no one knew, except for the most powerful beings like the Demon Ancestor; no one knew the specifics.
Heaven did not give up; it continued its frantic search, again and again.
Above the starry sky, that will swept across every inch of space in the six realms like a raging storm.
Chen Bei had just come out of the Cemetery of Gods and Demons and had just arrived in the so-called territory of the Chu Kingdom.
"What...what is this?"
He stopped and looked up at the sky.
The oppressive feeling was too strong, like an invisible mountain pressing down on my chest, making it difficult to even breathe.
Chen Bei's face turned pale, and he felt a sudden panic.
A thought flashed through his mind: "Could they be here to see me?"
Having just been resurrected and emerged from the Cemetery of Gods and Demons, this kind of thing happening was bound to make him panic.
After all, there must be a big secret behind his resurrection. Perhaps his father's enemies sensed something and wanted to kill him.
Chen Bei swallowed hard and muttered to himself.
"I'm having such a terrible time... I just got resurrected and this happened right away."
"God, can't you just give me a couple of days of peace and quiet?"
In the primordial chaos beyond the heavens, where the chaotic energy surged, four enormous figures sat cross-legged.
Chaotic energy surged and swirled around them, like a vast ocean or a surging tide.
The four figures were all as tall as mountains, surrounded by a hazy gray light, their faces indistinct.
At this moment, the four terrifying beings suddenly opened their eyes, their eyes filled with fear.
"This aura...is it the Heavenly Emperor? No, impossible!"
One of them trembled, utterly horrified!
"That's right, this is the aura of the Heavenly Emperor. I will never forget his aura in my entire life."
The other person's body jolted violently, gray light surged, and he spoke with a very ugly expression, deep fear flashing in his eyes, as if recalling some nightmare.
"That's not right, wasn't the Heavenly Emperor completely annihilated? I witnessed that battle with my own eyes... how could this be..."
He shut his mouth, afraid to think about it anymore; what happened back then was his nightmare.
The other three shared the same expression as him: shock, fear, and disbelief, a mix of emotions swirling within them.
Normally, they are high above, looking down on all living beings. But at this moment, only fear fills their eyes.
Because that man was terrifying; back then, he almost killed them all with just a casual strike.
If it weren't for that unexpected incident, they would have been wiped out long ago.
Now, that aura has reappeared.
"If the Heavenly Emperor returns, we..."
The first one didn't finish his sentence, but the other three knew what he wanted to say.
The four looked at each other, and each saw the same thought in the other's eyes.
Will they be so lucky this time?
The massive bodies of the four Chaos Lords trembled, gripped by fear from the depths of their souls.
In another void, Guangyuan sat cross-legged in a black palace. He wore a dark ancient robe, his face was hidden in the mist, and his eyes were as black as an abyss.
Chaotic energy surged around him, countless black tentacles appeared and disappeared, his face was hazy and indistinct, and his eyes were like a dead abyss.
The black tentacles swayed slightly with the chaotic airflow, exuding an indifferent aura of dominating all things.
But at this moment, there was only fear in those eyes.
"This is the aura of the Heavenly Emperor! The Heavenly Emperor... is the Heavenly Emperor about to return?"
His voice was shrill, filled with fear and disbelief.
"Impossible. How could he still be alive after that incident?"
Guangyuan stood up and paced back and forth, walking faster and faster.
"It's over...it's over...if he comes back, I'll be the first one to die..."
Cold sweat poured down his forehead.
In the heavens, a lonely planet floats on the edge of chaos.
The planet was barren, except for a single palace, which stood entirely white.
A middle-aged figure sat cross-legged in the center of the palace, surrounded by radiant light, as holy as a god.
His face was flawless, yet it exuded an aloof indifference, as if devoid of any emotion, much like the very essence of Heaven itself.
He truly had no emotions, for he was Taiyuan, a subordinate of the Heavenly Dao, and he cultivated the Taiyuan Forgetfulness Record, having long since severed all emotions and desires.
But at this moment, even on his face, which was usually devoid of emotion, Taiyuan showed emotion, his face filled with fear.
"The Heavenly Emperor..."
Taiyuan murmured softly, his fingers trembling slightly.
"In that battle back then, we joined forces and barely managed to block one of his casual attacks. If he were to return now..."
He couldn't help but shiver. After a long silence, Taiyuan finally raised his head and looked into the depths of the starry sky.
"I hope... it's just an illusion."
But his eyes betrayed him; he didn't believe it was an illusion.
Above the Cemetery of Gods and Demons.
The middle-aged phantom stood in the void, his body shrouded in layers of runes, blending seamlessly with the mausoleum's grand formation.
The will of Heaven swept over him, finding nothing unusual, and continued its search.
The middle-aged phantom raised its head, looked at the departing will, and a cold smile curled at the corner of its mouth.
"So you can be afraid too."
His tone was filled with an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
"You can feel fear too? It seems that the old rumor was true."
His gaze deepened as he recalled the old rumor.
In the Deathly Abyss, the Heaven-Deceiving Array automatically activated, locking the eight demonic caves and the silver-haired figure layer by layer.
The chains rattled and runes flashed, concealing all traces of their presence.
The will of Heaven swept across, revealing only desolation and decay.
The silver-haired figure sat cross-legged on the bone bed, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"You're scared? You've finally met your match."
"Just wait, the day the Heavenly Emperor returns will be the day you perish."
The strange iron chains rattled, as if in agreement.
Deep within the Six Paths of the Netherworld, in a stone chamber, a woman gazed at the sky, a cold glint in her eyes.
"Haha, you're getting anxious, aren't you? But don't rush."
