In reality, Ding Yun hadn't anticipated that her plan to unify the Demon Realm would have such a profound impact, directly or indirectly forcing everyone to assist her. Fortunately, regardless of the method, the current outcome was positive, the reasons were coherent, and there seemed to be no hidden conspiracies.
Thus, Ding Yun quickly put her worries aside.
She continued to advance according to her original plan.
However, just as Ding Yun was mostly at ease, and most of her companions also felt that this mission was a sure thing and would be successfully completed soon, a momentous event occurred in the Immortal Realm that shook all Immortal Venerables and Demon Venerables.
That event was at the Hunyuan Imperial Palace, where an unprecedented terrifying pressure suddenly erupted. This pressure radiated throughout the entire Immortal Realm and even spread a considerable amount into the Demon Realm.
Following the appearance of the pressure.
More celestial phenomena followed.
Auspicious clouds filled the sky, and spiritual rain blessed the world. The joy of the beings in the Immortal Realm was merely the prelude. What followed was the activation of the laws of heaven and earth, with countless Dao principles circulating wildly. The closer one was to the Hunyuan Imperial Palace, the clearer the Dao principles became. Many immortal clans immersed themselves in the Dao principles, their cultivation and realms improving every moment. Some cultivators who had long reached the perfection of their original realms were able to break through smoothly because of this.
Golden Immortals became Immortal Lords, and Immortal Lords broke through to Grand Unity.
Most terrifyingly and outrageously, the two eldest disciples of the Hunyuan Immortal Venerable, who guarded the Hunyuan Imperial Palace at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm, also broke through to the Immortal Venerable realm due to the surrounding diffused Dao principles.

This demonstrated the magnitude and depth of the blessings from this celestial phenomenon.
As these Dao principles gradually receded, the Dharma image of the Hunyuan Immortal Venerable then appeared above the Hunyuan Imperial Palace. Simultaneously, everyone could clearly see a Hunyuan law, which permeated heaven and earth and had almost materialized, coiling around the Hunyuan Immortal Venerable. It was as if the supreme dignity of an emperor was stirring the surrounding space. This was followed by the appearance of three thousand laws, transforming into colossal dragons slightly smaller than the Hunyuan law, which were then absorbed and assimilated by the Hunyuan law.
As the laws were absorbed by the Hunyuan law.
The Hunyuan law did not grow larger; instead, it gradually shrank. With each point it shrunk, a new radiance emanated from it. By the time all three thousand laws were completely absorbed, the original Hunyuan law had lost all resemblance of its Hunyuan form. It transformed from a boundless, chaotic dragon into a radiant, round fruit.
It contained three thousand laws within, its pressure as vast as the Heavenly Dao.
Upon witnessing this, Ding Yun's clone and her companions immediately knew that something big had happened. Their originally smooth and problem-free mission had become troubled.
This was clearly the Hunyuan Dao Fruit.
Moreover, it was a Hunyuan Dao Fruit that contained the status of a half-world master. How to describe it? If converted to the Primordial World, it would be equivalent to the fusion of a Saint's Dao Fruit and the Heavenly Emperor's status, almost comparable to a half-world master.
If not for the Immortal Realm and Demon Realm of the Immortal-Demon world being a unified entity, and the Demon Realm being branded by Ding Yun, becoming its de facto master, it would be difficult to say whether the Hunyuan Dao Fruit condensed by him would contain the status of a half-world master or a whole world master.
To put it more simply.
The Hunyuan Immortal Venerable had broken through.
He had broken through the original Immortal Venerable realm and opened up a new realm, a realm that had never appeared in their world. However, Ding Yun and the others knew very well that although this realm was nominally comparable to Saints or Supreme Gods in other worlds.
With the half-world master status contained within his Dao Fruit, it allowed him to exert power comparable to a Creator God in the Immortal Realm. He could even mobilize the power of the entire Immortal Realm to a certain extent, no less than a Dao Ancestor in the Dao Integration realm, capable of easily suppressing a Demon Venerable.
And not just one.
He could suppress all nine of them together.
Regardless of how other forces reacted, Ding Yun and her fellow pioneers immediately panicked and quickly sent a wisp of consciousness into the plaza to discuss.
"It is said that the Hunyuan Immortal Venerable was the first being to break through the Immortal Venerable realm since the creation of the world. Even the Venerable rank itself was pioneered by him. Regardless of the world, a pioneer is bound to have something special.
Although he had not been able to break through further before, his status countless years ago was indeed like the Dao Ancestors of other worlds. It was only later that the number of Immortal Venerables increased, and he rarely took action, so the other Immortal Venerables somewhat overlooked him, and might have underestimated him."
"Damn it, we shouldn't have overlooked him. We should have even tried to kill him beforehand. Such a special existence, it's even normal for him to have the ability to communicate with the world's consciousness. Also, you all saw the world master status contained within that Hunyuan Dao Fruit, right? That status isn't something one automatically gets just by condensing a Hunyuan Dao Fruit.
Even if he is the first to break through this realm.
Without sufficient destiny and recognition from beings, he could not have obtained it automatically. Therefore, there is only one possibility for him to obtain the half-world master status: the Immortal Realm's consciousness gave him a backdoor. In fact, I suspect his smooth and sudden breakthrough is related to the world's consciousness.
Perhaps the world's consciousness perceived a threat?"
"Is it because the Demon Realm was unified?"
"Possibly, but we can't be sure..."
"The Demon Realm doesn't seem to have a world consciousness..."
"It does, it's just that the Demon Realm's world consciousness is very weak, and even its instincts are not very comprehensive. The world consciousness is closely related to the number of lives within the world.
Although the beings in the Demon Realm are powerful, their total numbers are indeed more than ten times less than in the Immortal Realm. It's normal for the Immortal Realm's consciousness to be stronger than the Demon Realm's and even have instincts."
"Regardless of the reason, we are in trouble this time, and we might even fail the mission. If the Hunyuan Immortal Venerable had merely become a Saint, it would have been manageable, and we might have been able to contend. But now, not only has he become a Saint, but he has also gained authority over the Immortal Realm. Let alone whether we can deal with him.
With his authority, it would be easy for him to discover our past actions through the River of Time and the River of Destiny. All our schemes and tricks would be useless.
This is difficult. How about we just retreat!"
"Don't rush, there is still hope. Now, we can probably only put all our eggs in one basket and gamble on this Ding Yun fellow.
Isn't she the de facto master of the Demon Realm?
Although she hasn't fully refined the origin of the Demon Realm and broken through again, for now, she is the only one who can become the first Saint of the Demon Realm. Therefore, we can only place all our hopes on her and assist her as much as possible. As long as Ding Yun can break through in the shortest time, with her current actual power to rule the entire Demon Realm, taking possession of the half-world master status of the Demon Realm should be no problem. Then, we might be able to contend!"
"Can it succeed?"
"Whether it succeeds or not, this is the only plan that seems to have a sliver of hope after much deliberation. Besides her, who else can break through to Saint in such a short time?"
"Forget it, let's try our best, as if it's our last hope!"
"I remember that the origin of the Demon Realm was severely damaged because she forcibly elevated many demons to the Demon Venerable realm, right? Then she might not be a match for the Hunyuan Immortal Venerable. How about we dig into the Immortal Realm's corner before we leave? Take as much origin immortal veins as we can.
By the way, everyone must be fast.
Don't get killed before you succeed..."
"Right, right, Ding Yun, are you there? I remember your conceptual-level river god can weaken the origin of an entire world, right? Quickly send your conceptual-level river god to your clone in the Immortal Realm, and have that clone desperately use it.
Desperately convert some good things.
Weaken the origin of the Immortal Realm as much as possible..."
"That's right, now we don't need to consider the distinction between Immortal and Demon anymore. We must all enter the Demon Realm.
Align with the Demon Realm's faction.
Also, we should stop thinking about killing those nine Demon Venerables for now. Let's see if we can unite them and present a united front, rallying all possible strength."
"Don't just keep discussing, hurry up and dig into the corner. We can discuss while we dig."
"That's right, that's right, let's get moving."
