Chapter 1 The Beginning

The heavens and earth opened and closed, chaos permeated everything. In the boundless void, a vague figure sat cross-legged, bathed in immeasurable light.

"It's time to begin preaching the Dao to the myriad realms," Jiang Xuan said. In the next moment, heavenly lightning poured down, and countless beings in the myriad heavens looked up, as if witnessing a chaotic lightning tribulation that could shatter universes and destroy the Great Thousand Worlds.

"What's happening?"

An ancient existence looked over, their gaze piercing through countless worlds, only to see an unparalleled figure. A mere wisp of that being's gaze made them feel as if their soul and true spirit were about to explode.

"Limitless Grand Dao—First Realm, Dao Foundation!"

As the chaotic heavenly sound reverberated, the heavens and earth trembled. People saw a beam of light descending from the heavens. Within the bodies of all living beings, a divine light seemed to shine, as if opening a path to the heavens.

"A new system?! There's a being who wants to innovate the current Dao!" A strong individual exclaimed in surprise. They could feel a seed appearing within their body, containing boundless divine light, as if connected to the origin of chaos.

"This is creation of a new cultivation method! Completely forging their own path. Now their words are law, interfering with the trajectory of the Great Dao and influencing the myriad realms!"

Some ancient and powerful beings were also shocked. This was simply unbelievable. Someone was creating a cultivation method, distinct from the past, forging a different path in the heavens and earth. When this method was first formed, it was as if they were commanding the universe!

When any system is first formed, there will be such phenomena, causing the heavens and earth to be in awe. But such phenomena had not appeared for countless years, and now it has reappeared!

"Second Realm, Hua Xuan!"

In the void, another voice fell. At the same time, the sound of scriptures shook the world, as if a certain Great Dao was echoing in the mortal realm, or as if an ancient god was chanting sutras, preaching to all living beings.

At this moment, an ancient scripture inexplicably appeared in the hearts of all living beings, its divine might majestic, like an unparalleled treasure.

"What an amazing ancient scripture, its concepts are extraordinary!"

A being exclaimed in admiration. Within their body, a Dao Foundation was built high, and on top of this Dao Foundation was a chaotic ancient stele, covered in divine patterns, actually integrating the true meaning and principles of heaven and earth, the truths of all living beings, yin and yang, the five elements, wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, and the myriad Daos of the world.

Finally, endless divine patterns intertwined, transforming into the character "Dao," as if explaining all the mysteries of the world.

"Third Realm, Divine Power (Shentong)!"

In the void, golden lotuses bloomed, then exploded, transforming into a rain of light, scattering towards the heavens. Every realm, every living being, and even those ancient and mysterious powerhouses, were enveloped by this rain of light.

Buzz—

A powerhouse who had begun to cultivate the Limitless Grand Dao had a burst of immortal light erupt from their body. Their essence, qi, and spirit suddenly unified, as if there was no distinction between physical power, mana, and divine sense. Every movement was a perfect integration, all power completely fused!

A casual punch contained physical power, mana, and divine sense, its power far stronger than those of the same realm!

"Fusing the three powers of essence, qi, and spirit, this new power may be the true divine power!" A being exclaimed in amazement. Even extremely powerful gods could not completely fuse the three levels of essence, qi, and spirit into one.

But this newly emerging system had achieved this in the third realm.

"Divine Power (Shentong)—Hutian Divine Art, is this the natal Divine Power (Shentong) I awakened?" Some beings also sensed the Divine Power (Shentong) they had awakened. This was a spatial Divine Power (Shentong), and when cultivated to its peak, it could envelop a realm within a sleeve, a rare and great Divine Power (Shentong).

"Fourth Realm, True Self!"

This realm is also called Return to Origin, where everything returns to the beginning, illuminating the original self, seeing the true self, and seeing the gods without being defeated.

The most terrifying thing was that the laws of heaven and earth began to condense within their bodies, and their souls seemed to transform into real beings, with illusion and reality intermingling, and their entire being seemed to fall into chaos, full of mystery.

"Fifth Realm, Refining Spirit!"

As the two ancient words emerged, the myriad realms were illuminated. Within the three souls and seven spirits of every living being, there seemed to be more mysterious powers, as if gods had taken residence. As long as one merged with them, one could have endless divine power.

"Comparable to gods!"

An ancient god said, he was also cultivating the Limitless Grand Dao with the power of preaching to the myriad realms, and now he had reached the level of Venerable God.

In this realm, the Heavenly Palace God Realm is also divided into many levels, from the lowest Venerable God, to True God, Yaochi, Godslaying Platform, Jade Capital, Lingxiao, Emperor's Seat, and finally the Heavenly Court, these eight major realms.

Of course, not many people know about the Heavenly Court realm. Most beings, and even most God Realms, only thought that the Heavenly Palace God Realm was divided into seven major realms in total.

But in fact, the Heavenly Court realm is the ultimate realm, but it is only a general framework, that is, the Heavenly Palace is just a palace in the Heavenly Court. There are thirty-six Heavenly Palaces in the Heavenly Court, and to surpass the Emperor's Seat, one must build the Heavenly Court and open up the thirty-six Heavenly Palaces!

Reaching the Heavenly Court realm will be a great improvement and leap for those with Divine Power (Shentong), a qualitative leap!

Now, this Refining Spirit great realm can be comparable to the seven great realms from Venerable God to Emperor's Seat!

"Could this be a method created by a powerhouse who has entered the Heavenly Court realm?" This ancient god couldn't help frowning. Perhaps only that kind of existence could create a new path.

"Sixth Realm, Entering the Dao!"

Dang!

At this moment, the heavens and earth seemed to stand still. The universe, the void, and the river of time all seemed to freeze at this moment, and all power seemed to stop.

Only an ancient voice echoed in everyone's heart. The Heavenly Emperor preached the Dao, and all living beings obtained the method.

"How is this possible?!"

In the heavens, countless ancient gods were shocked. If the fifth realm, Refining Spirit, was comparable to the seven great realms from Venerable God to Emperor's Seat, then this Entering the Dao level was truly transcending above!

"Heavenly Court? Is this the mystery of the Heavenly Court realm?"

An ancient god's eyes were burning. He didn't know what was so wonderful about the Heavenly Court realm, but the sound of chanting scriptures echoing in his mind clearly told him how strong the Entering the Dao level was!

Reversing Yin and Yang, Reversing Life and Death, Controlling the Universe!

Mastering the power of the Dao, untouched by time, power reaching the ultimate in the universe!

"Who exactly is it that can create such a system? Is it the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Duke, the Earth Count, or the several Celestial Venerables?" An ancient god speculated in his heart. Perhaps only these extremely ancient existences could do it.

"Seventh Realm, Heavenly Dao!"

Boom!

At this moment, the heavens were boiling, Heavenly Dao!

These two words represented everything. Even the many ancient gods and Celestial Venerables did not dare to speak these two words lightly. However, someone had divided it into a realm!

The Heavenly Dao realm, surpassing all Daos in the universe, surpassing the universe's time and space, I am the heavens, I am the myriad Daos, I can go deep into chaos and explore the other shore!

The mysteries of this realm amazed all gods and cultivators. Even the ancient Heavenly Duke and Earth Count, when they heard the Dao and principles of this realm, and the ancient scriptures of this realm, gave birth to an emotion called desire.

Divine light descended from the heavens, and countless worlds were enveloped by the strongest power. A chaotic light ran through the entire universe, and the sound of the Dao resounded in the minds of all cultivators in the heavens and worlds.

But not everyone could understand it. The ancient scriptures of this level were too mysterious. Even the ancient gods and Celestial Venerables could not completely comprehend them, let alone ordinary beings.

"Eighth Realm, Eternal!"

Chaotic immortal light broke through the barriers of the universe and rushed into the boundless chaos. Ancient universes floated in the chaos, but at this time, a boundless light shone on all worlds.

Chaos rumbled, and a phantom appeared in the chaos, like an unparalleled Heavenly Emperor, holy and indescribable!

"Eternal!"

Two ancient words were spoken from his mouth. Countless universes and countless beings heard this voice. At the same time, it was as if an unparalleled god was preaching in their minds, explaining the cultivation method of this realm.

"With a thought, the universe and time and space are born. With a thought, the heavens crumble. Creating something from nothing, evolving essence, turning death into life, mysterious and unpredictable, creating all phenomena in an instant."

"Cause and effect are determined by me, I am the cause, I am the effect."

"Endless lifespan, spanning time and space, free and unfettered."

"What... what kind of realm is this!"

An ancient god exclaimed in amazement. This realm was no longer something they could understand, surpassing all Daos, inconceivable!

"Supreme Mysterious Heavenly Venerable, what kind of existence are you?!"

In Yankang Country, Emperor Yanfeng sighed in panic. Now, Yankang Country had already enshrined Jiang Xuan as the only true god and Dao Ancestor, and the incense was constant every day, but he never expected that this existence would be so amazing.

"Unimaginable, incomprehensible, even the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, the ancient Heavenly Duke, and the Earth Count, absolutely do not have such power." Jiang Baigui's eyes were also horrified.

Even he could not imagine what kind of existence could possess this power, and what level one would have to reach to create such a system that surpassed the past and present?

"Ninth Realm, Dominator!"

Chaotic immortal light spread throughout the heavens, but this time, the ancient scriptures did not sound again. In the dark, there seemed to be some kind of power that isolated the listening of all beings.

"What's going on? Is this ninth realm not yet complete? Not allowed to descend?" In a universe, the strongest person standing at the peak of the universe frowned.

But if it was not completed, how could that unknown existence have said it?

"Perhaps, this realm is too mysterious, all words, all texts, all Daos cannot explain it, or rather, this realm is already the ultimate of the Dao, we are too far behind, so we cannot understand and listen."

A supreme powerhouse speculated. In the chaos, immortal light was still permeating, covering all realms, which showed that the preaching to the myriad realms had not ended, but they could not hear the slightest bit, which could only mean that their levels were too low to understand the mysteries of that level.

In short, the Dao was in front of them, but they were not worthy to know!

"This..."

A supreme powerhouse in the universe smiled bitterly. He had stood at the peak for countless years, and this was the first time he had encountered this situation.

Preaching to him, but he was not worthy to listen because his realm was too low and he could not understand the mysteries.

"Tenth Realm, Innate Five Tais..."

"First step, Taiji!"

"Second step, Taisu!"

"Third step, Taishi!"

"Fourth step, Taichu!"

"Fifth step, Taiyi!"

In the heavens and myriad realms, voices sounded one after another, but all living beings, even the supreme powerhouses standing at the peak of the universe, could only hear the names of each realm, but could not hear the mysteries and cultivation methods of these realms.

"How weak am I?!"

A supreme powerhouse wanted to cry but had no tears. Standing at the peak for endless years, it was the first time he had the idea that he was a weakling.

No!

Judging from the current situation, he couldn't even be considered a weakling, at most he could be considered an ant!

"Cultivate! Cultivate!"

"I don't believe that I can't reach that supreme level!"

A being shouted, intending to cultivate the Limitless Grand Dao at any cost, and there were far more than just him with this idea.

In the heavens and myriad realms, among the infinite, countless supreme powerhouses and ancient gods of heaven and earth planned to cultivate the Limitless Grand Dao.

……

In the Great Ruins, Jiang Xuan's preaching ended.

The power of chaos that enveloped the boundless universe also gradually dissipated.

"Grand Dao Merit, Luck?"

Jiang Xuan sensed himself. At this time, merit and luck were condensed in his body, as if they were about to transform into a universe, and this was not the merit and luck of the Heavenly Dao, but at the level of the Grand Dao.

"Tasteless to eat, a pity to discard."

Jiang Xuan sighed.

If it was before, then this merit and luck would still be a little useful to him, but now, he really looked down on it a bit.

Although, his current realm is only equivalent to the Taishi realm, that is, the level of Immortality.

But he has initially become the same as Gu Chensha.

After all, he created the two levels of Taichu and Taiyi.

He dare not say about Taiyi, but the entire concept of the Taichu level was created by him. The power, laws, mysteries, Divine Power (Shentong), and methods are all defined by him.

Even if he has not reached the Taichu level, even if a living being truly breaks through to the Taichu realm, they will not be his opponent.

Moreover, in this world, no matter who it is, as long as they cultivate the Limitless Grand Dao, even if it is only a trace of enlightenment, it will be integrated into his body and absorbed by him.

In other words, even if someone cultivates to the Taichu level, all his understanding and insights will be completely mastered by Jiang Xuan!

Because he is now the Limitless Grand Dao, he is the source of the Limitless Grand Dao, all laws, all Daos, and even all the Divine Power (Shentong) and mysteries born in later generations will become his power.

The more beings develop the Limitless Grand Dao, the more they develop the Limitless Grand Dao, and even create new systems based on this Dao, all insights will belong to his body.

Eternal and invincible at the conceptual level!

Of course, the development time of this realm is still too short. Not to mention the Taichu level, even beings at the Taiji level, or even the Dominator level, have not been born.

Just like the realm where Jiang Xuan is now, even beings at the seventh realm, the Heavenly Dao level, have not yet truly set foot in it, let alone the fourth step, the Taichu realm, in the tenth realm.

Therefore, his strength has not yet reached the level of Gu Chensha, but this is only a matter of time.

Moreover, although Gu Chensha is ahead in time, Jiang Xuan also has an advantage in space. The heavens and myriad realms, countless Jiang Xuans, if they can all create a system...

Even if the time is very short, as long as enough systems are created, as long as he can become the source of a system in the heavens and myriad realms, then it can also make him reach an unsolvable level.

At that time, he may be able to step into the real heavens level.
