#990 - Planning the Way of Heaven, the Cause of the Great Disaster

The Celestial Worthy of Morality and the Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure were completely stunned by his heaven-defying remarks.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven's plan to destroy all living beings and transform into the Heavenly Dao actually involved killing everyone in the world except for them, and even reshaping the world to become the Heavenly Dao!

Reshaping the world also meant destroying it first.

Even if some gods and living beings weren't refined and managed to escape, they would still die when the world was destroyed!

"Jade Clarity, aren't you being a bit too extreme?"

The Celestial Worthy of Morality's eyelids twitched.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven retorted, "The three of us have been Celestial Worthies since the beginning of time, and the most powerful ones at that. After so many years, we've long since glimpsed the end of this world. Don't you want to possess even greater power?"

These words made the two of them somewhat tempted.

Who wouldn't want greater power? But if it came at the cost of killing all living beings, even if they obtained it, they wouldn't feel at ease, would they?

The Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure stroked the Immortal Slaughtering Sword in his hand, pondered for a long time, and then raised his head to ask, "Is there no other way? Perhaps we can gather the strength of everyone in the world to fight together..."

The Primeval Lord of Heaven coldly snorted, "The strength of that heaven-supporting giant hand has definitely surpassed the realm of Celestial Worthies. At the very least, it's a terrifying existence on the same level as the Heavenly Dao. Such a guy can't be defeated with numbers. I'm sure you all know this in your hearts. Don't deceive yourselves. This is the only feasible solution!"

The Celestial Worthy of Morality said with insufficient confidence, "Perhaps some geniuses will emerge in the future who can reach or even surpass us..."

Upon hearing this, the Primeval Lord of Heaven couldn't help but laugh loudly, "Supreme Clarity, what are you thinking? The three of us possess the most outstanding aptitudes in this world. We were born from the primordial purple energy at the beginning of time. Now that the world has finished developing, the primordial purple energy is becoming increasingly scarce. Even we have difficulty collecting it. How could there be geniuses who surpass us?"

The Celestial Worthy of Morality and the Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure fell silent.

What the Primeval Lord of Heaven said made sense.

As this world became more mature, the primordial purple energy became increasingly scarce, and it was indeed unlikely that geniuses surpassing them would appear.

"It seems... this is the only way!"

The Celestial Worthy of Morality sighed deeply, considering himself persuaded by the Primeval Lord of Heaven.

"Since we're planning for the Heavenly Dao, we can't be careless. A single mistake could invite disaster. Although the three of us have cultivated the divine ability to avoid the Three Disasters and Six Calamities, we still can't be careless. We can't be impatient. If we're going to do it, we must strive to wipe everything out in one fell swoop..."

The Primeval Lord of Heaven revealed a smile.

The three of them gathered together and began to carefully plan.

Later, the great calamity that shook the entire God Realm began to brew from this moment, and the specific reason was only known to the Three Pure Ones.

...

"Back then, it was because of your momentary softheartedness that many gods and Celestial Worthies escaped, dragging things out until today. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many problems!"

The Primeval Lord of Heaven stared at the severed finger above his head, his expression somewhat unsightly.

The strength of the three of them was now fully capable of suppressing this finger.

But these strange insects were shadows that the three of them could never erase from their hearts.

Over the years, the three of them had captured many strange insects, but they were unable to completely eliminate them. These strange insects were transformed from the blood of that heaven-supporting giant hand and possessed various strange abilities, even beginning to devour realms.

This ability made the Three Pure Ones feel terrified.

As expected, their guess from back then was correct. The master of that heaven-supporting giant hand was likely targeting this world itself.

"I think that this matter doesn't necessarily have to be borne by the three of us!"

The Celestial Worthy of Morality suddenly said.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven and the Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure immediately turned their heads to look, "What do you mean?"

The Celestial Worthy of Morality narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Didn't that mysterious Qingyun Daoist say that he was our elder brother, even born before us? His strength is so terrifying that even I can't contend with him. This kind of strength might even be close to the Heavenly Dao. With his strength, he could have stopped us back then, but he never showed himself. Could there be some secrets involved?"

Qingyun Daoist?

The Primeval Lord of Heaven and the Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure were both stunned, only then recalling the figure that the Celestial Worthy of Morality had mentioned before.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven said in a deep voice.

The Celestial Worthy of Morality and the Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure exchanged glances and nodded.

That was the truth.

"Now we don't need to think too much. Let's just do our own thing. Being strong ourselves is true strength. Since that Qingyun Daoist doesn't want to interfere, then let him be. We'll save this world ourselves. Why should we borrow the hands of others!"

The Primeval Lord of Heaven coldly snorted.

The Celestial Worthy of Morality sighed, "It's fortunate that he's not our enemy. That's the best news. If an existence of this level had the intention to stop us, our plans from back then would never have succeeded!"

The Primeval Lord of Heaven narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his head to look at the severed finger in mid-air, not knowing what he was thinking, and then said faintly, "I now suspect that the reason you failed to capture Zhunti this time was because that Qingyun Daoist secretly took action!"

"What!"

The Celestial Worthy of Morality was immediately shocked, then frowned and revealed a look of horror, "Now that you mention it, that's really possible! I clearly calculated that Zhunti was hiding in that divine palace, so I set up a great formation to seal it off. With Zhunti's strength, it was impossible for him to escape silently, but the fact is that he really disappeared inexplicably. Besides that Qingyun Daoist, I really can't think of any other reason!"

"This Qingyun Daoist first rescued that monkey, and now he's rescued Zhunti. What exactly is he trying to do? If he really wants to stop us from transforming into the Dao, why is he only starting to take action now?"

The Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure found it a little difficult to understand.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven was silent for a moment before slowly shaking his head, "No matter what he's trying to do, as long as he doesn't disrupt our final plan, there's no problem. Now there should be enough gods and Celestial Worthies in the cauldron. Supreme Clarity, there's no need to go out and look for other gods and Celestial Worthies. Let's focus on refining all the gods and Celestial Worthies first. If it's not enough, the three of us will join forces to go out and search again!"
