NOVPUBThe essence of the Return-to-Void Realm lies in the Sun God Dharma Image replacing the physical body and merging into the heavens and earth, with the Sun God Dharma Image acting as the medium to fully control the power of the heavens and earth.
Once one steps into this realm, one fully possesses the might to transform the heavens and the earth and change the colors of mountains and rivers.
The Return-to-Void Great True Being has transcended the cognition of ordinary cultivators, but the source of all this is the power of the heavens and earth controlled by the Sun God Dharma Image.
Only when the essence of the Yang God is strong enough and pure enough can it forcibly plunder the heavens and earth with its own power.
In weaker worlds, the more power of the heavens and earth the Return-to-Void Great True Being can plunder, the stronger their own strength becomes.
Even because the power the Return-to-Void Great True Being holds in small worlds is too strong, most of the small worlds’ rules cannot accommodate the full display of their power, thus limiting the entry of Return-to-Void strong ones into small worlds.
The Secret Realm Square-Inch that now lies before us was created by the method of opening the heavens and splitting the earth, its essence already nearing that of a small world, and it is on this basis that Xu Hao is able to display his immensely powerful Wondrous Tao Divine Power.
Wondrous Tao Divine Power may not possess the unique characteristic of being one-of-a-kind in this world, but its strength is no less than that of the Earthly Destroyer Divine Power.
Under normal circumstances, faced with the absolute advantage of the opponent’s cultivation level, Shen Yuan could only choose to give way.
But... the Secret Realm Square-Inch is an exception.
The Return-to-Void Great True Being’s plundering of the power of the heavens and earth only occurs when the world is without an owner.
But the Secret Realm Square-Inch was created by Shen Yuan, and as the master of the Secret Realm, Shen Yuan has control over all of the heavens and earth within it, naturally including the power of the heavens and earth.
Even if a Return-to-Void Great True Being’s Yang God were pure, they would not have the capacity to contest control of the heavens and earth with the master of a Secret Realm.
With just a thought, the power of the heavens and earth that supported the Wondrous Tao Divine Power obeyed Shen Yuan’s will, returning to the heavens and the earth, leaving the Return-to-Void Great True Being without the support that they were most proud of.
A face full of madness became completely rigid at this moment, as Xu Hao’s eyes widened in disbelief, staring at Shen Yuan.
If Shen Yuan had defeated him with some powerful Wondrous Tao or even Earthly Destroyer Divine Power, Xu Hao might have been reluctant, but not so shocked.
In his eyes, it made complete sense for Shen Yuan, who once reached the Earth Immortal Realm, to have a powerful trump card.
But now, as the power of the heavens and earth was completely dispersed, the Wondrous Tao Divine Power’s Profound Realm Genesis had not even come down before it was forcefully destroyed from the foundation.
Even the Sun God Dharma Image, which had merged into the heavens and earth, seemed to be shackled by invisible locks at this moment, and Xu Hao was gradually losing control over his own Sun God Dharma Image.
All these changes originated from a sentence spoken by Shen Yuan, which seemed as casual as the drifting clouds and gentle breeze. no𝚟𝚙u𝚋.c𝚘m
"My power?"
Xu Hao subconsciously repeated Shen Yuan’s words, then the shock in those blood-red eyes could no longer be hidden.
"You are the creator of this Square-Inch Secret Realm!"
"Only thus could you, with your cultivation at the peak of Spirit Transmutation, forcibly plunder my control over the power of the heavens and earth, and even use it to counteract my Sun God Dharma Image with the power of the heavens and earth!"
Xu Hao felt as though his mind had exploded, and all the doubts he had about the Square-Inch Secret Realm finally found their answers at this moment.
"Although the Square-Inch Secret Realm is just a Secret Realm, its internal perfection is almost on par with a small world; there are few in the Primal Chaos Realm capable of creating such a Secret Realm, and you are one of them!
You control the Earthly Destroyer Divine Power Pot’s Heaven, you are unparalleled in the realm of space, and you are a top Earth Immortal of this era, fully qualified to create the Square-Inch Secret Realm."
"You have a close relationship with that Sun Deity from Ying Island, and behind that Deity stands the Donghua Shaoyang Emperor, which further proves your connection with the Donghua Shaoyang Emperor."
"I may not know much about the Fengdu Emperor, but the Supreme Taoist’s acquaintance with the kingdom of Hell is no secret from ten thousand years ago, so it’s only logical to know the Fengdu Emperor."
...
One by one, doubts were unraveled with the revelation of Shen Yuan’s identity as the master of the Square-Inch Secret Realm, pushing Xu Hao’s expression towards frenzy.
He began to realize that the entire Square-Inch Secret Realm, and even the trade between Xia Yunqiu and the Netherworld, were all part of a grand scheme laid out by Shen Yuan.
Whether it’s the 10 Great Grotto Heavens Sacred Lands or various sects and schools, the human Imperial Dynasty, or noble family clans, they are all but pawns in Shen Yuan’s hands.
A great terror suddenly surged in his heart, and Xu Hao, looking at Shen Yuan, who still seemed nonchalant, couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
The figure before him, with an air of a true immortal and Taoist, seemed to overlap again with that Supreme Prodigy who suppressed a realm ten thousand years ago.
Ten thousand years of Spirit Energy depletion had not diminished the Supreme Prodigy’s pride; he still stood at the pinnacle of this realm, overlooking all living beings with an unsurpassed demeanor.
Only at this moment did Xu Hao realize the gap between himself and Shen Yuan.
Even after retreating from the world for ten thousand years, he had not escaped the shadow of the Supreme Taoist.
"I’m not reconciled! I’m not reconciled!"
Hoarse roars erupted from Xu Hao as his Sun God Dharma Image, nearly swallowed by the heavens and earth above the sea of clouds, exploded violently.
Paying the price of the disintegration of his Sun God Dharma Image, streams of intense Yang God power surged out, forming an expanding Great Sun in the firmament, once again illuminating the Square-Inch Secret Realm.
Disregarding his Spirit Soul that had already shattered following the collapse of his Sun God Dharma Image, Xu Hao swung his spirit treasure flag like a great axe, slashing down towards Shen Yuan.
Wondrous Tao Divine Power Profound Realm Genesis evolved once more!
Since knowing that borrowing the power of the heavens and earth was futile, Xu Hao completely gave up on that power, using the most pure Mana and Yang God power to display his Divine Skills.
The world once again plunged into a sheer Turmoil of chaos, with only a slash that split through eternity cutting through the heavens and earth, separating the pure from the muddled.
