Chapter 1050: The Will of Heaven and Earth

Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Chengxuan, embodying his Dao, merged his essence into the cosmos, and in an instant, a strange visual realm appeared in his mind’s eye, as if he had been pulled into a bizarre world.

Within this realm, Jiang Chengxuan felt countless gazes fixated on him, the surrounding vista bursting with flowing lights and dazzling, magical colors.

Looking up, Jiang Chengxuan saw nothing but swirling currents of energy, as if someone had overturned an infinite vat of dye over the Floodgate Realm. He understood that this was the world of Dao or, more precisely, the inner workings of the world’s will.

The world’s will could manifest in any form, its appearance before him depending entirely on how he perceived it. At this moment, as Jiang Chengxuan merged his Dao with the cosmos to seize its essence, what he observed was a fusion of countless Daos.

As his Dao penetrated this world, the surrounding forces of Dao began to grow turbulent. The colors around him twisted, and suddenly, a giant face of rage loomed before him.

It appeared like a wrathful deity, a colossal figure clad in heavy armor, wielding the chaotic power of numerous rules, unrelentingly slamming towards Jiang Chengxuan.

As it struck, a terrifying presence crushed down from the void—the will of heaven and earth imposing its might on the beings of this realm.

Fortunately, Jiang Chengxuan was well-prepared for this confrontation. His Dao rules of Samsara and Life and Death surged forth, cloaking him, as he countered the manifestation of the world’s will.

In the moment of his counterattack, high above in the heavens, a mysterious rune appeared, emitting a profound light that shone upon Jiang Chengxuan’s head, slowly drawing him upwards.

This development brought a spark of joy to Jiang Chengxuan. He knew that the rules of this world had recognized his Dao, bestowing upon him its mark. As long as he could merge with this mark successfully, his Dao would officially become a part of the cosmic Dao.

However, all this was predicated on his ability to withstand the opposition of the world’s will until the arrival of the mark.

Boom!

Confronting the avatar of the world’s will, Jiang Chengxuan wielded the power of his three great Daos to defend himself. Each collision between them was a pure clash of rules.

Jiang Chengxuan’s mastery of his Dao rules, each honed to the pinnacle of high-level, was sufficient to hold its ground against the fusion of countless rules.

As the world’s will exerted its fierce suppression, the mark of the world above was gradually drawn down. Bathed in the light of this beckoning, Jiang Chengxuan fought more vigorously, his body and Dao blending, battling the manifestation of the world’s will to its peak.

The entire realm of Dao was thoroughly disrupted by their struggle, resembling a colorful black hole.

As time passed, Jiang Chengxuan remained unyielding, the cosmic mark almost within reach. The realm of Mahayana was now just a step away.

But at that moment, a drastic change occurred—the world’s will could no longer remain idle.

The giant figure of the Dao suddenly vanished into the void, leaving behind emptiness. Instantly, all the surrounding forces of Dao crazily surged towards that void.

“Roar!”

A terrifying aura erupted, and an immense dragon’s head of vibrant colors suddenly roared out from it. The formidable nature of the world’s will was unmistakably displayed at this moment.

Even someone as resolute as Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but tremble inwardly, his expression turning grave. The oppressive force emanating from the dragon far exceeded the previous giant by more than tenfold, its ancient, vast, and ruthless presence embodying the world’s indifferent will that regards all beings as mere straws.

Typically, a cultivator’s breakthrough does not provoke such a violent extermination impulse from the world’s will. After all, all beings are the products of the world; even those ascending within the realm naturally integrate into it.

The world’s will of a plane like the Floodgate Realm lacks emotion or thought; its obstruction of a cultivator’s ascension is purely instinctive.

Only a cultivator like Jiang Chengxuan, who possesses multiple high-order Daos seeking breakthrough, could trigger such a strong innate reaction from the world’s will.

In an instant, the dragon of Dao mercilessly struck down, and Jiang Chengxuan deployed his Dao power in defense. Yet, this collision immediately caused fissures in his otherwise flawless Dao.

Shocked by the fierce resistance of the world’s will, Jiang Chengxuan realized the terrifying extent of its opposition.

But now, there was no turning back. If he could not endure until the arrival of the cosmic mark, only demise awaited him.

Faced with a life-and-death crisis, Jiang Chengxuan held nothing back, unleashing all his Dao powers, transforming into a colossal deity of Dao to strike back with a mighty punch.

The clash between them plunged the world into a moment of darkness. Amid the crackling sounds, Jiang Chengxuan’s Daos suffered further fractures. Clearly, even high-order Daos like Life and Death, Five Elements, and Samsara couldn’t withstand unscathed when pitted against the incarnation of the world’s collective Daos.

Yet at that critical juncture, Jiang Chengxuan felt no inclination to retreat. Only through a relentless fight could there be a chance for salvation.

A terrifying aura erupted completely in that moment, creating a storm of Daos that seemed poised to overturn the entire world. This upheaval, born from their conflict, was faintly perceived by other cultivators throughout the Floodgate Realm.

The world itself seemed inexplicably agitated.

Thunderous booms resonated over and over again!

In this battle, Jiang Chengxuan exhausted every ounce of his strength, his output surpassing even that of typical Great Dao Lords. However, he faced the suppression of the world’s will, and without the world’s mark’s approval, he couldn’t achieve true Dao fulfillment.

Time seemed to stretch indefinitely. Just as Jiang Chengxuan’s painstakingly cultivated Daos were on the brink of shattering completely, the guiding light above his head finally brought the world’s mark down, integrating it into his Dao body.

A profound, mysterious hum resounded, and Jiang Chengxuan’s aura, which was on the verge of dissipating, suddenly surged, now imbued with a distinctly new essence.

The world’s mark merged with his Daos of the Five Elements, Life and Death, and Samsara. In a single breath, it fully repaired his nearly shattered Daos.

The force of his Daos roared and then slowly dissolved into the cosmos. The once oppressive world now felt incredibly familiar to him.

The powers of Jiang Chengxuan’s three Daos exploded, spreading out and successfully integrating into the cosmic Daos of this realm. In an instant, they extended boundlessly, reaching Mahayana.
