The Heavenly Dao is very powerful, there’s no doubt about that.

As for exactly how powerful, even Li Chen can’t guess.

But from certain aspects, Li Chen could glean a thing or two.

Mingmeng was obviously a Palm Realm powerhouse who had embarked on her own path. Such a level of powerhouse, even a Daoist Lord, could be easily crushed by her.

And the Heavenly Dao was evidently a notch higher than Mingmeng.

The Supreme of the Supreme Asura Realm is the master of the Heavenly Dao, and the other Six Realms will clearly also produce their own masters.

Among these Seven Realms, the Supreme is evidently the most powerful existence.

Li Chen even speculated that the Supreme Heavenly Dao before him might be the most powerful Supreme in history.

Because the Heavenly Dao was born before the other Six Realms had new masters of the Heavenly Dao, at that time, he could even steal the Power of the Heavenly Dao from the other Six Realms to use as his computational power.

Yet thinking about such a formidable existence, in the future, being reduced to just a wisp of residual soul sealed in an unknown starry sky, made Li Chen feel a chill.

What kind of terrifying enemies could drive the Supreme to such a tragic state in battle?

At first, Li Chen thought the enemy was only the World-Destroying Beast, but now it seemed that even more powerful and terrifying enemies existed.

Li Chen wanted to ask something more, but at this moment, he saw the Heavenly Dao’s expression change slightly.

"It’s coming."

Looking around, the Heavenly Dao suddenly opened his mouth slowly and said, "Little one, remember my words, practice well, and become stronger."

The next moment, before Li Chen could speak, he felt everything around him start to move.

Unlike before, this time it wasn’t Li Chen who moved, but this world really began to act on its own.

After saying the last words to Li Chen, Li Chen saw clearly that the Heavenly Dao’s expression became indifferent, as if an invisible force began to dominate everything here.

Li Chen watched as the Heavenly Dao stood up as if he hadn’t seen him at all and slowly walked towards the small courtyard.

Of course, although the Heavenly Dao’s movements weren’t fast, the whole process seemed to be accelerated countless times.

Li Chen saw the joy on everyone’s face, including Mingmeng, and even Guangming, who at some point returned to the courtyard.

And this time, in the process accelerated countless times, he was absent.

Although he was still there, everything around him, everyone, seemed oblivious to him, as if they hadn’t noticed his existence at all.

The next moment, a terrifying rumble came from the sky.

Li Chen suddenly looked up, and saw that the entire sky seemed to be torn apart.

A terrifying giant hand, covering the sky and the sun, descended from above.

Thus, the war began abruptly.

Afterward, Li Chen saw one genius after another achieving supreme power. Including Mingmeng, these powerhouses shot into the sky, fighting fiercely with the unknown entity.

Even Li Chen could only see that among the enemies fighting these powerhouses, there faintly lingered the aura of the World-Destroying Beast.

And the World-Destroying Beast also continued to devour everything in the Starry Universe during the battle with these powerhouses. Through devouring, it grew stronger day by day.

To the point where, in the end, its power could completely suppress some Palm Realm powerhouses.

It transformed into countless forms, and these forms, like its main body, possessed the talent of devouring.

With each devouring, these forms grew increasingly powerful, engaging in the fiercest battles with the top powerhouses of the Seven Realms.

A bloody rain fell from the sky, and chaos spread throughout the Seven Realms, frightening everyone with scenes of apocalyptic disaster.

And at this moment, the Heavenly Dao also took action.

He rushed into the depths of the Starry Universe, and even the countless forms of the World-Destroying Beast were no match for him.

His power surpassed Li Chen’s imagination.

With just one move, the Heavenly Dao wiped out countless forms of the World-Destroying Beast and eventually charged toward the deepest part of the Starry Universe, only to encounter an unknown.

That journey never saw his return.

No one knew how much time had passed, but Li Chen estimated it had been many years later when the Heavenly Dao returned, with exhaustion written on his face and covered in terrifying wounds.

No one knew what the Heavenly Dao had encountered, nor what he had experienced or faced.

But this time upon his return, the Heavenly Dao was no longer the same.

By this time, the Seven Realms’ civilization had fallen into a disadvantage in the war with the World-Destroying Beast. The entire Starry Sky was filled with powerful beings occupied by the countless forms of the World-Destroying Beast and the Doomsday Beast Soul.

The Heavenly Dao met the World-Destroying Beast with the Heart of Heaven amidst the starry sky. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

This was the final battle.

Before this, several realms among the Seven Realms had already been fragmented and shattered by the long and terrifying war.

With his back to all beings, the Heavenly Dao spoke softly to the girl beside him, "Tian Yi, be optimistic. People cannot choose their lives, but they can choose their attitude toward living."

"Go and start a new life. In this life, it’s my regret for you."

Saying this, the Heavenly Dao sent the now-dim Heart of Heaven away from the starry sky, leaving him alone to face the dark starry sky.

No one knew the extent of the Heavenly Dao’s power, but it was certain that even after its recent birth and long-term devouring, the World-Destroying Beast wasn’t his match.

Yet during the years of the Heavenly Dao’s disappearance, nobody knew what he had encountered, nor what had wounded him to that extent.

At this time, what he had to face seemed not only the World-Destroying Beast, which had pushed the Seven Realms to a dead end, but also the unknown entity.

In the dark starry sky, there seemed to be a giant mouth capable of devouring everything, ready to swallow the strongest, most splendid existence of this Starry Universe in one bite.

Around the Heavenly Dao, countless ancient runes suddenly lit up.

The runes were incomparably splendid, illuminating the entire dark Starry Universe in an instant, shedding light on the last path for the powerhouses of the Seven Realms.

"Take them and escape," echoed the Heavenly Dao’s voice, unsure of who it was meant for.

Yet Li Chen saw four powerhouses exuding terrifying auras move an entire Great Realm with Great Divine Power, forcibly taking it away to the remote depths of the starry sky.

Between Heaven and Earth, only the Heavenly Dao and the unknown enemy remained...and Li Chen, whose body had become unreal without him knowing.

In Li Chen’s eyes, the entire world, the starry sky, also shook at this moment.

At this time, Li Chen saw the Heavenly Dao charge into the depths of darkness.

And beside his ear, came a voice so faint it was nearly inaudible: "Beware...of his return!"

The next moment, accompanied by a tremendous earth-shattering boom, the entire world collapsed abruptly.

On an ancient boat, Li Chen slowly opened his eyes, awakening from the mist.
