Forging a new Dao. This was an absolute innovation, and the handsome man understood the profound implications of that fact deeply.

It meant that Ye Chen’s Dao had transcended this world; it was not something that could have been born within this realm. It equally signified that no Dao within this world could ever suppress such a Dao.

Since antiquity, all existing Daos were created by this world, much like the nine fundamental energy elements that constitute this reality—Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Light, Dark, Wind, and Thunder—were fixed, the initial components forming the very fabric of existence. Any Dao comprehended by anyone was already present in this world; they had merely manifested its understanding.

But the Dao that Ye Chen innovated was entirely new, absent from this world, transcending both the Ancient World and the Eight Great Worlds. No one knew how powerful this Dao might become.

It was like an unknown treasure chest brimming with infinite potential. Therefore, after his shock subsided, the handsome man immediately closed the lid of the silver-white coffin again, as if intending to inter himself within it.

Then, the entire coffin transformed into a vessel, swiftly piercing the void and rushing towards the weakest barrier of the Sky World. “The beings from the other seven Great Worlds must have sensed it.

I must get ahead of them, kill this person first, and then seize the 【Dao】, taking possession of his Dao. I must know what kind of Dao this truly is!” Tumultuous, boiling thoughts surged within the handsome man.

“If we are to break through this world and defeat the Ancient World, only power that this world does not possess stands a chance. This is the only path to transcendence!” Whoosh!

The silver-white coffin streaked across the sky like a whistling meteor, trailing a long, silver tail. Simultaneously, from two other colossal sky-castles in the Sky World, two other entities flew out: one was an ancient, deep-blue spaceship, and the other was an antique couch upon which a person reclined sideways, propping their chin with a hand, looking down upon the entire realm.

※ ※ ※ ※ The Heart Realm. The Longchuan Mountain Range spanned thousands of miles, characterized by towering, strange peaks.

As far as the eye could see, the mountains were covered in dense forest, with sheer cliffs cut as if by a blade. A thick mist permeated the mountains, obscuring strangely shaped rocks.

At the apex of the central, heaven-piercing peak stood a magnificent palace, built of black tiles, black doors, and black lintels—everything was obsidian black. Yet, within this palace rested a throne as crystalline as ice and snow.

Upon it sat a girl dressed in white, appearing no older than seven or eight, with a dainty frame, an exquisitely cute face, and luminous, intelligent eyes. A smile of serene beauty, capable of overturning empires, graced her features.

Despite her youthful appearance, she carried an indescribable aura of maturity. She sat quietly on the throne, gazing up at the distant sky.

Suddenly, a flicker of shock crossed her eyes. “Such an unfamiliar aura.

How is this power possible? Could I have sensed it incorrectly?” “My Queen, what troubles you?” Beneath her throne stood her most favored male consort, possessing a handsome yet pale countenance.

His thick, dark eyebrows were sharp as flying daggers, and his pupils, black and sinister, held a perpetual, blade-like smile on his lips. The white-clad girl frowned slightly, murmuring, “There seems to be new activity in the Ancient World.

I just felt an unusual power, like… like a type of Dao.” “Dao?” “Yes, a Dao I have never seen before. That bizarre and wicked aura—I could never mistake it.” “How could there be a Dao that you haven’t seen?” “Of course, there is.” “Oh?” “A brand-new Dao.

That, I have not seen.” The handsome man fell silent. The white-clad girl’s eyes suddenly flashed with insight.

“The Coffin Supreme of the Sky World has torn through the spatial barrier and headed toward the Ancient World.” “What?” The handsome man started, crying out in surprise, “Isn’t he afraid of being suppressed by the Origin World Power of the Ancient World? The Ancient World’s origin power will only enter its slumber period in about one million years.

Why is he in such a rush?” “You don’t understand.” The white-clad girl tilted her head back to look at the sky outside. “He must have felt it too—a new Dao has been born.

When you reach the realm of World Supremacy, you will understand. To touch the higher realms, one must innovate.

Merely comprehending what already exists will never allow one to take that final step…” “That step?” “The step the Ancient Gods took…” ※※ ※ ※ 【The Burial Ground of the Ancient World】 In the silver-white space, Ye Chen’s body floated suspended in mid-air. A boiling black qi erupted from him, turning even his flowing long hair black as ink.

His skin, however, was unnervingly fair, and his handsome features exuded an ineffable sense of wickedness and coldness. Centered on his body, a black light spread outward, instantly transforming the entire silver-white space into absolute blackness.

His body became the only source of light in this void. Darkness is always perceived as destruction.

“The Dao of Darkness…” Enlightenment flashed in Ye Chen’s pitch-black pupils. He extended a hand, and the surrounding black space rapidly expanded, shattered, and then reformed, becoming even more solidified.

“I wonder which is stronger, my Dao or the Great Dao of Origin…” A slight curve formed on Ye Chen’s lips. He slowly settled cross-legged, grasping his palms.

The eight remaining Blood Crystals from his inner world swiftly floated out and hovered before him. “Darkness!” As Ye Chen clenched his hands, the brilliant, crimson blood crystals were immediately covered by creeping dark light, completely enveloped, and began shrinking at a visibly discernible rate.

As the eight blood crystals diminished simultaneously, Ye Chen’s body swelled like a balloon, injected with a surge of immense power that rapidly catalyzed his flesh, blood, bones, and essence, forcing a terrifyingly fast metamorphosis. “Pushing for Heaven-Defying in one breath.” Determination burned in Ye Chen’s eyes.

If he failed this time, finding such abundant energy again might take tens of thousands of years, or even longer. As Ye Chen’s vital energies rapidly increased, the spatial barrier of the Ancient World was suddenly torn open by a beam of silver-white light shooting straight up, and an overwhelmingly powerful, domineering aura instantly permeated the entire realm.

At that moment, every expert in the Ancient World who had reached the Void Heaven Realm felt this presence that made their very souls tremble. It was as if they were ants facing a colossal giant.

The feeling of being utterly fragile, easily crushed, rose powerfully in everyone’s heart. Even Di Zangchuan and Ling, who were fighting inside the Earth Blood Beast, along with the still-living Jinsi, felt this power.

One by one, their bodies convulsed, and they stared upward in terror. But all they could see was the blood-red flesh above.

“Is it… is a World Supremacy expert from another world unafraid of the Ancient World’s suppression, coming here in person?” “How can a World Supremacy expert be so audacious?” Everyone’s hearts trembled. The appearance of any World Supremacy could overturn the Ancient World.

Even ten thousand peak Heaven-Defying Realm experts would be as easily destroyed as ants before a World Supremacy. This was absolute suppression.

Within the broken spatial currents, a silver-white coffin slowly drifted out. Silver light flowed across its surface, and an overwhelming aura erupted from it, imbued with formidable, peerless world power.

The instant this silver-white coffin entered the Ancient World, the fundamental power of the Ancient World shuddered violently, sweeping out like a torrential storm, as if attempting to crush the coffin into dust. The silver-white coffin abruptly radiated ten thousand rays of silver light, and a mighty tide of world power surged forth from within, firmly shielding the coffin, contending against the world power of the Ancient World.

While resisting, the silver-white coffin’s speed did not diminish in the slightest; it instantly appeared above the Burial Ground. Twisted spatial ripples surrounded the coffin, frantically squeezing it, while the coffin simultaneously unleashed silver-white world power that clashed against this transparent world power.

“This is the place.” A cold snort echoed from within the silver-white coffin. A sharp stream of world power radiated outward from its center, encompassing the entire Burial Ground.

“There are envoys from the Heart Realm here too. Hmph, courting death.

Wait, that is the Bone of the Great Dao. To have that here alone makes this trip worthwhile.” The handsome man inside the silver-white coffin sneered.

While enduring the suppression from the Ancient World’s power, he extended an energy ripple, which hurtled toward the interior of the Earth Blood Beast. Di Zangchuan and Ling inside the Earth Blood Beast, along with Jinsi and the beast’s main body, were greatly alarmed.

Before they could react, the sturdy body of the Earth Blood Beast was blasted into ash by this single thread of energy. The Earth Blood Beast’s core and Jinsi’s body within were annihilated almost instantly.

Ling attempted to evade, but his body was instantly gripped by a powerful binding force and violently pulled toward the silver-white coffin. As he neared the gleaming silver vessel, he saw the lid snap open, and his body tumbled inside before the lid slammed shut again.

As for Di Zangchuan, after witnessing the swift disintegration of the bloody mass above, his heart seized with terror. He hurriedly activated the Earth Shield and pushed his own power to the extreme, fleeing frantically into the distance.

The Spring of Earth poured power into him unstintingly, causing his body to rapidly crumble and dissolve against that single ripple of energy, only to be instantly regenerated, then crumble and dissolve again, and continue this cycle of collapse and rebirth. He repeated this process until he had escaped a hundred miles away.

The Earth Shield protecting him was shattered and pulverized in a single blow by that energy ripple. “Oh?” A note of surprise sounded from within the silver-white coffin, followed by a cold snort.

“Attempting to flee right under my nose? Insolence!” An energy bolt shot violently from the silver-white coffin, striking Di Zangchuan.
