Kashyapa is far weaker than Su Nan, precisely because Su Nan is on the verge of fully refining a Law. The disparity in combat power between them is immense. In other words, Su Nan is only one step away from becoming the Great Emperor. He has refined ninety-nine percent of a Law, just one final step remains to master a complete Dao. Thus, he will ascend to the peak of the Divine Principle and achieve the Great Emperor! But this step requires the Mandate of Heaven. Whether it is a Law or a Dao, they are acquired from the current world, or rather, from the Heavenly Dao. If the Heavenly Dao does not consent, who can master a complete Dao? The emergence of the Great Emperor weakens the Heavenly Dao because it essentially loses one Dao. If this Great Emperor cultivates the Law of Light and speaks a word, darkness will shroud the heavens and earth. Even the Heavenly Dao can only watch helplessly, unable to intervene. Because the Great Emperor and the Heavenly Dao are of equal stature. This is also why only someone with the Mandate of Heaven can be called Emperor. Without acknowledgment from the Heavenly Dao, no matter how gifted you are, you cannot seize the final ’complete Law’ from the Heavenly Dao in this life. The Great Emperor is the end of the ’Dao.’ Those who master a Great Dao have reached the pinnacle of cultivation, their power is supreme. But why, in this world, are some Great Emperors stronger or weaker than others? The same end of the ’Dao’ can be reached, but mastering one Great Dao versus mastering two yields a qualitative change. There are three thousand Great Dao in the world; the more one comprehends and understands, the stronger one becomes! The Dao is boundless, the path limitless. There may be a limit to realms, but the steps forward are vast and infinite. Cultivation becomes increasingly difficult as one progresses. But for Su Changqing, it is quite the opposite. The Divine Body, Divine Spirit, Divine Image rely on resources and cultivation. Yet Divine Skill and Divine Principle require more comprehension. Comprehending heaven and earth, all beings, and oneself. Su Changqing might not be strong in other areas, but his comprehension... is terrifyingly strong! Once he steps into the Divine Principle Realm, his cultivation and realm will surge explosively. "The Divine Principle Realm, will be soon." Su Changqing slowly clenched his fist and murmured with a smile: "Next, I need only to convert all my mana, then I can breakthrough!" The hardest part of breaking through the Divine Skill Realm is truly understanding one’s own ’path.’ But Su Changqing had already understood and confirmed his path in the Divine Spirit Realm. That path is the ’Heavenly Dao!’ Now, he only needs to convert the spiritual power within his body to mana, and he can quickly breakthrough. However, this step is extremely difficult for him, containing colorful spiritual power within. He needs a vast amount of resources to transform the colorful spiritual power. And these resources, Su Changqing has some ideas in mind. Su Changqing gazed into the distant sky, murmuring to himself, Su Changqing sat at the cliffside, isolating himself to stabilize his cultivation. But unknowingly, after the fate of the Separation Platform ended, the world was in tumult, with many significant events occurring. The first of these is the complete emergence of the Forbidden Zone! The world’s fate was re-divided, the shackles confining the Forbidden Zone shattered. Updates are released by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩 Darkness surged across the continent, sinister laughter echoed through the heavens and earth. And on the first day of the Forbidden Zone beings breaking free, it brought calamity of blood and fire to the continent! "Kekeke! After endless years of confinement, we can finally feast!" "Hahaha, so much succulent flesh, it’s all mine now!" "The intoxicating terror, truly nostalgic..." A large number of demons emerged from the Forbidden Zone, rushing into villages, towns, even capitals! The shrill wails resonated across the continent, sorrowful cries echoed through heaven and earth. The sky was bloody, darkness pervasive. The Cangyan Continent seemed to become a purgatory in the world overnight. Major forces from the Five Domains dispatched numerous strong individuals to resist the emerging demons. But demons who had been confined for so long were like beasts let out of their cages, not easily driven back. The battle began, the Demon Race and Human Race reconciled and joined forces, temporarily holding back the Forbidden Zone’s onslaught. But everyone understands that this is merely the calm before the storm. Whether cultivators of the continent or demons of the Forbidden Zone. They are all waiting for the opportunity to strike. At this moment, within the Chaotic Forbidden Area. Amir returned satisfied, covered in blood, back to the Forbidden Zone. "Master, when will we venture out again next?" Wu Xiu licked his lips, looking unsatisfied. The blood of living beings is not only a delicious delicacy for demons, but also rapidly augments cultivation. Now, with countless beings on the continent, many mortals, it is the time to indulge. "No rush, the main course is yet to come." Amir smiled sinisterly, saying: "Is the literary festival in Central State going to take place soon? I’ve heard that Su Changqing will be going then." Wu Xiu nodded at these words: "Indeed, there’s such an event." "Su Changqing is the personal disciple of the Confucian Immortal, now that the Holy Academy is in trouble, he should attend." "People from the Ten Countries across the Five Domains seem to have set their sights on Central State, sending many secretly." Amir laughed coldly at these words: "Those Human Race individuals will certainly go." "Su Changqing possesses the key to the Imperial Tomb, it is their only chance to force him to reveal himself." "With strong individuals from the continent gathering, such a great opportunity, how could we miss it?" Now everyone in the continent knows, Su Changqing has a close relationship with the Holy Academy. Once the literary festival opens in half a month, if the court faction attacks, the Holy Academy won’t be able to compete. To help the Holy Academy win at the festival, Su Changqing must be present. Otherwise, no one in the Holy Academy is a match for Mu Yun, who has entered the Dao with dual arts. But once Su Changqing arrives, the continent’s cultivators, who have already set a trap, will not let him leave easily.
