Chapter 105: Revolt against the Heavens: The Heavenly Way crashes

As Zenith Heaven Emperor stood victorious over the defeated Heavenly Way, a sense of dissatisfaction lingered within him. He yearned to extract every ounce of potential from his fallen opponent, to exploit them to the fullest extent. With a firm resolve, he embarked on a new course of action, one that would further solidify his dominance.

Harnessing the power of the Heavenly Way's liquid metal body, Zenith Heaven Emperor transformed his World Destruction Weapon into a mighty hammer. The resonating energy crackled in the air as he grasped the weapon firmly, ready to shape his opponent's form according to his desires. Each swing of the hammer echoed with resounding force, symbolizing the forging of a new destiny.

Zenith Heaven Emperor's intentions went beyond mere destruction. Utilizing the body of his fallen opponent, he tapped into the essence of his Way of Eternal Life's Fool, Error, and Door Pathways. Through a meticulous process, he infused the power of these three pathways into the very structure of his opponent's former body.

With each stroke of the hammer, a magnificent castle began to take shape, rising from the remnants of the Heavenly Way's former self. It towered over the landscape, a testament to Zenith Heaven Emperor's audacity. The castle's architecture mirrored the intricate design of his opponent's liquid metal body, a fusion of strength, elegance, and the profound mysteries of his Way of Eternal Life.

With the completion of the castle, Zenith Heaven Emperor bestowed upon it the name it deserved, paying homage to the original castle from which it drew its inspiration. The Sefirah Castle has been created!

However, Zenith Heaven Emperor's ambitions did not end with the external manifestation of his victory. He knew that true power lay within, waiting to be harnessed and integrated into his very being. Employing his Heaven Devouring Battle Law, he unleashed a surge of Immortal Energy, consuming the Sefirah Castle and assimilating it into himself.

During the time the castle merged with Zenith Heaven Emperor's essence, a profound transformation took place. The Fool, Error, and Door Pathways combined with the castle, giving birth to something much greater. Their convergence created a new Path within his Way of Eternal Life, the Path of the Mysteries.

The Path of the Mysteries unleashed a cascade of energy that resonated with the very fabric of existence. It sprouted and flourished, channeling the immense potential hidden within the convergence of these powerful pathways. It became a wellspring of unparalleled knowledge, granting Zenith Heaven Emperor unprecedented insight and mastery over the realms.

The Sefirah Castle became the Beacon of Destiny, which served as a radiant focal point within Zenith Heaven Emperor's being. It's transformation into the Beacon of Destiny marked a momentous turning point for Zenith Heaven Emperor. Its radiant presence within him granted him a profound understanding of the workings of destiny, and merged his mastery and understanding of the Fate Scripture into one powerful force. With this newly acquired ability, Zenith Heaven Emperor not only had control over the thread of fate, but also the overarching concept of destiny itself.

However, the creation of this Sefirot also had consequences, much anticipated consequences!

The Heavenly Way finally collapsed, starting the era of Vying for the Ninth Heavenly Way!

However now the Fourth Heaven can awaken his true body and use his last remaining trump card. Due to Zenith Heaven Emperor already knowing what this last trump card is, due to the knowledge of his previous life, decides that he does not want more variables to appear and force the Fourth Heaven to use this.

To force out the Fourth Heaven, Zenith Heaven Emperor just needs to make him realize the imminent threat of someone transcending the way. Zenith Heaven Emperor plans to achieve this by breaking the law of the Heavenly Way in front of All Heavens and Myriad Realms, publicly showcasing that he is capable of breaking the laws of Heaven.

A few moments before, Heavenly Tribulation World, Soft Feather

With her tribulation behind her, Soft Feather emerged triumphant, radiating an aura of divine brilliance. Soft Feather stood before the masses, radiating a divine aura that captivated all who beheld her. The news of a new Sage reverberated across the realms, and the attention of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms converged upon her. As if a curtain had been lifted, a small screen materialized, granting a window into the momentous occasion. Countless eyes fixed upon the image, witnessing the resplendent display of Soft Feather's divinity show.

The next step unfolded with the creation of the Sage Seal!

In the blink of an eye, the characters started to coalesce, forming the magnificent Sage Seal.

Unexpectedly, in the very next moment, a tremendous explosion shook the Heavenly Way.

The Heavenly Way suddenly exploded!

Precisely at the critical moment when the Sage Seal was on the verge of materializing, the Heavenly Way vanished into thin air!

This sudden turn of events reverberated in the hearts of all cultivators across the vast expanse of All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Every gaze was fixed upon Soft Feather, who was in the midst of condensing the Sage Seal, and they were all astounded by the abrupt disappearance of the Heavenly Way!

A profound silence descended upon the entire realm, as if it had been swallowed by death itself.

Soft Feather stood there, speechless and bewildered by the unexpected turn of events.

My name is Soft Feather.

At this moment, I find myself in a state of complete panic...

Today, I finally heard the voice of my beloved, who informed me that I should transcend my tribulation now due to some incredible opportunity.

These two events are truly magnificent and represent the pinnacle of my life.

However, all of a sudden, a catastrophic disruption occurred within the Heavenly Way and it blew up.

What steps should I take from here? I am in desperate need of assistance.

"NOOOOOOOOOO!" The anguished cry reverberated through the air, carrying with it a sense of defeat and despair. Fat Ball's heart sank as he recognized the voice.

Hearing that sound, Ruler White commented with a hint of satisfaction, "So, he won too."

Fat Ball's mind reeled with disbelief. "No, impossible!" he screamed, his voice filled with a mix of anguish and denial.

Senior White and Fat Ball stood motionless, separated by a hundred meters.

"White ... I can't accept it... I can't accept disappearing like this," Fat Ball's voice stuttered.

Its body was dissolving into specks of light.

The collapse and dissipation of the Heavenly Way meant that even this ruler of the Nine Serenities could no longer exist.

"Well, I understand," Senior White responded.

He was the one who understood the liquid metal ball the most out of all. Fat Ball had gone to great lengths and employed various means to survive.

Unfortunately, the 'Heavenly Way' corresponding to Fat Ball had not given it more time.

'White, as expected, even in my last moments, I still wanted to kill you.'

"Farewell," Senior White softly said at the end.

He let Fat Ball disappear and with it his hatred towards him.

Fat Ball's figure grew smaller and gradually became transparent from within. It was like a piece of wood, on the verge of burning out, with a faint flame flickering in the wind and rain.

"Las...t..." Fat Ball struggled to utter with a strained voice.

Suddenly, it gathered all its remaining strength, transforming its entire body into a fist and propelled itself like a rocket towards the ethereal White.

In its final moments, Fat Ball had made the decision to land a punch on White's detestable face, to give him a taste of its fury.

Senior White stood still, unmoving, as if he intended to face Fat Ball's final blow head-on.

Whoosh~

The gust of wind caused by the punch blew Senior White's long hair, sending it cascading backward.

The fist made from Fat Ball's body crashed just an inch away from Senior White... and failed to advance any further.

In the next instant, the enormous fist dissipated like sand, scattering all over the ground.

The ruler of the Nine Serenities, Fat Ball, perished.

Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew, lifting the sand formed by Fat Ball's body into the air. In midair, the sand underwent further erosion and ultimately vanished without a trace.

Senior White stood silently in place for several minutes. Then, he took out a pair of sunglasses and coolly put them on. He lightly patted his trench coat and turned away, leaving the scene behind.
