"From which Immortal Domain did the Heavenly Dao's Grand Sound originate?"
"Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain, it's the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain's Emperor Road! A Prodigy who created his own Dao has appeared!"
"Who on earth is it? To be such a Prodigy, capable of forging his own path in this era of great contention, where a hundred boats strive to flow?"
"If such a figure were placed in previous eras, he would definitely have the potential for Immortal Ascension!"
"Alas, that Prodigy was feared by the Heavenly Dao, and his path to Dao Proving was severed. His future path will be cut off."
"It seems the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain indeed produced a formidable individual, but it's also quite tragic. An awe-inspiring Prodigy who once shone across the Universe will now fade into obscurity."
Throughout the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, numerous ancient powerhouses and living fossils were awakened.
Upon hearing that Grand Sound of the Dao, their expressions also revealed shock.
Many ancient existences collectively cast their gazes towards the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain.
How long had it been since the will of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain manifested?
The last time was during the invasion of the Foreign Lands and the collapse of the Immortal Court.
To be able to alarm the will of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, it must be an extraordinary event.
But the problem was, what was alarming the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain now?
It wasn't a Foreign Land invasion, nor an anomaly in the Forbidden Zone, nor the churning of the Boundary Sea.
It was merely because of one person.
From this, it was clear that in the eyes of the Immortal Domain's will,
that person's threat level was comparable to major events like a Foreign Land invasion!
Just as the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain was in an uproar,
over in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain,
above the Jun Family Ancestral Shrine,
Eighth Ancestor Jun Tianming, along with Eighteenth Ancestor, Sixteenth Ancestor, and others, all had solemn expressions, their eyes interweaving with coldness and fury.
"Damn that old thieving Heaven! Does it really think our Jun Family wouldn't dare to make a move?!" Sixteenth Ancestor cursed, his eyes blazing with anger.
He had the appearance of a ten-year-old child, but his Internal Energy surged, as if about to erupt uncontrollably.
For Sixteenth Ancestor, with his Cultivation and state of mind, to lose composure like this, it showed he was truly enraged.
"What's the use of saying all this now? It's unnecessary." Eighteenth Ancestor shook his head slightly.
"Back then, even when our Jun Family split, we were still close to succeeding. In the end, wasn't it still that bastard Immortal Domain's will…" Sixteenth Ancestor couldn't help but swear.
Long ago, the Jun Family wanted to replace the Supreme Immortal Court and become the Dominator of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
But in the end, they failed.
The world didn't know the reason.
Only the Jun Family themselves knew.
Besides the Family's split and the Supreme Immortal Court's obstruction, there was also the influence of the Immortal Domain's will.
Otherwise, a mere collapsed Supreme Immortal Court would not have been able to curb the Jun family's ambition.
"Forget it, don't mention past events. In this era of great contention, are we afraid our Jun Family won't have a chance?"
"What we need to focus on now is Xiaoyao's Dao Proving." Jun Tianming said.
"Indeed, even if Xiaoyao's talent is prodigious, with this restriction, it will still be somewhat of an obstacle for him." Eighteenth Ancestor said.
He had watched Jun Xiaoyao grow up and already had a grandfather-grandson affection for him.
"Actually, it doesn't matter. If he can't prove the Dao in the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, then he can go to the Foreign Lands, to the Boundary Sea, or even to the Vast Expanse beyond the Universe. Are we afraid he won't be able to prove the Dao?" Jun Tianming said with imposing dominance.
If it were an ordinary Prodigy, being restricted like this would mean almost no hope of Dao Proving.
But for the Jun Family, they had the confidence and the ability to let Jun Xiaoyao prove the Dao in a more distant place.
"Haha, exactly! Once Xiaoyao proves the Dao and becomes an Emperor, the Immortal Domain's will won't be able to do anything to him. If Xiaoyao can achieve Immortal Ascension, then he can overturn this Heaven and Earth and reorganize the order of Heaven and Earth!" Sixteenth Ancestor laughed heartily.
"I, on the other hand, believe that with Xiaoyao's stubborn personality, he would definitely not be willing to escape, but would choose to continue proving the Dao in the Immortal Domain."
"Then it's up to his own choice, let him be." Jun Tianming said.
"I believe Xiaoyao will definitely succeed. When he proves the Dao and achieves Immortal Ascension, he will defy this old thieving Heaven!" Sixteenth Ancestor laughed.
Rumble!
At this moment, above the Jun Family, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled.
It was as if their conversation had touched upon some taboo.
"Heh… just wait…" Jun Tianming and the others merely looked up at the sky and sneered, remaining silent.
The Jun Family had been dormant for a long time, waiting for an opportunity.
And Jun Xiaoyao was the key!
On the Desolate Heaven Battlefield, at the Heavenly Dao Arena.
All the Prodigies were stunned, not expecting such a 360-degree turn of events.
One moment, the heavenly dao crown was bestowed, and if worn, it destined one to become an Emperor.
But the next moment, it fell from Heaven to Hell; Jun Xiaoyao was actually unable to prove the Dao.
"Did you hear? That Heavenly Dao Sound said that the Jun Family Divine Child walked his own path."
"Hiss… No wonder the Jun Family Divine Child is such a Prodigy; he's already taken that step."
"What a Prodigy, but this also means that the Jun Family Divine Child can no longer prove the Dao or Breakthrough."
"Does that mean the Jun Family Divine Child can only Cultivate to the Quasi-Emperor level at most, and cannot truly become a Dao Proving Great Emperor?"
"Although a Quasi-Emperor is already very strong, in this era of great contention, it's still not enough."
Many Prodigies were whispering among themselves.
"How could this be?" Jiang Shengyi and the others' expressions changed; they hadn't expected this step.
On the other hand, Ji Qingyi, who was watching from the side, had an expression that seemed to say, "As expected."
"Previously, when Jun Xiaoyao was in the Lower Realm, he forged his own path. This is destined to be a Heaven-Defying path, and the Heavens will not allow this path to exist."
"Now that the Heavenly Sound has spoken and imposed a restriction, Jun Xiaoyao will find it difficult to Breakthrough, and thus poses no threat to the Human Immortal Sect's successor." Ji Qingyi murmured in her heart.
But strangely, she felt no joy; a thoughtful look appeared in her pupils.
Eternal Calamity Heavenly Maiden also murmured in her heart: "Indeed, the Fate Nullifier is an existence even the Heavenly Dao fears, and it will never allow him to prove the Dao."
At this moment, among the crowd, there was no mockery or sneering towards Jun Xiaoyao.
There was only lament and regret.
He was clearly a Prodigy who shook the past and present, worthy of being recorded in history.
Now, however, his future path was forcibly restricted.
The most crucial point was that the Immortal Domain's will only spoke after the heavenly dao crown had condensed.
This was simply a killing blow to the heart.
Any other Prodigy would definitely not be able to withstand such a disparity, and their Dao Heart would tremble.
Even Supreme Du Tuo sighed, saying it was truly a pity.
If the already prodigious Jun Xiaoyao were to also undergo the Fusion of the heavenly dao crown, his talent and strength would undoubtedly be the most prodigious existence of all time, bar none!
Everyone looked at Jun Xiaoyao.
To their surprise, Jun Xiaoyao's expression was very calm.
So calm that there wasn't a single ripple.
"Is the Jun Family Divine Child calm on the outside but collapsing on the inside?" Some people wondered suspiciously.
"Heh heh…"
Finally, Jun Xiaoyao smiled.
This smile was a cold one, a sneer towards the Heavens.
"My Jun Family ancestor, Emperor Qitian, once said, 'Heavenly Dao's anointment is but a burden. My body shall prove the Dao, and through myriad tribulations, I shall achieve Immortal Ascension.' "
"If I, Jun Xiaoyao, wish to achieve Immortal Ascension, when have I ever needed the Heavenly Dao's approval?"
Jun Xiaoyao was a Transmigrator, with peerless talent and a System by his side.
Since his emergence, he had swept through everything, never suffering a single defeat.
His Prodigy-like demeanor overshadowed all of history.
In front of him, what was Heaven? Did it even have the right to obstruct his path?
Upon hearing these words, the expressions of all the Prodigies present were incredibly varied.
A young generation daring to defy the Heavens, perhaps only Jun Xiaoyao.
"Heaven, do you want to prove that I can't defeat you? Then why don't we make a wager."
Jun Xiaoyao looked up, gazing at the vast starry sky, his tone calm, yet erupting with a world-shaking sound.
"When this Divine Child proves the Dao and achieves Immortal Ascension, I will surely make the Heavenly Dao perish and reshape the order of Heaven and Earth!"
As these words fell, the entire Universe trembled!
