Chapter 3149: Chapter 3147: You are Shuhang, You are a Free Squirrel

The moment the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon returned, Father Goudan became irritable.

At some point in the past, Father Goudan’s temperament was the complete opposite of the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon. Back then, it was cold, indifferent, taciturn, and lacked empathy, a very qualified ruler of the Netherworld.

Until that year, the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon told Father Goudan that it was going to retire from the ‘Heavenly Dao seat.’

Father Goudan always thought that once the striped dragon left the Heavenly Dao seat, it, as the ruler of the Netherworld, would disappear, become ‘the past,’ and cease to exist completely.

But when it awoke, it found itself still alive, carefully preserved in a mysterious space in the main world—while the striped dragon had vanished without a trace.

At that moment, the previously cold Father Goudan was gone.

Later, gradually, Father Goudan began to take on the appearance of the striped dragon…

Perhaps deep inside, it always felt that the ‘Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon’ was already dead.

The legendary ‘return of the Heavenly Dao’ seemed to be so far out of reach.

But now.

The scene from its imagination, deemed ‘unattainable,’ suddenly appeared in front of it.

The Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon hopped around, appearing before Father Goudan with a cute bouncing posture.

Without giving anyone time to mentally prepare.

For some reason, Father Goudan suddenly couldn’t control its emotions and erupted in fury.

It wanted to burst out at the striped dragon, to vent all its pent-up emotions onto the other party!

Father Goudan manifested its real body, its dragon-clawed feet scraping against the ground, wishing it could immediately open a space gate and appear beside the striped dragon to kick it!

“Father Goudan, calm down! Control your emotions, don’t panic. Since your Heavenly Dao has already come back, there’s no rush to confront it later! For now, let it complete its mission of suppressing an ‘image.’ Afterward, you can do whatever you want to it. Right now, you have to consider the bigger picture!” the three-eyed young senior approached insincerely and did everything in his power to restrain the irate Father Goudan.

This act of standing on the ‘side of righteousness’ and forcefully restraining Father Goudan, while happily watching it continue to be irate, was incredibly satisfying for the three-eyed young senior.

The more furious Father Goudan became, unable to vent, the happier the three-eyed young senior felt.

Sometimes, the happiness of the ruler of the Netherworld was just so simple and childish.

The overly deliberate behavior of the three-eyed young ruler was so much that even Senior White Two nearby found it difficult to watch.

But the three-eyed young ruler’s actions were correct.

Even though his intentions were twisted, his actions were right.

Doing the work of justice with a heart of darkness.

…

In the vacuum, with one foot, the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon stepped on the ‘Fourth Shadow,’ while it swung its dragon mustaches, wrapping around the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber,’ and delivered a powerful cut!

With its foot crushing its mighty enemy, it brazenly swung the saber.

The Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon made an imposing entrance unmatched by any!

And its saber strike was just as majestic.

Contained within that single strike were seemingly nine different kinds of intent, as if the striped dragon was experiencing nine different lives.

These intents layered upon each other seamlessly.

And within the final layer of intent, there was a hint of Song Shuhang’s breath, merged with the power of the striped dragon, transforming into an unparalleled slash.

The ‘Fourth Shadow’ underfoot was continuously sliced apart, losing any strength to counterattack, struggling to resist, firmly suppressed by the striped dragon beneath its mighty foot!

Having suppressed the main ‘Fourth Heavenly Dao Figure,’ the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon looked towards Fairy Cheng Lin and Heavenly Emperor with a vivid demonstration of ‘evident joy and cheerfulness.’

Then, it raised its head, and toward the vacuum, opened its mouth, as if it was silently saying something.

“What is Heavenly Dao Father Goudan saying?” Daoist Senior uttered, barely sustaining his last bit of consciousness. The world now plunged into a massive crisis, and Daoist Senior, with this shred of consciousness, was not willing to close his eyes. He wanted to witness the world becoming ‘safe and sound’ before he could take his last breath!

“[It is saying that time is limited.]” Father Goudan’s dragon body was silently suppressed on the ground by the three-eyed young senior, unable to move: “[It relies on the power of the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber,’ using me as a marking, temporarily returning. Before it can solve the restriction after ‘breaking free,’ the time it can stay in the main world is limited, and it needs to continuously pay a price.]”

This resembles the ‘Dark Heaven.’

The Dark Heaven usually stirs trouble in the main world by using a part of its ‘Immortal Shell + its own ruler of the Netherworld’ transformed into the Avatar of the Dark Sun.

The true ‘Dark Fourth Heavenly Dao’s main body, every time it descends to the main world, is limited by time. After a while, it must return, falling into an endless slumber. To exercise the authority of the Heavenly Dao, it must burn the ‘consciousness’ within its immortal shell as a price.

The ‘price’ paid by the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon is the saber intent armor on the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.

The Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, which had finally transformed into ‘Eighth Revolution,’ now has its seal saber intent armor gradually degrading.

“[That is to say, the Heavenly Dao Father Goudan hastens Shuhang… or White Heavenly Dao, hoping they quickly come up with a countermeasure.]” Lady Kunna guessed.

The words of the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon were certainly meant for Song Shuhang or the white-robed figure.

Reincarnation Blade Fairy frowned, “[Can Shuhang and Fellow Daoist White come up with a plan?]”

One after another, materialized ‘phantoms,’ each one needing an ‘Immortal Level’ existence to suppress.

Shuhang and White Heavenly Dao, who had just proved their Dao immortality, could they come up with a solution?

“[If we really talk about a plan… there is only one.]” Senior White Two spoke softly.

“[What I’m more worried about is that there might be more than four ‘phantoms.]” Daozi, with his last bit of consciousness, said bitterly.

In fact, just as he feared,

In another part of the myriad practitioners in the universe, the fifth ‘phantom’ still manifested.

Even as everyone was unwelcome to its arrival, even as everyone rejected its emergence, it still had the audacity, amid communal loathing, to make its entrance.

Then, Dark Song spoke up, “[Reincarnation Blade Fairy, please relay this to Fifth Heavenly Dao Fairy, to get ready for suppression.]”

“[My main body is already prepared,]” replied Reincarnation Blade Fairy.

Dark Song quickly added, “[Lady Kunna, please lend me your power.]”

“[Call me Lady Fat Ball, what do you need me for?]” Lady Kunna responded.

“[Please assist me in controlling the Fourth Heavenly Dao’s body—Cultivation Chat Immortal Path 999%, activate!]” Dark Song stepped out from the Netherworld Realm, taking over Tyrannical Song’s ‘Cultivator Chat System’ power, and in one breath, pushed it to its current limit.

The ruler of the Netherworld, in its lifetime, has one chance to enter the main world, one chance to exercise the authority of the Heavenly Dao.

Without hesitation, Dark Song used these two chances all at once.

In the vacuum, the pure body of the Fourth Heavenly Dao descended from the ‘Heavenly Principle Dimension,’ materializing in front of Dark Song.

Dark Song slapped the pure body of the ‘Fourth Heavenly Dao,’ using the ‘Cultivator Chat System’ to activate a newly completed feature—remote desktop control.

The Fourth Heavenly Dao had once sneakily registered an account in ‘Cultivator Chat System’—although it quickly deleted its account, the ‘root’ of it remained within Song Shuhang’s ‘Cultivator Chat System.’

Now, Dark Song reactivated the Fourth Heavenly Dao’s account and connected it with Lady Kunna, allowing her to remotely control the Fourth Heavenly Dao’s pure shell by using the ‘remote desktop control’ feature!

This function was developed by Song Shuhang while he was figuring out how to control the ‘Fourth Heavenly Dao Shell,’ borrowing the idea from a modern chatting software.

Unexpectedly, it could be put to use at this time.

Lady Kunna, who was equally familiar with the ‘Cultivation Chat System,’ quickly got the hang of it and took control of the ‘Fourth Heavenly Dao’s’ shell.

“[Should I suppress this fifth ‘phantom?’]” Lady Kunna replied.

“No, Lady Fat Ball… first, we join hands to transfer it to where the Fifth Heavenly Dao Fairy is! You have other targets to deal with.]” Dark Song started to exert Heavenly Dao authority, forcibly performed a space switch.

“[Understood.]” Lady Kunna nodded her head.

The sky full of Heavenly Dao debris picked up, wrapping around the ‘fifth phantom,’ working in tandem with Dark Song’s space switching ability.

Heaven and earth change.

The ‘fifth phantom’ was transferred by Dark Song and Lady Kunna next to the Reincarnation Seal of the Fifth Heavenly Dao Fairy.

“`

The fifth against the fifth.

The Fairy of the Fifth Heavenly Dao had long been prepared, and as soon as the Figure of the 5th appeared, it was pressed down by the Great Seal, the power of reincarnation wildly sweeping down and pulling it into the infinite cycle of reincarnation.

Lady Kunna took timely control of the ‘Body of the Fourth Heavenly Dao’, detaching it from the ‘Figure of the 5th’.

“Who is my target?” Lady Kunna asked.

“Go!” Dark Song pushed with his hand, and the Body of the Fourth Heavenly Dao shifted.

There, the Figure of the 6th was subtly bubbling up—unlike the previous five figures, the Figure of the 6th was moving stealthily.

But just as its head emerged, the Body of the Fourth Heavenly Dao remotely controlled by Lady Kunna already descended like a sky-covering blanket.

Each grain of sand fell like a star.

Moreover, the more they attacked, the more stars there would be. Slice one star, and it split into two stars.

The Figure of the 6th was suppressed.

At this point, Song Shuhang had exhausted all his methods.

Yet those ‘figures’ seemed as if they hadn’t reached their end.

The 7th figure was also beginning to show signs of taking form…

“Three-Eyed, can you summon your own Heavenly Dao back?” Father Goudan asked.

“How would I know? I don’t get along with it; I’m just a tortured experimental subject. Besides, even if that guy shows up, no one can guarantee which side it will take. It might very well stand against us.” The three-eyed young senior spoke gravely.

“Lord White, what about your Heavenly Dao?” the last consciousness of Daozi asked.

Senior White Two gently shook his head: “He might not be able to return, and perhaps, might not be able to appear again.”

Not every Heavenly Dao can come back.

For instance…

Fat Ball.

The Heavenly Dao of the Fat Ball, the Eighth Heavenly Dao, is impossible to reappear.

Within the Heavenly Principle Dimension.

“Senior White, we can’t keep dragging this out. Heavenly Dao Father Goudan’s return has a time limit… Lady Kunna is remotely controlling the Body of the Fourth Heavenly Dao, which is fine for a short time, but over a longer period, flaws are likely to emerge… The Fifth Heavenly Dao Fairy is also in charge of the ‘Reincarnation System’, she can’t keep suppressing the other side indefinitely,” Song Shuhang said.

At this moment, he had made up his mind.

Although he really wanted to wait a bit longer to perfect the ‘Immortal Replacement’ plan and then transcend with Senior White as two separate individuals to avoid leaving any problems behind, it seemed like time waited for no one.

No matter how fast Tyrannical Song ‘advanced,’ time always pressed him to keep moving forward, leaving him no time to stop and rest.

Therefore, Song Shuhang was prepared to let Senior White transcend first and become a graduate of the Heavenly Dao.

Now, it seemed that only by transcending, surpassing the Heavenly Dao, surpassing time, surpassing space, and surpassing the Heavenly Dao Authority, could the current dilemma be resolved.

“Yes, we indeed cannot keep dragging this out,” Senior White said softly.

So…

You are free, Shuhang.

Senior White didn’t say this out loud.

He merely whispered it in his heart.

He might have an obsession with ‘detaching from the Heavenly Dao and graduating from it,’

But he didn’t have that much determination for what he wanted to do after detaching.

Whether it’s the ‘past’ leftover obsessions or the ‘distant future’ hopes, they were all entangled with Song Shuhang.

Isn’t it natural for matters belonging to Song Shuhang to be handled by himself?

Moreover, him staying behind is more important than Song Shuhang staying.

At least he can suppress the luck of the myriad practitioners in the universe.

With Senior White’s will and decision.

The time in the Heavenly Principle Dimension seemed to pause.

Two Heavenly Dao wills were activated, manifesting from Song Shuhang and Senior White.

These were not the wisps of Heavenly Dao will that Song Shuhang had previously differentiated into the main world, but a complete, unbroken, immortal will of the Heavenly Dao’s main body.

The two Heavenly Dao wills were activated, projecting from the Heavenly Principle Dimension all the way to the myriad realms, where their phantoms were vaguely observed by cultivators across all worlds!

This signified that the Heavenly Dao was about to do something big.

An event significant enough to shake the myriad realms would have such a projection.

“Have you finally decided?” Senior White Two whispered.

This was the best choice to resolve the current predicament.

Within the Myriad Realm Void.

The ‘Heavenly Dao’s Will Projection’ belonging to Song Shuhang gradually became more distinct. Vaguely, one could see some principles and rules entwined on his body.

These rules and principles represented not only power but also Bind.

To have power is to have obligations and responsibilities!

“Senior White?” Song Shuhang’s Heavenly Dao will was still somewhat bewildered.

Opposite him, the Heavenly Dao will of Senior White gently bent over, reaching for the ‘rules and principles’ on Song Shuhang’s body, tugging violently.

The constraints of these rules were pulled to the limit in Senior White’s hands, making a sound on the verge of snapping.

But just then…

Two ‘figures’ materialized in the vacuum simultaneously.

The 7th and the 8th figures.

These two figures appeared in the vacuum, launching their attacks across space at that ‘projection.’

Their attacks seemed to penetrate the ‘projection,’ directly targeting the real bodies of Song Shuhang and Senior White.

“Be careful!” the last consciousness of Daoist Senior called out unwillingly.

He wished he could still summon his own ‘Heavenly Dao Body’ to block the two attacks.

But he was the 8.5th Dao, different from a true Heavenly Dao; he didn’t have a ‘Heavenly Dao Return’ feature!

At that moment…

A pair of bewildered eyeballs appeared in front of the 7th and 8th figures.

Boom boom～

The attacks of the two figures directly blasted the body of the bewildered eyeballs.

“Ah～ I’m dead～” the puzzled eyeballs let out a drawn-out cry.

The three-eyed young senior couldn’t help but post a huge question mark in the group chat: “?”

“Is that not your butler?” Father Goudan asked.

The suddenly appearing puzzled eyeballs were indeed the old butler of the three-eyed young senior, the one that always wanted to switch employers!
