Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence-Chapter 786 - 359: One Big Step _2
```
To know that although there are five divisions among heaven, earth, humans, ghosts, and gods in essence, they are all one realm, and even a Major Heavenly Immortal is merely within the Immortal Realm.
With the resurrection of the celestial rules to this stage, it almost means that the current world can accommodate the descent of Major Heavenly Immortals, and even if a Golden Immortal shields karma and Heaven's Secrets, it can descend in secret without facing the Mortal Path's Punishment.
"How is this possible? Why has the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge of the Primal Chaos Realm revived so swiftly?"
Before Golden Immortal Bai Yun could ponder the cause, a piercing roar suddenly came from a shadowy corner within the Exalted Void Palace.
"Be careful!"
In an instant, a pale hand spanned the limits of time and space, silently falling into the Exalted Void Palace.
As if bearing the infinite force of the Mortal Path, it burst forth mightily; within the Exalted Void Palace, numerous vast Formations glimmered, their patterns interlocked, shrouding the entirety of the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens.
Yet all of this lasted merely a second, the next moment the Formations shattered loudly, a storm of spatial collapse swept through the temporary stay palace constructed by the lower realm's Clarity Void Exalted One.
Vast quantities of True Immortal blood from the Blood Pond evaporated, with billowing mists engulfing the entire Exalted Void Palace.
Golden Immortal Bai Yun glared at that hand which descended through time and space, and said in a stern, severe tone:
"How dare you!"
Misty cloudscape spread, and within the clouds emerged a series of magnificent worlds, completely engulfing that hand which seemed capable of destroying the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens.
The crisis of a collapsing realm, in the blink of an eye, disappeared into nothingness, leaving only the ruins of the Exalted Void Palace.
Atop the ruins, a figure dressed in snow-white robes stepped out from another dimension.
Golden Immortal Bai Yun, looking at that familiar figure, a flicker of surprise passed through his eyes.
With his keen insight, he could naturally tell that Shen Yuan's cultivation was only at the Tao Harmony Stage, and although that palm had already surpassed the boundaries of an ordinary Major Heavenly Immortal, it could not possibly threaten an Eternal Golden Immortal.
Golden Immortal Bai Yun's gaze darkened, and with a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, he said:
"I admit you are somewhat unique, if I were still burdened with injuries from the Tao, perhaps I would indeed be severely injured by you.
Too bad you have exposed yourself; from now on, I will use all means at my disposal to annihilate you, you no longer have a chance!"
Shen Yuan said nothing, only calmly walked towards Golden Immortal Bai Yun.
With each step he took, his Tao Harmony Stage cultivation which had been stagnant for thousands of years began to grow.
Invisible shackles released, splendor fell from the heavens, golden lotuses sprouted from the earth, and signs of achieving Tao projected from the Primal Chaos Realm into the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens.
The pantheon position of the Divinity Path's Donghua Emperor, the pantheon position of the Netherworld's Fengdu Emperor, the great force of the Mortal Emperor's Mortal Path, the origin of the Path of Refining Elemental Qi in the Earth Path, and the will of the world of Primal Chaos Realm's Heaven Path revealed themselves; aspects of the five paths of heaven, earth, humans, ghosts, and gods constantly unfolded around Shen Yuan.
All the cultivators within the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens stood in stunned silence towards the direction of the Exalted Void Palace, witnessing the descent of the banished Immortal onto the mortal world; a deep-seated instinct within their Spirit Souls forced them to bow their heads, not daring to make eye contact.
Among the numerous members of the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens' Sacred Land, the serene and otherworldly Saintess Qing Yu watched Shen Yuan with her beautiful eyes; memories sealed for ten thousand years began to awaken.
"Breakthrough in battle? Mere child's play.
Tao Harmony is far from Eternal; even if you could ascend to the Heavenly Immortal Realm in one step, it is still separated from the Eternal Realm by a chasm that is difficult to cross.
Do you, perhaps, intend to use Heavenly Immortal cultivation to strike down an Eternal Golden Immortal?"
Golden Immortal Bai Yun, sneering, extended his right hand, from which a Dharma Seal evolved, and a Great Bell formed from clouds descended upon Shen Yuan.
"Oom!!!"
The resonating sound of a harsh collision rose; that immense bell was unable to penetrate that descended radiant light from the sky.

An ominous premonition arose from the depths of Golden Immortal Bai Yun's heart. The being in the shadow could no longer afford to reveal themselves and roared furiously at Bai Yun:
"Burn your Eternal True Spirit, resort to your most powerful Divine Skills; this is your only chance for survival!"
```
"Too late!"
At this moment, after ten thousand years of erosion, the five paths of heaven, earth, humans, ghosts, and gods finally merged into one.
Shen Yuan could only feel the rich Immortal Spirit Qi washing over every inch of his body, his mortal flesh beginning to be replaced by the concept known as the Tao, transcending the confines of flesh and blood.
And behind Shen Yuan, the Great Tao Manifestation that sat in higher dimensions began to escape the confines of dimensionality itself, transcending all things in the world.
During this process, Shen Yuan could clearly sense that his own will had taken the place of the world's intent in the Primal Chaos Realm.
Why would the world will suppress all beings yet show special favor to the Netherworld, even allowing the cultivation of Netherworld Demon Gods to surpass the limits of heaven and earth?
This was not merely to maintain the order of reincarnation in the Netherworld, but more importantly, because Shen Yuan had melted the Primal Chaos Intent and forged the Nine Provinces Cauldron, the world will birthed within it would be influenced by Shen Yuan's will.
It was only natural for the world will to show favor to a Netherworld that Shen Yuan had created himself.
However, even if the world will was particularly close to Shen Yuan, at that time, Shen Yuan was ultimately only at the Unity Realm Stage, and could not truly merge with the world will.
It was not until Shen Yuan ascended to the Major Heavenly Immortal Realm, when he needed to replace the will of a world with his own Heavenly Immortal Intent, that the will of a Major Heavenly Immortal merged with the world will, enabling Shen Yuan to complete this pivotal step.
Throughout the history of countless worlds spanning ages, there had never been a Major Heavenly Immortal who could replace the will of a great chiliocosm with their Heavenly Immortal Intent.
It was as if the Primal Chaos Intent from ten thousand years ago had awakened, and the Giant Cauldrons of the Primal Chaos Realm hovering above were trembling with the resonance of the Tao, welcoming the return of the master of the Primal Chaos Realm.
All of this occurred in the blink of an eye, making the pupils of Golden Immortal Bai Yun contract to the extreme, his face unable to maintain calm any longer.
"Step into Major level in one go? How is that possible?"
A shocked question burst forth from the mouth of Golden Immortal Bai Yun, as his Eternal True Spirit shone brightly, trying to see through the false illusion before his eyes. However, the response from the Eternal True Spirit told him that all of this was indeed happening.
Indeed, whether it's the lowest divine immortal or the supreme Major Heavenly Immortal, both belong to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, but the gap between them had long been unimaginable.
To step into the Heavenly Immortal Realm by piercing through the Heavens is already an exceptionally rare prodigy amongst all worlds, but to directly reach the Major level is unheard of.
If it were merely the realm of Major Heavenly Immortal, with the cultivation of Golden Immortal Bai Yun at the Eternal Realm, suppressing him would be an effortless task.
However, emanating from Shen Yuan, the unprecedented Supreme Taoist who made it to Major level in one step, Golden Immortal Bai Yun could feel a threatening aura that instilled fear.
His aura was like an Upper Realm Emperor inspecting all worlds, yet like the Netherworld Emperor presiding over the Netherworld, as if a Mortal Emperor were ascending the throne to command all worlds, or an Exalted One refining Elemental Qi and passing on the teachings to all paths.
As a former page boy of Clarity Void Exalted One, Golden Immortal Bai Yun had witnessed several Exalted Emperors, but none were as unfathomable as Shen Yuan.
The Eternal True Spirit within him quivered, as if validating the words of that shadowy voice, and amidst the interwoven fear, Golden Immortal Bai Yun resolutely chose to ignite his Eternal True Spirit.
The immortal light extinguished in the flames of the True Spirit Fire, as the aura from Turmoil burst forth from deep within Golden Immortal Bai Yun's spirit, transforming into a flying sword that slashed towards Shen Yuan.
In an instant, time and space fell silent, the surrounding space seemed to enter the end of the world, repeating the boundless Turmoil after the destruction of realms.
At that moment, the world will from the Primal Chaos Realm forcibly broke through the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens, wishing to descend upon the Sacred Land of the Grotto Heavens to resist this sword ignited by the Eternal True Spirit.
However, the shadow in the corner of the palace at that moment burst forth, transforming into a Pitch-Black Demon God, with a dark canopy enveloping everything, swallowing the entire Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens, completely sealing off this Grotto Heavens Sacred Land.
"I'll block the world will for you; seize this opportunity to slay him here!"
The Pitch-Black Demon God let out a mad roar, and the mere instant of resistance resulted in numerous cracks appearing on its body, as the world will of a level beyond any ordinary great chiliocosm was simply not something a Golden Immortal incarnation could block.
What he was grasping for was merely a sliver of a chance.
But just at that moment, atop a peak in the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens closest to the firmament, the memory-restored Saintess Qing Yu harnessed the True Fire of the Great Sun from ten thousand years prior.
Like a supernova erupting, the True Fire of the Great Sun that had accumulated over eons consumed everything except for Qing Yu.
The Pitch-Black Demon God had not anticipated such a catastrophe to erupt within the Sacred Land of Grotto Heavens; the desperate blockade shattered with a boom.
The next moment, the entire Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens were crushed by the supreme will of the Primal Chaos Realm!
