Thus, the Heavenly Dao would not lose.
No matter how the situation developed, no matter how chaotic it was, it did not affect Chu Xuan at all.
He stayed in the courtyard, waiting for the million-year milestone to arrive.
The four Divine Beasts had already broken through to the Dao Supreme Ruler realm, while the heavenly spirit cat and the sky-shaking golden roc had made significant progress in the Dao Supreme Ruler realm.
The spirit devouring flower had also reached the Dao Supreme Ruler realm.
It was also the Heavenly Dao's Divine Tree, so when necessary, it could return to the Heavenly Dao and stabilize its development.
In the void region, the pitch-black mountain continued to move forward, getting closer and closer to where Heavenly Sun World was.
On this day, everyone on the mountain whispered, "The heavens!"
Even though they were already far away from the Heavenly Sun World, they could sense Hao's influence through their unconscious thoughts about the heavens.
Hao's influence was unavoidable. The more this was the case, the more fearful they were.
Most of them had participated in the great battle back then, so they knew how terrifying he was.
The more ancient an existence was, the more they knew how powerful and terrifying Hao was.
The number of Dao Supreme Rulers back then actually was not low. Every generation, there would be a group of cultivators who managed to reach the Dao Supreme Ruler realm.
No one knew exactly how many Dao Supreme Rulers had been born over the countless years. Furthermore, Dao Supreme Rulers were not constrained by the limits of lifespan, and could live forever.
Under normal circumstances, it was very difficult for a Dao Supreme Ruler to kill another Dao Supreme Ruler.
As such, the reason why Supreme Rulers were so rare now was because they were all dead, and the culprit behind that was Hao, who used their origin essence to nourish the world.
There was once a period of time when the Supreme Rulers united and wanted to defy the Hao and break the cycle of fate.
After all, no one was willing to accept such a fate.
However, they failed.
All of the Dao Supreme Rulers who tried to defy Hao were eventually killed, and their origin essence scattered into the world to nourish it.
Hao was also a Dao Supreme Ruler, so why was he so powerful?
The later generations eventually understood that the paths to the Dao Supreme and Dao Supreme realms were pioneered by Hao.
He had reached the limit of the Dao Supreme Ruler realm and had even taken half a step into the next realm.
It was even possible that the paths they took as latecomers were flawed due to Hao's intervention, and were incomplete. As such, the gap between them and Hao was insurmountable.
Countless years passed.
The Heavenly Sun World was still the same, and so was the chaos.
However, these Dao Supreme Rulers knew that Hao was preparing for the creation of a new world and a new path. Once he succeeded, he would use their origin essence to nourish that new world.
Therefore, if they did not do something about it, their lives would end like those who had gone before them.
The Dao Supreme Rulers looked at the two figures at the top of the mountain.
Chu Luo and Xuan Qiu…
One was from the Heavenly Sun World, and the other was from the chaos. It just so happened that one was Yang and one was Yin.
Moreover, both of them had great fortunes and special treasures. They actually avoided Hao's control and became the key to breaking the cycle of fate.
Therefore, they had silently supported these two and spent countless years planning.
In order not to be detected by Hao, they all hid in the void region.
The Dao Supreme Rulers who had fled to the void region much earlier were turned into nothingness before the plan could even be carried out.
However, they did not regret it!
"Even if I turn into nothingness, I won't make it easy for Hao!"
They laughed as they perished.
However, they still failed in the end.
Chu Luo's father, Chu Tianming, was reckless and arrogant, and had incited Hao to action by acting before the plan was ready.
Of course, Chu Tianming was not entirely to blame.
Hao had already noticed the abnormality and had already begun to take action.
However, Chu Tianming's recklessness had brought the great battle forward. They were unprepared and lost, as they had underestimated Hao.
Before the great battle broke out, no one had expected Hao to support and nurture so many Dao Supreme realm and Dao Supreme Ruler realm experts.
Even Chu Luo and Xuan Qiu could only protect a portion of the survivors.
After that great battle, none of them were capable of defeating Hao. The only solution was if Chu Luo and Xuan Qiu had the strength to rival Hao.
"We have to defeat Hao this time," a Dao Supreme Ruler said in a desolate tone.
"If necessary, we should sacrifice ourselves to strengthen Chu Luo and Xuan Qiu's strength. Even if we can't kill Hao, we can still severely injure him and break his control over the world. That will make it our victory," another Dao Supreme Ruler said in a deep voice.
"That's the only way!"
Everyone sighed.
They could all leave behind a wisp of their origin essence while sacrificing themselves so that these two could successfully break through the situation and be reborn.
If they were going to die, why not sacrifice themselves to make Chu Luo and Xuan Qiu stronger?
If Chu Luo and Xuan Qiu managed to break through, they would be able to hold Hao back. Then, they would have the chance to be reborn through the wisp of origin essence they left behind.
No matter what the final outcome was, it was still better than having their origin essence harvested and scattered by Hao.
On the peak, Xuan Qiu stared at Chu Luo and asked seriously, ""Do you still have a backup plan?"
"You know my plan. I didn't hide it from you," Chu Luo said helplessly.
"Hmph!"
Xuan Qiu snorted coldly.
"You're a cunning and shameless person. How could you only have one plan?"
"You and I are husband and wife. Why would I hide it from you?"
Xuan Qiu sneered.
"I shouldn't have been so stupid back then and been deceived by you!"
Chu Luo's mouth twitched and he sighed. "That was all in the past. Why bother with it now?"
At this moment, Chu Luo was exhausted.
Back then, he was in a difficult situation, so he had survived by relying on Xuan Qiu.
However, he did not feel that it was embarrassing to live off a woman.
"I was really lucky to have been able to marry you," Chu Luo chuckled.
"You're really shameless!"
"How many women have you hooked up with?" Xuan Qiu gritted her teeth and asked angrily.
"Just one," Chu Luo said seriously.
Xuan Qiu looked doubtful.
Chu Luo looked straight into her eyes. Her expression was calm, and her gaze was unwavering.
"Tell me, do you think I can help you break through if I give it my all and fuse with you? " Xuan Qiu asked after a long while.
"I'm not confident in my chances," Chu Luo said after a moment of silence..
"Qiu'er, what about you? Are you confident?"
"No, I'm not."
Xuan Qiu shook her head.
"I'm slightly weaker than you, so my chances of breaking through are lower than yours."
The two of them fell silent again.
If they did not defeat Hao, it would all be in vain!
Even if the two of them possessed great fortune and supreme treasures, they would still be unable to escape Hao's harvest in the end!
"I originally thought that if we combined our powers and fused them with Xuan'er, we could rely on the chaos to fight Hao and even kill him."
"Who knew that…"
Chu Luo sighed bitterly.
