As that wisp of supreme will was completely crushed, Lu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Without waiting for Lu Yan to make any move, an invisible gaze descended from above the Ninth Heaven, the gaze of the Apocalypse Celestial Dao.
Vast pressure enveloped the heavens and earth, and all things held their breath at this moment. From the depths of the void, countless mysterious fluctuations of the Dao Principles emerged, like an eternal river flowing in the unseen.
The sound of resonance of all things echoed through the heavens and earth, with Dao Principles interweaving, saturating the whole realm with mysterious and profound power fluctuations, as if eternal truths were manifesting in the world at this moment.
Lu Yan was not encountering the Celestial Dao for the first time; he had even taken on the embodiment of the Celestial Dao during the great shift of the Urban Celestial Dao, claiming to have a certain understanding of the Celestial Dao.
But the Apocalypse Celestial Dao that manifested at this moment far exceeded Lu Yan's previous narrow understanding of the Celestial Dao.
The Urban Celestial Dao controlled no Extraordinary Rules, everything within the framework of order.
Lu Yan, embodying the Spiritual Energy Revival Celestial Dao, had only given rise to a rudimentary form, the Extraordinary Rules he mastered were extremely immature, far from a true Extraordinary Celestial Dao.
Yet in the Apocalypse Version, the energy level was limited to the Early Stage of Golden Core, but the power demonstrated by the Celestial Dao presented a world of difference from the Urban Version.
In the instant of encountering the Apocalypse Celestial Dao, Lu Yan suddenly felt fortunate that he hadn't attempted anything resembling the embodiment of heaven in the Apocalypse Version.
Even slaughtering zombies to generate version shifting values was moving in a direction beneficial to the Apocalypse Celestial Dao.
If any other thoughts arose, even if the Apocalypse Celestial Dao couldn't act directly, it would only need to incite animosity among all beings towards Lu Yan and slightly manipulate the Heaven and Earth Rules during Lu Yan's battles to render his Divine Techniques powerless.
Under the gaze of the Apocalypse Celestial Dao, Lu Yan appeared very calm.
Although he needed to slaughter zombies to enhance the Soul Banner, it was clear that the invaded Apocalypse Celestial Dao was the more urgent one, naturally not acting against him.
A moment later, a mysterious Spiritual Light descended from above the sky.
The Spiritual Light seemed to be gathered from myriad colors, words could no longer describe its magnificent hues.
Without seeing Lu Yan make any move, the Spiritual Light fell into the Soul Banner in his hand, then the gaze of the Celestial Dao withdrew, and the various cosmic phenomena around him dissipated.
Everything came quickly, and went just as fast.
Lu Yan hurriedly gripped his Soul Banner, focusing to feel the changes within it.
In the next moment, information borne by the mysterious Spiritual Light continuously surged into Lu Yan's mind.
The information was not much, but it contained real and weighty significance, every word, every sentence, causing Lu Yan's Divine Soul, which had undergone supreme transformation, to tremble intensely.
If it were an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, their Divine Soul would be crushed by the weight of the information at the moment of receiving it.
After a long time, Lu Yan finished reading the content within the information and finally let out a long breath of relief.
The information descended by the Apocalypse Celestial Dao explained the essence of this Apocalypse invasion.
The version invasion undoubtedly posed a tremendous threat to the Celestial Dao, but it was also an opportunity for the Celestial Dao to ascend.
This is because a version invasion brings an Extraordinary System not belonging to the current version, enhancing the energy level of the version.
For instance, the Sun and Moon in the Apocalypse Version perpetually releasing Spiritual Qi are the masterpiece of the invasion of the supreme will, the original Apocalypse Celestial Dao was powerless to nurture such potent Sun and Moon.
If it weren't for these two pivotal Sun and Moon, how could the supreme will invade the Apocalypse Version?
It can be said that the version invasion is a grand gamble on the Celestial Dao itself.
If won, it can elevate the energy level of the version and then kick the invader out.
But if lost, with disrupted order of the Celestial Dao, it faces the crisis of being eroded.
The Apocalypse Celestial Dao chose to join this gamble; it had already engaged with the supreme will since the dawn of the Apocalypse.
The supreme will seized the Taiyin Moon, while the Apocalypse Celestial Dao controlled the Great Sun.
Although zombies initially occupied large expanses of the apocalypse, under the deterrence of Great Sun Spiritual Qi, unless a large-scale zombie tide erupted, zombies found it difficult to move during daylight, giving humanity a few opportunities to catch their breath.
Humanity received the favor of the Apocalypse Celestial Dao, maintaining stable development after initial chaos.
But as time went on, the Apocalypse Celestial Dao began to notice things were amiss.
The Spiritual Qi within the light of the Great Sun restrained zombies, while Great Sun Spiritual Qi could enhance the flesh and purify Magical Power, representing the creation of a stable Extraordinary System.
The original plan was for the human race to build a Cultivation System based on Great Sun Spiritual Qi, while zombies relied on Taiyin Moonlight Spiritual Qi, each having a complete system.
Since the Great Sun was controlled by the Apocalypse Celestial Dao, even if Taiyin mutated in the future, as long as the Great Sun remains stable, the cultivation foundation of the Apocalypse Version will not be affected.
The Apocalypse Celestial Dao need not worry about having its base undermined by supreme will, through inducing the downfall of an Extraordinary System to control the overall direction of the apocalypse.
But the Apocalypse Celestial Dao calculated all the contingencies of the supreme will but failed to account for changes in the human heart.
The cultivation system represented by Great Sun Spiritual Qi was indeed solid and stable, cultivating both Magical Power and flesh; if cultivation reached its peak, there might be hope for attaining saintly physique. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novel※fire.net
