Chapter 6711: Listen Carefully

The ultimate beast form couldn’t survive the primordial will; its life force disappeared entirely. On the other hand, the will saved the heavenly being from dying to the beam.

The unkillable nature of the being seemingly determined the outcome of this fight.

However, the dying Li Qiye smiled and said: “Listen carefully.”

“Listen?” The celestial being became confused.

Chaos’ life and power had dispersed earlier; its heart stopped beating. Alas, another beat started.

This wasn’t Chaos’ heart but rather, the heart of heaven and earth from before the primordial period.

If the overarching world disappeared, the primordial would appear. If the primordial disappeared, this beat would replace it.

In the next moment, wills gathered everywhere. Anything with life force reacted to this summoning. Their heart beat with the same rhythm, whether it be the birds or grasses. They felt an instinctive desire to control their destiny. The truth of life emerged.

They wanted agency, not to be subjected to the shackles of the high heaven.

“This is...” The dead heart of Chaos beat again with the rhythm of origination.

“What is it?” The trio inside the celestial being felt something was wrong, not having control over this special beat.

All lives rejected the high heaven, even the ants. Therefore, the celestial being was rejected as well.

“The first thought of all beasts, control over their fate.” Li Qiye smiled.

“Control their fate, not the high heaven...” The trio murmured.

“Yes, the high heaven does not decide!” They started resonating since they were alive.

Thus, they rejected the high heaven. The problem was that they were within the celestial being right now. Therefore, the indestructible being dispersed into particles.

“My life is mine.” They sighed and felt the rejection, going as far as agreeing with it.

The primordial will that had pierced Chaos also dispersed into primordial laws, flowing toward the present.

“I am the present.” Taichu realized something.

“Yes, and the present is free from the high heaven’s machination.” Li Qiye said.

“Sacred Teacher, thank you and goodbye.” As the body dispersed, Fiendish Ground sighed and said.

“Thank you for letting us feel this freedom. My fate is mine!” Evil Transformation spoke.

Meanwhile, immortals that have reached the shore, or paramita immortals, observed and sensed the influx of power toward the present.

“Can this become the high heaven?” One paramita immortal in an unknown location became startled.

Although they couldn’t see the terminus, they shared the feeling of freedom like the others. This might be a path capable of replacing the high heaven.

“As I predicted, you found a way to replace the high heaven. Of course, of course.” That person observed the terminus and said softly.

Paramita and primordial power flowed toward the present. Those in the present Three Immortals saw them turning into laws and forming the tree again.

In its dimension, it connected to three thousand worlds, serving as the framework. Incoming particles and essences returned to its world.

The tree’s size couldn’t be assessed. The world could only see one branch at a time. When particles touched the branches and leaves, halos emanated.

The flashing halos painted the silhouette of the great tree for everyone to see. When they looked up, they saw a vague and enormal outline beyond the firmament.

“The great tree is with us!” Many fell to their knees in reverence and felt an unparalleled sense of closeness as if they were one with the world.
