NOVEL NEXT Chapter 325: A Familiar Recipe_2
However, Emperor Jun's attention was not on his own Merit Golden Wheel, but on the golden eyes that contained the breath of the Heavenly Dao.
He manipulated the myriad laws within the Heavenly Realm Law Golden Wheel, touching the core golden eyes once again.
This time, Hong Jun, the Daoist Ancestor, did not appear, nor did the Heavenly Dao, and even the golden eyes did not exhibit any resistance, allowing the laws of the Heavenly Realm Law Golden Wheel to slowly spread over its body.
Seeing this, Emperor Jun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He no longer cautiously probed, but rapidly occupied the golden eyes with the laws controlled by the Heavenly Realm Law Golden Wheel.
However, he soon discovered that things were not so simple.
It was fine at the beginning, but as his occupying speed reached a certain degree, Emperor Jun began to feel resistance.
This sense of resistance was very faint to Emperor Jun, but it significantly affected the speed of his occupation.
Emperor Jun tried all kinds of methods but could not increase the speed of occupation again.
At this moment, Emperor Jun once again noticed the Merit Golden Wheel behind him, which was gradually shrinking.
The speed at which the Merit Golden Wheel was disappearing had not changed; it was vanishing steadily.
At this point, Emperor Jun realized that his ability to occupy the golden eyes was due to this merit, and thus the speed of his occupation must be related to the disappearance of this merit.
Thinking of this, Emperor Jun calmed down once more, no longer pursuing the speed of occupation.
Emperor Jun's Merit Golden Wheel was shrinking, and the golden eyes were being occupied by the laws controlled by Emperor Jun.
The laws imbued with Emperor Jun's essence were spreading from the surroundings of the golden eyes towards the pupils.
After a long while, Emperor Jun's Merit Golden Wheel disappeared, transforming into a cluster of golden clouds that were also rapidly disappearing, until the merit completely vanished.
At this time, Emperor Jun looked at the golden eyes, frowning.
Because Emperor Jun had not completely occupied the golden eyes yet; the center of the pupil still did not contain laws imbued with Emperor Jun's essence.
After the merit had completely disappeared, Emperor Jun, no matter what he did, could not continue to occupy the golden eyes.
To gain complete control of the Heavenly Realm, enormous merit was needed.
Emperor Jun had anticipated this earlier, but he didn't expect that his merit accumulated over countless ages was still not enough.
At the same time, doubts existed in Emperor Jun's heart.
If his own merit was insufficient, why would the Heavenly Dao still engage in a transaction with him?
But before Emperor Jun could figure this out, the light enveloping Emperor Jun was rapidly disappearing.
After the light disappeared, the golden eyes carrying the Heavenly Realm Law Golden Wheel started to fade, as if they were about to vanish.
After occupying the golden eyes, Emperor Jun could feel his control over the Heavenly Realm had indeed increased.
But from the state of the occupied golden eyes, Emperor Jun knew that he had not fully gained control over the Heavenly Realm.
Looking at the gradually fading golden eyes, a myriad of thoughts filled Emperor Jun's mind, and an idea quickly flashed through his mind.
"I am Emperor Jun, the Heavenly Emperor, controller of the Heavenly Court, creator of the Celestial Heaven Star Formation, and maintainer of Primordial order. I beseech the Heavenly Dao to show mercy, grant merit to assist me in controlling the Heavenly Realm, and I shall surely repay this later, let the Heavenly Dao witness this."
Emperor Jun said solemnly.
This was the method Emperor Jun thought of; since the Western Daoist Zhun Ti and Daoist Jie Yin from the past could establish great vows and borrow merit to become Saints.
Why couldn't Emperor Jun borrow merit to control the Heavenly Realm?
Moreover, Emperor Jun's credibility and qualifications were much better than those of the two Western Saints.
The primary way Daoist Zhun Ti and Daoist Jie Yin from the West could obtain merit before becoming saints was merely by repairing ley lines.
However, Emperor Jun had many ways to acquire merit.
The position of Heavenly Emperor alone, controlling the entire Heavenly Court, maintaining Primordial order, need not be mentioned more.
Merely the Celestial Heaven Star Formation that continuously transformed Chaotic Spiritual Energy into Innate Spiritual Energy, making the Primordial World cycle day and night, changing through the seasons.
Also, there were the Four Symbols Pillars, which were also a continuous source of merit.
Moreover, there's the merit of the Human Clan and the merit involved in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Lending merit to Emperor Jun is more reliable than lending it to Daoist Zhunti and Daoist Jie Yin; there's no need to worry that Emperor Jun would fail to repay.
However, Emperor Jun also recognized the potential issue, which was the possibility of being constrained by the Heavenly Dao.
After carefully contemplating the issue, Emperor Jun noted that neither Zhunti Saint nor Jieyin Saint was forced to do anything.
When Emperor Jun made his request, those gradually fading golden eyes suddenly solidified, and the aura of the Heavenly Dao intensified.
Moments later, no merit appeared within the Heavenly Dao Space, but Emperor Jun inexplically felt himself burdened with a debt of merit.
It gave Emperor Jun a familiar sensation.
In his previous life, he had experienced a similar burden with a housing loan, but now, he was burdened with a debt of merit.
However, this sensation was fleeting, and his attention was soon drawn back to those golden eyes.
He felt the resistance from the golden eyes completely vanish and immediately seized control of the law to continue the assimilation.
This time, the assimilation was without limitation.
Soon, the centers of the golden eyes, the pupils, were occupied by Emperor Jun's law.
In an instant, Emperor Jun's various laws along the veins of the golden eyes formed a special core.
The aura of the Primordial Heavenly Dao completely vanished, and Emperor Jun's aura began to permeate, as the golden eyes gradually changed.
The eyes gradually shifted towards the shape of Emperor Jun's eyes until they were identical.
Starting from the core of the Heavenly Realm Law Golden Wheel, Emperor Jun's law aura began to rapidly spread outwards.
From initially being from the outside in, now it dominated from inside out.
Law Throne, Heavenly Realm Space, and even the entire Thirty-Three Heavens.
All beings within the Heavenly Realm felt the presence of the Demon Emperor, fleeting yet distinct.
In the hearts of these beings, nothing felt amiss.
After all, from the very beginning, it was the Demon Emperor who had moved them into the Heavenly Realm, where the presence of the Demon Emperor in the Thirty-Three Heavens was a normal affair.
Emperor Jun felt the changes occurring throughout the Heavenly Realm, and now all of it appeared before his eyes.
His eyes shone golden, witnessing the birth and development of the Heavenly Realm.
The Heavenly Realm initially appeared in a spatial interlayer within the Primordial World and constituted the Thirty-Three Heavens.
However, the Thirty-Three Heavens back then were not as expansive as they are now.
As the Primordial World expanded within Chaos, the Thirty-Three Heavens also underwent transformations and expanded, leading to more abundant Innate Spiritual Energy.
Meanwhile, the Primordial Heavenly Dao also spread throughout the Heavenly Realm, as though a new world was being pioneered.
Initially, the laws of the Primordial Heavenly Dao in the Heavenly Realm were exposed.
Emperor Jun tightly focused on the process of the spread of the Primordial Heavenly Dao laws in the Heavenly Realm.
He could feel that there was a difference between the Primordial Heavenly Dao of that time and the one of today.
Back then, the Primordial Heavenly Dao gave Emperor Jun a sense of immaturity, as if it had just been born not long ago.
Youthfulness was good, the Immaturity made it easier for Emperor Jun to pierce into its essence which significantly benefits his cultivation.
Emperor Jun realized that his Cultivation Realm was still vastly different from the Primordial Heavenly Dao.
From the origin tracing of the Heavenly Realm, Emperor Jun perceived the gradual strengthening of the Primordial Heavenly Dao in the Heavenly Realm, with laws continuously evolving.
Through glimpses, Emperor Jun could deduce the birth, development, and gradual growth of the Primordial Heavenly Dao through the Heavenly Realm.
Simultaneously, the Law Golden Wheel inside Emperor Jun was also rapidly spinning, continuously generating new laws, its very nature and structural composition swiftly undergoing changes.
These changes aligned with what Emperor Jun perceived in the past Heavenly Realm when the Primordial Heavenly Dao had just descended into the realm.
It was a golden eye, from which countless laws emanated, spreading across the Thirty-Three Heavens.
