At that moment, the sun suspended high in the Primordial World began to slowly descend. The immense and mighty aura of the Great Sun Radiance Immortal Authority seemed to fall from the heavens.
The Great Sun shone upon all, its radiance supreme, dominating the Immortal Dao!
In an instant, the chaotic scene resembling two armies clashing fell silent.
Everyone knew that the Great Sun Radiance represented the Nine Heavens Immortal Path.
Now that the Great Sun had descended, it was as if the Nine Heavens Immortal Path itself had arrived.
And in the Primordial World, the only entity representing the Nine Heavens Immortal Path was this world's Immortal Dynasty.
Sure enough.
As the sun descended, a figure seemed to emerge from within its light.
It was a woman.
A woman dressed in white robes, with her hair tied in a ponytail, her face expressionless.
It was none other than the ruler of the Primordial World's Immortal Dynasty, Mo Ruyi.
"Do not dare to cause trouble in the Primordial World. Disobedience will invoke the judgment of the Great Sun."
These were Mo Ruyi's words.
Direct and simple.
If anyone dared to cause trouble in the Primordial World, she, as the ruler of the Immortal Dynasty, would call down the judgment of the Great Sun.
At this,
No one dared to move any longer.
Just how powerful the sacred radiance aura contained within the Yunxia Sect's Sky-Piercing Sect Stele was, perhaps those present did not know. Just how terrifying the Grand Nature Momentum contained within the Seven-Color Phoenix perched above Yunxia Sect was, they likewise did not know.
However,
They all knew perfectly well how dreadful the judgment of that Great Sun hanging above their heads truly was.
Mo Ruyi stood suspended in the air, her plain face devoid of expression. Her calm eyes swept over the crowd, then settled on Lord Saint Yang. "Lord Saint Yang," she said, "the Nine Heavens have long since decreed that the Primordial World is not under the jurisdiction of your Immortal Court Residence. Why do you repeatedly enforce the law here? What is your intention!"
Lord Saint Yang was the ruler of the Lingluo Heavenly Domain, the sovereign master of the Immortal Dao in this domain. Naturally, he did not fear Mo Ruyi. He responded sternly, "The criminal disciple You Di cultivated at Yunxia Sect in his youth. Within the sect, there are also many of the Chixiao criminals who followed You Di in rebellion back then. This old man suspects You Di is hiding within Yunxia Sect, hence I have come to search!"
"Did you not hear my words clearly?
The Primordial World is not under Heavenly Domain jurisdiction. You also have no right to search anywhere within the Primordial World!"
"Mo Ruyi!"
Lord Saint Yang flew into a rage, shouting sharply, "This old man has said, for the safety of the Common Mortals of the Great Way, I am willing to violate the decree of the Nine Heavens. If I can slay the criminal disciple You Di, what does it matter if I forfeit this old life of mine!"
"Oh?"
Mo Ruyi's face still showed no emotional color. She said indifferently, "You wish to openly defy the decree of the Nine Heavens?"
"This old man does not wish to defy the decree of the Nine Heavens. It is only for the dignity of the Immortal Dao, and for the safety of all living beings, that I am forced to resort to this undesirable course."
Lord Saint Yang wore an expression of righteous determination, fearlessly declaring, "For the safety of the Common Mortals of the Great Way, this old man is willing to devote himself entirely, even unto death. If the Nine Heavens hold me accountable in the future, I alone shall bear the responsibility!"
Mo Ruyi looked at Lord Saint Yang and said softly, "This responsibility, you cannot bear. Nor do you have the qualification to bear it."
"There is no responsibility this old man cannot bear!"
Lord Saint Yang waved his hand grandly and shouted, "Yan Ze, search Yunxia Sect for me! If anyone dares to obstruct, charge them with disrupting Heavenly Domain Law and execute them on the spot!"
At Lord Saint Yang's command, Yan Ze immediately led a group of Heavenly Domain law enforcers to charge into Yunxia Sect.
Suddenly.
Mo Ruyi, who had seemed calm, underwent a subtle change in expression. A flash of killing intent appeared in her eyes as she coldly shouted, "Get lost!"
With a *bang*, the leading Yan Ze was immediately shaken, blood spraying from his mouth and nose. He let out a muffled groan and stumbled backward.
Seeing this scene, the crowd was shocked.
Yan Ze was the Heavenly Domain law enforcement commander, his strength formidable. Yet now, he had been shaken until blood sprayed from his mouth and nose by a single shout from Mo Ruyi. This struck everyone as unbelievable.
No one had expected Mo Ruyi to dare attack Yan Ze.
After all, Yan Ze was the Heavenly Domain law enforcement commander of Lingluo Heavenly Domain. In terms of status and position, he was above the ruler of an Immortal Dynasty. Although this was the Primordial World, and the Primordial World was not under Lingluo Heavenly Domain's jurisdiction, Mo Ruyi still could not defy her superiors!
"Mo Ruyi, you have some nerve!"
Lord Saint Yang was greatly alarmed, pointing at Mo Ruyi and shouting, "Do you have any respect for the Nine Heavens Immortal Path in your eyes? Daring to openly injure a law enforcement commander personally appointed by the Nine Heavens? This is defying your superiors! Today, this old man..." Before Lord Saint Yang could finish, Mo Ruyi cut him off. She raised her hand slightly and said softly, "Open your eyes wide and see what this is!"
Mo Ruyi took out a token. The token was not large, entirely silver-white. When she produced it, it radiated brilliant light, dazzlingly bright. The aura of sacred radiance could be clearly felt by everyone, and its supreme Immortal Authority inspired awe in heart and mind. Carved on the token were several large characters: above, 'Nine Heavens Immortal Path'; in the middle, 'Great Sun Radiance'.
Seeing this token,
The expressions of everyone present changed drastically.
This included the ten-thousand Heavenly Domain Immortal Officials, as well as the hundred Heavenly Domain Elders.
Even Lord Saint Yang's own face shifted repeatedly.
They all recognized this token. It was the Great Sun Radiance Decree of the Nine Heavens Immortal Path.
Do not underestimate this Great Sun Radiance Decree. This was the supreme token of the Nine Heavens Immortal Path. Holding the Great Sun Radiance Decree was akin to the Nine Heavens arriving in person. It elevated one's rank by three levels before any official. Whether you were the ruler of an Immortal Dynasty or the ruler of a Heavenly Domain, even an immortal residing in the Nine Heavens, upon seeing this Great Sun Radiance Decree, had only the qualification to kneel and bow.
Lord Saint Yang and the others stood frozen, as if unable to believe it.
There had always been legends that Mo Ruyi, the new ruler of the Primordial World's Immortal Dynasty, had an extraordinary, profound, and unfathomable origin.
No one had ever imagined her strength to be so high, that the might of a single shout could shake a Heavenly Domain law enforcement commander like Yan Ze until blood sprayed from his mouth and nose.
Even more unexpected was that she actually possessed the Great Sun Radiance Decree representing the Nine Heavens Immortal Path.
This couldn't help but make people wonder: just who was Mo Ruyi? Why did she possess the Great Sun Radiance Decree?
They did not know.
No one knew.
At this moment, there was no time for them to ponder further. Everyone present, from the Heavenly Domain Immortal Officials above to the watching crowd of immortals below, all knelt down in worship.
Lord Saint Yang's aged face was ashen, as unsightly as could be. Although unwilling in his heart, he had no choice but to kneel and bow like the others.
"Lord Saint Yang, take the Heavenly Domain Immortal Officials of the Immortal Court Residence and leave the Primordial World immediately."
Lord Saint Yang was extremely unwilling in his heart. He raised his head, about to speak, when Mo Ruyi suddenly shouted sharply, "I hold the Great Sun Radiance Decree, which is as if the Nine Heavens Immortal Path has arrived in person. My words are as the decree of the Nine Heavens. Do you dare disobey!"
Lord Saint Yang knelt in the air, his face unsightly beyond description. Gnashing his teeth, clenching his fists tightly, trembling all over with rage, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and spoke word by word, "This old servant receives the decree. I dare not disobey!"
