The Great Dao’s capabilities and strength were absolutely formidable.

Within ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍the Immortal Realm, it was the existence that governed everything. So-called immortals, or anything else, were merely toys within its deductions.

If ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍a freak like Li Tianwei had not appeared, then even after the entire Immortal Realm passed through countless Cosmic Eras, it might still never have detected the existence of the Great Dao.

Li ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍Tianwei watched as the System resisted it, while his own movements were not slow either. In an instant, he directly began acting.

As ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍a conceptual-level existence, judging from how the Great Dao had attacked Li Tianwei earlier and its current bombardment of information distortion, its methods of attack had already surpassed the Immortal Power used by immortals and reached an even higher dimension.

And ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍Li Tianwei did not know how to describe this kind of power either. Take that Immortal-Extermination Tribulation for example, it was clearly something that had never existed before, yet through the Great Dao’s deductions, it manifested and even appeared within the consciousness of countless living beings throughout the Immortal Realm.

“Refining the false into the real?”

Li Tianwei could not help thinking of this phrase, but it did not seem quite right either. Clearly, this was an entirely new form of energy, completely different from the power of the Immortal Realm.

Although he could not understand it, Li Tianwei still had a way to deal with it.

Since the concept of the Great Dao had already fully manifested, that meant it truly existed. Since it existed, then something could oppose it.

The System existed in the form of informational data, and even the Main System that controlled it wielded an entirely new kind of power.

However, unlike the Great Dao, it existed on another level, and could even extend and divide itself, obtaining the World’s Blessing to strengthen itself.

Yet there was also a difference between them, and that was that the Main System controlled things from an even higher external level.

The Great Dao existed merely within the Immortal Realm. As long as something was power, then its fundamental nature would not change too greatly. There had to be an enormous source of energy supporting it.

“Then where is your source!”

Thinking of this, Li Tianwei’s gaze immediately fell upon the surrounding curtains reflecting various regions of the Immortal Realm.

The existence of anything always had a reason. For example, earlier, the Great Dao had botched its attempt to attack him, which had given him the opportunity to trace a sliver of its existence, enter this place, and then the first thing he saw was this curtain reflecting the Immortal Realm.

“Existence itself has its reason.”

After thinking this, in Li Tianwei’s eyes, everything around him at this moment could possibly be an energy supply point for the Great Dao.

“Then destroying it will be enough.”

After making this judgment, Li Tianwei also made an extremely decisive choice.

The moment he finished thinking, Li Tianwei erupted instantly.

The collision with the Great Dao did not take place on the material level, but within the absolute distortion of all consciousness.

In an instant, Li Tianwei ignited the consciousness fragments he had previously projected throughout the Immortal Realm. Within the curtain ahead that reflected the Immortal Realm, specks of fire seemed to ignite.

Once the first spark appeared, in less than half a quarter-hour, sparks spread with the force of a prairie fire across the entire Immortal Realm.

After several decades of accumulation within the world of consciousness and continuous Consciousness Projection, Li Tianwei’s consciousness could be said to have spread throughout every region of the Immortal Realm.

Otherwise, he would never have been able to make the Immortal Heavenly Court and the Heaven-Sustaining Alliance collide simply by giving events a slight push.

As for why it had happened so quickly, Li Tianwei had merely used a few minor methods.

In the world he had once lived in, there had been research into this level of existence. Although they had not actually discovered much, they had still written papers on it and even categorized some of it under metaphysical explanations.

More importantly, when he had previously improved the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, he had specifically studied memetics and applied it to the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, making its spread extraordinarily effective.

So Li Tianwei naturally incorporated it into the consciousness he spread and projected outward.

It had to be said that this speed was simply terrifyingly fast.

Thus, as Li Tianwei’s consciousness continuously projected itself through memetic propagation, it had already spread across more than half of the Immortal Realm.

Now that it was ignited all at once, how spectacular would that be? The entire curtain reflecting everything in the Immortal Realm radiated the aura of the power Li Tianwei had projected outward.

In an instant, under the Great Dao’s perception, within the manifestations on the curtain, the Immortal Realm was filled with Li Tianwei’s aura, densely packed as though he intended to occupy the entire Immortal Realm.

The Great Dao seemingly had not expected such a change to occur and immediately became somewhat flustered.

But the Great Dao was ultimately not a living being and possessed no emotions whatsoever. Everything it did was solely for maximizing its own benefit.

What Li Tianwei was doing now clearly violated the Great Dao’s mode of operation, so this was unacceptable.

However, it was also exactly as Li Tianwei had thought.

Its energy did not come from nowhere either, and this energy came precisely from the Immortal Realm.

Of course, what the Great Dao harvested was not some particular thing from the Immortal Realm, but rather the energy released after it guided every transformation throughout the Immortal Realm.

In other words, as long as the Great Dao controlled and influenced the development of the Immortal Realm, it could obtain power from it.

It was precisely because of this that the entire Immortal Realm continuously cycled.

The method Li Tianwei was now using undoubtedly aimed to dismantle the order that it had created and arranged.

If that happened, the Great Dao could imagine just how much energy it would lose. The reason it had revealed itself before was also the same.

It needed to stabilize the Immortal Realm and make it follow the script it had arranged, then drive every existence in the Immortal Realm upward toward transcendence and into mutual conflict, thereby providing it with even more energy to sustain its own existence.

But after Li Tianwei’s repeated actions, this had effectively become plunder, so the Great Dao had revealed itself.

And now Li Tianwei was doing it again. How could the Great Dao tolerate this situation.

The formless conceptual existence known as the Great Dao merely exerted its power once and tore down the curtain that reflected everything.

If Li Tianwei had been outside this strange region and able to sense the Immortal Realm for a moment, he would have discovered that the Immortal Realm was currently flowing rapidly.

And this flow was not material movement either, but rather the time of the Immortal Realm being reversed for a moment through a strange method.

All of this happened merely because the Great Dao tore apart a single curtain capable of reflecting everything in the Immortal Realm, which showed the extent of the Great Dao’s power.

The experts within the Immortal Realm were not that weak either, and they also realized that something seemed wrong outside.

Unfortunately, faced with the difference in dimensional power, they still found it difficult to locate the source.

As for Li Tianwei, he ignited the consciousness bodies scattered across the Immortal Realm, occupying more than half of the Immortal Realm.

Through this ignition, it could be said that wherever the Immortal Realm existed, traces of Li Tianwei existed as well.

This was Li Tianwei’s quantitative tactic. Faced with the unknown and immense Great Dao, as long as his own quantification was sufficient, he could uncover the root of everything.

Because Li Tianwei occupied more regions of the Immortal Realm and controlled more information, the Great Dao suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.

It was as though something it possessed was being taken away by Li Tianwei.

And what the Great Dao possessed was absolute dominion over the Immortal Realm, allowing it to drive consciousness and influence the immortals of the Immortal Realm.

But now, because Li Tianwei had projected too much consciousness and achieved absolute quantification, it could be said that there were countless Li Tianweis throughout the Immortal Realm.

Precisely because of this, the Great Dao lost its dominant control over the Immortal Realm.

The reason was simple. There were so many Li Tianweis in the Immortal Realm, so why would any of those Li Tianweis listen to the Great Dao.

So! Li Tianwei could be said to be using this method to seize authority from the Great Dao.

And the method of seizing authority was to continuously create clones using his own identity, then have all of them vote for himself.

With an absolute quantity of Consciousness Projections, how could the Great Dao possibly have imagined that a living being could reach such a level.

In its eyes, the living beings of the Immortal Realm, no matter what they were, were not worth mentioning. The one truly controlling the Immortal Realm was itself.

Yet now, relying on Consciousness Projection, Li Tianwei had countless clones controlling various pivotal locations throughout the Immortal Realm, forcibly competing with the Great Dao for authority.

It made things seem as though the Great Dao itself was the existence violating the will of the Immortal Realm.

However, the path Li Tianwei had chosen was not wrong either. The existence of the Immortal Realm did not rely solely on the Great Dao to function.

If it truly relied on the Great Dao to function, then why would the Great Dao still need to control the operating order of the Immortal Realm and extract power from it!

That would violate basic logic. In Li Tianwei’s view, the Great Dao itself was violating logic.

On one hand, it harvested the power of countless living beings throughout the Immortal Realm and relied upon them, while on the other hand, it looked down upon them.

How could there be such a convenient arrangement? Since the Great Dao needed them, Li Tianwei could only strike at the root of it.

Return everything to all living beings, then use all living beings to counterattack.

“You, you……”

Seeing Li Tianwei behave like this, the Great Dao was actually shocked into speaking human language.

Because it possessed no form, the Great Dao’s voice seemed to carry endless echoes that reverberated throughout the surroundings.

Most importantly, the Great Dao felt that Li Tianwei’s root-digging behavior was shameless.

In its eyes, everything in the Immortal Realm belonged to it, and Li Tianwei’s behavior was completely the logic of a robber.

As for Li Tianwei, since he could perceive everything, how could he fail to understand what the Great Dao was thinking.

Who exactly was shameless was perfectly obvious. The Great Dao plundered from and manipulated everything in the Immortal Realm, taking from all living beings while simultaneously looking down upon them.

How shameless could a fellow like this be? It still held authority granted to it by all living beings, everything it possessed from head to toe had been given by all living beings, yet despite this, it turned around and looked down upon those very beings.

If the Great Dao had the possibility of producing descendants, then just how brutal would the entire Immortal Realm become.

Even after plundering everything, the Great Dao was still unsatisfied. It also wanted all living beings to fear it, worship it, and believe in it.

In Li Tianwei’s view, he was merely taking back the power that originally belonged to the living beings of the Immortal Realm.

They had the right to know everything.

Boom……

Thinking of this, Li Tianwei’s consciousness, which had ignited the sparks throughout the Immortal Realm, began spreading.

What was a meme? Replicability, simplicity, and ease of transmission.

Li Tianwei understood that relying solely on his divided consciousness would not allow him to completely occupy the Immortal Realm. Most importantly, he still needed to rely upon the living beings of the Immortal Realm.

Even though Li Tianwei’s consciousness had spread across more than half of the Immortal Realm, his Consciousness Projections were ultimately still fewer than the native living beings of the Immortal Realm.

Beyond that, the Immortal Realm also controlled the myriad worlds below.

With that comparison, even Li Tianwei’s Consciousness Projections spread throughout the Immortal Realm appeared insignificant.

However, with the existence of memetics, the moment Li Tianwei ignited his consciousness, it began spreading outward.

Li Tianwei’s memetic infection was also extremely simple and did not influence the consciousness of others.

All Li Tianwei did was allow the living beings of the Immortal Realm to reclaim the authority that had been plundered away by the Great Dao.

Li Tianwei did not believe that the Great Dao was truly omnipotent. Its source of power was precisely its weakness.

The Immortal Realm was currently controlled by the Great Dao only because the living beings of the Immortal Realm did not know that they themselves were also part of the Immortal Realm and possessed the right to participate in controlling it.

The meme Li Tianwei was now spreading merely informed them of this fact. You also had the right to choose the direction in which the Immortal Realm advanced. If that were not the case, then you would simply continue being driven by someone else just as you were now.

The sparks ignited by Li Tianwei floated in midair. As long as someone raised their head, they would see those burning sparks.

“What is that, fireflies?”

After seeing those ignited sparks, some people spoke with puzzled expressions.

But at that moment, they felt as though an additional piece of information had suddenly appeared within their minds.

“What is this, authority over the Immortal Realm, I have a share too? I’m just a mortal, I wouldn’t dare speak of immortals……”

“What is this, which Great Power’s method is this.”

“What is this thing, authority over the Immortal Realm, resist the Great Dao.”

From immortals above to mortals below, every living being possessing consciousness received this information.

Compared to those who knew nothing, Ancient Life of the Immortal Heavenly Court and certain ancestors of surviving factions shuddered when they saw the suddenly appearing sparks and the information transmitted within them.

“This this…… someone has already touched upon it?”

“He intends to open this confinement, which Cosmic Era does this existence come from.”

“I never expected such an existence to remain within the Immortal Realm, is he directly confronting the Great Dao?”

Ancient Life muttered silently upon seeing this situation.

At this moment, he could not help feeling that the choice he had made during the previous Cosmic Era had been incomparably correct.

And as the information transmitted by these sparks poured into the consciousness of the living beings of the Immortal Realm, under the influence of the meme, regardless of whether they ultimately chose to use this authority or not.

But as a human himself, Li Tianwei understood human curiosity best, and this trace of curiosity was precisely what Li Tianwei used to drive the meme.

And just as Li Tianwei had expected, it could be said that more than half of all people, driven by curiosity, could not help reaching out to the information regarding this authority. Since they chose to make contact with it, that meant they consented.

Li Tianwei did not need all living beings to choose between himself and the Great Dao. As long as they chose to make contact and reclaim their authority, they were taking power back from the Great Dao.

Very quickly, more and more people chose to make contact.

At this moment, the Great Dao also realized what Li Tianwei was doing.

“You will die, these are all mine……”

The Great Dao drove its power.

Even with the support of the power of the living beings of the Immortal Realm, the Great Dao had still existed through an unknown number of Cosmic Eras, nourished all this time without ever encountering an opponent. Who knew what level its accumulated energy had reached.

Boom……

In an instant, the Great Dao directly launched an offensive on the material level.

After all, on the level of consciousness, its power had been divided apart by Li Tianwei, but that did not matter. Its material power was still sufficient to overturn everything.

In the Great Dao’s eyes, as long as it eliminated Li Tianwei, this pest, it could make the living beings of the Immortal Realm return to the proper path.
