They prey on all living beings, imprison cultivators, and monopolize opportunities, causing constant strife, frequent wars, and widening rifts in this world.
Such actions disrupt the balance of heaven and earth, disturb the laws of the heavens, exacerbate the cracks between the layers, and damage the vitality of all worlds.
This is a blatant act of disorder and defiance of the natural order. Why do you, as the guardian of order, turn a blind eye, ignore it, and never stop it?
His voice was firm and resonant, each word powerful and hitting the nail on the head.
This is David’s biggest question, and also the most absurd truth in the heavens at present.
David had always believed that each level of the Order had a prison. In the case of the 25th level, the seven major families called themselves the Guardians of Order in order to suppress other cultivators.
Why don’t those in power do anything about this blatant bullying?
Someone is impersonating someone, and the authorities aren’t doing anything about it?
Is it that they don’t care? Or that they dare not?
Faced with David’s stern questioning, the invisible aura surrounding the Order Keeper froze slightly, and the blurry figure seemed to show a barely perceptible fluctuation.
But only for a moment, and she returned to her cold and indifferent state, still not giving a direct response, only speaking in a perfunctory and indifferent tone:
“Family division, geopolitical disputes, and ethnic conflicts are all part of the internal cycle of this world and the karma that living beings create themselves. They are within the tolerance range of the order and do not require intervention.”
“But crossing boundaries, opening the gates of heaven, and tracing back to the ancient order are taboo acts that shake the foundation of the heavens and break the established rules. They are not within the scope of tolerance and must be prohibited.”
These two simple sentences completely expose the hypocrisy and double standards of the so-called order of the heavens.
The killing of living beings, the division of heaven and earth, the chaos in the mountains and rivers, and the tearing apart of the earth’s veins are all permissible internal cycles.
The cultivators’ pursuit of truth, breaking free from shackles, seeking the origin, and reshaping the Great Dao are forbidden and defy the heavens, and must be suppressed.
Absurd, ridiculous, and utterly hypocritical!
David sneered inwardly, no longer feeling any awe for this so-called guardian of order, only filled with doubt and contempt.
He was absolutely certain that the person before him was not a just and selfless guardian of the order of the heavens, but a puppet who clung to old rules, concealed the truth, and imprisoned all living beings, using a biased and double-standard false order to fool all living beings and imprison cultivators throughout the ages.
“I see.”
David slowly nodded, his eyes revealing a hidden coldness and a deep, thoughtful expression. His tone carried a chilling coolness and an all-knowing sarcasm: “The slaughter of living beings, the chaos within the world, and the collapse of order are all tolerable.”
Only by seeking truth to break the deadlock, defying the odds, and tracing back to the source can we show absolutely no leniency.
What you protect has never been the heavens and earth, nor the living beings of all realms, but merely your own predetermined order and eternal hegemony, right?
The Order remained noncommittal, unwilling to argue with David about right and wrong or explain the reasons. It still delivered its cold and rigid judgment: “That’s all I have to say. Immediately seal the fragments of the Spirit Pivot, forget the secrets of the Tongtian Gate, and devote yourselves to repairing the cracks in the heavens and stabilizing the foundation of the world.”
“If anyone opens the Heavenly Gate again or violates the taboos, I will personally suppress and kill them without the need for a great calamity to descend upon the heavens.”
The words fell, devoid of any emotion, a pure warning of rules, cold and domineering.
Immediately afterwards, the Order Keeper raised his hand and gently waved it.
Buzz—!!!
An invisible, intangible, and irresistible force of order suddenly enveloped the entire sky, forcefully suppressing the primordial divine light of the fragments of the Heavenly Spiritual Pivot.
The once radiant and translucent fragments, adorned with patterns from all the heavens, instantly dimmed, their spiritual power sealed, and their Daoist charm silenced, as they were forcibly suppressed and sealed by a supreme power of rules.
The Tongtian Gate, deep within the Cangming Ancient Abyss, had its divine runes extinguished, its doors completely closed, and its restrictions solidified again. The forbidden zone, sealed for billions of years, returned to deathly silence, completely severing this opportunity to cross realms and reach the heavens.
The tremors of the Azure Water Spirit Ruins have been completely calmed, the reversed spiritual energy has returned to its normal course, and all things that were still have regained their vitality.
All the strange phenomena vanished, as if the ancient upheaval that had shaken the heavens and opened the gates of heaven had never happened at all.
Having done all this, the Order Keeper gave David one last indifferent glance, without saying another word. Its figure slowly faded into the gray-white chaos, disappearing silently and returning to the unknown depths of the gap between the heavens, vanishing without a trace.
