Though it was called a discussion of the Dao, it was, in truth, a test of strength. Naturally, this sort of contest would not cause destruction to the outside world.
At this moment, the Lord of Myriad Ancestors ignored the three powerhouses—Jiu Miao, Kong Le, and Yi Yuan—and launched an attack from the only vacancy available. It was not truly a vacancy, merely a spot occupied by a Seventh-Level Universe Ancestral God. Seeing the Lord of Myriad Ancestors attacking him, this Seventh-Level Universe Ancestral God went on full defensive alert. He knew he was no match for the Lord of Myriad Ancestors, but having never crossed paths with him before, he lacked understanding of the Lord's Dao. He decided to seize this opportunity to observe and learn.
The two armies clashed upon the Heaven and Earth Chessboard. The battle was intense, and the other Universe Ancestral Gods watched closely. Jiang Chen was among them, observing the combat. He had entered a state of "Free Dao" consciousness, where everything in the universe took on a substantive form in his eyes. He broke down the warriors and generals manifested by the Lord of Myriad Ancestors' Dao into their simplest, most basic inscriptions.
