Daozi's "Immortal Heavenly Dao Body" acted, releasing thousands of threads of power of the Laws from his fingertips. They spread out, pierced the vacuum, infiltrated into the myriad practitioners in the universe, and locked onto all pre-identified targets!
"If Daozi really was the 'Ball Heavenly Dao'," the Dark Sun speculated, it might actually strike a chord and then agree to cooperate with its plan.
But he was not.
Moreover, the opposing powerhouse's trump card—that the Ninth Heavenly Dao was the turning point—had detonated at the wrong time!
Daozi was not the legitimate, procedurally inaugurated ruler of the Heavenly Dao; he was very clear about his own position.
On the surface, he indeed seemed like the ninth member to assume the 'Heavenly Dao' seat amongst the myriad practitioners across the universe. However, in truth, he wasn't of the ninth term but occupied the 8.5 term—a difference of 0.5, which completely changed the significance.
