Is it because Hongjun's influence on the Heavenly Dao has become negligible?
Hongjun didn't achieve Hedao, and the Hongjun Evil Corpse was suppressed by Laozi, so the Heavenly Dao began to 'mature' early?
Li Ping'an looked at Laozi, who nodded with a smile.
Laozi said warmly, "Now the Six Saints are no more than Saints of the Heavenly Dao, and the Infant Spirit born from the Heavenly Dao itself is inherently a Saint, surpassing all other Saints. This time, it is also the one pushing the Heavenly Calamity to fall, suppressing the power of living beings."
Li Ping'an: ...
Innate Sacred Body, Heavenly Dao Infant Spirit!
"I understand. Suppressing the power of living beings, reducing the number of powerful beings, is to let the spiritual power fixed within them return to heaven and earth, for it to use."
"Indeed," Laozi sighed softly, "I have yet to discuss this Infant Spirit matter with the other Saints and am contemplating how to handle it."
Li Ping'an muttered, "Seal it."
