Having successfully passed the Fourth Step of Taiyi Perfection, Zhang Jian prepared to forge ahead boldly and begin the Fifth Step of cultivation.
Heavenly Heart Returning to Dao requires establishing one's own path.
He takes the Earth Emperor Dao Fruit as his core, which has two main branches: Sheji Emperor's Authority and Jiuyou Emperor's Authority.
The Sheji path actually lies between the natural and the unnatural; it incorporates a part of the Authority of the Earth.
The Authority of the Earth is a natural authority, with no worries about path pollution.
As for the rituals and sovereign aspects involved, the Emperor Dao is mostly deep within the Three Emperors Celestial Realm, making it easier to strive for.
For Zhang Jian, the only trouble is the Jiuyou road.
Zhang Jian plans to first visit Taiyi the Celestial Lord of Salvation, then proceed to Pingxin Hall to visit the Earth Emperor and Houtu Deity.
