Ji Jingqiu nodded.
A Heavenly King Master may either open the Way and move forward or climb along the Dao, but both paths are inseparable from the word "Dao."
Above the Dharma lies the Grand Dao.
Therefore, in theory, Heavenly Kings have absolute dominance over Heavenly Persons; they are beings on entirely different levels.
This is the gap between the Grand Dao and the Dharma.
As Ji Jingqiu knows, even those who have inherited the Supreme Method and are already on the path of opening the Dao, the Heavenly Person Perfections, only have the ability to barely save their lives temporarily in front of the weakest Heavenly King.
The reason for "temporary" is because Heavenly Kings possess the power of being omnipresent, making it nearly impossible to escape from their grasp below the rank of Heavenly King.
Following a mystical intuition, Ji Jingqiu's spirit momentarily entered the Dharma Realm, merging with the Dao.
