Chapter 1479: Chapter 521: Trivial Matters as Weighty as a Mountain (Part 2)

...

Buddha Country.

"Ji Jingqiu, where is your current winning move?"

Wuzhou calmly said,

"On the Other Shore? Or competing with Dou Mu for control of the Investiture of the Gods? If it’s the latter, then the core lies at the end of the Returning to Truth Road, that existence?"

"Dou Mu wasn’t wrong in saying that you’re not capable of saving all beings under the Heavenly Court’s jurisdiction. It would be better to make some choices."

The Moon-cutting Sword Light sighed and said, "Jing Qiu is already on the fire, this is the downside of relying on others for Dao Fruit, he basically has no chance to retreat."

"Retreating this step means falling with Dao extinguishing, so even if you have to force it, you must hold out to the death!"

"Jing Qiu, you must find the key to breaking the situation quickly!"

Ji Jingqiu remained silent, the prayers of countless beings across various realms came to his ears at this moment, "endlessly."

It wasn’t that he wanted to stand on tiptoe to hold, but because he was the highest in the Sea of Realms right now, so he could only stand tall.

On the mountain top and at the cliff’s edge, Hel stood with her back to Wuzhou and the sword light, looking up quietly at Ji Jingqiu.

She knew something that the Moon-cutting Sword Light didn’t know, something that Wuzhou probably didn’t know, or even if he knew, wouldn’t care about... a small matter.

During the time when Ji Jingqiu had not yet stepped into Martial Arts and was still fighting against the Evil Poison Disease in his youth, he was once coaxed by several elders to worship gods.

They said as long as you sincerely worshiped the gods, you might receive divine help to eliminate the disease and disaster. Because of this, young Jingqiu believed in the gods for quite some time.

Unfortunately, the gods did not save him.

They didn’t even respond to him.

At this moment, Hel suddenly recalled a past conversation.

——Ji Jingqiu, do you really want to become a Buddha?

——In this world, there is no World Venerable, worshiping Buddha is worshiping oneself.

Hel lowered her head, her eyebrows lowered, hiding the pure golden color in her eyes.

Ji Jingqiu...

Since there are no gods and Buddhas in this world.

The gods and Buddhas have never responded to you either.

Then what are you doing now?

Why respond to the All Spirits within those 107 realms that have nothing to do with you? 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

...

Under the rule of the Heavenly Court, the 47th realm.

Ever since this place was occupied by the Heavenly Court, Mayfly Palace became a thing of the past. All members of Mayfly Palace, who didn’t die or escape, were incorporated as affiliated forces of the Heavenly Court.

And the once Fuyou Realm was given a cold, numerical designation.

At this moment, in the crisis of all houses, the former Fuyou Realm is no exception. Natural disasters descend, the Dao is under pressure, and the remaining strong ones above the Eight Realms are suppressed by the Heavenly Court’s forces, unable to come out to "save the world."

On this day, the former Vice Palace Master of Mayfly Palace, Heavenly Dome Taoist, hurried to the entrance of the cave where Ji Tianxing was secluding himself from the world.

Even though Mayfly Palace had fallen, Ji Tianxing went against the tide. In his view, there was no safe place in the Sea of Realms right now. Instead, under the Heavenly Court’s rule, it was possible to create a strategy of hiding in plain sight.

"Ji Tianxing, how much longer until Ji Linyuan can decide victory or defeat with Taiyi?"

The Heavenly Dome Taoist came rushing forward.

He had witnessed the fall of Mayfly Palace with his own eyes, and the Master of Harmonization of One Realm was also suppressed and imprisoned by the Heavenly Court using Secret Technique, becoming the foundation of the Heavenly Court.

Ultimately, on Ji Tianxing’s suggestion, he stood out proactively, bearing the name of a traitor, giving the Fuyou Realm a chance to breathe and avoiding further casualties.

Over these years, he had also been helping to conceal Ji Tianxing’s whereabouts.

Ji Tianxing gazed into the distance, deducing in his mind how long the realm of Fuyou Realm could barely hold on before the Dao would collapse due to the current pressure of the Dao.

Such a rebellion occurring suddenly could only indicate one thing...

"The Heavenly Court has turned against Buddhism."

Ji Tianxing murmured softly,

"I overestimated the Heavenly Court’s control over Buddhism. Buddhism has grown into a towering tree that can’t be easily pulled out. Even that Heavenly Emperor couldn’t directly strip Ji Jingqiu of the Buddha Master’s position and could only use this method to weaken him, letting him bear the backlash of all spirits?"

"How incorrect is your calculation!" the Heavenly Dome Taoist suddenly sneered, eyes filled with mockery, saying, "Judging from the current situation, that World Venerable has clearly defected, being suppressed by the Heavenly Court, implicating our realm as well!"

Ji Tianxing sighed, his gaze deepened: "This is the best outcome, at least it can buy us more time."

The Heavenly Dome Taoist looked toward the cave behind him and said in a deep voice: "How much longer will the divine conflict between Ji Linyuan and Taiyi last?"

"I’m afraid it will last much longer than we anticipated."

Ji Tianxing shook his head and finally sighed,

"The Dao is currently limited in these heavens and earth, and reaching the True Saint Peak is already the limit for all spirits. To take that next step, one must bear the pressure of the Dao in the Sea of Realms, the situation is worse than we expected."

The Heavenly Dome Taoist took a deep breath and said:

"If this continues, even if Ji Linyuan and Taiyi decide a winner, and someone attains Transcendence, I fear before that, the person from the Heavenly Court will have already broken through to Transcendence!"

"By then, with the Investiture of the Gods blessing him, how much chance does Ji Linyuan or Taiyi have?"

Ji Tianxing was silent, indeed it was so, but this was already their best and safest choice.

The Heavenly Dome Taoist suddenly proposed a hypothesis: "What if you and I had fully supported that World Venerable from the start..."

Ji Tianxing shook his head, interrupting him: "We couldn’t fully support his Enlightenment, he is not like Taiyi and Ji Linyuan, who have divided God and men, have an established path, and deep accumulation. The most crucial is his choice made him too ’conspicuous’, already becoming one of the focal points of all sides!"

The Heavenly Dome Taoist showed signs of fatigue:

"The Fuyou Realm’s creatures have already lost forty percent of their numbers until now!"

"In the face of this current natural disaster, the Heavenly Court doesn’t allow us to step in to save the world. If not for that World Venerable’s efforts to protect us, who knows how much more of the Fuyou Realm’s creatures would be lost."
