Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1034 - 372: The Distinction of Transcendence, Future Dao Ancestor_2

Fortunately, they managed to catch up with the Nether Sea invasion, and Wuzhou willingly threw himself into the Nether Sea, suppressing the resistance of Heaven and Earth, allowing the Nether Sea to corrode a realm.

In the end, the realm was destroyed, and he ended up with a fallen realm result; nine-tenths of the Daoist practices he had gained before were completely worn out, only then could he regain freedom.

According to Wuzhou, Taiyi was similar to him, yet more... free.

He voluntarily stepped down from the Transcendence Divine Throne, just to seek the true Great Freedom of the Transcendence Rank.

One could unite with a realm, but also be restricted by it.

According to Wuzhou, the more things taken from a realm, the deeper the involvement with that realm, and the latter would be even less likely to "let go" of someone.

In their eyes, Master He's proving the Dao with strength is precious due to its purity.

"Does true transcendence exist in the Sea of Realms?" Jing Qiu asked.

"Naturally, it exists." Taoist Bihai nodded, "In many realms, there are trails left by them and the Dao they passed down. The so-called Sea of Realms covenant was established by them."

"Where are they?" Jing Qiu inquired, "Is it possible to find their gate?"

"True transcendence cannot be sought." Taoist Bihai shook his head, "At this stage, it's only that they see the world, not the world seeking them."

"Perhaps at some time, in some place, the passerby you meet might be a manifestation or clone of their Dao."

"As for their gate..."

Taoist Bihai pondered for a moment, then said:

"Back when the Five Pillars ruled this realm, there were indeed those who claimed to be Transcendence disciples who came to visit, but exactly what they discussed is known only to them."

"Mayfly Palace?" Jing Qiu asked; he had already received a message from Ji Anquan.

Taoist Bihai shook his head:

"The 'Mayfly Palace' you speak of, I know of it. Though it's a Transcendence Dojo, it follows the path of a Lord of a Realm and cannot be considered a true Transcender."

"If you wish to join Mayfly Palace, you're better off staying within this realm, thoroughly digesting the inheritance of your two masters, and paving your own path. That holds far more hope for breakthrough into transcendence than joining their ranks."

Jing Qiu nodded, "Senior, do you know the Five Pillars' attitude towards these outer realm forces?"

Taoist Bihai chuckled slightly, "As I just said, in earlier years, a true Transcendence Gate came to visit the Five Pillars. What exactly was discussed is clear only to them, but I did hear a glimpse of the story, such as... that one wished to take the Five Pillars as disciples!"

Jing Qiu was stunned.

"The Five Pillars didn't agree, right?" Jing Qiu tried to confirm from his own perspective.

"Back then, the Five Pillars believed they all had the potential for transcendence; how could they join under another? Naturally, they refused."

"But what about now?"

Taoist Bihai suddenly became serious,

"I don't know if anyone would bow their head to obtain a possible 'transcendence path.'

Jing Qiu understood his meaning.

It seems that disputes within the Five Pillars would not be small.

Now, the power structure within their realm is roughly divided into different factions.

The core, naturally, is Daluo Heaven led by the Five Pillars.

Below that is the alliance of various realms led by the Yanhuang Federation.

One is led by several ancient dojos such as the Heavenly Saint Lake and Yin Yang Dao Palace.

The other is led by ancient dojos like the Five Virtues Palace, Phoenix Blood Palace, and Qingtian Temple.

One faction is the alliance led by the Yanhuang Federation, which covers the broadest forces but has the fewest True Saints.

Most True Saint Dojos now are just "empty shells."

And the Holy Temple where the elder in front belongs is part of the fourth allied force.

If a Transcendence force from the outer realm interferes, the situation will become more complicated.

But according to the attitude of Senior Bihai, those entities have intimidating names but are not enough to influence or interfere with the internal situation.

The true key still lies in the attitude of the Five Pillars.

Jing Qiu was deep in thought.

He heard that the True Saint Xuanji meant that the Divine Lord of the Saint King lineage wanted to summon him.

Not sure if it's related to Master Mu or the internal situation.

Taoist Bihai suddenly asked, "Did Mu Shitian or He Donghuang ever mention to you that our realm might have issues?"

Jing Qiu frowned and nodded, "Master Mu mentioned a few words to me."

Taoist Bihai said calmly, "Twenty years ago, Xi Yingzhen and I besieged the Spirit Body of Taiyi, but Taiyi lured us into the Time River."

Jing Qiu's eyes were serious. The Xi Yingzhen he spoke of was a True Saint of Order City, who also made a move in the Yanhuang disaster twenty years ago.

This person originally walked with people like Dao Yi, but ultimately took the initiative to intercept Taiyi's attack and pursued Taiyi with Taoist Bihai.

However, later Taiyi appeared within the Four Guardian Stars, and these two vanished without a trace.

"There, we saw something... troubling."

When saying this, the speaker paused as if looking for the right words, their expression mixed with a noticeable gloominess.

Finally, he sighed lightly, seemingly not wishing to pressure the young man; his words were plain yet carried a warning:

"Young man, seize the time to carve your path and elevate your realm. On the day you carve your path, I will assist you with a helping hand."

"This realm is bound to fall into chaos soon. The alliances of various factions foresee this day approaching. In this great disaster, even True Saints face the risk of falling."

"Your Yanhuang Federation may appear prosperous now, but is beset on all sides, fraught with dangers. Being too high-profile might not be a good thing."

Jing Qiu knew this well, and it was something Ji Anquan had been worrying about.

"What is the senior fishing for?" Jing Qiu glanced at Taoist Bihai's motionless fishing rod.
