Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1038 - 373: Clash Between the Newborn and the Old Generation (Part 3)

Since the battle twenty years ago, the Yanhuang Federation has been thoroughly investigated by various parties, even down to the underwear, with Ji Jingqiu naturally among them.

Many strong figures believe these three paths are the most likely routes for Ji Jingqiu to pursue.

Back then, when Ji Jingqiu revealed the Karma Path he had opened up, many strong figures thought he had already advanced to Heavenly King.

But it was later proven that Ji Jingqiu didn't choose the Karma Path as the foundational path for being a Heavenly King.

"The main body is preparing to open the way ahead." The No Heaven clarified, "Open the Heaven's path."

Regarding the first statement, Shouzhen's expression remained as usual, even considered it natural, but the second statement made his face change dramatically.

He stared tightly at the Daoist No Heaven, speaking in a deep voice:

"Say it again!"

"The main body opened a step between Sitting Forget and Fetal Breathing, allowing the Heavenly Person to achieve more Perfect breakthroughs to Heavenly King, this layer of Spiritual Cultivation can support the Illusion Dao of the Heavenly King, no longer needing Harmonization of One Realm for nourishment."

Upon hearing this, Shouzhen suddenly stood up.

"A realm was newly opened between Fetal Breathing and Sitting Forget?" Shouzhen murmured, looking at No Heaven, "Is there a name for it yet?"

"[Defend Void Silence]."

"Defend Void Silence... Only Tao Gather Void, silently guarding one's heart?"

With Shouzhen's Daoist experience, just hearing Ji Jingqiu's naming of this realm gave him a vague insight into the true meaning.

And if what No Heaven just said is true, the configuration of Three Thousand Yanfu will change considerably.

In the past, because of the need for Harmonization of One Realm for nourishment, most Heavenly Kings were born among major forces.

Even internally, the Heavenly King positions were not enough to distribute, leaving many Heavenly Person Perfects stuck before the Heavenly King despite having potential for breakthrough.

Even with forced breakthroughs, without a realm to shelter, there was no room for upgrading, facing disasters instead.

If Ji Jingqiu opens a spiritual realm that lets Heavenly Kings break free of 'Chains,' the number of Heavenly Kings, if not skyrocketing, could increase by at least twenty to thirty percent.

And the upcoming war...

Shouzhen suddenly asked, "How many Heavenly Person Perfects from Mysterious Mechanism Heaven and All Phenomena Divine Country are there to coordinate with your main body opening the way?"

"Mysterious Mechanism Heaven has seven Heavenly Person Perfects who have already grasped the true meaning of [Defend Void Silence], All Phenomena Divine Country has fewer, only four, eleven in total have hope of advancing to Heavenly King by entering [Defend Void Silence]."

Shouzhen nodded and said, "Let Wujiao select the Heavenly Person Perfects from your sect, choose those with clean backgrounds, let them follow you to comprehend the true meaning of this realm—can Heavenly Kings also understand?"

"Naturally, they can."

Shouzhen nodded, "Let those Heavenly Kings who have not yet broken through Sitting Forget in the sect prepare."

No Heaven showed a strange expression and said, "Isn't the Ancestor Master being a bit too decisive?"

Shouzhen laughed, "Isn't this the purpose of your visit? You seem dissatisfied with how quickly I agreed to your request after meeting your needs."

No Heaven was speechless.

The main body, wanting to open the way in the world, must embed this realm into the base rules of the Great Universe.

To achieve this, the current realm of the main body is insufficient.

Theoretically, this is the step for Heavenly King to advance to Heavenly Venerable.

This step's difficulty could even be higher.

It is clearly impossible for the main body to wait for advancing to the peak of Heavenly King or even Heavenly Venerable to then plan to open the way.

Therefore, the best solution is [Preaching the World].

That is, letting more Martial Artists enter this step.

Especially those Heavenly Person Perfects, who comprehend the true meaning of [Defend Void Silence] in advance, upon advancing to Heavenly King and gaining Heaven and Earth recognition, will subtly embed this realm into the rules of Heaven and Earth.

Thus, making the main body's subsequent way opening much easier.

"I understand." Shouzhen nodded, already having related plans in mind, "If he truly has the ambition to become the contemporary Dao Ancestor, I will lend him a hand."

"Thank you, Ancestor Master."

Shouzhen finally reminded, "Tell Ji Jingqiu his breakthrough might trigger a contest among the strong ones, be prepared, at least connect well with one of the Five Pillars."

No Heaven thought, at the moment the most suitable would be that Saint King.

As for the other already returned Void Emperor...

This one seemingly is dissatisfied with the Yanhuang Federation having two Void Giant Beasts.

This one is the first Void Giant Beast born in the starry sky of the Great Universe, its true name is [Six Heavens Ancestor Dragon]. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

All future Void Giant Beasts can be traced to it as an origin.

...

...

On this day.

The twenty-year promise of peace offered by Mu Shitian had passed, reaching the agreed period.

The Great Universe thus entered its second awakening.

The Dao roared, the infinite vastness of the distant starry sky wilderness erupted with billions of rays of colorful light, flying various strange lights, with countless black holes subtly appearing among them.

Chanting voices, Zen hymns, sounds of gods and demons, Dao sounds, sounds of Heaven and Earth...

Every ancient sound engraved in history resonated, the boundless Chaos Qi surging.

Countless Martial Artists clearly sensed that an intangible chain above their heads was unlocked.

On this day.

All realm Heavenly Kings rushed into the Great Universe, diving deep into the starry sky, seeking opportunities from the Dao's awakening.

And at this moment, Ji Jingqiu who had long been prepared, entered the depths of the universe to Body Refine with various strange lights transformed by the Dao.

He sat in meditation deep in the starry sky, his eyes closed, his black hair scattered, becoming more dignified, his physique seemingly connected with Heaven and Earth, with countless rays circling around.

Within his body, where the Five Organs were located, the rays were most radiant, revealing an immortal breath, with a tendency to form a world.

In the depths of every Heaven and Earth, a Divine sits cross-legged.

The Five Heavens and Earth united, forming a clear world, within which a Divine Embryo was seemingly born, transformed into an indistinct majestic figure.

Around Ji Jingqiu, thirteen various shaped beings sat, centered around him.

These beings were all ones Ji Jingqiu saved from the Burial Sea.

Each, at their peak when alive, was at least at the position of Heavenly Person Perfect, some even Heavenly King, but now they had each fallen to Heavenly Person.

At this moment.

They were all forced into a state of enlightenment.

Each one was internally tense, wholeheartedly comprehending the essence Ji Jingqiu passed down, not daring any slack.

Simply because—

"I not only saved you, but will also teach you the Dao."

"But if you fail to meet my requirements, you will become the bait afterwards, with your past crimes entwined with karmic consequences, sufficient for me to gain in the Nether Sea."
