Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1076 - 385: All Beings See Me, Thus See the Tathagata

Cangqing's eyes lowered slightly, as if unwilling to look.

In the great hall behind him, the Saint King was communicating with him through spiritual messages, questioning why he did not stop this boy's reckless act.

Heaven and Earth are the furnace, and the myriad Dao is the fire. This is the first trial for those who open the World.

This step is like refining true gold with fierce flames, those who pass will shine with golden light, those who fail will become ash.

Just this step, using Heaven and Earth as a furnace to temper the body, the Great Tripod to purify the Dao, is not something an ordinary Heavenly King can endure.

Not to mention the weight that Ji Jingqiu is bearing, adding the "weight" of the Ghost Sea on top of that.

The "great being" hidden in the depths of the Ghost Sea, though not yet awakened, moves almost instinctively, its will integrated with the Dao of the Ghost Sea.

"The Dao that Ji Jingqiu seeks to open likely clashes with the Ghost Sea, hence causing such a backlash. If you don't want him to die, stop him."

The Saint King warned the Lord of Cangqing.

Among the Saints present behind him, many were already impatient, just lacking a "leader."

"Saint King, the Ghost Sea revives, this child cannot be allowed to continue down this path."

The Moon God lightly parted her lips, treading on hazy moonlight, her figure swaying gracefully, her presence pure and transcendent, yet at this moment took the lead in attacking.

The Saint King frowned, for not long ago he had requested a few strands of essence moonlight from her, and it was not right to openly turn against her now.

"Opening the World..." An ancient Saint mused silently, drawing the attention of surrounding Saints.

This person from the Sanyuan Cave, usually low-key and without much presence, was an Ancient Saint of the same rank as Shouzhen and others, known as Lu Ya.

Saint Lu Ya spoke slowly, "For the world, this ought to be a good thing, but the Ghost Sea's stillness is not easily disturbed, best not to provoke it."

For a moment, many Saints echoed the words of these two.

One represented the Ancient Gods, and the other the latter True Saints, drawing many Saints to agree, reaching a consensus. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Not wishing for the Ghost Sea to awaken was a crucial factor among them.

Secondly, they coveted the path Ji Jingqiu currently walked.

The path of Opening the World could not lead them to transcendence, but it allowed the new Saints of future generations to rapidly accumulate Dao Power, rivaling the Ancient Saints, while the Ancient Saints saw hope for further advancement.

Even beings like Cangqing, the Saint King, who theoretically reached the Peak of Eighth Realm, could draw closer to the Origin of the Dao in this realm.

Subsequently, whether in battle or on the path of Harmonization of One Realm, they could gain significant support.

"If you want to die, you can go out and try."

A cold voice rang out, but it was not the Saint King, it was the Void Emperor.

The Moon God's eyebrows slightly furrowed; it was already astonishing that Ji Jingqiu could enlist Cangqing and the Saints to protect his path, thanks to the face of the previous World Venerable.

But why was the Void Emperor speaking up for him now?

Wasn't the Void Lineage at odds with the Yanhuang Federation?

Previously, the Void Lineage had expressed open dissatisfaction with the Yanhuang Federation for raising two Void Giant Beasts, and this attitude came directly from the Void Emperor himself.

Ancestor Bihai of the Holy Temple gave a fake smile:

"Little Three, I don't like what you said. The stillness of the Ghost Sea is a method of one's sect elders. If you keep letting your own disciples run rampant in the Great Universe, with or without him, the accumulated karma will surely drive the awakening of the Ghost Sea."

At first, the Saints didn't know who this was referring to.

But when they realized it was the True Saint Lu Ya of the Sanyuan Cave, they couldn't help but have strange expressions.

This detested and unlikable old thing still loves giving people nicknames...

An Ancient Saint familiar with Ancestor Bihai's style shook his head.

Yet a True Saint wore a serious expression, finding some truth in his words.

"Indeed, every sect should restrain its disciples," said the True Saint Xi Yingzhen coldly, who had previously cooperated with Bihai, "Even if it weren't today, the Ghost Sea is slowly awakening, and you all know the reasons in your hearts."

The Ancient God of the Nether Ruins Lineage, master of the Life Path, spoke expressionlessly: "Back then, the Great Universe sealed itself because frequent interactions between realms and excessive slaughter led to the worsening of the Spiritual Calamity, and even the Holy couldn't withstand it; are you trying to restore the old ways?"

The topic in the field immediately shifted to the recent unsealing of the Great Universe, Heavenly Kings entering the world, and sweeping on a large scale.

Since the appearance of the Ghost Sea, any large-scale chaos or negative spiritual trends could provoke a 'response' from the Ghost Sea, triggering a Spiritual Calamity.

And as the kings entered the Great Universe, recklessly, among them were those who caused the calamity of extermination. Although the Spiritual Calamities hadn't manifested immediately due to the Ghost Sea's dormancy, they all accumulated in the depths of the Ghost Sea.

Moreover, with the pressure of blood battles falling, these Heavenly Kings intensified their search for opportunities.

Some dojo disciples still acted restrained and moderate, but some truly became lawless.

And even the former, when encountering the subordinate of a hostile force, may not hold back.

As the Saints argued, the Saint King glanced at the Void Emperor surrounded by chaos.

Only he likely knew that this guy wasn't standing for Ji Jingqiu, but simply warning the Saints that if they weren't afraid of death, they could go out and try.

He communicated to Cangqing, puzzled over what this guy was hesitating about.

"Let's wait and see, this kid might... surprise us, I think he can endure through it." Cangqing replied in a deep voice.

Endure through it?

He didn't understand where Cangqing's confidence came from.

Under the overwhelming pressure of a force like the Ghost Sea, even he could be injured if careless.

If the Ghost Sea further awakened, he might have to avoid it temporarily based on the situation.

But from his understanding of Cangqing, these words shouldn't be baseless.

At that moment.

The sound of Dao's inquiry echoed throughout all realms, also reaching this hall, into the ears of all the Saints.
