Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1133 - 404: Pursuit and Counter-Surrounding (Part 3)

"Are they one of our people?"

He secretly speculated, given that he had little contact with powerful figures from other realms, and it didn't make sense for them to find him.

The more likely possibility was that it was someone from their side.

"Did you see clearly?" Ji Jingqiu asked the Sword Light brother on his shoulder.

He navigated the Tao Boat, initially aiming for the distant flowing Red Mist, but halted midway.

Sword Light brother, who had originally urged him to hurry and obtain the realm-source level Dao Rhyme to enhance Daoist skills, stopped midway, exhibiting an extremely serious demeanor.

Then, he proactively emerged from the Inner Heaven and Earth, hovering around Ji Jingqiu.

"Don't rush, I need to look again..."

The Sword Light buzzed with resonance, uncommonly serious, even more so than when facing the Sword Qi of the Death Demon.

It explained, "The far-off sight in your eyes and what I perceive differs. In your view, it's a treasure land with flowing Red Mist and converging Dao Rhyme, but in mine, it's unknown. For an existence of my level, the unknown is the most terrifying."

Ji Jingqiu wanted to ask, where did you get eyes?

He didn't idle either, asking Lady La and Wuzhou in the Inner World if they noticed anything.

"We observe the world through your eyes. If you can't see, neither can we," Wuzhou casually replied.

Ji Jingqiu frowned, what did Sword Light brother see?

Seeing no movement for a long time, Ji Jingqiu directly asked.

"...A figure."

The Sword Light flickered, transmitting sound with great gravity,

"I see a figure that seems to have existed since ancient times, misty yet real, blocking between time and fate, like a great mountain forcing both to change course."

Ji Jingqiu realized something, something that made Sword Light so solemn was likely beyond merely a True Saint.

"Is it Chao Ge?" He tentatively asked.

Sword Light paused briefly, "Maybe, the distance is too far. I cannot see clearly. You decide whether to advance in that direction."

Ji Jingqiu did not immediately answer. He gazed at the starry sky, filled with hidden scriptures.

These scriptures elucidated the profound truths of Dao and guided the direction.

The source lay in the distant flowing Red Mist.

Ji Jingqiu maneuvered the Tao Boat, continuing the journey.

But compared to earlier, he was significantly more prudent, wary of potential danger.

"Did Chao Ge hide all the Great Dao Scriptures amidst the starry sky and all things in this Earth Territory?"

On the way, as he read through thousands of scriptures, Ji Jingqiu couldn't help but marvel.

These scriptures were immensely beneficial to him, containing various Divine Skills and Methods.

Yet, he didn't delve into those Divine Skills, understanding the wisdom in not overreaching, only capturing the True Meaning of Dao.

It was only at this moment that Ji Jingqiu truly grasped a saying from Master Mu and Master He in the past:

All divine transformations are merely means, ultimate Unity leads to Origin.

Upon sensing an anomaly in his Karma line, Ji Jingqiu soon discovered someone approaching him ahead.

Considering the battlefield's uniqueness, Ji Jingqiu prepared for combat.

"Speaking of which, doesn't killing others here allow the extraction of Dao Rhyme from them?"

Ji Jingqiu recalled killing two Heavenly Kings earlier, yet hadn't "gained" anything.

Might this be the price for seeing the Great Dao Scriptures within Heaven and Earth?

At this moment, several figures approached from afar, led by a woman in black armor, legs straight with outstanding beauty.

After scrutinizing Ji Jingqiu, the woman frowned slightly, feeling it didn't match the portrait she had seen.

But the bloodline token from the Gate wouldn't be wrong.

It must be disguise technique then, even elusive to someone specifically trained in Pupil Skill. Quite skilled.

Musing briefly, the woman spoke up:

"Are you Ji Linyuan? Come with us, Luo Sheng Heavenly Monarch wishes to see you."

Ji Jingqiu was taken aback, then showed a peculiar expression.

Ji Linyuan?

Were they seeking his grandfather?

Seeing Ji Jingqiu remain unresponsive, the woman reprimanded curtly, "Luo Sheng Heavenly Monarch is giving you a chance, don't fail to recognize it! A person can temporarily stand wrong but not perpetually stand wrong, the Wuzhou lineage is destined to be swept away by the tide of the era!"

Ji Jingqiu mused.

Is Grandfather in Mayfly Palace, part of the Wuzhou lineage?

Such Transcendence Gates like [Mayfly Palace] are akin to collective entities within their realm, all True Saints align to one Gate, each performs Opening Veins.

From what she said, Grandfather might not be well-behaved, he seems to have caused issues and provoked many enemies.

As Ji Jingqiu showed no reaction, the woman's expression turned colder.

Behind her in the Void, faint firelight appeared, shaped like a spiderweb, manifesting a Dao net. She coldly said, "Last warning, leave with us."

"Oh?" Ji Jingqiu murmured softly, sensing the aura akin to Silent Annihilation from the web behind her.

Indeed, the world is vast and full of mysteries; the Heavenly King class is truly unpredictable.

In the next moment, Ji Jingqiu moved actively, reaching to enfold all of them within his grasp, intending to subdue them into Inner Heaven.

Endless firelight soared, seemingly Radiant, but its core embraced the Silent Annihilation Dao.

The woman fiercely exclaimed, "Indeed, as rumored, you know no rules; today I'll teach you a lesson in humanity!"

Ji Jingqiu narrowed his eyes slightly, displeased.

"Fond of playing with fire? Let me teach you then." Ji Jingqiu's gaze pierced the soul, amidst the dark backdrop of deep space, swathes of fire light ignited, the glaring patterns of Dao soared up at this moment.

"Great Dao Scripture?!" The woman's pupils constricted, recognizing the firelight ignited by him as the various Great Dao Scriptures they sought fiercely till now!

Before her greed could manifest, the fire had already neared them.

It was only now that the woman and those behind her realized they couldn't extinguish this fire!
