Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1219 - 432: The Aspiration of [This Shore], Seclusion

This person seemed to be enraged to the extreme, barely able to suppress the blazing fury, and laughed in anger:

The rumbling sound shook Heaven and Earth, and even in such a situation, it still stirred the roar of the Dao, a true Daoist career unimaginable.

However, unexpectedly, this person's tone suddenly lowered:

"Ji boy, even if you anger me, what use is there? Do you think my enmity towards [This Shore] is heavier than my enmity towards your Federation?"

"How about this, you release me, and I will first join you in fighting against the forces of [This Shore], how about it?"

The sarcasm in these words was evident.

Ji Jingqiu laughed, "Senior speaks reasonably, when the forces of [This Shore] arrive, I will discuss the temporary alliance with you then."

Yan snorted coldly, "Soon, once that bunch of trash sets their sight on someone, they won't give up."

"Before that, I still need to use Senior's help to temper my Daoist path." Jing Qiu remarked, "This trip, responding to the Heaven and Earth's Killing Tribulation, is a chance to experience seniors' 'heroic deeds' of the past, benefiting greatly, yet worried that advancing too quickly might make the foundation unstable; after thinking it over, here is more reassuring."

This time, Yan did not respond, unwilling to engage with this merely eloquent junior, even the murderous intent within Heaven and Earth dispersed completely.

In the Inner World, Wuzhou absentmindedly said, "Yan is not a fool for you to toy with, this matter is not urgent; with a breakthrough, there will be opportunities to gain more information from Yan in the future."

Jing Qiu came before True Saint Qinglian, sat down in front of him, and communicated the events of this journey mind to mind.

Upon hearing the truth of Chaohua Realm's destruction and how Jing Qiu faced the Heaven and Earth's Killing Tribulation, cutting the Golden Body Dharma Form of Chao Ge in one sword...

Qinglian was momentarily lost.

He had heard much about the boundlessness of the Outer Realm but did not expect it to be so magnificent and perilous.

One misstep could lead to the destruction of an entire realm...

Qinglian sighed, "No wonder the Five Pillars insist on building Daluo Heaven to replace the Great Universe, perhaps they had been cautious for a long time. On our side, more than one or two harbor discord."

Jing Qiu's expression was solemn.

Even within the Realm Sea, the strength of the Netherworld is among the strongest, but the trouble lies in the Netherworld having no unified power, even within the Five Pillars, there are internal contradictions and conflicts of interest.

Once a faction willingly becomes a "guide" for the Outer Realm, it is truly indefensible.

"[This Shore]..."

Upon hearing Jing Qiu's description of [This Shore] and the recently born speculations, Qinglian suddenly fell silent.

"Senior, what's the matter?" Jing Qiu asked in surprise.

"I should have told you before—"

Qinglian said in a deep voice,

"At the birth of this realm, the Five Pillars and many Innate Divine Beings were born according to fate."

"That was a prehistoric time without ritual, without good and evil, without order, and without war. Everything 'followed the Tao.'"

"Until visitors from the Outer Realm found this realm's gate."

"They brought with them the methods of the Divine Dao, disrupting the order of this Heaven and Earth. Ultimately, the Five Pillars joined forces with many Innate Spiritual Beings to drive them out, laying down the earliest form of governance."

"These people were the first Outer Realm visitors to this realm."

Qinglian raised one finger.

Hearing this, Jing Qiu's expression changed slightly.

"These people are related to [This Shore]?!"

Qinglian shook his head and said quietly, "These people claimed to be of the 'Dao Ancestor Lineage.' I am not sure if they have any connection to [This Shore], but the second batch of Outer Realm visitors are very likely related to what you call [This Shore]."

"The second batch..."

Jing Qiu reminisced.

Relevant secrets were heard from Cang You after the manifestation of great entities during the last events at [Burial Sea].

The second batch of contactors traced back to the Middle Period of the Five Pillars' rule.

By this time, the Five Pillars had already sensed their own bottleneck and sought further advancement.

The contact from the second batch of Outer Realm people provided the Five Pillars and certain Innate Divine Beings with many Secret Techniques.

Among them, the [Eternal History] was one of the precious fragmented scriptures that the Five Pillars traded from the Outer Realm people.

According to Wuzhou's estimate, if the goal of [This Shore] is truly to push others toward Transcendence in order to validate their Method, then those who contacted the Netherworld as the second group... could indeed be members of [This Shore].

But...

Are these people not afraid of backlash?

Jing Qiu frowned; for instance, Chao Ge, if Chao Ge were to succeed in breakthrough, how could these people end well?

Unless, they are convinced that Chao Ge is destined to fail!

In that light—

Members of [This Shore] obviously behave differently, as the experiences of Chaohua Realm and the Netherworld, even that of the Death Demon, are entirely different. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Chaohua Realm's encounter was the most blunt and direct.

As for the first batch that ventured into the Netherworld, attempting their Transmission there...

"Dao Ancestor Lineage..." Jing Qiu's pupils shrank, "Could it be the Ancestors of the Dao?"

Not long ago, Qi Tian mentioned the "Ancestors of the Dao," which Jing Qiu paid particular attention to at the time.

This was because Chao Ge's last words to him before sending him into the Netherworld were to guard against the Ancestors of the Dao.

"The Five Pillars may have already speculated." Qinglian shook his head, "Those are not what you need to worry about now; your primary task is to enhance yourself swiftly."

Jing Qiu nodded, sighing, "Apart from [This Shore], there's also a [Dao Ancestor Lineage]. This Sea of Realms is indeed terrifyingly deep."

"Let alone the Sea of Realms, even our realm is the same." Qinglian sighed, "Take for instance the [Burial Sea] hidden enemy; the Five Pillars beforehand were just suspicious, not certain either."
