Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1294 - 458: Like a Mayfly Beholding the Blue Sky (Part 3)

"A person named Qian Wanqiu, whose whereabouts are mysterious, is difficult to trace even by other Transcenders; another one, like the Netherworld Lord, is only known by the Tao title, and no true name is spread, revered by all as the 'Void'."

Mu Chantian was solemn; the essence of the Sea of Realms is the Sea of Void, and this person can be honored with the title "Void," clearly demonstrating the reverence towards him from all sides.

"Remember, do not publicly recite their true names anywhere! It's best not even to directly call their Tao titles."

"Does 'Void' count as well?" Mu Chantian asked in surprise.

"Thinking about that person in your heart and reciting his Tao title might even provoke the crushing of his Dao!" Mu Jiu Zhou warned, "This person is neither good nor evil, acts only according to his will, and is one of the most unpredictable Transcenders."

"The Great Dao Ancestral Land in the eastern part of the Sea of Realms, which is about to be unsealed, is precisely his birthplace."

"Strictly speaking, these four are the Great Dao Ancestors known to my master, regarding whether there are other more ancient powerful figures, I am unclear."

Speaking of this, Mu Jiu Zhou seemed to recall something, his expression grew somewhat odd, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say it.

In fact, there should be one more—

World Venerable.

But not the ancestor of Mu Chantian, rather someone originating from a century prior...

Mu Jiu Zhou was somewhat lost in thought, he vaguely remembered that back then as a young man, he heard the unconquerable name represented by this title from his master and many senior brothers and sisters.

Even in the subsequent century, he often heard the name "World Venerable" repeatedly from his master.

Mu Chantian suddenly spoke, "Brother Mu, when I was reading the records, I discovered in the notes left by the predecessor Wuque, recorded that back then the 'World Venerable' finally went to the depths of the Other Shore, but the result was not recorded in the notes."

"The result of that battle back then..."

Mu Jiu Zhou fell silent.

The result of that battle, he also did not know, the master never mentioned it.

Even the master himself might not know the final outcome, as the master didn't accompany into the Other Shore to participate in the subsequent battle.

But Mu Jiu Zhou speculates, the master likely learned some parts of the truth through certain channels.

For as time went on, the master's obsession with that 'World Venerable' grew deeper, frequently visiting and consulting other Transcendent Ancestors.

Especially after the Ancestors reached a consensus to jointly explore the Path of Returning to Truth, the master's true essence departed, yet his obsession was strong enough to still wander the world.

Based on this point, Mu Jiu Zhou boldly speculated that the reason the Ancestors could reach an agreement might be related to that World Venerable and that battle.

"In this world, no one knows what really happened in that battle."

Mu Jiu Zhou slowly said,

"Only those who personally experienced it know the answer."

…

Great Thousand View.

"Disciple, Han Wansheng, pays respects to the temple master!"

A handsome, spirited young man in white stood outside the small building confidently.

The small building was no higher than three floors, with green tiles and white walls, eaves flying and curling, standing silently amidst the clouds and mist on the mountain, like a painting sketched in light ink.

A wooden plaque hung in front of the building, engraved with the words "Three Thousand," the strokes like knife and chisel marks, said to be written by the initial temple master after proving the Tao, after many decades, the Supreme Dao Rhyme still circulates.

Inside the building, there was no lamp or candle, yet light arose naturally. Looking closely, the light source was the scriptures floating on the walls.

"Come in." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

A peaceful voice came from inside the building.

Han Wansheng adjusted his attire, solemnly walked into the small building, ascending step by step, after climbing thirty-three steps, he arrived on the second floor, beneath his feet was boundless starry sky, vast Void.

On the futon ahead, sat a plain-looking figure.

It was the current sect leader temple master, Tian Cang.

Not long ago, this person personally ventured into the Netherworld but was repelled by hidden forces there, causing great commotion.

Tian Cang slowly spoke, "You have ascended to Heavenly Monarch, evolved into Hongmeng Opening Heaven, have the qualification to establish your own Dao Lineage, following the rules of the temple, you qualify to be listed as a direct disciple of the temple."

Han Wansheng's expression was solemn; most external forces only know their temple master as a Transcender who harmonized one realm, but do not know their Ancestor Master, who is also a truly Immortal Transcender!

Now that he has entered the ranks of top-tier Heavenly Monarchs, he finally qualifies to truly join under the Ancestor Master's tutelage.

"In recent days, have you studied the temple's rare collections, the ancestor's notes? I called you here today to enlighten you, and incidentally 'meet' certain existences, to avoid misunderstandings in the future."

Tian Cang spoke.

Han Wansheng's spirit lifted: "Temple master, where exactly did the ancestor master go? I heard rumors outside that the Ancestors are all on their way back, are they about to return?!"

"The ancestor master is indeed on the way back." Tian Cang said calmly, "As for where, naturally to the place of Returning to Truth."

"Place of Returning to Truth?"

Tian Cang rose, "Follow me."

Seeing the temple master heading to the third floor, Han Wansheng was excited internally; he had heard from several Uncle Masters before that the third floor was the place where the ancestor once secluded!

Tian Cang led Han Wansheng to the third floor; with each step upward, their surroundings grew lighter, until halfway up, he seemed ready to disperse into the Void like green smoke.

Tian Cang timely pressed his hand on his shoulder, stabilizing the signs of shaken Dao.

The third floor had neither table nor chairs, the dome painted with Celestial Stars, yet upon close inspection, it wasn't a fixed pattern, but contained the Great Thousand World within a small space.

"That is..." Han Wansheng's gaze fell on a painting upfront.

"This is a painting hand-drawn by the ancestor in past years, actually containing preserved Dao rhyme; rather than just being a painting, it is more like a time-waterflow picture, though not truly capturing that stretch of time, it's very close."

Tian Cang said,

"I brought you to see this painting firstly because you mentioned the place of Returning to Truth; secondly, as a core disciple of our Great Thousand View, you should have a preliminary understanding of the various ancestors throughout the Sea of Realms dynasties, to avoid being disrespectful when seeing the returning ancestors outside the realm in the future."
