Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 605 - 602 Immortals are Selfish

The actions of the Four Generals of the Demon Family and Tathagata just now, along with the invocation of the Outer God in the True Realm, seemed to be the key to triggering the mechanism, for the sake of revealing this continent completely to everyone.

Lu Ren's gaze was as sharp as a torch, scanning the Nine Provinces of Huaxia below. After confirming that under the control of his Earth Path Principle and the suppression of Tuo'e Temple, there had been no impact, he managed to suppress the shock in his heart and observed this unimaginably vast continent.

Even the Great Sun, in front of this continent, seemed like just a white jade plate, truly like the mythical tales, with a round sky and a square earth, and the world without end.

The gravitational structure of the entire Solar System changed entirely with the appearance of this piece of Hantu, much like the ancient geocentric theory.

This region of the starry sky revolves around this world.

"I see, I see!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Ren, unable to suppress the shock in his heart, suddenly realized that the ancient so-called round sky and square earth, the vast Primordial Chaos was not non-existent but had been sealed away. The place where Earth resides on this piece of Hantu was just a tip of the iceberg, insignificant.

Lu Ren could even faintly see spaces beginning to overlap above and below this continent; under the True Eye, they were indeed the Kunlun Exotic Realm and the Underworld.

It seemed to truly form the Celestial Realm and the Netherworld, Celestial Beings, Yin and Yang, with all changes fully and unreservedly displayed before Lu Ren.

Now, Lu Ren's physique, as enormous as the stars, even seemed somewhat insignificant on this continent.

Tathagata laughed heartily, clapping his hands, exclaiming, "Marvelous, marvelous! The formation left by the Supreme Taoist retains its full power even to this day, truly astonishing."

Yang Jian, Nezha, and Sun Wukong exchanged blows and stood dumbfounded, watching this unimaginably vast Hantu reveal itself to everyone.

Nezha absentmindedly swung his Fire-tipped Spear, murmuring, "I thought I would never see this sight again in my lifetime."

Yang Jian's Celestial Eye opened and closed on his forehead, his expression full of reminiscence.

In Sun Wukong's eyes were countless memories, finally sighing, "I wonder if Old Sun's Huaguo Mountain is still the same?"

The Queen Mother of the West, who had been at the peak, wanting to contend with the Jade Emperor for life and death and forcefully condense the Earth Immortal Path Fruit, now gained a bit of clarity. She stared blankly at the Hantu in front of her, and the Heavenly Mirror in her hand finally ceased emitting fierce divine light.

The Jade Emperor secretly breathed a sigh of relief; this Queen Mother of the West was once a figure on par with him. When the Witch Race was annihilated by the Immortal Path's schemes, the Witch-born Queen Mother of the West played a considerable role. Her special status and formidable combat power were world-shattering; though she turned to practice the Immortal Path, her extremely powerful physique...

The Jade Emperor was confident that even if Monkey Sun focused solely on the Immortal Path of Body Refinement, he might be somewhat inferior.

"So, so much time has already passed."

With clarity returning to her eyes, the Queen Mother of the West softly murmured, and then suddenly her expression changed, first sinisterly glancing at Lu Ren, who stood silently in front of Earth.

Though she was in a deep slumber, oblivious to the outside world, the Queen Mother of the West could sense that the Ancestral Witch before her had indeed done something to her, but since it posed no threat to her life, she chose to continue her slumber to preserve her strength.

Lu Ren felt a bit tense under her gaze, but his demeanor remained calm, undisturbed by any outward expression, as some things were better left buried. If revealed, it would indeed be a relentless conflict.

Meanwhile, he breathed a sigh of relief inwardly. It seemed this Queen Mother of the West had truly fallen into the deepest of slumbers; if not for the Jade Emperor's presence stirring her awake, she might have continued slumbering.

The Queen Mother of the West then shifted her gaze towards Hantu, her eyes deep and tranquil, as an aura of nobility and authority gradually emanated from her.

Flashes of Clear Light then sparkled on her body, revealing garments of cloud-like elegance and a crown of splendor, her attire epitomizing grandeur.

Watching the various mythical characters of the Mythical Era reveal themselves, Lu Ren was filled with questions. Hantu was so vast—why did these people of the Mythical Era all shrink back to Earth, rather than lurking within Hantu?

Even the tomb-raiding leader Zhang Tongxuan excavated countless Immortal God's Tombs, yet the unearthed documents did not mention this at all, as though Hantu was a taboo.

Mentioning it even slightly would lead to major problems.

Thus, only in novellas and mythical tales could hints be found, but without tangible evidence, they were dismissed as exaggeration.

By this moment, the entire cosmic battlefield had already halted its fiery conflict. The Celestial Palace, which had been shaky, steadied in the starry sky under the manipulation of the Four Generals of the Demon Family.

Then they saw a mountain emerge from an unknown passage, illuminated with Buddha Light above and filled with a glow of gold, its size not much smaller than the Celestial Palace.

Above were countless palace buildings, vast and continuous, and numerous Golden Arhats sat in meditation, softly chanting Buddhist Scripture, causing Lu Ren to involuntarily take notice, as the dense Wish Power incense was generated, converging at the summit of Ling Mountain.

A closer look revealed that of those million Arhats, their Divine Sense had long been extinguished, reduced to mere flesh machines only capable of producing Wish Power.

Seeing this scene, Lu Ren felt shaken; such means, such coldness, were truly unimaginable.

Lu Ren slowly remarked, "Tathagata Buddha, what a means, using a million Arhats as the foundation to sustain Ling Mountain."

Tathagata's eyes lowered, indifferent, merely gazing calmly at Hantu, saying, "Ling Mountain cannot compare with the Celestial Palace, lacking essential materials for a self-sustaining cycle. This is a last resort, an act of helplessness."

"What a helpless act!"

Lu Ren observed, noting the array implicitly formed by the million Arhats, seated at strategic points on Ling Mountain to prevent even the slightest dissipation of Wish Power, and what made his anger boil was that among these million Arhats, outside a few demons, the vast majority were from the Human Race. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

This left him feeling utterly cold.

Perhaps these Arhats who entered the Buddhist Sect, in their lifetime for the sake of the Arhat Fruit Position, like the Dragon and Tiger of the Taoist Sect, recklessly used people for their practice method, only to find themselves forcibly transformed by Tathagata into mere flesh power supply devices.

Immortals are selfish!

Unaffected by external objects, seeking ultimate transcendence, to attain the Supreme Golden Immortal and the eternal, sole path, they would stop at nothing.

Murdering wives to verify the path, severing the mundane, betraying masters and ancestors might be common among them.

Seeing Lu Ren's cold demeanor, Tathagata couldn't help but say, "All things are illusory, only the self is true. Where the heart is, so is everything. Everything is but a personal demon, friend, you are caught up in appearances."

Lu Ren ignored Tathagata's words; what he implied merely argued the doctrine that if one's existence, the world exists too. If not, this world and cosmos might as well not exist.
