Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree
Chapter 1343 - 474: Without Buddhism, Chaos in the Netherworld
Boom!
A storm of fierce waves sweeps across the vast universe, erupting violently, with a dazzling white light shining at its center.
Earth, fire, wind, and water run rampant, flowing and traversing between the clear and turbid Qi. Eventually, all six elements completely merge, with the source surging, flowing over the boundless universe, laying the foundation for the opening chaos of the vast cosmos.
Jing Qiu's eyes gleam like lightning, balancing the earth, fire, wind, and water with sword light, allowing them to collide and burst, evolving different Dharma, reminiscent of the beginning of the opening of Heaven and Earth.
When earth, fire, wind, and water appear, sweeping through the Heaven and Earth Universe, various "substances" are born, as if nurtured.
With a roar, infinite and endless newborn "substances" erupt like springwater, splashing into every corner of the universe.
When Jing Qiu was young, his biggest dream was to witness a neutron star explosion in faraway places, to see a "golden rain." After achieving some success in martial arts, he traveled across the sea and witnessed it firsthand.
At this moment, in the Inner Universe he personally created, millions of grander and more magnificent "golden rains" bloom within it, like a tribute to the creation of all things!
Centered around the stars of the Void Realm, the constant stars connect into galaxies, which evolve into river systems, each star seemingly reflecting a world of All Heavens.
All of this marks the transition of this universe from "nothing" to "existence."
Below, You Lan curiously looks out from the seawater, observing the changing scenery, feeling the new Dao Dharma establish itself like a warp and weft amidst the strong impact in this world.
Though immature, it is a scene of thriving vitality.
At this point, Jing Qiu begins to suppress the reopened earth, fire, wind, and water, transforming the evolution of this universe from "Creation Tribulation" to "Abode Tribulation."
The "calamity tribulation" belonging to the Heavenly Venerate also starts counting at this moment.
Boom!
When earth, fire, wind, and water completely calm down and return to their positions, Jing Qiu suddenly opens his eyes, with sun and moon suspended within, stars shining magnificently, each movement carrying the majestic and great power of the entire universe, naturally breeding an illusory cosmic scene around him.
Using his finger as a sword, he slashes forward.
In the dimness, it seems that the River of Destiny is pulled by him, its flowing speed subtly changing for a moment, causing the Karma Net to tremble!
Afterward, the entire River of Destiny begins to self-restoration.
However, this restoration is too fierce, like surging waves. Jing Qiu sits inside, with Green Master humming and automatically protecting its master.
At this step, he has completed the reconciliation of the Inner Universe and the reopening of earth, fire, wind, and water.
Jing Qiu examines his Inner Universe, feeling truly standing his ground in the Heavenly Venerate Realm.
"It's been only ten years, yet your earth, fire, wind, and water have been completely reset?"
Sword Light, just about to take a nap, hadn't even "closed its eyes" when it sensed the obvious change in Jing Qiu's aura and looked over in surprise.
Jing Qiu nodded, then murmured: "Can't see the way ahead."
At this moment, he seemed to have reached some Extreme Realm, unable to see any feasible path forward for a while.
Sword Light flickered uncertainly, the desire to complain growing stronger in its heart. This guy really is...
Ordinary Heavenly Venerates usually spend tens of thousands of years in peace to gain some Dao insight and find the way forward.
This guy, shortly after breaking into Heavenly Venerate, has reset earth, fire, wind, and water, and now, eager to lock onto the next breakthrough, hasn't even caught his breath?
"The Other Shore..."
After a long time, Jing Qiu regained his regular composure,
"Searching for the Other Shore's location is urgent!"
Sword Light remained silent.
"The Other Shore" mentioned by this guy, although not the "Great Freedom Dao Realm" of a Transcender, is still a marked domain.
Even among Transcenders, many comprehend the true Great Freedom Extreme Intent only after pursuing Enlightenment and Transcendence.
Honestly, it is not optimistic about Jing Qiu's so-called "seeing the Other Shore."
Because, as known now, only his two masters, Mu Shitian and He Donghuang have seen the Other Shore, which lacks proof.
Those who can attest to them truly achieving this realm are either dead or suppressed by the Federation, while even the All Saints in the Netherworld want to know what the Other Shore truly is.
When asked, Jing Qiu admitted he didn't know either; the Other Shore couldn't be described, seeing is believing.
Yes, this very much fits the essence of traditional Spiritual Cultivation—idealistic.
"Ji... Jing Qiu."
Sword Light paused, almost calling out the previous name "Ji."
"You have reached the Heavenly Venerate, so consider passing down your Dao Lineage. Establishing a sect and becoming a Dao Ancestor has always been the fastest way to achieve Dao Ancestor status."
Sword Light suggests that Jing Qiu take the "proper path." Having reached the Heavenly Venerate Domain, there is no shortcut to take.
"By the way..."
Touching on establishing a sect and becoming a Dao Ancestor, Sword Light suddenly asked,
"You found two True Saint Masters in your early years, yet neither passed down a complete Taoist Inheritance, allowing you to directly become an ancestor?"
"Your Master He practiced the way of breaking law with strength and transcending with power. Such individuals choosing solitude is not unexpected; rather, it is 'as it should be.'
"But your Master Mu... In your World Venerable Lineage, why is there no sect establishment?"
Sword Light swirled around Jing Qiu, radiant and majestic, all kinds of doubts culminated in the final question.
Arriving at the Eighth Realm Heavenly Venerate, passing down a Dao Lineage is also the accumulation of Daoist career for Heavenly Venerates.
Moreover, establishing a sect and becoming an ancestor has always been the fastest way to breakthrough to Dao Ancestor, as well as completing the accumulation of Karma Position in the Dao Ancestor stage, paving the fastest path towards True Saint.
Before this, the Eighth Realm had only Heavenly Venerates and Dao Ancestors but no True Saints.
