"The Emperor of Heaven and the Empress of Earth were both known in the early and middle periods of the ancient times. They were both extraordinary figures who dominated the universe. The former left behind the Time Blade, and the latter left behind the Samsara Seal."

The Fifth Generation Xuannu whispered at this moment.

"There were sporadic records in the sect's classics. It is said that the core of the Heavenly Palace fell on Jade Emperor Mountain, and Jade Emperor Mountain got its name from this. The smoke and dust stirred up at that time covered the real world for seven days and seven nights. Even the great masters could not disperse it. It was almost like the end of an era."

When Wudai Xuannv was speaking, she was also staring at Su Daji with murderous intent in her heart.

Su Daji then spoke:
"The good friend of the owner of the Shanglou will show up at Yuhuang Mountain, so he will definitely be there as well!"

What she didn't say was that if Shang Yi didn't go, it would likely lead to huge changes in the history of the real world, and the Xuantian Sect might even disappear.

"This vixen..."

The Fifth Generation Xuan Nu lowered her head and brows, nestling in the arms of the Overlord.

The ship gradually went away and disappeared on the river.

……

Jade Emperor Mountain.

Shang Yi and his companions followed Ananda to the top of the mountain and heard him chant the Buddha's name:
"Namo our teacher Shakyamuni Buddha."

Then the gray-robed monk stepped into the air, walked down step by step on the invisible steps, and walked towards the depths of the sea of ​​clouds.

He didn't care about Shang Yi and others following him, as if they didn't exist.

Shang Yi did the same, following Ananda on the invisible steps. After walking for a while, the sea of ​​clouds in his eyes was rippling, and the scene he saw was no longer the same.

There were collapsed buildings and palaces, piles of debris and ruins like mountains, and a hall where sporadic traces of its existence could be seen but now only a vermilion gate stood.

An inexplicable sense of familiarity emerged in Shang Yi's heart. He seemed to see many illusory scenes appearing in his eyes. The hall that had long disappeared behind the vermilion gate seemed to still exist in the world, but it had transformed into a different form and had not really disappeared.

"Time Blade..."

Lin Yang suddenly understood.

The hall that disappeared behind the vermilion gate was the core of the Heavenly Palace. When the Heavenly Palace fell, the Emperor used the hall as one of the materials for refining the Time Sword.

Now it seems that the Core of Heaven has disappeared from the world along with the fall of Heaven and the collapse of the heavens. In fact, it has just become another form of the Time Sword. Even if we go back to the more distant past and come to a time point before Heaven fell, because the Core of Heaven has become the Time Sword at the 'current point', the Core of Heaven that we see will only be the historical imprint of the Time Sword.

Time flows around the vermilion gate and turns into gurgling water, which can shorten the lifespan of living beings and bury all things in the world.

After Ananda entered the ruins of the Heavenly Palace, he walked a little faster than before. He walked through the vermilion gate and stood quietly in front of the disappeared Heavenly Palace. The sorrow and compassion on his face became even more intense, as if he was sighing for the Heavenly Palace.

The time here became chaotic at this moment, and time formed a vortex, swirling around the outside of the gate.

At this time, the gate was vermilion, and a man was sitting below it, surrounded by time, wearing a wide robe with large sleeves, with a handsome face and a strange charm like a god or demon.

"Magic Master" Han Guang!
Meng Qi's eyes narrowed and his heart was filled with emotions.

"Hasn't he been killed by Brother Shang?"

No, Brother Shang didn't kill him directly at the beginning, but brought him to the Time Sword of the "Xuantian Sect" in Yuhuang Mountain. It was a bit strange at the time. Now it seems that Han Guang is a pawn of the "Emperor of Heaven", so he didn't kill him directly at the beginning and left him a glimmer of hope?
Inside the ruins of Heaven, the "Magic Master" Han Guang sat beneath the vermilion gate, his eyes half-open and half-closed, looking tall and majestic, just like the real Emperor of Heaven.

At this moment, he found that the gray-robed Ananda also stopped and, like Shusheng and Bi Jingxuan, turned his gaze to the magician.

That's not right. Ananda is just a brand. He responds differently according to the course of history. At this moment, when he sees a magician who does not belong to the original history, shouldn't he ignore him?

Or did he really encounter something here, or was the appearance of the magician here part of previous history?

Thinking of this, Meng Qi's head felt a little dizzy due to the speculation about cause and effect.

Suddenly, Han Guang opened his eyes, and it seemed as if there was a long illusory river flowing inside his eyes, slowing down the time around him.

He stood up slowly, which seemed very fast against the backdrop of the flow of time. In an instant he was standing, ignoring Meng Qi, Shu Sheng and Bi Jingxuan, and staring at Ananda in mid-air.

Snapped!
The waves were stirred into a vortex, and the surrounding space and time became chaotic. Even if a human immortal was trapped in it, his lifespan would be quickly consumed.

Han Guang took a step forward, opened his mouth, and said majestically:

"Why did you betray me?"

The voice was heavy yet light, like running water filled with the dust of time, completely different from the voice of the magician that Meng Qi knew!
This... could it be the voice of the Emperor of Heaven? Could it be that the magician was possessed by the Emperor of Heaven's obsession in the ruins of the Heavenly Palace? Meng Qi was shocked.

The leader of the Five Ancient Emperors, a great man who dominated the mythological era, actually still has some obsessions left?
Different from the doubts of Shusheng and Bi Jingxuan, Meng Qi knew clearly that the Emperor of Heaven was not asking Ananda, but asking the God of Thunder!

Ananda in the grey robe listened to the question quietly, and the sadness on his face suddenly disappeared. The feeling of being a great monk, a bodhisattva, or an arhat became faint, and it seemed that something in his body was released and revived because of this question.

He curled his lips and smiled softly:
"because……"

Before he finished speaking, he had already revealed the golden body of Ananda, and a huge glazed Buddha's palm stretched out. Layers of Buddha kingdoms descended and enveloped Han Guang.

The heaven and earth were shrouded by a dark gold glazed Buddha's palm, with golden lotus flowers blooming in all directions. Each flower was a world, each leaf was a universe, and they were filled with the three Buddhas, the Bodhisattvas of the heavens, and the Arhats of all directions, evolving into layers of pure land.

And at the core of the Pure Land, a dark-gold Buddha statue sits upright, with a pure lotus platform beneath his body, surrounded by Vajra Kings, a roc with spread wings above his head, and Buddha light like the moon behind his head, one wheel upon another, illuminating all the Pure Land. It is none other than the golden body of Ananda.

Ten thousand Buddhas pay homage to the Buddha, and together they overcome the evil and the stubborn. This palm falls down to suppress everything!
Meng Qi, who was outside the coverage of the Pure Land in his palm, sighed secretly. At this moment, Ananda was only at the peak level of a celestial being. As expected, when he could not let go of his obsession, his reincarnation method became weaker in each life, and the mark gradually dissipated. If he followed the instructions, he would only be at the level of a beginner in legend in this life, and it would be a luxury to achieve legend in the next life. Without reincarnation at the legendary level, the mark would completely collapse. No wonder Ananda released the remains of the Thunder God in this life, trying to raise a Thunder God fish, and then combine it with this Buddhist body to break through the boundaries.

Unfortunately, he was too weak and was killed by the Overlord. He forced himself to break free and planned to enter the legend with him in the future. After he had tried his best to force the Overlord to self-destruct, Ananda saw that the way forward was blocked and there was no hope of transcendence. He finally became completely possessed by the devil and reversed the Tathagata Palm, becoming the source of the great catastrophe in the Middle Ages.

"The sea of ​​suffering is boundless, but when you turn back, you will find the shore."

"Let the knife cut down and become a Buddha."

A grand and solemn voice echoed, and the glazed Buddha's palm fell with an unstoppable posture. Han Guang, who seemed to be possessed by the obsession of the Emperor of Heaven, suddenly took a step forward. His eyes became indifferent and majestic, like the master looking down at the long river of time, without favoritism, hatred, love, or indifference. A feeling of the greatest, strongest, vastest, and broadest nature rushed straight to the sky.

The clear sound of water splashed, and Han Guang had a long sword with radiant light in his hand. With this step he took, he slashed upwards!
A long illusory river then appeared, covering every corner of the world and submerging all the pure lands.

The Emperor of Heaven steps through time and dominates this life!
Meng Qi saw that the glazed Buddha's palm had lost its dark gold color, leaving only black and white. The Pure Land had lost its purity and became more solidified. The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas had fallen into stagnation and turned into ink paintings.

Boom!

The heaven and earth shook, the golden Po Luo and dim water light dissipated in all directions, and the aftermath swept across the ruins of the Heavenly Palace.

Watching the dead silence and frozen black and white spreading over, watching the golden Utsuro flowers carrying heavy pure lands flying around with an extremely heavy posture, Meng Qi's eyes dimly saw an ancient glazed lamp, and an illusory river surrounded him. The Lixian sword in his hand pierced out, splitting the waves and provoking the golden Utsuro, using the characteristics of the other shore and the Zhuxian sword technique to fight against the aftermath.

Bi Jingxuan glanced at Meng Qi, raised her right palm, and summoned the Hunyuan Golden Bowl surrounded by countless golden lights.

The golden bowl was hanging high in the sky, and a golden light shone through it, eliminating the aftermath around it. A tortoise shell also appeared on the head of the Sage of Numbers, and black and white light spots danced, interpreting the mysteries of heaven and earth, allowing him to always pass by the aftermath.

An illusory big bell appeared on the bodies of Shang Yi and Ruan Yushu, blocking the aftermath in front of the two of them. There were even two phantoms fighting on the big bell. Looking closely, they were Han Guang and Ananda, and their Taoist charm and legal principles were fully revealed.

Wow!

The sword light broke through the Pure Land, filled the Buddha Kingdom, and filled every corner of the Heavenly Palace ruins. Meng Qi felt as if he had stepped into the deep sea. The surroundings were dark and heavy, and he could vaguely see the shimmering light. He could only barely hold on and was unable to move freely.

Han Guang, who was possessed by the obsession of the Emperor of Heaven, actually reached the pinnacle of the celestial immortals?
This sword, "The Emperor of Heaven Steps on Time", is extremely powerful. Without the legendary realm or the characteristics of the other shore, the Zhuxian Sword Technique, the Wuji Seal and other time-related skills and peerless magic weapons, it is almost impossible to compete with it!

If Ananda was at his peak level, this would be a piece of cake. But now he might have to pay a price...

As Meng Qi had this thought, he suddenly realized that the "deep sea" around him was shaking violently, the solidified heaven and earth broke apart piece by piece, and a glazed Buddha's foot suddenly stretched out.

A huge and majestic dark-gold Buddha statue made seals with its hands and took steps forward, crushing the waves. Everything it touched became empty.

Matter is empty, earth, fire, wind and water are empty, everything is empty, it is all false!

The pale golden glazed Buddha light illuminated the ruins of the Heavenly Palace. As the Buddha statue moved forward, pieces of broken wood, pieces of rubble, and remains all lost their weight and floated up. Among them were three jade books that were shining brightly.

Looking at this scene that seemed like the Buddha's coming to the world in the mythical era, the Sage's expression suddenly changed, his lips moved, and he muttered to himself:
"Broken limbs, blood-stained pure land, the world is in ruins, corpses are everywhere, the cave is in ruins, the catastrophe begins, no one is spared..."

At this moment, attracted by the opportunity, he seemed to see the scene of the catastrophe that would take place ten or twenty thousand years later, and the ominous ending, and his tone was actually trembling.

Shang Yi turned his head to look at him and did not feel the correction of heaven and earth. It seemed that the Holy Sage had indeed first glimpsed the calamity of the Demon Buddha on Jade Emperor Mountain, and then verified it step by step, looking for a way to allow the Wang family to safely pass the calamity.

The remains of the Heavenly Palace seemed to have transformed into a Pure Land of Buddhism. Ananda, who appeared in a golden body and displayed the Tathagata Palm, put one hand together and reached out for the three jade books with his right hand.

At this moment, a ray of sword light cut out silently from the pale golden glass, ethereal and distant, eternally unchanging, extremely indifferent, and cut out like the washing of time.

Time is like a knife, each stroke accelerates the aging of people.

The hazy blade light slashed down, and the huge dark gold Buddha disappeared in an instant for thousands of years. It decayed from within, and its golden body was stained with decay.

If the sky had feelings, it would also grow old; if Buddha were present in the world, he would also become old!
Ananda suddenly sat down cross-legged, with his hands forming the Nirvana seal. Behind him, a withered and flourishing Bodhi tree covered the sky. He was neither alive nor not alive, neither dead nor not dead. The knife of time could no longer shake him.

Click!
The shining long sword chopped down on the withered Bodhi tree, inspiring endless sense of nirvana. A jade book was caught in it, first becoming mottled and then turning into ashes.

Boom!

The withered Bodhi tree collapsed and leaves fluttered down, obscuring the senses of Meng Qi and the others, who could only continue to resist the impact of the aftermath.

When all the leaves had fallen, Meng Qi saw Ananda holding a flower in one hand and the remaining two jade books in the other, which made Han Guang fall into enlightenment.

Ananda did not stop. His golden body turned into a glass light and he escaped directly from the ruins of heaven.

Upon seeing this, several saints exclaimed "Eh", and hurriedly chased after Ananda with the Luoshu on their heads, as if they wanted to figure out what the catastrophe scene they had just seen was all about.

At this moment, Han Guang's lofty and majestic aura like that of the Emperor of Heaven faded a lot, and his aura quickly receded, leaving only the level of an Earthly Immortal.

Under the light of the Time Knife, he disappeared from the sight of the world again.

After Han Guang disappeared, Shang Yi stepped forward and said to Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu:
"I am good at the way of time, and this place is the remains of the Heavenly Palace. I can temporarily transform into the Emperor of Heaven to lend a hand to the two of you and make you immortals."

Shang Yi's words left everyone in shock.

Even when the Nine Heavens were intact, the celestial beings were qualified to enter and leave the Nine Heavens, and they were no longer 'land' immortals. Even if there were hundreds or thousands of dharma bodies in the Middle Ages, there were less than fifty celestial beings.

"A celestial being who is good at the way of time can help a human immortal become a celestial being? And that gray-robed monk is the Thunder God of Heaven? Is he Ananda, one of the ten great disciples of the Buddha? Was that the stubborn obsession of the Emperor of Heaven just now? Judging from the relationship between the Thunder God and the Emperor of Heaven, there may be some secrets behind the fall of Heaven..."

Doubts arose one after another in Shu Sheng's mind.

The most shocking thing was, of course, that Ananda actually transcended the sea of ​​suffering, reached the other shore, and was suppressed by the Buddha himself.

"Then what we just saw is not..."

Just as the several saints were thinking, Shang Yi's body began to change, and his pure and free Dharma body transformed as well, and he actually became the body of the Heavenly Emperor. Shang Yi raised his hand, and the Time Knife in the gate fell into his hand. Thousands of colors gathered in his palm, and the light spread like water, covering Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu, distorting the time in their area and the outside world.

At the same time, Overlord and his entourage also arrived at the foot of Jade Emperor Mountain.

"The Sword of Time."

Overlord stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up into the depths of the sea of ​​clouds.

A mysterious feeling told him that his goal was in the vast sea of ​​clouds at Jade Emperor Mountain.

No one could notice that a hint of purple appeared on the sword at his waist, and there seemed to be endless divine thunder striking down from within, which then turned into a sea of ​​thunder, connecting the heavens and all realms. It was the source of all thunder.

Among them, some insignificant divine thunder was unleashed on the ruins of the Heavenly Palace.

"It seems you have noticed him."

Su Daji was smiling, she also understood that Overlord's Sword was a peerless divine weapon of the other shore level, and she knew that Meng Qi was her enemy rather than her friend, but Overlord's Sword would never give up maintaining this piece of history that was beneficial to itself and turn to kill her.

Besides, at the 'current node' she has only awakened to the Earth Immortal level. Even if, due to historical reasons, she can exert the great power that she should have in history in the Middle Ages, it is impossible to kill her here forcefully.

This will definitely arouse Overlord's suspicion, thus causing history to change drastically and usher in a new future that may be worse than the original history for Overlord Juedao.

"What I saw was not the reincarnation of the Worldly Free King Buddha, but the descendant of the Emperor of Heaven!"

The Overlord glanced at Su Daji and said.

"But it doesn't matter. He has been recognized by the Light Blade and is qualified to fight with me. Let's see whether the Light Blade left by the Emperor of Heaven is more powerful or the blade in my hand is sharper."

The Overlord stood at the foot of the mountain, but he felt like he was standing on the top of the mountain overlooking all living beings. In his sight there was only the vast sky and earth, and no one else.

I don't know how arrogant and confident he was to dare to compare the sharpness of the sword he forged with the sword left behind by a great man from the other side.

If Su Daji didn't know all about history, she would probably think he was a madman.

"Walk."

Overlord strode forward, heading toward the top of the mountain.

Su Daji followed and said:
"The Dharmakaya that Shang Yi cultivated is the Pure and Free Dharmakaya. The meaning of freedom is that it can change as one wishes. As long as one has enough understanding, it can also be transformed into the Dharmakaya of the Heavenly Emperor!" (End of this chapter)
