Each cave in the commercial building contains the beings who died at the end of an era. The separate halls may seem small, but they are infinitely vast, capable of accommodating the beings of an era without any pressure, and there are even countless empty spaces.

Upon hearing this, Shang Yi's eyes flickered slightly, as if he were filled with emotion, and he said:

“My path lies in all living beings and all spirits; it is both within and without. Once I am separated from all living beings and all spirits, my path will probably come to an end.”

"Saving them is also a way of saving myself."

Meng Qi only vaguely understood what Shang Yi was saying. Even though he was a being from the other side, he couldn't immediately discern the four words that Shang Yi had heavily edited.

To display one's divine power in front of others.

After a few breaths, Meng Qi seemed to sense something and said meaningfully, "Brother, you truly live up to your name of supreme benevolence and holiness."

He muttered to himself:

"He was just showing off, but he spoke so elegantly and righteously, almost fooling me."

Although he inwardly complained, Meng Qi found Shang Yi's actions more acceptable than the indifference of the Eternal Mother or the normal other shore beings.

The eldest brother is still the eldest brother. Even after reaching the other side, he hasn't changed and his original intention remains the same.

After the two talked for a while, Shang Yi suddenly said, "He has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Meng Qi smiled, took his leave, and departed.

Shang Yi continued to deduce the anticipated One Element Method.

The perfect fusion of 129,600 methods of the Other Shore, without any conflict between them, is an unimaginable feat for ordinary people. However, after a century of development, it is now nearing completion.

"Another hundred years will be enough."

Shang Yi thought to himself, his gaze wandering as he looked towards Jiu You.

……

The Nine Netherworld Black Prison.

The Demon Buddha walked through the gloomy and desolate Black Prison, watching the underworld officials who ignored his presence escort the souls away, and murmured, "Having devoured the Nine Netherworlds, I can return to the ranks of the ancients."

With the final calamity imminent, there are few, if any, ways to quickly increase one's strength in the afterlife.

As a true demon, the Demon Buddha, though unable to receive much blessing while in the Nine Netherworlds, can still recover to the rudimentary stage of the Dao Fruit by devouring the Nine Netherworlds. When the final calamity erupts, the Demon Buddha, as the embodiment of the end, will undoubtedly be pushed to the level of the oldest being by the great force, becoming a true demon of world destruction.

A mysterious and unusual phantom of the Reincarnation Seal hovered above the Demon Buddha's head, casting a hidden power to conceal its presence.

None of the pseudo-other shores of the Nine Netherworlds noticed that the Demon Buddha had actually descended.

"As long as we involve Him, the true Other Shore, those false Other Shores are nothing to fear..."

Just as the Demon Buddha's conspiracy against the Nine Netherworlds was about to unfold, His expression changed, and He looked at the figure in front of Him.

"Calm down?"

He was taken aback.

He immediately understood what had happened. After the Reincarnation Seal was lost, it was given to Ruan Yushu by Mo Xuan. After Ruan Yushu became the Other Shore, she became the Lady Pingxin in the Underworld.

Although he once possessed the Samsara Seal and could use it to unleash its hidden power, Pingxin possessed the Samsara Seal's true form and was naturally able to sense his presence.

Pingxin looked at the Demon Buddha, whose face had darkened slightly, and said calmly:
"Entering without permission is the act of a thief."

"You were once the Thunder God of Heaven and one of the Buddha's ten disciples. Don't you understand this principle?"

The Demon Buddha snorted lightly and said coldly, "Ridiculous."

Isn't it ridiculous to tell someone from the other side that you've entered uninvited?

Back then, all the heavens and myriad realms belonged to Him; where could He not go?
Seeing the Samsara Seal floating above Ruan Yushu's head, the Demon Buddha prepared to leave.

Now that this trip has been exposed, staying here would only bring disadvantages and no benefits. Last time, when Meng Qi escaped from the sea of ​​suffering, he still had to spend a lot of effort and rely on the secret arrangements left behind in the medieval times to leave.

If you get blocked again, it won't be so easy to leave unless you're decisive enough to give up some treasures that even the other side can't ignore, in order to create an opportunity.

The moment the demon Buddha's thought arose, he heard a familiar voice from behind him.

"Where do you want to go?"

Meng Qi said calmly.

After leaving the shopping mall, he went directly to the Nine Netherworld to wait for his prey. He had deduced that if the Demon Buddha wanted to recover his strength as soon as possible, he would have to devour the Nine Netherworld.

Now that he knows that the Demon Buddha is the reincarnation of the Jade Emperor's obsession, Meng Qi, as the Other Shore, naturally has to deduce all possibilities and try his best to take the initiative.

The only thing he hadn't expected was that the Demon Buddha would actually sneak into the Netherworld while he was openly heading to the merchant brothel.

"Meng Qi."

The Demon Buddha paused, turned around, and stared directly at the Heavenly Venerable whose head was suspended by a dark, precious light.

He said coldly, "The little fish of yesteryear has finally become a great scourge."

“If it weren’t for Yuanshi’s intervention, you would have died long ago.”

Although surrounded, He remained calm and composed.

"If you want me to stay, the two of you are not enough."

A hint of mockery flashed in his eyes. The Demon Buddha was full of confidence as he looked down at Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu.

The Immortal Realm and the Nine Netherworld are essentially the other shore, which means that it might take Shang Yi two or three moments to travel from the Shang Tower to the Black Prison of the Nine Netherworld.

Moreover, Shang Yi is now too strong. Having already reached the rudimentary stage of the Dao Fruit, he has the potential to compete for the Dao Fruit. No one will stand idly by and watch Shang Yi make his moves in all the heavens and myriad realms at will.

Otherwise, if Shang Yi were to use some unbelievable means to successfully reduce the void, it would pose a threat even to the Three Pure Ones.

If it were someone else from the other side who joined forces with Ruan Yushu to block Him, the Demon Buddha would still be somewhat wary. However, Meng Qi is really no threat to Him; at most, he would only expose a part of the plan in advance.

"is it?"

Ruan Yushu seemed to laugh. Just as the Demon Buddha felt a sense of unease, he felt a piercing pain in his back as something sharp pierced through his demonic armor.

Someone bypassed His senses and attacked Him!
There was not even the slightest sign before He was wounded, nor was this possibility present in any of the many futures He occupied.

"Those who are unfaithful and fickle, kill them!"

The lingering murmurs of hatred reached the Demon Buddha's ears, seemingly impossible to wash away even by the passage of time, causing the astonishment in His eyes to freeze.

Although the tone was indeed that of the Demon Emperor, how could the Demon Buddha have forgotten such a tone?

"Phoenix!"

Looking at the Demon Saint Spear bursting out from behind him, and feeling the transparent and invisible flames of destruction burning his own demonic body, the Demon Buddha was filled with doubt.

Why didn't Feng Xi, the demon saint who was infatuated with Him back then, perish?

It seemed to be telepathically connected with the Demon Buddha, sensing the Demon Buddha's doubts.

Beyond the Demon Emperor's Palace, separated by countless dimensions, a woman emerged from behind a white gauze curtain. Her beauty was beyond description, embodying all the goodness in the world. Her aura was slightly strange, like a drop of ink appearing on a blank sheet of paper.

Demon Emperor! Human Ancestor!
Feng Xi smiled, his eyes full of mockery and a hint of pleasure. He said, "When I was about to perish, I used my last bit of spiritual light to take the place of the Demon Queen, accepting her past, future and imprint, and becoming the product of her subtraction and emptiness."

Therefore, at this moment, He appears as the Demon King.

Only this strange feeling, which only those on the other side can perceive, can prove His true identity.

"Although you didn't reach the other shore back then, you possessed the Heavenly Dao Monster, the Reincarnation Seal, and perhaps other trump cards I didn't know about. I wasn't confident I could kill you with a single blow. So, I endured for countless ages, watching you reach the other shore, watching you rise, watching you live freely..."

"All the patience was for this strike, for this foolproof opportunity."

The Demon Saint seemed to have found someone to confide in, and in one breath recounted all the forbearance and scheming he had endured over the years.

"That time you lost the Heavenly Dao Monster, although you regained your freedom, you were no longer in the nascent stage of the Dao Fruit, and you no longer had the Reincarnation Seal. Under the combined encirclement of Pingxin and Su Meng, it would have been absolutely difficult for you to escape alive."

"Die." The Demon Saint's tone turned cold as he spoke, and the Demon Saint Spear he held trembled slightly.

An invisible fire suddenly appeared, overflowing from the Demon Buddha's body, and seemed to halt the Demon Buddha's movements, making it difficult for Him to mount an effective resistance for a time.

At the same time, the incarnation of Moro also emerged from the abyss of destruction, half of him radiating golden Buddhist light and the other half radiating dark demonic energy, making him half Buddha and half demon.

The moment he made his move, the aura of the Supreme True Buddha appeared, restraining both Buddhism and the Demon Buddha, binding them to their spot.

"The Supreme Buddha's restraint on Buddhism is truly terrifying!"

Seeing this scene, Meng Qi made a thoughtful guess.

……

The Demon Buddha has fallen.

He died just as the final catastrophe was beginning to show signs of destruction, and was surrounded and killed before he could become a symbol of the end, just like in the original timeline.

When the other shore falls, strange phenomena will naturally occur.

Although the great figures of the other shore are outside the long river of time and destiny, transcending all the heavens and myriad realms, when they condensed the illusory Dao Fruit, they were one of the foundations of all the heavens and myriad realms. Now that they have fallen, it is equivalent to the collapse of that foundation, so naturally it will not be without ripples.

However, just as the strange phenomenon of the Demon Buddha's fall was about to spread, Shang Yi inside the shop intervened and wiped it away, preventing it from triggering the final catastrophe.

Bodhi Pure Land.

"Shang Yi..."

As the incarnation of Moro devoured the mark and part of the Dao Fruit belonging to the Demon Buddha, the Ancient Buddha Bodhi couldn't help but show a trace of apprehension.

He never expected that the Demon Buddha would be trapped in the Nine Netherworlds and die so suddenly, killed by the four Other Shores who secretly plotted against him.

He sensed the Demon Saint's attack, but when he tried to stop him, he was held back.

The Azure Emperor has made his move.

Although the Azure Emperor was relatively weak among the other shore beings, it was not difficult for him to hold off the Bodhi Buddha for a few breaths. It was during this time that the Demon Buddha perished.

Originally, facing the siege of the Demon Saint, Meng Qi, and Ruan Yushu, the Demon Buddha could have held out for at least half a day. Unfortunately, the incarnation of Moro, who was prepared in advance, also descended upon the Black Prison.

In a one-on-one situation at the Other Shore Realm, the True Buddha's suppression of Buddhism was not as overwhelming as it was at the Sea of ​​Bitterness. However, the Demon Buddha was already under siege and his demise was only a matter of time. He had no strength left to resist the True Buddha who restrained Buddhism.

Even though he was unwilling, the Demon Buddha had reached the end of his life.

His illusory Dao Fruit was first partially merged by Meng Qi, which transformed Meng Qi's original Dao Fruit, which contained many Great Daos and was of the same origin as the Demon Buddha, into a Dao Fruit prototype.

As for the Demon Buddha's Dao Fruit, the part that overlapped with Meng Qi's own Dao Fruit was separated by Meng Qi and given to the True Buddha.

Although Ruan Yushu and the incarnation of Moro did not contribute much in this siege of the Demon Buddha, their efforts were crucial. Otherwise, the Demon Saint would have had little chance to launch a sneak attack on the Demon Buddha. And if they had delayed for a while, the Bodhi Ancient Buddha, who had defeated the Azure Emperor, would definitely have stood against them.

Whether you call it the rabbit mourning the fox's death or the lips being gone and the teeth being cold, who knows if the next one to be besieged will be Himself?
It was thanks to the crucial roles played by the incarnation of Moro and Ruan Yushu that such a great harvest was achieved.

Even if the Eternal Mother wanted to intervene in this matter, she would be willing but unable to do so.

……

Six months after the fall of the Demon Buddha.

With a beaming smile, Gu Xiaosang stepped out of Yuxu Palace, breaking free from her sea of ​​suffering.

Now that the situation is clear and we have accumulated enough experience, when else should we break free from this misery?
Just like in the original timeline, Gu Xiaosang successfully reached the other shore and witnessed the five extraordinary phenomena.

The universe was in chaos, illuminating all directions. At the end of the cycle of birth and death, time surrounded me, and I saw the beginning of creation.

Elysium.

Maitreya was moved by what he saw.

"I now understand the attitudes of all the important figures on the other side. Although the attitude of the one from the Heavenly Court is rather ambiguous, the other important figures, even if they do not help, will not obstruct us."

"All the efforts I've made over the years to escape this misery have not been in vain."

Maitreya's Secret Passage.

The next moment, He stepped out of the Pure Land, and before Gu Xiaosang's vision of the other shore completely disappeared, He also began to break free from the sea of ​​suffering.

Not to be missed!
Maitreya left the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, broke free from the sea of ​​suffering, and absorbed all future bodies.

The illusory river of time and destiny flows ceaselessly, but unlike hundreds of years ago, many tributaries of this river of time have now largely succumbed to decay and destruction.

The final calamity is coming and cannot be stopped.

"The Great Way is accomplished today!"

Maitreya chanted a Buddhist prayer, feeling excited.

After enduring so much suffering, the dawn has finally broken.

One by one, Maitreya's future incarnations flowed backward toward the present moment, blurring the boundaries of time as they resonated with each other.

Jade Void Palace, Fusang Ancient Tree Realm, Demon Emperor Palace, Bodhi Pure Land...

Within the various pilgrimage sites, the important figures sat on cloud platforms, quietly observing everything.

Gu Xiaosang walked step by step from the beginning of the era back to the current point. She looked at Maitreya and smiled inexplicably.

She did not stop Maitreya, but returned to the Jade Void Palace, allowing Maitreya to ascend to the other shore.

He's just a dead man; why would she bother with him?

Gu Xiaosang was well aware of Shang Yi's attitude, having been relayed by Meng Qi. Even if she were involved with Amitabha Buddha's practice of seeking emptiness, let alone Maitreya, she might not be able to reach the other shore.

“If it weren’t for Amitabha Buddha’s creation of emptiness through reduction, Maitreya might still have a chance.”

Gu Xiaosang thought to herself, and she looked at Meng Qi with a smile, saying sweetly, "Husband, from now on, we will be together forever."

One door, two shores!

Like Shang Yi and Ruan Yushu, their abilities are not yet apparent, but once they both reach the nascent stage of Dao Fruit, they will become a force to be reckoned with.

If we compare those who have just reached the other shore to children, then the ancients who have reached the initial stage of the Dao Fruit are adults. Both belong to the same species, and what they lack is only the corresponding accumulation. As long as they do not perish halfway, they will eventually become adults.

"If the final tribulation is not the true end, then after countless years, only you will be by my side."

Looking at Gu Xiaosang, Meng Qi sighed.

Even if he uses every means at his disposal, his relatives and friends will eventually pass away forever due to various accidents. It's not about lifespan, but about the future when they compete for the Dao Fruit. As long as he still cares about his relatives and friends, they will definitely become the target of other ancient beings.

It was precisely because he foresaw the future that Meng Qi felt such emotion.

Gu Xiaosang smiled sweetly, and the two of them looked towards the Heavenly Court.

Nantianmen.

One hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals surrounded the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, creating an extremely magnificent spectacle, their fighting spirit soaring to the heavens.

In the new era of Heaven, even the weakest heavenly soldiers are human immortals, and the heavenly generals are among the heavenly immortals. Commanding hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers, they can form a great formation and draw upon the divine power of Heaven to suppress legendary powerful beings. This is not entirely hopeless.

As for the current gathering of 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, even those who have reached the pinnacle of legendary power must be wary, and even those with great supernatural abilities cannot be invincible.

"The ruler of the Buddhist kingdom on earth, the future Buddha Maitreya..."

"Those who secretly violate the heavenly laws and protect those who disrespect the heavenly laws can lay down their butcher's knives and enter the earthly Buddhist kingdom to chant scriptures and recite Buddha's name, thus eliminating their own sins."

"This is intolerable! The Heavenly Emperor is merciful and will not pursue this matter, but now that Maitreya wants to break free from the sea of ​​suffering, it is conceivable that the future Buddhist kingdom on earth will become a haven for more people who disrespect the Heavenly Court, causing the Heavenly Court to lose face."

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden read out the proclamation, her expression icy, as if she had been suppressing this matter for a long time.

After speaking at length for a while, seeing that Maitreya had begun to awaken the imprints of the past, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden shouted: "All Heavenly Court officials, follow me on the expedition to conquer the Buddhist kingdom on earth."

As His words fell, the deep sound of war drums grew louder as they approached, and one after another, vast, colorful clouds drifted in, upon which stood the gods, their fighting spirit surging. (End of Chapter)
