heaven money

As the ancient Buddha Bodhi pondered, he glanced at the Jade Void Palace and thought to himself:

"Not to mention, if the Golden Mother makes a move, Su Meng will inevitably come to stop her. When I face Shang Yi alone, although I will not perish, I will inevitably be weakened by Shang Yi, making me further and further away from the Dao Fruit."

Seeing Shang Yi's two incarnations depart, Bodhi Ancient Buddha looked at Zhunti Daoist, Nine Chaos Heavenly Venerable, and Black Heavenly Emperor...

Both of them severed their three corpses, but when will His three corpses be able to reach the other shore?
Does this mean that Shang Yi's achievement in the Three Corpses Severing Technique surpasses that of its founder?

……

Vacuum Hometown.

When the two incarnations from the other shore descended upon the Bodhi Pure Land, overwhelming demonic energy also enveloped the Void Homeland.

The demonic energy in the void formed a sea, transforming into a demonic realm, seemingly symbolizing the end of all realms, with the intent of destruction solidifying into reality.

In the Demon Realm, one can vaguely see endless universes heading towards their end. Unlike the destroyed universes outside, these universes destroyed in the Demon Realm, under the pressure of strange forces, became grains of sand and merged into the Eternal Demon Land.

At first glance, the Demon Realm seemed to be covered in dust, all of which were remnants of the universe.

Every instant, countless grains of sand, far exceeding the number of grains of sand in the Ganges, fall upon this void of the demon realm. This place seems to be the graveyard of the universe, the place where all worlds return to nothingness.

The will of Moro manifested in human form, looked at the bright moon in his vacuum homeland, and said, "Hand over the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram."

When Meng Qi reached the other shore, he revealed that he had impersonated the traces of Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun. It was not impossible to guess that the Zhuxian Formation Diagram was in the hands of Wusheng Laomu. Not to mention that Shang Yi had known for a long time that Wusheng Laomu had mastered the Zhuxian Formation Diagram, but he was not strong enough at the time, so he pretended not to know.

The bright moonlight remained silent for a long time, and an ancient and weathered array diagram, with red, blue, black and white at the four corners, connected to form Dao patterns, flew out of the vacuum homeland.

The ancient array seemed to be a manifestation of destruction; just a glance at it felt like being cut by knives, about to be torn apart by endless destruction.

Inside the Jade Void Palace.

Jade Cauldron Immortal's eyes were sharp and piercing, and he sighed, "The Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram..."

My fellow disciples had been in charge of the Four Swords of Zhuxian for many years and had even searched for the Zhuxian Formation Diagram, hoping to establish a sword formation to fight against the Other Shore after their teacher's disappearance. Unexpectedly, it ended up in the hands of the Eternal Mother.

"That's really true."

Guang Chengzi sighed.

Compared to Jade Cauldron Immortal, He had some guesses, but by then, the Master's disciples had all ascended to the other shore and become the second generation of Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

Having lost the Four Swords of Zhuxian, He no longer dwelled on it. Unexpectedly, on this day, He witnessed the Eternal Mother handing over the Zhuxian Formation Diagram.

Meng Qi and Gu Xiaosang gazed at their hometown, Vacuum, without making a move.

Although the couple should be able to kill the Eternal Mother if they join forces, Gu Xiaosang wants to rely on her own strength to fight against the Eternal Mother, who has been the shadow that has shrouded her throughout her life. Although she has made rapid progress and is now a near-ancient being, she is still far from being as powerful as the Eternal Mother.

Unless absolutely necessary, Gu Xiaosang did not want Meng Qi to take action.

She has reached the other shore; some things must be settled by herself.

Boom!

After the Eternal Mother handed over the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram, Moro had just obtained it when a booming sound resounded throughout the myriad realms.

It seems that the contact between the two ultimate symbols, Moro and the Zhuxian Formation, has caused the intent of destruction to surge, propelling all the heavens and myriad realms a great step towards final annihilation.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is complete!

Similar to the thoughts of Bodhi Buddha, after witnessing Shang Yi's undisguised transformation, the Eternal Mother also made a wise choice.

As for whether Shang Yi would become stronger and more difficult to deal with after obtaining the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, that was not within the consideration of the Eternal Mother.

That is something the oldest people need to consider.

Since Amitabha Buddha was restrained, it's no wonder that he handed over the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram without any resistance.

I won't pay...

He may die.

How could one die at the very end of an era?
……

The source of time.

Shang Yi, who had just returned to this place, watched the two oldest beings locked in fierce combat.

The Three Pure Ones corresponding to each era.

The manifested body is the ocean, the Dharma body is the Dharma body, and the reward body is the reward body.

Although it was a war between two people, it resembled a battle between thousands of troops. Every soldier here was of the level of the other shore who had transcended the sea of ​​suffering. With a single thought, they could unleash the great power of the other shore that even the sea of ​​suffering could not resist.

Perhaps the two oldest beings, even in their weakest incarnations, are far inferior to the normal beings of the Other Shore. However, since they are beings of the Other Shore and have appeared at the very root of time, it means that their numbers can determine the final outcome of this battle.

Some incarnations may be weak, but in essence, they undoubtedly belong to the most ancient.

Ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand...

More than the sands of the Ganges.

Compared to Amitabha Buddha's almost limitless manifestations, the Three Pure Ones' manifestations of the Moral Celestial Venerable, though equally numerous, pale in comparison.

Each of the Three Pure Ones must face countless incarnations at the other shore level.

The impending catastrophe brought about by Shang Yi's swallowing of the Nine Netherworlds and merging with the Nine Heavens has made the weakening of the Moral Celestial Venerable more obvious, making it difficult for him to completely suppress Amitabha Buddha.

Unfortunately, before Amitabha Buddha could intervene in the various events of the final era, Shang Yi arrived here, already the oldest among them.

Shang Yi's arrival also attracted the attention of the two most ancient celestial beings and ancient Buddhas.

Neither of them expected that Shang Yi would become the fifth oldest being in all of history.

Before transcending, the Daoist Venerable was not, the Demon Emperor was not, and the Jade Emperor was not either; they were all just one step away from it.

Dao Zun did not need to become the oldest being to create the method of seeking emptiness through subtraction and attain the Dao fruit.

The Demon Emperor is currently in a peculiar state, isolated from all the heavens and myriad worlds, and cannot be perceived, making it impossible to determine whether he is an ancient being or the most ancient being.

As for the Supreme God of Heaven…

After planning for several eras, he dominated the primordial era, but unfortunately, he still lacked the time and perished when the era ended.

In comparison, Shang Yi, who became the oldest being before the end of the era, was exceptionally outstanding.

As the two oldest beings gazed upon him, Shang Yi laughed heartily and said:
"Celestial Venerable, please observe the battle for now. I have a karmic connection with Amitabha, and I'll take advantage of this era before it ends to settle things properly."

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Venerable of Morality said nothing more, immediately retreated, and returned to non-action, purity, and nature.

"Amitabha……"

Shang Yi looked at the ancient Buddha, his tone enigmatic.

Meeting Shang Yi's gaze, Amitabha Buddha remained unfazed and simply uttered a Buddhist chant.

Even among the oldest, there are distinctions of strength and weakness.

Otherwise, the Celestial Venerable of Morality would not have been able to suppress Him.

Amitabha Buddha would never believe that Shang Yi, who had just become the oldest being, was stronger than Him.

Compared to Shang Yi, His only concern was whether Meng Qi would achieve perfection at this moment, allowing the Three Pure Ones to succeed in their quest for emptiness and thus attain the Dao.

"Fellow Daoist, is that truly the case?"

Amitabha Buddha said indifferently.

He said, "Could it be that, fellow Daoist, because of the karma from the past, you are prepared to sacrifice your life in exchange for the opportunity of the Three Pure Ones to attain enlightenment?"

Sacrificing his life doesn't mean Amitabha Buddha is confident he can kill Shang Yi. Rather, it means that once the era ends, Shang Yi, who has ascended to the supreme throne of all realms, will inevitably die unless he attains enlightenment. Even the oldest among them might not be an exception. After all, throughout all eras, no Heavenly Emperor has ever been the oldest. No one can be certain that Shang Yi, already the oldest, will necessarily perish when the era ends.

Upon hearing this, Shang Yi snorted lightly and replied calmly, "If that's really the case, it's because I held you back, giving the Three Pure Ones the opportunity to attain the Dao Fruit. Even if I were to perish in the final tribulation, I'm afraid I would still have a chance to start over."

"The final destruction of the last calamity is not necessarily the true end."

According to his speculation, the matter of the final calamity is indeed true. If it weren't for the fact that the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, who had attained the Dao Fruit in the original timeline, appointed Meng Qi to create the heavens and establish a new era, everything would probably have come to an abrupt end.

It was only because of the intervention of a Dao Fruit that the new era was able to be successfully established, instead of what the Other Shore had predicted: that even if the Primordial Heavenly Venerable opened the heavens, the new myriad worlds would soon be swallowed up by nothingness.

If it is the Eternal Mother who attains enlightenment, then perhaps the final calamity will be the true end.

The Supreme Lord of Morality spoke up, nodding and saying, "If it is as Fellow Daoist Shang Yi said, I will revive Him after I attain enlightenment."

This has nothing to do with cause and effect; it's simply a choice of nature.

Now that the situation is settled, He did not even bring back the Primordial Celestial Venerable and the Spiritual Treasure Celestial Venerable, who had vanished for countless ages.

This action was solely for the purpose of merging more quickly and maturing the embryonic form of one's own Dao Fruit the instant the power of the complete epochal cycle appeared.

Seeing that Amitabha Buddha seemed to be deep in thought, Shang Yi stepped forward and said coldly, "It's a pity that you will perish here today, and you will not be able to see the future events."

His words were filled with undisguised murderous intent, which sent chills down one's spine. He actually wanted to kill Amitabha Buddha, the oldest being who had attained enlightenment countless eons ago, right here and now!
The hatred of being enslaved is naturally irreconcilable. If he hadn't accidentally discovered Amitabha Buddha's hidden hand, he would have been doomed long ago.

The words spread, echoing through every ripple of time throughout history, startling those who lived on the other side of future eras.

Where does He get his confidence?

Kill Amitabha Buddha?
Throughout the many eras, there have been few who have fallen to the other side, but there have been some. However, has there ever been the oldest one who has fallen?

As the final tribulation is about to erupt, will they witness something unprecedented?

Within each of the other shore dojos, gazes filled with slight surprise and doubt were cast toward the root of time.

Unfortunately, even the oldest beings can only stop at the moment of the birth of the first era and cannot go back further. Their vision is naturally included in that time. Or rather, if they can see the source of time, it means they can go back to the source of time, and then they are the oldest beings.

For a moment, the hearts of those who had remained calm for countless years stirred slightly.

Upon hearing Shang Yi's murderous words, Amitabha Buddha smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, make your move."

He did not think there was anything wrong with driving Fu Huang to plant the seeds of enslavement in Shang Yi's incarnation.

Beyond the other shore, transcending all heavens and realms, the common sense and morality of the world can no longer bind them. Everything, everyone, and everything that helps them achieve enlightenment is right, and vice versa.

Seeing Amitabha Buddha's attitude, Shang Yi could guess what he was thinking, and his killing intent burned even brighter.

Zheng!
Four sword lights, one red, one blue, one black, and one white, slashed out from his side, sealing off the eight directions and six realms.

The ancient and weathered Zhuxian Formation also appeared at this time.

Not long after acquiring it, Shang Yi refined the most core treasure of this Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.

Boom!

The terrifying destruction and slaughter permeated all the great paths, yet the source of time remained vague and almost mingled together.

Compared to the original Zhuxian Sword Formation, not only is the Zhuxian Formation Diagram now fully restored, but the current juncture is also drawing ever closer to the final calamity, with destruction reigning supreme, making the power of the Zhuxian Sword Formation even more terrifying and unparalleled.

The treasures of the Other Shore coexist through the ages. Even though the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is located at the Root of Time, it has been amplified due to the current node. In other words, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation within the Root of Time has also been amplified.

At this moment, even if Amitabha Buddha remained calm and did not believe that Shang Yi had the power to kill him, he could not help but change his expression slightly.

"During the Investiture of the Gods, we took the opportunity to dismantle the Zhuxian Sword Formation, and it was indeed true."

"If Lingbao were to take charge, the Zhuxian Sword Formation might actually pose a threat to the life of the oldest being."

Amitabha Buddha silently thought to himself.

The four great sword formations of Slaughter, Conquest, and Annihilation completely surrounded Him in the center, transforming into countless heavens, with endless sword energy intertwining and slashing towards the ocean that manifested as Him.

Shang Yi knew that the current Zhuxian Sword Formation posed little threat to the oldest being, and without wasting his efforts, he chose to first eliminate the Yin-Yang Ocean that made him somewhat wary.

Since Amitabha Buddha summoned the ocean of manifestations during the war of the oldest beings, it means that the saying "many ants can kill an elephant" is not unfounded in the current situation.

Perhaps the difference between a single manifestation and the oldest being is far greater than that between an ant and an elephant, but the sheer number of manifestations is overwhelming, to the point that it makes one's scalp tingle.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation clashed with the Ocean of Manifestations, resulting in an earth-shattering battle.

Each sword aura seemed to possess a life of its own, transforming into a sword spirit that unleashed stunning sword techniques.

Seven Swords of Heaven-Slaying, Reverse Heaven-Slaying, Nine Swords of Tathagata...

One sword gives rise to myriad laws, and myriad laws are transformed into one sword...

Each and every sword aura of annihilation and destruction manifests as myriad swords, giving rise to myriad laws, and combining with the Great Dao of time, space, matter, and energy within itself.

Even within it, one can see the shadows of sword techniques such as the Calamity Spell, the Grass Sword Technique, and the Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique. Of course, the fact that they can be used at this time undoubtedly proves that Shang Yi has innovated on the original basis, allowing the three Immortal King-level sword techniques to be sublimated to the extreme, surpassing the original by many times.

This battle occurred not only at the Root of Time, but also throughout all eras, permeating every ripple.

It was also seen by all those on the other side.

The endless sword energy within the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation can drive any sword cultivator to madness and obsession.

Unfortunately, apart from those at the Other Shore level, no one could sense the general situation inside the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation; only endless destruction and devastation filled the hearts of all beings in the Sea of ​​Suffering.

The river of time is in constant turmoil, and the logic of time itself is being completely trampled upon.

One moment, the next.

Past, present, future...

Every ripple in the river of time has been greatly altered by the appearance of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation. The power of historical correction and the power of great cause and effect are simply unable to stop all of this and cannot affect the existence of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation or the resulting historical changes.

So-called ancient history seems so pale and powerless when facing the other side.

The great upheaval in history has directly impacted the present moment, making the destruction all the more apparent.

The apocalypse, which was originally expected to erupt more than a hundred years later, is now imminent thanks to Shang Yi's intervention!

Unlike the Taoist master who defended history when confronting Amitabha Buddha, he allowed numerous changes to occur, leading everything to ultimate destruction.

The oldest Buddha chanted the Buddha's name, looked at the ocean of manifestations that was at a disadvantage, and said softly, "The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is truly extraordinary."

Upon hearing this, Shang Yi's expression seemed to grow even colder.

His greatest achievement in swordsmanship was only rewarded with the phrase "The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is extraordinary"?
Deceiving too much!

As Shang Yi's emotions were in turmoil, Amitabha Buddha spoke calmly: "If that's all you've got, you're still a bit short of killing me."

Besides the manifested body, Amitabha Buddha also cultivates the Dharma body and the reward body, both of which possess the essence of the most ancient being.

As He spoke, a relic burst forth from the spiritual platform, hovering above Amitabha Buddha's head, surrounded by dreamlike radiance.

The Great Perfection Sambhogakaya, which had been separated by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, reappeared beside Amitabha Buddha, chanting Buddhist mantras in a low voice and dissipating the sword energy.

The relics shone with white light, filling the past, present, and future.

Immeasurable light! Immeasurable life! Immeasurable supernatural powers!
Under the white light, the Zhuxian Sword Qi, which had been performing a marvelous sword technique, gradually became illusory, as if it had become something from a dream. Once the dream ended, it was gone.

Amitabha Buddha is the master of dreams, possessing the Dharma of enlightenment within dreams, and is the overlord of dreams and fantasies.

Wherever the white light shone, everything turned into dreamlike illusions. The terrifying sword energy was nothing, the ingenious sword techniques were nothing, the majestic emperor was nothing. It seemed that everything was a dream, unable to exist in reality.

Shang Yi vanished without a trace! (End of Chapter)
