"In the very beginning of the era, the illusory Dao Fruit was just an illusory Dao Fruit, and the rudimentary form of the Dao Fruit was just a rudimentary form of the Dao Fruit. It was not an ancient being. The illusory Dao Fruit that had just broken free from the sea of ​​suffering at that time could also be traced back to the era in which it existed, which was the time of the birth of the first era. It was the same as the definition of 'ancient being' in later eras, but in the end, it was just an illusory Dao Fruit."

Any nascent Dao Fruit being who has witnessed the birth, rise, and fall of all eras knows this.

But the Celestial Venerable of Morality pretended not to know, wanting to see what Shang Yi really wanted to say.

Upon hearing this, Shang Yi nodded in agreement and said, "Indeed, otherwise, when the final calamity buries all traces of the eras and a new era is opened, becoming the 'first era,' wouldn't those illusory Dao fruits become Dao fruit prototypes for no reason?"

"The names of the Ancient Ones and the Most Ancient Ones will probably disappear for many more epochs after the next epoch begins, until the number of epochs is enough to distinguish between the illusory Dao Fruit and the rudimentary form of the Dao Fruit."

After the final catastrophe, all traces of the past eras will disappear, and there will be no going back.

The next era, naturally, is the first era, the source of all subsequent eras.

When this era ends, unlike the end of previous eras, great supernatural beings will not be able to survive by luck and live to see the new era.

Without the protection of those on the other side, when the final calamity erupts and the river of time completely collapses, even those who have lost their past great powers will die. Even if they survive the terrifying calamity of the destruction of all the heavens and myriad worlds, they will perish from the collapse of their past history and the nothingness of their own past.

Since the two knew the true future, they did not shy away from discussing the new era after the end of the world.

It is true that the final calamity is true destruction, but it is illogical to say that it cannot overcome the Dao Fruit.

Finally, Shang Yi's expression shifted slightly, and he said:
"It seems that if a being is born at the source of time, it can only improve itself step by step. Being born the oldest, it may be easier for it to improve than other beings because of its origin, but it still requires a process of becoming stronger, rather than being born at the finish line."

After saying that, realizing he had made a mistake, Shang Yi corrected himself, saying:
"Um……"

"Although you are born at the end of the journey, without effort, you cannot return to the place of your birth, the source of time."

The Celestial Venerable of Morality frowned inwardly. He had a feeling that the majestic Emperor seemed to have grown even stronger.

Suddenly it became stronger, unlike the previous assimilation and fusion, which left the Celestial Venerable of Morality somewhat stunned, filled with countless doubts.

After nodding, He calmly said, "The Root of Time... can also be called the Root of Cause and Effect, but in order to better distinguish it from the Primordial One, the cause of all effects, fellow Daoists call the very beginning the Root of Time."

“Even if Yuanshi is the ‘being born at the source of time’ you mentioned, just as you said, because His past exists at the source of time, He has a natural advantage, so He can trace back to the source of time more easily than other fellow Daoists.”

"The Three Pure Ones are one. Although we did not understand the mystery at the time, after Yuanshi traced back to the origin of time, Lingbao and I also broke through the time of the birth of the first era and came to this place."

Shang Yi nodded. In that case, Amitabha Buddha, in a sense, is the true first and oldest being.

Among the oldest of them, only Amitabha Buddha's background was relatively 'ordinary'.

Although Amitabha Buddha made many efforts, theoretically surpassing the Three Pure Ones, unfortunately, the world is unfair. Among the oldest beings, He is at the bottom, and can only be at odds with the Moral Celestial Venerable at the end of the era.

"If we look at it from a different angle, the other Dao Fruit prototypes are just ancient ones, while Amitabha Buddha is the oldest one. Looking at it this way, it doesn't seem like much. After all, the efforts of any ancient one are no less than those of Amitabha Buddha, but only He is the oldest one outside of the Three Pure Ones."

Shang Yi thought to himself.

As for the Buddha, since the other party is a false enlightened being, there is no need to refer to him.

No longer dwelling on the fallen Amitabha Buddha, Shang Yi put away the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and prepared to shift his attention back to the current situation, ready to wrap things up.

The reason he inexplicably became stronger was not due to anything else, but because the Immortal Emperor body he had used for a long time had left. Only in this way could the Immortal Emperor body that the Lord of the Merchant Pavilion returned to after his fall be able to appear directly in the Root of Time without being tainted by any karma, and maintain the state of seeking emptiness and perfection.

This contrast between strength and weakness is not difficult to understand. The strong can use a part of themselves to forge a divine weapon, but the price is that they will forever lose that part of their body. Even if there is a method of blood regeneration, it cannot be restored. It is a fundamental and absolute 'disability'.

The same applies to the relationship between the Lord of the Merchant Pavilion and the Immortal Emperor, and between Meng Qi and the Demon Buddha. As long as the other party does not disappear, both parties are considered 'crippled'. Even if the Lord of the Merchant Pavilion and the Immortal Emperor are one consciousness with two bodies, this cannot be avoided.

The moment the Celestial Venerable saw the Celestial Emperor's form, he should have understood why Shang Yi had asked the question knowing the answer already.

Of course, Shang Yi had no intention of competing with the Three Pure Ones for the Dao Fruit. He had a positive causal relationship with the Moral Celestial Venerable, which was mutually beneficial, making it difficult for him to 'steal' the power of the epochal cycle.

Moreover, if others don't know, how could he not know? Beyond the world of the Supreme Being, there are even wider worlds, and other worlds are not without the Three Pure Ones.

Moreover, having already offended Amitabha Buddha in the world of the Supreme Being, if He were to offend the Three Pure Ones as well, would He still be able to continue to roam the myriad realms?

Although it is said that he killed Amitabha Buddha because the other party wanted to enslave him, there is a cause and effect involved. However, when it comes to cause and effect, it is only truly reasonable when the strong and the weak are discussing it. Moreover, Buddhism itself is the culmination of the way of cause and effect.

Of course, having such thoughts doesn't mean Shang Yi will always act subservient. Even if he did, he wouldn't dare kill Amitabha Buddha. After all, everyone is a member of the Buddhist community, and besides, with his current status, he's only slightly inferior to Buddha in the world of Supreme Being.

Ultimately, it was a struggle within Buddhism. The true origin of Amitabha Buddha among all the heavens and myriad realms would take action against Shang Yi because of the passing away of one of his incarnations.

Besides, Shang Yi isn't without backers. The ancestor of humanity, Suirenshi, once ignited a fire within Shang Yi's body. Perhaps these incarnations can't see it, but the true self of Amitabha Buddha can.

Moreover, this matter also involves Fuxi and Nuwa...

Shang Yi's decision not to compete for the Dao Fruit in this world is also due to his desire to establish a positive connection with the incarnations of the Three Pure Ones. Perhaps the other shore, the prototype of the Dao Fruit, and the Dao Fruit in this world are a rehearsal of the path to transcendence by the Three Pure Ones or even other beings. Becoming the Dao Fruit would also be beneficial to them.

If that's the case, then even if you do nothing, you can still create a good cause.

As a practitioner of the Way of Business, one should naturally pursue the maximization of profits while maintaining a clear mind. Obtaining a karmic connection with the Three Pure Ones will greatly facilitate one's travels throughout the myriad realms!
Current node.

Even after the Zhuxian Sword Formation disintegrated, the terrifying phenomena caused by the fall of Amitabha Buddha had not yet dissipated. The aura of destruction in all the heavens and myriad worlds became even stronger, and most of the multiverses were no longer suitable for normal living beings. Cosmic-level disasters raged in every universe.

Everyone knows that the end of the era is just around the corner.

In a few decades at most, it will all come to an end.

The Commercial Building, the Palace of the End of Calamity.

A kind-hearted person spread the news of Amitabha Buddha's passing to the World Forum of the End of Calamity Palace, causing a great uproar.

One of the oldest beings beyond all ages.

Amitabha.

Enter Nirvana!

Although sentient beings have heard of the great battles between the other shore during the final kalpa, which surpassed all previous eras, no one dared to imagine that Amitabha Buddha would actually perish and enter Nirvana.

This Buddha, so ancient that he transcends the earliest eras, could probably be considered a symbol of 'Buddha' if it weren't for the presence of the Buddha of Vulture Peak.

Soon, the whole story was revealed by concerned individuals.

"Amitabha Buddha took the initiative to attack the Lord of the Merchant Pavilion, but was no match for him and was ultimately killed?"

Many powerful figures were horrified.

No one questioned the authenticity of this news, because the person who posted it was one of the most famous people on the WanJie Forum... an expert.

"What do you think of the Merchant Pavilion Master's plan to kill Amitabha Buddha?"

"The end times are imminent, God cannot allow any mishaps!"

Just as some were worrying, Qu Jiuniang continued to perform her duties as an online troll, using a wisp of divine thought to control a forum account nicknamed "expert," replying ambiguously:

"I don't know either. How could the creatures of the Bitter Sea observe the complete battle process of the great figures on the other side?"

"I arrived at the Heavenly Dao Holy Palace late because I had personal matters to attend to, which is why I was fortunate enough to witness the extraordinary phenomenon of Amitabha Buddha's passing."

After He answered, Dao Guizhen continued after a while: "However, according to my observation, the Lord of Shanglou seems to be unharmed. Unlike the Eternal Mother who was severely injured and whose Great Dao Treasure Light was dimmed, the Lord of Shanglou's Great Dao Treasure Light is still so perfect and profound, without the slightest ripple."

His views convinced many people. As a celebrity on the WanJie Forum, it was no secret that the "expert" was suspected of being a legendary psychic.

A truly powerful being is capable of seeing these things.

Meanwhile, many more people were stunned.

He killed Amitabha Buddha without taking any damage?
What kind of power is this?
To be called the first person to reach the other shore in all of history is enough!
"With the protection of the Lord of the Merchant House, we have no need to fear the end of the era."

"Perhaps even the final tribulation cannot defeat God!"

In an instant, countless people were filled with excitement.

The Myriad Realms Forum connects to countless worlds. Although only a small number of lucky individuals outside the real world obtain the Myriad Realms Knowledge Talisman and change their fate, the forum still boasts hundreds of millions of active users. Even those who have died still have souls that can use the Myriad Realms Knowledge Talisman, which is bound to their primordial spirit and true soul, to see what the afterlife looks like.

This has led to the fact that when the final calamity erupts, even great figures who have transcended the sea of ​​suffering may perish, which is no longer a secret.

During this period of time, those who did not have the Universal Knowledge Talisman naturally had no worries, but those who could log in to the Universal Forum inevitably had concerns.

If the owners of the Shanglou all perish, will the Supreme Shanglou, this precious raft that shelters people from the end times, be destroyed?

Ignorance is bliss; the more you know, the more worries you have.

At this moment, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the future was bright and there was no more darkness.

Just as Qu Jiuniang was online trying to calm the emotions of the masses, He frowned and looked out into the heavens.

This is the celestial realm created by the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, its essence being roughly equivalent to creation itself, and it serves as the headquarters of the Heavenly Court's naval forces.

The celestial realm created by the great supernatural beings formed the myriad heavens within the Palace of the End of Calamity, and beyond these heavens lay the main hall of the Merchant Tower.

"It seems that the myriad realms were just shaken?"

Dao Guizhen's heart skipped a beat; he knew it couldn't be a misperception.

The commercial building has undergone tremendous changes, so much so that even the secluded palace, which exists in an infinite space-time continuum, has been affected.

Not only Dao Guizhen, but all the legendary powerful beings in all the Epochal Palaces of the Commercial Tower felt the slight tremor. Some civilizations that had explored higher dimensions also detected this fluctuation, and they were all dumbfounded.

However, due to the different eras and separate palaces, they are like two unrelated worlds, and no one knows where the source of the tremors comes from; they can only speculate.

……

The main hall of the commercial building.

Shang Yi sat on the throne and began to renovate the Shang Building.

After Amitabha Buddha's passing, his manifested body and reward body transformed into relics, proving that there once existed the oldest Buddha in the world.

As for the relics that should have been part of the golden body, they disappeared long ago as Amitabha Buddha expounded the boundless sea of ​​suffering.

He is now using Amitabha Buddha's two relics to make the business building even stronger, reaching a level comparable to the divine weapons that accompany the Three Pure Ones.

"From the perspective of maximizing benefits, it is undoubtedly the most cost-effective for the true Buddha to swallow two relics. Even if he cannot reproduce the power of Amitabha Buddha, it is not difficult to suppress the bottom of the ancient ones like the Golden Mother."

Shang Yi thought to himself.

However, he still chose to use two relics to upgrade the building's grade.

He, the owner of the Shanglou, is the strongest being in history. Even if his personal divine weapon is not the number one divine weapon, it cannot be much inferior to the Taiji Diagram and other divine weapons of the Three Pure Ones. At the very least, it must be equal to them.

Moreover, at this point, whether the true Buddha becomes stronger or not is no longer of much significance.

He is invincible.

Heaven and earth, the eight directions and six realms, all the heavens and the universe, time and space.

No one from beyond the shore could rival him.

"Before the curtain falls, that modified universe should also be moved into the shopping mall, lest it end along with this body."

With a thought, Shang Yi separated a universe from his body.

He had a premonition that after returning to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, a peak cultivator of the Human Path would accidentally enter this universe and participate in the collision of the Immortal Realm System, the Otherworld System, and the Secret Realm System.

The two relics gradually transformed into light and slowly merged into the commercial building.

This is the source of the tremors sensed by the powerful figures in the Epochal Palace.

While Shang Yi was focused on refining the Shang Tower, he suddenly had a whim and looked up at his Vacuum Homeland, which was beyond the endless dimensions of time and space.

He said calmly, "Don't make a mistake for yourself."

Then, Shang Yi looked away, seemingly no longer caring about that place.

Vacuum Hometown.

Upon hearing the voice beside her ear, the Eternal Mother's expression changed slightly, revealing a look of surprise.

He hadn't even truly activated the Six Soul Banner yet; he had just made preparations when he was detected?
The ability to conceal heavenly secrets and hide future power failed before Xuan Yang?

For a moment, the Eternal Mother froze.

Although the Six Soul Banner, empowered by the final tribulation, is powerful, it can only weaken the oldest beings by a few breaths at most.

Under normal circumstances, it is completely useless.

Even though the oldest one was weakened by the Six Souls Banner, it was basically not affected. The oldest one was still no match for it. It could only be effective at the most critical moments.

such as……

When vying for the opportunity to obtain the Dao Fruit.

Even the slightest weakening can slow one down on the path to enlightenment.

The original plan of the Eternal Mother was to activate the Six Soul Banner in the instant before the era ended, weaken them, and merge with the power of the cycle before all the competitors.

But at this moment, the plan seems unlikely to succeed.

Xuan Yang actually saw through His plans and saw the future that He had hidden.

"Even if the Way of Limitlessness is adept at concealing the secrets of heaven, will it reveal a flaw when facing the most ancient being?"

The mind of the Unborn Mother is complex and difficult to fathom.

pity……

I found out too late. (End of Chapter)
