The great battle quickly came to an end.

Even in his crippled state, Shui Bo Tian Hao was no match for the He Tu Luo Shu; in fact, the Divine Turtle alone could suppress Shui Bo Tian Hao.

Kunpeng, wielding the power of feng shui, fought the Flame Demon to a standstill. However, with the assistance of the Hetu and Luoshu, Kunpeng didn't need to worry about defense at all, and its frenzied attacks left the Flame Demon unable to even lift its head.

The remaining War Spirits faced Mu Yi's ferocious power head-on.

In this premeditated ambush, they didn't even have a chance to escape; they could only wait to be slaughtered.

Once the true spirits of the three were sent into reincarnation, it was officially confirmed that the three had completely perished.

"Emperor Mu!"

Kunpeng revealed its true form and saluted Mu Yi. Regardless of what happened in the past, Mu Yi's current status and position were undeniable, and he had no choice but to show respect.

"Leave the Hetu and Luoshu here. Go back and report!" Mu Yi nodded and instructed Kunpeng.

From the true spirit of the War Spirit, he discovered that there were quite a few visitors from beyond the realm this time.

The Anti-Kyushu Alliance is brewing some kind of conspiracy again.

However, what intrigued Mu Yi was why they chose their own world.

Even if one wanted to collapse this world and cause its demise, the existence of Mount Buzhou, the Four Extremes, and the Heavenly Pillar ensured that this world remained completely unshakeable during the factional conflict.

In particular, the fact that these people sought allies with the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan is quite surprising in a way.

It's unclear who misled them, or who was behind it all.

But it doesn't matter, it's just a matter of dealing with whatever comes our way.

He openly defeated eight powerful immortals and gods this time, but who knows what tricks they will pull next.

After Kunpeng escaped back to Heaven, he vividly recounted how they, eight against one, were defeated and killed.

"Demon Master, there's no need to blame yourself. Mu Yi is the Human Emperor of the Human Race, and he is indeed no ordinary person. You should go and heal your wounds first!" Xia Qi said solemnly.

It wasn't an act; he was genuinely serious. Bai Ze had already told him about Mu Yi's impending doom, and he and Bai Ze still wanted to bring down Mu Yi and force Mu Yi himself to take the stage.

From Kunpeng's description alone, he could tell that Mu Yi was much stronger than when they had fought for the throne.

Even if Kunpeng and the others don't betray him, Mu Yi might still be able to take on eight opponents at once.

After everyone left, Xia Qi arrived at a void.

"If this is all the skill your people have, then I think our cooperation can end here!"

Xia Qi spoke coldly to the being in the void.

The next moment, Brahma, with five heads, appeared in front of Xia Qi.

"Heavenly Emperor, do not be concerned about temporary setbacks; it was merely a small test."

Xia Qi looked coldly at Brahma in front of him.

"Your so-called test has already cost me two of my most important generals!"

"We also paid the price of five lives, didn't we?" Brahma smiled slightly, not caring about Xia Qi's attitude.

"We can provide as many projections of this level as you need!"

"I hope so!" Xia Qi frowned slightly and said coldly.

If the opposing side hadn't revealed at least three Emperors, he wouldn't be here feigning compliance with them.

Xia Qi scoffed at the other party's claim that they could have as much as they wanted. If the other side really had that ability, they wouldn't have been defeated by Kyushu in this state.

Everyone knows that the three principal gods of India have all perished, yet this guy is still pretending to be Brahma, acting like a god, and nobody knows what he's really up to.

"Since you say it's a test, what are you planning to do next time?" Xia Qi was too lazy to argue with them and asked directly.

"Eight won't do, so let's have twelve!" Brahma seemed confident of victory.

"Four more people, I'm afraid it's meaningless!" Xia Qi said indifferently.

"The strength of the Human Emperor is clearly based on his status as an emperor and his existence within his own world!"

Brahma's five heads all smiled, their faces full of wisdom and confidence.

"This time, the eight powerful deities have already tested the opponent's strength. The Yellow-Robed Lord has received a revelation that his avatar was sent to that space and suppressed by another deity!"

"The lack of coordination among the eight made them vulnerable to being defeated one by one. This time, we will send out twelve to form a formation, which will surely be able to suppress and kill Mu Yi!"

Xia Qi nodded upon hearing this.

"I'll trust you one more time. This time you need to send ten people, and I'll send Kunpeng and Bai Ze to assist them!" Brahma had no objections.

After Xia Qi left, Brahma also returned to their base camp.

"The people of Kyushu are unreliable. That Kunpeng clearly deserted his post and shifted all the blame onto us!"

As soon as Brahma returned, he heard someone angrily rebuking him.

"Ares, don't let your anger cloud your judgment. Kyushu is certainly unreliable, and our cooperation is merely to mislead them!" Zeus admonished expressionlessly.

Ares glanced at Zeus, then chose to remain silent and quietly returned to his original position.

However, everyone present knew that Ares's words were undoubtedly spoken at Zeus's behest.

"We're just using them as a springboard. The evolution of the new world is our best opportunity to enter. If it weren't for the irreconcilable conflict between the lich and the human race, our best strategy would be to unite with the lich and attack the human race at the same time!"

"Defying fate and rewriting the history of the Nine Provinces is quite tempting for those who are hiding in the past and trying to survive."

"Next time, it will be the final battle for the Lich faction. We will send ten people to kill Mu Yi. Who among you will go?"

Brahma didn't care about the thoughts of the people below. They were all on the blacklist of Kyushu, and now they had gathered together to try to disrupt Kyushu's progress.

Upon hearing this, everyone present fell silent.

Brahma was not surprised to see this and immediately volunteered.

"Brahma, Shiva, and Vishnu, attend!"

"Everyone knows that the Trinity of Hinduism has fallen. Who exactly are you?"

Zeus finally spoke, voicing everyone's question.

"It's just a little trick of reincarnation. We've lost the power of the main god, but we're still alive!"

Vishnu spoke slowly, explaining that they were actually projections of the true self, but when parts of the true self were passed down to these projections, they rightfully became the true self.

Whether they were the original Triad Gods is a matter of opinion.

This is also why they are so eager to deal with Kyushu.

The original deity dies, but can be "resurrected" through projections. However, if the propagation is lost, the other projections will gradually wither away, and after their death, they will never have the chance to be resurrected again. They introduced the Hindu pantheon of guardian deities for this purpose: to ensure the spread of faith as much as possible, thereby achieving continuous projection "resurrection."

This is also why there are enemies everywhere in Kyushu. Countless enemies were killed during Kyushu's expansion, and now these monsters and demons have gathered together to deal with Kyushu.

Kyushu cannot stop its expansion, otherwise, if one is killed, another will appear.

The only thing we can do is calculate the location of the relevant pantheons as best we can, and then attack them one by one.

The world that the Four Seas Dragon Clan had previously conquered, and the world that Mu Yi had taken over, were both their foundations.

This is also why they are the main force, because they are currently being pushed the hardest by Kyushu.

If they don't cause some trouble for Kyushu, they might really be buried by Kyushu.

That would mean it would vanish forever.

However, just as the war between the Lich King and the Lich King was slowly unfolding in the Great World, something happened that disrupted this rhythm.

A gentle light descended beyond the Heaven of Reincarnation. Within the light, on a seventh-grade lotus platform, sat the Buddha Baosheng. The Buddha Baosheng stood up and bowed to Mu Yi in reverence.

"Greetings, Your Majesty. By order of the Buddha Tathagata, Your Majesty is invited to go to the Western Paradise to attend the funeral of Dipankara Buddha."

"The funeral of Dipankara Buddha?"

Mu Yi raised an eyebrow. No wonder the Buddha Ratnasambhava could find him; it turned out that the Tathagata had shown him the way.

However, it was strange that he hadn't expected the Buddha to have a funeral.

However, he also realized that this was not only the funeral of Dipankara Buddha, but also a declaration of the restart of Buddhism.

After all, Buddha killed Wutian, allowing Buddhism to regain its footing in the Nine Provinces.

"good."

Mu Yi nodded. This matter was too deeply intertwined with his own karma, and he truly had no choice but to step forward.

"Then please lead the way, Buddha Ratnasambhava."

"Your Majesty is too kind," Baosheng Buddha said hastily. He was surprised that the dignified Emperor of the Nine Provinces was so polite, and he repeatedly said that he dared not accept it. Then he led the way.

A rainbow bridge shot out from the relic in the hand of Buddha Baosheng. The rainbow bridge was full of radiant light. Buddha Baosheng led the way and stepped onto the rainbow bridge. Mu Yi followed him. The rainbow bridge transformed into a rainbow of light and headed directly towards Mount Ling.

This journey is naturally to the Buddha's realm of Dipankara Buddha, which is also the great world where Dipankara Buddha became an emperor.

In that ancient Buddhist realm, the sunset and evening glow were exceptionally beautiful. Looking at the sky, one couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation and sorrow, with a desolate feeling pervading everywhere.

Mourning music was played everywhere, also expressing the sorrow. Dipankara Buddha also had several disciples, all dressed in robes, chanting the Rebirth Mantra.

It's just unknown where Dipankara Buddha was reborn.

After Mu Yi arrived, he saw many immortals and gods also arriving one by one.

However, Mu Yi's identity was special, and he was greeted by Maitreya, the future Buddha.

When Maitreya Buddha appeared, he had a smiling face and looked like a kind-hearted person.

"Greetings, Human Emperor!" Maitreya Buddha chanted, "Amitabha, how have you been lately?"

"I am too busy with affairs to come in disguise. I hope you will forgive me!" Mu Yi bowed.

His true form naturally needs to remain in the Great World to constantly regulate things within it, so he cannot leave to come here.

"The matter of the Human Emperor is also a matter for our Buddhist sect. Once this matter is settled, the Buddhist sect wishes to send a group of people to assist the Human Emperor. I wonder if the Human Emperor would agree?"

"Of course!" Mu Yi was naturally happy to welcome them; for his plan, the more people, the better.

However, it seems that Buddhism has indeed stabilized the situation, and now it even has the capacity to expand outwards.

Everyone was seated with the help of the Buddhist monks. They didn't know what the Buddhist monks were up to, but they were happy to see it happen.

Amidst everyone's curiosity, the funeral of the ancient Buddha Dipankara began, presided over by the Eastern Buddha, Bhaisajyaguru Buddha.

Bhaisajyaguru Buddha is the master of the Eastern Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli.

When this Buddha was practicing the Bodhisattva path in his past lives, he made twelve great vows to relieve the suffering of all sentient beings, enable them to have all their faculties, and lead them to liberation. Therefore, he became a Buddha based on these vows.

He is one of the three Buddhas of the Three Worlds, and also a Buddha of the highest rank in Buddhism.

The funeral of Dipankara Buddha, presided over by him personally, was extraordinary, and its level was completely different from that of ordinary monks and eminent monks.

Under the guidance of Bhaisajyaguru Buddha, most of the three thousand Buddhas of Buddhism appeared, including Namo Ratnaketu Buddha, Namo Maitreya Buddha, Namo Amitabha Buddha, Namo Nagarjuna Buddha, Namo Vigorous Buddha, etc.

Buddhist monks, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats gathered together, chanting Buddhist scriptures and the sutras of Dipankara Buddha.

The Amitabha Sutra, the Eight Buddha Names Sutra, the Eight Yang Mantra Sutra, the Sutra of the Names of the Thousand Buddhas of the Bhadrakalpa, the Sutra of Past and Present Cause and Effect...

In an instant, the sound of chanting arose loudly. Surrounded by this chanting, one felt happy, comfortable, and extremely at ease.

Dipankara Buddha has passed away, leaving behind relics. He also helped the Buddha defeat Wutian. At this moment, the relics are placed in the central altar.

During the chanting, the relics of Dipankara Buddha began to emit an intensely bright light, which then transformed into a rainbow. The rainbow circled the Buddhist monks and the onlookers three times before gradually shattering and dissipating among them.

"What a great handwriting!"

The Buddhist sect directly used relics to empower everyone, and for the immortals and gods who came to witness the ceremony, the effect was no less than that of rare and precious treasures such as peaches of immortality.

"What an impressive move!"

Mu Yi clicked his tongue in amazement. The Buddhist sect really had a deep foundation. He couldn't bring out such a foundation.

Just as Mu Yi was marveling at the sight, he discovered that there was another figure on the altar.

A moment ago, a figure emerged from the twelfth-grade golden lotus and merged into it.

At this moment, countless wondrous heavenly flowers, including mandalas, continuously fell from the sky. An infant leaped out from a lotus flower. The infant took seven steps on the lotus, looked around, pointed one finger to the sky and one finger to the earth, and clearly uttered eight words: "Above and below the heavens, I alone am supreme."

"Is this a rebirth?"

Mu Yi was somewhat surprised, but at this moment he understood why Guanyin Bodhisattva chose to leave Buddhism after the fall of Dipankara Buddha, instead of choosing to inherit Dipankara Buddha's Great World. It turned out that everything was predetermined.

Using a projection to represent the original location, sharing the same roots and origins, and with complete integration in the future, the path to becoming an emperor can be described as a smooth road.

This is not only the funeral of Dipankara Buddha, but also the rebirth of Dipankara Buddha.

Only then did everyone fully understand the significance of this grand Buddhist gathering.

Having witnessed the birth of Dipankara Buddha and received his gifts, they must also lend a helping hand in the future.

This was a way to protect Dipankara Buddha, and everyone couldn't help but admire the ingenuity of the Buddhist methods.

Although they had schemed against them, they had given them far too much. (End of Chapter)
