A journey of survival starting from Zhetian

Chapter 739 touches upon "half a step beyond transcendence"

[The Real World].

The sky, devoid of black and white, was suddenly filled with a faint, seemingly infinitely large yet infinitely small, bluish-purple light of white.

In an instant, it illuminated the Nine Heavens and the Nine Netherworlds, lit up all the pure lands of creation in the Realm, and spread to countless fragments of cosmic light that were on the verge of destruction. Even the past history shimmered with a dreamlike glow, as if in a dream.

This is the second type of vision from the other side: "Illuminating all directions".

The more areas illuminated, the deeper the foundation; many powerful beings with extraordinary abilities are well aware of this.

It is truly unimaginable for them to have directly illuminated all the heavens and myriad realms and penetrated the long river of time and destiny like the Dao Venerable. The expressions of each great supernatural being were extremely complex.

However, upon closer examination, it seemed perfectly reasonable to place all these unbelievable things on the Daoist Master.

After all, this Daoist master created a "heretical" method that, once the final step was taken, could be equivalent to the weak other shore. He also deduced all the conditions for ascending to the other shore and began to preach the path to the other shore in the [Zixiao Palace].

In this glimmer of light, one after another, the phantoms of countless worlds emerge, reappear, and intertwine, as if reshaped on the long river of time and destiny across countless eras.

Those illusory realms filled with a profound aura were more desolate, more ancient, and more profound than the last, tracing back to the earliest era, to the time when, theoretically, only the other side of the heavens existed.

All beings possessing power at the level of the Other Shore saw an abstract being holding a long banner resembling both an axe and a sword, standing silently at this historical juncture, stepping towards an even more ancient point, arriving before a wisp of indescribable, dazzling light that seemed to be the beginning of everything.

This majestic, abstract being has turned back, looking from the "past" to the "future".

In the midst of the uproar, a terrifying interweaving of "past," "present," and "future" occurred, and history silently underwent subtle changes.

Some highly skilled individuals with profound knowledge of "returning to the past" and who have reached the level of perfect creation can, at this moment, even "perceive" their "selves" from past eras through this otherworldly phenomenon, as if they were one with it.

At the same time, certain concepts, rules, and images seem to be peeled away like a thin veil, or as if they are revealing certain seemingly "erroneous" and "distorted" "truths" to the "present time point" and to the existence of the other side.

In the third heaven of the Nine Heavens, a being of perfect creation was in a daze, muttering to himself, "Yuanshi Tianzun, Daode Tianzun, and Lingbao Tianzun, are they all Dao Venerables?"

"Are these innate other shores all projections of the current 'Dao Venerable'?"

"how can that be"

As he spoke, the man, whose expression was one of perfect enlightenment, suddenly froze, and his pupils gradually dilated.

The pseudo-otherworldly power bestowed upon him surged spontaneously, rising and falling like a howling wind, like a pillar gradually penetrating his mind, anchoring him to true reality, enabling him to awaken from "error" and "distortion".

In an instant, numerous illusory memories and the "correct" memories that one knew became as clear as heaven and earth.

The realization that he had been awakened from this silent influence only made this man, who had achieved perfect enlightenment, tremble with fear.

His voice trembled as he exclaimed, "Even the memories of the pseudo-Other Shore can be affected. How is this possible?"

"Even the three vanished Celestial Venerables did not."

This being of perfect creation fell silent; He dared not guarantee that His so-called "correct" memory was truly accurate.

If the Daoist Venerable can influence the pseudo-other shore by editing past history, it is not impossible for the three extremely ancient Heavenly Venerables of the past to do the same.

At the end of the previous epoch, He personally witnessed creation and could not be sure how many changes the "history" He experienced had undergone in the hands of the three beings from the other side of the heavens.

This great being gazed upon the ever-shining myriad realms, the incomparably romantic and dreamlike river of time and destiny, and the increasingly dazzling Third Kind of Otherworldly Phenomena.

His eyes closed slightly, a hint of anticipation in them, and he sighed softly, "Fortunately, this sea of ​​suffering is finally coming to an end."

"This otherworldly phenomenon, known as 'Qi Transformation into the Three Pure Ones,' is truly magnificent."

The various strange phenomena presented by the Great Dao gradually dissipated, and Xiong Mo's figure returned to the current point, yet it seemed as if he was still at the source of time, unchanged.

The clear, round light behind his head subtly rose a few degrees, revealing an endless, illusory river that swirled around him. Time flowed by, things passed like a river, fate played its moves, destiny remained constant, filled with loneliness and indifference. This river of time, which pierced through the Realm of Truth, the Nine Heavens, the Netherworld, and countless fragments of cosmic light, was indistinguishable from reality.

The fourth type of vision from the other side: "Time surrounds the body".

The pseudo-Beyond Shore could not believe it and cried out in shock, "The fourth type of Beyond Shore phenomenon has actually occurred!"

"According to the principles personally stated by the Daoist Master within the Purple Cloud Palace, and the joint deductions of us many beings from the other shore, in the process of attaining the Dao of the other shore, one should rewind to the past and occupy a certain portion of the illusory future before this fourth type of other shore phenomenon can manifest!"

"Have we misunderstood, or have all the heavens and myriad realms gone mad?!"

Amitabha Buddha, through the power of the weak other shore, stands on the river of time, seeing things more clearly than many false other shores.

He reasoned in his mind, “Since the characteristics of the other shore are already perfected and the rudimentary form of the Dao fruit has been cultivated in advance, ‘returning to the past’ and ‘possessing the future’ are just two steps for the Dao Venerable to prove the other shore. He does not need these two steps to perfect himself.”

"Next, all that's left is to go to the future, occupy a certain portion of the future, and then the Dao Venerable can be achieved."

The river of time in the Real World suddenly became illusory. The future seemed so illusory, like remnants of a dream, as if history should end here and there was no need for it to continue. What the myriad worlds would face from then on was nothing but dreams and illusions, an endless catastrophe, and a chaotic calamity that would gradually bury life.

Xiong Mo's expression remained unchanged. This was the impact of the disappearance of the Three Pure Ones on the "World of One Life," and it was something he had anticipated having to face.

As the incantation changes, the Taiji diagram that is still maintaining stability in the Real World transforms into surging earth, water, wind, and fire. The deeply hidden "foundation for existence" manifests and merges into one's own "fruit of survival," overlapping with the "foundation for existence" that belongs only to oneself.

With a flick of his sleeve, the Pangu Banner in his hand scattered endless, boundless chaos, and the innate cause formed from countless worldly fruits slowly bloomed, becoming his own "opening-up Dao fruit," reflecting one aspect of himself without leaving a trace.

With a slight thought, the [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation], which had been residing in the [Gray Mist Space] recently, manifested around him. Four different types of final flashes, four boundless forms of destruction, and four states corresponding to the final tribulation, triggered the incomplete epochal cycle power he had collected, which expanded independently and hung in the void.

The world fell silent.

Whether it's the realm of creation or below, or Amitabha Buddha who has attained the other shore of heterodox paths, in Xiong Mo's eyes at this moment, everything is completely still. Even the laws of heaven and earth have solidified, transforming into a real and authentic "silent world."

This was true "omniscience and omnipotence." In this state, Xiong Mo felt no different from being inside the [Gray Mist Space]. Everything in this world seemed like a brightly colored canvas, which he could freely paint, delete, and write on.

The word "divine will" has never been so perfectly suited to me as it is now.

[Note: The current global influence has reached its extreme (global weighting: 99%)]

[Hint: The current 'opening-existence-termination' operation logic has reached a perfect loop.]

[Note: This perfect loop is currently being recorded and recording is complete.]

[Note: According to the reserved settings, the space is attempting to operate in a 'create-exist-terminate' logical loop.]

【提示：空间完整度正在上升.70%76%80%83%90%】

[Warning: Unknown assimilation has occurred in the space, terminating the 'opening-existence-ending' logical cycle!]

[WARNING: Unknown assimilation actively collapses, current logic chain breaks!]

[Note: The device is currently in use according to the preset settings; space damage is being repaired.]

【hint:】

A hint of confusion appeared in Xiong Mo's eyes, but that confusion quickly turned into a fleeting glimmer of light.

Hundreds of millions of pop-up windows appeared, with red warnings and orange prompts becoming special beacons that suppressed the eerie and indifferent "divinity" of "enlightenment" and rekindled the fire of "humanity".

If it weren't for the characters from the panel information flashing before Xiong Mo's eyes, constantly reminding him, he would almost believe that he had already attained the Dao and transcended worldly concerns.
“If I continue to assimilate the unknown in this way, and the unknown assimilation does not collapse on its own, I may be able to become the ‘highland will’ of the ‘world’.”

"According to the system I have constructed, things like the 'mysterious plateau' and the 'plateau will' are 'half-step transcendence.' Taking half a step towards 'transcendence' can also be considered 'transcendence.'"

"Although after attaining this 'half-step transcendence,' there is a very high probability that one will lose the hope of truly attaining the Dao and thus transcending the world."

【the way:
Dream (Prototype of the Dao Fruit, the Other Shore)

The process is underway (initially forming the Dao Fruit, the Other Shore+++, the causes of various fruits, the characteristics of the Dao Fruit, the power of sacrificial rituals, and the power of the incomplete epochal cycle).

Existence (Prototype of Dao Fruit, Other Shore+++, Foundation for Existence, Characteristics of Dao Fruit, Power of Sacrifice, Power of Flaws and Cycle of Eras)

The End (The prototype of the Dao Fruit, the Other Shore+++, the End of All Things, the characteristics of the Dao Fruit, the power of the sacrificial Dao, and the power of the incomplete epochal cycle are being enhanced)

Xiong Mo glanced at the current panel information again, chuckled softly, looked at the "still" apocalypse in front of him, and slowly walked in.

With the Dao Fruit of Termination rising, the final calamity is under control. Reaching out and wiping forward, the blank space that would have harmed the other shore instantly ceased, leaving only a nearly endless chaos.

The power of the cycle operates, with the final Dao fruit and the opening Dao fruit overlapping each other, and the vast power creating something from nothing.

Xiong Mo reached out and plucked the two overlapping Dao Fruit rudiments, shaping them with a familiar stone axe, forming the boundless chaos.

A dreamlike axe light fell, and chaos was first divided, yin and yang began to separate.

At this moment, he is the end of the boundless calamity, and also the beginning of creation; he is the final destruction, and also the boundless creation; he is Lingbao Tianzun, and also Yuanshi Tianzun!

"A new era begins here!"

In an instant, time flowed, space became orderly, the three symbols returned to their positions, the three powers were established, earth, water, wind, and fire surged, the four symbols circulated and rotated, the five elements took shape, and the five elements were derived!
Xiong Mo lightly pointed at Wuming, and the cyclical power circulated, causing the Dao Fruit of Preservation and the stone axe in his hand to overlap again. He established his own morality, transformed Qi into the Three Pure Ones, and various Great Daos roared one after another. Countless laws and principles arose from him, countless rules originated from him, and immeasurable laws were formed by him.

A new era begins, the very first second: the Real World appears!
In the second of the new era, the Nine Heavens and the Nine Netherworlds emerged simultaneously!

In the new era, in the third second, the seed of Jianmu fell into the highest level of the Nine Heavens, transforming into a tender sapling surrounded by countless Great Daos, stabilizing all phenomena, supporting all heavens and myriad worlds, and constructing the continuation of the era!
The future has arrived, and it is real.

Xiong Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and sighed softly, "This feeling of having everything under my control is truly wonderful. As long as something hasn't been completely transcended, I can control it entirely."

A few breaths later, he bent his sword finger and unleashed a sword light that was extremely clear, pointing towards his true spirit, his Dao fruit, his Dao heart, and the "world power" that was blessing him, without the slightest hesitation or doubt.

A cracking sound rang out, and the cycle of operation abruptly broke apart. The superimposed state of opening the Dao Fruit, continuing the Dao Fruit, and ending the Dao Fruit completely separated, scattering into three complete parts. The Taiji Diagram, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, and the Pangu Banner also reappeared, leaving only the symbol stored within them.

"Well"

A wave of intense discomfort surged through Xiong Mo's body, turning his face deathly pale and causing him to cry out in pain.

He could feel himself falling into more than one "level," and in every aspect, it produced a kind of "phantom pain" that was almost tangible, almost tearing apart his own "meaning of existence."

However, a sense of relaxation emanating from the [Gray Fog Space], as if a thousand burdens had been lifted, made him feel it was all worthwhile.

After waiting for several more breaths, the discomfort from all aspects was finally suppressed with the help of the essence of the [Gray Mist Space].

"The Three Pure Ones symbolize the addition of oneself, which means being able to transcend all other shores and to reach 'half a step of transcendence'."

"But this cause and effect, this fate, this connection, is simply boundless."

"The creation of the world was indeed fraught with pitfalls, and a deep, bottomless pit at that."

Even though he had anticipated it, Xiong Mo still couldn't help but change color when faced with this cause and effect.

He shook his head slightly, looked at the vast river of time ahead, took a step forward, and countless projections of himself and others were automatically generated, falling into the countless possibilities derived from the years, extending his own existence to the end of the new era, to the final calamity that was about to descend once again.

From that moment on, his traces spread everywhere, whether at the beginning of creation, at the height of an era, or at the end of the world.
