Rewriting the Gods

Xiniu Hezhou, Lingshan!
Sha Wujing addressed Maitreya Buddha at the head of the table, saying, "The human race is powerful and has a strong foundation. We beg the Buddha for assistance!"

The Maitreya Buddha at the head of the table couldn't help but shake his head slightly, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

When Wukong came earlier and took Sha Wujing away, the chances of victory were not small. In the midst of the fierce battle, the opponent would definitely not be able to take care of the Jade Kirin. If the Jade Kirin escapes, this will be difficult.

Unexpectedly, they underestimated the strength of the human race. The two people's Dao was actually the complementary Yin-Yang Dao. The two Daos merged into one and set up the Yin-Yang Dust Array, which directly suppressed Wukong.

This not only failed to achieve its goal, but also resulted in Wukong's downfall.

Moreover, there is only one spot left for the participants. For this pilgrimage, both parties agreed that there would be five participants, no more.

The Western Sect has already sent four people; if they still can't take them down, things could get complicated.

Alright, let Zhu Ganglie make a move. With Tianpeng's background, Zhu Ganglie's abilities must be formidable. Moreover, Tianpeng's body is transformed into the Heavenly Dao of Thunder Tribulation, and Zhu Ganglie, as a part of Tianpeng, is naturally favored by the Dao of Primordial Thunder, making it much easier for him to control thunder than ordinary immortals and gods.

If they go all out, there is still some hope of breaking the deadlock.

However, this Pigsy has inherited all of Tianpeng's negative traits; he is extremely lazy and probably unwilling to go all out.

A series of thoughts surfaced in Maitreya Buddha's mind. "Fine, fine, let Zhu Bajie make a move. If that doesn't work, there's one last chance. Just reveal one of my trump cards beforehand."

"Please wait a moment!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Maitreya Buddha looked up and gazed through the endless void, landing on Zhu Ganglie.

Sensing Maitreya Buddha's gaze, Zhu Bajie's expression shifted slightly. He glanced at Maitreya Buddha and thought to himself, "This is bad; I probably can't escape this time."

Maitreya Buddha himself has arrived; it seems he has encountered great trouble in Jambudvipa.

This is troublesome. They have to leave the mountain so early to retrieve some scriptures, and they've managed to stump the monkey and the reinforcements sent by Maitreya Buddha. The trouble on the human side is probably quite significant.

Thinking of this, Zhu Bajie felt full of resistance. Wouldn't it be better to take a nap instead of fighting so miserably?

"Zhu Ganglie!"

The voice of Maitreya Buddha resounded in the void.

Knowing he couldn't avoid it, Pigsy stood up, smiled, and cupped his hands in greeting to Maitreya Buddha, saying, "Old Pig greets Buddha!"

"You are Welcome!"

Upon hearing this, Maitreya Buddha also spoke up, saying that Zhu Ganglie was, after all, a part of that being, not a newly created spirit like Sha Wujing.

Marshal Tianpeng of the Heavenly Court is also a fellow practitioner, so he should be given some face.

"Zhu Ganglie, the human race is powerful. The pilgrims encountered trouble in the Southern Continent. The remaining four pilgrims, Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and Yu Qilin, were captured by the human race, and Sha Wujing was defeated and retreated."

"Currently, among the four major powers of Buddhism, Heavenly Court, Chan Sect, and Asura Clan, you are the strongest person below the Great Luo Golden Immortal."

"He is also the last of the five pilgrims, and now it is time for him to make his move."

The pig below kept rolling its eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

Maitreya Buddha did not give Zhu Ganglie a chance to speak, and said again: "I have also heard about your bet with Fellow Daoist Tianpeng. If you fail to obtain the scriptures, you will probably not be able to live a carefree life either."

"If the journey to the West is successful, there will be plenty of time to enjoy life in the future. Why be so concerned about the present moment?"

Zhu Ganglie nodded upon hearing this and said, "What you said makes sense."

"In that case, I, Old Pig, shall make the trip."

"Good, good, good!"

Maitreya Buddha nodded in response.

At Mount Ling, Maitreya Buddha withdrew his gaze, looked at Sha Wujing before him, and said, "Go here and find a man named Zhu Ganglie. He is the last pilgrim. If the two of you work together, E Lai alone will definitely be no match for you."

"It was all Hua Yang and Hua Yin who made the move, but they were unable to suppress Wukong. Now that Wukong has escaped, the three of you working together will surely be able to overcome this difficulty!"

"Respect the law!"

A look of joy flashed in Sha Wujing's eyes, and he immediately bowed and greeted him.

It then transformed into a streak of light and departed.

A fighting spirit flickered in Sha Wujing's eyes. As a being born from the Styx Ancestor's own killing principles, Sha Wujing was inherently warlike. His first goal was to prove himself in the prehistoric world.

Unexpectedly, due to the lack of support from his teammates, he had to retreat, even though he had the advantage.

This made Sha Wujing very frustrated. Now that help has come, I am determined to fight that evil Lai again!

Meanwhile, while the battle raged fiercely in the Southern Continent, beyond the primordial wilderness, in the endless chaos, everything remained unchanged from before the creation of heaven and earth.

And this is especially true in the deepest, most tranquil part of chaos, where nothing changes for countless years.

However, today, from the depths of a void of chaos, all sorts of strange phenomena have emerged, each one different from the last.

Some transformed into a Tai Chi diagram, others into a sharp sword, and still others evolved into the vast universe, creating all things... There were nearly ten thousand different kinds of strange phenomena, which shone continuously in the void, like streams of light revolving around a majestic being.

And this is where Jiang Haofeng went into seclusion that day.

While in seclusion, Jiang Haofeng set up the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array to conceal the strange phenomena. However, the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array was ultimately only comparable to a saint's array, and as Jiang Haofeng cultivated, this array gradually became insufficient.

Numerous strange phenomena also appeared in the endless chaos. Of course, with the cover of the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array, these strange phenomena were weakened many times over, and could only be displayed around the place where Jiang Haofeng was in seclusion, unable to radiate to a farther distance.

If it weren't for the cover provided by the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array, Jiang Haofeng's current actions would probably have already shaken the entire Chaos.

Inside the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array, Jiang Haofeng's eyes were closed, his brows were furrowed, and his face was full of doubt.

Around Jiang Haofeng, phenomena tens of thousands of times larger than those outside swirled, their powerful aura shaking the void, each phenomenon containing a completely different Daoist charm.

Each Daoist rhyme is a perfect Daoist rhyme. If an ordinary being can obtain this Daoist rhyme, he can instantly become a Primordial Golden Immortal and a great supernatural being at the peak of Quasi-Saint!
There are tens of thousands of such Great Daos around Jiang Haofeng.

Most importantly, compared to when Jiang Haofeng first went into seclusion, the myriad Daos scattered within him have now been neatly organized, one after another, intertwined to form a dense network of Daos. Behind Jiang Haofeng, a nine-colored Dao Wheel hangs behind his head, with profound and mysterious Dao auras rising from it, revealing all the myriad Daos that Jiang Haofeng cultivates.

This Wheel of the Great Dao is the result of Jiang Haofeng's several days of seclusion.

No, to be precise, it's about planning a harvest that spans many kalpas.

From the time he came to the depths of chaos to go into seclusion until now, only three years have passed in the mortal realm. This amount of time is not a particularly long time for ordinary mortals, let alone for Jiang Haofeng, a quasi-saint with an endless lifespan who has already lived for two kalpas.

This amount of time is practically nothing more than a blink of an eye.

It's simply impossible to achieve a breakthrough in such a short period of time through seclusion.

Indeed, it seems that Jiang Haofeng only took three years to create this Great Dao Wheel from scratch, based on the myriad Great Daos he cultivated!
In reality, Jiang Haofeng had been preparing for this step for many eons. Even before he condensed the Three Bodies and Nine Corpses, Jiang Haofeng had already been considering this method of proving the Dao.

He then spent countless eons comprehending the Great Dao and deducing the probability of this method's feasibility.

In the mere three years before his eyes, Jiang Haofeng had already calculated countless days.

These three years were not a period of seclusion for Jiang Haofeng, but rather a time to "write down" the answers he had been deducing for countless years!
The creation of this Great Dao Wheel was something Jiang Haofeng had planned long ago. Otherwise, even if he had been given three Huiyuan (a unit of time) to create it, let alone three years, it would have been impossible for him to create a Great Dao Wheel from scratch.

Even though we've done countless simulations beforehand, simulations are still just simulations, and there's still a big difference between them and reality.

Right now, Jiang Haofeng is stuck on the last step of the penultimate step, or rather, the last half step!

If this problem is solved, the final step will be a piece of cake and can be completed easily.

According to Jiang Haofeng's previous deductions, his path to enlightenment would begin by absorbing all the Dao into his body, then suppressing them with the Great Dao of Power, then weaving the Great Dao Wheel with the myriad Daos, and finally breaking through the Great Dao of Power of a Saint-level being with the Great Dao Wheel formed by the fusion of the myriad Daos, thus completely proving himself a Saint!
He proved his own Dao through the myriad paths, becoming the third sage in the primordial world to prove his Dao through his own Great Dao.

It may seem like there are four steps, but the last step is nothing. Once the Wheel of the Great Dao is completed, breaking the Great Dao of Power is a piece of cake.

With the fusion of all powers, Jiang Haofeng was confident that he could fight even Pangu from back then. Even if he was no match for him, he could at least put up a fierce battle.

The Great Dao of Power on Jiang Haofeng's body was merely the true form of Pangu summoned through the Daoist essence of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

The difference between Pangu's true form and Pangu's original self is enormous.

Pangu's true form can only deal with the Heavenly Saints in the primordial world. This is the strongest it can be. This level of power can be easily broken once the Wheel of the Great Dao is completed.

However, Jiang Haofeng is currently facing a problem: all the myriad Daos he has comprehended have been incorporated into the Dao Wheel.

However, the Wheel of the Great Dao still feels incomplete and cannot truly achieve its goal.

Just like knitting a sweater, if the loose threads at the beginning and end are not handled well, it may look extremely beautiful, but it will fall apart in an instant with just a gentle pull.

Currently, this is the situation with Jiang Haofeng's Great Dao Wheel. Jiang Haofeng's own Great Dao has been fully incorporated into it, but it cannot be completely perfected, and other Great Daos can still be incorporated into it.

This is the problem Jiang Haofeng is currently facing.

It seems simple: all you have to do is comprehend the Great Dao that Jiang Haofeng hasn't yet grasped and then incorporate it into the system.

But the problem is that the Great Dao has three thousand paths, and the three thousand here is a figurative number, representing infinity!

The Great Dao is boundless and endless; every Great Dao can give rise to several or even dozens of other Great Daos.

Take swordsmanship as an example. There are sharp swords, swords of killing, swords of gentleness, swords of weight... Each sword path, in the end, leads to a whole new path.

The Great Dao is countless, like the boundless chaos, without end or boundary.

No matter how fast Jiang Haofeng comprehends things or how much he learns, he can never learn it all.

Without comprehending all the Great Daos, the Wheel of the Great Dao is incomplete and cannot be fully formed, thus preventing Jiang Haofeng from attaining sainthood.

This is the predicament Jiang Haofeng is currently facing.

This predicament had been troubling Jiang Haofeng for two years. With previous deductions as a foundation, Jiang Haofeng completed the compilation of the myriad great paths he had come to understand in less than a year.

Jiang Haofeng spent the rest of the time thinking about how to solve this problem.

In the past two years, Jiang Haofeng has comprehended more than forty kinds of Great Dao because of this, but as mentioned before, the Great Dao is boundless, so having more or less forty kinds of Great Dao has no impact.

According to Jiang Haofeng's deduction, if one wants to attain enlightenment, one cannot strive to comprehend all the Great Daos, as that is impossible; one must only seek enlightenment in other areas.

The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and one is hidden away!

The Great Way cannot be perfect, so we should not seek perfection, but rather imperfection!

The Great Way is flawed!

This is the true path to enlightenment.

But while the plan sounds simple, truly understanding its principles and enabling Jiang Haofeng to attain sainthood is an incredibly difficult task.

This short sentence contains boundless profound meaning, and it is extremely difficult to comprehend it.

Jiang Haofeng was stuck at this point. After two years of contemplation, coupled with his previous understanding of the myriad Daos, Jiang Haofeng vaguely grasped something, but he couldn't see it clearly in the clouds, always separated by a layer of membrane.

At this moment, various great Daos were constantly evolving in Jiang Haofeng's mind, and the surrounding phenomena also changed accordingly, with profound Daoist charm enveloping the entire secluded cultivation place.

Just then, a beam of clear light suddenly appeared in the previously empty and silent void. Within the light, an old man dressed in a Taoist robe stepped forward, holding a whisk.

As Jiang Haofeng, who was in seclusion, seemed to sense something, the surging strange phenomena around him stopped for a moment, and the next moment, Jiang Haofeng opened his eyes, a nine-colored mysterious light flashing in his eyes.

Nine-colored mystical light shone brightly, containing countless profound principles, and exuding a terrifying power that made people's hearts tremble!
At the same time, as Jiang Haofeng opened his eyes, the Great Dao Wheel behind him instantly burst forth with dazzling light. The nine-colored light illuminated the heavens and the earth, easily breaking through the barrier of the Two Elements Micro Dust Array. Endless nine-colored profound light illuminated the void, and the entire depths of chaos were transformed into nine colors.

The commotion was so great that even the Heavenly Saints far away in the Primordial World felt it and turned their gazes over. However, because of the great distance and their inability to leave the Primordial World, they saw nothing.

Hongjun sensed the immense power in the void, comparable to his own, and a look of amazement appeared on his face.
"Amazing!" (End of Chapter)
