Pei Tu Gou
Chapter 916 Body Refinement in the Long River
Countless eyes were fixed on this place from afar, filled with astonishment and shock.
Many of them had heard of this supreme treasure of the Divine Court, born from chaos. Some, like the Emperors of Cang Jin, had even personally seen the Da Dao Ji, and knew that this heavenly book possessed intelligence and great supernatural powers.
But no one could have imagined that a magical artifact would dare to impersonate a Saint's advent, and even attempt to bewitch the Buddha, a rising star of Buddhism, into destroying the world!
Indeed, if that Buddha hadn't noticed something was amiss, it might have succeeded!
It was because of the overwhelming shock that when the void shattered and the celestial sounds descended, there was a momentary daze, and no one reacted for a time.
Until an ethereal and sacred aura spread out, permeating the heavens and earth at an astonishing speed.
Only then did the great cultivators of the Four Seas and Eight Desolations, and the many unknown lands, recover from their shock and look up to the sky.
In the shattered and mottled void, countless brilliant lights flickered, and fingers like five heavenly swords merged into an indescribable giant palm.
Amidst the myriad auspicious lights and immortal rays, it slowly descended.
In an instant, an irresistible force filled the universe, pressing down on even the smallest and most insignificant places, sealing the changes of the void, the alternation of light and shadow, and even the flow of time and space.
Like the hand of a God-King.
Truly like the palm of a Celestial Emperor!
"Who are you?!"
The Emperor's shadow, transformed by 'Di Yan' or the Da Dao Ji, was startled. It never expected that there would be someone in this world who could avoid his perception and dare to attack him.
After the initial shock came a great warning!
'This person is here for me?'
As the Emperor's shadow pondered, it suddenly emitted infinite light, as if thousands of waterfalls of divine light erupted from its most minute parts.
Whirr!
The divine light was like the sea.
As it surged, countless light and shadows evolved along with it.
"That is..."
A great cultivator's heart trembled violently, and he actually sensed his own aura within the boundless light and shadows.
No, it wasn't just his own aura!
This great cultivator was filled with disbelief. In that instant, he saw countless scenes within the boundless light and shadows.
He saw a great demon standing on a mountain peak, roaring at the sky...
He saw a great god treading the sky, looking down indifferently, waving his hand, with banners like a forest behind him...
He saw a Buddha walking in the sky, scattering endless light, and countless oases were born in the vast sea...
...
Gods, Buddhas, demons, devils, ghosts!
This sea of divine light was extremely vast, and the light and shadows that erupted from it contained countless heroes and geniuses from ancient and modern times!
Among them, there was not only him but also many familiar figures, whose names were known but whose faces were never seen.
Only a few people stood high enough and saw clearly enough.
What sea of divine light was this?
It was clearly a page from a heavenly book, so large that it was impossible to describe!
The endless light and shadows leaping within the sea of divine light were precisely the changes in the world and the imprints of gods and demons recorded in this book!
Buzz!
The moment the heavenly book unfolded, the world paled in comparison.
Countless people watched in shock as the sea of divine light began to boil, to boil violently.
And at the same time that the jade-like giant palm descended, those god and demon figures, as if materialized, stepped out of the sea of divine light and came into the world.
Turning illusion into reality!
Turning the false into the true?!
"Ancestor, you still made your move..."
Beneath the bodhi tree, Gautama's expression was slightly complicated as he gazed at the jade-like palm. In his current state, there was little in the world that could escape his notice.
From his birth until now, he had never truly met his Ancestor, but he naturally recognized the owner of the undisguised palm at a glance.
There was already a tacit understanding between them.
He would act, and he was not surprised, nor would he have the slightest accident.
However, was it too early...?
"Eight hundred years is still too short after all..."
His expression was slightly complicated, and as he put his hands together, his heart became more and more peaceful, as if waiting for something.
Rumble!
Under the gaze of countless astonished and shocked eyes, those god and demon shadows, as if real, had already offered up countless magical treasures and countless supernatural powers the moment they stepped out of the river of divine light.
Transforming into torrents of supernatural powers and magical treasures, they bombarded the terrifying palm that had broken through the void.
The splayed fingers slowly descended, its momentum invisible, allowing the torrents of supernatural powers to bombard it.
It was as if the dark currents of the ocean were bombarding reefs, and the invisible breeze was patting divine peaks.
Unable to shake it in the slightest!
Whoosh!
As if only a fraction of a moment had passed, the giant palm had broken through the boundless torrent, and amid angry roars, it plunged into the boundless sea of divine light, seizing the Emperor's shadow, whose expression was filled with fury!
Da Dao Ji.
Those great supernatural powers, magical treasures, and spiritual treasures, all of which were extremely famous in the cultivation world, could not stop it in the slightest!
And only at this moment, the second voice after the appearance of the palm echoed between heaven and earth.
"Strong but scattered, great but ineffective! What is not yours will never belong to you!"
"Ah!"
The Emperor's shadow was furious, roaring, and the entire sea of divine light seemed to burn.
The sound of 'whirr' was like a tsunami and the collapse of the sky, as if trying to turn this page with all its might, but in the next instant, the giant palm had already stroked across the entire sea of divine light.
Like a scholar who had read poetry and books smoothing out wrinkled pages, or like a skilled female worker smoothing out the wrinkles on clothes.
So easily, the Da Dao Ji was suppressed?
Only then did everyone seem to wake up from a dream, looking back at the surroundings, filled with shock and horror.
Because, as the giant palm seized the Emperor's shadow, a large expanse of mist suddenly appeared between the heavens and the earth, as if the hazy veil covering the entire world had been lifted.
What golden lotuses springing from the earth, phoenixes soaring into the sky... even the Buddha's light that soared straight to the Big Dipper outside Sumeru, and the shadow of the Great Dragon Gate that appeared in the South Sea, were all not real!
All the great cultivators were silent, shocked that the Da Dao Ji had such means to deceive the world, and also terrified by the invincible power of the owner of the palm, who had captured the Emperor's shadow in one move.
What kind of power was this?
"How can you know how to turn the pages of the heavenly book?!"
Feeling the giant force that irresistibly sealed all dimensions, the Emperor's shadow was completely shocked.
It was born in chaos, not naturally, but from the Dao!
It exists in the world, but not in the world, but above the world. Its pages are endless, imprinting all the heroes and champions of the ages, and also recording the flow of time and the changes in ancient history since many epochs.
The weight of one page cannot be touched even by creation.
Only Saints can turn the pages. Apart from that, even the Five Emperors of the Divine Court, the Nine Reverends of the Daoist Sect, and the Three Great Buddhas of Buddhism have no power to touch its body.
It was as if they could not touch the essence of heaven and earth.
The difficulty of touching it is equivalent to merging with the Dao!
This person is definitely not a Saint. Even if he had planned it long ago and had the supernatural power to avoid his own imprints, how could he touch him?
This person,
Who exactly is he?!
"You want to suppress me?"
The doubts were not answered, and the Da Dao Ji became even more furious. Almost at the same time as the giant palm destroyed the supernatural powers and methods of the great supernatural power practitioners who had been imprinted on this page of the heavenly book at their peak, it resolutely burned the spirit of this 'Emperor's shadow'.
Unwilling!
Furious!
Utter disgrace!
It is a book born of the Dao, supremely noble, and even the Saints must treat it with courtesy. This person dared to capture him like this, which was simply naked humiliation.
Moreover, the pages of the heavenly book are almost infinite.
The page it lifted was only a page close to the present era, the most common and ordinary page. The countless pages representing the supreme strength of the various eras that it had imprinted had not yet shown the slightest bit.
Being suppressed like this, it was absolutely unwilling.
"Don't even think about it!"
Buzz!
In the next instant, endless and surging divine light flames burned in his eyes, and behind him, a desolate, ancient, and mysterious vertical pupil was reflected.
The vertical pupil was as large as a heavenly star, spanning the nine heavens, as deep as a starry sea, mysterious and endless, like the eye of the Imperial Heaven in legends. Anyone who saw this pupil felt a chill all over their body.
It was as if they were naked and exposed to the gaze of others.
"This is... Zhuzhao?!"
In a corner of the Northern Continent, the Candle Dragon Walker, holding the Investiture of the Gods, had a drastic change in expression, his heart full of disbelief.
He never expected that this Da Dao Ji actually had Zhuzhao imprinted on it, the natal supernatural power that only the Candle Dragon, one of the three great divine beasts of the creation of the world, besides himself, could display.
This is a Saint-level supernatural power!
"Zhuzhao illuminates the nine heavens, the eye of the law cannot be hidden!"
The sound of the incantation resounded throughout the universe.
"Di Yan!"
"Tian Huang!"
"Da Zizai!"
"Fan Yi!"
"Zhu Feng!"
"Tai Long!"
The colorless and terrifying flames tore apart the void of the universe like a substance, illuminating the boundless mist, even penetrating the tranquil time and space, the chaotic nothingness, and traversing boundless distances.
Illuminating the place where the person who wanted to capture him was:
"I will exchange the ultimate secret before the birth of the Imperial Heaven for you to kill this fiend!"
Calling out the names of the Saints is a taboo for countless cultivators!
Not only will divine thunder enough to cleave creation descend, but it is also very likely to attract the attention of the Saints.
Especially the latter, which even those close to the Saints must change their colors upon!
And at this time, the Da Dao Ji not only directly called out the names of the Saints but also proclaimed the names of the Six Saints to the public with a heaven-shaking and earth-shattering voice.
Rumble!
The heavenly pillars shook, as if collapsing.
A purple thunderbolt erupted with a light more dazzling than the great sun. At the same time that the divine fire pierced through the mist, it also illuminated a mysterious place that was originally impossible to touch with the naked eye or even divine consciousness.
Completely illuminated!
Whirr~
Yang Jian looked at the dark nothingness. First, he heard the sound of flowing water, and then he saw an indescribably grand river.
What is boundless and without end should be the sea.
But anyone who sees this vast ocean thinks it is a river.
It is a river that is boundless, covers all realms, and covers the beginning and the end... of the river of time and space!
No one can see the face of the river of time and space clearly. Even the Five Emperors of the Divine Court, Yang Jian, Gautama, the Sumeru Buddha, and others can only see a corner of the river of time and space.
Divine thunder, Zhuzhao, and the light of heaven and earth combined to illuminate a corner of the long river.
There, a ray of purple light appeared.
In the hazy purple light, a white-clothed Daoist sat in it, and the滔滔 river flowed past him without any damage to his body.
On the contrary, under the scouring of the long river, which was enough to destroy the heavens and the stars at a glance, it was like a dusty pearl being wiped away, becoming brighter, more transparent, and more dazzling.
That Daoist...
"What a Da Dao Ji..."
An Qi Sheng, holding an invisible heavenly book in his hand and placing it flat on his knees, sighed softly and slowly raised his head.
His gaze went upstream, passing through pieces of ancient history, looking towards the highest point. Vaguely, he saw six indescribable terrifying existences under the illumination of the Zhuzhao flame.
Looking at this time and space:
"Finally,
I've caught you!"
