Chapter 2031: Unexcelled

The Godking of the Western Paradise had reincarnated many times and cultivated all types of buddha daos. His main dao was the dao of anatta, and he sought great freedom. He didn’t exist within the heaven and earth yet he was everywhere. What level of a concept was this? He wanted to transcend everything and become the lord of this heaven and earth.

He knew very well how difficult it was to advance another step at his current level. The difficulty was as tough as ascending to the sky. The dao of godkings depended on the number of constellations they could connect with. They then had to fuse their insights together, heightening their mastery of their daos and establish an unprecedented path to climb higher.

The so-called nine astral souls and nine law attributes was the pathway leading to the heavenly deity realm. If one followed that direction, they would be able to reach the heavenly deity realm and even nearing the godking realm if their potentials were high enough. But there are still innate differences between heavenly deities and godkings. For godking-level existences, which of them didn’t depend on their heaven-defying comprehension abilities or lucky opportunities to reach their level? All of them only had one goal, they wanted to break the original constraint the nine heavenly layers imposed on them. Only through transcendence would they be able to truly verify their daos and rise even higher.

Yue Changkong gained the dao of evil, allowing him to control evil beings. The Grand Devil Lord gained mastery of the dao of heaven devil. Godking Desolate could devour the constellations of the nine heavenly layers. The Imperishable Heaven Lord gained mastery of the dao of imperishability. Qin Wentian was even more terrifying. He obtained the inheritance of Godking Xi and he could connect with all the constellations in the starry space. He understood that only this was the true direction leading to the ultimate grand dao.

If one wanted to transcend the nine heavens, one first has to gain control of the power of all constellations in the nine heavenly layers. If not, if you couldn’t even control the constellations here, why is there still a need to speak of transcendence?

The Buddhist Sovereign already knew that the opportunity for transcendence would soon arrive. Also, his comprehension over the various daos was also approaching the point of transcendence. He was just a step away, he was now very close to it. This war was the ultimate war for supremacy. It was also his war for transcendence. If he missed this opportunity, it was unknown how many more years he had to wait for the next one.

“BOOM!” The Grand Devil Lord clenched his hands into fists as a terrifying might erupted from him. His eyes were like the constellations in the sky and when his gaze landed on people, Qin Wentian and the rest felt their souls trembling.

“If you all are willing to submit and become a part of me, I can allow a hint of your consciousness to exist, allowing you to witness the scenery at the peak.” The Grand Devil Lord spoke. It felt like he didn’t place these four powerful experts in his eyes at all.

“The heavenly dao is eternal and unchanging. Before transcendence, no one would be able to see everything in the future. You can’t do it as well. If not, you wouldn’t have been heavily injured back then.” The Imperishable Heaven Lord spoke. The Grand Devil Lord coldly laughed, “As expected of the Imperishable Heaven Lord. Things are as you said, there’s indeed no one who can foretell everything in the future. Even given my current cultivation base, I still cannot see everything. However, even so, with my insights into the dao of fate, I can still pry into heavenly secrets and see some of the things that would happen.”

“In that case, can you see our fates?” Qin Yuanfeng calmly spoke. The Grand Devil Lord glanced at Qin Yuanfeng as a cold smile appeared on his face but he didn’t reply to Qin Yuanfeng. In the air, countless constellations cast their light down onto the Grand Devil Lord.

“Imperishable. For the dao I’m cultivating, I’m only one step away. Now after gaining control of your dao and Yue Changkong’s dao, my dao is perfect. Thank you.” The Grand Devil Lord calmly spoke. Earlier, he just devoured Yue Changkong but he actually said that he had already gained control of Yue Changkong’s dao. This speed was simply incredible but it was very possible for the Buddha Sovereign to achieve this. His cultivation base has already reached an unfathomable level, it was impossible for them to estimate how strong he was. He reincarnated many times and cultivated all the buddha daos. Buddha daos had always been extremely mysterious and powerful. They include the dao of karma, the dao of reincarnation and the dao of fate.

Hence, it wasn’t strange that the Buddha Sovereign could do this.

He stared up at the boundless starry space as countless illusory figures suddenly appeared at this moment. These figures seemed endless in number. Many such figures appeared on each constellation and their cultivation bases ranged from high to low, and their ages varied as well.

“Is it fate or karma?” The grim reaper’s eyes instantly became extremely cold. For the countless constellations in the nine heavenly layers, each constellation would have countless cultivators connected to it. If this is the case, karma would be formed. The cultivators who condensed astral souls from the constellations would surely be connected to it.

At this moment, the countless constellations cascaded starlight downwards, towards the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

Within the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, countless lives raised their heads. In one of the random streets, an immortal-foundation cultivator frowned in puzzlement as he spoke, “What’s going on? I’m not cultivating but why did my constellation suddenly cascade its light down on me?”

“Did something happen?” The people beside him were shocked as well. They glanced at the surroundings and discovered to their shock that the same thing happened to everyone. Their hearts couldn’t help but pound violently.

“Are the skies changing?” Someone murmured.

It’s rumored that in the Heaven Region, the ultimate war for supremacy to decide the future of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms was currently occurring. However, the war was a matter between those supreme experts and hegemonic powers, it was too far away for ordinary people like them.

But could this phenomenon be because of that?

Within heaven and earth, boundless starlight cascaded down everywhere. It felt like the nine astral rivers in the nine heavenly layers were being turned topsy turvy. The entire world was shrouded in resplendent and beautiful light.

At this very moment, the hearts of everyone pounded violently. After that, it was like their souls flew out of their bodies. Their consciousnesses were floating towards an extremely faraway place, high up in the starry skies. They continued to float upwards and could see the resplendent nine heavenly layers, and they saw the figures of the supreme experts standing here, including an incomparably holy buddha who was fighting against four powerful evil devils. These four evil devils wanted to destroy the sky. The holy buddha wanted to save all of them. They had to lend their power to the holy buddha to aid him for victory.

Similar thoughts like these flashed through the hearts of the multitude of cultivators, entrenched deep in their hearts. They began to provide their power, their faith, and their fates.

Hence, on the battlefield, boundless reflection of light rays shone upon the Grand Devil Lord, connecting with him. At this moment, the Grand Devil Lord could control the fates of everyone. Not only merely for the western world army, he now truly controlled the multitude of lives in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

“Did you all believe that you can resist?” The Grand Devil Lord stared at Qin Wentian and the others as he spoke. Qin Wentian and the others instantly released their auras, their expressions were unprecedentedly heavy. This war was the final war, and was also incomparably dangerous because their opponent was truly just a step away from transcendence. His dao could connect him with the lives and fates of everyone in the world. It was too terrifying. Who else in this world could stop him?

Right now to Qin Wentian and the rest, this war no longer merely concerned their lives and deaths.

In order to aid the hostages of the western world army, Hua Taixu sacrificed himself to his dao, creating the true cycle of samsara. No one expected the Buddha Sovereign to grow even stronger.

“It’s time to conquer and unite the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.” The Grand Devil Lord calmly spoke. His expression changed as his devil intent towered up into the sky. At this moment, golden light radiated from him, the buddhic light fused with the devil intent as both buddha and devil were in one body.

As the sound of his voice faded, Qin Wentian and the others felt an extremely powerful might directly boring down on their souls. At the next moment, their fates and souls seemed about to fall under the control of their enemy. Such power was truly too tyrannical. The two bodies of Qin Wentian merged back into one but he could still feel that overwhelming pressure boring down on his soul.

Beiming Youhuang’s beautiful eyes stared fixedly at the Godking of the Western Paradise. She felt some regret. It was her battle with him that allowed him to steal her dao of souls, which made him even more terrifying. She summoned the ancient wills of Ancient Azure Mystic as well as the powers of their souls as she aimed an attack at the Buddha Sovereign. Reflected in the air, two illusory figures appeared. One was Beiming Youhuang, and another was the Godking of the Western Paradise whose countenance was blurry, a fusion of buddha and devil. Both were clashing in the air.

“BOOM!” An explosive blast rang out, Beiming Youhuang directly coughed out blood. She, who was originally injured, suffered even more injuries now. The blurry figure’s soul energy transformed into a mouth of devouring, aiming to devour Beiming Youhuang’s soul. At this moment, Qin Wentian’s soul energy gushed forth, transforming into a giant buddha law body that manifested powerful dao attacks. A countless number of buddhic spacetime sword attacks were slashed out, forcing the soul energy of the Godking of the Western Paradise to retreat. Only then did Beiming Youhuang manage to break free. Her pale expression grew increasingly unsightly as her aura weakened.

“You want to protect her? Who can you protect?” The Godking of the Western Paradise, who was a fusion of buddha and devil, coldly laughed. He turned his gaze towards the horizons, that location was the place where Mo Qingcheng and the others were at. In the next instant, boundless starlight rained there, resembling beams of fate. Mo Qingcheng and the others all felt an irresistible force boring down on them.

Qin Wentian’s expression grew extremely ugly to behold. He then spoke, “Let us go.”

As the sound of his voice faded, terrifying spatial fluctuations enveloped the people around him. Space and time twisted, they directly appeared beside Mo Qingcheng and the others. Qin Wentian stared at the skies as his eyes were cold to the extreme. The light from countless constellations under his will also cascaded down, enveloping this area to prevent the daos of others from invading.

“What should I do?” Qin Wentian silently mused, feeling extremely anxious. This opponent was too powerful. He could attack anywhere he wanted to with just a thought. To the Godking of the Western Paradise, the concept of distance doesn’t exist. With the aid of the constellations in the nine heavenly layers, his attacks could envelop boundless space, even reaching to the ground-level of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms from all the way up here. How heaven-defying was that? When his will could directly envelop the entire Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, it would indicate that he obtained true transcendence. That was also what Godking Xi had been pursuing. At that point of time, he would truly have surpassed the nine heavenly layers!
