"Impressive. Truly impressive!"
Donghuang Taiyi's voice came from the sky. He was still as relaxed as ever, but there was a hint of mockery in his words. "As expected of the Yang Jian who killed the Golden Venerables. You're already invincible even though you haven't become a Saint. That Lord did not bring forward the time for us to appear because of you."
Yang Jian snorted coldly but did not chase after him.
Donghuang Taiyi had obviously used some kind of Saint-level substitute or other mystical ability. Moreover, he had already returned to the entrance of the Nether Stream.
Although Yang Jian had an escape technique, the Cosmic Escape Technique could not appear beside the other party without any warning. The other party had enough opportunities to escape.
The only opportunity to kill Donghuang Taiyi was just now. Yang Jian had also seized it, but it had not really worked.
However, he should have made the other party pay a certain price.
The cultivators of the Primordial World did not understand the dazzling outcome. From the appearance of Donghuang Taiyi, to the appearance of Yang Jian, to the killing of Donghuang Taiyi, to the safe and sound of Donghuang Taiyi appearing in the depths of the North Sea …
The process was a little mysterious. It really made people feel like they were in a fog.
"You're a Demon Emperor. Do you have so much nonsense?"
Yang Jian only said that. He put away the three pointed, double-edged spear, turned around, and walked behind the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning and the Grandmaster of Heaven. He stood there with his eyes lowered. He looked completely different from the thunderous divine might he had when he had attacked.
Donghuang Taiyi was silent for a while. He stood in the depths of the North Sea and looked at the Primordial World. Then, he sighed softly.
"Forget it. It's useless to talk to you about this. Since the dead have returned, why don't the living leave?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Donghuang Taiyi turned into a black gas and sank into the North Sea in the blink of an eye. With a whistling sound, he gradually disappeared.
The world quietened down once again, but the cultivators' Dao hearts could no longer be at peace.
The two Saints looked at each other. The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning also sighed. His voice appeared in the hearts of the cultivators.
"The Primordial World is about to face a great calamity. This time, all living beings, from Saints to mortals, Kunlun, Scales, Feathers, and the Six Paths will be in the calamity. The powerful enemy is under the North Sea. Although he is strong, he is not undefeatable. You must know that there is always a chance of survival in the unseen world. Three days later, we will fight for this chance of survival for the countless living beings. "
The group of cultivators shouted in unison, "Yes, Sage's decree!"
Countless cultivators bowed to the Saint, and the uneasiness in their hearts reduced by more than half.
The two Saints tried to persuade the cultivators, then returned to the illusory land and guarded the side of the Heavenly Dao.
Yang Jian stayed there for half a day before he was called back by the Saint.
Now, if Yang Jian were to go into seclusion again, Yang Jian would not be able to settle down.
The other party had already made it clear that he had brought forward the date of the plan several times because he didn't want Yang Jian to truly become powerful.
Simply put, as long as Yang Jian had the slightest chance of breaking through to the Omnipotent Realm, the Omnipotent Realm expert would come knocking and kill Yang Jian directly.
At that moment, there were only two paths in front of Yang Jian.
The first path was to not participate in the battle for the time being and let the Saints of the Primordial World deal with it. He would continue to enter seclusion to comprehend and see if he could break through the last limit. Then, he would try to become a Saint with two techniques at the same time.
That path was the path that the Pan God had chosen back then. However, he could not tolerate the supreme experts slaughtering living beings halfway and stood up to fight the supreme experts to the death.
The second path was to participate in the battle directly and use the battle to nurture the battle. Not only would he seek a breakthrough in the battle.
Yang Jian was more inclined to the second choice. After all, the first choice had too many uncertainties. Moreover, Yang Jian knew that he could not endure for too long like the Pan God.
Moreover, from the outcome, the Pan God had indeed lost back then.
It was an indisputable fact that the supreme experts had lived and the Pan God had died.
Therefore, when the Saints persuaded Yang Jian to continue entering seclusion and call him when there was a crisis, Yang Jian shook his head and refused.
"Even if I enter seclusion again, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to break through the final realm." Yang Jian smiled bitterly. "It's not that I'm belittling myself. Actually, after sitting in the Chaos Bell for ten thousand years, I have already understood my path. The limit of the eighth level of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art is not something that can be comprehended by sitting in meditation. There are no meridians that can be found. It should be an extreme sublimation and a leap in oneself. "
Everyone present was in the Saint realm. They were the strongest people in the Primordial World. When Yang Jian said that, they naturally understood what realm Yang Jian was referring to.
That was actually the essence of becoming a Saint.
Yuding Zhenren said, "Actually, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself. This is not a responsibility that you should shoulder."
"That's right." The Grandmaster of Heaven smiled bitterly. "Even if we lose this battle, it's still because my two brothers and I trusted Qianhong so easily back then. We destroyed our Dao bases and fell into his trap."
"Alright." I closed my eyes and did not say anything.
The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning looked at Yang Jian with a gratified gaze and said, "You've already done well. Three days later, the battle will arrive. If you can't fight, take care."
Yang Jian smiled bitterly and said, "I can't say that I will live and die with the Primordial World. However, Grandmasters, don't worry. I will definitely do my best."
Daoist Tian Yan chuckled. "Don't talk about that. Aren't we losing before the battle? Why don't we be more careful? If the supreme experts don't keep their word and say that they will start the battle three days later, they will secretly send troops tomorrow and catch us off guard. That will be really troublesome. "
Daoist Jie Yin nodded slightly. "That's right. We have to be on guard."
"May I ask Saint Jie Yin, is there any outcome regarding the matter of the Buddhist Sect's Xuanzang?" Yang Jian asked.
Jie Yin pondered for a while and said, "Xuanzang's soul has been tampered with. I personally checked just now, but I could not find any traces of the other party. However, this matter does not have much to do with the Buddhist Sect. The Buddhist Sect should be the most injured when the Journey to the West is disrupted. "
"We need to unite against the outside world," the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning said. "The Buddhist Sect is also a pillar of the Primordial World. We have to contribute in the battle later. The matter regarding Xuanzang should have been secretly done by the subordinates of the supreme experts. Don't ruin the plan of the Primordial World because of such demons and monsters. "
Yang Jian was helpless. He could only lower his head and say, "I understand."
"Yang Jian, don't walk around for the next few days. Just wait in the Celestial Court," said the Grandmaster of Heaven. "Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the Celestial Court will hold a Heaven-Worshipping Ceremony. The Jade Emperor will pray for the Three Realms."
Pray?
Yang Jian was also taken aback, blinking his eyes in bewilderment.
Before the Great Tribulation, the Jade Emperor prayed to the heavens? Who did he pray to? Wasn't the Jade Emperor the "Heaven" that the Human Emperor worshipped?
Yuding Zhenren explained briefly that the Jade Emperor had used such a ritual to guide the power of the Heavenly Dao to augment the army.
In the Celestial Court, there were legitimate gods and immortals. They would represent the Heavenly Dao in battle and receive the most blessings from the Heaven and Earth. The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals were the generals of the Celestial Court. They were also the "regular army" recognized by the Heavenly Dao. They received many blessings.
As for the other cultivators who participated in the battle, as long as they were dedicated to the Primordial World, killing foreign enemies and eliminating evil demons, they would also receive the protection of the Heaven and Earth powers.
Although they could not increase the strength of the various cultivators, they could also turn calamities into blessings and protect their true bodies. They could increase their combat strength greatly.
That was probably the advantage of home ground.
The Heavenly Dao, the Saints, the living beings of the Primordial World …
In this Great Tribulation, all of the above were people who would face the tribulation.
Yang Jian sighed softly. When he saw that the Saints had begun to study the array formation, he bowed and bowed before leaving.
He rushed back to the Jade Spring Mountain.
Previously, when he rushed to the North Ocean, he had only instructed Zi Xia not to wander around. He did not say anything to the monkey. After he rushed back, he saw Zi Xia standing quietly by the cliff. He did not see where the monkey had gone.
Yang Jian landed beside Zi Xia. The latter was not alarmed. She was still looking at the colorful clouds in the sky.
"Ahem."
"Uh, Master!" Zi Xia hurriedly put away her melancholy expression and called out to her master with a smile. She ran over and held Yang Jian's arm. "Master, where did you go?! Why did you suddenly leave? "
"I went to fight the bad guys. Where's the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal?"
"Junior apprentice-brother, he's gone." Violet Cloud pursed her lips, then said somewhat disapprovingly, "Master, you forbade me from telling him who Patriarch Subhuti is. He's so much more powerful than I am; naturally, I wouldn't dare to stop him from leaving."
He left?
Yang Jian searched with his spiritual senses, but there was no trace of Sun Wukong.
He left …
"That's good," Yang Jian muttered softly. "He already has a knot in his heart. If he can survive this, his cultivation level will naturally improve. If he can't … Let him be. The world can't wait for him to grow up."
"Master, what's wrong?"
"The supreme expert has sent someone to issue a challenge. The battle will be held in three days." Yang Jian looked at Zi Xia with a gentle gaze and said, "I'll send you to Xinke's place. The battle will be held later. You can't mess around."
"Oh!" Zi Xia agreed unhappily. She tiptoed and smiled sweetly at Yang Jian. "Master, you will definitely defeat all the powerful enemies!"
"Where did you get your confidence from?" Yang Jian chuckled and tapped her forehead. Just as he was about to ride a cloud, he turned to look at the Golden Aurora Cave and the lotus pond in front of the cave.
After parting today, he did not know if he would have the chance to come here again.
Thinking back to the past, when he was still a young man, he had once cultivated mystic arts here and listened to his master talk about the Primordial World and all sorts of things.
Now, in a flash, it was as if it had gone from morning to dusk.
There was no banquet in the world that would last forever. There was no character in the world that would never leave. Even the world would welcome its end.
Then, what would not change?
Yang Jian closed his eyes and sensed for a while. Then, he could not help but laugh. He turned around and left the mountain. He flew out of the array formation that Yuding Zhenren had set up back then, passed by the extremely prosperous back mountain of the Immortal Sect, and headed towards the outer space.
The pursuit of longevity, the pursuit of the Saint realm, the pursuit of the supreme realm, and the pursuit of true immortality were actually the pursuit of an unchanging process.
However, this unchanging process violated the most fundamental meaning of living beings …
Back then, the reason why Du Bi drew his saber against his best friend was because the Eternal God King had reached the end of his unchanging path and established the Eternal Divine Kingdom that would never change …
Unchanging.
Unmoving.
Gradually, Yang Jian's thoughts became more active. He gained some enlightenment, but it had nothing to do with the Eight-Nine Arcane Art.
The realm that the Eight-Nine Arcane Art pursued was actually the Dao of Unchanging.
If he maintained the same state, he would naturally be invincible.
At that moment, what Yang Jian had comprehended was the strange Dao runes that were related to the "Strength Stacking" mystical ability. The Dao runes seemed to exist and were illusory. However, at that moment, Yang Jian felt its existence for the first time.
However, Yang Jian sensed its existence and understood how unfathomable this Great Dao was.
If he wanted to explore and cultivate this Dao, he had to start from the Saint realm.
This …
He could only say that he was indeed Du Bi.
He shook his head and chuckled. Just as Zi Xia was about to ask her master what was wrong, the two of them had already entered the Chaos Sea.
Rows of majestic Spirit army appeared in front of them …
