Ning Cheng didn't bother to beat around the bush and said directly, "I heard that Sha Xun, the one I killed before, was the fourth under Holy Buddha Qu Pu?"
Ancestor Di Hong's mouth twitched. What do you mean by 'heard'? You said it to Sha Xun several times, yet you still heard it.
Now that Ning Cheng asked, he didn't dare to answer back. He still pretended to have heard it and replied politely, "That's indeed the case. Sha Xun was the fourth under Holy Buddha Qu Pu. He had a very noble status in the Western Universe."
"Oh, is Holy Buddha Qu Pu very powerful?" Ning Cheng asked casually as he picked up the teacup.
Ancestor Di Hong didn't care about Ning Cheng's nonchalance and said cautiously, "I haven't seen Holy Buddha Qu Pu, but his strength shouldn't be any weaker than Dao Lord Ning …"
Ning Cheng looked at Ancestor Di Hong's expression and knew that the other party didn't really mean what he said. Perhaps in Hong's heart, his cultivation was far inferior to the Buddha Lord of the West.
Ning Cheng didn't care. He came here to inquire about information. Holy Buddha Qu Pu could fight against Five Elements Sacred Master and didn't die, which meant that he must be very powerful. He wouldn't believe it if someone said that he was far inferior to the Western Buddha Lord.
"… In the Western Universe, Holy Buddha Qu Pu is the master. I heard that three of the nine Venerables under him perished during the Creation War, leaving only six Venerables … "
"Wait …" Ning Cheng raised his hand and interrupted Hong. "Dao Friend Hong, you said that three people died in the Great Creation War. Didn't Holy Buddha Qu Pu participate?"
Hong replied, "When the Great Creation War started, the Buddha Lord indeed didn't participate. It's not that he didn't want to participate, but I heard that he was seriously injured and couldn't participate at all. "
"Who could injure him?" Ning Cheng had already guessed what was going on, but he still asked.
Hong explained with a respectful expression, "Before the Creation Great War begins, there will be an even more terrifying war. Those who participated in that war were the most powerful powerhouses from countless planes. Among them were Five Elements Sacred Master, Styx River Heavenly Venerate, Light and Darkness Sacred Master, Palace Master Limitless, Daoist Zixiao, and Holy Buddha Qu Pu … "
"Daoist Zixiao also participated in that war?" Ning Cheng originally wanted to ask if the war started because of the World Tree, but when he heard about Purple Clouds, he could not help but put aside his original question.
Hong nodded and said, "I heard that when the battle started, only Daoist Zixiao was watching from the side and didn't intervene. The other experts fought until the heavens collapsed and the earth cracked. Even the planes and universes turned into dust. In that battle, the Five Elements Sacred Lord had been heavily injured, and it was rumored that he had died. Sage Buddha Qu Pu was also heavily injured in that battle and almost died. After all these years, he must have recovered from his injuries. "
"What about Sacred Master Light and Darkness, Palace Master Limitless and Heavenly Venerate Styx River?" Ning Cheng asked again.
Hong shook his head. "I'm not too sure either. According to the information passed down by the ancestors of the Sorcerer Tribe, these people were all severely injured. As for the outcome, I don't know."
"What is the purpose of this battle?" The information Ning Cheng got from Shen Yun was not necessarily reliable. Because of this, Ning Cheng wanted to confirm it with Hong.
Hong didn't answer directly but asked Ning Cheng, "I wonder if Dao Lord Ning has heard of the Chaos Realm?"
Ning Cheng nodded. "I've heard of the Chaos Realm, and I've even been there. Is it related to the Chaos Realm?"
"Yes, it is indeed related to the Chaos Realm. The Chaos Realm is the core of the vast universe when it first separated. There are top-notch treasures there. When the vast universe first separated, the Chaos Realm had four Good Fortune Treasures. They are the Good Fortune Mysterious Yellow Bead, the Good Fortune Indestructible Axe, the Good Fortune Golden Page and the Good Fortune Green Lotus … "
Ning Cheng interrupted Hong's words again. "Dao Friend Hong, Good Fortune is not the Four Treasures, but the Five Treasures."
Hong smiled slightly. "Good Fortune is indeed the Five Treasures, but the Good Fortune Jade Disc already had an owner when the universe first separated. That owner is Daoist Zixiao."
"This Zixiao has such a great origin?" Ji Heyi couldn't help but exclaim.
Hong seemed to be afraid that Daoist Zixiao would hear his discussion. He suddenly cupped his fists towards the void and said, "The universe is divided into Five Treasures. Sacred Masters run all over the sky. The West has Buddha Lord and Styx River has Xiu Tu. If you ask who is the master of the sky, Zixiao is the first."
Ning Cheng's expression changed. He had always thought that Daoist Zixiao was one of the owners of the Five Treasures. He was also one of the owners of the Five Treasures, which meant that he was on an equal footing with everyone else. Ning Cheng didn't expect Daoist Zixiao to have such a great origin, even before the universe. Even if it was just a rumor, it was still a bit outrageous.
"Dao Friend Hong, that Sacred Master shouldn't be referring to the Five Great Sacred Masters, right?" Ning Cheng thought that Itinerant Yi Ji and Xuanhuang Guyan might not be qualified to be included in this ballad.
Hong chuckled. "They aren't qualified. This Sacred Master refers to the Five Elements Sacred Master, Light and Darkness Sacred Master, and the Western Sacred Master."
Without waiting for Ning Cheng to ask, Hong took the initiative to explain, "The West not only has Sacred Buddha Qu Pu, but also a Sacred Master. He is also a powerful person, but there has been no news of him since."
Ning Cheng didn't need to ask anything to understand what was going on. The Western Sacred Master Qu Pu must have been a peerless powerhouse. With such a powerful existence in the West, how could they allow another Sacred Master to appear? Only one of the two could survive. Now that there was only one Sacred Master left, the outcome had already been decided.
"Dao Friend Hong, please continue to talk about what happened in the Chaos Realm." Ning Cheng could tell that Lai Hong didn't want to talk about the grievances between Western Sacred Master and Buddhist Master.
Hong nodded and added, "The most precious treasure in the Chaos Realm is not the Four Treasures of Creation, but a tree."
"Ancestral Emperor, are you talking about the chaos tree?" Ji Heyi couldn't help but ask. She had heard of the chaos tree too.
"No, this tree is called Builder Wood. Back then, when the Five-Element Sacred Master had obtained the World Tree, even though the Four Treasures of Creation had escaped from the chaotic Inner Realm, he had still focused all his energy on the World Tree. It's just that the World Tree's aura is too powerful. Even with Five-Element Divine Lord's strength, he wasn't able to completely conceal the World Tree's aura. In the end, many experts were attracted … "
"Did these people fight in the Chaos Inner Realm?" Ning Cheng immediately thought of the Creation Wood Nail in the Chaos Inner Realm.
Hong sighed and said, "If we were in the Chaos Realm, the Chaos Realm would have been smashed into pieces long ago. The Five-Element Divine Emperor knew that the Chaos Realm had an extremely important treasure, so he deliberately stayed away from the Chaos Realm. Although that great battle took place in the endless void, it destroyed too many domains and planes. I heard that the Five-Element Divine Emperor couldn't defeat the enemy in the end, so he turned the World Tree in his hands into countless World Tree Nails to attack the enemy. That's why both sides suffered heavy losses. "
Ning Cheng secretly nodded. The World Tree Nails in the Chaos Inner Realm should have penetrated the Chaos Inner Realm when the Five-Element Divine Emperor attacked.
Thinking of this, Ning Cheng felt even more shocked. He knew how hard the Chaos Inner Realm was and how powerful its laws were. If not for the Good Fortune Indestructible Axe and the cooperation of many experts, the Chaos Inner Realm wouldn't have been able to break through. Yet, the Five-Element Divine Lord's World Tree Nail could break through the endless void and enter the Chaos Inner Realm. How powerful was he?
No wonder the World Tree Nail wasn't discovered elsewhere. Without the obstruction of the Chaos Inner Realm, the World Tree Nail might have already passed through the endless void and the universe. Who knew where it would end up?
"After that battle, the vast universe fell silent. Later on, the Five Great Sacred Masters and the Ten Great Dao Lords rose. "Hong fell silent after speaking.
How many hot-blooded battles had taken place in the vast universe? How many experts had fought over them? However, there was no sign of the witch race.
"So, the first time the Gate of Good Fortune opened was after the rise of the Five Great Sacred Masters and the Ten Great Dao Lords?" Ning Cheng asked. He finally understood why no supreme-level experts like the Western Buddha Lord had come when the Gate of Good Fortune had opened.
Hong replied, "Yes. Rumor has it that after the Five Treasures of Good Fortune were gathered, the Gate of Good Fortune would open. The Five-Element Divine Lord obtained the World Tree and the other Four Treasures of Good Fortune escaped. In fact, it means that the Gate of Good Fortune is about to open. "
Ning Cheng cupped his fists towards Zu Di Hong and said, "Many thanks, Dao Friend Hong, for dispelling my doubts. I have one last question to ask. I wonder if Dao Friend Hong knows where to enter the Western Universe from? How far is it from here? "
Although he didn't ask Xing Xi to stay, Ning Cheng still felt that he had gained a lot this time. The things that Zu Di Hong mentioned were things that he didn't know before. These things held great significance to him.
Hong suddenly stood up and bowed to Ning Cheng with cupped fists. "The Western Universe isn't that far from my witch race. My witch race is at the edge of the Five-Element Universe. If we enter from this edge, with Dao Lord's speed, I estimate that we can reach the Western Universe in a few decades. "
After saying this, Hong's expression became even more respectful. "Dao Lord Ning, you know that my witch race is weak. The fourth Buddha Lord, Sasun, died in my witch race's Divine Magus Palace. My witch race can't explain this matter even if we have a lot of mouths. I hope that Dao Lord Ning can explain it to my witch race. Even if you leave behind a crystal ball … "
Ning Cheng sneered in his heart. No wonder Hong was so humble. It turned out that he was afraid of taking responsibility. It would be best if he stayed in the witch race to bear the consequences. However, Hong didn't dare to say this out loud. Therefore, he only dared to ask him to leave behind a crystal ball. Hong probably wanted him to curse the Western Buddha Lord in the crystal ball so that the witch race could get away with the crime of killing Sasun.
Hong wasn't a good person. If he hadn't come in time, even if Xing Xi hadn't come, Yu Qing would have been taken away by Sasun. Even if Hong wanted to protect the witch race, he still felt unhappy that Yu Qing had been thrown out to be used as a cultivation vessel.
Ning Cheng stood up and said indifferently, "So to go to the Western Universe, we have to pass through here. However, no one has been to the Western Universe before. Dao Friend Hong, you must have heard about it, right? The void at the edge of the universe isn't even as good as the chaotic void. There's no direction, so I don't think anyone will enter it. "
When Hong saw Ning Cheng stand up and immediately leave, he panicked. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "If the Five-Element Universe wants to go to the Western Universe, they indeed have to pass through our witch race. Not long ago, two people passed through the witch race and escaped into the void at the edge of the universe … Oh yes, my witch race has a realm monitoring array … "
As he spoke, Hong waved his hand and turned into a void screen.
Ning Cheng sighed. This witch race was really a cultivation genius. He didn't cultivate his Spiritual Force. How long had it been since he started cultivating his Spiritual Force? Ancestor Di Hong's Spiritual Force was also so powerful.
"Wait … Dao Friend Hong, show me the image of the two people who escaped again." Ning Cheng stared at the void screen and said excitedly.
The two people who escaped were very blurry, but Ning Cheng felt that one of them looked like Cang Wei.
