Through the raging earth, fire, water, and wind, Mengqi could only vaguely see the Gyeongun and its surrounding lights and golden lamps. Other than that, everything else was covered.
When he retracted his gaze, he vaguely felt that the Heavenly Lord Yuanshi was looking at him. There was no sadness or joy in his eyes.
After waiting for a long time, there was no change. Mengqi engraved the mark here and completed the journey of turning back time. He pushed the traces of his existence in the Nine Serenities back to the time of creation and became an ancient creature that witnessed the entire history of the Nine Serenities. A real ancient creature!
Of course, his consciousness was not like the real Nirvana Realm, which was already outside the river of time and could exist in every moment of the past. It could only be transferred between the imprints left in history. It did not have much impact on actual combat, but the essence was completely different. It was one of the differences between fake and real, one of the differences between relying on the Nine Serenities and one's own ability.
Mengqi's consciousness did not directly transfer back to the current node. Instead, he searched the history of the Nine Serenities and arrived at a certain era.
According to what Xiaosang said before she temporarily left, if he could go back in time, he must come and see "him"!
The yellow-brown water rolled and flowed, full of death and oblivion. Countless wronged souls and evil spirits floated in the ripples, dragging everything that passed through this place, trying to wash away their memories and spirituality, trapping them in the Yellow Spring forever and never to be freed.
There was no accumulation of sand on this part of the river. The mountains on both sides were jagged and steep, like monsters lurking in the darkness. At this moment, a monk six feet tall, emaciated, benevolent, and wise was walking step by step on the edge of the cliff. He endured the bone-piercing wind, the blood-freezing coldness, and the sense of depravity. He did not stop at all and did not show any signs of bitterness.
Meng Qi appeared beside him and followed quietly for a few steps. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and said in a low voice,
"The Lord of the World."
This monk was the Spirited Mountain Gautama Buddha who measured the Nine Serenities in the past. He was the Lord of the Saha World, the only two who had transcended, the Unknowable and the Unspeakable!
After the fall of the Nirvana Realm, only a simple imprint was left in the past to maintain the process of history. What about the Spirited Mountain Gautama Buddha who had achieved the state of Dao Fruition? Would he be different from the fallen Nirvana Realm?
This was the reason why Gu Xiaosang insisted that Meng Qi come to see the "imprint" of Gautama Buddha. She wanted to see if she could pry into some secrets that could be used to reach the Nirvana Realm!
The Gautama Buddha put his palms together, his expression unchanged. He did not stop even for a moment because of Meng Qi's arrival and shouts. It was as if there was nothing outside of his heart and even less outside of his body. In short, he turned a blind eye and did not hear anything.
With his hands behind his back, Meng Qi's black robe was fluttering in the strong wind above the Netherworld. He continued to walk side by side with Buddha of Spirited Mountain and said to himself,
"I've been to Spirited Mountain before. I followed the river beside the Lingyun Ferry all the way to the back peak. I saw the shell left behind after the cicada shed its shell and entered the place where the Supreme Buddha was sealed …"
"Spirited" Mountain, he, and, and said, Spirit, and said. He had. and said. "I went". "I went., and said.
But the Buddha did not respond. It was more like an imprint than the suppressed Ananda imprint. "
Turning his head, Mengqi took a deep look at him. Without another word, his body dispersed like mist and disappeared.
The wind blew, and the Acheron stirred up waves. The Buddha walked forward step by step, as if he was going to walk through the ages.
Suddenly, a tiny crack appeared at the back of his head. It rapidly expanded and extended, shedding his skin as if he was taking off his clothes. A brand-new figure walked out from the crack. He was still six feet tall, sallow and emaciated. His expression was benevolent and his eyes were filled with wisdom. He only paused for a moment and looked back at the place where Meng Qi disappeared. His mouth split open, revealing forty Buddha teeth!
The peeling outer shell shattered into pieces and turned into pieces of glazed light. They fell into the Acheron and disappeared.
…
With the shift of will, Mengqi did not return to the current node. Instead, he went to a place that happened two hundred years ago. He appeared next to a gap of the Nine Serenities that was communicating with and invading the real world.
Outside the gap of the rolling black fog, a mountain stood tall and gloomy. It was the Tianzhu Mountain of the Aparagodaniya in the world of the Journey to the West, the place of the Immortal Demon Fairy!
Through the gap, the tomb chamber in the mountain could be vaguely seen. There were lamps lit inside, but there was no coffin. There was only a bed of black clouds and ice. On it sat the Immortal Demon Fairy, who was covered in a black robe.
In front of him stood a valiant man with an upright body and pale golden skin. To Meng Qi, this man was so familiar and so closely related to him.
This was the incarnation of the Undying Tao Body that he used to visit the Immortal Demon Fairy and ask about the whereabouts of the descendants of the Wu Zhuang Guan!
"Should I call you Samantabhadra or Guanyin?" the incarnation asked seriously.
At this moment, the Immortal Demon Fairy suddenly looked at the gap of the Nine Serenities below the Tianzhu Mountain and said in a deep voice,
"Which demonic god has come? Why are you eavesdropping? "
Mengqi sighed and did not answer directly. Instead, he asked, "When the demon fairy escaped from the Spirited Mountain, did you see anything that made you not dare to leave this world and return to the pure land?"
His incarnation of the Undying Tao Body was stunned by this sudden situation. Because the past had been transferred to the Nine Serenities, what was left was only the imprint.
The Immortal Demon Fairy was silent for a long time before saying, "I don't remember. May I know who the demonic god is?"
"Who?" Mengqi gave a rare smile, "Isn't it the one in front of you?"
"You …" the Immortal Demon Fairy's emotions were clearly fluctuating. He was a little shocked, but he immediately understood. "So this is no longer the current node. You have achieved the Nirvana Realm and returned to this place. No, you are a fake Nirvana Realm, a fake Nirvana Realm achieved by the Arts of Eight-Nine."
"Since you know that I have achieved the Nirvana Realm and am the direct disciple of Yuxu, why can't the demon fairy tell me?" Mengqi said calmly.
The Immortal Demon Fairy pondered for a while and asked doubtfully, "Why not ask at the current node? Could it be that I have already fallen at that time? "
"No." Mengqi said concisely, "Demon Fairy, you will understand why in the future."
Hearing Mengqi's answer, the Immortal Demon Fairy was obviously relieved. He then sighed and said, "When I seized the chance to escape from the Spirited Mountain, I noticed two things. First, when the Buddhas fell, there was an obvious strong wave of ecstasy from the back peak of the Spirited Mountain. Moreover, it was very similar to the aura of the Gautama Buddha …"
"The Supreme Buddha, the product of Gautama Buddha's Subtraction to seek emptiness. I've met him in the future," Meng Qi said calmly.
"The Supreme Buddha …" the Immortal Demon Fairy murmured to himself. "I see."
After pausing for a few breaths, he continued, "When the Buddhas fell, the Ancient Buddha Bodhi blocked the Demonic Sage. It was neither too early nor too late. It was just the right time. He could not stop Ananda from reversing the formation, and the Demonic Sage could not save the other Great Sage in time. It was as if he wanted to stain her body of five virtues with the Nine Serenities. Then, Amitabha descended."
"No wonder the Great Sage Qi Tian called you teacher at that time. No wonder you dare not return to the pure land of Buddhism," Mengqi said with a sigh.
Seeing that the Immortal Demon Fairy had nothing else to reveal, his figure flashed and left a mark here. He then returned to the current node and let history play out quietly, maintaining the original appearance.
…
Mengqi, who was sitting cross-legged on the pitch-black peak, opened his eyes. At the same time, the Immortal Demon Fairy in the World of Journey to the West suddenly shuddered. A memory that did not exist in the past appeared in his mind.
The figure that was hidden in the gap of the Nine Serenities was still vivid in his mind. The conversation was still echoing in his mind, leaving traces of him going back to the past in his mind.
"I will understand why in the future …" the Immortal Demon Fairy murmured to himself.
…
"Su Meng!"
The Worldly Limitless Buddha Lord let out a cry of pain. The Buddha character on his forehead shone brightly, and layers of swastikas stacked on top of each other. They shone with a clear, glassy light as they performed the Buddha's Palm, forcefully withstanding the corrosion of the mass of flesh. With a leap, he entered the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
Before he could truly enter, the mass of flesh suddenly fell on its own, losing its vitality and spirituality as it decomposed into mud.
"This is Su Meng's own flesh and blood after assimilating the remnants of the Eastern Emperor …" the Worldly Limitless Buddha Lord no longer looked angry and was at ease.
With the suppression of a Nirvana Realm individual, a mass of flesh and blood would definitely not be able to injure him. It was just a little disgust, and it would be convenient for him to test the waters in the future.
On top of the ancient Fusang tree, the Qing Emperor looked at this scene and suddenly sighed.
He already knew the message that Su Meng wanted to send.
He was using this matter to show the current situation in front of him. When facing the alliance between Buddhism and the Ajati Matriarch, when the Demon Emperor's position was wavering, he and the Lord Dao De were at an absolute disadvantage. More importantly, he was the latest to reach the Nirvana Realm, and his own forces had yet to grow. Only the Grand Saint of Nine Spirits and the Buddha of Moonlight could be of use at the moment.
The subtext was also on the verge of being revealed. He urgently needed an ally, an ally from the Nirvana Realm, an ally that represented the forces of the Yuxu Palace!
