Especially the Heaven's Equal Lord, Sun Wukong. Although his name was slightly different from the legendary Sun Wukong, and the Golden Cudgel had also become the Coiling Dragon Cudgel, his 108,000 jin weight still confirmed his identity as the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.
However, this was not strange. After all, the Mythological Era was a taboo topic. The end of the Mythological Era was still an unsolved mystery. The myths and legends spread on Earth had been imagined and processed by later generations, so it was normal for there to be some deviation.
However, after Li Jikang, who had the potential to gossip, winked and told him a piece of information, Ding Ning's mood suddenly became very bad.
Because Li Jikang winked and told him that it was said that the most handsome of the Five Great Heavenly Lords, Xiao Tian Lord, had once saved Li Sining's life. Li Sining was extremely infatuated with him and had been pursuing him. The two of them had a very close relationship and might soon become a couple.
Although it was just a rumor and might not be true, Ding Ning felt extremely uncomfortable.
There must be a reason for this groundless rumor. Moreover, when he thought of Li's disdainful attitude towards him and mercilessly mocking him for not having the qualifications to pursue her, he felt like he had received a ten thousand points of critical damage.
Because he was very clear that women in troubled times worshipped the strong. He could understand Li's love for Erlang Shen Jun, who had saved her, but from an emotional point of view, he could not accept it.
However, Erlang Shen Jun, an existence that was like an idol to him, had unexpectedly become his rival in love. This rival in love brought him unprecedented pressure.
Although he did not know what the Dao State was, he guessed that it should be an expert in the Dao of Origin that surpassed the Immortal Heavenly Lord. It was just that in the Kunxu Realm, the Dao of Origin was called the Dao State.
He was now only a demigod, while Erlang Shen Jun was already an expert in the Dao of Origin. There were still five realms between them: Pericelestial, Demigod, Immortal Heavenly Emperor, Immortal Heavenly Lord, and Immortal Heavenly Lord.
Moreover, according to Erlang Shen's battle record, he was able to kill 17 Dao Realm experts by himself and escape easily. He was most likely not an expert who had just stepped into Origin Dao. He was definitely an expert who had reached the later stages of Origin Dao. Who knew how long it would take for Erlang Shen to catch up to him. At the very least, it would take 10,000 years.
With such a comparison, Ding Ning immediately became listless like a deflated balloon. Even if he really was the Immortal Heavenly Venerate, it would be wishful thinking for him to catch up to Erlang Shen's footsteps without hundreds or thousands of years, let alone the fact that this Immortal Heavenly Venerate was made up.
"Senior, Amitabha is a member of the Blood Buddha Temple. The people of the Blood Buddha Temple have always been vengeful and lawless. This time, Amitabha's beloved disciple was killed, and his body was destroyed. His primordial spirit escaped, so he will definitely not let it go. Soon, he will send people to take revenge. Although Senior is the Immortal Heavenly Venerate, your strength has not recovered yet. I'm afraid you may not be a match for them for the time being. What do you think …"
Li Jikang was just gossiping about the romantic affairs of his commander to show off the relationship between the Heavenly Court army and the Howling Sky Lord, but he didn't expect that the mysterious senior's face would suddenly turn gloomy, which made him feel uneasy. He didn't know what he had said wrong to make the senior unhappy, so he quickly changed the topic and asked cautiously.
Ding Ning's eyes flickered, and he frowned, "Blood Buddha Temple? Is it Buddhism? "
Li Jikang was startled, but then he remembered that the senior in front of him had been healing in seclusion since the Primordial Age, so he naturally didn't know such common knowledge. He quickly explained, "Buddhism is a huge force. The Blood Buddha Temple claims to be a branch of Buddhism, but Buddhism may not recognize their identity."
Ding Ning revealed a thoughtful expression. It seemed that Buddhism was also a super terrifying force in the Chaotic Universe. He immediately asked, "Tell me about Buddhism. Is it very powerful?"
Li Jikang saw that he didn't take the threat of the Blood Buddha Temple seriously.
He complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it. He respectfully replied, "With the foreign invasion, the Kunxu Realm has captured many captives. From them, we learned a lot about the distribution of forces in the Chaotic Universe …"
As Li Jikang spoke, Ding Ning looked calm on the surface, but there was a storm in his heart.
According to what he knew, there were countless large and small planes in the Chaotic Universe, but the only ones that could be ranked in the Chaotic Universe were the Jiutian Shidi and the Four Fields and Eight Wastelands.
The plane where the Kunxu Realm was located belonged to the Untainted Plane. Unfortunately, after the War of Gods and Demons, the Untainted Continent was fragmented, and the order of the Heavenly Way was incomplete. It had become a low-level plane.
A dead camel was still bigger than a horse. Although the Untainted Continent was broken, it was once a ranked world, and the World Source it contained attracted the greed of countless people.
Fortunately, the powerful people in the Jiutian Shidi and the Four Fields and Eight Wastelands didn't care about this broken world at all. That was why the Kunxu Realm could struggle on under the leadership of the Heavenly Court.
These invaders coveted the World Source of the Kunxu Realm. They were worried that if they pushed the Heavenly Court into a corner, the Heavenly Court would choose to destroy the entire World Source and they would get nothing. That was why they made a strange agreement with the Heavenly Court to slowly wear down the power of the Heavenly Court and finally obtain the World Source.
The Buddhist Sect was also an extremely huge and terrifying force in the vast Chaotic Universe. They occupied a place in the Jiutian Shidi and renamed it the Buddhist Land. They didn't care about the broken World Source at all. Otherwise, with the power of the Buddhist Sect, if they took action, the Kunxu Realm would have fallen.
This made Ding Ning very confused. According to Mo Xing, Sakyamuni was from the Buddhist Sect, and the Buddhist Sect was clearly involved in the invaders. Why did Li Jikang say that the Buddhist Sect didn't care about taking action?
But then, Li Jikang answered his doubts. Although the Buddhist Sect in the Buddhist Land didn't take action, the Buddhist Sect's power spread throughout the Chaotic Universe, and there were countless branches of the Buddhist Sect.
The Blood Buddha Temple came in the name of the Buddhist Sect. Of course, other than the Blood Buddha Temple, there were many other branches of the Buddhist Sect that participated in this invasion. The strongest among them was called the Ancient Buddha Temple.
The Ancient Buddha Temple was far stronger than the Blood Buddha Temple, whose strongest was only an Immortal Emperor. It had a Dao Realm expert and mastered the Heavenly Reincarnation Art. Even the Five Great Heavenly Lords were wary of it. It was also one of the strongest forces in this invasion. There were three other invading forces that were as strong as the Ancient Buddha Temple. They were the Golden Crow Tribe, the Heavenly Demon Sect, and the Plague God Tribe. There were also many other small forces, but they were basically the vassals of these four forces.
"The Plague God Tribe?"
Ding Ning thought of the Black Blood Plague Tribe. He wondered if the Plague God Tribe was related to the Black Blood Plague Tribe.
"Yes, the Plague God Tribe also has a powerful background. They are skilled in using curses and are extremely difficult to deal with."
When Li Jikang spoke of the Plague God Tribe, his face was filled with fear. It was clear how terrifying the Plague God Tribe was.
"Is the Plague God Tribe related to the Black Blood Plague Tribe?"
Ding Ning asked.
Li Jikang looked at Ding Ning in surprise. He could not understand how this ancient person knew about the Black Blood Plague Tribe, but he did not dare to ask. He hurriedly explained, "The Plague God Tribe is a branch of the Black Blood Plague Tribe. It is said that because their bloodline is not pure, they are no longer the pure-blooded Black Blood Tribe and have lost the ability to spread plagues. They only have the ability to use plagues, so they were chased out of the Hell Wretched Earth.
The Hell Wretched Earth is also a place in the Nine Skies and Ten Lands. Its power is comparable to the Buddhist Sect, but it is rumored that they are a race that has been cursed by the heavens. So once the pure-blooded Black Blood Tribe leaves the Hell Wretched Earth, their power will greatly decrease. That is why they do not leave the Hell Wretched Earth so easily. "
A thoughtful look appeared in Ding Ning's eyes. He thought of the Black Blood Plague Tribe's attempt to control the cycle of reincarnation in the Kunpeng Realm and use it to evolve. They had even colluded with the Descendants of God. He did not believe that with their wild ambitions, they would be willing to stay in the Hell Wretched Earth forever.
This made him come up with a bold conjecture. Could the Plague God Tribe be a test subject for the Black Blood Plague Tribe to dilute their bloodline through hybridization to find a way to break the curse?
Driving the Plague God Tribe out of the Hell Wretched Earth might have been a deliberate act. First, they wanted to use the Plague God Tribe's life in the Chaotic Universe to test if they could find a way to break the curse after diluting their bloodline. Second, they wanted to use the Plague God Tribe to plunder resources. If anything happened, it would have nothing to do with the Black Blood Plague Tribe.
Although Li Jikang said that the experts of the Nine Skies and Ten Lands did not care to fight for the Great Wilderness Continent's Source, Ding Ning was not so naive. No matter how broken it was, it was still the Source of a major world. He did not believe that these fellows would not covet it.
He guessed that there must be some kind of unknown binding force that prevented the experts of the Nine Skies and Ten Lands and the Four Wilds and Eight Wilds from openly breaking this balance.
Therefore, whether it was the Plague God Tribe or the Ancient Buddhist Temple, they must have been instructed by the Black Blood Plague Tribe and the Buddhist Sect. Otherwise, how could Shakyamuni be so sure that the Buddhist Sect had participated in this invasion?
Also, what kind of existence was the Nine Skies and Ten Lands? Was the Origin a major world among the Nine Skies and Ten Lands? Or was it an even higher plane?
Unfortunately, Li Jikang was unable to give him an answer. After all, this information came from the invaders that had been captured, and those that were captured were basically cultivators of comparatively lower cultivation realms. With their cultivation realms and status, they were bound to know extremely little.
Fortunately, although Li Jikang did not know much, he had heard of the Immortal World. He knew that the Immortal World belonged to one of the Nine Skies and Ten Lands. It was called Heaven and Earth.
However, the Immortal World was extremely mysterious. Very few people had seen people from the Immortal World roaming the Chaotic Universe. It was said that although the Nine Skies and Ten Lands and the Four Wilds and Eight Wilds were all the main planes of the Chaotic Universe, there were also differences in their levels.
The Nine Skies were called the Upper Nine Skies. They were a level higher than the Ten Lands, and the Ten Lands were a level higher than the Four Wilds and Eight Wilds.
This made him think of the people on Earth who had broken through the void and ascended. He wondered if one could ascend to the Immortal World after breaking through the shackles of the Three Realms and becoming immortal.
He could not be blamed for thinking this way. After all, the name Heaven and Earth was too down-to-earth. It seemed to have an inexplicable relationship with the Three Realms.
Moreover, the Grandmaster of Heaven and the others were not the only legendary figures in history. Since they were real, it was possible that the other legendary figures were real as well. For example, Goddess Nuwa? Then where did all these people go? Could they have ascended to the Immortal World?
The more he understood, the more he felt that the world was hiding a great secret. Was the Origin a world on equal footing with the Immortal World, or was it a higher plane? This caused him to feel deeply perplexed.
He had always thought that the Origin was a higher plane that surpassed the Chaotic Universe. However, after he discovered that Dao Realm experts had actually appeared during the Age of Legends, he had no choice but to question this.
When he thought up to here, he subconsciously looked towards the area where the extraordinary experts were fighting. He wondered if he could strike up a conversation with the Grandmaster of Heaven and have a good chat with him to resolve the doubts in his heart.
