Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree

Chapter 861 - 316: Unrivaled in the World

"Which one is descending?" Ji Jingqiu asked casually, not really expecting Fang Yu to provide an answer."Shi Zun?"

Fang Yu did not speak, but Ji Jingqiu found the answer within the fluctuations of his thoughts.

He glanced at him with a hint of surprise.

From the previous conversation among the members of the Four Gods Church, it was clear that this person hadn’t joined the Four Gods Temples, yet he knew which of the Four Demons would descend today.

"Shi Zun..." Ji Jingqiu’s eyes burned with fervor as he grinned, though his smile carried a chilling coldness.

No longer concealing his aura.

Where Ji Jingqiu stood, swept by the surging winds of heaven and earth, ripples spread outward, and he began to let his aura merge mightily with the world.

Rising high in the heavens.

In an instant, all Heavenly Persons of the East Three Bright Star felt their Unity of Heaven and Man thought become stagnant, as if "like water freezing", naturally suppressed.

In the void, the sound of waves could be heard, and all Heavenly Persons looked up, only to see azure waves reaching the Qingming, a vast ocean manifesting in the heavens, boundlessly grand, filling the world with the expansive water-cloud aura.

Or perhaps...

It was merely a lotus pond?

...

Huang Zhiyan suddenly stood up, the alcohol-induced haze dissipated, for ordinary wine could only intoxicate a Heavenly Person if they got themselves drunk.

Her gaze couldn’t help but disbelievingly look up, even though the scene presented before her was real, she still found it hard to believe.

For the truth was too absurd, too incredible, beyond common sense, even by divine prohibition standards!

To suppress all Heavenly Persons with mere aura, is this the Heavenly King’s True Dharma Realm?!

"Is this... unrivaled in the world?!"

...

Hua Jiujie was dumbfounded staring at the sky.

All core disciples from the True Saint Dojo, who hadn’t seen a few Heavenly Kings? They were as common as raising and dropping one’s head.

Yet since coming to the Great Universe, he genuinely hadn’t seen one.

Unexpectedly, today, "dream realized."

Hiss, truly worthy of the big brother he’s admired for long!

Indeed, "unrivaled in the world"!

Hua Jiujie was unsure whether to feel joy or worry for a moment, when he heard the clear sound of cups and bowls shattering to the ground not far away, he scanned with his mind and found it was a "foreign guest" like himself.

"Unrivaled in the world, unmatched in the world... The Heavenly King’s Dharma Realm, could this person truly be unmatched in the world?!"

"Incredible! Simply incredible!"

"However formidable he is, how did he, on first entering as a Heavenly Person, manage to manifest a Heavenly King’s Dharma Realm?!"

"Haha—turns out the earlier words were not a joke, but rather we are frogs at the bottom of a well! Seeing it like this... The person who transmitted sound from the sky earlier, their realm probably isn’t low!"

Hua Jiujie sighed softly and closed his deep eyes.

——Quickly retreat! This one is already unrivaled in the present, and on the East Three Bright Star can be compared to a Heavenly King, not to be opposed!

So.

It wasn’t a joke.

But they, these frogs at the bottom of the well, unable to see the full Qingming.

...

Among the layers of cloud seas, appeared all sorts of incomplete talismans, seemingly divine gods of the world, in grim arrangement, vaguely a towering Ascension Platform standing high in the heavens.

Ji Jingqiu "coincidentally" stood at the center of the Ascension Platform, high above, his expression indifferent, his gaze burning.

The sea turns to dust, the long Ten Thousand Tribulations.

Countless years have passed, and this long-sealed Ascension Platform finally regained some of its ancient "Heavenly Destiny."

It was also at this moment.

Ji Jingqiu elevated his combat power to the current pinnacle.

Standing here, he was confident he could wrestle wrists with a true Heavenly King.

Though certainly beaten, in the present Great Universe, it was already enough.

As he stood at the brink of the winds and clouds.

That divine shadow briefly manifested by the sacrifice of dozens of Heavenly Persons’ blood and spirit also stabilized, standing coldly in the cosmic void, looking at him from outside the planet.

Ji Jingqiu and Hel had always had a question, that is, who exactly was the one who usurped Hel’s Divine Throne?

The last time Divine Travel reached Yanfu State, Ji Jingqiu had an astonishing guess emerge in his mind—could this new Four Demon be related to Marshal Ji?

In bolder speculation, could Marshal Ji be "Shi Zun"?

But if it really were Marshal Ji, how did the other three demons sit back and watch him ascend the Divine Throne?

Most importantly, Hel directly denied this conjecture, in her eyes, unless the other three wholeheartedly helped Master Ji ascend to the Divine Throne, only then would he possibly sit in her place.

Ultimately, it lay in "path discrepancy."

Marshal Ji’s path did not align with Hel’s style.

Ji Jingqiu suddenly stopped his distractions.

In the Outer Heaven, that divine Dharma Form raised its hand.

In an instant.

Devil thoughts sprouted everywhere in the heavens and earth, all beings transformed into one Heart Demon after another.

Even the group of Heavenly Persons felt their own Holy Embryo nearly unholdable, devil thoughts stirring in their hearts, almost manifesting into Heart Demons.

Quite a few looked terrified, regardless of their environment, they sat down cross-legged on the spot, using the Secret Technique of their sects to suppress the inner demons and cleanse the spirit.

This is still in the Yanhuang Federation, with its unique hierarchy of gods overseeing!

At this moment.

In the Inner World.

Hel had long been on her feet, her brows sharp, covered in a layer of frost, her words punctuated, filled with a biting killing intent:

"Wuzhou!!!"

Ji Jingqiu squinted.

Shi Zun is Wuzhou?

Then on the Heavenly Demon’s Divine Throne, who is seated?

If Wuzhou could truly occupy two divine thrones at once, by now he would have already transcended, smoothly bringing the Spirit Ocean under control.

His thought moved, and the Heaven and Earth Dojo intertwined with the East Three Bright Star connected heaven and earth, Bi Hai tide rose, Heart Moon manifested, scattering infinite brilliance, within which the prototypes of Infinite Light and Heavenly Divine Light were interwoven.

Light cascaded over the heaven and earth, suppressing the malicious devil thoughts.

And just at this moment, Ji Jingqiu’s ears were also filled with the sound of tides rising and falling.

That was the echo of the Spirit Ocean.

"He is inducing the Spirit Ocean to approach the present world, do not give him the opportunity, this is merely a Divine Split, its power will not surpass the Heavenly King threshold, leave behind this Divine Split of his!"
