Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Empress of Thousand Bones walked out of the Sumeru Temple and stood under a withered tree. She stood in front of the flowing River of Time and gazed at the sparkling water as if she wanted to step into it.

After hesitating, she took out a purple-green spear at the Regal Artifact level and threw it out.

SWOOSH!

As soon as the spear flew out of the Sumeru Temple and left the Canon of Time and Canon of Dimension, it was immediately compressed by the terrifying spatial power. With a loud explosion, it shattered into dozens of pieces of iron.

The iron rusted at speed visible to the naked eye. When it fell into the River of Time, it turned into ashes as if it had been corroded for hundreds of millions of years.

Zhang Ruochen, standing in the distance, saw this scene, and his heart sank.

‘It was too terrifying!’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

The Regal Artifact was crushed into pieces and even corroded into ashes by the Power of Time.

No matter a Saint Realm cultivator’s strength, he would probably die instantly if he entered.

The Empress of Thousand Bones was afraid. Even with her attainments in divinity, she chose to retreat to the Sumeru Temple.

Suddenly, she stopped and murmured, “There are a lot of Canons of Time and

Canons of Dimension here. As long as I absorb some of them and control them, I should be able to enter the River of Time.’

The Empress of Thousand Bones sat cross-legged in the courtyard. Her long dress was like the petals of the divine flowers on the ground. Her delicate hands formed a strange posture as if she had turned into the center of this space and entered a state of enlightenment.

The precept marks surrounded her, and her body emitted a gentle light.

Zhang Ruochen stared at her for a long time. She seemed to have turned into a stone statue of beauty and was motionless.

“The Empress probably won’t wake up for a while,” said Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen went around the Empress and other areas of the Sumeru Temple to search for the Lieshen’s Stellar Soul of God.

“The Frostfire Phoenix is not a god. It can’t enter the main area of the Sumeru Temple.

“It took the Sundial was taken out of the temple. Where was the Sundial stored by the Saint monk?”

As he walked, Zhang Ruochen was surprised to find that the soil under his feet had turned seven colors.

He squatted down and picked up a handful of soil. His eyes lit up with joy. “rainbow soil!”

He looked into the distance and saw a large patch of seven-colored vines among the rocks and dead trees. The vines covered more than half of the temple. However, Zhang Ruochen had entered the temple through the front door, so he overlooked the seven-colored vines at the beginning.

The seven-colored vines were called “rainbow vines.”.

When a Buddhist monk passed away, a rainbow would appear. The soil would turn into rainbow soil and grow rainbow vines.

The Frostfire Phoenix’s nest that Zhang Ruochen had seen in the Zuling Realm was built with rainbow vines.

The rainbow vines should have been dug out by her from the Sumeru Temple.

“That’s right. The Frostfire Phoenix must have been here before.” Zhang Ruochen was overjoyed.

The rainbow vines could help cultivators comprehend the path after it was lit. It was a rare treasure. However, Zhang Ruochen only wanted to find Lieshen’s Stellar Soul of God and was not interested in it.

Zhang Ruochen searched the area covered by the rainbow vines three or four times but found nothing.

The joy in Zhang Ruochen’s heart dissipated. He sat on a broken stone lion figure, and he sighed. “It seems that there are only two possibilities. Either the Frostfire Phoenix didn’t place Lieshen’s Stellar Soul of God into the Sumeru Temple, or the Stellar Soul of God stayed in the original Time and Space and didn’t return to the past with it.”

Zhang Ruochen stood up and prepared to return to the hall to hide. If the Empress found him, his life would be in danger.

“Huh!”

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen turned his head and looked at the forest of rainbow vines with a vigilant look. He secretly mobilized the Power of Dimension to form a dimensional blade and cut at it.

SWOOSH!

He was about to cut one of the vines as thick as a wine cup.

The vine suddenly showed a divine aura different from the other rainbow vines. There were specks of starlight emitting from it. The vine seemed to come to life. It twisted to avoid the spatial blade.

“Did these rainbow vines give birth to spirituality and wisdom?”

Zhang Ruochen was surprised. He had noticed that the shape of the rainbow vines had changed. He thought some unknown danger was hidden here, so he attacked first.

No! This rainbow vine is very different from the others. The Aura it gives off is the power of a god, not Buddha.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t approach immediately. Instead, he activated the Divine Purification Flame for defense and the Heart of Truth.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes seemed to be able to see through time and space. He saw a beautiful figure with Frostfire Phoenix’s wings bury a ball of starlight in the rainbow soil.

Then she cut her wrist and sprinkled saint blood on the rainbow soil.

She seemed to be saying something in a low voice. She looked sad, but Zhang Ruochen could not hear her voice.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were in great pain. The saint Qi in his body was almost exhausted, and the scene in front of him disappeared.

“Was that the Frostfire Phoenix just now?”

Zhang Ruochen thought carefully and guessed that the Heart of Truth, together with the Canon of Time and Canon of Dimension, made him see a scene that did not belong to this time and space.

This ability surprised Zhang Ruochen.

If he relied on the Heart of Truth, the Canon of Time, and the Canon of Dimension, he would be able to see the same place, all the images that had happened in history, and what other secrets heaven and earth had hidden from him.

Unfortunately, the Canon of Time and Canon of Dimension here did not belong to him. With his current cultivation, he could not master this ability as he wished.

Zhang Ruochen came to the rainbow vine and looked at the bottom of the vine.

Sure enough, the soil under the vine was even redder. It had been watered by a large amount of blood.

Zhang Ruochen roughly understood what was going on. When the War of Merit broke out in the Zuling Realm, the only god in the Zuling Realm, Lieshen, must have known that he would surely die. Therefore, before he died, he gave his

Stellar Soul of God to the Frostfire Phoenix. He probably hoped that the Frostfire Phoenix could use it to quickly break through and become a god. It could continue to support the Zuling Realm and protect the realm and billions of creatures.

However, after Lieshen died, the Frostfire Phoenix didn’t refine the Stellar Soul of God. Instead, it brought his Stellar Soul of God to the Sumeru Temple and planted it under the rainbow soil.

She believed in the reincarnation theory of Buddhism. Still, she believed Saint Monk Xumi could bring people back from the dead.

By planting the Stellar Soul of God in the rainbow soil, perhaps one day, Lieshen would be able to condense the remaining god’s soul in the world and grow out of the soil, gaining a new life.

Unfortunately, her wish couldn’t be fulfilled in the end.

Lieshen only had eight Divine Planets, and he was a god from a weak realm. He couldn’t be compared to the past Asurendra Samay, who stood at the pinnacle of the universe.

Even if Asurendra Samay’s original form, Divinity Source, and divine soul were destroyed.

However, it took 100,000 years to re-condense his broken divine soul. Even if it was just this divine soul, it still had the strength of a peerless divine.

Lieshen was far inferior to Asurendra Samay. As his divine body was devoured by the Rakshasa’s god, his Divinity Source was taken away, and he only had his Stellar Soul of God left. He had already fallen!

There should be a beautiful story between the Frostfire Phoenix and Lieshen.

Unfortunately, this story didn’t have a good ending. It was too sad and beautiful.

Lieshen had died tragically, the Frostfire Phoenix had also died, and even the Zuling Realm they guarded had been destroyed.

Everything was so tragic. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

Other than Zhang Ruochen, probably no cultivator in the world knew about their story and didn’t care at all. Such a tragedy happens every day.

All the creatures in the universe were filled with helplessness.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to think about why the Frostfire Phoenix didn’t refine the Stellar Soul of God of the Lieshen to break through to divinity. Instead, it planted his Stellar Soul of God under the rainbow soil and watered it with its own blood. It was just to win a glimmer of hope for him to come back to life.

She was too stupid and too infatuated.

She was a top-notch Supreme Saint. Didn’t she understand that if she could break through to the divinity, she might not have to die!

Perhaps there were too many stupid and infatuated people in the world. That was why it was more humane and worth remembering. It made people understand that cultivating was meaningful.

Of course, all of this was Zhang Ruochen’s guess. Another saying was the

Frostfire Phoenix had died before Lieshen. It was Lieshen who buried her in the Phoenix Nest. Then, he went to the outside world and fought with the Rakshasas’ god. Ultimately, he died a tragic death.

The truth was already unknown.

Some truths would never be revealed. They would die with the passing of a generation.

Zhang Ruochen reached out his hand, wanting to grab the rainbow vine.

The rainbow vine dodged again.

Unfortunately, it only knew how to dodge. It was no different from a spiritual herb. It had no higher intelligence!

It was just a rainbow vine. It was no longer Lieshen.

Zhang Ruochen could feel the powerful Stellar Soul of God’s power contained within it. Controlling it meant controlling Lieshen’s Stellar Soul of God. Refining it could strengthen the Supreme Saint’s soul, significantly increase spiritual power, and also mobilize the power of the Orion Eight Stars. It could burst with battle strength comparable to a pseudo god.

However, seeing it dodge, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t bear it. He didn’t refine it in the end.

Zhang Ruochen planned to leave it to Mu Lingxi. After all, Mu Lingxi had received part of the Frostfire Phoenix’s inheritance. She might be able to get its approval.

“I’ll rely on myself. I have the Dragon Lord’s Dragonic Flame of Origin. It shouldn’t be difficult for me to break through to the 69th level.’

Zhang Ruochen didn’t condense the Dimension Saintwill for now. He remembered Saint Monk Xumi saying that the key to condensing the Grade One Saintwill was time and space.

Since he was going to the beginning of time, when space was still a singularity, it would not be too late to condense it then.

It might not be a good thing to let the Dimension Saintwill take shape now.

Time passed quietly.

Rumble

A deafening sound woke Zhang Ruochen, who was refining his spiritual power.

Blood flowed out of Zhang Ruochen’s ears. He thought that the Empress of Thousand Bones was making some big move, so he wrapped the Portrait of the Sixth Buddha’s Zen around his body and rushed out of the hall.

He felt mighty divine power coming from all directions. It pierced through time and space, shaking the River of Time.

On the River of Time, Zhang Ruochen saw the most shocking battle scene since he started cultivating. He muttered to himself, “This is…. 100,000 years ago!”

Something strange happened. The Sumeru Temple, which had been moving forward, stopped at this moment.

It stopped at this time and space.

Zhang Ruochen was even more shocked. ‘What was it doing?’

‘Why did it stop 100,000 years ago? I was only a Supreme Saint. How could I participate in the Battle of gods?’

‘Those gods would destroy me with just a glance.’

“Saint monk, let’s go quickly. When I become a god and step into the Reverend realm, it won’t be too late to fight in this time and space.” Zhang Ruochen begged with a bitter smile.

Unfortunately, the Sumeru Temple stopped completely.
