Chapter 781: Chapter 419: Advancing to Ninth Grade, Becoming an Immortal Emperor
Li Qian led Buddha and Bao Ling into Chenzhong Cave Heaven.
"This place is quite special, isn’t it?"
Tianqu God Emperor, the reincarnation of Buddha, sensed this world. Even at his Ninth Grade God Emperor level, he couldn’t perceive the essence of this heaven and earth.
This feeling was akin to being in the Divine Realm.
The Divine Realm existed reliant on the Chaos Outer Gods.
Therefore, the essence of the Divine Realm is the Chaos Outer Gods.
Even a Ninth Grade God Emperor, when facing the Chaos Outer Gods, feels an insurmountable awe; they are eternal existences completely above the Immortal Gods.
"It is a bit special."
Li Qian said with a light laugh.
"Qian Yuan, let me tell you the backstory."
Buddha changed the topic directly to the main issue.
"Alright."
Li Qian nodded.
In fact, he had no idea what the ultimate goal of Shenxiao and Buddha was until now.
"A long time ago... a powerful Chaos Outer God wandered outside the Immortal Realm. The nature of Chaos Outer Gods is to devour everything. If there were no accidents, the Immortal Realm would have been completely consumed by the Chaos Outer Gods. Now, the Divine Realm is actually a transformation of all the worlds that have been consumed..."
Buddha began speaking.
"Then why does the Heavenly Court still exist, and how can it even go back and forth against the Divine Realm?"
Li Qian asked, puzzled.
"Because of the existence of Hongjun Palace.... The previous Palace Master intervened when the Chaos Outer God was devouring the Immortal Realm, performed the Great Silence Immortal Technique, and made the Chaos Outer God fall asleep. That’s why the Immortal Realm wasn’t completely devoured, but its essence was destroyed..."
Buddha stated.
"Did the Hongjun Palace Master manage to transcend?"
Li Qian asked.
"Of course, otherwise how could he have put the Chaos Outer God to sleep?"
Buddha replied, "It’s just a pity that it’s only a matter of time before the Chaos Outer God awakens again, and the threat to the Immortal Realm hasn’t been completely resolved...."
"What about the Hongjun Palace Master then?"
Li Qian inquired with interest.
"The Palace Master only managed to Slay Three Corpses, but his cultivation hasn’t truly transcended..... because of the lack of Innate Spiritual Energy. So after performing the Great Silence Immortal Technique, the Palace Master also perished."
Buddha sighed and said.
Innate Spiritual Energy is extremely rare in this world, often existing in the void outside.
But the outer void is very dangerous.
With the power of the Hongjun Palace Master, he could have definitely found Innate Spiritual Energy, but it wouldn’t have been of much use due to its scarcity for true transcendence....
"Even the Hongjun Palace couldn’t find Innate Spiritual Energy?"
Li Qian said in surprise.
"It’s very difficult.... Moreover, places with more Innate Spiritual Energy tend to attract those Chaos Outer Gods. If there’s any place in the world that may contain a large amount of Innate Spiritual Energy, it might only be the Chaos Outer God outside the Immortal Realm."
Buddha shook his head and said.
Li Qian remained silent. It seemed that his Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Chen Bell, which generated a strand of Innate Spiritual Energy each day, was an otherworldly existence.
"So, the Chaos Outer God could awaken at any time, and without Innate Spiritual Energy, true transcendence is extremely difficult. When the Chaos Outer God revives, how will it be stopped?"
Li Qian asked solemnly.
"My original plan was to Slay Three Corpses, then enter the core of the Chaos Outer God to obtain Innate Spiritual Energy for true transcendence and thereby destroy it from within...."
Buddha sighed and said.
But he hadn’t even succeeded in Slaying the Self Corpse, so how could he enter the core?
"However, you succeeded in Slaying Three Corpses, and I can help you enter the core of the Chaos Outer God to steal Innate Spiritual Energy...."
Buddha continued.
Li Qian just smiled... He did not trust Buddha’s words.
Once he breaks through to Ninth Grade Immortal Emperor, with the Chen Bell providing a strand of Innate Spiritual Energy daily, Slaying Three Corpses could be done at any time, making transcendence just a matter of time.
So there was no need to take a risk entering the core of the Chaos Outer God.
Going inside would be akin to walking into a trap.
"Ah, you still don’t trust me..."
Buddha saw Li Qian’s reaction and sighed.
"How long until that Chaos Outer God revives?"
Li Qian avoided answering Buddha’s question, instead asking.
"That’s uncertain, but..... according to the Palace Master, it should be able to last several eras of cosmic cycles."
Buddha shook his head and said.
"Several cosmic cycles, eh.... Hmm, that should be enough time."
Li Qian nodded.
In a few cosmic cycles’ time, he would have already transcended.
Once transcended, fighting the Chaos Outer God shouldn’t be too big of a problem.
So, he might as well wait patiently.
Buddha looked at Li Qian’s reaction, a bit speechless. Enough time?
Several cosmic cycles.
And yet....
Without Innate Spiritual Energy, how to transcend?
Without transcendence, how to combat the Chaos Outer God?
In the end, wouldn’t it be the same as the previous Hongjun Palace Master, sacrificing oneself for the way?
"Qian Yuan, are you really not going to reconsider?"
Buddha couldn’t help but say.
He hoped Shenxiao would act according to his plan, greatly increasing the chance of success.
After all, he had schemed for a long time, everything had been arranged, only waiting for himself to succeed in Slaying Three Corpses. But now Shenxiao had succeeded, he still believed the success rate was high, and the risk worthwhile.
"Consider what? I have no intention of courting death."
Li Qian shook his head, firmly refusing.
"Alright, if you ever change your mind, let me know."
Buddha sighed, realizing Shenxiao still didn’t trust him. Even reborn, without any past memories, he still didn’t trust him.
Of course, if Shenxiao has his own plan, then that’s another matter.
Buddha left.
Bao Ling Saint Mother stayed behind.
Buddha did not take Bao Ling Saint Mother and Little Ah You back to the Divine Realm.
