Chapter 600: Chapter 45: Dao Fruit Embryo, Personally Entering the Human World

The tables have turned!

Twelve Jade Void Immortals, each wielding a Dao Fruit Level Supreme Treasure. At this very moment, the so-called gaps in realm, foundation, and accumulation had vanished without a trace.

Even if they couldn’t unleash the full power of the Dao Fruit Level Supreme Treasures...

Guangcheng Zi wielded the Three-Bejeweled Ruyi, relentlessly smashing it down upon the Supreme Level Venerable Buddha. With each blow, the Venerable Buddha coughed up blood and his physical form crumbled.

Even his own Buddha light dimmed, and that aura of immovable solemnity dissipated completely. He was fleeing for his life!

Taiyi Celestial Venerable stood upon the Primordial Qingyun, allowing the Artifact Holder-level Vermilion Bird to strike at him without causing so much as a ripple.

He appeared completely at ease. Empowered by the Primordial Qingyun, he seemed to have achieved complete insight into the Path of Cause and Effect. With a casual wave of his hand, he severed several of the Vermilion Bird’s major threads of Cause and Effect.

Even its Nan Ming Li Fire was extinguished in that instant, as if it had never been born, never existed!

The Cause of its Lifebound Dao Artifact’s birth was severed, leading to the dissolution of its Effect of existence. The Vermilion Bird shrieked in agony as its aura plummeted, falling back to the Eternal Proof level!

Jade Cauldron Celestial Venerable brandished the Jade Void Palace itself, swinging it left and right, hammering the Qilin until its bones shattered. The very concepts of its own Time and Years dimmed, bringing it to the verge of dissipation!

Then there were Merciful Celestial Venerable, Ju Liusun Celestial Venerable, and the others...

The Buddhist Path was in steep decline.

High in the Celestial Vault, Lu Nian grasped the Jade Void Golden Bell and struck it.

DONG!

At the first toll of the bell, the Great Heaven and Earth trembled.

DONG! DONG! DONG! DONG!

As the bell tolled continuously, All Realms swayed and the Celestial Realms rocked!

As if on a whim, she began to strike the Golden Bell, composing a melody. Though she herself was only at the Celestial Realms level, several Daluo grew dizzy and muddled under the bell’s grand symphony!

Meanwhile, Zhenyuan Zi—clad in a crane robe and Ascension Shoes, a Chaos Ribbon tied at his waist, his face a mask of sorrow as he sighed incessantly—was striking the Great Sun Buddha with one ancient, grand technique after another, causing the Buddha to cough up blood and his Golden Body to crack...

Then, a laugh like silver bells rang out.

"Don’t forget about me."

The Daluo all turned to look. A stunningly beautiful young woman was arriving on the clouds. Her body shimmered with Buddha light yet also held the profundity of the Nine Nether. With every step, she stirred up a monstrous sea of clouds that crashed out in all directions!

She had first cultivated under Haotian, Fengdu, Kunpeng, and Shakyamuni, and later absorbed Dao Fruit and Dao Rhyme from the discourse between Shakyamuni and the Buddha Mother.

At this moment, although her accumulation was scant and her age young, and she had not yet entered the Daluo realm, she possessed the power of one ’Similar to Daluo’.

With her sudden arrival and sudden attack, she joined forces with Lu Nian and actually managed to slay a Daluo from the Buddhist Sect who was at the Eternal Proof level!

Heaven and Earth cried out in grief. The blood of a Daluo splattered across the past and future of the Years.

"Now..."

Guangcheng Zi said with a smile as his Three-Bejeweled Ruyi descended. The Venerable Buddha, as if struck by lightning, was suddenly covered in cracks like a fragile piece of porcelain!

"Now, it’s twenty against twenty. The advantage is ours," Guangcheng Zi stated.

The bloody battle between Daluo became one-sided once more. Only this time, it was the Daluo of the Buddhist Path who were collapsing.

Everything had happened so fast that many of the onlookers at Emperor Pass were left dumbfounded.

Yang Erlang gripped his Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade, his spirits soaring.

Nezha was laughing with joy, and Zhu Wuneng was cheering. The Infinite Shadow Soldiers rattled their blades and armor, the Immortal Earth Deities beat their drums to bolster morale, and the Biyou Ten Thousand Immortals, poised in the clouds, began to play instruments, sing praises, or strum their zithers!

But soon, Yang Erlang came to his senses. He stood dazedly on the city wall, gazing at the two beautiful figures whose faces were strikingly similar, and a thought began to gnaw at him.

’He knew Little Peach Spirit was the past incarnation of Junior Martial Uncle Lu’s wife, but the other one...’

His eyes widened as a guess surfaced in his mind. ’Could it be...?’

’Junior Martial Uncle Lu’s own daughter?’

"Amazing, amazing, amazing..."

Yang Jian was awestruck and utterly captivated. It had to be Junior Martial Uncle Lu’s daughter. Looking closely, he could tell she wasn’t very old at all!

And yet, she was shaking the Golden Bell and battling against a Daluo!

"Like father, like daughter, indeed," he muttered to himself.

Meanwhile, high above the heavens.

The Buddha Mother stared with a pale face at the scene in the Late Han Dynasty. Rage burned in his heart, but it was quickly replaced by a sense of powerlessness, and he staggered!

At this moment, Haotian spoke leisurely:

"Fellow Daoist, it seems... the dust is about to settle."

The Buddha Mother was silent.

After a long moment, ℯ

He and the blood-coughing Great Belly Buddha raised their heads at the same time. All four of their eyes were cold as a vast Brahma Sound echoed:

"Ultimately, this is all just an illusion. Amitabha is about to descend from Douluo Palace. Even if Hongjun Daoist has usurped the Four Emperors Dynasty and seized control of the Human Dao Fortune... so what?"

The Buddha Mother’s voice was utterly chilling:

"Even if he has the ability to hide in the future, Amitabha is an Enlightened One. You should know full well that an Enlightened One can also consolidate parts of the future!"

Haotian’s eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn’t answer. He naturally knew this. A hint of doubt crept into his mind, however, as he still didn’t understand the true reason behind Lu Xuan’s actions.

However...

He trusted Lu Xuan.

Immediately,

Haotian spoke no more. Wielding the Emperor’s Sword and the Copper Mirror, he charged the Buddha Mother. The two Ancient Ones were once again locked in a fierce, life-or-death struggle!

...

「Purple Cloud Palace.」

The Daoist was in the middle of a lecture.

Celestial flowers rained down, cyan lotuses bloomed from the earth, and golden springs overflowed, all while a vast Dao Rhyme permeated the air.

Three thousand people sat in the Purple Cloud Palace, listening quietly. Expressions of sudden understanding, profound realization, and utter fascination appeared on their faces, and all of them sighed in admiration for the great profundity of the teachings.

"The middle volume of the Celestial Book describes Divine Techniques and explains Skills."

"Celestial Book Volume Two expounds on the Great Dao and relates its supreme principles."

The Purple Cloud Palace Master recited the remaining parts of the Celestial Book, and the three thousand guests listened intently, craning their necks, looking on, smiling, and sighing in silent wonder.

The Celestial Book was a classic scripture that Lu Xuan had created by summarizing all of his knowledge and learnings.

This book contained both the wonders of the Mediation of Creation and the ferocity of Annihilation and Slaughter;

it held the profundity of the Supreme’s four treatises as well as the marvels of the Primordial Body...

In terms of comprehension, while one couldn’t say he was entirely without peer throughout history, his was at least comparable to that of a Dao Fruit Cultivator.
