Chapter 631: Chapter 58: Ascension from All Realms, Suppressing Fu Xi, The Goddess’s Insight

Xiaoyan was also dumbfounded, blinking in confusion. The terrifying Existence that had forced them into hiding for thirty years... from the way Xiaolu described it, seemed to be nothing special? It even sounded like they had already crossed paths before?

She was silent at first, then a huge smile spread across her face, only to be replaced by a look of heartache. She gently caressed Lu Xuan’s cheek.

"These years... you must have suffered a lot, haven’t you?"

Xiaoyan spoke softly.

"You’re back now, so get some proper rest... Oh, right, our daughter was born long ago. The name I gave her is Nian, so we call her Lu Nian. It’s just that the little rascal ran away many years ago, and we haven’t heard from her since."

"I’ve met Xiaonian."

Lu Xuan smiled.

"She’s training with Houtu now, and her temperament has mellowed out a lot."

Everyone was a bit numb. Another Dao Fruit...

Lu Xuan then let out a slow breath, his expression gradually turning cold.

"First, I’ll deal with this guy... Then I’m going to see Lady."

After a pause, he reached a hand into the Celestial Vault and gave it a gentle tap.

With a tremendous ROAR, the Kongtong Immortal Realm reconnected with the River of Time.

Shifting histories and changing eras were all reflected into this land.

Big Black Bull, Sandalwood Merit Buddha, True Phoenix...

They all stood frozen, slowly digesting the new memories that had appeared in their minds, their expressions gradually turning to horror.

The struggle in the Late Han Dynasty, the Buddha Mother, Amitabha, the Purple Cloud Palace...

Then the Dao Dynasty, the Three Dukes, the Three New Celestial Realms...

"Well, I’ll be damned!" the Ox Demon King muttered blankly.

.........

「Current World, Western Buddha Land.」

"I see... a supreme great world..."

Sun Wukong sat on the ruins of Sumeru Mountain, head raised, gazing into the void and murmuring to himself.

"It seems to come from the past. Is it the Dao Dynasty?"

The past had changed drastically, its effects reflecting upon the present. The Dao Dynasty had appeared in history, rising in the Late Han Dynasty and falling at the beginning of the Journey to the West.

Of course, this history was in a constant state of flux.

Sun Wukong frowned, his eyes blazing. The Dao Dynasty... he had a premonition that his opportunity to attain the Daluo realm might lie within it!

After a moment of contemplation, the Victorious Fighting Buddha stood up from Sumeru Mountain and sighed a Buddhist chant.

The next moment, a magnificent golden bridge crossed the River of Time and landed before him!

Sun Wukong was silent for a moment before he finally stepped onto it. Guided by the Great Dao Golden Bridge, he underwent Ascension to the Dao Dynasty.

Similar scenes played out in the Current World, at various points in time throughout the Celestial Myriad Realms.

One ambitious being after another chose Ascension, chose to go to that supreme great world that unified all!

One brilliant golden bridge after another landed in the era of the Dao Dynasty, as one invincible being after another arrived from their respective Ancient Realms and great worlds.

One with golden pupils, whose eyes blazed like two Great Sun Golden Lamps, gazed at this supreme great world and declared sonorously:

"This must be my fated opportunity! I have been invincible for countless years. It is lonely at the top. In this prosperous age, I am destined to dominate an era and suppress all enemies!"

There was a purple-robed elder who arrived on an ancient ferry, his gaze as sharp as a hawk’s and as wary as a wolf’s.

"In the Canglan Realm, I am the greatest person in history. I thought I had walked to the end of the path, but I never expected such a wondrous place to exist. Here, I am destined to become the First and walk all paths to their end!"

There was an Empress clad in an Imperial Robe, lotuses blooming with her every step. Her stunningly beautiful face was filled with excitement as she too murmured:

"A new Starting Point? The Dao Dynasty, named after the Dao... I’ve taken a liking to it. In the future, I shall become the Lord of this Great Dynasty, look down upon all, and all living beings shall once again kowtow before me!"

Scene after similar scene played out on the golden bridges.

These beings were all invincible in their respective Ancient Realms and great worlds. They had undergone Ascension, and every one of them was brimming with ambition!

However...

"AHEM!"

Yang Erlang, with a third eye on his forehead, walked over, cleared his throat, and announced loudly:

"I am the director of the Dao Dynasty’s Inspection Institute. Are you all this batch of ascenders? Come and register!"

He grabbed the golden-pupiled being and said lazily:

"Immortal Realm, not bad. What’s your name? How old are you? What Cultivation Skills are you proficient in?"

Under Yang Jian’s immense pressure, the golden-pupiled being’s expression stiffened, and he answered every question in detail.

"Alright, what about you?"

Yang Jian looked at the purple-robed elder on the ancient boat and nodded slightly.

"Immortal Perfection. Not bad. Name, age, Cultivation Skill?"

Sensing an aura as deep as an abyss, the purple-robed elder silently lowered his head and answered honestly.

"And then there’s you."

Yang Jian turned to the Empress and yawned.

"First in All Realms, hmm, not bad. Name? Age? Dharma?"

The Empress was furious.

"I am also the lord of a dynasty! Is this how you treat me? I am no criminal, much less guilty of any crime! Why must I answer your..."

As she watched the three-eyed man take out a Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade, felt the killing intent that stung her skin and soul, and saw the terrifying, Heaven-Reaching phenomenon,

the Empress’s voice grew weaker and weaker. In the end, she chose to be pragmatic, stammering out her answers without omitting a single word.

An ascender watched this scene, his heart trembling, and muttered to himself:

"Such a terrifying Existence is merely the director of some Inspection Institute..."

He swallowed hard, a look of awe on his face.

"Then the Lord of the Dao Dynasty... what kind of Heaven-Reaching Existence must he be?"

.........

「Kongtong Immortal Realm, beneath the Stone Stele.」

A certain Lord of the Dao Dynasty chuckled sheepishly and bowed.

"Lady..."

The stunningly beautiful woman grumbled and pouted.

"So you were willing to come back? Finally decided to come see me?"

Ben Bo’Erba said indignantly:

"So you were willing to come back? Finally decided to come see Lady?"

Lu Xuan gave a bitter laugh and bowed helplessly.

"Lady, I was wrong. But before, I really wasn’t strong enough. I couldn’t even find the Kongtong Immortal Realm..."

The stunningly beautiful woman pouted and said fiercely:

"You’re supposed to come up with a solution!"

Ben Bo’Erba nodded in agreement.

"You’re supposed to come up with a solution!"

The stunningly beautiful woman put her hands on her hips.

"Hmph! Your wings have grown stiff, so you’ve forgotten all about a lonely old woman like me!"

Ben Bo’Erba sighed.

"Hmph, your wings have grown stiff, so you’ve forgotten all about Lady, this lonely..."

It met Lu Xuan’s dangerous gaze, shivered, and dove into the stunningly beautiful woman’s arms, not daring to move a muscle.

After shooting Ben Bo’Erba an annoyed glare, Lu Xuan, just as he did all those years ago, obediently bowed.

"Lady, I was wrong."

The stunningly beautiful woman burst out laughing.

"Look at you! You don’t look like a Lord of a Great Dynasty at all!"

After a pause, her expression turned solemn.

"Seeing you, I now understand everything. Restarting the Journey to the West will be the final battle before the last calamity. It is also your chance to prove your Dao through strength. It will likely be extremely dangerous, so don’t let your guard down!"

Lu Xuan nodded seriously.

The stunningly beautiful woman continued:

"This time, I will come and help you. You must also do everything in your power, using every available matter, object, and person! If there’s anything you need, just tell me!"

Lu Xuan thought for a moment, then glanced at a certain fat-headed fish that was already approaching the level of the Celestial Realms. The fish suddenly had a bad feeling.

Then, Lu Xuan chuckled gleefully.

"I think this fish might be of great use during the Journey to the West..."

Ben Bo’Erba sucked in a cold breath. ’Get involved in the struggle for the Dao Fruit?’

Lu Xuan continued:

"Didn’t this little guy punch Taiyi once? Maybe we can use him as bait to fish for Taiyi?"

Ben Bo’Erba’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted dead away.

The stunningly beautiful woman felt a pang of pity for the fish and rapped Lu Xuan on the head irritably.

"Alright, be serious! Let’s talk business!"

Lu Xuan chuckled, then his expression immediately turned solemn. He opened his hands and tossed out two sealed Fu Xis.

"Please, Lady, take a look."

The stunningly beautiful woman glanced over, startled at first, before her expression changed drastically.

"You’re in trouble,"

she said with utmost seriousness.
