From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

The Ancestral God Mountain is thousands of feet high and covers an area of ​​more than a hundred miles. From a distance, it does not look like a mountain, but rather like a vast and boundless landmass.

Although Taiyue was close to undergoing its seventh tribulation, upon sensing this aura, its scales opened and closed, releasing streams of bright yellow energy, and its eyes were fixed on the raging green light.

Xu Xing glanced at him and immediately grasped all the details of the other party's background, while Xu Wuyi didn't even cast a glance at him.

In his view, the difference between the power of seven or eight tribulations was not significant; it was merely a matter of one or two punches.

Unless there are five or six powerful figures at the level of ministers of the Central World, each carrying peerless magical treasures and forming a formation, they would not be qualified to make Void One, who has now entered the "Thousand Transformations" realm, take a second look.

Moreover, Xu Wuyi could sense that a large portion of the opponent's strength lay in their magical artifacts.

He was a pure martial artist who only believed in his own body and never used magic weapons, so naturally he had no interest in the three Dao Ancestors.

Xu Xing commented:
"Although these three people haven't mastered the supernatural arts, their skill in crafting magical artifacts is quite good. In terms of sheer power, they are already close to the treasures left behind by the ancient philosophers, and even some of the legacy of the Yang Gods."

Yin Yue, who knew more about the Nine Abyss Divine Realm, nodded and said:
"The Nine Abyss Divine Realm is rich in resources and has the legacy of generations of cultivators. Even so, it is quite remarkable that three peak sixth tribulation cultivators could refine such a magic weapon."

Xu Wu frowned and said:
“Brother Xu, the path of cultivation lies in purity. To cross the endless sea of ​​suffering and reach the other shore, what you cultivate is nothing more than the word 'self.' Magical treasures are merely external things; what are they worth relying on?”

Xu Xing shook his head and said:

“Magic treasures are also a means of verifying one’s path to enlightenment. Although Brother Xu is a martial artist, there is no need for him to be so averse to them.”

The Buddha said, "If you know that my teachings are like a raft, then even the Dharma should be abandoned." As long as you can cross to the other shore, why be attached to it?

Xu Wuyi calmly said:
"Although the World Honored One is one of the few Yang Gods and the one who has shattered the void and attained dual enlightenment in the past 100,000 years, he has never transcended the era and reached the other shore. So what does his word count for?"

“Even if the World-Honored One were truly alive today, with our abilities, we could certainly challenge him once or twice. Why must Brother Xu regard him as the ultimate standard?”

Xu Xing smiled again:
"Xu quoted the Buddha's words simply because they suited his mind. As for who is right and who is wrong, we'll find out when we fight."

Upon hearing this, Xu Wu glanced at Xu Xing again and suddenly chuckled softly:
“Brother Xu, since we met, I have grown to like you more and more. I think you are a perfect and flawless person, but that is not a good thing.”

"Because there is no such thing as perfection in this world. If I, Xu, acknowledge your perfection, then either I have a problem or you have a problem. More likely, it is that both of us have problems, and we have fallen into some kind of imperceptible error, where the error is covering up the error."

He stood with his hands behind his back, pacing slowly in place, and said unhurriedly:
"I was just thinking about whether I had gone astray, which is why I thought you were perfect. I wondered if I needed to reflect on myself. But now it seems that there are indeed differences between us."

Xu Xing also said with a sigh:

“Brother Xu’s comprehension is truly the best I have ever seen in my life. This disagreement is not a bad thing. On the contrary, it allows us to discuss the Dao and verify the fundamentals of what we have learned. If there were no disagreement, there would be no point in discussing these things.”

After saying that, he looked somewhat regretful and shook his head, saying:

"Although Ancestral God Mountain is a good reference, it is far inferior to Brother Xu."

"Alright, alright, let's go into the secret realm first and meet that number one demon of all time."

After Xu Xing finished speaking, he turned his head and his spirit entered the realm of Taiyi, drawing upon a bit of innate divine will to combine with the primordial energy, which merged with his own true essence and magical power, encompassing heaven and earth and all things.

The three Dao Ancestors, riding on the Ancestral Divine Mountain, are still thousands of miles away from Xu Xing. However, for experts of their level, this distance is as clear as the lines on their palms, with every detail visible.

However, when they extended their divine senses there, they received no feedback, as if there were no living beings there. Instead, they found a mysterious and unfathomable void.

As they became aware of the chaotic void, it expanded in an instant, completely engulfing the three of them.
At that instant, the three Great Dao Ancestors felt as if they had returned to the primordial chaos before the creation of the universe, when all things were formless. They witnessed firsthand how heaven and earth separated, how purity and turbidity were distinguished, and how all things evolved from nothingness into existence.

At that moment, the three of them felt only great joy and freedom. They felt as if they had crossed the threshold of "unity of heaven and man" and reached the supreme realm of "union with the Tao." They forgot everything in the human world and were immersed in it, unwilling to wake up.

However, the Ancestral Mountain suddenly lost the power of the three Dao Ancestors to sustain it, and its own power could not form a cycle for a while, so it suddenly fell down.

To the onlookers, Xu Xing merely glanced at the Ancestral Divine Mountain, and the thousands of feet tall mountain crashed to the ground with a deafening roar. The shockwaves spread far and wide, causing the surrounding area to churn and throb as if an earth dragon were turning over.

Fortunately, this place is the sixth level of the Nine Abyss Divine Realm. If it were in the Great Qian Heavenly Continent, the number of dead and injured from this fall alone could exceed one million or even ten million.

Xu Xing's gaze flickered upon seeing this scene.

He suddenly remembered something: in the world of the Ming Dynasty, he had once met a white-clad bandit hiding in the Southern Shaolin Temple.

This man once comprehended a shocking and earth-shaking fist technique from the great earthquake of the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing's reign. But now, he, Xu, can create such a scene with just a glance.

Upon seeing this, Xu Wu's gaze also became somewhat solemn. After pondering for a moment, he finally asked:
"Brother Xu's fist intent seems to have the shadows of the Supreme Dao, the Longevity Emperor, and the Immortal God King, but it surpasses them and has a unique style."

"Is this the world you seek?"

Logically speaking, the martial arts intent of a martial arts master is the culmination of their life experiences and beliefs, leaving no room for deception.

Just like the intent of the fist of nothingness, it is pure and self-centered, with nothing else to rely on.

However, Xu Wuyi could not sense any personal characteristics in Xu Xing's fist intent, only pure vastness and emptiness, which completely simulated the scene before the creation of heaven and earth, and also had a kind of clear and spiritual essence, which was born in it.

The Void was deeply connected to the Immortal God King and was quite familiar with its aura, but compared to Xu Xing, even this Child of the Great Dao paled in comparison.

Xu Xing, reminiscing about the past, shook his head upon hearing this and said:

"This is merely an achievement in cultivation. If Brother Xu is interested, I will not hide it from you once we enter the Longevity Secret Realm." As Xu Xing spoke, he stomped his right foot, and Mount Tai took flight, heading straight for the abyss in the center of the sixth level. Along the way, they saw a vast cluster of cities, with countless sword lights crisscrossing among them, all belonging to Daoists who had cultivated to become Ghost Immortals.

Hong Yi's eyes lit up when he saw this.

He studied history from a young age, practiced cultivation, and carefully researched ancient secrets. His current dream is to enable everyone in the world to cultivate, master their own destiny, roam freely in the world, and not be bound by their own desires.

The scene before him now perfectly matched Hong Yi's imagination.

Unfortunately, the population of the sixth level is not large, and the vast majority of them are members of the Taoist sect. It is still quite different from the world he envisioned, where everyone is like a dragon and ordinary people can cultivate.

Upon reaching the Cambrian Abyss in the middle of the sixth level, every drop of water here is firmly bound by the void structure. If it were released, it would immediately transform into a boundless ocean with infinite mass.

However, for powerful beings like Xu Xing and Xu Wuyi, who are capable of altering the cosmic constant on a small scale and mastering the fundamental laws, the mutated void structure is not an obstacle.

Further down into the Abyss of the Underworld, there was a tangible river of time. As soon as Hong Yi entered it, he recalled the "Imperial Extreme Reversal Technique" that the Great Ancestor of the Great Zhou had used when he faced him.

However, the power of time reversal here is many times stronger than the "Imperial Extreme Reversal Technique". Even with Hong Yi's current level, as long as he is out of protection, he will be reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Upon arriving at this point, even Xu Xing and Xu Wuyi paused. Xu Wuyi, gazing at the frozen time around him, his eyes shining, said in a light voice:

"It is said that before the end of their lifespan, all the powerful Yang Gods of each generation would go to the origin of the universe at its very center in order to slow down their decay and wait for an opportunity to transcend the era. Pan Huang was the only exception."

Upon hearing this, Hong Yi, recalling the ancient books he had read, frowned and asked in confusion:
"Isn't this vast world the origin of heaven and earth and the universe?"

Void shook its head and said:
"The vast world is the first world created after the creation of heaven and earth. The true origin is even before the creation of heaven and earth. It does not even exist in the true world, but in the deepest part of the river of time."

Xu Wu shifted his gaze, observing the Abyss of the Underworld once more, using his fist intent to comprehend the laws governing the flow of time. After a while, he nodded and said:

"However, your Great Thousand World does indeed have its wonders. This Nine Abyss Divine Realm and the Origin Land also have some mysterious connection and some of its effects. No wonder Kong chose this place to try to shatter the vacuum."

However, although the Abyss of the Underworld is mysterious, it only contains part of the wonders of the Origin Land and cannot trap Xu Wuyi and Xu Xing, two powerful individuals who have already surpassed the level of nine tribulations.

After briefly comprehending the secrets of time, the two tore through the void barrier once more and officially descended into the Realm of Immortality, the place where ancient Nine Tribulations experts chose to perish.

If the rumors are true, there should be countless remains of cultivators and numerous magical treasures from the ancient times here, which is also the most attractive aspect of the Nine Abyss Divine Realm to powerful outsiders.

However, what Xu Xing saw was a void world, somewhat similar to the Nine Void Boundless Realm, only without the interference of the historical fog, empty and boundless.

Here, everything seems eternally still and unchanging, an unchanging void:

"This space is empty and filled with the true energy of longevity, enough to freeze the soul of a nine-times tribulation expert. However, for our physical bodies, it is a rare form of tempering."

Xu Xing nodded, agreeing with Xu Wuyi's assessment.

After withdrawing his fist intent, he felt as if he had entered a sea or a swamp, where his mental activity and physical body were greatly restricted.

In particular, the speed of divine thought circulation has decreased by billions of times. Even ordinary ninth-tribulation experts, without the protection of magic treasures, can hardly think within it. Once they enter the Longevity Secret Realm, they will be completely sealed off.

However, for martial arts immortals who are one with their spirit and body, this is actually a good thing, as they can use the suppression of the longevity energy to continuously hone their fist intent and physique.

The two floated in the void, walking and stopping along the way, constantly exchanging martial arts insights. They didn't know how long they had walked when they saw another strange world appear before them.

The area here is not large, and there is no true energy of immortality in it. There is only a magnificent Saha Tree that stretches to the sky and connects with the earth, supporting the heavens and the earth and constantly absorbing the true energy of immortality to strengthen itself.

Beneath the tree sat a giant ape cross-legged. This giant ape resembled Ba in appearance, but it had no violent aura at all. Instead, it was peaceful, with a profound and unfathomable energy that filled the space between heaven and earth.

Clearly, he was not affected by the Longevity Qi, and his vital energy was deeply contained, circulating in an extremely slow manner, as if it could revive at any moment and reappear its divine power that had traversed countless ages.

Xu Xing and Xu Wuyi's gazes did not fall on the monkey, but instead looked at the strange fruit hanging on the Saha Tree.

The fruit, shaped like a heart, throbbed in harmony with the monkey's faint breathing, radiating outwards waves of pure energy, as if to shake the world and shatter the universe.

Upon seeing the giant ape, the two demon monkeys, Ba and Bai Ziyue, were filled with excitement. Ba, in particular, was moved to tears and, disregarding the occasion, kowtowed repeatedly on Taiyue's back.

This giant ape before them was none other than the most renowned legend among the apes, the number one demon of all time, who once roamed freely without restraint!
But after looking at it for a while, Xu Wu couldn't help but shake his head:
"This monkey has indeed obtained the inheritance of the Longevity Emperor. Those ancient Taoist treasures must have been plundered by him and used to refine this Saha Tree."

"However, he is overthinking things by trying to break through the vacuum. It seems that this monkey's martial arts level is not as good as yours or mine. Alas."

Since arriving in the Great Thousand World and experiencing the Nine Abyss Divine Realm, Xu Wuyi has mastered the secret of shattering the vacuum. He knows that to break through this barrier, one cannot rely solely on accumulating true qi; one must open the ninety-nine orifices of the human body.

Judging from the monkey's actions, it seems that it has not yet grasped this point. In terms of martial arts understanding, this senior has actually been outdone by him and Xu Xing.

Xu Xing laughed and said:
“Brother Xu, why don’t we join forces and help him out? Let’s see what level he can reach after fusing this Longevity Dao Fruit with our true energy.”

"If we could create another expert who has also mastered the 'Thousand Transformations' technique, wouldn't it be even more interesting to have a three-way battle?"

After thinking for a moment, Xu Wuyi, somewhat eager to try, nodded and said:
"Brother Xu is absolutely right. After I came to this world, I have gained some understanding of the realm of shattering the void and the ninety-nine orifices outside the human body."

"Let's give it a try and see if this monkey has the talent to truly break through the barrier after receiving this part of the inheritance!"

Although they knew that once "Kong" successfully shattered the vacuum, he would undoubtedly become the strongest among the three, neither Xu Xing nor Xu Wuyi felt any fear. They only wanted to witness the other's path to enlightenment. (End of Chapter)
