Sweeping across the heavens, starting with the first emperor of the ancient times.

Jiang Hao felt a deep sense of respect and sincerely expressed his feelings.

"This is the true strength of the world, the strength of the people."

The Lord of the Miro Palace possessed unparalleled combat prowess, yet he was equally compassionate towards all living beings.

He possessed extraordinary strength, yet he never coveted immortality; all his thoughts and desires were for the sake of all living beings and the universe.

Throughout history, countless powerful beings have emerged across the myriad realms, vying for the Dao, destiny, and transcendence. Yet, those willing to sacrifice their own Dao fruits and cultivation to exchange for a sliver of life for the sentient beings of this world are few and far between.

The Lord of Miro Palace was one of them, and it can be said that the Lord of Miro Palace truly deserves his title as the strongest person in the sixteenth era of the universe.

Even if there is no solution ahead, even if the ending is destined to be annihilation, we will still fight against the heavens and earth, and live up to the expectations of all living beings.

Jiang Hao has always had a good impression of powerful saviors like this.

"It turns out that even the most prosperous world cannot escape the fate of an era, and even the most powerful universe still has its own flaws and constraints. The annihilation of this great universe is truly difficult to resolve."

Even the all-powerful master of the Miro Palace could not completely sever the cycle of epochal destruction, demonstrating just how terrifying this great cosmic cataclysm is.

"It seems that only a Celestial Emperor realm is needed to resolve this ultimate void universe annihilation."

Although Quasi-Immortal Emperors are extremely powerful, capable of shattering countless worlds with a wave of their hand, destroying billions of star seas with a single thought, and ending the world in the blink of an eye, they can recreate the world and rebuild a new universe, possessing the astonishing power to create and destroy the world.

Destruction and creation are merely actions that disrupt or reorganize existing spacetime and matter.

The Great Desolation of the Universe, caused by the continuous expansion of the ultimate void, originates from defects in the underlying framework of the universe and the fundamental rules of spacetime.

Simply destroying the old universe and creating a new one, while still using the same flawed set of underlying laws, will only lead to repeated epochal calamities.

The power of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor can easily destroy all things in the world, but it is not enough to rewrite a new set of complete original order of the universe from the root, nor can it repair the fatal flaws left at the beginning of the birth of heaven and earth.

Destroying or creating the world is merely the ultimate expression of power.

Eradicating the Great Annihilation of the Epoch, however, is the perfection of the Dao, reshaping the foundation of the universe. The difficulty of the two is completely different.

It can be said that although the title "quasi-immortal emperor" has the word "quasi" in it, the gap between a quasi-immortal emperor and an immortal emperor is immeasurable. No matter how many quasi-immortal emperors there are, they are all ants in front of an immortal emperor, comparable to the difference between a human and an ant, and can be played with at will.

"The task is arduous and the road ahead is long; becoming a Celestial King is just the beginning."

Jiang Hao was deeply moved, which made it even clearer to him that he needed to become stronger, even more powerful.

Fortunately, there was no great annihilation calamity in the Three Realms.

This put Jiang Hao at ease. Not all worlds experience a great cosmic annihilation; it's just that this vast area where the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is located doesn't have one.

Jiang Hao calmed his mind and continued to examine the various cultivation techniques, looking for anything special or interesting.

Not to Jiang Hao's disappointment, another interesting cultivation method appeared before his eyes, and it was even three scriptures side by side: the Present Tathagata Sutra, the Future Unborn Sutra, and the Past Amitabha Sutra.

Past, present, and future stand side by side, representing three distinct eras, yet integrating the past, present, and future.

"The scriptures related to time, space, and cause and effect are quite interesting."

The Past Amitabha Sutra holds the eternal past.

Once recited, countless past causes and effects will appear in one's mind, and all things that have happened in the world will be settled and never changed.

This sutra focuses on cultivating the mind and spirit, discerning the illusions of the past, and illuminating the karmic connections of previous lives.

Holding fast to the past, remaining steadfast in one's original mind, and not letting the changing world shake one's foundation on the path—this is the essence of Amitabha's teachings.

The Present Tathagata Sutra is about grasping the reality of the present moment.

Do not dwell on the past, nor anticipate the future, but focus solely on the supreme power of this very moment in the world.

This scripture focuses on refining the flesh and blood, tempering the body, and attaining the Great Dao.

The essence lies in seizing the moment and unleashing all power at this instant. With a single thought, all things manifest. The physical body is the Dharma body of the Tathagata, and every inch of muscle, bone, and flesh is the truth of this world.

Living in the present moment, yet possessing the power to shake the universe, without clinging to the past or worrying about the future, bearing immense power with a fleeting body, achieving physical immortality, and sweeping across the world—this is the characteristic of the Tathagata Sutra.

The "Future Without Birth Sutra" holds the power to control the variables of the future.

The past is fixed, the present is fleeting, only the future is infinite, possessing infinite possibilities, but also harboring infinite calamities. This scripture is the most profound and unpredictable, not following fixed numbers, deducing the course of all causes and effects, glimpsing future fortune and misfortune, and foreseeing the trajectory of world events.

Once mastered, one can manipulate the threads of destiny, seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, and drawing upon the boundless power of the future to bless oneself.

The future is inherently without birth or death; everything is yet to happen and can be changed. A single thought can stir up the course of destiny, drawing upon opportunities and power yet to arrive and transforming them into one's own means.

The three sutras, when practiced individually, represent the supreme and unparalleled path in the world.

If the three scriptures are combined into one, traversing the past, present, and future, and breaking through the layers of illusion of time, one can transcend the sea of ​​suffering in reincarnation, break free from the shackles of fate, touch that ethereal other shore, and attain true immortal freedom.

"Indeed, although the world in which this scripture is located is not a very powerful Great Thousand World, there are indeed many amazing people in that world, and some of their ideas are very interesting."

Jiang Hao carefully comprehended the teachings and gained a great deal. The myriad forms of the heavens and the myriad paths of existence, each world contained its own unique Dao truth.

These three techniques are of extremely high ideals, not emphasizing brute force and killing, but focusing on transcending the mind, transcending time, and transcending cause and effect.

"Shattering the vacuum, the martial arts of humans and immortals, the Hundred Schools of Thought, the changing of destiny..."

Jiang Hao was instantly intrigued by this world and learned that the world from which this cultivation technique originated was also extraordinary.

The world system is unique, and the way to transcend is different from all other heavens, with two paths: the physical body and the primordial spirit.

The core concept of cultivation in this world is: the physical body is the boat, the soul is the person, together we cross the sea of ​​suffering and reach the other shore.

"The physical body can transform in countless ways, shattering the void, while the divine soul and yang spirit are immortal. The cultivation methods of this world are quite good, with many similarities to cultivating the body as a seed. This world has quite a few talented people."

Jiang Hao felt a strong sense of curiosity. In such a unique world with its special system, distinctive ideas, and outstanding people, those who could be called the Chosen One must have extraordinary talents and extraordinary opportunities far beyond ordinary people.

There is indeed a chosen one in this world, and this chosen one is named Hongyi.

He was originally an insignificant illegitimate son of the Marquis of Wuwen in the current dynasty. His birth mother was of humble origin and died unjustly at an early age. He grew up in the Marquis's mansion, helpless and alone, suffering cold looks and bullying from everyone in the mansion. His status was even lower than that of the servants in the mansion.

In his youth, his only wish was to pass the imperial examinations, to gain recognition for his mother who had died unjustly, and to be able to be enshrined in the ancestral hall and return to her grave.

By chance, Hong Yi unexpectedly obtained a peerless secret manual, the "Past Amitabha Sutra," and from then on, he embarked on the path of cultivating both martial arts and spiritual power.

Moreover, Hongyi truly deserves to be called the chosen one of destiny. His comprehension is unparalleled in the world. He is well-versed in the classics of various schools of thought, can temper his physical body to break through the void, and his spiritual cultivation is progressing by leaps and bounds.

They faced numerous thorns and struggled to survive amidst court intrigues, sectarian battles, and dynastic conflicts.

He faced death and annihilation several times, but always managed to turn the tide with his wisdom, resilience, and extraordinary decisiveness, forging his own path through adversity.

He rose from a lowly scholar who suffered humiliation to conquer the world, stirring up the winds and clouds of the entire dynasty. As a son of a concubine, he shook all the deeply rooted class and social customs in the world.

In Hong Yi's tumultuous life, there was one particularly special opponent: Champion Hou.

Champion Hou was also exceptionally talented and possessed extraordinary opportunities, and his rise to power was no less rapid than that of Hong Yi.

Unlike the native cultivators of this world, he was a transmigrator from another world.

He arrived in this world with a different set of knowledge, understanding, and ideas from another world, his perspective and vision were different from ordinary people, like a time traveler.

His methods and behaviors were completely different from those of the world, far more advanced, leaving the world in awe.

Moreover, this Marquis of Champion was extremely domineering, ambitious, and cunning.

He was well-versed in worldly affairs and strategies, and was skilled in military campaigns. As a young man, he commanded a large army, swept across the land, and achieved numerous military exploits and immense power.

Champion Hou also constantly competes for the world's great secret manuals, his physical body and soul advance in tandem, his cultivation progresses by leaps and bounds, he holds countless trump cards, and his fortune is so abundant that it is almost heaven-defying.

He was determined to control his own destiny, attempting to seize control of the entire dynasty and rewrite the world order with his power.

The two clashed and maneuvered repeatedly, engaging in power struggles in the imperial court, facing each other with weapons on the battlefield, and clashing in their ideals on the path of morality.

Both possessed extraordinary talent and were blessed with great opportunities; one wanted everyone to be like a dragon, bringing benefit to all living beings.

One wanted to rule the world and be the only one who mattered. Their paths were completely opposite, and they fought several times to the death, their battles becoming increasingly fierce and evenly matched.

For Hongyi, most of his other opponents were just passersby who could be easily crushed. Only Champion Hou was not only a formidable rival of equal strength, but also a mirror reflecting his own path.

As Jiang Hao gazed at the scenes of Champion Hou and Hong Yi's life-or-death battles from his memory, a hint of interest flickered in his eyes.

"The so-called battle between time travelers and the chosen one is quite an interesting fateful duel."
