I only want to win over the fairy.

Therefore, since coming into this world, he has rarely had contact with Buddhist disciples and has read very few Buddhist scriptures. After all, he doesn't want to become bald, wear a kasaya, and sit there chanting some Buddhist saying.

Perhaps for this reason, even in simulations, he rarely followed the Buddhist path. But after condensing this eternal Dao fruit, Bai Yi felt that he might be able to take some time to study Buddhist scriptures and try to follow the Buddhist path in future simulations.

In addition, this unique legendary skill is quite powerful, with a special attack against cruel and ruthless rulers of heaven and earth, and the attacks also come with additional special effects. It's just unclear whether Guiming can be considered a cruel and ruthless ruler of heaven and earth.

After carefully examining Gui Ming, Bai Yi listed several pieces of information that matched the criteria.

First, the Elegy and Tears Clan was once the strongest race in the world, and Gui Ming, as the Great Emperor of this clan, was naturally the ruler of the world. Even though the Elegy and Tears Clan had died, Gui Ming was still alive and well, which meant that the clan had not been wiped out, so she was still the ruler.

Second, Guiming, as the Great Emperor, disrespected Heaven and Earth, openly defied the Heavenly Dao, and even wanted to kill the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, which was truly cruel.

Third, Gui Ming, as the current emperor and the strongest being, has no sense of power whatsoever. He shows no mercy to those much weaker than himself, which is inhumane.

In conclusion, Gui Ming is a cruel and ruthless ruler of heaven and earth!

Therefore, she must eat her own special attack!

"Whether you are a cruel and heartless ruler of heaven and earth or not."

If Bai Yi could shatter Guiming with this unique legendary skill, he wouldn't need to nourish other worlds; he could simply continue his development in this world.

However, it still needs some time to develop.

Bai Yi didn't believe that he could kill Gui Ming with just this special attack. When the difference in their cultivation levels was too great, all schemes and tricks became ridiculous in the face of absolute power suppression. Therefore, he had to narrow the gap in strength between himself and Gui Ming as much as possible.

Whether it's finding a way to strengthen oneself or weaken her.

..........

the other side.

Having regained her peak strength, Gui Ming is adapting to the changes in the world. The current era is vastly different from the one she ruled in the past, whether it's the concentration of spiritual energy in the world or other aspects.

Back in her time, over 90 percent of the world was ocean, and only a small number of weak creatures lived on land. Now, however, the creatures living on land are the masters of the world, which makes her sigh with emotion.

However, as an emperor, these changes in the world were insignificant to her. The reason she needed to adapt was simply because she was not reincarnated to become an emperor again, but rather relied on the blessings she received from the river of time to regain the power she had severed and return to her peak. This undoubtedly violated the rules of the world, so the suppression of the world on her made her quite uncomfortable.

Moreover, receiving blessings from the river of time also comes with the risk of being retaliated against by it.

The being that bestowed these blessings upon her might not care about this backlash at all, but she couldn't ignore it, because this backlash was not a trivial matter that she could easily overlook.

Fortunately, these backlashes from the river of time are not entirely a burden. According to Guiming's judgment, if he can get through this backlash and fully adapt, his research on the Way of Time will be even more profound.

"In at most thirty years, I will be able to fully adapt to this world, eliminate the backlash from the river of time, and even deepen my understanding of the Dao of Time!"

"It's just that the speed at which the Heavenly Dao is growing is too fast. If he is allowed to develop in peace, thirty years is enough time for him to improve to the point where he can evade my search, and it's even possible that he could evolve to the point where he can kill me. That guy is just too powerful, unreasonably powerful. He is definitely not someone that an ordinary Great Emperor like me can contend with. I must nip him in the bud before he grows up!"

"But that guy is really illogical. If I go there rashly, what if she suddenly goes into overdrive, gains the power of heaven and earth, and defeats me? Wouldn't I die a terrible death?"

Bai Yi's image flashed through Gui Ming's mind. Under the influence of some unknown power, she was absolutely certain that he was the true Heavenly Dao.

Thinking of the terrifying scene she saw in the memories of Supreme Bei Ze, where Bai Yi killed a Supreme with a single sword strike, as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, and then recalling the scene she saw when she received the power from the River of Time, where the opponent swung that sword that cleaved Yin and Yang, instantly severing his own life and cutting off the Yang within his Yin and Yang, she felt a wave of fear.

This is why, despite being a peak emperor with such immense power, she dares not nip her opponent in the bud if she so desires.

She was hesitant. If she waited until she had adapted to the suppression of heaven and earth and relieved the backlash from the river of time before killing Bai Yi, it seemed like she could kill him when he was weak. But what if he suddenly became powerful and, like the scene she had seen, beat her to her knees and begged for mercy, or even sprayed champagne all over the ground and turned into a water-spraying fish?

To be on the safe side, it would be best to integrate one's imperial mark into the world, allowing the nearly extinct Elegy Pearl Tears clan to regain their position as rulers of the world, once again enjoying the power to control the sky, the earth, and the sea, and crushing the opponent with absolute strength.

But what if we give the other side time to develop their strength...?

At this moment, Gui Ming was completely unaware that her Emperor Realm Heart had already been damaged. This was the backlash from the River of Time. The backlash not only eroded her power and origin, but also her thoughts and state of mind.

Suddenly, the laws of time within Guiming's body experienced a subtle fluctuation, causing her to frown immediately.

The future, in the long river of time, seems to have undergone some changes again.

Having absorbed the memories of the Supreme Being of the Northern Ze, she immediately thought of that mysterious and unpredictable cultivation simulator. She believed that it must be that other beings who possessed that thing obtained something from it, thus causing some changes to the future of reality.

The alteration of the timeline is quite terrifying; it could cause the entity that was originally destined to win to lose, while the entity that was originally destined to lose could turn the tables and defeat the other due to certain changes.

Out of caution, I'll observe the messages in the river of time again, even if it comes at a higher price.

So she spared no expense, sacrificing her own essence and lifespan, to activate the laws of time and begin observing the future. She then saw the correctness of her strategy—she had successfully engraved the Emperor's Mark and the mark of the past rulers of heaven and earth into the world, changing the world for herself, turning the land of Kyushu into a vast sea, and establishing a glorious underwater dynasty within it. This allowed her strength to break through once again, and she lived for four lifetimes before facing death. Throughout all of this, the Heavenly Dao Bai Yi was nowhere to be found.

Because her grasp of the Way of Time was not comprehensive, she could only glimpse some key moments, but even those key moments were enough!

In the future observed this time, Bai Yi was nowhere to be found from beginning to end, and when I checked his existence, I learned that he was no longer there.

After reading it, a pleasant smile appeared on her lips. She never expected that the being she feared most would die so easily. Without a doubt, this timeline was the best time for her.

Not only did he suppress an era again and improve his strength once more, but he also lived for four lifetimes, something he never dared to dream of in his current life.

Even at his peak, he wasn't confident he could live a second life, which is why he chose to sever himself and become the Lord of the Forbidden Zone. Yet, in the future he observed, he actually lived four lives!

As for Tian Dao Bai Yi, he probably made enemies during his growth and was directly killed.

That's true. Even the most talented and monstrous beings are afraid of unexpected disasters. He can suddenly unleash his power and crush me, but can he maintain that power forever?

That definitely won't work, so as long as I don't trigger the other party's desperate counterattack, I don't need to worry about anything!

"Hahahaha!!! This is fantastic! This is the future that suits me best!! Who in the world can stand against me now!!!"

She has decided to lie low for a while, until the Sorrowful Tears Clan is resurrected and becomes the ruler of heaven and earth, and until she can re-engrave her own imperial mark in the world to suppress this era. Then, no matter what reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao you are, you will never be able to surpass me!

Thinking of this, she took out her imperial weapon, a scepter that looked nothing like a weapon.

This imperial weapon was never designed for combat; it only had auxiliary functions. If used in battle, it would be of little use other than as a weapon.

However, if this imperial weapon is placed in a temple constructed from one's own power, one can continuously create one's own people and cover the surrounding world with one's own power, making it one's own territory, constantly empowering one, enabling one to exert greater power and have greater endurance.

"First, I'll find a place to build my temple, preferably at the confluence of spiritual veins, a place with abundant fortune. Once the temple is completed, my power will reach a new level!"

"By then, even if he is alive, even if he can unleash his full power, even if he has the strength to replace me, as long as I don't show myself and only send my trusted men to fight him, I will eventually wear him down. I don't believe that if we all attack at once, he can kill us all before his strength is exhausted."

"Well, we don't necessarily have to be enemies. If he is willing to obediently submit to me, swear allegiance to me, and then swear that all living beings are loyal to me and will not harm me, it is not impossible for me to let him go."

In high spirits, Gui Ming found everything pleasing to the eye, and his wine-red eyes were tinged with a golden luster.

............

Tianxuan Peak.

After being away for several days, Qin Xin finally returned. This time, she not only brought back the corpse of the White Emperor, but also a large amount of cultivation resources.

Through this simulation, Qin Xin already knew that Bai Yi planned to take Tianxuan Peak to Kairun, so she couldn't fall behind. Naturally, she returned as quickly as possible, intending to go together and bring enough resources needed for survival and development.

However, when she returned, she found Bai Yi lying dead, his body tattered and mangled, clearly having suffered a series of impacts from some enormous force.

She clearly remembered that when she returned from the simulation, the other party was completely unharmed.

and......

She glanced at Xiao Jinxuan, who was taking care of Bai Yi, and smelled a familiar scent on her. It wasn't the scent left on her body from when they were together; it was the scent that only remained after intimate contact and close interaction.

Tsk, that simulation last time was a complete waste of time and effort, and it benefited someone else!

Qin Xin grew angrier the more she thought about it. Back then, she had entered the immersive simulation with Bai Yi and even used the corpse of the White Emperor as a wager, all in order to bring herself and Bai Yi closer. She never expected that she would leave too early and instead allow Bai Yi and Xiao Jinxuan's relationship to develop.

It's like digging a hole for yourself and burying it.

However, she did not show any dissatisfaction. After all, in the cultivation world, it was normal for powerful cultivators to have multiple wives and concubines, so it would be her turn sooner or later. Moreover, Bai Yi's strength was relatively weak at the moment, and he could probably only handle one Xiao Jinxuan. If she were added to the mix, his body might not be able to withstand it.

"I've brought you your Emperor Corpse, but you'd better not use that form casually. Every time you use that state, it consumes your essence, and you'll die after a maximum of three uses."

Qin Xin was quite familiar with Bai Yi's God of Destruction form, so she knew exactly where its limits were. After giving him some advice, she continued, "If you plan to go to that world, don't be too conspicuous this time. Focusing on your development is the most important thing."

Bai Yi nodded: "There's no need to go anymore. I've found a way to fight against Guiming, but I need your help."

Looking at Bai Yi's face, Qin Xin seemed to sense something and frowned, asking, "How do you need my assistance?"

"I need the assistance of the Heavenly Dao. If I want to weaken Gui Ming's strength, then I naturally need to rely on the assistance of the Heavenly Dao. As long as I can weaken Gui Ming's strength and narrow the gap between me and her, I am confident that I can defeat her!"

Chapter 163 Attack on the Human Emperor's Palace

The Way of Heaven cannot be killed.

He may be replaced, may become something else, may disappear temporarily, but he can never die.

Because this world still exists, and as long as it exists and has not been destroyed, the Heavenly Dao will not die. Therefore, Xuanyuan Meng is not worried about dying.

For her, death was not the end, but a new beginning.

Killing her would at most cause her consciousness to disappear, allowing her to return to the world, back to the original form of the Heavenly Dao, and back to the original, desireless Heavenly Dao.

Although to humans it may seem no different from death, to the Heavenly Way it is merely a change in the universe. Whether one is born or dies, it is all part of the changes in the universe and also part of the Heavenly Way.

Besides, as long as Bai Yi is alive, she will not fear death.

Even if her consciousness completely disappears and she returns to the ruthless and desireless Heavenly Dao, as long as the cultivation simulator is still on her body, and as long as Bai Yi repeats the operation of transforming into the Heavenly Dao in any simulation in the future, she can be resurrected!

"Your manners are terrible. You know it won't do any good, but you still do it. As expected, the people of the Demonic Sect are a bunch of chaotic and evil troublemakers."

After being released by Qin Xin, Xuan Yuanmeng stretched her body. She really didn't expect that this demonic witch would seal her away without considering the consequences, or even intend to kill her.

Normal people would weigh the pros and cons and make the choice that is most beneficial to themselves, but these demonic sects...

The main point is that I'm happy to do whatever I want, just like the people of my motherland.

Fortunately, this Grand Elder of the Eternal Night Cult was not a completely unruly and chaotic evil who did whatever she wanted; at least she listened to Bai Yi.

"Letting someone like you, who's secretly plotting something, move around freely is the most dangerous thing we could do."

Qin Xin naturally disliked Xuan Yuanmeng quite a bit, not for any other reason than that she felt that there was a pure monster hidden under that human skin.

Seemingly affectionate, but actually heartless.

She has no understanding of human nature.

“My heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and all my deeds are for justice. Everything I do is for the future and happiness of this world. Only when the world becomes better can living beings become better.” Xuan Yuanmeng’s aura was in no way weak: “If my plan had been followed, everything would have been settled by now.”

Qin Xin sneered: "Hmph, you pure coin! If you hadn't done those reckless things, would the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone have gone to such lengths to kill you, dragging us into this?! Besides, you should have just stayed in heaven and been your Heavenly Dao, why did you have to reincarnate as a human?"

She got more and more excited as she spoke: "And your so-called control of the Heavenly Dao is ultimately just for your own benefit. The first step you took to gain power was to overthrow everything, without any regard for the consequences. For you, the Heavenly Dao, you can kill living beings at will, but for us, among the living beings you killed at will were people we knew. And the sects like the Eternal Night Sect and the Profound Heaven Sect that you easily destroyed were our homes where we had lived for a long time. How could a self-righteous guy like you not be resented!"

“…” Xuan Yuanmeng, who had been thoroughly scolded, was stunned. After reflecting on herself, she realized that it seemed to be true.

In the simulation in which she successfully reclaimed the power of Heaven, apart from the confidants she had cultivated, it seemed that everyone, including Bai Yi, kept a certain distance from her.

However, she still did not think it was her fault. Everything in the cultivation world was too rigid and corrupt. Instead of spending a lot of energy, time and resources to slowly change it, it would be faster to tear everything down and start over.

“My actions are not driven by selfishness or personal desire. I did not choose to become human based on the pursuit of power or the idea of ​​dominating the world, nor did I want to freely control the power of the Heavenly Dao. Everything I do is for the sake of this world. My actions are based on my countless calculations and judgments that I have to do this.”

"That's not your place to be the judge! If you're willing to be the judge, then go back to being the Heavenly Way. If the Heavenly Way were to send down divine punishment to reshape the world, I could simply treat it as an unavoidable disaster, not like you. Besides, you have emotions, you're already a living being, do you really have the right to judge?"
