The plants and trees became extensions of his senses, and his mind merged with them, allowing him to perceive the profound truths of the universe from another perspective.
From the outside, Li Kai and the others saw vegetation spreading out in all directions from him, even growing on the water.
Beneath him, the Yin-Yang axis appeared black and white, with wisps of life and death flowing within it.
Everyone present felt the profound meaning of life and death unfolding before their eyes, as if they could reach out and grasp eternity.
Li Kai was the first to realize what was happening and told everyone to move away so they wouldn't be affected by the ripples.
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, a golden light shone in the sky, and a figure tore through the void and arrived above Golden Feather Village. The aura emanating from his body caused many ferocious beasts in the Great Wilderness to flee back to their lairs.
Beside the stream, Li Dao leisurely opened his eyes. The Yin-Yang Dao axis beneath him contracted, and the wildly growing grass and plants withered away.
"The difference between life and death can be made in an instant."
This was a transformation, a transformation of the soul. The imposing aura around him gradually subsided, and his eyes became as deep as an abyss.
"Enlightenment by the stream was all in vain; only today do I realize my true self."
With a wave of his hand, the void in front of him shattered, and he appeared directly in mid-air.
"You've arrived."
Li Dao was not surprised to see the golden figure, and could even sense the power surging forth from it like a volcano.
The newcomer was none other than Kunpengzi, who had just emerged from the Primordial Treasure Realm. Judging from the imposing aura emanating from him, it was clear that his strength had recovered considerably.
"Your aura has changed; you now possess the demeanor of a true powerhouse."
Kunpengzi sensed something unusual about Li Dao and was quite surprised. Seeing the calm look in Li Dao's eyes, he knew that something big must have happened to Li Dao, but he did not ask any further questions.
Li Dao shrugged, seemingly unconcerned, and said:
"A strong person, huh? That's interesting."
"You didn't come here just to catch up with old friends, did you?"
Kunpengzi didn't dwell on anything else; when Li Dao asked, he slowly replied:
"I am about to enter the Upper Realm. Before I go, I plan to practice on these Upper Realm minions left in the Lower Realm."
"At that time, there will be no gods in the lower realm, and the heavens and earth will be sealed off, making it even more difficult to go to the upper realm. Do you want to go up with me?"
After a moment's thought, Li Dao refused. Kunpengzi was going to fight, and if he followed, he would probably be reduced to dust in no time.
"Go ahead, I'll be up there soon too."
Kunpengzi said nothing more upon hearing this. He had come here only to remind Li Dao that since Li Dao was unwilling to go, he had not extended any further invitation.
"In that case, I'll be going. Things are getting lively in the capital of Shi Kingdom."
"Since all the gods have come, we can catch them all in one fell swoop."
After Kunpengzi finished speaking, his golden wings fluttered gently, tearing open the void and disappearing from the spot with the force of wind and thunder.
Meanwhile, in the capital of the Stone Kingdom, Shi Hao's expression became somewhat complicated upon seeing the people in the sky.
A woman, identical to Yuechan, stood suspended in mid-air, but her aura was far stronger.
The one who came was none other than the Moon Goddess herself.
"Tell me where that little thief is. He stole my body; he must pay with his blood!"
Shi Hao's lips twitched slightly. He wished he knew where Li Dao was, but he didn't know where Li Dao's village was either. In the vast wilderness, if Li Dao didn't tell him, who would know?
“My dear fairy, I truly do not know where my senior brother is hiding.”
"You should go back first. I'll let you know when I find it."
The Moon Goddess's expression turned cold, and she said to Shi Hao in a chilling voice:
Are you kidding me?
After saying that, he immediately made his move, and dazzling light filled the sky. Seeing that the newcomer was hostile, Shi Hao felt a pang of bitterness in his heart.
Sensing the presence of several divine auras surging in the void, one knew that the main body of Yuechan had come prepared.
However, he no longer held back, and in an instant, divine light and magical techniques were displayed continuously in the sky.
Seeing that she couldn't defeat Shi Hao in a short time, the main body of Yuechan raised her hand, and four divine figures immediately appeared in the void.
Their purpose in coming was to obtain the precious techniques from Shi Hao, so they naturally wouldn't be polite. They all raised their hands, and their divine power tore through the void.
Upon seeing this, Shi Hao was greatly alarmed and immediately took out a freezing talisman to immobilize the person, but it could only delay them for a moment.
"Boy, stop struggling. Hand over the precious technique, and we'll give you your freedom!"
Shi Hao didn't believe a word of it, but he was satisfied with just delaying it for a moment. He sensed a familiar aura rapidly approaching.
"A minor deity from the upper realm dares to act so lawlessly in the lower realm; he truly has no regard for his own life."
Kunpengzi tore through the void and appeared above Shi Hao, the power emanating from his body pressing down on the five people, rendering them unable to move.
"You are an immortal being!" A deity recognized the person and exclaimed in great shock, a chill running from the tailbone straight to the top of the head.
The Moon Goddess was also deeply shocked. In the Upper Realm, immortal beings were synonymous with evil and tyranny, yet they actually appeared before her eyes in such a real way.
A chill ran through her heart, but she knew that the people who had come down to the mortal realm were not her family; there were others in the shadows. Even when facing immortal beings, she still had some confidence.
Li Dao didn't understand what Kunpengzi meant, and he didn't pay any more attention to it. Instead, he returned to his secluded cultivation place.
This miraculous enlightenment brought him many insights that need to be carefully analyzed.
He sat cross-legged on the large blue stone in the center of the medicinal soil. The ordinary blue stone beneath him had become quite different after being nourished by the spiritual medicine and its essence.
The moment he sat down, his mind immediately calmed down, and the divine power within his body surged like a raging sea, which was quite terrifying.
On that very day, a towering figure surrounded by chaotic energy appeared in one region after another in the vast sky.
Li Dao slowly opened his eyes, sensing the changes in the laws of heaven and earth, and understood in his heart.
"This is the beginning of the deification process."
"After that, there were no gods in the lower realm, so things were peaceful for quite some time."
Kunpengzi's Dharma form was terrifyingly powerful. With a wave of his hand, chaotic energy surged, and he immediately grasped several figures in his hand, which were clearly the true forms of gods.
He put it directly into his mouth and refined it into the most fundamental Yin and Yang energies. Upon seeing this, all the cultivators were immediately in an uproar.
Feeding on gods is truly horrifying.
The mortal realm trembled violently that day, and all directions were astonished.
Seeing the enormous Dharma image in the sky, Li Dao simply opened his mouth and gently inhaled, swallowing countless deities into his mouth—a truly terrifying sight.
A low hill rises, and an ancient temple sits there, where the sound of bronze bells rings continuously, the chanting of sutras never ceases, and auspicious clouds soar into the sky.
On that high platform sat a deity, enjoying the incense offerings. This place was far from the Western religion, but then a golden hand tore through the void.
The creatures hiding there were eventually found.
As the giant hand came together, the golden light emanating from the ancient Buddha exploded, accompanied by an unwilling roar. Only one relic remained in the giant hand and fell into the mouth of the Buddha image.
The great sects of the upper realm were also shocked and terrified, and sent their cultivators to the lower realm to extinguish their life lamps one by one, causing widespread panic.
"What happened in the lower realm? All the cultivators we sent there have died!"
"Quickly, quickly, go tell the leader!"
Chapter 267 The Lower Realm of God
Li Dao slowly stood up and saw that the enormous Dharma form of Kunpengzi was hunting gods everywhere, and the gods fled like weeds wherever it went.
The void trembled violently, and the world was plunged into darkness. Many cultivators, upon seeing the towering Dharma image, were reminded of the scene when the great calamity had struck.
However, unlike before, this great calamity is aimed at the gods of the upper realm; it is a calamity for those high and mighty gods.
"Cause and effect are cyclical, and retribution is inevitable," a cultivator murmured.
Watching the gods being slaughtered like pigs and dogs, I felt an indescribable sense of pleasure.
Boom!
Above the nine heavens, countless magical powers and divine abilities were unleashed, representing the struggles of the gods. However, in the hands of Kunpengzi, all these struggles were in vain.
The rumbling sound in the heavens continued for a long time. In the past few days, Kunpengzi traveled alone through the eight regions. He was like a god or demon who created the heavens and earth. Wherever he went, gods and spirits were annihilated. He was omnipotent.
Wherever divine presence is felt, one can see that towering, majestic image of the deity.
When the cultivators of the great sects saw their divine ancestors being crushed like ants, they all knelt down and prayed to the heavens, trying to communicate with the upper realm and ask for divine punishment to befall Kunpengzi.
But there was no response. The giants from the upper realm had already left the lower realm as the primordial gate had gone far away.
The worst fears of many great sects have come true: the lower realm will henceforth be the domain of immortal beings, and the connection between heaven and earth will be severed, making it difficult for people from the upper realm to descend to the lower realm easily.
Those great sects could only watch helplessly as their mountain gates were breached and Kunpengzi departed into the distance.
Several days later, the enormous body returned to the sky above the capital of the Stone Kingdom once again. The killing intent emanating from the huge Dharma image immediately forced back the many forces hiding in the shadows.
Kunpeng shrunk his size and came to Shi Hao's side, his gaze seemingly able to pierce through layers of space as he said:
"The giants of the upper realm have all left. I need to stay in the lower realm for a few more days. Do you want to leave with me?"
Without even thinking, Shi Hao refused:
"The Goddess Liu said that there is still a tribulation to be conferred as gods that has not been completed, so I cannot leave yet."
"The millions of lives in the Kingdom of Stone still need me."
Kunpengzi nodded, knowing the burden on Shi Hao's shoulders, and said with a light laugh:
"Since that's the case, I won't say any more. I can't stay in this realm any longer, otherwise those guys from the upper realm will force me down!"
Shi Hao nodded in deep agreement. With Kunpengzi's divine power, and him guarding the lower realm, those sect leaders wouldn't dare to come down.
However, some people might not want him to remain in the lower realm forever. If pushed too far, they might force him to descend, which could shatter the entire lower realm.
In the following days, Kunpengzi traveled to many places, all of which had passages to the upper realm.
The phrase "severing the connection between heaven and earth" means that people from the upper realm cannot descend, but beings from the lower realm can ascend through the passages. However, at this time, most of those passages have been sealed off by Kunpengzi.
Although the rules of heaven and earth cannot be reversed and the seal will be lifted soon, for now, heaven and earth are truly cut off.
Some powerful figures attempted to attack but failed and were instead devoured by Kunpengzi. For a time, many experts hid in fear, hoping that Kunpengzi would leave quickly.
