Secret Buyer

Chapter 599 - 358:

The head of the Eastern Emperor continued:

"It can’t exactly be called an accident; it was during Fuli’s attempt that they created the Great Divine Technique of , manifesting the Three Pristine Ones to assist them in breaking through to the ultimate level."

As they spoke,

The head of the Eastern Emperor clicked their tongue:

"But how could the Three Pristine Ones willingly be mere incarnations of Fuli? The specific process is unknown, but the result was that Fuli disappeared from then on, and the Three Pristine Ones became the new Supremes."

Zhang Fusheng was bewildered:

"What about the Supremes that came later?"

The Eastern Emperor laughed and said:

"Initially, the Three Pristine Ones did not get along, engaging in fierce battles that nearly drove them to madness. Later, when they realized that they couldn’t defeat each other, they each supported the birth of a Supreme."

"That would be the Past Majestic Buddha, the Present Tathagata Buddha, and the Future Maitreya Buddha."

"Later on, the Three Buddhas also competed with the Three Pristine Ones. To surpass and suppress each other, they continued to support new Supremes..."

"Thus, the cycle continued, leading to what you see today."

Zhang Fusheng realized:

"Isn’t this becoming a never-ending cycle? The more they compete, the more Supremes are born."

"And the more Supremes there are, the fiercer the competition becomes..."

The head of the Eastern Emperor acknowledged:

"That’s indeed the case, but we also noticed something odd: as the number of Supremes increases, their individual powers diminish."

"After all, though the myriad worlds are said to be infinite and boundless, the original heavens are immeasurable and endless, how could they possibly sustain so many Supremes?"

The head of the Eastern Emperor sneered:

"The current game and struggle have turned into figuring out how to truly eliminate other Supremes, causing them to ."

Upon hearing the term for the second time, Zhang Fusheng more or less understood its meaning.

The literal implication.

To fully integrate with the Dao, losing the self, truly ceasing to exist.

He was lost in thought for a long time before asking the final question:

"My second inquiry, however, seeks to ask Fellow Daoist Donghuang, was this last great chaos, the end of the old world, initiated by Sun Wukong?"

"However, I want to know if it all started with Sun Wukong from the very beginning?"

The Eastern Emperor was stunned:

"Of course not, the calamity at the end of the old world has innumerable versions. Only this final version, only today’s history, was initiated by that troublesome monkey."

"Why does Fellow Daoist Fusheng suddenly ask this?"

Zhang Fusheng shook his head with a smile, not answering, his gaze turning profound.

He confirmed it.

His suspicion was true.

In that sense...could the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Yang Erlang, and the all be considered ’kindred spirits’?

Yes, more accurately, they are people of the same path.

Sun Monkey probably intends to break the shackles of the Supremes, while Tai Shang Laojun seemingly wishes to detach from Taiqing,

but as for Yang Erlang, the specific reason remains unclear.

Zhang Fusheng shook his head,

continued to converse with the Eastern Emperor for a while, asking about the ,

and after receiving answers one by one, he cupped his hands in farewell.

Once Zhang Fusheng’s figure disappeared from the Great Chaos, leaving the Chaos Bell.

The head of the Eastern Emperor was suspended above the chaos,

suddenly sighed deeply.

"Intrigue and deception..."

They remarked with a complex meaning.

.........

The following days were rather uneventful.

Ruan Yutu and the Six Desires Celestial Maiden, after meeting those visitors and several divine families, and stating their requirements, returned to the Kong Family estate.

According to the two, the resources of several divine families would be gradually sent to the Celestial Capital.

The Celestial Capital regained its tranquility, with the Ten Attention Families and other families who came to the Celestial Capital preparing for the competition,

while Zhang Fusheng stayed in the Kong Family estate, except for meeting visitors every day,

he silently studied the .

With a deeper understanding of the Twelve Reverse Forging Techniques,

he gained greater clarity on the Primordial Path and the Nine Netherworld Path—the foundation of this technique bears the imprints of Zhu Jiuyin and the Emperor Houtu Earth Deity,

both of whom have successively been Masters of the Nine Netherworld.

The seventh day.

"It’s done."

Zhang Fusheng exhaled, a smile blooming on his face.

Major success.

The Celestial Emperor Celestial Position, already fused with himself, forged the .

Thus, the ’foundation’ of the Twelve Reverse Forging Techniques was fully established.

He calculated cause and effect, silently sensing for a moment,

his eyes gleaming:

"The Sutra Taker is about to reach the location of the Pantheon...the Five Finger Mountain."

At the latest, tomorrow, the Five Finger Mountain will open, the Pope of the Pantheon will be freed, and his ’transaction’ with the Pantheon will be completely finished,

By then, not only can he gain a Great Divine Power User as a ’subordinate’ for a hundred years,

but the cultivation required to transcend to the realm of a Great Divine Power User can also be fully assembled in one go!

In other words,

at the latest tomorrow, it will be the time when he attains the Bodhisattva and True Monarch Fruit Position.

Fuli Great True Man will become True Monarch Fulai.

As his thoughts churned, Zhang Fusheng’s ears slightly twitched, hearing Cui Liuduo conversing with the clan elder by the lakeside of the estate.

"Why hasn’t the ancestor arrived yet? They were supposed to reach here a few days ago..."

"It seems that something unexpected happened, and it’s hard to know for certain. The ancestor’s last transmission was six days ago, saying they were bringing three people with them to the Celestial Capital."

Paused, the clan elder smiled wryly:

"In that final transmission, the ancestor also mentioned discovering a remarkable territory, intending to explore a little. This exploration has led to six days without any news..."

Cui Liuduo frowned and asked:

"Did the ancestor mention where?"

"Yes, something called...Two Realms Mountain?"

Zhang Fusheng listened casually to their conversation, initially not paying much attention. When he heard Two Realms Mountain, he was slightly surprised.

Two Realms Mountain...

If I remember correctly, in mythological stories, this refers to the , or perhaps the .
