Chapter 1456: Chapter 514: Return to the Netherworld, Wuque Lineage

He once went to the Netherworld, only to have his clone killed three times by three individuals.

But those who acted were already exposed: one was the Saint King, one was He Donghuang, and the most mysterious one was also revealed to be the former leader of the Heavenly Court, Emperor Yi.

Once the crisis hidden underwater is exposed, it is often no longer intimidating.

Now, aside from Emperor Yi, Luo Xuan has no fear for the other two, let alone the Heavenly Court.

This Primordial Monarch still harbors apprehensions, clearly indicating that besides those three, there is another hidden hand in the Netherworld!

Furthermore... has this person truly stopped caring about the Netherworld Lord’s Fruit Position?

Luo Xuan looked up, gazing at the back of Doumu Yuanjun, his expression inscrutable.

No longer concerned, yet why send this World Venerable there?

Is this a test before assuming leadership of Buddhism?

Doumu abruptly spoke from ahead: "Go and tell Wei, I do not want any mishaps in the establishment of Buddhism."

Luo Xuan lowered his head: "Yes."

...

...

Upon leaving the palace, Ji Jingqiu did not choose to leave the Heavenly Court directly, instead wandering within it.

Currently, the Heavenly Court and various parties of the Sea of Realms are in a stalemated battle across multiple fronts, with the Heavenly Court fully mobilized, and even the Investiture of the Gods has been pushed to its peak state.

Thus, as Ji Jingqiu walked in the core of the Heavenly Court, he was almost constantly facing the vast and unpredictable Dao Rhyme fluctuations!

"What terrifying Dao fluctuations!"

Both Ji Jingqiu and the three inside the Inner Universe were somber under this overwhelming Dao power.

"In terms of quality, this Dao Rhyme has surpassed the level of Transcendence; and in terms of quantity, not even a single Transcender can compare!" Moon-cutting Sword Light remarked gravely.

"The most important thing is this Divine Artifact hasn’t yet recovered to its peak." Wuzhou sighed, "It’s hard to imagine what kind of existence forged this Divine Artifact."

Hel sneered: "Didn’t Ji Jingqiu already say? That suspected Great Dao Unifier!"

Ji Jingqiu did not participate in their conversation, he was carefully sensing the presence of the Investiture of the Gods.

Invisible and intangible, yet omnipresent, seeming to encompass the entire Heavenly Court.

As the Dao Rhyme flowed, it felt as if the Dao was in heaven, harboring the truths of all things, pointing directly to the core!

Ever since entering the Heavenly Court, his Dao Power realm had been rising, faintly showing a tendency to break through the Ninth Tier of Dao Power, all due to the enhancement from the Investiture of the Gods.

As expected, this must be the growth brought on by the further awakening of the Investiture of the Gods.

And while it was so for him, Doumu’s share of the enhancement would be even greater!

After the exchange with Emperor Yi, Ji Jingqiu understood that relying on Emperor Yi to escape the Investiture of the Gods was no longer feasible.

Moreover, he had to guard against Emperor Yi taking risks to break the seal of the Bitter Sea.

From here on out, he could only rely on himself.

Leveraging his current status, Ji Jingqiu roamed various Forbidden Lands within the Heavenly Court as if they were empty, with no one daring to stop him.

Yet the secrets within these Forbidden Lands couldn’t shake the foundation of the Heavenly Court.

Ji Jingqiu was fully aware that Doumu dared to let him come and go freely, not only due to the Investiture of the Gods’ suppression but because preparations had long been made.

Lastly perceiving the Investiture of the Gods, Ji Jingqiu attempted to enter it, to meet with that presence again, but ultimately failed.

Moments later,

Ji Jingqiu left the Heavenly Court, heading straight for the Netherworld, accompanied by Zhang Tiancheng.

Upon departing from the Heavenly Court, Ji Jingqiu’s aura and Dao Power gradually diminished, returning to normal levels.

This time, Ji Jingqiu did not choose a carriage for travel, but instead immersed his true form into the Void, leaving Zhang Tiancheng far behind.

"Why does this Sea of Realms seem somewhat... murky?"

During his journey, the light was dim, and in the distance, countless stars seemed suspended.

Relying solely on himself, Ji Jingqiu crossed the Sea of Realms, using Glazed Glass Light to counter the subtle erosion of the Dao in the sea, as if standing within a great sun of clear glazed glass hue.

After traveling for a while, he paused to carefully examine the Sea of Realms ahead.

Moments later, fragments of Divine Wood drifted past him, along with remnants of various Divine Weapons, and remains of powerful figures, floating in the Vast Boundary Sea, flowing by him.

Ji Jingqiu’s expression grew serious, already guessing the source of these things, he looked into the distance.

To drift for long in the Sea of Realms, even as remnants, they would never be the remains of weaklings.

"Which battlefield is this from? It’s so intense." Ji Jingqiu breathed lightly.

The Dao shockwaves from the fall of numerous powerful figures had, in a short time, triggered the ’murkiness’ of the Sea of Realms.

"The Sea of Realms hasn’t seen a war of such intensity in a long time." Moon-cutting Sword Light said gravely, "The opening of each gate has elevated the intensity of this war to nearly an unparalleled scale, only the ancestral figures haven’t returned."

Ji Jingqiu did not hesitate further, heading toward the Netherworld.

Nearing the Netherworld.

Ji Jingqiu looked far ahead, stopped his steps, suddenly witnessing a grand and awe-inspiring sight!

"This is..." Ji Jingqiu’s expression suddenly turned grave, "Transcendence level Dao fluctuations?!"

The fluctuations guarding the Netherworld, while lacking in volume compared to the Investiture of the Gods, were of such quality that they surpassed the True Saint level!

Moreover, this Dao Aura carried a familiarity that was subtly recognizable, feeling ethereal and sacred, as if possessing a mysterious ability to transform decay into miracles.

"Hm?"

Moon-cutting Sword Light murmured,

"Isn’t this Friend Wuque’s Enlightenment Artifact? How did it end up in the Netherworld, could it be that they’ve returned?"

Considering the possibility of the main incarnation and the ancestral figures returning, Moon-cutting Sword Light became invigorated, a fleeting blaze surged in the sword light.

Should the ancestral figures return, while the Heavenly Court’s Investiture of the Gods remains unascended to its peak, it would undoubtedly be an unstoppable force, prematurely quashing the Heavenly Court in its cradle!
