Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons-Chapter 1430 - 830: The Palace Feels Too Empty

The Nine Great Ancestor Gods represent the Five Elements of heaven and earth, the life and death of Yin and Yang.

They are the foundation of the world’s operation.

For the two sects, these nine Ancestor Gods are actually quite troublesome.

Even with the transcendence of both Yuqing and Present Buddha, whose Boundary exceeds the Ancestor Gods, if they were to really act against them and cause any harm, the heavens and earth would be thrown into turmoil.

These nine veins are indispensable.

If fire is missing, the Five Elements are incomplete; without extinction, chaos ensues; as for Yin and Yang, there must not be the slightest mistake.

The two sects only wish to replace the status of the True God Sect, returning these Ancestor Gods to their rightful place without destroying the heavens and earth.

Since it is the manifestation of Heavenly Law, they should obediently turn into dead things controlled by the Immortal Court, rather than wandering the Human World as Spirits, dictating the way of the world.

Since the transcendence of the two sect leaders, their thoughts have always been on this matter.

After ages of subtle influence, coupled with the nine Ancestor Gods’ fondness for slumber, they have finally made considerable progress; most Ancestor Gods, once asleep, did not wake up again.

The cultivation of the two transcendental strongmen is like an invisible hand, gently lulling them into an endless dreamland, only one away from achieving perfection.

Who would have thought that some trivial matters in the Southern Continent would suddenly alert those True Gods still active in the world, who, through painstaking efforts, awakened the last Ancestor God who was about to fall into eternal sleep.

Upon this thought, Present Buddha couldn’t help but glance at the Future Buddha with a face full of helplessness.

It’s hard to say that this matter has nothing to do with the other party.

However, this trouble is not too serious; after all, the Fire Ancestor God hasn’t noticed anything unusual, merely intending to stand up for the True God Sect. Giving it enough face and coaxing it back should suffice.

"Then this old monk will desist for now."

Present Buddha withdrew his gaze; he now needs to extract himself to capture the Demon Emperor who disturbs the heavens and earth, originally suppressed by the joint effort of both sect leaders, the eight Ancestor Gods now naturally handed over to the Yuqing Sect Master.

This process must not allow the slightest carelessness.

If these Ancestor Gods are alarmed, causing them to perceive the intentions of the two sects, they will undoubtedly fight back desperately.

If forcibly suppressed again and accidentally injure one or two... or even shatter one of the nine veins, the aftermath would be exponentially more severe than that minor Demon Emperor.

"Rest assured, Buddha, we will assist the senior brother."

Shangqing and Taiqing, the two sect leaders, slightly raised their palms, focusing their Divine Souls into the giant beast of Heavenly Dao, carefully sensing the nine thickest veins.

If the others of the Second Rank are ephemera, then the Three Pure Ones can be considered the eyes of Heavenly Dao, and the Past, Present, and Future Buddhas together form its ears, collectively deceiving Heavenly Dao’s sight and hearing.

These nine Ancestor Gods are the bones supporting this beast’s body.

The body must follow where the eyes and ears move, switching it around is a reversal of the heavenly order!

"Come then."

The transition requires a bit of time; Present Buddha’s expression became somewhat more solemn. He carefully retracted his Divine Soul from the four veins he was responsible for suppressing, readying them for the Sanqing Sect Leader to take over.

"..."

Future Buddha watched all this silently.

The other is the transcendence of this era, wielding a power even this sect leader cannot reach.

At this moment, the more serious Present Buddha’s expression, the more cautious his actions, indicating his determination to resolve all issues in one fell swoop.

Shen Yi, when knowing this, would feel either joy or terror.

Being a First Rank Emperor, to receive such attention from a transcendental Buddha also implies that the chance of survival for the other has diminished to the utmost.

"As for the one still outside..."

Present Buddha suddenly opened his eyes. Before setting off himself, the Ancestor God now walking the world, if not returned to slumber, at least must be controlled to prevent it from returning to awaken the other Ancestor Gods, disrupting this transition.

"Hasn’t it always been looking for me? Leave it to me."

Future Buddha leisurely stood up, a faintly chilling smile on his face.

He knows better than anyone that compared to Shen Yi, the Ancestor God is a bigger problem; that is to say, if the nine are not properly settled, Present Buddha wouldn’t dare to proceed to the Divine Dynasty with ease.

Perhaps this is the last bit of time he can buy for that variable.

Yet, one doesn’t know what use this little time would be.

"..."

However, not only Present Buddha, but even the other sect leaders present gave him a slightly peculiar glance, not responding, as if they hadn’t heard him at all.

Everyone knows each other’s thoughts.

The reason no one mentioned it was to save a little face for this future Buddha.

In the hearts of many sect leaders, this person and Houtu Huangdi Qi are essentially the same, both Immortal Buddhas standing on the wrong side.

On usual days, minor mischiefs and secretive actions are overlooked for the other’s amusement, but significant matters simply cannot be entrusted to him.

"Ahem."

Future Buddha stood somewhat awkwardly on the Lotus Platform, just about to explain further, but was interrupted by Present Buddha.

"Then this matter is entrusted to the Past Buddha, carry it out swiftly with the remaining True Buddhas."
