"At the end of the day, it's still a struggle for the Great Path … but it's also the same as in the previous life. Now that you've turned to Samsara, you should understand that such a struggle is unavoidable.
But now, we don't have much to do with each other, and there's no longer a struggle for the Great Path. Why not let go of our enmity?
I can help you reach the pinnacle of the Samsara Law and become one of the Seven Masters. What do you think? "Gu Huejin sighed and tried to persuade him.
"To you, it's just an old matter of Samsara, and you don't even remember it.
But to me, it's a painful experience that's deeply imprinted in my bones. It can't be removed no matter how hard I try.
Moreover, the enmity between the Heavenly Court and the Samsara Temple is no longer just between you and me. It's been mixed with the enmity of countless others.
This karma can't be severed. "The Samsara Temple Master shook his head and said.
"Then what do you plan to do, Temple Master?" Gu Huejin seemed to have expected the Samsara Temple Master's answer and asked unhurriedly.
"Only when you and I make a clean break and one of us disappears from this world can we truly be at peace." The Samsara Temple Master looked straight at him and said word by word.
"Although we've been fighting each other in the past, I've always treated you as a confidant.
Because many of your methods have surprised me, I've always treated you as a kindred spirit. But now, it seems that I was wrong.
You're too narrow-minded after all, "Gu Huejin said slowly, a look of disappointment on his face.
The Samsara Temple Master just looked at Gu Huejin silently, as if waiting for him to continue.
"The death of your Taoist companion, the struggle between you and me, and even the lives and deaths of countless cultivators of the Samsara Temple and the Heavenly Court, are just the disturbances of the Heavenly Way.
Have you ever thought of something above the Heavenly Dao, something even higher than it? "
Gu Huejin flicked his sleeves, his robes fluttering in the wind. His domineering attitude was immediately apparent.
These words were said with great vigor, and anyone who heard them would be filled with admiration.
"Fight against the Heavenly Way?
You are the Master of the Time Law, the leader of the Seven Lords, and already stand at the top of the billions of cultivators in the world. Are you still not satisfied? "the Samsara Temple Master said with a smile.
"It's not strange that you don't understand me. After all, you're not a true Daofather, and you can't feel the suffocating pressure of the Dao of the Heavens. That feeling really makes one … want to punch a hole through it." Gu Ruojin pondered for a moment, then clenched his fist.
Everyone was startled when they heard this. They had never heard Gu or Jin speak like this before. At the same time, they felt that the Gu or Jin today was different, very different.
"The strong have no rules?
Haha … have you finally revealed your ambition?
It's a pity that I can't wait for you to win against Heaven. Of course, you can't wait either. "The Samsara Temple Master laughed wildly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred!
The void on both sides of the Jade Lake suddenly vibrated violently, and countless silver ripples appeared out of nowhere, stirring the void like boiling water.
The entire Jade Lake had long been enveloped by the powerful restrictive spells set up by the Daofathers of the Heavenly Court. At this moment, all kinds of powerful lights emerged and clashed fiercely with the silver ripples.
The silver ripples were so powerful that the restrictive spells around the Jade Lake were actually at a disadvantage.
Waves of thunderous force penetrated into the Jade Lake, and some guests at the edge of the lake were sent flying. Those with weaker cultivations were seriously injured, and screams filled the air.
At this moment, white mist flashed on both sides of the Jade Lake, and a large white cloud appeared out of nowhere, blocking the silver ripples.
The boiling silver ripples were immediately blocked. The monstrous force poured into the cloud, but it was like a clay ox entering the sea, and had no effect at all.
A white shadow flashed over the Jade Lake, and Dao Ancestor Baiyun appeared.
The seriously injured cultivators who had escaped death hurriedly flew toward the center of the Jade Lake. The scene was chaotic.
Beside the Clarity Lake, Li Yuanjiu and the other Daofathers saw this scene, and their expressions changed slightly. They all looked at Gu or Jin and the Samsara Temple Master.
Gu or Jin sat on the dais, his expression completely unmoved, as though he had no interest in what was happening in front of him.
The Samsara Temple Master was silent as well, as though everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Seeing this, Li Yuanjiu and Daofather Chi Rong's gazes flickered. No one knew what they were thinking.
Chen Ruyan pursed her lips, revealing a hint of a smile.
The Daofather had closed his eyes, but he was like an old monk in meditation, and didn't react at all.
When the other Daofathers saw the look on Gu or Jin's face, they all had different expressions on their faces. Some looked puzzled, some frowned, some watched, and some quietly retreated.
Dao Ancestor Baiyun's eyes flashed, but he didn't hesitate. He pointed out with a finger.
Countless white clouds appeared out of thin air, blotting out the skies and covering the earth as they descended upon the silver ripples.
The various restrictive spells nearby immediately began to glow brightly as well, working in concert with the white clouds summoned by Dao Ancestor Baiyun and viciously suppressing the silver ripples.
However, the silver ripples suddenly began to glow even brighter. Two waves of mountain-toppling, sea-draining, but incomparably sharp power surged out and tore at the silver ripples.
A ripping sound rang out.
The white clouds on either side of the Jade Lake were torn apart, and the restrictive spells only paused for a brief moment before they were destroyed as easily as if they were dried twigs.
In midair, Dao Ancestor Baiyun's body shook violently, as though he had been struck by lightning. He was forced back more than ten steps before he was able to stabilize himself.
After making a fool of himself in front of everyone, Dao Ancestor Baiyun's face turned dark purple. After stabilizing himself, he prepared to attack again.
Silver light flashed once more on either side of the Jade Lake. The skies split open, and two spatial tunnels appeared, both dark and bottomless.
Countless figures flew out from the spatial tunnels, landing on either side of the Jade Lake. There was no telling how many of them there were, but they were a dense mass of people, their banners fluttering in the wind.
The people on the left side of the Jade Lake were all dressed in violet-black robes, and their bodies emanated waves of demonic energy. This was the army of the Demon Realm.
The leader of the army was a middle-aged man with thin eyebrows and a square face. He looked like a refined scholar, but his expression was extremely dignified. It was Fiendlord Stonehollow Fish.
Stonehollow Fish was currently dressed in a set of violet armor covered with black patterns, and a blood-red cape fluttered on his back. He emanated a boundless, majestic aura.
There were four people standing next to him.
On his left was a man and a woman. The man had a head of long, yellow hair that resembled straw, and his body was extremely emaciated. He looked like an emaciated corpse.
The woman was quite beautiful, with a slender waist and voluptuous buttocks. Every single movement she made emanated a demonic aura. She was like a blooming flower of evil, striking fear in the hearts of those who saw her.
There were two people standing to Stonehollow Fish's right as well. One of them was a woman in a white dress. She was tall, two heads taller than even the Fiendlord. She was extremely fat, and her eyes were squeezed into slits by the fat on her face. Her neck was filled with layers of fat as well. She stood there like a mountain of flesh.
The other person was a yellow-robed man. He looked to be in his twenties, and he had an ordinary black longsword hanging from his waist. His appearance was extremely ordinary as well, but his eyes were extremely empty and lifeless. There was no light in them at all.
If one had to use a single word to describe this person's eyes, the most appropriate word would be 'death'.
All four of them emanated unfathomable auras. They were all Daofathers.
There were forty to fifty people standing behind the Fiendlord and the others. All of them had deep and profound auras, and they were all at the Golden Immortal Realm.
The Third Prince, Shi Pokong, and the Fifth Princess, Shi Jingyan, were among them. Both of them had reached the Golden Immortal Realm, but they were only at the early-stage.
There was another Youth who wore imperial attire standing beside them. He was handsome, and his face was covered in purple qi. He looked extremely luxurious.
His aura was extremely powerful, and it was much more powerful than Shi Pokong and the Fifth Princess. He had actually reached the late-stage of the Golden Immortal Realm.
Behind them was the Devil Race's army. Their cultivations were basically at the Golden Immortal Realm. Clearly, all the elites of the Devil Territory were here.
The people on the other side of the Jade Pool had wild auras. They were the True Spirit Clans of the Wasteland World.
There were three people standing at the forefront, and two of them were Bai Ze and Yue Mian.
The third person was a bald middle-aged man with a cheeky expression on his face.
The bald middle-aged man wore an ancient bronze armor. There were no spiritual inscriptions or patterns on it, and it seemed like an ordinary armor of the mortal world.
However, when the bald man wore the armor, he gave off a domineering aura. He was not inferior to Bai Ze and Yue Mian at all.
There were thirty to forty Grand Immortal Realm cultivators standing behind the three of them. The leaders of the eight clans of the Wasteland World, Liqima, Little White, Liu Le 'er, Hu San, and the others were all among them.
The Wasteland Army behind them was also the main force of the various clans of the Wasteland World.
Both parties immediately surrounded the Jade Pool. The densely packed army of the Monster Race and Demon Race surrounded the entire Jade Pool.
…
Meanwhile.
In the unknown world, in the Grand Formation of Ten Thousand Immortals.
Han Li's sleeves fluttered in the wind. As he spread his sleeves, golden radiance surged out of his sleeves. 72 Green Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords shot out like two golden dragons and shot straight at the four figures that had just appeared.
Wherever the golden lightning went, the void shook and the lightning ripples that were tens of thousands of feet wide were stirred up.
Among the four of them, the person at the front leaped in the void like a ferocious tiger. He blocked in front of the other three, put his palms together and charged forward.
His palms that were put together were like a sharp sword that split the void to the left and right. Instantly, golden radiance surged and a huge mountain that was condensed from golden radiance appeared. Although it did not have the physical form of a mountain, it had the aura of a mountain.
A huge mountain that seemed to be condensed from golden radiance appeared in front of them. The two golden dragons crashed onto the golden mountain but were unable to penetrate through it. Instead, they created two huge holes on both sides of the mountain and slid to the sides.
After the golden dragons missed their target, they flew into the sky and split into 72 Sword Spirit Children that were surrounded by golden lightning. They floated in the surrounding void.
The children crossed their arms and frowned as they looked at the four people in the middle. They did not seem to be in a hurry to attack or set up the formation.
"It's my honor to have the four Dao Ancestors here at the same time." Han Li placed his hands behind his back and walked in the void.
