Name: Chan Xin

  Race: Six-winged Golden Cicada

  Gender: Male

  Cultivation Base: Level 12 True Immortal

  Background: One of the Buddhist from the Heavenly Realm’s Spiritual Mountain.

  Relationship: 0

  Innate Talent: Great Overarching

  Status: In the maple forest at the foot of Spiritual Mountain, a golden cicada which was mutated with six wings, flapped its wings and chirped around, resounding through the entire Spiritual Mountain. An elder Buddha who was preaching, heard the cicada’s chirping and smiled. He said: The Cicada is a Zen, with a mind of wisdom that will startle the world one day, becoming an Arhat Buddha in the future. He will be named Chan Xin.

  Transforming into human figure in a year, becoming an immortal in 10 years and stepping onto the True Immortal Realm in 100 years, his art of meditation were unmatched by the younger generations; his Dharma-protecting special abilities were overwhelming among other monks and was named by the various living beings of the Spiritual Mountain as the Holy Buddha.

  Shocked to find out that an old Buddha was laying out an encounter in the mortal world, who took the opportunity to communicate with the dharma of the mortal world when the tides of the voids were at its weakest and lead the supreme Buddha energy to form the cross dimensional gateway.

  Heard that there are people tempering Buddha soil over in the mortal world which will evoke an unyielding Buddha array formation. By refining the blood essence of countless living beings, a Buddha Embryo can be formed. Integrating with the laws of the human world, evolving supreme special ability allows the body to withstand the descension of a True Immortal, traveling freely in the world.

  Chan Xin was pleasantly surprised and said that he admires the mortal world, asking for an opportunity to look for his encounters in the mortal world. The old Buddha readily agreed and said, “The Heavenly Realm is located at the highest point among all of the worlds. Opening a gateway towards the mortal world is hard, and it is even more difficult for an immortal to descend. The price to descend is too high, otherwise no one would wait until now. If it was a middle immortal chiliocosm or a small immortal chiliocosm it would have been relatively easier.”


  Now that the Great Heavenly Venerate is setting up the Zhou Tianxingdou Great Formation, it will be even more difficult for the Buddha to descend into the mortal world in the future. Fortunately it is now still in the setting up phase.

  Also heard the old Buddha’s saying, “There is a small devil trying to scheme on the encounters of this mortal world. Initially hoped that once the other party captures it, our side can directly come to suppress the abyss. It would have saved a lot of trouble, but alas the other party failed. There was also an immortal from a middle immortal chiliocosm that tried their hands on the mortal world but also ended up failing. The two of these parties weren’t reconciled from the defeat and continued to plan on capturing the mortal world. Haha! Such little devil, such a feeble middle immortal chiliocosm. The two are merely circus monkeys dancing on the stage.

  Also heard the old Buddha continued, “There are a few other forces who are scheming the mortal world. Kill if you want, destroy if you want, just do whatever you want.

  Upon reaching the human world and saw the great mountains and rivers of the world, his heart was in euphoria thinking, This world will be my playtoy. Haha, the Spiritual Mountain is too miserable and isn’t as free as the world here. Heard that humans are delicious! I must have a taste.’ ‘As for the great encounters? There’s no rush! No rush at all. I’ll first eat to my heart’s content, play to my heart’s content, destroy this human world as I go along and then get my hands on the great encounters.

  0

  Upon reading this, Jiang Ming’s heart sank and his killing intent surged exponentially.

  Chan Xin from the Heavenly Realm? At the peak of worlds?

  It was apparent that Chan Xin’s world was far beyond the middle immortal chiliocosm. Jiang Ming also realized something important, which was that descending from Heavenly Realm into the mortal world was much more difficult compared to the other realms such as the middle immortal chiliocosm.

  ‘How on earth does this great Dao work? There’s even a Great Heavenly Venerate. Could it be equivalent to the Jade Emperor? Setting up the great array formation was really aimed at the orders of the worlds?’


  Various thoughts crossed Jiang Ming’s mind as the killing intent in his heart gradually boiled.

  It was especially the case when he read about evoking a great Buddha Formation array and refining the essence of countless living beings.

  Such a simple sentence yet it was referring to the millions of lives in the world, many of those were in the Primal Spirit Realm, Paradis Realm and even the Extreme Path Realm.

  What if the commoners were sacrificed instead? Ten billion of them will probably not even be enough.

  Jiang Ming finally understood fully the real purpose of Western Region pretending to be defeated in the beginning. Their real intention was to purify the devils of five devil sects, and sacrificed them to welcome the arrival of their “True Buddha”.

  “Sky-defying Great Formation, what an old Buddha”


  There was a story that a Buddha observed 480 million living beings in front of him and himself with a scoop of water, muttering, “Drink!”


  Perhaps the old Buddha’s view of the world was somewhat the same.

  To him, all living beings in the mortal world were as feeble as grasses.

  This old Buddha however, regarded the Devil Kings and the Immortal Beings as somewhat a circus monkey dancing on the stage, was truly horrifying

  Jiang Ming lifted his finger.

  Linglong, who was right next to him, suddenly felt chills running down her spine yet Xi Yao didn’t feel anything. Instead, she came over to Jiang Ming and said, “Senior Liu Changkong from Tianyuan School sent over a message, saying that many Sacred Lands have opened up cross dimensional gateways and there are a lot of immortals that descended. They also said that these immortals are tempering the place into immortal lands to form immortal domains. Just like the previous Golden Heavenly Path, these will be able to lead the real immortals over and roam our world.”


  Such info was a way of the other party showing their good will towards the expert behind Linglong.

  Jiang Ming paused and looked around in all the directions again as his face flashed a smile of sarcasm. He looked at Xi Yao and said, “Tell your Master, your relatives that are in your sect. Ask them to quickly leave the place.”


  “This…” Xi Yao’s face turned pale as her body swayed. She grabbed Jiang Ming’s arm forcefully, “Brother Jiang…Brother Jiang, must it be this way?”


  “A True Buddha has descended in the Western Region, and guess how he descended?” Jiang Ming smiled a little yet there wasn’t a hint of warmth in his smile, as he continued “Sacrificing the purified devil experts and also millions of devout believers, where all of them had had results in their cultivations.”


  Upon hearing this, Xi Yao’s pupil shrank, and her face was filled with shock and terror.

  Jiang Ming continued explaining: “While planning on getting his hands on this world’s great encounters, the True Buddha is prepared to devour humans and destroy this mortal world. As for those immortals that had descended in the Sacred Lands, hehe….”


  “How can this happen?” Xi Yao was dumbfounded by the news, and then smiled bitterly, “I don’t have the right to persuade you, but can you handle this?”


  Jiang Ming smiled and this time, his smile had more warmth in it.

  He looked over to Linglong, “Girl, have I been lying too low, allowing these people to invade, others to conspire against us, and now even people who are wanting to destroy this world of ours. Haha! A few immortals that had descended in several Sacred Lands even planned to completely refine our world or decimate our world just to land their hands on the great encounters.”


  “To hell with that!” Jiang Ming cursed angrily, “Although I’ve only lived on a mountain, I still have this piece of sky above my head and my feet firmly on this ground. How can I allow these people to do our world harm! The Sacred Lands have been arrogant, enjoying the worships of millions of people for hundreds of millions of years. In the end, they have forgotten about their roots. If that’s the case, I shall just destroy all of them, and cut off their connection to the higher realms. Let this world remain as it is!”


  “Xi Yao, for your sake, I will deal with Riyue Sect last, but you don’t have much time.”


  Jiang Ming soared into the air, still within the range of the Saint Province Dao Square. He shrouded himself and isolated all prying eyes from the outside world.

  Linglong on the other hand stayed silent.

  She knew that this time, her Senior Brother was angry… Really angry…


  Unfortunately, she was unable to leave the Chuyang Peak, hence there’s nothing else she could do. Otherwise, she would not let her Senior Brother to be the one getting his hands dirty. She also soared up into the air, arriving next to Jiang Ming as she hugged onto his arms and accompanied him quietly.

  Xi Yao was in great hurry as she continued to send messages back to her sect.

  Back in Riyue Sect…


  Upon receiving the news from Xi Yao, Xi Yao’s Master immediately went to find their Sect Master without any hesitation.

  “Holy Lord, Xi Yao sent over a message again. Her words were sharp and urgent, asking us to ignore those immortals and leave the sect immediately. Otherwise, there will be a chance of our sect’s annihilation. No, what she said was the sect will surely be annihilated, cutting off chances of inheritance. From what I know about Xi Yao’s temperament, she currently has no confidence at all in us or the other Sacred Lands!”


  They knew Xi Yao was in Jiuyang Sect all the while and was of no urge to hurry her back to the sect, because there was a peerless figure that could overwhelm the world there.

  In their view, it would be good if they could befriend that person.

  “It’s probably that person who found out about it I guess.” Riyue Sect’s Sect Master smiled and shook her head, “Anyway, he is overestimating himself in his effort trying to annihilate us. Now that the great encounter has been initiated, countless immortal worlds have been opened and boundless immortals have descended into the world, who can stop this overwhelming force? Those who oppose it will surely die. After all, Xi Yao is still a junior with insufficient experiences and a limited vision of how the world truly is.”


  “But… but, Sect Master! The person behind Linglong is a terrifyingly powerful existence of mysterious background yet we still don’t even know his identity. What if, I mean, what if. Don’t forget about the devils over in the Northern Region a few years ago and also what happened to the Golden Heavenly Path.”


  “This…” the Holy Lord frowned, pondered for a moment and said, “The possibility is minute and even if it’s possible, it cannot be stopped and we are even less likely to leave. After all, those above us are our backbones, places that we see as our final destination. Elder Liu, just in case anything happens, you can lead your branch and a few of our disciples to leave this place. Let it be if nothing happens, but if there’s a risk of something happening, consider this as the inheritance of our legacy.”


  “Holy Lord, let’s leave together!”


  “Everyone can go but I can’t. This is actually a great encounter for me! If I missed it, I will regret it for the rest of my life!”


  Upon hearing his answer, Elder Liu sighed softly.

  After a quick discussion, she left the place hurriedly.

  On top of Chuyang Peak, Jiang Ming raised his arms once again, lifted his index finger as a small flicker of light started to condense on his fingertips.

  Linglong could see clearly that it was the fusion of various mortal laws. To the Immortals, the mortal laws were insignificant, but once they were integrated and merged into one, it would turn into a blinding luminance that shone upon the entire world.
