Book 18, Pure Yang, Chapter 53 – Cleaving Heaven and Earth
“Hreen could sense that he had becooleolem contained
“The aura of that perfect Heaven Punisher is quite strong as well It lives up to its reputation as a grand formation formed from 9000 Celestial Immortals and 810,000 Loose Immortals The aura alone is no weaker than the aura of reen, however, wasn’t worried in the slightest In fact, he was rather disdainful “It’s all show and no substance What’s the use of just having an aura of power? Although it is very strong, taking control over all that power is harder than ascending to the heavens! Even the simplest version of the Heaven Punisher is difficult for many Empyrean Gods and True Immortals to command, much less the perfect version”
The Heaven Punishers could be divided into three tiers
The simplest version had 1000 Celestial Immortals and 100,000 Loose Immortals
The expert version had 3000 Celestial Immortals and 300,000 Loose Immortals
Only when 9000 Celestial Immortals and 810,000 Loose Immortals were used, however, was the Heaven Punisher ‘perfect’, allowing it to reach an inconceivable level of power If Ning, as a Pure Yang True Ie heartforce and mastery over the soul heartforce technique…he’d be able to command at most a tenth of the Heaven Punisher’s full power Froine how truly difficult it was for one to take command over the perfect Heaven Punisher’s power
“I’m different from him!”
“I have a Daofather gole isn’t much of a threat; to the contrary, it’s the Seven Planets God, which seeerous It is formed from seven Empyrean Gods, and Redsnow has complete control over all of its power as well”
Under Evergreen’s control, the Daofather golem was extremely fast
Swish!+ Swish!+ Swish!+
Distorted light could be seen in the skies The Daofather gole upon the vast web of heaven as it charged forward, the first to attack the Criht Realm’s forces
This battle wasn’t just being watched by Daofather Cri, and Daofather Ink Bamboo In truth, more than 90 of the Daofathers of the Three Real this battle
The Celestial Realm
Mount Ling, in the western region
Lord Buddha was seated up high on his honored throne, radiating a boundless aura of light The light surrounding hi to behold, and if one looked at it carefully, one would be able to vaguely make out the colors of the Five Elearbha, Maitreya, and other ha 1
Lord Buddha, also known as Tathagata, was the highest-level Buddhist leader of the Three Realms His poas inconceivable, and the divine abilities he had devised, such as the [Vairocana Guardian Halo] and the [Buddha-Realm Within the Palm] were some of the most supreme divine abilities of the Three Realms Only Mother Nuas more powerful than him
The Buddhas seated below him were all extraordinarily formidable as well
Amitabha, for example, had created ten million clones of himself In both the Primordial Era and thethe teachings of Buddhisures of Buddhise fro; more than half of the arhats and bodhisattvas of the Three Realht by Amitabha and thus succeeded in their cultivation 2
The countless bodhisattvas and arhats thus naturally felt treratitude towards the Buddha Ast the ranks of the Buddhist Sangha He was often referred to as the ‘Teacher Buddha’, or as the ‘Welco his many adherents to his pure land of Sukhavati, the Western Paradise 3 The holy light radiating froentleness Anyone who saould feel inner peace, and they would uncontrollably wish to kneel down and listen to his teachings
“Multiple Realmwars have occurred within the Three Real theaze of Lord Tathagata pierced through the vast Void, allowing hiht Realht has done everything he can This Realreater one than the ones which have come before Welcomer, do you think they can win?”
Buddha Aether, he said, “The key issue in this battle revolves around the battle between the Daofather gole’s Heaven Punisher and Redsnow’s Seven Planets God”
The otheras well
It was only natural that they cared
It was a ed, but a Realmould have a aged in a war for kar once both sides were convinced that no further gains could be made That hen all of the o all out as well
“I wonder how reat stor to hiet how ht to an end Even he had very nearly perished before theon his [Golden Nirmana Body], he was able to survive and keep the Lord of All Things tied down
That had been a calamitous war
The ha had died in battle Fortunately, Mother Nuwa hadfor a reversal in the war!
The Celestial Realm
The Dao Palace, in the eastern regions
Daoist Three Purities was seated high up upon his throne Unlike Lord Buddha, Daoist Three Purities had a much more reserved aura And yet, when one looked at Daoist Three Purities…one would occasionally feel as though one was seeing a terrifying illusion of the destruction of the entire Three Realms
Beneath him were seated the major powers of the Daoist Path
“We are about to see a result to this Realmwar,” Daoist Three Purities said softly “Zixiu, who do you think in?”
An oldbeard as dressed in loose robes said softly, “Fifty-fifty”
This oldZhou…Zhuang Zixiu! 4
Long ago, two True Gods were born froood friends
One was Yuanshi+ Tianzun, the Exalted Celestial of Genesis The second was Xiaoyao Tianzun, the Carefree Exalted Celestial
The two had trained painstakingly, with Yuanshi+ Tianzun havingand the Heavenly Dao of Destruction Of the ten Heavenly Daos, however, the Heavenly Dao of Primordial Chaos was the most exalted of Daos The Heavenly Dao of Life was mated with the Heavenly Dao of Destruction, while the Heavenly Dao of Yin wasLast came the Five Elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth If one wanted to hts intosets of Heavenly Daos…which was incredibly hard For exahts into the Heavenly Dao of Life, then the Heavenly Dao of Life itself would interfere with your efforts to gain insights into the Heavenly Dao of Destruction, preventing you fro in it
Or, for example, the Five Elements
If one ed to an to work on water, one would suffer many interferences Thus, it was incredibly difficult to master the full set of Five Elements, the duality of Life and Destruction, or the duality of Yin and Yang
Lord Tathagata had ed to master the entire Five Elements of the Heavenly Daos, which hy he was able to becoha!
Yuanshi+ Tianzun had tre the Primordial Era, he placed a seal on his own truesoul, one which locked away histhem unless he fully mastered the Heavenly Dao of Yin He then sent himself into the Six Paths of Reincarnation and co his truesoul into the cycle of reincarnation
He was reborn multiple times On his ninth life, he was reborn as Laozi 5! In this life, he finally e in hi a Daofather At this moment, hisjoined together, his power instantly skyrocketed, resulting in hi at the very pinnacle of the Three Realu level yet
He devised a technique which allowed hi the Supre the Grand Pure One His three incarnations all had their separate strengths, and they were each very suited to their respective Heavenly Daos
Daoist Yuqing was his former, true body; known as Yuanshi+ Tianzun, it controlled the Heavenly Dao of Yang
Daoist Shangqing was known as Lingbao Tianzun, the Exalted Celestial of the Holy Treasure He controlled the Heavenly Dao of Destruction
Daoist Taiqing was the reincarnated Laozi, the master of the Heavenly Dao of Yin
When Daoist Three Purities had devised this technique to create the Three Pure Ones, his three incarnations were capable of joining together to reach an unfathomable level of power He had even been able to battle the ‘king’ of the Sea period of time
Co the truesoul to be reincarnated was incredibly dangerous For example, if in a reincarnated life he had become a Celestial Immortal, then suddenly was killed and had his soul shattered, his truesoul would’ve been sent into the River of Destiny He would’ve truly been dead, then! What he did was a dangerous ga willpower and determination, which hy he dared to act in such a way
The Carefree Exalted Celestial, however, didn’t possess that sort of determination He did, however, create an incarnation which he sent to be reborn and experience new lives In these new lives, however, he was naturally unable to gain any insights into the corresponding Heavenly Dao Still, he didn’t care about this at all, because his poas still considered one of the top five of the Daoist Path
Lu Dongbin had taken on two true teachers One was Daoist Three Purities, while the other was the Carefree Exalted Celestial
The iions within the pri’s residence or the residence of the ancient Suiren
These ancient figures, soendary recluses of the Three Realht’ve been reclusive in the past, but now that the storm had come, there was no way for theht as well
