Chapter 341 The Other Shore of All Beings, Higher Primordial Chaos
Chapter 341 The Other Shore of All Beings, Higher Primordial Chaos
The instant Hong Yi infinitely elevates his body and his Yang God Dharma Body emerges, all beings throughout the entire Great Thousand World, the sun and moon, the void, the past and the future, and the long river of time, "see" that majestic figure, which is even wider and more vast than the universe.
That figure remains etched in everyone's heart.
The figure was not a physical entity, yet it reflected the soul like the rules of heaven and earth, supreme, transcending the sea of suffering and surpassing the other shore.
Even the most foolish mortal, upon catching a glimpse of his figure, will instantly gain enlightenment and become a genius, destined to become the Creator.
Upon seeing it, the Martial Saint immediately comprehends the mysteries of the universe and enters the realm of the Human Immortal. Cultivators who have undergone six tribulations of lightning directly leap to the realm of the seventh or eighth tribulation, becoming creators and cultivating their primordial spirit.
The humans from the divine realm of the primordial universe had long forgotten to shout "Long live the Supreme God!" They stood frozen in place, their eyes unfocused, only extreme shock and bewilderment remaining.
The moment they saw this figure, countless planetary-level martial artists instantly cultivated into Ghost Immortals, their acupoints opened, and they achieved Human Immortal status.
Countless sounds of opening acupoints and countless vibrations of opening up small worlds appeared.
Seeing this figure is like seeing the fundamental laws and mysteries of the universe.
Seeing this figure is like glimpsing the fundamental laws of the universe. Just a wisp of fist intent or spirit is enough to break through the barriers of those domain lords and realm lords, surpassing the peak of the human immortals.
"What...what is this?!" a peak Realm Lord murmured in shock. "Is it a manifestation of the primordial will of the universe? No, that can't be—"
They exhausted their imaginations but could not comprehend the magnificence of that figure.
The strongest being in the primordial universe was the pinnacle of their understanding.
But could this figure be the strongest being in the universe?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
The form before us, which transcends time and space and is so vast that even the universe cannot contain it, would probably crush the entire primordial universe with just a wisp of its aura if it appeared in the primordial universe!
The so-called strongest beings in the universe are nothing but dust in front of this figure, not even a speck of dust.
Before the shock of humanity in the divine realm had subsided, Hong Yi's gaze had already turned to the highest point of the universe.
The Bridge to the Other Shore, which had been suppressed by the Eternal Emperor for countless ages, as if it had suppressed an entire world, a universe, and possessed the power of the first divine artifact of all time, broke free from all its constraints the moment his gaze fell upon it. It transformed into a stream of light and directly merged into his soul.
"Good! As expected of Yi!"
Faced with this irresistible force, the Longevity Emperor showed no remorse. Instead, he clapped his hands and laughed, his eyes filled with satisfaction and anticipation.
The Creation Daoist beside him nodded and smiled, his expression revealing undisguised joy. He looked at Hong Yi with admiration in his eyes: "Yi, it seems you have completely transcended the Sea of Suffering."
"We have sought the truth for eternity, leaving behind projected primordial spirits, all for the sake of the other shore. Today, we shall see how you complete the final step and liberate all beings from the sea of suffering," the Eternal Emperor declared loudly, his tone full of expectation.
Hong Yi did not answer.
With a thunderous roar, everyone felt the immense power of the Yang God's body, and Hong Yi's soul experienced a violent tremor!
Hong Yi's current realm has completely surpassed that of Yang Shen. The power of the Bridge to the Other Shore is no longer useful to him, but the spirit within it—that transcendence of everything, the idea that allows everyone in the world to cross to the other shore, to become like a dragon, and to escape the sea of suffering—resonated infinitely with him in an instant.
In an instant, the Yang God's physical body, which was more vast than the universe and more profound than the river of time, suddenly transformed into a bridge spanning heaven and earth to the other side.
The world is a sea of suffering. Cultivating the physical body is like using the body as a boat, while cultivating the soul is like swimming across the sea of suffering.
All the methods and practices in this world are for the purpose of crossing the sea of suffering and reaching the other shore.
Both the Eternal Kingdom and the Ship of Creation were created with this goal in mind.
This bridge to the other shore is accessible to all, regardless of who came first or last, whether born early or late, whether emperor or general, or commoner.
This is Hong Yi's intention, the essence of his fist. It is also the intention behind his writing of the I Ching, that everyone should be like a dragon.
At this moment, he infused his spirit into the essence of martial arts, and built an eternal bridge across the boundless sea of suffering, so that everyone could pass through. What a grand ambition this was!
At this moment, Hong Yi has reached a completely new realm that is "not the other shore, but surpasses the other shore".
All things in the world are adrift in a sea of suffering. Even those that can live as long as heaven and earth cannot escape the fate of the universe's destruction and the changing of eras.
In Hong Yi's eyes, the vast world, the primordial universe, and even the origin of the universe, the highest point overlooking time and space, along with the long river of time that runs through the past, present, and future, are all just a small puddle in the sea of suffering.
With just a flick of his finger, this puddle, the eternal blue sky, and everything from the past to the future will vanish into nothingness in an instant.
The next moment, the golden bridge across the other shore, which Hong Yi had transformed into, suddenly spanned countless times and spaces, reversing the course of time and causing the long river of time to tremble violently.
Twenty years ago, inside the Hong family mansion, at the bedside of Hong Yi's mother, Meng Bingyun.
By this time, she had lost all her Taoist arts, had been bedridden for a long time, her makeup had faded, her once full cheeks were slightly raised, and her figure was so thin that she looked as if a gust of wind could blow her over.
Even so, her eyes remained clear and bright, showing no fear of death, only an infinite longing for life and affection. In this woman's eyes, everything was beautiful, filled with tenderness and purity towards the world.
The breath of life was rapidly draining from her body, and the end of her soul being scattered and sinking into a sea of suffering was imminent.
Just as her consciousness was about to fade, Meng Bingyun suddenly saw boundless golden light pierce through the darkness, like the rising sun bursting forth from the horizon, its infinite light enveloping her entire world.
A colossal figure, spanning the universe and reaching into the future, suddenly appeared before our eyes.
The figure's outline was vaguely familiar, and the charm in his eyes and brows bore a striking resemblance to the still-childish young Hong Yi by the bedside.
"Yi'er————"
Upon seeing that figure, Meng Bingyun understood everything.
But before the words were even finished, the towering figure before them slowly vanished, replaced by a golden bridge that stretched to the heavens and the earth.
The bridge is entirely gilded, flowing with billions of pure energies. The Yi Jing (Book of Changes) engraved on the bridge flows with seven-colored light. Every word contains the ultimate principles of heaven and earth. Below the bridge are the turbulent and roaring waves of the sea of suffering, but above the bridge is a holy radiance, warm enough to melt away all the suffering in the world.
This golden bridge not only appeared before Meng Bingyun's eyes, but also spanned infinite time and space, manifesting itself before every life that was about to die.
Whether it is the vast world, the countless stars beyond the heavens, or all living beings of the past, present, and future, whether human, beast, covered in scales, or spirits of plants and trees, in the instant before their death, this bridge of liberation, the bridge of transcendence, the bridge to the other shore appears out of thin air before their eyes.
Immeasurable light, immeasurable life.
Without any guidance, the moment all life sees the Golden Bridge, its meaning is automatically understood deep within their souls.
Stepping onto this bridge allows one to wash away all the sins of a lifetime, escape the cycle of suffering, and ascend to an eternal paradise free from worries and strife, where only joy resides.
The moment the thought of climbing the bridge crossed his mind, the bridge fell right beneath Meng Bingyun.
The moment I stepped onto this bridge—
Her curled-up body suddenly became full and plump, and her pale and thin face instantly lost all its sickness. Her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, her skin was like jade, and she radiated a moonlit halo. Clouds and mist swirled around her, and pure energy rose.
The aura of death and sinking into the sea of suffering vanished, replaced by a transcendent and ethereal beauty that transcends the mundane.
The decaying spirit is infinitely elevated, the originally dissipated Taoist arts have all returned, and the jade body, nourished by the power of the Bridge to the Other Shore, has its acupoints opened one by one, connecting with heaven and earth, becoming pure and spotless, achieving a flawless body.
Immortal.
At this time, Hong Xuanji had not yet achieved the status of a human immortal.
But as soon as one steps onto this bridge, all Taoist arts and martial arts vanish, and Meng Bingyun, who was about to die, is able to become a human immortal.
Meng Bingyun gazed at the end of the bridge to the other shore, where the horizon stretched endlessly, conveying the boundless joy of the other world and cheering her escape from the sea of suffering.
Not only those from the past, but also countless beings from the future and the present have seen this golden bridge to the other shore. Even the spirits of the long-deceased Holy Emperor, and the crippled martial arts masters Hong Xuanji and Yang Pan, all saw this bridge to heaven before their eyes.
"This...this is the bridge to the other shore?!"
"If I just cross this bridge, I can reach the other side?!"
The Holy Emperor's spirits were incredulous, but the moment the thought of crossing the bridge arose, the spirits instantly appeared at the bridgehead.
The moment you step onto the golden bridge, the past, present, and future of the entire river of time are all beneath your feet. Heroic spirits materialize, their former cultivation returns, their physical bodies are reshaped, and their divine souls gather.
Boom!! Countless blazing divine lights swept across the heavens and the universe, and the holy emperors of the past and present once again ascended to the realm of Yang God!
-
In the vast world, the moment Hong Xuanji stepped onto the golden bridge, all the cultivation he had lost returned, and it surged back even further.
In an instant, he transformed into a Martial Saint, a Human Immortal, a Peak Human Immortal, his fist intent materialized, his flesh and blood evolved, and he underwent countless transformations! Not only did his former cultivation return to him, but even the realms he had not yet reached but was destined to attain in the future manifested prematurely within him!
Rumble! Rumble!! Ninety-nine deafening roars echoed throughout the universe as Hong Xuanji directly stepped into the realm of shattering the vacuum!
"Hahaha!"
Standing at the highest point of the universe, the Eternal Emperor looked upon all that was happening in the past, future, and present, and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Incredible! Incredible! I thought that guiding all living beings to the other shore was already an unprecedented merit, but I never expected that Yi Zi would have such a grand vision!"
The Creation Daoist's face was also full of joy. He nodded and said, "No matter how foolish a mortal or how weak an ant, as long as they cross the bridge to the other shore, they can all become immortals. Those with great fortune can even achieve their future goals on the spot."
"Once we reach the end of the bridge, let alone nine tribulations of lightning and countless transformations, even reaching the level of a Yang God and shattering the void, will surely be achievable!"
No wonder the Longevity Emperor was amazed by Hong Yi's spirit.
He not only wants to ferry all living beings in this world to the other shore, but also wants to revive all sentient beings who have been suffering in the sea of suffering throughout the long river of time and ferry them to the other shore!
"Such skill is beyond our comprehension. But Yi's current level of attainment is beyond our comprehension."
"Look over there." The Eternal Emperor pointed, his gaze falling on the world ring left behind by Hong Yi.
At this moment, all ten trillion beings within the ring have crossed the bridge to the other shore, standing on the bridge overlooking the universe, their faces filled with boundless awe.
The only thing that can rival such a scene is probably the sight of a world within a grain of sand, and countless cosmic crystals within a world, that one sees when one ascends to the level of a World Lord and enters the primordial origin of the universe.
The Daoist of Creation nodded and slowly said, "At this moment, the incense offerings and thoughts of countless beings have all converged on Yi Zi, infinitely elevating his power to a terrifying level."
"And he used this power to guide even more sentient beings. The faith of these trillions upon trillions of beings fed back into Hong Yi, causing his power to surge tens of thousands, hundreds of millions, or even countless times compared to before, reaching unimaginable levels!"
"Transcending the sea of suffering and reaching the other shore is already within reach," the Eternal Emperor nodded slightly.
"Let's both enter the bridge," the Creator Daoist said with a smile.
Before the words were finished, a bridge to the other side appeared before the two of them.
The two ancient giants laughed heartily and stepped onto the bridge beam.
Reaching the other shore seems so simple at this moment.
It's that simple.
I will guide all sentient beings, enabling all people under heaven to become like dragons and reach the other shore. All sentient beings can also guide me to reach the other shore.
I save all living beings, and all living beings save me in return.
Hong Yi looked down upon all things in the world. Every living being who stepped onto this bridge was as if they were connected with Hong Yi, understanding kindness, courage, integrity, compassion, the principles of heaven and earth, and the great love of the world.
He seemed to see the entire universe transformed into a paradise on the other side, where everyone lived in an eternal kingdom, a blissful world of all imaginable beauty, without suffering or sea of bitterness, where everyone was a virtuous person and everyone was like a dragon.
He no longer needs to interfere with any of this.
"Now, all that's left is to fulfill the last agreement."
Hong Yi looked at the virtual panel in his mind.
Even at this very moment, the power of all beings' vows, incense offerings, and faith has elevated his strength to an unpredictable level, enabling him to create universes as numerous as the sands of the Ganges.
Even now, Hong Yi still couldn't figure out how this panel existed.
But none of that matters anymore.
He opened the panel again.
"Hmm, Yi Zi?" Xu Qing, seemingly sensing something, returned to the Pavilion of All Heavens in the primordial universe.
The instant he returned to the Pavilion of All Heavens, a human figure symbolizing transcendence and liberation from suffering appeared before him.
A panel appeared before Xu Qing's eyes:
-
[Guest: Hong Yi]
[World: Yangshen]
[Strength: Peak of the Seventeenth Rank (Perfect God Emperor, Half-Primordial Origin)]
[Items available for purchase: Bridge to the Other Shore (Quantity: 1200 trillion), The Realm of the Other Shore (?), Incense and Faith (1200 trillion)...]
Compared to his previous displays of power, Hong Yi's power was now vastly different, like the difference between a firefly and the moon, or between a speck of dust and a sea of stars.
It was almost integrated with the silk thread behind it. Xu Qing seemed to see the Yang Shen Universe in Hong Yi, as if Hong Yi was the Yang Shen Universe and the Yang Shen Universe was Hong Yi, and he himself represented everything in his worldview.
Xu Qing saw an infinite world, a universe being opened up and born.
Hong Yi's boundless power entered the silk thread, and boundless power returned to Hong Yi's body.
The moment Hong Yi arrived at the Zhutian Pavilion, his panel data changed again.
The seventeenth rank, which represented strength, suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a new eighteenth rank (Advanced Chaos Origin).
Even so, the power within Hong Yi continued to expand infinitely, multiplying countless times every second, as if it would never stop.
It is foreseeable that even lords at the nineteenth or even twentieth tier will be easily attained by Hong Yi.
Cross over.
"It seems that Yi Zi's grand ambition has been fulfilled." Xu Qing smiled with delight upon seeing this.
