Ning Cheng didn’t bother to beat around the bush and said directly, “The Sha Xun that I killed earlier, I heard that it was the fourth one sitting in the Western Universe Qu Bodh Holy Buddha?”
The corners of the Wu Clan Ancestor Di Hong’s mouth twitched, what heard, clearly you said it yourself to that Sha Xun, you have said it several times, and you still heard it.
Now that Ning Cheng asked, he did not dare to ask Ning Cheng back, still pretending that he had heard about it he replied politely, “Indeed, that Sha Xun is the fourth dharma under the Western Universe Buddha Lord Qu Bodh Holy Buddha, and has an incomparably noble status in the Western Universe.”
“Oh, that Qu Bodhisattva Saint Buddha is very powerful?” Ning Cheng asked as if nothing had happened as he lifted his cup of tea.
Zu Di Hong didn’t even care about Ning Cheng’s indifference and said with a cautious face, “I haven’t met the Qu Bodh Holy Buddha, he shouldn’t be weaker than Daoist Lord Ning ……”
As soon as Ning Cheng took one look at the expression on Ancestral Emperor Hong’s face when he spoke, he knew that the other party’s words were not what he truly thought in his heart. Perhaps in Hong’s heart, this point of his dao was far, far worse than the Western Buddha Lord.
Ning Cheng did not care either, he had come here to inquire about news. If the Qu Bodh Holy Buddha could fight the Five Elements Holy Lord and still not fall, then his strength must be extremely powerful. He wouldn’t believe it if he were to say that he was too far behind the Western Buddha Lord.
“…… In the Western Universe, the Qu Bodh Holy Buddha is the lord. He has nine Dzogchen under him, and I heard that three of them fell during the creation battle back then, leaving six Dzogchen left ……”
“Wait ……” Ning Cheng raised his hand and interrupted Hong’s words, “Fellow Daoist Hong, you said that three people fell in the Creation War, could it be that the Creation War Qu Bodh Holy Buddha did not participate?”
Hong replied, “It is true that when the Creation War began, the Buddha Lord did not participate. It’s not that he didn’t want to participate, but he heard that he was badly injured and simply couldn’t participate.”
“Who was able to make him seriously injured?” Ning Cheng had already vaguely guessed what was going on in his heart, but his mouth still asked.
Hong explained with a respectful expression on his face, “Before the Great Battle of Creation opened, there was an even more terrifying great battle. Those who participated in that great battle were the most powerful and strongest people in the countless realms, among them were the Five Elements Saint Lord, the Underworld River Heavenly Dweller, the Light and Darkness Saint Lord, the Infinite Palace Lord, the Violet Sky Daoist, and also the Qu Bodhisattva Saint Buddha ……”
“Daoist Violet Sky also participated in that great battle?” Ning Cheng had originally wanted to ask if that great battle was because of Jian Mu, and when he heard about Violet Xiao, he couldn’t help but throw his original question to the side.
Hong nodded and said, “I heard that when that great battle started, only Daoist Violet Xiao was watching from the sidelines and did not intervene. The rest of the powerful people fought so hard that the realm universe was reduced to pieces. The Five Elements Saint Lord was badly injured in that battle and was rumoured to have fallen later. The Qu Bodh Holy Buddha was also badly injured in that battle and almost fell away. I’m sure that after all these years, he has long since recovered from his injuries.”
“What about the Light and Darkness Saint Lord, the Immeasurable Palace Lord and the Underworld River Heavenly Dweller?” Ning Cheng asked again.
Hong shook his head, “I’m not really sure anymore, according to the information passed down from my Witch Clan ancestors, it was that all of these people were seriously injured, as for the outcome, I don’t know.
“What was this battle for specifically?” The information Ning Cheng had received from Shen Yun was not necessarily reliable, and it was because of this that Ning Cheng wanted to make sure here in Hong.
Hong did not answer directly, but asked Ning Cheng in return, “I wonder if Daoist Monarch Ning has heard of the Chaos Realm?”
Ning Cheng nodded, “I have heard of the Chaos Realm and have even been there, does it have something to do with the Chaos Realm?”
“That’s right, it does have something to do with the Chaos Realm. The Chaos Realm was the core of the Vast Universe when it was first divided, where there were the top treasures. When the Vast Universe Chaos was first divided, the Chaos Realm had the Four Treasures of Creation, which were the Creation Xuanhuang Pearl, the Creation Indestructible Axe, the Creation Golden Page and the Creation Green Lotus ……”
Hong’s words were once again interrupted by Ning Cheng, “Fellow Daoist Hong, Creation is not four treasures but five treasures.”
Hong smiled faintly, “Creation is indeed five treasures, but the Jade Disc of Creation had a winner at the beginning of the chaos of the universe, and the winner was Daoist Violet Sky.”
“This Purple Sky has such great origins?” Ji He Yi on the other side could not help but marvel.
Hong seemed to be afraid of being heard by Daoist Zi Xiao as he was talking, and suddenly gave a fist to the void before saying, “The universe is divided into five treasures, and the Holy Lord runs around the sky; there is a Buddha Lord in the West, and the River Hades is a Cultivation Tu; if you want to ask who dominates the sky, Zi Xiao is still in front.”
Ning Cheng was instantly moved, he had previously thought that Daoist Violet Sky was one of the Five Treasures winners. He was now also one of the Five Treasures’ winners, remarkable that everyone was on an equal footing. Little did he know that Daoist Violet Sky’s origins were so great, even before the universe. Even if this was only a rumour, it was still a bit outrageous.
“Fellow Daoist Hong, that Saint Lord should not be referring to the Five Great Saint Lords, right?” Ning Cheng thought that with Yi Gui San and Xuan Huang Lone Swallow, they probably weren’t qualified to be ranked in this ballad.
Hong chuckled, “They are not qualified yet, this Saint Lord refers to the Five Elements Saint Lord, the Light and Darkness Saint Lord and the Western Saint Lord.”
Without waiting for Ning Cheng to ask, Hong took the initiative to explain, “Not only is there a Qu Bodh Holy Buddha in the West, there is also a Holy Lord, who is equally powerful, only that there was no news of him later.”
Ning Cheng knew what was going on without asking, the Qu Bodhidharma Lord of the West must be an extremely powerful person, with such a powerful being in the West, would he allow another Saint Lord to appear? It must be that there could only be one left between the two, and now that only the Buddha Lord existed, then the victory had long been divided.
“Fellow Daoist Hong, go on to talk about the matters behind the Chaos Realm.” Ning Cheng could tell that Hong also did not want to talk more about the feud between the Western Saint Lord and the Buddha Lord.
Hong nodded and continued, “The most precious treasure in the Chaos Realm is not that Four Treasures of Creation, however, but a tree.”
“Could the Ancestral Emperor be talking about the Chaos Tree?” Ji Huo Yi couldn’t help but ask, she had also heard of the Chaos Tree.
“No, this tree is called the Jian Mu. Back then, the Five Elements Saint Lord obtained the Jian Mu, and even though the Four Treasures of Creation escaped from the Chaos Inner Realm at that time, he still put all his efforts into the Jian Mu. It was just that the aura of the Jianmu was so powerful that even with the strength of the Five Elements Saint Lord, he was unable to completely curb the Jianmu aura in the early stages, which eventually attracted many powerful people ……”
“These are the people who fought in the Chaos Realm?” Ning Cheng thought of the Jian Mu nail in the Chaos Inner Realm.
Hong sighed and said, “If it was a great battle in the Chaos Realm, the Chaos Realm would have been blown to pieces long ago. The Five Element Saint Emperor knew that there were extremely important treasures in the Chaos Realm, and he had purposely stayed away from the Chaos Realm. That great battle broke too many realms and realms despite being in the endless void. I heard that the Five Elements Sage Emperor was eventually overwhelmed and turned the Jian Mu that had arrived into countless Jian Mu nails against his opponent, which led to both defeats with his opponent.”
Ning Cheng secretly nodded, the Jian Mu nails in the Chaotic Inner Realm should have been directly broken through the Chaotic Realm when the Five Element Saint Emperor had attacked in the first place and infiltrated it.
Thinking of this, Ning Cheng’s heart was even more shocked. He knew exactly how hard the Chaos Inner Realm was and how strong the rules were. If he hadn’t invited the Creation Immortality Axe, or even if many strong people had joined forces, the Chaos Inner Realm would have been impossible to open. And a single Jian Mu nail from the Five Elements Saint Lord could break through the endless void and enter the Chaos Inner Realm, how powerful did this have to be?
No wonder the nail was not discovered elsewhere, without the Chaotic Inner Realm to block it, the nail might have passed through the endless void and the universe after being shot out, who knows where it went?
“After this great battle, the vast universe fell into silence. Then later on, five great saint lords rose, as well as ten great dao rulers.” Hong finished speaking and also fell silent.
How many fervent battles had occurred in the Vast Universe? How many powerful people had fought for each other? But there was no trace of the Witch Clan in the middle of it all.
“So the first time the Gate of Creation opened was after the rise of these Five Great Sage Lords and Ten Great Dao Monarchs?” Ning Cheng asked, and he sort of understood why no supreme-level powerhouse like the Western Buddha Lord had come over when the Gate of Creation opened.
Hong responded, “Yes, it is rumoured that the Gate of Creation opened after the Five Treasures of Creation were complete. The fact that the Five Elements Saint Lord got the Jian Mu and the rest of the four treasures of creation escaped away means that the Gate of Creation is about to open.”
Ning Cheng cupped his fist to Ancestral Emperor Hong and said, “Thank you, Fellow Daoist Hong, for clearing up the confusion, I have one last question to ask. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Hong knows where the Western Universe enters from? How far is it from here?”
Although he had not left Xing Xi behind, Ning Cheng still felt that he had gained a lot this time, and the things that Ancestral Emperor Hong had said were all things that he did not know before. They had great significance to him.
Hong suddenly stood up, bowed and cupped his fist to Ning Cheng and said, “The Western Universe is actually not far from my Witch Clan, which is at the edge of the Five Elements Universe. Entering from this edge, with Daoist Monarch’s footsteps, I estimate that I will be able to reach the Western Universe in a few decades at most.”
After saying this, Hong’s expression was even more respectful, “Daoist Monarch Ning, you also know that my Witch Clan is weak. The Buddha Lord’s fourth djinn, Sha Xun, has fallen in my Witch Tribe’s Witch Emperor’s Palace, a matter that my Witch Tribe cannot explain even if they are full of mouths. Please ask Daojun Ning to explain for my witch tribe, even if you leave a crystal ball behind ……”
Ning Cheng laughed coldly in his heart, no wonder this Hong was so humble, it turned out that he was afraid of taking the blame, and it would be better if he stayed with the Witch Clan to atone for his sins. It was just that Hong did not dare to say this, so he only dared to request him to leave a crystal ball behind. I guess this Hong would not want him to curse the Western Saint Buddha in the crystal ball so that the Witch Clan could get away with killing Sha Xun.”
This Hong was no good either, if he hadn’t come in time, even if Xing Xi hadn’t come, Yu Qing would have been taken away by Sassoon at this moment. Even if Hong was trying to save the Witch Clan by throwing Yu Qing out like this to be used as a furnace, he was still not happy in his heart.
Ning Cheng stood up and said indifferently, “So you have to pass through here to go to the Western Universe, only that no one has ever been to the Western Universe, Daoist Brother Hong has also heard about it, right? The void at the edge of the universe is not even as good as the chaotic void, it has no direction, so I guess no one will go in.”
When Hong saw Ning Cheng stand up and immediately look like he was about to leave, he panicked, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, “If the Five Elements Universe wants to go to the Western Universe, it does have to pass through our Witch Clan. Not long ago there were two people who passed through my Witch Realm between chasing and fleeing and vanish into the void at the edge of the universe …… By the way, my Witch Clan has the Realm Monitoring Formation ……”
As he spoke, Hong waved his hand and it transformed into a large screen of void space.
Ning Cheng sighed, this witch tribe’s people were really cultivation geniuses, they didn’t cultivate divine thoughts originally, how long has it been since they cultivated divine thoughts now? Ancestor Emperor Hong’s divine thoughts were also so powerful.
“Wait …… Fellow Daoist Hong, you reveal the image of these two people who have fled once more.” Ning Cheng stared at the large void screen and said in an excited tone.
The two people who had fled were very blurry, and Ning Cheng still felt that one of them somewhat resembled Cang Wei.
