Chapter 500: The Sun and the Moon Decline
Chapter 500: The Sun and the Moon Decline
Inhalation tract.
The extraordinary phenomenon of the sun and moon shining together spread throughout the world.
As the meteor shower fell, the image of the Great Sun Tathagata in the blazing sun instantly changed.
Boundless rage emerged, and within the Kalachakra Mandala, the one sitting cross-legged was no longer the original Vairocana Buddha, but had quietly transformed into a wrathful form!
A strange form of Acala, with three faces and eight arms, which many eminent monks in the past had never seen before, appeared.
It filled the heavens and the earth, its three sides displaying an angry appearance, each arm hanging down as if it could overturn the continent.
Above the sky, the sun shone brightly.
But the next moment, the stars suddenly twinkled, like a pair of eyes that only cared about their size opening and closing.
A bluish-purple aura churned across the horizon.
That was an extremely rich 'Great Sun Purple Qi' and 'Taiyin Azure Qi'. A bright moon quietly appeared, carrying the signs of Yin and Yang, water and fire. Under the moonlight, the churning 'Taiyin Azure Qi' continuously devoured the 'Great Sun Purple Qi', and suddenly transformed into a strange primordial being that seemed to be the ancestor of all things and could govern all heroes!
"The primordial nothingness?" From that great sun came the vast Sanskrit voice of "Mahavairocana Tathagata".
The bright moon remained unchanged, except that it was surrounded by a hazy haze, which was the "achievement" transformed from the "Primordial Genius"!
shhhhh!
Above the sky, cyan completely overshadowed purple, pressing the sky down into a pure cyan, while the cool moonlight shone down, making the surrounding area look like mercury spilled on the ground.
After obtaining the [Chamber Fire] ranking and advancing to the Golden Core Perfection stage, that 'Toad Palace Condensed Embryo Transformation Primordial Sovereign' seemed to have undergone some changes, and was actually able to suppress 'Great Sun Tathagata'!
Rumble!
The secret realm trembled, and countless temples roared.
Numerous lineages converge, like tassels, gathering above the great sun in the sky.
Deep beneath the Hidden Domain, the dormant 'Humanity Origin' was activated, causing the world to be filled with a scene of heavenly flowers falling and golden lotuses blooming, as well as Buddhist chants and hymns. The 'Hidden Origin' is the remains of the ancient Great Sun [Year], and its status is already half a notch higher than [Year]!
A phantom pure white sun rose from the secret realm and disappeared into the crimson sun that contained the three-faced, eight-armed Acala.
The Great Sun Purple Qi suddenly surged forth!
Between heaven and earth, the moonlight faded, leaving only the sun shining brightly!
The vast expanse of azure energy was compressed into a corner of the sky.
Without the "Year-Taishang" (a powerful deity in Chinese mythology associated with the year), a fully-fledged Golden Core cultivator like the Great Sun Tathagata, aided by the corpse of a previous Great Sun "Year-Taishang" cultivator, would be virtually invincible!
But then, something surprising happened!
In the midst of the crimson sun, the illusory pure white blazing sun suddenly split open and plunged into the interior of the bright moon!
On the edge of the bright moon, there are three twinkling stars.
Two of them represent water and fire, while the remaining one, surrounded by purple aura, is precisely the missing [Fang Ri]!
It is precisely because of its lack that it attracts that pure white sun at this moment, as if it fits perfectly and is just in time!
In the Taihuang Heaven of Yin Yang Water and Fire, the Mysterious and Subtle Primordial Lord gazed at the azure energy that had once again overwhelmed the purple sky, his voice tinged with fear: "Not Him? It is Him! No wonder... He dared to prove Yin Yang Water and Fire... He wanted to prove Water and Fire Yin Yang."
"You are not the Yin... but... the Sun!"
From within the blazing crimson sun came the angry voice of the Great Sun Tathagata: "The true Yin [Year Ruler] revived at the end of antiquity, but I sent it back to nothingness... Since then, the consciousness of the Yin [Year Ruler] has been extinguished. You are the Great Sun [Year Ruler]! Therefore, you can rely on the position of the Secret Treasury Source!"
The Great Sun [Yearly Ruler] devoured the Taiyin, Metal Virtue, and Fire Virtue [Yearly Rulers] in ancient times, and theoretically it is half a level above the [Yearly Ruler].
This is why Chi's consciousness can be revived not only in the Great Sun Dao lineage, but also in the Taiyin and the Metal Fire!
The path chosen by the Great Sun [ruling the year] is such that the Great Sun, the Moon, Metal, and Fire fail at the last hurdle.
In this second life, I will first prepare to advance to the [Yearly Officer] level using the principles of Yin and Yang, water and fire, as a rehearsal for breaking through to the next level!
This move was even a trump card intended to kill "Mahavairocana"!
The reason why the True Lord above [Dangerous Moon] revealed it at this time is probably because he saw that the position of [Ji Huo] had been taken away and there was no hope of advancing to above [Zhi Sui] in a short time!
At this moment, all the mortals and cultivators of the Qi Cultivation Path, as well as the mountains and rivers, seemed to freeze instantly, like sculptures.
It's as if the power of "time and years" has been seized by a certain "year-duty person"!
In various places, the True Lords erupted with resentment; in the south, raging fires raged, sword energy surged, and in the outer sea, a great towering platform stood, its waves surging...
But in the end, it all faded into silence.
In this world that seems frozen in time, only the great sun can still move.
The three golden positions of 【Starry Sun】, 【Soaring Sun】, and 【Empty Sun】 transformed into blazing suns, encircling the golden position of 【Tathagata】 that had emerged from emptiness.
A golden "中" character appeared, which was pushed out by the "Great Sun Tathagata" with a palm. It turned into golden runes like the sand of time, carrying the meaning of the blazing sun, and crashed down!
At that very moment, in the Taihuang Heaven, the cave quietly opened, and the [Siyin] metal position transformed into the 'Gate of Ghosts' supernatural power. A Taoist priest with a blurred face, covered in water and fire, and wearing an ancient sword at his waist walked out from it.
The four elements of metal, wood, water, and fire converged around him, and there was also a faint echo of the Taoist virtue of metal position. Suddenly, he swung his sword!
It was the "Kitchen God," or rather, the "Eastern Primordial Spirit-Responding God," who made the move! He only targeted the Secret Treasury because of his past relationship with the Phoenix.
Now that they have encountered a cataclysmic calamity, they will naturally stand on the side of the many True Lords.
Now, only a few high-ranking figures who have reached the peak of the Golden Core stage can truly take action, unaffected by the [Yearly Official]'s authority to "control the passage of time"...
"this……"
Within the eight great cold forests of Buddhist land.
Perhaps due to the 'Dao Sheng Pearl', Fang Qing was also not suppressed and could see the changes in the blue and purple color of the sky, as well as the magnificent full moon!
"The True Lord of the [Dangerous Moon] position, that 'Primordial Sovereign of the Toad Palace'... the one whose body has been revived is not the Taiyin [Yearly Ruler], but the Great Sun [Yearly Ruler]!"
He gasped.
If one is completely unaware of these crucial secrets and then uses [Mystic Thunder] against them, the outcome may be unpredictable.
After all, the fact that [Mysterious Thunder] dissolves the Yin-Yang trump card is something that the Great Sun [Yearly Steward] must know!
In fact, the other party might covet him even more, which is why there was the Seeking Gold Method in the Xuanxu Heaven back then, as well as the supernatural power of "Moon in the Water"!
They're all cunning old foxes, hiding their cards better than anyone else, never revealing them until the very last moment.
Even at the very last moment, it might not be found.
Fang Qing was speechless, but at this moment, he had no choice but to help the "Great Sun Tathagata" and the "Kitchen God".
Plans can't keep up with changes.
Once that Great Sun [Duty Officer] obtains his own remains, he almost possesses the power of a [Duty Officer]!
If we don't join forces to defeat it, the entire Heavenly Dao will belong to it. My true self will take away the position of [Winged Fire], making it difficult for it to covet the realm above [Year], and it will be regarded as a thorn in my side!
Therefore, even though the Great Sun Tathagata attacked him before, he should still deal with the Great Sun [Yearly Official] who has returned from his resurrection first!
In this short period of time, relying on the Dao Sheng Pearl to forcefully suppress it, Fang Qing has already made some progress in integrating his four golden positions.
"【Winged Fire】is the ruler, wielding the fiery might of the Vermilion Bird, opening and closing the celestial order. 【Lady】is the minister, embodying the tranquil virtue of the earth, stabilizing the central yellow. 【Mysterious Thunder】is harmonious, breaking through stagnation and spreading energy, expanding according to the ruler's command. 【Winnowing Basket Water】is reserved, dredging and guiding the excess, guarding the way of loss to prolong its life... Fire finds its home in earth and scholars, its power shines in thunder, and it does not stagnate in water."
"With the positions of ruler and minister established, and assistants and envoys fulfilling their duties, the four elements in harmony, and all things established on their foundation... the shuttle of time is turned, and the mechanism of creation is activated..."
Dark yellow clouds soared into the sky, spreading out into the eight great cold forest grottoes, within which waters flowed swiftly...
Clusters of thunder and fire suddenly erupted, carrying the power to dissipate the yin energy, and crashed into the bright moon!
……
Beyond the heavens.
"As expected... it was still too much of a stretch."
Fang Qing stood motionless, then suddenly sighed.
The four golden positions that they cobbled together haphazardly were utterly incapable of achieving the "Yearly Duty"; they could only unleash the power of a fully matured Golden Core in an instant, before crumbling away...
Moreover, if it weren't for the fact that his family used the Dao-Born Pearl to suppress the three major metal positions of [Winged Fire], [Mysterious Thunder], and [Winnowing Basket Water], how easy would it have been for Sangji to integrate them with his own body? He would have either perished, been driven mad by the overwhelming torrent, or even perished in the Dao...
After that attack, it even lost contact with its original form, seemingly perishing.
"What's going on with the Daoist practice of 'Taoist Qi'?"
Fang Qing murmured something, but showed no intention of turning around.
Ordinary Golden Core True Monarchs, even the Great Sun Tathagata, would have no way to turn back once they arrived here.
However, he can still use the "Dao Sheng Zhu" to go anywhere, locate the Dao of Heaven and Earth, and then return.
But why bother?
Now that you've finally escaped that cesspool, why go back?
Fang Qing tried to communicate with Sangji through the "Dao Sheng Zhu" but found that he was completely unable to descend.
Because the opponent was already severely injured, just like the 'Lord of the Corpse Forest' back then, his body had fallen into a deep sleep, and might even gradually perish in his sleep...
As He slept, the entire Eight Great Cold Forest Buddhist Lands also fell silent.
"Well, is this the price for forcibly elevating someone from the early stage of the Golden Core realm to the peak? Perhaps there will also be a backlash from the Taiyin?"
Fang Qing's gaze shifted, sensing a cold, clear moonlight within Sangji's body, like a bright moon hanging high, yet subtly and gradually eroding Sangji's metallic essence...
With a thought, he focused his attention on Wuneng Shengduzi.
It was dusk; the sun was setting and the crescent moon was rising, but the sun and moon in the sky seemed somewhat illusory.
The spiritual atmosphere between heaven and earth has changed drastically, which is called "the severing of the sun and moon"!
"When the sun and moon are extinguished, heaven and earth grieve; even a true lord finds it difficult to act."
A glint flashed in Fang Qing's eyes: "It seems that the Kitchen God, the Great Sun Tathagata, and my final attack all suffered heavy losses against that Great Sun [Yearly Official]? And the aftershocks severely injured all the True Lords, even causing the heavens and earth to decay?"
"This is probably what the end of ancient times was like..."
