Chapter 417: Evil Ghosts Above the Buddhas, Demons Above the Immortals

“All of this started 3,000 years ago…” Zhao Tianyi recounted the past.

3,000 years ago, Taihong Star was only a very ordinary living star in the starry skies of the myriad worlds. The strongest cultivator there was only at the Mystic Deity realm.

Although Taihong Star was not too weak at that time, it was definitely not strong. It was vastly different from the situation now, where they have five Creator realm experts.

It was only after the Heaven Gate opened that Taihong Star underwent such a world-shaking change. Moreover, it left its original location and arrived at the edge of this Star Field.

According to Zhao Tianyi, the Heaven Gate suddenly appeared and opened without warning. Before that, they did not sense any abnormalities at all.

One day, a huge door more than 10,000 feet tall suddenly appeared in the sky above Taihong Star. Its entire body emitted an incomparably holy light, as if it was a supreme divine object that had descended from an endless height. It was extremely noble.

Moreover, that huge door gave off an extremely ancient feeling, as if it was a treasure that had existed since the endless ages. It was eternal and indestructible.

At that moment, everyone on Taihong Star could see this huge door clearly. Moreover, even if one only took a look at this huge door, they would instantly comprehend all kinds of mysterious and powerful martial techniques. Most of the martial arts inheritances on Taihong Star were comprehended at that time.

In addition, after seeing the huge door, one would naturally know what it was.

“Heaven’s Gate. After passing it, you can head to the Heaven Realm.”

This was also the reason why the people of Taihong Star knew that it was the Heaven Gate.

Such a magical phenomenon was unimaginable to the people on Taihong Star at that time. There was no way to understand it at all.

Granted, they did not have the time to understand.

Zhao Tianyi described that after the Heaven Gate appeared, in less than 15 minutes, the two tightly closed doors suddenly opened.

What followed was an unimaginably powerful suction force.

The void around Taihong Star suddenly distorted, and the entire planet and all the living beings on it became smaller as they were sucked into the Heaven Gate.

“After entering the Heaven Gate, the first thing we saw was an endless expanse of scarlet light…”

Zhao Tianyi paused when he said this. He looked at Zen Master Shantong and the others and said in a low voice, “It’s the light they triggered when they conducted the sacrifice earlier.”

“This light has an extremely strong corruption ability. For most people, the moment they are infected by this light, they will either instantly rot into dust or lose their minds and turn into monsters with eyes all over their bodies. It’s very terrifying.”

“After we passed through the scarlet light, 90% of the living beings on Taihong Star were dead. My daughter also died at that time. I saw her decay into a ball of dust with my own eyes, but there was nothing I could do.”

Zhao Tianyi’s voice was a little sorrowful, clearly recalling the helpless scene back then.

After calming down, he continued, “After passing through the scarlet light, we came to an empty place. There was nothing there, only endless white.”

“However, it’s also in this place that our bodies and souls were baptized and purified from the inside out, allowing us, who originally only had ordinary physiques, to suddenly have many geniuses with Divine Bodies and Sacred Bodies that are more suitable for cultivation.”

“After this rebirth, most of the people fell into a deep sleep. Only the five of us who are Creators now, were awake.”

“We saw five golden lights suddenly descend from the endless snow-white void. We each entered a golden light and were teleported to different places.”

“I went to a palace filled with talismans and cloud seals. There, I entered a state of epiphany and optimized my original cultivation technique. That was how I wrote the Heavenly Seal Jade Chapter Secret Records.”

“After I comprehended the Heavenly Seal Jade Chapter Secret Records, I left the palace. After a moment of daze, I realized that Taihong Star had already returned to the void of the universe.”

“As for where the remaining four were sent to, I don’t know.”

At this point, he looked at Zen Master Shanfa, Yue Canghai, and the others. Zen Master Xuan Bei and the other two Creators also looked thoughtful.

“Amitabha.” Zen Master Xuan Bei suddenly opened his mouth and chanted a Buddhist proclamation. He pressed his palms together and bowed respectfully to Cui Heng. “Immortal Venerable, since Zhao Tianyi has already said it, This old monk will naturally also explain my part clearly.”

“I’m different from Zhao Tianyi. I wasn’t sent to any palace. Instead, I came to a boundless pure land. There were millions of Buddhas and endless Buddhist light. Above all of that, there was a golden lotus platform.”

“But, but… the person sitting on the golden lotus platform was not the Buddha Ancestor, nor was it the Lord of the Pure Land. It’s actually an evil ghost that’s completely scarlet in color.”

“The moment I saw the evil ghost, I also saw the appearance of the millions of Buddhas clearly. Their Buddhist bodies were incomplete, and their Buddhist light was dim. Their entire bodies were covered in golden blood, and their faces were filled with resentment and anger.”

“It was in that environment that I comprehended the Dao of Life and Death. My Dharmic techniques improved greatly, and my cultivation increased by leaps and bounds. I also saw the path ahead clearly.”

“Subsequently, I was sent out like Zhao Tianyi. At that time, Taihong Star had already returned to the void of the universe.”

Zen Master Xuan Bei’s description surprised everyone, especially Zhao Tianyi. He had always thought that the experience in the Heaven Gate should be relatively safe. He did not expect such a dangerous situation.

Sitting on the top of millions of Buddhas was actually a scarlet evil ghost.

This was too terrifying.

Moreover, his entire body was scarlet… Could it be related to the Outer World?

“This poor Daoist’s encounter is similar to Master Xuan Bei’s,” another Creator said. He was the Sect Master of the Three Mountains Mystic Palace, Daoist Taichong. He said in a low voice, “I was sent to an Immortal paradise filled with jade flowers, ornate pavilions, and music.”

“There are countless Immortals dancing there, golden boys and girls playing, and many Immortals preaching scriptures. It’s completely an Immortal scene. But above all of this is actually a strange Daoist with hundreds of eyes on his face.”

Cui Heng fell into deep thought when he heard this. His gaze swept across the three of them, then he turned to Zen Master Shantong and Yue Canghai and said indifferently, “Don’t the two of you have anything to say?”

“We…” Zen Master Shantong opened his mouth but hesitated. He was completely in despair now and no longer expected the Outer World Divine Lord to save him.”

However, he still felt a little lucky. He took a deep breath and said, “Immortal Venerable, if I tell you, can you spare my life…”

“Heh.” Cui Heng sneered, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Zen Master Shantong’s body suddenly lit up with a faint light. In an instant, he turned into an ant and crawled everywhere on the ground.

The entire hall instantly fell silent. Everyone looked at the ant in disbelief.

A Creator had actually been turned into an ant!

Especially Yue Canghai, who was beside Zen Master Shantong, he was so frightened that his soul left his body. He kowtowed and said, “Immortal Venerable, I’m willing to say, I’m willing to say anything!”

“There’s one thing. There’s one thing that I experienced that’s different from them. Actually, I already knew before the Heaven Gate appeared, that there would be such an event. It was someone called Zhou Juntian who told me.”
