Shen Yi deceived the Human Emperor, cleverly seizing the Emperor’s Aura, all for his own transcendence.
All his curses were directly suppressed by this crisp voice.
Lin Shuya’s mind was blank.
That is transcendence, something even Immortals and Buddhas yearn for in their dreams, yet there are people in the world who don’t care about it at all, and he had encountered two of them in succession.
You don’t even want transcendence, what is it that you actually desire?
Even Lin Shuya didn’t realize that two streaks of tears were flowing from the deep sockets of his eyes.
It was not self-blame or sudden realization.
But a kind of desperate powerlessness.
He suddenly realized that he could no longer find an excuse to convince himself that he was establishing a destiny for the common people, that he was saving the Red Dust.
Even if he wore his lips out trying to explain, under the action of crushing the Blood Jade, no one would believe that Shen Yi was doing it for himself.
If he couldn’t attack this person’s heart, he could only attack his foolishness.
This action indeed does not disgrace the Dao Heart, but it is a shame upon the world!
"Immortals and Buddhas are undefeatable—"
Lin Shuya let out a torn roar.
As if responding to his turbulent emotions, the True Buddha Emperor outside the hall, after a brief shock, gradually showed a strange smile on his face.
"Shen Yi, you truly make this Emperor admire you greatly."
Emperor Dongji’s face twitched slightly, and he gently clapped his hands, as if he couldn’t help but laugh out loud in the next moment.
This young man never thought that if resisting the two teachings were so simple, wouldn’t that Human Emperor have done it already, instead of leaving it to others?
Indeed, this dense Emperor’s Aura covered Shen Zhou.
The disciples of the two teachings will inevitably suffer heavy losses and can only withdraw quickly, but don’t forget, this kind of Emperor’s Aura... will gradually be consumed.
As time passes, it will only become thinner.
Moreover, the disciples of the two teachings can also use various methods to nibble away at it, accelerating this thinning process while using it to strengthen themselves.
Of course, it might take a very long time.
But time is precisely the thing that Immortals and Buddhas care least about.
This is the only thing in the Human World that can threaten the two teachings, causing the Sect Hierarchs endless headaches, preferring to exchange it for an Immortal Emperor’s position with a touch of authority.
But Shen Yi used it as a tonic for the two teachings.
"Since you don’t want to be an Immortal Emperor, then continue to be a wanted criminal." Joyful True Buddha said with a faint smile, lightly sighing.
This all-encompassing Emperor’s Aura can indeed suppress Immortals and Buddhas, but being a True Buddha Emperor, even when suppressed to the extreme, a First Rank and a Second Rank are entirely different levels of existence.
To put it harshly, the reason he’s still willing to waste words with the other party is merely to make up for the face he lost earlier.
Otherwise, a snap of the fingers could wipe him out.
Shen Yi exhaled a turbid breath, waved his hand, and a token flew out from Ye Lan’s body. He meticulously tied it to his waist and said calmly, "This is the Divine Dynasty."
The next moment, he slowly lifted his head, looking down at the two people at the long steps below, his gaze turning indifferent: "In front of this official, you are the wanted criminals."
Just an ordinary Demon Slaying Order, in front of a First Rank Giant, it clearly held no practical use, more like a symbol of identity.
"Still talking nonsense..."
Emperor Dongji sneered, but before he could finish his words, the smile on his face suddenly froze for a moment.
In an instant, his pupils twitched slightly, as if he had seen something bizarre.
Shen Yi still stood in the hall, his dark hair gently swaying, his fair and handsome face unchanged, yet inexplicably gaining an indescribable noble majesty.
Meanwhile, Joyful True Buddha was startled, raising his head to look behind the young man.
In this world filled with swirling Emperor’s Aura, a massive black shadow appeared behind Shen Yi, quietly seated behind him, becoming solid from its initial flickering state. Below the shadow was a black Lotus Platform blooming in anger!
The Emperor stared at Shen Yi himself, while the True Buddha gazed at that shadow.
They could only see what they wanted to see.
The next moment, voices filled with shock and anger echoed in unison.
"You became an Emperor!"
"You became a Buddha!"
The two suddenly met each other’s eyes, both witnessing the intense waves in the other’s gaze.
Two sides of the same coin, but regardless of which side, both were bursting with the terrifying aura belonging only to a First Rank Giant.
At this point, how could the two still not figure out that Shen Yi had lied, but the lie itself was not important. What truly mattered was, apart from becoming an Immortal Emperor, what else in the current world could cause divine feedback.
Linking it to what just happened, the answer was actually quite obvious.
It was just that Emperor Dongji and the Joyful True Buddha could not believe it.
If swearing to be an Immortal Emperor was enough to make one feel a tinge of trepidation, marveling at the ambition and resolve of the other party.
Then, given the previous situation was still unclear, with the high levels of the two sects not showing their faces, and the Divine Dynasty in imminent danger with no chance of victory... making an Immortal Oath like pacifying the world, protecting the Dao in the Red Dust was simply akin to seeking death.
Which Golden Immortal, who had tread the hard path of cultivation, would dare to joke with their path !
To put it bluntly, even if in terms of rhetoric, Shen Yi really uttered this Immortal Oath, none of the many sect disciples present would believe it.
No wonder the two sects couldn’t fathom this person’s thoughts.
It turned out that this madman never intended to live from the beginning!
The giant black shadow’s palms slowly joined together, and the echoes of the Heavenly Dao sang his honorable name.
Aside from the three Sect Hierarchs, the world now had a tenth True Buddha.
Immovable Venerable King Buddha.
Shen Yi slowly raised his right palm, his skin as smooth and warm as white jade, making his already handsome face appear even nobler.
The traits of the Dao Fruit and Fruit Position seemed to have been swapped.
The title of Jade Void Universe Emperor was likewise sung in the echoes of the Heavenly Dao.
But there was not much joy in his brows and eyes.
The moment the Jade Emperor descended upon the Human World, it also meant that the one among the Six Emperors who was not a Cultivator was also replaced by one.
Eventually, the Six Emperors were completed!
From now on, anyone of First Rank in the world would be Immortal Buddha, leaving no place for mortals.
The Imperial City rumbled.
In that courtyard’s wine pool, the Coiling Dragon Stone Pillar, which once suppressed the Eight Seas, rose swiftly, causing the ground to shake violently, and the vast ocean beyond the Four Continents began to churn as if it was about to pour over this Azure Sky.
The stone skin, along with the moss, fell away, revealing the delicate patterns on the stone pillar.
It transformed into a long stick, spanning across the firmament, and fell into Shen Yi’s grasp.
At the same time, the massive, mountain-like shadow suddenly turned into lotus leaves that scattered, gathered like a long river, twirling and landing onto that frail figure, transforming into a pitch-black kasaya.
Rather than a kasaya, it looked more like a mystic robe, dancing wantonly in the sky.
At this moment, the Dao Fruit and Fruit Position finally completely merged, forging the only First Rank Giant in the world who was both Immortal and Buddha.
Shen Yi’s five fingers gradually exerted force, gripping the stone stick firmly. Unhurriedly, he stepped forward, walking toward the Joyful True Buddha.
"You’ve become the Jade Emperor, yet do you not know which side you’re on?!"
The Joyful True Buddha instinctively took a step back, mainly because he had never seen such a bizarre First Rank path, and being suppressed by the Emperor’s Aura into uncertainty, wanted to avoid confrontation instinctively.
The response was a strike to the head.
Shen Yi’s thin lips pressed tightly as he vigorously swung the stick down; the stick body easily tore through the dense Buddha Light, landing fiercely on the Joyful True Buddha’s right shoulder.
The old monk’s form moved slightly, covering countless mountains and rivers in distance.
But the stick remained steadily pressed on his shoulder.
The Joyful True Buddha’s eyes once again brimmed with surprise and anger; when he turned around, he found himself still in the familiar Imperial City.
He suddenly looked at the fluttering mystic robe, realizing that this kasaya was a world of its own, long encompassing himself!
Though he realized it, the immense force also fell upon him.
The Joyful True Buddha reached out both palms, attempting to lift the stick, but his entire body bent sharply, violently kneeling on the ground, the immense power gap clearly caught him off guard.
Not until the old monk raised his head, meeting those calm, overlooking eyes, did he realize what had happened.
Before many eyes, Shen Yi had actually pinned him to kneel before him with a single stick!
The humiliation of this ordeal was more devastating than the physical pain.
The Joyful True Buddha became furious, both Buddha palms pushed forward, in that universal world, each finger turned into endless ridges, with palm lines like the abyssal trenches, as if the mountains were overturning, intending to subdue the young man before him fiercely.
However, before the palms could touch Shen Yi, a booming roar echoed in his ears.
The stone stick struck directly onto the old monk’s face, causing half of it to cave in, much like the Buddha head that had fallen in the Buddhist Temple, his eyes dull and expressionless.
