Chapter 306 The Other Shore and Everyone Like a Dragon
Xu Qing thought to himself, this is precisely the most unique aspect of the Yangshen World.
Realm level is never the absolute standard for measuring strength. The strength of one's soul, the convergence of faith, the fortune of humanity, and the cultivator's own insights can all influence the power of one's strength.
Since Hong Yi obtained the "Past Amitabha Sutra" as a foundation in his early years, his spiritual foundation was different from that of ordinary people. Later, he broke out of the framework of his predecessors and created the "I Ching", integrating the essence of various schools of thought. His spiritual power has always been one level higher than that of the strong at the same level.
In the original story, the faith of just two hundred million warriors and three hundred immortals was enough to support Hong Yi in breaking through the shackles after nine tribulations, ascending to the level of a Yang God, becoming connected with heaven and earth, and becoming the spiritual leader of all living beings, with boundless wisdom and boundless blessings.
The number of the divine soul and thoughts transformed from 129,610 to 480 million.
But Hong Yi is different now. He not only obtained the elixirs from the Zhutian Pavilion, which can solidify the foundation of the common people and accelerate their cultivation, but also personally taught them the mysteries of the Book of Changes day and night, so that all people in the world can truly read, understand the meaning of the classics, and become wise and enlightened, making everyone in the world a gentleman.
Hundreds of thousands of immortals, billions of ghost immortals, and martial saints—this immense power of faith, like a surging ocean, converged into his soul day and night.
As the last sage after the Middle Ages, and also the most powerful among all the sages of the Hundred Schools of Thought, he embodied the destiny of heaven and earth and the consensus of humanity.
With the added blessing of faith far exceeding that of the original work, even though his realm remained at the ninth tribulation, his divine soul power had already broken through the limit. He forcefully unleashed a terrifying combat power at the level of a second-order Chaos Ruler while only at the seventh-order realm, truly surpassing the Yang God and standing above the Heavenly Dao.
"Thanks to the Pavilion Master, if it weren't for your help, how could I have accomplished such a transformation of the world in just one year?" Hong Yi said with a smile.
Hong Yi smiled and nodded, his eyes filled with compassion for the common people.
"Since receiving the hundred billion Wood Crystals from the Pavilion Master, I have distributed all these rare and precious materials that can replenish blood and enhance thinking, regardless of status, so that everyone can have some."
"Mu Yajing solidifies the foundation, the elixir accelerates cultivation, and with the help of the profound mysteries of the Book of Changes that I personally teach day and night, all the people under heaven have long since escaped ignorance, and everyone can read and understand the meaning of the classics, and are as wise and enlightened as gentlemen."
He changed the subject, his tone becoming more turbulent.
"More importantly, I borrowed the immense power of faith from the billions of ghost immortals and hundreds of thousands of human immortals to condense countless future masters." Now, in this vast world, almost every village of a hundred or so people, every settlement, has a future master presiding over it, personally transmitting the essence of the I Ching and explaining countless mysteries of the operation of the Heavenly Dao and the survival of humanity.
"The world today is no longer what it used to be."
Hong Yi's voice carried a sense of expansiveness, as if looking down upon all living beings.
"Everyone can become a ghost immortal, and human immortals are everywhere. There are countless cultivators who have undergone five or six tribulations of lightning. Even ordinary people possess the ability to tear through space and traverse heaven and earth."
"The aristocratic families, emperors, kings, dukes, and ministers are long gone. There is no longer a court, nor any institution capable of restraining the people."
"Everyone is a gentleman, everyone understands wisdom, everyone is humble and loving, upright and righteous."
He looked up at Xu Qing, his eyes flashing with determination: "This scene has long surpassed the Heavenly Court of the ancient Heavenly Emperor. Although the Heavenly Court was prosperous in the past, only a few gods enjoyed immortality, while hundreds of millions of people were still struggling in suffering."
"Now, every inhabited place in my vast world is a magnificent palace, filled with spiritual energy, where everyone lives in peace and prosperity, and continues their cultivation. Its splendor far surpasses that of ancient times."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Hong Yi shook his head slightly, his tone carrying a hint of dissatisfaction: "But this is not enough at all."
"What about the ancient sage emperors? What about the hundred sage philosophers?"
"The philosophers stripped the Holy Emperor of his four titles: integrity, wisdom, courage, and benevolence. They returned these to the people, but although the common people possess wisdom, they are still trapped in the cycle of birth and death. Although they have methods of cultivation, they cannot resist the constraints of the Heavenly Way, and ultimately they are still one step away from true freedom."
"What I want to create is never a new immortal realm."
"What I want is a world where everyone can reach the other side!"
"Everyone will reach the other shore, free from birth and death, like a dragon, displaying their talents without shackles; all living beings will attain wisdom and longevity, gain enlightenment, and comprehend the essence of the Great Dao, no longer bound by the Dao, no longer troubled by life and death!"
Xu Qing could see that Hong Yi's eyes were burning with determination, as if he had already entered that ideal world.
"This is the ultimate goal that I, Hong Yi, have sought to achieve by exhausting my divine soul and gathering my faith."
Xu Qing nodded upon hearing this.
"Yi Zi is right. What does it matter if it's the Immortal Realm or the Great Thousand Worlds? The world goes through a cycle of 129,600 years. This is the principle of the cycle of heaven and earth, and this is precisely the time of the final tribulation."
"Without transcendence, one is ultimately reduced to dust. No matter how glorious the celestial realm or earthly paradise may be, it will all be destroyed."
Xu Qing knew just how difficult the ideas Hong Yi was talking about really were.
The number of one cycle, 129,600 years, is the limit of the Yangshen world, which no one can transcend.
Even the Yang God, even those who have shattered the void, or even those who have surpassed the Yang God True Immortal and shattered the void, and have attained the same proof of the two paths of heaven and earth, even those ancient holy emperors, the Daoist of Creation, the Emperor of Longevity, the Immortal God King, these most powerful beings in heaven and earth, cannot escape this fate.
Heaven and earth will be destroyed; without transcendence, all is nothing.
When each cycle of a number comes to an end, the world undergoes different destructions, such as annihilation, explosion, or freezing into deathly silence.
Legend has it that the ancient Holy Emperor, "Hong," was the only one to ascend the Holy Emperor's throne by shattering the vacuum.
His ultimate divine power, "Honglie Flame," is a true fire that originated in the previous era when heaven and earth perished. It can burn stone when it encounters stone, gas when it encounters gas, and water when it encounters water. It can burn anything, whether it is metal, wood, water, fire, earth, or even lightning and darkness.
The flames produced during the final explosion of the universe are of this kind, which can be said to transcend the realm of mere flames.
Back then, it was with this supernatural power that "Hong" subdued heaven and earth and sat on the supreme throne that ruled the universe.
Even someone as powerful as him could only be swallowed up by the long river of time.
Even now, Hong Yi, relying on the faith of billions of immortals and the fortune of humanity, controls the Heavenly Dao. With every thought, he can create a Middle Thousand World. His power even surpasses that of the Yang God, and even surpasses that of the Longevity Emperor and the Creation Daoist who have attained the dual enlightenment of Heaven and Earth.
But even now, he hasn't reached the other shore, or even gotten close.
To achieve the ideal of all people in the world, that everyone in the universe is like a dragon, transcends all limitations, and reaches the other shore, no amount of power would be enough.
