Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 476 - 272 Thousand-faced Buddha

At this moment, Chen Qing thought of even more.

The ascension of Emperor Earth and the Six Dao Ghosts required the Ancient Reincarnation Plate and the Heluo Books.

Ji Ru’s Light Butterfly’s ascension to the King Gu of the Void Dao needed him, or rather, the Void Gate as a witness.

So, if he wanted to ascend to godhood in the future, would he also need the witness or blessing of the two beings representing the Ancient Reincarnation Plate and the Heluo Books?

No, to ascend to godhood, one needed absolute control over the Ancient Reincarnation Plate and the Heluo Books.

Chen Qing was filled with countless thoughts; he began to understand what his Void Gate truly was.

The Void Gate should be something similar to the Ancient Reincarnation Plate and the Heluo Books.

It was not Gu, but original, the origin of the Void.

Having figured this out, Chen Qing asked, "Then, what does the Sword Travel Palace want?"

The woman raised her eyes somewhat strangely, clearly not expecting Chen Qing to think of these things, "The Sword Travel Palace must have a Void Master."

"Only with a Void Master can the Sword Travel Palace give birth to a true Void Sword Master."

"A Void Sword Master not recognized by a Void Master is incomplete."

"Thus, the Sword Travel Palace can have two gods watching over the world, intimidating the three thousand realms!"

Chen Qing roughly understood the meaning, which was to say that even if the Void Sword Master obtained the Divine Gu, it still required the assistance of the Void Master to have the Divine Gu of the Void Sword Master ascend.

At present, the Divine Gu of the Void Sword Master was just a First Transformation Divine Gu.

This was why the two gods of the Sword Travel Palace could coexist peacefully for a long time, only choosing to let the Void Master devour the Void Sword Master at the most critical moment. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Chen Qing said, "When you are ascending the Void Sword Master, if you can ensure no harm to Yu Qingshuang, I can join you."

The woman said, "This is not difficult; Yu Qingshuang is one of the candidates for the Sword Master. If you are willing to help nurture her, her candidacy will rise to the first position."

Yu Qingshuang and Ji Ru, who were somewhat unclear about why Chen Qing was asking, understood after the woman provided an answer.

Chen Qing continued, "You should understand, the previous Void Master had devoured the Void Sword Master. If He awakens again, He is very likely to choose to devour the current or future Void Sword Master, once again becoming a near-immortal existence."

"After all, the present or future Void Sword Master may not have much to do with this prior one."

"And moreover, such a god existing since the beginning of heaven and earth would have such formidable strength that it might be somewhat terrifying. Your current or future Void Sword Master might not be their match."

The woman said, "The Sect Hierarch also leans towards choosing you."

Chen Qing, however, speculated more from the woman’s words that the Sect Hierarch was not the true highest existence of a sect.

The highest existence of each great sect was a god.

But the Jiguang Sect was an existence similar to a god.

The Sect Hierarch was then the representative of the god in the mortal realm, responsible for carrying out the god’s will.

And now with all the Seven King Swords of the Sword Travel Palace present, it indicated no Harmonization into the Divine Gu.

In other words, the current Sword Travel Palace fundamentally had no so-called Void Sword Master, which meant there was no god!

The Jiguang Sect, relying on a god-like existence, still stands firm in the world, retaining its faithful believers.

But the Sword Travel Palace had completely detached from the main world, which could only mean there was absolutely no god in the Sword Travel Palace now!

The Void Sword Master of the Sword Travel Palace was nothing but a facade!

This means all current holders of the Seven Swords had the chance to become the Void Sword Master.

No matter who it was, they probably wouldn’t want this ancient presence to awaken.

Sword Travel Palace was meticulously using Chen Qing to chase the throne, acquiring the Six Dao Ghosts, wanting Chen Qing to ascend to godhood via the path of Life and Death Reincarnation, to become a multi-god-position existence like the Miao God.

Thus, he would not heavily focus on the Sword Travel Palace or devour the Void Sword Master.

Chen Qing was clearly more controllable than this ancient presence.

Chen Qing said, "Now, I understand."

"Everything else doesn’t matter."

"Having no previous Void Master is very important to you."

"I, becoming the new Void Master, is very important to you."

The woman said, "You do understand much because you are the Void Gate, knowing many secrets unknown to ordinary people."

Chen Qing said, "Do you really have the confidence to take me away from here?"

The woman said, "With all seven King Swords of the Sword Travel Palace present, it should not be difficult."

"In terms of understanding the Void Master, the Sword Travel Palace knows much more than you do."

Chen Qing stepped forward and pushed open the grand door. As the door opened, the sound of Buddhist chants suddenly arose!

Beyond the door was a vast and grand temple. On the temple’s walls and dome were numerous caves, each housing a different Buddha statue in meditation.

These Buddha statues, some with a flower in hand and a smile, some solemn and dignified, some laughing heartily, some with hands clasped together, some reciting sutras, some subduing dragons and tigers.

The Buddha statues varied in form, but their faces were the same.

The woman said, "Here is the temple of the Thousand-faced Buddha!"

She spoke while clutching a peach blossom tightly in her hand, and the Nine-headed Lion also seemed to be facing a formidable enemy.

Chen Qing asked, "Is there anything to be cautious of?"

The woman said, "Under the banner of the Void Master are three True Monarchs: the Xuanhe Monarch, who commands the Void River, the True Monarch Xuan Ku, who commands the Void Power, and the Thousand-faced Buddha, who commands the path of traversing myriad realms."

As the woman introduced them, a Buddha statue suddenly moved slightly. The golden cast Buddha statue stood up and bent down to salute Chen Qing, "Though endless ages have passed, I still believe that my master will not easily fall."
