Sign In Buddha’s Palm

Chapter 355: Everything Is Ready.

Edited by: Mochiusagi

The Void Passage, to be precise, was not a channel, but a guide or ‘coordinate’.

The void was vast and endless. There was no distinction between up, down, left, and right. If there was no some sort of guide or coordinate, even a Supreme Powerhouse might get lost. The distorting void in front was only possible in the second critical point in the recovery of the wave of vitality. The Human World would naturally lock onto a small world and create a ‘coordinate’ for it.

Therefore, Taoist Wan Wan advised Su Qin to wait until the Void Passage was completely formed before he considered entering.

Otherwise, if the Void Passage was still incomplete… Even if Su Qin could resist the space storms and debris, he would get lost.

“I know.”

Su Qin nodded slightly. He had the War God Temple as protection, even if he really did get lost in the depths of the void. He could use the War God Temple and his Incarnation to return to the Human World. However, that would definitely take a lot of time. Further, there was no telling how dangerous the depths of the void was.

Even in the ocean of vitality, there were Vitality Spirits. There might be special beings that were also wandering in the depths of the void and even in the outer void.

“Let’s see which small world it is.”

Su Qin was curious. He opened the [Eyes of Truth] and the [Celestial Eyes], looking into the depths of the distorted void.

Although the Void Passage had not yet been formed, it has begun to. Other Earth Immortals, including those at the Peak, might only know which small world was connected after the Void Passage was completely formed.

But Su Qin was able to see some clues with the [Eyes of Truth] and the [Celestial Eyes].

The [Eyes of Truth] could gain insight into all Qi as well as mechanisms of the Heavens and Earth. The [Celestial Eyes] could not only see through the Human World, but to the wider scope, including outside it.

However, due to Su Qin’s lack of strength, his current observation range of the [Eyes of Truth] was limited to the Human World.

[Hum~]!!

The distorted void in front of him gradually became blurred. In a trance, Su Qin’s eyes passed through the numerous layers of the void and suddenly landed on a small world exuding blue light.

Not waiting for Su Qin to observe it carefully.

[Clang~]!!!

The space shattered and he saw nine divine swords rise into the sky. A stalwart man, with nine divine swords on his back, raised his right hand, and one of the divine swords behind him slashed down.

[Crash~]

The void was cut through and countless space fragments broke off. Each of which could easily obliterate Peak Divine Ruin Phase Earth Immortals. But none of it could even approach the stalwart man.

“I, Jiu Li, open up the Nine Swords Realm today!” A cold and sharp voice sounded in Su Qin’s heart, seemingly to have passed through time and space.

Swish!

Su Qin closed his eyes.

“Jiu Li?”

After a while, Su Qin opened his eyes again and whispered to himself.

Through the [Eyes of Truth] as well as the [Celestial Eyes], Su Qin grasped the Void Passage that was taking shape at the moment and found some information about that small world.

“Do you know ‘Jiu Li’?” Su Qin asked, while looking at Fairy Tai Yin and Taoist Wan Wan.

The stalwart man named ‘Jiu Li’ was obviously a Supreme Powerhouse. Such a dazzling existence was definitely looked up to by all beings.

“Nine Swords?”

(Jiu Li = Nine Swords; this is a play on words)

Fairy Tai Yin and Taoist Wan Wan looked at each other, confused.

“Have you heard anything related?”

Su Qin raised his brows and pondered for a moment, before continuing to ask, “Have you ever heard of a Supreme Powerhouse called Jiu Li?”

As soon as he said this clearly, Fairy Tai Yin and Taoist Wan Wan’s faces changed slightly. They obviously thought of something.

“Is Master referring to ‘the’ Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li?” Fairy Tai Yin asked cautiously.

Su Qin’s eyes narrowed slightly and recalled the scene he saw earlier, where the stalwart man cut open the void with a divine sword, opening up the Nine Swords Realm. He nodded: “Yes. “

Su Qin realized that the name ‘Jiu Li’ was probably the real name of the stalwart man. Generally speaking, few people knew the real name of experts.

For example, Su Qin’s real name was known only to a few people in the Su Family. As for the vast majority of people in the world, they just called Su Qin as the ‘Tang Empire’s Celestial’ or the ‘World Honored One’ for Buddhists.

“Replying to Master, the ancient text of the Tai Yin Holy Land of Taiyin has records of the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li.”

Fairy Tai Yin thought for a moment, began organizing her words, and said: “Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li appeared in the beginning of the last Prosperous Era. He’s a Sword Dao Cultivator who broke the void with his sword.”

“Breaking the void with one’s sword…”

Su Qin’s eyes were calm, but his thoughts were undulating.

If one wanted to become a Supreme Powerhouse, one would need to break the void. But how do they break it? Through what?

In fact, from the Earth Immortal Realm, the path one would take had been divided; such as Fire Dao Earth Immortals, Thunder Dao Earth Immortals, Sword Dao and Primordial Spirit Dao, etc..

For example, the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea was a Fire Dao Earth Immortal.

If one wants to break the void, one must rely on their own power to do so. For example, a Fire Dao Earth Immortal would break the void with flames, a Thunder Dao Earth Immortal would use thunder and lightning, so on and so forth.

After the Earth Immortals break through the void, their paths would be merged with the Power of Space. All evils would be avoided in their gestures, and karma would not stick to them.

“Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li was very strong. At that time, there were two other Supreme Powerhouses in the same era as him, but these two Supreme Powerhouses were not his opponents at all. Even if they joined forces, they couldn’t reach his level.”

Fairy Tai Yin had a trace of awe in her tone.

“However, after 2,000 years, Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li disappeared. Some people speculated that he had gone to the outer void to pursue a higher realm.”

Fairy Tai Yin paused for a while, before continuing.

“Outer void?”

Su Qin raised his head slightly and looked at the sky.

Most of the Supreme Powerhouses born in the last Prosperous Era would eventually leave the Human World and go to the outer void.

Of course, there were also a few Supreme Powerhouses who would miss their home world and stay. For example, the founders of the six Holy Lands in the Immortal Gate. Although they were all Supreme Powerhouses, they had not left the world, and stayed in the Immortal Gate.

“Master, could it be that this Void Passage is connected to the small world opened up by Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li?” Fairy Tai Yin’s expression changed. It was as if she had thought of something, and tentatively asked.

“It could be.”

Su Qin nodded slightly.

According to the information that Su Qin grasped with the [Eyes of Truth], the small world connected by the twisted void not far away was the Nine Swords Realm, which was opened up by a Supreme Powerhouse called ‘Jiu Li’.

“The small world left by Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li…” Fairy Tai Yin and Taoist Wan Wan looked at each other, with their heartbeats accelerating.

This was a Supreme Powerhouse who had been invincible for 2,000 years. The small world left by such an existence would be enough to move even other Supreme Powerhouses, let alone them?

“You don’t need to think too much.”

“After so many years, even if there are any treasures left behind, they should have decayed.” Su Qin glanced at Fairy Tai Yin, and Taoist Wan Wan, shaking his head.

Even if it was a treasure, after tens of thousands of years, if it was not nurtured for a long time, it would gradually decay.

The era when Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li appeared was more than 50,000 years ago from the present. In such a long time, few things could survive.

But Su Qin didn’t care whether the treasures left by Jiu Li had decayed… It was because as long as this Nine Swords Realm still existed, it could become Su Qin’s Sign In place, which could continue to provide countless treasures.

“Yes.”

Fairy Tai Yin and Taoist Wan Wan immediately calmed down when they heard this.

Next, Su Qin, Fairy Tai Yin and Taoist Wan Wan returned to the palace.

After all, it would take at least a few months before the Void Passage would completely form. It was impossible for Su Qin to just keep guarding the area during this time.

However, before leaving, Su Qin casually set up a Great Array near the Void Passage. With Su Qin’s current array of attainments and level of strength, even if he just casually laid a Great Array, ordinary Earth Immortals wouldn’t be able to break it. Further, once the Great Array did get destroyed or touched, Su Qin would instantly know it.

After Su Qin returned to the palace, he did not enter seclusion again, but rather strolled around the palace.

“Time flies so fast…” Su Qin looked around, his eyes looking past the patrolling guards, Eunuchs, Maids, etc., and then fell on a group of ten-year-old children.

“Big Brother and Second Brother are really vigorous. In the past ten years, they have given birth to nearly 20 children.” Su Qin shook his head slightly as he thought.

In the Martial Path, the higher the Realm and the stronger the strength, the more difficult it was to give birth to children. This was also the reason why most of the Supreme Powerhouses were lonely.

Therefore, in order to pass on the bloodline of the Su Family, his father Su Shimin forcibly ordered the two brothers, Su Chenghao and Su Chengyu, to stop their Cultivation and make the Su Family’s legacy more prosperous.

Moreover, because of Su Qin, these children of the Su Family, within the palace, enjoyed royal treatment. Even higher than the children of the Li Family in terms of status.

After all, these juniors of the Su Family, even if they were not the children of Su Qin, had blood ties to Su Qin. So who would dare to provoke them in the entire palace?

Su Qin continued to stroll around the palace some more, before returning to the Right Spring Area in the East Palace.

“Let’s just wait for the Void Passage to take shape now.” Su Qin was leaning on a slightly rocking chair. On that same thought, he took out a milky white fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.

This fruit was a kind of spirit fruit that he obtained by Signing In at the War God Temple. It contained a trace of the Power of Space, allowing for people to feel the Power of Space a little more easily.

If there was a Peak Earth Immortal here at this moment, they would be stunned when they see this milky white fruit. After all, the Power of Space contained in this fruit could help them feel the Power of Space more clearly.

There were treasures similar to this milky white fruit in the major Holy Lands, but they were all extremely treasured. Even if it was the Holy Master using it, it must be approved by several Supreme Beings. Yet, Su Qin ate it in one mouthful like it was candy.

“The Power of Space?”

Su Qin’s eyes narrowed slightly. The moment he bit the milky white fruit, a stream of juice erupted in his mouth, bringing Su Qin’s mind into the vast void, feeling the Power of Space everywhere.

“It’s a pity that I’m currently not strong enough. Even if I feel the Power of Space, I can’t integrate with it.”

Su Qin shook his head slightly and began to think about his current level of strength.

“The cards I have currently are the [Buddha’s Palm], the [9 Notes Demonic Path], the [12 Divine Beast Figures], the [War God Records], the [Dark Abyss], etc…”

“The [Buddha’s Palm] is only in the second form. As for the [9 Notes Demonic Path], it is not an offensive technique and more like a Supreme Powerhouse’s exposition of the world’s avenues…. There’s also the [12 Divine Beast Figures], in which I have Cultivated the [Burning Sun Divine Art]. It’s still too far from completion. Then the [War God Records]…”

Su Qin’s thoughts turned and planned the future road.

It stood to reason that since Su Qin Cultivated the [Burning Sun Divine Art], even if he did not Cultivate it to the highest level, his body was naturally close to the Flame Element. He was the darling of the Fire Element.

In the future, if the [Burning Sun Divine Art] was Cultivated to the highest level, he could transform into a Three-legged Golden Crow. Shen Changqing would easily be able to burn the void with his flames and become a Supreme Powerhouse.

But Su Qin was a little hesitant. Among the Flame Dao, Thunder Dao, Sword Dao, etc., the most mysterious and unpredictable was the Primordial Spirit Dao. When he saw the white-haired man when he obtained the [Dark Abyss], his aura was as vast as the Heavens and Earth. Even the Supreme Powerhouse Jiu Li was inferior.

According to Su Qin’s guess, the white-haired man was a Primordial Dao Supreme Powerhouse, who left behind 3000 Illusion Domain to test future generations and become a direct disciple.

If there was a choice, Su Qin still preferred to Cultivate both the Flame Dao and the Primordial Spirit Dao; using the [Burning Sun Divine Art] to obtain the body of a Divine Beast and Cultivating the Primordial Spirit Dao so that his Primordial Spirit would be invincible. In this way, Su Qin had no direct weaknesses. Both his body and Primordial Spirit were both at the same level.

Although the Three-legged Golden Crow was of the Fire Element, as a beast it inherently had a powerful body. Not to mention that it was a Divine Beast.

“Forget it.”

“It’s too early to think about this.”

“It won’t be too late to make a decision once I enter the Divine Ruin Phase.”

While Su Qin was thinking, his heart suddenly moved. He looked outside the Right Spring Area.

There he saw Su Shimin, his brothers Su Chenghao and Su Chengyu had come.

“Father, First Brother and Second Brother.” Su Qin stepped forward and greeted with a smile.

“Qin’er.” Su Shimin looked overjoyed, hurriedly walking to Su Qin and greeted him.

“Father, First Brother and Second Brother, what’s the matter? Why the sudden visit?” Su Qin saw through Su Shimin’s hesitant expression at a glance, and asked with a smile.

Generally speaking, Su Shimin seldom asked Su Qin for anything, but now he came to Su Qin’s door in person.

“Qin’er, it’s not really a big deal.” Su Shimin glared at Su Chenghao and Su Chengyu, then looked at Su Qin, then said, “It’s your First Brother and Second Brother who wants you to do something, but they were embarrassed to say it and asked me…”
