Desiring to Become the Lord of Reincarnation

And at this moment.

"Wrong..."

Deep within the starry sky, the Heavenly Pole Divine King, who was anxiously waiting, suddenly changed his expression.

"Xuan Yi and Jin Chi's Soul Lamp... actually disappeared?!"

He exclaimed in horror!

Upon hearing this, Liaochen Bodhisattva was also surprised and said:

"Disappear?!"

The Soul Lamp is the vessel to which a cultivator's life force resides.

The Soul Lamp burning eternally signifies that life is immortal.

When the Soul Lamp goes out, it signifies the death of its master.

But why did it disappear without a trace?

I've never heard of such a thing before.

"I've been watching their Soul Lamp closely... but I never noticed how they disappeared..."

The Heavenly Pole Divine King was somewhat stunned.

Could it be that someone even stronger than him has intervened?

Otherwise, who could take the Soul Lamp from him silently? Impossible!

"The Soul Lamp has disappeared... Could it be... that Buddha's prophecy has come true?!"

A look of wild joy suddenly flashed across the face of Liaochen Bodhisattva.

Suddenly, another stone appeared in his hand!

The stone looked dull and gray, as if it had been taken out of rotten water.

It looks exactly the same as the "Undying Stone" that he gave to Dao Wuyi.

At this moment, the stone was cracked all over!

Then... it turned into dust!

Completely disappeared.

"What... is going on?"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King spoke.

"This stone can sense the one on Dao Wuyi's body."

Liaochen's eyes were filled with joy as he said:

"The two stones share the same fate and feelings. The shattering of this one means that the one on Dao Wuyi's body has also been completely destroyed!"

"The stone is indeed destroyed! Hahaha, the stone is indeed destroyed! Buddha was right after all!"

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Pole Divine King was dumbfounded. Had this monk gone mad?

The Undying Stone shattered, meaning Dao Wuyi was too late, and yet he was still laughing?

"Liaochen Bodhisattva... what exactly is going on?"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King couldn't help but ask:

"The Undying Stone, hailed as a miraculous life-saving stone, capable of preserving the soul, how could it have been destroyed by someone..."

Upon hearing this, Liaochen smiled and said:

"The God-King is unaware that the stone Dao Wuyi brought was not some kind of Undying Stone, nor could it save Dao Wuyi's life..."

"The reason I sent him with that stone was simply to verify some of the Buddha's conjectures and prophecies."

The Heavenly Pole Divine King was immediately stunned.

Liaochen instructed Dao Wuyi to take the so-called Undying Stone...

Was it not for saving Dao Wuyi at all?

But it was merely a test... a test of some kind of conjecture?

A chill ran through him instantly. Dao Wuyi and he... both been used by the other side?

The other party's involvement in the Heavenly Machine Grand Array... clearly has ulterior motives!

Buddhist religion... how insidious!

"What... what are you looking for?!"

He couldn't help but speak angrily.

Liaochen smiled slightly and said:

"The God-King is a destined one, so telling you may be harmless. What Buddha is seeking is..."

"Reincarnation!"

Reincarnation!

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Pole Divine King froze.

"You came to participate in the Heavenly Machine Grand Array, from beginning to end, in search of reincarnation?"

His face was filled with disbelief!

Because there is no such thing as reincarnation... Why would the Vatican go to such lengths for such a vague and unfounded legend?

Liaochen laughed:

"Indeed, reincarnation!"

"Previously, I told the God King about the story of the monkey, but what I didn't mention was that there is another part to the story of the monkey."

"Do you know that the monkey... besides causing havoc in the divine realm, originally intended to do something else?"

"Make havoc in the underworld and alter the Book of Life and Death!"

"Unfortunately, the monkey searched high and low, but found neither the so-called underworld nor the so-called cycle of reincarnation..."

As he spoke, he looked on with longing and said:

High Antiquity records state, "When yellow smoke rises, the beacon fires cease; when reincarnation ends, the realm of ghosts empties..."

"Does the God-King still remember the second half of the sentence?"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King's expression was extremely solemn as he said:

"He who controls reincarnation will live forever and be revered by all under heaven!"

This is about reincarnation, the oldest record, a myth, a legend!

Yellow smoke rises, war ceases; reincarnation begins, the realm of demons vanishes... He who controls reincarnation is immortal and revered by all ages!

Why are even the most important figures in the Imperial Court so obsessed with reincarnation, even to the point of leaving the Imperial Court?

It's because of this saying... "He who controls reincarnation is immortal and revered by all ages!"

In countless legends, reincarnation is the only way for the Yang Realm to reach eternity.

"So the Western Brahma Sect... also covets reincarnation?!"

Only then did the Heavenly Pole Divine King realize the true scheme of the Western Brahma Sect.

Having attained reincarnation, the Western Paradise will be eternal!

"But... what does your participation in the Heavenly Machine Grand Array have to do with reincarnation?"

"Everything about reincarnation is nothing but a vague and illusory legend. Know that reincarnation does not exist!"

Liaochen:

"God King, you are wrong. True reincarnation does not cease to exist, but rather, it has existed for countless ages, and the time for reincarnation to occur has not yet come."

"And in this life, Buddha has already foreseen that reincarnation will occur..."

The Heavenly Pole Divine King was even more shocked; was reincarnation about to occur?!

What does this mean?

There is no underworld in this world, and no reincarnation throughout eternity... This is the consensus of the entire Yang Realm, as well as the great figures of the Imperial Court.

Now... the Western Brahma Sect has actually predicted that reincarnation is about to occur...

If that were the case... the entire order of the Yang Realm... would be rewritten!

Liaochen continued, "Does the God King know the origin of the stone that Dao Wuyi brought with him?"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King shook his head.

"In the Ghost Realm, the ultimate giants once created a replica of the Reincarnation Bridge. The stone that Dao Wuyi brought was one that fell from that Reincarnation Bridge."

Liaochen said leisurely:

"The Reincarnation Bridge in the Ghost Realm, though illusory and imitation... possesses certain characteristics of reincarnation. Unless one encounters true reincarnation, it will be indestructible for countless eons!"

"Now that the stone is destroyed, how can this humble monk not be overjoyed? Hehe."

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Pole Divine King felt a chill run down his spine!

The Western Brahma Sect... has played a very grand game.

They deduced that reincarnation was about to occur, and, moreover, they successfully located the Forty-Ninth Star Domain!

Then, by using the Heavenly Machine Grand Array, Dao Wuyi was used as a pawn.

The so-called Undying Stone... was obtained from the Ghostly Reincarnation Bridge.

Using fake reincarnation stones...

Go and test the true cycle of reincarnation!

This is the true purpose of the Western Brahma Sect!

They... succeeded.

"The Western Brahma Sect... such a deep scheme!"

After fully realizing the truth, the Heavenly Pole Divine King felt an unparalleled sense of dread.

Sure enough, cooperating with this group of bald monks was like asking a tiger for its skin; one wrong move and you'd be played to death!

Dao Wuyi was such a shrewd person, yet he still became a pawn of the Buddhist sect.

However, he also sensed that... the ancient mystery seemed to be slowly being unveiled as the Buddhist teachings unfolded!

Reincarnation... might really exist.

... If this gets out, it will definitely cause a massive tsunami that shakes the entire Yang Realm.

At that time, the world's ultimate giants will probably fight to the death.

Because reincarnation represents eternal hope.

The Heavenly Pole Divine King, "Since that's the case... why don't you take control of reincarnation?"

"Because the cycle of reincarnation is currently hidden and invisible to ordinary people, many things still need to be done before it can be fully brought into the world."

Liaochen said leisurely:

"When the yellow smoke rises, the flames of war subside; when reincarnation begins, the realm of ghosts vanishes... This is a prophecy about reincarnation, and also the key to its arrival!"

"When war rages across the world, the legendary yellow smoke will appear; when evil spirits wail throughout the realms, the cycle of reincarnation will begin."

"And the Lord of Reincarnation will be born at that very moment."

"My Buddha... will deliver all sentient beings from suffering amidst blood and fire, and become the Lord of Reincarnation!"

Upon hearing these words, the Heavenly Pole Divine King was stunned.

He felt a chill run through his entire body!

The Western Brahma Sect is simply insane...

What they mean is...

To bring about reincarnation...

Chaos is needed across all realms, war is needed to rage, and the world is needed to be overrun with demons!

Moreover, the Buddha of the Western Brahma Sect intends to take advantage of the chaos to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

"You... what you're doing will bring immeasurable calamity to the Yang Realm!"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King couldn't help but speak.

With hands clasped together and a solemn expression, he said:

"May Buddha have mercy; this is the inevitable path for all living beings."

"Only after great chaos can prosperity and flourishing be achieved."

"When the Buddha enters the cycle of reincarnation, peace will prevail for all generations, and all worlds will be at peace. This is great compassion and great merit."

The Heavenly Pole Divine King said in a trembling voice:

"Where will this great chaos begin?"

Liaochen smiled slightly and said:

"God King, you should have guessed it."

"The stone that Dao Wuyi brought was obtained from the Ghost Realm Reincarnation Bridge."

"That stone has been destroyed; only a humble monk and a powerful figure in the Ghost Realm would know this..."

He said leisurely:

"The desire for reincarnation is unimaginable in the entire Ghost Realm... When they discover that true reincarnation actually exists in this world... what do you think they will do?"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King's hands and feet turned to ice, and he exclaimed, "A war between gods and demons!"

The realm of ghosts will inevitably seek reincarnation.

The fact that the Reincarnation Land is located in the Forty-Ninth Star Domain means that the Ghost Realm will inevitably attack the Forty-Ninth Star Domain!

When that time comes, the Divine Realm will absolutely not stand idly by...

This great war... is the one that the Western Brahma Sect wants to spread across all realms and fill the human world with demons!

"You... you have quite the audacity, actually scheming against the Divine Realm and the Ghost Realm, using them as stepping stones for your entry into the cycle of reincarnation!"

The Heavenly Pole Divine King couldn't help but exclaim;

"Aren't you afraid I'll immediately inform the Imperial Court?!"

Liaochen laughed and said:

Why did the God-King deploy the Heavenly Machine Grand Array and painstakingly pursue the traces of the Creation Supreme Being?

"Isn't it precisely to break through to the God-King level and take it a step further?"

As he spoke, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed, and a ball of light appeared in front of the Heavenly Pole Divine King.

"This is the supreme faith of my Brahma religion, and it can help the God-King open that door."

"After this is accomplished, I, the Buddha, will control reincarnation and may grant the God-King a Buddha position. At that time, the God-King can choose between the Imperial Court and the Western Paradise."

This is blatant bribery.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Pole Divine King hesitated!

The supreme teachings of Buddhism...

How could he not be tempted!

However, he feared that Buddhism, like Dao Wuyi, could turn him into a pawn.

"God King, you have no choice."

"As I have said before, even though you and I are gods or bodhisattvas, we are merely pebbles thrown into the river of cause and effect."

Liaochen clasped his hands together, his face filled with great compassion.

The Heavenly Pole Divine King remained silent for a very long time before accepting the ball of light.

"Can the Ghost Realm sense the exact location of the Forty-Ninth Star Domain?"

Before leaving, the Heavenly Pole Divine King asked a question.

Liaochen said:

"No, the Ghost Realm and the Divine Realm are separated by an endless sea of stars; they wouldn't be that precise."

"But that doesn't matter anymore, they will attack all nine thousand star domains under the jurisdiction of the entire God Realm simultaneously."

"Because, even the most supreme being has no choice when faced with reincarnation."

And at this moment.

Ding Star Realm.

The Heavenly Darkness Ghost Lord, along with the Hungry Ghost and others, absorbed all the remaining Netherworld death energy in this realm!

"My teeth have finally grown back!"

"It feels so good to be able to speak without misunderstandings!"

A group of ghosts, all were overjoyed and excited.

"Let's go back to the Great Ruin Realm and settle the score!"

Heavenly Darkness also spoke up directly.

His face was full of anticipation; the thought of handing in his dental work gave him a strange sense of accomplishment!

"Not good..."

At this moment, Gui Qi's expression suddenly changed, and he took out a blood-red flag the size of a palm.

The flag, like a ghost, now gleamed with a chilling light.

This... is the Heavenly Darkness Command Flag of the Heavenly Darkness Ghost Lord!

In the Ghost Realm, anyone who reaches the Ghost Lord Realm will possess a command flag symbolizing their status.

This command flag also serves another purpose.

When war comes... the giants of the Ghost Realm will issue their battle orders through battle flags!

"The Ghost Realm... has been ravaged by war?!"

"What's going on... The Ghost Realm has been peaceful for many years... Why has war suddenly broken out?"

The ghosts were astonished.

As for the Heavenly Darkness Ghost Lord, he reached out and the battle flag was already in his hand.

In an instant, he understood the message within the battle flag.

"The Ghost Realm... the army has set off..."

"They... declared war on the realm of the gods..."

The Heavenly Darkness Ghost Lord spoke, somewhat lost in thought.
