(More to come later)

"The 176th type."

In the thick fog, Zhang Fusheng placed his hand on the body of a level-three star beast and gently removed its head.

He didn't try to capture these star beasts; instead, he killed them one by one.

He has his own plans and schemes.

"One hundred and two types of Grandmaster-level Level 1 Star Beasts, and sixty-two types of Innate-level Level 2 Star Beasts."

"And twelve Level 3 Star Beasts of the Heavenly Human Realm."

Zhang Fusheng clasped his hands together and sighed softly:

"Compassion, compassion!"

He was performing a ritual to help these star beasts find peace—he truly was performing a ritual, attempting to purify their fragmented souls and spare them the suffering of wandering the world.

"Several types of Level 4 Star Beasts exist on the World Plateau, but even if I could contend with them, how could I possibly kill a Level 4 Star Beast?"

Zhang Fusheng shook his head.

This is still too difficult; it's not impossible, but it's not worth it.

In the most ideal situation, using the Heaven-Opening Sword Qi and the All Things Are Empty could indeed potentially defeat and kill a Venerable-level being.

It would be too costly and would easily expose one's true strength and weaknesses, making it a losing proposition.

That's all for now.

Zhang Fusheng muttered to himself, turned and walked towards the direction of the Other Shore World, and as he approached, he once again used [All Things Are Empty].

He was briefly lost in the cycle of cause and effect and thought; the All Gods in the heavens lowered their gazes, but saw nothing.

Even memories of the World-Honored Tathagata are fading and disappearing.

It does not reside in the heart, nor does it linger in the spirit.

This characteristic, which transcends the limits of thought, gradually faded away only after the Buddha entered the Other Shore World.

In the sky.

The white-haired old man sat cross-legged, wisps of divine light cascading from his body, murmuring involuntarily:

"This is truly astonishing, transcending all reason. Just what kind of being was the World-Honored Tathagata his prime in ancient times?"

The sky was deathly silent; no one could provide an answer.

For a long time.

A deity whispered:

"What's the point of us sitting here? News has come from the capital that the World Honored One has been listed as the number one Evil God, the primary target for capture—but who dares to hunt him down?"

The All Gods looked at each other in bewilderment.

A terrifying being, seemingly from the old world; a powerful being whose true nature and depths are unknown.

They wouldn't be foolish enough to risk their lives to charge into battle for the Federation.

The white-haired old man paused for a moment, then glanced sideways:

"Old Kong, what do you think?"

Kong Shentong came to his senses and gently shook his head:

"The emergence of Gaotian City and the Other Shore World is an inevitable result. With the arrival of the Age of Great Strife the old world will be revived and descend upon us."

"The Federation can no longer remain a unified entity."

His clear voice echoed in the heavens, and many gods paled, never expecting that this person would dare to utter such 'treasonous' words in public.

Kong Shentong, however, remained calm and spoke in a low voice:

"As I said before, what we need to do is compete in this Age of Great Strife, seize as many Destiny Event as possible, and become as strong as possible."

"The Great Opportunity in the Other Shore World, and the possible large-scale Destiny Event, are no longer relevant to us."

"But it's always good to take a look; you can learn something from it."

The white-haired old man nodded, clearly agreeing with Kong Shentong's view, but couldn't help but say:

"Old Kong, what do you think the future of the Federation will be like?"

The All Gods, keeping their eyes to themselves and their minds at ease, dared not join in such conversations. The difference between the Venerable Ones, the Great Powers, and the Great Divine Ability User was frighteningly vast.

Such discussions can only be conducted by those Great Divine Ability User stand at the pinnacle of the Federation and are among the rulers of the Federation —at least on the surface.

Kong Shentong remained silent for a long time before speaking softly:

"We unearthed some old, mundane historical records, which contained descriptions, in essence, of the end of a dynasty, when numerous warlords rose up and vied for power."

"The deer here should represent a new 'dynasty'."

After a moment's pause, He sighed softly:

"Isn't the Federation currently in the 'late stages of a dynasty'? The three rebellious provinces, as well as Gaotian City and the Other Shore World, are just the beginning."

"Perhaps thousands of years, perhaps hundreds of years, or even within a few years."

"The Federation is about to fall apart."

The All Gods fell silent, and the Old Niu scrutinized the middle-aged man named Kong Shentong with great interest.

As for the white-haired old man, he simply sighed softly.

The old man muttered to himself:

"Age of Great Strife, an era of great chaos."

Kong Shentong:

"Past historical cycles show that every period of great turmoil is followed by a golden age."

The old man nodded silently, seemingly lost in thought.

Meanwhile, in the Other Shore World, outside the Kunlun Thatched Cottage.

Holding the Merit Brush in his hand, Zhang Fusheng waved it again and again, and in the vast Other Shore World, the mountains and rivers changed according to his will.

He relocated Chang'an Town and the Thousand Mile Zhaoling, to the edge of the world.

Gaotian City was completely relocated to the very center of the world, and its area increased more than tenfold.

The earth was rumbling.

In Gaotian City, people watched as the distant mountains grew ever more distant, witnessed the city's boundaries expand wildly, and saw brand-new, empty buildings spring up from the ground.

"Chang Le."

Zhang Fusheng gazed at the dramatically changed world and spoke calmly.

"Director, Venerable One, I am here." Lin Changle said cautiously as she saw the Venerable One, whose appearance was now completely different from before, World-Honored Tathagata around and gaze at her.

The World-Honored One said:

"The administrative divisions in Gaotian City need to be changed. The nine-district system should be abolished, and the area reduced to four blocks."

Lin Changle nodded quickly:

"I'm listening."

As Zhang Fusheng continued to alter the mountains and rivers of what was once the Chongyang World, now the Other Shore World, he said:

"The East is for the common people to live in peace, and all killing is forbidden in this region. The South is for various religions and sects to occupy, and all conflicts Gaotian Association."

"The northern part will be established as the headquarters for members of the Gaotian Association."

"The west is reserved for those who believe in me, and is the territory of Mount Ling."

Lin Changle nodded repeatedly, his expression serious, and he meticulously wrote it down, indicating that Zhang Fusheng was already nearing the end of the plan.

He cultivated two wondrous methods and Divine Ability: [Heavenly Calculation] and [Star Number].

Under his arrangement at this moment,

The mountains and rivers of the entire Other Shore World are arranged into a grand celestial array, based on Heavenly Calculation and the principle of "All Things Are Empty."

The great formation has no other use but one purpose: to enter the Other Shore World, where one's own heavenly secrets are blurred and difficult to calculate.

With Zhang Fusheng's current abilities, the Heavenly Secrets Formation can at least hinder the divinations of Great Divine Ability User.

Even a [True Saint] at the fourth level of the Divine Path, unless one is particularly skilled in divination, cannot deduce the secrets of the beings that enter!

As for the lakes and inland seas within the Other Shore World, Zhang Fusheng gathered them into 365 giant lakes, exactly the number of stars in the celestial sphere.

Then, using numerous rivers as interconnected pathways, a unique, incomplete, and infinitely weakened [Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array] is formed.

Or rather, the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array on Earth.

This formation can serve as a protective barrier, and it can also reflect the stars in the sky, drawing down killing light.

Anyone struck by a powerful figure will surely die.

As for Venerable-level beings

At the cost of exhausting himself three hundred times, Zhang Fusheng condensed another Heaven-Opening Sword Qi and merged it into the [Earthly Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array].

If necessary, it can strike down the killing starlight carrying the Heaven-Opening Sword Qi.

Even a venerable one could perish and vanish if he is not careful!

"There's still so much to decorate."

Zhang Fusheng murmured to himself, yet felt a pang of regret, realizing that he had ultimately not Ascension to Divinity and that his abilities were limited.

If Ascension to Divinity, one can perfectly integrate the Great Dao of Karma into the two formations, and truly take away the Heaven and Earth Chessboard.

At that time, the Heaven and Earth Chessboard will be integrated into the Other Shore World.

What if an enemy enters?

Within the killing light, endless causal information washed down, and even the Venerable One was likely to die ten times, while the Great Power would probably only survive nine out of ten times!

This is already the limit of what I can do.

"Go ahead and do your work," Zhang Fusheng casually instructed, and was about to return to his thatched hut.

Lin Changle spoke cautiously:

"World Honored One."

The World-Honored One then stopped.

Lin Changle took a deep breath:

"The fingerprint results you asked me to compare earlier."

Zhang Fusheng was taken aback at first, then remembered that such a thing had indeed happened before.

When he, Li Yiyi, and Luo Cheng arrived at Chongyang World by plane, they were attacked.

The perpetrator's methods were bizarre, yet fingerprints were left on the aircraft and the boulder used for throwing.

"Have you found out whose it is?" Zhang Fusheng asked calmly, no longer caring much about such trivial matters.

"The process was somewhat complicated. Originally, it wouldn't have been possible to find out, as the attackers came from other provinces. However, Councilor Li Guoquan helped by accessing the Federation database."

Lin Changle took out his phone, pulled up the file, and handed it over.

Zhang Fusheng glanced down at it and was slightly taken aback.

The owner of this file looked very familiar to him— Li Xiuyuan.

Zhang Fusheng's expression turned serious as he took the item and examined it carefully.

[Li Xiuyuan, male, 23 years old, son-in-law of the Qinghe Cui Clan, disappeared more than half a year ago, reappeared a month ago, and his personality has changed drastically.]

[Note: There is a low probability that this person may be a cult member]

[Note 2: There is a low probability that the body has been possessed by Evil God; it has been placed on the Level 2 watchlist.]

Zhang Fusheng browsed through the file information, a solemn expression appearing on his face.

He disappeared for six months, his personality changed drastically, and he only reappeared a month ago.

In other words, Li Xiuyuan was missing at the time of the attack.

Zhang Fusheng silently traced the cause and effect, finding the consequence of the attack and pushing it back to its cause.

What I could see was a blur.

He frowned, thought for a moment, closed his eyes, and quietly merged the [Fiery Golden Eyes] with himself.

Moment.

Suddenly, his eyes felt a burning heat, a scalding pain that struck straight to his Soul Spirit. Even Zhang Fusheng, in his current state, couldn't help but let out a muffled groan!

Time passed little by little.

After an incense stick has burned.

Zhang Fusheng could clearly feel a special rhythm emanating from his eyes and suddenly spreading throughout his entire body.

With the addition of Fiery Golden Eyes, more than just the eyes are changed.

A burning, searing sensation spread throughout my body at that moment.

After a long while.

A gentle breeze blew across the mountaintop, and Lin Changle, who was standing cautiously to the side, saw the World Honored One, who seemed to be deep in thought with his eyes closed, slowly open his eyes.

Lin Changle suddenly lost her focus, staring intently into those eyes.

There was no fire or gold in his eyes, only a bottomless chaos, and the surrounding light seemed to 'collapse' towards those eyes.

A moment later,

These two dense, chaotic clumps suddenly melted apart, revealing a crimson-gold color, which then grew thicker and thicker!

Until it transformed into two molten golden seas!

Lin Changle subconsciously took several steps back, trembling involuntarily, her breathing becoming heavy.

As for Zhang Fusheng...

He stood silently, letting the two golden seas fill his eyes; even the once Great Sun Golden Lamp now appeared blurred.

The light of the golden lamps appeared dim in the sea of gold.

Another instant passed,

A blazing golden light, like a tangible flame, burst forth from his eyes!

The bursting forth golden light also seemed to contain wisps of flowing rosy Rosy Clouds —just like the Six Ding Divine Fire!

Zhang Fusheng was horrified. He could clearly feel that the golden light was everywhere; he had only subconsciously looked up.

The golden light was about to pierce through to Different Dimension, where it would stir up the Sea of Clouds!

But similarly.

The energy consumption is terrifyingly high; even if it's not quite at the state of All Things Are Empty, it's not far off!

Zhang Fusheng immediately closed his eyes, concealing his [Fiery Golden Eyes].

"These eyes."

He murmured to himself, realizing that this was not a simple supernatural Divine Ability of sight; these eyes themselves were an unparalleled weapon of attack!

"Just as the All Things Are Empty is merely the norm for the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, the Fiery Golden Eyes are also just the 'norm' for the Great Sage Equal to Heaven."

"But for me, the cost of activating them was astonishingly high!"

Zhang Fusheng closed his eyes and quietly sensed those eyes, and could perceive a profound and boundless power hidden within Fiery Golden Eyes.

He recalled the birth of the stone monkey in the mythology; the moment it was born, the moment it opened its eyes...

Two golden beams shot into his eyes, piercing the heavens—those two golden beams even directly rushed up to the Heavenly Court and the Miro Heavenly Palace!

But since then, monkeys have never displayed similar Divine Ability in myths and legends.

"In the story, is the golden flames of the Shechong Dou Mansion the same as the vast power hidden deep within the Fiery Golden Eyes of Truth?"

Zhang Fusheng's mind raced, but he only had a vague guess.

He calmed himself down, deliberately withdrew his Fiery Golden Eyes, and then opened them again. This time, the golden sea was no longer rushing out.

But the world was still different in his eyes.

The World Plateau is no obstacle at all; looking up, even as it recedes, one can still vaguely glimpse the endless expanse of another Different Dimension.

It's just too far away to see clearly.

If one lowers their head, their gaze can penetrate the vast earth, pierce through the cosmos, and reach the void beyond the Great Universe.

There, Zhang Fusheng saw one universe and ancient realm after another floating in the vast void!

This was only the moment when their Fiery Golden Eyes was being tempered.

This was still before Zhang Fusheng could fully activate those eyes.

He even doubted whether the monkey had actually activated those eyes.

"Fiery Golden Eyes"

Zhang Fusheng murmured to himself, then a huge question arose in his mind: if the Fiery Golden Eyes contained such immense and incredible power...

Why are there two pairs?

He received a pair from the Myriad Gods Cult.

But there is another pair, hidden within the Destiny Event —waiting for Chen Nuanyu's heart to nurture a certain Western Sect Venerable for forty-nine days.

That Western Sect master will then gain another pair of Fiery Golden Eyes!

Doubts arose, but Zhang Fusheng quickly suppressed them.

He once again examined the causes and consequences of his initial attack, tracing back to the source of the problem.

This time,

The hazy mist surrounding cause and effect could no longer obscure Zhang Fusheng's vision.

He saw,

The attacker at that time did indeed resemble Li Xiuyuan; in the blurry image, it seemed as if the attacker had plunged his hand into a giant painting.

Zhang Fusheng could even see that the content of the scroll was 'continuing,' like a movie screen, and the scene within it was that airplane from back then.

He saw,

Li Xiuyuan reached into the painting, first grabbing the airplane and shaking it, then picking up a stone from the ground and throwing it at the airplane!

Just like what happened back then.

"Eccentric."

In Zhang Fusheng's eyes, the floating golden sea and the Great Sun Golden Lamp reflected intricate causal star lines, which were beyond comprehension.

"A painting reveals a real world; he reaches into the painting as if he were the creator, freely manipulating everything within it."

"What is that scroll?"

Zhang Fusheng realized that it was definitely a Supreme Treasure, perhaps famous in mythology.

He then carefully observed the ' Li Xiuyuan.

This person had a very youthful appearance, completely different from the Li Xiuyuan I had seen before!

There are two people.

Zhang Fusheng concluded.

The physical bodies may be the same, but what lies inside them is not.

So.

"Li Xiuyuan, someone else took his place?"

"Then, who is Li Xiuyuan now?"

As his thoughts raced, the golden sea in Zhang Fusheng's eyes gradually dimmed, returning to normal.

He cleansed Lin Changle's body, even using his own true blood to forge a heaven-reaching foundation for her.

From a martial artist, he became a grandmaster in the blink of an eye!

"Consider this fingerprint incident Stance Training your part."

Zhang Fusheng calmly gave his account, watched Lin Changle descend the mountain, and then strode into the thatched hut.

"Nu".

Zhang Fusheng called out, and Nuwa, who was hovering on the ground, opened her eyes in confusion:

"Zhang Fusheng, what's wrong?"

Nuwa asked with pure innocence.

"Since you know what people know, and see what people see, do you know what this thing is?"

Zhang Fusheng spoke gently, his eyes reflecting a divine light, revealing a past scene that traced back the cause and effect.

Nuwa looked at the illusory scene and saw the scroll within it.

She nodded:

"Know."

Zhang Fusheng's eyes suddenly lit up. He really knew him?

Before he could ask a question, he heard Nuwa continue:

"However, I did not come to know it from the knowledge [of people] told me; I knew it simply by seeing it—as if I were supposed to know it."

Zhang Fusheng was taken aback, not quite understanding what Wa said, and subconsciously asked:

"What is it?"

Nuwa spoke softly:

"I saw it, and I knew it naturally."

"It's called the Mountain River Society and Country Diagram '."

Zhang Fusheng's eyes widened in surprise.
