Fruition Status Collision
As soon as Qi Yun finished speaking, his mind was already set on something.
In the the Unseen, the shattered sky above the surrounding Spirit Mountain, the surging Buddhist and Daoist light, and the True Lord and Bodhisattvas watching the battle intently in the distance—
Everything was like a reflection in water, suddenly rippled, blurred, and faded as a pebble was thrown into it.
In a daze, Qi Yun and the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva opposite him were no longer under that broken Xuanhuang.
They stepped into another realm.
A bizarre and fantastical place, defying all conventional logic.
Here, there are no ups and downs, no past or present; only the most essential "Tao" and "Li" are manifesting and flowing.
It's roaring.
The crimson fire elemental source spread its wings like countless phoenixes, burning away the void; the azure wind elemental source transformed into a heaven-reaching tornado, tearing apart chaos; the heavy earth elemental source condensed into endless mountain phantoms, rising and falling; the deep blue water elemental source converged into a boundless Vast Sea, its tides rising and falling—
Earth, fire, wind, and water intertwine Lunzhuan, evolving the world's most primitive prototype and its ultimate end.
The sounds of wind, fire, and thunder are the sounds of the Tao; the flow of time is the pulse of life.
This place, higher than the [Foundation Establishment Heaven] where Foundation Establishment True Person entrust their Dao Foundation, is the root of heaven and earth, the source of the Great Dao, and the beginning and end of the birth and cessation of all laws—[All Wonders Heaven]!
It is also a place where [the Fruition Status] hangs high!
Beneath their feet, an indescribably wide and ancient gray river surged silently yet irresistibly forward.
[The Heaven and Earth's Long River of Time!]
This river flows through eternity, nourishing all things, yet also washing away and eroding everything.
The scene above the long river is magnificent and awe-inspiring.
The lowest layer is filled with countless points of light, like stars in a summer night, some bright, some dim, some large, some small, each with a different color and a distinct aura.
Those are the Fate Dao foundations of countless Foundation Establishment True Person in the Xuanhuang Home Realm, suspended high above the [Heaven and Earth's Long River of Time].
The Dao Foundation hangs above the river of time, its light flickering with the waves, most of it as faint as fireflies, always at risk of being dampened and dimmed by the spray.
And above these "stars".
In the higher and more stable "sky dome," there are magnificent beings that are as solid as a physical object, shining brightly and radiating a completely different and vast Daoist charm!
Some resemble crystal pagodas, layer upon layer, imbued with boundless compassionate chants, with countless golden threads of vows hanging down, connecting to numerous pale golden Foundation Establishment points below.
Some are like solitary, proud sword peaks, piercing straight into the void, their sharp aura cutting through all other strange Daoist charms around them, with only a few equally sharp "threads" connecting them to the ground below.
Some resembled vortexes in a starry sea, slowly rotating, swallowing light and inspiration, exuding an eerie tranquility.
Some are like pools of blood from the Yellow Springs, churning with sin and death, extending countless dark red tentacles that suck away souls.
These are precisely the [Fruition Status] that True Lord and Bodhisattvas have condensed throughout their lives, hanging high above the Long River of Time!
Compared to the "stars" below that drift with the tide.
These [Fruition Status] are like the sun and moon hanging in the night sky, shining brightly and possessing their own unique Daoist charm. They illuminate their respective "starry skies" below and send down threads of "cause and effect," connecting with their followers and inheritors to form a stable system.
[Fruition Status] is as stable as a rock, holding the destiny and fortune of this lineage. No matter how the Long River of Time rushes and washes over us, I remain unmoved, radiating an eternal, supreme, and majestic majesty that surpasses all living beings.
The mere sight of it is enough to make Divine Soul tremble, as if gazing upon insurmountable monuments of the great way.
At this moment, in this [All Wonders Heaven] that only the most outstanding beings can glimpse, Qi Yun and the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva's "figures" stand above the rushing Long River of Time, above which lies the Forest of Fruition Status that shines as brightly as the sun and moon.
The will of the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva manifested as a majestic Wisdom King with three heads and six arms, standing on a blazing lotus platform, and surrounded by destructive blue flames.
He looked up at his own throne, which also displayed a wrathful appearance with three heads and six arms, illuminating a Fruition Status of blue fire like a burning star, then looked at Qi Yun, his eyes slightly narrowed. "You led my divine sense to this [All Wonders Heaven]—what is your intention?"
His voice, like thunder, rolled across the All Wonders Heaven, causing several causal threads descending from other Fruition Status levels nearby to tremble slightly.
Fighting here is far more dangerous than physical and supernatural duels outside. It directly involves the Divine Ability foundation of Dao Fruit. The slightest carelessness could result in Fruition Status's Dao fruit being tarnished, Dao Foundation being shaken, or even falling into the long river of time!
Qi Yun's [Fruition Status] is somewhat special; it is a Great Sun.
This "Great Sun" also hangs high, yet it seems to rise and fall subtly, radiating the meaning of "the Great Sun returning to its true nature and dominating the present." Its intense light even causes wisps of white steam to rise from the nearby gray river of time.
But compared to those surrounding sacred mountains that are as stable as ancient divine mountains and Fruition Status unmoved.
This round of Qi Yun's "Great Sun" lacks the sense of eternal stability, but it has more of a vigorous vitality and sharp edge—rising high, struggling against the current!
Faced with the questioning from the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva, Qi Yun calmly replied, "A contest of magic? The Bodhisattva is joking."
He paused slightly, and the light of the blazing white Great Sun suddenly contracted inward, becoming incredibly condensed and dazzling. A resolute and domineering will erupted. "This is clearly a life-or-death battle!"
"What?!" The three faces of the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva simultaneously revealed utter astonishment and absurdity.
Has this person gone mad?
You finally seized the [World-Honored One's Handwritten Scripture] and ascended to the throne, your feet are barely firmly planted, yet you want to fight me to the death?
Could it be that the river water damaged his brain?
The thought hadn't faded, but Qi Yun said no more.
Suddenly, the blazing white Great Sun trembled!
The next moment, it moved.
With an indomitable and resolute spirit, defying all odds, it crashed headlong into the wrathful Fruition Status of Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva in the center of the blue flame kingdom, which hung diagonally above it!
"Boom-!!!"
The blazing white light of the Great Sun clashed fiercely with the flames of the Azure Flame Buddha Land within the [All Wonders Heaven]!
In that instant, it was as if two ancient stars were colliding with destructive force!
Centered on the point of collision, a ripple, a mixture of blazing white and lapis lazuli, filled with the Daoist meanings of "wrath," "demon subjugation," "Great Sun," and "present," spread out suddenly, like the first ripple of creation!
"Snap! Snap! Snap-!!!"
A dense, continuous cacophony of sounds erupted!
Near the point of impact, the once-stable [All Wonders Heaven] void was violently blasted open with countless twisted, bottomless "cracks"!
A chaotic flow of liquid gushed from the edge of the crack—a wound torn open by violence!
Several strands of cause and effect that had fallen from other nearby Fruition Status were swept by this terrifying ripple, instantly breaking and annihilating!
At the same time, several Foundation Establishment True Person in different locations within the Xuanhuang Home Realm suddenly screamed and died inexplicably!
Two immense forces, powerful enough to support a lineage and illuminate eternity, engaged in the most primal, brutal, and direct struggle within this supreme All Wonders Heaven!
The entire [All Wonders Heaven] was shaken by this sudden and extremely fierce clash of Fruition Status!
All the will invested in this is filled with awe and solemnity.
"Fruition Status Collision! He actually dares to do that!" Qingyuan True Lord Wendao in a low voice.
The Fruition Status is the credential of the highest authority in the Xuanhuang Home Realm.
It is also the most crucial and fatal weakness of True Lord and Bodhisattvas.
It is indestructible, bound by the Great Dao, and cannot be erased by Heaven and Earth.
Only through this can the true spirit be lifted high above the Long River of Time, enjoying Changsheng and overlooking the changing of eras.
Even if the heavens and earth collapse, as long as Fruition Status remains intact, the True Lord is virtually immortal.
Yet it is as fragile as glass.
Once it encounters a fundamental impact of the same level, this seemingly eternal Dao Fruit will tremble violently.
At that time, the supporting spirit will shake, loosen, and may even slip off its Fruition Status.
Even more dangerously, Fruition Status's position may be forced to "decline" under pressure, resulting in a loss of status and a clouded Dao Path.
In the most severe cases, it can even lead to [Fruition Status Escape], directly causing the True Lord to fall from his throne!
Therefore, unless one is determined to die with the enemy, or is an elderly venerable being nearing the end of their lifespan, True Lord.
Ordinary True Lord would never, and dare not, easily resort to such a brutal method as [Fruition Status Collision].
That was no longer a contest of magic, but a high-stakes gamble that risked one's entire life's cultivation and even the very foundation of one's existence!
The master of this blazing white Great Sun before them, Qi Yun, was merely a newly ascended True Lord who had just entered this realm and whose aura had not yet fully settled!
"This boy—could he have something to rely on?"
The solitary, towering sword-shaped Fruition Status of Qingyuan True Lord Wendao, which stretched across the All Wonders Heaven, gleamed with a faint, cold light.
From within the blade came his low, inquisitive mutterings.
He stared at the white-robed figure Fruition Status towards the enemy.
It's too peaceful.
In the depths of Qingyuan True Lord Wendao's eyes, Sword Intent, as condensed as a tangible substance, suddenly flashed, transforming into countless tiny dust particles.
Yet it contains runes that embody the supreme Daoist principles, which rapidly circulate, collide, and combine within its Fruition Status.
He was calculating, trying to see through the true intentions and possible reliance behind this seemingly crazy act.
Meanwhile, in the All Wonders Heaven, the clash between the blazing white Great Sun and the Azure Flame Buddha Land had reached its most intense juncture!
"Boom!!!"
The aftershocks of the impact transformed into a visible chaotic tide, spreading wildly in all directions. Several Dao Foundation belonging to other Arhat and True Person that were relatively close were gently brushed by this tide, and their light flickered like candles in the wind, quickly dimming by nearly half.
In the present world, these unfortunate individuals also suffered a violent death.
"You bastard!"
The will of the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva roared in fury, his three faces contorted and twisted in a ferocious grimace.
He clearly felt that his own Fruition Status had been shaken and was trembling.
However, the Fruition Status on the other side was completely unaffected. He showed no fear or hesitation, and instead charged forward with even greater force.
What kind of Fruition Status is this?!
How brave you are!
