We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real? - Chapter 520
Chapter 518: The Three Worlds Unite as One, Equal to Heaven
In their lifetimes, the Ten Yama Kings were renowned giants of the immortal path, reaching the mid-to-late stage of Golden Immortal cultivation, worshipped by countless immortals, sometimes even defying the orders of the Immortal Emperor. Not to mention their mastery of the cycle of life and death in death,
their combat prowess surpassing that of their predecessors. If the underworld could interfere with the living world, and the Ten Yama Kings could take action against the immortal realm, their combined power would rival that of a Primordial Infinite Immortal!
But facing Jiang Li, they were like powerless children against an ancient beast; a battle was impossible.
The Wheel King dared not engage Jiang Li again and retreated, digging King Chujiang from the ground. King Chujiang then extinguished the Netherworldly Flame emanating from Emperor Song.
The remaining seven Yama Kings fared no better.
The Five Senses King attacked, stripping Jiang Li of his five senses, rendering him unable to see, hear, smell, taste, or feel.
The King of Five Senses presides over the Hell of Loneliness. Depriving one’s five senses can plunge a person into the most despairing loneliness.
Just as the King of Five Senses was gloating, Jiang Li struck him with a punch, disfiguring his features
beyond recognition. King Yama, King Pingdeng, King Biancheng… the six Yamas were defeated one after another, seemingly simultaneously.
Their dazzling skills were no match for Jiang Li’s blow.
The Ten Yamas refused to concede defeat and continued to challenge Jiang Li.
“Still not admitting defeat?” Jiang Li felt these ten men possessed a remarkable determination.
King Chujiang bared his remaining teeth, less than half of which remained. “I don’t know if I’m stronger than the Dao Ancestor, but you hit me much harder. The Dao Ancestor knocked out half my teeth, and you only knocked out two.”
With King Chujiang’s level of cultivation, restoring his teeth would be a simple matter. He hadn’t restored them because he wanted to prove that he had fought the Dao Ancestor.
Fighting the Dao Ancestor is an honor, even if defeated.
Jiang Li silently raised his fist, preparing to deliver a powerful blow.
The Ten Yama Kings were horrified and quickly ran behind the female ghost messenger for protection.
Jiang Li smiled and said, “Emperor Hou Tu, or should I call you Empress Hou Tu?”
Upon hearing this, the female ghost messenger dropped her pretense and revealed her true form: Empress Hou Tu, dressed in an inky celestial robe and always maintaining a gentle smile.
“Empress Hou Tu will do. Emperor Jiang recognized me?”
“Your Majesty, you didn’t intend to pretend, did you?”
“I hope the Emperor will forgive me. The Ten Yama Kings didn’t take action on their own initiative. I instructed them to do so.” Empress Hou Tu apologized and took Jiang Li to Youdu, with the Ten Yama Kings limping behind.
The Empress of the Underworld glared. “What are you all doing here? Why aren’t you going back to work?”
“Give us a few days off, considering we’re so badly injured.”
The Prince of Chujiang pitifully displayed his wounds. The Emperor of Song, covered in burns, was even worse off than the Prince of Chujiang. The Emperor of Five Senses, with his features randomly arranged, wasn’t much better off either…
The Empress of the Underworld sighed. “Well, then, I’ll let you rest for three days. Find some reliable men to temporarily take over your duties.”
The Ten Yama Kings cheered, their wounds healed, and went home.
Jiang Li’s attack was gentle.
The Empress of the Underworld held her forehead in her hand. She could tell they were feigning, that she was just giving them an excuse to rest.
After all, they hadn’t rested in centuries.
“The Dao Ancestor once said that after his death, he saw a man who came from the future. He was unfathomable, far surpassing the Heavenly Dao, and could be called the greatest person in ancient times.”
“I think you are the person the Dao Ancestor mentioned, so I asked the Ten Kings of Hell to test your strength.”
“Then did your Majesty test it out?”
Hou Tuhuang just shook her head, pursed her lips, and smiled helplessly: “No, you are too strong. You didn’t use your full strength in the fight just now. I was watching from beginning to end, but I still couldn’t see your limit.”
“Do you want to try it, Majesty?”
“How much strength did you use just now?”
“I haven’t stretched my muscles
yet.” You haven’t used any strength after being beaten like that just now?
Hou Tuhuang just shook her head: “Then let’s not try. No wonder the Dao Ancestor said you can defeat the Heavenly Dao. You are too strong. I know I can’t beat you. There’s no need to embarrass yourself.”
“I’m afraid only the Heavenly Dao can complete your warm-up.
” “Not necessarily the Heavenly Dao. I have encountered two parallel versions of myself before. I have fought with them. They can be considered as warm-up targets.”
“Do parallel worlds really exist?” Hou Tuhuang only knew the theory of parallel worlds, but she had never seen anyone go to a parallel world.
Jiang Li recounted his encounter with the First Emperor and the idler in his dream.
“So, it must be a parallel world without a doubt. The Buddha once said that some things are uncertain. For example, he could have attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, or he could have attained enlightenment under a banana tree. The one who attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree is who he is now, and the one who attained enlightenment under the banana tree is who he is in the parallel world.” “
The Buddha said this was his assumption when he comprehended the Dao of Space, and it’s not necessarily true. Now that I hear you say this, it seems that parallel worlds do exist.”
“What did the Wheel King say about me not having a past life or a future life?” Hou
Tuhuang thought for a moment and said, “I heard from the Taoist Ancestor that he has been pursuing a realm where he cultivates only this life, uniting the three lives into one, becoming independent of the heavens and myriad realms, eliminating cause and effect, and becoming an immortal on equal footing with the Dao of Heaven.”
“Uniting the three lives into one doesn’t mean you have no past life, it just means that your past life is known only to you, and cannot be discovered by outsiders.”
“And there will be no future life either, because this realm is already the strongest, indestructible and immortal, unable to even commit suicide.”
“He tried many methods, even mastering the most difficult Three Corpses cultivation method, but he only achieved the unity of the three corpses, not the unity of the three lives.”
Empress Hou Tu looked at Jiang Li with a complicated expression. “You should have reached this point. No, you must have gone further. If you had only achieved the unity of the three lives, Daozu would have been able to see it.”
“The Daozu can’t see through you, which only means you’ve reached a level beyond his reach.”
Empress Hou Tu only remembered asking Daozu how powerful people from the future could be.
Daozu’s response was, it’s time to test your imagination.
Jiang Li understood why the Yin-Yang Heavenly Seal couldn’t see his karma. He had already reached the state of the Three Worlds Merging into One, eliminating his own karma.
“Then, does your Majesty know of a place called Blue Star?”
Hou Tu Huangzhi asked in return, “Do you know the name of the world that planet is on?”
Jiang Li shook his head.
Hou Tu Huangzhi said regretfully, “Then I can’t help you. We are all reincarnated in worlds. We don’t consider whether it’s Blue Star or Red Star, and we don’t have the habit of observing planets.” “
If the Human Emperor wants the coordinates of the heavens and myriad worlds, I can give them to you.”
“So generous?”
Hou Tu Huangzhi smiled. “The Human Emperor saving the world is a good thing for us. The more worlds you save, the more prosperous the world, the more new life there is, and the less pressure on us in the underworld. It’s a win-win situation.”
Jiang Li accepted the soul jade pendant that Hou Tu Huangzhi handed over. It contained the coordinates of all the heavens and myriad worlds.
Hou Tu Huangzhi had already prepared the jade pendant and was waiting for Jiang Li’s consent.
