Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 845 - 761: Grand Finale: My Dao is Fulfilled!

The years turn, the stars shift.

Unconsciously.

A thousand years have passed.

A thousand years in the heavens.

Three hundred sixty-five thousand years on earth.

On this day.

The sky is clear, the breeze gentle.

In the midst of Tianhe.

Lu Qingfeng awakens from seclusion.

"Primordial Spirit Imprint."

"Entrust to the Great Dao."

Lu Qingfeng opens his eyes with a smile: "The first step is finally done."

The first step to becoming a Golden Immortal.

Imprinting the Primordial Spirit to the Great Dao seems easy to say, but in actual cultivation, it is extremely difficult.

Lu Qingfeng secluded himself for a thousand years, stuck in Tianhe without taking a step out. Compared to the Lower Realm, it equates to three hundred sixty-five thousand years. To avoid any mishaps, he even missed observing when a thousand years ago the Heavenly Dao Master Wen Lan opened a new path of chaos.

Focused for a thousand years.

Only then did he succeed.

In the meantime, his Divine Skills have greatly advanced.

Next.

It is time to absorb the Bitter Bamboo, achieve 'self-realization', and hence attain great freedom and independence.

"Time is of the essence."

Lu Qingfeng doesn't delay.

Immediately.

He heads to the Spirit Xiao Palace to meet the Jade Emperor.

After that.

The Jade Emperor sends Bai Qi and Mosquito Daoist to escort him to Huaguo Mountain.

Just as they exit the East Heavenly Gate—

"Amitabha Buddha!"

"This road is impassable for you three benefactors!"

Lu Qingfeng glances ahead, seeing Buddha Light shining, Maitreya Buddha with his big belly happily blocking the way. Behind him, Manjusri and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva each sit on a lotus, hands in prayer, unmoving like mountains.

Lu Qingfeng and the other two exchange glances.

Quietly retreat.

Switch to the North Heaven Gate—

"Amitabha Buddha!"

"This road is impassable for you three benefactors!"

Lu Qingfeng glances ahead, seeing a female Bodhisattva holding a glazed bottle, sitting gracefully on a lotus platform. He recognizes her as the South Sea Guanyin. Behind are Anan and Kasyapa Venerables, along with Jin Zha and Mu Zha Bodhisattvas.

Lu Qingfeng and the other two exchange glances.

Quietly retreat.

Switch to the South Heavenly Gate—

"Amitabha Buddha!"

"This road is impassable for you three benefactors!"

Lu Qingfeng glances ahead, this time it's Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun blocking the way. The Eighteen Arhat Venerables are impressively present.

Lu Qingfeng and the other two exchange glances.

"Break through!"

No need for more words.

The West Heaven Gate must also be blocked by the Buddhist Sect, it's better to break through here.

The three exchange glances, Bai Qi and Mosquito Daoist move first.

The two advance, one with a sword slashing against the Eighteen Arhats. The other vanishes without a trace, attacking the Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun.

"Amitabha Buddha."

The Eighteen Arhats set up a formation.

Briefly resisting Bai Qi.

Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun points a finger, a flash of Immortal Light bursts forth, intersecting in all directions. As it materializes, it's an Immortal Rope. Mosquito Daoist dares not reveal himself, dares not approach, momentarily constrained.

"Binding Immortal Rope!"

"What a treasure!"

Lu Qingfeng is overjoyed seeing this. Five-colored Divine Light rises from his back, rushing towards the Immortal Light fiercely.

Three successive brushes.

A rope appears in his hand.

Indeed, it's the supreme treasure of Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun—the Binding Immortal Rope.

"Hmm?"

Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun did not expect this change.

To know that.

A thousand years ago, Maitreya, Manjusri, and Samantabhadra each used their magic artifacts and easily captured Lu Qingfeng. Yet unexpectedly, in just a millennium, he's facing such misfortune here.

For a moment.

Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun's brows furrow tightly.

Lu Qingfeng doesn't care, his Five-colored Divine Light shimmers in his hands, erasing all imprints within the Binding Immortal Rope.

After a millennium of secluded cultivation.

He has advanced not only in Mana and cultivation.

The Five-colored Divine Light has also progressed rapidly.

From the original Third Level, advancing to the Fifth Layer in one go. Precisely to cope with today's situation, his strike indeed was effective.

"Don't get entangled!"

Seeing Lu Qingfeng take the Binding Immortal Rope, Mosquito Daoist secretly applauds, but shouts out. The Buddhist Sect this time hasn't just brought Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun and the Eighteen Arhats. In the other three directions, there are Great Powers blocking the way.

If they don't leave promptly, they'll be stopped and taken back to the Heavenly Court.

Lu Qingfeng also understands this.

Immediately starts moving.

As both sides are entangled, he uses the Cloud Sky Step to dash towards Huaguo Mountain.

Mosquito Daoist makes a feint, not bothering with Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun, quickly following Lu Qingfeng. Bai Qi fiercely slashes a sword, tearing open a gap in the Arhat Formation, leaping through it, closely following.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun is relentless.

A Dharma Body suddenly emerges from him. This Dharma Body has twenty-four heads, eighteen hands, each hand armed with Buddha and Dao magic artifacts like divine weapons, copper bells, magic swords, etc.

To entangle the trailing Bai Qi.

Then leaps up, transforming into Golden Light, appearing in no time before Lu Qingfeng and Mosquito Daoist.

"Vertical Earth Golden Light!"

Mosquito Daoist recognizes the Divine Skill.

Looks at Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun, seeing him seemingly smiling yet not smiling, mana coalescing in his hand, manifesting a twenty-four-section long whip, inscribed with two characters 'Mountain Chasing'.

"Mountain Chasing Whip."

"Mountain Whip Stone Move!"

An upward stroke rises, rocks flurry in all directions, peaks strike horizontally.

This is the Daoist's Great Divine Power 'Mountain Whip Stone Move'. Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun, originating from the Chan Sect, is adept in Divine Skills, his strike puts a heavy weight on Lu Qingfeng's heart.

"Go!"

Mosquito Daoist hums, sweeping up Lu Qingfeng, burrowing underground. As the first mosquito from the dawn of creation to reach Dao, he is capable of transcending sky and sea, above and below earth.

Yet as he crashes down.

Clang!

A loud noise reverberates.

Dizziness and blur.

Immediately bounced back.

"Ah—"

Lu Qingfeng was also knocked dizzy, and when he steadied his vision, he saw the surrounding land shimmering with golden light and densely covered with runes. Lu Qingfeng looked up at Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun, who held a Mountain Chasing Whip in one hand and pointed to the ground with the other.

"Pointing to the ground to turn it into steel!"

Lu Qingfeng felt a toothache just watching.

This Ju Liusun was not an ordinary figure, even without Supreme Treasure, the Buddhist Sect and Daoist Divine Skills were enough to entangle Mosquito Daoist and Bai Qi.

As time dragged on.

The situation could turn unfavorable.

Mosquito Daoist and Bai Qi evidently realized this point but had no solutions for the moment.

They could only fight with all their might.

Bai Qi battled with Dharma Bodies.

As the Dharma Bodies retreated step by step, each time he tried to escape, he was entangled. It wasn't difficult for him to escape alone, but it wasn't easy to take Lu Qingfeng along.

Moreover, the Eighteen Arhats were annoying him from the side, adding to the frustration.

For a moment, there was a stalemate.

Mosquito Daoist continued to fight with Ju Liusun.

Lu Qingfeng dared not leave alone.

Or else, if he bumped into a Great Power on the way, he would be captured.

The fierce battle was at its peak.

Beyond Cloud Sky.

Maitreya, Manjusri, and Universal Virtue arrived first.

Dragon Escape Stake arrived ahead.

It smashed towards Bai Qi, intending to trap him.

"Haha!"

"Well-timed!"

Bai Qi was not flustered; he laughed heartily and raised Bai Qi above his head.

Taking out an object from his hand, it was an umbrella.

As he opened it, he spun it three or four times, and darkness engulfed the universe, the cosmos collapsed. Black smoke roared fiercely, the gold serpent swirled in the air, and fire surged across the ground. What a fire! As the poem attests: Tens of thousands of golden serpents roll within, black smoke covers the body, life is difficult to sustain.

The Dragon Escape Stake was instantly stored away.

Upon seeing this, Manjusri furrowed his brows: "Primordial Umbrella!"

"Indeed, the Primordial Umbrella!"

Bai Qi laughed heartily.

Holding the Primordial Umbrella, he exuded vigor.

This umbrella was strung together with Bright Pearl, featuring Grandmother Green, Grandmother Seal, Grandmother Bi, Luminous Pearl, Dust-clearing Pearl, Fire-Repelling Pearl, Water-shielding Pearl, Cooling Pearl, Nine Curves Bead, Ding Yan Pearl, Wind Stabilizing Pearl. It was inscribed with the phrase "encompassing the cosmos" in pearls.

It was the Supreme Treasure of 'Duo Wen Heavenly King' among the Four Heavenly Kings.

Bai Qi, cautious of Manjusri and Universal Virtue wielding treasures, specifically borrowed it before leaving the Heavenly Court. 'Duo Wen Heavenly King,' relying on this umbrella's power, with average cultivation, dared not refuse when the god of slaughter Bai Qi came to borrow it.

With this move.

It displayed great power.

Lu Qingfeng looked at the Primordial Umbrella, also startled. He had long heard of 'Duo Wen Heavenly King's' Primordial Umbrella's prowess; when opened, the heavens would turn dark, the sun and moon lost their light, shaken by a spin, the cosmos quiver; with a flicker, it could absorb enemy treasures and weapons.

Witnessing it today.

It was indeed extraordinary.

But even having put away the Dragon Escape Stake, the arrival of Maitreya Buddha, Manjusri, and Universal Virtue turned the tide. Without utilizing their treasures, merely relying on their Dao abilities and Divine Skills was enough to suppress Bai Qi and Mosquito Daoist.

Lu Qingfeng wanted to go to Huaguo Mountain.

Unless the Jade Emperor acts.

Observing that Guanyin and others were about to arrive.

At this moment.

A gold-colored hand covered in plush fur from nowhere stretched forth, with mystery born in the palm, capturing Lu Qingfeng.

"Combat Buddha."

Ancient Buddha Ju Liusun looked at the hand hesitantly for a moment, refraining from action. Maitreya, Manjusri, Universal Virtue also fell silent for a while and withheld their Mana.

Mosquito Daoist and Bai Qi saw it, snorted coldly.

And disengaged.

Turning around, headed back to the Heavenly Court.

...

Whoosh whoosh!

The sound of the wind roared.

In an instant, Lu Qingfeng fell down.

Looking around, he realized he was already within the realm of Huaguo Mountain.

This was not his first time at Huaguo Mountain.

Back in the Western Tour time-space, he was blown here by Sanmei Divine Wind from his older brother. This time, arriving for the first time in reality was with the direct capture of the Great Saint from the mountain.

Lu Qingfeng looked at the Daoist before him, bent to salute, and spoke: "Tianpeng greets the Great Sage!"

"Why is Seventh Brother being so formal?"

Wu Kong Daoist teased with a smile.

"In the past, Tianpeng was young and ignorant, I offended, and hope the Great Sage would be lenient!" Lu Qingfeng, knowing he'd be reminded of past offenses upon meeting Wu Kong Daoist, felt a sudden jolt and a sense of crisis.

"Hehe."

Wu Kong Daoist chuckled, did not tease further, he pointed to a green bamboo in the mountain and said, "This is Bitter Bamboo, Tianpeng True Monarch can absorb and experience enlightenment. With me holding fort in Huaguo Mountain, not even Tathagata dares to intrude lightly."

These words were spoken plainly.

Yet sounded tyrannical in the ears.

"Thank you, Great Sage!"

Lu Qingfeng finally felt at ease, according to Wu Kong Daoist's instructions, he went before the Bitter Bamboo, sat cross-legged, and began cultivation.

This second step towards Golden Immortal, understanding 'self as self', though spoken lightly, is actually not easy to achieve.

Like Duo Bao Daoist.

Initially absorbing a myriad of Spiritual Treasures, spent endless time.

Also, like the Wu Kong Daoist in the mountain.

During the Western Tour, fought fiercely with the Six-Eared Macaque in the heavens and on earth, eventually only with Tathagata's help managed to absorb and thereby attained Dao.

None were easy.

Lu Qingfeng now wanted to absorb Bitter Bamboo; even if found, it was difficult.

Fortunately, the mountain was secure.

Lu Qingfeng felt at ease for cultivation.

Time passed.

Huaguo Mountain sits in the Earth Immortal World, different from the Heavenly Realm suns.

A thousand years.

Ten thousand years.

Hundred thousand years.

Million years.

In the blink of an eye, a million years passed.

That day.

In Huaguo Mountain.

Lu Qingfeng opened his eyes, let out a long exultation—

"My Dao is achieved!"

With a laugh.

The Bitter Bamboo vanished.

Proved Da Luo Dao Fruit!
