System space.
There were still ten people this time, and no new members appeared.
However, there is good news: Cao Ya, the "Peerless One," has broken through to the ninth level of the Outer Realm, and is only half a step away from the Half-Step Dharma Body.
This greatly encouraged Cao Ya and his group.
Only Cao Ya, the "Supreme Ruler of All Ages," remained somewhat solemn.
After leaving the pass, Cao Ya inquired with Xuan Bei and learned that Meng Qi had obtained the inheritance of Ananda's Breaking the Precepts Blade. Cao Ya understood all too well what this meant.
The curtain has been fully raised!
One of the masters of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Demon Buddha, is Ananda, who is also the Thunder God of Heaven and the Jade Emperor of the Primordial Era. He has many aliases.
However, the Demon Buddha was destined to fail, since his opponents were the Three Pure Ones and the Buddha.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation space in "The Supreme Being" is created by a group of sealed powerful beings and beings with great supernatural abilities, including the Demon Buddha. They infiltrated some of their power and used the Reincarnation Seal and the Investiture of the Gods to hone people and prepare them for the final calamity, so that they could have a good body and gain an advantage.
Generally, those who are drawn to the path are beacons or fish with great potential or great abilities.
Cao Ya, the "Supreme Being of an Era," is nothing special. His potential isn't particularly great; for example, he can't compare to Su Wuming of the Sword Washing Pavilion. Furthermore, he's neither a beacon nor a fish returning from the life of any powerful being, nor is he a reincarnation of any great being.
In that kind of world, Cao Yazhen was just an ordinary person.
This is why he wasn't pulled into the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Several big shots simply didn't think much of them.
Too ordinary!
In the eyes of those legendary beings, the mere external scenery, if they were to escape, could be wiped out in the blink of an eye.
Only the Dharmakaya was barely acceptable.
[The Supreme Being] Cao Ya thought to himself, and sighed.
Why isn't another awesome version of me showing up yet?
Everyone nodded in approval of Cao Ya's actions, saying that he did a good job and that this was the way to do things.
What dragons? A bunch of reptiles! Kill them all!
Since there were no new members, everyone quickly dispersed.
The World of "Peerless Sovereign".
Cao Ya emerged from seclusion. He was not a high-profile figure, nor did he dare to be high-profile in this world.
At this time, Xuanbei, along with Mengqi and Zhenhui, had already left the temple and gone to the Western Regions.
Cao Ya remained in Shaolin Temple, but was summoned by the abbot several times, which made him feel that something was amiss.
Others might not know, but he certainly did: the Abbot Kongwen before him was actually the Demon Master Han Guang.
"Is he seeing me so frequently because he's afraid I'll discover his true identity? I'm only at the ninth level of the Outer Realm, and my Dharma Body is intentionally hidden. Logically, I shouldn't be able to find out. And if he really has this concern, shouldn't he reduce his meetings with me? Why is he summoning me so many times?"
Cao Ya couldn't understand it, but she didn't want to stay at Shaolin Temple any longer.
Cao Ya made up an excuse and went down the mountain. Shaolin Temple was a den of dragons and tigers, even though he had reached the ninth level of the Outer Realm.
The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the danger.
Of course, the attainment of the Dharmakaya is another matter.
After descending the mountain, Cao Ya had no destination in mind. After thinking for a while, he decided to head west.
If he remembered correctly, Xuanbei, Mengqi, and Zhenhui encountered a major crisis on their way to the Vajra Temple in the Western Regions.
Although there weren't any major problems in the original story, who can say for sure what the real situation was like?
Meng Qi and Zhen Hui each have their own identities, so they will be fine.
Xuan Bei, however, may not be so.
Coincidentally, Cao Ya and Xuan Bei had a good relationship. Now that Cao Ya had broken through his cultivation and possessed the power of the ninth level of the Outer Realm, it was not a big deal for him to lend a helping hand and help Xuan Bei avenge his great grudge.
This is not a sensitive issue.
It doesn't involve the schemes of those bigwigs.
Otherwise, Cao Ya might not have chosen to come.
In the real world of "The Supreme Being," the Western Regions are a general term for the vast territory west of the Great Jin and Northern Zhou dynasties, and are not actually a unified concept.
Beyond the Jade Gate Pass, hundreds or even thousands of countries stand side by side, with deserts and Gobi everywhere. Among them, the vast deserts and Gobi stretching for thousands of miles include several places such as the Sea of Death, the Desert of Burial Gods, and the Western Desert. In their heartland, there are also oases and underground rivers, forming a wonderful exotic landscape.
An expert who traveled to the Western Regions in the past once said that the Western Regions can be described as an oasis and a country surrounded by deserts and Gobi, or as a country interspersed with deserts and Gobi. The only exception is the Great Snow Mountain in the north, which stretches from the Endless Abyss to the Jade Gate Pass, extending for countless miles and running through the entire Western Regions.
Deep within the Great Snow Mountain, legend has it that the tombs of nine immortals from the ancient mythological era suppress the endless abyss.
The Snow Mountain Sect, one of the major martial arts sects in the real world and one of the six sword-wielding sects, is said to have grown from the tomb guardians who have passed down their skills for generations.
Liushaji, the last town before entering the desolate Gobi Desert to the west, is a place where you can see endless sand and gravel after leaving the town. It is desolate and gloomy, and the few stubborn and twisted green clumps not only fail to bring the pulse of life, but also set off the desolate and lifeless Gobi Desert.
The fierce wind, carrying sand and gravel, was as cold as ice. It swept towards Liushaji, shrouding the town in dust, making visibility less than three meters and hearing less in all directions.
Spring has arrived in the Central Plains, with flowers blooming and everything coming back to life. But in the Western Regions, March is still as cold as winter.
Cao Ya, dressed in a monk's robe, gracefully stepped into the Flowing Sands.
He could roughly sense that deep within the vast ocean, there seemed to be some external forces quietly confronting each other.
Is it Xuanbei and the Crying Old Man?
Cao Ya didn't rush into Han Hai to surround and kill the Crying Old Man; the battle hadn't even started yet.
He entered the inn in Liusha Village.
If I remember correctly, the proprietress of this inn is a reincarnator from the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and a member of the reincarnation organization "Immortal Traces".
I've forgotten what the specific code name was.
This inn, named "The First Inn in the Vast Ocean," is old and weathered, bearing the marks of wind and sand. It has only three floors.
Stepping into the inn, Cao Ya first saw the counter, which was right by the door, cluttered with papers, brushes, ledgers, and other items.
The shopkeeper was named Qu Jiuniang. She was a woman in her late twenties, dressed in a black dress. She was dressed as a married woman, with willow-leaf eyebrows and phoenix eyes. Her face was beautiful and delicate, like a blooming flower, full of femininity, which attracted the attention of passersby, who either looked at her openly or furtively.
She rested her chin on her right hand, lazily looking at the account book. Her face, which appeared even whiter against her black dress, was expressionless, as if everyone in the inn owed her a hundred taels of silver.
Inside the inn's lobby, there were over twenty tables, all filled with people. Some were playing drinking games, some were having loud conversations, and some were whispering to each other, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere.
As Cao Ya stepped into the inn, many guests glanced at him discreetly, their eyes filled with curiosity.
Qu Jiuniang raised an eyebrow. What's going on? Monks have been coming to stay at the inn recently.
She ignored him, changed her posture, and leaned on the counter, looking languid and alluring. Many passing customers swallowed hard, but dared not look at her for long.
Cao Ya appreciated it.
"This monk is disrespectful," Qu Jiuniang sneered. "Which temple produced such a monk?"
