At first, the people living around Baihong Temple would often come here to burn incense and make offerings, out of gratitude for the kindness they received during the disaster. But after coming once or twice, they stopped coming.

Worshiping Buddha is different from worshiping gods. After offering incense and blood sacrifices to gods and making wishes, there will be feedback almost immediately.

But burning incense to Buddha will not get any response.

After all, people worship gods in order to fulfill their own visions. When they see no reward for their efforts, they will naturally be unwilling to make any more efforts.

"Your Highness, please go back. I am just a broken body and I really have no intention of getting involved in the dispute in the Land of Gods. I hope Your Highness will show mercy and allow me to live out my remaining life."

"The world has suffered for a long time. Master, you have seen the tragic situation in the South Region before. You should know that what I said is true."

Beitang Shifeng's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a deep voice: "If you are willing to help, after my Central Dynasty has wiped out all the gods, we can make Buddhism the state religion. Now all the incense offerings from the gods can be enjoyed by the Buddha alone."

There was eagerness in his eyes. He was very clear about the strength of the old monk in front of him. If he could join the camp to attack Jiuyou, he would definitely be an amazing force that could influence the development of the war.

Beitang Shifeng does not have enough confidence in the battle with the Nine Nether Saint King. No matter how many supernatural powers Shen Qing has, he is still just a cultivator in the Shenzang realm. Before seeing the actual results, he will not devote all his efforts to Shen Qing and needs to make multiple preparations.

"For me, Buddha, incense has no meaning anymore."

Yun Ming shook his head slightly and sighed, "After the death of the True Buddha, the Origin Universe was in chaos. There are not many Buddhist monks now. I just want to do some small things for Buddhism before I pass away. Your Highness, please go back."

"Master, do you know that Jiuyou is going to swallow the stars?"

Beitang Shifeng looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "This star will no longer exist. What is the meaning of what you are doing now?"

"Star Devourer?"

Yun Ming was surprised at first, then he shook his head and smiled, saying indifferently:

"The Land of Fallen Gods is far more complicated than Your Highness imagined. I don't know how many true gods, great saints, and even Taoist ancestors are buried under this starry sky. Swallowing stars? Just relying on him, a mere sixth-rank incense god? Even if the great saint was here, he wouldn't dare to make such a boast."

Hearing this, Beitang Shifeng frowned immediately and spoke up, revealing the whole matter of the Red Blood Molten Star Array. He wanted to know more secrets.

"I discovered it when I first entered the star."

Yun Ming showed even less concern for the Red Blood Molten Star Array:

"This spiritual formation has no chance of threatening the Land of God's Fall. This star is just a representation. The real Land of God's Fall is this entire starry sky. This formation can at most extract the star core and accelerate the decay of this world."

Star core...

Beitang Shifeng fell into deep thought. After a while, he stood up, clasped his fists in greeting, and left in a hurry.

This time, he did not gain nothing. The inside story of the Red Blood Molten Star Array alone was enough for him to digest.

But since Jiuyou doesn’t want to swallow the stars, then what exactly does he want?

…………

…………

The sky is like glass and full of moonlight.

It was almost dawn when Shen Qing returned to the Demon Slaying Division camp.

Although Jiang Youning was Beitang Shifeng's first wife, she had not seen him for nearly a hundred years. As husband and wife, it was not so easy to sever the past ties of affection, so she asked many questions.

However, Shen Qing knew very little, and after a long struggle, the matter ended in nothing.

Shen Qing returned to the hall prepared for him by the Demon Slaying Division, sat cross-legged, calmed his mind and waited for time to pass.

…………

…………

In the blink of an eye, the moon sets, the sun rises, and the morning light breaks.

Shen Qing suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, he stood up suddenly, like a tiger or leopard out of a cage, and stepped out of the hall.

There was an empty space outside the palace and there was deathly silence inside the camp, with no movement at all.

Not far away, there stood a solitary figure in a black robe. It was clearly near noon, but the man's side was as pitch dark as the sky where one could not see one's hand in front of one's face, and not a single light could penetrate.

Seeing the familiar face of the person coming, Shen Qing's expression suddenly changed slightly.

Jiuyou!

Shen Qing thought of many possibilities. Even if the Snow God came in person, she would not be surprised at all. But she never thought that Jiuyou would show up in person!

Judging from Jiuyou's previous attitude, it was obvious that he didn't care much about her, but now he came in person.

A faint purple light flashed in Jiuyou's eyes, and several black lights flashed. The joints of Shen Qing's limbs exploded instantly, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

The moment the black light appeared, Shen Qing felt something in her heart, but its force was much faster than her reaction speed. The divine light in her body had just lit up when she suffered a serious blow.

The sundial filled with golden divine light deep in his soul instantly reversed, and his injuries were healed in the blink of an eye.

A sharp whistle flashed through the void again. Shen Qing did not hesitate at all. The divine light around him surged. He drew out his sword, and the lightning and fire spiritual patterns moved like a dragon.

She instantly tapped into all her potential in a desperate attempt.

Facing a strong man of Jiuyou's level, Shen Qing had no chance of escape. All he could do was to do his best and leave the rest to fate.

The sword light was like thunder tearing through the sky and slashing towards the underworld, with terrifying murderous intent.

Jiu You stood quietly where he was, his eyes indifferent. The sharp blade light wrapped with the divine light of the sun did not stir up any ripples in his eyes.

hum-

The dark area surrounding him suddenly expanded, instantly covering the entire camp.

Shen Qing only felt that the blade was stagnant, and the spiritual patterns attached to it were eroded and disintegrated by the invisible force, and collapsed in the blink of an eye.

Kaka-

There was a crisp cracking sound coming from the blade, and the sword spirit transformed from the dragon whale let out a series of wails, before it was finally crushed by an unparalleled force, with fragments flying everywhere.

Shen Qing's heart sank slightly. The pitch-black area surrounding her was a power that she could not yet understand. It was far beyond her current level.

puff!

Following the sword, Shen Qing's body was crushed into blood mud inch by inch, and white bones were scattered everywhere.

The intense pain stimulated Shen Qing's nerves, and veins appeared on his forehead. The moment his heart was crushed, the sundial was activated again, consuming a large amount of energy and allowing Shen Qing to return to his peak state.

Seeing that Shen Qing had recovered as before, Jiuyou's eyes brightened with a hint of excitement.

boom--

The clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and thunderous lightning covered the entire sky.

Faced with a huge gap in strength, Shen Qing did not give up. He took out the formation plate and activated the ancient spirit formation, hoping to borrow the power of the formation and make another attempt.

Her understanding of the Ancient Spirit Array has surpassed that of the previous True Lord. After it was activated, its power became even more terrifying. The world-destroying thunder turned into swords and spears, and suddenly fell like a meteor hitting the sky.

woo-

Sharp screams exploded in the void one after another. The weapons transformed by the thunder patterns were extremely powerful, but when they encountered the dark area, the same scene as the previous sword light appeared.

Like a raindrop falling into the sea, it does not create even a ripple and is disintegrated in an instant.

boom!

The formation plate in Shen Qing's hand exploded, and his bones were crushed again, his life hanging by a thread.

This time, the Nine Nether Saint King still did not pursue. He stood still without moving an inch. There seemed to be light flowing in his eyes, and he murmured:

"It is indeed the law of time and space."

Only supreme giants who have entered the pinnacle realm are qualified to touch this level of power. Ordinary Dao Ancestors are simply unable to understand the mystery behind it.

After being severely injured again, Shen Qing's body only recovered halfway and then stagnated.

Most of the energy she collected was used to impact the divine storage in her body, and there was not much left.

Due to the exhaustion of energy, the sundial stopped at this moment and could no longer be reversed. The golden divine light covering it gradually dimmed.

Shen Qing has fallen into a desperate situation and has reached the end of her rope, but at this moment her mind is extremely calm. She has never been afraid of death from the beginning to the end, but she just doesn't want to die so early.

Perhaps the only regret is that I didn’t even have the chance to say sorry to Zhao Yu.

Thinking of this, Shen Qing's mouth twitched slightly, and his thoughts became more and more confused.

Born in the future but died in the past, this way of dying can perhaps be described as rare in ancient and modern times.

Jiuyou's strength has completely surpassed the scope of the Guiyi Realm. His methods are profound, enough to be on par with a true god. Her current strength is far from enough to match him.

This feeling of powerlessness caused by the huge gap in strength was the clearest feeling Shen Qing had ever had since he started practicing.

With the sundial in her hand, her practice went so smoothly that she was gradually becoming arrogant without even noticing.

Although he said that he was not very confident, in fact Shen Qing never took Jiuyou seriously from beginning to end.

It was just like using the power of the sundial to kill Jiuyou, which was a natural and inevitable thing.

Jiuyou walked slowly over and looked down at Shen Qing, his eyes narrowed slightly, slightly disappointed: "Have you exhausted your strength?"

He just saw a vague outline.

However, the law of time and space is one of the supreme powers in the world. It is not easy for Shen Qing, a mere divine treasure, to come into contact with it.

Shen Qing was lying on the ground with calm eyes. Suddenly, murderous intent surged in his pupils. He opened his teeth slightly and a blood knife stained with the light of the sun shot out from his throat and went straight to Jiuyou's eyebrows.

boom!

Just as the blood knife came within three inches of Jiuyou's eyebrows, it exploded instantly and failed to hurt him at all.

"Ho..."

Shen Qing lay weakly on the ground, his breathing a little heavy.

The previous strike condensed her last bit of energy. After the strike, her source of energy was exhausted and she was almost completely exhausted.

Jiuyou frowned slightly and stared at Shen Qing's brows. A faint light flashed in his pupils, reaching directly into the soul, trying to find the root of the laws of time and space.

After a moment, Jiuyou's expression changed slightly. Shen Qing's soul was wrapped in a layer of rich divine light, blocking his sight. Although it was close at hand, it seemed as if separated by eternity of time and space and could not be reached.

Even with his best eyesight, he could only see a hazy shadow.
