Meng Qi and Gu Xiaosang enter the Nine Nether, immediately facing attacks from its inhabitants, but are protected by allies. The Ancient Mother appears, attacking across time and space, but the Human Dao Dynasty and Meng Qi’s awakening blade defend Gu Xiaosang. Golden Emperor arrives, retrieves the Heavenly Punishment Axe, and forcibly enters the Nine Nether. Facing resistance from the Nine Nether’s inhabitants and allies, Golden Emperor declares she only wants Gu Xiaosang, but Meng Qi refuses to yield, and the Demon Buddha intervenes.

One might wonder if their true intention is to reclaim the Dao markers. They might seize this moment to remain, which would be quite a predicament!

At that very instant, the Blood Demon, Xuanming Ghost Emperor, Black Heavenly Emperor, and Seven Kills Taoist, their hands finally free, turned to confront the Demon Buddha, thereby thwarting the incursion of this Other Shore entity. The Nine Nether's unique characteristics remained unanchored to the Human Dao Dynasty, and the Green Emperor, held in check by the Golden Emperor, was unable to intervene, resulting in a tense stalemate.

Suddenly, a familiar Buddhist chant echoed through the void.

"My Buddha is merciful..."

The well-known Ancient Buddha Bodhi made his presence known once more. This time, however, his target was not the Human Dao Dynasty. Instead, he found a temporal juncture prior to the Human Dao Dynasty's genesis and launched an attack on Yuan Hong, who stood outside its protective embrace!

Unlike the Dark Lord, who benefited from the Demon Emperor Claw's protection, Yuan Hong, despite his formidable power and mastery of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill, spent the majority of his time outside the Nine Nether! To maintain an unblemished existence within the Pseudo Other Shore of the Nine Nether, one must either be an indigenous being of the Nine Nether, having never ventured beyond its borders, or possess the safeguard of a Supreme Divine Weapon. Although Yuan Hong possessed a damaged Donghuang Bell, it lacked the capacity to fully shield all his temporal projections!

Previously, Yuan Hong had been occupied either battling Creation itself or contending with the pseudo-destiny of the Nine Nether, phenomena which could not extend their influence beyond the Nine Nether, thus explaining his apparent flawlessness. This time, however, the Ancient Buddha Bodhi personally targeted Yuan Hong's vulnerability, aiming at him outside the Human Dao Dynasty's domain.

Even as the Green Emperor perceived the danger and began to move, the previously vanished Fu Huang reappeared to block his advance! Concurrently, the Demon Palace, which had remained hidden until now, started to materialize, and the Demon Emperor, who had been inactive, finally entered the fray. This compelled Tao Yu, at the helm of the Human Dao Dynasty, to cast a discerning gaze.

"As anticipated, it is the Demon Saint making a move, and the Demon Emperor has also entered a state of strategic reserve..." The Demon Saint, masquerading as the Demon Emperor, might have acted significantly due to the Demon Buddha's influence, yet knowing full well that the opportune moment for revelation had not yet arrived, she instead focused on obstructing the Ancient Buddha Bodhi.

At this juncture, a ferocious Heavenly Dao Monster erupted, desperately impeding the Demon Emperor's intervention! In the past, the Heavenly Dao Monster had been subdued by the Green Emperor, who utilized his own essence blood as a lure. Now, under the Demon Buddha's control, it was employed to block the Demon Emperor, treated as if it were mere parchment, wielded with utter disregard!

Amidst the interwoven struggles of these celestial entities, no one could stop the Ancient Buddha Bodhi's assault on Yuan Hong. On Mei Mountain, Yuan Hong, in the company of his sworn brothers, forming the Seven Saints of Mei Mountain, looked up in astonishment at the descending Buddhist palm. "Tianyi?!" Amidst a solemn ceremony of brotherhood, he found it incomprehensible why Tianyi would suddenly target him!

Confronted by the relentless Buddha Hand, all of Yuan Hong's transformations and struggles proved futile; he was unable to evade the palm's grasp, as blooming lotuses materialized upon his form. Instantly, a vacant smile graced his lips, and he assumed a cross-legged posture. "So this is it..." In that moment, Yuan Hong's entire essence began to be supplanted by the Ancient Buddha Bodhi. It became apparent that from the very instant of his inception, he was merely an Avatar manifested by the divine sense of the Ancient Buddha Bodhi. From beginning to end, Yuan Hong was, in essence, the Ancient Buddha Bodhi.

"My Buddha is merciful..." With a solemn and dignified countenance, Yuan Hong uttered the Buddhist invocation, a chant that resonated across the vast expanse of history. As it ascended, all iterations of Yuan Hong throughout time began to radiate a Buddha light, exuding an ethereal luminescence. This primordial essence flowed upward, directly towards the climactic battle within the Divine Capital!

Pu tsi~ The instant Yuan Hong's arm was sundered by the Human Emperor Sword, the potent essence of Human Dao bonded to the wound, rendering it beyond recovery. While inwardly shaken and maintaining a grave expression, Yuan Hong faced Tao Yu, only for his demeanor to abruptly shift into serenity. "Benefactor, the Other Shore cannot draw upon external power."

Even the most formidable Human Dao Dynasty of today would inevitably reveal its vulnerabilities! At this, Tao Yu's gaze playfully shifted towards the Ancient Buddha Bodhi before him, seemingly unfazed. "You speak the truth, proceed..." Bodhi then advanced through time to finalize the transference. Once the replacement was complete, the Yuan Hong within the Nine Nether would also revert to his true self! It was due to the revelation of a flaw back then that the Black Heavenly Emperor fell into his grasp...

However, as Bodhi continued his advance to usurp Yuan Hong's existence, he unexpectedly encountered profound darkness ahead, akin to an infinite abyss lying in wait! Pu tong~

The figure that was previously devouring Yuan Hong seemed to be doing well, with everything proceeding smoothly.

However, the very instant Yuan Hong made his first move in recent years, all connections were abruptly severed, plunging everything into utter darkness!

"This..."

Even as an Ancient One, the Ancient Buddha Bodhi felt his True Spirit reel upon crashing into the miasma ahead, with even traces of filth marring his Golden Body.

Across the river of time, using Yuan Hong's Avatar as a conduit, an attack was remotely launched against him with such potent influence!

It was a trap!

"Despicable Outsider!"

The Ancient Buddha Bodhi, whose face had been carrying a benevolent smile until now, suddenly changed his expression.

As an Ancient One, he could naturally perceive changes beyond the mortal realm and sense the filth of the Abyss, even discerning the differences brought by the Human Emperor.

Yet, he had never anticipated the enemy would lay such a massive trap for him!

"Ridiculous. If you hadn't impersonated Yuan Hong, how could you have fallen into this ensnarement?"

Tao Yu, at the crucial juncture of the Divine Capital battle, scoffed. The Human Emperor Sword in his hand was unleashed once more.

This time, however, the grand aura of the Human Dao had shifted; it was no longer focused on correction. Instead, the chaotic stream of information manifested as a dazzling black hue!

Hong~

The body of 'Yuan Hong' was engulfed. Led by the Demon Modified Dao Yi Seal, a deep sword mark was instantaneously etched onto the Ancient Buddha Bodhi's Golden Body.

An aura more peculiar than that of the Nine Nether emerged from the wound, contaminating his Pure Land.

Meanwhile, the Black Heavenly Emperor, one of the Ancient Buddha Bodhi's three corpses, shuddered violently.

Having intended to rebel alongside Yuan Hong after the impersonation, the Black Heavenly Emperor suddenly unleashed a sword mark.

The power under the Kaji of the Nine Nether amplified this mark even further.

A single strike sent the Black Heavenly Emperor plummeting from the infinite heights of the Nine Nether, dissolving the Pseudo Other Shore Realm and severing all connection to the Nine Nether!

"No!"

The Black Heavenly Emperor watched in terror. In the next moment, the Nine Chaos Heavenly Venerable, sensing the repulsive aura emanating from the Nine Nether, redirected his spearhead and annihilated all the Black Heavenly Emperor's temporal dimensions within the Nine Nether.

The Demon Buddha nearby, sensing this time-and-space-transcending sword strike, appeared equally apprehensive and began to retreat.

Concurrently, at the Origin of Life and Death, True Martial finally seized this golden opportunity. It was a rare chance where no Other Shores could intervene as he pursued the path to becoming an Other Shore. Wrapped in the Primordial Yang Ruler, he burst through the river of time, surging upwards to begin his Dao Proving for the Other Shore...
