In Qinghe City, thousands of miles away, the Cui Family Celestial Human, who was practicing swordplay, was suddenly bewildered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>realizing that the overwhelming sword light he had raised disappeared, and afterwards, no matter how he tried to manipulate the longsword or perform intricate sword techniques,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he could not stir even a trace of sword light, sword energy, and even when he flicked the steel-forged longsword with his hand, not a sound was produced!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was skeptical, lightly flicking the nearby trees, which made a dull sound, but when he pulled out the tree to use as a sword,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the sound of the tree being flicked was utterly silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not just him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire Qinghe City, and even the land within a radius of ten thousand miles, was the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether they were mortals, Innate beings, Celestial Humans, or even Deities,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>none could evoke sword energy, sword light, or sword sounds anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if these things had been ’prohibited’ from the most fundamental rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, outside the Other Shore World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Celestial Sword Energy was similarly influenced by the iron rule, suddenly weakening, and weakening further, about to dissipate!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, just before dissipating, the Celestial Sword Energy still descended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cause and Effect Parallel, cause has been initiated, and therefore, the effect followed, unstoppable, unchangeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Celestial Sword Light slowly dissipated, a faint bitter smile emerged on the beautiful Divine Spirit’s face, they lowered their head and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there really an afterlife?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" The young man said gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Spirit sighed softly, head, body, mind, and soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All split from the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Venerate fell, the world for miles rejoiced, the earth was filled with spring color, and the Celestial Vault was tinted with golden light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Likewise, blood fell like torrential rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was at this moment that the fragments of the disintegrated Divine Sword finally fell to the ground—everything before and after, happening within ten breaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A disheveled old man’s throat moved for a moment, his face showing disorientation and bewilderment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he suddenly realized that the sticky sense of the air and space around him and the feeling of being insurmountable had vanished without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The snow-white hand rested on his shoulder, gently patting it:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disheveled old man, with Li Yiyi and Luo Cheng, turned around wordlessly, walking into the Ghost Gate, entering the Other Shore World—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deities above the celestial vault, there were none who spoke, none who obstructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All quietly watched the four figures walk into the Other Shore World, just at this moment, a sky-shattering lamentation echoed from within the Other Shore World,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a Deity looked, seeing that the true dragon had its head severed, dragon blood sprayed forth, another Venerate had fallen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The celestial light and canopy within the Other Shore World gradually merged, making this realm once again impossible to be penetrated and seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deities remained silent, silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Thud!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The divine corpse, split in half, plummeted to the earth, stirring a sky-high cloud of dust and a muffled sound,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>amidst which, a Great Power gazed absently at the shattered hand, recalling the moment his own hand was pierced through like tofu by that tenuous sword energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He murmured:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"World Venerate... seems to be just a Venerate, or perhaps a false Venerate—but, but His means...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Spirits remained silent, instinctively looking at the white-haired elder with a somber expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The latter pressed his lips together, silently rescinding the iron rule he had established in this place,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>thus, sword light, sword energy, and sword sounds were once again possible here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"World-Honored One Buddha...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-haired elder lowered his gaze to the divine corpse, his eyes chillingly stern:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Accelerate the progress of deciphering the Celestial Stele, strive to enable the Venerate to enter the Other Shore World soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Divine Spirit hesitated for a moment, then spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what use is it for the Venerate to enter the realm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Several Great Powers, even you have personally taken action to stop, yet the World Venerate wielded just a single sword light, and within ten breaths...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Spirit paused, reaching out, pointing at the immense divine corpse on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The celestial vault fell slightly silent once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-haired elder closed his eyes for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke deeply:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One is not enough, then ten, if ten are not enough...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then a hundred.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Deliver my decree, mobilize the war sequence, and activate the deity-exterminating protocol, a single World-Honored One Buddha, a singular Evil God, occupies an Other Shore World.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His existence is like a beacon, tempting countless restless beings to attempt rebellion, secession, emulating the actions of this World-Honored One Buddha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Spirits exchanged looks, for the elder’s attitude had shifted too quickly, from cautious probing to now intending to employ iron-fisted measures,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>even willing to activate the war sequence, willing to pay a brutal price, all to suppress the World-Honored One Buddha!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But... it was understandable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, the World Venerate had never truly acted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The World-Honored One Buddha, though still unfathomable, had at least shown some cards and remained within a killable, suppressible realm,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>yet now, what the future may hold is uncertain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long pain is worse than short pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Divine Spirit slowly nodded, then asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Which part of the war sequence do you want to mobilize? The Capital?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-haired elder’s face suddenly revealed a faint smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, issue a call from the forty-nine provinces, let each province send at least one Venerate, this is the decree.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kong Shentong suddenly looked sideways, staring at the white-haired elder, suddenly understanding his plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy... wants to use this opportunity to openly weaken the power of the provinces!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The World-Honored One Buddha has established the Other Shore World, and openly slew a Federation Deity, which is the best reason,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>whether or not dozens or hundreds of Venerates succeed in hunting him down, it’s not a loss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Success could eradicate the World-Honored One Buddha, failure could significantly weaken the provinces, thereby removing a huge threat!\u003C\u002Fp>",1034,"2026-06-08T09:33:25.352Z",1,"novelbin.me","8a0826f267d8991bd95a3915a79af854d5e0dcd9a233e27d5f55586db1b7f086","secret-buyer-chapter-450","secret-buyer-chapter-448",547,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsecret-buyer-cover.jpg"]
