Chapter 232: The Mighty Power of the Grand Spacetime Reincarnation, the Ability to Alter the Timeline
In the river of time and space.
Feng Yi's indifferent voice rang out, reverberating like a thunderclap in the ears of the many god kings, making them feel as if their very souls trembled.
All along, they, these primordial god kings, have stood above all, looking down upon all living beings, taking the entire universe as a fish pond, regarding postnatal life as fish, and devouring the dao fruits of postnatal emperors to enhance their own cultivation.
But who would have thought that one day, in the eyes of this Paoxi Shi, these primordial god kings born of the Great Dao would instead become the fish, becoming the ones to be devoured.
Gazing at that figure standing upon the river of time and space, with indifferent eyes looking down upon their own dark-robed silhouettes, the many god kings seemed to return to the time when they were suppressed by that opponent, and for a moment their fighting spirit vanished completely.
Ha ha ha
Just then, a primordial god king resembling a crow stepped forward and laughed loudly: "Your Majesty Xi Huang, you are too arrogant! Perhaps you have now opened the eightfold reincarnation, your power surpassing that of your previous life, but just by yourself, you actually intend to devour all of us primordial god kings—don't you think that's overly wishful thinking?"
Having said that, he turned his gaze to the many god kings and shouted: "Fellow daoists, do not be deceived by Paoxi Shi; this is merely his psychological ploy. Even though he has now attained the realm of a Dao God, with so many of us god kings here, as long as we unite, why should we fear him?"
Although he did not know the exact strength of Xi Huang Paoxi Shi now, he clearly understood that if they continued, without Paoxi Shi needing to act, everyone would likely have lost their will to fight and their combat power would greatly diminish.
Furthermore, more importantly, the primordial holy land that gave birth to him remains hidden by him in a secret place within the universe, and it has not been damaged.
Even if he were slain here today by Paoxi Shi, he could be reborn from his own primordial holy land, though his strength would be somewhat reduced.
If that is the case, why then fear Paoxi Shi so much!
If they could unite all the god kings and turn the tables to suppress Paoxi Shi, they might obtain the secrets of the eightfold reincarnation system, turning misfortune into blessing, thereby truly stepping across that threshold to attain the position of a Dao God.
This deal is worthwhile no matter how you look at it!
As the words of that primordial god king fell, the many god kings also snapped out of their earlier shock, thought of these points, and immediately regained their fighting spirit.
Especially those god kings whose primordial holy lands had not been damaged now recovered their original composure even more.
He he
Just then, a light laugh sounded, and Feng Yi gazed calmly at the primordial god king who had spoken, saying lightly: "Yuan Ya, do you think I need to scheme against you lot of ants!"
Hum
The moment his words fell, a mysterious undulation flowed across the river of time and space; the spacetime around the Primordial God King Yuan Ya instantly shifted, and before he could react, he found himself directly before Feng Yi.
At the same time, a hand that seemed to shroud spacetime descended upon Primordial God King Yuan Ya, encompassing past and future, occupying all changes of fate, giving him a feeling of being unable to escape.
A strong sense of danger welled up in his heart, and Primordial God King Yuan Ya's face changed drastically; in an instant he transformed into a vast crow, wings spread wide, like an endless ancient Dao mountain.
The Dao mountain is eternal and unchanging, yet its contours are endless and ever‑shifting, as if it were an evolution of a branch of the Yi Dao principle.
Huh
Seeing this, Feng Yi's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of interest appearing in his gaze, and he said softly: "This is the Primordial Mountains and Rivers Great Dao."
The moment his words fell, Feng Yi unconsciously eased his divine ability by a fraction.
Primordial god kings are born from a certain Great Dao within the universe; their body is their soul, their soul is their body, and they are simultaneously a complete manifestation of that Great Dao.
At this critical moment, Primordial God King Yuan Ya also revealed his own Great Dao essence, the entire crow seeming to directly transform into the Primordial Mountains and Rivers Great Dao.
Boom
Nevertheless, even though Feng Yi had deliberately restrained some of his power, the instant his palm fell, Primordial God King Yuan Ya was directly suppressed with no ability to resist, as if he had become a tiny bird in Feng Yi's palm.
Only when truly facing Paoxi Shi's palm‑suppression did Primordial God King Yuan Ya realize the opponent's might—a strength utterly unstoppable, far surpassing the level of ancient god kings and even greater than that of the Dao Venerable Fu Min of old.
"Perhaps, as Paoxi Shi said, he is now an invincible existence in the entire universe!"
This thought arose in his mind, Primordial God King Yuan Ya's expression changed, he let out a faint sigh, completely abandoned his delusions, and awaited his demise so that he could be reborn anew from his primordial holy land.
Although being reborn from his primordial holy land would take a long time, it is still better than total annihilation here.
Primordial God King Yuan Ya had already made up his mind: after this rebirth, he would absolutely hide himself completely.
He would not emerge again until Paoxi Shi had completely exhausted his lifespan and even his soul was utterly erased.
But just then, Primordial God King Yuan Ya suddenly felt a mysterious intuition, and instinctively gazed toward the past of the river of time, toward the moment the universe first opened.
When Chaos first opened, myriad dao principles evolved to produce all things in the universe, and in this process the Primordial Mountains and Rivers Great Dao condensed into a primordial Dao mountain that could be called the foremost divine mountain of the cosmos.
The primordial Dao mountain stood in the universe, the ancestor of all mountains, majestic and vast, encircled by boundless star rivers, larger than any star system.
And within this primordial Dao mountain, the Primordial Mountains and Rivers Great Dao gave birth to a primordial god king—none other than Primordial God King Yuan Ya.
But just then, the river of time and space grew hazy, the past timeline shifted, and before Primordial God King Yuan Ya was even born, a hand suddenly appeared, seeming to come from above the river of time and space, covering the starry sea and firmament, directly taking away the ancient Dao mountain.
In an instant, the entire timeline of the universe changed, past and future seeming to become different.
Upon the river of time, Yuan Ya's mind fluttered dazedly, and suddenly a brand‑new memory arose, as if he had just experienced a great dream.
This
After a while, he suddenly looked at himself and found his whole person had become illusory, as if he had lost the very foundation of his existence.
"I never existed at all!"
Saying those words instinctively, Primordial God King Yuan Ya completely dissipated into nothingness.
Feng Yi at this moment paid no heed to Primordial God King Yuan Ya, instead being wholly immersed in a special state, with countless insights arising in his heart.
And behind him, two rings of light in spacetime blazed with unprecedented brilliance; together with the positive and negative sixfold reincarnation they formed a true great spacetime reincarnation system, giving him a feeling of completely transcending the river of time and space.
Spacetime. Past and future. Beginning and end. Reincarnation
Countless insights continually flowed in his heart, compared with the Great Dao concept of Fu Huang, giving Feng Yi the sense that he had achieved the other shore of a world system honoring the supremacy of one lifetime, with a single thought able to alter the past and future of the entire universe.
Boom
But just then, as the universe's timeline shifted, the entire river of time and space surged violently, and a backlash of terrifying intensity rushed toward Feng Yi, causing a hint of danger to arise in his heart.
Crack!
A faint cracking sound rang out, and between the two rings of light behind Feng Yi a minuscule crack appeared, as if it were about to shatter.
"No, my great spacetime reincarnation system of eight paths has not yet truly reached perfection; I cannot arbitrarily alter the past timeline as a true other shore could!"
This thought arose in his mind, Feng Yi's inner breath shifted slightly, and the rings of light behind him began to turn once more.
In an instant, the past timeline returned to normal; Feng Yi did not, in the past, take away the primordial Dao mountain, but allowed Primordial God King Yuan Ya to be born, letting everything proceed according to the original timeline.
The river of time and space of the whole universe flowed along its normal timeline, and the position of the ancient Dao mountain continually shifted, having been concealed by Primordial God King Yuan Ya in a secret place within the universe.
All the way up to the present moment, a hand that veiled the star river suddenly appeared, breaking through the concealment and taking away the ancient Dao mountain.
Above the river of time and space, as the past timeline returned to normal, the apparition of the Yuan Crow God King revived once more, appearing again, momentarily somewhat dazed.
Looking at Fuxi before him, memories surfaced in his mind, and the Yuan Crow God King's eyes showed an expression of extreme terror.
But the next moment, it seemed to sense something, its pupils flickered, and it saw the Innate Dao Mountain in Fuxi's hand.
"'That is my Innate Sacred Land.'"
Before the thought in his mind had fully settled, the Yuan Crow God King turned into a strand of Dao light, merging into the Innate Dao Mountain, as if returning to the origin and rejoining the Great Dao.
It died again!
Afterward, the entire Innate Dao Mountain transformed into the true Innate Mountains and Rivers Great Dao, merging into the eight light wheels behind Fengyi, becoming part of them.
In an instant, insights into this universe's Innate Mountains and Rivers Great Dao arose in Fengyi's mind, making his eyes brighter than ever before.
"'The Dao of Innate Mountains and Rivers is a branch of the Yi Dao; the Dao Mountain is eternally unchanging, the foundation; the undulating mountain ranges represent change; seeking the unchanging fundamental principle within change, and discovering the laws of change in all things within the unchanging.'"
With this insight, Fengyi gained a new supplement and understanding of this universe's system, vaguely comprehending something.
"'I need more Innate Great Dao to perfect my cultivation of this universe's system, and to completely construct my own unique eight‑wheel Yin‑Yang reincarnation system.'"
"'I also need the origin and ending Dao of the Origin Dao God, so that my spacetime forms a perfect cycle, making past and future become my own exclusive reincarnation, unrestricted by past or future.'"
"'Only then can I, in this universe, like the other shore, easily alter timelines without fearing spacetime backlash.'"
Countless thoughts arose in his mind, giving Fengyi a complete and clear understanding of his future path.
Although merely altering timelines in this relatively fragile universe of spacetime is far inferior to the true Heavenly Will of the other shore in the World of the One‑Life Sovereign, it still shows that Fengyi's path is not wrong; as his cultivation advances, even if he does not reach the other‑shore realm, he is not incapable of opposing the true Heavenly Will of the other shore.
In the outside world, from Fengyi's move to suppress the Yuan Crow God King to absorbing his Innate Mountains and Rivers Great Dao, all of this occurred in a brief instant, giving the various god kings no chance to lend aid to the Yuan Crow God King.
Within the river of time and space, each god king stared in shock at what unfolded before them, feeling their souls tremble, even a creepy sensation, and the fighting spirit that had risen in their hearts vanished completely.
Although the Yuan Crow God King is not the strongest among the primordial god kings, his strength is still among the top, second only to beings like the Black and White Emperors, who are only half a step away from becoming Dao Gods.
Yet such a mighty Yuan Crow God King, in Fuxi's hands now, had no power to resist at all.
More importantly, Fuxi can not only easily suppress the Yuan Crow God King but also alter past timelines, directly seizing the Yuan Crow God King's Innate Sacred Land in past ages, erasing the very foundation of his birth at the source.
Such a terrifying ability utterly refreshed the worldviews of many god kings, making them feel as if they had fallen into an illusion.
Even though they are god kings born since the universe's beginning, having endured countless ages and witnessed myriad eras of primordial god kings, they have never seen such a horrifying method.
Many god kings do not realize that Fengyi currently cannot arbitrarily change past timelines; in their eyes, the life and death of the Yuan Crow God King lie in a single thought of Fuxi—dead one moment, alive the next.
The lofty primordial god king, one of the strongest beings in the world, now appears in Fuxi's hands as mere plaything.
"'Flee!'"
This is the sole thought arising in every god king's mind; they are now utterly terrified.
Before Fuxi now, even their Innate Sacred Lands cannot keep them immortal.
The fate of the Yuan Crow God King before them shows the god kings that Fuxi intends not only to devour their Daos but also to spare no Innate Sacred Land that gave them birth.
Hum
At the moment when the god kings' hearts were filled with dread, Fengyi turned his gaze, his eyes burning as he looked toward them.
The instant Fengyi's gaze swept over them, all the god kings felt a chill in their hearts, as if they had become some kind of edible ingredient.
This gaze felt strangely familiar to them—it was exactly the look they once cast upon the later‑born emperors.
But this moment, the roles of attacker and defender reversed, and that gaze fell upon them.
Boom
Without the slightest hesitation, all the god kings erupted with their greatest aura, not to attack Fengyi but to shatter the surrounding river of time and space that enveloped them, hastening to flee this dreadful place and escape that terrifying gaze.
All the god kings had no thought of fighting; they only wanted to flee quickly!
Fuxi now is truly terrifying, the most powerful being they have ever encountered in history, far surpassing all past strong ones.
"Hehe."
A soft laugh sounded; Fengyi gazed at the god kings in the river of time and space with a smiling look, speaking gently: "Friends of the Dao, since you have witnessed my Great Dao, why rush to leave?"
"You are all primordial gods and demons born in accordance with the Great Dao; now you are about to return to the origin, just like your fellow Daoist Yuan Crow returning to the Great Dao—shouldn't you be happy?"
His voice was extremely gentle, yet like a demon's whisper, it made all the god kings' souls tremble, giving rise to an unprecedented sense of danger in their hearts.
Rumble
The moment Fengyi's words fell, the eight light wheels behind him burst forth with brilliant divine light, beginning to spin continuously, emitting an immense power of the great spacetime reincarnation.
In an instant, the entire river of time and space boiled over, as if transformed into a surging, roaring divine dragon, with spacetime in chaos and an unimaginably terrifying divine might descending upon each god king within it.
Boom boom boom
One after another, tremendous roaring sounds rang out; aside from the primordial god kings whose strength neared that of a Dao God, in the blink of an eye all the ancient and supreme god kings exploded, turning into fragments of the Great Dao.
Faced with Fengyi now somewhat serious, these ordinary god kings possessed not even a shred of resistance.
The river of time surged; relying on the spacetime connection, each extremely secret Innate Sacred Land was pressed down by a hand reaching from above the river, together with the newly nurtured god king within, transforming into the most essential Innate Dao, merging into the eight light wheels behind Fengyi, continually supplementing and perfecting his Yin‑Yang eight‑wheel reincarnation system, making up for its disharmonies.
Countless insights into this universe's various Innate Great Daos arose in Fengyi's spiritual world, making his mind seem to split into countless parts, transforming into innumerable primordial gods and demons born in accordance with the Great Dao, fully comprehending the essence of each of this universe's Innate Great Daos.
His innate spiritual light stood above all, clearly and calmly organizing the various insights, integrating them into his own path, making his path ever more perfect.
At the same time, Fengyi's inner aura grew ever more mysterious, encompassing all Daos, causing the myriad Daos of the entire universe to resonate in turn.
