244: The ninth true spirit! The future body!

“The ninth Primordial Ferocious True Spirit? Where is it? Why doesn't this Future Buddha see it?” The Future Buddha feigned confusion, looking around.

The vast abyss was filled with nothing but profound silence and endless Buddhist light.

Qin Han’s shattered body appeared particularly frail at this moment; in the Future Buddha’s eyes, his words were no different from a mere bluff.

A hint of playfulness flashed in the Future Buddha’s eyes as he spoke, “This Future Buddha happens to be lacking a general for the upcoming conquest of the Nine Heavens. If you submit now and accept the servant’s brand, I can spare your life.”

“Under this Future Buddha’s leadership, achieving Immortality will be within reach!”

Qin Han, with blood at the corner of his mouth, looked at him coldly, “A Devil Buddha achieving Dao is the greatest absurdity in the world.”

“This Future Buddha knows you are unconvinced, but what can you do? Proud as you are, without the power of the Great Dao by your side, you are still an ant,” the Future Buddha said.

“I said, the ninth True Spirit is right before your eyes.”

As he spoke, a small golden figure suddenly flew out, abruptly appearing before them.

At this moment, the world instantly solidified. Circles of Great Dao halos flowed around its entire body, exuding a mysterious aura.

“Hmm?” The Future Buddha noticed something amiss and frowned.

He clearly felt that the power of time in this place seemed to be mysteriously controlled.

“Boom!”

When Qin Han waved his large hand, a long river of time suddenly surged forth from the Void Realm.

Rolling waves washed over eternity, and ancient scenes appeared within the river.

The Primordial Era, the Barren Era…

The scenes kept changing until they reached the moment of their first encounter at Heavenly Yang Que.

“That is…” The Future Buddha’s expression changed drastically, and his state of mind was stirred.

Soon, they saw the scene before the Forbidden Sea Area, and then witnessed the battle between the two.

Scene after scene unfolded like a painting, clearly visible, as if it were yesterday.

“The River of Time? You can actually summon this river?” The Future Buddha’s heart trembled violently.

One must know that even someone as strong as him could only comprehend the Great Dao of Time by relying on this river.

Even though he had only grasped a superficial understanding, he could command the winds and clouds, single-handedly resist myriad evil devils, and be praised through the ages.

This Dao was reputed to be the most difficult to walk and the most difficult to touch in the ancient times.

The Future Buddha, with his extraordinary talent and great Opportunity, only qualified to touch its surface after accumulating infinite Karma.

Yet now, Qin Han could directly summon this river and stir the abundant Law of Time.

How could this not shock him?

However, that was not all. A figure in white robes suddenly appeared in the endless distance of the River of Time.

This person’s features were identical to Qin Han’s, with a faint smile on his lips. His every movement seemed to bring the world under his control.

Seeing this, the Future Buddha’s eyes widened, and he exclaimed, “Future Law?!”

He subconsciously retreated two steps, his heart pounding uncontrollably, his blood pressure soaring, and his face turning crimson.

Qin Han spread his hands wide and declared, “I was wrong from the beginning, and so were you.”

“The ninth deity doesn’t necessarily have to be a Primordial Ferocious; it can also be myself.”

“My future self.”

As soon as his voice fell, the Future Body stepped across the River of Time and walked towards Qin Han.

With each gentle step, the world trembled incessantly. The abyss itself could not withstand this violent upheaval, shaking madly.

Deep, bottomless ravines suddenly appeared, the Void Realm shattered, and the world’s grand momentum collapsed.

Like a scene of the apocalypse, the once invincible Northern Ice Cold State, a forbidden land, crumbled at this moment, with countless huge rocks and debris collapsing.

Everything in the path of the Future Body turned to dust, and rolling temporal torrents washed over space, distorting it.

“No, I can’t let him continue.” A strong sense of dread emerged in the Future Buddha’s heart.

He was actually feeling such an emotion towards a Martial Artist whose Realm was a level lower than his own.

Simply absurd!

“Rewind!”

The Future Buddha formed hand seals, pushing the power of time to its limit, veins bulging on his face.

However, his efforts were futile. No matter how he urged his power, he could not stop the actions of the Future Body.

“How is this possible? Stop, stop for this Future Buddha!” The Future Buddha finally panicked. He had schemed for so long, suppressing Qin Han with an invincible stance.

He had thought victory was assured, intending to subdue him.

He had also valued the opponent’s potential.

He never expected Qin Han to have a hidden trump card, and this trump card was the key to his breaking through his shackles!

The Future Buddha felt a huge threat and gritted his teeth, saying fiercely, “Since I can’t deal with your Future Body, then this Future Buddha will deal with you!”

With that, his three-zhang-tall body abruptly charged out, striking with a Buddhist Vajra Fist, aimed directly at Qin Han’s head.

The might of this punch was capable of destroying heaven and earth. The Future Buddha’s strength lay not only in the Dao of Time but also in supreme Buddhist Dharma.

At his Realm, merely having a physical body was already a burden.

If he could transcend, he would surely be a new Buddha Ancestor in the ancient times.

It was a pity that he had stumbled and fallen into sorrow. The Future Buddha was deeply affected by the Devilish Qi within Jiekong’s body, already becoming an evil entity.

Facing the unprecedentedly powerful Vajra Fist, Qin Han sneered repeatedly, “Do you really think I am an aphid that can be easily manipulated?”

He then raised his palm to meet the attack, his Immortal Body radiating brilliant light.

Boom!

The collision between the two erupted in terrifying aftershocks, instantly blasting a large hole in the abyss’s rock wall.

The violent aftershocks destroyed the earth and swept up to the Nine Heavens.

However, it was not the lower-Realm Qin Han who was sent flying, but the Future Buddha!

“Such monstrous strength!” The Future Buddha’s face was so gloomy it almost dripped water. All the power in his body gathered together, yet he couldn’t force Qin Han back.

The only Opportunity was thus wasted. The Future Body had already emerged from the River of Time and then entered the divine palace.

“The tide has turned. If you retreat now, you might still keep your dog life,” Qin Han said, his body being washed by endless vital Qi, his injuries recovering in an instant.

Under the protection of the Future Body, he no longer feared the influence and restraints of the Great Dao of Time.

In fact, he could now reach out and touch the legendary Great Dao of Time.

Invulnerability to all Laws was not a joke.

“To go or not to go?” The Future Buddha’s expression flickered uncertainly, his eyes filled with intense unwillingness.

He had clearly used his greatest trump card, yet he still couldn’t do anything to Qin Han.

Moreover, the Future Buddha’s power had even allowed the latter to seize a Breakthrough Opportunity.

It was as if all his efforts had served as a wedding dress for the other party.

The Future Buddha was so frustrated he almost vomited blood. He had already lost count of how many times this had happened.

He was filled with regret now. If he had known, he should have just killed Qin Han back then.

Instead of letting him live until now.

The saying “nurturing a tiger brings trouble” was not without reason. The chess piece that Jiekong had nurtured for so long ultimately backfired on him.

Now, he could only watch helplessly as the divine palace became covered in Immortal light, and the pillars were filled with the shadows of Immortal King palaces.

A majestic figure, looking down upon the Nine Heavens, sat cross-legged within the divine palace, suppressing the Nine Heavens.

Qin Han’s final step was extremely steady, yet it also revealed his immense ambition.

How could an ordinary person regard himself as a deity?

People had heard of inviting ancestors into the divine palace, and also of inviting divine objects of heaven and earth.

But inviting one’s future self…

This was the first time he had heard of it.
