The Bodhisattva corresponds to the Primordial Chaos Realm.

The Buddha corresponds to the World Realm.

The Ancestor of All Buddhas corresponds to the Civilization Realm.

For Grand Master Mo Jia of the Lantuo Monastery on the Great Snowy Mountain, his lifelong aspiration was merely to become a Bodhisattva; achieving Buddhahood was utterly impossible. In this region, reaching the Bodhisattva realm allowed one to ascend immediately, shattering the void and departing in broad daylight. Yet, he now encountered someone nearing the status of a Buddha. He couldn't help but gaze out, where, under the dazzling sunlight, a young man in green robes walked casually in the void, seeming like a Buddha yet not, like a god yet not.

Almost like a god or Buddha descending!

Strong!

Uncommonly strong!

Grand Master Mo Jia did not recognize this figure who seemed like a god or Buddha incarnate.

But beside Grand Master Mo Jia, someone shouted out, "It is Lu Yuan."

"Lu Yuan of the Three Myths of Mount Hua." Grand Master Mo Jia had rarely appeared in the last thousand years, mostly remaining in seclusion, so he did not know of this rising star, Lu Yuan. Though he himself didn't know him, others from the Great Yuan Kingdom certainly did, and they immediately roared out Lu Yuan’s identity: the third of the Three Myths of Mount Hua.

"Lu Yuan of the Three Myths of Mount Hua!" Although Grand Master Mo Jia didn't know Lu Yuan, he had certainly heard the name. Hadn't Lu Yuan’s strength only just reached the Primordial Chaos Realm a few years ago, just attaining the Bodhisattva stage? How could he now be on the verge of becoming a Buddha? The status of a Bodhisattva and a Buddha differed vastly.

"Indeed." Lu Yuan, bathed in sunlight, offered a smile: "If you had besieged Mount Hua, you would only find death."

With that, no more words were necessary. At this moment, for Lu Yuan to kill Grand Master Mo Jia required only a single move.

In an instant, Grand Master Mo Jia was defeated.

Many people from the Lantuo Monastery on the Great Snowy Mountain were still stationed there. But now that the people of Mount Hua saw their Sect Master Lu Yuan had returned, they naturally surged out, capturing all the remaining members of the Lantuo Monastery. Thus, the siege upon Mount Hua was entirely and cleanly lifted.

"Greetings, Sect Master."

"The Sect Master has returned."

Shouts of salutation rose one after another—Lu Yuan had always possessed exceptionally high prestige among the people of Mount Hua.

Lu Yuan descended before the two acting Sect Masters, Reverend Yuanyang and Reverend Zixia: "What is Ouyang Wang doing now? Where is he? I will go kill him." This was simple and straightforward. The people of the Central Heavenly Dynasty were strictly forbidden from deploying power at or above the fifth layer of the Primordial Chaos Realm in the Outer Domains—this was an iron rule.

Violation of this iron rule carried severe punishment.

Therefore, Lu Yuan had only used the magic power of the fourth layer of the Primordial Chaos Realm just now.

And against Ouyang Wang, the power of the fourth layer of the Primordial Chaos Realm was sufficient.

Moreover, this iron rule had provisions for flexibility, such as—if one's immediate family or originating sect faced great disaster, one could offer full assistance. If this clause were not allowed, it would be excessively inhumane. As for this battle against Ouyang Wang, he could actually bring out his full strength, and even if the enforcers arrived, it would be entirely justifiable, requiring no concern about violating regulations.

Reverend Yuanyang and Reverend Zixia also had immense confidence in Lu Yuan. Reverend Yuanyang immediately stated, "Ouyang Wang is currently in Dadu City, the capital of the Great Yuan Kingdom. He is hosting a Feast of the Three Kingdoms in Dadu City, demanding that all sects gather there to submit to him. If they refuse submission, there is only death—the annihilation of their lineage."

"Before this, he had already defeated all the sects, whether they were from Great Qin or Great Jin."

"So, I fear all the sects of the various nations must be rushing there now."

"His momentum toward unification is established."

"Dadu City?" Lu Yuan nodded: "Then I will make a trip to Dadu and wrench off Ouyang Wang's dog head." Ouyang Wang, who was causing chaos among the three kingdoms and was on the verge of unifying Qin, Jin, and Yuan, seemed remarkably weak in his hands, as if crushing an ant—this tone seemed incredibly arrogant, but in reality, it was simply a fact.

Below the World Realm, finding an equal was difficult, let alone someone like Ouyang Wang.

Of course, there was another thing he needed to do right now: enhance the strength of the Mount Hua personnel.

The strength of the Mount Hua disciples was truly too weak.

The gap between others and the Three Myths of Mount Hua was too significant.

Yan Cangtian was restricted everywhere because he had offended the Ancient Immortal Civilization.

Zhou Qingxuan did not wish to intervene due to past grievances and kindnesses with Mount Hua.

Previously, it was because his own strength was insufficient, but now that his power grew daily, he could certainly help the people of Mount Hua increase their strength.

For example, the two acting Sect Masters, Reverend Yuanyang and Reverend Zixia, had their cultivation significantly boosted, causing them both to reach the ninth heaven of the Great Dao Realm—advancing from the sixth heaven of the Great Dao Realm to the ninth heaven was a remarkable improvement. Of course, Lu Yuan did not raise them too quickly; if the increase was too drastic, their foundations would become unstable, making future advancements extremely difficult.

As for the original Ten Great True Disciples, Lu Yuan also paid attention, elevating their strength to the mid-stage of the Longevity Realm.

To augment the strength of others while stabilizing their foundations was not an easy task.

As a result, the power of Mount Hua suddenly surged.

"Oh, and a few insects." Lu Yuan shouted loudly. All the spies Ouyang Wang had dispatched to monitor Mount Hua died instantly, not a single one surviving to send a message out. This was the current level of Lu Yuan’s strength: traversing the six directions, sweeping across the universe, virtually omnipotent within the Three Kingdoms realm.

Having finished these matters, Lu Yuan naturally headed straight for Dadu.

Dadu was the capital of the Great Yuan Kingdom. When the Great Yuan Kingdom was established, the Yuan monarch desired to become the most powerful and authoritative figure in the vicinity, making Dadu the greatest capital city in the world, hence the name Dadu (Great Capital). However, things did not go as planned. Not only could they not compete with the powerful Qin Kingdom in the distance, but they could not even surpass the neighboring Jin Kingdom. They occasionally managed to gain a small advantage over Jin, only to suffer greater losses immediately afterward.

But this time was drastically different from usual.

This time, Ouyang Wang of Myriad Snake Manor emerged from seclusion, possessing a strength that faintly hinted at shattering the void and ascending. The most renowned aspect of the Great Jin Kingdom over the past thousand years had been the Three Myths of Mount Hua, which kept the Great Yuan Kingdom perpetually oppressed. Now, Jin had finally produced a mythological figure.

Furthermore, Ouyang Wang had beaten Mount Hua into closing its gates, threatening to destroy the sect in a month.

The other four of the Five Great Immortal Sects of Jin—excluding the Mount Hua Immortal Sect—namely the Wudang Immortal Sect, Kunlun Immortal Sect, Qingcheng Immortal Sect, and South Sea Immortal Sect, were all defeated in combat and reluctantly submitted to Ouyang Wang. The four major Immortal Sects of the Great Qin Kingdom—the No Sword Immortal Sect, the Carefree Immortal Sect, the Great Dharma Pagoda Temple, and the Scarlet Dragon Immortal Sect—each far stronger than upper-tier sects like the Wudang Immortal Sect, had all lost to Ouyang Wang and finally submitted under his rule.

And this Dadu Assembly was clearly designed to satisfy Ouyang Wang’s vanity.

Ouyang Wang demanded that all the holy lands of the Great Yuan Kingdom, his own Myriad Snake Manor, Esoteric Buddhism, the Lantuo Monastery on the Great Snowy Mountain, the four Immortal Sects of Jin (Wudang, Kunlun, Qingcheng, South Sea), and the four truly major Immortal Sects of Great Qin (No Sword Immortal Sect, Carefree Immortal Sect, Dharma Pagoda Temple, Scarlet Dragon Immortal Sect), along with other upper-tier immortal divisions, come to Dadu to worship him, aiming to realize the unification of the three kingdoms under Great Yuan.

The conflict between Yuan, Qin, and Jin was concluding with the final victory of Great Yuan.

When Lu Yuan arrived in Dadu, the atmosphere there was remarkably strange. How to describe it? The native people of Dadu, the people of the Great Yuan Kingdom, felt unparalleled glory. They had conquered the three kingdoms and unified them; how proud and arrogant they were now.

"Hahaha, so what if Great Qin always boasted of being the strongest? Aren't they obediently under the rule of our Great Yuan now?"

"That's right. The Mount Hua Sect of Great Jin, which boasted of having the Three Myths of Mount Hua, must now submit obediently."

"Our Great Yuan Kingdom only needed one Myth—Ouyang—to unify the three kingdoms. Our Great Yuan is truly exceptional."

"The time has come for us to dominate both Qin and Jin."

"Hahahaha."

"The only remaining Immortal Sect, Mount Hua, relies only on its sword energy barrier. Once that barrier disappears, they too will have to submit to our Great Yuan."

"The Mount Hua Immortal Sect is the last to join; we must crush them the hardest. Afterward, the men of Mount Hua must become slaves, and the women, maids."

The natives of the Great Yuan Kingdom were immensely satisfied and exceedingly arrogant. Many cultivators from Great Yuan even began molesting the female cultivators from Great Qin and Great Jin. The Great Yuan Kingdom was located in the extremely cold, desolate south, and the local women were not attractive. The delicate charm of the female cultivators from Qin and Jin, resembling the elegance of Jiangnan ladies, proved irresistible to the people of Great Yuan.

In truth, Qin and Jin wished to resist, but the power disparity was too great. Ouyang Wang’s strength was too immense, and those who dared to resist had already been executed.

"Haha, isn't this Miss Zhong Ling, the eldest daughter of Zhong Yuqing, the Sect Master of the No Sword Immortal Sect of Great Qin? Haha, I never expected to meet you here. Would you care to accompany me to cultivate the Joyful Union Zen?" Beside a veiled young girl, a flippant voice suddenly rang out.

Under normal circumstances, the young lady of a major Immortal Sect like the No Sword Immortal Sect would receive relatively decent treatment even after surrendering. Few people would dare to harass her.

But the person issuing the frivolous voice was no ordinary person; he was Ouyang Xing, the son of Ouyang Wang. Ouyang Xing was now the honored young master of the unified three kingdoms, possessing extraordinarily high status. Ouyang Xing stared at the veiled girl in a red quju dress before him, his eyes gleaming with lust. He had previously desired Miss Zhong Ling, but at that time, his status was far below that of the young mistress of a major Immortal Sect. When he sought to propose marriage, he was nearly beaten away.

However, fortune had turned. He never imagined his father, who had disappeared for nearly a thousand years, would return and unify the three kingdoms in one stroke, becoming a legend.

Consequently, his status soared along with his father's.

He was now planning to use violent coercion to make Zhong Ling his concubine.

And Zhong Ling, with a sharp blade concealed in her hand, was preparing for a desperate fight. She absolutely refused to suffer humiliation; at worst, she would commit suicide right there.
