Daoism Revival System: Start with fighting against Debunker Streamer

Chapter 630 - 629: The Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader’s Cause of Death Revealed, Returning to the Past to Capture Donglai [Part 1]

The years change, space-time reverses.

Lin Heng vanished from the present, appearing a hundred years prior.

Beneath him, the great river of space-time surged turbulently, Lin Heng stood at the crest, surveying his surroundings.

Upon discovering it was still the Southern Immortal Realm, his senses immediately spread in all directions, illuminating the world, dispelling the fog, penetrating the entire Grand Thousand Upper Realm.

Then his gaze turned cold, heading westward.

Once he disappeared.

The surrounding area erupted in voices of surprise and doubt.

"Strange, the Daoist Lord from the Dao Immortal Court? Didn’t he just chase the East Buddha to the west? How did he suddenly return here out of thin air?"

Many Immortals wore bewildered expressions, feeling a momentary daze.

Some Quasi-Saints, however, exclaimed in shock, "Is this his future self? My God, he can also summon his future self?"

Just moments ago.

Leading over a dozen Quasi-Saints to attack the Eastern Desolate Daoist Court’s East Buddha, they returned in failure due to being blocked by Demon Realm Quasi-Saints.

On their way back.

They unexpectedly encountered the Lord of the Dao Court, who had escaped after causing havoc in the Buddha Country.

Then they were pursued by the Daoist Lord.

Because of this, the Joyful Buddha perished.

As for the East Buddha, he used his Time Law to summon his future self for assistance.

At this very moment.

In the chase and escape, they were on the border between the Southern Immortal Realm and the Buddha Country.

As a result, there was already a Lin Heng over there, and here another Lord of the Dao Court appeared, causing the Quasi-Saints on all sides to be astounded.

...

Now speaking of the moment.

At the western border.

The East Buddha, who had escaped to this world, was already in a broken state, weakened to the extreme.

Even teaming up with the ’himself’ of this world, he was powerless against this world’s ’Lin Heng’.

In the face of adversity.

It was Luminous Ancient Buddha, overlooking the world, his killing intent pouring down towards this world’s ’Lin Heng’.

Lin Heng, who had pursued here from the future, witnessed this familiar scene from a hundred years ago, and suddenly understood why Luminous Ancient Buddha willingly humbled himself, disregarding the consequences to take action against him.

Evidently.

Luminous Ancient Buddha had already glimpsed the future a hundred years ago.

So he wanted to eliminate all risks at this moment.

However, Ancestral Master Shangqing, Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader, traversed across space-time to intercept Luminous Ancient Buddha.

"Ancestral Master..."

The Lin Heng from a hundred years later, upon witnessing the moment Ancestral Master Shangqing came stepping on the long river of space-time, couldn’t help but feel his eyes sting.

His past self did not know the cost of crossing space-time to intervene in events from another time point.

But after comprehending the Space-Time Rules himself, Lin Heng understood the kind of karmic backlash one would suffer for meddling in worldly affairs of another time...

Such a cost is unbearable for anyone!

And the Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader, whose killing prowess ranks top among all Saints from past to present, eventually fell not long after, tracing back to the root, it was actually due to this very day!

"So, at the time, Ancestral Master had already foreseen his end was near, which is why he entrusted the Four Immortal Slaying Swords and the Sword Array, which could stand proudly among all Saints, at his end..."

With a clear understanding of past details, Lin Heng felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.

...

Ancestral Master Shangqing and Saint Luminous went to another space-time for a great battle.

Thus their departure was swift, and their return equally as quick.

It seemed like merely a moment had passed, and the battle had concluded.

Just like a hundred years ago.

The only one to return was Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader, stepping on the long river of space-time.

The only difference was.

Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader, after instructing the Lin Heng of a hundred years ago, had another moment of eye contact across the river of space-time with the future Lin Heng who’d chased the East Buddha back to this world.

"Ancestral Master..." Lin Heng’s eyes turned red, his voice heavy, knowing the root of Ancestral Master’s downfall, his heart was filled with guilt.

"It’s okay," Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader said with a smile, incredibly carefree, always maintaining his youthful appearance, his whole being exuded an aura as sharp and rebellious as the Immortal Slaying Sword, fearless.

"You reaching this point proves everything I’ve done today is worth it."

"Everyone dies, who in the world doesn’t? No need for sorrow!"

"Hold yourself together, from now on, the things you need to do are bigger than the heavens."

"Don’t complain, understand?"

Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader laughed freely, though he was in a dying body, he shone as brightly as the rising sun, illuminating the world, making one fearless of all darkness.

Lin Heng, with tears in his eyes, shouted loudly, "Disciple will remember the teachings of Ancestral Master, even if the sky falls, the will of this disciple shall never diminish!"

"Good, good."

Laughing, Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader, along with the river beneath his feet, gradually dissipated.

Lin Heng and his past self bowed at the same time, "We respectfully send off Ancestral Master Shangqing!"

After a long while, emotions calmed.

Lin Heng suddenly reached out a large hand, pulling the East Buddha, hidden and lurking in this world, out of the void.

At this moment, the East Buddha had been scared out of his wits.

He never expected that after secretly returning to this world, he would still be detected by the other.

"Luminous Ancient Buddha save me, Luminous Ancient Buddha save me..." East Buddha cried out miserably, looking around helplessly, yet the shadow of Saint Luminous never arrived.

Lin Heng, on the other hand, exchanged a glance with his past self.

The two said nothing, asked nothing, only nodded to each other.

Then Lin Heng, like carrying a chick, lifted the East Buddha and disappeared into the river of space-time.

He could not directly kill the East Buddha.

At least with his current strength, he was not enough to withstand the backlash of time.

Because the East Buddha he had captured was the future East Buddha, to kill, he must return to the original time point to do so.

Otherwise, even if it did not affect the past.

One would inevitably suffer a karmic backlash.

...

The original Jambudvipa Continent region.

Above the sky.

With a flash of white light, a great river appeared once again.

Lin Heng brought the East Buddha, jumping off the wave, returning to this world.

At that time, the gaze of the powerful from various forces had yet to disperse.

Upon seeing the captured Primordial Spirit of East Buddha brought back, everyone was left in a stunned state.

This was terrifying.

Even escaping into the river of time, he was still caught and brought back.

The power of that Taixu Celestial Venerable had truly reached an unimaginable level among contemporary Quasi-Saints...

Upon seeing Lin Heng return, the worry in Cyan Snake’s beautiful eyes dissipated, replaced by the sorrow of her sister’s death.

She had no strength to look at that East Buddha, her heart filled with bitterness.

"Ancient Buddha, save me, I don’t want to die..."

East Buddha cried out mournfully towards the Outer Heaven Universe, though he had just experienced a hundred years of escape, to the present world it was just a moment.

Thus, the projection of Saint Luminous was still in the Outer Heaven Universe, not yet dissipated.

Or rather, he was still furious from Lin Heng’s angry words, ’I owe you nothing.’

But what difference does it make?

His true form was on a mysterious battlefield in another space-time, it was impossible for him to cross the long river of space-time to save him.

He was not the Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader!

"Alas..."

Luminous Ancient Buddha looked at the pleading East Buddha, let out a sigh, and with a cold glance at Lin Heng, ultimately chose to retreat.
