As soon as the words "Purple Cloud Palace" came out of their mouths, they realized something was wrong. The dark chaotic space in front of them started to crack, and the other stopped the cracks from spreading. This strange change scared them so much that they shut their mouths immediately.
After a long time, the giant tried hard to control his voice and said in a very low voice, "Excuse me, who are you?"
Originally, he wanted to ask the name of the beautiful woman in the Tai Chi robe in front of him, but as soon as he was about to speak, he realized that he didn't know what the idioms here were. If he exposed his identity, he might get into big trouble. Therefore, he hurriedly changed his words and asked in an ordinary and direct manner.
Seeing that there were no cracks in the dark space in front of him, the giant secretly felt relieved. Fortunately, he could control it, or he would not dare to speak in the future.
"Upper I, uh, Tai Chi Taoist, nice to meet you." Shangguan Piaoxue clenched her fists and almost said her real name. She had just been born in that dark place, how could she have a name? Therefore, she used the Tai Chi Taoist name that she had felt in the past 100 years as her Taoist name, imitating the genteel Taoist language in the novels and dramas.
"I have just broken free and don't have a name yet. Well, I might as well choose one now. Let's call me Li Gu." The giant cupped his hands and bowed, secretly happy. It seemed that the style of speaking here was the same as his, and he was not afraid of giving himself away.
But would she have the same experience as him? At the thought of this, Li Gu's heart raised a hint of vigilance.
Shangguan Piaoxue was quite happy. "Then I will also choose a secular name. Well, I will be called Shangguan Piaoxue. By the way, do you know where this place is?" From the origin of her body, she already had some understanding of this dark and lifeless place. In addition to the myths and legends she had heard before, she understood a lot more. But before she got confirmation, everything was still a guess.
Li Gu shook his head warily. "I don't know."
Shangguan Piaoxue thought for a while and said, "Then let's go to the Purple Cloud Palace and ask."
"We need to be careful, maybe there is danger inside!" Li Gu quickly waved his hand.
Shangguan Piaoxue smiled sweetly. "We are just going to ask some irrelevant things, and we have no evil intentions. How can there be danger? Besides, even if there's danger, it's not like I can't protect myself. "
After he finished speaking, he did not look at Li Gu and strode towards the ordinary-looking Taoist temple, the Purple Cloud Palace. This fellow born from the chaos was really timid. Suddenly, a sense of superiority welled up in him.
"So thoughtless and reckless. It seems that she really was born from the chaos." Li Gu looked at Shangguan Piaoxue's back and sneered in his heart.
As a cultivator, Li Gu's cultivation was not high, but he still had quite a lot of knowledge. Although there were no ancient or ancient cultivators who had personally witnessed the creation of the world, there were many legends that had been passed down. In addition to the memories that came from the source of his body, he was more or less certain that after his death, he had been reincarnated into this world before the creation of the world. Moreover, his cultivation and strength had far exceeded that of the past. If the present was the sun, then the past was just a firefly.
"I'm afraid that even those high and mighty Grandmasters and Venerables would not be able to withstand a casual attack from me." Li Gu clasped his hands behind his back and watched Shangguan Piaoxue walk towards the Purple Cloud Palace. He was full of ambition and confidence, but suddenly a thought flashed through his mind and his nature as a cultivator flared up. "Will there be great benefits in the Purple Cloud Palace?"
His expression changed, and he struggled to make a decision. Seeing that Shangguan Piaoxue was about to reach the Taoist temple, Li Gu made up his mind and quickly chased after her. Finally, he caught up with Shangguan Piaoxue at the wide open dark-yellow door. He revealed a handsome smile and said, "How can I let Fellow Shangguan take the risk alone?"
Shangguan Piaoxue raised her head slightly and felt a little proud. She had a better impression of Li Gu. "The door of the Purple Cloud Palace is wide open. It seems that people are not allowed to enter." As she spoke, she strode in.
When Li Gu took a step towards the door, he realized that his body was too big, and the door was too small. But before he had time to think, he felt an inexplicable force coming from the inner door, and then he involuntarily shrank and returned to his normal height.
He followed Shangguan Piaoxue through the door in bewilderment. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. Behind the door was the main hall. It was about a hundred feet in radius, and above it was a platform half the height of a person. There was an apricot-yellow cattail hassock on the hassock, and on the hassock sat a young Taoist in a plain green Taoist robe. He had an otherworldly grace and temperament.
In front of this young Taoist was an ordinary small bell. But if one looked closely, they would feel dizzy and their minds would be shaken. They would be slow, stagnant, or fast. Below the platform, there were nine similar apricot-yellow cattail hassock arranged in a row.
Li Gu and Shangguan Piaoxue shook their heads to get rid of the feeling of their minds being shaken. They did not understand what was going on, but they did not dare to look at the small bell again.
"This Taoist, how should I address you?" Shangguan Piaoxue asked cautiously, influenced by this feeling and the silence in the main hall.
Then they saw the young Taoist smile and say, "I am Tianxuan, and I open a platform to preach Taoism here. Once a hundred years, until the heaven and earth are created."
Creation of heaven and earth? It was really in the chaos! Shangguan Piaoxue was completely sure of her guess. She blurted out excitedly, "Are you the incarnation of the Heavenly Axiom here?"
Li Gu's heart shuddered. Could it really be the incarnation of the Dao in the legends? No wonder his body was shrunk without any struggle.
Shi Xuan shook his head. His eyes were half-closed, but he did not speak anymore. He joked in his heart, "No, I was just passing by."
Seeing this young Taoist not saying anything, Shangguan Piaoxue and Li Gu looked at each other. Shangguan Piaoxue said, "Taoist, aren't you going to preach Taoism?"
"Wait," Shi Xuan said softly.
The two looked at each other but did not dare to communicate with each other. They looked at the nine apricot-yellow cattail hassocks, walked over, and sat down cross-legged. They closed their eyes and meditated like the Taoist above.
Not long after, a strange creature that looked like a fish and a bird with a strong aura of destruction came in through the main door. He was slightly startled when he saw this scene, and then turned into a black-robed, cold-faced man. He walked to the apricot-yellow cattail hassocks beside Li Gu and sat down. He used the Primordial Knowledge he had just mastered to ask Li Gu, "I Yue Xiang, may I ask where is this Purple Cloud Palace?"
When Li Gu answered him, he looked at the young Taoist above with surprise. He followed the two beside him and closed his eyes to wait.
After that, another five creatures came in one after another. There was a Bodhi tree that seemed to be transcendent, a green lotus that was full of killing intent, a black and white lotus embryo, and so on. After asking their questions, they turned into human forms and sat on the apricot-yellow cattail hassocks.
At this time, two strange creatures came in side by side. One had a human face and a snake body, it was crimson and scaleless. The other had six legs and four wings, it was headless and faceless, its crimson like an elixir fire. After the two of them came in, they saw that there were already eight people sitting on the nine apricot-yellow cattail hassocks. They suddenly had a thought, "This apricot-yellow cattail hassocks looks like there are only nine of them. Although I don't know the benefits of sitting on the cattail hassocks, it's definitely better than sitting on the jade bricks in the hall!"
With this thought, the two of them flew over at the same time. The six-legged, four-winged bird pierced through space and was about to land on the cattail hassocks when it suddenly felt its mind shake. The surroundings swayed, and it fell out. It watched as the human-faced snake turned into a white-haired elder and sat on the cattail hassocks.
It snorted hatefully, turned into a golden-robed middle-aged man, and sat behind Li Gu.
This fight for the cattail hassocks made the eight who already had a cattail hassocks secretly happy. It was good that they came early.
There was no time keeping track in the chaos. After a long time, the forty-nine natural deities finally arrived and sat down.
"In the future, when you listen to the Dao, you will sit according to today's seating arrangement. You are not allowed to snatch, unless you are willing to exchange." Shi Xuan opened his eyes and said calmly, "All of you are innate deities born from the chaos. You are born strong, and each of you represents the origin of the laws of heaven and earth. In the future, you will be an important part of the creation of heaven and earth, and the evolution of the Great Thousand. Therefore, I will preach here, in order to guide all of you on the right path."
"Innate deity? He actually became a deity! " Forty-nine thoughts rose in their minds at the same time, but they dared not let the people around them see their ecstasy, lest they give themselves away. "This Daoist is really the incarnation of the Great Dao!"
Li Gu was the first to react, and he blurted out the thing he was most concerned about, "Daoist, no, Teacher Tianxuan, how long is the lifespan of an innate deity?" The other people's ears immediately perked up.
"As long as heaven and earth, but there will be a heavenly tribulation in about a million years. Whether you can survive or not depends on whether you can control your temperament," Shi Xuan answered calmly.
"As long as heaven and earth?!"
"A million years!"
Voices rose one after another, and the two had almost the same meaning in everyone's mind. They could no longer suppress their joy.
Shi Xuan interrupted their joy, and he continued, "Other than the heavenly tribulation, you will also have to face the death tribulation. The biggest tribulation will be in about 900 years. When the heaven and earth are created, the four elements will erupt, and the survivors will be few. "
Cold water was poured over everyone's head, and the excited atmosphere stopped abruptly. They all asked respectfully and urgently, "Teacher Tianxuan, do you have a way to avoid the tribulations?"
"One main and one auxiliary, two paths. The main path is to listen to I's preaching, control your temperament, and improve your cultivation. The auxiliary path is to first suppress the innate deity that represents the Law of Destruction. That way, the power of destruction will be much weaker," Shi Xuan said expressionlessly.
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at Yue Xiang. With the connection between the innate deities, and the uncontrollable aura of destruction, they could easily recognize that he was the innate deity that represented the Law of Destruction.
"You!" Yue Xiang was shocked and angry. Most of the gazes were malicious.
They looked at Yue Xiang and looked for the innate deity that could suppress the power of destruction. Then, they looked at Shangguan Piao Xue.
Shangguan Piao Xue looked at Yue Xiang's shocked and angry expression, and her heart softened. She stood up and said loudly, "How can you suppress Dao Friend Yue with something that you haven't done?!"
"If this is the case, and if there is another tribulation in the future, and one of you is suppressed or even killed without doing anything evil, how will you feel? Do unto others what you do not want others to do unto you! "
Everyone who had their own ulterior motives became silent and hesitant. No one wanted to be treated as a sacrifice.
Shangguan Piao Xue was very satisfied with the situation, and she continued, "There are 49 of us, and we are all very strong. If we can work together, what tribulation can't we overcome?"
Everyone nodded subconsciously, and it came from the satisfaction and confidence in their current strength.
A clear bell rang, and waves of ripples spread out. The Candle Dragon's eyes instantly widened, and Shi Xuan said calmly, "The preaching begins."
