"What's going on? Why is the old beggar here? " Xuanyuan looked at the old man in front of him. He had a kind face and held a bamboo pole. His expression was peaceful and he didn't give off any sense of danger. He looked exactly like the old beggar, which made Xuanyuan's heart churn.
He looked at the Great Path Cage with lingering fear. If he hadn't reacted fast enough, he would have been trapped in the Great Path Cage. The old beggar wouldn't have attacked him.
"Who is this old man?" The Greedy Old Man was very confused. In Yaozongtian, he could see his ancestors.
Xuanyuan was an orphan without parents. In his previous life, he only saw the old beggar as his family. In this life, the Greedy Old Man had witnessed Xuanyuan's growth, but he had never seen this face. He was very confused and felt that something was wrong.
"I don't know either." Xuanyuan could only answer the Greedy Old Man like this. He asked, "What is this Yaozongtian?"
"There is a saying in the human race, 'Glory to your ancestors'. Once you step into the Sage Realm, you are considered to be a Glory to your ancestors. Here, you can talk to your ancestors and get what you want. Of course, this ancestor might not be real. It could be condensed from the power of the Great Path," the Greedy Old Man said seriously.
"Similarly, it could be a part of your ancestor's will, so you have to think about it."
"I see." Xuanyuan's heart settled. It seemed that it wasn't the old beggar. In his previous life, the old beggar didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. If he had some strength, he wouldn't have frozen to death on the street. Now, the old beggar in front of him gave him the feeling that he was unfathomable.
"Xuanyuan, I didn't expect you to grow up so much. In my memory, it seems like it was only yesterday that I took you to the streets to beg. You always liked to sneak to that stinky fortune-teller and listen to his nonsense." The old beggar looked at Xuanyuan. His voice was very gentle and his eyes were full of love, as if he was looking at his own younger generation.
The exact same appearance and the exact same demeanor made Xuanyuan unable to tell whether it was real or fake. If it wasn't for the old beggar, how could he know this? Xuanyuan listened to the old beggar's words and felt very warm in his heart, as if the past was still vivid in his mind.
"You don't believe it's me? After I died, you even buried me. I saw it with my own eyes. My heart ached, but there was nothing I could do. You couldn't hear what I was saying. "
"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Xuanyuan calmed himself down. His expression didn't change, and his tone was very calm.
"It's nothing. Slowly, you'll understand." The old man stepped forward and gently lifted the bamboo pole in his hand. The Great Path of Heaven and Earth fell down and attacked Xuanyuan. Each of the Great Path was heavy and could split mountains and stones. Its power was boundless.
The Great Path of Heaven and Earth here made Xuanyuan involuntarily feel a sense of suffocation. The strength was secondary. More importantly, every wisp of Qi could hit the depths of his heart. This was a kind of spiritual shock.
"Greedy Old Man, what is the most terrifying tribulation in Yaozongtian?" Xuanyuan thought.
"Everyone's tribulation is different. The Devouring Emperor's tribulation is called Body Severing Tribulation." The Greedy Old Man knew that Xuanyuan was definitely hiding something from him, but he didn't ask.
"What kind of tribulation is that?" Xuanyuan said solemnly.
"Severing your own body." The Greedy Old Man didn't say much. Everyone's tribulation was different.
Xuanyuan frowned and said solemnly, "If my body is severed, can I still live?"
"I don't know. It's up to you." The Greedy Old Man didn't want to say much. Xuanyuan's tribulation should be passed by himself. It wouldn't be good for others to talk about it.
"Do you have a guilty conscience? Why don't you admit it? "The old beggar asked again.
"Fine, let me try you." Xuanyuan formed a sun seal with his left hand and a moon seal with his right. The sun and moon blended together and attacked the old man.
The old man didn't move. He looked at Xuanyuan and smiled, "You're finally willing to admit it?"
"I've always dared to admit it. I just didn't know what tricks you had up your sleeves. Now let me see how strong you are." The sun and moon seal in Xuanyuan's hand smashed down.
The old man stood there quietly with a bamboo pole in his hand. He smiled and didn't move. He didn't fight back at all. In an instant, he was smashed into pieces by Xuanyuan. At that moment, Xuanyuan felt an indescribable sense of loss. It was as if he had killed the old beggar. He regretted it.
The old beggar's body turned into light and drifted between heaven and earth. He only left behind a voice with a hint of reluctance.
"I really miss the days when I peeped at Widow Zhao bathing with you. Her skin was white and tender. It was so beautiful. I really wanted to touch it. You have to take good care of yourself in the future." The old beggar sighed.
"Old beggar …" Xuanyuan's heart tightened. He knew that the old beggar was really dead. What happened just now was just a dream.
"Who's the old beggar?" asked the Greedy Old Man.
However, I'm not from this world. I came from a foreign world. I don't know how I ended up here, but I was led into this body by you. The old beggar took me in in my last life. I'm still alive because of him. That's why I've never told anyone about it. "Xuanyuan didn't hide anything from Greed." That's why I'm in the Body of All Creations. I'm not from this world, I'm from another world. I don't know what happened, but I ended up here.
"So that's how it is. I was wondering why you would have such a strange idea. You don't even think it's okay to have three wives and four concubines …" The Greedy Old Man suddenly understood. He didn't care that Xuanyuan had hidden it from him for so long.
Invisibly, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth descended and filled every corner of Xuanyuan's body. It made him feel that both his body and soul had a qualitative leap.
The Great Dao Laws gradually merged with Xuanyuan's flesh, blood, and soul. It constantly improved everything about Xuanyuan. From the Supreme Sky Immortal Realm to the Sage Realm, there was a huge threshold. Xuanyuan felt that his strength was many times stronger than before.
He originally thought that it would be extremely dangerous to pass this Body-Severing Tribulation. He didn't expect it to pass so quickly.
Xuanyuan calmed his heart and began to merge the Great Dao Laws into his body.
Time passed bit by bit. Xuanyuan felt that countless Great Dao Laws had filled up his body. Even though he was the All Creations Body, he couldn't withstand so many Great Dao Laws.
Xuanyuan suddenly understood what the Body-Severing Tribulation was.
When a person reached a certain level, he had to cut off the unnecessary things in his body and leave behind the useful ones.
Over the years, Xuanyuan had devoured the flesh and blood of countless enemies and obtained many magical techniques. However, in reality, these did not help him much. They only gave him an understanding, but they remained in his body.
Xuanyuan carefully combed through everything in his body. He saw the Great Dao Laws condensed into a sharp sword and slashed towards Xuanyuan's body. Countless magical techniques were broken. Those miscellaneous things turned into nothingness in an instant. To a certain extent, these were like the impurities contained in the body during cultivation.
Every type of magical technique was formed according to different people's different understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Now, what Xuanyuan wanted to do was to cut off these people's understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, leaving only his own.
This included the Great Dao Laws of the Yin Family, the Five-Element Devouring Immortal Technique, and all the other magical techniques that he had painstakingly obtained in the past. They were all cut off by Xuanyuan. His own path was unique. The paths of others could only be used as a reference for a while. If he walked the path that they had left behind, then his achievements in this lifetime would be limited. At the very least, he would not be able to go further than them.
Now that Xuanyuan had walked his own path, he only needed to follow this path and continue to forge ahead. As for where he could go, it would depend on Xuanyuan's own fate.
During this period of time, Xuanyuan constantly used the Great Dao Laws to cut off the miscellaneous parts of his body. He got rid of the coarse parts and took the essence. Every day, Xuanyuan advanced by leaps and bounds and became a brand new version of himself.
Now, all that Xuanyuan had left in his body were the ancient techniques that he had mastered, as well as the Art of Devouring. After refining many techniques, the Art of Devouring had long reached the realm of supreme Taoism.
There were a total of eight levels in the Sage Realm.
The first ten levels of the Supreme Sky Immortal Realm were for people to understand the laws of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth: wind, thunder, rain, lightning, stars, sun and moon, balance, yin and yang, and wisdom.
In order for a sky and a world to be born, someone had to become the ruler. At this time, one had to cultivate.
If one wanted to cultivate, one had to first sever one's body. If one couldn't make some sacrifices, one's achievements were destined to be limited.
Right now, Xuanyuan was in the first level of the Sage Realm. Many people in this level had too many things they couldn't bear to part with. In the end, the Great Dao Laws they could draw into their bodies were limited, so their strength wasn't that strong. Not everyone could attract the Body-Severing Tribulation.
Xuanyuan opened his eyes and felt that his body was no longer as simple as a flesh body, but a carrier of the Great Dao. His body contained many Great Dao Laws, and his battle qi also contained the Great Dao Laws.
"Haha, kid, not bad. It seems that your comprehension is very good. You know what to keep and what to give up." The Greedy Old Man was very happy for Xuanyuan. Along the way, he didn't give too many pointers to Xuanyuan. It was all Xuanyuan's own comprehension.
"Although I still want to break through a few more levels, after thinking about it, I'll forget about it. I'll consolidate my realm first. Next time, I should be able to break through a few levels." Xuanyuan stood up and stepped out of the 36 levels of the minor world.
"Dogs of the Zongheng Sect, let's see if you can survive this time."
