Heavenly Lord Yuanyu and Zhao Gongming met a few seniors from Daoism. These Celestial Venerables of Daira all had strange and ancient faces. They wore elegant hats and were overflowing with Dao Qi. They were all ancient immortals of the Mystic Door with extraordinary cultivation. It was just that each of them was a little dull. Their appearances were the same as those of the Taiyi Era. They were formed by the Connate Inextinguishable Spirit Light, so they could reflect one's heart.
River Styx's Inextinguishable Spirit Light was abnormally agile and full of vitality, so it manifested the appearance of a youth.
Even ancient powerhouses like Heavenly Lord Yuanshi and Taishang Dao Lord only manifested the appearance of a youth or a middle-aged man. Moreover, their Spirit Light wasn't twilight. It was only because their statuses were too high that they had to appear more mature.
As for the Daira Celestial Venerables that Zhao Gongming brought Yuan Yu to visit, they all had ethereal auras, long eyebrows, and long beards. They were full of Dao Qi and Immortal Qi, but not human. To Heavenly Lord Yuanyu, they were truly Daoist experts with extraordinary auras.
However, after Zhao Gongming left, he sighed. "Seniors, your auras are becoming more and more lofty!"
Yuan Yu asked curiously, "These Celestial Venerables of Daira have a deep understanding of the essence of the Great Dao. Every move they make is in harmony with the Dao. They are truly like true immortals … Compared to Patriarch River Styx, who shamelessly makes things difficult for juniors, they are so much better … These seniors look more like true immortals of Daira … Why does Elder Brother sound so regretful?"
Zhao Gongming said in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist Yuan Yu, do you remember what I told you about Daira having no tribulations but three to worry about?"
Yuan Yu nodded. "Patriarch River Styx, forcefully plundering the demonic affinity is a tribulation. The remaining Daoists haven't explained it to me."
Zhao Gongming sighed. "These are just some twists and turns. They can't hurt our Daira. At most, we'll just be a little embarrassed! What's truly troubling me, Daira, is the trouble of Daira losing me. "
"Fellow Daoist, are you talking about the tribulations of losing me after being severed and forced to become chaotic gods and demons? Patriarch Nether River explained to me that when I first came here, I saw a fellow Daoist who had turned into a connate spirit treasure and was taken in by a Buddhist monk. "
"I brought you to see the 24 Celestial Venerables of Daira, Fellow Daoist Yuan Yu." Zhao Gongming reminded him.
'Twenty-four Heavenly Venerables of the Great Heavens …' Heavenly Venerable Yuanyu secretly recalled. The inextinguishable spiritual light of the twenty-four Heavenly Venerables seemed to faintly connect into one. Their Dao charm was round like a pearl, and there was also a faint clear aura that seemed to contain a world within the spiritual light.
He lowered his voice and said with a hint of shock in his tone, "Could those 24 fellow Daoists be the ones behind the 24 Sea Calming Pearls?!"
Zhao Gongming nodded sadly. "They are my twenty-four senior brothers!"
"Gongming was fortunate to be fated with Senior Brothers. With their help, I attained Dao."
Although Yuan Yu was prepared, he was still shocked by the truth. "Wasn't this numinous treasure …"
"Daoist Randeng had achieved the Dao long before me. He had long been friends with the 24 Fellow Daoists. However, Master had given me the Sea Calming Pearl. When I had yet to achieve the Dao in my early years, I had relied on this treasure to be rather domineering. Later on, the God-Conferment War had offended Daoist Randeng. He snatched the treasure away. Because he was close to my senior brothers, they helped him evolve the 24 heavens. After I escaped, they found an opportunity to return to me. Later, with their help, I attained Daira Dao. "Zhao Gongming narrated the cause and effect, his tone containing a hint of warning.
"If these 24 Heavenly Venerables of Daira were your senior brothers, wouldn't they be direct disciples of Numinous Treasure? How could they …" Heavenly Venerable Yuan Yu asked in disbelief.
"That's why Daira lost me … The few senior brothers attained Dao the earliest. They were taken in when the three teachers first proved the orthodox Pangu Dao and opened the door. After the world was created, Daira was not as it is now. There were only a few hundred of them, and most of them were ancient gods and savage divine beasts. After the three teachers created the world, there were more connate lifeforms and gods formed by the three teachers' Three Origins Ancestral Qi. The three teachers took in many disciples in order to expand our Dao."
"Among them, Great Heavenly Venerable Numinous Treasure took in the most disciples. Later, some of his disciples stood out and attained Daira Dao!"
"At that time, the congenital conditions of the Primordial World were really superior. Pangu was transformed from the three teachers, so the Essence Qi was the most compatible with the Three Pure Ones. Daira's conditions for attaining Dao were unique. The few senior brothers attained Dao long before the first tribulation. "
"Later on, I realized that blessings are always accompanied by misfortune …"
"Daira lost me. Firstly, his foundation was destroyed, and he became a Chaos Godfiend. The Chaos Godfiend was close to the Dao. Secondly, he lived for too long. He comprehended the Great Dao and gradually approached the Dao … The closer he was to the Dao, the further he was from others. His seven emotions and six desires were gradually worn away, and there was nothing he cared about in his heart! For example, the few senior brothers could be said to have already transformed into Dao! "
"Gradually, there was nothing in the world that could move them. For example, the few senior brothers probably only cared about the fate of being master and disciple with Teacher. Therefore, they simply turned into connate numinous treasures … With a single thought, they would undergo several tribulations. You saw it too … The Connate Inextinguishable Spirit Light of the 24 Heavenly Venerables of Daira. Although their Dao runes were upright, they lost their spirituality. Therefore, even if their spirituality is not extinguished, they can no longer be considered living beings! "
"The world only knows that my master has the most numinous treasures and that the people of Jie School are the wealthiest. However, they don't know that they are all transformed by my master's disciples. All these years, my master has not been around as the Heavenly Venerables of Numinous Treasures. Wasn't it because he was too deeply hurt?"
"The disciples he taught were all Daoists, but they all transformed into Dao before his eyes …"
Zhao Gongming said with a whimper, "During the God-Conferment War, why was Master the only one who cared about his disciples the most? He didn't even care that some of my junior brothers had shallow foundations. The twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School laughed at the mixture of good and bad in Jie School … There were no high immortals …"
"When they proved their Dao in Daira, they came to Taiyi to take a look and stopped talking!"
"Master's disciples, Daoists, and Daoists are all here … They turned into connate numinous treasures, plants, and rocks!" Zhao Gongming said with a trembling voice.
"Junior Brother …" Zhao Gongming was a little emotional.
"The Supreme Oblivion is an evil Dao! I don't want to see you turn into a connate numinous treasure after a few Pangu eras! "
Only then did Heavenly Venerables Yuanyu understand why Patriarch River Styx, Patriarch Kunpeng, and even Zhao Gongming were so 'ordinary'. It turned out that those who were 'immortals' easily lost their Dao. This was not Daira's tribulation, but Daira's short life was too small compared to the long time and endless life experiences in the future!
The Mystic Door cultivators had a pure heart and few desires, so the tribulation of losing their Dao was worse than that of ordinary Daira.
"That's why Junior Brother gave one of his incarnations to Patriarch River Styx, which was actually good for him … Although the Path of Diabolism is extreme and vicious, the Three Scorching Poisons can impact Daira's gradually emotionless heart. Without the Path of Diabolism, the Mystic Door would be even more like a pool of stagnant water …" Zhao Gongming said calmly, "Daira schemed and schemed for fun, playing games with each other to help maintain a youthful mentality."
"Junior Brother, you'll know when you live through a few Pangu eras. The world is born and destroyed a few times, and there are fewer things that matter. We can either scheme against each other and play games with Daira … or we can reenact the origin and return to the time of cultivation, tormenting ourselves even more to strengthen ourselves …"
"I still remember a senior brother telling me that when Daoist Randeng had just attained Dao, he was still a Daoist expert. He had always been open-minded, and was the most popular among the Three Pure Ones. He had the most friends. Later, his Daoist friends turned into primordial spiritual treasures one by one, and even his Daoist partner turned into a spiritual lamp. At that time, Randeng was already on the verge of losing himself. After his Daoist partner passed away, his gradually dying heart was moved. That day, Randeng cried for three days and built a spiritual coffin for himself …"
"He took the opportunity of the reenactment of the origin to torment himself with all his might. He became the mastermind behind the scenes to prevent himself from attaining Dao. He set up 81 tribulations and more than 1,200 difficulties for himself. It was said that even Master Primordial Beginning could not stand it anymore and secretly helped his past self a few times … Later, after Randeng's past proved his Dao, he became like this … despicable, shameless, and full of Daoist appearance."
"Therefore, Junior Brother Yuan Yu, the background of your past proving your Dao is extremely important to resist Daira's loss of yourself. However, you can't let your past become the Dao too easily. If it was easier to become the Dao in the past, you have to obstruct yourself a few more times this time and train your Dao heart in the past. Don't wait until you're on the verge of losing yourself to save yourself … If you use too much force, it'll be easy for you to become a pervert like Daoist Randeng!"
Zhao Gongming warned sincerely. Yuan Yu was already stunned!
He thought that Daira would be free from the tribulations and be free from then on. It turned out that being free for too long was also a kind of disaster! Indeed, humans are born to be miserable … Is the meaning of life to torment oneself?
"The three calamities of Daira are all tribulations of the evolution of the world. It is also an opportunity for us to resist the loss of myself. Many fellow Daoists will take the initiative to participate in it. Of course, Fellow Daoist Yuan Yu, you have just achieved the Dao, so don't worry about losing me. At the very least, you will not be tired of living for three Pangu Tribulations. The beauty of the Dao of Daira is to find the wonders of life. "
"Therefore … Junior Brother Yuan Yu, you don't have to be in a hurry to find Patriarch River Styx. You only need to step into the second calamity, the Primordial Energy Tribulation and the third calamity, the Pangu Tribulation …"
Zhao Gongming continued to explain, "I'll start from my 24 senior brothers. Junior Brother Yuan Yu, you should know that at the beginning of the world's creation, the Primordial Energy was the most abundant, the highest quality, the most resources, and the easiest period of cultivation. Many natural spiritual creatures only needed a little cultivation to become immortals. It would not be difficult for them to even step into the threshold of Daira … "
"Why do we still have to shatter the Primordial World and constantly evolve the Connate Primordial Energy into the Postnatal Primordial Energy? Even the natural evolution was slightly insufficient, so they initiated all kinds of ancient divine wars, destroyed the world, cut off the spirit veins, and caused the world to shatter and the Spirit Qi to thin when you cultivated? "
Yuan Yu's face darkened. Wasn't it all your fault?
When he first cultivated, he really had to stick out his buttocks to find a spirit stone. A bit of Innate True Water could cause a great battle between cultivators. In order to achieve the Dao, he had plundered many worlds, risking the infamy of being scolded by later generations to gather the resources to achieve the Dao. At that time, he secretly swore that if he returned to the Primordial Era, he would definitely beat the sh * t out of these wantonly wasteful and environmentally destructive bastards!
But now, it sounded like there were some reasons.
Yuan Yu could only suppress his anger and continue listening.
"This is also a lesson learned by the three masters … When the three masters had just attained Pangu, they chose the best disciples and cultivated many Daira of the Immortal Dao in order to expand the Mystic Door and take advantage of the opportunity of the world's creation and the abundance of Primordial Energy. At that time, they did not see anything, but after the next Pangu Era, before the world's creation … the three senior brothers discovered that in the Primordial Era, when Qi first appeared, each Daira refined their own Ancestral Qi …
"The Senior Brother who attained the Dao the earliest and was personally taught by the three masters … refined Ancestral Qi in a very similar nature!
"Ancestral Qi is the manifestation of Daira's Great Dao. They use Qi to carry the Great Dao in the Innate Inextinguishable Spiritual Light and refine Ancestral Qi that can evolve into Primordial Energy. This Ancestral Qi should be the source of all the Principles that Daira comprehended. One Daozu Qi can evolve into a world, and in Daira's hands, he should be able to create a world, a universe, that he comprehended!
"The similarity of Ancestral Qi means that their Great Dao is similar … In this way, three thousand Chaos Godfiends have three thousand Great Dao and three thousand Ancestral Qi … But does this Primordial World have Chaos Godfiends, Great Dao, and Ancestral Qi that are completely similar? How can one Great Dao have two Chaos Godfiends? One Great Dao can only have one Ancestral Qi!
"Therefore, be it the Connate Five-Direction Flags or the Twenty-Four Oceanic Calming Pearls, they are all formed from the same Connate Daira Great Dao. Their Inextinguishable Spiritual Light also originates from the same source … The twenty-four senior brothers you saw today could not evolve into one Ancestral Qi because their Great Dao is similar, so they could only assimilate into one Ancestral Qi, a Chaos Godfiend.
"Moreover, the Great Dao they comprehended is only the expounding of Master's Prime Clear Dao. They are destined to be killed by Master and assimilate into the Primordial Three Qi. They are inferior goods among the Chaos Godfiends.
"The closer they are to their three masters, the closer they are to them. In fact, every time the world is created, they will become one with their three masters and become part of the Three Qi of Mystic, Origin, and Beginning. The three masters are the manifestations of the Great Dao of the Three Pure Ones. Every time they witness their own Dao so clearly, their understanding will naturally deepen, and they will even involuntarily try to understand the Great Dao represented by their three masters.
"With such a Great Dao, it is natural that they will lose themselves faster.
"After Daira, it is the end of Dao. You can only walk your own path. If you want to prove Primordial Beginning, Taishang Dao, Numinous Treasure … then with Primordial Beginning, Taishang Dao, and Numinous Treasure in front of you, how long can you maintain your sense of self under the Great Dao? One of Master Primordial Beginning's favorite disciples achieved Primordial Beginning after Daira. Now, he is a Primordial Beginning Pearl in Master Primordial Beginning's hand!
"It is a superior-grade Primordial Numinous Treasure, but Master Primordial Beginning rarely uses it. He doesn't even want to look at it, just because he sees the injuries!
"Every time after the world is created, during the period when the Primordial Qi has not disappeared, the three teachers are actually the Great Dao imprints of other Chaotic Godfiends. Although the creation of the Great Dao imprints is wonderful for cultivation, this kind of cultivation is to comprehend the Dao of the three teachers and the Chaotic Godfiends, and to comprehend Pangu!
"In this way, after Daira achieved Dao, he was imprinted with the Great Dao of the three teachers.
"There will be endless troubles in the future …
"Later on, the Great Divines and the three teachers will shatter their Great Dao imprints in advance, so that the Primordial Qi formed by the Primordial Three Qi will be continuously transformed into Postnatal Qi, and the Great Dao of Pangu will be expelled from it. Shattering the Primordial World is for your own good … Daira needs to have his own path. Only by shattering the Primordial World can you walk your own path. "
Zhao Gongming pointed at the twenty-four Heavenly Venerables of Daira in the twenty-four Sea Calming Pearls. "Otherwise, the outcome of the senior brothers will be your future … You must not prove your Dao in the early stages of the Primordial World. At the very least, you have to do it after the Heaven Mending. It would be best if it was during the Dharma Ending Era. Among the Connate numinous treasures that Daira has transformed into, 90% of them are Daira that has proven their Dao in the Primordial World. "
"After the Primordial World was destroyed, not even one in a hundred of them!"
"Junior Brother Yuanyu, now you know why there are very few Daira! The Primordial World cannot prove its Dao … It is not under the situation where the Primordial World is destroyed and the Great Dao is not revealed. Those who have tried every means and persevered to prove their Dao will not have a strong self. If not for the fact that after the Primordial World was destroyed, countless Postnatal living beings who were not affected by the Connate Great Dao sought the Dao one after another and created an independent Great Dao, the Daira that condensed the unique wisdom of these Postnatal living beings would not be a complete Daira. "
"Junior Brother, you are not the only one who achieved the Dao. There is also the era you are in."
"Daira is the wisdom of an era! You represent the era of your cultivation, and even the era before that. You are the one who achieved the Dao of Daira by contributing their wisdom to the Great Dao! This is the orthodoxy … Junior Brother Yuanyu, this is the orthodoxy of the Mystic Door that you have inherited! "
… …
"Kunpeng Patriarch!" River Styx called from afar. A spiritual light was running fast in front of him. Kunpeng turned his head and said, "Don't chase after him! River Styx … What are you trying to do? I will not join your Fiend Dao group! "
"Fellow Daoist Kunpeng … My Ten Demon Great Dao is waiting for you!"
The Ten Demon Great Dao was the latest Fiend Dao group introduced by River Styx. The first was the Heavenly Demon, the second was the Earth Demon, the third was the Human Demon, the fourth was the Ghost Demon, the fifth was the Celestial Demon, the sixth was the Yang Demon, the seventh was the Yin Demon, the eighth was the Disease Demon, the ninth was the Demon Demon, and the tenth was the Realm Demon.
This was the Fiend Dao set for the Mystic Door.
River Styx was also preparing to introduce another Ten Demon set for the Buddhist customers: Annoyance Demon, Yin Demon, Heavenly Demon, Death Demon, Sin Demon, Walking Demon, Karma Demon, Heart Demon, Son of Heaven Demon, and Mystic Demon.
"Kunpeng Patriarch … Although you are the one who revered Daozu, you are at the bottom of the list. You have not even achieved Pangu!" River Styx shouted from behind, "Although I am not talented and am just a newbie, I have achieved the level of one of Pangu's 81 Dharma Forms. Does Kunpeng Patriarch know the reason? "
Kunpeng stopped abruptly. He turned his head and said, "Are you really going to expose me? River Styx … Others may be afraid of you, but I am not. "
"Why can't I say it? It is not your fault that you achieved Dao too early … "River Styx persuaded," Kunpeng Patriarch, you are the son of the Chaos Fiendgod. Back then, the South Sea Emperor and the North Sea Emperor suddenly opened their seven orifices for the Central Emperor, which led to the death of Chaos. Because of this, they fought each other and both died, becoming the North Sea and the South Sea. "
"You, Kunpeng, were born in the North Sea. You are a giant Kunpeng formed from Di Hu's corpse essence. You are an innate fiendgod. Later, you realized that you are not complete, only half of it. So, you turned into a Peng and flew to the South Sea. You found half of Di Hu's essence and achieved Dao! "
"You know quite a lot …" Kunpeng's face was neutral, but he said in a strange tone, "But if you know too much, you will die without knowing why. Do you understand?"
River Styx laughed and said, "Kunpeng Patriarch, although you are from a noble family, you should know that the Untainted Land is not a good place to achieve Dao. Moreover, you inherited Di Hu's legacy and achieved Dao. The Dao of Daira's Fruit of Dao is too deep. You, a Daira, have nothing of your own … If Di Hu did not suddenly go offline and pass all the karma to you … I am afraid that you will be the first one to lose me in Daira!"
"Yes!" Kunpeng sneered and said, "You postcelestial beings are blessed by nature. After the Untainted Land is broken, you are no longer affected by the Innate Great Dao … That is why there are more and more Daira in the human race. Every Pangu Era, you dominate the timeline after the Untainted Land is broken, forcing the other races to hide in the early stage of the Innate Great Dao of Untainted Land … How shameless!"
"Kunpeng Patriarch, although you developed your own things above Jiu Hu, using the two Great Dao to establish your own foundation in balance, you are restricted by the Dao of others. That is why you are the weakest among the patriarchs. In the past, Di Hu and Di Wu were both Pangu's images, but you, who inherited their legacy, have not achieved Dao of Pangu. Every time, you need to borrow the Pangu's images of Di Hu and Di Hu to become the North Sea and the South Sea. "
"Your Kunpeng body inherited Di Hu, and your Peng body inherited Di Wu. But your real self is between the two. It is hard to change."
"Old Demon River Styx, you have been chasing me for so long. Don't tell me you want to expose me and mock me!" Kunpeng replied indifferently.
"You give me the South Sea to develop the Great Dao of Ultimate, and I will help you rebuild the Dao of Daira!" River Styx proposed a dirty deal. Kunpeng said disdainfully, "You are just making empty promises. Do you think I should believe you? Who are you? Can you help me rebuild my Dao foundation? "
"I have already told you the answer!" River Styx was speechless.
"The Sea Eye's Ultimate is the key to rebuild your Dao foundation!" River Styx split the Innate Inextinguishable Divine Light into two, one long and one short, two fierce swords, "This deal is, I will fight with you. If I win, I will cut off your Great Dao of Nanming and turn it into the carrier of the Great Dao of Diabolism and the Great Dao of Water – the Ultimate."
"If I lose, I will give you the Ultimate and rebuild your Dao foundation!"
"Alright!" Kunpeng Patriarch came to his senses. He turned into a giant Peng with a wingspan of ninety thousand miles. "Patriarch River Styx is indeed frank … Let me add another bet … If I lose, I will split a clone into your Diabolism and become your Vice Sect Master!"
