Green Touring Palace!
All around him, there was nothingness. Only a beam of Chaos Light was guiding Ye Xuan as he strolled forward. From time to time, he would size up the Saint's Bodhimanda. However, other than the Chaos aura circulating around him, Ye Xuan did not see a single living being.
Perhaps it was two hours, or perhaps it was a year. Ye Xuan did not know how long he had been walking in Green Touring Palace until a light bloomed in front of him. A green door appeared in front of his eyes.
Buzz!
Wisps of Chaos aura surged towards him as the green door spun like a whirlpool, as though it led to a mysterious place. It gave off a boundless and vast feeling.
Without any hesitation, Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes and stepped into the green door. This was because Ye Xuan knew that one of the Three Pure Ones, the Tongtian, was inside the door. He was also the only person who could help him now.
…
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! The stream flowed endlessly as a cool breeze blew past. When Ye Xuan opened his eyes, he was already in a world of green mountains and clear waters.
Birds chirped, flowers bloomed, and the fragrance of grass assailed his nostrils. Ancient pines rose from the ground and from time to time, the chirping of birds could be heard. He saw a clear stream flowing slowly and a straw hut stood in front of him.
There was a piece of farmland in front of the straw hut. There was a person in the farmland, but his back was facing Ye Xuan. He was waving a hoe and plowing the farmland, preventing Ye Xuan from seeing his appearance.
Tap — Tap — Tap.
Ye Xuan strolled forward. With every step he took, the sound of his footsteps resounded in the world. Even when Ye Xuan arrived behind the person, the person was still plowing the land. He had no intention of turning around, as though he did not notice Ye Xuan's arrival.
Everything was silent and the world was silent.
The two of them stood side by side, neither of them making a sound. However, this person was constantly waving his hoe, constantly loosening the ground under his feet. What was very strange was that every time he loosened the ground, he didn't sow any seeds. Instead, he buried the loosened ground again, and this cycle continued.
"You only have a hoe but no seeds. What have you planted? When will it bloom and bear fruit?" After an unknown period of time, Ye Xuan spoke calmly.
Buzz!
Time seemed to have stopped, space seemed to have frozen, and the hoe that he brandished no longer descended. However, the world was slightly distorted, and this person slowly looked towards Ye Xuan.
"I planted the seeds of the heart, and what grows is karma."
His handsome face was as refined as a scholar's, and his jet-black hair was draped behind his head. He didn't carry the slightest bit of aura as he smiled at Ye Xuan.
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, Ye Xuan would never have believed that the Tongtian, one of the Three Pure Ones, would look like a scholar. How could he be as domineering and murderous as the rumors said?
The Grandmaster of Heaven was a name that had never been heard since ancient times. He was also one of the most terrifying existences among the Six Great Sages. During the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, the Grandmaster of Heaven fought against the Four Great Sages by himself. In the end, although he was defeated by the Green Touring Palace, his fame spread throughout the Three Realms, shocking all living beings.
However, when Ye Xuan truly saw Tongtian, he did not sense any evil aura, nor did he sense the might of a Saint. It was as though their meeting was a reunion of old friends.
Saint!
Ye Xuan had only met two. The first was naturally Nüwa, and the second was the Tongtian in front of him. However, Nüwa was high and mighty, giving him the feeling that a Saint was supreme. However, Tongtian did not have the slightest bit of a Saint's might. He was like an ordinary person talking to Ye Xuan.
"What is the heart of the heart? What is karma? "Ye Xuan muttered to himself as he looked straight at Tongtian.
"Everything has a spirit, and desires breed. Even Saints are no exception. The so-called heart of the heart is a person's seven emotions and six desires. The so-called karma is the gratitude, grudges, love, and hatred caused by the seven emotions and six desires," said Tongtian with a smile.
"My young friend, come with me."
Tongtian strolled forward as green lotuses bloomed beneath his feet. The world suddenly changed, turning into a vast starry sky. Instantly, the two of them appeared in the boundless starry sky.
Rumble!
Fiery meteors streaked across the vast starry sky, and a sea of stars was surging. Ye Xuan and Tongtian stood side by side, observing the changes in the starry sky together. It was as if they were observing the trajectory of the world.
"The cycle of all things, from life to death. This is the trajectory of the Heavenly Dao. No one can change it. People say that Saints are immortal, but they do not know that even the world will be destroyed one day. The so-called Saints rely on the world to be born. If the world is destroyed, the Saints will be buried with the world," said Tongtian in a hoarse voice. The aura around him was slightly sorrowful.
"The Saints seek the path of transcendence, and those below the Saints seek to seize the position of a Saint. Therefore, the karma of the Three Realms is born. In order to maintain the stability of the Three Realms, the Immeasurable Calamity has appeared."
The Grandmaster of Heaven pointed his finger out, causing the space and time in this area to distort once again. However, one magnificent painting after another unfurled and appeared in Ye Xuan's eyes.
The Great Calamity of the Dragon and Phoenix, the Great War of the Sorcerer and Demon, and the Great God-Investiture Calamity. When these scenes flashed across the starry sky, Ye Xuan saw them all. His expression became more solemn, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Stars exploded, the earth sank, mountains and rivers collapsed, and all living beings were crying and wailing. Those destructive battles caused the Primitive World to be in a state of desolation, and the shouts of battle that shook the heavens simply made one's soul tremble to the extreme.
Daluo Jinxian's blood spilled across the sky, the Sage-to-be's soul scattered, and he fell from the starry sky. There were even Saints who attacked and shattered the Untainted Land.
The sky collapsed, the earth sank, and countless living beings were buried. Ye Xuan watched these scenes silently. However, his fists were slightly clenched, and veins were pulsating on his forehead, proving how disturbed he was.
Big Luo died tragically, Sage-to-be fell, and even the Untainted Land was pierced through by the Saints. Ye Xuan even witnessed the final battle between Tongtian and the Four Great Saints.
The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation shattered the heaven and earth, and the Immeasurable Light of Slaughter destroyed the heaven and earth. Countless Daluo Jinxian were turned into ashes, and even Sage-to-be perished in the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
Blood, blood, and extremely bleak blood spilled across every corner of the Untainted Land. No one could participate in the battle between the Five Great Saints. The so-called Sage-to-be was merely an ant in front of them.
Ye Xuan was trembling, not only mentally, but physically as well. He finally witnessed the terror of the Saints, and finally understood the meaning of the phrase, "those below the Saints are all ants."
It had been ten thousand years since Ye Xuan started his cultivation. He had experienced countless hardships along the way, and behind him was a sea of blood and mountains of corpses. However, after witnessing the battle between the Saints today, he felt that he was weak and powerless from the bottom of his heart.
If he did not become a Saint, he would be an ant in the end!
