No.
The jade token, Chang Geng, the Fiend Ancestor, the groundhog, the Pangu God …
Daoist Huang Long felt dizzy. He walked out of the secret chamber in a daze and went straight out of the Cave Abode. He stood by the river and fell into a daze.
How did happiness disappear?
Have I been coming here too often recently?
Will there be any conflict between my mother and Chang Geng … Chang Geng is still a powerful minister of the Celestial Court who represents the Heavenly Dao. My mother had escaped the Heavenly Punishment previously. At that moment, she was only a remnant soul.
Why did things suddenly turn out like this?
Perfected Huang Long sighed softly. Suddenly, he felt something approaching him from behind. He subconsciously scanned with his immortal senses and his body could not help but stiffen.
It was a gray-robed Lao Dao.
He could not see his face or figure clearly. He could only sense that the other party's aura was calm and righteous. He did not seem to be evil.
Just as Perfected Huang Long was about to turn around, he said, "Fellow Daoist …"
The gray-robed Lao Dao attacked like the wind. He pointed at Perfected Huang Long's back. Perfected Huang Long's essence soul was instantly sealed. His body swayed and fell to the grass.
The gray-robed Lao Dao slowly walked forward and gradually transformed into the appearance of a yellow dragon.
However, after taking a few steps, the gray-robed Lao Dao stopped …
He suddenly had an inexplicable urge. Hence, he lowered his head and looked at Huang Long, who was lying on the ground. A strange smile appeared on his lips.
After a while,
The riverbank returned to calm again. The yellow dragon that the gray-robed Lao Dao had transformed into had already walked into the river and was slowly engulfed by the water.
In the forest by the river, Perfected Huang Long was tied up again and again under the branch of a huge tree. He hung on the branch and kept spinning. There was a comfortable and peaceful smile on his lips.
Not far from the tree, Li Changshou's paper effigy watched the scene silently in the trunk of a certain tree. He could not help but tilt his head.
Heavenly Dao avatar …
Quite mischievous.
In the secret chamber of the secret cave abode, Li Changshou stood there calmly, quietly looking at one of the Ancestral Dragon's partners in ancient times.
She was once one of the few experts among the Ancient Dragons, and her strength was naturally not to be underestimated. Back then, she had also contributed to the destruction of the primordial world, so Li Changshou would naturally not be disrespectful.
But he wouldn't be too polite.
He had only come here to make a deal. He wanted to find out where the Demonic Lord had fallen, and then he would give the Dragons an opportunity.
The Dragon Mother was not an ordinary living being. She had been secretly observing the Primordial World, so she should be able to make a choice now.
"Fellow Daoist, you still haven't told me what you're looking for."
Li Changshou took out a treasure pouch from his sleeve and took out the God-Slaying Spear.
The God-Slaying Spear was shaken by the 24 Heavens and withstood a force that could kill a Saint. At the instant the Sixth Saint was covered by the 24 Heavens and connected to the natural source of the world, it evaporated the Sixth Saint's essence spirit.
At that moment, the divine spear had an obvious curve. The murderous aura on it had dissipated a lot, and its power was greatly reduced.
Li Changshou said, "The fragment of the God-Slaying Spear and the Fiend Ancestor's origin baneful aura."
The Dragon Mother frowned. Her fluttering dragon whiskers swayed like water waves.
"Just for the remaining power of the Fiend Ancestor?"
"Otherwise?"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Apart from the remaining baneful aura of the Fiend Ancestor, what else do I need from the Fiend Ancestor?"
As he spoke, Li Changshou extended his left hand and gently closed his fingers. Cracks appeared in the "air" in his palm. With a crack, it collapsed into a small black ball.
Li Changshou closed his palm and the black ball was "destroyed".
There was a hint of fear in the Dragon Mother's eyes. She lowered her head and bowed. Then, she said, "As expected of a Taiqing disciple who can kill a Saint. The strength of your physical body has already reached such a level.
However, how did you obtain such power? "
"Through the Heavenly Dao," Li Changshou said calmly, "I found a small trick. It's not a Dao, and others can't imitate it.
Can you tell me now? "
While speaking, Li Changshou winked at Dragon Mother, completely unaffected by her words.
"Where is the burial ground of the Demon Ancestor?"
Dragon Mother said, "If you just want to find the origin power of the Demon Ancestor, you can go to the deepest earth vein in the Aparagodānīya Continent to search. There's no need to find the corpse of the Demon Ancestor."
"The Fiend Ancestor still has a corpse?" Li Changshou immediately caught the crux of the matter.
"That's right. That's something that the Dao Ancestor can't destroy," the Dragon Mother said. "It happened in the ancient times and finally broke the Primordial World. Now, it's described as the Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation that broke the Primordial World in a few periods.
In fact, the real war only lasted for a few hundred years. It was just a confrontation between two factions. "
Li Changshou asked, "Taoism and the devil?"
"That's right. The Dao and the Fiend, the Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor.
However, there was no word 'Dao' at that time, nor was there the word 'devil'. Ah … "
Dragon Mother sighed slowly. "It should be said that two completely different Great Daos were fighting.
The battle that shattered the Primordial World and caused the Heavenly Dao to lose balance was actually just a Dao discussion between the Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor.
As for the Fiend Ancestor, he lost to the Dao Ancestor in this Dao discussion. "
"Mother."
Outside the secret chamber, the "Yellow Dragon" shouted and pushed open the stone door of the secret chamber.
Li Changshou immediately said, "Senior Brother, you shouldn't listen to this. These are the secrets of the Heavenly Dao. The more you listen, the more dangerous it will be for you."
The "Yellow Dragon" smiled and said, "Why can't I listen?"
The Dragon Mother said calmly, "This matter is just in the past. Huang 'er, just stay here."
The "Yellow Dragon" nodded slowly and naturally walked to the side of the portrait. He was less than half a foot away from the portrait.
At that moment, in the secret chamber, a living spirit, an ancient soul, and a will of the Heavenly Dao had their own thoughts, but they were trying their best to maintain peace.
Li Changshou suddenly wanted to use this opportunity to tell the Heavenly Dao the truth. He wanted to tell the Heavenly Dao a small portion of the information that he knew so that the Heavenly Dao would not feel that the information was confidential and implicate other living beings.
Sometimes, he had to pay a huge price to keep a secret.
"However, when this secret is no longer mysterious, no one cares too much about it."
Li Changshou looked at the Dragon Mother and said, "I actually knew about this Dao discussion long ago.
"I was actually aware of this Dao Discussion a long time ago. A senior left behind an ark, and there were many books within it.
These manuals did not seem to be anything, but there were some passages that had completely different interpretations when read horizontally or vertically, forward or backward.
This is how I understand the different paths that the Fiend Ancestor and my Grandmaster chose back then. "
"Oh?"
The Dragon Mother's eyes were filled with curiosity. "Tell me about the path that the Dao Ancestor chose.
You are really an interesting living being. Back then, there were only a few dozen people who knew about the Dao discussion that was hidden after the battle. They had all died.
I'm really curious about how much you know. "
The Yellow Dragon placed his hands behind his back. In order to respect his current persona, he asked, "What Dao discussion?"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "The debate between the Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor … I'll make it simpler.
The Dao Ancestor's Dao was like this. Ahem.
The past is not the past, and the future is not the future. The Dao is endless. Everything in the future is determined by the past and the Dao.
Senior Brother, do you not understand? Then I'll put it more simply.
My Grandmaster feels that everything in the world is in the Great Dao. If he grasps the three thousand Great Dao of the Primordial World and understands the past of a living being, he can deduce what this living being will do at every node in the Primordial World in the future.
Everything is set. Everything is in karma and can be controlled.
For example, if you catch a fish today, you think that you decide whether to catch it or not. However, your decision is already determined by a series of factors such as your personality, your habits, the appearance of the fish, the initial disturbances in your heart, and so on.
Self-consciousness is just an illusion. It's actually just some instinctive and anti-instinctive thinking. "
The Yellow Dragon nodded slowly and said,
"Grandmaster has mentioned all of that when he was preaching the Dao in the Purple Cloud Palace. What about the Dao of the Fiend Ancestor Rahu?"
"It's not completely opposite, but there's something that goes against each other.
Rahu feels that the Dao of the Dao Ancestor is very ridiculous. "
Li Changshou said slowly,
"The Dao of the Dao Ancestor places himself in the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and is related to the Great Dao. He emphasizes the laws of the Dao and ignores the initiative of living beings.
The Dao of the Fiend Ancestor is to devour everything. The Dao, Dharma, and living beings belong to him. He is the strongest.
I'll say a few rebellious words.
Back then, the Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor pursued the highest realm of living beings — omniscience and omnipotence.
The Dao Ancestor's omniscience and omnipotence was to have the power to deduce everything. He focused on omniscience, which was to obtain all the information in the Primordial World. By building a thinking network, he could deduce everything and know everything in the past and future.
The Fiend Ancestor's omniscience and omnipotence was to gather the power of the world into himself. He obtained the power of destruction and creation. When he reached the realm of the Pangu God, he could destroy everything and create everything. He focused on omnipotence.
When the two of them clashed, and both of them were the strongest experts of that era, they had the possibility of taking the final step. A battle was inevitable.
I'm actually very curious. What philosophy did the Ancestral Dragon and the Primordial Phoenix follow back then?
They had all followed the Pangu God. Did they support the Dao Ancestor or the Fiend Ancestor in the ancient battle? "
The Dragon Mother remained silent.
However, the Yellow Dragon said, "Father supported the Dao Ancestor. Senior Primordial Phoenix supported the Fiend Ancestor."
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Then why did the victorious side have the Sea Eye filled?"
The Yellow Dragon could not help but fall silent.
"There was no victor in the battle back then."
The Dragon Mother sighed slowly. Her words were indescribably low.
"That was the end of an era. It was the last light of the Pangu God's will.
In the ancient times, living beings were free. Connate lifeforms were born from the Great Dao. The three thousand Great Dao were not just three thousand Dao, but countless Great Dao. They were the rules of the world. There were Connate lifeforms as representatives in the world.
That was the last light of living beings. The Heavenly Dao was only a thin layer of array that enveloped the sky and the earth.
When that era reached its end, all living beings were either intoxicated by their desires or began to think about the ultimate meaning of the Dao.
Just as you said, omniscient and omnipotent, the Primordial Chaos Limitless Saint.
That was the Primordial World. The current world was just the remnant body of the Primordial World. It was just the remains of the ancient times. The living beings were glorious for a while and finally buried a great world.
The Fiend Ancestor was defeated, and the Dao Ancestor was severely injured. The Heavenly Dao rose, and the Dragons became the first living beings to suffer the Heavenly Punishment.
Now, there were no more records. Only the imprints of the strongest experts of that era were still circulating in the world.
The Dao Ancestor, the Fiend Ancestor, the Ancestral Dragon, the Primordial Phoenix, the Qilin …
I don't have any Dharma powers anymore. I just want to see the outcome. I want to wait for the outcome of the Dao discussion back then. Will the world return to silence as the Dao Ancestor said?
I want to see … "
Huang Long nodded slowly and said, "Mother, don't worry too much."
"So," Li Changshou smiled and said, "Where is the Fiend Ancestor's corpse? I need to forge this divine spear well. "
"The Nine Polluted Springs." The Dragon Mother sighed and said, "It's a place that living beings can't touch."
Li Changshou frowned slightly and looked at the Dragon Mother for a while. Then, he smiled bitterly. "In that case, I can only go to the underground of the Aparagodānīya Continent to collect baneful aura."
Huang Long nodded slowly and said, "Why don't I help you, Junior Brother?"
"There's no need." Li Changshou smiled and said, "Senior Brother, don't get involved in these matters. I'm on different paths from Grandmaster now.
Although I'm a fan of Grandmaster, our ideals are ultimately different. "
"Different ideals?"
Huang Long smiled and said, "Junior Brother, what do you think of Grandmaster and the Fiend Ancestor?"
Li Changshou chuckled in his heart. He accepted the word "fan" so easily and even said that it had nothing to do with Senior Lang's memories?
"There's no such thing as omniscience and omnipotence." Li Changshou smiled and said, "They have all taken the wrong path and neglected a crucial factor.
Boundary.
The boundary of omniscience was that you could not grasp all the information.
Take the Heavenly Dao for example. The Heavenly Dao could never be perfect. Even if it could escape through an era and leave the Primordial World, reaching a state of near omniscience, there would always be flaws and variables. This was determined by the Great Dao at the bottom.
The boundary of omnipotence was that you could not escape the most basic Great Dao. Changing these Great Dao was self-denial. After the time scale lost its meaning, taking a step forward was self-destruction.
Therefore, a theory under ideal conditions could only be a theory in the end.
Practice is the only standard to verify the truth. "
Huang Long was stunned and muttered to himself, "Practice is the only way to verify the truth …"
Li Changshou placed his hands behind his back and sighed softly.
"From the looks of the current situation, Grandmaster is determined to give it a try. I will naturally leave at the right time.
As long as I escape, Grandmaster will be able to sense the existence of the boundary. Perhaps at that time, he will give up on pursuing the so-called omniscience and omnipotence.
I suddenly understood why the Pangu God chose to die after opening the sky.
Why did so many Connate Godfiends choose to fight to the death with the Pangu God? They were unwilling to give up a small territory in the Chaos Sea and open up a world.
Thank you for your guidance, Senior. Take care. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Changshou casually drew a circle. The Taiji Painting slowly appeared. A black and a white Taiji fish chased after each other. Then, they turned into a ball of gray and opened a door.
Just as Li Changshou was about to leave, he suddenly turned to look at the yellow dragon and smiled.
He smiled and said, "I have an interesting idea. Senior Brother, why don't you consider it?
How did the Chaos Sea come about?
The state of the Chaos Sea did not seem like a living being who had once pursued the end of the Great Dao. In order to achieve omniscience and omnipotence, it had walked towards self-destruction.
From then on, the Dao laws would shatter and the laws would not appear. The boundless energy would return to the most primitive and initial state of no attributes, which is also the state of chaos. "
After saying that, Li Changshou stepped into the Cosmic Door. In front of him was a sea of clouds, which seemed to be the Celestial Court.
When the door slowly closed, Huang Long frowned and turned to look at the portrait at the side. The remnant soul of the Dragon Mother had already returned to the portrait.
"Hmph!"
…
"Eh? I, what's this? "
In the bushes by the river, Daoist Huang Long opened his eyes and realized that he had been tied up and hung on a tree. The immortal rope that bound him was not weak, and he could not break free for a while.
However …
This technique, this binding force, this indescribable feeling of being restrained, this feeling of being cared for.
"Hey …"
Lao Dao blushed. He squinted and sighed softly. He slowly turned half a round in the air.
Li Changshou's paper effigy, who was hiding in a tree trunk not far away, silently raised his hand and poked his eyes.
Not long after, Perfected Huang Long recalled that something was amiss. He saw a gray-robed Lao Dao. The other party had easily restrained him. He did not know what he had done after that.
He hurriedly broke free from the immortal rope and rushed into the river.
Li Changshou waited quietly at the side. He was also waiting for an outcome.
Was the remnant soul of the Dragon Mother alive or dead?
Although that was not important, Li Changshou … desperately wanted to know the outcome.
An hour later, Perfected Huang Long placed his hands behind his back and hummed a tune. He floated out of the river and flew out of the valley on a cloud. His eyes were filled with peace.
Li Changshou raised his eyebrows and smiled unconsciously. He quietly dissolved the paper effigy in the tree trunk.
Well, it was just as he had expected.
The Nine Polluted Springs …
His main body, which had already returned to the Celestial Court, lay on the reclining chair in front of the Pill Chamber again, as if he had not moved before.
The Nine Polluted Springs was not a place that living beings could touch. It was also a place that living beings could not find.
The Fiend Ancestor's corpse was suppressed in the Nine Polluted Springs, or rather, it had triggered the Nine Polluted Springs. It was a reasonable explanation.
Could the Dragon Mother be lying?
To be precise, why did the Dragon Mother tell me the truth?
The other party was originally a supporter of the Dao Ancestor. It was very likely that it was a secret pawn of the Dao Ancestor.
Li Changshou's words to the "Yellow Dragon" were actually meant for the Dao Ancestor to hear. He wanted the Dao Ancestor not to kill innocent people to hide any secrets.
Li Changshou naturally held back on the last hypothesis. He did not mention the last sentence.
If he really pointed it out, he would probably be chased to the Chaos Sea or slapped to death by the Dao Ancestor.
Those words were …
"I remember that I once saw in the eyes of a senior groundhog that Hong Jun had appeared during the world-splitting battle in the Chaos Sea back then and was spared by the Pangu God.
In the rules of the Chaos Sea, even the Pangu God was a living being born from the resonance of many True Spirits and the Great Dao. His strength depended on how many True Spirits he could attract. That was also the fundamental reason why the Pangu God became stronger the more he fought against the three thousand Godfiends.
As for Hong Jun, he was a living being born after a single True Spirit resonated with the Great Dao. He had good strength and was called by the Pangu God:
"An ideal single True Spirit lifeform."
Thinking about it carefully, he was terrified.
Li Changshou raised his hand and yawned. He adjusted his lying posture and waited quietly for the little fairy to fly over from afar.
Ling 'e was still the most comfortable. She did not have to consider anything.
