"Why are you babbling nonsense?"
The Dao Ancestor frowned and stared at Li Changshou, as if he wanted to see if Li Changshou was joking. When he saw Li Changshou's solemn expression, he said, "Don't say that.
How can I and your senior be the same person? "
Li Changshou stared at the Dao Ancestor. Although he was five feet away, his gaze was as sharp as a knife, as if he could pierce through the Dao Ancestor's eyes.
The cloud mirror was still maintained on the square table of the short table. It revealed Sun Wukong's situation.
The bamboo hut was silent for a while.
"Fellow Daoist, you don't admit it?"
Li Changshou asked softly.
"Such a stigma is unimaginable …"
The Dao Ancestor answered calmly.
The two of them could not see any power. It was as if they were talking about family matters, but there was a mysterious Dao rune between them.
There was thunder in the silence, and there was a battle roar in the silence.
It was like the common "calm before the storm". However, the silence was eventually broken by Li Changshou's laughter.
"Haha, hahaha!
I knew that you wouldn't admit it. After all, if the truth was revealed to the public, the Primordial World would naturally be in chaos. I don't know how many living beings will die in despair. I don't know if Teacher will open up another world.
Fellow Daoist, you don't dare to admit it, right? "
The Dao Ancestor said calmly, "If this is true, why wouldn't I dare to admit it?
The world would not collapse because of anything. The despair of living beings disappeared because the hearts of living beings were too weak.
Your teacher inherited the will of the Pangu God. What he did was to guard the Primordial World and not to create the world again. "
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Since you're so confident, can you answer a few questions of mine?"
The Dao Ancestor said calmly, "Just ask."
Li Changshou said, "What is the content of the last page of Senior Lang's yearbook that was destroyed? Why did Senior Lang go crazy in a short period of time? "
Hong Jun answered, "Previously, you showed that I and Lang had a disagreement."
"In the memory that Fellow Daoist revealed just now, Senior Lang's emotions clearly don't match Nian Ji's final emotions."
Li Changshou said firmly, "Senior Lang witnessed the process of the creation of the world. The Senior Lang I saw on the second last page of the yearbook seemed to have suffered a huge blow and lost his Dao heart.
Something must have suddenly appeared in front of him, or perhaps he had suddenly figured it out, causing his Dao Heart to collapse.
Fellow Daoist, I don't think I'm wrong about this, am I? "
Hong Jun remained silent.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "I deduced that Senior Lang must have found out about your relationship at that time."
"I have no connection with him!"
There was anger in Hong Jun's eyes.
Li Changshou said calmly, "Fellow Daoist, why don't you take out the last page of Senior Lang's yearbook? The truth will be revealed."
"Does the truth matter?"
Hong Jun said coldly, "I am now the Primordial World. I am now the Master of the Three Realms! The Origin of Heaven and Earth is in I's body. In the end, you will only be defeated! "
"Really?"
Li Changshou said calmly, "What if I have the means to make you lose your connection with the essence of the world?"
Hong Jun subconsciously covered his chest. Then, he stared at Li Changshou and smiled. "If you have such a method, why would you say that to I?"
"Because I want to give you a way out."
Li Changshou said in a low voice, "Although you are just a fake personality produced by Senior Lang and you have killed the main personality, I still treat you as half a fellow villager.
Moreover, I relied on you to take care of me today.
You have given me many benefits. Although most of them are schemes, I am not an ungrateful person.
You have killed many living beings. Apart from my master, you have not touched my relatives and friends. Although I have never been able to vent my anger towards my master, I still want to give you a chance to live.
At this moment, only you and I know about this.
Stop. I will give you a small courtyard in the cage outside the world. I will let you quietly watch the changes in the Primordial World in the future. "
Hong Jun's smile was a little helpless. "You don't even want to tell me your methods. How can I believe you?"
"It won't work if I say it," Li Changshou said seriously. "It depends on whether you believe me or not."
"I keep feeling that you are trying to gain something without risking anything." Hong Jun's gaze became clear again. He shook his head and said, "Everything is just your guess. Although this guess is interesting, there is no basis."
Li Changshou said,
"How do you explain Heng 'e, Fellow Daoist?
I'm actually sorry, Fellow Daoist Heng 'e. After all, Fellow Daoist Heng' e is pure, and I used her.
When the Fire Emperor attacked the Heavens, I had basically confirmed your relationship with Senior Lang. I invited her along just to verify this guess.
Fellow Daoist, your attitude towards Heng 'e at that time is the best evidence. "
Hong Jun said calmly, "I will forgive Heng 'e because she is the disciple of an old friend."
"Oh? The disciple of an old friend? "
Li Changshou sighed slowly. "Fellow Daoist, can you let me tell a story?"
"It's still early for Wukong to wake up. You can naturally say whatever you want to say," Hong Jun said. "However, a story is ultimately just a story."
"Fellow Daoist, you really … won't shed a tear until you see the coffin."
Li Changshou held the Chaos aura with his right palm and slowly pushed it above the square table. He raised his left hand and pointed his sword. Immortal light surrounded him, and a scroll appeared behind him.
Ling 'e said.
Li Changshou said,
"Fellow Daoist, do you know what I have done in the past thousand years since I left the Primordial World?"
"Don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me."
"The first thing is naturally to use the Heavenly Fiend Dao to control the Void Bodhi and comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to find a way to kill you.
The second thing was to accompany Ling 'e, Yun, and the others.
The third thing was to split a wisp of essence soul and simulate the state of a Heavenly Fiend. He slowly spread out his immortal senses in the Chaos Sea and merged with it.
It's like an antenna. "
Li Changshou said, "This is actually a very dangerous thing. If my Dao heart is unbalanced, it will affect my heart. However, I have to find the answer I want."
"Answer?"
"Yes, the answer."
Li Changshou pursed his lips and whispered, "One is the answer to the question I've been asking myself since I came to the Primordial World and this world."
Hong Jun asked with interest, "What kind of problem?"
"Why is this world like this?"
Hong Jun could not help but be more interested.
Li Changshou took a deep breath and began to talk about the source of the problem.
"Fellow Daoist … I'll address you as Senior.
Senior, do you think a newborn child can master a language without coming into contact with any language? "
Hong Jun shook his head slightly.
Li Changshou said, "Yes, I can't. There are many experiments in my hometown.
Language is a collective memory and a part of the inheritance. It's not just language. Words, skills, thoughts, and melodies are all a part of the collective inheritance.
In other words, it's a tool that newborns need to learn, remember, and master when they integrate into this group.
Fellow Daoist, you shouldn't have any objections to that. "
"That's right."
"Then let's continue to extend some … logic.
Logic is the law and rule of thinking. There are objective and subjective differences.
This extends to another keyword, logic of thinking. "
Li Changshou leaned forward and squinted at the Dao Ancestor.
"The environment in which civilizations are formed is different. If two civilizations do not have primitive, lasting, and stable communication, the logic of thinking between civilizations will be different.
The ancient civilization on Earth is only an ancient civilization from thousands of years ago. The civilization that was brewed in the two rivers of the Tigris River and the Euphrates River is different from the ancient civilization brewed in China.
However, if the two civilizations could meet, they could communicate through learning. That was because they had the same batch of ancestors and their logic of thinking was similar.
What about Earth in the Primordial World?
I'll ask you, Fellow Daoist, why can I understand this world without any obstacles?!
Why can I communicate with the living beings in this world without any boundaries? The price I paid is to learn the dialect here?
It's very simple. The logic of the living beings in this world is interconnected with my original logic.
This is a doubt that I had in my heart before I cultivated. When I came into contact with Senior Lang, I suddenly had a crazy but reasonable thought.
Who created this Primordial World?
Who created this world that gathered the myths and culture of my hometown!?!
Who embedded a similar logic model to mine in this world!?! "
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun's expression was indescribably gloomy.
Li Changshou smiled bitterly and sighed. "Fellow Daoist, do you still insist that I'm just guessing?
This is your greatest flaw. It has been in front of me from the beginning. As my Dao Realm continues to deepen, it guides me closer to the truth of the Primordial World step by step.
Fellow Daoist, do you still not admit it? Do you still need evidence? I still have a lot. "
The Dao Ancestor said coldly, "Yes."
Li Changshou pointed his left sword finger at the gray aura. The scroll behind him opened.
A wisp of Dao runes spread out from the scroll and turned into a spiritual perception. It condensed into a few murmurs in their hearts.
"What the hell is this place? It feels like a long time has passed. I'm so dizzy every day. Is this death?"
"No, is it so uncomfortable to die? Didn't you say that everything will be gone once you close your eyes? Lao Tzu has lived for more than forty years and achieved nothing. He was hit by a car and died. Why did he suffer such a crime? "
"Eh? Could this be the legendary Chaos Sea? The Primordial World was created, and Pangu opened the world? "
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun frowned. At that moment, he only closed his eyes. The smile on his lips was a little bleak.
Li Changshou retracted his finger and stared at the Dao Ancestor.
"Fellow Daoist, let me tell you a story. It's about Senior Lang and you."
Hong Jun was speechless.
Li Changshou said slowly in a slightly soothing voice,
"There was a middle-aged uncle who had been frustrated for half his life and had no roots. He was sent away by a car accident.
When he opened his eyes and woke up, it should not be considered opening his eyes. Instead, when he woke up, he realized that he was in an indescribable gray space.
Void, emptiness, helplessness.
Then, he fell into a tragic situation. He only had thoughts and no physical body. He could not feel the passage of time, but his thoughts kept jumping. He could not die even if he wanted to. He could only sleep again and again.
What he did not know was that in this area that contained almost endless power and could not be understood or described, many wonderful things would happen with only his thoughts.
He was actually the only ruler of this area in this period.
He felt an eternal loneliness. In the endless, unperturbed silence, he almost went crazy.
In a daze, he began to talk to himself.
He was crazy.
He was schizophrenic and had split thoughts. In order to resist the eternal loneliness and loneliness, other personalities appeared without the main personality noticing.
There was no time or the concept of space here. However, as the only thought, any of his thoughts would affect this area.
Suddenly, one day, he had a sudden thought.
Eh? Could this be the legendary Chaos Sea? The beginning of the Primordial World and Pangu splitting the world?
What he did not know was that his thoughts, subconscious judgment, and his own memories had affected the evolution of this magical area.
When this mystical region evolved the Fragmented Dao Law and evolved many True Spirit Living Beings.
Pangu was born in his small wish.
If the concept of time was introduced, it would definitely be an extremely long time.
Then, the keywords surrounding Pangu — Chaos Green Lotus, Chaos Chicken, Heaven-Splitting Axe, and Connate Godfiends were all born.
The weak thought that ruled over everything was also born because of the birth of more True Spirit living beings. The number of thoughts in this area naturally lost the dominance that he had when he was alone.
But in his subconscious, he had already transmitted his way of thinking, and everything changed in his thoughts.
This era was known as the Primordial Chaos.
That "he" was Senior Lang.
What was even more terrifying was that Senior Lang's main personality was in a daze and completed the split with the other personalities.
It could be inferred that the first True Spirit split happened before many True Spirit living beings were born and before the Pangu God appeared.
The split personalities were attached to a True Spirit.
The Lady of Earth's Seven Emotions incarnation could prove that such a situation was indeed allowed to exist.
In his muddleheaded state, Senior Lang had forgotten that it was his imaginary companion. This should be because he had been constantly hypnotizing himself to resist loneliness. He had subconsciously treated the personality as a friend.
Then, Senior Lang's main personality really became friends with these split personalities.
These personalities had Lang's memories and knew everything that Lang had caused. They had fatal flaws. They were either stubborn, benevolent, or wanted to imitate the main personality.
They were incomplete, but they tried their best to accompany the main personality through that difficult and lonely period.
One of the personalities was the strongest and the most gentle. He suggested that the various personalities hide their identities and become a part of the world that the main personality wanted to see.
Hence, they accepted their identities in the Chaos and the Primordial World and turned the strongest hope of the main personality into reality step by step.
At that moment, the group of personalities were still sharing a body formed by the True Spirit.
He encountered the Pangu God and hid it from him. He relied on the main personality to plead for mercy for his "good friend" and survived.
This single True Spirit living being is Fellow Daoist. Hong Jun at that time, right?
What did Senior Lang's main personality hope for the most?
According to the remaining information in the Chaos Sea, the most frequent thing that appeared was the main personality's self-consolation.
"Lao Tzu transmigrated to the Chaos Sea? In the future, he can still be brothers with the Pangu God and live all the way back to Earth! "
Later on, Senior Lang's main personality witnessed the creation of the world and the birth of the Primordial World.
This area was called the Chaos Sea.
After the Pangu God died, the sub-personalities began to use the memories and impressions of the main personality to write the script of the Primordial World. They gradually separated from Hong Jun's body and directed a huge show.
The Fiend Ancestor Rahu was Senior Lang's fake personality.
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun was Senior Lang's fake personality.
The old man lying in Randeng's stone coffin was you, right, Senior?
This world was created by the Pangu God. It was ridiculous for his cultivation level to be faster than the three friends formed by the Pangu God's essence soul.
Teacher Taiqing had said that the old man in the stone coffin was one of the first batch of experts after the creation of the world. His strength was once above Teacher's. That was completely unreasonable.
Also, the teacher who received Zhun Ti was also one of the personalities. Later on, he was also devoured by the Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.
That was the predecessor of the Primordial World Neighborhood Committee before Lang joined.
In the ancient war, the battle between the Fiend Ancestor and the Dao Ancestor was actually a battle between two "larger" personalities that were constantly devouring the other personalities. The rule was that the winner would take all.
After the Fiend Ancestor was defeated, the split personalities merged into one. They had complete thoughts, stubborn thoughts, and selfishness that was unwilling to belong to the main personality. When the split personality and the main personality had different opinions … No, that's not right.
The conflict between the split personality and the main personality was also within the calculations of the split personality.
The split personality thought of ways to kill the main personality!
He found a dignified reason for himself — to protect the Primordial World.
In reality?
The name of the Primordial World was subconsciously given by the living beings who had accidentally transmigrated to the Chaos Sea.
When this split personality wiped out the main personality, it lost all meaning in itself.
However, the split personality did not fall into chaos because of that. Instead, it placed itself above all living beings.
The selfish desires and ambitions of the split personality are just to cover up his regrets. "
…
Li Changshou paused and looked at the Dao Ancestor who had his eyes closed.
"Fellow Daoist, aren't you going to speak?"
Hong Jun remained silent.
Li Changshou continued, "This is the third reason why Senior Lang went crazy and chose to commit suicide.
Senior Lang's main personality discovered these secrets and completely collapsed.
To be honest, if it were me, I would have collapsed too.
When I was thinking through this, I also denied myself. "
Li Changshou sneered. "So I've been living in a story written by someone."
"Here."
Hong Jun said calmly. A piece of paper flew out of his sleeve and landed in front of Li Changshou.
Following that, some fog appeared around the piece of paper. The surroundings fell into an illusion. Li Changshou saw Senior Lang's figure.
Li Changshou saw Senior Lang clearly.
He was very ordinary. The middle-aged man had a fair face and was neither tall nor short. He was dressed in an exquisite Daoist robe.
Senior Lang knelt in front of the stone tablet of Kun Peng. His eyes were red, and his expression was a little ferocious. The sword fingers that were writing the words kept trembling.
At the same time, Senior Lang's low roar sounded outside the image.
"It's fake, it's all fake!
This world should not exist in the first place. The evolution of this world is wrong!
The world that Brother Pangu God wanted to create was personally shackled by me. The True Spirit kept reincarnating in this wrong world. It was only repeating one mistake after another!
I want to destroy this world. I want the Chaos Sea to return to its original state and return it to before I came.
No, this is not the Chaos Sea. The Chaos Sea is the destiny that I gave it.
Shackles!
I am the shackles of this world!
It was I, a bastard, who could not stand the loneliness and gave the True Spirits who jumped into this world a destiny! I still f * cking yell that fatalism is fake every day!
I have to destroy it, I have to destroy it …
Let me bear my own mistakes! "
The voice that was filled with madness gradually drifted away, and the scene also slowly dissipated.
Li Changshou looked at the last page in front of him and quickly confirmed that it was the last page of the yearbook written by Senior Lang. The scribbled words on it were similar to what he had heard just now.
He sensed a faint change in the aura around the Dao Ancestor. He could not help but open his eyes and look at the Dao Ancestor again.
This time, a few figures appeared in the Dao Ancestor's eyes.
A young man dressed in blood-colored armor and holding a pitch-black divine spear, an old man with a huge hole in his chest, and Daoist Bai Jing, who was sleeping peacefully on the rocking chair.
Fiend Ancestor Rahu, Randeng, and Senior Lang.
Apart from Senior Lang, Rahu, Randeng, and Dao Ancestor Hong Jun spoke at the same time. The three voices were mixed into one. It was actually rough and heavy.
"No one can destroy the Primordial World that we created."
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Hong Jun closed his eyes. When he opened them again, there was no longer the strange phenomenon from before. It condensed into a sentence.
"Yes, so what?"
Hong Jun sighed and said, "Although I was unwilling to admit my background and even used earthworms and crickets to cover it up, it was ultimately just a problem of my background.
Now, I is the Dao Protector of the world. You can't deny that.
For this world, I killed the main personality that gave birth to I. "
"For the world?"
Li Changshou laughed.
"Don't deceive yourself. Which of the things you did was for the world?
Fellow Daoist, Senior Lang was injured when the world was created. Then, he found a place to recuperate and slept for a long time.
If I'm not wrong, the reason why Senior Lang slept for the entire ancient times was because he was sealed by you, right?
From the moment Senior Lang's True Spirit split, you had already betrayed the main personality.
You shared memories and knew that Senior Lang subconsciously thought of the Primordial World. However, you took the name of Hong Jun and became a Dao Ancestor. That was the beginning of your ambition.
The other personalities were just schemed against by you. You carefully planned the matter of devouring the main personality.
Every step you took was extremely ingenious. I even suspect that when you split your True Spirit for the second time and split yourself into the Fiend Ancestor and the coffin Lao Dao, you changed the cognition of the two 'larger' personalities.
Otherwise, how could the Fiend Ancestor fall for it so foolishly? "
Hong Jun smiled and said, "That's purely your guess."
"That's right. I can't find any evidence for these things," Li Changshou said calmly. "Unless I find the Fiend Ancestor's corpse or wake up the Primordial Phoenix from the Undying Volcano."
Hong Jun's smile froze.
The bamboo forest fell into silence again. The gray aura between the two figures had already been put away by Li Changshou. The book that appeared behind Li Changshou also quietly dissipated.
Li Changshou said, "Fellow Daoist, aren't you going to admit defeat? I've already seen through your background. "
"How did I lose?"
Hong Jun said calmly, "On the other hand, if you can really defeat I, how will you deal with this world?
Destroy the Primordial World? "
"How can that be?" Li Changshou smiled and said, "I think this world is quite good.
It is a miniature of the mythical system of my hometown. It is connected to the culture of my hometown. It is very close and very novel.
For a newborn world, what direction would it not develop in?
Senior Lang's subconscious provided a model for this world. It affected the evolution of the initial spiritual energy ball and created such a beautiful world. Isn't it good to let it exist?
Fellow Daoist, haven't you realized?
The problem is not what the world is like or what living beings are like.
This kind of world that can only exist in the myths of my hometown is already quite good.
The problem is with you, with the Heavenly Dao.
Can't you let this world escape its shackles and let it extend and develop according to the mutual influence of living beings and the Dao laws?
There's no need to say that the Primordial World has to shatter into a boundless starry sky. There's no need to say that there's a solar system and an azure star.
The universe of my hometown is grander.
Isn't it good to let the Primordial World develop on its own? Isn't it good to let the Heavenly Dao lose its selfish desires and leave the essence of the world? The world and the Great Dao do not have any consciousness.
Isn't that good? I object to Senior Lang's plan to destroy the world. That's an irresponsible way of escaping. Such a crude way of escaping and not finding a remedy is too crude. "
Li Changshou's gaze was rather sincere. "Fellow Daoist, let go. Give the world freedom and living beings freedom."
Hong Jun squinted and stared at Li Changshou.
Li Changshou said,
"Fellow Daoist, didn't you say that you were doing it for the good of the world?
This question seems to have hit your sore spot. Fellow Daoist, you can't answer for a while, right?
That's because you have never thought of letting go of the world!
The Heavenly Dao is your stepping stone. After killing Senior Lang, you have already made up for yourself. You are now Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, a living being who wants to control the world and the Chaos Sea.
You spread the Essence Soul Dao and promote the so-called Three Corpse Slaying Technique.
Fellow Daoist, the Three Corpse Slaying Technique that you taught me back then was brilliant. However, after this cultivation technique, I felt your morbid mentality for the first time.
You have a good self, but you insist on cutting off your own corpse, good corpse, and evil corpse.
I can't help but suspect that you want the Qi Refinement cultivators to be like you. You are imagining that you are the 'true self'.
Everything is just to satisfy your distorted Dao heart. Don't mention anything else. It's all for the world.
This world was crippled by the few of you in the ancient times! "
"Forget it. You and I can't understand each other."
"Fellow Daoist, you make me feel disgusted now …"
For the first time, Li Changshou felt speechless as he looked at the Dao Ancestor in front of him with a regretful expression.
"You and I still have to fight in the end." Hong Jun did not mind Li Changshou's complaints at all. "In that case, I'll believe that you have a trump card that can threaten I.
How do you want to fight and when?
This is the last care a senior has for a junior.
Actually, Changshou … if you had chosen to cultivate the Three Corpse Slaying Technique that I gave you back then, I would have indeed given you the position of the Dao Ancestor and explored the path back to the blue planet myself. "
Li Changshou shook his head.
"That way, I'm too unstable. I don't even dare to let paper effigies have consciousness.
Don't say such emotional words. Fellow Daoist, your words are actually meaningless. "
Li Changshou paused and looked down. He saw the Dharma spell mirror on the desk. Sun Wukong had already opened his eyes and was looking at the dark clouds in the sky. He was in a daze.
"He's awake."
The smile on the Dao Ancestor's lips became wider. "Before we fight, why don't we see how far he can go?"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you're also stalling for time."
"Oh? Why do you say that? "
"You're just taking the time to devour the Heavenly Dao." Li Changshou raised his hand and pointed. An image slowly appeared behind the Dao Ancestor.
Outside the Purple Cloud Palace, a jade disc rotated rapidly. There was a huge cauldron suppressed under it.
In the huge cauldron, a colorful figure sat quietly. It was being refined by the Cosmic Cauldron, and wisps of light darted into the jade disc.
Outside the cauldron, four gray-robed Lao Dao sat cross-legged and extended their palms towards the Cosmic Cauldron.
Seeing that, Li Changshou remained calm and said leisurely, "Fellow Daoist, you can fool the Heavenly Dao to destroy its own will.
Fellow Daoist, you're really impressive to be able to trick the Heavenly Dao into destroying its own will.
However …
The will of the Heavenly Dao was originally triggered by you at the end of the ancient times. Even if you devour the will of the Heavenly Dao, you will only have a stronger control of the Heavenly Dao. It's not much different from now. "
Hong Jun said, "You don't seem to be worried that I will completely control the world."
Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything. He stared at Sun Wukong's figure that was beginning to be surrounded by flames and smiled.
"The so-called trump card naturally has to be used at the crucial moment to make the final decision.
Fellow Daoist, you can do whatever you want. When you're ready, I will naturally give you the sense of ceremony that you deserve. "
In other words …
If his main body could arrive here now, he would have long attacked.
However, Li Changshou did not intend to fight the Dao Ancestor.
The way he "raised" the Dao Ancestor was not to fight. Teacher Taiqing had tried that and could not solve the fundamental problem.
