Hongjun, Rho, Sanqing, Nüwa, Summon, Zhunti and so on were born in every Great Desolation. Of course, Haotian and Ancestor River Styx were born as well. But in every epoch, the Fated Chances and achievements of each individual differed greatly. In my case, in the Eighth Epoch, I proved the Great Way of the Origin in the Battle of Deification. I was also the first one to prove the Great Way of the Origin in the Great Desolation. "
After hearing this, Minghe kept silent. He kept deducing this information in his mind. If what Haotian said was true, then there were eight Ancestor Minghe before him, as well as eight Hongjun, eight Luohou, eight Three Pure Ones, and so on. Thinking about it this way, it was really a little scary.
Haotian also mentioned that the Battle of Deification had the same people and the same things. Could it be that the general trend of Tendo in the nine epochs of the Great Desolation was the same? The only difference was some minor trends. It was really amazing that Haotian could prove the Great Way of the Origin in the Battle of Deification. After all, Haotian was born very late. To be the first one to prove the Great Way in the Great Desolation, he either had extraordinary talent or had some Fated Chances.
River Styx kept silent, so Haotian continued, "After the Seventh Tribulation of Heaven and Earth in the Great Desolation, the Battlefield of Deification and Demons opened. At that time, I broke into the Battlefield of Deification and Demons with Hongjun, Sages and other people who proved the Great Way of the Origin to look for the so-called Fated Chances of the Great Way. But the Battlefield of Deification and Demons was not what we expected, especially after entering the middle level of the Battlefield of Deification and Demons."
Haotian looked at River Styx with confusion and said, "I forgot that Daoist Friend should have just entered the Battlefield of Deification and Demons, so you don't know much about it. The Battlefield of Deification and Demons is a Chaotic World, which is directly controlled by the Great Way. It is divided into the lower level, the middle level, the upper level and the core area. Now we are in the lower level."
Hearing the mention of the Chaotic World, River Styx asked, "Daoist Friend just said that the Battlefield of Deification and Demons is a Chaotic World. What is the level of the Great Desolation?" River Styx's Good Corpse, Qiankun Taoist, cultivated the Great Way of the World, so he was naturally curious about the levels of the world. In the past, he was confused, but now Haotian in front of him seemed to know, so he naturally would not miss this opportunity.
Hearing this, Haotian explained, "Daoist Friend, look at my Celestial Court. The 36 heavens are connected, which is a Small World. Above the Small World, there are the Medium World, the Great World, and above the Great World, there is the Chaotic World. Each level of the world is divided into four small levels, the Low Level, the Middle Level, the High Level and the Perfect Level. When I was born in the Eighth Era of the Great Desolation, it was a High Level World, but by the time of the Immeasurable Tribulation, it had weakened to a Medium Level World."
River Styx naturally knew that the world was weakening. As the number of creatures in a world increased, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and the resources of the world were gradually exhausted, and the world lost the opportunity to upgrade. Naturally, it would weaken. This was also the reason why River Styx had been constantly refining the Chaotic Qi in the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth and transforming it into Innate Spiritual Qi to supplement the World of Heaven and Earth.
However, to River Styx's surprise, the current Great Desolation did not seem to weaken. To be precise, its weakening seemed to have stopped, and there were signs that it would continue to upgrade. This made River Styx very curious. According to Haotian, the Battlefield of Gods and Demons opened when the Eighth Era of the Great Desolation went through the Seventh Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, but the Ninth Era of the Great Desolation had not reached the Seventh Tribulation of Heaven and Earth. Could it be that the opening time of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was not fixed?
River Styx did not continue to disturb Haotian, so Haotian continued, "Every level of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons has a World Crystal Wall. It doesn't take any effort to go from the bottom level to the top level, but if you go from the top level to the bottom level, your cultivation will be suppressed by the Law of Heaven and Earth.
In the bottom level, the highest cultivation is the Half-step to Creation Realm. If you want to break through to a higher cultivation, you have to enter the middle level. However, although there are few Fierce Beasts of Chaos in the middle level, there are other creatures, including creatures in the Creation Realm. Oh, in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, Origin is divided into three realms: the Zenith Heaven Realm, the Creation Realm, and the Infinite Realm. Daoist Friend is now at the peak of the Zenith Heaven Realm. "
Speaking of this, Haotian's face showed a trace of sadness, but it disappeared in a flash, and he continued, "Back then, I cultivated to the level that Daoist Friend is at today in the bottom level of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, and then I entered the middle level with Zhen Yuanzi, Daoist Friend River Styx, Daoist Friend Kunpeng, and several others, hoping to break through to a higher level.
Unfortunately, we were too unlucky. The middle level of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons is much larger than the bottom level, but there are fewer creatures in it. Not long after we entered the middle level, we encountered a Strange Beast in the Creation Realm. Zhen Yuanzi's Daoist Friend died on the spot, River Styx and Kunpeng were seriously injured and fled, and I was beaten until only a wisp of my soul was left. I could only escape back here and create this Secret Realm for the fated one. "
Speaking of this, Haotian sighed heavily, "Alas, if I had known that I would make such a mistake today, I would not have been so impulsive. Although the middle level is more conducive to cultivation than the bottom level, it is also more dangerous. I can only blame myself for being too eager to improve my cultivation, which led to today's situation. I hope Daoist Friend can take this as a lesson and enter the middle level of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons when I reach the peak of the Half-step Creation Realm, and then break through to the Zenith Heaven Realm in one go.
After hearing this, River Styx asked, "Since Daoist Friend has been at the bottom level and entered the middle level, I believe Daoist Friend must have collected a lot of information. Poor Way has just arrived here and knows very little about the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. I hope Daoist Friend will not be stingy with your information. Poor Way will be very grateful." It would be best if he could get some information about the Battlefield of Gods and Demons from Haotian. It would also save him a lot of effort.
Hearing this, Haotian smiled and said, "I am a dying man, so it is useless to keep this information. Since Daoist Friend needs it, I will be frank with you. However, the Battlefield of Gods and Demons is huge, and I have not even been to the bottom level. As for the middle level, I know even less. I hope this information will be useful to Daoist Friend."
After saying that, Haotian waved his sleeve, and a jade slip on the table in front of him flew to River Styx. River Styx reached out and took it. After checking that there was no danger, he read it with ease. This jade slip recorded information about a large area at the bottom level of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons and the feys that grew there. It was much more than what River Styx knew. Moreover, it also recorded some information about the middle level of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, which was extremely useful to River Styx. After all, he would have to go there sooner or later.
When River Styx finished reading all the information in the jade slip, he looked up at Haotian and saw that Haotian's remnant soul had become somewhat illusory and unstable. It was obvious that Haotian's remnant soul did not have much time left. It would not be long before it completely dissipated. Therefore, River Styx asked in a deep voice, "Does Daoist Tendo have any unfulfilled wishes, Daoist Friend Haotian?"
When Haotian heard this, he said with some melancholy, "Haha … I am a dying man, and I have no more desires. However, I still have some unfulfilled wishes. Daoist Friend, when you enter the middle level and meet Yaochi of the Eighth Era, please tell her for me that I am sorry for her. Also, if you meet River Styx and Kunpeng, you must …" When River Styx and Kunpeng were mentioned, Haotian's face showed anger, but it turned into a sigh in the end.
From what he said, it seemed that the matter back then was not simple at all. Since Haotian hated those two so much, River Styx could guess that they must have abandoned Haotian and fled. However, when he thought that there was more than one River Styx, River Styx always felt strange. He wondered whether River Styx of the Eighth Era was still alive. If he was alive, his cultivation must be amazing.
If River Styx met them, he might not be able to fight back. Just now, Haotian probably wanted River Styx to avenge him, but when he thought that River Styx was one era away from the two, he gave up. All the enmity later turned into a helpless sigh. All the enmity in his previous life was nothing to Haotian now.
When Haotian's remnant soul became more turbulent, Haotian put away his sadness and said, "There is one more thing that I would like to ask of you, Daoist Friend. That is the inheritance I left in the Haotian Mirror. With your current cultivation, you must have found your own Tao. Then I would like to trouble you to find an inheritor for me, so that my Tao can continue. As for the Celestial Court and the Haotian Mirror, if you want them, I will give them to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Haotian's remnant soul began to dissipate, turning into starlight little by little, and gradually dissipating in the Celestial Court. It seemed particularly desolate. In the Lingxiao Palace, Haotian's last voice echoed, "Ha-ha … Millions of years of cultivation have finally turned into nothingness. Although I die, I have no regrets. Ha-ha …"
Hearing Haotian's last laughter, River Styx's face was emotionless. Although he got what he wanted, and he was not the one who died, he could not feel happy. On the way of pursuing the Tao, who could guarantee that he would not be the next Haotian? Who could guarantee that he would always have a smooth journey? River Styx could not guarantee it, and neither could Hongjun. Only by constantly advancing and becoming stronger, until the end of cultivation and the Invincible Realm, could he be qualified to look down on everything.
When Haotian's remnant soul completely dissipated, the Haotian Mirror, the Celestial Court, and this small world all had some subtle changes. A sense of sadness reverberated between heaven and earth, as if they also felt the passing of Haotian. It was extremely sad, as if a dynasty had lost its emperor. Even the light of the Haotian Mirror and the Celestial Court dimmed a lot, as if they had become ownerless.
