The intense light made it impossible for Gu Zheng to see anything clearly. All that was left in front of him was red light.
However, the continuous red light changed after a while, and Gu Zheng was able to see again.
The sun quickly set and the moon quickly rose and disappeared. Everything quickly cycled and changed in Gu Zheng's eyes. The trees around him were the same. They went from flourishing to declining, and from declining to flourishing.
The only thing that was different from everything around him was Gu Zheng's body. In just a moment, he went from a toothless old man to his original appearance when he entered the dream.
"Alternating prosperity and decline, the cycle of reincarnation. Life and death, death and life."
Gu Zheng, who stood up, seemed to have understood something. He waved his hand and the fallen leaves on the ground returned to the tree, glowing with vitality.
At this moment, the black and white scene in front of Gu Zheng seemed to have encountered a whirlpool. It spun rapidly until black and white could not be distinguished, and then black and white could not be distinguished.
This was not under the tree in front of the door. Everything that could be seen in all directions was a huge Taiji diagram.
Space trembled and the Taiji diagram in all directions shattered, turning into countless black and white dots.
At this moment, Gu Zheng was standing in the void. The black dots that the Taiji diagram had turned into dimmed stars, and the white dots that the Taiji diagram had turned into glowing stars. However, all of this only existed for a moment. All the black and white stars gathered, turning into two people, one black and one white, who looked like Gu Zheng.
"The Dao of Heaven and Earth, using Yin and Yang to create all things."
"Heaven and Earth, Sun and Moon, Thunder and Lightning, Wind and Rain, Four Seasons, Four Seasons, Male and Female, Hard and Soft, Movement and Concealment. All things are divided into Yin and Yang. The principle of life is to use Yin and Yang to nourish the bones, meridians, bones, flesh, abdomen, back, five viscera, six bowels, and even seven damages and eight benefits. Everything in one's body is in accordance with the principle of Yin and Yang. "
"The Dao of Yin and Yang, the Dao of Heaven and Earth, the Dao of Creation!"
The black and white versions of himself said the same words. Gu Zheng had heard these words many times, and each time he had a different understanding.
"Kacha …"
The scene in front of him shattered, and Gu Zheng woke up from his deep sleep.
Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Zheng immediately broke the seal in the stone room and left Lin Dongliang's cave like a gust of wind.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Bai!"
When Gu Zheng rushed out of the cave, he heard Lin Yi and Lin Xin shouting behind him. Their voices were filled with shock and envy.
In the dream, when Gu Zheng raised his hand to revive the fallen leaf, the phenomenon of heaven and earth had already appeared in the real world. The Lin Family's mountain was howling with wind, sand and stones were flying, and auspicious clouds were gathering in the sky.
The clouds in the sky were not dark clouds that were about to rain. This made Lin Yi and Lin Xin very shocked, because the wind was howling, the sand was flying, and the energy of heaven and earth was being controlled by an invisible force. In addition, the clouds that appeared in the sky were auspicious clouds. The only explanation was that a cultivator had comprehended the power of law, and heaven and earth had blessed him.
Before Lin Dongliang consumed the food, Gu Zheng left in a hurry. In fact, Lin Yi and Lin Xi both knew that he was going to experience some mysterious realm! In addition, he rushed out of the cave like lightning. Who else could it be but him to receive the blessing of heaven and earth?
Although Lin Yi and Lin Xi told the Lin Family not to panic, many cultivators of the Lin Family had already gathered together on the mountain top. They all wanted to see who was going to be blessed by heaven and earth.
Comprehending the power of law would not always be blessed by heaven and earth. This depended on what kind of law was comprehended. Only by comprehending an extremely powerful law would one be able to receive the blessing of heaven and earth.
Gu Zheng floated in the air. The auspicious clouds in the sky scattered light on his body. The surging energy of heaven and earth around him was converted into Immortal Essence and crazily poured into his body.
Gu Zheng happily absorbed the Immortal Essence and felt the joy of the Immortal Essence Ball changing because of this.
A moment later.
The wind stopped, and the auspicious clouds in the sky disappeared without a trace. The last ray of light that enveloped Gu Zheng's body was also absorbed into his body.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Bai!"
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Bai!"
"..."
Following Lin Xin's first congratulations, congratulatory voices sounded from all around.
Being able to comprehend the law was already an incredible thing, let alone comprehending the law that could make heaven and earth produce blessings. Such people were often blazing sun-like existences and were destined to be extraordinary.
Gu Zheng smiled and nodded at everyone. Without saying anything, he walked towards Lin Dongliang's cave.
In fact, it was not that Gu Zheng did not say anything. It was just that his words were all in his heart. He was communicating with the happy Artifact Spirit.
"I really didn't expect that you would be able to comprehend a trace of the law of time this time. This is really a great blessing. I wonder how happy Lord Gokusen will be when he finds out!" The Artifact Spirit said excitedly.
Among all the laws, the highest level of law was undoubtedly time and space. However, Gu Zheng did not comprehend much of the law of time this time. It was not enough to use in a battle! Of course, this not enough referred to when Gu Zheng faced a strong enemy. If the enemy was weaker than him, the law of time could also be useful. However, when facing such an enemy, there was almost no need to use the law of time.
"Although it's only a trace of the law of time, it's still very good. It's like opening a door for me. As long as the door is opened, I can walk through the door when I have the chance in the future. I don't have to be like ordinary people who can't even touch the door."
Gu Zheng was very gratified. It was really a great blessing to be able to comprehend the law of time! As for the door that he mentioned, it was a coincidence that he was interrupted by Taoist Xian Yun in the mysterious realm. Since then, every time he had a big promotion, the black and white versions of himself would appear. Taoist Xian Yun's interruption made it easier for Gu Zheng to come into contact with the law. This was the benefit of opening the door.
"This time, in the dream, the black and white versions of myself actually appeared at the end and said the same thing as before. I think this is also a great opportunity!" Gu Zheng said.
"Oh? What do you mean? "the Device Spirit asked.
"I think that when I advance to the Daluo Jinxian in the mysterious realm, the black and white versions of myself will appear again will be very important. I think it's very likely that I will be able to comprehend the law of time!" Gu Zheng said.
"That's great!" the Device Spirit cheered.
Then, it said, "Originally, even with the Ginseng of Northern Reed, one sacred fruit cultivation was not enough to let you advance from the late Jin Xian to the Daluo Jinxian. However, this time, comprehending the law of time allowed the energy of heaven and earth to bless you. Your cultivation improved a lot out of thin air. Under this premise, one sacred fruit cultivation should be able to advance to the Daluo Jinxian."
"Yes! I really didn't expect that one diet therapy session would let me gain so much! "
Gu Zheng was very emotional. He originally thought that this diet therapy session would increase his understanding of the Tao in terms of diet. He did not expect that the gains would be far more than that. After all, the law of time encompassed a lot of things. Life and death, prosperity and decline, and so on were all under the influence of time.
Although Gu Zheng did not need to use the law of time when facing a strong enemy, the law of time still had a miraculous effect on diet and other aspects! For example, if the damaged Ginseng of Northern Reed was transplanted into the Chaotic Space, it would be able to recover in three years. However, under the effect of Gu Zheng's law of time, the time it needed to recover would be reduced by at least one-third!
When Gu Zheng returned to the cave residence, Lin Xin was still looking after Lin Dongliang's body. As for Lin Dongliang's soul, it had already wandered to the deepest part of the cave residence and was being looked after by Lin Yi.
Gu Zheng was finally free. Naturally, Lin Yi and Lin Xin could not help but congratulate him. However, what law Gu Zheng had comprehended was a secret of Gu Zheng. Lin Yi and Lin Xin were very tactful and did not ask about it.
"Fellow Taoist Bai, how is my Ancestor's situation?"
After a few words of small talk, Lin Xin asked.
"There is still the power of the curse in his body and soul. This is not beyond my expectations. You can rest assured. As far as the current situation is concerned, the effect of the diet treatment is very good. At least your Ancestor's soul is not in pain. This means that the method was used correctly, "Gu Zheng said.
"Fellow Taoist Bai, what should we do next?" Lin Yi asked.
"Next, we will wait according to the original plan. According to my initial estimation, the power of the curse will dissipate in fifteen days at the latest."
Gu Zheng's voice paused, then he smiled and said, "If you want to shorten the waiting time, it is not impossible!"
Waiting was a very anxious thing, not to mention that Lin Dongliang was the pillar and backbone of the Lin family. As soon as Gu Zheng said this, Lin Yi and Lin Xi asked in unison, "How can we shorten the time?"
"The law I have just comprehended is the law of time. I can shorten the waiting time through the power of the law!"
"What?"
"The power of the law?"
Before they had time to be excited that the waiting time could be shortened, Lin Yi and Lin Xin both widened their eyes. They knew that the law Gu Zheng comprehended this time was extraordinary, but they did not expect it to be the most profound law of time. After all, the law of time and the law of space were the most difficult to comprehend among all the laws!
In the face of Lin Yi and Lin Xin's surprise, Gu Zheng just smiled and nodded.
"There won't be any disadvantages to using the law of time to shorten the time, right? If there are no disadvantages, you can shorten the time. The waiting is too torturous. "
Lin Xin's cultivation was at the Late-stage of Void Return. Although she was born in the Untainted Land and had heard many rumors about the law of time, she still wanted Gu Zheng's confirmation.
"Of course, no problem."
Gu Zheng was very sure that the law was the greatest power. The power of the curse was nothing compared to it. Now, his understanding of the law of time was still limited, and the magic that he could use was limited. However, if his understanding of the law of time was strong enough, he could even make the power of the curse disappear through the reversal of time, and the cultivation of the Lin family's Patriarch would not be reduced.
"I'm so looking forward to seeing the legendary law of time!"
Lin Yi's cultivation was at the Middle-stage of Void Return. Although she had never had a cultivation partner in her life, she was still considered a great beauty. At this time, when she looked at Gu Zheng, her eyes were twinkling like stars. She even boldly winked at Gu Zheng!
Lin Yi was a person who thought highly of herself. If she were an ordinary woman, she might have winked at Gu Zheng after knowing that he had trampled on the Chen family by himself. After all, it was normal to pursue a cultivation partner in the Untainted Land. However, Lin Yi became so unrestrained after knowing that Gu Zheng had comprehended the law of time. It had to be said that the law of time made her feel at ease.
If it were on Earth, Gu Zheng would feel a little flustered at this time. After all, when he was on Earth, he would feel a little uncomfortable in the face of Lian Yuxin's teasing. Although it had been five years since he entered the Untainted Land, Gu Zheng was still the same in terms of feelings as he was on Earth.
But now, it was different. Gu Zheng had experienced ninety-nine years in the dream. These ninety-nine years were a person's complete life. He had experienced the joys and sorrows of partings and reunions, happiness and anger, sorrow and joy, peach blossoms, and so on. Therefore, at this moment, in the face of Lin Yi's coquettish eyes, Gu Zheng just calmly avoided them.
"You're going to be disappointed. You can't see the law of time."
Gu Zheng shook his head with a smile and pressed his hand on Lin Dongliang's head. The only thing that Lin Yi and Lin Xin could see was a halo flashing above Lin Dongliang's head.
Lin Yi and Lin Xin could not see what the law of time looked like, but Gu Zheng could see. In his eyes, Lin Dongliang's corpse only lasted for a moment, and it looked like it should be seven days later.
If it was an ordinary person, livor mortis might appear on the corpse even two hours after death, let alone seven days. However, Lin Dongliang was an immortal cultivator after all. His corpse was different from ordinary people. Even under the influence of the law of time, it looked like seven days later in an instant. However, there were still no changes like livor mortis on his corpse.
After turning Lin Dongliang's corpse into what it should be seven days later, Gu Zheng found Lin Dongliang's soul and turned it into what it should be seven days later.
The soul was different from the physical body. No matter how dull it was, it was still a living thing. When the law of time acted on it, it immediately appeared a little anxious, and this anxiety came from instinct.
According to common sense, after a person died, the soul left the body and quickly entered the Underworld. However, the soul did not enter by itself. It was taken away by the ghost servants of the Underworld, and the legendary Ox-Head and Horse-Face were ghost servants.
However, immortal cultivation was against the heavens. For someone like Lin Dongliang who died in the cave abode, his soul could not be sensed by the Underworld. Even if it was sensed, it could not be captured. After all, with Lin Yi and Lin Xin protecting him, the restriction in the cave abode could prevent ordinary ghost servants from entering.
However, when a person died, their soul returned to the Underworld. This was a part of the Dao. If a person's soul did not enter the Underworld after death, it would disappear between heaven and earth in two or three days. For someone like Lin Dongliang, because of the special environment of the cave abode, he could stay for half a month. If his soul was specially nurtured by someone, he could also survive for a long time.
Gu Zheng used the law of time to turn seven days into a snap of his fingers. Although Lin Dongliang's soul was dull, he could still feel the danger of death, which was why he was so anxious.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, how much time did you shorten?" Lin Xin asked.
"I shortened it by seven days," Gu Zheng said.
"According to your original plan, you would wake my ancestor up in fifteen days. Now that you've shortened it by seven days, is there a relatively accurate number of days?"
As if she was afraid that Gu Zheng would be angry, Lin Xin seemed very hesitant when she asked.
Gu Zheng understood the suffering of waiting, so he was not angry because of it. He smiled and said, "According to the current signs, the power of the curse will dissipate in about nine days."
Because Lin Xin and the others did not have enough cultivation, they could not see things as clearly as Gu Zheng. On the surface, there was still a lot of curse power, but in Gu Zheng's eyes, it was already showing signs of dissipating, whether it was in Lin Jiadong's body or his soul.
Unfortunately, the same power of time could not be used on Lin Dongliang again. Otherwise, Gu Zheng would not want to wait any longer.
The first day passed very quickly. In fact, it was equivalent to seven days.
On the second day of treating Lin Dongliang's illness, which was equivalent to eight days, the dissipation of the curse power became very obvious. Even Lin Yi and Lin Xin could see it.
The excited Lin Yi and Lin Xin told the good news to a few people in the family. After all, only a few people knew that Lin Dongliang was sick.
As midnight approached, Gu Zheng, who had been cultivating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. He felt a slight chill coming from the ground.
"Lin Yi, look after your ancestor's soul!"
Gu Zheng understood this, so he quickly knew that a ghost had come to lock up the soul.
Sure enough, when Lin Yi heard Gu Zheng's words and became alert, the ground of the cave mansion shook slightly. A ghost with a green face, fangs, and four arms appeared in the cave mansion.
As soon as the ghost appeared, it saw Lin Yi and Lin Xin, who were guarding Lin Dongliang's soul.
"Two immortal cultivators of the Void Return realm, I advise you not to go against me. You are not my opponent. Let me take away the soul behind you!"
To be able to ignore the restriction and appear in Lin Dongliang's cave mansion, and to be able to see Lin Yi and Lin Xin's cultivation at a glance, the ghost's strength was not ordinary.
In fact, the Underworld was not as weak as it was written in novels. After all, it was a world of its own. It was just that the cultivation environment was extremely poor. Among the Nine Worlds, it was not as good as the Underworld.
"He is only an out-of-body soul, not a real dead soul, so he does not belong to the Underworld." Lin Yi said.
"Hehe!"
The ghost laughed. "Are you lying to me? Or do you think I am easy to fool? This dead soul does not have a trace of life aura, and you say his soul is out of body? "
The Underworld had the Book of Life and Death, but the Underworld only had the Book of Life and Death for mortals. There was no Book of Life and Death for immortal cultivators. After all, becoming an immortal cultivator, in a sense, could be considered as breaking away from a part of one's destiny. Because of this, the ghost did not use the Book of Life and Death as a solid evidence.
"Our immortal cultivators' immortal arts are mysterious. How can you ghost servants of the Underworld understand it?" Lin Xin frowned.
"This ghost servant does not want to talk nonsense with you. Are you going to move or not?"
The ghost servant laughed strangely. Suddenly, four ghost weapons appeared in his four empty hands. A mourning staff, a soul summoning bell, a soul restraining chain, and a token.
As soon as the ghost weapons appeared, the gloomy aura immediately made Lin Xin and Lin Yi feel uncomfortable. Behind them, Lin Dongliang's soul was attracted by the ghost weapons, and immediately wanted to go past them to get close to the ghost servant.
A whirlwind rose, and Lin Dongliang's soul was swept to the deepest part of the cave mansion. Gu Zheng walked out of the stone room and appeared behind Lin Yi and Lin Xin.
"There is actually another person!"
Seeing Gu Zheng appear, the ghost servant first sneered, and then the two huge eyes on the ghost face almost fell out.
"Da, Daluo Jinxian!"
The ghost servant looked at Gu Zheng with fear, and his voice was a little stuttering.
