A month later, a spirited Lou Xiaoyi left the celestial phenomenon where the Sirens lived. He left decisively and no one sent him off!
The transaction was completed. They did not owe each other anything!
Arriving at the void, he needed to determine the direction. He needed to hurry!
He did not want to wait until the future to make a trip to solve the problem of the Azure Lion. He also did not want to gather the Shadow Sword Sect to make a big fuss. He was alone. He had the most freedom and freedom to do as he pleased!
Because according to the Sirens, the Sirens were the biggest opponent in the Negative Space for thousands of years. In fact, the Sirens were not prosperous. This was due to the characteristics of the Azure Lion. For example, there was only one Azure Lion in the nearby airspace. There were three True Monarch Azure Lions, eleven Yuanying, and no more than ten Jin Dan cubs. They were a small group. However, because of their good fighting power and teamwork, they were also famous in the nearby airspace.
The key was that they had Buddhism as their backing. Ordinary forces did not dare to provoke them!
Lou Xiaoyi really did not care about these! As a fugitive in the Negative Space, being alone meant that he could do whatever he wanted as long as he was not afraid of death!
… … …
In the Negative Space, there was also a Dharma Assembly. This was a festival that belonged to the Natives. It was very difficult for outsiders to participate. They did not even know about it. In the Negative Space, the vitality was hidden in the rare celestial phenomenon. These celestial phenomena were usually not on the route that the Main World cultivators placed in the Negative Space. Hence, it was very difficult for outsiders to notice.
It was the same for places like the Sirens and the Indigo Lions that relied on their nests!
In order not to get lost, the Main World cultivators would strictly follow the directions of the route when flying in the Negative Space. They would fly on a fixed route and would rarely turn around randomly. This was because the consequences of turning around randomly were very scary. You would not be able to find the way back!
The natives referred to the void beasts that wandered in the Negative Space, various ancient beasts. Of course, there was also the owner of the Negative Space – the cultivators of the Heaven's Choice Continent!
There was only one kind of outsider, the cultivators from the Main World! They were also viewed as enemies by the natives of the Negative Space. Fortunately, the cultivators from the Main World never had the goal of invading the Negative Space. They basically came to the Negative Space for one purpose – to take shortcuts!
After a long time, they formed a peaceful balance.
On this day, the famous celestial phenomenon in the Negative Space, the Heavenly Plains, ushered in the once-in-a-decade Dharma Assembly, the Lion's Roar Assembly.
Dangji Tianyuan was actually an annular belt of a large planet. It was mainly formed by the collapse of the large planet itself, or by a small number of scattered meteorites in the universe that were attracted here. Under the attraction of the large planet, it formed an annular belt of meteorites. Because the composition of the meteorites here was quite special, they were like honeycombs of various sizes, so when they revolved around the large planet, they would emit cavity noises unique to the universe.
This kind of noise didn't spread through the air but existed in the form of a shock wave. In fact, in the universe, this kind of shock wave was everywhere. It was a sound that belonged to the universe.
The problem was that when the countless beehives of various sizes in the annular belt emitted this kind of shock wave together, the noise formed was very terrifying. Ordinary creatures would not be able to tolerate it. It was a kind of endless mental harassment, just like how ordinary humans could not tolerate a decibel higher than 100 decibels.
Such a special celestial ring was called the Heavenly Plains by the natives!
And the azure lions were one of the masters here!
They were one of the masters! Because there were other lion groups here, such as the red lion group, the white lion group, the manticore group, and so on. They didn't bother with the noise, instead, they enjoyed this kind of sound, just like birds in the sky and fish in the sea!
This was the habit of an individual group, and it was understandable.
Every few decades, a similar dharma assembly would be held in the Heavenly Plains. It was unknown how it started, but it was definitely supported by the power of Buddhism. Only human cultivators would like to spread their faith like this.
The power of Buddhism mentioned here didn't refer to the power of Buddhism from the Autonomous World, but the monks from the Heaven's Choice Continent!
Under the suppression of Daoism, the monks of the Origin World didn't have any extra power to send to these barbaric and untameable ancient strange beasts.
In the void of the universe, there were many kinds of creatures. Ordinary cultivators couldn't see them because the universe was too vast, but it wasn't because they didn't exist. Among these creatures, the difference between void beasts and ancient strange beasts was very difficult for outsiders to distinguish, but there was a very basic principle here:
Void beasts would never be enlightened, they were used to freedom, if they didn't have freedom, they would rather die! No matter if it was Buddhism or Daoism, it was useless no matter who came. They would never have a fixed place to live, they would always wander in the void, and they would always act based on their instincts. These were void beasts!
Strange beasts were different. Not to mention ancient strange beasts, they were too high-end, and their existences in the universe were usually in the single digits. They basically stayed in the Heaven's Choice Continent to fight against humans, they wouldn't wander in the void of the universe. Those that lived in the negative space were usually ancient strange beasts, like the sirens and lions, there were many of them.
Their characteristic was that they could partially accept the enlightenment and influence of humans. Some were more Buddhist, like the azure lions; some were more Daoist, like the four odd beasts; most of them were uncertain, they would be whoever they met, they would be whoever they met, they were full of variables!
Ancient strange beasts had places to settle down, they were usually at the Celestial Phenomenon level. They had their own groups and racial structure, unlike void beasts, where the son didn't recognize the father, and the grandfather would swallow the grandson …
Swang Ji Tian Yuan was a paradise for lions, because they enjoyed this kind of noise all the time, it also gave birth to one of their instinctive divine abilities, Lion's Roar!
But there were differences between different groups of lions. For example, the azure lions were focused on Buddhism, other groups of lions didn't have such a preference. Swang Ji Tian Yuan had more than ten groups of lions, they were all different and wilder, but there was one thing, none of them were biased towards Daoism. What was going on?
Were lions and Daoism at odds?
It was also because of this that the azure lions would hold a dharma assembly every few decades to spread Buddhism, hoping to bring Buddhism to greater heights in Swang Ji Tian Yuan. This was a predictable goal, it just needed time, because for stubborn creatures like ancient strange beasts, it was a slow process to change their beliefs from generation to generation.
Fortunately, the Buddhists never lacked patience!
Such enlightenment was everywhere in the negative space, in the main world! This was one of the methods Buddhism used to fight against Daoism. Not only did they have to compete with humans, they also had to compete with other cultivation creatures. Because Daoism didn't place enough importance on these ancient creatures, it gave Buddhism a chance!
This was a long-term plan, it had been implemented for many years, and it would definitely continue, it was a part of the spread of Buddhism. But with the changes in Dao, this process might have to be sped up!
This was the reason why the Lion's Roar Assembly, which was originally held once every few hundred years, was now held once every few decades.
