He had no interest in answering these endless questions!
You want to know? Can't you go and find out yourself? He couldn't be bothered with these people!
Thus, he increased his speed and gradually moved further and further away from the encirclement. Fortunately, these people did not have any organization structure and were purely a bunch of stragglers, each doing their own thing. How could they stop a swordsman with such speed?
He plunged into the deep space of the universe and disappeared without a trace!
Several years later, in a certain space region several universes away from Zhou Xian, a great battle between humans and insects was underway!
This wasn't rare in the history of cultivation in the universe. Many powerful domains and orthodoxies were very happy to do this! But what was different this time was that the humans were all Buddhist monks in a uniform formation!
Due to the fact that the space region was relatively remote, this was obviously the first time that the humans had taken the initiative to attack! It was relatively rare for Buddhists to launch such a long-distance attack, and it was even such a large-scale initiative.
The situation was almost one-sided due to the asymmetry in strength between both sides. The monks had the absolute initiative, and although this insect swarm could be considered a large insect swarm, it was still slightly inferior to one of the five super-large insect swarms that had attacked the Fifth Ring. Under the attacks of the Heaven's Choice Buddhists, they were defeated!
However, the Buddhists' attacks weren't smooth either. This was because many of the Buddhists' techniques weren't suitable for the insect swarm, especially those profound Buddhist secret techniques. Against insects that didn't talk about the afterlife and the past, it was like playing the lute to a cow!
The insects were only good at bloody battles in the present world. Relatively speaking, the more superficial body techniques of the Buddhists were more effective against them. The battle wasn't very satisfactory. It wasn't as easy as expected and only relied on its size to gain the upper hand!
In the battle against the insect swarm, they actually relied on their numbers to overwhelm the other party. This was a humiliation to the humans!
It was also a rare training opportunity!
The Heaven's Choice Buddhists learned from the battle. This was also their preparation for the future.
At the same time, the Heaven's Choice Sect was holding a party in the space outside Zhou Xian!
This was a grand and enthusiastic event for cultivators. After many years of communication and bargaining, both sides finally got a satisfactory result.
Only after going through battle and acknowledging each other's strength would there be true peace!
Trauma would eventually pass! The living had to look forward. In the battle of Dao, no one would keep the so-called hatred in their mouths. They could only help each other move forward with one hand, while the other hand did not forget to use the weapons.
I hate to forget! Only then would he be able to walk further!
Even if he hated it, he couldn't forget it. Only then would he not lose his vigilance!
But at least for now, the two sides were happily meeting in the space outside Zhou Xian! It was as if they were old friends who had not seen each other for many years.
Among the many powerful cultivators, a small Yin Master was particularly eye-catching!
It was a graceful, elegant, and handsome young man. At first glance, one could tell that he was the most standard member of the Daoist School. His actions and speech revealed the profound and pure spirit of the Daoist School!
The way he interacted with others, his understanding of the Dao, and the macroscopic universe all made one sigh with emotion, as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.
This was Qing Xuan. When faced with the choice of path, he and Lou Xiaoyi chose a completely different direction.
It was hard to say who was better and who was worse.
Only Ka Wah led Little Meow and stood alone in the depths of the crowd. They were oblivious to the commotion around them.
Little Meow nibbled on the celestial fruit from Heaven's Choice and asked curiously, "The current Senior Apprentice-Brother Qing Xuan, and the one in the past, which one is the real one?"
Ka Wah sighed, "Both are real! It's just that different periods have different thoughts. "
Little Meow understood, "Just like chameleons?"
Ka Wah nodded, "You can understand it that way, for survival!"
Little Meow lowered its head and continued to nibble on its celestial fruit, "I don't like chameleons!"
Ka Wah rubbed its head, "I don't like it either!"
Existence is the hard truth, whether you like it or not!
…
Lou Xiaoyi finally flew out of the sky region where the world of cultivation was densely packed. With Zhou Xian as the core, there were hundreds of big and small sky regions in the surrounding dozens of universes!
The celestial phenomena were also clustered together! There were more worlds of cultivation where the atmosphere of cultivation was strong. On the other hand, it was like a desert of spiritual vigor. Even if you flew for years or decades, you would not see a single place where human cultivators were active.
Here, celestial phenomena of other natures would appear. Those were dangerous, changing, filled with endless traps, and purely natural features. Not only would humans go extinct here, even the void beasts would stay away from such places.
Lou Xiaoyi's attitude towards these celestial phenomena was always to skim over them. When he was in Yuanying, he would spend more time searching for Ziqing, but he rarely went deep into the celestial phenomena to understand the principles of heaven and earth contained in the celestial phenomena.
Now, what he was doing was the opposite. He mainly wanted to understand the changes of the Tao state in the celestial phenomena, how it was formed, how it happened, how it operated, and how it grew and multiplied endlessly in the void! In this process, if he happened to come across it, he would collect some Ziqing.
This was a qualitative change!
Not every celestial phenomenon in the universe was worth studying. With his current realm and vision, he could understand the origins of a small number of celestial phenomena. Most of the other celestial phenomena involved the direction of the Tao state that he was not proficient in. After all, he was only proficient in six of the 36 Innate Great Daos!
The cornerstones of the universe's celestial phenomena were the five grandmas, Taiyi, Taichu, Taishi, Taisu, and Taichi!
Taiyi, only the state of the universe that was boundless and empty.
Taichu, formless and without substance, only Innate Qi, the state of the universe that was more primitive than chaos.
Taishi, formless and not visible to the senses, the state of the primeval universe before the creation of heaven and earth.
Taisu, the state of the universe that was primitive.
Taichi, the state of the universe where Yin and Yang were not separated.
He had not obtained the Taiyi fragment yet, but this did not stop him from understanding the five grandmas in person! What kind of understanding was the most realistic? It was to be in it!
Celestial phenomena were the special products of the five grandmas under the combined power of the universe's changes! It was a special phenomenon of the universe that was formed because of an imbalance in a certain aspect. It was like how you could not see the internal power of the ocean on the calm surface of the sea. Only in the stormy waves could you observe its essence!
Celestial phenomena were actually a window for cultivators to observe the changes in the universe, a way that made it easier for them to discover the rules.
Wen Zhi had said that after the collapse of Taiyi, it would be the other four grandmas! Lou Xiaoyi deeply agreed with his explanation! This was an inevitable law of the universe's development. Even if the epoch changed, it would not change this essence. It was impossible to reverse the order within.
Right now, he was relying on his shallow understanding of the Fifth Grand Elder, as well as all the knowledge about the Tao state that he had collected from the major Taoist sects such as Xiaoyao, Xuanyuan, and Taixuan, as well as his personal experience and immersive exploration. His speed might be very slow, but if he persevered, in a thousand years, what else could he not grasp?
Not to mention that he would have the chance to obtain fragments in the process!
When the five grandmas were done collapsing, his understanding of the five Tao states might have caught up with the rhythm of the collapse of the Great Dao! This was also the reason why he had to drift in the universe and fully come into contact with nature!
The journey of a thousand years was not a hot-headed impulse, but a deep cultivation purpose!
