Lou Xiaoyi had always been biased against the changing trends of the epochs.
He had always believed that it was appropriate to divide the period before the change of era into three periods.
Before the twelve Great Daos collapsed, it was the early stage. Only cultivators from the mortal world could participate.
Before the 24 Great Daos collapsed, they were in the middle stage. There were Half Immortal freaks who came down to the lower realm. In the middle and later stages, there might be true Half Immortals who came down.
Before all thirty-six Great Daos collapsed, it was the era of Immortals. The role of Half Immortals like them would be very limited. He was also worried about how the outstanding Half Immortals would coexist with the Immortals during this era.
In the field of martial arts, he would most likely not be able to beat them; in the field of literature, he could only become a pawn of the Immortals of the lower realm!
However, after hearing Immortal Elder Wu Hua's words, he suddenly realized that even in the later stages before the epoch change, immortals might not be able to descend!
Because they were like clay bodhisattvas crossing a river, unable to even protect themselves!
The collapse of the Great Dao could destroy existences like Golden Immortals and Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals. There was no reason why it could not destroy existences like Human Immortals and True Immortals! It was all the same. With the rebuilding of the Great Dao, the Immortal Court would definitely be rebuilt as well. The crux of the problem was, how many newcomers would climb up during this rebuilding process? How many old immortals had changed their appearances?
Based on this inference, the conflict between Buddhism and Daoism, as well as the conflict between heterodox schools, was not the most important thing!
Most importantly, the battle between the new forces and the old forces was the focal point of the change of eras!
If you want to achieve something, at the very least, you have to know the general trend. Otherwise, you will be like a headless fly, unable to use your strength properly.
Immortals could not descend, because not a single one of them could survive until the end of the epoch! From now on, or perhaps from a few hundred years ago, the Immortal Court had become an extra-large graveyard!
Immortals continued to fall from the sky. It might have been slower at the beginning, but it would become faster and faster as more and more Great Daos collapsed. Meanwhile, those Postcelestial Great Daos that were formed from the combination of Precelestial Great Daos would not be able to hold on any longer. With their Dao foundation damaged, they would no longer have a reason to become an immortal. Who would collapse if not you?
The one that could last until the end would definitely be the last Connate Great Dao and the Postnatal Great Dao that was related to it. It could be Time, or it could be Unification. It was hard to say.
Under such a procedure, the immortals were all in danger. They didn't even have time to make arrangements for their funerals, so how could they have the mood to come down to the lower realm and get involved in the right and wrong? To them, the most important thing was to find a new bottle to keep their old wine in after the change of era. Other than that, nothing else mattered!
From this, it could be inferred that the first stage of the universe's changes had already passed, which was the stage of the cultivators of the Origin World.
The middle stage should be dominated by monstrous Half Immortal geniuses like them, and the late stage should be the stage for all Half Immortals!
When would the immortals appear? It should be after the change of the era! Let's call it the post-epoch era! At this time, many new and old immortals officially appeared. They had ascended to immortality and joined the Dao at the moment the epoch changed. There was no longer the danger of their Dao collapsing. Thus, they began to form factions and fight for territory and the right to speak. This was the normal rhythm.
Only when he understood this point did he know what he should and shouldn't do now! In other words, he could have acted even more arrogantly! He could have roped in more forces and friends, and strive to become the spokesperson of the emerging forces in the post-epoch era!
What the Crow Ancestor wanted to do, others didn't even dare to think about, and those rebellious thoughts could only be achieved in this way!
For the first time, Lou Xiaoyi had a plan for his future! This was his strength!
To achieve this, it was impossible to rely on brute force alone. The Crow Ancestor's fist was strong enough, but what was the result?
He had to find a common point of interest! These people, these Half Immortals, these future rulers of the Immortal Court, couldn't stand on his side just because of a friendship. He had to make them feel that there were benefits to be gained, and that there was a future to look forward to!
Lou Xiaoyi floated in the void of the mirror, silently reflecting. This Heavenly Eyes mission was very meaningful to him!
From now on, he had a clear enough plan. For his own cultivation, he also had countless reference templates for the construction of his future Superego. It was no longer as vague and muddle-headed as before.
On the way back, there was one more thing he needed to observe, and that was the fragments of the Great Path in his Mud-pill Palace. He wanted to try and see if he could find the traces left by the Golden Immortals on them. This possibility was not big, because he had been with each fragment for at least hundreds of years, and he was very familiar with them. If there were any abnormalities, he should have found them long ago, and not wait until now!
Sure enough, no matter what special method he used, he couldn't find any abnormalities. This didn't mean that there were no traces of the Golden Immortals on these fragments of the Great Path. In his opinion, there were only two possibilities. Either the Golden Immortals didn't feel suitable, so they didn't show up and stayed undercover until the end of time, or the Golden Immortals didn't feel suitable, so the traces disappeared automatically, as if they had never existed.
There was a limit to the traces of the Golden Immortals' consciousness, and it was impossible to maintain countless branches forever. When the fragments were captured by nature, they would naturally disappear, or for those cultivators who had no hope of becoming immortals.
He didn't find them, and he couldn't judge whether they existed or not. He would just leave them as they were. Of course, he wouldn't give them up because of some hidden danger. As long as he didn't integrate the fragments of the Great Path, these things would never be able to take over his body in the Tao State!
Moreover, he always felt that it might not be a bad thing to keep such a possible bridge of communication with the Golden Immortals' consciousness.
Cultivation was carried out in the constant correction of deviations!
He was alone, because in this process, no one had the ability to give him advice and guide him. There shouldn't be such a person. This was the uniqueness of the Immortals. They were a species that couldn't be bought wholesale. Only if you were special enough, the Heavenly Axiom might reward you with a mouthful of Immortal food!
He was also lucky, because in his experience, there were always some processes that benefited him a lot. For example, the understanding of the past in the Odd Righteous Pure Land, and the insight of the future in the Wall of Mirrors.
One thing touched him. The Odd Righteous Pure Land was sent to him by the Exterior Immortal Monarch, and he didn't even know the name. The matter of Immortal Wu Hua was a task assigned by Lord Lingbao. These two adventures were directly related to the Immortals. What did it mean?
Obviously, the Immortals in the Immortal Court had already started to set up a trap in the Mortal World! He was just one of them! There were many Immortals in the Immortal Court, and they all had their own affinity. Lou Xiaoyi had such an opportunity, and the other half-immortals weren't far off!
Then, were the Exterior Immortal Monarch and Lord Lingbao in the same group?
If not, it was pardonable that Lord Linglong supported him, but it was a little strange that the Exterior Immortal Monarch helped him. It didn't seem to match at all!
It was said that the Crow Ancestor didn't do anything good when he was in the Exterior realm! He, Lou Xiaoyi, was the same!
