Wandao long distance

Chapter 999 Hope of the Universe

Li Qi's plan finally surfaced.

This war to exterminate demons is only a means, not an end.

All the opening of the hall and the help of the great Bodhisattvas are for this moment.

  What is Li Qi’s purpose?

He just said that he hopes to create a world where the devil cannot interfere, and that he hopes to free all living beings from the control of the devil. From now on, all those who practice Taoism will have no "enemies of Taoism".

To accomplish this, one needs the ultimate weapon for fighting against demons, the former 'Formless Realm'.

  The demons were destroyed to eliminate Li Qi's interference. The karma of these actions belonged to the demon prince. What about their true spirits? Where did they go?

Of course, it was done quietly, and all were taken over by the Demon Prince.

The Demon Prince used these destructions to forge another thing, which was... the Formless Realm that the Buddha finally gave him.

The formless realm is 'nothing', which is the complete opposite of the Paranirmita-vasavartin heaven.

Therefore, when all the extinction and nothingness are included, the formless realm is also slowly recovering.

With the help of the 'nothingness' brought about by multiple second-grade battles, a part of the power of the formless realm was finally restored.

The devil and the Buddha, who were enemies, created the Paranirmita-vasavartin heaven and the formless heaven respectively.

Now, the Heaven of Transformation is in the hands of Wuxian, and the Heaven of Formlessness was handed over to the Demon Prince before the last Buddha passed away.

The Demon Prince...received the same treatment as Shariputra.

After Sariputra passed away, the Buddha declared that in the distant future he would become Huaguang Tathagata.

The Demon Prince is the future Pratyekabuddha.

All this seems to be foreshadowing something.

But no matter what happened afterwards, at this moment, the Demon Prince had already appeared. He was as powerful as ever, and was even prepared to forcibly contain the Karma Demon within himself.

Of course, the Karma Demon would not sit still and wait for death. In fact, the Demonic Path also responded at this moment.

Almost immediately, more than three second-grade magicians appeared.

They are the Bodhi Dharma Wisdom Demon, the Five Dust Demon, and the Good Root Demon.

Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, no one from the first rank took action.

That's safe.

Then, above the sky, the golden monkey swung his stick.

When the stick fell, all demons retreated and the dark clouds disappeared. In an instant, the creation and destiny of millions of years and billions of people became clear, just like a mirror showing beauty and ugliness.

The seven spirits turned, the five colors lingered, the buildings were layered, the three gases became smoke, from light to light, it was really like a full moon, it encompassed the body of a hundred bones, and all the images were visible, there was a flying dragon in the sky, the vast ocean was covered with darkness, and the benevolent wind and thunder did not stop.

The Golden Monkey was not as anxious or scheming as Li Qi and his men.

Because there is no need. All the changes and calculations are nothing to him except a display of Dharma and a wave of the golden stick.

Beat all the changes into 'chaos', just as he himself was a spirit stone born from chaos.

Just one question…

  Was today's golden monkey born from chaos?

But this question certainly cannot be answered at this moment.

The demons were beaten back by the stick and were about to attack again, but they saw the two brothers of the Zhu family were already in position.

The long zither played its strings while Feng Dan laughed wildly and made hand gestures to seal off the surroundings.

The Karma Demon is struggling hard in the Demon Prince's inner world.

Several other demons looked over here.

The golden monkey is on guard, several great Bodhisattvas are providing support, and the power of Li Qi, Zhu Fengdan, and Chang Qin is surrounding them.

As we all know, the magicians are not united, especially the high-level ones, they are almost all self-centered.

Their cooperation is completely based on the cognition of "self", so when cooperation can bring benefits, they will cooperate, and when cooperation cannot bring benefits, they will withdraw decisively.

Don't expect the devil to invest too much emotion in anything other than himself.

But by the same token, the demons know very well when to join forces to gain the greatest benefit, and they can often assume the role of an 'absolutely rational person'.

Therefore, these second-grade demons decisively joined forces.

We can't delay. If we continue to delay, the risks will be too great.

When the Demon Prince broke through to the second level, the battle situation was irreversible.

We must do it now.

The battle expanded.

It was just a prison before, but now the whole universe is a battlefield.

There were already double-digit second-rank warriors participating in the battle, which was definitely a grand scene even in the battle between humans and witches.

The entire universe has been affected, all time, all space, almost no place can escape.

Apart from the world, only the world remains safe and sound.

Those second-tier civilizations, and even first-tier civilizations, were also affected to a certain extent, so much so that their powerful people had to extend their hands to prevent too much aftermath from coming.

At the same time, those worlds without shelter are in crisis.

Danger and opportunity appear at the same time.

The universe...has changed.

----------

How long did the battle last?

Actually, it’s not very clear.

On the battlefield called universe, there is a thick layer of corpses.

Mu Yu was also part of the war, but his battle was over, so he just watched the second-rank fight continue.

He stared at the broken corpses strewn all over the field...

In fact, there were no corpses. What he saw was an endless, destroyed future.

Those possibilities are the corpses themselves. These are not the corpses of a certain creature, but the death of the entire universe. The possibilities of the universe are being wiped out.

Looking at the possibility of being wiped out in the universe, Mu Yu felt genuine sorrow.

Possibility is the most precious wealth.

Why are children lovable?

Because children have unlimited possibilities, compared to adults whose lives are already fixed and have no extra possibilities in the future, young children with unlimited possibilities are obviously more valuable.

And now, there are countless "endings" floating in the universe. These are the possibilities of being ended. In these timelines, the universe itself has also lost the possibility of moving into the future.

Therefore, these branches will be destroyed and turned into endless 'corpses'.

"Do you want to watch more?" At this time, another Qidian 3rd rank voice came from the side. Mu Yu lowered his head: "I thought we were the main force, but I didn't expect that we were just bait, and I didn't expect that this war would be so cruel..."

He thought that the damage was only to countless civilizations, but he discovered that the losses in the second-level battle were much more terrible than that.

"Don't worry." At this time, the third-rank man suddenly said, "You see, these corpses are not wasted."

Mu Yu followed the other person's line of sight.

He seemed to hear the soft gurgling sound of the universe.

In the dim rays that seemed like dusk, radio signals were still transmitted from the dead cosmic possibilities.

They are those who are trapped in the void cage of the universe, blocked by the endless void and unable to explore the outside world. So they put their hope on their fastest means of communication, hoping to meet kind people who will reply to them.

These radio signals are like the devastated ground after a brutal winter. In this gloomy death, the sound of birds chirping like silver bells can be heard.

As Mu Yu stood there staring at this horrific scene of destruction of life, the severe winter in his heart retreated with the melodious sound of birdsong.

What lingered in Mu Yu's ears was the loud cry of the birth of new life, which came along with new possibilities.

In the dark space, how do the birds feel when facing the darkness? How do they sing to the empty space?

The possibility of their location has been wiped out, distance and the speed of light have pinched their throats, and they will never have the possibility of breaking through. This is their fate.

But in the night sky, there is such hesitant but clear bird song, which makes people's hearts beat and even tremble.

While the earth was still frozen, a small sound like a silver bell quickly crossed the sky.

Mu Yu smiled with relief.

We cannot choose the world, we have almost nothing to choose. In this universe, the most precious thing is the power to choose, so Mu Yu can only watch the bloody and terrifying footsteps move forward in this severe winter.

But even if one is of the second rank, he cannot stop the birds from singing, cannot silence the birds, and cannot stop the singing of higher wisdom.

Mu Yu made up his mind that he could not let these creative and beautiful worlds stop, because they had already come to Mu Yu in an unstoppable way.

Whether you like it or not, it will be a new world.

There was once a story.

A boy dug his blind eyes hard with his fingers, and when his eyes felt pain, he saw a shooting star.

The adults did not believe that blind eyes could see blood-red meteors, but what the boy said was absolutely true and there was no doubt about it.

Just like what Mu Yu saw at this moment.

Mu Yu set off immediately.

He had previously felt some resentment towards Li Qi, complaining that the other party's war had destroyed countless possibilities and that he was just a pawn.

But he understands now.

These are what Li Qi demands, what Li Qi wants to pursue, and what Li Qi wants to protect.

The path of evil is the ultimate denial, denying everything except oneself.

Only the self is real, everything else is false.

Under the denial of the devil, it was like a storm falling from the sky, it entangled us, like a parasite drilling into the brain and driving people crazy, everything was torn into blood and red, and immersed in darkness.

But it has never been our true innermost self. Deep in our hearts, we have always been far away from it. We have always been this clear bird song, first quiet, then rising, and now gushing out like a mountain spring.

Therefore, Li Qi wanted to acknowledge all things, and he paid a huge price for this. To acknowledge all things, he had to accept them. Li Qi's reconstruction came from this reason.

At this time, we have to recall the other two gods.

Haotian and Taiyi.

Mu Yu thought about this and then flew over those civilizations.

He tried his best to ensure that they could all survive, leaving behind the extreme pain and countless corpses, and never let death take them away!

---------

Many years later.

The war is over.

The power of the Karma Demon dissipated, and the Demonic Path finally chose to retreat, because there would be problems if they continued fighting.

The killing power of the golden monkey is indeed enormous, and several demons are unable to withstand it head-on. In addition, they have lost the karma demon, while the Demon Prince has the upper hand. When the time comes, he will be able to use the formless realm and the karma demon's body as the foundation of his Taoism and ascend to the second level.

At the moment when the Demon Prince finally succeeded, the Demons chose to retreat.

And there is a new second-grade master in the universe, the Demon Prince Shang Fan.

The war is over.

The second-rank officials left one by one, and after Li Qi met with the Demon Prince, he didn't say much. Both sides left because they still had things to do.

After Li Qi left, he came to Mu Yu.

Because he just saw that this fat young man was running around in the universe, secretly "guarding" those young civilizations one after another.

He was removing danger from their future, gently adjusting their history so that they could survive in peace for a little longer.

This is a very dangerous thing. If we are not careful, their history will be completely changed and then protection will turn into killing.

"Okay, take a break." Li Qi appeared in front of the other person and patted him on the shoulder.

Mu Yu stopped, bowed to Li Qi, and then said, "Senior... did you win?"

"Can you still see me after you lose?" Li Qi said with a smile.

"Yes, that's true...thank you very much, senior." Mu Yu said.

"What are you thanking me for? I should thank you. These are all extra things." Li Qi looked at the "possibilities" around him and said so.

"There is no such thing as what is within and what is not in this world. Some things can be done and some cannot be done. What we are doing now is what we can and should do." Mu Yu replied.

"Moreover, you deserve this thanks, Senior. You are so thoughtful, I am not as good as you."

"Let's stop saying these flattering words. Qi Dian suffered heavy losses this time, but it is not convenient for me to show up. Some of them must be very resentful towards me now. The follow-up will have to be left to you. They don't understand what happened." Li Qi smiled and said so.

The second and third graders were acting as riddlers, there was really no way out for them, they couldn't even describe the specific appearance of the battle from the outside.

Even if I tell them, they won't understand and won't be able to comprehend it at all.

If you force them to understand, and directly brain-cram the information about their experiences, they will die.

In that endless world and the infinite possibilities, the war is so grand that mortals simply cannot comprehend the complex situation. Each node will bring more changes, and each change will trigger a large number of butterfly effects. The infinite division of multiple time and space is simply beyond the ability of mortals to bear.

Either you don’t understand it, or if you understand it you will die.

"It should be so." Mu Yu nodded and accepted the task.

Li Qi didn't say much either.

This war was planned, arranged and executed by him from beginning to end, so he was exhausted at the moment and prepared to pack up and go home to rest.

No matter what, for Li Qi, home is always a place where he can put his thoughts aside.
