I am Xiao Sheng

Chapter 1438 The Road to Pangu
Chapter 1418 The Road of Pangu

After everyone else had expressed their opinions, the God of Karma could only nod and say, "Fellow Daoists, please rest assured, I agree as well. I will also do my best to rescue other fellow Daoists. As long as it doesn't endanger our own safety, this is not a big deal. I am also aware of the terror and danger of the Boundless Calamity. Just look at Xiao Sheng and the King of Darkness to understand. These two dared to attack Fellow Daoist Shichen. What else wouldn't they dare to do? If they are like this, you can imagine what the other Chaos Gods and Demons are like. And those guys that we can't even see through, we naturally need to be wary of them!"

"This is the immeasurable calamity. Under this great calamity, all living beings will face a life-or-death crisis. No living being is an exception. The fact that Xiao Sheng and the King of Darkness dared to make a move proves that they have the confidence and the strength to do so. Using the Dao Competition as bait, they will wipe out all their competitors in one fell swoop. This is a very clever scheme. Do you think that guy Shi Chen still has a chance to break free from the trap? When he was drawn into it, his fate was already sealed. I felt the end of his destiny in him!" As he spoke, the God of Destiny sighed, a faint unease in his eyes.

Even Shi Chen, the God of Time, fell into the scheme of Xiao Sheng and the King of Darkness. Moreover, these two have clearly mastered the power to destroy the origin of Chaos Gods and Demons in a short time, which will pose an unimaginable threat to them. After all, as Chaos Gods and Demons, they naturally know how difficult it is for the origin of Chaos Gods and Demons to be erased. However, Shi Chen's origin is dissipating wildly.

"Could Yang Mei have also been ambushed by them? Xiao Sheng and the Dark King were able to plunder Fellow Daoist Shichen's Time Dao Origin in such a short time, so plundering Fellow Daoist Yang Mei's Space Dao Origin wouldn't be difficult for them either!" Suddenly, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou uttered these words. Upon hearing them, everyone sighed. They had also thought of this, but none of them dared to act rashly. After all, this was an immeasurable calamity, and the slightest carelessness could burden them with boundless karma and subject them to unimaginable backlash. After all, the immeasurable calamity was a reckoning of karma, and no one wanted to bear more karmic burdens at this time, bringing terrible disasters to their survival!

"It's not impossible, but unfortunately we can't do it. After all, in the face of the great power of heaven and earth, we are just ants. Look at the performance of the Chaos Dao and then look at Fellow Daoist Pangu. Our power is nothing at all. If we had made the same choice as Pangu back then, perhaps things would not be like this now."

The God of Cause and Effect makes a lot of sense, but is it possible to reach the level of Pangu? Even the God of Destiny doesn't have that kind of confidence. After all, Pangu proved his Dao through force, while these people are far behind. Under such circumstances, how can they compare to him? So it's best not to have such foolish ideas!

"Actually, we are not without a chance now. If we go to see Fellow Daoist Pangu and ask him a few questions, we might gain some insights. However, our time is running out. We are not Fellow Daoist Pangu; we don't have that much source energy to waste. Everyone should stop having such ridiculous thoughts. Now, it's best for everyone to part ways as soon as possible and accumulate their own source energy. Otherwise, when the time is up, continuing to wait will only lead to death for all of you." Hongjun Daozu spoke dismissively. His heart had calmed down. After all, if he wasn't strong enough, no matter how much he schemed, it would be useless. Strength was the foundation of everything; only a powerful god could allow him to advance further!
When one cultivates to the level of Hongjun Daozu, the God of Destiny, the God of Karma, and the Demon Ancestor Luo, even the best external forces can hardly help them. Moreover, for beings like them, the slightest mistake will cost them their lives, leaving them with a fate of physical death and soul dissipation. This is the terror of immeasurable eons!
"Go see Pangu? You want to die, but I don't. The three of you have cooperated with Pangu, so perhaps Pangu won't target you, but I'm not so sure about you. I don't want to risk my life. Pangu isn't the Chaos Dao. I don't know what transformations he's undergone over the years. I always feel that there's something wrong with Pangu. He's not as simple as he seems!" Demon Ancestor Luo Hou rejected Hongjun Daozu's suggestion without even thinking.

"Fellow Daoist Luo Hou, you're overthinking it. Although we cooperate with Fellow Daoist Pangu, he won't treat us differently. After all, this is an immeasurable calamity. Aren't you being a bit too anxious about Fellow Daoist Pangu attacking you? Although this is an immeasurable calamity, Fellow Daoist Pangu seeks transcendence, not to target us!" Dao Ancestor Hongjun said dismissively. He still had great confidence in Pangu and didn't believe that Pangu would attack them, the Chaos Gods and Demons.

“Hongjun, this is how you see me, but I don’t think that way. As long as there is even the slightest possibility, I will not risk my life. After all, I am on the path of destruction. It is hard to say whether Pangu can tolerate me. I don’t want to end up as a life god or demon!” No matter how Hongjun Daozu explained, Demon Ancestor Luohou still insisted on his own ideas. For these chaotic gods and demons, they would not easily believe others.

Just then, the God of Destiny spoke up: "Fellow Daoist Luo Hou, did you discover something from Fellow Daoist Pangu? If so, could you please enlighten us? I'd like to know as well. Even if we have no ill intentions, it's always good to be prepared, since no one knows what might happen during the great calamity!"

"Fellow Daoist Destiny, to say it's guidance is a bit of an exaggeration. I can only offer my own perspective, and whether you believe it or not is beyond my control. I don't want to discuss the origin of the Three Corpses Technique, but Pangu's situation is highly unusual. Take his obsessions, for example. Do you really think Pangu was completely unaffected by his obsessions? He transformed his obsessions into the Great Ease, severing his control over the Primordial World. Do you think that would be without problems? He was the one who had always held the essence of the Primordial World. And you haven't forgotten the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Three Pure Ones who severed their essences; they went far away into Chaos!"

"Fellow Daoist Luo Hou, please speak your mind. Don't keep it a secret. I also want to understand all this, but my understanding of Fellow Daoist Pangu is truly limited. Perhaps this is a case of being too close to the situation to see clearly. After all, I once merged with the Primordial World, becoming part of the Primordial Heavenly Dao. Even Fellow Daoist Yin and Yang and Hongjun Dao are in the same boat. We all have this problem, unable to see clearly what is related to Fellow Daoist Pangu! Perhaps this is the price we must pay; we must give as much as we gain!" The God of Destiny sighed deeply, a faint sorrow in his eyes, as if he were truly affected. The Demon Ancestor Luo Hou did not criticize the God of Destiny's words, but smiled calmly and said, "Very well, since you've spoken to this extent, I will no longer conceal anything. I have a bold guess: Fellow Daoist Pangu may be walking a completely different path from what we previously thought. If we consider the Taiyi that Pangu's obsession transformed into as his future self, and the origins severed by the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Three Pure Ones as his past self, what state do you think Pangu is in now?"

"Past, future, present, you mean Pangu is going to take this crazy path, but it's a path no one has ever taken before. Even that guy Shichen didn't dare to take it. As the god of time, he thought it was a dead end. So how could Pangu dare to take this path? Could it be that he really is hiding many secrets from us?" At this moment, Hongjun Daozu frowned. This situation made him somewhat uneasy. After all, that was Pangu, and the words of the Demon Ancestor Luohou were indeed somewhat plausible!

"Although Pangu is our fellow Daoist and has cooperated with us, is there really any trust between us? Fellow Daoist Hongjun, do you think there were no secrets between the three of us and Fellow Daoist Pangu back then? If Pangu really didn't hide anything from us, how did Taiyi come about? How did the Primordial Great Dao come about? Perhaps Pangu is more terrifying than we imagine. In those endless years, he has already comprehended our Great Dao, and even comprehended the Great Dao of the World. Originally, we thought he was going to walk the path of the Chaos Great Dao, but now it seems that he has embarked on this most insane and dangerous path."

"Why? Pangu has no reason to take this crazy path. It's a gamble with his life; the slightest mistake could mean certain death. I can't understand it. Even if Pangu was crazy, he wouldn't have chosen this path!" Hongjun Daozu still couldn't accept it. After all, if there had been even the slightest mishap on this path, Pangu wouldn't be here now; he would have been completely destroyed along with the primordial world!
At this moment, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou smiled calmly and said, "It's precisely because we all thought it was impossible that he chose this path. None of us expected it, so do you think the Chaos Dao could? He's not guarding against us, but against the Chaos Dao itself. He wants to fight the Chaos Dao. After all, we all firmly considered the Chaos Dao our greatest enemy and the biggest obstacle to our path. Why would he hide it from us? It's even simpler. On one hand, this is his own path of cultivation; how could he easily tell others? If we secretly target him, it might be a dead end. Especially for the three of you..." "If he were to reveal his secrets to you, would you still have a chance to survive? Would you still be able to escape the River of Time? On the other hand, it's even simpler. Fellow Daoist Karma, you think you've hidden it very well, deceiving Fellow Daoist Destiny and Dao Ancestor Hongjun. But you certainly haven't deceived Fellow Daoist Pangu. He definitely discovered your deal with the Chaos Dao immediately, but he hasn't exposed it all. Instead, he's allowed you to develop it. He might even have gained more insights by using the Chaos Dao aura on you; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to navigate this path so quickly!"

At this point, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou sighed softly, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes. He was utterly astonished that Pangu could accomplish all this silently and without the knowledge of Ju Ganren. If it weren't for the appearance of the Chaos Dao and its words, if it weren't for Yang Mei's death and Xiao Sheng and the Dark King's attack on Shi Chen, he probably wouldn't have witnessed all of this.

"Fellow Daoist Luo Hou, what you say is indeed reasonable, but there's still one thing I don't understand. If Taiyi is Pangu's future incarnation, isn't that a bit far-fetched? You must know that it was formed from his obsession, how could it become his future incarnation? Also, you said he severed his past body, even if the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Three Pure Ones returned their Pangu origins, it's still far from enough. After all, Pangu himself evolved the primordial world!" The God of Karma looked at the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou with doubt, wanting to hear his explanation!

"Fellow Daoist Karma, have you gone astray on your path of karma? How come you can't even see through this? I've already made myself perfectly clear. With your wisdom, you shouldn't be unable to see through all this, right? Could it be that you've been corrupted by the tribulation of heaven and earth, and your mind has been clouded? If so, fellow Daoist, you must be careful!" Demon Ancestor Luo Hou said, cautiously guarding against the God and Demon of Karma, fearing that he might be ambushed by this guy at any moment!

Seeing the Demon Ancestor Rahu's targeting, the God of Destiny spoke up: "Fellow Daoist Rahu, don't joke around. If Fellow Daoist Karma's mind is clouded and eroded by the calamity energy of heaven and earth, we will all sense it. Not to mention that Fellow Daoist Karma didn't understand, I haven't figured out the reason behind this either. Please enlighten me!"

"I wouldn't presume to offer guidance; this is merely my speculation, without any evidence. After all, that's Pangu. The future body is easily explained. Pangu's obsession was protecting the primordial world and undergoing transformation and evolution, and he has achieved both. What else could this be but a future body? Although his strength is somewhat weak, what we see is only what he wants us to see. As for the past body, I believe Fellow Daoist Pangu has already gathered everything. After all, not many of the primordial gods are still alive. And do you think Pangu, over countless years, has managed to collect the essence of his past body through Buzhou Mountain? Furthermore, I think the reactions of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Three Pure Ones might have been influenced by him! If we remember correctly, the Three Pure Ones even abandoned the Three Treasures of Creation!"

"I understand now. He has Pangu's essence blood, Pangu's primordial spirit, and the three treasures of creation. If he has already collected all the scattered origins, his entry into the chaos is an attempt to deceive us and keep us unaware of his actions. He wants to reunite his past self, complete the cultivation path of the past, future, and present, and thoroughly traverse this insane path of cultivation!"
