Chapter 662: Practice More
"Say it." Wen Guying said.

"Well, the things that the root consciousness left me are many, very complicated, extremely huge, and chaotic. To fully understand them, I probably need to stay in the blood pool for a long time, and I may still not be able to figure it out." Li Chuan narrated slowly: "So I asked myself what I wanted to do and what I was doing. Suddenly I became confused, but...but Chi Lin escaped. Chi Lin, who had been sleeping in Youxi Valley for 30,000 years, escaped. He also has a clone. It is estimated that the demon spirits are still causing trouble in the fairy world. This is a very certain thing. All the chaos is caused by them, so finding them, stopping them, and then catching them or killing them is what I want to do."

"But they are not the starting point. The starting point is that beam of light, which illuminated the dark ancient light countless years ago. And 30,000 years ago, there was another beam of light, and Tian Su led 3,000 immortals to align their own paths with the way of heaven, hiding everything in the world outside of that beam of light. I didn't pay much attention to this sentence before, and I just thought that the great calamity of gods and demons has ended, and now it is a new calamity..." Li Chuan paused and said, "But what if it hasn't ended? That is to say, what if that beam of light is still there, and we are still hidden outside of that beam of light?"

"Tiansu has fallen, but the light remains."

"How long can we hide?"

Li Chuan turned his head and looked out the window. The sky was blue. "If that's the case, it's easy to guess what Chi Lin wants to do. Or, we don't have to guess at all."

Wen Gu Ying said: "He wants this world to no longer be hidden outside of that beam of light."

"That's right." Li Chuan nodded and said, "So I thought of what Yun Yixian said about the current situation in the immortal world - constantly incorporating the paths of others into one's own path to broaden the path. Then in the end, there must be someone who accommodates the most paths and becomes the person closest to the Way of Heaven. And then, he will definitely replace the Way of Heaven with his own path, and at that moment... that beam of light will return."

"Are you talking about Weng Xian?" Jiang Mei asked. He shook his head and said, "Weng Xian is the fifth immortal to achieve the status of a true immortal. When he ascended to immortality, there were still tens of thousands of years before the great catastrophe of gods and demons."

Wen Guying has a different view. He said: "During the great catastrophe of gods and demons, Weng Xian chose the demons. He helped the demons build eleven demon palaces on the spirit veins and set up a stone platform in the Taisu domain to open the ferry. Afterwards, the gods and demons were destroyed, and many demon palaces were destroyed, but Weng Xian seemed to still continue his agreement with the demons."

“As for the changes in the fairyland that Immortal Yun Yi mentioned, they should have occurred after the great catastrophe of gods and demons ended, when the Xuanmen gradually recovered its vitality and new cultivators continued to ascend. So…” Wen Guying thought for a moment, then said, “But Chi Lin’s clone was able to go to the fairyland. This must have been done by Immortal Weng.”

"I think there is something wrong with Taisuyu." Li Chuan said.

"What's the problem?" Wen Guying asked.

"I think it's like a garbage dump, a mess. Tiansu should feel the same way." Li Chuan said. He looked at Wen Guying and Jiang Mei's expressions and continued, "That is to say, could it be that Weng Xian went to contact the demons because something went wrong in Taisu Domain?"

"After Tian Su united the Dao with the Heavenly Dao, Weng Xian came into contact with the two races of gods and demons who were stranded here. Well, according to my previous thoughts, the two races of gods and demons must be unwilling to give up, and they must want to find the beam of light back, so..." Li Chuan continued his guess, "Tian Su's actions, or that beam of light, or some power displayed by the two races, made Weng Xian see a possibility, a possibility to solve the problem of Tai Su Domain, or the possibility of his own cultivation, so he came into contact with the demon race..."

"The agreement between him and the demons was that if the eleven demon palaces were built, the light would return. He did not foresee what happened later. The gods and demons who stayed here completely lost. But his problem... Afterwards, Chi Lin ascended to become an immortal, and they hit it off, which gradually influenced the cultivation atmosphere in the immortal world..."

Wen Guying understood what Li Chuan meant, and asked, "Do you think that Immortal Weng did not intervene in Chi Lin's ascension?" "The Immortal Jiufeng made the world forget many things during the catastrophe of gods and demons, but the immortals were not affected by this." Li Chuan paused and said, "Master Wen, the sacrifice of Tiansu and the three thousand immortals, the endurance of the Immortal Jiufeng and the Xuanmen monks, allowed the world to spend more than 30,000 years in peace. And can Immortal Weng's actions really be hidden from all the immortals?"

"So you think that after the great catastrophe of gods and demons, Immortal Weng endured all the criticisms and no longer took the initiative to attack?" Wen Guying asked.

"I think he has retreated because it is too simple and there is a problem, and this problem has not been solved yet," said Li Chuan.

"It is meaningless to speculate the behavior of immortals, especially true immortals, with the knowledge of mortals." Wen Guying said, "Your speculation is based on the situation that all immortals are against the beam of light falling. But this is not necessarily the case. For some beings, the beam of light may be an opportunity."

Wen Guying continued calmly, "If the first beam of light had not fallen, perhaps the entire world would still be dark and silent, with no life appearing."

"Whether it's Immortal Weng who takes the initiative to extradite Chi Lin to ascend, or Chi Lin reaches the upper realm through other means, it doesn't make much difference to the current situation." Jiang Mei said.

"Let me finish." Li Chuan said.

"Please." Wen Guying said.

Li Chuan said: "After Chi Lin arrived in the upper realm, the cultivation in the immortal world changed. And in the end, there will be a person who reaches the level of replacing the way of heaven with the way of Tao."

"Then, that beam of light will fall again," said Li Chuan.

"So, Chi Lin's second and third clones, no matter what they want to do, what they are doing, how they plan to do it... they are all preparing for that beam of light. Songdu, Shuangyemen, Qiufeng Village, Xialin Village... are all to welcome that beam of light. So..." Li Chuan licked his lips and said, "As long as that beam of light can't fall, this place will be an eternal prison for Chi Lin and the demon spirit. No matter how they struggle, they will gradually wear out and eventually dissipate."

"Who beat the immortal Weng?" Wen Guying asked.

"This..." Li Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you practice more?"

"I can't do it, unless you give me 30,000 years, then I will try." Wen Guying said modestly, and then he said: "We can't control the affairs of the fairy world. The affairs of the mortal world are our responsibility. What you said makes me know how to deal with Chi Lin."
