Xiuxian: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 712 Urgency
"Great calamity of the heavens?"

Xu Yang also frowned when he heard this.

Robbery, rob, rob, another robbery!
Ever since leaving the ranks of the mundane world, Xu Yang found that he always encountered a lot of disasters.

First, there was the calamity of demons that brought disaster to the Taoist world, then there was the great calamity of the Shenwu world, then there was the Yuanshi demon calamity in the Earthly Immortal world, there was the Six Desires demon calamity in the Blue Star world and the Xuanhuang world, and finally there was the dark calamity of Shenzhou in the Taixuan world of the present world, and now there is another great calamity among the heavens.

Does he also have the treatment of a "protagonist", with trouble following him wherever he goes?
Jokes aside, Xu Yang also knows that this has nothing to do with treatment, it’s all about level.

As a mortal, life is only a few decades long and it is unlikely that we will encounter any major disasters.

Immortals and gods are different. They live as long as the heaven and earth and shine as brightly as the sun and the moon. It is inevitable that they will encounter some problems over time, not to mention that they can also dream of the heavens and travel through the universe. It is natural for them to encounter all kinds of troubles.

But this great calamity...

Xu Yang frowned, looking suspicious, and asked Xiang Qionggao: "What is the great catastrophe of the heavens?"

"The Great Tribulation of the Heavens, as the name suggests, is a tribulation of the heavens. Even the world cannot escape it!"

Qiong Gao shook his head and sighed, "When Xuan Huang first fought in the Desire Realm, I was defeated by Mara and left. Since then, I have traveled through the heavens, looking for opportunities to resist Mara's power."

"During this journey, I discovered that although there are many great worlds in the heavens, there are not many Golden Immortals. Most of them are celestial immortals who have reached the pinnacle. A few are just like me and Po Xun, who have the power of Golden Immortals with the bodies of celestial immortals, but they are not true Golden Immortals."

Qiong Gao spoke in a deep voice, his eyes were solemn, he looked at Xu Yang: "In the universe, it is reasonable to say that there are already opportunities to achieve Golden Immortal, but there are not many Golden Immortals in the universe. Even if there are, they are mostly legends and hard to find traces."

"Why?"

"At first I thought that it was difficult to become a Golden Immortal, only one in ten thousand, so it was extinct!"

"But I soon discovered that this inference was untenable. Although it is difficult to become a Golden Immortal, with so many generations and so many years, it is reasonable that there should be a few Golden Immortals. How could they be almost extinct?"

"With this question in mind, I traveled through the heavens, explored various worlds, and finally found some clues!"

Qiong Gao's eyes condensed, and he said in a deep voice: "There are indeed Golden Immortals in the universe, but they have disappeared from the world because they have fled to avoid disaster!"

"Escape from the robbery?"

Xu Yang frowned and asked, "Great calamity of the heavens?"

"Yes, the great calamity of the heavens!"

Qiong Gao nodded, and said solemnly: "Some Golden Immortals left last words, Chaos has a beginning and an end, Twelve Meeting Points make up a calamity, this is the calamity of the heavens, the calamity of all worlds, the calamity of infinity!"

"When this catastrophe comes, chaos will return, engulfing the worlds and turning them into the energy of chaos. The universe will not be spared, and even the immortals, Buddhas, and sacred beings will perish."

“Only the Golden Immortal, an immortal being, can escape the catastrophe. Even after the catastrophe, they can use the great power of the Great Dao to re-open the sky, create another world, and pass on the Dao.”

Qiong Gao sighed and sorted out the situation, saying, "So the origins of the heavens and the earth in the worlds are not the same. Some are born from chaos and evolve naturally. Some are like my Xuan Huang, where there are innate sacred beings like Pan Fan, a half-step golden immortal who intended to open the sky, but died due to exhaustion. Some are golden immortals who have experienced great catastrophes in the heavens and opened the boundaries of heaven and earth."

"I see!"

After hearing this, Xu Yang suddenly understood and solved many of his doubts.

He dreamed of the heavens and traveled through all realms. There was only one golden immortal whose existence could be confirmed, and that was the founder of Taoism.

Now, according to Qiong Gao, the Supreme Taoist Ancestor of the Taoist world is either an innate divine being born from chaos, or a golden immortal who experienced a great catastrophe and created the world.

Xu Yang is more inclined to the latter, because the development of the Taoist world is very orderly, with almost no exploratory stage. The Taoist ancestor created the world, created the Three Pure Ones, spread the three religions, established the Heavenly Palace... one thing after another, it seems that he is very experienced.

Therefore, it is very likely that the founder of Taoism was an immortal who had attained the Golden Immortal Realm for many years.

However, since he was a golden immortal with many years of experience and had the power to reopen the world from chaos, why couldn't he solve the problem of the Taoist spirit falling into silence, or reopen the world, but instead ascended to heaven with all the immortals and saints, and went to the earthly immortal world to live, and then disappeared together, leaving behind the mysterious realm of Tongtian that was shrouded in doubts?

These kinds of...

Xu Yang looked up at the sky and wanted to ask again.

Qiong Gao also saw the doubt in his heart: "Although the Golden Immortal has the ability to create the world, this is not easy. It is extremely difficult and huge. If you are not careful, you will be in danger of falling. For example, the two innate saints of my Xuanhuang died because of the creation of the world."

“Those who have achieved enlightenment for a long time, although they are better than Pan Fan, who is an innate saint who has not yet achieved his goal, still have to take great risks and consume a lot of their essence if they want to re-create the world in the chaos.”

“Even if it is completed, after twelve years, the great catastrophe of the heavens will start again, chaos will return, and everything will become nothingness again. It can almost be said that it is in vain.”

Qiong Gao sighed and resolved his doubts: "So many Golden Immortals who have achieved enlightenment will not create the world again, but choose to escape the calamity and leave!"

"Escaped?"

Xu Yang frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Where are you going?"

"Daluo Realm!"

Qiong Gao's expression was calm, but the four words he uttered were earth-shattering.

"Da Luo Realm?"

Xu Yang murmured, his brows furrowed, not understanding what was going on.

"Above the Golden Immortal is Daluo!"

Qiong Gao took over and narrated, "According to the last words of the Golden Immortals, above our world of heavens and myriad worlds, there is an eternal and immortal world, called the Daluo Realm. It is not subject to the calamities of the heavens or the difficulties of chaos. It is eternal and immortal, and it can be said to be the only true world."

"Most of the Golden Immortals who have attained the Tao in the worlds of the heavens have gone to this world. When one person attains the Tao, all the rest of the family will ascend to heaven. Many of them have ascended with their Taoism and avoided this great calamity in the heavens."

"So, in the universe, the Golden Immortals have disappeared!"

"..."

After listening to Qiong Gao's narration, Xu Yang fell silent.

The great catastrophe of the heavens, the return of chaos?
Golden Immortal Daluo, the only true realm?

Is it true or false, real or imaginary?
Xu Yang didn't dare to draw a conclusion.

Not to mention him, looking at Qiong Gao's expression, these are probably just his inferences. Although there are some words left by the Golden Immortal, it is still hard to tell whether they are true or false.

But this is not the point. What is his level of cultivation? His original body is just a human immortal. This incarnation that was bestowed by the Supreme Being is just an earthly immortal with the power of a celestial immortal. The golden immortal is too far away, and the Daluo is even more out of reach.

Therefore, whether the Daluo Realm is real or fake is not discussed for now.

The key is still the calamity of the heavens and the Mara Po-jun who is ready to make a move in the Blue Star Realm.

Qiong Gao also knew the key point here, and immediately said to him: "Whether the Daluo Realm is real or not cannot be inferred for the time being, but the catastrophe of the heavens must be true. I have traveled through the myriad realms and looked at the universe. Although they all have a long history, there is no clear record of a realm that has lasted for more than twelve epochs."

"Twelve Huiyuan!" Xu Yang frowned and calculated secretly in his mind.

The sky and the earth are dark yellow, the universe is vast and boundless, and the one who meets the origin is one of the universe. Twelve months make a year, thirty years make a generation, twelve generations make a cycle, thirty cycles make a meeting, and twelve meetings make a Yuan.

But that is just the perspective of mortals. If we talk about the growth of the world...

"Three hundred years make up one age, twelve ages make up one cycle, thirty cycles make up one meeting, twelve meetings make up one cycle. One meeting is 1,296,000 years, and twelve meetings are 15,552,000 years!"

Qiong Gao shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I have asked the Three Pure Ones and the Three Buddhas. From the time they were born into the world until now, my Xuanhuang Realm has only been around for 3.25 million years, which is not even the number of three primordial periods."

"But the boundary of the heavens is not defined by one world, but by the heavens and the myriad worlds, the entire chaos. I traveled through the heavens and inquired about the universe, and found that the most ancient boundary has reached the number of six primordial elements."

"This is the oldest realm I have ever reached. There may be realms I have not reached, reaching the eighth or ninth Huiyuan or even the tenth or eleventh Huiyuan."

"so……"

Qiong Gao turned his gaze and looked at Xu Yang: "Daoyou, do you know why Mo Luo is so eager to use his Golden Immortal power to invade the realm where Daoyou is, even if it means taking risks?"

Xu Yang's eyes condensed, and he said in a deep voice: "The great calamity is approaching, and he wants to become a golden immortal to escape the calamity?"

"Not bad!"

Qiong Gao nodded: "For us, one Hui Yuan is not that long. That Mara is the ancestor of the Desire Realm. He was born with the ability to travel through the realms. He should know more about this catastrophe than us. He first split the power of the Golden Immortal to invade the realm of the Taoist friends, and then gambled with me in Xuanhuang. If there is no reason behind it, why would he be so eager?"

"..."

Xu Yang frowned and continued, "So, the great catastrophe of the heavens is not far away?"

"I'm afraid so."

Qiong Gao nodded and said faintly, "This kind of calamity is beyond human control. If you don't become a Golden Immortal, everything will be over. That's why Mo Luo took the risk. Now that he has lost everything in my Xuanhuang, he will definitely give it his all and make a desperate attempt to attack the Daoist Fellow's realm!"

Hearing this, Xu Yang frowned even more: "The Desire Realm has not been destroyed?"

"Even a centipede dies but remains stiff, let alone the six desires of living beings."

Qiong Gao shook his head and calmly analyzed: "Although the Desire Realm lost the Four Heavenly Demon Kings and many demon gods this time, they were only seriously injured and not completely destroyed. They may even have a backup plan. Fellow Daoists should be careful and alert."

"In addition, Mo Luo lost half of his Golden Immortal power in a bet with me, and his original body that was left in the Demon Abyss also merged with the three demons and was destroyed by Pan Fan. So now all he has left is the other half of his Golden Immortal power, which is the Golden Immortal Demon Fruit in the Daoist Fellow World."

"According to what fellow Taoist said, the god of Brahma originally has the ability to combine the three phases into one. If he is then contaminated by Mara with half of the power of the Golden Immortal, then even if he doesn't enter the realm of the Golden Immortal directly, it won't be a problem for him to recover his power."

Qiong Gao looked at Xu Yang and said in a deep voice: "So fellow Daoist, you should either take the initiative and not give the demon a chance to recover, or look for an opportunity to become a Golden Immortal and master the power of the Golden Immortal before the demon and the Three-phase God assimilate."

"..."

Xu Yang was silent for a while, frowning and saying nothing for a long time.

Even if Qiong Gao didn't say anything, he understood these things.

But understanding is one thing, and operation is another.

Pre-emptive strike?

Or the Golden Immortal?

It sounds simple, but how to operate it?

His clone in the Blue Star Realm is still just a human immortal. Even though he has now obtained the celestial immortal status and the Supreme Dao Fruit in Xuanhuang, and his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds and he will soon be able to break through to the earthly immortal, he is still just an earthly immortal. How can he fight against the top celestial immortals, who can even combine the three phases into one, and now have the Three-Phase God with the Golden Immortal Magic Fruit to take the initiative?
Not to mention mastering the power of the Golden Immortal, which is even more difficult than the former. At least he can trace the Heavenly Immortals, but the Golden Immortals... So far, he has come into contact with only four beings who can reach the status of Golden Immortals.

The first is his foundation, attribute panel, and skill characteristics.

The second is the world of Taoism, the fruit of using the false to cultivate the true left by the Taoist ancestor.

The third and fourth are Qiong Gao and Boxun, the golden immortal powers wielded by the masters of the two worlds.

Needless to say, the third and fourth things cannot be sought at all. Even now Xu Yang cannot ask Qiong Gao. He traveled through the heavens and finally found out what the golden immortal power that can confront the demon is and where it came from.

This is an extremely private matter, and can even be considered the foundation of life. Just like his attribute panel, there is no reason to reveal it to outsiders. Even if it is revealed, others will not be able to copy it.

Therefore, Xu Yang did not ask too much to avoid embarrassment for everyone.

He couldn't count on three or four, and one or two would also be difficult. It was the fruit of the Taoist world of using the false to cultivate the true, but now he couldn't figure out what was going on, let alone use it for himself.

As for the attribute panel, it was something he had started with, and it can play a lot of roles now. However, if he wants to reach the level of Golden Immortal... not to mention that it is a long way off, it is also a hopeless hope.

Helpless!

Xu Yang said nothing. Although Qiong Gao knew his predicament, he could only remain silent at this moment.

There is nothing I can do to help.

After a while, Xu Yang raised his eyes and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for clearing up my doubts. Qingyang will take his leave now."

Qiong Gao heard this without saying much, and stood up to see him off: "Daoyou, take care. If you have any questions in the future, you can come to my Miluo Palace, and I will tell you everything I know."

"Thank you Emperor Zun!"

"..."

Xu Yang bid farewell to Qiong Gao, left the Heavenly Palace, and went straight back to the Taoist temple, Taiqing Dachitian.

The Xuanhuang Realm is centered on the "Law of Heavenly Gods and Earthly Gods". Immortals, Buddhas and saints all have their own paradise. This is especially true for celestial beings, who live directly in the sky, just like the previous territory world. Although it is not as good as the Xuanhuang Universe, it also has a middle thousand rank.

As the newly promoted Taoist master, Taishang Jiuyi Tianzun, Xu Yang also has a world as his Taoist temple, which is the previous territory world, now the Taiqing Dachitian.

Compared with the previous territory world, the Taiqing Dachitian after the sainthood is obviously larger in size. Except for Dizang who was released by him to return to Buddhism, the other heroes who belonged to him before are still serving him here. Various architectural wonders have not disappeared, but the power of "recruiting troops" has been lost.

But in reality it was not a loss. With his current status as a celestial being, it was not difficult for him to "recruit" some Taoist soldiers out of nothing. It was just that there was no need for it.

After returning to Taiqing Heaven and entering Wandao Palace, Xu Yang, who was alone, opened the attribute panel he had not seen for a long time.

As the foundation of his success and his greatest reliance along the way, this attribute panel has not appeared for a long time.

But it's just that they haven't appeared yet. In fact, they are still playing a role, and their various skill characteristics are accumulated over time and are constantly updated.

Unfortunately, it is just an update and further upgrade on the original basis, but it has not undergone a complete transformation and has not brought about any qualitative new skills or features.

But now...

Two golden lights bloomed brilliantly, and two new characteristic entries appeared in the skill bar!
