Chapter 615 The Last Step in Finding the Answer

Go to Tushita Palace.

Li Ping'an rested for a while, then sneaked away from the gate of Zhuyun Sect.

He walked outside the painting and saw the huge crowds of people near Zhuyun Sect, and the Avenue of All Living Beings also felt their emotions.

Confused, worried, excited, helpless...

In general, all Qi cultivators who are concerned about the future lifespan of heaven and earth are currently in a state of depression and pessimism.

This is normal.

Li Pingan was almost unable to hold on any longer. He could only gain a little confidence when he encouraged the people around him, and then told himself that there is always a way out and justice has a 30% chance of winning.

The vain sun, the transcendent, the world-destroying demon;

Father;

The two figures that appeared in his mind seemed to be slowly overlapping, but they... one was slightly fat, the other was thin, they looked different no matter how you looked at them.

Li Ping'an smiled bitterly, feeling a splitting headache and numbness in his limbs. The road ahead seemed to be distorted and the clouds turned into cotton candy.

At his level, he could still have hallucinations;
This should be a sign that one's ability to endure has reached its limit.

The Heavenly Palace, wrapped in the Heavenly Protection Array, was quietly suspended in the sky, with fairy islands floating inside and clouds and mist everywhere.

The world of celestial beings in the lower three heavens is already very prosperous. The celestial beings who have been constantly reincarnated have opened up towns here. Living creatures can be seen everywhere, and there is harmony everywhere.

'Empty prosperity.'

Li Ping'an didn't want to look any longer. He took a few steps and appeared outside the Tushita Palace.

The Heavenly Emperor Seal was hanging in the same place. At this moment, it seemed to sense Li Ping'an and its rotation frequency became faster, emitting a faint golden light.

The shadow of Pangu Banner fluttered slightly.

Near the Heavenly Emperor Seal, more than 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers were sitting in groups near and far. They formed a large formation to protect the area of ​​a hundred feet in radius.

Li Ping'an did not show up to meet them, but instead slipped into the half-open door of the Tushita Palace.

In the middle of the courtyard, Master Xuandu, who was sitting cross-legged on a cushion, slowly opened his eyes and looked at Li Pingan with a smile.

"Laojun said that His Majesty would come to look for the Chaos Bell soon, and His Majesty has indeed come."

Li Ping'an forced an ugly smile and walked dejectedly to the great wizard.

The great wizard casually cast a prayer mat, set up a low table, and placed a few Nine-Transformation Elixirs and two cups of warm tea on it.

He said, "Your Majesty, please don't work too hard. You seem to be in a very bad condition and your face is a little pale...Take some pills to replenish your body?"

Li Ping'an picked up a pill and swallowed it. Wisps of cool air flowed through his body, and a feeling of pleasure spread throughout his body.

The pleasure of luxury;

Worth a Nine Revolutions Elixir.

Li Pingan felt better and whispered, "Master, I'm a little confused. I'm not saying I'm confused, I just don't quite understand."

"I don't quite understand why Master Taiqing thinks the new world is better?"

The Archmage sneered:
“I don’t really understand, but I’m not as conflicted as you are.

"Since we are here, we should make peace with it. If the world wants to die, it will die... Sometimes I wonder what the true destination is. In this world, is there any difference between returning to silence naturally and being sacrificed?"

"Different. Very different."

Li Pingan's eyes became firm:

“If Master Uncle is trying to persuade me, then forget it. I don’t want to give up this last bit of persistence.

"Can I ask Master Uncle a question?"

"You said."

Li Pingan asked: "What is the purpose of human life in this world?"

"For the sake of living itself," the great wizard said slowly, "our lives and mine have nothing to do with others. The same goes for our lives and cultivation. It's only because you and I desire each other's connection and recognition that we establish connections with others."

"I think that people live in this world not only for themselves but also to find their own value."

"Value? That's just an illusion."

The Grand Master said in a gentle voice:

“Helping others is a good thing, but if the person you help hurts someone else, isn’t that a bad thing for others?
"Everything is relative. There are no fixed rules or values.

"It's quiet and natural, why bother?"

"So, the essence of the Taoist teachings is to seek inner peace in another direction, to escape from the world, to practice, to be free, and thus to find one's own freedom and tranquility."

Li Pingan laughed at himself:
“But I don’t want this, even though I recognize that this kind of freedom is true freedom.

"Cultivate oneself, regulate the family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world; this is what a real man should do.

"Of the three Taoist teachings, I agree most with the teachings of the Chan School, which is not to fight against nature, but to do what one can for all living beings."

The great wizard nodded slightly: "I can't convince you. After all, I am a disciple of the Human Sect, and you are a disciple of the Chan Sect... Let's talk about Donghuang Taiyi. What did he say to you? I am really puzzled."

"Where's the Chaos Clock?"

The great wizard raised his thumb in front of his chest, shook his head backwards, and winked gently at Li Ping'an.

Chaos Bell was listening in the house - Li Pingan understood what the great wizard meant.

Li Pingan understood what he meant and sighed softly, taking this opportunity to further confront Laojun and Taiqing.

He said, "Taiyi is in a lot of pain. He told me a lot and explained a lot. His current situation is very awkward. After the Chaos Bell brought him back to ancient times, he gained many new memories. They were all about him being controlled and constrained by his father. He was required to strictly follow his path... His heart of Taoism collapsed."

"It's normal for the heart of Tao to collapse."

The Archmage sighed:
"It's not easy for Donghuang Taiyi either. Others thought he was a great man in the ancient times, but who knew he was just a puppet.

"I'm afraid Chaos Bell is not sincere to Donghuang Taiyi?
"This is too tragic."

Li Pingan said, "Actually, that's not the case. Chaos Bell treats Taiyi like an elder cares for a younger person. Chaos Bell really wants to help Taiyi."

The great wizard asked back: "Helping Donghuang Taiyi means summoning his ancient self to fight against you? It means putting him in an absolutely passive position?"

"That can't be said," Li Pingan sighed, "The Chaos Bell actually wanted to inspire Taiyi's fighting spirit and let him make a decision in ancient times. If he wanted to rebel against his father at that time, the Sixth Patriarch had not yet been locked by the Hongmeng Purple Qi, and there would be various variables... It's a pity that Taiyi is too gentle after all, and he was locked by the Transcendent's emotions."

"Alas," the great wizard sighed, and looked at Li Ping'an, each thinking about how to 'speak' next.

In a corner, the green bull swung its tail, and the two figures reflected in the bull's eyes seemed to have two pairs of fox ears.

This is the beginning of the 'strategy' for the Chaos Clock.

Li Pingan asked: "Can the Chaos Clock communicate with us now?"

"I don't think so. The spirit of the Chaos Bell has been watching Laojun making the elixir and has no intention of speaking."

The Archmage shook his head and asked:
"What do you want to know from her?"

"Something about me."

"Oh? Your business?" The great wizard was really interested this time.

"I want to know how my father and I came here," Li Pingan said calmly, "It's no longer a secret. My father and I were sucked here from another world. I want to know what happened in between, how it happened, and... whether Old Man Wangri is my father Li Dazhi."

"what?"

The extent of the wizard's glare was comparable to that of the green bull beside him.

"Pangu, what nonsense are you talking about? Just like your father, well, that's not what I mean. I mean, your father's face as a street businessman... that's not..."

Li Ping'an raised his hand to support his forehead and said, "Master, please stop talking."

He hurriedly said:
“I had only guessed before, and even thought that Old Lady Wangri was my mother, but later I felt that was unlikely.

"Taiyi said that he was just my substitute. He wanted to say this in the Lingxiao Palace, but he held back. That was actually the main reason why he wanted to commit suicide in ancient times. "No one wants to be a substitute for someone else."

Archmage:…

Li Pingan continued, "Taiyi also said that Wangri did all this for two purposes. His obsession was divided into two halves. One half was to find me, and the other half was to open up a perpetual world for me to be the master. Then he would let the two children he chose assist me, and through this opening up, revive his original world."

The archmage looked up at the sky.

Li Pingan sighed, "Two more masters have come from Taiyi's side, one is Wentian, the other is Ziyuan. They are said to be the Eight Evils, Wangri's subordinates, and their strength is not inferior to that of Master Bo."

"this!"

The Archmage glared and asked, "They still have eight such masters?"

"More than a hundred," Li Pingan said, "this is just what Taiyi knows."

"Then what are we fighting for?"

"If we don't fight, there will be no chance of survival. If we fight, there might be a chance of survival," Li Pingan added. "I mean, no living being except me will survive. Even the saints of the Western religions will be sacrificed... just like the private collections of those transcendents my father saw."

The great wizard raised his hand to his forehead and remained silent for a long time.

Li Ping'an looked at the wizard quietly, looking forward to the wizard's next assist.

Unexpectedly, the great wizard suddenly said, "Okay, go find the Chaos Bell. It's inside. You don't need to greet Laojun when he's refining the elixir. He can't hear it."

Li Pingan blinked: "Let's not talk anymore?"

"What else is there to talk about? My heart is about to collapse."

The Archmage raised his head and sighed:
"Go ask it yourself."

Li Pingan couldn't help but smile.

The archmage's ability to withstand pressure is not very good.

He casually took away the Nine Revolutions Spiritual Pills, drank the tea, and walked into the alchemy room behind the great wizard with his hands behind his back.

The great wizard sat there and sighed dejectedly.

Li Ping'an suddenly told him so much that it was a little difficult for him to digest.

"Is it so outrageous? The transcendent is Li Dazhi? However, if this is true, it can explain a lot of things."

The Archmage muttered to himself.

The conversation in this small courtyard will naturally not be spread to other areas.

……

The double act between Li Ping'an and the great wizard was quite effective.

When he saw the Chaos Bell again, the spirit of the Chaos Bell had already floated out and was looking at him with a complicated expression.

The Chaos Bell still remained more than one foot high, floating in the corner of the main hall of the Tushita Palace. Not far away was the huge Bagua Furnace.

Laojun sat quietly in front of the Bagua furnace, refining the elixir. Xiaojin and Xiaoyin sat on his left and right, also staring at the Bagua furnace intently.

Li Ping'an bowed to Laojun from a distance, but got no response. He turned around and walked to the Chaos Bell and gave it an ugly smile.

"You already know everything," Zhong Ling said dejectedly, "You are the real one, and Taiyi is the fake one. This is the core of all the problems."

"It's not about everything, it's just about Taiyi."

Li Pingan said:

"I think the more important question is how to stop Wang Ri."

"Why don't you even call me teacher?"

"I'm not sure what to call him next," Li Pingan said, "I will go to his place and ask him clearly. I may not be able to come back this time."

"Are you afraid he'll lock you up there?"

"Yes," Li Pingan sighed, "but I have to go there. This matter must be clarified."

"In fact, you already know the truth," Zhong Ling said, "He is your father Li Dazhi, but not this Li Dazhi. His experience is very complicated. He killed so many lives just to find you and your father."

"I don't understand!"

"I don't understand it either," Zhong Ling said, "How exactly was this done? I watched the whole process, but I don't understand it. I can't comprehend the avenue beyond the avenue of time."

Li Pingan looked at Zhong Ling quietly.

Li Pingan asked: "Do you want to help Taiyi?"

"I am not a living being," Zhong Ling said, "I don't need to think about the meaning of life. My essence is just a weapon spirit. Weapon spirits only have two choices: who to be loyal to and who to get close to."

"You are loyal to your creator and close to Taiyi?"

"Ah."

Zhong Ling nodded slightly:

“As you said, I watched Taiyi grow up. I don’t want him to suffer too much, but his identity was doomed from the very beginning. He is just a accumulation of tragedies.

“Taiyi’s original world was the previous world, which was destroyed by my master.

“His family and friends all.

“He was raised by his mortal enemy, but he had no hatred. Or rather, he was controlled so that he had no hatred.

"He thought he had his father's favor, but in fact... it was all just his own fantasy.

"If you want to rebel against my master, your father, can you, can you not involve him? Whether you can succeed depends on how much tolerance my master has for you. Even your rebellion is part of his plan. He wants you to rebel so that you can gain the respect of all living beings.

"But Taiyi...he has nothing left."

Li Ping'an looked at Zhong Ling, and Zhong Ling looked at him with a wry smile.

Li Pingan suddenly asked: "How can I find your master?"

"Go to Xuandu City, fly forward after leaving Xuandu City, and look for a wisp of Xuanhuang Qi. That Xuanhuang Qi can guide you to find the secret place where he is."

Chaos Clock pursed his lips tightly after he finished speaking.

She frowned and looked at Li Pingan: "It seems... my mission is completed..."

"what?"

"He threw me here, as if to let me show you the way," the Chaos Bell's spirit raised his hand to support his forehead, "Go and seek his forgiveness. Right now, the gap between you and him is still like the gap between a mortal and a god."

"Doesn't he have any weaknesses?"

"If you look in the mirror, you will find his weakness, right?"

Chaos Bell curled his lips, his voice became more and more distant, and his figure gradually merged back into Chaos Bell's body.

“I’m going to sleep.

“Take good care of Taichi for me, and try not to involve him in these things. You will eventually become my new master, and I am the key to a new world.

"If you want to find his other weaknesses, you can go into his sarcophagus. There is his whole life... except for yours."

Li Ping'an's fingers trembled slightly.

He stood in front of the Chaos Bell for a long time, until the loud cry of the Garuda was heard outside the Tushita Palace.

"Go."

Laojun's voice was filled with a gentle sigh:
“Go find all the answers, this is the only chance in the world.

"As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will make the choice I should make."

Li Pingan smiled calmly.
