Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 768 Only One Chance

Were you undergoing the test of the Great Dao before?

If one could attain enlightenment in the cycle of reincarnation, would one be able to ascend to heaven in one step and attain the status of a great immortal?
Even if you cannot attain enlightenment, as long as you don't get lost, you can escape from the predicament and reach the sacred mountain on the other side?

Chen Yun's brief words stunned everyone present.

Chang Tiansheng instinctively wanted to refute, but then he thought again and felt that the strange space they were in before was indeed a bit weird.

Take normal illusions for example. Generally speaking, the higher the level of cultivation and the stronger the willpower, the less likely one is to be deceived.

In that strange space, reincarnation is not like that, but the opposite is true. The lower the cultivation level and the weaker the willpower, the less "reincarnation" there is, and the easier it is to break free from it.

For example, Heima, the Qishou couple, and Mr. and Mrs. Hu Santaiye only experienced one cycle of reincarnation.

However, people with higher cultivation and stronger willpower will encounter more "reincarnations".

The long-browed immortal Li Changgeng experienced reincarnation for seven full calamities.

Changshengtian’s experience was even more exaggerated, as he directly experienced the cycle of eighteen kalpas.

Judging from the level of cultivation, this is absolutely correct.

The cultivation level of Changmei Daxian and Changshengtian was similar before.

Then why did Changshengtian eventually experience eleven more reincarnations than Changmei Daxian?
This has to do with the two words "Dao heart".

As the supreme god worshipped by the Mongolian people, Changshengtian has endured and experienced a great many things, so his faith in Taoism is naturally stronger.

Although Changmei Daxian is the main god of Jiuding Tiesha Mountain, he is only a "local god". The things he has endured and experienced are far less than those of Changshengtian, so naturally his Taoist heart is not as strong.

In addition, could a person who can be worshipped as the Supreme God in a myth have a weak faith in the Tao?
The Great Immortal Changmei has never become a supreme god in mythology like Changshengtian.

After thinking about it this way, Chen Yun's inference seemed to make sense.

Otherwise, why could Changshengtian, Changmei Daxian, Heima and others achieve enlightenment and become immortals in the fantasy world and eventually bless reality?

In this situation, it is very likely that, as Chen Yun said, everyone is actually undergoing the test of the great way.

Those who can pass the test will be able to directly achieve Daluo through this avenue.

Even if you almost fail the test, as long as you don't get lost, you can still gain great benefits from it.

Just like Chang Tiansheng, Changmei Daxian, Heima and others, their cultivation has experienced explosive growth.

Changshengtian said solemnly: "Perhaps it is really like what Master Chen said, we have been tested by the Great Dao."

The Immortal Changmei said with regret: "It's a pity that none of us passed the test, otherwise we would have a high chance of becoming a Daluo."

"I really don't dare to think about it."

"Yes, we know our own business. Our talents may be amazing in front of ordinary geniuses, but who isn't divine? How many people have achieved Daluo?"

"It is actually very satisfying that my cultivation has greatly increased."

Heimam, the Qishou couple, and Mr. and Mrs. Hu San were not upset at all, and even seemed satisfied.

These people all have self-awareness and know their own talents, so how could they possibly feel regret?
Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian are different, they "rocketed" to the late stage of the celestial realm and were only one step away from reaching the half-step to Daluo. It seemed that they could reach Daluo with more effort, but in the end they failed.

Originally, it’s nothing that they don’t know that this is a test from the Great Dao.

Now that Chen Yun’s explanation had been given, Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian had realized that they had missed out on a great opportunity, and they felt extremely upset.

Fortunately, Chen Yun didn't say anything else, otherwise the two of them would have been even more uncomfortable and annoyed.

What he didn't say out loud actually meant that he believed there was only one chance to pass this kind of test. Once you failed the test, there would never be a second chance.

At least for the avenue that creates real illusions, there is only this one chance.

Why does he think so?
It's a very simple principle, just like when a company is recruiting employees, you as the interviewer interview the applicant, and he/she is rejected because he/she does not meet the requirements, will you call him/her again and arrange a new round of interview?

Of course, this is just speculation and we don’t know the real situation yet.

Therefore, he did not say it proactively, otherwise others might think that he wanted to eliminate the "competitor".

There was another reason that he did not say out loud, and that was that once Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian knew that there was only one chance to achieve Daluo, and they missed it, their Taoism would definitely collapse.

This is no joke.

Since ancient times, there have been countless people practicing cultivation, like the fish in the river, but how many of them have achieved the Daluo?
Let alone becoming Daluo, how many people have gotten the chance to become Daluo?

Very few.

Therefore, once Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian knew that they had missed what was most likely their only chance to achieve Daluo in their lifetime, their Taoism faith would surely collapse as they had guessed.

Another point is that Chen Yun instinctively believed that the so-called Chaos Demon God who guards the mountain had actually known the secret for a long time, so he stopped others from going because he was afraid that someone would pass the test of the Great Dao first and thus be the first to achieve Daluo.

After all, one avenue can only allow one living being to attain Daluo.

Who would be willing to give up such a precious opportunity?
That is, what the Chaos Demon God is really guarding is not the treasure on the sacred mountain, but the opportunity to become a Daluo.

Chen Yun looked at everyone and said, "None of us should mention what happened today. Otherwise, if someone knew that there was a chance of becoming a Great Luo, even if there was only a tiny hope, they would take the risk without hesitation. Then many people might be killed, and the chance to become a Great Luo might be taken away by others. Only one person can become a Great Luo on a road."

Changshengtian immediately assured: "I will not tell anyone about this matter, Master Chen, you can rest assured."

The Immortal Changmei also quickly assured, "Although I don't know who among us will have the chance to pass the test of the Great Dao in the end, it is enough for the nine of us to know about it. If more people knew about it, the competition would be even greater. I will not tell anyone about it either."

As they talked, they cast their eyes on Hei Mama, the Qishou couple, and Mr. Hu San and his wife.

These people basically have no chance of passing the test of the Great Dao. In fact, it is difficult for them to be strong competitors of Chen Yun, Erlang Shen, Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian. However, precisely because these people have "no desires and no demands", they are the most likely to leak information.

In order to prevent such precious information from leaking out, Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian would of course take a look at this group of people.

Black Mama knew the importance of the matter and assured her, "Master, Great Immortal, don't worry, I am not a talkative person. I will keep this matter to myself and will not tell anyone."

Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian nodded slightly, appearing very satisfied.

Qishou looked at the goddess and also assured her, "We are a couple who don't talk much. Besides, if this matter is known by others, it will not be good for us. We might be captured by the gods or demons with boundless magic power and used as guides to the secret realm. If we are lucky, we can save our lives. If we are unlucky, we will probably be beaten to a pulp."

His words came from the bottom of his heart, and he outlined the pros and cons.

Finally, it was Master Hu San who said bluntly, "I can't tell you."

Seeing that everyone had given their guarantee, Changshengtian and Changmei Daxian finally smiled.

Especially Changshengtian, his eyes became much clearer.

Chen Yun noticed this keenly, and he had enough reasons to believe that if Hei Mama, the Qishou couple, and Mr. and Mrs. Hu San were unwilling to give their guarantees, they would probably disappear inexplicably in a short time.

This Changshengtian is definitely a ruthless person, he just pretends to be harmless.

Chen Yun secretly noticed the other party and instinctively became alert. He looked at everyone calmly, "Since we have almost finished talking about it, let's go back to Lupeng and introduce you to some powerful gods."

"Oh?" Changshengtian showed curiosity. "I heard from you, Master Chen, that there are three people who can fight against one of the Four Saints of the North Pole. Do you want to introduce these three to us? Also, I saw many gods of the Thunder Department outside Lupeng before. Could it be that a more powerful god from the Thunder Department has come? For example... one of the Five Thunder Emperors?"

The Immortal Changmei, Black Mother, the Qishou couple, and Mr. and Mrs. Hu San were all very interested in this and wanted to know how many powerful gods there were on Chen Yun's side.

Chen Yun looked at Erlang Shen standing beside him and said casually, "There are three people who can fight against one of the Four Saints of the North Pole. They are my Senior Brother Lu, Tianshi Zhang and Tianshi Ge. As for the Thunder Department, some powerful and influential gods have indeed come, such as Jiu Tian Ying Yuan Lei Sheng Pu Hua Tian Zun, the Five Marshals, the Five Thunder Emperors, the Five Thunder Kings, etc. In addition, Lao Jun's disciples, Medicine King Li Zhenren, Xu Tianshi and others are also here."

Hearing this, Changshengtian's pupils dilated slightly.

The Immortal Changmei and Black Mama looked at each other in surprise.

The Qishou couple and the Hu San Taiye couple were even more shocked.

They really didn't expect that Chen Yun's "lineup" was so luxurious.

It is understandable that Lu Dongbin and Tieguai Li came to help. After all, one is Chen Yun's senior brother and the other is an elder. It would be unreasonable for them not to come to help.

But they never expected that not only three Heavenly Masters came, but almost all the bigwigs of the Thunder Department came.

Even one of the rulers of heaven and earth, Jiutian Yingyuan Leisheng Puhua Tianzun, appeared in person.

For a moment, Changshengtian, Changmei Daxian, Heima and others were secretly shocked by Chen Yun's great power.

At the same time, they also had a vague premonition that the biggest enemy in the Battle of Luancheng might not be the Four Saints of the North Pole, but someone else.

Changshengtian originally thought that he would be the "protagonist" this time, but he didn't expect that Leizu was here, and his momentum suddenly weakened a lot.

He asked tentatively: "Thunder Ancestor has come here in person, is there an opponent in Luancheng who is more powerful than the Four Saints of the North Pole?"

Changmei Daxian, Heima, the Qishou couple and others all pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what was going on.

Chen Yun looked calm and nodded, "Yes, it is said that the Bodhisattva Mari Putian has descended to Luancheng."

"Wha...what?"

"The Bodhisattva Maripada has arrived?"

"She is half a step into the Daluo realm!"

"This……"

Changshengtian, Changmei Daxian, Heima and others were shocked.

After hearing that Lei Zu had arrived, they already had a premonition that this battle would be extraordinary.

Unexpectedly, I might see a great battle between two Half-Step Daluo masters. It was really amazing.

Changshengtian couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that he didn't pretend to be cool before, otherwise he would have been very embarrassed.

The Immortal Changmei was somewhat surprised and asked, "Why is the Bodhisattva Mari Putian with the Four Saints of the North Pole?"

Chen Yun explained, "In fact, this is not the first time I have encountered Mari Pu Tian Bodhisattva. I was almost captured by her before. Since then, I probably have understood that Mari Pu Tian Bodhisattva may have reached some common agreement with Zi Wei Emperor. In other words, what we are facing now is not the strongest formation."

Changshengtian's expression changed slightly, "You mean, in the future, Emperor Ziwei might personally take action?"

Chen Yun nodded and said, "Yes."

Although Heimam, the Qishou couple, the Hu San Taiye couple and others have not yet witnessed the magnificent battle in the future, they can already imagine how magnificent the battle will be when it comes.

After roughly explaining the situation, Chen Yun stood up and said, "Let's go back to Lupeng. There are many gods waiting for us."

Changshengtian stood up right after him, "Good, it's a good opportunity to see the divine appearance of Leizu."

The Great Immortal Changmei, Black Mother, the Qishou couple and others also looked forward to meeting Leizu.

……

Chen Yun led a group of people back to Lupeng.

Erlang Shen had other things to deal with and did not follow along.

I didn't see Master Xu, but I guessed he had already started a battle with the Three Star Gods in the world where the Nine-Curve Pearl evolved.

He introduced the two parties to each other.

"I've seen Tianzun."

"No gift."

"Master Zhang, I am honored to be here."

"Haha, you're welcome."

Changshengtian, Changmei Daxian, Heima and others paid their respects to the sacred beings one by one.

Although the gods did not think highly of the God of Barbarians, they still had to give face to Chen Yun and gave him a certain welcome.

On the contrary, Changshengtian, Changmei Daxian, Heima and others appeared unusually humble, probably because they were impressed by Leizu's majesty.

Chen Yun glanced at the empty seat of Master Xu and asked slowly, "When did Master Xu go there?"

Ge Tianshi said: "I just went there not long ago, and I should have run into the Three Star Gods by now."

Lord Ma sighed, "Master Xu has boundless magical power. It shouldn't be a problem for him to defeat the Three Star Lords. We can just wait here for good news."

Master Guan agreed: "This battle should be the most stable of the subsequent battles."

Marshal Deng said with a smile: "Master Xu is extremely powerful. Although the Star Lord of the Three Terraces is also very good, he is still a little inferior to him."

"Yes."

"Master Xu will definitely win."

"We can rest assured about this battle."

The Nine-Headed Bull Demon King, the Monkey King, and the Golden-Eyed Ghost all said so.

It can be seen that everyone has great confidence in Master Xu Tianshi.

Chen Yun also thought so. If Master Xu Tian couldn't win the fight, then there would be no need to fight the remaining matches.

Having said that, everyone's attention was still directed towards the world where the Nine-Curve Pearl evolved.

Everyone wants to know how the battle between Xu Tianshi and Santai Xingjun will go.
