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

Chapter 791: Sudden Enlightenment
Chen Yun observed this important information and immediately began to experiment.

He once again raised his "consciousness" to the trajectory of the Golden Elixir Avenue and merged it with his own life.

He quietly felt the great power that could push the Avenue forward, and wanted to add it to his life so that he could "move".

At first, although this great force could be observed, it could not be mobilized.

Chen Yun was not anxious at all. He just kept sensing and trying to mobilize.

He could mobilize the power of the Great Dao, so he didn't believe that this great power could not be mobilized.

As time went by, Chen Yun gradually discovered that his life seemed to be in harmony with that great power.

When this kind of harmony occurred, life inexplicably leaped, as if it had received a push, but the "force" was not controlled well, so life did not "move" along the trajectory of the road, but just "jumped" in place.

"what?"

Chen Yun could not help but feel delighted. "This great power can really affect the life entrusted to it."

He roughly understood that as long as he could master the "timing" of mobilizing this great force, he would most likely be able to make his life "move" along the trajectory of the great road.

Chen Yun has practiced for decades and knows the importance of "timing".

That is something you need to figure out bit by bit by trying it out yourself, and it’s not that if you think the “temperature” is right, then it will definitely be right.

In order to try out how much "temperature" could promote the "movement" of life, he began to adjust the mobilization force to the minimum state, and then tried to "promote" life.

Well, okay, this force is too small and it can’t push at all.

Chen Yun tried to add some strength, and his life moved a little, but still failed to "move".

He kept calm and continued trying.

three times.

Fifteen times.

Hundreds and thousands of times.

During this period, either the "heat" is too deep or too shallow, or the "exercise" is impossible, or the "exercise" is too big.

Finally, after 1,465 attempts, he found the right timing.

Under the influence of that magical power, life began to move at a constant speed on the trajectory of the avenue.

A magical "sense" was born in Chen Yun's "consciousness".

He seemed to have entered a mysterious realm, which made his understanding of everything more profound.

If I have to make a metaphor, Chen Yun felt that before he entered this magical sense, he was Peter Parker who had never been bitten by a spider, but after he entered this state, he was Spider-Man who could see other people's punches in slow motion.

That’s right, at this moment, everything was “sublimating” for him, and he reached a wonderful state where he could understand everything and all the rules in the world.

Of course, when life "runs" on the track like the Avenue, not only magical sensations are produced, but also a magical substantial force is produced.

Chen Yun could clearly sense that this newly generated force was extremely similar to the great force that was driving his life, but there were some differences.

how to say?

The great force that is driving life is an external force, it does not belong to oneself.

And this newly generated power is more like one's own "strength", which can be mobilized by oneself at any time.

This is where the difference lies.

The similarity is that both forces are extremely powerful and vast.

It seems that the power generated by the collapse of heaven and earth and the annihilation of all things is not enough to shake them in the slightest.

Chen Yun had a vague understanding, "I guess the great power that Lei Zu mentioned that can bless him with eternal immortality should be the power generated when life is in motion."

Not only did he understand that this force was powerful, he also realized that the faster his life "ran" along the trajectory of the Great Dao, the stronger the power he could generate.

Chen Yun noticed this, but did not execute it immediately.

Because he understands that he is now a "newbie" and has not yet fully mastered this "skill", how can he try other things?

If you really do that, it is very likely to affect the life that is running.

He thought it through. After he became more proficient in the process, he would gradually increase the speed of "running".

"Since my 'life' has been moved, there is no need to mobilize external forces for help."

Chen Yun could tell that the "force" used by the life to "move" now was its own, like a force of inertia that kept it moving.

Life has started to "move".

But a new problem came again.

How can one make life imitate the great power generated by the operation of the Tao and bless one's own body and spirit?

After a little thought, Chen Yun roughly knew what to do.

I have comprehended the Great Dao before and absorbed great power from its trajectory, so naturally I am adept at this.

He used the method he was familiar with before to draw upon the evil power generated when life "moved" along the trajectory of the Avenue and add it to himself.

Soon, this power was activated, but it did not benefit Chen Yun as he had expected.

"Ok?"

Chen Yun felt a little strange. "Why can I feel this great power covering me, but I can't bless it?"

This made him feel very strange; this kind of thing shouldn't happen.

Since the great power can be mobilized and can also cover one's own body and soul, there is no reason why it cannot be blessed.

"Is there some mystery in this?"

Chen Yun pondered hard, trying to find the secret.

To be honest, ever since his master was detained in Heaven, he has basically been relying on his own exploration to practice, so he doesn't have a very deep understanding of many things.

Now, as he thinks about it bit by bit, he has been constantly pondering what he has learned and experienced before, and gradually he has understood many things that he did not understand before.

This invisible change may not be directly reflected in his cultivation and realm, but it will make a big difference when he fights with others or practices in the future.

Chen Yun did not care whether he had a deeper understanding of certain things, but instead pondered how to add to himself the great power generated when his life was running on the trajectory of the Great Dao.

He really didn't expect it at first. Even Chen Yun was ready to exit this state and return his "consciousness" to reality.

Suddenly, he thought of a very important question, "My consciousness is now attached to my life, which allows it to move normally along the path of the Great Dao. If my consciousness returns to my body and soul, wouldn't my life lose control and be forced to stop moving?"

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Chen Yun seemed to suddenly realize something.

Why is it that after one’s life is entrusted to someone, even if his body and soul are destroyed, one can “come back to life”?

It's simple, because life is still there.

This may seem like nonsense, but it actually contains the highest truth.

Life and sex are the root of oneself, and the so-called form and spirit are just a "manifestation" of life and sex.

In Taoist philosophy, nature refers to the Tao within a person, including mind, thoughts, temperament, character, spirit, etc.

Specifically, "nature" can be understood as the original truth.

"Life" refers to the external way of human beings, covering body, life, energy, destiny, matter, etc.

Specifically, "life" can be understood as the innate essence, that is, vital energy, which is the source and driving force of human life.

In fact, the life that Chen Yun entrusted to others did not have the so-called "vitality", but only "will".

Yes, "will" is not anything that actually exists.

Chen Yun seemed to have realized some ultimate meaning. "To be in harmony with the Tao? I didn't understand how to be in harmony with the Tao before. Was it to merge my body and soul with the Tao, or was it some other method? Now I seem to have understood vaguely, that is to completely merge my 'will' with the Tao."

"Will" is an invisible and intangible existence. You can say it does not exist, but it does exist. If you say it exists, there is no evidence to prove its existence.

Practically speaking, "will" does not exist.

From a philosophical point of view, "will" exists objectively.

"I think I understand why I can't add this great power to myself..."

Chen Yun seemed to have a sudden realization and comprehended a profound truth. The reason why he was unable to add that great power to himself was entirely because he had always regarded the life he was entrusted with as a "backup" and his physical body and spirit in reality as the "main body".

Is this really the case?

The answer is definitely no.

Even if a person cultivates to become an immortal, his body and soul may still decay one day, but as long as your "will" is strong enough, it will never decay.

Therefore, as long as the "will lasts forever", no matter how great the power is, it cannot be destroyed.

Only by rising to the level of Daluo, which is beyond everyone's imagination, can a person's "will" be erased.

"It turns out that the real secret of the Half-Step Daluo's indestructibility is 'indestructible will'. Once the 'will is destroyed' one day, then this Half-Step Daluo will also be truly destroyed."

After Chen Yun figured out the truth, he no longer regarded the form and spirit of the real world as the "subject".

He began to take "nature and life" as the main body, and then visualized the great power blessing the body and soul through "nature and life".

Sure enough, when his "will" produced the idea of ​​blessing, that great power was truly blessed to his body and soul in an instant.

The next moment, Chen Yun felt his whole body vibrate, as if his life, which was originally "separated" from reality, had now completely connected the trajectory of the avenue with reality.

Even if his "consciousness" is still on the track of the Great Dao, it can still be the same as his body and soul in real life, allowing his body and soul to move and practice normally.

Or, in other words, at this moment, the life he pinned on and his physical form and spirit in reality were no longer distinguishable from each other.

If I say that my form and spirit exist, then they really exist.

If I say that my form and spirit do not exist, then it will vanish into nothingness in an instant.

This kind of "idealistic" ability made Chen Yun feel that it was more important than being blessed with great power.

It seems that even if the Yankang catastrophe comes, he will not perish, instead of just enduring the eternal catastrophe.

"This is probably the first great truth that I have comprehended from the trajectory of the Golden Elixir Avenue."

Chen Yun knew that this was not something he could understand for no reason. It was a treasure left by the Great Dao hidden in the trajectory of the Golden Elixir Great Dao.

"Master's understanding of the Golden Elixir Dao is already very profound. He proposed that one must practice the Refining Void and Combining Dao to transform into the original ancestral qi before one can achieve it."

Chen Yun analyzed, "In fact, the true unity with the Tao does not mean that you can transform yourself into any form, even the original ancestral qi. Instead, you need to completely merge your 'will' with the Tao, and then you can be like the Tao. This is called the true unity with the Tao."

To achieve this, one needs to use an immense amount of "energy".

Chen Yun’s current strength is definitely not enough to support the integration of “will” into the Tao.

However, since he understood this profound principle of the Tao, as long as he had enough strength one day, he would be able to achieve unity with the Tao naturally.

Of course, all of this is just my current speculation. Whether it is true or not, I will have to wait until I reach that level to know.

Although he is still unsure whether what he suddenly realized today is the truth, now that Chen Yun has understood it, he can achieve eternal immortality like Lei Zu, who is a half-step Daluo.

Unless Daluo takes action himself, no one can destroy him.

The reason for this is that Chen Yun knows that his "will" will not be extinguished.

"Although I am now immortal, my own strength is still not strong. After all, my cultivation level is there."

Chen Yun thought secretly, "But my combat power has been greatly increased. Since I can rely on 'will' to bless the great power to my body and soul, then I can naturally use it to fight others. The only pity is that I understand too little about the Great Dao, and I can't bless the power of the Great Dao for my own use. In other words, I can't imitate the power of the Great Dao for my own use."

Yes, after he realized this, he understood clearly that whether it was Lei Zu or Moli Pu Tian, ​​none of them were truly mobilizing the power of the Tao, but imitating the power of the Tao.

What does it mean to truly mobilize the power of the Tao?
When he had fought with Ziqi Star Lord before, he had mobilized the power of "Avenue of Equality", which was the real mobilization.

The power of the Great Dao is the strongest force. How could it be unable to break the great force generated when life runs along the trajectory of the Great Dao?

The reason why it couldn't be broken was entirely because Lei Zu and Moli Pu Tian did not use the real power of the Tao, but only imitated it.

"They are just 'picking up' the treasures left behind by the Great Dao as it moves along its path. They are not one with the Dao, so how can they mobilize the true power of the Great Dao at will?"

Chen Yun remembered that a Half-Step Daluo could sense the Great Dao, but it was impossible for him to sense it all the time, so his life had to depend on the trajectory of the Great Dao.

If one could always sense the Great Dao, he would have comprehended the profound principles long ago and thus achieved unity with the Great Dao. Who would simply entrust their life to the trajectory of the Great Dao?
He is different. So far, he has sensed two avenues and has pinned his life on the trajectory of the Golden Elixir Avenue, which he has never sensed. If the Golden Elixir Avenue runs again in the future, he will definitely be able to sense it.

None of this matters.

What is interesting is that Chen Yun can always sense the "Avenue of Equality".

If his previous guess was correct, then when his power reaches a certain level, even without the "Daluo Lingtang", he can merge with the "Dahuluo Avenue" and become a true Daluo Immortal!
