A journey of survival starting from Zhetian
Chapter 276 "Tao Te Ching"
Chapter 276 "Tao Te Ching"
The old Taoist priest who came wore a lotus crown on his head and held a green whisk shining with metallic luster in his right hand. There was a yin-yang Tai Chi diagram embroidered on his Taoist robe and he stepped on golden auspicious clouds. He looked like an immortal.
No, this old Taoist priest might be an immortal who has attained enlightenment. He must have comprehended the complete laws of immortality, and more than one.
This was the conclusion Xiong Mo came to after observing the Taoist aura emanating from the old Taoist priest in front of him.
However, something strange happened.
This old Taoist priest has clearly comprehended the complete laws of immortality, but he has not yet achieved true immortality, and it seems as if he is still vaguely rejecting the laws of immortality.
Normally, as long as human life comprehends a complete prototype of the immortal law, the heaven and earth will give it a strange induction, allowing it to sense its own immortal tribulation and then begin to overcome the tribulation.
Although the Heaven-shaking Universe had entered the Dharma Ending Period due to its origin, and it was basically impossible to attain the status of a True Immortal, after a round of repairs led by Xiong Mo, the origin of the universe had been restored a little, and the previously inactive will of the universe had gradually revived.
Now in the Zhatian Universe, as long as the Supreme Being can comprehend the complete outline of the immortal path, even if he still cannot overcome the calamity and become an immortal in the universe, the will of the universe will give him a certain degree of guidance, allowing him to enter the chaos and overcome the calamity of becoming an immortal.
Although after successfully overcoming the tribulation and becoming a true immortal, one can basically no longer enter the Zhutian Universe, which is similar to being exiled to the chaos, but it is still better than dying at the end of life.
Moreover, as long as one's cultivation is elevated to the level of a supreme immortal, one's own longevity substances and immortal essence will be able to withstand the passage and wear and tear of the Dharma-Ending Universe, and there will be no problem in entering casually.
Today, a small number of supreme beings are working towards this direction, attempting to comprehend a rudiment of the immortal law, and then enter the chaos to overcome the immortal tribulation and become true immortals.
The old Taoist's understanding of the immortal laws is what these supreme beings dream of. If they had this understanding of the immortal laws, they would definitely go to Primal Chaos without hesitation, pass the immortal tribulation and become a true immortal.
What made Xiong Mo feel even more strange and frown was the spirituality of the old Taoist priest himself.
There was nothing wrong with the immortal spirit of this old Taoist priest. With many profound immortal laws, he was much stronger than the average immortal. But from the spiritual level, Xiong Mo's spirituality was no longer pure, like a stitched monster with the spiritualities of two different life forms stitched together.
But these are not the most important things. What Xiong Mo finds hard to accept is the strength of this old Taoist priest.
His strength is not normal at all!
Although Xiong Mo's current body is still in the gestation stage, what comes out to move is just an incarnation composed of "a soul" + "a consciousness" + digital secret, and its combat power is not at its peak.
But now he has comprehended the Chaos Law of "Devouring the World", which is equivalent to having the Taoism of a Quasi-Immortal King. Even if he has not yet completely transformed this foundation into a completely adaptive one, it is not something that an ordinary top-notch True Immortal can compare to.
If he really had to fight a life-and-death battle with an ordinary top-level immortal, that is, a top-level immortal who had only comprehended one top-level immortal law, although this incarnation could not kill the opponent, it would be easy to beat him up and then give him a set of sealing packages.
With such Taoist skills, plus the combat power support brought by his indirect control of the fate fog of the Zhutian Universe, and the blessing of the great universe, he could still be touched by this old Taoist without knowing it. His cultivation and combat power are too abnormal.
Based on this terrifying strength, after a brief thought, Xiong Mo recognized the identity of the old Taoist in front of him.
Xiong Mo took a deep breath, walked forward slowly, and bowed to the old Taoist priest, "Greetings, Senior Brother Daode."
The person in front of him is undoubtedly the Lord of Morality. Apart from his abnormal strength, abnormal state, and abnormal Taoism, he is consistent with everything that this "old Lord of Morality" who seems to have "retired from the world" has shown in the past.
As for why he was called "senior brother"? In the case of his obviously abnormal strength, in order to avoid being beaten, calling him "senior brother" was nothing, Xiong Mo felt. Moreover, according to the lineage of Taoism and the time of enlightenment, calling him "senior brother" seemed to be nothing wrong.
The old Taoist priest kept observing Xiong Mo after seeing him, and only nodded slowly after Xiong Mo saluted.
The Heavenly Lord of Dao returned the greeting to Xiong Mo and said, "Junior Brother Xuanhuang, this Heavenly Lord of yours is really not easy to find."
Hearing what the Lord of Morality said, Xiong Mo understood that there was more than just this Lord of Morality in front of him that was abnormal, including the information he had learned.
But no matter what, finding the place where you are exposed is the most important thing. This kind of thing where someone touches you from behind and you are not aware of it can only happen once.
Xiong Mo stared at Daode Tianzun and asked directly, "Excuse me, Senior Brother Daode, how did you find me?"
The Lord of Morality stroked his white beard, and a strange power emanated from his body. The next moment, the entire Heaven-shading Universe seemed to be responding to the will of the Lord of Morality.
Xiong Mo was very familiar with this strange power. He had sensed a power similar to that of the Daode Tianzun from Senior Brother Lingbao. He also possessed three powers that were not as powerful but were very similar.
This is a [person], and it is a [person] that originates from the origin of the universe of Shrouding the Sky.
Looking at the [status] displayed by this moral senior brother in front of him, although Xiong Mo was a little jealous, he had no intention of snatching it away.
Because [status] is different from other things. It is not brought about by one's own cultivation and Taoism, but is condensed under certain conditions, or bestowed by heaven and earth themselves.
Without the consent or grant of the original owner of the [personality], this thing generally cannot be taken away. At least, the Immortal King certainly has no way to take away a complete [personality].
The Lord of Morality stretched out his hand, shattered the void around him, reached his hand into it, grabbed a small section of the long river of time in the universe, and placed it directly in front of him, revealing a picture.
. . .
In the ancient star of Honghuang, Xiyue, Lotus Peak, there is a Taoist temple called "Yuquanyuan".
An old Taoist priest was standing in the main hall with his back to the door, constantly fanning out rays of the Six Ding Divine Fire, burning the Bagua furnace in front of him.
Every once in a while, he would open the alchemy cauldron and put in pills of elixir of life and exotic flowers. During this time, he would also continuously insert pill seals to coordinate the medicinal power.
Until one day, the old Taoist looked at the wisps of Dan Qi with the Daoist rhyme of the king realm coming out of the alchemy furnace, and said with a smile, "It's been 30,000 years, and this quasi-immortal king-level medicine is about to be produced."
However, just as he was entering into the Dao rhythm and preparing to condense the elixir and open the furnace, a blood-red sun suddenly exploded in the universe's destiny, emitting a horrifying impact that directly impacted the destiny perceptions of all the extreme Daoists in the entire universe.
The old Taoist priest who was in harmony with the laws of nature and practicing the method of condensing the elixir was caught off guard and affected.
His hand paused slightly, and the Dan seal failed to be injected into the Bagua furnace in time.
In just a moment of delay, the white elixir energy in the furnace turned black instantly, and a burnt black powder accompanied by a strange smell floated out of the Bagua furnace and lingered for a long time.
. . . Apparently, because of the "bloody sun", the Lord of Daode made a mistake when he was condensing the elixir, and destroyed the elixir that had been refined for 30,000 years and was about to be released.
With the blessing of [Status] granted by the Heaven-Covering Universe, it is really hard to ignore such obvious cause and effect. In this case, even if Xiong Mo has [Status: Destiny Beacon], it is useless. Because he has not left the Heaven-Covering Universe, he cannot completely block the cause and effect of the Heaven-Covering Universe.
This causal search did not threaten Xiong Mo's life, and did not touch the high-level causal fate shielding ability in the [Gray Fog Space]. In this way, it seemed that it would not be that difficult for the Moral Lord to find Xiong Mo.
Looking at the content of the screen, Xiong Mo was stunned, his face full of embarrassment. He said to Daode, "Brother Daode, how about I compensate you with some Xuanhuang Merit?"
But the next moment, the Lord of Morality silently took out a tower that exuded the Dao rhyme of the king realm, which exuded vast amounts of Xuanhuang merits and Xuanhuang mother energy, which directly stunned Xiong Mo.
Looking at this quasi-Immortal King weapon that could be said to be built of "money", Xiong Mo's eyes widened and he shouted in his heart, "Why does the Lord of Morality seem to be more generous than Senior Brother Lingbao? Where did he get so much merit to forcibly build this tower into a quasi-Immortal King weapon?"
"Even if I bundle ten of me together and sell them to the big boss, I still can't get this much!"
After staring at this quasi-immortal king weapon for a while, Xiong Mo came back to his senses and continued to say to the Morality Heavenly Venerable, "How about I give you the immortal medicine?"
But Daode Tianzun shook his head and rejected him, "Junior Brother Xuanhuang, do you think that this old Taoist alchemist would be short of elixirs?"
Faced with this old Taoist priest who could hardly eat anything, Xiong Mo was completely helpless. This karma must be repaid, and he said to Daode Tianzun helplessly, "So what does Brother Daode want?"
However, Daode Tianzun just stroked his white beard, squinted his eyes, and said after a moment, "Junior Brother Xuanhuang, come and give me a hand?"
Although Xiong Mo didn't know why the Heavenly Lord of Morality suddenly changed the subject, a hint of interest flashed in his eyes. He was not curious about the strength of this second person who was revered as the Heavenly Lord in the universe of the Covering Heaven. That was fake.
"Come!"
As Xiong Mo retreated a distance and saluted, the battle suddenly broke out in this opened up space and time.
But before Xiong Moyu could make any move, the Taoist Lord of Dao raised the Taoist robe he was wearing, which turned into a huge Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram, covering the entire venue and completing the forced blockade of time and space.
The next moment, a golden bridge was erected in the air, and an extremely terrifying "weight" was suddenly applied to the entire space and time, causing it to creak under the heavy load. Then, powerful forces bloomed from it and merged into the old Taoist's body.
After Daode Tianzun rolled up his sleeves, a vast amount of blood and energy rushed up into the sky, and his body suddenly expanded more than ten times, turning into a small giant. Under his incomparably powerful divine power, the brilliant phantom of the sea of suffering hung upside down, and golden lines extended out and covered his arms.
Under the shining golden light, the green whisk instantly turned into a huge crutch, which was grasped tightly by the big hand that could run a horse and swung towards Xiong Mo.
Looking at the obviously wrong style of the painting, Xiong Mo's mouth twitched slightly. He opened his mouth to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, the green cane had already hit him with a wisp of immortal law.
Xiong Mo, who didn't want to risk a concussion, immediately waved his hand, and a huge silver portal instantly appeared in front of him.
"boom!"
The Lord of Morality, who came into contact with the light from the portal, was directly teleported to the other end of this space and time, and a terrifying crash sound was heard, causing countless space cracks.
Before Xiong Mo could dissipate the silver portal, the Lord of Morality attacked again, swinging his cane, faster, more fiercely, and more accurately than the last time.
"Wow!"
The green crutch hit Xiong Mo, but it only created ripples like water waves and did not hit his body.
Xiong Mo has already entered the deep space and time at this moment. Without the bombardment of the power that can penetrate the deep space and time, no effective damage can be done to him.
Obviously, the forced blockade of time and space by the Lord of Morality has been ignored by his profound knowledge of time and space.
Immediately afterwards, Xiong Mo's figure flashed, and he immediately escaped from the attack range of the Lord of Morality, and appeared at the other end of this space and time, once again avoiding the oncoming green crutch.
Daode Tianzun stared at Xiong Mo with his eyes wide open for a moment, and his blood energy suddenly dropped, and his body shrank back to its original size. The Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram covering the entire venue was also taken back and turned into a Taoist robe and draped over his body.
He swung the whisk that had transformed from his green cane, looked at Xiong Mo and said, "This time the fight is a draw, so I got the upper hand."
Xiong Mo nodded, agreeing with the idea of a tie. But as to whether it was really the Lord of Morality who took advantage, or he who took advantage, it was hard to say. After all, his [Personality: Destiny Beacon], [Personality: King of Time and Space], and [Personality: The Old One] were always supporting him.
According to what he has sensed so far, Daode Tianzun is already in his seventh life. Although he doesn't know how he transformed, his combat power is already at the level of a mid-to-late True Immortal.
According to the feedback from [Position: Old Days], there was a power in the body of the Moral Lord that seemed to be filled with past years, which made Xiong Mo dare not touch it at all. In addition, the quasi-immortal king weapon made of "money" also made him extremely wary.
At this moment, Daode Tianzun suddenly said to Xiong Mo, "I want an incarnation of Junior Brother Xuanhuang to use for alchemy."
Xiong Mo took a deep look at the Lord of Morality and replied, "Okay."
He would be willing to resolve the cause and effect with an incarnation. After all, he was about to reach the Quasi-Immortal King Realm, and it was better to resolve the cause and effect as much as possible.
The incarnation may be very valuable to other extreme supreme beings, because the most critical material for making an incarnation is one's own soul and consciousness. After Xiong Mo obtained [Personality: Old Days], these things are not worthless to him, but they are no longer precious.
Daode Tianzun stroked his white beard and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Xuanhuang is very generous."
A golden light flew out from the hands of the Lord of Morality and rushed directly towards Xiong Mo's body, completely erasing his self-consciousness.
. . .
At the same time, the luster emitted by the Xuanhuang Stone Embryo in the Dongxuan Sect suddenly dimmed.
Just when Xiong Mo was trying to use [Personality: The Old Days] to absorb past strength to recover despite his weakness, a scripture shining with golden light suddenly fell from the starry sky and merged into the Xuanhuang stone embryo.
The name of this scripture is "Tao Te Ching".
