After the myth

Chapter 864 Ling Zhuzhen's Enlightenment

Ding Huan hadn't seen Ling Zhuzhen for a short time. When he saw Ling Zhuzhen again, he found that this guy looked much weaker.

Not only that, the Dao rhyme on his body was also more chaotic than before.

"Old Ling, you're not having a good time. Why are you getting worse day by day?" Ding Huan couldn't help but tease.

Ling Zhuzhen then saw Ding Huan and Gabrielle approaching. He looked at Ding Huan in disbelief: "Ding Xiaotu, you are really back?"

Ever since Ding Huan left, Ling Zhuzhen has been thinking about Ding Huan almost every breath.

He had thought Ding Huan was lying to him before, but after Ding Huan tried it on his arm, he knew that Ding Huan was not lying to him.

Even in this universe, there is only one person who can solve his chaos in the shortest time, and that is Ding Xiaotu in front of him.

Later, he heard from Jia Qian that Ding Huan had been taken away by Yan Jiuyue of the Blue Star Sect, and was probably in great danger.

For Ling Zhuzhen, this news made him even more despair than his own situation.

What he didn't expect was that Ding Huan really came back and was now in front of him.

"Otherwise, since you helped me, I will naturally help you once." Ding Huan laughed.

Only then did Ling Zhuzhen see Gabriel.

He knew Gabriel, who had come to Beixingtian City with Yan Zhuo.

According to Jia Qian, Ding Xiaotu wanted to pretend to be Gabriel's Taoist partner, and after that, he would be killed by Yan Jiuyue.

Why is it different from what Jia Qian said now?
Not only did Ding Xiaotu come back, but it seemed that he also brought Gabriel with him?
If Yan Zhuo knew this, even if Ding Xiaotu had a hundred lives, he would probably not be enough to be killed.

Jiang Ling Zhuzhen was still in shock, so Ding Huan simply said, "Old Ling, do you dare to come with me now, and then find a place for me to help you?"

"Why not?" Ling Zhuzhen said immediately.

He is in this situation now, what is there to be afraid of?

Ding Huan looked at Ling Zhuzhen in surprise: "You seem to have become braver? You were living a timid life before."

Ling Zhuzhen sighed: "I never gave up. Even though I knew I couldn't get away and couldn't get rid of the chaos, I still longed to recover and kill the guy who took my avenue.

After you slapped me, I knew that I would never be able to get rid of chaos on my own.

And Jie Jun will not allow me to recover..."

"The one who robbed Beixingtian City was Jie Gun? Is this guy also a Taoist ancestor?" Ding Huan asked casually.

Ling Zhuzhen nodded: "Yes, he is indeed a Daozu, but he is a Daozu with no bottom line and insulted the word Daozu."

"The seventh step of the great way is indeed difficult..." Ding Huan nodded.

It would be difficult for him to deal with the Seventh Step of the Great Dao with his current strength.

Ling Zhuzhen sneered and said sarcastically, "The seventh step of the Great Dao? He is dreaming. He may never be able to step into the seventh step of the Great Dao in his lifetime."

Seeing Ling Zhuzhen's sarcastic tone, Ding Huan was a little confused.

If you are not the seventh step of the Great Dao, why would you be the Taoist Patriarch?
"He is the most unworthy Dao Ancestor in the universe. He is just a sixth-step Daoist master, but he dares to call himself the Dao Ancestor. Haha, how ridiculous."

"The Daoist Patriarch who has reached the sixth step of the Great Dao?" Ding Huan was also a little shocked.

Although he has only taken the first step on the Great Dao, he knows that the sixth step on the Great Dao is called the Dao Ancestor... well, that's the equivalent of a monkey wearing a human crown.

You are just a sixth-step Daoist master, yet you dare to call yourself the Daoist Patriarch?

If this isn't shamelessness to the extreme, then what is it?
Ling Zhuzhen said disdainfully: "In the past in the universe, even if one was at the eighth step of the Great Dao, if one was not a unique Great Dao and had ruled a world, no one would dare to call themselves the ancestor of the Dao.

Nowadays, all kinds of pigs, dogs, and caterpillars dare to call themselves the ancestors of Taoism. Sigh..."

Ding Huan was also speechless. Calling himself the ancestor of Taoism when he is at the sixth step of the Great Dao was not just thick-skinned.

Then something occurred to him: "Then Jie Jun left a mark on you? So you don't dare to leave?"

"Yes, he did leave a mark on me."

"Do you want me to help you remove it?"

"No, as long as you can help me get rid of the Chaos, I can remove the Mark myself."

"Then you follow me. Aren't you worried that this guy will come after you?"

"He doesn't dare. He is currently in Guz Saint Dao City, and he should be discussing how to deal with the Tianmeng people."

Hearing about Tianmeng, Ding Huan's heart moved, and he immediately asked: "Lao Ling, who has seriously injured you recently?"

Ling Zhuzhen sighed, his eyes flashing with desolation: "Although the various parties in the universe were fighting openly and secretly before, they were all united against the Tianmeng people."

Ding Huan heard the hidden meaning of Ling Zhuzhen's words, and asked in disbelief: "Old Ling, you are not saying that someone is secretly colluding with others to deceive people, right?"

Ling Zhuzhen nodded: "That's right, someone is secretly colluding with others. This person is also a friend of Jie Gun, I don't know her name.

But this man was going into the city with a Tianmeng person, so I naturally stopped them, because the Tianmeng person didn’t have a points card yet.

In the end, that woman slapped me and seriously injured me, hehe..."

Ding Huan sighed inwardly.

The human race has never lacked treacherous people. Many times, the human race almost perished because of treacherous people.

"Come with me." After saying that, Ding Huan directly summoned the cosmic pot and followed Gabriel into the cosmic pot. He was too lazy to go into the city.

Ling Zhuzhen stepped onto Ding Huan's cosmic pot without any hesitation.

Seeing that Ling Zhuzhen was in the cosmic pot, Ding Huan immediately drove the universe to rush to the chaos. "Fellow Daoist Ding, this side is chaos. If we go this way, there won't be many places for us to hide."

Seeing that Ding Huan was in the wrong direction, Ling Zhuzhen quickly reminded him.

Ding Huan said calmly: "Old Ling, it's not that I don't believe you. With your current strength, even if I help you get rid of the Chaos, you will only have the strength of the Evolution Realm at most.

With your strength at the Yanjie Realm, it is almost impossible to escape Jiejun's pursuit. So I plan to take you to the Chaos to recover your strength."

Ding Huan was certain that if Jie Gun dared to leave Ling Zhuzhen outside Beixingtian City like this, he would definitely not let Ling Zhuzhen escape.

Even if Ling Zhuzhen recovered to the level of Yanjie Realm, he might not be able to completely remove the mark that Jie Jun had left on him.

Not to mention that Ling Zhuzhen is unlikely to let himself investigate his avenue and help find the mark of divine consciousness.

Even if Ling Zhuzhen agreed to open the avenue for him to help, he might not be able to find the divine mark left by a sixth-step avenue expert.

Although Ding Huan despised Jie Gun, who was only at the sixth step of the Great Dao, he dared to call himself the ancestor of Dao.

He also knew in his heart that his strength in the realm of creation was not enough to face the sixth step of the Great Dao.

"Brother Ding, you really think too highly of me. My old bones were transformed in the chaos. If I enter the chaos again, wouldn't that be courting death?"

Ling Zhuzhen said helplessly.

Ding Huan chuckled: "Old Ling, you don't have to worry. Since I can take you to the chaos, I have the ability to build a cultivation space for you in the chaos.

Don't worry, you are safest only in chaos."

Ling Zhuzhen looked at Ding Huan in surprise, but did not express any objection.

He believed Ding Huan's words. After all, Ding Huan could weaken the chaos in his arm with just one slap. Even the eighth-step Dao ancestors in those days could not do this.

He himself was once a Taoist ancestor, but he couldn't do it.

"Old Ling, did Jie Ju ask you to guard the door just to insult you? No other intention?"

When Ling Zhuzhen heard this, he laughed at himself and said, "He didn't kill me because I have to give him the Dao Meridian after a while.

If you hadn't come to find me this time, I would have thought of a way to leave. Because he has destroyed my Dao meridians, if I can't get them back, I'm afraid I'll die."

Ding Huan didn't dare to ask any more questions, as this would be tantamount to exposing Ling Zhuzhen's scars. After all, he was a Taoist ancestor.

The cosmic pot was moving very fast. Just as Ding Huan was about to ask about the Tianmeng people, Ling Zhuzhen suddenly spoke:
"Brother Ding, thank you for thinking highly of me, Ling Zhuzhen. Regardless of whether my Chaos Transformation can be removed or not, I, Ling Zhuzhen, will remember your help to me."

Ding Huan waved his hand: "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."

For Ling Zhuzhen, this is not only a matter of life and death, but also a matter of whether he can embark on the path of cultivation again.

But for Ding Huan, it was really a piece of cake.

Ling Zhuzhen clasped his fists and did not continue to talk about this matter. Instead, he said:

"Friend Ding, I have something from the bottom of my heart to tell you."

"Lao Ling, you and I are friends. Besides, we both know Lao Jia, so just say whatever you want to say."

Ling Zhu said calmly, "Okay, during the great cosmic catastrophe, I hid in the chaos. Although the avenue was chaotic, my body and soul were also chaotic, but I did not gain nothing..."

Hearing this, Ding Huan also became serious.

He guessed that Ling Zhuzhen might really be speaking from the bottom of his heart.

This is the experience Ling Zhuzhen gained at the cost of his life. Telling him now will be a huge reward.

It should be that Ling Zhuzhen saw that he was going to save his life, so he told him this.

Ling Zhuzhen's tone became more serious and solemn: "I have a suggestion for you. If you have the chance, don't try to prove the fourth step of the Great Dao in the universe.

You can achieve the realm of creation here, but don’t achieve the fourth step of the great way here.”

"Why?" Ding Huan asked in surprise.

Others can attain the seventh step of the Great Dao, and even before the great cosmic catastrophe, there were people here who attained the eighth step of the Great Dao.

He can’t even prove the fourth step?
Ling Zhuzhen looked at Ding Huan:

"I suspect that the rules of heaven and earth here are still not enough for the fourth step of the Great Dao. Although I can prove the fourth step of the Great Dao here, or even the eighth step. But I still cannot break free from the shackles of the Great Dao of the Universe..."

When Ding Huan heard this, he immediately frowned.

He suddenly thought of the Dao Court opposite the Blue Star Divine Land.

All the saints in that place seemed to be false saints, some even worse than real quasi-saints.

Could it be that Ling Zhu really meant that those who tried to prove the Great Dao from the fourth to the seventh step here, and those who finally came out were all fake?
"Old Ling, do you mean that the fourth step of proving the Great Dao here is fake?"

"No, it should be true."

"Why is that?"

Ling Zhuzhen took a deep breath and said, "Because I have experienced a great catastrophe in the universe, I felt an extreme law of the universe during the catastrophe, just like..."

Ling Zhuzhen paused for a moment, and then said uncertainly after a long while:

“It’s as if we are all on the edge of a universe, and all the avenues we have attained are avenues on the edge.

I vaguely realized a cruel possibility during the cosmic catastrophe, that is, no matter how we prove the truth, we cannot escape the cosmic catastrophe..."

Ding Huan's heart was shocked.

Isn’t what Ling Zhuzhen said the realization of his attainment of enlightenment and creation of the realm of Tao?
Is this really the case?
