Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Chapter 483 Breakthrough, the Arrival of the Hunyuan Era
The people who came to listen to the teachings, especially those in the front row, were basically all people with great supernatural powers, and they were only half a step away from achieving the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Therefore, they listened most seriously and understood the Tao Ancestor's teachings most deeply. Various mysterious insights emerged in their minds one after another, making them involuntarily fall into enlightenment.

Even those with deep foundations, such as Emperor Fuxi, Jade Emperor Haotian, the Old Ancestor of the Styx, Zhen Yuanzi and others, could no longer control their cultivation and showed signs of breakthrough.

Their accumulation is too deep. They are among the first group of people who have cultivated great supernatural powers, that is, the half-step Hunyuan realm. They had reached this realm countless years ago.

In terms of accumulation alone, their foundation is no less than that of the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

The reason why they have not been able to break through is not because of their foundation, but because the environment of heaven and earth does not allow it.

After the ancient times, the primitive world was broken, and even after being repaired by the saints, it was no longer as good as before. As a result, the myriad ways of heaven and earth changed, and some defects appeared, which was no longer perfect, and then made cultivation increasingly difficult.

Especially in terms of breaking through Hunyuan, it has become extremely difficult. The necessary condition for breaking through Hunyuan is the perfection of the Great Dao.

However, the heaven and the earth are imperfect, and we all live between heaven and earth. How can we seek perfection?

It is precisely because of this that those powerful people who originally had the hope of becoming Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian are all stuck at the last step of breakthrough and are unable to achieve enlightenment.

But among the people, there are some who are very wise. Seeing that they cannot seek perfection from heaven and earth, they seek perfection from the outside to the inside, from themselves.

Doing so certainly provides hope for a breakthrough, but everything must be started all over again. And without a complete universe as a reference, seeking perfection within is like creating something out of nothing, which is naturally extremely difficult.

The combination of various factors has resulted in countless years passing by without anyone in the ancient world having achieved the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

But that was in the past. Now, as the Taoist Patriarch preached, the complete Dao appeared before them again. With such internal and external confirmation, they finally made up for the last defects, making themselves perfect and then launching an attack towards the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

All we can say is that they were already on the verge of a breakthrough, but they were just lacking a trigger.

Previously, the saint repaired the starry sky, and Ao Bing repaired the ancestral veins, which partially restored the prehistoric world. They also benefited from it and had already grasped the opportunity for a breakthrough.

In this situation, they relived the teachings of the Taoist Ancestor once again. All their past accumulations were triggered by the teachings of the Taoist Ancestor, which naturally led them to impact towards the realm of Hunyuan.

This is what is called the trigger. Once the opportunity comes, even if you do nothing, your body will instinctively transform towards a higher level.

"what happened?"

Ao Bing, who was immersed in enlightenment, was awakened by the aura of several people around him when they broke through because he was sitting too close to the front.

Although his realm is low, with the blessing of luck, his comprehension is extremely high, not much weaker than that of a saint.

Therefore, even though the Taoist master was talking about the Dao of Hun Yuan, he listened with great interest and did not fail to understand at all.

Judging from his performance, if he is not considered a saint, there are probably only a handful of people in the hall who can match him.

In other words, his current realm is too low. He is not a person with great supernatural powers, but only a quasi-saint with both mythical and supernatural powers. He is still far from breaking through to the Hunyuan realm.

Otherwise, he must have a place among the people who broke through together this time.

"Is this a breakthrough?"

"It's too sudden!"

"Could it be that the prehistoric world will enter the Hunyuan Era? If so, won't my advantage be gone?"

After realizing what happened, Ao Bing saw it with his own eyes and remembered it in his heart. When everyone was a great master, he could barely make it into the ranks of the top masters by relying on the luck of the Immortal Alliance.

But once the prehistoric world enters the Hunyuan era, he will probably have to withdraw from the ranks of top powerhouses.

After all, no matter how strong the Immortal Alliance's luck is, it has its limits, and it is not enough to push him into the level of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

"Fortunately, Zhen Yuanzi has also made a breakthrough. With him holding back the Styx, we don't have to worry about him heading straight for the Immortal Alliance."

First he looked at the Styx, then at Zhen Yuanzi, and Ao Bing couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

It was fine for the others to break through, but it was Minghe's breakthrough that made him the most uncomfortable. This was because he had a grudge against Minghe, and it was a grudge of life and death.

When the Styx was born, there were three great treasures accompanying it, namely the two innate killing swords Yuantu and Abi, the twelfth-grade karma fire red lotus, and the northern Xuanyuan water-controlling flag.

In the previous battle, except for the two innate killing swords of Yuantu and Abi, the other two treasures, the Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Red Lotus and the Northern Xuanyuan Water Controlling Flag, were all taken away by Ao Bing.

Ask yourself, if Ao Bing were the Minghe, he would definitely not be able to swallow this humiliation and would definitely find ways to retaliate.

In this situation, the Styx suddenly began to impact the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. If he succeeded, would it be a bad thing for Ao Bing?
Fortunately, Zhen Yuanzi also broke through. He had a great hatred with Minghe, and with him around, even if Minghe became a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, he would not dare to act recklessly.

As for the hatred between Zhen Yuanzi and Minghe, he would sabotage whatever Minghe wanted to do, regardless of whether it was beneficial to him or not.

The main point is that as long as he doesn't let Minghe take advantage, then he makes a profit.

Under this situation, if Zhen Yuanzi also cultivated to become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, Minghe would definitely not dare to kill the Immortal Alliance. He was also afraid that the Immortal Alliance and Zhen Yuanzi would join forces to suppress him in the Buzhou Ding.

Even if it was a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, the Buzhou Ding could suppress it and prevent it from coming out. This had nothing to do with the strength of the Buzhou Ding, but rather its important role.

The more powerful the Buzhou Ding is, the more obvious its role is to the prehistoric world. Now, the prehistoric world can no longer do without the Buzhou Ding.

The consequence of this is that no one can destroy it. Even if Ao Bing dies, Buzhou Ding will not be harmed.

In this way, Ao Bing only needs to push the Styx into the Buzhou Cauldron and then seal it tightly, and the next things will be easy.

The Heavenly Dao will naturally take action to strengthen the Buzhou Ding, making it impossible for the Styx to break the seal, let alone destroy the Buzhou Ding.

Although the Styx is powerful, in terms of status and importance to the prehistoric world, how can it compare to the Buzhou Cauldron?

Therefore, as long as he was sealed inside, he would not be able to come out. Even if he self-destructed, he would not be able to blow open the Buzhou Ding.

Because God won’t allow it!

"Styx, oh Styx, I hope you can behave yourself after your breakthrough. Otherwise, in order to eliminate the hidden danger, I will have no choice but to join forces with others to seal you first."

Ao Bing stared at the Styx quietly, thinking. It was not difficult to deal with the Styx, because he was in the wrong place. The Netherworld was too important, and it was the key to future development. Whether it was the Xuanmen or the Buddhist sect, if they wanted to grow and develop in the future, they had to expand into the Netherworld.

In this situation, the strongest native figure in the Netherworld, the Styx Patriarch, became a thorn in the eyes of the two major forces.

If the two religions want to occupy the Netherworld, the first thing they need to do is to remove the Netherworld's biggest overlord, the Styx. Only in this way can they later divide up the benefits of the Netherworld.

There are a total of six saints in Xuanmen and Buddhism. How can the Styx be better off being targeted by so many saints?

Even if not all of them were used, just two would be enough to seal the Styx.

Don't think that you can compete with a saint just because you have achieved a breakthrough to become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. It doesn't count like that. If you really think that a saint has achieved a breakthrough many years ago, you are just sitting around doing nothing.

If it was when the saints had just become saints, they would have been able to compete with them if they had just broken through to the level of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. But now, even if they had become Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, they would still be far behind the saints.

This is how spiritual practice works. If you are one step slower, you will be slower at every step. The crowd is more than one step slower than the saints, so it is difficult to catch up with them!

……

Minghe did not notice Ao Bing's gaze, or rather, even if he noticed it, he would not take it to heart at this moment, because he put all his energy into breaking through.

In the past, after the death of Emperor Jun and Tai Yi, he was praised as the strongest person under the saints. From this, we can know that he was recognized as the person closest to the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian at that time.

It was so in the past, and it should be so now. He wanted to be the first among the crowd to achieve the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

With this idea in mind, Minghe mobilized all his strength and began to launch the final attack on the realm of Hunyuan.

Then, he had just begun when, not far from him, the Emperor Fuxi began to show signs of enlightenment.

Emperor Fuxi succeeded in breaking through, becoming enlightened ahead of everyone else and stepping into the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

He saw that beside him, the Xiantian Bagua diagram quietly unfolded and slowly turned. As the Bagua diagram turned, eight figures with different auras took shape, standing in eight directions, each sitting in a corner of the Bagua.

"This is……"

The rest of the people who were awakened were all shocked when they saw this scene, because they had seen how Emperor Fuxi had cultivated to the Primordial Realm.

He actually used the innate eight trigrams as the foundation and condensed eight incarnations at the same time. These eight incarnations were respectively consistent with the eight origins of heaven and earth that made up the eight trigrams, namely, heaven and earth, wind and thunder, water, fire and swamp, and each of them had the realm of a great supernatural being.

The Eight Trigrams represent all things in the universe. The changes of these eight origins symbolize the evolution of the universe. All acquired changes since the creation of the heaven and earth are included in them.

Emperor Fuxi reached the pinnacle of the acquired realm and further sublimated himself, raising his realm to the level of Hunyuan.

Of course, if one wants to cultivate to become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, it is not enough to just reach that realm, one also needs powerful strength and a perfect path.

The great Dao and power of Emperor Fuxi are in these eight incarnations. All eight incarnations are great supernatural powers, that is, half-step Hunyuan. Their combined power is enough for Fuxi to break through to Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, no matter how much power he needs.

As for the complete avenue, there is even less of a lack of it. These eight incomplete avenues, when combined together, form the complete avenue of cosmic change, the innate eight trigrams.

And this is the Tao of Fuxi.

"Only the human race has the foundation to condense eight avatars of the great master level. If it were us, we could only condense three avatars of the great master level at most."

Everyone was stunned, because the energy and resources needed to condense eight great master-level incarnations were too much. Even if they were squeezed dry, they could not gather one third.

But if it were Fuxi, it would make sense. Not only did he have the strongest race in the world, the human race, behind him, but he also had the goddess Nuwa. Everyone could lack resources and luck, but he didn't.

"It is not easy to integrate the eight incarnations. The reason why the Emperor was unable to achieve enlightenment before was probably because he was unable to integrate the power of the eight incarnations."

"Now that he has the help of Daozu's teachings, it will no longer be difficult for him to merge the eight incarnations. In this way, he can naturally achieve enlightenment easily."

Just as everyone had imagined, the power of the eight incarnations intertwined together, and with the Emperor as the center, began to slowly merge, helping him to complete the final transformation and cultivate into a Hunyuan body.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened. Above the Emperor's head, the top-level innate spiritual treasure, the River Map and the Luo Shu, emerged and slowly merged together to form an innate nine-palace diagram.

What is the Nine Palaces? Adding a grid to the center of the Eight Trigrams makes it the Nine Palaces.

The eight incarnations of the Emperor represent the Xiantian Bagua. But when his body is located in the center of the Bagua, the Xiantian Bagua diagram becomes the Xiantian Jiugong Bagua diagram.

The way of the Emperor of Heaven is not as simple as the pre-natal Bagua, but is a combination of the way of the pre-natal Nine Palaces.

Nine is the number of the extreme, and the way of the innate nine palaces means to exhaust all innate changes. And the way of the innate eight trigrams means to exhaust all acquired changes.

The combination of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams means to exhaust the changes of the pre-natal and post-natal. This is the way of the Emperor of Heaven, which is very ambitious, to exhaust the changes of the pre-natal and post-natal, and thus achieve the Tao.

But considering his experience, it is not surprising to have such thoughts about him. In his previous life, the Emperor of Heaven was Emperor Xi, a congenitally divine being. In this life, he is a human being, a postnatal being.

Whether it was innate or acquired, he was an emperor. Now that he wanted to achieve enlightenment, he naturally had to exhaust all the changes of the innate and acquired to be worthy of his status.

Boom!

It was as if at the beginning of the world, when the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams intertwined, a vast universe slowly took shape and evolved according to inexplicable rules. And this universe was the fruit of Emperor Xi's Tao.

"This is……"

Looking at the universe above the Emperor's head, Ao Bing felt that it looked very familiar. Could it be that the universe of the future was the fruit of the Emperor's Tao?

Just as Ao Bing was thinking this, another person made a breakthrough. It was not Minghe, but Jade Emperor Haotian.

If there is anyone who can match or even surpass the Emperor in terms of luck and resources, it must be the Jade Emperor.

After all, he was the nominal master of the Three Realms, even the Emperor of Heaven was half a head lower than him. He had the highest status in the prehistoric world, the most blessings, and naturally had no shortage of resources.

This resulted in his foundation being far deeper than that of the Styx. Therefore, he was the second to break through, still one step ahead of the Styx.

Being strong first does not mean being strong later. The reason why Minghe fell behind this time was not because of lack of talent, but because he suffered a lot from the supreme being of heaven and earth.
