Reincarnation space, but the style is wrong

Chapter 512 I Decide to Take My Talent to Another Path

"Fellow Daoist Cang Heng, nothing will happen if you don't pry into my secrets. Why risk your life?"

On the long river of time, Chen Xingzhi sighed softly.

Fortunately, he was prepared in advance, otherwise the relationship between the Impure Old Demon and Xuanjun would have been exposed.

This was a major plan, and he absolutely could not allow any mistakes to be made.

"Fortunately, Kongming has already taken the final step. Once he takes that step, my plan will complete a crucial step."

He knew about Kongming's talent; Chen Xingzhi believed that his talent was incredibly strong.

To be able to revive the completely deteriorated Xuanjun Seven Meridians on one's own and cultivate to the peak of the seventh rank is still a rare feat, even if it is not as good as Qingfeng's advancement to the eighth rank entirely on his own.

With just a little help, his chances of advancing to the eighth rank could be greatly increased. It's also possible that he already knew the only outcome, and the process was just a formality.

As for Li Yang and Zhen Ling? These two were just brought over by Chen Xingzhi. It would be best if they could successfully advance, but if not, he would simply throw them back into the prehistoric world.

At the same time, Kongming found himself banished from the primordial world in the blink of an eye, returning to a state outside of time once again.

He had been lost outside of time for a long time, and now that he had returned to this familiar place, he was filled with emotion.

“The weak me of the past is dead,” he said to himself. “The one standing here now is a stronger me.”

He was just one step away from the eighth rank, and he could cross it at any time, which was exactly what he intended to do.

But the next moment, the astonishing wisdom inherited from the Xuanjun Temple was activated. After Kongming automatically removed the part of wisdom from his mind, he brought out the astonishing part to its extreme.

"The Patriarch must have had a deeper meaning in sending me out of the prehistoric world at this time. Could it be that he wants me not to rush into advancement, but to wait until I am fully prepared before making the advancement?"

He realized it again.

"Luckily, I remembered the patriarch's reminder, otherwise I would have regretted it if I had taken that step too early."

With that thought in mind, he immediately sat cross-legged, constantly adjusting his state, waiting for the feeling of being promoted.

This highly deceptive maneuver left Chen Xingzhi completely bewildered.

It took him several seconds to figure out Kongming's plan. He couldn't help but gasp, unsure whether he was shocked or angered by Kongming.

“Our Xuanjun Temple has inherited a lineage of extraordinary wisdom. You only inherited the extraordinary, but not the wisdom.” He covered his face with his hands in anguish. “Forget it, advancing to the eighth rank can’t be rushed. Let him figure it out slowly.”

In any case, without other eighth-order interference, time may not be linear for them.

Both he and Chen Xingzhi could afford to wait.

After paying a sliver of attention to him, Chen Xingzhi turned his gaze elsewhere.

"True Spirit's foundation is not as strong as Kongming's, so his chances of advancement are slim. But this Li Yang Si, could he really become the Li Yang Grand Venerable?"

Taking another deep breath, Chen Xingzhi's expression gradually turned serious.

Perhaps it was because of the endless calamity energy that permeated beyond time that Li Yang's entropy quiescence calamity made great progress, but this also made Chen Xingzhi feel troubled.

"I have already taken control of the road robbery, and it is of great use to me. I cannot allow another person to interfere, at least not within the Primordial World."

Li Yang also follows the path of robbery, or more accurately, it is an appendage of the path of robbery. If he truly succeeds, he will inevitably occupy a place in the path of robbery in the prehistoric world.

This forced Chen Xingzhi to engage in a philosophical debate with him.

To avoid this situation, he either has to take the initiative to switch to another path, abandoning banditry and taking the pure path of entropy and stagnation.

Either he leaves the primordial world and ventures into the void. Chen Xingzhi lowered his eyes, pondered for a moment, and pointed a finger at Li Yang.

A flash of inspiration entered Li Yang's body, containing Chen Xingzhi's insights into the Dao of Entropy Silence.

Li Yang had already reached the end of the seventh level and had his own insights into the pure Entropy Silence Dao, but compared to his Tribulation Dao, it was somewhat lacking.

“The pure path of entropy and stillness has no connection with the path of calamity.” Li Yang digested the extra information in his mind and quickly understood Chen Xingzhi’s intention.

"The path of tribulation has already been occupied by the Great Venerable. I either have to follow the pure path of entropy and silence, or go to the outer realm to break through."

He sighed and immediately rejected the second option.

His roots, his mother civilization, are still in the primordial wilderness; he has no intention of abandoning the calamity civilization to achieve enlightenment alone.

As for continuing to rob, that's no longer possible.

If he continues down this path, he will inevitably engage in a Dao struggle with the Great Venerable, and his fate will certainly be tragic.

As someone who is flexible about his bottom line, Li Yang made a decision after a little thought: "I am very familiar with the Way of Entropy Silence. I have used it to defeat many enemies. I believe that our combination will produce a very good chemical reaction."

He decided to bring his talent to the Path of Entropy and Silence, and leave the path of calamity to the Black Wind Venerable.

"With my extraordinary wisdom, with all my talent, with all the accumulation of my life, and with the Way of Entropy, let me see your limits."

He quickly immersed himself in the Dao of Entropy and began analyzing the insights Chen Xingzhi had given him, and soon discovered a problem.

"Although the Great Venerable shared his understanding and insights into the Dao of Entropy Silence with me, the saying goes, 'Those who learn from me live, those who imitate me die.' I cannot accept all of these insights wholesale, otherwise I fear I will be corrupted by the Great Venerable's Dao."

Li Yang understood this very well. He did not seek speed, but rather stability, and his understanding of the Dao of Entropy Silence continued to grow.

Time lost its meaning in the void, but fortunately, as someone who had reached the end of the seventh rank, he would not go crazy even in this environment.

Until he broke free from Chen Xingzhi's enlightenment, the Dao belonging to Li Yang suddenly descended outside of time and even spread into the void.

"My path is complete." Li Yang opened his eyes, his entire being collapsing into a point of innate, indestructible spiritual light, heading towards the source of the River of Time.

As if sensing something, Kongming, who had been sitting cross-legged for an unknown period of time, immediately opened his eyes, his extraordinary wisdom reminding him, "It's time."

So he stopped suppressing himself and took the final step.

Following the Dao of Entropy Silence, the Dao of Emptiness and Clarity also descended beyond time.

As a being born from a certain time stream in the future, Kongming's advancement also gave back to that time stream.

With the support of the gentle breeze, that time-dividing stream easily swallowed up the nearby tributaries, gradually growing into a behemoth.

This is a crucial part of Chen Xingzhi and Yunhai Dazun's plan: to cultivate the selected time stream into the main current of time, thereby completely fixing the history of the primordial world.

"Great, good things come in pairs, I didn't expect it to happen twice at once."

A soft laugh rang out, and the spiritual light that Kongming had transformed into seemed to sense something, glancing hastily towards a certain place outside of time and meeting Chen Xingzhi's gaze.

Chen Xingzhi smiled at him, then looked away and gazed at the gradually growing timeline.

While he and Grand Venerable Yunhai were satisfied, others were naturally dissatisfied, and those who were dissatisfied were already stirring with malice.

He needs to send someone to give them a warning.
