People in Jiejiao practice Taoism and become gods

Chapter 302 [After-sight, Eternal Nothingness] (Subscription Request)
The saints returned to the prehistoric world and immediately gathered in Yuxu Palace again, ready to deal with Luohou, but Luohou's breath disappeared into the depths of chaos, leaving no trace, and even Yuanshi Tianzun could not see him.

"He should have gone to the Chaos Origin Sea!"

Xuan Qing expressed his guess: "If I am not wrong, Yang Mei will also go to Luo Hou to seek cooperation!"

Although Luohou escaped from his hands, Xuanqing could make a rough guess based on Luohou's previous words and the direction of his escape.

A long time ago, when Xuanqing went to Luohou to discuss the mythological method and used his supernatural powers to steal Luohou's Avenue, Luohou expressed his desire for the Chaos Source Sea and wanted to cooperate with Xuanqing to find the lost companion treasure.

However, before this, when the "Earth-Opening Chisel" flew away, Xuan Qing had already glimpsed the danger hidden in the Chaos Source Sea.

That is where Pangu was born and also the place where he was resurrected.

The countless worlds around seemed to be the experiments opened up by Pangu, and those worlds were littered with the corpses and blood of many Chaos Demon Gods, as well as the fragments of Chaos Spirit Treasures destroyed by the "Axe of Creation".

That time, when Xuanqing found the fragments of the "Creation Jade Disc" from the "Qianyuan Realm" and was preparing to return, he also had the idea of ​​exploring the Chaos Source Sea.

However, sensing the crisis involved, he chose to temporarily avoid the limelight!
And this time, the Demon God of Karma was killed. Luohu and Yang Mei would certainly be like frightened birds, and would definitely not dare to approach the prehistoric world in a short period of time.

unless……

They get stronger!

In Xuanqing's opinion, the only place in the chaos that can make the two of them stronger is the Chaos Source Sea. And the immortal Yangmei has mastered the avenue of time and space. If he chooses to cooperate with Luohou, maybe he can really find the "World-Destroying Mill" and even escape from the trick left by Pangu!

At this point in time, all the saints in the ancient times need to work together to deal with Luohou, the immortal Yangmei, and those chaotic demons who may return soon. Xuanqing also told everyone present some of his speculations, hoping that everyone can be prepared.

"Then I'll wait. Why not just sit back and wait for the rabbit to come to me?"

Fuxi immediately said, "Luo Hou and Yang Mei Daxian are not people who give up easily! They both want to make Pangu Dao Fruit their own, so they will definitely return to the prehistoric world again!"

Compared with the mysterious and boundless chaos fraught with danger, Fuxi still felt that in the prehistoric world, he had a better chance of dealing with Luohou and Yangmei the Great Immortal and could obtain the blessings of the three realms of heaven, earth and man.

Among all the saints present, he, Zhunti and Zhen Yuanzi have not yet attained the status of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. Once they enter the depths of the chaotic universe, without the blessings of heaven, earth and man, their strength will be greatly reduced.

Yuanshi Tianzun had a different opinion: "How can we guard against thieves for a thousand days? Moreover, Yang Mei, that fellow, controls the avenue of time and space. If he suddenly attacks Honghuang, will we be able to react?"

Hearing this, Taiqing Laozi frowned and said, "If we take the initiative to attack the two of them, with our strength, it will be difficult to keep them both!"

Xuan Qing also nodded: "The most urgent task is to find a way to strengthen the three paths of heaven, earth and man. The more saints the prehistoric world has, the greater the chance of winning when facing Luo Hou and Yang Mei Daxian!"

As he said this, he looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and said, "Second Master, now that Hongjun has passed away, in addition to Luohou, the Heavenly Dao should be able to carry eight more saints!"

“But now, even if we include Luo Hou, there are only seven Heavenly Dao Saints!”

"I just wonder if Second Uncle, who is now in charge of Heavenly Dao, can find the remaining two primordial purple qi? Let Heavenly Dao have two more saints!"

Yuanshi Tianzun did not hide anything and said immediately: "One of them was what Hongjun threw into the prehistoric world in Zixiao Palace! That primordial purple energy fell into the human race! And not long ago, the creature with the primordial purple energy has been accepted as my disciple!"

"As for the one that Hongjun originally mastered, it disappeared without a trace when Hongjun passed away, just like the one that escaped!"

Heaven forbids perfection!

Therefore, although there are nine saints in the Heavenly Dao, under normal circumstances, only eight saints are allowed to exist. The remaining position of the Heavenly Dao saint is actually prepared by Pangu for the one who escaped.

Theoretically speaking, only the one that escaped can occupy the last holy position in the Heavenly Dao. When the true spirit of that one that escaped entrusts the Heavenly Dao, that is when the Heavenly Dao is completely complete.

After taking charge of the Heavenly Dao, Yuanshi Tianzun also gained insight into many secrets and understood why Patriarch Hongyun was unable to become a Heavenly Dao saint in the first place.
Because he is not the one who escaped!

The nine saints of heaven, the first eight could be anyone, but the last one was specially prepared by Pangu for the one who escaped.

Hong Yun is not the one who escaped. Even if he gets the "Hongmeng Purple Qi", he cannot become a saint. This is also the underlying logic of the Heavenly Dao.

On the contrary, later on, Jie Yin and Zhunti left the Heavenly Way and turned to the Earthly Way, which resulted in two more saint positions in the Heavenly Way.

Only the reincarnation of Taixuan and Hongyun, that is, Yun Zhongzi, can have the opportunity to become a saint.

"and many more!"

Xuan Qing immediately noticed something wrong: "If that's the case, in addition to the seven saints who have already been born, there is also the one on Jiang Ziya's body. The remaining primordial purple energy will automatically choose the one that escapes!"

"Hongjun took the initiative to enter extinction, and his primordial purple energy became an ownerless thing. If he left a backup plan on that primordial purple energy, and followed the cause and effect of the universe, wouldn't he be able to find the one who escaped?"

At that time, Hongjun was besieged by the saints and could not escape the fate of defeat, but if he wanted to escape, the saints might not be able to stop him.

But rather...

In that situation, he chose to enter Nirvana on his own initiative, and voluntarily sacrificed his own path and the fairyland he opened up to the prehistoric world.

Xuanqing always felt something was strange.

But now, hearing Yuanshi Tianzun talking about the underlying logic of the Way of Heaven, he vaguely guessed the reason why Hongjun voluntarily entered Nirvana.

That is, to find the one that escaped and find a way to replace it!
Just now, Xuanqing used the Avenue of Destiny and the "Eight Trigrams" to make some calculations, and found out that the disciple accepted by Yuanshi Tianzun was Jiang Ziya, who was supposed to be the one to deify the gods.

But somewhere along the line, cause and effect were confused, fate was upside down, and Jiang Ziya, who joined the Chan sect, exchanged his fate with Hongjun for some reason.

On the contrary, Hongjun is now a nothingness, just like Xuanqing, a person whose fate is nothingness, and he cannot deduce any cause and effect at all.

"interesting!"

Xuan Qing couldn't help but laugh: "I was wondering, how could Hongjun enter Nirvana for no reason?"

Hongjun's Dao fruit is not as powerful as Pangu's Dao fruit. When he sacrifices his own Dao fruit to Honghuang, his Dao will only be assimilated by Pangu's Dao.

But if Hongjun could find the missing One and replace Him before his Dao was completely assimilated by Pangu Dao, he could retain a glimmer of hope for himself under the predetermined fate!
even……

Taking this opportunity, he reduced and sought emptiness, realized the mystery of "nothingness", and in turn swallowed up Pangu's Taoist fruit, allowing himself to embark on the path of Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian.

If we say that attaining the Dao of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian is to seek "all things", which is the ultimate sublimation of the Dao, then the process of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian becoming Hunyuan Infinite Daluo Jinxian is the process from existence to non-existence.

Hongjun's reduction to seek emptiness, Luohou's sacrifice of himself and dedication of the Tao, Xuanqing's destruction and then creation, in the end, what they are actually pursuing is the "eternal nothingness".

However, in Xuanqing's opinion, that was something that would happen after many laws were perfected. The "Jade Disc of Creation" that Hongjun had previously mastered was incomplete. At this time, he should continue to accumulate his own foundation.

If you take this step before the Three Thousand Great Ways are complete, there will inevitably be flaws, and you may even end up in an irretrievable situation.

Hongjun took the initiative to disappear and chase after the one who escaped, which was undoubtedly a risky move.

It can be proved...

How could there be no risk at all?

Pangu failed in his attempt to create the universe and establish his truth, so he transformed himself into a myriad of spirits, intending to borrow the power of all living beings to take his path to a higher level.

The same is true for Hongjun. In his first life, he was a Chaos Demon God, bound by chaos and unable to see the mysteries of the Great Dao.

In his second life, he was the innate sacred Emperor Hong. He schemed against many innate gods and took control of the way of heaven. But in the end, he failed because of the backup plan left by Pangu and did not succeed in seizing Pangu's Dao fruit.

In the third life, he was the ancestor of the immortal way. He comprehended the method of beheading the three corpses and understood the way of reducing and seeking emptiness. However, the saints of the prehistoric times were unwilling to be suppressed by him.

So I challenged him!

Xuan Qing realized it later and said with a smile: "It's really interesting! I thought that without Hongjun, the future would be less fun! But I didn't expect that fellow Daoist Hongjun actually wanted to live out his fourth life! He even took the initiative to annihilate himself and join the game, just to become the one who escaped!"

"I just don't know, will the future Ninth Saint of Heaven be the one who escaped, or Daoist Hongjun who is plotting to attain enlightenment?"

In this world, there are no roads originally, but when more people walk on it, it becomes a road.

Pangu and Hongjun are undoubtedly the pioneers on this road. The path that generations of seekers of the Tao pursue is the path to enlightenment, and the method that generations of seekers of the Tao comprehend is the method to prove the Tao.

Pangu traveled the farthest.

However, Hongjun, through constant trial and error, was able to glimpse the most scenery.

He has studied Shinto, Immortal Way, and Demon Way, and has achieved extremely high attainments.

After listening to Xuan Qing's speculation, all the saints couldn't help but be shocked. Those who had faced Daozu Hongjun naturally knew how terrifying he was.

Taiqing Laozi smiled and said, "On the road to the great Dao, those who are successful come first. It is a good thing to have the Dao Ancestor Hongjun blaze a trail for us! Using Hongjun's Dao to verify our own Dao, we can avoid many detours!"

"At least……"

"We now know that when the Dao and the Heaven reach their extreme, they pursue eternal nothingness, but Hongjun's plan may not succeed!"

"If the lost one is so easy to replace, it wouldn't be called the lost one!"

Although Taiqing Laozi attained enlightenment late, his understanding of the Great Dao was extremely profound. Before he attained enlightenment as the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, he had already comprehended the "Eighty-one Transformations of the Supreme" and opened up a separate timeline, enabling himself to evolve into the combat power of several saints.

Once he attained enlightenment, he went a very long way on the path of becoming equal to the Tao and Heaven.

Only slightly slower than Xuanqing!

Hou Tu interrupted the discussion and said, "Now, let's continue talking about Luo Hou and Yang Mei! Even if Hong Jun can replace the one who escaped, he will not be able to return within the next few hundred epochs!"

At the current point in time, Luohu and Yangmei Daxian still pose the greatest threat to the prehistoric world, followed by the Chaos Demons who have not yet returned.

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun immediately said: "The Heavenly Saint has already made a conclusion. The most urgent task is to find a way to strengthen the Earthly Dao and the Human Dao!"

"There are six saints in the tunnel now, including Fellow Daoist Hou Tu, Fellow Daoist Jie Yin, Fellow Daoist Zhun Ti, Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuan Zi, Fellow Daoist Ming He, and Fellow Daoist Yuan Feng. As for the remaining two saints, does Fellow Daoist Hou Tu have any ideas?"

Although the underground tunnel is on the same level as the heavenly tunnel, it can only accommodate eight saints at most. After Yuan Feng took refuge in the underground tunnel, there were only two saints left.

Hou Tu thought for a moment, glanced at Xuan Qing again, and slowly said, "I still have a portion of the Chaos Origin of the Lava Demonic Path in my hand. After Zhu Rong digests it, he will be able to occupy a Saint position!"

In fact, if Xuanqing had not replaced Zhurong for several epochs, Zhurong might have already become a true saint!
only……

Since Zhu Jiuyin had said that all past causes and consequences should be written off, she would not bother with Xuanqing!

Yuanshi Tianzun showed a hint of understanding: "That means there is another saint! In this case, why don't I recommend someone?"

"Who?"

Hou Tu could not help but frowned: "The underground will not recognize ordinary existences. Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, are you going to recommend your disciples?"

"No, no!"

Yuanshi Tianzun shook his head and said, "I am talking about Shi Qilin. He is already a perfect Hunyuan Jinxian. In addition, he is good at Wu Tu Dao. He is definitely the most suitable existence among all the great powers!"

"This……"

Hou Tu hesitated for a moment.

She knew that Shi Qilin was indeed the most authentic great supernatural being, but he had a very deep cause and effect relationship with Yuanshi Tianzun.

Yuanshi Tianzun's move was undoubtedly to plant spies from the Heavenly Dao in the underground camp.

But she just couldn't refuse!
The underground way is not like the heavenly way. There is a holy place reserved for the one who escapes.

As long as the tunnel is complete, her power will be greatly enhanced.

Even more, if she were to be in harmony with the earth, the power she possessed would be even greater than that of Yuanshi Tianzun today, and would be enough to compete with the Honghuang Tiandao.

"Can!"

After thinking about it, Hou Tu agreed. The tunnel was completed first. For her, the benefits outweighed the disadvantages and it could gain more power for the Wu clan.

It was the Taoist Jie Yin who suddenly said, "I have already attained the status of Hun Yuan Daluo Jin Xian, a genuine saint. It is really useless to me now. I am going to give it to Ksitigarbha!"

Compared to Taoism, Buddhism is still too weak. Although they have a portion of the Chaos Origin belonging to the Light Demon God in their hands, the pharmacist cannot digest it in a short period of time.

As for Ksitigarbha, as a direct disciple of Buddhism, he has saved hundreds of souls in the underworld. Naturally, Jie Yin wants to get an opportunity for him.

However, Ksitigarbha made a great vow that he would not become a Buddha until hell is empty. If he is to take over the position of an authentic saint from the Taoist Jie Yin, Yuanshi Tianzun and Hou Tu will need to help him.

There is no other reason!

When Dizang made his ambition, he asked the Heavenly Dao to bear witness to it, and his ambition was related to the underworld controlled by Hou Tu.

If Yuanshi Tianzun disagrees, he will face some backlash even if he wants to find a loophole.

And if Houtu disagrees, he won't even have the chance to find a loophole. Isn't it up to the saint Houtu to decide whether hell is empty or not?

"Can!"

Yuanshi Tianzun did not refuse. Having one more saint in the ancient times would give them more confidence in facing future crises.

As for the growth of Buddhism...

As the Lord of Heaven, overlooking billions of living beings, he still has this vision.

Hou Tu thought about it and did not refuse. She nodded immediately and said, "Since Daoist Jie Yin has this idea, I am willing to fulfill it!"

"That guy Jizo is very tenacious, and he is indeed a man of great perseverance!"
