Chapter 171: False Heavenly Dao

The Gate of Xuanpin is exactly the true meaning of the great Dao that Lu Yan comprehended from the "Xuanpin Dharma Sutra".

After some contact with these monsters, Lu Yan gradually realized the essence of the so-called true meaning of the Tao.

The demonic way of heaven is completely different from all the ways of heaven that Lu Yan has come into contact with, and it adopts a laissez-faire management approach to the entire demon version.

If there is a layer of gauze between other versions of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, one must penetrate that layer of gauze in order to comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Then the demonic version of the great road of heaven and earth will be displayed nakedly before you, without any cover.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Yan was able to grasp the true meaning of the Xuanpin Gate after a little practice.

In fact, it is not just Lu Yan. As long as one practices the true method passed down by the gods and Buddhas, one can directly comprehend the great way of heaven and earth at the beginning of practice.

The so-called true meaning of the Great Dao is essentially a part of the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

By coming into contact with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, one will gradually evolve one's own cultivation towards the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, making oneself more in tune with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and then one will be able to borrow a portion of the Great Dao's true meaning from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

The immortality of the stitched demon, the extreme speed of the one-legged giant, the plague of the white wolf, and even the devouring of the mist insect swarm are essentially manifestations of the rules of the Tao.

This is the power at the rule level!
It is precisely because of this that the abilities they possess can be easily exerted without regard to their own level restrictions.

Lu Yan used magic to kill the stitched monster several times, but it was still difficult to break the true meaning of immortality.

The mist insect swarm uses its Qi training to devour second-level spells to drive its own evolution, and it also benefits from its devouring ability at the rule level.

Although the true meaning of the Dao they possess is only a tiny bit, the true meaning of the Dao at the rule level can ignore forces that are not much greater than their own. Killing enemies of higher levels is easy for these demons.

If they hadn't encountered Lu Yan holding the Soul Banner, these demons with magical powers would have even had a chance to surround and kill a Jindan Zhenren who fought to the death.

This would be impossible to do in the Xianxia version, as the gap between foundation building and golden elixir is so great that it is difficult to measure.

But the demons can do it, completely relying on the domineering power of rules.

Unless the level of cultivation is too high, the ability to follow rules can ignore all conventional means. The practitioners of true law and the demons in the demon version are undoubtedly powerful mechanical monsters.

"The truth of the Great Dao is indeed powerful, but it is ultimately a wrong path."

Lu Yan shook his head regretfully.

But in Lu Yan's opinion, these so-called great truths only look delicious on the surface, but actually contain poisonous fruits.

In the fairy-xia version, only after reaching the Jindan stage and the seeds of magical powers giving birth to powerful magical powers above the Disha, can one barely touch the great way of heaven and earth in the Jindan stage, and this is achieved with the help of magical powers.

If one does not have the convenience of magical powers, one needs to be a Great True Lord at least at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage in order to truly touch the great way of heaven and earth in cultivation.

And those who control the great Dao of heaven and earth have reached the level of a powerful being who has reached the level of a Divine Lord or even higher.

Even so, immortal cultivators still face the risk of backlash from the great principles of heaven and earth.

However, the practitioners of the demon version do not cultivate themselves, but actively try to be assimilated by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. This is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse and entrusting their own safety entirely to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

The demon version of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is inherently distorted and filthy. Whether it is the practitioners who practice the demon's true law or those monsters with strange appearances, they have all been more or less contaminated by the true meaning of the Great Dao.

This caused the demon practitioners to rush towards a path away from humans.

The more powerful a person is, the less he is like an ordinary person.

But even if the power is gained through one's own depravity and alienation, it is not one's own. Without self-cultivation, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth can take back the power of the perception and true meaning of the Great Dao at any time. Even if the demon has a high level of cultivation, if it cannot transcend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, it will eventually be swallowed up.

"This is a cannibalistic world!"

"But it's not just demons that eat people, there's also the Dao!"

Lu Yan couldn't help but sigh softly.

Seeing this, the Giant Spirit God couldn't help but ask:
"My Lord, you took the initiative to contact the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth in order to kill the stitching monster. Will there be any bad effects?"

Lu Yan shook his head calmly: "It's just an attempt.

I already have a foundation of cultivation, and my Supreme Dao Foundation is even more solid. With the protection of my cultivation and foundation, the pollution of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth can hardly erode me. It is just the initial contact with the true meaning of the Great Dao and it will not bring any impact.

and"

Having said that, Lu Yan paused slightly, his gaze fell on the Xuanpin Gate in his palm that was still running, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

If you want to break the true meaning of the Great Dao, you must either crush your opponent with a strength far superior to his or hers, or use a higher level of true meaning of the Great Dao.

Knowing this, Lu Yan tried to comprehend the "Xuanpin Fashujing" to deepen his understanding of the entire demon version.

The whole process was much easier than Lu Yan had imagined. Possessing the true method ranked third on the True Method List of Heaven and Earth, Lu Yan only needed to practice the true method slightly, and he was able to come into contact with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and extract a trace of the true meaning of the Great Dao from it.

The Xuanpin Gate is the mother of all things and the root of all paths, and it easily crushed that trace of immortal truth.

Lu Yan's original idea was to use his foundation-building cultivation and supreme Taoist foundation to resist the pollution of the great Dao of Heaven and Earth, but the final result was different from what he had thought before.

He was not contaminated by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, nor did he show any signs of being assimilated into the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, as if the evil intentions of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth had lost their effect on Lu Yan.

This discovery greatly surprised Lu Yan.

He was just a foundation-building cultivator, far from being able to reach the level of influencing the great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Why was it that the great Dao of Heaven and Earth, which could assimilate and devour even powerful demons, had no effect on him?

As Lu Yan's thoughts flowed, he once again recited the "Xuanpin Dharma Sutra" in an attempt to find the reason.

The great way of heaven and earth associated with the true method once again appeared before Lu Yan's eyes.

Lu Yan's consciousness suddenly sank into another world. It was an extremely huge whirlpool. Any description in words lost its meaning in front of this whirlpool.

As his consciousness sank into this place, Lu Yan seemed to have touched the source of all paths and the foundation of all laws. Everything in front of him was at Lu Yan's disposal.

In the corner of the vortex, an imperceptible tributary disappeared. It was the part of the true meaning of the Tao that Lu Yan comprehended for the first time.

Lu Yan's mind moved slightly, and he used his true method to try to cut off a small section of the tributary again and integrate it into the Xuanpin Gate.

And just as Lu Yan touched the huge vortex, the huge vortex representing the Great Dao actually slowed down the flow of the vortex, allowing Lu Yan to intercept the true meaning of the Great Dao more easily.

Such a scene made Lu Yan stunned.

"Why does this avenue seem to be surrendering voluntarily?"

The next moment, Lu Yan seemed to suddenly understand something, and an extremely strange look appeared on his face.

"He wouldn't think I was the way of heaven, would he?"
