I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 424 The place of enlightenment!

The ruins of the world were formed by the fall of many celestial realms including Haoting Xiaodutian, Wusijiang Youtian, Shangshao Ruan Letian, Wuji Tanshitian and others into the myriad realms.

Because of the ancient battle in heaven, which involved the confrontation between many supreme beings in the fourteen realms, these heavenly realms spanned many time and space, and many worlds had passages connecting to the ruins of the world.

After leaving the Buddhist world, Jiangchuan came to the White Elephant World, which is closest to the Buddhist world leading to the world ruins.

The White Elephant Realm is the ancestral land of the six-tusked white elephant clan, which had taken refuge in the Buddhist world in ancient times.

Even the mount of the future Star King Buddha is a six-tusked white elephant, which is enough to illustrate the status of this clan in the Buddhist world.

Following the map of Baoyu Miaoshan Bodhisattva, Jiangchuan flew into the dark crack in the sky of the White Elephant Realm.

After traveling through the void passage in the crack for half a day, Jiang Chuan finally arrived at Jiexu.

When he arrived at Jiexu, what caught Jiangchuan's eyes were the divine islands floating in the sky.

The islands float above the sea of ​​clouds, as if sacred and majestic heavenly palaces are sitting on them.

These heavenly palaces are either magnificent and golden, or inlaid with pearls, or shining with colorful light.

Countless cranes dance and fly through the sea of ​​clouds, singing loudly; fairies dressed in silk and satin, holding magical herbs in their hands, shuttle between pavilions and towers.

It seemed as if this was not the ruins of the world, but the real heaven where the gods of heaven once lived.

"This area of ​​immortal residence is inhabited by the surviving gods and immortals of heaven and their descendants after the fall of the heavens. They generally will not attack cultivators who want to enter the ruins of the world, but it is best not to conflict with them." After glancing at the map, Jiang Chuan determined the direction, and then used the Thousand Starlight Escape to go deep into the ruins of the world.

"The innate spiritual energy is not much weaker than that of the Buddhist world. This group of surviving gods have found a good place for themselves." Ancestor Ziyun looked around with his big eyes.

"What kind of place is this? It's just a place where people can survive."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chuan saw an auspicious cloud coming towards him.

A man in green stood on the auspicious clouds.

The man had disheveled hair and was holding a wine gourd, pouring wine into his mouth continuously. He looked like a scholar who loved drinking among ordinary people.

"The real good place is the heaven! No, now it should be called the fairyland!"

After the man finished speaking, he laughed out loud, his laughter full of sarcasm.

"The Demon King and the Heaven Beyond Heaven killed the Heavenly Emperor, but ended up making wedding dresses for the Taoist Taixu! The Heaven Realm belongs to him! The Ten Thousand Dao Tree belongs to him! You got nothing! You got nothing! Hahahaha!"

"Immortal Ancestor."

Jiang Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

When talking about the ancient battle in heaven, the first thing that everyone thinks of is the Emperor of Heaven and the Demon King.

Taiyi Daojun, the Lord of the Heaven Beyond Heaven, his junior sister Yuluo Zhenren, as well as Qingdi, Yongheng Emperor and other beings will also be remembered.

The Immortal Ancestor Taixu Daojun was hardly ever mentioned during the ancient wars.

But after hearing what the man in green said, Jiang Chuan realized how terrifying the Immortal Ancestor Taixu Daojun was!
There is still the Ninth Heaven Realm left, and the Ten Thousand Dao Tree, the treasure that helped the Emperor of Heaven to condense thirty-three Dao Fruits, is now in his hands!

"The Demon King is dead!"

The man in green pointed at the sky, his eyes full of hatred.

"Taiyi! Yuluo! Fenghe! You helped the Demon Emperor destroy the Heavenly Court! When the Emperor of Heaven returns, he will surely destroy your Heavenly World! Let all of you, who have been swallowed up for billions of years, be reduced to ashes!"

"Can the Emperor of Heaven return?"

Rabbit asked, "Although the Green Emperor is still alive, the fate of the Dark Emperor and the Eternal Emperor remains a mystery. With the Dragon Ancestor and Phoenix Mother participating in the battle in Heaven, plus the three Fourteenth Realm beings from the Heavenly Outer Realm, it's impossible for the Heavenly Emperor to return, right?"

"Normally, there are two ways for the supreme beings of the Fourteen Realms to return. Facing the supreme beings of the Fourteen Realms, no matter which way you take, it is impossible to do it. But the Supreme Divine Art of Crossing the Endless Cycle of Time and Space, Life and Death, and Tribulations created by the Eternal Emperor, the Hades Emperor, and the Blue Emperor makes the return of the Emperor of Heaven possible." The eyes of the man in green were full of expectation.

Jiang Chuan clasped his fists and asked, "May I ask fellow Daoist what the two paths to the return of the Supreme Divine Art of Transcending the Endless Cycle of Time, Space, Life, and Death, and the Fourteenth Realm Supreme Being are?"

"The Supreme Divine Art of Crossing the Endless Cycle of Time, Space, Life and Death is to cut off..."

The man in green stopped talking abruptly. His eyes widened in anger as he roared, "I won't tell anyone! Don't even think about using this magical power to target the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor! Don't even think about it!"

"Fellow Daoist, I am not."

Jiang Chuan was about to open his mouth to explain when the tall body of the man in green smashed through the void and disappeared from his sight.

"If that thing called "crossing something and something" could be hidden from the Supreme Being of the Fourteenth Realm, the Emperor of Heaven would have returned long ago."

Rabbit obviously didn't believe that there was any way to hide it from the supreme being of the Fourteenth Realm.

Jiang Chuan frowned slightly and kept thinking.

"Rabbit, what are the other two paths?"

"One of them should be a normal reincarnation. But this path is just like the reincarnation of immortals and Buddhas. As long as you overcome the tribulation, the heavenly way will pull the power of cause and effect and destiny, and the cause and effect of your past and present lives will be triggered."

The rabbit replied, "A cultivator of the Eleventh Realm facing a Supreme Being of the Fourteenth Realm would undoubtedly die. I'm not sure about the other path, but I doubt it would be much stronger, otherwise the Green Emperor and his people wouldn't have created that divine art."

"What do you think of the magic that Qingdi and his group created, and what are the principles behind it? How can they hide it from the supreme beings in the Fourteenth Realm?" Jiang Chuan's eyes kept flashing.

[Ancestor Ziyun answered you, believing that this divine art must involve how to sever or obscure cause and effect fate.]

[Thinking of what Ziyun Patriarch had said about the future Star King Buddha, I'm used to making decisions after careful planning.]

[Do you think that if the future Constellation King Buddha really dies, the Great Sun Divine Bell, the Arrow of the Other Shore, and other treasures will be treasures left behind for his return?]

[Then it is very likely that the future Star King Buddha has obtained the "Supreme Divine Art of Transcending the Endless Cycle of Reincarnation, Time, Space, Life, and Death."]

[You think that if you could obtain this divine art, you might understand the true plan of the future Star King Buddha.]

[Thinking of this, you decide to return to the Qingyuan Realm and visit Taoist Yuan Heng and the Eternal Demon Lord, who may have obtained this divine art.]

Follow the map given by Baoyu Miaoshan Bodhisattva and continue to go deeper into the ruins.

[After passing through the relatively safe edge of Shenxianju, you enter the outer area of ​​Jiexu.]

[The outer perimeter of the Jiexu is divided into several areas, most of which are named after the tombs of former gods, immortals, and Buddhas, or the thirteen realms of peerless celestial demons.]

[These areas are either special regions formed by the integration of Dao Fruit into heaven and earth, or they are the resentment of wandering gods and demons, and their undying fighting spirit.]

【Follow the map and choose to go through Tianya Palace.】

[Tianya Palace is the palace of Tianya God, the former deputy commander of the Tianhe Navy of the Heavenly Court.]

After his death in battle, his Dao Fruit did not merge with the world. Because of his arrogant nature, he disdained to attack weak cultivators. Even the heavenly soldiers and generals roaming around Tianya Palace disdained to attack weak cultivators.

[As long as you restrain your aura and suppress it to below the eleventh level, you can safely pass through Tianya Palace.]

[Follow the instructions on the map, gather your aura, and fly into Tianya Palace.]

[As soon as you enter the Tianya Palace area, you notice the resentment and undying fighting spirit of many immortals, their gazes fixed on the rabbit on your shoulder, Huangyun, and Ziyun Patriarch.]

You sense the murderous intent within, thinking it's not good, and prepare to attack. But soon, the resentment and undying fighting spirit of these immortals avert their gaze.

[Rabbit, Purple Cloud Patriarch, and Phoenix Cloud all breathed a sigh of relief.]

[Dozens or even hundreds of immortals harbor resentment and undying fighting spirit. If they attack together, it will be difficult for them to escape.]

[You probably think the rabbits are your spirit beasts. Although the Celestial Court is hostile to the demon race, many gods and immortals subdue demons as mounts, using them as spirit beasts to guard the mountains and lakes.]

After safely passing through Tianya Palace, you arrived at the Sea of ​​Death.

Although it's called the Sea of ​​Death, it's not actually a sea. Instead, it's the result of the resentment, death, and evil spirits emanating from the dead gods and demons, forming a rolling sea of ​​clouds, hence the name.

[In the Sea of ​​Death, there are countless wandering corpses and evil spirits formed by resentment. It is unknown where these beings will wander to.]

[To pass through this area, besides strength, luck is also a must.]

[You are very confident in your own strength, and using the Great Sun God Bell to protect yourself, you enter the Sea of ​​Death.]

[Not long after entering the Sea of ​​Death, you encountered the corpse of an Immortal King.]

[After smashing the Immortal King's corpse with ten moves, you continue on your journey.]

[But perhaps it was because the noise you made earlier, fighting the Immortal King's corpse, was too loud, you noticed corpses and evil spirits constantly converging towards you.]

[Faced with the onrushing corpses and evil spirits, you activate the Great Sun Divine Bell to inflict a devastating blow.]

[One corpse after another, evil spirits, were instantly killed and turned into dust.]

[You swept through the sea of ​​death, sweeping away the corpses and evil spirits, ultimately attracting the remains of a Thirteenth Realm Black Tortoise.]

[The tortoise shell of this Black Tortoise remains shattered, leaving only half its body, but it still displays terrifying power.]

[In your perception, this single Black Tortoise corpse alone is even more powerful than the Wild Halberd Sky Demon King and the Giant Spirit Sky Demon King combined.]

[Use all your strength to fight this Thirteenth Realm Black Tortoise corpse.]

After three thousand blows, you start to have a headache because you realize that no matter how you fight, even if you smash the Xuanwu corpse into pieces again and again.

As long as you fail to destroy the Thirteenth Realm Black Tortoise's remains, it will reassemble itself and fight you once again. Even with the addition of the rabbit, and using the Great Sun Divine Bell with all your might, your limit is barely a strike comparable to that of an Immortal Emperor.

[The demon race is famous for its physical bodies. The physical bodies of the Thirteenth Realm Heavenly Demons are not inferior to those of the Immortal Emperor's weapons.]

[You estimate that it would take at least hundreds or thousands of years to destroy the physical body of this Thirteenth Realm Black Tortoise.]

[After a moment's thought, you choose to flee from here and no longer fight this Black Tortoise.]

[Since the ruins of the world were formed by the collapse of space and time by the falling of many celestial realms, you dare not use the shrinking earth into an inch and use your full strength to activate the Thousand Starlight Escape.]

[Now your Way of Time is only a hair's breadth away from the seventh level of the Twelfth Realm. With your full strength, you quickly cast off the remains of the Thirteenth Realm Black Tortoise and fly out of the Sea of ​​Death.]

"Is this the core area of ​​Jiexu?"

Jiangchuan looked into the distance, and what came into view was a world floating in the dark void.

The densely packed worlds are scattered in the void like sesame seeds. Some of these worlds are desolate, some worlds have palaces built with seven treasures of fairy jade shining with divine light, and some worlds are full of bones.

True immortals, immortal kings, Buddhas, and demon kings are constantly traveling between the worlds.

"Even the principles of this place have collapsed and been reassembled and changed. No wonder it can cause the fall of the Immortal Emperor!"

Ancestor Ziyun was horrified: "Why don't we not go in!"

Looking closely, there are countless densely packed laws intertwined and entangled around these worlds, like a big net, or like a group of moving pythons.

"Since we're here, how can we be willing to go back without going in to take a look?" Jiang Chuan smiled and flew towards the core area.

Just like Jiangchuan's way of time and way of void.

If these two great ways are taken separately, they may not necessarily have an advantage over the Way of Destruction and the Way of Nothingness.

But when the two great ways are combined together, Jiang Chuan can defeat many beings with higher realms than him!
Before he became an immortal, he could activate the way of time and space to make the time and space where the Night Blade Demon Lord of the Eleventh Realm and the Hunting God Demon King were located stagnate.

Now that he was using the power of time and space, the Demon King Huang Ji and the Demon King Ju Ling couldn't even resist and had to suppress him.

This is just a combination of the Way of Time and the Way of the Void.

The core area of ​​the entire world may contain dozens or hundreds of new avenues composed of avenue combinations.

Faced with such a new Dao principle, even a true Immortal Emperor must take it seriously!

"Jiangchuan, if you have the opportunity to reach the Fourteenth Realm in the future, this place may be able to help you achieve enlightenment."

The rabbit raised its snow-white paw and pointed to a twelve-colored light composed of many principles not far away.

"I sensed within these Dao principles a power of the Great Dao that is unlike any other innate Great Dao. In the final analysis, an innate spiritual treasure is a treasure born from the interaction of the Great Dao and the power of the origin of the world."

"Countless Dao principles will combine here, and will surely give rise to acquired Dao principles like the Immortal Dao, the Buddhist Dao, and the Demonic Dao. If you then alter the Dao principles here, transforming them all into one of those acquired Dao principles and combining them with the origin of the heavens, you might be able to create an innate spiritual treasure like the Immortal Refining Pot or the Taishitian Demon Seal."

Jiang Chuan touched his chin. "It's certainly possible in theory, but it's something we can all think of. Do you think those supreme beings in the Fourteenth Realm can't think of it?"

Rabbit was slightly stunned, and then his pupils shrank: "You mean, the ruins of the world is actually the place where a supreme being refines treasures?"

"Maybe, maybe not, who knows?"

Jiang Chuan took out a map and said, "According to the map, Baoyu Miaoshan Bodhisattva wants to explore the Lingkong Palace of Lingkong Divine Venerable, the youngest disciple of the Qiongcang Emperor. She and Lingkong Divine Venerable both practice the Way of Nature. If she can obtain Lingkong Divine Venerable's scriptures and magical powers, or his remaining soldiers, she may be able to break through that barrier and become a powerful person in the Thirteenth Realm."

"She actually practices the Way of Nature?"

Rabbit was very surprised: "This is a very difficult breakthrough. In my opinion, even if she found the complete Dao Fruit of Lingkong Divine Venerable, it would probably be difficult to break through."

Mountains, rivers, plants and wild animals are all part of nature.

If the Way of Nature wants to break through to the thirteenth realm, it must evolve true life with its own great way.

This is close to creation!

"The great way is difficult to follow. Even if I were given the Dao Fruit of the future Star Lord Buddha, would I be able to cultivate to the Fourteenth Realm?"

Jiang Chuan didn't care. After all, other people's fruits of the Tao could only be used as a reference.

Three days later, Jiang Chuan passed through layers of obstacles, relied on the Great Sun God Bell to withstand dozens of attacks from the Mutated Combination Avenue, and came to the world where the Lingkong God Palace was located.

The palace of Lingkong God is the same as that of Huiming Immortal Emperor, both are built with seven-treasure fairy jade, sacred and majestic.

Unlike the Immortal Emperor Huiming, the palace of the God of Lingkong is surrounded by the Immortal Emperor Formation.

The golden array patterns looked like sleeping real dragons lying on the earth, emitting the mighty power of the Immortal Emperor, which made people tremble with fear.

Ancestor Ziyun’s hair was about to explode.

"Jiangchuan! This is the Immortal Emperor Formation. Even if it's in a broken state, we can't break through it. Forget about that bitch named Yu! Let's go!"

"Normally, it's difficult to break into a place like this. But don't forget what I have."

As Jiang Chuan spoke, he activated the Qiong Cang Dao Tree in the Dao Fruit, releasing the Qiong Cang Dao Tree's aura.

hum!hum!hum!
Sensing the breath of the Sky Dao Tree, the palace of Lingkong Shenzun was like an almighty god awakening from his deep sleep, emitting billions of divine lights, directly illuminating the core area of ​​the world.

The immortals, Buddhas, gods and demons who were exploring the core area of ​​the world were alarmed.

"Such power, has an Immortal Emperor soldier appeared?!"

"Could it be that the divine treasure of Lingkong Divine Lord has appeared in this direction?!"

"The divine treasure of the third disciple of the Great Emperor Qiong Cang has been revealed! What a blessing!"

The overwhelming divine light, like a rolling wave, transformed into an incomparably brilliant divine light and fell in front of Jiang Chuan.

The four mythical beasts, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise, emerged from both sides of the divine light.

The clouds in the sky were hanging down, as if cheering for Jiang Chuan's arrival.

Thousands of rays of light and auspicious colors are hanging down from the sky, as if the heaven and earth are welcoming Jiangchuan.

"Even when the Immortal Emperor came, there was no such strange phenomenon. They are welcoming you as the Emperor of the Sky!" The rabbit widened his eyes.

"The Qiong Cang Dao Tree is my life-saving magic weapon, so I am naturally the Qiong Cang Emperor."

Jiang Chuan took a step forward and landed on the divine light.

The divine light carried Jiangchuan into the palace of Lingkong God. As soon as he entered the palace, Jiangchuan saw a woman wearing cotton monk's clothes.

There was no difference between the woman and the White Jade Miaoshan Bodhisattva. The only difference was that there was a nine-colored light blooming between her eyebrows.

It was the Baoyu Miaoshan Bodhisattva he was looking for!

Baoyu Miaoshan Bodhisattva was now trapped in an Immortal Emperor formation, and the mountains, rivers and streams evolved from the Immortal Emperor formation enveloped her.

The Buddha's light in front of her was dim, like a candle in a rainy night, and it seemed that it would go out at any time.

Noticing Jiangchuan's arrival, Baoyu Miaoshan Bodhisattva suddenly raised her head.

But the speed of the divine light is too fast!

It was so fast that it seemed to be able to penetrate time and space. In a tenth of a second, it took Jiang Chuan away from this hall and into another hall.

After passing through several halls, Jiangchuan arrived at the hall in the deepest part of the shrine.

Vines grow wildly in front of the hall, like a green corridor stretching across the hall.

Walking into the main hall, Jiangchuan's eyes were filled with the fragrance of books.

Rows of mahogany bookshelves, stacked layer upon layer, are filled with various scriptures and books.

In the middle of the bookshelf, there is an antique desk.

An inkstone, brushes and rice paper are placed on the quaint desk, as if waiting for the owner to write.

But sitting behind the desk, the Lingkong God, who had turned into a pile of white bones, could no longer write.

The bones of the Lingkong God are pure white, with emerald green Taoist patterns imprinted on them, emitting a terrifying divine power.

Inside this white skeleton, there is also a pitch-black axe.

Although the axe is huge, strangely enough, it gives people a sense of beauty, as if it is the most perfect creation of God.

The only flaw was that there was a huge gap on the axe blade.

"What a blessing! Jiangchuan! What a blessing!"

Patriarch Ziyun jumped to the desk, extremely excited. "The divine bones of the Lingkong God, plus the Immortal Emperor weapons he forged with Dayan Dao Copper. If they are refined again, they can be refined into Immortal Emperor Swords, and even four or five Immortal Emperor Swords can be refined!"

Jiang Chuan came to the wooden table, looked at the Lingkong Natural Creation Sutra and the cave token on the table, and nodded: "The entire wealth of a Thirteenth Realm Divine Lord is indeed a great fortune."
