My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 212 The Truth About the Existence of Banhu is Utterly Absurd
The reason why Banhu exists is simply because it is nominally a Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm and has obtained the Banhu rank! With this rank, Banhu can easily suppress near-Dao Immortals, and even completely kill one.

Because the position of Banhu can fundamentally suppress the position of the near-Dao Venerable.

The venerable position of the near-immortal no longer exists, and the special immortality inherent in the near-immortal realm naturally ceases to be effective.

They could only perish with resentment.

Similarly, the same effect occurs when the Banhu position is temporarily disabled. Bai Chijing's attack inflicted unimaginable damage on that withered figure.

The intertwined special power of all living beings within the Primordial Seal was one thing, but even with his power capable of creating heaven and earth and his Banhu's position temporarily suppressed, he could still withstand the influence of this power. However, when Bai Chijing made his move, he incorporated all the close-range attack techniques he had recently developed into this strike.

Among them, the method of attacking and destroying that evolved from the "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" is the most advanced.

Thus, a mental realm was born directly at the spot where the withered figure shattered, preventing the withered figure from returning to its original position. At the same time, the withered figure's Banhu position began to recover, but because the withered figure could not return to its original position, its Banhu position immediately fell into a state of stagnation as soon as it appeared.

Because everything about that withered figure had already merged with this realm of the mind.

The mental realm born from the "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" is never about domineeringly occupying or eroding and refining, but rather about sharing life and death with the other party in a strange way that benefits them.

To put it simply, it's more of a hindrance than a help.

Originally, this withered figure could have broken free without a doubt, but since he was this mental realm at this moment, as the Banhu position on his body was restored, this mental realm was directly reinforced in another way!
Naturally, reinforcing this mental realm could not have been the original intention of this Banhu position and this withered figure, but it is now a fait accompli.

And it can no longer be changed!

And so, something truly unbelievable happened.

In reality, this withered figure had not actually perished. However, at this moment, this withered figure was undoubtedly no different from one that had already perished!
Its special status as the most revered of the ancients has completely disappeared.

This sudden conflict has now come to a complete end.

It was just a single strike from beginning to end.

The higher the cultivation level, the simpler the battles tend to be. It is absolutely impossible for a battle to last for tens of thousands of years, unless one side is desperately trying to escape, or both sides are putting on an act.

Because a difference of a hair's breadth can lead to a huge error.

Even the slightest difference can have a world of difference in effect.

The moment Banhu's position failed, the opponent's near-Dao strength was inferior to Bai Chijing's, and thus he was directly defeated. If the opponent were a near-Dao immortal, he would at most be cursing and returning alive, but since he wasn't, he ended up trapping himself.

This might be a hidden danger in Banhu's position.

……

Bai Chijing's figure emerged from the void.

He was curiously observing that mental realm. Although it was a technique derived from his "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture," this mental realm was still extremely unfamiliar to him.

"The martial art you created is becoming more and more wicked!" A petite figure also emerged from the void. She had long hair and wore a light blue dress, but the sleeves of her dress were rolled up, revealing two fair and tender arms.

This is naturally Ling Jia, the first one.

She still looks the same as she did back then, with two tiny feet stepping on two things that look like wheels but aren't.

These are those two magical treasures.

However, after following Ling Jia for many years, he has undergone a complete transformation, as he has now reached the level of a treasure of constant value.

There are rare treasures, and under the premise of being personally crafted, a near-immortal can usually only possess one.

Banhu, being a being who has not reached the realm of near-immortals, is naturally the same.

At this moment, the little girl was also observing that realm of the mind. Her bright, clear eyes, black and white, seemed to be filled with amazement and a sense of eager anticipation.

Clearly, this is an attempt to refine the "Ten Greedy Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" created by that person!
Although she read and studied the Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation after regaining control of the world, she did not delve too deeply into it, since it was not her method.

But now, Ling Jia feels that switching to this method is not impossible.

After all, there had never been a case before where a near-Dao immortal could transform a Banhu being into a special world without possessing the Banhu rank, causing the Banhu to perish in an unusual way!
You know, if she had had this ability back then, she wouldn't have had to choose such a humble position out of desperation.

She had the chance to glimpse the true end of the path to immortality!
However, this was naturally a misunderstanding on the part of the little girl. Bai Chijing's "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture" did not possess such an ability. He was able to achieve this entirely thanks to that "most ancient mind in the Heaven of Knowledge".

In the instant he made his move, this ancient mind forcibly elevated Bai Chijing's power to a level similar to Banhu, but fundamentally different from Banhu's status!
Bai Chijing named it Mingzi.

Because in that instant, he had a strong feeling of transforming into chaos.

At this moment, Bai Chijing, who understood the little girl's implied meaning, thought for a moment and said, "That is not the result of my cultivation of the 'Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture'. You can take it as the effect of the 'Fierce Eyes Without Blindness Returning to One'."

"Is this all the effect of 'Fierce Eyes Without Blindness Returning to One'?" Upon hearing this, the little girl Ling Jia's face immediately showed obvious disappointment: "If this is all, then at most it has broken the monopoly of the Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm in this aspect. Is it necessary for the Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm to be so angry about this?"

She could also sense the special power that Bai Chijing had unleashed in that instant.

It was a special power, with a degree of similarity to the power of the Banhu rank.

Upon hearing the little girl's words, Bai Chijing understood that they might contain the greatest secret in the world, but he still immediately decided to avoid her.

Having heard so much about this, the only path he could choose in the future was to become Banhu.

Although Bai Chijing still doesn't know how to reach the end of the path to immortality, he has realized that what this little girl said before was not a lie. His brief state of obscurity was the true power that an immortal nearing immortality can reach at the end of this path of cultivation.

But Banhu, this is completely the wrong path!
However, at this moment, Ling Jia called out to Bai Chijing: "Now that you have the Fierce Eyes and No Blind Eyes, you can rest assured to know the details about Banhu, because the Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm can no longer affect you."

Upon seeing Bai Chijing about to leave, the little girl immediately guessed what Bai Chijing was thinking.

Upon hearing this, Bai Chijing immediately asked, "What is the Banhu Realm?"

This was what he was most curious about at the moment. "The Banhu Realm is what we who have obtained the Banhu rank call that small world. As for what that small world was originally called, no one knows, because a long time ago, there was a break in the path of cultivation, and all the peak-level beings disappeared," Ling Jia said after thinking for a moment.

She explained it in great detail.

"So, it seems there's something fishy about the Heavenly Dao of that Banhu Realm?" Bai Chijing couldn't help but say.

He had little fear of this strange world.

If he didn't know his opponent, he would have been ambushed. But now that he knows his opponent, Bai Chijing might as well unleash his full power and compete with him.

Furthermore, Bai Chijing vaguely felt that what angered the Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm might not be the return of the Fiend Eye and the Eyeless One, but rather the fact that the Fiend Eye and the Eyeless One could bring forth things like "the most ancient brain of the Knowing Profound Heaven".

And this kind of existence might be related to the truth behind the disappearance of the true name of the Banhu Realm.

After all, it was just the "most ancient brain of Zhixuan Heaven" that gave him such incredible combat power. What if he also had the most ancient fist in the void?
Could he shatter that world with a single punch?
Bai Chijing's thoughts raced.

“Many people know this, but they are helpless because they don’t have the time or energy to find out,” Ling Jia explained. At this moment, her expression was somewhat helpless, and she even sighed as she said this.

"Why?"

Bai Chijing couldn't help but press for more information.

After all, what this little girl said was quite strange.

What kind of being is Banhu that he would be unable to do so due to a lack of time and energy?
Why does this sound like you've been to a factory?

However, upon thinking of this, Bai Chijing was instantly moved. He pondered for a moment, and then continued, "Is it because Banhu exists that everyone is busy creating the world? Then what was the purpose of Banhu creating the world?"

There is a widely circulated answer to the story of Banhu creating the world: it was for his own spiritual cultivation.

But now Bai Chijing suddenly realizes that this answer should be wrong.

Upon hearing this, Ling Jia looked at Bai Chijing with great satisfaction. She hadn't expected Bai Chijing to be able to realize the problem so quickly.

Then she gave an answer that Bai Chijing never expected: "So as not to be eaten."

"Aren't you going to be eaten?"

Bai Chijing repeated it again.

This answer was completely unexpected. He had considered many possibilities, but he never imagined that the final answer would be like this.

Not to be eaten?
This is simply absurd.

"Yes, we keep creating new worlds, striving for perfection, even at the cost of our own lives, to pursue another path of creation, simply because we don't want to be eaten." As Ling Jia said this, a rare look of melancholy and self-mockery appeared on the pretty little girl's face.

"Is it the Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm?" Bai Chijing asked.

In his view, this was the only thing that could possibly devour the existence of Banhu.

"It's this despicable guy! He forced us to create the world, to build towering mountains and flatten seas, so that we could offer him a delicious meal!" The little girl showed a gritted-teeth expression when talking about the Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm.

After all, this little girl holds a grudge.

"Feeding on heaven and earth? The Heavenly Dao of this Gourd Realm must have self-awareness, right?" Bai Chijing said, and when he saw Ling Jia nod her little head, he suddenly realized and continued, "The Heavenly Dao of countless heavens and earths can't escape transforming from the Heavenly Dao to the Human Dao in the end. I'm afraid they were all influenced by the Heavenly Dao of this Gourd Realm, right?"

Although he said it as a question, Bai Chijing already had a definite answer in his heart.

Even the Heavenly Way can give rise to selfishness, which transforms into the Human Way, like a cycle that never ends. The culprit is undoubtedly the Heavenly Way of that Hu Realm.

So, what exactly is the Heavenly Dao of this Banhu Realm, or rather, the true name of the Banhu Realm?
It can bestow upon a near-immortal status like a gourd, thus allowing a near-immortal celestial being to directly wield the power to create heaven and earth, and then create countless living beings, causing this world to continuously mature.

Upon thinking of this, Bai Chijing suddenly had a sudden inspiration.

In that instant, he saw a bizarre scene: Zhi Xuantian being swallowed up by an invisible giant mouth.

Bai Chijing's eyes widened slightly.

The Great Accomplishment of the Mysterious Heaven!
The world is ripe!

This is... Zhi Xuantian is about to be served on the dinner table by the Heavenly Dao of that Hu Realm!
Bai Chijing suddenly realized what was happening. His blood and qi surged, and his near-Dao power seemed about to be shattered. This was because his impulsive act had allowed him to directly peek into the Heavenly Dao of the Banhu Realm, thus attracting the backlash from the Banhu Heavenly Dao.

However, at this moment, a conceptual power appeared on Bai Chijing.

This force was like a brain; after a moment's thought, it granted Bai Chijing an unparalleled power. At this moment, he once again felt as if he had transformed into chaos, and at the same time, the feeling that his near-Dao power had been scattered vanished.

Bai Chijing felt a long-lost feeling of shortness of breath, and it took him a while to recover. Then he looked at Ling Jia and saw that the little girl had a thoughtful look on her face.

"Was that Zhi Xuantian asking you for help just now?" Ling Jia asked.

"Probably..." Bai Chijing shook his head.

He was also unsure about this.

Because this sudden impulse could originate from within oneself or be influenced by external factors. If the Heavenly Dao of Zhixuan Heaven were still the Emperor Heavenly Venerable, then Bai Chijing could conclude that this sudden impulse was of his own making. But now that the Heavenly Realm of Zhixuan Heaven has returned to its original state, Bai Chijing could not make a direct judgment.

If a God without self-awareness were to encounter such a situation, He would surely seek help from Shirochi Kei.

Moreover, not only Bai Chijing, but any near-Dao immortal born from Zhixuan Heaven, no matter how far away from Zhixuan Heaven, will receive a distress message from Zhixuan Heaven.

As for the previous minor conflicts with Bai Chijing, the Heavenly Realm, which has no self-awareness, would not consider such factors.
