Chapter 595 The Tomb of "Heaven", Creation Dao Patterns

"Didn't the older generation tell you?"

Wu Zhuangyuan took a sip of wine, glanced at Li Wushou, and asked in return.

Li Wushou shook his head. The old beggar, whether truly exhausted or keeping an eye on Chen Gou'er, was already fast asleep, oblivious to the world around him.

Seeing this, Scholar Wu chuckled and asked again:
"You should know that this primordial tomb is the burial place of primordial spirits, right?"

Li Wushou nodded in reply:
"Of course I've heard that."

Scholar Wu asked with a smile:

"Do you know which of these innate spirits are?"

Upon hearing this, Li Wushou's expression shifted, and he exclaimed in surprise:
"you know?"

I thought this question would elicit a long-winded response from Scholar Wu.

Unexpectedly, after taking a sip of wine, Scholar Wu replied directly:

"I do not know."

Li Wushou felt a tightness in his chest and stared at Wu Zhuangyuan for a long time.

To be honest, if he hadn't felt that he might not be able to beat Wu Zhuangyuan, he would have already made his move.

Wu Zhuangyuan felt quite pleased to see Li Wushou, that scoundrel, get his comeuppance.

He had been so busy lately that he hadn't had time to teach Li Wushou a lesson, so every time he saw Li Wushou, he felt a surge of anger.

This moment did release some of that pent-up frustration.

Even the wine in the gourd seemed to taste much better.

I wish I could beat him up.

Wu Zhuangyuan couldn't help but think about it.

The two of them were in agreement on this point.

After a long exchange, and finally, after Li Wushou's repeated attempts to curry favor, Scholar Wu slowly began to introduce himself:

"To be precise, the Primordial Tomb is not only a tomb of 'spirits,' but also a tomb of 'heaven'!"

Li Wushou, who had been patiently waiting for Wu Zhuangyuan to finish his story, was astonished upon hearing this sentence and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:
"What? A piece of 'sky'?"

In Li Wushou's mind, "heaven" has always been synonymous with "heaven and earth immortals".

Is a piece of heaven buried in the Xiantian Tomb?

Doesn't that mean there's a deity buried inside?
Seeing this, Scholar Wu gently scolded:
"What are you yelling about? Do you want to listen to me or not?"

Li Wushou immediately fell silent and became completely focused.

Scholar Wu snorted coldly and said again:

"Or perhaps it is said that what is buried inside is a primitive, undeveloped 'heaven' tomb, and this 'heaven' is said to have come from an ancestral dragon."

The First Dragon was born before Heaven and Earth, residing in the chaos.

When you look out, it is daytime; when you close your eyes, it is nighttime.

They govern the yin and yang of the world, connecting life and death.

Its eyes can see into the darkest of places, where there is no sun.

After living for countless ages, the Yin and Yang within the Ancestral Dragon's body gave rise to all things and created a "Heaven," which in this world is known as the Inner Heaven of the Ultimate Path.

To enrich the inner world, the Ancestral Dragon enslaved some innate spirits, imprisoning them within the inner world to multiply and thrive.

However, for some unknown reason, this "sky" did not complete its evolution and eventually died.

Along with them, all the innate spirits also perished.

Then, someone buried him here, but no one knows who.

Although the Ancestral Dragon died, the two Creation Dao Patterns within his body remained and were buried together in the Primordial Tomb.

These two Dao patterns were born before heaven and earth, nurturing the world, and are therefore called ancestral patterns.

This is exactly what I'm looking for for Qinghe!

Li Wushou listened quietly, his heart surging with emotion.

Wu Zhuangyuan's words directly confirm the previous descriptions of "the ultimate way" and "inner world" by Wuyue Shanren.

This also gave Li Wushou much to think about. First of all, there is no doubt that the outside world and this world are inextricably linked.

Both worlds have many legends about innate spirits.

So, which came first, "Heavenly Immortal" or "Ancestral Dragon"?

Or were the two beings existing at the same time, achieving immortality through the laws of heaven and earth beyond the realm of celestial beings, and ultimately slaying the Ancestral Dragon?
But if that's the case, why was the First Emperor buried here?
Wouldn't it be better to simply destroy the body and erase all traces, severing the inheritance of the inner world?

According to Wu Zhuangyuan, the First Emperor controlled Yin and Yang, connected life and death, and almost succeeded in transforming the inner world.

Given the nature of the "Heaven and Earth Immortals" who sever all paths of cultivation across eternity, why not eliminate them completely?
And what about the old beggar?

What role did he play in it?
You should know that this tomb is hidden in the world behind the Forbidden Immortal Gate. Besides the Forbidden Immortal Gate, there is also the Reincarnation Gate. These gates have an unclear relationship with the old beggar.

Based on the old beggar's past stance, could it be that the one who buried the First Emperor was the old beggar?
Even today, Li Wushou's understanding of the old beggar continues to evolve.

Even though he had achieved great success in his Holy Body and was about to break through to the Venerable Realm, he still couldn't see the old beggar clearly, just like looking at flowers through a fog.

The other party was definitely not an ordinary deity he had previously imagined.

But every time Li Wushou tried to probe, the old beggar would change the subject.

Li Wushou had no way to deal with this.

Thinking about it now, Li Wushou also felt a headache coming on.

I have a feeling that something big is hidden inside!
On the other side, Wu Zhuangyuan, thinking that Li Wushou was quite frightened by the origin of the Xiantian Mausoleum, took a swig of wine and joked:
"This ancestral mark is a valuable item, do you want it?"

Upon hearing this, Li Wushou composed himself somewhat. These things would be clear up someday, and there was no point in thinking about them now.

Faced with Wu Zhuangyuan's question, Li Wushou replied without hesitation:

"Who wouldn't want this? But shouldn't the ancestral pattern be yin and yang? What's the point if it's separated? Let's give it to Qinghe. Just show me what the ancestral pattern looks like then."

Li Wushou's expression was sincere; these were not words he spoke against his conscience.

His body was originally engraved with the innate Dao patterns of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

He was naturally aware of the difference between a single Dao pattern and one that was gathered together.

The First Emperor controlled Yin and Yang, but ultimately fell short in his efforts to develop the inner world.

In order to help Wu Qinghe reach the pinnacle of immortality, Scholar Wu would naturally not only find one path for her.

Moreover, Li Wushou didn't really value the ancestral mark that much.

With his current mastery of the Dao, even without ancestral markings, he might not be any worse than others.

The ancestral pattern is also formed from the ancestral dragon!
Since it is condensed, its Yin-Yang and Five Elements innate Dao patterns could also evolve to this extent.

He even has an advantage over Zu Long.

After all, his Dao is numerous and evolves rapidly. If he can evolve an inner world, it will definitely be more stable than that of the Ancestral Dragon.

If they can find the ancestral pattern and study it, it will be of great benefit to Li Wushou.

If he were to actually fuse with the ancestral runes, he would feel a sense of resistance.

Even if he were given the ancestral runes, he would at most break them up and eat them to nourish his innate Dao runes.

Instead of choosing to merge!

Throughout his journey, he always harbored some doubts about what this existence left behind.

After hearing Li Wushou's answer, Wu Zhuangyuan glanced at Li Wushou again.

He had always thought Li Wushou was greedy and greedy, but at this moment he saw not a trace of greed or desire in Li Wushou's eyes.

He couldn't help but mutter to himself: This kid is really good at pretending!
Just then, Li Wushou suddenly asked:

"How do you know there must be ancestral markings here?"

Although he knew that Wu Zhuangyuan wouldn't speak without reason, Li Wushou was still somewhat curious about it.

Ancestral markings shouldn't be so easy to find, otherwise a sect like the Five Mountains Sect wouldn't be completely unaware of them, leaving not even a single word behind.

Li Wushou originally thought that Wu Zhuangyuan had learned this secret from the ancient texts of the Xiantian Shengzong and also learned how to find the ancestral mark.

Thinking that he could borrow these books to see if there was any other information about the Ancestral Dragon and the Inner World.

Unexpectedly, Scholar Wu rolled his eyes at Li Wushou and replied:
"Nonsense, I got a clue, how could I not know if it's here?"
