I start by marrying Yunxiao, who's in a vegetative state; I'm invincible in the primor

Longevity Hill, a sea of ​​clouds in the void.

The illusory image of Yuanshi Tianzun had an iron-black face.

Zhen Yuanzi was originally a virtuous immortal, but now he has become a wicked person who does not know the will of Heaven, acts against the natural order, and has little fortune!

Damn it! Absolutely damn it!

The Primordial Celestial Venerable said in a deep voice, "I'll give you one last chance!"

"Abandon darkness and embrace the light!"

Zhen Yuanzi didn't care at all.

A moral paragon? Let whoever wants to be one, be one!

Hasn't Zhen Yuanzi learned his lesson yet?

Brother Hongyun was a kind-hearted and helpful man throughout his life, but what was his fate?

Surrounded and attacked, he self-destructed his primordial spirit!

They were lucky to have a sliver of hope!

Therefore, Zhen Yuanzi understood a principle!

In the primordial world, good people will die, or be tricked to death.

Stupid people die too; they die from stupidity.

In a world of great strife, to not fight is to die!

Zhen Yuanzi remained steadfast in his decision to stand with his sworn brother Li Yu!

Even in the face of fierce winds and torrential rain, we must stand together through thick and thin!

"snort!"

Yuanshi Tianzun gave a cold rebuke and turned to leave!

A mere lamp can't make a ripple!

The immortals of the Chan Sect also uttered harsh words and left in a sorry state!

Yuanshi Tianzun did not return to Kunlun Mountain.

Instead, they went to the Bajing Palace on Shouyang Mountain.

"Brother!"

"If Zhen Yuanzi is not eliminated, the grand plan of the Investiture of the Gods will surely be jeopardized!"

"The Earth Book Array shouldn't even exist!"

Taiqing Laozi sat quietly on the futon, his face as calm as still water.

"Second brother, look, he's in a hurry again."

"Why are we wary of the Earth Book Formation?"

"Because the Earth Book Formation can connect mountains, rivers and seas, once it is broken, the mountains, rivers and seas will collapse and attract karma."

"What if Zhen Yuanzi's earth membrane can no longer connect mountains, rivers, and seas?"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable was taken aback for a moment, "That's nothing to worry about, I can destroy it with a wave of my hand."

A glint of light flashed in Taiqing Laozi's eyes, his face expressionless. "This brat Li Yu is using the Earth Book Formation as one of his trump cards in the Investiture of the Gods. My temporary inaction is to relax and lull him into a false sense of security!"

"When the final battle of the Investiture of the Gods begins, Li Yu, full of hope, unleashes the Earth Book Formation, only to suddenly discover that it is no longer effective. What will happen then?"

"Panic!"

Yuanshi Tianzun pondered for a moment, then asked, "Elder brother, do you have a way to deal with the Earth Book Formation?"

Taiqing Laozi said calmly, "When things reach their extreme, they will reverse; the universe is in balance; there is no unchanging defense in the world."

Taiqing Laozi suddenly changed the subject, "What I truly fear is another formation in Li Yu's possession."

The Primordial Celestial Venerable frowned, naturally knowing what his elder brother meant.

That scoundrel Li Yu also possesses an incredibly profound array.

That formation seemed to contain the power of yin and yang balance.

Even the Dao Ancestor himself struggled to break the formation.

The Earth Book Formation is nothing to worry about, but we need to figure out how to break Li Yu's formation!

Taiqing Laozi said in a deep voice, "We need to make two preparations next. Go back and think about it carefully first."

"Yes, elder brother."

After Yuanshi Tianzun left.

Laozi of Taiqing sat quietly on a futon, surrounded by the aura of Taiqing Taoism, his spirit wandering beyond the heavens.

……

at the same time.

Longevity Hill, Wuzhuang Temple.

Tears streamed down Ran Deng's face uncontrollably. "Great Immortal Zhenyuan, what merit do I, a humble Daoist, possess?"

"Even the Great Immortal was willing to offend the Jade Purity Saint to protect this humble path."

"Waaaaah... I, Ran Deng... am truly beyond redemption even if I die a hundred times."

Zhen Yuanzi waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.

Firstly, since the lamp was brought back by Gongming, Zhen Yuanzi naturally had to protect it.

Secondly, Zhen Yuanzi was on the same side as the human race, while he had long been an enemy of Yuanshi Tianzun.

Even a cat or dog wouldn't be able to please the Chan Sect!

"Fellow Daoist Ran Deng, do you remember what I said?"

"If there's even a glimmer of hope, it must lie with the First Emperor!"

Ran Deng nodded emphatically. "Great Immortal, what do you mean?"

"Go and pay your respects to the First Emperor."

"Okay! I'll listen to the master."

then!

Zhen Yuanzi took Ran Deng to the ancestral land of the human race.

A thatched cottage in a small courtyard.

Li Yu and Yunxiao are in meditation.

The path of dual cultivation aligns with the Great Dao of Yin and Yang, and the natural order of Heaven and Earth.

The joy is endless.

After the dual cultivation ended, a gentle breeze blew, making it cool and pleasant.

Warm a pot of tea for enlightenment, and drink it to calm your mind and spirit.

Life here is absolutely wonderful.

Outside the courtyard.

Zhen Yuanzi's hearty laughter rang out.

"It seems I've arrived at just the right time." Zhen Yuanzi had already smelled the aroma of tea.

"Brother Zhenyuan, please come in quickly."

"My dear brother."

Li Yu and Zhen Yuanzi were true sworn brothers.

Emperor Lieshan and Zhen Yuanzi entered the courtyard together. "Brother Emperor."

"Please sit down."

Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun*Earth Emperor took their seats.

Ran Deng stood to the side, as reserved as a child.

Li Yu glanced at Ran Deng, 'This unlucky scapegoat has arrived too.'

"Fellow Daoist Ran Deng, please have a seat as well."

Ran Deng immediately bowed deeply, "Yes! This humble Taoist will obey the First Emperor's decree."

The lamp-lighter is still adept at interpersonal relationships and social interactions.

Zhen Yuanzi finished his cup of tea. "Brother, why is Fellow Daoist Randeng so adept at everything yet so carefree?"

"You've been cultivating for quite some time now, so why are you still stuck at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm?"

His aptitude and background were both excellent, and he had mastered countless Taoist teachings, reciting them fluently.

He knows a little bit of everything, but he can't get anything done.

When Ran Deng heard that he was being talked about, he suddenly sat up straight.

His body was ramrod straight, and he only dared to sit on half of his buttocks, looking respectful and obedient.

Li Yu smiled calmly, "There are three thousand laws, but in essence they all lead to the same goal: the supreme Dao."

Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun*Earth Emperor deeply agreed, "Indeed, the essence of cultivation is the same, all leading to the supreme Dao."

"Then why can't the lamp be repaired?"

Li Yu explained, "That's true, but we must analyze each case specifically."

"Oh?"

Randeng listened intently. The First Emperor only said two simple sentences, but Randeng felt as if something had been torn apart!

Mist!

Yes! The fog on the road ahead!

broken!

That's not right either! It's not broken!

It looks broken but isn't!

It looks like it could break if you put too much force on it.

Burning Lamp tried his best to comprehend and break through, but he could never understand it or break through it!

Then he saw Randeng kneel down with a thud and bow respectfully, saying, "I have wasted my life and accomplished nothing... For millions of years, I have suffered humiliation and ridicule, and endured it all my life..."

"Waaah... It's because I'm useless that they all look down on me!"

"It's because I'm incompetent that I can't break through to a higher realm; they all mock me..."

"I've really had enough of this situation, sob sob sob..."

Li Yu chuckled. "You really want to break through?"

Randeng crawled towards Li Yu on his knees, grabbed his leg, and tears streamed down his face.

"I want to! I really want to! I dream about breaking through!"

"Waaah, I miss you so much..." Ran Deng choked up and sobbed.

"First Emperor! First Emperor, the Supreme Ruler! I swear, I swear to the Great Dao, that I will treat the First Emperor, my adoptive father, as I would my own father. If there is even the slightest falsehood, may the Great Dao annihilate me, Randeng..."

"Waaaaah!"

Burning lamp wept bitterly and swore an oath to the Great Road.

Buzz! The Great Dao swore an oath.

Li Yu shook his head and pointed at him, "You!"

"Since we've come this far, I'll keep it brief."

"What is the method of spiritual practice?"

"It is a tool for pursuing the Great Way!"

"That's one way!"

"If the method of cultivation goes wrong, the effort will be twice as much but half as little, and it may even be difficult to make any progress."

"Randeng, what is your true form? A primordial spirit coffin!"

"What is a coffin? It signifies death and annihilation. Yet you insist on neglecting your own path, focusing solely on the path of Hongjun, or perhaps the methods of the Jade Purity Sect of Chanjiao. Can you attain enlightenment through such means?"
