Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

Although the main purpose of contacting the divine tree was to obtain the main materials for the torch by relying on Yu Ji...

But He Li wouldn't just sit here idly waiting before Yu Ji finished communicating; he also had many things he could try during this free time.

For example, the matter of the "Great Nuo Fu"!

The existence of the "Great Nuo Fu" is quite special.

Based on the information available, it is not only the foundation of martial arts but may also involve sacrificial rites.

If the "Great Nuo Rhapsody" cannot be completed successfully...

That will inevitably have an impact on future generations.

Although, according to the rules, He Li could not easily change history and therefore could create the "Great Nuo Fu," this rule is useless for the unknown future.

Simply put, the history after He Li's journey from this era to the future is unknown.

Because what is right now is right now!

Even in the "past," both the present and the past are known, established history, and are inevitable.

But the "future" is unknown.

Therefore, the result of He Li doing nothing and relying on the rules to force the "Great Nuo Rhapsody" to appear will be different from the result of him comprehending and perfecting the "Great Nuo Rhapsody" on his own.

He Li believes this difference will be reflected in his future strength.

The "Great Nuo Rhapsody" is perfected by relying on rules...

Because he didn't participate much, it's very likely that his mastery of the "Great Nuo Ode" will be limited in the future, which will in turn limit his own strength improvement.

Conversely, he independently comprehended and perfected the "Great Nuo Ode" because he had an extremely deep understanding of this cultivation method...

This will lead to a greater increase in his strength in the future.

Or master more powerful Nuo techniques.

It was precisely because of these considerations...

So while waiting for Yu Ji, He Li did not sit idle but began to think about the enlightenment of heaven and earth and the improvement of living beings, and tried to create the "Great Nuo Fu" on his own.

The image of watching Feng Lixi communicate with the goddess Nuwa kept flashing through his mind.

Especially Furyi's worship ceremony...

The Heaven Worship Ceremony is the prototype of the Nuo Dance of later generations. Those movements are in harmony with the universe and possess strange power.

Based on the worship of Heaven... combined with his own ideas and strength, along with the power of body transformation he had just comprehended, He Li was confident that he could initially perfect the "Great Nuo Ode".

As for more complex Nuo techniques and such...

This requires more knowledge and deeper understanding.

Perhaps those things will only come when he witnesses the Fire Ancestor firsthand or even confronts the aggregate of evil thoughts...

Only then is it possible to create it.

Without relevant experience and without knowing the meaning and power contained in those Nuo techniques, it is too wishful thinking to create Nuo techniques out of thin air.

However, while trying to comprehend and create the "Great Nuo Rhapsody", He Li seemed to have thought of something.

He suddenly looked at the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao...

What will the new law actually produce?

He asked, and the emotionless response from the Heavenly Dao consciousness followed...

"Yun!" came his reply.

Yun? He Li frowned; he had never heard of it.

The consciousness of the Heavenly Dao then explained itself: "The changes in heaven and earth, and even all things in the void, will produce rhythm. Rhythm... is something that cannot be explained or described, yet it truly exists."

"Even gods cannot perceive that kind of thing; at most, they can only sense it occasionally."

"Moreover, rhyme has different powers."

"The birth of the new method, in my understanding, can be called spiritual essence or Dao essence. This is the foundation for the birth of spiritual energy and also the foundation for the generation of other rare substances."

"In addition, other changes in all things will also produce 'rhythm' that has other effects!"

"There are too many things for me to explain in detail."

"I'll describe the simplest one: bad rhyme!"

"A foul sound?" He Li squinted.

Based on the Heavenly Dao's previous understanding of Dao Rhyme, he could easily guess what kind of power Evil Rhyme possessed.

If nothing unexpected happens, the birth of the aggregate of evil thoughts and the subsequent strange calamities are probably related, even if not entirely due to the influence of evil energy.

Sure enough, he was right.

The Heavenly Dao consciousness said, "Evil Qi will cause mysterious changes in many normal things."

"Those changes are often unpredictable."

"And things affected by negative energy... are often corresponding to spiritual energy or other gentle and positive things, but don't think that negative energy is necessarily bad."

"The existence of negative energy only makes it easier to influence changes in things that are already inclined to be negative."

"But heaven and earth have yin and yang..."

Nothing in the world is absolutely compatible.

"The existence of evil influences will also give rise to many things that have positive counterparts but do not necessarily harm the world; on the contrary, they will make the world more colorful and diverse..."

The concept of the Way of Heaven is explained in great detail.

The reason he did this was probably because He Li had previously comprehended the Dao of Body Transformation here.

Although the possibility of He Li transforming into a world might take an extremely long time to occur, the Heavenly Dao consciousness generally felt that He Li needed to know.

Because he himself is the potential "Way of Heaven".

In the future, what if He Liruo truly becomes the embodiment of the world...?

Knowing these things in advance might help him avoid many setbacks and grow up more smoothly in the world.

Of course, the will of Heaven couldn't have done this purely out of kindness; it also wanted to see how He Li would grow in the world he would become in the future.

If he could observe it with his own eyes...

The process by which a being takes form in the world, grows up smoothly, and quickly steps into an advanced civilization...

His intuition told him that he was bound to gain something.

As the Heavenly Dao, it is located at the top of the void.

If something can be gained at this level, then the things gained must be of extremely high value. It is precisely because of this feeling that the consciousness of the Way of Heaven is willing to speak out.

If it weren't for this...

If it were any other person or deity asking, the Heavenly Dao consciousness would never reveal these things.

After all, these things are secrets of the world and cannot be easily revealed to the gods, especially those gods who hold power and can defy the will of Heaven.

Tell them these things...

Isn't that just making things difficult for yourself?

Heaven isn't that foolish.

Upon hearing these events, He Li gained a clearer understanding of the changes that followed, and he was certain that the calamities were born from the influence of the evil aura.

However, after revealing all these things, the Heavenly Dao consciousness took the initiative to tell He Li something else...

"Rhythm is the highest form of energy."

"It is an existence that even gods cannot reach."

"It's useless for you to know now. You need to know other more important things than Yun."

"For example...mysterious winds and strange demons!"

Hmm? Mysterious style? Strange demon?

What is this thing?

He Li was completely bewildered. He had never heard of such things, neither in this era nor in later generations. The Heavenly Dao consciousness, of course, knew he was unaware and thus offered an explanation…

"The mysterious wind is a wind that comes from nowhere."

"Qimo... is the name given by deities such as Zhulong to the unknown things that drift in from the void."

After a slight pause, the Heavenly Dao continued, "There are many incomprehensible and strange beings in the void, and those beings, whether good or bad, may have a great impact on the world."

"These exist and wander in the void..."

"They will be blown to the edge of the world by the mysterious winds that occasionally appear in the void and cannot be named. If no living beings intercept them and they are allowed to descend, they may cause great disaster."

"Therefore, living beings are needed to guard the borders."

"This kind of being is the Guardian!"

"Also known as... the Guardians of Boundaries!"

"The guardian of this era's realm is the Candle Dragon, which hovers above the world, watching over the void..."

"The mysterious wind will be intercepted by it."

"The Strange Demon will be unable to drift into this realm!"

The Guardian... Zhulong...

He Li frowned. He almost immediately understood the mission of Mu Lan and the others in this era. It was no surprise that one of them would become a guardian to inherit their duties.

The probability of it being Yu Qingge is not high.

Yu Qingge is the lord of the Great Abyss, and her connection to Yu Ji corresponds precisely to the Divine Tree and the Great Abyss...

After all, the Great Abyss was a special area created when the Divine Tree took root in the Netherworld, so it was most suitable for Yu Qingge, as a relative of Yu Ji, to be stationed there.

From this perspective...

The one who oversees the boundary can only be Mu Lan.

However... Mu Lan's strength isn't very high; she's just fast.

Is she really capable of serving as the boundary guardian?

He Li was somewhat worried.

At the same time, he was also very curious about who was guarding the edge of the world during the many years of silence after Zhulong left? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask about the Heavenly Dao.

And the latter's answer to him...

This greatly surprised He Li!

Upon hearing He Li's question, the Heavenly Dao consciousness uttered two words...

"No!"
