The Great Dao is equivalent to the world, and I am currently within the Great Dao. Therefore, that being can absolutely be considered omniscient and omnipotent. Is it really alright for us to discuss matters related to the Great Dao in this way?

Thinking of this, Su Yan couldn't help but look at Bai Ze beside him and ask, "Senior, we are now essentially inside the Great Dao. Is it really okay for us to discuss matters related to the Great Dao like this?"

"If it could truly hear us, that would be fine, but it's a great pity," Bai Ze sighed. "It won't appear before the cycle of reincarnation begins; it will only appear when the cycle restarts."

"It's not that there's no way to see it, but it's extremely difficult. Don't ask me how I can do it, I can't tell you."

When the creator spirits die, or when Youchao, who maintained the natural order of the world, perishes, either condition will be met and one will be able to see the Great Dao. Alternatively, either of the two who perish among the Five Heavenly Emperors will be able to see its manifestation in the world.

But these conditions are simply impossible; the fellow Daoists of the Wilderness Palace have already tried them.

The Five Heavenly Emperors, the Spirit of Creation, and Youchao Shi are all ancient overlords who have ruled the heavens. It is difficult enough to shake their existence, let alone try to destroy them.

Bai Ze had never even touched upon the truth of things that Yinglong, Nuwa, Fuxi, Ruonu, Huangdi, and himself had never encountered in the wilderness. Naturally, he couldn't rely on Su Yan. Who among them wasn't a unique existence in the world?

Su Yan should live well, and when the cycle of reincarnation begins again in the future, he can ask himself a question on his behalf, so that he can live up to his responsibility and not forget the original intention and obligation of heaven and earth to nurture him.

"How about we go to Nantian for a cup of tea? I still remember a teahouse in the Wilderness of Duku, where the tea was quite delicious. We could invite a few friends to sit on a fairy boat and drift along with the current."

"How about we forget it? It's nothing." Su Yan originally wanted to invite Senior Ruonv, since Senior Ruonv and Senior Bai Ze were old acquaintances and hadn't seen each other for tens of thousands of years. They must have a lot to reminisce about.

I can also gossip about the glorious years of the senior when he was young.

But Su Yan thought that he and Senior Ruonv had almost been seen by Zhuyin just now, and Senior Ruonv should be hiding somewhere and passed out from drunkenness, right?

I want to find Senior Ruonv, but I don't know where to look.

.....................

...............

Meanwhile, in the northernmost heavens of the celestial realm, a celestial being who had recently lost contact was perched on a large tree, gazing into the distance at something moving within the void.

But at the feet of the god, a small, slightly round, white fox demon hopped around, baring its fangs and claws, looking at the god with an arrogant expression and shouting:

"You damned old Taoist, do you even know who Master Fox is? How dare you kidnap my grandfather here! If Gu Jun and Senior Zhu Yin find out I'm not in Zhongshan territory, be careful they won't let you off the hook when they come back!"

The little fox demon perched on a branch of a large tree, looking slightly guilty at the celestial being, and let out a series of whimpering howls, threatening the old Taoist priest in front of her to put her down.

The tree the two were standing on was the tallest tree in the world, born during the chaotic era. Its roots and stems spread throughout the primordial immortal realm, and its lush canopy developed hidden in the void. If it were to manifest, the entire primeval forest would be enveloped in its shade.

Although the Chinese toon tree lacks sentience, it possesses a variety of incredible supernatural powers and abilities.

Beings that can reach the top of the Toon Tree are themselves extremely abnormal beings. The little fox demon, who was kidnapped to the top of the Toon Tree by the gods, was pounding with fear, completely unable to understand why this guy had kidnapped her.

The celestial being glanced at the white fox demon, whose claws were deeply entrenched in the tree bark. Though inwardly fearful, the little fox demon maintained a flawless facade and rebuked:

"I am Su Yan, the chief musician of the Zhuyin Imperial Court, personally invited back to the palace by Gu Jun. You dare to glare at me and see what happens!"

"Yes Yes Yes"

The god picked at his ear, a hint of impatience on his face, and replied in a very perfunctory manner.

The little fox demon in front of him was quite a coincidence; the celestial being had encountered it on his way to the Northern Heaven. It jumped onto the table of the thousand-year-old shop with a smug look on its face, holding up a picture of itself with Zhuyin, showing off its power in the shop.

The god glanced at it curiously. The photo was from the recent banquet where Zhuyin was awakened. Su Yan, the best person there, was squatting on Zhuyin's lap, being stroked by Zhuyin.

The gods could tell at a glance that the fox in the photo was Su Yan, while the little fox demon showing off on the table was not Su Yan at all, but the two looked almost identical when in fox form.

The celestial being watched in amazement. If he hadn't known Su Yan and hadn't lived with him for a period of time, he would have almost believed the little fox demon in front of him.

Su Yan is a nine-tailed fox, belonging to the divine beast race that evolved when the chaotic stars fell. Nine-tailed foxes are just divine beasts with the form of foxes. They do not shed fur and always have a strange fragrance on their bodies.

The interior is made from the sweetest ingredients, and it even has hallucinogenic properties that can be used to defend against enemies.

The gods were preparing congratulatory gifts when they saw the fox demon eating and drinking for free. So they tied her up and planned to hand her over to Su Yan for disposal when they went to the Western Paradise.

The little fox has finally made it big; some creatures are even starting to impersonate him and put on airs.

The god felt a strange sense of emotion. When he first met Su Yan, he was hiding behind Ruonv, timid and hesitant. In just over a year, in the blink of an eye, Su Yan was sitting on Zhuyin's lap, enjoying the caress of the Creator Spirit.

"The original, undying, pure Dharma."

The celestial being withdrew his gaze from the little fox demon and turned it back into the void. He raised his hand, grasped his alchemy furnace warhammer, and swung it, sending a surge of crimson energy into the void and affecting a moving object.

The surging waves crashed into the Lost World, forcing it to a halt as it was returning. The crimson ripples swept across a corner of the world, engulfing all living beings within the Lost World into the sky. The buildings and traces of human activity within it vanished in an instant.

A crimson light shone brightly in the lost world. After the crimson light disappeared, a water droplet shaped like a flower bud floated in the void. The azure ocean was twisted and refined into the base of the earring and the flower bud, while the mountains and sky became decorations floating on it.

The celestial being slowly stretched out his hand. Under the horrified gaze of the cultivators in this lost world, the enormous hand, which blotted out the sky, reached out and squeezed his world, shrinking it to the size of a normal human's garment, before slowly disappearing into the void.

"This should be sufficient as a congratulatory gift."

The deity opened his palm, looked at the earring lying in his hand radiating peace and natural energy, and smiled, saying:

"After much thought, I've decided that giving her jewelry is the most appropriate gift. The Queen Mother of the West has just returned and is currently risking her life to suppress rebellious ministers. She should be enjoying the beauty of her fox spirit and recruiting servants right now. She definitely wouldn't have time to buy jewelry!"

The gods breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing the beauty of the earrings.

Because he had contributed to the return of the Queen Mother of the West, Chongming sent him a very formal letter when the Ten Thousand Immortals Banquet was held. The Heavenly God looked at the invitation of the Ten Thousand Immortals Banquet with a headache.

He had been to the Ten Thousand Immortals Banquet before, but in the past he would just wander over empty-handed, eat and drink, watch the fairies sing and dance on the upper level, while he would pour wine for the immortals below, making them silly, and then instigate them to fight.

Thus, the gods had a great time, but when the Queen Mother of the West officially sent out the invitation, it meant that the gods would have to sit at the very front and eat and drink with a group of ancient monsters from the chaotic era.

Even gods have pride. Although the Queen Mother of the West didn't care about gifts, he couldn't very well go empty-handed after receiving an invitation from her.

After much thought, I finally decided to give her jewelry, and I specially chose a beautiful lost world to transform it into a pretty earring.

Moreover, perfect earrings, even if they are not in pairs, can actually be interpreted as the beauty of imperfect, unique pieces.

The Queen Mother of the West had no reason not to like it! The celestial being withdrew his hand from the earring, grabbed the grumbling little fox demon, and fled into the void.

Chapter 644 The Meaning of Cultivation

"God?"

The celestial being strode away from the ailanthus tree and arrived halfway up Kunlun Mountain. After disappearing for a while, Ling Lun, who was on his way to the Eastern Heaven to fetch reinforcements, looked at the celestial being who had emerged from the void with a face full of surprise and said:

"You actually dare to attend the Ten Thousand Immortals Banquet! It's only been tens of thousands of years since you instigated Lu Wu and Ying Zhao to fight each other at the banquet, almost knocking over Ruomu, one of the symbols of the Western Paradise."

"Go! Go! Go!"

The god looked at Ling Lun, who had spoken, and said with a look of annoyance, "You also say that was tens of thousands of years ago. Things are different now. I'm here with an invitation to be your guest!"

After the deity finished speaking, he looked at a strange holy spirit beside Ling Lun. The newcomer was over three meters tall, but his body shape was not fixed in a certain form. Sometimes he was male, sometimes he transformed into female, and sometimes he was just a certain life form.

Its form was constantly changing, and even its voice was inconsistent, appearing as if multiple people were speaking at the same time, regardless of age or gender.

"Long time no see, God."

Until the gods locked onto the newcomer, the newcomer's figure became completely stable, materializing into a three-meter-tall woman wearing a jade crown and gorgeous clothes, who greeted them with a slight smile.

"A mere two hundred years," the celestial being said with a strange expression and a hint of sarcasm, "Ever since you kicked me, my back is still aching! Great Emperor Taiwei Dongxia Fusang Danlin, Supreme Dao Lord!"

"Haha, we're all acquaintances, so there's no need to use full names when greeting each other." The Fusang Emperor, Dongwanggong, leaned slightly against the railing of the pavilion, smiling as he looked at the celestial being: "Just call him Mugong."

The gods often lead their people on wanderings, making the celestial realm their home and honing their martial arts skills, only returning home to digest their experiences after a journey ends.

More than two hundred years ago, the gods were traveling with their people to the Eastern Heaven. Because the gods were causing trouble in the Eastern Heaven Sea, the people asked the Emperor of Fusang to personally drive the gods and their entourage out of the Eastern Heaven.

The "kick" mentioned by the god did not mean that the Emperor of Fusang actually kicked him, but rather that he defeated him through battle.

The strange look on the god's face could be interpreted as a mixture of fear and anticipation, a desire to fight it again.

"Waaaaah—"

The little fox demon, held in the hands of the celestial being, shrank back slightly and dared not utter another word.

The being before it was the Great Emperor of Taiwei Dongxia Fusang Danlin, the Eastern Heavenly Emperor Dongwanggong who controlled the Yang of all things. The origin of a celestial being who could converse with such a being and talk and laugh with him must be extraordinary.

The little fox demon no longer dared to threaten the gods.

"Is this Su Yan?"

The Eastern King Duke tilted his gaze slightly, looking at the little fox demon being carried by the celestial being, and said, "Although I have been staying in seclusion lately and haven't paid much attention to worldly affairs, I have still heard of Su Yan's name."

Su Yan was very low-key and never deliberately showed off. He would only boast a little in front of his friends. But the fact that he could associate with Zhu Yin and fall into the arms of the Queen Mother of the West under the watchful eyes of countless gods and immortals meant that even if he wasn't very strong, the two great gods behind him were enough to support his reputation.

Zhuyin and west Wangmu are no ordinary holy spirits. With the backing of two divine mountains, it would be difficult for Su Yan not to become famous.

Su Yan's name even reached the ears of the Eastern King through the mouths of the people of the Eastern Heaven.

"This one? This one isn't. Su Yan's bloodline is also related to yours; he's of the White Fox family and can activate the Undying Armor."

The celestial being shook the little fox demon in his hand and said, "As for the one in my hand, it's just a little guy who's been freeloading and swindling money in the Northern Heaven under Su Yan's name. I just picked it up and handed it to the little fox to see what to do with it."

"Eek?"

The little fox demon gave an awkward smile and shakily extended her hand to greet the great gods.

Ling Lun looked at the little fox demon, his brows furrowing slightly, indicating a hint of displeasure.

Before he knew about the little fox demon, Ling Lun didn't pay any attention to the little guy. He thought it was a pet that a god had picked up in the wild. Little did he know that this guy was impersonating Su Yan and swindling people in the outside world.

The relationship between Ling Lun and Su Yan can be simply described as one of both teacher and rival. While teaching Su Yan the art of music, Ling Lun is also facing the challenge of the younger generation.

Although she was unwilling to hand over the Bai Ze inheritance, Ling Lun saw Su Yan's hard work and dedication.

Therefore, upon learning that the little fox demon in front of him was using Su Yan's name to swindle people in the outside world, he immediately became displeased.

"Here comes the knife."

Ling Lun stood up from the pavilion, chanting a line of poetry. His voice manifested, and a razor appeared in his hand from nothing. The little fox demon's eyes widened in terror as she stared at Ling Lun, crying out:

"I was wrong! I truly know I was wrong, and I will never dare to impersonate Immortal Su Yan to swindle people again. I will return what I swindled right now, and even add some spirit stones to make up for the meals I've been eating for free lately."

Ling Lun, with an indifferent expression, raised his hand and, under the watchful eyes of the gods and the Eastern King, placed the razor against the little fox demon's forehead. Amidst the little fox demon's terrified expression, he cut straight down from its forehead, shaving the fur all the way to the tip of its tail.

Little fox demon: "."

However, Ling Lun's actions did not stop. In a few quick movements, he shaved off most of the little fox demon's fur, revealing the black skin hidden beneath the white fluffy fur.

The little fox demon squatted on the ground, glanced at her shaved fur, then at Ling Lun, and then at the celestial being who was watching the show with a look of amazement: "."

"An interesting punishment," Dong Wanggong said with a smile, looking at the bald fox demon and praising Ling Lun's creativity.

.....................

…………

"Senior Lord of the Night, I'm back!" Su Yan peeked out from the spatial portal, glanced around briefly, and saw the Lord of the Night sitting in a chair, studying the secret method of nurturing new demons.

Su Yan leaped out of the spatial portal and landed straight in the Lord of the Night's arms.
