Chapter 273
The River Chart offered by Bingyi is a true top-grade innate spiritual treasure.
It is just an object that has returned to the innate from the acquired.
That is to say, a divinity has replicated a "River Chart" to go fishing.
In order to simulate it, he very likely took this replicated "River Chart" to the time before the innate to "age" it, making it a "top-grade innate spiritual treasure."
This is the "refining the fake into the real" regarding spiritual treasures.
Is it a top-grade innate spiritual treasure? Yes!
Is it a River Chart? Also yes!
Is it the original River Chart born according to the Dao and nurtured by heaven and earth? Absolutely not!
The power might be equivalent, and the Great Dao it contains might even be almost the same, but this spiritual treasure definitely has a backup plan.
Otherwise, why would someone go to such lengths to make a high-quality imitation?
Other divinities find it difficult to see the clues.
And Xuanqing happens to be quite good at refining weapons.
"The Great Dao contained in this imitation is real, it's just that the original owner of the River Chart also recorded his own insights into the Great Dao within it."
"You studied it day and night, used it to break through, became a Great Luo, and walked the path he walked."
"From this point of view, this is your fate; the original owner of the River Chart has the grace of preaching to you, and can be called your guide, or master."
Bingyi heard this and smiled bitterly: "But this 'master' I've never met is most likely digging a pit for me."
"Looking at the bright side, he wants to find a successor, and from now on I will be a divinity of his lineage."
"Looking at the bad side, this will be my grave; one careless move and it will be the end of my life and soul!"
He was indeed tempted and developed greed, otherwise he wouldn't have picked up the River Chart.
If it weren't for a flash of inspiration when breaking through to Great Luo, Bingyi wouldn't have been able to detect the danger at all.
"Perhaps because this object is a spiritual treasure refined from fake to real, the Dao and principles within it are all real, so after I studied it, I finally gained many things, such as fortune-telling."
Bingyi said slowly: "When I became a Great Luo, I had a warning in my heart, so I cast a hex for myself, and the hex showed: Great Omen!"
This means that the divinity who laid out the plan wants Bingyi's life!
And after Bingyi detected the danger, he knew that the calamity was hard to escape, so he looked at Mount Kunlun, which is adjacent to the Abyss of Congji, and decisively came to pay a visit and seek help.
It is almost equivalent to a mortal in later generations picking up some strange things, feeling uneasy in his heart, and then putting them into the merit box in a temple or Taoist temple, asking the big shots to suppress them to seek disaster relief.
Bingyi's problem-solving approach is exactly this.
Pangu's one Qi transformed into the Three Pure Ones; this sounds very powerful.
Plus Mount Kunlun is adjacent to him, so Bingyi will certainly seize such an opportunity.
"I hope you will save me, Fellow Daoist!" Bingyi bowed again.
Xuanqing supported him and said: "How do you want me to save you, Fellow Daoist?"
Is this an agreement?
Bingyi was ecstatic in his heart, and he asked: "Is there any particularity to this?"
"Of course there is."
Xuanqing said: "The first method is self-rescue."
"Since you have already attained the Dao, Fellow Daoist, you don't need to be too afraid of life and death!"
"As long as you commit suicide directly before the mastermind behind the scenes takes action, and then lie into the long river of time and space to suppress yourself, you don't have to worry about being killed by the mastermind."
Ah?
Bingyi was stunned.
Is this how self-rescue is done?
"Don't be suspicious, Fellow Daoist, this is the means for Great Luo to avoid death and prolong life."
Xuanqing said: "In order to avoid calamity, Great Luo dies a step early, then lies into the long river of time and space, suppresses oneself, prolongs one's life, and seeks a glimmer of survival."
"In this way, as long as you die quickly and thoroughly enough, you can eliminate karma."
"Whether the divinity calculating you is plotting for your Dao fruit, wanting to possess you, or wanting to assimilate you, his plan will fall through."
"After lying through immeasurable epochs and then waking up, the mastermind might have already been calculated to death by other Great Luo in these long years."
"It seems... it makes sense!"
Bingyi's dull eyes regained their luster.
Anyway, the Great Da Da Luo Zhi Zun is attained once and attained forever, possessing infinite possibilities; at worst, he can start over in the future.
【This method is a bit cowardly.】 Bingyi thought.
He is a dignified Great Da Da Luo Zhi Zun after all; to be calculated and not even resist, but choose to commit suicide directly, is too undignified.
Xuanqing seemed to see Bingyi's thoughts, and he said: "If you don't have the certainty to resist directly, Fellow Daoist, then making the enemy's plan fall through is also another kind of resistance."
"Compared to being calculated to death by an unknown enemy and dying in an unknown way, choosing your own way to die is actually more decent."
"At least this method can allow you to grasp the initiative, Fellow Daoist, to choose how to die and when to be reborn."
Don't underestimate this bit of initiative.
Even if the Great Da Da Luo Zhi Zun possesses the ability to transcend, other Great Luo who dare to deal with you must have certainty, not to mention that Bingyi's attainment of the Dao was all in someone else's calculations.
By then, he wouldn't even know how he died, let alone be reborn.
If the enemy's methods are special and can nail Bingyi's coffin shut, then the probability of this revival is much smaller than suicide.
Xuanqing looked at the hesitant Bingyi and said: "As long as you lay out your plans properly, Fellow Daoist, you might be able to anchor a good result and use the passage of time to eliminate all the enemy's backhands."
If he can know where the other party died, Bingyi might even have the opportunity to dance on the enemy's grave after he is resurrected.
"Of course, the disadvantage of this method is obvious, and that is that your enemy has never died, or has been resurrected earlier than you."
Xuanqing stated the drawbacks of this method, "This situation is equivalent to infinitely postponing the time of your struggle; it just depends on when you wake up and continue this evil fate."
Bingyi pondered for a long time.
"May I ask, Fellow Daoist, are there any other methods?" Bingyi's eyes revealed a look of anticipation.
Xuanqing nodded slightly: "This second method requires you to change your way of survival, Fellow Daoist."
"I can turn you into a spiritual treasure, Fellow Daoist; with your foundation as an innate divinity, you will definitely be able to turn into a pretty good innate spiritual treasure."
Bingyi was obviously frightened by Xuanqing's words, the anticipation in his eyes receded and turned into panic.
He stammered: "This, this, this... Fellow Daoist... you..."
If it weren't for the certainty that Xuanqing had no hostility, Bingyi would have planned to run away on the spot.
This plan is too scary.
It's hard not to make Bingyi suspect that Xuanqing has designs on him.
"Don't panic, Fellow Daoist, our Yu Xu Palace is a serious place, we won't do anything to you."
"There are two most efficient ways to resolve the karma of life and death: one is to kill the enemy, and the other is to die yourself."
Xuanqing explained, saying: "If you exist in the form of an innate spiritual treasure, Fellow Daoist, it is also a kind of death, which can eliminate karma, avoid many calculations, and also make the enemy's plan fall through."
"In this way, you can still retain a bit of spiritual intelligence, Fellow Daoist, and you can also choose those who have fate with you, whether strong or weak."
"If you join the strong, you have to lose your freedom and be driven by others; if you join the weak, you can choose a genius and cultivate them slowly, eventually letting them complete the counter-kill for you."
"You can even enter the game yourself, Fellow Daoist, infiltrate the enemy's interior, pretend to follow the mastermind, wait for an opportunity to act, and look for a chance to counter-kill."
Xuanqing looked at Bingyi and said: "This method has high flexibility, relatively large autonomy, and many possibilities for the future."
"And the price is that you may lose your freedom, Fellow Daoist, and before you reshape your form, there is no possibility of further improvement in your cultivation realm."
After this explanation, Bingyi's doubts were finally dispelled, and his heart that had just been raised settled down peacefully.
【It really looks like a serious way to save people.】
Bingyi compared them; turning into an innate spiritual treasure seems much better than suicide.
Choosing the strong, safety is guaranteed in the future, and life and death are worry-free.
Choosing the weak, just treat it as choosing a successor; if one host doesn't work, change to another; after countless epochs, you will always find that son of destiny!
Infiltrating yourself is also very good; use their own way to treat them, and let the mastermind taste the feeling of being calculated!
It must be said that this method makes Bingyi very tempted.
Looking at Bingyi who was thinking seriously, Xuanqing sat quietly on the cloud platform with a smile on his face.
He didn't lie to Bingyi; this method is definitely feasible.
If this method really succeeds, Xuanqing's weapon refining Dao can also make great progress.
It counts as a win-win.
【Refining a complete Great Da Da Luo Zhi Zun into a spiritual treasure, just thinking about it is very interesting.】 Xuanqing was still looking forward to Bingyi choosing this method.
But it still depends on Bingyi's thoughts.
The pros and cons have been told, it just depends on how he chooses.
After a struggle, Bingyi looked at Xuanqing and asked: "May I ask, Fellow Daoist, are there any other ways?"
When he said this, he felt a bit guilty, wondering if he was too greedy.
Bingyi knew in his heart that he hadn't made this trip in vain just by getting the first method.
"Of course there are ways."
Xuanqing said: "The third method is to shift the calamity and seek protection from major forces and powerful beings."
Bingyi heard this and became excited.
In fact, when he came to Kunlun Mountain, he already had the idea of hugging a big thigh!
"Then I..."
Bingyi was about to speak, but Xuanqing said: "This method also has disadvantages; the karma on you is very great, and if the grace of attaining the Dao turns into a calamity, it will be quite terrifying."
"Even for major forces and powerful beings, they have to think twice about the consequences."
The karma between Great Luo is no small matter.
Offending an unknown fisherman for the sake of a Great Luo, or perhaps a group of fishermen, anyone would have to weigh it.
Especially for forces with large businesses, the possibility of taking in Bingyi is minimal.
You take Bingyi into your gate today, and you will be targeted by others tomorrow.
If the other party's methods are inferior and their bottom line is lower, and they retaliate against your disciples and juniors, what should you do?
Unless you have the certainty to directly settle the existence that calculated Bingyi, anyone who sees Bingyi will have to hide and walk away.
So is Xuanqing willing to take in Bingyi?
Yes, but this willingness is not strong.
Because Xuanqing also cannot calculate the mastermind behind the scenes.
Then the other party most likely has heavy treasures on them, or is committing crimes in a group.
The risk is not small.
"Don't be discouraged, Fellow Daoist, there are still powerful beings who can take you in."
Looking at the disappointed Bingyi, Xuanqing still pointed him a way: "After you leave East Kunlun, Fellow Daoist, there will be a glimmer of survival, but this survival might be accompanied by another calamity, so you must think it through, Fellow Daoist."
Bingyi hurriedly asked: "Can you clarify, Fellow Daoist?"
This is a bit pushing it.
But Xuanqing didn't blame him.
Under the worry of life and death, of course, one grabs whatever one can.
Xuanqing shook his head with a smile: "Cannot be said."
He is now the ancestor of Heavenly Immortals, how can he directly recommend Bingyi to the Demon Dao?
Not to mention that Xuanqing and he are not related, and he exploded his own vest after meeting once; is this appropriate?
As for the calamity Xuanqing mentioned, it is naturally the struggle between Immortals and Demons.
Bingyi joined the Demon Dao, so he must participate in that calamity in the future; whether he can survive in the end is really hard to say.
Another point is, why Bingyi came to Kunlun Mountain; this question is worth thinking about.
【Is it because of the infinite possibilities represented by Great Luo, or because of the push of the mastermind, or is it that Hongjun is finding trouble for me?】 Xuanqing pondered in his heart.
Every Great Luo represents infinite possibilities.
Even in the face of a situation of ten deaths and no life, the Great Da Da Luo Zhi Zun has the possibility of breaking the game, so Bingyi coming to Kunlun for help might be a coincidence in itself.
If it is the second situation, one must guard against it.
Bingyi himself said that the result of the fortune-telling was Great Omen.
Then the question is, Bingyi's learning all comes from the River Chart; is this hexagram being guided by the mastermind?
The possibility of the third situation is also not small.
Hongjun is clearly obstructing Luo Hou from expanding the Demon Dao.
Luo Hou knows to find Xuanqing to increase the stakes and add variables to break the game. Then Hongjun can also use Bingyi as a chess piece to divert Xuanqing, thereby finding something for Xuanqing to do through the karma on Bingyi.
Lest Xuanqing be pulled by Luo Hou to destroy the Immortal Dao's plans.
This possibility is the highest.
Xuanqing secretly thought: 【The Demon Dao side just recruited two Great Luo, and the third Great Luo, Bingyi, was about to be included under the Demon Ancestor's command, but he left the Abyss of Congji and came directly to my East Kunlun for help.】
【If there is no Hongjun pushing the waves behind this, I really don't believe it.】
This sequence of events is just too coincidental.
Looking at Bingyi who was still pondering, Xuanqing directly contacted Luo Hou.
【Fellow Daoist, the person you want is currently in a situation.】
After telling Luo Hou about Bingyi's situation, Luo Hou replied: 【Since you have given a few choices, Fellow Daoist, let him choose for himself.】
Obviously, Luo Hou also felt that this karma was a bit troublesome and thought Bingyi could be recruited or not.
After contacting Luo Hou, Xuanqing directly contacted Yang Mei.
【Fellow Daoist, isn't the Immortal Dao recruiting people now? I have found a Great Luo for the Immortal Dao.】
In a certain void, Yang Mei was directly happy.
He looked at Hongjun and laughed: "Old Daoist, he is very sharp, he won't fall for your trick!"
"He now even wants to shift this karma to the Immortal Dao; will you take it or not?"
"Take what?"
Hongjun said lightly: "My Immortal Dao seeks fellow Daoists and looks at fate; he has no fate with us and cannot enter the Immortal Dao."
"That's fine, I'll reply to Fellow Daoist Taiwei Yuan Shi." Yang Mei knew that Bingyi going to Kunlun was guided by Hongjun.
The old Daoist pushed the boat with the current, using someone else's bait as a chess piece, and separated the Demon Dao duo.
This is a leisure move, and the main purpose is really what Xuanqing thought—Hongjun intends to find something for Xuanqing to do, so that Xuanqing has nothing to do and only thinks about making trouble.
But Xuanqing actually guessed it and planned to strike back, which surprised Yang Mei.
Xuanqing asked: 【Fellow Daoist, how have you considered it?】
Yang Mei replied: 【Thank you for your trouble, Fellow Daoist; Hongjun and I just cast a hex, and he has no fate with our Immortal Dao.】
【I advise you not to keep him by your side, Fellow Daoist; a Great Luo entangled in karma is very troublesome.】
At the end, Yang Mei also gave Xuanqing a reminder.
"It really is Hongjun."
Xuanqing's eyes flickered; bringing such karma to Kunlun Mountain, only this old Daoist likes to do such immoral things!
"Fellow Daoist, I have considered it!"
Bingyi looked up, his eyes firm as he looked at Xuanqing.
Xuanqing asked: "Which method do you plan to choose?"
"I choose two!"
Bingyi bowed and said: "I actually really want to join your sect, Fellow Daoist, but my own karma has not been eliminated, and it will definitely bring disaster to Yu Xu."
"Therefore, I can only change the method; please turn me into an innate spiritual treasure, Fellow Daoist, and let me stay in Yu Xu Palace."
Bingyi was extremely decisive, not even mentioning asking Xuanqing to help kill the mastermind behind the scenes.
He came to seek help.
Being able to change a way of living is already very good.
As for going down the mountain to find that glimmer of survival, Bingyi cast a hex himself.
The hex showed: Flat.
He interpreted it, probably that he could live for a period of time, and finally die in the calamity.
Death either way, so it's better to choose two.
Although turning into a spiritual treasure is a disguised death, as long as the true spirit is not extinguished, it is just a matter of changing a body.
"Have you really thought it through, Fellow Daoist?"
Xuanqing confirmed again and again.
"Thought it through!"
Bingyi nodded solemnly: "Bingyi is alone, with no worries, only because of my eagerness to seek the Dao, I developed greed, and only then fell into the calculations of others."
"Now although my Great Luo Dao fruit has condensed, I am afraid that I will suffer a calamity before long; it is better to follow you, Fellow Daoist, and there might be a chance for revenge in the future!"
Still the same sentence, Bingyi believes in Pangu.
Pangu's one Qi transformed into the Three Pure Ones; how bad can a divinity who can get the gifts of the Great God Pangu be?
Xuanqing saw that Bingyi had made up his mind, and he also sighed: "Since you trust me so much, Fellow Daoist, I must not let down your expectations."
"I have a volume of scriptures here, which is about the required content before turning into an innate spiritual treasure; you should practice for three days first, Fellow Daoist."
"In these three days, think about it carefully again; if you change your mind, you can go down the mountain at any time."
"There is still a glimmer of survival outside the mountain."
Xuanqing handed Bingyi a volume of scriptures.
Bingyi looked down.
The scripture was impressively written: "One Hundred Solutions of the Chaos Destruction Mo Shen, Volume Seven, Weapon Refining Chapter, Refining God into Weapon (Part Two)"
One Hundred Solutions of the Chaos Destruction Mo Shen?
Solve what?
Disintegrate?
Bingyi looked at the smiling Xuanqing and didn't dare to ask.
He hypnotized himself: "Orthodox Pangu, isn't it natural to deal with Chaos Demon Gods?"
"The more methods, the more professional it is!"
Leaving Bingyi to practice in the main hall, Xuanqing went directly to the Three Pure Heavens.
"What do you two think, Fellow Daoists?" Xuanqing asked.
"Is it possible that Bingyi is a game set up by Hongjun?"
Daoist Yuchen said: "It was he who guided Bingyi to East Kunlun, and it was he who used the River Chart to fish."
"Hongjun has many spiritual treasures on him; it's not strange if the River Chart and Luo Book are in his hands, and he indeed has the ability to produce a high-quality imitation."
Taishang shook his head: "It's definitely not Hongjun who used the River Chart to fish; this level is too average."
"If it were really him, could he let the fish discover the crisis itself?"
"That's true." Daoist Yuchen nodded.
Taishang looked at Bingyi practicing in Yu Xu Main Hall, and he chuckled: "Actually, there is another way to save him; I have a Nine-Turn Soul-Returning Pill here!"
"Don't!"
Xuanqing and Daoist Yuchen said in unison: "Fellow Daoist, you'd better let him go!"
Nine-Turn Soul-Returning Pill, just hearing the name sounds like the kind where you have to die several times.
Bingyi has been calculated to death by others, which is miserable enough.
Dying a few more times, I'm afraid he'll be directly cooled down.
"How do you plan to deal with this River Chart, Fellow Daoist?" Taishang asked.
"Refine it again and erase all karma, that's all."
Xuanqing said: "Although this River Chart is a high-quality imitation, the Great Dao contained in it is worth referring to."
"I plan to use this to create a great formation in the starry sky of the Heavenly Cycle."
"Great formation?"
Daoist Yuchen's eyes lit up, "Do you need my help?"
"Of course I do!"
Xuanqing laughed: "Without your help, Fellow Daoist, I might not really be able to deduce it."
"So you are going to make a big scene again, Fellow Daoist!" Taishang was very expectant; there are really not many things that Xuanqing is not sure about, this great formation must not be simple!
"Then what spiritual treasure do you plan to turn Bingyi into, Fellow Daoist?" Taishang asked again.
They have refined Demon Gods into spiritual treasures.
But they really hadn't thought about a Great Luo divinity actively wanting to turn into a spiritual treasure.
Xuanqing pondered for a moment: "Fellow Daoist Bingyi hopes to stay in Yu Xu Palace, so how about turning into a Yu Xu Palace Lamp?"
"It can also be turned into an offensive spiritual treasure."
Daoist Yuchen said: "Let Fellow Daoist Bingyi be like the Jade Ruyi, and go teach the second-generation disciples and third-generation disciples."
"Maybe one of the disciples can help Fellow Daoist Bingyi understand this karma!"
"This idea is good."
Taishang looked at the River Chart floating in Yu Xu Palace, and he suddenly had an inspiration: "I have an idea, how about turning into the Luo Book?"
"Luo Book?" Xuanqing was stunned.
"Yes!"
Taishang said enthusiastically: "Aren't the River Chart and Luo Book a set?"
"Xuanqing can refine a small Taiji Diagram and a Yu Xu Axe for Opening the Sky; using the River Chart to reverse-deduce the Luo Book and refine it, there's absolutely no problem, right?"
"Interesting!" Yuchen approved of this suggestion.
Thinking of the scene where the mastermind behind the scenes faces Xuanqing in the future, and both sides take out the River Chart and Luo Book, he wanted to laugh.
"This Luo Book can really be refined."
Xuanqing also became interested, "I'll go to the shore of the Luo River to comprehend the Dao and come back in three days!"
After saying that, Xuanqing disappeared into the Three Pure Heavens.
Three days later, Yu Xu Palace.
"Have you thought it through, Fellow Daoist?" Xuanqing asked.
"Thought it through!"
Bingyi's expression was firm.
"Good!"
Xuanqing nodded, and he took out the Achieving Achieving Hunyuan Ding.
*Dang! *
The Achieving Achieving Hunyuan Ding landed steadily in Yu Xu Palace, the mouth of the cauldron shrouded in clouds and mist, faintly accompanied by thunder and lightning, and it seemed to be connected to the time and space of all worlds, with boundless chaotic primordial Qi rolling within it.
"Fellow Daoist, after you enter this cauldron, you will become the Luo Book when you come out."
Xuanqing explained the relationship between the Luo Book and the River Chart.
Bingyi's face was immediately filled with a smile: "Good, just the Luo Book!"
The Heavenly Sovereign said so, he definitely wants to make an issue of the River Chart and Luo Book, then he will definitely face the mastermind behind the scenes!
Revenge is in sight!
Thinking of this, Bingyi turned into a ray of innate spiritual light without hesitation and threw himself into the Achieving Achieving Hunyuan Ding.
Starry sky of the Heavenly Cycle, Western Star Domain.
The 【Landlord】, one of the eight masters of the Heavenly Cycle, suddenly opened his eyes.
"What's wrong?" The Lord of the Six Waves asked.
"The Dao fruit of the Abyss of Congji has been picked!"
The 【Landlord】 said indignantly: "The imitated River Chart has also cut off karma with me!"
"What?" Beside the 【Landlord】, the sun's shadow swayed.
The 【Sun Lord】 said: "This is the Dao fruit we prepared for the Lord of the Four Seasons, and it was snatched away just like that?!"
"Can you calculate who it is?" The Lord of the Six Waves asked.
"Cannot calculate!"
The 【Landlord】 shook his head: "Heavenly secrets show that that fish has already died and his soul has vanished, and all karma has been completely cut off."
"Damn it!"
It was at the very last step, but an accident happened, and the fruit was picked by someone, which made the Demon Gods indignant:
"Who the hell did this?"
We just want to go ashore, what did we do wrong?
