Chapter 391: Tai Yi Sect Master, Second Proving Pangu (9k, three-in-one, added 13)
In Lady Zi Xiao Palace, immortal light was ethereal, and auspicious clouds were vast.
The gods who succeeded in cutting corpses were all overjoyed.
Those who didn't succeed were not discouraged either.
Failure is not a bad thing.
The path of the Dao is a process of constant verification.
Failure today can be considered as accumulating experience.
And Dao Ancestor Hong Jun is definitely a good teacher; he encourages everyone to try and make mistakes because he, the Dao Ancestor, is covering for the gods.
All those who failed to cut corpses and suffered Dao injuries were helped by the Dao Ancestor to recover their injuries.
"Thank you, Dao Ancestor!"
This sound of gratitude carried some sincerity.
The Dao Ancestor opened his Dharma eyes and saw the three thousand Great Dao rivers flowing endlessly, and the three thousand Great Dao rivers branching into countless tributaries.
Countless tributaries, boundless Dao domains, endless Dao rules.
A scene of prosperity.
He nodded slightly and looked at the first row again.
It was not just him looking.
Other gods who tried to cut corpses were also looking.
"Why haven't they cut corpses yet?" Everyone was curious in their hearts.
Those sitting in the first row were all top-level branch school principals of the Heavenly Dao Academy.
If it were said that they couldn't cut corpses, that would be absolutely impossible.
"Cut!"
At this moment, more than ten voices sounded at the same time.
Yuan Huang, Di Jun, Wang Shu, Zhen Yuanzi, Bai Long, Yao Chi, and others had their immortal light shine brightly.
The three flowers on top of their heads swayed, the auspicious clouds extended, and each had two gods walk down.
"Good and evil two corpses?"
Seeing this situation, the gods' mouths twitched.
"Cut!"
One wave had not yet subsided, and another wave rose.
The Three Pure Ones, Nv Wa, Jie Yin, Zhun Ti, Fu Xi, and Tai Yi shouted in unison.
In their auspicious clouds, three gods appeared each.
The gods gasped: "As expected of the Six Saints; the three corpses are all out, already walking at the forefront of the Great Dao!"
"Our hall master is truly strong, actually on par with the Six Saints!" The members of the Ten-Direction Divine Hall were overjoyed.
"Great, the Welfare Immortal has also cut the three corpses; he has become stronger, so he can distribute more welfare to everyone!" The Profound Gate immortals looked at Tai Yi and beamed with joy.
Everyone felt heartfelt happiness and admiration.
However, in this joyous atmosphere, there was a place that appeared slightly quiet.
That was the area where the thirteen Ancestral Witches were located.
Just when Zhu Jiu Yin, She Bi Shi, Tian Wu, and other Ancestral Witches were about to cut corpses, 【Wu Ancestral Witch】 Wu Luo suddenly coughed lightly and transmitted:
【Everyone, don't rush first.】
【Why?】 The other Ancestral Witches looked at Wu Luo in confusion, not understanding why he stopped them.
Wu Luo showed a serious expression on his face and said in a deep voice:
【Fellow brothers and sisters, our Wu Clan is different from other gods...】
【We don't cultivate the primordial spirit, only refine the supreme physique; this Hunyuan Dharma gate is a primordial spirit Great Dao, we can't learn it, and these three corpses naturally can't be cut.】
Once this was said, the other twelve Ancestral Witches were directly stunned, looking at Wu Luo in unison, their eyes full of confusion.
We Wu Clan don't cultivate the primordial spirit?
How come we don't know this setting?
Also, who said that if you don't cultivate the primordial spirit, you can't learn the Hunyuan method and can't cut the three corpses?
Is there any necessary
Seeing his brothers and sisters looking completely bewildered, Wu Luo secretly chuckled, yet on the surface, he feigned a long sigh and said with a pained and heartbroken expression:
"There's no help for it; this is the racial defect of our Wu Clan. We are destined to have no affinity for such profound and marvelous soul techniques."
"Sigh~~ It is truly a great pity!"
As he spoke, he accompanied his words by thumping his chest, putting on an appearance of extreme grief.
The other Ancestral Wu first blinked, then a flash of inspiration struck their minds, and they immediately realized Wu Luo's intention.
"Ah, yes, yes, this is indeed our racial defect; it is too regrettable." All thirteen Ancestral Wu made expressions of thumping their chests and stamping their feet, sighing and lamenting.
This sorrowful and dismal appearance attracted the attention of other members in their group.
Daoist Hanhai, who was observing the gods in the front row severing their corpses, looked toward Di Jiang and comforted him: "Did you fellow Daoists fail? Don't be discouraged; you failed this time, but learn from the experience, and you will surely succeed next time!"
Daoist Hanhai pointed to the first row and said with a smile: "By then, you might be able to be like the Six Sages and sever all three corpses directly!"
However, upon hearing Daoist Hanhai's comfort, the Ancestral Wu let out a long sigh, their voices filled with endless loneliness and melancholy.
"Fellow Daoist Hanhai, you do not know!" The 【Space Ancestral Wu】 Di Jiang's acting skills instantly soared to the extreme.
He looked at Daoist Hanhai with complex eyes.
His gaze held three parts sorrow, three parts helplessness, three parts unwillingness, and one part feigned strength.
"It is not that we failed to sever our corpses, but that we cannot practice the method of severing corpses at all!"
Then, he recounted the "tragic truth" that "the Wu Clan does not cultivate the soul, only the physical body, which is a racial defect, and thus cannot practice the method of severing the three corpses," adding his own embellishments to Daoist Hanhai.
When he reached the emotional part, Di Jiang even squeezed out a few hero's tears to match.
Daoist Hanhai sighed deeply: "I never expected there to be such hidden circumstances; it has been hard on you all."
"Sigh, perhaps this is fate; our Wu Clan was never meant for the Hunyuan Great Dao." Di Jiang concluded his statement, his tone filled with a resigned desolation.
After speaking, he did not forget to urge him repeatedly: "Fellow Daoist, I have only told you this secret today; you must absolutely, absolutely not tell outsiders!"
"After all, this is a painful matter for our Wu Clan and should not be spoken of to outsiders."
Daoist Hanhai expressed deep sympathy and understanding for the Ancestral Wu.
"Fellow Daoist Di Jiang, rest assured! I will never spread this matter!"
He patted his chest and guaranteed it with a solemn oath.
The next moment, other gods in the same group came to ask Daoist Hanhai: "Fellow Daoist, what were you talking about just now?"
"Why do Fellow Daoist Di Jiang and the others seem so dispirited?"
Just now, the Ancestral Wu had intentionally set up a barrier, so the other gods sitting nearby could not hear the conversation between Di Jiang and Daoist Hanhai.
This, instead, piqued everyone's curiosity.
Daoist Hanhai was very principled: "I promised Fellow Daoist Di Jiang that I could not tell outsiders the content of our conversation!"
Once he said this, everyone became even more curious.
The gods in the same group immediately said: "We are members of the 'Anti-Heaven' discussion group, so we don't count as outsiders; tell us about it."
"Uh... that seems to be true."
Daoist Hanhai hesitated for a moment and said: "Then you must absolutely not tell outsiders!"
"Just rest assured!"
And so, the members of the Anti-Heaven discussion group all learned of the Ancestral Wu's hidden hardship.
Then, during the subsequent free exchange time, they instantly turned this "shocking secret of the Wu Clan" into the latest topic of conversation, quietly notifying other gods they were familiar with.
"Fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist, I have a huge piece of news here, but you must absolutely not tell outsiders! It's about the Wu Clan..."
"Oh? Tell me quickly, I promise to keep it a secret!"
Just like that, it spread from ten to a hundred.
Not long after, almost all the gods in the Purple Heaven Palace knew this "inside story."
When everyone looked at the Thirteen Ancestral Wu, their gazes involuntarily carried a trace of sympathy and pity that was hard to conceal.
"Hmph, these guys, are they trying to trick us into taking the bait again?" The Five Elements Metal Qilin Kings, upon hearing this news, merely sneered, expressing high suspicion.
They had suffered at the hands of the Thirteen Ancestral Wu last time and knew well how shrewd the other side was.
There must be another reason why the Ancestral Wu were not severing their corpses.
"Could they be planning to trick someone and then pull off something big later?"
The more the Five Elements Metal Qilin Kings thought about it, the more they felt it was possible.
Daoist Hongjun's second sermon gradually drew to a close amidst the gods either succeeding in severing their corpses, gaining enlightenment on the Great Dao, or the Wu Clan's unique "tragic performance."
When the hundred years of answering questions were over, Hongjun's figure slowly dissipated on the high platform like water vapor, once again becoming that "Heavenly Dao Hongjun" tightly wrapped in countless chains of laws, silent and wordless.
Xuanqing's figure flickered, and he quietly stood before the high platform, replacing Hongjun's position from just a moment ago.
He swept his calm gaze over the gods below, especially those great beings who had just severed their three corpses, and nodded slightly to show his approval.
"Fellow Daoists, Principal Hongjun's sermon this time detailed the methods of the Immortal Dao and the principles of severing the three corpses to attain Hunyuan; I presume everyone has gained much."
Xuanqing's voice was gentle and clear, reaching the ears of every deity.
"Next, what I want to tell you about is another method of attaining the Dao, which we might call the 'Five Great Great Luo Law'."
"I hope this method can provide everyone with some different ideas for further study of the Great Luo Realm in the future."
Once these words were spoken, everyone held their breath and focused, quietly waiting for Xuanqing to preach.
Xuanqing said: "The so-called Five Greats refer to Taiji, Taisu, Taishi, Taichu, and Taiyi."
"These Five Greats represent the five key stages from 'all things and existence' reversing back to 'emptiness where nothing is empty,' and they are also the process by which the Great Da Da Luo Zhi Zun constantly tempers their own Great Dao and traces back to the origin."
"I call this process 'Reversing to the Great Nothingness'."
Xuanqing's voice began to become grand and distant, as if expounding the supreme principles from the beginning of the universe's creation.
"The first of the Five Greats is called Taiji Great Luo."
"This realm is the beginning of your attainment of the Great Luo Dao, encompassing all existence, and is also the foundation of perfection."
"Taiji possesses spirit, Qi, form, quality, and body, representing all things and existence, eternal and at ease."
"Reaching this realm, with a perfect Dao fruit, immortal and indestructible, one becomes a true Great Da Da Luo Zhi Zun, possessing the qualification to roam the river of time and space and overlook the changes of eras."
To expound the Great Dao more vividly, Xuanqing casually evolved a prosperous Great World.
"Taiji contains all existence, all things are formed, and the Great Dao is complete, just like this complete world."
"And after Taiji, comes Taisu!"
The next moment, the world Xuanqing evolved changed abruptly, and everything derived from the infinite myriad Daos was backtracking.
All things were like silk being pulled from a cocoon, shedding their "outer shells" and revealing only the essence of the Great Dao.
"Taisu is the beginning of quality!"
"Reverse the principle of 'Three begetting all things,' returning from 'ten thousand' to 'three'."
"Cultivating to this point requires penetrating the truth of all existence in the Great Dao to be able to reverse the Great Dao and see the most primordial 'quality,' or 'essence,' that constitutes heaven, earth, and all things."
"Mastering this 'quality' is like mastering the core code of all things' evolution; one thought can create all things, and one thought can return all things to their primordial quality, officially opening the door from 'existence' to 'non-existence,' which can be called a senior Great Luo."
Some veteran Great Luo and newly promoted Great Luo, hearing this, had thoughtful looks in their eyes; they vaguely felt that they seemed to have touched the edge of this realm.
Xuanqing continued: "The third is called Taishi Great Luo."
"Taishi is the beginning of form!"
As his voice fell, that world changed again, the entire world turning from solid to virtual, with only its form remaining.
"Reaching this realm, one pushes from 'three' to 'two'."
"The practitioner has successfully reversed the 'body' of all things and existence, as well as the 'quality' of the Great Dao that constitutes all things, and begins to move from the mysterious stage of 'having form and quality' to 'having form but no quality'."
"At this time, the Great Luo's own form of existence will undergo a fundamental transformation, no longer constrained by fixed form and material composition, and better able to discern the flaws in the 'body' and 'quality' of others' Great Dao."
Xuanqing said this, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over Daoist Yang Mei.
Back then, it was by relying on the characteristics of Taishi Great Luo that he reversed the three corpses of Hongjun and Yang Mei, making them reveal their original forms.
Daoist Yang Mei naturally understood what Xuanqing was referring to, and in his heart, he had a more intuitive understanding of the mystery of Taishi Great Luo.
"So that's how it is."
"The fourth is called Taichu Great Luo."
"Taichu is the beginning of Qi!"
Xuanqing flipped his hand, and the world in his palm disappeared completely, refined back into a mass of primordial Qi.
"This realm returns from 'two' to 'one'."
"For a Great Luo to reverse to this step, one must break through and transcend the 'body,' 'quality,' and 'form' of one's own Great Dao, eventually leaving only a 'Taichu Qi' that is primordial, indestructible, and creates all things."
"This 'Taichu Qi' has no form or appearance, is unconstrained and free, and thus can transform into ten thousand forms and appearances, with infinite marvelous uses."
"One crucial characteristic that Taichu Great Luo possesses is the ability to Dao-infect all gods!"
"What is Dao-infection?" A deity couldn't help but ask for guidance.
Xuanqing looked at him approvingly and explained: "The so-called Dao-infection means that the 'Dao-One Qi' of Taichu Great Luo can use its own Great Dao origin to subtly influence and even assimilate the Great Dao of other existences."
"This is not a forced reversal, but like spring rain moistening things, permeating silently, making them unconsciously lean toward your Great Dao, and eventually even becoming a part of your Great Dao."
"Hiss—"
Hearing this, a sound of gasping for air echoed in the hall.
Dao-infecting all gods!
The gods looked at Xuanqing with deeper awe and reverence.
They vaguely guessed that His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor had likely already reached, or even surpassed, the realm of Taichu Great Luo.
And the Taiwei gods and Immortal Dao immortals who had experienced the Battle of Mount Buzhou and were in the core area thought of the Heavenly Emperor's divine abilities after breaking the Nine-Bend Yellow River Array.
"Not a forced reversal? Then how did our three corpses, incarnations, and Dao bodies rebel during the Battle of Mount Buzhou!" The Immortal Dao great beings looked at Xuanqing with resentment.
They suddenly discovered that the Heavenly Emperor's method of attaining the Dao seemed specifically designed to counter the method of severing the three corpses.
At the first and second realms of Great Luo, perhaps severing the three corpses had more advantages.
Because the three corpses could seal other gods' ability to resolve their Dao bodies when they were cheating.
But by the third realm, Taishi Great Luo could directly reverse the essence of the enemy's three corpses, turning them into spiritual treasures.
You're cheating? I'll seal your cheat!
The fourth realm is even more exaggerated: Taichu Great Luo, Dao-infecting all gods, can turn others' three corpses to their own use.
This is no longer just sealing a cheat, but stealing someone else's cheat to use for oneself.
If this isn't targeting, what is?
"Could it be that the Heavenly Emperor was suppressed quite severely by the Dao Ancestor during the Taiji Great Luo and Taisu Great Luo stages, so he learned from the pain and specifically researched this means to counter the three corpses?"
The Immortal Dao great beings thought secretly.
They felt this guess was very reasonable!
"The fifth is called Taiyi Great Luo."
Xuanqing's voice became even more ethereal, as if coming from the distant primordial void.
"Taiyi is the beginning of spirit."
"Before the Qi is divided, it is silent and has no things; looking at it, one cannot see it; listening to it, one cannot hear it; this is 'non-existence'."
"Taiyi Great Luo represents the 'principle of Great Nothingness, emptiness where nothing is empty,' and is the ultimate manifestation of 'supreme emptiness'."
"This is the final step of the Great Luo's path of reversal from 'existence' to 'non-existence,' and it is also the most difficult step."
"The reason it is so is because after the Great Luo deeply reverses and returns to emptiness, they still need to return from 'non-existence'."
"This process is extremely dangerous; a slight carelessness will lead to complete Dao-assimilation, loss of true self, and getting lost."
Xuanqing's expression was serious, making the gods feel a tightness in their hearts.
At this moment, everyone thought of Hongjun.
Attaining Hunyuan is the fifth realm of the Immortal Dao, similar to Taiyi.
Hongjun's current state of merging with the Dao is very much like the Heavenly Emperor's description—merging with the Heavenly Dao and gradually losing his self.
"But his state also seems to have a hint of something unusual."
Wangshu, Zhunti, Nv Wa, Fu Xi, Di Jun, Tai Yi, Ming He, Yuan Huang, Zhen Yuanzi, and other Taiwei veterans understood Xuanqing's exposition more thoroughly.
They had long ago received Xuanqing's teachings.
It was just that at the time, Xuanqing's exploration of the fifth realm was not thorough enough, and he was worried about truly misleading everyone, so he didn't speak of it.
Now, inferring the Hunyuan Dao from the principles of Taiyi, is there such a possibility—that Hongjun merging with the Dao is to resist the danger of losing his self?
He willingly sits in the Purple Heaven Palace and is sealed by the gods, which seems to dilute his control over the Heavenly Dao. But his true purpose might be to use the power of the gods to help himself reinforce his Great Dao anchor point in reality!
"With the Primordial True Realm, infinite heavens, and the help of all Dao Lords, he is not only merging with the Heavenly Dao but also with the myriad Daos."
"The name 'Dao Ancestor' circulating in the world is the best manifestation of the 'existence' of the Great Dao; the 'Dao Ancestor' respectfully addressed by countless great gods is very different from one who calls himself that!"
The Taiwei veterans thought the more they thought about it, the more possible it seemed.
It looks like Hongjun lost his freedom, but he obtained the true Great Dao!
"If this guess is true, then the Heavenly Emperor might really be helping Hongjun attain the Dao!" The Taiwei veterans couldn't help but look at Xuanqing.
Was all this a coincidence, or did the Heavenly Emperor have a plan long ago?
Everyone was more willing to believe the latter.
When had the Heavenly Emperor ever made a wasted move?
"Uh, except when refining improper spiritual treasures."
Whether the gods were surprised or happy, thoughtful or worried, it did not affect Xuanqing.
He sat alone on the high platform, continuing to expound the principles of Taiyi.
"Although the Great Dao is dangerous, it can also be sought."
"If everyone walks to this step of Taiyi Great Luo, understands the supreme principle of Great Nothingness, and gives birth to an eternal true god in the emptiness, then one has broken through the boundary of existence and non-existence and officially stepped into the fifth realm of Great Luo."
Speaking of this, Xuanqing's finger pointed in the void, and the Taichu Qi constantly reversed until it returned to nothingness.
The next instant, the void shone with divine light, and a strong fluctuation attracted the attention of the gods.
Everyone looked at that "Eternal True God," only to see it with a round sky above its head, feet on square earth, holding a great axe, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.
"The Taiyi Great Luo of the fifth realm, is the Eternal True God born Pangu? So that's it, so that's it!"
The gods all realized, thinking of the final battle between Taiwei and the Immortal Dao.
At that time, four great Pangu had emerged!
With such a concrete reference, everyone had more confidence in the Heavenly Emperor's method of attaining the Dao.
Because every step had traces to follow, and every step was real and complete.
"Reaching this realm, theoretically speaking, one has achieved great transcendence."
Then, Xuanqing's tone changed: "However, due to the existence of the Great God Pangu, this theoretical great transcendence still needs to withstand the great test of the end of the era."
"Taiyi is not the end of the Great Dao; Pangu is!"
"From Taiji to Taiyi is the reversal and deep study from 'existence' to 'non-existence'."
"And when the Great Luo walks to the extreme of 'Taiyi' and regathers the true self in the 'emptiness where nothing is empty,' seeking back the 'true existence,' then the next step is to face the eternal Pangu directly!"
Xuanqing's voice suddenly became incomparably solemn and grave.
"Returning from nothingness, one shall see the True Pangu!"
"Reaching this step is the ultimate of the Great Luo Dao, the supreme achievement of 'existence and non-existence merged into one, perfect and unimpeded,' and an existence truly on par with the Great God Pangu!"
"Only by achieving Pangu can one be considered great eternity and great transcendence!"
Hearing this, the gods could no longer describe it with words.
They only had exclamation for the Heavenly Emperor's method of attaining the Dao, feeling only its grandeur!
After a long time, the 【Space Ancestral Wu】 Di Jiang couldn't help but ask: "May I ask the Heavenly Emperor, from Taiyi to eternity, after seeing the True Pangu, what is that great test?"
This question directly asked what was in everyone's hearts.
The gods all looked at Xuanqing.
And the other Ancestral Wu subconsciously looked at the Three Pure Ones.
They had also transformed into the Pangu True Body, and they had also seen the True Pangu.
But in the end, they were one move short, losing to the Three Pure Ones Pangu, and failed to see the great test of the True Pangu.
Xuanqing heard this and did not answer directly, only saying: "Pangu seeing Pangu, eternity seeing eternity, is the time of era change."
"You say, what could this great test be?"
The gods heard this and were thoughtful.
A great test that lets the era restart?
Everyone thought of two words in an instant—Axe Correction!
Achieving Pangu, hacking at each other in Chaos; whoever wins is the master of the next era!
The gods thought of this, their eyes brightened, and for a time, their blood boiled.
Before, it was always the True Pangu hacking at them, so after walking the Taiyi Great Dao and achieving eternity, can they go and Axe-Correct the True Pangu?
This is too satisfying!
Before attaining the Dao, the True Pangu transforms into the Primordial and has all things.
After attaining the Dao, the True Pangu carefully helps you Axe-Correct the Great Dao.
When you achieve eternity, the True Pangu spars with you, helping you move toward the next eternal era.
For a time, the gods were filled with emotion: "Truly the eternal creator of our Primordial True Realm!"
And just at this time, Fu Xi suddenly asked a fatal question: "May I ask the Heavenly Emperor, if one loses in the final great test, what will happen?"
This question was like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's heads.
Can one still lose the great test?
"You can, brother, you can." In this instant, the Thirteen Ancestral Wu remembered their own experiences, and they felt a sense of shared sorrow.
They hacked at each other in Chaos twice, and lost both times!
Although neither of these two times was the final great test, it also showed that when Pangu sees Pangu, it is definitely not a guaranteed win.
And the Three Pure Ones were clearly clearer about this answer.
"Judging from our experience, the Great God Pangu also seems not very serious, so it's really hard to say in what form the final great test will be conducted." The Three Pure Ones thought so.
The True Pangu has hacked at you for so long, can you really hack better than the True Pangu?
If you win, of course, everyone is happy.
If you lose...
"This question is really hard to answer; after all, I haven't reached that step yet."
Xuanqing pondered for a moment and spoke the truth, admitting: "However, reasonably speculating, if you lose, there are roughly two results."
"First, after you fail, you retreat to the Primordial, waiting for other Taiyi Great Luo to step into the eternal realm, and then team up to go to the Pre-Innate."
Is this ganging up on the True Pangu?
The gods were moved in their hearts, feeling that this result was not bad.
But everyone thought again, what if they ganged up on Pangu and still lost?
"Wouldn't we then become Chaos Demon Gods? This..." The gods thought about it and were terrified.
"Second, after you fail, the era still restarts, the True Pangu continues to be the dealer, and you, this Pangu, will become the best nourishment for the next era."
"With the power of two Pangu superimposed, the foundation of the Primordial True Realm in the next era will be more solid, and that era will be even more brilliant."
"And you certainly won't die, but after all, you are an eternal being; in the next era, you might be able to attain Pangu a second time and restart the era."
"Can Pangu attain it a second time?" The gods were all stunned.
Xuanqing nodded: "Theoretically, it is possible."
"Since in our inference, the eternal era is constantly changing, it shows that the Pangu who open the sky can also be continuous dealers."
"Whoever is the dealer opens the sky."
"If you win, the True Pangu is either liberated or goes to attain it a second time; if the True Pangu wins, you either gather people or go to attain it a second time."
"This process of era change might be the process of one Pangu after another constantly attaining the Dao."
"This is what is called, the Dao has no end!"
"Hiss~~" The gods heard this and gasped.
They thought that reversing the Five Greats and achieving eternity was grand enough.
Never expected that the change of the eternal era could also be the True Pangu self-attaining, or another Pangu attaining it a second time!
This Heavenly Emperor's method of attaining the Dao is a bit terrifying!
"Of course, the above conclusions are all theoretical and remain to be verified."
Xuanqing said: "Telling you all this is just to provide an idea, a reference."
"As for the specific situation, if you are interested, you can go to the Pre-Innate and ask the True Pangu in person."
At the end, Xuanqing told a cold joke.
The gods didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
We go to ask the True Pangu?
The scene at that time would probably be—the True Pangu says nothing, only Axe-Correcting.
Haven't even cultivated the Five Great Luo Realms clearly, what qualifications do we have to communicate the eternal Dao with the True Pangu?
"Your Majesty, I have another question."
Yang Mei spoke: "If the time of era restart comes, how should we conduct ourselves?"
As a former Space Destruction Mo Shen, Yang Mei was very concerned about this question.
Last time the era restarted, the Demon Gods were all finished.
To enter the current era, they could only choose to come ashore.
Then when the next era restarts, won't they be hacked to death by the new Pangu again?
Thinking that he would have to experience another "Skull-Opening Assembly," Yang Mei had a headache.
That kind of pain, he really didn't want to experience a second time!
"This question is asked well."
Xuanqing nodded lightly and said: "In my inference, at the time of era restart, those who can fully preserve themselves and enter the next era, besides the contemporary eternal Pangu, are only Taiyi Great Luo."
"Really?" The gods' eyes brightened.
"Indeed."
Xuanqing continued: "Taiyi Great Luo, having broken through the principle of existence and non-existence, is the gatekeeper of the eternal realm, and can also be an era leader, sitting and watching the rise and fall of the era."
"If opening the sky and changing the era is seen as the 'main plot,' then Taiyi leaders have the qualification to open independent 'side plots' in the boundless Chaos."
"Besides Pangu, the Dao has exceptions; that is what Taiyi Great Luo refers to."
Xuanqing's words made the gods' hearts burn with fire!
Everyone instantly felt that the Great Dao had a goal!
The eternal Pangu of the new era cannot be seen, but they have seen Taiyi leaders!
Even if the Heavenly Emperor, Dao Ancestor, and Demon Ancestor haven't reached this point yet, they definitely have the combat power of this realm!
Otherwise, where did the Pangu True Body come from?
"We understand, Taiyi leaders who possess the Pangu True Body are little Pangu; they possess such great power that they can withstand the karma of era change!"
Thinking this way, the gods present all understood.
"May I ask Your Majesty, from Taichu to Taiyi, besides merging with the Dao or self-assimilating into the Dao, are there any other ways?" The one asking this question was Nv Wa.
Xuanqing seemed not at all surprised by this.
He answered: "Yes!"
All Great Luo were greatly encouraged, and they bowed and said: "Please instruct us, Heavenly Emperor!"
When the Heavenly Emperor spoke of Taiyi Great Luo just now, he expressed the danger of breaking through this realm.
Everyone originally had doubts; after all, the choices of Hongjun and the Demon Ancestor were merging with the Dao and assimilating into the Dao, and the results hadn't been seen yet!
And since the Heavenly Emperor now says there are other methods, then there really are!
Xuanqing said: "Assimilating into the Dao is the determination of seeking life through death; this choice is the most dangerous. Merging with the Dao is a shortcut to achieving Hunyuan; the difficulty is much lower, but the price is as everyone has seen."
"Daoist Hongjun wants to attain the Hunyuan Dao, which requires us to help together, and the cost is huge."
"And the shortcut to achieving Taiyi lies in the point of 'giving birth to an eternal true god'."
The gods listened quietly.
Xuanqing asked: "The path of reversal, the principle of Great Nothingness, what is its goal?"
"Pangu!" The gods answered without hesitation.
"Right!"
Xuanqing said seriously: "So in the process of reversing the Five Greats, everyone must firmly 'fleece' the Great God Pangu!"
"Pfft~~"
Meng Meng Wu You, Ming He, Wang Chuan, Taishang, and Yuchen smiled knowingly.
And the gods also smiled one after another.
Why did His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor suddenly become unserious?
Only the Taiwei veterans were calm and composed.
This is the true Heavenly Emperor; what you saw before were all appearances!
But it must be said that even if it was an appearance, the Heavenly Emperor's personal charm made the gods admire him endlessly.
"If Chenxing were here to see the scene of the Holy Heavenly Emperor holding court, he would most likely sigh that the Heavenly Emperor had cultivated the Succubus Great Dao." The Taiwei veterans thought quite wickedly.
Xuanqing continued: "The principle of Taiyi, reversing to 'non-existence,' emptiness where nothing is empty."
"To avoid losing one's self and losing one's true nature, one needs to leave the most solid Dao markers in reality; this is the Great Dao anchor point for everyone's return."
"Then is there any Dao marker in this world more solid and powerful than the Great God Pangu?"
The gods nodded, deeply agreeing.
Daoist Yang Mei, who was also exploring the fifth realm, slapped his thigh: "Right, why didn't I think of that!"
Nv Wa heard this and was thoughtful.
"Then how can one closely connect oneself with the Great God Pangu?" Nv Wa asked.
Xuanqing pointed to the Three Pure Ones and said: "Like Daoist Three Pure Ones, go to the Pre-Innate and obtain the legacy of the Great God Pangu; the earlier, the better."
Once these words were spoken, the Three Pure Ones instantly became the focus of the entire audience.
"The identity of the Pangu Orthodox, it turns out it has such a use?" The gods muttered to themselves.
Pangu's one Qi transforms into the Three Pure Ones.
Their identity is something that reflects all heavens and is known throughout the universe.
Now, in the myriad worlds and endless time and space, I don't know how many myths about the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Sovereigns have been derived.
It turns out the version answer had long been placed before them, but everyone didn't practice the Five Greats method and couldn't think of this point at all.
And the Thirteen Ancestral Wu in the corner were silent.
They thought sourly: "We are also Pangu bloodline, we also have Pangu legacy, why didn't the Heavenly Emperor point us out? Is it because we lost in the Chaos hacking?"
After everyone digested this information for a while, Xuanqing continued:
"As long as you get the Pangu legacy and bind yourself with the Great God Pangu, you can learn from Daoist Three Pure Ones and reflect everything about yourself to the heavens, letting endless time and space have your legends."
"In addition, obtaining the Pangu legacy has another benefit."
Xuanqing met everyone's expectant gazes and pointed out a very important point: "That is, when you are in the fourth realm, you can use the characteristics of Taichu Great Luo to manifest the Pangu True Body."
"In this way, not only can you possess the strength of the fifth realm in advance, but you can also lay a solid foundation for giving birth to an eternal true god in the next stage, greatly increasing the possibility of Taiyi Great Luo's return!"
The gods listened and were all filled with admiration.
"The virtue of the Heavenly Emperor shines through the ages; we bow and thank the Heavenly Emperor for the grace of preaching."
The gods were about to bow, but Xuanqing reached out to stop them.
He smiled: "The Great Dao has no end; teaching and learning benefit each other."
"I am the first principal of the Heavenly Dao Academy and the first Heavenly Emperor of the Taiwei Heavenly Court; I should naturally open the door to a new era for the gods of heaven and earth and the infinite sentient beings."
"I hope Principal Hong's Hunyuan Dao and my Five Greats principles can help everyone go a step further and achieve the supreme Dao fruit."
"Next, I will tell you about the many details of the Five Greats Law; I will answer all questions, so please listen quietly."
"As you command!" The gods sat upright.
And so, the secrets of the Five Great Great Luo Law, as well as the final eternal realm, were like a magnificent scroll of cultivation, slowly unfolding before the gods under Xuanqing's narration.
From Taiji's encompassing all existence, to Taisu's tracing back to the essence, to Taishi's transcending form and quality, to Taichu's Dao-Qi returning to one, then to Taiyi's realm of emptiness, and finally to Pangu Great Luo's returning from non-existence to existence.
Every description of the realm and every detail was full of unimaginable wonders.
The gods listened, fascinated and agitated, as if they saw the endless scenery above the Great Luo.
Hongjun was a good teacher, and so was Xuanqing.
He led the gods to roam the river of the Great Dao, explaining the Five Greats method of attaining the Dao in detail for everyone, filling in the gaps bit by bit.
Especially those gods who had just severed their three corpses and were in high spirits, now that they had tasted the Heavenly Emperor's method of attaining the Dao, they felt their own insignificance, and a sense of awe for the Great Dao arose spontaneously.
Their love and respect for the Heavenly Emperor also grew deeper and deeper.
"If the Holy Heavenly Emperor didn't abdicate and could always lead the development of the Primordial, how good that would be!"
