Chapter 414: Returning with a Vow

"Still only at the Responding to Heaven Realm, still a big gap from Spirit Travel, I have no way to take back my physical body?."

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan took a long time to recover: "Before reaching Spirit Travel, you can't even get too close to your physical body, otherwise you will definitely be soul-locked again."

Hearing this sentence, Ji You couldn't help but raise his head and stare at the sky: "But I felt the Heavenly Dao was incomparably silent when I was charging the realm just now, and there was no harvest."

"It is covered by the night, and plus it was already weak, the laws have begun to gradually lose their influence on this world, and the induction between heaven and man is naturally non-existent."

"Then how can I continue to practice and break through the realm?"

"Go see the night."

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan raised his hand and pointed to the boundless night: "Cultivators realize the Dao by realizing the laws of heaven and earth, turning the power of rules into their own use, and at the same time, their spiritual souls sublimate based on their understanding of the laws of the world. Although the night in front of you is the Heavenly Dao refined by the Remnant Race Holy Emperor, it still needs laws to operate after being released, maintaining Qingyun's stability. The foundation is still there. In fact, the sages of our race perceived the Remnant Race Heavenly Dao in ancient times to practice, which was called the Fire Thief by the Remnant Race."

Ji You looked behind him upon hearing this, his eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

Before successfully fixing the Dao, he had closed his induction on his own, for fear of going into a dead end.

So he was just looking at the night sky with his eyes before, and only at this moment, with his spiritual soul as a bridge, did he suddenly feel that surging power of laws.

That feeling was like facing a surging tide, making people feel shocked, but while shocked, he had some questions.

"Can the Remnant Race Heavenly Dao be easily perceived by humans?"

"It no longer has its own will, it is just a tool held in the hands of the Remnant Race Holy Emperor, and there is no distinction between good and evil."

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan turned his head to look at him again after speaking: "Ji You, your talent is extremely high, and your understanding of the Heavenly Dao has always been thorough. Now that this ancient Heavenly Dao is boiling, the power of rules is fully revealed, which is actually a good thing for you to quickly improve your realm, because you will never have the chance to see such boiling laws again."

Chen Fuzi narrowed his eyes upon hearing this and added: "But be cautious, the Remnant Race will discover you from your induction between heaven and man, you must pay attention not to be discovered."

Ji You stared at the rolling black night and nodded slightly.

Understood, husband-before-invasion...

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan stroked his long beard at this time: "If you want to see the night, you have to return to Qingyun, so the next problem is your great vow to return, do you have any clues?"

Ji You looked back at the two of them and said: "What are the requirements? It can't be just anything, right."

"You have to be clear about what the Heavenly Dao needs now. Just like after Cui Lang died, the Night Watcher was cut off, Yan Liang knew that the Heavenly Dao needed a new Night Watcher, so he made a vow to go down to the world and took in Fang Jincheng..."

Chen Fuzi: "?"

Ji You looked at Chen Fuzi upon hearing this: "Then what are the restrictions?"

As the former Abbot of Spirit Sword Mountain, the Appraisal Master of the previous generation, and an immortal who had ascended, this old man had been hiding in Fengzhou and doing nothing.

So Ji You knew that returning by vow must have restrictions.

Chen Fuzi spoke softly upon seeing this: "Besides returning to the world to fulfill the vow, the vow-maker cannot be involved in too much karma other than the great vow, otherwise they will be punished. Back then, when Shuyi was attacked, I forced a move and was punished, and the cracking of my spiritual soul has not healed until now, so for these years, besides passing on the inheritance to you and Fang Jincheng, I can't do anything."

"Is there anything else besides this?"

"If the great vow is not fulfilled, you will have your soul scattered and disappear from heaven and earth from then on."

Ji You looked at Chen Fuzi: "You...?"

Chen Fuzi laughed, and after being heroic, he nodded indifferently: "Not bad, my time is indeed running out."

"It's all going to be gone, you are quite calm."

"Because I have no regrets. Like Shuyi, I was extremely talented since childhood, with amazing cultivation speed. After my father passed away, I took over the Spirit Appraisal and became the Abbot, intending to finish my life without sadness or joy, and ascend with my predecessors. But why on earth did I want to ascend, and what would it be like after ascending, I knew nothing about. So for those years, I lived without sadness or joy, a hundred years like a day, looking back, there was nothing to remember, until Cui Lang passed away, I knew that things in this world should be divided into two kinds, one is what others want me to do, the other is what I want to do myself. These few years I have been extremely smooth, teaching and educating people like an ordinary old man, watching those children grow up, living incomparably comfortably, except for being unable to drink alcohol, there are no regrets."

Chen Fuzi said frankly, his face full of relief.

Ji You could understand what he meant, because his arrogant ghost was also like this.

Because she was without sadness or joy, decades like a day, so she awakened her talent for running away from home after meeting him, and began to have her own ideas.

Not everyone in this world wants to live forever, there are always people who hear the Dao in the morning and can die in the evening.

Just as the two fell into memories, the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan spoke quietly from the side: "The topic has gone too far, the important things haven't been finished, you are so confused, no wonder you chose Fang Jincheng."

Chen Fuzi shook his sleeves angrily: "What else did I not say? You do it!"

The old Abbot turned to look at Ji You: "Regarding the great vow, besides being compatible with the Heavenly Dao, the most important thing is that your great vow must be made from the heart to be effective. The Heavenly Dao observes everything and will not be deceived by lies."

"This is indeed true, high-sounding great vows will not be effective..."

Chen Fuzi found that he had indeed forgotten this, his arrogance disappeared and he said: "I do have a suggestion, you can listen to it."

Ji You raised his head: "Please speak, Fuzi."

"Now that the Remnant Race has revived and the people are in dire straits, you are going because of this, so naturally you can make a vow because of this to resist the Remnant Race, which happens to be compatible with the needs of the Heavenly Dao, and the success rate should be extremely high."

"This statement... is indeed not bad."

The old Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan rarely agreed with his words and nodded in affirmation.

The Remnant Race Holy Emperor wants to refine the Heavenly Dao and re-enslave all races. This is their current greatest calamity. All wills of resistance will be answered, and if the great vow is related to the Remnant Race, it is also just the right time.

At this time, hearing the singing of the two, Ji You couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Made from the heart, compatible with the Heavenly Dao, but besides fulfilling the vow, one cannot be involved in too much karma, and if the vow fails, the soul will be scattered.

To be honest, the rules for returning by vow are actually extremely strict, and the first two are particularly difficult.

After all, the Dao of Heaven takes from those who have more than enough to make up for those who have less, while the Dao of Man is not so, taking from those who have less to serve those who have more, the two have always been incompatible.

And the latter two rules are even more mutually restrictive.

Because if you want to do more things and gain greater freedom, you must make a grander vow, the wider the relationship, the more you can act freely, but at the same time, the greater the great vow, the higher the failure rate.

Chen Fuzi's suggestion is to place the great vow on resisting the Remnant Race, which is indeed a good choice.

Ji You pondered for a long time, his brows sometimes furrowed, sometimes relaxed, looking at Chen Fuzi and the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan.

"Do you have any questions? Just say it."

"Nothing, we can start."

Ji You said while starting to hold his breath and calm his spirit, and then raised his head to face the Heavenly Dao directly.

With spiritual soul as a direct view, the Heavenly Dao is like a white giant dragon, entrenched on the endless whiteness, its huge body like a continuous mountain range.

Ji You had once visited the Demon Race with the Great Xia delegation and had seen the most magnificent One Hundred Thousand Great Mountains in Qingyun, and the magnificence brought to him by the shape of the Heavenly Dao in front of him was even more so.

But just as the old doctor said, the current Heavenly Dao is truly dying, if it weren't for careful perception, one would even feel that it is just a huge dead object.

After observing for a long time, Ji You narrowed his eyes, and as the mysterious light whistled around his body, the induction between heaven and man opened.

Seeing this scene, the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and Chen Fuzi knew that he had decided to make a vow, so they retreated a few steps in unison, leaving space for him, and then looked up.

In their sight, as Ji You's heart's thoughts were perceived by the heavens, a magnificent immortal light was received.

Ji You in the induction between heaven and man instantly felt a magnificent and irresistible force strike, and his whole body was suddenly pulled up.

Seeing this scene, the two in the white world couldn't help but narrow their eyes.

Whether Ji You's heart's thoughts would be verified by the Heavenly Dao, they were also hard to determine.

Because he had repeatedly emphasized after his revival that he just wanted to go back and die with the people he wanted to die with. If his heart's thoughts of cutting the Remnant Race on behalf of the heavens were not that strong, then the response rate would become extremely small.

More importantly, the Heavenly Dao is too weak now, whether it can still have the strength to respond to Ji You's vow, they also don't know.

"You said if..."

"Boom!!!!"

The old Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan was just about to open his mouth to communicate with Chen Fuzi, when the words in his mouth were suddenly interrupted by a tremor of the Heavenly Dao.

And in front of their eyes, the dying Heavenly Dao suddenly supported its huge body, as if trying its best to raise its head, and that huge and vast feeling instantly rushed towards them.

At the junction of Qingzhou and Lingzhou, the Yuepo Plateau northeast of the Great Wilderness Forest.
