"This is the final calamity..."

Qi Wuhuo murmured, recalling the vast picture that Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun had just demonstrated to him. It was magnificent and grand, just like the catastrophe and destruction vaguely written in the Taoist Canon, and just like the way of birth, existence, destruction and emptiness predicted by Buddhism, vast and boundless.

Before this final catastrophe, all the catastrophes that Qi Wuhuo had experienced and heard of were not worth mentioning.

On the one hand, there is a catastrophe caused by the desires of human hearts, and on the other hand, there is a catastrophe caused by the rotation and changes of the entire world. The two sides cannot be compared, so one side is only considered to be a quantitative catastrophe, while the other side is the end of all catastrophes and the end of all things in the world, which is the final catastrophe.

The Taoist was not immersed in this huge shock. He quickly calmed down and asked:

"Teacher, may I ask how to break through this ultimate calamity?!"

A hint of approval appeared in the eyes of [Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun].

Then he said calmly: "The final calamity is the final destination of all things. All things are emitting energy. Living things are emitting simple heat, and the sun and stars are emitting blazing fire. As more and more practitioners emerge, more vital energy is absorbed and exhaled, and more energy is emitted. In the end, these forces accumulate together and are enough to ignite the six realms."

"This is the catastrophe of thermal annihilation, and it is unavoidable."

"The stronger and larger the tribe, the closer it is to this calamity. The rest will experience the calamity of cold annihilation. As yin and yang rotate, all living things in the world will fall and be annihilated. Then the world will collapse and eventually turn into the original chaotic state, waiting for a new creation of the world."

"My original plan was to cut off all the lives of the world at the beginning of the Kaihuang Tribulation... in order to try to erase the process of moving towards the final tribulation. However, the closer I got to this step, the more I fell into thinking. In the end, some things I encountered made me stop my original plan."

"If we kill all the people in that calamity era as the price to gradually stop the heat and cold calamities, and then use some means to try to slowly calm them down, so that the trajectory of the entire world can return from the final calamity to the state of the first calamity era..."

"It seems that I saved the entire world from calamity, but for the people of that era, what is the difference between what I did and the calamity itself?"

[Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun] looked at the disciple in front of him and said calmly:

"Cut off the lives of the common people in that calamity era, so that they can reincarnate and start over."

"But the final calamity also destroyed them, and then reshaped the heaven and earth. For them, falling under my sword and falling in the calamity seem to be no different. The meaning of the era lies above all living things. If I erase all living things in order to protect the era and the era, the era itself will only be left with a void."

"It was while walking through the myriad worlds that I realized these things and embarked on a new path. I finally let go of my own extreme path and became the person you are familiar with..."

"As for how to break this calamity, perhaps it depends on you."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun looked at the disciple in front of him. His expression seemed much gentler than before, and gradually became familiar to the Taoist. He said: "In the end, all things rotate and the eras change. The one who created the world again is the giant born from the World Egg, and the one who created the world in this era is Taiyi."

"That is to say, Taiyi's authority and power include the status and experience of creating the world..."

Qi Wuhuo asked: "In other words, is it possible for the former Taiyi to stop the final calamity?"

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun stroked his sword and said, "He can, but he won't do it."

"In the ancient times, Taiyi still existed, but at that time, Taiyi was powerful and confident. He would definitely reach the end of the two paths of [Transcendence] or [Origin]. At that time, he would return to the origin of the world and would naturally recognize that the change of eras was the norm. He would not care about the death and suffering of all living things."

"Although he has the possibility and opportunity to reverse the catastrophe, he will definitely not do it."

"At that time, I was still walking on the Great Dao. I was not strong enough to ignore Taiyi's authority and complete the final calamity."

"And now I am..."

He lowered his eyes and said calmly, "I can vaguely sense their strength through your aura. After a quick estimate, with our current strength, we may be able to stop or reverse this matter if we join forces."

"But we have walked on the path of transcendence. The change of eras and the reshaping of the world will not affect me. After the new era and the new world are opened up, the Three Pure Ones will still exist, even the original existence. But as a price, we will not be able to stop the final calamity."

"Those who are detached cannot break the final calamity; and those without authority find it difficult to break the final calamity."

"When we have the ability to stop the final calamity without killing all living things, we have already lost the position to stop the final calamity. Only the creatures of this era have the position and qualifications to stop the final calamity, but they must have the sharpness comparable to ours to accomplish this task."

"And even then, it's just the most basic qualifications."

“Whether it can be done, no one knows.”

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun looked at the Taoist in front of him with a calm expression and said, "This is the path and direction of "Transcendence through the Extreme" of my teacher. Although I have told you everything, it seems that it is not of much help and benefit to you."

Qi Wuhuo exhaled slowly and said, "Teacher, it is enough for me to see the final calamity."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun said: "I of this era, as well as Yuanshi and Yuchen, didn't tell you this?"

Qi Wuhuo nodded and said, "Disciple only knows that there is a final calamity."

"I also know about the Buddhist cycle of creation, existence, destruction and emptiness, and the Taoist cycle of six calamities, but I don't know the specific content of the final calamity. I thought the final calamity was similar to all the previous calamities. I didn't expect... that the world would return to chaos and a new era would be created."

[Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun] said calmly:

"It seems that it hasn't been long since you broke through to the Great Level and reached your current state."

“They don’t want to put too much pressure on you.”

"However, I think I should mention it to you. According to what I have seen, the final calamity will take about 20,000 years. And in the calamity era you have seen, at least before the final calamity comes, all things in the world are peaceful. If my prediction is correct..."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun paused and said calmly, "There are three of us outside now."

"The so-called Three Pure Ones that exist in the world are not the real body."

"Is it right?"

!!!

Qi Wuhuo paused slightly.

He knew about this. Be it the Great Lord of Shangqing, the Jade Purity Yuanshi Tianzun, or his teacher the Supreme Daode Tianzun, none of them were their original bodies. It seemed that even they themselves did not know where their original bodies were.

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun glanced at Qi Wuhuo and said, "It seems that I guessed right."

"Although I don't know what they are doing, they must have done something to suppress the final calamity, so their real bodies are not here. You can ask them later to see what they are doing..."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun looked at the disciple in front of him.

Qi Wuhuo lowered his eyes. Everything he knew in the secret realm of Tushita Palace this time was like a whirlpool that swept away all his past knowledge. Just adding the content of [The Final Tribulation] directly brought him an enormous shock.

He suddenly understood some things——

Why does Jade Pure Yuanshi Tianzun always warn Shangqing Da Daojun to take less action to avoid causing unnecessary trouble?

Why didn't the teachers and others kill Taiyi immediately when he returned?

Perhaps the teacher and the others had intended to control Taiyi's authority from the beginning.

But no one expected that Qi Wuhuo at that time would directly transform the Taiyi authority into the Taiyi body.

But more doubts arise, such as where are the true bodies of the three teachers. For example, Master Xuandu once said that it was after eight thousand years ago that the teachers began to completely leave the sky and travel around the world. It was also at that time that Kunpeng succeeded Taishang Laojun.

What happened eight thousand years ago?

And pictures after pictures appeared in his mind. The eras rotated and changed, all things were extinguished, the world collapsed and retreated. Pictures like a giant egg kept flying before his eyes. The Taoist's expression gradually became calm and quiet, and Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun said:

"You should know from what I told you that if you can step into the Pure Land within these 20,000 years, you can be free from the outside world. From then on, the destruction of the world has nothing to do with you. When the era restarts, you can watch it calmly and it won't hurt you."

His voice paused.

Qi Wuhuo remained silent and shook his head. The scene in front of him faded away and became the only choice.

He exhaled, and finally the huge pressure brought by the scene of the era's annihilation was swept away by him, so his mind was still clear, and his heart of Tao was still stable, so he answered as he did before: "Disciple holds the authority of Taiyi, and will overcome the disaster as he did in the past."

"If I don't break this calamity, I will never be able to attain enlightenment."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun looked at him deeply, with a hint of smile on his face. He nodded slightly and said, "That's right. It seems that I don't have to give you the sword I promised to give you, because you already have it. Such a heart of Tao is more suitable for you than the sword in my hand."

"As for where is this sword?"

"Come and see."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun waved his hand to let his disciple come over, but at this moment, he suddenly jumped up, and pressed down towards the Taoist with his fingers like swords. This attack seemed decisive and extremely ruthless, and it contained a majestic sharpness that had faintly exceeded the level that the peak of the great grade could deal with.

It is the iconic magical power of Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun in the ancient times!

Qi Wuhuo defended instinctively, crossing his arms in front of him to block the sword.

boom!!!

The whole world was in turmoil, and the great-level Qi collapsed under the sword energy of [Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun]. It seemed that it had no defense at all. But at this moment, Qi Wuhuo found that another force had replaced it in his body, rising up and flowing and changing in his body.

then--

Directly blocked the sudden attack from [Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun]!

Directly deflect the sword finger of Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun, and even turn it around naturally to create an opportunity for counterattack.

Qi Wuhuo was slightly stunned.

This is, the aura of the Supreme Being? !

This spontaneous defense was actually the Imperial Qi, but it was different from the Imperial Qi in the past that just barely circulated in the body. At this moment, the Imperial Qi was no longer like the moon in the well or the flower in the water, but was constantly being born in Qi Wuhuo's body with his breathing.

Each breath is slightly more powerful than the previous one.

Each breath is more powerful than the previous one.

It was as if the controlling energy had already taken root, sprouted, and begun to grow in his body.

Just like ordinary breathing exercises, your own vital energy will be nourished and strengthened.

The aura of the Imperial Master will continue to grow stronger as time goes by, and one day, the aura of the Imperial Master will completely fill Qi Wuhuo's body. At that time, he will be the true Imperial Master.

In other words, in just a moment, the gap between Qi Wuhuo and Yu Zun had changed from the distance between heaven and earth to a matter of minutes. How could this not make the Taoist slightly surprised and a little confused?

"Haha, disciple, don't you understand yet?"

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun smiled slightly.

Qi Wuhuo said: "My disciple is dull, but this Imperial Aura doesn't seem to be that easy to cultivate."

"If power is obtained for nothing or is directly bestowed upon you, it will be lost one day."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun said calmly: "Get it for nothing? If I could give something like the Imperial Aura at will, it would have spread all over the world long ago. But if it was given by someone else, how could it flow so smoothly when a battle suddenly came? How could it defend itself spontaneously?"

At this moment, the world around them was rippling, and the body of the Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun in front of him began to blur, as if he had consumed a lot of energy. Facing the confusion and doubts of his disciples, the Tianzun, who was wearing a dark golden Taoist robe and had a calm and calm expression, smiled and said:

"Didn't the future calamity you just saw include 20,000 years of cultivation?"

!!!

Qi Wuhuo was startled, his pupils contracted, and an extremely incredible thought arose in his heart:

"Could it be that..."

Kaihuang Mojie Tianzun smiled.

Just like that old man.

Then, he wrote lightly:

"It is just like a dream. After experiencing all the things, seeing the final calamity is nothing but illusion."

"But who said that these 20,000 years of practice were also fake?"

"Um?"
