The long distance that once took him months to travel could now be covered in just one step.

Standing outside Xuandu Temple, looking at the Xuanfa Mountains hidden in the night, the moonlight fell on Zhou Qing's face, dim and uncertain.

"Let me see what's going on..."

Zhou Qing quietly entered Xuandu Temple without disturbing anyone, and came to the place where the Tai Chi diagram was located alone.

He walked slowly into the house and saw the Tai Chi diagram placed on the altar.

This destiny weapon was as quiet as ever, but unlike before, Zhou Qing could no longer see through the artifact.

I still remember that before, the Tai Chi diagram looked like a three-tribulation immortal weapon, without any flaws.

However, after Qingshou Tianzun came here and paid homage to the Tai Chi diagram, he no longer pretended.

"Hello, senior." Zhou Qing bowed to the Tai Chi diagram.

An artifact of this level is already equivalent to a real life, and is at the level of destiny. Even the Taoist master must maintain respect when facing it.

It is not an exaggeration for Zhou Qing to call him a senior.

The Tai Chi diagram did not react, but Zhou Qing did not care. He continued, "I learned some things by chance. I have a certain understanding of the truth about Xuan Huang Dao Zun being able to bear the destiny, the existence of the destiny fruit, etc."

"Excuse me, I came here today to ask you a question."

"The path of the Taoist master, what can you teach me, senior?"

When Zhou Qing said this, the Tai Chi diagram finally responded.

I saw the Yin and Yang energies flowing on the diagram, and then a palm-sized human-shaped shadow wrapped in the Yin and Yang energies appeared above the Tai Chi diagram.

This is the god of the Tai Chi diagram. This artifact, which has been passed down in Xuandu Temple for nearly ten thousand years, has finally shown its true side.

"It seems that person is indeed you."

It is ethereal, lofty, majestic and vast, as if the voice comes from outside the world.

Zhou Qing's heart moved, and he asked:

"Senior, do you know my origins?"

"I don't know. You don't need to ask me about your origins and your many doubts. I didn't know much about you before."

The Taijitu deity said, "I am waiting for a certain creature to appear. Whether it is a man or a woman, a human or a demon, and when it will appear, all are still unknown."

"He told me to do this, I just followed his orders."

Zhou Qing couldn't help but feel disappointed when he heard this. It seemed that he couldn't get any answers from the Tai Chi diagram.

And if Zhou Qing had not told him about the Fruit of Destiny, the Tai Chi Diagram might still have ignored him.

The "he" mentioned by the Tai Chi deity is naturally the founder of Tai Shang Taoist Palace, one of the oldest bearers of heaven's mandate, Tai Shang.

Throughout the universe, inside and outside of Taoism, only the order of the Supreme Being can make the Tai Chi diagram unconditionally obey.

As for whether the Taijitu deity was deliberately hiding something and was unwilling to tell Zhou Qing something...

So what if it is? So what if it isn’t?

Could it be possible that Zhou Qing could force the Tai Chi diagram deity? Besides, at this point, there was really no need for such an existence to deceive Zhou Qing.

"Senior, I want to know, what should I do next?"

Zhou Qing asked: "Or in other words, what kind of path has the Grand Master planned for me?"

"You are wrong." The Taijitu deity shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know what your path is, and it is not planned by the Supreme or other Destiny Realms."

"At the very beginning, everything now was destined. This is your path, and the choice you made. Tai Shang and the others are all following the will of heaven. The one who truly opened up and walked on this path is you."

“It’s the path I chose…”

Zhou Qing seemed to understand something in his heart, as if he had grasped something.

“You should also ask yourself what to do next.”

The Tai Chi diagram deity continued, "There is only one thing I can do for you, to help you once. This is also my mission to stay here."

"Before this, I didn't know what to do for you. It was only after seeing you this time that I finally understood."

"That thing is to kill you, and then spread all the concepts that make up your existence to the past, present, and future with the power of the Supreme Being."

"That's all I can do. You need to solve other problems by yourself."

This is the truth behind the third picture that predicts the future, and it is the reason why the Tai Chi diagram killed Zhou Qing.

It's not that he really wants to kill him, but rather he is helping him. It's just that this way of helping is somewhat unique.

Zhou Qing: "The supreme power of existence?"

"Yuanshi is the starting point, Lingbao is the end point, and Taishang is the beginning and the end, representing existence, development, eternity, time and space. The past, present and future are all in it."

The past cannot fully represent the origin. The starting point is the origin. The origin is the "past" of the past.

The same goes for Lingbao. Lingbao is the “future” of the future.

All time, space, process, and existence apart from the two points of “beginning” and “end” are symbols of Tai Shang.

The Tai Chi diagram deity further explained: "After the concepts that make up your existence spread to the past, present and future, you completely disappeared, but you also achieved a state of being omnipresent, spanning the past, present and future. This is immortality without existence or non-existence."

Both disappearing and existing, perhaps other destiny-level powers can also do this, but the power of the Supreme to survive is undoubtedly the most professional. This is the symbol of the Supreme.

By now, Zhou Qing finally understood why what was waiting for him when he arrived in the Xuanhuang Realm was the Tai Chi Diagram, rather than the Yuanshi Banner or the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

Tai Chi diagram is the most suitable way to kill him.

"Your Dao is very special. Only in this state can you have the opportunity to become a Dao master. If you want to practice slowly on your own, it is very likely that you will have no hope in this lifetime."

Zhou Qing exhaled lightly: "The Way of Hunyuan Wuji..."

This is indeed the path he chose.

"Then may I ask, Senior, after all the concepts that make up me have spread to the past, present, and future, how can I return?"

"I can kill you, but I can also help you return." The Tai Chi figure god said:

"But if you want to become a Taoist master, you need to complete this step by yourself. If I resurrect you, then all this will be meaningless and you won't make any progress."

The Tai Chi diagram killed Zhou Qing and then resurrected him. If it was so easy to become a Taoist master, then the Tai Chi diagram would have opened related businesses long ago and allowed the Tai Shang Taoist Palace to dominate the heavens.

This is not as simple as dying and coming back, but it requires one to sublimate oneself in a state of both disappearance and existence.

It is meaningless to simply die without any other achievements or progress.

"In addition, you were once a four-tribulation transcendent immortal. This is of great importance to you. After your death, the chance of transcendence you carried with you is an opportunity for you to see beyond the Dao."

"A transcendent immortal?" Zhou Qing nodded slightly. He was not surprised by this.

The greatest significance of the Four Tribulations Transcendental Immortality is that after you cultivate to the Yuan Realm, you have one more chance than others to become a Taoist master.

It is only natural that it would be useful to Zhou Qing as well.

The Taijitu deity said, "There is a kind of essence of existence. If you have the opportunity to come into contact with it, it may be able to inspire you. That is the innate gods and demons."

"The innate gods and demons are the Tao itself. After they die, their states are somewhat similar to your state after I killed you."

"If you can understand this, it should help you return on your own."

Zhou Qing listened quietly to the Tai Chi diagram's instructions. Although this god of instruments did not know his origins, with his high level of realm, after seeing Zhou Qing, he could actually see through many things and give effective instructions without any problem.

After hearing the Tai Chi diagram mention the innate gods and demons, Zhou Qing suddenly had an idea in his mind and felt suddenly enlightened, he murmured to himself.

"The innate gods and demons are the Tao..."

"Innate gods and demons are life forms of the Great Dao. No matter how they are born, there must be a Dao corresponding to them between heaven and earth. The nature of this Dao is the true Dao of heaven and earth, not the Dao of practitioners."

The Tai Chi diagram god said these words again.

Yes, the innate gods and demons are the Tao, so if Zhou Qing is transformed into an innate god and demon, doesn’t it also mean that he has been transformed into the Tao?

Practitioners attain the status of the Lord of Dao, and their illusory Dao fruit is transformed into reality, making their own Dao no less superior to the eternal Dao of the heavens.

After Zhou Qing transformed into an innate god and demon, his Tao became equivalent to the objective Tao. There was only a difference in level, but in essence it was the same as the Tao of the heavens.

As a being at the level of destiny, the Tai Chi diagram deity will certainly not make mistakes on this point and is quite authoritative.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Because only the great Dao of heaven and earth can give birth to innate gods and demons that are one with the Dao. When Zhou Qing rebelled against the innate and transformed into an innate god and demon, the essence of his life changed and he also became a life of the great Dao.

The foundation of its existence also became the Tao.

In fact, Zhou Qing was not worried about whether he could come back after being killed by the Tai Chi diagram.

With the [Immortal Light of the Soul] and the [Future Dao Fruit] he just obtained, he can borrow the innate Dao Fruit of Gods and Demons. Death is not an end or the final destination for Zhou Qing. He will definitely come back alive.

But as I said, coming back alive is not the most important thing. What is important is that after coming back alive, you can go one step further. Otherwise, it would be a waste of your death.

The most crucial thing is what to do after "death" in order to achieve enlightenment.

The Tai Chi diagram could not give Zhou Qing clear guidance at this step because this was his own path.

If it were someone else, the Tai Chi diagram would be able to teach more, but Zhou Qing's origins were very special, and He couldn't see everything. This step could only be accomplished by Zhou Qing himself.

However, the Tai Chi diagram also gave Zhou Qing inspiration.

If one first transforms into Tao, and then seeks to elevate this Tao to the level of the Great Dao of the Heavens, the difficulty would be different from that of a practitioner becoming the Lord of Tao.

The avenues are both independent of each other and form a whole. Each avenue is outside the avenue compared to other avenues! This can be seen from the fact that those avenue masters will fall into eternal perdition and eventually become part of the avenue.

The only thing that can exist outside of Tao is Tao.

After Zhou Qing transformed into the Tao, didn't he naturally come to the position outside the Tao? The innate gods and demons are the Tao, this is an unchangeable fact, whether they are born innate gods and demons, or transformed after birth, it is the same.

And before all things happened, when the heavens were not yet created, the great way of heaven and earth also came into being from nothing, and slowly developed from its prototype to its complete form to its current level.

This shows that the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth will also grow and have the characteristic of automatic perfection.

After Zhou Qing transformed into Tao, it was equivalent to becoming a part of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. However, he was incomplete and only had a prototype, an illusory Great Dao. However, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth as a whole was flawless and should not have any shortcomings or defects.

The great ways of the heavens may have differences in power, and the way of killing is definitely more lethal than the way of life, but there is no difference in levels.

This is because the Tao is one and coexists harmoniously, and there will not be a situation where one side is "high" and the other side is "low".

But after Zhou Qing integrated into the Dao as a whole, the Dao's shortcomings emerged and the Dao was no longer perfect.

In order to eliminate such imperfections, other great ways of heaven and earth will feed back to Zhou Qing, allowing him to move towards perfection and restore harmony to the great ways.

The great ways are one, and other great ways will "irrigate" Zhou Qing's way with their essence. Driven by the great ways of the heavens, his growth rate will definitely be quite fast.

And after taking all the Daos as food and proving one's own Dao, only then can one attain the true all-encompassing and all-pervading Hunyuan Wuji Dao.

No wonder the Tai Chi diagram says this is the only way for Zhou Qing to become a Taoist master.

In fact, normally speaking, after Zhou Qing transformed into an innate god and demon and became a part of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, because his level was not as high as the real Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, he should have been swallowed up by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth at the first moment instead of feeding back to him.

The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is perfect now and does not need anyone to complete it. Zhou Qing is superfluous and at his level he is not qualified to coexist harmoniously with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

But the problem is that after Zhou Qing's death, the power of the Supreme Being maintained his existence. This is a power of destiny. The Great Dao cannot destroy or devour him.

Since it is impossible to devour it, then under the operation of the order of the Great Dao, the only option left is to complete Zhou Qing's Dao and make the Great Dao complete again...

After being killed by the Tai Chi diagram, Zhou Qing will enter a state where the past, present and future are everywhere, which coincides with the essential state of the Great Dao of the Heavens.

In such a state, the innate god and demon named Zhou Qing, the Tao he represents, spans ancient, present and future, and coexists with other great ways of heaven and earth.

How long they have existed is how long Zhou Qing's Way has existed.

Both in essence and surface, it is almost exactly the same as the great way of heaven and earth.

At the same time, this also has an advantage. To others, only a moment may have passed, but Zhou Qing has actually existed for endless years. The great Dao of heaven and earth is feeding back to him in the past, present and future at the same time, and his terror can be fulfilled immediately.

Zhou Qing fell into deep thought. In this case, it was necessary to use [Future Dao Fruit] to borrow the Dao Fruit of the innate god and demon "Zhou Qing".

This should be the real function of this golden finger in this level.

Of course, this is still Zhou Qing’s speculation, and the facts remain to be verified.

But the innate divine and demonic fruit is absolutely necessary, there is no doubt about that.

Another question is, Zhou Qing roughly knows the meaning of [Future Dao Fruit], but what about the Tree of Destiny? The prophet of the future specifically reminded Zhou Qing to get this tree, so it must have its own role in proving the Dao Master.

"I will pay attention to the matters concerning the innate gods and demons, but senior, I still have some doubts."

Zhou Qing asked directly: "What is the function of the Tree of Destiny?"

His question undoubtedly exposed the fact that he possessed the Tree of Destiny.

But this is totally irrelevant. In the battle for the Fruit of Destiny, the Tai Chi diagram also participated along with Tai Shang. He already knew the existence of the Tree of Destiny and that it would be taken away by someone in the future.

Now that Zhou Qing is here, and Taijitu is sure that he is the one he has been waiting for, then who has the Tree of Destiny? Is there any need to say it? The Taijitu God was silent for a moment before saying, "The Tree of Destiny and the fruit are miracles that no one has ever thought of. They are things directly bred by destiny. At first, they thought that the Destiny Fruit could have an effect on the Destiny Realm, but the truth is disappointing."

Zhou Qing couldn't help but ask, "Grand Senior and the others have already come to that point. Do they still have any desires?"

"Carrying the destiny is a realm beyond the end. It is already the final realm. There is no higher than this. However, they also have problems."

The Tai Chi diagram deity shook his head: "You don't need to worry about these for now."

"The Destiny Fruit can help people carry their destiny, and the function of the Destiny Tree is to breed. It breeds the opportunity to carry destiny. The Destiny Fruit is unique, but in your hands, its breeding power can still play a secondary role."

"How to do it and what to use it to foster is up to you."

"Nurture..."

Zhou Qing thought for a moment and asked again: "After using the Destiny Fruit to carry the Destiny, there will be defects. So if I use the Destiny Tree, will there be the same problem?"

Zhou Qing did not want his breakthrough in cultivation to leave any hidden dangers. This was something he found difficult to accept.

"The Destiny Tree is different from the Destiny Fruit. You don't have to worry about that."

The Taijitu deity said: "Things that can help people carry destiny have only appeared once in history. The level of the Destiny Fruit is too high, so it is normal to have defects."

"But you can regard the second-rate fertility power as a kind of nutrient. You need to absorb this nutrient and produce your own fruit. It is still yours. The fertility power is still within destiny and is flawless. I can be sure of this."

Tai Chi Tu was very patient with Zhou Qing and would do his best to answer any of his questions as long as he could.

Waiting for Zhou Qing to appear and helping him is the task given to him by the Supreme Being, and the Tai Chi diagram will definitely not fool around in this regard.
