Chapter 45: The cycle of cause and effect...
"What are you talking about, becoming an immortal?"
Upon hearing this answer, Yinglong, who had been lowering his head and carefully carving complex patterns with his sharp claws, suddenly stood up and rushed to the front of the phantom that Chongming had dropped from a high platform tens of thousands of miles away to Kunlun Ruins.
"What is immortality? Can I save her?! What should I do?"
"If this succeeds...she can do whatever she wants."
The young man who cast a shadow of spiritual consciousness from the high platform said in a calm voice.
"I'll find a way, Lord God, but you must help me keep it a secret from her."
"I would do the same thing even if you didn't tell me, but..."
The God Lord looked at him deeply, stretched out his hand and waved away the increasingly faint shadow of his spiritual consciousness.
"Regarding this matter, your method had better be useful, otherwise I don't mind using my own method to save her."
"It's a deal."
Chongming looked down at the mysterious fragment in his hand, which had a mysterious and ethereal aura, and inserted it into his body with an expressionless face.
A dazzling halo that cannot be described in words suddenly enveloped Yinglong's territory located at the junction of sea and land, as if by miracle.
Countless huge and violent information flowed through those emotionless golden eyes in an instant, and after a few breaths, everything returned to calm as if nothing had happened.
"Is this the truth she's always wanted me to understand...?"
He murmured softly, and the subtle doubt in his tone gradually dissipated into the world. Chongming's gaze subconsciously turned to the exceptionally silent young man beside him.
Feeling that she was being watched by Chongming, Guixuan briefly put aside her worries about Chu Sheng's current situation, raised her eyes and spoke calmly to Chongming.
"Even after accepting and understanding the Dao, it's still far from enough. If you want to achieve the state you described, you must then make it 'alive'."
Gui Xuan, who had just woken up from the illusion, was extremely unlucky.
Before the young master of Liangyi Valley had the chance to lie low and take time to sort out the new things in his mind, he was immediately drafted into the army by Chongming Immortal Venerable because of the extremely strong vitality aura on his body.
"Are you the seed of heaven that has not yet awakened?" Chongming stared at him with his golden eyes.
After this sentence was spoken without any intelligible meaning, before Gui Xuan had time to think about the meaning of this sentence, this immortal who only existed in legends opened his mouth and made a request without any preparation.
"I need you, come and help me."
Gui Xuan wanted to reject it directly with a sharp tongue, but an irresistible invisible force seemed to press on his vital point as if it had foreseen it.
If he refused, he might die on the spot... The caution of a newcomer who was unsure of the situation and the fact that he had to obey the situation forced him to nod reluctantly.
"...What do you want me to do for you?"
Chongming asked Guixuan, the "Seed of Heavenly Dao", to help him quickly understand the essence of "Dao".
Gui Xuan, who had no idea what the Heavenly Dao Seed was, almost scratched her head when faced with the extremely unreasonable Party A.
He probably understood that Chongming could see the origin of the Great Dao of Vitality that he was majoring in, but the Great Dao was very simple and there were very few people who could interpret it, let alone Gui Xuan who was only in the Golden Core Stage?
The Immortal Venerable said nothing, but simply extended his hand to Guixuan. Guixuan carefully placed her fingertips on Chongming's palm.
But it happened in just a moment...
In just a moment, seeing Chongming's aura pausing for a moment and then becoming stronger like a burning flame, Gui Xuan realized that Chongming had understood the vitality in him!
Through Guixuan, Chongming discovered that "Tao" can actually exist in the human soul in a special way.
So he stretched out his hand, and directly cut off a piece of vitality from the constantly rotating obscure sea of stars and from the way of heaven, and merged it into himself in front of Gui Xuan.
This scene, which ordinary people could never imagine no matter how hard they tried, happened right in front of him unexpectedly.
Gui Xuan, who prided herself on having seen a lot of ups and downs, now looked like she was about to break apart.
“——What on earth are you doing!!!”
"I'm studying." Chongming didn't care about Guixuan's somewhat disrespectful and offensive tone, and answered calmly.
"The karma owed for damaging my spiritual veins must be repaid many times over by regenerating my vitality... I see. This, too, is a form of exchange."
Chongming, who had integrated a part of the "Tao", seemed to have no major changes except that his face became a little pale. He carefully felt the Tao rhythm in his body and said thoughtfully.
"There are three thousand Daos, and the Dao of Life is but one of them. If you wish to fully comprehend all Daos, I'm afraid your current level is far from sufficient...
But there are some things that we shouldn't get too deeply involved in right now. If we insist on doing so, things might get out of control."
Gui Xuan reminded him with her almost non-existent kindness. "What do you want to do?"
Chongming's expression was full of inhuman and indifferent coldness when he was lost in thought. Even the young master of Liangyi Valley felt puzzled when he saw him like this.
Facing such an extreme situation right from the start, Guixuan felt irritated and speechless.
Why would I have to deal with something like the ancestors of Mo Nanzhou? Shouldn't Ye Ziqing or Chu Sheng handle the fate and inheritance?
What does your love, hatred, and vengeance have to do with me, an innocent medical practitioner from Futuzhou?
etc.
The young master of Liangyi Valley pressed his forehead and suddenly fell into deep thought.
He later realized that the reason why he was able to comprehend the great way of vitality so smoothly in the beginning was actually due to the mysterious opportunity that Yun Mengzi had given to Guizhi Fuling.
...So, the understanding of the Great Dao of Vitality was originally something that the Hehuan Sect, or the southern and northern regions of the desert, should have possessed?!
Guixuan felt suffocated when she realized something.
Perhaps it was because he was more vigilant and observant of the Dao than Chu Sheng.
In this situation, Gui Xuan was the only one who first realized the most crucial thing that no one had thought of so far:
Therefore, the Tianjiao List is not a spatial magic weapon in essence, but a special anchor point for time and space transmission.
The Tianjiao Ranking is opened once every few hundred years, with the purpose of completing every cycle of cause and effect...!
Chu Sheng is a ruthless cultivator who has never successfully achieved enlightenment. What kind of karma did she have that required her to go to such great lengths to pay for it?
Guixuan felt her brain working like crazy as never before, and at this moment, Chongming spoke again:
"I want to save my senior sister."
This young man who seemed to have no emotions, showed a somewhat human expression for the first time in a long time when he mentioned "Senior Sister".
"Based on the current situation, if the Dao cannot be completed in time, Senior Sister will most likely die.
Senior Sister is the most important. I will never allow this to happen. If there are other things that prevent me from doing this... then I will eliminate them all."
Chongming looked at Guixuan, whose expression changed in an instant, and spoke in a calm tone.
"Heavenly Path Seed, I knew it the moment I saw you. Although we are not familiar with each other, if it were you, you would definitely think the same, right?"
"If you ask me that—yes, even if it does, it will cost the world more."
After answering Yuan Qi's question, the God Lord transformed a sharp dragon claw with his fingertips, and easily cut very smooth lines out of the abyssal black iron that ordinary people could not do anything about.
"What are stability, balance, and cause and effect? What does it have to do with me what the world will become?
My wish is simple, as long as she can live happily, even if it's with that annoying Chongming."
Yinglong raised her eyes and waved naturally at the sky steps whose top she could not see, as if she saw the goddess looking at her.
As for why she did this, Qi An and Yuan Qi, who had been forced to get acquainted with the Lord God for a while, knew without asking. Ying Long would definitely say:
Even just once, what if she happens to see it? It's too lonely to be alone in Tianchi. I want her to know that no matter what, I am here with her.
So, in your eyes, we are not considered human beings? Qi An felt a pang of disgust.
In principle, the Lord God was not willing to communicate with others, but as a principled goddess, she rarely spoke specifically.
The goddess said that she was not feeling well and was unable to help, so she asked her to help entertain these distinguished guests who had come from afar.
The God Lord, who was dizzy from being called "Xiaolong" left and right, could only reluctantly curl up at the foot of the mountain and communicate with Qi An and others in a disjointed manner.
Yinglong's personality can be said to be close to that of a child to some extent. Her emotions change as quickly as a storm, making it impossible for people to react to what she is thinking.
Qi An and Yuan Qi actually didn't want to chat with her.
Chu Sheng was taken by Ye Ziqing to see the goddess. They wanted to go with them, but the willful God Lord used his tail to circle the two of them, saying that he had something to ask for and would not let them leave.
Those little bastards in the East China Sea have been making some unusual moves recently, and Yinglong is a little concerned.
The Goddess separated her own blood and created a new race that could practice cultivation like humans. She named them demons, hoping that the birth, aging, sickness and death of the new race could fulfill the goddess's wish and fill the deficiencies of cause and effect and reincarnation in the world.
But the East China Sea is too close to the Abyss, and the monsters born there seem to have undergone some unpleasant changes.
The Lord God instinctively felt that he needed to go over and take a look as soon as possible, but before leaving here...
"I will use the sunken jade condensed from the Emperor's Flowing Blood to carve her an umbrella that is ten thousand times more beautiful than the one in your hand.
Why did I suddenly want to do this? Of course, because she likes it, and she looks really good with an umbrella. "
Yinglong swung its tail, and its huge dragon eyes stared at the umbrella in its hand, which had just taken shape. Then it turned to look at Qi An and Yuan Qi who were standing there, not daring to move.
"Help me see if there's anything else I can modify. It has to look better than the one you have!"
