Chapter 340 Everything (3)
This is completely different from the enlightenment of Master Xingji recorded in the classics read by later formation practitioners.
Luo Xuanyi still remembered that when she read Hao Fei's memory, she read about how Master Xingji suddenly realized the way of formations and opened the realm of refining emptiness for all the Taoists, and finally ascended to heaven on the spot and transformed into the celestial beast Xiyan. She had imagined that the scene must be grand and attract everyone's attention.
But the Master Xingji in front of him fell into the river and almost drowned after attaining enlightenment. He also told two incomprehensible jokes in a row after getting on the boat.
There was no divine light about to fall from the sky, and Master Xingji was just an ordinary human being.
This has also been tampered with.
"Nothing surprising there. Hou Ming is just extra careful even in messy places, leaving no loopholes."
The dragon flicked its tail, and the entire scene flattened, narrowed, and then shrank like a rolled-up scroll. Luo Xuanyi had initially assumed it was manually updating its memories, but she hadn't realized it was retrieving every scene in which Mo Yi had appeared, compiling a scroll of memories.
Luo Xuanyi finally understood why the magic dragon entered her memory and watched together.
While watching Mo Yi's memories from the sidelines didn't risk her consciousness being assimilated, it also didn't allow for a deep understanding of her thoughts. Luo Xuanyi recalled the various scenes just now: "Why does Mo Yi spend so much time watching these mortals?"
Mo Yi, who has become a demigod, only needs to think about crossing the river or the sea, but she chose to sit on a light boat and slowly sway to the end of the river.
"Perhaps he's thinking about how to fight against Shi?" The Demon Dragon could only guess. After all, it was only the power of Mo Yi that had been separated.
"Did Mo Yi and Master Xingji have any contact again afterwards?" Luo Xuanyi asked again.
The dragon thought about it carefully and said, "Except for the final battle, there is no more."
"Master Xingji is a strange individual who prefers to contribute to the human race as a whole rather than entertain himself. He usually travels and teaches others. There are many such eccentrics among the human race, and that sword ancestor is no exception."
Luo Xuanyi realized something.
"A big fight?"
"Yes, the war, the battle for the throne of God that Mo Yi finally provoked."
"This battle involved almost all the divine beasts, divinely favored beings, and cultivated humans in this world, and everyone had different goals."
As the magic dragon finished speaking, the fragments of the inscription in Luo Xuanyi's body began to wail, and a picture of battle gradually replaced the peaceful scene before her eyes.
A bloody wind blew over Luo Xuanyi, and the inscriptions within her body crumbled faster and faster, leaving only the last bit. As that final memory rushed out, Luo Xuanyi knew it was all coming to an end.
The sky was awash in bloody battles, and countless gods and beasts perished. They fought for their respective gods, their scattered golden blood spilling across the mountains, rivers, and seas like a divine blessing, gradually giving rise to bizarre spiritual plants.
Hundreds of humans on the earth held crude magical weapons. At the front, Master Xingji, holding the formation flag, and Master Dao Yu, holding the sword, stood side by side and calmly joined the battle.
The battle of the human race is not to fight for the throne among the gods, but to free the human race from the shackles of being the pets of the gods and become a race worthy of respect.
For this reason, the human race dispersed and joined in battles against Shi's clan.
However, the battle among all living beings was so fierce that the two gods disappeared.
Everything withered, the gates of heaven opened wide, and the people fighting fiercely were shocked, feeling only the Tao wailing. Looking up, they saw a figure falling.
It is the figure of Shi.
After that, a figure slowly fell from the gap in the sky, but her appearance was not as calm as her attitude.
The way of heaven shook, and bursts of starlight burst out from the sky gate, swirling between Shi and Mo Yi, illuminating their miserable figures.
"You've comprehended it." Shi wiped the blood from his mouth, his entire internal organs blooming with divine brilliance, and bits of analysis flowed into the world. "Congratulations."
Half of Mo Yi's body was completely stripped of bones and blood, and the remaining flesh and blood fluttered like falling cherry blossoms in spring, revealing her pure white bones. From her expression, she didn't show the slightest sign of being seriously injured.
Only when she heard Maki's words did she raise her face to reveal a matter-of-fact smile.
"The position of demigod is just the middle step."
Her words were firm, yet they didn't sound harsh, because her frankness and confidence were based on absolute power and ambition, and she had climbed the ladder step by step to where she was today.
Shi suddenly felt happy and couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha!"
The Great Road roared three times, and the sky burst into starlight. Even in broad daylight, the Milky Way was visible. Shi's figure nearly disappeared, but at this moment, his aura made all creatures bow down.
Shi stopped talking, looked directly at Mo Yi, and the galaxy fell into his palm.
"In that case, let's settle the matter, my compatriots."
Mo Yi was facing Shi, and his expression became serious and calm when he heard these words.
The scales on her snake's tail echoed with the sound of the River Styx. That faint and pure voice sang leisurely from the depths of her soul, and new flesh and blood immediately grew on her wounds that were so deep that the bone could be seen.
"I made a vow from the day I was born that one day, I will take over and become the god of this world."
A divine light shone from Mo Yi's eyes, the avenue roared, and the orthodoxy gradually fell upon her.
"At this moment, the oath is fulfilled!"
The Demon Dragon and Luo Xuanyi stood side by side, watching a familiar scene. The sky was torn apart, the stars were falling, and the world was flickering in this battle. Countless gods, divine beasts, and humans died, just swept away by the aftermath.
The battle between the two gods had nearly reduced the world to ruins. The more they fought, the more passionate their blood boiled, like old friends who understood each other's thoughts, or like enemies with a thousand-year blood feud, fighting to the death.
"Who won?"
The dragon replied: "There is no winner."
When half of the Heavenly Gate was destroyed and Mo Yi was about to penetrate the foundation of Shi's divine throne, the Taoist tradition burst out with a roar that resounded throughout the world.
A god has succeeded to the throne.
But Mingming Shi has not abdicated yet, and the demigod Mo Yi is still a demigod.
Everything in this world is old in front of the new God. Mountains and rivers collapse and turn into divine power, time stops flowing, and the colors of life fade away. Everything is waiting for the arrival of a new order.
In the still time, only the time of Shi and Mo Yi is still flowing.
The divine position in Shi's chest quickly dissipated, his own divine power turned into nothing, and his entire body was completely shattered; and the demigod position obtained by Mo Yi also trembled violently, as if trying to escape and follow to the gate in the sky.
Mo Yi clutched the last fragment of Shi tightly. Their disbelieving gazes converged, directed towards the Heavenly Gate.
Behind the half-destroyed door, a familiar yet unfamiliar breath descended.
"Later life...?"
Shi's voice was vague, and his face showed realization, but then regret.
He turned to Mo Yi and wanted to say something to her, but the last bit of his divine power dissipated, and his breath rose and turned into a tiny star, passing through Mo Yi's palm and rising into the Heavenly Gate.
Mo Yi coughed up a mouthful of divine blood, forcibly suppressing the demigod in his body that was ready to stir, and clenched his fists.
"Little man."
Her still cold and contemptuous voice seemed to irritate Hou Ming. The aura in the Heavenly Gate shook violently, but Hou Ming still suppressed it and hid inside the gate.
Hou Ming knew very well how he obtained the position of god.
If it were to confront Shi head-on, it would surely lose. Shi's position as a deity was too secure, and someone must destabilize the order of this world before it could take advantage of the situation.
For hundreds of thousands of years, Hou Ming had been lurking, acting as a humble and obedient mount, secretly encouraging those who were born to rebel. However, none of them had the power to shake Shi's orthodoxy, so it could only endure.
Until Mo Yi appeared.
It raises the banner for Mo Yi, keeps Shi busy with worldbuilding, supports the human race's aspirations, and does everything. These self-proclaimed free and noble races are merely its pawns.
But after Mo Yi forcibly seized the position of demigod with absolute power, Hou Ming began to panic.
If Shi was killed by Mo Yi, there could only be one god in this world, and that was Mo Yi. All his years of hiding and disguise would have been in vain.
He would never let that happen.
Hou Ming finally succeeded, using its forte, conspiracy, to avoid all risks. After entering the Heavenly Gate during a time of world turmoil, it… used sweet words, humility, respect, and flattery… …
The incomprehensible things caused memory loss, so Luo Xuanyi had to give up reading and instead focus on the story.
After this, Hou Ming bypassed Mo Yi, who was supposed to inherit the throne of God, and stole the position of Tian Dao.
It unfolded the star map, hid behind the gate of heaven, and began to depict a new order.
"The sun, moon, and stars were all obscured by a canopy. All the remaining divine beasts and divinely favored beings in this world were bound by the rules, becoming the stars on the canopy, eternally imprisoned."
"The second ancestor of the human race died and disappeared. The celestial beasts named them their divine favored ones. From then on, a new historical ballad was sung across the land."
"The River of Samsara is its tongue, the world beneath the canopy is its belly. Souls reincarnate within its belly, being chewed in its mouth. The residue falls between its teeth, covering the mountains, rivers, and land. Countless deadly resentments gather together, forming new souls that enter the cycle of reincarnation."
"These souls are no longer the independent spirits of the previous world, but food that it can control and can never disobey it. This world has been castrated in this way and become a paradise for the afterlife."
Amidst the chanting of the afterlife, all the inscriptions remaining within Luo Xuanyi's body instantly collapsed. All the memories confined to her soul transformed into a golden tide, crashing down upon the world outside of her body with overwhelming force. In the darkness, Luo Xuanyi seemed to hear something creaking like dislocated gears, a piercing howl like the sound of a collapsing force.
The entire sky crackled with a cacophony of light, completely tearing through the dark clouds and illuminating the gloomy Dragonfall Land. Wherever the light touched, the aura of death, along with the blood, dissipated. The green hearts and white flames on the corpses turned to ash, and the corpses, which had remained vibrant for millennia, rapidly began to decay.
The demon dragon suddenly grabbed Luo Xuanyi and said to her quickly, "Eat me."
"Your soul has been released. Before all cause and effect are completely erased, you must remember. As long as you remember, your future life will always be a false Dao that usurps the Dao position. All memories are contained in my flesh and blood."
The dragon was about to persuade him again, but Luo Xuanyi tore off the mimicry and turned into a ball of black mist, swallowing the entire dragon body.
