Chapter 620: Five Eternal Paths
Chapter 620 Five Eternal Paths
"Resurrection? Reversal of time and space?" Li Yuan was secretly surprised.
This was the first time he had heard it.
"You don't seem to know. It seems that your vision is not high enough to know the secret of resurrection." The old man said in a low voice: "Some terrifying beings among the God Emperors are able to reverse time and space and resurrect the dead..."
"Of course, it's extremely difficult to actually do that."
"This goes against the rules of the operation of the River of Time, and will be backlashed by the entire River of Time. Even some weaker God Emperors will not be able to withstand it." Tomb Boss said slowly.
Li Yuan suddenly realized.
It turns out that in this vast universe, there are some God Emperors who can actually resurrect the dead... Such means are simply unbelievable.
You must know that Li Yuan had read the information and books of the Chaos Divine Court in the past. Some super powerful people, if they let their disciples and relatives practice some special secret techniques and combine them with some secret treasures, can be revived after death... But there are prerequisites.
For example, preparations must be made in advance, and there are special requirements for strength level.
If one dies suddenly without any preparation, then even the God Emperor cannot be resurrected.
Death is difficult to reverse.
But from what the tomb elder said, even if one dies completely, there is a possibility of reversing time and space and being resurrected?
Li Yuan was immediately moved.
"From your appearance, you seem to be fearless. Could it be that you have practiced the art of clones?" Tomb Elder said in a low voice, "That's right. After all, I am only left by the Supreme of Beihe. I am not a real life... I cannot distinguish some special methods."
"Whether you have a clone or not, I don't care. Everything should be done according to the rules."
"You have passed the first test. The next test is the second one." said the old man in the tomb.
"The first level?" Li Yuan was stunned.
When did I pass through? I didn't even notice it.
"The four minor tribulations are the first level." Tomb Elder explained, "It is to screen out those who strayed in and those who are not strong enough... Humph, if you can't even pass the first level, you don't even have the qualifications to meet me, even if you are a member of the Honghe Yumeng, you have to die."
Li Yuan suddenly realized.
It turns out that the members of Honghe Yumeng are not absolute amulets. The prerequisite is that they can survive the four disasters.
"Master Mu, what is the second test?" Li Yuan asked proactively.
"You've seen the second level."
"It is the All Saints Stone Wall." The old man said in a low voice: "You should have experienced the magic of this stone wall... This is a rare treasure that the Supreme Beihe obtained from the eternal ruins 'Immortal World'. It should be left by the Eternal Realm."
Li Yuan held his breath.
Eternal ruins, immortal world? Never heard of it!
But it was actually left behind by the Eternal Realm? In an instant, Li Yuan thought of the source seed... It was also obtained by the Life God King from an eternal relic, and it contained extraordinary power.
“This mural on the stone wall.”
"What is depicted should be a scene of an 'eternal' preaching, and many of the listeners are at least at the quasi-saint level... This scene happened countless years ago."
"But this stone wall is eternal. When you see it, you can be in the preaching scene of countless years ago." The old man sighed and said, "And you can truly sense the 'Tao rhyme' of tens of thousands of quasi-saints... It's as if tens of thousands of quasi-saints are interpreting their own great way forever."
These words revealed the origin of the All Saints Stone Wall.
"Therefore!"
"This stone wall was named 'Ten Thousand Saints Stone Wall' by the Supreme of Beihe, and it became a treasure to guide the cultivation of future generations." Tomb Elder said with emotion: "Such a treasure, even the Supreme of Beihe cannot refine it... Eternity is eternity."
“The Supreme… is only the Supreme among the God Emperors after all.”
"One step difference is the difference between heaven and earth."
“If you can’t take that step, compared to ordinary people, you will just be a pile of dry bones in a tomb who have lived a few more years.” There was a hint of sadness and regret in the voice of the tomb elder, as if he had witnessed the ultimate demise of a supreme being who once roamed the universe.
Li Yuan felt even more disappointed after hearing this.
Yes!
Be it a god, a god king, or even a god emperor... once the long river of time collapses, everything will perish and be destroyed, and it will be difficult to leave anything behind.
quite a while.
"I was actually influenced." Li Yuan's mind suddenly became clear, his eyes were like guns, sharp and unshakable: "Eternity? It's too far away for me. How long have I lived? Why should I think about things that are so far away? What I have to do is to become the strongest in each realm step by step, to become a God King or even a God Emperor... Only then will I be qualified to talk about eternity."
"Besides!"
"All signs indicate that since there are eternal relics... it means that someone once testified to eternity."
It is very important that someone has reached that level.
"Haha." The old man's voice suddenly sounded, and he returned to normal: "It's good to be young. Your will is extremely strong. You can easily get rid of the influence of my words."
"Yeah, kid."
"I originally thought that your chance of failure was 100%, but now I have changed my mind. Your chance of failure should be 99%." Tomb Master said.
Li Yuan was speechless.
"Grandmaster." Li Yuan couldn't help but ask, "What is the quasi-saint you just mentioned?"
"Oh!"
"The universe is vast and extremely ancient. The Xinmeng Universe, for example, was only created more than 2 billion years ago." said the old man in the tomb.
Li Yuan nodded.
"The previous era of the Xinmeng Universe was the 'Honghe Universe', which lasted for tens of billions of years. Before the Honghe Universe, there were even earlier universes in this starry sky... Looking at the entire universe, a large number of universes are experiencing birth, reproduction, prosperity, destruction, and rebirth... The long rivers of time are constantly revolving, never stopping." Tomb Old Dao.
"Reincarnation is the eternity of the universe."
"The history of the entire universe is simply incalculable... perhaps it is 10 trillion years, or perhaps 100 trillion years... In short, countless powerful people and countless heroic deeds have been born in the endless years."
"Holy."
"It is one of the respectful names for eternity used by practitioners in this vast universe before the endless ancient times." The old man in the tomb said: "Of course, there are also different respectful names in other times, such as - Immortal!"
"Saint? Immortal?" Li Yuan suddenly remembered.
Senior Brother Dong Mang once said that the path that can be truly eternal is qualified to be called the 'Eternal Immortal Path'.
"The so-called quasi-saint."
“It refers to the God Kings and God Emperors who have opened up their own paths… The difference of one word is an essential difference.” Tomb Elder said: “In fact, even in some areas of the universe today, God Kings and God Emperors are still called Quasi-Saints.”
“In some areas, the God Kings and God Emperors are called Golden Immortals or Daluo Golden Immortals.”
"It's due to the different cultivation systems and also due to historical heritage." said the old man in the tomb.
Li Yuan suddenly realized.
He thought of the "Immortal Court" he had encountered in the Lingmu World, which seemed to be the name of immortals that was still used.
Of course, when one reaches Li Yuan’s level, it is already clear that these are just appearances.
All roads lead to the same destination.
In the end, it’s all about carving out your own path…it doesn’t matter what the title is.
"There are two ways to pass the second level." Tomb Elder continued: "The first is to open up a new path."
"Open a path?" Li Yuan was surprised.
A path opened up in the realm of the gods? I have never heard of it before, and it may have never appeared in the history of the entire Xinmeng Universe.
At least, there is no public information about its existence.
"Correct."
"It is difficult for a god to open up a new path, but that is only for ordinary gods."
"If the Ten Star Veins Celestial God can fully comprehend the three major directions or even the four major directions of the space law, and then use the 'Ten Thousand Saints Stone Wall', there is every hope that he can open up a path in advance." Tomb Elder said as a matter of course: "If you can't even do this, how can you get the recognition of the Northern River Supreme?"
"The Heavenly God Realm opens up a path in advance, which will be of great benefit to your practice after you become a God King. In this way, you will be qualified to enter the third level."
Li Yuan felt helpless.
I have just reached the true divine realm, and have only just comprehended one direction of the laws of space. Even though I have initially stepped into the 'threshold of the Path of Illusionary Mind', and have some understanding of the 'Path of the Heart Realm'...but I am only staying on the edge of the threshold, and am still far from truly opening up the path.
"Master Mu, what is the second method?" Li Yuan asked.
"Survive the samsara calamity." The old man in the tomb said, "If you can survive the samsara calamity, even if your strength is weaker, you can still enter the third level... Living longer is better."
"Reincarnation calamity? What is this?" Li Yuan felt something was wrong.
Just listening to it would be extremely difficult.
"do not know."
"Anyway, judging from the probability of passing through in history, this samsara calamity is more difficult." Tomb Elder said calmly: "You have a hundred years... I can see that you have an amazing talent for enlightenment, and your years of cultivation are even shorter."
"This may be your only chance of survival."
"During these hundred years, you can use the 'All Saints Stone Wall' to comprehend and practice... If you still haven't opened up a path in a hundred years, you must go through the 'Reincarnation Tribulation'." The old man said, "You don't have to worry about your consciousness being assimilated. I will always pay attention to you and remind you."
Li Yuan's eyes lit up.
A hundred years? What he lacked was time.
……
The tomb master's voice disappeared, leaving Li Yuan standing alone in this vast palace, thinking.
"century?"
Li Yuan took a step forward and came to a position very close to the All Saints Stone Wall. He sat cross-legged on a huge jade platform.
As soon as he sat down, Li Yuan felt a sense of emptiness in his heart, and even his thinking speed seemed to have increased a lot. "As expected."
"The All Saints Stone Wall is placed here. This palace is probably where the Northern River Supreme preached in the past." Li Yuan guessed in his heart: "Back then, a large number of powerful people probably gathered here."
"Ignore it for now."
Li Yuan's mind moved, and he began to silently regulate his own state, and began to recover the injuries to his body and mind.
No matter what we face next, maintaining our strength is the most important thing.
"Compared to the outside, or even compared to the surface of Beichen Star, this place is simply paradise." Li Yuan thought to himself, "There is no need to worry about any danger, and the source of energy is also extremely rich... The only thing is that I can only stay here for a hundred years at most."
While regulating your breathing.
Li Yuan's gaze fell on the All Saints Stone Wall again, and quickly, his consciousness sank again.
But this time, with preparation, Li Yuan remained conscious and clear-headed. He had learned his lesson and did not look at the towering and immortal figure in the center of the stone wall first... Instead, he observed the tens of thousands of powerful men from various races surrounding him, all of whom exuded the charm of Taoism.
Li Yuan couldn't tell whether these beings were God Kings or God Emperors... In short, they were all existences that opened up the way.
"According to what the tomb elder said."
"Last time, I resonated with the Tao rhymes of five quasi-saints in total." Li Yuan's thoughts were very clear.
In this regard, he still believed in the judgment of the tomb master.
"If I really want to use the Ten Thousand Saints Stone Wall to open up a path... first, I have to find these five quasi-saints."
Li Yuan immersed his consciousness in the All Saints Stone Wall, sensing silently.
time flies.
Gradually, Li Yuan gradually realized... he found one of the strong men.
This is a powerful man who looks like mist, with a vague aura and his rhyme of Tao is even more strange and unpredictable.
"Is it the way of the soul? The way of the heart mist?" Li Yuan sensed carefully and confirmed the way opened up by the other party.
The heart is like fog, unpredictable.
The divine body is like the heart mist, difficult to harm... The divine body of this powerful man seems to be very special, as if it is a fusion of soul and matter, presented in the form of "mist".
His divine body is the origin of his soul, and the origin of his soul is his divine body... This strange method made Li Yuan amazed.
The Heart Mist Path has similarities with the Heart Realm Path.
The Heart Realm Path is the most profound and complete transformation into the 'heart realm', which can also be called the heart sea, vast and boundless... However, the heart realm is a perfect defense against all attacks from the outside world, while the Heart Mist Path tolerates all attacks and is everywhere.
……
Not long after, Li Yuan sensed the Tao rhyme of another quasi-saint strongman. He was dressed in green and had a vast aura. Just standing there, it seemed as if the endless heaven and earth were covering him.
"The world's way."
"Is it the 'World Dao' mentioned in the Divine Court scriptures?" Li Yuan confirmed.
The three thousand eternal ways is just a general term and an imaginary number.
But over the long years, a large number of powerful God Kings were born in the Chaos Divine Court, and with the countless information collected... there are summaries of the many paths opened up for practitioners.
Many principles are essentially the same, but they differ slightly depending on how people comprehend them.
And things like the 'World Dao' are something that many powerful people have comprehended.
Once this path is opened up, the body is like the world, the mind is like the world... He is best at domain methods, and can easily reach a very high level in formations.
"I have fully understood the 'world of space' and have unique insights into the structure of the divine world... Could this be the reason?" Li Yuan pondered in his heart.
……
Li Yuan sensed the breath of another quasi-saint and resonated with him. He sat cross-legged, chubby, and sitting there gave people an unshakable feeling. His vitality was so vigorous that it was incredible.
"The Way of Life?" Li Yuan confirmed.
The path opened up by this quasi-saint seems to be similar to the 'Path of Life' opened up by the God of Life.
Of course, in the Chaos Divine Court, there are also many God Kings who have opened up the "Blood God Path", "Soul Transformation Path", "Soul Devouring Path", etc., which are similar to the Life Path, but are quite different.
"I have perfect ten star veins, and I have also cultivated the 'Universe Divine Body'. According to the message left by the Life God King, once I enter the Divine King realm in the future, it will be easy for me to open up the 'Life Path'..." Li Yuan thought to himself: "Is this the reason why I have caused resonance?"
Since it has aroused resonance, it shows that there is great potential in this area, and there must be a reason.
……
"This quasi-saint has such a strong killing intent that he looks like a sword that is about to be unsheathed and ready to split the world apart."
"Is it the way of destruction?"
"Or is it the path of killing?" Li Yuan sensed it from afar, his heart trembling with fear.
There is a difference between the Path of Destruction and the Path of Killing... The former focuses more on material attacks. For example, the most powerful God King recognized in the history of the Xinmeng Universe, 'Demon God King', pioneered the Path of Destruction.
As for the Way of Killing? It is weaker in physical attacks, but it also carries a terrible causal attack, which can destroy all traces of causality through distant time and space... The Way of Killing is more targeted at life.
"marksmanship."
"What we seek is to pierce through all illusions, which is in line with the true meaning of destruction and killing." Li Yuan sighed in his heart.
……
Li Yuan easily found the first four quasi-saints who resonated with him.
Only the last one.
Li Yuan sensed it one by one, and it took him several days to finally confirm it.
This is a figure in a green robe.
He stood in the center, with a sword hanging on his waist... but there was no one around him, and the other quasi-saints were all far away from him, as if his status was very special.
"What is this?" Li Yuan didn't realize it when he first sensed it, but after carefully sensing it, he realized the mysterious aura he emitted.
His life breath is extremely strong, just as strong as that of a strong man in the way of life... but it is extremely restrained, and it is impossible to detect it without careful sensing.
He stood there like a sword that had not been unsheathed, but the slightest edge it revealed was enough to make one's heart tremble.
His aura is like a vast universe, unshakable... In short, no matter from which angle Li Yuan observes, he can get a different feeling.
"Thick as the world?"
"The edge is like destruction."
"The vitality is endless... What kind of path has he opened up?" Li Yuan was shocked.
He was absolutely certain that the path opened up by this quasi-saint was probably the most special among all the strong people in the Ten Thousand Saints Stone Wall.
It simply encompasses the essence of all paths, without the slightest flaw... You must know that just like different paths, all have their strengths and weaknesses.
Like the Heart Mist Path, it embraces everything and has strong vitality... Neither material attacks nor soul attacks are strong enough.
Like the Way of Life, the vitality is strong and the attack is relatively weak.
For example, the way of destruction, the attack is unmatched... but as soon as it passes the easy break, the vitality of the divine body becomes much weaker, and it is impossible to cultivate multiple clones.
There is only this strong man in front of him.
It's absolutely perfect, it seems to be extremely strong in every aspect, with no weaknesses to be seen at all.
"Could it be," Li Yuan realized, "that this expert also developed a way to fuse soul and matter?"
Three Thousand Eternal Daos.
Tracing back to the source, they all fall into three major directions: starting from matter, starting from the soul, and the fusion of soul and matter.
Most of the strong ones are trying to merge soul and matter. For example, the Heart Mist Way, the Killing Way... they all belong to the fusion of soul and matter, but the fusion is very superficial.
"The path opened up by the Illusionary Heart Divine King is called the Illusionary Heart Path." Li Yuan silently thought in his heart: "This strong man is probably on a similar path... The vast universe, endless years, there are indeed endless mysteries."
In the Xinmeng Universe, among the tens of thousands of God Kings in history, only God King Huanxin has achieved this.
Therefore, relying on his eight-star vein body, his strength was so powerful that he could rival many ten-star vein God Kings throughout the ages.
But in this All Saints Stone Wall, there was also a strong man who did it.
"This path is also what I pursue." Li Yuan had a hint of desire in his heart.
The more Li Yuan studied and comprehended, the more he could feel the vastness and power of this road.
This is the ultimate truth.
The hardest, yet the most powerful.
……
As time passed, after confirming the five quasi-saints, Li Yuan began to try to learn from them one by one.
past.
Li Yuan has the "Illusionary Heart Divine Canon", can obtain a large number of classics from the Chaos Divine Court, see the statue of the God King, and have the methods left by the God King of Life... but compared to now, the difference is very big.
Just like building a house, in the past, Li Yuan only had a lot of drawings but had never actually done it.
now.
The Tao charm exuded by the five quasi-saints was like five ready-made houses for Li Yuan to observe and learn from for a long time... and then compare them one by one with the blueprints, they were suddenly completely different.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed.
