Do not die
Chapter 447: The Struggle for the Way (Part 2) (Complete Book)
Meng Zhou coughed lightly and quickly calmed down his somewhat overly divergent mind.
At this moment, the two of them are in a very special state.
If he wants to enter here, he must rely on Bai Zhi's will.
And relying on Bai Zhi's mental guidance, the two people actually achieved a kind of connected mind.
The most active thoughts in your heart will be naturally transmitted to the heart of another person.
After realizing this, Meng Zhou still dared to think wildly.
Meng Zhou caught his mind and stared at Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi stared back and said, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Between the words, there was a hint of wildness and savagery inadvertently.
Meng Zhou's expression became even weirder.
"Hey!" This time, Bai Zhi's voice pierced directly into the depths of Meng Zhou's mind.
After Meng Zhou came to his senses, what he saw was Bai Zhi's rather unhappy face.
Meng Zhou coughed again and explained: "You are very different from what I imagined."
Bai Zhi said: "What's so strange about this? You've never seen me before."
Meng Zhou shook his head, held his right hand with Bai Zhi's left hand, then waved his left hand gently in front of him, and a picture scroll unfolded in front of the two of them.
In the painting, a woman looks like she is dining in the wind and drinking dew, standing on a mountain peak, with no face visible, only a back view, as if she is overlooking the mountains and sea of clouds.
The strong wind blew her skirts up and down, vaguely outlining the outline of her graceful figure. It also showed her lightness, as if she would be blown away by the wind at any time.
"Are you the person in this painting?" Meng Zhou asked.
Although there is only one back figure of the person in the painting, Meng Zhou can basically conclude from the temperament and charm revealed in it that this is completely different from the Bai Zhi in front of him.
The Angelica dahurica in front of him gave Meng Zhou a feeling of unadorned natural wildness, as well as a vitality unique to a girl.
Bai Zhi's answer shocked Meng Zhou.
When she saw this painting, Bai Zhi was obviously startled for a moment, and then her eyes stayed for a moment on the figure in the painting with only the back, and shook her head and said, "This is not me."
Meng Zhou was surprised, "Not you? Then who is she?"
"Xingying." Bai Zhi said.
With a completely unfamiliar name, the doubts in Meng Zhou's heart were not only not solved, but instead became more intense.
"Who is Xingying?" Meng Zhou asked.
Bai Zhi seemed to read something from his doubts, and suddenly said: "You may have heard this name for the first time, but you must be familiar with this person."
"Who?" Meng Zhou asked hurriedly, his heart full of curiosity. Before waiting for Bai Zhi's answer, his mind had turned over countless times.
But I have never been able to match the person in the painting with a certain person in my memory.
"Xingxiu Palace was founded by Xingying." Bai Zhi said.
Bai Zhi's answer shocked Meng Zhou, "This... the person in this painting is actually the first ancestor of Xingxiu Palace?"
"Um."
"The first ancestor of Xingxiu Palace was actually a woman?" Meng Zhou stared at the painting in front of him that he had restored with his thoughts. He still felt extremely incredible when looking at the figure in it whose back alone gave people endless reverie.
"Isn't this obvious?" Bai Zhi said lightly.
"..." Meng Zhou glanced at the back of the painting again and thought, it is indeed obvious, but I am still shocked.
After calming down and allowing himself to accept this fact, new doubts came to Meng Zhou's mind.
"Why does this have anything to do with her?"
Bai Zhi blinked and said, "This matter has always been related to her."
Speaking of this, Bai Zhi looked at Meng Zhou and said:
"Even you and her have a very close relationship now."
Meng Zhou was surprised and said: "What relationship do I have with her? Since she is the first ancestor of Xingxiu Palace, wouldn't her bones have been turned into slag long ago?"
"You might as well take a guess." There was an inexplicable meaning in Bai Zhi's eyes.
Meng Zhou shook his head, not guessing at all, and said directly: "If you can't guess, you'd better tell me directly."
"Yaya." Bai Zhi said with a faint smile.
"Yaya? Why are you and Yaya again..."
Meng Zhou suddenly fell silent.
All kinds of thoughts surged back and forth in my mind.
After a long time, he looked at Bai Zhi again and said, "What is going on?"
This time, Bai Zhi did not continue to show off, and clearly laid out the cause and effect in front of Meng Zhou.
All kinds of information, including what had been mastered before and what was learned from Bai Zhi this time, were finally connected together into a relatively complete picture.
To put it simply, Xingying, the first ancestor of the Xingxiu Palace, was still a newbie in Qi training. She was just a rogue cultivator with no roots and no support. She got a huge "adventure" by an "accident".
The pattern of this "adventure" is similar to the process of Lian Ziling and Yan Zhuang's "adventure".
There are two biggest differences. First, Bai Zhi at that time could still communicate with Xingying on a conscious level.
Therefore, when Xingying was growing up, she played the role of a "portable grandpa". No, she should be called a "portable grandma".
The reason why Xingying, a small and helpless cultivator, was able to fly high and become the True Monarch of Nascent Soul, Bai Zhi, the "traveling grandmother" should be the first contributor.
Perhaps it was because of Bai Zhi's careful guidance that Xing Ying had the confidence to cultivate into a Nascent Soul on her own. Perhaps Xing Ying herself was kind-hearted. From the beginning to the end, she did not think of how to maximize the use of this adventure like "Zheng Bo", Lian Ziling, and Yan Zhuang.
She was determined to truly revive Bai Zhi.
This was also the real reason why she entered the Demon Sealing Land and was willing to be a "jailer".
As for the result, of course it was a failure.
If it had succeeded, there would have been no more things to come.
And that failure had two effects on "Bai Zhi".
One good and one bad.
The good thing was that the power that was going to completely wipe out her "spirit" was weakened to a certain extent, which allowed her to continue to persevere and wait for the next "adventure".
The bad thing was that her "spirit" fell into a deeper level of silence, and the weaker "spirit" could no longer appear as a "portable grandmother".
Her failure also caused Xingying, who had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, to suffer and die.
In the usual sense, Xingying had completely fallen.
However, before Baizhi completely died, she saved Xingying's "spirit" that was about to dissipate, and sealed it up with a "self-portrait" drawn by Xingying with her painting skills.
At that time, a pearl in Baizhi's place of residence had turned into powder, so she took the opportunity to squeeze into a "room" with Xingying's "spirit".
It was not until many years later that the ancient painting fell into the hands of "Zheng Bo" that the stories that Meng Zhou knew came about.
The ancient painting first went through several twists and turns, from the hands of "Zheng Bo", to the hands of Lian Ziling, and then to the hands of Yan Zhuang, and finally to the Cuiyu Lake in the "Juye Wilderness". Under the "Blood Heir Spirit Washing Secret Method", it circulated and washed in the blood of generations of the Yan family.
——There are two points worth mentioning. Before the formal operation began, Xingying had already made sufficient preparations for failure.
She had also arranged all the "clues" left for later discovery, including the "Secret Method of Substitute Infant" and the soul armor made by Xingying with the magical power of painting.
Moreover, although Xingying was the first ancestor of Xingxiu Palace, she did not enter the Demon Sealing Land with her true face, but used the magical power of painting to seamlessly transform into another person and replace the other person to enter the Demon Sealing Land.
Not only were all the forces responsible for guarding the Demon Sealing Land deceived by her, but the Xingxiu Palace she founded was also kept in the dark by her, and no one knew her true identity from beginning to end.
It was for this reason that Xingying's "self-portrait" with only a back view did not arouse any suspicion.
Painting Yuanying, with a variety of magical powers, this is her ability.
Another thing is that although Xingying had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul when she fell, she was still not able to survive independently as a "spirit". At that time, she had already been destroyed, and it was only with Bai Zhi's help that she barely saved her "spirit".
It was also for this reason that Yaya's "spirit" only recovered after breaking through from the third level to the fourth level, and she was not able to fully awaken.
This is also the reason why Bai Zhi understood all the causes after the breakthrough, but Yaya was still ignorant of everything in the past.
Bai Zhi's narration solved the doubts that had troubled Meng Zhou for a long time.
Some of them were consistent with his original guesses, and there were also many places that were completely inconsistent with his original guesses.
Listening to Bai Zhi's story, Meng Zhou sighed from time to time: "So that's how it is."
Finally, Bai Zhi asked: "Is there anything else you don't understand?"
Meng Zhou smiled and said: "There is one, but I feel that I have found the answer, but I don't know if it is right."
Bai Zhi also smiled and said: "I guess it should be 'Bai Po Po'?"
Meng Zhou nodded: "Yes, I guess, she should be the unlucky person before Xing Ying, right?"
Bai Zhi nodded, but said angrily: "What unlucky person, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't even have the chance to cultivate into a Yuanying."
Speaking of this, Bai Zhi suddenly sighed with regret.
Because of the rapport, Meng Zhou understood Bai Zhi's thoughts, but didn't say anything.
Perhaps she remembered the glorious years with "Bai Po Po"?
However, Meng Zhou would not have such emotions. He was not familiar with Bai Po Po, and he would not feel anything because of her complete annihilation.
Meng Zhou's thoughts did not stay on "Bai Po Po", but spread from her and thought of more.
Bai Zhi, who was feeling nostalgic, suddenly changed her expression and turned to look at Meng Zhou, "What are you thinking about?"
Meng Zhou also turned to look at Bai Zhi, without any evasive look in his eyes, and said bluntly:
"I suddenly realized that your calculations are far deeper than what you said - you are quite treacherous!"
It was also when thinking of "Bai Po Po" that Meng Zhou suddenly thought of a question. There was "Bai Po Po" before, Xing Ying after, and Bai Zhi after, so -
Is "Bai Po Po" really the first "adventure" winner?
After this question came up, Meng Zhou already had the answer in his mind.
It is highly likely not.
Then, the question came again.
Since it was not, where did those "adventure" winners before her go?
The answer is also very simple. You will know it by referring to the experience of "Bai Po Po".
Those "adventure" winners were naturally completely annihilated as early as the Xing Ying period, even the "Bai Po Po" period, or even earlier periods, just like "Bai Po Po".
Inexplicably, Meng Zhou thought of the "Blood Heir Soul Cleansing Secret Method" and the "Pearl Embryo Soul Cleansing Secret Method" he created with reference to this secret method.
Suddenly, Meng Zhou's mind was filled with happiness. In a trance, he felt that he had a wonderful illusion.
A long river of time that flowed downstream from the very distant past and extended to the present appeared in his mind.
At the source, this long river of time was dark, chaotic and deep, but as it flowed downstream and extended to the present, one illusory figure after another appeared at different time points.
When this long river of time was still dark, chaotic and deep at the beginning, after passing through one illusory figure after another, it became clear and bright little by little.
Meng Zhou looked at "Bai Zhi" - because of this realization, Bai Zhi once again became a little vague and strange in his heart.
"Bai Zhi" was also looking at him.
The two people who were in tune with each other naturally understood the changes in Meng Zhou's emotions at the moment.
She couldn't help but hold Meng Zhou's hand with some strength, and there was a more familiar and friendly charm between her eyebrows.
"What are you worried about?" "Bai Zhi" asked.
"I wonder if Yaya and Bai Zhi would disappear like 'Grandma Bai' if I wasn't there.
And you will continue to go downstream of time." Meng Zhou said.
"Bai Zhi" stared at Meng Zhou without any avoidance.
"But there are no ifs.
I am like a drowning ghost, helpless, and I don't even know if there will be a day when I can really get ashore and be saved... You know, every time I go ashore for a short time, I will become weaker and more powerless.
If it weren't for you, what awaits me is more likely to be quietly melted in the long river of time, leaving no trace.
You saved me!
Because of the wonderful fate that was concluded, I was really pulled ashore.
Why do you doubt me?"
"You should also be able to see that after I went ashore, I have been forcibly twisted into the shape of Bai Zhi!
Now, Bai Zhi is me, and I am Bai Zhi.
These years..."
Listening to Bai Zhi's confession, Meng Zhou was not happy, but his heart tightened. What's going on?
It's like listening to his wife complaining about her grievances. Next, will he feel "disheartened"?
Meng Zhou quickly spoke up, forcibly interrupting the increasingly frightening emotions, "Stop, stop, I was wrong!"
As he said, before Bai Zhi could react, Meng Zhou looked at her sincerely and said, "Let's change the topic, change the topic and talk about baby!"
Bai Zhi blinked, as if her emotions had not yet completely changed, and asked in a daze: "What do you want to talk about?"
At this moment, Meng Zhou's thinking was extremely flexible.
There is actually a clear watershed from Xingying to Bai Zhi.
Until Xingying, "Bai Zhi" existed in the form of a "portable plug-in", and the connection between her and the "adventure" winner was closer.
And starting from Bai Zhi, "Bai Zhi" and the "adventure winner" were separated.
Although I was a little curious about the specific process of this change, it was obviously not a good time to continue this topic.
So, Meng Zhou looked at Bai Zhi and asked another guess in his mind.
"There should be more than one Demon Sealing Land where we are now, right?
Also, although the time span may be very long, the birth of new Demon Sealing Lands has never stopped!"
Bai Zhi nodded and said in surprise: "I haven't told you this yet, how did you find out?"
Meng Zhou said:
"Didn't you say that your short awakening can only be completed in the Demon Sealing Land?"
Bai Zhi nodded.
"Well, if it is outside the Demon Sealing Land, when I just start to overcome the tribulation, I will suffer a devastating blow!
And I can only use each Demon Sealing Land once."
As she said this, Bai Zhi's face showed a look of sudden realization. She already understood the process of Meng Zhou's reasoning.
As long as she understood her situation, it was actually not complicated.
And Meng Zhou was already immersed in the outer continent world that was further "expanded".
After a while, Meng Zhou looked at Bai Zhi again and asked in a deep voice:
"What is the Demon Sealing Land sealing?"
Bai Zhi asked: "Seal me."
Although he had prepared himself mentally, Bai Zhi's answer still made Meng Zhou dumbfounded.
"Seal you? You are the 'demon'?"
Thinking of the imagination of the long river of time, Meng Zhou suddenly felt that this did not seem too far-fetched.
Bai Zhi laughed and said, "Those who are not tolerated by the righteous path are demons, aren't they?"
When she said the word "righteous path", her tone was deliberately emphasized.
Bai Zhi paused and continued, "Of course, I am just one of them, including my teacher and all the existences like me and my teacher."
Speaking of this, Bai Zhi looked at Meng Zhou with admiration in her eyes and said, "Of course, it includes you now!"
Meng Zhou was not surprised that he became a "demon". In fact, when he understood the confrontation between the camps of the laws of heaven and earth, he had already had a similar realization.
Now, it was just a real confirmation from Bai Zhi.
"Seal the demon? What exactly is a demon?" Meng Zhou said softly.
"It's a bit complicated. Let me show you what happened to me."
As Bai Zhi said, she stretched out her finger and gently touched Meng Zhou's forehead with her index finger.
Instantly, under the guidance of this finger, it was as if time was flowing backwards, and it was as if entering the depths of Bai Zhi's soul. An ancient picture scroll that existed in the past, very long ago, slowly unfolded in front of Meng Zhou's eyes.
…
In the center of a huge tribe with a long heritage and a large population in the wild land, there stood a huge tetrahedron altar.
At this moment, in front of the altar, there was a dense crowd of people, and it seemed that a grand ceremony was being held.
In front of the altar, on a high platform surrounded by a large number of people.
A girl was kneeling facing the altar, and in front of the girl, a skinny old man was taking a crown with gorgeous feather wings from his head and putting it on the girl's head little by little.
After doing all this, the skinny old man put a wooden mask with extremely exaggerated facial features on his face under the tearful gaze of the girl.
Under the fanatical and pious eyes of the dense crowd of spectators, they danced the dance that the tribesmen often danced during daily celebrations.
At first, the old man's every move was very casual and ordinary, even a little awkward and childish.
But gradually, the old man's movements began to deform and twist, as if he was fighting, as if he was sneaking in the dark night.
Day, night, night, day...
Day and night cycle.
The old man's figure gradually faded, leaving only a line that seemed real and imaginary winding in the void on the high platform.
And these lines winding in the void gradually condensed into a seemingly ordinary picture, like a child's graffiti.
In the graffiti-like painting, it seems to reproduce the process of the tribesmen hunting ferocious monsters.
However, under this painting, the ferocious monsters are not ferocious at all, but a little stupid and cute.
From dance to rope, from rope to painting.
Before the morning sun of the ninth day rose, in the darkest time before dawn, the last trace of the old man and the "hunting picture" dissipated into the void like morning dew.
It seems that there is no trace of him in the world.
During these nine days, the tetrahedron altar in front of the platform was also unusually active.
From the three huge sculptures on the triangular base of the altar, a faint but continuous smoke rose up, eventually blending into the altar, and then upstream, blending into the tranquil and detached stone statue at the top of the altar.
The head of the stone statue seemed to be lit up, especially at night. After the fifth day, it was even brighter than the naked eye, as if there was a small sun hanging on the top of the altar.
When the old man dissipated like morning dew in the darkest time before dawn on the ninth day, the brightness of the stone statue reached its limit.
Just when the dawn was about to come but not yet, and the darkness was about to dissipate but not yet dissipated.
Above the head of the stone statue, three shadows appeared at the same time.
One shadow was like a dancing figure, one shadow was like a winding rope, and one shadow was a painting with ever-changing patterns.
When they appeared, the "hunting picture" transformed by the old man dissipated like morning dew.
And these three phantoms seemed to have been nourished by something, becoming more solid.
The crowd of spectators who had not dispersed for nine days shouted loudly, and the atmosphere reached its peak at this moment.
The girl who witnessed all this had a faint smile on her lips, but tears in her eyes could not stop flowing down like a floodgate.
…
Meng Zhou, who witnessed all this from a bystander's perspective, exclaimed in his heart.
"Transformation!"
Of course, in the hearts of the girl, her teacher, and the large number of spectators, there is another title, "self-sacrifice".
Once, Meng Zhou had realized this state, which was also the state that he and all normal practitioners avoided.
But here, whether it was the girl or the old man, or all the spectators, in the minds of all the participants, they did not think this was a bad act.
Instead, they thought it was the greatest honor for the old man.
The old man, who had reached the end of his life, proved himself in this way and engraved his mark firmly into the world.
As long as the world does not perish, he can live forever in another form.
"The laws of heaven and earth."
Meng Zhou, who witnessed all this, was shocked.
He had imagined that the three laws that appeared in the old man's "self-sacrifice" were "watered" by the old man and many other beings like him.
The laws of heaven and earth can actually be "raised" in this way.
Such laws of heaven and earth, in Meng Zhou's heart, seemed to have turned into tombstones.
...
The picture did not stop.
The girl had a talent that surpassed her teacher, at least in terms of power.
One day, she left the tribe and walked in the vast world.
Sometimes she visited other tribes and exchanged ideas with other tribal elders;
Sometimes she lingered in the bustling city with dense population and had fun in the market;
More often, she walked in the deep mountains and swamps, and the secret places of the Jedi;
Through the girl's walking, Meng Zhou seemed to see a vast world in person.
The end of the girl's journey this time came from the pursuit of two strong men.
They met in an unknown deep mountain without any communication. The moment the two men saw her, they immediately attacked without mercy.
One of them could turn into thunder and the other could turn into flames, chasing her to the point where she had no way to go up to the sky or into the earth.
Just when the girl was about to fall into despair, a sharp long cry suddenly sounded from the flames that surrounded her from all directions and were about to completely refine her, and a divine bird formed by flames rushed out.
The flame divine bird wrapped the girl in it, and then the flame wings shook lightly and disappeared.
The next moment, the flames that surrounded the girl from all directions turned into a human figure again, looking at the empty void with a face full of exasperation.
…
Seeing the flame divine bird that rescued the girl from the desperate situation, Meng Zhou was also stunned.
He could almost confirm that the flame divine bird that suddenly appeared and left suddenly had a deep connection with the law of heaven and earth in the form of a fire bird that rescued him.
It seemed to know what he was thinking, and then the corresponding information poured into Meng Zhou's mind, solving his doubts.
From then on, Meng Zhou understood that there were generally three ways to form the laws of heaven and earth.
Among them, the most mainstream one is what Meng Zhou himself has realized long ago, that is, in the vast world and endless time, from those "flashes of life", they are extracted, summarized, and sublimated, and gradually formed into various laws of heaven and earth.
The formation of this kind of law of heaven and earth is passive, slow, but also extremely vast.
The process of the formation of various laws of heaven and earth is like the chaotic universe, first slowly forming nebulae, and then forming stars. Different galaxies formed by stars formed by different nebulae are like different laws of heaven and earth.
As long as the world does not perish and life continues to pursue the path of sublimation and progress, the growth of these "galaxies" will continue and never stop.
In other words, the laws of heaven and earth formed in this way will become stronger and stronger even without any human intervention.
And this means that if the path followed by the practitioner happens to be these laws of heaven and earth, then the upper limit of his achievement will naturally rise.
This kind of law of heaven and earth is also the mainstream of the righteous way.
The laws of heaven and earth, such as the Way of Fire, the Way of Thunder, the Way of Water, the Way of Wind, the Way of Wood, the Way of Metal, the Way of Earth, the Way of Ice, etc., are all within this category.
Any of these ways is like a vast galaxy, with infinite potential to be tapped.
The second kind is what Meng Zhou had witnessed before, either active "self-sacrifice" or passive, unconscious "transformation", and finally, "watering" various laws of heaven and earth.
The characteristics and strength of these laws of heaven and earth depend on the number of these "sacrificers" and "transformers" and their respective understandings.
The Way of Sacrificial Dance, the Way of Knotting, and the Way of Painters are all imprinted between heaven and earth for this reason.
Whether the strength of these laws of heaven and earth can continue to grow, it is impossible to expect their natural "growth" like the first type of laws of heaven and earth.
If there are no successors, it will be like water without a source;
If there are successors, the torch will be passed on from generation to generation, and it will continue to grow and continuously increase its upper limit.
It is worth mentioning that the laws of heaven and earth "watered" by this "self-sacrifice" and unconscious "transformation" method are not completely unrelated to the first category, but there are many overlaps.
For example, someone observes thunder to understand the Tao, and finally transforms the Tao. His contribution naturally belongs to the "law of thunder", providing it with new "living water".
The third type is even rarer.
That is, a certain individual life, with its own strength, opens a single path and creates a law of heaven and earth.
This example is too rare.
It is not enough to be the best in the world in terms of understanding and talent, but there must be enough "power".
Facts have proved that there may be many human cultivators who can reach this level in terms of understanding and talent, but they are all lacking in "power". This is a field that only the innate true spirits who are most favored by heaven and earth and have a strong foundation from birth can get involved in.
The flame bird belongs to this category.
...
When Meng Zhou woke up, he found that Bai Zhi had moved her index finger away from his forehead.
The scene from who knows how many years ago, like the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror, quietly disappeared as her fingers moved away.
Meng Zhou looked at Bai Zhi in front of him, and then thought of the girl he had just seen from a bystander's perspective, and finally understood what she meant by "being forcibly twisted into the shape of Bai Zhi".
Some apologetic emotions arose in his heart.
According to his understanding, this was a reversal of a person's self-cognition and self-positioning from the level of nature.
Bai Zhi didn't care about it, because she had accepted the setting that "everything in the past was my previous life" from the bottom of her heart.
Asked: "What have you gained?"
"A lot."
After understanding the three ways of forming the laws of heaven and earth, the mystery that had troubled Meng Zhou for a long time automatically dissipated.
"Tell me about it." Bai Zhi.
"Compared to the formation of the second and third types of laws of heaven and earth, the first type has an obvious advantage."
"And there is a fundamental contradiction between the second and the first.
The number and quality of practitioners and the laws of heaven and earth of the way they practice are mutually influential, mutually promoting, and mutually complementary.
The more practitioners there are in a certain way, the higher the quality, and the upper limit of the corresponding laws of heaven and earth will be higher and higher;
On the contrary, the corresponding laws of heaven and earth will be like a pool of stagnant water that has stopped flowing, and there is no possibility of progress.
And in such a world trend, if you don't move forward, you will regress."
"Compared with the second and third types, the first type of laws of heaven and earth has an absolute advantage, and it is naturally the mainstream of the righteous way.
But no one would think that the way they are doing is too strong. The stronger, the better, and the higher the upper limit, the better.
This is the reason why the laws of heaven and earth are organized into camps, and there are ‘good’ and ‘demonic’. "
Listening to Meng Zhou share his feelings, Bai Zhi nodded lightly at first, and then shook her head slightly.
"What's wrong with what I said?" Meng Zhou asked.
Bai Zhi said:
“I can’t say it’s wrong, it’s just too one-sided.
Although the laws of heaven and earth can be roughly divided into three categories based on how they are formed, they are not so distinct. The formation of law camps is not due to the different ways in which the laws of heaven and earth are formed. "
…
After Bai Zhi's narration, Meng Zhou realized that there was a deeper truth beneath the surface he saw.
The real contradiction is not the difference in the way the laws of heaven and earth are formed.
In fact, in the "right way", all three ways of forming the laws of heaven and earth are included.
The "Magic Way" also includes the formation methods of the three laws of heaven and earth.
Therefore, from the way the laws of heaven and earth are formed, it is impossible to distinguish between "good" and "evil".
The real contradiction lies in concepts.
As for the two concepts, Meng Zhou himself had already been involved in them, and he chose the "magic way" without hesitation.
The so-called "righteous way" can be called "Tiandao Sect" from a conceptual perspective.
The core of its concept is that there is an established and stable "way of heaven", that is, the existence of "Tao".
Different aspects of "Tao" show different laws of heaven and earth. Different laws of heaven and earth give rise to colorful and endless phenomena of heaven and earth.
The so-called "magic way" is what Meng Zhou has always insisted on. There is no so-called "way" in the world, and all phenomena in the world are the source and foundation.
"Tao" changes due to changes in all phenomena in the world. It is uncertain and dynamic. It is changing all the time, and it is also elusive.
Don't the "Tian Dao Sect" know that the concept of "Demon Dao" is more consistent with reality, and their concept is somewhat wishful thinking?
of course I know!
But precisely because they knew it, they became more and more "wishful" and even built the entire practice system around this "imaginary core".
This is like taming a horse, turning a wild horse that is "uncertain, dynamic, changing all the time, unpredictable, and unpredictable" into one that is "certain, stable, ponderable, and predictable." , a war horse that can be controlled.
This is the root of the contradiction.
Relying on his own will and some talent, he just scribbles on the big screen of the world, without following the rules, regardless of the overall situation, and he can play however he wants...
These practices, in the eyes of "righteous people", are simply cancer!
The greater the ability, the higher the talent, the deeper the poison, and the harder it is to eradicate it!
You really have to be capable, talented, and follow the "right path". There are so many laws of heaven and earth, each of which has infinite mysteries. If you want to be a pioneer, are you still afraid that you will be restricted and unable to perform well?
Just imagine, if the "righteous way" turns a blind eye to all this and allows these "magic ways" that are talented, capable, and prefer to be "unique" to spread, the forcibly determined "fictional core" and everything surrounding it, Wouldn't it mean that he would be immediately rushed to pieces and turned into a complete mess?
By doing this, the "magic way" himself felt at ease, but the whole world was harmed.
So, shouldn’t these things that have something to do with “demons” be suppressed and sealed?
After hearing Bai Zhi's explanation, Meng Zhou was really dumbfounded.
It sounds ridiculous at first, but after thinking about it carefully, Meng Zhou actually feels that this is really not nonsense, and there is actually some truth in it.
He almost felt that he was really guilty.
Meng Zhou found that he agreed very much with this concept of "right path".
There is no doubt that he himself has indeed followed an extremely pure "devil's path".
But it is precisely because of this that he understands more and more how difficult this road is to walk. It is really "only those who are amazingly talented and beautiful should not enter this door."
However, Meng Zhou also believed from the bottom of his heart that it was okay for the "righteous way" to be the mainstream, but it would be a big mistake to drive out the "devil way" and completely block it.
When the "devil path" is truly "killed", the "right path" will also enter a countdown to death.
"Dynamic, uncertain, elusive, and unknown" are certainly not popular, and are even subconsciously rejected by people, but this is also the origin of "vitality" and "activity".
When all this is "static, deterministic, and knowable", it is not far from "death".
Thinking like this, Meng Zhou remembered the various contradictions and divisions in foreign affairs that he had glimpsed from various clues a few days ago.
Now, Meng Zhou suddenly understood and even had a new interpretation.
"This...could it be that the upper echelons of 'Right Path' deliberately designed it this way?"
"At the strategic macro level, the 'right way' and the 'devil way' are incompatible, sworn in, and absolutely hostile, with no room for relaxation."
"But at the specific implementation level, everyone is allowed to have selfish motives and their own agendas, and it is impossible to truly kill the 'devil'."
"In this way, a situation is formed where the 'right way' is strong but not independent, and the 'devil way' is sealed but not destroyed."
Thinking of this, Meng Zhou couldn't help but gasp.
"Isn't it because I'm overthinking it?"
However, Meng Zhou quickly firmed up his idea.
"I can think of this level in such a short time, why can't others think of it? Don't treat others as fools!"
...
Afterwards, Bai Zhi shared many secrets about the laws of heaven and earth, which really opened Meng Zhou's eyes.
Among them, what impressed him most was how those laws of heaven and earth showed the kind of "strong will" that seemed to have spiritual intelligence.
After Meng Zhou "translated" it with his own understanding, it showed a different kind of fun that only he could understand.
According to Meng Zhou's understanding, the three ways of forming the laws of heaven and earth also show different "strong wills".
Among them, the laws of heaven and earth formed in the first way, its "strong will" is like a national parliament.
Among them, every cultivator who has reached the Nascent Soul and touched this kind of law of heaven and earth, or the true spirit, has his own "right to speak".
And the cultivation world judges the superiority and inferiority by strength. The higher the cultivation, the deeper the understanding of this way, and the more important the "right to speak" of this kind of law of heaven and earth.
In real decision-making, the Nascent Soul level is just a bystander. Only those above the Nascent Soul level have the qualifications to truly turn their attitudes into a kind of "strong will" of the laws of heaven and earth.
For example, Meng Zhou faced those "law superstars" that wanted to completely destroy him after he successfully passed the tribulation.
The "strong will" of the laws of heaven and earth formed in the second way tends to be the common will of those "sacrificers" and "transformers".
For example, the "habit" of arbitration oaths shown by the laws of heaven and earth such as the "Rope Knot Way" is likely to be the embodiment of this "common will".
The laws of heaven and earth formed in the third way are the most "flexible personality" because they originally come from a life form with clear likes and dislikes, and clear right and wrong!
Even, to some extent, it can be regarded as a special clone.
These are consistent with Meng Zhou's own experience and feelings.
...
Meng Zhou also asked Baizhi Lihen Sect and other "demon sect" forces similar to Lihen Sect.
Standing in the same camp with them, Meng Zhou himself is actually a little uncomfortable.
What comforted him was that Bai Zhi showed a look of disgust and disdain when she heard this.
"How can they be called 'demons'? They are just plagiarists and tailors."
"The statues they created are not even accepted by heaven and earth. They can only wander in the world like lonely ghosts, without a place to stay."
"It looks good, but it's all a dead end. At most, they can't continue to be transformed into gods."
Bai Zhi's comments had too many points, and Meng Zhou didn't know where to start.
On the one hand, Meng Zhou felt that although Bai Zhi was a bit venomous, her comments were accurate and even hit the nail on the head.
At first, Meng Zhou didn't understand the description of the statues as "lonely ghosts". After thinking about it carefully, he found it interesting.
However, her so-called "at most, they can't continue to be transformed into gods" made Meng Zhou a little confused about where to start.
If this is considered a "dead end", then there are not many real "ways to live" in this world.
...
"Xingxiu Tianchi".
Meng Zhou and Bai Zhi opened their eyes, looked at each other, and then closed their eyes again.
Meng Zhou felt a little throbbing and a little emotional.
According to Bai Zhi, when she was at her peak, she had already pushed her cultivation to a level comparable to the peak of the God Transformation.
However, because of her "demon" attribute, when she was about to break through to a higher level, she was immediately suppressed and blocked with almost no chance of survival.
In the end, both the body and the soul were destroyed, and only one "spirit" escaped.
The altar dedicated by the tribe was also confiscated, and together with several other altars confiscated elsewhere, they were concentrated and driven deep underground. With the addition of heavy arrangements, the "Demon Sealing Land" was born.
...
In meditation, Meng Zhou once again thought of the Flame Bird that opened up a law of heaven and earth that belonged to it alone.
Meng Zhou thought of himself from the Flame Bird.
"Thinking carefully, my situation is similar to it."
"To create a unique law path, not only does it require comprehension and talent, but also 'strength', which is not something that human cultivators can achieve."
"Strictly speaking, I can no longer be regarded as an ordinary human cultivator. Apart from other things, just in terms of physical foundation, it is not inferior to the innate true spirit."
"My current realm has jumped out of the framework of the 'right way' and walked out of my own path."
"..."
"..."
Years of thinking, coupled with the collision and stimulation of various information in my mind at this moment, gave rise to various inspirations.
The mystery of the question mark was eliminated one by one.
