Taoist world

Sure enough, the Lord of Nine Cauldrons pointed to the oval he had drawn and said, "This is the original appearance of the world where we live."

Ji Kongfan couldn't help but frown slightly, obviously unable to understand why it was this shape.

Jiang Yun hesitated for a moment and then said, "Senior, why don't you rest a bit more? Let me take over the preceding part!"

As he spoke, Jiang Yun displayed the memory scenes of the Primordial Ash Flame that he had seen, using the Great Dao.

Anyway, since the Lord of Nine Cauldrons already knew that he had obtained the Primordial Breath, Jiang Yun didn't need to hide it.

And watching the memories of the Primordial Ash Flame was naturally much easier for Ji Kongfan to understand than the Lord of Nine Cauldrons' abstract drawing method.

The Lord of Nine Cauldrons smiled slightly and nodded, "Little fellow, you're quite sensible. You take over!"

He stopped drawing and began to watch attentively with Ji Kongfan.

When all the images ended, Ji Kongfan's face showed a look of realization.

Especially the process of the emergence of the Primordial Breath, which gave him some enlightenment.

The Lord of Nine Cauldrons continued, "Now you understand, this is the world we live in."

"However!"

Speaking of this, the Lord of Nine Cauldrons stretched out his finger again and drew a horizontal line in the middle of the oval he had drawn, slightly above the center.

In this way, the oval was divided into two parts, upper and lower.

The lower half has a larger area, accounting for two-thirds of the entire oval.

The upper half has a smaller area, only one-third.

"The bottom is the old domain where we are now."

"And the top is the new domain where you live, which is what you call the outside of the cauldron."

"Although the new domain originally existed, perhaps because the Primordial Breath gradually sank, the environment of the new domain was completely unsuitable for habitation, and no living beings were born. It was just a barren area."

"The old domain is different. As time passed, a large number of living beings were gradually born, growing and living within it."

"In the beginning, the old domain had no division of nine domains. It was like the egg you see here."

"Although there were some boundary seams and cracks, it was basically a whole."

"This allowed all the living beings in the old domain to travel freely, with almost no barriers."

"Therefore, cultivators appeared in the old domain very early, and the overall strength of the cultivators, including the level of cultivation, etc., was far beyond the new domain."

"However, the sudden appearance of the Nine Fiends shattered everything."

"They not only almost shattered the entire old domain, re-divided it into nine major domains, each occupying one."

"Moreover, they slaughtered the living beings of the old domain wantonly, even treating them as food and materials."

"The living beings of the old domain were naturally separated, their strength dispersed, and it was extremely difficult to contact each other. They were simply unable to contend against the Nine Fiends anymore."

"Fortunately, there were still some powerful seniors who could travel through the nine domains."

"It was with their help that the living beings of the various domains were connected, allowing the strong to decide to launch a counterattack against the Nine Fiends."

"But before the counterattack, they needed to make the worst plan, which was to find a suitable place for the living beings to live after the war."

"Naturally, they set their sights on the new domain."

"Thus, those seniors began to transform the new domain, making it suitable for our living beings to live in."

"The transformation process was not only extremely long but also very dangerous."

"In short, after paying a considerable price and the lives of countless seniors, the new domain was finally transformed."

"Nine cauldrons are located above this horizontal line, and nine cauldrons are located below the horizontal line."

"It is equivalent to suppressing them simultaneously from the inside and outside, which barely trapped the Nine Fiends!"

Jiang Yun nodded secretly.

Everything that the Lord of Nine Cauldrons said was almost consistent with Jiang Yun's speculation.

Jiang Yun had long believed that the old domain and the new domain were similar to the inside and outside of a mirror, one located inside the mirror and the other located outside the mirror.

The Lord of Nine Cauldrons paused for a moment and continued, "However, the nine cauldrons of the old domain still have various powers that can be absorbed and utilized."

"Although the environment of the new domain has been transformed to be suitable for habitation, various powers are still relatively scarce."

"Helplessly, I allowed the living beings of the old domain who survived after the war to live in the nine cauldrons and outside the cauldrons in turn after they arrived in the new domain."

"On the one hand, the power of living beings can be used to supply the nine cauldrons and suppress the Nine Fiends!"

"On the other hand, it is to help the new domain accumulate power!"

"When the power of the new domain gradually becomes sufficient, they can leave the nine cauldrons."

Jiang Yun and Ji Kongfan were both cultivators, so they immediately understood what the Lord of Nine Cauldrons said.

The power between heaven and earth has always existed, but the most important reason why it can always be continuously produced is the increase in the number and strength of cultivators.

Simply put, cultivators absorb various sources of power from heaven and earth, and then, in turn, they will feed their own power back to heaven and earth!

Even if cultivators die, the power in their bodies will return to heaven and earth.

The more cultivators there are, the more power they absorb, and the more power they feed back.

The new domain initially had no living beings. It was finally transformed to be suitable for habitation, but that was only for habitation.

Therefore, the Lord of Nine Cauldrons' approach of allowing the living beings of the old domain to live in and out of the cauldrons in turn was indeed the most appropriate.

"Alas!"

Suddenly, the Lord of Nine Cauldrons sighed leisurely, "But even if the Nine Fiends are trapped, if they cannot be killed, they will still be a huge hidden danger."

"The Nine Fiends were unwilling to be trapped and even learned of the existence of the new domain."

"Therefore, the Nine Fiends each separated a part of their power and went to the new domain, even entering the nine cauldrons!"

"You can probably imagine what happened next."

"The partial power of the Nine Fiends is that kind of vague human figure!"

"They used their power to gradually invade each cauldron, eventually successfully replacing the original power of each cauldron with their power."

"The nine cauldrons of the new domain, which were originally used to suppress the Nine Fiends, have turned into the cauldrons of the Nine Fiends instead!"

"Or rather, not nine cauldrons, but eight cauldrons."

"There is still one crimson cauldron that has not been completely invaded."

The Lord of Nine Cauldrons reached out again and pointed to the horizontal line he had drawn, saying, "When the time is ripe, the Nine Fiends will use the nine cauldrons of the new domain to first break through this barrier, and then attack the nine cauldrons of the old domain, so that they can finally escape!"
