In the chaotic land of time, cultivators are discussing frantically about ‘immortals’ and ‘ghosts’ and putting forward their own opinions, but the final conclusion is very unified. No matter what, the immortal legacy has to face one of them head-on.
Both immortals and ghosts will destroy immortal beings. This is the ultimate verification of the two divination prophecies in the Year of the Turtle.
"How about throwing the underworld and the prison into the chaotic place of time, where the time is still and may be delayed for a longer period of time." Yang Huiying said in a condensed voice.
'Ghost' smiled and said: "It's useless. The ancestral spirit is me, and I am the ancestral spirit. The longevity of the ancestral spirit is also my longevity. When the ancestral spirit returns, it will only merge with me."
“My body originally contains one part of time, and time cannot be confused.”
“You might as well try throwing the ancestral spirits into the chaotic place of time in the ‘immortal’…”
After saying that, the 'ghost' walked towards the central area of the chaos of time. There was a black box in the center, which was the body of the 'ghost'. The 'ghost' obviously had no intention of handing the black box to Li Qing.
"What should we do now?" Turtle Nian frowned. He already understood everything that needed to be understood. The final answer was found in another place of chaos.
“Let’s go over there and have a look.” someone replied.
Next, the cultivators went to another place of chaos to investigate, but found nothing new and the ‘immortal’ did not show up.
Li Qing returned to Immortal Relics, and he had many clues in his mind. After the conversation with the "ghost", these clues came together.
“In fact, I have probably understood the truth.” Li Qing sighed leisurely. It was useless to understand the truth. He had to defeat the last ‘immortal’.
At this time, as the information about "immortals" and "ghosts" spread, monks from all over the world also started relevant discussions, trying to find more clues.
Zhu Xiu discusses the true nature of "immortals" and "ghosts".
Some people say that immortals and ghosts are the embodiment of the will of heaven and earth.
There is also a saying that immortals and ghosts are the incarnations of the Dao, and they are creatures of the Dao who have developed spiritual wisdom and want to enslave the world.
Some people even boldly said: "Immortals and ghosts may be competing for the next immortal realm. This realm is above the Immortal Immortal. To break through, you have to take the lives of all living beings. Whoever wins will be able to transcend the Immortal Immortal and achieve eternity!"
“Strictly speaking, the Immortal Immortal only has the same lifespan as the sky, but the sky will also perish. This is not true immortality. True immortality is the eternity of time!”
Xianyi spent another five thousand years amid this endless debate.
“Master, these are the speculations of monks from all over the world about immortals and ghosts.” Yang Huiying found Li Qing and handed over the results of five thousand years of discussions.
Li Qing glanced at it but didn't look much further.
Yang Huiying asked: "Is there any realm beyond the Immortal Immortal?"
"No, the realm of the Immortal Immortal has been fixed, and he has the same life span as heaven. After entering this realm, the pursuit of Tao has stopped." Li Qing said leisurely: "But above the Tao Immortal Realm of the True Immortal Queen, there are There is a way to find it.”
After jumping out of the avenue, Li Qing's lifespan on the Baishi Monument was fixedly displayed as one million years.
It's not that Li Qing can only live for one million years, this is just the upper limit recorded in the Centennial Monument. It is difficult to estimate how long he can live, but he may live for hundreds of millions of years.
After the conversation with the ‘ghost’, Li Qing had a feeling that even if he lived for endless years, he would eventually reach the end of the years.
“Then Master, are you begging?” Yang Huiying asked again.
Li Qing did not answer directly. Instead, he stepped forward and appeared on the river of time with Yang Huiying. He said: "There are ends at both ends of the long river of time. A long river of time has a beginning and an end."
“All living things live within the long river of time.”
“Eternal life is just longevity in the long river of time.”
“The Immortal Legacy only represents the thirty-third heaven, and cannot represent all the chaotic void.”
“But the long river of time has enveloped the chaotic void. It contains everything. There is no history before the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, but the chaotic void before the immortal legacy still has years.”
…
Yang Huiying has long understood the origin of Immortal Relics. Immortal Relics were bred from thirty-three uprooted world seeds.
Yang Huiying was surprised: "Is there a similar world of immortal relics in the chaotic void?"
“There is none now. It’s hard to say in the past. In the future, there may be a new world of Immortal Heritage, which may even be bigger and stronger than Immortal Heritage.” Li Qing’s eyes were long and leisurely.
Yang Huiying roughly understood what Li Qing said and said in a serious voice: "The next step in the Taoist Immortal Realm should be to jump out of the long river of time and achieve ultimate eternity!"
Li Qing nodded: "This is the path I am trying to take. Others' paths may not necessarily be this way. It is generally called the eternity of time, which is always correct."
At this time, Yang Huiying also saw the footprints and bloodstains on the river of time, and said in surprise: "Blood will not change in the river of time, but footprints will be visible in the river of time. Isn't this a sign of the eternity of time?"
“The ultimate immortals and ghosts are obviously not the realm of Taoist immortals or immortal immortals. Their time has lasted forever. Could it be that the bloodstains and footprints were left by immortals and ghosts respectively?”
“Or maybe they haven’t achieved eternity yet, are half a step away, and are now fighting for the last step?”
Li Qing shook his head, as if to say that Yang Huiying's views were all wrong.
“How is the progress of master’s practice?” Yang Huiying asked with concern.
Li Qing whispered: "There is no end in sight. There seems to be a road ahead but there is no way ahead. Taking a step out of the long river of time seems to exist and yet not exist."
“Master’s Dao Immortal Realm is at the very top, and I’m sure he can reach it in reverse!”
“Maybe.” Li Qing chuckled.
After returning from the long river of time, Li Qing held an Immortality Dharma Conference and invited the Immortal Immortal and the True Immortal with profound knowledge to discuss the Tao.
Li Qing will clarify the path he has traveled one by one, and discuss with the cultivators the possibility of jumping out of the long river of time.
Turtle Nian brought the Tuibei picture he drew in the past and said: "I have a memory. Although I can't remember it now, it is still reflected in the Tuibei picture."
"His words are, 'I saw a corner of the future, a darkness, and the future of the fairy world is unknown. Only by understanding the past and present can we have a chance to jump out of the river of time and live alone'."
“Looking at it now, this just proves what Fellow Daoist Lin was thinking.”
“Fellow Taoist Lin, if you want to take that step, the key lies in the path of ancient and modern times!”
The Tao of Ancient and Modern Times... Li Qing's eyes turned to the past, and his thoughts were filled with myriads of thoughts. Although he jumped out of the Great Tao, he could still use the Great Tao, and the ancient and modern Tao could be used.
Wu Tianyu: "There are two ways to jump out of the long river of time. One is to jump out of the water like a fish in the water, and the other is to build a bridge of time, cross the river, and step through the years."
Zhu Xiu, you say something and I say something to provide Li Qing with different insights. Since Zhu Xiu has not personally taken the step of jumping out of the great road, he cannot cover everything.
However, after brainstorming, some of the opinions of various cultivators were of great help to Li Qing.
After the Hundred Years Dharma Conference, Li Qing entered deep retreat and tried to find a way to escape from the long river of time.
It is less than 30,000 years before the death of ghosts and the arrival of immortals. This time is not enough for Li Qing to take a further step.
Li Qing will probably have to face the ultimate "immortal" when he jumps out of the avenue, but he is always trying. No matter how big the enemy is in front of him, his original intention is to gain true immortality.
Li Qing's pursuit of breakthrough is not to fight against the "immortal", but to seek true immortality.
Five thousand years later, Li Qing looked back on the breakthrough of enlightenment when he dominated the Great Way and jumped out of the Great Way, and had an epiphany: "There is no absolute perfection in the world. The Great Way has its shortcomings, and the years should also have their shortcomings."
“Grassing the gaps in time may help me escape from the years. Among all the ways, the one most closely related to the years is the ancient and modern way.”
“Is the way of ancient and modern times just the lack of time?”
“Then how can we take advantage of the gap between ancient and modern ways and jump out of the years...”
Li Qing keeps trying, but all fail. Now he can walk on the long river of time. It seems that he is not limited by time, but in fact it is not the case. He has truly jumped out of the years, and he can look at the long river of time as a whole from another dimension.
Just like the avenue, Li Qing's current vision is completely different.
…
Li Qing took the gap of time as a breakthrough when he realized the way forward. He sometimes walked into the long river of time and swam in the river.
He gained a lot of new understanding, but never made the key progress that transcended the years.
The idea of jumping out of the avenue cannot be completely copied from jumping out of the years.
Before jumping out of the Great Dao, Li Qing had a lot of accumulation, such as Dao Zunren, Freedom Dao Fruit, Dominance of Nine Daos, and Dominance of Ten Thousand Daos. When he jumped out of the years, these accumulations were difficult to refer to.
He cannot let time honor him...
with the Immortal Legacy all over the place, they are also stepping up preparations for the arrival of the final ‘immortal’. Of course, the Immortal Legacy creatures know that they actually have no effect, and this is destined to be Li Qing’s battle alone.
All souls don’t want the years to pass by, but the flow of the long river of time is unstoppable.
Spring passed and autumn came, and twenty thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
Guzu Ming and Guzu Prison are growing old. On this day, Ming and Prison finally reached the end of their years, and they died completely.
“Hey, I really failed.” A sigh came from the place where the black box was located in the chaos of time: “It turns out that my real name is not ghost, and I actually don’t have a name either…”
As the 'ghosts' dissipated, this land of chaos fell into eternal silence. The long river of time disappeared, and there were no more chaotic years.
At the moment when the 'ghost' disappeared, all the polluted ancestral veins in the thirty-third heaven of the Immortal Legacy realized great recovery at the same time, became full of vitality, and were automatically purifying the pollution.
The fog of Guixu at the end of the Sixth Yin Period is also dispersing.
“My longevity!” Alien races from all over the world grew old overnight, their longevity dried up, and they faced the disaster of annihilation.
Now in another place where the years are chaotic, the sound of Tao rises loudly, the still years return to their normal flow speed, and the darkness that swallows everything disperses, revealing a magnificent palace.
Below the palace, the water is gurgling, which is the long river of time.
If Li Qing were here, he would see a big clue. After the darkness dissipates, a palace actually stands on the long river of time!
In the center of the palace, there was a bamboo couch. On the bamboo couch lay a creature riddled with holes. Blood flowed from the creature's body and dripped onto the river of time, becoming an indelible bloodstain of time.
The physical body of living beings is recovering at an extremely slow speed.
"You...you're awake!" Outside the palace, Liu Sanbian's movements were stiff, and his body was still in the chaos of the years.
"I'm awake." The scarred creature stood up and said with a long look, "I will be punished in the year of the tortoise, but thanks to you, otherwise, it won't be me who wakes up at this moment."
