Chapter 726: Look at the Primordial World From Another perspective
Ah!
In the core hall of the Kun Peng Mystic Realm.
The Four Mei Goddesses set up the Four Symbols Array and were in charge of maintaining the connection between the Dao hearts of the living beings in the Primordial World. According to Li Changshou’s instructions, they planted some “benign mental demons” that could be removed at any time for living beings that might be useful.
The mental demons of good people are evil, but the mental demons of evil people can also be good.
Primordial-level understanding.
At that moment, Li Changshou…
Actually, it was a little awkward.
In his excitement, he had revealed the early plan. Fortunately, he had told them about it. It did not involve his final method to counter the Dao Ancestor and the sharp weapon to break through the Dao Ancestor’s defense.
There had to be some suspense.
If they said too much, it would easily affect Yun Xiao’s Dao heart and their basic understanding of the Primordial World.
However, when he recalled the process just now, he felt a little ashamed.
It was a very special sense of shame.
He was clearly an old man who was quite mature. Just now, he actually had the scholar’s spirit when he talked about entrepreneurship in his previous life.
On second thought, he felt that he might be a little rash. Hence, he recited the sutra hundreds of times.
He was not a performance-type personality. In the end, he had held it in for too long. Yun and Ling’e were the people closest to him. Moreover, they had escaped the surveillance of the Primordial Heavenly Dao. He could not hold it in for a while.
What would they think?
Li Changshou opened his left eye slightly and watched Ling’e and Yun Xiao plan the entire hall and play with some flowers.
Such a suitable scene really made him… unable to help but use his immortal senses to look at his Eldest Senior Brother’s position.
There was killing intent!
Ahem, business.
Li Changshou was reading the Void Bodhi’s memories.
Through the Great Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique—temporarily named—it was actually to incite the Void Bodhi’s mental demon and bury the simulated essence soul into the Void Bodhi’s body to hide. Then, he used the Dao of the otherworldly demons to activate it and turn the Void Bodhi into his second essence soul puppet.
There were actually some risks in this process because the Three Thousand Great Dao were constantly monitored by the Heavenly Dao.
Therefore, Li Changshou chose to attack immediately after arriving at the Kun Peng Mystic Realm. That was because the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao were busy building the barriers of the world and making preparations to prevent him from attacking head-on. Their attention was diverted.
Why would Li Changshou attack head-on?
That would definitely fall into the trap set by the Dao Ancestor. It would be unwise to resist the spiritual energy of the entire Primordial World and the living beings of the Primordial World.
The best solution was to destroy the Heaven Earth system designed by Dao Ancestor Hong Jun from the inside.
Of course, the Void Bodhi was only one of the pawns in Li Changshou’s plan. There were more than thirty backup pawns. They were all Qi Refinement cultivators whose Dao hearts had gaps and whose strength could barely be seen.
However, the Void Bodhi was the most important.
If one were to talk about the reason, the Void Bodhi was only one of the reasons that the Heavenly Dao had chosen.
More importantly, Li Changshou had discovered a long time ago that the Great Dao cultivated by the Void Bodhi was the Dao of Space Dispelling. It advocated the creation of fate and harmony. Void was the essence of all living beings.
His Dao name was Void.
The more famous “color is emptiness and emptiness is color” in his hometown’s Blue Star was an extension of this Great Dao.
He was old and useless.
The Dao runes of this Great Dao were close to the Grand Pure One Great Dao. It could perfectly conceal Li Changshou’s understanding of the Dao.
Of course, the concept of emptiness and inaction was completely different.
Later, as long as he found an opportunity to visit some experts of the Dao Sect in the world, he could nominally accept the elders of hundreds of sects and dual cultivate in Dao and Buddha. That would allow his strength to increase by a reasonable amount.
In fact, the real Void Bodhi was already dead. Only Li Changshou’s second essence soul was alive.
Out of safety considerations, Li Changshou had already destroyed the Void Bodhi’s original consciousness. He had replaced the Void Bodhi’s essence soul with the Void Bodhi’s essence soul and turned it into a part of the Void Bodhi’s essence soul.
The second essence soul technique came from Senior Lang. The Pseudo essence soul came from his research on the otherworldly demons. Li Changshou had used his two trump cards and completed a perfect roundabout.
A Millennium Kill was already aimed at the back door of the Heavenly Dao.
Suddenly, he heard a lark-like voice from the side.
“Sister, let’s go out and greet everyone.”
Ling’e muttered softly, “Just say that my senior brother is in a bad mood and is in seclusion. He can’t meet everyone for the time being.”
Yun Xiao said gently, “That’s a good idea. Pay more attention to your expression. Even Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao can’t say that.”
Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief.
The desire to confide in them just now should not affect their senses.
After they left the array formation, Li Changshou opened his eyes and looked at the hall that had changed. He reminded the Four Mei Guardians and continued to adapt to the identity of the Void Bodhi.
He wanted to be steady again.
He had to come up with a few backup plans. He could not rely too much on the Heavenly Fiend Technique.
After spreading the Void Bodhi’s memories, the information inside was quickly accepted by Li Changshou. Then, Li Changshou classified it according to “important”, “ordinary”, and “trash information”.
The Void Bodhi was born at the end of the ancient times. It was an ordinary Connate mighty figure. It had too many memories.
Therefore, Li Changshou did not look at those memories in the order of time. Instead, he looked at them according to the original impression of the Void Bodhi.
At the same time, the deepest memory of that fellow was when he was chased by Li Changshou.
It was difficult to calm down. It was difficult to be ruthless. Unfortunately, there was no chance for revenge.
Li Changshou could also read those memories through the deduction method. That way, he could guarantee that there would not be any major mistakes.
It was reasonable for the Void Bodhi to be more cautious after being chased by him previously.
In the next half a month, Li Changshou revisited the development process of the entire Western Sect and had a clear understanding of the internal structure of the Western Sect.
At the same time, Li Changshou also saw many good deeds of the Void Bodhi.
Although all these good deeds added up were not as bad as the Void Bodhi’s opening of a Burning Incense Divine Kingdom.
I’ll take the Primordial Path again.
Li Changshou chuckled in his heart.
The path of Patriarch Bodhi’s growth was quite interesting.
Hence, half a year later.
Li Changshou received a message from the Great Sage of the Western Sect to let the disciples who were hiding outside return to the spiritual mountain.
Li Changshou did not hesitate. He imitated the posture of the Void Bodhi walking a few times in the Cave Abode and practiced the most commonly used mystical abilities a few times. He carefully grasped the tone of the Void Bodhi when it spoke and various habitual words…
In the end, he was surrounded by a faint Space-Breaking Dao runes and hid himself to return to the five continents.
When he walked in the world again, Li Changshou could clearly sense that the world seemed to have become more stable.
However, the voices of the living beings were quieter than before.
The Major Chiliocosm that the Void Bodhi was originally hiding in was not far from the five continents. Li Changshou calculated the cultivation level that the Void Bodhi should have displayed and the corresponding escape speed. He arrived at the end of the world of the West Ocean “on time”.
Li Changshou did not dare to use the Wind Speech Incantation and obediently released his immortal senses. He immediately received a lot of news.
For example, the person presiding over the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, Jiang Shang of Chan School, had already presided over the God-Conferment Ceremony on the God-Conferment Platform and conferred titles to the gods of the Heavenly Courts. The Heavenly Courts had prospered.
Before Li Changshou left, he had entrusted the God Striking Whip to him. He had that part of his plan.
However, there was no place for Jiang Shang on the God roll. Jiang Shang, the person who had become a god, had stayed in the mortal world and become a marquis. It made people sigh.
He had no choice. He had been harmed by Guang Chengzi previously.
Li Changshou was originally worried that the Dao Ancestor would forcefully change the memories of all living beings and pour the original script of the God-Conferment.
However, after listening carefully to the discussions everywhere, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Saint of Murder, Zhao Gongming, was conferred the title of the Dragon Tiger Mystic Altar Lord. He was in charge of the finance department, the combat department, the lightning department, and the plague department. The Goddess of Golden Spirit was conferred the title of the Lord of Doumu. She was in charge of the combat department and controlled the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions.
The couple would be considered the Heavenly Courts’ authority in the future.
Clearly, the Dao Ancestor should have been worried about the consumption of the origin power of the world and did not wantonly change the memories of all living beings. He only corrected Taibai Jinxing and erased the name Li Changshou.
“View”.
Senior Lang treated him equally.
In fact, one of Li Changshou’s trump cards was to find the secret of Senior Lang’s death back then. Why did he have to destroy the Primordial World?
According to the information that Li Changshou had at that moment, after the creation of the world, Senior Lang had fallen asleep due to his serious injuries. After waking up, he had also become a Heaven-Opening Essence. With the concealment of his second essence soul, the Demon Fuxi, he walked around the Primordial World.
At that time, Senior Lang had already gotten to know Hong Jun. A few mighty figures had gathered and formed a mysterious organization.
The Primordial Residence Committee.
This organization was very crucial. It almost determined the direction of a series of major events in ancient times. At that time, Senior Lang was together with Hong Jun and was the schemer and chess player behind him.
Due to the fact that the Three Pure Ones were formed from Pangu’s essence soul, they were experts that were specially nurtured by the Primordial Commission.
However, after Senior Lang and Dao Ancestor Hong Jun broke up and were killed by Dao Ancestor Hong Jun in the final battle, this mysterious organization became the dust of the Primordial World.
The Three Pure Ones did not know the inside story.
At that moment, Li Changshou still had two questions that he could not figure out.
One was the process of him transmigrating to the Primordial World. How did he achieve it? The other was related to the True Spirit Great Dao.
That was also the direction to comprehend the Dao later.
At that moment, Li Changshou could confirm that the master of the two Saints of the Western Sect, Zhun Ti, and Zhun Ti, was also one of the members of the “residence committee” back then.
Later on, he should have been killed by the Dao Ancestor.
That easily made people think of the mysterious old man in the “Randeng Ancient Coffin” buried under the Reincarnation Pagoda with the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy’s Spirit Core.
However, that was not the case. The timing of the two did not match. Li Changshou did not know the old man’s identity. However, through sorting out the evolution of the Great Dao in the Primordial World, he had already excluded the old man.
He was a Connate mighty figure who had died in ancient times. He was rather powerful and could not die.
The Primordial World was long and had many secrets.
Li Changshou also knew that he had stayed in the world for too short a time. However, in the past 1,800 years, he knew too little.
Li Changshou did not stay in the town at the ends of the earth. He collected some useful information and escaped towards the Aparagodānīya Continent.
The Great God-Conferment Tribulation had been forcefully ended by the Dao Ancestor.
Not long after he left, many changes had happened in the Three Realms. However, everything was within his previous deduction.
Due to the anger of the Jie Sect, the Heavenly Dao sent down the Heavenly Punishment and destroyed thousands of immortals from Jie School. The final calamity was filled up. The Great Tribulation had officially passed.
The God-Conferment Ceremony was also lively. The Heavenly Courts had sent the God roll and Jiang Shang had conferred 365 righteous gods.
What was more discussed enthusiastically were Di Xin and Daji, the two gods who were in charge of “joyous matters”. It could be considered a supplement to Elder Moon’s Deity Position in the Hall of Marriage. It could also be considered a good ending for the mortal king and queen.
There was also the Goddess of Jie School, which was more focused on by the Qi Refinement cultivators. Apart from the Goddess of Golden Spirit who had become the Lord of Doumu and the Goddess of Golden Light who had been conferred the title of Lightning Goddess, which was also the “Lightning Mother”, the rest were all ethereal.
Some people said that the Goddess of Turtle Spirit and the Goddess of Wudang had died under the Heavenly Punishment. Their souls had been destroyed.
There were also people who said that a large number of experts from Jie School had escaped to outer space and were waiting for an opportunity to seek revenge on the Three Realms.
Most interestingly, the three fairies, Yun Xiao, Qiong Xiao, and Bi Xiao, did not appear at the God-Conferment Ceremony at all. However, they were given the Deity Position of “Immortal Envoys”.
In other words, the three of them had “proper identities” of returning to the Primordial World at any time. They were completely different from Li Changshou, who was a “stowaway”.
What is this?
The Dao Ancestor’s goodwill towards them?
Li Changshou could only smile and not think too much about it.
No one in the Three Realms discussed the battle between the Saints. No one knew what happened in the Purple Cloud Palace. Only a few mighty figures knew that there was an additional stone statue in the Purple Cloud Palace. It was the strongest Saint who could make the Dao Ancestor panic previously.
After the God-Conferment Ceremony, the Dao Ancestor appeared above the Divine Seal Altar and set a rule.
The Primordial World would not appear again.
The Purple Cloud Palace would also hide outside the world. The Heavenly Courts were respected in the Three Realms. The Netherworld, the Dragon Palace, and the Saint Sect would assist the Heavenly Courts in their actions. They would be under the Jade Emperor’s jurisdiction.
The Dao Ancestor was indirectly giving orders to the Saint and the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning to be grounded.
Because the source of the news was that the town at the end of the world was in the West Ocean, Li Changshou could not obtain any information about the Immortal Du Sect. He had to wait for an opportunity to investigate later.
The first step would be to collect information about the Primordial World.
The paper effigies hidden everywhere on the ground were in an unactivated state. They melted in the sand and earth meridians, like sand and dust.
However, Li Changshou definitely did not dare to use this intelligence network.
The alias’ Patriarch Bodhi ‘had to be differentiated from the paper-cutting fiend. He could not have any associations.
The spiritual mountain was already in sight.
The spiritual mountain still looked like it had been cut in half. However, on the mountain top that had been flattened, a large number of golden and dazzling palaces appeared. Immortal light surrounded them, making them look like a holy land for cultivation.
The Western Sect was an old face project.
Li Changshou landed in the array formation of the spiritual mountain very naturally. He nodded at the remaining two old Daoists who were familiar with the Void Bodhi and were also acquaintances. Then, he hurriedly rushed to a hidden hall in the back mountain.
That was the place where the core disciples of the Western Sect held their “routine meeting”.
After entering the hall, Li Changshou’s expression was cold. He walked to the front of the first row of meditation cushions on the left. He first lifted the back of his robe and lowered his head to sit cross-legged.
When he entered the hall, his left foot was still his right foot. When he crossed his legs, the frequency of his breathing after sitting down, and the range of his Dao runes were all filled with details.
He even looked at the residence of the Saint of Welcoming and lowered his head.
“Senior Brother Bodhi…”
An old Daoist priest suddenly sent a voice transmission.
Li Changshou immediately found the old Daoist priest’s basic information and replied via voice transmission, “What’s the matter?”
The old Daoist priest smiled and said, “Can you come to me later? I’ve prepared some immortal tea. I want to give you a taste.”
“I’m busy.”
Li Changshou replied calmly via voice transmission. He only looked at the old Daoist priest briefly and closed his eyes to focus.
It was not that he was pretending to be cool. That was how the Void Bodhi treated his fellow disciples of the Western Sect.
Not long after, twenty to thirty figures sat down everywhere. The atmosphere was rather gloomy.
Suddenly, they heard a sigh. An old Daoist priest appeared on the meditation cushion in front of them. He was dressed in a white robe and had a worried look in his eyes. He was naturally Saint Jie Yin.
Li Changshou and the disciples stood up and bowed to the guide.
Then, they sat down and waited for the Saint to speak.
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
He was forced into this by his circumstances. He would always have one teacher and one master!
Daoist Jie Yin sighed and said, “Now that the Great Tribulation has passed, I have invited you here to discuss how the Western Sect should continue in the future. Now, the troublesome thing that the Western Sect is facing is that our luck has been broken and our disciples have suddenly increased by thousands. You can say whatever you want.”
The disciples remained silent. Most of their gazes were focused on the seven or eight figures in the first row.
A young Daoist asked, “Teacher, did the golden lotus really suffer a calamity?”
“Ah…”
The guide sighed softly. Golden light bloomed in his palm, and a golden lotus seed head appeared.
There were three wilted petals hanging on the lotus seed head, but at least the spiritual power on it had stabilized.
Li Changshou frowned and looked at Wen Jing’s masterpiece…
In short, he almost laughed out loud.
“Forget it. I was wrong in the end.” Jie Yin sighed and said, “Although there are fewer golden lotuses suppressing the destiny of our sect, they are only in the same situation as Jie School before the Great Tribulation. The calamity should be far away. There’s no need to worry. Moreover, the Heavenly Dao has predicted that the Western Sect is about to prosper. Don’t worry.”
A disciple said, “Teacher, can you use merit to restore the golden lotus?”
At that moment, other disciples retorted, “The trichiliocosm has already been occupied by the Immortal Alliance and the Heaven Ascension Hall. The Heaven Ascension Hall’s Hall Master supposedly died from cultivation. The Heavenly Courts directly took over the entire Heaven Ascension Hall. Where are we going to find merit?”
The disciples were worried.
Jie Yin continued, “The Golden Lotus of Merit is difficult to recover. I will find other items to suppress the luck of the sect. There’s no need to be anxious. According to the Heavenly Dao’s prediction, spreading the teachings of my sect is the most important. I recruited you today to spread the teachings. Bodhi, do you have any good ideas?”
Li Changshou followed the Void Bodhi’s personality and immediately said, “I don’t have a good plan. I just don’t understand.”
The guide smiled and said, “What is it?”
Li Changshou said, “Why did we establish ourselves in the Aparagodānīya Continent and not spread our teachings widely in the Aparagodānīya Continent? Although the trichiliocosm is important, the five continents are actually the most important.”
“Alright.” Jie Yin smiled and said, “Bodhi’s words are a good plan.”
Li Changshou’s heart twitched.
He was too careless.
He only considered making a fake identity of Patriarch Bodhi to walk around. It would be much more convenient for him to plan in the future. However, he neglected this detail.
Now, he had to give the Western Sect a plan!
Although the Void Bodhi had lost to Li Changshou a few times previously, through the failures of his other fellow disciples, it proved that the Void Bodhi was not too weak. Instead, it was the “little thief” who was scheming.
However, if he thought about it from another perspective…
As long as he was well-prepared, wouldn’t he be able to drive the Western Sect’s carriage to the Western kelp and the trench?
Tsk, interesting.
