MTLNOVEL Chapter 140 Own 'Tao'
Hearing the ancient demon's words, not only Li Changsheng, but Qi Celestial Immortals were also taken aback for a moment.
"Oh? Lord Devil Venerable, what's your opinion?" Li Changsheng was surprised and wanted to hear what the ancient demon had to say.
He has locked this guy up for a while, and although he would occasionally say some sarcasm and unwilling words, there is nothing that needs special attention, so Li Changsheng has always ignored it.
At this time, he suddenly said something beyond the Dao, could it be that he was planning something?
The ancient demon narrowed his eyes and said seriously:
[As long as you want, this seat can help you. 】
Qi Celestial Immortals raised his eyebrows in doubt and said: [Beyond the Dao? you help? 】
The ancient demon was very dissatisfied with Qi Celestial Immortals' questioning, and said with a cold snort:
【snort! This seat is the first ray of origin between heaven and earth, Devilish Qi, which existed at the beginning of the birth of the heavens! What you have seen and heard is comparable to your junior Supreme? 】
[I was reckless, so I wonder if the Devil Venerable senior has any knowledge? 】 Qi Celestial Immortals said with a nonchalant smile.
"Forgive me for not understanding, please sir Devil Venerable clarify." Li Changsheng also asked with curiosity flashing in his pupils.
Gu Mo was very satisfied with Li Changsheng's attitude and said:
【Do you know where these heavens come from? 】
"Where did it come from? Isn't everything born from the Dao?" Li Changsheng responded truthfully with what he thought.
The ancient demon nodded and said:
[Yes, everything in the heavens, including the heavens, is born from the Dao, but have you ever known that...]
[How was the Dao born? 】
Hearing this, Qi Celestial Immortals' eyes flickered.
Can these... be said?
Li Changsheng asked suspiciously:
"How was it born?"
He really doesn't know.
【In the beginning of everything, everything is chaos, nothing. But there are many changes in the chaos, in fact, the creatures were originally born in the chaos. However, what is different from now is that those creatures after birth cannot resist the erosion of chaos, and they will die as soon as they live. 】
[However, they are not leaving behind nothing. When those creatures are born, they will definitely be accompanied by vitality, and when they die, there will also be death energy. 】
[Although they cannot resist the erosion of Chaos Qi, the disappearance time is relatively slow. 】
[Because it is impossible to guess in the chaos, anything can happen. Later, a certain anger suddenly gave birth to wisdom. In order not to be obliterated by the energy of chaos, it consciously strengthens itself until it can survive in the chaos. survive. 】
[And it was the 'Day' that later created everything in the heavens and myriad worlds. 】
Li Changsheng listened carefully to what the ancient demon said, he frowned slightly and asked:
"Then according to what you said, there may be more than one 'anger' that can give birth to spiritual wisdom?"
Gu Mo was slightly taken aback when he heard Li Changsheng's words, how could this kid always pick up such tricky questions?
[Yes, this seat also said just now that there are many changes in the chaos, and there may not be only one vitality that can give birth to wisdom, and it may not be impossible for creatures to have the opportunity to give birth to wisdom. 】
"If this is the case, are there other worlds similar to our heavens somewhere in the chaos besides our heavens?"
【It should be...】 The ancient demon responded uncertainly.
[No, I said you boy! Always consider what to do with these unimportant issues! Can you not go astray! 】
"Just curious, you continue."
The ancient demon coughed twice and continued:
[Because the Dao created all of this, we can avoid the erosion of chaos and survive smoothly in this safe environment. Of course, nothing in the world comes for nothing. Since we are born attached to the Dao, naturally Also give back to Dao. 】
[In order to become stronger, living beings will choose to practice Taoism, and there is no other way to go. As more and more souls practice a certain 'Avenue', the corresponding 'Avenue' will become stronger and stronger. If there are individual creatures that stand out from it, even reaching the height of a Taoist, then the improvement of the 'Dao' is the most significant. 】
Li Changsheng asked: "But as far as I know... each avenue can only accommodate one ascetic?"
[That's true, but it's not absolute. The reason why each avenue can only accommodate one ascetic is because the avenue itself is not strong enough to accommodate the second. 】
"But didn't you say that if the living beings become stronger in cultivating the Dao, wouldn't the Dao become stronger?"
The ancient demon shook his head and said: [It will become stronger, but it is still not strong enough, because since the development of the heavens, the strength of the Dao itself has reached an upper limit. How difficult is it to improve the essence? Anyway, so far, there is no avenue that can accommodate the existence of two ascetics. 】
Li Changsheng nodded and then asked again: "You are talking about cultivators, but what about ordinary mortals and mortal creatures? How do they give back to Dao?"
[The life and death of mortals is to give back to Dao. 】
"Why?"
[The birth of creatures in the world is originally accompanied by Innate anger. After they are born, this vitality will be integrated into the space between heaven and earth and absorbed by the Dao. After death, the same is true for souls and bodies. 】
Suddenly, Li Changsheng has a clearer understanding of Dao.
The Dao is a rule, but it is more like a capitalist. Although he does not explicitly squeeze the living beings, he obtains benefits from the living beings all the time.
"But in that case, how can a creature surpass the Dao?" Li Changsheng asked with a frown.
It seemed impossible at all.
When you become stronger, He becomes stronger, and if you do nothing, He will still become stronger.
[If you want to go beyond the Dao, you can only be detached. 】The ancient demon said solemnly.
"Transcendence? You mean the realm of Immortal Emperor?"
【good! Only in this way can we completely break away from the Dao, and have this opportunity to surpass the Dao! 】
"So Lord Devil Venerable wants to help me escape?" Li Changsheng smiled and said.
[That's it! 】The ancient demon responded domineeringly.
Li Changsheng curled his lips in disbelief: "But when you are the strongest, you are only just entering the Tao, and you are still far away from the Tao. You still help me to escape?"
Hearing the look of contempt in Li Changsheng's tone, Gu Mo blushed slightly, and said hastily:
[Don't look down on me, brat! 】
【Your situation is extremely special. There are only two people in this world who can help you escape, and this seat happens to be one of them! 】
Li Changsheng asked with a flash of light when he heard the words: "Special? What's so special?"
[This is...] The ancient demon paused when he said this, then a look of surprise flashed in his scarlet pupils, he shook his head and continued:
[This matter... I can't tell you yet. 】
It's not that it doesn't want to say it, but it can't say it. Just now, a mysterious force came to it, and many thoughts flashed in its mind in an instant. "So I'm sorry, you can't trust Lord Devil Venerable anymore." Li Changsheng also shook his head.
Who knows what this old devil who has lived for endless years is thinking, maybe he has been tricked without knowing it!
【Boy! I admit that I do have selfish intentions in this, but if I have absolutely no intention of harming you, and really want to help you, if you don't believe me, I can make an oath to prove it! 】The ancient demon said seriously and solemnly.
"That's it, then stand up." Li Changsheng spread his hands indifferently.
Ancient Demon: […]
Soon, the ancient demon had finished the Dao oath, and seeing this, Li Changsheng really took what it said before.
[Now you believe it! 】
"I want to know, why can't others help me to detach, but you can?"
[Because of my identity. 】The ancient demon narrowed his eyes and said.
"identity?"
['Da Dao' just created the heavens, but the source was not exhausted, and used these remaining sources to create the first batch of creatures between heaven and earth on the eve of his spiritual wisdom dissipating. 】
[So although they were born in the heavens, they are not counted as creatures within the rules. This seat is one of them, not only that, these creatures also contain the original Dao source in their bodies, and with the influence of this source, you can obtain the qualification to practice 'self' in advance! In other words, with the help of this seat, you can practice your own 'Tao' before ascending the Tao! 】
Li Changsheng got a rough idea, but didn't quite understand.
What is the qualification to cultivate 'self'? What else is own'dao'?
Could it be that the 'Tao' they are cultivating now is not their own?
"Then according to what you said, as long as I have the so-called original origin of the Dao, I can practice the 'self', and then it is possible to surpass the Dao?"
[Yes! 】
"But in this way, as long as they are the first batch of creatures in the world, can't anyone? Why do you say there are only two?"
[Although it is the first batch of creatures, there are actually only three of them. 】The eyes of the ancient demon flickered with memories.
[One is this seat, and you should know the other one, it is the 'Immortal Qi' who has already ascended the Tao. 】
[As for the third one, he is actually the most powerful, and he is also the first strong man in the heavens to ascend the Tao, but after he ascended the Tao, he left the heavens directly and went outside the chaos. How is it so far? No one knows. 】
"So, what do 'self' and own 'Tao' mean?" Li Changsheng continued to ask with a frown.
[Except for the situation of this seat, the reborn creatures in the heavens, the "Tao" they practice does not belong to their own, but a certain road among the three thousand roads. This seat also said just now, this is" give back'. 】
[Only those who have ascended the Tao are qualified to practice the 'self'. 】
[This is a rule that no one can break. 】
[It’s fine if they don’t transcend, but if they want to transcend, they can only practice their own ‘Tao’. 】
"Why?"
[Because if you are detached, you have to completely cut off the connection with this Dao, which means that they have to cut off the Dao that they have been practicing all along, and everything they work hard has to start from scratch. 】
"But isn't the Devil Dao you practiced one of the three thousand ways?" Li Changsheng frowned, he faintly sensed that what the ancient demon said was very important to him!
[No, this seat and those two creatures of the same origin take a different path. Although the Tao I practice is also the 'Devil Dao', it is my own 'Tao'! Not the Devil Dao in Three Thousand Avenues. 】
[Although this road is more difficult, it can go on forever! 】The ancient demon said proudly.
Speaking of which, if it had practiced the Dao of the heavens here like that 'Immortal Qi' and another creature back then, then its strength would definitely be stronger! It may not necessarily fail in that battle.
But even if it happens again, the ancient demon will still go his own way!
Since there is this opportunity, why not use it?
This is its ambition and confidence in own!
The light in Li Changsheng's eyes kept flickering, he had completely understood what the ancient demon said!
Although the "self" is more difficult to walk, there is no upper limit or restraint, and it truly belongs to own!
But now the Tao cultivated by these cultivators does not belong to them. Even if they ascend the Tao in the future, if they want to transcend, it will be tantamount to starting all over again, and it will be even more difficult to walk. If they are not detached, the prerequisite for them to improve their strength is to improve the Dao of the heavens here! This is containment, and it is a 'cumbersome'!
Li Changsheng was thinking, whether he should continue to practice in this way in a regular manner, or he should listen to the ancient demon and practice the 'self' directly.
He was a little hesitant. Is the path of 'self' too early for him? Is it really suitable for him?
He is not the kind of competitive character, nor does he have the invincible heart of the protagonist in the novels of his previous life. The purpose of his practice has always been to attain Taoism and live forever. He only needs to protect the people he cherishes and stay with them forever By the side, without leaving any regrets, this is enough.
From this point of view, is it really that important to practice the 'self'?
And now the path he is walking is extremely smooth and easy, so why should he seek the more difficult and uncertain path?
But Li Changsheng still hesitated, because there was always a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.
If he chooses wrong now, he will definitely regret it in the future!
The ancient demon looked at the hesitant Li Changsheng and couldn't help urging:
【Boy! What are you hesitating about? 】
[Now your Realm is very low, it's still early, if you want to go this way in the future, it will be even more difficult! 】
Qi Celestial Immortals stood silently aside.
What the ancient demon said makes sense. In fact, in the long run, although it is difficult, it is more promising to practice the 'self'.
But this kind of matter requires Li Changsheng to make up his own mind, and he is not suitable to intervene.
Just when Li Changsheng frowned and hesitated, there was a sudden change between heaven and earth!
While everything turned into light blue, it was also forbidden to stay in place!
Li Changsheng was startled for a moment, then reacted immediately.
Time to stop!
Time is stopped here!
He experienced it the last time he was at Hidden Immortal Peak!
"Om—"
The next moment, a white light bloomed on the sky.
A man wearing a white robe with hot golden special patterns slowly emerged.
Li Changsheng stared at him.
It really is him!
"What are you doing again?"
