In the endless darkness, a spark lit up.
Chen Yao's consciousness awakened again.
"Where is this..."
Sweeping through the endless darkness around him, Chen Yao saw the wisp of sparks in the distance.
This is the only point in this space where Chen Yao can concentrate.
Immediately, Chen Yao headed towards the spark.
Maybe it’s walking, maybe running, maybe swimming.
Chen Yao didn’t know what his current situation was.
I don’t know how long it took, but Chen Yao was finally able to see clearly what that spark was.
A wisp of fire.
Chen Yao felt that he was familiar with this flame, but he just couldn't remember its name.
Chen Yao swam away with all his strength, and then plunged into the flames.
A picture appeared in Chen Yao's consciousness.
That was a giant wolf lying on the top of the mountain.
The giant wolf was so big that even the top of the mountain could not accommodate him.
At this time, the giant wolf kept looking in a certain direction, as if expecting something.
Chen Yao was confused. Like Huo Miao, he was also very familiar with this giant wolf, but he couldn't name it.
“Did I forget something?”
Chen Yao was confused.
Then, he saw the giant wolf turning his head and looking to the side. It was a pillar, a pillar made of earth and stone.
There were various patterns on the pillars. The more Chen Yao looked at them, the more familiar they became, but he just couldn't remember what they were.
This entanglement caused him to be directly excluded from the flame.
Chen Yao wanted to go in again, but was excluded.
Looking at the flames in front of him, Chen Yao felt a little sad for some reason.
At this moment, Chen Yao saw another direction behind the flames, where there were still flames.
With joy in his heart, Chen Yao swam towards the flame again and plunged into it.
This time, it’s a human.
Chen Yao didn’t know why the word ‘human’ appeared in his mind, but it just did.
This human being was directing people to do something in a gathering place. He was very busy. Chen Yao kept watching and felt a little bored.
Just when he was about to leave, the human returned to the house, sat on the chair and began to be in a daze.
After a long time, he took out a small stone and stroked it.
Chen Yao could see his mouth opening and closing, but couldn't hear what he was saying. Chen Yao tried hard to listen, but was excluded again.
This time, Chen Yao looked around again, and sure enough, there was another flame.
Chen Yao couldn't wait to rush over and dive into it.
This time, it’s not a person, but a big willow tree.
Chen Yao could only see the willow tree standing there, but it was clear that the willow tree said nothing or did nothing, but he felt a touch of sadness from the willow tree.
"Why is it sad?"
Chen Yao thought, and then was expelled from the flames.
Non-stop, Chen Yao continued to enter the next flame.
This time it was a giant bear. It was holding a lot of honeycombs in its hands, but it did not eat the honey hanging from the honeycombs.
After a while, the bear climbed to the top of the mountain.
Chen Yao also saw the giant wolf he had seen before.
The top of the mountain was already very small, but the giant bear still squeezed up and placed the hive next to the pillar.
“Why is this!”
Chen Yao felt his head hurt, and then the flames were expelled.
After stopping to think, Chen Yao felt better.
But he didn't think it was right.
Turn around and continue to the next flame.
From each flame, Chen Yao saw a variety of different species.
There are people, animals, plants, and dead things.
Obviously they all look different, but Chen Yao feels the same aura from them.
The breath called sadness.
The more he watched, the more pictures appeared in Chen Yao's mind, and the more painful his 'head' became.
Chen Yao didn't know what would happen if his head hurt in the end, but he just wanted to understand why the creatures in those pictures were sad and what they were saying.
Pictures kept intertwining in Chen Yao's consciousness, the speed was getting faster and faster, and Chen Yao's 'head' became more and more painful.
At a certain moment, just when Chen Yao thought he was going to 'explode', he heard a cat meow.
The meow seemed to be the beginning, and then more and more sounds appeared in his mind.
The feeling of splitting headache disappeared, and he finally heard those voices, understood those voices, and understood why they were sad.
“So, am I already dead?”
Chen Yao, who had recovered his memory, murmured.
"But here, where is it? Why do I appear here."
Chen Yao didn't understand and began to wander in this space.
I don’t know how long it has passed, maybe one year, maybe ten years, maybe a hundred years.
Chen Yao looked at those scenes in the flames over and over again, even though he had memorized every detail, he was still watching.
Without looking, he has nothing to do.
After watching too much, Chen Yao also started to have random thoughts.
He was wondering if he would have died if he had been more careful.
If he had left directly through the River Styx, he would not have died.
After thinking too much, Chen Yao became annoyed again and felt that it was all meaningless.
So I started thinking about his fight at that time. How could he win in that situation?
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, underworld, thunder, time, space, curse.
How to combine the ten ways to defeat the Heavenly Corpse.
Chen Xin combined one by one, even combining the totem powers he originally possessed with the ten kinds of Tao.
No matter how he combined it, he found that he seemed unable to defeat the Sky Corpse.
The eyes of Tian Zhi alone are something he cannot break through, so even if he develops a more powerful attack ability, he cannot hit Tian Zhi.
It is useful to break the magic and break the golden light, but even if you join the golden way, you can't completely suppress the sky corpse.
Thinking of it in the end, Chen Yao gave up on deducing how to defeat the Sky Corpse.
He thought it was impossible.
I don’t know how long he stayed in this dark space, but Chen Yao started to deduce again.
But this time, he was not deducing how to defeat the Sky Corpse.
Instead, he is using his totem power to create something similar to a card game.
He wanted to kill time.
So he imagined the powers of various totems into cards, and then he imagined two other selves and started playing games with himself.
It was quite fun at first, but as he played, he became a little bored because the content of the cards was too simple.
So with an idea, he began to combine different cards to form something similar to a set effect.
In this way, he became interested again.
Time passes unconsciously.
Chen Yao has more and more card combinations in his mind.
One time, when Chen Yao was studying a new card combination, he suddenly discovered an interesting place.
As the number of card sets increased, a cycle formed between the thousands of Totem Power cards in Chen Yao's hand.
There seems to be no connection between the two cards, but they can be indirectly connected through several other cards.
This relationship made Chen Yao very interested.
In this way, any card will actually have a set of cards that can restrain it. Similarly, there will also be a set of cards that can make it stronger.
This discovery made Chen Yao suddenly come back to his senses from the game.
What he was thinking of was not the Heavenly Corpse, but the power he had never understood in the Five Elements.
That power was born because of the Five Elements and died because of the Five Elements, but Chen Yao never knew what it was.
But now, Chen Yao suddenly had some enlightenment.
The five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. It is a perfect system, and other existences such as the Way of Thunder cannot be integrated into it.
What is the power born between the five elements?
What power can make the five elements not exclusive?
Chen Yao's head started to hurt again. He hadn't felt this kind of pain for a long time.
In the past, when he encountered this kind of pain, he would give up thinking because he knew that thinking would not lead to results and would add to the pain.
But this time, he didn't give up.
"What on earth is that thing?"
Throughways circulated in Chen Yao's consciousness, and the power of totems passed through one after another. Chen Yao always felt as if he had ignored it. What.
So he searched for everything he owned bit by bit, until he saw the Styx River and the underworld energy belonging to the Styx River.
Buzz~
In the dark space, a flash of white light appeared where Chen Yao's consciousness was. After the white light, the surrounding darkness began to fade away.
No, it’s not fading away, it’s being covered.
Covered by new tender grass, covered by growing trees, covered by accumulated earth and rocks, covered by born little beasts.
Covered by wind, covered by rain, covered by sunshine, covered by thunder, covered by flames...
When there is no more darkness in this space, the countless flames in this space begin to gather. , converging towards Chen Yao’s location.
The flames were thrown into the light where Chen Yao was, and then, the shadow of a pillar began to condense as the flames were thrown into it.
Totems also appeared on the pillars.
Time seems to be of no use.
Chen Yao seems to have experienced a lot, but also seems to have experienced nothing.
At a certain moment, Chen Yao opened his eyes.
Everything around him disappeared.
What appeared in front of him was the corpse that had just crushed his body.
From those eyes, Chen Yao saw doubts.
"Are you wondering?"
Chen Yao smiled.
Looking down at the fragments of his own body, he did not pick them up. "I also have doubts."
Chen Yao looked at the corpse again.
"So, you come to answer my doubts."
In Tianzhi's puzzled eyes, Chen Yao stretched out his hand. The power of Dao Yun filled the air, and Tianzhi showed ridicule.
Then the way of gold appeared, the way of wood appeared, the way of water appeared, the way of fire appeared, and the way of earth appeared.
The Way of the Five Elements turned into a circle again, but this time, it did not end.
In the other hand, the Way of Space appeared, condensing a Hutian space that was only one foot in size.
The hands met, and the Five Elements Tao Yun entered the Hutian space.
Immediately, the way of thunder was thrown into it, the flow of time was thrown into it, and the way of curse was thrown into it.
After the Tao of the Underworld was finally put into it, the ten Tao aggregates began to fluctuate violently in the one-foot-square Hutian space, and seemed to explode at any time.
But at this moment, Chen Yao smiled.
A wisp of fire of faith was thrown into the Five Elements Circle.
It seemed that something was ignited by the fire of faith, and a breath of life was born from the invisible, flowing to other Tao aggregates.
Every Tao Yun touched by it calmed down.
Immediately, flowers, plants and trees were born within the ten-foot radius.
Immediately afterwards, the Tao Yun of Thunder rose, merged into the space and disappeared.
The Tao of Darkness descends, blends into the space and disappears.
The way of the curse differentiates, blends into all things, and disappears.
The flow of time spread out, and everything in the space began to grow.
The five-element rings spread out and escaped into various places in the space.
At this point, there is no more Taoist aggregate in the one-foot square space.
“Can you explain to me, what is this?”
Chen Yao smiled and threw the space towards the corpse.
Tianzhi felt something was wrong, but he didn’t think Chen Yao could do anything to him.
Then he took over the space.
“What did you do?”
Tianzhi asked.
"It seems that you don't understand either."
Chen Yao smiled.
“You don’t understand, so I’m relieved.”
In an instant, the space in Tianzhi’s hand suddenly expanded, covering Tianzhi, Chen Yao, and A radius of one hundred feet, one thousand feet, ten thousand feet...
After Chen Yao felt that the corpse still lying on the ground was also shrouded, the space stopped expanding.
Looking at the fake Heavenly Corpse in front of him, Chen Yao smiled and said: "Welcome to...my world."
The Heavenly Corpse frowned, waved his hand, and a black spear flew past.
But when the spear reached Chen Yao, it stopped.
"I said, this is my world."
The spear turned, the target was not the corpse in front of him, but the corpse underground.
Previously, Chen Yao had fallen into the opponent's plan from the first moment he saw the corpse.
This was also the reason why he died later.
Bang!
The earth cracked under this spear, and with a power that even the Sky Corpse could not understand, the black spear pierced the entire earth with an endless crack.
Then, Tianzhi saw his body.
"Did you notice?"
Chen Yao shook his head.
"I said, this is my world."
Chen Yao waved his hand, and the body of the sky corpse was lifted from the ground.
Chen Yao disappeared where he was.
Suddenly, a voice echoed throughout the world.
"Use thunder as punishment, curse as law, the five elements rotate, the cycle of life and death, this is my world, that is, the world of Hu Tian!"
Chen Yao's face appeared in the sky, and then, A finger composed of endless lightning pressed down.
The corpse’s body was shattered into pieces with one finger.
Until the body disappeared, the corpse in heaven did not understand.
Why did Chen Yao become so powerful.
Create your own world?
Impossible.
……
Outside the Hutian Realm.
Looking at the corpse that died in the world, Chen Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
“It’s finally solved, although it’s not perfect.”
Looking at the Hu Tianjie in his hand, Chen Yao smiled.
Recalling everything he experienced in that darkness, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. If he hadn't clearly understood that the born and unborn thing among the five elements is the way of life, the result would probably not be in this way.
After understanding the way of life, Chen Yao can be resurrected and reshape his body.
And the reason why it was crushed to pieces by the Heavenly Corpse and its body has not yet died is because half of the Way of Life appeared before him.
If Chen Yao had not understood the way of life in that space, then he would always be in that space.
But there is another most critical point, the fire of faith!
The fire of faith has some inexplicable connection with the way of life.
Therefore, only those flames can appear in that space, and only then can Chen Yao recover all his memories, and only then can he discover the way to life in the subsequent process.
Of course, the way of life is only part of Chen Yao's gains in that space.
The Hutian Realm is Chen Yao’s biggest gain after his enlightenment.
Eleven paths form the most basic structure of a world. When the rules are perfect, the Hutian world appears.
However, the Hutian Realm at this time is not invincible. The reason why Tianzhi has no power to fight back is because he is in the Hutian Realm and must abide by the rules of the Hutian Realm.
And this rule is formulated by the Tao of Hutian Realm.
And Chen Yao is the Tao of Hutian Realm.
Unless the Heavenly Corpse breaks the power of a world with one blow, he must abide by the rules of the Hutian Realm.
In this way, His failure is inevitable.
Of course, it just failed.
Chen Yao did not completely kill the Heavenly Corpse in the Hutian Realm. Perhaps the Heavenly Corpse will be resurrected in the Hutian Realm after a long time.
But at that time, Hutian Realm was no longer the current Hutian Realm.
Putting away the Hutian Realm, Chen Yao looked at the wilderness, smiled, and disappeared.
......
Xia Longhu and Yin Li waited on the bloody road for a long time.
There was even a moment when both of them realized that the connection between the Pillar God and them was broken.
Fortunately, it recovered after that, otherwise the two of them would have started preparing for the funeral.
"What will happen over there with the Pillar God?"
"How about you do some divination?"
Xia Longhu said suddenly.
“Do you want me to die?”
Yin Li was angry.
None of those two beings can be divined by him, and he divined two at once. If he doesn't die, who will die?
Just when the two of them were silent, a voice sounded in their mind.
After hearing the words ‘solved’, Xia Longhu and Yin Li both looked surprised.
Immediately, they saluted to the void:
"The Pillar God is eternal!"
......
Time flies by in a blink of an eye.
During this period, Chen Yao explored all the places deep in Shiwanda Mountain.
Everything that should be collected has been collected, and what was confiscated will be collected one after another in the future.
Nowadays, in the entire Shiwanda Mountain... no, on this entire "island", there is no living being who is not a believer of Chen Yao.
Chen Yao also used the accumulated fire of faith to increase his control of the way of space to 50%.
Originally, he wanted to improve, but it was difficult to get above 50%.
So he did not rush, but mastered all the other ten paths to 50%.
In this way, his Hutian Realm became indestructible with the addition of Tao.
However, Chen Yao did not eliminate the corpses in Hutian Realm.
Because when he was preparing to eliminate the Heavenly Corpse, he suddenly had a feeling that if he eliminated the Heavenly Corpse, the integrity of the Hutian Realm would be greatly compromised.
After thinking about it, Chen Yao vaguely understood something.
Tao does not allow perfect things to exist.
Even the existence of Hutian Realm, which is its own world, must abide by the rules of the Tao of the world where Chen Yao lives.
In this way, Chen Yao no longer went against the grain.
Seeing that he could no longer improve, Chen Yao no longer missed it.
Flying up, he came under the Gangfeng layer.
Looking at the continent at his feet, Chen Yao threw down the pot of heaven in his hand.
The Hutian Realm continues to expand, covering this endless ‘island’.
Then, the Hutian Realm shrank and returned to Chen Yao's hands.
The island under your feet is still there, but all the creatures on it have fallen into the same world of Hutian Realm.
Looking at the unconscious believers in the Hutian Realm, Chen Yao put away the Hutian Realm and looked into the distance.
After the believers’ problems are solved, it’s time to leave.
In one step, Chen Yao stepped into the Styx space.
"It's time to become a 'traveler'."
Take another step, Chen Yao fell into the River Styx, heading towards the unknown endless sea.
What will be waiting for him there?
