After being killed by Tai Chi Tu and transformed from a living body into endless conceptual information, spread to various stages of the long river of time, Zhou Qing's consciousness did not disappear immediately, but entered a strange state.
In this state, all emotions, feelings, thoughts, etc. disappeared, and Zhou Qing seemed to have become some kind of objective phenomenon.
At the same time, Zhou Qing's perspective changed.
His "position" seems to be rising endlessly, and then the entire long river of time, from the past to the present, and from the present to the future, all the scenes come into view.
This long river of time is no longer just a tributary covering a certain world, but a mother river of time that encompasses the entire void and all the worlds in the heavens!
All future timelines, parallel timelines and other time possibilities are all within the mother river.
Except for the Dao Master and the beings above who jumped out of the mother river of time, leaving only their shadows "in the river", everything else is accommodated by the mother river and is subject to the erosion and influence of time.
From this, we can imagine its vastness and greatness, and we can also deduce what kind of magical state Zhou Qing is in now.
All the concepts that make up Zhou Qingzhi's existence span the past, present and future, as if integrated with the mother river of time.
But he also had a perspective that transcended time, and he was not completely assimilated into the mother river of time, so he sank.
In this state, Zhou Qing can see everything. He is everywhere, as if he has personally experienced all time, space and everything in the past, present and future.
Endless pictures and information converged on Zhou Qing, forming the concept of Zhou Qing's existence. In just an instant, they were washed away extremely weakly by the information contained in the mother river of time, and almost lost his mark.
Every creature, every mountain, every grain of dust in the past, present and future...
They are all sediments in the mother river, composed of various concepts and information.
Although the concepts that make up Zhou Qingzhi's existence are endless, they seem too small compared with this information.
Just like the difference between a mote of dust and a sea of stars, there is no comparison at all.
Zhou Qing is a Great Heavenly Lord of the Double Daoyuan Realm, but how many great powers of this realm exist in the Mother River of Time?
But since it is integrated with the mother river of time, it naturally means that Zhou Qing will comprehensively and irresistibly receive all the information in the mother river.
If an ordinary person were in such a state, they would have lost themselves immediately.
But no matter how the endless information of the mother river of time gathers and washes away, at this point, it is the limit, and it is impossible to truly annihilate Zhou Qing's mark and let him completely dissipate in time.
This is because the Supreme Existence Power maintains his existence and leaves him a glimmer of hope.
It is also because, in the endless concepts differentiated by Zhou Qing, there is a light shining in every part.
Although this light is like a candle in the wind and seems to be shaky, it is very tenacious. No matter how the endless information of the mother river washes away at any time, it cannot really blow it out.
This ray of light firmly fixed the imprints belonging to Zhou Qing in those concepts.
This light is the eternal light of the soul!
The real purpose of [Innate Holy Land] is to reverse cause and effect, to help the current Zhou Qing rebel against innateness and become innate gods and demons.
The real function of the [Immortal Light of the Soul] is not to help Zhou Qing resurrect after his death, but to keep his soul immortal and his will alive, so that the imprint of his soul will not be changed or erased by anything.
Its real purpose is exactly where it should be, at this time!
The supreme power of existence can indeed fix Zhou Qing into the state of existence and non-existence, but without the immortal light of the soul, Zhou Qing can only hold on to the final bottom line under the erosion of information from the mother river of time.
In that case, Zhou Qing will become a "stupid person". Except for his existence, all other aspects will be suppressed and he will be unable to do anything.
The final result is that Zhou Qing has maintained this state, which is meaningless. He is here to pursue the path of the Taoist master, not to be washed away by the mother river of time.
But with the light of the immortal soul, it's different.
On the basis that the Supreme Existence Power maintains his existence, the light of the immortal soul can keep his spiritual will active to a certain extent and will not be changed.
Only in this way can Zhou Qing take the initiative to do something.
After Zhou Qing spread to the past, present and future, a relatively special avenue quietly appeared in the void, juxtaposed with the existing avenues of heaven and earth, and together with them, they formed the concept of "the avenue".
This is Zhou Qing's way.
The innate gods and demons are the Tao. Generally speaking, the innate gods and demons come out of the Tao.
But here in Zhou Qing, there are innate gods and demons first, and then the avenue corresponding to them appears in the world.
Although the order is different, the essence and results are the same.
Although this avenue that suddenly appeared is still at the level of illusory Dao Fruit, it is already juxtaposed with other avenues of heaven and earth. It is also located "outside the Dao".
Every innate god and demon must correspond to a great avenue of heaven and earth. This is an iron rule.
The whole avenue suddenly had an extra part, and a "companion" suddenly appeared outside each of the great avenues of heaven and earth.
This triggered a series of chain reactions.
The Dao as a whole "subconsciously" wants to devour this newly emerged Dao in order to maintain the perfection of the Dao.
Compared with the Avenue of All Heavens, how is it comparable, and what qualifications does it have to be placed alongside them?
However, the power that transcends the avenue and is comparable to the destiny maintains the existence of this illusory avenue. To be precise, it maintains the existence of the master of the illusory avenue.
No matter how the whole avenue is swallowed up, the master of the avenue will not move at all, and the path that belongs to him will naturally not be damaged.
When an innate god and demon appears, you can kill him and make him temporarily unconscious until he returns later.
But after the concept of the existence of this innate god and demon returned to the Dao, no one could do anything to him. The most they could do was delay his return, and it was absolutely impossible to completely annihilate him.
Because the concept of the existence of innate gods and demons is the great road itself.
At this moment, Zhou Qing was in a similar state, equivalent to an innate god and demon who had returned to the avenue, and equivalent to the avenue itself.
His existence means that the corresponding avenue also exists.
This is the true meaning of the innate gods and demons, namely Tao.
Therefore, the avenue as a whole wants to swallow up this illusory avenue and make the avenue harmonious and complete again, but it cannot do it no matter what.
When this was not possible, another path was taken under the influence of the great road.
Dao has no intelligence or even instincts. It only has order and cannot think.
If a problem occurs when the avenue is running, it will solve the problem autonomously through its own operation.
If you can't solve it by operating in this way, then try another method until it is solved.
The avenue is infinite and there is destiny on it, so there are no problems that can never be solved.
All the avenues of heaven and earth began to be rearranged, and the illusory avenue was truly accepted, forming a new structure and achieving another kind of perfection.
Structurally, the Avenue is complete again, but fundamentally, the Avenue is still flawed.
Compared with other avenues, the illusory avenue is too weak and is completely a loophole in the avenue.
But it just so happens that this illusory avenue is extremely special.
It encompasses all things, accommodates all eternity, is the origin, process, and end point, and everything is in it.
Under the operation of the avenue, other avenues began to have "power" flowing into the illusory avenue, filling it, making it grow and become real.
The avenues are one, and even if the avenues seem to be completely opposite, such as water and fire, life and death, there is still unity and blending.
This also means that when the avenue is running, there will be situations where you are in me and I am in you in all avenues.
And this situation is the best opportunity for that illusory avenue.
All avenues except itself have "power" absorbed by it, and it begins to truly develop in the direction of being inclusive of all things.
This is a way of practice that is beyond the imagination of the world. It is cultivating the Tao and proving the Tao. It truly achieves the goal of swallowing up all the ways in the heavens and realizing one's own way.
Of course, this swallowing is not destructive, but sustainable and will not cause any harm.
Under such incredible practice, Zhou Qing's Tao progressed by leaps and bounds, and the illusory Tao became real bit by bit at an unimaginable speed.
After being officially accepted by the Dao as a whole, the Hunyuan Wuji Dao traverses every place in the void and void, and also extends to the past, present and future.
Achieving a state of being everywhere in both space and time.
The concepts that made up Zhou Qingzhi's existence, as well as his avenue, were synchronized at this time, connecting all time and space.
Then I saw a special flow of information going against the trend, heading straight upstream in time. In that stream of information, the shadow of a holy land could be vaguely manifested, and then fleeting, as if it were a dream.
This information concept represents the innate holy land that carries the Tree of Destiny.
The Xiantian Holy Land has arrived at the starting point of the long river of time, when the void first opens and the avenue is born.
But this is just the starting point of time. Before that, there is still a node.
That is the time before all things begin, before the void is opened, and before the great road is born.
That is the past of the past, the root of time, the "breeding place" of the avenue, and the beginning.
All avenues originate from there. If Zhou Qing's way wants to truly take that step, it must also let its own way take root there and have the source.
Those innate gods and demons who are truly born from birth don’t have to worry about this at all, because their corresponding Tao was born from there. This is a condition they are born with.
But Zhou Qing is different from the one who rebelled against nature and has not yet attained Taoism.
The innate holy land is the source of innate gods and demons.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
The beginning of all things is the source of the great road.
Both are indispensable.
Arriving at the stream of information at the starting point of the mother river of time, the Tree of Destiny flashed through, piercing the wall of the source of time, and then the Innate Holy Land "collided" directly into the source of time, the first of all things.
The Innate Holy Land is the nurturing place of the innate gods and demons. It is a part of the innate gods and demons and is also a carrier corresponding to the great road.
After the Innate Holy Land entered the root of time, the concepts that made up Zhou Qingzhi's existence and his great path naturally entered the beginning of all things.
At this time, Zhou Qing could already be called ancient.
He can completely say that before the creation of the sky, everything existed before it!
Concepts and avenues all gathered in the Innate Holy Land. The power of the Tree of Destiny began to play a real role. The power of gestation enveloped the entire Innate Holy Land and began to breed.
The innate god and demon named Zhou Qing left his mark at the root of time and began his conception.
It's counterintuitive to say that Zhou Qing was already a true innate god and demon, but it was only at this time that he truly experienced the birth process.
If Zhou Qing can finally successfully break through and return, then from a time perspective, he can be said to be the earliest innate god and demon.
The root of time, he had already successfully conceived it before the Great Dao was born.
This is not the earliest innate gods and demons, what is that.
The first innate after the cause!
But what is being conceived now is not only the innate god and demon Zhou Qing, but also his Tao. Although the two should be equivalent in theory, Zhou Qing's situation is special after all.
Since then, his Tao has had "roots" at the origin of time, and the birth process is no different from all other Tao of heaven and earth.
At this point, Zhou Qing was born at the source of time, and the Hunyuan Wuji Tao absorbed the power of ten thousand ways to perfect itself. Zhou Qing has already embarked on this road of Tao master, and is moving towards the end step by step.
In fact, Zhou Qing does not need to actively participate in these two steps currently being carried out.
The power of the Tree of Destiny will do its own thing in giving birth to the Self.
And absorbing the power of ten thousand ways is also automatically realized during the operation of the avenue.
For these two things, Zhou Qing only needs to wait, but this does not mean that Zhou Qing's path to Taoism is fully automatic and does not require him to do anything.
On the contrary, Zhou Qing wanted to complete the most critical step.
The two things that do not require his active participation are actually related to accumulation. They will fall into place naturally when the time comes.
What Zhou Qing needs to do is to truly transcend the mother river of time and land on the shore.
The great road of every Taoist master runs through the past and present, because their Tao is completely aligned with the great road of heaven and earth.
But the process for them to reach this state is that they first transcend the long river of time, stand outside the Tao, and then drive the Tao to sublime.
Zhou Qing's words were the other way around.
His Tao went outside the Tao first, but he himself was still in the long river of time, and was deeply integrated with the long river of time.
But the consequence of this is that if Zhou Qing cannot get rid of the state of deep integration with the mother river of time and detach himself, then his Tao will not become completely true, but will remain in a state of a slight difference.
Doing nothing and expecting to rely on the perfection of the Great Way to take you out is a fantasy.
If Zhou Qing had not deeply integrated with the long river of time, it could still be achieved. If people first transcend, it can lead to the sublimation of the great road. Then, if the great road sublimates first, it will naturally lead to people's transcendence.
But now, on Zhou Qing, this is not feasible and impossible to achieve.
After he merged with the Mother River of Time, he became equal to the Mother River itself to a certain extent, proving that the Taoist Master can indeed transcend time, but I have never heard of anyone who can drag the Mother River of Time out with him...
< br>
Therefore, Zhou Qing must rely on his own strength to transcend the mother river of time, so that he will not hold back his own way and finally prove the master of the way.
There is no way, because of Zhou Qing's special nature, he must go through such a process and state. If he does not do this, then he will not be able to realize the Taoist master at all.
Tai Chi Tu cannot help Zhou Qing in this step, he must do it himself.
To give a not particularly appropriate example, Zhou Qing at this time was like a drowning person, being rescued by others, and learning to swim and walking to the shore by himself, this has completely different meanings.
Even if the final result seems to be the same, what you get is completely different. This is to prove your own way, not to prove other people's way.
And if you want to rely on the resurrection ability of the innate gods and demons to escape the long river of time...
This matter must not be done, otherwise Zhou Qing will definitely die.
After returning through the ability of the innate gods and demons, the Hunyuan Wuji Dao will still be a little short of reality.
The prerequisite for Zhou Qing to be able to resist the devouring of the Great Dao and use it to practice Taoism is not that his Great Dao can resist the great ways of the heavens, but because he is protected by the power of the Supreme Being when he is in such a state of existence and non-existence.
This is destiny-level power, and Dao Dao can't do anything to him.
But once Zhou Qing returns without attaining the Tao Master and breaks away from his current state, his Tao will be ruthlessly devoured by the movement of the Tao.
It's a world of difference even if it's just a sliver of reality.
The Great Dao of All Heavens now coexists with him, not because of his conscience, but because it cannot swallow up his second choice.
The harmony of the avenues is based on the fact that everyone is at the same level and cannot help each other.
Before Zhou Qing could condense the true Dao Fruit, it only took one Dao movement for his Dao to be divided and completely integrated into other Dao.
There is no malicious intent in Dao, it is simply because Zhou Qing's Dao cannot withstand such a law of operation.
Therefore, before transcending the long river of time, even if you can rely on the essence of innate gods and demons to be resurrected, try not to choose this method.
There are two consequences of doing this, one is to be swallowed up by the great road, and the other is to be sheltered under the Tai Chi diagram forever and be restricted by it.
No matter what the consequences are, Zhou Qing cannot accept them.
To transcend the long river of time, specifically, Zhou Qing must reassemble the concepts scattered throughout time and space on his own, allowing him to appear in this world again.
If he can achieve this step, it means that his realm has reached the level of a Taoist master.
It's just that this is very, very difficult.
The concepts that make up Zhou Qingzhi's existence are spread across endless time and space. Every period of history has his existence. If he wants to merge, he must radiate and even control all time and space. Moreover, he has merged with the long river of time, and it is normally impossible to separate. of.
At the same time, washed away by the information from the mother river of time, Zhou Qing's mark has been diluted to the extreme, almost imperceptible.
Therefore, despite the fact that nurturing the self and perfecting the Tao are automatic processes, Zhou Qing's path to being a Taoist seems to be very easy.
The matter of enlightenment is never easy.
