Chapter 2106 Beheading the Dao and becoming an ancestor
The figure on the stone platform gradually became clearer.
He was a thin, middle-aged man, wearing a tattered yellow shirt. He was sitting upright with his upper body as straight as a pine tree, while his lower body was a bit scary. His legs were actually transparent, like a mirror, and could disappear at any time.
The man closed his eyes tightly, like an old monk in meditation, and did not notice Gu Chen's arrival.
A "Who is it?" sounded like thunder falling deep in the Taichu Demon Mine, causing the middle-aged man's shoulders to shake and he slowly opened his eyes!
These are a pair of eyes that are much more weathered than they appear on the outside. After gradually adapting to the bright light around them, their eyes focused on Gu Chen.
"Who is the Taoist ancestor who can penetrate this place? Is he from Taiqi Palace? Or is he both?"
His voice was hoarse than Gu Chen's. Just after he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly opened wide again.
"A member of the overlord clan? Could it be that I have had a flashback and had this unrealistic hallucination..."
"The last overlords were expelled into the Sea of Chaos millions of years ago. How could they appear here?"
The middle-aged man talked to himself, treating Gu Chen as a bubble of light and shadow.
"I am indeed a descendant of the Hegemon clan. May I ask my senior's surname?"
Gu Chen asked cautiously. In this place, all the power of his bloodline was suppressed, and there was no need to cover up.
He was very curious about who the person in front of him was. He could block the power of Taichu and the power of the Overlord Clan. He was no ordinary person.
"I can still speak. It seems that I am on the verge of death, and I am so fragile that I create such illusions to give myself hope."
"Even if a member of the Overlord Clan can withstand the influence of Taichu's power, the only one who has penetrated this far is the legendary Yaogu Overlord Body. How can I believe it?"
"If Yao Gu's hegemonic body had not died, I would have a chance to repay my kindness."
"Haha, it's unknown whether you can leave here alive, so why are you talking about repaying your kindness?"
The middle-aged man kept chattering, but he just didn't want to believe that the Gu Chen in front of him was real, which made him very speechless.
"Is it an illusion or reality? I believe seniors will know if you gather your energy and take a serious look." Gu Chen reminded.
The middle-aged man's eyes narrowed and he recognized it carefully, and then his face became confused and uncertain.
"Dare you ask me your senior's name?" Gu Chen asked again.
This time the middle-aged man hesitated and then answered, "Chen Daolin."
Gu Chen's expression was shocked. Is this person in front of him Chen Sheng?
However, he did not recognize him immediately, but instead sneered with disdain.
"With Chen Daolin's strength at that time, how could he go deep into the Taichu Demon Mine without dying? Senior wants to make up an identity and make up a slightly convincing one."
The middle-aged man was not angry when he heard this, and his eyes showed a look of reminiscence.
"I, Chen Dao, will not change my name before leaving or sitting down, so there is no need to lie to you."
"Back then, I made enemies on all sides, and the Taoism I cultivated encountered a dead end. With no choice, I had no choice but to enter the Taichu Demon Mine to take a chance. It was a fluke that I survived, but monks like me are going against the will of heaven. There is no such thing as
Nothing is impossible."
Gu Chen was slightly surprised. Hearing what the other party meant, he actually entered the Taichu Demon Mine on his own initiative instead of being forced into it?
At this time, he was already inclined to believe that the other party was Chen Daolin. After all, in this situation, there was no need for the other party to pretend.
"Anyone who enters this Demonic Mine of Taichu will die. Where does this chance come from? Are you crazy?"
"Crazy? How can a person succeed if he is not crazy?"
Chen Daolin's eyes suddenly burst into light, and his face was full of pride.
"The Holy Art of Three Concentrations I created in my life is recognized as the ultimate in the path of sainthood. It has brought me glory, but it has also become my shackles!"
"The ultimate, the ultimate, what is the ultimate? I can cultivate to the pinnacle of the Great Sage with the help of the Three Saints, and become invincible at the same level, but I will always be in the holy realm, unable to take that crucial step to achieve enlightenment and become an ancestor.
!”
"What is a Taoist ancestor? Throughout the ages, everyone has said that the only people who can reach this level are those who have completely mastered the art of Taoism!"
"Bayi Technique was born out of the Nine Dao Hongmeng Dao Principles. It is the Dao of absolute true knowledge in this world. Those who have mastered the Dao are the Taoist ancestors. Other than that, they are all minor Dao!"
"Therefore, no matter how perfect the three holy techniques I create are, I will never be able to cross that step. It will always be a small path!"
"The ultimate achievement of the saint's way, everyone in the world thinks it is praise, but for me back then, it was a great irony!"
"I was once in despair, thinking that I had taken the wrong path, that my cultivation journey had reached the end, and that I had no chance to appreciate the beauty of the mountain top."
"For this reason, Tao was confused, in pain, and even almost collapsed!"
"Fortunately, I never gave up and finally found the possibility of a breakthrough! Do you know what it is?"
Chen Daolin was in high spirits and full of desire to talk.
He was born to die, went against nature, and finally found a path that shocked the world, but he was trapped here with no name, how could he be willing to do so?
"What is it?"
Gu Chen followed his wishes.
"The Bayi Art is indeed the Great Way of True Knowledge. Under the rules of the Hongmeng Taoist world, of course only those who have mastered the Great Way can prove the Tao and become ancestors."
"However, in the Taoist world, there are actually a small number of people who can reach the realm of Taoist ancestors even if they do not master Taoism. They are the ten tribes of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Why are the Ten Tribes of the Ming Gu an exception? Some people say that they are inherited from the Ming Gu and have extremely powerful bloodline, so they are an exception, but I don't think so!"
"The ten Minggu clans are powerful, but if they were born in the Hongmeng Taoist realm and were restricted by the rules of the Taoist realm, they might not be able to transcend the restrictions of their Taoist ancestors."
"This can be seen from the decline of the ten Minggu clans. Among the ten Minggu clans that are still powerful today, they all chose to embrace the Bayi Technique."
"And those races that insist on their own orthodoxy, such as the Overlord clan, will no longer be born after just nine generations of supreme beings, and eventually the race will completely decline!"
"Therefore, the reason why the ten Minggu tribes are exceptions is because they were not creatures born in the Tao world, and their bloodline was originally strong enough. The reason why they became weak after many generations is because their descendants were born in the Tao world and have been affected by it.
The influence of the rules of the Taoist world."
Chen Daolin was talking eloquently. The more Gu Chen listened, the more serious he became, causing ripples in his heart.
It was not that he had never thought about Chen Daolin's guess. He had vaguely understood this when he fought against Zhang Hao.
But what he thought was far from as thorough as Chen Daolin's.
"After understanding the reasons for the decline of the ten Minggu clans, I know that it is not that my three-level holy art is incompetent, but that I am a native of the Hongmeng Taoist world and I am restricted by rules from birth!"
"The rule of the Hongmeng Taoist world is that the Eight Great Techniques are supreme, which means that the three holy techniques I created will always be just a minor way. It is simply impossible to achieve enlightenment and become an ancestor based on this."
"If you want to make a breakthrough, you can only break out of the rules. Others have become the ancestors by proving the way, but I must kill the way and become the ancestors!"
