Zhao Huaizhong opened his hand, and in his hand was a piece of mercury-like substance.
"The entrance to a cave."
Sealed within the mercury-like substance is a cave.
The Demon Lord used this cave to absorb the spiritual energy and the water of three lives in the world.
Zhao Huaizhong relied on the pre-deduced content of the Kyushu Scroll as a reference, and had some foresight of the process after the demon lord appeared.
The demon refining pot and clones he arranged at the beginning were all to 'gain' the demon master's trust, allowing him to open the five-color spiritual world and enter with confidence, paving the way for the final blow to steal things secretly.
The Demon Lord, who was blocked by Laozi and Kong Sheng, was crushed by Zhao Huaizhong's Taoist aura, which gave the things in his body a chance to 'fall' and be taken away.
Zhao Huaizhong hid the treasure money in the halo of Daoli.
Generally speaking, the level of the treasure money is not high enough to steal things from the demon lord, but the situation at that time was special.
The chaos transformed by the demon master was crushed and collapsed, and the treasure money was hidden in the aura of power to be able to play its role.
Zhao Huaizhong felt a little regretful that he could not steal the stone gourd back and complete the free prostitution.
"Let's move the five-color spiritual world back first."
Zhao Huaizhong joined forces with Laozi and Kong Sheng to forcefully promote the five-color spiritual world.
When they returned to the gate of Chanjiao Mountain, it was already the time when the stars were beginning to rise.
The war in the fairy world is still going on.
In the battle between immortals and demons, you can rely on the rotation of battle formations to rest, but there are many head-on battles on the battlefield that last for several days, regardless of day or night.
"It's difficult to shrink this spiritual world with mana."
Zhao Huaizhong and the others wanted to seal and store the five-color spirit world to make it easier to carry. However, they could only shrink it to a hundred miles in size. If they wanted to continue to compress it, they would have to destroy its structure and stability.
Where to place the huge spiritual world that is hundreds of miles away is a question.
High in the sky above the gate of Chanjiao Mountain, the spiritual world is temporarily suspended in the clouds.
The three of them then entered it again.
Zhao Huaizhong reintegrated the roots of the Water of Three Lives into the spiritual world.
The aura within the realm is regenerated and slowly restored.
The three of them came near the big black-backed snake.
The big snake lay coiled like a mountain, its black scales opening and closing with its breathing, and it lay there motionless.
"The origin of this snake cannot be traced back to insight!"
The big snake never moved. After studying it, Zhao Huaizhong and the others found that although it was alive, its spirit was silent and it lacked perception of the outside world.
Therefore, there were huge changes in the spiritual world before, but this big snake never moved!
In other words, it is in a dormant state and needs to be awakened.
"This snake resembles the legendary Emperor Wa so much that it may be an arrangement created by Emperor Wa to separate himself and place it in the spiritual world." Laozi said.
Zhao Huaizhong: "Li Sheng meant that Emperor Wa achieved immortality and went beyond the Three Realms, but specifically left this snake as her continuation?
If she encounters some accidents and dies outside the Three Realms, the snake will wake up and grow into another her. Is this a reserved way out?"
Lao Tzu looked at the big snake: "Another possibility is that the snake is an innate creature created by the five-color spiritual world after Emperor Wa.
Its soul has not grown to the state where it can wake up, and its consciousness is chaotic, so it cannot wake up."
Kong Sheng: "If it is the second possibility, this snake is born with innate talent. I am afraid that Emperor Wa's situation is not good, and he may have fallen outside the Three Realms."
The existence of Emperor Wa at this level is unique.
If she were still here, it would be impossible for the five-color spiritual world to breed another innate being like her.
Only after the death of Emperor Wa and the exchange of Qi in the spiritual world can a second Emperor Wa be nurtured as her continuation.
"If it's the second possibility, this big snake will never really wake up." I sighed.
Emperor Wa was created at the beginning of heaven and earth. He was created by the energy that created the world in the three realms.
The five-color spiritual world is nothing but an embryo.
The Hongmeng Qi that opened up the Three Realms was the main reason for the birth of Emperor Wa.
Now that the three realms are taking shape, it is impossible to nurture this big snake completely by relying on the five-color spiritual world alone.
"I prefer the first possibility."
Lao Tzu said: "This snake is the Qi of Emperor Wa's differentiation, leaving behind some arrangement that has been handed down from generation to generation."
The body of the big snake is formed, but the soul is incomplete. It is more like a deliberate arrangement rather than the innate Tao power.
Zhao Huaizhong changed the subject: "I remember Li Sheng told me that you once transformed into three bodies, and one spent many years in seclusion to understand the way of heaven.
Another avatar travels thousands of miles to explore the secrets of heaven and earth?
Are you the only one left to guard the home in the Three Realms?"
Laozi calmly said: "This is the art of one qi and three bodies. The three can be unified into one, and they are also independent entities, regardless of priority."
"What I inherited in my three bodies is the memory of my past life. The cause and effect of practicing all the way from the human world to the fairy world are all on me.
The Tao body, which is the highest in cultivation, is another attempt at the direction of cultivation.
He cut off the memory and cause and effect of his past life, aligned with the way of heaven, and has gone one step further than me in spiritual practice.
But the specific whereabouts have been cut off from me, and there is no way to tell about his destination outside the Three Realms.
On the other hand, there is another Taoist body who has the same level of cultivation as me and is looking for the edge of chaotic time and space to explore the origin."
I looked at Zhao Huaizhong: "You want to ask about things outside the Three Realms?"
Zhao Huaizhong said calmly: "I killed the Holy Mother of Taiqing and saw something in her consciousness. Certain events in ancient times, such as the whereabouts of the Lord of Interception, seemed to involve cause and effect outside the Three Realms.
Our Lady of Taiqing also seems to be involved with outside the Three Realms.
When I killed her, I felt a power coming and peeping at me.
What kind of place is outside the Three Realms?"
I spread my hands and said: "We are all within the Three Realms, so of course we don't know the details of the outside world.
Kong Qiu and Zhuang Zhou had traveled abroad for many years, exploring the chaotic time and space, just to track down the sages and wanted to break through the boundaries and take a look outside."
"From ancient times to the present, how many people have reached the level of immortality?
After they left the Three Realms, none of them ever came back?"
Zhao Huaizhong: "In the realm of immortality, the boundary wall should not be enough to form an obstacle, right?"
Lao Tzu thought: "In ancient times, there may have been immortals from outside the three realms, but there have never been any since ancient times.
As for how many people in the Three Realms have achieved immortality, we can only say that they are very few. The specific number cannot be defined, and immortality cannot be traced and explored."
Zhao Huaizhong thought for a while: "Li Sheng, are you sure that the immortal body that jumped out of the Three Realms is still alive?"
"Does Emperor Qin think that there may be some unknown and irresistible danger outside the Three Realms?
Do you doubt that the so-called transcendent people have died after leaving the three realms?"
Lao Tzu said dumbly: "Although the connection with the immortal body after birth has been severed, I am sure that he went outside the world and was not robbed or killed.
In the past, there were immortals who pushed things back."
Zhao Huaizhong was surprised: "What is the thing that the immortal sent back from outside the Three Realms?"
"I explain the teachings and have a Tao scroll, which was sent back from outside the Three Realms."
"Sun Gongwang is the one who experienced it firsthand. When he was worshiping the ancestor in the main hall, the scroll appeared in front of his eyes and took shape bit by bit.
Sun Gongwang was already in the first state of creation at that time.
Well, it’s still the same now, there’s no progress.”
Sun Gongwang suffered a critical attack inexplicably... Zhao Huaizhong: "How to determine whether the Tao scroll comes from outside the Three Realms?"
"Although Sun Gongwang is not good at cultivation, he is a gifted person after all.
He can't even understand where the Dao scroll came from. The Dao scroll was poured out of nothingness by a Tao force in front of his eyes, which involves magical means such as virtualization and reality."
Lao Tzu gave a brief explanation: "In addition, we have all read the Tao scroll. The energy and content contained in it are all transcendent of creation, and it can be determined that it is something pushed by immortality!
The other party is the ancestor of the previous generation of Chanjiao!"
"The Tao scroll expounds some information from outside the Three Realms, as well as the method of breaking through immortality at the peak of creation. It is to encourage us to practice, ascend to immortality, and promote the teachings."
Zhao Huaizhong was slightly refreshed: "Where is the scroll?"
I looked at him sideways and said with a smile: "If you want to see it, you can take it for a look. It's not some secret that is not told."
Zhao Huaizhong said happily: "The relationship is good. Is there anything else that was sent back from outside the Three Realms?"
"Jie Jiao's Immortal Killing Sword."
This time it was Kong Sheng who looked away from the big snake and spoke.
He had been examining the big snake, and now he asked Zhao Huaizhong: "Did the Immortal Killing Sword fall into the hands of Emperor Qin?"
"hold head high."
Zhao Huaizhong was a little surprised: "Did the Zhuxian Sword come back from outside the Three Realms?"
"Outsiders all think that the Zhuxian Sword accompanied Biyou Palace and has been banned under the East China Sea. In fact, the Zhuxian Sword was taken away by the Lord of Jiejiao. In ancient times, it flew back from the sky and sank into the eyes of the East China Sea. The banned Jiejiao Mountain Gate Biyou
Palace, it was taken out by Our Lady of Taiqing not long ago." Laozi said.
There are also the relics of immortals in the Zhang family emperor's mausoleum in the heaven. The emperor of heaven can also be vaguely connected to the aura outside the three realms through the jade coffin... A thought passed through Zhao Huaizhong's mind.
There are many mysteries inside and outside the Three Realms, which are quite attractive.
No wonder generations of sages have been pursuing immortality and regard jumping out of the Three Realms as the ultimate goal of practice.
So what is outside the Three Realms?
Is it another copy of entering the fairy world from the human world, just a wider world, or is there another secret?
Lao Tzu just said that the Taoist scrolls of Chanjiao describe it?
I stretched out my hand to grasp it, and in the main hall of Chanjiao Mountain Gate outside the spiritual world, a simple book disappeared out of thin air in a quiet room.
The simple book fell into Laozi's hand. He handed it to Zhao Huaizhong and said, "This is the simple book."
The style of the simple book is nothing special, it is just an ordinary bamboo scroll.
But Zhao Huaizhong saw something different.
"Li Sheng just said that this scroll was sent back from ancient times?"
The simple book was sent back from ancient times, but the bamboo pieces connected to form the book remain fresh for a long time, just like freshly picked Hsinchu, containing the unique vitality of Hsinchu.
This bamboo slip has survived for thousands of years and is not at all ancient.
Time seems to have lost its effect on it.
Zhao Huaizhong only took one look and was sure that Dao Jian was truly an immortal thing.
He held the brief book in his hand, and it took a lot of perseverance to resist reading it on the spot.
At this time, both Laozi and Zhao Huaizhong noticed that Kong Sheng was still looking up and down at the big snake.
"What's so special about this snake?"
Confucius straightened his clothes and prepared to get ready. Then he showed great respect to the big snake and said seriously: "Please raise your head, Emperor Wa!"
As a Tao power circulates, many array patterns suddenly appear in the spiritual world, and the mountains, rivers, earth veins, and even the void change.
The big snake lies in the center of the spiritual world, with spells and symbols emerging from its scales, blending with the spiritual world.
The head of the big snake stuck in its coiled body slowly pulled away and lifted up, revealing its true appearance.
"..."
At this moment, as the big snake raised its head, a clear song echoed in the spiritual world.
I made sure I heard it right. It's a snake that loves to sing.
The singing was still bel canto, with surging bass and clear treble... Zhao Huaizhong, Laozi, and Kong Sheng looked at each other.
The snake finally raised its head, revealing a woman's face, with long hair hanging down her shoulders, and a rather delicate face.
Ps: I started having a bad cold last night. I felt so confused. I bought some cold medicine and almost called the inspection team. It was so uncomfortable...
