Gu Chen gradually recalled every bit of his childhood.
Grandpa Gu Xian, the third elder, Gu Heng, Gun Ning, Gu Xu... characters one after another appear in Gu Chen's memories.
.
I don't know how long it took, but Gu Chen woke up from his memories. Everything intact in front of him was once again turned into ruins, silent at the bottom of Juzhang Lake.
Gu Chen suddenly felt a feeling in his heart - bitterness!
Just like in the past in the mortal kingdom of the Northern Wilderness, when they were comprehending life, the lives of Gu Chen, Gu Zhou, Guan Qi, Zhang Yuan, Cheng Zhan, and Sima Yan - in the end, turned into bitterness in Gu Chen's heart.
'.
There is a lot of beauty, happiness, and joy in the world, but there is also endless pain, suffering, and sorrow——
Often, beauty, happiness, and joy are like fleeting flashes in the pan and do not last long in memory, while pain, suffering, and sorrow are deeply rooted in people's hearts and will be unforgettable for a long time.
One thing disappears and the other rises. The world is like a big sea of suffering, and the thoughts of all living beings sink in the sea of suffering. Beauty is like small islands in the sea of suffering, sometimes rising to the surface of the water, sometimes being submerged by the sea.
Most of all living beings in the sea of suffering are sinking in the sea of suffering. If you are lucky enough to find a small island of happiness, it will be difficult to maintain it for long. It will be submerged by the sea of suffering. In the sea of suffering, there is no land that will never sink.
The so-called sea of suffering is just an abstract idea in Gu Chen's mind. It is not the world, it is really a sea. It is a spiritual ocean. Although it cannot be seen, it does not exist.
This sea of suffering cannot be touched, touched, or felt by the body. Even with consciousness and thoughts, it is difficult to know, because the sea of suffering is vast and boundless, and the consciousness of all living beings is just a speck of dust compared to the sea of suffering.
Ants are too small. Although they live between heaven and earth, they cannot know how vast and vast the world is. They even don't know what the so-called heaven and earth are at all.
Compared to a leech, dust is even smaller. Even if it is in the sea of suffering, it will not be known.
Throughout history, only wise men with great wisdom and understanding can feel the existence of the sea of suffering.
Even if your mind is as strong as ancient times, when you recall the past, you will still feel pain in your heart and your thoughts will sink into the sea of suffering, let alone ordinary people.
"Every time I think of the dead souls of the Gu family, I will sink into the sea of suffering. Unless I can revive the dead souls of the Gu family, will it be impossible for my mind to escape from the sea of suffering?"
"Being ruthless is not the way to escape the sea of suffering. Even if the heart becomes more cold-blooded and ruthless, it only means forgetting the suffering in the heart. In fact, the mind is still sinking into the sea of suffering, but it is impossible to feel it. That is just self-deception."
"The Path of Merciless is rumored to be the supreme avenue in the universe. Since the beginning of the universe and the formation of heaven and earth, 'Heaven' and 'Earth' have possessed the Path of Merciless and become the king of the gods in one fell swoop."
"Listen to what 'Immortal Emperor Kunwu' said, 'Hong' is the way of 'Hong' that is comprehended. It is vast and boundless, like a deep ocean, it determines the world, embraces all things, and is an omnipotent supreme road. But in the end, there is nothing."
It cannot be the rumor that 'Hong' failed to transcend the sea of suffering and turned to comprehend the 'ruthless' path, betrayed the 'Immortal Emperor Kunwu' and surrendered to heaven."
"Hmph - the sea of suffering is boundless, even the heaven and the earth are sinking into the sea of suffering. It's just because the world is ruthless and does not know the pain, so it thinks that it is not in the sea of suffering. The so-called supreme road of ruthlessness cannot transcend the sea of suffering."
Gu Chen seemed to have some realization in his heart, standing by Juzhang Lake and talking to himself.
"The Ruthless Avenue is the supreme avenue in the universe, the way of heaven and earth. Even the Ruthless Avenue cannot escape from the sea of suffering. So how can we escape from the sea of suffering?"
"There are endless avenues in the universe, and the ruthless avenue of heaven and earth is the most extreme. Even the supreme ruthless avenue cannot escape the sea of suffering. So which avenue should I understand? Become one with myself?"
"The Wuqing Avenue is already the most powerful one. 'Immortal Emperor Kunwu' has understood the 'First Avenue'. Although it is not weak to the Wuqing Avenue, it cannot surpass it. 'Hong' actually possesses 'Hong' and 'Qingwu'.
'There are two supreme avenues. Even if I understand the 'First Avenue' and achieve something in the future, and can reach the level of 'Immortal Emperor Kunwu', I will still be unable to obtain 'Hong', and I will not be able to transcend heaven and earth!"
"Then why don't I create my own way? Surpass the first, surpass heaven and earth, surpass Hongda!"
Create your own way!
Gu Chen's eyes suddenly flashed with bright light.
At this moment, Gu Chen's mind rose to a new level, and he suddenly woke up.
In the past, Gu Chen was obsessed with understanding which avenue of heaven and earth, but no matter which avenue of heaven and earth, it could not surpass heaven and earth. Even the 'First Avenue' of 'Immortal Emperor Kunwu' could not be surpassed. Therefore, Gu Chen
Chen has been confused in his heart, not knowing the direction or goal.
At this moment, Gu Chen suddenly thought of a new way to break the world, and he suddenly woke up from his confusion. His front was no longer a fog.
"My ancient determination to 'break the Tao' naturally led me to create a 'Tao' that has never existed since ancient times, to break the heaven and the earth, and to break all avenues."
Gu Chen's road to spiritual cultivation was originally filled with fog, and it was impossible to see through it. It seemed to be at the end. Now the fog has dissipated, and the road ahead has become clear. The road to spiritual practice has been extended infinitely, until it reaches an incomparably distant place that even the eyes cannot see.
The place.
However, there is a gap between the road ahead and the road under Gu Chen's feet at this moment. This gap is extremely wide and steep. If you want to embark on the path of cultivation ahead, you must first cross this gap.
This gap is precisely because of the lack of Gu Chen's "Tao". Therefore, although Gu Chen has found the direction, if he does not succeed in joining the Tao, the road ahead will eventually be like a flower in the water or the moon in the mirror.
, cannot be touched.
Gu Chen must synthesize his own 'Tao' and build a bridge between the two paths of cultivation. Only in this way can Gu Chen continue to move forward on the road of cultivation.
The emergence of a new 'great road' means that this path of cultivation is a path of cultivation that has never appeared in ancient times. How far can it go and where is the end point? Everything is still unknown.
Gu Chen will not think about the futile things in the future for the time being, but how the current relationship can create a "great way" that can surpass the first, transcend the world, and transcend the grand.
How easy is it to create a great way?
In particular, creating a "great road" that transcends the first, transcends heaven and earth, and transcends grandeur is even more difficult to reach the sky. It is almost a dream.
However, Gu Chen was not discouraged at all and found a way forward. The fighting spirit in Gu Chen's heart was surging.
Gu Chen is not afraid of the difficulties and hardships on the way forward, but what he is afraid of is that he has no direction and does not know how to go?
Now that the path of cultivation has clearly appeared in front of him, all he has to do is to create a 'big road' and build a bridge between the two paths of cultivation. Seeing the direction, Gu Chen seems to have seen the future.
Generally, confidence increases greatly.
"Everything in the world has a reason for its existence. They all contain great avenues. Which avenue is strong and which is weak? It is difficult to tell, but it is certain that the first avenue, the ruthless avenue, and the Hongzhi avenue are all the top existences among the infinite avenues."
"Even the best avenue can't transcend the sea of suffering. So, I only need to create a path that transcends the sea of suffering, so that I can surpass the first place and transcend the world!"
"Since the spiritual world is a big sea of suffering, and the consciousness of all living beings are ups and downs in the sea of suffering, why don't I build a general boat of the soul? It can travel on the sea of suffering? The boat that travels on the water is a plate! This kind of boat I created
The avenue is called - 'The Avenue of Pan'."
Gu Chen's eyes were shining with joy and excitement. In his spiritual world, a large ship suddenly appeared, carrying his thoughts and rushing out of the sea of suffering. In an instant, his spirit was extremely refreshing, and he looked at the world
, the power of the invisible law was seen by Gu Chen, and he easily grasped it in his hand, and understood it instantly.
Gu Chen's body suddenly flashed and flew into the sky. He shouted: "Pan——!"
The sound was so loud that it shook the sky. The sound waves came out from his mouth and spread in all directions. A word "pan" appeared in the sky, as big as a thousand miles, like a golden hook of a stylus, shocking people's hearts.
At this moment, the entire ancient immortal world, the mortal universe...all the monks and mortals vaguely heard a voice: Pan!
Gu Chen's voice spread through the spiritual world, spread in the sea of suffering, and reached everyone's ears in an extremely strange way.
This sound is louder and more vigorous than Tianyin. Although I can hear it, I don't know where the sound comes from. However, this sound of the word "pan" shocks everyone's heart and is deeply imprinted on everyone.
within a person's soul consciousness.
However, Gu Chen's time to transcend suffering was short-lived.
Suddenly a huge wind wave blew up from the sea of suffering, which crushed Gu Chen's soul boat to pieces, and Gu Chen sank into the sea of suffering.
The extremely refreshing spiritual feeling disappeared in an instant, and the word "Pan" as big as a thousand miles in the sky also collapsed in an instant and turned into nothingness.
It is not easy to build a soul boat. Gu Chen's cultivation is simply unable to play any role in the spiritual world. The soul boat he built is too fragile. A small storm in the sea of suffering.
It can crush Gu Chen's soul boat to pieces and let him continue to sink into the sea of misery.
However, although his mind sank into the sea of suffering, Gu Chen's feeling was completely different from before.
Although he has sunk into the sea of suffering now, he has already broken out of the sea of suffering. He has looked down at the sea of suffering, as if he were beyond the sky and the earth, looking at the heaven and the earth. He has seen something that others can never know or imagine.
world.
Jumping out of things and looking at the essence of things is something that no one who is drowning in the sea of suffering can understand.
