"After that battle, the earth's veins in the west collapsed and the spiritual energy dried up. However, the power of the Tao flourished and the demonic energy declined. Hongjun became the first person to achieve the Holy Fruit of Three Corpses since the beginning of the world."

After finishing speaking, Sect Master Tongtian looked at Su Yang and asked doubtfully, "Is there any doubt about this matter?"

"Nothing wrong."

Su Yang chuckled and said in a calm tone, "I have to say that Sage Tongtian does have insight into the past."

"Now that we understand that Hongjun entered the Holy Realm after defeating Luohu, have you ever noticed the causal connection?"

As soon as these words came out, Sect Master Tongtian's expression suddenly changed, Nuwa also felt a strange aura, and ripples appeared in his heart.

For a moment, the two people's eyes met, and they all turned to Su Yang, saying in unison, "Destined enemy!"

Su Yang nodded slightly, his eyes flashing slightly. "That's exactly it."

"Hongjun is the symbol of Tao, and Luohu is the root of devil."

"If there was a fight back then, the winner was Luohu, and the person sitting high up today teaching Zixiao Palace might be Demon Lord himself."

His tone was indifferent, half-smiling, "Of course, this is just a joke. How could a being like Luohu be willing to sit there and preach the Dharma to others?"

"Heaven favored Hongjun, which resulted in Demon Ancestor Rahu's defeat in that battle, which invisibly helped Hongjun, allowing him to use the vast energy to enter the Three Corpses Holy Realm."

"Later, Hongjun gave a sermon in the Zixiao Palace, and he did pass on the method of sanctifying the three corpses, but he concealed a key point - this method cannot be obtained through meditation."

"Only by defeating the destined opponent, seizing his destiny, and then seizing his own ray of true meaning in the world, can he truly break through the threshold and achieve the position of the Three Corpses."

"Because of this, even though Three Pure Ones has practiced to the late Quasi-Saint stage, he is still at a loss and cannot find the path to a higher realm."

"Hongjun never intended for anyone to actually complete this road."

After the words fell, both Nuwa and Tongtian remained silent.

Ji Ziyue's eyes flashed slightly, and he couldn't help but speak, "In that case, why did he pass down the method of Heavenly Dao Sage, but didn't make the complete method of the three corpses public?"

"Both of them are called Saint. How can they be so different?"

Su Yang chuckled and said in a calm tone, "It's just because Hongjun at that time had already been quietly penetrated by Will of the Heavenly Dao."

"If he grants the true Three Corpses Dao Proving method to the six Heavenly Dao Sage, Primordial World will surely fall into endless disputes."

"The so-called method of Heavenly Dao Sage is actually a broken path. You must rely on Primordial Violet Qi to cross the last step. This is the shackles set by the way of heaven through Hongjun."

"Although the Six Saints are respected, they are still controlled by others; Hongjun is above them and controls the overall situation."

"Three realms co-governed and restrained each other, Primordial World was able to maintain balance and continue forever."

"But if the Three Corpses' Way had been spread all over the world back then, with the Primordial World's vastness, and the emergence of wizards in large numbers, the number of Three Corpses Sage today would have been immeasurable."

Su Yang's tone is calm, but every word is like a hammer.

When these words fell into their ears, both Nuwa and Tong Heaven's Will were shocked.

They had to admit that this statement went straight to the essence.

If the method of three corpses had been popularized back then, those existences that stopped at Quasi-Sage Peak might not be able to break through the shackles.

Zhenyuanzi stands on the top of the earthly immortals, Kunpeng hides outside Tianji, Minghe is in charge of the Blood Sea, Dipamkara Buddha wanders about cause and effect, Maitreya retreats to the pure land, Tathagata sits in charge of Spirit Mountain, Haotian controls the authority of the three realms, Queen Mother rules Kunlun Jade Pool.

Are there more than one or two such characters?

Each one of them is a person of amazing talent and beauty. If given the opportunity, who can say that they cannot ascend to the Realm of the Three Corpses?

What's even more frightening is that once these powerful men become saints, they will not be willing to be controlled by heaven.

They will treat the rules of heaven as if they are nothing, causing order to collapse and rules to become ineffective.

By then, Primordial World will no longer have peace, only endless battles and divisions.

At the intersection of distant time and space, the changes experienced by a certain world mentioned by Su Yang may emerge.

The feat of Dugu Baitian and Demon Lord working together to fight against the law of heaven may be repeated between Primordial World.

Is it because of this that Dao Ancestor Hongjun has always concealed the true meaning of the Three Corpses method and only passed it on to future generations in the way of Heavenly Dao Sage?

Among Primordial World, there were originally nine Heavenly Dao Sage. However, due to "the 'One' that Escaped" and many causal entanglements, there were only seven seats left in the holy throne.

The seven Primordial Violet Qi correspond to the seven Saint, but among them, only the six who occupy the futon are recognized by Heaven as the chosen ones.

The demise of Ancestor Hong Yun is the cruelest footnote to this rule.

Since then, there are only six Heavenly Dao Sage people left in existence. Nuwa cannot retreat, Two Sages of the West and Dongfang Three Pure Ones contain each other, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun has watched the eternity with the way of heaven, silently guarding the vastness.

Under such a situation, Primordial World everything is under the control of heaven.

But once Three Corpses Sage appears in the world, it means that it has completely jumped out of the rules of heaven. If it could not restrain its behavior at that time, who could predict what great changes Primordial World would usher in?

After listening to Su Yang's words, Empress Nuwa and Sect Master Tongtian suddenly realized that it was not that their talents were insufficient, but that the method they practiced was incomplete.

Without a destined enemy, without a glimmer of hope, even with Heaven-Piercing Cultivation, he would not be able to complete the path to enlightenment by killing himself in three lifetimes.

However, now, the fog has dissipated. Whether it is Nuwa or Tongtian, the idea of abandoning the current fruition status and re-taking the path of enlightenment has ignited in their hearts.

But for the two of them, the opponent they are destined to face is as hazy and elusive.

"Mister Su, if I cut myself off from the Holy Fruit, who will be my destined enemy?"

Sect Master Tongtian stared at Su Yang with burning eyes. Now that he knew where the road ahead lay, he could not hide his eagerness.

Nuwa also breathed out slowly and asked softly, "What senior brother asked is exactly what I suspected. Please also tell me who my destined enemy is?"

Su Yang smiled slightly and said calmly, "The opponents of the two Saint have not yet appeared. But if we really want to take this step, in my opinion, Two Sages of the West, is not the most suitable opponent?"

After the words fell, Nuwa and Tongtian's expressions were slightly condensed, and their hearts were filled with waves.

Finally, he got a glimpse of the path leading to the Holy Land of Three Corpses, but was told that the person blocking the way was none other than Two Sages of the West, a man with strong power.

How to take the first step on this path?

If today's holy fruit is not cut off, it will never be possible to reach the true way of the three corpses;

But once cut off, you will face an almost insurmountable enemy - how to defeat Two Sages of the West and become Three Corpses Sage in the new era?

The power controlled by Saint is far beyond the reach of a Quasi-Saint. Even if Saint is only at the Heavenly Dao level, it would be as easy as lifting a finger to suppress a Quasi-Saint.

When Su Yang said these words, both Sect Master Tongtian and Empress Nuwa remained silent, with a look of sadness appearing between their eyebrows.

Could it be that the path to enlightenment for these three corpses was destined to miss them?

Sect Master Tongtian's heart is hard to calm down. The Three Corpses Sage achieved through three generations of enlightenment is not only superior to the way of heaven Above Sage, but can also break free from Heavenly Dao Restraint and climb to a higher realm. How can you let go of such an opportunity so easily?

But the obstacles before him are extremely real. How to defeat Two Sages of the West?

If he cultivates himself and embarks on the path of Three Corpses Dao Proving, his realm will fall to the quasi-sage level. As a quasi-sage, he will not be able to compete with either of the two Saints in the West.

He knew this very well. Even if he held Four Swords of Zhu Xian in his hand, he could not reverse Qiankun.

Looking at the gloomy expressions of the two of them, Su Yang sighed softly. If he still had a card that could summon a powerful priest, he would be absolutely sure to help one of them complete the path to enlightenment.

Unfortunately, he no longer has such means.

Once Sect Master Tongtian chooses to kill himself, he will have no one to rely on in the future, and he will have to rely on himself to survive the disaster.

Although he still has one million and a half billion points, can he win a priest-level existence with this? No one can guarantee it.

The lottery is just smoke and mirrors. Even if you are willing to gamble all your points in exchange for the love of a Three Corpses Sage, fate may not allow it.
