When Xuande returned from Underworld, Mount Sumeru was bathing in a golden glaze-colored Buddha's light.
The aftertaste of Great Dao left when Jieyin and Zhunti attained Hunyuan has not yet completely dissipated.
The Sanskrit chanting sound in the mountains interweaves with the Three Immortal Islands innate Spiritual Energy into a distant Sanskrit chant.
Even Northern Mystery, who was sleeping under Four Symbols Banana Tree, seemed to be sleeping a little deeper than usual.
He landed directly in front of Brahma Sound Cave on top of Mount Sumeru.
The three Golden Body statues in the cave are still sitting quietly in Three Talents Formation posture, Jieyin's dark gold, Zhunti's colored glaze, and his own purple gold.
Three rays of Buddha's light complement each other in the dark cave.
Xuande's eyes stayed on his own Purple-Gold Golden Body for a moment.
Golden Body The mixed texture of Sanskrit and Dao Script flowing around the body is still bright.
This Golden Body carries all his causes and effects in Mystic Gate.
Zixiao Palace's insights after hearing the sermon three times, Merit obtained in the name of Mystic Gate when West Earth Vein was repaired, and all ties related to Mystic Gate.
It is not only the proof of delivery, but also the final causal link between him and Primordial Wilderness.
Jieyin and Zhunti are waiting at the top of the mountain.
The dark golden light of Bodhi Tree, Seven-Colored Buddha Light and Nirvana Buddha Light intertwined into a peaceful light curtain behind them.
Seeing Xuande return, Jieyin spoke first, his voice as deep and hoarse as ever.
But after attaining Hunyuan, it became a bit more indescribable and solemn. "Did the trip to fellow Daoist Underworld go smoothly?"
"Everything is fine."
Xuande did not elaborate on what happened to Obsession Corpse, but just nodded calmly.
"Pindao's business inside Primordial Wilderness is over, it's time to go to Chaos."
Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other without asking any questions.
They never ask about things that Xuande doesn't say. This is the tacit understanding between the three of them that has been cultivated through countless Kalpa.
Jieyin took out a dark golden Sarira from his sleeve. Sarira was no bigger than a thumb, and the purest Daoist charm of Nirvana Buddha Light flowed on its surface.
He handed Sarira to Xuande and said in a deep voice, "This is the Sarira that Nirvana Buddha Light condensed when the poor monk attained enlightenment. Although it has no ability to attack, it can protect fellow Daoist Primordial Spirit from being corroded by the evil spirit of Chaos.
Heavenly Dao does not exist among Chaos, but the laws of Great Dao are chaotic and intertwined, and the Primordial Spirit of ordinary monks are like being naked into the ice abyss.
With this Śarīra protection, Primordial Spirit can be protected from loss."
Xuande took over Sarira and started to warm it up. The charm of the Tao of Nirvana contained in it vaguely resonated with his Merit Golden Light.
He did not refuse, but solemnly took Sarira into the depths of Primordial Spirit.
Zhunti also lifted Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree gently, Bodhi Tree sprinkled a piece of Seven-Colored Buddha Light, and formed a more solid Bodhi Leaf Seal mark on Xuande's shoulder.
This mark is more brilliant than the one given by Zhunti when Xuande left Mount Sumeru. A faint shadow of a miniature Bodhi Tree can be seen among the seven colors.
"The dangers in Chaos are unpredictable. The devil's residual thoughts, Innate Baleful Qi whirlpool, Great Dao Law Fragments are all enough to severely damage Sub-Saint.
This seal can withstand a fatal attack, please keep it, fellow Daoist."
Xuande put his hands together again to return the favor.
He said no words of gratitude.
The three of them met Mount Sumeru side by side from the time they first met Zhengdao and established the religion. This friendship can no longer be measured in words.
"Mount Sumeru has a poor monk and Zhunti junior brother, Western Sect is as stable as a rock."
Jieyin's voice returned to its usual deepness, "Fellow Daoist, go to Chaos, prove Hunyuan early, and return Primordial Wilderness early."
"When fellow Daoist comes back, I, Western Sect, will be the three Hunyuan in charge."
Zhunti said in the interface, Seven-Colored Buddha Light was flowing in his eyes, "By then, no force among Primordial Wilderness will be able to underestimate me West."
Xuande nodded and said no more.
He turned around and looked at the Primordial Wilderness sky outside Mount Sumeru. The Divine Sense of the Sub-Saint level spread out, giving a panoramic view of the Primordial Wilderness world.
His eyes swept from Buzhou Mountain to Kunlun Mountain, from Wuzhuang Temple to Thirty-Three Heavens, and finally settled on the endless sky above his head.
The end of the sky is the boundary of Primordial Wilderness, and beyond the boundary is Chaos.
The original void before Pangu Creation of Heaven and Earth, the domain directly controlled by Great Dao.
He took a deep breath, and the golden lotus shadows bloomed layer by layer under his feet, and his figure soared into the sky from Mount Sumeru.
Xuande did not hide his aura.
Sub-Saint level Merit Golden Light turned into a bright golden light pillar around his body, penetrated Mount Sumeru's mountain guarding formation, penetrated Nine Heavens Astral Wind, and rushed straight towards the top of the Primordial Wilderness sky dome.
His speed is extremely fast, Spatial Escape Technique of Sub-Saint level is running to the extreme under his feet, and Law of Space of Primordial Wilderness is useless in front of him.
In just a few breaths, he had passed through the Nine Heavens Astral Wind layer and entered the edge zone of Primordial Wilderness.
The Spiritual Energy here has become extremely thin, and the light of the stars has become dim and distant.
Further up is the junction of Chaos and Primordial Wilderness.
At this moment, Xuande sensed two very familiar breaths sweeping over from the direction of Thirty-Three Heavens.
Those are the two supreme beings Dijun and Taiyi, Divine Sense Demon Clan, the top existences of Late Quasi-Sage and Mid-Quasi-Saint.
Their Divine Sense swept over Xuan Merit Body, with scrutiny, fear, and a hint of indescribable complex emotions.
Xuande did not stop or deliberately avoid it.
He calmly responded to the two visits with Sub-Saint level Divine Sense.
It's not provocation or showing weakness, it's just informing the other party of one's existence and whereabouts.
Among the Sun God Palace, Dijun is sitting on top of Heavenly Emperor's Throne, and Sun Essence Wheel is slowly rotating behind him.
His Divine Sense penetrated the layers of restrictions on Thirty-Three Heavens and stared at the golden light pillar rising from West into the sky.
Taiyi stood beside him, and Chaos Bell made a low hum in his palm.
"Xuande."
Dijun slowly spit out the name, with no emotion or anger in his voice, "Late Quasi-Sage, no, Sub-Saint."
The aura on his body is no longer at the level of Quasi-Saint, but only one step away from Hunyuan.
Western Sect just stood up, Jieyin and Zhunti both realized Hunyuan, and he immediately flew to the sky.
Second brother, what do you think he is going to do?"
Taiyi was silent for a moment, and the buzzing of Chaos Bell gradually subsided.
He looked at the golden beam of light flying higher and higher, and said slowly, "Chaos, he is going to Chaos to attain enlightenment.
He wants to bypass the suppression of Heavenly Dao and look for opportunities in Chaos."
Dijun's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the throne, making a dull sound.
His eyes never left the golden beam of light. "Send the order, Heavenly Court ministries are not to stop him. Let him go."
Taiyi nodded slightly, Chaos Bell shook slightly, and an invisible sound wave spread throughout Thirty-Three Heavens.
Great Array of the Stars of Demon Clan Heavenly Court had already sensed that a strong person was approaching the border of Primordial Wilderness, and was about to automatically activate the defensive restrictions, but under the sound of the bell of Taiyi, all the restrictions subsided at the same time.
Ten Great Demon Marshals each restrained his troops, and hundreds of millions of Demon Soldier Demon General watched the golden light beam passing by the edge of Heavenly Court, without a single soldier taking action to stop it.
Dijun and Taiyi are not stupid.
Xuande went to Chaos to preach, and the advantages outweighed the disadvantages for the Demon Clan.
If he successfully attains Hunyuan, Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal will be added to Primordial Wilderness, and the strength of the Western Sect will certainly become stronger.
However, if a Hunyuan-level person stays in Chaos, the impact on the internal structure of Primordial Wilderness will be much smaller than if he stays in Primordial Wilderness.
If he fails, it will not be worth Demon Clan spending a single soldier on him.
What's more, although Xuande has a close relationship with the Witch Clan, there is no direct enmity between Xuande and Demon Clan.
At the moment when Laozi is enlightened and Western Sect is established, what Demon Clan needs most is not to make enemies everywhere, but to concentrate on dealing with the Primordial Violet Qi in the hands of Hong Yun.
The golden light beam continued to climb upwards, and soon penetrated the airspace where Heavenly Court was located, and entered the outermost layer of Primordial Wilderness.
The Law of Space here has begun to become unstable, and the Spiritual Energy has almost completely disappeared, replaced by a subtle atmosphere of Chaos intertwined with order.
Primordial Wilderness's border is right in front of you.
It was an invisible but real barrier, the edge of the world cut out from Chaos at Pangu Creation of Heaven and Earth.
Within the barrier is Primordial Wilderness, who is controlled by Heavenly Dao, and outside the barrier is Chaos, who is directly controlled by Great Dao.
Xuande stopped for a moment in front of the barrier.
He looked back at the Primordial Wilderness land.
The Heavenly Pillar of Buzhou Mountain is still standing tall, the Three Pure Ones fairy light of Kunlun Mountain is still dazzling, and the Buddha light of Western Mount Sumeru is still peaceful and peaceful.
This world carries all his memories from Form Transformation to the present, from Twelve-Petal Merit Golden Lotus Form Transformation to meeting Jieyin and Zhunti.
From restoring West Earth Vein to listening to the Zixiao Palace, from accepting disciples Six Ears Kong Xuan to Underworld working side by side with Houtu, from founding Western Sect to now about to become Chaos.
Countless Kalpa years flashed by in his Sea of Consciousness.
Then he turned around and stepped into Chaos.
Primordial Wilderness's barrier closed silently behind him.
From this moment on, the power of Heavenly Dao can no longer touch him.
But at the same time, the shelter of Primordial Wilderness heaven and earth can no longer cover him.
Among Chaos, only the Great Dao rule operates directly without the buffering and adjustment of Heavenly Dao.
The laws here are more primitive, purer, and more dangerous.
Chaos The void is boundless.
There is no up, down, left, right, far or near, there is just an endless gray mist.
Chaos Qi surges like a tide here, sometimes condensing into a whirlpool, and sometimes turning into turbulence.
Occasionally, you can see some broken Great Dao Law Fragments floating in the void, emitting various colors of light.
Those are the remains of the Chaos law that was cut off when Pangu opened the sky. Each fragment contains no less power than Innate Spiritual Treasure, but it is also extremely dangerous.
If you are not careful, you may be swallowed by the remaining will in Law Fragments.
Xuande As soon as he stepped into Chaos, he felt an invisible pressure coming from all directions.
This is not suppression by Heavenly Dao, but pressure from the rules of Chaos itself.
There is no protection from Law of Space in Chaos, no nourishment from Spiritual Energy, only the direct crushing of the original Chaos Qi and Great Dao laws.
If an ordinary Daluo Golden Immortal enters this place, within a few days it will be eroded by Chaos Qi, Primordial Spirit will be worn out, and Physical Body will eventually turn into a wisp of residue in Chaos.
But Xuande is Sub-Saint, and his Physical Body and Primordial Spirit have exceeded the limit of Quasi-Saint.
In addition, the Nirvana Śarīra gifted by Jieyin protects Primordial Spirit, and the Bodhi Leaf Seal gifted by Zhunti remembers Physical Body. The erosion of Chaos Qi does not constitute a real threat to him for the time being.
He stood in the Chaos void, closed his eyes, and spread out Divine Sense.
Sub-Saint level Divine Sense spreads much slower in Chaos than in Primordial Wilderness.
There is no Law of Space as a medium in Chaos, and Divine Sense can only be transmitted in the most primitive way.
But even so, he still sensed a familiar direction after a moment.
That is the breath of the Wa Huang Palace.
After Nuwa became a saint, Dao Ancestor Hongjun summoned her to go to Chaos to open up Wa Huang Palace.
The location of the Wa Huang Palace is not secret.
It takes the Sage power of Nuwa as its coordinate, and exudes a gentle breath of creation to the entire Chaos.
Anyone who enters Chaos can sense its location as long as they have sufficient cultivation.
Xuande uses the cultivation base of Sub-Saint to run Spatial Escape Technique, and steps out of a looming golden passage in Chaos.
The distance from the Primordial Wilderness boundary to the Wa Huang Palace has no exact measurement in Chaos.
The space in Chaos is distorted and time is chaotic.
Xuande flew for an unknown amount of time. It might have been an hour or a few days, but the outline of the Wa Huang Palace finally gradually emerged in the fog of Chaos.
Xuande stopped outside the protective restriction, used his magic power to form a greeting card, and gently sent it into the light curtain.
Within a moment, the protective restriction automatically opened a gap, and the voice of Nuwa came from the palace, gentle and a bit joyful:
"Daoist Xuande? Please come in."
Xuande passed through the forbidden gap and landed on the square in front of the Wa Huang Palace.
The environment here is completely different from Chaos.
Creation Power fills every inch of space, warm and peaceful, making people almost forget that they are in the depths of Chaos.
Nuwa walked out of the palace slowly. She was wearing a simple and elegant blue robe, her long hair was tied up casually with a jade hairpin, and she did not exude any Sage power. She looked like an ordinary Daoist Sect female cultivator.
But Xuande knows that this is just because she has restrained Sage's power extremely well.
Nuwa, who created people in Primordial Wilderness to attain enlightenment, is now one of the top beings in Primordial Wilderness.
"I have seen Fellow Daoist Nuwa." Xuande put his hands together and saluted with Buddhist School etiquette.
His friendship with Nuwa can be traced back to the first time they met Buzhou Mountain.
This friendship has gone through countless Kalpas, and it is no longer an ordinary friendship between Daoist friends.
Nuwa smiled slightly and raised his hand to help, "Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be polite.
At that time, under Mount Sumeru, Daoist friend said something to the younger sister, and the younger sister was able to create Human Race, attain enlightenment and become a saint.
My little sister will always remember this kindness. Come, come into the palace and talk."
The main hall of the Wa Palace is extremely spacious, with countless murals embodying the power of creation on its four walls.
There is the evolution of Human Race from ignorance to civilization, and there is the figure of Fuxi Professor Bagua.
There are scenes of Xuande sending disciples to teach writing and medical skills, and there are also magnificent scenes of Nuwa himself refining Nine Heavens Breath Soil with Universe Cauldron to create humans.
These murals are not static, but are constantly changing, like living scrolls.
There is a jade table in the center of the hall. On the table are several spiritual fruits and a pot of tea. The fragrance of tea is lingering and blends well with Creation Power.
Nuwa asked Xuande to sit down opposite the jade table and personally poured him a cup of tea.
Her eyes swept over Xuan Merit Body. As Great Dao Sage, she could naturally tell Xuande's cultivation status at a glance.
"Sub-Saint is only one line away from Hunyuan. Daoist friends come to Chaos to prove the Tao."
It's not a question, it's a statement.
Xuande nodded and briefly described the causes and consequences of the Western Sect's founding, Jieyin and Zhunti's enlightenment to Hunyuan, his own cultivation stagnating at Sub-Saint, and Heavenly Dao's suppression and failure to break through within Primordial Wilderness.
He spoke plainly, neither boasting about the Western Sect's achievements nor complaining about Heavenly Dao's suppression, he was just stating a fact.
Nuwa After listening, she was silent for a moment. She picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and then slowly spoke:
"Fellow Daoist's inference is correct. Inside Primordial Wilderness, it is impossible for the sixth Hunyuan to be born in a short time.
It's not that fellow Daoist can't do it, it's that Heavenly Dao can't bear it.
Five Hunyuan and above exist simultaneously in the Primordial Wilderness world, and the load of the Heavenly Dao law is approaching its limit.
If fellow Daoists want to break through inside Primordial Wilderness, Heavenly Dao will definitely obstruct it in various ways. Instead of taking action directly, they will tighten all the latches that can be tightened at the legal level.
This is why I was summoned by Dao Ancestor to Chaos after I became enlightened.
Nominally, it is asking me to develop Wa Huang Palace, but in fact, it is also a pressure to make Primordial Wilderness one less Sage."
"What fellow Daoist said is completely consistent with what Pindao perceives."
Xuande said, "I came to Chaos to bypass Heavenly Dao's supervision and complete the enlightenment in Chaos."
"How do fellow Daoists plan to attain enlightenment?"
Nuwa asked, with real concern in his tone, "Although there is no Heavenly Dao suppression in Chaos, there is no Merit accumulation and opportunity in Primordial Wilderness.
If fellow Daoists want to break through from Sub-Saint to Hunyuan in Chaos, they need extremely huge Origin Essence power as an introduction."
Xuande is not hiding anything.
Nuwa is one of his most trusted Sage, and there is nothing to hide about the matter of enlightenment.
He told everything about his plans.
With the Return to Origin power of Creation Cauldron, Twelve-Petal World-Purifying White Lotus and Twelve-Petal Destruction Black Lotus are simultaneously Return to Origin, extracting the purest purification Origin Essence and destruction Origin Essence and integrating them into themselves.
His main body is Twelve-Petal Merit Golden Lotus Form Transformation. If he can absorb Origin Essence and Three Lotuses United from World-Purifying White Lotus and Destruction Black Lotus, he can impact Hunyuan in Chaos.
Nuwa After listening, a hint of understanding flashed in those clear eyes.
She is Sage of Creation Dao, and she understands the methods of fusion of Return to Origin and Origin Essence better than anyone else.
She thought about it briefly and understood the complete idea of Xuande.
Merit Golden Lotus is the lotus of Merit, World-Purifying White Lotus is the lotus of purification, and Destruction Black Lotus is the lotus of destruction.
The three Origin Essence represent three different Great Dao directions. Placing it alone on any lotus platform is not enough to prove Hunyuan.
But if Three Lotuses United and Merit are the foundation, purification is the means, and destruction is the strength, and the three complement each other, they are enough to form a complete Great Dao.
This Great Dao does not belong to Heavenly Dao, nor does it belong to any existing Great Dao Sage system, it only belongs to Xuande itself.
"Three Lotuses United."
Nuwa gently repeated these four words, with a flash of approval in his eyes, "Merit, purify, destroy."
The three kinds of Origin Essence are combined into one. If you Daoist friends can really succeed, what you will achieve will be your own Hunyuan Dao Fruit.
This road is different from the Three Corpses Unite road of Jieyin and Zhunti, different from Golden Core Great Dao of Laozi, and different from my Creation Dao.
This is a new path."
She paused and her tone became a little more solemn. "But fellow Daoists need to know that there is a price for attaining enlightenment in Chaos. After attaining enlightenment, you can no longer enter Primordial Wilderness."
Xuande frowned slightly. "What fellow Daoist means is..."
"That was the case with Yang Mei back then."
Nuwa's voice had an extra layer of meaning, "Yang Mei ancestor attained Hunyuan in Chaos, but after his attainment he found that the cause and effect between himself and Primordial Wilderness had been completely severed by Chaos.
Heavenly Dao no longer recognizes his existence as Primordial Wilderness. If he forcibly enters Primordial Wilderness, he will be ostracized by Heavenly Dao.
Just like the foreign Chaos Demon Gods, it is attacked by the Heavenly Dao law.
So he can only stay in Chaos and can never return to Primordial Wilderness.
If fellow Daoists attain enlightenment in Chaos, they will also face this problem.
At the moment of enlightenment, the Great Dao law in Chaos will reshuffle all the cause and effect of fellow Daoists, and the cause and effect connection with Primordial Wilderness will most likely be completely severed."
Xuande was silent for a moment. Then he raised his head, his eyes calm and determined. "I have a backup plan."
He told the story about Golden Body.
Mount Sumeru The purple-gold Golden Body Dharma image on top of Brahma Sound Cave carries all the cause and effect he has in Mystic Gate.
Zixiao Palace's enlightenment after listening to the sermon, Merit who restored West Earth Vein, and all ties with Primordial Wilderness heaven and earth. As long as that Golden Body is still there, the cause and effect between him and Primordial Wilderness has not been completely severed.
Golden Body is his token and certificate of returning to Primordial Wilderness.
Entering the Chaos path as Sub-Saint, of course, may be cut off Karmic Thread by the Chaos law.
But that Golden Body is his anchor within Primordial Wilderness, the only link between him and Primordial Wilderness, and the key to whether he can return to Primordial Wilderness in the future.
"Good." A hint of understanding flashed in Nuwa's eyes, and then a hint of admiration flashed.
She is Great Dao Sage, so she can naturally understand the Gao Ming aspect of Xuande.
This is almost the ultimate application of Cause and Effect Dao.
Others cut off the cause and effect, but he kept the cause and effect.
By storing the causal link with Primordial Wilderness in Golden Body, the body can safely attain enlightenment in Chaos without worrying about being rejected by Primordial Wilderness Heavenly Dao.
