The Heavenly Book's true secret, a Dharma-ending Primordial World? This premise was a bit far-fetched
Looking at the four volumes of Heavenly Book that Biyao had taken out, Ling Yi was deeply moved.
Ling Yi knew exactly where the four volumes of the Heavenly Book were.
Even with the Weapon Art, Ling Yi could imagine how many Combat and dangers Biyao and the others had gone through.
Putting aside other matters, the Tianyin Temple, which is not much weaker than the Qingyun Sect, is not so easy to conquer.
"You guys are really..." Ling Yi hugged Biyao in his arms, "Don't do such dangerous things again. What's the point of me destroying this world if something happens to you?"
"It's all thanks to Aunt You; I didn't contribute much."
Ling Yi nodded to You Ji and said earnestly, "Thank you!"
"It's alright!" You Ji waved her hand dismissively.
"Now that all five volumes of this Heavenly Book are complete, I wonder what secrets they hold," Biyao asked curiously.
"Then today, let's uncover his secret."
Ling Yi took out all five volumes of the Heavenly Book Heavenly Book. As they appeared simultaneously, the mysterious Dao Rhyme emanating from the Heavenly Book scrolls seemed to resonate with each other, emitting a soft, pale golden light and slowly suspending in the air.
But that was all; apart from that, nothing else Changes after everyone waited for a long time.
Ling Yi frowned. His laws were currently sealed, preventing him from using their power; otherwise, he could have broken through them in no time.
Ling Yi also sensed a Primordial World Aura similar to that of the Chinese Paladin 1 from these five volumes of Heavenly Book.
Each volume of the Heavenly Book possesses a different Dao Rhyme, and all five Heavenly Book carry a common will, though they are divided into five and sealed within these five Heavenly Book.
Only by uniting these scattered wills into one might we be able to discover the true secret of the Heavenly Book.
In other words, Ling Yi needs to destroy these five volumes of Heavenly Book in order to release their wills and for these five wills to Fusion together.
However, before destroying it, one needs to study the five volumes of the Heavenly Book.
Ling Yi sat cross-legged in the air, positioned in the middle of the five volumes of the Heavenly Book, and began to close his eyes and comprehend them.
Seeing this, the others tacitly began to protect Ling Yi.
Just then, a slightly disheveled Daoxuan landed from the sky. Looking at Ling Yi, who was surrounded by the five volumes of Heavenly Book, Daoxuan's face showed a bitter smile, and... gratitude.
But seeing everyone looking at him warily, Daoxuan sighed, "You don't need to be like this. Today's events are entirely my fault. I finally understand why my the Final Master repeatedly warned us not to use the Zhu Xian Sword lightly."
"The malevolent energy contained within it can unknowingly affect one's mind and distort one's true nature. Today, the breaking of the Zhu Xian Sword has ironically freed me from darkness and allowed me to fully regain my clarity. Otherwise, one day I would surely have fallen into demonic possession, and the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Tian Buyi still trusted Daoxuan's words, but remained vigilant.
He asked, "Senior brother, do you know the origin of this Heavenly Book?"
Daoxuan shook his head and said, "Like you, I've only heard about it, but I've never seen it."
Before Daoxuan, all the successive leaders of the Qingyun Sect were actually aware of the existence of the Heavenly Book.
Only the sect leader knows the secret of the Heavenly Book within the Zhu Xian Sword.
However, the previous sect leader fell into demonic possession due to overuse of the Zhu Xian Sword during the war between good and evil, and was killed by Wan Jianyi. This secret was not passed down in time.
Therefore, Daoxuan only knew about the Illusory Moon Cave and that there was a secret within the Zhu Xian Sword, but he didn't know what it was.
This is why Daoxuan usually studies the Zhu Xian Sword.
He glanced at Biyao and You Ji and said, "I've heard that the Ghost King obtained a Heavenly Book, which greatly increased his strength. I wonder if it's true!"
You Ji did not answer, but instead asked, " Daoxuan Dao Xuan, do you know anyone named Zhou Yixian?"
"You know this person?"
According to Ling Yi, Zhou Yixian is the thirteenth-generation disciple of Qingyunzi, the founder of the Qingyun Sect.
"The thirteenth generation disciple of the patriarch?" Daoxuan frowned.
Seeing Daoxuan's reaction, Su Ru asked, "Senior Brother, have you seen this person before?"
"We met once, probably more than a hundred years ago. I encountered him by chance in the Boundless Sea. His cultivation was extremely low, and he made a living by swindling and cheating. However, because he saw through my cultivation at a glance, he left a deep impression on me."
After Daoxuan finished speaking, he looked at You Ji and asked, "Is this person related to the Heavenly Book?"
"Judging from what Ling Yi said, Zhou Yixian's identity is probably not simple."
" Ling Yi learned part of the Heavenly Book's contents from Zhou Yixian, and based on his own speculations, he made some deductions about the Heavenly Book."
Ling Yi speculated that the world of cultivation was divided into three periods, with the appearance of the Heavenly Book as the dividing line.
" Ling Yi called the first period the Wilderness Period. At that time, there were many people with profound cultivation. Immortals and mortals coexisted. A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality could overcome heavenly tribulations and become immortals. From then on, they coexisted with heaven and earth, immortal and indestructible."
Back in Jing City, Ling Yi had indeed mentioned these things to them out of Bored.
"In the late stages of the barbaric era, something major must have happened in the Immortal Cultivation Realm —perhaps a war between immortals and mortals, a war between immortals themselves, or something deliberately orchestrated by some being—ultimately causing the demise of all Immortal Cultivation Realm. This world was also sealed away, preventing cultivators from ever reaching the Tribulation Transcendence Realm again, thus severing the path to immortality."
"The period that followed, which Ling Yi called the transitional period, was the time between the end of the barbaric period and the appearance of the Heavenly Book."
"Because most cultivation lineages in the Immortal Cultivation Realm have been severed, cultivation techniques are scarce and cultivation is difficult. The new generation of cultivators generally have low cultivation levels. Senior Qingyunzi was a cultivator from this period."
"About a thousand years ago, the Heavenly Book appeared. It is said that at that time, the world changed color, the sun was not seen for half a month, and Daodao -red cracks appeared in the sky. All cultivators felt the mournful cry of heaven and earth."
"Since the appearance of the Heavenly Book, this is the third period, which Ling Yi calls the Reincarnation Period. As for why it's called that, Ling Yi didn't explain."
" Reincarnation, Reincarnation, does it refer to the war between good and evil?" Daoxuan murmured.
"Whether it is or not, Ling Yi must have his reasons. Let's wait until Ling Yi wakes up and ask him directly," You Ji said.
At this moment, everyone's Light Lock to Ling Yi.
At this moment, Ling Yi's comprehension of the five volumes of the Heavenly Book was nearing completion, and he had gained a clearer understanding of the Dao Rhyme contained within Heavenly Book.
The first volume of Heavenly Destiny, the Dao Rhyme of Power; the second volume, the Dao Rhyme of Creation; the third volume, the Dao Rhyme of Karma; the fourth volume, the Dao Rhyme of Reincarnation; and the fifth volume, the Dao Rhyme of Destruction.
It is the Dao Rhyme, not a law. The Dao Rhyme is enlightenment, a result, and is very general.
Rules are details, principles, and more specific.
It's like in elementary school you learn about thermal expansion and contraction, and in middle school you learn why thermal expansion and contraction happen—one is the result, the other is the principle.
For Ling Yi, comprehending these Dao Rhyme was extremely simple.
As Ling Yi gained enlightenment, his Aura became the Ethereal. Although Ling Yi was right there, everyone felt that Ling Yi was gradually becoming unreachable.
After a long while, Ling Yi opened his eyes and raised his finger to tap five times.
The five Heavenly Book scrolls shattered one after another, leaving only five clusters of mysterious light.
Under the tense gaze of everyone, the five orbs of mysterious light automatically rose into the air and converged together at a height of 100 meters above the ground.
Everyone had the illusion that the five clusters of mysterious light that had merged into one seemed to have come alive.
The next moment, the ball of light transformed into a semi-transparent human figure.
The man was dressed in coarse linen clothes, his face was withered, and his eyes, which emitted a faint, eerie light, went from blank to clear-headed, and then from clear-headed to twisted and angry.
"In the end, did we still fail? Heavenly Dao, why are you so ruthless? The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and you have even erased our only chance."
"I am not reconciled..."
The old man roared, then transformed back into a ball of mysterious light, but completely lost its Spiritual Animation and became Death Qi.
"How could it be him? What exactly happened in the Primordial World?"
Ling Yi grasped the ball of mysterious light in his hand, examined it for a moment, and then slapped it directly into his forehead.
This is a very fragmented and chaotic memory, fragmented, with many missing parts, and very disjointed.
Even so, Ling Yi managed to glean a general idea from these memories.
The story begins with the last Calamity of the primordial Primordial World.
Since its inception, the Primordial World has experienced the Heaven-Opening Calamity, the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity, the Witch-Demon Calamity and Demon, the Investiture of the Gods Calamity, and the Journey to the West Calamity.
After the Journey to the West Calamity, there came the Demon-Buddha Calamity, and the Samsara Calamity, but few people know about the last Calamity.
The Earthly Dao Calamity, or the Earth Vein Calamity.
The Heaven-Opening Calamity: Pangu died; the Great Dragon-Phoenix Calamity: the Three Qilin Clans perished; the Witch-Demon Calamity of Witch and Demon: the two races of Witch and Demon withdrew from the Primordial World; the Investiture of the Gods Calamity of the Gods: the Sage were sealed in Chaos; the Great Journey to the West Calamity: seemingly a great flourishing of Buddhist School, but in reality, it destroyed the Karmic Luck of heaven and earth.
After the Journey to the West Calamity, the Demon Buddha was born, the Buddha went into Spirit Mountain Ling, and Buddhist School completely declined.
The Samsara Calamity is aimed at the Underworld.
Samsara Calamity, the Underworld was sealed off, leaving the souls of the dead with nowhere to go but to linger in the mortal realm. This caused the collapse of order in the Mortal Realm, with demons running rampant and countless lives lost.
The last major Earth Vein Calamity occurred during the Ming Dynasty. In order to completely eradicate the source of all demons in the world, Liu Bowen set up Formation to sever the earth's veins.
Thus, the Primordial World officially entered the Dharma-ending Age.
Without Spiritual Qi, Karmic Luck, and faith, the Sage sealed in Chaos gradually lost their source of power and their cultivation regressed.
When the end times truly arrived, the once Primordial World Sage found themselves in a life-or-death Extremis.
In their quest for a glimmer of hope, the saints joined forces to create a new world, which they then concealed deep within the Chaos.
And this world is the Jade Dynasty World.
Each of the saints separated a portion of their Primordial Spirit to Reincarnation in the Jade Dynasty World, hoping to preserve a last glimmer of hope for their survival...
The subsequent memories became even more chaotic.
The Jade Dynasty World was originally divided into two realms: the Mortal World Realm and the Immortal Realm. According to normal development, the Jade Dynasty World had the potential to advance.
But at some point, the immortals and mortals began to wage endless war, resulting in the deaths of countless beings, much like a cataclysmic Calamity.
As for why the Immortal Realm completely severed ties with the Mortal Realm, this memory does not contain detailed information...
After browsing through these memories, Ling Yi felt... it was a bit far-fetched.
But inexplicably, it feels quite reasonable, and I can't find any major flaws.
But it just feels ridiculous. Even linking the Jade Dynasty World with Perfect World and Shrouding the Heavens World would be easier to accept than this setting.
Ling Yi Ling Yi traveled through many novel worlds, and this was the only one that he felt was a bit far-fetched by the novel's author.
