Within the secret realm of Yunmeng Marsh and Yunmeng Jade Pool.

"Li Xuandu?"

Looking at the blazing Bagua Eight Trigrams Furnace, a very subtle expression appeared on Li Boyang's face.

The Heavenly Eye that Li Jingshu used came from Li Boyang, so it was impossible for him not to see the time distortion scene in Startled Spirit Valley. Moreover, Li Jingshu forcibly pulled Li Xuandu from the future into the present.

That was tantamount to creating ripples at the current point in the Long River of Time, enough to alert all those Dao Assimilator.

After all, just last night saw the Moon Goddess Dao Proving and the Emperor Flow Pulp be born.

Li Boyang believes that he is definitely not the only one paying attention to the anomalies affecting the Long River of Time.

"So, that Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow is related to the moon goddess's Dao Proving?"

Li Boyang muttered to himself, not believing it was merely a coincidence.

Even the fact that Li Xuandu was forcibly pulled from the future into the present is hard to say is merely a coincidence.

Born in the year of the Emperor Flow Pulp's birth, and also related to the essence of the sun and moon -

Unconsciously looking up at the sky, Li Boyang's expression became even more peculiar as he gazed at the full moon transformed from the Three-Legged Golden Toad.

To be honest, Qiwa and Qinghe did ask Li Boyang for help regarding having children.

The problem is that Li Boyang isn't a real Child-Giving Guanyin.

In addition, Qinghe's body is special, making it almost a living Bronze Beast.

Under these circumstances, unless Li Boyang uses his Divine Ability to forcibly give her a child, Qinghe would have no chance of conceiving naturally.

As for the option of forcibly giving a child?

Let's set aside the fact that this couple has adopted so many children and doesn't lack for children.

What they really want is a child of their own, a child with blood ties to both of them.

As for Li Boyang himself, he couldn't get over that mental hurdle.

Helping someone have a child and giving someone a child are two completely different things.

"However, he did give me some inspiration."

"Gathering the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and extracting the brilliance of the sun and moon, is quite a good solution."

With a quick calculation, Li Boyang determined the feasibility of the plan.

The union of Yin and Yang, the combined essence of the sun and moon, nurtures life and vitality, which may indeed enable the Qinghe to conceive naturally.

The Moonlight Essence Qi is easy to obtain, but what about the essence of the sun?

In particular, the Solar Essence Qi that could match that moon goddess is extremely rare throughout this era.

As he pondered this, Li Boyang suddenly thought of the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow —or more precisely, the golden arrowhead on the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow.

When it comes to the Solar Essence Qi, there is probably no essence stronger than the Essence Blood and Solar Essence Qi of the Golden Crow.

"Was that Golden Crow that got shot really lucky?"

When he mentioned the word "luck," Li Boyang paused for a moment.

Now, Li Boyang is basically certain that the Golden Crow that was shot down was the same Golden Crow that fell into the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

His remains were absorbed by a large banyan tree, and he transformed into the Undying Spring God.

Then the Undying Spring God inscription infused itself with the Solar Essence Qi, transforming it into the Sun God who governs spring.

As for that arrow that shot down the Golden Crow?

It then fell into the Southern Sea of Trees, not far from the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, creating the unique phenomenon of the Startled Spirit Valley.

Now, here's the problem.

Is Startled Spirit Valley still the same Startled Spirit Valley as it was originally?

Able to transcend the Long River of Time and connect different timelines.

This is clearly not a capability that Startled Spirit Valley possessed from the beginning.

It was only after Li Boyang Dao Proving and reshaped the Long River of Time with the [Jade Disc of Creation] that Startled Spirit Valley acquired this ability.

"If we take the worst-case scenario, perhaps it's not just the moon goddess attempting to Dao Proving, but also another unidentified Dao Proving One."

Crossing timelines and Dao Proving are not causally related.

It was only because of Li Boyang's intervention that the power ceiling of the entire world has been raised, and everyone can now see the future path of the Great Heavenly Deity.

Therefore, in the future, all Great Heavenly Deity who wish to Dao Proving will, whether actively or passively, interfere with the Long River of Time.

Because the path they have attained symbolizes themselves.

Therefore, in order to extend their lifespan as far as possible into the past and future, even if this Dao Path was originally just Udumbara Flower Dao Path, they will inevitably transform it into a truly eternal concept.

However, Changxi was an exception.

Her choice to prove the path of the Moon Goddess and then interfere with the past and future was solely for the purpose of resurrecting her daughters.

To express his sincerity, Changxi was even willing to give up his authority as the Moon God in exchange for the powerful figures of each era not interfering with him, and to transform the Great Yin Star into the moon that has existed since ancient times.

In this way, even if Changxi eventually succeeds in Dao Proving, he will not be able to become an immortal moon god who exists forever.

This is similar to how Li Boyang, after successfully Dao Proving, voluntarily gave up the [Jade Disc of Creation].

For most Great Heavenly Deity deities, the purpose of Dao Proving is to achieve immortality, extending their lifespan into the past and future of the Long River of Time.

Therefore, after they have successfully Dao Proving, they would absolutely never abandon their Dao Path and allow others to benefit from it.

But for seekers of the Dao like Li Boyang and the Netherworld Lord, their Dao Proving is to Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao, ultimately reaching the other shore.

As long as one understands the essence of "Tao".

The Dao Path is something they don't care about at all.

Even if the path they have attained Udumbara Flower, it does not prevent them from continuing to attain the next path.

This is the divergence in the future direction of the Great Heavenly Deity.

For the vast majority of Great Heavenly Deity, they are expanding their authority based on the existing way, allowing it to cover the past, present, and future, becoming an unchanging concept.

Only a very few Great Heavenly Deity with higher goals would not covet power.

When necessary, one can even abandon one's own Dao Path to pursue the Realm of Transcendence of Refining Emptiness and Uniting with the Dao.

In a sense, Changxi has embarked on a second path by a twist of fate, and is becoming a less than qualified seeker of the Dao.

But this newly emerged Dao Proving One seems to be a traditional Great Heavenly Deity?

He was obsessed with extending his own concepts to every time and space, and for this he was willing to interfere in the death of the Golden Crow and cause trouble right under the nose of Li Boyang, the Dao Ancestor.

[Li Xuandu be a guiding light?]

A thought inadvertently flashed through Li Boyang's mind, and he couldn't help but admire that guy's skill.

This Dao Proving One clearly understood Li Boyang's character.

They also knew that if they wanted to appear in this era, they would inevitably have to confront the other side directly.

But he also knew that in this era of the Dao Ancestor's reappearance, as long as he gained Li Boyang's approval and nod, he would face no further obstacles in this era.

Therefore, he made no attempt to conceal his intention to use Li Xuandu as a guiding light.

I am very likely the future Li Xuandu, and your blood relative. So tell me if you are willing to let me be born!
