The Dao of Primordial Beginning, the Creation of Heaven and Earth

"Do you think my guess is right? Outer Dao always seeks shortcuts?"

Faced with Li Boyang's resolute question, Boshun remained silent.

Because He never expected that the truth, which even Zhuang Zhou himself hadn't seen through, would be revealed by Li Boyang in a single sentence.

How did you determine that?

Without refuting Li Boyang's guess, Boshun finally spoke after a long silence.

Boshun thought to himself that his disguise was good enough.

Most of the time, he even thought he was Zhuang Zhou's Heart Demon.

No, to be more precise, Boshun is no longer sure if he is still the same person he once was.

After all, Zhuang Zhou's "method of Attaining the Dao in Dreams" was too bizarre; Boshun's memories had been erased countless times.

Furthermore, given the other party's continuous Dao Proving of enlightenment across time and space, the reason why Boshun has not forgotten his origin is simply because Zhuang Zhou has not realized that this thing is not his own Heart Demon.

"It's very simple; Heart Demon, in the end, are evil thoughts that originate from the body itself."

"If the physical body doesn't know something, the Heart Demon certainly won't know either; this is a perfectly logical deduction."

"But you know things that even the original body doesn't know, which makes it all the more strange."

Li Boyang did not deny the Heavenly Demon Demon's potential for growth, but no matter how much it grew, it still had to be based on facts.

Zhuang Zhou believed that the difference between himself and Boshun lay only in the distinction between "Great Freedom" and "Freedom Through Others' Transformations."

This was a difference in ideology, but it was enough for Li Boyang to see through the essence of Boshun.

"When I was driving the evolution of the Great Sovereign Heaven, I perceived a Dao different from that of Zhuang Zhou— "

"In other words, what you call ' Freedom Through Others' Transformations' is not derived from Zhuang Zhou's Great Freedom at all, but rather an independent and systematic concept."

How can an individual derived from the same Dao Proving One possess two "Dao Path"?

"Therefore, you and Zhuang Zhou are not simply two paths of practice based on the same idea, but rather two completely different, even diametrically opposed, ideas."

As he said this, Li Boyang glanced around, his gaze lingering on the trembling demon kings.

The Great Sovereign Heaven today contains the "Tao" of three Dao Proving One.

Zhuang Zhou's "Dao of Carefree Wandering and Unfettered Wandering," Boshun's "Dao of the Heavenly Demon Freedom Through Others' Transformations other-transformation freedom, and Li Boyang's more inclusive " Dao of Primordial Beginning."

What is "Primordial Beginning"?

Without birth or death, without form or image, this is called "the beginning of the Tao".

Theoretically speaking, the Primordial Beginning is not a concrete existence, but a path that encompasses everything and accommodates all beings.

It symbolizes the initial state of the universe, the ultimate source of all things.

Therefore, the Demon of Primordial Beginning that Li Boyang transformed into was fully capable of being compatible with both the "Dao of Carefree Wandering" and the "Dao of the Heavenly Demon."

In fact, this is also the source of Li Boyang's confidence in opening up a third world and evolving the heavens.

Even if you guess right, so what?

Silently gazing at the Primordial Beginning Heavenly Demon opposite him, Boshun's voice remained calm and unwavering.

"I have long since Heaven of Sovereignty over Others' Transformations Realm; you cannot kill me."

"Unless you completely extinguish the desires of all living beings and destroy the Sea of Alaya Consciousness, which is composed of the subconsciousness of all souls—."

Boshun was certain that Li Boyang, as the Dao Ancestor, could not possibly do such a thing, so he appeared fearless.

"You're right, I couldn't possibly destroy the subconscious connection of all living beings just to kill you."

Nodding calmly, the Primordial Beginning Heavenly Demon chuckled in a rather wicked tone.

"But what do you think I've been doing all this time? Just to force you to show yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Boshun's pupils dilated sharply, and a sense of foreboding arose in his heart.

Isn't that so?

Boshun knew that Li Boyang was pushing the Great Sovereign Heaven to a higher level.

However, as one of the cornerstones of the Great Sovereign Heaven, the essence of the "Dao of the Heavenly Demon" is Boshun.

In Boshun's view, Li Boyang's actions were at most forcing him to reveal himself, rather than eradicating the "Dao of the Heavenly Demon" from the Great Sovereign Heaven.

According to Boshun's deduction, the worst outcome would be that he would be sealed away by Li Boyang.

In contrast, he himself was able to take the "Dao of Primordial Beginning" deduced by Li Boyang to a further step and completely perfect the "Dao of the Heavenly Demon".

Although this method of Dao Proving one's faith through the hands of others is somewhat opportunistic.

But that's how Boshun got through it all, so naturally he had no psychological burden whatsoever.

As long as I don't die, successfully Dao Proving is the greatest achievement.

Moreover, being sealed by Li Boyang is only the worst-case scenario.

Boshun did not believe that the actual situation would actually develop in the worst possible way.

After all, this Dao Ancestor never hindered anyone from Dao Proving, a fact that has been verified by later generations.

Unfortunately, what Boshun did not expect was that Li Boyang's deduction of Great Sovereign Heaven was far beyond what could be summarized as a "higher level".

"You underestimate my abilities, and overestimate your own importance."

With a faint smile, Li Boyang activated the Eight Trigrams Furnace. His words made Boju's heart skip a beat.

Because He suddenly realized that the fact that the Dao Ancestor never hindered anyone from attaining Dao Proving did not mean that the other person was a person without temper.

On the contrary, both various myths and legends, as well as his own personal experiences during this period, all proved this to Boshun.

"Since you come from the future, you should know about the Six Paths of Reincarnation!"

Li Boyang wasn't asking Boshun a question; he was simply explaining his philosophy and what he was going to do next.

"I don't know what the Six Paths of Reincarnation was like in your time."

"But the cycle of Six Paths of Reincarnation in this era is not yet perfect; this is something everyone knows."

"Especially after the birth of the Great Sovereign Heaven, both naturally conceived demon kings and future cultivators who walk the Demon Path path will have the ability to exploit the loopholes in the Six Paths of Reincarnation of Reincarnation."

"You know, I don't like people taking advantage of loopholes, especially loopholes that affect the balance between life and death." Li Boyang paused slightly at this point.

"If a vulnerability is discovered, it must be patched; that's my consistent practice."

"Since this Great Sovereign Heaven can exploit loopholes in the Six Paths system, helping you demon kings escape life and death and freely reincarnate..."

"That would naturally perfect the mechanism of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and even initiate the evolution of all the heavens and myriad worlds."

"The Dao of Primordial Beginning begins with the Opening Heaven and Earth!"

Realizing the danger once again, Boshun inside the Eight Trigrams Furnace immediately began to struggle.

Then, the demon kings born from Boshun immediately became ferocious, as if endless power was pouring into their bodies from all directions.

The Boshun trapped in the Eight Trigrams Furnace was merely an incarnation of him.

Such incarnations can be found everywhere in the Great Sovereign Heaven; whether as powerful as a demon king or as weak as a nightmare, they could all be incarnations of Boshun.

This is also the Boshun's confidence in not fearing Li Boyang: Freedom Through Others' Transformations, and all beings are demons.

As Boshun previously stated, unless Li Boyang is willing to destroy the entire Sea of Alaya Consciousness, Boshun will exist in the dreams of all living beings, immortal and indestructible.
