After experiencing the confusion caused by a mental breakdown, Gu Qingyang first cut himself off from the two extremes of self-consciousness.
Later, under the arrangement of Fan Linlang and Ningtu's will. He was naturally buried in the underworld and underwent his final transformation.
At first, he had a very long dream.
In the dream, he was no longer the demonic bone cultivator who defied heaven and changed his fate, nor was he the sin-blooded emperor who would fight against heaven for absolute freedom.
In the dream, he was just him, just an extremely ordinary him. He is not even a bone cultivator at the Life Bone Realm, he is just a mortal.
Such a dream might be a nightmare for other bone cultivators, but for Gu Qingyang, it was an extremely wonderful dream.
Because in this dream, he no longer needs to fight for survival, and no longer needs to worry about tomorrow.
Gu Qingying is not dead.
At least that's how it was in this dream.
…
However, this "wonderful" dream is actually a dream that truly belongs to his self-consciousness and was derived for self-protection.
In this life, he already had profound attainments in dream cultivation.
Because he could not find his sister's soul after searching the entire reincarnation, his state of mind collapsed, and his body was once taken over by the extreme consciousness derived from it.
His two consciousnesses.
One of them is extremely manic, once this consciousness takes over the body. He will then begin to insult himself crazily and say all sorts of crazy things.
The other one has extreme inferiority complex. When this consciousness takes over the body, everything he says is to refute the previous consciousness.
Two consciousnesses, two extremes.
During the period when Gu Qingyang's self-awareness gave up the dominance of his body, the impact they had on Gu Qingyang was really too great.
But in the final analysis, they were also derived from Gu Qingyang's own true thoughts. Who is he blaming for being unable to find Gu Qingying's soul?
What he blames is himself!
He blames himself... He blames himself for not being strong enough. He hates himself for not having the ability. He feels that this is his original sin.
In fact, his true self-awareness has always been clear. He knew that his attempt had failed.
There were countless moments when he really wished that he could die immediately, so that he could go underground to accompany his sister like countless mortals often said.
But he knew clearly that even if he did this, he would not be able to see his sister.
He clearly knew that if he still looked forward to meeting again.
Then there is only one way before him, and that is to comply with the original choice and go on unswervingly.
Therefore, after experiencing the ultimate madness, he would kill his two extreme consciousnesses, and then enter a sleep like suspended animation.
He has experienced a lot of things during this period of time, but no matter which thing he did, he could not completely collapse.
But this was the only thing that made him collapse.
He was really tired and wanted to sleep.
He is longing for relief, and also longing for more powerful power. He knows that only strong ability is the root of all problems.
Therefore, this seemingly dead sleep became something that was bound to happen. Because only in this way can he get what he wants.
…
"Brother, it's already raining outside. Let's go back. Ying'er is cold and wants to drink the ginger and red jade soup that brother made for Ying'er."
At the very beginning, Gu Qingyang could vaguely realize that he was in his own dream world.
But later, as the illusory Gu Qingying appeared in the dream, as the days in the dream passed day by day.
He began to sink.
He didn't want to think about it.
In this way, a long time passed in the dream world. Until one afternoon, an afternoon that was no different from usual.
Raindrops began to fall in the dark sky, and when the breeze blew on their faces, Gu Qingying said this to Gu Qingyang.
There is nothing wrong with this at first glance.
But after Gu Qingyang heard these words, he froze in place for an instant. At that moment, the dusty memories burst out like a torrent.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
In the dream world, while Gu Qingying was still staring at Gu Qingyang with a puzzled expression, Gu Qingyang's eyes were red and his cheeks were wet with tears.
"Ding--"
In just an instant, the entire dream world was shattered like a mirror. And Gu Qingying, who had been accompanying Gu Qingyang for a long time, also turned into dust and disappeared.
Soon, those things like mirror fragments completely disappeared. Still accompanying Gu Qingyang's self-awareness, only darkness remained.
"sorry."
He stood in the darkness and remained silent for a long time. After a long time, he spoke leisurely and said something that didn't sound like any emotion.
"If you let go of that freedom, I won't be able to protect you. If you hold on to that freedom, I won't be the person you love so much."
"It's a really tough choice."
"But my choice is the latter. As long as you are safe and sound, as long as we can meet again, what can I do if I have completely changed?"
…
Gu Qingyang's voice seemed extremely ethereal, and these few short paragraphs were continuously resounding deep in his inner world.
His consciousness was still the same as before, and he was still standing in the darkness all the time.
Different from before, his consciousness seemed not so depressed.
This is normal, because Gu Qingyang has completely slept through this big dream.
Through this dream, Gu Qingyangming realized a truth. That is a man, he can be sad for a while, but he cannot be sad for the rest of his life.
Being wallowing in sadness for a moment is enough for a man to grow tremendously.
Falling into a lifetime of sorrow is enough to bring a man to complete destruction.
What can I do if I search the entire reincarnation but can't find Gu Qingying? It must be that he is not strong enough! Now he is only in the sixth realm, only the sixth realm.
He just gave up when he got this far, he just wanted to stop after getting to this point. Is he still worthy of being Gu Qingying's brother?
He wants to become stronger!
In the endless darkness, Gu Qingyang's self-consciousness remained silent for a long time. At first he listened to the repeated words in succession.
At some point later, he suddenly looked back and looked at the darkness behind him. In an instant, many figures appeared in the darkness.
If you look carefully, you can find that all of these figures are Gu Qingyang.
Among them, there is him who is full of divine aura like a god, and there is also him who is full of ferocious demonic aura like a great devil.
Then there was the extremely mediocre him in that dream. Also, he is the one who feels sorry for himself and is extremely sad.
…
As time went by, he who appeared deep in his heart was changing crazily, and the number of them also changed from a few at the beginning to hundreds.
Until later, thousands of him appeared in his inner world. And those people were all Gu Qingyang.
The moment he saw so much of himself, Gu Qingyang suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
He suddenly thought that in order to deal with various environments and conditions in this world.
In the past time, he has created countless versions of himself.
And different selves have different functions in different situations.
Among the people he met, some people liked him because of the selves he created.
For example, Narcissus.
The Gu Qingyang that Luo Shuixian liked was that unique genius, the high-spirited young man who said that his life was worthless.
He once thought that he was just a disguise, a false self. But today, he suddenly realized that those people were him.
It was he who created those things with his own hands.
Again, he destroyed those himself with his own hands.
Life...death, if we look at ourselves from the perspective of reincarnation, then this process of constantly creating and killing ourselves is actually reincarnation.
Then, he remembered the days when he was practicing at Shenlu Academy. What impressed him most deeply was his understanding of spiritual practice.
He clearly remembered that in order to calm down his emotional turmoil, he had buried his past self in a different way.
And after doing such a thing, his mood indeed became calmer.
At that time, he only thought that doing so could only be regarded as a means of his cultivation.
Now, he will never think like this again. Because he discovered that the method to advance further in the current realm had been mastered by him a long time ago.
"Bury...your past self."
"The smell of earth, the smell of decay, the ultimate death. Death and life, life and death. Only by experiencing death can we move towards true rebirth."
"Since I have buried my past self countless times, what's the harm in burying it again this time?"
"Tell me carefully——"
"In this life, it seems that I was dug out of the grave by Ying'er, right? Hahahaha, death should also be a kind of transformation."
"Once upon a time, I buried my past and myself. I negotiated with countless selves, and finally killed those selves."
"It is my fault."
"I should face myself, so today is the day for me to bury myself again, and it is also the day for me to sacrifice myself."
"I want to hold a sacrifice for the past me to express my apology. I want to hold a big burial ceremony for the present me."
…
Later, Gu Qingyang's heartfelt voice would sound like ocean waves one after another. And as these voices resounded through his inner world.
In the real world, in the underworld, countless runes began to derive and began to converge towards the soil where ancient Qingyang was buried.
At first, the number of these runes was not large, and even if there was a gathering image, it was not very spectacular.
But later, as Gu Qingyang's understanding continued to deepen, until he decided to hold a big sacrifice for himself, everything changed.
The entire underworld seemed to sense Gu Qingyang's will and was affected by his will.
At the same moment, Gu Qingying, whose eyes were already red, burst into laughter.
Now she shares the same body with Gu Qingyang. That body belonged to Gu Qingyang, and it belonged to her even more.
Therefore, when the body changes under the soil of Hades, no one will know what kind of change it is better than her.
"This is the emperor's will! Sure enough, even if a strong person in the imperial realm is re-cultivated, he is still in the imperial realm. If the emperor's body is not there, it is just a body."
"The emperor's soul is still there, and the emperor's will is still there."
"It was so normal that I would lose to him back then. Maybe, from the moment he achieved that level, everything was destined."
"Sister Ying'er, you can rest assured. Brother Qingyang should have seen through these things and is no longer troubled by pain."
"A man won't shed tears easily."
"It's just not to the point of being sad."
"When Brother Qingyang is sad, he is indeed like a mortal. But once he cheers him up, he is the demon emperor."
"The emperor is supreme, and the emperor is the only one. I really hope to see the day when you two meet again. But everything must start with this transformation."
…
Gu Qingying is still watching here as a soul body, and she has always remained silent.
She just kept giggling, staring wholeheartedly at the soil where Gu Qingyang was buried.
At this time, Fan Linlang also felt Gu Qingyang's will.
She was deeply shocked by Gu Qingyang's Daoist intentions, and it only took a moment to understand why she was defeated in the first place.
At that moment, because she had completely reconciled with one of her obsessions, Fan Linlang also said many words inspired by her feelings.
And just as she said these emotional words, more and more white runes began to emerge, and they rushed towards Gu Qingyang crazily.
Those runes are the runes that carry the original meaning of the Great Path of Reincarnation.
That is the most powerful force in this burial ground, a terrifying force that can truly change destiny.
But now, it was attracted by Gu Qingyang, who had realized the path of reincarnation, and began to gather together to carry out the grand sacrifice for Gu Qingyang.
The great festival of ancient Qingyang.
From a soul level, it means burying the self that just experienced collapse, so that a brand new self can face the future situation.
At the same time, this big sacrifice is also a kind of sacrifice to those who have been buried by him, and it is an expression of apology.
It is to obtain the power accumulated by those people in the past, and to make him who is already invincible in the sixth realm go one step further.
The original intention of the Soul Sacrifice Realm is just to refine the soul.
As the name suggests, it is to sharpen the soul, strengthen and nourish the soul through various means, so that the soul and the body are more consistent.
However, throughout the ages, other bone cultivators who have practiced in this realm have only taken some heavenly materials and earthly treasures related to the soul.
Or, it may be to practice certain secret techniques specially prepared for the Soul Sacrifice Realm, or to use other means to strengthen one's soul.
But Gu Qingyang has cultivated every small realm of the Soul Sacrifice Realm to the extreme perfection.
The first small realm of the Soul Sacrifice Realm is Nian Sheng.
When he first arrived at the Soul Sacrifice Realm in this life, he had been searching hard for the strongest thought, which he wanted to use as the original thought of the Soul Sacrifice Realm.
Later, through a battle in the desert and a battle that changed Fan Linlang's fate against the will of heaven, Gu Qingyangming realized that his one thought was the strongest thought.
No matter what his thought was, this thought was destined to be the strongest thought.
Because he is Gu Qingyang, just as Fan Linlang said just now.
Although he does not have the body of an emperor in this life, his soul and will are things that only a strong person in the imperial realm can possess.
Therefore, his thoughts are the thoughts of the emperor.
Using this as the basis for practicing in the Soul Sacrifice Realm is indeed a waste of resources in a sense. But who told Gu Qingyang to have this strength?
Let’s talk about the smaller realms behind the Soul Sacrifice Realm.
Strengthen the soul, strengthen the soul, become a god, and destroy demons.
As the once strongest man in the wilderness, he knew countless ways to strengthen his soul. The two small realms of gods and demons just mean choices.
He swallowed the Great Evil Stone of Zhiyin and refined the stone.
Therefore, he can nourish the soul with the thought power accumulated by all living beings for a long time.
In this way, strengthening the soul and strength is naturally a matter of course.
As for becoming a god and destroying a demon, many bone cultivators are still able to make the appropriate choice in one go when faced with this choice.
What's more, in this life, he had already made his choice at the beginning of his practice.
Others are either gods or demons. And his choice is that both gods and demons can have it. No matter what the differences between gods and demons are, he just has to shoulder them.
For him in this life, he seemed to have encountered many difficulties on the road to spiritual practice.
But in fact, the biggest difficulty has always originated from his own inner state of mind.
If he has a clear conscience, no regrets, and no regrets... then he can naturally rely on his past life experiences and insights to create an invincible path for this life.
During this period of practice, he was always fighting while practicing and taking advantage of the situation to break through.
Therefore, he appears to be very strong.
But there were some things that he never had time to do. For example, let this body of demonic bones turn into the immortal bones of gods and demons again.
In the past, because of the troubles caused by thirty million strange demons, because of the emergence of the Chaotic Abyss of Demons... Because of all these things, he still put his practice on hold.
But it's different now.
He has experienced great ups and downs in the state of mind, thus breaking through those principles, and has been able to realize reincarnation again through an open-minded state of mind.
This big sacrifice is said to be a sacrifice and a memorial service.
In fact, is it not a transformation?
Bury yourself, let yourself decay, experience a complete death. Waking up again after death is like the withering and flourishing of vegetation.
"Rumble--"
At the moment when Gu Qingyang's whole body gradually turned into dust in the soil of the underworld, thunder actually appeared in the sky above the nameless land.
At the same moment, Gu Qingying and Fan Linlang looked at each other in astonishment. Fan Linlang's eyes revealed a look of disbelief.
"How...how is this possible?"
…
