It is precisely because of this that even though Zhizu is the ancient ancestor of Dahuang Tianjiang, there are only a few disciples of Dahuang Tianjiang who have seen her. Only the powerful ancestors of the Great Emperor know about this matter.
Moreover, Zhizu lived in Shushi Sect and was protected by Emperor Kumu. Her return to innocence went smoothly without any mistakes. This is why the Great Wilderness Yuanzu chose Emperor Kumu as the guardian of the wise.
"You have done your duty." Li Qiye looked at Zhizu, nodded gently, and said: "She has returned to her innocence and has grown up very well, without any accidents."
"The master has ordered me to do my best," Emperor Kumu said, "I dare not make any mistakes."
Kumu said so, and she did indeed do so. Under her protection, Zhizu's return to innocence was indeed very smooth. Moreover, along the way, Zhizu was also a happy little girl.
Li Qiye looked at Emperor Kumu up and down and said calmly: "You have been following me for so long, but you haven't made a breakthrough yet."
When Li Qiye said this, Emperor Kumu couldn't help but feel ashamed. He lowered his head and said, "It's not the Lord's fault, but the disciple's stupidity."
Li Qiye said calmly: "Where are you stupid? I think the Dao is solid and solid. Every stage of the Dao is very solid and can be broken through."
"Is this true?" Emperor Kumu was immediately overjoyed when he heard such words, but he couldn't help but hesitate.
Emperor Kumu can be said to be the maid who has followed the Great Desolate Yuanzu for a long, long time. There are even rumors that she is the person who has followed the Great Desolate Yuanzu for the longest time, longer than the Great Desolate Yuanzu's disciples Xian Ting and Beikun Shen.
Although it is said that Emperor Kumu is not as good as Xianting and Beikun Shen in terms of Taoism, but Xianting and Beikun Shen both respect her as senior sister, because she has already become a master before Xianting and Beikun Shen. I followed the Great Wilderness Yuanzu.
Moreover, her practice has also been guided by the great ancestor of the wilderness. In the eyes of others, it is already very remarkable that she has become a great emperor who has entered the road of greatness with a maid, and that is already as high as the highest. exists.
However, it seems a bit unjustifiable, because she has followed the Great Desolate Yuanzu for so long, and is still an emperor. She has not broken through the bottleneck, has not proven the true self of Hunyuan, and has become the Yuanzu. This seems to be too much of a failure. After all, Bei Kunshen, as a generation of desolate gods, was able to finally slay the sky and enter the ruins. She, a person who has been in Taoism for a longer time, is still a great emperor. It cannot be justified no matter what. She has followed the ancestor of the desolate world for so long. , in such a long time, it seems to be in vain.
"Why isn't it true?" Li Qiye couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "Could I have made a mistake?"
"I don't dare, Ancestor." Emperor Kumu bowed hurriedly and said: "Disciple, disciple, I just haven't dared to break through, and I have always stayed here."
"Why?" Li Qiye looked at her and said calmly.
"It's just, it's just that this disciple feels that he is not good enough and the Dao foundation is not solid enough. He needs to hone himself further." Emperor Kumu couldn't help but hesitated for a moment and said softly: "My lord, it is only one step that has been wiped out by millions. Enlightenment is achieved step by step. Disciples do not dare to compare with the Master, and do not dare to be obliterated, but they should take it one step at a time."
"This is too conservative." Li Qiye shook his head gently and said with a smile.
"But, but, it's not enough for disciples to cultivate the Tao." Emperor Kumu couldn't help but hesitated for a moment, but still lacked confidence, and said in a low voice: "Perhaps, only by being extremely solid can we break the bottleneck and prove Hunyuan. Otherwise, if there is a natural disaster, Lower it, I’m afraid the disciples won’t be able to carry it.”
"Why, are you so unsure?" Li Qiye looked at Emperor Kumu and said slowly.
"Disciple -" Emperor Kumu couldn't help but hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Disciple has seen Emperor Zheng prove to be supreme, and the heavenly catastrophe fell, and it was absolutely terrifying. Emperor Zheng was astonishing for eternity, and the way is supreme. My generation can't reach it. Can’t withstand the catastrophe.”
Li Qiye couldn't help but laugh and said calmly: "You have seen Emperor Zheng go through the Heavenly Tribulation, but haven't you seen your Lord go through the Oblivion?"
"This -" For a moment, Emperor Kumu couldn't help but be stunned. She came back to her senses and murmured: "But, but, the Lord is eternal and the heart of the Tao is eternal. Nothing can shake it. I , I am just a mayfly and an ant, how can I dare to compare with the Lord? With the Lord’s eternal Taoist heart, what is there in this world that the Lord cannot accomplish?”
In the eyes of Emperor Kumu, the Great Wilderness Yuanzu is the most supreme immortal in the world. Her will can penetrate the entire three immortal worlds. There is nothing in the human world that the Great Wilderness Yuanzu cannot do.
"So, you are still missing a link." Li Qiye shook his head gently and said, "You are pragmatic and perseverant, and you are indeed very determined to consolidate every inch of your foundation along the way. "
"But Dao Xin, it not only includes perseverance, but also bravery and fearlessness." Li Qiye looked at Emperor Kumu and said slowly: "Your Lord, the Dao Heart is indeed eternal, but, She is not born with it, she has perfected it step by step. She also has a brave heart and a fearless heart."
"This, this is the same." When Li Qiye said this, Emperor Kumu couldn't help but be stunned.
Li Qiye smiled and said lightly: "You just saw your Lord's persistence in the Taoist heart, but you forgot her fearlessness and bravery, which are also part of the Taoist heart. If you are afraid, then even if If you try hard to stick to it, then, under fear, one day it will defeat your Taoist heart. By then, how can you talk about sticking to the Taoist heart?"
"Will he be defeated?" Emperor Kumu couldn't help but hesitated for a moment and asked: "This disciple has never dared to waver in the slightest. He has always stood firm and taken every step firmly and will not neglect it. Every detail.”
"There is no problem if you do this, but as you walk, you only have to guard." Li Qiye shook his head gently and said: "The firmness of the Taoist heart is not only to guard, but also to guard. To move, this requires fearlessness and bravery.”
"It's not just about guarding, you also need to move." Emperor Kumu couldn't help but murmured.
"If you don't have fearlessness and bravery, you will succumb to fear in the long years." Li Qiye looked at Emperor Kumu and said slowly: "Many supreme giants also think they can defend themselves, but in the long years, Over the years, under the erosion of time, I finally wavered. Why? Because I lost my fearlessness and bravery."
"Will he really be shaken?" Emperor Kumu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Li Qiye said slowly: "Today, your countless efforts are still at the end of the road, and you have never dared to take this step. When you were at your peak, you did not dare to take this step, but as time goes by, When your vitality is weak, I'm afraid, you won't even dare. At that time, let alone prove the true self of Hunyuan, I'm afraid you don't even have the courage and determination to think about it. At this time, I'm afraid, in your heart The situation will be shaken. Perhaps, you want to live a little longer to see if you can find another opportunity. However, when you take a step back, you will definitely retreat step by step. From wanting to prove the true self of Hunyuan , just retreat until you can live a little longer, then retreat until you can survive..."
"How many supreme giants have gone from being firm in their Taoist hearts to wavering in their Taoist hearts, just like this." Li Qiye sighed softly and said lightly: "How many epochs have passed, the supreme giants will eventually fall? Even in the blood-eating world, is it because he was depraved in the beginning? No, they have also adhered to their Taoist heart, otherwise, they would not have been able to achieve the supreme. That is because in the end, he himself lost If you lose your courage, you lose your fearless heart. Without courage and fearlessness, your determination will eventually be disintegrated."
Li Qiye's words immediately made Emperor Kumu stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.
"To hold on to the Taoist heart requires fearlessness and courage to defend it." In the end, Emperor Kumu finally understood, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat and shudder.
Li Qiye nodded and said slowly: "Yes, the persistence of the Taoist heart requires fearlessness and bravery to defend it. Otherwise, you will always stand still and will never be able to break through, even if you have consolidated your foundation and the Tao." It’s enough, you still can’t have a breakthrough, you have to take that step yourself.”
"Disciple thinks that a complete strategy is needed." Emperor Kumu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"A perfect strategy does not mean that it is 100% absolute." Li Qiye smiled and said: "Even the sky has some omissions, let alone all living beings. How can you compare yourself to the sky?"
"Disciple, I don't dare." Emperor Kumu bowed.
Li Qiye smiled and said: "Although obliteration and catastrophe have left a deep impression on you, your witnessing them has left a shadow on you. Therefore, you must take this step yourself and face it bravely. Only by doing this can you dispel your own shadow."
"Disciple, work hard." Emperor Kumu said.
"There is no need to wait any longer." Li Qiye ordered and said, "You can take this step now."
"Now?" Li Qiye's words frightened Emperor Kumu.
"Otherwise? Do you still want to prepare for tens of thousands of years?" Li Qiye glanced at her.
"Uh-" Kumu couldn't help but froze and laughed dryly. She still wanted to prepare well. When she was completely prepared, she would take this step. Of course, she didn't think carefully about how long she would have to prepare. .
"It's up to you to take this step. You need to face it fearlessly." Li Qiye gave a faint order, then turned and left.
