He stopped playing with it and held it tightly, just like his mood at the moment. He asked Zhao Ning, "Why did he merge into the ruins of time? After his consciousness dispersed, there will be no more reshaping of Yuanling and... in this life." possible."
"It was Zhang Yan Tianzun's own choice." Zhao Ning said, "Zhang Yan Tianzun knows that only in this way will his corpse not be separated again and face being expelled from the world."
"Moreover, he will have reincarnation like this. When Yu Yu returns to the ninth heaven and the ruins of time disperse, he will return to the world in reincarnation and start over again. Although his past realm is no longer there, the avenue of time and space will remember him, and he will eventually return. To reach the same heights and ascend to higher realms.”
Fengying Tianzun leaned back slightly, looking through the void and not knowing what he was looking at, "So this is it...it can still be like this...is this deity...too persistent?"
The atmosphere was probably slow and steady, so Zhao Ning asked directly, "Is Fengying Tianzun obsessed with gambling, or is it to overcome the calamity?"
After experiencing the first decline of Hongxi in the Heavenly Being, Zhao Ning knew that the decline of the calamity could be transferred to low-level cultivators, and then the life span of the low-level cultivators could also be transferred to the Heavenly Beings, in order to save the Heavenly Beings. The fourth decline of a person is the decline of longevity.
"The calamity of decline? How can we survive it?" Fengying Tianzun laughed loudly, "Relying on these nihilistic people?"
Zhao Ning was puzzled, "This is a time and space node. Isn't it a fragment of time and space from that year?" Zhao Ning meant that Fengying Tianzun relied on these people to overcome the calamity.
"It was back then, but it's different now." Fengying Tianzun raised his hand and pointed, and many gambling tables appeared in the void. The gaming tables were still the same people gathered when Zhao Ning came in, "Do you think these people are still the same people from back then? ? They are shadows of nothingness born from the self-evolution of time and space nodes. Their life essence is nothing but nothingness, how can they survive the decline of life essence."
Zhao Ning suddenly understood that these people were the same as the people in the time and space nodes built by the remaining breath of the East Emperor Cauldron, and they could break through the boundaries of time and space.
But where did they come from.
Zhao Ning suddenly remembered the three forked roads, Fengying Tianzun laughed, "These three forked roads connect the other three time and space nodes, and they are all closely related to me."
Having said this, the meaning is self-evident. There are also fragments of Fengying Tianzun's consciousness in the three connected time and space nodes.
Fengying Tianzun looked into the void, as if he was looking at the consciousness fragments at the four time and space nodes. "Sometimes, I can hardly recognize this place clearly. It seems that the time ruins are also a real world."
Zhao Ning interrupted Fengying Tianzun's murmur at this moment, "If everything in the time ruins is real, then it deviates from the way of heaven and violates the law. Even if there is something special, it is because the way of heaven is incomplete. If Fengying Tianzun is lost in this way, In my consciousness, I may never know time and space."
The last sentence is really a bit harsh, it is denying Fengying Tianzun's way.
Behind him, Wu Ci and Yang Fu were cowering. At first they wanted to block Zhao Ning's front to show their loyalty, but now they found that they had no qualifications or ability to intervene.
Fengying Tianzun looked at Zhao Ning with a sense of scrutiny. Zhao Ning looked back calmly. After a moment, he laughed dumbly and said, "Yes, you are right. I am not as clear as you, a little girl who has been practicing for hundreds of years." .”
How many...hundreds of years? Wu Ci and Yang Fu were stunned.
Zhao Ning only said, "It is Tianzun who has stayed here for too long."
Fengying Tianzun lowered his eyes, "Yes, it has been four million years. This gamble has not ended in four million years. Maybe I was wrong."
Mentioning the gambling game again, Zhao Ning asked, "What was the gambling game back then?"
Feng Yingtian respects Xin and rolls the dice, "The bet is between Shangqingtian and Jiuchongtian, who will be the last one."
Zhao Ning had probably predicted it, and his face was very calm, "Fengying Tianzun is betting on the Nine Heavens."
Fengying Tianzun raised his eyebrows, "Of course."
Zhao Ning continued smoothly, "The other person is betting on Shangqingtian."
"No." Unexpectedly, Fengying Tianzun denied Zhao Ning, "He didn't bet, he just gave me chips. If I win the bet, he will help me attain enlightenment."
Zhao Ning suddenly raised her eyes.
"...If I lose." Fengying Tianzun twitched the corner of his mouth, "If I lose, the entire Jiuzhongtian will be gone, that person is probably gone, and there will be no objection to the bet."
"Who... is that?" Zhao Ning asked.
Fengying Tianzun looked at Zhao Ning and suddenly smiled, "A shadow."
Zhao Ning never expected such an answer. She even thought that Fengying Tianzun was teasing her, so she hid the truth.
The Wind Shadow Tianzun continued to explain, "It is indeed a shadow. That is the first time I have seen that person's true form with my own eyes. Oh, it is just a shadow that can reach the Nine Heavens Palace."
Zhao Ning's voice softened, "Is it... the Lord?"
Fengying Tianzun looked at Zhao Ning with a smile, but did not directly answer Zhao Ning's words, but recalled what happened back then.
Four million years ago, the starlight was projected on the Wind Shadow Holy City where the stars had not been seen all year round. It was a figure. Ignoring all the gamblers, he only clasped his hands to fight in the air. He took a step. All the creatures in the Wind Shadow Holy City froze and took another step. With one step, the breeze blew by, turning aside the messy appearance of Fengying Holy City, revealing Fengying Tianzun's dojo.
"Qi Fengying." The person in the starlight shouted calmly.
The light of the dojo was focused in the deepest part. Fengying Tianzun opened his eyes and stared away. He did not get up from the lotus throne, but only bowed his hands from a distance.
"...I heard that you went to Tongtian Huanyu, but it turns out you didn't leave."
The person in the starlight said, "The seed of the Supreme Heaven is broken."
"Wha...what?" Fengying Tianzun straightened up and lost control of his emotions for a moment. He didn't know whether to be shocked or happy.
He murmured, "Isn't that a great victory in the Nine Heavens, and the way of heaven will be perfected..."
"We didn't win." The other party said, "Time and space are in chaos."
Fengying Tianzun paused and stared at the figure, "You...what did you say?"
"Time and space are chaotic, and the Heavenly Dao Seed of the Supreme Purity is divided into three parts and scattered into the future time and space."
Fengying Tianzun understands the meaning of this sentence better than anyone else. His nearly one million years of practice has focused on the avenue of time and space, and more on time and cause and effect.
He suddenly realized why the other party came here, "Are you here to ask if I secretly helped Shangqingtian? I have practiced for millions of years and inherited the thick earth hall. Is the orthodox path of the Nine Heavens, and the manic and chaotic Shangqing?" What the hell is involved!”
"It's just that the aura of the Thousand Earth Hall remains."
One sentence almost made Fengying Tianzun fall off the lotus throne, "How... how is it possible?"
"However, that is not you." As if he was deliberately oppressing Fengying Tianzun, Fengying Tianzun did not recover for a moment, and only murmured, "Then... then why did you come to me? Although I am cultivating the Great Way of Time and Space, But I am currently in a state of decline and have no way to transcend time and space."
"I know," he said, "but the Great Path of Time and Space will definitely determine the victory or defeat of the Nine Heavens."
Fengying Tianzun twitched the corner of his mouth, "Impossible."
It's not that he doesn't believe it, but he doesn't believe the meaning behind it, which means that the avenue of time and space will be sacrificed to the way of heaven.
"...The Avenue of Time and Space is just one of the innate avenues. It is not as good as the Five Innate Virtues, and it is not as good as the innate destruction. How can it be the key to determine the survival of the Nine Heavens? Moreover, I am just a human monk who has been practicing for millions of years. , compared to the existence of endless heaven, what is it? It requires my sacrifice to save the Nine Heavens, how ridiculous?"
The other party didn't speak, just looked at him. After a moment, he slowly fell to the ground, the starlight around him dispersed, showing the appearance of his true body, but it was still a shadow, without a physical body. Only then did Fengying Tianzun realize that this high-ranking person The people in Jiutian Temple are just shadows.
He raised his hand and pointed, only to see hundreds of rays of light streaking vertically across the dojo, criss-crossing each other, forming a chessboard look.
"Fengying Tianzun is good at gambling. I will play a game with you. However, I am not good at this kind of gambling. It is better to use chess instead of dice. Any win or loss can be a gambling game."
Fengying Tianzun hesitated for a moment, "How to bet?"
The shadow said, "If one day, only the avenue of time and space can solve the Nine Heavens, then I will use this to sacrifice to the heavens. The gambling begins from now on..."
He raised his hand, and hundreds of black and white chess pieces flew high in the air. Each white chess piece reflected the scenery of the ninth heaven, and every black chess piece reflected the scenery of the upper clear sky. "The ninth heaven is white, and the upper clear sky is white." For Black, Fengying Tianzun chooses one."
Fengying Tianzun raised his eyes and stared at him, examining the most fundamental meaning of his gamble. The next moment, he grabbed a sunspot and controlled it from the air.
"The realm of heaven and man cannot be destroyed by the destruction of Tao. Since the Shangqing Heaven is not destroyed in this way, it means rebirth. It is a victory." Fengying Tianzun murmured, "If it is a different source of heaven, it is not a bad idea."
But he saw that Shadow's expression remained unchanged and he just said, "Yes."
Fengying Tianzun frowned even more, let go of Heizi, and asked, "What are the chips?"
"The Great Way of Time and Space." Shadow's words were slow but powerful, "The Great Way of the universe."
Fengying Tianzun opened his eyes wide, "As long as I win?"
"yes."
"Whichever one you choose?"
"yes."
Fengying Tianzun hesitated for a moment. He once again stared at the strange shadow in front of him. He had little contact with this elusive person. Occasionally he could learn a little bit from other heavenly people, but he also knew that this person's thinking was meticulous and guarded. Determined, so he didn't believe it when he said that this person had given up the Nine Heavens and left the world.
Now he is really standing in front of him, and now he wants to have a gamble with him. As long as he wins, he can even choose to go to the Qingtian.
There was a vague sense of weirdness and panic in his gut, and he felt like he was already involved.
After a moment, he tightened his hand and grabbed it again, and what he caught was Bai Zi.
He said coldly, "In this case, Jiuchongtian is the source of heaven, so I will make this bet on Jiuchongtian's behalf."
When he finished speaking, he saw an unknown smile on the other side.
After the memories faded away, Fengying Tianzun's thoughts returned to the present, and he turned the dice in his hand dejectedly, "Now that things have happened, it is difficult to decide whether to win or lose. If I had chosen to go to Qingtian back then, would the situation still be like this now?"
"Yes." Unexpectedly, Zhao Ning suddenly picked up his murmur, Fengying Tianzun raised his eyes to look at her, "What did you say?"
Zhao Ning said, "Didn't Venerable Feng Ying Tianzun feel weird and frightened at that time? Back then, the time ruins were proposed by Feng Ying Tianzun, right?"
Fengying Tianzun narrowed his eyes, "So what?"
"If you had chosen Shangqingtian back then, then it would not have been your suggestion, but you would have been the eye of the formation, influencing the other three Heavenly Lords."
Fengying Tianzun's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly stood up from the lotus throne, "You are talking nonsense."
"How can I talk nonsense?" Zhao Ning retorted, her voice still calm, and told him the most likely arrangement, "You choose Bai Zi, you propose Shixu, after the victory of the Nine Heavens, the heavens will align, and we can use this to prove the time and space. ; You choose Heizi and are forced to form the formation of Shixu. When the Shangqingtian is victorious and the Shixu is destroyed, you are cut off from the Nine Heavens and the Source Heaven. It is also enlightenment.”
Fengying Tianzun fell down on the throne, staring blankly into the void, murmuring, "So that's it, that's it..."
He was probably completely immersed in this conclusion and could not extricate himself.
Zhao Ning did not interrupt his thoughts anymore and turned around. Behind him, Wu Ci and Yang Fuzheng were waiting with bows and they noticed Zhao Ning's gaze dropped.
Then he knelt down and said, "Venerable Zhao Ning, we did not intentionally misunderstand your meaning, let alone contradict you. You... you punish us as you please."
Zhao Ning did not speak, but walked slowly between them. The two knelt down and turned around, looking at Zhao Ning's leaving figure, and then looked at each other. For a moment, they didn't know what Zhao Ning was planning and how he was going to punish them. .
Seeing that Zhao Ning's figure was about to disappear in front, Wu Ci and Yang Fu quickly followed, falling a few steps behind.
Yang Fu was still about to explain his plea for mercy, but Wu Ci looked at him and silenced him.
The two of them shut up and followed.
Until they walked through the prison-like gambling room again and walked into the bustling gambling house, Zhao Ning was still walking forward. The two of them looked at the smoky atmosphere of the gambling house and felt that the Venerable Zhao Ning in front of them probably didn't like this. Such an environment, but Zhao Ning didn't say a word.
Suddenly, a gambler next to him lost completely. In anger and despair, he suddenly lifted the gambling table and stepped back, just in time to bump into Zhao Ning.
Wu Ci and Yang Fu never expected that Zhao Ning would fall down after such a collision.
"Venerable Zhao Ning!" Wu Ci shouted in surprise and immediately stepped forward to help him.
And Yang Fu directly used Taoism to freeze everyone, and then waved them away.
The area cleared instantly and became quiet.
Wu Ci wanted to help Zhao Ning up, but before he could touch Zhao Ning, Zhao Ning raised his hand to stop him.
Zhao Ning fell to the ground, her head lowered, looking extremely weak. She was already weak when she entered the Wind Shadow Holy City, let alone how she managed to hold on all the way until she faced off against the Wind Shadow Tianzun.
However, her consciousness did not dissipate, she only adjusted her breath slowly.
