Where have all the ascendants gone in ancient and modern times?
There were not many people who ascended in ancient times. Among the most famous ones recorded in the history of Taoism in the world, Zhang Daoling, the founder of Taoism, was first recommended, followed by Zhong Liquan and Lu Chunyang.
But Wang Chongyang just wanted to ask why Immortal Ziyang wanted to save him at such a high cost.
Immortal Ziyang, who had his back to him, had an illusory figure and his aura was floating. He slowly turned his head and looked at the leader of Zhongnan Mountain:
"That's why."
"Senior, what do you mean?" Wang Chongyang frowned slightly and began to seriously think about Immortal Ziyang's words.
…Ascended Ones…
After a moment, he replied carefully:
"Although there are no records of those who have ascended in ancient and modern times who have reincarnated again, there are detailed records in the history books of all major sects. For example, when our Taoist Lu Zu ascended, he turned into a rainbow in front of several disciples and left in the daytime, talking about entering A deeper world."
The eyes of Immortal Ziyang are deep, as if the sun, moon and stars are brewing and rotating in them:
"If I hadn't fought with the old monster from Black Mountain, I might have been convinced of this. But after the five of us fought with the old monster, our views on this matter have changed."
Wang Chongyang asked solemnly: "What did Senior Ziyang discover?"
The person in front of me is now one of the top 13 great monks in the world. He is the master of heaven and earth, the incarnation of heaven and earth, and his realm has still reached the level of those who ascended in the past.
What exactly was discovered?
Immortal Ziyang closed his eyes and slowly uttered four words:
"There is spirit in heaven and earth!"
"Is there a spirit in heaven and earth?"
Wang Chongyang chewed these four words carefully, but after thinking about it for a moment, he suddenly felt a chill.
spirit?
The word "spirit" has different interpretations. For monks, the first thing that may come to mind is "spiritual energy".
There is spiritual energy in heaven and earth.
But the words that Immortal Ziyang spat out so carefully should naturally not have such a simple meaning.
So, is the meaning of "spirit" another interpretation of it?
spirit? Spirituality? soul?
"There is a soul in heaven and earth?!"
After Wang Chongyang said these five words, his expression changed drastically.
He stared closely at the expression of the great immortal in front of him, eagerly waiting for the other party's answer.
"This is not my opinion alone, but the opinion shared by the five of us after experiencing that battle."
"What do the five people think?" Wang Chongyang, his beard waving, held back his emotions and asked, "In that peak battle in Changbai Mountain, what did the seniors and others go through?"
The thirteenth realm monks have the same life span as heaven and earth, the same body as heaven and earth, and the same laws as heaven and earth. It can be said that reaching this realm has basically broken through most of the secrets between heaven, earth and the universe.
And that battle between the six thirteenth-level monks was bound to shake the universe. Now it seems that it is very likely that it was because of this battle that they saw some kind of deep-seated truth in the universe.
About ascension? About the spirit of heaven and earth?
"It's just what you think. It's all because of the old demon of Black Mountain. This giant demon is the number one under heaven. He is truly a demon of heaven!"
Wang Chongyang's fingers trembled slightly under his sleeves: "There are spirits in the world, do you mean the old demon from Montenegro?"
Immortal Ziyang's voice was light but not deep: "No, he is not yet at this level. At best, he can be regarded as a messenger of heaven and the steward of heaven and earth. If he is really a steward of heaven and earth, let alone the five of us joining forces, even if there are five more people, ten If we all come together, it’s impossible to exchange injuries with him.”
The old demon from Montenegro is the messenger and steward of heaven?
——Is this why it can defeat five immortals in the same realm with one?
Wang Chongyang was shocked in his heart and found it difficult to digest this information. The impact was simply too great.
He vaguely captured something, and felt his instinctive inner trembling, but he couldn't tell the specifics for a while.
At this time, Immortal Ziyang's faint words floated into Wang Chongyang's heart, exploding in his consciousness like a thunder from the sky.
"When we monks swallow the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, they are plundering the creation of heaven and earth to replenish themselves. Every immortal is made up of countless accumulations of heaven and earth. The creation of heaven and earth swallowed by monks in the Thirteenth Realm cannot be used in the same way. count.
Such behavior, if there is no spirit in the world, if a person in this world ascends after reaching the thirteen realms, even if the spirit energy taken away from it will never return, it will have no thought.
but……
What if He has a spirit..."
If there is a spirit in heaven and earth, how can it be allowed?
"So, those who have ascended from ancient times to the present have not succeeded in ascending at all?"
Wang Chongyang's eyelids twitched wildly and his beard trembled.
If there is a spirit in heaven and earth, can a person no matter how powerful he is, be the opponent of heaven and earth?
The old Black Mountain demon described by Immortal Ziyang as the steward of heaven is just a messenger type character. He can use the power of heaven and earth to fight one against five and exchange injuries for injuries.
What if Heaven itself takes action against someone to prevent them from ascending with their own power?
Who can ascend? Who is Tiandao’s opponent?
"This is exactly why I replaced you with a planet from Zhengyi."
Suddenly I heard Ziyang Immortal's jumping answer.
There was a hint of panic in Wang Chongyang's deep eyes: "Save me? For this reason, what is my connection with things like ascended beings and heavenly beings?"
Immortal Ziyang stared at Wang Chongyang and said slowly: "This is another secret that I and others saw during the battle with the old monster of Black Mountain, besides the existence of spirits in the heaven and earth."
Wang Chongyang didn't know why he still had his own affairs here: "About me, another secret? What is it?"
Immortal Ziyang's voice was faint: "Six masters of the Thirteenth Realm fought, and one of them included the old demon of Black Mountain who possesses the power of heaven. Such a battle exposed too many secrets of heaven and earth to our eyes. The first is Black Mountain. The identity of the old demon..."
"We know that it is the steward and messenger of heaven. The reason why we describe it this way is because we understand what its mission is."
"The so-called housekeeper is a role appointed by the head of the family to manage some things in the house. If the branches and leaves of a tree in the house grow crooked, the housekeeper needs to take someone to prune and cut the leaves."
"This is the mission of the Black Mountain Old Demon. The meaning of its existence is to help promote some of the destiny and historical trajectory destined by heaven without making mistakes."
"And because of our battle with him, the destined history and fateful trajectory of the heaven and earth that it maintains are also exposed to our eyes."
"Let me see that an important person in the future history is you..."
"Me?" Wang Chongyang's expression fluctuated.
Immortal Ziyang's eyes seemed to reflect the secrets of heaven, earth, time and space that he had learned during the battle with the Black Mountain old demon, and the secrets of the past and present: "In the fateful trajectory under the way of heaven, the Quanzhen Tao will develop into a state in your hands. In an unprecedented situation, the Quanzhen Church you founded will become the true source of our Quanzhen Taoism, and within the next two to three hundred years, the Quanzhen Church will become the largest religion in the world."
"So, you are shouldering the important mission of thoroughly promoting our Quanzhen Dao to the eight wildernesses of Yunei after Lu Zu. Because of this, I had to send Shi Tai to replace you with Yang Tianchen. "
When Wang Chongyang heard these last words, his heart turned upside down.
The indifferent mood cultivated by hundreds of years of practice is difficult to calm down at this time.
Even though he had already set his own goal in the past, to establish the Quanzhen Sect as the largest sect in the world and the first stream of Taoism, it was for Laojun to be orthodox.
But now being told to his face, "Your future is indeed like this", telling him the result in advance is equivalent to saying that what he does will be successful. This kind of encouragement is indescribable to anyone.
However, just when Wang Chongyang's mood was uncontrollably fluctuating.
Suddenly, a thought struck him like a sharp sword in his mind, and he suddenly raised his head:
"If I can really prosper the Quanzhen Sect in the future, what about Chen Xixiang? That young man? Who is he?"
Immortal Ziyang now tells himself that the Quanzhen Sect he will create in the future will be the first great sect in the Song Dynasty in the coming years.
But why would he still be defeated by Chen Xixiang, a young man less than twenty years old?
Moreover, that young man showed a talent that was more terrifying than him. Is this secret really accurate?
"I can only tell you that I and the other five people have not seen the future of that young man Zhengyi. In other words, he has no future in the way of heaven..."
Immortal Ziyang’s light words revealed too much information.
Wang Chongyang was stunned for a moment.
Without seeing the future, there is no future in the way of heaven.
This sentence seems to have two meanings.
One is that Chen Xixiang will not exist at all in the future. That is to say, although it seems that Chen Xixiang is now in the limelight and famous all over the world, he is just...
A shooting star in the long history, although it shines brightly, it disappears in a flash.
How long will it take before he will perish?
Is this why Immortal Ziyang can safely give him the ultimate magic weapon planet of the Thirteenth Level of One Sword? Does it mean that even if he takes it, he can’t enjoy it?
The second explanation is that Immortal Ziyang was wrong, or the way of heaven cannot control that person's future...
In Wang Chongyang's opinion, both explanations are equally absurd. At least he can't see any sign that the young man may die now.
But compared to the second kind of absurdity, a future that even Heaven cannot see, it seems...
The first explanation seems reasonable no matter how impossible it is.
"Whether it's fate or not, it all depends on human effort." Wang Chongyang's voice was deep and mellow.
"After swallowing a golden elixir, my fate is determined by God. I used to think so too. Perhaps, when you really see the face of Heaven, you will understand the meaning of the phrase 'the more you know, the less power you have.' ." There was a hint of inexplicable sadness in Immortal Ziyang's voice.
Wang Chongyang remained silent, but he could generally understand.
After all, just the tip of the iceberg is enough to give anyone an indescribable sense of oppression.
…………
Longhu Mountain.
Chen Xixiang was refining the star treasure with the help of more than thirty immortals in the Zhengyi Master's Mansion, and knew nothing about the conversation between Zhang Ziyang and Wang Chongyang on the other side of the world.
A treasure refined from a planet.
Even with the help of more than thirty immortals, Chen Xixiang estimates that it will take about three years to completely refine according to the refining progress in the past few days.
Time flies so fast as Chen Xixiang is refining the planet...
