Shen Yu was seizing the time to regulate the spiritual power in his body and try to make the spiritual power flow as slowly as possible. Hearing Meng Gui's words, Shen Yu sighed silently.
If he can directly escape from the Three Realms and Five Elements, then he still needs to worry about the backlash of heaven?
In other words, this is a false proposition that is simply impossible to realize.
Meng Gui nodded and continued to flip through the books.
There are thousands of ancient books in Yujing Mountain, and each of them is regarded as a heavenly book for Confucian disciples. If you read all the ancient books, there may be a solution.
In the next few days, Meng Gui and Shen Yu kept coming up with hypotheses, then denying their own hypotheses, and repeated their exchanges.
The old man in gray robe is worthy of being an extraordinary and saintly figure. When studying problems, he never looks down upon them. Instead, he attaches great importance to Shen Yu's ideas.
This is probably what real scholars look like when they discuss difficult issues.
Shen Yu unknowingly recalled the days when he and Su Mo were revising Taoism in Yuan Temple. This situation could be said to be very similar.
However, as time went by, the two of them were still at a loss to solve the huge problem of the four-word "Tiandao Backlash".
This day.
Shen Yu stood at the highest point of the pavilion and looked at the rolling sea of clouds in the distance. He was silent for a long time, and a light seemed to ignite in his eyes. Then the light became stronger and stronger, and gradually turned into hope.
Shen Yu said, "You can do it the other way around."
Meng Gui was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"
Shen Yu asked: "You can escape the backlash of heaven by leaving the three realms. This is standing at the highest point. If you go the other way and completely knock yourself into the dust, can you still be in peace? Take this opportunity to escape the backlash of heaven?"
There was a brief silence.
Meng Gui was slightly startled when he thought about the possibility of this method. He thought for a moment and said, "It's possible, but it's not completely clear. You have to know that even mortals in this world will be bound by the invisible heaven, but it's just very small. .”
Shen Yu looked seriously into the old man's eyes and said: "As long as the degree of Heaven's backlash against spiritual energy is slower than the growth rate of my spiritual energy, then it will be an opportunity and I can continue to practice."
Meng Gui understood what Shen Yu meant, but felt it was too shocking and absurd, so he remained silent.
"This is too dangerous. If you want to forcibly abolish your cultivation, it may reduce the degree of backlash from heaven, but the question is...will you die, and whether you can restore your current cultivation in the future, and more importantly The thing is... if this is really the case, your path to spiritual practice will become increasingly difficult in the future, almost more difficult than climbing to heaven."
Meng Gui said: "There is no example yet that can prove the feasibility of this method. If you abolish your cultivation and the backlash of Heavenly Dao is still strong, then you will not even have a chance to make a comeback."
Shen Yu said calmly: "I have no time, and there is no other way."
"Try it." Shen Yu finally said.
...
Meng Gui looked at Shen Yu, who was extremely determined at this moment, and said nothing to stop him.
Because this is indeed a solution among no solutions.
But what surprised him was... Shen Yu's expression at this moment was surprisingly firm and calm, as if the decision he just made didn't need to be considered. This kind of mentality made Meng Guidu look slightly sideways.
Making a decision as important as life and death and actually taking action are two completely different concepts, but the old man in gray robe did not expect that Shen Yu did not hesitate at all between the two.
Doesn't he know that self-destruction is almost equivalent to a narrow escape from death?
"He's a really nice young man."
Meng Gui thought this, and then asked: "Can't you wait any longer?"
"No wait, let's do this." Shen Yu said.
Meng Gui said: "Then here, Yujing Mountain can save your life."
Shen Yu cupped his fists slightly and said, "Thank you very much."
...
Yujingshan Qiongtai.
Shen Yu sat cross-legged in the sea of clouds
.
After a moment, the sea of clouds began to roll, and light clouds and mist wrapped around Shen Yu's body, as if to protect his eight extraordinary meridians.
I don’t know how long it took.
Shen Yu breathed out gently, and this breath also dissipated the last bit of spiritual power that he had guarded for the past few months.
The wind blows and the clouds surge.
The horrifying Taoist spirit that had been cultivated in Shen Yu's body spread out, and there was a thunderous roar in the air. The sea of clouds was cut, strong winds swept through Qiongtai, and cracks appeared on the hard ground.
The spiritual energy whizzed past like a knife.
Seeing this scene, the gray-robed old man was very surprised. He did not expect that the pure Taoist meaning in Shen Yu's body was so terrifying, and it was completely unlike the true Taoist meaning of ordinary practitioners.
The true meaning of the avenue that has nowhere to go floats in Yujing Mountain, cutting through countless seas of clouds.
But after all, the Taoist intention had no place to stand, and it completely disappeared between heaven and earth in less than half an hour.
Mu Jian Jingqing appeared next to Shen Yu inexplicably. She turned into a human form. Her expression was unclear on her cold face, and she just sat quietly cross-legged.
Looking at Shen Yu, her indifferent eyes also lacked complex emotions.
Instead of resisting the backlash of the power of chaos, Shen Yu destroyed his Tao body. From this moment on, Shen Yu's realm fell to the bottom. Not only was the golden elixir realm unstable, but he even fell crazily from the peak of the Dao realm and the Qi refining realm.
One breath at a time.
After nine breaths, Shen Yu finally became a mortal without any cultivation.
Back then in the Yanfa Hall, he asked Xin Dao that he took one breath and reached the ninth level of Qi Refining after nine breaths. Unexpectedly, he returned it in the same way now.
Shen Yu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling unsteady. His entire face was as pale as paper, and even his figure began to tremble.
Destroying the Tao body is equivalent to destroying one's life gate, and the pain endured is naturally unimaginable to ordinary people.
Jing Qing subconsciously wanted to help Shen Yu to the ground, but was interrupted by the gray-robed old man, "You can't touch him within three days. He must persist on his own to regain his consciousness, otherwise... he will become a complete invalid even if he doesn't die."
...
Three whole days.
Shen Yu was like a dead person, with only his body hovering above the sea of clouds, his hands resting weakly on his knees, and his whole body even exuded the aura of death.
Jing Qing watched this scene silently, with anxiety and worry in his eyes.
She asked: "What will happen if I can't wake up within three days?"
Meng Gui said calmly: "I will die."
During this period, Su Mo and Yan Shigu came here and saw Shen Yu above the sea of clouds. They understood everything instantly, while their eyes revealed endless worry.
Yan Shigu couldn't help but sighed: "Teacher, are you being a little too wild? Shen Yu has such a temper, you should stop him."
Meng Gui said expressionlessly: "This is his own choice. If I hadn't been watching here, he would have done the same elsewhere."
Su Mo looked at Shen Yu quietly, looked up and down, and finally said, "It should be fine."
