What does becoming stronger mean to the Wild World? Nature means evolving to a higher stage. This is actually the same as the pursuit of a higher realm in spiritual practice.
It's just that the living beings only need to continue to comprehend as long as their talents allow it. As long as the "principle" still exists, they will definitely gain something.
But the same cannot be said for the Wild Sky Domain. Although its evolution can be accumulated slowly and naturally, it cannot survive on its own when it encounters a "bottleneck". This is very different from living beings.
Just like before the beginning of the world, the Wild Sky Realm used devouring to perfect itself. Later, he also relied on devouring to survive the early stages of the mutation. Later, when pursuing completeness, I still rely on swallowing the big world to finally determine the direction. It even finally swallowed up Chaos Territory to have the current world structure.
It can be said that the instinct to become stronger in the Wild Sky Realm is actually reflected in the word "devour".
Taking this as a guide, what about the great world that has the same underlying structure as the Wild Sky Domain? Is this also the case?
If the same is true for the great world of the prehistoric world, then it would make perfect sense that Hongzu, who was one with the great world of the prehistoric world, gave Zhang Yan the Wanxiang Pearl and created a world anomaly like the Desolate Heaven Realm.
Taking Zhang Yan, an anomaly brought to the void world by Tongtian, as a starting point, he cultivated a super world life similar to that of the great world, and then traveled back to it for the great world to devour and perfect. One Desolate Heaven Domain may not be enough, so raise a few more. There is always a chance.
Even if this speculation is followed, the time of Wanxiang Pearl's appearance is even more suspicious. It was obviously an arrangement made in advance. It should take into account Tongtian. Or are those saints from the prehistoric times and the war between the three religions all part of this plan?
Zhang Yan felt cold all over if he thought about it like this. Even Tongtian, who was described as embarrassed in front of him, became pitiful.
What chess player? What a chess player! Everyone is just a pawn!
Seeing that Zhang Yan remained silent, Tongtian continued: "All of us prehistoric saints became saints under the eyes of Hong Zu. Either it was the so-called "merit-based sainthood", or I became a saint through practice and enlightenment. .In fact, the difference lies only in the width of the channels to gain enlightenment.
Merit and virtue are all superficial. After Hong Zu joined the Tao, he could bestow them on whomever he wanted. Naturally worthless. When you comprehend the Great Way, you have the smallest channels. In addition, the great road is covered by Hongzu, and only those who are released can understand it.
It's better for people like me who rely on a ray of Hongmeng purple energy to achieve enlightenment. However, because the Hongmeng Purple Qi originated from the prehistoric times and was also controlled by the Taoist ancestors in disguise, although it is better than those who have gained the Tao through merit, it is not much better. Only by looking at talent can you tell the difference.
Everything originated from Hongzu, and even many methods were passed down from Hongzu. Therefore, all the saints in the prehistoric era called Hongzu their master. Based on this, who in the great world can escape the blessing of Hongzu?
So I am very curious about how you, Daoyou Zhang, achieved enlightenment. And in such a short period of time, he has accumulated such a profound knowledge of the avenue, which is several times higher than mine!
I don't know what level of cultivation my fellow Taoists have reached at this time, but the thickness of the Dao's veins alone is already stronger than when Hongzu first joined the Dao and divided the treasures at Fenbao Cliff. This is completely subversive!
I can say with certainty, Fellow Daoist Zhang, your current strength is definitely far beyond Hongzu’s expectations! "
Tongtian's words threw another big stone into Zhang Yan's already not so peaceful heart, causing even bigger waves than before. And he is gradually expressing his own attitude intentionally or unintentionally.
Zhang Yan still didn't speak, but thought about it carefully in his heart. He would not communicate with Tongtian again if he couldn't figure things out clearly. After all, this can be said to be some of the most core information in the great world.
If they are all true, then the true appearance of the great world is completely different from what is stated in Taoist books.
Is the ancient world the dojo of ancestor Hongjun?
Suddenly Zhang Yan seemed to feel from these few words of Tongtian that he was like this too? Is the Wild Sky Realm my own dojo?
Then Zhang Yan rejected the idea directly. Because he and Ancestor Hongjun seem to be very similar, but in fact they are different. The biggest difference is that Hongjun ancestor only grew into a half-life and half-world being after he joined the Tao, and could no longer even be separated from the great world. Zhang Yan, on the other hand, did not need Hedao to achieve the same life structure as ancestor Hongjun, and he was free and independent.
Therefore, although the Wild Sky Realm can be said to be Zhang Yan's dojo, Zhang Yan's attitude towards the dojo is completely different from the approach taken by ancestor Hongjun. They are run more as their own power, rather than being kept in captivity and simply used.
Of course, it’s hard to say how much of Tongtian’s words are true or false. Even if it were all true, Zhang Yan would not believe it immediately and could only use it as a reference.
"Fellow Taoist Tongtian seems to be very dissatisfied with Hong Zu?" Zhang Yan's brows widened again. He also wanted to understand that his advantage lay in his ability to advance and retreat, as well as his unique identity. Even if he really wants to face the legendary Hong Ancestor, he is not without confidence.
Tongtian has nothing to hide at this time. Frankly said: "Yes, I am the first to bear the brunt of Hongzu's calculations. I have said so much before, fellow Taoist Zhang should have guessed it, right? You and I are just chess pieces, and even my chess pieces are worse than yours. The kind that you throw away after use.
So, Fellow Daoist Zhang, don’t the sorrows and grievances of life and death necessarily have to be placed on my head? After all, I am also a "sword", and the handle of the knife is held in Hongzu's hand. "
Zhang Yan shook his head with a smile and said: "Fellow Taoist Tongtian, I won't hide my words from you even now. I listen to your words, but I don't dare to believe them. But I can still promise you to take you back with me. And I can I promise, once you don't lie to me, I will let you out immediately after I go back and my grudges with you will be wiped out.
But if you lie to me and have other plans, then I'm sorry. I believe that even if you return to the great world, you will still be locked up in this restriction, and it is not impossible for you to even be killed. "
"Zhang Daoyou is cautious. Anyway, I understand." After a pause, Tongtian said again: "I will also tell Zhang Daoyou the key to breaking the void separately."
"Okay, fellow Taoist Tongtian, please speak."
"First, we need to tear apart all the space layers in the void, and then use the volume of the world to invade into the tearing opening and slowly expand the opening. Therefore, the evolution intensity of the world is very important, because the greater the expansion, the stronger the counter-shock of the void will be. If the world gets bigger, it will all be empty talk if the world cannot hold on.”
"Then what? Is it gone?"
"Then we have to wait until Fellow Daoist Zhang's Desolate Heaven Domain meets the requirements. Perhaps Fellow Daoist Zhang can try it out on his own when he goes back. If it doesn't work, you can come look for me again. By then it should be time for us to return home together."
