After carefully thinking about everything he had just experienced, Bu Xiaotian suddenly had a realization in his heart.
In this place where fate manifests and time is disordered, he seems to be closer to the essence of fate and time.
Here, he can enter any time of any living being through these light balls, but this does not mean that he has transcended the shackles of fate and jumped out of the shackles of time.
Everything he does will still become part of his destiny. His efforts to change his and Mo Li's destiny are just inevitable in the past.
History cannot be changed!
This is the rule of time!
At the same time, he cannot go to the future and directly interfere with what will happen in the future.
Because everyone's future destiny is uncertain, and every choice you make will make your future go in a different direction.
Even in the long river of destiny, the future manifested in the ball of light is uncertain. When countless uncertain futures overlap, it is enough to overwhelm the mind of any living being.
This is the reason why Bu Xiaotian was almost wiped out when he was hit by the light ball.
As Bu Xiaotian's inner feelings continued to emerge, the aura around him gradually became ethereal, and even his body shape began to seem real and illusory.
Just when Bu Xiaotian felt that the true meaning of fate and time was becoming more and more clear, a dragon's roar suddenly sounded in his soul, pulling him out of his deeper and deeper enlightenment.
At the same time, the aura around Bu Xiaotian also became stable, and the illusory figure became solid again.
Bu Xiaotian was shocked when he came back to his senses. He had just almost taken the last step and entered the "realm of Tao".
This is not a good thing!
The Great Dao is ruthless. The Great Dao is made of pure rules and contains the essence of the operation of all things.
The avenue itself has no thought and will only operate according to the most primitive rules.
If Bu Xiaozhen really takes this step, he will be assimilated by the avenue, lose any emotions, become a puppet of the rules, and no longer have a self.
Perhaps from now on, there will no longer be Bu Xiaotian in this world, but only a walking corpse named Bu Xiaotian, or in other words - Tao slave!
Although he has not taken this step, Bu Xiaotian's understanding of reaching has also gone further at this time.
For example, he saw more things, the past of this world, and the truth about the great catastrophe of the world!
In ancient times, chaos first emerged.
The first beings born were conceived from the most primitive rules. They were veritable spirits of rules, and were also called innate gods by later generations.
The innate divine masters the power of rules and can change the rules at will. They are the most powerful creatures in the world.
But at the same time, when there is wisdom, there is thought, and when there is thought, there is a stance, and the opposition of stances naturally leads to battles.
After the innate divine birth, with the continuous evolution of heaven and earth, batch after batch of creatures were born.
Some of them were born naturally, while others were born by innate divine creation.
The former is called the innate being, and the latter is called the acquired being.
Innate beings are born with powerful powers. Although they are far less sacred than innate beings, they are much more powerful than acquired beings.
It seems natural that the strong bully the weak.
As a result, the innate gods had differences in their attitudes towards these two creatures.
Some of them believe that innate beings are naturally conceived, and the way of birth is closer to them. They are born to be nobler than acquired beings, and acquired beings should be enslaved and devoured by innate beings.
Others believe that acquired beings are created by them and can be regarded as the continuation of their lives, and there is no distinction between them and innate beings.
What's more, although acquired beings are born weak, they are good at learning and are equally likely to master powerful powers, even not weaker than innate beings.
The differences grew, and what began as arguments eventually turned into a war between the divine.
The war lasted for a long time, and the innate and acquired creatures were also swept away, until the sky collapsed and the earth collapsed!
In the end, the part of the Divine that is friendly to the incarnate souls triumphs.
Because they are also governed by rules, they cannot kill each other, they can only seal them.
Those defeated gods are the ancient demon gods in the legends of later generations.
Although the saints who were friendly to the incarnated beings won the final victory, it was only a miserable victory.
The war between the gods shattered the complete world into pieces, and the creatures between heaven and earth were left alone, barely surviving among the fragments of heaven and earth.
If left alone, the broken world will be swallowed up by chaos and turned into dust, and the creatures in it will have no way to survive.
Even the saints, after the entire world is annihilated, all that awaits them is their return to ruins.
After all, their birth depends on the rules of this world. If the world is annihilated, the rules will naturally disappear, and they will have no basis for survival.
To stop all of this, only by combining all the divine power and gathering the power of all the rules can all of this be reversed.
But after a great battle, some extreme demon gods refused. They would rather disappear with the world than surrender to the opponent who defeated them.
At this time, there are only two ways left. Either the world will be destroyed together with the world, or the saints will sacrifice themselves to feed the world and forcibly stabilize the broken world. The price is that all the saints will disappear.
The saints were a little hesitant. After all, it was difficult for even the saints to make a choice about sacrificing themselves to save the world.
In the end, they chose the second way.
Therefore, the saints sacrificed themselves to save the world.
Those demon gods who were unwilling to cooperate were also forcibly stripped of their rules, leaving only a trace of their origin that continued to be sealed.
In order to avoid tragedy from happening again, the saints jointly formulated the most stringent rules before they dissipated. Creatures in the world cannot live forever, life and death are irreversible, and the strength of individual creatures must not exceed a certain limit. If any creature tries to cross this boundary, it must be Will be assimilated by the rules and no longer have a self.
From then on, there was no more sacredness between heaven and earth, only pure rules.
At the same time, there are also a few extremely powerful saints who still left a trace of protection for the races they created after returning to the ruins, such as the god worshiped by the grassland barbarians - Huang.
This is also the truth why the five barbarian high priests can communicate with the gods to perform miracles.
As countless years passed, the seals left by the saints failed to stop the erosion of time and gradually became weaker.
When the seal disappears, the demon will awaken again.
Although they have been deprived of the power of rules, because they are born from rules, they are born with certain rules. Once they wake up, they can easily master the power of the corresponding rules again, and even extract the power of the rules. Strength, return to the divine person.
By that time, all living beings will be devastated!
And this is the coming catastrophe of heaven and earth!
It seemed like there was no solution, but Bu Xiaotian still saw a glimmer of hope!
In the long river of destiny, he saw several unusual rays of light. Even when countless light balls were rioting, those few rays of light remained motionless, seemingly unaffected, as if they had transcended fate.
Before Bu Xiaotian could further explore the origin of those rays of light, a dragon roar sounded in his heart, making him feel dazed.
When Bu Xiaotian came to his senses again, he had returned to the square in front of the Golden Palace of Kunlun Mountain, only half a step away from the soil where the immortal tree took root.
It was as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion, and in fact he had never left here.
But the long sword and the broken sword that fell in the soil made Xiaotian know that all this was not an illusion.
Bu Xiaotian bent down and picked up the "Gan Jiang" and the long sword of unknown origin, and carefully pulled up the spiritual grass closest to him.
Feeling the extremely rich power of earth and wood contained in the spiritual grass, Bu Xiaotian knew that this was the last elixir they had been searching for to refine the Heaven-Building Pill - Earth Root!
At the same time, looking at the immortal tree in front of him, Bu Xiaotian thought of another legend.
Legend has it that there is a magical fruit on the Immortal Tree, and eating it can lead to immortality.
If he gets the legendary divine fruit, then Mo Li...
Thinking of this, Bu Xiaotian couldn't help but get excited, and immediately raised his head to look for traces of the divine fruit.
But before Bu Xiaotian made any move, he only felt a powerful repulsive force coming from his body, and disappeared in a flash of white light.
Looking at the valley that suddenly appeared in front of him, Bu Xiaotian was a little anxious and looked around, but the entrance to Kunlun Mountain that Demon Lord Lingming opened had long since disappeared without any trace.
After searching for a long time without success, Bu Xiaotian finally gave up in frustration.
A moment later, Bu Xiaotian appeared in the small courtyard where Letian, Yagu and Qinglian lived in seclusion.
But there is no trace of anyone here anymore, and the small courtyard is full of weeds, as if it has been abandoned for a long time.
Could it be that something happened outside during the time he entered Kunlun Mountain that forced them to leave?
Thinking of this, Bu Xiaotian stopped delaying and disappeared in a flash.
Dian City is one of the thirty-six cities on the southwest border of the human race.
This majestic city is no different from when Bu Xiaotian left it, but the atmosphere in the city is inexplicably tense, with a trace of nervousness and wariness on everyone's face.
There are far fewer pedestrians on the roads in the city, and most of the vendors that used to be seen everywhere on the streets have also been reduced.
Some of the shops on both sides of the road were closed. Even those that were still open for business, there were only a few customers in the shops, and they looked very deserted.
The young man in green clothes and white hair walked slowly on the street. It seemed that he was not using any magic, but he could move forward dozens of feet with each step.
This unusual scene did not attract anyone's attention, as if no one could see him.
Although Bu Xiaotian's Qingyun robe was damaged in Kunlun Mountain and he no longer had the magic weapon to cover his aura, with his current state he no longer needed to use the Qingyun robe to disguise himself.
If he didn't want to, no one would notice him.
There is nothing unusual about his actions in the eyes of others.
But just when Bu Xiaotian was about to step out of the North City Gate, an old man wearing Taoist robes stopped him.
"Senior Tianji."
Bu Xiaotian recognized that the person who stopped him was Tianjizi.
At this time, in Bu Xiaotian's eyes, Tianjizi was no different from before, he still looked like a charlatan without any cultivation.
But if he is really a charlatan, it is impossible for him to be aware of his existence.
However, Bu Xiaotian didn't think too much about the uniqueness of the old Taoist priest. After knowing each other for many years, Bu Xiaotian already knew that the old Taoist priest must be extraordinary. He couldn't see through the old Taoist priest, which only meant that his cultivation level was still higher than his own. superior.
Tianjizi had a slight smile on his face as always, looked Bu Xiaotian up and down, and said:
"Yes, Not Bad."
I don’t know if he is referring to the improvement of Bu Xiaotian’s cultivation or seeing that Bu Xiaotian has solved the problem of lack of origin.
"Senior, what happened? Why do people in the city seem to be on guard against something?"
