Wu Wang really didn't expect that these old gods would dare to say this.
After the Emperor of Heaven's chariot arrived at the Ruins of Kunlun, in order to show respect for the Queen Mother of the West, Wu Wan only brought Zhu Rong Huoling and the twelve gods of the Tiangong into the nine-level Tianmen.
The nine-layer Tianmen corresponds to nine small worlds, each with its own universe and characteristics, but Wu Wan obviously did not have the time to visit one by one.
He met Queen Mother Xi and exchanged a few words. When Queen Mother Xi suggested that they could be alone for a while, Wu Wan simply got straight to the point and got to the point.
"The Queen Mother of the West also knows why I am here."
Wu Wan said seriously: "Why don't we do this business now? When this matter is settled, it won't be too late for us to talk casually."
The Queen Mother of the West smiled and nodded, her dress that looked like fairy light swaying gently, and said warmly: "In that case, His Majesty the East Emperor, please come with me, you don't have to go."
"Why don't you have to go?"
Wu laughed and said:
"All the gods here are my beloved relatives and friends, and they are also my brothers and sisters. Half of the position of Emperor of Heaven was given by the Emperor, and half of it was obtained by their efforts.
Could it be that the Queen Mother of the West felt that this matter was a bit shameful? "
"this……"
Queen Mother Xi's smile faded, she frowned, stared at Wu Wan, and said softly:
"His Majesty Donghuang, please think twice. It is better not to announce some things to the public, so as not to cause panic to the world."
"His Majesty!"
Yun Zhongjun stood up and said, "Seeing that Queen Mother Xi is in a bit of a dilemma, why don't Huo Ling and I accompany you?"
Wu Wan groaned a few times, showing dissatisfaction.
Yun Zhongjun smiled awkwardly and looked at Queen Mother Xi helplessly.
"Monarchs" - Dahuang Theater, performs wonderfully anytime, anywhere.
Queen Mother Xi secretly sighed in her heart, but she could only smile and say: "If Lord Yun Zhong goes, I can be the master, but this newly promoted God of Fire may not have a thorough understanding of heaven and earth."
Huo Ling stood quietly behind Wu Wan without any expression.
"That's all."
Wu Wang swept his sleeves and said, "Then I'll ask the Queen Mother of the West to lead the way."
Huo Ling didn't understand what they were talking about from beginning to end.
How could the Queen Mother of the West not know that Wu Wang and Yun Zhongjun's singing together was a routine?
But when facing Wu Huan, Queen Mother Xi could not find the confidence she had when she faced Emperor Kuang. Even if Emperor Kuang later mastered the Dao of Time, the pressure he put on her was not even 10% as much as the young Emperor in front of her.
The way of heaven.
Emperor Kuang just counterattacked and rose to become the new Emperor of Heaven;
But the human man in front of him, who was born in the human realm, has created an unprecedented order.
"Your Majesty, please, Qishen please."
Queen Mother Xi stood up slowly, holding her hands in front of her body, her behavior was indescribably graceful and elegant.
On the side, Lu Wu immediately led several gods forward to receive the rest of the gods in heaven on behalf of the Queen Mother of the West.
Therefore, not long after Wu Wang and Yun Zhongjun entered the hall, they were led away by Queen Mother Xi.
Although the gods in heaven who stayed here were puzzled, they did not dare to ask any more questions.
They did not dare to provoke the Queen Mother of the West, the holder of the Heavenly Punishment Avenue. It seemed that the ruins of Kunlun must be hiding some secrets, and this secret was closely related to the Queen Mother of the West and His Majesty the East Emperor.
Although the Queen Mother of the West has that reputation;
But in this context, it is impossible to be romantic and happy.
In the small world of Kunlun Ruins, the Queen Mother of the West remained silent all the way.
But when Wu Wan and Yun Zhongjun looked at each other, they could see a little smile and inevitable tension in each other's eyes.
No one knows how many backhands these old gods hide.
Wu Wang insisted on calling for a helper just to be on the safe side, so that he would have someone to take care of him during the fight to avoid being plotted against him.
Speaking of old gods, Yun Zhongjun is old enough, but not as old as the old gods of Kunlun Ruins.
What’s interesting is that the way to go to the secret realm this time is completely different from the last time.
Queen Mother Xi took them to a dense forest. After walking in the forest for a while, a giant tree that required at least ten people to surround appeared in front of them.
The rich essence of wood rushed towards his face, making Wu Huan suspect that half of the avenue of wood was hidden here.
The Queen Mother of the West walked forward slowly, and the tree trunks rippled like water. Wu Wan and Yun Zhongjun looked at each other, walked forward side by side, and stepped into it closely behind.
The light and shadow in front of them were a little distorted, but this distortion did not give them any feeling, and as they took a few steps, the distortion disappeared.
Arrive at Guixu again.
On the low, desolate, and boundless loess, the circular 'fighting arena' appeared again in Wu Wan's sight.
'Be careful. '
Yun Zhongjun's voice sounded from the bottom of Wu Wan's heart. This ancient god, who always showed his smile to others, now had an extremely serious and handsome face.
The three of them walked to the 'gap' in the wall.
The door that was more than ten feet deep in front of him still made Wu Wan feel a little depressed.
The Queen Mother of the West, who was walking gracefully, turned around, nodded slightly to Wu Wan, and said:
"His Majesty Donghuang, you are so energetic, please come in by yourself."
"Good work."
Wu Wangong cupped his hands, and Queen Mother Xi bowed her head in salute. Her figure turned into a ball of light and flew into it, and she returned to her seat.
Yun Zhongjun originally wanted to take a half-step to explore the road, but before he could take a step, Wu Wan had already put his hands behind his back and strolled forward.
That expression, that demeanor, and that calm pace, as if he were taking a walk after dinner, feeling contented.
After walking through the corridor and walking into the ruins, the forty-nine figures appeared on the surrounding walls again, and the Queen Mother of the West was still sitting in her throne.
Yun Zhongjun turned his head and looked around, not hiding the curiosity in his eyes.
Those forty-nine figures all have the appearance of the innate Tao body, they are tall, short, fat, thin, male, female, old and young;
Similar to Wu Wan's feeling when he came last time, Yun Zhongjun also felt "all-encompassing" in the images of these old gods, as if they contained endless wisdom.
"Donghuang."
Directly in front of Wu Wan, the old woman in gray clothes spoke again, her eyes compared to last time...
More complex.
She said: "I never thought that you would give us so many surprises, completely deviate from the trajectory we predicted, and easily solve the problem of Di Kui in this way."
The other forty-eight gods spoke one after another, and the voices continued to come from everywhere, and each voice had its own characteristics, giving people the illusion of being unified.
The old god said:
"Your way of heaven must cover all avenues. It's a bold design, but it also has many hidden dangers."
"If the way of heaven produces consciousness, does it mean that the heaven and earth have produced consciousness."
"Will this cause the tragedy of the First Age of Gods? Donghuang, can you explain to us clearly how you suppress the Dao of Heaven to generate consciousness."
"You seem to be being interfered with by another force. This force comes from the future, spans time and space, and is guiding you in a certain direction."
"Guiding the upstream of the River of Time from the downstream of the River of Time is a forbidden matter in the First Age of Gods. Of course, it has no binding force now."
"This seems to be some kind of numerology, and don't all the consciousnesses in the world like to break numerology? Why do you obey?"
…
"Everyone!"
Wu Wan suddenly spoke: "If you ask so many questions at the same time, then I can only answer you - the voice is too low, I can't hear you."
Forty-nine old gods fell into silence at the same time.
An old god with a beautiful face was lying on his side on a jade stone. He was looking at Wu Wan and said slowly:
"Donghuang is saying that we can no longer interfere with you."
Her beauty gives people a sense of discomfort, as if after complicated calculations and verifications, the art of beauty was finally determined - a bit artificial.
"put one's oar in?"
Wu Wang looked thoughtful and said with a smile: "I'm a little unclear. Why do you want to interfere with me, and how can you interfere with me?"
The old gods spoke one after another:
"Is Donghuang here to provoke?"
"Or maybe His Majesty Donghuang feels that you have not gained any benefit from us, so you are not ready to give us any respect now?"
"His Majesty Donghuang seems to have forgotten the great array we gave you."
Wu Wang nodded slightly, his face softened slightly, and he smiled and said: "The Zhoutian Xingdou Formation really helped me a lot, otherwise it wouldn't be me and Yun Zhongjun standing here today, but millions of heavenly soldiers forming a great formation." , turning the ruins of Kunlun into the back garden of heaven."
"What does Donghuang mean by this?" The old woman's eyes were sharp, "Donghuang thinks we are a threat?"
"Is not it?"
Wu Wan's eyes were still very calm:
"Before the newly established Heavenly Palace, the Queen Mother of the West went to look for me, which should represent the collective will of everyone here.
If I understand correctly, what you mean is to use a small part of the avenues you control to complete the way of heaven, and then you need me to give you more authority over the way of heaven.
And this authority, according to your style of conduct, should be the right to supervise the way of heaven, and the right of heaven to supervise all living beings.
Did I say something wrong? "
The old gods were silent again.
Wu Huan looked at Queen Mother Xi in the corner. The latter's eyes were slightly closed, and her long eyelashes were tangled up and down, as if she was asleep.
The old woman in gray clothes in front of him said: "Don't we deserve this? Before Donghuang started to gain power, we helped him, which put great pressure on him."
"It also created great difficulties for me. It made me think every day about how to cover up the similar experiences I had with Di Kuang."
Wu Wan raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and said calmly:
"But you still remember the last avenue torture. You asked me why I took this road. You should still remember my answer."
A goddess said: "The sublimation of self-worth."
"That's just a scene," Wu Wang said calmly, "I want to create a perfect order, create a perfect era, and achieve a perfect Emperor of Heaven.
The way of heaven is the answer I gave, and you should also feel its power.
Did you give me any help in the process of forming the way of heaven? "
The old gods looked a little ugly.
Wu laughed and said: "You just gave me a formation that complemented part of my own strength, and you didn't even give me the slightest suggestion of forming a new order.
And now, are you going to pick up the fruits of victory?
Based on this formation, I can give you a body in a private name - this requires a lot of heavenly merit, and it is my own heavenly merit.
But that's all. You just used the avenues you have mastered to predict the future, telling me that I will become the Emperor of Heaven, and then after everything calms down, I will stand on my head and that of all sentient beings.
Are you a little too arrogant? "
"Be bold!"
An old god who was three feet tall yelled angrily, and intense pressure erupted, pressing down on Wu Wan head-on.
Wu Huan didn't even blink, a faint golden light appeared around him, and the majesty dissipated in an instant, turning into a wisp of breeze and a few petals, floating in front of Wu Huan.
"You guys are really brave."
Wu Wang raised his head slightly: "The imagination from the first generation of gods is really amazing."
"Or we can adopt a more sincere attitude towards each other."
The surrounding circular platform suddenly began to move, and a slender middle-aged man appeared directly in front of Wu Wang instead of the old woman.
This old god wore a robe of complicated styles, and his eyes were like sharp swords, as if he could pierce Wu Wan's defenses.
But at the same time, the faint golden light around Wu Wan acted as an absolute barrier, blocking out the pressure exerted by the old gods on him and Yun Zhongjun.
The old god said slowly:
“His Majesty Donghuang is the architect of Heavenly Dao, and he should be able to sense that there are huge hidden dangers in Heavenly Dao.
If Heaven generates its own consciousness and hides it from Donghuang, how much damage will it cause to Heaven and Earth?
The way of heaven has now spread across the entire wilderness, covering the heaven and earth like a giant net, slowly seeping into the world. This is equivalent to controlling the world. "
Wu Wan remained silent.
This issue is actually very complicated, especially after the conversation with Zhong Chang in the human realm, Zhong's words reminded Wu Wan all the time.
If Wu Wan hadn't asked Zhong Na a few questions after thinking about it, he might have been misled by the old god's words now, thinking that the 'Dao of Heaven' would be the culprit behind the collapse of heaven and earth.
The timelines that Zhong deduced and even experienced were actually 'control groups'.
The result of the comparison is that whether there is the way of heaven, whether there is heaven and the east emperor, it will not affect the end of heaven and earth at that moment.
But Wu Wan now wants to get all the information held by these old gods to see if the old gods know the secret behind the "inevitable end" of the world.
This is also the main purpose of Wu Wang rushing to the Ruins of Kunlun.
Wu Huan suddenly asked: "Why does Heaven want to control heaven and earth?"
The old god replied: "How do you know that after the Heavenly Dao generates consciousness, it will not control the heaven and the earth?"
"If the way of heaven produces consciousness, it is also the consciousness produced by the influence of me or living beings."
Wu Wang said slowly:
"I know you are afraid of the will of heaven and earth, but does this world itself already have a consciousness that we cannot understand?
Furthermore, can all living beings in heaven and earth be counted as the manifestation of the will of this world?
And, most importantly, if the will of heaven and earth is born, will it inevitably destroy heaven and earth? "
The old gods thought for themselves.
Soon an old god shook his head slightly and explained in a gentle voice:
“If heaven and earth produce a consciousness that we cannot understand, then this consciousness is incompatible with us, and heaven and earth themselves are chaotic and disordered.
If we don't interfere with this world, it will evolve on its own.
We have made deductions and found that if the original gods were not produced, the heaven and earth would be bare, with only earth, wind, air, water, and fire. Now most of the avenues are the most original avenues, that is, basic rules.
Then this world will gradually disintegrate and sink into the void after a long period of existence.
There may have been many heavens and earths that were born like this and then died like this. Time ran through it all, but the time was not given meaning.
The will of heaven and earth that we fear is actually the world itself learning to think. How would it view these creatures residing in it?
It should be cleaned off.
For heaven and earth, it seems best to be initially bare and undisturbed by consciousness other than one's own will. "
Yun Zhongjun was thinking thoughtfully.
There was deep disappointment in Wu Wan's eyes.
These old gods... although powerful, are not the answer I want at all.
The will of heaven and earth they talk about is more like a living being or a god who has replaced his body with this world.
Never break away from the word 'self'.
"That's not the answer I'm looking for."
Wu Huan shook his head and asked directly: "What do you think of the future disasters in the world?"
The old gods looked at Wu Wan with mostly normal expressions.
An old god asked: "Donghuang is asking, who will replace you in the future?"
"No," Wu Wang said, "I'm asking whether there are hidden dangers in this world that may cause it to collapse at some point in the future."
"This is impossible."
The man directly in front said calmly:
"This world is already extremely stable, and the Heavenly Dao you created has given it an additional layer of protection. The Dao is invisible and infinite and will continue to be stable."
An old god said: "Unless there is a power that can crush the natural enemies of the wilderness, and this power suddenly goes out of control."
"Is it possible that this power exists in the void," Wu Wang asked, "in a form that we cannot understand?"
The forty-nine old gods had different expressions, and then began to discuss in low voices.
Soon, they gave an accurate answer:
"Based on all the knowledge we have in the First Age of Gods, we can tell you responsibly that void is void and there is no strange energy."
“This ultimate question of heaven and earth can be understood as the relationship between heaven and earth and void, or how heaven and earth were born.”
"That's all. The answers you gave me made me roughly understand."
Wu Wang sighed:
"The destruction of the First Age of Gods, as you explained very clearly last time, is that all consciousnesses are interconnected and lies are abandoned, and then all consciousnesses gradually lose their vitality.
At that time you said, Heaven and earth are dead.
In fact, it is not the case. It is just that those consciousnesses belonging to the first generation of gods went extinct after the union, and you are the last survivors.
Brother, do you have anything else to ask? "
"Your Majesty, I have a question to ask the old gods."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhongjun bowed his hands and saluted, then walked forward slowly and said with a smile:
"I, Qishen, may be far less qualified than you all, so I shouldn't talk nonsense, but I'm still a little curious.
The Second Age of Gods was extremely barren at first, and the great avenues gave rise to spirituality, and the spirituality of the avenues became the first gods of the Second Age of Gods. The Third God King, Zhulong, Di Kuang, Nuwa, etc. were all born in the early days of the Second Age of Gods. Birth.
This includes minor gods as well.
My question is actually very simple. I just want to know, what have you done to the world?
Why is the Second Age of Gods so barren and the world is a desert? It was as if someone had exhausted all the spiritual energy in this world, and there were traces of the war everywhere. "
A group of old gods stared at Yun Zhongjun.
"Yes," the man said slowly, "we had differences, and the consciousness of the Communist Alliance divided again, and finally a war broke out, leading to the destruction of the first generation of gods.
This is simply the process of death, and we do not lie about it, but omit appropriately. "
Yun Zhongjun nodded and said: "So I roughly understand that the Second Age of Gods was actually built on the ruins of the First Age of Gods. Most of the gods in the Second Age of Gods are the second batch of births of their respective avenues. The spirit of the great road."
"Qi Shen can understand it this way."
"I'm done asking, Your Majesty."
Yun Zhongjun took a half step back, his eyelids drooped, and said calmly: "If these guys want the power of supervision from Heaven, they must not give it to them. They have already messed up once."
"Qi Shen!"
"Donghuang, you came here with sincerity today? Why do you always embarrass us!"
"Sincerity?" Wu said with a smile, "I was really sincere before I came here. Although it is impossible to give you the authority of heaven, I can give you some honors and some substantial benefits.
But I didn't expect that when I came, I heard such a conversation through Heaven. "
He tapped his hand lightly, and a ball of golden light bloomed, and a voice that was all too familiar to these forty-nine old gods came from within.
It’s their voices:
"It is impossible for Donghuang to hand over the leadership of Tiandao to us easily."
"The Way of Heaven is a great idea. Why didn't we come up with this nearly perfect order and rule back then?"
"Unfortunately, the process of him unfolding the way of heaven was too short, and we can't do anything more."
"Use the formation to trap Donghuang and make him hand over the law of heaven."
"We control the Qiankun Avenue of the old world, and using this avenue to suppress it is enough to trap Donghuang."
"Or, there can be other ways."
"Seize the body? Or assimilate?"
"It is easy to fail to seize the body, but assimilation can, let him become a part of us, and assimilate his control of the way of heaven into our control of the way of heaven."
"With the structure of Heavenly Dao and our accumulation, we may really be able to construct an order that will last forever."
…
Those words stopped abruptly, and Wu Wan crushed the golden light.
There was a bit of helplessness in his eyes: "Assimilation? Why don't you guys take action?"
The faces of the old gods were all expressions of indifference.
"Why didn't you discuss this matter with me?"
Queen Mother Xi suddenly spoke, and her closed eyes opened again, "I am the guardian of the times, and now order is beneficial to the world."
The man in front of Wu Wang said calmly: "Only by controlling the way of heaven in our hands can we prevent this world from taking another detour."
"Senior Queen Mother Xi, doesn't she know?"
Wu smiled and said, "That would be perfect."
"Your Majesty Dong Huang," Queen Mother Xi had stood up, "They must have misunderstood. I think..."
Wu Wang raised his palms to stop the Queen Mother of the West from speaking.
Two gleams of light flashed in his eyes, but still with a bit of a smile, he said slowly:
"Everyone, please allow me to show you one of the great powers of Heaven, or in other words, a small magical power of mine."
Snapped!
Wu Wan snapped his fingers, and a soft fairy light surged out around him, but this fairy light condensed into a 'Wu Wan' dressed in white, and slowly rose into the air.
A six-pointed star appeared on the forehead of Wu Wan, who was dressed in white.
"I used the merits of Heaven to condense an incarnation. This incarnation can extract the avenue currently controlled by Heaven and pour it into it, and temporarily have control of this avenue.
Note that here is control, which can also be understood as that I can control these avenues at will through the way of heaven. "
Wu Wang raised his eyebrows: "It just so happens that I got an interesting road in Yu Yuan before. This road..."
Wu Wang in white suddenly opened his eyes, and layers of treasure wheels appeared behind him. The strong pressure of the avenue suppressed the entire audience, and there seemed to be a dense gray air in the center of the wheel. One of his vertical eyes suddenly opened. Open, eyes swaying from side to side.
The reincarnation path of the former Netherworld King!
The old gods suddenly showed discomfort, and the little old gods even subconsciously turned back to avoid the gaze with vertical eyes.
Wu Wan's laughter came again, and then the four words "this avenue" were said one by one:
"Tianke against remnant souls, ghosts, and disembodied consciousness."
