The practice of the middle stage of Mahayana has been completed.
The next step is to usurp the authority of Heavenly Dao and officially enter the realm of "I am the Dao".
It's just that... now is not the right time to take this step.
The Holy Emperor of Dayu destroyed the world and attained enlightenment. This was the will of the "Lord," and it was a destined necessity. With Xu Ke's current strength, he could not change this at all.
If we take the final step now and replace the way of heaven with Xu Ke's own way, then... the Holy Emperor Dayu will destroy the world and realize his way, and the way to be eradicated will become Xu Ke's.
This is completely asking for death!
What's more, Xu Ke may not even wait until the Holy Emperor Dayu attains enlightenment. When Xu Ke takes the final step to replace the way of heaven, he will suffer a devastating blow from the "Lord".
Under the current circumstances, Xu Ke simply cannot take the final step of "enlightenment".
It’s better to follow Tiandao’s planned route and prepare to be Tiandao’s father with peace of mind!
When the Holy Emperor Dayu destroyed the way of heaven and realized the way of destruction, Xu Ke could take the final step to reshape the way of heaven with his own way.
This is dangerous!
In addition to worrying about "transforming into the Tao", losing self-awareness, and completely becoming the rules of heaven, you also need to worry about being attacked by the Holy Emperor of Dayu, or even attacked by the "Lord".
From the perspective of Holy Emperor Dayu, destroying the Way of Heaven twice in a row will allow him to go further on the Way of Destruction and gain a deeper understanding of the Way of Destruction.
Anyway, it has already been destroyed once, and there will be greater gains if it is destroyed again, so why not do it?
As for the "Lord", he definitely didn't want to expose his identity or let anyone know about it by conducting experiments in such a secretive manner.
Killing someone and silencing them is not the most convenient way to keep it secret?
So...it's very dangerous! It's like jumping sideways repeatedly on the verge of death!
If there was only Holy Emperor Dayu, the problem wouldn't be big. The clones were not just for fun.
Gui Yuanzi, Hunyuanzi and Shenjizi were all able to withstand the attack of Holy Emperor Dayu when Xu Ke became enlightened.
The most critical issue is "Honor the Lord".
The "Lord" is too strong and cannot be resisted at all. The only way... is to rely on Gouzi.
Jiuyou Yaobo, we are old friends, help me stop the "Lord", isn't it difficult?
Even if you don't want to fight with the "Lord", if you shout at the top of your lungs, "Someone is doing chaos experiments here", causing the bosses in the upper world to watch, the "Lord" will definitely have no choice but to run away.
After all, if you do something secretly, you definitely don’t want others to know about it.
Alas, I still suffered the loss of not having a backstage.
Xu Ke let out a long sigh, feeling a little depressed.
"My dogs all have a backing, but I don't have a backing. Is there any justice here?"
Without a backstage, we can only survive and not waste away.
Now...continue to lay a solid foundation and continue to prepare to become "Heaven's Father"!
At least you should avoid "transforming the Tao", replace the Tao of Heaven with your own Tao in the shortest possible time, and then reshape the Tao of Heaven.
In addition... several major incarnations also need to be upgraded.
When taking the last step of "enlightenment", several major incarnations must also become enlightened together, otherwise they will not be able to stop the Holy Emperor Dayu.
As soon as the thought came to mind, Xu Ke connected with Gui Yuanzi through mind contact, and first received information from the outside world.
"What? The heroes of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty were competing for a deer, and the Marquis of Annan was suppressed and beaten by others. He couldn't leave the Annan Kingdom at all?"
"The Holy Emperor of Dayu is hiding in Jade Capital City, staying in seclusion, ignoring worldly affairs, just trying to achieve enlightenment as soon as possible?"
"You also worked as an assassin and helped An Nanhou kill the rebellious general of Longxiang Army?"
After receiving this news, Xu Ke was stunned for a moment and then shook his head.
An Nanhou... is really not good at it!
The cultivation level in the integration stage is not bad at all. Coupled with the original Void Return masters from the Consciousness Only Sect, such as Du Mingyuan, there is no shortage of manpower.
He has strength, manpower, and status. He is countless times better than others who "start with a bowl", but he still behaves like this.
This is a question of ability.
It may be okay to be a mediocre and conservative king. If he wants to conquer the world with his own hands, then he is not the material at all.
As for why Holy Emperor Dayu didn't take action to pacify the world, it must be because he was really about to attain enlightenment.
The current state of Holy Emperor Dayu should only be in the Mahayana stage, and he has not yet taken the final step.
His way of destruction is to directly collapse the law of heaven, destroy the order, and confront the law of heaven head-on.
This method also does not require entering the period of transcending tribulation. The destruction of Heaven's Dao will inevitably trigger a violent counterattack by Heaven's Dao, which itself is transcending tribulation.
If it weren't for "someone above", Holy Emperor Dayu wouldn't even be able to survive the "human calamity".
With Xu Ke's current realm and strength, together with several major incarnations, he can directly enter Yujing and kill Holy Emperor Dayu on the spot.
But...can't kill.
Once the Holy Emperor Dayu was killed, the Lord was furious and with a "pop", the whole world was gone.
Alas, no matter which world you are in, it is difficult to get along without a backstage!
Turning his head to look in the direction of the main hall of the cave mansion, Hunyuanzi and Shenjizi joined forces and were still deducing and analyzing the void movement formation.
Is there any gain...I can’t say there isn’t any.
At least by analyzing the Void Movement Formation, several runes were decoded from the "Golden Book of Immortal Talisman" that was exchanged from the Peach Blossom Demon Saint.
Other gains are completely gone.
The void movement formation is an immortal-level formation. The Golden Book of Immortal Talismans is also an immortal-level talisman. Even with Xu Ke's profound knowledge, he still couldn't analyze the specific principles.
This must involve a higher level of spiritual power use and a higher level of use of the rules of the great road.
If you have not reached the level of becoming an immortal, you cannot understand or use it at all.
The choice of running away can no longer be carried out.
Forget it, let’s just be “God’s father”!
Xu Ke walked into the main hall and told Hunyuanzi: "Activate the cave array, connect to the blue water pool, and cooperate with the divine machine to teleport the dog here."
"clear."
Hunyuanzi nodded in agreement, waved his hand to close the void moving array, and activated the teleportation array to connect to the Bishuitan altar.
With a flash of inspiration in the space, Gouzi stepped out of the teleportation array and arrived at Cangmingyuan Cave.
"Woof woof! Master, what do you want from me?"
The dog was wagging its tail and circling Xu Ke.
"I'll improve your cultivation."
Xu Ke reached out and touched Gouzi's head, "Let's see if we can contact Jiuyou Yaobo. Your master... lacks a backing! Now is a time of life and death. If you are not careful, everyone will die."
"Woof woof! I understand. Master, you can do whatever you want."
Gouzi nodded towards Xu Ke.
"follow me!"
Xu Ke took Gouzi out of the main hall and came to the meditation room in the back hall.
After activating the magic circle and transforming it into chaotic demonic energy, Xu Ke stretched out his hand and pressed it on Gouzi's head.
Gouzi practices the demon body cultivation method of the Hunyuan Yiqi Sutra. When he reaches the realm of Mahayana, he can no longer follow the complete Tao of Taichu, and can only follow the "Path of Change."
The form of the beginning, the way of change.
All life forms, all material forms, all spiritual forms in this world, dogs can all be transformed.
Apart from not being able to derive the rules of the Great Dao and not being able to become the "father of the way of heaven", he is very tyrannical in other aspects.
Although it is only a part of Taichu Avenue, it is still ridiculously powerful.
"Calm your mind and let it begin."
With a thought, Xu Ke's mind connected with the Dao. His own Dao blended with the rules of the heavenly Dao and became completely integrated.
At this moment, Xu Ke, except that he has not usurped the authority of Heavenly Dao and replaced Heavenly Dao, has the same power as the rules of Heavenly Dao.
Xu Ke had already done the same operation once before when Gouzi was promoted to merge.
At this moment, Xu Ke became even more comfortable doing things like "spurring others' efforts". This is because Xu Ke's cultivation level is higher and he has greater authority to control the rules of heaven.
It's a pity... This should be the last time that Gouzi tries to undermine his own strength.
Gouzi's original state was slightly inferior to that of Holy Emperor Dayu. At most, he was only in the Mahayana stage, and was still a little short of enlightenment.
This time, Gouzi's cultivation has been upgraded to Mahayana. All of Gouzi's "potential" has been exhausted. If he wants to go further, he can only rely on Gouzi to survive the time.
"Evolution from the beginning, the great road is unified, disease!"
After reciting the mantra, Xu Ke drove the power of the laws of heaven and poured the way of change of the "original shape" into Gouzi's body.
The endless rules of the avenue are pouring in like the Milky Way pouring down, and the huge amount of information makes the dog roll his eyes.
Fortunately, Xu Ke used the method of "talking to others" to sort out the information for Gouzi, so that Gouzi was not overwhelmed by the huge amount of information.
Of course, this is because Gouzi has this foundation. He originally had the strength of the Mahayana stage, but now he is just recovering his strength.
If someone without this kind of foundation was hit by such a huge information, his soul would be shattered and his soul would be shattered on the spot.
This is also the reason why Xu Ke cannot "reinforce" others in the Cangmang Immortal Alliance.
Without the foundation of Gouzi, if you operate like this, it will not improve your cultivation, but use torture to kill people.
After Xu Ke sorted it out, various information about the "way of change" and even Xu Ke's own "internship" experience gradually integrated into Gouzi's mind.
"Huh...huh..."
Gouzi stuck out his tongue and gasped, "Master, I almost died!"
Even if Gouzi was once a Mahayana person, receiving such a terrifying amount of information would still almost cause his brain to "break down."
"Calm your mind, calm down, and take care of yourself."
Xu Ke told Gouzi: "The most difficult part has been completed. Next, you only need to merge the great ways and you can be promoted to Mahayana."
"OK."
Gouzi nodded, lay down on the ground, calmed down, and adjusted his body and mind.
After Gouzi recovered, Xu Ke stretched out his hand and patted Gouzi's head, pulling the "path of change" in the rules of the avenue, and shouted at Gouzi: "It's now! Heaven and man interact, and the avenues merge!"
There was a "boom", as if the whole world was resonating.
Gouzi took the form of the original, the way of change, blended with the rules of heaven, and entered a state of "sympathy between heaven and man".
Heaven and man interact with each other, and the avenues blend together. Gouzi's body, spiritual power and soul are all undergoing drastic changes, and his life form is sublimating rapidly.
Various visions flashed around Gouzi. The sun, moon, stars, mountains and rivers, everything in the heaven and earth, all living beings in the world... all kinds of scenes flashed incessantly.
The dog's form is also constantly changing, constantly turning into various objects and creatures.
From the essence of life, Gouzi is no longer a simple creature, but has become a special life that encompasses all material forms, all life forms, and all spiritual forms.
If we insist on classifying it into categories, Gouzi has become the "Son of Taichu" and a unique creature "Hunyuan Celestial Demon" originating from Taichu.
This is the culmination of the demon body training technique of the Hunyuan Yiqi Sutra - the "Heavenly Demon Body Refining Method".
If one day, Xu Ke can become the real "prime" of the entire endless void, then Gouzi's life level will be ridiculously high and he will become an "innate divine beast".
"It's done!"
After Gouzi returned to his original form as a black dog, the upgrade of "reinforcing the growth of young people" has been successfully completed, and Gouzi has officially entered the Mahayana period.
Now Gouzi has recovered to the state of cultivation before being beaten stupid by Holy Emperor Dayu. In terms of strength, he is definitely many times stronger than before.
No matter which path Gouzi took in the past, it will definitely not be as good as the "original shape, the way of change" now.
"Gouzi, have you sensed the Nine Nether Sea of Blood? Have you sensed a being with the same origin as you?"
After Gouzi's upgrade was completed, Xu Ke quickly asked Gouzi.
"No!"
Gouzi shook his head, "I can't sense the Nine Nether Blood Sea. As for the existence that has the same origin as me... there are only Master and the incarnation of Master."
Okay, sure enough it still doesn’t work.
Xu Ke shook his head, "Okay, you adjust your breath first to stabilize your state."
After sending the dog out, Xu Ke sighed secretly. Sure enough, Jiuyou Yaobo still couldn't be contacted.
This is not too surprising. Since the "Lord" has hidden himself from this world, it is naturally not easy to contact him.
After Xu Ke was promoted, he was also unable to contact the "Dao Lord of Dayan" who was lost in the endless void.
This is not only because the distance is too far, but also the reason why the Lord has hidden this world.
It seems that in order to restore "communication", we can only follow the original plan. At the moment when Holy Emperor Dayu attains enlightenment, the violent counterattack of the rules of heaven and earth will make it possible to amplify the "communication signal" and contact Jiuyou Yao Bo.
This is all we can do for the time being. The next step is to upgrade all the incarnations to Mahayana.
——
Gouzi upgraded and officially entered the Mahayana period, completely changing his life form and becoming the "Son of the Beginning".
When Gouzi was promoted, a huge black dog suddenly opened his eyes in the Nine Nether Blood Sea.
"Emperor, what's wrong?"
Sitting cross-legged on a giant "Nine Nether Blood Lotus" in the sea of blood, Daojun Dayan, who was practicing Qigong, saw Jiuyou Yaobo's strange movements and asked quickly.
"I suddenly had a sudden impulse, and I felt like... I had completely lost an avatar."
Jiuyou Yaobo blinked his eyes, thought for a while, and then shook his head, "Forget it, maybe he died? It shouldn't be important."
"All right!"
Dayan Daojun said no more, closed his eyes and continued to practice.
In this world filled with the energy of the Nine Netherworlds and the demonic energy of the Blood Sea, Dao Lord Dayan can only practice with the energy of the Nine Netherworlds and the demonic energy of the Blood Sea.
But...it doesn't matter.
Whether it is the Qi of the Nine Netherworlds or the Demonic Qi of the Blood Sea, they all originate from the Absolute Beginning and can be returned to their origins and transformed into Hunyuan Qi.
It's just... without the main body cheat, the cultivation speed is too slow!
Forget it, just pass the time!
You will be able to find me after your true body attains enlightenment and becomes an immortal. When the time comes, I can let the main body upgrade me, and I can become an immortal directly. (End of chapter)
