Chapter 386 [The Sage Appears, the Dharma Ends]
On the tower of Hangu Pass, Great Sage Yin Xi clapped his hands and smiled, saying: "The purple air came from the east for 30,000 miles, and Hangu Pass has been here for the first time for 5,000 years."
In the Dharma-Ending Age, there are no saints left. This is the result of the last days defeating the saints’ virtues.
However, people can spread the Tao, but the Tao cannot spread people. Therefore, in the beginning of ancient times, there was no one to preach the Tao. It was the ancient ancestors who walked on mountains and rivers, ate plants, looked at the ocean, gazed at the stars, and touched all things before they practiced the Tao.
Although it is the Dharma Ending Age, the Taoist Patriarch has been born. He looks up and down at the heaven and earth, learns from nature, and regards every speck of dust, every blade of grass, every mountain, every river, and all things as scriptures that can be recited. He has blazed a new trail by starting from scratch.
This is the end of fate due to morality.
The saints born in the Dharma-Ending Age are far superior to the saints and sages of other ages, and should be called true men and true saints.
"The mouth and nose are both without ordinary breathing, the real person uses the heels and the ordinary throat, from then on the real and ordinary sides stand, and then it becomes a leak-free body."
Lin Xian walked and sang, his green clothes fluttering. As he stepped onto the top of the mountain, traces of divine power emerged from his body, and wisps of blood and energy soared into the sky like a real dragon. His whole body was dazzling and crystal clear, and his skin was as white as snow, as if it was made of the Nine Heavens Divine Jade. He was like an immortal who did not eat grains, but breathed wind and drank dew, and lived in the Kunlun Fairy Mountain.
The holy power was vast and mighty, surging like the tide, covering billions of miles of mountains and rivers. Countless strange beasts trembled, and that aura made their souls tremble.
Even if he is the king of the way of killing, or the unrivaled strong man who dominates the last days of the law, he can only bow down in worship before such unparalleled demeanor.
After five thousand kalpas, morality is finally seen again!
"Jie Jie Jie..."
It’s just that the laughter of this moral saint is a little bit villainous.
"I have become a saint, and the world should know it!"
Lin Xian laughed wildly, his voice echoing in the sky and resounding throughout Kunlun. He became a saint, he finally became a saint!
The difference between saints and mortals is not just talk. Saints are beyond the scope of humans, and the holy barrier separates the two realms of saint and king into heaven and earth.
Even if one possesses the Seven Prohibitions, they are just ants in front of a saint. This is a huge abyss that will knock all the geniuses who go against the immortals back to the starting point and suppress them to the point of ineffectiveness. Even a semi-saint emperor can only protect himself in front of a saint.
At this point in time, is there a semi-saint emperor?
The answer is no, not one!
Yin Tiande, the first person to trigger the divine ban, was barely at the third level of the Immortal Realm. He was not even a great king, let alone a half-saint.
From this day on, no one, Ye Fan or Wang Teng, is worth mentioning. The ancient princes are nothing but chickens and dogs in front of the saint and can be crushed to death with just one finger.
Just like the sun shining for eternity, at this moment Lin Xian stood shoulder to shoulder with the saints of all ages. His name would truly go down in history, and all the cultivation world would record his deeds.
"hold head high!"
As Lin Xian's laughter echoed, thousands of dragon veins roared. Every mountain seemed to have life, with stone dragon scales spread out on its body, and even shining divine light in its eyes.
The dragon veins rolled back the divine liquid from the fairy pool, swallowed up the ten thousand feet of fairy light, and fed all the essence back. The Dharma Ending Age that had plagued the earth's cultivation world for many years came to an end on this day, and the golden age finally arrived.
All the cultivators on Earth suddenly turned their heads and looked towards the direction of Kunlun Mountain. Since nine years ago, the spiritual energy of the ancient star had begun to increase little by little, just like climbing a hill, making slow progress, but now it has increased suddenly, as exaggerated as jumping from a small hill to Mount Everest.
"The spiritual energy has increased by dozens of times?" An old monk with white hair cried with joy and shouted: "The ancient times are coming, the golden age of competition among various religions and the manifestation of great powers is coming, and becoming a saint is no longer a dream!"
When a sage appears, the Dharma ends.
Lin Xian took a step forward and left Kunlun Immortal Mountain. Although the immortal land could no longer produce the divine liquid, he had already engraved the terrain of the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains on his body. He himself was the trend of heaven and earth, and his flesh and blood was the sun, the moon, and the universe. Today he would give birth to an immortal treasure!
One hundred days to build the foundation, ten months to form the golden elixir, three years to form the Nascent Soul, nine years to face the wall, and at this moment, one will achieve the Tao fruit.
The saint's tribulation is extraordinary. Lin Xian used the Great Void Technique to tear open the nodes of the universe, crossed one star field after another, and finally came to a cold and desolate cosmic sky with only dead stars.
"Boom!"
The endless sea of thunder swept across the vast star field, swallowing up Lin Xian. Thunder flashed one after another, shattering countless planets, truly destroying the world.
This was just the appetizer of the saint's great calamity, which was enough to tear the holy body apart, kill countless ancestral kings, and chop Lin Xian into pieces and reassemble him. If he had not been proficient in the art of immortality of the gods, knew the secret of the word "zhe", and could be reborn with a drop of blood, he would have been chopped to death.
"Pictures coming!"
Lin Xian sacrificed his own innate cosmic map, imprinted with traces of heavenly tribulation, and explored the origin of the universe. He wanted to evolve the fairyland in his body and form a world of his own. Naturally, he could not do without the core mystery of heavenly tribulation, which was both destruction and vitality. The wonder of longevity was bred in thunder tribulation, which must not be ignored.
All the Yin-Yang divine thunder and the Five Elements divine thunder fell down at this moment. Lin Xian recited the immortal scriptures and evolved the hundreds of emperor characters obtained from the dragon coffin into the innate Tao diagram.
This is the secret method left by Emperor Huangtian, and it is the foundation for evolving the Immortal Realm. The reason why Emperor Qing failed to evolve the Immortal Realm may be because he lacked this thing.
Bolts of lightning fell one after another, smashing the Dao diagram into pieces. Not only did he need to refine the emperor's talisman of the fairyland, but he also needed to integrate it into the rules of the human universe.
There is death because there are life, there are immortals because there are mortals, this is complete. The Taoist scriptures record that one tool can break all laws, and this is exactly the moment.
"Refine the two realms and ascend to immortality!"
Lin Xiandao shouted, wanting to use the help of the universe to make the innate Dao diagram give rise to intelligence. The emperor's weapon is the continuation of the emperor's life and can give birth to gods. It evolved from the realm of saints.
Holy weapons begin to possess faint intelligence, imperial weapons have divine power, and immortal weapons are equivalent to a living cultivator.
It should not be called a fairy weapon, but a fairy weapon.
The Dao Diagram of the Universe accepts all comers, devours everything in the universe, evolves its own patterns, and attempts to manifest a real, vast universe. However, this act of stealing in the past seems to have angered the gods, and brought down an even greater calamity.
Lin Xian's body was shattered and even his blood was almost wiped out. The secret of rebirth by dripping blood was about to become ineffective, but fortunately he still had a backup plan.
"How can I, Lin, rely on just one Nine Secrets to do things in my life?"
"Eat the powerful medicine, drink the divine liquid, and swallow the immortal pill!"
Lin Xian had a Taoist diagram on his head and was eating and drinking voraciously in the sea of thunder. He poured all the real medicine king that was seventy or eighty thousand years old, the Kunlun immortal liquid from the forbidden area, and the third or fourth level immortal pills into his mouth. Then he evolved into the form of Fuxi, with a human head and a dragon body, and was tormented in the sea of thunder, just like forging a golden body in the Bagua furnace.
These immortal treasures are enough for the saints to extend their lifespan for another thousand years. The vast vitality is no less than the sea of thunder, and it gathers into an ocean of life in the wheel sea universe.
"The Way of Heaven, the Way of Man, are all my ways..."
The innate Dao diagram vibrated, evolving into forty-nine innate and three thousand acquired order divine chains, bathing in boundless lightning and emitting inviolable holy energy, one wisp after another, crushing the eternal blue sky.
The so-called innate is like thunder, yin and yang, and the way of chaos. The so-called acquired is like swords, killing, and rebirth.
The Xiantian Dao Diagram transformed into a holy weapon one step ahead of schedule and completed the final transformation. It dropped thousands of chaotic auras, as if it was blessed by a canopy and was immune to all kinds of attacks.
Lin Xian held a sacred weapon on his head with deep eyes. He let the lightning pour down on him. His soul was bright between his eyebrows. He also began his final transformation, verifying his own path under the heavenly calamity.
Use your body as a seed, create the infallible golden elixir, manifest the immortal realm, and develop longevity!
This is his first and most crucial step in embarking on his own path to becoming an immortal and evolving the method of longevity. Only when this method is accomplished can there be follow-up.
"The vast Kunlun Mountains, where dragons and tigers meet, are used as tools and medicines, and the golden elixir path..."
Lin Xian recited immortal scriptures and formed a great elixir in his body. The so-called golden elixir is not just a crystallization of energy. Gold means indestructible, and elixir means perfect and flawless.
The so-called golden elixir refers to a body that becomes leak-free and no longer transmits energy to the outside world. The essence, energy and spirit are sealed within the body, independent of the universe, forming an isolated system of its own.
Heaven's will cuts itself with a sword, so the matter of immortality no longer exists. If one wants to pretend to be an immortal, one must deceive Heaven's will and avoid Heaven's sword.
Just like the stone fetus of the Holy Spirit, it is born and raised by nature. Before it is born, it will not suffer any loss of lifespan. Instead, it will receive the blessing of the creation of heaven, earth and the universe.
The way of heaven is to reduce the surplus and make up for the deficiency, and the way of man is to reduce the deficiency and make up for the surplus.
Cultivation is meant to go against the will of heaven, but blindly going against it will only lead to a dead end. Going along the same path will make you an ordinary person, going against the will of heaven will make you an immortal. It's just a matter of twists and turns in the middle.
Lin Xian turned into a golden elixir, like the embryo of the human race's holy spirit. The nine orifices merged into one, manifesting the fairyland in the body, floating in the void, silently, but it was the greatest declaration.
The great elephant is invisible, the great sound is silent, and the evolution at this moment is like Lin Xian shouting to the universe, declaring to God: "Dad, open your eyes, I am the most handsome boy!"
"Tian Yi, we are family, don't chop me down!"
The heavenly calamity is merciless and is the greatest manifestation of heaven's will. If one can deceive the heavenly calamity, it proves the success of Taoism.
The originally mighty heavenly calamity paused for a moment, as if it was a little confused, covering the galaxy in all directions, looking for someone to survive the calamity.
Where is my Tribulation Survivor? Where is my Tribulation Survivor who is so big! Where did he go?!
It jumps out of the Three Realms and is not within the Five Elements. It is like a reborn holy spirit, with a flawless golden elixir. Within the Wheel Sea Universe, the infinite life essence is like a vast ocean, as if it is nurturing something, constantly reorganizing, constantly being reborn, and constantly changing.
Finally, it compressed a piece of... long life matter!
"Boom!"
The appearance of the long-lived matter instantly caused a violent heavenly calamity. The will of heaven was revealed, and it cut down mercilessly with a knife. How could an old hen like you pretend to be a phoenix?
It is so shameless for an old human monk to pretend to be a Holy Spirit cub.
"How can we fail at the last glimmer of hope?"
Lin Xian roared, and his nine orifices merged into one, operating eighty-nine times, expanding with the wind, traveling through the heavenly tribulation, evolving into various immortal spirits and mythical beasts. Sometimes he was Kunpeng spreading his wings over the Chaos Sea, and sometimes he turned into Suzaku and struck across the Three Thousand Worlds... After experiencing seventy-two changes like this, even the heavenly tribulation was confused and couldn't figure out who it was striking.
The Xiantian Dao diagram moved, and taking advantage of the heavenly tribulation's inattention, it swallowed up the vast and endless sea of thunder, turning it into a thunder pool in the universe diagram. After the silence of death, the lightning finally stopped showing up.
He really succeeded!
The first, most critical step on the road to immortality was taken, and a ray of immortal energy was born.
Although this is extremely difficult, it is true.
After thousands of years of hard practice, one can produce a trace of immortal substance, but it can only extend one's life for one year. Even if one practices for ten thousand years, it can only extend one's life by ten years. The investment and return are not proportional, but it is a wonderful start.
Now it is one year for one thousand years, but in the future, if the realm rises further and the cultivation level becomes higher, maybe it will be possible to exchange one hundred years for one year, or even one year for one year. The energy consumption and energy production will form a one-to-one ratio, with no increase or decrease. This is the beginning of immortality!
When the longevity substances in the body can not only provide for oneself but also enable others to have longevity, that is the true evolution of a miniature fairyland and a great supernatural power at the level of the fairy king!
"Master Dao, I am done!"
Lin Xian laughed loudly, feeling extremely proud. He had taken the first step in his long journey of thousands of miles. He saw hope and created his own path, allowing him to stand shoulder to shoulder with the saints.
However, his happiness did not last long, as he turned to sorrow.
The saint's tribulation is not that simple. The thunder tribulation is just a piece of cake. The real disaster is still to come.
A mighty aura surged, covering the sky and the earth, and an ancient emperor emerged, more real than any previous heavenly tribulation.
"Fuck! I'm not even going to follow the path of becoming a proud emperor's son and becoming a saint early. Why is this damn Emperor Shadow still chasing after me?!"
Lin Xian's expression changed, and as he looked at the great emperor in the distance, a sense of foreboding emerged in his heart.
The man who came was tall and strong, with loose black hair. He looked no different from the human emperor. His eyes were deep, and he could see through the years and the ages. However, he was not any of the young emperors that Lin Xian knew.
His appearance instantly made the heaven, earth and universe silent, and there was an invincible and overwhelming aura.
From ancient times to the present and from the future, I am the most respected. All other ways become nothing. I suppress the enemies of the world. This is what an emperor is!
"boom!"
Lin Xian took the lead in attacking, using the True Dragon Technique to transform into a perfect true dragon and attack, conquering the world with his fist.
The great emperor opposite raised his eyebrows, and used the same True Dragon Technique, and with a casual press, he knocked Lin Xian away.
"how is this possible?"
Lin Xian was shocked. Even the young emperor couldn't defeat him like this. The emperor shadow opposite him didn't trigger the divine ban, so how could this happen?
Lin Xian didn't believe it and attacked again, but was defeated in the same move.
However, this time, Lin Xian sensed a familiar aura from the emperor.
"The original true solution?!"
Lin Xian's expression changed drastically. How could he not know who the visitor was? Damn it, the Immortal Emperor is also an emperor, right?
Why the hell don’t you evolve Emperor Huang Tian as well.
"Destroy all living things." The emperor on the opposite side casually swung his sword, and the sword energy traveled billions of miles, reaching everywhere and killing everything, as if the sea of the world had been split open.
"One breath becomes three selves!"
Rumble, another emperor shadow appeared, but it did not attack Lin Xian, but attacked the dark emperor shadow. One shadow turned into four shadows, representing the past, future and present.
"Huang Taishang, right? Could it be that there are Ye Yuanshi and Chu Lingbao as well?"
"The most ancient primordial being, the source of all things, the most precious spiritual treasure in the world."
Lin Xian's mouth twitched, and then he was forced to be involved in the battle between the two emperors. While opening the Great Closure, he witnessed the birth and death of the universe. It was not until the power of the heavenly calamity dissipated that he fell miserably out of the battlefield.
He sat cross-legged in the universe, absorbing the most original power. This was a method only available to the Holy King, but he had the elixir of immortality in his body, which he could also borrow.
Reaching the realm of a saint is a qualitative leap, and many mysterious things are revealed.
The secret of the elixir of immortality and the power of the imperial weapons can be borrowed to unleash their true power.
After crossing the galaxy of the universe for three days and three nights, Lin Xian inhaled and exhaled starlight and moonlight, and his divine power accumulated to a limit. His black hair was disheveled and his immortal body was crystal clear. He pushed open one door after another, and his life potential was flourishing, but not a single bit was leaked.
The true great perfection, the true saint, is far from being comparable to a half-saint.
Lin Xian took a step forward, made a leap, flew across a star field, and came to a place filled with lunar power. He picked eighteen moons, refined them into a bracelet, and prepared to go back and give it to Jiang Tingting.
Then he shattered several Death Stars, took out the sacred iron from the core of the earth, and refined a small purple bell.
Finally, he stepped into several stars to search for treasure. The scorching sun could no longer hurt Lin Xian.
The Sun Star is very large, with several stars orbiting around it. Lin Xian explored it for half a month and found a Nine Yang Magic Grass.
Although there are only six leaves, it produces nine fruits, like little suns hanging in the sky.
“What good luck.”
Lin Xian sighed, many Saint Kings may not be able to find one even if they search among tens of millions of sun stars. This is a supreme divine object for body refining and is suitable for the sun body.
Holding the sun and the moon in one's hands and picking the stars is the way of a saint, and it is not just a virtual gesture, but a real experience.
Performing the Four Steps to Heaven, Lin Xian stepped on the nodes of the universe and flew back to Earth, but he stopped in front of Hangu Pass, because almost all the great saints and quasi-emperors who had attained enlightenment in Kunlun Mountain in recent years had arrived.
"Greetings to all the seniors." Lin Xian stepped into Hangu Pass, bowed, and greeted the Great Sage Yin Xi. However, several great saints from the demon clan turned sideways and only accepted half of the bow.
"You have become a saint and are one of our generation. You can just call us fellow Taoist." Daxia Dragon Bird said calmly. The other demon gods also nodded, without being arrogant.
Among the saints under Laozi, except for the Quasi-Emperor Supreme, who else dares to be one generation higher than him? Doesn’t he see that the Great Sage Yin Xi is watching beside him?
"My junior brother has become a saint, which is a cause for celebration." Great Sage Yin Xi said with a smile, "I can now hand over the prehistoric Taoism to you with peace of mind."
"Brother, are you leaving?" Lin Xian was shocked and asked quickly.
The Great Sage Yin Xi shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter to me. I can stay at Hangu Pass and wait for my teacher to return. It is Senior Di Yu who wants to leave."
"I, Sakyamuni, the two emperors Yan and Huang, and four fellow Taoists are traveling through the starry sky to find the Zhuxian Sword. Feixian Star lacks a great saint, so a quasi-emperor is in charge." Emperor Yu said calmly, "There's news from there that the Kunlun survivors are causing trouble again. After we deal with them, some of the Qi Refiners will return to the ancient star of Honghuang."
It turned out that they were going back to Feixian Star. Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at the peerless demon gods: "Brothers, are you also going to Feixian Star?"
"We are not going to Feixian Star." The Silver Snake Demon God sighed and said, "When the demon gets old, it is inevitable that it wants to go home."
Of course, in addition to missing the mother planet, what is more important is that Kunlun Mountain feeds back to the earth, and all the divine liquid for becoming immortals is consumed. In addition, the biggest opportunity, the Green Cauldron, cannot be taken away, so there is no point in staying.
The Human Demon Quasi-Emperor glanced around and said in a deep voice: "You can go, but you must not bring disaster to the world, otherwise..."
Several demon gods shuddered suddenly. The meat of the Crocodile Ancestor was still lying in the Xuanhuang Ding. They swore and vowed that they were only going back temporarily to gather the sons of the mother star, form an army, and then bring it back to the heaven. They had no ulterior motives.
"Since you all are leaving, I will go to other life stars to have a look. I heard that the five-color altar of Ziwei Emperor Star has been set up." Taoist Shanhuang was also eager to make a move, wanting to be free and unrestrained.
"No." The demon old man shook his head.
"Why?" Taoist Shanhuang was stunned.
"You have to come with me." The old demon said calmly, apparently worried about Taoist Shan Huang.
This is a demon suppressed by Sakyamuni. If it is not restrained, there is no telling how it will destroy Ziwei Star.
Quasi-emperors are not as good as great sages. There are only a few of them in heaven. It depends on how strict the situation is.
Of course, Taoist Shan Huang was a smart man, so he naturally understood what the demon meant. However, he also had to save face, so he didn't say it clearly. He said with a flattering face: "If a quasi-emperor like me wants to achieve enlightenment, how can I stay in a small place? I must travel the universe and achieve the supreme Tao heart."
"After thinking about it, I decided not to go to Ziwei Star. I will accompany fellow Taoist Human Demon to explore the starry sky."
As soon as these words were spoken, several demon gods rolled their eyes. It was fine for the human demon to go to the universe to look for opportunities. A quasi-emperor who was six thousand years old was in his prime. In the ancient times, there were emperors who achieved enlightenment at the age of six thousand years old. How could a quasi-emperor who was nearly nine thousand years old and was about to die of old age be looking for any opportunities? You were clearly the human demon's reserve food.
Before leaving, the saints organized another conference to discuss the Dao. This time, Lin Xian finally got to the stage. The only pity was that Emperor Ye was not in the audience to listen to his lecture, so he missed the chance to show off.
The saints expounded their own scriptures, and Lin Xian was no exception, evolving his own path to the golden elixir.
"This kind of life breath has traces of the method of longevity." Emperor Yu commented: "Your life span is very long, at least 7,000 years."
When these words were spoken, several great saints were deeply moved. Seven thousand years, what a concept. Many low-level great saints only have this lifespan.
Several demon gods whose lifespans were about to end asked Lin Xian for the secret of immortality. How did he do it?
"Nothing else, just want to eat you." Lin Xian smiled indifferently.
