Chapter Seventy-One: Oneiroi's Aid
In fact, Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" also said a similar truth, that is, the Tao gives birth to one, one life to two, two to three, and three to all things.
In modern language, Lao Tzu believes that the Tao is the beginning, it is one, life two, so the Tao produces yin and yang, and the yin and yang are combined with each other to form three, thus creating all things in the world.
According to Lao Tzu's theory, Taoists further believe that all things in the universe can be divided into five different things according to their attributes, which are commonly referred to as the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
If Yan Long was able to say such a truth, it meant that he had seen through the essence of the universe, which was exactly the realm that all cultivators wanted to achieve in their ultimate life. Qi Lu didn't understand, but he knew that Yan Long had already understood.
Yan Long suddenly waved his hand, so frightened that Qi Lu hurriedly raised his sword to block. But Yan Long's original intention was not to hurt him, but a big golden character flew out from his fingers, which was a "Qi" word! It flows like water, and then melts into the air.
Yan Long said sharply: "This is the essence of all things, it is both the beginning and the end. If you comprehend this truth, you will be able to reach the highest level of cultivation, the Yuan Qi Realm! ”
Qi Lu stared at Yan Long, suddenly let out a long sigh, and said, "Your Highness's cultivation seems to have reached the peak of the Protoss. ”
Yan Long said, "If you are willing to submit to me, you will not only have happiness and joy, but you will also be able to greatly improve your cultivation. ”
It was indeed a very tempting condition, which was irresistible, but Qi Lu's gaze suddenly dimmed, and he sighed again and said, "But I don't understand what what you said has to do with the mysterious plague?" ”
"Since all things are one, then it is not endless, but has a constant quantity. No matter how things are transformed from one to another, it must be balanced. ”
"Are you saying that the imbalance of yin and yang led to the outbreak of the plague?"
"That's the truth." Yan Long nodded approvingly.
Lao Wu had a calm face beside him and said coldly: "Everyone will say the truth, the problem is that the devil knows whether it is wrong or right. ”
Qi Lu smiled and said, "If he can say such a truth, I am already willing to bow down." ”
Yan Long glanced at Lao Wu with a little disdain, and then said: "If you want to eliminate the plague, there is only one way, and that is to restore the balance of yin and yang. ”
Qi Lu said: "But your own yin and yang are difficult to reconcile, how can you balance the entire universe?" ”
"The imbalance of yin and yang today is all due to the sins created by human beings, who wantonly destroy everything on the earth for their own selfish desires to satisfy that little pitiful benefit! But they were not satisfied, and they wanted to use the power of science and technology to get involved in the universe, but they didn't know that the resulting anger had already polluted the universe......"
"No!" Qi Lu screamed, he looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, in surprise, and suddenly realized Yan Long's true purpose.
"Alas, Lu Wu! The gods who were once full of a sense of justice, brave and fierce, guarded Kunlun like a tiger. Are you now fallen? Has it fallen to the same level as Hou Yi and sided with evil? ”
"No, it's you who are evil, so ruthless that you will wipe out everything that stands in your way!"
"Cold, don't you understand? The only way to save the defiled universe is to destroy everything first, then create a new world, wash away all evil, let the plague disappear completely, and return all beings to the golden age of mythology. ”
Qi Lu said in a trembling voice: "I also long to return to that era, but it must not be achieved at the cost of destroying the present world!" ”
"Why should the gods bear the burden of the evil consequences of mankind? My will is about to penetrate the entire universe, and you cannot stop it! ”
"No problem, but you have to step over my corpse first!" Qi Lujian has become a trick.
"It seems that there is no point in talking to you more, so as you wish, give me a martyr's sacrifice for the old world." Raising his hand, the furious black mang attacked Qi Lu directly, this black mang was more condensed, violent, and blazing than the previous times, as if it was going to devour everything.
Suddenly, the space in front of him was deformed, and Lao Wu opened the enchantment in time before the black mang's attack arrived, but he still couldn't stop Yan Long's powerful power, and this fragile enchantment barely supported for a few seconds before it shattered, and Qi Lu and Lao Wu were both knocked to the ground by the impact of the aftermath.
"Damn, it's too powerful, he really didn't brag, and his current cultivation is probably not even in the eyes of the God King." Old Wu had palpitations, and he was out of breath when he got up from the ground.
"Let's take a gamble!" After speaking, Qi Lu made the first move, he waved the golden rainbow sword and quickly killed Yan Long, the sharp sword covered the sky and the sun, and filled the entire cave like a violent wind.
"Pro, soldiers, fights, all, arrays, columns, fronts, lines!" Lao Wu was not polite, as soon as he came up, it was a big move, and the sword light and sword shadow hit Yan Long in the whistling sound.
"Edict!" Yan Long didn't dodge it at all, and then raised his hand with one hand, and dozens of flowing golden spells suddenly appeared in his palm, and then a golden light emitted a surging attack, directly approaching Qi Lu and Lao Wu's surging attack.
As soon as Qi Lu and Lao Wu's spells hit this light, they let out a screaming sound like a terrible ghost's wail, which was instantly purified by the light and disappeared without a trace.
Sure enough, as Lao Wu said, the enemy is too strong! Qi Lu couldn't help but smash his tongue secretly, and Lao Wu was also stunned behind him, and he had a retreat in his heart.
Qi Lu was not as timid as Lao Wu after all, he was not discouraged by the failure of Fang Cai's attack, but the furiousness and unruliness in his heart were all stimulated, and he only heard him shout: "The golden sword destroys the evil!" Then he turned his sword into thunder and slashed straight away.
Yan Long lightly hooked his hand on the Fuxi qin, and the shaking strings made a beautiful clear sound, Qi Lu's attack was suddenly thwarted, and the electric light disappeared, not to mention, there seemed to be an invisible barrier in front of him that blocked the Jin Hong Sword hard.
"It's too dark and gloomy, and the light is coming quickly. Wind and fire and thunder, all evils dissipate, Edict! ”
Just as Yan Long was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, a spirit rune suddenly struck from the diagonal side.
It turned out that Ding Xiaolan saw that Qi Lu was in danger, and hurriedly used the spirit rune to launch an attack on Yan Long. Originally, she was incapable of using spells, but since her divine consciousness was awakened by Yan Long, spells were no longer in the way.
It's a pity that her mana is still too weak, and before the spirit rune can get close to Yan Long's body, it was torn to pieces by the invisible force.
"Bastard, ant-like humans dare to be rude to me!" When he saw that the attacker was Ding Xiaolan, Yan Long couldn't help but be furious, and he turned to attack Ding Xiaolan.
I saw that the scorching sun-like light emanated from his palm, and the eyes of the stabbing people couldn't be opened, and a spear condensed by light in the blazing light quickly attacked Ding Xiaolan!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Qi Lu hurriedly flew up, blocked in front of Ding Xiaolan, and raised the golden rainbow sword without hesitation to slash the spear.
"Click!" Qi Lu cut off the spear, and Ding Xiaolan turned the corner, but there was already cold sweat on his face.
Before Qi Lu could breathe a sigh of relief, Yan Longxin's attacks came one after another, and all three of them were knocked into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.
Qi Lu and Lao Wu were embarrassed in the dust, but Ding Xiaolan was seriously injured, and she no longer had the strength to stand up.
"Send me all to hell!" When these cold and ruthless words came out of Yan Long's mouth, the breath of death hit the sky overwhelmingly, and before Qi Lu could react, he felt a powerful force tearing through his body.
All of them could not move, as if their lives were as fragile as dry leaves, which would be shattered with a single blow, and the fear of death instantly enveloped the hearts of the three of them.
Just when everyone was in despair, a mysterious force that seemed to come from outer space instantly attacked, and the coldness made Qi Lu shiver suddenly, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Are you dead? For a moment, Qi Lu had the illusion of death, and when everything calmed down, he saw an incredible sight.
"What's going on?" "This can't be! Lao Wu and Ding Xiaolan also cried out.
Yan Long, who was still fierce and vicious just now, didn't move at all at this moment, it seemed that the whole person had been petrified, and his eyes had been closed, as if he had fallen asleep.
Just when everyone was in shock, they found that there was a mysterious force that dragged them in front of Yan Long, Qi Lu and Lao Wu couldn't resist this mysterious power even if they used all their divine power, they could only watch Yan Long's body suck themselves in like a black hole.
In an instant, there was darkness in their vision, and when the three of them regained consciousness, they found themselves in a strange world.
It was a complete chaos, they floated in mid-air like weightlessness, surrounded by countless floating objects, like stones and not stones, and like strange objects that had been deliberately carved by someone.
"Are we dead?" Ding Xiaolan's voice was obviously crying.
Qi Lu replied in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense, beauties, we have all been to hell!" ”
"And where is this?"
Qi Lu couldn't answer, he turned his eyes to Lao Wu, and he was also surprised when he saw the master.
Suddenly, a warm wind blew, and countless lights lit up not far in front of them, and when the light dissipated, a young man dressed in ancient Confucian clothes appeared in front of them.
The man looked at them with a folding fan in his hand and a grin, his heterochromatic eyes shining with a very warm soft light.
"Birch!" Qi Lu excitedly stepped forward and hugged him. "Thank you for saving me."
"I smell bad, and I don't know how to quit bad habits!" Birch broke free from his embrace a little bored, and chuckled and said, "Alas, you are too bold to dare to beat His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”
"Hmph, he's not a prince, he's a demon, a big villain!" Ding Xiaolan replied angrily, and wanted to continue scolding, but Qi Lu had stopped her.
"Birch, I need your help!" Qi Lu said sincerely: "Come with us to stop Yan Long's conspiracy!" ”
"No, I refuse."
Hearing Oneiroi's words, all three of them were stunned.
