Chapter 26: Between Worlds
When it comes to the issue of insects, we have to think about another question, where did the first batch of "Tsukidan" come from? It can't just come out of nowhere.
Obviously, the eggs are laid by the mother, so there must be a queen and a nest.
According to the investigation of the Daomen, the mother nest is in the spirit world, and it is also the place where the insect people ascend after becoming insect fairies.
It's just that the Dao Gate didn't find the entrance to the spirit world.
At this time, listening to the meaning of Huen Ahan's words, the passage between the spiritual world and the human world seems to be blocked, just like the spiritual cave sky, so the entrance cannot be found.
This kind of "passage" is not a physical object, not a road, a cave, or a pillar of light, but an abstract concept, just like Qi Xuansu's ascension to the Spirit Cave Heaven, not to mention the road, even the time is out of order.
This concept is similar to the incarnation of the immortals, which is essentially breaking down the barriers between the two worlds. However, because these small worlds are still dependent on human existence, the barriers are easier to break. And the Heavenly Immortals have completely left the human world, so the barrier is difficult to break, even if the power of the Heavenly Immortals is far stronger than the people in the human world, the passage opened up can only accommodate a thought that has almost no cultivation to incarnate down.
In the same way, because hell is attached to the underworld rather than the human world, although the difficulty of breaking the barrier is less than that of the immortals who have completely separated from the human world and entered the higher world, it is obviously higher than the various caves and the kingdom of God, so hell has become a place of exile for the Holy Court, that is, those sinners cannot come back.
As for the ascension world, although it is commonly known as the "heavenly realm" or "fairy realm", it is not a concrete existence such as the sky or the starry sky that can be seen when you look up, but a concept.
This world is called "the boundless mystical and vast realm", this world is boundless, there is nothing, there is no light, no shadow, no sound, no beginning, no end. If a mortal comes to this, it is nothing; When the immortals come here, if the silence is deep, the divine soul spreads and extends. Everything is far and near here, it depends on whether the soul can reach it, the soul can reach, between square inches, the soul does not reach, then the ends of the world.
Westerners put forward the concept of "dimension", believing that this is a world higher than the human dimension, and mortals reach this dimension, which is equivalent to nothing, just like the picture characters on paper are separated from the paper to the real world, just some paints and inks, and cannot exist independently. And the immortals are already an otherworldly high-level existence, so they can exist in this high-dimensional world, but if they want to come back, it is also extremely difficult, almost impossible.
Therefore, there is no turning back, and for people in the world, there is no difference between ascending and dying.
The cave heaven, the kingdom of God, the spiritual realm, and the hell that have not yet landed are between the human world and the boundless mystical world, this is also a special dimension, and the evidence is that the heavenly tribulation can be avoided here, and it is obvious that the Heavenly Dao believes that this is no longer the category of the human world. But it's not a place to ascend, so you can come back.
Time is confused here, space is not stable, and many things that cannot be done in the human world can be done here.
So Qi Xuansu can go back to the past.
This is the preliminary conclusion that Qi Xuansu came to when he went to Vientiane Dao Palace, after reading some documents and materials.
These documents are not difficult to find, and for people of Qi Xuansu's status, they are almost public, provided that they are willing to read them.
Most real people are more obsessed with some cultivation experiences or human feelings, and they don't care about these. If Qi Xuansu hadn't had such a special experience, the same would have happened.
However, there is another question that has not been completely solved, even if the dimension between heaven and man is very special, and to achieve this goal, it also requires extremely large strength, in the words of Westerners, that is, quantitative change produces qualitative change. According to the estimation of the Daomen predecessors, theoretically, it would take two One Tribulation Immortals to join forces.
At present, it can be known that counting Wu Luo and Heavenly Master, there are only two immortals, which is of course very powerful, but it is still not enough for reversing time.
Qi Xuansu suspected that there were other immortals involved, and there was more than one.
The Celestial Master's ancestor and ally, the Purple Light True Monarch, was very suspicious, and judging from her many words, she was aware of the Earth Master's plans. But even with the addition of Purple Light True Monarch, it is still not enough.
The other immortals, Qi Xuansu is not clear, it may be the Pingzhang Dazhen of Zhengyi, that is, the Dazhen of the Zhangfu who sits in Dongpo Sazhou. It could also be that there are other unknown immortals.
The foundation of the Dao Gate is by no means as simple as it seems, the Quanzhen Dao hides a Zhou Mengyao, and there is also a Qingping Guild Master who may or may not exist, not including the "Emperor Shakti" of Jianxiu Mountain. According to reason, Zhengyi should have a similar existence other than the Purple Light True Monarch.
A long time ago, Qi Xuansu suspected that there should be one or more immortals in the Daomen, even if the Daomen provided a huge army of spiritual officers, with the foundation of the Daomen, it would not be difficult to cultivate another immortal, after all, there were many ancient gods in the Southern Continent, and there was more than one apostle exiled by the Holy Court, and it was unreasonable for the Daomen to sit on the hundreds of millions of incense in the East. And in the beginning, Zhengyi was in charge of the affairs of ghosts and gods, and was closest to the gods.
The reason why Zhang Wuxian failed to become a god was because she had just stolen the inheritance of Taiyin True Monarch and the matter was revealed, and then she was slashed by the Heavenly Master. If she is given some time to take the foundation of Zhengyi, then she should be the second Taiyin True Monarch. The key is that her background is too sensitive, if she is not a descendant of immortals, but a pure member of the Zhang family, the Zhang family should be happy to see it come to fruition, and will not clean up the portal.
Thinking about it from another angle, the Heavenly Master will be restrained by the Zhang family sect many times, although there are factors that it is difficult for Qing officials to decide family affairs, but the heavenly master will not be afraid of Zhang Zhicheng, does this mean that the Zhang family sect still hides a role similar to that of the Taishang elder? And the immortals are the ones who have stayed in the world for the longest time.
Thinking deeper, if this speculation is true, then the person who forced the Heavenly Master to kill Zhang Wuxian with a sword in the first place could be this possible Zhang family immortal? After all, if both the Heavenly Senior Brother and Sister become immortals, plus a Purple Light True Monarch, it would be difficult for the Zhang Family Sect to ensure their status.
In the same way, the Li family is so strong, and it doesn't just rely on the national teacher and Zhang Dazhen, aside from the patriarch of Jin Gong, and the imperial court, Taiping Road also has a vein of Qingqiu Mountain, which is not inferior to the Cihang vein of Zhengyi, and there is likely to be a fox fairy in Taiping Dao.
These people are not in the normal sequence of the Daomen, and they do not hold specific positions, and they can't see them at all when Jin Que is deliberating, but when it comes to critical moments, life and death, they will definitely appear.
After counting it in such detail, you can understand why Daomen can dispose of Kukulkan, and why Daomen can dictate to Xidaomen, which has two immortals, is simply powerful, whether it is high-level combat power or low-level combat power.
To get back to the point, if you want to reopen this metaphysical conceptual "channel", you naturally do not rely on manpower to dig and chise, but rely on divine power to reconstruct a channel.
The old man in blue that Qi Xuansu saw should be an insect man, strictly speaking, an insect immortal, either in the "Ascension Period" or in the "Yuan Infant Period".
Rebuilding the passage requires divine power, and the insects lack the foundation of faith and cannot collect the power of incense, so they must use some special means, such as using the blood of living people. And the blood sacrifice is the realm of the gods, and the insect people can't do this, so they must use the external force method of the human-faced fruit tree.
At the same time, the power of the insect people is not strong enough, and if they want to complete a series of processes such as cultivation, planting, and harvesting, they must cooperate with other forces, such as Huen Chavin and Utu, who are all powerful factions. Since it was cooperation, it needed to be shared, so Utu took part of the fruit, and even Utu didn't talk about credibility and ate one in advance.
There are also those small human face fruit trees around, which should not be mature, and when they are fully mature, the yield of such a large forest is very considerable.
It all fits.
On the other hand, the insects obstructed the sacrifice of the black sun, and it is still unknown what the reason for this is. Someone deliberately led Qi Xuansu to the line of worms, and they also had a plan. It's not as simple as fighting for divine power.
Qi Xuansu slightly aggravated his tone and reprimanded: "Ah Khan, although you are not a Taoist, you are a guest cultivated by the Western Daomen, a general with decades of Taoist experience, you should know the harm, how can you know about it and not report it?" ”
Huen Ah Khan lowered his posture: "It's that I don't know enough, I must seriously review it." ”
In fact, Qi Xuansu also understands the power of this, and now there are Huen Chavin and Utu who have surfaced, these two are not ordinary people, how big the iceberg should be that has not yet surfaced, it is conceivable that there must be immortals behind the scenes, and maybe it also involves the high-level of Xidaomen.
Even if he didn't consider his brother's reputation, he didn't dare to rashly report and expose it, and looking for death was not such a way to find it.
Of course, it is another matter to go down to investigate this matter and cooperate with the investigation.
Who's on it? Daomen, of course.
Qi Xuansu is from above.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu couldn't be too harsh on Huen Khan, just a little bit.
Qi Xuansu softened his tone again: "Of course, you can't be blamed for this matter, Xidaomen doesn't care, and you can't do anything alone." But then again, you can't blame Xidaomen, after all, it's a war, and if the war is not fought well, let the steam gospel come in, and all your efforts will be in vain, then you can't care about these things. At the end of the day, all the blame lies with the Steam Gospel. ”
Hu Ena Khan said with a straight face: "What Qi Zhenren said is extremely true, and thank you for your understanding." ”
Qi Xuansu walked slowly, his gaze casually swept over those towering temples: "Now it seems that these chaos will not work if it is not rectified. Khan, this is your chance. ”
Huen Ah Khan was stunned: "Please make it clear to the real person." ”
Qi Xuansu said: "Because of Chawen's involvement, you are idle. At your age, when you are in the prime of life, far from the time to retreat to the mountains and forests to enjoy leisure, you need a chance to prove your loyalty and ability to the West Daomen, and now is an opportunity. ”
Huen Ah Khan called himself a dull man, but he was not a dull person, he knew a little bit, and he didn't understand anything, so he immediately said: "But it is driven by real people." ”
