Temple of the Heavens.

As usual, it was empty and quiet.

Lou Youzhi supported Dou Tianyuan to the front of the dragon chair and slowly bowed down.

"Weichenlou has knowledge, see Your Majesty."

"Come in."

Emperor Yongtai's voice came from behind the curtain.

Except that his voice has changed from old to majestic, the tone is no different from before.

It's the same indifference.

"I've really calculated ...... for you"

Dou Tianyuan muttered.

The two of them began to climb the stairs.

It stands to reason that going to the apse to meet Emperor Qing is to go out of the Tianji Palace, go around the back of the palace, and ask for a meeting from the north gate is the normal way.

Like the prayer for heaven that many royal families have participated in, they also enter through the north gate.

But for the two sides who have already laid out the carriage and horses, this pretending to be respectful step is obviously a bit redundant, and Emperor Yongtai is too lazy to care about such a detail.

As he spoke, the golden curtain had been lifted, making it clear that the two of them would enter directly from behind the dragon chair.

In this way, the two entered along the curtain.

The hall connecting the front and back halls is spacious, but it is crowded.

Because the whole hall was hung with hundreds of silk threads horizontally, and all kinds of documents were hung.

There are pictures, articles, and scrolls...... Dense.

With just one glance, Lou Youzhi saw a lot of content that he had only heard about before, but could not be exposed to in person.

For example, he drew the earliest Kunyu map, which was much larger than the current land area.

For example, the ancient cultivation method recorded in ancient characters.

And so on and so forth.

"These things didn't exist at the beginning."

Emperor Yongtai's voice came from deeper, "It's specially prepared after I decided to tell you the truth, but it's a pity that ......"

What a pity?

It's a pity that no one dares to be invited or obeyed to enter the apse.

In this regard, Lou Youzhi was unmoved.

The various precious historical materials hanging on the ground also swept their eyes casually and stopped paying attention, and continued to walk with Dou Tianyuan in their arms.

Squeak.

The door connecting the apse to the nave opens automatically.

The palatial but very common apse space is revealed.

A heroic and majestic figure, standing with his hands in his hands, with his back to the two.

It was Emperor Yongtai.

"Your Majesty......"

Lou has the knowledge to worship again.

"Alright, I won't kill you."

Emperor Yongtai didn't look back, and directly interrupted, "Don't you want to see the evidence of the destruction of the world?" Let's see. ”

Lou Youzhi and Dou Tianyuan glanced at each other and walked at the same time.

The first step is to step into the apse.

- Boom!

The loud noise, which is obviously harsh, but at the same time looks so empty and ethereal, appears so suddenly!

Rao Shilou Youzhi had already prepared in advance, and he also fell into a trance in an instant, and his heart was full of fear.

"This is it! That's it! ”

Dou Tianyuan broke free and staggered a few steps.

ran all the way to Emperor Yongtai's side, and couldn't help but fall down and fell down suddenly.

Then, his whole body froze.

On the ground in front of him, there was an irregular hole in the square circle.

At the edge of the hole are fine cracks that extend in all directions.

Inside the hole is an indescribable depth.

With just one glance, Dou Tianyuan had a strong urge to flee from here.

"That's where the world is damaged?"

Lou Youzhi didn't know when he stood behind Dou Tianyuan.

was also frightened but retained a somewhat calm tone, allowing Dou Tianyuan to quickly calm down.

"It's supposed to be ......"

Dou Tianyuan slowly got up and muttered with shock, "The sound came from here, and it was exactly the same as what I heard before. ”

"Huh."

Emperor Yongtai turned around, revealing a face that was as young as the one on Qi Tiantai.

"If the entire Heavenly Xuan Realm is regarded as a cave heaven, the rules that could originally fill the world can now only be shrouded in such a small area as the apse."

"That's why, this tiresome voice can't be heard out of the apse."

As he spoke, Emperor Yongtai flicked the sleeves of his robe.

The floor of the apse was leveled again, revealing the original rich carpet.

Whether it's noise or holes, they disappear in an instant.

"It's ridiculous."

Emperor Yongtai suddenly shook his head with some amusement, "I originally only had a few years of life, and the matter of Yongzhou was just to delay it for the sake of the successor and the world." ”

"But I didn't expect that there would be so many changes later."

"You resented me because of Jiang Zhihong's death, but have you ever thought that if Jiang Zhihong didn't do anything, at least two million people would survive in Yongzhou?"

"And if Jiang Zhihong succeeds in saving Yongzhou, with the number of people who have plummeted at that time, in less than ten years, the whole world will once again fall into a crisis of destruction."

"I want to ask you."

Emperor Yongtai asked lightly, "At that time, the next Emperor Qing will be coerced by the so-called righteousness of the world, and he can no longer use natural disasters to delay the crisis, so who should he hate if the whole world dies because of this?" ”

The repeated questioning is a real fact on the surface.

On the one hand, there is personal emotion, and on the other hand, there is the danger of extinction.

The two wanted to refute it, but they couldn't find an argument to refute it.

In the end, it was Dou Tianyuan who was unwilling, and asked, "Is there really no other way?" ”

"There is no proven way to work, but ...... When I was still the crown prince, I tried to find another way. ”

Emperor Yongtai suddenly spoke, "Maybe there is a way to do it once and for all without anyone dying." ”

"Once and for all?"

Dou Tianyuan immediately came to his senses, "What is the method?" ”

Emperor Yongtai slowly spit out three words: "Immortal Heaven." ”

"This ......"

Lou Youzhi's heart tightened, and he said quietly: "The minister has found some records, Changshengtian is different from other caves, the space in it is very small, about the size of a mansion, not to mention the migration of the entire human race, even the slightly more vigorous families are too crowded." ”

"Certainly not migration."

Emperor Yongtai shook his head, "No matter how you say it, the Immortal Heaven is only a cave heaven, far from being able to compare with the Heavenly Xuan Realm, how can I be so unwise?" ”

"When I searched the mountains and rivers, in addition to finding a supernatural power, I also obtained the Immortal Heaven and many fragments of the Cave Heaven."

"There are rules in it, and there are only a few aura left."

"These fragments were all placed in the Immortal Heaven by me."

"Because my purpose is to find a way out of the Heavenly Xuan Realm, and the rules of the Immortal Heaven are ineffective against people with a crippled purple mansion like the Taizu bloodline, it wasn't until I returned to the capital a long time later that I noticed something strange when I counted the harvest."

"Fragments of rules tainted with it, many of which have disappeared and become completely dead."

"On the contrary, the other fragments that contain the aura are very well preserved."

Emperor Yongtai looked at the two of them deeply, "If my guess is correct, those rules have been absorbed by the Immortal Heaven. ”

"The rules of immortality, can absorb other rules of the Cave Heaven?"

Dou Tianyuan was stunned, "Has there been any change in the Immortal Heaven?" ”

"I didn't want to make a fuss to everyone, so I didn't become the true controller of the Immortal Heaven, so I couldn't really feel the change."

Emperor Yongtai shook his head slightly, "But the rules on those fragments have disappeared, and there can only be one explanation." ”

Lou Youzhi thought of a more critical question and asked, "What Your Majesty just said, not all fragments have been absorbed by the rules?" ”

"Indeed."

Emperor Yongtai nodded, "Some rules can be absorbed, and some rules will always remain the same even if they are stored in the Immortal Heaven for a long time. ”

"It should have something to do with the grade of the cave sky, but there is no need to worry about this."

"I've tried it with some higher-grade cave fragments."

"At least, the fragments of the Illusory Heaven that can't be absorbed by the rest of the Cave Heavens can be absorbed by the apse to remove the rules."

"However, it may be that there are too few fragments of the Illusory Heaven, so it will not help the apse."

"But the Immortal Heaven is different, you know, what I had at that time was an intact Immortal Heaven."

"The solution I have come up with is to shatter the Immortal Heaven, and then collect as many fragments as possible that are tainted with the rules of Immortality, and feed them all to the apse."

With Emperor Yongtai's narration, the two couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Truly.

Although immortality is a rule that acts on longevity, whether it is the cave or the world, the process of its gradual decline can also be regarded as an alternative longevity.

In addition, no matter how high the grade of the Immortal Heaven was, it would definitely not be able to compare with the entire Heavenly Xuan Realm.

This method is really feasible in theory.

After pondering for a moment, Lou Youzhi's heart moved slightly, "Your Majesty designed Lin Mad not to incarnate outside the body at the beginning?" ”

"Out-of-body incarnation?"

Emperor Yongtai shook his head and smiled, "It's just an accident. ”

"If you want to destroy a cave by artificial means, you can only do it by using another cave to touch it and let the rules of the two confront each other."

"And the many caves in the capital either can't be moved lightly, or each has its own forces entrenched, and it's not a prince who can squander it at will."

"So, there is a design for Lin Madness."

"As for the ...... of the incarnation outside the body"

"Before Lin Mad survived the collapse of the Hundred Herb Garden, I didn't know that a small Dao Master had actually mastered a magical power."

"It's a pity that I didn't expect that all the rules of the Immortal Heaven were actually gathered on a fragment, and this fragment has never been found by the imperial court."

"I tried my best and tried my best, but because of such a small deviation, I failed for more than 20 years."

"It wasn't until a while ago that the appearance of that immortal made me see hope again."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Immortal is the relic of the Taizu, right?"

As he spoke, Emperor Yongtai looked at the two meaningfully, "Where is he now, do you two know?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Lou Youzhi and Dou Tianyuan's faces turned pale, and they invariably chose to keep silent.

"That's fine."

Emperor Yongtai sighed, "Do you know what kind of environment it is outside the realm? ”

Environment?

The two of them were stunned, and they didn't know why Emperor Yongtai suddenly said this.

"You might as well think about it, this gap has existed for so many years, how can the first emperor not send someone out to find out?"

With a faint word, Emperor Yongtai turned around and let the terrifying black hole reappear.

A piercing scream sounded, and Lou Youzhi and Dou Tianyuan were inevitably frightened again.

After a while, until the two of them got used to it a little, Emperor Yongtai continued to speak.

"Over the years, the nine changes of the Yang God, the nine grades of the Law Phase, and the nine turns of the Golden Body have all been sent out."

"I still sent it out with a rope of Taoist quality tied to my waist."

"Unfortunately, nothing has been gained."

"Dao quality ropes, as soon as they leave this world, they will be corroded in an instant, and if they pull back with a little force, they will be directly torn off."

"The fate of the Nine Grades of the Law Phase is the same as the fate of the Dao Instrument Rope, which decayed into dry bones in an instant."

"In comparison, the Golden Body Nine Turns can last a little longer."

"The highest record was six hours later, when a cry for help came back."

"However, the most surprising thing is that there is only a Yang God in the second realm of the Seed Dao."

As he spoke, Emperor Yongtai's eyes flashed with an inexplicable brilliance.

This glimmer of brilliance is fleeting, and it is extremely difficult to detect.

But it was still inevitably captured by Lou Youzhi.

In fact, since Lou Youzhi entered the apse, he has always been quietly paying attention to Emperor Yongtai's expression.

It wasn't until now that he noticed something unusual.

Lou Youzhi's heart was a little chilling.

I don't know why, he always felt the brilliance that flashed in Emperor Yongtai's eyes......

Seems to be a desire?

So Lou Youzhi pondered and asked, "Could it be that the Yang God can survive outside longer?" ”

"That's right."

Emperor Yongtai nodded, "Wrapping the body with the Yang God can last outside the realm for a whole month." ”

"He's back?"

Dou Tianyuan couldn't help but ask.

"Nope."

Emperor Yongtai's tone was filled with regret, "The rope broke quickly. ”

"The reason why the emperor at that time was able to find out that he had lived so long was because everyone who went out left a lamp of life."

"In fact, in so many years of attempts, only the life lamp can transmit information back to the outside world, and all other foreign objects are invalid."

I see......

Dou Tianyuan was a little disappointed.

The function of the life lamp is only one, which reflects the life and death of the life of the life lord in real time, and the light goes out when people die.

The life lamp does not belong to a treasure, a magic weapon, or a Taoist weapon, even if the life master dies on the seventh layer of the edict, it will react immediately, and it can reflect the life and death of people outside the realm, which is reasonable.

"In the Taizu Codex, this is not what it was at the beginning."

Emperor Yongtai continued, "Its original appearance was similar to the entrance and exit of the cave, and it could be opened and closed at any time. ”

"However, since Taizu pacified the world, it can only be hidden, and cannot be closed."

"Even if it doesn't continue to expand, it will always remain the same, and the world will not be destroyed, but have you ......ever thought about it?"

"Is there any other world besides the Heavenly Xuan Realm?"

"If there is one......

Emperor Yongtai's tone suddenly deepened, "Once there is a strong person outside the realm who comes in along this gap, what will we face?" ”

A strong man outside the boundary?

Follow it in?

The two were shocked.

How powerful would it be to be able to survive in an environment outside the realm where even the Dao Weapon and the Nine Turns of the Golden Body would be corroded and annihilated?

"In addition, its expansion can only be delayed, not stopped."

Emperor Yongtai didn't give the two of them time to react, "When I first saw it in the forty-second year of Wenchang, it was only six feet in diameter. ”

"From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the Wenchang period, thousands of years have only expanded to six feet...... However, in Wenchang to the present day, it has expanded to one zhang for decades. ”

Lou Youzhi and the two glanced at each other, but they were silent and unspeakable.

At least judging from all the appearances now, Emperor Yongtai's approach is really correct.

Whether it is Jiang Zhihong, those Mars who roared 'what is martial arts' in Yongzhou, Du Qianchuan, Jiang Xinghe, etc., including the two of them......

It's all wrong.

Is it really wrong?

"Now, there is a way to put an end to the danger of extinction."

Emperor Yongtai hid the gap, turned around and said lightly, "And you, still have to stick to your heart, that ridiculous and hypocritical morality?" ”

Amusing?

Hypocrisy?

Dou Tianyuan's instinctive reaction was anger from his heart.

But Emperor Yongtai didn't care about his reaction at all, he just stared at Lou Youzhi deeply.

After all, Dou Tianyuan is a reckless man many times, and this has been verified many times.

And Lou Youzhi's past actions are enough to show that he is not a person who will lose his mind for personal feelings.

Everything I did before was because I didn't know the truth about the world.

Now that you know, you should be able to make a reasonable and correct choice.

Pity.

Emperor Yongtai still thought wrong.

"Your Majesty."

Lou Youzhi laughed, "Your real purpose shouldn't be to find a way out for the entire Tianxuan Realm, right?" ”

"Or rather, you can't find a way out for the entire Heavenly Xuan Realm."

"All you're doing is just looking for a way out for yourself, aren't you?"
