One day, in the Water Curtain Cave, the Monkey King was drinking and having fun with the monkeys, and the monkeys cheered, so happy!

Suddenly, an old white ape who had taken a few sips of wine fell to the ground and never got up. The monkeys were shocked and stepped forward to call:

"Old white ape, what's wrong with you?"

"Haha, could it be that I drank too much wine, I can't do it, and I fainted?"

"Wake up, wake up!"

However, the monkeys pushed for a long time, and the old white ape still didn't move, and the monkeys realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly surrounded this side, and the Monkey King also came closer, and asked curiously: "What's wrong with him, why didn't he wake up?"

At this time, a long-armed old ape came over, turned the old white ape on the ground, looked at it, and said with a heavy face: "King Qiqi, this old white ape is old and frail, and after this toss, he is already dead." ”

"What, dead?"

The Monkey King was shocked, he had seen the death of other creatures, and obviously knew that death was not a good thing.

"Yes, my lord. ”

The old ape nodded and said, "All living beings in heaven and earth have a number of lives, and life and death are controlled by heaven. In the future, we will also be like this old white ape, old age and decay and die, this is the principle of heaven. ”

"Old ape, how do you recognize these truths?" asked the Monkey King.

The long-armed old ape is the oldest, swallowing smoke and haze in this mountain, nourished by the aura of Huaguo Mountain, and has some Taoism, it said: "King, the old man has been to the world in the past, although he has not learned some skills, but he has also grown a little insight, and knows some things that ordinary people cannot know. ”

This old ape is a gibbon monkey, and has been to the world, but unfortunately a monkey is destined to cause some trouble when he arrives in the world, and the past is unbearable, it shook its head, and did not want to say more.

"The old ape really has insight, so do you know how to explain it in detail?" asked the Monkey King hurriedly.

The gibbon monkey said: "The old ape is not talented, and he is showing off." ”

Immediately, it cleared its throat and said, "Great King, do you know that in this heaven and earth, since the opening of the world, there are countless kinds of creatures in the world, and there are countless of them, but they all have a lifespan limit. Among them, the longevity is long, such as the ancient Tsubaki, with 8,000 years old as spring, 8,000 years old as autumn, and the short lifespan, such as floating on the water surface, can only live for a while. However, no matter how long or short the life expectancy is, once the limit is reached, they will die and re-enter the cycle of samsara, and so on. For example, I am an ape, although it is not under the control of the unicorn, the dragon, the phoenix, or the human race, and it is free, but it only has a lifespan of hundreds of years, and when the time of death comes, the king of Hades will come to ask for his life. ”

After hearing this, the others didn't care, these life and death are ordinary things, they are simple-minded, they don't think too much, hundreds of years are enough for them to play.

But when the Monkey King heard this, he was greatly shocked, and he asked, "Old ape, is there a way to live forever in this world?"

The gibbon monkey pondered for a moment and said, "Yes." ”

The Monkey King was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Where is it?" ”

The gibbon monkey said: "Among the five insects in this world, there are only three types of creatures that are not under the control of the king of Hades. ”

"What three?"

"Buddha, immortal and sacred, these three have learned the method of longevity, avoided reincarnation, immortality and immortality, and lived with heaven, earth, mountains and rivers. ”

The Monkey King's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Where can I learn this method of immortality." ”

The gibbon monkey smiled helplessly and said: "King, I don't know about this, I guess there will be places such as overseas immortal islands and Lingshan immortal land." ”

When the Monkey King heard this, he thought to himself, "Where are I going to find a teacher to teach?"

The Monkey King must be determined to go overseas to visit the Immortal Mountain, worship a teacher, and learn the method of immortality.

After that, it sent a monkey to rob a boat on the seashore, and it drove the boat away from the sea, looking for immortals.

In this way, the Monkey King began his difficult path search for several years, breaking through the wind and waves, sleeping in the open air, bravely facing demons and monsters, and experiencing endless hardships along the way.

This is a path of seeking, and from the moment it embarks on it, it is practicing.

The Monkey King's unruly character, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and dares to poke a hole in heaven and earth, is trained on this road.

The bitterness and bitterness of this journey are not eaten in vain.

......

In the primeval starry sky, on the Supreme Taiyin Star, there is a secret realm, called the Laurel Secret Realm, among which there is a heavenly palace, called the Taiyin Palace, which is the place where the moon god Chang'e lives.

The Taiyin Star was deserted, lonely and desolate, the moonlight sprinkled on the earth, and there were no living beings.

Only in the secret realm of laurel, there is a spiritual plant fairy grass elixir, and there is an innate spiritual root laurel tree. In addition, there are only the moon god Chang'e, her pet Taiyin Jade Rabbit, and Wu Gang, who is constantly cutting Gui.

Wu Gang's predecessor was Hou Yi, Chang'e would sit in front of the Moon Palace every day, quietly looking at Wu Gang who was cutting Gui, not knowing what he was thinking, he sat for two or three hours, and finally sighed helplessly and returned to the Moon Palace.

Day after day, year after year, all the time.

Today, the moonlight is sprinkled, and the secret realm is rippling with soft brilliance, like layers of water waves, rippling in people's hearts, in this deserted moon palace, bringing people a little loneliness.

Wu Gang was coarse clothed, burly, and he was holding an axe at the moment, constantly swinging and falling.

"Knock...... Boom...... Knock ......"

There was silence between heaven and earth, only the sound of the axe chopping on the tree was constantly ringing, adding a little vitality to the lonely Moon Palace.

Chang'e sat in front of the gate of the Moon Palace not far away, quietly watching here, the Taiyin Jade Rabbit was bouncing around in the medicine garden not far away, holding a medicine hoe and constantly digging medicine.

I don't know how long it took, Chang'e sighed and returned to the Moon Palace.

Wu Gang's face remained unchanged, as if he hadn't seen anything, he had been with this expression all these years.

Suddenly, Wu Gang's expression, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, finally changed, his face was shocked, his eyes were full of surprise and curiosity, but the movements in his hands did not stop.

His gaze looked beyond the starry sky through the sky, not knowing what he was thinking, and then turned his head to look in other directions, and his face suddenly changed again and again.

In the end, he didn't say anything, returned to the way he was, and continued to cut Gui non-stop.

......

Chaos Heaven Outside the Heavens, a mysterious place, Zixiao Palace is like a mountain peak, suppressing this chaos, making the surrounding chaotic qi extremely calm, and dare not riot.

In the Zixiao Palace, Hongjun Ancestor suddenly opened his eyes and looked out of the desolate wilderness, his indifferent and cold expression changed, there was joy, complexity, and fear......

It took him a long time to recover.

......

Kunlun Mountain, in the Yuxu Palace.

Yuan Shipan sat on the platform, surrounded by misty clouds, and behind him an ancient tea tree of enlightenment stood tall, constantly exuding the aura of Taoism, diffusing in this world. He is wandering the world, dreaming of a thousand dreams, and comprehending the avenue.

Suddenly, Yuan Shi opened his eyes, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then a noble and dazzling purple light shot out of his gaze, looking into the void.

His gaze pierced through the void, through the primeval star field, and even through the desolate world, beyond the chaos of nothingness, to see another dimension.

Yuan Shi saw the endless black, cold, lonely, indifferent, and empty time and space, and saw the bubble-like worlds, which were originally moving according to a specific trajectory, all the heavens and all the worlds.

But just now, in the direction that Yuan Shi was looking at, there was a world moving rapidly, of course, this rapid speed was only relative, compared to before, it can be said that this speed is extremely abnormal.

Even, Yuan Shi can see that these worlds are moving in one direction.

And that direction is the flood where the beginning of the Yuan is located.

Yuan Shi's face changed, and he continued to look in other directions, and he soon found that the worlds in eight directions began to be abnormal, and they were all moving towards the place where the world was located.

"What's going on? Cosmic Collision? Or is it a war of all worlds?"

Yuan Shi pondered for a long time, and he thought of the news he got from the clone Chaos Heavenly Venerable, the realm war, sweeping the heavens. Is this the prelude to the Great War? or something else?

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of the slightest clue, and the only thing he could do was to improve his strength and deal with it calmly. No matter what happens, as long as the strength is enough, he will not be afraid.

"Looking at the situation, at most a thousand years, it will collide with the flood. Yuan Shi's eyes flickered, and he said silently.

"My strength is about to break through, Chaos Tianzun has had the experience of breaking through once, and my success rate is very high. Yuan Shi thought silently.

Without thinking about it anymore, Yuan Shi was going to continue to comprehend the Great Dao, but at this moment, a monkey went up Kunlun Mountain.
