"I look at your creation, which is very subtle and has unlimited potential. Even the three people I personally taught cannot evolve the heavens and all things as freely as you. The young man laughed three times: "It is interesting that you already have such a 'Dao' but you still don't know the Dao!

Zhang Zixing muttered secretly, and when he heard the words of "personally teach the three of them", where was there any doubt, and hurriedly saluted again: "Sure enough, it is Teacher Hongjun!"

The young man shook his head and said, "Whether it is Hongjun or Junhong, it is just a name, just like if you call me 'teacher', 'Taoist friend', 'you', it's all like this." The Tao is always the Tao. ”

Zhang Zixing nodded as if he didn't understand, and couldn't help but "stick": "Since the Tao is still the Tao, then the Taoist friend is still the Taoist friend." ”

Hongjun listened to him still kicking his nose and hugging the title of "Daoyou", and he didn't blame him, but nodded approvingly, and added a sentence quite meaningfully: "You, always you." ”

Zhang Zixing heard that Hongjun had a tendency to become more and more subtle, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm, except for the "Dao", he really had too many questions to ask Hongjun in his heart, and the boss suddenly disappeared as if he had just appeared, and asked hurriedly: "Fellow Daoist, I still have a lot of questions, I hope you can advise." ”

Hongjun said with a smile: "Since I am here today, I should solve your doubts, you can just ask." ”

Zhang Zixing thought for a while and asked, "Why did I come here?"

This "here" does not refer to the ruins, but to the world.

Others may not understand, but Hongjun understands what he means, and asks rhetorically: "Can you answer me, why did you come into being?"

Zhang Zixing wants to answer that some kind of bizarre explosion caused the derivation of the "universe", but the question is, how did the explosion occur?

Hongjun saw that Zhang Zixing was silent, smiled indifferently, and said: "Everything in the universe has its own wonders, even if you can roughly evolve the world, you can't know everything, you need to comprehend and enter the realm for a long time. As for why you are here, it is not enough to be a Taoist, but the Taoist is that you have already come. ”

Zhang Zixing nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Daoist friends should know that I am a person from outside the world, but I used my magical powers to help me in the suburbs of Chaoge back then, what is the reason?"

This question has always bothered him, especially after understanding Hongjun's identity, he is even more puzzled.

Hongjun replied: "You came here because of a strange chance, it is an unusual number, you don't belong to this world, and you have the emperor's order, so it affects the number of days, causing the heavenly machine to be disordered, and even the mixed yuan cultivation can not be recognized clearly." If it is in an ordinary world, when there is a great change, then this is in the midst of a killing and robbery, and it may not be an opportunity. But if you follow the original destiny, you seem to know the destiny of heaven, so there are many precautions to change, if this continues, the more different the number will be, and the number of days will change greatly. Since the opening up of 'Chaos', the Pangu Star has been the core of this universe, the beginning of all souls, especially in this killing and tribulation, and its changes should affect the number of the entire universe. Therefore I have come to draw the power of merit and piety from the power of merit and piety in you, and I have put that mask on you, and from the moment you put on the mask, the number has been completely dissolved, and it is no longer a threat, and you have become a mortal being. Although it is outside of fate, it is already known in the number of days. The reason why you have cultivated to enter the realm is far better than ordinary people, one is because of chance, and the other is because of the surname of enlightenment, but in addition, the body of the different number is also a big reason. ”

Zhang Zixing suddenly realized: Hongjun helped him back then, it turned out to be this purpose, his cultivation speed can be called unprecedented, especially in the later period, it is simply soaring, it turned out to be caused by the "odd number" body! Although the power of piety and the power of merit were gradually ignored by him later, they have been quietly playing a role, no wonder Hongjun said back then, "The benefits of the power of merit are far from being like this, and you will know about it in the future", which is indeed a benefit beyond expectations.

Zhang Zixing also finally understood why when he asked Nuwa Niangniang in Nuwa Temple, Nuwa Niangniang didn't see the "body outside of life", and then after he put on the mask, the saints recognized his strange life, and they didn't expect it to be like this!

"Whether it's the power of piety or the power of merit, or the life of the mask, it's all due to your chance. If you don't have this opportunity, I should say that I can't dissolve your power of numbers, and then you won't have any future achievements. ”

Zhang Zixing asked hesitantly: "If so, what should I do?"

"Either respond to the catastrophe in advance, or not exist in the world...... Hongjun's eyes fell on the void behind Zhang Zixing: "Or, you will come here." ”

This time, "here" is different from the previous one, referring to the secret realm of returning to the ruins.

Zhang Zixing was shocked when he heard this: "This return to the ruins is some kind of ...... The Exiles?"

"Banishment?" is an apt term. Hongjun bowed slightly, "The people who enter this secret realm, except for the people who are unlucky to break in, are originally all people who have been hindered in the days. When 'Pangu' broke through chaos and opened the world, it divided yin and yang, turned into four qi, and achieved time, space and stars. And the core of Pangu's power has turned into the stars where people and immortals live today. The four qi are one, and the qi of the five elements is separated, giving birth to all living beings. The five beasts of the five elements are the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, the Xuanwu, and the unicorn. The power of the five beasts is the origin of chaos, and it also has the qi of 'Pangu', so it causes chaos and turmoil. In order to alleviate this catastrophe, it is necessary to reconcile the chaos of the five elements. I use the innate qi born of 'Pangu' to achieve two strange things, one can distinguish the fortune of the straight, determine the number of days and the momentum of the five elements, which is the god list, and the other can gather the killing qi of living beings to absorb the power of the origin of the five elements, which is to beat the divine whip. This should be the beginning of the murder. The chaotic origin power of the five beasts was captured by the whip of the gods, and they knew that the catastrophe was at the head, and they fled at the moment, but they were suppressed by me with the innate five qi. I opened up a realm with my supernatural powers, and included all the people who hindered the harmony of the five elements on the list of gods into this realm, and it was this ruin. When Xuanwu was first included in the ruins, it changed due to the combination of the power of the five elements and the innate qi, and became a true martial arts soap carving flag. The other four beasts also divided into four banners and fell in various places, either for people to gain, or for hiding somewhere, for those who are destined to stay. After that, whenever the killing qi is prosperous, it will definitely affect the momentum of the five elements because of that Pangu strange qi, and when the regeneration kills, a large number of living beings must be sacrificed to calm the five qi. Before today's Shang and Zhou wars, there were still the battles of the two demon clans and the battle of Xuanyuan Chiyou, all of which were caused by the killing and robbery. ”

Zhang Zixing was surprised when he heard this, he couldn't imagine that this was the reason for returning to the ruins and killing and robbing, and those strange beasts were banished to the secret realm of returning to the ruins because of the obstacle of harmonizing the five elements. At the same time, he was also secretly congratulating himself for his good luck, otherwise he would have been "eliminated" by Hongjun back then, and there would have been no subsequent series of experiences.

Zhang Zixing suddenly thought of the small flying machine that Hongjun wanted to artificially rain back then, and asked: "Why did Daoyou ask me for that strange thing back then? With Daoyou's magical powers, I shouldn't look down on this thing." ”

Hongjun smiled, his palm slowly opened, and a pocket-sized version of a small flying machine suddenly appeared. Under Hongjun's mind, the originally monotonous small flying machine suddenly turned into various equipment, and even turned into weapons or robots, only to see Zhang Zixing stunned, this change is not that kind of spell change, but a kind of "transformation" in the scientific category.

"The magical powers you have evolved are very different from the Pangu Enlightenment in this world, but one thing is the same," Hongjun put away the flying machine and said, "A strange thing like yours is a new thing that needs to be learned and recognized to me. Whether it is the Qiankun in your heart, or the power derived from the Qiankun that I am currently in, it is still expanding outward, and I don't know when it will end. Therefore, although the Tao is constant, it is also changing. There is no end to the 'Tao' that we have realized, and there are still too many unknown mysteries, which need to be continuously comprehended and learned in the long process, as the so-called 'Tao is endless'. ”

Zhang Zixing heard Hongjun actually say this, and his heart was full of respect, but he was a little frustrated: "However, my 'Dao' ......"

"I don't know it's a kind of 'Dao'," Hongjun said with a smile on his face, but his eyes showed a strange look: "If you can know the 'Dao' and understand the 'Dao', I may have one more true 'Dao friend'." ”

This is undoubtedly a word of encouragement, especially from Hongjun's mouth, which makes Zhang Zixing's heart very excited.

Hongjun sighed: "It is precisely because the 'Dao' is a process of continuous learning and change, although the Divine Whip, the Divine List and this return to the ruins can solve the chaos of the Five Elements at that time, it may not be a perfect thing. After years of cultivation and improvement, the Fengshen List has been improved, and it can determine the power of all 'positions'. And the killing calamity caused by the Pangu strange qi that beat the divine whip is difficult to dissolve. ”

Zhang Zixing heard it from Hongjun's words before, the Divine Whip determined that the Qi of the Five Elements would produce killing and robbery at the beginning of Chaos, and every time the Qi of Killing was great in later generations, the Pangu Qi left behind by the Divine Whip would affect the momentum of the Five Elements and regenerate the robbery, resulting in the death of a large number of living beings. In other words, the "role" played by the subsequent killing and robbery has deviated from the original intention of harmonizing the five elements, and has instead become the "culprit" of increasing the scale of the war and death.

From Hongjun's words, Zhang Zixing faintly understood his state of mind, Hongjun was like a bystander in nature, and at the time of a huge crisis, he took action to resolve the danger. But the solution also leaves more problems, such as destroying a certain ecological balance, if you continue to intervene in order to solve this problem, then there will be more and more problems, and it will become a world where all links are considered to be indulgent, so that it is obviously contrary to Hongjun's "Tao", as Hongjun's understanding of the universe becomes deeper and deeper, this kind of "bystander" consciousness that goes with the flow becomes more and more intense.

For example, when a photographer is photographing the animal world, he sees a group of lions hunting antelopes, and because he thinks the antelope is pitiful, he exterminates the lions, but this destroys the food chain in nature, causing unpredictable consequences. Of course, this is just a one-sided metaphor, according to Zhang Zixing's speculation, in Hongjun's heart, this "lion" may not only kill and rob, but also cover many things and truths in the universe. Perhaps, only an "outlier" like Zhang Zixing can really cause some of his actions.

Zhang Zixing was about to speak, but he saw Hongjun scoop his hand slightly, and there were already two more things in his hand out of thin air, one was the lost Zhenwu soap carving flag, and the other was actually a ball of light - super brain!

"This should be your possessions, and you may take them. Hongjun said, and the Zhenwu soap carving flag and super brain suddenly appeared in Zhang Zixing's hands. Zhang Zixing obviously felt the fear in the consciousness of the superbrain, and did not destroy it at the moment, but used his strength to close the superbrain and lock it up in his own "Qiankun". And when the True Martial Arts Soap Carving Flag fell into Zhang Zixing's hand, it suddenly emitted a faint light, and Zhang Zixing suddenly felt the familiar and gentle power coming from the flag, which seemed to be connected with himself and inseparable.

"This true martial arts soap carving flag is transformed by the origin of the fusion of innate qi and water, and it is sealed by the power of the ruins, and it cannot be activated unless the power of chaos is realized. You have the Xuanwu Method, and this flag is also the same origin, so you are recognized as the Lord. ”

Zhang Zixing hurriedly thanked Hongjun, but Hongjun shook his head: "You don't need to thank me, since this Zhenwu soap carving flag recognizes the master, then it should be time for this former 'exile' place to end." ”

Zhang Zixing was taken aback and asked, "Daoist friends don't want to destroy the entire Guiruin, what should those strange beasts do?"

"Originally, they were eliminated by the Heavenly Dao, but now they are like returning to ruins, and they do not exist in the world. Hongjun's face was still indifferent, as if this decision to erase countless conscious lives was so easy and natural.

"Daoyou's move is too arbitrary...... Zhang Zixing couldn't help but say, but he thought of something more important, and hurriedly asked: "I still have something important to ask for, because Haotian and Jin Mu's evil thoughts set up a great annihilation array, causing a catastrophe for thirty-three days with the power of heaven, and it is about to affect the human world. May I ask Daoyou, how can I defuse this calamity?"

Hongjun replied: "Speaking of which, this calamity is also related to your out-of-life body, because of your appearance, the three whips of the gods are combined into one, and the power of killing and robbery should be multiplied, so there is such a catastrophe of the collapse of the sky." If you want to resolve this catastrophe of extinction, you should combine the bodies of the three emperors of the Heavenly Emperor, the Earth Emperor, and the Human Emperor, and do your best to use the combined efforts of the innate five flags to set thirty-three days, and then calm the difficulties in the human world. ”

Zhang Zixing's heart moved: Among the three emperors, the Yellow Emperor and Shennong have exhausted their strength, but fortunately, Fu Xi still has the power of the rank and can be the "Emperor of the Earth"; he is the body of the Human Emperor and can be the "Emperor of the People"; but the candidate for the "Emperor of Heaven" does not know if she can be replaced by Princess Longji? After all, she also has the power of the Heavenly Position.

Originally, the Innate Five Elements Flag lacked the mysterious and unknown True Martial Soap Carving Flag, but now this is the most difficult one; the plain Cloud Realm Flag was originally his own thing; with the agreement between him and Zhun Ti and Lian, it should not be a problem to borrow a Qinglian Treasure Color Flag; with the Feathered Winged Immortal, it is not difficult to get the Flame Light Flag from the ground; the key is the Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag.

If it doesn't work, even if it is a robbery, it must be snatched from the hands of the Yuan Shi Tianzun! Now that Zhang Zixing is no longer what it used to be, it is time to return to the ruins and settle accounts with the sage disciple of that "Taoist friend".
