The heavens begin from Pingyang City.

Chapter 854: Zixiao Palace Daozun
The deepest part of the prehistoric world, close to the origin of the way of heaven.

Mist surrounded, chaos surged, endless auspicious clouds spread out, and automatically separated into a path, from which two figures walked out.

A man in a dark robe, full of Taoist spirit, with red lips and white teeth, surrounded by Buddha's light, they are Jiang Yao and the Buddha.

After arriving here, under the calm gaze of Jiang Yao and Buddha, a palace wrapped in chaos and hidden in purple appeared at the end of the road, in the deepest part of the chaos.

The palace is simple yet solemn, with all kinds of great principles permeating around it, evolving into all kinds of mythical beasts and birds surrounding it.

On the plaque directly above the palace gate, there are three ancient characters written that look like the embodiment of the Great Dao runes:
Zixiao Palace!
All three characters contain the principles of the great Dao. One character contains all the dharma. Even if you do not recognize these characters, as long as you see them, you will automatically understand the meaning of the three characters.

'This is the Purple Sky Palace of this world!'

With this thought in mind, Jiang Yao and the Buddha moved their feet and came directly to the end of the road, in front of the steps of the Zixiao Palace.

Looking up, the gate of Zixiao Palace was completely opened, revealing a deep and mysterious hall, as if the owner inside was waiting for Jiang Yao and the others to arrive.

"Sure enough!"

Looking at the Purple Sky Palace with its gate wide open, Jiang Yao smiled faintly and said, "Buddha, it seems that the owner inside already knew we were coming here!"

"Mercy, mercy!"

The Buddha put his hands together, chanted a Buddhist name, and then spoke calmly: "If this world is really related to the existence of Dao Zun, who has achieved Dao fruit, then everything about us will naturally be known to him. Even if we guessed wrong, as the leader of this era, his own Daluo Dao fruit is consistent with the origin of the Heavenly Dao, and the master inside will naturally know clearly that we have come."

"Too."

Nodding, Jiang Yao chuckled and said, "Since the owner inside welcomes our arrival, we should not disappoint him. Let's go, fellow Buddha, and meet this Taoist Hongjun."

The moment he finished speaking, Jiang Yao lightly lifted his feet and climbed directly onto the steps in front of Zixiao Palace and entered the main hall.

The moment he stepped into the hall, Jiang Yao felt dazed, as if he had stepped into another world and everything around him became different.

This place has its own rules and its own ways!
Coming back to his senses, Jiang Yao subconsciously looked inside the hall and discovered that his vision that transcended time and space was directly suppressed here, and he could not see the scene at the end of the hall clearly.

The entire hall was broad and deep, with rows of candles all around it, illuminating the darkness as if it would last forever.

"Zixiao Palace? Is this the Zixiao Palace? It is indeed extraordinary, even more mysterious than the other side of the Taoist temple like Yuxu Palace!"

When the whispers were heard, Jiang Yao's expression did not change much. He glanced at the candlelight around him, and then walked towards the end of the hall as if strolling in a garden.

ta ta ta

Steady and regular footsteps sounded, echoing continuously in this quiet hall, changing with some strange rules.

The entire hall was empty, with only Jiang Yao's figure moving steadily forward, casting a lonely shadow in the hall.

At this moment, Jiang Yao seemed to have lost his concept of time, his grasp of space, and his perception of everything, and fell into a certain peculiar state.

As time passed, Jiang Yao seemed to be constantly receiving some special baptism. He shed a layer of shackles, the power in his body became more and more pure, and his true spirit also felt more and more relaxed.

At the same time, as he moved deeper into the hall, Jiang Yao's sense of existence gradually became weaker and weaker, as if he was moving from existence to non-existence, from reality to illusion, with a sense of logical disorder.

It seemed like a moment, but also like endless years had passed before Jiang Yao suddenly came to his senses and subconsciously stopped.

His mind reflected on himself, and at this moment, he only felt that his true nature and spirit became easier than ever before, as if he had completed the process of subtraction and emptiness, and completely transcended it.

At the same time, Jiang Yao's understanding of the path to Daoguo seemed to have been inspired by something special, and he vaguely grasped the essence of subtraction and emptiness.

At this time, his figure also came to the end of the hall and stopped in front of an ancient inner hall.

The inner hall was hazy and illusory. Although the door was open, Jiang Yao could not see clearly what was going on inside. It was as if this inner hall was something that should not exist between heaven and earth.

'Is this the power of Tao Fruit?'

As his thoughts turned, Jiang Yao subconsciously stretched out his hand and found that his current state was completely different from that in normal circumstances, and even completely different from that of the Buddha.

'Buddha?'

Thinking of 'Buddha', Jiang Yao seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly reacted. He subconsciously looked beside him, but found that the little monk with red lips and white teeth was gone.

Ok?
Huh?
Where is Buddha?
They clearly entered Zixiao Palace together, how come they disappeared in the blink of an eye?

Jiang Yao reflected his mind on the sea of ​​soul and recalled the past. Then he realized that it seemed that the Buddha had disappeared since he entered the hall. It was just that he had just fallen into some special state and did not notice that the little monk was missing.

'this'

Before Jiang Yao could think too much, an old and calm voice suddenly came from the inner hall: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, since you are already here, come in and have a chat!"

"Is it Hongjun Taoist? Or Taoist Master?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yao's heart moved. He temporarily suppressed the thoughts in his mind and stopped thinking about the Buddha.

It goes without saying that the disappearance of the Buddha's figure is related to the owner of the Zixiao Palace.

He was able to keep both himself and the Buddha unaware. Even if there was no Dao Master inside, there must be an existence comparable to Dao Fruit.

Anyway, we are already here, there is no point in thinking too much!

With this thought in mind, Jiang Yao calmly stepped into the inner hall.

嗡

A buzzing sound was heard, and Jiang Yao felt as if his own way of existence had suddenly changed.

At this moment, everything about Jiang Yao seemed to become illusory. However, Jiang Yao's true spirit reflected himself, and he could clearly sense that everything about him was real, whether it was the embryonic form of the Tao fruit, the true spirit, the physical body, or the power of the Tao sacrifice. All of them were real.

Jiang Yao raised his head subconsciously, his gaze passed through the void, and saw an old Taoist priest with white hair and beard sitting on the main seat in the hall.

The old Taoist priest was looking at Jiang Yao calmly at this moment. There was no special aura revealed. He looked ordinary, just like an ordinary old Taoist priest.

However, the moment he saw the old Taoist priest with white hair and beard, Jiang Yao seemed to have seen the great truth and the essence of the operation of all things. Everything seemed to exist in the ordinary.

Great simplicity!

"It is indeed the Daozun!"

Seeing this familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar figure, this thought subconsciously emerged in Jiang Yao's mind.

This was not the first time that Jiang Yao had seen the old Taoist priest, but this time the old Taoist priest gave him a completely different feeling from last time.

At this moment, Jiang Yao's heart moved, and he discovered that the ancient coffin in his body was actually vibrating slightly, revealing a mysterious aura.

In the ancient coffin, there seemed to be a hazy figure floating up and down, emitting a supreme aura that surpassed everything, and wanted to compete with the old Taoist priest in front of him.

嗡

As if sensing the changes in Jiang Yao's internal energy, the old Taoist's originally calm eyes suddenly became deep.

In an instant, the old Taoist priest, who seemed ordinary in Jiang Yao's perception, became extremely tall and lofty. He was clearly right in front of him, but he had an unfathomable feeling that he could never be reached.

Even with Jiang Yao's current level, he was like a mayfly compared to the sky in front of the old Taoist priest. He was completely unable to sense the other party's strength.

"It is indeed a Dao fruit!"

As his thoughts turned, the power of the two systems, the embryonic form of the Dao fruit and the Dao fruit position in Jiang Yao's body, seemed to be affected by the old Taoist priest in front of him and the hazy figure in the ancient coffin. They began to undergo subtle adjustments and became more mysterious and harmonious.

"interesting!"

After a while, a calm voice sounded, and the depth in the old Taoist's eyes dissipated, and his aura returned to normal.

On the other side, awakened by the words of the old Taoist priest, Jiang Yao's heart moved, he calmed the ancient coffin in his body, then bowed and said: "Greetings, Taoist priest!"

"Ah."

Nodding slightly, Dao Zun smiled and said, "Looking at Daoist Friend Jiang's expression, I'm afraid you've already guessed that you'll meet me!"

"Fellow Daoist, you are joking!"

Focusing his gaze on the familiar yet unfamiliar old Taoist priest in front of him, Jiang Yao's eyes were filled with curiosity and inquiry, and he said in an inexplicable tone: "Before, Jiang was just guessing, but the fruit of the Tao is unknowable and undiscussable. If you say it, it's wrong, and if you think it's absurd, Jiang thought this time it wouldn't be as I thought, but I didn't expect to actually meet fellow Taoist here!"

Having said that, Jiang Yao looked around and found that there was no Buddha in sight, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.

Didn’t the Buddha come?
Or was he locked up by the Taoist Master?

"Is Daoist Jiang looking for Daoist Buddha?"

As if he understood Jiang Yao's thoughts, the Taoist Master chuckled and said, "Don't worry, fellow Buddha is fine. I'm just letting him stay alone for a while and not letting him show up in the world for the time being."

"I've been locked up in the dark room again!"

After hearing Dao Zun's words, this thought subconsciously emerged in Jiang Yao's mind.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yao couldn't help feeling helpless.

What an unlucky guy!
Even the Taoist Master doesn’t like him!
Although his thoughts were turning, Jiang Yao's expression did not change much.

Just turn it off!

Anyway, the Buddha was used to being locked up, so he didn't care about this.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yao once again turned his gaze to the old Taoist priest in front of him, and asked curiously: "Fellow Daoist, if I am not mistaken, this world is related to you?"

Although he already had a guess in his mind, Jiang Yao also needed to find the old Taoist priest in front of him to confirm it in person.

"That's right!"

Dao Zun nodded and said with a smile: "Just as Daoist Fellow Jiang said, this world was created by the old Taoist himself. It can be regarded as a testing ground for testing roads."

"Proving ground?"

When the whisper sounded, Jiang Yao's eyes showed a look of "as expected".

Seeing the change in Jiang Yao's expression, Dao Zun showed a trace of emotion in his eyes and said: "The Great Dao is boundless. Even if you have achieved the Dao Fruit, you have only exceeded the limitations of the original world. You have not really reached the end of the Great Dao. You and I are both on the road of seeking the Dao."

Having said this, Dao Zun turned his gaze, and tremendous changes occurred in the entire inner hall in an instant, forming a vast and boundless chaotic world.

The next moment, chaos opened up, countless pictures flowed, one era after another appeared, countless figures rose and fell in it, dominating the development of one era after another.

Among them are Taiyi, Sanqing, Jieyin, Zhunti, Fuxi, and Nuwa.
Jiang Yao's figure transcends the entire world, looking down at the changes of countless eras in the world, and feeling the rules and changes in the cycles of each era.

This is the historical development of the universe in this place. With a thought from the Tao Master, it was reproduced here, forming a complete multiverse of universes in a small space.

"After coming to this world, do you feel that it is very similar to our original world?"
