Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 769: In the Biyou Palace, Shangqing asks

"Saint, this world originally existed in Guixu. The origin of heaven and earth can only decrease, not increase."

"And the human race's weapon of war is a complete monster that burns the origin of heaven and earth."

"If this trend continues, this world will be destroyed sooner or later."

"In such a situation, why doesn't the saint do anything?" In the Biyou Palace, Ao Bing looked curiously at the Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun in front of him.

The immortal gods and mortals have different concepts of time - for mortals, the time when heaven and earth collapse will be countless tens of thousands of years later. By that time, they will have long since turned into dust and decayed soil, so they naturally won't care about the future.

But for the immortal gods, no matter how far into the future they are, it is no different from tomorrow.

No immortal or god would not care about this tomorrow of destruction that is visible and tangible and is almost destined to come.

In particular, based on Ao Bing's understanding of several saints, what these saints pursued was the eternal existence of heaven and earth - under such circumstances, they ignored the current situation and turned a blind eye.

This really puzzled Ao Bing.

However, the response from Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun made Ao Bing tremble all over.

"Isn't this world, this space and time destined to be destroyed?"

"If there is no destruction of this world, where will the prosperity of the next world come from?" Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun raised his eyes, his expression full of compassion.

In the stagnant time and space, he looked at the many disciples in the Biyou Palace and the countless living beings outside the Biyou Palace.

With the saints suppressing the long river of time and space, the Daluo cannot see the future, but the saints know the future as clearly as the lines in their palms.

After all, it was they who had reversed reality and illusion with their own hands, and pushed countless time and space into the abyss.

"Even Daluo has the ability to go back in time, let alone us?"

"Since your birth, this world has fallen into ruins. Whenever this world is about to perish, my senior brother will force time and space to reverse."

"This world of Guixu will forever be in Guixu. Rather than saying it is destruction, it is better to say it is permanent, trapped in this cycle."

"All living things and all things return to this. Therefore, the birth and death of this space and time, every cycle, is a destruction of the spirituality of all things, and the true spirit of all things will become more and more ignorant."

"Except for Daluo, there are no exceptions."

“Therefore, only when this killing calamity turns, and the boiling human hearts and emotions during the killing calamity, can the ignorance of the true spirit be resisted, so that the living beings between heaven and earth will not be in a state of confusion.”

Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun spoke about the nature of this killing calamity.

This is not only a means to make up for the origin of heaven and earth and continue the existence of heaven and earth, but also a way to allow the creatures in this world to remain "awake" between cycles.

"Of course, during this process, some fellow Taoists noticed the flaws in the rotation."

"Some of these fellow Taoists who have sensed the cycle will choose to escape to Guixu and fall asleep in Guixu to escape this endless cycle."

“Some will also accumulate the essence of heaven and earth in the world, trying to escape from this world when we rotate heaven and earth.”

"As for the former, we will leave marks on their bodies, allowing them to awaken in the new heaven beyond."

"As for the latter, we can only kill them."

“But even though we are saints, we still have little time to spare when the heaven and earth are rotating. Therefore, it is inevitable that some survivors will escape from the heaven and earth and return to the abyss.” Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun sighed.

"Junior doesn't understand." Ao Bing frowned and pondered the information in the words of Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun. After a long time, he spoke again.

The origin of heaven and earth is something that concerns how long a heaven and earth can exist. It goes without saying how precious it is.

but……

"Since this world is doomed to perish, the other world has already appeared."

"Then why don't the saints directly extract the remaining origin of this world to fill the other world after the collapse of this world, but instead let this world rotate back and forth to completely consume the origin?" Ao Bing asked doubtfully.

"Moreover, the origin of heaven and earth cannot be created out of nothing."

"This world rotates again and again. Where does the origin of the world consumed during the rotation come from?"

"It's impossible that when the saint reversed time and space, not only did he not consume the origin of heaven and earth, but he was able to make the exhausted origin of heaven and earth regenerate from nothing."

"If that is true, this world has already existed forever, so why would the saints ask me to live in that other world?"

When Ao Bing asked, he asked about the most crucial point.

The origin of heaven and earth is being consumed no matter what - the only difference is that some things consume more and some things consume less.

Therefore, in his generation, the Great Celestial Lord and other saints would prepare for external wars, seize the origin of heaven and earth from the outside, in order to strengthen heaven and earth itself.

Under such circumstances, the saints of this generation rotated time and space in Guixu, making this time and space in a nearly eternal cycle - when the saints rotated time and space, the heaven and earth at that time, the origin of heaven and earth, had been exhausted, and thus rotated.

But where does the power to rotate time and space, the origin of heaven and earth, come from?
After the cycle of time and space, where does the origin of heaven and earth come from in the reset time and space?
Even for a saint, this is a paradox.

As soon as this question came out, the compassion in Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun's eyes turned into sadness.

"Where does the origin of heaven and earth come from?"

"Of course it comes from my senior brother."

"Since the cycle was restarted, my senior brother has been sitting still in the Heaven Beyond Heaven, crossing the Guixu and connecting to the Primal Chaos, swallowing and spitting out endlessly, but never taking action."

"Until the world collapses, his own origin, along with the power he has absorbed and exhaled, will transform into the origin of the world at the moment the cycle is reset."

“Therefore, Heaven and Earth respect Yuanshi as the most respected.”

“Even though the two Taoist friends from the Western Sect have different paths, they still bow down in front of my senior brother.”

"That's right. All the Taoist friends in this world who know about this matter are especially tolerant in front of the Chan Sect, and are also especially lenient to the Chan Sect's disciples."

The 'fellow Daoists' he was referring to were not others but the Daluo between heaven and earth - the third type of Daluo who understood the cycle of heaven and earth.

He was neither willing to leave alone nor to plunder the origin of heaven and earth. Instead, he was moved by Yuanshi Tianzun's behavior and chose to do the same as Yuanshi Tianzun, absorbing and exhaling vital energy from outside of heaven and earth in order to feed back to Daluo, the origin of heaven and earth.

Of course, what he said, that the origin of heaven and earth came from Yuanshi Tianzun, was only half of the story - in fact, he was the existence that symbolized the end among the saints. The closer heaven and earth were to collapse, the stronger his power would be.

When the world collapsed, his strength was at its limit. So, in fact, when Yuanshi Tianzun rotated the world, a large part of the origin of the world came from Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun at his peak. However, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun was not the kind of person who would brag in front of his juniors, so he suppressed his behavior and did not mention it.

"According to the saint's idea, wouldn't this cycle of reincarnation last forever?" Ao Bing couldn't help but click his tongue.

The existence of immortals and gods will also consume the origin of heaven and earth - however, the speed at which immortals and gods consume the origin of heaven and earth is naturally incomparable to the speed at which human race's war weapons and Luotian artifacts consume the origin of heaven and earth.

Moreover, the vital energy of heaven and earth, the origin of heaven and earth, absorbed and exhaled by immortals and gods, all fall into the immortals and gods' own bodies.

When an immortal god dies, his merits will dissipate, and a considerable portion of the origin of heaven and earth that he has absorbed and exhaled will also return to heaven and earth - this is also one of the essences of the killing calamity.

Normally, only when the immortals and gods have fallen, the origin of heaven and earth in their bodies will be scattered between heaven and earth again.

But according to Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun forcibly extracted the origin of heaven and earth from his own body to replenish heaven and earth... and this behavior has continued for countless cycles of the collapse of heaven and earth... from the past to the future, endlessly, and is not recorded in any history.

Just thinking about it, you can understand the pain involved.

"My senior brother's body in this life is the past that he cut off."

"To use his hypocritical words, although hope lies elsewhere, he originated from this world and should return to this world."

"So, when we were creating the other world, my senior brother cut off his past and left it here, intending to decay with this world."

"That guy is very hypocritical. He said that he owed it to all living things in the world, so he had to repeat the cycle again and again until he had completely worn out his existence before he would stop."

“And I also want to see how many times a saint can recycle a world if he puts all his efforts into it, so I will stay here with him as a witness.” Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun said sarcastically, “Moreover, when he was in charge of the creation and the creation, and the world was destroyed, his strength was at its weakest. If I were not there, how could he stop those dead survivors who wanted to split up?”

"Originally, he was about to decay along with the heaven and earth."

"But this time, there were some unexpected changes."

"First, there was the one from West Kunlun, who looked back on the endless reincarnations of the past and had the posture to ascend to the holy throne."

"And there you are, crossing over from the future."

Having said this, the smile on Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun's face became more and more obvious.

"I never thought that the most useless Guangchengzi could accomplish such a great thing without making any noise."

"If there are no other accidents, this rotation should be the last cycle."

"Or, it was my senior brother who jumped out of the cycle, connecting this world with the next, and connecting the past with the future."

"Or, everything in this Guixu will be submerged in chaos and become an eternal secret."

Hearing this, Ao Bing's eyes and cheeks began to twitch violently.

"I was tricked by Guangchengzi!" At that moment, this was the only thought left in Ao Bing's mind.

Whether it is Nezha or Yang Jian, their situations are easy to solve - but the problem is, according to the words of Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, since Ao Bing stepped into this world, the "future" of this world has had an inexplicable deviation because of Ao Bing's existence.

And now, the direction the future will take also depends on Ao Bing.

He was just a Taiyi who had not even completed the Daluo ritual. How could he bear the regret and unwillingness of this saint?
As if he could see what was in Ao Bing's mind, the words of Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun rang out again.

"If you had not come to this world, the changes in this world would have been caused by Xi Kunlun. Whether the person in Xi Kunlun can step into the holy realm depends on whether he can resolve the cycle of this world."

"Given your relationship with Xi Kunlun, if you want to go back, I think she will not hesitate to join forces with me to send you back to the future."

"Now that I'm here, I have to finish what I have to do." Ao Bing looked helplessly at the Supreme Pure Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable in front of him, "Why would the Saint provoke me with words?"

Go back, how is it possible to go back?

In my mind, I was thinking about what Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun said.

Suddenly, Ao Bing suddenly understood why it was so difficult to achieve the state of "saint".

A saint must become a saint in every past generation.

However, under the unique Pantian, the situation in many past generations was a dead end, just like the generation that Ao Bing was in now.

Pulled around and moved the whole body.

For those Daluo, just getting the chance to become a saint is already extremely difficult. After getting this chance, going back through time and space under the suppression of saints and other Daluo is another difficulty.

Finally, even if one succeeds in tracing back to the past, to attain sainthood in past generations, in the past and in the future, is another hurdle.

This is the difficulty of becoming a saint.

The further you go in time, the more unimaginable the difficulty of becoming a saint becomes.

Just like the "past" where Ao Bing is now, this is an infinitely repeating past because of the obsession of the saint Yuanshi Tianzun.

If there is nothing else to untie this knot in this period of time and space, then the origin of heaven and earth in this time and space is simply not enough to support the birth of a saint - unless the Queen Mother of the West imitates some Daluo and accumulates enough origin of heaven and earth before the annihilation of heaven and earth, and then at the moment when the heaven and earth collapse and Yuanshi Tianzun rotates the heaven and earth, she attacks and kills Yuanshi Tianzun, and obtains enough origin of heaven and earth from Yuanshi Tianzun.

But if he did so, it would be another layer of cause and effect, and on his way to becoming a saint, he would definitely be blocked by Yuanshi Tianzun with all his strength.

"Well, you've finally come." Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun clapped his hands and sighed, "You are a man with great ambition."

"However, the knot of heaven and earth cannot be untied by relying on mental energy alone."

"Saint, please rest assured. Even if I cannot untie this knot, I can always find someone who can." Ao Bing responded.

A wonderful idea suddenly emerged in his mind.

"Okay, okay." Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun clapped his hands and smiled, then stretched out his hand forward, and a pool of thunder appeared in front of Ao Bing.

In the middle of the thunder pool, a green lotus blooms.

"Let's go!"

Ao Bing immediately fell into the thunder pool.

In an instant, the world completely unfolded before Ao Bing.
