Fortune Teller

Within the Tianzhen Sect.

The cyan figure sat cross-legged, carefully comprehending the mystery deep in the formation pattern.

After seeing the void chessboard, Gu Xiuyun had a new understanding of destiny. When he felt the mystery of destiny in the formation patterns, he suddenly discovered many shortcomings.

"The destiny method of the true master of the Tiankun tribe follows the path of seven emotions, while the destiny method of the true master of the Jade Immortal Realm follows the path of desire."

"Desire does dominate destiny."

"Mortal people seek wealth for profit, compete for power and fame, and fight with each other endlessly. Practitioners pursue wealth, Dharma, and land. Although they are external things, they are also related to the Tao and cannot be separated."

"Every decision is driven by desire..."

"But destiny is not just desire. The mysterious realm of the chaotic mountains and the mysterious destiny in the divine formation have gone astray!"

The more he pondered, the deeper Gu Xiuyun's understanding of fate became.

The True Master of the Tiankun Clan understands destiny with the seven emotions, and the True Master of the Jade Immortal Realm understands destiny with desires. Both paths are right, but they are too one-sided.

In the past, Gu Xiuyun would have felt that the Taoism of the two True Masters was profound and mysterious, and that they were the path to heaven. Now it seems that they are just two narrow paths.

Because he has already seen the real avenue.

There is no Taoism that is more vast, unpredictable, perfect, and pure than the void chessboard...

All words cannot express the greatness of the void chessboard. That is the true avenue of destiny, including seven emotions and six desires, controlling destiny, manipulating destiny...all the paths of cultivation are included in it.

What he has to do is to control one of the chess pieces, then gradually evolve, and then control the entire chess board.

The first chess piece is yourself.

If you don't even transcend yourself, what qualifications do you have to control a complete destiny?

"The key to reaching the seventh level is not to understand the mystery of fate, but to understand myself and have no doubts in my heart. Only then can I control my own destiny."

Gu Xiuyun stood up, his eyes filled with bright light.

He has figured out his way.

If you want to understand the mysteries of the seventh level, the Taoist imprints left by the true masters are only an aid. The most important thing is yourself. The first thing is to understand the past life and solve all the doubts in your heart.

If you don’t even know what you are, how can you control your destiny?

…

“Unknowingly, I have been here for more than two thousand years, and it’s time to leave!”

Gu Xiuyun stood up, bowed towards the sky and saluted, "Senior, the two thousand and three hundred years have come, what do you want me to do?"

"you are leaving?"

The ethereal aura descended and condensed into a white-robed figure. It was a bit blurry and the man and woman could not be clearly seen. Even the great master of the Tianzhen Sect did not know where his lord came from, let alone Gu Xiuyun.

"The younger generation has been realizing for a long time that it is difficult to make progress and wants to seek opportunities elsewhere."

Gu Xiuyun bowed and said.

"That's alright. It's almost time." Xu Miao's breath tore open the void, leading Gu Xiuyun into the fourth level of space and galloping away.

This journey lasted for half a month.

At the speed of the Venerable, it still takes half a month to walk. You can imagine how far away that place is.

Shit!

The void opened and five figures flew out.

In addition to Gu Xiuyun, there are four other sages, namely the sages behind Tianzhen Sect, Qingshui Mountain, Fangcun Tower, and Black Ridge.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, this trip depends on you!"

Venerable Qingshui looked at Gu Xiuyun, hope and longing flashed across his face, "Every thirty thousand years, we will come here to get together, but we have never been able to reach the deepest point. That maze is too weird, maybe it is only fate. Only through mystery can we deduce the most correct way.”

"If even the mystery of fate cannot break through the maze, we can only reluctantly give up and ask the true master for help!"

Venerable Fang Cun shook his head and sighed.

“Without further ado, let’s start!!”

The Venerable Tianzhen Sect said in a deep voice.

The four venerables looked at each other, each took out a strip of jade, overlapping the four pieces to form a swastika shape, and flew into the depths of the void.

call!

The wind suddenly rises, the thunder flashes, and the five elements of light flow uncertainly.

In just a short moment, all seven sources of the Five Elements, Wind and Thunder emerged, the void became extremely turbid, and thick fog enveloped tens of billions of miles in radius. Even the Venerable could not find the way out.

After a long time.

The swastika jade formed a passage a hundred feet wide, and the four sages led Gu Xiuyun in.

At the other end of the passage is an endless starry sky with countless stars suspended in it. The five people stand inside one of the stars and look into the sky, unable to see the end of the starry sky.

"Four seniors, is this the secret realm of the maze?"

Gu Xiuyun looked into the distance with a slightly confused expression. There was no maze in front of him, wasn't it just stars?

"This is a remnant world," Venerable Qingshui said. "Fellow Tianzhen Daoist discovered this world first and found a heritage palace. He found many rare treasures. Later he invited me to enter with him, but then... I can’t find the inheritance palace in the deepest part of the secret realm.”

"Fellow Daoist Gu, the stars under our feet are a maze," Venerable Tianzhen's voice was a little shrill, and it was difficult to tell whether it was a man or a woman. "Each star has twelve statues. If one of them is broken, a corresponding abnormality will appear. Beast creatures, as long as they kill the alien beasts, they can go to the next star."

"We have tried many times, but we can't reach the deepest part of the secret realm." Venerable Black Ridge looked helpless.

"Can't you just travel through the void?" Gu Xiuyun asked doubtfully.

"no."

"The stars are the only safe path. If you leave the stars, the entire remnant world will turn into a killing array." Lord Tianzhen shook his head. "The person who built the remnant world is at least a false world leader who has mastered the five elements of wind and thunder, time and space. He The methods left behind are far beyond what we can resist, and only the True Master can walk in the void."

"I see."

Gu Xiuyun suddenly understood and tried to activate the mystery of fate.

But after just a moment, he shook his head and said, "No, I don't know anything about the changes in the residual world. I don't even understand the movement of the stars. I can't calculate the correct path based on the sixth-grade mystery alone. Four seniors, you Let’s try to take a walk first and let the juniors observe.”

"good!"

Lord Tianzhen smashed a statue casually.

Roar!

The roar of the beast resounded throughout the world, and a giant beast ten thousand feet tall emerged from the depths of the stars. Its shape was exactly the same as the statue, somewhat similar to an ape, but with six arms.

"The strange beasts in the first star won't be too strong. At most, they will only be in the early stage of true artistic conception."

Venerable Qingshui said loudly, "But the further back you go, the stronger the strange beasts will be. We have tried many times, but we can only get through ninety-three stars."

The words have not yet finished.

The divine power suddenly fell, instantly killing the apes and beasts.

The alien beasts turned into bloody water and merged into the depths of the starry sky. The entire void was dyed with a layer of blood. At the same time, a space passage appeared in front of the five people.

"Let's go!!"

Venerable Tianzhen stepped forward, followed closely by Gu Xiuyun, and the other three Venerables followed suit.

Go through the space channel.

The five came to the second star.

The scene in front of me was the same as the first star. The earth was desolate and twelve statues stood in all directions of the star.

"Huh? What's going on??"

Gu Xiuyun frowned slightly. As soon as he stepped onto the star, he felt his whole body sink, and an invisible pressure enveloped his shoulders.

"Do you feel it?"

Venerable Qingshui pointed at the starry sky, "Every time we kill an alien beast, the residual world will become heavier, and the condensed alien beasts will become more powerful, so we can only pass through ninety-three stars at most."

"The blood in the starry sky will take a long time to fade away. We have estimated that it will take at least 30,000 years."

"..."

During the explanation, the four venerables explained the rules of the residual world that they had already figured out clearly.

The twelve statues in the stars are not irregular. In fact, if you can find the right path, there will be an identical statue for every star you walk on.

As long as twelve identical statues are destroyed in succession, you can enter the deepest palace.

When Lord Tian Zhen entered the remnant world, he destroyed twelve statues one after another by mistake before successfully finding the inheritance palace.

"So, at least one of the twelve statues in front of you is correct?"

Gu Xiuyun looked at the four people.

"That's right," Venerable Qingshui nodded. "There are no ape statues in the stars here. It seems we have wasted an opportunity."

"Can't you return to the first star?" Gu Xiuyun asked again.

"No, that is a one-way passage. If we forcefully reverse it, the passage will collapse, and we will leave the stars and enter the starry sky."

The four venerables have already said the consequences of entering the starry sky. Using the residual world as a killing formation, even the venerables would have to lose half their lives, let alone forcefully break into the deepest part of the starry sky.
