I have a book of salvation

Chapter 876 The Way of Life and Death, the Realm of Unity (5.3k two-in-one)

The last wish of the Red Bird was to save the Emperor of the Divine Court who was trapped on the way to heaven.

But now, the countless heavenly soldiers and gods of the heavens have all been destroyed, and the Taoist priest in immortal clothes who seized the throne of the Yuanshi Daozun has also been swallowed by the purple gold red gourd and turned into pus, deader than dead.

Under such circumstances, the Emperor of the Divine Court Zhang Bairen was saved, so the last wish of the Red Bird was also fulfilled at this moment.

In the inner scene of the Divine Stem, the golden light of the Sutra of Transferring People burst out, and an endless and magnificent light fell down, instantly covering Yu Chen completely.

Then, Yu Chen only felt that his soul had left his body, left the world, left the void, and left everything.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a long and endless river, with no beginning and no end, as if it had been flowing forever.

Yu Chen, who had had several experiences, recognized it at a glance. This was the long river of time that existed in the dark. It had been winding and flowing since the beginning of the world, and had gone through countless years. All the changes, stories, joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows were all imprinted in it.

And his soul went upstream along the long river of time and saw many past events that had happened.

The battle between heaven and man, the battle of falling heaven, the battle of chaos in the three realms... countless life and death separations, and the waves passed by his eyes.

Until finally, it stopped in the vast void.

This is the beginning of everything, and the end of the long river of time. It is the boundless chaos, the boundless nothingness, and the beginning when chaos was not divided, yin and yang were not formed, and earth, fire, water and wind were not born.

Yu Chen was not unfamiliar with this scene. When he first understood the method of mediation and creation, he crossed the long river of time and came to the beginning of the world, so he was not surprised or shocked, but just waited quietly, waiting for the reward of the Sutra of Transferring People.

After he came to the time before the creation of the world, his journey also reached the destination. An infinite suction force surged out of the chaos and sucked his soul in.

Then he heard a terrifying thunder.

Boom! ! !

With the first thunder between heaven and earth, the great cause of the creation of heaven and earth began.

Yu Chen once again witnessed the separation of chaos, the opposition of yin and yang, and the birth of earth, fire, water and wind.

Countless millions of years later.

Living beings began to be born.

At first, they were small living beings like dots of light, and they didn't even have consciousness, but they represented the starting point of all living beings in the future. These living beings rose and fell between yin and yang, from birth to death, but in the blink of an eye, but they truly completed the evolution from life to death.

Gradually, more lives began to be born, trees, insects, shrimps... They were born, existed, and finally died after exhausting all their vitality.

And Yu Chen was like a bystander, taking in all the changes of life and death.

Life, from nothing, can be called evolution.

Death, from something to nothing, disappears into ashes.

At first, Yu Chen only saw this appearance.

But as the changes of life and death were played out in front of him again and again, he gradually discovered that it was not that simple.

The remains of the dead creatures were re-integrated into the world and became the starting point for the birth of new life. And these new lives will also be extinguished at some point in the future and turned into fertilizer and soil, and then breed more new life.

All of this is like a circle, repeating over and over again, never ending.

In Yu Chen's eyes, this "circle" that includes all the creatures between heaven and earth is divided into two parts.

The upper part is life, and the lower part is death.

But the strange thing is that this life and death are obviously opposite, but they are connected from beginning to end, just like the yin and yang, which are obviously contradictory, but complement each other.

After seeing the wheel of life and death again, Yu Chen's soul was like a sculpture, motionless.

The only reaction was that the eyes reflected the non-existent wheel of life and death, which cycled endlessly and reincarnated endlessly.

In the dark, his perception of the wheel of life and death became deeper and deeper, from only seeing the appearance at the beginning to gradually understanding and realizing it later.

He penetrated the essence of life and death.

There was no time in the illusion. I don’t know how long it took. Finally, at a certain moment, Yu Chen, who was motionless like a sculpture, suddenly moved. She raised her hands and drew a black and white circle in the air as if unconsciously.

His hands kept evolving, and the wheel of life and death kept rotating.

The upper half was life, the lower half was death, and it cycled back and forth, endlessly.

Then his hands suddenly stopped, and the cycle of life and death stopped.

Yu Chen, who entered that magical state, suddenly evolved his hands in the opposite direction.

At that moment... life and death were reversed!

It was like time was reversed, the dead were born, and the living were dead.

And this was after reversing the wheel of life and death, Yu Chen heard another terrifying thunder!

Boom!

Wake up suddenly!

Open your eyes!

At this moment, he has returned to his divine vine from the long river of time at the end of the years.

The extremely long and lonely memory seemed to disappear, and did not cause any harm to his soul, but vaguely, Yu Chen seemed to understand something.

He frowned, sat cross-legged, and then began to evolve his hands according to the remaining memories in the illusion.

In the void, a perfect circle of black and white was drawn.

The upper part of the circle is life, full of vitality, birds and beasts, all kinds of things in the frosty sky, and endless prosperity; while the lower part of the circle is death, with corpses everywhere, a desolate and cold scene, suffocating. Life and death keep rotating, just like reincarnation, never stopping.

Suddenly, just like in a dream, Yu Chen stopped his hand abruptly.

At that moment, the wheel of life and death stopped turning.

And when he tried to reverse life and death, the wheel of life and death turned in the opposite direction as in the dream. From life to death, it became from death to life.

In Yu Chen's eyes, the left eye was full of vitality, and the right eye was withered and dead, losing all human emotions, as if it had turned into the law of heaven and earth, the reincarnation of life and death.

Time passed bit by bit, but he didn't know the changes of time.

Until half a day had passed on the way to heaven, the ancient god Di Ting became more and more worried, and just without Yu Chen's order, he sent a wisp of thought into his divine vine.

As soon as he descended, the ancient god showed a look of horror.

It was as if he had seen something great that could not be described.

Then the horror in his eyes turned into relief.

"Your Majesty, I have realized it again..."

At this moment, Yu Chen put down his hands, and with that moment, the meaning of life and death in his eyes instantly disappeared, and turned into human eyes again.

"Ding?" Hearing the ancient god Di Ting sighing like this, he asked, "What did you say?"

"Life and death." Di Ting's eyes were shining, and there was also a look of nostalgia in them. He exhaled a long breath and said, "- or, the way of life and death."

Then, he told everything.

It is said that the emperor of the three realms not only thought about the three realms, but also controlled the way of heaven.

The emperor of the Shenting advocated that Bai Ren controlled the way of heaven of "nothingness" and "creation", so his method of grasping the creation of the rotation could create something out of nothing, evolve the world, and control everything.

As the emperor of the Three Realms, the Emperor of Fengdu controls the "life" and "death" of all living beings, and controls the great way of life and death. Turning his hand means life, and turning his hand means death. The wheel of life and death that Yu Chen comprehended is the embodiment of the way of life and death.

It means that from that moment on, he is above life and death, controls life and death, and controls life and death - this is also the foundation of the Emperor of Fengdu, one of the emperors of the Three Realms.

After listening to the explanation of the ancient god Di Ting, Yu Chen also understood it.

—— After the second-grade last wish of Zhuque, the last wish to save the God Emperor Zhang Bairen, was fulfilled, the Sutra of Deliverance gave him everything that the Emperor of Fengdu comprehended before he became a Taoist.

Let him also comprehend the way of life and death and control life and death.

"I feel... quite magical now..." Yu Chen was immersed in the wheel of life and death, muttering.

"More than that." Di Ting shook his head gently and looked up at the sky, "Your Majesty, please look."

Yu Chen was stunned, raised his head, and his eyes penetrated the divine vine and saw the real world. Just look at the sky, endless dense runes are spread all over, surrounded by layers of seals, and chains made of pure Tao are flying all over the sky...

Everything in the world has become extremely simple in his eyes.

Peel off the appearance and see the essence.

This world, this world, is a skeleton built by countless rules and Tao, filled with flesh and blood called "life".

"Is this...Hedao?"

Yu Chen took a deep breath, his face was full of doubts!

Previously, he reached the state of perfection of Tianzun, so he naturally had to prepare for the impact of the state of Hedao.

So after some understanding, he knew the true meaning of the state of Hedao, which is...to merge into the world with his own Tao!

In the realm of Tianzun, the Qi refiners will comprehend the Tao that belongs only to them.

The threshold of the Heavenly Venerable Realm to break through the realm of the Dao is to combine their own Dao with the Dao of Heaven and Earth!

The Dao is in Heaven!

From then on, the world became extremely simple in their eyes. They could see those "Dao" with their naked eyes, see those "rules" clearly, and use them.

This is the realm of the Dao.

"If ordinary Heavenly Venerable Perfect Qi Refiners want to break through, they need to combine their own Dao with Heaven and achieve the realm of the Dao."

The ancient god Di Ting explained, "But your Majesty's Dao of life and death is one of the great Daos, so how can you say that you are in harmony with the Dao? In addition, you have broken through to the perfection of the Heavenly Venerable. This understanding of the Dao of life and death is naturally a natural result, and you have achieved the Dao of the Venerable."

Yu Chen suddenly realized and was in a good mood.

But he was not happy for a long time.

Suddenly, his brows frowned.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Di Ting's face also sank.

"That guy is a little... weird." Yu Chen responded, stretched out his hand to cut through the door of the void, opened the gate of ghosts, and came to the underworld.

On the banks of the Yellow Springs River, Zhuque had crossed the river and went to the Judge's Hall to be judged.

Before leaving, she asked Huangquan to bring a message to Yu Chen - thank you.

After delivering the message, Huangquan returned to the turbid spring water.

And Yu Chen also went to the Eighteen Layers of Hell.

The first layer, the Knife Mountain Hell.

Looking up, in the endless knife mountain transformed by the snow-bright sky knife, countless ghosts were suffering in it, wailing hideously, crying bitterly.

—— When Yu Chen saw this scene for the first time, he was also shocked.

But over the years, he has gotten used to it.

His eyes swept around and finally stopped at a corner of the endless knife mountain. A pale human-shaped ghost without facial features was in the knife mountain, which was out of tune with the surrounding suffering ghosts.

——He and those Heavenly Swords seemed to be in two different dimensions. The swords of the Sword Mountain Hell could not hurt him. He was imprisoned in the swords by chains, like a sculpture.

Yu Chen naturally knew this ghost——the Yuanshi Daozun was swallowed by the purple gold red gourd, and after turning into pus, his soul was thrown into the underworld.

In this case where the enemy is unknown, regardless of whether he has committed any sins, it is naturally necessary to torture him and obtain more information.

And the underworld happened to have the most severe and terrible punishment in the three realms-the Eighteen Purgatory.

So he was naturally brought here.

And the pale human figure without facial features in front of him is the true appearance of the culprit who seized the throne of Yuanshi Daozun.

But just when those ghosts were sharpening their knives, they suddenly found that the Eighteen Purgatory could not affect him.

Whether it was the sea of ​​fire, the oil pan, the copper pillar, or even the eighteenth level of the hell, none of them could cause him any harm, and naturally he did not feel any pain.

The ghost messenger beside him was quite puzzled and bowed to report: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty! It is not that we neglected our duties, but it is really that this sinful ghost cannot be punished at all."

Yu Chen nodded and asked the ghost without facial features.

The other party did not respond at all.

Yu Chen frowned.

He knew that the Eighteen Hells were created by the Emperor Fengdu who collected the evils of the world. It can be said that in the three realms, all living beings, as long as they exist in the form of ghosts, cannot escape the torture of the Eighteen Hells.

——Even if they are ancient immortals, as long as their souls are not scattered, their souls will be skinned when they come to the Eighteen Hells!

But the pale ghost in front of him, who has no illusions, the usurper who has seized the power and throne of Yuanshi Daozun, is not affected by the Eighteen Hells at all.

Why is this?

Yu Chen asked Di Ting who was standing by. Even Di Ting, who was known for his profound knowledge and omniscience, shook his head silently.

Obviously, he didn't know the reason either.

After pondering for a while, Yu Chen took a deep breath and ordered the ghost to imprison the pale faceless ghost first and think of a way later.

Then, his thoughts returned to his body and returned to the road to heaven.

——According to Di Ting, he had realized the way of life and death and had been on the road to heaven for half a day, and everyone was waiting for him.

After his thoughts returned, the first thing he heard was the low sobbing.

The atmosphere was depressing and sad.

Looking around.

Only to see that the six ancient races had divided into camps to rest, and many ancient creatures were sitting cross-legged to recover from the injuries they had suffered before.

There were also many members of the ancient races, holding cold corpses in their arms, with sad expressions - most of these corpses were the younger generation of the ancient races.

When the road to heaven was opened, many ancient races migrated here, not for fighting, but for returning to heaven.

So when the whole family moved, those young people with low cultivation naturally followed.

But in the previous war with the heavenly soldiers and generals, swords were blind, water and fire were ruthless, and many of these young ancient races were affected and died.

They are the hope for the future of these ancient races and the treasures in the hands of their parents.

Now they died innocently on the road to heaven. As blood relatives, of course, it is difficult to accept.

When Yu Chen woke up, Liuer Shenzun also came forward with a corpse. When he looked closely, he saw that in his arms was the corpse of a handsome young monkey, which had lost all vitality.

"Meet your majesty." Liuer Shenzun bowed, and he was pale all over, and now he looked even older.

Yu Chen responded and looked at the corpse in his arms. Suddenly, he felt familiar-wasn't this the golden little monkey on Taoshan? At the flower and fruit feast, he was in Yu Chen's arms, quite clingy. At that time, he had just woken up and looked like a little monkey. Now that he has aged, he has regained his original figure and is very heroic.

But now... he is dead?

"The young master has long been revived, and has also restored his original realm, Taoism and appearance during this time."

The Six-Eared God sighed: "He had fought before, and he didn't have to die, but in order to protect his people, he was hit by a fire spear, and was pierced through the chest by the three-eyed divine light, and was seriously injured. Finally, he was whipped by the divine whip and finally died."

After a pause, he continued: "The young master has always remembered His Majesty. When he saw His Majesty before, he wanted to greet His Majesty, but unfortunately the situation was critical at that time..."

As he spoke, the old monkey sighed and was sad.

Yu Chen saw this and felt sad.

Looking behind the old monkey, the corpses of many ancient races were already cold.

But suddenly, his heart moved.

The old monkey saw Yu Chen's expression and comforted him: "Your Majesty, please don't be sad. The dead cannot be resurrected, and so are our clan..."

Yu Chen shook his head and interrupted him: "Who said that?"

The old monkey was stunned, "What?"

"The dead cannot be resurrected?" Yu Chen murmured: "No, the dead can be resurrected."

The old monkey was stunned after hearing this.

Then he saw Yu Chen stretched out a hand, stretched it forward, with the back of his hand facing up.

In just a moment, the old monkey saw Yu Chen's eyes suddenly become empty, losing the emotions belonging to living beings, his left eye was surrounded by a vast vitality, and his right eye was filled with endless terrifying death.

At that moment, his appearance and form clearly did not change at all.

But the feeling of the whole person given to the old monkey has changed from the flesh-and-blood person before to something indescribably great.

——The supreme heaven that governs all life and death, withering and prosperity!

Buzz——

Accompanied by a terrifying roar that seemed to come from an infinite distance, an infinitely huge wheel of life and death was suspended in the sky!

The top is life, the bottom is death.

"His Majesty……"

The old monkey seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes were filled with ecstasy!

But Yu Chen ignored him and just turned his hand slowly!

In an instant, the huge wheel of life and death above the sky slowly reversed!

And with this reversal, a magical and terrifying change happened!

Just look at the already cold corpse of the little monkey in the arms of the old monkey, and it comes back to life bit by bit!

With the temperature!

Got a pulse!

With breath!

When Yu Chen's hand was completely turned over, his eyes that had been closed forever slowly opened!

The old monkey god just wanted to speak!

But I heard waves of exclamations coming from behind!

Turn around and take a look!

Then I saw the cold corpses of all the dead ancient races rejuvenated!

Back to life!

Blessing the heavens!

At this moment, God Emperor Zhang Bairen, who had closed his eyes and was sitting in meditation, also opened his eyes.

"Turn your hands to survive, turn your hands to die..."

He looked at Yu Chen, who seemed to be the incarnation of the heavenly law of life and death, and let out a long breath,

"Fengdu, you have found your true power..."
