Chapter 144 Cultivation of the Way of Salary
In the chaos, while dangers such as chaotic storms are indeed terrifying, what truly chills people is the invasion of those chaotic and disordered laws.
These laws within the chaos lurk like unseen killers, silently taking hold. They are almost imperceptible in ordinary times, seemingly having no effect on anything.
But in reality, a new balance has already been secretly formed. As long as an external force causes this balance to loosen even slightly, it will bring about a devastating disaster.
Compared to the invasion of the laws of chaos, neither the chaotic beasts nor the chaotic storms can be considered a real threat.
This is why the laws and divine powers contained in Yang Jian's unique vertical pupils, once placed in a chaotic environment, can cause far greater destructive power than in the primordial world, their power increasing several times over.
Similarly, the Yin-Yang balance power controlled by Taiqing also possesses the same ability, easily breaking the delicate balance established by the erosion of chaos.
Moreover, the Supreme Sage himself possesses unfathomable and unparalleled strength.
Therefore, according to the original script, Heaven chose Taiqing as the next Dao Ancestor.
After all, as the Dao Ancestor, he not only shoulders the mission of spreading the Dao to all living beings, but also represents the supreme pinnacle of power in the entire prehistoric world.
One must possess sufficient strength to protect the primordial world.
In the endless chaos, nothingness and mist intertwine, like a labyrinth, leaving one with nothing to refer to.
This is why the laws of time and space become extremely chaotic here.
However, the mythological laws that Zhao Xuan controls are not like that.
This law was created by him by combining the power of the Limitless version of the Flower Blooming Moment with the Golden Flower Domain and the power of Limitless.
Its original intention was to be able to adapt to different worlds.
Therefore, when he first ventured into this chaotic realm, he had already made minor adjustments to his own laws in order to better integrate into and adapt to the chaos.
With his profound understanding and application of the four fundamental laws of motion, Zhao Xuan successfully discovered a particle that is exceptionally stable in chaos.
This particle is like a beacon in the darkness. He uses it as a reference standard to further refine his mythological laws.
In the primordial world, Zhao Xuan achieved a major breakthrough in the laws.
Upon re-entering the chaos, he was able to discover even smaller and more stable particles.
Using this particle as a reference point, the laws of mythology were adjusted more deeply, making them more adaptable to the chaotic world.
After adjustments, he was able to clearly distinguish the changes in time and space after the chaos.
This ability is extremely important in the chaos; it can even be described as an incredibly powerful force.
Without such an ability, anyone could easily become a chaotic beast, gradually devoured and assimilated by the laws of chaos, ultimately losing themselves and forever sinking into the abyss of chaos from which they cannot escape.
The reasons behind this are actually quite complex.
In the midst of chaos, the reason why many mysterious and powerful beings choose to create a certain civilization or construct a world is actually to establish a coordinate system.
At this moment, Zhao Xuan was staring intently at the brand new world that had suddenly appeared before him.
This world is thousands or even tens of thousands of times larger than the primordial world.
Such a vast world must have been created by some extraordinary and unfathomable being.
However, despite the unparalleled awe this world brought, Zhao Xuan sensed that this world acted purely on instinct, without any fluctuation of the aura of the Great Dao.
This means that the creators of this world are not currently in it.
Such situations are both rare and common in chaos.
For cultivators who have reached the level of Grand Luo Golden Immortal, creating a world is the simplest and most effective way to cultivate.
Therefore, it can be said that countless worlds exist within chaos.
When the Primordial Golden Immortal, the Primordial Taiji Golden Immortal, and the Hongmeng Taiji Golden Immortal created the world, their fundamental purpose was often to further promote the derivation and evolution of the laws through this method.
However, once one's cultivation reaches the level of the Primordial Golden Immortal, the situation undergoes a dramatic change.
At this point, the laws have been almost exhausted, and simply creating a world is no longer enough to achieve further evolution.
Therefore, those who have reached this level need to seek other more effective methods and paths in order to continue exploring the true meaning of the Tao.
The purpose of the Great Golden Immortal of the Primordial Chaos in creating the world was no longer to evolve laws and promote cultivation, but more to protect and care for those who followed in their footsteps and pursued the truth of the Great Dao.
The so-called "Fengdao" is like Pangu and the three thousand demon gods in mythology.
Pangu and the three thousand demon gods were all great beings who tirelessly strived to reach the realm of the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal.
During these long years, no one could see any hope of a breakthrough, so the three thousand demon gods chose to sacrifice themselves, giving all their power to help Pangu improve the foundation of the primordial world.
When Pangu successfully attained the realm of the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal, the three thousand demon gods who had sacrificed everything for him would naturally receive his gratitude and compensation.
Therefore, they would use the divine powers of the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortals to revive them and grant them a new opportunity to attain enlightenment.
However, even if a Daoist who has attained enlightenment sacrifices himself to serve others with the Dao he has comprehended, his spiritual realm will fall below the level of Hunyuan (Primordial Chaos) after he is resurrected.
Starting anew, embarking once more on the path of cultivation.
In order to enable these cultivators to better recover their strength and continue their journey, they created a unique world.
This world is like a huge sanctuary, where those who cultivate the Dao can find refuge and cultivate in peace.
Moreover, those great cultivators who break through to the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal realm will wander in the chaos in order to understand cause and effect, constantly capturing other cultivators and other worlds, and integrating them into the world they have created anew.
He used these beings as nourishment, continuously supplying them to his group of Daoists to help them break through to the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal realm.
This is why, within the chaos, there are numerous worlds of extremely large scale, yet lacking the Great Dao.
To put it bluntly, this is actually a deliberate reservation of the Great Dao position, so that those who belong to the Dao can more easily achieve transcendence.
When encountering such a world, the wise thing to do is to stay far away and not get too close.
It is important to understand that these kinds of worlds were destined to have a unique attribute from the very beginning—the pursuit of the Way.
It must be remembered that the so-called "Taoist practice" actually involves entrusting one's life and death entirely to the person being practiced, which is an extreme form of practice.
Taking the primordial world as an example, if Pangu failed to successfully cultivate to the realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal within three immeasurable eons, then the three thousand demon gods would be forever extinguished, and Pangu himself would also have no chance of rebirth.
Worse still, no one can guarantee that once those who have been granted the Dao achieve perfect enlightenment and become Primordial Limitless Golden Immortals, they will still be willing to be brought back to life.
Ultimately, the simplest and most effective way to completely resolve karma is to make one party in the karma disappear from the world forever. Just like the karma between Hongyun in the primordial world and the two Western Saints.
Therefore, such a world is specially constructed for those who seek the Dao, disregarding even life and death in their pursuit of it.
Here, in order to cultivate the Great Dao, people will have no bottom line, and the world will inevitably fall into endless bloody battles.
In Zhao Xuan's keen perception, the world before him was like a bottomless and enormous black hole, frantically drawing vital nutrients from the chaos.
The chaotic beasts, who had always relied on the world as their food source, were still captured by the powerful aura emanating from this mysterious world, even though they were hundreds of millions of miles away. They were forcibly sucked into this world.
Before this world, the roles of offense and defense have shifted. Those terrifying chaotic beasts that originally lived by devouring the world have now transformed into prey and food for this world.
Chaotic beasts below the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal in the Hongmeng Taiji Realm actually possess no intelligence whatsoever.
When they roam the chaos in groups, it looks like a massive march.
These chaotic beasts will not hesitate to destroy and devour any world that stands in their way.
However, if a certain world happens to be outside their predetermined path, then even if that world is within reach, these chaotic beasts will absolutely not easily change their course, nor will they show any interest in or attack that world that is so close at hand.
This is a protective mechanism that exists within chaos.
If the Chaos Beast dares to recklessly engage in destructive activities, then in the end, only the figure of the Chaos Beast will likely remain in this chaotic realm.
Why is it that only those who have reached the realm above Hunyuan can carve out their own world in the chaos?
The reason is actually quite simple: to bestow upon the world the attribute of primordial chaos.
Once the primordial energy is acquired, the entire world becomes a unified whole, and the internal flow of energy becomes airtight, with no risk of leakage.
To these chaotic beasts, a complete world, in their perception, is not much different from an ordinary fruit tree by the roadside.
Imagine that when a chaotic beast encounters a tree branch blocking its path, it might simply move the branch aside as if it were an obstacle.
