Chapter 1247 The Origin of Life and Death (First Update)
Seeing this situation, the Asura Ancestor, who was willing to take the bait and only wanted a glimmer of life, would never miss this opportunity. The terrifying demon body with nine heads and a thousand eyes instantly glowed with a strange light, and the flames covering the whole body burned fiercely. The feeling of emptiness and weakness disappeared, revealing an abnormal strength.
At this moment, he used the secret method to release the body of half god and half demon, and exchanged the rapid elapse of the remaining life span and the gradual disintegration of the body for the return of power to the peak.
If he fails, he will die!
Either die today or live from now on!
A dark red and nearly black light flashed, and the Asura Ancestor had followed Huang Quan and thrown into the vortex transformed from the origin of life and death.
Meng Qi did the same. Regardless of the possible damage to Huang Quan's skeleton, he squeezed out all the remaining power in each bone. The whole body was surrounded by thick and rich blood-yellow mist. He swept across the sky like a demon god and stepped into the strange vortex that turned from colorless to black and white.
Anyway, it was an external thing to him!
After him, the red clouds pierced the sky, and the Blood Killing Taoist successfully threw himself into the vortex before it shrank and the origin disappeared.
Because there were two "tall men" in front of him, the Asura Ancestor and Meng Qi, the power absorbed by the Pure Land was relatively small, and he still maintained a certain level, without having to use magical powers to destroy his flesh and blood body.
The strange vortex was cold and warm, and Meng Qi felt as if he had penetrated the chaotic time and space, and the surroundings were sometimes condensed, sometimes flying, sometimes slow, and sometimes surging.
Such feelings changed continuously, and Meng Qi could hardly measure how many moments he had gone through.
Unconsciously, his "Yellow Spring True Body" shook, got rid of the chaotic feelings, and truly entered the "origin of life and death".
What would be the "origin of life and death"?
Nothing!
To be precise, there is nothing that can be seen by the eyes, heard by the ears, felt by the skin, and touched by the spirit!
All concepts and cognitions in the outside world no longer exist here.
What is color? What is sound wave? What is consciousness? What is the direction?
How can the concepts and words that are born after birth, rely on experience and knowledge, and rely on physical supernatural powers describe this shortcut?
But Meng Qi had a subtle feeling at this time. His life span was passing quickly, and his body and consciousness were irreversibly rushing towards death!
He was not in a hurry. The old cognitive model faded like a tide, and he rebuilt it based on his feelings.
In a sudden bang, the surroundings were no longer the same. Although he still couldn't see with his eyes, hear with his ears, and feel with his skin and spirit, he could taste some abstract things:
Cold, quiet, silent, cold, empty, lonely, depressed, painful, dark, death...
These words surrounded Meng Qi, combining in a strange pattern, making his vitality gradually dim.
This is a description of the disappearance of lifespan, death is approaching, and there is no actual power. Therefore, even if Meng Qi uses the current magical power of the Yellow Spring Skeleton, he cannot stop it or reverse it. Only the blackness of the bones senses these abstract things, changes spontaneously, and slowly condenses strange symbols and figures like Dao patterns, approaching the true meaning of death, and the white vitality contained in it is gradually excluded and eliminated.
Is this the essence of death approaching the Great Dao?
Meng Qi did not dare to stay here for long. Based on the simplest judgment, he escaped to the side. In just a few moments, he suddenly jumped into a hot spring from a cold pool, and he almost screamed in comfort.
Abstract concepts such as warmth, enthusiasm, vigor, vitality, liveliness, joy, brightness, liveliness, and power emerged like concrete things.
The origin of life and death, the origin of life and death, there is life after death!
Meng Qi took a deep breath, the coldness of his body faded, and his lifespan gradually filled up in a descriptive way. His body was full of vitality and vigor, and the bones that had been squeezed clean before were full and vigorous again.
The white light contained in the skeleton gradually became richer, and vague Taoist patterns were condensed. First, the balance of black and white flow was restored, but gradually death and the darkness of the skeleton were suppressed.
It is worthy of being the origin of life and death, and the place of the near way. Just being in it, the consciousness can feel the essence of life and death, and have a great understanding. Moreover, the corresponding skills and magical powers of one's own practice will naturally evolve according to the abstraction of the outside world. Approaching them will get a surprising improvement. The deeper you go, the closer this change is to the way of life and death... Meng Qi sighed, and then found the Asura Ancestor and the Blood Killing Taoist not far away.
They are not the origin of life and death, so they can be sensed by the acquired nature.
The Asura Ancestor seemed to have finally soaked in the hot spring to relax after a long period of fatigue. Thousands of eyes squinted comfortably. The decay and decay that could not be concealed by the demon body were reversing, turning into vitality bit by bit, and the blood flames covering the whole body became more and more vigorous.
But he also paid a big price. The guardian spirits around him were emitting bursts of green smoke, gradually becoming blurred and transparent. According to the strength of the demon god, they disappeared one by one.
The blood-killing Taoist showed joy on his face. He was first filled with vitality, then jumped into the nearby "death" and drew out a killing sword made of countless eyes and blood vessels.
The blood light was wriggling, ferocious like insects, and the eyes were open, full of misery and death. They gradually changed themselves according to the abstract things in the outside world, condensed the blurred Dao pattern, and tempered and sublimated the death and murderous intent.
This evil god who came from the underworld sea realm seized the opportunity to refine himself and the sword at the "origin of life and death"!
"Daoyou got what he wanted, which is gratifying." Meng Qi looked at the ancestor of Asura, smiled slightly, and jumped back to the abstract death.
The Yellow Spring River contains life in death, and death is hidden in life. The two are in a delicate balance, which connects the Nine Netherworlds and the Ten Thousand Realms, bringing about changes in life and death. Therefore, if death is too strong or life is too strong, this body will be broken. The balance of the skeleton made it lose its balance, so Meng Qi had no choice but to enhance the essence of life for a while and then return to death, tempering and improving alternately to maintain balance.
And in this way, he might be able to use the "origin of life and death" to refine Huangquan's bones into magical weapons or magic weapons, and break through the original legendary limits and achieve good fortune.
As for extracting the origin of life and death and using it and Huangquan's bones to refine treasures, Meng Qi still has no clue.
The ancestor of Asura lost his old age and chuckled:
"It's really worth fighting for."
"Where's Huangquan?" Meng Qi jumped back to Sheng's side.
The Ancestral Path of Asura pondered for a moment and said: "He is familiar with this place. I am afraid he has gone deep into it. He will not get entangled with us and strive to get the Zhenwu body in a strange state as soon as possible."
Meng Qi thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll try it in depth."
As he spoke, he jumped into death and began to head towards the depths. The so-called depths are places where abstract feelings are thicker and more elusive.
After walking alternately between life and death for a while, Meng Qi found that the ancestor of Asura and the Taoist Blood Killer were following him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
They were too greedy. They had already received enough benefits, but in the end they wanted to go deeper, coveting the secrets of the shortcut and the body of Emperor Zhenwu. They didn't even think about it. How could they compare with themselves? Even if I lose this skeleton and my separated consciousness, it will at most backfire on me and suffer injuries that last for a while without damaging the roots at all. If they fail, they will be doomed.
The scar is so healed that I forget the pain!
Of course, if they are not greedy, they are not evil gods and evil demons. Even if they are smart and rational, they will still be affected by their nature to a certain extent if they are not in the realm of the Taoist God of the past.
After walking for a while, there was a sudden surge in front and back. Meng Qi's eyes lit up and he saw a black and white lightning, half abstract and half substantial, a cycle of life and death, very terrifying, and it suddenly hit him.
This is the "punishment of shortcuts"!
This is not a will presiding over thunder punishment, but a natural reaction. Just like punching a wall, you will receive the corresponding force from the wall. If you go deep into the "origin of life and death" and get close to the avenue, there will be a corresponding rebound. As you go deeper, The degree and power gradually increase.
The blood-yellow mist around Meng Qi's body expanded, half black and half white. As he flicked his fingers, it turned into dozens of turbid sword energy, facing the lightning of the cycle of life and death.
Bang bang bang!
The turbid sword energy was connected end to end and turned into a black and white earth scroll, which was eliminated at the same time as the lightning. The ancestor of Asura and the Taoist Blood Killer also withstood this wave of thunder punishment.
Continuing to move forward, Meng Qi suddenly felt something was wrong and subconsciously stopped in place.
He discovered that not only the bones of Huangquan were changing with the abstract death and life, condensing fuzzy dao patterns, but his own consciousness and distraction were also there.
In other words, if you go deep enough to a certain extent, your distractions and thoughts will be assimilated into the essence of death and life of the short-term path, and there will no longer be any subjective thoughts and ideas!
Is this the so-called Zhenwu Emperor who was too greedy, went too far, and was almost assimilated by the Tao?
At this moment, they saw the black-robed figure in front of them. Huang Quan's reincarnated body was covered with black and white yin-yang fish, and he was rapidly going deep.
Then, he stopped. In front of him was a body sitting cross-legged, with a black robe and a crown of peace. The face was pale and the eyes were closed. It was Emperor Zhenwu, but he seemed to be alive and dead, neither alive nor dead. , there is no bright idea at all, and it is dull and depressed.
"Haha, if you dare to get close, you will be assimilated by the Tao, even if you attack!" Huang Quan turned around and laughed, looking extremely proud.
He was familiar with this place and had already made preparations. Only then did he dare to get close to Zhenwu's body. Others had no chance at all.
Because of this, he did not take advantage of the opportunity when Meng Qi and others had just entered the starting point of life and death and were not yet stable to kill and silence them.
Amidst laughter, Huang Quan turned around, stretched out his right hand, and pressed the clay ball on Emperor Zhenwu's head.
At this time, Emperor Zhenwu's body, which was in the state of life and death, suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were highlighted with a hint of purple!
