Chapter 248 The horrifying truth (fourth update)
The further they advanced, the thicker the darkness became. Later, the two simply gave up resisting this dark substance and just kept their hearts and souls. The soul is the most mysterious part of the human body. Once something goes wrong there, it's all over.
Fortunately, Yuanshi had already formed his own soul realm, and the Chaos Bell protected his soul, so nothing would happen for the time being, but it might not be the case over time.
After entering the palace, they didn't know how far they had walked. In front of the deepest hall, the two stopped. They saw a layer of black light in front of them, covering the entire hall.
"There is a living creature!"
The two were shocked. Through the black light, they could vaguely see a humanoid creature lying on the cloud-patterned gemstone bed in the hall, motionless, but extremely majestic.
Yuanshi's eyes shone, and he operated his Taoist eyes, penetrating through the layers of fog and carefully observing the person inside.
Finally, he saw clearly that in the ruined hall, on the dilapidated cloud bed, the black fog was rolling, and a person was lying.
He was completely black and dilapidated. The thick black fog was emitted from his body. He was the real origin of all the dark matter.
All the darkness came from that corpse.
He was very broken, as if he had been bombed. From the head to the lower limbs, everything was very broken.
Most of the upper body was missing, and there was only half of the head. Only the bones were left in his feet, and even the bones were pitch black. His chest was also extremely broken. A heart slightly larger than a fist lay quietly there, extremely black.
He exuded an extremely evil aura from head to toe, but at the same time there was also a vast and boundless aura, and a kind of pressure and aura that far exceeded that of a Hunyuan strongman.
Even if he died, he could still be like this, which showed how terrifying his cultivation was.
The dark matter was completely emitted from his rotten body, thus infecting this palace, and then spreading outside, spreading out of the entire mysterious secret realm.
Looking closely, he had a golden divine chain on him, tying him to the bed. At the same time, the black light should have been suppressed here, but it was contaminated by darkness and turned black.
Yuanshi looked carefully and found nothing else, but the dark matter here made people feel uncomfortable. Because the black matter was too dense, almost turning into liquid, trying to assimilate them.
"The art of cause and effect, trace back to the origin, reverse time, and reappear in the past!"
Yuanshi shouted loudly, urging the supreme law in his body, and began to deduce the past of this place according to the cause and effect relationship.
Boom!
Like the creation of the world, this place began to evolve many scenes.
"Open!"
Yuanshi encountered great obstacles, because there were Hunyuan strongmen here. Strongmen of this level naturally concealed the secrets of heaven. If he hadn't used the art of cause and effect to deduce, with his cultivation, he couldn't deduce anything. Even so, he would suffer a huge backlash.
Finally, he saw some vague but extremely real scenes.
He saw that corpse, which had opened its eyes and spit out a lot of black matter. He saw countless essences being absorbed by this person to resist the dark matter in his body, and those essences were actually... actually the essences of those supreme beings or true immortals.
Obviously, these supreme beings or true immortals were the ones they encountered before, and they were asked by the Immortal Execution Platform, so the Immortal Execution Platform was set up by this person.
Moreover, Yuanshi also saw that after this person absorbed other people's Tao and essence, some of the dark matter on his body would be discharged.
Yuanshi had a headache, he understood that the root of all the troubles was here, and the Immortal Execution Platform was also set up by this person.
Then, he saw that this person actually fell from a hole in the chaos, and fought with Pangu, who had just opened up the world in this world. In the battle, they broke the universe and destroyed the Tao. This person actually killed Pangu and absorbed Pangu and the essence of this world. After that, he was no longer able to fight, so he had to seal himself in this time and space turbulence. Every million years, he absorbed some supreme beings or true immortals in the world to replenish his essence.
At this point, Yuanshi knew everything. This person must have come from another higher-level interface. Because of the war, he was destroyed and accidentally landed here. At the same time, he also knew that this world was not a small world. It was actually not much worse than the prehistoric world. It was just because of the war that the person actually absorbed most of the essence of this world, which led to the world's regression and degeneration into what it is now.
The picture was cut off from then on. Above, it was impossible to deduce where this person came from.
"Hiss!" Yuanshi sucked in a breath, his eyes wide open, looking at the corpse in the temple, or it can't be considered a corpse, after all, he might still be alive. How terrifying is this person? After absorbing so much essence, he can only suppress the darkness and survive. Then how terrifying is the person who fought with him? Daozu next to him, on the other hand, did not have enough cultivation and could not see those pictures clearly, so he was not as shocked as Yuanshi. But as soon as he saw Yuanshi's expression, he roughly guessed what happened, and his expression was also very heavy. Yuanshi looked at the hall, pondered for a moment, and found a place to sit down nearby. He was going to start a breakthrough. This matter was no longer something he could control. Even if this person's body was broken and his cultivation was greatly damaged, he was not someone he could deal with as he had not broken through the Hunyuan.
He can't control so much now. Only I can solve this matter. He took out the Taixuan Remnant Plaque and began to understand the great avenue above. He needed to break through as soon as possible. It was no longer time to worry about the dark matter. Anyway, he was just the corpse of the deity. Sooner or later, he would be taken back. He only needed to understand the great avenue. , no matter whether he is eroded by darkness, darkness is also a terrible way. He is not afraid of the original way. On the contrary, the original way comes and never refuses. Such things are of great benefit.
Seeing this, the Taoist ancestor next to him asked, "Do you know the reason for this?"
Yuan Shi looked at him indifferently and said: "Yes, he did this. However, this matter is beyond our ability. I advise fellow Taoists to leave it alone."
When Daozu heard the words, he also fell silent. He was not the kind of person who didn't know the importance. From Yuanshi's words, he understood a lot. Yuanshi didn't dare to care about this matter, let alone him. He looked at Yuan Shi's understanding of the broken plaque and asked again:
"Have you, fellow Taoist, ever found a way to resolve the darkness within us?"
"No!" Yuan Shi replied calmly, without even raising his eyelids this time.
"Um."
When Daozu saw this, he didn't say anything. He also sat down and contemplated the avenue on the plaque. He had already seen the next realm, and he must be able to break through it soon. If he breaks through, he must be able to find a way.
In this way, the two found a place and began to comprehend Taixuan Avenue. No one knew when the characters in the palace would wake up. They needed time to break through.
"Um?"
I don't know how long it took, Yuan Shi woke up and found that the dark matter could not invade the soul deep in his soul. In his soul, a small white flame was burning quietly, and no one could get close to it. The black matter As soon as he got close, he was burned by the white flames.
Soul fire!
Yuanshi was surprised. He didn't expect that soul fire could have such an effect. But after thinking about it carefully, he also understood that the soul fire is a fire of will, a fire of hope. The invasion of black matter into his soul is equivalent to taking away his body. How can he endure this soul fire? He will naturally resist. .
"The fire of the soul can burn dark matter, then..." Yuanshi's mind moved slightly, and he deliberately led the black matter deep into the soul. Sure enough, no matter what it is, as long as it invades the soul, it will be burned by the soul fire.
"Eh? There is still something left. Is that...the origin of darkness?" Yuanshi was surprised. He didn't expect that the dark matter was burned, but some pure darkness was left.
The origin of darkness is also the source of darkness. It is the origin of Tao. It can not only increase your cultivation but also enhance your understanding of the laws of the Tao. Cultivation in the realm of Hunyuan is to cultivate the origin of the Tao, clearly understand your own Tao, and understand it. To the extreme, one can condense the origin of the Great Dao, also known as Daoyuan, Hunyuan, and Hunyuan.
The great road is not a law, but it is related to the law. The great road contains thousands of things and has no high or low, but the law has its strength and weakness.
The origin of darkness is a kind of Tao source, and naturally it is also a kind of avenue. Yuanshi was overjoyed and refined it. Afterwards, under Yuan Shi's intentional guidance, the dark matter was continuously burned and refined by the fire of the soul, leaving its origin for him to practice.
In this way, five hundred years passed.
boom!
On this day, a sudden violent vibration woke up Yuan Shi who was immersed in comprehension.
