Xia Ji felt as if he was in a state of long sleep, yet extremely awake.
He no longer had the slightest thought to take care of other things.
Every thought and cell in his mind was at war with the black tide.
This kind of confrontation, if taken individually, could last for ten days and ten nights, but there are countless such "alones" at this time.
At this time, he was sitting in the Jiuhai Basin.
Trying hard to control my thoughts to count.
He counted silently so as not to forget the passage of time.
As long as time goes by, he is still himself.
However, this kind of confrontation does not have a concept of time at all. Maybe there is, but this concept of time is a cosmic concept of time.
How long does it take for a star to form in the universe? How long will it take for it to be destroyed
Comparing stars to humans, humans can only live and die within a hundred years. These hundreds of years are counted by humans, but the centuries of stars are countless billions of times longer than humans.
Among these endless thoughts, he sometimes occasionally thinks...
It would be great if everything in this world had levels.
The Heavenly Dao is level 100, the ancestor is probably level 50, and normal monks are around level 20. After constantly fighting monsters and gaining experience, they can be raised to level 100...
It would be great if there were infinite races in this world, and through races they would constantly compete, then progress, and then become stronger.
But... no.
In such a universe, human beings are alone, with no alien invasions or alien neighbors.
If there are many great powers in this world, just like the human world, if you are stronger and have a higher status, you will naturally be able to see them, and you will naturally be involved in higher-level confrontations, and then there will always be opponents who can Let you progress, let you rise to the level where you can kill "the way of heaven".
that would be nice.
But... no.
If the road from mortals to the "way of heaven" is a thousand meters long, then no matter how hard a person works, even if he reaches the way, he will only walk one meter.
It would be great if in this world, by practicing a skill, one could destroy the heaven and earth and save the world.
It's just like... some of the movies I watched on Earth before time travel. In the movies, no matter how terrible the disaster is, the "end of the world" crisis can be solved by "finding something" in the end.
He wished that the real world was like this. He only needed to find "such a thing" to save himself, his loved ones, and everything.
Or, he has practiced the technique, broken through to the "Tiandao level", and then fought with the "Tiandao", just like two warriors fighting.
It would be great if there really was such a technique.
If only it were that simple.
Human beings never believe that they are not the protagonist. It seems that if "they are no longer the protagonist", then there is no need to work hard, and they can give up on themselves, blame others, and say a few words such as "What's the use of working hard" and "Only fools work hard", and so on. Or they may talk wildly or say stupid things with pride, but this is nothing more than a sign of weakness and rage.
Human beings will always leave a little hope for themselves, but this hope is so small that it is not worth mentioning to the universe.
How can a life that is not even considered as dust make giants look at it sideways
Everything has a law, but this law is not created for human beings, nor is it created for any existence in the universe.
Just like the flow of human blood, the beating of the heart, and the functions of the internal organs do not exist for the tiny particles in the nucleus of a cell.
The universe is cold and dark, in which human beings are never the protagonists. No matter how hard they try, they cannot escape.
The more Xia Ji fights, the more he understands this.
He knows what he is doing better than anyone else. What he wants to do is simply impossible to achieve. Unless he closes his eyes and enters the dream he has constructed, deceiving himself and others, can he escape from this cold darkness. Jump out of the cruel reality.
He couldn't be more aware of his own insignificance, and he couldn't be more clear that even the Supreme Being and the Amitabha Buddha mentioned by the nine ancestors couldn't be more insignificant.
What is the difference between smaller ants and larger ants
No matter how determined a monk or a sage is, if he experiences the impact of such thoughts, especially if all this is not a lie, his Taoist heart will probably be like "that little ant nest on a thousand-mile dam." Another thought is complete defeat.
A single thought can destroy everything.
Even if it is not destroyed, it still has no bright future.
Human beings are bustling, and monks are fighting and fighting. Everything they do, even if they reach the level of Hedao, will always be in the five-fingered cage of "Heavenly Dao".
This cage is what humans think of as a cage. In fact, "Tiandao" has never thought about this at all.
Yes, human beings just can't accept that they are not the protagonist, and they can't accept that what they do actually has no meaning. They will also look for a thousand and ten thousand reasons to defend it, and even close their eyes and stop looking. If you don't listen, it seems that as long as you can't see the truth, the truth will not exist. Otherwise, you will give up on yourself, blame others, and lose yourself.
Xia Ji couldn't be more clear.
However, even so.
He still had to fight.
We must continue to fight tirelessly.
Go against the "heaven" of "those who obey heaven will live in drunkenness and dream of death".
It goes against heaven, just because the burning human fire in my heart has not been extinguished.
If the fire is not extinguished, what does it have to do with whether it can burn out this dark world
The young man came from the earth and star, crossed time and space, and stepped into the imperial capital of Shang Dynasty. He spent more than ten years in vain, studied the scriptures for three years, defended the isolated city alone, and fought against enemies from all directions...
He got higher step by step and reached where he is now step by step.
Looking back, I suddenly realized that I was too far away from those who were traveling with me.
Looking up again, I found that there was no road at all not far ahead.
The dark void, the dangerous and mysterious universe, and the harmony at the end.
There will be no other way.
…
The black tide is like a supreme magic dragon, moving among the infinite galaxies.
Every human face may be a sage who has struggled, worked hard, and fought.
Every Ancient Lord, Desolate Lord, Catastrophe Lord, and even Void Lord are the fused consciousnesses of human saints after their madness.
Even so, the Kuroshio still followed the established rules and, pulled by a mysterious force, slowly moved towards the world around the established trajectory.
Then, the Kuroshio will take away a new batch of "powers" from the human world and strengthen its own "flesh and blood", just like the human body has completed an ordinary "metabolism".
Then, it will twist its light-year-long body and head deeper into the universe.
Wait twelve thousand years and get a little closer to the human world again.
Wait two hundred and eighty-eight thousand years and get closer.
Over and over again, until eternity.
…
The sky wind suddenly rose, and all kinds of cosmic winds from the stars and rivers descended on Yuexing. These winds carried extremely rich spiritual energy.
The sky wind tore apart the "opportunity" monks on Yuexing.
At the same time, the aura carried by these cosmic winds condensed into something substantial, turning into "aura meteors" and bombarding the light and dark sides of the moon, forming strange craters and craters.
The wind swept up the spiritual energy on the moon and stars again.
Just as a ladder to the moon and stars rose up from the human world, now the surface of the moon has also changed.
Just like a gaseous ball with a "gap", one side of the ball suddenly began to erupt with a lot of "projections". These "projections" are all spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy formed huge clouds farther away from the moon and stars.
These clouds quickly began to "cool" and then condense.
Gradually, the aura clouds formed dense aura spaces one after another.
This space gradually stabilized, and the magical spiritual energy and the rules of the universe actually gave this space a shape.
Looking up from the moon and stars, one can actually see spiritual mountains and rivers, and floating spiritual islands. The beauty and vastness of the scene made the monks in the monk world stunned.
Su Tian knows...
This is the world of heaven.
Although the Heavenly Tribulation has not yet arrived, the Wind Tribulation has already arrived.
The wind tribulation lasts for five hundred years. If you survive the wind tribulation, you will become an immortal.
By then, the world of immortals will also be stable, which is a world above the world of monks.
She turned her head to look at Xia Ji, but she couldn't see him anymore.
No one knows what's going on with Xia Ji now. With him at the center, everything is dark.
They are all the remains of human corpses and spiritual remnants of the sages and saints.
However, they have fallen into complete chaos and madness...
…
These chaos and madness finally completely crushed Xia Ji's body.
Xia Ji's body has completely integrated into the black tide.
However, the little golden baby is still there.
The black blood vessels in the baby's body are crisscrossed, and the fiery red heart is beating continuously.
His right hand pointed to the sky and his left hand pointed to the earth.
The stars are changing, everything is changing, the mountains are turning into plains, and the seas are turning into mulberry fields, but he remains unchanged.
Gradually, the golden color began to grow bigger... bigger and bigger...
Until it transformed into a young man standing across the void, sitting next to the moon and stars. The young man clasped his hands together and seemed to be chanting something.
If you look at it from a higher perspective...
No human world, no moon, no heavenly world.
It seemed that only this boy with golden light all over his body was left in the universe, and the light-year-long black tide dragon in the distance.
The young man sat alone in the center of this broken world, sitting alone on the edge of the universe that was on the verge of destruction. All the divine thoughts were fighting against each other one by one, and his mind had turned into an instinct.
If there was a hell in the past that was not empty, I would never become a Buddha.
Today, the young man is here, his soul is restless and he will not wake up.
One person can be transformed into a human being, and hundreds of millions of years of sage power can be achieved.
Every word and every word comes from the ambition of an unprecedented person.
The heart is the sun, and the blood flows in black tide.
The endless heat of the universe and the endless black tide merged with him. This scene made people lose their sense of shock and even forgot to worship.
…
Su Tian looked up.
Xiao Su looked up.
Su Yueqing looked up.
The surviving ones among the seventy-two disciples looked up.
The humans looked up and the demons also looked up.
Miao Miao looked up from this life after another.
Many memories began to burst out and began to impact.
Maybe cause and effect should come to an end here, or maybe it's just the beginning.
Yes.
just began.
…
Xia Ji's consciousness at this time was already vague. He could only see a wisp of rules in the sky. He raised his hand to grab it. The rules turned into seals, but they instantly melted and adhered to his body surface.
In a daze, he saw the rolling torrent mixed with many spiritual treasures coming from the depths of the galaxy, like a bright nine-color sacred belt surrounding it. He raised his hand and those sacred belts floated around him.
He raised his head and looked at the black tide that was getting closer and closer in the incomparable distance, and his heart was extremely peaceful.
He has become completely accustomed to the confrontation in every part of this body, and so many confrontations have formed his body.
…
A long time passed.
He suddenly realized something and actually got up from the void.
He stepped towards the depths of the starry sky.
Deep in the starry sky, there was also a misty shadow coming.
The shadow was filled with mysteries that no one could peep into. It seemed that just one look at it would cause the brain to explode due to too much information.
The shadow looked at Xia Ji.
In a voice that can be understood, he said: "You came from the other side and became my way. If you don't agree with me now, when will you wait?"
Xia Ji looked at the shadow quietly without any hesitation, because all his beliefs were already firm.
He said slowly: "The sun in the world is my heart, the black tide dragon is my blood, life and death occur once in five hundred years, and this is unforgettable once in five hundred years..."
The shadow waited quietly.
Xia Ji continued: "Fellow Taoist, I have made a vow and inherited the great cause and effect. This wish and cause and effect are not on your side. How do you want me to join the Tao with you today?!"
"Fellow?"
The shadow seemed to make a mockery without any emotion.
He raised his hand, and the mysterious power turned into a fist that could be regarded as a fist.
This power is already difficult to describe or compare with any words.
Xia Ji closed his eyes and accepted the punch in silence.
Bang! ! !
His whole body collapsed instantly.
The golden body instantly turned into nothingness.
However…
His heart was still beating and his blood was still flowing.
…
The approaching black tide suddenly seemed to have broken away from the power that "maintained its movement on the established trajectory", and the "sea of resentful spirits" with an area measured in light years rolled towards Xia Ji.
In the void, one will and countless wills converged into one will: We are you, and you are us. Since you are fighting with the way of heaven, then we will help you and become you.
Vaguely, there seemed to be endless figures, endless sages, running on this land of murderous darkness amidst the sound of the drums of destruction, holding high the battle flag, and marching forward one after another.
However, mountains of corpses turned into seas, and blood flowed into rivers, until finally, the last lonely figure walked onto this land.
He took the battle flag and stood in front of his opponent.
And all the resentful spirits in the sky suddenly boiled and went crazy towards him, making him transcend his original limitations and restraints, and in an instant he became a being that was no longer an ant.
The collapsed and void golden body condensed again.
Xia Ji looked at the mysterious black shadow in front of him and said: "My heart is bright, how can I follow the path?"
The sound fell.
An extremely terrifying, indescribable, indescribable power turned into a fist and blasted towards the black shadow.
This may be the first time since the beginning of the world that man has truly shaken his fist at heaven.
…
