Chapter 933 The Realm of Saints: Gu Changqing Seems to Understand the Mysteries!
Yes, it is fragile.
Under the immense power of the Mountain and River Map and the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the chaotic storm that could tear apart even a Great Luo Golden Immortal was temporarily blocked from the vast territory spanning hundreds of millions of miles.
The turmoil gradually subsided, and celestial light filled the air, with divine rays descending.
This pure land, upheld by two sages, became the only place of hope for the entire primordial world when the end of the world arrived.
But everyone knows that this is only temporary.
The vibrant scroll-like barrier is visibly fading under the onslaught of the chaotic torrent.
The Six Paths Divine Wheel, which suppressed the earth, also became somewhat obscure and sluggish in its operation.
The power of a sage is not limitless.
Especially at this moment when the laws of heaven have been overturned, their consumption every second far exceeds that of the past.
If this continues, this last sanctuary will likely be torn apart by the chaotic storm and vanish completely.
However, right now, billions of people can't care about anything else.
"Quickly, quickly hide in that saint's domain."
"That's our only chance of survival, we must not fall behind."
Before them, this was the only hope for all living beings.
Before the words were even finished, figures hurriedly transformed into streaks of light and soared into the air towards the Saint's Domain.
No one, without exception!
I only ask for a moment of life.
Or rather, it's about preserving one's remaining magical power and cultivation, preventing them from being completely swept away and swallowed up by the chaotic storm.
On the other side...
Jin'ao Island, deep within the Biyou Palace.
Inside the cave, Gu Changqing was still leaning against the cloud bed.
The water mirror in front of him reflected everything in the outside world clearly.
Whether it was the tragic act of two saints burning their holy power to protect all living beings.
It was still the same countless creatures rushing to escape into the Pure Land in a panic.
He saw it all.
a moment.
His eyes, which always held a hint of dazedness, suddenly cleared for a moment, and his previously languid posture straightened slightly.
He seemed to have discovered something.
In fact, just as Nuwa and Houtu had thought.
Gu Changqing was not truly helpless, nor was he merely standing by indifferently.
He was observing.
Witness the mysteries of Hongjun stirring up chaos and overturning the laws.
This method of "formatting" the entire world from its very roots is, for him, an unprecedented demonstration of "Taoist principles".
Just now, Gu Changqing finally caught a glimpse of the key.
He discovered that the cause and effect in the world had been completely overturned!
In the water mirror, the scene in one corner was magnified infinitely.
He was a cultivator at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm who had exhausted his magical power during his escape and was struck by a fragment of a shattered continent, leaving a deep wound that exposed the bone.
After successfully escaping into the protected area of the Mountain and River Map, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took out a top-grade healing elixir.
The elixir melts upon entering the mouth, transforming into a powerful medicinal force that surges throughout the body.
however.
The next instant, the Taiyi Golden Immortal let out a scream that was a hundred times more shrill than when he was injured!
His deep, bone-revealing wound not only failed to heal, but instead began to frantically flare and expand outwards in a bizarre manner!
Flesh and blood melted away, bones disintegrated!
In just a few breaths, the powerful medicinal force completely "healed" half of his body, turning it into a blurry pool of blood and mud.
His primordial spirit tried to escape, but was firmly imprisoned within his remaining body by that strange force of cause and effect, and together they were destined for annihilation.
This scene terrified the cultivators who had just escaped in.
They don't understand.
Why can a top-grade healing elixir turn into a deadly poison?
But Gu Changqing understood.
Cause and effect have been reversed.
Before this, the normal cause and effect was that because of "injury", "medicine" was needed to "heal".
The elixir is the "cause," and the cure is the "effect."
But now, Hongjun has forcibly distorted this fundamental law.
Elixirs are no longer the "cause" that produces the "cure".
Instead, it became the "effect" in tracing the cause of the "injury"!
Taking the pill will not heal your injuries; it will only make the injuries you suffered return to you a hundredfold or a thousandfold!
If you are injured by sword energy, taking a pill will transform the power of the pill into an even more terrifying sword energy, tearing you apart from the inside out.
If you are burned by raging fire, taking the elixir will cause the elixir's power to ignite an even more intense divine fire within your body, burning you to ashes.
This is Hongjun's method!
What he wants to do is more than just destruction.
It fundamentally overturns the cognition of all postnatal beings, turning all their struggles into catalysts that accelerate their own demise!
Do not!
More accurately, this was not Hongjun's doing.
Rather, it was the chaotic storm summoned by the Chaos Ancestor that displayed its terrifying power and effects.
Gu Changqing's thoughts raced, and the scene in the water mirror changed once again.
This time, what appeared in the mirror was a group of cultivators meditating and regulating their breathing.
Being in the sacred land of the saints, they were temporarily safe, so they subconsciously began to absorb and exhale the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, trying to restore their depleted magical power.
This is an instinct ingrained in the very bones of every cultivator for millions of years.
Absorb spiritual energy, refine it for your own use, strengthen your foundation, cleanse your marrow and enhance your cultivation.
However, now...
"Ah! My magical power! My foundation of cultivation!"
"No! Why is this happening!"
The piercing screams rose and fell.
The cultivators who were meditating suddenly began to lose their aura, their magical power flowing out like a flood.
Their cultivation levels are declining at an alarming rate!
Celestial Immortal, True Immortal, Earthly Immortal...
In just a short while, many cultivators' cultivation levels plummeted from the Immortal Realm back to the mortal realm!
Even worse, because their magical power was lost too quickly and too violently, their foundations were unstable, and they exploded on the spot, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
Gu Changqing watched this scene quietly.
This is yet another example of cause and effect being reversed.
In the past, all living beings absorbed spiritual energy, "borrowing" the power of heaven and earth to strengthen themselves.
Absorbing spiritual energy is the "cause," and increasing one's cultivation level is the "effect."
Now, this logic has been completely reversed by Hongjun.
If you then absorb spiritual energy, the "cause" will no longer trigger the "effect" of "increased cultivation".
It's not "return"!
The more you consume, the faster the laws of nature will reclaim everything you have "borrowed"!
Your magical power, your cultivation, your Taoist practice... all the power you obtain from this world will be forcibly extracted and returned to its origin.
This is the real "formatting".
Cut off all ties completely.
Under these new, distorted rules, any attempt to resist or save oneself using past methods will only result in one outcome.
They'll die even faster.
a long time.
Gu Changqing picked up his wine glass and drank the remaining wine in one gulp.
He pursed his lips and uttered a muttered word that was difficult to decipher.
"Uh... I see..."
