Chapter 343 Tao and the World

As the saying goes, you should not hit a smiling person. The old man just stroked his beard and looked at Zheng Qiu with a smile: "I am Li Er, you call me a senior, and I can't drive you away. How about I hang you today?"

Zheng Qiu nodded and said, "Please tell me, Senior. I came to this world only to seek fate and do not want to commit too many sins. If you can show me a way forward, it will be a blessing for me."

Li Er stroked his beard and stared at Zheng Qiu's face for a while, and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "You have had a very happy life. When you were born, someone got rid of your troublesome family members. You didn't suffer any hardships until you were sixteen. After sixteen, you entered the immortal fate. You are a transcendent person if you serve others. You have a beautiful woman in your womb but you will never have an heir. You have committed a lot of murder but you have many merits. You don't cultivate Buddha, demon or mind, but you cultivate the origin. You are very lucky!"

Zheng Qiu just nodded: "I came here to seek marriage!"

Li Er laughed, and saw the green ox bowed, and the old man slowly got off the ox's back.

"This fate is not yours! Or rather, it is not for you now. If you really want it, why don't you stay here? I will teach you some Taoist methods, so that you can verify the Tao in your heart, okay?"

Zheng Qiu clasped his hands together and bowed slightly: "Thank you, Senior!"

The old man grabbed Zheng Qiu's wrist and said, "Okay! I just happened to have a pot of golden elixir out of the furnace today. Today, it's fate. It's our turn!"

Zheng Qiu only felt a light flowing around him, and instantly he appeared in an alchemy room.

The alchemy room was extremely simply furnished, with a lotus seat with divine light shining on it and a nine-turn Tai Chi Bagua furnace. There were cabinets standing on the walls, and on the cabinets were only various gourds and jade bottles.

Lear waved his hand and a speck of dust appeared in his hand. He waved the speck of dust again and two golden lights rose into the sky.

"Don't mind me, fellow Taoist. I am not myself. I am the original self that has become the Three Pure Ones. Since we are discussing the Dao, it is natural for me to let the other me listen and verify each other."

Zheng Qiu didn't care, and just casually grabbed a wine gourd in his hand: "I don't have anything of my own, but since you are discussing the Dao, I will take out a pot of good wine as a gift."

Li Er laughed and waved his dustpan again. A stone table appeared in front of the alchemy furnace, and on the table appeared more than a dozen delicious dishes emitting seven-colored precious light.

Zheng Qiu was slightly surprised when he saw this, because there was not a single ordinary thing on the table, but dragon liver and phoenix marrow, lion heart and tiger waist, deer legs and bear paws, and all kinds of delicacies.

Zheng Qiu did not hesitate. He returned his consciousness to the small world, took out eight innate spiritual fruits and placed them on the table.

When Li Er saw it, his eyes lit up immediately: "Fellow Daoist, you are really generous. You are willing to share this treasure with me."

Zheng Qiu nodded slightly, and suddenly felt two extremely terrifying auras approaching him. Zheng Qiu raised his head slightly, and saw that the same two old men had landed in the alchemy room.

"Dao De! What do you want to call me for?" Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Li Er with a smile, his eyes full of nostalgia.

Lingbao Tianzun laughed and said, "It has been a thousand years since we last met. I think you have something to discuss with me since I saw you hosting a banquet today."

After exchanging a few words of greeting, the two looked at Zheng Qiu. As soon as they looked at each other, a momentum suddenly burst out from their bodies. The murderous intent in this momentum was not strong, but extremely rich.

Zheng Qiu was not overwhelmed by this momentum. He just bowed slightly, smiled, and saluted: "Junior Huosha, I am here to discuss the Dao!"

Lingbao Tianzun looked at Li Er suspiciously: "Daode Tianzun, have you seen the secret of heaven?"

Li Er nodded slightly: "With my friend's consent, I have made a fortune for him! This fortune-telling has yielded some results. Why don't we sit down and talk in detail!"

Yuanshi Tianzun burst into laughter: "Yes! Please take a seat, little Taoist friend!"

The four of them sat down one after another, and then Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun's eyes suddenly lit up. Lingbao Tianzun picked up a spiritual fruit and looked at it carefully: "What is this? It is obviously an innate spiritual treasure, but I have never seen it before."

Zheng Qiu smiled and said, "I used myself as a furnace, and my soul returned to the original place, refining the divine objects to form a world. This world has lasted for tens of thousands of years, and only a few of these objects have been born. If you ask what these objects are called, even I don't know. Everything is just the self-evolution of life!"

Lingbao Tianzun was slightly stunned: "You can actually return to the original state? I wonder what realm you are in?"

Zheng Qiu smiled: "I don't know the realm divisions of this world. Before becoming an immortal, our world was divided into nine major realms, and I am in the eighth realm, the Mahayana stage!"

Yuanshi Tianzun was stunned for a moment: "How can you cross the void without being an immortal? How many immortal emperors have left our world, but in the end, they disappeared without a trace, and I don't know whether they died or not."

Zheng Qiu was somewhat puzzled: "Are all three of you immortals?"

Li Er, the Heavenly Lord of Morality, nodded slightly: "Yes, but we are more than just immortals! The three of us were transformed by Hongjun's energy, and Hongjun is the master of this world! In this world, we are immortal emperors. If we talk about our cultivation, the three of us should be the top of this world, but the three of us cannot leave this world. If the three of us leave, this world will collapse. So we don't know what realm we will be in after we leave."

Zheng Qiu nodded: "I think this world is round and square, which is very unreasonable. I want to ask how this world should operate?"

The Lord of Morality shook the dust in his hand, and a ball of light appeared on the stone table. The ball of light kept spinning, and a model of overlapping light and shadow appeared.

"The so-called Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. Everything comes from here!"

The Lord of Dao and Virtue pointed to a high point in the sky and said, "So there was the great wizard Pangu who created the world with his own strength. Pure air rose while turbid air fell. Pure air enveloped all things and was Yang, while turbid air carried all things and was Yin. After Pangu died, his eyes turned into the sun and the moon, his body turned into mountains and rivers, his blood turned into rivers, and his hair turned into flowers, plants, and trees. The harmony of yin and yang and the unity of heaven and man are the source of the Tao."

Zheng Qiu nodded and opened his hands. A blue planet appeared in his hands. "This is the human world I created. This is the planet where the human race lives. The sun, moon and stars are all celestial bodies. Day and night alternate and all things grow and rise. The stars rotate, and there is black and white. With black and white, there is change. With change, there is vitality. With vitality, there is the origin!"

The two looked at each other and burst into laughter. Both of them described their own world in an extremely simple way. It seemed that they were talking, but they didn’t say anything. It seemed that they didn’t say anything, but they could feel the power of the Tao slowly flowing around them.

Lingbao Tianzun frowned slightly: "How many lives can there be in your world?"

Zheng Qiu smiled and said, "The world evolves on its own. In the world I created, there were wars as well. Although it was still short, there were hundreds of millions of people."

This time Yuanshi Tianzun was a little surprised: "The population is already in the billions?"

Zheng Qiu spread his hands, and a dark panel appeared in front of the three people: "This is a panel that I derived based on the technology of other worlds. I use it to promote the progress of the world. The heavenly world is still just a feudal dynasty, but my world has entered the capitalist society and the socialist society."
