Chapter 80 The Great Tribulation of Creation!
Clarify the method of "Enlightenment in Dreams" originating from the monk Xianwang, and the fleeting moments of myriad memories.
Zhou Xuan comprehended the method of "Attaining the Dao in a Dream," and the myriad strands of divine thoughts that separated from it, in the long river of time, reversed the course of eternity and descended upon Zhou Xuan in the Great Wilderness Stone Village during the chaotic ancient era.
Through the erosion of time, it remains ever new, imbued with divine inspiration...
'A myriad of divine thoughts unite into one, achieving spiritual connection and taking form.'
With the help of a crystal-clear willow branch that revived from the ashes of a willow tree struck by lightning, Zhou Xuan, having sorted out his many memories and rediscovered his true self, immediately began to examine his body:
Such a miracle is no less miraculous than the elixir of immortality that grants the ability to transform into human form.
'In this state, can I be considered to be in a state of divine inspiration and spiritual enlightenment?'
'However, unlike the true Holy Spirit, who was nurtured by the vast universe for countless years and finally emerged in a state of perfect perfection, my power is far, far inferior to that of the true Holy Spirit.'
'Furthermore, this body, formed from divine consciousness, contained not a trace of Dao Fruit remaining.'
After examining himself, Zhou Xuan, who had never been so weak since his transmigration, couldn't help but sigh inwardly:
'Too weak, too weak!!'
Having cleared his mind of distractions, Zhou Xuan stood up and, under the astonished gazes of the old patriarch and the others, took a few steps forward to the giant stone platform stained with blood.
The giant stone platform is engraved with intricate patterns, but due to the erosion of time, those patterns have become quite blurred.
Even so, despite being stained by the blood of ferocious beasts, the giant stone altar still exuded a tragic, primordial aura.
The children of Shicun, apart from the little ones with their babyish voices.
Even the oldest child instinctively feared this giant stone altar.
Zhou Xuan, who appeared quite dazed during the moment of disordered memories of countless lifetimes experienced during the "Dream Enlightenment" method, was one of them.
However, things are different now.
Even if the giant stone altar were merely an inanimate object, and even if the sky collapsed in an instant and he died the next second, Zhou Xuan, whose memories had been thoroughly clarified with the help of the lightning-struck willow tree, would not be afraid in the slightest.
Standing before the megalithic altar, Zhou Xuan clasped his hands together, bowed deeply to the lightning-struck willow tree, and then expressed his gratitude in the language of the present era:
"Junior Zhou Xuan thanks Senior."
Upon hearing Zhou Xuan's voice, Little Dot, Pi Hou, and Hu Niu's eyes widened instantly. The little mute who hadn't uttered a single word since entering the village had actually spoken?!
After their initial surprise, the young children grinned, revealing genuine smiles.
The little ones were genuinely happy that their friends could speak.
Unlike the young children, the old clan leader, who had found Zhou Xuan's stone cloud peak from beside the sacred willow tree in Stone Village, was now somewhat anxious.
In his youth, he left Stone Village and went to Stone Cloud Peak beyond the Great Wilderness. He naturally knew that beyond the Great Wilderness, there were countless kingdoms and powerful races.
Then, the Willow Goddess threw a willow branch and placed it on Zhou Xuan's ancestral aperture between his eyebrows.
The aura of majesty emanating from Zhou Xuan was even greater than that of the ancient kings and nobles he had gazed upon from afar when he was young!
Could it be that this little mute girl he picked up from beside Liu Shen is actually a powerful cultivator with enough strength to rule an ancient kingdom?!
Just as Shi Yunfeng was feeling uneasy, the lightning-struck willow tree, which was over ten meters tall and had a charred black trunk, trembled slightly, if it weren't for a crystal-clear willow branch swaying in the wind.
Immediately afterwards, the willow branch that sprouted from the top of the charred tree trunk drooped slightly and touched Zhou Xuan's brow again.
At the same time, a divine thought emerged in Zhou Xuan's mind.
"you're awake."
"With the help of my seniors, my jumbled memories have been cleared up, and my rationality has returned."
"That's good."
"Want to leave?"
"I have suffered a great calamity and lost all my cultivation. I still need to recuperate and recover some of my self-defense capabilities."
Sensing the thought of the Willow Goddess in the Stone Village ritual, Zhou Xuan responded with a slight thought:
"I hope you will grant my request, senior."
As soon as Zhou Xuan's thought settled, the willow branch divine sense that had touched Zhou Xuan's brow trembled slightly:
"Ask them."
Then, the emerald green willow branch moved from the ancestral aperture between Zhou Xuan's eyebrows and pointed in the direction of Shi Yunfeng and the other residents of Shi Village.
Following the direction of the willow branch, Zhou Xuan turned his head and looked at the group of little ones and their friends who were grinning and showing joy, seemingly happy for him.
Then, he turned his gaze to the old patriarch Shi Yunfeng, whose eyes showed trepidation, and slowly spoke:
"Old patriarch."
Upon hearing Zhou Xuan's question, Shi Yunfeng's aged lips moved for a moment before he replied:
"Child, you remember now?"
"I remember now, my name is Zhou Xuan."
Hearing the old patriarch's question, Zhou Xuan spoke with a gentle expression:
"I should kowtow and express my gratitude for your life-saving grace. However, my strength has not yet recovered, and I am unable to suppress the strange phenomena of heaven and earth. If I were to force myself to kowtow, it would diminish the blessings of the old clan chief."
"Fortunately, there are still a few cultivation techniques here that you can practice, which can be considered as settling part of the karma."
At this point, Zhou Xuan looked into Shi Yunfeng's eyes and said:
"We hope the old clan chief will allow Xuan to stay temporarily in Shi Village..."
"it is good!"
In his youth, the old clan leader had traveled far and wide, and was well-informed, so he naturally knew what the cultivation techniques were.
That is something that only the most powerful ancient kingdoms and the top-tier forces can possess, and its value can even be compared with the unique true bone of a pure-blooded ferocious beast.
Now, the little mute girl he saved a few years ago not only possesses the exclusive techniques of top-tier forces, but also many other techniques, and is willing to pass them on to Shi Village!
The price, however, was simply to keep him living in Shicun, just like before!
This incredible stroke of luck, almost like a divine elixir falling from the sky, filled the old patriarch with joy, and he repeatedly exclaimed:
"Stay as long as you want!!"
Having received the old patriarch's permission, Zhou Xuan turned his head.
Towards this tree, though only a single emerald green willow branch has sprouted a bud.
However, upon closer inspection, Zhou Xuan sensed an aura that was even more powerful and refined than that of the otherworldly immortals.
Only within the immortal particles of the Azure Lotus Immortal Elixir and the Bodhi Immortal Elixir could one glimpse the form and aura of a fallen immortal king, comparable to that of the lightning-struck willow wood.
"Senior, my cultivation is insufficient to carve words in the air. I hope you will lend a hand and carve the scriptures."
The willow tree struck by lightning remained silent, with only the willow branches on its charred trunk swaying slightly.
Although it was only a slight sway of the willow branches, Zhou Xuan still sensed a sense of approval from the willow tree struck by lightning.
Without hesitation, he began to expound on the legendary Daoist scripture, which was created by the Daoist deity of the mythical era.
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!”
however,
As soon as Zhou Xuan uttered a single sentence, massive, boundless tribulation clouds rapidly condensed in the sky and throughout the universe, some even containing wisps of chaotic energy.
Suddenly,
The Daoist scriptures, which were created based on the secret methods of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, could not be born during the Desolate Heavenly Emperor's young age!
Looking at the tribulation clouds in the sky, Zhou Xuan clearly sensed it.
If one were to forcibly proclaim this, a heavenly lightning punishment, even more terrifying than the ultimate imperial tribulation, would descend from the thunderclouds.
Zhou Xuan, his eyes wide open and speechless for a moment, was filled with a jumble of thoughts.
What's going on with this world?
Why am I not even allowed to preach the Tao Te Ching anymore?!
If the Daoist scriptures created by the Supreme Lord of Morality are ineffective, then what about the Chaos Emperor Scripture, which I created by drawing upon the teachings of Taiyin, Taiyang, Shenxiang Zhenyu Jin, and the insights of the Heavenly Emperor of Nanling?
Thinking of this, Zhou Xuan waited until the heavenly tribulation clouds dispersed before tentatively speaking:
"There is something formless and complete, which existed before heaven and earth..."
At the beginning of the "Chaos Emperor Scripture," it did not involve the key points of the secret realm cultivation method. It was merely the text of the Emperor Scripture's intention that was proclaimed. At that moment, the setting sun was still there in the sky, and there were no clouds for thousands of miles.
However, just when Zhou Xuan thought it was merely a coincidence,
After expounding on the essentials of cultivation following the establishment of the Emperor's Scripture.
"Boom, boom, boom!!!"
Thunder roared from the heavens, and the vast tribulation clouds that had just dispersed above the sky gathered once more.
Zhou Xuan immediately shut his mouth, his brows furrowed, just as he was about to continue probing.
The lightning struck the willow tree, and the last remaining branch, to the astonishment of the villagers, spread out and touched Zhou Xuan's brow.
"The Creation of Laws"
"You lack the strength to overcome this."
The Creation of Laws?
Upon hearing this word, Zhou Xuan's brows furrowed instantly.
With the system's assistance, Zhou Xuan, who had gained insights from the cultivation of many ancient emperors, great emperors, heavenly emperors, and even immortals, naturally knew what the Creation Tribulation was.
However, it was precisely because he knew that the Tribulation of Creation was a new path opened up outside of the Secret Realm Method, from existence to non-existence, that the Heavenly Tribulation would send down a test, which is why Zhou Xuan was full of confusion.
After all, in Zhou Xuan's view, both the Dao Scripture and the Chaos Emperor Scripture are methods of attaining enlightenment and cultivation derived from the Secret Realm Method.
Unlike the "Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique," which is a cultivation path that breaks away from the secret realm method and opens up independently.
Since it is an extension of the Secret Realm Technique, why would the Creation Tribulation occur?
Unless, of course, he has traveled back to an era before the creation of secret realm magic...
