Paving the Way for All Beings, Primordial Purple Qi
Chapter 75 Paving the Way for All Beings, Primordial Purple Qi
Gui Xuan sighed inwardly.
Throughout the ancient and sacred world, countless people sought the Dao.
How many people could actually do that?
Gui Xuan was moved by the desire of the Styx Ancestor to seek the Dao.
"Very well, since your desire for the Dao is so steadfast, I will go beyond that and preach to you, to see if you can comprehend your own Dao from what I preach."
After speaking, he sat cross-legged in the void, exuding a magnificent aura.
The transgression he referred to was meddling in the affairs of Taoism.
Unlike Nuwa and Hongyun, Guixuan preached the Dao to Nuwa in accordance with the will of Heaven, helping Nuwa to understand her own path, attain sainthood, and contribute to the growth of the Xuanmen's fortune.
The reason for preaching to Hongyun is that Hongyun has been abandoned and is in dire straits.
Helping him escape his tribulation is considered giving him a new life; he is no longer considered a member of the Xuanmen (Taoist sect).
Now that Styx is kneeling and begging for the Dao, he is preparing to completely submit to his sect and break away from the Xuanmen.
In order to prove the Way.
The reason it is called "transgression" is simply to claim the moral high ground in name only.
You begged me, it wasn't my own choice.
If that old rascal Hongjun gets strange, don't blame me!
Tears welled in Styx's eyes. "Styx thanks the Dao Ancestor for bestowing upon me the Dharma!"
When the Dao Ancestor Guixuan began his lectures again, the primordial world was in an uproar.
The primordial powerhouses and innate saints who had been paying close attention to the Netherworld Blood Sea moved upon hearing the sound.
Nuwa, who had already attained sainthood, also appeared in the Netherworld Blood Sea. The Red Cloud Ancestral Buddha, along with the Buddhist Buddhas, arrived one after another and sat cross-legged in the void.
The Three Pure Ones, who had been wandering the primordial land in search of an opportunity to become saints, no longer delayed and appeared one after another.
"We humbly request the Daoist Ancestor to bestow upon us the Dharma!"
The voices of all living beings in the primordial world were vast and boundless.
The holy throne is nearing its end, the road ahead is narrow, and the people are filled with despair.
All spirits beg the Dao Ancestor of Guixuan to open the way forward and bestow upon them the Daoist teachings.
This scene was so intense that even in the midst of chaos, Hongjun's eyes widened in horror.
This is a sign that all living beings in the primordial world are about to betray the Xuanmen!
Where does this leave the Taoist patriarch of the Xuanmen sect?
He wanted to kill Gui Xuan, but he couldn't make a move.
Hongjun, who had merged with the Dao, could not interfere in the prehistoric world at will. After all, Guixuan had not done anything to harm the prehistoric world. On the contrary, he had stopped the fighting in the previous war between the Lich King and the Demon King and helped to restore peace to the world.
It also helped Nuwa attain sainthood and enhance the fortune of the Xuanmen sect.
It helps the operation of the primordial Heavenly Dao.
Furthermore, Hongjun still owes Guixuan a great debt of karma that he has not yet repaid.
All things considered, even if Hongjun was not bound by the Heavenly Dao, he could only watch helplessly as all living beings knelt before Guixuan, disregarding his own Xuanmen Ancestor Hongjun.
The Netherworld Blood Sea.
Gui Xuan looked at the countless primordial creatures densely packed beneath him and remained silent.
He was just a little sorry for the seeker of the Dao, the Styx Ancestor, not wanting him to fall into ruin.
I never expected it to cause such a big commotion.
But upon closer reflection, he realized that this might actually be a good thing.
His Dao itself exists within the myriad spirits of the primordial world.
Based on the myriad spirits of the primordial world, they are allowed to comprehend their own Dao. As the Dao Ancestor, the source of all Daos, he directly absorbs the Dao essence of all spirits.
I help all beings attain enlightenment, and all beings give back to me, so that all beings may help me attain enlightenment.
"But in this way, it would be virtually impossible for any primordial deity to surpass me."
Gui Xuan thought to himself.
Unless a being can break free from his path, truly detach itself, and find another new path.
However, this method is countless times more difficult than his path of mastering the laws.
"The Heavenly Cycle is forty-nine, and one is hidden away; all things and all spirits should have a sliver of opportunity to attain the Dao."
"The Primordial Heavenly Dao needs to be perfected. There are nine Saintly positions, which represent the ultimate in Heaven and Earth, but are not yet complete. Today, I will preach the Dao for all beings of the Heavenly Dao and for the Primordial Heavenly Dao."
"To pave the way for all beings, to seek the truth for all beings!"
Gui Xuan's voice was ethereal, sounding like a sigh, like a lament.
boom!
The heavens and earth trembled.
Countless strange phenomena appeared in the primordial world, purple energy rose, and spiritual energy permeated the air.
To pave the way for all living beings in the primordial world—such a grand vision and magnanimous heart inspire awe and reverence in them.
The Styx Ancestor, who had been kneeling at Gui Xuan's feet, went numb, roaring inwardly, "Mine! All mine!!"
"The Dao Ancestor said he was seeking the Dao for me, what are you doing?!"
The sudden change almost made the Styx Ancestor curse.
He was already prepared to leave the Xuanmen sect and join another Dao Ancestor, so why are there so many people trying to steal his thunder?
His Dao heart almost collapsed.
Perhaps sensing the emotions of the Styx Ancestor, Guixuan gently lifted him up.
"Sit down, and I will preach to you!"
Ancestor Styx was grateful, bowed respectfully, and sat cross-legged in front of Gui Xuan.
At this moment, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, accompanied by the Great Witches, and the Three Sovereigns of the Demon Clan, accompanied by the Demon Saints and Demon Gods, appeared and sat cross-legged nearby.
in silence.
This sermon is a great opportunity.
No one wants to miss out on the myriad creatures of the primordial world.
Seeing that everything was almost done, Guixuan didn't delay any longer.
The Five Great Emperors appeared in the five primordial worlds, expanding by billions of miles, and sat cross-legged in the void.
As soon as the Five Emperors appeared, all living beings in the Five Worlds respectfully paid homage and finally sat cross-legged on the ground, quietly awaiting the Daoist teachings.
In an instant, the pure energy of heaven and earth floated, and the Daoist rhyme rose.
Since we are paving the way for all living beings, let's do it thoroughly.
He preached the primordial chaos once more.
This time, I will preach to all living beings in the primordial world.
Three enormous golden wheels of merit appeared behind Gui Xuan.
The Golden Wheel of Merit that he had originally taken was restored when Nuwa created humans, and even the fourth Golden Wheel of Merit has appeared in phantom form.
A twelve-petaled pure white lotus appeared beneath him, and Gui Xuan sat cross-legged upon it.
A series of Daoist principles, cleansing the mind and spirit, spread outwards from Gui Xuan in all directions.
The primordial beings, whose hearts were originally restless, began to quiet down and concentrate after being cleansed by the Daoist principles, and their minds became clear.
At this moment, Gui Xuan's tongue was already blooming like a lotus flower, and the Daoist voice came from his mouth.
The primordial spiritual energy manifests in the void, demonstrating the Dao to the weak creatures between heaven and earth.
His teachings differed from those of Hongjun.
The Dao spoken by Hongjun is the general outline of the Xuanmen (mysterious sect), which you need to comprehend, appreciate, and carefully contemplate.
Only in this way can one forge one's own path amidst the myriad paths and the ocean of laws.
The Dao as described by Gui Xuan simplifies complexity and forms its own system.
As long as you cultivate according to his teachings, you will eventually achieve something.
If you want to go further, you need to find your own path among all these paths.
The biggest difference becomes clear here.
Hongjun gave a general outline, which was rather vague; while Guixuan not only gave all the beings in the primordial world a general outline, but also included a table of contents.
Just tell me which path you want to take.
After you finish explaining, you're supposed to find it yourself according to the table of contents?!
If you can't find your own path, then you're doomed.
Go find the Taoist Ancestor yourself.
As Gui Xuan's teachings became increasingly profound, the billions of beings in the primordial world began to find them difficult to grasp and could only resort to rote memorization.
Only the primordial beings with strength at the middle and upper levels continue to exist.
The workings of heaven and earth began to change as Gui Xuan preached the Dao.
Hundreds of millions of golden lamps appeared, their boundless light illuminating the primordial world.
At times, the roars of ten thousand beasts echoed from Gui Xuan's body, and at other times, the soft chirping of spirit birds could be heard.
The array's mystical light swirled and danced, while weapons exuded a murderous aura.
Amidst the clamor of voices, the entanglement of cause and effect, the flow of time, and the unfolding of space.
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth gather together, and worlds appear one after another, only to vanish and disappear.
Earth, water, wind, and fire permeate the heavens and the void, creating and regenerating.
When he preached the Dharma to all beings.
The spirits of the three heavens, which had been nurtured for countless years within the small world on the turtle's back, began to stir.
The three spirits, which had been silent and still, began to emit tri-colored light.
The three heavens—Azure Sky, Blue Sky, and Yellow Sky—are transformed.
Ultimately, it became three strange spaces, rotating around the small world on the turtle's back.
The small world underwent earth-shattering changes, evolving into a middle-thousand world in the blink of an eye!
Gui Xuan's aura also surged.
His original late-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm was further enhanced.
It only stops when it reaches a state of near perfection.
This was accompanied by an increase in combat power.
Gui Xuan, with his ability to multitask, possesses combat power equivalent to that of a Hunyuan Wuji Da Luo Jinxian. Old man, you really can't do anything to me this time.
Even if all six saints were to appear, he would still have the strength to fight them.
As time passed, a full cycle of time was completed in the blink of an eye.
People are so immersed in the profound and ethereal sounds of Taoism that they cannot extricate themselves.
Those who understand experience it like drinking sweet dew; those who do not understand it are like sand slipping through their fingers, impossible to hold onto.
As countless beings in the primordial world were immersed in the Daoist rhythm, the Daoist rhythm of the twelve-petaled Pure World White Lotus beneath Guiyuan was enhanced once again.
This is his way of helping billions of living beings in the primordial world enter a deeper level of enlightenment.
After doing all this, Gui Xuan stared intently into the void.
boom!
The heavens and earth expand, and the world grows larger.
The already vast and boundless primordial land expanded once again.
Countless laws converged, and the energy of creation permeated the heavens and earth.
With the world at peace, the desolate land, scarred by countless battles, began to be gradually repaired.
The space and the devastated land that were shattered in the previous Lich War are now once again filled with spiritual energy and the Daoist rhythm.
It has even become a strange place due to the various battle traces left there from the previous great war.
Along with the western ley lines that were destroyed by the demon Rahu at the end of the last great calamity during the conflict between the Dao and the Demon, more than 20% of them have been restored.
A thick beam of golden light, representing merit, descended from the sky and landed on Gui Xuan.
This is a reward for your merits to the vast and boundless world.
With so much Heavenly Dao merit falling upon him, Gui Xuan narrowed his eyes but did not absorb it.
Instead, they gathered them in the back of their minds, and one after another, huge golden wheels of merit appeared.
Finally, twelve enormous golden wheels of merit floated behind his head, illuminating the heavens.
If such a great deal of Heavenly Merit were placed on an ordinary mortal, he could instantly become a saint by absorbing it.
To achieve the status of a virtuous saint.
Another century passed before all living beings in the primordial world finally awoke.
I felt content, as if I had seen the Tao.
But as soon as they woke up, they sensed that something was wrong.
The world seems to have changed.
The sky becomes higher, and the earth becomes wider; it can accommodate more living beings between heaven and earth.
Joy and excitement.
This is an emotion originating from the primordial Heavenly Dao, infecting all living beings.
Gazing at the twelve enormous golden wheels of merit behind the Dao Ancestor Guixuan in the void, all living beings were horrified.
Hongyun Ancestral Buddha was the first to respectfully bow, saying, "May the Daoist Ancestor Guixuan's compassion bestow boundless merit upon me!"
"The Dao Ancestor Guixuan has shown mercy!!"
Countless living beings in the primordial world bowed their heads in reverence.
Gui Xuan accepted it calmly and slowly opened his mouth.
"Changes in heaven and earth are changes in the world."
"As the primordial world expanded, it caused changes in all things, giving all living beings more space to survive."
"I hope you will remember the power of Heaven and Earth, and never easily engage in killing or destroy the primordial world."
Millions of living beings felt ashamed and declared, "We humbly obey the decree of the Dao Ancestor!"
Gui Xuan nodded, his face filled with sorrow.
"I pave the way for all beings, and I should personally experience it."
As he spoke, the twelve golden wheels of merit behind him rapidly disintegrated.
This sight shocked countless beings in the primordial world. Before they could react, they heard Dao Guixuan's voice ring out again.
"Using the power of the Heavenly Dao's merits within me as a guide, I hope that the Heavenly Dao will have mercy on the hearts of all spirits seeking the Dao."
"To pave the way for all beings!"
Click!
A crisp sound rang out, and all the Heavenly Dao Merit Power on Gui Xuan's body vanished.
The beings of the primordial world are already moved to tears.
"I kneel and bow to the Dao Ancestor Guixuan, for your mercy, Dao Ancestor Guixuan!!"
boom!
Three new streams of primordial purple energy appeared in the void.
This caused a tremor in the hearts and minds of billions of living beings in the primordial world.
