Chapter 696: Fallen Dao, Mysterious Dao Ancestor
"I... My name is Dudao. Even if I tell you my origins, you may not know it..."
The mysterious monkey said in panic. Jiang Changsheng's fingers were pressing on its forehead and it couldn't move. This made it both frightened and confused.
What's going on?
Why was I held down when I woke up?
Are the strong people of this era already so terrifying?
"Fallen Dao? What a crazy name. No matter if I know it or not, just tell me. If you tell me a lie, you will be annihilated. Don't doubt whether I can do it."
Jiang Changsheng stared at it expressionlessly, his tone indifferent.
Upon hearing this, Dudao hurriedly said, "I was born in the era of the Immortal Path, but the Immortal Path has long been extinct. You may not know that I was raised by the Mysterious Dao Ancestor. Before the Immortal Path was extinct, he sealed me up with a Taoist method called the Great Heaven Stealing Technique. I escaped a disaster until today, when I was finally unsealed..."
It spoke all at once, spitting out many names that Jiang Changsheng had never heard of.
The Era of Immortality!
The mysterious Taoist ancestor!
Jiang Changsheng was attracted by these two names. This guy was indeed from the ancient immortal way, but what was the mysterious Taoist ancestor?
He couldn't help but think of the mysterious figure he met when he moved away the ancient immortal world. That person also called himself the Taoist Ancestor. Could he be the mysterious Taoist Ancestor?
In an instant, Jiang Changsheng suddenly felt that cause and effect made sense.
He finally understood why he had the urge to solve the puzzle when he saw the Greedy God Monument. It turned out to be that man's work .
As Dudao told the story of the ancient immortal way, more and more causes and effects appeared in Jiang Changsheng's eyes.
It turned out that when Taoist Xuanmiao saw Jiang Changsheng reversing the fate of all living beings in the past from the future, he came up with an idea, and falling into Taoism was his attempt.
The reason why Tan Yin was looking for variables was because of the Taoist Xuanmiao. Because the immortal way was destroyed, when the new immortal way appeared, that would be a variable. However, over the long years, somehow, the will that was supposed to look for variables turned into swallowing variables.
After Dudao had been talking for a long time, Jiang Changsheng interrupted him and asked, "During the process of being sealed, your consciousness should still be there, right?"
Dudao was stunned for a moment, then said cautiously, "Still here, but it's too boring, so I sleep most of the time. The last time I woke up was probably... about 50 or 60 million years ago. Senior, what's wrong? I didn't mean to offend you just now. I just woke up and didn't understand the situation clearly!"
Speaking of this, it feels quite aggrieved.
Jiang Changsheng asked: "What is the relationship between Tan Yin and you?"
"Tan Yin? I can never coexist with those bastards!" Dudao said angrily . As soon as he finished speaking, he shrank his neck and dared not look directly into Jiang Changsheng's eyes.
Under Jiang Changsheng's cold gaze, it revealed its relationship with Tan Yin.
It turns out that a long time ago, the Taoist sect it assisted was called Gu Yin. When it saw that Gu Yin was similar to the immortal sect, it emitted its own causal power to support them and guide them in their cultivation. However, it never expected that a rebellion broke out within Gu Yin while it was sleeping. Some people rebelled against the Taoist sect and founded Tan Yin. In order to become stronger quickly, they targeted the causal power of Fallen Dao. When Fallen Dao woke up, countless causes and effects were connected to it, and it could no longer get rid of it, and could only endure their endless absorption.
Fortunately, it has a high level of Taoism. In the years to come, it will begin to absorb the power of Greed and turn them into its puppets.
When it has completely taken control of the cause of greed, it begins a long sleep, waking up only once every hundreds of millions of years.
It had been waiting for the day to break the seal, but it never expected it to come so suddenly, and the other party would press it with two fingers.
Jiang Changsheng felt that it was not lying, because as soon as these words came out, he saw the cause and effect of those events. If there is cause and effect, it means that it is real.
He withdrew his right hand, then stood up, picked up the Fallen Dao and flashed back to the Qianyuan Divine Throne of the Great Dao.
Dudao didn't dare to move. He asked cautiously, "Senior, was it Tan Yin who provoked you? It has nothing to do with me! I didn't order them to do that!"
It was afraid that Jiang Changsheng would be angry with it and it would die just after waking up. That would be too painful.
Jiang Changsheng said: "I am the ancestor of the current immortal way, and I opened up the immortal way."
Upon hearing this, Dudao was stunned for a moment, his eyes slowly widened, looking extremely cute, completely different from his previous fierce appearance.
"Immortal Dao... Daozu... Could it be..."
Dudao muttered to himself, his monkey body no longer trembling, and he lost his previous timidity. Instead, he had a more vicissitudes and sad temperament.
Jiang Changsheng asked : "What are your plans for the future?"
Dudao came back to his senses and said, "Of course I will join the immortal way. Former... Daoist Ancestor, please accept me. I am willing to assist you..."
When the word "Daozu" was spoken, its expression was quite awkward.
Jiang Changsheng picked it up and disappeared from the spot.
Next second.
They came to the Earthly Immortal Realm and landed in a scenic mountain forest. There was a yard with many flowers, plants and medicinal herbs planted in it, and the air was filled with sandalwood.
They landed in the courtyard and made some noise on purpose. Bai Qi followed them out of an attic. When she saw that it was Jiang Changsheng, she was immediately overjoyed and wanted to pounce on him.
"Set up a table. I want to have a good chat with it."
Jiang Changsheng spoke, causing Bai Qi to stop.
The fallen creature he was holding kept sniffing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and its eyes became more and more lively.
"That's right, it's the immortal spiritual energy... Master... I didn't expect you could even calculate this..."
Dudao was filled with emotion, and the sorrow in his heart lingered for a long time.
It can no longer remember the true appearance of the mysterious Taoist ancestor, but only remembers his name. The Great Dao is erasing the traces of the immortal way, and it has long lost hope in the revival of the immortal way, so it has fallen into eternal sleep. At least the immortal way still exists in its dreams.
Unexpectedly, countless years later, it could be awakened by the second Taoist Ancestor.
In some mysterious way, this might be destiny, the tenacity that comes from the way of immortality.
When Dudao heard that Jiang Changsheng wanted to talk to him, he was not afraid. He was also full of curiosity about the current immortal way.
Bai Qi heard this and took quick action.
Soon, a table of wine and food was set up in the yard. Bai Qi stood beside Jiang Changsheng, pouring wine for him. He frequently looked at Dudao with wary eyes.
For some reason, she always felt that falling into depravity was not a good thing.
It looks sneaky.
Dudao didn't know what she was thinking, and how should it respond to Jiang Changsheng's answer.
In Fallen Dao's memory, there are no names such as the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Buddhas and the Leader of Kunlun. Obviously, it was born at the time after Jiang Changsheng moved the ancient world away. The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Buddhas and others had weak cultivation at the beginning. After Jiang Changsheng changed the cause and effect, they had already subtly forgotten the things of the ancient immortal way. They already believed that they belonged to the current immortal way.
"The world where I was born is called Nanyuan Great World. There is no war there, and there is not even any racial distinction. All living things in the world live in harmony and survive by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Until one day, my master, Xuanmiao Daozu, arrived..."
Dudao held up a wine bowl that was bigger than his paw and spoke with an old man's emotional tone.
Mysterious Taoist Ancestor?
Bai Qi's pupils shrank, and she suddenly realized that she was exposed to something extraordinary. Her master asked her to be there, and he must have hoped that she could be exposed to it, so she sat down and listened carefully.
Dudao narrated his life experience, starting from his childhood. As it spoke more and more, scenes of the ancient immortal world began to emerge before Jiang Changsheng's eyes.
Cause and effect are concrete, and the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian can peek into the past and the future through words.
Bai Qi felt something was wrong as he listened.
Listening to what this monkey said, it seems that it does not belong to the current immortal path.
Are there other ways to immortality?
The immortal way has been in the universe for more than 20 million years. Bai Qi has naturally heard some rumors about the universe. It is said that there are some sects similar to the immortal way in the depths of the universe, or there are ancient relics of the immortal way. This shows that the immortal way may have existed a long time ago.
She had previously suspected that her master was the reincarnation of an ancient immortal. Just like those powerful sects, the ancient immortal path experienced destruction, and her master had to reincarnate and rebuild the immortal path.
Hundreds of reincarnations, perhaps each life is very long, and it is a life of Taoism.
Half an hour later.
Jiang Changsheng's causal deduction reached a certain point. His consciousness sensed something and jumped out of his body directly, coming to a space that no one could understand.
This is a space that only the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian can set foot in, and this is the first time he has discovered it.
The space is dark, with stars twinkling.
He saw a figure sitting in meditation in front of him, with a black lotus seat beneath him, and dark red visions constantly appearing from it.
“You’re finally here.”
The other party spoke, his tone calm.
Jiang Changsheng replied: "As long as we arrive, it's not too late, right?"
The other party slowly moved forward and revealed his figure. It was an old man in Taoist robes, with white hair tied up under a crane crown. He had an immortal look. Although he was old, he had a strong body. There was an indescribable majesty between his brows. Looking into his eyes, one would feel a great sense of oppression.
Jiang Changsheng could feel that the other party was far beyond the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.
But that was only before he died.
Now he is just a wisp of will that will eventually dissipate.
“The holy realm of immortality, well, you have taken an unprecedented path, and your holy realm is stronger than mine.” The other party said with emotion.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, "It's just that I inherited the opportunities from my ancestors. Without the inheritance, I would just be a mortal ."
The other party shook his head and said: "Everything is ultimately fate, nothing is accidental."
Jiang Changsheng listened to his words and felt deeply moved.
The Taoist master's words sounded like he accepted his fate, just as he did the last time he traveled through time. However, he did not act in a resigned manner.
"The path to immortality no longer exists. The road you take will be more difficult than ours. Once you achieve the holy realm, you will definitely be noticed by the Great Dao. Next, you must be extremely careful and don't get lost in the power of the holy realm. The calamity of the Great Dao will come in ways you can't predict." Xuanmiao Taoist said seriously.
Jiang Changsheng nodded and said, "If you can reveal it, what advice do you have for me?"
The Taoist Master Xuanmiao showed a nostalgic look on his face, and said: "I don't know what year it is today. The fact that you can come here means that you have come into contact with the Fallen Path. Protect it well. One day, it will be able to protect you from a disaster. Perhaps that will be a ray of hope for the Immortal Path to break through the shackles of the Great Dao."
Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows. Is falling into Taoism so powerful?
