My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 711: Dao discussion (Hong Jun)

No.

The jade talisman, Changgeng, the Fiend Ancestor, the groundhog, the Pangu God...

Daoist Huang Long felt dizzy. He left the secret chamber in a daze and walked out of the Cave Abode. He stood beside the river and fell into a daze.

How did happiness disappear?

Have I been here too frequently recently?

Would Mother and Changgeng have any conflict... Changgeng is still a minister of the Heavenly Dao. My mother had previously escaped from the Heavenly Punishment. At this moment, she is only a remnant soul.

Why did things suddenly change?

Perfected Huang Long sighed softly. He suddenly felt that something was approaching him from behind. He subconsciously scanned with his immortal senses and could not help but freeze for a moment.

A gray-robed old Daoist priest.

He could not see his face or figure clearly. He could only sense that the other party’s aura was calm and righteous. It did not seem to be evil.

Just as Perfected Huang Long was about to turn around, he said, “Fellow Daoist...”

The gray-robed old Daoist priest attacked like the wind and pointed at Perfected Huang Long’s back. Perfected Huang Long’s essence soul was instantly sealed. His body swayed and fell onto the grass.

The gray-robed old Daoist priest slowly walked forward and gradually transformed into the yellow dragon.

However, after taking a few steps, the gray-robed old Daoist priest stopped...

He suddenly had a strange impulse. Hence, he lowered his head and looked at Huang Long, who was lying on the ground. A strange smile appeared on his lips.

After a while,

The riverbank calmed down again. The yellow dragon that the gray-robed old Daoist priest had transformed into had already walked into the river and was slowly engulfed by the water.

In the forest by the river, Perfected Huang Long was tied up under the branches of a huge tree. He hung on the branches and kept spinning. There was a comfortable and peaceful smile on his lips.

Not far away from the tree, Li Changshou’s paper effigy silently watched this scene from the trunk of a certain tree. He could not help but tilt his head.

This Heavenly Dao clone...

He was quite mischievous.

In the secret chamber of the secret Cave Abode, Li Changshou stood there quietly and looked at one of the partners of the Ancestral Dragon in the ancient times.

The other party was once one of the few experts of the ancient dragon race. Her strength was naturally not trivial. She had contributed to destroying the ancient Primordial World back then. Li Changshou naturally would not be disrespectful.

However, he would not be too polite.

He had actually come here for a transaction. He wanted to find out where the Fiend Ancestor had died and give the dragon race an opportunity.

The Dragon Mother was definitely not an ordinary living being. Moreover, she had been secretly observing the Primordial World. At that moment, she should be able to make a choice.

“Fellow Daoist, you haven’t said what you’re looking for.”

Li Changshou took out a treasure pouch from his sleeve and took out the God-Slaying Spear.

The God-Slaying Spear was shaken by the twenty-four heavens. It endured the same power that could kill a Saint. At the same time, the Sixth Saint’s essence evaporated the moment the twenty-four heavens covered the Sixth Saint.

At that moment, the divine spear actually showed an obvious curve. The murderous aura on it dissipated greatly, and its power was greatly reduced.

Li Changshou said, “The fragment of the God-Slaying Spear and the Fiend Ancestor’s Origins baneful aura.”

The Dragon Mother frowned. Her fluttering dragon whiskers swayed like water ripples.

“Just for the remaining power of the Fiend Ancestor?”

“Otherwise?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Apart from the Fiend Ancestor’s remnant baneful aura, what else do I need?”

As he spoke, Li Changshou extended his left hand and gently closed his fingers. Cracks appeared in the “air” in his palm and collapsed into a small black ball of nothingness.

Li Changshou closed his palm and the black ball was “destroyed”.

There was a hint of fear in the Dragon Mother’s eyes. She lowered her head and bowed. Then, she said, “As expected of the Grand Pure One who can kill Saints. The strength of his body has already reached this stage. However, how did you obtain such power?”

“Through the Heavenly Dao,” Li Changshou said calmly. “I found a small trick. It’s not enough to be called the Dao. Others can’t imitate it. Can you tell me now?”

As he spoke, Li Changshou blinked at the Dragon Mother. His speech was not affected at all.

“Where is the place where the Demon Ancestor is buried?”

The Dragon Mother said, “If you only want to find the essence power of the Demon Ancestor, you can go to the deepest earth meridian in the Aparagodānīya Continent to search. There’s no need to look for the Fiend Ancestor’s corpse.”

“The Fiend Ancestor still has a corpse?” Li Changshou immediately caught the main point.

“That’s right. That’s something that the Dao Ancestor can’t destroy,” the Dragon Mother said. “It happened in the ancient times and finally broke the chaotic battle of the Primordial World. Now, it’s depicted as the Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation breaking the Primordial World. In fact, the real battle only lasted for hundreds of years. It was just a battle between two factions.”

Li Changshou asked, “Dao and Fiend?”

“That’s right. The Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor. However, there was no ‘Dao’ at that time, nor was there the word ‘Fiend’. Ah...”

The Dragon Mother sighed slowly. “It should be said that two completely different Great Dao are fighting. The battle that destroyed the Primordial World and unbalanced the Heavenly Dao was actually just a Dao discussion between the Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor. The Fiend Ancestor lost to the Dao Ancestor in this Dao discussion.”

“Mother.”

Outside the secret chamber, the “Yellow Dragon” shouted and pushed open the stone door of the secret chamber.

Li Changshou immediately said, “Senior Brother, you shouldn’t listen to that. These are all secrets of the Heavenly Dao. The more you listen, the more dangerous it will be for you.”

Huang Long smiled and said, “Why can’t I listen?”

The dragon mother said calmly, “This is just a matter of the past. Huang’er, just stay here.”

Huang Long nodded slowly and naturally walked to the side of the portrait. He was less than half a foot away from the portrait.

At that moment, in the secret chamber, a living being, an ancient soul, and a Heavenly Dao’s will each had their own thoughts, but they were trying their best to maintain peace.

Li Changshou suddenly wanted to use this opportunity to tell the Heavenly Dao about a small portion of information that he knew. That way, the Heavenly Dao would not feel that that portion of information was a secret and would implicate other living beings.

Sometimes, one had to pay a huge price to cover a secret.

“However, when this secret is no longer mysterious, no one will pay much attention to it.”

Li Changshou looked at the Dragon Mother and said, “I actually knew about this Dao discussion long ago. A senior left an ark behind. There are many books inside. There seems to be nothing special about these manuals, but there are some paragraphs that are to be read horizontally and vertically. There are completely different explanations for them. That’s how I understand the different paths that the Fiend Ancestor and my Grandmaster chose.”

“Yes?”

The Dragon Mother’s eyes were filled with curiosity. “Dao Ancestor, please choose the path. You are really an interesting living being. In the Dao discussion that was hidden after the battle back then, there are only dozens of people who knew about it. They had all died. I’m really curious how much you know.”

“Huang Long” placed his hands behind his back. In order to respect his current image, he asked, “What Dao discussion?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “The debate between the Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor... I’m simpler. The Dao Ancestor’s Dao discussion was like that, ahem. The past is not the past, and the future is not the future. The Dao is endless. Everything in the future is decided by the past and the Dao. Senior Brother, don’t you understand? I’ll be more straightforward. My Grandmaster feels that everything in the world is in the Great Dao. If he grasps the three thousand Great Dao of the Primordial World and understands the past of a living being, he can deduce that this living being is in the Primordial World and will do anything at every node in the future. Everything is set. Everything is karma and can be controlled. Your decision has long been determined by your personality, your habits, the appearance of the things before you, the initial disturbances in your heart, and so on. Self-consciousness is just an illusion. It’s actually just some instinctive and counter-intuitive thinking.”

“Huang Long” nodded slowly and said, “Grandmaster had mentioned all of these when he was preaching in the Purple Cloud Palace. Where’s the Dao of the Fiend Ancestor, Rahu?”

“It’s not completely opposite, but there’s one thing that goes against each other. Rahu feels that the Dao of the Dao Ancestor is very ridiculous.”

Li Changshou slowly explained,

“The Dao of the Dao Ancestor is to entrust oneself to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. It is related to the Great Dao and emphasizes the laws of oneself. It neglects the ability of living beings. The Fiend Ancestor’s Dao was to devour everything. The Dao, Dharma, and living beings belonged to him. He was the strongest. I’ll say a few immoral words. The Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor had been pursuing the highest realm of living beings—omniscience and omnipotence. The Dao Ancestor’s omniscient ability is to have the power to deduce everything. He focused on omniscience and obtained all the information of the Primordial World. Through building a thinking network, he could achieve the effect of deducing everything and learning about the past and future. The Fiend Ancestor’s omniscient and omnipotent ability was to gather the power of the world into himself. Not only did he obtain the power of destruction and creation, but he had also reached the Pangu God realm. He could destroy everything and also create everything. He focused on omnipotence. When the two clashed, and both of them were the strongest experts of that era, they had the possibility of taking the final step. A huge battle was inevitable. I’m actually very curious. What did the Ancestral Dragon and the Primordial Phoenix follow back then? They have all followed the Pangu God. In the ancient battle, are they supporting the Dao Ancestor or the Fiend Ancestor?”

The Dragon Mother remained silent.

Huang Long said, “Father supported the Dao Ancestor. Senior Primordial Phoenix supported the Fiend Ancestor.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Then why did the winning party have the Sea Eye filled?”

Huang Long could not help but fall silent.

“No one won the battle back then.”

The Dragon Mother sighed slowly and said in a low voice.

“That is the end of an era. It is the final light of the Pangu God’s will. In the ancient times, living beings were free and unrestrained. Connate lifeforms were born by combining the Great Dao. The three thousand Great Dao were not just the three thousand Dao, but countless Great Dao. They were the rules of the world. There were Connate lifeforms in the world as representatives. That was the last light of living beings. The Heavenly Dao was only a thin array that enveloped the sky and earth. When that era reached the final point, all living beings would either be intoxicated by their own desires or start to think about the ultimate meaning of Dao. As you said, he is omniscient and omnipotent. That is the Primordial World. The current world is just a remnant of the Primordial World. It is just the remains of the ancient times. The living beings were glorious for a while and ultimately buried a great world. The Fiend Ancestor had been defeated, and the Dao Ancestor had been severely injured. The Heavenly Dao had risen, and the dragon race had become the first living beings to withstand the Heavenly Punishment. Now, there were no more records. Only the imprints of the strongest experts of that era were still circulating in the world. The Dao Ancestor, the Fiend Ancestor, the Ancestral Dragon, the Primordial Phoenix, the Qilin... I no longer have any Dharma powers. I just want to see the outcome. I want to wait for the outcome of the Dao discussion back then. Will it be like what the Dao Ancestor said? Will the world end up silent? I want to see...”

Huang Long nodded slowly and said, “Mother, don’t worry too much.”

“So,” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Where is the Fiend Ancestor’s corpse? I need to refine this divine spear properly.”

“The Nine Polluted Spring.” the Dragon Mother sighed and said, “It’s a place that living beings can’t touch.”

Li Changshou frowned slightly and looked at his mother for a while. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, “In that case, I can only go to the Aparagodānīya Continent to collect baneful aura.”

Huang Long nodded slowly and said, “Why don’t I help Junior Brother?”

“There’s no need.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior Brother, don’t get involved in these matters. Grandmaster and I are on different paths now. Although I’m a fan of Grandmaster, my ideals are ultimately different.”

“Different ideologies?”

Huang Long smiled and said, “Junior Brother, what do you think of the theory between Grandmaster and the Demon Ancestor?”

Li Changshou chuckled in his heart. He had accepted the word “fan” so easily. He even said that it had nothing to do with Senior Lang’s memories?

“What omniscience?” Li Changshou smiled and said, “They have all taken the wrong path and neglected a crucial factor. The border. The boundary of omniscience is that you can’t grasp all the information. For example, the Heavenly Dao could never be perfect. Even if it could escape from the Primordial World in an era and reach an almost omniscient state, there would always be flaws and variables. That was decided by the lowest level of the Great Dao. The boundary of omnipotence is that you can’t escape the most basic Great Dao. Changing these Great Dao is self-reflection. After the timeline loses its meaning, one step forward is self-destruction. Therefore, theories under ideal conditions can only remain as theories. Practice is the only standard to verify the truth.”

Huang Long was stunned. He muttered to himself, “Practice is the way to verify the truth...”

Li Changshou placed his hands behind his back and sighed.

“Judging from the current situation, Grandmaster is determined to give it a try. I will naturally leave at the appropriate time. As long as I escape, Grandmaster will be able to sense the existence of the border. Perhaps, he will give up on pursuing the so-called omnipotence. I suddenly understood why the Pangu God chose to die after splitting open the sky. Why did so many Connate Godfiends choose to fight to the death with the Pangu God? Why did they not want to give up a small boundary in the Chaos Sea and establish a world? Thank you for your guidance, Senior. Take care.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Changshou casually drew a circle. The Taiji Painting slowly appeared. The black and white Taiji fish chased each other. Then, they turned into a ball of gray and opened a door.

Just as Li Changshou was about to leave, he suddenly turned to look at Huang Long and smiled.

“I have an interesting idea. Senior Brother, why don’t you consider it? How did the Chaos Sea come about? The state of the Chaos Sea did not seem like a living being who had once pursued the end of the Great Dao. In order to achieve omniscience and omnipotence, it progressed towards self-destruction. From then on, the Dao laws would shatter and the laws would not appear. The endless energy would return to the original and initial state of having no attributes. That is the Chaos state.”

After saying that, Li Changshou entered the Cosmic Door. In front of him was a sea of clouds that seemed to be the Heavenly Courts.

When the door slowly closed, “Huang Long” frowned and turned to look at the portrait beside him. The remnant soul of the dragon mother had already returned to the portrait.

“Hmph!”

...

“Eh? What is this?”

In the forest by the river, Daoist Huang Long opened his eyes and realized that he was tied up and hanging on the tree. The immortal rope that bound him was quite powerful, and he could not break free for a while.

However...

This technique, this restraint, this indescribable feeling of being restrained, this feeling of being cared for.

“Hey...”

The old Daoist priest blushed and squinted. He sighed softly and slowly turned half a round in the air.

Li Changshou, who was hiding in a tree trunk not far away, silently raised his hand and poked his eyes.

Not long after, Perfected Huang Long recalled that the situation was not right. He saw a gray-robed old Daoist priest who easily restrained him. He did not know what he did after that.

He hurriedly struggled free of the immortal rope and entered the river.

Li Changshou waited quietly by the side. He was also waiting for an outcome.

Was the remnant soul of the dragon mother alive or dead?

Although that was not important, Li Changshou... desperately wanted to know the outcome.

An hour later, Perfected Huang Long held his hands behind his back and hummed a tune. He floated out of the river and rode a cloud out of the valley. His eyes were filled with peace.

Li Changshou raised his eyebrows and smiled subconsciously. He quietly dissolved the paper effigy in the tree trunk.

It was not unexpected.

Nine Polluted Spring...

He had already returned to the main body of the Heavenly Courts and was lying on the reclining chair in front of the Pill Chamber again. It was as if he had never moved before.

The Nine Polluted Spring was not something that living beings could touch. It was also a place that living beings could not find.

The Fiend Ancestor’s corpse was suppressed in the Nine Polluted Springs, or rather, it triggered the Nine Polluted Springs. It was a reasonable explanation.

Could the Dragon Mother be lying?

To be precise, why would the Dragon Mother tell me the truth?

She is originally a supporter of the Dao Ancestor. That place is very likely a secret pawn of the Dao Ancestor.

Li Changshou’s words to “Huang Long” were actually meant for the Dao Ancestor to hear. He wanted the Dao Ancestor not to kill innocent people to hide any secrets.

Li Changshou naturally had reservations about the last assumption. He did not mention the last part.

If he really pointed it out, he would probably be chased to the Chaos Sea or slapped to death by the Dao Ancestor.

Those words were...

“I remember that I once saw in the eyes of a senior Groundhog that during the Chaos Sea’s creation battle, Hong Jun had appeared and was spared by the Pangu God.”

“According to the rules of the Chaos Sea, even the Pangu Gods were living beings born from the resonance of many True Spirits and Great Dao. Their strength was measured in terms of how many True Spirits they could attract. That was also the fundamental reason why the Pangu God and the three thousand Godfiends became stronger the more they fought.”

“Hong Jun was a living being born after the resonance of a single True Spirit and the Great Dao. He had great strength and was called by the Pangu God.”

The ideal life form of a single-spirit.

Thinking about it carefully, he was extremely afraid.

Li Changshou raised his hand and yawned. He adjusted his lying position and quietly waited for the little fairy to fly over from afar.

Ling’e was still the most comfortable. She did not have to consider anything.
