Donghuang Ziji

Chapter 526: The Wheel of Pure Light Turns
Watching Shi Huajin leaving, Chu Tai's gaze shifted to the direction of the two days' collision.

As the void where the Dongji Chenguang Great Heaven and the Xianxiandaohua Great Heaven meet, the location of this passage is very special. It is not outside the highest Taixu layer of the Nine Layers of Heaven, but spans the third heaven Gangsha layer, the fourth heaven Leihuo layer, the fifth heaven Shenwang layer, the sixth heaven Zhouhe layer and the seventh heaven Xingdou layer.

The essence of this channel is closer to two overlapping voids.

The concepts of cosmic light, the universe, time, the void, etc. are all somewhat confused. The directions of front, back, up, down, left, right, and far and near distances will also change with the passage of time and the impact of the two days' collision.

Especially the core of the original handover, Penglai, the Taoist temple of Taiyi Zhenjun, was the place with the most serious overlap.

This is one of the reasons why many cultivators would go to the place where the two worlds meet and take charge. It was also the reason why Chu Tai was able to use the [Flying Immortal] magic to jump out of the Dongji Chenguang Heaven and enter the void where two days overlap.

In the eyes of many cultivators, Chu Tai did not actually leave the Dongji Chenguang Heaven at that time. At most, he only reached the outskirts of the border of the Heaven.

And now, Chu Tai's incarnations Shao Siming and Jingguang Tiannv are heading towards the Qingqing world they entered in the past.

However, when she really arrived at the Qingqing World, the Goddess of Pure Light couldn't help but recall the words of Monk Yu, and she hesitated.

Of course, she was not hesitant about whether to save this world, but she was hesitant about whether her salvation could bring a better ending.

Standing outside the sky, outside the perception range of the Ten Thousand Leaves and Thousand Stamens Lotus Mother, the Goddess of Pure Light called out to Shao Siming.

"Should we take a look at the creatures in that world first? If the creatures in that world have deep roots of goodness in their hearts, we can bring them into our great world after we repair the world. Daoist friends can then cast a spell to combine them with the earth veins and turn them into a part of our great world. If they are entangled with evil..."

The Pure Light Goddess did not continue to speak. Shao Siming was silent for a moment and said, "If the evildoers entangle with you, can you bear to burn them all with the red lotus fire?"

Shao Siming's words silenced Jin Guang Tian Nu again. She looked in the direction of the great sky and whispered, "Let's go in and take a look."

Shao Siming refused, "If you look at it with your current thoughts, I think you'd better not observe it."

"Why?"

The Goddess of Pure Light was a little confused, and Shao Siming stretched out her hand and a phantom appeared.

In a dilapidated mountain village, the villagers live on the mountain. In order to pray for peace, they regard a big banyan tree in front of the village as a god and pray for the banyan tree's protection.

Over time, the banyan tree developed spirituality and responded to the prayers of all living beings. It produced gold and silver leaves, jade and pearls, and brought good weather and harvest to the area. The mountain people worshipped it more devoutly and regarded it as a god.

But as time went on, the mountain people desired more and more, and their worship of the banyan tree gradually deteriorated, from the initial gratitude to greed for wealth and more things.

Finally, a mountain villager cut off a branch of the banyan tree. Seeing that the big banyan tree was not punished, the mountain villagers nearby followed suit, which eventually led to the dismemberment of the big banyan tree. Without the suppression of the banyan tree, the surrounding ground veins became chaotic, the ground cracked and the mountains collapsed, and the entire mountain village turned into ruins.

"Do you think these mountain people are good or bad? Kind or evil?"

Upon hearing this, the Pure Light Goddess showed a compassionate look on her face and said with emotion: "The universe is chaotic and human hearts are unpredictable. I always believe that it is easy to fall and difficult to stick to it. Although it is just an illusion, it is also a living being..." Halfway through her speech, the Pure Light Goddess seemed to have thought of something and refuted herself: "No, how can such an illusion explain the good or evil of human hearts? Doing good is the cause, and the result can be good or evil, just because a result does not necessarily come from a cause. A result may be the cause of many people gathered in Echeng. Judging good and evil by this is just like shooting the arrow first and then drawing the target, confusing people's minds."

"It seems you understand."

Shao Siming glanced at the Pure Light Goddess and spoke in a calm tone. The female Buddhist cultivator clasped her hands together and expressed her gratitude to Shao Siming. Then she looked towards the Qingqing World and said, "I want to move to this world to hone my skills. I wonder if you can give me some time to protect my body?"

"Are you willing to do it? You are only at the fifth level of cultivation now. If you want to enter it, you can only imitate the reincarnation of the soul. If you can't figure it out, at best your cultivation will be reversed, at worst you will die."

Shao Siming was somewhat surprised by the choice of the Pure Light Goddess, and the Goddess clasped her hands together, bowed to Shao Siming and said, "This is what I am doing to seek the Dao and prove the Dharma, so I have to do it. If you are willing, I will be grateful and will definitely repay you if you succeed. If you fail, I will give you my body, is that okay?"

"Just go ahead, I will keep an eye on you again. But you have to remember that you only have a year and a half at most. After that time is up, if you still can't figure it out, I can only wake you up and cast a spell to stop the Qingqing World from moving forward, to prevent it from really crashing into our Great Heaven."

"Thank you!"

After the Goddess of Pure Light finished speaking, she sat down cross-legged, with Buddha's light appearing around her body.

Upon seeing this, Shao Siming made hand gestures to arrange a formation to protect the physical body of the Pure Light Goddess, and watched her soul transform into spiritual light and fall into the Qingqing world.

Chu Tai, who was also paying attention to this change, silently made calculations and helped to bring together many "fates", then bowed to several other cultivators in the void who were observing the changes in this place.

Master Tianque looked at Chu Tai and said, "The illusion played by Shao Siming earlier was quite interesting, but what did you think of it?"

"It's just a rehash of what others have said."

Upon hearing this, Master Tianque smiled and said, "Even if it is the wisdom of our ancestors, it is a good thing if we can flexibly apply it to enlighten future generations. It shows that you, Daoist Brother Taining, have a deep wisdom and are far beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"There's no need to say more about this kind of boasting. I'm more curious, monk, have you found any trace of your disciple Dan Tu?"

Master Tianque put his hands together and said with a smile: "Although not, when Daoist friend cast the spell earlier, I vaguely felt that some fate was coming together. I think it won't be long before Tu will find me."

"That's a good thing."

Chu Tai responded with a smile, and exchanged a few words with several other Buddhist masters. When he left, he seemed to unintentionally ask Master Tianque a question about the Emei Sect.

Hearing this, Master Tianque's face also became solemn, and he whispered: "After Fellow Daoist Yunchi left, several fellow Taoists from Emei became more and more independent. I tried to persuade them several times, but they regarded it as betrayal. We haven't communicated for some time. As for the origin of the Buddha's light in the sky above Emei, I also think it is more likely to be from the Fanjing Mountain lineage, but the Buddha's light inside seems to have traces of other methods, so it cannot be confirmed for the time being."

Chu Tai was stunned for a moment: "Traces of other methods?"
