Chapter 643: The End of the Dharma is also the Dharma

Black clouds and mist spread, followed by colorful rays of light, and an aura of the end of the law arose, with the world decaying, the law collapsing, people's hearts degenerating, and morality no longer existing.

Chu Tai, who was in this kind of atmosphere, saw more things. He had mastered multiple fragments of the Dao Fruit through the Dharma of [Da Yi] and could see that behind the atmosphere of the Dharma Ending Period were the concrete products of the spiritual emotions of countless sentient beings, such as joy, sorrow, excitement, pain, etc. These spiritual emotions were the fluctuations emitted unconsciously by all sentient beings in the world, and they were intertwined with the dark to form a boundless web.

On this big net, countless emotions are deposited and constantly gathered together, vaguely connecting several extremely large and terrifying existences.

At this time, Taoist Wutai integrated the embryonic form of his own Tao fruit into one of the statues, triggering countless chaotic, exclusive, and overbearing forces in these spiritual auras.

There was a poor young man who watched his mother lying seriously ill in bed without any medical care or medicine. After his loved one fell into eternal sleep, he burned the statue of god that the family worshipped day and night.

"Since I can't help you in need, what's the point of keeping you here..."

There were herbalists who tried to make a living in the deep mountains and snowfields, but because of a fight between monks, they were buried under the snow and left to die.

"I don't want to die..."

There was a wealthy businessman who had immense wealth and was a good man, but overnight, because of the pranks of a monk, his family was destroyed and he ended up wandering in the wilderness, dying miserably.

"I hate it! Hate it! Hate it..."

The numerous emotions of resentment and despair towards the immortals, Buddhas and monks, combined with those chaotic, exclusive and overbearing forces, continued to spread outward, and under the guidance of the Five Poisons of the Taoist Wutai, they turned into a turbid current in the world of mortals, giving rise to the breath of the end of the law that corrupted the Taoism of evil people, suppressed the law, and disrupted the order.

Looking at the layers of red dust that kept falling like gauze and curtains, and feeling the endless, rich and persistent emotions and desires contained in them, Chu Tai sighed.

The five poisons of the mortal world, the evil spirits in people's hearts, and the wonders of the connection between heaven and man, even his [Yang Shen]'s "righteousness" and "pure yang" cannot be burned out completely. Instead, they will be burned out again and again. Because of his own thoughts, the five poisons will attack his heart and affect him unconsciously, causing his own interpretation of "righteousness" and "pure yang" to gradually deviate and eventually become more and more confused.

Shifting his gaze, Chu Tai also saw that under this force, the lives of many places in the East China Sea have been affected. The long-standing customs and order of the places began to collapse, and moral ethics were destroyed under the guidance of the Five Poisons. People's hearts were turbid, and they began to fight against each other. Everyone wanted to live a better life, even if it required slandering the innocence of others, even if it required infringing on the interests of others, even if it required sacrificing the lives of others. As long as they could live well and happily, everything was worth it.

All ideas and concepts that are different from theirs and have different values ​​should not exist and should be suppressed, criticized and insulted.

There is no need to care about established customs or moral and ethical condemnations. Everything is centered on making your own life comfortable, even if this choice will destroy the balance of order that everyone maintains together.

Chu Tai knew that he couldn't go on like this. Once people's hearts were corrupted, it would be difficult to repair them. At the same time, once morality collapsed, it would be difficult to rebuild it.

The collapse of human morality will inevitably make the power of the Dharma Ending Age even stronger. If we don’t stop it now, we will have no chance later.

"In that case, why not burn them all together!"

Looking at the Taoist Wutai who had merged into Junmo, looking at the increasingly chaotic atmosphere around him, looking at the Taoist Xunling who was gradually unable to suppress the power of the Blood Demon, looking at the cultivators who were gathering from all directions and whose aura was becoming increasingly turbid.

Chu Tai also made the decision to abandon this incarnation. Infinite light and heat emanated from it, further combining with the Tao and principles of Taiyi Zhenjun. The two intertwined together, generating layer upon layer of light and flames.

When Taoist Xunling saw this scene, he also leaped up and merged the blood light stained with Jun Mo Dao into Chu Tai's light. The human heart and the ghost changed in the reproduction of life, and were attracted by the "positive" condensed by Chu Tai, and finally under the power of Taiyi Zhenjun, subtle changes occurred.

Chu Tai stood up in the Jinhua Cave Heaven. He suddenly had a feeling that this method of guiding people's hearts and minds seemed to be somewhat similar to the situation faced by the incarnations of Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen in foreign lands.

He stretched out his hands and made hand gestures, and under the power of [Da Yi], the two were clearly combined.

Instantly, a tiny bit of "Dharma" emerged from the flames. This "Dharma" was a rule, a law, an order, and a method...

It is a criterion for maintaining social order that is produced after the [positive] guidance of [life] and [mind]. It is also the etiquette and law that constrain the worldly affairs. It is a brand-new system that fits the Dharma-Ending Age.

"This is……"

Feeling the emergence of this force, Taoist Wutai was horrified to discover that the power of Junmo Dao that matched his own was actually tilted. The power that was originally bestowed on him began to shift towards Chu Tai's direction and began to gather in the golden flames, guiding the [Dharma] within it to change in the direction that Junmo hoped for, and this process of change still used it as fuel.

"No, this can't be possible! This shouldn't be possible!"

Taoist Wutai wanted to struggle, but how could he break free from Junmo's thoughts when he had already integrated the embryonic form of his own Taoism into it? He could only vaguely sense a little bit of Junmo's thoughts.

Junmo has already walked the path of the Dharma Ending Age, and the new order is the path he is still exploring. Compared to Wutai who wants to retrace his path, Junmo's Daoguo hopes that the new [Dharma] will expand and supplement himself.

"No! I won't lose..."

Taoist Wutai also threw himself into the golden flames, allowing the principles of many monarchs and demons to converge in it. He tried to rely on his last bit of influence on the monarchs and demons' will at this final moment to compete with Chu Tai for the ownership of this [law].

This action also invisibly attracted more power from Taiyi Zhenjun to fall.

Chu Tai, who had received the blessing of the True Lord, suppressed the Taoist Wutai. No matter how he struggled, he was unable to break free from Chu Tai, who had received the dual blessings of Jun Mo and Taiyi True Lord. While refining him bit by bit, Chu Tai also took the opportunity to force out the Taoist Xunling, who was integrated into the golden flames, and threw him out of the Yi Guang Realm Abyss together with Fairy Guangze.

The two celestial beings standing in the void looked at Yi Guang Jing Yuan, who had completely turned into a furnace below, and they didn't know what to say for a moment.

The disciples of Jinhua Sect below were about to open their mouths to ask questions when rays of spiritual light fell from all around. Many of them looked at Taoist Xunling and Fairy Guangze, and finally they all stared at Taoist Xunling with a look of pity in their eyes.

But soon, this group of cultivators, together with several other cultivators, looked towards the burning Yi Guang Jing Yuan, and all showed happy expressions.

“I never thought that such a change would occur here. The embryonic forms of the Dao Fruit of the two fourth-grade celestial beings triggered the principles of the two great powers in the Yi Guang Realm Abyss, giving birth to form and substance from the formless and intangible, and returning to the formless and intangible in the instant when the form and substance condensed, repeating this process over and over again, just like refining a treasure…”

"It's fate, it's really fate, we have such an opportunity to obtain a treasure!"

Faced with the joy of many cultivators, Xun Ling and Guangze both tried to stop them, saying that there were two cultivators fighting below. However, these cultivators who had gathered there had already been tempted by the power of the Taoist Wutai, so they were not willing to listen. They scolded Xun Ling and Guangze, asking them not to stop them.
