I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Before time immemorial, the universe was in chaos.

A great god awakened from the chaos, and looking around with his eyes, he saw only nothingness.

He felt that such a world was too monotonous, so he grabbed an axe from the void and split the chaos apart, thus creating the heaven and the earth, and then evolving nature.

The Xuanyuan Axe in Xie Yuan's hand was born when this world was created.

But this should not be the real axe of creation in the hands of the great god, but just a spiritual weapon from heaven in this world, a manifestation of the rules.

Xie Yuan heard the same creation myth in different worlds. With his current knowledge, he understood that it was probably a projection left by a powerful being beyond the universe.

Therefore, this Axe of Creation is not the original one, but it is also the supreme spiritual weapon in this world, and it is inextricably linked to the real divine axe and the real great god.

As soon as Xie Yuan held the Xuanyuan Axe, he realized something.

Why was the first thing he learned was the axe skill, why did he become a woodcutter in the end, why was the most ancient power in the source of Taoism that axe... There must be a reason for it.

The man holding the axe, looking back to the past and present, the final starting point and end point is the axe that created the world.

Xie Yuan held the Xuanyuan Axe, and the black and gold light on the axe gradually lit up, and soon even the way of heaven in the sky could not be ignored.

Those extremely huge eyes looked at Xie Yuan, and seemed to have rare emotions.

Xie Yuan didn't have to wait too long. The huge mouth that occupied half of the sky was still sucking in everything.

The axe in his hand shone brightly, and then he swung it slowly, as if turning the whole world.

"Creation of heaven and earth!"

The entire Tower of Babel suddenly came to a standstill; the clouds, light, grandmasters, and even the way of heaven all came to a standstill at this moment.

Only the figure of Xie Yuan slowly swinging the axe was still moving, and the Xuanyuan Axe was slashing towards the sky from a distance.

The next moment, everything returned to normal.

However, the heaven and earth began to shake violently, and there seemed to be a silent roar, a roar that was even beyond the hearing threshold of the grand master.

The sky was shaking and the giant eye was flickering, sometimes bigger and sometimes smaller, like a giant face constantly swaying, approaching or moving away.

And between the giant eye and the black hole, a crack appeared, and a golden rainstorm began to fall.

The giant eye and the black hole suddenly disappeared, and a beam of light condensed in the air, which was the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao.

At this moment, he covered his head and closed his eyes, his face showing pain; the bridge of his nose had been cut off in the middle of his face, and golden blood was all over his face.

The grand masters were stunned, and then instantly filled with ecstasy!

Xie Yuan seriously injured Tiandao!

At this moment, Tiandao couldn't even control himself. His aura was completely different from before, and his whole body was full of flaws.

One grandmaster couldn't hold back any longer, he shouted, and drew his sword directly, determined to put an end to the Heavenly Dao once and for all.

Xie Yuan, who was recovering his breath, narrowed his eyes and shouted:
"return!"

The Grand Master paused for a moment, but did not stop. There were many who did the same thing, he was just the first one.

The sword light suddenly stopped one foot in front of Tiandao, who was covering his head.

The great master had been alerted, and stabbed with his sword from a distance, but this time he couldn't stab at all, and was shocked to find that he couldn't move either!
Tiandao suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the Grandmaster, instantly bringing him to his front. The Grandmaster struggled desperately, but he could not escape Tiandao's giant hand.

The grand masters nearby were startled and tried to rescue him. Jade Void Master and Divine Monk Zhiling looked solemn and each released their mysterious light to try to pull the grand master back.

However, nothing worked at all. Tiandao blocked all the attacks with his other hand and grabbed the grandmaster's hand and squeezed it hard.

The Grand Master's entire body instantly turned red, his blood vessels throbbed, and his eyeballs were about to pop out, like a water bag that was being squeezed and was about to burst.

However, what was strange was that not a single drop of blood flowed out of him, but suddenly a stream of clear air emerged from the top of his head, as if his true soul was squeezed out by this pinch.

Tiandao opened his mouth and instantly sucked the fresh air into his mouth, and his breath recovered a lot.

He casually threw the grandmaster, whose eyes were dull, aside like a rag doll.

Such a weird scene made all the grandmasters feel a chill in their backs. Seeing Tiandao start to look for the second target, the grandmasters who ran over shouted and retreated in panic.

Tiandao stretched out his long arm and was about to grab the slowest one, when he saw a black and gold axe approaching.

clang--

Xie Yuan's axe was blocked by Tiandao's fist, and his face was solemn.

Tiandao looked at him. Although his voice was not as loud as before, it was still deafening:
“Your axe skills are remarkable.

"But up to this point, you have no chance in the Heavenly Dao realm."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Tower of Babel began to shake.

The grandmasters suddenly felt that their bodies, skills and even their true spirits were vibrating along with the tower, as if they were about to be shaken out.

Xie Yuan's eyes focused, and he held the axe and prepared to use the power of creation again.

Tiandao's golden pupils flickered, and while Xie Yuan was gathering strength, he suddenly reached out and grabbed a grandmaster who was unable to move.

Xie Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he had to withdraw his move to create the world and use his axe to intercept the way of heaven.

It seemed as if Tiandao had anticipated this. His fist drew a circle and then came back, smashing hard at the Xuanyuan Axe!

Xie Yuan's palms shook violently, and half of his body was numb. Tian Dao shook his body and shook his fists, and he was fine.

Xie Yuan frowned as he looked at the great masters around him, whose faces were filled with pain and whose true spirits were about to emerge.

This Tower of Babel is the restaurant of heaven, where everyone is suppressed.

If you are not careful, the Heavenly Dao can directly capture the Grand Master and devour him.

The blow that created the world had already seriously injured the Heavenly Dao. If he could add one more blow, the world would be settled.

However, Xie Yuan wanted to use the Creation of Heaven and Earth. As long as he slightly relaxed his control over Heaven, he could devour a great master and restore his strength;

However, if Xie Yuan did not create the world, it would be difficult for him to pose any real threat to the way of heaven.

He was in a dilemma and had to pick up the axe and slash wildly at Tiandao.

Although Tian Dao was injured at this time, his attack was even more powerful than before, and it had added countless agile changes. Fighting with such a Tian Dao, Xie Yuan felt a huge pressure, and he had to go all out to deal with each move.

Tian Dao's fists were as fast as shadows. While dealing with Xie Yuan, he still had time to speak:
"Do you think that just because you possess the source of the Tao, you can be compared with me? Foolish.

"Everything in this world except the source of the Tao is in my hands. I am the way of heaven, the world, and the master of all things! Even if a little thief like you steals something, you dare not blaspheme!
"Game over!"

He swung his fists and instantly knocked Xie Yuan away.

Xie Yuan somersaulted over and was about to dodge forward when he suddenly felt a large hand attacking him from the side.

There was clearly nothing there, yet the Way of Heaven was still standing there.

His expression froze and he dodged suddenly, then he felt as if countless hands were grabbing him from all around.

No, it wasn't his palm, it was an illusion. Clearly there was an invisible force in the surrounding heaven and earth that restricted his movements. If I had to describe it, it was like countless silk threads entwined around him, and Xie Yuan was like prey in a spider web among the infinite silk threads in the heaven and earth.

This is the power of heaven and earth, the power of rules, and the true power of heaven.

He didn't need a body or hands. Climbing the Tower of Babel and all this were his hobbies after ten thousand years of boredom. If it was the real Heavenly Dao, it wouldn't be so bad, but he wasn't the original Heavenly Dao, and he still lacked the source of Dao.

"Let's see how your Dao source compares to the Heavenly Dao!"

The magnificent sounds overlapped and stirred.

Xie Yuan's face was solemn as he chopped around with his axe again and again.

His axe skills also contain this ultimate truth and have the same power of rules; however, compared with the rules of the Heavenly Dao that control the entire world, they pale in comparison.

To others, he seemed to be chopping at empty space with an axe; but to him, the threads around him were endless.

Xie Yuan could only continue to chop away the surroundings, and then take the opportunity to chop out the axe blade to entangle the Heavenly Dao.

However, Tiandao could handle such attacks with ease. As long as Xie Yuan was a little slower in his entanglement, he would capture a grandmaster, and then take out the true spirit like squeezing out fruit pulp and swallow it.

Just like this, two more grand masters were attacked and could not resist at all in the Tower of Babel.

Everyone's eyes were red with anger as they watched the Heavenly Dao gradually regain its lofty, grand, and unrivaled momentum, and a deep feeling of powerlessness and despair welled up in their hearts.

The sky is high and hard to beat.

If he were allowed to recover a little, Xie Yuan's axe attack would be in vain, and it would be extremely difficult for him to even try to stop him.

His eyes were solemn, and he was about to sacrifice himself, when he suddenly saw that Tiandao had captured two great masters at the same time.

The monk and the Taoist priest were none other than the divine monk Zhiling and the immortal Yuxu.

Even though the Grand Masters were suppressed by the combined power of Heavenly Dao and the Tower of Babel, resistance was also related to strength; those whom Heavenly Dao had previously captured were all those who were at the bottom of the list and on the verge of collapse.

At this time, the two great masters who were the leaders of the group were suddenly taken away at the same time. Xie Yuan, the other great masters, and even the Heavenly Dao seemed to find it unexpected.

Everything happened in a flash. The monk Zhiling and the immortal Yuxu had been rapidly attracted by the Heavenly Dao, and the speed was even accelerating.

There was no emotion in Tiandao's golden eyes. No matter what the two had planned, he could not and would not let go.

The other grand masters felt their bodies lighten, and the suction force surrounding the two masters increased suddenly and soon reached its peak.

They were horrified to see a distorted shadow appear above the heads of Monk Zhiling and True Man Yuxu, and the facial features of that shadow were exactly the same as those of the two masters!
The Heavenly Dao actually sucked out the true spirits of the two masters!
At this moment, the sound of Buddhist chanting suddenly rang out in the world. The wise and spiritual monk had kind eyes, raised his palms and chanted scriptures, and circles of golden light continued to emanate from his body.

The white-haired and youthful Jade Void Immortal smiled:

"After practicing Taoism for a hundred years, I finally realized that this Taoism is not the Taoism. If this is the case, what else can I do if I give up my Taoism? In the end, all warriors in the world will always have a way out."

He waved his whisk, and a clear light surrounded his body, which became increasingly hot.

“I hope that all those who come after me in the world can practice martial arts freely.”

The masters of Buddhism and Taoism chanted in unison, and then displayed their unrivaled skills to the extreme.

boom!
A deafening explosion sounded, accompanied by a bright light that made it impossible to open one's eyes.

"Real person!"

"Grandmaster!"

Cries of surprise rang out one after another, and all the grand masters were speechless as they watched two respected masters sacrifice their lives for the cause.

Xie Yuan's eyes warmed up, he gritted his teeth and swung the axe, feeling the silk threads around him loosen a lot, he couldn't help but increase his strength, and took a posture of creating the world.

Tian Dao was blown back by the desperate attacks of the two masters, and his breath was disordered, but he was still keenly aware of Xie Yuan's movements. He raised his hand instantly, and Xie Yuan suddenly felt that countless "threads" were entangled in the surrounding space again, and the whole world seemed to be against him.

At this moment, a long laugh suddenly sounded:
"What the seniors said is that even if a warrior's fists don't work, there is always one last resort."

Gu Xuantong, the master of Lingsha Island, took a step and rushed towards the Heavenly Dao, his aura becoming hot.

For this group of top martial arts masters, facing the true Heavenly Dao that reaches the pinnacle through martial arts, all means seem too pale.

But as Master Yuxu said, they are not completely helpless after all.

"Xie Yuan, you have to work harder!"

boom!
The loud noise was accompanied by cheerful and expectant exhortations, and the incarnation of Heaven trembled again.

In the chaos, several great masters looked determined, gave up their resistance, and fled forward with the suction of the Heavenly Dao.

The Grand Master Liang Yun, the head of Huaishan Martial Arts Pavilion, who had been taking advantage of his age in front of Xie Yuan, twirled his beard:

"I have lived for 150 years, and many of my grandchildren have died of old age. Why should I spare my old bones? I only hope that all future generations will be like dragons, practice martial arts, and no longer be threatened by the thief Tiandao."

"I hope that all future generations in the world will be like dragons, practice martial arts, and no longer be threatened by the laws of nature."

boom!
Boom boom——

There were loud noises and the earth was shaking.

The aura of Heaven fluctuated wildly, and finally reacted, stopping the suction, turning the suction into repulsion, and pushing these crazy supplements away.

Xie Yuan felt that the power of the rules around him had been greatly weakened. His eyes turned red and he shouted:
"Damn God! Today, I will smash you to pieces!"

He raised his axe and was about to chop, while the surrounding rules and forces were entwined towards him like mad.

Tiandao was surrounded by golden light. After pushing away all the other grandmasters, he fought with Xie Yuan with all his strength, leaving him no time to accumulate strength.

At this juncture, Xie Yuan only needed a gap to make another earth-shattering strike, and Tiandao also knew this, so both sides focused their attention on the Xuanyuan Axe and began to wrestle with this highest level of power.

Xie Yuan felt that there were countless rules of power lingering on the Xuanyuan Axe, hindering him. He gritted his teeth, gathered all his strength, and moved forward inch by inch, while the obstacles grew stronger and stronger, gradually becoming a stalemate.

The Heavenly Dao has accumulated power over thousands of years and possesses the power of the world. However, it has been divided and repeatedly injured, and its aura is no longer as strong as before.

Xie Yuan possesses the source of Taoism, and his Taoism is at the pinnacle of the human world, but his accumulation is too shallow, and he is not strong enough to resist the way of heaven.

It's just that the two sides are gaining while the other is losing, and a delicate balance is formed at this time.

The grandmasters all saw the key point and gritted their teeth to move forward. Xie Yi, Li Xingtuo and others used all their strength, even bleeding from all seven orifices, to slowly approach the Heavenly Dao under the pressure.

"Everyone get out of here!"

A cold voice sounded, followed by a graceful figure standing out from the crowd.

Among the many grand masters who were walking with difficulty, Situ Wan was like gliding on the water, quickly approaching the Heavenly Dao.

"Mother!"

Situ Qin called out mournfully from behind, wanting to stop it, but didn't know how.

Situ Wan's power fluctuated wildly, which unexpectedly matched her aura. She stared at the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, but a voice reached Xie Yuan's ears:

"Take good care of Qin'er."

Xie Yuan watched Situ Wan approach Tiandao, his teeth clenched, blood gushing out of his knuckles, and the Xuanyuan Axe in his hand trembled violently.

Tiandao watched Situ Wan approaching, his eyes gleaming, and suddenly he freed his hand and pointed at her.

Situ Wan's skills were already running at a hundred times the speed, but suddenly they stopped and froze in the air.

She felt that her power was out of her control, strangely slowing down and reversing. Even though she knew that the power of the Heavenly Dao was beyond her comprehension, she was still shocked at this moment.

The strongest and final blow was blocked. Situ Wan stopped when she was still a long distance away from the Heavenly Dao. Her bloodline reversed, and countless wounds shattered her body. She fell down unwillingly.

"mother!"

The wailing sound echoed throughout the Tower of Babel.

After diverting his attention and using some means to deal with Situ Wan, Tiandao withdrew his hand.

He obviously didn't dare to bear the life-threatening blow of such a strong man. At that time, he would not be able to suppress Xie Yuan, and would have to face the world-shaking and the desperate strength of the grandmaster. With both of these two attacks, he would be doomed.

Tian Dao, who used mysterious means, still suppressed Xie Yuan, and now he freed up his hands. After eliminating the threat, he was ready to deal with Xie Yuan with all his strength, but suddenly he felt a chill.

This was the second time today that he felt the chill that threatened the way of heaven.

Tiandao suddenly discovered that Xie Yuan, who should have been restricted by the rules from swinging the axe, had his eyes wide open and had begun waving his hands.

Xie Yuan had long been like a volcano that had been suppressed to the extreme, and Situ Wan's sacrifice and Situ Qin's sadness were the final sparks that ignited his fire.

He broke through the suppression of all rules and forces, and swung his axe forward enough to break the heaven and earth. Endless black-gold light enveloped the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao.

The world fell into silence, and then began to collapse.

Everyone felt that the world was tilted and their vision began to change. Sometimes it was still rolling clouds and mist, and sometimes it was a sky filled with black smoke and fire.

The grand masters then discovered that the Tower of Babel was beginning to collapse!

Buzz-buzz-

Amidst a loud buzzing sound that shook the entire world, the Tower of Babel was chopped down by a single axe!
Everyone left the tower and returned to the world. Even the grandmaster felt his blood boiling and his internal organs shaking in the aftermath, and he could not tell the difference between north and south.

Xie Yuan was suspended in the air with the axe in his hand, his arms trembling slightly, but his eyes were as fiery as he stared at the tall figure in the sky opposite him.

Tiandao was covered in golden mist, looking extremely sacred.

However, when looking closely, I found that it was the blood that was constantly spreading from his body.

Tiandao can no longer stop his own bleeding.

He stood in the mist, his voice no longer loud and clear, but a little hoarse:
"I underestimated you. I didn't expect that you have such control over the source of Dao. Even the ignorant and ignorant Heaven cannot use it in this way.

"But you shouldn't have destroyed the Tower of Babel..." Xie Yuan frowned when he heard Tiandao say this.

Then he felt countless threads, with billions of rules, emanating from Tiandao...

No, it’s not that those rules come from the way of heaven, but that everything starts and ends with him!
Tiandao connects all things, he is this world.

Xie Yuan followed the connections and his eyes suddenly widened.

The power of billions of lives is rising along this mysterious passage and converging on the Heavenly Dao.

The breath of heaven is gradually recovering, but billions of lives and even the entire world are dying.

Tiandao opened his mouth slowly, and his voice gradually regained its strength:

"The tower is a step to heaven, a place of heaven, and a prison of rules. If you destroy the tower, I will suffer a great loss, but I will no longer be restricted by these rules, and I can finally directly influence the world.

"Now, how are you going to face me? I am the sky, I am the earth, I am God, I am the master of this world! Only God can break the sky, and only God can deal with God! Hahaha——"

For the first time, he showed a lively expression, as if the war god who once looked down upon the world had temporarily awakened, and his rumbling laughter resounded throughout the world just like his tyranny.

Xie Yuan's face darkened, and he mustered up his remaining strength to raise the axe.

However, Tiandao paused in laughter, shook his arms, and countless rules and connections shook, as if he was holding a chain in his hand:
"Have you thought it through?"

Xie Yuan stopped immediately.

Now the Heavenly Dao is directly connected to all things, so Xie Yuan can indeed kill him, but at the same time, billions of lives and even the entire world will have only one end.

However, if Xie Yuan did not move, this world would slowly die, while the Heavenly Dao would gradually recover until it reached its peak. At that time, no one would be able to stop him, and he could even use the ruins of the world to escape from the shackles and use it as a springboard to the adjacent world that Xie Yuan did not want him to set foot in anyway.

Xie Yuan was caught in the biggest dilemma in the world, with two worlds at the two ends of the scale.

Reason told him that he should strike with the axe immediately, however, one blow would kill billions of lives, even Xie Yuan now could not make up his mind.

"The destruction of this world is doomed! We must kill this evil God as soon as possible, or else there will be more trouble!"

“No, we can’t be impatient. This is a living world, and I came here to save it. There is still a way, there is still a chance…”

"But what else can we do? He is the world, and billions of lives are him. He is absorbing nutrients from the world, and everyone will die sooner or later. Rather than being soft-hearted and letting the world feed him to death and then letting him recover, it is better to end it all now! I didn't kill anyone, I just slightly accelerated the fate that was bound to come sooner or later... What's the difference between this and Yu Jing?"

Xie Yuan's thoughts fell into confusion for a moment. If the whole world was tied to the rails, this trolley problem would be too difficult.

In the split second of hesitation, the Heavenly Dao had recovered visibly, and the golden clouds around him had transformed into a golden halo symbolizing supreme power.

Xie Yuan's forehead was already covered with sweat, even when he had just used the Creation of the World.

While struggling, a fragrant breeze suddenly approached.

Xie Yuan turned his head and saw the beautiful face, it was Situ Qin.

But Situ Qin's expression made him feel a little strange.

Her tone was a little vague:
"Do you know what the purpose of the Kitchen Cult was?"

Without waiting for Xie Yuan to answer, she said to herself:

"Remove the shadows of heaven and earth, and bring light to the world. Light the stove of all things, and set the sky on fire.

“The purpose of the Kitchen God Cult is to use all things as firewood to burn the heavens.

“The Kitchen God Cult is not a demonic cult, which is why I am willing to become a saint and become this…fire seed.

"Xie Yuan, I am very happy to have known you for my whole life."

Xie Yuan's eyes were bloodshot, both his own and the reflection of the blazing flames rising from Situ Qin's feet.

He stretched out his hand suddenly, but the rising flames blocked him out.

Situ Qin moved lightly in the void with her lotus steps, and wherever she went, the thread connecting the Heavenly Dao and all things would be severed.

The raging flames spread like a spider web throughout the world following the rules of heaven, and the flames under Situ Qin's feet also rose quickly and reached her calves.

The swirling tongues of flame continued to rise, making her stunning face vaguely visible.

Xie Yuan's eyes were red as he looked at the face with a beautiful smile in the flames. He gritted his teeth and put his hand into the fire regardless.

The flames of heaven were enough to ignite him, but he couldn't care less.

But before he could touch Situ Qin, a hand reached in faster than his and pulled Situ Qin out.

"When did I pass on the title of Saint to you?"

A cold yet gentle voice sounded.

Situ Qin was stuffed into Xie Yuan's arms with a bewildered look on her face, and then with a swish, her tall and graceful figure, covered in blood, dived into the center of the burning flames.

The flames were blazing.

Standing in the flames, Situ Wan looked gentle and smiled for the first time:
"Silly child, your mother is still alive, so it's not your turn yet."

"mother!"

Situ Qin reacted and screamed.

Situ Wan stretched out her hand, as if caressing her daughter's face through the flames:

"You've suffered so much these years. It's all your mother's fault. But don't be sad for me. I'm going to meet your father. This is the best outcome..."

Her hand was halfway extended when it turned into nothingness. Just like a beautiful phantom in the flames, Situ Wan merged into the Burning Sky Flame and disappeared completely.

The flames rose into the sky, burning the entire sky and.

Unlike Situ Qin, Situ Wan doesn't care about billions of lives.

So not only the silk threads, but everything in the sky was ignited. The flames burned the entire sky and quickly extended to all things on the ground, just like the ultimate goal of the Kitchen God Cult.

The raging fire in the sky is a reflection of the ignited rules, which naturally has a reverse impact on the way of heaven.

Xie Yuan looked at the world on fire with a complicated expression. The feeling of regaining what he had lost made him hold Situ Qin tightly and not want to let go, but looking at the Heavenly Dao that was on fire all over, he still had things to do.

If God is given time, this fire will eventually be extinguished.

But Xie Yuan naturally wouldn't.

He slowly raised the axe.

Tiandao looked at Xie Yuan and put down his struggling hands.

He looked calm and asked quietly:

"Do you know what you're doing?"

He was answered by the raised axe.

Tian Dao shook his head:
"You have no idea how much I have sacrificed, or what you will face. Without my protection, this world would have fallen into darkness long ago—"

Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by the axe light that illuminated the entire world and even extinguished half of the flames.

Tiandao's body turned into pure light and slowly dissipated.

In the afterglow, Tian Dao showed reluctance and resentment, and finally turned into indifference:
"You are done. You will be consumed by regret."

The former God of War eventually lost all his marks and merged into this ball of light.

The light symbolizing the way of heaven floated quietly for a moment, and then sensed the power of the source of Tao in Xie Yuan's body and automatically flew towards him.

After absorbing the rules of Heavenly Dao, Xie Yuan will become the true and complete Heavenly Dao of this world.

But this takes time, and the world is already on fire.

The sky was like a spider web that was lit in the middle, and the flames spread downwards along the spider silk, quickly approaching the billions of creatures on the ground.

It seemed that heaven and earth were about to burn together, and all things would turn to ashes.

Suddenly, a golden light covering the entire world lit up, protecting all living beings.

Xie Yuan lowered his head and looked at the fair and handsome monk in the golden light.

Above the peak.

Huijue clasped his hands together, his face showing no sadness or joy, only peace.

Zhang Jun, who was standing next to him, had red eyes with tears still on his face, and he clenched his fists tightly.

He choked and asked:
"Have you considered?"

"Have you considered?"

A similar voice asked in Huijue’s mind.

Huijue smiled and spread his palm, revealing a colorful glazed pagoda:
"I took your Buddha's kingdom just for today. Now, wherever the sky shines, it is covered by the Buddha's teachings. Isn't that what the great Arhat wished for?"

"I don't want such a Buddhist kingdom. Little monk, think it over. With your wisdom and my guidance, it will be a natural thing for you to achieve the status of a bodhisattva or even a Buddha, let alone an arhat. The world is hard to cross, so the only way is to illuminate yourself and shine the light on the ten directions of the world. Don't make a mistake."

Huijue chanted the Buddha's name with a calm expression:
“This is the Hinayana of Buddhism. Even after thousands and tens of thousands of years, you are still only an arhat because of this.

"Saving oneself is saving oneself, saving others is saving others. Saving ten, a hundred, or even a hundred million people is the same. What's the difficulty? If the Dharma cannot save the whole world, how can it illuminate the ten directions? This is not self-deception, but self-saving! All living beings are suffering in front of me. Even if I have exhausted my affinity with the Buddha and entered the cycle of reincarnation again, I am willing to do so. You must know -

"If I don't go to hell, who will?"

"If I don't go to hell, who will?"

The voice in Huijue's mind muttered to himself, suddenly became happy, and then became calm.

A tall and strong monk appeared beside him, clasped his hands together and bowed his head slightly:

"Amitabha, I am grateful for your teaching."

He turned to the foot of the peak, looked at all living beings in the world, put his hands together, and lotus flowers appeared under his feet, and he chanted in Sanskrit:

"I will not become a Buddha until I have saved the whole world."

"I will not become a Buddha until I have saved the whole world."

Huijue and the phantom of the Arhat merged into one and sang in unison.

The pagoda shines brightly, and the golden light protects all living beings, blocking the rain of fire from the sky, and is unbreakable.

Huijue's body kept shaking, and his figure became more and more illusory, yet also taller, gradually taller than the mountains and higher than the clouds.

The young monk with his hands clasped together is now the Buddha standing between heaven and earth.

Xie Yuan looked at Huijue, who was sitting with his hands folded and eyes closed with a calm expression, and showed a bit of sadness. He put his palms together and bowed slightly to him.

Suddenly, the huge shadow quietly opened one eye, blinked, and revealed a playful look:

"Thank you, benefactor. Why do you have to act like a child? You have become the Way of Heaven, I have become the Buddha, the Taoist priest has become a hero, and we all have a bright future. Haha, if it weren't for the fact that monks can't drink, it would be a big deal!"

Xie Yuan opened his mouth, but at this moment he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Zhang Junyi was feeling sad when he heard a gentle voice coming from the sky:

"Taoist, stop crying. We agreed to help the weak and fight against the strong in the human world, and not go to heaven. Heaven is left to you, the donor. Even if you become a great master and enter the Tower of Babel, you can't save our master, nor can you save me.

"You have helped many people over the years. The world needs you in the past, today, and in the future. The longer you live, the better. You are the one who will rebuild the world. As for me, I was born for this day. Now that I have achieved my wish, why are you so sad?"

Zhang Junyi stopped crying and looked up, but Huijue was no longer there.

There was only a golden light in the sky, and the dazzling sun after the rain of fire was extinguished and the dark clouds dispersed.

……

Xie Yuan finally absorbed all the power of Heaven.

The rules of heaven and the power of the core source of the Tao have been reunited after thousands of years.

At this moment, Xie Yuan is the Heavenly Dao of this world, a conscious and complete Heavenly Dao, and the most powerful creature in the history of this world.

Although he was born a mortal, after integrating the complete power of the Heavenly Dao, Xie Yuan's expression became lofty and indifferent, and his emotions seemed to fade away...

"what are you thinking about?"

A pleasant voice sounded in my ears.

Xie Yuan quickly came back to his senses, looking at Situ Qin in his arms, seeing her tired yet relieved expression, feeling her warmth and fragrance filling his arms.

There are still so many sacrifices, so much laughter and sorrow, so many memories and pasts, he thought to himself:

"Fuck the gods..."

He is the way of heaven, and he will always be that mortal.

……

Earth.

Chun Jiang Restaurant.

Xie Yuan sat in the private room, Situ Qin sat next to him, and Xie Lingyun sat on the other side, holding Xie Jungui and looking around curiously.

Boss Wu was serving dishes and pouring wine while rubbing his hands:
"Does it still taste good?"

Xie Yuan said politely:
"Your craftsmanship is beyond words."

He put down his chopsticks and sighed:
"However, now that I can see outside the world, I realize that the starry sky is vast, far more than just the two adjacent sides. Those worlds are different from each other, and many of the rulers are both very powerful and have no good intentions - perhaps good intentions do not exist in the concepts of those races."

"Are you worried?"

Boss Wu said with a smile.

Xie Yuan nodded:

"nature."

Boss Wu laughed, raised his glass and sang:
"Friends come and there is good wine——

"Here comes the jackal with a shotgun!"

He said in a serious tone:
"The axe skills you have mastered have the rhythm of the God of Creation, and are of extremely high standard. Few people have your level of understanding. If you study them more, you will have no problem protecting yourself. The end is also the starting point, and you still have a long way to go."

"So...thank you for your advice."

Xie Yuan bowed slightly and toasted Boss Wu.

At this moment, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open.

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Boss Wu, who was eating with a smile on his face.

He didn't sense anything, but this was not his territory after all.

It was Xie Guoliang and Wang Yafang who came in. They were naturally happy to see their son:
"Oh! You've been away on business for so long, and you're finally back. Come, let me introduce you to a girl. You're not a kid anymore, ahem... This is Miss Mu, our new neighbor. Her parents are both university professors, and she just returned from studying abroad, so she has a high level of education..."

Xie Guoliang talked nonstop, his face flushed. As a teacher, when he met such a highly educated young girl, he naturally couldn't wait to introduce her to his son.

It was just that Wang Yafang poked him with her elbow a few times, but he didn't feel it. He finally staggered after being pushed and realized:

"...Xie Yuan, do you still have friends today?"

Xie Guoliang's face was a little stiff. He looked at Situ Qin and Xie Lingyun, who were equally beautiful, and even a chubby little kid who seemed very friendly to him. He was confused and felt that something was wrong.

It seems like something bad has happened.

However, Xie Yuan did not move, as if he did not recognize his own parents at all, his eyes fixed on the girl behind them.

Situ Qin's eyes widened with a look of great surprise; Xie Lingyun's mouth opened into a circle, and her hands loosened unconsciously, dropping Xie Jungui to the ground with a plop.

The child was raised with great talent and when he fell down he made a thud and made a hole in the floor.

He scratched his head, not feeling any pain at all. He just looked at his aunt, then his mother, and then his stepfather in confusion. Finally, he followed their gaze to look at the strange woman. He felt an inexplicable sense of closeness and admiration from the bottom of his heart.

The elegant woman in a white dress gathered her hair and smiled:

"I told you, we'll get together again."
