The Great Way to Truth, Starting from Jiazi Laodao

Chapter 250 Auspicious Cloud Dao Image, Chronicle of the Great Battle of the Dao Lords

On the nine-zhang-high platform, the Master of the Way of Peace glanced at Xuanming indifferently and explained:

"If you achieve great power before Bai Yujing is born, I will tell you what you want to know, and I will tell you everything I know."

If not, the Taiping Sect's several smaller worlds will merge into Fuyun Mountain, and I will leave a seal within them.

Only the most powerful can lift the seal.

Xuanming was both surprised and serious.

The seriousness stems from the fact that the leader of the Way of Peace is taking this matter so seriously, suggesting that his plan must be earth-shattering, something that only a great being can know and participate in.

The surprise stemmed from the fact that he was protecting not only this small world, but also several smaller worlds.

Xuanming is no longer the ignorant fool he once was.

I know a lot about great beings. I know that a small world does not necessarily represent a great being, but a great being can certainly represent a small world.

Whether it's a small world or a great power, it's like finding a needle in a haystack—as difficult as climbing to heaven.

However, the Taiping Sect possessed several smaller worlds, and its profound foundation was unimaginable.

There might be other powerful beings among them.

Taking a deep breath and trying to calm himself, Xuanming continued to ask, "Why did you determine that the Great Immortal of the Central Yellow Pole and Yellow Horn is Huang Tian?"

The leader of the Taiping Dao paused slightly, his eyes filled with thoughts, his expression becoming meaningful as he fell into memories.

After a moment, he said:
"When I first became a great power, I entered the depths of the Nanhua Secret Realm and saw the mark left by the Daoist. With this, I traveled through time and space and glimpsed a corner of the future. The heavens wept blood, looked down on all living beings, and sent down a world-destroying calamity. A yellow light covered the heavens and the earth and bore the calamity."

Though it was a terrified glance, and I suffered the backlash, that scene is forever etched in my memory, never to be forgotten. This is the origin of the saying, "The Blue Heaven shall die, and the Yellow Heaven shall rise."

After glancing at Xuanming, the Master of Taiping Dao said, "I have calculated the time. When you condensed the divine body of the Central Yellow Pole Yellow Horn Great Immortal, it was precisely the time when I felt this."

Huangjiao is Huangtian, and this deity will protect all living beings and save humanity from future catastrophes.

The waves of Xuanming Heart Lake surged.

The answer was unexpected.

The leader of the Way of Peace actually glimpsed a corner of the future!
But the next moment, he was horrified.

Heaven weeps blood, a catastrophe ravages the world!
No wonder the Lord of the Peaceful Way asked him to look at the sky.

I'm only looking at the present.

The leader of the Way of Peace, however, looked to the future.

"So, senior has been preparing to resist the cataclysmic disaster all along?"

Xuanming pressed for an answer.

The Master of Taiping Dao laughed and said, "Yes and no. There are some things you will understand when you become a great master."

"I am revealing some information to you in the hope that you will strive for excellence; perhaps you will be the key to warding off a great calamity in the future."

Xuanming remained silent upon hearing this.

Seeing this, the leader of the Way of Peace said nonchalantly:

"Don't worry too much. I just want to put some pressure on you. The sky won't collapse anytime soon, and even if it does, there are tall people to hold it up."

Throughout the ages, countless talented individuals have emerged from this world. There are many who are stronger than me, and even more ancient predecessors guard these four celestial regions.

The Three Buddhas of Buddhism, the Four Celestial Masters of Taoism, the Two Sub-Sages of Confucianism, and the Guardians of the Three Great Divine Dynasties...

None of them are weaker than me.

Looking outside the small world, the Master of Taiping Dao said, "If you believe in me, you can stay in this small world for three years. You can read any of the Taiping Dao's million scriptures. I will give you a lecture for half a month every year. If you do not wish to do so, you can take these books with you. This is my way of showing my appreciation and also one of my rewards to you."

Xuanming remained silent upon hearing this.

After drinking half a cup of tea, he bowed respectfully.

"This junior will have the audacity to trouble you, senior."

The leader of the Way of Peace laughed heartily.

With a flick of his sleeve, Xuanming vanished instantly, reappearing in a palace filled with ancient books.

The voice of the Taiping Dao Master rang in my ears:

"This place is the Daohai Palace, which houses a million books of the Taiping Sect. You will cultivate here in the future."

If you have any questions, you can ask the drunken old man who guards this place. He is my disciple and has been fortunate enough to enter the threshold of a great master; he should be able to help you.

Xuanming bowed to the void in gratitude, then gazed at the vast sea of ​​books with shining eyes.

---

On the nine-zhang-high platform, the leader of the Taiping Dao looked up at the sky and smiled mockingly.

"Master, please wait a little longer."

Your disciple will soon be able to finish what you haven't done.

"This celestial body has been too high and mighty for too long; it's time for a change."

The next moment, his expression changed.

His figure vanished suddenly, and when he reappeared, he was outside the small world, high in the sky, his Taoist robe fluttering in the wind.

The Master of the Way of Peace looked calmly at the blind old beggar and the rat-carrying old half-immortal who had come together.

"May I ask what brings you two seniors here today?"

Ji Yuan didn't say anything.

The old fortune teller can still speak.

"Taiping, what is your purpose in detaining this boy?"

The leader of the Taiping Dao raised an eyebrow slightly and said calmly, "I have my own reasons, and there's no need for you two seniors to worry about them."

With a cold snort, Zhong Neng, the Half-Immortal, said:
"This child is of great importance to us. Taiping should let him go as soon as possible, lest we jeopardize our important mission."

Taiping glanced at the two of them and said sarcastically, "What if I say no?"

Black and white chess pieces flew through the air.

Space shifted, laws changed, and the Lord of Taiping Dao instantly landed on a chessboard.

Without saying a word, Ji Yuan took action immediately.

After sending the Taiping Dao Master onto the chessboard, he said, "Taiping, this old beggar advises you to be sensible and not to refuse a toast only to suffer the consequences."

A chuckle rang out, and the Master of Taiping Dao calmly said, "Senior, do you really think this Qiankun Chessboard can trap me?"

Raising his hand, the Master of Taiping summoned the Nine-Section Staff. He swung it forcefully, and nine colors shone brightly. Nine kinds of laws surged forth, shattering one chess piece after another and breaking one Tai Chi after another.

Whether it's Yin and Yang or the Four Symbols.

Nothing could stop its path.

Even though Ji Yuan used chess to form an array, he only managed to hold them off for half an hour. Three flowers appeared above the Taiping Sect Leader's head, and five elements swirled in his chest, intertwining to form a thousand acres of auspicious cloud formations.

Nine colors return to one, and the laws return to their origin.

Everything was integrated into the laws of the earth.

A yellow sky appeared within the Qiankun Chessboard, its laws reversed, yin and yang in disarray, and he forcefully broke through the formation.

"Qingyun Daoxiang, the body of a Dao Venerable, I never imagined you had already broken through and reached this point."

Ji Yuan sighed and put away the Qiankun Chessboard.

The half-immortal Zhong Neng still advised, "Xuanming's matter is of great importance. Now that you have broken through to the next realm, you should be more aware of the will of Heaven and the feelings of humanity. Think of all the people under Heaven and let Xuanming leave as soon as possible. Don't be so stubborn."

The Master of Taiping Dao said, “I have my own plans. Rest assured, I will not harm him. On the contrary, I will give him guidance.”

He needs to hone his skills in Taipingjiao for three years. After three years, I will keep my promise and let him go.

Half-Immortal Zhong Neng was about to say something more, but Ji Yuan stopped him: "In that case, I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist."

The leader of the Way of Peace waved his hand dismissively: "It's alright. I only helped him because I think highly of him."

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Neng exclaimed with delight, "Could it be you?!"

With a cold snort, the Master of the Way of Peace said in a chilling tone, "Don't think of me as as despicable as you."

Zhong Neng was furious.

The rat demon on his shoulder emitted a red light.

Ji Yuan pulled her back again.

"Since Xuanming is fine, let's leave it at that and not cause any more trouble."

Zhong Neng listened to the advice and calmed down.

Before leaving, he gave a warning with an unfriendly look:

"I hope you will not speak nonsense, otherwise, I will not let your Taiping Sect off the hook."

His response was a disdainful sneer from the leader of the Taiping Dao.
