People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 1040 Who is the Dao Venerable?
Especially in places like the Primordial World, the battles at the lower levels don't really have much impact on the real battle. What truly determines victory or defeat are the Ones, the Sages, and the Dao Venerables!

According to the legends of this era, the Dao Venerable attained enlightenment before the creation of dimensions. He was the one who attained enlightenment in the previous dimension. If the power of a dimension is ten, the Dao Venerable controls nine, while the other saints share the remaining one.

It is even said that the Dao Venerable's authority should originally have been ten, making him a true dimensional powerhouse. The reason he dispersed his authority was to reduce and seek emptiness, thus transcending dimensions.

As time passes and dimensions evolve, until the end of everything, the authority of the Dao Venerable will naturally return to zero, and the authority of all the saints will naturally reach the complete ten.

However, that must be something that happens in the very distant future.

Because our current dimension is still very young, even though the primordial era has existed for an almost immeasurable amount of time, for many life forms, it represents a truly enormous and incalculable number.

However, in terms of dimensions, it is still in its infancy; its entire existence has not even reached one ten-thousandth of its full potential.

For the next five days, Li Qi and the Taoist Kongwu traveled a considerable distance. Li Qi also made several moves, killing several formless demon puppets and suppressing their marks.

The main battlefield is not in this era; the demonic puppets appearing on the primordial land now are just some that slipped through the net.

The timeline of the entire world continues to jump, but neither Li Qi nor the Void Taoist is affected.

Li Qi was unaffected because his origins were not here, while Kong Wu Dao Ren was protected by the great sect's fortune.

The Taoist Kongwu was already used to this kind of leaping phenomenon.

Five days later, Li Qi and the Taoist Kongwu arrived at a large city called Tianguan. In the city, Li Qi directly exchanged several marks for battle merits and redeemed a Taoist scripture.

This dream world is very strange. If he tries to take some things directly, he will only find emptiness. But if he exchanges them for something of equal value, they will reveal their true substance.

As for this Dao Scripture, it is very famous in the prehistoric world, with countless versions. The original version of the Dao Scripture refers to the earliest version of the Dao Scripture, which was created by the Dao Venerable.

The original Taoist scriptures consisted of only three thousand characters. Although each character contained a great deal of information, the content was simple and unadorned, merely expounding some of the most basic and unadorned principles of heaven and earth.

"In the beginning of time, there were no so-called shackles on life, so all kinds of life forms evolved freely and embarked on all sorts of strange evolutionary paths."

"This is the time with the highest probability, but also the most unstable time. Ninety-nine percent of the directions lead to dead ends, and only a lucky few will always stay on the relatively correct evolutionary path."

"It wasn't until the emergence of the Daoist scriptures that the anchoring and directional optimization of the life information state were achieved."

"However, this kind of orientation, which is very stable, comprehensive and vast, also means that it lacks distinctive features."

"Therefore, many powerful life forms combined the Daoist scriptures with their own evolutionary paths to create all sorts of strange Daoist scriptures, or rather, evolutionary chapters, in order to evolve various physiques and different races."

"In order to ensure their own uniqueness, many races locked themselves in the evolutionary process to prevent their power from being stolen by other races. This is how the original shackles of life came about."

Li Qi was studying Taoist scriptures in the city, seemingly lost in thought and gaining some insight.

This continued for another four days. During these four days, Li Qi was very calm, while the Void Daoist wandered around. There were many disciples of the nine major sects in the city, and outside the city was a battlefield with a peculiar rift.

What Li Qi and the Void Taoist encountered before were some demonic puppets that had escaped from this rift by chance.

In a short time, Li Qi also got to know some disciples of the nine major sects. Although Kong Wu Dao Ren was already a disciple of hundreds of thousands of generations, in fact, his seniority in the major sects was not low.

The vast expanse of time is too long; tens of thousands is just a very small number.

In the great religions, however, achieving immortality is just the beginning.

Once immortality is achieved, one's generation advances by leaps and bounds, potentially reaching within a hundred generations. However, even among a hundred thousand immortals, perhaps only one can achieve unification of parallel universes.

Even among ten thousand powerful beings who have achieved the unification of parallel universes, perhaps only one can prove eternity.

Some things can't be achieved simply by waiting in the long run; the longer you wait, the further you get from that level.

This is still a good place for cultivation in the primordial world.

Because of the Taoist Kongwu, Li Qi also got to know several disciples of the Nine Great Sects.

A courtyard, an old tree, a stone table, a few cups of tea, and a few people.

This is a gathering organized by the Taoist Kongwu.

Li Qi listened to the discussions of several people, but after discarding the empty rhetoric, he didn't gain much. At the same time, Li Qi also had a feeling that this great dream was about to end.

If he really wanted to acquire more knowledge, he could have entered the rift and killed demons to gain merit.

At this special juncture, battle merits can be exchanged for anything, even the core inheritances of various sects.

As for the leakage of the transmission, the core transmission itself is a token of joining the religion; once you learn it, you become one of us.

As for dual cultivation, the lineage of sages possesses a powerful uniqueness. You can use your own wisdom to break free from it, but dual cultivation is impossible unless you are a higher-dimensional powerhouse.

However, those who are powerful in a particular dimension do not need to learn the teachings of sages.

The so-called orthodox tradition of sages is also below and within dimensions.

However, Li Qi knew the strangeness of this place, and that knowledge had its weight. Gaining too much here might not be a good thing, but rather a great calamity.

The harder you work, the more greedy you become, the more dangerous it is.

Therefore, he simply changed the Taoist scriptures.

The immortal used such a mysterious method, definitely to kill him, not to offer him an opportunity.

But what he experienced was not dangerous at all; clearly, something unexpected had happened.

In his time, he acted on a whim as a Daoist master and thus acquired the title of Daoist master. He did not believe this was merely a coincidence.

It's definitely some kind of destiny.

It's not necessarily true that he is the Dao Venerable, but he is not the Dao Venerable.

With the help of the panel, one day he might be able to directly reach the time when the dimension reopens, or even before it reopens, and write history.

Of course, in Li Qi's view, it doesn't matter whether it is true or not; what he wants to do is to see more things clearly.

In the courtyard, several young prodigies from the nine major sects talked about the future, dreaming of achieving immortality, or even becoming the only one in Nirvana, and possessing truly vast supernatural powers.

Immortality is difficult to attain; perhaps only one or two people achieve it in a lifetime, and becoming the only immortal is almost a dead end. Many who aspire to immortality attempt it in their lifetime, only to have their wisdom and knowledge completely consumed in the end. If they are favored and blessed by a sage, they may have a chance to start over. Otherwise, they will simply transform into immortal innate spiritual treasures.
