He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

Prolonged periods of quiet meditation can bring a person's mind to a state of profound emptiness, and Zhou Qing is currently in such a state.

Compared to the previous carnage of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, now...

Zhou Qing is calming his mind and experiencing a sense of nature, where heaven and earth are born for him and all things are one.

Sever the Dao!

If he wanted, he could step in at any time. He had already stepped in more than halfway eight months ago. At that time, he was already sitting on the high throne of myriad paths, looking down on all paths, and was the only one who was supreme.

But he always knew that it was not the true path in his heart. Long ago, starting from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, he had been thinking about the path of severing the Dao, constantly questioning his heart, asking the Dao, questioning the eternity of heaven and earth, and finally had a vague idea.

But only when he truly faced this challenge did he realize that he had been too naive, and that it was far too difficult to successfully achieve the path he envisioned.

Even now, he is still unable to transform!

boom!

In an instant, he seemed to ascend to heaven, breaking free from all worldly constraints. Every pore on his body opened up, as if he were receiving a divine baptism.

He advanced to the realm of divine restriction, breaking free from all constraints!

This was the umpteenth time he had entered the state of divine restriction. He had experienced it countless times. In this state, his personal qualities were comprehensively enhanced, and even his enlightenment was ten times more effective. He could experience that profound and mysterious sense of the Dao even more than usual.

However, this time was different. It seemed that his accumulated knowledge was too profound. After entering the Divine Forbidden Zone, he instantly fell into a deep state of enlightenment!

Enlightenment can be divided into superficial enlightenment and deep enlightenment. Most people in the world talk about enlightenment as superficial enlightenment, which refers to a period of time in which one's mind is sublimated, resulting in a sudden increase in one's sense of the Tao, and one enters a state where it is easier to understand the Tao than usual.

Compared to shallow enlightenment, deep enlightenment enhances one's sense of the Tao by tens or even hundreds of times. However, this also leads to complete ignorance of the outside world. Unlike shallow enlightenment, which is easily awakened by a little stimulation, deep enlightenment is difficult to awaken.

Zhou Qing felt as if he had entered a sea of ​​the origin of the Dao. He wandered in it, forgetting where he was, with only the infinite Dao in his heart.

Outside, his body unconsciously stood up and performed a secret technique.

With one thought, the flowers bloom and rule the world!

Above the entire Valley of Tang, endless rain of flowers danced, each petal shimmering, each one a flower of enlightenment, with streaks of light from the Great Dao cascading down like thousands of waterfalls.

A gentle breeze blew, and in an instant, every petal transformed into Zhou Qing, and thousands upon thousands of other figures.

He created thousands upon thousands of avatars, not for attacking, but to evolve various secret techniques.

Some are unleashing the holy art of battle, evolving into thousands of moves and unleashing the most fundamental mysteries, fighting against heaven and earth, and defying all creation.

Some are performing the Immortal Tribulation Transcending Melody, comprehending the Great Dao of all things striving to transcend, seeing through the essence of the world, and hearing the secrets of the world's true nature.

Some were practicing the secrets of the word "行" (xing), experiencing a sense of boundless freedom and detachment, as if they could go anywhere in the vast universe.

The members of the Sun God Cult all put down their work, their expressions dazed, staring intently at the figure in the sky, completely absorbed in enlightenment.

"What is this? It has affected the laws of this world?" Dao Qingling's expression changed as she sensed this mystery and quickly entered the Enlightenment Realm.

Xiaoyu and Yi Qingwu were no exception; like the others in the Sun God Cult, they all fell into a state of enlightenment.

Meanwhile, Tanggu became increasingly mysterious, as if it had been isolated from the outside world, becoming an independent little world, and undergoing drastic changes.

The Dao descended upon heaven and earth, and primordial energy surged forth, as if a great transformation was about to occur ahead of schedule, restoring the most prosperous cultivation land.

Chapter 181 Different Daoist Thoughts

Above Tang Valley, petals fell from the sky, each one sparkling. As far as the eye could see, Zhou Qing's figure was everywhere.

The Daoist voice boomed, the dragon vein burst forth, the mist flowed, the essence flowed like a small river, and various kinds of radiance flowed down, making it many times stronger than before.

boom!

In an instant, the sky exploded, and a point in the void seemed to burst forth with endless light and fire, burning fiercely and radiating the most dazzling light.

This is an avatar of Zhou Qing performing the Sun Emperor Fist. This figure ignores everything else, focusing only on this one move, transcending self and other, earnestly comprehending the Dao meaning within this move.

In another part of the sky, a figure was casting the Chaotic Ancient Sacred Technique, an extremely terrifying divine art that divided the surrounding spacetime into many pieces, each with its own discontinuous timeline.

Other figures, their bodies hazy, moved their hands, revealing intricate and profound Daoist patterns. They appeared incredibly lofty and distant, uttering nine ancient characters in succession, causing the void to collapse. As if the world had just begun to open, their power surged and suffocated people.

The entire Valley of Tang was in utter chaos, with countless divine spells blooming in the air. If it weren't for the golden leaves of the Fusang Divine Tree swaying and flowing with a vast ocean of solar holy power to protect the Valley of Tang, it might have already been torn to pieces.

Originally, under the restrictions of the Eight Forbidden Rules, the human body's maximum potential could not be released. The body would forcibly restrict Zhou Qing's power, weakening the power of the One Thought Flower.

But now that the divine restriction has been lifted, Zhou Qing is like a wild horse that has broken free of its reins. His entire body is filled with powerful magic, and countless Dao patterns appear in the sky. Dozens of divine chains of order shoot out, as if a group of demons are dancing wildly.

No one knows how strong Zhou Qing is now; all that is known is his aura, which is constantly rising, and he exudes a sacred and pure aura!

The secret techniques of the character "皆" (Jie), including the corresponding secret techniques in the Undying Heavenly Art, were also used.

A figure continuously activated the "All" secret technique, and with a loud bang, the sky collapsed. This scene was created with just a simple gesture.

This is the secret technique created by the Emperor, representing the Dao intent of being invincible and sweeping across the world. All secret techniques are for self-strengthening and constantly increasing one's combat power.

Another figure flashed with divine light, and a row of Zhou Qing appeared, making a total of nine more people!

However, these nine figures were unstable, disappearing in an instant. This was a secret technique that had not been fully developed, and it did not mean that one person actually transformed into ten people; otherwise, it would have been worthy of being called a celestial technique!

The next moment, the movements of those thousands upon thousands of Zhou Qings slowed down. They evolved secret techniques, dismantled ancient arts, and studied the true meaning, ultimately delving into the founder's great Dao philosophy.

Any secret technique, especially those in forbidden realms, will eventually become connected to the founder's fundamental philosophy once you delve into it.

This concept of the Great Dao was cultivated step by step by the creator, starting from the Dao-Slaying Realm. Finally, when creating the forbidden domain, he used his own personality as the foundation and his life experiences as the structure, and under the guidance of his own Dao enlightenment, he created this forbidden domain that was more than 100% compatible with himself.

Zhou Qing's true form stood beneath the Fusang Divine Tree, eyes closed. A waterfall of Daoist energy flowed from his body, causing everyone in Tang Valley to enter a state of enlightenment, their bodies enveloped in a hazy mist.

Surrounded by golden mist, he appeared as if a celestial emperor had descended to earth.

His chakra was radiating celestial light, transforming into a Tai Chi diagram that was spinning rapidly. The yin and yang fish seemed to be merging together, and wisps of chaotic energy overflowed from the rapidly spinning Tai Chi diagram.

A deafening Daoist sound reverberated from his Daoist palace, and a figure leaped out of it, though it was very blurry.

This is the past me, as if I were sitting cross-legged in the past, the stars and rivers turning, submerged by the power of time, not belonging to this world, and forever unreachable.

Suddenly, another figure leaped out of the Dao Palace. This was Dao Wo, who had become one with heaven and man and transformed into the Dao. He had a pair of incredibly blurry eyes, cold and majestic, as if he were the only supreme deity in the world.

Besides the past self and the Dao self, there is also the true self, which can also be called the original self. The true self exists in this world and is destined to be invincible. It does not need to fly out of the Dao Palace because the true self always exists at the point of "now". Zhou Qing himself is the true self of this world!

In addition, five ethereal deities flew out from the palace behind the five internal organs, circling together in the void, their bodies radiating the five elements of immortal light, representing the five fundamental elements of heaven and earth.

boom!

The greatest sound is the silence, the sound of creation. A chaotic primordial energy rose up around him, boundless and limitless. He felt as if he were in boundless chaos, unable to even feel the earth beneath his feet. His body floated up and drifted in mid-air.

Suddenly, the Taiji Immortal Diagram emitted immortal light, extending outwards and settling in the chaos. Rays of light spread outwards, transforming into the primordial land of heaven and earth.

The five elements of immortal light rotated, and the five illusory deities transformed into the five elements of immortal light, forming the foundation of the world.

The Five Elements are the foundation, capable of constructing the world and transforming into the cosmos and galaxies; they are the supreme basis of the Dao.

Stars teeming with life, galaxies stretching across the sky, the radiant sun, and the deep black holes of the universe have all gradually evolved, as if a universe is being created.

"Heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang; this is the most basic element."

"All things give rise to the five elements, which generate and restrain each other, thus evolving all phenomena in the world. This is the foundation of the world."

Zhou Qing's surroundings transformed into a sea of ​​stars, with the sun, moon, and galaxy, a vast and boundless spectacle, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges.

His primordial spirit leaped out from the Immortal Platform, permeated with immortal Dao light, entwined with divine radiance, and resounded with the harmony of heaven and earth, with nine divine rings surrounding his primordial spirit.

"Within the Dao Palace, all the gods are me. There is no such thing as the departed self or the Dao self; they are all the true self!"

I was originally a blurry figure, submerged by the power of time, forever unapproachable, but at this moment the mist around me suddenly dissipated, and brilliant rays of light tore through the chaos, as if illuminating the eternal river of time.

I stand in the future, comprehending the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, sensing the fundamental Dao, and in harmony with the heavens and humanity. At this moment, I also release boundless radiance and chant the Daoist sound that can bring sudden enlightenment, which resounds loudly.

Unbeknownst to him, his former self and his true self gradually shrank, becoming the same size as Zhou Qing's primordial spirit. He sat cross-legged in front of Zhou Qing's altar, with a faintly visible flower of the Great Dao beneath him.

"The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three gives birth to all things, and all things are ultimately the Tao. By returning to the origin, one can achieve the one true self!"

The light emanating from Shiwo and Daowo blazed brightly, surging into Zhou Qing's primordial spirit. The three spirits merged into one, and Zhou Qing seemed to ascend to immortality, a state of primordial energy...

The feeling of God finally achieving perfection arose in my heart.

Perfect, flawless, and without imperfection—it was an indescribable feeling of joy. In just an instant, Zhou Qing felt his potential explode.

From then on, there was no longer a past me or a future me. The three flowers of the Great Dao merged into one, and Zhou Qing's primordial spirit seemed to be in an eternal time, spanning the past, present, and future, as if it could cross three eras.

Zhou Qing's true form was evolving his own laws and forging his own Dao, while his myriad incarnations were not idle either, each undergoing a dramatic change in temperament, with countless Daoist thoughts appearing between heaven and earth.

"Fight against heaven and earth, I am the only one! Seize life and destiny, reverse the heavens and earth!" An avatar exudes a battle spirit that is unmatched and supreme, shaking the ages and surpassing all paths with his will.

"The physical body is the vessel, the primordial spirit is the true self. By condensing the immortal primordial spirit, one can live forever in this world, life after life!" An avatar emitted immortal Dao light, with traces of time flowing around its body. It actually touched the power of time by relying on its primordial spirit.

"Innate array patterns cannot trap me, and supreme Dao techniques cannot block me. If I wish to become an immortal and roam freely, how can time hinder me? I will surpass the speed of time and always walk ahead of it!" An avatar vanished with each step, as if walking through time, traversing the years, at a speed that exceeded the common sense of the world.

"Nothing in this world is not an enemy! Inanimate sand and stones, living beings, visible wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and invisible cause and effect and reincarnation, are all weapons in my hands!" An avatar was surrounded by lightning and thunder, wind and clouds, but it was skillfully controlled in his hands, and he controlled the entire world.

Besides these Daoist thoughts, there are all sorts of other Daoist thoughts: the Dao of the Western Emperor, the Dao of Chaos and Antiquity, the Dao of the Ruthless Man, the Dao of Covering the Nine Netherworlds, and the Dao of the Sun Emperor. Each of these Daoist thoughts can be described as earth-shattering and unparalleled, stunning the ages and influencing the lives of an entire generation.

Heaven, moved by the sight, sent down various extraordinary phenomena in this place.

Auspicious colors descended from the sky, sweet springs gushed from the earth, withered trees sprouted new buds, and light rain danced in the air. Everyone in Tang Valley felt as if their bodies had been baptized, and even their primordial spirits had been cleansed.

Divine radiance illuminated the sky, auspicious signs appeared, celestial light shone brightly, and a sacred aura swirled around. Strands of Dao principles swept through the air, making it easy for people to sense that the world here had undergone drastic changes!

However, these were not the unusual phenomena of Zhou Qing's severing of the Dao. He was still undergoing his final transformation and had not yet verified with heaven and earth. He did not want to undergo the tribulation in his current state. He wanted to make a final sprint!

Only by transcending the past and present, and surpassing the mundane, can one take the ultimate leap into a brand new world and begin a new journey of evolution!

The people of the Ancient Sun Cult were completely immersed in this dramatic change in the Great Dao. The laws of heaven and earth suddenly became incredibly clear, and Zhou Qing exuded an incredibly rich Dao aura. In the sky, countless avatars of Zhou Qing were also evolving various profound and unfathomable Great Daos. Under these circumstances, everyone was immersed in the state of enlightenment.

boom!

The changes that occurred in Tanggu were so drastic, like a beacon in the boundless darkness. In such a desolate era for cultivation, this place was simply too different, so much so that the sun star transformed into a huge beam of light, shining directly on Tanggu in the East Sea.

This was incredibly terrifying; everyone in the Ziwei Star Region was stunned, each and every one of them...

He looked shocked, wondering what had caused the changes in the sun.

"A divine treasure has appeared in the East Sea!"

The news spread instantly throughout the Ziwei Starfield, causing a sensation on this ancient star. Large numbers of people headed to the East Sea to search for the immortal treasure.

Above the East Sea, countless cultivators flew back and forth, but when they arrived here, they discovered that they could no longer see where the beams of sunlight were shining. They suddenly disappeared in mid-air, and no one knew where they had landed.

From that day on, the people of the Ziwei Star Region began to face a strange phenomenon: when the sun was high in the sky, a thin line could always be seen extending from the side of the sun, as if it had landed on the ancient Ziwei Star, but its location could not be found.

Even the naked eye of ordinary people can see the existence of that thin line, but they rack their brains but still can't figure out what caused it.

In the ruins of the Golden Crow Clan, some small sects and some daring mortals were scavenging what was left, not even leaving behind a single tile. In the world of cultivators, even the tiles used to build palaces were not ordinary bricks and stones, but had great value in the mortal realm.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man, resembling a demon, appeared above the ruins, his face cold and indifferent, his thoughts unknown.
