Chapter 90 The Dao Transformation of Emperor Cangli, the Dark Age (First Update, Please Subscribe and Vote)

"As expected, this is the era of the Emperor!"

Upon hearing Huang Quan Lao Zu's words, Tai Yi Shi immediately pondered, "The Emperor has been in seclusion for ten Yuan Hui (a unit of time in Chinese calendars). Could it be that he has reached that stage?"

At this moment, Tu Bo laughed and said, "Your Majesty holds the reins of Heaven and commands all the gods. Your cultivation is profound, and you have long surpassed us."

"We believe our Way is equal to Heaven's, but His Majesty's Way is higher than Heaven's!"

"How could it not succeed?"

Taiyi could tell that Tubo held the Emperor in high esteem and had great confidence in him.

However, after the Emperor passed away, the country entered a dark age, and Tubo passed away during this era.

Since the Emperor has already attained enlightenment, why would Tu Bo also attain enlightenment?

Did they follow the same path as the Emperor, or was there another reason?

Just then, Tu Bo and Huang Quan Lao Zu's conversation came to an end.

However, Taiyi could tell that Huangquan Laozi left with worries and seemed not to approve of the Emperor's actions.

"What do you think, fellow Daoist?"

Suddenly, Uncle Tu spoke again.

Taiyi was startled, because at this moment, apart from Tubo, he seemed to be the only other person in the hall.

Ask me?

But isn't this a mark left by the Tao, a memory?

Has it really come back to the era of the Emperor?

And what's more, he'd been discovered?

Taiyi felt uneasy and was about to answer when a soft laugh suddenly rang out in the hall: "Uncle Tu, you already have the answer, why ask me?"

"The Cangli clan's cultivation is indeed very high, surpassing even the Great Dao of this world, but how long has this world been established?"

"How long has the evolution of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth been?"

"And beyond the heavens, there are still heavens!"

"It should be understood that this world is merely a part of this chaotic era."

"As the saying goes, there are heavens beyond heavens, and paths beyond paths!"

Upon hearing this voice, Taiyi was horrified.

There were other people inside this hall!

He was completely unaware of it.

Moreover, what he sees and perceives at this moment actually originates from Tu Bo.

He went to see the Yellow Springs Ancestor, but in reality, it was Tu Bo who was watching.

This means that even Tu Bo, the owner of this voice, cannot easily see or sense it.

Tu Bo is a top-tier innate deity, the most ancient being in the netherworld. In this era, how many beings surpass Him?

How many people can He not see or easily sense?

Who is this person?

Shocked, Tai Yi was also extremely curious.

Tu Bo said calmly, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to exaggerate."

"God and the Way are one; we are born this way!"

The mysterious man laughed loudly upon hearing this: "That's not entirely untrue."

"However, the Dao of Cangli Clan ends in the present; it cannot encompass the past, nor can it encompass the future."

"His Great Luo is limited to the present, therefore he wants to use both God and Dao to become the Dao God of this world, so that his Dao can encompass the future, in order to reach the end of the Great Dao."

"However, his innate Yin-Yang constitution is insufficient to achieve this."

"This era is the most unique era."

Tu Bo frowned upon hearing this.

Taiyi frowned as well, realizing that there was much unsaid in the mysterious man's words.

Moreover, who is this mysterious person, and how does he know so much?

At this moment, Tu Bo said, "I cannot agree with what you have said, fellow Daoist."

"The Great Luo is eternally proven; Your Majesty's Yin and Yang innate nature encompasses all the Great Dao since the beginning of time."

"No matter how the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth evolves in this world, it cannot be explained by the primordial Yin and Yang!"

The Great Luo is proven eternally, Yin and Yang are inherently connected...

Tai Yi was startled.

He had guessed the path that Emperor Cangli would take.

Because the Shinto originated from the Heavenly Emperor Cangli, the earliest lineage of the Heavenly Gods began to evolve into the Cave Heaven from the Upper Dantian Purple Mansion, cultivating Yin and Yang and the Four Symbols.

However, what is the difference between Yin and Yang in the pre-heaven state and Yin and Yang in the pre-heaven state?

But is Da Luo's proof of eternal truth... just as he imagined?

Taiyi hoped the ensuing conversation would resolve his doubts, but the mysterious man said, "The Great Luo is proven once and for all; this is only natural."

"In the past and future, whether it is this chaotic era, or the chaotic eras of the past, or the chaotic eras of the future, however, as I just said, his Dao cannot encompass the Dao of the chaotic eras of the past, nor can it encompass the Dao of the chaotic eras of the future, much less the Dao of other chaotic universes."

"Tu Bo, the Great Luo you belong to is only just beginning."

Tu Bo frowned upon hearing this.

Tai Yishi was also frowning.

In this chaotic era, in the primordial world, how can one's own Dao encompass the Dao of the past chaotic era and the Dao of the future chaotic era?

Furthermore, a chaotic era refers to the birth and death of a universe.

What does "other chaotic universes" mean?

Are there other universes like the primordial chaos within the primordial chaos?

For a time, doubts arose one after another.

Tu Bo was clearly the same; he knew far more than Tai Yi Shi, but he was still not as knowledgeable as this mysterious person.

The mysterious man smiled and continued, "Uncle Tu, let's make a bet."

"I am certain that the Cangli clan will not be able to take that step!"

"It's not just that his cultivation level is insufficient, but also his Daoist heart and his magical power are insufficient."

"If I lose, I will know that I have said everything without reservation."

Tu Bo asked in a deep voice, "What if I lose?"

"You've already lost..."

The mysterious man chuckled softly.

The laughter faded into the distance until it was no longer audible.

Tu Bo remained silent, then rose and walked outside the hall, looking up at the dark, empty sky.

Taiyi noticed that Tubo's Dao heart was in turmoil.

His faith was fractured by the words of that mysterious man.

"Is this the origin of Tubo's Taoist practices?"

Taiyi's speculation.

One year.

century.

Millennia.

……

Tu Bo stood before the palace, gazing at the heavens, and stood there for ten thousand years.

On this day, He suddenly summoned all the gods of the underworld and preached the Dharma in His Great Hall of the Underworld.

Taiyi was overjoyed and quickly immersed himself in the boundless wonders of the Dao, casting aside the countless doubts that had previously occupied his mind.

Time flies.

Taiyi didn't know how much time had passed.

Suddenly, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth trembled and roared.

Tu Bo stopped speaking and came to his senses.

Then someone exclaimed, "Blood is raining down from the sky!"

Tu Bo suddenly stood up and stepped out of the Youdu Hall, but his imposing figure appeared somewhat unsteady.

The gods inside the hall swarmed out.

Outside the palace, through Tu Bo, Tai Yi also saw it.

Blood rained down from the sky, the heavens cracked, the stars trembled, and yin and yang were reversed.

At this moment, a sense of sorrow enveloped the world.

The Old Ancestor of the Underworld looked up at the sky, watching the blood rain falling from the heavens, his lips trembling: "The Emperor... the Emperor has passed away!"

Pfft!

Some ghosts and spirits fell to the ground, their livers and gallbladders ruptured.

Tu Bo's majestic body trembled slightly, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, but vanished in an instant.

Tai Yi was momentarily stunned, feeling as if he had witnessed history, and a nameless sadness welled up in his heart.

Is it because the whole world is grieving, or because of the sorrow of the Earth God?

Suddenly, the Earth God shouted, "Gentlemen, His Majesty's divine intervention will inevitably lead to chaos. Everyone, return to your positions to stabilize the netherworld. Anyone who takes advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble will be killed without mercy!"

The gods came to their senses, accepted the order, and then transformed into streaks of light and departed.

Tu Bo stood in front of the hall, lost in thought.

Suddenly, the mysterious voice rang out again in the hall: "Uncle Tu, you see, you really lost!"

"This world is about to descend into chaos!"

"With Cangli gone, there is no one left to suppress the heavens and the three realms. Hehe, those ambitious people will surely wreak havoc on the three realms and become the second Heavenly Emperor."

Tu Bo said in a deep voice, "No one can disturb the netherworld!"

The mysterious man remained noncommittal, then smiled and said, "Uncle Tu, I haven't mentioned the bet you lost before, but I will tell you today."

"It is not impossible for God to be in harmony with the Great Way of Heaven and Earth."

"And now is the perfect time."

Tu Bo frowned upon hearing this. "What method?"

The mysterious man laughed and said, "Gathering the vital energy, resentment, killing intent, and calamity of all living beings to erode the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and resist its transformation."

"Uncle Tu, with your cultivation, practice, and heart, although you cannot reach the level of Cangli, at least you can be on par with the Great Dao of the Netherworld."

Upon hearing this, Tu Bo's expression changed, and he coldly snorted, "I have said it before, no one can disturb the Netherworld!"

The mysterious man chuckled: "Uncle Tu, you can't do that with your abilities."

"Only by truly taking control of the entire Netherworld Path and existing alongside the entire Netherworld can you suppress the Netherworld and prevent it from descending into chaos."

"You can even clean up the messes for the Cangli clan."

Tu Bo did not answer; his divine eyes surveyed all the heavens of the three realms.

Calamity is brewing, and chaos has begun.

Taiyi also saw that the cracks in Tubo's heart were widening little by little.

He couldn't help but feel anxious: "This mysterious person is deliberately misleading Tu Bo..."

However, there was nothing Taiyi could do; he couldn't remind Tubo.

At this moment, he was merely an onlooker.

Tu Bo walked down Youdu Mountain, and with each step he took, his body swelled up a bit.

When he arrived at the vast River Styx, his figure had become immeasurably tall.

His feet were on the surface of the River Styx, while his head had already sunk deep into the starry sky of the underworld.

His divine eyes shone with a brilliant light, illuminating the entire three realms.

Evil spirits and demons began to wreak havoc in the underworld, but they were quickly suppressed by the gods of the underworld.

However, a terrible upheaval broke out in the heavens and the primordial land, with countless gods and demons attacking and killing each other.

Deathly energy, vengeful spirits, broken primordial spirits, and even the corpses of gods and demons either enter the Netherworld along the River Styx or fall directly into the Netherworld from the void.

Through the eyes of the Earth God, Taiyi saw the figures engaged in a great battle in the Nine Heavens.

There is the ancestral dragon, the ancestral qilin, the ancestral phoenix...

One by one, the figures he had seen in the Miro Palace took to the stage.

He also heard the First Emperor roar angrily: "Heavens, what virtue or ability do you possess to dare monopolize the Nine Heavens?"

"Because I am the heavens!"

"We brothers were born to rule the Nine Heavens; the Cangli clan is merely a cuckoo occupying the nest."

"Indeed, now that the Cangli clan has passed away, it is time to set things right!"

"We are the masters of the Nine Heavens, the realm of the Dao, and it is fitting that we brothers should wield the reins of the Heavenly Order!"

Phoenix Ancestor sneered, "Azure Heaven, Yellow Heaven, Dark Heaven, Nether Heaven, you are all incompetent and wicked; how can you compare to the Heavenly Emperor!"

"Gentlemen, let's join forces and kill them!"

Hongjun sighed, "Why must you four fellow Daoists commit so much killing?"

"In the current situation, we should work together to maintain the stability of the universe, not engage in private battles."

"In doing so, we will surely be taken advantage of by extraterrestrial demons."

Yang Mei then spoke up: "Fellow Daoist Hongjun is right. Why don't we put down our weapons and quell the turmoil in the Great Dao first?"
