Instead, he became expressionless at this moment, with no sign of anger, and seemed not to care about the figures walking away from him.
The figures behind Li Pingan and the Faceless Man gradually increased;
The number of people behind the old man has decreased by about 40%.
In the sea of chaos, the giant chaos beasts seemed to have divided into camps and began to confront each other.
Li Ping looked at this situation quietly, with a little helplessness in his eyes. He was dressed in white clothes like snow, surrounded by green lotuses.
"Teacher," Li Ping'an said, "I think everyone still respects you. Why don't we each take a step back... to lead everyone to a better world? Isn't that right?"
The old man said nothing, and the gap in his body continued to shine brightly.
Li Ping'an continued: "Are you really just driven by obsession, to complete your obsession in order to complete your obsession? I don't believe that I have been with the teacher for hundreds of years, although this period of time is very important to the teacher. It’s nothing, but it’s been a long time for me, and I can feel your concern for me.”
Wanri sighed and looked down at his palm.
Li Ping'an didn't say much.
when--
The Chaos Bell landed in front of Old Man Wanri with its melodious sound, and the bell spirit appeared with a faint fairy light.
She looked at Li Ping'an with a bit of a wry smile in her eyes:
"Can you tell me what happened? Why... and you, how did you become a taoist?"
Li Ping'an glanced at the faceless man, and was not afraid of what would happen if he said this in front of all the immortals. He just said: "To be specific, I haven't fully realized it yet. The core problem is that there can only be one between me and heaven and earth, and then It suddenly occurred to me that I could make myself and the world become one and the same... harmonious."
Zhong Ling said in confusion: "But this world is flawed, and it will come to an end. Isn't this what you are doing? Isn't this suicide?"
"maybe."
Li Pingan smiled calmly:
"When I learned the truth, I no longer knew how to face it all.
"At least the problem is solved now, isn't it?"
Zhong Ling didn't know what to say for a moment: "Yes, but he has done so much for you."
"I didn't deny it, I didn't refuse it, I even admitted everything because I cared about him."
Li Ping'an's eyes were a little more helpless:
"I just want to solve the problem now. Although four hundred and twenty-nine worlds have passed away, this time, I at least want to stop it.
"Because I'm here, I'm here.
"I'm going to do what I think is right."
"But!"
"Okay," Wan Ri closed his eyes and sighed softly, his pupils seemed to have lost all light in an instant, "In the end, I just worked in vain."
"No, teacher," Li Ping'an shrugged, "Maybe you can think about how to pull me and the world out of the final catastrophe...don't you want to save me?"
Wanri's expression was suddenly speechless.
Sanqing, who had recovered as before, slowly rose behind Li Ping'an.
The leader of Tongtian looked at Li Ping'an and the faceless man with a confused expression. Yuanshi Tianzun showed a little more admiration in his eyes, but Taiqing showed no emotion at all.
The old man came riding a bull, bowed to the old man, then shook off the dust and said slowly:
"Transcendent Spirit, today's situation no longer requires a big fight.
"If a war breaks out, both sides will suffer losses. The world that fellow Taoists want to open up, and the world that we want to open up, will not be able to be truly born.
"Today is a critical moment for the tangible world. It is better for each of us to take a half-step back and achieve success."
Wanri shook his head, his figure was wrapped in a cloud of mist, and returned to his usual appearance.
He just looked at Li Pingan and asked calmly: "Is this what you want?"
"That's what I want."
"That's good, that's good," the old man Wangri showed a satisfied smile, "In that case, I have finished what I should do. After you join the Tao, you will become a part of the world, and you will be free from my karma.
out."
Li Ping'an thought for a moment and called softly: "Father?"
The world of heaven and earth is peaceful and quiet.
The surrounding area becomes audible.
Old Man Wanri smiled, just smiling with his eyes closed, and he said:
"I'm about to collapse. I can't do much more for you. Since you have chosen this path, I don't have to force you any more... I will wait for you at the end of the Chaos Sea, waiting for you to open up a new path.
In this world, I will try my best to live as long as possible, so that if someone wants to plot against you, I can help you destroy them.
"After I die, you will have complete control over this sarcophagus and the remains of heaven and earth, as will the Chaos Clock.
"I'm really tired.
"Actually, I would rather have a grand ending, a sublime battle, and pass away happily... Unfortunately, my story can only end peacefully, because I have to keep all the energy to explore.
"The starry sky... the starry sky is pretty good..."
The old man's left hand was slightly open.
Almost instantly, one-third of the figures in the small world collapsed.
Wisps of dust flew back around Wanri's body and then disappeared.
Wangri's aura slowly rose, and even... his strength was three points higher than what he had been able to suppress Pangu God before.
Wanri looked around, his eyes mostly filled with coldness.
He said: "I'm letting go of this world for the time being, not because I can't defeat you, or because I'm worried about the damage to the origin of heaven and earth. I can complete a few more reincarnations to make up for the current shortcomings. I'm letting you go... just because he made such a decision.
Don’t live up to your choice.”
After saying this, Wangri flicked his sleeves, and his figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the bronze mirror.
Taoist Zhaiyun smiled and bowed to Li Ping'an, then turned and left with a bronze mirror in hand. Those figures who followed Wan Ri, no matter whether they supported Pangu's side or Wan Ri's side before, chose to follow Wan Rili now.
go.
They don't seem to be afraid of being cleaned by Wan Ri.
The world quickly became quiet.
Li Ping'an didn't know why, but his heart felt empty, and he stood there for a long time without regaining consciousness.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty?" Laojun called from the side.
"Well," Li Ping'an cheered up. He wanted to smile a little, but it turned into a bitter smile, "Laojun, what's wrong?"
"Your Majesty," the old gentleman lowered his head and bowed to the Tao, "it is truly a blessing for all living beings to join the Tao in order to protect the heaven and the earth."
All the immortals and gods below saluted together.
"Your Majesty," Yaochi looked at Li Ping'an with complex eyes and whispered, "You should discuss this with us...at the very least...it's better to say it in advance..."
"Am I any different now than before?"
Li Pingan spread his hands:
"Hedao does not completely become the way of heaven, it just binds myself to the way of heaven. My body is still there.
"The only thing that has been cut off is the chance of transcendence. If the world is gone, I will be gone... But that is already an extremely distant thing. Now, he will not interfere with this world. We can carry out what I have done."
Four plans.”
As Li Ping'an spoke, he looked down at Qing Su.
Qing Su smiled and nodded, but didn't say much.
Li Ping'an secretly regretted that Ning Ning was not here, otherwise all the relationships he had in this life would have been together.
He smiled and said: "Why are everyone crying and looking sad? Oh, yes, many people have disappeared."
Li Pingan looked down.
On the Chanjiao side, three of the Twelve Golden Immortals are missing. They are afraid of leaving behind their grandchildren, Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun and Samantabhadra.
What surprised Li Ping'an was that the deputy leader Randen and Taoist Cihang were still there.
They are not chess pieces made by an old man out of tiny parts of himself.
There are a total of thirty-seven or eight people missing from Jiejiao's side.
This made Master Tongtian's expression extremely complex.
Really, Master Tongtian never dreamed that such a large part of the disciples he gained from fighting and preaching in ancient times were pawns planted by Old Man Wanri.
On the side, Yuanshi Tianzun looked at the Tongtian Cult Leader with a smile, his expression seemed to be reproaching, but also seemed to be showing off.
Show off his foresight and his rule of not teaching lightly when explaining teachings.
Li Ping'an stretched and said with a smile: "Everyone, please continue to observe here. Later, please ask Master to continue to protect this place. We have only resolved the pressure from the transcendent ones, and the true end of heaven and earth has not yet been effectively resolved.
.”
Tongtian asked: "Where will your Majesty go later? Why not go to Biyou Palace to play for some time."
"There are still a lot of things to do," Li Ping'an shook his head solemnly, "I don't want to bear any pressure, but so many worlds and countless lives have passed away, and the overall price paid has been extremely huge.
The sea of stars must be opened up."
All the immortals and gods looked solemn together.
Li Ping'an opened his left hand, and the Chaos Bell turned into the size of a fist and slowly fell.
He said: "From today on, I will hold the Chaos Bell and practice in the Sea of Dao. There are only four saints left in the world, but the foundation of the heaven and the earth cannot be shaken."
The old gentleman said: "Tai Qing has said that a Taoist conference will be held from the Nine Heavens in a hundred years, and the fate of the Great Tribulation of Gods should be here."
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded slowly and took the initiative to express his position: "My disciples can be included in the list of gods."
The leader of Tongtian Cult said slowly: "I am a disciple of Jiejiao Cult, and you can also join the list in the physical body."
The disciples of the two Chanjie sects glanced at Li Ping'an, but neither said anything.
Compared with Li Ping'an's union before the end of heaven and earth, why shouldn't they enter heaven with their bodies?
"Alas," Nuwa sighed, "I never thought that a transcendent person would actually..."
"Holy Mother," Li Pingan said with a smile, "I will visit the Holy Mother Palace later. Although the matter of the list of gods is no longer bound to Nanzhou, the matter of Nanzhou still needs to be pushed forward."
Nuwa asked: "How should you push it?"
"My original intention was not to care too much, but I am already in Nanzhou."
Li Pingan said seriously:
"There are actually only three major things in the world that I really care about.
"First, heaven and earth have come to an end, and things have turned around.
"The second is the power of detachment. This matter has been basically resolved.
"The third is the matter of Nanzhou's Human Sacrifice. This matter has not yet been completely settled. We should continue to push forward."
Nuwa nodded slowly and said, "It's rare that you don't change your original intention. Then I'll wait for you to find her from the Notre Dame Palace."
After saying this, Nuwa bowed to Li Ping'an, turned around and disappeared into rainbow light.
Her departure was a start for the immortals and gods, and the Sanqings all left one after another, taking away all the masters along the way, and sealed the world again.
This place is the most important place in the future world.
Li Ping'an looked at the mess everywhere and the confused Donghuang Taiyi, and couldn't help but laugh: "Go drink, substitute."
The corners of Donghuang Taiyi's mouth were twitching crazily.
…
An hour later.
Chaoge City, inside the empty palace hall.
Li Ping'an put down the wine bottle, and without using Ji Dan's clone, he sat in a soft position and stared at the white clouds outside the door in a daze.
Donghuang Taiyi burped and wondered: "How did you find out?"
"What did you find?"
"That's right, you can solve everything by joining forces," Donghuang Taiyi couldn't help but mutter, "I thought the two sides had to start a war."
"There are many ways to solve problems, and we can look for the route that leads to the greatest victory with the least sacrifice."
Li Ping'an curled his lips slightly:
"Do you think I want to be in harmony with the Tao? From now on, I will live and die together with heaven and earth. I will find a way to extend the life of heaven and earth, which is to extend my life.
"I have hesitated before.
"Originally, I don't owe the world anything. I've done enough. What does it have to do with me whether the world is destroyed or not? But I know that my father has done so much for me. I feel so stressed...
Just got up.
"At that time, I felt like, here, look here, it's about to explode."
Li Pingan pointed to his head.
Donghuang Taiyi smiled naively: "Aren't you going on? What you said before is right. It's not that the father thinks it is good, the son will think it is good. This world is not the heir of the father. Although the father created it, he did not
Qualifications that determine the fate of heaven and earth."
"No, no, no, this is just from our perspective as a living being. The answers to this question obtained from different perspectives are different."
Li Pingan shrugged:
"From the beginning to the end, there is not much justice here, only positions, in other words, the justice of each position.
"I still say that the most important thing is to abide by one's own principles. For example, one of my principles is that only actions that do not infringe on the rights of others have the most basic justice."
"I don't understand," Donghuang Taiyi smiled comfortably, "I don't even bother to understand, how do you want to arrange it for me?"
Li Ping'an said: "I will use the Chaos Clock to go back later and let you escape from this place in exchange for your original Zi Shou. You can go to the heaven and the human world to reunite with Zhichu, and then you can rebuild your life by yourself."
Donghuang Taiyi smiled and said: "I will obey Daozu's orders unconditionally."
"I'm not a Taoist ancestor," Li Ping'an said with a bitter expression, "I'm just a little person who has everything arranged by my father."
"oh?"
Donghuang Taiyi couldn't help but wonder:
“Didn’t you just rely on your own efforts to turn the entire war situation around?
"You made your own sacrifice, you completed your plan...this..."
"That's it," Li Ping'an said, "I don't dare to say this to other people. If I do, I will feel useless, but that's the fact."
"specific?"
Donghuang Taiyi was completely puzzled.
Li Pingan breathed out softly:
"I can't describe exactly what this feels like, but my intuition tells me that the path I'm taking now is actually the path arranged for me by my father.
"He understands my character.
"He understands everyone's personality. He generally understands the personality of the main masters in this ancient world.
"Would he not be aware that there was something strange about Pangu? Would he not be aware that the men he trained had gradually identified with Pangu? Would he not be aware that there is no sustainable world?
"He has been lying to me, partly lying, and then look at the result now?
"I sacrificed myself to join the Tao to stop his plan to destroy the world. I have gained the respect of almost all living beings. Although I am his son, no one will mention this matter in the future. When they mention me, they will only say
I sacrificed myself for the sake of righteousness and fought against the detached father. I am a hero..."
Donghuang Taiyi asked back: "But, after you join the Tao, won't you be trapped in the world? Your life will still be in danger next. Since he has been saving you, how could he let you fall into such a possibility?"
The danger of being unable to be saved? You have to know that when you open up that sea of stars, you may die, and this world may not be able to survive."
Li Ping'an sighed: "After integrating with the way of heaven, I can already deduce very complex problems... We have all overlooked one thing."
"What?"
"Skeletons."
"Skeletons?"
"Well, another Li Ping'an's skeleton."
Li Ping'an smiled bitterly and said:
"He has always preserved it. I actually still have a chance to leave the world. After the destruction of this world, my soul will be freed.
"I can already predict what will happen in the future.
"Under my leadership, prehistoric civilization has gradually moved towards the 'Mechanical Fairyland'. We drove huge ships in the Sea of Chaos to hunt innate gods and demons and replenish the origin of heaven and earth.
"Civilization is constantly evolving, and there are still about tens of thousands of years left to evolve until a truly giant civilization emerges. Then we gather all the remains of the previous world and the original power of heaven and earth to open up that star sea and universe, and let living beings enter
A new cycle of life begins in the universe.
“In this process, I will gradually become the rule maker who dominates everything.
"Then there should be another sacrifice scene for me. The old world collapses and I suffer heavy losses. Then, my soul will be picked up by my father who is waiting in suspended animation. His Li Ping'an will be resurrected. I am still me, but I have become
He gave birth to his son, his true son, his obsession was satisfied and he was completely freed.
"That's most likely the case."
"This!" Donghuang Taiyi raised his hand to his forehead, "How do I feel? You are just guessing."
"Just think of it as a guess."
Li Pingan sighed.
He stared at the clouds outside the hall and showed a somewhat peaceful smile:
"Fortunately, he didn't kill my father, the father who came with me."
"By the way, your father is still sleeping?"
"He was drunk," Li Ping'an laughed bitterly, "actually he was drunk by the way of heaven, to prevent the avenue of cause and effect from collapsing in the final confrontation and reconciliation. This is probably part of his plan."
Donghuang Taiyi raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
Li Ping'an asked: "When are you going to heaven?"
"In a few days, I still have something to do."
"What do you want to do?"
"Place incense at Nuwa Temple!"
Li Ping'an almost kicked him.
at the same time.
Outside Xuandu City, within the secret realm of the Transcendent One.
The reclining old man Wangri slid the bronze mirror in front of him and stared at the figures of Li Ping'an and Donghuang Taiyi chatting and laughing, with a little smile on his lips.
There are longing figures behind him, but most of these figures have dull eyes and dull expressions.
The sarcophagus in his arms was shining with a warm yellow light.
A faint light and shadow appeared behind the secret realm.
The crisp ringing of the bell rang, and a young Taoist priest in purple robe slowly appeared, looking at Wan Ri's figure with complicated eyes.
"Fellow."
The young Taoist called out, and his voice instantly aroused Wanri's vigilance.
Wan Ri suddenly turned his head and immediately sat up, staring at the young Taoist in front of him who shouldn't have been here.
"Fellow Taoist Wuwangzi? When did you come?"
"For some time, before you started to make this final plan, I have been watching how you deal with this matter,"
Wuwangzi clicked his tongue:
"What I need to remind you is that you have violated the twelve laws and regulations of the transcendent realm. You will need to endure the pain for a long time. You have interfered too deeply with the tangible realm.
"You even made the mysterious boss I mentioned before think that an interesting prehistoric world was born in this visible world. Later, after adjusting the data of your visible world, I found out that you were in
Man-made myths are created to allow heaven and earth to reincarnate.
“The Space-Time Administration takes protecting the rights and interests of every true spirit as its basic principle.
"I'm actually here to arrest you."
Wanri frowned tightly and smiled bitterly: "Can I resist?"
"Actually, I am also quite interested in the evolution of the sea of chaos into the sea of stars in the universe, and I also want to observe it."
Wuwangzi raised his eyebrows slightly and walked up to Wangri:
"It's just that you can't take action anymore.
"When the children are old, it's time for them to walk on their own...the words that the mysterious boss brought to you."
Wanri was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled with relief, his eyes full of emotion.
He asked: "Who is that mysterious big guy that fellow Taoists have been talking about?"
"I do not know."
"Fellow Taoist, don't you know?"
"Hmm," Wu Huanzi's expression was a little complicated, "He never reveals his name, so he is not involved in cause and effect. Although he is the deputy director in name, he is the founder of the entire Space-Time Management Bureau. You can really contact him
There are only a small number of employees in the company. He values your ability to build the world and will probably invite you to become a creator later."
Wanri:……
"Pindao is about to collapse."
"It doesn't matter if you lie to others, I can't kill you even if you don't want to."
Wu Huanzi squinted his eyes and smiled, and took Wan Ri's bronze mirror naturally:
"You still have a lot of sins to pay for slowly. Even if you die, you will be balanced back. Believe it or not.
"Let me see what your precious son is doing..."
In the bronze mirror, the scene of Li Ping'an and Mu Ningning kissing slowly emerged.
