“Reincarnation?” A strange expression flashed in the old man’s eyes.
“No wonder I sensed the power of time on Daoist friend’s body; so that’s the case.” The old man sighed lightly, not asking any further.
Everyone has their own secrets, especially those who have reached his level. Probing into others’ secrets recklessly is not a wise thing to do.
Lin Feng’s expression was also somewhat heavy. Now that he had reached the level of Pseudo-Self, he realized how difficult it was to end the cycle in the divine realm.
Even if one truly became the True Self, it seemed impossible to end the cycle in the divine realm, only the destruction of the divine realm.
This was because a true self expert had only left the river of time. However, it was impossible for a person to attain the Dao and soar to the heavens.
In that case, was there any hope above the true self?
“Daoist friend, I have just stepped into this realm, and there are still some things unclear. I wonder if you could enlighten me,” Lin Feng asked the old man with a cupped hand.
“Feel free to ask, fellow Daoist. There are not many kindred spirits, and I will certainly share what I know.” The old man smiled and spoke amicably.
“Do you know what exists beyond the True Self?” Lin Feng asked with a deep voice.
When the old man heard this, his expression changed and he said excitedly,
“Fellow Daoist, have you seen such an existence before?”
Lin Feng nodded heavily because now that he recalled everything about Xiao Yaozi, he realized that the other party was indeed more than just the True Self. Although true self experts were unique, it was still very difficult for them to transcend the Chaos.
Even now that Lin Feng had reached the pseudo-realm, he could only vaguely sense the Divine Realm. As for how big the Chaos was, he still did not know.
However, he had seen Xiao Yaozi in Little Black’s memories. At that time, although the other party had used his true self’s methods, he did not know where the real other party was.
Being able to traverse the boundless chaos, guide oneself with the methods of the True Self, it was evident that the other party had surpassed the True Self.
The old man was somewhat amazed by Lin Feng’s experience and then said, “I don’t know about that realm, but I’ve heard people mention that if there is a realm beyond the True Self, it must be the Boundless Dao!” “Boundless Dao?” Lin Feng was astonished at the words.
“Yes, the Great Dao is boundless. One can only pursue it endlessly. We cultivators seek the truth, but what is the truth? Is chaos the truth? How do you know if there is a world beyond chaos? That’s why it’s called the Boundless Dao,” the old man said with a serious tone.
“Moreover, it is said that achieving the Boundless Dao allows one to freely traverse the chaos, even leave the chaos. But what lies beyond the chaos, I do not know. These are ultimately just hearsay.” Then, the old man shook his head and smiled lightly.
“The Dao, boundless?” Lin Feng murmured.
However, he was still confused. Even without considering the seemingly elusive realm of the Boundless Dao, just looking at the present, even if he returned to the divine realm, how could he end the cycle?
Did he have to destroy the divine realm like Qianye Yuan?
But his Dao heart was to protect the divine realm and the human race. If he did that, how could he achieve enlightenment?
Seeing that Lin Feng’s eyes seemed a bit lost, the old man thought he was at a loss for the elusive realm. He couldn’t help but chuckle and say, “Fellow Daoist, don’t think too much. The path of cultivation is long and arduous. We just need to adhere to our original intentions. Keeping the initial heart in mind, the path of cultivation can be steadily advanced.”
Lin Feng was stunned when he heard this.
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng suddenly snapped out of his confusion.
Yes, what he wanted to protect was the divine realm?
No, it was the people in the divine realm. As long as the people in the divine realm were safe, what difference did it make whether the divine realm existed or not?
Lin Feng suddenly became clear-headed and gave a respectful salute to the old man. “I have learned from you!”
“Fellow Daoist is too kind.” The old man also stroked his beard and smiled.
“Fellow Daoist, I still have important matters to attend to. If we have the chance to meet again in the future, let’s discuss the Dao. Now, I must take my leave.” Lin Feng clasped his hands.
Now, he just wanted to return to the divine realm and then use his own methods to end the cycle in the divine realm!
The old man could see that Lin Feng was in a hurry and didn’t say much. After a courteous bow, he watched Lin Feng leave.
Lin Feng directly took a step forward and crossed the endless Chaos towards the divine realm he was sensing.
“You, wait for me!”
In the Divine Realm, Zhou Changqing and others had long returned to the myriad realms. The Divine Realm had already merged with the myriad realms.
The current outer realm battlefield was the Divine Realm world. However, the boundary mountain range had been opened up by Princess Xuanyuan and the human race was unified.
In the second era, when faced with Chi You’s threat and Princess Xuanyuan’s dominance, the human race had no choice but to obey him.
As for the humans on the Blue Planet, Princess Xuanyuan did as she said to Lin Feng. As long as they did not cause trouble, she would not interfere.
However, the human race, combined with the divine race, had fewer than 10 emperor-level powerhouses.
Since the Five Emperors Azure Thearch was not around, Ye Ningxue replaced him. In the second era, only Karsus was an emperor-level expert. In the third era, there was not a single one.
Coupled with Chu Kuangren, Zhong Ya, and Landry, there were only nine emperor-level experts in the entire Divine Realm.
Not to mention the Demon race, not counting the Demon Lord, there were dozens of Demon Lords alone. Therefore, when the divine realm’s restriction formation disappeared, the war was fierce.
But Princess Xuanyuan was indeed worthy of being the leader of the Five Emperors. Leading the people of the divine realm to fight against the Demon race, although they were not winning, they were not retreating either.
However, even so, Princess Xuanyuan felt a bit frustrated.
Because the Demon Lord did not appear, and just these Demon Lords made them deadlock.
Originally, Princess Xuanyuan thought that as an emperor-level expert and a swordsman, she might be able to fight the Demon Master..
