Choose a day to soar

Xu Ying invited the body of Emperor Haotian back to the emperor's coffin, offered incense and paid homage, and then left in a hurry.

Not long after, he summoned the people in charge of the Earthly Immortal Realm and the Celestial Immortal Realm, and gave an overview of the matter, saying: "Now the only way to resolve the danger of the front court is to make a covenant with the other party. The longer the delay, the more The more beneficial it is to us. After making an agreement with the other party, you can relax and focus on cultivating the new way."

Yuan Weiyang said: "We must also beware of fraud in the other party's covenant."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded. The distant ancestor said: "The covenant is just a piece of paper and has no effect. Any oath you make can be violated. If the other party finds out that the Master of Tongtian Sword is not around, they will fall out of control. This matter should not be hidden for too long."

As long as the owner of the ruins walks out of the ruins and asks anyone casually, he will know that the master of Tongtian Sword is not in the Three Realms, so he can be easily exposed.

Waste Qingxuan said: "So, is there any oath that will cause great harm if broken?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Xu Ying's heart moved slightly and he summoned Shi Tianyang. Shi Tianyang said: "I know that there is such a kind of oath on the other side. You can swear it to the master of the avenue. As long as the master of the avenue is not dead, if the other party violates the oath, it can be fulfilled. .”

Xu Ying asked: "Why is this?"

Shi Tianyang said: "The existence of the Dao Master realm is already the master of the Dao. If you swear to him, you will follow the Dao. If you violate the oath, the Dao in the Dao Master will have twists and turns, and the Dao in his body will restore itself naturally. Then kill the oathbreaker. Even the Immortal True King would not dare to break such an oath."

Ancestor God said: "Is the Master of the Tongtian Sword the Master of the Great Dao?"

Shi Tianyang shook his head and said: "Not as far as I know. The master of the avenue is the co-master of the avenue. How can it be achieved casually? However, Taoist Tongtian has a very famous name on the other side. The child cries at night and says his name. I don’t dare to cry anymore.”

Everyone looked at each other.

Ancestor God said: "If the other party swears to the Master of the Tongtian Sword, and we swear to the bones of the Great Dao Master of the Yuan Realm, wouldn't it mean that the other party can break the oath, and if we break the oath, we will die? This idea cannot be done."

Xu Ying asked: "Is there a great master on the other side?"

Shi Tianyang said: "There are rumors, but I have never seen him and I don't know his name."

Xu Ying frowned slightly, and after a moment, he said, "Are there any other oaths?"

"There is also the oath of cause and effect. If you violate the oath of cause and effect, your life will be taken away by cause and effect, and you will often die unexpectedly. However, if you meet someone who practices the path of cause and effect, you will be transferred to cause and effect, or someone who jumps out of cause and effect, you do not need to abide by it. You can also jump into the sea of ​​chaos to wash away the cause and effect."

Shi Tianyang said, "There are also the Hongmeng Oath, the Reincarnation Oath, the Life Oath, the Chaos Oath, etc., which are all restricted by the Dao and swear by the Dao. If you encounter someone who is proficient in this Dao, they will be easily broken or even passed on."

Xu Ying hesitated for a moment. The master of Tongtian Sword must not have attained the Dao Master. If the oath is not valid and has no binding force on the other party, wouldn't it only be effective on one's own side?

Yuan Weiyang asked: "Does the Dao Master's oath require the Dao Master to be present in person?"

Shi Tianyang shook his head and said: "No need. You only need to recite the name of the master of the avenue, and his avenue will be sensed."

Yuan Weiyang said to Xu: "The last chapter of the Hunyuan Dongyuan Pijie Sutra contains the words Lord of Chaos, why not let the other party swear to the Lord of Chaos."

Xu Ying hesitated for a moment and said, "Is there such a Dao Master as Chaos Lord?"

Yuan Weiyang smiled and said: "We don't know, and the other party may not know either. The more the other party doesn't know, the less they dare to violate it."

Xu Ying thought about it and found that it did make some sense.

More than ten days later, the Cuiyan Tower boat carried ten people including Xu Ying, Shengzun, Ancestral God, Yuanzu, Ming Dao Emperor, Yuan Weiyang, Waste Qingxuan, Immortal Emperor Xu Jing, etc., and arrived at the human world and sailed into the Yuanjie universe. among the ruins.

Xu Ying presented Shi Tianyang's head, and Min Bo opened the box and looked at it. Sure enough, it was the head of Shi Tianyang, the messenger from the other side, with his essence and essence still inside.

"Fellow Daoist Xu really trusts people!" Min Bo praised.

The two sides formally swore an alliance under the bones of the master of Yuanjie Avenue, stipulating that the scope of Yuanjie's avenue should not exceed the current territory, that the three realms should not drive away the survivors of Yuanjie, and that the three realms and Yuanjie would jointly fight against the other side, etc.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, the ten of you can swear an oath on the bones of the Taoist Master." Min Bo obviously knew something about the oath of the Taoist Master and said to Xu.

Xu Ying smiled and said: "Min Bo, you ten elders can swear an oath to the Chaos Lord."

When Min Bo heard this, his expression changed drastically, and the expressions of the other nine elders behind him also changed.

Seeing this, Xu Ying was suspicious: "Is there really a Chaos Lord in this Chaos Sea? Judging from the faces of these guys, they must have heard of the Chaos Lord!"

Min Bo chuckled and said: "Fellow Daoist Xu, why don't you swear to the Lord of Tongtian Sword? The Lord of Chaos is just an illusory legend and may not exist. The Lord of Tongtian Sword actually exists, so why put your oath on a falsehood?" superior?"

Xu Ying smiled slightly and said leisurely: "Who said the Chaos Lord is a legend?"

Min Bo felt awe-struck in his heart: "He really knows the master of chaos!"

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and he suddenly laughed and said: "How about this, you don't need to swear to the Lord of Avenue, we both swear to the Lord of Chaos. If we violate the oath, we will turn into chaos and die! How about it?"

Xu Ying smiled and said, "That's exactly what I meant."

So everyone divided into two rows, each holding incense and solemnly swearing an oath to the Lord of Chaos.

"Lord Chaos, please listen to your disciples Xu Ying, Min Bo, Yuan Yu, and Wu Zhenzi..."

Everyone announced their names and said the content of their oaths. The smoke from the sticks of incense they held floated in the air and suddenly disappeared!

It was as if there was an extremely ancient being in the dark that sensed their oaths and absorbed their incense!

Everyone who took the oath felt a creepy feeling. They felt that if they broke the oath, they would definitely die!

Everyone was sweating coldly, and when the incense burned out, suddenly there was a bell ringing in everyone's ears, which lingered for a long time.

"There really is a Chaos Lord in the Sea of ​​Chaos!"

After the two sides formed an alliance, the tense situation between the two sides calmed down. Xu Ying and others sat down with Min Bo and others in a peaceful manner.

Min Bo smiled and said: "We are in a state of disaster. We are about to die soon. We didn't plan to live long. We just wanted to continue the civilization of our Yuan Realm. Could you please do something convenient and choose some people with smart talents? Come to my Yuanjie, and my Yuanjie will teach you carefully."

Xu Ying said: "What's so difficult about this? Elder, don't worry, I will arrange for someone to come."

Min Bo smiled and said: "I hope they are ordinary people with no cultivation experience."

Xu Ying agreed and said, "Can we also learn Taoism from the Yuan Realm?"

Min Bo hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm stingy, but it's because of the catastrophe that we have to leave the inheritance of the Yuan Realm. Otherwise, when the catastrophe strikes, the civilization of the Yuan Realm will turn into nothing."

Xu Ying asked: "Elder, I often hear about calamity, but my knowledge is limited. What is calamity?"

Min Bo said: "The source of the flood is opened, the universe is born, and it is born and destroyed. This is the destiny. When the source of the flood is extinguished, where will the creatures in the universe go? Where will the great path that we monks practice go? , and where does he return? This is a calamity, no one, from ordinary people to immortal Taoists, can escape."

Xu Ying was shocked and said: "The Great Dao Master can't escape?"

Min Bo said: "Unless you have the ability to resist the destruction of the universe, or the ability to break the chaos, you can escape. Our Yuanjie universe has come to an end, all the ways are destroyed, the heaven and the earth are destroyed, the universe is swallowed by the sea of ​​chaos, and only we old people are left. Weak and sick.”

He shook his head and said: "We have already made a Taoist oath, so I will not hide it from you. Although the Taoist has tried his best to open up the source of the flood, it is also related to the disaster. The misfortune has consumed the Taoist's strength. Cultivation, one catastrophe will fail, and another catastrophe will come, until you are wiped out. The master of the avenue, he has probably..."

He did not continue.

"The Grand Master is dead?" Xu Ying and others were stunned.

Wu Zhenzi, Guo Daozi and others looked proud and said with a smile: "You have been deceived by us. That day we sacrificed the bones of the Dao Master and burst out the power. It was not the Dao Lord who took the initiative to burst out the power. But now the Chaos Oath has been completed , you have no way to regret it.”

Xu Ying, Yuan Weiyang, Shengzun and others looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Xu Ying smiled and said, "I'll let you guys take advantage of this."

Min Bo saw his magnanimity, but he also admired him very much and said: "Fellow Taoist Xu has a broad mind and will definitely achieve great achievements. We are also looking for a place to live, so we have no choice but to take advantage of you."

He paused and continued: "This calamity is bound to destroy everything in the Yuan Realm. If there is anything that has not been destroyed, it will come back. The calamity is getting stronger every time. We rely on the blessing of Lord Dao, With the support of Hongyuan Core, we have been hiding for hundreds of millions of years. Now hiding in the Three Realms, I don’t know how much longer we can last. When the bones of Dao Lord are wiped out, I’m afraid we will be completely wiped out. "

Xu Ying asked: "What is the appearance of the disaster?"

Min Bo said: "First the stars extinguish, all the ways wither and disintegrate, and then the universe collapses, and everything returns to chaos. For those of us who practice Taoism, our own Taoism begins to decay, disintegrate. Those who entrust their Taoism to heaven and earth, heaven and earth The moment it shattered, it also shattered into pieces.”

Wu Zhenzi said: "Those who entrusted the great road to themselves will suffer their own calamity. The great road will rot, and the whole person will rot and disappear. There are also some who try to refine treasures to protect themselves and rush out of the universe and enter the sea of ​​chaos to escape. The calamity will also befall them. It will attack along the Sea of ​​Chaos, destroying the ship and killing people, and completely dissipate.”

Min Bo said: "Even if you escape to other universes, you won't be able to do it. You will be overtaken by fate. Often the body dies and the Tao disappears, and the Tao collapses in just an instant. This is a big cause and effect. No matter what method you use to escape, even if you are reincarnated , even if you escape to other universes, even if you reincarnate hundreds of millions of times, even if you take away your body hundreds of millions of times, misfortune will always catch up with you and completely destroy you!"

Just as he said this, the skeleton of the Avenue Master suddenly made a soft clicking sound, and a crack appeared on the surface of the skeleton.

The expressions of Min Bo and others changed slightly, and they saw the sky fluttering, and a cloud of ash falling. That was when the skeleton of the avenue master suffered a catastrophic attack, and part of his avenue turned into ashes.

Fortunately, this snowstorm did not last long and stopped on its own.

Xu Ying's scalp was numb. This kind of disaster could not be seen or touched. There was no way to guard against it, no way to resist it, and no one knew where it came from!

Guo Daozi said: "The Three Realms universe is only 100 million years old, and it is still a long time before the disaster breaks out. Don't worry about this."

Min Bo said: "But this is a catastrophe that every ascetic will encounter. For example, those scum on the other side have come up with various ways to avoid the catastrophe and created different techniques."

Xu Ying's heart moved slightly and he looked towards Yuan Weiyang, just as Yuan Weiyang was also looking this way.

The two of them thought of the Hunyuan Dongyuan Preparing Tribulation Sutra at the same time.

The last chapter of the Sutra on Preventing Tribulations is probably the deduction made by the great masters on the other side on how to prevent tribulations!

"No wonder we can't understand the last article. It turns out that the last article really teaches people how to avoid disasters!" Xu Ying thought to himself.

The Holy Lord asked: "So, can anyone survive the disaster?"

Min Bo shook his head and said: "I don't know about this either. However, the Dao Master once said that maybe if you go one step further in the realm of the Dao Master and practice to the end of the Dao, you might be able to survive the disaster. But whether there is an eleventh level of Dao Even he doesn’t know about the realm. The Taoist structure of our Yuan Realm can only be cultivated to the level of the Taoist Lord, and cannot go any further."

Emperor Ming Dao felt unwilling and asked: "What is the structure of the other side? Can it go further?"

Min Bo sneered and said: "The other side is indeed very strong, and there are people in the realm of the Great Dao Master, but its structure may not surpass the Yuan Realm. They may not be able to understand the eleventh level of the Dao!"

Yuan Weiyang looked at Xu Ying, Xu Ying understood what she meant and nodded lightly. Yuan Weiyang then took out a deciphered Scripture of Preventing Tribulation, placed it in front of Min Bo and others, and said: "This is a ninth-level Dao realm technique that flowed out from the other side. The last chapter is about how to ward off tribulation."

Min Bo took it and looked through it. He saw that the scriptures were written in runes and he couldn't understand them at all.

Yuan Weiyang recited it softly in Taoist language. This last exercise was extremely obscure. Even if the various words and sentences were read in Taoist language, it would be awkward to read, and it would make people feel dizzy.

However, Min Bo and others became more and more frightened as they listened. When Yuan Weiyang recited it once, Min Bo looked solemn. After a while, he said: "An immortal skill actually started to dabble in preventing calamities, which shows the achievements of Taoism on the other side." , indeed above the Yuan Realm. Since you have given these mysterious skills to each other, we cannot but give back."

He turned his head and said a few words, and Guo Daozi immediately stood up and hurried away.

After a while, Guo Daozi took out a golden book and handed it to Min Bo. Min Bo gently unfolded the golden book, and saw that the words in the golden book were ancient and mysterious, like birds and insects flying around.

However, many of the words have been damaged and cannot be read.

"This is the Immortal Golden Book left by the Great Dao Master, which records his Immortal Scripture of Hundong."

Min Bo pushed the golden book in front of Xu Ying and said, "We can no longer protect the golden book. If the golden book is left here, it will be destroyed by disaster. Xu Daoyou can take it and study it."

Xu Ying was surprised and happy. He put away the Immortal Gold Book and said, "Thank you all fellow Taoists."

The distant ancestor said: "We don't recognize any of the characters in your scriptures."

Min Bo smiled and said: "The Great Master once said that all roads lead to the same destination. If you read the golden book he wrote word by word, you won't be able to learn the essence at all. Only by understanding it as the Tao can you obtain the immortal road. Everyone."

He looked around, his eyes swept across the faces of Xu Ying and others, and said: "If you want to achieve immortality, you must read this sutra!"
