Chapter 91: Glimpse into the past, see the future

Zhou Yan stared at the portal in the void.

It gradually disappeared from everyone's perspective, but in Zhou Yan's own feeling, it was as if he had crossed into a higher-level dimensional space.

Looking around, there is no fixed form. Color, space, shape, matter and energy are constantly flowing, and time is a dimension that intersects with each other.

Zhou Yan didn't look surprised.

This door in the underground palace is naturally not used for traveling through time.

Time and space seem chaotic, but in fact they are one, yet they seem to have a unified continuity and infinite faults.

There are multiple paradoxes.

Therefore, it is not easy to achieve time travel.

Zhou Yan's previous attack on the future, which caused a huge number of Feng Shui nodes to collapse in the future, was also based on his own understanding of the Tao.

We have found points that can be utilized in the natural cycle.

And if one really wants to pull himself forward into the past, the consumption would be enough to drain out countless galaxies.

“But it’s not impossible to use it.”

Zhou Yan looked at the door standing in the void opposite him and muttered to himself.

In Zhou Yan's view, this portal is not a time machine, but a hint and a process on how to become an immortal.

“In the innate realm, one’s own existence has been completely unified from the acquired flesh, blood, energy, matter, and mind.

Then, by imitating the structure of spiritual energy, the existence of the shortcut, the state before all things and before all laws, was achieved.

Practitioners have become logical beings, a phenomenon. "

Of course, this existence phenomenon is still very weak.

Although its essence is very high, there is no significant change in the magnitude. The initial achievement is probably only several times the magnitude of the sun, which is not a leap forward.

However, the potential is extremely high and can grow almost unlimitedly.

But, I want the next qualitative change.
"Time and space, dimension, space, the so-called immortality is the improvement of one's own status. In essence, one extends one's existence to all dimensions.

Then use your own great way to anchor reality and make it one of the structures that operate the world? "

Zhou Yan said thoughtfully.

The innate realm itself is no longer a thing of flesh and blood, and all interactions with reality are reactions produced by the projection of thinking and will.

And its bearing capacity is unlimited.

There is no problem growing from stellar level to constellations, or even higher astronomical units.

But that is only the extent to which thinking can influence.

If you really want to achieve a qualitative change, it is still extremely difficult.

Fortunately, Zhou Yan already had some thoughts and insights about becoming an immortal, and with the inspiration given to him by this door, he immediately had ideas and plans for becoming an immortal.

"To expand one's own state, that is, self-knowledge, the existence called 'Zhou Yan', and to imprint the Tao into the structure of the cosmic cycle, there are many such paths, or even methods, in my opinion."

"It's all up to you to choose from."

“However, it is not so easy to choose a suitable path with sufficient development potential and multi-faceted growth.”

Many thoughts flashed through Zhou Yan's mind.

Laws, the way.

The law of natural cycle.

If one integrates one's own way into it, or even replaces it, refines the great way and makes it a part of oneself, such an immortal will definitely be very powerful.

Even if Zhou Yan traveled through the worlds of the heavens.

But the Tao itself will not be downgraded. Once you have obtained it, you will stay there forever and will never regress. You only need to adapt to the laws of the new world.

However, Zhou Yan seemed to have other ideas.

"If you are equal to the Great Dao and the Law, you can naturally become an immortal and be omnipotent within your own path. However, if you develop outward, you will be subject to certain constraints."

"What if the setting is outside of this?"

Zhou Yan pondered.

"Destiny is not the Tao, nor is it the law or natural cycle. Spiritual energy is the foundation of all things, the things that are in harmony with the Tao at the moment of the birth of the universe."

"Which one should I choose?"

This statement is nothing short of arrogant.

Destiny transcends the avenue and is the most basic logic of a world, which is also the "plot".

Aura is a shortcut between matter, dimension and energy.

Even if you are an immortal or a god, it is almost impossible to obtain one of them.

At this time, Zhou Yan wanted to get them all.

"I have traveled through the heavens, how can I not be a little braver and have a broader vision?"

Zhou Yan muttered to himself.

If he were not still in the stage of cultivation and his realm was only innate, he would want to taste what it feels like to eat up a world.

Of course, this is just a momentary thought.

Call ~
All kinds of distracting thoughts flashed through his mind, and as habit, he subconsciously exhaled a long breath, which rolled up a tide of unknown amount of energy.

Zhou Yan's eyes fell on the door, his expression complicated: "It seems that I am not the only one who wants to spy on the whereabouts of the immortals, but the immortals are also spying on me?"

"In that case, let's meet each other!"

After passing all the instructions and trivial matters to Zhang Chulan, Zhou Yan's strength suddenly contracted and he pushed open the door in front of him.

In just a moment, the countless colorful dimensions around fell silent.

The moment the portal was pushed open, a conceptual unlimited superposition was carried out, causing the space to warp infinitely.

Then, the warp of time occurred.

"I can't pass it myself, but the thought can still be passed"

Zhou Yan's eyes moved, and a figure separated and stepped into the "door".

Before my eyes, the scene changed.

The land was covered with yellow sand, with old and withered trees, and nearly a hundred extraordinary masters were confronting each other.

A girl with long hair falling down, with a distracted look and a gleam of brilliance.

One of them was wearing a Taoist robe with a loose look on his face. His eyes moved slightly, and he had a majestic aura. Facing the long-haired man who was walking slowly towards him, he just rolled up his sleeves slightly.

boom!
With just one slap, the long-haired man was pressed to the ground.

"Oh, that's good."

Zhou Yan took one step at a time, and the time around him kept going backwards. When he saw this scene, his mind was connected, and he immediately knew what time it was.

The Jiashen Rebellion, several years ago.

Zhang Zhiwei of Tianshi Mansion, and the head of Quanxing Sect, Wu Gensheng. At this moment, Zhang Zhiwei was ready to kill Wu Gensheng, but Zhou Yan just took a look and did not stay any longer.

"Ok?"

After knocking Wu Gensheng to the ground, Zhang Zhiwei was about to kill him again, but before the old Taoist priest could say anything, he looked up as if he had sensed something.

Huhu~
There was only the sound of the wind.

Time passed again, the Republic of China, wars, and feudal dynasties were all regressing step by step, and the surrounding environment was becoming faster and faster.

Zhou Yan naturally did not travel through time.

It is just projecting its own will, compressing and replicating the existence of this door, creating the concept of pseudo-infinity, collapsing space, and leveraging the continuity of time.

Then, I briefly saw the past.

Ta-da-da!
A group of white horses were walking on a narrow road.

There are flowers and plants growing everywhere. With just a quick glance, you can see the forest not far away. The green ocean stretches on and seems to have no end.

Two tall horses were in front.

After that, there was a coachman leading the horse with a rope, and further back was a carriage covered with decorative carvings, inside which two people were talking.

“The world is so vast, and heroes from all nations have emerged.

We have no way to serve our country, but we have a lot of wealth. Since you are willing to learn Taoism and have great talent, I will give it a try and spend some of my wealth to see if the immortal is willing to take you in. "

Inside the carriage, a middle-aged man in a brown robe sighed.

Although there have been no large-scale wars these days, it is just that we have just fought a few wars and need to recuperate.

Although they are businessmen, they have a keen sense of smell.

Naturally noticed the problem.

He couldn't give up his family business, as he still had to take care of the livelihoods of countless clansmen, but he could spend some money and send his son away.

"Son, remember, the most powerful person in this world is not a king, an army, a scholar, or a knight."

"It is an existence called immortal."

The brown-robed man pointed to the distance and said, "Immortals, only those who have become immortals are the key to whether a country can survive."

"This time, the one on the Immortal Mountain wants to recruit disciples and select those who are destined to be his disciples. This time you just happened to catch up, so you must be very careful. Do you understand?"

"Yes, father."

Opposite the man in brown robe was a child who was about ten years old.

His voice was not soft but firm, and he answered the father's questions word by word in a sonorous and powerful manner.

"Good, keep up your attitude!"

Hearing this, the man in brown robe nodded with satisfaction and ordered the coachman to go faster, passing through the road that looked like a wilderness.

Three big words can be vaguely seen on the road sign.

Kunlun Mountains.

"The Tao is nameless, but it is given a name. The heaven and earth are natural, and they are free and inaction."

The top of Kunlun Mountain is covered with snow.

Among them was a middle-aged man dressed in Taoist robes, sitting cross-legged casually on the bluestone, slowly explaining the great Dao and the principles of cultivation.

All around me are flowers, birds, fish, insects, pedestrians and animals.

Even the plants and the tiniest particles floating in the air were slowly moving, as if "expressing" their opinions.

With the mighty sound, all things gain wisdom and intelligence, seeking the Tao!
After an unknown amount of time, the sermon slowly came to an end.

The middle-aged Taoist priest did not dismiss the audience as usual, but sighed and said:
"Come on, sit down."

The sound came slowly, as if a road was approaching.

On the top of the mountain, all the students turned their heads curiously, looking towards the foot of the mountain inquiringly, distinguishing one figure after another.

Ta-da!

A series of footsteps sounded.

Zhou Yan's figure gradually became solid, his will was projected from the future to the past, and step by step, he walked from the foot of the mountain to the top.

He looked over the crowd of students listening to the lecture.

He looked directly at the Taoist priest who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the crowd.

"Dharma body, this is an immortal, no, it is even more powerful than an immortal. Its state seems to have been freed from the Great Dao and is one with the Dao!"

The one who 'spoke' was a bird.

He turned his palm-sized head to the side and looked at Zhou Yan who was rushing over, his expression full of curiosity.

A bird actually pointed out Zhou Yan's current condition in one go. It was truly terrifying.

The other people also looked surprised.

"sit."

The middle-aged Taoist extended his right palm slightly and then spoke.

"You knew I would come, didn't you?"

Zhou Yanke followed his master's wishes and was not surprised. He was well prepared. He fell behind and looked meaningfully at the uncrowned Taoist in front of him:
"The First Cause of All Realms, How Great"

As his eyes opened and closed, Zhou Yan finally understood why in this world of one person, which should have been an ordinary place, there appeared a series of immeasurable question marks.

“The Tao is here, neither increasing nor decreasing.”

The middle-aged man nodded imperceptibly, and said with a gentle expression: "Your behavior is good. If we are destined to meet, we will meet in the future."

"it is good."

Zhou Yan nodded and agreed.

He has his own way, so he naturally won't pursue the way of others.

A thought flashed through his mind, and a book turned from nothingness into reality, appearing in Zhou Yan's mind, and a virtual light curtain emerged.

[The 'story' has been completed, and the time travel function has been charged. ]

[Do you want to start traveling through the world? ]

"Prepare to cross."

Zhou Yan felt a little relieved.

He has already thought of the next step in his cultivation, how to make the most of the new world that is coming to achieve his path to immortality.

"The road ahead is long and arduous. See you someday."

The middle-aged Taoist slowly closed his eyes.

Zhou Yan's breath also disappeared completely from between heaven and earth.
