Chapter 317: Enlightenment in a Dream
Gu Qingyuan looked at the large and small pictures in front of him. These were the pictures sent by the Clairvoyance space detection system. The Clairvoyance giant structure located on the side of the Morning Star Guanghan Palace was high above and detected information from all over Da Chong. Its own method of breaking the law and detecting the array module were enough to open up the terrain covered by the cultivators' array.

He looked at the present Jinzhou City. As the giant structure detector stretched out, Gu Qingyuan could see Gu Chen with a conflicted look on his face near the evil dragon.

He moved his finger, erased the picture, and turned to another image. He stretched out two fingers, and the whole Da Chong came into view. The current Da Chong could be said to be in a mess.

Countless strange creatures were given birth to, including the drowned spring where a baby girl was abandoned, with waves rolling and carrying resentment into the river, breaking down the riverbank and dam. There was a beheading platform where countless people were beheaded, gushing out headless evil spirits. There was a very dark and evil place where iron-clad zombies emerged and chose their prey to devour.

The vast and boundless resentment, negative energy, ghost energy and the calamity of disasters floated up to the sky, like wisps of wolf smoke dotting every corner of Da Chong.

Gu Qingyuan remained indifferent as he looked at the tragic scenes in the world, even though he was the one who pushed this situation forward. He spread the calamity, brought down the filth and evil, and ensnared all living beings. All intelligent creatures were born with sin and would suffer from the calamity!

"A bunch of weirdos."

He muttered to himself as he watched a woman being pounced on and eaten up by a ghost. After the ghost left, leaving a mess behind, a mutilated woman stood up on the broken bones. Her long hair hung down to her shoulders, covering her face. She screamed “Pain, pain, pain” and turned around to wander away, looking for the scent of life.

Gu Qingyuan originally thought that the strange phenomena in this world were the work of heaven and earth, but after he deconstructed many strange immortals and Buddhas, he discovered that all the creatures in this world, whether weird, strange, evil, demons, immortals, Buddhas, or humans, were actually of the same origin.

Due to the unique reincarnation of this place, the three corpses and seven insects gather and disperse, creating countless living beings. Gu Qingyuan originally thought that the three corpses and seven insects were a synonym for the three souls and seven spirits, but he soon discovered that he was wrong, very wrong.

The Three Corpses and Seven Insects are the creatures destined by heaven in this world. The so-called immortals, Buddhas, humans and animals are nothing but the aggregation of the Three Corpses and Seven Insects. When they are scattered, they are corpses and insects. When they are gathered together, they become humans and immortals!
The human form of the immortals and Buddhas is just a disguise, and the local creatures are born with a hint of weirdness and devilishness. It is not to say that everyone is evil, but most of them are born with evil roots. Only those who have a transcendent mind and have not fallen into depravity can have good thoughts, while everyone else is muddle-headed.

Compared with people in other realms, people in Yin Jie have only a little more weirdness. A slight difference will lead to a huge mistake. People are not human. Even if they have a human skin, it is just a fake. All living things in the world are born and die, but only the three corpses and seven insects are immortal. This is the manifestation of immortality.

Gu Qingyuan opened his hands, and a wisp of gauze appeared. Then it dispersed and turned into countless small insects wandering around. After a while, they became still and turned back into gauze.

"The Buddha saw 48,000 insects in a bowl of water. Now, there are more than 48,000 insects in this thin gauze."

He spoke, then put away the veil and stood up.

"it's time."

Gu Qingyuan looked at the floating calamity energy that spread in all directions, seeping into it through invisible gaps, and had no idea where it went.

He slowly raised his hand, and the whole world seemed to shake, the calamity energy surged faster and more violently, and finally, under the communication of the calamity energy, an imperceptible gap was opened, and Gu Qingyuan's figure disappeared.

The sound of rolling waves rang in his ears, and Gu Qingyuan looked up. In front of him was a vast black river with no end in sight. The river bank was made of piled up dark soil, and there were countless fish swimming in the black river. As the waves shuttled through it, from time to time, strange figures overturned in the river, and disappeared without a trace when a wave hit them.

The Black River has been flowing for who knows how long, its waves beating against the banks, winding its way endlessly, never stopping, never resting.

Gu Qingyuan picked up a piece of Yin soil, and a flash of light appeared in his hand. The Yin soil turned into countless flying insects and scattered. After a while, it gathered again and turned back into a piece of soil. Not only this Yin soil, but also the black river and the fish swimming in the river were weird. Everything here was transformed by the three corpses and seven insects, but compared with the outside world, the flying insects here were more transparent, not as black and gray as those in the outside world.

Gu Qingyuan placed one hand behind his waist and moved forward, as if he could not see the surging black river. He took a step forward, and the black river was split apart by an invisible force, revealing a riverbed covered in mud, with piles of bones and blood and flesh.

The next second, Gu Qingyuan had arrived at the source of the Black River. The Yin corpse at the source of the Black River strangely turned into bursts of black smoke and drifted away before he landed, instead of turning into flying insects.

It is said that it is difficult for a ghost to become a saint after ten thousand calamities, let alone this half-baked product of evil spirits. Gu Qingyuan does not even need to release his aura. Just standing here is like the sun across the sky, illuminating one area and sweeping away all the dust.

The source of the Black River is a small piece of dark land with strange mountains and rocks on it, which seem to be able to eat people. He took a glance and something suddenly appeared in his hand. It was a clay doll. Gu Qingyuan gently threw the clay doll out. The clay doll fell to the ground and embedded in the soil without any unusual signs.

This was not Gu Qingyuan's destination, but just a place he passed by. He swept out his powerful spiritual sense, and his body sank and disappeared.

When he reappeared, there was a white field in front of him. It was called white field, but in fact there was no concept of color here. It was just nothingness, void. It was just not as pitch black as ordinary people imagined. Instead, the void condensed into a white color.

That surging black river is actually the Yin River, which spews out countless Yin evil spirits every day, creating countless Yin insects that circulate in the world, temporarily taking over the role of reincarnation.

And this white space is the origin of this world, the source of creation, and the place of Tao.

This world was created by a dream of Wandao Tianzun, the ancestor of Qi. No matter whether it is living beings, earth and stones, or yin and yang energies, they were all created in a dream.

There are many and varied methods of spiritual practice in the world, with countless strange ways and extraordinary creations. For example, the method of attaining the Tao through great aspirations is actually a method of borrowing money.

Make a great wish, overdraw the future, reflect your own cultivation at the downstream of the timeline onto your present self, borrow the realm out of thin air, and thus achieve enlightenment.

As the saying goes, if you borrow, you must repay. If you borrow, you must repay. The principal and interest generated require you to make a great wish to repay. If your wish is not fulfilled, it is normal to leave with nothing on the due date.

This method is suitable for monks with a solid foundation. If he has no capital, no one will be willing to lend to him, and in the end it will still be a bad debt, a dead debt, or a bad debt.

Of course, there are also those who do not repay their loans. They make great wishes and rely on the strength of the loans. They drag their feet and refuse to repay the loans despite the distant collection date, which eventually turns the loans into a revolving bad debt. Or they simply overturn the table and tear up the account book, just like the fire dragon burning the warehouse or the ghost soldiers borrowing food, and all of them are written off.

For example, there were so many bad accounts in the Journey to the West, which were tangled into a mess, so we had to wait for the arrival of the immortal who could settle the accounts and the saint who could clear the accounts, Monkey King.

From the Dragon Palace to the Underworld, from the Underworld to the Tushita Palace, then to the Lingxiao Palace, the Great Leiyin, so many tricks in the Book of Life and Death, the dealings between the gods, the operation of elixirs, were pinned on the head of the Great Sage, so that he lived up to the title of the Immortal who settled the accounts.

And in this world, the Qi Ancestor Wan Dao Tian Zun practices the method of attaining enlightenment in a dream. One dream creates the heaven and earth, and one dream determines water and fire. One attains enlightenment in a dream and is free and happy.
