Episode 64: The Golden Gate of Heaven, Ancient Totem, Pangu!
The ancient and mysterious Golden Temple, buried countless gods and demons of the past, seems to be related to the most core secret of the world of reincarnation. The Great Yu Ding, which was unintentionally obtained, also seems to be far from being as simple as it appears on the surface, hiding secrets that are unknown to people behind it.
The sudden and chaotic flood that had appeared out of nowhere suddenly vanished into thin air, as if it had evaporated. The entire golden ancient temple was quiet and still, with a faint mist lingering in the air. Xiao Yunfei slowly came back to his senses, only to be shocked to discover that he was no longer in his original position. In front of him, a massive gate had appeared!
In front of the portal, there were dozens of ancient demon corpses lying horizontally and vertically. These ancient demons were apparently much stronger than those in the great hall just now. There was only a faint energy fluctuation, but it made Xiao Yunfei feel extremely frightened. These people may have already reached the limit of their demonic powers!
Xiao Yunfei swallowed his saliva, carefully avoiding the divine demon's body, and stepped forward. It was only then that he noticed through the faintly fluctuating energy that among the scattered divine demon corpses were some white bones with a crystalline luster, different from those in the great hall. There were over a dozen such skeletons here, which had not turned to dust, indicating their extraordinary nature. Xiao Yunfei walked forward and gently tapped on them, causing the white bones to emit a series of clear, metallic sounds, like gold or stone. One could imagine how powerful this ancient divine demon must have been when it was alive!
Standing amidst the corpses of gods and demons, Xiao Yunfei looked around in a daze. All around him were vividly lifelike corpses of gods and demons. In the silence, there was an endless eerie atmosphere, and the most eerie thing was that among them, one corpse of a god had its left half still intact, while the other half had already turned into white bones...
The battle here was apparently even more intense, and the strength of these ancient gods and demons was beyond imagination. It seemed that the enemy could no longer kill them with one blow. From the remaining bodies and skeletons of the gods and demons, various wounds could be clearly seen, which were not uniform.
There were a dozen or so divine demon corpses, each with writing next to them. Xia Yunfei was eager to know what terrible changes had occurred here thousands of years ago. He carefully examined each one, but found that almost all the messages left behind were vague and difficult to understand. Among them, the final words of the Eastern Great Witch God made Xia Yunfei stare blankly for a long time after reading them:
"I wish to break through the cycle of reincarnation, slaughter countless gods and demons, but alas, the path to divinity is long and distant, unreachable...... Alas! Alas! Separated by a single gate, what a pity! What a pity!"
This is a kind of heroic spirit, but also a kind of helplessness, and even more a kind of despair. To have reached such a realm in terms of strength is absolutely earth-shattering, unfortunately, he ultimately still stopped at this point, unable to break through the cycle of reincarnation, completely hopeless. These few sentences fully express regret and desolation.
"The power of this witch god is probably already completely beyond the realm of ancient gods and demons!"
Xiao Yunfei's gaze was fixed on his palm, that arm had actually inserted into the ground of the Golden Ancient Temple. This was the first ancient demon Xiao Yunfei had seen since entering the Golden Ancient Temple that could bring damage to it. His terror was unimaginable!
Looking around, sizing up the nearly hundred corpses of gods and demons in front of the giant gate, Xiao Yunfei felt infinite emotion in his heart. He now thoroughly understood the difficulty and danger of breaking through the Great Dao Wheel!
Crossing over the corpses of gods and demons, he arrived in front of that enormous gate. Xiao Yunfei's heart was shaken. On the golden gate, a robust man with a large axe in hand was painted, looking up at the endless void, making a chopping motion!
"Pangu opens the sky!"
"Pangu opens the sky!"
At this moment, Xiao Yunfei's heart was shaken. He was very familiar with the legend of Pangu opening up the sky and earth, but he never thought that he would see this ancient totem in this place!
She cast a sidelong glance, and immediately, Xiao Yunfei saw the few lines of stone carvings on the side of the gate:
"Heaven and earth were like a chicken egg, Pangu was born within. 18,000 years passed, heaven and earth opened up, the clear became heaven, the murky became earth. Pangu was in between, changing nine times a day, divine in heaven, sacred on earth. Heaven rose one zhang each day, earth thickened one zhang each day, Pangu grew one zhang each day, thus for 18,000 years. The height of heaven reached its extreme, the depth of earth reached its extreme, Pangu's length reached its extreme. Afterwards there were the Three Sovereigns. Numbers started from one, established on three, formed on five, flourished on seven, settled on nine, therefore heaven is 90,000 li away from earth."
"The weather is overcast, and the sprouts begin to grow. Then, the heaven and earth are divided, and the universe is established. The yin and yang are awakened, and the primordial energy is distributed. This gives birth to the harmony of the middle, which is human. First born was Pangu. At death, his body transformed. His breath became wind and clouds. His voice became thunder. His left eye became the sun. His right eye became the moon. His four limbs and five organs became the four extremes and five peaks. His blood became rivers. His veins became roads. His flesh became fields and land. His hair became stars. His skin became grass and trees. His teeth and bones became gold and stone. His essence became pearls and jade. His sweat became rain and dew. The insects on his body, due to the wind's influence, transformed into the common people."
That was the myth that had been passed down in the deepest part of the blood, Xiao Yunfeng looked at the ancient characters on the stone gate, majestic and awe-inspiring, as if they were about to burst out and fly away.
Xiao Yunfei took a deep breath, and finally reached out to press his hand on the large gate. The ancient gate trembled slightly, as if an infinite force was surging and roaring.
"Roar!"
A low, muffled roar echoed through the silent space, causing Xiao Yunfei's body to tremble and involuntarily take a step back, warily eyeing the stone gate before him.
The ancient totem gradually faded away, and on the gate, a black and white rainbow light slowly emerged, transforming into a pair of yin-yang fish with their heads and tails connected, forming a large Tai Chi diagram, radiating brilliant light that flashed and fluttered.
"Boom!"
A sound like thunderous waves rolled in, Xiao Yunfei's body surged with energy, yet he still felt unable to withstand it, being compressed and suffocated by threads of energy that almost made him breathless.
The Taiji diagram alternates between black and white, slowly rotating. In the gate of yin, a dark light shines like a pillar, rushing forward. In the gate of yang, a bright light flickers, piercing through.
Black and white in sharp contrast, the radiance of life and death intermingled, yin and yang energies swirling, covering the sky and earth, issuing a rumbling sound, like the ocean's waves crashing, or thunderclaps shaking the nine heavens and ten lands.
Taiji was first formed, life and death were opposed, the two qi of yin and yang were confused, this collision was extremely terrible, it could give birth to all things, but also make heaven and earth desolate.
Xiao Yunfei was caught in the middle, feeling a wave of dizziness and blurred vision. His body seemed to be torn apart by countless powerful hands, and even his indestructible physique, forged through intense training, appeared pale and powerless at this moment!
The Golden Ancient Temple was not a place where someone like him could come, even if it was just a slight fluctuation in energy, I don't know if Xiao Yunfei could bear it.
Bang!
As if from the distant ancient chaos, before the heaven and earth were opened, the Yu Ding treasure tripod burst out of the inner heaven and earth again, standing in front of the gate. Although it was simple and unadorned, it was majestic like a heavy mountain. In an instant, the pre-heavenly yin-yang energy that had been surging and rolling previously suddenly disappeared completely.
"What is this Great Yu's precious tripod?!"
Xiao Yunfei couldn't help but open his mouth wide again, and once more probed the stable and unshakeable Great Yu Ding within the Inner Heaven and Earth. He felt extremely shocked, and his eyes shone with an unusual light.
After a long time, when all the fluctuations had stopped and everything was calm, the Great Yu Ding returned to his body. After a slight hesitation, he couldn't help but shake his head and continue walking forward with large strides.
As his hand pressed against the golden gate, in that instant, a bloody atmosphere like the Forest of Death rushed towards him. At this moment, before Xiao Yunfei's eyes, he saw pieces of terrifying mountains and seas of blood, countless skeletons and spirits of the dead, thousands upon thousands, and he was like a small boat in a stormy sea, which could be capsized at any time.
"No one can stop me from moving forward!"
Xiao Yunfei let out a loud roar in his heart, his face revealing an unyielding expression, as he suddenly burst forth with energy and pushed open the golden giant door before him!
