This primordial world is not serious!

Chapter 556 - 367: Xuanqing: I Shall Become the Supreme Patriarch! (Triple-Length, 9k Words, Bonus Update 3)

Xuanqing, at this moment, remarkably revealed the Method of Certification for the "Taiyi" Realm, the most mysterious and critical among the Five Great Inborn!

Upon hearing this, "Luo Pangu's" body couldn't help but tremble slightly, with a monstrous wave surging in his demon consciousness.

He deeply gazed at "The Three Pure Ones as Pangu," understanding within his heart.

Xuanqing's action was not only to elucidate his own Dao but also to awaken him.

"So that's it..."

Luo Hou murmured, his eyes flickering with the light of enlightenment and contemplation.

"I see you three as one body, clear and turbid converging, yin and yang mutually assisting, evolving into the true form of Pangu."

"Primordial opens, Dao Virtue carries, Spiritual Treasure concludes, these three cycle endlessly, endlessly, both opposing and uniting, without beginning or end, not falling into silence, not stagnant in eternity—this is one manifestation of the true intent of 'Yi'?"

"Using this as a foundation, seeking certification of all Dao in the emptiness, nurturing the eternal God within the direct void, indeed is a bright Dao leading to Taiyi."

His tone was filled with admiration for the Dao of The Three Pure Ones.

But immediately, the tone shifted sharply, the arrogance and confidence belonging to the Demon Ancestor once again unmistakably revealed: "However, this is your path, the path of The Three Pure Ones United, evolving the Righteous Pangu."

"I, Luo Hou, still want to traverse my own path!"

Within "The Three Pure Ones as Pangu," the intention of Daoist Lord Yu Chen carried a hint of curiosity as he spoke, "Oh? And what scenery does your path hold, Daoist? I would love to hear it in detail."

"Though your Dao and mine resonate with the same melody, both seeking certification in nothing, seeing Dao in being."

Luo Hou's voice grew grand and solemn, each word seemed to contain endless truths of the Demon Path, stirring ripples of Dao rhythm in Chaos.

"Demon is, to grind!"

"What is to grind? To use oneself as a grinding stone to sharpen all Dao; to use all Dao as grinding stones to sharpen oneself."

"Holy virtue resplendent, illuminating all beings, elevating all demons, this is the refining of one's mind, the bright and upright grind, one manifestation of my Dao."

"Dominance unmatched, imposing across all ages, ruling over all heavens, this is the sharpening of will, the grind of sole supremacy, another manifestation of my Dao."

"Creating calamities, stirring up conflicts, refining all beings, making them explode with potential in despair, seeking transcendence in pain, this is the reverse grind, more so the core of my Dao."

"Those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish, traversing all heavens, disdainful of all gods, creating great calamity for all beings, great tribulation for all gods! All these are grind."

"My Demon Path lies in this endless grinding, removing falsehoods and keeping the truth, forging the purest, strongest Dao."

Luo Hou looked at "The Three Pure Ones as Pangu," those deep demon eyes bursting with unprecedented brilliant light, his tone unabashed, without concealment:

"I grind all paths with my Dao, and all paths nourish me in return, so cycling, I have reached the present Fourth Realm."

"Next, I wish to seek the breakthrough to the Fifth Realm, needing to return to the origin, seeking a 'void,' seeking a 'nothing'!"

"And to seek this 'void,' to certify this 'nothing,' I must push my 'grind' Dao to the extreme."

"The extreme grind is... grinding my Dao away to the point of... Transforming Dao!"

The words "Transforming Dao" brought a silence as if the entire Chaos came to stillness!

"Transforming Dao?" Even Xuanqing was somewhat surprised.

He took a careful look at Luo Hou, suspecting whether the spirit of Ming River had possessed Luo Hou after death?

Transforming Dao means to abandon all existing cultivation, Dao Fruit, and even the fundamental imprint of existence, integrating it completely into the vast and boundless Great Dao.

If one can break through the illusions and achieve Nirvana Rebirth, one could rise with a single step, achieving Great Transcendence.

If one fails, they would be beyond redemption, possibly not even having the chance for Reincarnation, being completely dissipated between heaven and earth, becoming a part of the Great Dao.

This failure is manifested as losing oneself.

Losing the True Self Spirit, joining with the Dao, becoming silent with the Dao, thoroughly lost in the Great Dao.

"Lose my Da Luo, and I can't retrieve it back; Daoist, think wisely!" Xuanqing said in a solemn tone.

Earlier, he revealed the principle of Taiyi, intending to persuade Luo Hou.

Luo Hou seemingly caught on to the doubts in the hearts of The Three Pure Ones, he smiled openly and said: "Without breaking, there is no building; without letting go, there is no gain."

"My Demon Path, Holy Virtue resplendent, honest and upright, can refine all Daos; how could it fear being refined?"

He paused, his eyes flashing a hint of complex emotion.

There was regret, and also a sense of relief.

"Actually, this last step of Transforming Dao, I originally planned to achieve through the hands of Hong Jun."

Luo Hou said earnestly: "He and I have been battling since the Chaos Era, thinking of making a final desperate struggle, then taking the opportunity to sacrifice myself to Dao, borrowing his Immortal Dao power to extinguish my Demon Path, perhaps glimpsing a sliver of chance."

"But what a pity."

Luo Hou looked at "The Three Pure Ones as Pangu," a peculiar smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"A pity that Hong Jun met you all."

The Three Pure Ones, upon hearing this, instantly understood Luo Hou's thought.

"So you intend to borrow our hands to achieve the purpose of refining your existing path?"

"Correct."

Luo Hou's voice was calm, yet carried unprecedented determination: "I wish to borrow your strength, to completely scatter, refine, and return my Demon Path origin to Chaos, then use this opportunity to comprehend that little truth in Great Dao, to see if I can glimpse the threshold of the Fifth Realm."

"To even reach the ultimate realm!"

The demonic qi around Luo Hou undulated slightly, he bowed deeply: "This battle must be fought with life and death at stake, I implore the three Daoists to go all out!"

The Three Pure Ones were silent for a moment.

"Daoist, with such resolve, we admire you."

Finally, The Three Pure Ones slowly opened their mouths, voices solemn and majestic, "The path of the Great Dao, different routes leading to the same destination. Since the Daoist has decided, we should certainly accompany you, lending you a hand."
