Chapter 1887 Ancient Heavenly Dao Plate
Inside the Desolate Heaven Coffin, Wu Yan's original body had stopped refining the Desolate Heaven Coffin's array core, and had stood up and stood beside the stone platform.
Not far from him, a thin middle-aged man stood out.
The man had a calm expression, and an indescribable imperial aura naturally emanated from his body. However, the man's face looked extremely pale, and even faintly showed a bit of sick feeling.
He was none other than Ji Xuanyuan, the second-generation descendant of the Heavenly Dao, who had fought with the Netherworld Dao Master before and tied with the Xuanyuan Holy Sword.
Before he was born, I'm afraid no one would have thought that he could become the strongest among the three generations of Heavenly Dao descendants, and far surpassed the other two generations of Heavenly Dao descendants.
Ji Xuanyuan's eyes were now looking through the light ball on the stone platform, looking at the situation in the Desolate Heaven Forbidden World.
He looked at the stone platform and the time venom pool on the stone platform, without any emotional fluctuations, showing that he did not value these external things.
In fact, it is true.
In Wu Yan's view, this legendary second-generation heir of the Heavenly Dao, in addition to his unimaginable feelings for his Xuanyuan Holy Sword, all other external objects seem to be no different in his eyes, even if the degree of cherishment of the external objects is far greater than the Holy Sword in his hand.
This is a kind of sentiment that is difficult to understand. Of course, perhaps it is precisely because he has this sentiment that he can reach this point today with his understanding and tenacity that surpasses everything.
The reason why he appeared here is naturally because Wu Yan invited him.
Wu Yan was also a little surprised that Ji Xuanyuan was not just a heir of the Heavenly Dao. He was actually selected by the Great Wilderness Yuan Ding and became the second-generation heir of the Heaven-Repairing.
Unfortunately, despite his high understanding and great efforts for this, he ultimately failed to stimulate the power of the Great Wilderness Yuan Ding, so he failed to crack the true secret of the Heaven-Repairing and eventually lost the Great Wilderness Yuan Ding.
It was precisely because he had focused his main energy on studying the Great Desolate Yuan Ding that his original body was successfully attacked by the Buried Heaven God Lord, and was eventually trapped and suppressed in the Buried Heaven God Coffin for two epochs.
However, in fact, the main purpose of the Netherworld Dao Lord's clone to attack Ji Xuanyuan was actually for the Great Desolate Yuan Ding.
However, the Netherworld Dao Lord could not even get the recognition of Pan Zu, so it was naturally impossible to get the recognition of the Great Desolate Yuan Ding.
Zangtian Mingzun did not know that Ji Xuanyuan had not actually cracked the secret of the Great Desolate Yuan Ding, and that this treasure later escaped from the Buried Heaven God Coffin on its own, and after escaping, it selected the third generation of the Heaven Repairing Heir.
Of course, he would never have thought that because he sealed the Great Desolate Yuan Ding with the Buried Heaven God Coffin, when the Great Desolate Yuan Ding escaped, it triggered the counterattack of the Heavenly Dao power within it, and eventually caused his clone to suffer extremely serious injuries, so that he could no longer make waves in the Three Realms.
If not, I believe that even if Ji Xuanyuan had a high level of comprehension, he would not have had the opportunity to impact the current realm.
After all, the Heaven Burial God Coffin is also a high-level holy artifact. Under its control, Ji Xuanyuan, who was sealed inside, can be tortured to death.
But even so, the torture Ji Xuanyuan suffered during the two epochs of being sealed was beyond description.
Speaking of which, Wu Yan had to admire the perseverance of the second-generation descendant of the Heavenly Dao in front of him.
He actually endured the torture of the Heaven Burial God Coffin on his soul, and infiltrated the Heaven Burial God Coffin with his own holy consciousness bit by bit, and finally refined it into his own cave world.
It was for this reason that he finally learned the true identity of the Heaven Burial God, who was actually the clone of the Netherworld Great Heavenly Lord. After escaping from the predicament, Ji Xuanyuan did not rush to take revenge, but separated a lot of clones, sneaked into various realms, and began to collect and organize information about the Netherworld, while also looking for the whereabouts of the Great Wilderness Yuan Ding.
He had extraordinary feelings for this treasure, and actually had a little bit of luck in his heart.
Unfortunately, even with his ability, and using the deployment that the Xuanhuang Patriarch had left in the Three Realms, he was unable to detect any information about the Great Desolate Yuan Ding.
Even when Wu Yan entered the Xuanhuang Small World and experienced various changes, and several times, he showed the Great Desolate Yuan Ding in the Xuanhuang Small World, he was not able to sense it.
At this moment, when Wu Yan took out the Great Desolate Yuan Ding and sent it to Ji Xuanyuan, his originally indifferent expression finally changed greatly.
It can be seen that his feelings for the Great Desolate Yuan Ding are indeed very deep and very complicated.
However, he did not reach out to take the Great Desolate Yuan Ding, but after staring deeply for a moment, he resolutely retracted his gaze and turned to the light ball again.
"Senior? What are you doing..."
"You are the successor of the Heaven-Repairing Technique that Pan Zu needs. You don't need to say anything, I know what's going on."
Ji Xuanyuan raised his hand to stop Wu Yan from saying the following words, and pointed at the light ball and said to Wu Yan.
"Hurry up and refine the Desolate Heaven Coffin. I'll help you contain the four of them. But you'll need to do me a favor later."
"Senior, please speak."
Wu Yan put away the Great Desolate Yuan Ding, and he was quite impressed by Ji Xuanyuan's courage. To be honest, he was still a little worried when he took out the Great Desolate Yuan Ding just now.
The feeling this person gave him could only be described as unfathomable.
Among the people he had come into contact with, no one could compare to him. Even the Dark Dao Zun and the Holy Spirit of Merit did not give him such a strong feeling.
He was sure that if this person really had any ill intentions towards him, without the protection of the Great Desolate Yuan Ding, he would not be able to resist.
Wu Yan even had a hunch that if Ji Xuanyuan really wanted to enter the Desolate Heaven Coffin, he would not have to go through him, he could come in directly.
"I wonder what the senior needs me to do?"
"The collapsed Hongmeng world is no longer suitable for this emperor to practice. However, this emperor has no other way to leave this world and enter the Great Desolate Yuan Realm. The disaster of the Desolate Heaven Tower is an opportunity. This emperor knows that in this world, only you can have a real connection with the Desolate Heaven Tower after the disaster. What this emperor needs your help with is also related to this."
Ji Xuanyuan did not intend to hide it, and immediately revealed his true intention to Wu Yan.
"The Desolate Heaven Tower is the only chance for me to leave this world and enter the Great Desolate Yuan Realm. I need your help to allow me to enter the Desolate Heaven Tower and leave this world with the tower!"
"This... I'm afraid you think too highly of me, don't you? The Desolate Heaven Tower is about to pass the tribulation and become a Taoist weapon. With its level, how can I contact it? What's more, I have to send you into it?"
After hearing Ji Xuanyuan's request, Wu Yan said with embarrassment.
"If even you can't do it, I'm afraid no one in this world of suffering can do it. I understand your concerns. Don't worry, if you try your best and really can't do it, I will never blame you."
Ji Xuanyuan said with a faint smile, as if he had no doubt about Wu Yan's ability in this regard.
"There won't be other problems if you do this? For example, will it cause any bad influence or consequences to the Desolate Heaven Tower?" Wu Yan pondered for a moment, and hesitated to express his concerns.
"Your worry is totally unnecessary. If there is any impact, how can the eighteen stone tribes become the subordinate race of the Desolate Heaven Tower? Don't worry, if the Desolate Heaven Tower can really prove its Dao and become a Dao weapon, it still needs Dao protectors like this emperor who have reached the realm of Great Heavenly Venerable." Ji Xuanyuan smiled and said.
"Dao protector? Does that mean that those stone tribes are also his Dao protectors?" Wu Yan obviously heard this title for the first time, and couldn't help looking at Ji Xuanyuan with curiosity.
"Since you asked, I can tell you. In fact, even if I don't say these things, you will naturally have the opportunity to understand them in the future."
Ji Xuanyuan saw Wu Yan asking, and took another look at the situation in the Desolate Heaven Forbidden World, and found that it was exactly as he expected. Even if he left, the other four people were suspicious of each other. On the contrary, no one could enter the core area of the Desolate Heaven Coffin that could really leave the Desolate Heaven Forbidden World, so he said to Wu Yan.
"Please help me, senior."
"Do you know that the Great Wilderness Yuan Ding is actually a Taoist artifact?"
Ji Xuanyuan looked at Wu Yan, who shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of it, but he had guessed about it.
From what Ji Xuanyuan said, it seemed that he knew a lot about these things, Wu Yan immediately became interested and listened carefully.
"These things are also known by this emperor's past life memories. It is said that the primordial world opened up by Pan Zu actually has another name, called the Ancient Heaven Universe. The reason why it is called the Ancient Heaven Universe is that it was originally a Taoist artifact called the 'Ancient Heaven Dao Pan'. The entire primordial world is actually a world that was opened up and evolved from this Taoist artifact. It is rumored that Pan Zu was actually the Taoist spirit of this Taoist artifact, so his name is called Pangu."
Ji Xuanyuan transmitted this to Wu Yan, and when he mentioned these, he couldn't help but show infinite yearning on his face.
"What?! So the origin of the Hongmeng world is like this! Is this true? How come this rumor sounds so similar to the myths circulated in ancient times?" Wu Yan said in surprise.
"Whether it is true or not, this emperor has no way to judge. Perhaps when you complete the task of repairing the sky, you will naturally understand. However, this emperor thinks that these rumors are probably 80% to 90% true. Because the nine great celestial masters who governed the nine realms of Hongmeng in ancient times are not just as simple as they seem. This emperor speculates that the nine of them may all be the protectors of the Taoist artifact "Ancient Heavenly Dao Plate"! Moreover, according to this emperor's speculation, the nine of them did not really fall, but left this world because of their realm improvement and went to the Great Wilderness Yuanjie to seek a higher path."
"So that's it!"
Wu Yan nodded in understanding. Thinking of the scene of the opening of the sky that he had seen in the ancient demon tomb before, Wu Yan suddenly understood a little.
Perhaps what Ji Xuanyuan said was a little different from the real situation, but I believe the difference should not be too big. This should be the ancient truth.
As for whether Pan Zu is alive or dead, no one can accurately determine it. There is even speculation that once the sky repair is completed, Pan Zu will reappear in the Hongmeng world.
If it is true as Ji Xuanyuan said, Pan Zu is the spirit of this Taoist artifact, then he is unlikely to die.
"With the ability of the senior, if you can really enter the Desolate Sky Tower and become the protector of this Taoist artifact, wouldn't it be wronged for yourself?" Wu Yan, who has already understood the meaning of the protector, is naturally curious about this.
"Haha, how can I say it's unfair? Don't forget, if the Desolate Heaven Tower can really survive this catastrophe and become a Dao weapon, then its Dao spirit will definitely revive, and then it will open up and evolve its own original universe. If I can become its protector, then I can participate in the opening up of the entire original universe. Not only can I become one of the original Dao masters, but I can also take the opportunity to observe the opening up process of the entire original universe and accumulate experience for my future Dao weapon. How can such a good thing be said to be unfair?"
Perhaps because he was quite fond of Wu Yan, the fourth-generation descendant of the Heavenly Dao and the heir of the Heaven Repairer, and in order to allow Wu Yan to do his best in the future help, Ji Xuanyuan told Wu Yan a lot of things in this regard, which opened Wu Yan's horizons and increased his knowledge.
Especially the things related to Dao weapons and the universe, which directly solved the biggest doubts in Wu Yan's heart, and made his understanding of the Hongmeng world truly rise to a new height.
This will have unimaginable help for him to complete the important task of repairing the sky in the future.
Even Gu Yao, the descendant of the Heavenly Dao, was not aware of these things, but Ji Xuanyuan knew them. Wu Yan felt that this might be related to his other identity, the Xuanhuang Patriarch.
Perhaps, his origins should not be so simple, and it is likely to involve some secrets when the ancient universe was first opened. Unfortunately, his identity is destined to become a thing of the past.
"Thank you for clearing up my doubts. I promise you that as long as I have the ability, I will do my best to help you and complete this matter!" Wu Yan immediately promised Ji Xuanyuan solemnly.
To Wu Yan's surprise, Ji Xuanyuan did not show any unexpected expression on his face after hearing his promise. It seemed that he had no doubts about this at all, and he seemed to be very relieved about Wu Yan, which made Wu Yan quite puzzled.
In fact, Wu Yan had no idea that Ji Xuanyuan's previous life, the Xuanhuang Patriarch, had an extraordinary origin. Regarding this, almost no one in the entire Hongmeng world knew it.
Strictly speaking, there are still many connections between the Xuanhuang Patriarch and Panzu.
Xuanhuang means heaven and earth. He dared to use Xuanhuang as his title, which actually explained his identity. Unfortunately, almost no one in the entire Hongmeng world knew the secrets of the ancient universe, so naturally they would not think about it in this way.
"This emperor believes in you. Well, this emperor will stay here to protect you, and you should concentrate on refining the Desolate Heaven Coffin. If they come in, this emperor will try his best to contain them for you so that they cannot get close to this Desolate Heaven Holy Platform. However, it is best for you to complete the sacrifice and refining of this treasure within three hours. This emperor has a premonition that another mysterious existence sealed in the Desolate Heaven Tomb is gradually waking up. In about three hours, the seal of the Desolate Heaven Tomb should be completely invalid. If you cannot complete the refining within this time, once that existence wakes up, you will no longer have any time and opportunity to get this treasure!" Ji Xuanyuan said to Wu Yan solemnly.
