Myriad Paths

Li Qi's plan finally surfaced.

This war to destroy demons was only his means, not his goal.

All the help from Qidian and the great bodhisattvas was for this moment.

What was Li Qi's goal?

Just now, he said that he hoped to create a world that the demons could not interfere with, hoping to free all living beings from the control of the demons, and all those who practiced the Tao would have no "Tao enemies" from now on.

And to accomplish this, it is necessary to have the ultimate weapon against the demons, the former "formless heaven".

The demons were destroyed to eliminate Li Qi's interference. The karma of these actions belonged to the demon prince, so what about their true spirits? Where did they go?

Of course, it was silent, and they were all collected by the demon prince.

And the demon prince used these destructions to forge another thing, that is... the formless heaven that the Buddha finally gave him.

The formless heaven is "nothing", which is completely opposite to the other heavens.

Therefore, when all the extinction and nothingness were included, the formless realm was also slowly recovering.

With the help of the "nothingness" brought by the multiple second-grade battles, the power of the formless realm was finally restored.

As enemies, the demon and the Buddha, one created the heaven of transformation and the other created the formless realm.

Now, the heaven of transformation and the heaven of transformation are in the hands of Wu Xian, and the formless realm was handed over to the demon prince before the Buddha passed away.

The demon prince... got the same treatment as Sariputra.

After Sariputra passed away, the Tathagata asserted that he would become Huaguang Tathagata in the future.

And the demon prince is the future Pratyekabuddha.

All this seems to be foreshadowing something.

But no matter what happens after that, at this moment, the demon prince has appeared, he is as powerful as ever, and is even ready to forcibly contain the karma demon.

Of course, the karma demon will not sit and wait for death. In fact, the demon path also responded at this moment.

Almost immediately, more than three second-grade demons appeared.

They are the Bodhi Dharma Wisdom Demon, the Five Dust Demon, and the Good Root Demon.

Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, no one of the first-rank demons made a move.

That's safe.

So, above the sky, the golden monkey swung his stick.

When the stick fell, the demons retreated, the dark clouds disappeared, and in an instant, the millions of worlds, the billions of people, the opportunities for creation, and the principles of division were clearly visible, just like looking at things in a mirror, beauty and ugliness can be seen.

The seven spirits turned, the five colors lingered, the layers of buildings, the three qi became smoke, from light to light, it was really like a full moon, summarizing the body of a hundred bones, the shape of all the images, there were dragons flying in the sky, the vast ocean was covered with darkness, and the wind and thunder were endless.

The golden monkey was not as anxious and calculating as Li Qi and the others.

Because there was no need, all the changes, all the calculations, in his case, were just a display of the Dharma and a swing of the golden stick.

Beat all the changes into "chaos", just like he himself was a spirit stone born from chaos.

There is just one question...

Is the current golden monkey born in the chaos?

But this question will definitely not be answered at this moment.

The demons were beaten back by the stick, and when they were about to attack again, they saw that the two brothers of the Zhu family were already in place.

Changqin played the strings, Fengdan laughed wildly, and made hand gestures to block the surroundings.

The karma demon was struggling in the inner world of the demon prince.

The other demons looked over here.

The golden monkey guarded, several great bodhisattvas supported, and Li Qi, Zhu Fengdan, and Changqin surrounded by their power.

As we all know, the demons are not of one mind, especially the high-level demons, who are almost all self-centered.

Their cooperation is completely based on the cognition of "self", so when cooperation can bring benefits, they will cooperate, and when cooperation cannot bring benefits, they will decisively withdraw.

Don't expect the demons to invest too much emotion in things other than themselves.

But in the same way, the demons know very well when to join forces to get the greatest benefits, and they can often play the role of an "absolutely rational person".

Therefore, these second-grade magic paths decisively joined forces.

Cannot delay, if it continues to delay, the risk is too great.

When the Demon Prince breaks through the second grade, the war situation cannot be reversed.

Must take advantage of now.

The war situation has expanded.

Before it was just a prison, now the entire universe is a battlefield.

The war situation has already involved two-digit second-grades, even in the war between humans and witches, this is definitely a big scene.

The entire universe has been affected, all time, all space, almost no place can escape.

Except for the world, only the world is still safe and sound.

Those second-grade civilizations, and even the first-grade civilization, have also been affected to a certain extent, so that their powerful people must reach out to prevent too much aftermath.

And those worlds without shelter are in crisis at the same time.

Danger, and opportunity, appear at the same time.

The universe... has changed.

——————————

How long did the battle last?

Actually, it is not clear.

On the battlefield called the universe, a thick layer of corpses was spread.

Mu Yu was also part of the war, but his battle was over, so he just watched the second-grade fight continue.

He stared at the broken corpses scattered all over the field...

In fact, there were no corpses, what he saw was an endless, destroyed future.

Those possibilities are the corpses themselves. This is not the corpse of a certain creature, but the death of the entire universe. The possibilities of the universe are being wiped out.

Looking at the possibilities that were wiped out in the universe, Mu Yu felt sincere sorrow.

Possibility is the most precious wealth.

Why are children lovable?

Because children have infinite possibilities. Compared with an adult whose life is already fixed and has no more possibilities in the future, young children with infinite possibilities are obviously more precious.

And now, there are countless "endings" floating in the universe. These are all possibilities that have been ended. In these timelines, the universe itself has also lost the possibility of going to the future.

So, these branches will be destroyed and turned into endless "corpses".

"Do you want to watch more?" At this time, the voice of another Qidian third-grade came from the side.

Mu Yu lowered his head: "I thought we were the main force, but I didn't expect us to be just bait, and what I didn't expect was that this war would be so cruel..."

He thought that the damage was only countless civilizations, but he found that the losses in the second-grade battle were much more terrible than that.

"Don't worry." At this time, the third-rank suddenly said, "Look, these corpses are not wasted in vain."

Mu Yu followed the other person's line of sight.

He seemed to hear the soft cooing sound of the universe.

In the dim rays that seemed like dusk, radio signals were still transmitted from the dead universe possibilities.

Those who were trapped in the cage of the universe's nothingness, blocked by the endless void, unable to explore the outside world, so they hoped to meet kind people to reply to them with their fastest means of communication.

These radio signals were like the scars on the ground after the cruel winter. In this gray death, the silver bell-like chirping of birds came.

Just as Mu Yu stood and stared at this horrible scene of life destruction, the winter in his heart retreated with such a gentle bird song.

What lingered in Mu Yu's ears was the loud trumpet of the birth of new life, which came with the new possibilities.

In the dark universe, what kind of mood do the birds have to face the darkness? How do they sing to the empty scene?

The possibility of their location has been wiped out, the distance and the speed of light have pinched their throats, and they will never have the possibility of breaking through. This is their fate.

But in the night sky, there is such a hesitant but clear bird song, which makes people feel moved and even tremble.

When the earth is still frozen, there is such a small sound like a silver bell that quickly crosses the sky.

Mu Yu laughed with relief.

We cannot choose the world, we have almost nothing to choose. In this universe, the most precious thing is the power of choice, so Mu Yu can only watch the bloody and terrifying footsteps in this severe winter.

But even if it is a second-grade, it cannot stop the bird song, cannot silence the birds, and cannot stop the singing from the higher wisdom.

Mu Yu made up his mind that he could not stop these creative and beautiful worlds, because they have come to Mu Yu irresistibly.

Whether you like it or not, it will be a new world.

There was a story.

A boy dug his blind eyes with his fingers, and when his eyes felt pain, he saw a meteor.

Adults did not believe that blind eyes could see blood-red meteors, but the boy's words were absolutely true and undoubtable.

Just like what Mu Yu saw at this moment.

Mu Yu set off immediately.

He had been complaining about Li Qi before, complaining that the other party's war destroyed countless possibilities, and complaining that he was just one of the chess pieces.

But now he understood.

What Li Qi asked for, what Li Qi wanted to pursue, and what Li Qi wanted to protect were all these.

The magic way is the ultimate denial, denying everything except oneself.

Only the self is real, and everything else is false.

Under the denial of the magic way, it is like a storm falling from the sky, it entangles us, like a parasite drilling into the brain, driving people crazy, everything is torn into blood and red, and immersed in darkness.

But it has never been our true innermost self. We have always been far away from it in our hearts. We have always been this clear bird song, first quiet, then rising, and now gurgling like a mountain spring.

So, Li Qi wanted to recognize all things, and he paid a huge price for this. To recognize all things, he had to accept them. Li Qi's reconstruction came from this.

At this time, people have to recall the other two gods.

Haotian and Taiyi.

Mu Yu thought about this, and then flew over those civilizations.

Do everything he can to let them all survive, leave the extreme pain and countless corpses behind, and never let death take them away!

—————————

Many years later.

The war is over.

The power of the karma demon dissipated, and the magic path finally chose to retreat, because there would be problems if they continued to fight.

The killing power of the golden monkey was indeed huge, and several demons could not withstand it head-on. In addition, they lost the Karma Demon, while the Demon Prince had the upper hand. When the time came, he could use the colorless realm and the Karma Demon as the foundation of the Tao and ascend to the second level.

At the moment when the Demon Prince finally succeeded, the Demon Dao chose to retreat.

And there was a new second-level person in the universe, the Demon Prince Shang Fan.

This war is over.

The second-class people left, and Li Qi didn't say much after meeting the Demon Prince. Both sides left because they still had things to do.

After Li Qi left, he came to Mu Yu.

Because he just saw that this fat young man was running in the universe, secretly "protecting" those young civilizations one after another.

He was eliminating their future dangers and gently adjusting their history so that they could live safely for a longer time.

This is a very dangerous thing. If you are not careful, their history will be completely changed, and then it will change from protection to killing.

"Okay, take a break." Li Qi appeared in front of the other party and patted his shoulder.

Mu Yu stopped, saluted Li Qi, and then said: "Senior... won?"

"Can you still see me if you lose?" Li Qi smiled.

"Yes, that's really... thank you senior." Mu Yu said so.

"Thank me for what? I have to thank you, these are all extra things." Li Qi looked at the "possibilities" around him and said so.

"There is no such thing as what is in the world, there are only things that can be done and what cannot be done. What we are doing now is what can be done and what should be done." Mu Yu replied.

"Moreover, the senior also deserves this thank you. The senior's consideration is far-reaching, and I am indeed not as good as him."

"Let's not say these flattering words. Qidian suffered heavy losses this time, but it is inconvenient for me to come forward. Some of them must be resentful of me now. These follow-up will be handed over to you. They don't understand what happened." Li Qi smiled and said so.

The second and third ranks are really helpless as riddlers. They can't even describe the specific appearance of the battle to the outside world.

Even if they say it, they can't understand it. They can't understand it at all.

If they are forced to understand and the information of the experience is directly brainwashed into their brains, then they will die.

The war in the endless world and infinite possibilities is too grand. Mortals have no way to understand the complex situation. Each node will bring more changes, and each change will trigger a large number of butterfly effects. The infinite division of multiple time and space is simply beyond the mortal's reason.

Either you don't understand it, or you will die if you understand it.

"It should be so." Mu Yu nodded and took on the task.

Li Qi didn't say much.

This war was planned, arranged, and executed by him from beginning to end, so he was a little exhausted at this moment and was ready to pack up and go home to rest.

In any case, for Li Qi, home is always a place where he can put down his thoughts.
