Chapter 197 Cause and Effect

When Wei Yuan replaced Buzhou Mountain in supporting the heavens and earth, as his energy depleted and he could no longer hold on, a five-colored stream of light flew into his body from the direction of the North Sea, sustaining his energy and foundation. This was the cause and effect between her and Wei Yuan.

The Daoist's eyes suddenly became incomparably deep.

His left pupil seemed to reflect the ages, while his right eye seemed to be a closed loop of countless causes and effects.

He used this to step into the years through cause and effect, [seeing] what happened back then.

In some cases, this was not as good as Fuxi's path of [Heavenly Secrets], but as long as it was related to Wei Yuan, the effect of the [Cause and Effect] path would directly surpass Fuxi's Heavenly Secrets, possessing all sorts of incredible effects.

In a daze, Wei Yuan seemed to see the collapsed pillar of heaven again.

He 'saw' the injured white-haired Daoist covered in blood, rushing towards Xuanyuan Mound, while Nuwa remained alone, supporting the heavens and earth. Wei Yuan saw her manifest her true form as a deity, rather than the human form of Nuwa's Seventy Transformations. After a while, Zhujiu Yin appeared.

Wei Yuan 'saw' Zhujiu Yin nodding in agreement to Nuwa's request.

Willing to resolve the calamity of [heaven collapsing in the northwest, earth sinking in the southeast].

To support the Nine Netherworld Kingdom.

From then on, he transformed into the dragon who illuminates the Nine Nethers—

Until this stage, it still matched Wei Yuan's understanding, and Nuwa was also in a safe state, her energy majestic, her realm and foundation far stronger than Wei Yuan's at this moment. The white-haired Daoist continued to watch what had happened in ancient times.

He could only try to maintain this extremely weak thread of cause and effect.

Heaven and earth collapsed, primordial energy was unbalanced, and naturally there were calamitous winds, fires, and rampaging lightning. The earth cracked, a scene of world destruction. Nuwa's body became huge, with a human body and a serpent's tail, patching the sky. The wind and rain were tumultuous, but the gentle woman's eyes were firm and peaceful.

Suddenly, a shout came from afar: "A-Wa! Are you alright?!" Wei Yuan's pupils suddenly constricted.

He saw a figure in green robes flashing like lightning in the wind and rain, black hair falling to his waist, his face handsome, with a pair of dark golden vertical pupils, raising his hand to pierce through two streams of turbid air with a jade flute, his face full of nervousness and worry. It was Fuxi!

Wei Yuan's hands suddenly clenched tightly—

A chill rose in his heart, not because of fear, but because he had already guessed the ancient reasons, guessed what had happened, and yet, despite this, he could do nothing.

This was not Fuxi.

It wasn't real.

Fuxi had said that when he arrived, he only saw Nuwa's body. In this scene, Nuwa visibly breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother."

'Fuxi' raised his hand to suppress the surroundings with the Eight Trigrams of the Earlier Heaven, directly sealing off the heavenly secrets, and then, with a relieved look, smiled and said, "Don't worry, with the heavenly secrets suppressed, these turbid energies won't be able to detect you. Just finish your work."

"After Brother protects you until the end, Brother will take you home."

"Okay."

The gentle girl nodded, and her body swayed, in order to complete the final step.

She transformed from the innate divine body of a human body and serpent's tail into a human body that saved even more power.

She did her best to mend the sky, calm the wind, rain, and thunder, so that the earth and all living beings could live and thrive. Wei Yuan held the sword in his right hand, his knuckles white.

'Fuxi' in green robes suddenly smiled lightly and said, "A-Wa?"

"Mm? Brother..."

The girl raised her eyes without guard.

The last thing that entered her eyes was a cold sword light. She saw her brother's expression was cold, the long sword in his hand was incomparably sharp, directly piercing through her brow, without any defense. Blood splattered down, and Fuxi in green robes held the sword with both hands, piercing through the girl's divine soul bit by bit.

"Brother will take you home."

At the same time, four streams of light tore apart the girl's limbs and meridians.

The gentle girl completed the feat of mending the sky.

The last thing remaining on that face was still doubt and confusion, and a soft call that only Fuxi could hear, with a hint of weakness and pain: "Bro...ther." Boom!!!

The surrounding cause and effect collapsed and shattered. Wei Yuan's right fist smashed into the cause and effect of fate in the void, his skin torn by the incomparably sharp timelines and causal lines. Red blood, like blood jade marrow, dripped down drop by drop. The white-haired Daoist's palm trembled slightly, and his face was livid.

At this time, he understood that Fuxi's Heavenly Secrets had definitely seen what happened back then.

Definitely.

Therefore, Fuxi had 'gone mad', mad enough to enter the turbid world alone.

He himself had almost fallen there, but he had also greatly injured the turbid world's vitality.

Therefore, just now his instinct had prompted him not to continue asking, otherwise Fuxi might lose control again.

He appeared when Nuwa was doing her best and could not spare any attention, and could not detect his aura. He killed the 'compatriots' transformed by the turbid energy, causing himself to be tainted with turbid energy.

Then, he used the Eight Trigrams of the Earlier Heaven to gain Nuwa's trust.

The killing intent in Wei Yuan's heart continued to rise. The [Eight Trigrams of the Earlier Heaven] formation set up by the false Fuxi was not to conceal Nuwa's aura, or rather, it was to conceal Nuwa's aura, but the target of the concealment was not the turbid energy, but Fuxi himself.

At that time, Fuxi was probably also in trouble.

Wei Yuan pressed his brow, recalling what the false Fuxi had done after this—

First, he used some reason and crisis to lure Xi He to drive the ten suns across the sky, leading to the death of Nü Chou, who died in the area of the overseas countries, causing Kua Fu to chase the sun to his death.

Second, Ying Long introduced Kua Fu's fire poison into himself in order to resolve his pain, leading to Gengchen's prolonged weakness. He suspected that this was also the beginning of a death trap targeting the [Dragon of Wish Fulfillment].

Third, he used the previous situation to provoke the conflict between humans and gods, forging the Sun-Shooting Arrows powerful enough to completely kill the Great Sun Golden Crows, and handed them over to Da Yi, allowing Da Yi to personally kill nine Golden Crow birds. Then, Da Yi committed suicide, and Da'e returned to the Moon Palace, indifferent to the secular world.

This series of actions directly led to the opposition between the human race and the god race.

As well as the death or seclusion of all the elites of the younger generation of the human race and the god race.

Da Yi died, Nü Chou died, Kua Fu died, Gengchen retired to eliminate the fire poison. Nine Great Sun Golden Crows died.

Da'e, the leader of the Twelve Bright Moons, was far away from the mortal world.

The poisonous plan directly crippled the mainstay generation of the ancient years.

"It's you!"

Everything, at least part of the past history, suddenly became clear. The white-haired Daoist closed his eyes, held his right hand, and blood dripped into the myriad causes and effects, then slowly clenched it. Many causes and effects gathered, becoming the cause of all causes. The previous scene reappeared, but it was locked on the green-robed celestial god, Fuxi.

Causal authority, trace back!

Forcibly connecting cause and effect, the Daoist's eyes were deep, looking at that Fuxi in green robes, seemingly intending to rely on the cause and effect he saw to forcibly grasp the other party's existence. The myriad phenomena of cause and effect unfolded here, and then continued to extend. The green-robed celestial god became increasingly clear in Wei Yuan's eyes.

Suddenly,

This fake Fuxi became agile. The surrounding heavenly secrets reversed and changed, each extending its own concept outward, spreading and forming a heavenly secret defense layer with extremely strong self-logic and a closed loop. Wei Yuan's cause and effect were abruptly interrupted.

Then, the false Fuxi's eyes slightly narrowed, revealing a flash of light, becoming agile and real. It actually seemed to become real from a simple [cause and effect heavenly secret].

Then, with a gentle smile, he raised his hand, his sleeves billowing. His right hand suppressed the eight types of innate concepts, but what he showed at this moment was by no means Fuxi's path, but a method of simply gathering the eight types of innate concepts together.

Barbaric, violent, crazy, revealing an aura of great destruction.

The white-haired Daoist resisted the urge to attack, supporting the sky and the earth, and then used the method of overturning the sky to attack against the attack.

He only slightly lowered his eyes, cut off the cause and effect, and swept his sleeves.

Its essence was transformed by cause and effect, and when the cause and effect were destroyed, it would naturally dissipate without a trace.

"As expected, clear and turbid are relative, and yin and yang transform, corresponding to Fuxi's [foundation]."

Wei Yuan's killing intent and baleful energy were stuck in his throat. He held the sword in his right hand, letting all these anger and baleful energy pour into the long sword. After a long time, he exhaled a turbid breath and muttered to himself, "The realm is not high enough, the foundation is not solid enough. Otherwise, even if I only glanced at it, I could forcibly determine the cause and effect, and then directly lock on."

"I wouldn't have been detected in reverse by his sleeve."

"If I condense the Yuanshi Dao Body and prove the cause of all fruits, I can also directly plunder his cause and effect."

"Then, with a thought, I can know his strength level. Heh... But this requires reaching Hun Tian's realm, or at least approaching his realm to be able to do it." Wei Yuan closed his eyes for a long time, accumulating all his killing intent in the Chang'an Sword, his expression calm, his sword intent cold.

Just now, he only used the power of cause and effect.

He resisted the impulse to smash the fake Fuxi's head on the spot.

After all, what he had just seen was just a wisp of thought transformed.

Even if he ground his bones to ashes, it would not be satisfying. It was better to play along. The white-haired Daoist opened his eyes, sat cross-legged in his quiet room, and slowly breathed out. Only by tearing him to pieces and grinding his bones to ashes could he quell the anger in his heart, quell that hatred and killing intent.

"Huh? Venerable, what's wrong?"

In a certain secret place, the fluctuation of energy startled the guards stationed outside, but they saw the man dressed in black, with a cold and refined temperament, and white hair at his temples, smiled and said, "It's nothing, I was just planning to entertain a friend, but I didn't expect that friend to run so fast."

"However, the Dao of [Cause and Effect] is indeed the most unpredictable." "The top ten of cause and effect? That Yu Xu is indeed..."

The other party suddenly understood.

The man, now refined in appearance, said calmly, "This time you go, I have another mission."

"Yes!"

The brawny man who spoke earlier bowed and said, "I don't know what kind of magic he is good at? And what kind of powerful skills does he have? We can also mobilize resources and spiritual treasures to set up corresponding great formations, so that we can take advantage of the fact that he has just broken through and his foundation is insufficient to kill him!"

The refined man nodded, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was deducing, and then said calmly:

"He has just broken through, and he has not been able to stabilize his realm and foundation, yet he chose to be so ostentatious."

"The magic he controls is [Cause and Effect], but his realm is only at the initial stage. He can forcibly graft cause and effect, trace back cause and effect, and forcibly reverse cause and effect, and other mysterious methods. He is immune to cause and effect and heavenly secrets to a certain extent."

"As for attack and combat..."

The refined man shook his head and said in a calm tone, "He can forcibly explode his authority, causing the cause and effect of all things to either be reversed or overlap, so that they collapse and perish. It is extremely difficult to defend against. Even those with extraordinary strength may accidentally have their self-existence denied, which is extremely difficult to deal with."

"He possesses the power of [Words Become Law]."

"That is, forcibly connecting cause and effect, causing all kinds of incredible things to happen, so that the battlefield develops in a direction favorable to him. He can even rationalize the absurd cause and effect connection of a god being killed by a stone."

"As for defense, he can make any attack directed at him [irrational], that is, without being involved in cause and effect, he will naturally not be hit by any attack."

"And in terms of attack, he possesses [inevitability]."

"Heh... It's not the heavenly secret guidance or cause and effect determination that you think, but the reversal of cause and effect."

"Before making a move, the result of being hit in a vital point has already been determined, and then the action of making a move is performed to complete the cause and effect. And this kind of inevitable hit characteristic is almost his instinct. Every move and every style has this level of characteristic."

The gods and turbid world experts around him, emitting powerful auras, fell into silence and shock.

Not involved in cause and effect, immune to heavenly secrets.

And directly cause the enemy's cause and effect to overlap, denying their self-existence. Reversal of cause and effect!

Inevitable hit.

It sounded mysterious and wonderful, both yearning and fearful. They only felt that this was indeed the existence who had reached the top ten by walking the path of [Cause and Effect], and they more clearly understood the evaluation that everything below the top ten was an ant. These two levels were completely different. A person in robes slightly took a breath and said:

"How should we fight against him?"

The refined man said in a calm tone, "This is his state when he reaches his full strength."

"At that time, this will really be the most difficult top ten to kill."

"But now, he has only just reached this realm, and his foundation is too far behind to be so unpredictable."

"You must remember to bring all the treasures that are immune to cause and effect, take the treasures and formations that can fight against cause and effect, resist his authority in a short period of time, and seal off the inside and outside with formations to restrict his [cause and effect] characteristics, prevent his [not involved in cause and effect] and [words become law]

from exerting their power, and not give him a chance to use these two authorities."

He paused, reached an obvious conclusion, and said calmly, "In a narrow space, kill him in close combat!"
