Chapter 1358: The Incarnation of the Great Dao
Although, in the description of the avenue, people usually come to the "three thousand avenues" with their mouths open.
But in fact, the Dao can be "three thousand", or "one", or "infinite".
How many avenues there are actually depends on how to divide the avenues.
There are only two ways of yin and yang, that is, there are only two avenues.
If it is divided into the five elements, it will naturally become the five avenues.
If yin and yang are added to the five elements, it can be divided into ten avenues.
Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, three begets all things.
There is a way to everything.
A stone has its way, for example, its hardness may be called the way of hardness, and it can be crushed into sand and has the way of disintegration.
Even this unremarkable stone on the side of the road can have a way of "not being noticed".
A small grass has a way of flexibility, a way of growing hair, a way of taking root, a way of swaying in the wind, a way of "photosynthesis" and so on.
Or from the level of "avenue".
For example, the fire-moving avenue of the Five Elements can first have Yin and Yang, that is, the way of yin and fire, and then it can be subdivided into the way of burning wood, the way of forging fire, the way of melting, the way of refining tools, and the way of foehn. Way and so on.
The same is true of the Waterway Avenue, not only the way of yin and yang, but also the way of flowing water, the way of dripping water, the way of surging, the way of watering and so on.
It is a road of rainwater under the avenue of water, which can be divided into various roads of different natures such as drizzle, heavy rain, and thunderstorm.
For ascetics with low realms, their understanding of the Dao is relatively shallow.
In their eyes, the avenue is either like a blind man who cannot see the whole picture by touching an elephant, or a myopic person who only sees the outline but fails to see the details.
But in the eyes of Tongtian Supremes, the Dao is clearly visible, it can be said that it is like observing lines on the palm of your hand.
Therefore, whether they want to master a "new" way, or branch out from the way they have mastered, it is relatively not that difficult.
Even, they can differentiate some spells or sword moves into their avatars.
certainly,
The price is that when such avatars exist, their deities also lose the ability to use these spells or sword moves.
But don't worry, after the avatar of Dao is recalled, or even killed by the enemy, the deity will regain the lost ability.
Compared with the incarnation outside the body and the second soul, this incarnation of the Dao has both advantages and disadvantages, and it is not perfect just because it can only be used at the Tongtian Realm.
One of the great advantages of this Dao incarnation is that it is convenient and fast enough, and it can be split into a Dao incarnation at any time.
As for the secret arts such as incarnation outside the body and the second soul, a lot of preparations are often required in advance. It is necessary to prepare powerful enough treasures, and it takes a lot of time to close the sacrifice.
However, nothing in this world is perfect.
The Tao is divided into yin and yang, and when yin is strong, yang is weak, and when yang is strong, yin is weak, and everything in the world is like this.
The disadvantage of the incarnation of the Dao, simply put, is that it is not strong and has no room for growth.
In terms of the avenue, the incarnation of the avenue will only use the power of its own way, and it can be said to be completely insulated from the power of other avenues.
As for the room for growth, one's own way has reached its peak, and it is naturally impossible for this incarnation of the way to make any breakthroughs.
The incarnation outside the body and the second soul are different.
They are either copies of the deity, or they are divided from the soul level, so they are not restricted in mastering the Dao.
Those who copy the deity will have the same ability to master the Dao as the deity.
Those who are divided from the level of spirit and soul will grow up like the deity and share the experience of enlightenment.
But turning around, this incarnation outside the body, the second soul, is less convenient than the incarnation of the Dao.
To sum it up, it is very inconvenient, but not very convenient.
Of course, it's relative to say whether it's great or not.
From the aspect of mana, and from the aspect of frontal combat, the incarnation of Dao is really not "powerful".
Even if we don't use those "small ways", but use what is commonly called "great way", the incarnation of the great way that is condensed is still hard to say how strong it is.
After all, the limitations are there.
You just grit your teeth and stomp your feet, split your Dao into two, and you will get an avatar of Dao with half your strength.
What's more, if you do this, the strength of the deity will only be half left.
Fortunately, not everything needs to be solved head-on.
There are also many things that cannot be accomplished with great strength.
The key is to prescribe the right || medicine.
Turn back to the battlefield where ascetics and demons from outside the sky are fighting.
On the side of the outer demons that day, outside the energy field composed of several mobile fortresses, dozens of strange alien demons have left the protection of the energy field.
The world outside the energy field was covered by the bone world cast by Mrs. Bone, but it didn't make the demons outside the sky have too many scruples.
Their goal is very simple, that is to block the attacks of the creatures of the Holy Ruins and at the same time clean up the creatures of the Holy Ruins as much as possible.
Although the creatures of the Holy Ruins can be reborn continuously, they are still easier to deal with than the ascetics over there.
And they did, at least to say that the dawn of hope is ahead.
The creatures of the Holy Ruins gathered the strength of a large number of weak people with the help of the Taoist formation, and indeed they had some capital to challenge the strong.
However, it is only with some capital.
If the creatures of the Holy Ruins that make up the Dao Bing formation all have the appearance of the law and the strength of the heavenly level, then of course there is nothing to say.
Such a large formation of Dao soldiers, the phantoms condensed are not real immortals, there are almost few, crushing this group of extraterrestrial demons has no problem.
Unfortunately not.
In reality, at this time, the Daoist formation of the creatures of the Holy Ruins, the phantoms condensed are at most close to the sky-high level.
With such strength, it's okay to attack the shield of the extraterrestrial demons outside and contribute to the consumption of the energy of the war fortress.
And when you really fight against the evil spirits from outside the sky, not to mention facing an opponent whose strength is stronger than yourself, even if you face an opponent whose strength is comparable to yourself, the Daoist formation will suffer in many ways.
The most intuitive point is, can this large formation of Dao soldiers formed by many people be more flexible than just individual enemies?
The enemy bombarded them with an attack, and most of the Dao soldiers could only resist forcefully, and dodging would only expose more flaws.
Comparing it with Mrs. Bone, Gouchen Zhizun and others over there, the Daoist formation of the creatures in the Holy Ruins is obviously a soft persimmon in the eyes of the evil spirits outside the sky.
The "giant ape" with eight arms, the "human snake" with wings on its back, the octopus with a bull's head and a human body, a spider with a beautiful upper body and so on.
One by one, the evil spirits from the outer space showed their real bodies, it was like a zoo with all kinds of strange things, and there was no one who looked like a "human" in it.
These grotesque things rushed out of the energy field, some were entangled with the phantom of the Daoist formation, and some went straight to the root of the formation.
To break through the formation of Dao soldiers, there are usually two ways, one is to defeat the phantom head-on, and the other is to enter the formation and kill the Dao soldiers.
It's hard to say which one is easier, but the easier one must be a combination of both.
There are quite a few creatures in the Holy Ruins, but there are not many phantoms condensed in the formation, at least far less than the evil spirits from the sky.
What the evil spirits want is efficiency, and what they want is to solve the obstacles as soon as possible, and rush to the place where the saint is sanctified as soon as possible. Naturally, they spare no effort at this time.
flame!
The wind!
Thunder!
The roar of the explosion!
Between the world of bones and the earth, the Daoist formation of the creatures of the Holy Ruins was almost overwhelmed by various spells, and the illusions burst like bubbles one after another.
In the Daoist formation, the creatures of the Holy Ruins fell like raindrops, like a swarm of bees sprayed by flames.
The creatures of the Holy Ruins can be resurrected, but after being resurrected, it will take a certain amount of time to rush over from a distance.
It seems that the completion of the evil spirit outside the sky is just around the corner.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in the void, clinging to the back of an extraterrestrial demon that looked like a "tauren", and overlapped with its figure in an instant.
The "Tauren" didn't even have time to let out a miserable cry, the huge body shriveled up, and finally turned into fly ash and scattered in the air.
In the flying ash, two wisps of purple air were revealed.
Before others could see clearly, a burst of mana suddenly protruded from the void, and the two wisps of purple energy were sucked into the void and disappeared.
Obviously, the "Tauren" is not very strong, otherwise there would not be only such two wisps of purple energy.
And the black shadow that made the shot is naturally the incarnation of the Dao of Gou Chen Zhizun and others.
The incarnation of the Dao is not strong, the key depends on where it is used, only the right medicine can fight big with small.
It can be said that in order to plot against these evil spirits outside the sky and snatch the purple qi in their hands, the avatars of the Dao used by the ascetics are all insidious.
There is no need to talk about morals in the world to fight evil spirits!
Similarly, when it comes to dealing with extraterrestrial demons, no ascetics are foolish enough to say whether they are upright or not.
Doing everything you can is justified!
Therefore, the Way of Shadow, the Way of Cursed Killing, the Way of Blood Poison, etc., became the best choice to become the incarnation of Dao at this time.
Of course, even if this is the case, you still have to pick a weaker opponent first.
The evil spirits outside the sky can be regarded as "coming out with all their nests", and it is possible that only those who maintain the operation are left in the war fortress and mobile fortress.
Their strengths vary, the strong ones can compete with Supreme Master Gou Chen, while the weak ones can't even handle the phantom of the Daoist formation.
The "Tauren" who was assassinated just now is one of the last ones in terms of strength, so the amount of purple energy in his hand is not much.
In fact, from the appearance of the demons outside the sky, one can probably see the level of strength.
To put it simply, the less human, the more powerful, and the more human, the weaker.
Although the "Tauren" has a bull's head on it, his body still has a somewhat human shape, so it's no wonder that his strength ranks at the bottom.
The death of a "Tauren" didn't attract too much attention from the extraterrestrial demons, or they didn't take it too seriously.
How can there be no death in war!
The fight was still going on, and the extraterrestrial demons did not change their strategy. After all, it seemed that there was no problem with this strategy.
Or it can also be said that the demons outside the sky actually have no other good choices.
An extraterrestrial demon, whose body was covered in bone armor like an insect carapace, and whose body was 70 to 80% similar to a human, suddenly burst out rays of light from the gaps in the carapace, and the huge body disintegrated into countless pieces.
Another two wisps of purple air floated out from the broken flesh and blood.
An extraterrestrial demon with two horns on its head, two wings on its back, and a red body, like an abyss demon, vaguely felt that it had sucked a trace of blood, and suddenly the blood boiled and exploded into a cloud of blood.
In the cloud of blood, two wisps of purple air floated up and down like a small boat on the river.
The incarnation of the Dao on the side of the ascetics succeeded repeatedly, and within a short time they snatched more than a dozen wisps of purple energy.
However, on the side of the evil spirits outside the sky, such a loss is not worthless.
When the two sides are fighting, whoever wins and loses depends not on who loses the most, but on who achieves the strategic goal.
From a small point of view, after some fights, the ascetics managed to snatch a few wisps of purple energy as they wished, which seems to have achieved their goal.
But the problem is that the ascetics are here to fight against the evil spirits outside the sky, what they really need to do is to stop the evil spirits outside the sky from advancing.
So did they do it?
It can't be said that it didn't do it at all, but the effect is indeed limited, especially after the extraterrestrial demon changed its strategy.
In other words, although the evil spirits outside the sky suffered a loss, they also successfully accelerated the speed of advancement.
The creatures of the Holy Ruins were massacred, and even if they could be resurrected, there was still a time lag.
Just like the "water in the pool" problem in elementary school mathematics, water is poured in and out, when is it full, and when is it finished.
You put the water here faster than the water, just like the creatures of the Holy Ruins were killed faster than they can be resurrected, then this full pool of water will eventually be emptied.
Zhizun Gouchen and the others were originally invincible to the Outer Heaven Demon, and they relied on the power of the creatures of the Holy Ruins to slow down the Outer Heaven Demon.
Without the help of the creatures of the Holy Ruins, the ascetics would not be able to say that the mantis is blocking the car, but it is indeed difficult to block the evil spirits from the sky.
"Fellow daoists, I can turn the world upside down for a while, or stop this evil spirit from outside the sky!"
Seeing that the situation is not good, probably seeing that other people don't seem to have a good way, the Tongtian Supreme with the Dao name Yuanmiao took the initiative to say to everyone.
Of course, the meaning here is also obvious.
If it is a method that can be used easily by one person, he doesn't need to speak to everyone first, he can just use it directly like Gou Chen Zhizun, Mrs. Bone and others.
Having said that, if it is a method that can be used by one person, it may be difficult to stop the evil spirits from outside the sky.
"What kind of cooperation do you need from me, fellow daoist, just give orders!"
Gou Chen Zhizun also answered without any nonsense.
"It only needs a few fellow daoists to enter this formation, and all the defenders of the formation will work together to cast spells."
When Supreme Yuan Miao said this, he raised his hand to sacrifice a stone plate. The stone plate turned a few times in mid-air, and turned into a rather wide stone platform in a blink of an eye.
The stone platform seems to be made of jade, with criss-cross patterns engraved on it, like a chessboard magnified many times.
"I just don't know how long this big formation can stop the evil spirits from outside the sky?"
Mrs. Bones asked a little worriedly.
Everyone knows that it is impossible to expect a large formation to completely block the evil spirits from outside the sky.
This is not a question of self-confidence, but a clear understanding of reality.
"If you use all your strength, I'm afraid you can only block it for a few hours!"
Supreme Yuan Miao confessed to everyone, but he didn't feel any embarrassment.
Strictly speaking, blocking the evil spirits outside the sky for a few hours is not too short, but it's just "useless" to put it here.
"I don't have to rely entirely on the big formation, I just need to wait until the creatures of the Holy Ruins regroup."
Zhizun Gou Chen was not disappointed at all, and even thought of a safer way to use it.
