Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1553 - 414

Even though my own juice is still a seedling, it's still an immortal herb.In Yu Ziqing's understanding, this is almost the highest rank of living being, yet it doesn't quite exist like a living being.

In fact, because it is too close to the Dao, it cannot roam freely like deities do and can only appear in the form of an immortal herb.

In the past, when Yu Ziqing had conflicts with all the gods and was possessed by deities, my own juice never took the initiative to do anything.

Even if it was to do something, it was Yu Ziqing who would tell stories to the juice to fertilize it and use the juice to achieve some purpose.

In other words, the being that is eroding him this time was able to harness the mystical properties of the immortal herb and indeed has utilized them.

Therefore, it achieved the necessary conditions for the juice to take initiative.

And indeed, Yu Ziqing only felt a kind of uncertainty, an indescribable feeling from beginning to end.

If it weren't for the juice's intervention, and the undying mandala's aid, he most likely wouldn't have figured out what happened.

"Can you contact the juice now?"

"Of course, I've been following Big Brother for so long."

"Ask it if this matter has anything to do with a particular immortal herb?"

"No."

"Then ask again, is it related to the mystery of a particular immortal herb?"

"Yes."

Yu Ziqing took a light breath, quickly reviewing all the information related to immortal herbs in his mind.

Excluding anything related to the juice, or the stories of past times, that might be relevant.

And excluding any information related to the undying mandala.

Finally, there was only the most clear one left.

The immortal herb that was directly related to the evolution of the current world in its prime.

Yu Ziqing felt that he had to find someone to talk to.

The Mountain Lord would be most suitable.

He left the school and headed straight for the Abyss, all the way to the Mountain Abyss.

The Mountain Abyss had changed quite a bit, although it was still full of mountains, the location of the earth's hole had broken into a large hole.

Yu Ziqing stood at the edge and shouted.

"Big Brother, there's something urgent."

The sound drifted downwards, as if some force was preventing Yu Ziqing's voice from spreading, directly gathering and taking away all the sound without a trace.

A moment later, the Mountain Lord appeared from below, stepping into the air. His aura was no longer as overwhelmingly dominant as when Yu Ziqing saw him last, and seemed more introverted, with his brightly shining bald head appearing much more genial.

Only now, Yu Ziqing didn't have the mood to care about the Mountain Lord's differences.

Yu Ziqing took out a table and chairs and began to boil tea and warm wine.

"Big Brother, there are some matters I want to ask you about. I was previously eroded..."

Yu Ziqing roughly explained, speaking of the juice and the undying mandala afterward.

Then he saw densely packed runes appear on the Mountain Lord's shiny head, and a box constructed of a Daoist Pattern emerged from the runes, landing in the Mountain Lord's hand.

The Mountain Lord looked at the box, then at Yu Ziqing.

"These are some memories I sealed away because there were too many things. I was afraid if I knew, there would be problems, so I sealed them all away. This is one of them; it seems it's time."

The Mountain Lord opened his mouth, chewed the box to pieces, and swallowed it.

He closed his eyes for a long time, before slowly opening them.

"I know who is eroding you."

"Who?"

"This has to be said slowly."

The Mountain Lord picked up the teacup, then put it down and directly picked up the wine jug, taking a hearty swig.

"The origin of the current world, I have told you before."

"Yes, I remember, it was an immortal herb in its prime, using everything of a god-king of all gods as nourishment, evolving the current world, overturning the former world, turning it into the Abyss."

"Actually, it was that god-king, the strongest in pure power, whose everything evolved the current world.

Nowadays, the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas of the current world all come from Him.

After He fell, everything of Him transformed into everything of the current world.

Or it could be said that while He was alive, under the influence of the immortal herb, the current world evolved from Him.

Even now, He has not truly died."

Yu Ziqing was slightly shocked, with a phrase flashing through his mind instantly.

The bones formed forests, the body became rivers and seas, blood became the Huai River, hair became plants and trees.

"Were the gods of the past truly this powerful?"

Isn't it absurd to transform the world with one's body, what's even more absurd is that the immortal herb of that peak period could force such a powerful god-king to transform the world with his body.

"Of course, the gods did not have such abilities, and in fact, most gods and deities didn't even have a true body, only a true form.

This one, to be precise, was not a god by birth.

In fact, He was an Ancient God.

Do you think, in the more ancient times, in the era without humans, how the war between Ancient Gods and the gods was won by the gods?

This Ancient God rebelled, transformed into one of the gods, becoming one of the ten god-kings of the gods, which was the most key reason the gods eventually won the war.

So, do you guess who He is now?"

"The one in the deep sea, right?" Yu Ziqing directly said the answer, as there was nothing to guess anymore.

"Right." The Mountain Lord picked up the wine jar, to make things easier, he chewed it along with the wine.

The Mountain Lord chewed through ten jars of wine, let out a long breath, and said with some sentimentality.

"Haven't you always wanted to know why there are only four Divine Dynasties?"

Yu Ziqing stayed silent, listening quietly.

"Because initially, the situation was far from easy.

There was not even time to first use the Divine Dynasty for bearing.

That's why there were eight people, each carrying a word first.

These eight words came from that immortal herb.

The treasure technique corresponds to these eight words.

The first to bear them were Dagen, Dakun, Daxun, and Dakan."

The Mountain Lord paused, with a tinge of pain in his voice.

"Now you should know as well.

First four people bore half, buying time, and then the Divine Dynasties were established, carrying the remaining four directions.

But out of the first four who bore it, only I survived.

Now there is no one, nor any Divine Dynasty, to bear Kun and Xun.

As for Kan..."

The Mountain Lord took a deep breath, his gaze sharp, exhaling with a deep voice.

"Dakan is the deep sea, and the one who bears it is the one in the deep sea.

The current world has never truly completed its evolution.

Even today, it is still stuck at this step."
