After the door was slightly closed, the sound inside the shop diminished significantly.
Xu Xiaoshou did not follow inside. He stood under the setting sun, listening to the commotion within, touched yet completely detached.
"Ti Dao Disc (43%)."
"Ti Dao Disc (44%)."
"..."
He proceeded systematically along the Ti Dao Disc, never losing sight of his original intentions.
He was rely seeking enlightennt, walking along the river of ti, and reliving the past.
In fact, even Xu Xiaoshou himself felt that his previous self and his current personality were too similar, both having a bit of cheekiness.
But he also understood.
He is him, and I am .
Just like the constant interruptions from Jin Ren’s worldly insights that tried to break his epiphany state.
If he fully imrsed himself, treating "him" as "," perhaps being trapped would be the outco, and Kong Yuhen’s past would be the lesson.
Walking the river of ti, if one’s heart and Dao heart are unstable, it is easy to get lost.
So then...
"Ti, or is it sothing else?"
Each advancent on the Ti Dao Disc progress bar brought different answers.
This ti, gazing at the setting sun, thinking of the old and the young.
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly realized that ti is youth, inheritance, the still-pumping hot blood, and the gradually calming aging.
But do these truly represent the entirety of ti?
The insights given by the Ti Dao Disc were incomparably clear, and each was a definitive answer.
Xu Xiaoshou gained a lot, but due to gaining too much, he instead found himself at a loss, unable to see through or comprehend the essence and totality of ti.
"Not enough!"
"Continue pushing forward!"
Balancing the Profound Dao Seed while waiting outside the shop.
Soon, voices from within erged again, the old and young harmonizing, nurturing the most fair new birth under the dinsion of ti.
"Blood!"
"Coming, Old Li, how much do you need? For sothing that doesn’t cost Spirit Crystals, I’ll provide plenty!"
"Then fill it up."
"Uh, I was just joking..."
"Heh heh, wasn’t it ’fill it up’... wait, why are you slitting your wrist, Xu Xiaoshou, are you trying to commit suicide? Blood Refining, we need blood essence!"
"Blood essence?"
"You don’t even know how to extract blood essence? I give up, a Spiritual Cultivation Level Three rookie, how do you plan to break through to Level Four like this?"
"Hey, Old Li, how did you know I was planning to undergo Death Seclusion to break through to Level Four?"
"Youngster, don’t go around talking about death like it’s nothing."
"What’s the deal? Death Seclusion, Death Seclusion, Death Seclusion, I’m just saying, I’m determined! It’s either succeed or beco a martyr!"
"Hah, suit yourself."
"What’s that supposed to an!"
"Avoid doom, understand?"
"Wow! It’s done... Light! Light! Hidden Bitter has succeeded! I’m going to succeed too! Uncle Li, I love you! Mwah mwah mwah~"
...
The surroundings changed again.
At the sa mont Hidden Bitter ca to spiritual life, Xu Xiaoshou left.
He knew the outco, Hidden Bitter’s, and the forr Xu Xiaoshou’s. He suddenly feared his own impulsiveness, afraid of stepping into the shop and disrupting the past.
Respecting ti was also an insight he gained from the Ti Dao Disc.
"Ti is destined."
"Each apparent alteration, modification, has long been predetermined in fate, with a clear price tag."
This inevitably reminded one of Cursed Yin’s reverse inheritance technique forcibly altered reality in the past.
Of course, Xu Xiaoshou had also altered ti.
He found Ai Cangsheng in the past, asked many things, and revealed so secrets.
The cost seed not that great?
Or perhaps soone else helped him bear the cost?
"Ti Dao Disc (50%)."
"Ti Dao Disc (60%)."
"Ti Dao Disc (70%)."
"..."
The Profound Dao Seed continued to supply, passive points spending like flowing water, Xu Xiaoshou continued forward along the river of ti.
He walked from the Outer Yard to the Inner Yard, encountering many old friends.
There was Wen Chong, Feng Kong, Zhang Xinxiong...
Leaving Tiansang Spirit Palace, arriving at Tiansang City, heading to the City Lord Mansion, he ran into many familiar faces.
There were Red Dog, Night Guardian, the son of the City Lord, Fu Xing...
So lives were still vibrant, and so old friends had already passed, prompting Xu Xiaoshou to want to stop several tis.
He felt that just by reaching out, he could touch their lives, just like touching Hidden Bitter.
"Ti is a record, also history."
In the river of ti, nothing could hide.
Xu Xiaoshou did not offend.
Even though he felt so sympathy for the special Senior Red-robed Night Guardian’s encounters under the deep sea, he had done his utmost at the ti, and now chose to respect the outco.
"Is the end of ti death?"
"Then what about the beginning?"
Looking towards the source of the river of ti, it was unclear.
Xu Xiaoshou moved forward resolutely, continuing to wade through the waters, so Tiansang City quickly weathered away, the Eighth Palace arrived as expected, then to the White Cave...
From here, the people he t gradually beca more animated, so even responded to him.
He saw Moonless Sword Deity.
It turned out he had arrived early, with many White-clothed, setting up defenses outside the White Cave.
Gou Wuyue, who kept a low profile, in an unusual eye contact did not turn back to et his gaze surprisingly.
"The Ten High Nobles are indeed strong..."
He entered the White Cave and encountered Yu Zhiwen, together experiencing the ergence of the Fla Python.
Fla Python!
Just like with Hidden Bitter, Xu Xiaoshou did not hesitate, stepping forward to touch this sword, for it was his saber.
"Buzz!"
With a jolt of the spirit, he re-entered the fantasy realm, encountering a Saint with shackled hands and feet, appearing sowhat at a disadvantage.
Not a demi-saint.
He was the Holy Emperor, one of the White Vein Third Ancestors of Abyss Island, the Great Infernal Ancestor!
"Xu Xiaoshou?"
The river of ti matched what Kong Yuhen said, his encountered will here could indeed communicate.
Just uncertain when he might et the War Ancestor...
