Chapter 481 - 10: Master of One Path, Moonlight Flowing Like Nectar
"Yes! Why would He give up His own path?"
Xiluo was never a fool; she immediately understood the implication of Li Boyang’s words.
Clearly, following the normal process, that Transformed Taoist could have become the "Master of One Path," an eternal Moon God.
Just like if Li Boyang hadn’t given up the [Creation Jade Disc].
By now, he would be the eternal Lord of Heavenly Dao, the God of Time who governs the river of time.
But the problem was, Li Boyang gave up the [Creation Jade Disc] for all living beings, not wanting to rule for eternity.
Being a Path Seeker and giving up one’s path was never a mutually exclusive choice.
Just as Li Boyang could have continued to prove other paths even while holding the [Creation Jade Disc].
Li Boyang with the [Creation Jade Disc] and without it had vastly different influences on the river of time.
"This is the crux of the problem!"
"A being willing to abandon their path could do anything unexpected."
For Li Boyang, proving the Tao was just a means of infinitely approaching the Dao.
Once successful, the significance of the power gained from proving the Tao was more commemorative than of actual value to Li Boyang.
However, this was limited to persistent Path Seekers like Li Boyang and the Lord of the Netherworld.
In fact, in the eyes of other Transformed Taoists, entrusting themselves to an unchanging concept was already true unification with the Dao.
Even if those Transformed Taoists continued seeking the Tao afterward, they would never abandon their path and power.
"What do you think He wants to do?"
"Or more precisely, what have you calculated?"
Tilting her head slightly, Xiluo looked at the thoughtful Li Boyang and asked.
Familiar with Li Boyang, Xiluo could tell he surely had some guesses.
Fortunately, Xiluo was also used to Li Boyang’s riddles, habitually following up, and then quietly waiting for his guesses and answers.
"It’s not about calculating anything; I’m more curious whether this Pathfinder exists in the past or the future."
Li Boyang’s words made Xiluo’s eyes widen.
"This... isn’t the Pathfinder from our era!?"
Nodding affirmatively, Li Boyang’s next words shocked Xiluo even more.
"If that Pathfinder is from the future, it means He’s tracing back the timeline, attempting to be born in this era."
"If that Pathfinder is from the past, it means He’s trying to end the fate of death, extending His life in our era."
Upon hearing this, Xiluo instinctively questioned.
"Why are you so sure He is already dead?"
"Could it be that the Pathfinder from the past hasn’t just hidden to escape his fate of death and then revived in our era?"
Seeing Xiluo react quickly, Li Boyang humorously teased her, feigning surprise.
"You’re turning quickly this time; it seems your busyness these days has enhanced your mind?"
Before Xiluo could respond angrily, Li Boyang pointed to the Celestial Eye on his forehead and spoke in a calm yet domineering tone.
"If He truly hid, He couldn’t have escaped this eye of mine."
"However, if He successfully changes His fate, that possibility could indeed become reality."
"When the history of the past is changed, our present will naturally change."
"The difference lies in the ’reason’ He uses to revive in our era."
Upon hearing this, Xiluo was initially stunned, then rarely sighed.
"Are you planning to stir up trouble again?"
"Can’t you just stay quietly for a while?"
"If He wants to prove the Tao, let Him; wasn’t that why you gave up the ’Creation Jade Disc’ back then?"
With a smile, Li Boyang blinked and tilted his head to ask.
"Aren’t you curious about His identity?"
"Besides, if He’s just proving the Tao, I wouldn’t stop Him."
"But those hidden feral tendencies in the Moonlight Essence Qi, I don’t believe you’re unaware of them."
...........................
As Li Boyang and Xiluo conversed, the phase of the moon in the sky changed once again.
Today is the fifteenth of July, the day the Ghost Gate opens.
Thus, when the moon in the sky became full, reaching the perfect state of a full moon.
The nearly materialized Moonlight Essence Qi descended like a rain curtain from the sky, illuminating the original night sky into silver.
With silver threads cascading one after another, falling from the moon to the mortal realm.
The demon fiends hidden in the night also revealed themselves at this moment, gazing up at the brilliant silver moon like a disk.
"Howl!"
"Roar!"
"Scream!"
...
When the rising howls spread across the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.
The same scene occurred in every place under the Nine Provinces and the Eight Desolate Islands.
As if a benevolent God was bestowing grace upon all beings, the flowing Moonlight Essence Qi descended, bringing a distinct vitality to the earth.
Every being that touched the Moonlight Essence Qi, whether animal or plant, basked in joy and enjoyment at this moment.
Animals became more robust, their intelligence more prominent.
Plants were forcibly awakened to spiritual wisdom, freed from the instincts of growth and reproduction.
The Innate Divine and Gods, similarly stirred by this scene, felt it more acutely and precisely.
Basking in the Moonlight Essence Qi, they clearly sensed their powers growing, as if they had gained several years of growth in an instant.
No, perhaps using "growth" isn’t accurate.
Since growth has its limits, confined by potential and extremes.
But under the boost of Moonlight Essence Qi, the previous bottlenecks that obstructed them seemed to vanish entirely, breaking through seamlessly.
"This..."
Looking up at the sky, Lord Tingyao at Zhenhe Peak spread his four arms.
That majestic body stood at the sole entrance to the Hundred Lands Grand Canal, devouring all the Moonlight Essence Qi within hundreds of meters like a Taotie.
Under such a plundering consumption, the Life Essence Qi within Lord Tingyao grew at an almost unimaginable speed.
In mere moments, Lord Tingyao’s body expanded somewhat.
"Truly incredible!"
"Is this another technique of that Celestial Being?"
"Is He no longer preaching the Great Way? Has He switched to directly enhancing the path of all beings?"
To say, Lord Tingyao hasn’t consumed few pills over the years.
Especially after forming a deal with Ling Guzi, even pills containing the ’Innate Qi’ were consumed aplenty.
But Lord Tingyao never imagined he would one day enhance his life potential at such a terrifying speed.
After a simple estimation, Lord Tingyao realized an outrageous fact.
If this Moonlight Essence Qi continues for a whole night.
The enhancement gained in that night would surpass all the pills consumed before.
This is an effect of quantitative change leading to qualitative change, which sounds incredibly exaggerated.
