Chapter 501: Great Dao Green Lotus
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“How strange. What is this place?” Li Yu was shocked. He could not affect or control his surroundings by using the Heart of Heaven and Earth, the Great Dao Golden Body, and the power of the Primordial Origin True Body.
It was like a place that was not controlled by the Heavenly Dao. It was as if everything had become an illusion, and only he was real.
Fortunately, the system’s guidance was still around, so Li Yu decided to follow it to find the Great Dao Green Lotus.
He could also investigate why this place was so strange.
However, as Li Yu continued forward, light slowly appeared in the dark space in front of him.
Not only that, but his Heart of Heaven and Earth also sensed a scene that shocked him even more.
More than five kilometers away, countless living beings stopped on the spot, just like Concubine Yu, Tai Ri, and the others.
Their expressions and movements were different. Some even jumped up and stopped in midair.
It was as if some sort of divine power had suddenly pressed the pause button. All living beings, matter, laws, and time stopped on the spot.
Li Yu was shocked when he saw this. He vaguely felt that he had touched the truth of the Primordial World’s calamity.
However, what kind of calamity was this? What kind of power could actually stop all time, matter, energy, and laws instantly?
Why was he not affected and could still move around in this space, but he could not touch anything he saw or sensed?
Li Yu continued to fly forward. The space in front of him was no longer dark, and everything he saw and sensed shocked him more and more.
He saw more living beings, many cities and tribes, and many humans and demons in a motionless state.
Li Yu finally realized that the living beings in the Primordial World had not died or disappeared because of the calamity.
Instead, they fell into a motionless state and were trapped in this portion of the territory.
“What happened?” Li Yu was shocked. For some reason, he felt as if he had seen everything in front of him in the past.
He had a strong feeling of déjà vu.
Not only that, but as he continued forward, he slowly saw the familiar scenes, cities, and even familiar faces.
Many broken memories gradually surfaced. Li Yu vaguely recalled the time when he had just arrived in this world. It was as if he had walked through the hundreds of years of his previous life in this short period of time.
Many of the lost memories of his previous life appeared, but Li Yu realized that there were still no memories of the Heroic Spirit Temple.
However, he had memories of the Great Dao Green Lotus.
In his previous life, Li Yu had once obtained a green lotus that he planted in the Divine Pool.
Li Yu guessed that the green lotus was likely the Great Dao Green Lotus he was looking for because the system was pointing in the direction of Kunlun Mountain.
The Divine Pool was located on Kunlun Mountain, the original divine mountain of the Primordial World. It was once the place where the demons and the Magi fought.
The flames of war between the two races did not affect the Divine Mountain at all. Instead, the blood of the demons and the Magi made the Divine Mountain even more extraordinary, especially the pool of water on the mountaintop.
It was said that it was formed from the blood of the demons and the Magi. The Magi and the demons originally came from the same source, so the pool water formed from their blood essence contained the power of the Creation God.
In his previous life, Li Yu transmigrated and appeared on Kunlun Mountain. Later on, he named the divine mountain Kunlun Mountain and the pool at the top of the mountain the Divine Pool.
Kunlun Mountain was Li Yu’s hometown and the place where the human race rose. That place had many extraordinary meanings to the human race and Li Yu.
Before long, Li Yu arrived at Kunlun Mountain.
However, what surprised him was that there was no Great Dao Green Lotus in the Divine Pool of the Kunlun Mountain in front of him. In fact, the scene in the entire Kunlun Mountain and the Divine Pool was basically what Li Yu had when he first arrived in this world in his previous life.
However, right at this moment, Li Yu suddenly heard the cry of a baby. It was especially abrupt in this frozen time and space.
Li Yu’s eyes flashed as he was surprised. He did not know why a baby’s cry suddenly sounded. He followed the sound and saw a baby curled up in the lotus flower.
He was shocked when he saw this because he clearly remembered how it looked when he first arrived in this world.
“This is the Kunlun Mountain when I first arrived in this world!” Li Yu immediately had the answer.
However, he did not know how he had returned to the Kunlun Mountain when he first arrived in this world.
‘Could this be my soul fragment too?’ Li Yu guessed. He remembered himself in the Primordial Space. At that time, he had also seen his soul fragment after sensing everything around him fall into a motionless state.
The only difference was that he did not have the strange feeling from before.
Li Yu quickly approached, wanting to touch his previous self when he was a baby. However, when he approached, everything in front of him seemed to have disappeared as if it was an illusion.
Everything around him became still again, and the Divine Pool became what he knew later on. It was the Divine Pool he had rebuilt.
A green lotus that blotted out the sky and towered into the clouds stood in the pool.
This green lotus was more than a few times larger than when he left. Clearly, this was the Great Dao green lotus he was looking for.
However, when Li Yu reached out to touch the green lotus, everything seemed to be in a different time and space from him. It was like an illusion that he could see but not touch.
Li Yu frowned. His current state was a little strange, and it was different from the feeling in the Primordial Space.
He closed his eyes slightly and tried to find the strange feeling he had in the Primordial Space to see if he could see his soul fragment again.
However, no matter how he searched for that feeling, he could no longer see the soul fragment in that baby state.
Li Yu shook his head slightly and opened his eyes. He gave up on searching for his soul fragment and began to think about how to obtain the Great Dao Green Lotus.
“Why can’t I touch it? Has everything around me become illusory, or am I…” Li Yu fell into deep thought.
Perhaps it was as he had guessed. He could not touch anything else because he had become an illusory existence or entered a strange plane.
He was in the plane where the soul fragment was, so if he could think of a way to leave this place, he might be able to touch the Great Dao green lotus.
Therefore, he reached out again and touched the Great Dao Green Lotus. Then, he closed his eyes and searched for the strange feeling of entering the latitude of the soul fragment in the past to do the opposite.
Indeed, before long, Li Yu felt as if he had touched the Great Dao Green Lotus. Gradually, he could even sense the veins and vitality of the Great Dao Green Lotus.
“Ding… successful collection of the Great Dao Green Lotus!” The system’s voice suddenly sounded. At the same time, Li Yu realized that everything around him had moved again.
Time began to flow, and the laws and the power of heaven and earth began to circulate. Everything returned to normal. However, the living beings he had sensed earlier, and the familiar people, had all disappeared on the spot.
It was as if everything he had seen earlier was an illusion.
