#778 - Cause and effect!
When living beings become powerful to a certain extent, they can completely exploit loopholes like the Heavenly Dao.
But the Great Dao is different.
The so-called Three Thousand Great Daos doesn't mean the limit is exactly three thousand.
This is just a general description, the same principle as 'Dao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, three produces all things.'
Saying Three Thousand Great Daos is actually meant to express boundlessness and immeasurability!
Therefore, no living being can exploit loopholes in the Great Dao; at least, no such thing has ever been heard of.
The situation of Hongjun exploiting the Heavenly Dao's loopholes is known to any cultivator with a little knowledge.
And a powerful being capable of exploiting the Great Dao would definitely not be unknown!
The lightning tribulations Qin Yi receives each time are controlled by the Heavenly Dao, but they are also inseparable from the Great Dao.
Therefore, it is said that this lightning tribulation is a manifestation of the Heavenly Dao and the Great Dao.
Qin Yi asked, "What about the second source?"
The system said with a smile that was not quite a smile: [I won't tell you the second source yet. I'll give you some hints to see if my not-so-bright host can guess it.]
[Host, what kind of object is the Taiji Diagram? What kind of object is the Pangu Banner? And the Chaos Clock!]
Thoughts swirled in Qin Yi's mind, and suddenly his eyes widened like copper bells:
"The Taiji Diagram is the Supreme Lord Laozi's accompanying treasure, the Pangu Banner is the Primordial Heavenly Lord's accompanying treasure, and the Chaos Clock is the Eastern Emperor Taiyi's accompanying treasure."
"System, are you saying that the second source is inseparable from them?"
The system said: [Host, your brain isn't completely useless!]
Hearing what the system said, Qin Yi became even more puzzled.
Qin Yi said, "System, how could the Supreme Lord Laozi and the Primordial Heavenly Lord possibly interfere with the Heavenly Dao?"
The system said: [Hongjun can merge with the Heavenly Dao. How could the Supreme Lord Laozi and the Primordial Heavenly Lord, as saints, not be able to interfere with the Heavenly Dao?]
With the system's reminder, Qin Yi instantly understood and murmured, "Ah, why didn't I think of that!"
"Hongjun is also a saint. Even if saints have strengths and weaknesses, they are all saints in the end!"
"Is it not possible for the Primordial Heavenly Lord and the Supreme Lord Laozi to interfere with the Heavenly Dao?"
At this moment, another doubt surfaced in Qin Yi's mind: "What about the Chaos Clock?"
"Didn't the Eastern Emperor Taiyi fall long ago? How could he still interfere with the Heavenly Dao? Besides, he's not a saint."
The system said: [Host, I've already told you the source of the Thunder series items. As for the Chaos Clock, you need to continuously improve your cultivation to understand it.]
It was this answer again. Qin Yi was basically immune to this answer in his heart.
As his cultivation improved, the doubts in his heart were indeed gradually resolved...
If these doubts were told to Qin Yi at that time, it would not have been of any benefit to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi stopped dwelling on the question of the Chaos Clock. If the system didn't say it, he couldn't force the system to tell him.
Anyway, after his cultivation improved, everything would be clear.
Taking advantage of the system's willingness to answer some questions for him, Qin Yi continued to ask, "What about the Thunder Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda?"
"The owner of this pagoda is Li Jing, the Grand Marshal of the Ancient Primordial Heavenly Court. When could he interfere with the Heavenly Dao?"
The system said: [I say, host, is your head made of wood?]
[I just praised you for being smart, and you ask such a question. It really makes me feel like I praised a dog!]
Qin Yi: "..."
Qin Yi, with a face full of black lines, had veins throbbing on his forehead.
If he didn't need the system to answer his questions, he would definitely retort!
Regardless of whether the system would use Purple Firmament Divine Lightning to strike him, he had to retort! Anyway, he had to retort!
Unfortunately, the reality was that Qin Yi needed to beg the system to answer his questions!
If he annoyed the system at this time, there would definitely be no good outcome!
What if the system got angry? Wouldn't he have no place to regret it!
In response, Qin Yi could only force a smile and say, "Great system, you are right, I am a wooden head! Please tell me the real reason!"
The system obviously did not expect Qin Yi's performance. After a moment of愣, it said:
[Originally, I would not bother to answer such a trivial matter for you, but considering that your attitude is not bad.]
[This system will be merciful and tell you!]
[That Thunder Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda is just a test by the Heavenly Dao and these few saints!]
Qin Yi said, "A test?"
With a thought, Qin Yi thought of the Thunder Azure Luan and immediately said, "Is that Thunder Azure Luan also a test?"
The system said: [Host, you have learned to infer other things from one instance!]
[That Thunder Azure Luan is indeed a test. It is a trap set by the Heavenly Dao and the saints behind it to try to trick out everything about you!]
Qin Yi recalled his conversation with Azure Luan at that time.
That Azure Luan took the initiative to say that it wanted to enter the Small Thousand World, and also said that it knew Qin Yi's origin and could resolve Qin Yi's doubts, etc.
At that time, Qin Yi specifically asked the system how to deal with this matter.
The system told Qin Yi to do as the Thunder Azure Luan said.
As a result, after entering the Small Thousand World, before the Thunder Azure Luan could do anything.
It was turned into an egg by the restrictions in the Small Thousand World, and it is still lying in the Small Thousand World.
Today, through the conversation with the system, Qin Yi understood all the causes and consequences and sorted them out.
Thinking about it, it was true. Qin Yi had the system by his side. No matter which saint the Thunder Azure Luan was sent by, even the most powerful Hongjun.
There was absolutely no way he could know Qin Yi's origin and have the ability to resolve the doubts in Qin Yi's heart!
The reason for saying this was nothing more than to somehow deduce the existence of the Small Thousand World and want to enter the Small Thousand World to find out.
Then use some means to force Qin Yi to confess the system behind him, etc.
But they never expected that the system would be so powerful that all Thunder items would completely lose their function after entering the Small Thousand World!
In this way, the so-called test was declared a failure and had no meaning at all.
Qin Yi believed what the system said from the bottom of his heart.
Qin Yi's today is absolutely inseparable from the system. If there was no system by his side.
How could Qin Yi have mixed into such a position so quickly, and his cultivation and combat power far exceeded his peers!
The system has made Qin Yi, how could Qin Yi doubt the system because of a little clue.
Besides, if the system wanted to attack him, it would have attacked long ago, even if he had a hundred lives, it would not be enough!
Qin Yi really couldn't find any point on his body that was worthy of the system's plot!
Thoughts kept surging in his mind, Qin Yi said, "System, listening to what you said, are they targeting me?"
The system said: [Host, what do you say?]
[Everything in the myriad worlds is under the control of the Heavenly Dao. Now there is you, a peerless evildoer who crushes all the living beings in the ancient primordial world and the myriad worlds! How could they not pay attention to you?]
[From the lightning tribulations you have experienced these few times, don't you understand?]
[The lightning tribulations of ordinary cultivators have a limit, and there is always a glimmer of life left behind.]
[Look at the lightning tribulations you have experienced these few times, is there any glimmer of life left for you?]
[If it weren't for me, you would have died under this lightning tribulation long ago!]
Qin Yi nodded and said, "That's true! What should I do now?"
The system said: [Eat when you should eat, sleep when you should sleep, don't think so much.]
Qin Yi said, "Uh, what I mean is, what if they come to my door? Wouldn't the consequences be disastrous?"
The system said: [Come to your door? With me here, I don't think they dare!]
[If they really don't know how to be grateful and come to my door, then don't blame this system for being ruthless!]
The system's words gave Qin Yi great psychological comfort and security!
With these words from the system, Qin Yi could basically ignore the pressure from the saints.
At the same time, Qin Yi also understood that the lightning tribulations he experienced were stronger and more outrageous each time.
It was entirely because the Heavenly Dao and the saints behind it were testing the true strength of the system through him!
If the system did not show the ability to protect Qin Yi in the middle of this, Qin Yi would probably be caught and used as a white mouse for vivisection in the next moment.
At the same time, Qin Yi said, "System, so the pills for transcending the tribulation were made by you?"
The system said: [Hehe~ You found out about this, it was indeed made by this system!]
[Besides this system, who else can keep you immortal for a short time?]
[Host, this system is telling you, you still have to spend the system mall points you should spend, not a single point less!]
[Don't even think about me giving you a discount, or not spending money! If you really do this, this system will definitely let you experience what the four words 'life is worse than death' mean!]
Hearing the system's threatening tone, Qin Yi smiled brightly and said, "How could I be that kind of person."
The system said: [Yes! You are that kind of host!]
Don't mention it, Qin Yi really had thought about not exchanging pills for transcending the tribulation in the future, and letting the system forcibly protect him.
Unfortunately, this plan was broken by the system before it could be implemented! It could only die in the womb!
After this doubt in his heart was resolved, Qin Yi said, "System, you haven't said why the Thunder Pangu Axe has a stronger prospect than the Pangu Axe."
The system said: [Isn't it still necessary to popularize knowledge for you, a noob host, so that you won't be sold out by someone someday and still count money for them!]
Through this conversation, Qin Yi had a new understanding of his situation.
Qin Yi decisively offered a flattering remark and said, "Thank you, great master!"
The system was very satisfied with this and gave a very enjoyable "hmm!"
