Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

Li Duotian's punch landed about a fist's width behind the invisible wall, and the entire invisible wall began to materialize because of Li Duotian's punch!

It must be said that this replica of Pangu is no less powerful than the real Pangu!

However, Li Xiu was not happy too soon. Although he had used brute force to make the air wall visible, that was all. The resilience of the air wall far exceeded Li Xiu's imagination!

"Li Duotian, use a little more force!" Li Xiu said, refusing to believe it.

However, no matter how hard Li Duotian tried, the position of the invisible wall remained fixed in place, and the only thing he could see was that the shape of the wall was becoming more and more realistic.

Upon seeing the sunken wall, Li Xiu gasped in shock.

Just how grand is this? They even engraved patterns on the outermost layer of the barrier!

Indeed, this invisible wall is also engraved with ancient forbidden patterns.

What to do? Looking at the air wall that Li Duotian couldn't advance an inch no matter how hard he tried, Li Xiu was also at a loss.

They had no choice but to tell Li Duotian to slowly pull his fist back first, and then they could discuss the matter further.

Just as Li Duotian slowly pulled his fist outward, the long-silent Holy Buddha System suddenly spoke!

"An epic opportunity has been detected. The system is being activated again."

"Damn it, you actually stepped forward at this time." Li Xiu cursed the unreliable system in his heart.

At this moment, Li Duotian's fist had been completely pulled out of the air wall. Having experienced being bounced away before, this time he slowly pulled it out without being bounced away.

However, the invisible wall did not disappear into the air again; instead, it became brighter and brighter, and even the magnificent, totem-like patterns on it began to become clear.

Looking at the incredible scenes before him, Li Xiu asked himself a question.

"System, what kind of ancient relic is this?"

This time, the system didn't keep you in suspense and answered, "To be precise, there are two inheritances here."

"What? Two inheritances? Does that mean I'm going to defy the heavens?"

Upon hearing the system's reply, even the usually composed Li Xiu was momentarily stunned. He was certain that the inheritance here was extraordinary, but he hadn't expected it to be doubled, becoming two separate paths!

Chapter 1282 Pangu's Essence Blood

"Whose legacy is this? System," Li Xiu asked again.

What Li Xiu imagined was a battle between the world's top powers, a fight to the death where both sides perished and together formed a legacy cave.

The system's cold voice came through, slowly explaining, "Please look at the Chaos Green Lotus, Master."

"See it? Is there anything different?"

"Did you notice the blood-red patterns on the blue lotus, Master?"

"Do you see it? Whose blood is that?"

“That’s right, those blood-red patterns are the essence and blood of Pangu, the creator of the world.”

Li Xiu was completely stunned. He had just watched Pangu create the world, but he never expected that this guy would force out his own essence and blood and actually create this thing.

The system continued, "And that lotus heart is formed from the essence of Pangu's blood and the essence of this Chaos Green Lotus, its effects far exceeding those of the two things themselves."

Li Xiu was somewhat stunned. This was a gift from heaven, which further strengthened his determination to break the restriction.

"By the way, didn't you say there were two? Whose is the other one?" Li Xiu asked.

After all, if it can be compared to the bloodline inheritance of Pangu, then that guy's inheritance must be pretty good too.

The system replied, "Master, please look at where the lotus heart grows."

Li Xiu's gaze followed the system's prompt. Although the lotus was covered in blood-red patterns, the rootstock at its base was exceptionally clear, a stark contrast to the clear lake.

"Could there be a mystery hidden beneath that small lake where the Chaos Lotus grows?" Li Xiu wondered.

"No, Master, this lake itself is a tremendous opportunity!" the system said.

As if sensing its master's shock, the system slowly explained.

"Master, aren't you curious why Mount Buzhou, which stands between heaven and earth, can be reversed at its summit, and why there are other mysteries hidden within the mountain?"

"Why?" Li Xiu asked, curious after hearing what the system said.

"Because this mountaintop was once knocked down!" The system's opening statement was astonishing.

Hearing the system's words, Li Xiu was somewhat bewildered. He wasn't unfamiliar with the myths surrounding the creation of the world. Gonggong's angry collision with Buzhou Mountain happened many years later, and he himself had just arrived when the world was being created. How could everything be so chaotic?

The system explained, "This world is largely the same as the world at the beginning of time, but there are always some discrepancies."

"The time barrier has been broken too many times, and the turbulence has affected the spacetime trajectory during the time travel. Please understand that there are some errors."

Hearing the system's explanation, Li Xiu didn't say much. It seemed he would have to make some adjustments to his plans.

"Let's continue, what exactly is going on with this lake?" Li Xiu steered the conversation back to the main topic, saying they could discuss the rest later.

The system explained the whole story in detail. "After Gonggong knocked down Buzhou Mountain, his own energy was completely exhausted, and the spirit of the water god fell at that time, which happened to fall into Buzhou Mountain."

"So, this lake is the heart of the water god?"

“That’s right.” The system nodded in a human-like manner.

"So what exactly is this thing used for?" Li Xiu asked the question that concerned him the most. The name of this treasure sounded pretty impressive, but its effectiveness was the most important thing.

"The foundation-building effect of the Heart of the Water God is unmatched by any other treasure in the world."

The system's first sentence left Li Xiu speechless.

Chapter 1283 Breaking the First Restriction

Just when I was about to doze off, someone handed me a pillow. The Heart of the Water God is exactly what I need right now!

"Be more specific, be more specific," Li Xiu continued.

"The Heart of the Water God can purify all impurities in the body, truly returning to simplicity and the origin, and also has the effect of strengthening the body."

"Because of Gonggong, the power he possesses will also be enhanced by the Heart of the Water God."

"This time it's really going to take off!" Li Xiu exclaimed.

Descending into the primordial world was precisely to find one's true self and break free from the final shackles that bound them.

These two inheritances are a perfect start. If Li Xiu can't achieve this, then all his cultivation and world travels will have been in vain.

After gathering his thoughts, Li Xiu asked, "System, how do I break this restriction?"

This time, the system didn't tell Li Xiu directly, but instead said, "The solution lies in the restriction itself."

"Such a tremendous opportunity, the system's intervention will affect the world's future development. It all depends on you, master."

"However, if the master can obtain the Pangu Gonggong inheritance with 100% certainty, the Merit Shop will be reactivated, and this time it will be the highest level Merit Shop."

After saying this, the Holy Buddha System fell silent, as if it had never appeared before.

After processing the message from the system, Li Xiu's eyes cleared again. Yes, to break through the limits, in the end, it all depends on one's own strength. Let this be the initial trial!

With countless memories of Chinese civilization in his mind, Li Xiu was not completely ignorant of these patterns and totems.

Li Xiu began searching his mind, because he knew that any similar totem must have been inherited from this original totem!

Once you find these similar totems and trace back to the original totem, the answer will emerge, and everything will be solved!

Li Xiu walked towards the solidified air wall, the first barrier, and examined it carefully.

It must be said that this is absolutely the most complex totem pattern in Li Xiu's memory.

From bull-headed human figures to various dragons and human-headed deities, all of these are present, and what's most terrifying is that these deities are subtly connected to each other.

Li Xiu was also overwhelmed. He quickly closed his eyes, shook his head, and said, "Now is not the time to think about the connections between these things. Let's decipher each small totem first."

"Li Duotian, come here and lift it up for me. I want to start by looking at the top one," Li Xiu said.

"Yes, Master."

Li Duotian's body also grew slightly larger, giving Li Xiu the most comfortable height so that he could observe the mystery of the first restriction.

In the upper left corner of this restriction is a five-clawed golden dragon with wide-open, angry eyes. However, this golden dragon is missing a horn from one of its claws.

This small gap was immediately noticed by Li Xiu, who quickly spoke to Li Duotian below.

"Li Duotian, use your axe to draw a square on the ground that corresponds to the proportions of this restriction, and draw a circle in the position I indicated."

Chapter 1284 Prohibition

"The first circle is in the upper left corner of the barrier, one foot away from both the left and top edges."

“Master, it’s finished,” Li Duotian replied.

"Okay, next, move your body two steps to the right," Li Xiu instructed from above.

Clearly, Li Xiu already had a complete method to break the restriction in his mind. If his guess was correct, the missing parts of these totems would be the key to breaking the entire restriction!

Over the next few days, Li Xiu and Li Duotian studied the totems on the restriction tirelessly, and the clues became clearer and clearer.

"The last one is in the lower right corner of the barrier, where the sphinx is missing its left eye. It is located half a foot from the right and one foot from the bottom edge."

“It’s finished, Master,” Li Duotian replied.

Upon hearing Li Duotian's words, Li Xiu jumped off Li Duotian's body and went to the diagram of the missing part of the restriction totem that Li Duotian had drawn.

Looking at the densely packed circles in front of him, Li Xiu gasped.

It's not because they're too dense, but because these circles just happen to form a picture!
