There is a beast in the bright morning.

Chapter 251 Yin and Yang

Hao Chen sat cross-legged atop the mountain peak, enveloped by a substance resembling flames, making him appear as if he were engulfed in flames.

But this is not real fire; it is the light of the Great Dao, formed from fragments of the laws.

A moment later, Hao Chen dissipated the light of the Great Dao, shaking his head in disappointment: "I still feel like something's missing. Could it be that I didn't get to touch the lychee today and didn't bring myself good luck?"

Ever since his encounter with Lychee that day, Hao Chen wanted to test whether Lychee's luck-enhancing talent would have any effect on him, so on his way back he tried to comprehend the laws of the Great Dao.

As a result, Hao Chen discovered the difference: after touching the Lychee Valley, he could easily enter a state of harmony with the universe, as if aided by heaven.

Perhaps this world has fallen into annihilation, causing the laws of the Great Dao to be obscured.

Even if Hao Chen enters a state of oneness with heaven and man, he will not be able to quickly find Chen Ying's imprint among the many Great Dao Laws.

In order to prolong his buff, Hao Chen had no choice but to reach for the lychee again, trying to find a way to get some of its good luck buff.

"Lychee, Zhuangzhuang told me you really like the celestial dew that's full of spiritual energy. This is something I collected from Dongshan, and I'm giving it to you."

"Litchi Zhuangzhuang, here are two movie tickets for you."

"Litchi, I heard Zhuangzhuang has been working very hard lately. This is chicken soup made from four different kinds of meat. Please take it back for Zhuangzhuang to help him recover."

……

By giving lychees as gifts, Hao Chen could always find an opportunity to touch them. After receiving the lychee's lucky charm, his attempts to sense the Dao of Heaven and Earth would be twice as effective.

However, because Hao Chen touched Lychee every few days, her fur turned black much faster than it could recover, and her original pink fur never returned to its original color.

This made Lizhi dislike Haochen, and even somewhat afraid of him, directly designating Haochen as the number one untouchable beast, ranking him far above the straw dog.

Later, when Hao Chen tried to touch Li Zhi to get some good luck, Li Zhi would immediately turn around and leave without saying a word as soon as she saw him. Sometimes, Li Zhi would even go out to hide as soon as she sensed that Hao Chen was coming.

"Sigh, we can't use the lychee here. I don't know if the other Qilins will work. How about we try Pi Qixing another day? Or maybe we can try the First Qilin?"

The thought of bringing roast chicken to find Lychee this morning, only to have her refuse to see him, made Hao Chen feel exhausted. Did he really look that scary?

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll try one more time and then go home."

Hao Chen shook his head, dispelling the distracting thoughts in his mind, and focused on comprehending the meaning.

After so many days of effort, he was able to sense the faint mark left by Chen Ying.

"Heaven and earth are boundless, and the universe borrows from them. All laws and paths originate from the same source."

Hao Chen's entire primordial spirit was glowing; in an instant, the sound of the Great Dao resounded around him, and countless law runes intertwined.

The yin and yang energies permeated the air, and a massive phantom appeared behind Hao Chen.

But the phantom quickly shrunk to the size of an ordinary person and stood quietly behind Hao Chen.

Hao Chen was unaware of this; he only knew that his perception speed had increased at this moment, and he quickly found a special path among the many paths.

Boom.

Hao Chen trembled all over, as if something inside him was awakening.

"The Great Dao is boundless, a primordial chaos of Yin and Yang!"

The universe, with its myriad paths, nurtures and shapes all living beings!

As if a deity was whispering in his ear, Hao Chen felt as if he had entered a state of chaos.

"here it is……"

"Chaos, the birthplace of gods and demons, and the burial place of chaotic beings."

Before Hao Chen could take a few more glances, a voice rang out behind him, startling him so much that he jumped three feet high.

"Who are you?" Hao Chen looked warily at the shadowy figure behind him, not even noticing when it had appeared behind him.

If the other party had attacked him just now, he probably wouldn't have even had a chance to react.

Just thinking about this situation made Hao Chen break out in a cold sweat.

Seemingly sensing Hao Chen's nervousness, the illusory figure smiled faintly: "Don't be nervous, I won't attack you for now."

When the phantom smiled, Hao Chen suddenly felt that it looked familiar; the smile and the face seemed to have been seen somewhere before.

But Hao Chen quickly realized that the phantom had said "temporarily," meaning that the phantom was not without malice. On the contrary, the phantom was like a sword hanging over Hao Chen's head, which could fall at any moment.

"Who are you? What do you want here?" Hao Chen asked as he slowly backed away, creating distance between himself and the illusory figure.

"My origins are so ancient, so ancient, that I've almost forgotten them myself?"

The phantom spoke with an ancient tone, as if it had traveled through countless ages: "You may call me Yin Yang, the Chaos Demon God Yin Yang."

Before Hao Chen could think it over, Yin Yang continued, "Qian Kun and I were once good friends, but we both perished at the hands of a peerless expert."

Qiankun awakened his past life memories before I did, and thus created this world to help me return.

The information in Yin Yang's words was too much for Hao Chen to process at first, but he quickly grasped the key point: this world was created by Qian Kun, which meant that the Qian Kun mentioned by Yin Yang was Chen Ying?!

This world was created to restore the balance of Yin and Yang. Could it be that I am what this restoration of Yin and Yang is needed?

Thinking of this, Hao Chen felt a chill run down his spine: "You damn Chen Ying, you wouldn't actually be after me, would you?!"

Faced with an unknown enemy, Hao Chen's first instinct was to flee, but he was horrified to find that he couldn't move.

"what did you do to me?"

Hao Chen tried to use divine power to break the seal, but found that he could not sense the presence of divine power. This discovery made Hao Chen somewhat panicked.

"Okay, don't be nervous. I'll ask you a question. If you answer it to my satisfaction, I'll consider not taking your body. Otherwise, your body will belong to me."

The voice of Yin and Yang seemed to possess a special magic, soothing the panic in Hao Chen's heart.

"go ahead."

Although Hao Chen really wanted to refuse, since whether or not the other party was satisfied was not up to them, he had no choice but to agree.

"If you had unparalleled power right now, what would you most want to do?" Yin Yang stared intently at Hao Chen and said, "Don't hesitate, just tell me your true thoughts right now."

For some reason, Hao Chen actually sensed tension in the Yin-Yang aspect, which he found laughable, because he should be the one feeling tense at this moment.

The mystery of Yin and Yang made Hao Chen blurt out without much thought: "If I had unparalleled power, what I would want most is to live a life surrounded by furry things, to be able to see and touch furry things every day when I wake up."

"Uh!!!" Hao Chen's answer surprised Yin Yang, who didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Then, after clearing his throat a few times, Yin Yang continued, "What if someone tries to disrupt your life? Or hurt the furry thing you're talking about?"

"Fight if you can win, run if you can't, and fight if you can't run. What else can you do?" Hao Chen was already showing signs of giving up.

Upon hearing Hao Chen's answer, Yin Yang frowned, as if deep in thought.

"Alas, so be it. I am already a person who has passed away in the past. There is no point in returning now."

After Yin Yang finished speaking, he looked at Hao Chen again, his deep eyes flashing with runes, as if he wanted to see through Hao Chen.

"I have one last question. This world is about to perish. If you could restore it to normal by sacrificing yourself, what would you choose?"

"Don't rush to answer. Haochen, you don't belong to this world. This world is just a dream of gods, an illusion."

"The destruction of the world will not affect you; instead, it will bring you back to the real world, the world that truly belongs to you."

When Hao Chen heard Yin Yang mention that sacrificing himself could prevent the world from being destroyed, he hesitated. If he really died, he would lose everything.

On the contrary, if he were to return to his own world, Zhanhu would still be there, Tianlu would still be there, Bixie would still be there, and Sibuxiang would still be there.

Even if he lives on, he can still see the four-legged creature, the rabbit god, walnuts, oleanders and other cute beasts.

Is the sacrifice worthwhile for the sake of this world?

Just as Hao Chen hesitated, everything that had happened in this world flashed through his mind. The Qilin and the others did not ostracize him because he did not belong to this world. On the contrary, they took good care of him.

He finally managed to befriend the evil spirits of this world and even recognized Seventy-Seven as his younger brother.

"call!!!"

Hao Chen took a deep breath, then looked at Yin Yang with a firm gaze: "I'm willing."

"Have you thought it through?" Yin Yang was somewhat surprised by Hao Chen's answer, because in their previous interaction, he thought Hao Chen was very afraid of death and didn't have the ruthlessness to risk everything for something.

Hao Chen nodded: "Although I'm afraid of dying, since I have a way to save the Four-Unlikes, why not do it? I don't want to have transmigrated for nothing."

"Have you thought about it?"

"I've thought it through. I'm sure, absolutely certain, and absolutely certain!"

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

With a burst of laughter from Yin Yang, the surrounding chaos gradually dissipated, and Hao Chen found himself still on the mountaintop, having not left, and there was no trace of Yin Yang around him.

Was that a dream?

Suddenly, Hao Chen felt a surge of memories flooding into his mind.

That was a forbidden secret technique called "Chaos Creates Heaven and Earth, Yin and Yang Transform Humanity".

In the unknown land, Yin Yang slowly closed his eyes: "Qiankun, it seems I have to break my promise. Let Haochen go to war in my place, after all, he is the one I chose."
