Just as James Carter was about to let his consciousness temporarily leave the sea of consciousness and return to his new body, James Carter's "consciousness" suddenly stopped, then stared intently at the screen. Even though he had no body at this moment and was just a consciousness, the feeling was exactly the same.
Because James Carter suddenly discovered that there was something new on the screen—a video player software. James Carter clearly remembered that he had installed the most streamlined version, and he had used this version for several years, so he was very familiar with the basic interface. He was also one hundred percent certain that he had not installed anything else.
"Open it!" With a thought, James Carter controlled the computer to open this suddenly appeared video window.
"Boom..." In an instant, it was as if he was watching a holographic projection. James Carter felt his consciousness being pulled, and in the next moment, he was already in a strange space.
A vast, boundless space, and in the far distance, he could vaguely see a few people.
People?
No, James Carter felt all the blood in his body rush to his head, because at first glance he saw those people in the distance, but in the next moment he was shocked to discover that one of them had eighteen arms and twenty-four heads, the entire body shrouded in golden light.
Heavens, what kind of person is that!
There was another figure standing on a lotus platform, with a face the color of yellow earth, and behind his head was like a newly risen sun.
Besides these two, there were three more people facing them. One of them appeared the tallest, surrounded by immortal energy as if heaven and earth were at his side, holding a pearl in his hand.
The two people beside him were also extremely astonishing. The moment he saw them, James Carter felt as if his mind was about to explode, and even his newly acquired body was about to burst from the blood surging to his head.
Because the others gave him an extremely familiar impression, and when he saw the old man sitting on a green ox next to the one holding the pearl, James Carter felt his mind was truly about to stop working.
At first, he hadn't reacted, but when he saw the old man riding the green ox, his mind instantly cleared—Tai... Shang... Lao... Jun...
The ancestor of primordial energy, the foundation of heaven and earth, the progenitor of all existence and nonexistence, the embodiment of the Dao (the embodiment of natural laws and principles). He resides above the thirty-three heavens, the true founder of Daoism, ranked third among the supreme Three Pure Ones, also known as "Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue," "Primordial Lord Lao," "Heavenly Lord of Incarnation," "Great Emperor of Supreme Purity"...
The one with eighteen arms and twenty-four heads was none other than Zhunti Daoist, one of the two Western sages!
Although he didn't know them as well as Taishang Laojun, he had at least heard of them from novels and legends. The one with the yellow face should be the other Western sage, Jieyin Daoist.
So, the one holding the pearl in the center, even more powerful than Taishang Laojun, must be Yuanshi Tianzun, and the pearl in his hand should be the Hunyuan Pearl...
The last one was obvious—Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun...
Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Taiqing Daode Tianzun, plus the two Western sages Jieyin Daoist and Zhunti Daoist—the Five Great Saints!!
The reason James Carter was so shocked was because he had a unique feeling that this was not a movie, nor a TV show, and certainly not an ordinary image. He could personally feel an indescribable sensation. At this moment, James Carter finally understood what was meant by "aura of oppression." This was a million, no, a billion times stronger than the feeling of an ordinary soldier suddenly seeing his idolized marshal standing beside him.
If this was just a video, then James Carter believed that if it played a horror film, it would absolutely scare most people to death. The realism of this feeling could not be faked...
Even though he was just a consciousness, James Carter couldn't move at all. Even though they were very far away, he still couldn't move a muscle...
What were they talking about?
After the initial shock, James Carter gradually realized that although they were extremely far away, he could clearly see their mouths moving, as if they were discussing something...
He couldn't hear any sound, but just by watching their movements and feeling that distant, vast presence, James Carter felt his consciousness realm constantly changing. The time was short, but in that state it felt incomparably long. Even though he couldn't hear a single sound, just the feeling alone made James Carter feel like an ape or monkey observing human actions, and his realm underwent some kind of transformation.
The more he changed, the more urgently James Carter wanted to hear what they were actually saying...
At this moment, James Carter finally understood the saying: "If I hear the Dao in the morning, I can die in the evening." At this moment, he truly felt that even if he heard their voices and died immediately, it would be worth it...
"Boom!" In just a moment, as James Carter desperately tried to hear the voices of the Five Great Saints discussing the Dao, the scene before his eyes suddenly changed. James Carter found himself "staring" at his now fully computerized laptop, and the video window he had just opened had already disappeared.
James Carter immediately tried to control his consciousness to open that video window again, but found there was no response at all.
Strange, could it be that he couldn't control it anymore?
