Chapter 566: Coming to the door
Thuja Island, Lingtai Sect.
"How did you feel when you went to Liuyun Island this time? Did anything happen?"
In front of the Utensil Pavilion, the setting sun dyed the clouds on the horizon red. Monk Jingkong was holding a wooden basin, looking at the forest in front of him, picking up freshly carved wooden beads from the basin and stringing them together.
The beads are made of various types of precious sandalwood and jade, which are very precious on the sea. They have various effects such as calming the mind, activating muscles and resolving blood.
Coupled with the condensation of the divine will of the true king Wufu, the Buddha treasure is formed when strung together.
"I feel generally that the merger of the Seven Seas Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance is inevitable. Whether you like it or not, everyone knows about the tragedies in the three states of Tai, Huai, and Yu, so it is normal to join the group to keep warm.
As for the changes, there are no changes, but after a while, I will use Thuja Pagoda to try to save the True Lord from the ninth dharma body tribulation."
Lin Mo also squatted in front of the wooden basin, twisted the beads, and tied them firmly with gold threads.
He and Jingkong have similar interests, and the latter also likes him very much. When communicating on daily basis, he likes to recall stories from his youth and tell some life principles.
So sometimes, when nothing happened, Lin Mo would come to the Utensil Pavilion, where an old man and a young man would sit under the sunset, blowing the evening breeze, and talk about current affairs and martial arts.
However, there were some things that Lin Mo did not tell everything.
For example, when he returned this time, he was unexpectedly attacked and killed by the Thousand Feather Realm, and for example, when he was in Haiyuan, he joined the extremely evil sea people organization Chi Gun.
These things may only cause trouble and upset to others, so it is better to hide them in your heart to avoid causing panic.
Sometimes it is better to do less than to do more, that is the truth.
"This world is divided and combined." Monk Jingkong said with a smile, with wrinkles on his face like a chrysanthemum in full bloom.
There was a look of reminiscence in his eyes.
"When I was young, I once heard the elders in my division talk about how before the Great Zhou Dynasty was established, the situation in Kyushu was as chaotic as weeds, and warlords in various places were in power.
But since Zhou Taizu gained power, many chaotic forces began to form alliances and converge, such as the Great Zhou Dynasty of Zhou Taizu and the Sun Clan that opposed Wang Sun Shentong. At first glance, they seem to coincide with the current situation."
"This is a reshuffle. Under this general trend, those who go against the trend will die and be shattered by the waves, while those who follow the trend will ride on the wind and waves to reach a higher peak."
"Don't worry, as long as I am here, Lingtai Sect will become a powerful force, and the sect's inheritance will not be cut off."
Lin Mo was silent and said softly.
When he thought of the Earth's historical records, although most of them were low-level martial arts, in terms of the direction alone, there were actually many similarities between the two.
The principles of natural selection, survival of the fittest, and competition for survival are exactly the same.
If you don't have enough strength, you can only go with the flow. Naturally, you will let others prey on you, be bullied and cause trouble.
The strong will always be strong, and the weak will always be weak. This is the truth.
"The reversal of prosperity and decline, the alternation of yin and yang. Eight hundred years ago, the Great Zhou Dynasty was the general trend, but now it is not declining, so the former is not necessary, and the latter is preserved. After all, that is too tiring.
What's more, originally there were Shenxiu and Juean to assist you, but now, the heavy responsibility falls on you alone..."
Jingkong put the stringed Buddha string aside.
"In the realm of great enlightenment, it is said that the sea of suffering is boundless, and once you turn around, you will find the shore. But these so-called heavy responsibilities and burdens are never invisible seas of suffering."
"..." Lin Mo was speechless.
Jue'an, who belongs to Li Shenxiu and Cihang, was the strongest and the boss in the Lingtai Sect in the past.
The two of them are extremely powerful.
After disappearing, the Lingtai Sect is still there, but it has directly transformed from the two mountains that suppressed Huaizhou in the past to an ordinary large sect.
He was also curious about where they had gone and why there was no news, but after repeated investigations, he found nothing.
As for the so-called sea of suffering and great enlightenment, to be honest, he does not believe in Buddhism.
Rather than illusory beliefs, he believed more in his ever-expanding Qi and blood and his ever-improving power.
"I will find Tianzun and the others, and I will also protect the peace of the sect." Lin Mo said in a deep voice.
"By the way, half a month later, there will be a competition within the sect. This is the first mixed competition between the inner and outer mountains. Mu Xin asked me to ask, do you have time to host it?" Jingkong did not say anything more about the matter and changed the subject.
"I will come forward and take charge." Lin Mo shook his head.
He knew that Mu Xin and others had good intentions, and hosting such meetings was a way to establish their status.
But after suppressing the entire Thuja sea area, Lin Mo actually didn't need this method.
If you have this time, it is better to absorb the unexpected gains as soon as possible, carve magic patterns, and seek breakthroughs.
Jingkong thought for a moment and understood what Lin Mo meant. He sighed softly and stopped talking.
After the Liuyun Island banquet, gatherings of various sizes were held one after another.
In the end, Zuo Ou, the leader of the Seven Seas Alliance, and Bi Yangzhen, the leader of the South China Sea Alliance, co-organized the second meeting of the Seven Seas. After three consecutive days of consultation, the union and reunification of the two alliances were determined.
The standard is the unification of sea areas, the reorganization of the maritime trade islands of the Seven Seas Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance, and the re-division of sea areas.
The major forces in the two alliances also selected experts based on their size to serve as elders in the Seven Seas Alliance, perform tasks regularly, and form the Seven Navy.
The Seven Navy patrolled the Seven Seas and set up defense lines on the coasts of Huaizhou and Taizhou. At the same time, they also internally cleaned up and captured neutral forces that had not joined the two alliances.
The Lingtai Sect in the Yabai Sea Area took advantage of this decree to recruit disciples and attract influence more blatantly.
Soon, some forces in the sea area that were difficult to forcibly suppress and subdue were contained, and even extended their tentacles beyond the Thuja Sea area.
Naturally, it will infringe on the interests of other major forces around it, and even some ambitious forces within the New Seven Seas Alliance are somewhat dissatisfied and jealous.
However, after Lin Mo took action twice, he hid his dissatisfaction in his heart and did not dare to have any more opinions.
During this period, the situation in Kyushu also changed.
The Seven Seas Alliance, which was originally confronting the Great Zhou in Jiaojun, Yizhou, each side sent additional troops, and even the masters of Zhenjun increased their strength to the number of two hands.
Just when everyone thought that the two forces were about to fight, Fa Chong, the Yingwu Marquis of the Great Zhou Dynasty, suddenly led an army into Taizhou and sent troops to Jiu'an County, aiming to destroy Xinjing, the capital of the Huai Kingdom.
Qiao Lila, the deputy leader of the Seven Seas Alliance and the deputy chief of the Blood Shark Clan, led the new Seventh Navy, aiming directly at Tai'an County and Baize City.
Both sides suddenly exerted force, and with a quick word, they broke through Taizhou's defense line almost instantly.
In Dahuai, the Qianyu Realm forces suffered numerous casualties and were defeated in several cities.
But then when the former reacted, a real war broke out, and more than twenty true king-level warriors died in the battle.
During this period, Daozu died, Yingwu Marquis Fang Chong, deputy patriarch Qiao Lila, and the head of the Luohan Hall of Landuo Temple in Yizhou were seriously injured and left the battlefield.
The Taoist ancestor also disappeared without a trace.
At this point, the fighting became more and more intense, and the two battlefields in Jiu'an County and Tai'an County in Taizhou turned into millstones, and horrific bloody battles were staged.
The two sides maintain a barely balanced situation.
Months passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the Lingtai Sect's territory, Yabai Island, was very lively.
Lanterns were hung everywhere, and people took to the streets to enjoy the long-lost joy.
This is the time for the annual Lingtai Buddha Lantern Festival.
The sound of crackling firecrackers exploded from time to time, and a large number of colorful lanterns floated into the sky.
New Lingmiao City.
This large city, which was built just a few months ago, has very similar specifications and layout to Huaizhou Lingmiao City.
With the help of powerful warriors, it took less than a month to take shape, and after the introduction of the population, it resumed its bustle.
At this time, all kinds of colored lanterns were hung around the square in the city, and a lamp shed was set up.
Buddha light strips were interspersed and fluttered under the bright lights, and people gathered around the square.
In the center of the square, there were loud gongs and drums, playing and singing, endless lion and tiger dancers, and unusual tricks common in the Seven Seas, which attracted people to clap their hands and cheer loudly.
In a corner on the side, there is a dedicated person distributing live fish. After individuals obtain them, they will be released separately, which means that there will be more than enough every year and the Dragon King will bless them.
This is the tradition of the Seven Seas Festival.
After the Lingtai Sect moved to Qihai, most of the disciples it recruited were from Qihai. Naturally, some changes were made to suit local conditions and the Buddha Lantern Festival.
Lin Mo held Lin Jue in one hand and Lin Min in the other, carrying a basket of fish and exquisite lanterns to the river that ran through the entire Lingmiao City.
Watching people on both sides of the river release colored lanterns into the sky and live fish into the river.
Father and mother Lin were resting and playing in the restaurant.
"Dad, if this fish is released, will...will the Dragon King really bless us?"
Lin Jue was holding a half-meter-long big red fish with both hands. The fish was still jumping around and slapping him in the face with its tail from time to time, causing him to speak intermittently.
Due to the medicinal bath he had taken since childhood, he had a very strong body. He was not like a four-year-old child at all. He grew extremely strong, with a white face and facial features that looked more and more like Lin Mo.
"Put the fish back into the sea. These fish are all the children of the Dragon King. If we save their children, they will naturally protect us.
Just like if someone saves you and Min'er, dad will satisfy any of their requests."
Lin Mo explained with a smile.
As he spoke, he looked at his daughter beside him.
