Xu Xiaoshou was a little confused after giving the "answer" to Gui Zu.
This overturned his previous understanding.
But to say that what Ghost Ancestor said must be true, there is a question mark.
"Wait a minute, there seems to be one more thing about Yao Zu..."
Xu Xiaoshou vaguely remembered that when he visited the Dead Sea six months ago, he saw a "monster" on the sixth floor of the Dead Sea.
That is a guy with a sunflower head, who calls himself "Kong Yuhen". He has lived from ancient times to today, and is so experienced that he has met several ancestor gods.
Every generation hates it.
Each generation seems to have its own mission.
Sunflower's mission was to eat Yao Zu's "Flower of Life", so he gained "immortality" at the cost of turning his human face into a sunflower face. And because he was afraid of being held accountable by Yao Zu, he hid in the Forbidden Law and Forbidden Spirit.
Imprisoned in the forbidden sea of death.
That was the first time that Xu Xiaoshou knew that the ancestor of medicine, Shen Nong Baicao, was still alive.
At that time, after hearing Xiang Kui's words, he felt that they were ridiculous, but those things could not be verified. He loved the people and followed him with eager eyes, and in the end the matter was settled.
Now that I think about it, if Yao Ancestor were still alive, if he really wanted to pursue Sunflower Kong Yu's hatred, could the mere Dead Sea forbidden law barrier stop him?
Medicine ghosts arise and die.
Everyone has now seen his other incarnation, Ghost Ancestor.
If we don't get to the bottom of the matter about the medicinal ancestor Shen Nong Baicao, wouldn't we be wasting this great opportunity?
In the gray space, Jinren secretly scolded me for his bad deeds, while helplessly continuing to ask:
"I still have doubts. You said that the Divine Pesticide Garden is His back-up plan, but I am so powerful. After I obtained the Medicine Garden, He didn't activate this back-up plan?"
Everyone is very confident.
Several ancestor gods have already chosen to bet on this deity, either actively or passively.
This is evident from the fact that he possesses the power of several great ancestors, more than Yue Gongli.
Yao Ancestor, are you so noble?
If He wanted to go further, or had other intentions, how could the deity chosen by many ancestor gods not be the first choice, but the backup?
Ghost Ancestor: "There must be a better choice."
broken!
My dear, you are really a spare tire!
After Jin Ren secretly cursed, he quickly asked: "I want to know what other options he has and where he will most likely lean, if it can be known."
Ghost Ancestor nodded, saying that of course you can say whatever you can. He said as he said:
"The Garden of Divine Pesticides, the Flower of Life, the City of Sheng·Buddha, the Dragon Cave, the Dragon Apricot, the Holy Plant of Diying, the Great Luo Jiu Sheng Xuan Sword, the Sand of Exile..."
As soon as these things were listed, Xu Xiaoshou was stunned. How come so many of them were related to him?
But if I think about it carefully, I seem to understand...
There is no need to mention the Shen Nong Herb Garden.
The apricot comes from the Shen Pesticide Garden and must be contaminated.
Long Xing was in Long Cave before Shen Nong Chemical Garden. If Long Xing was polluted, Long Cao must also be polluted.
Needless to say, the Diying Holy Strain already contains the remnants of the power of the Medicine Ancestor, but the rest...
"What is the reason why the city of Buddha was born? Because of the word '生'?"
"Da Luo Jiu Sheng Xuan Sword, the 'Sheng Sword' in the Twenty-One Famous Swords, does this have anything to do with it?"
"Sands of Exile..."
There is no "life" anymore, but Xu Xiaoshou remembers that this was one of the Six Counties of the First Generation and the main culprit that caused the desertification of the Western Regions.
Whether there is peace and prosperity, life and death will come.
Does the entire Western Desert have the influence of Yao Zu?
So looking at it this way, if the Yaozu that Sunflower Kongyuhen is afraid of is really in the Holy Continent, he will most likely be in the Western Region?
But isn’t the Western Region Hua Weiyang’s territory?
I heard that Hua Weiyang, the Great Sword Saint, is in an unknown place in the Western Region. He is also the protector of the Holy Continent...
How can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch?
Jin Ren was also extremely shocked. After hearing this long list of "back tricks", the doubts not only did not decrease, but became more:
"Hua Weiyang, do you know me?"
Ghost Ancestor nodded: "The eldest disciple of Sword Ancestor, after Sword Ancestor, he has the most hope of becoming a god and ancestor through the 'illusion'. However, he was restricted by it, and later he willingly became a great man and protected the mainland."
After a pause, there was a hint of playfulness in his words: "Just now when your way of life became super-dao, you should have woken him up. I and Hua Weiyang worked together to press the abnormality."
Xu Xiaoshou's heart beat faster when he heard it, and he was terrified.
When he became a super-Taoist, among the people he was wary of, there was no Yaozu at all.
All he could think about was how to fight to the death with the Ghost Ancestor and how to escape from the golden cicada's shell at the cost of human death.
Ghost Ancestor’s words have a deeper meaning.
"Wake up..."
From this word, Xu Xiaoshou could easily tell that Yao Ancestor's current condition was not even "poor". Shouldn't it be difficult to even manifest an entity like Ghost Ancestor?
Still sleeping?
But its existence makes even the ghost ancestors fear it. Why?
Jinren goes step by step: "Before my way of life became transcendental, there was another time when my skills were close to the way. At that time, I almost touched the state of the way of life's transcendental transformation, so I got 'attention'..."
What he was talking about was when Erjue performed weird tricks.
At that time, he felt like he was being watched, but in the end nothing happened, so he thought it was Hua Weiyang who helped prevent the disaster.
After the Great Sword Saint Hua Weiyang transformed into a real protector of the mainland, he had the right to choose to help shield the spiritual master from seeing his ancestors before he saw his ancestors.
Of course, this can be used to deal with the sleeping ancestral gods.
To deal with the kind of Zou Yin that has awakened and can act wantonly, it is impossible to guard against it - those who should be invaded will still be invaded, and they can only be delayed a little longer.
"This is what my ancestor did."
Ghost Ancestor explained: "My skills are so close to the Tao that I can't scare him. But it was also that time when the Holy Emperor of Lament noticed that I have begun to pay attention to you."
Xu Xiaoshou was horrified when he heard this.
How come from the perspective of Ghost Ancestor, Bei Huai and Yao Ancestor are almost equally terrifying?
This makes this meeting, like an underground tryst, completely invisible...
Jinren sorted out his thoughts again, but couldn't stop asking the question: "You said so many backup options, but He didn't choose any of them?"
"yes."
As soon as this "yes" came out, Xu Xiaoshou wished he could pass by himself, so that there would be a passive system to verify the credibility of his words.
Unfortunately, there is no if.
Ghost Ancestor nodded lightly and said: "What I just said are all second choices... Well, Hua Weiyang is restricted, so among the second choices, we should add a 'Flower Hometown'."
Xu Xiaoshou immediately thought of the ninth person among the saint slaves, Haitang'er, whom he had only met once.
His realm is the hometown of the Seven Forbidden Flowers.
I heard that he is also in the Northern Territory, living in the Qiduan Forbidden City. He is responsible for all the affairs of the Saint Slaves in the Northern Territory, and his cultivation level is too virtual.
Hiss, Taixu, how could he possibly be able to block the influence of Yaozu...
Xu Xiaoshou hurriedly patted his head and restrained himself from diverging thoughts. After all, it was just too weak to attract too much attention from Yaozu.
"Hua Weiyang practices swordsmanship and illusion, so why is he 'restricted' by him?" Jinren continued to ask questions, and he had become a curious baby.
The Ghost Ancestor sighed: "Hua Weiyang holds the Da Luo Jiu Tian Xuan Sword. One sword once cut off Hua Xiang's hometown. It was originally a good talk. But before he became the ancestor, he realized that he was deeply affected by it. He had to give up himself and completely become a great man.
.”
Xu Xiaoshou was dumbfounded.
So after walking all the way through life, at the last step, I discovered that the "gu" had been implanted in the body as early as childhood, and it was deeply rooted, regardless of each other?
If you don't give up on yourself, even if you become a god and an ancestor, you will just become the puppet of the Medicine Ancestor in the end?
"The cage said..."
Everyone didn't know what to say and murmured silently.
"Shennong planted a hundred herbs, and a hundred herbs planted people's hearts."
Ghost Ancestor thought to himself: "What I said just now are all second choices. Besides the second choices, there are also lower choices, all of which are his successors."
besides?
Although everyone was numb, Yaozu was too pervasive, so he asked: "What is the next choice?"
Ghost Ancestor: "Anyone who cultivates the Tao of Life, anyone who cultivates the Dao connected with the Tao of Life, everyone who takes the elixir of life and elixir to help cultivate the Tao, all living beings, all living creatures, all dead souls... and the above are some of the above.
Those who have built things will all be listed in the following list, and this is also in order."
Jinren: "..."
Xu Xiaoshou: "..."
Doesn't this mean that anyone who is alive and wants to make progress must pass the "Medicine Ancestor" level?
The end of the road is called "medicine"?
Ghost Ancestor seemed to know what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "After all, those who have the consciousness to avoid it in advance can survive."
This made people feel a little relieved.
But, it’s also outrageous!
As strong as Hua Weiyang is, who can guarantee that the influence and guidance of Yaozu can be avoided in the early and middle stages of cultivating Taoism?
Asking himself, Xu Xiaoshou himself did not avoid it.
His life path has even become transcendental, and he is the choice among the inferior and the superior.
Sang Lao said in a prison sentence, "Today I know that I am not myself."
Xu Xiaoshou didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky. Maybe he was not the only choice to become the Yao Ancestor because he had other "bets" from other ancestor gods.
But are these "bets" also the back-up plan of other ancestor gods?
"Brother Ghost, you make me feel even more stressed..."
After sighing with emotion, Junren thought thoughtfully and asked the most thoughtful question he had ever asked in his life:
"So, if those who practice the Tao do not seek transcendence, but proceed step by step, and encounter obstacles, they will surely perish?"
Ghost Ancestor was slightly surprised.
This time, He was silent for a long time, with the will-o'-the-wisp flickering in his eyes, and then he regained his composure:
"good."
This word completely shattered the little luck left in Xu Xiaoshou's heart.
He understood a lot in an instant.
He understood why the Eight Masters would not follow the old path of the Sword God, and must rely on the sword to become a god and ancestor, even if the sword ancestor may have fallen.
He understands why Dao Qiongtian wants Tianji to confer gods, and it is clear that Tianji Shu is born out of the Dao of Stars and the Evil Soul Technique. He must stay away from these things and just want to be independent.
He understood why Que Leihan was too weak to stop. He realized the Divine Mind thirty years ago and was still cultivating the Divine Mind thirty years later. This was because on the road to spiritual refining, the Saint Ancestor stood on his left shoulder and the Devil stood on the right shoulder.
Ancestor.
——Everyone stands on the shoulders of giants to seek truth, so everyone has giants standing on their shoulders.
But Xu Xiaoshou didn’t understand again.
He can understand that a guy like Shen Yi, who is five big and three rough, may not understand this truth, but the eight gods have said that there is an obstacle at the end of the ancient martial arts, and perhaps the war ancestor will be resurrected.
But God still moves forward without hesitation, why?
He also didn't understand that he was born in the Holy Emperor family and cultivated to the Holy Emperor himself. Those like Yue Gonghan and Hua Changdeng should know the way of refining the spirit and the way of the soul, but there are obstacles on the road.
They moved forward without hesitation, why?
Thinking back to the period of silence before Guizu's answer just now, Jinren felt like he had gained something: "Is there any special situation?"
"have."
Ghost Ancestor became straightforward again this time, as if he was waiting for Xu Xiao to be asked, he said:
"Consecrating gods and calling ancestors is the Tao, killing gods and destroying the ancestors is also the Tao. The former expands the Tao, and the latter seizes the Tao."
Xu Xiaoshou was heartbroken. After chewing this sentence carefully, he could only sigh with emotion, the reckless people in this world are really reckless!
He thought of what Ghost Ancestor had said about Hua Changdeng's "ancestral god's talent"...
Ghost Ancestor, named the God of Death, and the Lord of Fengdu.
Hua Changdeng, the master of the Ghost Ancestral Divine Court, is the master of Zhen Fengdu.
Jin Ren was stunned and asked: "So the way of Holy Emperor Yunshan..."
Ghost Ancestor chuckled: "My ancestor's way gave birth to the Yunshan Holy Emperor. He will also use his three ghost swords to kill the gods and destroy the ancestors before taking the final step."
hiss!
Xu Xiaoshou took a breath of cold air.
Seriously, what follows is a battle between gods?
"Are you afraid?"
Everyone can feel the pressure from Guizu's understated voice, because what he has to face is far more than just a Huachangdeng.
There is also Yaozu and Beihuai, and his divine court has been taken away, and his condition is not as weak as that of Suiyin...
Got it then.
Xu Xiaoshou seemed to know why Gui Ancestor had a "tryst" with him at the risk of being caught by Beihuai as soon as Jinren arrived at the Ming Ming Emperor Realm.
This time, before Guizu could answer, Jinren burst into laughter:
"Brother Ghost, don't panic, just because you are so sincere today, I will help you solve your urgent problem and save you from dire straits."
Ghost Ancestor also fell silent at these words.
But surprisingly, he didn't have any refutation, ridicule, or disdain, as if in his mind, what he was waiting for was Xu Xiaoshou's words at this moment.
The gray space is quiet.
Both of them fell into the cold period after the hot chat, and they were speechless.
Soon, Juren rolled his eyes and his sight fell on the long-handled and long-edged black sickle in Gui Zu's hand.
"Brother Ghost, your sickle is so beautiful..."
Brother Ghost is so reliable!
He said so much, stated His current predicament, and expressed absolute goodwill.
Although Xu Xiaoshou was still wary, these words should be 70% credible. If he still wanted to verify the rest, he would have to wait until he saw Yao Ancestor and see whether his condition was evil or not.
And why would a dignified ghost ancestor chat so much with a junior if it was not necessary?
His crispness, his directness, his attitude...
Everyone is playing straight ball. If Xu Xiaoshou still can't see his intentions and wants to bet on himself, then he is really blind.
So Jin Ren took the initiative to speak, not hiding his greed... appreciation for the Death Scythe. It contained too pure and too full the power of the Death God. It was simply the essence of Gui Zu's life.
Ghost Ancestor: "Give it to you."
So simple!
He actually handed over the Death Scythe in his hand.
When this terrifying sickle was just taken out, everyone thought it was going to be placed on their neck.
He has even finished imagining that he will not die despite being sickened, his soul will be taken away by the God of Death, and he will fall into eternal destruction and suffer inhuman torture.
He never thought that in such a twist of events, Guizu would turn out to be a good person.
"Why is this so embarrassing..."
Jinren rubbed his hands with a squirming expression on his face. He wanted to take it but didn't dare to take it. His face was very ugly.
In fact, he was seeking his opinion.
Even if he and the deity share the same mind, he still has to get a positive reply before he dares to move forward on such a major matter that may be "backhanded".
Transgression is a serious crime of beheading!
And when it comes time to behead my demon, I will never show any mercy, even if it means killing himself!
Xu Xiaoshou was indeed hesitant.
But after thinking about it, if Ghost Ancestor really wanted to arrange a backup plan on himself, there would be countless ways.
He didn’t have to say it explicitly, let alone beat around the bush.
Regarding the fact that the three paths of his body, spirit, and mind are beyond the realm of Taoism, he should be able to do something about the "Tao" like Yaozu, right?
Above the gray fog, it was extremely cold.
The Ghost Ancestor holds a sickle in both hands and is several feet tall. Until he comes in front of him, no one can feel that he is so unattainable, that he stands tall as a mountain, and that he is superior to others.
"This object is called the 'Scythe of Death'. It was made with the whole life of my ancestor. It contains the essence of the ancestral power of the path of the dead, and the refinement of the understanding of the path of reincarnation. It may help you practice a little or two. Now I give it to you.
Ask for something in return.”
Haha, Brother Ghost, you are so direct. You can say such rude words. You are really a bad ghost who wants to repay a favor... Junren laughed and said: "Then you are not polite. You will not let me down. I won't."
I’m sorry!”
After that, take the Death Scythe.
The black sickle has a long handle and a long blade. The blade and handle are branded with dark red blood lines. It is powerful yet exquisite. It is truly the most magnificent work of art in the world.
After taking possession of it, the Death's Scythe turned into a black light, and drew out the red-lettered ghost sign between Juren's eyebrows, blending into it.
"No more."
Everyone feels disappointed.
The red-letter ghost sign of this deity is already red, General Void. He is an extremely domineering semi-holy spirit, and he has always been envious of it.
Now his scarlet letter ghost has signed a contract with the Death God's Scythe. This is the first time that Jin Ren has surpassed himself in terms of "treasure".
But after only a moment, it became empty again.
He looked into the distance with tears in his eyes and melancholy in his heart.
Is short-term possession a reward or a punishment?
"Yes."
In the world of ghosts and Buddhas, Xu Xiaoshou's eyes flashed with a faint light, and the red-lettered ghost sign in the purple mansion lit up.
In his hand, there was a heavy black sickle with a long handle and a long blade.
He treasured it so much that he couldn't put it down and played with it. The more he looked at it, the more he thought the sickle was really beautiful.
I'm like a transit point... Jinren doesn't want to say anything anymore. His desire to live has become lower, but he can only do his duty and ask:
"If I want to see you next time and have problems on my way to seek the truth, can I use the Death Scythe to summon a wisp of you...even the remnants of my consciousness?"
A persistent person...
Ghost Ancestor smiled and shook his head.
He had already given this answer. Xu Xiaoshou did not believe in evil, so He could only put it another way:
