The court officials fell silent. There is no need to read more about the first two requests. The key point is the last one. This may seem ordinary, but its meaning is very far-reaching.
Several court officials were thinking for a moment, is this kind of thing worth it?
And then they knew that as long as they considered such a possibility, they would actually fall into Shang Chentian's plan.
But some calculations are like this. You know clearly that he is targeting you, but out of some beneficial consideration for yourself, it is difficult to give up.
This move is actually very clever. This is because he saw that the Xuanhun Dao within Tianxia was very likely to rise through this and have the power to oppress the true cultivators, so he deliberately used this matter to attract them, because the Xuntian Daozhang happened to be on both sides.
on the contradictory points.
Abandoning the Xuanfa cannot circumvent the Heaven Training Dao Zhang, and as long as the Heaven Training Dao Zhang exists, the Xuanhun Dao will inevitably rise. To prevent this, suppressing the Heaven Training Dao Zhang is inevitable.
Therefore, no matter whether this matter can be accomplished or not, once disputes or dissent arise in Xuan Ting, it will cause instability within Tianxia.
This seemingly ordinary discussion was actually no less dangerous than a dangerous battle.
The first Taoist said at this time: "This generation is so arrogant that it is absolutely impossible to abolish the Taoist Chapter of Xuntian."
Not to mention the various benefits brought by the implementation of the Xuntian Daozhang at this time, just saying that the Xuntian Daozhang attracted the five chief ministers to come forward and personally approve it, it is absolutely impossible to abandon it.
All the officials in the court were slightly relieved. If the leader took the initiative to express his attitude, the dispute between the court and the court would probably be avoided.
However, at this moment, the sound of a jade chime was heard. When all the court officials looked, they saw that the sound was coming from Chen Ting's seat.
Chen Tingzhi spoke slowly at this time: "Everyone, what the Chief Executive said is right. It is impossible to abolish the Heaven-training Dao Seal, but you need to take a closer look. Shang Chentian just wants me to temporarily stop using the Heaven- Training Dao Seal.
, and if I can exchange this for my Tianxia’s security for a hundred years, isn’t it really worth it? But there is still some room for discussion here.”
He raised his head, looked at the first Taoist, and warned implicitly in his voice: "Shouzhi, it is not difficult to see Shang Chentian's intention this time. If we all refuse, then after returning, he will definitely give up the idea of peace talks.
If I concentrate on preparing for war, then I am afraid that he will take that step."
Having said this, he looked at the other court officials again, "You should also know that Shangchentian is actually not without the power to fight back. And if I can continue stably for a hundred years, my power will be able to steadily surpass them.
When the time comes, he will fall out, and he will have nothing to fear."
When his eyes moved, he looked specifically at Zhu Yisheng. The latter suddenly remembered what Chen Tingzhi said to him that day, and couldn't help but think deeply.
If Tianxia can wipe out Shangchentian at any time, then the terms proposed by others today are nothing more than a joke.
But in fact, Shang Chentian has someone to rely on behind him. If he is desperate, he can also bring a great threat to Tianxia. Now, Shang Chentian himself is unwilling to take this step, but
When push comes to shove, it becomes difficult to say.
In fact, not only him, but also Xuan Ting Tingzhi, who is sitting here today, is also aware of this matter and understands why Chen Tingzhi is worried.
The first Taoist priest glanced at Chen Tingzhi and saw that he had brought up this matter. Knowing that the matter had to be resolved in court, he looked down and said: "Chen Tingzhi's opinion, what do you think?"
At this time, a jade chime sounded, and Zhong Tingzhi stood up. Everyone looked at him, and Chao Huan raised an eyebrow.
Zhong Tingzhi slapped Chen Tingzhi in front of him and said: "Chief, all the officials," he paused, "Zhong does not agree with Chen Tingzhi's opinion."
All the officials in the court were a little surprised. Normally, Zhong Tingzhi would often suppress Xun Tian Daozhang. This time, they thought he would go along with the situation, but unexpectedly, he actually raised objections. Could it be that
Is there anything else to follow?
Zhong Weiwu really has no intention of taking the opportunity to suppress Xun Tian Daozhang at this moment. Although he cares that Xuan Xiu will gradually overwhelm Zhen Xiu in the future, things have their own priorities and he knows very well who is his real life and death enemy.
The emergence of the Xuntian Daozhang has connected the two realms of Xuanhu and Hun, which will oppress the true cultivator, and may even marginalize the true cultivator in the future. What might it do to him personally?
To put it bluntly, the worst outcome is that he retires from the position of court official. The person who abdicates will still have Xuanliang to draw from, but it will be slightly less.
Tianxia's rules protected Shang and Xia, and they also protected him.
But Shangchentian is different. If Shangchentian gains power, then there will definitely be no good results for those who were originally the upper echelons of Tianxia.
Moreover, Shang Chentian knew that he wanted to provoke a conflict, and it was impossible for him to follow the path that the other party expected. Do you really think that if you dig a hole casually, he would jump into it?
At this moment, he continued: "I also know what Chen Tingzhi said, but after these hundred years, will Shang Chentian stop doing that? As long as they can't defeat me, Tianxia,
As long as the forces of strength and weakness remain unchanged, sooner or later it will be done.
Some people may think that in a hundred years, I, Tian Xia, will be able to take advantage of the situation, and then I will no longer be afraid, but how can Shang Chentian not know such a simple truth?"
He looked at Chen Tingzhi and said: "Chen Tingzhi must also know this, but Chen Tingzhi still insists on raising this proposal, presumably because he believes that within a hundred years, they will not be able to find a way to get past me, Tianxia
.
To be honest with Chen Tingzhi, Zhong doesn’t think that this person can surpass me, but things in the world are changing and it’s hard to predict. We will never be able to accomplish what our opponents intend to do, so Zhong thinks that these people
The opportunity should never be given to them!"
Taoist Yusu nodded and said: "What Zhong Tingzhi said is true, but it doesn't matter if I take that step to go to Chentian. How can I, Tianxia now, be the Tianxia of the past?" He sneered: "Just let them come.
.”
After Zhu Yisheng thought deeply for a moment, he picked up the jade mallet and knocked on the jade chime. After everyone looked at it, he said slowly: "I, Tianxia, have been able to walk all the way through all kinds of dangers and difficulties until now, not because of compromise, but because of compromise.
I have gone through all kinds of struggles. If I could be defeated by going to Chentian to do that, it would be a waste of hundreds of years of our efforts."
All the officials in the imperial court heartily agreed with this statement. Over the past hundreds of years, they had faced difficult and dangerous situations, especially a hundred years ago. At that time, they were really in danger and almost in danger of collapse, but it was not
Were they able to persevere?
Chao Tingzhi suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Chief Executive, Chao asked for a court decision!"
The first Taoist priest looked at him, then looked at everyone, nodded and said: "Okay!"
Taoist Yusu said coldly: "Where did the people of Shangchentian come from and where did they go? I will reject this proposal!" He picked up the jade mallet and struck it, which immediately made a clear chime sound.
Chao Huan also raised the jade hammer, raised his sleeves and robes, knocked the jade chime hard, and said loudly: "Reject it!"
And after him, the sound of chimes kept ringing on the long river of light, and the words of rejection from the court came one after another.
"Reject!"
"Reject!"
"Reject!"
Chen Tingzhi saw that everyone was expressing their opinions in this way, and the atmosphere in the venue became even more high-spirited. He was silent for a moment, then picked up the jade mallet and knocked it, in agreement with everyone's opinions.
Seeing this, the first Taoist couldn't help but nodded. He looked at one end of the Guangqi River and said, "Feng Tingzhi."
Taoist Feng stood up and said: "Feng is here."
The first Taoist said: "Go and tell the angels from Shangchen tomorrow that I, Tian Xia, will not accept any of their requests this time! If you still want to talk, the door is here. You can change your registration and come see me. If not,
I hope, Tianxia, I will not force it, I just hope they will think carefully about it."
Feng Dao Ren said: "Feng obeyed the order."
The matter was settled at this point, and it came down to Chen Tian's choice. As the bell of the first Taoist priest rang, all the court officials retreated from the long river of light.
Zhu Yisheng stood up and left his seat and walked out, but he did not immediately turn back to his home dojo, but stood there motionless, as if waiting for someone.
After a while, Chen Tingzhi came to his side and said: "Zhu Tingzhi, you should know that Chen has no selfish motives, but if he goes to Chentian to do that, I, Tianxia, will have to pay a heavy price."
, if it can be slowed down for a while, many unnecessary deaths and injuries can be avoided."
Zhu Tingzhi looked into the distance and said, "I know what Chen Tingzhi means, but there are some things that we cannot back down from, even if it's just for the sake of a feeling of pride."
Chen Tingzhi frowned and said, "Emotional?"
Zhu Tingzhi looked down, as if he had seen the towering green banyan tree again protecting Qingyang Shangzhou. He said: "Many people in the past have sacrificed a lot to protect Tianxia. I can't do this.
Are they still unable to hold on to the world they have protected?
Chen Tingzhi couldn't help but remain silent.
Zhu Tingzhi turned around and said: "I, Tianxia, have been reborn and vigorous since this life. Fellow Taoist Chen, please don't underestimate Tianxia now. With my current power, why do I need to compromise? They are coming.
, just let them come."
In the dojo in the land of darkness and chaos, Zhang Yu was sitting in the main palace, refining the protective magical weapon. A group of purple light could be seen flying in front of him.
He refined this using the purple star dust and sand as a reference. Once this magical weapon is refined, it can be combined into one, used for invasion, and has the ability to cover at the same time.
There are still many debates in the commentaries on Taoist books about whether the magical artifacts used to protect the land of the void should be mainly used to cover or defend.
Some people think that if the place of refuge is found, it is not far away from being breached. It is better to cover it up and deal with the opponent as soon as possible during this period, then it will be fine.
Others believe that defense should be the priority. As long as the magical weapon is indestructible, it will be invincible.
In fact, there is no right or wrong here, only different ideas. No matter which statement is made, it actually needs to be used according to your own skills and fighting style.
As a defender, he has to face various enemies with different methods. If he follows a single path, he will most likely be easily restrained, so he needs to combine the strengths of all parties.
Just as he was refining his heart, a feeling came from his mind. He came out of the dojo and came to Shouzheng Palace. He saw Taoist Yu Su waiting there with a serious face. He glanced at him and raised his hand in salute.
