In the lobby, a Taoist with gray hair and a thin figure was pacing back and forth nervously. This man was Bian Changji's father, Bian Wentao.
When he saw Yuan Jinsheng arriving, he looked relieved and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
After the two were seated as guests of honor, Bian Wentao said straight to the point: "Master Yuan should know the purpose of my visit. This presumptuous visit is precisely for the evil obstacle of Changji. Changji and Yuan have caused such trouble day and night. Yuan
First of all, we have to work together to handle this matter."
Yuan Jinsheng replied calmly: "Oh? I wonder what Master Bian has to say?"
Bian Wentao said with a gloomy expression: "That Baili Ming is just a commoner, and Yuan is responsible for the discipline within the sect. If we work together to suppress this matter, he will have nowhere to complain.
Jihe Chaoxi will be able to avoid punishment, I wonder what Chief Yuan wants?"
Yuan Jinsheng heard the words and sneered softly: "Good and evil are done by people, and misfortune and blessings come to you. Master Bian regards the rules of the sect as nothing, and escaping from mistakes is not the right way. I cannot agree with this, but I know that mistakes can be corrected, and there is no great good."
"
Bian Wentao blushed and looked embarrassed when he heard this: "I, I am also thinking about Chao Xi and their prospects."
Yuan Jinsheng asked with half a smile: "Oh, then I also want to thank Master Bian for caring so much about my little girl?"
Bian Wentao was speechless, and Yuan Jinsheng snorted coldly: "Huh, Chao Xi just committed a small crime of fighting in private, but Bian Zangji committed a major crime of killing his fellow disciples and colluding with demons. Which is more serious, Bian
Master knows it in his heart, so he shouldn't say any high-sounding words."
"In addition, Bailiming has a close relationship with me, and my karma is related to it. If I give up this son, it will affect my spiritual path. If you don't believe it, Master Bian can also go and find out."
Bian Wentao looked a little frustrated when he heard the words and spoke in a nonchalant manner.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Jinsheng smiled calmly and said: "Actually, this matter is not insurmountable. It just depends on how you do it, Master Bian."
When Bian Wentao heard this, he asked as if grasping a life-saving straw: "What do you mean by this?"
Yuan Jinsheng said with a smile: "Cure Bailiming's damaged meridians will not affect his future spiritual practice. I can try to give him a lighter sentence for the crime he committed."
Bian Wentao asked with some confusion: "I heard that the Baili Ming Meridian was seriously damaged. Is there any way to cure it?"
"It's not difficult to say. Just use the Kaiyang Cauldron to repair its meridians. Of course, this requires Xingjun's nod. I suggest you first talk to Li Yitang's leader Bingming and ask him to come forward to intercede. It will be easier to win over Xingjun.
Approval."
Bian Wentao felt relieved when he heard this, stood up, saluted and left in a hurry.
…
Xingjun's Mansion, Kaiyang Xingjun Shengyang looked at the pleading expressions of Li Yitang and Bian Wentao, and couldn't help but feel angry and resentful: "My senior brother is really not willing to bow to me at all. Obviously he
It’s enough to say a few soft words of request, but I want to use you as a spearman. You, too, just take the bait so obediently?"
Li Yitang glared at Bian Wentao with a livid face. Bian Wentao was like a child who made a mistake, with his head hanging down, his face flushed, and he was speechless, but he secretly glanced at Sheng Yang's face, which was full of pleading.
.
After Sheng Yang calmed down his emotions, he waved his hands and said, "That's all, Bian Wentao, go and bring Bai Liming."
Bian Wentao couldn't help but beam with joy. He was about to give a gift and thank him when he heard Xing Jun say again: "Also, when you go back, you should discipline your young son well. Although the tree is big and straight, it has grown crookedly when it was young. How can it be straight when it is big?"
Every family has its own laws and every family has its own rules. Although this time it didn't lead to a big mistake, punishment is inevitable."
Bian Wentao could only lower his head and respond calmly.
…
On the other side, in Yuan Jinsheng's study, disciple Zhu Changyou was bowing to report: "The first one, Baili Ming, has been sent to Xingjun."
Yuan Jinsheng hummed softly, seemingly calm and calm, but the slight ripples in the tea cup in his hand revealed that there was a slight ups and downs in his heart at this moment.
Zhu Changyou asked softly: "Sir, this plan is going smoothly, but Baili Ming is under the surveillance of Xingjun, so the spiritual seed in his body will not be discovered, right?"
After Yuan Jinsheng calmed down, he said calmly: "No, the spiritual seed and the Kaiyang Cauldron have the same origin. As long as they are not stimulated by magic power, they will not be discovered. This is like spiritual energy existing in the world, but not easily perceived.
It is a general principle that only by absorbing the spiritual energy in the body for cultivation and using the spiritual energy outside the body to cast spells can one perceive."
"Disciple understands, but will Bai Liming discover our plan?"
Yuan Jinsheng pondered for a while: "No, his meridians are damaged at this time, and his soul is in a coma. Even if he is awake, he will be blocked by the spiritual seed. If he wants to break through the barrier, his mere skills of opening the seven orifices will be impossible.
It can’t be reached.”
"There should be no problem if the plan succeeds, but there is still some uncertainty as to whether Bai Liming's soul can return safely."
Zhu Changyou couldn't help but wonder: "What changes?"
"The Kaiyang Cauldron gathers the souls of the deceased within a radius of thousands of miles into it, restrains the souls, grinds them, and condenses them into the power of the soul. When Baili Ming's soul enters the cauldron, although it is protected by spiritual seeds, the final spiritual seeds of the plan will be distracted.
If he uses it, if he can't take care of both, the spiritual seed will only be able to remove its protective power, and its soul will leak its vitality, and will definitely be captured, refined, and absorbed by the Kaiyang Cauldron, and finally it will be destroyed."
When Zhu Changyou heard this, his heart palpitated, and then he asked doubtfully: "Master, didn't you say that within seven days after death, people will slowly turn into spiritual energy and dissipate in the world? How can Kaiyang Cauldron refine and absorb the soul?"
Hearing this, a hint of disdain appeared on Yuan Jinsheng's calm face, and he snorted coldly: "This Beidou Demon Subduing Formation, a more accurate name should be the Beidou Soul Confining Formation. It has seven Taoist palaces and two capital cities, with a radius of several
The souls of the deceased within a thousand miles are all absorbed into the nine great cauldrons. It is just the words of the ignorant people that their souls dissipate after death."
Zhu Changyou showed an expression of disbelief, and Yuan Jinsheng continued:
"However, all living beings should also be content. It is the power of the soul accumulated over the past ten thousand years that can gather the spiritual energy from all directions in the Middle Earth. Under the protection of the Tao Sect, the weather in the Middle Earth can be smooth and the people are prosperous. As the so-called cycle of heaven, there is no return.
There are so many things, and they all return to their roots."
…
At this time, Baili Ming's physical body was suspended above a giant bronze cauldron, shrouded in a white light curtain. The giant cauldron below had three legs and two ears, and the four words "Kaiyang Wuqu" were engraved on the cauldron.
The big character is the true form of the phantom of the Kaiyang giant cauldron that appears in the Glazed Pagoda.
"Help me, help me..."
Baili Ming's ears rang with numerous calls for help, layer upon layer, sometimes far and sometimes near. He slowly opened his eyes and looked around at the gray surroundings, as if he was in the deep sea, with the sea water wrapped like solid ice.
He is cold, depressing, and suffocating.
Suddenly, the waves of light flowed, revealing countless shadowy figures. Their faces were blurred, as if covered with a thick layer of gray-white cotton, sluggish, helpless, and confused.
"Where is this?" Baili Ming looked around blankly. No one answered, and there was no sound.
I only felt that my body was slowly sinking, and the dark and deep seabed was swallowing me up like the mouth of a gluttonous beast.
Suddenly, the noisy and chaotic cry for help rang in my ears again: "Help me, help me..."
It was the lamentations of countless souls that awakened Baili Ming's comatose soul. These sounds were either weeping or complaining, sad and desolate, gloomy and cold, lonely and resentful... which disturbed people's moods and gradually caused the soul to sway.
Uneasy.
Bailiming wanted to cover his ears with both hands, but found that his body seemed to have lost consciousness and he could no longer control it. He struggled and shouted angrily: "Shut up!"
Those voices seemed to hear his voice, and the world suddenly became silent.
After a while, the scenes around Bailiming dispersed like mist blown by the wind, and the figures gradually became clearer. Each figure turned its head or stretched its neck, staring at Bailiming.
The facial features of those figures were still blurry, but their bodies varied in height, fat and thin. They raised their arms at the same time and staggered toward Bai Liming, murmuring in unison: "Stay, stay..."
Baili Ming's heart palpitated for a while, but he was unable to do anything. His mind was shaken and he fainted.
