Chapter 405: The Saints of the Eight Views Palace Discuss the Trend
After the extremely dazzling light dissipated, the peaks of Ningzhen Cave had completely collapsed, and even the large peaks of Kuocang Mountain were seriously affected. Many of the wonderful and beautiful scenery that had just been vividly seen no longer existed, leaving only fragments of
The peaks are broken and the mountains are scorched, which shows how terrifying Lu Ya's self-destruction power is.
The leaked purple evil energy flew all over the sky. Bixiao's heart moved, and he immediately took out a small bottle, threw it into the air, and gathered a lot of it. Zhang Zixing looked at the devastated Kuocang Mountain and couldn't help but sigh: In this world,
, even if there are still theories about the ten great caves in the future, they will not be named Kuocang.
Yun Xiao suddenly frowned, his blue eyes turned black, looked into the distance, and said in shock: "That Lu Ya actually escaped!"
Zhang Zixing, Bixiao, and Qiongxiao were all shocked: Didn't Lu Ya just blow himself up?
"He has fled far away, and it is difficult for me to see it with my eyesight," Yunxiao sighed, pointing to the shape of a short staff with a faint light in the sky, "It was this thing that exploded just now. Lu Ya used this thing to
The power of the explosion broke through my confinement technique, and I used my secret technique to escape far away."
"This staff is so powerful!" Zhang Zixing put away the Jiuding, jumped into the air, and grabbed the staff, but failed. The image of the short staff gradually faded, and finally scattered into countless light spots.
There was something vaguely in the shape of a strange bird, and then it disappeared.
When Qiong Xiao saw the bird shape, he looked thoughtful: "Could this be the staff of the sun? Unfortunately, it has disappeared into thin air."
Yunxiao and Bixiao were both shocked when they heard this. Zhang Zixing took the time-travel household registration book from the Time and Space Administration. He obviously didn't know enough about the "history" of this world, and looked at a loss.
According to Qiong Xiao, the Rod of Sunlight is the magic weapon of Emperor Jun, one of the two demon emperors. It is so powerful that Emperor Jun loves it very much and often holds it in his hand. After Emperor Jun combined with Fairy Xihe, he gave the Rod of Sunlight as a gift.
It was given to Xihe Fairy. During the battle between demons and demons, Emperor Jun died, and his wives Xihe and Chang Xi also died accordingly. The whereabouts of the Sunbright Staff were unknown, but unexpectedly it fell into the hands of Lu Ya.
Qiong Xiao thought for a while, suddenly thought of something, and said: "It is said that Xihe gave the Rod of Sunlight to one of his favorite sons for self-defense, and this Lu Ya possesses extremely strong power of fire, and also possesses the Rod of Sunlight.
Could it be that the staff is related to the surviving prince of the demon clan in the past? Perhaps it is the same person?"
"Prince of the Monster Tribe?" Zhang Zixing looked suspicious. When he and Lu Ya were gambling in Meishan that day, he once said that he became enlightened at the beginning of the Hunyuan Dynasty, and the leader of Tongtian also mentioned that Lu Ya was the spirit of Lihuo from ancient times. If so,
In terms of age, Lu Ya should be much older than the demon prince born to Na Xi and Fairy. How could they be the same person?
Zhang Zixing is not in the mood to delve into such ancient gossip and anecdotes. Originally, he was almost sure to kill Lu Ya this time, but he finally escaped. With Lu Ya's personality, he will never give up. Lu Ya is considered one of the best in the original work.
The mysterious master who once escaped easily under the five-color divine light of Jin Jiaojian and Kong Xuan, now it seems that it is really not that easy to solve. If there is another chance next time, he must use his full strength as soon as he comes up, and use lightning speed
Cover your ears and eliminate this scourge.
Fortunately, Zhang Zixing's current strength can surely defeat Lu Ya, and Lu Ya's only remaining magical weapon, the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, can't do anything to him, so he is not too anxious, but only strengthens his determination to send Lu Ya to the list of gods.
The Xuan Yin San practitioner had been cast by Lu Ya for many days, and his immortal power had shrunk extremely. After taking Yun Xiao's elixir, he still improved unabated and fell into a coma. Seeing Yun Xiao's anxious face, Zhang Zixing took out a Qian Kun Return
The rebirth elixir came and was handed over to Yunxiao. When Yunxiao heard the name of the Qiankun rebirth elixir, he immediately showed joy and took it, using his celestial power to help Xuanyin Sanren convert the medicine.
The elixir refined by Han Zhixian from the West Kunlun immortal materials was indeed very effective. After a while, Xuanyin Sanren's face gradually became rosy, and he finally woke up.
Xuanyin Sanren still vaguely remembered that he was captured by a short Taoist. Now he saw the strange man and woman in front of him, and he was very surprised. It was not until Yunxiao revealed his identity that he realized that this sweet-looking blue-eyed fairy was actually his old friend.
After listening to what Yun Xiao said about what happened, Xuanyin Sanxin looked at the severely damaged Kuocang Mountain with lingering fear, sighed with emotion, and thanked the four people for their help.
Without this cave where the Purple Evil Qi condenses, Xuanyin Sanren need not worry about repeating the same mistakes, but they have to find another cave. When Xuanyin Sanren learned that Xiaoyaozi, who was extremely ordinary in appearance and cultivation, actually married Sanxiao
The empress was greatly surprised and wanted to inquire. Unexpectedly, Xiaoyaozi seemed to have an "introverted" personality and seemed unwilling to say more. Xuanyin Sanren couldn't help but become more curious. Zhang Zixing deduced that there were important things and he couldn't stay for a long time.
Chatted with this San Renduo and left Kuocang Mountain with Sanxiao.
On the way back to Chaoge, Bixiao said with a smile: "Husband, that Xuanyin Sanren is also a beautiful woman, why did you leave in such a hurry? Could it be that there is something wrong in your heart?"
When Zhang Zixing heard this, he rolled his eyes: At first it was obviously you who said you were afraid that I would have another entanglement with another woman, but now that I am honest, I am actually said to have a ghost in my heart?
Seeing Zhang Zixing's angry look, Yunxiao understood what was on his mind and smiled without saying a word. Qiongxiao, with a clear mind, deliberately added: "Husband, now the cave of Xuanyin has been destroyed and there is no place to stay. Why don't we go back again?"
Take her to the East China Sea Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion?"
Bixiao kept nodding his head: "Exactly! This is exactly what the saying goes, 'The one who is near the water and the tower first gets the moon'..."
"You Bixiao, you know that your husband has no intention of doing this, yet you are still so lazy!" Zhang Zixing was so angry that she turned Bixiao over and gave her elastic buttocks a few "slaps".
Even when he was enforcing the "family law" on the back of the dragon and horse, Bixiao did not "retaliate" like usual, but let him do whatever he wanted with a blushing face.
Zhang Zixing looked at the charming expression on Bixiao's face, and his heart boiled. He almost had the urge to "rectify the Fa on the spot". Amidst the laughter of Yunxiao and Qiongxiao, the four of them finally returned to Chaoge.
At the same time, in the Eight Views Palace, Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Cult Leader, Taoist Master Zhunti, and the six great saints of the time, Nuwa Empress, were gathered together to discuss important matters.
Since the Six Saints of Zixiao Palace discussed the canonization of gods, this is the first time that the six Hunyuan Saints have gathered together. The location chosen in the Bajing Palace also has a mysterious connotation. The purpose of the gathering of the Six Saints this time is to discuss the human world and the murderous calamity.
, among them, the three parties of Tongtian Cult Leader's Interception Teaching, Yuanshi Tianzun's Explanation Teaching, Zhunti Taoist and the Western Cult who accepted Taoist Master are hostile to each other, so this "meeting" is not suitable for any party. Laozi is the founder of Yuanshi and Tongtian.
The eldest brother is the oldest and respected by everyone, so he was chosen to discuss it in the Eight Views Palace, and all three parties had no objections. Although the six saints had some grudges against each other, they all acted as if nothing had happened at this time.
After all the saints were seated, I was the first to speak: "At the invitation of the second junior brother and two Taoist friends from the Western Sect, I specially invite Empress Nuwa and the third junior brother to come and discuss important matters together."
Yuanshi Tianzun said: "It is rare for all Taoist friends to gather here, and today we are just discussing the matter of killing and tribulation."
The leader of Tongtian Cult frowned and said: "There will be a destiny in the killing and calamity, so why bother to mobilize people and discuss it again?"
The Taoist who led the way opened his mouth and said, "Fellow Taoist Tongtian, have you not heard of the appointment made the day before yesterday in the human world, Shang Zhou?"
Leader Tongtian sneered and said: "I have heard something, but this statement is so ridiculous. Killing and calamity is the general trend of heaven. It is just a response to the calamity through the war in the human world. How can it end because of this? Even if the Western Zhou Dynasty wins and destroys the Shang Dynasty,
, and wars will continue until the killings and calamities are completely over."
All the saints knew that what Master Tongtian said was by no means a lie, and that the situation of "continuous wars and calamities" was something Yuanshi Tianzun or Jie Yin and Zhunti who had direct interests connected with the Western Zhou Dynasty did not want to see.
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded and said: "What the third junior brother said is absolutely true. Because of this, I asked senior brother to invite you all to come and discuss this matter."
The Taoist leader said: "Fellow Taoists, please discuss matters in the human world first. Emperor Zhou and King Wu Jifa both proposed that the war in the human world should be fought by humans. They wanted to ban all Taoist and immortal magic, and asked me
When we are not allowed to participate in the war with other sects, we will just have a decisive battle in the way of the human world to determine the victory or defeat. What do you think?"
The leader of Tongtian Cult said indifferently: "If everything in the human world is done by humans, what is the use of dividing the heavenly status? There are many people in the three religions who are worthy of disaster, and they have also suffered a lot of damage in the war in the human world. It is just to adapt.
The potential of killing and catastrophe. If it is just a pure war in the human world, how can it be included in the list? Then the war will inevitably happen again! Could this be the wish of the three of you?"
Yuanshi Tianzun said: "Three junior brothers are gone! I don't want to make the killing calamity continue for many more years, but I want to end the war in the human world together, so as not to cause chaos again and cause suffering to all living beings."
Lao Tzu nodded in approval: "This is a very good thing, my second junior brother. The killings and calamities came about through the wars of Shang and Zhou, and they also ended with the wars of Shang and Zhou. It is not appropriate to delay or add new details to violate the way of heaven."
The Second Sage of the West and Yuanshi Tianzun had a general idea, so they would not object. Empress Nuwa also expressed her approval.
Seeing that the five saints agreed, the leader of Tongtian Cult no longer insisted on this aspect, and asked: "If the war in the human world is all done by humans, how will the killing and calamity be ended?"
Taoist Zhunti said: "The purpose of the human world is to prevent immortal magic from harming mortals. Furthermore, to end the war purely between human races, it can also make both the victor and the loser convinced. This request should be reasonable. From Pindao's point of view,
Come on, you might as well agree to this request, ban Taoism in the human world, and not allow disciples to participate in the war, and separate the battle between humans and immortals. Once the battle in the human world is over, the battle between Xuan Dao immortals will also be ended, which is just right.
Number of days.”
"Will the war between humans and immortals be divided into separate battles?" Lao Tzu looked thoughtful, as if he was carefully considering the feasibility of this proposal.
The leader of Tongtian Cult showed a dissatisfied look: "So this is what you two sects are trying to do! Your two sects have been secretly helping the Western Zhou Dynasty, and many of my Jie sects have disciples in the great merchants. As a result, there have been many fights between the two sides, and the Western Zhou Dynasty has suffered many defeats.
The Shang Dynasty is now strong and the Zhou Dynasty is weak. If the Shang Dynasty bans Taoism according to this suggestion, wouldn't the great Shang Dynasty be sacrificing their own strengths and using shortcomings to meet the enemy? How can they defeat the Western Zhou Dynasty? By then the Western Zhou Dynasty will defeat the Shang Dynasty.
Where do your two religions put my religion? This proposal is absolutely impossible!"
"Third Junior Brother, why are you so persistent?" Yuanshi Tianzun sighed: "In the past, all Taoist friends once calculated in Zixiao Palace that the Great Shang Dynasty was prosperous and then declined. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, a Holy Lord was born in response to the calamity. When the Zhou Dynasty was established, the Shang Dynasty was destroyed.
In this way, the divine way is reorganized to correspond to the number of heaven. The general trend of the heavenly way, the mysterious way, and the human way are all in the catastrophe. Even you and I, saints, cannot stay out of it. You intercept the teachings and help the great merchants, and you are doing it to cope with the catastrophe, not against the heaven.
The rise and fall of Zhou Dynasty and Shang Dynasty is the general trend of heaven and cannot be changed. If you are eager to win and insist on asking your disciples to help Emperor Zhou of Heaven to conquer Ji Fa, even if you win a momentary victory, it will only make the whole killing calamity last for decades or even...
Hundreds of years will only increase the casualties caused by war, and ultimately it will be difficult to reverse the decline of the Great Shang Dynasty."
The meaning of Yuanshi Tianzun is very clear: no matter how much you help Dachang, at most it will only prolong the war and waste strength in vain. The final result of "Shang destroyed Zhou Xing" calculated by the Six Saints back then will not change.
You have damaged the strength of the three religions for nothing.
Empress Nuwa said: "Brother Tongtian, if this is really the case, all life in the world will be devastated. It is very inappropriate, so please think carefully."
Leader Tongtian shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, you don't know something. My second senior brother is very scheming. Early in the morning, he took Jiang Ziya, the man who conferred the title of god, as his disciple. He also ordered him to abandon business and join the Zhou Dynasty to seize the opportunity. In the end, the Western Zhou Dynasty won. He
Chanjiao should have its own destiny and become a great success in the world."
Lao Tzu sighed and said: "Third Junior Brother, you and I, the saints, are all immortal bodies. We have long been accustomed to seeing life and death, and everything has its ups and downs. Why should we be obsessed with it for a while?"
"Senior Brother, although you and I come from the same sect, we have different ways. Senior Brother's way is to be quiet and inactive; while my way is the way of 'resurrection', and I have a very wide sect. This killing and calamity has nothing to do with it.
Those two religions also have a lot of causes and effects, so I can’t just sit back and watch.”
Taoist Jie Yin said: "Fellow Taoist Tongtian is right. There are entanglements and grievances between our three sects. It is just right to use this to settle the matter. Firstly, it can complete the cause and effect, and secondly, it can deal with the catastrophe."
Leader Tongtian sneered: "Your Western Sect used the name of Kunlun Jade in the South China Sea to fight against each other and instigated the Quan Rong to invade eastward. At the same time, you secretly communicated with Xiqi in an attempt to have both sides... Well, now it's just a matter of course.
Make a break!"
Taoist Zhunti heard about the incident in the South China Sea and interjected: "Since I came here to complete the killing and calamity, I should follow the way of killing and calamity. In the human world, my teaching and Chan teaching stand on the west side, and you intercept and teach to help
Dashang. Today's battle should also be fought between your religion and mine."
The leader of Tongtian Cult had a bright light in his eyes, and he looked towards Yuanshi Tianzun: "Second Senior Brother, do you also have this intention?"
Yuanshi Tianzun seemed not to notice the resentful look in Tongtian Cult Leader's eyes, and said lightly: "It should be so."
The leader of Tongtian Cult glanced at Lao Tzu, and said angrily to Yuanshi Tianzun: "Yuanshi! You and I, our fellow apprentices, studied in the same school. Although they have different paths, each has its own teaching, and we are enemies in the murderous calamity, but we all come from the same source. In the past, you
Burning lamps under the door broke the teachings and came out. You were trapped by Zhunti and Jieyin. I cared about the friendship between the same disciples and went to help you without forgetting the old evil. I said back then that your family and I were fighting within ourselves, which was different from outsiders. Now
You actually brought outsiders to beat me, isn't it just like beating you?"
I was also present when the four saints were fighting each other that day, and couldn't help but sigh. When Yuanshi Tianzun heard the word "burning lamp", the light in his eyes fleetingly disappeared, but his expression did not change at all, and he said: "You and I are from the same sect.
Love is selfish, and killing and calamity is for the public good. How can we forget public service for selfish reasons? This time our religion joins forces with Western religions to fight against each other, and this is also the trend of the great power of heaven."
The leader of Tongtian Cult stood up and said with an angry smile: "What a selfish person who forgets his official duties! Since the three of you have colluded for a long time, why are you having today's discussion?"
Seeing that Master Tongtian was about to leave, I quickly said: "Third Junior Brother, please calm down. Although Second Junior Brother's argument is ruthless, it is not unreasonable. This time humans and immortals are fighting, there are karma and grievances.
It's time to settle things clearly. At that time, the disputes between the mysterious world and the human world will be ended, the way of heaven will be reorganized, and those who are in trouble can be listed as gods, which will also be a great meritorious deed."
Empress Nuwa nodded and said: "Brother Li Dao is right, everything here is the cause and effect of the killing and calamity. Once the killing and calamity is over, all Taoist brothers will be Hunyuan bodies, and there will be no more entanglements."
In fact, Tongtian Cult Leader and Zhang Zixing had already expected that the Chan Cult and the Western Church would once again temporarily unite for profit to deal with the Jie Cult. This was just a hard-to-get trick, making the Western Cult and the Chan Cult even less able to fight against the human world.
I believe it. However, Yuanshi Tianzun, as the second senior brother, had no shame in inviting outsiders to fight against his fellow sect, which really made Master Tongtian angry and almost wanted to fall out on the spot. But after all, he was a Saint of Hunyuan, with profound cultivation, and had been taught by Laozi and
Nuwa persuaded her and calmed down again, saying: "Now it seems that the three of you have made up their minds to work together to suppress our sect. Since it is inevitable, how can we retreat? With the strength of our sect, even if you join forces,
, there is also a fight! How you want to fight, just say it, I will teach you."
Yuanshi Tianzun was not in a hurry to tell the way of the battle in Xuan Dao, because this kind of victory or defeat is not the key to explaining the teaching. It is better to decide the battle in the human world first, and then said: "In this way, the battle in the human world
, it’s up to people to do it. Do you have any objections?”
I suddenly remembered that when Zhang Zixing confronted Yuanshi Tianzun that day, he had made a request to him that "things taught by people must be done by people." I couldn't help but ponder: Judging from the current situation, isn't it just in line with that emperor's request?
Intention? With the wisdom and courage of Emperor Zhou, could there be some unknown secret in this war in the human world?
Yuanshi Tianzun saw that all the saints agreed, but I was the only one who showed doubts, and immediately said: "Elder brother, why are you hesitant? Is it because of Xiaoyaozi's matter?"
I was shocked: Could it be that the second junior brother already knows the true identity of Xiaoyaozi? Yuanshi Tianzun caught a glimpse of the strange look in my eyes, thought he was right, and said again: "That Xiaoyaozi is highly valued by senior brother, and not only went to help him personally
, and also guided him to obtain the most precious treasure such as Jiuding. This person must have the aura of a supreme emperor. Could he be the descendant of Xia Yu? Although I don’t know the purpose of this move of the senior brother, the destruction of Zhou Xing by Shang is determined by heaven. Senior brother
Why waste your efforts?"
Only then did I know that this second junior brother had a misunderstanding. It was not so much a "misunderstanding" as a kind of "suspiciousness." Since the last time Xiaoyaozi summoned him with a jade talisman to rescue him, Yuanshi Tianzun had kept this suspicion buried.
Deep down in my heart, at this critical moment of making a decision, something has changed, and I finally couldn't help but say it.
I took a deep look at Yuanshi Tianzun, sighed, smiled and shook his head: "I have no objection."
Yuanshi Tianzun was relieved, but he never paid attention to the deep meaning in Laozi's smile.
