The royal city of Cangqiu Demon Clan has never been so prosperous. Zhuang Yantong didn't know how to describe it. Walking on the wide streets, she felt that she was not in a demon clan, but in a human town or market.
There seems to be a lot of popularity, yes, it is popular. On the streets of the royal city, there are more human monks than demon monks.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Yantong felt very complicated, "Is this the time to let go of the blood feud?"
Hearing Zhuang Yantong's words, Lihua felt inexplicable, but she still said: "Yantong, if we don't let go of this bloody feud, the Cangqiu Monster Clan will cease to exist in the future. So, you can definitely choose between hatred and survival. Think clearly.”
Zhuang Yantong felt very uncomfortable. She thought of those who had died before, including her parents.
Seeing the scene in front of me, were the deaths of those people worth it? Zhuang Yantong thought for a while, but she had no answer.
Zhuang Yantong was walking on the wide street with Lihua with complicated emotions. At this moment, she heard the surroundings suddenly become noisy, and then all the monks on the street got up and rushed in one direction.
"Borrow it!" A clear voice sounded behind Zhuang Yantong. Zhuang Yantong turned sideways and saw a human monk who had just set up a stall on the roadside to sell elixirs. He directly put away the stall and squeezed past Zhuang Yantong.
Zhuang Yantong watched the crowd behind and in front of them merge into one stream and walk in one direction. Even Lihua and Zhuang Yantong were carried forward by the stream of people.
"What happened?" Zhuang Yantong asked Lihua.
Lihua held Zhuang Yantong's hand tightly and said in a daze, "I don't know either."
A female cultivator behind Li Hua and Zhuang Yantong said: "Today there are two Daluo Jinxians from Central Juntian who are giving sermons and clearing up doubts at the 'Yunfan Dojo' and 'Qingzhu Dojo' in the royal city. They are Daluo Jinxian! "
"Central Juntian?" This was the first time Zhuang Yantong heard this term.
Li Hua explained: "There are nine great thousand worlds in the three realms. The central Juntian is the hub of the three realms. The great thousand world we are in is called Northeast Biantian. This is also what those heavenly Taoist friends told me."
Zhuang Yantong's eyes lit up. She originally thought that the Heavenly Court was the heaven above the Changtian World. She didn't expect that there were other great worlds within the Three Realms. "So the Three Realms are very big?"
Lihua smiled and said: "You haven't even finished the Great World of Transformation, so don't think about things outside of the Great World of Transformation."
Zhuang Yantong's eyes flickered, and she seemed to have a new goal at this moment.
"Ouch! Which disciple is touching me?" Suddenly, the female cultivator behind Zhuang Yantong suddenly exclaimed and cursed.
At this time, a man's voice came from behind: "Who touched you? I just accidentally touched you. Besides, in this case, if you release your body-protecting fairy light, you can distance yourself!"
"I am in the Yang Shen realm, so how can I have the body-protecting immortal light?" the female cultivator said aggrievedly.
The man said: "The body-protecting aura will do, but this isn't a fight. Who would go out of their way to break your body-protecting aura?"
Lihua turned around and said to the man: "Don't worry about whether the body-protecting spiritual light is released or not. Even if you were accidentally touched, you should apologize first, right?"
Hearing this, the man hesitated for a moment, and then said to the Yang God Realm female nun: "I'm sorry."
After the Yang Shen realm female cultivator released the body-protecting spiritual light, she just shook her head when she heard the man's apology, and then looked forward.
This was a huge flow of people who had poured into Yunfan Dojo. Lihua said to Zhuang Yantong: "The Yunfan Dojo and Qingzhu Dojo were built by those heavenly soldiers. Anyway, as long as you know, all the novel things you see in the royal city , as long as they are all cultivated by heavenly soldiers."
After saying that, Li Hua and Zhuang Yantong had entered Yunfan Dojo. As soon as they entered Yunfan Dojo, the originally crowded crowd suddenly became sparse.
Zhuang Yantong looked at Yunfan Dojo in surprise. It didn't look very big, but thousands of monks poured in at once and didn't feel crowded at all?
"This place is protected by the mighty power of the Great Luo." Lihua said: "It may not look very big from the outside, but once you come in, it is extremely wide and vast."
After that, Lihua and Zhuang Yantong chose a path and walked in directly.
There were many people on the road chosen by the two. Lihua quickly found the heavenly soldiers stationed nearby and asked, "Fellow Taoist, dare I ask where the Daluo Jinxian is in Yunfan Dojo?"
"Are you asking about Taoist Master Hongjun?" Tianbing said to Lihua: "The Daluo Jinxian in Yunfan Dojo is Taoist Hongjun, and the one in Qingzhu Dojo is Great Sun Tathagata. You two follow this path If you keep going straight ahead, you will reach the place where Taoist Master Hongjun preaches."
Hearing this, Lihua quickly thanked her, but she turned around and asked, "Just because we listened to the sermon at the Yunfan Dojo, can we still go to the Qingzhu Dojo to listen to the sermon?"
"Okay." Tianbing nodded and said: "There are no restrictions on listening to the sermon. You can go wherever you want. However, the two venerables only talked about it until the day before the ceremony starts, so you must hurry up."
Lihua immediately bowed her hands and thanked him. Tianbing nodded slightly in return, and then continued to stay on duty.
"Let's hurry up. There are still six days before the ceremony starts, which means that the two venerables only have five days to preach." Lihua said to Zhuang Yantong.
Zhuang Yantong also nodded. She knew how valuable this opportunity was. Daluo Jinxian said, "It's really like this village without this store."
Then the two of them walked forward along the road, passing through many fairy corridors and treasure gardens, and soon they came to a huge stone platform shrouded in fairy light.
At this moment, the stone platform was already full of people, and directly above the stone platform, a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe, wearing a purple gold crown, and holding a whisk in his hand was sitting cross-legged on Qingyun.
But this man had his eyes slightly closed at the moment, and he didn't make any sound. He didn't look like he was preaching.
Lihua and Zhuang Yantong respectfully walked to the crowd and waited for a long time, but they saw the crowd moving forward and did not hear any preaching.
At this time, Lihua couldn't help but ask a monk in front: "Didn't you talk about preaching? Why didn't you preach?"
The monk in front turned around and looked at the two of them, then smiled and said: "Taoist Master Hongjun said that if he preaches, he will not be able to finish it in a few years, and the Cangqiu Demon Clan's grand ceremony is close at hand, so Don’t talk about ordinary things.”
"Oh? You don't preach the ordinary way?" Lihua and Zhuang Yantong looked at each other, and then asked: "How do you preach?"
The monk said respectfully: "Everyone can ask Taoist Master Hongjun a question about cultivation, and Taoist Master Hongjun will answer it himself."
Hearing this, Lihua and Zhuang Yantong's eyes lit up at the same time. Isn't this much better than preaching? Everyone listens to the sermon, but some people understand it and others don't. Even if people with high moral standards can understand it, but people with low moral conduct can't, there is still a gap in speaking.
But it would be much fairer if everyone asked a question about spiritual practice and Taoist Master Hongjun answered it himself.
"Fellow Taoists, please line up first. It will be your turn soon." After the monk in front finished speaking, he turned around and concentrated on queuing up.
Li Hua and Zhuang Yantong quickly spotted an open seat and stood up in formation. Behind them, many more monks came to the stone platform one after another.
After about two sticks of incense, Lihua and Zhuang Yantong were finally in line. However, there were thirty people in their line, and in front of them was a light gate formed by thirty rays of fairy light.
I saw the thirty light gates lighting up with fairy light one after another, and then monks walked out one after another from the light gates. I saw that they were either solemn, frowning, smiling, or solemn. All living beings All kinds of things appear one by one.
"It's your turn." The heavenly soldiers on duty in front of the Guangmen said to Lihua and others.
Lihua asked: "Which door should we enter?"
The Heavenly Soldier smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, any door is fine."
Lihua nodded, and then stepped forward with Zhuang Yantong and walked into a light gate.
Then Lihua felt a white fairy light flash before her eyes, and then she seemed to hear the sound of clear streams and the sound of wind blowing in the trees.
"It turns out to be a pear tree fairy." When Lihua heard this voice, the white fairy light in front of her eyes disappeared instantly, and then she found herself on a bright and pure fairy mountain, and Taoist Master Hongjun was sitting cross-legged. Under an ancient pine tree.
Lihua quickly bowed to Taoist Master Hongjun: "Little fairy Lihua, pay your respects to Taoist Master Hongjun."
Taoist Master Hongjun waved the dust in his hand and asked, "What do you want to ask?"
Hearing this, Lihua pondered for a moment, and then bowed: "What Xiaoxian wants to ask is how to not be afraid of gold and fire."
Taoist Master Hongjun smiled, looked at Lihua and said, "You were originally a pear tree demon and became an immortal, and you practiced the Taoist method of the wood attribute, right?"
Lihua bowed and said, "Hui Dao Master, that's right."
Taoist Master Hongjun nodded slightly, then gently stroked the immortal beard and said: "If you want not to be afraid of gold, you can practice the 'Iron Wood' method. If you want to not be afraid of fire." Taoist Master Hongjun shook his head and said: "Then Let me lend you a poem."
Lihua immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Taoist Master, for your guidance."
Taoist Master Hongjun said slowly: "The grass in Lili Plain dries up every year. The wild fire cannot burn it all, but it grows again when the spring breeze blows."
Lihua looked confused. She raised her head and wanted to ask again, but found that Taoist Master Hongjun was no longer there. "The method of iron wood. Wild fire cannot be burned out. Spring breeze blows and regenerates?"
Lihua repeatedly recited the instructions given to her by Taoist Master Hongjun. She seemed to have a clear understanding in her heart, but she felt hazy and unclear, as if there was a thin gauze curtain in front of her eyes blocking her sight, making her unable to see. I don’t know what the world behind the gauze curtain looks like.
In the light door on the other side, Zhuang Yantong also saw Taoist Master Hongjun sitting cross-legged under the ancient pine.
Taoist Master Hongjun opened his eyes, but there was a trace of surprise in his eyes. He looked at Zhuang Yantong in front of him, with an extremely surprised expression on his face.
Zhuang Yantong looked at Taoist Master Hongjun's expression. Although he was confused, he still bowed his hands and said, "Xiaoxianzhuang Yantong, pay your respects to Taoist Master Hongjun."
Taoist Master Hongjun's expression returned to normal, he smiled at Zhuang Yantong and said, "No need to be polite, what do you want to ask?"
Zhuang Yantong asked directly: "Dare you ask me, Master, is practice useful?"
Taoist Master Hongjun changed his mind and immediately understood why Zhuang Yantong asked this question, so he said: "It works, you are in the true fairyland now. If the heavenly soldiers want to kill you immediately, they must use Huaguang Baogun. And if You are just a mortal, you don’t need heavenly weapons or Huaguang Baogun, you only need a monk in the inner alchemy realm, and with a flick of his finger, you will disappear into thin air.”
Zhuang Yantong nodded and bowed: "Tao Master's words were concise and concise. In just a few words, he cleared up the confusion in Xiaoxian's heart. Xiaoxian is very grateful."
However, Taoist Master Hongjun shook his head and said: "There are still things you don't understand in your heart. You need to understand that any magic weapon is just an external object. All methods must be sought by oneself. No matter how powerful the Huaguang Baogun is, killing immortals is the limit. A great virtuous person in the Golden Immortal Realm only needs to be protected by immortal light at all times, and the Huaguang Baogun will be useless."
"Everything must be done to oneself." When Zhuang Yantong heard these words, his eyes immediately lit up with a bright light, "Everything is to be done to oneself, I understand!"
All the confusion and confusion in Zhuang Yantong's heart was instantly cleared. She suddenly knelt on the ground and worshiped Taoist Master Hongjun: "Thank you, little immortal, for your guidance."
Taoist Master Hongjun smiled slightly, and then slowly disappeared.
Zhuang Yantong watched Taoist Master Hongjun leave and immediately stood up. At this time, she no longer had any confusion or confusion, and her temperament became firm and clear.
Then Zhuang Yantong turned around and stepped out of the light door.
'Wow'
Immortal light flashed, and Lihua and Zhuang Yantong immediately appeared on the stone platform, and together with them there were a dozen other monks.
Lihua and Zhuang Yantong looked at each other, and Lihua felt relieved when she saw Zhuang Yantong's clear and firm temperament.
But when she thought of Taoist Master Hongjun's advice to her, Lihua's heart was entangled with endless confusion and confusion.
"Let's go." Zhuang Yantong came to Lihua and said.
Lihua nodded, suppressed the confusion in her heart, then looked at Zhuang Yantong and said, "Have you solved it?"
Zhuang Yantong nodded and said, "I'm a little enlightened."
"Envy." There was indeed a trace of envy on Lihua's face. Zhuang Yantong was enlightened, but she was confused again.
Zhuang Yantong looked at Lihua's expression and asked, "How are you?"
Lihua said as she walked: "It's better not to ask. I'm very confused now."
"Would you like to talk about it?" Zhuang Yantong asked.
Lihua thought for a while and told Zhuang Yantong what Taoist Master Hongjun had told her. Zhuang Yantong was also confused after hearing it.
"Are you going to be burned to death first?" Zhuang Yantong asked doubtfully.
Hearing this, Lihua shuddered immediately and quickly said to Zhuang Yantong: "Nonsense, how can there be such a cultivation method?"
Zhuang Yantong thought about it seriously, and then said: "If you can't figure it out, why not go to Qingzhu Dojo and ask the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha again?"
Lihua's eyes lit up and she immediately smiled and said, "Good idea, let's go."
So the two of them left Yunfan Dojo directly and came all the way to Qingzhu Dojo.
But as soon as they arrived at the Qingzhu Dojo, they found that the place was crowded with people. Although the Qingzhu Dojo was also extremely spacious, the number of people was obviously much greater than that at the Yunfan Dojo.
After the two girls entered the Qingzhu Dojo, Lihua seemed to have discovered something, and immediately said in surprise: "Aren't these people the same people from the Yunfan Dojo in front?"
"Yes." As soon as Lihua finished speaking, a young man's voice came from next to him. Lihua and Zhuang Yantong turned around and saw a young man in black sitting without any image on the stone platform of the flower bed next to him. There was a heavenly soldier, but the heavenly soldier turned a blind eye to this young man.
I saw the young man saying: "The Great Sun Tathagata is obviously robbing Taoist Master Hongjun of his business. It's really insidious. Those who have received advice from Taoist Master Hongjun but are not enlightened all come to the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha." After all, it’s the Buddha who knows best how to teach and save people.”
Lihua glanced at the young man twice, then immediately raised his hand and asked, "Is your fellow Taoist a member of the Heavenly Court?"
The young man smiled and said: "I am a poor man, Xu Hongyuan."
Lihua's pupils shrank, and she immediately cupped her hands and said, "It turns out to be You Yilingshen, young general Lihua is polite."
Xu Hongyuan laughed, and then raised his hand to wave to the side. Li Hua and Zhuang Yantong turned to look, and saw Yaosheng being led over by a heavenly soldier.
"Did he come with you?" Xu Hongyuan asked, pointing to Yaosheng.
Zhuang Yantong nodded and said: "We came together, but we are not familiar with each other."
Xu Hongyuan nodded and said: "I can tell, I'm really not familiar with him. Fellow Taoist Yaosheng, don't be afraid, you're fine now."
After saying that, Xu Hongyuan said to Lihua and Zhuang Yantong: "What a coincidence. Fellow Taoist Yaosheng is going to see the Great Sun Tathagata now. You two should be too, right?"
Lihua said: "Yes, I just got some guidance from Taoist Master Hongjun, but there are still some things I don't understand, so I want to ask the Great Sun Tathagata for advice."
Xu Hongyuan said: "Then come with me. I will take you and Taoist fellow Yaosheng there together, so you can avoid the pain of waiting."
Hearing this, Li Hua suddenly became happy and bowed quickly: "Then thank you Spirit God You Yi."
Then Xu Hongyuan stood up, took Yaosheng, Lihua, and Zhuang Yantong to ride on the clouds, and flew directly towards the stone sermon platform where the Great Sun Tathagata was located in the Qingzhu Dojo.
Flying in the mid-air, feeling the breeze in the sky and the surprised looks from below, Zhuang Yantong asked Lihua in a low voice: "Didn't it say that flying is prohibited in the royal city?"
Lihua rolled her eyes at Zhuang Yantong and said, "You are stupid. The no-fly order was issued by someone else."
After hearing the conversation between Li Hua and Zhuang Yantong, Xu Hongyuan explained with a smile: "Flying away is prohibited in the royal city. First, it is because the royal city is surrounded by thick earth and rock formations, and the air space is limited. Second, it is forbidden because of the fear of traitors. Escape and leave enough airspace for the heavenly soldiers to patrol and picket."
"That's it." Zhuang Yantong said sincerely: "It's amazing how thoughtful it is."
Xu Hongyuan smiled faintly, which made Li Hua blush on the side. She said to Zhuang Yantong: "These are the regulations of the Heavenly Army's "Control Laws". They have been formulated long ago. As long as these regulations are activated at the right time, it will be fine." . Of course it seems very thoughtful to us, but in fact it is just a rule that Heaven has perfected long ago."
Zhuang Yantong was slightly shocked after hearing this, and understood why Lihua blushed. Compared with the Tianjun, the previous Cangqiu Monster Clan was a rabble at best.
Although the Cangqiu Monster Clan also has laws and regulations, they are very rough and not so detailed at all. Moreover, fighting with others is also a common battle between monks. In general, it can be summed up in one word: chaos.
Looking at these heavenly soldiers and generals, Zhuang Yantong thought for a long time and found that there are only two words that can describe the heavenly army: system.
That's right, it's a system, a complete set of institutional systems!
Unified standard magic weapons and instruments, a complete grade system and promotion channels, and huge resource support
At this moment, Zhuang Yantong even developed a 'monster phobia'. In her mind, Heaven was an extremely powerful 'behemoth' overlooking the three realms.
Zhuang Yantong suddenly discovered that if the system of Heavenly Court was extremely perfect from top to bottom, then only another set of the same and perfect system could compete with it. Otherwise, no sect or force would be able to resist this kind of power. Power.
(There will be another chapter later because I wrote the chapters for the next day on the first day, so after updating one chapter from the two chapters I wrote last night, this is the only one left. The next chapter can’t be started until after I get off work at eight o’clock. Writing, so it may be late. But don’t worry, no matter how late, the release date of the next chapter will definitely be 'May 13th')
