Sure enough, before the elders of the sects dispersed, the head of Xuanling received a message from his disciples, saying that Lin Yao had handed over the Taoist treatise to Shanmen.
The head of Xuanling said, "I, the majestic Wannian Mountain Gate, have watched the rise and fall of many princes. Seeing her is like seeing a mayfly passing by day and night. How could I agree to such an unreasonable request to report Taoism records? But she is doing it in the name of discussing Taoism. If you want to see me, let me see what kind of ugly Yinmao she can come up with."
After that, leave your seat and go.
But he didn't expect that Zhan Changfeng was really just discussing things with him.
When the head of Xuanling sent her down the mountain to leave, he was still shocked and confused. What shocked him was that her insights into principles and laws were profound and exquisite, which made him feel like he was standing on a mountain for a moment. What made him confused was that she didn't mention anything about Taoism.
Is it possible that the few small sects who agreed to report her status did not succumb to her coercion, but were convinced by her arguments? strangeness.
In fact, he guessed half of it.
Others thought Zhan Changfeng was showing off her power, but she herself saw it as enlightenment. This enlightenment was not about asking others to agree with her opinions, but rather in order to make others agree with her own virtue and Taoism.
It is easy for small sects with a short inheritance to become convinced of her. Just like registering their household registration, they register their Taoist registration under the name of Taiyi and seek the protection of Taiyi. The sects have their own persistence, and she doesn't want to bring them all under her banner at once. Now she is just giving a signal first and slowly planning for it later.
Moreover, discussing the Tao with supernatural powers or spiritual insights has also been of great help to her.
Zhan Changfeng walked through the mountains and rivers alone, and every sect that discussed matters with her became strangely silent. The monks who didn't know what was going on became even more anxious. The head of Xuangu inquired in many ways, and got a person who said, "I am a Taoist and dare not make unreasonable comments." respond.
She walked, talked, and sorted out the dragon's veins, but no one noticed her hidden purpose. It's really because the sects, cities, and big clans in the way were all founded by taking advantage of the dragon vein, so it's not surprising that she would talk about it and show off her power.
Three months later, Zhan Changfeng completed half of Beizhao. The old tribes and affiliated princes of the Donglin Dynasty were also properly dealt with by Lianwei and others. Those that should be eliminated were eliminated, those that should be collected were collected, and those that should be canonized were re-canonized. Everything turned to dust. settled.
The accident that had been foreshadowed for a long time also broke out at the right time, leaving people unable to relax for a moment.
At that time, Zhan Changfeng was walking outside the mountain gate of the Xuangu Sect. The head of the Xuangu Sect was standing at the door of the main hall on the peak, her figure reflected in the water mirror in front of her.
"I'm here to teach you how to make various sects shut up." A trace of fighting spirit flashed in the eyes of the master of Xuangu, and he sent instructions to the disciples guarding the mountain from a distance, "If anyone comes to hand you a discussion post, let her discuss a topic first."
"As far as... the common people are not guilty!" he said resolutely.
A paper crane was drawn from the mountain peak close to the sky, passed through the sea of clouds, passed over the vast mountains and lakes, fell into the hands of the disciples guarding the mountain, and turned into characters.
The disciple guarding the mountain looked outside the mountain gate. At the far end of the road, a lonely and tall figure became increasingly clear.
"I have been looking up to the Dao of the Xuan Gu for a long time. Now I am submitting a discussion post on the Dao. I would like to collect a discussion from those who have mastered the Dao of the Xuan Gu."
The disciple guarding the mountain followed the order and asked this gentle and courteous monk, "Those who are handing me the Taoist post, please answer a question first and ask for advice. Are the people guilty?"
The head of Xuangu stopped the Taoist post with a question, which was quite a bit of a show of force. Moreover, his question was also interesting. Who among the Taoists in the world would dare to say that the common people are guilty?
The monk said, "What's wrong with the common people?" and entered the world to slay demons.
The Holy Land said, "How can the common people be harmed?" and recruited disciples to open the way.
The princes and emperors said, "How can the common people be harmed?" They founded the country and made laws to protect the territory.
Are there any people who say that the common people are guilty? Of course there are, but most of them come from the mouths of villains who have no regard for human life.
Zhan Changfeng thought about it carefully and knew that the head of Xuangu was sure that she would defend the innocence of the people. When she stepped into the mountain gate, he would probably use themes such as war and plunder to refute her actions, scolding her for talking about the innocence of the people while trapping her. People are born in dire straits.
Are all living beings really innocent? No one in all living beings is innocent. Killing, lying, laziness, jealousy, following the herd, greed, thinking evil... Everyone's life is a process of making constant mistakes.
Are people really guilty? People are not necessarily guilty, because the laws of the world are divided into morals and laws. Most people live under the laws. Even if morals are damaged, it is a matter of style and not a crime. Therefore, throughout the ages, there are Those who came one after another held the banner of "What's wrong with the common people" to protect the common people.
She knew that the monk who asked the question was listening to her answer, and he was unhurriedly giving his own opinions.
The head of Xuangu on the mountain looked down deeply at the mountain gate at the other end. Putting aside the friction between her and his sect, he really wanted to praise her for her clarity of reason. He even felt that as a prince and emperor, she would definitely be fair and impartial. Not leaning.
But there is always unfairness, unfairness and bias in the world. As the head of Xuan Gu, he must put the rise and fall of Xuan Gu as the first priority. Reporting the Xuan Gu Taoist records to Tai Yi is tantamount to admitting that Xuan Gu is inferior to Tai Yi. , the divine power of princes is greater than that of sectarian Taoism.
How can I bear this!
The leader of Xuan Gu stroked his beard to calm his nerves and made up his mind to send her home in defeat. His second question was to ask her whether the conquests of princes and emperors were for the sake of the common people or for selfish reasons. He also asked her whether the life of the king or the common people was more important. Which one is more important?
But before he let the person into the mountain gate, a powerful force swept across Beizhao Continent, and the voice of Hong Zhong penetrated with murderous intent, "Little Linyao, come out and die!"
That's the pressure of the Return to Void Realm!
Wu Qu’s Return to the Void Enshrinement Sikong Zhao is back!
It’s the true body that’s back! The power is several times greater!
The head of Xuangu looked at the sky and saw a crowd of people in the darkness. His heart suddenly skipped a beat. Wu Qu's army had also arrived? !
Turning around and looking back, I saw that the man in front of the mountain gate had walked away in the air, walked to the green water and empty mountain, and looked at him from a distance.
The heavenly kings felt it, and gazes that penetrated the world of mountains and seas were cast, and they were filled with contemplation.
The monks of Beizhao, who had just experienced a sudden change, were very worried and wanted to hide in the center of the earth. How could the Reverend Master appear? !
There were also nearby monks who were bold enough to look up into the sky, and immediately fell to the ground. They saw clouds stacking up in the sky, and each cloud layer was filled with armored warriors, holding double maces and surrounded by golden light. They were majestic and inviolable. None of them are inferior to the realm of life and death!
A more cursory look shows that there are at least 8,000 people!
The Taoist, who was surrounded by all the true kings and generals, wore a purple gold crown, a yellow patterned robe, and animal face armor. His beard was angry and powerful, and he looked at Zhan Changfeng angrily. He opened his mouth and scolded, "Kill me." Clone, today, I will keep your true body. If you surrender the whole country to me, I might be able to keep your whole body!"
"Wu Qu wanted to capture Shanhai, and you took the lead. Is it reasonable for me to kill you?" Zhan Changfeng said unhurriedly, "In the past, I was the Zhou clan, today I am the Beizhao, and in the future, I will be the same. In the world of mountains and seas, why should the common people deserve to be forced like this by you?"
Sikong Zhao sneered, "Don't make excuses for the common people. Since you are a king, you will kill anyone who doesn't kill you, and surrender if you don't surrender."
"What this venerable person said makes sense. As a king, I should establish laws and teach civilization, protect the people from guilt, and protect the peace of the people. Although I am only the master of one place, there is no one in the mountains and seas to help, so I am the only one. We can bear it.”
Zhan Changfeng glanced at the people in Wu Qu, "Once I return to the void, I have eighteen supernatural powers and thousands of lives and deaths. I dare to ask, if I die in battle, what will happen to the mountains and seas?"
"I, the Ming Dynasty King, am one of the heroes of Fengyun Realm, and should be the Lord of Mountains and Seas." Sikong Zhao looked at her coldly. After not seeing this person for three months, he climbed onto the list of overlords and jumped from the wasteland to Beizhao. His progress was rapid and he could no longer restrain himself. She may be another rare and immortal prince.
Humph, could it be that she discovered the secret of her ancestral veins and used her ancestral veins to improve her luck and cultivation speed?
He examined Zhan Changfeng, unable to see her true identity, and he was even more confused. Such a person was really rare. If there was no support from his family, he would have a great opportunity.
Maybe she knows where her ancestral line lies.
If this is really the case, we have to give her a breath and let her tell the traces of her ancestral lineage.
Just as Sikong Zhao was about to order the arrest of her and the rest of the Day Clan who were not here, the Heavenly Lords and True Lords from the Mountain and Sea Realm arrived one after another.
The Heavenly Lord and the True Lord glared at Zhan Changfeng in a vague way. What this guy just said was amplified. It is estimated that the whole mountain and sea knew that Wu Qu was coming to attack, but their sects had not done anything yet.
Zhan Changfeng took the time to take in their peripheral vision and Lingchi, and said gratefully, "What a shame for the common people. It is a blessing for all the creatures in the mountains and seas to show up."
The head of Xuangu moved his mouth, but didn't say anything after all. Damn you.
Sikong Zhaokou remembered that his clone was besieged by several heavenly kings in the icy wasteland. He glanced at Xun Gong, Yun Zhongzi, Zhenzang, Bai Zhen, and Yao Hong, "I don't need to pursue the past. This battle, This is between Wu Qu and her, please retreat quickly and don’t get involved."
Yun Zhongzi pointed out the fact, "The world of mountains and seas is our root. Wu Qu wants to dominate the mountains and seas. How can it have nothing to do with us?"
"As long as you recognize Wu Qu's status in the world of mountains and seas, you can recruit disciples and pass on the Dharma as before. Wu Qu will not forcibly interfere with you or restrict you. As far as you are concerned, this is just an outside family. The city has changed. master."
Sikong Zhao tried to comfort him first, and his words conveyed the meaning of reconciliation, but Zhan Changfeng said, "Wu Qu didn't forcefully interfere with the restrictions, so he was attacking our Day Clan. The Day Clan at that time was just a Yin Clan, and with these What’s the difference between the sects?”
"Or do you want to say that your Majesty deliberately forced me, the Sun Clan, to become a country and serve as a stepping stone for you?"
..... Sikong Zhao looked at him with deep meaning. This person's question does not seem to be a lie. He really doesn't know his ancestry?
It was impossible to talk about the ancestral lineage at the moment. Sikong Zhao opened his mouth and put the blame away, "The attack on the Day Clan is just Jing Yao's private grudge against the Day Clan and has nothing to do with Wu Qu. Wu Qu just responded to Jing Yao's request for help. ."
He said, "This time, it is a dynasty war. Please retreat and stop interfering. In the near future, Wu Qu will dominate the dynasty of the mountains and seas. It will show everyone a more vibrant and peaceful age, and it will not harm you in the slightest." ."
Leaders from various sects seemed to be thinking about the authenticity of his words and did not respond immediately.
Zhan Changfeng knew that he would answer like this, so he shook his head and smiled, "Everyone, the great disaster that happened to the Day clan sixty years ago was also caused by Jing Yao. At the time, you were either waiting from the other side to watch the fire, or you participated in the partition. Today, it is difficult to Why don’t you have some reflection?”
"As far as I know, after Wu Qu captures other realms, he usually takes those rare great secret realms, great spiritual veins, and great caves for his own use, and some of the magical veins disappear quietly... ." Anyone can guess what Wei Jing said.
But they were unsure of how to deal with an overlord dynasty like Wu Qu, and they looked at each other speechless.
Sikong Zhao smiled with satisfaction. It was his private matter to kill Linyao, and his main business was to capture Shanhai. It would be best to make these sects retreat and not stop Wu Qu. "I promise on behalf of the Ming Dynasty King that Wu Qu will not To change the current structure of the sect, I can also give you a moment to discuss whether to welcome Wu Qu as the leader or to resist stubbornly."
After saying that, he took back his power and closed his eyes to rest.
Yun Zhongzi used a treasure to confine the space where they were standing, and asked, "What do you think?"
One of the sect leaders said, "If the Ming Dynasty King personally made an oath to change the sect structure of the Shanhai Realm, it would be indifferent to us whether the world changes to princes or not."
"That's the reason. The heavenly kings were also deceived by Lin Yao to attack that venerable man. In fact, who is the prince of the mountains and seas has nothing to do with us."
"Of course there is. First of all, the Wuqu Dynasty is not comparable to Donglin Jingyao and the current Taiyi. If it wants to suppress us and compete for our paradise, we can't fight back."
Someone added, "Secondly, Wu Qu's ambitions are unclear. Who knows if he made such verbal promises just to appease us."
...
Zhan Changfeng, who was excluded, also wanted to know what the outcome of their discussion would be, so he waited quietly without saying anything.
An hour flew by, and everyone was red-faced. One group believed that Wu Qu was always an external force, and was determined not to let it come to harm the local power of the mountains and seas. The other group believed that it didn't matter who ruled the world, as long as their own family was not affected. The other group believed that this was all due to Lin. Yao's fault, let Lin Yao and Wu Qu fight first, and then they will decide whether to accept Wu Qu based on the final situation.
One thing was surprisingly consistent. They wanted to know how Wu Qu could guarantee his promise of not moving the sect's structure.
Sikong Zhao thought that the source of his ancestral lineage was in the wasteland, and there was no sect there to intervene. Once the ancestral lineage appeared in the wasteland, the two continents would become a foil, so there was no harm in compromising with them now.
He immediately burned a stick of incense and asked the Ming Dynasty King for an order.
The tall and majestic body of the Ming Dynasty emerged from the white smoke, and his expression was hidden behind nine sapphires. Sikong burned a secret text, and the Ming Dynasty King knew everything without having to say it orally.
He seemed to glance at Zhan Changfeng and said without a doubt, "If the Shanhai Realm is willing to surrender to Wu Qu, not only the structure of the sect, but also the entire structure can remain unchanged. But if you don't want to, you can only do it on your own. I will give Venerable Sikong full authority to handle it." His words on this matter are my king’s words.”
"Your Majesty, please go slowly." Sikong Zhao bowed and the white smoke dissipated. He turned to ask the monks in the mountains and seas, "Have you thought clearly?"
"Please allow us to discuss this again."
They got together again and talked.
Zhan Changfeng stood alone not far from them, still separated from them by them. The clouds were scattered in her eyes, as if there was a sigh coming from the horizon.
At this point, Sikong Zhao also suppressed the anger that his clone was destroyed. He looked at Zhan Changfeng as if he were a twilight prince. He pretended to be serious and said, "People, please follow me. What have you done? Why?" It’s not very popular.”
"It's just weak."
"Did you hear the last sentence of the Lord? If you are willing, Wu Qu will come to fuel your arrogance, and maybe you will be canonized by the Lord as a feudal official of Shanhai."
“You don’t get it by yourself, it’s easy to lose it.”
"That's the bad thing about young people, they are too easy to be stubborn."
The two actually started chatting, and three moments later, Canghai, Lingshan and other sects said goodbye and left, saying they were neutral and would not interfere with the dynasty's affairs. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "Di Shen Tong Jian", follow "Youdu Literature" on WeChat, chat about life, and find close friends~
