The sun and the moon pass by, the clouds gather and disperse, everything in the world ages and is reborn, prospers and declines, but no matter how vigorous things are, in the eyes of the quasi-sage in the sky, they are as small as dust. There are no two major celestial dynasties that affect their minds. Hundreds and thousands of years are like a snap of the fingers. Even the so-called path to the source of evil can only be glimpsed by them.
But for some people, these hundreds and thousands of years have been long enough and hard enough.
That day, a silent figure came down from the starship and looked around the unfamiliar World Gate City. Is this the Great World of Wind and Cloud?
As he took a step forward, the surrounding monks took a step back and looked at this outsider in surprise. Because he was dressed in white and blue robes, but his exposed skin was covered with light blue totems. He was obviously a Shinto monk.
Although with the establishment of Wuling Mountain, the way of shamanism and natural totems have re-entered the eyes of all living beings, their spiritual threshold ratio is extremely high, requiring the ability to listen to the words of heaven and earth and all things, making it impossible for all people to practice it. In addition, the rarity of natural totems and Wuling Mountain Without a wide range of disciples, such monks are rare even in the big world.
However, everyone who has seen them thinks that these "listeners" are detached from the world but rooted in the world. They are unpredictable and do not dare to offend easily.
However, passers-by only glanced at it for a moment. They were still going where they should go, and he walked across the ground where the starship was docked in a hurry.
"Fellow Taoist, are you from Wuling Mountain?" A short-bearded old man under a pavilion by the road suddenly asked, with a kind look on his face.
He stood still, with lazy and tired features on his face, like a cloud lying high in the sky, safe and not powerful, but also out of reach, "I'm looking for it."
The short-bearded old man smiled and said, "You already have the inheritance of the Spring Totem, what else do you want to do with it?"
"Totems know nature, shamans know heaven and earth, gods know the universe, there is no end."
"I didn't expect fellow Taoist to have such great ambitions, but it's a pity that you came a step too late."
"..." There was an expected helplessness in his eyes, and he asked, "Fellow Taoist, can you explain in detail?"
"Come on, come on, you sit down first." The old man with a short beard looked amused, "You don't seem to be surprised either."
"This journey has been full of twists and turns. I have traveled nearly nine hundred years from the great realm of Yunshan to Fengyun."
The short-bearded old man sighed. Although the Chongmo Realm has not been completely integrated into the Taiyi Territory, the route is accessible. It can be reached in ten years by the slowest starship. He must be unlucky. If not, Wu Lingshan Are you deliberately testing Him?
The old man laughed and did not interfere. He said truthfully, "Wuling Mountain has a reputation but not a trace. Most monks don't know that it stands in the world of wind and cloud. Since you can find it, you must have a certain fate, but something happened to Youtian a few days ago." Due to unexpected events, all the shamans and totem masters in Wuling Mountain have gone to support, and there are probably only a few apprentices in the mountain."
"Youtian?"
"Yes, you haven't returned to the void yet, so you can't pass through the space barrier, so I'm afraid you won't be able to go." The old man began to kidnap people bluntly, "If you want to go, you might as well join the War Palace, apply to enter the Youtian battlefield, and go on the void battleship. The mountain chief of Wuling Mountain is the Great Priest Tai, and she is also one of the commanders of Youtian. You will always have a chance to meet her."
He thought that he was just a true king with supernatural powers, but he seemed to be very familiar with Taiyi Imperial Court. He asked suspiciously, "May I ask your name?"
"It's not worth mentioning. He's just a teacher who retired from old age and returned to his hometown." The old man stood up, "The starship to pick me up is here. Let's go."
"Wait a moment." He condensed a green seed from his fingertips and gave it to the old man, "Thank you for showing me the way. Have a safe journey."
The old man knew that some practitioners care about cause and effect and adhere to the principle of fairness, so he did not shirk and accepted it naturally. The practitioner once again embarked on a long journey of seeking the Tao.
"After all, there are talents from generation to generation." The old man boarded the ship in a good mood, and the soldiers greeted him respectfully, "Dean Bai, are you going back to the Shanhai Realm, or directly to the Xiaoli Realm?"
"Let's go straight." Bai Hen walked into the cabin with his hands behind his hands, and all the soldiers and generals along the way saluted.
He originally became the vice-president of the Shanhai Military Academy, and was later transferred to the Fengyun Military Academy as the president. Every soldier who came from the Military Academy knew him. He felt it was worth it to reach this level in his life.
Now that the deadline is approaching, he has just relieved his burden and is preparing to return to his place of origin to live some leisurely days. After all, he is still the longest-lived among the old friends.
A hundred years ago, Lu Yishan, then the vice president of the Shanhai Military Academy, died in solitary confinement. This guy was an astrologist, and he was a short-lived ghost. He could advance to supernatural powers and lived for two thousand years. Ten years ago, when Wen Chen, who was the dean of Shanhai Military Academy, also passed away. He was drinking with him the day before his death, which was quite peaceful.
Thinking of his old friend, Bai Hen couldn't help but happily drink three glasses of wine, "My life is better and I can go longer than you all."
Bang, the starship suddenly shook, as if it was hit by something. Bai Hen's eyes twisted, he put down the wine cup, shook off the wine stains from the tiger's mouth, and looked at the cabin window. Unknown to him, the empty scenery had been replaced by thick darkness.
At this moment, the cabin collapsed, and the darkness spread in, like a lock or a net, not sparing a living creature. Anyone who touched it would instantly fall into a drowsy state, unable to resist.
"Who dares to act so arrogantly in the Taiyi Realm!" Bai Hen offered his precious phantom to attack, but it seemed like he was attacking a shadow. He couldn't force it back and could only watch them surround it.
Suddenly, the seed in his arms broke and sprouted, and countless vines drew out the divine light and wrapped the hull. When the white marks adapted to the shining light, the darkness receded like a tide.
The captain broke into the door in panic, "Lao Bai, are you okay?"
"It's okay, but who did you see making a sneak attack?"
"I haven't seen him. He seems to have escaped after being hit. I have contacted the patrol ship to track him down." The captain looked at the green vines all over the room and felt very lucky. He realized that the blow was aimed at this cabin. Shi was frightened to death, "The ship can't leave. A warship will come to pick you up soon."
Bai Hen nodded. This was not a battleship, but its defense was at the void-returning level. The opponent who could break through the hull and almost kill him must be someone like the Venerable.
I don’t know why he came to attack a true king.
Touching the vines that were about to collapse, Bai Hen felt that the world was unpredictable. If it hadn't been for this seed, he would have had no hope of even going back to retire.
The battleship brought him back to the mountains and seas. In this world, apart from the Imperial Court, there is no safer place than the mountains and seas.
Bai Hen lived in Shanhaizhan Palace for some days. Soon, he opened the door and welcomed Ji Ancestor. He was extremely surprised. Although he was an old minister, he could make an exception and participate in some grand events in the God's Court as a true king. However, this was the first time. Face to face this venerable man who holds the title of Heavenly Master and is responsible for admonishing.
"No need to be polite." Xiang Jixu asked, and said warmly, "Dean Bai is frightened. I have nothing else to do, so I came here to see you."
"But the attack has its consequences."
"There are always people in this world who are full and have nothing to do. You don't have to worry about it." Xiang Ji held a Heavenly Official Seal and said in a serious tone, "White marks."
"My minister is here." This time Bai Hen lifted up his robe and knelt down firmly.
"With your meritorious deeds, you can be canonized as a god after your death. Your Majesty specially makes you the world god of Xiaoli Realm to protect the safety of the world. Are you willing?"
"I'm afraid." Bai Hen refused without thinking. How much merit does he have, how can he be worthy of such a big responsibility? He is not afraid of anything, but he is afraid that His Majesty will think of the past and give him favors, which will damage the fairness.
Xiang Ji said, "Don't be too busy saying no. Your Majesty has always intended to establish a system of gods. One is to reward those with great merit in the world, the other is to place the heroic spirits who have sacrificed or paid a lot for the imperial court, and the third is to protect the heaven and earth. And this All standards are merit. You have been diligent and tireless in educating people for the past two thousand years, and have accumulated 100 million merits. This calamity is over, and you have no worries. At the same time, your mind is firm and in line with heavenly virtue. You can be listed after your death. The position of the God of the Small Realm.”
"You must have heard it. Only when you die with your soul intact and your merits complete can you have the opportunity to hold the official seal of heaven and become a high-ranking god. However, this does not mean that you can reach heaven in one step. You still need to use the official seal of heaven, the divine organ of heaven and earth. You must establish a connection between you and re-cultivate a path of merit that maintains the order of heaven and earth. If you make a mistake, heaven and earth will destroy you."
"Why should I be afraid of the difficulty of the road?" Bai Hen asked with mixed joy and sorrow, "If General Taiyi dies safely, will he have the chance to become a god?"
"That's not entirely true." There is a big secret between life and death. If the true spirit is not strong, it will not help if the secret method of reincarnation or the assistance of the noble phantom is obtained. Therefore, the Imperial Court stipulates that for those who return to the void and above, the Imperial Court will assist in reincarnation. For those weak heroic spirits, it provides a way to cultivate meritorious bodies and achieve spiritual status.
Xiang Ji did not explain in detail, only said, "I understand what you want to ask. Dean Lu Yishan and Vice Dean Wen Chen, who were at the same time as you, have always been in that position and have many merits, but Lu Yishan is an astrologer. , the time has come for the purpose of spying on the secrets of heaven. Even if he wants to stay, he can't. Wen Chen is a little short of 100 million, but he has a lot of merit. He can get a lower god status when he dies. What is regrettable is that, His end of life was accompanied by the disintegration of his Tao seed and soul."
White marks are in great mourning. It is normal for the Tao seeds and Yuanshen to collapse after death. This is called the Tao disappearing after the body dies and the Tao returns to heaven. But the collapse before death is called abandoning the Tao. He has given up on cultivating the Tao himself, and neither the gods nor the Buddha can save him. return.
Recalling that Wen Chen joked with him when he was drinking, "I have been rich in opportunities in my life, and I have witnessed the laws of heaven and earth twice, but I still can't understand the spiritual guide, which shows that my talent is limited."
Why didn't he realize at that time that he was desperate for Tao?
The white marks concealed his heavy heart, and he held up the Heavenly Official Seal, "I am willing to protect Xiaoli Realm."
"That's good. After you die, the appointment documents will be in your hands. I hope you will soon understand the order of heaven and earth and attain the great road."
Xiang Ji encouraged him a few words, and then left with a slightly cold look on his face. Bai Hen's attack was actually not an exception.
Taiyi returned the government to the people and occupied the imperial court. Although there were guardian envoys stationed in all the large and medium realms, and gods were sealed in the small realms, he only protected the heaven and earth and did not interfere with the changes in the world. His supervision of the common people was extremely weak. Practitioners who are aware of the evil sources hidden in Xuantian and Zhutian have begun to emerge.
And they seemed to intend to anger Taiyi and singled out the founding fathers of Taiyi for action.
The founding fathers include not only the venerable Tianjun who is currently in the imperial court, but also academy gentlemen like Bai Hen, retired soldiers, and decentralized heavenly officials!
Thinking about the evil source of power in Youtian, he had reason to believe that these evil source practitioners had great intentions.
