I was moved to hear Daoyou Shen’s heartfelt words without hesitation.
The leader of Tongtian Cult could only be moved in his eyes. He first encountered a rift between his brothers, and then was oppressed by the Four Saints. At this moment, the Jie Cult was probably in a state of crisis.
Even the leader of Tongtian Cult is not very sure about the upcoming Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, and as a smart person in the world, Fellow Daoist Shen naturally understands the danger of this final battle.
But he did not refuse, and still chose to join Jiejiao without hesitation.
There was obviously a better option in the West, and even if you could save your life by hiding in the Bajing Palace, you still chose to agree.
Such a brave and fearless righteous gentleman cannot do anything to risk his life to help.
Therefore, Master Tongtian was very moved by this, and he secretly made up his mind that even if he was an enemy of all the immortals in the world, he would definitely protect the safety of Fellow Daoist Shen.
Fellow Taoist, you are both capable and virtuous, you are truly my best friend!
"I am grateful for what I have encountered, and I have never given up. It is a blessing from heaven to have the help of my Taoist friends. I am willing to lead the great religion with you and share the honor!" Tongtian Cult Leader said with incomparable seriousness.
After experiencing the betrayal between Yuanshi Tianzun and Laojun, Master Tongtian's favorability towards Doctor Shen skyrocketed.
Since the Chairman...
No, it was the Tongtian Cult Leader who invited him to join the Jie Cult and gave him a dead end. A smile finally appeared on Shen Xin's face, and for some reason, the person in front of him suddenly seemed so pleasing to his eyes.
No matter what, if you are a brother, you are here to trick me. I must participate in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
"Fellow Taoist Tongtian, you are so polite. Shen Xin joined Jiejiao not for any rights, let alone glory. Those things are just a passing thought to me."
"Of course I understand that my fellow Taoist is an extraordinary person, and is very different from the Yuanshi Tianzun. Fellow Taoist, please take a seat." Tongtian Cult Master waved his hand, and a man with the same appearance as himself suddenly appeared next to him. throne.
Shen Xin was not polite, but slowly stepped forward, and then asked: "Since fellow Taoist is going to fight the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation with Yuanshi Tianzun again, I wonder if there are any other preparations besides the Six Soul Flags?"
Shen Xin was ready to get to know the leader of Tongtian Cult, otherwise he would be scared to death if a treasure he didn't know suddenly appeared.
This is called stability and being prepared!
"This... doesn't exist for the time being..."
"But I will set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation together with my disciples. This formation..."
Leader Tongtian was stunned when asked by Shen Xin. He was just so angry that he lost his mind before. He just wanted the Six Soul Flags and Ten Thousand Immortals Formation to fight Yuanshi Tianzun again, regain his face, and take revenge. He didn't even think about it. Too much.
Now after thinking about it carefully, I gradually feel a little less confident.
Well, Shen Xin just felt that it would be unreasonable for Tongtian Cult Leader to remain defeated.
Anyone who has read "The Romance of the Gods" knows that "Fengshen Yanyi" is not so much a battle between Shang and Zhou Dynasties, but a battle between two religions.
And the final outcome also ended with Jie Jiao's disastrous defeat.
However, after reading the book, everyone has a question, that is, the Jiejiao itself, including the leader Tongtian, everyone is very strong, but why did they lose to the Chanjiao in the end?
There are many reasons, and many can be listed at once. The most important one is that the leader of Tongtian is too straightforward and doesn't really have much scheming.
Faced with Yuanshi Tianzun's step-by-step tests, even if Guangchengzi sent Jinxiaguan Sanjie to Biyou Palace, or he was afraid of leaving his grandson and killed Yu Yuan who was given the Heart-piercing Lock by Tongtian, he actually still abided by the rules of becoming a god. , thinking that a disciple should be listed on the list because he does not respect his teacher's orders.
This reaction speed should not be seen in a sage who has lived for tens of millions of years and is very resourceful.
If you look at the other saints, whether it is Yuanshi, Zhunti, or Laojun, which one has not already had a plan or even started the layout thousands of years ago.
Only he realized later, even until he defeated the Four Saints by himself, causing the Immortal Killing Formation to be broken.
He still believed that he had extraordinary strength and could defeat the Four Saints without resorting to external forces. He also did not learn from experience and lessons, and did not actively seek allies, which made his final defeat in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation another big defeat.
Even if the Tongtian leader can think carefully and actively look for allies, or use some counterintuitive tactics to disrupt the trust between the saints, at least the West will stop interfering. It is still better than fighting alone against the four saints. .
Even if you talk about cooperation with Haotian God and Yaochi Golden Mother to make heaven neutral, you can at least gain some righteousness.
You must know that when the list of gods was signed, God Haotian originally wanted the twelve immortals to become his ministers. The twelve golden immortals were proud and unwilling, so they were the first to become gods.
However, Master Tongtian always thought about his friendship with Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi, and did not want to stand on the opposite side of the two senior brothers. He only stood up at the last resort because he did not want to support Jiejiao, who was about to fall. building.
Shen Xin felt that he had fallen into a situation that even gods could not save.
But having said that, he still liked this dangerous situation.
"The difficulty of ambition is not to defeat others, but to defeat oneself. Fellow Taoist, don't be discouraged. No matter the victory or defeat of Ten Thousand Immortals, Shen Xin will definitely not disappoint the people of the world."
Before he finished speaking, white light appeared on Shen Xin's body, and his luck resonated.
…
Shen Xin waved his hand, okay, he didn't care, because the power of luck would always cause convulsions a few times a month, and it didn't matter at all.
Ignore it.
At this moment, Tongtian Cult Leader fell into deep contemplation because of Shen Xin's words. He seemed to be thinking about something and even forgot about the thousands of Jie Cult disciples waiting outside the palace.
After a long while, Master Tongtian slowly spoke, and he asked in an extremely serious tone: "As the saying goes, the authorities are confused, but those on the outside know clearly. Although I am in charge of the great religion, I have always focused on cultivation and have never considered other things."
"Now that I have encountered setbacks, my Taoist friends have suddenly woken up and discovered that there are many shortcomings in the religion today. I wonder if I can give you some advice?"
Guidance?
When Shen Xin heard what Master Tongtian said, he immediately fell into deep thought.
As Master Tongtian said, the disadvantages of interception are huge, but what's the use of saying it yourself? Is it possible to bring the dead back to life? Shen Xin was a little confused.
"Fellow Taoist, please tell me directly, but you don't have to show any sympathy to me!" The leader of Tongtian Cult looked solemn and his expression was extremely serious.
"Okay, this is what you asked me to say." Shen Xin thought for a while, if he said it more sharply, it would be great news in case the leader of Tongtian Cult was angry with him.
So he cleared his mouth, stretched out his finger, and said.
"Jie Jiao is responsible for today's disaster, and it's none other than you, but it's all because of you."
"First, he is arrogant and arrogant. He thinks he is invincible with the Zhuxian Sword Formation and despises others. Although the Zhuxian Sword Formation is strong, it cannot escape the hands of the Four Saints."
Shen Xin raised his eyes and looked at the Tongtian Cult Leader, it was good, his color had changed a bit.
After I continued to scold him, Shen Xin continued to raise his second finger:
"Second, he doesn't know people well and is good at listening to flattery. He is easily deceived by the villain's words."
Although Master Tongtian is a good teacher who teaches without distinction, he is by no means a person who knows everything and understands people well.
Chang'er Dingguangxian, as the seven immortals who serve as the attendants of Tongtian Cult, should always be by Tongtian's side, but Tongtian Cult didn't find that he had any intention of rebellion. In the end, the Six Soul Banner was stolen by Chang'er Dingguangxian, resulting in Jie Jiao was defeated miserably in the battle of Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
Tongtian Cult Leader's knowledge of people is unknown. Long-eared Dingguang Immortal must be a sweet-hearted swordsman who is good at defeating those who want to flatter him, otherwise he would not be trusted by Tongtian Cult Leader so much.
"Third, indecisiveness."
It was obvious that the Yuanshi Tianzun ignored the brotherhood, repeatedly persecuted, and even bullied the younger ones, but the leader of Tongtian still thought about the matter of the list of gods and was slow to make a decision.
If Tongtian Cult Leader stood up when Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi took action against the juniors, accused and stopped Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun from openly attacking the juniors regardless of their status, then a large part of Jiejiao's disciples would have survived, and Jiejiao would have survived in the Battle of the Gods Winning may not lead to a complete defeat.
"Fourth, the discipline is not strict, and the quality of the disciples is uneven. There are those who practice the righteous way, and naturally there are those who practice the evil way."
To tell the truth, there is nothing wrong with teaching without distinction and giving a glimmer of life to all living beings in the world. It is a great merit. Otherwise, Tongtian Cult Master would not have become a saint through this.
However, there are huge problems with his approach to recruiting and educating disciples.
It is precisely because there are so many disciples of Jie Jiao that countless people are just trying to make up for their numbers. Even if they only hear one sermon from a saint, they can form gangs and use the reputation of Jie Jiao to run rampant in the three realms.
The other immortals were so angry that they dared not speak out.
With such behavior, how can Jiejiao's reputation be good and how can it not arouse resentment from others.
After listening to Shen Xin's silence for a moment, Master Tongtian just sat there and then sighed.
"It seems that the current defeat of Jiejiao is indeed my fault as the headmaster."
Loyalty is offending to the ears! Loyalty is offending to the ears!
If Fellow Daoist Shen hadn't told what happened today, he might still be complacent and arrogantly ignoring the immortals of the three realms.
He thought that tens of thousands of immortals from the Jiejiao religion would come to court, but little did he know that his destruction was right in front of him.
The leader of Tongtian Cult looked ahead and sighed repeatedly, if only Daoist Shen had joined our Jie Cult earlier, there would be no misfortune today.
"Huh?" Shen Xin did not expect that the leader of Tongtian Cult would admit his mistake. He thought that the other party would become angry because he did not care about the saint's face.
But it's a pity that Master Tongtian woke up a little late and missed the best opportunity.
Facing Yuanshi Tianzun and the siege of the Second Saint of the West, Jiejiao was already a piece of meat on the chopping block, with no chance of turning around.
Some things are nothing to regret.
Shen Xin also sighed and shook his head.
Leader Tongtian understood Shen Xin's helplessness very well, and he didn't know the same. The Jiejiao had been in trouble, especially under his own leadership, it had reached its current situation.
But as a saint, the leader of Tongtian Cult has a very firm mind. He firmly believes that the Great Dao is fifty and the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and he has escaped one of them; and the true meaning of Dao lies in this escaped one.
The forty-nine paths of Tianyan, although these forty-nine paths are complete, they all have limitations, and they cannot reach the true great path in a lifetime; only this escaped one is the true vitality of the monks, although It is incomplete, but precisely because it is incomplete, it contains opportunities;
What Jiejiao has to do is to intercept this glimmer of vitality and achieve the true path.
The leader of Tongtian Cult had a vague realization, with expectation in his eyes as he murmured to himself: "Perhaps Fellow Daoist Shen is the glimmer of hope for the Jie Cult?"
Yes, it must be, otherwise why would he choose to join us at the most critical moment of our religion?
Thinking of this, Tongtian Cult Leader suddenly burst into laughter, took Shen Xin's hand and said without hesitation: "In such a crisis, fellow Taoist, the deputy cult leader, must not be lazy, and should share the worries with Pindao."
】
"This important task of rectifying the congregation and practicing the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation must be done by you."
Leader Tongtian thought very simply. Since he couldn't manage it well, it would be better to hand over Jie Jiao to Shen Daoyou early and let him manage Jie Jiao's disciples, while he would find a way to deal with Yuanshi Tianzun.
It seems that the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and the Six Soul Flags are not enough, and he should make some changes.
Well, practicing the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation is a matter of life and death for me. Although the performance of this formation in the original plot is not as good as that of the Zhuxian Formation, it suppresses the luck of Jie Jiao after all. It is good to understand it early, so as not to be afraid of overturning.
Of course, the most important point is that Shen Xin can take this opportunity to act arbitrarily and arrange himself into a formation where death is inevitable.
He had already thought about it, specifically looking for the kind of rubbish formations set up by third- and fourth-generation disciples, preferably those who had not yet achieved immortality, to make up for the numbers, and then be easily broken by others.
Hahaha, this time I will take a six by myself!
17 cards, can you beat me? Can you kill me instantly?
This is simply a dead end and cannot be more stable.
And just when Shen Xin was thinking about how to arbitrarily send himself to death in the future, the leader of Tongtian Cult had already called the disciples outside the hall to come in.
And when they saw Dr. Shen sitting in the same position as his teacher, especially when the leader of Tongtian announced that he would take over the power of interception, everyone was immediately shocked, and many even looked in disbelief.
Of course, although everyone was shocked, no one dared to question it in front of Master Tongtian. They all consciously bowed and fell to the ground. Even the eldest disciple Duobao Daoist shouted loudly:
"Disciple pays homage to the teacher. May the teacher's longevity be endless and the Tao be equal to the sky."
Forget it if the Tao and Heaven are equal, the holy life has no boundaries? Are you sure you're not cursing me?
Looking at the prostrate disciples below, Shen Xinxin cursed. Although he didn't appreciate it, he still had to show off, so he held his hands up and said loudly.
"Disciples, please rise."
After Shen Xin finished speaking, all the immortals from the Jiejiao Cult raised their heads one after another, their expressions were colorful, like a dye vat, each one different.
First of all, the eldest disciple, Taoist Duobao, although his expression remained unchanged and looked like he was just letting things go, Shen Xin could clearly see that the corners of his mouth were trembling.
As for the remaining three true disciples, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, the Holy Mother of the Turtle Spirit, and the Holy Mother of Wudang, their expressions were slightly smiling and their bodies were very respectful. Although they could not understand the thoughts of the leader of Tongtian, they did not have any obvious disgust.
Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao, Kong Xuan, Shi Tianjun and others who were already good friends with Shen Xin opened their mouths and widened their eyes, obviously in disbelief.
Obviously a few days ago, we were still fellow Taoists. How come not long ago, you became the leader and teacher? Could this also be cheating? It's incredible.
The most shocked one was Bixiao among the three Xiaos. The little girl was so anxious that she almost cried. She kept pestering her two sisters and asked anxiously:
"Sister, what should I do? What should I do? If I like Dr. Shen now, does that mean I am deceiving my master and destroying my ancestor?"
This matter was obviously beyond her understanding, and her CPU was almost burning.
But no matter how anxious Bixiao was, how could anyone else answer her at this moment, because even Yunxiao and Qiongxiao's eyes were full of questions.
However, among the many disciples of Jiejiao, there are some who have kind expressions, and naturally there are also those who are malicious.
For example, the long-eared Dingguang Immortal was clenched in his hands at this moment, with his head lowered and looking coldly at the ground, his eyes flashing...
