Chapter 157: Conflict Resolution Returns to the Song Dynasty
Chang Yunqiu watched Yunlong silently, his eyes flashing. At this time, he really had no idea of continuing the fight with Yunlong. No one has good magic weapons and no one is strong. Even after fighting for a long time, he was defeated one after another. It was meaningless to continue fighting. If you can't win no matter what, you might as well have a good talk.
He is not a fool. If Yunlong doesn't want to become his mortal enemy, why would he? The purpose of cultivation is to achieve immortality. Naturally, the fewer enemies, the better. The hatred and murderous intention of those cloudy dragons earlier have been weakened a lot by the opponent's strong strength, and the rest were also vented in the fight. As long as you adjust your breathing for a period of time in Islam, you should be able to calm down the depression in your heart and make it disappear. As for creating inner demons.
There is no inextricable hatred in the world. Earlier, he hated Yunlong deeply because the other party killed his disciple and couldn't find anywhere to vent his anger; later, the murderous intention was because the other party used a "sneak attack" to capture his disciple. Physically and rudely. But now after the fight, although the opponent's appearance is still so hateful, Chang Yunqiu has to admit that in his heart, he has regarded Yunlong as a person of the same level or even a higher level, a strong man who can endanger his life.
This is the reality of magic teachings that emphasize survival. Only by surviving can you have a chance to complete your own life. Any existence that can endanger your life must be eradicated; if it cannot be eradicated, then you must stay away from it and at least make it irrelevant. . Therefore, after Yunlong showed that he was powerful enough to endanger his life, Chang Yunqiu's murderous intention and resentment towards him quickly weakened. He has decided not to provoke him in the future, at least not to fight with him until his own strength exceeds his. Become mortal enemies.
This situation sounds incredible, but it is not surprising because this is the logic of magic and the inherent instinct of life to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
"I can't tell you the specific situation because I have sworn the blood oath of the inner demon and cannot break it." Chang Yunqiu took a long breath and said. "But as long as it doesn't violate the oath, you can still reveal a few things about 'other' things." After saying this, he looked directly at Yunlong, and the resentment and murderous intention in his heart were buried deep in his heart, unless he met the right person. Otherwise, the opportunity will never explode again and will only slowly fade away with time.
Those who achieve great things must know how to cut off when necessary! If you just care about everything and are narrow-minded, you will never become a great person! Chang Yunqiu has long thought through these principles after living for so many years.
"Huh? No wonder you had to tell me that you swore a blood oath from the inner demon." Yunlong thought with a frown. This heart demon blood oath is an extremely effective oath of the devil. It is an oath sworn to one's own demon heart. If violated, the demon heart will be broken, and the demon will cause death.
"But what he said later was quite interesting... Maybe I will rarely have such a good opportunity in the future. Just ask." Yunlong thought to himself that Chang Yunqiu emphasized "others", which meant that he could learn from other things. The parties can answer these questions as long as they do not involve core secrets. Then he asked Chang Yunqiu: "Why can so many of you get together now when you have been disobedient to each other for many years?"
Chang Yunqiu chuckled and said: "It's not difficult to answer that my demon sect has always respected strength. In the past, several demon sects had similar forces and naturally they were unwilling to accept each other. But now that a more powerful existence has appeared, it will naturally unite us. "
Yunlong nodded. The answer was not beyond his expectation and then asked: "Then who and where does this powerful existence come from? Is it one, several, or a group?"
Chang Yunqiu thought for a moment and shook his head. He didn't answer but pointed at the sky with one finger.
Yunlong frowned slightly. This question seemed to involve an oath, so Chang Yunqiu could only replace it with vague movements. However, his movements had many meanings. Pointing to the sky, the other party was definitely not a human force. Secondly, it was the world. Did it refer to the earthly fairy world or the demon world? ? Does a finger point to a person or an organization?
Yunlong couldn't be sure, so he had to write down these guesses and then asked: "That Heaven-breaking Demonic Array is the Ancient Demonic Array that you haven't seen used in thousands of years. Who set it up this time?"
Chang Yunqiu replied: "If we just talk about the means of setting up the formation, I can set it up in all the five demon sects in the east, west, south, north, and middle. But if we want to prepare the formation diagram and the magic weapon to suppress the formation eyes, only the central demon sect can do this." Big deal!" As he said this, he couldn't help but show admiration in his eyes.
"It seems that the Zhongyāng Demon Sect has a much deeper foundation than the other five demon sects. Chang Yunqiu can be regarded as a person who has seen the world. It is not easy for him to admire him so much. Indeed, the Yuan Mo Ancient Cauldron is an acquired spirit. The top-notch treasures can be used to suppress large formations, and there are old monsters at the level of demons sitting there, which shows that their strength is average. But with such strength, why did the central demon sect in later generations decline like other demon sects? There must have been something during this period Many unspeakable changes." Yunlong got the answer, but it only added more confusion, so he simply put these confusions aside. "Let's explore it more carefully when we have time." He thought to himself.
"Why are you not blocked by the two forces of Buddhism and Taoism in this big move?" Yunlong asked next.
"Haha, in these troubled times, China is in turmoil. There are more people who want to take a share of the pie. There are more than just me, the Demonic Way, Buddhism and Taoism. It's not like the two sects have their own agendas. It's just that they don't act openly and honestly under the guise of a famous sect. Now in the world of cultivation, The situation is a matter of Dao, demon elimination, and overall strength. They are not our opponents. Moreover, they also have their own small calculations, so they reached an agreement with us decades ago. They will not interfere with each other's actions before proceeding until their respective plans are completed. Care about it." Chang Yunqiu, like most demonic cultivators, is very disdainful of the actions of Buddhism and Taoism, and his words are full of belittling and ridiculing words. "And from a certain perspective, our actions may promote their plans, so how can we go back and stop them?"
Yunlong was confused by Chang Yunqiu's words and asked hurriedly: "After all, what is your 'big plan'? How can it be related to the abnormal behavior of Buddhism?"
"..." Chang Yunqiu was silent again for a while, spreading his hands flat with a look of helplessness. It seemed that this issue involved core secrets, so he was still bound by the oath.
"Forget it, if you can ask it so easily, then there's nothing to keep secret." Yunlong didn't expect to get the answer so easily, so he wasn't too disappointed. He asked again: "Your plan can't talk about that Buddha." What is the reason for Tao's abnormal behavior? How many companies are involved in their plan? Will it have an impact on the general trend of the world? "
I never thought that Chang Yunqiu would answer very happily this time: "I have been fighting against the evil way and the righteous way for many years, and I have planted many spies. Although they don't have access to the core secrets, they probably swore the same oath and accepted the restraints like us. But according to the current situation The top sects who learned about the righteous path almost all participated in this operation, except for the Potala Palace, which was busy competing with local religions and could not escape. A few large sects that inherited the ancient traditions, heritage, and profound backgrounds of the great supernatural powers also participated in the operation. Everyone is involved.”
"Moreover," he said mysteriously, "I heard that there were also instructions from the Earthly Immortal Realm and Heavenly Court, and even old guys from those sects who had been in seclusion for a long time appeared. The spies once said that in places such as Kunlun, Emei, Nanhai Sect, and Longhu Mountain, Large-scale sects have seen flowers falling from the sky, golden rainbows streaking across the sky, and then the spiritual energy of the earth being chaotic for an hour before returning to normal. The day after the vision occurred, the masters of these famous sects who were returning to the virtual world announced that they would retreat and Send disciples to join the world one after another to serve the human dynasty, build its capital, sit in the court, etc. Its intentions are probably no smaller than my demonic way."
Yunlong glared at him angrily. This guy talked hesitantly about his own family affairs, but when it came to his opponent, he talked non-stop and talked nonsense, including facts and speculations. It was obvious to him that his intention was to make him curious and explore these famous families. It would be best if the secrets of the big factions come into conflict.
"Your power is considered top-notch in this world. How can you still control this world if you have any plans?" Yunlong couldn't help but laugh at Chang Yunqiu. But just after saying this thought, his doubts were torn apart like lightning, right? Apart from the world, what else is worthy of their plot? But what kind of plan is needed? Yunlong asked Chang Yunqiu with doubts and patience.
Three days later, at the junction of Song Dynasty and Liao Dynasty in Youzhou, a middle-aged Taoist priest in purple robes said goodbye to an old man in black in front of him: "In the past three days, I, the Taoist, and my fellow Taoists have really enjoyed talking to each other. My friend is very knowledgeable and has given me a lot of knowledge. I really want to chat for a few more days." After saying this, he made a look of regret.
The old man in black trembled all over and replied quickly: "Fellow Taoist, don't be polite. I have old arms and legs. Thanks to the 'body' of my old arms and legs, I owe you all my good care of you. I should do what I should do in return. You don't have to worry about it." "I thought to myself: "If I hadn't been willing to talk to you for such a long time in order to redeem my body as a ghost. I didn't expect you to be an eloquent person based on your celestial demeanor. I didn't know that you had been insinuating on your conversations these past few days. I've revealed so many secrets of my demonic ways and I'll never see you again!" After saying that, he quickly said goodbye and turned into a black cloud and flew towards the north at a speed three minutes faster than lightning.
Seeing the old man in black trying to avoid him, the purple-robed Taoist couldn't help but said depressedly: "Am I so terrible? I just sat and discussed Taoism with you for three days, and then gave you my physical body without even asking for any compensation for magic weapons and medicinal materials. How can there be such a good deal in the world to let you go safely? The great elder of the Northern Demon Sect doesn't even have this patience." The purple-robed Taoist priest, who looked down upon the old man in black and fled, said to himself: "This time I didn't go out in vain. I gained a lot. I didn't expect that the two sects of magic and Buddhism have such ambitions. No wonder they have to take advantage of the chaos in the world before they dare to act. If there were such convenient conditions in the peaceful years. Alas, they were out in the blink of an eye. After four or five days, I wonder how Kuang Yin is doing and how he is preparing for Jianguo's ascension to the throne. As a master, I want to go back and have a look." After saying that, he turned into a stream of light and flew towards Taiyuan.
These two people are naturally Yunlong and Chang Yunqiu who were fighting three days ago. The two of them have begun to implement the agreement since they reached the "truce agreement". Yunlong asked indirect questions about the "big plan" of the devil, but Chang Yunqiu was bound by the oath and could not answer the questions directly and was not cooperative enough. So Yunlong spent a whole day and spent a lot of effort to ask the questions he wanted to ask. After asking most of the answers, Chang Yunqiu shook his head and only occasionally made gestures. Only when it involved some less confidential information, he would give a few simple answers.
After answering the questions, Chang Yunqiu wanted Yunlong to return his body as agreed, but Yunlong said, "Elder Chang's body is so precious. It is more valuable than five magic weapons. How can some vague answers be compared to mine?" I don’t need magical elixirs. I just need fellow Taoist to return some other valuable questions to me. Once they are worth enough to your body, I will return them to you." Chang Yunqiu tried to be smart but ended up shooting himself in the foot. Being pushed back by Yunlong, he couldn't save his face and regretted it, so he answered Yunlong's other questions honestly. This question lasted three days.
During this period, Yunlong asked Chang Yunqiu about many things from ancient secrets, the human world, the immortal world, and even the demon world. Most of his answers exceeded Yunlong's expectations; he then asked him about the techniques, inheritances, and masters of various sects. Chang Yunqiu was also able to collect all kinds of information about power, power, etc. one by one, which made Yunlong feel unparalleled.
After all, Yunlong was born in Baiding. He worked hard to achieve his current career and has only been around for a few hundred years. Although he has a lot of memories of the Holy Spirit Tree, the Holy Spirit Tree only relied on the "Original Induction Technique" to learn a lot of middle and low-level information and skills. The real secrets and profound techniques are few in comparison. On the contrary, Yunqiu, who was born in the Northern Demon Cult, is a top sect with a history of ten thousand years and has emerged since the Conferring God War. It has great deficiencies in terms of foundation, manpower, and power. Only the combat power of masters and magic weapons and medicinal materials can On a par with each other - this is also thanks to the Holy Spirit Tree's family background and the wonder of the Dragon Ball world.
It was only now that he learned that there are so many masters in the world: the leader and elder of each major cultivation sect must be masters of the Void Return Stage, and there is at least one heavenly master in the important place of the mountain gate! Those top sects even exaggerate that half of the elders are masters of the Void Return stage, and there are more than two heavenly masters in the sects, and there are at least two acquired spiritual treasures in the mountain sects that can be used as magic weapons to subdue the enemy. The power remains in the world for thousands of years. According to Chang Yunqiu's guess, there may even be people at the level of innate spiritual treasures and golden immortals in ancient sects like Kunlun.
Moreover, the connection between the human world and the world is not completely cut off. If you spend a communication token left by a heavenly master before ascension, you can have a short call with the senior. This also proves that the famous sect can block the enemy in the world. Not a lie.
Since ancient times, after the Conferred Gods War, there have been countless large and small sects in the world, but most of them have gone from prosperity to decline and are submerged in the dust of history. However, the only major sects and top forces that have stood in the Middle-earth China for thousands of years are Kunlun, Emei, Nanhai, Kongtong, Tian The Shidao, the Potala Palace, the five evil sects of the East, West, South, North, and Central Ten Thousand Demons Alliance and the ancient remnants of Shiwan Mountain are just thirteen forces. It also represents the top combat power of China's Middle-Earth, safeguarding the fertile land of Middle-Earth, the center of the world, deterring all surrounding foreign enemies, and objectively protecting the stability of Middle-Earth.
The more he learned about the strength of the Middle-earth sects and the ambitions of Buddhism, Taoism, and demons, the more Yunlong was shocked, and the more he realized how overestimating his previous ideas were. At the same time, he also became more confused about what happened to the tragic situation in the world in later generations. ? Could it be that later practitioners would lament that "the end of the Dharma era is coming"?
Yunlong and Chang Yunqiu have communicated more and have a certain understanding of each other. They have similar cultivation levels and similar identities, and they can also communicate with each other in their understanding of Taoism. Therefore, after letting go of their prejudices and chatting for three days, they actually felt a sense of sympathy for each other. The feeling can be regarded as "no fight, no acquaintance". Of course, this kind of friendship is based on the strength of both parties. If not for Yunlong's repeated defeats, Chang Yunqiu would not be able to gain the respect of the other party.
Of course, Chang Yunqiu also admired Yunlong's cultivation and knowledge. In his opinion, it was very remarkable that such a cultivator from a casual cultivating background could achieve such achievements today. This person must be a genius and have great luck. It won't hurt to fellowship with it. He once lamented: "With you in the Song Dynasty, it would be very difficult for those kids in the Liao Kingdom to invade the south. It would be better to expand northward and conquer those barbarians. Recently, I heard that there are some evil gods spreading their beliefs. Some old people in the religion should also move." If you move, someone will be knocking on your door." The Northern Demon Cult occupies the largest territory and naturally receives the most provocations. Beating and killing are commonplace, which is why it is so ferocious.
Yunlong was naturally happy that the Northern Demon Sect would not go south to invade. Before the Great Song Dynasty unified the south, it was not possible for the Northern Expedition. It would be best for everyone to live in peace with each other.
This emergency incident finally achieved a successful outcome.
(There are a lot of thoughts about the human heart that I don’t like to express, so I expressed them in the novel. If you can’t control your heart in cultivation, then it’s not a correct cultivation. It’s impossible for a person to have everything go smoothly in his life, and he will inevitably end up with irrepayable karma. But although the karma is wrong, Even if there are contradictions, they can be reconciled under certain conditions. This is what this piece expresses. What follows is a supplement to the person’s strength, which can be regarded as digging a big hole.)
