Chapter 160 The Ceremony Ends
Chapter 160 The Ceremony Ends
I saw Buddhism showing off like this. The rest of the Taoists couldn't help but hum. Although they both belong to the right path, they have different doctrines and have entangled interests with each other. Therefore, the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has been deeply engraved in the hearts of the disciples of Buddhism and Taoism since ancient times. At this moment, seeing that the Buddhist alliance actually created such a grand scene and suppressed the Taoist auspiciousness, it was natural to be dissatisfied.
"Haha, Buddhism is really mysterious. But at this time, the world is undecided and we still need to fight on the battlefield. Naturally, we can't let this peaceful meaning weaken our spirit. I will also make a fool of myself." These were the words of the leader of the Tianjian Sect. He started to cast the spell as soon as he finished speaking. I saw a flash of white light on the horizon in the distance, followed by a rumbling sound of thunder, followed by a series of huge sword lights coming straight from the sky and the earth. The sword light was all red and white, surrounded by thunder and lightning, just like a heavenly sword descending into the world and thrusting straight into the sky, exuding an unstoppable and hearty sword intent that soared to the sky.
Even so. But it cannot suppress the "auspicious" sound made by the joint efforts of Buddhism and Buddhism. When Xiang Tiannan saw this, he couldn't help but secretly praise: "The master of the Tianjian Sect, who is so powerful that it seems to be able to cut the sky and split the earth, is one of the 'One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Techniques'. He has indeed understood the essence of the way of swordsmanship. But the way of sword cultivation Although it is powerful and indestructible, it relies on a sharp energy. If it encounters too much obstacle, its power will be greatly reduced. The Buddhist sword is indeed extraordinary. It is not only tough and thick, but also magical and peaceful. It can also resolve the violent energy in the sword. If it can be combined with it The combination of sword cultivation skills will definitely complement each other." Xiang Tiannan didn't know that it was his emotion at this time and his subsequent implementation that established the Shushan Sword Sect's future dual cultivation system of Buddhism and Taoism.
But now that the Shushan Sword Sect belongs to the Taoist sect, the name of the Taiqing lineage cannot be weakened, so it naturally sides with the Taoist school. I saw that the Buddha's light in the sky became more and more prosperous, suppressing the giant sword, Tai Chi diagram, and celestial stars until they gradually dimmed. The Buddha's light was about to occupy the entire space. But suddenly a small aura flying sword appeared in the center of the sky and then vibrated rapidly. Every time it vibrated, it would differentiate into a sword light, and in just a moment, it would differentiate into ten thousand sword lights.
These sword lights flew towards the transformed Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Eight Heavenly Dragons, and Golden Arhats, penetrating the protective Buddha light but not destroying the illusion. Instead, the sword light flew under them and bloomed again. Layers upon layers of sword energy actually turned into lotus platforms of sword energy, which complemented the fantasy and made it even more sacred. Xiang Tiannan wanted to win favor for the Taoist sect, but he also wanted to do well to the Buddhist sect, so he used such a tricky method to avoid offending both parties.
The Maoshan sect is famous for its talismans and corpse refining techniques, but it does not have many gorgeous spells, so it can only use some ordinary five-element spells to transform them into powerful but insubstantial golden knives, giant trees, floods, sky fires, and meteorites that fall from the sky to increase the power of the sect. . Fortunately, both Buddhism and Taoism have not used real fire yet. They only focus on illusions and do not use spells to fight. They also have a tacit understanding and do not use magic weapons to limit the confrontation to a situation where they will not hurt anyone. The fight is evenly matched. Therefore, although they fought fiercely, the people below just watched it as a show of excitement and did not feel scared. Instead, they thought it was auspiciousness coming from heaven. Blessings from the gods.
Yunlong felt dumbfounded for a moment when he saw that they had forgotten that their original intention was to display auspiciousness, but due to their differences in Buddhism and Taoism, they fought against each other and finally evolved into the current situation. But his identity is just an overseas monk and does not belong to the mainstream of Buddhism and Taoism. No matter which side he helps, the balance will be upset. So Yunlong thought about it and still felt that if the two of them didn't help each other, they could only intervene in the middle to separate them. Otherwise, if the fight continued, I didn't know how far it would develop.
Fortunately, Yunlong's cultivation level was high enough, and his Yuanshen was more powerful than any other master present. He was absolutely sure that he could separate them. He first secretly transmitted a message to a person and then began to brew a spell. With this person's cooperation, it would be easier for him to create a shocking effect and separate the two parties.
At this time, Taiyuan City has become a Buddhist wonderland, but the sky is full of shining stars, sword energy flying across the sky, the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the rays of Tai Chi Yin and Yang are constantly blooming. The principles of evolution, creation and restraint are competing against each other to maintain a delicate balance. But a person who was supposed to be today's protagonist but was ignored by everyone finally showed his power.
Zhao Kuangyin was originally very ambitious and full of ambitions because today he became the Emperor of the Song Dynasty and the ruler of hundreds of millions of living beings. but now. The auspicious day took away his light, which made him very dissatisfied. The emperor was so angry that the whole world was shaken! He immediately agreed after receiving a secret transmission from Yun Long.
Zhao Kuangyin stood on the altar and silently exercised the internal power of "Five Emperors Dragon Fist" and shouted: "I, Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, pray to the sky!" At this time, Taiyuan City was filled with the sound of magic bombardment, and the voices could not be heard at all, but what Zhao Kuangyin said The words he spoke were based on the unique "Dragon Fury" mentality of the "Five Emperors Dragon Fist", which had a powerful and penetrating power like that of the Dragon Emperor, resounding throughout Taiyuan. All the people who had been attracted by the "auspiciousness" in the sky then remembered the founding ceremony of the Song Dynasty today and focused their attention on Zhao Kuangyin. Even the masters of cultivation in the air were stunned and acted carelessly. After all, this is the speech of the Innate Human Emperor. If he interrupts it in order to show "auspiciousness", he will definitely be disgusted and it will be counterproductive.
"Since I was a child, I have known that the world is suffering and all industries are withering, but I suffer from the fact that I am young and have no ability. Therefore, it is impossible to think about it." Zhao Kuangyin said in a low and slow voice. Listening to his words, others couldn't help but feel a heavy sense of depression in their hearts. It is true that the decades of chaos have really harmed too many people.
"Fortunately, I will have the opportunity to learn the art of war and martial arts at the age of ten and be able to conquer the world." Zhao Kuangyin's voice changed with excitement. Yes, that period. It was the biggest turning point in his life.
"Since then, I have traveled all over the world, experienced many difficulties in deserts and Gobi deserts, and escaped death several times." Zhao Kuangyin's voice was full of joy.
"However, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. During this period, in addition to encountering dangers, I also made many friends and traveled around the world with me. I hope others will not give up and follow me." Zhao Kuangyin said and turned his head to Zhu Ci and Lang Feng in the crowd. They expressed their gratitude slightly. Zhu Ci and Lang Feng were also very moved and sighed as they recalled the days when they went through thick and thin together.
"I discovered along the way that the world is still in crisis! The Central Plains has been war-torn for years and the people have been displaced and miserable. Although the south of the Yangtze River is a little comfortable, the emperor and the officials in the south of the Yangtze River are incessant. They only know how to feed the people, and the subjects under the oppression are rampant, bullies are rampant, and bandits are endless. Road. The government is corrupt and the country is in ruins. Only the southwest has a superior terrain and rich products. Although the people have to pay a lot of taxes and are exploited at all levels, they can still survive.
However, when I learned about his king's character, I despised him. Sitting in a wealthy land, facing dangerous enemies and thousands of subjects, it can be said that we have the right time, place, people and people, but we can only be trapped in one place. Why? There is no other country where the king has no great ambitions. The Lord of Shu was obsessed with pleasure, extravagant, and did not think about progress, which was really the way to die! "Zhao Kuangyin's voice was so decisive that people couldn't help but believe what he said.
Xiang Tiannan couldn't help but feel angry secretly when he heard Zhao Kuangyin's words, but he couldn't refute it. Because according to his understanding, the Lord of Shu was indeed the one with worse virtues than Zhao Kuangyin said, so he could only gather his anger but still listened patiently. At the same time, he decided in his heart that he must find an opportunity to teach the Lord of Shu a lesson in the future. Anyway, the Human Emperor has been born and will destroy Hou Shu sooner or later, but he is not worried about Hou Shu's revenge at all - I understand that he does not have the courage and ability.
"The Tubo civil strife, the Uighur barbarism, and the Liao Kingdom built by the Khitan were wolfish ambitions, nomadic habits, and constant cross-border plundering. They also supported the later Jin's conspiracy to destabilize the Central Plains. Looking at the artifacts of the country. The more I learned along the way, the heavier my heart became. Can China return it? Is there any hope? Is there hope for the common people?" Zhao Kuangyin's voice was filled with anger, sadness and finally turned into a low tone, which made everyone feel that the future was bleak and there was no way out.
"That's when I came to Houhan!" Zhao Kuangyin's voice became passionate. "The leader of the Later Han Dynasty, Liu He, and the prime minister, were generous and virtuous, considerate of the people, and had far-reaching strategies. The land under their jurisdiction was ten times richer than other places! The soldiers they trained were ten times more elite than other countries! Their talents were even better than those of other countries. The king is a hundred times more powerful! Such a country is the country I want to live in. So after a little investigation, I brought my children over and joined the army myself."
"Prime Minister Liu treats me very kindly and does not look down upon me for my many promotions because of my young age and low qualifications. If people respect me, I will repay them with a drop of water. My decision is to repay the appreciation and protection of others." The country will pacify the world!" Zhao Kuangyin looked at Liu He who was at the front of the crowd, his eyes moistened and he saluted him. Liu He also looked excited and inexplicably moved and returned the favor.
"The days that followed were also the happiest days for me. In my military career, I went from being an ordinary soldier to a general who led the army in the south and north, and even became the vanguard of the attack on the Later Jin Dynasty. I defeated his city in one battle and then destroyed his country in another battle. This traitor was eliminated. How happy it is that the country has cut off the claws extended by Bei Liao towards China! What pride!" Zhao Kuangyin's voice got higher and higher with excitement. Even as an ordinary person, one can hear the high-spirited and heroic ambition in his voice.
"In three years of Jin Dynasty, I became the general of Jinwu Guard. I thought I had reached the pinnacle of my life, but I didn't expect that the prime minister actually elected me as the emperor. He said that I was old and lacked energy. I was the only one worthy of being the king of a country, so I couldn't refuse." Zhao Kuangyin doesn't mind. He said this because it is well known that Liu He valued him, and there was no monarch in the Later Han Dynasty. As the supreme leader, Liu He was actually a spiritual monarch. He wanted to abdicate and elect himself as the emperor. From the legal perspective, there was really nothing wrong with it.
The other cultivators couldn't help but be shocked. They didn't expect that Liu He, a mere mortal, could see Zhao Kuangyin's extraordinary power with such eyes. But when I turned my attention to Liu He and saw the thick golden light of merit on his body, I couldn't help but feel relieved. It was normal for such merit to be a little strange.
"I didn't dare to refuse, so I had to accept. But I was scared." Zhao Kuangyin's voice dropped again. "Because I am afraid that I am not capable enough to take on such an important task and cannot stabilize the world, let the people have a good life, have a good life, everyone is healthy, and have a peaceful and stable life! I feel that if I cannot do this, I will be sorry for this country. My subjects, I am sorry for God’s love!”
"It's worth it! It's worth it! Your Majesty, you must be able to do it! Although I am old, I am willing to assist you with all my strength." Liu He took the lead in bowing and shouted with tears streaming down his face. Other subjects were also moved by Zhao Kuangyin's words. Although they had no magic power and could not see the spirit of the real dragon and emperor in Zhao Kuangyin, at this time they inexplicably believed that Zhao Kuangyin would be a wise king who would lead the Song Dynasty to pacify the world and move towards prosperity, so they all accepted it. He bowed his head and kowtowed endlessly.
When other common people saw these officials, they all knelt down and kowtowed. They also knelt down and kowtowed hurriedly. They also heard Zhao Kuangyin's words and felt that Zhao Kuangyin would be a good emperor because he valued the people so much. So while kneeling down, they also shouted "Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live Long live". Long live!" The mortals present no longer paid attention to those "auspicious things" but fell to their knees on the ground and shouted long live. All the cultivation masters felt shocked when they saw it from the sky. Hundreds of thousands of people kowtow to one person. Apart from gods, only the emperor can do this.
"Thank you for your trust in me. I swear with this auspicious oath that I will unify the world, restore peace to the world, and build a peaceful world!" Zhao Kuangyin also became excited. He shouted loudly with his fingers to the sky and at the same time activated the internal power of the "Five Emperors Dragon Fist" with all his strength. . Yunlong also took advantage of everyone's attention being attracted by Zhao Kuangyin to activate the spell.
"Huh!" Zhao Kuangyin's body suddenly erupted with a strong momentum. Visible to the naked eye, bright yellow light surged out of his body and enveloped his whole body like a ball of golden flames. In the light, Zhao Kuangyin's expression was majestic and domineering. At the same time, a burst of dragon roar suddenly came from deep in the sky, and then a hole opened in the void. A pair of golden dragon claws stretched out from it, and then the dragon head, dragon body and dragon tail came out one after another. What appeared in front of everyone was a hundred feet long dragon. , a five-clawed golden dragon with glittering golden body!
The people of the Song Dynasty suppressed this legendary dragon. The emperor ascended the throne and descended from the sky. The auspicious dragon appears in this world. It is a rare sight in ten thousand years. So they all grew up and stood there with their mouths stunned. The masters of cultivation were also stunned with their cultivation. Wei Ziran saw that this was not a real dragon, but a golden dragon transformed from the aura of the magic weapon. It was only because the magic weapon was so spiritual that the golden dragon transformed into it could be seen vividly. But the problem is that the level of this magic weapon is too high, almost reaching the level of the acquired spiritual treasure, and the cultivation level of the person who manipulates the magic weapon is also too high. He only uses the power of the soul to stimulate the magic weapon's own spiritual power, but it can create such a huge momentum. His soul level has at least reached the realm of immortals! Where did the master come from and what did he want to do? The cultivation masters couldn't help but make guesses and secretly increased their vigilance.
The golden dragon flew in the air for a while. The longan the size of a well suddenly shined directly at Zhao Kuangyin below. Two beams of light covered Zhao Kuangyin. Zhao Kuangyin was a little panicked at first, but he found that being covered by the beam of light not only did not hurt him, but also gave him a warm and comfortable feeling. I squinted my eyes and enjoyed it.
Jin Long stared at the beam of light in his eyes for a while. Zhao Kuangyin nodded as if he was satisfied, then he put away the beam of light and looked up to the sky with a roar of the dragon and directed it to the ground - to be precise, all the "auspicious things" along the way Zhao Kuangyin flew were popped like bubbles. . The other cultivation masters were a little panicked at first, but they found that the golden dragon had no ill intentions and was just knocking these "eyesore" things away, so they all smiled bitterly and did not want to offend the secretly immortal master, so they looked at each other in tacit understanding and took it back at the same time. spell. If the "auspiciousness" that cannot be produced is destroyed by others, it is very unlucky in itself and a very embarrassing thing. It is better to take it back while the situation is good. They have done enough.
During the flight, the golden dragon became smaller and smaller: Baizhang, Fifty Zhang, Shizhang, etc. When it came to Zhao Kuangyin, it was only ten feet in size. The golden dragon flew around Zhao Kuangyin in a circle, looked up to the sky and roared, then wrapped around Zhao Kuangyin's body, absorbing all the golden aura from Zhao Kuangyin's body, and then the golden light swayed so generously that others could not open their eyes. When the golden light dissipated, the golden dragon had disappeared, but Zhao Kuangyin had a golden dragon-patterned ribbon around his waist.
"The auspicious golden dragon descending from the sky and entering the emperor's body is indeed a true dragon. Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!" When the subjects of the Song Dynasty saw this wonderful scene, they were all excited and kowtowed and shouted. Even the cultivation masters in the sky looked at each other in confusion. Could this mysterious master really be from heaven? Just to give a magic weapon to Emperor Tianding? They couldn't help but doubt that they had just seen a magic weapon that was almost an acquired spiritual treasure, and it could also absorb dragon energy. Apart from Heaven and the Dragon Palace, they really didn't know of such a magic weapon anywhere else. It was impossible for the Dragon Palace to join in the excitement of the human race. Only Heaven can do this. It's not like the Heavenly Court has never done something similar. During the Battle of Zhulu, it sent the Nine Heavens Xuannv to grant Xuanyuan the Yellow Emperor the Book of Heaven as a sign of friendship.
But now that the Heavenly Emperor has ascended the throne, he is just a human being. Isn’t it too quick for Heaven to react? Everyone thought it was a bit strange but didn't know why. Only Yunlong snickered secretly. This was all planned by him. The golden dragon was transformed from his natal magic weapon "Dragon Binding Rope". It was made of dragon body material and had been refined by him for many years, so it was close to the acquired spiritual treasure. He also planned to let Zhao Kuangyin stay in Zhao Kuangyin's body for a few more days, firstly to absorb the dragon's energy and increase his power; secondly, to use Zhao Kuangyin as a protective weapon to prevent Xiaoxiao's assassination.
The founding ceremony was over, the auspiciousness had been put away, and the cultivation masters had nothing else to do. They left their contact information and exchanged greetings for a while before leaving. Too many things happened today and they had to go back to the gate to discuss with the senior management how to treat Da Song in the future.
(Only after I wrote it did I realize that my ancient attainments were very poor. It’s a shame that I didn’t write historical novels, otherwise I would definitely be worse than I am now~囧~)
