"I clearly saw you offering sacrifices to the Tianzhu that day, and you did have magic power in your body. You even used magic to kill Zhou Xiantian before.
With all this evidence, how could it be possible that Taiping Dao Shu was not compiled? "
The impact of Lu Yuan's words was so great that Master Anqiu panicked and couldn't help but question him repeatedly.
If it is true as the other party said.
Since the last time I worshiped the Tianzhu, I haven't practiced Taiping Dao Book. So the calculations of Dan Ding Dao over the years have failed?
And this time, I was eager to send tens of millions of taels of silver to a person who had played a trick on me and Alchemy Dao. Wasn't it a joke?
Forget the above.
The key is that Lu Yuan has not practiced Taiping Taoism, what should he do with his own Taoism?
Without this experimental data, and no one else to be the pathfinder, under the general trend of the decline of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, could the Danding Taoist sect be in decline like this?
Or let yourself practice Taiping Taoism and become the experimental subject?
Thinking of the miserable fate of the white mice he had seen in the past, and thinking that he still had decades to live, this thought had just arisen before it was suppressed by Master Anqiu.
Who would want to die until the last moment or as a last resort?
But right now...
Master Anqiu stared at Lu Yuan with fear and anger in his heart, and with some expectation.
Faced with this look, Lu Yuan looked calm and said in a cold tone: "How is this impossible? What kind of technique is Taiping Taoist Book? Doesn't Taoist Anqiu have some idea in his mind?
Gu is young and has a bright future, so he only practices this technique when his brain is exhausted.
The last time I looked for you, I just wanted to get some military resources.
Do you still take it seriously?
And Gu Ye did not break the contract.
You asked me to offer sacrifices to the Tianzhu, so I can offer sacrifices alone. He asked me to practice Taoism, and I did it.
It’s just that I didn’t promise you whether to practice for a day, a month, or even a year.
Practicing Taiping Taoism alone for one day has cost me more than half a month of life. I am already worthy of Alchemy Taoism and have fulfilled the requirements.
Then you no longer want to practice cultivation. That is Gu's fault and has nothing to do with the original agreement. "
Although the terms of this transaction were agreed upon by both parties in advance, they were all acquiesced.
But there was no mention in the agreement that Lu Yuan should continue to practice Taiping Taoism.
Therefore, if he practices for one day, he is practicing, and if he practices for one year, he is practicing.
As long as you practice cultivation, the requirement will be fulfilled, and this naturally does not count as going back on your word.
And the Taoism of Taiping Taoism.
how to say?
This is indeed a Taoist method that will shorten your lifespan, but as long as you do not practice this Taoist method and do not receive the spirit of the immortal spirit from the Tianzhu.
Then the thoughts of all peoples and the fate of the world will naturally not swarm in and bite them back.
Therefore, if you don’t practice this skill, your longevity will naturally not be reduced.
If you don't take it, you won't harm it.
Lu Yuan didn't gain the convenience of cultivation and the spirit of immortality through the technique, so naturally this technique wouldn't harm him.
When Dan Ding Dao made this agreement, he did not clarify the details and formally put forward various requirements, which led to such loopholes in the agreement. That is the other party's business.
Now Lu Yuan was looking for loopholes and chose this cunning method to break the contract. That was also his skill. …
I'm just willing to admit defeat. Who can I blame?
"you……"
Master Anqiu was shocked and frightened when he heard Lu Yuan's eloquent words. He finally calmed down and was replaced by anger: "King Chu is playing tricks on me like this. Isn't he really afraid of my Alchemy Dao's revenge?
Or does the King of Chu think that he can really get through this with his clever words and self-deception?
Do you really think that the many benefits of my Alchemy Dao are so easy to obtain? "
Master Anqiu naturally knew that although what Lu Yuan said above was an opportunist, it was logically correct.
Because in the original agreement, they did not stipulate how long Lu Yuan would practice Taoism, they just required him to practice.
But there were no detailed regulations at the beginning, so how could we blame them?
At that time, Lu Yuan was, after all, a prince, and an innate master. This status is already in this world.
For this kind of person, if someone is willing to make this kind of deal with you, Dan Ding Dao, it is already a big concession.
If you pick on your nose and face again and again, do you really think that others have no temper?
What if Lu Yuan gets angry and stops doing this business?
After all, judging from the situation at that time, even if Lu Yuan didn't have the money, it didn't mean that he couldn't survive. At most, he would have to recruit fewer troops.
Relying on the original capital, even if you don't stand up against the imperial court, you can still conquer the territory and become the king of a place. There is still a guarantee.
It's just that the scenery at that time was far less than that of Dachu today.
So based on Lu Yuan's conditions, he was the one who took the initiative at that time, and it was Dan Ding Dao who asked him to do this business.
Since he is asking for help, he cannot be said to be strong, nor can he ask for much.
In addition, Dan Ding Dao was also confident in his own strength, which was enough to make people dare not break the contract, so he didn't think too much at the time and made this deal in a hurry.
Moreover, the dignified princes and innate masters are considered to be people with status after all.
Who could have known that Lu Yuan would be so capricious and capricious, and that he would refuse to accept the agreed terms in this way.
This has become the current situation.
Anqiu Zhenren thought about this and felt really regretful and extremely ashamed.
"Whether it's clever or not, fellow Taoist can tell you. Anyway, Gu believes that the original agreement has been fulfilled."
In response to Master Anqiu's angry questioning, Lu Yuan remained calm and said calmly: "As for whether your family wants to take revenge..."
Having said this, he looked at Master Anqiu and said in a serious tone: "Fellow Taoist said this in front of me, do you not want to go back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuan's powerful aura was revealed without any scruples. A powerful spiritual thought also enveloped Master Anqiu from all directions.
This huge sense of oppression came and instantly made most of Anqiu's anger disappear.
Then I remembered that the person in front of me was an immortal cultivator who was united in strength. In terms of cultivation, he was no worse than this Taoist master.
At this time, I said harsh words to take revenge on the other party. If the other party became angry and embarrassed, he would actually kill me.
It would be an injustice to break off an arm first and then fight against Dan Ding Dao.
After understanding his situation, Master Anqiu was instantly frightened. He couldn't help sweating from behind, but he didn't dare to say any more threatening words. …
'Wait, the cultivation of condensed energy! ,
In the midst of surprise and doubt, Master Anqiu felt the terrifying divine thoughts around him, but he also reacted instantly, and a surprise suddenly arose in his heart.
Yes.
If the other party had not cultivated Taiping Taoism, how could he have such strength?
How could he reach such a state without practicing Taiping Taoism, without any techniques, and without the spirit of a fairy?
'Were Lu Yuan's words just now bluffing me? It was out of anger that I came to him to inquire about life and death that I deceived him with this statement. ,
Anqiu Zhenren thought about the prosecution, but he suppressed the fear in his heart, and then asked: "The king said to himself that he has never practiced Taiping Taoism. But at this time, how can we explain this spiritual thought and the huge magic power in the king's body?
Without cultivating the Taoist Book of Taiping, without channeling the spiritual power from the Heavenly Pillar, and without access to the Heavenly Caves, how could your Majesty be able to cultivate such magical power?
The old Taoist knows that I am not popular in front of the king.
But your Majesty, you won’t bully me like this. "
After saying that, he looked at Lu Yuan with an awe-inspiring expression full of exploration.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan smiled.
I didn't expect that the other party would not give up at this point, even in this face-breaking situation.
That's fine.
If this is the case, then show real evidence and make the other party completely despair.
"How do you practice alone?"
Lu Yuan said something, then reached into his arms, took out something, waved it in front of Master Anqiu, and then threw it over: "Do you know this thing, fellow Taoist Anqiu?"
Seeing this, Master Anqiu quickly took it and then looked at it intently.
After seeing clearly what was in front of him, his eyes suddenly bulged and he exclaimed: "Chu Ling Jade!"
Yes, as a successor of a great religion, Master Anqiu certainly has such a discerning eye.
After just a little exploration, and at the same time using his spiritual sense to detect the spiritual energy in the jade, he immediately recognized the origin of this object.
After simultaneously exploring the remaining spiritual energy in the jade and the capacity of the Ling Jade, his heart sank completely.
Because the amount of spiritual energy that this spiritual jade can store is surprisingly large. Added together, it is enough for one person to practice to the point of condensing one energy.
Looking at the amount of spiritual energy remaining now, it seems that the King of Chu in front of him may have started to practice immortal magic early. Even if he has not condensed his energy now, he is not far behind.
hateful! hateful!
Master Anqiu suddenly felt a surge of hatred and jealousy in his heart.
Since he hated his sect's plan, it actually came to nothing, and he also became a laughing stock.
He was even more jealous that Lu Yuan in front of him had such an opportunity to obtain such a spiritual jade.
None of the successors of my great religion are so blessed.
The other party is just a man from the mountains. How can he possess such a treasure?
Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan, gritted his teeth and said, "The King of Chu has hidden himself so deeply. He is obviously a monk, but he has been hiding it so deeply that no trace of it has been revealed.
No wonder I look down on Taiping Taoism. Given such an opportunity, I wouldn't want to practice that short-lived method.
But I have one thing, I hope the King of Chu can clear up my doubts.
Where did the King of Chu come from with this jade piece?
When he met the King of Chu at Ziyundao, was the King already a monk? "
Master Anqiu wanted to find out the origin of this opportunity and when Lu Yuan started to lie to him. …
Otherwise, even if he goes back or dies here, he will not be able to rest in peace.
Regarding this point, Lu Yuan, who wanted to make a clean break and find a protective explanation for himself, would naturally satisfy him.
"There is a reason for the origin of this jade piece."
Lu Yuan smiled and glanced at the old Taoist, and then said slowly: "Fellow Taoist Anqiu, have you ever heard of Master Sun Qingyi?"
"Sun Qingyi?" When Master Anqiu heard the name, he was stunned at first, then frowned and thought, and after a moment his eyes were shocked: "The Sun Qingyi who received the inheritance of the ancient Wind and Thunder Dao a hundred years ago, and condensed his energy as a casual cultivator? You? Obtained his inheritance?”
"Of course." Lu Yuan nodded, and then smiled: "Fellow Taoist, do you know the name of my Prime Minister?"
After hearing this question, Master Anqiu thought about it again and said with a sudden expression: "Sun Siwen, Right Prime Minister. Yes, I remember that Sun Qingyi was from Yuzhang County. It should be common sense that he left his heirs there.
And you are from Yuzhang County, so it is possible for you to get immortality from his descendants.
Everything turns out to be like this, everything turns out to be like this. "
I figured it all out.
Master Anqiu is no longer confused at all about the origin of Lu Yuan's immortal magic and the origin of his immortal spirit.
A hundred years ago, Sun Qingyi, Sun Zhenren, cultivated himself as a casual cultivator, but caused a big disturbance in the Kyushu Immortal Cultivation World.
Countless people were shocked by each other's opportunity and final achievement.
It's a pity that this person has a very strong heart towards the Tao, and even after he has cultivated his Qi, he is not greedy for the mortal world.
Instead, he turned around and found the former Taoist Master of Ziyun Dao, and together they crossed the sea and headed north to the Northern Underworld Capital, looking for the elusive and elusive road to ascension.
Originally, everyone didn't know Sun Qingyi's background or whether he had any descendants in his family.
So after Sun Qingyi ascended to the throne, although some people went to look for the other party's legacy, they wanted to take another chance and get the legacy of the ancient thunder path.
But after several years of searching, nothing was found. Everyone thought that Sun Qingyi had left nothing behind, and the storm subsided.
At this time, Lu Yuan blew himself up, and then Master Anqiu knew that Sun Qingyi actually left behind descendants.
But the legacy left by the other party to future generations was finally given to Lu Yuan.
This luck...
The more I think about it, the more angry and jealous I become.
Looking at Master Anqiu's expression, Lu Yuan knew in his heart that the cover-up he had been planning had finally come true.
From then on, he practiced Taiping Taoism, and his appearance was covered by the Five Thunders Book.
And Sun Qingyi's legacy will always be with him, becoming a heel in the eyes of outsiders.
The hidden danger that had been weighing on my mind finally disappeared, and naturally I felt very happy.
"Now that I have cultivated the Five Thunder Books left by Master Sun, I have achieved a small level of self-consciousness. My only wish from now on is to continue to improve this method."
In joy, Lu Yuan continued to speak: "It is absolutely impossible for me to practice the Taiping Dao Book. I thought the previous agreement was completed.
But if Dan Ding Dao feels that I have breached the contract, he would like to come and ask for an explanation.
Then I am here in Chu State, in this Baling City, waiting for the arrival of Taoist Master Danding.
At that time, monks like us will no longer need to make any excuses. We can directly resolve this grudge with Taoism. "…
Lu Yuan's words were very soft and slow, without any excitement at all, just like talking to others in an ordinary way.
But when Master Anqiu listened, his heart felt as heavy as a pound.
Because he knew that if the other party dared to say this, he was naturally ready to break up with Dan Ding Dao.
And Lu Yuan had met Master Ziyun Dao, and had seen the prosperity and strength of Ziyun Dao.
As a Danding Dao who is not bad at all in Ziyun Dao, if the other party can say these words, it shows that he is not afraid of the oppression of Danding Dao.
'Could this person really be united? ,
Master Anqiu thought so in his heart, a chill came over him, but he said with a stern face: "What the King of Chu said, the old Taoist will report back to the Taoist Master accurately after he returns.
The Taoist Master will have his own thoughts on how to respond at that time, so King Chu will wait and see.
This is the spiritual jade of the King of Chu. I offer it to you and say goodbye. "
After saying that, Master Anqiu pushed the spiritual jade forward and handed it back to Lu Yuan.
Then I didn't want to stay in this place for a moment anymore, so I turned around and left.
Lu Yuan didn't want to keep him as he said before, he just watched quietly and let him go.
Although he fell out with Dan Dingdao.
But whether the other party will go to war with him is still unknown after showing his strength today.
Maybe Dan Ding Dao is afraid of his own strength and chooses to endure this tone and take a step back?
This possibility is still very high.
If you kill Master Anqiu at this time, you can certainly kill Alchemy Cauldron's arm. But it also completely made the situation impossible to change.
Although he said he was not afraid of Danding Dao.
But Lu Yuan knew in his heart that if he really fought with the opponent, his side would be more likely to lose.
Even if you can save one life by then.
But it's hard to know how many of Sun Siwen, Zhou Qing, Lan Cai'er, his two sons, and even the Chu country can be saved in the end.
The price was too high, and Lu Yuan was unwilling to gamble.
"So I hope Alchemy Dao can know the pros and cons, and don't get angry for a moment and make irrational actions. Otherwise, if we really fight, both sides will be hurt, and no one will feel comfortable if they continue to die."
Lu Yuan sat on the throne, gently stroking the cold throne with his left hand, feeling the delicate lines on it, and felt extremely calm in his heart.
…
After meeting Master Anqiu, Lu Yuan's movements suddenly sped up again.
The mobilization of the army, the storage of grain and grass, and even the capture of Da Changhe Kingdom, the establishment of a government and the officials needed to establish counties, also began to select the officials.
The progress of preparations to attack the country of Da Changhe suddenly accelerated.
I don’t know if Dan Ding Dao will come to trouble me, and I don’t know if the two sides will eventually fight.
But Lu Yuan himself couldn't trust all this to the other party who would take the overall situation into consideration and swallow his anger.
You still have to prepare for what you have to do.
Therefore, improving one's strength as soon as possible has become the only choice at the moment.
Seize more territory, gather more luck, and make the cultivation of Taiping Daoshu faster.
As long as you can finally break through and gather your energy, even if you really fall out with Danding Dao, you can still fight back and forth, and you won't be at a one-sided disadvantage.
The strength at this time can protect oneself, but the gap with Danding Dao is still too big.
Fortunately, Chu State and Danding Road are thousands of miles apart.
Between the two sides, even if they work hard, it will still take two or three months.
And if the other party is really planning to target the Chu State, it is naturally impossible to take action immediately after receiving the summons. Some preparations also need to be arranged.
Taking into account the time and preparation involved in this journey, it may be more than half a year later when the two parties actually take action.
This long period of time can also buy Lu Yuan some more preparation time.
"Xiao Qing should be able to break through the innateness in July and August. We will hold a celebration ceremony for him then. When the news spreads, Chu's luck will increase a little more.
By then my cultivation should be able to increase a bit more.
By then using this news and knowing that I have another innate master here, I may be able to disrupt some of the preparations for the Alchemy Cauldron and make them change their plans.
If we delay for a little longer, I can open up some situations somewhere by sending troops to conquer Changhe.
If we gather our strength together, maybe we can do it.
Why fear the Alchemy Cauldron Dao then? "
Lu Yuan was planning this in his mind.
Of course, his falling out with Dan Ding Dao couldn't be just a matter of passion.
This interlocking plan was also planned in my heart.
Let's see who is ready first.
Lu Yuan will wait and see.
