Although the Holy Emperor Yingji is rich in various states and has hundreds of millions of people, he still has to distract himself from the world. All he sees is the country. How can he have the time and energy to do these small things? His heart only focuses on the major events of the world, turning his hands into clouds and rain, and controlling the changes in the world's situation.
But in fact, sometimes a small person and one thing can change the world chess game.
He is planning from a macro level step by step, while Bai Jun is planning from a small point. There is no superiority between the two methods of game and planning. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
So when Ying Ji decided to touch him, naturally Bai Jun also wanted to fight back. Other gods were afraid of Ying Ji, but he was not. Because Bai Jun is the hub of the world of humans and demons, if the Holy Emperor takes action personally, he is not completely sure that once Bai Jun is allowed to escape, the entire demon land in the Qinan Mountains will be the enemy of the Jin Dynasty.
In other words, Bai Jun is like the princes guarding the southern and southwest borders of the Jin Dynasty. A single move can affect his whole body, and if he moves him, his muscles and bones will be broken.
So the Holy Emperor chose this method of boiling frogs in warm water and slowly figured it out. At that time, the Jin Dynasty was busy conquering the Yue Kingdom and the Northern Barbarians in the west, and had no time to take care of the southern border, so he chose Baijun to maintain peace in the rear. Now the overall situation has been decided, and his family You still have to get your territory back into your own hands to feel at ease.
But Bai Jun has painstakingly managed Qinan Prefecture, Yunzhou, Jinzhou, Mingzhou, Yinzhou and other prefectures for hundreds of years. How can he just take it back?
Within these five states, the decree of Emperor Nanhua was much more efficient in mobilizing the gods than the decree of the Holy Emperor far away in Jinjing. The city gods of these states, prefectures, and counties all have interests related to him to some extent. If there is no overwhelming power to sweep them away, then the land of these five states is actually still in Bai Jun's hands.
As for how to control it, it is naturally influenced by beliefs, customs, culture, economy and other aspects. There are very few people in the Five Prefectures who do not believe in the Liu Cult. Even if they do not believe in it, they still respect the name of Nanhua Emperor and accept the living habits influenced by various Liu Xianhui and Liu Cult cultures, thus being subtly instilled in them to believe in the Liu Cult.
The reason why the Liu Sect is in its current situation is naturally inseparable from the good intentions of everyone in the Liu Sect.
During the hundreds of years that Wang Weichuan served as the head of the Liu Sect's bishop, he worked hard to spread the Liu Sect's beliefs and penetrate the Liu Sect's ideas into the hearts of the people little by little. There are many things that, with just a few hints, he can figure out how to do them and how to spread them.
Moreover, the number of Liujiao teachers now exceeds tens of thousands. How to manage and restrain these tribesmen and how to drive them is also extremely laborious and beyond the reach of only a few people.
Wang Yuansheng's decision back then was obviously correct. His son Wang Weihe did not have the wisdom in these aspects, so it was most appropriate to be the authoritative and intimidating high priest.
…
Bai Jun, who returned to Snake King Valley, saw Zi Chu coiled on a willow branch. He was lying lazily on the ancient and thick branches of the willow tree, basking in the sun leisurely.
When Bai Yan saw him, he laughed dumbly, remembering that Qing Cang was like this when he was lazy a long time ago.
He waved his hand and photographed Zi Chu from the air. When he woke up and saw that it was Bai Jun, he immediately became happy and rubbed his wrist with his neck.
Bai Yan raised him in front of his eyes and said with a smile: "From now on, you won't be allowed to be so lazy anymore."
Putting it on the boulder beside the ancient pool, Bai Jun sat cross-legged opposite it and said seriously: "Stand straight and raise your head."
Zichu slowly raised his head reluctantly, looking at him curiously with a pair of vertical purple pupils.
"From now on, you need to listen to me recite a sutra every day. When reciting a Buddhist sutra, you need to concentrate your mind and not be distracted. Do you hear me?" Bai Jun hooked his hand, took off a thin willow branch, and hit the little snake with a measured stroke. , his body trembled in pain, and he instantly became energetic.
When Bai Jun saw this, he put it away and said: "It seems that it is better to be stricter. Qing Cang grew too big back then and was not disciplined since he was a child. He developed a wild nature. Now, you can't be so lazy and lazy anymore. .”
Having said that, Bai Jun sat cross-legged and carefully began to recite moral scriptures attentively. His voice was neither loud nor quiet, as calm as water, rippling in the quiet and small valley, and was carried to all parts of the valley by the wind.
The apricot blossom forest not far away is so prosperous, with bees and butterflies flying around, the deer lowers its head to eat grass, and the two horns on its head are still missing one after another petals.
In the grass, the hare's mouth is constantly chewing, and its pink tongue and fresh grass juice are exposed from time to time. A furry fox is lying leisurely in a sunny place, squinting its narrow fox eyes, not far away The big fat rabbit has no interest.
Bai Zhen's voice as clear as water echoed in the breeze, which made Zi Chu feel sleepy, his jaw dropped bit by bit, and his eyes gradually became dull.
Whenever it was about to fall asleep, Bai Zhen picked up the willow branch in his hand and slapped Zi Chu on it. The pain made it wake up instantly, but it did not damage the body.
Finally, when Zichu was about to fall asleep after being tortured, Bai Jun said: "Today's Taoist scriptures have been recited, and that's the end."
Zichu's head sank, and it was finally over. It was lying like mud, motionless.
Bai Jun stuck a willow branch on the boulder, then took out a bracelet made of sandalwood beads and smashed it on the head, causing Zi Chu to wake up again.
"The Taoist Sutra ends and the Buddhist Sutra begins."
Zi Chu's eyes turned black and he was stunned for a moment, spitting out snake letters with a look of begging for mercy. Bai Yan ignored it and slowly started to recite it again. He had not recited the Mahaparinirvana Sutra for a long time, but now he recited it like old wine in new clothes, and gained many new insights.
All living and non-spirited things in the valley are immersed in the clear sound of Bai Jun, listening to the sound of Buddha and Taoism, and receiving edification day and night.
His voice contains more music, goes deeper into the beast's heart, and conveys the true meaning. All the spiritual beasts in the valley are moistened by him.
After finishing the Buddhist scriptures, Zi Chu finally felt relieved and fell asleep. Bai Jun no longer cared about it and just let it lie on the boulder and fell asleep.
He slowly stood up and placed the sandalwood fragrant bead bracelet in his hand next to the willow branch. After his long immersion in Taoist sounds and the fusion of mana, these two things may become two good magic weapons in the future. , and it will definitely become the stuff of Zi Chu’s nightmares.
Bai Jun planned to give these two things to him after he attained the Tao through cultivation, as a reminder to keep his true heart in mind and abide by his Tao heart.
Because Zichu is different from ordinary snake demons. It is a precious exotic ancient beast. If it can be cultivated, it will be similar to the dual cultivation of body and law among mortals. It has both physical, blood and magical powers. Its strength can be said to be invincible at the same level.
Bai Jun was determined to train him as the future Lord of Mount Fei. If he and Zhao were no longer here one day, then Zi Chu would be the new Lord of Mount Fei and the Lord of Tianqi Beifu.
…
The days passed slowly like this. After a few months, Bai Jun suddenly remembered something and sent an order to Chen Die: "Let him come to see me."
Not long after, two rays of light fell outside the Snake King Valley, and a faint golden light curtain separated in the void, allowing them to enter the valley.
This pale golden light curtain was a barrier specially set up by Bai Jun Rangzhao. Recently, people in the martial arts have become more and more daring. Many people have formed teams and ventured into the Golden Peak, approaching the area around the Snake King Valley.
After all, the Snake King Valley is still very close to the human world, with only a straight line distance between two peaks. In fact, the Snake King Valley is no longer the most suitable place for self-cultivation. However, Bai Jun is a nostalgic person. He is used to living here and is too lazy to live here anymore. Moving earth veins, feng shui, etc., and Zhao's Kingdom of God is located above the Snake King Valley, where all the luck of the Mountain for thousands of years has gathered. Generally, large sects will not easily change the mountain gate unless it is a matter of life and death.
This involves a lot of theories about luck, but Bai Jun also knows little about luck and understands very little, so he naturally dares not to act rashly.
Chen Die led one person to the apricot blossom forest and said respectfully: "My subordinates pay homage to the Commander-in-Chief! Yu Qi has been brought here."
Bai Yan nodded and looked at the person behind her.
"Little demon Yu Qi pays homage to the emperor! I beg the emperor for mercy to take in the little demon!" After seeing him, Yu Qi kowtowed with his head to the ground, showing great piety.
Bai Jun sighed softly, "Get up. Unfortunately, the master of Qingli Palace died in the ruins, and Qianyu Lake is probably without a leader.
As the most loyal person to the Master of Qingli Palace, you should be the one to lead this Qianyuhu Water Palace. "
Yu Qi's face was filled with joy and he said hurriedly: "Little demon thanks the emperor for his kindness, and he will remember it for the rest of his life! In the eyes of the little demon, you will always be the emperor of all demons in the Qinnan Mountains!"
Bai Jun chuckled, "That's wrong, Qianyu Lake is under my Beifu, and I am the commander-in-chief of Tianqi Demon Mansion. This title is a thing of the past in front of people."
Yu Qi understood this and said respectfully: "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I, the Ten Thousand Shui Tribes in Qianyu Lake, only respect the orders of the Beifu, but if the orders are followed, the whole government will do its best!"
"That's very good." Bai Jun nodded, stretched out his hand and took out an elixir and said, "This is the thousand-year-old elixir in the ruins. I think your cultivation level is close to the Xuanpin, so use this medicine to break through to the Xuanpin, otherwise Huang Pin’s cultivation level cannot convince thousands of water tribesmen in Qianyu Lake.”
"Yes! Yes! The little demon thanks the commander for his help!" Yu Qi said with great excitement.
Watching Yu Qi leave, Bai Jun asked, "Have all the other three transformed demons in Qianyu Lake surrendered?"
"Yes, Sister Bai Su personally took action to subdue the three old fish monsters. They were very precious about their lives and agreed on the spot." Chendie replied seriously: "The three old fish monsters are already old, and their magic power has begun to dissipate. It is not enough to do anything. It’s just that Yu Qi seems to have good talent and is still young. If you, Commander-in-Chief, put him in such high regard, do you want to leave some precautions?"
Bai Jun laughed, "Qianyu Lake is right under my nose, what kind of trouble can it cause? Let Huang Shu take over and set all the spirit beads, spirit shells and other spiritual objects in the lake as tribute objects. It is squeezed once every hundred years. Without these spiritual objects, Qianyu Lake Dingtian can only raise Xuanpin monsters.
But you, after receiving the inheritance from that senior, do you have anything you need for cultivation? You can bring it up, but I am also curious about how powerful the magical power passed down by the senior is. "
Chen Die bent down and saluted: "Yes, thank you for your concern, Commander-in-Chief. Although the two magical powers obtained by my subordinates are extremely ingenious, they have only scratched the surface of their understanding now. I'm afraid it will take hundreds of years to gain some insights."
Bai Yan nodded, "There's no rush, don't let your cultivation level fall. In another hundred years, we will probably be busy fighting again, so we should prepare early."
"Yes! Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for your guidance!" Chendie turned and left.
Chen Die received the magical powers from the Seven Mysteries in the ruins. Even if she understood just two magical powers, they would be enough for her to crush ordinary monsters and have unparalleled combat power.
Bai Yan has already begun to prepare for the war between the demon clan a hundred years from now. A hundred years seems like a long time, and several generations of mortals have passed away, but to a thousand-year-old demon like Bai Jun, it is just another period of time.
These hundred years are too short. He has only broken through the earth level for a hundred years, and is too far away from the heaven level. Therefore, he needs to improve his first and second battle strength to avoid being injured or even killed in the monster war.
As a demon clan, even if he is hiding in the corners of the world, he will be summoned by the power of the demon summoning flag and have to rush to participate in the war. Unless he is an old monster like Beiming Lao Kun, he can withstand the power of the demon summoning flag.
It is said that this demon summoning flag is made to imitate the demon clan's treasure Chaos Demon Summoning Banner from the upper world. Even if it only has the power to summon all the demon clan in this world, it can command all the demon clan in this world.
Bai Jun took out an elixir. This elixir is the most powerful elixir in the secret medicine garden. As long as he swallows it and refines it, it can increase his mana for thousands of years.
Of course, this kind of magic power obtained by swallowing the elixir will definitely need to be tempered multiple times before it can be perfect and will not leave any harm.
He planned to swallow the medicine. Although the name was unknown, he could judge based on his perception of the elixir and his instinctive longing for the medicine. It would be no big deal if he swallowed the medicine directly.
He needs to use this elixir to increase his mana and strengthen his strength. Although it is too late to break through to the heavenly level, the sudden increase in mana will obviously improve his strength.
In addition, Bai Jun also plans to learn about the Qiankun Umbrella to improve his magical powers, as well as the most precious short period of water of time. I am afraid that such treasures are extremely cherished in the fairy world.
How to use this small amount of time is a very important question.
While he was deep in thought, golden light flashed around him, and Zhao appeared.
"You came just in time. There is no earth-level monster in Liger Mountain now, and there are only five or six transformed monsters left. You go and take a trip and incorporate Liger Mountain into our Beifu."
Bai Jun asked Zhao.
Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Are you going to retreat again?"
"That's right. As soon as the demon summoning flag comes out, all the demons will die, and there is no way to escape. Then you will be in charge of the demon mansion, and I'm afraid I will go to the battlefield to fight." Bai Jun sighed: "You should also know, I don’t like killing people the most. It’s a pity that even a great earth-level demon can’t escape from this chess game, and he can’t help himself.”
"Oh, this is something you and I can't change. Unless I can step into the upper realm, I can have the foundation to stand on the world." Zhao shook his head, and suddenly changed his words: "By the way, I came to find you for a reason. It's important.
I think that the human incense received by the incense gods is the original divine power. Can the demon clan's belief in the gods increase their divine power? "
"Are you a divine kingdom that wants all the demons to worship and gather divine power to shape extraordinary people?" Bai Jun asked in surprise.
"That's right." Zhao nodded and said: "The Kingdom of God does not have to be the human race, and the incense does not have to be the human race! All I need is faith in living beings, and I dare not accept the faith of Taoism, Buddha, demons and ghosts."
Bai Jun was suddenly awakened by these words in his mind, and asked in surprise: "Do you want to build a heavenly palace?"
