The west.
Mount Sumeru.
When Zhunti saw that Hou Tu had consecrated the three Taoist masters of the Heavenly Way, the Hell Realm, and the Demonic Beast Way, plus the previously canonized Master of the Human Realm, he knew that Houtu had not paid attention to his invitation.
"Hou Tu is planning not to give me any authority to the West!"
Zhunti sighed silently and said.
But the matter of reincarnation authority is closely related to the teachings of Western religions, which is beneficial to Western religions in attracting followers. Naturally, he cannot give up so easily.
Now only the Taoist authority of the Hungry Ghost Path is left, and we must fight for it no matter what.
Therefore, he immediately disappeared in Mount Xumi and appeared in Mount Wudang.
Kunlun Mountains.
There was a lot of noise about Hou Tu canonizing the Taoist Master. Naturally, it could not be hidden from Yuan Shi Tianzun.
The Taoist master of Tianshen Tao that he wanted most was canonized to Zhen Yuanzi. He felt a little regretful, but he would not hold a grudge against Zhen Yuanzi because of this. After all, Zhen Yuanzi and he were also close friends.
Otherwise, the remnant soul of Hong Yun, reincarnated as Yun Zhongzi, would not have worshiped the Chan Cult.
As for the Taoist Master of the Hungry Ghost Path, he has no attraction to him.
But when he saw Zhunti going to Wudang Mountain, he didn't want this authority to fall into the hands of Western sects, so with a slight thought, he also appeared on Wudang Mountain.
At the same time, several saints from Shouyang Mountain, Jin'ao Island, and Taisutian saw the movements of Zhunti and Yuanshi and wanted to join in the fun, so they also appeared on Wudang Mountain in the blink of an eye.
Wudang Mountain.
Xuan Chen just planned to get close to Zhen Wu. After all, Turtle Spirit was considered his direct descendant, and it was his own idea to let him support the Netherworld with his four legs to gain merit and reincarnation.
There is still a lot to say.
But before he could speak, he heard the voice of Saint Zhunti.
"Fellow Taoist Houtu, please wait!"
Hearing his voice before seeing him, Xuanchen looked in the direction of the voice, but did not see Zhunti's figure.
It wasn't until a moment later that he saw the other party's figure.
But those who appeared with him were Master Xuanchen, Master Tongtian, Second Master Yuanshi Tianzun, Master Taiqing Laozi, and Saint Nuwa, the creator of the human race.
Although he guessed the purpose of Zhunti's visit, Hou Tu still asked knowingly: "Do you, fellow Taoist Zhunti, have anything to do with me? I'm still busy canonizing the Taoist masters of the five paths of reincarnation!"
When Zhunti saw Houtu, he pretended not to know, and felt a little upset.
I have sent you a greeting card, and it also stated that I would exchange a top-grade innate spiritual treasure for the authority of a master. I don't believe you can't guess my purpose.
However, he could only say with a smile on his face: "Fellow Taoist Hou Tu, could it be that he forgot the greeting card I sent before, saying that he would exchange a top-quality innate spiritual treasure for a power transaction."
In Zhunti's view, giving him a top-quality innate spiritual treasure would be more painful than cutting his flesh, and it was the greatest sincerity.
Unexpectedly, Hou Tu ignored him.
Hou Tu frowned and said with a smile: "So that's what happened, but I feel that the power of reincarnation is very important, and it needs to be handed over to the right person. The sage Taoism teaches the prehistoric era, and has already taken care of everything, but it is not suitable. "
"Even fellow Taoist Yuanshi traded with me for three top-quality innate spiritual treasures, but I didn't agree."
"In order not to lose justice, I have chosen another worthy person to assume the position of Taoist master."
"It's Hou Tu's fault that I didn't make it clear to fellow Taoist in advance. Please forgive me, fellow Taoist."
It has to be said that women are born drama queens.
Pretending to just remember it, he also said that Yuanshi Tianzun exchanged three top-grade innate spiritual treasures for it. Does this mean that you can also get one top-grade innate spiritual treasure?
Zhunti's face looked a little ugly. Compared with Lingbao, he couldn't compare with Yuanshi Tianzun.
As we all know, the West is notoriously poor.
But he was really unwilling to give up like this, so Zhunti gritted his teeth and said: "Fellow Taoist, I sincerely deal with you, why do you have to use these reasons to frustrate me? Isn't Chi You also a direct descendant of a saint and a disciple of Taoist Tongtian?" "
But as soon as he said it, Zhunti realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Houtu's face was as cold as frost, and he said: "Chiyou has the blood of my witch clan. He is the son of the great witch Quan Jiu. He is also a dedicated ghost emperor in the central government. Although he studied under Taoist Taoist Tongtian, he is fair in dealing with things. Taoist Taoist feels that Is my choice wrong?”
How should Zhunti respond?
Is it unfair to say Houtu? Wouldn't that just slap the other person in the face?
When you reach the stage of a saint, you care about very few things, and one of them is your face.
I only remembered that Chi You was a disciple of Tongtian, but I forgot that the other party also had the blood of the Wu clan.
Hou Tu is from the Wu clan, so he needs to take care of his descendants.
Although Zhunti was right, he could just think about it in his mind, but he could never say it out loud.
This will only serve to ruin the country.
Zhunti explained: "I'm sorry, fellow Taoist Houtu, I said the wrong thing..."
Hou Tu snorted coldly and ignored it.
However, Tongtian Cult Leader couldn't bear it any longer and drew out the Jietian Taoist Sword and threatened: "What, fellow Taoist Zhunti, do you have any objections to my disciples?"
Why have you forgotten the evil star Tongtian!
Zhunti was about to cry but had no tears and said: "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings..."
At this time, Saint Taiqing also came out to smooth things over and said: "Okay, we are all saints. Don't worry about one or two words, otherwise you will lose your magnanimity."
At this time, the Holy Saint also appeared here.
"My junior brother is arrogant in his words. I apologize to the two fellow Taoists on his behalf."
In fact, he didn't want to come, but seeing that his junior brother suffered a loss, and the issue of reincarnation authority was indeed more important to the West, he couldn't just sit idly by.
But now that Sanqing and Nuwa are here, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve what they want.
The saints communicated with each other. Xuanchen tried his best to downplay his presence and stood quietly next to Zhenwu.
After Jie Yin spoke, the atmosphere relaxed a lot.
However, after apologizing, Jieyin continued to say to Houtu: "Fellow Taoist Houtu, the power of reincarnation is of great importance. My junior brother is also a little impatient. I don't know if I want to obtain the position of Taoist Master of the Hungry Ghost Path. I need it in the west. What’s the cost?”
"Fellow Taoist also knows that I am poor in the West, and I cannot compare to Taoist Brother Yuanshi in terms of spiritual treasures."
"But we, the Western beings, all have a grateful heart. If we can obtain this position of Taoist Master, the Western beings will definitely remember the kindness of our Taoist friends from generation to generation, and we will definitely be richly rewarded in the future."
It can only be said that the empty-handed white wolf of the Second Saint of the West is really not capable of covering himself.
The first sentence is still talking about giving something, but the next sentence is about the poverty of the West, which makes it clear that it does not want to give anything good.
The corner of Hou Tu's mouth twitched slightly, naturally he would not believe Jie Yin's lies.
Kindness? Will it be remembered for generations?
Zhen Yuanzi and the disciples of the Second Sect of Chanjie helped you cultivate the earth veins, but I didn't see you being grateful. What kind of reward did you give me?
But Houtu did not say these words.
However, Yuanshi Tianzun would not be used to the Second Sage of the West, and said: "Huge reward? My disciples, and the disciples of the third brother's disciples helped you repair the Western earth line, but I haven't seen any generous rewards!"
Leader Tongtian rarely agreed with Yuanshi Tianzun, so he also nodded.
Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun expose their shortcomings directly like this, even though they pride themselves on being thick-skinned, their faces are a little embarrassed at this moment.
The lead immediately changed the subject and said: "My brothers and I are naturally aware of the kindness of these two disciples, and there will definitely be generous rewards in the future. Now let's talk about the power of reincarnation!"
after? I'm afraid I won't be saved by you and become some kind of Bodhisattva and Arhat!
Xuan Chen felt that he could do without this generous reward.
Houtu saw that the two Westerners were so persistent in the authority of the Hungry Ghost Dao Master, and she didn't know how to respond. After all, she didn't have a suitable candidate now, and if she refused directly, she would inevitably be jealous of the Western Second Saints.
Although she was not afraid of the two of them, she did not want to make enemies out of thin air, so she looked at Xuan Chen.
When the other people saw Hou Tu looking towards Xuan Chen, they also looked over.
He thought to himself that this boy was probably the one who suggested the canonization of the Five Dao Masters of Reincarnation. After all, the first person to be canonized was the Lieshan clan, the master of the Human World Dao, and the Emperor of Earth was taught by a disciple of the Jie Jiao.
Being stared at by several saints, Xuan Chen was also under a lot of pressure. He just wanted to watch the excitement, so why were they staring at him?
At this moment, he regretted following Hou Tu to Wudang Mountain.
He could only bite the bullet and salute the saints one by one, saying: "I have met the master, the great uncle, the second uncle, the saint Nuwa, the saint Yingyin, and the saint Zhunti. "
"That, what a coincidence!"
What a coincidence, Tongtian cursed in his heart, it was probably his disciple who caused this mistake again.
Taiqing showed a meaningful smile.
Even Yuan Shi had an aloof look on his face, as if he was saying why you are everywhere.
Nuwa even laughed unabashedly, as if she was very amused.
Xuan Chen was very embarrassed at this moment and could only say to several saints: "You continue, don't worry about the disciples, the disciples are just here to see Senior Zhenwu."
"That's right, Senior Zhenwu!"
After saying that, Xuanchen also winked at Zhenwu.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't understand, and instead looked at me with confusion.
Jie Yin went straight to the point and said: "Little friend Xuanchen, it was you who proposed the canonization of the Taoist Master to fellow Taoist Hou Tu! I wonder what price I, the West, need to pay to obtain the position of the Taoist Master of the Hungry Ghost Tao?"
Tongtian immediately snorted and said: "Fellow Daoist Jieyin, are you treating the Taoist Master of Hungry Ghost Dao as your own? What a coincidence, I, Jiejiao, also want to compete."
Yuanshi Tianzun also said indifferently: "The same goes for Chan Jiao."
Although he knew that most of Tongtian's words were angry, the power of reincarnation must not fall into the hands of Western religions. They all knew the teachings of Western religions. If reincarnation was interfered with by the other party, wouldn't everything be in chaos?
Taiqing Laozi also stood up at this moment and said: "Since the second brother and the third brother both want to compete, then I, the elder brother, can't watch."
Nuwa still had a smile on her face, as if she was just here to watch the show.
The three Qings joined forces to attack, which made Jie Yin Zhunti's face very ugly.
Jie Yin could only look at Hou Tu and asked: "Fellow Taoist Hou Tu, who do you think is more suitable for the position of the Taoist Master of the Hungry Ghost Tao?"
Hou Tu looked at Xuan Chen again.
Xuan Chen didn't expect that this question would finally be thrown to him again.
If Hou Tu were to directly hand over the authority of the Hungry Ghost Dao Master to the Sanqing sect, he would inevitably suffer the jealousy of the two Westerners.
As for giving the Second Saint to the West, that is even more impossible.
Then it can only be given to someone who has nothing to do with it. No, it should be set a condition that Western religion cannot fulfill. After all, what if the two sages of the West directly convert the law into Western religion?
The master of the human world is the Lieshan clan of the Earth Emperor. Even the two sages of the West would not dare to save him even if they had a hundred courages.
The Taoist Master of Heavenly Man Dao is Zhen Yuanzi. He has the blessing of his descendants and is on good terms with the Three Purities. He himself is still a quasi-sage with perfect cultivation, so he is not afraid.
The Taoist master of the hell path is Chi You. Although his cultivation level is the lowest among the Tao masters, the two sages of the West want to make a mistake and see if Houtu, Jumang and Tongtian can defeat them.
The Taoist master of the Monster Beast Dao is a true martial artist and a black turtle from the North Sea. He has the great cause and effect to support the Netherworld. He has the perfect cultivation level of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal. He also has some friendship with Taoist Ancestor Hongjun, so there is no problem.
There is currently no suitable candidate for the Hungry Ghost Dao Master, so it would be better to leave him vacant for the time being.
But the reason left the Second Sage of the West speechless.
Xuan Chen pondered for a moment and said: "If the saints are still at a stalemate, why not listen to this kid's thoughts."
"The Hungry Ghost Path is one of the five paths of reincarnation, and the master of the Hungry Ghost Path also belongs to the authority of the Earth. Several of them are saints of the Heavenly Dao, so it is somewhat inappropriate to argue over this."
"I once heard Empress Houtu say that there should be six saints in the tunnel. Now there are only three saints, Houtu Jumang and my master. Even if we add Senior Zhen Yuanzi and Senior Zhenwu, two people recognized by the tunnel, there are still three saints. There’s still one vacancy.”
"Therefore, why not put aside the position of Taoist Master of the Hungry Ghost Dao for the time being, and hand over this authority to whoever can be promoted to a Saint of the Earth. This seems fair, how about it?"
This proposal is indeed fair, but Qingyin Zhunti secretly thought, if our Western religion can produce another saint, would I still care about you, the authority of the Hungry Ghost Realm?
Unless the three religions of Ren, Chan, and Jie are united, they Western religions will not be afraid at all.
Leader Tongtian nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's very good."
He didn't really want to compete for this position anyway.
Yuanshi Tianzun also nodded slightly and said: "Yes."
If he is not a Taoist master of the Way of Heaven and Humanity, it will be of little use to him to teach him.
Taiqing also smiled and said: "Good."
Hou Tu looked at the Second Sage of the West and said, "I think this is a good idea. It just depends on whether any of the Taoist brothers' disciples can become authentic saints. What do the two Taoist brothers think?"
Do we think it works? The Second Saint of the West secretly cursed.
But Jie Yin still smiled and said: "Since Taoist Fellow Later Tu thinks this proposal is good, then let's do it!"
Now that things have come to this, what else can be done?
