On the boundary between Chishui and Wenhe rivers, isolated islands tower into the clouds for eternity.
Samsara looked at Zhong Ye in front of him and said hoarsely, "I didn't expect that in the battle between Tianwai Tian and in the end, you actually merged with the remnant soul of Mo Chuyang. In the past, I saved you and brought you here to guard the entrance to the Emperor of Heaven's treasure house, but you didn't You told me about Mo Chuyang, but you have concealed it until now. Could it be that it was just for this day?"
Zhong Ye's face was silent. Today, in addition to the two demigods Samsara and Ling Jiuquan, there is also a Taoist Zhuangzi Huizi who has appeared here. Although the other person has never been seen by himself, he just heard that Zhuangzi said he is from Tianjimen. People made him feel despair.
Wuying Sect is the most famous Taoist sect in later generations. Zhongye knows too many inside stories, especially about the Taoist lineage. The two people who come here can be said to be the originators of Taoism. Even if they have the cultivation level of Taiqing Realm, they can The Tao taught is still under the protection and inheritance of the two gods, and all methods are unified.
"Don't say you don't know. I didn't even tell him clearly about the time. When I was fighting Mo Chuyang's life and death in Tianwaitian, I thought I had killed him, but I never thought that when I fell into the mountains and seas, He secretly fostered a trace of his remnant soul in my body, and over the years, he has been healing his soul with the spiritual power of the Heavenly Emperor's treasure house, and he has slowly awakened in my body." Zhong Ye said truthfully.
Samsara looked at Zhong Ye with complicated eyes, but his face was expressionless. After Liuli became the first true god in the God Realm in later generations, Zhong Ye was the most promising person to be promoted to the second person in the God Realm, but it was a pity that he was not born. At that time, the demon from outside happened to attack. Before Zhongye could take that step, he was severely wounded by the demon in the sky.
But the current appearance, things have changed and people have changed, it is really ironic and sad.
"So? You two become one, and you agree to Mo Chuyang's conditions and want to destroy this Heavenly Emperor's treasure house?" Ling Jiuquan said with a sneer.
Zhong Ye glanced at Ling Jiuquan. This Xuanming Heavenly Python was from the prehistoric period. When he saw him, he was still an unknown young man beside Liuli. Thousands of years later, he didn't expect that he had already possessed the level of a demigod. From this point of view, the entire Beishanjing should be under his command.
"So what?" Zhong Ye replied calmly.
A trace of gloom flashed in Ling Jiuquan's eyes. He stood up and said angrily, "Zhongye, fortunately you are still the previous sect leader of the Wuying Sect. Now you are colluding with the demon outside and want to harm my people of the demon clan. Do you really think that Don’t I dare to do anything to you?”
Zhong Ye was unmoved, still calm and calm, and said, "With your current ability, it is not impossible to kill me, but do you think killing me can prevent the invasion of the alien demons? Or is it the coming of heavenly calamity? You, Ling Jiuquan, can act alone to save your demon clan from danger?"
Ling Jiuquan was startled, and then Zhong Ye's words sounded in his ears again.
"This time the heavenly demon invaded, it was completely different from three thousand years ago. The first heavenly tribulation came because the Emperor God was there and successfully killed their peerless demon, which caused their vitality to be severely damaged. But this time things were different. Beyond our imagination, in the Land of Demons, another new king is born, and he will lead the twelve lieutenants of Demons to conquer our mountains and seas again. How can we compete with each other at that time?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a complete silence, and even the three Taoists fell into deep thought.
Zhong Ye continued, "These are all the things I learned when Mo Chuyang and I became one. Back then, I was able to die in battle in the outer world. How could I betray this world now? Everything I did was in the world. To save the building from collapse and save the people from the fire, I have reached an agreement with Mo Chuyang. When the demon army takes over this place, he and I will become the masters of the world. By then, the people of the mountains and seas will not have to suffer the pain of life and death. Why is it wrong?"
Ling Jiuquan's knuckles were trembling slightly. He pointed at Zhong Ye and wanted to curse angrily. It can be seen that he looked calm and fearless. He already understood that Zhong Ye had already made up his mind and the argument with his words was meaningless.
Samsara shook his head and said, "The alien demons are alien species. If they want to invade our mountains and seas, they will be excluded even if their bodies are broken into pieces and the planet falls. As a group with a common destiny of our mountains and seas, we, the immortal and demon worlds, will once again When attacked by foreign enemies, we should all put aside grudges and prejudices, unite against the outside world, and defend our mountains and seas."
Zhong Ye was stunned for a while, then firmly shook his head and said in denial, "Sir Samsara still doesn't distinguish the priorities of things. What I mean is that there is a new king in the land of demons, which means that a new peerless demon will come to our mountains and seas." Five Classics, who can stop me when the time comes?"
Samsara was silent.
Ling Jiuquan was also hesitant.
As for Zhuangzi Huizi and the successor of the Tianji Sect, their faces were full of sadness, but there was no fear or panic at all.
"From the perspective of today's monks in the two realms, no one can stop the peerless demon. After all, there were emperors and countless extraordinary gods in ancient times, but now there are only a handful of gods. If the new king of the demon brings twelve The first officer is about to commit an attack, and our chances of winning are extremely slim." After a moment, Zhuangzi stepped forward, smiled leisurely, and said slowly.
Zhong Ye, who had always been calm and unfazed, his face turned rosy for no reason when he heard what Zhuang Zi said. He said excitedly, "Does Zhuang Zu also agree with what Xiao Dao said?"
Zhuangzi shook his head and said truthfully, "Different Taoisms do not conspire against each other. Although you and I are of the same lineage of Taoism, what we should do and what we should not do are contradictory theories. Naturally, I will not advise you to do anything if you follow your Taoism. I am here." I just want to keep Mo Chuyang, after all, this guest refuses to leave. As the guardians of the world, we Taoists will be blamed if something goes wrong."
Zhongye soon fell into despair. He laughed at himself and said, "There is a way in the world, but horses are like dung. There is no way in the world, and soldiers and horses are born in the suburbs. No crime is greater than excessive desire, no blame is greater than desire for gain, and no disaster is greater than ignorance. Sufficient. Therefore, knowing what is enough is always enough. Zhuang Zu did not follow the path of being free and happy, and in the end he will not be able to follow the path passed down by my ancestor."
Zhuangzi said softly "Oh" and said, "The greatest harm is not being satisfied, and the greatest fault is greed. Is contentment the way you want? Do you think seeking perfection means contentment? Give in without fighting. The best strategy is to use human troops? Is it enough to abandon the long-standing inheritance of our mountain and sea culture and be willing to become an alien of another race and live an ignoble existence? "
Keiko on the side was full of energy and looked quite serious while holding a sword in her arms.
"What is inaction? We should comply with the way of heaven, enter the world with action, and cultivate our mind with inaction. No matter which way we practice, since we come to this world, we should cultivate ourselves and establish our lives, and protect our family and country as our own responsibility. This is The foundation of practicing enlightenment is, if we cannot even survive the home we live in, how will our skin grow back and our hair grow back?" Zhuangzi said cautiously.
"Isn't that what I did? After the invasion of the demon from outside three thousand years ago, I, the Taoist family, became the guardian of the mountains and rivers here. Our entry and exit into the world are all under our every move. Since the demon has come back this time, and we Since we are not sure of victory, why can't we seek perfection and survive? Is it possible that all our people in the mountains and seas will die in battle and become a colonial world of demons?" Zhong Ye asked back.
"If this is the case, it will be a disaster for our mountains and seas. We will continue to strive for self-improvement, and we will naturally live and die together."
"Different road non-phase plan."
"Zhongye, the demons have very broad plans. We don't know what they want when they come to attack in large numbers. However, the entire universe is a system where all things interact with each other and are connected to each other. It is definitely not just us where they are doing this. How happy is life? , there is nothing to be afraid of in death. If we just succumb to the evil power of the devil, for hundreds of years, thousands of years, ten thousand years, do you think that even if there are traces of our monks on this mountain and sea, you will still feel that the living people are still the same. How does it look?"
Zhong Ye was shocked, but he didn't say anything. He just sighed softly and murmured, "Wouldn't it be nice to be alive?"
Living, as long as you can live, is better than everything.
Living may be simple, but how to live has become a problem for countless people.
Zhuangzi shook his head and then looked at Huizi. The latter understood the idea and was about to draw his sword. Suddenly, a ray of strange light suddenly appeared in Zhongye's dark eyes. The strange light radiated from the inside out, showing a whirlpool shape. , until it swallowed his entire body.
"Jie Jie, you are using your mantis as a chariot and you are overestimating your capabilities. Since I cannot catch you all today, when my army of demons conquers this world in the future, you will be wiped out with ashes and no bones left." Mo Chuyang took possession of Zhong Ye's body. , The whole person is filled with evil spirits and extremely evil.
Ling Jiuquan was already holding back a lot of anger, but when he saw that Mo Chuyang dared to speak arrogantly to his face, he flicked his finger and a wisp of Nine Nether Golden Flames quickly flew across and scratched him, but he just barely managed to contaminate it. In the end, Mo Chuyang escaped into the space out of thin air and disappeared.
Zhuangzi frowned and said suspiciously, "It seems that Mo Chuyang has recovered a lot of skills through the spiritual power of this place over the years. Just now, he has the power of space at his fingertips. He is very clever."
Samsara said softly, "The Demon of Transformation has traveled here from other planes through this method. It was expected that Mo Chuyang would realize such magical powers. Fortunately, now he and Zhong Ye are integrated into one. With Zhong Ye's temperament, They will not harm innocent people indiscriminately. As long as the demon army has not yet attacked, I guess they will not break the rules."
Zhuangzi sighed bitterly and said, "Having said that, the mountains, seas and land are now in danger. You and I should be careful. Over the years, we have been running around everywhere, trying to make up for the mountains and rivers. In order to isolate the teleportation opportunities of the four ancient formations, We have worked really hard as guardians of the sky in this life, and now that we have received such news, I really don’t know if we can still withstand it.”
Samsara was puzzled and asked curiously, "If the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism join forces with hundreds of other secluded schools of thought, will there be a chance to expel the external demons?"
Zhuangzi shook his head and said, "The three religions are bounded by five thousand years. Generations of guardians of heaven are like you. They are just maintaining the order of heaven. It's just that we need to understand our experience and cultivate our minds and nature. Compared with you, Naturally derived from it, we are far behind, not to mention that the per capita strength of the demons is far higher than that of our monks. If the home court was not here, we would have no chance of winning."
