Kyoto.
It's noon.
The monks in the city suddenly felt something and saw five-colored auspicious clouds crossing the sky in the distance.
They all used their spiritual eyes to look far away, only to see clearly that a Taoist man was riding a bull.
The ox looked like an ordinary farmer's ox, but it took a hundred miles at a time and arrived outside the capital city in an instant. It circled twice before falling into a cave in the east of the city.
"The aura is comparable to that of the God-incarnation Heavenly Lord, why do you show off like this?"
Ordinary monks secretly despise him, but dare not say it out loud. The Heavenly Lord has a sharp ear and eyes, and will directly reward him with a thunderbolt if he encounters a small-minded person.
Some people with advanced cultivation levels saw the Taoist priest riding a bull and quickly communicated with the sect and fellow Taoists.
Officials from the imperial court who had been waiting for a long time flew into the palace in a flying light after confirming the identity of the Taoist.
Qinzheng Hall.
A ray of light fell, transforming into an old man in purple robe and official uniform, bowing to his superior, Yuan Ding Emperor.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Dongsheng Shenzhou has been spread throughout the world, and Emperor Yuanding is the first emperor of heaven, so he should be able to change his name and call himself emperor of heaven. However, at times like this, one must be cautious so as not to displease the Nuoxiang Immortal Ancestor.
"The Grand Master does not need local rituals"
Emperor Yuan Ding had a kind face, waved his hand slightly to lift up the old man, and said, "But the leaders of the three religions are coming to the capital?"
Xi Yunzi, who is the Grand Master, sensed the deep and profound magic power and showed a look of surprise. His Majesty, who was still Nascent Soul just a few days ago, has been successfully promoted to the Divine Transformation!
"Master, don't be surprised."
Emperor Yuanding seemed to have guessed the old man's thoughts, and explained with a smile: "The technique of incense and conferring gods can still help the ancestor break through the return to the void. Since I want to lead the gods, the realm of Nascent Soul is really a bit weak."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Xi Yunzi bowed and saluted again, this time with more sincerity. He was originally the ancestor of the small sect's deity. After learning about the news from the Heavenly Court, he immediately chose to join the Yuanding Emperor and held a first-class official position. It is a pity that the great sects have already controlled the official positions of real power, and Emperor Yuanding did not dare to act rashly, so he had to hold a noble and empty position.
"Your Majesty expected it well."
Xi Yunzi has been at the peak of god transformation for thousands of years, and the incense to become a god is his last chance, so he said: "It's just that he didn't come alone, he rode a yellow bull demon god, his aura is mysterious and extraordinary!"
"Teachers all say that mysterious demon gods must not be mortal."
Emperor Yuanding pondered for a moment and said: "It seems that the official who was so highly valued by the ancestor of the human immortals that he was originally conferred needs to be promoted to another level."
"Your Majesty, I will grant you as high a title as I suggest!"
Xi Yunzi said: "Rewards and real power are also given to the most qualified. As long as you can win over this person, you will have the support of the three religions. With this help, the position of the Emperor of Heaven will be unshakable."
"Just follow what the Grand Master said."
Emperor Yuan Ding nodded slightly and said, "Make him prime minister and give him the title of national master. He can supervise all officials. He will be executed first and then reported. I still need to trouble the grand master to announce the decree in person."
"Your Majesty is wise."
Xi Yunzi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Emperor Yuanding had obtained the Emperor's promise. Give birth to a proud mind.
At present, the heaven has not yet been established, and the leaders and disciples of the three religions are as noble as the illusory Emperor of Heaven. Even if they will lead the gods in the future, the immortals of the three religions can also destroy and establish them.
Got the order.
Clouds formed under Xi Yunzi's feet, he flew out of the palace and landed outside a cave in the east of the city. "Immortal Cave?"
Looking at the plaque of the cave, Xi Yunzi stroked his long beard, and he was indeed as lustful as the rumors said, and said loudly.
"Xi Yunzi, the poor Taoist master of Daheng, learned that his friend has come to the capital, and he has been ordered by His Majesty to announce the decree."
The aura of the cave formation shines, revealing an entrance.
Xi Yunzi entered directly and saw the ox lying in the yard. He took the lead slightly and said hello.
Entering the main room, he saw Zhou Yi who was sipping tea. He raised his hands and said, "I have heard about the name of the leader of the three religions for a long time, and today I finally meet him!"
Zhou Yi smiled and said, "You shouldn't praise me like this. This is a spiritual tea picked by Uncle Tea for five thousand years. I would like to ask the Grand Master to taste it."
"Five Thousand Years Spirit Tea!"
Xi Yunzi's eyes were filled with joy. He liked to taste tea, but after a lot of effort, he got a three-thousand-year-old tea branch from the ancestor of the human immortals. The spiritual tea picked after planting was already of the highest quality.
Regardless of reading out the imperial edict, he immediately sat across from him and admired Zhou Yi's natural method of making tea.
"This poor Taoist has been drinking tea for 1,500 years, and now he realizes that he is just a fake person and is several levels behind his fellow Taoists!"
"The grand master praises me greatly."
Zhou Yi poured tea for Xi Yunzi with his own hands and said, "The grand master is here today. Are you afraid that your majesty wants to reward the poor Taoist?"
"Fellow Taoist is right. His Majesty was grateful for the merits of being a god. His majesty pardoned him and made him prime minister. He also granted him the position of national master."
Xi Yunzi took a sip of the spiritual tea and praised repeatedly: "How many times in the world can I smell such spiritual tea!"
Zhou Yi had a strange look on his face. After Taizu Daheng founded the country, he did not establish a prime minister like other dynasties. Emperor Yuanding could actually violate the ancestral system, which is enough to show that Gu wanted to win over.
He took out a jade box from his cuff, opened it and found tea cakes weighing one kilogram, and said.
"The grand master liked this tea, so he drank it. The poor Taoist didn't know how to taste it, and it tasted like a cow chewing peonies!"
"so much?"
Xi Yunzi looked at the tea cakes and said with envy: "Fellow Taoist must have found a tea tree that is five thousand years old. Otherwise, every piece of such a wonderful tea is worth collecting!"
Spirit tea is different from ordinary tea. One piece can brew several pots, and it is also sold by the piece.
Zhou Yi nodded slightly, admitting that he had five thousand tea trees.
Thousands of years ago, a dozen or so plants were planted in Kunlun Cave. They were just used as decorations at the entrance of Taoist temples. After a long time, they turned into priceless spiritual objects.
Xi Yunzi put the tea cakes into his sleeves and said, "As long as fellow Taoists promise to support Your Majesty, we will use the help of heaven to help fellow Taoists become gods and become the next Emperor of Heaven."
"Pindao is not interested in being an official."
Zhou Yi shook his head and refused, saying: "I can support Your Majesty, as long as the spiritual creature returns to the void!"
"..."
The corner of Xi Yunzi's mouth twitched. The returning spirit object was different from ordinary ones. It was born from the qi of heaven and earth, and was also called an innate spirit object.
Every time it appears, it will cause great turmoil.
Not to mention the battle between gods and gods, the top human immortals will also end up fighting for it.
The last time the innate spiritual object appeared in Broken Dragon Valley, it was the innate blood lotus that was cultivated from the corpses of countless dragons. It was of great use to blood monks, and it could also increase the breakthrough probability of monks with other magic attributes by 10%.
After Xi Yunzi learned the news, he went to Broken Dragon Valley with confidence.
He glanced at it from afar, threw a few spells at random, then turned around and boasted to his disciples that he had survived a battle with three Void-Returning Immortals!
"Fellow Taoist, innate spiritual beings are hard to come by. They have not appeared publicly in the past thousand years. Perhaps they will not be born in another thousand years. How about changing to different conditions?
"I don't want to force myself!"
Zhouyi said: "As long as your Majesty makes an oath, if an innate spiritual creature appears in the future, he will take it for Pindao. If Pindao dies, this oath will be passed down to the next generation until your Majesty's life is exhausted!"
"Pindao sent a summons to discuss with His Majesty."
Xi Yunzi's spiritual consciousness is so huge that it can cover the entire capital and directly talk to Emperor Yuanding of the Qinzheng Hall.
Why Emperor Yuan Ding didn't meet with Zhou Yi? It seemed more polite and courteous, but in fact it left a buffer for negotiations. If they really couldn't reach an agreement or even fell out, Xi Yunzi would be able to take the blame if he turned around.
After a while.
Xi Yunzi said: "Your Majesty agreed, but there is a condition."
"Master, please speak."
"When an innate spiritual creature appears in the world, there must be someone who will covet it."
Xi Yunzi said: "If there are more than two immortals fighting for it, Your Majesty will not dare to interfere, and can only postpone it to the next time."
"That's natural."
Zhou Yi nodded and said: "This matter has been settled. The Pindao Association will persuade fellow disciples to help His Majesty secure his position as Emperor of Heaven!"
"In the future, I will be an official in the same palace as my Taoist friends, so I need to take more care of you."
Xi Yunzi smiled and felt that the spiritual tea was getting sweeter and sweeter. As Emperor Yuanding ascended to the throne of Heaven, he would definitely rely on casual cultivators to fight against the twelve major religions. He would be able to gain the opportunity to become a god and prolong his life.
Zhou Yi shook his head and said: "I have no intention of becoming an official. If your Majesty is willing to reward me, why not become the God of Qingyun Mountain?"
"Huh?"
Xi Yunzi's eyes flickered, and after a moment of silence he said, "Your Majesty agreed, he will issue a golden book of the Emperor of Heaven, and make fellow Taoist the Lord of Qingyun Mountain, and he will be able to pass on the title of disciple, which will never be easy."
"My Taoist fellow is so disinterested in power. Your Majesty feels guilty. He will write a seal on the back of the gold book. In the future, if any of his disciples are wronged, they can go directly to heaven!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhouyi handed over his hand in the direction of the palace. With this golden book, no matter the changes in Dongsheng Shenzhou in the future, he could hide in Qingyun Mountain to cultivate.
"Your Majesty has another question to ask."
Xi Yunzi waved his hand, set up isolation restrictions, and spit out a Bagua compass to cover up the secrets. He just said, "Do you know how this heavenly law is formulated?"
"Know a thing or two."
Zhou Yi said: "Pindao once asked three masters privately, and they all participated in the customization of Tiantiao..."
Xi Yunzi's eyes were filled with envy. Such a background was enough for him to roam the Dongsheng Shenzhou. He also used a few magic techniques to prevent outsiders from peeking into the fortune telling.
"The basic idea is that the secular returns to the secular, and the heaven returns to the heaven!" Zhou Yi said: "Under the control of the heaven, the population of Dongsheng Shenzhou has skyrocketed. If it is not controlled, it will be difficult for spiritual creatures to support the world of immortality. Therefore, there will be a rule that there will be fewer monks. Make an appearance with the world."
"This is also to promote the immortal books. Only by isolating the immortals can the value of the immortal books be realized!"
"Between immortals and mortals..."
Xi Yunzi frowned slightly: "Then how does a monk collect the power of incense and vows?"
Zhou Yi said with a smile: "All the incense will be returned to heaven. Private collection is a serious crime. The grand master also has to restrain his disciples. When the time comes, he will definitely kill a group of monks who break the rules to establish his authority!"
"This has completely ruined the casual cultivator."
Xi Yunzi was also a casual cultivator back then, and he joined the sect only after he established his foundation. He knew that it was not easy to be a casual cultivator.
Zhou Yi said: "Most of the casual cultivators I have seen over the years are unscrupulous people who seek immortality and cannot be blamed harshly. However, with the constraints of heaven, at least ordinary people will live a better life."
Xi Yunzi said: "No wonder it is a Taoist friend who presides over the conferment of gods. The poor Taoists in the world are far inferior to him!"
Zhou Yi said: "There will not be too many heavenly laws. It is just the fundamental and detailed laws of heaven that need to be drawn up by your majesty himself."
"There is such a thing!"
Xi Yunzi stood up in confusion and said, "I will leave for now and discuss the details of the heaven and earth with Your Majesty. The Qingyun Mountain Golden Book will be sent to you soon."
Zhou Yi nodded slightly, and after Xi Yunzi left, he took out the messenger seal.
After that time.
Invite friends and host a banquet.
Today I invite fellow disciple Butian to taste wine, tomorrow I invite teacher Jietian to discuss Taoism, and the day after tomorrow I have a meal with Buddhist monks to comment on scriptures.
There were also other Taoist friends from the great religion who came uninvited and saw Zhou Yi enthusiastically calling him "Elder Brother", including many of them who were transformed into gods.
"How can a poor man be so virtuous and capable that he is so sought after by all his junior fellow apprentices!"
Zhou Yi said: "I happened to encounter some demons a few days ago. I killed them all and gained countless mountains, rivers and rivers. The junior brothers can send their clan disciples to manage them, and they can share the benefits every ten years."
The longer you live, the less likely you will be caught up in being sought after.
Zhou Yi clearly knew that, except for a very small number of fellow disciples, the rest became gods because of incense.
Today they are hosting incense and canonizing gods, and they are naturally pursuing it. In the future, when heaven decides, who will care about a chess piece?
Perhaps because of the name of the leader of the three religions, he may say nice things on the surface, but secretly he is contemptuous of him. Only by realizing personal interests and benefits can he become a true Taoist friend.
Sure enough, after hearing about the Fenrun Wishful Power Bead, the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly became high.
There are at least one hundred and eighty Mountain God He Bo in the twelve Demon Lord's lairs, which is enough for most people to divide them up.
"Don't rush if it's not enough."
Zhou Yi said: "Pindao got a lot of information about the demons. We will work together to capture them. Since we are killing demons and accumulating merit, we can also gain benefits."
Everyone happily agreed, and the title of senior brother was a little more genuine.
Here they are drinking and having a party, and everyone is having a good time, but the Daheng Palace is not peaceful.
From time to time, there was the roar of spells, rolling demonic clouds, or lightning and thunder, which destroyed many palaces.
The imperial court only said that they were discussing the law with each other, and couldn't hold back for a while, so they fought in several palaces. How could this deceive an elite monk? Through the origin of magic, breath and supernatural powers, he began to speculate on who had forced his way into the palace.
Some monks who had no intention of becoming the Heavenly Emperor had strange thoughts when they saw this situation.
Emperor Yuanding can do it, why can't I do it?
This day.
A middle-aged man in python robe came to the royal blessed land and asked to see his ancestor.
"Come in."
Taizu Daheng's voice was like thunder, he opened the Blessed Land Formation, waved his hand and sucked the middle-aged man in the python robe into it.
The Imperial Family Blessed Land is more than a hundred times smaller than the Jie Tian Blessed Land. It is already the limit to support the cultivation of a Returning Immortal, and there are no other monks.
Taizu Daheng had white hair and shawl. He sat cross-legged on the stone platform. He lowered his head and glanced at the middle-aged man in the python robe. He thought for a long time before speaking.
"Are you a descendant of the Laojiu family with this bloodline aura?"
"Back to our ancestors, our ancestor is indeed King Rui."
The middle-aged man in python robe bowed and said: "The reason why I asked to see my ancestor today is for the safety of the country. If Emperor Yuanding continues to act like this, even if he takes the position of Heavenly Emperor, Daheng will cease to exist!"
"Why?"
Taizu Daheng had a cold look and lived for nearly two thousand years. Before his death, he broke through and returned to immortality. He had no feelings for his bloodline separated by hundreds of generations.
The middle-aged man said: "In order to win over the support of the great religion, Emperor Yuanding arbitrarily promised an official position in the Heavenly Court and did not manage the power belonging to Daheng at all. After he abdicates, the next Emperor of Heaven will definitely destroy Daheng!"
The Great Ancestor took the lead slightly: "It seems to make some sense..."
The middle-aged man looked happy and was about to continue talking, asking Taizu to depose Emperor Yuanding and choose another clan to inherit the throne.
"But what does it have to do with me whether Dae Eternity exists or not?"
Taizu Daheng's voice suddenly changed. He looked at the middle-aged man in the python robe with a half-smile, and said, "Uncle Twelve, it's been almost two hundred years, and I'm still not willing to let my nephew steal your throne!"
"You, you, you are..."
The middle-aged man in python robe was horrified. Before he could finish speaking, the majestic magic power crushed him into pieces.
