Following Su Qing's faint scolding, the temperature dropped instantly. Everyone felt it was difficult to breathe, almost breathless. The back and neck sank uncontrollably, as if being weighed down by something heavy.
It's not a psychological pressure, it's a real feeling.
Immortal power is mighty, the sun and moon shine brightly. Such a pointed rebuke is not something that any mortal can bear.
Zhao Ji had a look of pain on his face and tried hard to keep his kneeling position motionless.
Everyone was shocked and confused. They didn't know how Zhao Ji had offended the immortal, and he was actually scolded in public like this. You know, even for people who are greedy for the tiger tooth pendant, the Immortal Lord does not show any emotion.
The Crown Prince of Wei bowed his head deeply.
He has the lowest cultivation level among everyone, and it is the most painful to bear this kind of pressure. But there didn't seem to be any surprise in his eyes, and there was even a bit of a smile on his lips.
"Zhao Ji knows he is guilty." Zhao Ji bowed his head and said, "Millions of corpses are lying there, and both humans and gods are angry. If the six relatives deny it, the world will not tolerate it."
"The merits and demerits will be judged by future generations. Justice cannot be judged on the battlefield." Su Qing said, "I am not unqualified to judge whether what you did is right or wrong."
Zhao Ji was slightly startled, but Prince Wei was not surprised.
"It seems that I am not wrong in my calculation. The Lord of Penglai still cares about that pendant. Zhao Ji tried to drop it into the abyss, so how could he not be affected by the wrath of thunder."
The Four Yin Ghost Generals were extremely anxious and wanted to ask for mercy but were unable to do so.
Zhao Ji thought for a moment and then said, "Don't cherish the things given by the Immortal Lord. If you feel that they are useless, you have to throw them into the abyss. You disrespect the Immortal Lord at the top, and you are selfish at the bottom. Zhao Ji, it is a capital crime!"
"If you give it, you give it. It's your right to deal with it how you want to deal with it." Su Qing shook his head.
"Even if you really fall into the abyss, those who are destined will take it. Whether you abandon it or respect it all comes from your heart. How can I blame you? Others seek to take it and are punished because of greed in their hearts, not the gift itself."
Those who were punished seemed to have some enlightenment, and their eyes became much calmer.
Prince Wei was surprised, but he soon felt relieved.
"The Lord of Penglai has the dignity of an immortal and will not lie to mortals. It really has no effect on where the pendant falls. However, using the pendant as a bait seems to be a fake. If someone uses the token of the East Palace, I will be angry. .”
Zhao Ji was silent for a while and said: "I used the pendant as bait and used the motto of Forty Years to set up a trap. Not only did I commit a great crime, but I also took advantage of the Immortal Lord. Such a great crime of disrespect cannot be redeemed by death. .”
Su Qing shook his head again. "As I just said, if you give it to me, it's yours. You only used the pendant itself to set up the trap, and the motto did come from my mouth. Whatever consequences arise from this are your fate, how can I blame you."
Zhao Ji was confused for a while, and Prince Wei also frowned.
If none of these three possibilities are true, why would the Immortal blame him?
"Your crime is that you underestimate your own capabilities." Seeing that Zhao Ji couldn't figure it out, Su Qing gave the answer directly. "Using a mortal soul to drive away the spirit of the White Tiger is truly audacious. Fortunately, the White Tiger's will has not been fully awakened, otherwise you would have been doomed."
The evil spirit of the white tiger is very strong, and the people who are destined to it will also be miserable for the rest of their lives. But Zhao Ji's actions were equivalent to being tied to Bai Hu.
"Zhao Ji is wrong." Zhao Ji bowed again: "No matter what kind of punishment, I am willing to bear it."
"You and the white tiger have become entangled and it is impossible for me to punish you." Su Qing said, "You have been a human being for three lives, and you have been plagued by killings and calamities for life without a happy ending. You have been a beast for the fourth life, and you have been fooled and eaten by fools. If you can't bear it in any one life. , repeat reincarnation in the next life.”
Even the arrogant Prince Wei didn't dare to say anything. He pressed his body deeply to the ground, and a group of people listened to it and sucked in the cold air.
At first glance, it sounds like seven lives of suffering, three as humans and four as beasts. These alone are enough to make me shudder, let alone the more terrifying consequences. Once you can't bear it in one life, it will be like suffering from life to life.
"Of course, there is another way." Su Qing glanced at Zhao Ji. "Now let your soul disappear and completely turn into nothingness."
Everyone was silent, thinking this was better. It's all death anyway, at least it will be a happy one.
"I will not escape my sin." Zhao Ji raised his head and said after giving different choices. "I am willing to enter reincarnation and repay the karma of this life."
"good."
Su Qing was not surprised by this choice, but she was still a little pleased.
Zhao Ji's growth was unexpected, and Su Qing had more expectations. Today's questioning is a presumptuous act, but it is also a beating to give him another chance.
"The entanglement is endless, success or failure is not a matter of happiness. Once the disaster is eliminated, it is necessary to have peace and prosperity." Su Qing said to Zhao Ji: "If you survive seven lives, you may be a human or an animal. If you can find it, Due to the fate of this life, you can come to Penglai to see me."
If Zhao Ji chooses to escape, his soul will die and all the past will be settled. Since he chose to suffer in reincarnation, Penglai may be able to walk around the world for one more day.
"Thank you, Immortal Lord." Zhao Ji prostrated again.
When I stood up after praying, my body had dense cracks. Then, like a statue piled with incense ash, it quickly weathered and collapsed. A breeze blew by, leaving nothing behind.
The moment he fed the tiger with his body, Zhao Ji was already dead. Su Qing cast a spell to retain the true spirit just for the future.
After sending Zhao Ji away, Su Qing glanced at the pendant on the edge of the cliff and turned his attention to Prince Wei.
Prince Wei had already straightened up his back and was looking forward to it with confidence.
Everyone who comes to this cliff has their own destiny. From the perspective of sequence, the later they go, the more unusual they become.
Zhao Ji seemed to be suffering from reincarnation, but Prince Wei saw the mystery behind it.
Being able to go to Penglai in the seventh reincarnation means that there will be greater opportunities. As long as you can grasp it, it's probably better than the rest combined.
You can imagine the benefits of the Lord of Penglai keeping his crown prince last.
Even if there is no fairy fate, at least there can be secular fate. For example, he defeated the six countries and unified Qingzhou, achieving unprecedented hegemony.
Su Qing reached out and waved, and the tiger tooth pendant floated up. Under everyone's gaze, it fell into the hands of Prince Wei.
Prince Wei was stunned for a moment, then felt disappointed.
"That's it? Give me this?"
Prince Wei actually didn't want the tiger tooth pendant that many people dreamed of.
What he wants is dominance and more benefits. Looking at Zhao Ji's experience, we know that although his reputation is resounding throughout the six countries, it is difficult to achieve immortality.
Just when he was disappointed, a ball of green light suddenly appeared and enveloped Prince Wei. It lifted up a little and floated slowly.
"This...surely has other benefits..." Prince Wei was a little excited and couldn't help but said to Su Qing, "May I ask the Immortal Lord, what is the fate of you giving it to me?"
Most of the people looked envious and admired Prince Wei very much.
Although he is young, his mind is really powerful and he can guess the thoughts of the Lord of Penglai. They worked hard to get more pendants and got them in the blink of an eye. And it’s not just pendants, there are even better ones.
Under the envious gaze of everyone, while the prince waited expectantly. The green light held up Prince Wei, drifted to the edge of the cliff, and then began to fall slowly.
"What is this?" Prince Wei was a little panicked.
"Bai Hu's destiny is temporarily over, and he needs to wait for a new destiny." Su Qing said: "Falling to the bottom of this cliff was the last destiny's choice, and I shall fulfill his destiny."
"What does that have to do with me?" Prince Wei felt vaguely uncomfortable.
"You said before that you were willing to guard this thing and wait for the right person. I will grant you your wish." Su Qing said. "You have great wisdom and perseverance. From today on, you will stay at the bottom of the cliff with this thing and wait for the destined person."
Prince Wei's head buzzed and he almost fainted.
"I don't!!!"
…
The prince kept his promise and allowed people to guard the treasure. The person who takes it cannot reach it, and it does not leave even an inch. The sea is dry and the rocks are rotten, but it remains unmoved. Later generations said that the great Wei Dynasty had the character and integrity.
"Wei Ji"
