Although the death of an ordinary saint disciple is not a big deal compared to today's battle, for some reason, all the immortals present were a little frightened.
Perhaps Taibai Jinxing was too understated when he took action;
Or maybe the killing was too sudden, without any warning and without any room for maneuver.
The heart-piercing lock given by the Tongtian Cult Leader is actually so powerful.
As if nothing had happened just now, Li Changshou continued to ask with a faint smile:
"What do you think of my previous proposal?"
Western The immortals dare to be angry but dare not speak out.
Several saints personally looked at Guangchengzi, but at this time, Guangchengzi had closed his eyes to rest and stopped talking.
From the perspective of the informal alliance between the two parties, Chanjiao's intervention to protect them today is the utmost benevolence.
And they are alive at this time only because there are two saints standing behind them...
No, that's not right.
Jie Jiao will not kill them at this time, and more importantly, they will be bound by the oath of heaven, and they will no longer pose a threat to Jie Jiao.
If the Western Church wants to take revenge in the future, the only way to do it is through the saint himself.
This means that the oath of heaven cannot restrain the saint, otherwise today, I am afraid it will be a different situation.
"What."
Li Changshou asked with a smile: "You have no backbone, why can no one answer?"
"Alas..."< /p>
Kasyapa, the disciple of the Western Sect, slowly exhaled, suppressed his injuries, stood up and took two steps forward, cupped his hands to Li Changshou, and still had a faint smile on his lips.
It’s just that this smile is quite bitter.
He said slowly:
"The calamity that my Lingshan suffered today is not the fault of others. It is the calamity that Lingshan should have suffered.
My Lingshan today. The hardships I suffered today were not caused by others. They were the hardships I suffered in Lingshan. I and my uncle worked hard to prosper the West, doing nothing wrong, and doing nothing wrong.
The reason for the mistake is that in ancient times, the strong was respected, and the exploitation of the weak by the strong was never said to be wrong. Today, Taoists push heaven and establish order, in the name of protecting the weak, and destroy the strong.
Today, when Taoism attacks, it is just to use force to suppress the weak.
All the great religions in ancient times. The great clans of dragons, phoenixes, lichs, all respect the order of strength and weakness. Our Western religion is not as cruel as the lichs, and is not as arrogant as the dragons and phoenixes. The reason for our failure is the lack of strength.
Does that sect also violate the way of heaven? What do you mean?
Which gate can really be saved in this catastrophe?
Is it because you have too many karma or is it because there is no way to control the luck of Jie Jiao? , are you not favored by Heaven?"
After Kasyapa finished speaking, the smile on his lips became even stronger and he stared at Li Changshou.
Smoke filled the sky and the earth was misty.
Many Taoist immortals wanted to refute Kassapa’s words out loud, but when the words came to their lips, they felt that Kassapa’s words had some truth to them.
Many of the immortals in Jiejiao lost all the joy and excitement after destroying the West and eradicating the great trouble. Instead, they fell into some kind of entanglement, and all of them frowned.
Li Changshou sighed slightly in his heart.
There are some capable people in Western teachings, and the direct disciples they have received are not good at all.
Unfortunately, at this time, Kasyapa's mentality was confused and he lost his sense of proportion. After half a circle, he came to the conclusion that a Taoist sect would also be buried by the way of heaven.
At this time, to the ears of Taoist disciples, it was really unconvincing, more like venting anger and being cruel.
It adds a bit of sadness.
Kasyapa said: "Taibai Xingjun, do you have any objections?"
"No, what fellow Taoist said makes sense."
Li Changshou nodded slowly , "My Taoist friend's theory has a very good warning effect on our later work in heaven.
Does Western religion have anything else to say?"
Kasyapa His face was a little grim, but the faces of the disciples of the Western Sect were still as gray as before.
Li Changshou waited for a while and said with a smile: "In that case, why don't you all start making vows."
The Western congregation was silent.
Li Changshou waited for a while, and the smile on his lips gradually faded. He frowned and looked at these Western believers who seemed to be trying to buy time, and shook his whisk slightly.
A jade-colored stream of light flew out from Yunxiao's sleeve, and behind Li Changshou, it turned into the shadow of a jade statue hundreds of feet tall;
The jade statue raised its arm and aimed at Lingshan Main hall.
Li Changshou's voice came, still so leisurely: "Do you want to make an oath to heaven?"
There was silence between heaven and earth.
Li Changshou nodded, and the lifeless eyes of the jade statue behind him suddenly glowed with purple-red light. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth surged again, and colorful rivers of spiritual energy appeared on the back of the jade statue again...
p>
Fairy Yunxiao looked at Li Changshou's paper Taoist, a little hesitant to speak.
She should have done these things.
"Li..."
Kasyapa closed his eyes with some pain, "We make a vow of greatness!"
Li Changshou shook his fly whisk, and the jade jade behind his back The image immediately stopped gathering spiritual energy.
A piece of cloth flew out of Li Changshou's sleeve and headed towards the Lingshan Hall.
Li Changshou returned to his squinting smile. Standing among the immortals, he seemed not to exist, not to stand, and unknown to others.
He quietly felt that the power of the catastrophe between heaven and earth had faded by about 20%.
At this time, a paper Taoist specially hovered outside the ends of the earth, using the method of looking at the Five Continents of the Wilderness, and saw that the Sword of Great Tribulation had shrunk by two circles.
This is the outstanding contribution made by Western religion...
Li Changshou’s paper Taoist took a small notebook and kept calculating, and finally came up with a handicap.A figure that he felt was somewhat acceptable.
Based on the number of masters lost in today's battle at Lingshan, and calculating the corresponding extent of the decline of the power of the catastrophe, the power of the catastrophe has completely dissipated, and 60% of the 'total strength' needs to be cut off and taught directly.
The so-called total strength is actually a vague value.
The specific meaning is that the death of one Daluo is equivalent to the death of ten golden immortals. Each individual living creature represents a different power of living beings.
Sixty percent is actually acceptable.
This value was originally close to 80%, which meant that the Jiejiao side was almost completely wiped out, or that the Chanjiao side was completely wiped out and the Jiejiao side was mostly killed or injured.
If we look back, it was because of the Western Sect’s Zhunti Saint that he couldn’t hold back his palm when he killed Lu Ya, which gave him the opportunity to drag the Western Sect into the Great Catastrophe of Deification. .
This time the oath of heaven was surprisingly short.
After all, it must be considered comprehensively. If it takes too long to make an oath, wouldn't it be a failure if the promise is made or the person is lured back?
With a muffled thunder in the sky, the sound of reciting oaths gradually disappeared from the Lingshan Hall.
Li Changshou took back the cloth, bowed to the Lingshan Hall, and said sternly:
"Thank you for giving me such a humble meal. From today on, as long as the West If you abide by your oath and do not take action against our Taoist sect, my disciple Li Changgeng will never plot against you again.
Of course, please follow the order of heaven and do not do anything evil.
p>
Heaven is watching you and me.”
After saying that, the jade statue behind Li Changshou turned into a stream of light and retracted into the palm of the sky, looking at the envious eyes of the Jie Jiao immortals. , was taken back into his sleeve by Yunxiao.
All the Western disciples in the hall were silent and opened a simple formation, as if they did not want to say another word.
"It's a pleasure," Lu Yue said with his hands behind his back, his old face full of relief, "Today, I am really happy!"
Jie Jiaoxian opened his mouth to make some post-war declarations, The momentum is high and there is mutual unity.
Chan Jiaoxian already wanted to retreat, Guangchengzi bowed his hand to Li Changshou, turned around and left...
"Senior Brother Guangchengzi."
Li Changshou called out to Guang Chengzi in a warm voice, and all the immortals also stopped.
The focus once again returned to Li Changshou’s Paper Taoist.
Guang Chengzi smiled and said: "Junior Brother Chang Geng, do you have any other advice?"
"I don't take the advice seriously. I just have a few words to give to senior brother. Naturally, I also have to give Senior Sister Jin Ling warned."
Li Changshou deliberately showed a bit of a wry smile, cupped his hands at Guang Chengzi and Jin Linggong, and said earnestly: "Senior Brother, Senior Sister, next time. If something like this happens again, please don’t call me back.
I am now an immortal god in heaven, too close to the way of heaven, and a person who is the master of great tribulations.
< p>According to the will of heaven, I should treat the Western, Jie, and Chan religions equally. Today, I can directly target the Western religion, which can be regarded as fair and honest.The main reason why we are so biased is because Western teachings are not strong enough and have too many problems.But from now on...
The great catastrophe is already a domestic matter within the Taoist sect. It is not appropriate for me to take sides. I can only temporarily put the position of the immortal gods in heaven over that of the Taoist sect disciples. position.
I also ask all brothers and sisters to be considerate and considerate. ”
Li Changshou made bows to all directions.
Most of the immortals from the Chan and Jie sects returned the courtesy, and some people advised Li Changshou not to worry.
The fierce and beautiful face of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit finally showed a little smile, and said with a smile:
"Junior Brother Chang Geng, you don’t have to worry. From today on, I, the Jie Jiao Immortal, will not wander around in the wilderness. , will actively avoid conflicts with fellow Taoists who explain the teachings. "
The word "fellow Taoist" bites quite hard.
Guangchengzi also said: "Under the great catastrophe, everything has variables, and the road ahead may not only be murderous." ”
After saying this, Guangchengzi bowed to the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit.
The immortals of the Chan Cult each had their own feelings, and under the example of the Twelve Golden Immortals, they all They bowed to the Jie Jiao Immortal.
On the Jie Jiao Immortal side, Yunxiao returned the salute first, and most of the Jie Jiao Immortals also returned the salute sparingly.
Li Changshou smiled upon seeing this. He smiled, raised his hand to take a picture of a big green-haired dog huddled directly under the Lingshan Hall, turned over, rode up, and said:
"The little god is gone. ”
Na Di Ting cheered up, endured the previous fear, held his head high, raised his chest, green flames sprouted from his feet, and carried Li Changshou towards the sky.
Looking at the back of the old immortal, it looks slightly curled and illusory, and there seems to be thousands of charms on it, and it seems to be just an ordinary old man.
The Golden Spirit Mother made a gesture, and the Jie Jiao Immortal transformed. The stream of light led out a long river in the sky, heading towards Nanbuzhou.
Guangchengzi said, "Let's go" and returned to the original path of the immortals, but this trip was in vain.
After all the immortals went back, a blue true flame suddenly ignited all over the half of the Lingshan Mountain, specifically burning the remaining souls and corpses, even the fragments of Daluo Jinxian's corpse. It can be burned out quickly by this true flame.
There are more and more green flames, and the sound of mourning can be heard from the sky and the earth, and there is a killing of the ancient masters in a radius of 100,000 miles. Seeing this situation, most people couldn't help but sigh.
This spiritual mountain, which had done many evil deeds in the ancient times and had once become a hiding place for ferocious beasts due to the protection of the two saints, was destroyed like this. .
At this time, the two Western saints have not yet returned, and their whereabouts are not known. I don’t know if they will go crazy and start a saint war when they come back.
Probably not.
Looking at the past glory of the Western religion, it was originally unknown in ancient times. After the decline of the monster race and the rise of the human race, the Western religion became more and more popular due to the increasing scale of the human race. The method of merit and virtue
Start to collect evil beasts and monsters to cleanse their karma and benefit themselves.For personal use;
Started to rely on the Incense Kingdom and its own teachings to establish one after another Incense Kingdom to consolidate its own teaching fortune.
By the time they decided to annex the Dragon Clan, they had reached the peak of their power.
Although the forces in the open did not dare to confront the Taoist sect, the 'army' collected secretly was quite terrifying.
Then, how did they turn around?
Looking at the axis of time, we can see an obvious mark.
The eye of the East China Sea was broken.
Li Changshou missed a move in chess, and the Jade Emperor's pure meritorious golden body jumped into the sea to block the eye. The dragon clan returned to heaven, and the Western religion and heaven were pushed to the opposite side.
The arrogance of the Western religion and the weak start of Heavenly Court made them make a series of fatal judgments -
[The conflict between Heavenly Court Daxing and Western Daxing must be suppressed. 】
Before, the thinking of Western religion was like this——
[If Taoism doesn’t get out of the way, how can the West prosper? How to get great luck? 】
And the deepest encouragement——
[The saints of Western religions become saints based on their great aspirations. If the West cannot prosper, they may be suppressed by the law of heaven. 】
These three principles are the ‘source power’ that Western religion will never return to.
But if you look back carefully, you can see that the Western Sect has encountered a series of stumbling blocks along the way, and there is a bright name engraved on the stumbling blocks.
Poseidon, Water God, Taibai Jinxing, and Taiqing disciple Li Changgeng.
The strategizing place Zang was defeated by him;
Xu Bodhi, who was hiding his cleverness, was defeated by him;
Maitreya, who shouted that it would be good to be happy, was He was forced into the battle of Lingshan's destruction, and he didn't even dare to show his face.
Smashing down the gate of the Western religion, destroying the great fortune of the Western religion, and forcing the Western saints to put down their dignity several times, so that later on, the dignity of the Western saints became a joke, and their majesty was lost...
If everything could happen again, there would be a veteran in Western religions who would stand up, yell at the high-spirited Ksitigarbha at the top of his lungs and with sincerity:
'Why did you mess with him? ’
……
Half a day later, the Netherworld Reincarnation Tower.
Di Ting was lying under the screen on the side, Ksitigarbha sat behind the windowsill with a gloomy face, and Li Changshou’s Paper Taoist stood by the bookcase on the top floor of the Samsara Tower, holding a Western religious scripture and reading it with gusto. With.
As Di Ting's big eyes looked this way and then that, a strange thought came to his mind.
‘Ah, it would be great if the master were a fairy. '
"Why don't you punish me?"
Ksitigarbha murmured, "Nine out of ten Lingshan Mountains will survive, and the West will never have a chance to rise again. Li Changshou, you really have won." "
Li Changshou's paper Taoist replied without raising his head: "It's too early to talk about winning or losing at this time. Your two teachers may not have considered this scene."
Ksitigarbha remained speechless, closed his eyes and sighed slowly.
"Then why don't you take the opportunity to remove my hat as the Lord of the Reincarnation Tower? This can also break the foundation of the destiny of the Western religion."
"You are the supplement of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. If I If you are offended by this matter, it will be a public revenge."
Li Changshou smiled, put the scripture in his hand back in the bookcase, and picked up another one with his fingers.
Peeping wantonly at the practice of Western teachings.
Li Changshou smiled and said: "Besides, I expected you to go to Lingshan; you also have a conscience, which is much better than your senior brother.
Forget it this time, it is human nature. I will go back and intercede for you in front of His Majesty the Jade Emperor, and you will be spared this punishment."
Ksitigarbha remained silent, with a little thought flashing in his eyes. , and after a while he asked softly:
"Is the dispute over interpretation irreversible?"
"Yes," Li Changshou's smile subsided, and he held the After Wen put it back in place, Shi Shiran walked to Di Zang and sat down casually.
Li Changshou closed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "No matter what I do, I can't resist the power of heaven.
The Tao Sect has reached its peak long ago, and there is only one way to decline.
p>
The saddest thing is that looking at the prehistoric times, Heaven cannot arrange an enemy for the Taoist sect. It can only let the Taoist sect fight among itself.
The West, Ran Deng, and you and me are just nothing. It’s just a pawn for the way of heaven to weaken the power of living beings.”
“You still have the way of balance.”
“This is all for later,” Li Changshou asked: “The same is true of one’s own way. Can a living being, a living being, really be able to compete with heaven and earth?" Ksitigarbha thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be possible."
"Yes, no."
Li Changshou murmured, leaning against the wall under the window, closing his eyes as if falling asleep.
Ksitigarbha turned his head and stared at Li Changshou's figure, sighed slowly, and the hatred in his eyes gradually dissipated.
Everyone has their own position, but in fact there is no resentment.
If we forget for a moment that we are rivals, this guy’s journey will not be easy.
Ksitigarbha was slightly lost in thought for a while.
After a while, he straightened his face and asked coldly:
"Do you want to sleep here? Do you want to practice again? You are not welcome in my Samsara Tower!"
"Keep your voice down, it's not like you can't hear me!"
Li Changshou gritted his teeth and replied, opened his eyes and said: "I was chatting with my Jiayun, and finally got some atmosphere. What are you arguing about?"
Ksitigarbha:...
"Huh! Addicted to beauty!"
"I do."
Li Changshou curled his lips and said, "Titing becomes a girl and dances for your master."
Titing's face and hair turned red immediately, he hesitated for a long time, and used the transformation technique... …
“That’s right,” Li Changshou frowned and looked at Diting.
This guy, female or male?
