Chapter 362: Flood destroys the world, and the King of Qi is killed by sword
Li Daoxuan coughed and said, "Your Majesty, please hold back your killing intent for now. I will kill you later after I get more information."
He secretly complained in his heart that the Li Tang Dynasty did create a prosperous era, but the royal ethics have always been criticized. He didn't know if it was inherited through blood, but there were always emperors who liked the women of their fathers or brothers.
Li Shimin took his brother's wife as his concubine, and later his son Li Zhi married his father's woman, who was also the famous empress Wu Zetian in later generations.
It was even more extraordinary during the reign of Li Longji, who married his daughter-in-law Yang Yuhuan. You know, Yang Yuhuan had been married to Shou Wang Li Mao for five years at that time...
Li Daoxuan did not want to get involved in the mess of the Li Tang royal family. He looked at Li Yuanji and asked, "You said that Moro often met you in your dreams, but did he ever tell you what the purpose of this arrangement was?"
This is a question that has been lingering in Li Daoxuan's mind for a long time.
He has fought with the Moro Sect many times over the years. Pan Dan released the dragon in Hongzhou, and Moro laid out his plan for Longhu Mountain. Now he has intervened in Chang'an, attempting to make Li Yuanji a puppet emperor.
What is all this for?
I thought Li Yuanji might not know about this, but I didn't expect that he actually knew it!
"The leader's goal... is to become the only true Buddha in the world."
Li Daoxuan's eyes fixed, and waves arose in his heart.
"The old gods are dead, and the leader wants to take over. He wants everyone to believe in the Moruo religion and worship him as the only true Buddha!"
"For this reason, the leader ordered Pan Dan to release the dragon, attempting to use the dragon to control the water veins of the world, and then stir up the water of the four seas and flood the world!"
These words were like thunder, causing Li Daoxuan and others to tremble in their hearts.
What a big move! The other party actually wants to create a devastating flood that will sweep across the world. Is this going to destroy the world?
That’s not right. If all the people in the world died, what would be the meaning even if he became the only true Buddha? Can a Buddha who no one believes in still be considered a Buddha?
Suddenly, Li Daoxuan's mind moved, and he had a flash of inspiration, as if he understood Moro's plan.
Sure enough, Li Yuanji's voice continued to sound.
"The leader said that people will only devote their purest faith when facing life and death. When the flood destroys the world, only those who worship Mara devoutly can survive!"
Li Chunfeng's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "What a big move, what a terrible method!"
Li Shimin's eyes were filled with coldness and murderous intent.
If that Moro really did it, then who would the people of this world belong to?
I'm afraid that even he, the emperor, would have to obey orders. Even Moro's words could decide the ownership of the throne, making the divine power far superior to the royal power!
Because by then, not only the common people, but also the civil and military officials, as well as the army under Li Shimin, would probably believe in Mara!
This thief intends to steal our country!
It is easy to explain Moro's plotting against Longhu Mountain and the Li Tang regime. These are the two hardest nuts to crack. If they can be leveled or used for one's own benefit, it will undoubtedly be twice as effective with half the effort.
As for the Lady in Green, she has an indifferent personality and focuses her energy on the underworld, rarely interfering in the human world. In addition, she has a high level of cultivation and has reached the realm of immortals and gods, making her more difficult to deal with than the old Heavenly Master, which makes Moro afraid of her.
But Li Daoxuan suspected that the reason why Moro wanted to win over the Empty-bellied Ghost King and the Black Mountain Old Demon to join the sect was perhaps to use them to restrain the Queen Mother, and then deal with the Queen Mother after completing his plan.
After all, Mara wants to be the only god or Buddha in the world.
Li Chunfeng stepped forward and asked, "Who are the members of the Moro Sect and where is their base?"
This is a very important issue. After learning about Moro's plan, both Li Shimin and Li Chunfeng had regarded him as a very terrible enemy.
We must fight back immediately and nip the crisis in the bud!
"I only know some of them. They are the Snake Fairy Pan Dan, the Fox Fairy Tu Shanshi, the Ghost King Xu Du, the Demon King Heishan, and in addition, there is a deputy leader, but I don't know his name or identity."
When he heard these names, Li Daoxuan's eyes flashed. Sure enough, the Black Mountain Old Demon had also joined the Moro Sect.
But unfortunately, Li Yuanji only knew these four names, three of which were already dead.
"What about the stronghold? Does the Moro Cult have a stronghold?"
Li Yuanji's dull expression fluctuated slightly.
"Yes, when I first started practicing the Immortal Eye Technique, I stayed there for a while. There were many children and demons there, and they were training those children..."
Li Daoxuan was a little excited. It was a great gain. He didn't expect that Li Yuanji actually knew the stronghold of the Moro Sect!
That should be the place where the Moro religion trains its followers. After all, if Moro wants to spread his faith throughout the world, it is not enough to rely on a few Yangshen masters; he also needs many loyal followers.
If he wanted to train and cultivate those children, Moro would definitely send masters from the sect to teach them, and he himself would even appear in person to review them from time to time.
If we can take down this stronghold, even if we can't kill Moro, we can at least break his wings and seriously injure his vitality!
The most important thing is that this is also the task assigned to Li Daoxuan by the old Taoist priest. One of the purposes of his coming to Chang'an this time is to find the lair of the Moro Sect!
But under the expectant gazes of the three, Li Yuanji suddenly stopped, with a look of pain in his eyes, and said, "Where is it? Where is it? I clearly remember it, but why is there nothing there?"
Li Daoxuan's gaze became even deeper, attracting Li Yuanji's attention like a black hole.
"Don't be impatient. Think about it carefully. What is that place called?"
He tried to use his magical powers to awaken the other party's erased memories.
Obviously that place was very important. In order to prevent it from being leaked, the place name in Li Yuanji's mind was erased.
But the passing of geese leaves traces, the passing of wind leaves sounds. Unless the soul is erased, the erasure of memory is only temporary. If one cultivates to a certain extremely high level, even the memories of past lives may be awakened.
Even reincarnation cannot completely erase a person’s memory, let alone Moro?
As expected, under Li Daoxuan's guidance, Li Yuanji's emotions became calmer, and a look of reminiscence appeared in his eyes.
"It seems... there are bell sounds... and chanting..."
After thinking for a moment, Li Yuanji suddenly got a shock and shouted, "I remember, that's where..."
Just as he was about to reveal the place name, Li Yuanji's left eye suddenly burst open, and blood spilled all over the ground. The severe pain made him break free from Li Daoxuan's illusion control and he regained consciousness briefly.
And as the last left eye disappeared, the backlash of Li Yuanji's practice of "The Art of Immortal Eyes" finally broke out completely. His body collapsed in the first instant, and cracks appeared on it like broken porcelain.
Even his soul began to be shattered!
Facing death, the former King of Qi was not afraid, but laughed and said mockingly: "You will never know where that place is. Although I am dead, the leader will definitely help me avenge!"
"The leader will definitely help me get revenge!"
There was a hint of fanaticism in his voice, like that of the most devout believer.
"Hmph, White Dragon!"
A cold light flashed in Li Daoxuan's eyes. The next moment, the White Dragon sword thread suddenly contracted. The sword thread was as thin as a cicada's wing and as sharp as a hair tip. It smashed Li Yuanji into pieces before his body was broken. The Lingran sword intent completely wiped out his soul.
The sword thread turned back into a white dragon sword, which was as white as jade and glowed with a flawless light, without even a trace of blood on it.
Feeling the "Book of Exorcising Demons" in his mind shining brightly, Li Daoxuan sneered in his heart, even if you are going to die, you have to die in my hands, otherwise wouldn't all these days have been in vain?
