Chapter 724: The Truth of the Conferred God, the Land of Absolute Spirits
Nuwa looked at the bloodstains on the ground. Those were the blood and tears shed by Fuxi. They seemed messy and disorganized, but actually contained a mystery.
This is a special text that only two people can understand.
Before becoming a saint, she practiced with her brother for a long time. She once created a unique writing system out of interest and wanted to pass it on to all races, but it was too complicated and eventually came to nothing.
After Cangjie created characters and passed them on to the world, she completely forgot about this kind of writing.
However, he didn't expect that his brother had always remembered it and eventually used it to convey information.
"What my brother wants to say is that the reason our plan failed is because we lacked one person."
"Who?"
Master Tongtian asked first.
"A person who is both closely connected to this world and detached from it, and not governed by the laws of heaven."
This statement is simply self-contradictory. Since they are closely related, how can they be separated from this world? It should be understood that even immortal saints are subject to the jurisdiction of heaven.
But the saints are saints after all. Others might be confused, but they quickly deduced a solution.
More importantly, this plan does not conflict with their previous plans.
Yuanshi Tianzun sighed and said, "The Three Emperors risked their lives to calculate this hexagram, which is great. We should not care about our lives. Regardless of success or failure, we must give it a try."
The two saints from the West looked at each other and nodded.
"We, the Western Church, are willing to participate in this plan and give up the position of Buddha and all the fortune of Buddhism to help fellow Taoists achieve success."
“Not enough.”
The Saint Taiqing shook his head and sighed: "It also has to take into account the destiny of the human world. After 30,000 years, Ziwei will be allowed to enter the world as an emperor to assist in the great plan."
"It's just that the Three Emperors have died, and the destiny of humanity has been affected. From now on, the emperors of the human world will probably no longer be able to practice. If Ziwei enters the world, it is very likely that she will not be able to protect herself and will die early."
Nuwa expressed her concerns.
At that time, the gods and Buddhas had disappeared, they were either sleeping or fallen. Could Ziwei really complete his mission?
The Saint Taiqing nodded and said, "So the person that Daoist Fellow Fuxi mentioned is particularly important."
Tongtian had kept his eyes closed from the beginning, and at this moment he seemed to have made up his mind. He opened his eyes, and the sword light was deep and stern, as if trying to forcibly cut out a glimmer of hope from the endless calamity.
"In this case, the Conferred God Plan... can make some changes."
…
In the Fire Cloud Cave, the Six Saints discussed for a long time and finally finalized all the details.
Saint Taiqing cast a spell to create the Three Emperors' avatars, whose appearance, temperament and even magical powers were no different from the previous Three Emperors. Even a saint might not be able to see through them.
The only limitation is that these fake Three Emperors will never be able to leave the Fire Cloud Cave, otherwise their true colors will be revealed.
With these three fake bodies, we can ensure that we won't alert the enemy.
Time flies, and ten thousand years seem like a single day.
With King Zhou writing blasphemous and erotic poems in the Nuwa Temple, the Conferred God Ceremony officially began.
Everything was exactly the same as what Li Daoxuan remembered. What really surprised him was that it turned out that Master Tongtian already knew everything about the Conferred God.
He deliberately wanted to play the ultimate villain in this drama.
The plot developed in the way Li Daoxuan was familiar with, but there was a huge divergence in the end. After Tongtian's Zhuxian Sword Formation was broken, he set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and tried to make a final resistance.
In the original novel, the long-eared Dingguang immortal rebelled, causing the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation to be broken, but this time, the long-eared Dingguang immortal did not betray the Patriarch Tongtian. The entire Jiejiao sect united against the common enemy and successfully set up this formation.
In an instant, it became a situation of life and death.
At the critical moment, Taoist Ancestor Hongjun came to the world with a grand appearance.
Suddenly, I saw thousands of auspicious clouds, thousands of auspicious auras, and strange fragrance coming from the south, and then I saw a Taoist coming with a bamboo stick in his hand.
He wrote a verse: "Lying high on the nine-layer cloud, I understand the truth of the Tao on my futon. Beyond the dark yellow of heaven and earth, I shall be the master of the religion. Pangu gave birth to Taiji, and the two yin and yang and four images followed. One Tao passed on to three friends, and the two religions were divided into Chan and Jie. The leader of the Xuanmen, the one Qi transformed into Hongjun."
It is none other than the legendary Taoist ancestor Hongjun, a being in harmony with the Way of Heaven.
Saint Taiqing, Yuanshi Tianzun and the two saints from the West all bowed and stopped killing. Logically speaking, Patriarch Tongtian should have stopped the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and taken the initiative to apologize to the Taoist Ancestor.
However, something surprising happened.
The Patriarch Tongtian roared angrily and manipulated the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation to kill the Taoist Ancestor Hongjun. In addition, the sound of four swords was heard between heaven and earth. The sword energy penetrated the sky and the earth, which frightened the immortals and terrified the gods and Buddhas.
Those were four powerful and peerless killing swords!
"Zhu Xian" is beneficial, "Lu Xian" is fatal, "Xian Xian" emits red light everywhere, "Jue Xian" has infinite and wonderful changes, and the clothes of Daluo gods are stained with blood.
Zhu Xian Sword Formation!
Legend has it that this is the number one killing formation in the Heavenly Dao since the creation of the universe, the supreme formation that dominates the killing of the Heavenly Dao. The Patriarch Tongtian once set up this formation, and it took the Four Saints to join forces to break it, which shows how amazing its power is.
No one expected that outside the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, Patriarch Tongtian actually set up the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation and even attacked Daozu brazenly.
Hongjun had never expected this, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
But he was the master of the Three Pure Ones after all, the first saint between heaven and earth, the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and facing the two most ferocious formations, he was not panicked at all. A jade disc flew out from the Niwan Palace, containing the wonders of the three thousand great ways and the creation of the universe, blocking the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and the Zhuxian Sword Formation.
The Jade Disc of Creation, Hongjun's treasure for proving the Tao, is said to be the brain of Pangu after he created the world and passed away. It records his understanding of the Tao.
Faced with the stubborn and demon-like Master Tongtian, Hongjun was no longer polite and smashed his holy body with a bamboo stick. Even the Master Tongtian's soul was taken away by the Jade Disc of Creation.
Fortunately, the four saints pleaded for mercy, which made Hongjun feel a little relieved.
Finally, Hongjun sent Tongtian's soul into reincarnation, requiring him to cultivate for ten thousand lifetimes before returning to the status of a saint. He also fed Taiqing Saint and Yuanshi Tianzun the Meteorite Pill, saying that if they had evil thoughts again and brought disaster to the people, the pill would take effect immediately.
Even saints can fall.
After that, Hongjun left, the Battle of the Gods ended, King Wu defeated King Zhou successfully, and everything seemed to be settled.
At this moment , the scene in the lake changed and new pictures appeared.
That was the reincarnation experience of Master Tongtian.
He used to be a woodcutter. While chopping wood, he had an epiphany and realized some truth of the universe from the action of chopping wood. Just as he was about to embark on the path of spiritual practice, a tiger appeared and swallowed him.
He used to be a soldier. He was invincible on the battlefield and almost became a Taoist through martial arts. However, during his march, he encountered a ground crack and was crushed to death by a huge rock weighing ten thousand pounds.
He used to be a swordsman. Without a master to teach him, he took the heaven and earth as his teachers and learned a set of mysterious sword skills. He was invincible in the martial arts world. Later, he went out to sea to search for immortals, but to no avail. Before he died of old age, he wrote a book called "Taishang Sword Classic", which contained his speculations and insights on the way of sword immortals.
…
It seems to be a punishment from the Taoist Ancestor, which makes the reincarnation of Master Tongtian always unable to obtain the opportunity to become an immortal.
In this way, generation after generation passed, until the Saint Taiqing took action, replaced the prince with a cat, and quietly replaced Tongtian's soul.
Something obscured the secret for them, and even Daozu Hongjun did not notice it.
Because that was his treasure for proving his truth, the Jade Disc of Creation!
But Li Daoxuan didn’t understand why the Jade Disc of Creation appeared in the hands of Saint Taiqing.
Then, Saint Taiqing sent the Jade Disc of Creation and the soul of Master Tongtian to outside the Three Thousand Worlds, a place isolated from the heavens, a place where no souls were, as if they were exiled or forgotten.
That universe was created by all the saints together, and the core of it was the blue planet.
In that world called Earth, the history is similar to that of the primitive world. In order to guide the progress of civilization, the saints often project their incarnations.
For example, the Taiqing Sage incarnated as Laozi, went west through Hangu Pass, and left behind the 3,000-word Tao Te Ching.
Like Nuwa, the goddess with a human head and a snake body, protecting the clan.
Like the Western saint who incarnated as Sakyamuni to teach all living beings.
…
They will never intervene easily, but will only cast a shadow at the critical juncture of civilization's development. Moreover, because there is absolute spiritual power there, even the incarnations of the saints cannot live forever and will eventually die.
All of this is to safeguard the birth of a life.
He is closely related to the prehistoric world, but is not subject to the jurisdiction of the prehistoric laws of nature.
In the hospital, the sound of a baby crying was heard.
Father Li looked at his own flesh and blood, stroked his soft face, and couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.
"It is indeed my son. It seems that the fortune-teller did not lie to me."
"This little face is so pretty!"
"From now on, your name will be... Li Daoxuan. This is the name that the old Taoist priest gave you. He said it will make you live a long and peaceful life."
