If you run fast enough, so fast that mortals cannot see you, cannot sense you, and naturally cannot touch you. As long as you run fast enough, knives cannot hurt you, swords cannot hurt you, and wind, rain, thunder and lightning and other attacks cannot hurt you.
There is only one thing that can be faster than your speed.
That is 'power', or in other words, 'rules'.
The four palaces of wind, rain, thunder and lightning are powerful institutions in the heavenly court, and are also one of the main battle palaces in the heavenly court. Many civil and military officials in the palace have practiced the laws of the great way related to wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and comprehended the magical powers and secrets related to them. Many mysterious means have been derived from them, which are quite mysterious in attacking and conquering. Especially in large-scale wars, the combat power of the four palaces of wind, rain, thunder and lightning is more powerful than the encirclement of trillions of troops in the Five Military Offices.
The Five Military Headquarters are mostly composed of ordinary heavenly soldiers of the heavenly soldier and heavenly scholar level.
As for the four major palaces of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, most of them are elite troops. They are properly included in the list of civil and military officials and have duties and ranks. The weakest one is a master of heavenly general level.
Therefore, the treatment of the four palaces of wind, rain, thunder and lightning is much better than those heavenly soldiers and generals of the five military offices who live in tents and sit cross-legged in the open air… Any official with a formal job in the four palaces has an exquisite pavilion of varying sizes to enjoy in his own yamen, and each of them has dozens to thousands of assistants, clerks and servants serving him according to his rank.
This time the commander of the Sky Patrol Forbidden Divine Guards personally took action and commanded the army to hunt down the defecting Yuan Fu. The heavenly soldiers and generals of the Five Military Offices surrounded Yuncha Ridge, but the main force of the attack was the masters of the four major halls of wind, rain, thunder and lightning.
After all, Yuncha Ridge is vast, and even if an astronomical number of heavenly soldiers and generals are mobilized, they can only "encircle" it. The greatest use of the Five Military Offices in the siege of Yuncha Ridge is probably to act as eyes and ears to prevent Yuan Fu from escaping from somewhere... Only by sending out the masters of the four major halls can we attack the key points and exert sufficient pressure on Yuncha Ridge.
Since they were the main force in the attack, they naturally bore the greatest pressure and suffered heavy casualties.
When the top leaders of the three divisions of the Blood-Clothes Division, Iron-Clothes Division, and Black-Clothes Division who stayed behind in Heaven, rushed to the headquarters of the four major halls of Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning with a large group of elite troops, they found that the vast and boundless palaces and pavilions were filled with the scent of various healing elixirs. A large number of masters from the four major halls who had returned from the Yuncha Ridge front with serious injuries were huddled in the headquarters to recuperate.
Above the four great palaces, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth revealed its true form, with giant dragons wriggling along the avenues. The thick and pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth turned into a sea of ​​starlight pouring down from the sky, without any restraint or prohibition, allowing the seriously injured people from the four great palaces to inhale and exhale, repairing their injuries while improving their cultivation.
The sound of a bell rang loudly, startling everyone in the four major halls.
Soon, a large number of civil and military officials from the four major halls hurriedly drove their lights to the hall where they usually gathered for meetings.
Among these people were the two hall masters and seventeen deputy hall masters of the Thunder Hall and the Lightning Hall, who had rushed to the front at Yuncha Ridge, fought the most fiercely, and worked most hard to win merit, but were also the most seriously injured, as well as officials from many prefectures, departments, pavilions, and temples under their jurisdiction.
The battle of Yuncha Ridge was a fierce one among the four major halls. The senior officials who were recovering from injuries in the four major halls’ garrisons accounted for more than half of the senior officials in the four major halls. Hearing the bell ringing, these senior officials did not dare to neglect and all rushed over.
Seeing that it was the high-level officials from the three divisions of the Sky Patrol Forbidden Divine Guard who had arrived together, the numerous masters from the four halls of Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning who had rushed to the main hall were trembling with fear and were extremely terrified. Even the two hall masters of the Thunder Hall and the Lightning Hall, who had made countless contributions and were seriously injured in the fierce battle, showed an extremely respectful attitude towards the high-level officials from the three divisions who stayed behind in the Heavenly Court and whose status and cultivation were far inferior to theirs.
"My Lords..." The Lord of Thunder Palace just stepped forward, cautiously wanting to find out what was going on.
"First, take him down." A deputy chief of the Blood Robe Division sighed, "Don't worry, Palace Master. It has nothing to do with you. However, someone under your command colluded with the demons of Yuncha Ridge, which led to the fierce battle in front of you... Tsk tsk, it's just to cooperate with the investigation. It's nothing serious. Don't worry too much."
“Hey, hey, hey, hey!” The dignified Lord of the Thunder Palace, who has opened up 480 million acupoints, has mastered the laws of thunder, lightning, storms, hail and other celestial phenomena, and has immersed himself in them for countless years. He is a great master who only needs an opportunity to condense the Emperor Seal Dao Fruit...
Well, with the cultivation level of the Lord of Thunder Palace and his background, if the Great Emperor Taichu agrees and bestows him a little favor, he can take a step forward. Any avenue that he has comprehended for many years can easily condense the Emperor's Seal!
However, Emperor Taichu did not speak, and the Lord of Thunder Palace was like a fat pig that had been raised in a pigsty for countless years. He clearly had the opportunity to transform into a dragon, soar into the sky, and escape from the barriers... but he was reluctant to give up the delicious pig food thrown by his master every day, and had no intention of escaping at all.
Therefore, having stood on the threshold of the Great Emperor for countless years and with most of his body already squeezed into the threshold, the Lord of Thunder Palace was just like his other colleagues. Unless the Great Emperor Taichu spoke, he would honestly maintain his cultivation at this extreme critical state, without any idea of ​​breaking through, let alone the courage to do so.
Otherwise... with his background, his strength, and the number of masters from the four halls present, the mere patrol guards of the three divisions would have been crushed to pieces long ago...
Not to mention, the master of the Thunder Palace has studied the avenues of thunder, lightning, and storm, and these three avenues are all related to "speed". His attainments in the avenue of "speed" are extremely strong. If he wants to condense the "speed fruit", he only needs to kill a few other competitors who also have certain attainments in the avenue of "speed" and leave enough "shares". He can also be promoted to the status of the emperor with the "speed avenue".
With such a high level of speed, if the Lord of the Thunder Palace wanted to escape, all the Sky Patrolling Divine Guards present wouldn't even be able to smell his fart...
However, a few black-clad clerks from the lowest level of the Patrol God Guard came up carelessly. The Lord of the Thunder Palace obediently sealed his cultivation and allowed these black-clad clerks to put the specially made shackles on him. A series of muffled "clicks" were heard, and all the 480 million acupoints were blocked...
It's settled. The Lord of the Thunder Palace instantly became a mortal man. Except for his extraordinary physical strength , he could not use any other magical powers or spells at all.
"Well, Lord of the Lightning Palace, please cooperate..." The deputy chief who had just spoken sighed again: "Actually, it's none of your business... But, aren't the rules of the Sky Patrol Guards here? If your subordinates make a mistake, it will be linked to you... You know, the Heavenly Court has been in turmoil recently. I'm just asking you a few questions to clear your suspicion, and that'll be fine!"
"Uh, uh, eh, eh..." The master of Thunder Palace is much stronger than that of Thunder Palace Master. Even in the 'Avenue of Speed', his attainments are more than twice as high as that of Thunder Palace Master. Among the many civil and military officials in Heavenly Court, in terms of speed alone, the master of Lightning Palace is perhaps only slightly slower than a few people such as Lord Tianshu Laojun and the Grand Commander. He also stretched out his hands obediently, sealed his cultivation, and let the black-clothed clerk put the shackles on him.
Thus, under the two hall masters, many elite masters from the four halls, and even some ordinary assistants and clerks who had some knowledge of speed, more than one million elite soldiers of Heaven, were captured in one fell swoop by the Sky Patrolling Forbidden Divine Guards and taken away directly from their base.
As mentioned before, among the civil and military officials of the four major halls of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, the weakest ones are masters above the level of heavenly generals.
Heavenly generals, star gods, heavenly monarchs, great heavenly monarchs, more than a million true elites, were strung together with shackles. They were extremely obedient and well-behaved, and followed the Sky Patrol Divine Guards away leisurely without any resistance.
What is the 'Speed ​​Avenue'? What is the most top-notch Heavenly Master under the Great Emperor... Ugh!
The mighty team entered the three large ships of the Sky Patrol Forbidden Divine Guards one after another. Surrounded and escorted by a group of warships, the large ships slowly left the Heaven Palace and went away through the secret passages of the teleportation arrays set up by the Heaven Palace one after another, and their destinations were unknown.
Under normal circumstances, such a commotion could not be hidden from Emperor Taichu.
But a few days ago, due to the outflow of the imperial treasures from the Tianji Secret Pavilion, many institutions in the Heavenly Court were massacred. Although Laojun of the Heavenly Book selected a huge number of masters from the Taichu Yuanting to fill the vacancies that were emptied... but ninety-nine percent of those masters from the Taichu Yuanting were dull. It was okay to ask them to do things according to orders, but expecting them to have any subjective initiative... that's nonsense!
As for the other useful, available, and reliable masters, those who were truly loyal to the Great Emperor Taichu, they were all fighting bravely and fearlessly in Yuncha Ridge under the leadership of the Grand Commander... They were fighting fiercely with the demon army of Yuncha Ridge, and official documents reporting victory were sent out several times a day. Today, a few giant monsters were killed here, and tomorrow, dozens of giant monsters were killed there...
Tsk, they are busy fighting against the terrifying army of demons in Yuncha Ridge, so how can they have the energy to care about the affairs of Heaven?
And the many princes and princesses who had been doing nothing all day, causing trouble in the Heavenly Court, placing spies everywhere, and seeking power everywhere... Seeing that Yuan Fu, who was usually more favored than themselves, had gotten into trouble, Emperor Taichu killed and bloodily cleansed all the major halls, palaces, departments, and institutions in the Heavenly Court. These princes and princesses all left the Heavenly Court and ran away to enjoy their lives.
The many followers they left in the Heavenly Palace were all more well-behaved these days. No one was walking around randomly, no one was wandering around randomly, no one was looking around randomly, listening randomly, or thinking randomly...
As for the Great Emperor Taichu and the Lord of the Heavenly Book who should have been in charge of the Heavenly Palace in the past... well, at this moment they are in an unknown small town in Tianzhou, enjoying their lives to the fullest... Their attention is not on the Heavenly Palace which has just been bloodily cleaned up and should have become extremely clean and safe.
Who would have thought that there was still a "powerful enemy" among his own people.
Who could have thought that their home would be robbed?
For countless years, in order to strengthen the control over the Supreme Taichu Heaven, except for a few forbidden areas such as Yuncha Ridge and Guixu, the Heavenly Court's void waterways are densely spread everywhere. Many of them are secret passages that are rarely used even once in tens of thousands or even millions of years.
Only the Sky Patrol Divine Guards, who are specifically responsible for doing the dirty work and doing the dirty work in secret, are familiar with these secret passages of void teleportation that are rarely used in countless years.
Secret passages were activated one by one.
The secret passages were activated one by one. After this small fleet passed by, the people guarding the secret passages were purged and replaced by "themselves", who were "absolutely reliable" to Yan Xun and others.
It is 'oneself', not 'one's own people'. There is a big difference here and they should not be confused.
Finally, the three large ships were sent to a remote and desolate secret star field that could be described as "seldom visited by humans since ancient times"... The three large ships stopped here, while the others left one after another.
When they left, except for a very small number of "themselves", all the other members of the Sky Patrol Forbidden Divine Guards were killed.
For the Patrol God Guard, its branches are spread all over the Supreme Primordial Heaven. How many officials, core members, and peripheral members are under its command? I'm afraid it's all a mess in the eyes of the commander-in-chief. When going out on a mission, no matter how many people are killed or injured, it's just a line of numbers in the account book... Sometimes, it doesn't even appear in the account book.
Once dead, dead.
The death of the Heavenly Forbidden Guards was basically a "pleasant" and "happy thing" for the Heavenly Court and the people of the world. Who would care how many people died? When did they die? Where did they die? And why did they die?
No one cares, so if he dies, he dies!
Among all the "selves", only the one who was mixed in the crowd and dressed in the clothes of a minor official, Yan Yan, took a deep look at a certain place in the desolate starry sky and smiled slightly before leaving.
"My Buddha, have mercy on me." Yan Yan softly and silently recited the Buddha's name.
In Lu Yi's mind, the Western Heaven Pillar among the Four Heavenly Pillars emitted a faint ray of Buddha's light, an extremely slight ray of joy that 'after going through hardships, old friends remain the same'... Then, in this ray of Buddha's light, an imperceptible compassion quietly arose.
After going through all the hardships, the old friends who returned were no longer old friends after all.
Not only is he not an old friend, he is even...
The Heavenly Pillar of the West wanted to communicate with Lu Yi and discuss something... But in the end, He said nothing and did nothing. He quietly floated in Lu Yi's mind, and together with the other three Heavenly Pillars, he arranged the Buddha formation to protect Lu Yi's mind and soul.
Even if the Buddha survived the catastrophe and struggled hard to return, the one who returned to the human world might not be the Buddha, but more likely the devil...
And those demons that are reincarnated from Buddha... are more terrifying than the original 'real demons'.
They are more qualified than those 'real demons' to become the 'heartache of Buddhism' and the real 'enemy of Buddhism'.
The other three pillars also had faint light rippling from them.
Feeling the strange, 'non-Buddhist' aura from Xuanyang, and the mournful cry from the Western Heaven Pillar, the three Heavenly Pillars simultaneously developed a sense of empathy, as well as a sense of worry, or fear.
The Taichu Huntong Pearl flickered slightly.
In the dim light, only He could sense the subtle information exchange between the four pillars. But He remained the same as always, not paying any attention, not moving or shaking. It was as if this world had remained unchanged since ancient times and would never change.
Lu Yi looked at the three large ships parked in the void, and looked at Ming Sanqi beside him in surprise: "They've been delivered?"
Ming Sanqi nodded slowly: "It has been delivered."
Lu Yi clasped his hands together. Although he had already returned to his layman's attire, he still couldn't help but act like 'Master Fahai': "Buddha has mercy on me. Even if I kill a chicken, it will... at least flutter and struggle a few times, right?"
Mi Sanqi laughed sarcastically.
This is heaven.
These are the heavenly rules and regulations formulated by the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court is so powerful that it looms like a monster over the heads of countless creatures in the Supreme Primordial Heaven. As long as you find the loopholes in its rules and find the opportunity for it to exploit, the seemingly powerful Heavenly Court will be nothing more than a colorful soap bubble that will burst with a single poke.
She stretched out her bare hand towards the void, a streak of light flew by, and condensed into a jade slip at her fingertips.
The cause and effect of the matter were explained clearly.
Ming Sanqi said dimly, "It went very smoothly. None of them resisted or struggled... They were more obedient than little chickens."
With a sigh, Ming Sanqi said softly: "I understand what Big Brother said. This is the place they chose and arranged as the final battlefield. What does that mean?"
Lu Yi was horrified.
He looked at Mi Sanqi and said in a deep voice, "The chosen and arranged final battlefield? Senior Qingsha, it seems that they lost that year, right? The Nalanda Holy Land was completely destroyed."
"Completely destroy it?" Mi Sanqi smiled. "Physical objects are easy to destroy. But how can the 'Tao' and 'Law', 'faith' and 'inheritance' be so easily destroyed?"
"Not to mention, completely destroyed?" Mi Sanqi raised a finger and whispered, "The word 'completely' is actually very... very... imprecise. First of all, someone who has a certain degree of self-protection power? Someone who can be recognized by Master Lu Yu... or in other words, someone who was brought here by Master Lu Yu after making such a great sacrifice back then."
Lu Yi's hair stood on end again.
Mi Sanqi chuckled and said, "Being able to become Master Lu Yu's biological son in this life... I am also looking forward to it. What exactly is so extraordinary about you... Well, my elder brother said that Master Lu Yu burned all the fruits of his previous life and turned them into a great wish. He experienced trillions of disasters in the lower world just to bring back 'a hope'."
"'One hope', could it be you?" Ming Sanqi looked at Lu Yi curiously: "Maybe. I'll wait and see!"
Lu Yi looked up and down at Min Sanqi.
There is a strong smell of conspiracy!
Lu Yu, that frivolous father, actually did such a thing back then?
What is the great Buddhist aspiration? Those who understand it all understand it... Basically, it is an IOU to heaven and earth. Moreover, many of these IOUs are blank, and basically they are not intended to be repaid.
But Lu Yu’s great ambition was to burn up all his previous life’s achievements and all the fruits of his Tao?
Just look at Qing Sha and you will know that he has found so many remains of the Buddha left over from his previous life in this lifetime... As Qing Sha’s senior master in his previous life, Lu Yu’s achievements are definitely stronger than his... He paid such a huge price and burned all his achievements in his previous life, just for a great wish!
This is a real investment!
Lu Yi shook his head, then nodded, and strode towards the three huge ships that were floating motionlessly in the void.
Caught in a whirlpool.
In the midst of disaster.
Although I can't see the whole picture, I have already caught a glimpse of its mottled silhouette... It's terrifying to think about it carefully, and I must have some ability to protect myself.
'Speed ​​Avenue'?
very good!
As for whether the masters of the four palaces of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and the civil and military officials of the heavenly court were innocent...
"Am I, Lu Yu, a kind 'Saint Mother' in my past and present lives?" Lu Yu smiled, and shook his head as he answered his own question: "Obviously, no... Although my Buddha is merciful, I am not my Buddha!"
"So, I don't need mercy!"
The four pillars of heaven.
Come out together.
Taimi Emperor swung the axe.
