Lingshan.
Great Leiyin Temple.
This time, Lu Yu did not go in. Instead, he stood in the void, quietly looking at a piece of land floating in the starry sky in front of him, surrounded by the sun, moon and stars, with a diameter of about 100 million miles. In the Supreme Taichu Heaven, it can only be regarded as a "miniature" small land mass.
That land mass has barren soil and few resources. There are no special blessed places around it, and no valuable minerals for cultivation. Therefore, no force has set its sights on this place.
On this vast land mass, there are hundreds of secular dynasties, large and small, fighting for power and killing each other. Apart from that, there is not even a decent sect for cultivation.
To put it bluntly, the eight plains where Zhou Laodao was located were all guarded by branches of the Heavenly Court, which would recruit heavenly soldiers from the public every now and then to supplement the frontier troops...but as for this small piece of land, the Heavenly Court was too lazy to recruit soldiers here, because there was not even a decent cultivation inheritance here .
A pure, mundane, ordinary little landmass.
The sacred mountain is on this small land mass, and the Great Leiyin Temple is hidden in the sacred mountain. The lair of Qingsha, Mi Sanqi, Ming Jiudan and others is on this ordinary, unremarkable small land mass.
Therefore, after Lu Yi brought Mi Sanqi back, he did not set foot on this small land.
The magical power of Buddhism, very good at the methods of holding the Buddha Kingdom in the palm of your hand... God knows, this seemingly ordinary little land mass has similar arrangements? Lu Yu's speed is indeed very fast now, so fast that no one can match it. But if you are not careful, you will be trapped in a similar small world, and your life and death will be out of your control.
No matter how fast a dragonfly flies, if it is put into a transparent glass can, even a three or five-year-old child can easily crush and kill it.
Now, Lu Yu has been favored by the Supreme Taichu Heavenly Speed ​​Avenue. He has condensed the Speed ​​Dao Fruit. He is constantly deducing the mystery of the Speed ​​Dao Fruit. His understanding and mastery of "speed" are constantly improving. The more he improves, the more he has an impulse to be "free and agile" and "run freely in the starry sky".
He would never let himself fall into a small world that might be controlled by outsiders... Even though Qing Sha, Mi Sanqi, Ming Jiudan and others had shown him great kindness and closeness so far. Even though he knew that Qing Sha and his father in this life, Lu Yu, were once fellow disciples... Lu Yu was unwilling to step into Lingshan.
He stood quietly in the starry sky, watching the sun rise and the moon set on that small piece of land , watching the stars floating in the sky. During the short time he waited quietly, on that small piece of land with a radius of 100 million miles, three full-scale wars broke out among more than a hundred secular dynasties, local wars and turmoil broke out in 29 countries, and 37 countries were in chaos. Two queens, eight concubines, 72 concubines, and 13 princes were demoted, deposed, or died inexplicably under various ridiculous excuses in this short period of time...
Lu Yi was observing with great interest the birth, aging, sickness and death, joys and sorrows of billions of people on this small land mass. Suddenly, a faint Buddha light rushed out, and Qingsha, dressed in monk's robes, came stepping on the clouds. Behind him was Yuan Fu, the nephew of Taichu Emperor who had defected from Heaven.
Qingsha looked at Lu Yi with a smile.
He didn't say anything like 'come in for a cup of tea' or anything like that.
Previously, Lu Yu was knocked unconscious by Ming Jiudan and was almost "abducted" into Lingshan... and at this moment, with their help, Lu Yu condensed the speed fruit, but was unwilling to step into their lair...
We are all smart people, so there is no need to make some things clear.
Hurtful feelings!
Qingsha could especially understand Lu Fei's decision - before Lu Fei condensed the speed fruit, they could control Lu Fei's life and death at will, and any emperor could make Lu Fei want to become an immortal or die... Therefore, Lu Fei had no choice at that time.
And now, with the condensation of the speed fruit, even if Lu Yi is weak in other aspects, his 'unparalleled speed' alone makes him a character that cannot be ignored among many emperors.
He is qualified to make a choice, and he is even more qualified to make people understand his choice and respect his choice.
Qing Sha asked himself, if it were him... ahem, unless they were close friends, he would not be willing to casually step into the Pure Land of Buddhism where someone could 'close the door and beat the dog' at any time... The Buddhist method of using the Palm Buddha Kingdom was, sometimes, really shameless and helpless!
"Daoyou Lu Yu, I have some bad news." As soon as they met, Qing Sha got straight to the point: "Lady Bai failed to protect Yin Yuan, so he, Bai Yuan, his wives and concubines, all his children, and even the direct descendants of the Linghu clan behind Linghu Ju and the others, all fell into the hands of the Green Emperor."
Qing Sha said in a deep voice : "The Qing Emperor has sent a message through the Heavenly Court. If you don't go out to meet him and tell him the causes and consequences he wants to know, he will take ruthless action against Yin Yuan and others."
Qing Sha repeated what Qingdi said to Bai Niangzi and Yin Yuan.
His cruel heart and ruthless methods made Lu Yi's face turn pale and he was speechless for a while. He just stared at Qing Sha with his eyes like knives and said nothing.
Qing Sha spread his hands and looked at Lu Yi with a wry smile: "You, what are you going to do?"
How is Lu Yi preparing?
Yinyuan has fallen into the hands of the Qing Emperor... What else can he do? He thought that Lady Bai could protect Yinyuan, but unexpectedly, Lady Bai was stabbed in the back by Emperor Taiyu. Facing the Qing Emperor, Lady Bai had almost no power to resist...
Lu Yi did not hesitate to speculate on people's hearts with the greatest malice - does Bai Niangzi really want to protect Yinyuan?
Would she just let it go after she was done with Yinyuan?
Or, she simply uses a knife to kill?
She really loves Yinyuan so much that she is willing to turn against the Qing Emperor, the Taichu Emperor, the Taiwei Emperor and those old ghosts for Yinyuan... However, she hates the beauties around Yinyuan, such as Bai Yuan and Linghu Jun, and she even wants to kill someone else with the help of the Qing Emperor, and kill Bai Yuan, Linghu Jun and everyone related to them?
From now on, can White Snake and Yinyuan live together forever?
It’s not impossible!
Even more, the acquaintance between White Snake and Yin Yuan was fundamentally a conspiracy?
Countless thoughts came and went in his mind, and Lu Yi was unable to finalize an idea or make a decision - the truth was, between Yin Yuan and Bai Niangzi, ahem, Lu Yi was extremely unfamiliar with the concept of "men and women" and "love", and he had no ability to analyze and discern.
His understanding of White Snake is almost zero.
Due to the lack of information, he was unable to make any useful and reliable judgment.
Looking at Qing Sha who looked apologetic, Lu Yi sighed: "If I fall into his trap..."
Qing Sha said softly, "If you fall into his trap, there will be no return. Believe me, if you have any contact with Qingdi for Yin Yuan's sake, if he finds the slightest opportunity, you... I don't think it will work out."
Lu Yi looked at Qingsha.
Qing Sha looked at Yin Yuan sincerely, "I will not use the power of Lingshan to help you... well, or rather, for the sake of my uncle, if he asks, if you are in danger of life and death, I can help you... But, as for Yin Yuan... he, his wives, concubines, and children, if they die, then they die."
"They are of no importance to me. Their life or death means nothing to me." Qing Sha looked at Lu Yi with deep eyes: "To be honest, I am not sure I can deal with Qing Di, let alone Tai Chu, Tai Mi, and Tai Ni together... Not to mention, apart from the three of them, there are also those people from Guixu... I don't even know what Yuncha Ridge looks like."
"The whole world is my enemy, and life and death are at stake... Although I am still an ordinary Buddhist practitioner from the holy land of Nalanda, I cannot generate 'compassion' now. I don't have the ability, let alone the courage."
“Unless I am absolutely certain that I can kill the Green Emperor, Taichu, Taimi, and Taiyi, the leaders of Guixu, Yunchaling, and other major forces, and kill all the old ghosts who are hiding in the dark and whose lives or deaths are unknown but who are very likely to be alive… Otherwise, I won’t, Lingshan won’t, and all the brothers and sisters of Lingshan won’t take action!”
"Our goal is to keep as many people alive as possible... rather than sending them to die in vain."
Qing Sha told Lu Yi his attitude very directly.
Lu Yi nodded.
He agreed with Qingsha's explanation.
He understood Qingsha's decision.
Moreover, he really admired the determination shown by Qingsha.
If Qing Sha was hesitant and indecisive in this situation, because of the friendship between him and Lu Yu, because of the "incense and affection" he had just helped Lu Yu to condense the speed fruit, and because of various cause and effect entanglements, and he kept talking nonsense... Lu Yu would look down on him.
The Qingsha in front of him was very clear-headed, almost ruthless... Lu Yi was optimistic about him and hoped that he could keep as many people alive as possible.
In fact, he witnessed the Green Emperor's methods with his own eyes.
The countless warriors of the Holy Spirit Clan and the Chinese Clan, which numbered in the trillions and filled the entire sky, were directly devoured by the vines he created as nutrients, and were eaten clean by the alien races, big and small, that he "hatched"...
And the messages he sent through the Heavenly Palace - the methods he was going to use on Yin Yuan, Bai Yuan and others... were extremely cruel, filthy and vulgar, truly filthy and shameless... Qingdi had no bottom line. In other words, he had no "moral values" that a proper "intelligent creature" should have.
With no bottom line and no moral standards, such an enemy has almost no loopholes to exploit.
It was also because of this that Lu Yi believed that what Qing Sha said, that the Qing Emperor was preparing to overthrow the entire Supreme Taichu Heaven and destroy everything in this world, was not empty talk!
Sometimes, destruction is not just about killing all the living beings in this world, destroying all the stars in this world, and annihilating all the laws of this world - when all the living beings in this world are tainted by the strange methods of the Green Emperor, and the bloodlines of all ethnic groups are polluted by the strange methods of the Green Emperor...
This whole world would be destroyed!
Just like the three great emperors Taichu, Taimi and Taiyi today...are they really 'alive'?
Being alive is not just about being able to jump, eat, drink, defecate and urinate , it is just being alive.
"I have no intention, and I have no intention of disturbing all your established steps." Lu Yi looked at Qing Sha with the same sincerity: "No matter what the reason is, you helped me condense the Emperor Seal Dao Fruit, whether it is because of my father's feelings, or to recruit me to Lingshan... In fact, I admit that joining Lingshan and joining the Great Leiyin Temple is an excellent choice."
"But now, the Qing Emperor is like this, Yin Yuan is like this, I have to save him."
Lu Yi sighed and said, "So, after everything is over, if I am still alive, then how about we talk about other things?"
A layer of Buddha flames lingered in Qingsha's eyes. He looked at Lu Yi, thinking for a long time, and frantically tapped his ten fingers in his sleeves for a long time. It was unknown what kind of divination technique he used to calculate for a long time. Two drops of golden blood slowly oozed out of his nostrils. He stretched out his tongue and licked the two drops of golden blood back, so that there was no waste at all.
"You can survive. The probability of your death is not high." Qing Sha said with a smile: "After all, Qingdi is not in his peak condition, Taichu and the others are not really helping him... After all, this time is not the same as before... But you want to rescue Yinyuan..."
Gently shaking his head, Qing Sha said in a deep voice: "The probability of you rescuing him is not high... The probability of you rescuing him intact is infinitely close to zero... After all, he is in the hands of the Qing Emperor. I hope you are a little prepared. All kinds of bad things may happen... And, they may be happening..."
Lu Yu's heart sank.
Qingsha took two steps back and whispered, "After you survive this disaster, I will wait for you to come back. The gate of the Great Leiyin Temple will be open to you at any time... Yuanfu, tell fellow Daoist Lu Yi about the case of the ancient city of Loulan and the case of the Heavenly King who guarded the Morenzhi Heaven!"
Yuan Fu stepped forward and bowed to Lu Yi.
He looked Lu Yu up and down, his eyes revealing a hint of curiosity, and... an inexplicable jealousy and resentment.
Lu Yi could understand.
Yuan Fu is a member of Qing Sha's "Ling Shan" small organization. He claims to have done countless things for "Ling Shan". As a result, Lu Yi, a new member... who is not even a formal member, actually condensed the Emperor Seal Dao Fruit with the help of Qing Sha and others.
Condensing the Dao Fruit of the Emperor Seal is not a difficult task for the Lingshan organization. As long as they are important enough members, they can get help from the organization and successfully step into the threshold of the Great Emperor. The only difference is the strength and the level of the Dao Fruit they condense.
But what Lu Yi condensed was the fruit of the Avenue of Speed.
This made Yuanfu feel a little complicated...
However, in front of Qingsha, Yuan Fu didn't dare to explode.
He honestly told Lu Yi what happened that year - leaving aside the complicated interpersonal relationships and various conspiracies and struggles, if you get straight to the point, things are actually very simple.
Morenzhi Heaven is a vital place in the Supreme Taichu Heaven, known as the 'navel of the sky'!
It is said that there is the origin of the Supreme Primordial Heaven, which was created from the chaos. In a huge explosion, it evolved from a tiny invisible particle to the origin of the world. After the creation of the world, the Morenzhi Heaven is the place where the Supreme Primordial Heaven exchanges energy and matter with the chaos outside, swallows and spits out the laws of the chaos, and constantly evolves and changes, constantly strengthens itself, and strengthens the vital lifeline of the world.
Even more, in the Mo Renzhi Heaven, you can better comprehend the great Dao of heaven and earth, practice faster, and you don't even need the hard currency such as the Emperor's Coins that are now circulating in the body. You can smoothly absorb and release the agile and free spiritual energy of heaven and earth to enhance yourself.
There is also a legend that the highest authority of the Supreme Primordial Heaven is hidden in the Morenzhi Heaven. It is the umbilical cord of heaven and earth, the lifeblood of heaven and earth, and the hidden place of the hub of heaven and earth... If you can find the hub of heaven and earth, you can control the entire Supreme Primordial Heaven and obtain the highest authority between heaven and earth, the ultimate power!
Therefore, after the establishment of the Heavenly Court, the three great emperors Taichu, Taimi and Taiyi jointly set up the Morenzhitian Garrison. The three great emperors selected a powerful 'Morenzhitian Heavenly King' who had condensed the Five Elements Dao Seal to be responsible for guarding it.
That Mo Renzhi Heavenly King was on good terms with the previously fallen Tai Mi Emperor's son!
Well, I won’t talk about the personal relationships involved…
Anyway, that year, in a relic from the beginning of the world somewhere in Morenzhitian, a member of "Lingshan" - he was also the illegitimate youngest son of the King of Morenzhitian, the unlucky guy who had been abused by the King of Morenzhitian's wife since childhood... When he was exploring the relic, he found an extremely important object.
The unfortunate guy intuitively thought that the object was related to the rumors about Morenzhitian.
The hub of heaven and earth, the lifeblood of the world!
He urgently contacted the members of 'Lingshan' and wanted to send the object out of Morenzhitian.
As a result, the matter was leaked. Although he was a member of Lingshan, the unlucky guy was just an ordinary peripheral member, with ordinary strength, character, methods, power, etc. Leaking secrets was a normal thing.
Leakage, pursuit, the Heavenly King Morenzhi and the Prince of Taimi were also involved at the fastest speed.
No matter it was out of selfishness or some other reason... In short, the Heavenly King Morenzhi and the Emperor Taiwei concealed the matter from the people behind them... They took a small number of their trusted aides and personally took action, chasing and harassing the unfortunate guy all the way, making him have no way to go up to the sky or enter the earth, and he fled all the way to the edge of the Linghu territory - to the vicinity of Loulan Pass.
Among the high-ranking officials of Loulan Pass, there are people from "Lingshan", and there are also powerful masters sent by "Lingshan" for emergency reinforcement.
After a struggle, even Qingsha, the leader of "Lingshan", was not very clear about what happened... In short, the result was that the whereabouts of the important treasure was unknown, the entire Loulan Pass collapsed and exploded, flowing into the endless chaotic void, and finally drifting to the lower world... The Morenzhi Heavenly King was completely killed, and the unfortunate Taimi Emperor also died, and his imperial weapon, the Taimi Emperor Axe, eventually fell into Lu Yi's hands.
Then, the news of the ancient city of Loulan was learned by the Heavenly Court, Taimitian, and the Linghu clan. The three parties joined forces and sent people to break through the dimensional barrier and rush to the lower world to investigate the death of Taimi Emperor's son.
The Heavenly Palace, Tai Mi Tian, ​​the Linghu clan, and even Tai Chu, Tai Mi, Tai Yu Emperor and others, until now, still don’t know the truth of what happened back then… And how could Qing Sha and others, who knew the cause and effect of the incident, let them know the cause and effect of the incident back then?
Although Qingsha didn't know what the strange object obtained from the ruins of the creation of Morenzhitian was.
But no matter what, he couldn't let this treasure fall into the hands of Taichu Emperor and others.
Therefore, when Lu Yi hitchhiked a boat to ascend to the Supreme Taichu Heaven from the lower world, the ancient city of Loulan exploded halfway through the journey, and everyone was stranded in the borderland. Tianshu Laojun, Ling Yan and others were besieged by people using the precious treasure of Taichu Emperor.
"Yuan Fu leaked his tracks and defected from Heaven." Qing Sha waited for Yuan Fu to finish his story before saying, "Many things cannot be investigated when they don't know about them... But as long as they know about them, as long as they want to investigate, many clues cannot be concealed."
"At the very least, you have condensed the Dao Fruit of the Great Avenue of Speed, which proves that you are inseparable from the Holy Land of Nalanda."
"You and Sanqi's appearance at the same time proves that you are involved with us."
"You are involved with us, which means that you are involved in many, many, many troubles and unsolved cases that we have caused them in the past..."
“So, the cause and effect involved in you now is very, very heavy.” Qing Sha sighed, “Not only Qing Di, but also Tai Chu, Tai Mi, and even Tai Yu, they will do their best to chew up your bones, trying to find out the secrets in you and find out your connection with us.”
"So... my personal suggestion is." Qing Sha looked at Lu Yi and shook his head gently: "Let your sworn brother die. In fact, he can't die, but he will suffer some extremely tragic treatment... But, he can't die."
"You, slowly accumulate strength..."
While Qing Sha was trying to persuade him, Lu Yi had already shaken his head, turned around and left with a smile.
"Accumulating strength slowly... Tsk, that's a good idea, but you have been accumulating strength for so many years, and you still don't have the confidence to deal with them..."
Lu Yi waved his sleeves and was about to leave with Qingyou and the other two girls: "Let's give it a try!"
Countless thoughts flashed through Lu Yi's mind.
Back then, Dayin, Haojing... Early in the morning of that day, he ran to join the Palace Guards... Later, he met Yinyuan and Yu Changle for the first time!
It's been a while.
There are so many things.
Then, another thought exploded in his mind like thunder, blasting all the other chaotic thoughts into pieces at the same time - what the hell, the so-called hub of heaven and earth, the so-called lifeblood of the Supreme Taichu Heaven, that flowed out from the Mo Renzhi Heaven, couldn't it be the Taichu Huntong Pearl?
It can't be you, can it?
If it is the Taichu Huntong Pearl, then what is the origin of the Three-eyed God-Man Diagram, which has the same origin as the Taichu Huntong Pearl?
Picture of the three-eyed god!
Lu Yi quickly thought of the 'natives' of the Supreme Taichu Heaven, the so-called 'celestial race'. They were born with a third eye between their eyebrows in their blood, and they were born with the ability of the Dharma Eye!
If the Heavenly Court had not sealed the great way of heaven and earth and imprisoned the spiritual power of heaven and earth, after these "celestial beings" grew up, their external appearance would be exactly the same as the god in the Three-Eyed God Picture!
so……
Lu Yi only felt his shoulders slightly heavy and a huge pressure in his heart.
The cause and effect of his life was not only related to the Nalanda Holy Land, and not only to Qingsha and his group, but it involved much more, too much, so much...
This cause and effect was so heavy that Lu Yu didn't dare and didn't want to think about it carefully.
Just thinking about it for a moment, my scalp felt tingling and my whole body felt a little stiff.
"I just want to live a few more years in peace... but... " Lu Yi shook his head helplessly: "Buddha, have mercy on me!"
Behind him, Qingsha waved his sleeves and a ball of Buddha's light burst out.
"Fellow Daoist Lu Yi, all your followers are here... You, be careful!"
