Chapter 360 Let's see the emperor's star shines on Er's primordial spirit
"Emperor Star..."
The gray Confucian robe on Mr. Guanqi's body became still.
He thought for two or three breaths, and it seemed that he no longer wanted to stay in the Haitang Pavilion. Instead, he turned around and walked out of the pavilion, walking in the library with his hands behind his back.
Lu Jing followed him step by step.
Mr. Guanqi seemed to be admiring the scenery in the library, and seemed to be thinking about something.
It wasn't until they walked for a long time that Mr. Guanqi said: "You have been to the fairyland in the sky and seen the Emperor Star. Naturally, you know what the Emperor Star represents.
Even you cannot reflect the Emperor Star at the sixth level."
Lu Jing smiled and said: "I have always been very lucky. The Emperor Star I saw is consistent with my Tao. If I were to look forward to it, I would definitely not dream about it and hope to see the Emperor Star when I shine on the sixth level.
But now that I have Shaxilou, my Taibai Sword Light and Fuguang Sword Qi may not be able to reach three hundred miles high, but if I am willing, I may be able to go straight up to the sky to see the Emperor Star."
Mr. Guanqi's lips moved slightly, as if what Lu Jing said was feasible, but then he looked up to the sky again.
"It's a pity that there is still a Heavenly Tower covering the sky, and there are three stars in the sky that shine out stars to monitor the heaven and earth, and there is a Heavenly Gate that blocks people and things in the world.
How can your sword that killed Xilou reach ninety thousand feet to break the blockade in the sky and see the Emperor Star again?"
Lu Jing said nothing, but turned to look at the Taixuan Palace.
Mr. Guanqi suddenly understood what Lu Jing was thinking.
There was no light in the sky, but it seemed to sting Mr. Guanqi's eyes again.
He rubbed his eyes and still walked in the spring breeze of the library.
"Do you know the two most regrettable things in Emperor Chongtian's life?"
Lu Jing didn't know why Mr. Guanqi mentioned this, so he just shook his head.
Mr. Guanqi said: "The first thing is that the human world was defeated by the heaven again in the last battle of spiritual tides.
Emperor Chongtian has the name of a holy king, but just like the previous mortal kings, he has never created a new atmosphere in the world."
"The second thing is that Jianjia Shang Min left Taixuanjing. Emperor Chongtian, who wanted to control everything, did not hold the sharp sword Xuanyi Jianjia."
When Lu Jing heard Mr. Guanqi's words, he was quite puzzled and asked: "What exactly is Emperor Chongtian's plan?
Although Senior Shang Min left Taixuanjing and took off his white clothes of law enforcement, after that there was an additional sword armor and two more famous swords ranked third and fourth in the world.
He once reached the fairyland in heaven, and no one in heaven could stop him, and he even brought back five thousand fairy swords.
If we look at the thousands of years of human history, there will only be a handful of people like this.
That being the case, why did Emperor Chongtian insist on holding Shang Min's sharp sword in his hand?
Senior Shang Min is one of the best swordsmen in the world. If he had also become a ruthless and sexless sword, how could he have achieved such achievements?"
The two of them unknowingly arrived not far from Shaomu Courtyard.
In Shaomu Courtyard, many pharmacists in white clothes are busy.
It can also be seen that Mr. Eleven is recording the medicinal plants in the courtyard with a pen in his hand.
Qingyue and Luyu are nowhere to be seen, and they are also looking for clues?
Mr. Guanqi stood in front of a thick apricot tree, looking at the scene in Shaomu Courtyard, and said: "Because Emperor Chongtian wants to make the world and heaven merge into one, and there will be no more heavenly gates, heavenly palaces, and three stars in the sky."
Such boundaries.
He wanted a sharp sword that could cut off the sky, but Shang Min ran away, and the person who was most likely to be the sword was never controlled by Emperor Chongtian."
Mr. Guanqi spoke in an understatement, but Lu Jing's pupils narrowed slightly.
Cut off Tianque...
Tianque is the most precious treasure in heaven and earth. It has existed for an unknown period of time, and many of the truths of heaven and earth are controlled by Tianque.
The reason why Emperor Chongtian wanted to hold the sword tightly was because he wanted to cut open the sky and make the heaven and earth become one.
"Cut away the Heavenly Palace, and there will be no boundaries between heaven and earth. The immortal energy from the sky will flow back into the mortal world. The fruits of the spiritual tide obtained from the heavenly paradise will be shared with the human world!
Emperor Chongtian's chess game actually lies in this, and it can indeed be said to be of great courage."
Lu Jing's tone was filled with admiration, but suddenly his voice gradually became lower.
"Immortal Qi is far heavier than vitality. Immortal Qi enters the ordinary world, and the fruits of the spiritual tide spread throughout the world. Practitioners will definitely benefit.
But not everyone in this world can practice cultivation, and only those who cannot practice make up the majority."
Lu Jing couldn't help but stop when he said this. He took a deep breath, unable to suppress the coldness in his heart, and looked at Taixuan Palace.
He suddenly understood that before Lingchao, Dafu's politics were clear and the people were prosperous. Although the political ills accumulated during the Four Seasons were difficult to solve for a while, they were suppressed by Emperor Chongtian through various means.
Because of this, Emperor Chongtian was called the Holy King.
The name of this holy king is not his self-proclaimed name.
It was an honorific title for many people of that era.
But after the Lingtide, the rise of Northern Qin put Dafu under great pressure.
On the other hand, the imperial court also began to neglect people's livelihood. Corrupt officials were rampant. Coupled with more and more frequent natural disasters, the rich areas, border areas, and barren areas were increasingly deprived of the people's livelihood.
"So since the spiritual tide, the reason why Dafu has neglected the people's livelihood is because Tianque was cut off and the immortal energy poured into the human world. I am afraid that half of the mortal creatures in the world will die.
So on the one hand, Emperor Chongtian began to make spiritual practice a part of the imperial examination. A large number of spiritual practices were spread in the counties and rural areas, without restraining the sects and sects, in order to increase the number of practitioners.
It's a pity that ordinary practitioners still need to take pills and eat a lot of food, which is tantamount to increasing the burden on ordinary living beings."
Lu Jing had read too many books in the Cultivation Tower of the library. Most people's explanation for the Dafu court's practices in those current political books was simply that the Northern Qin had risen and Dafu was in urgent need of more practitioners.
But in fact, with limited resources, allowing a large number of low-level practitioners to increase in an disorderly manner will have almost no effect on the war, and will instead increase the burden on the country.
These burdens were eventually passed on to ordinary people, and so... the current situation resulted!
"So Emperor Chongtian gave up on ordinary people at some level?
They...were sacrificed."
At this moment, Lu Jing's tone was calm, and even after hearing such news, he didn't seem to have any reaction.
But Mr. Guanqi on the side was keenly aware that Lu Jing's hands in his long coat were trembling.
Mr. Guanqi sighed.
Lu Jing had asked about this matter before, and that time, Mr. Guanqi only said that he didn't know, and that was the reason.
There are countless people in the Thirty-six Dafu Dafu.
Even in the past few decades, too many people have died due to wars, natural disasters, hunger and many other reasons.
But there are still too many ordinary people in this world.
Those people have emotions, have kinship ties, and can think. They are also living people.
A few deaths would be fine, but if half of so many ordinary people die...
Lu Jing stood blankly for a while, then let out a long breath.
"Heaven covers the sky, the gate blocks the world, and the three stars in the sky monitor the heaven and the earth.
But the fairyland in heaven will never kill ordinary living beings in the world.
Emperor Chongtian has this thought... Why does he have to resist heaven? Just to become the emperor who can make three million immortals in the sky bow their heads? "
Mr. Guanqi pursed his lips: "Master said that Emperor Chongtian is not a devil who wants to become the Emperor of Heaven. There is always a reason why he is so anxious.
Mr. Fourth once asked the Master when he ascended to heaven.
Master only said, because it was too late."
"It's too late? What's too late?" Lu Jing asked repeatedly.
Mr. Guanqi shook his head, hesitated, and then said: "Look at Northern Qin again.
The concept of the Great Candle King is very similar to that of Emperor Chongtian.
He has strictly restricted the practitioners in the country, and ordinary people are completely dedicated to the imperial soldiers. Without the prefectures and counties to attract ordinary people, they are not allowed to practice.
And all practitioners were under the control of the imperial court, and freedom was a real luxury for the Northern Qin Dynasty.
The difference between King Zhuzhu and Emperor Chongtian is that Emperor Chongtian seemed to have given up on ordinary people and concentrated on planning his own chess game.
If the chess game succeeds, ordinary creatures will suffer heavy casualties.
The Great Candle King took the first step and wanted to turn the world into a huge furnace. Ordinary people are now the fuel in the furnace, constantly burning to forge powerful practitioners.
These practitioners transformed into chariots under the Great Candle Throne and drove forward until the war spread to the entire world.
The world becomes the fuel that drives the chariot to completely engulf the heavens.
For ordinary people, it is nothing more than the difference between dying first and dying later."
"Emperor Chongtian and King Da Zhu are both among the most powerful figures in the world today.
They are so impatient and resort to any means, I am afraid that it will be just like what Master said..."
"That's too late."
"Emperor Chongtian, King of the Great Candle..."
Lu Jing felt a sharp pain in his head. He closed his eyes and visualized the Great Sage Yantian, King of the Ming Dynasty, to calm down.
"So when Jian Jia Shang Min left Taixuan Jing, I became a sharp sword in the hands of Emperor Chongtian?
Is this what the so-called chess game is?
The so-called chess pieces are meant to be reborn as immortal-killing swords that inject immortal energy into the human world?"
Mr. Guanqi looked at Shaomuyuan in rapt attention, and the words in his mouth became extremely soft.
"The reason why I say this is to tell you that Emperor Chongtian lost Shang Min, a sword-armor, which has become his regret.
If you take the Emperor Star photo, maybe..."
"Perhaps I will be like Jian Jia Shang Min, unwilling to become an executioner who buries half of the world, and leave Taixuanjing from then on." Lu Jing took over Mr. Guanqi's words.
Mr. Guanqi thought for a moment: "The matter of Jianjia Shangmin is much more complicated and cannot be explained clearly in just a few words.
But as you said, for Emperor Chongtian, even if you walk slower, it may be better than if you run far away."
"Is it better than my chess piece dying in the hands of Lord Shuiyun, Zhao Qingping and the two generals of Xianlou?" Lu Jing couldn't help but ask.
Mr. Guanqi nodded without hesitation.
"Instead of letting you see the Emperor Star so quickly, leaving Emperor Chongtian unprepared, and letting you escape and become a disruptor like Jian Jia, it would be better for you to die at the hands of the powerful men in the West Tower of Heaven!"
Night is about to fall.
The spring breeze shouldn't be so cold, but Lu Jing felt that it was too biting.
After a long time.
Lu Jing suddenly raised his head, looked at Mr. Guanqi and said, "Lu Jing doesn't want to be the executioner who cuts off half of the world."
Mr. Guanqi could clearly hear that Lu Jing, who was usually calm and calm, without fear even in front of the old Zhulong, was trembling slightly at this moment.
Mr. Guanqi saw Lu Jing clenching his teeth tightly and clenching his fists, looking a little at a loss.
He actually regretted telling Lu Jing about this.
But... if I don't do many things now, I'm afraid I'll miss the opportunity.
Maybe if he doesn't say it today, when Lu Jing knows the truth, his disciples will have no chance to choose.
Mr. Qi was so soft-hearted and could not see Lu Jing being so afraid. He turned around and patted Lu Jing's shoulder gently.
"Don't be afraid. If something happens that is too late, if you can cut down the sky, you may be able to save more people."
"I won't save you." Lu Jing always had a good heart, but at this moment he just shook his head.
"I have cultivation on my body and a sword on my waist.
When you see injustices in the world, you will inevitably want to take action. When you see people who have died in vain, and evil things have been done, you will inevitably want to seek justice.
But how can my sword kill half the people and save the other half?"
"Moreover... Immortals, humans have no boundaries, heaven and earth merge into one.
The immortals in the sky are already tyrannical, so how can they give the human cultivators time to use the Spiritual Tide Fruit to improve themselves?
At that time, half of the people will die, and the other half will still have to become blood sacrifices to the immortals.
Maybe even worse than it is now!
I am only asked to kill Tianque, but who can help me bear the burden of the innocent souls behind me and the guilt on my shoulders?"
"I won't save you."
Lu Jing's eyes were stubborn.
Mr. Guanqi’s eyes became softer and softer.
"If you don't want to, then don't do it."
Mr. Guanqi said: "You are my disciple and the sword bearer of my library.
The library is no longer what it used to be, but it still has some room to spare."
"For example...what Emperor Chongtian doesn't want to do, the library can do it for you!"
Lu Jing suddenly raised his head.
Mr. Guanqi flicked his sleeves and said: "Do you want to see the Emperor Star with the light of your sword? See the Emperor Star with this light and become a strong Emperor Star from then on?"
Lu Jing looked at Mr. Guanqi motionless.
Mr. Guanqi stared into Lu Jing's eyes: "Are you sure?"
When Lu Jing heard Mr. Guanqi speak so solemnly, he asked: "Wish me to see the Emperor Star, but will it cost a lot?"
Mr. Guanqi just smiled and shook his head: "The price is not big, it's just inviting some people, but it only costs some favors."
Lu Jing asked in confusion: "Who are you inviting?"
Mr. Guanqi smiled casually: "There are not many people in the world who can owe the library a favor and be remembered by the library."
Lu Jing's eyes flashed: "Why not ask them to help us kill Xilou?"
After he finished speaking, he reacted again: "These characters all come from famous sects, are all unrivaled figures, and are people within the rules of the Emperor of Heaven?"
Mr. Guanqi glanced at Mr. Eleven again, turned around and took Lu Jing back to the Self-cultivation Tower.
He wrote several letters in the tower.
"I never thought that you were somewhat sure of seeing the Emperor Star.
Even if you only have two points of confidence, you should give it a try."
"You are my disciple, and you are the sword-bearer of the library.
The library must play some role."
Mr. Guanqi finished writing the letter and put a talisman on the envelope.
Now I looked carefully and saw that these four letters read...
Yuye Sheren!
Genkuro!
The Lord of Zhenwu Mountain!
The Great Human Buddha of Daleiyin Temple!
Mr. Guanqi raised the talisman and the letter burned up.
He looked at the bright moon in the sky and said, "Let's see the Emperor's star shining on your soul."
