Chapter One Hundred and Eighttieth: The Inspiration is Undecided
The light curtain of Dao Xuanzhang rose in front of us, and the figure of Feng Daoist appeared there. He bowed his head to Zhang Yu and said: "Fellow Taoist, you are polite."
Zhang Yu also bowed and said: "Fellow Daoist Feng, during this court meeting, has the Shangchen Tian Jade Book been delivered?"
Feng Dao Ren said: "Exactly, but this time Shang Chentian did not give in. He just proposed that in order to avoid the two families fighting, they are willing to resolve the matter through a legal battle. Whichever side loses, then the winner will agree to the previous
Please."
Zhang Yu changed his mind and shook his head.
What Shang Chentian proposed is actually a legacy from the past when various sects were established in ancient Xia.
Because in a large sect, whether you are willing to admit it or not, the role of upper-level monks is irreplaceable. As long as there are upper-level monks, even if the other disciples are exhausted, then a large sect can still exist for a long time.
Go down.
Sometimes there is a conflict between two major sects, and in order to avoid greater losses, the problem will be resolved through a duel between upper-level monks.
It is not surprising that Shang Chentian has this idea, because it is still a sect until now. Except for some small improvements, it generally maintains the structure of the ancient Xia Dynasty.
But Tianxia is not a sect, and it is impossible to pin the interests of everyone in Tianxia on the competition of a few monks. Not only are the upper and lower levels unwilling to do this, but Tianxia Law itself does not allow it.
Such legal discussions were not uncommon in Tianxia, but they were limited to internal affairs to resolve some minor conflicts, but the law had long since abolished them for external disputes.
He asked: "What does the court say?"
Feng Dao Ren said: "Tianxia has its own rules, how can it agree to such a thing?"
The court officials are not confused. Putting aside the law, just talking about the method itself has almost eliminated all the advantages Tianxia has, while Shangchentian's advantages have been infinitely magnified.
A large part of the reason why Tianxia was able to surpass Shang Chentian in the first place was because he occupied the upper level and promoted the mysterious method. The appearance of many Hunzhang monks made Shang Chentian unable to resist at all.
They can't fight even if they consume money. Now it's impossible to ask them to sacrifice their strengths for their shortcomings.
Zhang Yudao: "I rejected Shang Chentian last time. If I reject you again this time, I'm afraid I won't retreat again."
Feng Dao Ren said: "This time I will give Shang Chentian another jade letter and send an envoy to discuss it. Feng will probably be responsible for this matter."
Zhang Yu thought that this was a good move in dealing with the situation. It created a sign that the conversation could continue and gave Shang Chentian room to relax.
Although Feng Taoist didn't know exactly what he would do, he guessed that it would be based on the method of disintegration and differentiation.
You must know that Shang Chentian himself is full of contradictions. If he can really achieve this, it will invisibly weaken Shang Chentian's internal strength. The so-called war and conspiracy, such a battle, is actually more clever than killing and killing.
It is most appropriate for a Feng Taoist to be in charge of all matters other than etiquette. Although this person has been suppressed before, it was because of insufficient merit and improper position. However, this does not mean that he has no means.
He also has the Xuntian Daozhang, which allows him to communicate with Xuan Ting anytime and anywhere, so he can use his strengths even more.
He said: "If you want to go on a mission, fellow Taoist, you must be careful."
Although killing a Feng Zixian would not damage Tianxia's strength, there is no point in doing so, but sometimes, some radicals cannot be judged by ordinary people's thinking.
Taoist Feng was on this mission because Xuanting gave him a protective treasure, but he still thanked him: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for reminding me. Feng will be careful."
Here in Dongting Mansion, Zhang Yu's incarnation stood on the star platform. After checking the internal and external restrictions, he returned to the palace platform. In the back hall, there was a lush and leafy big tree planted at the moment.
Tree.
This is a long branch of the sacred tree of Imoan.
This thing is the one that Ichimandan planted in the dome and watered it with blood. After he discovered it, he transplanted it here. He originally used the divine energy from the sacred place to bring some, but in a short period of time,
It became a towering tree.
As soon as the tree became mature, the already weak turbid tide around it dropped a bit, which was very beneficial to the maintenance of the formation. Even the strength of his incarnation felt increased. If it were Xuan
Disciples of the government can also get a lot of benefits if they practice nearby.
If this sacred tree can be restored to the level of the giant banyan tree in Qingyang Shangzhou, we can consider establishing a state on it.
At this time, he glanced and saw a jade talisman flying from the distance, so he released the restraint and let it float over. When he took a look in his hand, he saw that it was sent by Taoist Zhankong, who said he might come back.
It was later than originally expected. He hoped that his disciple Xiao Gu could stay in the East Courtyard for a while longer.
Taking good care of a disciple is nothing more than a small matter, but Taoist Zhankong was so solemn about it, which made him have many associations for a while.
He thought for a while and felt that there were some things that he needed to ask after he came back.
At the same time, in the south of Yi Kong Shangzhou, in the open wilderness connected to Qingyang Shangzhou, Taoist Yuan was standing here alone, seemingly waiting for someone. From time to time, a gust of wind would blow and stir him.
Taoist robe.
After a long time, the sky darkened, and the sun was suddenly covered by a huge oval shadow. Immediately, a golden light descended and landed on the plain. After a while, the light dissipated, and a woman dressed in Taoist attire appeared from inside.
, she slapped the original Taoist priest and said: "Senior Brother Yuan, we haven't seen you for a long time."
The original Taoist also bowed and said with a smile: "Junior Sister Zhe, you are polite. It must have been ninety years since we last met, right? I wonder why Junior Sister Zhe invited me here?"
The female Taoist surnamed Zhe took out a Taoist jade talisman, signaled to him, and said: "Senior Brother Yuan, a decree came from the door, asking you to go everywhere quickly and collect those who once worshiped under Uncle Xun's door.
The disciples have gathered together and are ready to obey the master's arrangements at any time."
The original Taoist smiled and said: "So it's because of this, but Junior Sister Zhe is afraid that she has found the wrong person. I am not a disciple of your sect. Isn't it appropriate for me to do this?"
The woman named Zhe looked at him, frowned and said, "Senior Brother Yuan, I'm not joking with you."
Yuan Taoist said: "Junior sister Zhe, you should know that we are just students who follow the teacher to practice Taoism. We have never paid homage to the ancestor, and we are not considered disciples of your sect. Since we left the teacher, we have all gone our own way.
Cultivating Taoism requires me to gather them together, but I neither want to do it nor can I do it."
The woman surnamed Zhe said with a stern expression: "Yuan Xin, isn't this Taoist method passed down to you by Master Xun? Now that the master's order is being passed down, how dare you disobey it?"
The original Taoist said leisurely: "You are wrong about this. Although my teacher introduced me to Taoism, my cultivation was achieved by myself. Even Master Xun said that after I go out, don't say that I am his disciple. You have to
I don’t mind calling myself a sect, but it has nothing to do with me.”
The woman surnamed Zhe looked a little serious and said: "Yuan Xin, have you thought about it carefully? Do you know the consequences of doing this?"
The original Taoist smiled and said, "What consequences can there be?"
The woman surnamed Zhe nodded and stopped persuading her body. A bit of golden light flew into the oval-shaped magic weapon in an instant. In just a breath, the shadow dispersed and the world became a little wider.
The original Taoist stood there for a moment, and his figure disappeared before the next strong wind blew.
Two days later, in the suburbs of Yujing, there was a high pavilion on the bank of the river.
The original Taoist stood here and stared at the surging river below. Not long after he passed by, a red light fell from the sky. The Tao Ding Fu appeared, walked into the pavilion, and said: "Senior Brother Yuan is polite."
The original Taoist turned around and returned the courtesy: "Junior brother, you are polite. I call you here now to remind you that someone from the teacher's sect has been looking for me recently. Maybe they will come to you soon."
Tao Dingfu was a little strange and said: "Teacher, people from the sect? What are you doing here to come to us?"
The original Taoist looked at a small boat floating down the river in front of him and said: "Teacher's lineage was originally a large sect, with Teacher as the head. According to the rules, Teacher should inherit the position of head, but Teacher
He never cared about this, and did not think that Tianxia should have any more sects at this time, so he rejected the matter. However, one of the teacher's junior brothers suggested that the Taoist sect should not be cut off and took up the position.
.
The teacher had no intention of arguing with him, so he took me and a few senior brothers out of the sect, giving guidance to us while looking for disciples who could inherit the teacher's teachings."
He smiled and said: "Because the teacher does not recognize the sect's system, he never treats us as disciples, but just like students under Xuanfu. But the problem is that some people may not be like this
look."
There was a hint of ridicule in his voice, "In the eyes of these people, once you are a teacher, you will always be a father. As long as you have practiced Taoism under the teacher, you are a member of the sect. They have the power to command them. Now, although I am
I rejected them, but since they came to me, they will definitely come to you later."
Tao Dingfu thought for a while and said: "We are Tianxia monks, but Tianxia has its own laws and rules. If we don't want to obey them, can they still go beyond Tianxia's rules?"
The original Taoist laughed and said: "This is not necessarily true, the sect is quite powerful. I once heard that when Tian Xia was able to enter the world and was able to drive Shang Chen Tian away, the sect seemed to have put in a lot of effort.
.
As far as I know, Tian Xia He once had an agreement with the sect, I don’t know the details, but if they really find them, they must be sure, and Tian Xia may not necessarily intervene."
Tao Dingfu couldn't help but think about it.
The original Taoist looked at him and said: "Junior Brother Tao, do you still remember what I said to you last time? There are some things that we need to face together. If we spread out, and the sect comes to us, we can be together
If we are dealt with, we will have to submit when the time comes, but if we join forces in one place, it will not be so easy to force us to submit."
