The large formation in front of the hall that had been silent for many days suddenly emitted a bright light. In the five pits where the giant leopards were originally placed, a light suddenly rose to the sky, and bursts of sound were transmitted down.
Taoist Tianhong was pouring elixir powder into the elixir furnace in the hall when he felt movement. He stepped out of the hall and looked up, and saw thick thunderbolts flashing and swimming above the formation, like golden snakes dancing.
There were bursts of thunder.
After a while, there was rain and dew, pattering down in the center of the array. These raindrops condensed in the middle like thick mercury water, and finally sank into a hole in the middle. After a few breaths of silence, there was a loud sound, and a
The majestic light rises upward into the sky and penetrates deep into the endless void.
When Taoist Tianhong looked up, a golden light flashed by, and Guyangzi appeared beside him. He was also disturbed by the changes in the formation, so he came over.
Taoist Tianhong said: "Fellow Taoist Guyang, look at this situation, Taoist friend Yingchong is about to return."
Guyangzi said slowly: "According to our previous calculations, there should be about three months before his return, but now it seems to be earlier than we originally expected."
Taoist Tianhong didn't take it seriously and said: "I'm not surprised. Fellow Taoist Yingchong had already made arrangements before this and was guided by the formation. He must have known that I was waiting to call him back. If he himself felt
There is nothing wrong with him, he will definitely try to follow this power and return to the world as soon as possible."
Guyangzi nodded and said: "Fellow Taoist Yingchong used to often deal with evil gods. He knows these things better than we do. After he comes back, assuming that the evil gods can escape from Tianxia, then the communication between the two parties will be difficult."
Just leave it to him."
However, Taoist Tianhong was in a very high mood and said: "More than that, fellow Taoist Guyang, I have already made all the arrangements. I just wait for fellow Taoist Yingchong to come back, and then I can start to attract the Huanyang sect."
Guyangzi nodded and said slowly: "It's time to do it as soon as possible."
In fact, when Taoist Tianhong talked about Zhang Yu that day, he was also worried, but what he was worried about was not Zhang Yu alone, but that since Tianxia could produce such a character, there might be a second one.
Judging from the foundation Xia has accumulated over the years, this is not impossible.
And now looking back at Shang Chentian, who has been separated from Tianxia for so many years, it can be said that most of Xuanzun is still the same person as before.
In the past, this was a very normal thing. Without going through more than a thousand years of hard work, how could the younger generation of disciples possibly succeed?
But in the blink of an eye, everything seemed to have changed.
If they are unwilling to accept this, then they must destroy it and let everything return to the track they were familiar with.
Deep in the void, in the main city of Youcheng, above the sea of white mist, there are seven high platforms floating, with a Xuan Zun sitting on each of them, and auspicious clouds and clouds surrounding each person.
Gan Bai's incarnation was also sitting here. In fact, he didn't want to come, but Taoist Xian Ding pressed hard this time, and his attitude was very different from before. He was obviously very determined, so he could only get here in a clone.
This time, everyone had not waited long before a brilliant light fell on the main stage, and a young Taoist with a shimmering golden light appeared there.
All the Xuanzuns stood up and saluted, saying, "Show Dingzun, you are polite."
Taoist Xianding nodded and said, "Everyone, please take a seat."
After everyone sat down, he said: "Shangchentian and Tianxia are about to fight again. I don't need to say more about this matter. All of you colleagues must also know that we are not the ones to intervene in this battle. Please come down and guard your doors.
, if there is someone who goes out to fight without permission and interferes with the war, in order to avoid implicating other fellow Taoists, Youcheng will not accept their identity and will not go to help, you all need to understand."
These words were immediately echoed by several Xuanzuns.
Most people join Youcheng just to seek shelter. They neither like Tianxia's strict rules nor are they interested in doing anything to rush into traps. They are like this, so naturally they don't want others to drag them down.
Get into the water.
But it is undeniable that there are still one or two people who do have some ideas, but after hearing what he said, they also restrained their minds.
At this time, someone in the seat said: "Showing the Supreme Lord, will the Huanyang Sect be summoned by Heaven?"
Taoist Xianding replied: "This matter has been confirmed. Unless Shang Chentian gives up everything and returns to Tianxia, or Tianxia agrees to Shangchentian's request, they will not stop."
Everyone shook their heads, but this was a joke. If these two families could give up their positions, they wouldn't have been fighting for more than three hundred years.
At this time, another Xuanzun said: "But what if Shangchentian or the Huanyang sect doesn't follow the rules and attacks us, or if Tianxia comes to attack us too? What should we do? Isn't it possible?
Do you want to fight back?"
Taoist Xianding said slowly at this time: "If you feel that you cannot defend the branch city, you can come to my main city to seek shelter, and I will protect you."
Although he said this, no one responded for a while.
Youcheng pays attention to the division and administration of each city. If they are all gathered in one place and protected by one person, it may not seem like much on the surface, but the meaning is completely different.
But they also have to consider practical issues.
Shang Chentian even tried to be polite, but the Huanyang sect will not reason with you at all. Unless you have the ability to suppress it, then it will not provoke you for the time being.
Seeing everyone, Taoist Xianding remained silent and said, "Since Tianxia and Shangchentian haven't started fighting yet, this matter is not urgent. You can go back and think about it slowly. Let's discuss another matter first."
At this time, Zhong Tingzhi and Chong Tingzhi were standing on the Qingqiong Land Observatory. In front of them, there was a crystal jade with many holes that was constantly rotating and changing shape. They were targeting the evil god at the moment.
Making some kind of calculation.
The movement of the evil god seemed to be irregular, but they could tell that it actually followed a certain principle.
As the number of times it escapes gradually increases, their calculations will progress faster. When it is perfected, they can calculate their next escape location one step ahead of time through subtle changes in its Qi mechanism, and then use it.
Yuandu Xuantu sent Taoist Zhengqing there first and intercepted him.
Twenty days later, Zhong Tingzhi's lowered eyes suddenly raised, his eyes shone brightly, and he said: "It's time to forget it, eh..."
At this time, he suddenly discovered that the Taoist Zhengqing who was pursuing him suddenly moved away to a certain place. The place where he landed was exactly where he had predicted. He exclaimed without realizing it: "It turns out that Taoist Zhengqing was already one step ahead."
I have a glimpse of the evil god's method, and the method of fellow Taoist Zhengqing is indeed amazing."
Lin Tingzhi discovered this at this time and said to Taoist Zhankong on the side: "Fellow Taoist Zhankong, we must keep a close eye on the evil god this time."
Taoist Zhankong nodded, and with a change of heart, he once again activated the Yuandu Xuantu.
At this moment, in the void, the monk in white clothes who had been running away suddenly stopped because he found that Taoist Zhengqing was already waiting for him there.
He immediately understood that from now on, no matter how much he tried to escape, it would be useless, and he might not be able to escape.
However, he did not panic, but smiled, holding a magic formula like a monk, and his body suddenly became void and unstable.
Lin Tingzhi and others on the viewing platform couldn't help but frown when they saw this scene through the water curtain.
They can all feel that this evil god is in a certain state of the future, and if he takes action against him, something may happen against his will.
Taoist Zhengqing glanced at him, and just waved his sleeves at him, and a clear light fell. The white-clothed monk's originally empty and uncertain figure was illuminated by this light, and immediately fell into the real world. He couldn't help showing a look of surprise, and said
: "You know my way very well?"
Zhengqing Taoist said: "It's just that your Taoism is too shallow. Although you are seeking Taoism and trying to follow your own path, the Taoism you take is still derived from Taoism. You need to transform yourself into a Taoism first."
If people then apply Taoism, there will be a layer of separation, and there will naturally be omissions and loopholes."
When the monk in white heard this, he was very impressed and said: "Your words are very reasonable." He then humbly asked for advice: "Then how can I improve?"
Taoist Zhengqing said in a calm voice: "You can't do it. The Taoism of our generation is as prosperous as it is today. It is due to the countless predecessors who came forward and succeeded to open the way. It condenses the wisdom of countless ancestors. That is the most suitable
The way of our generation. If you follow my old way, you will not be able to transcend my way.
You alone may be able to open up a path, but it is absolutely impossible to pile up all the reasons from low to high. Even if you do it by force, it will be a castle in the air. It will fall down at the first push and will only make people laugh."
The white-clothed monk thought thoughtfully and said: "If I follow your words, I will definitely achieve nothing if I learn your method, unless I put aside my old ways and start a new one?"
Zhengqing Taoist said: "Your own existence is the truth, and you should find your own way. Unfortunately, you abandon the basics and pursue the last, but instead seek the way of Taoists. It can be said that you are on the wrong path. If you want to find the way, you have to give up yourself.
Originally, you should seek it as a pure Taoist, or you should seek it from your fellow men and yourself."
The white-clothed monk's eyes were flickering, and his aura was rising and falling, rising and falling erratically. However, Taoist Zhengqing's words completely denied the significance of his climb, but he still made a lot of sense.
After a while, he raised his head and suddenly asked, "Since I took the wrong path, why are you telling me this? Wouldn't it be better to watch me continue to make mistakes?"
Taoist Zhengqing looked at him and said, "That's because I have never met an evil god like you before. I also want to see what evil gods like you will look like after they understand the truth."
The monk in white looked at him and said with a strange expression: "Aren't you afraid of creating a powerful enemy by doing this?"
Taoist Zhengqing said calmly: "Why should I be afraid of this? Regardless of whether you have attained Taoism or not, in my opinion, you are nothing more than a pile of dust that can be easily swept away."
