The Tang Empire was an empire in the Central Plains. To the north was the vast expanse of grassland belonging to the Golden Horde. To the west was the Yuelun Kingdom, bounded by Congling Ridge. To the northeast was the Tang State's old enemy, the Dayan Empire, and to the south was the Qing Dynasty.
The gorge faces the second largest country, the Southern Jin Dynasty, across the vast swamp.
Without exception, these countries are all Xiling countries.
Xiling is the most special country. Because it is where the Haotian Taoist General Altar is located. It is a divine kingdom formed by the gathering of Haotian believers. Its own territory is not many and not large, but its influence spreads all over the world, except for the Tang Dynasty.
Even the kings of other countries are their followers.
The core of power in Xiling is the Xiling Temple, which implements the separation of three powers. The Guangming Palace represents Haotian's character and is the most devout believer. The Tianyu Academy represents Haotian's wisdom and is responsible for educating the world. The Adjudication Department represents power and controls the dark disks all over the world.
and hundreds of thousands of holy cavalry.
The three departments of Taoshan each have their own powers. The Guangming Palace represents Haotian's character, the Adjudication Department represents strength, and the Tianyu Academy represents wisdom.
The three powers are separated, and there is another leader in the middle. This configuration is quite interesting.
Originally, the three great priests were supreme, but there were many conflicts and no one accepted the other. Later, a headmaster was elected to ease the conflicts, but who wanted to be a mascot? So the thousand-year internal fighting began.
Today, the power of the Headmaster has been vaguely superior to that of the Third Division. Although the Third Division still manages its own affairs, the Judgment Division is already in the hands of the Headmaster.
The contemporary headmaster Xiong Chumo still has some skills. The black disks of the Judgment Division are all over the world. He has black-clad deacons and sacred cavalry under his command. He has military power in his hands. He has already succeeded more than half of the way.
The Great Priest of Guangming, Wei Guangming, is imprisoned in You Pavilion because of the case at General Xuanwei's Mansion. The Guangming Palace exists in name only.
Not to mention a bunch of literary bags in Tianmangyuan, they are just trying to protect themselves. They have always disliked the Adjudication Division and have been fighting openly and secretly, but they have also given the headmaster a chance.
The power configuration of the separation of three powers is to check and balance each other. Without anyone, it will not work. Now that there are more leaders, there is no difference if the Guangming Palace is missing.
But the Hall of Light is still the most unique existence.
Taoshan is like spring all year round. Peach blossoms are in full bloom all over the mountain. There are no clouds in the sky. The sun shines gently on your face, like a spring breeze.
This is a pure land of light, a sacred territory.
The majestic and solemn palaces are connected one after another, and people can be seen praying under the majestic light symbols from time to time.
Holy cavalry in full armor, deacons and believers covered in black robes, this is a religious capital. Unlike the Tang Dynasty where people lived and worked in peace and contentment, everything here seemed solemn and pious.
"The power of incense and faith!"
It was completely different from Washan. At this moment, a clear and vast incense wish appeared in the Guangming Hall, which was so huge that it was incredible.
"Yes, Haotian harvests once every thousand years, and the incense power here is estimated to have accumulated for thousands of years."
Yan Qingyun followed a black-clothed priest to the Guangming Palace. This time he took Xiahou's key and came here just to enter the Guangming Palace. Above the main hall, everyone had faded away, leaving only one gatekeeper.
"What's your name?"
"No name, no real name!" Yan Qingyun said slowly.
"I am the nameless priest!" the gatekeeper snorted coldly: "You are also nameless? Who are you from Xiahou!"
"Everything will be clear when we meet Wei Guangming!" Yan Qingyun said slowly.
"Okay, come with me!" You Pavilion is the darkest place in the entire Taoshan Mountain. It is located under the abyss where the sun cannot be seen. At this moment, Yan Qingyun followed the nameless priest to a cell, where a thin old man was locked up.
, but his eyes are still clear and hale and hearty.
"Master, Xiahou asked him to come to see you!" the unknown priest whispered.
Wei Guangming looked at him indifferently, with a hint of surprise gradually appearing, because Yan Qingyun in front of him walked lightly into the cell. This cell was naturally not very strong, but it had a large cage array set up by the master himself.
, ordinary people can't get in at all, but Yan Qingyun got in.
Still entering it easily, after narrating some words, Wei Guangming's face showed a look of horror and astonishment: "Is everything you said true?"
"With your ability, you can naturally judge the truth and falsehood!" Yan Qingyun said slowly: "You can return to the embrace of Haotian."
"Then what are you going to do?" Wei Guangming asked.
"Since you have nothing to do with it, I hope you can keep your promise!" Yan Qingyun said lightly: "I want to be the Great Priest of Light!"
"Okay!" Wei Guangming did not object, a terrifying light emerged around him, and the Fan Cong Divine Formation in front of him was easily broken through.
"Master?" The nameless priest's face changed suddenly. No one has ever been able to escape from the You Pavilion, but today two people appeared one after another and could ignore the master's Fanlong Divine Formation.
The moment Wei Guangming broke through the Fanlong Divine Formation, the headmaster naturally felt something.
They came out of You Pavilion, and a large number of temple cavalry came in a hurry, but no one could stop Wei Guangming, who was shining brightly at this moment.
Wei Guangming confirmed what Yan Qingyun said. He broke through all five realms in one day, his cultivation level continued to rise, he sensed the Haotian he had sensed all his life, and finally confirmed that everything was true.
"master!"
"Great Priest!"
Even though he has been imprisoned for many years, the Great Priest of Light is still the Great Priest of Light.
Wei Guangming looked at Yan Qingyun with complicated eyes: "You are right, and I am right too. From now on, you are the new Great Priest of Guangming!"
A Guangming reading disc, representing the location of the unique token of the Great Priest of Guangming, fell into Yan Qingyun's hands.
"What?"
"master!"
The three great priests each have their own inheritance methods. The Great Priest of Heavenly Mandate can inherit the Oracle of Haotian and is selected under the guidance of Haotian. The Great Priest of Judgment relies on the cruel inheritance method of killing the previous Great Priest of Judgment, and the Great Priest of Guangming is the most unique.
He was directly appointed by the previous Great Priest of Guangming. No matter who he was or where he came from, Guangming's choice would not be wrong.
After the inheritance ended, Wei Guangming's figure slowly faded away. He was welcoming death and returning to Haotian's emergence. The ascension that the Taoist sect pursued was actually entering the Haotian Kingdom and becoming Haotian's food.
Yan Qingyun quietly opened the Unbounded Demonic Eyes, and the unique ability to transform realms emerged. Wei Guangming returned not to the Haotian Divine Kingdom, but to his imaginary number space.
In this life, Wei Guangming has understood the light, read the Taoist scriptures, and learned the magical arts. All his insights are reproduced in the imaginary number space. Haotian likes to devour souls, and if his divine eye space wants to evolve, it naturally needs to
Continuously fill in the rules of understanding.
"See the Great Priest of Guangming!" The nameless priest is the most fanatical believer of Guangming, or the Guangming Palace. Although I don't know why Wei Guangming made such a choice, this is the most orthodox inheritance of the Xiling Guangming Palace, and Yan
Qingyun is the orthodox successor of the Great Priest Guangming.
However, this kind of inheritance makes many people unconvinced, such as the headmaster, the judge, and Prince Longqing, the son of light in Xiling.
