Buddhism and Chanjiao have successively taken up their positions, and they are all located in the Xibohou Mansion. Such movements will inevitably arouse the thoughts of those who are interested.
On Jin'ao Island, in a cave shrouded in clouds and mist, Mr. Xuwu and Taoist Duobao, who were sitting across from each other, frowned at the same time. They instinctively felt something bad about this situation.
Although both of them have achieved Taoism and are quasi-sages and are not involved in this great catastrophe, they cannot sit idly by when it comes to the plan to intercept the religion. This is especially true for Taoist Duobao.
From an emotional point of view, if something happens to the teacher's sect, he has no shirking responsibility. Whether he likes it or not, he may be involved in the catastrophe involuntarily. From a profit point of view, if Jie Jiao suffers heavy losses and his luck plummets, he will not hesitate to do so.
It is conducive to their cultivation and progress.
Back then, this was more important to Taoist Duobao. Although Lord Xuwu was also very active, most of it was just pretending. He had no feelings for Jie Jiao. As for his cultivation, he had memories of the Hunyuan Yuanshi realm.
and enlightenment, there is naturally no bottleneck. If it were not for the fear of arousing suspicion, he would have reached Sainthood Consummation long ago.
"Obviously Buddhism has settled in Xiqi, but Chanjiao has also chosen Xiqi. The meaning of this is intriguing. I wonder what my junior brother thinks?"
Although Taoist Duobao appears calm and calm on the face, he is still a little worried in his heart. The Jie Jiao tree attracts the wind. Although it is powerful, it has dominated the fate of the human race for a long time and squeezed the living space of other sects. Once there is an opportunity,
There must have been a lot of overt and covert targeting.
Of course Mr. Xu Wu knows what this means, and based on the original trajectory, this time the Conferred Gods vs. Jie Jiao will probably not be able to escape its original fate.
"Everything is driven by interests!" Mr. Xuwu sighed in his heart. It was actually foreseeable that things had come to this point. Even if there was no such thing as the Battle of the Gods, Jiejiao would have faced suppression by various religions.
It is really disgusting to eat alone, and I keep eating, one round after another, without giving other sects a chance.
Among the three emperors, Jie Jiao assisted the Emperor of Earth. Among the five emperors, Jie Jiao assisted the three emperors. Although the Xia Dynasty supported the emperor, Jie Jiao also helped, so naturally they were promised benefits, but the benefits were actually two.
The two were evenly divided. In the Shang Dynasty, which was completely dominated by Jiaojiao, there was almost no room for survival of Chanjiao, let alone Buddhism.
Under this situation, Yuanshi Tianzun has been able to tolerate it so far. It is very good. If he and Tongtian Cult Leader were not brothers and had many worries, they would have joined forces to attack Jie Cult.
Saints are immortal. There are not many things in the Three Realms that they can care about. The development of sects is the most important point. This is the extension and demonstration of their Tao. The stronger the sect, the more ubiquitous their Tao is, and the more
When people are influenced and believe in its teachings, they will have more luck. All these are directly related to the improvement of their cultivation.
No saint can let go of such vital interests, although Mr. Wu has always heard people say that Yuanshi Tianzun is eager for quick success, uses the big to bully the small, and unites with outsiders to deal with his own brothers. It is really unjust to see profit.
But he felt that Tongtian Cult Master was not much better. If he really cared about brotherhood so much, why wouldn't he give Chan Cult a share of the pie?
Of course, from the perspective of the leader of Tongtian Cult, becoming a state religion is about the disciples trying to achieve their goals. Everyone should rely on their own abilities and explain the incompetence of teaching disciples, and they cannot blame others.
But with such a business-like attitude, Yuanshi Tianzun can also say that he has hired foreign aid based on his own ability, and if you have the ability, you can also invite foreign aid.
This is just the thought in Mr. Xu Wu's mind, but now that he is in Jiejiao, no matter what his intentions are, he still has to follow Jiejiao's interests on the surface, so that he can stir up troubles and troubles even more.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "It is obvious that the idea of union between Chanjiao and Buddhism was initiated by the second uncle. I had told the teacher before that I was worried about the union of the religions, but the teacher did not believe that the second uncle would
Join forces with outsiders to deal with the brothers. Now, depending on the situation, I may have been unlucky to predict it."
Taoist Duobao's face darkened and he sighed: "Teacher is too emotional and always thinks too much of people. I'm afraid that even now, he doesn't believe this kind of judgment. If we say too much, it will be
You will be punished."
The King of Nothingness said: "But as disciples, we need to further remind him. If you know there is a problem but let it go because you are afraid of punishment, this is unfilial to the teacher and irresponsible to the teacher."
"That's right. As the senior brother of Jie Jiao, I can't just sit back and ignore the problem since I've seen it. I want to go talk to the teacher."
Taoist Duobao stood up and left, and Mr. Xuwu followed him, solemnly saying: "Elder brother, I will go with you. With more than one person, we can always have more confidence."
Taoist Duobao nodded and smiled, appreciating Lord Xuwu's behavior very much.
In fact, he didn't like Lord Xu very much at first. Firstly, this person once worshiped Patriarch Styx as his teacher, and his identity as a demon sect always made him unhappy. Secondly, Lord Xu was really good at it.
It’s not that he was born late, he is now a figure of the same level as Zhen Yuanzi.
Such a person enters Jiejiao. Although he is an outer disciple, he has superb cultivation and is good at dancing. He has a very high prestige without saying a word and is supported by a group of junior disciples. He has established a powerful figure without doing anything.
The top of the mountain poses a threat to his status.
Now the two of them have proven to be quasi-sages with both hands, forming a bipolar pattern in the Jie sect, one internal and one external. Overt and covert fights are everywhere. Although the inner disciples have high cultivation, the outer disciples have many people and have extensive contacts. In the outside world,
On the contrary, their influence is greater. They all gather under the banner of Lord Wu, and even if they do nothing, they still pose an invisible threat to his senior brother's authority.
But now that the great catastrophe is coming, everyone is just a grasshopper on the same rope. When we need to work together, a little fighting is nothing. The two of them can work together for the overall situation. Taoist Duobao thinks this is the blessing of Jiejiao.
.
The two came to Biyou Palace and were greeted by the Water and Fire boy. After hearing the two explain their intention, they went to see the leader of something important and went to report it. After a while, they came out and said that the master had invited them.
After the two of them entered the hall, the leader sat on the cloud bed. After the two of them kowtowed, he said with a smile: "You two, please see me at the same time. If you have anything to say, it doesn't matter."
Taoist Duobao said respectfully: "Buddhism and Chanjiao have successively settled on one of the princes. I wonder if I, the Jiejiao, can also make some arrangements?"
The leader said: "With this change of dynasty, my master must first consider how to survive the catastrophe of killing the gods. As for helping the princes to live in peace, and then becoming a state religion, I should wait a little longer."
Taoist Duobao understands what Master Tongtian means. If other princes want to compete for the world, they will inevitably confront the Shang Dynasty. When the time comes, the sects and immortals who support them will also confront the Jiejiao, and the killings will naturally proceed.
As long as the saint does not take action, the disciples of Jiejiao have high cultivation level, powerful spiritual treasures, and mysterious formations. They are not afraid at all. After killing a few people, the disaster is eliminated, and they can retreat directly. As for whether the Shang Dynasty will be destroyed or not, Tongtian Cult Master obviously
Don't care.
Sometimes the destiny of a mortal dynasty cannot be violated. The Shang Dynasty was destined to be destroyed. Leader Tongtian only wanted to complete the catastrophe of killing gods during the change of dynasties, but he never thought of going against heaven and protecting the Shang Dynasty to his death.
Although his teachings claim to intercept a glimmer of hope for life, how difficult is it for a dynasty that has ended its destiny to regain its vitality? To do such a thankless thing by force is not to intercept a glimmer of hope, but to be foolish.
The destiny of the dynasty is in the hands of the Emperor of Heaven. If you want to extend the life of the dynasty, you have to break the general trend of the Heavenly Way that the Emperor of Heaven acts on your behalf, or force the Emperor of Heaven to change his mind. But how difficult is it? He doesn't think anyone under the Dao Ancestor can do it.
Taoist Duobao also agrees with this strategy, but this may just be the wishful thinking of the leader of Tongtian. Will other sects miss this opportunity to weaken or even eliminate the Jiejiao? It is usually difficult to take action, but this time, with the help of the great catastrophe, it is just right.
Make a break once and for all.
In particular, the subtle alliance between Chanjiao and Buddhism cast a shadow over his mind. The second uncle's alliance with Buddhism was probably about the teacher's Immortal-killing Sword Formation.
"Teacher, although your words are good, our teaching is too deeply involved in the cause and effect of the Shang Dynasty, so it is not easy to escape. Moreover, the actions of the second master uncle the day before yesterday have to make the disciples think too much. What if the two master uncles and the second Buddhist monk
If the Holy Spirit joins forces, the situation will be extremely unfavorable to me."
The leader of Tongtian Cult frowned and said displeasedly: "It's just a killing of gods, how can it lead to the death of a saint himself? Furthermore, your two uncles and masters are both direct descendants of Xuanmen and brothers, so they will never join forces.
Treat outsiders as teachers."
Mr. Xuwu secretly sneered in his heart. Tongtian Cult Master believed that he valued emotions, and felt that Yuanshi Tianzun was the same as him, but it was obvious that Yuanshi Tianzun was more realistic. He may also value feelings, but he also valued interests.
When there is a conflict between the two, how to choose depends on whether the feelings are deep and whether the interests are great.
In other words, this is true for all creatures in the world. It is just a matter of preference between the two. If you prefer feelings more, you will not be moved by small profits. If you prefer interests more, as long as you have enough chips, you can let go of feelings and other things first.
On one side.
"Teacher, although I say so, I believe that only by being prepared can I avoid danger. I must not have the intention of harming others, and the intention of guarding against others is indispensable. After all, this is another calamity after the calamity measured by the lich.
We are at the center of the storm, and we still need to be prepared to deal with it. It would be best if such a thing does not happen, and if it is really unfortunate, we will not be helpless."
Leader Tongtian pondered for a long time, secretly thinking about the changes in the situation. Although he was a little emotional, he was not stupid. He knew that what his disciples said was reasonable and could not be completely ignored.
Thinking of the growing differences between himself and Yuanshi Tianzun since the separation of the Sanqing family, as well as the dispute in Zixiao Palace, and the ambiguous behavior between Yuanshi Tianzun and Buddhism, all made him have doubts. At this time, he was
When the disciples mentioned it, they couldn't help but pay some attention to it.
