The red sand is rolling, and it is extremely desolate. The ruins of a charred ruined city stand silently across the sky and the earth.
The reason why the gravel has a brownish-red color is because it was soaked in endless blood not long ago!
The city foundation is vast, and the standing ruins are no more than a hundred feet tall and are made of huge rocks.
The wall is covered with mottled marks after burning. The magma has long cooled down, and it is like the remains of a huge creature after death, spreading out in sight, with no edges visible at a glance...
In the distant sky, a milky-white light pillar rose into the sky, and not long after, three figures appeared in this area, including two monks, one large and one small, and a handsome young man.
It was Liu Shuzhu and three others who wanted to go to Damingwang Temple.
After seeing the endless ruins in front of him, Monk Yanji clasped his hands together and chanted: "My Buddha is merciful, this is Linglong City, the former Linglong City."
Liu Shuzhu and the little monk Ruzhen were moved one after another!
As a famous large city in the Western Desert, Linglong City has a history of more than 10,000 years.
Nowadays, all that remains are dilapidated and desolate ruins...
I'm afraid that within a few years, this place will be gradually swallowed up by the surging sand tide, buried deep in the dust, and forgotten by the world.
After crossing the city wall, we can no longer see the scene when the city was prosperous, and we can no longer find a complete brick.
The city is covered with corpses, rotten bones are everywhere, and the blood is soaring to the sky!
Liu Shuzhu couldn't bear it in his eyes. He was stunned for a moment and murmured to himself: "The spirit dragon is reincarnated as a spirit dragon. The horns on its head are jingling. It can spit fire and burn the sky. How many times have its reverse scales angered the gods... It's a pity, it's a pity."
On that day, Linglong Emperor died to express his ambition and sang this verse. The tragic sound was like morning bells and evening drums, ringing in everyone's heart!
It's a pity that what he faced was the thieves; it's a pity that as the Emperor of Perfection, what can he do?
"Does the road to the Great Emperor need to be so ruthless? Does the majesty of the Thief Sect really need to kill hundreds of millions of innocent mortals to maintain it?"
There was no trace of emotion in Monk Yanji's tone: "On the way here, the poor monk heard that Linglong City had been overthrown. However, according to rumors, the Qi thieves' details were not revealed, and they also suffered heavy casualties. Linglong City
The first deputy city lord, his mount Iron-backed Silver Armored Dragon, and several Emperors of Destruction have all broken through the encirclement and fled the northwest region of the desert."
In fact, not only the Spirit Dragon City, the Pingding City, the Wan Yang City, the Four Jue City... all the cities that were involved with the Spirit Dragon Emperor have been eradicated by the forces of the Stolen Sect during this period of time!
Many small and medium-sized towns that relied on big cities for survival also suffered.
Along the way, the three of them saw no less than a hundred recently abandoned city ruins. There was only a little smoke left, all living things were devastated, and the surrounding areas were in chaos!
When the thieves were angry, all the cities were massacred.
How could this extremely awe-inspiring killing intent prevent the desert warriors from talking about thieves?
On that day, during the battle when the Skeleton King was born, among the many city lords and emperors, only the Four Emperors escaped using the teleportation formation. Now it seems that many deputy city lords of Linglong City also survived, and these true martial masters will definitely not give up.
, once they gather in one place, they can also cause a lot of trouble to burglars.
"From the moment the Buddha's shadow came to this world, the Western Desert has been in chaos, and it even indicates that a great disaster is coming." Monk Yanji looked up at the sky and said.
Five days have passed since we left the Ouyang family's small oasis.
In the past few days, Monk Yanji evolved a large magic circle four times, crossing millions of miles each time. The rest of the time, he stopped to recover his strength or calculate his position.
In short, they have crossed a large area. But the three of them are still in the northwest of the desert, still quite far away from the giant city!
As for how far it was, Liu Shuzhu simply didn't bother to ask.
The great method of crossing the void is a relic of ancient times, especially the large-scale formations, which are too profound and difficult to understand. He is not yet able to study them in detail.
After the last time he mentioned the issue of Buddhism as a 'pagan religion', Monk Yanji just told him that according to the speculations of powerful people in the past, the nature of Buddha was not human, but no other helpful information was obtained.
Buddha is not human!
During the journey, Liu Shuzhu kept sorting out the thoughts in his mind, but he was still full of questions and had no idea where to start.
In the underground fairy tomb, the corpse of the Fairy Queen transformed into the temple of Buddhas; in the late ancient times, the Great Wish Bodhisattva suppressed the soul of the king in the ancient places of the five directions, and created for him the amazing spectacle of burying the Buddha with a monument in the sky; one of the five ancient places
The Buddha Burial Temple, the unusual green lantern Buddha shadow...
Do these questions really indicate that the so-called ‘turbulence of heaven and earth’ is coming, as the monk Yanji said?
…
In the inter-city ruins below, there are longing figures, but it is a bit lively. The innate warriors are going up and down in this area, looking for something in the ruins!
After looking at it for a moment, they understood what they were looking for.
Each city has its own unique heritage. Although it has been robbed by thieves, there will inevitably be omissions. For them, it is a rare opportunity to advance to the throne. Many people hope to find treasures and spiritual weapons that have not been destroyed.
, make a lot of money from dead people.
Everything he saw was dark red, and Liu Shuzhu couldn't bear it: "Does Buddhism not care about such a cruel thing?"
Monk Yanji shook his head and said: "The foundation of Buddhism is too far away from here, and the calamity of heaven and earth is approaching. Even if you want to take care of it, you are powerless." After hearing this, Liu Shuzhu sneered lightly and did not answer. He didn't know if he had any idea about the teachings of Buddhism.
Feeling deeply ashamed.
Seeing his expression, Yanji said again: "This is the world. Whether you hate it or love it, there is life and death, there is strength and there is weakness. Life and death are impermanent, and the weak eat the strong. The Buddhist philosophy is gone.
How much is it worth?"
No matter what time or world we are in, this is the eternal truth. Where there are people, there will be disputes.
"...Buddhist Dharma claims to save all sentient beings in the sea of suffering, but when it comes to truth, it may not be able to save the world from danger. Even if the Buddha comes again, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it. Our sect has a long way to go, and its responsibility does not fall here. I'm afraid it will
If it falls into a deeper place, we lay monks cannot bear it."
Buddhism ranks first among the ten sects, but its power is extremely dispersed and spreads widely across the four major regions of Zhongzhou. Except for the support of a golden Arhat, the foundation of the three major temples in the West Desert may not be much stronger than that of the Pirate Sect.
Moreover, there are five overlords above the ten sects. They are the most powerful forces in Zhongzhou and are qualified to be the rulers of the world!
A hegemonic force will not emerge easily.
Liu Shuzhu said: "Isn't there still the great monk Huifan in Buddhism? If he is determined to attack the thieves, and with the dignity of a golden Arhat, he will use all his strength to kill the thieves, Perfection, how can he still not be able to kill him?"
"Of course I can!" Young monk Ruzhen glared and said, "With the ability of the Sixth Patriarch, even if he really loses 90% of his combat power, if he wants to take action, he can kill Yuan Chengquan with just a snap of his fingers!"
"How many people can be killed by killing to stop killing?" Monk Yanji's tone was not necessarily very sure. "Those who kill people will always kill them. This method may not be the way of our ancestors. Patriarch Hui Fan is widely known in the world.
It’s not that I don’t see a lot of suffering, it’s just that I have a weak heart and just pretend to be good.”
His words are not unreasonable. Hui Fan Arhat has a transcendent identity, and may be running for the secrets of the last years of ancient times.
Liu Shuzhu knew it was reasonable, but he always suppressed an air of injustice in his chest. He wanted to ask that Huifan Arhat himself - if you don't do good deeds because they are small, what is the use of great deeds!?
The main responsibility for the destruction of more than a dozen big cities lies in the fact that the Linglong Emperor did not underestimate his own capabilities and had to take action against the weak Qin Mubai, thus causing this disaster.
However, life was ruined and mortals were reduced to rotten bones under their feet. Liu Shuzhu inevitably felt a little guilty.
In his opinion, Qin Mubai was caused by him, and these tragedies were directly related to the old devil. If the Skeleton King had not been born, these things might not have happened!
He cannot escape the blame for the deaths of these people.
…
"Hahaha... I only used one blow to cut the entire street in half at the waist. After the intestines and stomach were broken, these pig-dog-like mortals were crawling around on the ground. It took a long time to
Qi Jue, it seems that the power of the second-grade spiritual weapon is indeed extraordinary!"
"No matter how many mortals you kill, it's just like slaughtering pigs and dogs. There's nothing to show off. The three of us joined forces to kill a second-level heavenly warrior. That's exciting!"
A burst of unbridled conversation floated far away with the wind.
More than twenty of Qi's disciples were rummaging through the ruins for possible lost treasures while showing off to each other what they had done during the massacre. The content of the conversation was outrageous, but they laughed and cursed at each other, as if they were very proud of themselves.
"Hey, when we entered the city, the wife and daughter of the city gate official were really two beauties. The dozen of us brothers were almost squeezed dry by the two of them, and our cultivation was almost destroyed! That city gate official
I could only watch helplessly, but I was so angry that I exploded to death, haha..."
Most of these people are the lowest-level descendants of the Qi thief. They may be from peripheral bloodlines, or they may not have the surname Qi themselves, but are just subordinates of the thief sect to survive, but they form the bottom cornerstone of the thief sect.
The lower the sand bandits are, the more they will be hated!
Hearing those actions that were outraged by both humans and gods, Liu Shuzhu frowned angrily and said with a vicious look on his face: "Master Yanji's words are true. People will always kill murderers. If they can kill them, so can I!"
Buzz~
The golden glow of the Juechen Pearl was so powerful that it fell from the sky, like a falling star, dragging its light golden tail and pressing directly towards those dozens of people!
In an instant, six or seven people were smashed below, their bones and flesh turning into mud.
The remaining people were horrified by the sudden change and hurriedly fled around!
