Chapter 489: Seeking Common Ground While Reserving Differences

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

With Kong Haobin's wild villa as the core, within a radius of half a mile, it has now been completely filled and covered by the surging golden flames and endless brilliant golden rays. In the trance, there is a faint view of the heavenly court, the wonderful land of the spiritual mountain, the palace, the ceiling, the golden lamp, the jade dew, the Yingluo, the colorful glow, etc., the fairy music is fluttering, the Sanskrit singing is ethereal, and the hymn is loud and bright. Countless gods and phantoms shuttle back and forth, or for the Tao, or for the Buddha, or for the Heavenly King, or for King Kong, there are also images of Erlang God, Sun Wukong, Nezha Third Prince, Zhong Kui, etc., and even Confucian saints with wide sleeves and wings...... From time to time, I saw the divine soldiers descending from the sky, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and I heard the wind and thunder, thunderbolts in the sky, and the sound of the tsunami and landslide was shockingly discolored, and the major gods were angry and changed color, and roared loudly. Like a mountain, like a sea, like a hell, the divine light penetrates the heavens and the earth, causing the heavens to change color, and the earth is shaking!

"This is **naked blasphemy, and it is an illusion of a false god to tempt people to go to hell!" At the edge of the sea of golden light, more than a dozen people who looked like Western clergy changed color when they saw this. Especially when he saw the angels of light in the sea of light, and even the images of the Virgin Mary and Jesus, his face was even more pale, and he opened his mouth to scold.

As the missionary in charge of the Holy See in charge of the mission in the East, Bishop Agnette hated only two forces: the military regime in northern China, which nominally proclaimed religious freedom but in fact imposed numerous severe restrictions on various religious forces, and the other was the consistent way of propagating the unity of the five religions and trying to bring all the churches in China under control of Christians and Catholics. In a way, the latter is more absurd and abhorrent than the former. He had endured extreme discomfort and studied the so-called "Consistent Tao Sutra", and fully understood that the apocryphal things in it were extremely absurd and far-fetched, such as the Virgin Mary going to Yaochi to participate in the group of immortals, and congratulating the lifeless old mother on her birthday.

"Hmph, it is only in a barbaric and backward country like the East that there are cults that blaspheme our Lord and tamper with the Bible, such as the 'Taiping Heavenly Kingdom' and the 'Consistent Dao'!" Bishop Agnet cursed in his heart. This time, he and his knights were invited to eradicate an important figure in the north because of the generous promises of the Nanjing political axe to expand the church, expand the diocese and the scope of the mission, but they did not expect that there were also important people involved in the Tao, and it was likely that the other Pope personally took action.

"May God forbid you, let all these blasphemers die together, and they will bite together and roll down to hell!" Although the other party is evil, the devil's power he has is really extraordinary. Not only did all the personnel in the Jinhai shroud lose contact, but every divine reconnaissance method was thrown into the sea like mud cattle, and there was no response.

"Lord Bishop Agnit, I have never doubted your loyalty to the Lord. However, pinning one's hopes on the Lord and blindly praying for the Lord to send down miracles is obviously not what a qualified servant of the Lord should do!" But a person next to him seemed to see through what he was thinking, and opened his mouth to reproach: "The majesty of God does not tolerate blasphemy, and as the most loyal servants of the Lord, we must make this group of blasphemers pay the price with practical actions!"

"Your wisdom has awakened me from my astray, honorable Father O'Conlis. ”

Bishop Agnit, as the head of the Chinese diocese, had only cardinals above him, but now he bowed his noble head to a middle-aged priest dressed in a coarse linen priest's robe, who looked extremely ordinary, and who looked a little trembling in the cold rain and dew of the night. And several people who followed him bowed their heads and repented together.

"You are afraid, and the magic of the false gods has shaken your faith in the Lord. O'Conris, bowing his head slightly, gently admonished, "You must know that all those who belong to the outer ways are like grass, and his power is like a flower on grass." The grass will wither, the flowers will wither, but the way of the Lord will live forever!"

"Let's rush in and slash those heretics under the sword!" Captain Jodes was inspired by the other party's words, and his fighting spirit was high, and immediately the knight's sword was unsheathed, and he was about to rush into the sea of golden light in front of him.

"No, the Lord's test for us includes wisdom in addition to strength and courage!" Father O'Conrist smiled and shook his head, "Know that evil always kills each other. The best time for us to make a move is not now, but at the moment when they lose both sides and decide the winner. During this time, we should be well prepared. ”

As he spoke, the priest somehow had an old parchment manuscript Bible in his hand, turning page by page in the cold wind and rain. The pages are full of dense annotations, and it can be seen that they are the result of his decades of hard work and wisdom. The priest with the manuscript of the Bible is solemn, holy and humble.

"Knight Captain Jodes, do you have the determination to dedicate a qiē to the Lord, sacrifice a qiē, even if you return to the Lord's embrace in the next moment?" As the Bible was turned, the priest's voice was gentle and firm, and even the sound of wind and thunder and lightning and thunder could not be concealed from the sea of golden light.

"This is my supreme glory!" Jodes stood straight with his sword in his chest, his whole body like a monument of justice and battle.

"All right!" the Bible flipped quickly, finally stopping on a page with a glorious sword drawn.

"I, O'Conris, as the most faithful servant of my Lord, on behalf of my Lord, bestow upon the Knight of Jodes the Holy Power to defeat evil!"

With a prayer, the page of the Bible with the sacred sword painted on it suddenly disappeared, and correspondingly, the long sword in Jodes's hand suddenly gave birth to a brilliant pillar of holy light, which pierced through the clouds and crossed the heavens and the earth, as if the entire sky could be split in two with a single swing of the sword.

"Sword of Divine Punishment?" all the clergy present exclaimed in surprise when they saw this, but they didn't expect O'Conlix to bless Joodes's saber with the top-level divine magic that even most cardinals needed to join forces to cast - the "Sword of Divine Punishment" just by flipping the Bible.

But that's not all, as the Bible continues to turn and another page disappears, Jodes has another glorious armor that exudes a sense of boundless power and heaviness.

This is the Armor of God's Blessing!

Immediately after, Jodes lifted his feet off the ground and floated in the air. And under his crotch, there is already a war horse composed of light, incomparably majestic, with wings on its back and a single horn on its head, carrying him up.

This is the Celestial War Horse!

Today's Knight Chief Jodes is like an angel who is fully armed by the artifact of heaven and has returned from heaven to punish the evil in the world, and his indescribable glory and majesty cannot be looked at directly.

After blessing each other with three top-level divine magic spells in a row, even Father O'Conlix showed obvious exhaustion, but he still blessed the remaining clergy with "divine blessings" one by one, and warned everyone: "The Lord is omnipotent, and the Lord is invincible." But the extent to which you can wield the power given by the Lord depends entirely on your courage and faith. Only when you are firm enough can the sword in your hand be truly invincible!"

Everyone agreed, their eyes full of fanaticism and reverence. You must know that this land is still a place where the Lord's brilliance is beyond reach, and although personal white magic can still be wielded normally, all divine magic that involves communicating with the Lord and praying to the Lord for strength will be greatly reduced. But Father O'Conriz was still able to wield the power of the Lord to such an extent, which is a testament to the fact that he is a saint through and through!

"Look for the opportune moment, do not be afraid, do not waver, but punish evil. I will always be there for you and support you at all times. With that, Fr. O'Conriz turned the Bible again, and the dazzling light that bloomed from the Bible enveloped him, and then he disappeared into the light.

…………………………………… Not to mention the Heavenly Fury Divine Punishment shown to the outside of the Golden Light Divine Domain, in the villa at its core, it is simply "today's weather, hahaha......". Lu Zhongyi, Wang Zong, and Zhang Yuanfang not only did not continue to do it, but they were in harmony, as the so-called "friends come from afar, and they are happy", but they almost didn't stage a night talk.

In fact, these three people still have friendships: Lu Zhongyi and Liankong once generously pointed out Wang Zong's "Please God**", and Wang Zong and Saito Yi also helped each other to advance to the top grade and invite God. In addition, Wang Zong had helped Zhang Enbo in Europe and the Celestial Master Sect elder who was mistakenly reincarnated as a half-race Simon, and Zhang Yuanfang also revealed to Wang Zong some of the exercises of "Pure Yang Purple Qi" to help him solve the problem of Xuan Kui's corpse blood. Coupled with the side-by-side battles when they were in Tanglin, if there was no extreme conflict of interest, there was indeed no need to tear the skin.

The difference in the positions of China's north and south is certainly a contradiction, but it is far from the point where the two sides fight to the death. Although Zhang Yuanfang and Lu Zhongyi are still on the side of Nanjing based on practical interests, this position is not immutable, and if the north really sends the destiny of heaven, the people return to their hearts, and are willing to give them more flexible and tolerant policies and treatment, it is not impossible for them to consider changing their courts. In particular, the Heavenly Master Sect acquiesced in the transfer of Zhang Enbo and other disciples to the north, and did not condemn them and expel them from the sect, which was the idea of taking precautions. In addition, the deterrence of the Nanjing political axe against them is really very limited, and it is impossible to say who is more dependent on whom, let alone be able to impose sanctions on them. So even if it wasn't Wang Zong who came this time, but the weaker Gao Xiang, at most, they would just protect Kong Haobin and let Gao Xiang retreat in the face of difficulties, and they would not take Gao Xiang seriously as a killer, and they would lose hope of throwing themselves to the north, and they would be completely tied to death with the southern political axe.

Now that Wang Zong has shown his strength, he killed Kong Haobin under the protection of the two of them, which has certainly swept the faces of the two. But in retrospect, they let 6 Tao and Kong Haobin live freely in the south for two more years, so they were not sweeping the face of Gao Xiang and others. Therefore, these things can be regarded as having dealings, cause and effect are balanced, and everyone is a person of the Tao, so there is no need to worry about it, and it is laughable and generous.

In a certain way, this is also a tacit understanding and self-control initially formed by the warrior monks of the Tianren, Jindan, and Yuanying levels, and try to avoid life-and-death conflicts. It is also what Chen Ho is worried about: the mortal class will gradually form a solid alliance of interests in the future, and ordinary people must not only divide and balance them, but also ensure that there will be no "immortals fighting and mortals suffering", which is really difficult!

Now, although there are many southern secret agents and capable monks of other sects inside and outside this villa in advance, but as the divine domain of Lu Zhongyi unfolds, they are all possessed by the virtual image of the gods, and there is no room for resistance. Although Wang Zong and Zhang Yuanfang were able to act as if nothing had happened in the Divine Domain, there was no second celestial or primordial infant among these people after all.

"Is the Taoist going to ask me about the cultivation of "Please God**"?" At this time, Wang Zong listened to Lu Zhongyi's temptation, and just smiled and said: "Now I have no divine power in my body, God returns to God, and people return to people." The path of Shinto has little to do with me. ”

"Could it be that your divine power has been taken away from you? No...... My divine domain can't exert any influence on you now, there is a way that 'after the sea is difficult to water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud.' ’。 You have clearly passed the tribulation of becoming a god, and you will become a true god without destroying your golden body!" Lu Zhongyi is not a fool, and after thinking about it for a while, it suddenly became clear.

Since absorbing the founding dragon qi of a divine armor, as well as most of the last dragon qi of the Cixi throne, his current Golden Light Divine Domain is already a top-grade god realm, and because of the surname of the last dragon qi, he is the best at erosion and assimilation. Although Zhang Yuanfang's Yuanying realm can resist and is easy on the surface, he actually doesn't dare to be careless, he needs to be careful to keep the spirit platform empty at all times, and the operation of spells in the Golden Light Divine Domain will also be quite affected. However, Wang Zong turned a blind eye to his Golden Light Divine Domain, and the sword qi that came and went freely in the Divine Domain was no longer just explained by Wang Zong's high realm. Obviously, on the way of Shinto, Wang Zong has "washed away the flashiness and returned me to the truth", and the divine power below the true god does not want to have an impact on him.

With envy and jealousy in his heart, Lu Zhongyi still maintained his demeanor on the surface, and asked with a smile: "It's really gratifying." Poor Dao took the liberty to ask again, where is your immortal golden body's divine domain?"

This sentence is also exquisite, the god who has his own divine domain is the main god, although the size of the divine domain is different, and it is not necessarily separated from the world. If you don't have your own divine domain, and you trust it in the divine domain of others, you are from God. Although they are all true gods, the difference in status is like the difference between the king of a country and the general minister. The "Jade Emperor Road" in the middle of the road is too wide-ranging, and it has a divine domain early in the morning, so it can only achieve the main god, which is extremely difficult. However, Wang Zong only corresponds to the priesthood of martial arts and killing, which is relatively simple, and it is many times easier to attach to a certain god domain and become a slave god. However, there is no true god in Huaxia now, and Wang Zong seems to have only one way left to hug the thigh of a foreign god.

"My divine domain is not in this world. Wang Zong's answer was once again beyond the expectations of the road, "I once shuttled with divine thoughts, and luckily appeared in a world with extremely strong martial arts beliefs, so I sent the immortal golden body away, and became a true god after many calamities in that world." ”

The lightness of this answer is actually the same as someone asking Bill Gates why you can become rich in the world, and he replied that it was inconvenient for me to open the window system because I was inconvenient now. Lu Zhong was dumbfounded when he heard this, half-convinced, and could only shake his head and smile bitterly for a while.

Wang Zong also knew what Lu Zhongyi was anxious about, although Lu Zhongyi was far more solemn and graceful than Zhang Yuanfang on the surface of the fairy wind and bones. But in fact, Wang Zong relied on his true state of mind that was not affected by the illusion of the divine realm and the slightest sense of life vitality, and sensed the rotten aura of an old man permeating his body in the middle of the road. You must know that "Please God**" can't make people live forever, and Lu Zhongyi's own cultivation has not even reached the congenital level, Shouyuan can't compare to the heavenly people or Jindan and Yuanying monks at all, and now Shouyuan is about to end, so he can only stay in his own god domain, relying on the god domain to interfere with reality, and barely keep his current state, which is essentially equivalent to sitting in a prison city, and he needs to consume divine power at all times, which is extremely uncomfortable.

Although Lu Zhongyi can also abandon his physical body and entrust all his divine thoughts to the immortal golden body, but without the foundation of his body, even the Divine Domain can not continue to reside in the human world, and can only entrust the Void, but he has not become a true god, and the Void Divine Domain cannot steadily accept the world's faith incense, and it is difficult to show miracles in the world, and it will only weaken and die quickly, which is really a dilemma.

"Dao Elder doesn't believe me?" Wang Zong saw Lu Zhongyi's embarrassment and doubts, and had the heart to show him another way, so he spoke: "I once stole an artifact of the Egyptian god of death and robbed it of the divine power, so that I have the power to shuttle through the void. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be stealing divine power, although it is dangerous, but it is also a shortcut. Lu Zhong bowed slightly, and his doubts in his heart disappeared a lot, but he didn't show any eagerness. Although I know that it is also a road, but how many exotic gods can be dealt with to the current situation?

Seeing this, Wang Zong asked: "The Taoist wants to become a god according to the right path, but if this is the case, he must make his teachings and deeds fit the right path in the world." But does the Taoist now have the confidence that his teachings are in line with the right path of the world?"

"Why not?" Lu Zhong was displeased when he heard this, and said coldly: "I teach the essence of the five religions and merge them into one, and there is a way:

Confucianism: Keep your surname in mind, be consistent in your heart, and be loyal and forgiving.

Taoism: Cultivating the heart and refining the surname, holding the yuan and keeping one, and talking about kindness.

Buddhism: Seeing the surname with a clear heart, the unity of all laws, and talking about compassion.

Yahism: Wash your heart and change your surname, silently pray for your family, and talk about fraternity.

Islam: Firm in the surname, halal return to one, and compassion.

Those who have been taught by me should respect heaven and earth, worship the gods, be filial to their parents, respect their teachers, believe in friends, and neighbors, be patriotic and loyal, worship and worship the virtues, and explain the five virtues. Nowadays, many officials in the south have joined our religion, and the officials who have joined the religion need to be diligent in government and love the people, and be respected and loved by all the people, so that they can be in a good state of mind, and only then can they be diligent in their cultivation, and they can even be promoted to the god position and enjoy incense after enjoying their days; and the people who have joined the religion are also law-abiding and respectful to the officials; in this way, with one heart and one mind, with faith in their hearts, and abiding by the ancient customs, is the way to strengthen the country and enrich the people. Could it be that only by integrating the military and the government like you in the north, disrespecting ghosts and gods, not respecting saints and sages, trampling on faith, and one day saying that morality will decline and civilization will no longer be the right way in the world?"

Although the sects of the two sides are different, but in terms of their attitude towards the northern regime, Zhang Yuanfang and Lu Zhongyi have a common language, and said at the right time: "I look at the northern regime, although it has made miraculous achievements on the way to strengthen the army, but it is too eager to achieve quick success, and the administration is too harsh and harsh. Mr. Wang now thinks that the north represents the right path in the world, which is too arbitrary!"

"There is some truth in what the two of you said, but I have a preconceived idea. Wang Zong thought about it when he heard this, and if he had followed the "normal" history, the northern regime would have naturally been far more advanced than the south, but this kind of progress would not have been able to completely distinguish between superior and inferior in just over a dozen years. Now the north is still living in the most painful stage at the beginning of industrialization, the people are very heavy, work-related injuries and mining disasters emerge in an endless stream, in terms of people's livelihood, compared with the south, it is 50 steps and 100 steps, but the victory is that there is no famine and banditry, and the people are relatively stable.

Coupled with the fact that there is still a history of the intervention of mortal forces and ghost and god factors, Chen Ho's actions are too radical and he is still unable to deal with this aspect of the problem. The regime in the South may be decadent and backward, but it is not necessarily without some merits. At present, Zhang Yuanfang and one or two people in the road are not knowing that they are wrong, but they also have their own beliefs and political opinions, and in their opinion, they are also on the right side.

"We think that the North and the South are still not invading each other, and it is better for each to show off on its own. In the future, we will not be able to stop the general trend of humanity. Zhang Yuanfang said a word of mention, but he didn't see Wang Zong's clear objection, and said with a smile: "I wait for the upper body to be the heart of heaven, and it is not appropriate to get too involved in the red dust, so the difference in political opinions is only the last section." At present, we still need to work together and cultivate diligently, so as to cope with the opening of the Qin Tomb and the arrival of the ancestral dragon in the future. Nowadays, many foreign monks have also heard the news and have their own plans. We must not be in the same room, let the five ancient Chinese merit holy weapons in the Qin Tomb fall into the hands of outsiders, so that we have become sinners in China through the ages. ”

"Five Meritorious Sacred Weapons?" Wang Zong asked in surprise.

"It's no wonder that Mr. Wang doesn't know that only the sects that have been inherited from the Qin and Han dynasties know a little about the five holy weapons. However, its specific whereabouts are also that the Kunlun resident immortal, the Ziyuan Fairy, specially informed my Heavenly Master Sect not long ago, and ordered us to contact the major sects in China through this. Zhang Yuanfang smiled a little proudly, and explained: "It is Nuwa Stone, Suiren Drill, Shennonghe, Xuanyuan Sword, and Dayu Ding." Among them, the 'Nuwa Stone' belongs to the soil, and it is rumored that Nuwa Niangniang pinched the soil for people, refining stones to make up for the sky, all from this stone. 'Suiren Drill' belongs to fire, which is a holy weapon used by the Suiren clan of the Three Emperors to drill wood for fire and dissolve the fishy shame. 'Shennong He' belongs to the wood, also known as 'Nine Spike He', it is rumored that when Emperor Yan, there is a Danque title of Nine Spike He, its fall to the ground, the emperor and pick it up, to plant in prison, the eater is old and does not die, so this He is also the beginning of Chinese farming. 'Xuanyuan Sword' belongs to gold, and it is the instrument used by Emperor Xuanyuan to conquer the Quartet and lay the foundation of Yanhuang. 'Dayu Ding' belongs to water, it is rumored that Dayu is called king because of the work of controlling the water, and it is cast with the gold of the world's nine animal husbandry.

The Five Sacred Vessels contain innate creation and supreme merit. At that time, Zulong took the Five Sacred Weapons as his own, intending to use them as a base to refine the Five Elements and become a realm of his own, but unfortunately he failed in the end, and after his death, he was included in the Qin Tomb. If the Qin Tomb is reopened, the Five Sacred Vessels and many ancient treasures, and the documents held by the hundreds of schools of thought will reappear in the world, and any one of them will be obtained by outsiders, which will be a great loss. ”

Wang Zong only listened quietly, in the final analysis, this matter was just the words of Fairy Ziyuan alone, there was no empirical evidence, and I didn't know whether it was true or not. Moreover, it cannot be ruled out that Zhang Yuanfang specially threw it out to divert attention in order to ease the contradiction between the north and the south. However, Lu Zhongyi's eyes flickered when he heard it, and he was obviously very interested.

If what Zhang Yuanfang said was true, then Fairy Ziyuan also had the intention of integrating the Huaxia Cultivation Realm and using it to deal with the ancestral dragon. So whoever intends to cause trouble and create internal strife during this period of time is obviously having trouble with her.

Even if Zi Yuan's factor is not considered, Wang Zong's current strength does not have any advantage over the Southern Monks, although he can outperform Zhang Yuanfang and Lu Zhongyi and the two of them. But after all, there is a stronger Zhang Yuanxu in Longhu Mountain, and the two Zhang brothers each hold one of the "three or five male and female slashing evil swords", if the two swords join forces, I don't know what unimaginable magic will be revealed. In addition, there are two other Jindan monks in Longhu Mountain, and if they have to make a big move, it will not be of any benefit to both parties.

"All in all, at the moment, we have the same needs while we are different, first think about the outside, and then think about the inside. Lu Zhongyi finally made a summary, and smiled at Wang Zong: "For example, just this time, many foreign monks are extremely eager to take your surname. Poor Dao estimates that if we really fight to lose both, they don't mind taking the lives of Poor Dao and Zhang Zhenren together by the way. However, in the end, they were also invited by the Nanjing political axe, and it was inconvenient for the poor road to do it directly. After a while, if you meet a few idiots who don't know the current affairs, you might as well teach them a hard lesson, and it's best to get rid of them all, so that they know that I am not no one in Huaxia. ”

Wang Zong was slightly embarrassed when he heard this, knowing that this old way was obviously not a person with a strong sense of national honor and a firm national position, and the reason why he was filled with righteous indignation was basically only a matter of religious disputes and interests. And he naturally won't be provoked to be used as a gunman, but if someone really doesn't know each other and kills him, he won't be polite.

As the two sides agreed, a preliminary consensus was reached, and Lu Zhongyi also withdrew the Golden Light Divine Domain. In the spirit of "doing a full set of acts", the Golden Light Divine Domain moved quite a lot when it withdrew, only to see the sky and the earth cracking, the immortals bleeding, the gods falling, and the temple collapsing...... A group of gods were brutally defeated by the last words.

The Divine Domain had just been lifted, and in a roar like thunder, a huge white lightsaber had slashed across the sky from among the trees on the outskirts. Its white light is pure, dazzling, and magnificent. Wherever the sword went, the trees along the way shattered and scattered like a large pile of confetti that had been blown away, and a deep and wide trench was cracked in the ground in the sword qi, and sawdust and gravel flew up and were wrapped in the sword qi. It was like a divine thunder that had been brewing and condensed for thousands of years, and it rumbled towards Wang Zong, who had just emerged from the Divine Domain.

(To be continued)
