Chapter 38: The Battle for Creation
"Bet big?"
"Dare to ask Qingyun Datianzun how he wants to gamble?"
Haotian's eyes exuded essence, for Haotian, there are indeed not many things that can interest him in this world.
Especially in today's Haotian era, as the lord of the Heavenly Court, there are very few living beings in the Pangu Continent who can go against his will.
Through fate, he put the human race in the shackles of the Heavenly Dao Qi Luck.
And so, everything went as he expected.
There were no surprises and no waves.
Although such a full sense of control can bring great satisfaction to Haotian, but after a long time, Haotian will also feel very boring.
So, he also hopes that some accidents will happen.
If this vast universe is invincible, what a lonely and boring thing it should be.
Lu Fengqiu raised his hand, and two lotus flowers, one black and one white, appeared in his hand.
One of these two lotus flowers is icy and holy, and the other is weird and unique.
When Lu Fengqiu took out these two lotus flowers, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the hall, and the bhikshus and arhats all showed surprises on their faces.
On the other hand, Duobao Rulai and Lead, there is no special look.
The golden lotus of merit under the throne is the treasure of the Western religion.
Later, it became the lotus platform under the seat of Duobao Rulai, which is an innate spiritual treasure that is unparalleled in defense.
Among the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Buddha Gate, there is hardly one of them who does not know the power of the lotus platform under the throne of the Buddha Nyorai.
It was precisely because they knew what a powerful treasure that the meritorious golden lotus was, that they were shocked that the seven great saints would actually gather the seven great saints to come to Lingshan and forcibly ask for the meritorious golden lotus.
Now, Lu Fengqiu actually took out two lotus flowers, one black and one white.
Under the throne of Duobao Rulai, none of the four great bodhisattvas is an ordinary person.
They all looked at the two lotus flowers, one black and one white, and felt the breath emanating from the two lotus flowers.
Venerable Guanyin sighed secretly in his heart: "Could it be that these two lotus flowers are the long-missing innate spirit treasure Extinction Black Lotus and Pure World White Lotus?" ”
"Such a treasure, how could it fall into the hands of the emperor alone."
"The Emperor's luck is so prosperous?"
"You must know that even if it is a Buddha, it can only sit on the golden lotus of merit."
Venerable Guanyin was extremely surprised in her heart, but her face was as quiet as possible, and her gaze swept over the saints in the hall slightly.
"Today, the eight saints led by the Emperor of the People came to Lingshan together, just to ask for the merit golden lotus, and there must be a great thing in this."
"What does the Emperor want to do?"
"What do these saints want to do when they join forces?"
Venerable Guanyin only felt a little chill in his back.
Although she is also a great supernatural power, after so many years, she is only a quasi-saint cultivator, and she still hasn't taken that step and attained the saintly fruit.
No one knew better than she how terrifying the clash of saints was.
Back then, although there were also saints who made a move, if it was compared to the battle of the new ancient times, it was just a small fight.
If these eight saints make a move against the Buddha in unison, it will be the Buddha and the Bodhi Buddha to strike together, and they will not be the opponents of these eight saints.
It's been many years since something like this has happened in Pangea.
The eight saints came out together, and it was terrifying.
This rookie emperor, what does he want to do?
Why don't you even tear your face and forcibly take the golden lotus of merit?
And why did the other seven saints support this newcomer emperor so much?
Venerable Guanyin guessed something, but felt that something was missing.
At this time, I only heard Lu Fengqiu say loudly to Haotian: "Haotian, what is in the emperor's hand, you must know it." ”
"Since you're so powerful, what's the matter?"
"The three of us enter the game together, and each evolve a world."
"For a period of 10,000 years, if the two of you have a world that is more mature than me, it will be regarded as a loss for the emperor."
"If this emperor loses, this Pure World White Lotus and the Extinction Black Lotus will be in your hands from now on."
"However, if this emperor wins, this emperor will not only get the merit golden lotus, but also the triple holy fire of heaven, earth and man."
"How? Haotian? Duobao? Do you dare to bet this game with the emperor? ”
Lu Fengqiu's voice was firm and powerful.
Haotian looked at Lu Fengqiu, laughed loudly, and said, "Okay, Qingyun Tianzun is worthy of being the emperor of people, and he has courage. ”
Saying that, Haotian turned his head to look at Duobao Rulai and said, "Buddha Rulai, since the emperor is warmly invited, why should you and I be disappointed." ”
"Two against one, no matter how you look at it, it's our victory."
Haotian's tone sounded relaxed.
He just lost, and he just returned the merit treasure that was the Sui Emperor.
If he wins, then he will be able to get at least one Innate Spirit Treasure.
No matter how you look at this gamble, he is invincible.
Haotian naturally wants to bet on this game, but Duobao Rulai may not want to bet.
Although he has been sanctified and is immortal, the Golden Lotus of Merit is of great symbolic significance to Buddhism.
It can be called the treasure of Buddhism, if he loses, it is not just as simple as losing an innate spirit treasure.
If he loses, he loses the face of Buddhism.
The face of this thing, although you can't see it or touch it, it's real.
Since the end of the Third Immeasurable Tribulation, the power of Buddhism has spread across the nine inner universes, and it can be said to be the number one sect in the multiverse today.
In this game, he can't afford to lose, and Buddhism can't afford to lose.
However, he couldn't help but gamble.
Right now, the eight great saints led by Lu Fengqiu are clearly here for the meritorious golden lotus.
Although I don't know what they want this meritorious golden lotus for, it can be imagined that since they appeared in Lingshan together, they have reached some kind of tacit understanding.
Although he invited Haotian to help in time, Haotian did not relieve him of any pressure at all.
Originally, he didn't have much hope for Haotian, but Haotian acted like this, which still made Duobao Rulai a little angry.
In the third immeasurable tribulation, he joined forces with Haotian to have a great revival of Buddhism.
It is precisely because of the great prosperity of Buddhism that Haotian's control of the Kyushu boundary in the world is more handy.
Now, Haotian and his alliance are cracked.
Haotian didn't fall to his side today, but roasted him on the fire, and it seemed that it was time for him to make a choice.
Duobao Rulai knew very well that if the fourth immeasurable tribulation broke out, Haotian would probably target Buddhism.
Because since the end of the Third Immeasurable Eon, the power of Buddhism has really developed too fast.
How could Haotian sit back and watch Buddhism continue to grow, thus threatening the heavenly court.
Duobao Rulai originally thought that Haotian would help him a little no matter what happened today, but now it seems that his hope has been completely disappointed.
Hao Tianming wanted to see him Buddhism jokes.
Since Haotian is unjust, then he can only be unkind.
"Okay, this game, I bet."
Duobao Rulai said this sentence with a calm face, and there was no wave in his heart from his face.
For Duobao Rulai, there is never an eternal enemy or an eternal friend in this world.
As soon as Duobao Rulai's words came out, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the main hall, and the bhikshus and arhats, all felt a trace of solemnity.
For many years, Lingshan has never encountered such a big crisis as it does today.
They can all see that the Buddha agreed to this gamble in desperation.
The guide sighed slightly, and he couldn't prevent such an ending.
When he and his junior brother Zhun Ti recruited talents in the Eastern Territory in the Great Tribulation of the Gods, they expanded the Western world.
Now that Buddhism has become the largest sect in the world, there is certainly a sense of pride.
However, the truth of prosperity and decline is also understood, and now that the crisis has come, there is only one way to face it.
The guide looked at Duobao Rulai, bowed slightly, and gave him a positive look.
Duobao also gestured towards the lead with a slight chin head.
At this time, the guide stepped forward and said to Taishang and Yuan Shi: "A few Taoist friends, then let's be a witness from the side." ”
The attitude of receiving leads makes Taishang and Yuan Shi not say much.
After all, it was also a trench back then, and the face that should be given still has to be given.
……
Rumble!
First, in the endless galaxy of the inner universe.
Haotian, Duobao Rulai, and Lu Fengqiu are in a three-legged position, each occupying a direction.
Behind them was one man each.
They are all people who want to enter the game and become innate gods.
Behind Haotian stood Tai Bai Xing, this is Hao Tian's iron, the last time Hao Tian and Sui Huang bet, it was Tai Bai Xing who entered the game, contributed to Hao Tian, and helped Hao Tian evolve the world.
This time, Haotian still chose Tai Bai Xing.
Behind Duobao Nyorai stands Venerable Guanyin, who has always been a staunch supporter of Duobao Nyorai.
The Buddhist forces can have today's grand occasion, and it is inseparable from the support of Guanyin.
This time, Guanyin is the person chosen by Duobao to enter the game.
Standing behind Lu Fengqiu was naturally the god of willows.
This was prepared by Lu Fengqiu early in the morning.
In the chaotic galaxy in the distance, Taishang, Yuanshi, Tongtian, Fuxi, Nuwa, the two emperors of Yan and Huang, plus the two brothers of Jieyin and Zhun Ti, a total of nine sages, they witnessed this shocking gamble together.
Fu Xi looked at Lu Fengqiu in the distance and said quietly: "I can vaguely see the scene of the year. ”
Nuwa also sighed slightly, she understood that Fu Xi was talking about Emperor Sui.
In the bet between Suihuang and Haotian back then, their brothers and sisters were also witnesses.
At this moment, I saw that in the chaos of the endless galaxy, suddenly Jinhua was full of gold, and from the Jinhua, slowly walked out of a woman dressed in colorful Xia clothes, with graceful curves, noble temperament, and no flaws on her body.
I saw her eyes flashing, and a golden hairpin was inserted in her bun.
Lotus blossomed under her feet, and in a moment, she came to the front of the nine saints.
"Queen Mother of the West!"
Taishang saw the graceful figure, a smile appeared on his face, and he said hello to the woman.
The woman also returned the salute to the Taishang.
It turned out that this woman was the Queen Mother of the West who used the golden hairpin to determine the direction of the heavenly court.
In the light of chaos, she looked very noble.
I saw her green silk coiled up, her eyes flashing with divine light, and her skin was like mutton fat jade, snow-white and delicate. It's flowing with a little bit of shine.
The Queen Mother of the West greeted the nine saints one by one.
Then he looked at the three people who were standing in a three-legged position in the starry sky.
The Queen Mother of the West said in a holy and dignified voice: "The same is true of the rivalry between Emperor Sui and Emperor Haotian back then. ”
"I didn't expect that after countless years, this scene would be played out again."
Fu Xi said: "Who does the Queen Mother of the West think will win?" ”
Fuxi has a good relationship with the Queen Mother of the West.
Therefore, this sentence is not abrupt.
The Queen Mother of the West shook her head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter who wins, it won't be a draw after all." ”
"Everything in the universe is impossible to be ordinary."
Fu Xi only felt that the Queen Mother of the West was referring to this, but Fu Xi didn't ask much.
Because at this time, in the chaos of the void over there, Lu Fengqiu's voice came.
Lu Fengqiu pointed to a planet in the galaxy and said loudly: "Ten thousand years of competition, two, you can start." ”
A faint smile appeared on Haotian's face, he was calm, and it seemed that everything was under his control.
He spat out only one word.
"Yes."
Duobao Rulai is extremely indifferent, and at this time, he can only do his best.
Since the opening of the pluralistic universe, he no longer knows how many worlds have evolved.
From the birth of a world to the destruction of a world, he has experienced it I don't know how many times.
He has a lot of experience in shaping a world.
But he still wasn't sure of victory.
Because once the world begins to evolve, the contradiction between the innate gods and the acquired beings will inevitably appear.
It is a law that no life is content to be ordinary.
It's hard to strike a balance.
This is also the reason why Duobao Rulai did not want to agree to this gamble at first.
A small mistake can lead to a complete loss.
Moreover, the period of this evolution of the world is 10,000 years.
10,000 years is not long, but it is not long enough, but it is not long enough for the world of evolution.
It is difficult to find a balance between the innate gods and the acquired beings in 10,000 years.
The shorter the time to evolve the world, the more difficult it becomes.
Because the evolution of life has a progressive level, it cannot be too fast, nor too slow.
Duobao Rulai felt that his head was a little big, but now he could only bite the bullet and go up.
At this time, Lu Fengqiu was the calmest one.
He was high in the chaos, looking at this picturesque endless galaxy, and suddenly felt a feeling that he had never felt before.
This feeling is very complicated, with a sense of being left behind and independent, a little bit of loneliness in the world, and a sense of respect for life.
Every life deserves to be respected, and from now on, he will create a great world, a great world with all living beings.
Lu Fengqiu took a deep breath, looked at Liu Shen, and then raised his hand and pointed to a planet in the galaxy.
It was originally just a broken planet, and the sudden brilliance of the masterpiece, under Lu Fengqiu's fingers, was full of Hongmeng purple qi.
The next moment, Lu Fengqiu said softly: "Let's start." ”
As Lu Fengqiu's voice fell, his voice spread throughout the Chaos Galaxy.
The willow god had already turned into a divine light and escaped into the planet.
At the same time, Haotian also raised his finger to a planet in the galaxy, and that planet also fell into the Hongmeng purple qi, followed by the Tai Bai Star.
Similarly, at that end of the galaxy, Duobao Rulai sat on the golden lotus of merit, and with a wave of his fingers, a planet slowly floated in front of him.
Subsequently, Venerable Guanyin escaped into the planet.
A creation war began.
Lu Fengqiu sat on top of the Pure World White Lotus, and waved his hand towards the planet he wanted to shape, the light of rules and order shrouded it.
"Chaos, open the sky."
As Lu Fengqiu's voice fell, the planet began to evolve.
The birth of a planet is the same as the law of material growth in nature.
The planets chosen by Lu Fengqiu, Haotian, and Duobao Rulai are all decaying planets, and there are no signs of life on them.
They are all using their supreme mana to reshape and change the planet of their choice, and bring their chosen planet back to life.
The way they chose to open the heavens was much the same, but what was crucial was how they chose to shape life at the beginning of the evolution of the world.
How to spread civilization after shaping life.
There is a question of degree involved.
If civilization is spread excessively, it will lead to the overproduction of acquired life, which is likely to lead to an excessively rapid increase in entropy.
If the speed of spreading civilization is slow, it will lead to the growth rate of acquired life being too slow, resulting in the gap between the acquired beings and the innate gods in the end.
After the willow god entered the chaos of this planet, he incarnated as the god of the opening of the universe of this planet.
And Lu Fengqiu is the will of heaven.
The role of the willow god is to help Lu Fengqiu evolve various lifeforms.
Haotian and Tai Bai Xing, as well as Duobao Rulai and Venerable Guanyin, also assigned tasks in this way.
The game is over a period of 10,000 years.
Compared with the last gamble between Haotian and Suihuang, the time has been shortened by ten times.
This time span is actually more difficult than the time span of 100,000 years.
Lu Fengqiu, as the will of the Heavenly Dao, is to balance all the lives under the Heavenly Dao.
After the chaos opened the sky, Lu Fengqiu used his great mana to create the first batch of acquired gods in the world.
Many of these acquired deities are wise.
As the god of the opening of the heavens, after the first batch of gods appeared, most of these gods were successfully gathered together.
Then, Lu Fengqiu began to create the first batch of acquired souls, the sun, moon and stars, birds and beasts, all things, which were created by Lu Fengqiu successively.
A thousand years after the birth of the world, Lu Fengqiu began to create the first human beings.
At this time, in the world dominated by Haotian, he didn't seem to plan to create people, but chose birds and beasts as the mainstream of the world and became the pillars of the acquired souls.
Unlike Haotian and Lu Fengqiu, in the world where Duobao Rulai evolved, he created people at the first time when the universe was opened.
Moreover, this person was a Buddha as soon as he was born, and the Buddha meditated and enlightened for a hundred years, becoming the first great Dharma person in that world.
After the Buddha attained enlightenment, Duobao Rulai created a hundred beasts, and then let these beasts quickly comprehend the method of cultivation and become a great demon who cried ghosts and gods in the world.
Soon, the Buddha established the Buddha kingdom and began a non-stop path of preaching and crossing demons.
……
Three thousand years later.
The world that Lu Fengqiu evolved was already thriving, and he had almost re-evolved the world after Pangu opened the sky.
It's just that the time has been shortened by several times.
He just looked like he was copying the evolution of Pangea since the beginning of the world.
At this time, the ten saints who were watching from a distance had different expressions on their faces.
Taishang's face was very calm, and he didn't seem to be worried that Lu Fengqiu would lose at all.
The face of the guide was slightly worried, and he seemed not very satisfied with the world that Duobao had evolved.
At this moment, I only heard Emperor Yan quietly say: "Brother Xuanyuan, do you think Qingyun Daoyou can win?" ”
The Yellow Emperor shook his head slightly and said, "Three thousand years is just a critical node, but it's still too early to see who wins and loses." ”
"Let's see, at least another three thousand years will have to wait to see who is more intelligent."
Emperor Yan said: "I think Qingyun Daoyou's chances of winning are greater. ”
The Yellow Emperor was puzzled: "Oh? What is Brother Shennong's opinion? ”
Emperor Yan smiled mysteriously and said, "Let me sell it, and I'll know if I look at it." ”
At this time, the Queen Mother of the West, who was not far away, suddenly said loudly: "The Human Emperor's move is indeed interesting. ”
