Chapter Ninety-Two: Talking about the Ancients
In the palace, Bonu was helped out. Only Xiao Yu and Qiu Si were left in the hall.
The ebony staff in Xiao Yu's hand paused on the ground under his feet, and smiled lightly, "The worldly affairs have almost been settled, and the next thing is the matter of the cultivator." Now that the Molun Temple is extinguished, the Wangting Witch Cult has overturned, and there is still a Witch Cult Ancestral Court left on the grassland, but this time there is still a frost peak hidden in the royal court It is a wake-up call for me, the Witch Sect Ancestral Court still looks closer, if it jumps out of a frost peak at a critical moment to disrupt the situation, it is also a variable. Qiusi, you can work harder. ”
Qiu Si nodded and said: "After all, it is the ancestral court of the Witch Sect, and it used to be the existence of dominating the cultivation world when the Dao Sect was not flourishing, and it may not be that there are no masters of heaven and man who do not ask about the world." I think it should be based on surveillance. ”
Xiao Yu heard this statement for the first time, and asked, "According to you, the witch cult was also very prosperous back then?"
Qiu Si paused slightly, recalled for a while, and said, "According to the records in the Molun Temple, this is indeed the case. The change of dynasties in the secular world, and the same is true of the sects in the cultivation world, which is nothing more than the trend of prosperity and decline, division and merger. The Taoist sect, which was flourishing thousands of years ago, was divided into two because of infighting, and lost the hegemony of the cultivation world, so that the Western Buddhism came to dominate the cultivation world, and then the Buddhism was divided into three points, and the Later Demon Sect rose into the Central Plains at this time. Before the Taoist Sect, it was the Witch Sect that mastered the cultivation world. ”
"But after all, the history is too long, and there are many ambiguities in the records, but it is just that the Witch Sect at that time had twelve elders who were jointly in charge of the Witch Sect, and they were called the Twelve Ancestral Witches. ”
Xiao Yu clenched the ebony staff in his hand and asked in surprise, "What kind of cultivation realm is the ancestral witch?"
Qiu Si explained: "Ancestral witch is just an honorific title, it can also be said to be the meaning of the ancestor of the witch sect, if it is replaced by the cultivation realm, it is almost the peak realm of the saint's cultivation that has not been proven. Moreover, it is said that these twelve ancestral witches can form a magnificent formation, shaking the heavens and the earth. At that time, although the Taoist ancestor had been sanctified, he had not yet established a religion, and the only person who could compete with the witch cult was the secular emperor Donghuang. ”
Xiao Yu touched his chin and played with the taste: "No wonder Da Zheng Taizu calls himself the proprietor, it turns out that there was an Eastern Emperor more than a thousand years ago." Speaking of which, the Eastern Emperor can compete with the Twelve Ancestral Witches, is it the achievement of the Saints? But why have I never heard anyone talk about it? If the achievements of the Saints have not been proven, how can they compete with the Twelve Ancestral Witches, after all, the Twelve Ancestral Witches have already cultivated as saints, but they have not yet proven the achievements of the Saints. ”
Qiu Si shook his head and said: "The Eastern Emperor has indeed not achieved the achievement of a saint, but he has a special magic weapon in his hand, which can protect him from destruction, and there are many capable people in the empire at that time, it is said that the Eastern Emperor of that year gathered three hundred and sixty-five cultivators with the power of the whole country to form a large array to fight against the twelve ancestral witches, and the lowest cultivation among the cultivators in the array is also the realm of heaven and man like Heishui Wan." ”
Xiao Yu frowned and pondered, "What would happen if Heishui Wan was put in that era?"
Qiu Si smiled: "That's not the number one wizard of the witch sect, I'm afraid it's not even a big witch." ”
Xiao Yu continued to ask, "What is the Great Witch?"
Talking about what there is and what is not, nostalgic for the past and the present, has created a large number of Qing Tan celebrities, which naturally has its fascinating points, at this moment Xiao Yu was aroused, and Qiu Si continued to explain: "The status of the Great Witch and the Taoist Sect is the same, and they generally have their own tribal forces, and they can only be called Great Witches in order to reach the realm of freedom, and their status in the Witch Sect is second only to the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and the number is only a dozen people. When the Twelve Ancestral Witches fell, the principals of the Witch Cult were several great witches. ”
Xiao Yu sighed, "It's as strong as the Twelve Ancestral Witches will also fall, if I'm not mistaken, they will die with the Eastern Emperor?" ”
Qiu Si nodded and said: "That's true, in the records, it is said that the great witch has a strong physique, has the power to pull out the mountain, and has a large witchcraft weapon as a bow, and an arrow can shoot thousands of miles away." At that time, the son of the Eastern Emperor was traveling, and he had an entanglement with this great witch, and was shot by this great witch with an arrow thousands of miles away. The Eastern Emperor was furious and personally killed the great witch, which then triggered a full-scale war between the Witch Cult and the Eastern Emperor's Imperial Court, and the specific situation at that time was no longer clear, but it was known that the final result was that the Eastern Emperor and the Twelve Ancestral Witches were all killed, and the Eastern Emperor's Imperial Court collapsed and analyzed, and the Witch Cult has been in a slump since then. ”
Xiao Yu suddenly remembered something, and interjected: "You said that the great witches of the witch sect have a strong physique, but now the wizards in the witch sect are all not physical, that is to say, the witch sect's method of forging the body has been lost?"
Qiu Si's face was slightly surprised, she was a talented woman, as a disciple of the Molun Temple, she had read the classics of the Molun Temple, and it was not strange to know these secrets, but Xiao Yu had only heard of it for the first time, but her guess was already very close.
The surprise on Qiu Si's face flashed for a moment, and he coughed lightly and said, "Actually, many seniors in the cultivation world think that it is the Demon Sect that has obtained the Witch Sect's physique inheritance. There is a joke that says that the Demon Sect is the practice of Buddhism, the supernatural power of Taoism, and the physique of the Witch Sect, which can really be called the integration of the three religions. It's just that the Demon Cult has always denied it. ”
Xiao Yu shook his head and smiled, "No wonder the Taoist Sect worships the Dao Ancestor, the Buddha worships the Buddha, and the Sword Sect worships the founding patriarch of the twenty-four great truths of the Taoist Sect with one sword, and the Confucian sect worships the Master, but the Demon Sect, which is now among the three sects, wants to worship some illusory heavenly demons, and it turns out that the ancestor cannot be found." ”
Qiu Si smiled faintly: "After the fall of the Twelve Ancestors and the Eastern Emperor, the cultivation world and the secular world were in turmoil, and the heroes rose together, and the Taoist Ancestor and the Buddha felt the situation at that time, and established their own religions in the East and the West, which was later the Taoist Sect and Buddhism. Later, the Taoist ancestor passed down twelve disciples, all of whom were the ultimate in the realm of leisure, and were called the twelve golden immortals of Taoism at that time, and the twelve golden immortals were each passed down to carry forward the Taoist system, which gave rise to the atmosphere that the vast middle earth was a cultivator, so the Taoist sect at that time could be described as a monopoly, and because of this, the Taoist sect could be in charge of the cultivation world. Later, Daozu still had a disciple, but he was not in the genus of the Twelve Golden Immortals, called Mr. Yun, and this Mr. Yun founded a faction alone, which was later known as Tianji Pavilion. ”
Qiu Si paused for a moment and fiddled with the wheel in his hand, "The three sects, Taoism, Buddhism, and human religion." The first two are constant, the latter is impermanent, when the Confucian master was still there, Confucianism was one of the three religions, and later Jiantie rode into the Central Plains, Confucianism was divided, and the demon religion took the place of Confucianism. Although the witch religion flourished back then, it did not have the three religions, so it was not among the three religions. ”
Xiao Yu was silent for a while, Qiu Si said very succinctly, and there were still many places that he had not said, such as the later dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, Confucius Master, who founded the Demon Sect? What happened to Confucianism when it was later established in the Central Plains? Why did Buddhism divide into three parts? How did Dao Buddha join forces to fight against Demon Sect? Where did Dao Ancestor, Buddha, and Master go? In the era of the Eastern Emperor's Imperial Court, there was no division between the cultivation world and the world, so who divided the cultivation world from the world? Where did the freedom from the worldly world begin?
The more you know, the more you'll find out what you don't know.
Xiao Yu knew that his cultivation realm was not enough, and it would be useless to know too much, so he just pondered for a while before coming back to his senses and said, "In this way, I really have to go to the Witch Sect Ancestral Court for a trip." ”
