Chapter 364: Immortal Tribulation
Yuan sat quietly on the high platform, and I don't know how long it took for the sound of the stone statue guarding the door to come.
"Master, it's time to Jiagan Tianzhi again."
Jiagan Tianzhi is a time, an important time for the ancient city of Lechuan to open the gate and release water. It is the Nai He Bridge that opens the gates, and the ruthless water is released.
The three souls and six souls of the deceased enter the Lethe River, which must be mixed with various thoughts. And the function of the bridge is to wear it out, so that the complex thoughts do not converge and give rise to some kind of evil that is difficult to kill.
This is an extremely important part and power in the ancient city of Lethe, and its status is equivalent to that of the Sanshengjing when reincarnation still existed. It can be said that without this part, the entire dojo will be irreparably damaged.
Yuan waved his hand and put the two jade slips into his sleeve, stepped out, and came to the southeast side of the ancient city of Lechuan in an instant.
There is an ancient bridge across Lethe River here, more than ten miles long, ninety-nine zhang wide, not a few feet wide, and the flow is southwest.
The bronze ghost lion stands on the bridge, surrounded by clouds and mist.
In the past, there were day wandering gods and night wandering gods, leading 8,000 yin soldiers to guard day and night. There are six divine beasts that go up to nine heavens, and go down to the nine shadows to prevent the living from crossing over.
Now only the Lord of the Shadows remains.
Yuan raised his hand to gently support the bronze ghost lion, and the thin layer of clouds and mist on the bridge suddenly thickened, and then fell into the Lechuan River like flowing water.
The ruthless water has lovers, and the obsession in the river that transforms into all kinds of weird and twisted figures melts when it meets the water, like the foam produced by the tea pouring down, which is fleeting.
The last time he adjusted the yin and yang for Lechuan to eliminate distracting thoughts was at the beginning of the establishment of the ancient city of Lechuan. As it first opens today, many things need to be done by him.
"You have to recruit some Yin Gods, Shi'er finds time for you to go to the mundane and pick some heroes to become Yin Gods."
Those who are evil can become evil ghosts, and those who are virtuous can become gods.
I don't know if it's some kind of coincidence, or if it follows the rules of heaven and earth that are unknown. Whether it is in the cultivation world or in modern times, there are almost no villains who have been canonized as gods throughout the ages, and most of them are virtuous people.
This is especially true in the cultivation world, where those who can become Yin Gods must be virtuous.
The reason is very simple, only virtuous people can be worshiped after death, incense worship is a vital part of the Yin God, and people without virtue can have a whole corpse is smoking.
"Master, I'm afraid we won't be able to recruit the mortal yin god." Gatekeeper Stone Statue Road.
"Why?"
Yuan asked, and the next answer of the Gatekeeper Stone Statue became a little hesitant, and he replied, "You mentioned this matter to me before, and the next day I came to the mortal world with my mind divided, and then I was intercepted by the Yin Division. β
"Yinji? If you don't just look for them directly, the mortal yin should be the ancient city dogtooth. β
Yuan's eyes were lowered, and there was a hint of wonder in his eyes, and Huangquan Lechuan felt that the person named the Lord of the Secret was flat in all directions.
Three thousand miles away, I don't know how many demons are bowing their heads.
"I don't care about the living, all the dead belong to me, how can there be non-subjects in the world?"
"This ...... They don't listen to proclamation, they listen to one man. β
"Who?"
Yuan turned his head slightly, and the stone statue guarding the door suddenly felt a lot of pressure. He was just about to answer, but Yuan already knew about it by some means.
The mortal underworld was canonized by others, and this person's strength was not bad, and he couldn't even find out the identity of the other party.
The stone statue guarding the door cautiously replied: "They say that they only respect the immortal law, and listen to the immortals who are in the world." β
ββ¦β¦β
Yuan Wangtian was speechless, silently restraining his breath and personality
I can't beat it.
The stone statue guarding the door said: "The Yin Si personality has been taken away, I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to maintain this place, and I think that man's words are not unreasonable. Although the small ones can't spy on the heavens, they have some talent for driving away evil spirits and avoiding evil. β
Yuan shook his head and said: "I have no grievances with him, he is the living and reasonable, I must not harm and disturb yin and yang." β
The stone statue guarding the door said: "Blocking the road is a great enemy of life and death." β
The real body of the stone statue guarding the gate is the spirit of the ancient city of Lethe, and it is both glorious and lossy with Yuan. In his opinion, the method provided by the Ancient Dao Sect was worth trying, even if it was at the risk of becoming an enemy of Li Changsheng.
In the face of the foundation of enlightenment, all risks are acceptable.
In the final analysis, fate has hit their sore spot, and adjusting yin and yang step by step can only be in harmony, and enlightenment is impossible.
Enlightenment is an act against the heavens, and it is a struggle with the heavens, so how can we rely on merit to achieve enlightenment?
The stone statue guarding the door understands this, and it is impossible for the master not to understand.
"You said that the Heavenly Dao has dissipated, and now is the most likely time to become enlightened. Before he recovers his peak, the Tribulation of the Convergence Dao is enough to kill! β
Yuan looked at the stone statue guarding the door, although the other party had no eyes, he could feel a trace of stubbornness emanating from the divine soul.
When the benefits are great enough, all the dangers can be turned into risks that can be taken.
Because Li Changsheng is a human being, Yuan has paid a lot of attention to the human race since he was reincarnated, and has seen some memories and obsessions of the three souls and six spirits of human beings.
There is such a trait that a group of people have, and humans call it gambling dogs. When a person wants to make money but is deceived, his parents can't pull it when his brain is hot.
So why can't you put it on yourself?
Gambling, the nature of all beings in heaven and earth.
Try?
Yuan hurriedly suppressed this idea when he was in a hurry, he still felt that this was not the way to go.
is not completely afraid of Li Changsheng's force, as well as his Dao.
Yin and yang are orderly, how can he, as the master of the darkness, kill the living? Wouldn't this violate the way of the cycle of life and death?
Yuan shook his head and walked towards the Hall of Reincarnation, saying, "I have been in retreat for 10 years, and if I still have a chance to talk about it after ten years." β
Don't miss the opportunity, and never miss it.
At present, the only way is to let the opportunity slip away, otherwise he is afraid that he will fall to the ancient way gate in the entanglement and hesitation again and again.
Although the stone statue guarding the gate was unwilling to see this, it didn't dare to say more.
Enlightenment is very important, and he can give his opinion, but he must not influence or even force the will of his master.
Yuan returned to the Hall of Reincarnation, the heavy door slowly closed, and just as the last gap was about to close, there was a sudden vibration from the outside world.
Thundered!
In the ancient city of Lechuan, thousands of spiritual temples, one by one the god tablets suddenly appeared on the altar.
The gods of Lethe have come back to life.
Yuan suddenly looked back, as if a pair of hands in the darkness had pushed him out of the Hall of Reincarnation again. Looking at the Thousands of Spirit Temples, countless god tablets lit up, and the twelve main halls headed by them were communicating with the mortal world.
He could feel the familiar aura coming from the divine seat, following the breath back to the mortal world, one god after another like newborn babies.
One reason after another for having to go to the mortal world popped up one after another, as if the claws of the devil stretched out from the calamity, trying to pull him into a place where there was no more tribulation.
That's how the calamity is, knowing that it's a calamity, but having to jump into it.
Some people know themselves, some people are ignorant, and in the end, no one can escape.
The light in the deep eyes was deep, and he didn't find any problems when he looked at himself, and then he looked at the world as calm as ever.
Isn't too calm a kind of wave?
"Master! It's back, they're all back! β
The stone statue guarding the gate looked at the lit up spiritual temples one by one with ecstaty, as if it could see the glory of the past.
At that time, they controlled reincarnation, and the heavens, earth, spirits, and yang longevity were all in their strokes.
"Master, we must take them back, so that they will not be arrested." The stone statue guarding the door can't wait to fly out.
Reincarnation is the weakest time, and those who are advanced in the path may be able to keep it secret by some means, but without exception, they all have to pay a huge price.
Seven or eight years ago, many reincarnations of the Yuan Infant Dao Xing died under the gun.
The lives of former colleagues had to be saved.
"I'll be back when I go."
Yuan no longer had any worries, and strode out of the ancient city of Lethe. His gaze looked straight into the distance, as if he could see the back of a person.
In the hall of reincarnation, a little golden light suddenly appeared, and the merits of the Lord of the Darkness regulating yin and yang converged into a figure.
The golden body of merit can survive immeasurable calamitiesββ
Shenzhou, in the middle of a Taoist temple in a mountain village.
A female Taoist priest in her 30s is sweeping the fallen leaves, her movements are not slow or slow, and I am afraid that she will not be able to sweep it in a day.
"Daoist Jiang, how are you thinking about it?"
At this time, a middle-aged man in a formal suit, with a big belly and a little bald, walked in from the outside, sweating profusely.
He is the CEO of a real estate company, and the reason he came to this temple is not to offer incense or seek peace, but to buy the land.
"80 million is not a small amount, and this money is enough for you to go out and build a bigger Taoist temple to recruit protΓ©gΓ©s."
Taoism, as the native religion of China, has always been cared for in various ways. Coupled with the existence of the Shangqing Palace now, the status of Taoism in Zhou has increased several times.
But it does not mean that the local Taoist temples have also soared, on the contrary, the dust of the times has fallen on them, and many Taoist temples have been banned. Some joined a certain sect of cultivation, some were forced to move out because of the location of the spiritual vein, and some were even stiffened by some monks in the early days.
There are very few Taoist temples that still survive today, such as this small Taoist temple here.
First, there is no transcendent inheritance, and second, there are no monks in the door.
In the past, Taoist priests were more of an identity, an identity registered in the manual of the religious administration, and had the "franchise" of rituals. But now it is different, and the appearance of monks has directly squeezed the environment of the originally religious people.
For the sake of social security, the government has become more and more strict in its control of religion, even to the point of being harsh. As if they were afraid that they were secretly engaged in evil spirits, they were eager to handcuff every religious person.
This is quite extreme, but the government has to consider society, and religion is simply the perfect disguise for evil spirits. Basically half of the transcendent events 78 years ago originated from religion, and even two monsters were born because of religion.
One is the Virgin of the White Lotus, and the other is the Father.
The former turned Shenzhou upside down, and it didn't disappear until the appearance of the immortals in the world, because the immortals could really beat her to death. The latter had an even greater impact, almost usurping Rome, a vast and brilliant civilization in the Western Regions.
This small Taoist temple is just a microcosm.
It's just that this trail is more fortunate to look at, although it is not built on the spiritual vein, but it is near the spiritual vein. At the same time, it happens to be a small spiritual vein, which is not listed as a key control area, and the Taoist temple does not need to be forcibly moved out.
The first reaction of the real estate company that got the inside information was naturally to come to the resort, and even a little aura could be sold for a sky-high price. The government also likes to harvest the rich in society in this way, and then distribute the money to ordinary people.
In the past, you could still have a glass of wine for officials and businessmen, but now it is a scholar, an industrial and agricultural businessman, what grade is a businessman and my official family? As for the workers and peasants, who represent the greatest number of people, they have now also turned over, because they are numerous and almost all the monks have come out of them.
Coupled with the national fortune and the country's important weapon, it has invisibly given the government a hard indicator.
"Please go back, I won't sell it for any amount of money."
The female Taoist surnamed Jiang shook her head slightly, and she didn't feel any touch in the face of 80 million.
The more she is like this, the more the real estate boss does not dare to move easily. In the past, the things of ghosts and gods were believed and believed, and if they did not believe, they did not, but now they have them whether they believe it or not.
The real estate boss didn't dare to provoke a Taoist priest, so he could only admonish bitterly: "Dao chief, 80 million is really a lot." Don't look at the valuation of hundreds of millions outside, but it was only after the house and various supporting facilities were built. How much labor and materials will be spent during this period? β
"Layman, please come back."
In the end, the real estate boss had no choice but to go home.
The female Taoist priest looked into the distance, and antique resorts were rising from the ground.
The really powerful people have already taken over the surrounding land, and those who have no way to enter the game can only start from this small Taoist temple.
I heard that the bidding price of the land of these mountain villas is 300,000 yuan per square meter, and any mountain villa needs to cost 100 billion.
Expensive is definitely expensive, completely beyond its due value. But the wealthy family had to buy it, even if the family was bankrupt, they had to obtain spiritual energy resources, and they had to squeeze into the ranks of cultivators.
Jiang Mei glanced at the allowance that had just been transferred from his mobile phone, and the government sent him another thousand more money every month. There are also miscellaneous subsidies, such as oil prices rising to compensate, prices to rise, and even holidays have a minimum wage subsidy.
The subsidy is for all Shenzhou citizens, and although this money is not much, it is enough to offset most of the cost of living.
Thinking of the manor in the distance, the various pills on the market that are comparable to dozens of times gold.
Jiang Mei can probably guess where these subsidy money came from, to put it bluntly, cut the leeks of the rich and use their money to increase the fortunes of the country.
When the heart has a clear price, there is nothing more than this.
Suddenly, a breeze blew, blowing away the fallen leaves that had been swept together, and I don't know when a vague figure stood ten steps away from Jiang Mei.
"May I ask what I should call my seniors? Kim is holy? It's still a much older name. β
"The surname is Jiang Mingmei." Jiang Mei replied without being salty, and then continued to sweep the fallen leaves that were blown away.
Fate said in a respectful tone: "Senior Jiang, I have a hexagram of yours, I wonder if you are interested?" β
Once born and twice ripe, with the previous experience, fate is very low-key and respectful this time.
These powerful beings can't kill themselves, but they definitely can't compete with themselves. In order to achieve the goal as soon as possible, it is not impossible to lower your posture a little.
"Can you give me a trigram?" Jiang Mei's eyebrows raised slightly, and she began to look at her fate with her straight eyes.
There is no root and no cause, and no cause and effect can be detected.
She looked up at the sky again, and then at the ground. Pick up the fallen dead leaves and throw them to the ground, the leaves fall and break, turning into a Zhou Tian star arrangement.
"The fate of the gods and men of the Daomen, fate, and fate all refer to cause and effect."
She could only see a little bit by her way, and then it was obscured by an invisible force. This power is everywhere and immense, as if heaven and earth are covering cause and effect for him.
"What hexagram?"
"Heaven and earth fruit, eternal life, the sun, moon and stars should fall into evil."
