Chapter Twenty-Three: The Void Darkens for a While
After Chongting Zhi sat down, he looked into the long river of phosgene, this time Zhu Tingzhi really did not arrive, but there were two more people in the court.
One is the eldest grandson Daoren, and the other is Lin Tingzhi. The latter and Wu Tianxu are generally people who stand on the side of the first leader, but they rarely show up in the past, so there are thirteen court leaders in the court at this moment.
He thought in his heart, it was their previous series of actions, including the activation of the "Ming and Tianyi", that attracted the attention and doubts of the chief executive, so it was this time that this Lin Tingzhi was summoned to facilitate the stabilization of the situation in the court.
At this time, he felt that Zhong Daoren was looking at him, so he nodded to him.
The first Taoist waited for everyone to sit down, and said according to the usual words: "Do you have a proposal?"
Zhong Daoren no longer hesitated at this time, picked up the jade mallet, knocked on the jade chime, and when the first Taoist looked at it, he stood up, hit a head at the top of the long river, and said: "The first deacon, all the court deacons, this time Zhong has a proposal here!"
The court officials on the seats all sat silently, and their expressions did not change much, but everyone knew in their hearts what Zhong Daoren wanted to do this time.
The first Taoist said: "Zhong Ting, please speak." ”
Zhong Dao said: "The Great Xuanli has been three hundred and eighty-one years, when I entered the WTO in Tianxia, in order to deal with the enemies inside and outside, and to protect the people of Tianxia, it was to support the Xuanfa, and then retreat from foreign enemies, open up the territory, and now become the pattern of 13 continents in the inner world and 28 stars in the outer world.
Now more than 300 years have passed, and time has changed, and Zhong thinks that the past policy should also be changed. ”
The first Daoist glanced at him, his gaze swept from the seat again, and he paused for a moment on the body of the eldest grandson Daoist and Chong Tingzhi before he said slowly: "Zhong Tingzhi, you have done a lot of things in the past, but you don't know where you want to change?"
Zhong Daoren raised his head and raised his voice: "First Executive, in the past hundred years, there have been creations that have flourished, and this method has infinite potential, especially in the past few decades, my Tianxia regardless of military strength and people's livelihood, has relied on this to get great benefits, flying boats and cars, armor and soldiers, and so on, so that my ordinary people of Tianxia can also use this to face the enemy without years of hard work."
My summer is even more prosperous than before!
In comparison, for example, there are many mystical cultivators in various prefectures today, and they occupy famous positions, but they are bloated and clumsy, and their strength is difficult to reach the top, and the benefits are not beneficial to the bottom!
And this creation has all kinds of benefits, and it should have taken advantage of the wind to help me become more important in Tianxia! However, now it is suppressed and restrained by Xuanfu Xuanxiu in various places, and it is difficult to let go, and it is difficult to continue to strive upward.
If it is said that in the past three hundred years, the mystical law can be called a good law, showing the virtue of my Tianxia and the power of my Tianxia, but now the mystical law is an evil law, especially in the past few decades, it has become a vine attached to the Tianxia, just like the burden on the back and the shackles under the feet, and it should be cut off and removed. ”
When the Yusu Dao people heard this, they sneered.
Feng and Gao were silent.
Zhu Tingzhi seemed to be thinking about something.
Since Tianxia entered the WTO, it has flourished for more than 300 years, and the mystical method that has made great achievements has been spurned at this moment, but no one in the court has spoken out for it.
Chong Tingzhi also stood up at this time and said: "First Deacon, everyone, in the past ten years, we have also received submissions from the master craftsmen of Yujing and several Yujing masters, which are also petitions for support for creation, but they are also hindered by the restrictions of the Xuanfu in various places, and it is difficult to stretch their strengths.
Just a few months ago, Shangchentian and Youcheng joined forces with several rebels in a vain attempt to open the turbidity tide, which was not accidental, but knowing that the trend of Tianxia was flourishing day by day, so I had to look for all the opportunities that could be found.
The enemy understands the truth here, how can I not know it? Therefore, I should not bind myself at this time, but let go of the restraint and let it spread its wings. ”
Zhong Daoren even said again: "First Executive, all court executives, Zhong thinks that the time is ripe now, and the strategy of supporting the Xuanfa in the past should be changed here!"
In fact, now that the creation has occupied an extremely important position in the Heavenly Summer, they are not unfounded to put forward this proposal.
Because the situation in the inner layer is complicated, and there are still true cultivation forces such as the Spiritual Mystery Realm everywhere, it is left aside for the time being, but in the Twenty-Eight Residences of the outer layer, the creation undoubtedly has a certain foundation, and is gradually replacing the role of the original Xuan Xiu.
If they could, they would have liked to have waited a little longer, because creation is developing rapidly, and in another twenty or thirty years, the time should be even more ripe. It would have been easier to pass the proposal if it was introduced at that time.
But now it's different, because of the existence of a person like Zhang Yu who opened up the path, Xuanfa is no longer allowed to delay it slowly.
Once one or two more Xuanzun appeared in the Xuan Cultivation, it would be difficult to contain it.
The difference between creation and occult law is that whether it is the outer armor, the flying boat, or even the Xuan soldier, it is an external force.
The people who control these creations themselves do not possess any supernatural powers, nor do they have any voice in the upper echelons to compete with them for power.
And creation is based on a huge system to exist, which requires the coordination of all aspects, and it seems to be powerful but also fragile.
If something is wrong, it is easy for them to suppress it, and in their opinion, it is the perfect tool.
From now on, the mundane world can be completely separated from the upper class, and it is no longer like Xuan Xiu who can enter the world and be born, and can implicate the upper and lower levels, they only need to select and take the elite disciples who are suitable for cultivation every year to be included in the door.
This kind of pattern is exactly what many true cultivators want to see.
The first Daoist pondered for a moment, looked at the Dao Masters present, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any suggestions for this?"
Chen Tingzhi sat still, in his opinion, this was a contradiction between true cultivation and Xuan cultivation, what did it have to do with their cultivation? Those Hun Zhang monks below had always been guarded against and excluded from both sides.
Besides, he was transferred from true cultivation to Hun Zhang, and it was not all the way to those Xuanfa monks who practiced Hun Zhang at the beginning, so naturally there was no need to stand up for the Xuanfa.
Chao Daoren knocked on the jade chime in front of him, and said from the seat: "I thought this was inappropriate. ”
It is not surprising that the court officials are not surprised to see this, Chao Huan is a person who has to fight for everything, even if the proposal has nothing to do with him, he has to pick a reason to oppose it.
The first Taoist said: "What is the opinion of Chao Daoyou?"
Chao Daoren stood up, made a joke, and said in a loud voice: "First, everyone, Zhong Tingzhi and Chongtingzhi said that they would change the old policy and support the creation to replace the Xuanfa, in a hurry, I can't tell whether this matter is good or bad, so I won't say it for the time being, just say that if the Xuanfu is today, almost all of them are under the care of Xuanxiu, and there are countless Xuanxiu in the outer twenty-eight nights.
Especially the inner layer of the thirteen upper continents, which is the foundation of my Tianxia, if there is chaos due to sudden changes, wouldn't the two of you be sinners?"
Zhong Daoren said with a smile: "It turns out that Chao Tingzhi is worried about it, Chao Tingzhi, and now the head of the thirteen continents is not a Xuanxiu."
And the inner state government and the military government now have to borrow a lot of the power of creation, there are tens of thousands of armored people in each continent, thousands of fighting flying boats, and they are not weak compared to many Xuan Xiu, so the joint force of the upper and lower levels is enough to deter all parties and stabilize the situation, as for the chaos below, ......"
He glanced at Feng and Gao, "It seems that he has justified the name of the Xuanfa before, and he has never seen any turmoil, so Chao Tingzhi doesn't have to worry about this." ”
Chao Dao said: "Oh, so it seems that Xuan Xiu is not the only one who suffers?"
Chong Tingzhi said expressionlessly: "Chao Tingzhi, the Xuanfa has enjoyed the benefits of three hundred years, and now it has become an obstacle to my Tianxia's progress, for my overall consideration, it is time to give up my position." ”
Chao Daoren showed a hint of ridicule and said, "First take his name, and then take his position, you are calculating." He looked at the wind and the high, "Are you two willing?"
Feng and Gao continued to remain silent.
They are also helpless, even if they don't want to? After seizing the fame, they are not orthodox cultivators, and their status is embarrassing, even if they fight, they will not get any benefits, but they are easy to offend people, and they may not even be able to keep their position in the court after that, so why bother?
However, after Chao Daoren said these few words, he sat down and didn't say anything more, and he couldn't see what he meant.
Zhong Daoren stroked his beard and smiled silently, in fact, he met with him as early as after Chao Daoren went to the Feng and Gao Ermen Humane Palace, promised to give Hun Xiu some benefits, and appeased him.
As for this person's current words, it seems that he has a different opinion, but in fact it does not hinder anything, on the contrary, if no one comes forward to oppose his proposal, the first person will be more suspicious, but now it is just right.
Seeing that the Daoists in the court were no longer silent, the first Daoist couldn't help but think, in fact, he still had a lot of concerns about this matter.
The reason why the Xuanfa justification did not cause any turmoil before was because there was still a road ahead of the Xuanfa, and Zhang Yu, the Xuanfa Xuanzun, was sitting upright.
And now, if we support the creation again, it will inevitably suppress the mystic law in a substantial sense, which will make the world's mystical cultivators have an illusion, that is, the above is really going to abandon the mystical law, and if it is instigated by someone with a heart, it will really make a mess.
And even if it was just one or two monks who made a rebellion, it could cause great damage to the world, which was not what he wanted to see.
So even if you do have to do it, you don't have to be in such a hurry.
He couldn't help but turn his eyes to Lin Tingzhi on the seat, who was about to get up and speak at his signal, but at this time, the eldest grandson Daoren said loudly: "Shouzhi, I have something here, which is contained in it, but I want to ask Shouzhi to take a look." As he spoke, he took out a jade disc from his sleeve.
The first Taoist glanced at him, groaned slightly, and then signaled, and a beautiful Taoist boy walked out behind him, stepped on a lotus flower, came down along the long river of phosgene, came to the eldest grandson Taoist, took a snort, took the jade plate, and then sent it to the top of the long river under the attention of the court.
The first Taoist took it, glanced at it, and did not see any change in expression on his face, but there was a trace of imperceptible surprise in his eyes, and after a little contemplation, he raised his head and said slowly: "Since you court officials have nothing to say, then the court will decide." ”
Zhong Daoren and Chongting Zhi glanced at each other, immediately reached out and took the jade mallet, knocked the handle, and played the jade chime in front of him.
