Chapter 233: The Great War

The outbreak of the Great War was well foreshadowed.

Several demon kings joined forces to enter the Nanzhan Continent, and the news had already reached the heavenly court as soon as possible.

The heavenly court is waiting for work, and the large array is displayed outside the South Heavenly Gate, and tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals are densely packed, and the formation is strict.

This is a battle of immortals, and it does not have much impact on the mortal world in the immortal realm. The main battlefield took place in the sky, and countless ordinary people stayed on the ground, but there were dynasty star officials who watched the starry sky and found many fierce situations of the great war, and recorded: "It is the night stars that fall like rain, and the blood of immortals splashes the earth......"

It is said that it has no impact, but it is not right, and it will only be revealed when the victory and defeat are determined in the big war. If Heavenly Court wins a big victory, it will certainly be the best result for the people of Nanzhan Buzhou. That means that everything is as usual, and the order is still the same, but if the demon clan wins, it will be different, the dynasty changes, maybe countless human races will become the rations of the demon clan.

To rule and to be ruled is often determined by the above.

Heavenly Court has ruled Nanzhan Buzhou for a long time, it can be said that it is deep-rooted, and the propaganda is also very good, and it is blindly smeared, saying how the demon clan is extremely vicious and feeds on people.

After all, these things are also often done by the demon clan, and they are not completely discredited.

The public opinion is very loud, and it is not enough to affect the real war, but the Immortal Emperor wants to seek the righteousness of a conquest in order to occupy the hearts of the people, so as to seek merit.

Merit is an important condition for sanctification.

This matter has long become a consensus in the world of immortal cultivation, and thousands of years ago, many cultivators did not realize it, and it was only in the past five hundred years that they realized the importance of merit and began to work in this direction.

What is merit?

When it is divided into two parts, one is "merit" and the other is "virtue". How the two are obtained is very particular, and it is not a pure distinction between good and evil, good and evil, but another general statement. The Western world's erosion of the demon clan is called "education"; the implementation of human civilization within the demon race is also a kind of "education"; as for the creation of the heavenly court by the Immortal Emperor, he wants to command the immortals of the world and formulate rules and order, in a sense, it is also a kind of "education".

What is different is only the perspective and view of "education" that can be achieved.

But there is one thing, different paths, they all feel the same.

The merit is immeasurable, and you can become a saint.

This outbreak of the war between the human race and the demon race is an outlier in the minds of the powers of both sides, and it is also an opportunity.

Either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west overpowers the east wind, when the victory is divided, the victory is the king, and some people will be sanctified.

Of course, this is a speculation, a kind of peeping into the heavens. For the Buddha in the Western world, he believed that he would bind the Buddha's kingdom, stay out of the realm, and not touch cause and effect, so as to gain merit.

In short, each has its own opinions, each has its own calculations, and as for what will happen in the end, we must always know the result before we can know it.

The Great War began.

The war drums shook the sky, and a group of demon clans attacked the South Heavenly Gate like a tide under the leadership of the big demon.

Overall, the number of demon clans has the upper hand, there are too many, it can be called a million, and there are ten thousand demons dancing together.

This battle is a matter of the survival of the race, and the demon kings have mobilized almost all their combat power and poured out, and they must defeat the heavenly court. There is even a demon king who threatened: "The emperor takes turns to sit, and he will come to my house this year!"

But the Heavenly Court side was not to be outdone, and hundreds of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals were trained in an orderly manner, forming an elite formation, stubbornly resisting the attacks of the demon clan.

There is a difference between strong and weak cultivation, when the two sides collide violently, but when they see the magic weapon flying wildly, the sword and gun see the blood, and shout to kill.

Behind, between the clouds and mist, on a Dapeng bird, the demon kings stood there watching the battle.

Zhao Lingtai was among them, and when he saw the tragic battle situation, he couldn't help frowning slightly: In this battle, whether it is the demon clan or the human race, I don't know how many cultivators have fallen.

This is definitely the largest battle in the history of the Immortal Realm.

Several demon kings watched and were eager to try.

Suddenly, bells and drums rang out in unison, drums sounded, and a large group of honor guards appeared at the Nantianmen.

The Bull Demon King opened his eyes and shouted, "Xuanqiong Xiao'er has come out." ”

That guard of honor is the standard for the Immortal Emperor to travel.

The Divine Ape Demon King sneered: "The self-proclaimed Immortal Emperor, but he is like the ordinary emperor, so he doesn't lose the price." ”

"Not really!"

The demon kings echoed and laughed loudly.

Zhao Lingtai listened and couldn't help but wonder: That's true. After thinking about it, I feel that people's hearts are difficult to change, even if they become immortals, they still have seven emotions and six desires, and all kinds of greed. Or, only when you are truly sanctified can you be too forgetful.

It's just that at that point, what kind of existence is a saint?

But seeing the Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor sitting in a chariot, wearing a beaded crown and a dragon robe, he was really dressed like an emperor in the world. It's just that the one pulling the cart is actually two real dragons, which looks extraordinary.

The Dragon King of the South China Sea was killed, and the remaining three Dragon Kings immediately rushed to Heaven to surrender and accept Heavenly Court's recruitment.

Such an act is despicable. The old dragons also let go, they didn't want to be cheeky, and offered the children of the dragon clan, pulled the car for the immortal emperor, and offered flattery to gain favor and stabilize their status.

Around the Immortal Emperor, there are the four heavenly kings, the ten immortal venerables and other most noble powers of the heavenly court, and the lineup is extremely powerful.

The four heavenly kings, but they are all true immortal cultivators, plus more than half of the true immortal-level immortal venerables, the strength on the bright side has already steadily overwhelmed the demon clan. Not to mention the immortal emperor who cultivated as a master and stepped into the saint in half a step.

The biggest variable is probably whether the rumors of the Immortal Emperor's injury are true, or whether there are other variables. Otherwise, you don't have to fight at all, you will know the result.

Originally, too, the demon clan has been pressed to the ground and rubbed for hundreds of years. Today's battle, in the eyes of many people, is nothing more than a battle between the trapped beasts of the demon clan.

If you talk about variables, you will focus on Zhao Lingtai.

But seeing the Immortal Emperor standing on the chariot, he nodded to the Divine Ape Demon King from afar, and then shouted: "Where is Zhao Lingtai?

This attitude immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the demon kings. In terms of status, status and prestige, it is clear that they are the protagonists of this war, and they are the leaders of the demon clan, how can the Immortal Emperor turn a blind eye to it, but instead name Zhao Lingtai, isn't it too much to deceive the demons?

The Divine Ape Demon King sneered: "When the matter comes, this Xuanqiong child is still playing this kind of provocative calculation, not a son of man." ”

Hearing this, the demon king was a little quieter.

Zhao Lingtai stepped forward and raised his eyes to look at the Immortal Emperor.

This was the first time he had seen the Immortal Emperor.

In the past, he was promoted, his nationality was unknown, he was just an immortal servant guarding the peach orchard, and in the heavenly court of the hierarchy, he was only a low-level person, and of course he had no chance to meet the immortal emperor. At that time, he also fantasized about hoping to see the Immortal Emperor and see how majestic he was.

"But ......"

Today, Zhao Lingtai said with a smile.

The Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor also saw Zhao Lingtai for the first time, and when he saw that he was a scholar with a polite and polite appearance, he was a little curious and embarrassed. In the past, he was escaped by a true spirit clone of the Sword Ancestor, and he hid from the world and the sea, and with the help of the degraded Zhao Lingtai, he carried the money of creation and escaped into the world.

And then, there are so many things.

The end is to make people, unpredictable. The Sword Ancestor fell, but at any cost, he passed on the complete Great Dao cultivation to Zhao Lingtai, making him a true immortal. In a sense, it can also be equated with the rebirth of the Sword Ancestor.

This has a lot of significance.

Zhao Lingtai was born from the grassroots, he was originally a low-level cultivator, even if he was talented, if he cultivated step by step, even if he was poor in his life, it would be difficult to reach the road of the Great Dao. But because of the creation, it completely changed its fate.

It affected the whole body, and even affected the situation of the entire Immortal Realm.

This was something that the Immortal Emperor had not expected before.

Perhaps, this is the variable.

As for how the variables will develop, that is a matter for later.

The more variables, the greater the impact and the harder it is to control.

This made the Immortal Emperor very displeased, he would not allow this to happen, and he would not tolerate others challenging his supreme authority. Immortal Emperor Immortal Emperor, Ten Thousand Immortal Emperors, supreme. All immortals are only worthy of being courtiers and slaves. And he himself is sanctified!

So, let's wrap it all up today.

In the past, I had been looking for Zhao Lingtai, but I couldn't find it, but now the other party automatically sent it to the door, and it was just time to solve it.

Thinking of this, the Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor smiled slightly and asked, "Your Excellency is Zhao Lingtai, may I ask if you are a human being, Demon Ye?"

That's a terrible question.

The two clans fought each other, and each seized the merit of righteousness. Zhao Lingtai is a human race, but he stands on the camp of the demon race, and if he publicizes it, it will definitely attract criticism from all living beings. On the other hand, on the side of the demon clan, Zhao Lingtai of the other race will also have a grudge. After all, the current alliance is only forced by the situation, and it has to unite as a last resort to deal with Heavenly Court together, what if it is okay? If it is defeated, then there is nothing to say, but if it is won, after the demon clan occupies Heavenly Court, the attitude towards Zhao Lingtai will naturally change.

Zhao Lingtai's eyes were clear, and he replied indifferently: "There are all living beings under the Heavenly Dao, whether it is a human or a demon, each has its own merits." ”

Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor snorted coldly: "With a clever tongue, you can't tell the name of a traitor." ”

Zhao Lingtai was still calm and light: "In this case, in that court, there are no alien races?"

In fact, there are many demon clans in Heavenly Court, of course, the part that surrenders to Cheng, including the dragon clan.

The Immortal Emperor suddenly caught the handle: "Then what you mean is that you surrendered to the demon clan?"

This is even more aggressive.

Zhao Lingtai was unmoved: "What I mean, under the way of heaven, living beings are treated equally, and there is no need to distinguish between each other, let alone between high and low. ”

There was a boom, and the sky seemed to respond.

The Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor felt a pang in his heart, and he was vaguely uneasy.

The Bull Demon King and the others over there couldn't bear it: "What nonsense are you talking about? ”

Zhao Lingtai ignored it, suddenly raised his hand, and the demon body appeared. It was a puppy appearance, smart and funny, roaring violently into the sky, with a huge body, like a wild beast; suddenly it changed into a human form, and its appearance was seven or eight points similar to Zhao Lingtai, standing there, facing Zhao Lingtai: "I've seen a fellow Daoist!"

Zhao Lingtai smiled, his body flickered, and then he separated into a figure, which was more similar to Zhao Lingtai, as if it was printed from a mold, and he also bowed his hand: "I've seen Taoist friends!"

When these two came out, the heavens and the earth seemed to have senses, and the rumbling sound was endless, and even the people and horses of the two tribes who were fighting fiercely over there stopped one after another, looked up and watched, and saw what was happening.

"What is this?"

Several demon kings noticed the strange aura, and they were shocked, and their first thought was thinking: "This is the "Corpse Cutting Sutra"?"

"The Book of Corpses" is the supreme ceremony of the demon clan, the root of all natural powers. It's just that the origin of this ancient method is mysterious and mysterious, and after the cultivation of the demons of various races, the results of their perception are very different, and even very different, and they are unpredictable. Even these demon kings who have cultivated great magical powers do not dare to claim that they have soaked the "Corpse Cutting Sutra" thoroughly.

At that moment, Zhao Lingtai showed his magical powers, and they immediately smelled the breath of this holy scripture, and there was no doubt about it.

Regarding Zhao Lingtai's true cultivation, in fact, the demon kings don't know, only that it is the true immortal realm, and it is difficult to detect how it is. Strength and combat power have to be seen in hand. If you don't really face each other in the last game, how can you distinguish between the superior and the inferior.

It was during the previous banquet that there was a demon king who tried to see the reality of Zhao Lingtai. After all, it rose too fast, so fast that people were dizzying, and they didn't react at once. Walking the way, the fairy realm is rare, whether the foundation is stable or not, there are two things to say.

It's just that Zhao Lingtai's performance is unfathomable, which dispelled their doubts and confirmed that he is a genuine true immortal.

However, unexpectedly, when the two armies faced each other, Zhao Lingtai suddenly exerted his magical powers, and this state surprised people.

Seeing that the aura of the avenue was flying, it actually attracted the induction of heaven and earth, such as a scene, which was not trivial, and it caught up with the Shushan Sword Ancestor back then.

I heard Zhao Lingtai say loudly: "I have cultivated the "Corpse Cutting Sutra", and I have already cut off the demon body and the human body, and today, I am about to cut myself off and achieve the supreme Dao fruit." ”

Hearing this, even the Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor changed his complexion: behead the three corpses and become a saint, this is the Great Dao.

For thousands of years, there has been no public opinion on what the Great Dao is.

When it comes to cultivation and accumulation, people like Immortal Emperor and Sword Ancestor who have lived for a long time, they should be enough. It's just that I'm stuck in a bottleneck, stuck for hundreds of years, and I can't take that step.

This dilemma is actually shared by many true immortals, even including the Dragon King of the Four Seas. In their heyday, they were also the existence of sweeping the heavens and the earth. It's just that when it reaches a peak and can't continue to break through, it turns from prosperity to decline and begins to decline.

They also can't understand why they can't go one step further in their heyday.

Time flies, the years are ruthless, and then I finally realized that I lacked a merit, so I couldn't get the recognition of heaven.

Merit said, began to prevail. The great powers of all parties have used their means to accumulate merit.

It's just that Zhao Lingtai, a rising junior, how can he behead the three corpses?

Cutting off the two corpses is almost equivalent to the realm of the Sword Ancestor level, and if he beheads the third corpse again, it means that he is officially sanctified.

How is this possible?

Suddenly, the Immortal Emperor seemed to think of something, and stared at Zhao Lingtai with his eyes: "With a half-demon and half-human body, you can unite the two clans to form an alliance, so as to achieve peaceful coexistence, this is a virtue?"

Zhao Lingtai said with a smile: "The sky is unpredictable, you can't say it, you can speculate." ”

Several demon kings also understood it, and suddenly realized one by one: the concept of merit is vague, it has nothing to do with good and evil, wrong and right are difficult to distinguish, and it is all up to each to comprehend. But if it is really as the Immortal Emperor said, Zhao Lingtai can get along with the two clans on an equal footing, and he is indeed of immeasurable character.

And it's really possible for him to do it.

On the one hand, he is the ancestor of the sword, the only true inheritance. The Sword Ancestor originally had great fame and prestige among the human race, and he was deeply supported. These, of course, were inherited by Zhao Lingtai;

On the other hand, Zhao Lingtai was demoted to the mortal world, incarnated as a dog, and had a demon body, thus cultivating the "Corpse Sutra". In this way, the demon clan's recognition of him is completely different. At least not repulsively.

The identity is righteous, one person monopolizes it, and he gets a big advantage.

Of course, this cheapness can only be done by chance, and it can hardly be replicated.

The golden eyes of the Divine Ape Demon King flashed: Zhao Lingtai has virtue, but it is still not enough, and he has to have "merit". This is easier to understand, meritorious deeds, since it refers to this war. Because only when the demon clan wins and defeats the Immortal Emperor can the heavenly court be smashed, the heavenly system can be abolished, and the freedom of the gods and goddesses can be restored.

This is the main premise, if you don't have it, everything is nonsense.

The Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor obviously thought of it too, straightened his waist, and grinned: "Virtue is not meritorious, and it is in vain." This battle will make you waste your efforts. ”

Zhao Lingtai said proudly: "Really?"

After a pause, he shouted: "You don't do it yet, when will you wait!"

said that it was too late and that time was fast, and I saw that the Guangmu Heavenly King and the Heavenly King of the Holding Kingdom sacrificed their magic weapons and bombarded the Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor, and several others such as Guangqing Immortal Venerable attacked at the same time.

Rumble!

There was a huge bombardment that shook the sky, as if it were about to fall.

This change made countless people stunned and difficult to accept.

Heavenly Court has an internal response, and several demon kings know it. Otherwise, it would be impossible to complete the battle and come all the way to attack the heavenly court and send him to death.

This internal response is not from the demon clan, but the legacy of the Sword Ancestor.

As a great power who once stood side by side with the Immortal Emperor, the protΓ©gΓ© of the Sword Ancestor, as well as his close friends, were once all over the Immortal Domain. Later, when encountering a catastrophe, the court was scattered, some of them fled, some of them surrendered, and some of them endured humiliation and attached themselves to the command of the Immortal Emperor.

This part is today's internal response.

The Immortal Emperor was attacked, suffered a loss, and flew back sharply, but he didn't panic, and he was about to launch the Heavenly Strip.

Tiantiao is a Dao treasure, once it is planted, then the life and death of this person will be controlled by the Immortal Emperor. It can even be said that the person who was planted with the Heavenly Strip, his every move was actually not hidden from the eyes and ears of the Immortal Emperor.

This is also the root of the Immortal Emperor's reassuring use of people, as long as these internal should be slightly moved, he will be able to be clear.

In that case, how can the other party withstand the wind and waves?

However, this time, the Immortal Emperor miscalculated. He couldn't sense the Celestial Strip in the Wide-Eyed Heavenly King at all.

"It can't be!"

The Immortal Emperor who was holding Zhizhu lost his temper for the first time.

Over there, Zhao Lingtai said: "There is nothing impossible, the heavenly strip in their body no longer exists." ”

Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor's body trembled slightly: "This, this is the Sword Ancestor's hands and feet again, he first placed the Qi of Creation on you, and then you pretended to surrender and let me plant the Heavenly Strip." But in fact, this Tiantiao was blinded by the aura and didn't really have an effect?"

Tiantiao is a Dao Treasure, and Creation Money is also a Dao Treasure, but the two have the nature of mutual restraint, so the Immortal Emperor is extremely jealous, and it is a heart disease, so after years of calculation, when everything is under control, he finally attacked the Sword Ancestor. I thought that I had destroyed this backbone in one fell swoop, and the remnants of the party were not to worry.

Everything was well planned and implemented quite perfectly.

It's just, where exactly is the business pool?

The Insiders are attacking, they can't be reckless, they're waiting for an opportunity.

The Demon Clan's large-scale attack on Heavenly Court was an opportunity, but it was still not enough. If Zhao Lingtai hadn't shown great supernatural powers and the potential to achieve Dao Fruit, they wouldn't have made a move. After all, such an opportunity will only appear once, and if it fails, hundreds of years of hard work will be wasted and will come to naught, and there will never be a second time.

But now it's different, Zhao Lingtai has grown up far faster than he imagined, he fits the inheritance of the Sword Ancestor perfectly, and there is a tendency for the blue to be better than the blue.

As a result, he became the new backbone.

Then, the inner Ying fought together and gave the Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor an important blow.

Heaven is in turmoil.

Whether it is the Heavenly King or the Immortal Venerable, they are all high-powered existences, with heavy soldiers in their hands, they take the lead in reversing, and the people under them have lost their square inches, and they don't know what to do. Unlike these powers, the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals have all been planted with Heavenly Strips in their bodies, this is undoubtedly true, if they dare to disobey the will of the Immortal Emperor, they will suffer from the Heavenly Strip backlash, and they will not be able to exert any cultivation in their bodies, and they will not be able to resist at all.

But if you snort, it is obvious that the wind direction has changed.

So, they simply stepped aside and didn't care about anything.

At this moment, the great order of the Heavenly Court was gone.

Of course, there are also many Heavenly King Immortals who are loyal to the Immortal Emperor, but after this incident, these immortals are also a little at a loss.

From the first day of the establishment of the Heavenly Court, the supreme authority of the Immortal Emperor was established, and other immortals could only be courtiers and slaves.

For this, at the beginning, most of the immortals were complaining and unwilling.

What is cultivating immortals?

If you cultivate supernatural powers, you still have to be enslaved by people, you have to drink back and forth, and your body is filled with heavenly rules, who wants to?

It's just that the situation is stronger than people and they are powerless to resist, so they bow down and claim to be subordinate.

After the establishment of the Heavenly Court, a series of rules and regulations were implemented, monopolizing all kinds of cultivation resources on a large scale, and holding the lifeblood of cultivation.

But on this day, the gods saw the hope of breaking the shackles. As long as the Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor dies and the Heavenly Strip loses its owner, then the Heavenly Strip planted in everyone's body will also be dissolved and lose its effect.

In the past, the Immortal Emperor was too powerful, especially after he defeated the Sword Ancestor, his personal prestige reached the extreme, and the heavenly court was all trembling and obeying.

Now, the Immortal Emperor's unbeatable authority has been challenged like never before, and his weak side has been exposed.

He was wounded.

This point, the Heavenly King Immortal Venerables of the Inner Ying were keenly discovered.

Something went wrong in one place, and it quickly caused a chain reaction. The Xuanqiong Immortal Emperor immediately sensed the change in the people of the Heavenly Court, it was a change in the hearts of the people.

Even if they all cultivate into immortals, they always have a heart.

The human heart is the most unpredictable. Even if you plant the heavenly rules, you can't fully grasp it. On the contrary, the more restrictive and repressive it is, the more it will rebound and resist, and eventually explode into a surging tide.

As a slave and a servant, he is most eager to turn over and become a master.

Heavenly Court, it's over.
