Although Qi Dezhong is not a Taoist, his cultivation method is from the Taoist family of cultivating immortals, and his understanding of reincarnation is not the theory of the six paths of Buddhism, but the endless cycle of natural life and breath. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoReincarnation is not an inextricable negative karma, but a natural principle, and if there is no such life, the world will return to the chaos of the wilderness.

As far as we can see, not only are all living beings in samsara, but all tangible things in the world are also in a greater reincarnation. The imperial capital is the place where the vitality of Kyushu gathers, this is not a place where the master of cultivation gathers with great mana, but the world returns to the heart, and all the business ideas are integrated, no wonder someone once said that "the feet of the Son of Heaven are good to practice", this statement does have merit.

What kind of mystical realm is Qi Dezhong is trying to explore is to detach from the form to know and cultivate? If we look at the vastness, the world of the primordial gods can accommodate all business thoughts, and this body is as if there is nothing, isn't it out of shape? Before all business thoughts, don't you look at thousands of things without a single thought, isn't it to know?

Detachment from form and knowledge can be mutually confirmed, not only simply focusing on the cultivation of the primordial spirit or body, Qi Dezhong is in the middle of enlightenment, and he feels very mysterious, as if even his own body shape is gradually becoming consistent in the color of all beings.

The Imperial Capital Worship Courtyard, located in the south of the Imperial City, west of the Vermilion Bird Long Street, opposite to the South Ya of the Hundred Officials, from the appearance, is the appearance of an ordinary official office, but it is a little less solemn, and a few ginkgo trees are planted inside, which have already been hung with ice ridges at this time.

In the past, there were not thousands but hundreds of practitioners in the imperial capital, except for those who were specially worshipped by the imperial family, that is, monks who practiced in the palaces and temples inside and outside the imperial capital. It wasn't until Feng Huazhen was named a national teacher that the worship court was officially established in Yujing City, which was like an independent official office, and there were few checks and balances.

However, for more than 30 years, the real people of the national teacher and the worship institute have not acted arrogantly, although there are cultivators who are proud of their high side, but they can still get along with ordinary civil and military officials.

After the establishment of the Worship Academy, the national teacher Feng Hua restrained the cultivators inside and outside the imperial capital, as if he was dispatching troops, and sent them according to the situation of various places, or collecting heavenly materials and treasures, or killing the demons that caused chaos, in short, he was deeply valued by His Majesty the Emperor today.

In Qi Dezhong's view, the Offering Courtyard is like a cultivation sect founded by the national teacher Feng Hua, but the power that this sect can rely on is the behemoth of the imperial court.

In this way, it is inevitable that the good and the bad will be uneven, so the national teacher Feng Hua pays attention to removing the essence from the turnip on weekdays, and there are no more than 100 people who really stay in the imperial capital, but there are more than 10 people who have left the form to know and cultivate, more than the vast majority of cultivation sects.

It's a pity that the cultivators are not invincible, and it is inevitable that there will be some losses when they are killed, since the uprising in the north and south of Kyushu, the masters of the worship courtyard have lost more than half, even if they are not cut off from the clouds on the spot like Huzhou Ke, they are also seriously injured, and they cannot use mana for a considerable period of time.

When Qi Dezhong and others came to the worship courtyard, it was already night, and the national teacher Zhenren entered the palace to discuss state affairs with the emperor, and the Huhai cultivators had to temporarily settle in the worship courtyard and wait for news.

"At this time, what other state affairs are there to discuss?" One of the cultivators in Huhai was dissatisfied: "Take the emperor directly to the south, and you don't need to pack up any belongings, anyway, the imperial family has no authority, what else do you want to do under this pretense?"

The emperor is not better than other places, and the cultivators of Huhai have been somewhat neglected so far, obviously they were called to support, but now after they come, they can't even see the real person of the national teacher, so they naturally won't be in a good mood.

Wang Qinian said worriedly: "It is said that even Jiang Shenxiao is seriously injured, and now the affairs of the imperial capital can be said to be completely on the shoulders of the national teacher, and it is inevitable that the emperor will be worried." ”

Qi Dezhong asked, "How is Jiang Shenxiao's mana cultivation?"

"The emperor is the god general who protects the country, and the Dao Law battle is rare in the world, and he alone led the army to resist the Heavenly King Sect for nearly three years, how can he imagine it. Wang Qinian sighed: "It's a pity that the Heavenly King Sect is also full of talents, and I don't know how they did it." ”

"Protecting the country and protecting the religion, the difference between one word, but the meaning is completely different, and the wishes are very different, if it weren't for Feng Hua as a national teacher, I'm afraid Jiang Shenxiao would not have this achievement in defeating the enemy. Qi Dezhong said: "I have seen the Xin Wuliang of the Heavenly King Sect, who is known as the first prestige in the sect, and the courage of the apologetics is invincible, presumably he is not far from the Yujing City now." ”

"Qi Daoyou, do you think that the Heavenly King Church is attacking Yujing City?"

Qi Dezhong shook his head and said: "I don't think so, the Heavenly King Sect has already gained the upper hand, there is no need to face the imperial capital's resistance at this last moment, not to mention that the battle and killing the head are in the heart, as long as the siege is not attacked and the wind is released, the people of the imperial capital will know that the Heavenly King Sect is not here for slaughter, and the will of the people will naturally be attached, which is a great benefit to the stability of the society in the future."

The real person of the national teacher must have seen through this, so he was not in a hurry to take the imperial family south, and he could delay it for a day, and I am afraid that he was also prepared for all kinds of negotiations with the Heavenly King Sect. ”

"Negotiations?"

Qi Dezhong smiled calmly: "If I were an elder in the Heavenly King Sect, I would have to face three priorities at this moment: stabilizing the rule of the Central Plains and speeding up the resumption of production, arranging troops to prevent the Chu army from taking advantage of the situation to go north, and taking the imperial capital Yujing City and completely changing the country. ”

Wang Qinian asked puzzledly: "In the eyes of Qi Daoyou, it doesn't seem that occupying the imperial capital is the most important thing?"

"What is there to occupy in a lonely city? Now there are only a few names left in Yujing City. Qi Dezhong explained: "I once led my disciples to travel around the Central Plains, and found that the Heavenly King Sect was far inferior to Jiangnan in resuming production, and even inferior to the Chu State, which was a great hidden danger for the future hegemony cause. Imagine why the iron-backed dragon can easily go south? The area between the rivers and the north of the river is full of uninhabited people for thousands of miles!"

Wang Qinian looked at Qi Dezhong with surprise in his eyes: "I thought that Qi Dezhong was only cultivating to a high level, but I didn't expect that he was also full of strategy! If you had entered the worship courtyard earlier, maybe the Qianchao Sheji would not have been like this." ”

Qi Dezhong sneered: "I can't save the Qianchao Sheji, let alone have this wish." The world is in turmoil so far, there must be people who need to pay the price, and it is also natural to change the heavens and the earth, and cultivators can just look at it coldly, it is unnecessary to start and enter the game, it is just a matter of adding to the killing!"

Yunxiao listened to it for a long time, lowered his voice and asked Qi Dezhong, "Master, what if you are the current emperor? What are you going to do?"

Qi Dezhong asked with a strange face: "You and I are both accomplished cultivators, how can we make such speculations for no reason? I am here, I am not a human emperor, there is no such assumption, as a teacher, I don't want to answer this question, and there is no need to answer it!"

"Oh, is this Daoist friend thinking so?" At this time, a person walked outside the worship courtyard, his eyes looked directly at Qi Dezhong, and he also locked the aura around him.
