Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Great Catastrophe
"Senior, how do you know my deposit?" Ever since I met Shen Gongbao, I was shocked by a series of information and has been ignoring this most important question.
Zhou Yi was shocked by the news of the three saints at this time, and only reacted after a while. Thinking of the information he got from the purple-robed old man, coupled with some bad conjectures in his heart, his divergent gaze instantly gathered and stared at Shen Gongbao burningly.
"Hehe, it's hard to do it, you think that you have traveled to the Honggu world, all thanks to that inexplicable thing. Sure enough, Shen Gongbao's words undoubtedly solved the doubts in Zhou Yi's heart. Moreover, in his words, there was also a trace of information, that is, Shen Gongbao did not know the root of the purple clothes. Perhaps the three saints knew, but they didn't tell Shen Gongbao.
That's right, the purple clothes are made of the condensation of several Hongmeng purple gases. Hongmeng purple qi is an opportunity for enlightenment, how can it be sued to Shen Gongbao, who has a back-to-brain!
"Please clear up your doubts!" Zhou Yiyi arched his hand and saluted solemnly towards Shen Gongbao.
"Hehe, you don't need to be called a poor Dao senior, just say a Taoist friend. Shen Gongbao stroked his beard and smiled proudly.
"The Flood World, well, it's too complicated to understand. Let me tell you this, do you know the Great Flood?"
"I know a little bit, such as the Lich Catastrophe and the Gods' Catastrophe. I don't know anything else. ”
"Hehe, that's right, the earth you are on is a fragment of the Flood Desolation Continent, and it can be regarded as the ancestral star of the Flood Desolation Universe! There are many stories that have been handed down there, and it is not surprising that you know some of them. Shen Gongbao didn't seem to be surprised at all that Zhou Yi knew this, because he himself was sealed in the East China Sea, although he was a water-dividing general of Laoshzi. But in the later catastrophe, the East China Sea was shattered, and he was bound to the earth by the Primordial Sage, although he was not free, he still knew a thing or two about some things on the ancestral star.
"The first tribulation is the catastrophe of opening the sky, Pangu opened the sky, three thousand innate demon gods plundered, Pangu was wiped out, and then when he opened the sky, he was unable to catch it and died;
The second tribulation is the dragon and phoenix unicorn tribulation, the dragon clan is the supreme in the water, the phoenix clan is the ancestor of the flying sky, and the unicorn is the overlord of the beasts.
The third tribulation is the tribulation of the lich that you know, the descendants left by the fall of the three ancient clans will form the demon clan with other flowers, plants, birds, beasts, insects and fish, ruling the heavenly court, the witch clan uses its strength to prove the Tao, and governs the land, the two clans kill the sky and the earth, the twelve ancestors and witches fall, the demon clan and the heavenly court are destroyed, and only the human race is cheaper;
This fourth calamity is the calamity of the gods, the three religions of human teaching, expounding religion, and intercepting religion signed a list of gods, competing for hegemony of the human race, the Yellow River Formation, cutting off the Taoism of many senior brothers in the poor road, and worshipping the Biyou Palace on Lingao Island,...... , hehe, the Great Array of Immortals, the Great Array of Ten Thousand Immortals, the Interception of Ten Thousand Immortals, the Western Sect of the two crossed three thousand red dust guests, and it was not worth it for them to sit on the big one for nothing. ”
Speaking of this, Shen Gongbao seemed to recall the original scene again, his face was hideous, his eyes were red, his eyes were full of tears, he shook his head, and sighed.
Immediately, he reacted to his task, wiped his old tears with his sleeves, and said, "Let you see and laugh!"
Zhou Yi's expression was solemn, he had never heard the secrets of the desolate world so systematically. Seeing that Shen Gongbao was a little embarrassed, he waved his hand again and again, signaling him to continue.
"Hehe, the Western Sect took away so many Immortal Saints in the Fourth Tribulation, but it didn't have the treasure of suppressing the sect's luck. The foundation is not stable, and it is a big deal how to help. Just rely on the twelve grades of merit golden lotus, oh, no, I was eaten by the mosquito Dao friends for three grades, and only nine grades remained......!
When I watched the "Fengshen List", I remembered that Baolian was eaten by mosquito people for three grades. Later, well, I remembered that the Nine Rank Golden Lotus was not given to the Buddha!?" Zhou Yi listened to the secret, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask out loud.
"Ha, since you have the heart to know, are you still afraid that the poor road will not explain!?" Seeing that Zhou Yi had been attracted by his words, Shen Gongbao's heart was even more excited, and he began to talk about the old things of the flood famine. I don't know if he is excited because he can fool Zhou Yi, or if he has not spoken for thousands of years, and he is excited because he can talk about it at this time.
"When the Flood Desolate World first opened, it gave birth to a Chaos Blue Lotus, which contained four lotus seeds. Because he couldn't stand the power of opening the sky, the Chaos Blue Lotus shattered. Among them, only one lotus seed is ripe, and it is the 36th grade pure world green lotus.
The level of the thirty-six pure world blue lotus is comparable to the innate treasure. However, because there is no merit in opening the heavens, it is not tolerated by the desolate heavens. After opening the world, it was divided into three and obtained by the three saints. The lotus flower obtained by the sage of the beginning turned into three treasure jade ruyi, the lotus root obtained by the Taishang sage turned into Taiyi dust, and the lotus leaf obtained by the sage of Tongtian turned into Qingping sword. It is the red flower, white lotus root, and green lotus leaves, and the three religions are originally one family.
Then, the three immature lotus seeds turned into three twelve-grade lotus platforms.
The twelve meritorious golden lotus was obtained by Hongjun Dao Ancestor, and was later given to the leading saint. Sitting on the lotus platform, the defense is amazing. It was originally the best innate spiritual treasure, and then it was eaten by the mosquito people in the catastrophe of the gods, and it became a nine-grade lotus platform, which made its quality decline. After the battle of the gods, the sage gave the nine-grade golden lotus to Duobao Na and tried to win him over.
The Twelve Rank Karma Fire Red Lotus is owned by the Blood Sea Styx Ancestor. Sitting on the lotus platform, the defense is amazing, burning karma and turning karmic fire, both offensive and defensive. The Styx guy is like a shrunken turtle, he has been hiding in the sea of blood in the underworld, and he just won't come out despite the bloody wind and rain outside. Therefore, all the catastrophes have always been free from cause and effect, and they are at ease.
The twelve-grade extinction black lotus was obtained by the demon ancestor Rahu. Sitting on the lotus platform, the defense is amazing, and it can absorb the aura of tyranny. Later, Rahu was destroyed by Hongjun Daozu, and the twelve-grade black lotus was obtained by Daozu. Because the danger of destroying the black lotus was too great, the Dao Ancestor no longer gave it to others.
Even if the twelve-rank merit golden lotus was complete, it was just an innate spiritual treasure, and it was not enough to suppress the luck of a major sect, not to mention that there were only nine grades left.
And the three thousand red dust guests of the three sects who have crossed the Qinglian Treasure Banner of the Western Sect are not as good as the Nine Rank Lotus Terrace, not to mention it.
Speaking of which, fellow Daoists, you can guess a few points, behind this is the catastrophe caused by Western Religion. Hehe, as many as 3,000 Hongchen guests, it caused the anger of the three sects, and he was able to teach the West without going through the calamity. ”
It seems that when it comes to this fifth catastrophe, the Western Sect is in turmoil, which makes Shen Gongbao extremely happy.
"I want to hear it!" The two helped each other and sat down cross-legged, and Zhou Yi's interest also rose.
"This fifth tribulation is the calamity of the Western religion. Fellow Daoists, do you know who the saints of the Western Church are? Do you know how they became sanctified?"
"O guide and quasi-guide! ”
"Then how do they become sanctified?"
I have seen many such myths and stories in my previous life. ”
"Haha, yes! The saint Nuwa was sanctified because of the creation of man; the three masters of Taishang, Yuanshi, and Tongtian were incarnated by the Pangu Yuan God, and received the merits of opening the heavens, and they were sanctified because of the merits of the three religions; they received the two of them, but they did not have the merits of opening the heavens, and they could not be sanctified by just establishing a religion, so the two of them made countless great wishes towards the way of the desolate heavens, vowing to spend all their lives in the world before they became holy.
Western religions are determined not to be stained with red dust and not to be stained with cause and effect. In fact, their two sect leaders were already tainted with great cause and effect when they established their religion. If you can't fulfill the grand wish of the common people, hehe, this atmospheric luck of establishing a religion and becoming holy will probably become a great karma for destroying the religion and destroying the sect.
Originally, if the Western Sect stayed in the Western Elysium honestly and did not get into the red dust, the other saints would not deal with them. After all, both saints, the two masters of the Western religion are not as good as the three masters of the human religion. Moreover, there is no innate treasure to suppress luck. As long as they are at ease, as long as there is a chance to spend their lives, the Heavenly Dao of the Flood Desolation will not liquidate them.
It's a pity! It's a pity that in the Great Tribulation of the Gods, they used the Qinglian Treasure Flag as the cause to cross the three thousand people in the two sects, and they hated the two masters of Yuan Shi and Tongtian. Sanqing is a family, how can the three masters give up. The human race is the protagonist of heaven and earth, and the Taoist system of the human race is the most important. In the battle for religious unity, the brothers and sisters who are close to each other have to fight to the death, not to mention outsiders like the Western Church.
After the catastrophe of the gods, the Taishang Master took the elder brother Duobao Taoist to the west, helped him incarnate as the Buddha of Sakyamuni, and used the Zhuxian Array to help Duobao transform into five Dharma Protector Ming Kings and establish the Hinayana Western sect.
At first glance, it seems that the power of Western religion has risen sharply, but in fact it is not. This trick is to replace Mahayana with Hinayana and distract the luck of Western teachings. After that, the catastrophe arose, Xuanzang traveled westward, originally wanting to take the Mahayana sutras, but in the end, it was the Hinayana sutras that he got in his hands. Since then, Dongsheng Shenzhou has preached the Hinayana sutras, which are far from the Mahayana sutras of the two saints taught in the West.
If you think about it, if it seems to be in the same line, in fact, it is a diametrically opposed system that replaces Western religion. Is there still a glimmer of success in the grand ambition of the two of them?
If it weren't for what happened after that, hehe, the Western religion would have died out long ago. Being a man and leaving a line is also their fate, which can be regarded as a great escape. ”
When Shen Gongbao said about the early stage of the Western Sect's catastrophe, his eyebrows fluttered, but as a result, he was a little unhappy, and seemed to deeply regret the great catastrophe of the Western Sect.
Why does this guy have such a big grudge against Western teachings!? Shouldn't he be hostile to teachings!?
By the way, if it weren't for the Western Sect's shouting of neutrality, but making several shots, the Tongtian Sect Master would not necessarily fail. At the very least, if it weren't for the action of the two saints of the West, the Taishang Saint and the Yuan Shi Saint would definitely have no way to take the Zhuxian Sword Formation that required the four saints to shoot together. Then, Shen Gongbao, who is closely related to the interception of religion, may be another ending.
No wonder, no wonder he has such a big grudge.
"So, what you said about this, does it have anything to do with the edicts of the three saints, and how do you know about me!?"
After carefully reminiscing about this desolate story, Zhou Yi woke up in horror, and was almost fooled by this guy.
