I have a hundred clones.

Chapter 1806: Water Margin Cave Heaven, Red Mansion Cave Heaven

Cao Ya and Sun Wukong looked at each other and watched with interest.

"Serving as an official in the court is actually not our forte," Wu Song said in a deep voice.

Lu Zhishen also laughed and said, "Brother, we will not go back to Tokyo City."

"Without relatives or treasures, stay there. Even if there is a mansion, there is no need to live there anymore. When you go back, brothers, take it back and reward the meritorious soldiers. Don't worry about us getting angry. We all agree."

"Hu." Lin Chong waved his hand, and the magic spear disappeared. He held his wife's hand tightly with one hand, and his face was full of joy.

"We only have some magical powers, but we don't know anything about domestic affairs, people's livelihood, marching and fighting."

"Returning to Tokyo and taking up an important position is like a cuckoo taking over the magpie's nest."

"How to govern the world and let the people live a good life...Brother, that depends on you."

"However, if war is necessary, we will never retreat. We will stand up and fight against the powerful enemy!"

Not only Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and Lin Chong, but also Gongsun Sheng, Shi Xiu, Yan Qing and others, all bowed their hands to express the same wish.

Perhaps one might have once yearned for a career in officialdom, but later one also understood the cruelty of political struggle.

Joined Liangshanpo, established the Xing Dynasty, defeated various forces, and achieved unification...

Their life goals were mostly achieved. Moreover, they also believed that Song Jiang could benefit the people and create a glorious and prosperous era with peace and prosperity for all!

As for what will happen in the future...that is the business of future generations, no one can predict the future!

Now that the crisis has been resolved, the powerful enemy has been defeated, and the Star Dynasty has been completely stabilized, what is the point of them staying?

In official circles, playing tricks is definitely not their forte.

Furthermore, how to implement government orders, govern the country, and let the people live a good life, have enough food and clothing, and have universal channels for upward mobility... They are almost clueless about this.

After much thought, they decided that it would be more suitable for them to retreat while the going was good, so as to prevent their past brotherhood from being destroyed by cruel political struggles.

"My brothers..." Song Jiang clasped his fists, but he knew that these people had already made up their minds and could not be persuaded.

"No matter what time, Tokyo City is always open to brothers!"

Lu Zhishen said with a smile: "Brother, this Southern Continent has all belonged to the Xing Dynasty. Your burden is still very heavy. Don't forget the concept of 'loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and act on behalf of heaven'!"

Song Jiang replied solemnly: "Don't worry, brother Zhishen, Song Jiang will never forget it!"

"To pursue world peace and harmony, so that everyone can live in peace and contentment, this is the greatest goal of Xingchao!"

Then, Song Jiang extended an invitation to the girls in the Red Mansion:

"Xian De Fei..."

Jia Yuanchun shook her head, smiled helplessly, and said, "Xinghuang, you should still call me Jia Yuanchun, and don't mention the title of 'Xian De Fei' of the Great Shen Kingdom anymore."

"Now Jia Yuanchun is just the daughter of the Jia family, and has nothing to do with Dashen anymore."

Song Jiang bowed and said, "I am sorry for being rude."

"Girls, please go to Tokyo City for a chat! You have all made great contributions and should be canonized as dukes and princes of the Great Star Dynasty, hereditary and uninterrupted, and live and die with the country!"

Hearing this, Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "Xinghuang, we are all women."

Song Jiang waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay! There was an example of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty conferring titles on women. This was because a meritorious official died, so his female relatives took his place... Each of you is a meritorious service to the Xing Dynasty. If I don't confer titles on you, Song Jiang will feel guilty."

Xue Baochai declined: "Thank you, Emperor Xing, but we have no intention of entering the officialdom."

If it were many years ago, Xue Baochai would definitely seize this opportunity and enter the officialdom!

But after experiencing so many things, understanding her past and present lives, and knowing about Dream of the Red Chamber and Water Margin... Xue Baochai no longer pursued any power.

In fact, the original desire was also because the Xue family was in decline and deteriorating, and someone was needed to stand up and support the family.

Now, she is a quasi-saint at the peak level. Even if she doesn't go to the Great Shen Kingdom, the Xue family will never decline.

On the contrary, they can live their lives in the world according to their own wishes without having to worry about any relationships.

This is especially true for Lin Daiyu, Shi Xiangyun, Jia Yingchun, Jia Xichun and others.

Jia Yuanchun, Wang Xifeng, and Jia Tanchun may have been a little tempted at first, but after serious consideration, they all gave up.

The officialdom is too dark. No matter how clever you are, you can easily be deceived.

Besides, they have no foundation in the Xing Dynasty. Even if they have made great contributions and can be canonized naturally, their subsequent promotions... may end up being used as pawns in political struggles!

The most important thing is that after the two wars, the Grand View Garden Incident and the Southern Continent Battle, they all understood that in this vast world, strength is the most important thing!

Even if the officials of the imperial dynasty gained some human luck and their power increased greatly, there would always be a day when they would have to retreat.

Just like Shinto, it has many restrictions.

How can it compare to the freedom of being an immortal?

Together with Chai, Dai, Sanchun and others, they live in seclusion together, sharing the same blood, helping each other, and having relationships with the Star Dynasty, as well as good friends like the Monkey King and Ketu the Star Lord... They should have a place in these three realms.

In fact, they are much freer and more respected than the officials of Xing Dynasty and Dashen Dynasty!

Therefore, it is not surprising that the golden hairpins declined.

Song Jiang, on the other hand, expressed deep regret.

He actually hoped that the Golden Hairpins could go to Xing Dynasty to achieve a balance of power among all parties.

However, Song Jiang also has the confidence to win over all the meritorious officials, secure the throne, and implement policies that benefit the people.

In response to the departure of those evil stars and golden hairpins, they had no choice but to send away many treasures as a reward for their great contributions.

Immediately afterwards, Song Jiang gave orders to the three armies to occupy the former territories of the Liao Dynasty and the Western Xia Dynasty respectively.

Afterwards, how the unified Xing Dynasty would manage the Southern Continent was a headache for Song Jiang, and he needed to discuss this with Wu Yong, Zhu Wu and others.

But as the founding emperor, the only one in charge of Southern Continent, Song Jiang felt more joyful!

Wu Yong, Zhu Wu, Suo Chao, Xu Ning, Hu Yanzhuo, Yang Xiong, and even Lu Junyi and others did not leave. They followed Song Jiang and spread the majesty of the Xing Dynasty to all directions!

Afterwards, except for some soldiers who stayed behind to guard the newly conquered territory, most of the people returned to the court at Song Jiang's order.

Everyone was beaming with joy, looking forward to being crowned the Star Emperor after returning to Tokyo City!

In his heart, Song Jiang was also thinking that he should not treat the meritorious soldiers badly.

In this regard, the two military advisors, Wu Yong and Zhu Wu, were reluctant to speak freely.

Otherwise, it would be easy to offend the heroes!

However, the current Xing Dynasty, under the leadership of Song Jiang, is united, and there are no twists and turns or internal strife.

There is no need to speculate on the future development. But at least, in the next 100,000 years, the national power of Xing Dynasty will be in full swing and grow stronger!

It can be predicted that Xingchao will reproduce the glory of Han and Tang Dynasties again!

******

"Boom!!!"

Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Gongsun Sheng, Shi Xiu, Yan Qing and others worked together to open up a blessed land among the sacred mountains and rivers of Nanshanbuzhou with their quasi-saintly powers.

This would be their retreat from now on.

"Let's call it... Water Margin Cave Heaven." Gongsun Sheng flicked his whisk and looked in the direction of Tokyo City.

He was a high-level quasi-saint and could clearly observe that Song Jiang, Lu Junyi, Wu Yong and others had also opened up a cave, which was the ancestral temple of the Star Dynasty. There was a flow of human destiny, which allowed abdicated emperors and generals to live there without suffering backlash.

Of course, those who have made outstanding contributions do not have to enter the Star Dynasty’s ancestral temple, but can go directly to the Fire Cloud Cave!

"Water Margin Cave Heaven?" Cao Ya chewed on the name and couldn't help but smile.

"Good name!"

Lu Zhishen said with a smile: "Water Margin, although it was the calculation of those big men, we turned the tables and slapped the big men in the face. But it just happened to be a name, and it also warned us not to slack off in our practice!"

Wu Song whispered: "To truly stabilize the Water Margin Cave Heaven and not be afraid of being peeped at... at the very least, we need a weak saint to take charge! We are still lacking now."

The most powerful among the Water Margin demon stars are Wu Song and Lu Zhishen, but they are only quasi-saints at the peak of the ninth heaven. Then there are Gongsun Sheng and Lin Chong, who are high-level quasi-saints. People like Shi Xiu and Yan Qing are only elementary or intermediate quasi-saints.

Speaking of which, this large group of quasi-saints is not weak at all, and they are enough to dominate the world of earthly immortals!

But you have to know that those who covet the achievements of Water Margin include the Jade Emperor, Taoist Taixu, Taoist Chixia, the Spiritual Jade, as well as the Chaos Thousand-Tentacle Octopus, the Demon King Poxun, etc. Among these big figures, the worst are weak saints, and among them there are also real Hunyuan!

In comparison, the strength of Shuihu Dongtian is indeed not that impressive.

"Relying on the Water Margin Cave Heaven... we set up the top immortal formation, and added rare spiritual treasures to serve as the center of the formation... and then infuse it with the power of the quasi-saint..."

Yan Qing said in a resolute tone: "If one or two weak saints come to attack, we can resist for hundreds of rounds!"

Shi Xiu nodded, his eyes flashing with hostility, and said: "At worst, we will fight to the death! We will fight to the death. Even if we cannot take the weak saint with us, we can injure him and delay his sainthood... There is absolutely no problem!"

They are all experienced in battle and are not afraid even when faced with huge threats.

"You have all opened up the Water Margin Cave, so let's create a Red Mansion Cave." Suddenly, Wang Xifeng spoke with a smile.

The location of Honglou Dongtian is not in Nanshanbuzhou, but in Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai are two peak quasi-saints, Wang Xifeng, Shi Xiangyun, and Jia Tanchun are also high-level quasi-saints. There are also Jia Yuanchun, Jia Yingchun, Jia Xichun, Xiangling, Qingwen, Xiren, Ping'er, etc., all of whom are at the quasi-saint level. Even Si Qi, Zijuan and others are at the peak of Daluo and their power is not weak.

Dozens of girls joined forces to carve out their own paradise in the world of immortals, and they could exist there for a long time without any problems.

People like Lin Ruhai, Jia Min, Xue Baochai's father, Shi Xiangyun's parents, etc., all live in the Red Mansion Cave, just like Wu Dalang, Mrs. Lin and others, who live in the Water Margin Cave.

With the protection of a group of magic stars and golden hairpins, it can be said to be quite safe.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Water Margin Cave Heaven and the Red Mansion Cave Heaven are two major forces in the world of immortals!

Cao Ya and Sun Wukong first visited the Water Margin Cave with the golden hairpins and drank happily.

Afterwards, he and Moxing went to the Red Mansion Cave for a banquet. The atmosphere at the banquet was harmonious and both the guests and hosts were having a great time.

Sun Wukong's dojo is the Flower-Fruit Mountain, located in the Dongsheng Continent.

In fact, it is not far from the Red Mansion.

Of course, when one reaches the level of Daluo or Quasi-Sage, it is easy to cross over to the world of earthly immortals. Billions of miles of rivers and mountains can be flattened in one step!

Even the Water Margin Cave Heaven in Southern Continent is just right in front of Sun Wukong's perspective.

As for Cao Ya’s dojo…it is located deep in the northern starry sky of the heaven!

After the two feasts, everyone returned to their respective dojos, and Cao Ya also left the Earthly Immortal Realm.

"Dream of Red Mansions, Water Margin... Now, the crisis has been remedied, and there are no regrets."

He suddenly turned around and looked at the two caves with a smile on his lips.

He knew that Daiyu, Sichun, Shi Xiangyun, Wang Xifeng, Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong and others were all in the cave, practicing hard in order to make progress and even touch the threshold of becoming weak saints!

However, it is not easy to advance to the quasi-saint realm. Even though Jinchai and Moxing both have extraordinary talents, excellent comprehension, and have integrated their own achievements, and have been greatly inspired, it is still extremely difficult for them to become weak saints.

"With me and Sun Wukong, the characters from the Dream of the Red Chamber and Water Margin will no longer be stuck on the chessboard."

"Within the two caves, relying on the geographical advantages, we can completely defend against the attacks of one or two weak saints."

Chai Dai, Wu Song, and Lu Zhishen are all quasi-saints at the peak of their powers. They are already extremely powerful, and with the assistance of many powerful people, as well as the right time and place... it is not surprising that they can fight against weak saints.

After all, a peak quasi-saint is only a step away from being a weak saint.

Although this one-step difference is a world of difference, it may take countless epochs to cross it!

But those four people obviously did not belong to this category of peak quasi-saints.

Their achievements, after being fully digested, were not damaged at all; on the contrary, they were very solid.

The mysteries of the realm of weak saints were also vaguely understood, and there was hope for a breakthrough.

"It would be best if we could break through as soon as possible."

******

The two cases were concluded and became the talk of the three realms. In the following hundreds of thousands of years, many immortals and demons talked about it with relish, lamenting the terrifying nature of the Monkey King and Ketu, as well as the good luck of the Demon Stars and the Golden Hairpin!

During this period, the stories of "The Lotus Lantern" and "The Complete Biography of Jigong" have also gone through a lot.

Chenxiang and Jigong are both at the pinnacle of the quasi-saint realm!

Even the little fox Xiaoyu is only a stone's throw away from becoming a high-level quasi-saint.

But unexpectedly, Jigong, as the reincarnation of Arhat Subduing the Dragon, did not return to the Leiyin Temple in Lingshan after his cultivation breakthroughs, but continued to travel in the mortal world.

Wu Tian Buddha also quietly found Ji Gong, promised him great benefits, and invited Ji Gong to join Wu Tian Buddhism!

Jigong did not agree, and although Wu Tian Buddha felt regretful, he did not attack Jigong.

"Buddha Wu Tian, ​​why don't you kill him?" asked the demon king Po Xun.

If we keep the Subduing Dragon Arhat, there is no guarantee that at some point the Mahayana Buddhism in Lingshan will have one more weak saint.

"Jigong, he shouldn't die!" Buddha Wu Tian said lightly, looking at Jigong's departing back from afar, with a hint of envy in his eyes.

However, in the next second, Buddha Wu Tian suppressed his abnormal emotions.

He is no longer Kinnara Bodhisattva, but Avalokitesvara Buddha!

How to overthrow Mahayana Buddhism and spread the essence of Wu Ti Buddhism to the world is the top priority!
