Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 824: Premonition of the North Sea Turmoil

"Your Taoist has made great progress, which is truly cause for celebration." A sacred being with a sense of coldness appeared at the gate of Mingguang Taoist Sect with the help of moonlight. There was a hint of envy on his face as he spoke.

"It turned out to be Immortal Lord Guanghan."

"Counting it up, it has been 1,800 years since the Immortal King came here." Looking at the person who came, Taoist Master Mingguang also laughed.

The person who came could be said to be an old acquaintance of Mingguang Dao Zong.

Bright light is the light of the sun and the moon!

When disciples of the Mingguang Daoist sect practice, they must gather and refine the light of the sun and the moon in order to practice their Taoism.

Therefore, the Mingguang Taoist Sect has very close ties with some immortals and gods of the Sun and Moon systems.

——There are countless stars in the sky, and above each of those stars, there is a star god who controls that star eternally.

Among the many Taiyi, the status of Xingjun is quite transcendent - ordinary Taiyi, even if they are disciples of saints, will only have their Qi placed between heaven and earth and be almost eternal and indestructible when they attain enlightenment.

As for the star gods, they directly placed their Qi and their essence among the stars. Before they attained enlightenment, they already had the immortal power like Taiyi.

Among the many star gods, there are two who are the most special.

One is the sun.

One is called Taiyin.

Compared to ordinary stars, the power of the sun and the moon seems too terrifying.

Below Daluo, there is hardly any Taiyi who can bear the power of the sun and the moon alone.

While the star gods of the Sun and the Moon were in control of that terrifying power, they were also suffering from the torment of the Sun and the Moon at all times.

When they can no longer endure the torment, they will abandon their position as Star Lords and seek a place to retreat in order to digest the power gained from the refinement of the Sun and the Moon.

And this is the time when the new Sun and Moon star gods come to power.

In order to compete for the position of the Moon and the Sun, the gods in the Moon Palace and the Sun Palace would often call their friends and start a war.

As for Mingguang Dao Zong, when the immortals and gods of the Sun Palace and the Moon Palace are fighting for power, they will help the part that they are on good terms with.

And these gods who have received help will naturally return the favor to their own family members after the position of Star Lord is settled - even if they fail in the fight for power, they will use their influence in the Moon Palace and the Sun Palace to ensure that the light of the sun and the moon shining on the Mingguang Dao Sect is not affected.

Among the immortals in the Sun Palace and the Moon Palace, those who have the greatest hope of competing for the title of Star God will be revered as Immortal Gods - they are Guanghan Immortal God and Maori Immortal God.

At this time, the Immortal Lord Guanghan who appeared in the Mingguang Taoist Sect had already made a covenant of mutual assistance with the Mingguang Taoist Sect one thousand eight hundred years ago.

"Fellow Daoist Mingguang, the heaven and earth have changed. The power of the sun, moon and stars has increased. The Taiyin Star Lord and the Taiyang Star Lord of this generation have already shown signs of abdicating."

"Then the battle between the Star Lords may have to be brought forward."

Immortal Guanghan said.

She came, of course, to remind Mingguang Dao Zong to restrain his strength in preparation for the next battle for the Star Lord.

As he was speaking, another brilliant ray of fire fell - it was an immortal god from the Sun Palace, named Chi Ling.

Although he is not the Immortal Lord Mao Ri, he is also a god in the Sun Palace who has an appointment with Mingguang Taoist Sect.

"Fellow Daoist Chi Ling, are you also here for the fight for the Star Lord?" asked Taoist Master Ming Guang. Looking at Taoist Chi Ling's figure, Immortal Lord Guang Han frowned.

"Fellow Daoist Chi Ling, this generation of the Sun Star Lord should be able to hold on for another 1,300 years." asked Immortal Lord Guanghan.

Since ancient times, the sun and the moon have been inseparable - those who are on good terms with the Moon Palace will often also have connections with the Sun Palace, and will also participate in the fight for the Sun Star God.

However, in the past, there was a time difference in the rotation of the Moon Star God and the Sun Star God, so both sides did not care about this situation.

But now, the Sun Palace is taking over early, in line with the Moon Palace - so both the gods of the Moon Palace and the Sun Palace have to change their original plans.

After all, there are overlaps between their respective friends - if they come to the Moon Palace, they cannot go to the Sun Palace.

Even for a Taoist sect like Mingguang Daoist Sect, with so many Taiyi, it is impossible to focus on two things at the same time - if you want to take care of both sides, the only result is that you will lose both sides.

"Brothers, please wait for a moment. Perhaps we can achieve the goal of both sides." Taoist Master Mingguang interrupted the words of Immortal Lord Guanghan and Taoist Master Chiling.

With the strength of the Mingguang Taoist sect alone, it is certainly difficult to take care of both sides.

But, aren’t there thirteen Taoist sects in the North Sea?

What's more, what's even more coincidental is that the thirteen sects today have already shown a trend of unification.

With the strength of their thirteen sects, if they join forces and take care of the struggle between the Sun and the Moon at the same time, it can be said that they can easily win.

Moreover, this force beyond expectations stepping on the sun and the moon can increase the chances of both sides winning the competition for the Star Lord.

After contacting several other Taoist masters, Taoist Master Mingguang looked at the two gods from the sun and the moon.

"My two Taoist brothers, would you like to go with me to the Dragon Court to pay a visit to the Great Lord of Justice?"

Upon hearing this, Immortal Guanghan frowned again.

"Fellow Daoist, has the Mingguang Dao Sect already bowed down to the Great Lord of Justice?"

As he spoke, it was clear that the Immortal Lord Guanghan was somewhat displeased with Ao Bing.

This is not something strange - the Taiyin lineage can be traced back to the era of the demon clan.

Moreover, it is said that the oldest ruler of Taiyin, the wife of the Demon King, is still alive today - and the current Taiyin lineage can be traced back to this place.

Therefore, even now, the Taiyin Moon Palace maintains a very close relationship with the demon tribe in the North Sea.

At this time, Ao Bing blocked the North Sea - he certainly blocked the evil fairies and demons that entered and left the North Sea, but he also blocked the routes for the demons in the depths of the North Sea to come and go.

Although at this time, the immortals and gods who came and went did not deliberately target the demons when they killed the evil immortals and demons - but this blockade and strangulation had already really affected the interests of the demons.

If this blockade continues and eventually becomes a 'routine', then even if the North Sea is not a prison, it will be no different from a prison - and the monsters in the North Sea will naturally become 'sinners', beings with original sin.

This is something that Taiyin Moon Palace absolutely does not want to see.

Therefore, this time when Immortal Guanghan came here, she had a small selfish motive, which was to make use of the agreement between her and Mingguang Dao Zong to make Mingguang Dao Zong shift its attention from the North Sea to Taiyin - otherwise, according to the agreement they had already made, to get Mingguang Dao Zong's help, it would only require a letter, so why bother to take the risk of coming down from Taiyin?

You should know that most of the immortals in the Taiyin Moon Palace are Kun, and their appearances are often extremely beautiful. Moreover, the Yuan Yin accumulated from their practice of Taiyin is an extremely precious thing.

The combination of Yin and Yang is the most fundamental and original mystery between heaven and earth. Taiyin is also the most original Yin among the Yin and Yang of heaven and earth.

The Yuan Yin that comes out of Tai Yin has unimaginable mysteries in the way of Yin and Yang - in addition to dual cultivation, it is also very effective in refining magic, refining treasures, etc.

In the past, when the practitioners of Taiyin Moon Palace traveled between heaven and earth, only one in ten could return to the Moon Palace safely - one can imagine the dangers those Moon Palace immortals faced when they left the Moon Palace.

But now...

What the Mingguang Taoist Master expressed was that their Mingguang Taoist Sect had already submitted to the Great Lord of Justice and had established a master-servant relationship with the Great Lord of Justice.

If this is the case, then the order from the Great Lord of Justice to blockade the North Sea will obviously have a higher priority in the Mingguang Taoist Sect than asking them to go to Taiyin to help - and, judging from the attitude of the Mingguang Taoist Master, even if they go to Taiyin to fulfill their promise, it is unlikely to have much impact on the blockade of the North Sea.

While he was thinking, the voice of Master Mingguang sounded.

"Your word 'submissive' is a bit too much," said Taoist Master Mingguang. "As for the matter of submission... You and my sect have a deep connection, so you naturally know the origins of my sect."

"Now, the Great Lord of Justice is suppressing the North Sea and maintaining peace in the North Sea. What's so strange about me, the Mingguang Dao Sect, following in his footsteps?"

"Not only my Mingguang Dao Sect, but also the other twelve Daoists in the North Sea, their opinions are the same as mine."

Listening to the words of Taoist Master Mingguang, Immortal Lord Guanghan's thoughts became more and more profound.

She suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with the understanding of all the powerful people between heaven and earth regarding the matter of the Great Lord of Justice suppressing the North Sea.

After all, in the North Sea, the Thirteen Taoist Sects are the real local tyrants and the rulers who rule the area near the North Sea.

Under the thirteen laws, their will is the real rule near the North Sea - although at this time, the Thirteen Taoist Sects cooperated with the power of the Great Lord of Justice to blockade the North Sea, but this blockade was obviously impossible to last long.

After all, the move to blockade the North Sea is real, and it will require the consumption of a huge amount of resources and foundation of the Thirteen Taoist Sects. Even if the Thirteen Taoist Sects cooperate with the Great Lord of Justice at this time, as the resources they each consume become more and more difficult to replenish, the future of them and the Great Lord of Justice parting ways is almost inevitable.

It is for this reason that more and more heavenly officials and gods are "hunting" in the clouds of the North Sea, but no god has gone to the Dragon Court of the North Sea to pay a visit to Ao Bing - because everyone believes that the current situation in the North Sea cannot last long.

It is impossible for the will of the Great Lord of Justice to always cover the North Sea.

But now...

If it was true as Master Mingguang said, that the thirteen sects of the North Sea all turned to the Justice Great Lord overnight, then the entire North Sea would be completely transformed into the territory of the Justice Great Lord. As long as the Justice Great Lord was willing, the blockade of the North Sea could continue forever - until, after thousands of years, the accumulated resources and resources of the thirteen sects were exhausted.

During this process, if the Great Lord of Justice can provide the Thirteen Taoist Sects with one or two additional resources, then the blockade can be maintained for a longer period of time.

Also, there is the Lord of Justice himself.

A Great Lord of Justice who has no wings and is on good terms with both the Jie and Chan sects, but does not even have a stable base in the four seas; and a Great Lord of Justice who can use the vast North Sea as his base.

The influence and actual power that these two can exert between heaven and earth are completely incomparable.

And such a Great Lord of Justice, even if he went to their Moon Palace, could become a guest of honor in the Moon Palace - in other words, such a Great Lord of Justice was no longer something she could calculate.

If one wants to change the situation in the North Sea, it requires the Taiyin Star Lord of this generation, or she becomes the Taiyin Star Lord, or the Lord of Taiyin behind the scenes, to have an equal exchange with the Great Lord of Justice - an exchange with a vision covering the North Sea and beyond.

As for the demon race - considering the current status of the demon race between heaven and earth, unless the demon race's Daluo comes forward, any demon who comes over will not be able to have an equal and effective exchange with the Great Lord of Justice.

As for the Daluo of the demon clan...even if the Daluo of the demon clan is willing to come forward, it is impossible for him to step forward so early!

"It is still up to us, the Taiyin Moon Palace, to act as the go-between." Immortal Guanghan thought, and then bowed to Taoist Master Mingguang.

"The North Sea is close to the land of the Great Lord of Justice. I came here but did not pay a visit to the Great Lord of Justice. I am being disrespectful."

"I should go to the Great Lord to plead guilty."

"Please introduce me, Brother Dao."

……

"Does the Taoist really want to submit before the Great Lord of Justice?" When the Taoist Mingguang was leading the Immortal Lord Guanghan to the Dragon Court of the North Sea, a confrontation that was close to a split was taking place in the Yingxing Dao.

That was when Taoist Master Yingxing had achieved perfection in his cultivation. When the elders of the Yingxing Dao came to congratulate him, Taoist Master Yingxing took the initiative to talk about his plan to unite the thirteen Taoist sects and serve under the command of the Great Lord of Justice.

However, he did not expect that as soon as these words were uttered, they caused a huge backlash within the mountain gate!
The Thirteen Taoist Sects' Taoist traditions are based on ideals - but not all disciples of the Thirteen Taoist Sects act in accordance with their ideals.

In particular, after years of "hardship", many people have come to believe that their ideal is just empty talk that is impossible to achieve, just a "slogan" to rally people's hearts. As a result, those who originally acted on their ideals are also slowly degenerating.

In addition, their order has covered the North Sea for ten thousand years... Therefore, there are many "high and mighty" people in the mountain gates of the thirteen sects.

These high-ranking people do not take their ideals seriously, and only think about protecting their own interests or the interests and favors of their own lineage.

In Yingxing Dao, the representative of this part is Taoist Kuiming—coincidentally, he is the master of the deceased Taoist Yingxing!

Originally, they were going to use the life of Taoist Yingxing to set up the trap. Although Taoist Kuiming was unwilling, after being persuaded, he had no choice but to submit to the overall situation and give up the life of his own disciple in exchange for greater benefits for the mountain sect.

However, after Ying Xing Daozi died, the thirteen Taoist sects went to the Dragon Palace in the North Sea together. In the end, the thirteen Taoist sects obeyed the order of the Great Lord of Justice, wasted a lot of resources and blocked the area near the North Sea.

The death of his own disciple not only did not bring any resources, but instead made his own sect pay a greater price.

Taoist Kuiming had already been filled with anger about this.

——As for the combination of the laws of the thirteen Taoist sects and sweeping across the North Sea, in the eyes of Taoist Kuiming, what good is this?
Originally, they were the only ones who dominated their territory, and all the rules and laws were decided by Ying Xingdao alone - but now, the ones who are in charge have changed from them to the other twelve sects together.

Things that could be decided with one word now need to be discussed with others.

Is this a benefit?

This is clearly a weakening and suppression of their Ying Xing Dao!
Now, after hearing Taoist Master Yingxing's plan, Taoist Master Kuiming could no longer hold back his anger.

"I didn't know that the Dao Master's heart for seeking the Dao was so strong - in order to perfect his own body, he was willing to sell out the Dao tradition of Yingxing Dao that had existed for countless thousands of years!"

"Master, can you tell us how much you sold Yingxing Dao for in front of the Great Lord of Justice?"

“It can’t be that it’s just to make the Taoist master’s own skills perfect, right?” Taoist Kuiming sneered.

As Taoist Kuiming spoke, the energy in the hall suddenly split into two.

Those who supported Taoist Master Yingxing and those who opposed Taoist Master Yingxing squeezed each other with their energy, almost overturning the Ancestral Hall.

"Kui Ming!" Seeing this, the Yingxing Dao master lowered his voice. "Back then, you were just a little short of mastering the Yingxing Dao. The power of the Yingxing Dao, others don't know, don't you know?"

"I am the master of Taoism. The reflection of my merits is the manifestation of the laws of Yingxing Taoism. It is the manifestation of the unfinished ideals of my ancestors."

"If I abandon Dao Sect, my body will collapse on the spot instead of reaching perfection!"

"How dare you speak nonsense here and cause chaos among the people?"

"I am confusing people?" Taoist Kuiming stood up, his anger uncontrollably expressed.

"I will say nothing else—only You, Lord!"

"Since you started practicing, do you dare to take out your past one by one and compare it with the 72 death laws of the Heavenly Rules? Do you dare to say that your past has never violated the death laws at all?"

"If you want to bring Yingxing Dao to join the sect of the Great Lord of Justice, you will have to follow the seventy-two death laws in addition to the sect rules of Yingxing Dao. Even you have violated the death laws in order to maintain the laws of Yingxing Dao, let alone others?"

"Do you know how many of my disciples in Yingxing Dao are confused about the Heavenly Rules?"

"You are now going to join the sect of the Great Lord of Justice. Are you planning to punish and kill all the disciples who violated the Heavenly Rules?"

"Are you planning to punish and kill all the elders present who are not clear about their identities?"

"For the sake of Ying Xing Dao's laws and future?"

"Master, do you know how many disciples and followers will die for this law and the future?"

"The fellow Daoists are crossing again. I have 13 kinds of Northern Sea, but the foundation is incomplete. The Dao Master's law is the source of disaster, and it makes people puppets of the law."

"Master, now you can probably tell clearly whether it is because you have gained some insights and perfected the law of our sect, so it is perfect, or because you have become a puppet of the law, so it is perfect?"

"According to the sect rules of our Yingxing Dao and the traditions of the thirteen sects of the North Sea, if you, Dao Master, cannot explain this issue clearly now, we will have to change Dao Master for the sake of Dao statistics."

After Taoist Kuiming's words, even those who originally stood on the side of Taoist Yingxing, those who still defended their ideals, could not help but hesitate. They were not sure whether Taoist Yingxing had seen the future reflected by their ideals, or had become a puppet of the law like Taoist Kuiming.

Under such circumstances, the arrogance of Taoist Kuiming became even more overwhelming.

Under the questioning of Taoist Kuiming, even Taoist Yingxing himself fell silent - he was silent not because he was trying to prove that his power was not out of control and he was not taken away by the law.

But I didn’t know how to answer Taoist Kuiming’s question.

What should be done with those disciples who go against the rules of heaven?
How do we control the "degree" measured in the rules?

Sect rules and human relationships - these are things that are difficult to consider and measure in any sect.

For any sect, the longer it stands between heaven and earth, the weaker the sect's laws become, and the more involved human relationships become - even to the point where the sect's rules become meaningless.

This situation will continue until the Taoist tradition encounters serious problems, and then someone with an iron-faced and impartial character will set aside personal feelings to clarify the sect's rules and rectify its style, so that the Taoist tradition can be revitalized.

Taoist Master Yingxing himself was also clear about the situation in the mountain gate. Some of the disciples in the mountain gate did not follow the rules of heaven, and even if they followed their own laws and regulations, which were a little stricter and less tolerant, many disciples would be punished by the rules of the sect.

Since these disciples are like this, the elders will naturally be no exception.

For a Taoist school, this kind of thing is a "chronic illness" - it should be eliminated, but it is difficult to eliminate.

Even if one wants to get rid of it, one can only do it slowly. Once one is too hasty, the entire Taoist school will be seriously damaged - just like a person whose internal organs are injured, and in order to heal the wound, he cuts off half of his body.

The injury was healed, but his life was most likely lost.

Thinking about these things, even Taoist Master Yingxing himself was suddenly shocked!
As for the problems in the mountain gate, they should take it step by step, use the time to blockade the North Sea and wipe out those evil fairies and demons, and make clear both inside and outside, so as to give an explanation to the Great Lord of Justice and make it impossible for him to find an excuse to take action against them - this was the decision made by the thirteen Taoist masters when they left Dragon Court.

But now, why did I forget this sentence and become so eager for quick success?

"After that, I got too carried away!" Taoist Master Ying Xing put his hands together and pinched himself secretly - then he found the reason why he got too carried away.

It was because of the perfection of his body, the perfection of his law, and the manifestation of the future, all three of which appeared at the same time, so that in his heart, the only thought left was to rush into the future and realize the long-cherished wish passed down for more than a hundred thousand years. However, he ignored the reality that the Taoist tradition was already seriously ill and could not "run" at all.

"This is trouble." Taoist Master Yingxing thought.

Under the current situation, the attitude shown by the Taoist Kuiming in front of them was almost like forcing a palace - if it was not handled properly, the Yingxing Dao, which had been passed down for tens of thousands of years, would fall apart.

And this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that once Yingxing Dao falls apart, the blockade of Beihai will be difficult to sustain, and there will definitely be a war within Yingxing Dao. During the war, Beihai will be in chaos, and the Great Lord of Justice will definitely be disgusted with them. At that point, all future and ideals will be gone!

"What should I do?" For a moment, Taoist Master Ying Xing was at a loss.
