Taoist Master Xuanhuang

Chapter 427: Spiritual Master Abdicates

"Generally speaking, because of you, our Xia country is the most stable and the situation is the best. In this world where everyone is competing for the worst and where makeshift teams are in charge, we have achieved what we have now, and your contribution is invaluable."

Bi Xia gave a summary of his praise and expressed the role and effect of Xuan Huang.

It's not just a matter of attacking the Minghu territory. This is crucial, but not all.

To count them carefully, it started with the killing of Qiao Liangyu, which cut off this global cancer.

Even further back, the realm began to see a ten-year node.

The Department of Suppressing Evil has a statistic that cities or human settlements where there are cultivators are much more peaceful.

The places that pose the greatest threat to the realm are cities or regions where there are no cultivators. These are the places where the realm is most vulnerable.

The sacred realm cannot be left, but that does not mean they have no means.

It is still possible to enslave and subdue some humans, even though they resist the strange fusion of spiritualists, but it is a means of controlling people.

This is how the third general of the Yinxu realm arranged it.

The sacred has plenty of means to spread cholera in an area.

Think about how the three major battlefields appeared. Isn’t it the sacred means of the realm? There are many things that can be done.

However, from the current perspective, the three major battlefields are about to come to an end, or even if they do, they will not last too long.

The reason is very simple, it was caused by the Queen's attack on the Minghu Territory.

These sacred beings were afraid that Taoist Xuanhuang would settle accounts with them later, even though the second stage of recovery was less than fifty years away, when the fourth stage would be able to go out and walk.

It doesn't seem like a long time, but no one dares to bet on it.

Only some realms that cannot be reconciled with Xuanhuang's hatred, such as the Yinxu Realm, the Mangshan Realm, the East China Sea Realm, etc., are still maintaining the three major battlefields as usual.

Continue to consume Xuanhuang's progress, consume Xuanhuang's cultivators, and buy them time.

In addition, some realms that originally focused on participation have begun to withdraw from the three major battlefields and do not intend to continue to be hostile to Xuanhuang.

The situation is developing steadily and improving.

Xuan Huang and his disciples survived this test and stabilized themselves.

Overall, mankind has entered a new era since the ten-year mark.

"You are so polite." The Lord of All Living Things accepted the compliment calmly.

This is indeed the role played by Xuan Huang.

Although it is not wholehearted, it is still a role if it plays an indirect role.

"We came here this time to ask fellow Daoist if we can provide assistance to other cities. It would be best if the cultivators can stay there permanently?"

This time it was Han Wu who asked, she is good at this.

There is a reason for asking this question. The strange club has become Xuan Huang's Wanling Palace, and there is no so-called distance reason anymore.

As long as they want, monks can go anywhere through the teleportation of all spirits.

As long as it's in the Holy Land of Blue Star.

Even outer space is not impossible, all spirits can do it, but this ability is suppressed by the heaven and earth because the fourth level is not allowed to appear.

You need to figure out the transmission yourself.

“Probably.” said the Lord of All Beings.

"This?" The four of them didn't quite understand.

"It depends on whether the monks are ready. If they are ready, then it will work. If they still need some time to calm down, then it won't work." The Lord of All Living Beings said.

The key is to look at the four major ones.

Even though the Big Four have been rebuked many times, they are the ones who can hold on to the situation.

Some time ago, there was a period of internal sorting and digestion, which led to the No. 8 Middle School becoming the market maker.

As for the effect, it’s just so-so. No. 8 Middle School can’t sustain it, and it has caused the wrath of the people and the resentment among the independent cultivators.

Currently, the four major forces are ready and planning to return. In addition, with the weakening of the three major battlefields, more manpower can be freed up, and external expansion is possible.

"However, I don't think it's a big problem. The monks must have been prepared. The four Taoists can discuss this with the Merit Hall first and select a list of the most critical cities. When the monks take action, they can first enter these cities or strongholds."

The four of them breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. That’s good.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist." Bi Xia said.

"No need to be so polite, this is what we want to do."

The Lord of all living beings is open and aboveboard and does not hide anything.

Leave the important things for after they are done.

Bi Xia asked in a somewhat 'seemingly out of control' way, "I wonder what you think of the future situation, do you have any specific plans, can you give us some pointers?"

This sentence will become a key point, a crucial node.

Representing the mysterious revival and the fusion of all worlds, the mission of mankind's strongest guardian spiritual master has come to a temporary end.

From now on we will enter an era led by monks, an era where monks become the mainstream.

And, the best part is, this rotation of power was not achieved through conquest and bloody replacement, but was a very peaceful handover.

It did not lead to a large-scale brutal confrontation between the two forces.

It all started with Bixia's words.

His question represented this meaning. Otherwise, why would the spiritual master of the first force of mankind, the guardian of mankind after its mysterious revival, ask for the opinions of other forces?

He also specifically asked for some advice.

Who is Bi Xia?

He has always been the number one spiritual master, he was at the top from the beginning and has remained at the top until now.

The force he leads is the largest force, and this dual identity is the best proof of this.

"Thank you for your kindness, fellow Taoists. I don't deserve your guidance."

Although the Lord of All Living Things has the domineering attitude of "no one else can do it but me" and the momentum of controlling the world.

But he was still very polite to the four people headed by Bi Xia.

"This is the fact, this is the human heart, and this is the strength. Please don't be polite, fellow Daoist." Bi Xia said.

I don't know what he was thinking when he said this.

The other three ministers were actually a little disappointed.

After fighting for so long, and even though they felt a bit like ice and fire being incompatible before, the battle of ideas was getting closer and closer to the edge of a rupture.

Who could have thought that things had changed and the one who defeated him was not the opponent he thought he was, Bi Xia, Han Wu, etc., but a third party.

This third party, like a dimensionality reduction attack, directly swept away himself and his opponents.

Suddenly I realized that what I and others had done before was just a small fight.

It’s sad, a little.

If you want to talk about loss, yes there is.

But more of it is the complex emotion of helplessness in watching the flowers fall.

As the saying goes, it is not your peers who defeat you, but others who come from other fields.

Although he does not acknowledge the strength of the monks and acts like a coward, he can maintain his position for a long time by carving out a territory for himself, but in the end he is like trying to cover up his faults and is not what a gentleman does.

It is better to accept it calmly and be replaced calmly.

This is great courage, vision and wisdom.

What's more, Fellow Daoist Xuanhuang is not worthy of it!

The four of them came here after making this decision.

The power overlapped and shifted to the second line.

As for personal advice, it can only come second.

"Since you fellow Taoists want to listen, I will just throw out some ideas to stimulate discussion."

The Lord of All Living Things said this.

It seems very polite, but in fact he has already accepted it and acknowledged the overlap of power.

"Follow the will of this Lord, and do as much as you can. The first rule is: we, the Xia people, should take care of our own internal affairs first. Do you agree with this?"

The main path of all beings.

Although the four of them were great and philanthropic, they agreed with this view, but they had encountered thankless tasks before and had become discouraged a long time ago.

Bi Xia had risked his life to provide assistance to foreign countries many times before, and that’s how he gained such a great reputation and was recognized as the number one person.

But what is the result?
All I can say is it's a mess.

When using yourself, be extremely polite and even kneel down to beg.

After you have finished your work, you want to leave quickly and don't want to set up any branches. You Xia people are not welcome here. We don't want to be ruled by your Xia country. The public indignation is extremely great under your guidance.

Bixia has been hurt for a long time. Is this how you are ruled?

Who said before that we should go to provide support, and it would be best if we stay in the branch permanently to resist the strange crisis?

Good man, asking someone to do something one way but saying it another way after the fact.

This is why the Evil Suppression Department has always been the strongest spiritualist organization in the Xia Kingdom.

It’s not that we haven’t explored new areas before, but we always came back in disgrace.

Even if they are asked to protect such people, they will never do that again because they have seen through it.

Maybe the people at the bottom are good, but they cannot resist the instigation of local spiritual masters. They still believe in their own spiritual masters, not the spiritual masters of Xia Country.

Then what……

Then the evil tribe of Xiaguo Town was driven away, and these lower-class people were cruelly treated by the local spiritual masters.

One can imagine what is happening now that the rule of law has been destroyed.

Freedom was shot before the weirdness was revived, let alone the government was out of control after the weirdness was revived. It was a completely cruel environment of survival of the fittest.

The situation in Xia country was also bad before, but compared with other countries, it is outstanding.

What Bi Xia said about this makeshift team and this world of rottenness is absolutely true.

"We agree to this. Even if you don't say it, we will remind you. How should I put it... We tried it before, but it was a mess."

Bi Xia agreed directly and used his own blood and tears history as an example.

"Okay, this is the first point. It seems that we all have a common language, which is good." The Lord of All Living Things said with a smile.

It’s not that foreigners’ lives are not lives, and that there is no compassion or mercy at all.

But you should first make your own home good. After you have made your own home good, you should also help others. This is too much.

Moreover, the current world is no longer the stable world with complex relationships, trade exchanges, overcapacity, the need for layout, and the need to open up markets.

A world like that requires some means.

But the world that has strangely revived doesn’t need it. There is no trade at all. Being alive is already a great blessing.

"It's not that we are unwilling to help, but it's a thankless task. Seeking the Tao has always been difficult, and the Tao has always been something you can only hope for but not seek. The ancients said: It takes nine lifetimes of accumulating virtue and doing good deeds to earn you a chance to practice Taoism in the tenth lifetime."

"Practicing Taoism and learning the Dharma is a matter of chance and luck. I can spread it to my people without paying anything, which is already the greatest mercy. I can't do more. Different cultures have different ways of thinking. Others think that we are harming them by spreading the Dharma. People always don't cherish what is easily obtained. There is nothing we can do about it."

The Lord of All Living Things tried to save his dignity and gave some reasons for the existence of the facts.

This is hard to refute.

Not to mention abroad, even in China, if there weren’t so many mountains and rivers that there was no way out, who would believe me if I rashly said that you could come and learn my Xuanhuang Taoism?
Who knows if you are a liar and want to harm me.

And are you a human or a weirdo? Who can guarantee that you are not a weirdo and want to spread the unknown through Taoism?
This is the reason why Xuan Huang started to spread from the martial arts hall. First, let your own people believe in it. Once it works, you don’t need to say anything yourself. When everyone sees the benefits, they will flock to it.

This is Xuan Huang’s greatest kindness.

Of course, it is also related to crowdfunding for immortal cultivation. Xuan Huang is not really spotless and has no selfish motives.

This is impossible.

The current problem is that he is unwilling to participate in Xuanhuang crowdfunding, as he will face a lot of trouble.

Although he has the strength to sweep away everything, why waste his time on such a thankless task?

Believe it or not, go away, Taoist thinking still has its merits.

"What you said makes sense, fellow Taoist." The four people agreed.

Let's bring them into the picture, especially Zhao Zheng, Tang Zong and Han Wu, these three are the ones who have made the decision so far, let alone others.

"As for other aspects, it's hard to say because I'm not sure. But no matter what, strengthening yourself is always the most important thing. As long as your own cultivation is sufficient, you will be able to resist all risks, whether it's weirdness, falling stars, sacred realms, or small worlds, alien tribes, etc.... The only thing that can be determined is your own strength, so there is no need to worry about this."

It may seem like a lot of nonsense, but it has completely different effects depending on who hears it.

There are many uncertainties, but what is certain is that one’s own strength is sufficient.

This is what the four of them wanted to hear most, a confirmation.

Moreover, before, it was others who asked me this question. Now, I am asking others this question. If the roles are reversed, the situation will be completely different.

Before, it was a lighthouse, a golden beam that supported the sea and a jade pillar that supported the sky for mankind. It had to handle all the problems on its own.

Now it feels like I have put down a huge burden. I finally don’t need to move forward with the burden anymore. I have finally put down the huge pressure.

Someone else took it up.

And the one who carried it said not to worry, and that was the most beautiful thing to say.

"What about us spiritual masters?"

Bixia asked.

"Just follow your fate. If you want to become a monk, then do so. If you want to continue exploring the path of a spiritual master, that's fine too. Your efforts will not be wasted. Wu Hui You De has already re-entered the second level."

The Lord of All Living Beings said this, mentioning that the eight great Dharma protectors had no regrets and were virtuous.

These two were the first to become monks and were accepted by Xuan Huang as guardians of the Merit Hall.

Now Wuhui and Youde have returned to the second level.

The two of them were already second-level spiritual masters, so the Lord of All Living Things said that their efforts would not be wasted.

It’s fine if you want to be a spiritual master now, but if you don’t want to accumulate the knowledge to become a spiritual master, your efforts will not be wasted after you switch to the path of a monk.

Having no regrets and being virtuous is proof of that.

A third-level spiritual master can also quickly reach the third level by changing his path (compared to the speed of a monk).

From this point of view, if one has excellent spiritualist talent, it would be a good idea to go the spiritualist route.

If you can't go down that path, you can take the monastic path, which may be faster than taking the monastic path from the beginning.

Weird is the current protagonist of the emperor. With the blessing of the operation of heaven and earth, his progress is extremely fast.

This is the reason why a spiritual master can reach the third-level spiritual master in five or six years.

Whoever is the protagonist of the times will find it easier to create miracles and will be the most compatible with the entire environment of heaven and earth.

This is incomparable.
