I am already immortal, why should I ascend to become an immortal?

Chapter 265: The origin of Queqiaotian, Laojun's conspiracy; Lu Buwei admits defeat

It’s not that there haven’t been disputes among immortals.

But this seems to be the first time that their lives are at stake.

The golden cicada, buried deep underground, carried the towering mountains on its back with its brocade robe, and its nine-ring tin staff competed with the six-character mantra in the air.

For a while.

The world was bathed in golden Buddha light, and the sun, moon, and stars all dimmed.

All the immortals, who were in various shapes and sizes, held their breath and watched this showdown between Buddhists.

The skinny Buddha of the past, who had not a pound of flesh on his body, sat at the dining table next to the Milky Way with his palms clasped together, closed his eyes and chanted "Namo".

The fat Future Buddha still had a smile on his face. He touched his big belly and stared at the golden cicada thousands of miles away.

"Give me, get out!"

Jin Chan yelled in rage.

The six thin wings behind it suddenly grew larger, extending to the end of the sky and the earth, and then flapped slowly from the horizon. Under the shining Buddha's light, the wings sparkled with golden light.

The slight movement of the wings caused a strong wind and huge waves, which seemed to be able to overturn the ocean, shift the mountains and rivers, and even disrupt the arrangement of stars in the universe.

There was a click.

The six-character Buddhist mantra shattered into light, and five mountains collapsed in an instant.

"'Now', wait for me to take your Buddha seat."

Wearing a brocade cassock and holding a nine-ring staff, Jin Chan returned to the Ullambana Festival in a moment and stood in front of the Nine Supreme Immortals.

Although his body is the same size as that of a human, even a giant immortal with the sky above his head and the underworld under his feet would not dare to go forward in vain and bring bad luck upon himself.

"Jin Chan, put down your butcher knife and survive the eighty-one disasters. Now I can forgive you for your bad words."

“Brother Jin, just admit your mistake and forget about it, otherwise we will have no choice but to take action.”

I saw the Past Buddha and the Future Buddha flying upwards from the side of the Milky Way and standing in front of Jin Chan.

It seems that he intends to take action to stop this farce.

The white dragon colt, who was watching from below, was so anxious that he stomped his horse's hooves on the ground and flew high into the sky, ready to fight side by side with the golden cicada.

"Boss, these two guys have also taken action. Can we still win?"

"Let's fight first. If you lose, I'll just hide in the Bronze Palace. I'll see who can do anything to me!"

Jin Chan was not afraid at all. As soon as he finished speaking, he ignored the Future Buddha's advice and waved the Nine-ring Staff, chopping down at the top of the halo where the present Buddha was.

"evil creature."

The Buddha of the past opened his closed eyes.

He picked up the flower and pointed it with one finger, placing it on the tip of the nine-ring tin staff.

Instantly.

A huge impact spread out from the center of the fight between the two men, blowing the Ullambana Festival into chaos.

The jade table and stone chairs were blown to the ground.

Several agate pillars that reached the sky were turned into powder and scattered to the ends of the earth.

The delicacies disappeared without a trace in an instant, just like fallen leaves swept by the wind.

At the dining table, Guanyin frowned.

Although she was not affected, the internal strife in Buddhism made her lose her appetite at this moment, and the white meat in her mouth tasted like chewing wax.

He simply turned around, covered his mouth, and spat out the white meat in his mouth towards the mortal world.

This battle lasted for one hundred and thirty-three years, shaking the mountains and disturbing the day and night.

Jin Chan and Bai Longju fight side by side against the "past", "future" and the eight Bodhisattvas.

till the end.

The golden cicada used its nine bodies and thirty-six wings.

The Yulan shrine was destroyed.

The supreme "present Buddha" of Buddhism and the supreme of Jiulong Island took action at the same time, forcing Jin Chan to open the Bronze Heavenly Palace, and temporarily take refuge in it with his bloody body and the white dragon colt.

Another ten years passed.

Kowloon Island.

Lu Yue, who was injured by the golden cicada that day, is now on the verge of death. Even the elixir from the Tushita Palace cannot cure him, and his life has come to an end.

Therefore, after discussion, Jiufang Tiangong opened the Immortal Burial Mountain and sent Lu Yue to the tomb.

The immortals were all surprised. You know, immortals are rare, and as an immortal, Jin Chan was too cruel to take Lu Yue's life.

On the first night in the tomb, in the Immortal Burial Mountain, Lu Yue was barely able to breathe, his three heads were unable to lift up, and his nine eyes were so cloudy that they seemed to be covered with a layer of white mist.

There was no sound in the silent cave, it was so quiet that it was frightening.

However, Lu Yue, who had lived for ten thousand years, still couldn't believe it. As an immortal, he should have lived as long as the heaven and the earth, so why did he die?

He was so angry. He hated that the Buddha now asked him to ring the plague bell. He hated Jin Chan even more for being so cruel and hurting his own roots.

"Emperor Haotian, are you okay?"

Suddenly, a small halo of light floated in silently from the entrance of Xianzang Mountain.

This sudden sound startled Lu Yue, but unfortunately his throat could not make any sound and his body could not move at all.

You must know that in the Immortal Burial Mountain, there is absolutely no living thing except the immortals who are about to die.

"The immortal is about to die, but the Tao has not yet disappeared. The time is right, and we can start."

Halo said calmly.

At this time, Lu Yue could not open his eyes or move his hands. He had no idea who this person was or what he was going to do.

"If we fuse the fragments of the immortal body and the plague bell together, and everything goes well, these mortals in the lower world will have the ability to kill the immortals."

"Emperor Haotian of Plague, please don't blame me!"

The halo dissipated, and a furnace made of meat suddenly appeared.

The furnace body has eight sides, all of which are printed with human faces, some even with white beards and eyebrows.

The stove feet are three flesh limbs and the handle is a flesh ear.

At the mouth of the furnace is a fleshy mouth that opens and closes.

If Lu Yue could see it at this moment, he would definitely be surprised. Isn’t this the Bagua Furnace of the one in Tushita Palace?

As soon as the Bagua Lu finished speaking, it opened its mouth, revealing rows of sharp teeth and a tongue with hooks and barbs.

Take one bite.

The Bagua furnace bit off one of Lu Yue's toes, chewed it repeatedly before swallowing it into the furnace.

that's it.

Lu Yue, who still had a trace of consciousness but was unable to move, could only silently feel his body being eaten away by the Bagua Furnace bite by bite.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

The Bagua furnace was already covered in blood at this time, and the long tongue had scraped off the meat on the bones until there was not a bit of it left.

As for the huge Lu Yue, which was as big as a mountain, there were only three heads left that had not been eaten.

"It's a good thing that the elixir I made helped Lu Yue get there in advance, otherwise I would have to wait for more than ten thousand years."

After eating a head, the Bagua Lu seemed to choke. After a burp, it suddenly uttered these words.

"what?"

Lu Yue was shocked. It turned out that he was not killed by Jin Chan, but by the elixirs sent by Tushita Palace. A deep sense of powerlessness came over him. Although Lu Yue wanted to tear up the Bagua furnace and go to Tushita Palace to ask for an explanation, he knew that all this was just wishful thinking. Now there were only two heads left, and he was still conscious. It was probably because of the elixirs before.

Another moment passed.

When the Bagua furnace swallowed up Lu Yue's last head, a silver-blue Liu Ding divine fire rose from the furnace.

Along with a trace of water from the Weak River, fragments of the Plague Bell, and Lu Yue's remaining limbs and flesh, they were burned and tempered together.

Gradually, a ring-shaped object appeared in the Bagua furnace.

"According to Laojun's decree, this thing should be named 'Partridge Sky'!"

Seventy-seven and forty-nine years later.

The moment the Central Plains' most powerful warrior, Partridge Sky, was forged, he was quietly spit out to the mortal world by the Bagua Furnace.

Another three thousand years passed.

The Bronze Fairy Palace descends again.

Jin Chan and Bai Longju took a quick look outside, and after finding that there were no immortals guarding the area, they walked out with a swagger.

"Boss, where are we going now?"

"Go to the mortal world, drink some wine, and make some mortal friends."

Jin Chan stretched himself and leaned over to look at the bustling crowd thousands of miles below.

"I remember now, I remember now, it was the Tushita Palace and the Bagua Furnace. It wasn't you who killed me, it was them, all of them."

Inside the Qin camp.

Lu Yue, who was trapped in the cage of ten fingers, suddenly started shouting like a madman.

The confusion in his memory made him mistake the golden cicada in front of him as the one that caused a disturbance at the Ullambana Festival thousands of years ago.

"Tushita Palace! Bagua Furnace!"

Tangqianyan and Bailongju looked at each other, not understanding what Lu Yue was crazy about.

"what is this?"

Jin Chan and Lu Buwei, two people who were born and raised in the mortal world, were puzzled.

"The Tushita Palace is one of the Nine Heavenly Palaces, and only Laojun, the immortal, lives in it. As for the Eight Trigrams Furnace, it is just a useless thing that eats people without leaving any bones."

Obviously, Bai Longju didn't have a good impression of the Bagua Furnace.

As he said this, his eyes rolled up to the sky.

"Jin Chan, my death has nothing to do with you. It was them, they turned me into this. Let me go. This time I will accompany you to fight to the sky. I want to seek justice from Laojun."

Blood gushed out of Lu Yue's eyes, and as he struggled, the cages around his ten fingers loosened a little.

"I'm not the one you know. You better be quiet, or I won't mind killing you right here."

Jin Chan pulled out the fish belly, but this time, he did not rush to stab it into Lu Yue's body. Instead, he only put the tip of the sword against the opponent's neck.

"Boy, this is not the way to persuade people."

The white dragon colt at the side raised its hind legs and kicked Lu Yue in the face.

However, this seemed to have some effect. Lu Yue, who was a little confused a moment ago, slowly woke up.

"What on earth did you mean by that, you poor bell-ringer?"

As one of the protagonists of the Ullambana Festival more than 5,000 years ago, Bai Longju was naturally curious about what Lu Yue had just said.

"After I was injured by the Golden Cicada"

Lu Yue panted and recounted the scenes he had just recalled.

After hearing all this, they were all dumbfounded and stood there in a daze.

Especially Jin Chan, he looked at the fish belly in his hand again and again, and couldn't believe that the fish belly sword that had accompanied him all the way could be melted and tempered from the corpse of an immortal.

"Wait, what does that old man Laojun want to do? Kill the immortals? Is he crazy?"

The white dragon colt covered its face and shook its head frantically. It couldn't figure out what the guy from Tushita Palace wanted to do.
In other words, this was not Laojun's attention, but the work of Bagua Furnace itself. However, this thought only flashed through his mind before being rejected by Bailongju.

Everyone in the Jiufang Heavenly Palace knows that the treasures in the Tushita Palace were all made by Laojun himself, and it is impossible for them to go against Laojun's ideas and make decisions on their own.

"Bai Long, help me get back to Jiulong Island. I'm going to Tushita Palace to ask for an explanation."

suddenly.

Just as Lu Yue spoke to Bai Longju.

I saw a silver-blue flame burning all over his body, and the moment the flame appeared, the ten finger cages melted instantly.

Lu Yue also became in great pain, and his body gradually shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, until he turned back into Partridge Sky.

"This is the Six Ding Divine Fire that Laojun uses to burn the furnace!"

Bai Longju swallowed his saliva. He was originally a little suspicious of Lu Yue's words, but at this moment he was confirmed by this cluster of Six Ding Divine Fire.

Picking up the partridge on the ground, Jin Chan put it in his arms.

"General Jin, can I have a private chat with you?"

Lu Buwei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly bowed to Jin Chan and asked.

Although he didn't know what Lu Buwei wanted to do at this moment, Jin Chan still nodded and agreed.

After walking out of the tent, the two men each rode a horse and galloped out of the military camp. No one spoke first along the way, and they stopped only when they arrived at the bank of the Gu River.

"General Jin, when the late King Ying Chu talked to me about the Jiufang Heavenly Palace and the immortals, I thought he had lost his mind. But now it seems that I was the stupid one. Haha, it's really ironic."

Beside the river bank.

The two walked side by side, and the river breeze blowing on their faces was already a little chilly.

As usual, Lu Buwei stroked his beard with one hand and played with two stones he picked up from the ground with the other.

It's just that at this moment, he looked a little lonely, but Jin Chan could guess the reason for this loneliness.

Lu Buwei, who has always been proud and conceited, lost all his pride today after learning that there really are immortals in the world and that humans are just ants and livestock in the eyes of the immortals.

"General Jin, could you please tell me about the Jiufang Heavenly Palace and the immortals?"

Because Ying Chu did not tell Lu Buwei too much back then, Lu Buwei only knew about the existence of Jiufang Heavenly Palace and immortals.

As for what happened in the Middle Wilderness era, I know nothing about it.

"it is good!"

Jin Chan smiled slightly when he heard this.

He then told him everything he knew.

However, some things about himself were only mentioned briefly and not mentioned again.

"Prime Minister, when you were discussing the world with the king, you said that you would control the resources, divide the people into four classes: farmers, workers, soldiers, and nobles, and then cut off their knowledge, lock their thinking, and train them to be animals that can only work but not think. The immortals did this more thoroughly than you did, and their methods were better, but they failed. Do you think you will succeed again?"

Jin Chan suddenly stopped, turned to face Lu Buwei, and asked slowly.

huh~~
"No."

This time, Lu Buwei did not pause. After letting out a long sigh, he directly rejected the governing philosophy he had believed in for decades.

"Humanity has never developed intelligence, and now there are hundreds of schools of thought and seven kingdoms competing for supremacy. There have been too many changes in between that are unpredictable and uncontrollable. Even if we lock up their minds and make the people become livestock that cannot speak, see or hear, even if we can lock up most of the people, there will always be people who will break through the shackles and break this confinement, just like those two people, changing everything and overthrowing the rule."

Lu Buwei looked up at the sky, thought for a moment and said.

And the two people he was talking about.

One is a man named "Huang" who discovered the country's destiny and military spirit, led mankind to turn the tools in their hands into weapons, pointed them at the Jiufang Heavenly Palace, and was then thrown into the scorpion pot.

The other is the first emperor Lin Yao.
