The Great Way to Truth, Starting from Jiazi Laodao

Chapter 221: Another Way of Enlightenment, the New Emperor Ascends the Throne

As soon as these words were spoken, heaven and earth fell silent.

On the stage of order, Zhao De, who had been pampered for thousands of years, was so angry that he fell backwards. No one had dared to point at him and scold him like this for many years.

The laws on the gavel converge into a cage.

"Draw the ground as a prison!"

This whole world is imprisoned.

Inspiration, plants, laws, and the Tao!
They are all put in shackles.

Even the octagonal golden pagoda is no exception.

The old man groaned, feeling at a disadvantage.

At the critical moment, a nine-section staff descended.

Nine colors shine brightly, breaking the cage.

When the nine-section staff disappeared, the golden pagoda, the man and the dragon all disappeared.

Now that there is no target, take back the gavel.

All that remains are chaotic ideas and broken mountains and rivers.

The young man on the stage of order said in a deep voice, fearfully:

"Peace!"

I didn't expect that he would come out.

Things are in trouble.

As for the old man from the Qiu royal family, he didn't take him seriously at all. He was just a powerful man with a crooked mouth.

A small secret world, the Taiping Taoist Palace.

The Taoist master of Taiping, wearing yellow clothes and a yellow hairpin, cast his gaze upon the golden octagonal pagoda, which shook slightly and transformed into an old man wearing a robe wearing a five-clawed dragon.

He has white hair and a gray face, and a slightly hunched back.

Because of the injury, he was a little depressed.

He cupped his hands in thanks.

The man and the dragon behind him immediately followed suit.

"Thank you for the rescue, Master."

Nodding slightly, the Taoist Master Taiping glanced at the old man and understood his situation clearly, but did not ask whether it was worth it or not.

Since the choice has been made, we must go forward without hesitation and have no regrets. He stated the facts:
"Although you gave up your physical body and combined your spirit with the weapon, transforming yourself into a weapon spirit, and borrowing the power of the Linglong Tower, an acquired spiritual treasure, to achieve enlightenment in a different way and become one of the great powers of heaven and earth, it is still a tricky method after all. You are ranked last among the great powers of heaven and earth. You must be careful in your actions in the future."

The old man nodded in agreement.

Facing the Master of Taiping Dao, he did not show the slightest arrogance.

What you say is what it is.

Besides, after the fight just now, he had learned his lesson.

Understand the gap between yourself and true power.

A wandering heart finally settled down.

Seeing that the old man's aura had calmed down again and his restlessness had been eliminated, the Taoist Master Taiping was satisfied and continued:
"Using a secret technique, taking advantage of the past grudges between Taixuan Taizu and Canglong, he took advantage of the emperor's twilight years when his dragon energy was waning and his invulnerable body was vulnerable. He injected Canglong's past grudge into the Great Xuan Dragon Vein, thereby affecting his judgment and causing him to make foolish moves and destroy the city wall.

This is certainly useful, but the cost is too high, it is also against the harmony of nature, and it leaves hidden dangers. If you hurt the enemy, you will lose 800 of your own.

This time you openly stole the dragon's energy, but in fact it was to cover up the strange smell that permeated when the dragon fell, so as to avoid being noticed by Zhao De, so you took the risk.

But you underestimate the means and insight of a powerful being. Could it be that I have covered for you, secretly cleared the beginning and the end, and concealed the truth from the world? I am afraid that Zhao De has already noticed the clues."

Everyone hurried to thank him.

The Taoist Taiping waved his hand carelessly and warned, "I am wasting my words not to seek credit, but to remind you to be careful in the future. Do not treat the powerful as fools who can be fooled by you, and do not pretend to obey me and do things on your own. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

"Master, please calm down. We will remember your teachings."

The old man and the young man in brocade robe turned pale and immediately pleaded guilty. The Taoist Master Taiping was the biggest supporter of the Qiu royal family.

On the cloud bed, the Taoist Master Taiping was too lazy to look at them and said impatiently: "Part of the Canglong's dragon veins have been integrated into Fengguo. This time, taking advantage of the chaos in all directions and the three major divine dynasties being unable to take care of other things, Fengguo sent out a large-scale army and swallowed up the two countries one after another. It has become a first-class dynasty, second only to the three major divine dynasties in strength.

The world will not be stable in the future. You should go to Feng Country to gain experience, seize the opportunity, expand the territory, and don't be arrogant and underestimate the people of the world. "

As he spoke, he looked deeply at the young man in brocade robes and reminded him: "To be a king or an emperor, you must be open-minded and make honest plans. Anyone can plot and play tricks, but you can't.

That’s all I have to say, so you can do it yourself. "

The old man and the young man in brocade robe trembled slightly, bowed, and turned to leave.

After they left, the Taiping Dao Master sighed.

The Taiping Cult sought to obtain the Blue Dragon Bone in order to enhance the fortune of Feng State, but unexpectedly, the Qiu royal family had other plans.

After a long while, he sighed slightly:

"After all, it's different."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have to waste his breath.

Look far ahead.

Fall on the Huangtian Temple.

The Taoist Master Taiping was somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, he had a backup plan for the Taiping Sect.

---

A border town in the northern part of Daxuan.

Xuanming was unaware of the struggle between the powerful; he also did not know the truth about the old emperor's stupidity.

After strolling around the border town for half a circle and experiencing the unique customs and culture, he couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the people, so he didn't finish the remaining half circle and returned to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion to continue training the three little ones.

Li Zizai swung the sword while carrying a heavy load.

The spirit deer lives a long life and runs with heavy loads.

The black swallow flies with a heavy load.

Xuanming lay in a rocking chair, warming up a pot of osmanthus wine, which was unique to this season, and reading the Sutra while drinking.

Occasionally, he would use his rudimentary finger-snapping magic to give each of the three lazy little ones a slap on the face.

The days were leisurely, comfortable and relaxed. Of course, Xuanming did not forget to practice even when he was free.

Today, spiritual practice has become an instinct, integrated into daily life, into every word and action.

When he left Fuyun Mountain and traveled down the mountain, his body, heart and soul were all burning with fire:

Samadhi is really hot!

This fire burns the flesh and tempers the body.

This fire burns within and clarifies the mind of Tao.

This fire burns the soul and removes the evil spirits.

After the war, the fire became even more intense.

Inside the entrance hall, the primordial spirit continuously emits black air all day long. That is the yin dregs. Once it is completely shed, that will be the day when Xuanming advances to pure yang.

Of course, the Samadhi True Fire alone cannot completely eliminate the evil spirits. He also needs to practice hard day and night and have the assistance of thunder.

Xuanming already had an idea in mind about this.

The Marquis of Zhenbei happened to pass by and looked at the leisurely Master Xuanming with envy, then turned and left.

He will continue to investigate.

Get to the bottom of the matter.

Give an explanation to the family and the soldiers on the border.

He accepts it regardless of the outcome, good or bad.

Only when this is over can you truly relax and have the time to enjoy yourself.

Glancing at the old figure of Zhenbei Hou, Xuanming sighed, what's so good about being an official in the court, it's all hard work and tiring.

It’s more comfortable to be a Taoist priest in the mountains.

Thinking of this, Xuanming poured himself a cup of osmanthus wine. The wine went down his throat and spread to every part of his body. The warmth and the fragrance of osmanthus filled the air, bringing a comfortable enjoyment that made people unable to resist wanting more.

Gudong!

Li Zizai swallowed his saliva.

Two more gurgling sounds were heard.

They are the spiritual deer Changshou and the black swallow.

They were all greedy and wanted to try it.

The result is...

"Ouch!"

Three cries of pain.

The three little ones practiced hard again.

They all swore secretly in their hearts:

"When we have disciples (descendants) in the future, they will definitely enjoy it too."

The next day, dawn broke.

Xuanming opened his mouth and swallowed a huge purple sun.

He had already set up restrictions in advance to prevent this scene from being seen by the people.

After collecting the purple energy of the morning sun and having breakfast, Xuanming watched the three little ones practice, not letting them slack off, while looking towards the southwest sky, waiting silently, ready to go.

Near noon, Yang energy is at its strongest.

The new emperor of Daxuan usually ascends the throne at this time after the old emperor's death, takes over the sacred artifact, and holds power.

Precise time control.

It must not be past 3:15 p.m.

At that time, the Yang energy turned from strong to weak, and the Yin energy began to rise, which was unfavorable and turned from good to bad.

as predicted!

When the time came, the southwest sky was colorful, with dragon energy rising, vitality and momentum like a rainbow.

There are colorful clouds and rays of bright sunshine.

The gods bless you and the mountains and rivers pay tribute to you.

A scroll in the sky slowly unfolded.

From east to west, connecting north and south.

There are continuous mountains, crisscrossing rivers, vast plains and lonely deserts.

This is a projection of the territory of the Great Xuan Divine Dynasty.

Inscribed on the Daxuan Sheji Ding.

Xuanming pinched his fingers and released the dragon bone and the Huangji Huangjiao immortal in the center from the Taiji sky. The man and the god moved at the same time.

They were quick-eyed and quick-handed, pulling in two strands of dragon energy before the dragon shape was fully formed.

Before that frightening feeling came, he immediately put away the Dragon Bone and the Yellow Horned Immortal, and even drew out a trace of Huangting Qi from Taiji Heaven, covering himself to hide the abnormality.

The next moment, that feeling came.

Xuanming pretended to be unaware and slumped in the recliner, looking towards the southwest like the other practicing gods.

The Great Mysterious Capital, the Platform of Order.

The light of the treasure mirror above his head dimmed, and Zhao De was shocked and confused.

There were indeed two strands of dragon energy missing.

Although it is harmless, this trend must not be allowed to continue.

But he couldn't find the thief.

Could it be related to the Taiping Sect and the remnants of Dasheng? Or are there other old guys plotting against Daxuan?

Is it the demon lord from outside the domain?
Or that Mo Shou?

Looking across the North, they are the only ones capable of concealing their presence from my detection.

Or is it some old guy who wants to deflect blame and shift the blame?
