My understanding defies heaven: I create laws and preach in the heavens

The strength of a practitioner mainly depends on the power of his mind.

The stronger the power of the mind, the stronger the secret method of enlightenment that can be used.

The more power of heaven and earth is leveraged.

As for the physical body? That is something that martial artists study.

In this world, even the most powerful body is still a mortal.

It can't stop poison, it can't stop sharp blades.

More than a dozen soldiers in heavy armor surrounded him.

It was chopped into meat paste directly.

Therefore, when practitioners fight each other, they often feel the strength of the other party's mind and will beforehand.

And then determine whether to fight or flee.

The man in the golden robe next to him couldn't feel the fluctuations of Lin Yuan's mental power.

That's why they look down on it and don't take it seriously at all.

But the man in the golden robe standing in the middle was thinking more.

If Lin Yuan is really just an ordinary person.

Why do you dare to interfere in the affairs of those who have entered the Tao?

Regardless of the four of them who have entered the Tao.

Whether it’s the hunchbacked old man not far away, they are all practitioners of Taoism.

The latter is just an ordinary initiate.

But this attracted the four Taoist masters who came to chase and kill him.

It is also a proof of strength.

and so.

The man in the golden robe standing in the middle realized that something was wrong.

Subconsciously, he used the secret method of Taoism to investigate.

In this world, practicing the secret method of entering the Tao will consume the power of the mind.

Unless necessary, no practitioner would activate the secret method of enlightenment at will.

"Such a restrained spiritual power." The man in the golden robe standing in the middle was shocked.

He secretly urged the Golden Dragon Sect to explore the secret method, and vaguely felt that Lin Yuan was not without the fluctuation of mental power.

Instead, all the mental power is concentrated within the body.

It seems like an endless ocean.

On the surface, it seemed extremely calm and uneventful.

But there is an undercurrent inside.

"Senior brother?"

The man in the golden robe at the side looked puzzled, but still stopped and looked at the man in the golden robe standing in the middle.

"You are the power behind him?"

The man in the golden robe in the middle looked at Lin Yuan and said in a deep voice.

"Ah."

Lin Yuan nodded.

"In that case, it is my Golden Dragon Sect that has been offended this time."

"You guys leave."

The golden-robed man standing in the middle thought for a while and then spoke.

He was not sure he could defeat Lin Yuan, as the other party gave him too terrifying a feeling.

In addition, the Golden Dragon Sect is about to undergo a major change, so the man in the golden robe in the middle does not intend to force him to stay.

The reason why he was so aggressive towards the hunchbacked old man, Uncle San, was because he felt he had the upper hand over him.

When the men in golden robes nearby heard their senior brother's decision, although they didn't know the specific reason, they knew what his senior brother should have discovered.

The man in the golden robe who had originally walked out even retreated back.

"leave?"

Lin Yuan looked at the four men in golden robes.

He came here in person this time not just to save his third uncle.

Instead, he has ideas about the entire Golden Dragon Sect and the vast Barbarian State.

The Taoist priest of the Golden Dragon Sect is about to pass away, so it is time to take action against him and control him secretly.

There are no hidden dangers.

This is also the result of Lin Yuan observing multiple future timelines.

And Manzhou.

Excellent geographical location.

Originally, Lin Yuan only planned to establish a trade route.

Then, through decades of slow influence, it eventually takes possession of the property.

I didn't expect that there would be a shortcut this time.

If we can take over Manzhou in advance.

This will be of great benefit to Lin Yuan’s next plan.

"I'm not leaving."

Lin Yuan said.

"Not planning on leaving?"

The several men in golden robes standing nearby looked unhappy.

Senior brother has already given so much face, but the other party is still so ungrateful?

Not ready to leave yet?

"Since you are not going to leave, then..."

"let's go."

The man in the golden robe standing in the middle felt more and more that something was wrong.

After reviewing the situation at this moment, he suddenly realized that he had no idea when Lin Yuan appeared.

Those who have entered the Tao have strong spiritual power and are very sensitive to changes in the surrounding environment.

But it is impossible to be sure when Lin Yuan will appear.

"Walk."

The man in the golden robe in the middle said this and turned and left.

Seeing this, the other three men in golden robes looked at each other and did not continue to care about Lin Yuan’s arrogant words.

Instead, he followed closely behind his senior brother.

They know their senior brother very well.

Although he looks indifferent, he has an extremely strong personality.

There must be something wrong with this kind of reaction now.

"Young Master." The hunchbacked old man, Uncle San, looked at Lin Yuan.

I felt slightly relieved.

The Golden Dragon Sect is the heaven of Manzhou.

Apart from the official Dafeng Dynasty, the Golden Dragon Sect is the strongest.

Even the Dafeng Dynasty was unwilling to fight to the death with the Golden Dragon Sect in Manzhou.

Now the four men in golden robes took the initiative to retreat.

Obviously the best outcome.

"You can't leave either."

Lin Yuan looked calm.

In an instant, wisps of spiritual power emerged from the surrounding void.

They kept interweaving and colliding, spreading rapidly in all directions.

hum~

With Lin Yuan as the center, spiritual power was flowing within a hundred feet around him. The four men in golden robes within a hundred feet were like trapped in a spider web, unable to move.

The golden-robed man in the lead had a changed expression, and his heart was trembling. He looked around in disbelief, "Heaven and Earth Prison? Such a large-scale Heaven and Earth Prison?"

The other three golden-robed men also felt weak in the knees and were filled with fear. "A Taoist priest?"

Those who have entered the Tao communicate with heaven and earth through the power of their minds, but the spiritual power of ordinary people is weak and cannot be manifested externally.

Only when one reaches the level of a Taoist mage can one barely display one's spiritual power, but the range is limited to a few feet around the body.

As for the Taoist priest, his mental power is so strong that he can form a cage with pure mental power to suppress the enemy.

That is the cage of heaven and earth.

Using pure spiritual power to form a cage is a method that only a Taoist priest can use.

"That young man, is he a Taoist priest?"

Several men in golden robes looked terrified.

How many Taoist priests are there in the whole world?

Apart from the Heavenly Masters trained by the Dafeng Dynasty, the other ninety-eight states, the powerful states would have one or two, or two or three Heavenly Masters.

More than half of the states do not have a Taoist priest.

On average, among the ninety-nine states in the world, excluding the Central State, the number of Heavenly Masters in the other eighty-eight states combined is only about forty to fifty.

Forty or fifty Taoist priests? Even though the number is large, it is the accumulation of the entire world.

There are ninety-eight states, and the population of each state exceeds one billion. On average, one Heavenly Master needs to be born from two billion people.

In addition, since Taoist priests can generally live over 120 years old, and ordinary people can basically be considered to have a good death in their 50s or 60s, the probability of a true Taoist priest being born is probably even smaller.

A Taoist priest can, if he wishes, dominate several states and rule the country. As long as he does not go against the imperial court, the imperial court will be happy to appease him.

"A cage of heaven and earth with a range of one hundred feet." Compared to the fear of several men in golden robes, the leading senior brother was even more frightened.

He had a very high status in the Golden Dragon Sect and followed the Heavenly Master in the sect. He knew that even if someone was as strong as the Heavenly Master, after casting the Heaven and Earth Prison, the area around his body would only be twenty to thirty feet at most.

The spiritual power of a Taoist master is not infinite.

But now the cage of heaven and earth formed by Lin Yuan is more than a hundred feet?

What a tremendous spiritual strength is needed to support this.

How is it possible that such a powerful Taoist priest has never been heard of before?

After dealing with the four Golden Dragon Sect disciples, Lin Yuan glanced at his uncle and said, "Uncle, you go back first. I'll take care of Manzhou."

"well."

Uncle San responded quickly.

This was the first time in twenty years that he saw his young master actually take action.

Although it has been known for a long time that the young master is very strong, but how can he become a Taoist priest?

Even during the Red Lotus Sect's heyday, there were only a few disciples in charge.

As for the Taoist priest?

I can't even think about it.

If the Red Lotus Sect had had a Taoist priest in charge.

They would not have to wander around the surrounding states. Although the Red Lotus Cult established several branches.

But those branches are basically just rats crossing the street.

There is no light at all.

If there is a Taoist priest.

The Red Lotus Sect could easily occupy an entire state and develop slowly.

The back mountain of the Golden Dragon Sect.

The Taoist master 'Jin Yi' sat cross-legged.

His body was weakened, and although his spiritual power was strong, it came from his body.

Once the physical body ages and dies, even the strongest spiritual power will quickly dissipate.

"The Golden Dragon Sect has not yet produced a new Heavenly Master."

Jin Yi opened his eyes, a look of worry appearing on his face.

The Jinlong Sect is entrenched in Manzhou and has great potential influence, and it also has a good relationship with the Dafeng Dynasty.

Even if there is no Taoist priest in charge for a short period of time, there won’t be any big problems.

There are ninety-eight states in the world, and not every state has a Taoist priest in charge.

But it is still a hidden danger.

We have lost the pillar of support like the Taoist Priest.

The confidence is definitely not strong enough.

"I hope that before I pass away, I can train a new Heavenly Master."

"Even if there isn't one, at least there has to be a potential Heavenly Master."

Jin Yi thought silently in his heart.

Decades ago, the Golden Dragon Sect began to concentrate its resources on training a certain disciple.

But becoming a Taoist priest cannot be cultivated simply by relying on resources.

at this time--

Jin Yi's expression changed, "Who is it?"

"it's me."

Before Jin Yi could react.

A young man stood nearby and looked over, smiling.

"You are."

Jin Yi's pupils shrank sharply, and then he felt his mental power being suppressed and blocked.

The young man walked up to him easily and looked down at him.

"Which Heavenly Master are you?"

Jin Yi looked desperate.

From the brief contact just now.

Jin Yi confirmed one thing.

That is, he would never be a match for the young man.

The other party appeared silently not far from him.

And without any warning, he sealed off his mental power.

No matter which point, it shows that the other party wants to kill him.

It's not that difficult.

Although Jin Yi is about to pass away.

The body decays and decays.

But the fighting between the Taoist priests.

It's not the physical body that matters.

But the power of the mind.

In this regard, Jin Yi, the Taoist master, was completely defeated.

"You don't need to know who I am."

Lin Yuan looked down at Jin Yi with a smile, "Now you have two choices."

"Two choices?"

Jin Yi's heart trembled.

"First, give up resistance, let me search your soul, and then cooperate with me to take over the Golden Dragon Sect."

"I will ensure that your Golden Dragon Sect's inheritance will not be destroyed."

Lin Yuan said.

After twenty years of practice.

Lin Yuan’s current strength surpasses that of ordinary Taoist priests.

A veteran Taoist priest like Jin Yi had no power to resist him at all.

But in essence, Lin Yuan is also a Taoist priest.

At the same level as Jin Yi.

At most, his use of mental power far exceeds that of his opponent.

But if you want to search the soul? If you want to completely receive all the memories of the other party.

Cooperation is still needed.

At least you can't resist violently.

"Searching for souls?"

The corner of Jin Yi's mouth twitched.

The Taoist priest studies the power of the mind.

It is possible to search the soul.

But searching the soul of a Taoist priest?

A Taoist priest would never want to have his soul searched.

In that way, all the hidden secrets will be revealed to the enemy in every detail.

"What about the second option?"

Jin Yi's voice was hoarse.

"I forcibly searched the soul, and the Golden Dragon Sect was completely destroyed, and the inheritance was completely cut off."

Lin Yuan said directly.

Forced soul searching will result in memory loss and other consequences.

"Two choices."

"Pick one."

Lin Yuan looked down at Jin Yi.

"I"

Jin Yi fell silent.

He had no doubt about the second possibility that Lin Yuan mentioned.

With the strength that Lin Yuan has shown now.

It couldn't be easier to destroy the Golden Dragon Sect.

"I choose the first one."

Jin Yi sighed inwardly.

Although I don’t know whether Lin Yuan will keep his promise.

But he has no other choice now.

Anyway, I will definitely die.

Even if your soul is searched, the most you can do is die in pain.

"In this way, the Golden Dragon Sect can be passed down."

Lin Yuan nodded.

In fact, he had already viewed the future timeline.

It is clear what Jin Yi's final decision was.

"Golden Dragon Sect?"

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

Completely accept Jin Yi's memory, and with the cooperation of this Taoist master.

He will be able to receive the influence of all forces of the Golden Dragon Sect most safely.

As for forcibly cleaning up and then replacing their own people?

That is the worst approach.

First, it is easy to reveal flaws.

The second is too wasteful.

There are more than tens of thousands of disciples in the Golden Dragon Sect, and more than two thousand of them have entered the Tao.

Such a group of high-quality subordinates, are they all going to be purged out?

Dafeng Dynasty, capital, inside the imperial palace.

The young emperor sat on the throne, frowning in thought.

"In the past twenty years, I have successfully become a Taoist priest."

The young emperor whispered to himself, "The greatest power of this dynasty is also in my hands."

"There are more than 10,000 Taoist magicians in this capital, more than a hundred Taoist celestial masters, and hundreds of thousands of the most elite imperial guards."

"With such a huge force, I can completely sweep across the ninety-eight states in the outside world once again if I want to."

“In addition, this palace is made entirely of a special material that can restrain the power of the mind. Even if you are a Taoist priest, if you are trapped in the palace, you will be greatly suppressed and your strength will be reduced to one hundredth of what it was.”

"So the most elite imperial guards are patrolling the palace. If someone as strong as a Taoist priest dares to sneak into the palace, dozens of imperial guards will be enough to strangle him. And there are as many as 100,000 imperial guards in the palace."

The young emperor became more and more serious as he thought about it: "Under this circumstance, the requirement of this calamity is only to let me live for 150 years?"

"No, it should be one hundred and thirty years now."

"Just to keep me alive?"

The young emperor did not show any contempt. Since this was the requirement, it meant that the disaster he faced was definitely not something that could be easily resisted by the power he currently possessed.

If you do nothing, you can easily get through this disaster.

Then it is not worthy of being considered the last disaster he has to face.

"That's all."

The young emperor looked towards where he was, which was arguably the safest place in the world - the imperial palace.

I have already made up my mind.

"I can't stay in the palace any longer."
