[Prehistoric] The dead flower demon
Chapter 88 Chapter 88
The battle between Song and Jin was in full swing. With the help of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", Yue Fei led the Northern Expedition. The Vietnam War became more and more fierce. He successively recovered Zhengzhou, Luoyang and other places, defeated the Jin army in Yancheng and Yingchang, and marched into Zhuxian Town.
"Big Buddha, what should we do! Now that Yue Fei is approaching the city, we have no chance of winning."
"Don't worry, I have my own concerns about this matter!" Vipashen Buddha smiled inscrutablely, and he didn't care about Jin Guo, who is now defeated like a chicken and a dog.
Outside Zhuxian Town, Yue Fei's army is ready to go. The 10,000+ army is full of fighting spirit. They are expecting, waiting, killing all these golden soldiers, driving them out of the Central Plains completely, and avenging their dead brothers and relatives.
Li Huo reached out his hand and smoothed Dapeng's frowning brow lines, "Dapeng, after tonight, we will return to the fairy world, why are you still frowning?"
"This matter has changed, we are afraid that we will disappoint the brothers outside!" Dapeng sighed, and passed the imperial decree and the received message to Lihuo.
After reading the two reports suspiciously, Li Huo was furious, "What the hell is the emperor of the Song Dynasty doing? He is asking for peace now? Obviously we are going to drive the Jin soldiers out of the pass. Now he is asking for peace. What kind of peace is he asking for?"
As a time traveler, Li Huo naturally admired Yue Fei, a famous general through the ages, and now this general is not only the person he admires, but also his Taoist companion. As long as he thinks about Yue Fei's ending in the end, he wants to change more than once. However, when this period of history really came, he still couldn't suppress his sadness. He couldn't change it, and he had no reason to stop Dapeng's plan...
The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, and the population is lost!When the Song Dynasty was completely defeated by the Kingdom of Jin, it was too late to talk about regrets.
After Yue Fei's tragic death in the Fengbo Pavilion, Li Huo went to Yingzhou to look for Si Nian angrily. I don't know what they said.
Si Nian has nothing to do about it, immeasurable catastrophe is right in front of him, and even the entire earth fairy world is in panic, who can have time to pay attention to the situation in the human world.
The disciples in Yingzhou Island have recently been cultivating in closed caves, not only them, but also in the world of immortals, except for casual cultivators, all saints' sects are like this.
And they never imagined that the so-called immeasurable calamity would start with Zhunti's death...
On this day, Kong Xuan and Si Nianzheng were working together to deduce the Dao, looking for a glimmer of life, and saw that the Earth Immortal World, which had always been clear and clear, was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and blood rained all over the sky like red lotus petals.
Everyone was startled. Driven by a miracle, they looked towards the west one after another, and saw Zhunti's golden body of Bodhi looming in the air. Suddenly, the Sanskrit sound rang out and spread throughout the three worlds. Zhunti smiled, "May my Buddhism be prosperous forever!" prosper!"
The Seven Wonderful Treasure Tree seemed to have sensed the death of its owner, and its brilliance suddenly flourished, turning into a little bit of starlight and falling on the land in the west.
"Zhunti" showed a dejected look on his perennially miserable face, looking at Zhunti's face in the air, tears streaming down his face.
The two brothers have been together since their incarnation, and they have never been separated, but now Zhunti actually abandoned himself, just for the west to have some room for maneuver in the immeasurable calamity!
Until Zhunti's Bodhi golden body gradually disappeared, everyone still couldn't come back to their senses. Saints live forever, so why did Zhunti die like this?Died so suddenly?
You must know that the sage entrusts his primordial spirit to the way of heaven with the help of the primordial spirit. As long as the way of heaven is indestructible, the saint is an immortal existence, but the sadness in his heart cannot deceive people, nor can the rain of blood from the way of heaven Man, Zhunti is indeed dead.
"I didn't expect Zhunti to have such awareness!" Si Nian looked away and sighed | "I have dealt with Zhunti for so many years, and I really can't imagine that one day he will die in this way."
"Zhunti Taoist friend Gao De!" Kong Xuan gave a deep salute to the West. He has a deeper morality than Si Nian, and he understands Zhunti's approach better. However, it is precisely because he understands that he sighs in his heart. It became his obsession, but he never expected that now, for the sake of the West to leave behind a kindling, he would be willing to abandon himself and use his cultivation as a saint to suppress luck for the West."
Sanqing and Nuwa also looked sad. Although they and Zhunti were dirty and looked down on his usual behavior, but at this time, they couldn't do what Zhunti did, abandoning themselves to continue their own foundation.
"Zhunti!" Luo Hu's face was distorted, and he looked angrily at the demonic energy purified by the boundless Buddha's light.
These demonic qi were the grievances he ordered Vipashen Buddha to collect on the Song and Jin battlefields, and it took countless efforts to condense them, but now, they were completely purified by Zhunti.
"Just for these disciples? Are they worth it?" Luo Hu shouted towards the void
However, he couldn't answer him whether it was worth mentioning or not, so he guided the Buddhist disciples who glanced at him with a dazed expression, uttered the Buddha's name, and swept them out of the west.
"Rahu! I didn't expect you to be hiding in my west!" Losing Zhunti, Jieyin's miserable face was so bitter that water dripped down his face. Hit towards Rahu.
"Go away!" Zhunti disrupted his plan, and he was worried that he would not find a chance to find someone to settle the score.I didn't expect the guide to come to your door!
"Wuliang Tianzun! Sweep away the evil spirits, how can I miss Sanqing!" As soon as Lao Tzu's voice fell, Sanqing had already come to the west
"Luohu, you have done many injustices, and now you are forcing a saint to death, and the sky will not tolerate you!" Yuan Yuan threw out the three precious jade Ruyi in his hand, held the Pangu banner, and brushed down the chaotic sword energy.
"I'll come to meet you for a while too!" Tong Tian laughed out loud, and the four swords of Jade Immortal in his hand actually merged into one. "Jie Yin, don't worry, we will avenge you."
"It's so lively, how can I miss my little sister!" Nuwa threw down the red hydrangea ball, protected herself with the map of mountains and rivers, and also reached the battlefield.
"Zunti Daoyou Dade, avenge him, how can we miss Yingzhou Island!" Kong Xuan took Si Nian, appeared in the sky, and pointed his gun at Luo Hu, "You know this thing!"
How could Luo Hu not recognize the black flame floating from the tip of the sword? It was his own devilish energy mixed with Kong Xuan's unique five-color magical power.
It turned out that Kong Xuan fused the innate five-element bead bestowed by Hongjun that day to form the innate five-element body unique in this world, and through this five-element body, he could freely control it without fear of evil energy.
And this innate five-element Taoist body, apart from Kong Xuan, there is only Luo Hu in the world except Hongjun.
"Good good good good good good good good! You all come well!" Luo Hu patted the twelfth-rank World-Exterminating Black Lotus, and a monstrous demonic flame floated behind him, and he raised his head to the sky and let out a long cry, "Good come, good come! Old man Hongjun, just look at it!" , How did I kill all your disciples and grandchildren?"
Following Rahu's long howl, the entire Earth Immortal Realm suddenly began to shake violently. Countless cave houses were burned under the violent shaking, and the sea water of the whole world began to pour back, and those immortals who hadn't had time to evacuate even screamed before they melted. Made fly ash.
Hanmei Baishi and the others quickly activated the formation to protect the island, but they still couldn't stop the rupture of Yingzhou Island, so they had to drag the remaining disciples to heaven and earth, watching the sudden great changes in the world.
"What's going on here?" Han Mei glanced around, and found that not only them, but even Jin'ao Island had undergone tremendous changes. Yun Xiao and the others were also flying in the air, their faces dazed.
"Brother, what should we do now?" Han Mei looked at Bai Shi worriedly
Baishi thought for a moment, then took out his magic weapon and yelled, "Disciples of Yingzhou listened to the orders, the sky has changed dramatically, I am afraid that it is not the East China Sea that suffers, I will contact the disciples of the three religions to go to Buzhou Mountain first, there is the pillar of heaven and earth, it should be able to last for a while .”
Following the sending of messages, Baishi brought the disciples of Yingzhou and Jiejiao together, and started heading towards Mount Buzhou.
Not around the mountain
Yun Zhongzi looked at the invulnerable monster in front of him, and his face was a little ugly. "Brother, what are these things? Why have I never heard of them before?"
"I don't know either! Be careful, these monsters are a bit difficult!" Guang Chengzi also looked distressed. His Fantian Seal was refined from a broken mountain pillar in Buzhou Mountain. Now it is smashed down, It's like tickling those monsters.
Daoist Taiyi pulled Nezha back and pointed to the distance, "Look, those monsters are still emerging from the ground."
"The sky and the earth have changed dramatically, I am afraid this is the real immeasurable calamity!" The figure of the Three Emperors and Zhen Yuanzi appeared in the void.
Under the influence of the red cloud, Zhen Yuanzi has a compassionate heart. Looking at the immortals who are constantly dying under the attacks of these monsters, he sighs and finally takes out the book of the earth and turns it into the earth's fetal membrane, hoping to repair the cracks in the earth.
Fuxi pointed to the sky with one hand and pointed to the ground with the other, and Hetu Luoshu turned into a gigantic gossip, protecting the disciples of Chanjiao in it, "The sage is dealing with Rahu in the west now, and now these monsters emerging from the ground may only be dealt with by ourselves .”
"But what are these things? We have tried countless methods, but we can't do anything about them." Guang Chengzi's expression turned ugly.Chao Fuxi asked
Fuxi was controlling Hetu Luoshu at this time, so Shennong could only answer, "These monsters were born from the seven emotions and six desires of immortals and human beings after the creation of heaven, and they were nourished by the evil energy of the calamity before they finally took shape. I am afraid that to deal with them, we can only Borrowing the power of merit!"
"The power of merit?" Taiyi pondered for a while, and then he put the merit he gained from suppressing the underworld into the Nine Dragons Divine Flame Cover, and then threw it at a nearby monster, and saw that the monster that was originally invulnerable to water and fire was transformed by the power of merit. Under the effect, the body began to make a "sizzling" sound slowly, and slowly turned into nothingness.
"It really works!" Everyone was delighted.Follow the same pattern, and soon, all the monsters near Buzhou Mountain were wiped out.
"Zhen Yuanzi!" Just when everyone was happy, Xuanyuan yelled and supported Zhen Yuanzi who looked weak
The dramatic movement from the earth turned out to be faster, and the cracks in the earth that were originally protected by the earth book began to burst again, and a large number of monsters poured into the earth fairy world like locusts.
"Brother, be careful!" Guang Chengzi, who was directing Fan Tianyin, heard Yun Zhongzi's shout, turned his head and saw a monster flying towards him at some point.
"It's too late!" Guang Chengzi looked at the monster close at hand, and closed his eyes in despair.
However, the expected pain did not hit, a gust of warm blood swept across Guang Chengzi's face, Guang Chengzi opened his eyes, and only had time to see Yun Zhongzi's painful eyes, and he saw that he was transformed into a monster under the attack of the monster. Bits of starlight dissipated.
"Yun Zhongzi!" "Junior Brother!"
Tears couldn't help but fall down, but it was too late for Chanjiao to wipe them away, and monsters kept pouring out of the cracks. They seemed to have no wisdom, but they had the same goal, which was the Tianzhu of Buzhou Mountain.
Taiyi was shocked when he got this conjecture, he threw the Jade Cauldron, and shouted, "Go and see the Tianzhu, their goal is the Tianzhu."
"Tianzhu?" Daoist Yuding's heart was throbbing, and he ran towards Tianzhu without looking back.
Buzhou mountain side
Han Mei condensed her merits on the tip of the Wind Soul Needle, and kept shooting these monsters. Seeing that these monsters kept going behind her, she hurriedly shouted to Baishi, "Brother, their target seems to be the Tianzhu!"
Baishi naturally saw it, his brows were slightly frowned, and he was suddenly shocked. This Tianzhu was not the original Buzhou Mountain Pillar, but was refined by Nuwa from the limbs of the black turtle. It was not as strong as the original one. The monster is destroyed, and there is no support for the sky and the earth. I am afraid that it is only a matter of time before the sky and the earth close.
Knowing the key point, Baishi shouted to everyone, "Their purpose is to destroy the Tianzhu, and they must not be allowed to succeed. Everyone is divided into four groups to guard the Tianzhu, and they must not be allowed to destroy the Tianzhu."
Everyone naturally took orders, Baishi led a part of the Jujiao people to guard the east, Han Mei led Fujitora and others to guard the west, and Lu Ya led Bai Su and the rest of the people to go from the north.
"Brother, there are not enough people in the south!" Yun Xiao was worried, and took the initiative to ask Ying, "Let the junior sister take the sister and brother to the south."
"Sister, stay and help Senior Brother Baishi!" Bi Xiao's face was covered with blood, but her eyes were clear and firm, "Let me go south with Qiong Xiao's sister, Gong Ming, and we will not be destroyed by these monsters even if we die." Tianzhu."
"Little sister!" Yun Xiao looked sad, "There are only three of you in the south, and you were sent to death in the past. You can't be willful at this time. Your cultivation base is still weak, and your merits are not enough. How can you defeat these monsters?"
"My sister underestimated me!" Bi Xiao laughed loudly, and raised the golden scissors in her hand, "We have been under the care of my sister and teacher, and we have never had a chance to show it. Now is the time for me, Bi Xiao, to show my power , Sister, don’t worry.”
"Bi Xiao!"
"Sister, don't worry." Zhao Gongming's face flashed with sadness, and he took a deep look at Yunxiao, "With me, Zhao Gongming, I will definitely protect Bixiao and Qiongxiao, so let us go."
"You don't have to fight anymore." Lu Ya suddenly appeared in the east, and smiled at Bi Xiao, "I will accompany you to the south."
"Daoist Lu Ya, why are you here?" Bai Shi was startled when he saw Lu Ya, "Junior Sister Bai Su has not recovered from her serious injury, and no one of them is in charge. I'm afraid..."
"Don't worry, we went to the north and saw the disciples of Chanjiao. With Guangchengzi and Xuandu here, they should be able to take care of themselves."
"Yun Xiao thanked Taoist Lord here!" Yun Xiao saluted Lu Ya
"Why be polite?" Lu Ya waved his hands, laughed loudly, and pulled Yun Xiao and the others towards the south.
Western Buddha
Luo Hu was playing with the Four Swords of Zhuxian in his hands, and looked at Sanqing and others who were trapped in the formation, he laughed and said, "You disciples and grandchildren think that they can defend the Tianzhu, and they are asking for death. My magic army is endless. As long as I Undead, it will only be a matter of time before they destroy the Tianzhu."
The golden light of merit behind Nuwa was about to condense into substance, she shouted angrily, and the picture of mountains and rivers wrapped her and flew towards the boundless magic flame, which suddenly broke a big gap.
"Junior Sister Nuwa!" I burst into tears, looked at Nuwa who was burned by the raging fire, slapped himself on the top of the head, turned into Sanqing, and threw out the Tai Chi diagram, making his eyes red.
"Let's go out!" Tong Tian blinked back his tears, holding the Qingping Sword, and rushed towards Luo Hu together with Yuan Yuan.
"Is there any injury?" Kong Xuan glanced at the battlefield, looked at Si Nian with red eyes, and held his hand tightly, "This is not a long-term place. Nuwa has already sacrificed, so you can't do anything."
"I'm fine, don't worry." Si Nian patted his hand, protected himself, and nodded at him, "I'll take care of myself, you go and help Sanqing."
Watching Kong Xuan join the battlefield, Si Nian struggled to hold himself up, but couldn't help spitting out blood, but he saw the guide come over and gave him something, "This thing was given to me by my junior brother when he passed away." , He said that only you can do this."
Si Nian stared at the Gengjin essence in his hand for a moment, recalling the past over and over again, but still couldn't understand how Zhunti would give this thing to him, so he had to put it away first, and sat down to adjust his breath.
"Big brother" originally held the Pangu banner and shouted at Lao Tzu, the bun on his head was messed up, and the Taoist robe on his body was also in tatters
"Third brother" he glanced at Tong Tian who was lying on the ground, his eyes were a little deep, "Do you still remember why we were born? Now you can't bear your saint position?"
Tongtian understood the original plan, glanced at Lao Tzu, and threw the Qingping sword into the air, "Brothers for a lifetime, brothers for a lifetime. We have enjoyed the kneeling of all beings, and now it is time to do meritorious deeds for all beings."
Lao Tzu also nodded, and the red lotus on his head, representing the supernatant, rushed towards the original white lotus and the sky-reaching blue lotus. The three lotus flowers circled around leisurely for a few times, and slowly joined together to form a single flower. The huge Qinglian, and Sanqing's figure gradually became blurred.
At the place where they disappeared, the green lotus was shining brilliantly, illuminating the devastated land, and gradually turned into a muscular man holding an illusory ax in his hand. His stature was getting taller and taller. come higher.
"Pangu Phantom!" Blocking Kong Xuan's God-killing Spear, Luo Hu's face turned ugly, "What did Hongjun give you, and what did this world give you, is it worth your sacrifice?"
Pangu Xuying didn't answer his words, and Sanqing couldn't give him any answer, only to see him shouting, and the ax in his hand locked onto Luohu, as if he had used all his strength to chop down the axe.
Si Nian stared blankly at the dots of starlight that Pangu's phantom turned into, and Luo Hu's question kept popping up in his mind, what did this world give them?It is worth their self-sacrifice to save this devastated world.
He recalled his origin over and over again, and recalled everything he had done since he came to this world, including good, bad, selfishness, and compassion.
Zhunti is dead, Nuwa is also dead, and now Sanqing has turned into dust, so what about me?What about Kong Xuan?Will he also sacrifice for this world like them?
Where is the meaning of sacrifice?Si Nian's heart slowly fell silent. He found out the essence of Gengjin that belonged to Zhunti, and slowly condensed the essence of Jiamu that belonged to him. He suddenly seemed to understand something.
He raised his head to the sky and screamed, and a Taoist who was exactly like him appeared beside him, who was his real self.
"I see." Si Nian opened his eyes, and the Taoist saluted him before entering his body
The brilliance in his hands flourished, and his body slowly began to become illusory, turning into a mass of Jiamu Qingqi
"Brothers and sisters, help me, we enjoy the worship of mortals all the time, now it's time for us to give back to them, immortals are never superior, we need the contribution of this world, and now it's time for us to give back to this world It's time."
All of a sudden, Zhen Yuanzi, Li Huo, and the spirit of Renshui in Zixiao Palace flourished in the distance, turned into their own bodies, and headed in the direction of Si Nian! "Brothers and sisters! Here we come."
Wood gave birth to fire, fire gave birth to earth, earth gave birth to gold, metal gave birth to water, and water gave birth to wood. When the five innate essences slowly merged together, the colorful brilliance on Kong Xuan's body suddenly began to flourish, and then slowly merged together. Together.
"Si Nian!" Kong Xuan caressed his chest, a tear fell from his eyes, and his eyes slowly became firm
I saw that he slowly turned into a giant with colorful brilliance, and the tip of the god-killing spear in his hand also flashed with colorful light, and a shot pierced Luo Hu's injured body.
Afterwards, his figure gradually became normal size, and he patted his heart lightly, with the tenderness in his eyes, "Give me a call, it's time for us."
Jie Yin proclaimed the Buddha's name, and the figure slowly turned into a little bit of starlight, and disappeared together with Kong Xuan.
With Rahu's death, the monsters that were born from his devilish energy slowly disappeared, leaving only the disciples of the Three Religions and the Buddhist disciples looking at each other.
"What happened?" Han Mei looked at the place where the monster disappeared. There was no trace left there. If it wasn't for the traces of their fight, she might have thought it was a dream.
"The calamity has passed!" Baishi turned around, tears streaming down his eyes, "Teacher, all the saints have disappeared."
"Teacher!" The disciples of the Three Religions and Baishi bowed their heads and knelt down with tears in their eyes.
"Why aren't saints immortal? Why do everyone die? The teacher disappeared, why did he disappear?" Bi Xiao threw herself into Lu Ya's arms, and Dou Da's eyes couldn't stop streaming, "I haven't told him yet." Just to show off, I can be on my own now. Teacher......"
The rest of the disciples of the Three Religions were also suppressed and weeping. No one had the joy of remaining alive after the catastrophe, and they were not even happy when they heard that the catastrophe had passed.
Because their teacher is no longer there, the teacher who taught them since childhood has gone.
"Fool! Fool!" A long sigh came from a distance, "Your teachers have become the laws of this world, they have not disappeared, you need this world, and this world also needs you, you see"
After finishing speaking, Hongjun pointed towards the distance
Everyone looked sideways, and saw that the already devastated world was slowly recovering, the cracks in the earth were slowly closing, the flooded water from all over the world also began to return to its original state, and even the fallen trees and even flowers and plants were slowly recovering.
The world is slowly growing and recovering.
"This is what your teacher left you, a world with safe laws and endless calamities"
In the endless void, Si Nian slowly opened his eyes, looking at everything in front of him in confusion
Zhunti, Jieyin, Nuwa, Sanqing, Kong Xuan, Hongjun, not only were they there, even Luohu was there.
"What's going on?" Si Nian looked at Kong Xuan
Kong Xuan helped him up, looked at Luo Hu and Hongjun with a smile, "Let them talk about this matter."
Luo Hu laughed out loud, with an evil smile, "This world is actually just our projection, and we exist in a larger world, which is exactly the same as the prehistoric world."
"This world is actually Pangu's afterthought, but after all, the way of heaven has already been created in it. We can only draw a projection into this world and protect it for him. However, because the way of heaven is incomplete, no matter how we protect it, this world will always be are all headed for annihilation.”
Hongjun sighed, and looked at the confused Si Nian with a smile on his face, "This is the last time we will work together to reenact the world, if we go to annihilation again, the way of heaven in this world will never be restored, fortunately you are here. "
"I still don't quite understand, what does this have to do with me?" Si Nian scratched his head
"In a word, the direction of this world is set in advance, including our final sacrifice." Tongtian patted Si Nian on the shoulder, "However, in this last opening of the sky, because of your participation, we discovered It’s different. In the end, because of your sacrifice, all living beings remember what to ask for and what to give back.”
"The reason why the world is going to perish is because the living beings are constantly asking for it, and the destruction of the world caused by their asking has no choice but to cause calamity, and your sacrifice has taught Heaven to know that it is impossible to give endlessly, and it has also let the living beings know how to give back." The way of heaven is thus perfected." Yuan Yuan stood aside and took up the conversation for Tongtian.
Si Nian understood a little bit, and asked, "What about this world now?"
"This world will slowly recycle spiritual energy. In the future, it will be difficult to cultivate immortals in the world. All living beings will also know how to restrain themselves, and understand that endless demands will only lead to self-destruction. I am afraid that the era of human beings will really come."
"So, this is the truth that the world is finally dominated by humans, and it is hard to find immortals in time?"
"That's true!" Kong Xuan said with a smile, "Immortals are like scabies. They cling to the world and keep asking for it. They shouldn't continue to exist. They will gradually lose their aura and mana and become mortals, but that will be a long time later." .”
"So what about you?" Si Nian came back to his senses and looked at them, "So you are all acting? Acting with me, only I think this is a real world?"
Kong Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "This is a real world, but this world is too small, it can't accommodate immortals, it can only accommodate mortals."
"And we are not acting with you!" Kong Xuan looked at him tenderly, and put his hand on his heart. "Listen carefully, his beating exists for you, we are not fake."
"I know you're not fake, love can't deceive people." Si Nian hugged him, and said with a smile, "Although there are still many things that haven't been clarified, I think we still have a lot of time. You can explain it to me slowly later. .”
"Oh, I really can't take it anymore." Nuwa said leisurely, "Let's go back to the big world, if this continues, wrinkles will appear at the corners of my eyes."
"Women are trouble," Luo Hu muttered, and pulled Hongjun away
Zhunti nodded to Sinian with a smile, pulled the guide and left, they are monks, they can't see these scenes
"It's none of our business here, let's go back too." Lao Tzu nodded to Yuan Yuan and Tong Tian, and left
"Now they're all gone, let's go too!" Kong Xuan turned his face and whispered something in his ear, which made Si Nian flushed and snorted
With their disappearance, only Kong Xuan's loud laugh is left in the endless void, slowly drifting away...
The author has something to say:
I've been stuck for so long, I'm really sorry!Because the original outline is gone, the ending can only be written like this!I hope you are satisfied. . . .
Sorry, so sorry!
I love my job and I hate my job.
"Big Buddha, what should we do! Now that Yue Fei is approaching the city, we have no chance of winning."
"Don't worry, I have my own concerns about this matter!" Vipashen Buddha smiled inscrutablely, and he didn't care about Jin Guo, who is now defeated like a chicken and a dog.
Outside Zhuxian Town, Yue Fei's army is ready to go. The 10,000+ army is full of fighting spirit. They are expecting, waiting, killing all these golden soldiers, driving them out of the Central Plains completely, and avenging their dead brothers and relatives.
Li Huo reached out his hand and smoothed Dapeng's frowning brow lines, "Dapeng, after tonight, we will return to the fairy world, why are you still frowning?"
"This matter has changed, we are afraid that we will disappoint the brothers outside!" Dapeng sighed, and passed the imperial decree and the received message to Lihuo.
After reading the two reports suspiciously, Li Huo was furious, "What the hell is the emperor of the Song Dynasty doing? He is asking for peace now? Obviously we are going to drive the Jin soldiers out of the pass. Now he is asking for peace. What kind of peace is he asking for?"
As a time traveler, Li Huo naturally admired Yue Fei, a famous general through the ages, and now this general is not only the person he admires, but also his Taoist companion. As long as he thinks about Yue Fei's ending in the end, he wants to change more than once. However, when this period of history really came, he still couldn't suppress his sadness. He couldn't change it, and he had no reason to stop Dapeng's plan...
The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, and the population is lost!When the Song Dynasty was completely defeated by the Kingdom of Jin, it was too late to talk about regrets.
After Yue Fei's tragic death in the Fengbo Pavilion, Li Huo went to Yingzhou to look for Si Nian angrily. I don't know what they said.
Si Nian has nothing to do about it, immeasurable catastrophe is right in front of him, and even the entire earth fairy world is in panic, who can have time to pay attention to the situation in the human world.
The disciples in Yingzhou Island have recently been cultivating in closed caves, not only them, but also in the world of immortals, except for casual cultivators, all saints' sects are like this.
And they never imagined that the so-called immeasurable calamity would start with Zhunti's death...
On this day, Kong Xuan and Si Nianzheng were working together to deduce the Dao, looking for a glimmer of life, and saw that the Earth Immortal World, which had always been clear and clear, was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and blood rained all over the sky like red lotus petals.
Everyone was startled. Driven by a miracle, they looked towards the west one after another, and saw Zhunti's golden body of Bodhi looming in the air. Suddenly, the Sanskrit sound rang out and spread throughout the three worlds. Zhunti smiled, "May my Buddhism be prosperous forever!" prosper!"
The Seven Wonderful Treasure Tree seemed to have sensed the death of its owner, and its brilliance suddenly flourished, turning into a little bit of starlight and falling on the land in the west.
"Zhunti" showed a dejected look on his perennially miserable face, looking at Zhunti's face in the air, tears streaming down his face.
The two brothers have been together since their incarnation, and they have never been separated, but now Zhunti actually abandoned himself, just for the west to have some room for maneuver in the immeasurable calamity!
Until Zhunti's Bodhi golden body gradually disappeared, everyone still couldn't come back to their senses. Saints live forever, so why did Zhunti die like this?Died so suddenly?
You must know that the sage entrusts his primordial spirit to the way of heaven with the help of the primordial spirit. As long as the way of heaven is indestructible, the saint is an immortal existence, but the sadness in his heart cannot deceive people, nor can the rain of blood from the way of heaven Man, Zhunti is indeed dead.
"I didn't expect Zhunti to have such awareness!" Si Nian looked away and sighed | "I have dealt with Zhunti for so many years, and I really can't imagine that one day he will die in this way."
"Zhunti Taoist friend Gao De!" Kong Xuan gave a deep salute to the West. He has a deeper morality than Si Nian, and he understands Zhunti's approach better. However, it is precisely because he understands that he sighs in his heart. It became his obsession, but he never expected that now, for the sake of the West to leave behind a kindling, he would be willing to abandon himself and use his cultivation as a saint to suppress luck for the West."
Sanqing and Nuwa also looked sad. Although they and Zhunti were dirty and looked down on his usual behavior, but at this time, they couldn't do what Zhunti did, abandoning themselves to continue their own foundation.
"Zhunti!" Luo Hu's face was distorted, and he looked angrily at the demonic energy purified by the boundless Buddha's light.
These demonic qi were the grievances he ordered Vipashen Buddha to collect on the Song and Jin battlefields, and it took countless efforts to condense them, but now, they were completely purified by Zhunti.
"Just for these disciples? Are they worth it?" Luo Hu shouted towards the void
However, he couldn't answer him whether it was worth mentioning or not, so he guided the Buddhist disciples who glanced at him with a dazed expression, uttered the Buddha's name, and swept them out of the west.
"Rahu! I didn't expect you to be hiding in my west!" Losing Zhunti, Jieyin's miserable face was so bitter that water dripped down his face. Hit towards Rahu.
"Go away!" Zhunti disrupted his plan, and he was worried that he would not find a chance to find someone to settle the score.I didn't expect the guide to come to your door!
"Wuliang Tianzun! Sweep away the evil spirits, how can I miss Sanqing!" As soon as Lao Tzu's voice fell, Sanqing had already come to the west
"Luohu, you have done many injustices, and now you are forcing a saint to death, and the sky will not tolerate you!" Yuan Yuan threw out the three precious jade Ruyi in his hand, held the Pangu banner, and brushed down the chaotic sword energy.
"I'll come to meet you for a while too!" Tong Tian laughed out loud, and the four swords of Jade Immortal in his hand actually merged into one. "Jie Yin, don't worry, we will avenge you."
"It's so lively, how can I miss my little sister!" Nuwa threw down the red hydrangea ball, protected herself with the map of mountains and rivers, and also reached the battlefield.
"Zunti Daoyou Dade, avenge him, how can we miss Yingzhou Island!" Kong Xuan took Si Nian, appeared in the sky, and pointed his gun at Luo Hu, "You know this thing!"
How could Luo Hu not recognize the black flame floating from the tip of the sword? It was his own devilish energy mixed with Kong Xuan's unique five-color magical power.
It turned out that Kong Xuan fused the innate five-element bead bestowed by Hongjun that day to form the innate five-element body unique in this world, and through this five-element body, he could freely control it without fear of evil energy.
And this innate five-element Taoist body, apart from Kong Xuan, there is only Luo Hu in the world except Hongjun.
"Good good good good good good good good! You all come well!" Luo Hu patted the twelfth-rank World-Exterminating Black Lotus, and a monstrous demonic flame floated behind him, and he raised his head to the sky and let out a long cry, "Good come, good come! Old man Hongjun, just look at it!" , How did I kill all your disciples and grandchildren?"
Following Rahu's long howl, the entire Earth Immortal Realm suddenly began to shake violently. Countless cave houses were burned under the violent shaking, and the sea water of the whole world began to pour back, and those immortals who hadn't had time to evacuate even screamed before they melted. Made fly ash.
Hanmei Baishi and the others quickly activated the formation to protect the island, but they still couldn't stop the rupture of Yingzhou Island, so they had to drag the remaining disciples to heaven and earth, watching the sudden great changes in the world.
"What's going on here?" Han Mei glanced around, and found that not only them, but even Jin'ao Island had undergone tremendous changes. Yun Xiao and the others were also flying in the air, their faces dazed.
"Brother, what should we do now?" Han Mei looked at Bai Shi worriedly
Baishi thought for a moment, then took out his magic weapon and yelled, "Disciples of Yingzhou listened to the orders, the sky has changed dramatically, I am afraid that it is not the East China Sea that suffers, I will contact the disciples of the three religions to go to Buzhou Mountain first, there is the pillar of heaven and earth, it should be able to last for a while .”
Following the sending of messages, Baishi brought the disciples of Yingzhou and Jiejiao together, and started heading towards Mount Buzhou.
Not around the mountain
Yun Zhongzi looked at the invulnerable monster in front of him, and his face was a little ugly. "Brother, what are these things? Why have I never heard of them before?"
"I don't know either! Be careful, these monsters are a bit difficult!" Guang Chengzi also looked distressed. His Fantian Seal was refined from a broken mountain pillar in Buzhou Mountain. Now it is smashed down, It's like tickling those monsters.
Daoist Taiyi pulled Nezha back and pointed to the distance, "Look, those monsters are still emerging from the ground."
"The sky and the earth have changed dramatically, I am afraid this is the real immeasurable calamity!" The figure of the Three Emperors and Zhen Yuanzi appeared in the void.
Under the influence of the red cloud, Zhen Yuanzi has a compassionate heart. Looking at the immortals who are constantly dying under the attacks of these monsters, he sighs and finally takes out the book of the earth and turns it into the earth's fetal membrane, hoping to repair the cracks in the earth.
Fuxi pointed to the sky with one hand and pointed to the ground with the other, and Hetu Luoshu turned into a gigantic gossip, protecting the disciples of Chanjiao in it, "The sage is dealing with Rahu in the west now, and now these monsters emerging from the ground may only be dealt with by ourselves .”
"But what are these things? We have tried countless methods, but we can't do anything about them." Guang Chengzi's expression turned ugly.Chao Fuxi asked
Fuxi was controlling Hetu Luoshu at this time, so Shennong could only answer, "These monsters were born from the seven emotions and six desires of immortals and human beings after the creation of heaven, and they were nourished by the evil energy of the calamity before they finally took shape. I am afraid that to deal with them, we can only Borrowing the power of merit!"
"The power of merit?" Taiyi pondered for a while, and then he put the merit he gained from suppressing the underworld into the Nine Dragons Divine Flame Cover, and then threw it at a nearby monster, and saw that the monster that was originally invulnerable to water and fire was transformed by the power of merit. Under the effect, the body began to make a "sizzling" sound slowly, and slowly turned into nothingness.
"It really works!" Everyone was delighted.Follow the same pattern, and soon, all the monsters near Buzhou Mountain were wiped out.
"Zhen Yuanzi!" Just when everyone was happy, Xuanyuan yelled and supported Zhen Yuanzi who looked weak
The dramatic movement from the earth turned out to be faster, and the cracks in the earth that were originally protected by the earth book began to burst again, and a large number of monsters poured into the earth fairy world like locusts.
"Brother, be careful!" Guang Chengzi, who was directing Fan Tianyin, heard Yun Zhongzi's shout, turned his head and saw a monster flying towards him at some point.
"It's too late!" Guang Chengzi looked at the monster close at hand, and closed his eyes in despair.
However, the expected pain did not hit, a gust of warm blood swept across Guang Chengzi's face, Guang Chengzi opened his eyes, and only had time to see Yun Zhongzi's painful eyes, and he saw that he was transformed into a monster under the attack of the monster. Bits of starlight dissipated.
"Yun Zhongzi!" "Junior Brother!"
Tears couldn't help but fall down, but it was too late for Chanjiao to wipe them away, and monsters kept pouring out of the cracks. They seemed to have no wisdom, but they had the same goal, which was the Tianzhu of Buzhou Mountain.
Taiyi was shocked when he got this conjecture, he threw the Jade Cauldron, and shouted, "Go and see the Tianzhu, their goal is the Tianzhu."
"Tianzhu?" Daoist Yuding's heart was throbbing, and he ran towards Tianzhu without looking back.
Buzhou mountain side
Han Mei condensed her merits on the tip of the Wind Soul Needle, and kept shooting these monsters. Seeing that these monsters kept going behind her, she hurriedly shouted to Baishi, "Brother, their target seems to be the Tianzhu!"
Baishi naturally saw it, his brows were slightly frowned, and he was suddenly shocked. This Tianzhu was not the original Buzhou Mountain Pillar, but was refined by Nuwa from the limbs of the black turtle. It was not as strong as the original one. The monster is destroyed, and there is no support for the sky and the earth. I am afraid that it is only a matter of time before the sky and the earth close.
Knowing the key point, Baishi shouted to everyone, "Their purpose is to destroy the Tianzhu, and they must not be allowed to succeed. Everyone is divided into four groups to guard the Tianzhu, and they must not be allowed to destroy the Tianzhu."
Everyone naturally took orders, Baishi led a part of the Jujiao people to guard the east, Han Mei led Fujitora and others to guard the west, and Lu Ya led Bai Su and the rest of the people to go from the north.
"Brother, there are not enough people in the south!" Yun Xiao was worried, and took the initiative to ask Ying, "Let the junior sister take the sister and brother to the south."
"Sister, stay and help Senior Brother Baishi!" Bi Xiao's face was covered with blood, but her eyes were clear and firm, "Let me go south with Qiong Xiao's sister, Gong Ming, and we will not be destroyed by these monsters even if we die." Tianzhu."
"Little sister!" Yun Xiao looked sad, "There are only three of you in the south, and you were sent to death in the past. You can't be willful at this time. Your cultivation base is still weak, and your merits are not enough. How can you defeat these monsters?"
"My sister underestimated me!" Bi Xiao laughed loudly, and raised the golden scissors in her hand, "We have been under the care of my sister and teacher, and we have never had a chance to show it. Now is the time for me, Bi Xiao, to show my power , Sister, don’t worry.”
"Bi Xiao!"
"Sister, don't worry." Zhao Gongming's face flashed with sadness, and he took a deep look at Yunxiao, "With me, Zhao Gongming, I will definitely protect Bixiao and Qiongxiao, so let us go."
"You don't have to fight anymore." Lu Ya suddenly appeared in the east, and smiled at Bi Xiao, "I will accompany you to the south."
"Daoist Lu Ya, why are you here?" Bai Shi was startled when he saw Lu Ya, "Junior Sister Bai Su has not recovered from her serious injury, and no one of them is in charge. I'm afraid..."
"Don't worry, we went to the north and saw the disciples of Chanjiao. With Guangchengzi and Xuandu here, they should be able to take care of themselves."
"Yun Xiao thanked Taoist Lord here!" Yun Xiao saluted Lu Ya
"Why be polite?" Lu Ya waved his hands, laughed loudly, and pulled Yun Xiao and the others towards the south.
Western Buddha
Luo Hu was playing with the Four Swords of Zhuxian in his hands, and looked at Sanqing and others who were trapped in the formation, he laughed and said, "You disciples and grandchildren think that they can defend the Tianzhu, and they are asking for death. My magic army is endless. As long as I Undead, it will only be a matter of time before they destroy the Tianzhu."
The golden light of merit behind Nuwa was about to condense into substance, she shouted angrily, and the picture of mountains and rivers wrapped her and flew towards the boundless magic flame, which suddenly broke a big gap.
"Junior Sister Nuwa!" I burst into tears, looked at Nuwa who was burned by the raging fire, slapped himself on the top of the head, turned into Sanqing, and threw out the Tai Chi diagram, making his eyes red.
"Let's go out!" Tong Tian blinked back his tears, holding the Qingping Sword, and rushed towards Luo Hu together with Yuan Yuan.
"Is there any injury?" Kong Xuan glanced at the battlefield, looked at Si Nian with red eyes, and held his hand tightly, "This is not a long-term place. Nuwa has already sacrificed, so you can't do anything."
"I'm fine, don't worry." Si Nian patted his hand, protected himself, and nodded at him, "I'll take care of myself, you go and help Sanqing."
Watching Kong Xuan join the battlefield, Si Nian struggled to hold himself up, but couldn't help spitting out blood, but he saw the guide come over and gave him something, "This thing was given to me by my junior brother when he passed away." , He said that only you can do this."
Si Nian stared at the Gengjin essence in his hand for a moment, recalling the past over and over again, but still couldn't understand how Zhunti would give this thing to him, so he had to put it away first, and sat down to adjust his breath.
"Big brother" originally held the Pangu banner and shouted at Lao Tzu, the bun on his head was messed up, and the Taoist robe on his body was also in tatters
"Third brother" he glanced at Tong Tian who was lying on the ground, his eyes were a little deep, "Do you still remember why we were born? Now you can't bear your saint position?"
Tongtian understood the original plan, glanced at Lao Tzu, and threw the Qingping sword into the air, "Brothers for a lifetime, brothers for a lifetime. We have enjoyed the kneeling of all beings, and now it is time to do meritorious deeds for all beings."
Lao Tzu also nodded, and the red lotus on his head, representing the supernatant, rushed towards the original white lotus and the sky-reaching blue lotus. The three lotus flowers circled around leisurely for a few times, and slowly joined together to form a single flower. The huge Qinglian, and Sanqing's figure gradually became blurred.
At the place where they disappeared, the green lotus was shining brilliantly, illuminating the devastated land, and gradually turned into a muscular man holding an illusory ax in his hand. His stature was getting taller and taller. come higher.
"Pangu Phantom!" Blocking Kong Xuan's God-killing Spear, Luo Hu's face turned ugly, "What did Hongjun give you, and what did this world give you, is it worth your sacrifice?"
Pangu Xuying didn't answer his words, and Sanqing couldn't give him any answer, only to see him shouting, and the ax in his hand locked onto Luohu, as if he had used all his strength to chop down the axe.
Si Nian stared blankly at the dots of starlight that Pangu's phantom turned into, and Luo Hu's question kept popping up in his mind, what did this world give them?It is worth their self-sacrifice to save this devastated world.
He recalled his origin over and over again, and recalled everything he had done since he came to this world, including good, bad, selfishness, and compassion.
Zhunti is dead, Nuwa is also dead, and now Sanqing has turned into dust, so what about me?What about Kong Xuan?Will he also sacrifice for this world like them?
Where is the meaning of sacrifice?Si Nian's heart slowly fell silent. He found out the essence of Gengjin that belonged to Zhunti, and slowly condensed the essence of Jiamu that belonged to him. He suddenly seemed to understand something.
He raised his head to the sky and screamed, and a Taoist who was exactly like him appeared beside him, who was his real self.
"I see." Si Nian opened his eyes, and the Taoist saluted him before entering his body
The brilliance in his hands flourished, and his body slowly began to become illusory, turning into a mass of Jiamu Qingqi
"Brothers and sisters, help me, we enjoy the worship of mortals all the time, now it's time for us to give back to them, immortals are never superior, we need the contribution of this world, and now it's time for us to give back to this world It's time."
All of a sudden, Zhen Yuanzi, Li Huo, and the spirit of Renshui in Zixiao Palace flourished in the distance, turned into their own bodies, and headed in the direction of Si Nian! "Brothers and sisters! Here we come."
Wood gave birth to fire, fire gave birth to earth, earth gave birth to gold, metal gave birth to water, and water gave birth to wood. When the five innate essences slowly merged together, the colorful brilliance on Kong Xuan's body suddenly began to flourish, and then slowly merged together. Together.
"Si Nian!" Kong Xuan caressed his chest, a tear fell from his eyes, and his eyes slowly became firm
I saw that he slowly turned into a giant with colorful brilliance, and the tip of the god-killing spear in his hand also flashed with colorful light, and a shot pierced Luo Hu's injured body.
Afterwards, his figure gradually became normal size, and he patted his heart lightly, with the tenderness in his eyes, "Give me a call, it's time for us."
Jie Yin proclaimed the Buddha's name, and the figure slowly turned into a little bit of starlight, and disappeared together with Kong Xuan.
With Rahu's death, the monsters that were born from his devilish energy slowly disappeared, leaving only the disciples of the Three Religions and the Buddhist disciples looking at each other.
"What happened?" Han Mei looked at the place where the monster disappeared. There was no trace left there. If it wasn't for the traces of their fight, she might have thought it was a dream.
"The calamity has passed!" Baishi turned around, tears streaming down his eyes, "Teacher, all the saints have disappeared."
"Teacher!" The disciples of the Three Religions and Baishi bowed their heads and knelt down with tears in their eyes.
"Why aren't saints immortal? Why do everyone die? The teacher disappeared, why did he disappear?" Bi Xiao threw herself into Lu Ya's arms, and Dou Da's eyes couldn't stop streaming, "I haven't told him yet." Just to show off, I can be on my own now. Teacher......"
The rest of the disciples of the Three Religions were also suppressed and weeping. No one had the joy of remaining alive after the catastrophe, and they were not even happy when they heard that the catastrophe had passed.
Because their teacher is no longer there, the teacher who taught them since childhood has gone.
"Fool! Fool!" A long sigh came from a distance, "Your teachers have become the laws of this world, they have not disappeared, you need this world, and this world also needs you, you see"
After finishing speaking, Hongjun pointed towards the distance
Everyone looked sideways, and saw that the already devastated world was slowly recovering, the cracks in the earth were slowly closing, the flooded water from all over the world also began to return to its original state, and even the fallen trees and even flowers and plants were slowly recovering.
The world is slowly growing and recovering.
"This is what your teacher left you, a world with safe laws and endless calamities"
In the endless void, Si Nian slowly opened his eyes, looking at everything in front of him in confusion
Zhunti, Jieyin, Nuwa, Sanqing, Kong Xuan, Hongjun, not only were they there, even Luohu was there.
"What's going on?" Si Nian looked at Kong Xuan
Kong Xuan helped him up, looked at Luo Hu and Hongjun with a smile, "Let them talk about this matter."
Luo Hu laughed out loud, with an evil smile, "This world is actually just our projection, and we exist in a larger world, which is exactly the same as the prehistoric world."
"This world is actually Pangu's afterthought, but after all, the way of heaven has already been created in it. We can only draw a projection into this world and protect it for him. However, because the way of heaven is incomplete, no matter how we protect it, this world will always be are all headed for annihilation.”
Hongjun sighed, and looked at the confused Si Nian with a smile on his face, "This is the last time we will work together to reenact the world, if we go to annihilation again, the way of heaven in this world will never be restored, fortunately you are here. "
"I still don't quite understand, what does this have to do with me?" Si Nian scratched his head
"In a word, the direction of this world is set in advance, including our final sacrifice." Tongtian patted Si Nian on the shoulder, "However, in this last opening of the sky, because of your participation, we discovered It’s different. In the end, because of your sacrifice, all living beings remember what to ask for and what to give back.”
"The reason why the world is going to perish is because the living beings are constantly asking for it, and the destruction of the world caused by their asking has no choice but to cause calamity, and your sacrifice has taught Heaven to know that it is impossible to give endlessly, and it has also let the living beings know how to give back." The way of heaven is thus perfected." Yuan Yuan stood aside and took up the conversation for Tongtian.
Si Nian understood a little bit, and asked, "What about this world now?"
"This world will slowly recycle spiritual energy. In the future, it will be difficult to cultivate immortals in the world. All living beings will also know how to restrain themselves, and understand that endless demands will only lead to self-destruction. I am afraid that the era of human beings will really come."
"So, this is the truth that the world is finally dominated by humans, and it is hard to find immortals in time?"
"That's true!" Kong Xuan said with a smile, "Immortals are like scabies. They cling to the world and keep asking for it. They shouldn't continue to exist. They will gradually lose their aura and mana and become mortals, but that will be a long time later." .”
"So what about you?" Si Nian came back to his senses and looked at them, "So you are all acting? Acting with me, only I think this is a real world?"
Kong Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "This is a real world, but this world is too small, it can't accommodate immortals, it can only accommodate mortals."
"And we are not acting with you!" Kong Xuan looked at him tenderly, and put his hand on his heart. "Listen carefully, his beating exists for you, we are not fake."
"I know you're not fake, love can't deceive people." Si Nian hugged him, and said with a smile, "Although there are still many things that haven't been clarified, I think we still have a lot of time. You can explain it to me slowly later. .”
"Oh, I really can't take it anymore." Nuwa said leisurely, "Let's go back to the big world, if this continues, wrinkles will appear at the corners of my eyes."
"Women are trouble," Luo Hu muttered, and pulled Hongjun away
Zhunti nodded to Sinian with a smile, pulled the guide and left, they are monks, they can't see these scenes
"It's none of our business here, let's go back too." Lao Tzu nodded to Yuan Yuan and Tong Tian, and left
"Now they're all gone, let's go too!" Kong Xuan turned his face and whispered something in his ear, which made Si Nian flushed and snorted
With their disappearance, only Kong Xuan's loud laugh is left in the endless void, slowly drifting away...
The author has something to say:
I've been stuck for so long, I'm really sorry!Because the original outline is gone, the ending can only be written like this!I hope you are satisfied. . . .
Sorry, so sorry!
I love my job and I hate my job.
