The fairy father

"teacher?"

Hou Tu murmured softly and looked at the old man who appeared in front of him.

Everything around him became blurry.

Hongjun's burly figure looked a little rickety at the moment.

He frowned at Hou Tu and sighed softly: "The time has come."

Hou Tuzu Wu frowned slightly, lowered his head and said nothing.

Hongjun asked: "It stands to reason that you should have understood your mission. Today, the Blood Sea and Styx River is about to die. When you go to complete this matter... do you have any questions?"

"Teacher, this disciple has too many questions."

Hou Tu looked up at Hongjun and said slowly:

"I want to ask the teacher, what is right and what is wrong?"

"What is right and wrong depends on what the situation is," Hongjun said slowly, "Why do you have this question?"

"Disciple just hasn't figured it out yet," Hou Tu sighed softly, "Teacher, what you said back then was denied by yourself one by one. You said you didn't want to interfere with the evolution of heaven and earth, and you didn't want to be tainted with cause and effect, but you didn't Have you been interfering?”

Hongjun was silent.

Houtu murmured: "Did I really understand the Great Way of Reincarnation myself? Or was it because the Great Way of Earth that I control is the most consistent with the Great Way of Reincarnation, so I was chosen by the teacher?"

Hongjun just put his hands behind his back and did not answer. There was a sense of loneliness in his old eyes.

Hou Tu continued:

“From ancient times to the present, there has always been a big hand controlling everything.

"This disciple is willing to open up reincarnation for living beings. This can also give the Witch Clan a place to stay and repay His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven for his many favors.

"But this disciple is afraid of one thing... This is what you arranged.

"The disciple cannot see through it, nor can he understand it. After reincarnation is established, it should be excellent for the world and all living beings, but the disciple dare not take this step because... this is what you are planning."

Hongjun closed his eyes and sighed: "Hou Tu, there are many things here that I cannot explain to you."

"Isn't the teacher even willing to explain to his disciples now?"

Hou Tu smiled bitterly: "Or perhaps it would be more appropriate for the disciple to ask His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven."

"You know the things about the transcendent ones."

Hongjun said:

"He is watching you and me all the time, so there are things I cannot do that are too obvious. You are not the only ones who want this world to be perfect."

Hou Tu said: "So, teacher, you set up today's situation to let the emperor die in battle and let the heaven dominate the human race?"

Hongjun muttered for a few times: "This matter is indeed related to me."

"Teacher, you said before that it was your last return to the wilderness..."

"Things changed so much that I had to go out and arrange some things myself."

Hongjun said slowly:

"If the transcendent one hadn't been there, I wouldn't have had to work so hard.

"If I didn't know about transcendence, I wouldn't be controlled by the transcendent one step by step.

"Sigh, I know you don't really believe me now, but building the six paths of reincarnation is indeed the only way for heaven and earth to reach perfection. There will be many difficulties behind this road, but if you don't take this step, the rest of the world will be Where do we start talking about the road?”

Hou Tu pursed his lips slightly and just stared at Hongjun quietly.

She wanted to know more.

In other words, she needs Hongjun to convince her that Hongjun has no unnecessary plans.

Hongjun stood quietly for a while with his hands behind his hands, seeming to hesitate.

After all, he took the initiative to explain to Hou Tu:

"There are many things that are not as simple as you see. What makes me unable to stay away is not just the threat of the transcendent.

"Now I am actually caught between the detached person and the Three Pure Ones. Sometimes I don't know what I want. If I want to be detached, I don't care about the world, but in the end I still can't be cruel.

"Who can really be free from cause and effect?

“Even God Pangu, doesn’t he have a karmic relationship with the innate gods and demons?

“As long as it is in the tangible world, cause and effect cannot be escaped.

"Houtu, I can tell you three things. If you still can't get rid of your worries, then I don't have to force you."

Hou Tu nodded slightly: "Please forgive me for being rude, disciple. It's your opinion."

"First, the origins of Li Ping'an and Li Dazhi are very strange."

Hongjun said slowly:

“I dare not pursue this matter because as long as I pursue it, the clues will be cut off out of thin air.

"Secondly, there are some unexplainable problems in this world. Everything seems to be right, but nothing seems to be right.

"Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, under my hint, the Fuxi clan who went to the Sea of ​​Chaos to find the answer to the question in ancient times has encountered something unexpected."

Hou Tu was startled.

Hongjun continued: "And thirdly, don't you think it's too easy for Li Ping'an to become the Emperor of Heaven? There are almost no strong enemies. When fortune comes, heaven and earth will work together! If there is no one behind this, it is absolutely impossible. .”

Hou Tu sighed: "Teacher, you are a little obsessed."

"Obsession?" Hongjun frowned slightly, "Where does the obsession come from?"

Hou Tu asked: "Teacher, what do you think of Emperor Ping An?"

Hongjun said: "He has a gentle temperament, has many strategies, is good at planning, shrewd and capable, and has an excellent grasp of the balance of all parties. He is the first contributor to the rapid development of Tianting."

Hou Tu asked again: "Do you think, teacher, if the boy I saw back then were to be the Emperor of Heaven, he could do better than Emperor Ping'an?"

"Haotian doesn't have so many ideas."

Hongjun shook his head and sighed:

"When it comes to this matter, even the Sanqing has favored our Heavenly Emperor. Taiqing is afraid that I will use Haotian to plot against Tianting Tiandao and Li Ping'an later, so he forced me to kill Haotian.

"Back then, I banned Haotian for no reason, and when I beheaded Haotian, I didn't give him any reason.

"It left a knot in my stomach."

Hou Tu nodded slowly: "Senior Brother Taiqing's move is also appropriate. Since Emperor Ping'an is so outstanding, why bother leaving such hidden dangers?"

Hongjun said: "But if Haotian is killed, this world will have no way out. We can only continue on the path planned by Li Ping'an."

Hou Tu asked back: "Teacher? Aren't you obsessed with this?"

Hongjun's face showed surprise.

Hou Tu said softly:

“Teacher’s visit to see his disciples this time is quite different from last time.

"There seems to be a lot of frustration between the teacher's brows. The teacher is sitting in the Zixiao Palace. There shouldn't be many things that can make the teacher frustrated.

"Although I dare not say that I know the teacher well, I do know that the teacher is used to hiding behind the scenes and arranging plans, so I tried my words and found out the reason for the teacher's frustration. It is probably that the trend of the world has not developed as the teacher thought.

“Teachers are used to being in control.”

Hongjun laughed dumbly: "After you said it like this, it is indeed like this. It's such a nature, but it's hard to change."

"Then why does the teacher want to find the way to transcendence?"

"Who doesn't want to transcend and gain true freedom?"

"Teacher, you haven't told the truth to your disciple yet."

Hou Tu sighed slightly:

"Teacher, you have been hinting to the disciple since ancient times that it is the disciple's destiny to reincarnate in the six realms of reincarnation, but the disciple saw something in Emperor Ping'an.

“Actually, there is no such thing as fate.

"How did he become the Emperor of Heaven?

“First, he relied on his talent in weapon refining to win the favor of Yun Zhongzi and then gain the support of Yuanshi Tianzun. Then he resonated with the way of heaven and made great ambitions to seize the fate of the emperor.

"He invited the Holy Mother back from the Sea of ​​Chaos. The Human Emperor didn't think much of him at first, but he became famous in just a few years.

"Teacher, is this really due to luck?"

Hongjun frowned and said: "There are many things I didn't want to say to you, but today I will make it clear to you. Your teacher, I am by no means a treacherous and evil person. To reach this point today, it is really because of the detachment." The person is forced to do so!”

Hou Tu:......

Hongjun sighed, and blurry pictures appeared behind him.

This is a magical power of memory reappearance.

Hou Tu was stunned for a moment and looked carefully at the memory behind Hongjun.

She felt the resonance of the great avenue and knew that such memories were confirmed by the mark of the great avenue and could not be faked.

Hongjun's voice became distant, and what he said corresponded to what Hou Tu saw, and there was no falsehood at all.

Hongjun said:

“I met this transcendent being when I first transformed into the Chaos Sea.

"At that time, Pangu had not yet broken out of his shell, but around the chicken that gave birth to Pangu, clear avenues of order had appeared. The three thousand avenues had begun to intersect at that time. I couldn't tell whether it was Pangu who caused this situation. , it was the resonance of the Three Thousand Avenues and the True Spirit that gave birth to Pangu, but this does not prevent me from enjoying the glory of Pangu God there.

"When I had just transformed and wanted to travel in the Sea of ​​Chaos, and as soon as I left the vicinity of the chicken, the transcendent person suddenly appeared in front of me and looked at me with a smile.

“He invited me to travel with him in Chaos, and I did not refuse, and then I roamed with him in the Sea of ​​Chaos for countless years.

“Then, the world was created.

"At that time, my strength was not as good as the current Taiyi Golden Immortal. I didn't dare to move forward. I could only look from a distance. If Pangu God wanted to open up a realm of order, he would inevitably destroy the Sea of ​​Chaos. All the innate gods and demons instinctively began to attack Pangu God. .

“The creation of the world was very fast, but also very slow, because the Chaos Sea did not have the specific concept of time at that time.

"During the battle between Pangu and the innate gods and demons, many ancient tribes were incorporated, including the Longfeng and Nuwa tribes, who all helped Pangu, and Pangu therefore gave them the right to survive after the creation of the world.

"During this process, I am also constantly enlightening and comprehending the changes in the Three Thousand Avenues, and because of this, a treasure came to me on its own initiative.

"The jade plate of good fortune.

"The transcendent person was watching from the sidelines, and even took the initiative to explain to me the function of the jade plate of creation, and described for me all the trends after the creation of the world.

"He explained clearly the battle between dragons, phoenixes and unicorns, Rahu's evil deeds, the rise and decline of innate beings, and how the Wu clan developed and grew. At this time, Pangu God had not yet completed the creation of the sky.

“I looked at this friend in shock, and he confided in me his origins.

"Detachment...I later found out that he had already planned everything and was leading the way to detachment."

Houtu frowned tightly.

Hongjun continued:

"In the long years of ancient times, with his help, I successfully reached Da Luo Jinxian and Half Saint.

"The fateful battle between me and Luo Hu broke out smoothly, and I won easily because I got the God-killing Spear in advance under the guidance of the Transcendent One.

"I took him at his word.

"He told me that Pangu's creation of the world was a spiritual practice. The disturbance caused by Pangu's birth resulted in the emergence of countless worlds with similar fates, and we are just one possibility and one path among them. Logically speaking, each world should not be Interfering with each other, but each creature is unique.

"Therefore, I am Hongjun, and I am different from other Hongjuns in the world. Only by transcending can I find my true self and escape from the ax blade of God Pangu.

"That's it, I broke the jade dish of creation and ruined the possibility of our world reaching perfection.

“The direction of heaven and earth was determined when Pangu opened the sky.

"This is also something I can't figure out - why did Pangu have to have the three major catastrophes of dragons and phoenixes, lichs, and gods after the creation of heaven, and then the world gradually went from prosperity to silence?

“So I also want to transcend, and I want to explore this answer.

"But when I broke the jade dish of creation, that guy revealed his true colors. He had been planning for countless years, just waiting for this moment.

"Once the Jade Disk of Creation is broken, there will be no possibility for the great powers in heaven and earth to unite. If I die, the Jade Disk of Creation will find another great power to unite with it. This is to make the Dao of Heaven perfect as soon as possible. The Jade Disk of Creation is the Dao of Heaven. The first treasure that was brewed, and the initial form of Heavenly Dao, was the chicken that wrapped God Pangu.

“I didn’t understand it at the time.

"By this time, I was out of the game, and the world has ushered in a period of time without saint-level masters or forces, and I have completely become his vassal.

"When Zulong and Shifeng died, he could destroy the world at will.

"I can't tell you what he planned, but I can be sure that he wants this original thing left after the death of heaven and earth.

“Whether I can transcend in the end depends on whether he gives me charity.

"He rarely tells lies to you because he doesn't have to. He takes the initiative and is convinced that this world is hopeless.

"I sometimes have to tell you lies because I don't know how to explain them to you.

"He controls the time of Liu Xing's birthday. Only if he nods can I bring out the Hongmeng Purple Qi.

“Haotian was the one who asked me to ban him because he didn’t want Heaven to be established too early, lest Heaven’s Way develop to perfection too quickly.

"I'll do it all, just to transcend."

Hou Tu bit his lip gently: "Teacher..."

"Then, as if he was playing a trick on me, he suddenly accepted Li Pingan as his disciple and took Li Pingan to transcend with him. He even asked Li Pingan to enter the semi-saint realm in order for Li Pingan to successfully transcend!"

Hongjun's eyes were a little more violent:

"I have been begging for mercy behind his back, for so many years and so much humiliation, just for this opportunity of transcendence!

"He humiliated me so much!"

Then, his anger dissipated, leaving only a sad smile:

"After all, this is all my own fault. He has taken control of me step by step, and now even the Divine Killing Spear has been taken away by him.

"Hou Tu, you actually have the sharpest mind, so it's no wonder you can see something.

“This is my obsession and unwillingness.

"But there's one thing you can't say about me... I'm trying to make up for my mistakes, so I called a dozen of you from ancient times to come to my class. I originally wanted the lich to stop fighting. You can recall For a moment, did I always intend for Dijun and Donghuang to get close to you?

"But it's useless. Conflict is still inevitable. Everything develops according to the story told to me by the transcendent person. Even if there are some variables, the variables will be covered by the general trend.

“And what I did, I didn’t dare to offend this transcendent person.

"I gradually became disheartened, and that's why I said what I said when I went to see you last time, I don't want to come back again.

"In fact, I didn't mean to break my promise. I was forced by the situation and had no choice but to do it."

Hou Tu asked: "Is the teacher's appearance this time just to urge me to use the ancestral witch body to transform into six realms of reincarnation and complete the way of heaven?"

"Not just."

Hongjun said slowly:

"In the Sea of ​​Chaos, I also did some things behind the back of the Transcendents. When I came back this time, I originally wanted to kill the Xuanyuan clan and return the human race to heaven as soon as possible."

Hou Tu:......

Hongjun smiled bitterly:

"Of course this is a bad thing, Xuanyuan is worthy of the human race and the world.

"But the time is really running out. When the Six Saints return, the Dao Immortal Tribulation, that is, the Great Tribulation of the Gods, will almost happen, and the world will enter a countdown.

"Li Ping'an really has some skills. He actually thought of using the gods of Nanzhou to break the situation. My plan has been successful. Now the human race is convinced by him. The Xuanyuan clan has not fallen and will return to the Fire Dragon Cave as soon as possible.

"In mortal terms, I'm already twisted, as if I've been twisted into a ball of twists.

"But Houtu, the matter of reincarnation in the six realms cannot be delayed. There are more than tens of millions of people killed in today's bloody sea battle. You are needed to do this.

"I don't know how many opportunities there are in this world...and after today, I have to find a way to repair the gap between me and the transcendent..."

Hou Tu sighed and said, "Teacher, I understand your situation and difficulties, and today I will fulfill the principles of heaven, earth and heaven."

"I've wronged you."

"Well, well," Hou Tu shook his head gently, "all living beings need me, and this is not death."

"And one more thing."

Hongjun said in a deep voice:

"You have to act quickly. When the six paths of reincarnation are established, the way of heaven will be greatly closer to perfection.

"I don't understand what the Transcendent's plan is for the battle over at Xuandu City, but Kunpeng is the pawn he arranged.

"The Transcendent One definitely wants the world to be destroyed more clearly, and he also intends to make the world more original, so that he will gain more in the end.

"You can't always count on Li Ping'an to create any miracles. If necessary, I will go against his will and let Taiqing show up."

Houtu nodded slightly.

She said: "Teacher, is detachment really that important?"

Hongjun sighed: "We have already come to this point, and it is difficult to go back. I have no choice but to keep going... I am gone. I can tell you a little bit, and I feel much happier in my heart."

Hou Tu stood up to see him off, but Hongjun's shadow disappeared simultaneously with the mist surrounding him.

Hou Tu was stunned and found that he was standing in front of his seat, with important ministers of the heavenly court and the great shaman of the witch clan looking at him from both sides.

Qin Xiao asked loudly: "Ancestor, what's wrong?"

"Nothing," Hou Tu asked, "Are we almost reaching the sea of ​​blood?"

Qin Da was full of regrets: "It's coming soon, but we are late. It seems that the fight over there is over, and only the old boy from Styx is left hanging on the sea of ​​blood."

"Alas," Hou Tu said softly, "all sentient beings are suffering, and today I have to do the deeds of heaven."

The witches didn't know why, but Houtu was already sitting cross-legged on his seat, with a warm yellow light shining on his forehead. Two avenues surrounded him in parallel, embedded in the ancient world.

Hou Tu sighed slightly in his heart.

‘Teacher, after all, you didn’t mention half a living being in your confession. ’
