“Hahaha! Of course, of course! Then hurry up and go!”
As soon as Zhun Ti finished speaking, his figure disappeared.
Wu Yunxian raised his head and looked at the sky. Then, his figure swayed and disappeared from the Pool of Eight Virtues, leaving behind golden waves that rippled.
After Zhun Ti finished persuading Wu Yunxian, he arrived in front of a cave abode!
“Open the door!”
His commanding tone was very unyielding.
The door opened and a handsome monk appeared at the door.
It was the Golden Cicada Master!
He was also known as the Tang Monk.
“Go and help your comrades!” Zhun Ti said in a deep voice.
The Golden Cicada Master chanted the name of Buddha and said softly, “Why do you want to fight? The Heavenly Court rules the three realms and is the orthodox one. Our Mount Numinous will withdraw. Now that the two sides are fighting, countless lives have been killed and injured. Countless people have lost their tens of thousands of years of virtue and cultivation to nothingness, only adding to the evil.”
Zhun Ting said coldly, “The creation and destruction of all things have their own Heavenly Dao. Immortals and Buddhas go against the heaven, and those who attain the Dao will also suffer. Otherwise, there will be no end of Immortals and Buddhas. The Gods and Buddhas in the sky will never enter the cycle of reincarnation, which is also a great burden to the universe. Therefore, it is your duty to assist our sect in the great calamity. It is also a great kindness. How else can you kill evil?”
Zhun Ti was also very displeased with this disciple in front of him. His cultivation level was very high, but he was not very obedient. Moreover, from the looks of it, he was even a little pedantic.
The current Golden Cicada Master was not the Golden Cicada Master from back then.
It was a paradox. He was talking about the kind of person like the Tang Monk. Although he was the reincarnation of the Golden Cicada Master, his own memories were the Tang Monk’s. After he became a Buddha, he would return to the Golden Cicada Master’s consciousness.
However, the main body of the Tang Monk’s consciousness was not obliterated.
It was more like he had absorbed a type of thought and memory.
It could even be said that the original Golden Cicada Master was already dead. The Tang Monk was the main body. It was just that the Golden Cicada Master’s consciousness and memories were too powerful. Even if they entered the Tang Monk’s body in a passive manner, it still had a huge impact on the Tang Monk.
Therefore, the current Tang Monk was neither the Golden Cicada Master nor the Tang Monk.
It was an existence after the conflict and fusion of the two consciousnesses.
But he was him. No matter what the memories were, no matter what the comprehension was, he was still him.
There was no case of any split personality.
“I’m not going!”
The Tang Monk still looked the same.
He must have been extremely angry! Sometimes, these disciples were so angry that they could die!
This was especially so for those who had been brainwashed by the teachings. Their cultivation levels were high, and their ideas were correct. They did not listen to him at all.
Moreover, he knew very well that it was useless to threaten these people.
He would turn around and say, “If I don’t go to hell, who will go to hell?” .
His brainwashed disciple just had to act according to the doctrine that he couldn’t abide by. It had to be said that this was a kind of inexplicable irony.
“Why?”
“Killing is killing! How can it change because of the merits of Heaven and Earth?”
“Killing can stop killing!” Zhun Ti was very tired every time he talked to this disciple because he didn’t speak in human language.
Moreover, from a certain point of view, even if he was the founder of the doctrine, he wouldn’t listen to what he said. He would only summarize it himself according to the scriptures.
It was like reading and not understanding. People didn’t listen to what the original author thought, nor did they care about the starting point of this thing.
To put it bluntly, what was the doctrine? It was a brainwashing plan to control the followers and spread the doctrine.
Under such circumstances, even if it was Zhun Ti, there was nothing he could do.
He couldn’t possibly deny the teachings that he had written himself, right?
The Tang Monk looked at Zhun Ti, chanted a Buddhist chant, and kept his mouth shut.
Obviously, he didn’t think much of his thoughts at all.
“Why on Earth aren’t you going?” Zhun Ti was very tired of this kind of disciple who was always cold and violent.
The Tang Monk finally spoke again, “The gods of the Heavenly Court have all transcended their tribulations and become upright. For tens of thousands of years, they have not made any major mistakes and have maintained the operation of the world. Although my Mount Numinous has merits, it can not be compared to them. How does killing stop killing? The other party are not evil. Mount Numinous should not have gone to fight for it. The Dao ancestor has set a great calamity, so my disciples can go through it. Even if they all enter the reincarnation, they can offset the great calamity. Why wouldn’t they dare?”
Zhun Ti understood. This meant that the disciples of Mount Numinous could directly go through the tribulation and enter the reincarnation.
To a certain extent, this was indeed the simplest, most effective and fastest way to transcend the great calamity.
If they all died, they might even directly cultivate a saint, and then the Heavenly Court would continue to control the operation of Heaven and Earth. Naturally, there wouldn’t be any problems.
However, how was this what Zhun Ti was willing to see?
Zhun Ti was so angry. The Tang Monk continued, “Buddha sacrificed himself to feed the tiger, and cut off his flesh to feed the eagle. Do we not even dare enter that reincarnation? For the sake of obtaining scriptures, what can ten reincarnations do? It’s just a walk in the mortal world of reincarnation, and it’s a form of tempering!”
Zhun Ti left behind a cold snort and disappeared.
This was actually the power within Mount Numinous that even he could not change.
Some people would do anything for benefits, but some people did not care about these so-called benefits.
Even if the path to becoming a saint was in front of them.
Zhun Ti’s original intention in establishing the doctrine might be very utilitarian, but it had indeed nurtured some talents.
Everyone’s thoughts were actually different.
Even within the sect, it was impossible for them to be united. In the end, there would be all sorts of conflicting thoughts.
When Shao Deng heard that Dao Lord Lu Ya had appeared, he was overjoyed.
He immediately met him. After meeting him, Shao Deng laughed loudly and said, “We haven’t seen each other for so many years. You’re still as elegant as ever!”
Lu Ya also laughed and said, “You are the same. The Chanism’s deputy sect master is now the Western Church’s ancient Buddha. This is greatly beyond my expectations.”
Actually, purely from the perspective of status, it was hard to say who was superior between the two. After all, the Chanism’s deputy sect master was the number one person below the saints.
However, although Shao Deng was called a Buddha, his power was much weaker.
Lu Ya teased and then said seriously, “Shao Deng, I won’t hide it from you. I also want to try for the holy seat. There are many experts in the Heavenly Court. If we work together, we will have a better chance!”
Lu Ya had also thought it through.
Actually, he had been in this star domain for a long time.
He wanted to try and kill quasi-saints, but quasi-saints often didn’t act alone. Occasionally, he would meet a person who was alone. The other party’s ability to escape was strong, and Lu Ya was famous. When the other party saw him, he would often run away as soon as possible, just like the Pondering Arhat and Wen Zhong today. If he killed Wen Zhong, it would be a breeze. If he turned around to kill the Pondering Arhat, the success rate would be much lower. Moreover, once the other party ran away, there was nothing he could do. This caused him to be unable to achieve anything!
Therefore, after thinking about it, he decided to find a side to join. In the end, he chose the Western Church.
This was because he knew that he and Zhao Gongming were mortal enemies. If he joined the Heavenly Court, now that Yun Xiao, Zhao Gongming, and the others were at their peak, he might even suffer revenge!
When Shao Deng heard Lu Ya’s words, he smiled and said, “If you join us, then our Western Church will be like a tiger with wings. Right now, there is one person that we need you to kill!”
“Who?”
“Zhao Gongming!” Shao Deng said in a deep voice, “Zhao Gongming has obtained the Immortal Slaying sword and the Immortal Slaying formation map, so he is already in an invincible position. He is a great enemy of our Western Church, and it is difficult to break through him in a head-on fight. I hope that you can kill this person again with the Spiked Seven Arrow Book!”
Lu Ya narrowed his eyes.
That thing was his trump card.
If he used this divine ability once, it could not be used again for a thousand years!
