Chapter 80 The Day of Punishment

Yu Chengzi was stunned for a moment, then finally sighed: "Finally, you noticed it."

"It's not difficult to guess." Tang Jie replied: "I don't really believe that the Immortal Emperor did nothing during the Hongmeng Tribulation."

Yes, it is indeed not difficult to guess.

Even Tang Jie can activate the Starry Sky Road, allowing the Qixia Realm to eliminate the demons in the process and continue to grow and develop. Tang Jie absolutely does not believe that the Immortal Emperor's achievements stop at the elimination of the invading demons.

This was something the Immortal Emperor had done more than 10,000 years ago, and even launched a counterattack at that time. So why is the current Immortal Emperor weaker than then?

Therefore, the Immortal Emperor's current "inaction" is just an appearance. The real Immortal Emperor must have already had his own plan to exterminate demons.

This was further confirmed after Tang Jie "retrieved" various decisions made by Yu Chengzi before - he was preparing for the expedition.

The only question is, why did Yu Chengzi hide this?

After this plan, what other plans does he have?

This was something Tang Jie couldn't see through.

But vaguely, he felt that everything was not disconnected.

At this moment, Yu Chengzi said: "You know it, you know it. Yes, it won't be long before I lead my troops into the demon world. Ten thousand years ago, I could enter the demon world, and now I can enter the demon world again and kill a demon." Rivers of blood flowed.”

Tang Jie said calmly: "Then what? After a battle, we found that Hongmeng Realm has unlimited territory, barren mountains and rivers, poor resources, overwhelming demonic energy, and thorns every step of the way. After a series of bloody battles, although countless demons were killed, In the end, it was discovered that the demons were inexhaustible, and they could only return with a large number of casualties. However, after three thousand years of cultivation, the demons' power has grown again. Everything... is the same as in the past, nothing. Variety."

Yu Chengzi's face darkened: "Tang Jie, what do you mean by this?"

Tang Jie replied: "Nothing, I just feel that entering the demon world is a useless thing. It can neither wipe out the demons nor bring back many valuable resources. If it is just to vent your anger, it is meaningless, not the Immortal Emperor That’s what should be done.”

Yuchengzi said: "To eliminate demons and protect the Tao, this is the law of heaven, this is the meaning, how can it be covered up by great gains and losses?"

Tang Jie laughed: "You'd better lie to others.

If I remember correctly, on the day you are reborn, Heaven will use the hands of the Three Saints and others to kill you. Heavenly justice? If you followed the laws of heaven, why did they punish you that day? "

Yu Chengzi was speechless.

Tang Jie said: "Go to Hongmeng Realm... because there is a chance for you to transcend the way of heaven, right?"

In the sea of ​​consciousness, a storm suddenly arises!

Yu Chengzi stared at Tang Jie without blinking, and then said after a while: "How did you see it?"

"You are not a person who does meaningless things." Tang Jie replied: "Speaking of which, I have been surprised by one thing from the beginning. What you pursue has always been to transcend the way of heaven. Logically speaking, you should not pursue it like this. You are in love with power, and you should cultivate with a pure heart. But the first thing you did after your rebirth was to rebuild the royal court and shape the immortal army. It didn't look like you were pursuing the way of heaven at all. At that time, I was surprised, could it be that you were dormant for thousands of years? Zai, is it just to continue to be the Immortal Emperor after enlightening the Twelve Great Paths? Then what's the point of giving up the throne and dormant for ten thousand years? "

Yu Chengzi nodded: "Yes, my biggest mistake was to expose my purpose from the beginning."

Since Yu Chengzi's purpose is to understand the way of heaven and transcend it, then everything he does must serve this purpose. Under the premise that the answer has been known for a long time, it is actually the easiest thing to deduce the result backwards. Poor Yu Chengzi is still covering up, but he doesn't know that his secret is like a layer of window paper in Tang Jie, which can be broken by a poke.

The only thing Tang Jie didn't know was what secrets there were in Hongmeng Realm that could help Yu Chengzi understand the way of heaven. This was something he couldn't analyze, and Yu Chengzi wouldn't give him any chance.

At this moment, looking at Yu Chengzi's angry face, Tang Jie knew that he would probably get nowhere if he asked again, so he said: "I came to you not for this matter, but I just thought of it accidentally and said the last sentence. You It doesn’t matter what you do, as long as it doesn’t interfere with me, it has nothing to do with me.”

Yu Chengzi looked a little better: "Then what are you doing here?"

"I just want to ask, how many years ago was the specific date when you faked your death and went into hibernation?"

Yu Chengzi didn't expect Tang Jie to ask this question. He was stunned for a moment, thought about it and finally answered: "About eleven thousand years ago..."

Eleven thousand years ago?

At that time, the Nine Difficulties Monk was not born yet, Tang Jie thought to himself.

In this case, it should have nothing to do with Yu Chengzi.

At this moment, he responded casually and said: "I know, thank you for letting me know."

As he was about to hibernate again, he suddenly thought of something and asked again: "By the way, when did the military leader destroy the royal court?"

Yu Chengzi obviously didn't like this topic, and he snorted and said: "I had already entered reincarnation at that time, how could I know? But I heard from my former subordinates that they have been looking for me for a thousand years. I think it was already a thousand years later. ”

Thousands of years later? Tang Jie was shocked.

If you want to sum it up, it is quite similar to the Nine Difficulties Changes.

He asked: "Is there a specific date for the change in the royal court?"

Yu Chengzi was confused: "Why do you ask this?"

"I just want to know some old history, maybe it can clear up some doubts in my mind."

Yu Chengzi thought for a while, then withdrew from the sea of ​​consciousness, raised one hand, and fired out a burst of fire.

The fire light jumped, and a person's face appeared, it was the Holy Mother of the West. She bowed far away to the Immortal Emperor: "What is your call for, Your Majesty?"

"Linglong, you personally participated in the battle when Li Jiuyang destroyed the Royal Court. Do you still remember the specific date now?"

The Holy Mother of the West obviously didn't expect that Yu Chengzi would ask about this matter. She was obviously stunned. After thinking for a moment, she said: "At that time, I practiced every day and rarely paid attention to the external world. Time flew by. It was just a passing cloud to me. I really didn't know. As for the specific date, I guess no one would care even if I asked others. However, on the day Li Jiuyang attacked, the way of heaven appeared and killed the military leader. Later generations were ignorant and saw strange phenomena in the sky, and the fairy court was broken, and stars fell from the sky. Court, some people call it the Day of Punishment.”

Day of Punishment?

Tang Jie was shocked.

Yes, when the military leader destroyed the royal court, he disturbed the law of heaven and the wheel.

Strange phenomena occur in the sky and are recorded among the people.

That day itself was a very special day!

After understanding this, Tang Jie realized it all at once, thanked Yu Chengzi, and went into hibernation.

Watching Tang Jie's consciousness disappear and disappear into his own sea of ​​consciousness, Yu Chengzi's face turned gloomy.

After a long time, he said: "Let you be proud for a while longer."

He knew that Tang Jie would hear these words, but he still said them, which shows his hatred for Tang Jie.

——————————————

Qixia Realm.

Opening his eyes, Tang Jie said, "I have a clue. Let Zi Xi come see me."

After a moment, Tang Zixi appeared in front of Tang Jie and bowed to Tang Jie Xu Miaoran: "The child has seen his father and mother."

Tang Jie waved his hand: "No courtesy. Zi Xi, there is something I want to arrange for you to do."

Tang Zixi replied: "Father, just ask."

"I need you to go to the Great Buddha Kingdom of the West to investigate the Nine Difficulties."

Tang Zixi was surprised: "Didn't my father already know about the situation of the Nine Difficulties Demon Monk?"

"I want to be more specific, including when he was born, his birthday, his place of birth, habits, personality, hobbies, as well as his various abnormal behaviors before and after he became a demon. All the details, everything!"

Tang Zixi looked at her father in surprise: "All the information about him?"

"That's right. I want the information that the monks know. Even the information that the monks don't know...I want it too!" Tang Jie answered word for word.

Tang Zixi understood what Tang Jie meant and nodded: "The child understands what the father means. I wonder how much time the father will give the child?"

"The sooner the better... I have a feeling that there is not much time left for me."

When he said this, Tang Jie's voice was low.

Although at present, the Immortal Emperor should have nothing to do with the Nine Difficulties, everything that happened at this stage of history always made Tang Jie feel that there was an invisible thread connecting everyone, which Tang Jie could not ignore.

Tang Zixi bent down deeply: "My child understands and will definitely live up to his father's trust!"

As he spoke, he backed away.

Watching Tang Zixi leave, Xu Miaoran looked at her husband with some worry: "You just sent Xi'er out like this? Aren't you afraid that she will follow in Yu'er's footsteps?"

Tang Jie knew that Tang Xuanyu's disappearance had dealt a huge blow to Xu Miaoran, so much so that when he saw that his daughter was about to go out on a mission, he immediately became uneasy.

Tang Jie comforted her and said: "When the child grows up, he will have to go out for a while. The adventure I am talking about is not a journey in Qixia Realm without wind and waves under our care, but a journey that is beyond my power. They rely on their own wisdom and strength to survive. Only by experiencing those can they truly grow."

"But Yu'er..."

"There is no but. Didn't Zi Xi say that? Yu'er is still alive. He is just temporarily trapped somewhere and cannot leave. But believe me, he will not be trapped forever. One day, he will Appear yourself before me.”

"Why are you so sure?" Xu Miaoran asked.

"Just because he is my son, Tang Jie!" Tang Jie replied confidently: "Zi Xi's past feelings and Yu'er's space ability mean that Yu'er and Meng'er are unlikely to be trapped. Somewhere in the Jedi. If they are not trapped in the Jedi, the only thing that can prevent them from returning now is a powerful existence. The Hongmeng Demon Clan is not someone who likes to imprison prisoners. Since they have captured them for ten years, Not killing...that can only mean one thing, that is, he knows their identities."

Xu Miaoran understood: "Tang Jie's son and apprentice are still worth some money. But...why haven't you contacted us even after ten years?"

"Maybe the time has not come yet. Don't worry, as long as the other party feels that the time has come, they will naturally appear." Tang Jie replied leisurely: "I am more interested in who captured Yu'er. Speaking of which, it can make Bing Bing Huang couldn't find Yu'er in ten years, and he was able to trap Yu'er in the Dao Dao space. He also knew the identity of Tang Jie, and captured my Tang Jie's son... There must not be many such demons in Hongmeng Realm, right?"

Xu Miaoran was shocked: "Could it be..."

Tang Jie sighed: "Yes or no, I can't be sure. But I know that some debts... always have to be repaid."
