………………
Jiaoba, Bi Kang, are two of the four direct disciples of the Demon King. They are peak-level existences and senior masters who are famous in the demon world!
In the past, even if you burned incense, prayed, and begged hard, you might not be able to see such two masters.
At this moment, it would be better not to see him. Being caught red-handed by the other party while sneaking around in secret, it’s so embarrassing not to say anything, it’s just asking for death!
Although there was speculation, once the misfortune was confirmed, Zimu and Ziqian were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were at a loss what to do. Unexpectedly, after the two masters reported their names one after another, another strange voice sounded out——
"I, Jiao Ji in the past life, Ling Qiu in this life..."
There was silence in the cave.
The green dragon on the stone pillar is motionless, just like the relief sculpture of a coiled dragon made by uncanny craftsmanship. But the dragon's eyes that looked back were shining brightly, and the power of the storm was still there.
Zimu and Ziqian were both dumbfounded, fighting with each other; Chen Lianzi stopped retreating and gasped.
The Demon King appears! And what does he mean by saying that he was Jiaoji in his previous life and Lingqiu in this life?
Jiao Ba and Bi Kang were both startled.
On the topaz stone platform, among the white light pillars surrounding it, an old man among the only three figures left slowly opened his eyes and said slowly: "I have been in the wilderness for three hundred and fifty years. After a lifetime of protecting one side, he comes back at the end of his life..." His words were vicissitudes of life and deep, and his expression showed an inexplicable open-mindedness and indifference. He held his long beard with his hand and continued: "I have a mortal body and have faced the wall for hundreds of years, and I have some enlightenment. I have the same mind as the sky but no knowledge, and the same body as the Tao but no body. So I am natural, cultivate my empty energy, and be in harmony with the Tao. First, all worries are left behind, it’s immortal or mortal, so what’s the problem...”
The old man's appearance was somewhat similar, and coupled with his two-foot-long beard, as well as his speech and behavior at this moment, it couldn't be more familiar!
Jiaoba slowly raised his hands, with a face full of respect and expectation, and softly called: "Master..."
Unexpectedly, the old man was completely unaware of the movement around him and was still talking to himself. And what he said was nothing more than what he saw and heard in the wild world, as well as various perceptions and states of mind. Some of them are simple, some are profound, and some are quite extraordinary and unique...
Jiaoba couldn't help but turn around, seeming hesitant.
Bi Kang also stared at the old man for a moment. Seeing this situation, he nodded suddenly and said softly: "It is reported that after cultivating to the third realm of Dongtian, the catastrophe does not end here. If you want to break through Luo Tiansan In this situation, we must overcome the "Nine Disasters", but before the opportunity comes, the disaster is difficult to come. For this reason, Master searched hard for the "Three Emperors Sutra" of Emperor Kui Huangzun, so he realized the "Nine Transformations of Heaven". Dharma, through the reincarnation of the distracted spirit, through the mortal world, and then nine reincarnations, maybe you can overcome the adversity and attain enlightenment..." At this point, he gestured with surprise: "The figure in the four-image and five-element array, They are the result of Master's distraction, each with a lifetime of realm insights, hard-won and extremely extraordinary! And there are only three of them left. I think Master has already accomplished his great work..."
On the other side of the jade platform, the three people had different expressions.
Zimu and Ziqianwu were both as helpless as animals trapped in a cage, each in a state of panic. Chen Lianzi hid behind the two of them, with a hint of joy amidst his shock...
At this moment, the voices on the jade platform suddenly stopped. The figure of the old man suddenly faded away, and turned into an unpredictable energy and headed straight for the stone pillar. In the silence, the stone pillars glowed brightly. Although the coiled green dragon was stagnant, the original power of the Golden Immortal suddenly rose to the late stage of the Immortal Lord. A golden line on its back becomes more and more eye-catching...
Jiao Ba suddenly remembered something and said in shock: "Senior brother reminded me, where did the green dragon come from?"
Bi Kang held his long beard in his hands and admired sincerely: "That is not only the Qinglong, one of the four sacred beasts, but also the king of our dragon clan. If it weren't for Master, how could he have this opportunity..." In his view, Come on, the three intruders are Xiaoxiao's disciples and are not worth mentioning at all. Qinglong must be retained by the master. He was distracted by the activation of the magic circle and returned to his position. Everything is natural!
Jiaoba was a little unwilling and said: "It's an advantage for him! Master's cultivation in the state of distraction is by no means trivial..."
When the old man's figure disappeared, someone spoke in another ray of light not far away: "In the past life, I was respected and proud, roaring everywhere; in the future life, I make a living by farming and studying, and I have a carefree world. I am Wang Sheng, and I have spent forty-eight years in vain. Sitting in the deep valley of the empty mountain, my soul returns here..."
That is the scholar man among the remaining two figures. He looks middle-aged, has three locks of green beard, and is of extraordinary appearance. He said to himself: "I have read poetry and books since I was a child, and I participated in the imperial examination. However, I suffered injustice many times. I became angry. Going far away into the mountains, I gradually realized that there are nine realms, each of which is different..." He behaved calmly, smiled slightly, and said: "There are real interests in the mountains that I have forgotten to explain. This is one of them; Second, the floating life is leisurely, and the cranes are singing for nine days; third, when the fragrance in the furnace disappears, the solitary peak is far above the moon; fourth, the yellow leaves are withered in the deep autumn, and the wind is unclear; fifth, the flowers fall on the flowing water, and the clouds Shadow birds fly over; Sixth, sit alone and no one knows, the lonely moon shines on the cold spring; Seventh, the sound of bells is far away in the deep forest, and the dream is still deep; Eighth, a stringless harp plays, among the red dust and colorful clouds; Nine, sit and watch Beyond heaven and earth, there are immortals and nothings. Haha..."
After some words with far-reaching artistic conception, the middle-aged man's figure faded away and turned into a qi machine to fly away. There was another burst of light up and down the stone pillar, and the coiled green dragon was as motionless as a stone carving. However, his cultivation level increased crazily again, and suddenly he was promoted from the late stage of Immortal Lord to the early stage of Cave Heaven Realm. And in his angry eyes, there seemed to be unbearable pain...
"Oh!" Jiao Ba moved slightly, and couldn't help but booed in surprise, saying: "The work of ten thousand years is just a matter of a day! It seems that what the senior brother said is true. The Qinglong has a close relationship with the master. If it were anyone else, it would only be a matter of time." I'm afraid he might have exploded and died..." Before he could finish his words, he was confused again. Those nine sentences with unclear meanings are the so-called nine realms? Too mysterious...
Bi Kang also breathed a long sigh of relief and nodded with deep understanding.
When you first see Qinglong, you will feel close to him secretly. There is no other, they are of the same origin.
Bi Kang had no intention of saying more and gestured towards the jade platform: "Lingqiu and Wang Sheng, who were previously transformed by Master's distraction, have different experiences, but they have reached the same destination. I benefit a lot from listening to it! I don't know where the last person came from. Where you can have extraordinary insights..."
Sure enough, after the old man and the middle-aged scholar disappeared, the last man in the light opened his eyes in time and said solemnly: "I was reincarnated into a wealthy family in the mortal world. I don't like poetry and calligraphy. I only like to show off my courage." After fighting fiercely and traveling for decades, I entered the Tao through martial arts and dominated the world for another two hundred years. However, I accidentally fell into the plot of a group of junior Qi practitioners, and finally I was a rough man and died. What I gained from profound insights is nothing more than two simple words: cause and effect..."
Jiao Ba and Bi Kang were a little surprised. Those who enter the Tao through martial arts are already supreme beings in the mortal world. And since Zongheng is invincible, how could he fall into the scheme of the younger generation and die? What does the so-called cause and effect mean?
The man had a strong body and an arrogant look. He should have been an arrogant person during his lifetime. With his hands behind his back, he looked indifferently at the Coiling Dragon Stone Pillar in front of him, and said to himself: "I was supposed to be stillborn and reincarnated, but I was saved by a great-grandfather and given the name of Tianjiao. Not only that, he He also left a spiritual secret in my body, which enabled me to cultivate to the innate realm and successfully build the foundation..." He smiled, and then said: "It was the great-grandfather named Lin Yi who gave the Lin family the power to grow stronger. Fundamental, but he gave a Taoist temple a stronger inheritance, but he forgot the principle that desire is hard to satisfy, and this left the source of trouble..."
On both sides of the jade platform, the five people were in inexplicable moods. The great-grandfather after the reincarnation of the Demon King was named Lin Yi. who is he?
"... On the occasion of my breakthrough to Xiantian, I went to Xuanyuan Temple to ask for my great-grandfather's inheritance, but those old guys pushed me away with excuses. I couldn't get my request, so I smashed the gate in anger, and the two families turned against each other!" said the middle-aged man! : "That Lu Yu'er is the most abominable! He is just a small cult leader, but he considers himself the disciple of his great-grandfather, and uses his Qi training skills and status as an elder to injure me, and he even comes to ask questions. It is simply a great shame and humiliation... ...I had no choice but to leave my hometown and threaten to take revenge. Unexpectedly, the news was leaked and others took advantage of it. Not only did the other party destroy Xuanyuan Temple, they also stole the inheritance of my great ancestor... For this reason, I tracked him thousands of miles alone and finally killed him. The chief culprit was actually besieged by the disciples of Xuanyuan Temple and the monks from the imperial court, haha..."
A few short sentences describe all the ups and downs of reincarnation. The middle-aged man laughed again and said: "The Lin family and Xuanyuan Guan can be said to be the great ancestors of prosperity and failure! Back then, he was a foundation-building monk who was precarious, but he often changed the fate of others against the will of heaven, seemingly out of kindness. In fact, it is misleading others. You might as well send him this sentence: "I am a stranger to immortals, but there is no mercy"..." He paused for a moment and then said: "However, it is a coincidence that the great-grandfather gave him the name Tianjiao casually. , It’s a good fate. You know, I come from Tianjiao Valley..." His words gradually faded away, and finally he said: "Winds and rains have their reasons, flowers bloom and bear fruit, and so are all things in heaven..."
The figure of the middle-aged man flashed and instantly turned into a qi machine and flew towards the Coiling Dragon Stone Pillar. In the dazzling light, Qinglong's cultivation level has risen to the level of great achievement in the early stage of Dongtian. The golden line on his back grew wider and wider, reaching a length of three feet, and shimmering with golden light. From a distance, it looked really extraordinary!
But in an instant, the four echoing stone pillars around the cave began to shine brightly, and four different qi jets flew out and converged on the topaz stone pillar in the center. The five colors of light are integrated into one, and the power of the blue dragon is doubled. The cultivation level reaches another level, reaching the perfection of the early stage of the cave. But the nine light pillars on the jade platform dimmed one by one and gradually dispersed...
Jiao Ba and Bi Kang were staring at the Panlong Stone Pillar, but they suddenly noticed something.
On the other side of the jade platform, there are no people. Those three cunning men actually took the opportunity to escape!
Jiaoba snorted, waved his big hand, and jumped up quickly. Bi Kang understood, and both of them flew over the jade platform, and in an instant they were submerged into the opposite stone wall.
At the same time, a light flashed in the dark passage, and then the figures of three people appeared. Among them, Chen Lianzi let go of his hands and said helplessly: "Let's get to know each other and do our best. From now on, you and I will each settle on our destiny..."
Zimu and Ziqian thought they were doomed, but they didn't expect that Chen Lianzi still had a back-up plan. They couldn't help but be overjoyed and hurriedly thanked them: "My fellow Taoist, thank you for your help. I will never forget this kindness..." Before they finished speaking, a ray of light disappeared suddenly. , the other party only left a weird smile, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The two looked at each other in shock, not daring to delay, and then rushed along the passage. Not long after he was about to leave, a cold snort came: "Huh! Where can I escape..."
When the five people present left one after another, the cave finally quieted down. The four stone pillars around had already returned to their original state. Even the yellow jade stone pillar in the center was silent, only the blue dragon hovered above it with extraordinary magic!
Just at this moment, a ban several dozen feet away was quietly opened, and a strong man with a short beard emerged from it. After looking around, he turned to the Panlong stone pillar and shouted: "Brother, don't mess with the pillar..." He seemed to remember something, and couldn't help laughing triumphantly: "Ha...haha! The boss turned out to be the ancestor of the demon king..."
