Chapter 1384 Zhenwu Proves His Way, Jade Emperor Helps
"The fight between these two people is probably because of the two enlightened people, King Xue and Emperor Zhenwu!" Pei Xuanjing's understatement fell on the ears of Pang Hong and others, which was deafening.
The Lord of Great Xue has preached the truth!
Emperor Zhenwu proves the truth!
Someone else wants to prove the Tao Lord. If you include Zhao Baiyang and the others, this is the fourth and fifth Tao Lord who will appear next.
It was truly a glorious and prosperous age. It would have taken hundreds of years for true immortals to attain enlightenment, but five of them appeared in just a few years.
"Will Lord Xue and Emperor Zhenwu both attain enlightenment?" Pang Hong murmured to himself with a complicated look on his face.
Although they are not the same generation in terms of real generation, in fact, in terms of strength and status in the world, they are actually on the same level.
Everyone is still in the realm of the Sixth Heavenly Realm of True Immortality, starting to touch the threshold of Dao Lord, and is a little short of the opportunity to attain enlightenment.
Pang Hong believed that he was not inferior to them, and he also believed that he would become enlightened sooner or later.
When Zhao Baiyang, the Demon Lord of Purgatory, and the Demon Lord of All Beasts attained enlightenment, he could still find reasons to say that these people had found a good opportunity. After all, trapping and killing Buddhist arhats to plunder their heritage and perfect themselves was full of huge risks. People had attained enlightenment. Nothing.
And now these three are seriously injured and in retreat, which makes Pang Hong think that these three were eager for success. Although they gained something, they also paid a huge price, which was nothing.
But now, in a short period of time, news came out that the two kings, King Xue and Emperor Zhenwu, were trying to prove the Tao Lord. It must be said that it was a big blow to Pang Hong.
"The Great Lord Xue and the Great Emperor Zhenwu are preaching, and the Great Emperor Ziwei is protecting these two." Pang Hong said calmly as he talked about the situation he perceived.
"Ah, these two people actually got involved with Emperor Ziwei? Lord Huo Dexing wants to stop these two from preaching. Is it because he is afraid that the cooperation between the two parties will pose a threat to himself." Wan Fayi also felt a headache. Fog.
His main focus recently has been on the affairs of Buddhism and the Heretic Alliance. He must focus on delivering resources to the Heretic Alliance and does not care too much about these things.
It's just the Lord of Xue Kingdom, but how could Emperor Zhenwu cooperate with Emperor Ziwei? Didn't Zhenwu Sect also have friendship with their Shenxiao Sect? Why didn't the other party ask the Patriarch to protect the law? Could it be said that the Patriarch rejected this matter?
Seeing Wan Fayi's confused expression, Pei Xuanjing smiled but said nothing. ,
Yu Zhenzi on the side coughed lightly and said: "During this period, Emperor Ziwei has had a lot of contact with Lord Daxue, but you haven't paid attention to it. For Lord Daxue, if he wants to prove himself as a Taoist, he naturally needs someone to protect him. Emperor Ziwei offered him an olive branch, and he naturally did not refuse."
"Is it so easy for Emperor Ziwei and Lord Xue to cooperate? Do both parties have a basis for trust?" Wan Fayi was puzzled.
Although the powerful Daojun will not break his promise easily, but this is not only the guardian of the law, but also the following series of things. How can the Lord Xue cooperate with Emperor Ziwei so easily?
"You were born relatively late, so you don't understand some things. When Emperor Ziwei had not yet become the Imperial Master and was still in Tianji Pavilion, he was in charge of a branch of Tianji Pavilion located within the Great Xue Dynasty. These two The friendship between you doesn't last for a day or two," Yu Zhenzi explained to him.
Emperor Ziwei was born in the Tianji Pavilion. He had a close relationship with the Lord of Xue. He provided a lot of help to the Lord of Xue through Tianji Pavilion. If it were not for the fact that Tianji Pavilion insisted on neutrality, I am afraid that this man would have received the gift from the Lord of Xue. I was given the title of nobility.
Although there was contact between the two parties later, there was a gap between them. Especially after Emperor Ziwei became the Dao Lord, and Lord Daxue was proud of himself, the contact between the two parties decreased, but the cooperation never stopped.
The current situation is changing, and Emperor Ziwei also lacks reliable allies. He realizes that the Jade Emperor is unreliable, or that only the Jade Emperor can be relied on if he has enough strength, so he wants to find new allies.
After searching around, I found that my old friend was still reliable, so I took the initiative to show my goodwill and brought out a lot of things to help the Lord of Daxue to certify Daojun, so that when waiting for the future, the two sides can become allies and move forward and retreat together.
After all, in addition to the Great Xue King himself, the Great Xue Dynasty under his command is also a powerful force and is definitely a powerful ally.
"So that's it." Wan Fa suddenly realized it, and at the same time reminded himself in his heart that he would still have to spend some effort to understand the origins between the various forces and the powerful.
Otherwise, when you are dealing with some things in the future and cannot figure out the relationship between some forces and the strong, it will be really easy to make a joke.
"However, there are gains and losses. Nothing is only good or bad. The cooperation between Emperor Ziwei and Lord Xue will gain powerful allies, but it will also anger his opponent, Lord Huodexing even more." Pang Hong also said He added in a loud voice. At this moment, he also reacted and regained his mentality.
Master often says that Tao practice means cultivating the mind and self. Everything you have comes from yourself, not from outsiders. Tao is to follow your own path, not to be cultivated for others to see. Don't let external things affect you.
Others have attained enlightenment because they have reached the realm. If you have not attained enlightenment, you have not yet attained the truth. You cannot imitate and follow others in a hurry because of what others have done, thereby losing yourself. This is a mistake.
Pang Hong, who had recovered his composure, heard Yu Zhenzi talking about the cooperation between the two and said, "If the original power struggle between Huode Xingjun and Ziwei Emperor could still have room for compromise, playing the game of "one follows orders but not announcements", although he cannot completely control the stars, he can still call them, then now the two sides really can't compromise."
"Huode Xingjun and Daxue Guozhu are old enemies. Their competition has never stopped for so many years. Originally, Ziwei Emperor and Huode Xingjun were enemies, and now with the addition of Daxue Guozhu, this... But it really adds fuel to the fire. "
Yu Zhenzi said faintly, his tone full of the idea of watching the fun: "Of course, these are all our thoughts. Maybe Ziwei Emperor didn't want to compromise and must take down Huode Xingjun? After all, he had to compromise when he was trying to make ends meet. Now that he has stood up and turned against Tianji Daojun, he still has to compromise. Isn't it a waste of time to turn against him! "
"Then it's not surprising that the two sides are fighting now, but it's justified. If I were Huode Xingjun, I would definitely not tolerate it. "Pang Hong said with a sneer.
After saying this, Pang Hong looked at Pei Xuanjing again and asked, "It's not surprising for the Great Xue State Lord to get together with the Purple Star Emperor, but it's puzzling for Master Zhenwu to get together with the other party. Didn't Master Zhenwu look for you, Master?"
Some cultivators of the Great Xue Dynasty and their Shenxiao Sect may have had some friendship, but later because of the manipulation of the Great Xue State Lord, the friendship between the two sides had long been consumed. Even before the Conferred God War, the two sides were strangers.
There has been no special exchanges between the Great Xue Dynasty and the Shenxiao Sect for so many years. At most, there are some very normal transactions.
So when the Great Xue State Lord was certified as a Taoist, it was normal for him to choose to get close to the Purple Star Emperor and seek his help. Pang Hong was not surprised at all, and it was even surprising that the other party came to Pei Xuanjing.
On the contrary, it was the Great Emperor Zhenwu. This uncle had a close relationship with the master. The original Daoist alliance, the seizure of the world's power, and the later Zhenwu Sect's plan to replace gods with humans were all completed with the help of the master.
Uncle Qingxu was able to ascend to the position of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, in addition to his own strength and achievements, but also with some help from the master.
The cooperation between the Zhenwu Sect and the Shenxiao Sect has never been cut off over the years. Uncle Qingyangzi has been in charge of many affairs of the Taoist Academy until now. It can be said that the friendship between the two parties is self-evident, and they are originally in the same camp.
In Pang Hong's opinion, if the Great Emperor Zhenwu wants to certify the Dao Lord, the first person to look for must be his own master, and with his master's style of doing things, nine out of ten will not refuse this matter.
But now the news that the Great Emperor Zhenwu certified the Dao Lord, Pang Hong and Yu Zhenzi don't know, which is a bit strange.
"He came to me, but he didn't ask for my help. He said that the Jade Emperor invited him and promised to provide some things to help him become a Taoist. After thinking about it, I agreed." Pei Xuanjing said.
As Pang Hong said, since the Great Emperor Zhenwu wants to become a Taoist, the first person he wants to seek help from must be Pei Xuanjing. This is true both emotionally and logically.
However, some things are not as simple as they seem.
If the Great Emperor Zhenwu has reached the limit of his own realm and has reached a state of natural success, and just needs Pei Xuanjing's protection, then it is just a piece of cake for Pei Xuanjing to help him protect the law.
But if the Great Emperor Zhenwu's own realm is still a little short, and he needs some opportunities and some resources to become a Taoist, can he let Pei Xuanjing provide these resources at this time?
Not to mention whether Pei Xuanjing is willing to give it to him, even the Great Emperor Zhenwu himself is embarrassed to ask for it.
It is so difficult to prove the Dao Lord. Even Dao Lords cannot guarantee that they can cultivate a Dao Lord. All they can do is to give some help and increase their confidence.
But if a True Immortal Sixth Heaven strongman can increase his confidence in proving the Dao Lord, no matter what it is, it means priceless, and even this value is immeasurable.
With the foundation of Shenxiao Sect, whether there is such a thing, nine out of ten should have it.
But even if Shenxiao Sect has it, why should Shenxiao Sect give it to Zhenwu Emperor, and what should he take out in exchange?
It is just because of the so-called allies and the support of the so-called Dao Lord power.
If it is other forces, it may be possible, but Shenxiao Sect does not lack these. If there are only these things, it is not enough.
Simply put, if Zhenwu Emperor or even Zhenwu Sect cannot take out such things, he will not speak.
Speaking rashly will only hurt the friendship between each other and put Pei Xuanjing in a dilemma.
Pei Xuanjing is not alone, he also has disciples. Everything in the Shenxiao Sect has developed well under his protection, but it is also the result of countless disciples' efforts and even their lives.
Can Pei Xuanjing ignore the interests of many Shenxiao disciples and give these things to outsiders in exchange for something they already have and do not lack?
If the situation of heaven and earth changes in the future, when the Shenxiao Sect faces a crisis and lacks the support of the Dao Lord, these things can be taken out to help the Zhenwu Emperor to prove the Dao Lord, so that many Shenxiao sect cultivators can still accept it.
But at this time, many Shenxiao disciples cannot accept it, and Pei Xuanjing has no way to do it.
But for the Great Emperor Zhenwu, he could not wait any longer. His peers were becoming Dao Lords one after another, and the catastrophe was about to come. Even he himself felt a great sense of urgency.
He also shouldered a heavy responsibility. His combat power and whether he could become Dao Lord were related to the development and growth of Zhenwu Sect. He could not rely on Shenxiao Sect for everything.
Even if Pei Xuanjing was there, as long as Pei Xuanjing stood at the end, Zhenwu Sect could be preserved and even benefit.
But in that case, what was the difference between Zhenwu Sect and other vassal forces of Shenxiao Sect? What independence did they have? They might as well be annexed.
Zhenwu Sect was a large immortal sect, but it was different from some large immortal sects. Other large immortal sects had never reached the peak from their infancy to the present. Even if they had ambitions in their hearts, they could accept becoming vassals for realistic considerations.
But Zhenwu Sect is different. Before the world was revived, Zhenwu Sect was the state religion of the Ming Dynasty, the holy land of Taoism, and one of the leaders between heaven and earth. They had seen the most peak scenery.
This kind of pride of the strong can be said to be a kind of motivation and spirit of Zhenwu Sect, which inspired them to fight to the death rather than reach the peak. If they lose these, what is the difference between them and those salted fish immortals.
Just like Xuantian Sect now has far more than everything it once had, but why are Xuantian Daojun of Xuantian Sect and many true immortals still planning? It is also because they have experienced the feeling of the peak, are unwilling to sink, and want to climb to the peak again.
In the era of great contention, it is the time when many forces are reshuffled. Even those originally salted fish immortals have the ambition to break the pattern and go to the next level. How can Zhenwu Sect be willing to miss such an opportunity?
What others give is not as good as what you get by yourself.
Moreover, even if they are blessed by the Shenxiao Sect, what they get is limited. On the contrary, if they can be certified as Daojun earlier, they will have the opportunity to gain more and ascend to a higher position in the next great struggle. This is something that the entire Zhenwu Sect cannot give up. (End of this chapter)
