Chapter 837 Subtle Connection

In the darkness, Jing Wuzhen, holding the sword of the butcher, swung the sword again.

The sword of the butcher is a ritual instrument for dividing sacrificial offerings, not a killing weapon like the eight-sided heavy sword before.

Sacrifice is the most important part of the sacrifice. It is said that: "Let the prime minister, Zhu, Shi Shuai, and Li surname, offer sacrifices, offerings, jade and silk to the butcher, without any prayers."

People once said: "To take the people of heaven and attack the city of heaven is to assassinate the people of heaven, deprive the position of Zhen Shen, overthrow the Sheji, and kill the sacrifices. This is not the benefit of heaven."

In this sentence, the importance of "killing the sacrifices" is ranked next to "depriving Zhen Shen of his position" and "overthrowing Sheji", which shows its importance.

Sheji, in fact, originally meant "the residence of gods", and the so-called "shrine" is the same. She is the temple of gods, and Ji refers to the five grains, which is a general term for food. The two together refer to the situation in ancient times when gods and humans lived together and people and gods coexisted.

In other words, the sword in front of him no longer divides things in reality, but the power that can kill and sacrifice and divide power.

The demon kings also realized this.

They also realized that Jing Wuzhen's martial arts divine will is not simply bombardment.

This warrior is so treacherous that he actually used a secret method to hide his true divine will, making himself look like a brainless reckless man, but in fact he is rough and delicate.

Her martial arts divine will is not bombardment, but "sanction".

Sanction is divided into two parts.

The violence just now is "judgment". "Judgment" means killing, so there are such terms as "self-judgment" and "judgment", which means killing oneself.

With the power of "judgment", it is the violent bombardment just now, showing unparalleled killing power. This is the "power" necessary for punishment, and it is a way to maintain divine will with violence.

But the most important thing is another meaning.

Control is also called judgment. Things have taste, which can be judged, and it is also called stop. Control and judgment are actually transpositions.

The word "regulation" has a more profound meaning.

Just like the power of the sacrifice divided by the sword, the power of "regulation" is not only killing, but also using killing to regulate everything.

This even has a shadow of humanity, because "regulation" is actually the predecessor of "rules", and even has the term "regulation" and "system".

However, it is a bit too early, and "regulation" is a thing before the coexistence of humans and gods.

However... who still remembers that when humans and gods coexisted, the human race in the world did not have various methods of cultivation, and made many efforts to survive in the wilderness of the ancient times. (For details, see Chapter 257)

The two most important measures are witches and martial arts.

In the wilderness era, the human race declined and lived in the shadow of various gods. There were witches and shamans who mediated between those friendly gods, but there were also warriors who went to attack those unfriendly gods. The martial arts was born from this.

The martial arts refers to the conquest itself, which is the way for the human race to fight against those so-called "enemies".

The shamanic way was the way people at that time communicated with friendly gods.

Although now it seems that friendly gods are not necessarily good, and evil gods that eat people are not necessarily bad, for the human race at that time, survival was the first priority, and good and evil were naturally divided in this way.

Li Qi, who was behind, was also slightly stunned.

When Jing Wuzhen's martial arts divine will was fully unfolded, the breath was very ancient, so ancient that it could be traced back to the beginning, when the human way and the shamanic way were not separated.

At that time, the shamans were the main leaders of the human race, and even the kings of the people had to listen to the advice of the shamans. After all, the shamans were the most educated group of the human race at that time.

And those who assisted the shamans were the warriors at that time.

At the beginning, the earliest group of warriors in the human way were the original "guardians" of the shamans.

And now, I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, a martial arts divine will directly inherited from the ancient warriors, plus Li Qi, the orthodox shaman, happened to be connected together.

Just like how the witches and warriors ran together in the wild land for the human race to find a way to survive under the gods countless billions of years ago.

Although now it is not for the gods, but to fight against the devil.

The swinging of the sword is not open and close, on the contrary, the swinging of this sword is very slow and very "useless".

This is not suitable for fighting at all, only suitable for watching.

However, this sense of ritual is not for others to see.

When slaughtering the sacrifice, the ritualist must clearly perceive that there is a life in his hand that is disappearing. This life has weight, and the ritualist must perceive this weight and bear it.

This is also the origin of the original concept of "cause and effect". Although killing is inevitable, killing itself is still a means that should be respected or even avoided.

For the ancient human race, the intense shock brought by cutting the flesh with a sharp weapon in the sacrificial ceremony is their way of keeping awe of this world.

Of course, humanity no longer cares about such things. Humanity does not believe in retribution, nor does it believe that the lives of all things have weight. The monsters coming out of the assembly line in the slaughterhouse have proved this.

Even the witches and shamans have become contemptuous because of their current power. Although there are still witches and shamans like Zhong Minglou, people like Li Qi, although they cannot be said to kill innocent people indiscriminately, they really cannot be said to have any respect for life.

But in front of Jing Wuzhen, it is not like this.

She took this battle seriously, just like every battle in the past, facing her enemies with an almost pious attitude, and she would feel sad when she killed them.

This is not hypocrisy, it is a necessity.

Killing is necessary in this world, and someone must do it. This is to maintain and open up a new path, but this does not mean that killing is right.

For Jing Wuzhen, attacking the magic path is for greater good, but this does not mean that her killing is just.

Killing is not right in any case, it is just the lesser of two evils.

Therefore, carrying this sin, but still using martial arts to clear certain obstacles and "sanction" certain things in this world is what Jing Wuzhen's martial arts divine will wants to express.

In Li Qi's view, this martial arts divine will is very awkward.

It's like killing someone and then kowtowing to the other person's corpse to apologize.

The person is already dead, what's the point of kowtowing?

However, after all, the paths are different, and everyone's values ​​are different. It is normal to have differences, and understand each other.

Because, this does not hinder the lethality of the Sword of Punishment.

The Demon Dao is not afraid of the Sword of Killing, but it can't avoid the "Slaying Sword".

Nothing else, just because of the "burden" displayed by her martial arts spirit, this heavy but restrained state of mind makes it difficult for the demon thoughts to invade.

The battle lasted for a few seconds, and the three demon kings looked at each other, and then quickly retreated.

They were ready to abandon the Demon King of Heaven and run away.

Because Li Qi's big move has been completed, and it seems to be quite powerful!

The opponent is offering sacrifices to the Buddhas, using the power of the Buddha's heavens in his body to exchange for the real Buddha's energy to come!

The first thing that can be seen is that Li Qi uses the power of the Buddha's heavens to bless the sword of the Slaying Sword, forming an extraordinary restraint on the Demon Dao. The Slaying Sword itself is a method to restrain desires and troubles.

The demon thoughts entered Jing Wuzhen's mind and thoughts.

Cut the ears, eyes, hands, feet, five palaces and hundreds of bones, and shatter them one by one.

However-although it is useful, it is not very useful.

This is just the effort of practicing the form of "killing the sword".

You should know that the ears, eyes, hands, feet, five organs and hundreds of bones of a person, when combined, form a heart.

The heart is the master of the form, but the heart is not outside the form. Every organ and every function of the human body has a possible nature.

If a person can, like the above-mentioned sharp ears and clear eyes, give full play to the things that heaven has given to this body, and give full play to the highest possibility of each function, and make them all reach the extreme, this is called the fulfillment of nature.

In fact, the effort of fulfilling nature is not difficult, it only depends on being able to "practice the form". The so-called practice of form means that a person's body, with a form, must have a nature. People can practice the form given by heaven one by one, and try their best to develop its highest possibility.

People have this form and this heart. Everyone should know and be able to practice the form with the best of heart. If a person is hungry and wants to eat, he must eat.

In other words, it is actually very simple -

For a warrior, the body is the "heart".

If the demons want to invade Jing Wuzhen's 'heart', they have to break her body.

And in front of them, her body is like Mount Sumeru!

At this moment, the Buddha's aura is rising in her body.

Under Li Qi's blessing, all 129,600 acupoints on her body are open, and there is the breath of the Buddha in each acupoint!

The power of the Buddhas that Li Qi had seen in Buddhism, such as the God of Merit, the God of Eloquence, the Lord Brahma, and the God of Dakini, poured into his power.

In the eyes of many demons, they can see that Jing Wuzhen's body is like the reappearance of the sacred mountain! Countless virtual images of Bodhisattvas and Buddhas rise from the acupoints all over the body!

In the acupoints, all the Buddhas are in charge, and the auspicious god wears a flower crown, a heavenly robe, and a necklace around his neck. He is elegant and noble, and he is in the center.

Brahma and Indra came to guard the two hands. Behind each of the two gods, there was a seven-treasure mountain. Five-colored clouds appeared on their heads. There was a six-tusked white elephant in the clouds. The elephant's trunk twisted an agate bottle, and the bottle kept pouring out the sounds of various sentient beings, as if it was in the ear.

Qi and blood gushed out of the head, forming the phantom body of the God of Silva. The six arms held objects, including a fire wheel, a sword, a bow, an arrow, an axe, and a rope. The middle two arms were clasped together, and there were lions, tigers, foxes, jackals and other beasts under their feet.

The lower body saw the God of Precious Light, and the holes were inhabited by Bodhisattvas.

The right hand saw the God of Moon Palace, and the holes were inhabited by real people.

The monks were arranged in a row.

The back was supported by the God of Skanda, who had six heads and twelve arms, holding bows and arrows and riding a peacock.

Under the momentum of the heavens, a pagoda appeared, and inside the pagoda was the Buddha Vairocana, with three faces and eight arms, and the three faces were different.

To be honest, Jing Wuzhen, in cooperation with Li Qi, has evolved to a level that a fourth-grade demon king cannot break.

Warriors are originally the top defense and attack, and now they actively open their bodies to accommodate the Buddhist heavens, and they suppress the demonic energy to the point where they can hardly move.

The demon kings saw that the situation was not good and wanted to escape immediately.

They did not have the dignity of fighting to death. In fact, the demons rarely fought head-on, but always stabbed people from behind. The demon prince was an exception among exceptions.

At this time, it was time to make a decision.

Jing Wuzhen turned his head and looked at Li Qi.

Let the person in charge of thinking decide what to do, should he keep them or let them go?

If they were to stay, they would have to pay a higher price. After all, if they wanted to defeat four orthodox practitioners of the Demonic Path with two against four, they would not be able to do so without any injuries. They still had to leave something behind.

However, Jing Wuzhen was sure that she could kill the three opponents and send them into the reincarnation before she lost her fighting power.

That's right, sending them into the reincarnation, if they wanted to annihilate their true spirits... it was still too difficult. She was only 30% sure that she could destroy the opponent's spirit and soul, but she was 100% sure that she could send them into the reincarnation.

It was so pleasant to cooperate with this witch. Although she didn't know what kind of person he was, she was able to come to the Demonic Path Hot Sand Land to attack these demon kings. It was obvious that he was an upright person and was quick and decisive in fighting.

Although it was clear from the means that the other party was actually a little indecisive, it didn't matter. After all, he was a witch, and I heard that they were all fussy.

There was no perfect person.

Oh, there might be some on the human side, but that kind of perfect person... it was better not to have some flaws.

Jing Wuzhen's mind raced, waiting for Li Qi's reply.

Li Qi, on his part, considered it for a while.

It was not impossible to beat those demon kings to death. In fact, Li Qi did plan to do so at the beginning.

In fact, according to his expectation, one against four, killing all the opponents was also quite certain, at least there was a 90% chance of winning, and the remaining 10% was due to some special small accident.

But even if there was such a small accident, Li Qi could guarantee that he would be fine. Although he might be injured, his body was no longer in the spirit, so what injuries were worth caring about?

However, it seemed unnecessary now.

There was no need for those, it was completely meaningless, and letting the other party go was more in line with Li Qi's future plan.

So, Li Qi waved his hand, signaling a ceasefire, and let the three demon kings leave.

Seeing this, Jing Wuzhen put down his sword, and the blood around him dissipated.

Everything returned to calm.

The Endless Territory was still in darkness. The battle that had just affected many light years was just a faint flash in terms of the vast area outside the territory.

"Li Qi, the demon king has been driven away. What about the demon king in your body?" Jing Wuzhen returned to Li Qi's side.

"It's a small matter, don't worry, the Pure Law was created by the Buddha, he can't get rid of it." Li Qi waved his hand: "Let's talk about other things, such as... Jing Wuzhen, why did you come to deal with the demons?"

"Why?" Jing Wuzhen smiled: "I come here regularly to sweep it, that city makes me feel disgusting, what about you?"

"My daughter is possessed by the devil." Li Qi said so.

"You see, this is the disgusting place, so what about you? After this battle, will you go again? It's fun to fight with you." Jing Wuzhen said.
