Donghuang Ziji

Chapter 747: Trying to Seize the Treasure Bell

"You ignorant child, the Saint King's great Dao is extremely profound and wonderful, and contains boundless and vast Dharma meanings. If we really go against the Saint King's will, we will surely suffer the backlash of his Dao. How can you say that we are betraying him?"

The mysterious light on the Tianren Ding vibrated, and the sound inside it echoed, scolding Chu Tai.

"I said that the three of us are all here, and you still have the nerve to say these things? This fellow Taoist from Taiyi Sect doesn't know that the three of us have been practicing with Master Qingshi for ten thousand years. How can we not know about your twists and turns?"

Among the three Taoists who had appeared earlier, one, a Taoist woman with a pretty face and wearing a Taoist robe that looked like a palace dress and was embroidered with intricate patterns, stepped forward to explain.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, don't listen to his nonsense. Although the Saint Kings have great magical powers, they have different personalities. According to today's moral concepts, there are good and evil ones, some are tyrannical, some are benevolent, and some are laissez-faire. But no matter which kind of Saint King they are, they must be born in response to the times and have the world and all living beings in their hearts. But..."

After a pause, the Taoist Kun shook the bell on his wrist to stop the invisible pressure, and continued: "But the Saint Kings are dead after all. No matter how mysterious the Dao Fruits they left behind are, they are only spiritual objects, not actual individuals. They are also lacking in judgment on many things."

"That's enough. How can we allow people like you from the outside to point fingers at the Saint King Avenue?"

Tianren Ding did not speak, but the other heirs of the Holy King Avenue could not bear to listen, and the previous light of the sun and the moon reappeared, forming a pressure that fell down.

Among the three Taoists, the other young Taoist who was wrapped in a black Taoist robe, had a thin face and a cold aura all over his body. Seeing this, he took a step forward, a sword appeared in his hand, and with a light swing, he cut off the opponent's pressure.

"What's the problem with what my sister said?"

"The Great Dao of the Saint Kings is extremely profound and wonderful. Even if there is a problem with one of them, the Great Dao of the Saint Kings contained in our Central Plains was actually left by one or two Saint Kings. How could there be any omissions in the wisdom of all the Saint Kings? What you are saying now is just that you, the Qingshi lineage, are jealous of us for being able to inherit the Great Dao, or that it is just the anger that Taoist Qingshi felt when he wanted to intervene but was backfired."

The light of the sun was spinning, and a female voice full of pressure was heard.

"I am jealous of you. I am jealous that after you have achieved the third level, you can only hide in the cave and cannot make progress? Or I am jealous that you can enjoy the offerings of all living beings without having to care about the suffering of the people because you can let the Saint King Avenue carry it? Or I am jealous that you have inherited the legacy of the Saint King and obtained the sacred artifact of the country but do not have to perform your duties?"

Zi Yi Kundao chuckled: "These are indeed quite enviable, but it sounds like they don't quite fit your status as the descendant of the Holy King."

As she spoke, she looked at Chu Tai again and said, "There are too many great ways left by the Saint Kings in the past, and many of them are even in conflict. In addition, no great way left by the Saint Kings is complete, so they have taken advantage of the loopholes and used the differences in conditions of different Saint Kings' great ways to allow this group of parasites to live safely until now..."

The Tianren Ding vibrated, and a terrifying pressure descended. Kun Dao in purple took two steps back, the bell in his hand shaking continuously. The young man in black stepped forward, swung the sword in his hand, and layers of sword lights intertwined, constantly cutting off the falling pressure, but he could not stop retreating continuously.

Finally, an old man with white beard, white hair, white robe and holding a wooden staff stepped forward. He lightly tapped the air with his staff, and countless mists of clear air rose up, with green lotuses blooming in it. Only then did the pressure stop.

"Your Highness is also an old man among the second rank, why do you have to embarrass my junior brother?"

"Master Shou, I didn't expect you haven't ascended yet. When I entered the third rank, you were the third rank. Now I have been the second rank for many years, and you are still the third rank. People say that your cultivation level is supported by your lifespan. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems to be true."

The Tianren Ding vibrated slightly, and the voice inside was full of sarcasm.

Taoist Shou didn't care and chuckled, "I took shortcuts in my early years of cultivation and my foundation was not stable, which led to my cultivation being one step slower than others. But cultivation is not about who is better, but who lives longer. Just like the Taoist friends who were with you back then, didn't they all pass away in the end? How did their inheritance happen to fall into your hands? It seems that the Saint King Avenue is not stable either."

Facing the Taoist Shou's secret sarcasm, the owner of the Tianren Ding didn't care, and just said coldly: "You only have this little bit of eloquence left. Tell me, what are you doing here today? If you don't want to help us resist the Junmo, please go back."

As he spoke, the Cauldron of Heaven and Man vibrated, and above the Sky Pillar where the Saint King's Way manifested, countless dragon roars were heard, and countless laws and principles of the Way took shape, and began to repel some power systems that were not those of the Saint King's Way.

The aura of the three Taoists was immediately weakened, and at the same time, the monarch demon's hand that fell from above was also pushed up, leaving only a few traces of the Holy King, and it was difficult to refine the rest. It was also at this time that Chu Tai slightly understood the power in the giant dragon that was competing with the monarch demon's hand.

There were also three treasures. One of them was a seal with nine intertwined dragons on it. There were four faces of saint kings on the four sides of the seal. It was the product of the aggregation of the four saint kings' great ways. It contained the changes of the three talents and four images, the five elements and the six harmonies. Although each was incomplete, when combined together, they still maintained a complete first-class status.

The second is a piece of flint, ancient and simple. The moment Chu Tai saw it, his witch spirit was shaken. It was one of the starting points of the origin of the acquired civilization of living creatures, a treasure that created the first human fire, and the source of the sacrificial fire of the acquired incense, vows and sacrifices. It is the root of the sacred fire that protects thousands of lives and can be called one of the foundations of human civilization.

Although with the decline of the divine way, the mystery of this treasure has dissipated a lot, but it still maintains its first-class status, and its light is very restraining to the dark ideas of humanity of the monarch demon.

The third one was so blurry that Chu Tai couldn't see it clearly. He could only roughly see that it was something like a whip or a stick.

The auras of the three blend together, and even if the holder is not a first-grade cultivator, he can firmly block the Sovereign Demon Avenue and make it difficult for it to continue to erode the Holy King Avenue.

But Chu Tai could also see that this kind of obstruction could not last long. If there was no external intervention, it was inevitable that part of the Saint King Avenue would be taken away by Jun Mo.

The Holy King's successor who was paying attention to him at the moment was obviously also aware of this matter, which was why he had the idea of ​​seizing the Donghuang Bell earlier.

Of course, they have not given up this idea yet. At the moment when the three Taoists were excluded, the Tianren Ding shook and confronted the aura of the Donghuang Bell, making it temporarily unable to move. The rest of the Sun, Moon and Five Elements attacked Chu Tai one after another, blocking the void and trying to keep him.

"Don't think about it!"

Chu Tai hit the Donghuang Bell hard with the hammer in his hand, and a faint sound emerged.

"How can it be!"

There was a cry of surprise from inside the Tianren Ding, and the several people who had taken action one after another were also fixed in mid-air. The bell hammer flew out and hit the sun and the moon hard. With two crisp sounds, the two treasures were damaged again.

Chu Tai continued to strike the Donghuang Bell. The sounds of the bell firmly fixed the sun, moon and five elements that were trying to escape. But when they were about to smash them one by one, a slender divine needle emerged from the void and aimed at Chu Tai's eyebrows.

With a start, he swung the bell hammer upwards, and the two collided, making a crisp sound. Chu Tai knocked the magic needle away and took two steps back, allowing the sun, moon and five elements to escape.

"The successor of the Saint King Avenue can only attack people from behind?"

The divine needle was suspended in mid-air, and the light was flowing around. A somewhat weak male voice sounded: "I don't want to fight with you, but I don't want you to hurt them either."

As he spoke, the man answered the question asked by Tianren Ding earlier.

"Chu Tai inherited Wu Zang's legacy and the fate of Wu Dao and Shinto. If I am not mistaken, most of these fates are condensed in the bell. Although your Tianren Ding contains the wonders of heaven and man and restrains many principles beyond the human way, it was originally an object of worship for the gods. Beyond the human way, there is the Shinto way. Only when gods and humans are united can they be called heaven and man. You are only activating the mystery of Tianren Ding itself, so it is naturally difficult to freeze the bell."

Upon hearing this, the Tianren Ding shook again, and once again fixed the Donghuang Bell, and the surrounding sun, moon and five elements fell again.

This time, the magic needle remained silent.
