Becoming a god starts from planting a Bodhi tree.

Chapter 353 Gold Coins Exploded, Old Dengs

Listening to Qinglian Laodeng's story of reminiscing about the past, Ji Jingqiu's thoughts also flew away.

After he unified all the sects, he consulted many ancient books, learned about the events of that era from various perspectives, and explored the grievances and love affairs between the Seven Marshals and other predecessors.

In the early days of the Federation, there were constant disputes and a strong martial spirit. At that time, martial arts had no system at all.

Nowadays, "building a powerful body" is simple and can be done with money, but in that era, it was the first insurmountable obstacle for the Federation warriors.

Because of their congenitally weak constitutions, it is difficult for warriors to lay the foundation for martial arts.

Therefore, in that era, warriors needed some "luck" and relied on the gifts from the ocean of the mind to move to the next level.

The various skills currently available were deduced step by step by the warriors of that era based on ancient texts and actual practice.

Many people even inexplicably achieve success and then reverse the process.

It was an era of prosperity, freedom, but also an era of chaos.

The uncertain times, the struggle for interests, the scramble for territory... made the relationships between the hundreds of clans complicated, and many people formed irreconcilable hatreds out of dozens or even hundreds of years of grievances.

This is also the most troublesome problem for the Seven Marshals to re-establish the federal order.

How to resolve a life-and-death feud?

According to various biographies, the incident ultimately fell on Master Mu's head.

The world does not know what method Master Mu used, only the parties involved know it. However, in the biographies left by the founders of various martial arts schools, some people said with emotion that only Mu Shitian, who has adhered to the principle of not killing throughout his life, is qualified to do such a thing.

Finally, all parties in the federation began to put aside their hatred and move towards peace and tranquility.

Thinking back to the period recorded in ancient books, Ji Jingqiu sometimes felt absent-minded.

The few words recorded in those books are past history, which should have ended completely, but now with the return of certain people, it has reappeared vividly before the world.

"I studied the history of the Federation and found that time is really terrible." Ji Jingqiu suddenly said, "It's only been a few hundred years of chaos, but it's so chaotic and complicated. How terrible would those strong people who have been tempered for millions or tens of millions of years be?"

Taoist Qinglian said calmly:
"For a true saint, a retreat lasts for a million years, because every million years there is a catastrophe."

"Many people practice martial arts for their entire lives, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of years, but their lives may not be one tenth as exciting as those guys. The journey of the soul may not be one thousandth as long as a lifetime."

"So Ji Jingqiu, you need to cultivate your mind."

"in addition……"

"You have to understand one thing, not everyone is so lucky to meet so many 'opponents' worth competing and chasing for a lifetime."

"A good opponent sometimes determines your future height."

……

……

In the virtual sea constructed by endless void.

Lightning shattered the void, and a golden figure stepped into the illusion. The figure stood in the vast realm, surrounded by chaotic mist, wearing an imperial crown on his head. As his eyes opened and closed, the small world in front of him exploded like an ocean!

The heaven and earth collapsed, and this plane of the world went into emptiness in a short time, and finally returned to an infinite point.

The figure raised his hand, froze the point where the world was collapsing, and then walked into it.

After him, one after another, majestic figures like supreme gods, with endless ancient meaning, stepped in.

Walking into the origin, there is a lake in the center. Every drop of water in the lake contains tremendous energy that is enough to drown and tear apart the gods and humans. It is similar to the strange place under the Tiansheng Lake, but far less huge and magnificent.

By the lake, the first man who came in, wearing an imperial crown, stood with his hands behind his back and spoke calmly.

"This origin can still support three days, which is enough for us to hold talks. Even if Mu Shitian were still alive and it was as mysterious as Daoyi said, he would not be able to follow the cause and effect line to inquire about our discussion today."

"Daoyi didn't come?"

"He said that he owed Qinglian too much karma debt and needed to pay it off before the first catastrophe."

A blurry figure, but one that seemed to be sitting high in the Ninth Heaven, appeared by the lakeside. It spoke like thunder, shaking the water in the lake:

"Are you sure that the Dao Fruit is on Qinglian?"

"No."

"Can't the Heavenly Mystery Realm calculate it?"

"Fellow Daoist, you are joking. This Dao Fruit involves the highest causal realm in this realm. Even if the founder of the Tianji Realm returns and breaks through to the True Saint level, he still can't calculate it."

A man with his sleeves fluttering as if filled with the fresh breeze of the world said.

Knowing that he had said something wrong, the man who had just disappeared into the chaotic mist was silent for a moment, frowned and said:
"Could it be that we can only watch this person come and go as he pleases, but cannot do anything to him?"

Someone on the side said coldly, "So what if you let him do something? Are you so narrow-minded?"

"I don't care about Qinglian. I care about the young people around him. Since the decision has been made, we should cut the weeds and root them out as soon as possible. There is no point in letting the seeds take root and sprout."

A being said indifferently, his body was surrounded by stars in the sky.

The person who spoke earlier glanced at this person and said, "Instead of worrying about a young celestial being, you should worry about the Great Sun Ancient God who is about to return."

"Well, there is no point in fighting." A female spirit with a beautiful figure and standing in the hazy kingdom of God interrupted, "We all have the same goal, and there should be no disagreement before the end of the road."

After a brief silence, someone suddenly said:

“The five pillars of the past may not have failed, they just didn’t work.”

Another shook his head and said, "Whether it works or not, this road is too difficult and takes too much time."

"But I think this is the orthodox way. There is no shortcut at this point. What we call wasting time is taking one step at a time."

"Orthodoxy? You said He Donghuang was the orthodoxy in the past, but who has followed this path so far?"

The topic mentioned He Donghuang.

A man carrying a longbow said in a deep voice:
"I still haven't figured out why this person failed to break through back then. Was it simply a failure to break through, or was it related to the Four Demons?"

"This time, we must be on guard against the hidden tricks this person may have left behind. His robbery weapon is still suppressed deep within the Federation."

"It's just a robbery weapon. No matter how sharp the weapon is, it's useless without someone to control it." A man with a black gold staff on his back said disdainfully, "Not to mention that the robbery weapon is still suppressing the nightmare. If they dare to move it, they will be attacked from both sides!"

The being carrying the longbow suddenly said, "I still feel something is wrong. I need to investigate further."

After saying this, without paying any attention to the crowd, this person left the origin of the destruction and condensation of this plane on his own.

Ignoring this person, I left first.

Everyone present here is a top figure in their respective worlds. Even if they are at the same level, no one can interfere with the will of others.

They appeared here because they had the same goal and temporarily united.

"Since the topic has returned to the Yanhuang Federation, let's discuss this matter first."

"Even though Qinglian came forward, he may not be able to win over a few allies. At most, they will not help each other."

"You are wrong. Do you really think his target is us? It's those ancient gods!"

"The five pillars are about to return, and those ancient gods are also awakening, such as the two in the Sun Palace and the Moon Palace. These are the people that the Yanhuang Federation is really trying to win over."

"The Heavenly Mystery Realm cannot calculate these ancient beings."

"Times have changed. Even if all these ancient gods return, what can they do? We have already reached the realm of true saints. What is there to fear?"

"Even if the Yanhuang Federation convinces those gods, it is nothing more than fighting against the Four Demons. We can stay out of this matter and let the two sides decide the winner before we end it." "I'm afraid the Four Demons have the same idea."

"The four demons are terrifying. The erosion of the dark sea has become more and more serious recently. Wu Zhou really deserves to die."

"We must prepare a retreat plan. Otherwise, if we fail to break through and this realm is invaded by the four demons, we will have no room for maneuver."

"When it comes to breakthroughs, we should move forward courageously! How can we..."

The ideas of the saints collide here, causing huge waves.

Energy so violent that it was violently surging was firmly trapped in the lake, without spilling out at all.

"Okay, why are you arguing again?" The man wearing the imperial crown frowned and said, "The disciples in the Yanhuang Federation have found out that the Yanhuang Federation is trying to transform the four guardian stars into battlefields."

"Haha, it seems that they do have a lot of backup plans and are not prepared to rely entirely on the suppression of the universe." Someone sneered.

In their view, no matter how much preparation the Yanhuang Federation makes, it will be a futile struggle.

After all, during its heyday, the Yanhuang Federation had only two True Saints.

And there are more than seven people gathered here today to plot transcendence.

Not to mention other secretive entities with their own agenda.

When the four demons invade the universe, it will be the first catastrophe of the awakening of the universe, and those existences hidden in the dark will surface one by one.

"Is the Yanhuang Federation preparing to hunt down the Four Demons, or is it preparing to... hunt down us?"

“Unless they team up with the Four Demons,” someone chuckled.

"Since you are not prepared to deal with Qinglian and that young man, then you must be prepared to defeat that young man in the universe. At least, the disciples of Tiandi Xuanmen have already failed."

Hearing this, the vague figure that seemed to be in the sky snorted coldly.

A figure shrouded in chaotic mist said calmly: "It doesn't matter. Someone will come forward and take this boy down when the time comes."

"Who? The other families' divine bans?" Someone shook his head and said, "I don't think it's possible."

"This time, Tiandi Xuanmen and Wanjieshan took action so that the Tianji world can figure out this kid's trump card more clearly. By then, each family will have a targeted layout."

"Why do you have to stare at a celestial being?"

"The rules of the universe will suppress us. Even if we can take action at that time, our power will be limited. However, the four little guys who have transformed into gods from the bodies of Dao ancestors will not be weakened. The most direct way to deal with them is to cut off the source of their faith."

The female god who always stands in the hazy kingdom of God.

"Cut off the source of faith?" Someone pondered, "Are you going to massacre the lower-class people in the Federation? Then who will bear the consequences? The will of the universe will not let you go."

The catastrophe is about to happen, and the Federation, as the first line of resistance, will naturally receive the support of the universe's will.

In this situation, slaughtering the people of the Yanhuang Federation and weakening the system of gods, even if the will of the universe has no independent consciousness and is relatively easy to "fool", it is definitely not a fool who allows himself to be fooled.

After thinking of this, this being suddenly frowned.

Will the warriors of the Federation be favored by God by then?

Like Ji Jingqiu, once you are favored by heaven, or even in harmony with heaven's will...

Each family’s divine ban?

It's just a joke.

"I still suggest that we should not let Ji Jingqiu return to the universe this time..."

"Sorry, I have to leave for a moment."

suddenly.

A True Saint frowned and said, "That person has come to our door. We need to go back and receive him."

"Who?"

"Who else could it be? It just so happens that I owed some favors to people back then, so I'd better repay them all at once to avoid any accidents in the near future."

"This guy actually dares to come to me on his own initiative?"

After hearing this statement, everyone looked surprised.

Could it be that the fruit is really on this green lotus?
……

……

Just when the families were having a brief "meeting".

Taoist Qinglian not only did not leave or hide his tracks, but instead he came in with Ji Jingqiu and took the initiative to visit various Taoist temples.

"Fellow Daoist Shanhai, do you still remember me who saved half your life from Zi Shouzhen at the shore of Tiansheng Lake that year?"

"Tian Jianzi, I haven't seen you for many years. How come you are still the Taoist master? I have told you long ago that you are on the wrong path. Well, if you don't want to listen, I won't say it, lest you get angry and want to fight me to death without any consideration for our friendship. After all, there is a saying that great kindness can be as great hatred."

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Chongyang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Is your Tiandi Xuanmen still doing well? Don't tell me that each generation is getting worse than the previous one."

“Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Tianhan! Back then, you and I swam together in the Burial Sea. You saved me twice, and I saved you three times. These are truly the glorious years that made me sigh…”

"Hey, Jiuhuang, why are you getting balder and balder? Why don't you come with me instead of following Diluan?"

……

Faced with the visits of this former senior and pioneer, even if he was "firing at full speed" to the point of killing everyone indiscriminately, the "old friends" could only endure it temporarily.

"But Brother Qinglian?!"

"...Brother Qinglian, you are joking. I will never forget the great kindness you showed me in the past."

"I don't need to worry about my Tiandi Xuanmen. Tell me frankly, what do you want me to do? The favor we had in the past is not worth giving up my hope of becoming a Taoist."

A True Phoenix snorted and squinted at Taoist Qinglian. The hair on its head was indeed a little sparse. Not far away, there was a lazy woman in an imperial robe. She was squinting at the young man behind Qinglian and suddenly sneered:

"Why don't you bring the descendants of the Ji family? Maybe I will agree to your request."

Facing such a group of old friends, Taoist Qinglian smiled and suddenly sighed:
"Now that I am down and out, I dare not call you brothers. But thinking of our old friendship and missing those past years, I wanted to come and see you."

"How about this, I won't make it difficult for you all. The karma of the past will all be attributed to me, the younger generation. Please look for any rare treasures or precious medicines you have and give them to me, the younger generation, to take."

"To be honest, he will have a big battle soon. I wanted to help him recover in advance, but unfortunately I am short of money. I can only come to bother you old friends."

"Everyone, you won't give me face, right?"

The True Saints from various factions looked at the young man behind Saint Qinglian, recalled the conversation not long ago, and fell silent.

This is asking them to hold their noses...

Capitalize on the enemy?

Finally, Emperor Luan of the Phoenix Blood Palace said with a half-smile:
"Are you really not afraid that this kid will die of starvation?"

Taoist Qinglian smiled and said slowly: "He died of fullness. That means he is incompetent and cannot shoulder the heavy responsibility. He can't blame others."

Di Luan squinted his eyes and looked at Ji Jingqiu, and suddenly asked: "Why do I feel that there is a familiar aura about you?"

Ji Jingqiu thought about it, hid the two Phoenix Blood Flowers in the inner world deeper, and said calmly:
"I'm not familiar with the Ji family."

Di Luan immediately smiled and said, "He is indeed a good child."
