Wet viviparity

Chapter 451: Fixed Body, Discussing Crimes
The Xinglin tradition places great emphasis on medical knowledge, and the specialty of each generation has been the art of curing diseases and refining medicine.

Although they are not good at fighting, the connections they have accumulated from curing illnesses and saving lives over the generations are spread all over the world.

Ji Ming had this in mind, so he chose to remain calm. If such a struggle came to the surface, he would be the one who would suffer.

In addition, using stillness to overcome movement also means accumulating strength. Currently, Ji Ming can still remain mentally relaxed because of Lu Daojun, a giant of the righteous path in the south of the sky. He is the absolute winning point in this storm.

For the Xinglin lineage, the stain of a mere broken spiritual cave is not enough.

Therefore, the Xinglin lineage will definitely use the damaged spiritual cave as a breakthrough point to further escalate the situation in order to force more guilt out of him, forcing him into a state of confusion and making him make more mistakes, until eventually even the Dao Lord will be unable to save him.

For Ji Ming, those groundless inferences about the Xinglin lineage were not enough.

The reason why he looked so miserable and fake was to tell everyone, including the Xinglin lineage, that he was powerless to resist at the moment. No matter how they forced him, he would be powerless even if he wanted to resist.

Only in this way can we accumulate strength and find solid evidence that the Xinglin lineage is the mastermind behind this, and let the Taoist Lord make the final judgment.

Ji Ming knew that in the contest between the enemy and us, Lu Daojun would be considered as a core factor.

He originally thought that Lu Daojun would sit back and wait, weigh the pros and cons, and make a decision at the last moment. He did not expect that he had already made a decision, and it seemed that he supported him very clearly.

Although he believed in the impartiality of the Taoist Lord, the reason why the Taoist Lord was so impartial was not because of equality and justice, but because of the overall situation of Taiping Mountain.

This means that the overall situation must be considered first, and then there can be a public heart, rather than having a public heart first and then the overall situation of Taiping Mountain. Once the order is reversed, the true meaning will be completely different.

"Dao Jun, what is the meaning of this instruction?"

"What do you mean? Of course I want you to kill Baicaozi so that I can make up my mind and let you, Jintong, be qualified to become the next generation, or the next generation, Zhenjun."

As soon as Daojun finished speaking, the word "Ding" on the talisman paper in Ji Ming's hand was shining. Ji Ming saw a talisman pattern in the shape of the word. With just one glance, he could see stubborn rocks, cliff pines, and countless motionless things.

"what!"

He cried out in pain, as if his soul was being torn apart.

"What kind of method did you practice to have such a heavy burden on your soul?"

Daojun was surprised. Because they were far away and had to deal with Madam Taihua's banquet, he couldn't take a close look at Jintong's soul. It was not easy to spy on other people's souls. He said, "Jintong, don't look away."

Ji Ming looked away, his forehead covered in sweat, his chest heaving and shrinking, like a tubercular patient.

"This is a spell to freeze the body."

Ji Ming covered his chest weakly and said with a look of joy.

"Every successor of the True Lord will have the teachings passed down by the ancestors, whether it is the secrets of refining magic weapons, the secret teachings of Taoism, or the guidance of fate. This teaching has been passed down by Master Lizhu, Master Fuding, my disciples, and you and You Rongzi will also have it.

These four magic arts of fixation, concealment, division, and substitution have been praised as the foundation of magic arts and the mother of divine arts since the Tian Zhou period. How much you can comprehend from them depends entirely on your own luck. "

Upon hearing this, Ji Ming folded up the talisman paper and combined it with Xuantan Zhenren's previous remarks, saying: "This word 'fixed' does not only mean passing on the Dharma. Daojun is telling me that when facing this discussion of crimes, I must be determined and unmoved like a mountain."

"Since you understand what this means, then enter the hall, accept your "fate", and let me see what you are capable of."

Daojun's voice gradually disappeared, and the door of the ancestral hall slowly opened. Powerful gazes shot out from the ancestral hall, sweeping over Ji Ming in an instant, and then slowly retracted.

"Enter the hall."

Among them, Master Li Zhu, the only one who did not cast a glance, said.

Ji Ming untied the two red snakes floating under his seat and stepped on the ground barefoot. The ground was not as cold as he had imagined, but the pain in his body while walking was just as he had imagined.

Inside the hall, there are countless spirit tablets, arranged in several layers, above the curling incense smoke.

They are all ancestors of Taiping Mountain, people who have made great contributions to the mountain. Some of them have become ghosts and gods, some have been reborn after death, and some have had their souls scattered. The spirit tablets of those who have become immortals are covered in circles of immortal light, protecting them forever.

Among them, the spirit tablets of the originator Baihe and the ancestor Ganxiong are the largest, like two large plaques, looming in the misty light.

There were only four people in front of the spirit tablets, the two elders Longhu, as well as Master Lizhu and Master Fuding. This kind of scene had never been seen before in the upper mansion. When Wen Daoyu came back to report on his work, it was just two masters who came forward.

"Disciple Lingxuzi greets all the seniors."

Ji Ming raised his hand and bowed.

In the hall, there are two scenes, the Cloud Dragon and the Wind Tiger. In the scene of the colorful divine tiger stirred up by the breeze, the Tiger Suppressor sat in the middle and said in a deep voice, "You are the Golden Boy. I have always heard this name for more than ten years, and it becomes more and more famous each time."

In front of the dragon and tiger scene, a Taoist monk in plain Taoist robes, Fuding, said, "Jintong, we know that the Five Poisons Blessed Land's spiritual cave was destroyed for a reason. Don't worry, the upper government will definitely make a fair judgment."

“The merits and demerits do not offset each other.”

The Tiger Guardian said this calmly, and then continued, "Jin Tong, let me ask you, after the Thunder General broke through the cave that day, why did you not return to the foot of Chaogou Mountain to continue leading the battle of the two southeastern routes?"

"Anxiety in the heart makes the spirit uneasy."

Ji Ming replied calmly. "You don't deny that you made mistakes as the leader of the second route in the fight?"

"Do not deny."

Ji Ming replied.

The Tiger Guard nodded, his expression relaxed, and said, "It's quite straightforward, without any drag."

"Golden boy."

Master Li Zhu said, "During the battle at Gou Mountain, someone discovered that the Mountain and River Palace was destroyed. All the monks guarding the palace disappeared, without a trace of soul left. The time when the palace was destroyed coincided with the time when you disappeared. Do you have an explanation?"

"No."

"Why?"

“The spirit cave was broken, the earth dragon turned over, and more than one temple was destroyed.

Besides, it was not just the guard monks who disappeared or fled into the mountains."

Master Li Zhu pondered for a while and said, "According to Master Fu Bei, there are the remains of the Poison Hook King in the Mountain and River Palace. The remaining spirit can be extracted to summon his Divine Scorpion Pearl. There is also an ancient stele that records the magic of the Xu tribe."

Ji Ming laughed and didn't answer because there was no need.

He was at the third stage of foundation building, while Fu Beigong was at the fifth stage of fetal spirit, a cultivator close to becoming an immortal. He was using his third stage cultivation to seek a treasure from the fifth stage, a treasure from his second primordial spirit, but no one would believe him if he told others about it.

Master Li Zhu shook his head and did not continue. He believed that Lingxuzi might be able to obtain the Divine Snake Pearl through the remains, but he did not believe that Lingxuzi could kill Fubeigong's second soul.

If the second soul could be destroyed so easily, what was the point of Fu Beigong working so hard to cultivate it?

"Let's put aside these groundless accusations."

Master Fuding waved his hand and said something, and Master Lizhu agreed, saying, "Then let's get straight to the point and talk about the responsibility for the destruction of the spirit cave."

"It's a crime!"

Said the Tiger Guardian.

"One is one, two is two. He is the second-in-command commander. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, he should take the responsibility for the destruction of the spirit cave instead of pushing it to others and showing no responsibility as a commander."

"Yes."

Ji Ming cupped his hands and replied, "I am willing to take responsibility. No matter what the punishment is, I will accept it."

Weng Zhenhu was a little surprised. Master Lizhu and Zhenren Fuding looked at each other. They had discussed this matter beforehand and were worried that Lingxuzi was inexperienced and could not tolerate such accusations, so he lost his composure while arguing with reason.

During this trial, the Xinglin clan did a lot of work and mobilized a lot of personal connections.

Although it would not shake their ideas and the final result, the Xinglin lineage still had to give an excuse for the sake of face.

"In that case."

Seeing that Lingxuzi was beginning to enter a state of meditation like an old monk, Zhenhu Weng said, "I will punish you to sweep the ancestral hall for thirteen years to atone for your sin."

"No."

In the scene of floating clouds and dragons, the Dragon Fishing Man who was dozing with his head down opened his eyes and looked at Lingxuzi with complicated eyes, as if touched by a long and distressing memory, and said: "The capture of Chaogou Mountain by the two routes in the southeast was not the work of Xu Yanzi, but it was actually facilitated by this boy.

With such great achievements, the so-called argument that merits and demerits are not equal is hard for us to justify, so we will send him to the Leiwen Mountain in the depths of Luoyin Lake to reflect on his mistakes. That is the site of the former Yinhe Palace, which is beneficial to Taoism. "

"good!"

Master Li Zhu said.

Master Fuding remained silent, with doubts in his heart.

In his opinion, Diaolong Weng's disciple Taihe Zhenren had just had one leg broken by hooks on Chaogou Mountain. Personally speaking, Diaolong Weng would not comment on Chaogou Mountain's achievements at this moment, as this would be tantamount to denying Taihe Zhenren's previous "efforts" and rubbing salt into his wounds.

"suspicious!"

He thought to himself, but couldn't figure out what the problem was.

"If there is no problem, please send him there!"

The dragon fisherman seemed extremely tired, and after waking up from a nap, he said.

"Wait." Wen Daoyu came running in from outside the hall, his face full of bitterness, and said, "Masters, didn't you say that you would wait for Senior Brother to come over and discuss the blame with me in the ancestral hall? Why didn't you inform me yet?"

Wen Daoyu felt like crying but had no tears. It seemed that good things were not his turn, but it also seemed that bad things were not his turn either.
