Catching Monsters

Chapter 156 Tao follows nature
Soon, Jiang Yun picked up a stick of incense, held the incense bundle high above his head, and kowtowed towards the four directions.

Then he solemnly placed the incense bundle in the incense burner.

Then, he slowly recited the sutra: "The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is not the eternal name. Namelessness is the beginning of heaven and earth; name is the mother of all things. Therefore, always be without desire in order to observe its wonders; always have desire in order to observe its boundaries..."

While reciting the Tao Te Ching, he stepped into the Seven Star Steps and made hand gestures.

After reciting the scriptures, he came to the desk and wrote the petition carefully.

After writing the petition, light it and place it in the incense burner.

The above table is connected with the gods.

"Disciple Jiang Yun, respectfully invites the gods."

"Please ask Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun."

"Second, please invite Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun."

"Please invite the Great Pure Heavenly Lord of Daode for the third time."

The two heavenly masters Lingguzi and Qingyangzi, who were sitting in the audience, looked at each other with frowns when they heard Jiang Yun talking about the gods.

Ling Guzi couldn't help but think that what Master Bai Chen said was indeed correct. This kid was practicing some unorthodox techniques and it was impossible to invite the Taoist Master to help. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

The many Taoist disciples below the stage looked at each other in surprise as they watched Jiang Yun fiddling with so many things and the gods he invited, whose names they had never even heard of.

"This kid is just as I expected." Master Bai Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xiao Jingqi beside him, and said with a smile: "It seems that we finally won the magic contest."

She couldn't help but think in her heart that even if Jiang Yun won the first round of discussion.

As long as they win this round, Baiyun Temple and Tianqing Temple will be tied.

There is no need to move the statue of Taoist deity from Baiyun Temple to Tianqing Temple.

At the same time, Tao Yuelan couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Su Wen, why haven't I heard of these three gods that Jiang Yun invited?"

Xu Suwen forced a helpless smile on his face and said slowly: "Don't mention you, mother. I have never heard of it either."

"What should we do? Jiang Yun won't lose, right?" Tao Yuelan was a little worried about her future son-in-law.

Xu Suwen shook his head and looked at Jiang Yun who was praying to the gods on the stage, his brows slightly frowned.

After Jiang Yun finished reading the names of the Three Pure Ones, nothing appeared above him.

Master Baichen gave Xiao Jingqi a look.

Xiao Jingqi understood instantly, stood up, and with a smile on his face, he asked, "Hey, Jiang Yun, where are the three gods you invited? Why didn't they come?"

"Is it impossible to invite the three of them?"

"Or are they afraid of Dao Zun and don't dare to compete with him, so they hid themselves and don't dare to come?"

Jiang Yun took a deep breath and slowly looked up at the sky: "Welcome the three ancestors!"

boom!
A moment!

The two heavenly masters, Lingguzi and Qingyangzi, were the first to sense something was wrong. They both sensed an extremely vast and majestic avenue.

Above Qingfeng Temple, several hundred meters in the air.

Three phantom statues stood above, each of them was hundreds of meters tall!
The three statues slowly opened their eyes and looked downwards.

All the Taoists present, when they looked into the three pairs of eyes, seemed to see the great way in an instant.

These three pairs of eyes seem to come from ancient times, containing the mysteries of life and the laws of the universe, which are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

This majestic feeling of the great way made even the two Heavenly Masters feel lost and confused.

Not to mention other Taoists.

Three statues of the Three Pure Ones slowly descended, like a mountain pressing down on top of one's head, and landed on top of the Qingfeng Temple.

Then, a voice resounded in everyone's ears.

'Tao follows nature'

Jiang Yun was on the high platform, holding a wooden sword, maintaining the magic circle, but he could no longer hold on.

The three statues slowly disappeared in the sky above Qingfeng Temple.

There was complete silence at the scene, as everyone was still comprehension of the Three Pure Ones statues.

Even the two Heavenly Masters were still in shock at this moment. They could deeply feel that each of the three gods who had just appeared had probably already attained the Great Way.

Although they didn't want to admit it, in the eyes of the two Heavenly Masters, even the Taoist Master could not compare with these three gods.

In this world, there are gods like this? More powerful than the Daoist Master?
The two Heavenly Masters' eyes were filled with shock, because this was something that overturned their understanding!
Dao Zun founded Taoism and then ascended to heaven. How could there be a Taoist deity in the world more powerful than Dao Zun?
Yuanshi Tianzun? Lingbao Tianzun? Daode Tianzun?

Where did this god come from?
Even though this is the case for the two Heavenly Masters, let alone the other Taoist disciples.

Everyone was immersed in the shock of the Three Pure Ones just now, unable to extricate themselves for a long time.

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Chenzhen came back to her senses in horror. She stood up and shouted angrily: "This is a trick, how can anyone believe it!"

"There can't be a Taoist deity stronger than Dao Zun in the world!"

"This Jiang Yun must have used some tricks to deceive everyone."

The voice of Master Bai Chen brought everyone present back to reality.

Xiao Jingqi also echoed beside him, saying in a deep voice: "That's right, if it is really a Taoist immortal, how could we not have heard of it."

The other Taoists present all showed signs of struggle and confusion on their faces. No one was a fool, and everyone knew that the three immortals who had just appeared were probably not even comparable to the Taoist Master.

But no one is willing to admit such a thing that shatters one's worldview.

Master Baichen looked at Lingguzi and Qingyangzi eagerly and said, "Two Heavenly Masters, you..."

"Jiang Yun won." Ling Guzi closed his eyes and announced in a deep voice.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Many Taoists present stood up in a hurry and said, "Master, this is not possible. This is a discussion between us Taoists. How can this guy, who practices unorthodox methods, win?"

"That's right. Since he is asking for gods, he has to ask the Taoist master to make it count. What kind of skill is it to ask three gods that we have never heard of?"

"The Dao Master's Dao is infinite, how can we allow this evildoer to act so recklessly here!"

"Heavenly Master!"

Hearing the excited emotions of the many Taoists present, Jiang Yun was not surprised, or rather, it was even within his expectations.

Listening to this group of people talking and slandering him as a heretic, Jiang Yun simply clenched his fists and took a deep breath.

Although he was holding back his anger, he knew that he could not refute.

All those present were Taoist priests who worshipped the Taoist Master.

If I refute it and it causes public outrage, will I still be able to survive?
Master Baichen stepped forward and said loudly, "Master, this Jiang Yun is a heretic. He is not a Taoist. His victory does not count."

Jiang Yun took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and looked at Master Bai Chen: "Why can't I be considered a Taoist?"

Master Baichen said without hesitation: "What you are practicing is an unorthodox method!"

"You are a person who practices the underworld, and you still want to sneak into our sect."

Jiang Yun was so uncomfortable that he could no longer endure it. He said, "Master Bai Chen, you should know that there are always people better than you. You are practicing the right way, and the others are all unorthodox? Does this make sense?"

"You are a righteous sect. You have only three Taoist temples in the whole country. There are only a few hundred people in the Taoist sect?"

"You are really righteous and bring honor to your Taoist master."

Listening to Jiang Yun's words, Master Bai Chen wanted to refute, but he found that Jiang Yun's words were all true and he couldn't even refute them.

Afterwards, Jiang Yun took a deep breath and saluted the two Heavenly Masters. Then he looked at Master Bai Chen and said, "I am here to participate in the Dao Conference, not to join you."

"My words are a bit harsh, please bear with me."

"With all the bad behavior you guys have, why would I want to join you?"

"Isn't it more comfortable for me to stay in Jinyiwei than for you Taoists?"

"You keep saying that I am practicing unorthodoxy. Well, I will open the Sanqing Temple and promote the Sanqing Dao. I want to see who is the unorthodox one in the end!"

Tolerable or unbearable.

Jiang Yun also got angry, which was rare for him. Originally, he just wanted to live a good life in this world.

Then he opened a small Taoist temple and lived a comfortable life.

But he couldn't stand it anymore because these Taoists kept criticizing him for his evil ways.

You know, for a Taoist like Jiang Yun who has worshipped the Three Pure Ones for many years.

To insult him as a heretic is to insult the Three Pure Ones.

Although Jiang Yun's words were meant for Master Bai Chen to hear, the Taoists present immediately became angry when they heard them.

Master Bai Chen also hurriedly provoked, "Everyone has heard that this unorthodox sect wants to open a temple and preach. If we allow it to do so, what face will our sect have?"

Jiang Yun retorted, "You guys are in such bad shape, what dignity do you still want?"

"you you you!"

Jiang Yun: "If I were you, and I really believed in the Taoist Master, I would just kill myself if I had ruined the Taoist sect like this."

"Besides, your Baiyun Temple's Taoist statue was lost to the Tianqing Temple. Why are you still talking nonsense here? Go home and move the statue."

Zhenren Bai Chen was so angry that she spat out a mouthful of blood. She covered her chest and stared at Jiang Yun unwillingly.

If this wasn't a discussion meeting, she would definitely take action and kill this rude Zuo Dao!

After saying this, Jiang Yun felt a little more relaxed.

The two Heavenly Masters looked at each other with sullen faces, and there was a hint of helplessness in their eyes.

Ling Guzi looked at the lively scene and was afraid that a fight might break out, so he stood up, raised his hand and said, "Alright, this is a conference to discuss the Dao, not a competition of fighting."

"Jiang Yun won, that's it."

The two Heavenly Masters still have some dignity and will not deny their mistakes.

However, a hint of worry emerged in the hearts of the two of them.

If this kid really opens a temple to preach...

Xiao Jingqi was beside him at this time, supporting Master Bai Chen, and his expression was also flustered: "Master, are you okay?"

Then, Xiao Jingqi looked at Jiang Yun fiercely and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Yun, don't be so arrogant here. If you have the guts, fight me. Do you dare?"

"The two of us will not only determine who is better, but also decide life and death!"

Everyone present looked at Xiao Jingqi in astonishment. Was the dignified Prince Zhou of Zhou actually going to fight a life-and-death battle with Jiang Yun?
