Chapter 233 The trickery was discovered!
Huaguo Mountain is located on the coast of the East China Sea, the ancestral vein of the ten continents.
It is truly a rare and precious place!
When the Heavenly Being concealed its aura and arrived riding the clouds...
Just as the sun was rising,
The glow of the sunset shone upon the chaotic immortal stone with nine orifices and eight holes on the mountaintop.
The stone gleamed brightly.
The stone was about 36 feet and 5 inches high.
It conforms to the number of days in the universe, and its surface is as smooth as a mirror.
A faint golden light could be seen flowing inside, just like the flow of veins in the human body!
Tongtian fell before the stone.
He sat cross-legged, the newly forged Qingping sword resting horizontally on his lap.
"Little stone!"
"I am a Daoist with profound knowledge, and from this day forward, I will discuss the Dao with you."
He spoke to the stone in a calm tone.
You may not understand, but that's okay.
The Tao follows the natural order; whether one listens or not, understands or not, it's all a matter of fate.
The mountain wind blows, and the stones are silent.
But a string of ellipses faintly appeared in the void!
Tongtian didn't care either.
He immediately began to explain the general principles of the Shangqing Daoist teachings:
"The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, and Three gives birth to all things."
All things carry yin and embrace yang, and through the interaction of these energies, harmony is achieved...
And so, Tongtian would come here every morning.
He didn't return to his makeshift shelter until sunset.
Rain or shine,
Tongtian planned to tell Shitou everything he had learned and experienced from all these different societies!
Initially, it was just reciting Taoist scriptures.
Later, they began to explain the essentials of swordsmanship.
Occasionally, fearing that Stone might get tired of hearing it, he would also talk about the old stories of the Jie Sect.
"I once had four disciples."
Duobao, Jinling, Wudang, and Guiling—each one is an extraordinary genius…
Tongtian stroked the Qingping Sword, a flash of reminiscence in his eyes.
"Duobao is the most steady child; he always advises me not to be too rigid..."
If they had listened to him, perhaps the Jie Sect wouldn't have...
He shook his head and turned to the stone:
You probably don't understand what I'm saying.
Alright, today I'll teach you a move called "Water Lily Skimming the Edge of a Leaf".
Look carefully.
Immediately, Tongtian activated his power.
Where the sword light rose, it was like autumn waters stretching across the sky.
The point is placed three inches into the air in front of the stone, creating ripples that spread outwards.
The sword energy was extremely restrained, and the degree of control over it was terrifying.
Even at the level of a saint, not a single blade of grass or tree is harmed.
However, the sword moves contain the profound meaning of severing cause and effect.
The stone remained silent.
However, the golden sheen on the surface seemed to shift too quickly.
......
At the same time, before the Six Paths of Reincarnation Wheel in the Underworld,
A bizarre scene is unfolding!
The projections of the five senses of Jieyin and Zhunti were blocked.
A look of sorrow mixed with the awkwardness of being captured emanated from Jin Chanzi's soul.
"My Western disciple, Jin Chanzi, is prone to having worldly desires."
"We in the West have decided to condemn him to ten lifetimes of reincarnation, subjecting him to hardship, before he can finally return to Buddhism."
The guide clasped his hands together, his attitude extremely sincere.
"Fellow Daoists, I hope you will do me a favor."
Pingxin's body was enveloped in a continuous flow of cyclical energy, his expression serene.
A divine sense was directly transmitted into the two projections.
"The cycle of reincarnation in the underworld has its own rules, and Buddhist disciples are no exception."
only..."
She glanced at Tianqi beside her, a sly glint in her eyes.
"I believe that this Jin Chanzi was originally a golden cicada who attained enlightenment."
Despite being a spirit, he has no great merit or contribution to his name.
According to the law of reincarnation, I don't yet have the fortune to be directly reborn as a human.
Zhunti frowned.
He knew this matter would be difficult, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult!
We shouldn't have made exceptions for Jin Chanzi's soul in the first place.
Now that it's been discovered, this is really troublesome!
What does this mean?
"The meaning is very simple."
Apocalypse chimed in with a grin.
"Even if spirits and monsters reincarnate without making significant contributions or accumulating great blessings to the primordial world,..."
They can only reincarnate within the category of "spirits".
However, if you know what's good for you, he can become a spirit or monster within the human realm.
for example...
"Hmm, grasshoppers in the field, cicadas in the trees, or..."
He blinked.
"A frog that always wants to talk but can only croak?!"
Although Jieyin is currently suffering from the loss of all five senses due to the sealing effect of the Heavenly Dao's reincarnation power,
But his expression remained slightly somber:
"Fellow Daoist Tianqi is joking. How could a disciple of Buddha..."
"I'm not joking!"
Tianqi shrugged.
The law of reincarnation clearly states: those without human intelligence cannot enter the human realm.
Although Jin Chanzi is a disciple of Buddha, his true form is a golden cicada.
This is an unchangeable fact. Unless...
He deliberately dragged out the sound.
"Are you willing to let him completely abandon his Golden Cicada origins and everything from his past?"
Truly reborn as a human!
A golden light flashed in Zhunti's eyes.
I initially thought there was no hope, but now I feel like I can still give it a shot:
"What should we do?!"
"Then you have to go through the complete cycle of reincarnation."
All memories of his ten lifetimes have vanished; he is no different from an ordinary mortal.
Calmly and peacefully transmit your divine sense.
"Whether one can awaken memories of past lives after ten lifetimes are completed depends on fate."
Jieyin and Zhunti seemed to exchange a glance.
Even if they can't communicate with each other spiritually, the tacit understanding they've built up over so many years as brothers...
They still ended up making the same choice!
"Can!"
The guide finally nodded.
"Let him reincarnate ten times as a mortal."
A slight smile played on Tianqi's lips.
He exchanged a meaningful glance with Pingxin.
With a clear understanding, two divine senses once again entered the projections of the two individuals.
"What you two wanted, I have already given you."
Now, shouldn't we talk about compensation?
I'll give your two disciples special treatment in the underworld.
What did you two say?!
Upon hearing this, Jieyin and Zhunti's faces darkened.
But things have already come to this point.
It doesn't seem right to refuse!
It seems like they have no choice but to agree!
Then the guide frowned and said:
"I wonder what you want?!"
Upon hearing this, Pingxin said calmly:
"You two don't have much good stuff left either, so we won't make things difficult for you!"
"Then we'll push your western territories back another ten thousand miles!"
Upon hearing this, the golden light vanished from their faces, turning them deathly dark!
When Pingxin drew the dividing line earlier, it already extended tens of thousands of miles to the west.
Now they're being asked to retreat thousands of miles away.
Is the territory in the West going to shrink again?!
"..."
The two remained silent for a long time, yet dared not remain silent for too long.
Fearing that Pingxin would become angry,
He finally nodded.
We've decided to temporarily cede some territory, and plan to reclaim it later!
What they didn't know was that this territory had been taken over by the witch clan.
Getting it back will be difficult!
Having obtained the answer he wanted, Pingxin simply waved his hand, scattering the two projections.
In an instant, it vanished into nothingness!
Then, Pingxin once again used his supreme divine power to project himself to the western border.
They directly moved the western dividing line ten thousand miles to the west!
This move once again attracted the attention of everyone in the prehistoric world.
For a time, discussions and speculations abounded in the primordial world!
"Why haven't the two Western Saints reacted at all to the movement of the underworld's boundaries?!"
"So spineless?!"
"Then why not just quit the primordial world altogether?!"
"If you have guts, then go ahead and do it! I think the Buddhist sect is quite sensible!"
"Could it be that the two sides have reached some kind of consensus?!"
......
Once the projection of the two saints dissipates,
Gonggong, who had been pretending to be serious all along, suddenly burst into laughter:
"Little brother, you really know how to play!"
Now Jin Chanzi must sever all ties with his past and truly become a 'mortal'.
The mystery of ten lifetimes in the womb—until he remembers who he is.
It seems the Journey to the West has come to an end!
