Chapter 201 Lao Li holding the cow, Lu Buwei’s visit, Confucius’ arrival
"Maitreya Buddha has passed away"
The original Xiji Heavenly Palace has now fallen into disgrace after being deposed and is now just the Xiji Heavenly Palace.
In the center of the West End Celestial Palace, the original ruins have been rebuilt. Although the body of the tall figure is still dilapidated, his power has not declined at all.
He tapped his knuckles on the throne and murmured to himself:
"It makes absolutely no sense. Does the death of Maitreya Buddha have something to do with the Supreme Being Xuanqing?"
Many immortal officials and gods below looked at each other in disbelief. One of the great immortal officials lowered his head and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, the sudden death of Maitreya Buddha in Lingshan should have nothing to do with Taishang Xuanqing. However, when Maitreya Buddha died, there was indeed something strange in Jiangling where Taishang Xuanqing was. That area was covered, what? There’s no way to see through it.”
On the throne of the emperor, Gou Chen glanced at the immortal officials and gods and said calmly:
"Even if it is related to Taishang Xuanqing, Maitreya Buddha is [Da Luo] and can roam through the years, and this time of annihilation will also die together in all time."
The immortal officials and gods were confused when they heard this, and the pupils of several great immortals shrank, vaguely understanding what the emperor meant.
It was the Maitreya Buddha who came across time at a certain point in time, but was completely extinct in Gangneung due to Taishang Xuanqing.
Or was it the passage of time and history that directly led to the death of the Maitreya Buddha sitting on the spiritual mountain?
Several great immortals took a breath of cold air, their scalps exploded, and their hearts were chilled. If this is really the case, it is too outrageous. This Supreme Xuanqing
A great immortal took a bold step forward and spoke cautiously:
"If it is really related to Taishang Xuanqing, doesn't it mean that Taishang Xuanqing has the means to threaten [Da Luo]? Then if he really comes to question him then."
On the throne, the stalwart figure first coughed up blood, then a sneer appeared on his face and said:
"It's just that it may be related to him. You don't have to know the reason. As for when he actually comes, so what? Even if he comes with the luck of humanity, it's nothing more than that. His cultivation is too low. If it weren't for the one from Tushita Palace last time, "
As he spoke, a look of resentment appeared on the face of the tall figure. He took a deep breath and said slowly:
"Let's not talk about this for now. If Taishang Xuanqing really comes to the Heavenly Palace, just ignore him and do whatever he wants. Just because he is an earthly immortal, even with human luck, can he really hurt me? "
The immortals looked at each other in confusion, and it seemed to be the same reason. As long as they didn't take action against Taishang Xuanqing and didn't offend the one in Tushita Palace,
At most, it's just a formality to let him come here and lose some face.
But now, the Xiji Tiangong has lost its reputation, and it is not a big deal if it loses more.
An immortal sighed quietly.
At this time, on the throne, the stalwart figure said again:
"You guys, please go down first. The death of Maitreya Buddha is quite strange. Don't ask, don't care, just keep your mouth shut and don't say anything."
The immortals, officials, gods, etc. paid their respects and retired, leaving only the stalwart figure thinking alone in the huge imperial palace.
He gently tapped the table, fell into deep thought, and murmured to himself:
"The death of that Buddha, is it good or bad? It should be good. But this is a big change in history. If it is not a repentance and repetition of history at the level of Tao and Fruit, it can only be related to Taishang Xuanqing."
"Having [Tao Fruit Characteristics], being an [Indefinite Number], and worshiping the one from Tushita Palace as my teacher, it is really good luck to inherit his clothes."
At this moment, he already knew that Lu Xuan was an [Indefinite Number], and all things had a certain destiny, and [Indefinite Number] itself was one of the characteristics of [Tao Fruit].
A hint of jealousy appeared on Gou Chen's face, but he immediately calmed down, laughed intriguingly, and said to himself:
"But so what? The immortal Buddha does not exist in [the present world], and the Tao and Fruit cannot appear. Even the one from Tushita Palace cannot take action in the [present world] at the end of the long river of time. Lu Xuan, Lu Zi, Taishang Xuanqing. What will happen if you die in this world?"
As [Da Luo], as a person who travels through time, he can know some things through the backhand left in [the present world].
………………
【present world】.
The land in the far west, in the Shang Palace.
The Lord of the Upper Palace was the most powerful person in the world and one of the few immortals. At this moment, he bowed to the ground devoutly and respectfully in front of a huge bronze statue.
The bronze statue glowed slightly, and a vague and intermittent voice came out with difficulty, falling into the ears of the Lord of the Upper Palace.
"kill"
"Lu Xuan."
The palace master of the upper palace looked shocked, and he quickly bowed his head again and said respectfully:
"Subordinate, take the order!"
He swallowed. The emperor wasted a precious opportunity and forcibly issued a decree, but he wanted to kill Lu Zi, who had recently become famous?
A deep look flashed in the palace master's eyes. He thought of the master of the living building who came to look for him two days ago. His mind turned and he said to himself:
“Interesting”
At the same time, Shenglou.
The two building owners stood opposite each other. The left building owner, with the Buddha's light shining in his eyes, said calmly:
"That Lu Zi is still in seclusion. I don't know when he will enter the world. The Death Tower, Dique, and Shang Palace have all been contacted. Just wait for that Lu Zi to show up, and then we can launch a large network."
"Are you sure?" The owner of the right building, who was full of Taoism, asked: "This person is quite impressive. He killed a big statue with the body of an earthly immortal!"
"It's just a trick to use secret techniques to activate the nine immortal corpses."
After a pause, Zuo Louzhu continued:
"But then again, looking at it now, the immortal of Sanqing Temple should not be his elder, but most likely his old friend in the ancient years when he was a disciple. It is also the master of Sanqing Temple that we should be careful about."
The owner of the right building nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly asked:
"By the way, what if Lu Zi never shows up?"
"So I forced him to show up." The Zuo Louzhu, who was shining with Buddha's light, had a deep look in his eyes, and there was a great sense of coldness in his words:
"More than two months later, the 'communication' between the genius of the demon clan and the younger generation of the human race caused the demon clan to kill and bleed like a river. How? I don't believe that Lu Zi hasn't come out yet. He doesn't claim to be Zhao Shanhe." What?"
"You, you," the host on the right said with a smile: "Don't you Buddhists like to call yourself compassionate?"
"Ah"
Zuo Louzhu smiled faintly:
"My Buddha has passed away as early as the ancient Spring and Autumn Period. Maitreya Buddha has passed away, and only Maitreya is left. He may or may not be a Buddha."
………………
Ancient Spring and Autumn Period.
Wearing coarse linen clothes and dressed like a farmer, the Supreme Being smiled and said:
"Xiaoxuan, I already know your doubts. The Maitreya Buddha is indeed a [Daluo], but the Maitreya Buddha is at the [Daluo] and [eternal] level, but Maitreya is not."
"What do you mean??" Lu Xuan and Qing Niu said in unison. The former was confused, while the latter was horrified.
The farmer stroked his long beard and said with a smile:
"You will know later. According to what you said, Xiaoxuan, when Maitreya came to you, he really didn't want to save you, but he just wanted to see if he could die in your hands. I guess he just wanted to try it casually. He tried, but he didn’t expect you to have Qingping Sword, but he really got what he wanted.”
"Huh??" Lu Xuan and Qing Niu said in unison again, with three question marks popping up on their foreheads.
this.
Why are there still people asking for death? ?
Lu Xuan's face was confused and he looked around blankly.
The farmer didn't explain much, just shook his head and said softly:
"I didn't think carefully before and exposed you to the sight of many Taoist fruits in advance. This time I came to this world to accompany you through the rest of the path of preaching."
Lu Xuan's expression became solemn, and Qing Niu also swallowed his saliva.
The farmer continued:
"But it's you who are preaching. I don't want to overshadow the guest. Therefore, I am just an ordinary farmer who brings cows for you. Do you know that?"
Lu Xuan became a little at a loss:
"Teacher, is this not good?"
Qingniu was even more frightened:
"Sir, please don't make this joke. How dare I do this?"
The farmer asserted:
"Okay, it's settled. Speaking of which, Xiaoxuan, what happened to your Qingping sword? When did your third uncle give it to you?"
Lu Xuan coughed twice, thought for a while, and decided to abide by the agreement with the Third Master, and said vaguely:
"One time when I was in [Original Point], the third uncle also said that he was afraid that someone would target me, so he asked me to hold it."
What he said was basically the truth, but he changed the name of Third Master's "Zun" to "Uncle".
The farmer snorted and said nothing more, but his eyes deepened:
"Let him be honest, but speaking of it, today's events are too coincidental. Those three guys came to block the door, and Maitreya also came to find you. It seems that it was discussed in advance, but I don't know what those Taoist friends are planning. "
Qingniu's expression tightened, and he swallowed secretly:
"Sir, just now, has the Dao Fruit War started just now?"
"Yes." The farmer nodded lightly.
Lu Xuan also swallowed and asked carefully:
"Teacher, how is the battle going? Are the second and third uncles of the second division okay?"
The farmer smiled shyly:
"Your second uncle is fine, but your third uncle is more miserable. His injuries should be serious."
Both Lu Xuan and Qing Niu's expressions changed suddenly, and they were seriously injured.
The former took a breath of cold air and his mind wavered. How brutal should this battle between Daoguo be?
With the Third Master's majestic power, he actually suffered serious injuries and injured the Third Master's Dao Fruit. How terrifying must it be?
Lu Xuan shrank his neck, Qing Niu shivered, but the smile on the farmer's face became more shy.
"alright."
The farmer coughed slightly:
"Although your third uncle's injury is not serious, I still have a sense of discretion when it comes to attacking. The injury does not involve the foundation, and it can barely be regarded as a skin injury."
After a pause, the farmer dressed as a prince continued to smile:
"Okay, let's not say this. You will continue to set off in the next few days, complete the missionary road as soon as possible, and get out of the sight of those Tao Fruits."
"is teacher."
"It's the same sentence. This time, you are the protagonist in preaching. My incarnation is just a farmer holding cows. Just call me Lao Li when you are outside."
Lu Xuan felt a little numb and responded slowly, Lao Li
The green cow was also a little dizzy, and all four hooves were weak.
While the two were talking, there were footsteps. They looked sideways and saw that it was Zhao Zheng carrying Lu Jianxue coming to the backyard.
Zhao Zheng first glanced at the farmer in surprise, and then said respectfully:
"My adopted father-in-law, Lu Niangrong's father is here and wants to thank us. Look."
"Father?" Lu Xuan regained his original calm at this time, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "Then let's meet him, and then it's time to start again."
"Yes, my adopted father-in-law." Zhao Zheng simply nodded, and then asked curiously: "My adopted father-in-law, who is this?"
"Ahem." Lu Xuan coughed twice, hesitated for a long time, and finally said quietly: "This is the farmer I met on the road. Just call him Lao Li, and then let Lao Li take care of the cows."
The green cow on the side was a little weak in the legs. Although Zhao Zheng was confused, he didn't ask any more questions. He just nodded, looked at the farmer curiously, and then said:
"Lao Li, right? Since your adoptive father and ancestor asked you to come to take the cow, it is your chance. Remember to be careful and keep your mouth shut no matter what you hear in the process. Do you understand?"
Lu Xuan and Qing Niu's legs became weak again.
The farmer-looking Supreme Avatar just nodded innocently and said cheerfully:
"good."
Zhao Zheng nodded and wanted to give some more instructions. Lu Xuan stopped him quickly, coughed and said:
"Okay, that's almost it. Isn't Lu Niangrong's father here? His name is Lu Buwei, right? Let's go meet him. Besides."
Before he finished speaking, a purple energy suddenly came from the sky, and there was a loud noise outside the door.
"This is..." Zhao Zheng looked at the turbulent purple air above his head that spread for thousands of miles, and he was a little surprised: "Thousands of miles of purple air coming from the east? Is it a great virtuous person who has arrived in Jiangling?"
Lu Xuan raised his head and took a look. The law of cause and effect was involved, and a smile appeared on his face:
"Well, he's an acquaintance. Let's go meet Lu Buwei first."
As he spoke, he hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly nodded to the farmer, seemingly casually, but also as if he was saying a compliment:
"Old. Old Li, you first get to know Qingniu, and I'll go out first."
"Yes." Old Li responded honestly,
Zhao Zheng on the side nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:
"The farmer you are looking for seems to be quite honest. He just doesn't talk much."
Lu Xuan staggered and didn't dare to say anything. He just walked towards the front yard outside, his pace a little faster.
