Chapter 340: Who Says No Successors
? Genius One Second Remember "", providing you with wonderful novels to read.
Ta Lao called out the name of the skeleton, or the name of the skeleton before it was alive. Others didn't have any special feelings, but the name seemed a bit strange. However, in Ye Zan's mind, the genealogy of the Yuqing Sect was recorded, so he immediately retrieved the name "Luan" from it.
Looking at it, Ye Zan was really a little scared. This Lian was actually in the line of Taoist Xuanqing, and he was one of the direct disciples of Taoist Xuanqing. Then search for more relevant information, although there is not much detailed information, but he also has a little understanding of this chaos.
The name Liluan actually has no special meaning, it just means staying away from the chaos of war. Back then, Xuanqing Daozu rescued him as a baby from the chaos of war, and named him Lilu only because his parents died and he couldn't know his real name.
As one of the direct disciples of Taoist Xuanqing, when the catastrophe began ten thousand years ago, Li Luan had already stepped into the realm of reaching the sky. Even ten thousand years ago, although the Tongtian Realm could not be called the Supreme, he was still a person who stood at the pinnacle of Taoism.
However, during that catastrophe, Li Luan was not able to stay away from the war in the monastic world as the name suggests. Moreover, the higher the cultivation level, the deeper the cause and effect. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to survive the catastrophe alone. Thus, in a battle that was not described in detail, Li Luan broke into the endless void and never appeared again.
Looking at it now, Lian Luan, who broke into the endless void, obviously did not escape the end of death. Otherwise, this skeleton will not give birth to new wisdom, and it is even less likely that it will enter the sect of the Bone Demon Sect.
The former supreme master of the sky, his body was digested into bones. Although he gave birth to a new spiritual wisdom, his cultivation had to start from scratch. Now he is only at the Nascent Soul level, which makes Ye Zan feel quite embarrassed.
Obviously, Li Luan came here this time with the intention of using his identity to achieve some purpose. However, Ta Lao's words denied the identity of Lian, thinking that this Lian is no longer that Lian.
In fact, in the world of science and technology, there are similar problems: Does a person's identity refer to his body or his will.
In the earliest time, when the technology was not very developed, for example, a person was brain dead, but the body could maintain life activities under medical equipment. So, is he dead, or still alive? In the former Bald Eagle Empire, there was a considerable debate about whether to remove the breathing tube of a brain-dead patient.
With the development of science and technology, this kind of ethical problem has become more and more prominent. For example, a person's brain is dead, and a person's body is severely damaged. Technology can already transplant a person's brain. Then, after the operation is completed, we will face a problem,
Is one person donating his body, or is another person donating his brain?
How should the identity of this person be identified, should it be identified according to the body or the brain? Even if there are regulations, it can solve the problem of identification, such as identifying according to the brain. So, how should we look at the original two people's separate families, this person formed by the fusion of two people?
Although in this world, it is generally believed that the soul is the foundation of a person's identity. Even in the metaphors of monks to Taoism, the body is likened to a boat, which is a tool for crossing the sea, and the soul is the "person" who drives the boat.
However, there is still a problem here in Chaos. After all, Li Luan was not taken away by someone, but a spiritual wisdom was reborn from this skeleton. Then, in a sense, even if he was not the chaos of the year, he could be regarded as a descendant of the chaos.
"I'm not Liluan, who could it be? Who else, could it be Liluan?" Lilu looked at Ta Lao, and said in a hoarse voice, without any emotion in his tone.
"Even if you are Liluan, you are no longer a disciple of Taoist Ancestor Lianluan, let alone you are still a member of the Bone Demon Sect." Ta Lao said in a deep voice.
"So what, I am the only person left to inherit the Taoist ancestor Xuanqing, who else is more qualified than me to inherit the legacy of the Taoist ancestor!" Li Luan said with a sneer, his tone full of confidence.
Inheriting the legacy of the Taoist ancestor? Could it be that what Li Luan planned was actually this Immortal Palace of Taoist Xuanqing!
If it is said that the current disorder is still the Supreme Being of Tongtian, maybe there is a chance to take over this fairy palace.
However, Li Luan's current cultivation base is only at the Nascent Soul level, and he is completely an ant in the eyes of Tongtian Supreme. Even if he still has such a relationship with Taoist Xuanqing, it may be difficult to take this fairy palace as his own.
So, what about narrowing the target down?
"No! If you talk about the inheritors, we were born and raised here, wouldn't we be more qualified to inherit the legacy of the Taoist ancestor Xuanqing!" What Ta Lao said suddenly became a little anxious.
Cheng Liangqi and the others didn't know what the Immortal Palace was like, so they directly believed that the relics of the Taoist ancestors mentioned by Liran were the Tongtian Pagoda and the world they lived in.
Although Cheng Liangqi and the others didn't know much about the demonic way, they could see the ferocity of some demonic people just from the few people who were killed in the second floor. How could they be willing that the world they live in, as well as themselves and others, fall into the hands of demons?
Of course, even if it fell into the hands of the so-called upright people, Cheng Liangqi and the others would not be willing. No matter who falls into their hands, they will become vassals of others, so the best result is to decide for themselves.
And that Liluan, when he heard the voice behind him, turned around and looked at Cheng Liangqi and the others, the two fires flickered slightly in his eyes, and said with great disdain: "You? !"
Descendants of Taoist soldiers?
Li Luan's words solved Ye Zan's question again.
Ye Zan has been thinking why Xuanqing Daozu placed so many people in this small world.
Could it be to select Yuqing disciples? However, due to the laws of heaven and earth, there are basically no talented people in this world. In other words, although the population base here is large, if you really want to select Yuqing disciples, it is far worse than selecting from the Shenhua domain.
You know, the Yu Qingzong ten thousand years ago was the leader of the right way in the world. Unlike Yu Qingzong, who was later reduced to a third-rate school, there was only a small area to select disciples. It can be said that ten thousand years ago, in the entire Shenhua domain, anyone who thought he had some aptitude was proud to enter the Yuqing sect.
Therefore, there is no need for Yu Qingzong to set up such a small world to select disciples. 【】
Now hearing Li Luan's words, Ye Zan immediately understood that these people were all descendants of the Taoist soldiers of the Yu Qing Sect. For a sect, especially ten thousand years ago, Dao soldiers were indispensable, and the loyalty of Dao soldiers was very important.
For example, if a large formation of Dao soldiers is formed, if one person here has a different heart, it may lead to the collapse of the entire formation. Therefore, the loyalty of Dao soldiers is not just to show loyalty, but to be genuine, so that the sect can rest assured to entrust them with important tasks.
But what can affect Taoist soldiers, one is personal interests, and the other is the affection between relatives. The ascetics are different from the Buddhists. What they talk about is that one person attains the Tao and ascends to heaven, rather than becoming a monk and cutting off the world. For ascetics, the seven emotions and six desires are very normal, and the most influential one is undoubtedly the blood relationship.
If a secular relative of a Taoist soldier is controlled and threatened, then even if he will not really betray the sect, his mood will be greatly affected.
Then, the simplest and most effective way is naturally that the sect should first control the relatives of the Dao soldiers. To put it bluntly, it is control, but to put it bluntly, it is protection. Although these people's lives in this small world are no different from those in the Shenhua Domain, and they may even live better. However, in fact this is a kind of control, just not as cruel as the enemy.
These people in the small world are all descendants of the relatives of the Taoist soldiers of the Yuqing Sect. Although the Taoist soldiers have a high status in the sect, the relatives of the Taoist soldiers are not considered as the disciples of the Yuqing Sect. Since he doesn't even count as disciples of Yuqingzong, how can he be qualified to inherit the legacy of Xuanqing Taoist ancestor?
"I don't care what kind of Taoist soldiers or generals, this world is our world, and no one can touch it!" Cheng Liangqi was furious when he heard this, raised his hand and sacrificed the Coiling Dragon Gold Seal, and threw it towards Chaos.
However, Li Luan over there didn't panic, stretched out his bone palm and pinched a spell. Immediately, all around, those magic treasures placed on the treasure rack shot out beams of precious light one after another.
Those streaks of precious light formed a big net above everyone's heads, and then disappeared in the void, as if nothing happened. However, almost at the same time that the Baoguang net disappeared, the golden seal of the Panlong sacrificed by Cheng Liangqi fell down uncontrollably, fell to the ground and rolled twice, and then there was no movement again.
Looking at Cheng Liangqi again, he was still pinching the formulas in his hands, his face was flushed red, as if he had used all his strength to feed. However, the Panlong golden seal that rolled to the ground remained silent without any reaction, as if it was an ordinary golden seal at all.
"Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that killing is not allowed here, do you think you would still be alive!" Li Luan said coldly.
Cheng Liangqi finally stopped, and knew that he couldn't summon the Coiling Dragon Gold Seal, but there was no magic weapon, and there was still mana in his cultivation! He didn't care what Li Lun said, he took a step forward, raised his palm and slapped Li Lun.
But at this time, the old tower finally spoke and said: "Stop it, he has triggered the restriction here, and no one can cast mana."
At this time, Cheng Liangqi also discovered that the palm he slapped had no power at all, and the magic power was concentrated in the palm but could not be released. But even so, he still rushed over. He would never allow his world to be controlled by a demon on the other side.
However, anyone Ta Lao said obviously did not include chaos. Facing the approaching Cheng Liangqi, Li Luan just waved his hand lightly, as if chasing away a mosquito. But looking at Cheng Liangqi, he flew upside down in an instant. If Yang Bufan and others behind him did not block him, he might have rolled down the stairs directly.
"Old Ta, I think I can already prove that I am qualified to inherit the relics of the Taoist ancestor." Li Lun turned to look at Elder Ta and said.
"Unexpectedly, you have not forgotten the past!" Ta Lao's expression became more and more complicated.
"Of course, I presided over this place for thousands of years, and those memories have already been engraved in my bones." There was some complacency in the chaotic tone, as if he already felt that he had the chance to win, and then said: "Now the world , there are no descendants of the Taoist ancestors, who else is qualified to inherit the treasures of the Taoist ancestors besides me?"
"No, you're wrong." Ta Lao shook his head, cast his eyes behind Li Lun and the others, and said, "The Taoist ancestor is not without successors, he is more qualified to inherit all this than you."
"What!" Li Luan was startled, turned around and looked behind. But at this time, almost everyone has come up behind them, so it is not known who Ta Lao is talking about.
Not only did Li Luan not know, but those people behind were also a little confused for a while. These people include Dao Palace and Freemasons, but the Tao Palace people are obviously impossible. There are also Cheng Daqi and others from the Star Sect, but the Star Sect has nothing to do with Xuanqing Daozu.
Not everyone knows the relationship between Yuqingzong and Xuanqing Daozu, so most people are a little confused for a while. That Cheng Daqi was standing beside Ye Zan, and seeing Ta Lao looking towards him, he raised his finger in a daze and pointed at himself. Although he wished that the person Ta Lao said was himself, he still had a little sense and felt that it was a little impossible.
However, on the side of the Star Sect, a few people couldn't suppress the surprise in their hearts, thinking that what Ta Lao said was really a big deal.
"Senior brother Cheng, you are hiding deep enough, so you are the... Xuanqing Daozu's successor!" A grandmaster of the Star Sect exclaimed in surprise. He even thought about his identity as a master, after all, the Daoist Xuanqing was a figure thousands of years ago, so what if he was not a descendant from another generation.
"Senior Brother Cheng, it's no wonder that you took us all the way here without any danger. It turns out that there is such a relationship!" Another grandmaster of the Star Sect also said.
However, Cheng Daqi was a little anxious, and quickly argued: "No, I don't know, it can't be mine."
"Senior Brother Cheng, this tower elder has already said it, so don't hide it from us anymore. I will need Brother Cheng to take care of him in the future." People from the Star Sect said one after another.
When the people of the Star Sect did this, Li Luan really believed it a little bit, and they really believed that what Ta Lao said was a master. So, without saying a word, he raised his hand and pinched the formula, and a sword light shot towards the great weapon.
Even though it was in front of everyone, especially Ta Lao, Li Lun did not hesitate to kill him. After all, if he didn't kill the opponent, he would definitely be empty-handed, and if he killed the opponent, there might be a little room for maneuver.
Seeing the sword light flying towards him, Cheng Daqi couldn't do anything, here only Li Luan could cast spells. Moreover, Cheng Daqi was locked by the sword light, and he couldn't even hide. He could only widen his eyes as much as he could, and waited blankly for the sword to take his life away.
However, at this moment, a shield suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Daqi, meeting the incoming sword light. There was a bang, and the shield was pushed back, knocking Cheng Daqi to the ground, but it blocked the sword light.
"You?" Li Luan could see it clearly, that shield was transformed from Ye Zan, who was beside Cheng Daqi, with a strange magic weapon. This also made him instantly understand that the person Ta Lao was talking about was not the fat white man, but this person who, like himself, could exert mana here.
"Li Luan, let's call you Li Luan. If you are doing this here, could it be that you really don't care about Taoist Ancestor?" Ta Lao said angrily at this time.
"You mean him, you say he is a descendant of the Taoist ancestor?" Li Luan didn't explain anything, but turned around and asked Ta Lao.
"That's right, it's him I'm talking about." Ta Lao admitted without any concealment.
At this time, all the people present also understood that the ancestor of Xuanqing Dao mentioned by Ta Lao was Ye Zan of Yuqingzong. As for the members of the Star Sect, they seemed a little embarrassed, knowing that they had committed an oolong, and almost killed them.
"No, I don't believe it. Is it just because he is a disciple of Yuqingzong? Today's Yuqingzong is not the Yuqingzong of ten thousand years ago. How can he be regarded as the descendant of the Taoist ancestor!"
Li Luan seemed a little crazy, unable to accept such a fact at all. After all, his predecessor was the direct disciple of Taoist Xuanqing. Even if the current him is just a newly born spiritual wisdom in this skeleton, this relationship is probably closer than any random member of the Yuqing Sect.
"Based on the exercises he cultivated, it is the "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing"." Ta Lao said resolutely.
You must know that even among the direct disciples of Taoist Xuanqing, there are not many who have practiced this "Miaojing of Dongxu Lingquan". Cultivating the Tao does not mean that if the master practices any kind of skills, the disciples must also practice the same skills. A real good teacher is to teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and choose suitable exercises for students according to their different situations.
This "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing", when Xuanyuan Laodao passed it on to Ye Zan, was to deal with the situation of Ye Zan's thirty-sixth grade Daoist foundation at that time. In fact, to put it another way, it can also be said that the cultivation of the "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing" requires conditions similar to those of Ye Zan. Perhaps, it is not necessary to say anything about the thirty-sixth grade Dao foundation, but the conditions must be quite harsh.
Therefore, although it is said that Lilu is a direct disciple of Taoist Xuanqing, he has not been handed down the "Miaojing of Dongxu Lingquan". And Ye Zan, although he is not a disciple of Taoist Xuanqing, but because he has practiced this technique, he can definitely be said to be the true inheritor of Taoist Xuanqing.
"What you practiced is actually the way of Taoist ancestors to achieve Taoism!" Li Lun turned to Ye Zan, although he didn't doubt Ta Lao's words, his tone was still full of disbelief. After all, as a direct disciple of Taoist Xuanqing, he also knows how harsh the cultivation conditions of the "Dongxu Lingquan Miaojing" are.
"This, I'm sorry, it is indeed this technique." Ye Zan nodded helplessly. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
