Chapter 213 Making History

Jiang He went to the imperial capital this time for a very clear purpose.

He did not make a big fuss, but entered the capital alone and quietly came to the study of the Tianxun Chief.

The chief inspector came to the study to work. He sensed the presence of a stranger and pushed open the door with a knife. When he saw the man in white clothes, he lost his guard and spoke in surprise.

"Brother Gu!"

Decades ago, the Chief of Patrol gave the imperial order to Gu Bai, with the original intention of rewarding and protecting him.

Who would have thought that Gu Bai not only did not covet power and wealth, but instead made full use of the authority brought by the imperial order to patrol the world to detect evil and promote good.

Today, he, a "non-staff member", has become synonymous with sky surveys.

Whenever people think of Tian Xuan, the word "Gu Bai" will come to mind. However, not many people can tell the name of the chief Tian Xun.

The chief patrol officer was not jealous of this.

People only know that Gu Bai has done a lot in recent years, but they don't know how many cases he has done.

Only the Chief of Patrol, through the channels of Patrol Guard, pays attention to every case and file that Gu Bai handles.

From the first surprise, to satisfaction, to shock, and finally to awe.

This is a man who single-handedly changed the entire world of Daluo!

Consider him a successor?

Just thinking about it makes the Chief of Patrol feel a little arrogant, but it would be more appropriate to call it abdication in favor of someone more worthy.

It's a pity that the Chief of Tianxuan sent letters to invite Gu Bai to the capital many times, expressing his willingness to give up his position as Chief and become his deputy, but he was rejected every time.

Now that he appears here, the Chief Inspector of Tianxian is only surprised.

"Are you finally willing to take over the position of chief?"

"You are the chief secretary and I am the deputy chief. With the strength of the two of us, we can definitely wipe out the sneaky people in the world!"

Faced with the scorching gaze of the chief patrol officer, Jiang He shook his head and spoke.

"Brother Zhan, I'll put the affairs of the chief department on hold for the time being. I'm in the capital this time because of important matters. I need to meet the emperor."

The heart-appraisal mirror is an important weapon of the imperial court.

Even if the chief surveyor wants to use it, he must apply for it and it can only be used for a short period of time.

If Jiang He wanted to study it for a long time, it would be better to discuss it directly with Luo Di.

Moreover, he now has the ability to protect himself and can appropriately reveal the secrets of this world to gain more support.

The head of the patrol did not understand what the important matter was, but he understood Jiang He——

With his status as a civilian patrolling the sky, he didn't need to seek help from others if he wanted to meet the emperor.

In addition, he claimed to be here for important matters...

The chief patrol officer pondered for a moment and then spoke.

"In three days, I will go to the palace to meet with the Holy Lord and report on the situation collected by the patrol guards."

"Brother Gu only needs to go on my behalf, so that he can be alone with the Holy One without disturbing anyone."

Jiang He didn't ask how to replace it.

Now that the Chief Superintendent of Patrols has brought it up, there is naturally a way to solve it.

He saluted cheerfully.

"Thank you, Brother Zhan."

…

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

In an era when extraordinary power symbolizes authority, there are masters everywhere in the palace, and Emperor Luo himself is one of the strongest in this world.

Even if Ega wanted to sneak in, it would be difficult not to alert anyone.

However, with the help of the Chief Inspector of Patrols, Jiang He easily entered the palace and met the contemporary Emperor Luo.

It seems that there is no need to borrow luxurious clothes to prove authority.

The contemporary Luo Emperor is dressed in regular clothes and holding a book in his hand. His posture and temperament are more like those of a successful Taoist practitioner than the majestic Ninth Five Supreme Beings of later generations, and he is unexpectedly peaceful.

He looked at Jiang He with unabashed admiration.

"What's important, Qing Gu?"

Luo Di had thought in advance about what the "important matters" mentioned by the Inspector of Heaven Patrol were.

However, when Jiang He spoke, it still far exceeded his expectations.

The demon steals human skin and pretends to be a Buddha...

The pure land of Lingshan is actually a monster cave...

As he narrated, Luo Di's expression became more solemn. The dignified eighth-level monk was unable to control his strength, and the books in his hands turned into ashes.

When Jiang He finished speaking, the imperial study room fell into dead silence.

I don't know how much time passed before Luo Di slowly spoke.

"Is there any evidence?"

To be honest, if it had been someone else, Luo Di would have probably captured him and thrown him into prison to calm down——

Are you kidding me?

For thousands of years, evil spirits have been almost extinct. Even if they occasionally appear, they will be quickly eliminated.

At this time, someone suddenly told him that the demon did not disappear, but stole human skin and transformed into the world's number one Eternal Buddha Sect.

Those Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and even contemporary Buddhas are actually transformed by evil spirits.

Even if Emperor Luo wanted to suppress the Buddhist sect, he would not believe such idiotic words.

However, it was Gu Bai who said this.

He is famous and is a contemporary great sage certified by Emperor Luo personally.

He can't suddenly become insane, can he?

What's more, putting aside the fact that the demons and Buddhas are in troubled times, his words are so precise and interlocking that there is no mistake at all and he is convincing.

Luo Di asked for evidence and already believed it.

However, Jiang He shook his head and sighed.

"The secret method of evil spirits is extremely mysterious. Once the human skin is added to the body, it will be completely integrated into one body, without distinction between them."

"Even if you have a clear mirror, you can't reveal your true self."

"It is impossible for me to have any real evidence to prove that the Arhat Bodhisattva of Buddhism was transformed by evil spirits."

"However, if your majesty is willing to leave the palace with me, leave the imperial state, and go to the borderland state where Buddhism has deeper control, you may be able to see with your own eyes the scene of demons stealing human skin."

No matter how arrogant the Demon Buddha Sect is, it is impossible to refine a living person under Luo Di's eyes.

Therefore, the Buddhist temples in the imperial state and even the surrounding states are all "serious" Buddhist temples. Even if there are new monks entering the temple, most of them come from the transfer of Buddhist sects.

If Luo Di wants to see the evidence with his own eyes, he must stay away from Dizhou and pay a private visit incognito.

This is obviously not a difficult decision.

If everything is as Jiang He said, the world of Daluo seems to be in peace and prosperity, but in fact it is already riddled with holes and is in danger.

In such a crisis, what if we go through it again?

Luo Di has already made his decision.

"Gu Qing, please."

[Inform Luo Di about the demon’s theft of Buddha’s name. 】

[Luo Emperor was shocked, so he summoned Luo Xiang into the palace and asked him to pretend to be the emperor and temporarily take charge of the government. Fang and You secretly left the capital. 】

[You two traveled day and night to Bianzhou, where you hid beside a Buddhist temple in the mountains and peeped in secret. 】

[However, Buddhism is low-key and Buddhist temples are restrained. 】

[Ding Feng has been sleeping in the open for half a month, but the Buddhist temple has still not taken action. 】

[Although Luo Prime Minister temporarily replaced him, Emperor Luo could not leave the palace for a long time, so he searched the border state officials to find prisoners on death row and used the law to confuse them. 】

[The prisoner on death row pretended to be a woodcutter in the mountains. His home was killed by a wild beast and he fled to a Buddhist temple alone. 】

[The monks of the Buddhist temple rescued him and sent people to investigate secretly to verify what he said, and then he had different ideas. 】

[However, the abbot came forward to appease his heart and invited him to live in the temple. Late at night, he used magic to lure him, making him admire Buddhism and voluntarily convert to Buddhism. 】

[Under the guidance of the abbot, he worshiped the Buddha day and night, becoming more and more pious. After another seven or forty-nine days, he finally transformed into human skin and fell into a bag. 】

[The abbot was so happy that he went to the mountain in person, enlightened the evil spirit, and wrapped it in skin. 】

[Luo Emperor hid aside and saw the demon stealing human skins, recreating human bodies, learning people's words, and discussing Buddhist scriptures. He took action angrily and razed the Buddhist temple to the ground. 】

[There is no doubt anymore. 】

Commoners patrol the sky, and the demon Buddha is frustrated.

Even the mountain Buddhist temples in remote states have been affected and have shrunk, not daring to harm people at will.

However, demonic nature is hard to change. When the prey took the initiative to jump into the pot, after the Buddhist temple confirmed the situation, he still could not resist the temptation and chose to take action.

But the abbot never expected that Luo Di would be beside him when he was refining human skin.

Luo Di saw with his own eyes this death row prisoner who, due to greed in his heart, assassinated his friends, stole his wife and made money, was finally arrested and imprisoned...

Under the influence of the secret method, the flesh and blood soul gradually merged into a piece of human skin, and finally was draped on the demon's body, evolving into an identical yet completely unfamiliar body and face.

Finally, he no longer had any doubts about everything Jiang He said.

Out of anger and disgust, Emperor Luo wiped out this Buddhist temple together with the top of the mountain.

However, when he looked at the flattened mountain top, he fell silent again.

Destroying a mountain or a temple is easy.

However, the power of Buddhism spreads all over the world, not just one mountain or one temple?

Not to mention, the previous generation of Buddha in the Buddhist sect may not have died yet. He is hiding deep in the Lingshan Mountain, and there are two eighth-level monks in total!

Even if he could invite the Taoist Heavenly Master to join him in killing the demons and Buddhas.

The battle of life and death among five eighth-level monks...

Even if they win, I don’t know how many states will be turned into wasteland.

"..."

Jiang He saw Luo Di's gloomy face and could understand his mood.

Most people will become frightened when they find cockroaches in their home.

The situation in Luochao was even more serious. Not only did he find cockroaches everywhere in his house, but there were even several big muscular cockroaches from Mars lying on the ceiling looking down...

Luo Di probably feels this way now.

Creepy!

Jiang He couldn't help but comfort him.

"Your Majesty, don't just focus on Buddhism."

"After a demon steals human skin, it can become a monk, but not necessarily a monk."

"Buddhists can always lurk in the dark and do all kinds of things without being noticed. Without additional help, it is impossible..."

"Perhaps, skin-stealing demons have already sneaked in in various sects, sects, and even within the imperial court, but they were not aware of it."

"If we take action rashly and attack Buddhism..."

"It might cause internal instability."

"..."

Luo Di froze on the spot.

The dignified eighth-level monk actually felt like his scalp was numb.

Because before, Jiang He only talked about demons wearing human skin and stealing Buddhism.

He also subconsciously thought that as long as the Demon Buddha Sect was eliminated, everything would be over.

Luo Di has even begun to think about how much effort and price it will take to massacre Lingshan, defeat the demon Buddha, and destroy all Buddhist temples in the world...

result--

Are demons and Buddhas just part of it? !

Luo Di felt cold in his heart.

If it is true as Jiang He said, demons are also lurking in the court and various sects.

So, once he starts a war to destroy the Buddha, he is very likely to be attacked from both sides.

It would be even more terrifying if we were not attacked from both sides.

After paying a huge price, the Buddha Sect was finally eliminated, but the skin-stealing demon was not killed.

They can abandon the name of Buddha and change their identity to develop and grow again...

Like weeds, they cannot be burned away by fire and will grow again when the wind blows.

Luo Di was silent for a long time before he looked up at Jiang He, stared into his eyes and spoke word by word.

"Are you really unable to tell the difference?"

Luo Di originally only regarded Jiang He as a talented person.

However, when Jiang He exposed the demon Buddha, he suddenly became mysterious——

There are countless heroes in the world, and there are even eighth-level heavenly masters in Taoism, but no one has ever discovered the secret of Buddhism.

On the contrary, looking back at Buyi Xantian's past, he began to consciously target Buddhism from the time when he was an unknown third-level strength...

Did he already know the truth about Buddhism at that time, or even earlier?

Everything you do is to destroy the demon Buddha?

If this is really the case...

There is absolutely no way he can't deal with the skin-stealing demon!

"There is no way yet."

Faced with Luo Di's gaze, Jiang He finally revealed his plan.

"However, Your Majesty has a clear mirror."

"This mirror can break illusions and clarify the truth. Although it cannot reflect the real body of the evil spirit now, as long as it is improved, it may be possible to create a real mirror that illuminates the evil spirit and break the evil spirit's method of stealing skin!"

"..."

When Jiang He said the first half of his words, Luo Di's eyes were hot.

However, after hearing the second half of the words, he calmed down.

"You have never seen the Mirror of Mind, are you just hearing about it?"

"...are the rumors false?"

Jiang He was slightly startled when he saw the disappointment in Luo Di's eyes.

"Could it be that the mirror in the palace is the same as the high-hanging mirrors hung in government offices in various places? It can only illuminate illusions, but cannot dispel illusions and clarify the truth?!"

"No, you heard right about the efficacy of the Mind-Assessing Mirror."

Luo Di sighed.

"However, there is no possibility of improvement -"

"There are rumors in the world that the Jianxin Mingjing was built by Emperor Gaozu, but this is actually a rumor."

"This is a magic weapon left by the previous dynasty. Gaozu accidentally obtained it and used it. It was only later people who admired Gaozu and spread rumors that led to such remarks."

"In fact, not only the wonderful method used to cast this precious mirror has been lost in the war, but also the mystery of the precious mirror itself has been greatly lost, and it is no longer what it used to be."

"Can't it be fixed?"

Jiang He asked with a frown.

Luo Di shook his head slightly.

"The loss of the treasure mirror's mystery is similar to that of the magic method. It is because compared to the previous dynasty, the world today is increasingly declining..."

"There are materials in the palace to repair the precious mirror. Can this ruined world be repaired?"

Jiang He was silent for a moment.

According to his speculation, the mind-gazing mirror is undoubtedly the most suitable thing for the future demon mirror.

Not only does it have the ability to illuminate illusions and discern truth, it is also very similar to the records of the Demon Mirror in the history recorded in the world of spirits.

Even the appearance of the Jianxin Mirror he saw when he entered the palace was very similar to the appearance of the demon mirrors that some Luo Dynasty heroes had evolved using their spiritual weapons in the world of Yuling.

It's hard not to feel that the two are the same thing.

However, why can’t the genuine Jianxinjingjing be improved or even repaired?

How will it transform into a demon mirror in the future?

"It would be great if there were records in the Yuling World..."

Jiang He fell into deep thought and suddenly realized something.

etc.

In the world of Yuling, there are many omissions in the records of demon mirrors.

Even the existence of the magic weapon Jianxin Mingjing disappeared directly, as if forgotten by all the heroic spirits.

This large-scale loss of heroic spirits' memories is very consistent with a situation.

"Historical distortion?"

"In the world of Yuling, are there any errors in the historical records related to the Demon Mirror?"

The two worlds are separated, so it is normal for recording errors to occur.

Jiang He changed his mind and reconfirmed the existing information.

First of all, the memory of heroic spirits will be lost, but false memories will not appear.

In other words, what the heroic spirits said about the efficacy and appearance of the Demon Mirror is correct.

It is indeed similar to Jianxin Mingjing, and can be said to be inherited from the same origin.

However, the heroic spirits have forgotten the existence of Jianxin Mingjing, which shows that the history of Jianxin Mingjing is wrong, and it is a source error.

In addition, the heroic spirits do not know the casting method of the Demon Mirror. They only remember that someone took it out to end the chaos...

"If the demon mirror does not exist at all, then everything makes sense."

"Faced with the threat of demons and Buddhas, in order to stabilize the chaotic people's hearts, the Hundred Sects seized the imperial court's mirror and named it the mirror of demons, claiming that it could reveal the true form of demons..."

"This way, we can temporarily stop internal chaos and suspicion of each other, and work together to fight against the demons and Buddhas."

"But because of this, 'traitors' often appear within, leading to a breakdown in strength and almost being destroyed by demons and Buddhas."

"Because the Hundred Sects finally won, the Demon Mirror replaced the Heart Mirror with the real one, leading to historical distortion..."

"As for the world of Yuling..."

"Although the history is distorted, it just lacks the true origin and casting method of the Demon Mirror."

"The derived spiritual weapons can still exert their power normally."

"And this kind of minimal memory loss will not affect the improvement of the heroic spirit's strength, so it is not taken seriously by the spiritual masters..."

"Perhaps, some historians have noticed anomalies, but did not pay attention to them. Instead, they focused on the large-scale historical distortions that would affect the awakening of heroic spirits..."

Jiang He frowned slightly.

The future monks, in desperation, forcibly fabricated the Demon Mirror to boost their morale, and finally won, which is indeed heroic.

But because of this, they all died together and completely fell into chaos.

He didn't want to go down this path.

"Isn't there any other way besides looking through the mirror?"

Luo Di asked again from the side.

Jiang He was silent for a moment, but nodded.

"have."

"any solution?"

Luo Di looked expectantly.

Jiang He's eyes were bright and he was not confused at all.

"Since the mirror for appreciating the mind is not good, then we will build one ourselves."

Historical distortion is just a kind of speculation by Ega, and there are also loopholes in it.

However, regardless of the true history, Ega has no intention of giving up.

What if the demon mirror was created by someone in the future?

Since he can do it, Ega can naturally do it too.

If the magic mirror really doesn't exist.

Well, Ega lets it exist.
