Chapter 1358: Meeting
Outside Yuxu Palace, the world is at peace. The large-scale destruction caused by the aftermath of the battle on the other side has been restored to its original state under the influence of going back in time to change history. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the world is red, and there are twenty-four wells in the thirty-six ancient wells surrounded by jade railings. The flaming haze is constantly rising, just like boiling, embellishing it with a dreamy and extraordinary feeling.
Deep in the palaces, in the Yuxu Palace, Meng Qi calmly accepted the congratulations from his disciples and friends such as Guangchengzi, Chi Jingzheng, Gao Lan, Jiang Zhiwei, etc., and officially took over the place, becoming the true master of the Yuxu Palace, the new "Yuan Shi" "Tianzun".
After some courtesy, Guangchengzi looked at Meng Qi with the golden lanterns twining around and the light of Qingyun like the water curtain in front of the eaves. He sighed deeply and said:
"Master Master, why bother..."
There is no substantial loss on one's own side. Taking a step back is calm. The severance of the path not only means that there is no hope of transcendence in this era, but also is plagued by backlash. The prototype of the Tao Fruit that is not far away may also become difficult.
When it comes to the realm of legends, if history has changed greatly, just like when Yuanshi Tianzun opened the source of time in the past, intercepted and extracted a section of "river" after the title of god, the great powers will be at infinite heights due to their natural aura, and the remaining parts have nothing to do with them. However, if this kind of historical change directly involves one's own family, it will be confused and people will not think that there is anything wrong with their own experience. Only when they climb into the world and feel the erosion of the long river of time can they have any changes to themselves. Things that have changed again are clear, but there is still a lack of real experience. It is like having a bizarre dream, a dream of another development of one's own destiny.
If you don't reach the other shore, or leave the sea of suffering, you will never see the truth. Even if you are a perfect person like Guangchengzi who has accumulated a lot of experience in exploring the other shore, he has no unforgettable hatred for the original death. It is as if you dreamed of being killed by someone, and there is no reason to wake up and pursue it. .
As for Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu, it was even more difficult for them to understand Meng Qi's mood when he struck out with the sword. It wasn't that they didn't understand enough, but that they simply didn't understand what was going on.
The difference in realm is not just about strength.
And among so many realms, the difference between the other side and the level below is the biggest, and the difference between the heaven and the abyss is indescribable!
Meng Qi's eyes were soft and showed no sign of majesty on the other side. After looking around, he said slowly:
"For Golden Mother, this is the best development."
"If I endure it and repay the grace of enlightenment first, judging from the current situation, I can only do two things to help him. One is to prevent Maitreya from escaping from the sea of suffering and make Amitabha's efforts to reduce and seek emptiness stagnant. The other is to use multiple methods to help him. I planned to help Xiao Sang rush to the other side and help the Golden Mother get closer to the Tao and Fruit. After ending the grace of becoming a Taoist, I was also sure that the prototype of the Tao and Fruit was qualified to participate in their fight, and the resentment and hatred in my heart still existed, plus Xiao Sang There is no possibility of cooperation with Him.”
"That's why He deliberately provoked me to strike out with that sword. In this way, not only would my path be cut off, and I would no longer have any hope of competing with Him for the Dao fruit in this era, but it would also slow down Master Yuanshi's pace of transcendence and leave hope for Him. As for Maitreya, he would be able to escape from the sea of suffering. When the Golden Mother reveals her true face and Amitabha exposes Empress Fu, it doesn’t matter who I help. But when Xiao Sang rushes to the other side, I will do my best to help if I have the grace to become enlightened. "
"With this matter of killing two birds with one stone, it is self-evident how the Golden Mother chooses."
Listening quietly to Meng Qi's description, Manjusri Guangfa Tianzun couldn't help but sigh: "In ancient times, He was good at planning. After becoming the other side, his grasp of people's hearts and situations is even more chilling."
The key point in this matter is that whether there is the "grace of enlightenment", the master and the disciples will help Jinhuang to reduce the short-term products and impact the other side. In this case, it is obviously impossible for Jinhuang to waste the "grace of enlightenment" on this. In order to maximize the benefits, it would be better to force the master's disciples to commit suicide, and at the same time delay the teacher's progress in attaining enlightenment.
And this key point was deliberately created by the Golden Emperor from the very beginning by manipulating people's hearts and destiny.
Ever since Gu Xiaosang was born, ever since the master disciple was put into the chess game by the demon Buddha, the Golden Emperor has been waiting for this knife!
Just thinking about these details makes me feel like I have been trapped in an eternal ice cave, with coldness and despair coming from my bones.
"But the master disciple must be willing to carry out this sword attack..." Guang Chengzi sighed again, unwilling to see Meng Qi do something that was not worth the gain for the sake of his dreamlike fate.
Meng Qi smiled and then said seriously:
"If I can't make this cut, I will slowly be assimilated into the 'other realm' and become the will of heaven, without any trace of humanity."
"And the way of others is not the way of 'my'."
"This knife cuts off the path, but saves 'me'."
“If there is no more ‘I’, what does it matter if there is no Tao fruit, no detachment but no detachment?”
He didn't say much about this matter. This was an idea created by his own experience, three views and beliefs. It was normal that others could not understand it. Even if the road ahead was difficult and dangerous, or even cut off, he would never look back.
After hundreds of millions of kalpas, after an unknown number of epochs, the difference will be whether it is "Yuanshi Tianzun" Su Meng or simply Yuanshi Tianzun.
After saying this, he turned to look at Gao Lan. The Human Emperor Sword flew out from the bright round light behind his head and threw it at the opponent:
"Brother Imperial, it will be difficult to recover from the Great Monday, but there is a lot to do in the islands of the East China Sea, the various countries of the Conferred Gods, and the four major continents of the Westward Journey. It is not difficult to establish humanity again. I hope that one day, you and I can work side by side."
Gao Lan took the Human Emperor Sword and suddenly felt a little more real about his experience before the change. He laughed and spoke boldly:
"There is no need to provoke me. In my life, I have never fallen behind others. Sooner or later, I will be the emperor of the world and the emperor of heaven."
After saying that, he picked up the pale golden long sword, turned around and walked outside the Yuqing Palace. Seeing this situation, Manjusri reminded: "The God Whip is still under control, don't forget to go to the Tushita Palace to get it."
When Luojiao and Buddhism swept across the world, they did not let go of the Conferred God World. Qi Huangong Xiaobai hid in the Tushita Palace.
Gao Lan pursed his thin lips, nodded slightly, and left with his head held high.
Meng Qi looked at Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu again, smiled and said:
"Don't call me by the wrong name in the future."
Originally, because Meng Qi reached the other side, the round light behind his head was pure and flawless, the auspicious clouds above his head were deep and chaotic, and the golden lanterns and garlands were lingering around him. Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu both felt a strong sense of alienation, as if there was an insurmountable gap between the two sides. The Su Meng they knew before was already a high-ranking figure, but as this sentence came out, Jiang Zhiwei pursed her lips and Ruan Yushu smiled lightly, and they felt that the distance was shortened.
This may be the person on the other side who has the least airs and airs of a big shot.
"Yes, little monk." Jiang Zhiwei replied with a smile, and Ruan Yushu nodded gently.
Meng Qi smiled and said, "If you can deeply understand the spiritual light of your nature and distinguish the 'true' and 'false' caused by historical changes, you will benefit a lot in the future."
After instructing Chi Jingzi and other fellow disciples one after another, Meng Qi asked them to leave separately, and he had to stabilize his own realm first.
When the Yuqing Palace returned to the eternal silence, a bright round light flashed behind his head, and the green and flourishing Avenue Tree loomed, with two illusory Dao fruits, the Overlord's Absolute Sword, and the Three Treasures Ruyi hanging on the branches, and Gu Xiaosang appeared in front of him.
She no longer had the pale face and tearful eyes before, and the whole person seemed to be fine, but there was a little more calmness in her ethereal temperament.
"Don't worry, I'm used to being hit, I won't collapse, I'm just a little confused, and my past self was not shaped by the Golden Emperor." Gu Xiaosang smiled lightly, rarely showing her frankness in front of Meng Qi.
Meng Qi looked at her and said, "The Golden Emperor can only guide, the key lies in your original character. If you can pass the legend, I believe you will slowly come out of it."
Gu Xiaosang laughed softly: "When my husband speaks in this tone, I always feel goosebumps."
She paused and continued: "But I'm always unwilling in my heart. What if I come out? I still have to follow His 'arrangement', motivate myself to move forward with overwhelming hatred, and impact the other side with a resolute mind... It's better to cut myself off and exchange for His hopeless Dao fruit in this era."
"You won't choose this way, it's equivalent to admitting that you are a subsidiary of the Golden Mother and have no meaning of your own existence." Meng Qi smiled and looked at Gu Xiaosang and said, "And you impact the other side not just for the Golden Mother."
"..." Gu Xiaosang was stunned She was stunned for a moment, her brows relaxed, her eyes were charming, "What are you going to say next, my husband?"
Meng Qi coughed lightly and said:
"After achieving the other shore, time is difficult to erode, and it is impossible for everyone around me to reach the other shore. Even if I use all means, after billions of years, after several eras, they will eventually pass away one by one, making me less and less tied to the mortal world, and finally completely isolated, becoming a great man high above."
His voice was bleak, as if he had seen such an ending:
"This requires you to help me achieve the other shore and coexist hand in hand."
Gu Xiaosang's eyes curved a little bit, and then she laughed softly:
"My husband is getting better and better at talking..."
Speaking of this, she turned her eyes and looked outside the Yuxu Palace, smiling:
"There are benefits."
