Chapter 368: Great Goal The leader of the Dragon God Cult is dressed in black...
The leader of the Dragon God Cult wore a black robe embroidered with dark golden dragon patterns that rustled in the wind.
His face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were as cold as a cold pond, and he stared at Kong Qing intently, his eyes full of disbelief.
Behind him was a group of followers lined up in an orderly manner, holding musical instruments, including bells, chimes, zithers, drums, flutes, and shengs. They were full of vigor and had a hint of murderous intent. In the blink of an eye, they had formed a battle formation and trapped Kong Qing.
Kong Qing carefully put Chi Niang and Qi Jue Qin down, quickly formed seals with his hands, and drew a transparent formation that enveloped Chi Niang and Qi Jue Qin.
After finishing, he slowly stood up, bowed respectfully to the leader, and said in a low voice, "Leader."
The leader glanced at Chi Niang, who was no longer breathing. A trace of barely perceptible sadness flashed in his eyes, and then the anger of being betrayed ignited.
He snorted coldly and said angrily, "Master, I still remember clearly what you taught me back then: for the sake of the people and for the advancement of this world, we should do our utmost and be willing to sacrifice everything. Are you going to break that oath yourself now?"
"In consideration of your past contributions to the Dragon God Sect, I can forgive you the crime of betraying the sect, but you must not persist in your wrongdoings and violate the teachings. Have you forgotten the ultimate goal of our Dragon God Sect?"
Kong Qing's face turned pale and he remained silent.
Indeed, he had already realized it and believed that the teachings of the Dragon God Cult were not wrong. Since the outside world did not tolerate them, they would transform the Dragon Realm into a world suitable for them!
To achieve this goal, the followers of the Dragon God Cult have fought bravely, one after another, just to create a glimmer of possibility for the world to advance!
Kong Qing knew that this was not just a fantasy, but could be successful.
Isn’t it a success in the outside world?
It’s just that they follow the orthodox path of cultivation, relying on their spiritual roots to tap into their potential.
However, no one in the Dragon Territory has spiritual roots and cannot practice according to this method.
But the genius in the Dragon Realm was not convinced. He created a new method, set a long-term future, and led the entire world to advance!
The Dragon God Cult is an extension of their will and is unwavering in following this path.
Originally, Kong Qing was a staunch supporter of this path.
But now, he took a look at Chi Niang's body and Qi Jue Qin, who was still confused and unconscious, closed his eyes, and gradually made up his mind.
He raised his head and looked directly into the leader's eyes. "I have never forgotten the teachings of the Dragon God Cult, but I cannot watch my child become an incomplete being, trapped in the zither for the rest of his life, unable to escape."
The leader laughed in anger, "What will happen if you get out? What can you do? You'll still die. You died so easily. As the founder of the Dragon God Sect, what responsibilities should you bear?"
"You are the third peerless Grandmaster of the entire Dragon God Cult to date. You have your own obligations!"
The leader calmed himself down, trying not to get too excited. He spoke word by word, "Master, your mission is to create a more advanced technique for the Dragon God Sect and the entire world, to break free from the shackles and give us the opportunity to advance and touch the laws of heaven!"
They were originally unable to practice, but gradually developed to where they are today, all thanks to the three ancestors.
The first one created a new method of cultivation that controlled dragon energy with sound and incorporated it into the body.
The second one is to build on the existing foundation and explore little by little, allowing them to advance again and again, and eventually be able to rival the masters at the peak of the out-of-body stage.
But this is not enough. The Mahayana stage is the realm where one can touch the rules of heaven.
If they can be promoted to the Mahayana stage, they will be able to comprehend the rules of heaven and thus weave rules that suit them for this world.
When everything is perfect, there will be a chance to break the shackles in one fell swoop, promote ascension, and establish connection with the fairy world.
As the connection strengthens and the path to ascension is completely opened, the Heavenly Dao will recognize their way of ascension, and will bestow the Dao rules that are most suitable for them, and the world will be promoted.
Such a great goal was set by the first founder of the Dragon God Sect with foresight, and perfected by the second founder with painstaking efforts. Kong Qing is the third.
His talent is no less than the first two, and he is even younger, so he has more chances to break through the shackles.
But now, he was actually going to give up, leave the Dragon Territory, and go to the outside world to look for the so-called method of replenishing the soul.
The leader sneered. He would not survive more than a month outside, so how could he find a way to replenish his soul?
"Your sacrifice is meaningless and worthless, yet you are willing to abandon the people and the thousands of years of management and sacrifice of the Dragon God Cult for this. Kong Qing, how selfish you are!"
Kong Qing's face turned even paler, his eyes filled with shame, but he didn't change his mind. "Master, I have failed the Dragon God Sect's cultivation and support. I am willing to accept the punishment, regardless of life or death."
After a pause, he said in a deep voice, "As for the method of breakthrough, I have created the three Fuqin styles. Please see!"
"The Fu Qin style, the Tao has no strings!" A vigorous wave of air gushed out from Kong Qing's body, weaving fifty densely packed strings in the air. As his fingers moved, these strings jumped rhythmically.
One after another, beautiful music came from the sky, making everyone immersed in a feast.
The music played by these strings carries the subtle power of rules. The rules become clearer as the music goes on. Even the people with the lowest cultivation level around can clearly feel the existence of the sea of rules and immerse themselves in the understanding of the great Dao.
Slowly, as the sound of the piano faded, Kong Qing suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The blood bloomed like a red lotus in full bloom, blooming in mid-air and then spilling onto the ground, shocking the sight. His body was shaky, as if a slight breeze could blow him down.
In this short period of time, almost half of the dragon energy in the body was consumed. It seemed as if all the energy had been drained away from the whole person, and he was extremely weak.
But he did not stop. With a turn of his wrist, the fifty strings slowly disappeared.
"This is Fuqin 2, the way of heaven has a voice!"
At the same time, the instruments in everyone's hands vibrated together, playing the simplest and most rustic music, so simple that even beginners could play it.
It is 'Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu', with five notes playing back and forth, which is extremely simple.
But the music played shocked everyone. The music resonated with their hearts. They seemed to be in the sea of Dao, flying freely. Every rule was so clear and naturally reflected in their minds. It was clear and easy to understand, and enlightenment could come anytime and anywhere.
If there were no spiritual power in the Dragon Domain, Xu Hui and the others would have been able to infuse their bodies with spiritual power, break through the shackles in an instant, and advance one after another.
The people in the Dragon Realm had a harder time gaining insights than them because they had no spiritual roots and were restricted by the rules, but they could also clearly see the operating principles and laws of the rules through the sound of the piano.
This glimpse into the way of heaven is enough to assist them in their future practice. They can practice smoothly to the great perfection of the out-of-body stage and are only a step away from a breakthrough.
Kong Qing's move brought great opportunities to everyone in the Dragon God Sect.
But at the same time, he was wasting his own vitality!
His life force was fading rapidly, his hair was falling to the ground in pieces, his youthful appearance was gradually covered with wrinkles, and he became old and frail, and the energy and blood in his body were almost exhausted.
"No, stop now!" Seeing this, the leader's eyes were bloodshot. If this continued, Kong Qing's life would be in danger.
He jumped without hesitation and rushed towards Kong Qing, wanting to forcibly stop this tragedy.
But it's too late!
"Three Fuqin Styles, All Things Are Dao..."
Before he could finish his words, he disappeared without a sound, leaving only the last glimmer of light in his eyes.
The leader and the followers of the Dragon God Cult were stunned on the spot, not understanding why things had developed to this point.
At this time, a figure flashed to Kong Qing's side and fed him a top-grade Qi-replenishing pill and a Time-Preserving Pill.
"Since you put on a show for us, I will save your life." Seeing Kong Qing open his eyes in disbelief, Venerable Jiang Li said lightly, "The top-grade Qi-replenishing pill can instantly replenish your lost Qi and blood and save your life. The Years of Tranquility Pill..."
He glanced at the Qi Jue Qin and said, "The power of the years of quiet guarding can lock up your vitality and strength. A hundred years of skill is enough for you to walk in the outside world."
So, these people, hiding in the Dragon Territory and suffering themselves, are inspiring and ambitious, but they have never thought about establishing contact with the outside world.
Exploring secretly on your own is really...conservative, conservative, and closed-door!
In fact, as long as you communicate, you will find that the monks from outside are still very friendly.
Most importantly, there are multiple ways to help them!
For example, the Time-Guarding Pill, as the Wei family's unique skill, is not easy to refine, and the medicinal materials are also very precious, but they are not to the level of rare treasures.
As long as they take it, people in the Dragon Realm will be able to walk in the outside world for a hundred years without worrying about the dragon energy dissipating and their lives running out!
For example, when it comes to comprehending the laws of nature, the monks from the outside world have even more methods, which are quite diverse.
There is the incomplete sea of laws, the enlightenment tea tree, the Buddhist initiation of Buddha's energy, and even the mind-refining illusion array. Which one can't help them?
Finally, Venerable Jiang Li said casually, "Regarding the Soul-Replenishing Pill, you are very lucky. We are here to find the Yuanhun Fruit. As long as you are willing to provide more Yuanhun Fruits, we can also give you one of the extra Soul-Replenishing Pills we refine."
There is no need to worry about life and death or doctrine here.
Kong Qing: ...
Leader: ...
The two of them had blank expressions, completely unable to understand what Venerable Jiangli meant by those words.
So they went through thousands of years, worked themselves to death, but in the end their efforts were completely in vain?
This blow is comparable to the collapse of faith!
Well, at this point their faith collapsed!
The leader seemed to be crying and laughing, with a distorted expression on his face, and Kong Qing was unable to remain calm and had a strange look on his face.
As for the other members of the Dragon God Sect, they were all at a loss.
So...are they fools?
"Not really," Venerable Jiang Li said quickly, seeing how devastated they were. "You've been able to develop a cultivation method that doesn't require any spiritual roots. This is truly rare in the world, and it has indeed put you on the path to becoming immortals. Without this method, you'd all be mere mortals. This is worthy of recognition!"
I just have to make myself miserable, burn my boats, fight with my back against the wall, and risk everything. If I fail, I will die!
It’s very inspiring, but…it seems like a bit of a serious illness!
