Chapter 118: Planting Golden Lotus in the Sea of Blood, and Condensing the Infant with Merit
"I will borrow your heads for use."
Ji Changsheng behaved very politely and courteously.
But the people of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce could only feel their scalps tingling and death was approaching quickly.
They really want to say, "If you don't want to lend me money, get out!"
But they dare not say it.
Just try Ji Changsheng and he will let them die.
But then again, if they don't try, they will probably die.
Ji Changsheng's sudden action not only shocked them, but also the people of Sheng State.
After all, Ji Changsheng had just killed the number one figure of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce in Sheng Country.
In the minds of the common people of Sheng State, Chao Yuntian's identity is actually more valuable than that of the emperor of Sheng State.
But Ji Changsheng killed him just like killing a chicken.
A lot of things quickly collapsed in their minds.
At the same time, the growth of the golden lotus of merit on Ji Changsheng's head was also reflected in everyone's eyes under the illumination of the Liantian Water Mirror.
Thanks to Tongtian Chamber of Commerce and Liantian Water Mirror, every detail is revealed.
"Elder Ji's Merit Golden Lotus seems to have really grown?"
"It's not that it seems, it's that it's gone up."
"It has an extra petal and is still growing stronger."
"I said that Tongtian Chamber of Commerce is not a good thing, and now it is completely confirmed."
"Tongtian Chamber of Commerce is a righteous immortal sect."
"Oh, there are no demon sects in this world. As there are many righteous sects, there are also demon sects."
…
Obviously, someone was being extreme.
Apart from anything else, in Ji Changsheng's eyes, the Huangquan Sect is an out-and-out demonic sect.
However, Ji Changsheng doesn't have time to correct these misconceptions now.
To correct a wrong, one must go too far.
The focus now is to completely crush the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce.
"Illusion, it must be an illusion."
Not everyone could accept that Ji Changsheng killed Chao Yuntian, but as a result, the Golden Lotus of Merit bloomed new petals.
This situation is really challenging.
When Lu Xingzhen woke up slowly, her worldview was shattered.
Although she was unconscious before, she was able to sense everything happening in the outside world, but her body was controlled by Sheng Jiayan, so she was unable to alert Chao Yuntian.
Now that Chao Yuntian is dead, she is the number one figure of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce in Sheng Country.
When Ji Changsheng kills people, he always likes to kill the big guys first and then the small characters, which makes it easier to advance.
So now it's her turn.
However, Lu Xingzhen was not as mentally resilient as Chao Yuntian, and she was totally unable to accept what was happening before her eyes.
"Senior Brother Chao has always been friendly to his fellow disciples, respectful to teachers, and has never done anything illegal. He is a gentleman praised by everyone in our Tongtian Chamber of Commerce. If you kill him, it will only increase the bloody evil spirit, and there will be no merit or virtue. All of this is an illusion." Lu Xingzhen said loudly.
Ji Changsheng decided to let Lu Xingzhen die with a clear conscience.
As everyone knows, Elder Ji is upright and honest, and he never does things like punishing without teaching.
What's more, there are so many people watching now.
It must be explained clearly.
Ji Changsheng held up a finger and said, "First, as everyone knows, the aura of merit cannot be faked."
Everyone nodded subconsciously.
This is indeed a commonly accepted perception.
But in the final analysis, this cognition was instilled into people all over the world by Xuandu Temple.
If you are not a disciple of Xuandu Temple, you will not understand the spirit of merit.
Disciples of Xuandu Temple who are not from the Yaoguang lineage do not understand the power of Yaoguang Luohuan.
Under the Yaoguang Luohuan, the aura of merit and righteousness can be faked. Of course, fake is fake, and there is no effect.
But not many people know the inside story.
Now it is estimated that only Li Changxi and he understand it. Unless Li Changxi exposes him, the aura of merit cannot be faked, not even the people of the Yaoguang lineage can do it.
Ji Changsheng extended his second finger: "Second, Chao Yuntian is just a gentleman of your Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, not a real gentleman. Do you really think that all these spirit stones of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce were earned by you through fair and just abilities?"
Ji Changsheng showed sarcasm on his face: "What kind of work has Chao Yuntian done since he was born? What kind of value has he created? What kind of good news has he brought to the people of the world? His annual salary is 13 million high-grade spirit stones, and his net worth is... Let me see, wow, there are 57.9 billion high-grade spirit stones in his account."
hiss.
There was a sound of gasps from the entire audience.
Across Sheng Country, many people clenched their fists.
No wonder Elder Ji’s merit and virtue increased after killing Chao Yuntian.
Chao Yuntian's wealth speaks for itself.
These are all the spiritual stones earned through their hard work and blood.
Ji Changsheng said the same thing.
"Lu Xingzhen, you don't think that he deserves all these spirit stones, do you?"
Lu Xingzhen said angrily, "Isn't it? Senior Brother Chao worked hard and practiced hard. Under the leadership of Senior Brother Chao, Tongtian Chamber of Commerce has developed very smoothly in Shengguo, and the income from spiritual stones has increased every year. He deserves all this. Ji Changsheng, you have nothing because you are not working hard enough. You are jealous of Senior Brother Chao."
"Pfft." Ji Changsheng was amused by Lu Xingzhen's words: "I didn't expect Chao Yuntian's efforts to be so valuable. I'm so jealous of him."
"Of course you can't think of it, because you are too lazy. Ji Changsheng, you should look for the reasons from yourself, and don't always blame others. Our Tongtian Chamber of Commerce is not easy to bully..."
Lu Xingzhen didn't finish her words.
Because what Ji Changsheng said was almost enough.
He believed that the people of Shengguo understood what he meant.
So, he can continue to accumulate merits.
really.
After Lu Xingzhen's body was separated, the golden petals on Ji Changsheng's head began to expand and bloom.
Everything is self-explanatory, the golden lotus of merit explains it all.
Ji Changsheng's decisiveness in killing Chao Yuntian and Lu Xingzhen did not arouse resistance from other people in Tongtian Chamber of Commerce.
On the contrary, the other surviving members of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce all knelt on the ground.
Ren Suqiong and Meng Zhenzhen watched coldly. Ren Suqiong whispered, "Tongtian Chamber of Commerce has gone astray. There are too many spirit stones, which have blinded their eyes and made them lose the courage that a cultivator should have."
Meng Zhenzhen confirmed her previous judgment: "From the small details, we can see the big picture. Tongtian Merchants Association is now pitiful, weak, and helpless, but it has money. If it weren't for the rumored background, it would have been divided up by several major sects long ago. This time the master has taken action, and other sects will probably rush in, and Tongtian Merchants Association is doomed."
If the people from Tongtian Chamber of Commerce are willing to fight to the death, this matter will not end well.
In terms of numbers alone, Tongtian Chamber of Commerce has more Jindan cultivators.
Even though they would be defeated by Ji Changsheng and his men in the end, they were not without the ability to fight.
Unfortunately, they didn't have the courage to fight.
Ji Changsheng dared to kill people wantonly, but the people of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce didn't even have the courage to fight.
The battle hasn't even started yet, but Tongtian Chamber of Commerce has already lost.
Cao Ziming's heart was filled with emotion. Seeing the heroic appearance of Junior Brother Ji, he also released his own righteous spirit.
"Junior Brother Ji is right. The people in Tongtian Chamber of Commerce are too weak at heart. Dealing with them is easier than I thought."
Ying Hongye's eyes sparkled, and he said softly, "It's very simple. They are good at bullying ordinary people. When they meet a vicious monster like Changsheng, they can only be bullied. Changsheng is serious. He is really using his sword to continue a page of history for our ancestors."
If the records in her family tree are correct, the Ying Kingdom back then also had this style.
Later, it triggered a joint attack by all the major immortal sects.
In addition, internal problems arose, and eventually the Ying Kingdom, which was close to unifying the world, fell apart.
Ying Hongye was born too late and had never seen the scenery of Ying State in its past.
But today, from Ji Changsheng, Ying Hongye vaguely saw the "grand occasion" that Ying State has always pursued.
"We, the people of Ying country, deserve immortality." Ying Hongye murmured.
Cao Ziming glanced at Ying Hongye.
I always feel that Junior Sister Hongye will one day become Junior Brother Ji's concubine for the sake of Ying State.
But this has nothing to do with him.
He turned his gaze to Du Zongsheng.
Du Zongsheng's face was pale at this time, but his Taoist heart had not completely collapsed and he was much stronger than Lu Xingzhen.
Du Zongsheng understood what Cao Ziming meant.
Ji Changsheng's actions completely touched Cao Ziming.
Cao Ziming wanted to follow suit.
But Du Zongsheng absolutely could not accept this outcome. He reminded him in a deep voice: "Junior brother, Ji Changsheng has already given up everything. After tonight, he will completely cut himself off from the righteous path. If you follow his example and attack me, do you want to join the Demon Sect from now on?"
Cao Ziming hesitated slightly.
He also knew in his heart that what Junior Brother Ji did must be correct, but it was definitely not in accordance with reason and law.
If he imitated Junior Brother Ji, Danqing Pavilion would probably have a hard time tolerating him.
Just when Cao Ziming hesitated, Ji Changsheng's voice came: "Senior Brother Cao, let me do it."
"Junior Brother Ji, I..."
Cao Ziming didn't want Ji Changsheng to be under so much pressure.
But before he could finish his words, Ji Changsheng raised his hand to stop him.
"Killing one is killing, killing three is killing, it makes no difference to me. I have killed the little daughter of the president of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, so Du Zongsheng is nothing, but it is too much pressure for you. Brother Cao, I still hope you can stay in Danqing Pavilion and continue to do justice."
We have to keep someone from Danqing Pavilion.
He killed Du Zongsheng to pave the way for Senior Brother Cao, not to let Senior Brother Cao cut off his own path.
The Demonic Sect only has one Ren Suqiong, and with Senior Brother Cao's talent and character, he still has more development prospects in Danqing Pavilion.
Ji Changsheng persuaded Cao Ziming.
Then he picked up Du Zongsheng with one hand.
Du Zongsheng was forced to kneel down, but he still maintained calm thinking and quickly released his righteous spirit.
"Elder Ji, you can't kill me." Du Zongsheng said in a deep voice: "I am different from Chao Yuntian and Lu Xingzhen. My righteous spirit can prove everything."
Just like the spirit of merit, it is well known that the spirit of righteousness cannot be faked.
So Du Zongsheng believed that he still had bargaining chips.
Ji Changsheng portrayed himself as a messenger of justice, so he would use his own spear to attack his own shield.
Ji Changsheng nodded: "Haoran righteousness can indeed prove everything, but don't you think your Haoran righteousness is a little insufficient? Senior Brother Cao, let the people of Shengguo see the true Haoran light of the disciples of Danqing Pavilion."
As soon as Ji Changsheng finished speaking, Cao Ziming's body was filled with light. Pure white righteous energy rose into the sky, even overshadowing the golden light above Ji Changsheng's head, and shining brightly in the Liantian Water Mirror.
Du Zongsheng was also surrounded by a sense of righteousness.
But compared with Cao Ziming's righteousness, the difference is obvious.
Simply put, Du Zongsheng's righteousness is like the light of a firefly, while Cao Ziming's righteousness is like the bright moon in the sky.
They are not on the same level at all.
This gap shocked many people.
Including Du Zongsheng himself.
This also includes Du Zongsheng’s bootlicker Fu Xiaojing.
"Brother, why...why do you have so little righteousness?"
Fu Xiaojing was a prisoner at this time.
It was Cao Ziming who did it.
Ji Changsheng had originally forgotten about her, but Cao Ziming felt that Junior Brother Ji would be able to expose Du Zongsheng's true identity today, so he called Fu Xiaojing along.
Of course, he didn't forget to give the medicine in advance.
It's not that I have any bad intentions, I just don't want to fight with Fu Xiaojing.
Junior Brother Ji said that bootlickers are blind.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He was not sure whether he could wake Fu Xiaojing up, and even less sure whether Fu Xiaojing would continue to fight for Du Zongsheng under such circumstances. So just in case, he controlled Fu Xiaojing first to avoid causing trouble for Junior Brother Ji.
At this moment, Fu Xiaojing was just as Cao Ziming thought. Her mentality exploded, and her eyes that always showed admiration and love turned into disbelief: "Brother, have you really done a lot of wrong things in secret?"
"No, I didn't." Du Zongsheng gritted his teeth and said, "I have never done anything that goes against the way of chivalry, and I have never betrayed the righteousness of the people."
"Yes, as the number one person in the Golden Core Realm and the young leader of the Danqing Pavilion, he certainly wouldn't take the initiative to harm others."
Ji Changsheng did not force the blame on Du Zongsheng.
Danqing Pavilion and Tongtian Chamber of Commerce are still different.
The reason why Du Zongsheng is admired by so many great people in Danqing Pavilion is that there is actually nothing wrong with what he does.
"Du Zongsheng, your hands are clean because someone is doing the dirty work for you. You have never betrayed your righteousness because someone has betrayed you and you just sit back and reap the benefits. That's why your combat power is getting higher and higher, but your righteousness is increasing slowly. Obviously, your combat power is much higher than Brother Cao's, but your righteousness is not even half of Brother Cao's."
Ji Changsheng sneered, "You are not in charge of the affairs of Danqing Fudi in Shengguo, but you dare to say that you don't know? Danqing Fudi has harmed countless people in Shengguo. It was indeed not your intention at first, but didn't you benefit from it? Du Zongjiang, as your younger brother, secretly eliminated a peerless genius like Zhuo Fanghua who posed a threat to you. It was indeed not your order, but you dare to say that it had nothing to do with you?"
"I...I didn't do anything."
This is the only way Du Zongsheng could defend himself.
Even though the disciples of Danqing Pavilion have many faults, they dare not lie easily because of their great righteousness.
Du Zongsheng didn't dare either.
Otherwise, he would not be able to bear the consequences of his righteous spirit backlashing against him in public.
"Your crime is because you did nothing." Ji Changsheng said coldly: "With your identity, you can do a lot of things, but you finally chose to do nothing. Not only did you do nothing, but your identity also made you a vested interest and an accomplice. Danqing Fudi sucked the blood of thousands of people in Shengguo and nurtured you, the number one golden elixir master. Du Zongsheng, are you innocent?"
Du Zongsheng gritted his teeth and said, "Ji Changsheng, no matter how much you frame me, I still did nothing. Even if the Du family is guilty, it has nothing to do with me. Danqing Pavilion can send people to investigate, and Xianmen can also send an investigation team. If you find any mistakes on my part, I am willing to admit my guilt, but I will never accept your framing."
Ji Changsheng narrowed his eyes.
Du Zongsheng is a smart man.
Much smarter than Chao Yuntian and Lu Xingzhen.
And he is much more cunning.
Wei Zhongxian had searched the Du family thoroughly, but could not find any direct evidence of Du Zongsheng's guilt.
Cao Ziming also interrogated Du Zongsheng, but found nothing.
Ji Changsheng actually believed that what Du Zongsheng said was true, and Du Zongsheng had clearly cleared himself.
From beginning to end, he might really have done nothing.
Just enjoying the most sinful benefits.
Such a person cannot be punished according to the law.
Ji Changsheng ordered: "Bring Yu Qingqing up."
A moment later, Yu Qingqing appeared on the scene.
Ji Changsheng also specifically explained to the people of Sheng State the origin of Yu Qingqing: a disciple of the law enforcement elder of the Discipline Hall of Xuandu Temple, and the leader of the Xianmen investigation team.
"Senior Sister Yu, what do you think about Du Zongsheng's matter?"
Yu Qingqing said in a deep voice: "Innocent until proven guilty."
Ji Changsheng sighed: "Senior Sister Yu, do you really believe that he has nothing to do with Danqing Blessed Land?"
"Without evidence, it's irrelevant. Changsheng, stop it. I know you are speaking up for the people of Sheng Country, but your current behavior is tantamount to suicide." Yu Qingqing persuaded patiently.
Hearing Yu Qingqing say this, countless people in Sheng Country were moved.
They also realized that although Elder Ji was helping them, he was obviously trying to overturn the table.
Those who carry firewood for others will most likely freeze to death in the snow and wind.
Almost everyone understands this principle.
So few people will do it.
Elder Ji stood up.
It's hard not to be moved by them.
Ji Changsheng also heard Yu Qingqing's intention to help him become famous, but he did not deliberately perform. Instead, he sighed from the bottom of his heart: "Senior Sister Yu, I think Du Zongsheng deserves to die more than Du Zongjiang. He is a greater evil. But greater evil is often impossible to punish by law. What do you think, is there something wrong with the "Xianmen Convention"? "
"Junior brother, be careful with your words."
Ji Changsheng said casually: "I have done what I have done. I have also killed the little daughter of the president of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce. Senior Sister Yu, do you think I am still afraid of violating the "Xianmen Convention"? Senior Sister Yu, do you want to make a bet?"
"What bet?"
"Kill Du Zongsheng and see if your merit energy will increase."
Yu Qingqing's expression suddenly changed: "Changsheng, don't be stubborn."
"Senior Sister Yu, I also come from Xuandu Temple. Although Xuandu Temple is not as beautiful as I imagined, it is still a place where people can teach and answer questions. You and I are from the same school, and today I will help you reach your Nascent Soul stage."
Ji Changsheng did not give Yu Qingqing a chance to refuse.
He directly placed the Sad Demon Knife in Yu Qingqing's hand, and then held Yu Qingqing's hand.
Controlled Yu Qingqing's body.
He made sure that everyone in Sheng Country would see that it was he who controlled Yu Qingqing, but it was Yu Qingqing who killed the person.
"Junior Brother Ji, stop, stop!"
Amid Yu Qingqing's "panicked" attempt to stop him, Du Zongsheng showed an unwilling look on his face and his head fell to the ground.
Ji Changsheng let go.
An aura of merit and virtue suddenly appeared above Yu Qingqing's head.
The momentum is rising steadily.
Soon, in full view of everyone, a golden pill appeared on Yu Qingqing's forehead, and then the pill shattered into a baby.
Yu Qingqing was officially promoted to Nascent Soul cultivator!
Ji Changsheng smiled and said: "Congratulations, Senior Sister, for breaking the pill and becoming an infant. From now on, you will be listed as a true disciple of Xuandu and live forever!"
Yu Qingqing wanted to say something but stopped herself.
Ji Changsheng really took care of her in every aspect.
The true test given to her by the temple master was to use Du Zongsheng as a sacrifice to advance to the Nascent Soul stage.
Ji Changsheng helped her kill Du Zongsheng, and although the situation was completely different from what she had initially imagined, the result was the same.
Her accumulation was originally enough to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, but she had just been honing her realm.
After killing Du Zongsheng, she did feel a surge in her energy of merit.
With the massive initiation of merit, she was successfully promoted to the Nascent Soul stage without any problems.
It also conforms to the political correctness of Xuandu Temple.
However, this method of promotion will scare all the crooked monks in the world.
"Changsheng, this is against the rules." Yu Qingqing could only say this.
Ji Changsheng smiled and said, "Senior Sister Yu, has your Qi of Merit increased?"
Yu Qingqing couldn't lie: "It skyrocketed."
Ji Changsheng shrugged: "I was a righteous disciple who did not violate the "Xianmen Covenant". After being killed by my senior sister, my senior sister's merits skyrocketed. Senior sister, do you still think there is something wrong with me?"
Yu Qingqing was silent.
Ji Changsheng gave enough face to Yu Qingqing, which was also enough face to Xuandu Temple: "Sister, a real man has his own way of doing things and his own way of not doing things. I know what I am doing, and I am willing to pay the price for what I have done. Please don't stop me tonight, I want to cultivate merit for myself, seek welfare for the people of Shengguo, and strengthen the fortune of my human race. After dawn, I will bear all the consequences."
Xuandu Temple cannot support him because his process is indeed unjust. Supporting him would mean making an enemy of other sects.
But the spirit of merit is the political correctness of Xuandu Temple.
After Ji Changsheng and Yu Qingqing finished their "experiment" on Du Zongsheng, Yu Qingqing had enough reasons to stand by and watch.
Yu Qingqing remained silent.
Silence is the default attitude.
Xuandu Temple, remain neutral!
Ji Changsheng laughed out loud.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Yu, for your understanding of justice!"
We must distinguish who are enemies and who are friends.
Ji Changsheng was very clear about the distinction tonight.
Give your friends enough face and respect.
Give the enemy enough bullets and butcher knives.
Of course, Ji Changsheng is indeed not a bloodthirsty person.
He said so himself.
"Everyone, Ji is not bloodthirsty, and killing people has never been my goal."
"I only kill those who deserve to be killed. Half of you don't deserve to be killed."
"Tonight, in front of everyone, all the bad debts of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce will be exposed to the world. As long as your net worth does not exceed the actual one million spiritual stones, or you have no criminal record of murder or arson, you will surrender and you will not be killed."
"Of course, for those whose wealth is too abnormal, I can only say sorry. You can try to kill me."
Ji Changsheng was not afraid that this group of people would become desperate and kill innocent people.
He is not afraid of the "Xianmen Convention" and the Linglong Sword Order, but these spineless people will definitely be afraid.
For those who practice spiritual cultivation, death is not even the end.
Unless it is a demon of the level of Yu Lao Mo, no one would dare to violate the taboo and risk the world's condemnation.
These people in Sheng State don't have that courage.
There might be a glimmer of hope if he fought with Ji Changsheng, but if he attacked ordinary people, he would be dancing under the sword of Fairy Linglong.
Shengguo, I can’t sleep tonight.
Ji Changsheng quickly got the first batch of names.
Then, he walked into a sea of corpses and blood.
Half an hour later.
In the sea of blood, a golden lotus emerged, surrounded by golden light.
Amidst the visions of merit and virtue, a miniature version of Ji Changsheng appeared before the eyes of the people of Sheng State, dignified and extraordinary, with immeasurable merit and virtue.
Plant golden lotus in the sea of blood, and condense the Nascent Soul with your merits!
After Ji Changsheng killed the 139th person, he officially entered the Nascent Soul stage!
