Chapter 14: Doomsday in the Illusion
Ji Changsheng gathered his mind and sensed it. It was already late at night. Xuandu Temple was usually quiet because of the small number of disciples, but it was obviously noisy tonight.
This night is likely to be a long one.
Ji Changsheng had also made some decorations in Bai Guanlin's room. Maybe there would be some unexpected surprises later, but Ji Changsheng would definitely not wait there now.
He quickly returned to his residence and entered the illusion again.
During the previous assassination attempt on Bai Guanlin, the robes on Bai Guanlin's body clearly had the function of automatically protecting the master, causing him to suffer some minor internal injuries.
He had to restore himself to his best condition before dawn.
In addition, in order to prevent the Bai family from really having any means to track him down as the real murderer, he also needs to make some preparations in advance.
…
Illusion.
Jiangyuan County.
County Magistrate Sha Zhengping was entertaining a young man of distinguished status.
He just looked sad and smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, I really don't know why the immortal came to Jiangyuan County before, and I don't know where the immortal is now."
Prince Dali was restless: "Lord Sha, the master team I assembled in the capital has been annihilated in Lanke Temple. That immortal may be the last hope for us Dali."
Sha Zhengping continued to smile bitterly: "Your Highness, I naturally hope that the immortal will come and quell the beast tide, but I really can't grasp the whereabouts of the immortal."
"Is there no way to summon the immortal to come?" The prince didn't want to give up.
As long as he could rely on himself, he would never pin his hopes on gods or immortals.
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already covered in wounds after being beaten by the tide of monsters.
In the current Dali Dynasty, the emperor has completely laid down his life, living a life of drunkenness and dreams, waiting for the day when monsters will break into the palace.
Even most of the civil and military officials in the court have already laid down and given up.
They had struggled hard, but faced with the tide of monsters that had completely lost their minds, they were defeated time and time again, and ultimately had no choice but to wait for death.
Only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still young.
He didn't want to die yet and wanted to struggle a little longer.
Now all the people with lofty ideals in the world have gathered around the prince, standing on the front line against the tide of monsters, but the situation has not improved at all.
Only recently, in Jiangyuan County, it was heard that an immortal had suddenly descended and averted the disaster of Jiangyuan County's destruction.
When the prince first heard the news, he thought someone was spreading rumors.
As more and more people started talking about it, the prince finally couldn't sit still anymore and came to Jiangyuan County in person.
After much investigation, he realized that an immortal had actually descended, and the prince almost cried for joy.
Unfortunately, he soon discovered that it was too early for him to be happy.
Immortals come quickly and leave even faster.
But he had no idea how to pray to the immortal to come again.
We can only place our hopes on Jiangyuan County and its governor Sha Zhengping.
But Sha Zhengping also disappointed him.
"Your Highness, I have reviewed the situation countless times. The immortal descended without any regularity that day. When I was completely desperate, the immortal suddenly descended. I don't know how he was summoned."
The prince was an wise ruler. Although he suffered a great blow, he still maintained very rational thinking.
"Master Sha, think carefully about what happened before the immortal came, or what you said to the people around you. This is very important."
Although the prince was very anxious, he did not say anything bad to Sha Zhengping.
The end of the world has arrived, and the Dali Dynasty is on the verge of collapse. Using status to pressure others is the stupidest choice at this time.
Sha Zhengping also knew the seriousness of the matter.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has killed most of the remaining masters of the Dali Dynasty who still had the ability to fight in the Lanke Temple. According to the current situation in the world, within half a year, Dali will inevitably follow the fate of the grassland and become a paradise for monsters.
The immortal is their only lifeline.
What happened before the immortal came that day? My daughter seemed to have said something.
What was that about?
Sha Zhengping's eyes suddenly lit up: "I remembered, I thought I was going to die that day, so I hoped my daughter would leave before the monsters attacked the city.
"I won't leave. I say that since there are monsters in this world, isn't there an immortal or bodhisattva who can save people from suffering? I am willing to pay any price, just to ask an immortal to come to the world and save people from suffering.
“Then the immortal came.
"Could it be that the coming of the immortal has something to do with my daughter?"
The prince's eyes also lit up and hope began to grow in his heart.
"Where is Miss Sha?"
"Your Highness, wait a moment. I will send my daughter to meet His Highness right away."
"No, I will go see Miss Sha in person."
The prince now dares not to be arrogant at all.
It shows respect for the wise and humble to the extreme.
When the prince saw Sha Jiangxue, he was not attracted by the heroic Sha Jiangxue at first. Instead, he looked at the portrait hanging high on the wall of Sha Jiangxue's room.
In the picture, there is a magnificent and gorgeous fairy gate with carved dragons and painted phoenixes.
At this time, the door opened, and an immortal with outstanding demeanor, ethereal and compassionate appearance walked out.
When the prince saw this portrait, he immediately felt the urge to worship it.
“Is this the legendary immortal?”
Sha Zhengping nodded and said, "Since that day, my daughter has become the most loyal believer of the immortal. She asked a painter from Jiangyuan County to paint this picture, and then burned incense and worshiped him every day."
The conversation between Sha Zhengping and the prince made Sha Jiangxue look at the two of them.
Sha Zhengping hurriedly explained his purpose.
The prince added: "Miss Sha, if you can invite the immortal to come, you will be able to help the world of Dali regain its glory."
Sha Jiangxue shook his head and said, "Your Highness, I have no connection with the immortal."
The prince's heart sank, but he still tried hard: "Miss Sha, try again, maybe you have accidentally formed some bond with the immortal?"
Sha Jiangxue continued to shake her head.
She dreams of forming a bond with an immortal.
In her life and death moment.
A handsome young immortal descended from the sky on a colorful cloud and saved her and her family from the danger.
This feeling of gratitude directly made Sha Jiangxue a loyal believer of Ji Changsheng.
The kind that has to help count the money after selling something.
Unfortunately, the immortal has gone far away.
However, her father and the prince looked at her expectantly. Sha Jiangxue could only helplessly say, "Forget it. I'll try, but don't hold your hopes too high. Since there are monsters in this world, aren't there immortals and bodhisattvas who can save people from suffering? I am willing to pay any price, just to ask for immortals to come to the world and save people from suffering."
The prince and Sha Zhengping both held their breath.
They looked around nervously.
Sha Jiangxue sighed inwardly and continued to pray devoutly and silently for the immortal.
Right at this moment.
Suddenly, there was a deafening cheer outside the room.
"The Immortal is here again!"
"The immortal has arrived, and we are saved."
"The immortals will enjoy eternal happiness!"
The prince was overjoyed and blurted out: "Miss Sha, you said you had no contact with the immortal."
At this moment, the prince made a decision that Sha Jiangxue would be his biological mother from now on and he must treat her well.
And, a thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that the immortal likes beauty? He actually responded to the call of the believer. If so, then it would be easy to deal with.
Sha Jiangxue herself was surprised and delighted.
She had no idea what was going on.
The three of them hurried out of the room and found that the ethereal portal appeared again in the sky.
The immortal had just walked out of the portal, looking as ethereal and compassionate as ever.
Sha Jiangxue was shaking with excitement and she unconsciously knelt on the ground with tears streaming down her face.
Ji Changsheng could not understand her feelings for him at all.
He doesn't know anyone.
This time, Ji Changsheng entered this illusion in order to try whether he could practice the Hundred Souls Banner.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Get more merit.
And explore what the so-called illusion is all about.
He did not look at Jiang Yuanjun, Sha Jiangxue and others below, but looked towards the northwest.
From the far northwest, a strong aura of blood, evil and demonic energy came. Even though there were thousands of miles between them, it could not stop the spread of the demonic energy, so that Ji Changsheng could not ignore it.
"Li Changxi said that there is a doomsday disaster in the illusion. If nothing unexpected happens, that place may be the source of the doomsday of the illusion. This kind of momentum... feels like it is a little stronger than me now."
Ji Changsheng frowned slightly, feeling the situation was tricky.
It seemed that the doomsday crisis of this fantasy world was more troublesome than he had expected.
Ji Changsheng withdrew his gaze and decided to familiarize himself with the specific situation of this fantasy world first.
Just as he made the decision, he heard a voice calling from below: "Meet the Immortal."
"I beg the immortal to come down to earth!"
"Please ask the immortal to come down to earth and save the people from the water and fire. The people of Dali will surely worship the immortal day and night and shed tears of gratitude."
…
Ji Changsheng's hearing was in the late stage of foundation building, so he could naturally hear the call from below.
He looked carefully and it seemed to be the city that he had not had time to observe when he came here last time.
At a glance, they are basically all ordinary people. Occasionally there are a few with strong auras, but none of them can surpass Qi Refining.
Ji Changsheng responded to the call of the believers below, and the next moment, he rode on a colorful auspicious cloud and arrived above the County Governor's Mansion in the center of Jiangyuan County.
With his vision at the late stage of foundation building, it was not difficult for him to find that this was the county governor's mansion.
The difficulty lies in the cultivation in the late stage of foundation building, and one cannot ride on the seven-colored auspicious cloud.
Fortunately, Ji Changsheng is the descendant of the Yaoguang lineage.
The Yaoguang lineage's magic is unique in the world, its realm can directly reach Daluo, and it can make the false become true.
In this world, no one can expose him for being so pretentious.
really.
When Ji Changsheng arrived above the County Magistrate's Mansion on a colorful cloud, everyone, including His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, knelt down devoutly.
"Everyone, get up."
Ji Changsheng dispersed the colorful auspicious clouds and used illusions which consumed his true energy and magic power. He just did it for show, and they would figure out the rest in their own imaginations.
After appearing in front of everyone, Ji Changsheng looked directly at the prince.
"Are you the leader?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince kowtowed three times respectfully, until his forehead bled, and then he replied excitedly: "Your Majesty, I am the Crown Prince of Dali."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Dali Dynasty is second only to the emperor and above everyone else.
Ji Changsheng nodded, then gently shook his sleeves, and the next moment, everyone stood up from the ground involuntarily.
This irresistible and powerful magic power made them even more excited.
He is indeed an immortal.
Much better than them.
"Just stand up and talk. Tell me what happened in your world. I inspected the heavens and found that your small world was in trouble with monsters. That's why I sent a clone to investigate."
The prince was shaking with increasing excitement.
Surveying the heavens.
It seems that even in the upper realm, immortals are extremely powerful.
But while the prince was excited, he was also a little confused: "Isn't the immortal a Taoist master, not an Arhat Bodhisattva from the Western religion?"
Ji Changsheng's heart moved, and he asked calmly: "Why do you say that?"
The prince reported: "According to what Lan Ke Temple said, the world we are in is a subsidiary world under the Three Thousand Buddha Kingdoms of the Western Religion. I thought it was the Arhat Bodhisattva of the Western Religion who came. Please forgive me, immortal."
Ji Changsheng: “?”
Where is the illusion that we promised?
Li Changxi does have a big problem.
in addition.
Western religion.
Three thousand Buddha lands.
This seems to be consistent with what Li Changxi said.
Could it be that the current main timeline is really after the Conferred Gods War?
If this is the case, the world view of this Battle of the Gods is a bit large, as there are so many small worlds underneath.
"The Western Church has had some problems recently. I am the Great Emperor of Longevity in the South Pole. I am in charge of life and death, reward and punishment for good and evil, making clouds and rain, and slaying demons and monsters. The trouble with monsters in your world is also under my jurisdiction."
Ji Changsheng decided to give it a try.
The prince was ecstatic: "It turned out to be the Supreme Divine Sky Jade Pure True King Changsheng Great Emperor Tongtian Yuansheng Tianzun."
Ji Changsheng asked calmly, "Have you heard of my name?"
The prince replied, "Your Majesty, there is a record in Lan Ke Temple that the Emperor is one of the Six Heavenly Kings, and resides in the Jade Purity Palace of the High Divine Sky. In the Nine Heavens, he incarnated as the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder Sound Universal Transformation Heavenly Lord and resided in the Jade Pivot Palace to command the Thunder Department."
Ji Changsheng's eyes flashed.
There is something special about this Lanke Temple.
"Lan Ke Temple? Is it in the northwest direction?"
The prince was convinced: "The emperor is very observant."
Ji Changsheng said in a deep voice: "It seems that it is the place where the most monsters gather, and the evil spirit is terrifying. It is completely unlike the holy land of the Western Church."
The prince smiled bitterly, "The Emperor has boundless magical powers and saw through the truth at a glance. The monster problem originated from Lan Ke Temple. The monk Wuxin in Lan Ke Temple is said to be the reincarnation of an arhat, with a deep affinity with Buddhism. He failed to ascend to the Buddha's kingdom a year ago and has since become a demon. He has spread his demonic energy to the entire world, causing monsters to lose their minds and all living things to suffer. I once organized all the masters in the world to break into Lan Ke Temple and try to solve the problem from the source, but the master team was wiped out. If the Emperor does not come, I am afraid we can only wait for death."
Ji Changsheng seemed to be thinking about something.
"Please, Your Majesty, slay the demons and monsters. The people of Dali will be grateful to Your Majesty and worship you day and night. If Your Majesty needs anything, I will do my best and will never let You down."
The prince knelt down at Ji Changsheng's feet again.
Ji Changsheng pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Okay, then I will go to Lanke Temple."
It is hard to say whether the truth can be found out, but killing monsters to gain merit and refining the Hundred Souls Banner is a must.
Lan Ke Temple, a ready-made base for killing monsters! (End of this chapter)
