"My common surname is Wu, and my single name is the word 'Yi'. My late master personally gave me the Taoist title 'Zuowang'." The soul captured from the little kid's Dharma image is no longer as arrogant and frivolous as the little kid. Instead, he became a well-behaved ascetic.
The holographic image on the opposite side, like interrogating a prisoner, asked unceremoniously: "What is your identity in Xuantian Sect?"
"I am the third generation founder of the Xuantian Sect." Speaking of this, the Taoist priest named Wu Yi showed a bit of pride in his tone.
It is true that there are thousands of Taoists in the world, but only a few can eventually become the founders of the generation.
Why is the Earth Immortal called Taoist? In fact, it is somewhat similar to the Golden Pill Grandmaster. It means that the achievements have reached a certain height.
The reason why Master Jindan can be called a master is because he has reached the level of teaching disciples.
Kindergarten teachers are also teachers!
The Earth Immortal Taoist Ancestor, the reason why he is called the Taoist Ancestor, means that he has become the founder of a certain path in cultivating Taoism.
Of course, in the earliest days, this "ancestor" was still relatively strict. You really had to blaze an unprecedented path to be qualified to be respected as an "ancestor".
For example, there are no talismans in the world, but someone pioneered the way of talismans, then he is the ancestor of talismans.
But later on, the predecessors had pretty much paved the way, and no matter how much future generations tried to create an untravelled road, they would never find any opportunity.
This "ancestor" standard had to be lowered step by step.
Finally, as long as one's cultivation has reached the Earthly Immortal Realm and it can be said that there is "no way out" in the mortal world, one is qualified to be called "Tao Ancestor".
In fact, this is not unreasonable.
Even if people can't create any new roads, they still stand at the pinnacle that mortals can reach, standing together with the ancestors who created these roads.
However, the holographic image had no feeling for Taoist Zuowang's pride. Instead, he shook his head and continued to ask: "Then, let's talk about the matter of sealing the mountain and hiding in the world! Was it you who took the lead?"
The performance of this holographic image can be said to have no respect for the Earth Immortal Dao Ancestor. It is completely like a police interrogating a suspect.
The holographic image is just an image, and the real "interrogator" behind it is actually the two distracting incarnations of Qingpao and Baiyi.
In the eyes of Qingpao and Baiyi, whether they are Taoist Zuowang or some kind of ghost king, they have only one identity here, and that is "prisoner".
Moreover, the reason why this "prisoner" became a prisoner is not very glorious.
So, why should we ask for respect from others
"Yes, the matter of hiding from the world and avoiding disasters was presided over by me." Taoist Zuowang nodded, and there was nothing worth concealing in this matter, and then said with emotion: "At that time, the sect objected There are many people, but how can they understand my difficulties! "
Although this so-called seclusion sounds like a good thing, it is actually not very popular.
Closing the door and cutting off communication between inside and outside not only blocks the disasters outside, but also blocks the opportunities outside.
Your cousin, the Immortal Taoist Ancestor, has reached the end of his mortal life, so naturally he doesn’t need to care about the opportunities outside.
But what about the disciples in this sect
Without opportunities and experience, everyone can only work behind closed doors and hope to achieve something by accumulating bit by bit.
Although, even if communication between inside and outside is not cut off, many people may not have any opportunities in their lifetime.
However, people just "will never give up until they see the Yellow River" and "will never look back until they hit the south wall."
You don’t let them see the south wall, or even hit it.
They always feel in their hearts that there may be a possibility, that is, a road to heaven.
Therefore, I am afraid that most people in the Xuantian Sect would not agree with the matter of hiding from the world to avoid disaster.
"The reason?" The holographic image did not conceal its curiosity, and its tone softened a bit, and asked: "We would like to hear what the reason is for you to drag the whole sect into hiding with you. World."
"The difficulties..." Taoist Zuowang pondered for a moment, and then breathed out a sigh of relief, even though the soul did not need to breathe, and said: "Didn't you already see it? That ghost king's dharma image belongs to me. In the past life, this was the reason why I had to hide from the world to avoid disaster.”
Since the Dharma Appearance is a sublimation of one's own Dao, no one stipulates that the Dharma Appearance must be the same as the Yuan Shen or Soul.
Just like Cangquan Daojun's Dharma appearance is a cold spring.
Therefore, there is a huge difference in the image between the ghost king's dharma and the soul of the Taoist Zuowang, which is not so difficult to understand.
But now, Taoist Zuowang has added another explanation besides common sense.
"Previous life? What do you mean, you were this kind of ghost king in your previous life, so in order to avoid being known by others, you simply chose to hide in the world to avoid disaster?" The holographic image is a little unbelievable, but it is not the unbelievable kind of disbelief, but I feel like Taoist Zuowang is making a fuss out of a molehill.
To be honest, although "blood", "ghost" and "bones" are all signs of people in the devil's path in people's consensus, it does not mean that the righteous path cannot be touched at all.
After all, judging from ancient legends, the Underworld is on the side of the Immortal Court.
Therefore, you cannot say that the king of hell, the judge, impermanence, etc., these public officials of the underworld are all demons.
"If it's just the reincarnation of the Ghost King, I don't need to worry too much, but what if he is also fused with the Great Seal of Lord Yama?" Taoist Zuowang said this, his face looked a little helpless, and he even used "him" to describe it. One's own past life.
"The seal of the King of Hell?" The holographic image was even more surprised.
But Taoist Zuowang was not proud of this. He still had a wry smile on his face and said: "Otherwise, how could he have been reincarnated so many times after the collapse of the world and still not completely lose his true spirit!"
In the past, when the heaven and the earth were not shattered, the underworld was still functioning normally. If the ascetics wanted to reincarnate and rebuild, they only needed to take care of the judges and impermanence.
After the collapse of heaven and earth, the entire underworld has been abandoned. The ascetics have to face a big problem after reincarnation and rebuilding, which is the so-called "mystery in the womb".
It is said that if the "mystery of the womb" cannot be solved, everything in the past life will be forgotten, and there will be no need to think about whether to rebuild it again.
Probably, after the underworld was abandoned, the will of heaven and earth added a patch in reincarnation to make up for the lack of Meng Po Tang.
Otherwise, even if not everyone can be reincarnated, there are still many ghosts who have the opportunity to be reincarnated. Wouldn't there be a lot of young and mature reincarnations in this world
And the reincarnated ghost king will also face the problem of the mystery in the womb, unless there is some magic weapon that can immobilize the true spirit.
According to Taoist Zuowang, since this Ghost King has used the Great Seal of the King of Hell, it is not surprising that he can maintain the immortal spirit.
"You've been talking about 'him', isn't that your past life?" The holographic image did not forget the key point in the other person's words, and asked the question very directly.
"How can it be so easy to explain past and future lives!" Taoist Zuowang smiled, shook his head slightly, and said, "If there were no past lives, wouldn't I be who I am?"
Zuowang Taoist's words are somewhat philosophical.
Just like the so-called ultimate thinking of mankind:
who I am
Where do I come from
Where am I going
What Master Zuowang said is that between "past life" and "this life", which one is "I"
If there was no past life, would there be no present life
That's obviously wrong!
After all, the number of people in the world fluctuates and changes, and overall it is increasing, not a constant value.
If everyone has a past life, how do we explain the extra people
Moreover, the chicken lays the egg, and the egg lays the chicken, so what are the previous lives
So, it turns out that not everyone has a past life.
Not everyone is reincarnated as a ghost, and a large number of people have their souls conceived in the womb.
So, this comes back to the question of Taoist Zuowang. Which one is "me" in the "past life" or the "this life"
"So, what we have captured now is only your soul in this life, and where is your previous life still?" The holographic image did not consider the philosophical issues, but chose to accept it first.
This is just like when someone is solving a problem. I may not know where this theorem comes from, but as long as I know that I can get the correct answer by putting it into the problem.
The holographic image, or Qingpao and Baiyi, are too lazy to study the past and present issues, so why not just treat Zuowang Taoist as a split personality!
What past life? What this life!
That is split personality. One is the personality of Taoist Zuowang, and the other is the personality of the ancient ghost king.
Then, is there anything else that’s hard to understand
"Actually, when I was sealing the mountain, I arranged the Six Desire Demon Realm. In addition to sealing the mountain to avoid disaster, it was also to weaken his power." Taoist Zuowang mentioned another piece of information to explain the power of the Six Desire Demon Realm. question.
After all, when Zuowang Taoist sealed the mountain, he was only at the level of the Earthly Immortal Realm.
Although it is not that difficult to arrange a large mountain-sealing formation with the cultivation level of the Earthly Immortal Realm.
However, it is not that easy for this formation to evolve into a Jedi and become one of the most powerful areas in the Shenhua Realm for thousands of years.
And now, Taoist Zuowang has finally given the answer. The reason why he was able to achieve that level was because he "exploited" some power from the ancient ghost king.
You know, the ancient ghost king was not only a ghost king, but also integrated with the Great Seal of the King of Hell to protect the true spirit.
Therefore, in the Six Desire Demon Realm, in addition to the power of its own formation and the power of the ghost king's desires, there should also be the power of the Great Seal of the King of Hell.
"To weaken the Ghost King's power and make yourself the leader, your plan is quite clear!" On the other side of the holographic image, they immediately guessed the purpose of Taoist Zuowang's doing this.
Or treat it as a split personality.
If both personalities want to become the dominant personality, or even the only personality, then naturally they have to find ways to weaken the influence of the other personality.
Putting it here with Taoist Zuowang is to consume the power of the ghost king's soul by setting up a large array.
However, judging from the little kid's appearance, Taoist Zuowang probably didn't quite get what he wanted.
"Yes, I am not shy about this. Isn't it all my own business to kill whom in the past and present life?" At this time, Taoist Zuowang didn't worry about who was who, but in the end he was quite confused. He said helplessly: "It's a pity that my cleverness was misled by my cleverness. After some calculation, I made a wedding dress for someone else!"
"Let me guess, the person you are talking about now must be that arrogant little brat who deserves to be beaten!" the holographic image said jokingly.
That little kid didn't behave like the current Taoist Zuowang, nor did he look like a ghost king. Naturally, he could only be blamed on the third personality.
Although, the little brat had summoned Yin soldiers and a palace of flesh and blood before.
However, the way he rolled his eyes clearly indicated that his body was controlled by the Ghost King personality.
"Haha, there is no way. I, the ghost king, and the little brat you call me can't meet each other, so naturally I can't educate him." Taoist Zuowang didn't mind at all. He was called For the little brat, he further explained: "It is precisely to prevent him from misbehaving that I set up a double seal to prevent him from opening his eyes and seeing that Xuantian Sect has disappeared."
"Although, you told us these things, as if what the little brat and the Ghost King did have nothing to do with you now. But, after all, you are a trinity. Don't worry about past and present lives. In the eyes of others, we You are who you are. So, you still have to suffer the punishment you deserve, or you can replace those two." The holographic image has nothing to ask, but he has no intention of letting Taoist Zuowang go.
"What fellow Taoist said is absolutely true, and I also think that... this little brat should be taught a lesson." Taoist Zuowang just said it to others, and he didn't seem to want to be punished at all.
"Okay, then I'm sorry!" The holographic image bowed its hands and then disappeared in the white room.
Looking back at the white room, after only Zaiwang Taoist was left, the lights suddenly began to change.
Various colors of light flashed at a special frequency at high speed, as if they were blinding people's eyes.
However, the Taoist Zuowang was a ray of soul and did not have the physical vision of a normal person, so it seemed unlikely that he would be blinded.
However, as time passed, Taoist Zaowang began to feel dizzy, and the flashing lights seemed to gradually turn into white light again.
Then, Taoist Zuowang felt that the surrounding light suddenly paused, and then quickly dimmed, revealing the scene covered by the light.
Looking at Taoist Zuowang sitting cross-legged in the white room, his spirit that originally looked like an immortal Taoist shrank and transformed into a little kid with a bun-shaped head.
"What kind of place is this!" the little kid yelled hysterically.
