Chapter 329: The Resurrection of the First Qilin, the Life of the Immortals and Gods

"Heaven is above, I am the original demon. Today I have opened up the demon world, independent of the prehistoric world, and evolved the demon to test the cultivators' desire to seek the Tao."

"If you pass the demon calamity, your Tao heart will be clear. The two feed on each other. I hope Heaven will judge."

As the voice of the original demon resounded through the prehistoric land, purple clouds gathered between heaven and earth. Many cultivators were under these purple clouds, feeling uneasy, as if a heavenly calamity was coming.

Then, a golden light broke through the purple clouds and shone on the prehistoric creatures, making them feel a little more stable.

And the purple clouds also shone brightly under the golden light, gradually changing color, turning into golden clouds of merit, heading straight to the heaven and the outside of the chaos.

And in the eyes of all living beings, a world slowly unfolded like a scroll, with scenes of dancing goddesses, white apes offering fruits, and gods singing.

As most of the golden cloud of merit fell into it, the characters in these scrolls became vivid, as if they were real people, making people yearn for it.

The remaining part of the golden cloud of merit was thrown into the heaven, and turned into several streams of light, most of which did not enter the bodies of Luohou and Jidu.

The remaining small part belonged to Qi, Di Jun and others. All living beings witnessed this scene, and their hopes for the heaven were also disappointed, as it was actually involved in it!

The gods all felt the opening of the demon world. Looking at the world in front of them near the prehistoric world, the gods could not help but be moved.

But thinking of the richness of the prehistoric land, they could only put this matter behind them, but they also kept a line in their hearts as one of the retreats for their race and themselves.

As for the prehistoric beings, although they knew that the opening of the demon world was not friendly to them, they did not notice anything different at the moment and gradually forgot about it.

It was not until the subsequent reports that some people failed to break through and died, or their entire bodies were like dry bones, their foundations were damaged and they could not practice, or they were crazy and possessed by demons, that they understood the horror of the demons.

However, their panic did not affect the parties who could solve the problem, because the gods were actually happy to see the appearance of the demons.

At this time, Qi was still sleeping, and he seemed to have not heard of the opening of the demon world, and he was immersed in his dreams.

But just when everyone was panicking and the atmosphere of practice was depressed, hundreds of pictures suddenly came out from the heavens, which recorded the methods of practice, making the entire prehistoric world active again.

Among them, several pictures are the most eye-catching, one is the Golden Crow Sun Picture representing the Emperor of Heaven and the Sun, and the Ancestral Dragon Soaring in the Clouds Picture representing the scales.

The Phoenix Soaring Picture representing birds, the Qilin Howling Mountain Picture representing beasts, the Waves and Still Water Picture representing the water situation in the world, and the Godly Sky Emperor Picture representing the heaven.

In addition, there are some other pictures such as the Moon Rabbit Picture, the Kunpeng Spreading Wings Picture, and various star pictures, landscape pictures, etc. There are many kinds of pictures, but they suddenly spread in the prehistoric world, and they also have a fixed name-visualization picture.

And their sources all point to the heaven, and eventually fell into the hands of major races, so that they took them as a model and gradually created visual pictures for various races.

Such as the Tiger Roaring in the Forest Picture, the Sky Snake Picture, the Wild Bull Shaking the Mountain Picture, etc., until the visualization method was widely circulated in the prehistoric world, becoming the mainstream of cultivation for a while, and even gradually replacing the traditional external alchemy method.

In the heaven, Nuwa felt the continuous gathering of luck, and began to look forward to the merits that were about to fall.

It’s a pity that the way of heaven did not indicate it, as if it had to wait until everything was settled before rewarding it.

During this period, Nuwa successfully certified the marriage of Di Jun and Xihe and Changxi, but it was a pity that Qi was still asleep and did not participate in such a grand event.

Qi felt that he was walking in the darkness, and there was no light around him, but he felt so comfortable and relaxed, as if the darkness in front of him was himself.

Until a white light came on in the distance, Qi slowly woke up from his sleep. The sky in the heaven was the same as before, with blue clouds.

After counting with his fingers, Qi realized that he had been sleeping for a Yuanhui. Now that he was awake, he felt refreshed. With a little movement, his muscles and bones made a crisp sound.

"Since I'm awake, I should do my business!"

Qi muttered to himself, but his eyes had fallen into the starry sky. Countless stars were still moving in the same wonderful way as before. Qi watched for a long time, but still couldn't solve it.

Finally, Qi was too lazy to watch any longer, and got up and went to the Lingxiao Palace. The formation in the starry sky could not be given up, so he naturally had to seek a simpler answer.

Qi has never forgotten what Luohou said at the beginning. After all, since Dou Mu Yuanjun set up this formation, there must be a lead.

And since he was able to leave the Chaos Bell to Taiyi, the River Map and Luoshu in Dijun's hand are naturally extraordinary, and not as simple as they thought in the past.

Although Luohou did not say it explicitly, most people guessed that the personal spiritual treasure of Dou Mu Yuanjun at the beginning was obviously this thing.

After all, how could a person who is good at deducing formations give up treasures like the River Map and Luoshu? Qi went there this time to borrow this thing.

And just as Qi was walking, the sound of Tao suddenly sounded in the sky, and countless sky flowers scattered, which was beautiful even in the heavens.

Qi saw this scene and felt something in his heart, and knew that Nuwa had completed the deduction of the visualization method and spread it widely in the prehistoric world.

Rolling golden clouds gathered together, and the sky was filled with golden clouds of merit. Even Qi was shocked, and the gods were even more so. They all sighed and regretted not taking part in it.

The golden cloud of merit in the sky, after the sound of Tao gradually dissipated, gradually divided into six parts, two of which were larger, accounting for about 60%, and the remaining four were equally divided.

The two larger parts drove towards the heavens and fell on Qi and Nuwa respectively, making the golden wheel of merit behind Qi more perfect and swollen.

Of the remaining four parts, three fell into the East China Sea Eye, the Qilin Cave in Kunlun Mountain, and the Immortal Volcano in the Southern Continent.

The last part turned into golden rain all over the sky, which was distributed to those who created and promoted the visualization method in the prehistoric world, and even Di Jun Kunpeng and others also had a share.

In Kunlun Mountain, the Three Pure Ones all looked at the Qilin Cliff in front of them, their eyes full of solemnity, and the huge Qilin head kept shaking, and it was quiet after a long time.

A series of footsteps came from the mouth of the Qilin head, and the Three Pure Ones were all as if they were facing a great enemy, but they saw a small golden Qilin walking out of it, almost made of merit.

The little Qilin was only four feet tall, but the domineering and arrogant look in his eyes made the Three Pure Ones almost alert at the same time, and the two sides gradually confronted each other.

After a long time, the little Qilin finally spoke:

"I turned into rocks to suppress the prehistoric earth veins, which is also a great achievement for the prehistoric earth. You ignored the creatures of the prehistoric earth and killed people privately. Is it also the right way?"

"According to my bloodline, there are few Qilin in Kunlun Mountain, but there are some in your Taoist temples in East Kunlun. Why is this so?"

"At the beginning, I wanted to preach and spread the name of Kunlun. I hope that you three pure ones will be neighbors in Kunlun Mountain. With the power of my clan at that time, I personally sent a letter to invite you to discuss Taoism together."

"This is a win-win situation, and it can also correct your reputation. Even if Even if you are unwilling, I have a higher level of cultivation, so I should at least reply with one letter. "

"You have no etiquette and acted as if you didn't hear anything. You are so frivolous. I only punished you slightly and didn't hurt you at all. I didn't pursue you afterwards."

"But when my clan was in trouble, you treated me like this. You killed me, which was enough to make up for the shame. But you affected your descendants and treated them as slaves. You are so narrow-minded. Do you have any innate sacredness?"

The momentum of the little Qilin was getting bigger and bigger, vaguely like the appearance of the catastrophe in the past, and it was only a hair's breadth away from the enlightenment.

The auras of the Three Pure Ones blended together and merged into one, directly colliding with the little Qilin. Thunder suddenly sounded on the whole Kunlun Mountain, attracting countless eyes.

Facing the little Qilin's questioning, Yuanshi spoke first:

"You said it so nicely, but what you said was nothing but a frame-up. At that time, my three brothers were only Luo Tianzun God, far inferior to you."

"If you really saw the invitation, how dare you not come? Although we are noble, we are not unwise people, and we have been walking in the prehistoric world for a long time. Who would say that we don't know etiquette?"

"Back then, my three brothers were in the Taoist temple and practiced in silence, not causing trouble in the prehistoric world. You suddenly came here, took our good name, and spread the power of your Qilin clan."

"But when you first arrived, you took advantage of our lack of cultivation. Do you have any room for explanation? Because of what happened back then, my three brothers How can I explain this loss of face?"

"Isn't it right to cut off your head when you encounter a disaster for no reason? Although you didn't say anything against me, you have provoked your Qilin clan. How can we live in Kunlun Mountain?"

"The descendants of your subordinates rely on your reputation and have offended us. Otherwise, how could I do something to add insult to injury?"

"The evil cause in the past has led to the evil result today. You were strong at that time, but today is different!"

The two of them confronted each other. Although they understood the strangeness, the grievances suffered by Sanqing were a fact, and the revenge suffered by the Qilin clan could not be changed, so there was no concession between the two.

The momentum of both sides became more and more wild, and countless thunders spread on Kunlun Mountain. But just when they were about to take action, they saw auspicious clouds, thousands of auspicious air, and strange fragrance. They saw a Taoist holding a bamboo stick.

He chanted a verse:

"Lying high on the nine-layer cloud, I understand the truth of the Tao. Beyond the universe, I shall be the master of the sect. Pangu gave birth to Taiji, and the two yin and yang and four images follow. The leader of the Xuanmen, one qi transforms into Hongjun."

The person who came was Hongjun, and the momentum in the field also paused. The Three Pure Ones and the little Qilin all bowed and said:

"Greetings to the great god Hongjun (teacher)."

Hongjun looked at the four people and felt a headache. This matter was caused by him, but he never thought that it would be like this today.

As early as when the visualization method was widely spread in the prehistoric times, Hongjun felt quite bad in his heart, but compared with the external alchemy method, the visualization method did have some progress, and he naturally would not stop its spread.

But he never thought that such merits would be left, giving the original Qilin, who was not completely dead, a glimmer of life.

After all, when the original Qilin wanted to make up for his own mistakes, he chose to turn into rocks and guard the earth veins for the prehistoric world. The prehistoric earth veins are endless. From the perspective of the Heavenly Dao, he will not be considered dead until he has repaid the cause and effect of heaven and earth.

If Yuanshi had not taken action, the original Qilin would probably not be able to escape in the future. At least, with the merits of the visualization method, it would never be possible to achieve the perfection he sought and escape from the rocks.

But Yuanshi took action and cut off the head of the original Qilin. It seemed that he had killed him and eliminated the possibility of his escape, but in fact, it created his current situation.

After the merits fell, the body of the original Qilin had already been split into two, and his body had completely become part of the prehistoric earth veins. Only the head still had a glimmer of life.

The cause and effect that needs to be repaid and the merits that need to be consumed in unlocking the entire body and only unlocking a head are very different.

It can be said that now that the first Qilin is able to escape from the predicament, he has to thank Yuanshi a lot. Otherwise, if he had not taken action, it is likely that the first Qilin would still have a long way to go before he could be unsealed.

Before Shi Qilin spoke, Yuanshi asked first:

"I wonder why you came this time? Is there something you need to tell me?"

Hongjun did not answer Yuanshi's question, but looked at the four people and said:

"When Shi Qilin Daoyou did send an invitation, but you did not receive it. Someone else had planned it."

"Shi Qilin Daoyou, you were indeed killed by Yuanshi, and your clansmen were enslaved by him, but it was because of this that you were able to escape today, and the Qilin clan was able to preserve a trace of blood and flow in the prehistoric world."

"In this The karma has long been entangled. If it continues, both sides will lose something and no good results will be achieved. "

"Why not let me be a witness here, and both sides will make peace. At this point, the karma is cleared, and Fellow Daoist Shi Qilin will no longer pursue it. How about taking the tribe away?"

"The Three Pure Ones should not hold on to it. Fellow Daoist Shi Qilin has also been calculated by others in this matter."

"You have accepted the Qilin tribe for many years, and its tribesmen have been reduced to mounts for a long time. You have also cut off Fellow Daoist Shi Qilin's physical body. The evil in your heart has long been released. Why not let it go? How about it?"

The four people in the field were silent , Daode Taoist and Lingbao Taoist both focused their eyes on Yuanshi Taoist. After a long time, Yuanshi said:

"The matter is entirely up to the teacher, and the disciple has no objection."

Shi Qilin stared at Hongjun closely, with an inexplicable meaning in his eyes, but finally compromised:

"Since fellow Daoist Hongjun has spoken, I will naturally not continue to entangle, but from today on, there will be no cause and effect between the Qilin clan and the prehistoric world."

Hongjun nodded without hesitation to show his agreement, and then said:

"Daoyou gave up his physical body, Qilin The clan has also suffered a great disaster, so it can naturally make up for the previous mistakes. I would like to congratulate you, and now you are finally free. "

Shi Qilin did not say much about this, but turned to Yuanshi and said:

"Since the dispute between us has been resolved, I will naturally not care too much. Gather my clansmen and I will take them all away."

Yuanshi just snorted coldly, and then said:

"As you wish."

Shi Qilin immediately turned around and left without stopping. With a long roar, countless streams of light flew out of Kunlun Mountain and followed Shi Qilin away.

In the following period of time, Shi Qilin led his clansmen to run around in the prehistoric world, gathering one Qilin after another, and went to chaos again.

The Heavenly Court knew about this matter and let it go. Since Hongjun Daozu had decided that there was no cause and effect between him and the prehistoric world, Qi and others would naturally not stop him and become evil people for nothing.

However, before leaving, Shi Qilin also went to the Heavenly Palace. He wanted to face the reality and see what happened to the people he had saved and discussed with him.

After witnessing the strength of the Heavenly Palace, Shi Qilin knew that he had no chance, so he did not stay for too long, indicating that he had no intention of returning and respected the Heavenly Palace as the superior.

He also told the Qilin clan that they would open up a world in the chaos as a place for subsequent recuperation, and would also open the door to the Heavenly Palace, and welcome Qi and others to visit at any time.

Qi and Dijun Fuxi naturally expressed their support. After all, if people from the three tribes like this could not be used by the Heavenly Palace, they would all wish them to stay away from the prehistoric world.

As for whether Hongjun regretted accepting Shi Qilin's request, only he knew.

Yiyanqing went to the cause and effect owed by the Qilin clan, and the karma in it still needed him to bear. He had stopped the invitation to the Three Pure Ones at the beginning, and now he had to bear the consequences.

Therefore, the law of cause and effect is really extraordinary and wonderful. Even saints cannot escape it sometimes.

As for killing the first Qilin to eliminate the cause and effect, Hongjun has never considered it. If the first Qilin dies, the karma of the Qilin clan will not disappear, and he will also have to bear it.

In this case, why should Hongjun kill in vain? It is better to let the Qilin clan go, which is quite comfortable.

And the freedom of the Qilin clan undoubtedly gave the Phoenix clan and the Dragon clan a glimmer of hope. Zulong and Yuanhuang also saw some light in their suffering.

The original catastrophe was caused by the three clans. Now that the Qilin clan has escaped, the karma they bear must be the same as the Qilin.

The world is fair, and all things are treated equally. Perhaps when the new round of catastrophe is over, the three clans can really escape the cage.

On the prehistoric land, Kunpeng walked on the edge of an unnamed river. The surrounding land was relatively flat, and many ordinary tribes were built by the water.

Kunpeng watched them use animal heads for sacrifice, worship the river and mountain that nurtured them, and there was a hint of witchcraft in their movements, and he could not help but be amazed.

Looking at the tribal leader who was offering sacrifices in front of him, Kunpeng walked forward and asked:

"Old man, you offer sacrifices to the heaven, earth, mountains and waters, and your words and movements are quite strange. You have never used any magic power. Is it really useful to offer three animals for sacrifice?"

The leader of the tribe was an old man. Facing Kunpeng's question, he was also ignorant, but after hesitating, he still explained:

"I don't know, but my ancestors have been doing this for generations. Whether it is useful or not, I am just a mortal, how can I explain this truth."

"It's just that my ancestors have been passed down like this, so I can't change it. Besides, it's just three animal heads. The mountain god can't eat them. Won't they fall into the old man's mouth in the end?"

"Anyway, there is no loss, and it can also boost the morale of the tribe. It's not bad to treat it as an activity, at least it can make everyone happy."

"As for whether it is useful, who knows, the old man can't see it anyway. After all, what if it is useful? It is somewhat comforting."

Kunpeng was immediately shocked. Even the person who presided over the sacrifice did not know where its function and efficacy came from.

This phenomenon made Kunpeng extremely puzzled. Since he had doubts in his heart, Kunpeng naturally would not hide it from a mortal and asked directly:

"But you are worshiping the God of mountains and rivers. If you are so disrespectful, aren't you afraid of punishment from the Mountain God?"

The old man asked rather puzzledly:

"What does this have to do with you? Mountains are mountains and water is water. Our ancestors have lived here for generations. Whether there is a god or not, is it possible that our ancestors have not passed it down?"

"And there are so many immortals now. If there are really gods in this mountain, they are probably some boring immortals who came out to deceive the old man."

"But I think they won't be like this. After all, those immortals are all aloof. How could they have the leisure to come to this mountain col to amuse us ordinary people."

Kunpeng was completely speechless and felt that this matter was inappropriate, but his father-in-law's words made some sense. After all, whether the mountain god was around or not, it didn't seem to affect their lives.

Kunpeng didn't speak, but the father-in-law seemed to rarely see outsiders and couldn't stop talking. He invited Kunpeng:

"From what I see, you look like you're probably a rich man from a big town. It's a long way to our tribe. After walking for so long, you must be hungry."

"I guess you haven't eaten our rough food in the mountains. If you don't mind it, you can have a light meal at the old man's house before leaving."

Kunpeng hesitated for a while and then agreed. Yu Qiang's words were still in his ears. He was too far away from the primitive world in the past, and now was the time to blend in among people.

Kunpeng followed his father-in-law to a cave. There were several tree stumps left by felled trees at the entrance of the cave. It seemed that the father-in-law and his family rested here on weekdays.

It was said that he was going to treat guests to a meal, but Kunpeng only saw the meal at sunset. It consisted of some wild vegetables and the meat of an unknown animal, mixed with water and boiled with salt.

The people of this tribe all have leopard tails and leopard bodies. Only the hands, feet and heads are human-shaped, but they have sharp teeth and claws. It is impossible to tear these large pieces of flesh with any strength.

Seeing this, Kunpeng hesitated a little, then placed the meat the old man gave him on the leaves of the tree, took out a short knife and slowly chopped it into pieces.

After all the old man's clan members had finished eating, Kunpeng was ready to eat. The taste was surprisingly good, the meat was salty and chewy.

After the old man finished eating, he and his family quietly looked at Kunpeng, watching him chew carefully and without any intention of urging him.

Kunpeng was extremely embarrassed by this sight and couldn't help but ask:

"Why are you looking at me like this? But did I eat too much?"

The old man just smiled and said:

"It's okay, I just think you chew it carefully and slowly. I haven't seen it eaten this way. It looks really good. Just eat it slowly."

"If it's not enough, just tell the old man that although our tribe is not rich, fortunately there is no shortage of food. There are a lot of wild animals in the mountains and a lot of fish in the river. They are beautiful."

"I think even if you are a god in the sky, your life is just like this. At most, you can dress better than us and live in a prettier house."

"You don't have to go out to hunt every day. You can live in a warm fire house in the winter and chew meat and bones. It's comfortable just thinking about it."

Kunpeng was silent about this, but had no intention of explaining it to him. Perhaps the life of an immortal was not as interesting as he said.

And if he knew about it, how could they, who understood the gap, allow this tribe to continue to feel so comfortable?
