Chapter 99: The Fox Demon Asks the Immortal
Faced with the situation of this group of demons devouring immortals, Daojun Kongchen remained unmoved, only feeling a little sentimental.
"Heaven and earth are like a chess game, and all living beings are in danger."
"This is not only a calamity for Kongchen, but also a calamity for you, and even more so for the common people."
Taojun sighed, a sigh that seemed to express the catastrophe of the common people and the suffering of Li people.
For a moment, Lingluo seemed to see all living beings perish in the evil fire of heavenly calamity. Only Daojun Kongchen was sitting on the shore, overlooking the deep and boundless sea of evil.
When all living beings are in danger, who can survive?
Lingluo raised her head and looked at Kongchen Daojun, and only at this moment did she understand the immortal's mind and heart.
Perhaps the immortal would do this just because he couldn't bear to watch these sentient beings sink into the evil fire.
Mingming had already left the mortal world, but he came down from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm again to walk in this human world full of filthy karma.
The immortal put down the jade slip in his hand and looked at the woman in white.
"I already know what you're talking about! Is there anything else you have to do when you come here?"
When Lingluo heard this, she immediately knelt forward and said respectfully, "Lingluo came here to inquire about something. I want to find an answer from the immortal to resolve the doubts and confusion in my heart."
Daojun Kongchen said: "What are you asking about?"
The woman in white crouched her hands and raised her head, her eyes as clear as water, looking directly into the eyes of Dao Lord Kongchen.
"I have been in the world for hundreds of years, and I have seen all the prosperity and vicissitudes of the world, and I have a good understanding of the world's relationships."
"It's just that the longer I live, the more confused and overwhelmed I become."
"I have three questions for you!"
Speaking of this, the temperament of the woman in white, Ling Luo, became completely different, her voice became strong and full of passion, and her mind was agitated with every word she said.
"Ask!"
"Is there a true avenue in this world, and where is it?"
"Second question!"
"Is the morality upheld by us Taoist disciples correct? We did not hesitate to transform ourselves into monsters to defend the Tao. In the end, our whole family was devastated, and our body died and our Taoism disappeared."
"After paying such a heavy price, we can only get an ending in which the Tao disappears and the demons rise."
"Did we make a mistake?"
"If it's right? Why can't we see a way forward?"
"Three questions!"
"The demons and demons in this world are becoming more and more frequent, so where should all the people in the world go?"
The woman in white cupped her hands and kowtowed: "I only have these three questions, and I have nothing else to ask for."
The three questions are like the clear road, washing away the filth and filthiness of the human heart.
It is also like the sound of a bell under the mighty laws of heaven, spreading to all directions.
Daojun Kongchen was silent for a moment and closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, he suddenly asked: "What if there was a way in the world!"
"Do you think it's good to be a god?"
"Is it better to be an immortal?"
Lingluo was shocked immediately.
Kongchen Daojun started talking about gods and immortals, leaving her confused as to where to start.
So far, no one in the Taoist sect has become an immortal except for the Taoist Kongchen Taoist in front of him.
Even if it is a god, there is no way to follow it. The so-called gods from all directions are just a group of demons who have established themselves as gods.
Lingluo felt it faintly.
My questions and answers today may affect the general trend of the vast world and the path forward for all sentient beings in the world.
What determines all this is the Taoist Lord Kongchen in front of him, and the question he asked himself at this moment.
Lingluo felt like a mountain was pressing down on her shoulders, making it difficult to open her mouth.
was all he could say after a long while.
"I can't imagine it. I wonder what's the difference between this god and an immortal?"
Daojun Kongchen waved his sleeves and pointed to the heaven and earth with the sapphire slip in his hand.
"Both of them are the supreme door that points directly to the great road. They are the path to eternal life. If you cultivate them, you can live forever. Their magical power can reverse the laws of heaven and earth."
Waving his long sleeves, he swept across the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains outside the city, as if the heaven and earth were right before his eyes: "God came out by edict and was bound by the laws of heaven and earth to maintain the operation of the laws of heaven and earth."
After saying this, he raised his hand and pointed the note towards the sky: "Immortals can live forever, transcending heaven and earth. They are unrestrained and only want one person to be free."
"The supreme road leads to immortality."
Lingluo muttered silently. There was no emotion in her words, but her body was actually trembling.
These eight words are like a brand that is engraved in the bones of all living beings. Just hearing them makes people unable to restrain themselves, and they feel boundless greed and desire. Even Lingluo is no exception.
Lingluo took a deep breath and then said: "People's hearts are greedy. If Lingluo were to choose, of course it would be better to be an immortal!"
"Immortal life, free from heaven and earth, how happy and wanton it is."
"only……"
Daojun Kongchen showed a smile: "Just what? Feel free to speak freely, I will not blame you."
Lingluo said bluntly: "Compared to all living beings in the world, I'm afraid God is better."
"Although immortals are detached from things, they only want one person to be free."
“Although God is bound by heaven and earth, he lives and works with all living things in heaven and earth.”
Kongchenzi had a vague understanding.
It is enough for this world to have him as an immortal, and there is no need for more existences that transcend the laws of heaven and earth to appear.
What all sentient beings need is restrained gods, not free-spirited immortals who are detached from the world.
He already understood something in his heart, but he hadn't fully thought about it yet.
Perhaps the answer can only be truly found when this journey of mortal world comes to an end.
Kong Chenzi turned over his hand, and the sapphire slip in his palm had turned into a pair of white jade dust.
Silk is like snow, jade is like fat.
This white jade whisk was offered as an offering by the people of Anle County after the great disaster in Lingzhou in order to thank him for saving Lingzhou. It also symbolizes the gratitude of the people of Lingzhou and the merits of Lord Kongchen.
After Kong Chenzi was refined by the divine fire, he became what he is now. Although it is just a mortal object, it is extraordinary to him and he always carries it with him.
At this moment, Kong Chenzi handed it over, but gave it to the woman in white kneeling in front of him, and asked the immortal three questions.
Lingluo stepped forward to take it, but she was a little confused, so she looked at the ups and downs, then raised her head and looked at Daojun Kongchen: "Master Taoist, what is this?"
Kong Chenzi took back his hand: "I have traveled thousands of miles away from the world of mortals! I will eventually return!"
"This floating dust is called merit whisk. Although it has no magical power, it can record merits and sins."
"You can do ninety-nine good deeds with this whisk, and each of them can be known to the world, so that the local people will be grateful to you and know the name of this whisk's merits."
"I will tell you an upright and upright path."
When the immortal said this, his words changed.
"perhaps!"
"That is the method you want to save the world, and the answer that all Taoist disciples seek."
Kong Chenzi was trying out his previous idea: when an item has great merit and has enough legendary foundation and will power to gather, can it be transformed into a protector god?
At this moment, Lingluo's hand holding the white jade whisk suddenly became extremely strong, and she tightly held the jade handle.
Then he looked up at the immortal in disbelief: "Is what Mr. Dao said true?"
"A poor man never lies."
Lingluo couldn't help herself, and her heart was filled with joy and sorrow at the same time.
In an instant, tears fell down her face, dripping down her chin and soaking her white skirt.
"Lingluo thanked Mr. Dao!"
"I would also like to thank Tao Lord on behalf of the Taoist disciples and all the people in the world."
At this time, Daojun Kongchen, who was sitting cross-legged in the pavilion, closed his eyes and didn't want to say anything more.
"Go!"
"Go!"
Strong winds and clouds rolled up, and Lingluo felt the world spin for a while. When she stood still, she was already on the main road in the city.
The avenue leads in all directions, and crowds of people come and go, passing by.
Lingluo grabbed the fly whisk in her palm and stood in a daze among the crowd. She didn't come back to her senses until she saw the fly whisk in her hand.
"Ninety-nine good deeds!"
"Ninety-nine meritorious deeds!"
After reciting it seven or eight times, my face turned into a smile.
With a flick of the whisk, Lingluo strode forward without hesitation and walked along the avenue towards the distance.
