Chapter 175 Your patience in enduring humiliation and burden is commendable

Western Region, Loulan City

The rammed earth is continuous, and there are ruins of marble walls everywhere. Through the fragments, you can see countless exquisite carvings and characters, and you can get a glimpse of the glory of the past. The statue of the Father is in pieces, and the huge head is half buried in the soil.

Half of the eyes were buried in the green grass and soil, and the vines climbed up along the collarbone, adding a touch of green to the marble sculpture.

This is the most prosperous ancient religious city in the Western Regions besides the Holy Religion. It was once the largest palace complex in the world, with 224 palaces and a total of 35,000 rooms. The oldest one can be traced back to a thousand years ago.

Before.

Religion and belief run through the history of mankind. Almost all early written records are related to belief, and China is no exception. For example, in the Shang Dynasty, superstitious divination was used to govern the country with ghosts and gods, and all major national events were predicted by turtles and zodiac signs.

The Holy Religion of the Western Regions was once like the divination during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, able to determine the replacement of kings and thrones and the rise and fall of a country. Every king of the thirty-six countries had to ask the Holy Religion for permission if he wanted to succeed.

And this is its peak and the beginning of its decline.

After the birth of modern disciplines, all religions in the world, including holy religions, have experienced a great decline. Some scholars call it a movement away from the gods, which puts science first and people first.

This is the inevitable development of the times. Science and technology are, to a certain extent, using mortal bodies to perform the deeds of gods.

But unlike the witches in China's past, the Holy Religion has survived and has considerable influence. Because of this, it has ushered in a second spring in the era of spiritual recovery. Countless reincarnations have taken a fancy to his faith, and for this reason

A big fight.

The extraordinary power from the spiritual world has pushed the Holy Religion to another peak. Now it has controlled the entire Western Region, and completely holds all regions in its hands through the sect. But everything has a price, and the so-called Holy Religion personnel

They have all been slaughtered, and this magnificent holy city has been smashed to pieces.

At the beginning, the Western Region was not favored by the Immortal Era, and there was no one swordsman who could suppress everything. Even if they only had the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, these great practitioners from all eras could play around with mortals.

A single hand of ecstasy can easily control the decision-making level of the entire government, and then control the entire region. This method was first used to deal with people in the mortal government, and it is said that they controlled an area of ​​50 million people with just their Qi refining skills.

No matter how powerful modern weapons are, they are ultimately about people. As long as you control a small number of people, you can control the army. This has also prompted China to develop ideological engineering technology and achieved good results.

Half of the grand hall in the center of Loulan City was missing, and there was a big hole in the ceiling. No one has repaired it yet. Sunlight shines in through the hole in the ceiling, and inside is a long oval table.

There were all kinds of people sitting in front of the long table. Some of them were wearing Taoist robes and were looking calm and happy, some of them were dressed in ruined clothes and smelled of medicine, and some were bathed in incense.

Their clothes are not like modern people at all, and there are some shadows of ancient Chinese costumes. The early people inevitably doubted them, involving fear of China and religious hatred of heretics, which inevitably caused some waves.

They were the first to declare to the outside world that they were wearing the oldest and holiest ancient Greek costumes of the Holy Religion. Now it is a symbol of status and status. At this point, reincarnated people no longer need to hide.

As for this dress, it is actually as mentioned on the Internet that it belongs to the style of China. To be precise, it is the clothing that was popular in the ancient times in the world of spiritual practice. Although it is not as fairy-like as the Immortal Era, the overall style is the same.

.

But so what?

In the past 10 years, the great practitioners have already taken control of the entire Western Region, and the entire government is their personal property. Now even without relying on ecstasy, their disciples can rule the entire region. And this process is very

Successfully, those high-ranking government officials, oligarchs, rich people, etc. almost came to join them at the expense of their heads and land.

Not everyone can resist the temptation of immortality. Practicing spiritual practice can allow them to live hundreds or thousands of years, allowing them to drink and play with women when they are 100 years old. They can avoid the aging and pain of mortal bodies and enjoy life to the fullest.

The atmosphere on the stone table, which was said to be hundreds of years old, was unusually depressing. The big shots who controlled various regions in the Western Region lowered their heads slightly and hid their faces in the shadows.

"The sea of ​​clouds Kunpeng enters the Western Region..."

"According to the information we know so far, these are all the top powerhouses in the Immortal Era, including living immortals, sword immortals, Qingxuan Taoists, world-transcending monks, and Taiyin fairies."

"Too much bullying!" Someone suddenly shouted angrily, "It's enough to occupy the spiritual land in China, but now they are stepping on our faces with such arrogance!"

Invisible pressure spread, and the remaining pieces of stained glass in the magnificent church buzzed, as if they might break at any time. The priest's knees outside the hall trembled, and he finally slowly collapsed to the ground.

"What do they want to do?! Do they want us to surrender?"

"Taoist Qingjian, Wu Xiangu, and the old monster Peach Blossom are dead. Those who are attacking are the immortals of Shenzhou Immortal Way. We must fight back. Those monks who only have Nascent Soul cannot stop them."

"Although we all have golden elixirs, our magical powers and spells do not depend on our cultivation level, and our understanding of Tao is also very different."

The crowd was excited. Everyone present had been the overlord of one party in their previous life. It was impossible to say that they had no spirit at all. There were only one person among millions who could become a Nascent Soul. How could they endure this grievance?

"Fellow Taoists, who will take the lead?"

I don't know who said this, and everyone fell silent immediately.

The answer is of course no. There are quite a few people present who can compete with the likes of Qingxuan Dushi. Not to say that they are absolutely sure of defeating the opponent, but they can at least compete with one or two.

But they have living immortals and sword immortals.

Needless to say, Sword Immortal has been the undisputed number one person in the world for the past 10 years. No one can match him in terms of fighting skills. Until now, no one can beat Sword Immortal. Some people have fought against Sword Immortal in the past years, and they have won many awards.

They leave an indelible shadow.

Although the Living Immortal and the others have never fought against each other, from what they have seen and heard in the past year, they are aware of each other's strength. At least they are as strong as the Sword Immortal, and may even be stronger than the Sword Immortal.

In the end, everyone focused on a man. He was two meters tall, as strong as an ox, and wore an armor composed of tens of thousands of bronze scales. He had a dragon head on his chest and tiger-shaped shoulders. The artistic conception of dragon and tiger meant that he was invincible.

.

Venerable Ba Xia is a person with strong physical skills and a Taoist spirit. In ancient times, he also briefly dominated for a period of time. Perhaps due to the limitations of physical training and some hidden injury, his existence was too short.

It took at least five hundred years for normal gods to reach their peak and dominate the world, and he died of old age in just over a hundred years. But in any case, Lord Ba Xia is one of the strongest men in the Western Region. If he had been reincarnated earlier,

Maybe I can get a piece of the pie in China.

Now, after several years of hard training, he has reached the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir and is considered one of the top ten strong men in the world today.

Facing everyone's gaze, Lord Ba Xia opened his tiger eyes slightly, and a fierce aura swept over him, and a dragon and a tiger appeared behind him.

His voice was low, like a war drum, and as soon as he opened his mouth, it shocked people's hearts.

"I live just to fight for a breath. I may not be able to defeat the living immortals and sword immortals, but it is not my good idea to let others look down on me. If he comes to this world, I will take action, regardless of my life."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't expect the Lord Ba Xia to be able to block the opponent, but at least they took action. Instead of just watching the opponent step on their face and being indifferent, or even saying farewell to the opponent.

Venerable Ba Xia may seem reckless, but in fact he is very thoughtful and can naturally tell what the people present are thinking.

Not only do you want face, but you also cherish your life.

"But I must know what is going on. Why did the living immortal come to the Western Region? According to those people from the immortal era, the other party is not a person who likes majesty."

This question makes most people look uncomfortable.

"Give me an answer."

Lord Ba Xia glanced at everyone present. No one dared to look at him. It was because of a guilty conscience and lack of confidence in his own strength.

The anger is gone.

This is a problem faced by many reincarnations. Perhaps they were the top experts in their era. Even if they cannot conquer an era, they are still the most powerful among their peers.

But after reincarnation, this deep-seated pride was smashed to pieces by people who were better than them. What was even more fatal was that they were no longer special. There were too many strong people at the same level as them.

On the surface, it has exceeded three figures, but secretly, I don’t know how many reincarnations there are. Why do they have any reason to be proud?

Mediocrity is what they are talking about.

But not everyone is like this, there are also people who are excited to face so many strong people.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

For ordinary people, it only takes a few blinks, but for those who are powerful practitioners, they can already think about many things clearly and can do many things.

Someone gave the answer.

"Some time ago, an ancestor asked me to find someone to give a message to the living immortal. He said that if everything goes well, he could get a piece of the pie from China."

The current headmaster of the Donghuang Sect, Taoist Huang Ji, is wearing a black and yellow treasure robe. His facial features are somewhat thin, his forehead is slightly high, his eyebrows are short, and his chin is pointed. He has a cunning appearance.

He is at the peak of Daoxing Yuanying and is in the late stage of Jindan cultivation.

At this moment, his face was slightly pale and his mind was in a state of confusion. Only then could he feel a great fear, as if he was being stared at by some kind of terrifying existence.

"Ancestor?" Lord Ba Xia was slightly curious, "What is your cultivation level? Your Donghuang Sect doesn't seem to have produced any peerless powerful ones."

Due to reincarnation, the traditional distinction between elder and younger is no longer valid, and ranking is basically based on cultivation level. If Taoist Huangji who is at the peak of the Daoxing Nascent Soul can call him an ancestor, that Daoxing is very likely to have a god.

Taoist Huang Ji replied: "There was an interruption in the inheritance of my sect, and Pindao didn't know the identity of that ancestor. But with his foundation-building cultivation, he was able to suppress me to the point where I couldn't move."

The foundation-building golden elixir? It is indeed a powerful god-transformer. Maybe he has the Taoist practice at the peak of god-transformation.

Lord Ba Xia did not show too much surprise, because the most indispensable thing in today's world is strong people. There are many people who are stronger than him, and there is no shortage of Donghuang Patriarch.

He continued to ask: "So what is the specific content of the message?"

"This..." Taoist Huang Ji hesitated for a moment and repeated the content, "...don't make mistakes, otherwise people's hearts will not be as good as snakes swallowing elephants."

"It's not just me, but several other people also went to leave messages. Those ancestors who were reincarnated recently wanted to discuss with the living immortals, hoping to obtain part of the spiritual veins of China. I didn't expect that the other party's reaction was so violent.

, the ancestors' Taoism should not be much weaker than the other party, aren't we afraid of creating great karma?"

It's also a matter of cause and effect. These old guys rely on their old age and have not seen clearly the world today. Maybe their moral conduct is not much worse than that of living immortals, but now that their strength has not been restored, what can they threaten others with?

Do you really think that a few breaths can scare the opponent away?

Venerable Ba Xia sighed silently, and then continued to ask: "Now that people are coming to your door, what do those seniors say?"

"...can't be contacted."

"I heard that today is someone's birthday. Do you think this is the right thing to say?"

Venerable Ba Xia looked at him with a faint look. Although he was not afraid of fighting, it did not mean that he acted like a fool and acted as a spearman for others, nor did he want to wipe the fool's butt.
To be continued...
