Chapter 257 The dispute over the concept of the holy way
There were originally many disciples of Qishi Mansion in this small wine shop. As a small wine shop that could be opened inside Qishi Mansion, it was impossible for someone without any background to exist.
So even if there was only an old man with sparse and gray hair in this small wine shop, no Qishi Mansion disciple would dare to be so presumptuous.
You must know that many of the great sects in Zhongzhou are not qualified to open industries within Qishi Mansion, so the disciples of Qishi Mansion all know that this old man either has a difficult background or his own strength is not simple.
But no matter what, they didn't expect that the Lord of God would walk straight towards here. Is there anything worthy of the Lord of God's attention in this small wine shop?
At this moment, Zhou Qing spoke.
"Senior, as the master of the palace several generations ago, an existence of the ancient saint level, actually runs a small business in such a small wine shop, and spends time with the disciples of Qishi Mansion every day. It is really unexpected."
Zhou Qing walked into the small wine shop, looked at the old man with a smile, and without being polite, sat directly at the table that the old man had arranged.
"A small wine shop is not simple. Even though my small building only has 20 or 30 people, it will often become an information exchange center for any major events in Beidou. In addition, I can watch young people playing and listening to their discussions. The heroes of the world also make my heart younger and younger." The old palace master poured two glasses of wine and then sat down.
At this time, all the Qishi Mansion disciples in the small wine shop had withdrawn, leaving the place to Zhou Qing and their old master.
Moreover, after this conversation, the old palace master also knew that he could no longer hide his identity.
Thinking of this, the old palace master couldn't help but glance at Zhou Qing. He originally wanted to get along with the disciples of Qishi Palace as an ordinary person, and did not intend to be exposed now. However, he could not control Zhou Qing's behavior. Now I can only hold my nose and recognize it.
"Senior, hiding something is not necessarily a good thing. Perhaps showing strength appropriately is the best criterion for survival." Zhou Qing shook his head, indicating something.
There is a very magical thing about the powerful people from the ancient times, that is, they especially like to hide and hide their strong points. This is true for both saints and great sects.
In fact, he can also understand this idea, which is to make others unclear about his own background, so that others will not dare to attack easily.
This was the case when the Ancient Sun Religion attacked the Taiyin Religion. Because it was not clear what the Taiyin Religion's background was, the senior officials argued endlessly and had inconsistent opinions, and were unable to make a decision to go to war.
However, the strong people in ancient times did not do things like the human race. It was an era of jungle and strong food. If there is an ancestor king, there will be an ancestor king, and it will be widely publicized. Ethnic groups without ancestor kings are often precarious and may perish at any time. .
But now that the Taikoo clan has begun to appear one after another, these strong men in Beidou still follow this deep-rooted rule to fight against the Taikoo clan, which will definitely make a big mistake.
However, these are the rules that these strong men have followed for their whole lives. They are the rules that the great sects have followed since their establishment. In the past history, this way of doing things has often helped them live longer and helped the great sects to pass on longer. , so people naturally think that this kind of rule must be very easy to use.
People are shackled in such a mindset, and it is basically impossible to realize the fact that times have changed without giving them a painful experience.
No one knows why the saints who had been hidden in the original time for more than ten years suddenly united and unified their opinions to complete a planned and organized strategic intimidation.
But in those ten years, the Holy Prince was chased in a panic. Several small bandits died, and several big bandits died. Even Ji Haoyue dared to rescue him, but he had to be bloody before he could barely return to Ji's family. Taikoo The clansmen don't care about the Ji family's reputation at all.
After all, in the ancient times, the struggle for hegemony among all races was based on the law of the jungle. Even if the Ji family is an imperial clan and only has the Ji Dao imperial soldiers, the result is that the strongest person in the clan is just a powerful person? The deterrent effect is greatly weakened.
When Zhou Qing came back this time, he never thought of hiding his saintly cultivation, because he clearly understood that times have changed!
What the next human race needs is not to hide, but to show their power. For the Ancient Race, showing their power is far more intimidating than being covert and making people unable to guess what the truth is.
"It seems, young man, you have some different ideas?" The old palace master seemed to be somewhat interested in Zhou Qing's words and asked Zhou Qing in return.
"It can be seen that the senior cares about these disciples of Qishi Mansion. After all, these are the outstanding ones who stand out from the five realms. They are either those with special physiques, or their own cultivation talents are truly extraordinary. Although there are also some amazing ones. The most talented people choose not to join the Qishi Mansion, but they are only a minority. The disciples of the Qishi Mansion include almost all the talented people in Beidou."
"Senior, have you ever thought about it, if a saint from the human race is not revealed to the outside world, what will happen to these disciples after the ancient tribe is born and they see a human race with no top-level combat power? Even if one of them dies, it will be a mistake. A huge loss to the potential of the human race, right?" Zhou Qing pointed at the disciples of Qishi Mansion outside and said.
"But this may be able to stimulate their potential more. Besides, they are not without power behind them. Although the times will be cruel to them, it will also allow them to grow up quickly." The old palace master said lightly.
"A saint lives in seclusion, sits and watches the changes in the world, and treats the people as stupid dogs. Is it necessarily right?" Zhou Qing asked rhetorically.
"You continue." The old palace master raised his glass and drank, and then poured another glass to himself, as if he was ready to talk freely with Zhou Qing.
Naturally, Zhou Qing never thought that this topic would end in a while. In the final analysis, this is already a battle between Dao, Dao and Nian, and even more, a battle between Holy Dao.
He went on to say: "Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as rudderless dogs. The saints are unkind and regard the common people as rudderless dogs."
"But the premise for a saint to be unkind is that the people are in a natural state of birth and death, like a flower blooming and falling. There are times of prosperity and times of decline. Only then will the saint be unkind."
"But if the people are not in a natural state of life and death, but are subject to disasters imposed by external forces, then the saint can point his sword to the sky and create a bloody path forward for the human race!"
"Boom!"
Suddenly there was a roar of thunder in the sky, leaving many disciples of Qishi Mansion confused.
They looked curiously at the small wine shop that had been submerged in the chaos, wondering what was going on inside.
One is the first genius to become a saint in the world, the strongest voice representing the new generation, and the other is the old master of the palace who became a saint thousands of years ago. What secrets of heaven and earth will they talk about? This made these Qishi Mansion disciples feel like cats were tickling their hearts, eager to hear clearly.
In the small wine shop, the old palace master's arm pouring wine suddenly stopped. It was not until the wine was full and the wine gurgled out that the old palace master came back to his senses and put away the wine jar as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"A hundred thousand years ago, the young and energetic Emperor of the Void had exactly the same idea as you." The old palace master said slowly.
After saying this, there was a brief silence in the tavern.
In the outside world, the Black Emperor relied on a very mysterious ear-shaped secret weapon to break through the chaos barrier set by Zhou Qing. When it put on this ear-shaped secret weapon, it could hear the sounds in the small wine shop clearly. Clearly.
"Black Emperor, Black Emperor, tell me, what are they talking about inside?" Zixia, the innate Taoist fetus, urged from the side with a very curious expression.
But she pushed Heihuang a few times, but Heihuang didn't respond at all, which made her frown. Just when she was about to use more force, Heihuang suddenly said: "Zixia, what kind of saint is in your heart?"
Zixia was stunned for a moment, and then responded without thinking: "Saint? Invincible, traveling through the stars, opening up the world, possessing unrivaled power, isn't this a saint?"
But to her expectation, the Black Emperor did not acknowledge this. Instead, he shook his big head and murmured in a daze with his big copper bell eyes.
"You are only talking about a saint in terms of strength. In fact, what is a true saint? Even Emperor Wushi doesn't know this question. Even if his cultivation is all over the world and invincible, but in terms of spirituality, He doesn't know how to describe the saint."
Zixia listened in a daze and didn't quite understand what the Black Emperor was talking about, but she still wrote down these words.
She already knew that the Black Emperor was a dog that Emperor Wushi once adopted and knew many secrets. Therefore, she would secretly write down any mention of Emperor Wushi to try to figure out what the mystery was.
But it was really hard for her to understand what the Black Emperor said this time. As long as he kills the Tao and then reaches a higher realm, wouldn't he become a saint? This is something worth thinking about.
In the small wine shop, after a short silence, the old palace master spoke again: "Have you realized the power of humanity?"
Zhou Qing sat on the spot without moving, revealing the power of the Emperor of Humanity hidden deep in his body, wrapping around him.
In just an instant, he seemed to have become the center of heaven and earth, with all the glory gathered in one body, admired by all people, and possessing the majesty of supreme dignity.
The old palace master sighed with emotion: "Sure enough, your holy way contains the power of humanity, but it is still the highest level of power. Before, I have only seen this kind of power in Xiang Yufei, so even if We have to pay a huge price for this, and we have forcibly saved him into this life, but the power in you is stronger than that of Xiang Yufei. This shows that you have truly understood the essence of humanity. No wonder your saint The Tao will be such a holy way.”
After confirming the level of Zhou Qing's understanding of humanity, the old palace master also had some understanding of Zhou Qing's philosophy. The words of the saint pointing his sword to the sky and going on a killing spree shocked him for a while, but now he feels that it is natural.
Because if Zhou Qing did not have that kind of awareness, it would be impossible to comprehend the power of humanity, let alone the power of the Emperor of Humanity.
The two Human Emperors at that time were both outstanding in this way. Opening up the way forward for the human race was not about treating guests to a meal, and it was impossible to be gentle and courteous. It was a completely violent action, and it was the two Human Emperors who took the lead in killing it. .
"In this case, let me ask you again, how do you plan to show your power appropriately?" the old palace master asked with great interest.
In his opinion, Zhou Qingquan at this moment is not a junior at all, but a true saint. Therefore, he is really curious about what the strongest voice of this new generation thinks.
"In fact, with the passage of millions of years, not all the ancient tribes are unaware of the changes of the times. A considerable number of the ancient tribes will be touched by the development of the human race, and there are also a considerable number of ancient tribes who retain their evil intentions. But there are also some scruples, and there are mainly ten ethnic groups that are really unscrupulous." Zhou Qing said seriously.
Regarding the Taikoo clan, the Qishi Mansion, the future of Tianjiao, and the future of the human race, Zhou Qing and the old mansion master exchanged their opinions one by one, and each gained a lot.
A day and a night passed like this, and most of the disciples left the small wine shop. Only less than ten people were still waiting. Among them, Heihuang and Zixia were listening with relish on a mountain peak not far from the small wine shop.
"This guy is really awesome. He has ideas and is very action-oriented. I didn't expect his ideas to be so shocking. But I'm still not optimistic about it. After all, even Emperor Wushi couldn't do it back then. Never in all eternity has he done it." Anyone can do it, but this is simply not possible for humans." The Black Emperor sighed with emotion.
"Is this the Divine Lord? If he can't be called a saint, then no one in the world can be called a saint." Zixia's red lips parted slightly, feeling very shocked.
For so many years, she had only heard that the power of the God Lord was invincible, but compared with the ideas she heard at this moment, she suddenly felt that that kind of invincible power was too low-level compared to the idea of the God Lord, and she felt a little overwhelmed. It feels like people are being crushed into ants in terms of character.
At this time, the communication between Zhou Qing and the old master of the palace has come to an end. Although they only talked for a day and a night, how fast did they have an idea? I have exchanged so many things in one day.
"Is the Master interested in becoming a teacher in our Qishi Mansion?" Before leaving, the old Mansion Master asked Zhou Qing with a smile.
"I don't have that time." Zhou Qing shook his head and refused.
"You don't need to preach often, just come once in a while. Many disciples in Qishi Mansion are very curious about you and are very eager to hear your teachings." The old mansion master smiled.
The main reason why I am curious is to know why Zhou Qing's practice can be so high and his progress can be so fast, which many people cannot understand.
It can be said that "How did Zhou Qing practice?" has now become a super hot topic among this group of young people.
Seeing the old master's invitation again, Zhou Qing stopped, thought for a moment, and replied: "If it's an occasional visit, that's fine."
Anyway, there is no need to come in the real body. Just like this time, just send a Taoist body to talk. If even the Taoist body is very busy, he can also come from outside the sky. This is not difficult for him. .
The chaos surrounding the small wine shop dispersed, and Zhou Qing walked out of it. He moved his lips lightly and transmitted messages to Ye Fan and Pang Bo. After a few breaths, the two of them appeared here.
After Zhou Qing, Ye Fan, and Pang Bo left, Wang Teng was still lying on the mountainside. After a period of crazy struggle, he was already lying flat, his heart was ashen, his will was depressed, and his eyes were blankly staring. I stared at the sky, not knowing what I was thinking.
It was not until three days later that a crane flew from Beiyuan and rescued Wang Teng.
And this has become one of the hot topics of discussion among the disciples of Qishi Mansion, and they all laugh at Wang Teng.
As for what happened in the Qishi Mansion, because the disciples of the Qishi Mansion were either from the top forces in each major domain, or were casual cultivators with unparalleled opportunities, it quickly spread throughout the five major domains, immediately causing an uproar.
