Chapter 453

Xu Qi 'an said with a smile,

"Your Majesty, I didn't fail you!

"I've finally become a half-step Martial God after so many trials and tribulations.

"The Thunder Prefecture is safe for now. The Buddha has returned to the West Region."

Beside him, Nine-Tailed Fox rolled her eyes.

"Half-step Martial God, he really became a half-step Martial God …" Huaiqing finally got the answer she wanted. Her heart that was hanging in her throat immediately calmed down. However, her joy and excitement did not diminish. Instead, they surged into her heart.

Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were sparkling with joy. She couldn't control the smile at the corner of her mouth.

As expected, he had never disappointed her, whether it was the bronze gong or the world-famous Xu Yinluo.

Huai Qing had always had the highest expectations for him, but he still exceeded her expectations time and time again, bringing her surprises.

Ning Yan had become a half-step Martial God, and together with Shen Shu, the veteran half-step Martial God, they finally had the confidence to challenge the Witchcraft Cult or the Buddhist Sect. They could play this game of chess. "Sigh, that hothead back then is now a half-step Martial God. It feels like a lifetime has passed …" Wei Yuan felt relieved, but at the same time, he had mixed feelings. He sighed, felt gratified, satisfied, and proud.

Considering his identity and the many experts in the imperial study, Wei Yuan maintained the calmness and calmness befitting his position. He said slowly,

"Well done."

"Half-step Martial God. If I remember correctly, he's the first half-step Martial God of the Central Plains. He's as rare as Confucian Sages. He must be recorded in the history books: Xu Yinluo studied at Yunlu Academy since he was young, and was apprenticed to the dean, Zhao Shou …" Zhao Shou was excited when he thought of this. He was about to congratulate him when he saw Wei Yuan's calm and collected expression. Therefore, he had to maintain the calmness befitting his position and said slowly,

"Very good!"

The Great Consecrator was saved. Xu Qi 'an had successfully become a half-step Martial God. His judgment was right. Huh, these two old men are very calm … Wang Zhenwen felt like he had returned to the time when he was the top scorer in the Imperial Examinations. He wanted to sing a song and get drunk all night.

However, seeing that Zhao Shou and Wei Yuan were both calm, he maintained the calmness befitting his identity and nodded slowly.

"Congratulations on your promotion!"

Xu Qi 'an secretly praised them and said, "As expected of the big shots in the officialdom, they don't show their emotions on their faces.

"Unfortunately, I have no idea on how to become an Martial God."

"But I have no idea on how to become an Martial God." Wei Yuan almost opened his mouth to teach him how to do things, but then he remembered that his former subordinate was already a real big shot and didn't need his advice, so he held it in.

Then he asked,

"What's the situation in the Thunder Prefecture?

While the Transcendents pondered, Arhat Du'E said:

"Only a large town and two thousand people were destroyed."

The Jinlian Taoist priest and Hengy Yuan opened their mouths, but they were too slow.

"From this detail, it can be seen that Dhu Lohan is the most concerned about the common people. He was really brainwashed by the Mahayana Buddhism. No, he was baptized …" Xu Qi 'an evaluated in his mind.

Huaiqing nodded with a heavy expression. She looked at Xu Qi 'an and said,

"When you were not overseas, the Buddhists held a Dharma Assembly. According to Dhu Lohan, the Buddha used this assembly to cause a terrible change.

"We don't know the specific reason, but you should know the result. He became a monster that devoured everything."

She took the initiative to explain the whole story of this "disaster" to Xu Qi 'an.

The Jinlian Taoist priest continued,

"When Dhu Lohan left the West Regions, the Buddha didn't hurt him. But when the Mahayana Buddhism was established, the Buddha couldn't wait to devour him.

"Obviously, the change of the Buddha has something to do with the luck. This is probably the so-called Great Trial."

Wei Yuan sighed,

"From the behavior of the Buddha, we can infer the situation after the Poison God and the Witch God got rid of the seal.

"It's just that we still don't know why transcendent-class is doing this and what their goal is."

The Transcendents frowned and said nothing. They vaguely felt that they were close to the truth, but they couldn't accurately reveal it.

But there was just a thin layer of window paper that was hard to pierce.

"Isn't it to replace the Heavenly Dao …" Nine-Tailed Fox was about to speak, but Xu Qi 'an beat her to it.

"I already know the truth of the Great Trial."

In the imperial study, everyone looked at him in surprise.

"You know?"

Azuro looked at the Half-step Martial God. He couldn't believe that a guy who had been out at sea for months knew the secret of the Great Trial.

Daoist Priest Golden Lotus and Wei Yuan felt their hearts skip a beat.

Seeing Xu Qi 'an nodding, Yang Gong, Sun Xuanji and the others were slightly moved.

This story had to start from the creation of the world … Under the eager and expectant gazes of the crowd, Xu Qi 'an said, "

"I know everything, including the first Great Trial, the fall of the Gods and Demons."

Finally, the truth of the fall of the Gods and Demons … Everyone was excited and listened attentively.

Xu Qi 'an said slowly,

"We have to start from the beginning, the birth of the Gods and Demons. How much do you know about the Gods and Demons?"

Azuro answered first,

"The Gods and Demons are born from the Heaven and Earth. They are born strong. They don't need to cultivate to control the power to move the mountains and fill the seas. Every God and Demon has a Core Aura given by the Heaven and Earth. "

They didn't add anything else. What Azuro said was probably all they knew about the Gods and Demons.

Xu Qi 'an sighed,

"They are born from the Heaven and Earth and die from the Heaven and Earth. This is inevitable karma."

Inevitable karma … Everyone frowned. For some reason, they felt that there was a huge mystery in that sentence.

Xu Qi 'an didn't keep them in suspense.

He continued, "On this trip out to sea, I passed by an island. That island was vast and boundless. According to the descendants of the Gods and Demons who lived on it, it was an island formed after the death of an ancient Gods and Demons.

"The Gods and Demons are born from the Heaven and Earth. They are a part of the Heaven and Earth. That's why there are such changes after their deaths."

Du 'e's eyes lit up as he blurted out,

"Buddha!

"Buddha can also transform into Alan Tuo. Now, he has even become the entire Western Regions. There must be a connection between them."

After saying that, the old monk stared at Xu Qi 'an with a pleading expression.

The ancient Gods and Demons turned into islands after their deaths, and Buddhas have similar characteristics. In other words, Buddhas and ancient Gods and Demons are the same in a sense?

Everyone had different thoughts and inspiration.

Xu Qi 'an chuckled and placed his hands behind his back.

"The first and second great tribulations have the same purpose."

"What purpose?" Huaiqing immediately asked.

The others also wanted to know the answer.

Xu Qi 'an did not answer immediately. After a few seconds, he slowly said,

"To replace the Heavenly Law and become the will of the World of the Nine States."

There was a sudden clap of thunder that stunned all the Transcendents in the imperial study.

The Jinlian Taoist priest took a deep breath. The shrewd Daoist Master of the Earth Sect could not calm down.

He asked blankly, "What, what did you say?"

Xu Qi 'an glanced at everyone and found that their expressions were not much different from the Jinlian Taoist priest's. Even Wei Yuan and Zhao Shou looked stunned.

"At the beginning of the world, the Nine Regions were ignorant. Many years later, the Gods and Demons were born and life began. At this stage, the order was chaotic. There was no day or night, no four seasons, and the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements were in a mess. There was no spiritual energy in the world for humans and demons to cultivate.

"Many years later, as the world evolved, the Five Elements should have been separated and the Four Poles should have been fixed, but the world could not evolve. Do you know why?"

No one answered him. Everyone was still digesting this earth-shattering news.

Xu Qi 'an then looked at the Ruler of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom. The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox reluctantly played the role of the sidekick and helped the stinky man regain his dignity.

"It's easy to guess. Because the world was incomplete, the Gods and Demons took away the power of the world."

"Smart!"

Xu Qi 'an said approvingly.

"So, in the ancient times, a door of light appeared, the door to the 'Heavenly Dao'. The Gods and Demons were formed by the rules of the world, which meant that they could pass through this door. As long as they successfully opened the door, the Gods and Demons could become the Heavenly Dao. "

Luo Yuheng came to a realization.

"Is this the reason why the Gods and Demons killed each other? But the Gods and Demons all died in the end. Or, the current Heavenly Dao is one of the Gods and Demons from back then? "

She asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Under everyone's gazes, Xu Qi 'an shook his head.

"The Gods and Demons killed each other, and the spiritual essence returned to the world. In the end, the Nine States obtained enough spiritual essence and closed the door to heaven."

So that was the reason. No wonder the Buddha had such a change.

The Transcendents present were all smart people. When they thought about the situation of the Buddha incarnating in the Western Regions and saw it with their own eyes, they no longer doubted Xu Qi 'an's words.

"It's unbelievable that living beings can incarnate into the world and replace the Heavenly Dao," Yang Gong murmured, "If Ning Yan hadn't told me, I wouldn't have believed that this was the truth."

As soon as he finished speaking, a Light shot out from his sleeve and hit him on the head.

"I'm his teacher …"

Yang Gong chided the ruler in a low voice and quickly put it away. His expression was a little awkward.

It was like a public event where a child was ignorant and messed around, embarrassing the adults.

Fortunately, everyone was immersed in the huge shock and did not pay attention to him.

Wei Yuan said in a low voice:

"Then the second Great Tribulation is coming because the door to heaven has opened again?"

Xu Qi 'an shook his head:

"The Great Tribulation this time is different from the Ancient Era. There is no Light Door this time. The transcendents have taken another path, and that is to plunder providence."

Then, he told everyone the details of how devouring providence could be "recognized" and naturally replace the Heavenly Dao, including the secret that the gatekeepers could only be from the Warrior System.

"So this is the reason for the transcendents to plunder providence." Wei Yuan pinched his eyebrows and sighed.

The Jinlian Taoist priest and the others were silent. They were immersed in their own thoughts and digested the shocking news.

At this time, Huaiqing frowned and said:

"This is the result of the current stage of evolution? Or could it be that the Nine States' Heavenly Dao has always been replaceable? "

This was very important, so everyone "woke up" one by one and looked at Xu Qi 'an.

"I can't give you an answer. Perhaps this world is like that, or perhaps as Your Majesty said, this is only the current stage of the situation" Xu Qi 'an pondered and said.

Huaiqing nodded while thinking:

"Which is why, the current stage requires a gatekeeper, and you are the gatekeeper chosen by the Supervisor."

"Daoist Lord!" the orange cat Taoist priest suddenly said:

"I finally understand why the Daoist Lord established the three sects of Heaven, Earth, and Human. It was all to replace the Heavenly Dao and become the will of the Nine States."

After saying so, he looked at Xu Qi 'an, seemingly wanting to seek confirmation from him.

Xu Qi 'an nodded:

"Devouring providence to replace the Heavenly Dao was the method that the Daoist Lord researched and created."

Created by the Daoist Lord? He really is an unparalleled figure … Everyone sighed and was shocked.

Wei Yuan asked:

"Did you learn these secrets from the Supervisor?"

Xu Qi 'an calmly replied:

"I met with the Supervisor in the Outer Seas. He is still sealed by Desolation. Let me tell you a piece of bad news. Desolation is currently in a deep slumber. When it wakes up again, it will most likely return to its peak."

Another, another Supreme Rank … Huaiqing and the others only felt a bitter taste in their mouths. The joy of defeating the Buddha and taking over Thunder Prefecture was completely gone.

If the Buddha, the Sorcerer God, the Gu God, and Desolation were to join forces, Daibun would have no chance of turning the tables.

The silent Master Hengy Yuan had a bitter expression on his face and couldn't help but say:

"Perhaps, we can try to divide the enemies and rope in one or two Supreme Ranks."

No one said anything.

Master Hengy Yuan looked around and finally looked at Xu Yinluo who was the closest to him:

"What does your excellency Xu think?"

Xu Qi 'an shook his head:

"Desolation and the Gu God are gods and demons. One has been sleeping in the Southern Border for countless years, and the other has been wandering in the Outer Seas. They are not like the Buddha and the Sorcerer God.

"Once they come out, the first thing they have to do is to gather luck. The Southern Border has a small population and weak luck. If you were the Gu God, what would you do? "

Master Hengy Yuan understood:

"Attack the Central Plains and annex the territory of Daibun."

The Western Region had been replaced by the Buddha, and the Northeast could not escape from the hands of the Sorcerer God. Therefore, annexing the Central Plains was the best choice.

The same was true for Desolation.

"What about the Sorcerer God and the Buddha?" Hengy Yuan asked unwillingly.

Azuro sneered:

"Of course they will take the opportunity to divide the Central Plains. Will they help Daibun to protect the Central Plains? Could it be that the Great Feng Clan would hand over their territory to him to express their gratitude?

"You are such a stupid monk."

Dhu Lohan's face was solemn:

"In front of the supreme class, all schemes are ridiculous and pathetic."

Xu Qi'an heaved a sigh of relief and said helplessly:

"That's why I said I didn't find a way to become an Martial God."

At this time, Wei Yuan said: "It's not completely impossible. Since you have become a half-step Martial God, go to Jing Shan City and see if you can destroy the Sorcerer God Cult. As for the Southern Border, move all the people of the Gu Tribe to the Central Plains. This can not only gather strength, but also weaken the Gu God.

"After solving these two problems, Xu Ningyan, go to the sea again. Maybe the Supervisor is waiting for you there.

"Your Majesty, the arrangement of the Mahayana Buddhists should be implemented as soon as possible, so that we can gather luck better."

With just a few words, he had arranged everything that needed to be done.

Suddenly, Chu Yuanzhen asked:

"Where is Miaozhen? Why didn't she come back with you?"

Oh, and Miaozhen … Everyone suddenly thought of Flying Swallow Heroine.

Xu Qi'an was stunned and his heart sank:

"It was an emergency, so I directly teleported back, so I didn't see her on the way. I don't think she is still looking for me overseas."

The members of the Heaven & Earth Society bowed to him, indicating that he was the scapegoat.

The Jinlian Taoist priest said:

"I will inform her for you."

He took out the Earth Book fragment and sent a private message to Li Miaozhen:

[Nine: Miaozhen, come back, Buddha has left.]

[Two: What?]

[Nine: Xu Ningyan has returned a long time ago. He joined hands with Shenshu to defeat Buddha. Peace is temporarily.]

There was a long silence. [Two: Why didn't you inform me?]

The Jinlian Taoist priest could almost see Li Miaozhen's eyebrows furrowed and her teeth clenched.

[Nine: Xu Ningyan said he forgot about you.]

[Two: Oh!]

Silence.

The Jinlian Taoist priest put down the Earth Book and said with a smile:

"Miaozhen is still overseas."

Xu Qi 'an coughed:

"She is not angry, right?"

The Jinlian Taoist priest shook his head:

"She is calm, not angry."

The members of the Heaven & Earth Society bowed to Xu Qi 'an again. Don't believe me.

Xu Qi 'an bowed back with a solemn expression.

After a brief discussion, everyone went their separate ways.

"Xu Yinluo, please wait for a moment. I have something to ask you."

Huaiqing purposely asked Xu Qi 'an to stay.

"I will stay as well." The Ruler of Myriad Beasts smiled.

Huai Qing looked at her unhappily. However, the vixen was not a tactful person. She was thick-skinned and did not take it seriously.

Huaiqing didn't ask him to stay for anything important. She just wanted to ask him about the details of the voyage and learn about the world overseas.

"The resources overseas are abundant and inexhaustible. Unfortunately, the Daibun navy is limited and can't sail far. Moreover, there are many descendants of gods and devils. It's too dangerous …" Huaiqing said regretfully.

Xu Qi 'an casually said a few words. He just wanted to go home and arrange flowers and jade, and reunite with his little wife that he had not seen for a long time.

Nine-Tailed Fox rolled her eyes and said with a smile:

"Speaking of treasures, Xu Yinluo asked for a treasure for Her Majesty on the Mermaid Island."

Huaiqing suddenly became interested and looked at Xu Qi 'an expectantly.

Mermaid Pearl … Xu Qi 'an glared at Nine-Tailed Fox. She was up to something again.

Nine-Tailed Fox kicked him with her feet and urged, "Don't worry.

"Where is the Mermaid Pearl? Take it out. It's a unique pearl in the world. It's priceless."

Xu Qi 'an thought about it seriously for a long time. He decided to go with the flow and cooperate with the vixen.

Because he also wanted to know what Huaiqing felt for him.

Among all the women he knew, the Empress was the most scheming one. She had a strong desire for power and ambition that did not lose to any man.

She was a rational career woman.

She was completely different from the stupid princess in Lin 'an who was in love.

Huaiqing's closeness to him was because she depended on the strong and used him.

Or did she like and admire him from the bottom of her heart?

If she liked him, was it deep or shallow? Did she have a good impression of him or loved him to the bone?

Let the Mermaid Pearl verify it.

Xu Qi 'an immediately took out the Mermaid Pearl, held it in his palm and said with a smile:

"This is it."

The Mermaid Pearl was milky white, round and translucent, emitting a faint light. It was obviously priceless. Any woman who loved jewelry would be happy to see it.

Huaiqing was also a woman. She liked it at a glance. "Let me have a look."

She raised her hand and the Mermaid Pearl in Xu Qi 'an's palm flew to Huaiqing.
