Mengqi was filled with doubts and thoughts. He restrained his emotions, stripped away his subjective views, and started to investigate the matter of Gu Xiaosang and the Golden Emperor from the beginning.
As the investigation went deeper, he, who was in an extremely calm state, gradually found some problems.
Before Xiaosang's resurrection, although the Golden Emperor had been sending his men to look for the clues she left behind, and wanted to kill her completely to eliminate the biggest hidden danger, it seemed that they had achieved other goals by accident …
In the matter of the Green Lotus of Chaos in Yuxu Palace, he had enough reasons to let Sha Wujing wake up in advance. Not only did it not cause any extreme reaction from other bigwigs, but Sha Wujing was also willing to do it, so that the other oracles would not be dissatisfied. Sha Wujing's early awakening made the Luo Sect the first force in the world with the power of the Legendary Realm. He carried a mysterious corpse from the depths of Spirited Mountain, and he must have completed other arrangements …
In the battle of the realm of the ancient Fusang tree, he used some kind of supernatural power to resolve the hidden danger there through Sha Wujing, and got the special fruit that could contact the Qing Emperor. He then 'gave' it to me at the right time. Today, when the Qing Emperor crossed the sea of bitterness and reached the Nirvana Realm, it played a vital role …
The four oracles came to probe more to involve the power of the Yuxu Palace, and to fight for opportunities for Maitreya and the demon race …
He thought of the Hongmen Banquet on Golden Turtle Island, where the Ajati Matriarch sent the Wizard King of this World and Yuan Hong to discuss something, which seemed to be related to the Bell of the Eastern Emperor. In the end, the Qing Emperor met them, and she also used some of her power to trigger the subsequent changes, sending them back to the Middle Ages. Although it was the work of Lord Dao De, the trigger was undoubtedly the Golden Emperor. The ending of the matter was that the Bhaisajyaguru was enlightened, and the Qing Emperor took the key step to achieve the Nirvana Realm.
Combined with his judgment that the Qing Emperor and the Golden Emperor trusted each other, the truth was obvious!
Mengqi thought to himself, The Golden Emperor in the past and the Ajati Matriarch now seem to be very good at covering up other plans with logical things to achieve their real goals. And the so-called logical things are likely to be created by her!
"The Metal Emperor doesn't have a strong desire to kill me and is very lenient towards me. He seems to attach great importance to Xiao Sang's resurrection, but in fact, he only uses it when needed. Either Xiao Sang is not a hidden danger to him, or he has a backup plan that even Xiao Sang doesn't know about. He is confident that he can easily solve the problem before Xiao Sang becomes a real threat to him. Therefore, he can use this as an excuse to make his move."
"This matter has the attention of many influential figures of the Nirvana Realm. If Xiaosang was not a hidden danger to the Golden Emperor and not an obstacle that he could not complete, it would not be able to hide from their eyes at all. After all, this is the crux of the crux. They could not possibly think so just because the Golden Emperor said so."
"Excluding other impossibilities, there seems to be only one explanation left. That is, the Metal Emperor has absolute confidence in eliminating the hidden danger before Xiaosang becomes a threat to him …"
Just as Mengqi was about to wake Xiaosang up in advance and tell her about his judgment, he suddenly thought of something.
"Based on her performance these days, Xiaosang seems to have something else to rely on. She has a lot of secrets, but I don't know if she can resist the Golden Emperor's backup plan …"
"Since her resurrection, Xiaosang often shows a side similar to the Golden Emperor's temperament. Although it is the inevitable result of memory and knowledge, there are also traces of deliberate imitation. I guess in her heart, in order to defeat the Golden Emperor and completely break free from him, she must grow into another Golden Emperor. This shows that the Golden Emperor has left a deep shadow in her heart. The more she knows about him, the more she feels that he is unbeatable. Only by imitating him and growing into him can she compete with him."
"However, imitating the Golden Emperor will never make something that belongs to her. She will never be able to break free from his shackles, and she will never be able to defeat him …"
Thinking of this, Mengqi sighed softly, and a deep sense of pity for Gu Xiaosang emerged in his heart.
Because he did not inherit the memory and knowledge of the Devil Buddha, he cut off the connection and only considered external strength, the level of the realm, and the supernatural powers of martial arts. His body and mind were one. Although Gu Xiaosang benefited from the Golden Emperor's memory and knowledge, which allowed her to plan many things with foresight, shrewdness, and wisdom that far surpassed her peers and even her seniors, and to achieve satisfactory results, the fight between her and the Golden Emperor was not only physical, but also spiritual. The kind of torment, the kind of wandering, and the kind of pain was not something that could be understood by others. Hence, she had developed an unpredictable mind.
After enduring such torture for a long time, it was no wonder that she would empathize with him when she met him.
For the time being, Mengqi gave up the idea of disturbing Gu Xiaosang to go into closed-door training. He believed that she could also sense the Golden Emperor's real intention and must have made corresponding arrangements. It was better to wait for her to complete her training before discussing in detail.
For the first time, Mengqi felt that Gu Xiaosang was not completely incomprehensible.
Putting aside his thoughts, Mengqi took out the Myriad World Talisman and contacted Qi Zhengyan. He deliberately did not mention the previous fight for the Heaven Conferring Platform and said directly, "I want to resurrect Senior Chonghe."
The conflict between them and Gao Lan originated from their own path, ideals, and obsessions. He could not find a solution for the time being, and it was impossible for him to completely stand on either side, so it was better not to mention it.
Qi Zhengyan's emotionless voice came, "Most of the power of the List of Deification is cleverly sealed by the Ancient Buddha Bodhi. Although the power is not strong, it is extremely mysterious. Even with the experience and knowledge of the Demon Lord, I can't find a way to eliminate it in a short time. I can only resolve it slowly, and there is hope of success in at least five years."
"What does the Ancient Buddha Bodhi want to do?" Mengqi did not hide his doubts.
He could understand that it was not the time to separate the Heaven Conferring Platform, the List of Deification, and the Real Spirit Map. After all, it involved the Heavenly Court, the earth, and the Nether World. The bigwigs of the Nirvana Realm would not sit idly by and have their own ideas. But why did he seal the List of Deification? Was the Real Spirit Map sealed?
Qi Zhengyan answered frankly, "I don't know, but the people of the Nirvana Realm would never be reckless in doing things. There must be a deeper reason."
"Makes sense …" Mengqi nodded. While thinking about the real purpose of Taoist Zhunti sealing the List of Deification, he criticized Senior Brother Qi silently. Who said that the people of the Nirvana Realm would never be reckless in doing things? When I reach the Nirvana Realm, I'll do a few reckless things for you to see!
Qi Zhengyan turned around and said, "Lao Wu is a little guilty, but he doesn't regret it. Next, we plan to withdraw into Nine Serenities."
"Withdraw into Nine Serenities?" Mengqi was about to say that he would mediate and see if they could get along peacefully, but he heard the words Nine Serenities.
Parting was imminent, so Qi Zhengyan gave a rare detailed answer, "Gao Lan is powerful, so we can only avoid him. Within Nine Serenities, the strength and realm of the Demon Saints will be improved. Moreover, the Evil Demons and Evil Gods are contaminated by the Nine Serenities and are limited by their nature, so they rarely unite. Even if we can't defeat them one by one, it's enough to give us a foothold and room for growth."
As the descendant of the Demonic Lord, he naturally knew some of the secret passages. Previously, the Demon Saint returned to the Legend because he broke through in Nine Serenities.
"What about the Southern Wasteland?" Mengqi thought about it and did not dissuade him.
The descendant of the Demonic Lord returned to Nine Serenities, just like a dragon returning to the sea.
"To let everyone in the world, regardless of whether they are rich or poor, or have high or low qualifications, as long as they work hard and want to improve themselves, they can obtain a martial art that is not worse than others. This was my original wish, and now I have barely achieved it." Qi Zhengyan's tone was a little emotional, "And thanks to your Myriad World Access, this matter has already been rooted in humanity, so it will not fail because of my departure. Those Evil Demons and Evil Gods in the Nine Serenities who can't break free from their nature and destiny are also living beings, and they also need opportunities."
Even if the Southern Wasteland returned to the Great Zhou Dynasty, he believed that Mengqi would not change the current situation of learning martial arts, and neither would Gao Lan, because this was beneficial to humanity!
Mengqi listened with mixed feelings. Senior Brother Qi's belief was more important than life. He opened his mouth and only said one sentence,
"Take care."
"There will be a day when we meet again." Qi Zhengyan smiled, then turned his head and said to the Demon Saint, Zhao Heng, the Demon Saint, and his subordinates who gathered nearby, "Let's go, our target is the Nine Serenities!"
"Let's go, our target is the Nine Serenities!"
…
Putting down the Myriad World Talisman, Mengqi sighed, then retracted his mind and began to do his own things.
In this experience, he fully realized the horror of the Nirvana Realm and the power of the Great Mediums. He also realized that his current strength was not enough. At critical moments, he could not play a big role at all. Even the plan to seize the List of Deification or help Han Guang establish the Heavenly Court had completely disappeared because of Taoist Cundi. There was no other way, this was Heaven's Will. Therefore, his most urgent thought at the moment was to improve himself as soon as possible.
In addition, the matter of helping his master secretly establish another Underworld had to be put on the agenda.
Now that there was the Qing Emperor, the Nirvana Realm who could walk on the ground, it would be very peaceful for a period of time, very suitable for isolation and self-improvement … Mengqi withdrew his thoughts, surrounded by darkness. Once again, his spirit traveled to the Myriad World, leaving behind the Imprint of Additional Self.
In the quiet room of Yuxu Palace, it was quiet and serene again.
