The setting sun entered the water, thousands of golden scales, and the river looked dreamy and illusory.
Mengqi relaxed and didn't mention anything about The Conqueror again. He smiled and said, "Is there anything I can help with regarding the Taishang Demon?"
"The Heart Saint, the Benevolent Saint, and the rest are nearby. Many Dharmakayas have gathered. You've just arrived and are unfamiliar with the place, so I'm afraid you won't be able to help much." Ren Qiushui rejected Mengqi's suggestion. After all, this person's background was mysterious and she didn't know if she should trust him. Moreover, his realm was at most similar to hers, so he wouldn't be of much use.
Mengqi only had the mentality of witnessing history, so he didn't insist. He smiled and said, "Fairy Ren, if I have a good friend who has just arrived in Luocheng, how can I find him under the situation where I can't contact him and deduce for the time being?"
Ren Qiushui pondered for a while and smiled, "Just go and listen to the Heart Saint's lecture tomorrow. Since he's here in Luocheng, how would he not know about the Heart Saint? How would he let go of the chance to listen?"
"Good idea." Mengqi clapped his hands and smiled, thinking that it was indeed so. When Senior He Qi knows that he's returned to the Middle Ages and that there's a Heart Saint giving lectures nearby, he'll definitely pay a visit to the Heart Saint and listen to his teachings. He might even ask about his swordsmanship. By then, I just have to get up and ask the Heart Saint a few questions, and it won't be difficult for him to notice and come over to meet me. The communication device previously lost its function temporarily because it returned to the Middle Ages and the cause and effect of heaven's mysteries had become chaotic. It had to be adjusted slowly and do as the Romans do.
Mengqi was about to get up and go to the place where the Heart Saint was giving lectures when he saw Ren Qiushui take out a brown doll that looked like it was made of wood and gold. It was the size of a palm and Ren Qiushui's own appearance was carved on it. It was lifelike but had its own mysteriousness, making Mengqi feel that it was familiar. It seemed to be similar to his own communication device.
"May I know how to address you?" Ren Qiushui asked with a smile.
Lady, don't you know that it's a taboo to ask for someone's name? Do you dare to answer me if I call you? Mengqi's thoughts jumped and he thought of the Taishang Laojun's gourd. He scolded in his heart but smiled, "Su Meng, Su Meng's Su, Su Meng's Meng's Meng's Su."
Ren Qiushui rarely heard such a reply and she couldn't help but smile, "Su, do of Of Of Sect, do you?
Lady of! "" Su of Moon, "of of of of," Su Sect, what? "
"What of of of Of?"
Ren Qiushui said seriously, "The Sage of Benevolence practiced the path of benevolence and righteousness, bemoaning the state of the universe and pitying the fate of mankind.
"What a familiar saying …" Meng Qi raised his eyebrows.
What a familiar saying … Mengqi raised his eyebrows. Seeing this, Ren Qiushui explained, "When one reaches the Exterior realm, the Inner World manifests externally and draws upon the power of nature. One's every move will have great power. If there are no restrictions when fighting, it's not a problem to destroy cities and rivers, change the weather, and leave corpses hundreds of miles away. After attaining Dharmakaya, one's power becomes even stronger. Even if one isn't in the sea of stars and the damage caused is weakened, one can still move mountains and drain seas, and destroy a country by himself. A divine fairy is even more terrifying. Even if one can't destroy the real world, under a prolonged and continuous attack, one can also cause destruction that kills most of the living beings. Only places protected by the corresponding Restrictive Spell can survive."
"With such power and ability to destroy, even if one doesn't have any evil intentions, the aftermath of the fight can still take away thousands of lives just because one doesn't have any self-awareness. One can even turn the world into ruins and usher in the end. Therefore, the Sage of Benevolence believes that all Dharmakaya must have the idea of 'the stronger one is, the heavier one's burden, and the more self-discipline' so as to not destroy the environment that we depend on for survival."
"Under the suggestion of the Sage of Benevolence and the Sage of Arithmetic, the Dharmakaya of the righteous will meet in Guangling. After discussion, they signed the Jiangdong Covenant and voluntarily reduced their attacks. If they meet an enemy, they must first use the Two Realms Division Talisman, Qiankun Geographical Map, and other magic talismans or corresponding powers to isolate the battlefield from the real world to minimize the damage of the aftermath."
Mengqi hadn't reached the point where he disregarded human lives and didn't reject this idea. He just felt that his hands and feet were tied, so he interrupted and asked, "What if the situation is urgent and there's no time to divide the two worlds?"
"Then focus on yourself," Ren Qiushui's eyes flickered, and her voice unconsciously became low.
The Sage of Benevolence might sacrifice himself, but he couldn't force other Dharmakayas to give up their lives for mortals. In that case, unless he could suppress all the Dharmakayas to join forces, there was no way to make them sign the Jiangdong Covenant.
"But this can only restrain the righteous. The heterodox can instead use this to threaten, such as threatening to destroy the city together when they are about to be caught," Mengqi pondered.
Ren Qiushui nodded slightly, "Something like this has indeed happened, but it made the heterodox not so disregard human lives and love to destroy. After all, it's a bargaining chip that can be used to threaten. Of course, the specific situation will be dealt with accordingly. If letting this devil go will cause greater damage and more losses, then it's better to cut it off."
"The covenant is not bad, the Sage of Benevolence is truly benevolent," Mengqi praised. There were very few who could still value mortals when they reached the level of divine immortals.
Of course, this was also the path of the Sage of Benevolence. There was no path that was so persistent. The Nine Saint Swords had not even touched the level of Dharmakayas based on its own changes. It was simple, exquisite, and strong in Dao.
After praising, Mengqi asked with a smile, "The Conqueror didn't sign the Jiangdong Covenant, right?"
It was his first time hearing about the Jiangdong Covenant being destroyed in the Devil Buddha's Great Trial. Perhaps Immortal Yunhe was clearer about it.
"No," Ren Qiushui smiled bitterly.
How could The Conqueror be restrained?
After saying this, Ren Qiushui stopped smiling and asked solemnly, "The Sage of Benevolence is nearby. Are you willing to sign the Jiangdong Covenant?"
"Alright," Mengqi pondered for a while and gave an affirmative answer.
He was still clueless about how to return to the future. It was necessary to get in touch with and understand the Middle Ages, but the saints and The Conqueror were knots that he couldn't get around.
Ren Qiushui seemed to heave a sigh of relief and revealed some girlish charm. The five slender fingers on her right hand danced like they were dancing, instantly forming a strange talisman that landed on the brown puppet.
The brown puppet suddenly flowed with seven-colored radiance, like a flashing neon light. Its breathing paused in pure white, and it opened its mouth, letting out an old and straight voice that seemed to fill the air between heaven and earth, "Fairy Ren, did you meet the Taishang Demon?"
Witnessing this scene, the corner of Mengqi's mouth gradually curled up. Is this the telephone of the Middle Ages?
A telephone based on the Art of Gears and Magic Weapon Refining?
Isn't this similar to what I want? Looks like I have to find the producer to communicate with!
"No." Ren Qiushui didn't exchange pleasantries and said directly, "I met a new Dharmakaya. He wants to visit the Sage of Benevolence and sign the Jiangdong Covenant."
At this time, the Middle Ages could barely be considered as the Celestial World of other universes. There would be Dharmakaya ascending from time to time. Ren Qiushui had previously used this as an excuse for her own origins, and now she was conveniently helping Mengqi cover up.
"I'm very happy that a new friend has such a benevolent heart. Fairy Ren, please bring him over," the Sage of Benevolence's old but vast voice came from the puppet's mouth, only echoing within a radius of ten feet.
"Alright," Ren Qiushui saw the pure white radiance that covered the puppet dissipate.
Mengqi asked with interest, "This is?"
"The Heart Puppet, a little toy made by the Sage of Devices and the Sage of Arithmetic. As long as the respective characteristics are set beforehand, we can communicate remotely. It's very convenient," Ren Qiushui introduced with slight pride.
The Sage of Devices and the Sage of Arithmetic? The Wang family has hidden a lot of good stuff … Mengqi muttered, but this didn't seem to be common enough.
Ren Qiushui kept the Heart Puppet and led Mengqi out of Luocheng to an academy in the nearby mountain peak. The Sage of Benevolence was hiding here, presiding over the search for the Taishang Demon Wu Daoming.
Two conveyance lights landed in front of a straw hut. Mengqi suddenly frowned, and Ren Qiushui immediately exclaimed in surprise, because the Sage of Benevolence wasn't inside!
The Sage of Benevolence who had just spoken and made an agreement wasn't inside!
The Sage of Benevolence had always been a man of his word, so why would he do such a thing? Could it be that something happened? Ren Qiushui's expression became solemn, and the long sword in her hand turned into a light and slashed out.
The wooden door became illusory, and the scene inside was clearly reflected under the sword light. The table, scrolls, and incense burner were placed quietly. The rest was empty, and the Sage of Benevolence was nowhere to be seen.
Ren Qiushui took a step forward and appeared in the straw hut in a flash. She extended her divine sense and carefully searched for clues.
"There are no traces of fighting," Mengqi appeared beside her.
Ren Qiushui nodded slightly and said, "The Sage of Benevolence is one of the best among the saints and the strongest Dharmakaya in the world. He is only one step away from breaking through the limits of heaven and earth and achieving the Legendary realm. No one can make him disappear mysteriously, unless, unless …"
At this moment, an idea flashed across her mind, and her eyes lit up, "Unless the battlefield is isolated from the real world!"
After the Jiangdong Covenant was signed, there were many similar incidents. The room looked calm and peaceful, but it was actually a battle of life and death.
"The Sage of Benevolence didn't leave any explanation. It seems like he was pulled in by force, and I'm afraid there isn't anyone who can pull him in by force, right?" Mengqi already had the Celestial Parting Sword in his hand, and he didn't relax at all.
Ren Qiushui shook her head and said solemnly, "There is, the Demonic Sect's Geomantic Map of the Nine Serenities! If the two Heavenly Kings join forces, they might be able to pull the Sage of Benevolence in by force, and the Sage of Benevolence definitely doesn't want to affect the outside world. "
In today's world, after tens of thousands of years, many saints had already passed away, and the remaining nine could be said to be the best and had the potential to become Legendary, making this era known as the Era of Saints. However, other than the nine saints, there were also other celestial beings and experts, such as the four Great Sage monks, the Qiankun Double Swords, the Double Walls of Sun and Moon, the Six Heavenly Kings of the Demonic Sect, and the unparalleled The Conqueror.
The Six Heavenly Kings of the Demonic Sect had higher qualifications and realms than the Taishang Demon, but they were subdued by Claws Of The Devil and were still integrated by him. Some of them were relatively independent and dissatisfied with Wu Daoming, while some wanted to prosper the Demonic Sect and chose to surrender. Two of the four Skyscraping Demons under Wu Daoming were former Heavenly Kings, and one of them had already passed away.
So, the Demonic Sect had reached an agreement and came out in full strength to rescue the Taishang Demon? Mengqi had just thought of this when he suddenly heard a bang, and the wooden door was blown away by the hurricane. The snowstorm filled the straw hut, making it seem as if it had evolved into a world of its own and isolated from the outside world.
Amidst the howling wind, a figure barged in. He was wearing a black robe, and his skin was as white as snow. He held a black sword that was meandering like a snake in his hand. He looked at Mengqi and Ren Qiushui and snorted,
"Just two juniors?"
"Alright, take it as a sacrifice to the sword."
Ren Qiushui's expression suddenly became unusually solemn, and she transmitted her voice to Mengqi,
"Heavenly King of the Demonic Sword of the Demonic Sect!"
