Marshal Deng of the Conferred God

Chapter 121 Golden Ao Island

Possessing the vast ocean, Weining shakes the sea.The tide surges and the silver mountain fish enter the cave, and the waves turn the snow waves and leave the abyss.The wood and fire are in the corners away from the accumulation of soil, and the east and west cliffs are towering dangerous peaks.On the red cliff, the colorful phoenix sings together, and the unicorn lies alone in front of the cliff.In the forest, there are longevity deer, fairy foxes, spirit birds and mysterious birds.Yaocaoqihua does not thank, green pines and green cypresses Changchun.A wave of fairy spirit permeates Xiaohan, and infinite wonders are in sight.

Jinao Island has been known as the fairy island of the East China Sea since ancient times. The leader of Tongtian established the Jiejiao Taoist Temple in Zizhiya Biyou Palace, and made the island famous throughout the three worlds. Compared with Bajing Palace, Yuxu Palace is even better. No less.

Immortal Island is vast, more than a hundred miles in length and width, suspended above the East China Sea, shrouded in mist and rays of light all the year round, creating an auspicious scene.Moreover, the island's whereabouts are uncertain, making it impossible to find out the exact location, which adds a bit of mystery to the island.

Mystery can arouse people's curiosity, and people have an inexplicable awe. Master Tongtian chose the dojo here, and he has to say that he has a unique vision.

Deng Jiugong was able to enter the island because of his horse. He rode a jade unicorn and walked slowly, but there was no one around.Feeling strange, at this moment a gust of wind blew up in the sky, and the sound of the wind dissipated, and a Taoist with a scarf on his head appeared. He looked at Deng Jiugong in surprise, stepped forward and gave a slap, and said: "The poor Taoist is from Penglai Island to refine Qi." Sun De, a loose man, met a fellow Taoist."

Deng Jiugong returned a salute and said, "Deng Jiugong of Sanshan Pass, fellow Taoist, I invite you."

Sun De has been living abroad for many years and has never heard of this name. However, he saw Deng Jiugong riding a unicorn.Busy said with a cheerful expression: "Where is the Sanshan Pass, could it be that fellow Taoists came from here?"

Deng Jiugong smiled in his heart, pretending to be profound: "No, Deng came from where he came from, and went where he went."

When Sun De heard it, he felt that the other party was unpredictable, and thought to himself, this person might be a god who has become famous in recent years, when he goes back, he must inquire about Deng Jiugong's name, so that he will not be rude when we meet again next time.

"Deng Daoyou, have you heard of the martial arts competition?"

Although Deng Jiugong was invited by the Holy Mother of Guiling, he didn't know anything about the Martial Arts Competition. Seeing Sun De's tone, he seemed to understand it quite well, so he said: "Deng only heard that a grand meeting will be held in the next few days. But I don’t know it’s a contest of martial arts, fellow Daoist Lao, please tell me about the origin of this conference.”

Sun De said: "I don't know, Daoist friends. This martial arts conference has a long history. I heard that it was quite popular during the Yan Emperor's time. It was presided over by Tongtian Sage himself. He selected talents with strong Taoism for Jiejiao and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. Jiejiao It is precisely because of advocating this spirit of martial arts that he has become the number one Taoist sect in the world, with a great momentum, and the position of the leader of the Taoist sect has been up to now."

Deng Jiugong exclaimed: "So that's the case, no wonder the Jiejiao is so huge."

"That's right, the Jiejiao disciples are scattered all over the world, and among the ten monks in the world, the Jiejiao accounts for half of them."

When mentioning Jiejiao, Sun De looked very envious. He always wanted to join Jiejiao, but no one introduced him, so he could only hide in Penglai Island to practice.This time I heard about the Martial Arts Competition, so I came to Jin'ao Island to try my luck, to see if I could be lucky enough to worship under the sect of the Jiejiao Immortal.

Deng Jiugong nodded irrefutably, since there is a grand event of "Ten Thousand Immortals Come to Court" in Jiejiao, there must be nearly ten thousand immortals under the Tongtian Sect. Such a huge number almost monopolizes the practice world.

"Fellow Daoist, Mr. Deng is puzzled by one thing. How many years does this martial arts conference take place, and where does it take place? Do the contestants have to be members of the Jiejiao sect?" , including the high-ranking sage Tongtian, Deng Jiugong was a little excited, he was not worried about being frightened by the fairies, but it would be good for him to learn more about the conference.

Sun Dedao: "Originally, it was held once every 300 years, but in the reign of the emperor, this grand event was suspended. As for the venue, it is held in the Yuntai Square in the center of the island, regardless of status, monks from all over the world can participate, but there is one prerequisite , You must be strong in Taoism, and you can only participate in the competition with a jade card in hand."

Deng Jiugong was puzzled and said: "According to Deng's humble opinion, this martial arts conference has the spirit of promoting morality, why should it be suspended?"

Sun De shook his head and said: "I don't know. It's just that after several conferences, Tongtian Saint confirmed the status of the group of immortals. First, the disciples of the four inner sects, followed by the seven immortals, then Jiuyao, 28 stars, and finally the outer disciples. disciples, headed by four brothers and sisters Zhao Gongming."

Deng Jiugong was silent, Jujiao is mixed, and it has a lot to do with Master Tongtian and his four disciples. Maybe in the early days, Jiejiao was a Taoist sect that promoted Taoism and taught the world, but there were more and more disciples. The management can't handle it, so there is a problem with the execution of the teaching, and it deviates from the original teaching, so it has become the current situation, and it seems to have fallen into a side door.

In the original book, in the face of the defeat of Zhuxian Formation, Jiejiao set up the Ten Thousand Immortal Formation. When Lao Tzu saw the group of immortals, he said something to Yuan Shi: "He taught these disciples. According to my opinion, there is always no distinction between categories. , all were harvested indiscriminately, no matter how deep or deep the roots are, how can they be people who have achieved Taoism and become immortals, who have immortal names but no immortal bones!"

Although Lao Tzu's words meant to belittle the Master Tongtian and elevate himself, but it also revealed the current situation of cutting off the religion.

As the saying goes, there are big difficulties in big things, and small benefits in small things.The establishment of Jiejiao is huge, and the forces are intricate. It is normal for the management of the four major disciples to have loopholes. To put it bluntly, Jiejiao does not have a complete management system.Even if it is the leader of Tongtian, the disciples under the sect only respect him, but they do not carry out his will seriously to the end. That's why the disciples went to the battlefield of Xiqi one after another.

No rules, no rules, Master Tongtian was too partial to the disciples, which caused his prestige to be damaged, the Holy Mother of Guiling, as the four major disciples, took the lead in disobeying the orders of Master Tongtian, and fought against Guang Chengzi in Biyou Palace, not to mention other disciples .

Thinking of this, Deng Jiugong couldn't help laughing wryly, saying that he couldn't worry about his own affairs, and that he still had time to worry about stopping the teaching, which was really unfounded worrying.Even though Jiejiao is in peril, it is still full of glory.

"Deng Daoyou, why don't you and I go together and go to Yuntai Square, where there are crowds of immortals, it must be a lively scene."

Seeing that Deng Jiugong didn't speak for a long time, the atmosphere was a little awkward, Sun De took the initiative to invite him, and he wanted to make friends with this fellow Taoist from Sanshan Pass.After all, from his point of view, Deng Jiugong's aura is introverted, and he is immortal, and he is afraid that his cultivation base is not inferior to his own.

Deng Jiugong hurriedly said: "Deng also has this intention."

The two walked slowly. The martial arts competition will start tomorrow, and there is still plenty of time. With this time, you can take a good look at the scenery on the island.After walking for a while, Deng Jiugong was more and more impressed. He had been to Penglai Island, and he had also been to the back mountain of Daodezhenjun. They were all fairylands, but compared with Jinao Island, there was a huge gap. Only now did he know what real The Holy Land of the Cave.
