The Burning Heaven Emperor of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 260 Plan ahead
After discussing with the Jade Emperor, Li Qing also left the Miluo Palace, but he did not return to the Gouchen Mansion, but left the Heavenly Court and the Lower Realm.

Yuehua is now resident in Tsinghua Mountain in Luzhou, Beiju. Under the governance of their husband and wife, the land of thousands of miles centered on Tsinghua Mountain has completely eliminated evil spirits, and the sky and earth are clear and bright, with a unique scenery.

After Li Qing went down to the lower realm, he did not go towards Qinghua Mountain, but escaped into the void, and quietly came to the underworld without a trace.

Yinshan, Pingxin Palace.

After many years, Li Qing paid a visit to Empress Pingxin again, more precisely, it should be Empress Houtu.Inside the Pingxin Hall, Hou Tu and Li Qing sat in the positions of host and guest respectively.

As for Li Qing's arrival, even Empress Houtu, who possesses the power of a saint, is not sure, but she can roughly guess some of Li Qing's intentions, which must be related to the abnormality of the heavenly secret not long ago.

"This time I came to see my mother, firstly because of the affairs of the Wu clan, and secondly, to ask my mother for advice." Li Qing said straight to the point, without too much deviousness.

"Oh!" There was a trace of strangeness on Houtu's cold and beautiful face, and then he nodded slightly, motioning for Li Qing to continue.

"For the last incident, I would like to thank my mother for keeping her promise and helping me save my many disciples." Li Qing thanked him sincerely.

"This is an agreement between you and me, and it is also to repay you for completing the karma of the Twelve Capitals, and you don't have to thank me." Houtu said bluntly, it was just a deal, nothing to talk about Friendship at all.

Li Qing used the power of destruction and the killing power of the Zhuxian Sword Formation to sacrifice the Great Formation of the Twelve Capitals of the Gods and Demons, which doubled the power of the Great Formation of the Gods and Demons of the Twelve Capitals, which is a great kindness to the Wu Clan.If Yingzheng and others used the method of sacrificial refining, the Great Formation of the Twelve Capitals of the Gods and Gods would be mediocre in power, and it could not be compared with what it is now, the heavens and the earth.

"Hehe!" Li Qing smiled lightly, disapproving. "This time I came to see the empress, in addition to thanking the empress, I also want to reach a deal with the empress, and this deal is beneficial to the Wu Clan without any harm."

"Let's listen to it." Hou Tu'e frowned slightly and said softly.

"Although Niangniang has not been sanctified, her cultivation level is definitely beyond our comparability. I think Niangniang also sensed the change of Tianji not long ago." Li Qing said in a serious voice, and Houtu nodded when he heard the words, acquiescing to the matter.

Although she has not been sanctified, but by virtue of the merits of turning into the six realms of reincarnation, her strength is comparable to that of a saint, and the only difference is the foundation of sanctification.Therefore, she can sense more celestial changes than Li Qing. Although she doesn't know the source of this celestial change, she still has a vague sense of it.

"The change of the secrets, either the general trend is coming again, or the calamity is about to start, and now there is an immortal Dao conference in the fairy world, and the momentum of riding the wind is still showing, so most of the reasons for the changes of the secrets will fall in this fairy way At the meeting." Li Qing said in a deep voice, at the same time looking at Houtu with bright eyes, observing her Houtu, seeing Houtu nodded slightly, Li Qing knew that what he expected was right.

"You're right. This celestial event has a lot to do with the Immortal Dao Conference, but even I can't count the connection." Houtu replied in a positive voice.Houtu's opening not only affirmed Li Qing's conjecture, but also responded to Li Qing's inference about his own cultivation.

Sure enough, she does have the strength comparable to that of a saint, but she doesn't know if there is any limit to this strength.Li Qing secretly thought.

"My lady's explanation made me more sure of my deduction." Li Qing said calmly. "Whether it is a general trend or a catastrophe, this matter must be related to Shushan, or to Buddhism. If the general situation returns, it may be the time when Shushan takes advantage of the trend, but the final beneficiary is definitely not Shushan."

"Isn't it Shushan? Could it be Buddhism?" Hou Tu'e asked with a slight frown.

"Buddhist? If the Buddhist sect that has experienced great prosperity becomes the winner of this general trend again, it will become unstoppable. Otherwise, I would not allow this kind of result to happen, let alone those few people." Li Qing chuckle.

"Then who do you think will be the final beneficiary if there is a general trend?" Houtu nodded and asked again.

"Confucianism, or Confucianism." Li Qing's words were not surprising and endless.

Sure enough, when Hou Tu heard this, he immediately showed shock. He was obviously shocked by the "Confucianism" in Li Qing's mouth. "Confucianism? How dare he, Kong Qiu, set up his own school."

"There is no reason to dare. There was a Buddhist sect standing on its own before, which has already broken the situation of the Taoist sect's dominance. It is all right to come to the Confucian sect." Li Qing said calmly. "If the empress has the heart, she can set up her own sect, how about the Wu sect?"

"Huh!" Hou Tu snorted coldly, seemingly dissatisfied with Li Qing's jokes about her, but actually he was thinking about the possibility of this matter.If she really established herself as a witch clan, then the witch clan can also get rid of the restrictions of race, and she can also justifiably lead the witch clan to join the struggle for orthodoxy, allowing the witch clan to have a greater living space.

But the dream is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. As soon as this idea appeared, it was rejected by her in a blink of an eye.The reason for such a decisive veto was because of her situation.Although she already has the strength comparable to a saint, but she is subject to a lot of restrictions, it is unrealistic to want to stand on her own, and the saint will never allow her to stand on her own, it is so difficult!
"The most holy Confucius, he had the appearance of a saint thousands of years ago. Now, with the growing strength of Confucianism, he has occupied the temples of the human race, and his theory has spread to the entire human race. His momentum has become irresistible. Confucius' cultivation base must also rise. , I don’t know how far it has gone, maybe the three corpses have been chopped off.” Li Qing said in a deep voice, frowning.It can be said that the threat Confucius posed to him was even greater than that of Sakyamuni, so he couldn't help but treat him carelessly.

"If he really cut out the three corpses, it would be enough to set up a Confucian school." Hou Tu mused.

The three quasi-sages are the only ones in the world, and their cultivation has reached the peak of the immortal way, even compared with the saints, they are not much different, the only difference is the foundation of holiness.

Since Pangu opened the sky, the number of people who have cut out the three corpses will never exceed one hand. If you count them carefully, there are only Daozu Hongjun, Demon Ancestor Luohu, Taiqing Taishang, and Buddhism Jieyin, and the three corpses have not been cut out. It's still two words, but the Taishang definitely killed three corpses.Now with the addition of Kong Qiu who may have killed the three corpses, it is only one hand.

Daoist Hongjun has been in harmony with the way of heaven, and the demon ancestor Luohu has become a thing of the past. Taishang and Jieyin are both saints. Naturally, the power of the three corpses quasi-sages cannot be revealed, but the three corpses quasi-sages are definitely very, very powerful.

On this point, Houtu absolutely has a say.Although Houtu is not a quasi-sage of the three corpses, with the help of the merits of the six realms of reincarnation, she is between the three corpses and the quasi-sages of the two corpses, and possesses some abilities that only the quasi-sages of the three corpses can have.For example, you can use the power of the ethereal Dao to add to your body to make your Dao Law more complete and powerful.

With the help of the power of the Dao, even saints can't do it, because today's saints are saints of the way of heaven, so all they can use is the power of the way of heaven, so even Taishang and Jieying can't compare with the power of the way of heaven.

Relying on the existence of the power of the Great Dao, it is also possible for the three corpse quasi-sages to confront the saints, but there is no need to think too much about who is strong and who is weak. The three corpse quasi-sages are definitely not the opponents of the saints, but the saints want to kill the three It is not an easy task to be a corpse.

If Kong Qiu had really cut out the three corpses, coupled with the blessing of orthodox luck, Kong Qiu really didn't have to be afraid of saints.Moreover, the existence of Confucius can also check and balance the saints, which is only good for the way of heaven.As for whether Kong Qiu will be able to prove the Hunyuan Da Luo Jinxian with the combination of three corpses, the way of heaven will not take into account at all, because even Taoist Hongjun failed, let alone Kong Qiu, could Kong Qiu be more amazing than Hongjun? ?
"So, under the general trend, Confucianism will come out." Li Qing said forcefully.There is no way, the general trend is fixed, and Kong Qiu also has this strength, so it is impossible to stop it.

In addition to Confucius, the supreme sage, Confucianism also has two quasi-sages such as Meng Ke and Yan Hui, who are really powerful.

Hou Tu nodded slightly, and she also deeply agreed with this. "What if it is a catastrophe?"

"If it is a catastrophe, it must have something to do with Buddhism." Li Qing said in a deep voice. "The prosperity and decline is the ultimate principle of heaven. The great prosperity of Buddhism has experienced a thousand years of development, and it has reached a peak. Compared with the number of quasi-sages in the sect, there are a few more quasi-sages than before the spread of Buddhism to the East. The number of quasi-sages is already three realms." The sum of other forces. This kind of power is not as good as the forces of the two major periods of Longhan and Lich."

After the spread of Buddhism to the east, there were several more Buddhas in Buddhism, among them was Dingguang Huanxi Buddha, who also had another name, Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal.

"En!" Houtu is the ancestor of the witch clan who has experienced these two major periods, and knows how terrible the situation of Buddhism is.

"When the catastrophe arrives, Buddhism will definitely bear the brunt of it, and it is bound to decline. But it's hard to say how it will decline. It may be caused by our attack, or it may be caused by the disaster." Li Qing said ambiguously.Buddhism will definitely be weakened, but he doesn't know how to weaken it.

"Trouble with the wall? Is there still internal strife in the Buddhist sect?" The Buddhist sect has Shakyamuni sitting in charge. Although there are inevitably internal scrambles, the impact on the Buddhist sect is not great, and it is within an acceptable range.

"This is just my guess." Li Qing replied truthfully. "When the secrets changed before, the twelfth-rank Mieshiheilian under my control also trembled slightly, and I also got a glimpse of the secrets."

The heavenly secrets changed, but not only the black lotus of the extermination of the world, the four swords of Zhu Xian also trembled slightly, and these four swords were also Rahu's objects. change.

"He Tianji?" Hou Tu'e asked with a frown.

"The twelfth-rank Mieshi Black Lotus used to be the belonging of the demon ancestor Luohu. It belongs to the treasure of the demon way. It can attract the reaction of the twelfth-rank Mieshi Black Lotus. It is either related to Rahu or the demon way." Li Qing didn't shy away from anything. The way of magic may be taboo in Houtu's eyes, but in Li Qing's view, it is just one of the three thousand ways.And if there is light, there should be darkness. If you don't let the darkness emerge, the light will also generate darkness by itself, and it will be even more troublesome and uncontrollable.

"Rahu? The way of the devil?" Houtu's expression suddenly became serious. You would never experience the horror of the demon ancestor Luohu without experiencing the final battle of the Dragon and Han Dynasty, and Houtu was lucky enough to hide in a corner to experience this scene.

"Your Majesty, don't be nervous. Whether it's Luohu or the Demon Way, now that it's reappearing, it's already changed. You have to follow the way of heaven, or you will turn into ashes in a blink of an eye." Li Qing said softly. "And I don't think Luo Hu will be able to survive anymore, but it's impossible to say that this magic way will revive and completely change the situation in the Three Realms. Good and evil are opposed to each other, which is more direct than Confucianism."

"It seems that you are sure that the way of magic will rise." Houtu looked at Li Qing with eyes like torches, and he couldn't help but feel a rumbling momentum pressing towards Li Qing.

"It's not certain, but inevitable. Even if the evil ways don't show up this time, the evil ways will rise in the future. This is the general trend of heaven and cannot be stopped." Li Qing said in a deep voice, and at the same time, there was a holy power on his body, and he easily blocked it. Under the power of the Houtu attack.

"It's a great trend of heaven." Hou Tu looked at Li Qing coldly, not angry but arrogant, and after a few breaths of stalemate, he spoke again. "You tell me so much, what does it have to do with my witch clan?"

"It doesn't matter." Li Qing smiled slightly. "I don't know if your mother is interested in letting the witches enter the way of magic?"

"You're looking for death!" Houtu couldn't help but shouted after hearing the words, a cold murderous intent appeared all over his body, and the terrifying Shengwei instantly subdued Li Qing to the ground, leaving him without even a chance to resist.

But this Shengwei came and went quickly.

After Li Qing regained his freedom, he didn't show any discomfort. He first wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then returned to a calm and composed look. He looked at Houtu calmly, and had a general feeling about Houtu's strength. calm.

"In Xuanmen, there is still no place for the witches. Even if the empress finds a way to let the witches go to the underworld to serve as errands, it will only make the witches huddle in the underworld. It is difficult to use their hands and feet, and they will suffer from Buddhism and heaven. It's not a good day for the double suppression." Li Qing said calmly. "However, this way of becoming a demon is different."

Hou Tu looked at Li Qing coldly, and did not intend to speak, and listened to Li Qing's induction in silence.

"The way of the devil is inherently opposed to the way of the immortal. Once the way of the devil rises, it will inevitably compete with the immortal way of the three realms for dominance. If possible, the witch clan may be able to be reborn from Nirvana and shock the Three Realms again." Li Qing really induced it step by step.

The witch clan now holds the Twelve Capitals of the Gods and Demons, and there are two ancestor witches, Yingzheng and Baiqi, sitting in the town. If Chi You's body and the imprisoned Xingtian can be found again, it is not impossible to have two more ancestor witches.At that time, the witch clan with the four great ancestor witches plus a big killing array can't occupy a place in the magic way, that's really useless.

"The matter of the devil way seems illusory now, but this is not my whimsical way, and the devil way will appear soon." Li Qing said in a deep voice. "If the empress is interested, I can help the witch clan by cutting off the teaching."

"Huh! You really have a good plan, and you want to pull my Wu Clan by your side, that's such a good thing." Houtu snorted coldly. "Tell me, what are your plans."

"Haha! Your Majesty has sharp eyes, and you can't hide anything from your Majesty." Li Qing chuckled. "I just want to ask my mother to help me intercept the chaotic clock."

"Chaos clock?" Houtu's face flashed with surprise again.She is very familiar with the Chaos Clock. It is the nemesis of her witch clan, or it is a big killer. No less than three ancestors died under the Chaos Clock.

"That's right!" Li Qing said solemnly with a solemn expression. "As long as my mother helps me to win the Chaos Bell, if the witch clan wants to live in the evil way, I will help you with all my strength. Of course, I can also agree to other conditions that do not affect the interests of my Jiejiao."

"Hmph! Just wanting me to help you capture the treasure of the Chaos Clock with just a verbal promise, you are really calculating!" Houtu snorted coldly.

"Mutual benefit and win-win, everyone gets what they need." Li Qing said calmly.

"Hmph! You can't convince me of this matter with just a few words. Let's talk about it when there are signs of what you said!" Houtu said impatiently.

"Okay!" Li Qing didn't say much. "In this way, I won't bother my mother's meditation, so farewell!"

"Yeah!" Houtu nodded slightly.

Afterwards, Li Qing withdrew from the Pingxin Hall, and disappeared into the void in a flash.

"The way of the devil?" After Li Qing left, Houtu's soft sigh suddenly sounded in the Hall of Pingxin. It seemed that Houtu was still a little moved by the matter of the way of the devil, but it was a very important matter, and she did not dare to make up her mind easily.

Although what Li Qing and Houtu said were all his inferences, under the confirmation of Houtu, they were almost inseparable.The majestic purple qi, the chaotic clock, the self-reliance of Confucianism, and the rise of the magic way, these four things and things are not a mirror image, and they will appear one by one in the future, but they are just in order.

Since these things and things will happen, why not make a plan early, win over people who can be drawn, and get what they need, so that they can cooperate well in the future while ensuring their own interests, so as not to make others cheaper.

Combining vertical and horizontal, Li Qing should not play it too smoothly.

The reason why Li Qing wanted to pull Houtu to help fight for the Chaos Clock was, in the final analysis, to stop teaching.With the Chaos Bell sitting in the town of Jiejiao, the luck of Jiejiao will last forever, and Tongtian has the Chaos Clock in his hand, and he can face the Taishang and Yuanshi with ease. In other words, there will be no tragedy of people being killed and exterminated in the Conferred God War.

The Chaos Clock is really important to Jiejiao, in a sense it is even more important than Primordial Purple Qi.Primordial Purple Qi is the foundation of holiness, but Jiejiao already has a saint named Tongtian sitting in charge, so one more saint has no effect.

After thinking about it again and again, Li Qing tried to persuade the Jade Emperor with the majestic purple energy, and also wanted to persuade the Houtu with the devil's way.

If the Taishang Laojun and others knew that Li Qing had started to plan for major events that might occur in the future, the fear of Li Qing would definitely rise to a higher level, and Li Qing would be wiped out first.
