I am guarding the sky prison in Journey to the West

Chapter 185 What is there to fight for?
"Second brother, after you left, the Jade Emperor didn't stay any longer, so he asked Ran Deng to take away the golden-winged roc eagle."

Li Anran gave a brief account of what happened in the Lingxiao Temple after Yang Jian and Nezha left, and then expressed his own speculation: "The reason why the Jade Emperor is so firm is not all because of Lingshan, but more likely because of the Golden Wing. Dapeng eagle."

"He is the younger brother of Peacock, the son of Phoenix. He has a special status and a profound background, but he committed an unforgivable murder. The Jade Emperor didn't want to offend Phoenix and Peacock, so he refused to let us punish them severely according to the rules of heaven."

"The son of the phoenix, the younger brother of the peacock?"

Nezha was taken aback, and suddenly thought of something: "The peacock you are talking about is that Kong Xuan? The peacock Daming King Bodhisattva in Lingshan?"

Li Anran nodded.

"No wonder!" Nezha suddenly realized, and couldn't help complaining: "This golden-winged roc is lucky to be Kong Xuan's brother, why is it so weak?"

In the catastrophe of conferring gods, Kong Xuan was definitely ranked among the top three powerhouses besides saints, and his colorless divine light caused the disciples of Chanjiao to suffer a lot.

It was Zhunti Taoist who disregarded his status and used the big to bully the small, so he took Kong Xuan down and forcibly converted to Buddhism.

Unexpectedly, Kong Xuan's younger brother is so useless!

Yang Jian already knew about this, but——

If the laws of heaven and earth can only restrain the weak, what is the use of them?

A golden-winged roc eagle in the district should be punished lightly for favoritism, so if it is replaced by Manjusri, Samantabhadra and Avalokitesvara, will it be rewarded?
The corner of Yang Jian's mouth curled into a sneer, and he picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

His repeated pleading in the Lingxiao Palace was to force the Jade Emperor to bow his head with justice, and he was also making the final confirmation.

As a result, as he expected, he also gave up the last bit of fantasy.

The roots are rotten, and no amount of pruning will help!
Similarly, as long as these gods are still there, even if the rules of heaven are modified, the Three Realms will not change in the slightest!
He wants to completely change the Three Realms, not only to revise the rules of heaven, but more importantly, to break all the original things, so that the stinking pool of stagnant water in the Three Realms can be revived!

Yang Jian didn't deliberately pretend to be in front of Li Anran and Nezha, both of them noticed the terrifying aura in Yang Jian's body that was tumbling violently and suppressed forcibly.

It's like the black clouds that are constantly accumulating before the storm, and it's like the magma that is constantly tumbling in the volcano.

When it erupts, it will definitely shake the world!
"Second brother, are you alright?" Nezha asked foolishly, a little worried.

Li Anran guessed Yang Jian's thoughts.

After the incident of the Golden Winged Pengdeng, Yang Jian probably was completely disappointed with the Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor, but he didn't know what Yang Jian would do next!
The version he knows is that Yang Jian made use of the Sanshengmu incident to make himself the biggest evil in the world, and tried every means to attract all the hatred, so that Chen Xiang could unite with more people and more forces, and make the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother put in an unavailable situation.

Then, in front of the gods and Buddhas of the Three Realms, he used aloes to save his mother, in the name of the sage Nuwa, and with the will of the common people in the Three Realms, forcing the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother to accept the new Tiantiao written by himself.

Finally, use my own death to end all the hatred and all the evil, let Chen Xiang, the person who eliminates evil and saves the world, get all the good, and let all the living beings in the three realms return to good.

The plan was well thought out and implemented successfully.

In just a few years, Yang Jian has trained Chen Xiang, a nephew who does not seek to make progress and only wants to be a rich man, into a strong man with few rivals in the three worlds, and also becomes an apprentice who fights against Buddha. The Envoy of the Purification Altar, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, the Supreme Lord, the Third Prince Nezha and other great forces.

However, there are two opinions about the final result.

The first is that all of Yang Jian's schemes were exposed by chance and coincidence, and the truth came to light, and Chen Xiang San Sheng Mu forgave him.

The second is that Yang Jian's plan succeeded, ending all the evil with his own body, and giving Chen Xiang a golden body of merit.

The former seems to be perfect, but it wastes most of Yang Jian's hard work, and the authority of the new Tiantiao will inevitably be greatly reduced, and it is even more difficult to implement.

The latter sacrificed Yang Jian and made everyone happy, which was completely worthless in Li Anran's view.

No matter how perfect the rules and regulations are, the key depends on how they are implemented.

Without Yang Jian, how much can only a new rule of heaven be implemented?
How to ensure that it will not go astray?
It has been hundreds of years since Li Anran traveled back and forth, and the best friends are Yang Jian and Nezha. He doesn't want to see Yang Jian become the saint who took advantage of him.

As long as Yang Jian shows signs of going down that old road, he will turn Yang Jian back no matter what he says!
"What can I do?"

Yang Jian waved his hand and said with a smile: "For hundreds of years, I have basically handled all the affairs in the Three Realms by myself. Now it is the heavens that cannot do without me, not that I cannot do without the heavens."

"Just watch, the Jade Emperor will call me back in a short time. I just took advantage of this time to rest for a while and do some things that were inconvenient to do before."

To others, these words are very arrogant and conceited, but in Yang Jian's mouth, it seems to be stating a fact.

Li Anran and Nezha didn't have the slightest doubt either.

They have all seen with their own eyes how Yang Jian dealt with those piles of documents and files day and night.

Nothing big or small.

Just to save up for writing a new article for him.

This made many people criticize Yang Jian for being greedy for power, and he was unwilling to let anything out of his hands.

It also made Yang Jian the absolute core of the Heavenly Court of the Three Realms.

There is no Jade Emperor and Queen Mother in heaven, nothing.

But without Yang Jian, it would definitely be a mess.

"Ah."

Nezha nodded vigorously, then gritted his teeth and said, "Second brother, I'm staying in Guanjiangkou for a while, and I'm not going anywhere! I want to see if Li Jing can calm down those monsters!"

Li Anran: "..." Brother, your idea is very good, but I'm afraid you will be disappointed!

There are actually quite a few strong men that Heavenly Court can handle, but most of them have responsibilities and cannot be easily mobilized.

For example, Emperor Zhenwu has powerful mana and great supernatural powers, and under his command there are also generals such as the turtle and snake king, Lingguan, and hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals.

But he needs to watch the movement of Beiju Luzhou Demon Master's Mansion outside Beitianmen.

There are also the newly appointed Canopy Marshal and Shiwan Tianhe Marine Division. They need to guard the outside of the weak water, guarding against the demons and ghosts in the dark abyss, and they can't be mobilized either.

In the past, Nezha's actions would definitely cause a lot of trouble to the Heavenly Court, and might even force the Jade Emperor to bow his head and give in.

But now, the Heavenly Court ordered Bull Demon King and Hong Haier to be placed under Li Jing's command. The situation is completely different!

Most of the demons and ghosts in the mortal world will not be the opponents of the Bull Demon King and the Red Boy.

It doesn't make much sense for Nezha to do this.

However, Li Anran didn't pour cold water on Nezha at this time, and said to Yang Jian: "Second brother, I don't have anything to do recently. If you need our help, just say it."

Nezha nodded again and again in response: "Yes, second brother, tell us if you have anything! We brothers are of the same mind, so I don't believe there is anything we can't solve!"

"Then thank you two virtuous brothers."

With a smile on the corner of Yang Jian's mouth, he nodded in response, pondered for a while, and worked out a formula.

hum!
A ray of golden light swept out from Yang Jian's fingertips, forming a translucent golden light covering them.

But it isolated their surroundings into an independent small thousand world.

In this way, let alone eavesdropping, even the supernatural powers of Tiandi Baojian and the six-eared macaque cannot pass Yang Jian to find out what happened inside.

And these methods are at least only able to be used by Da Luo Jinxian!
"When I was in Cuiyun Mountain earlier, the second brother really kept his hand and didn't use all his strength." Li Anran thought to himself.

After Yang Jian isolated the inside and outside, he asked, "You two virtuous brothers, you should all know that the great powers of the three realms joined forces to deal with the catastrophe of the world. I just don't know, what do you think about this matter?"

Both Li Anran and Nezha were taken aback.

Seeing Yang Jian being so cautious, they thought Yang Jian needed their help with something important, but they didn't expect to ask such a question.

Nezha was straightforward, didn't think too much, snorted coldly, and said, "Is that how they responded? It's clear that the misfortune was diverted from the east, and the doom was passed on to the mortal world!"

"You rarely go down to earth, and you haven't seen the miserable situation before Nanzhan Buzhou! It can be said that there are natural and man-made disasters everywhere, wailing is everywhere, bones are everywhere, and there is no one in thousands of miles. I would rather survive the catastrophe with my real skills than now Taking other people's lives as stepping stones like this!"

After a pause, Nezha added sullenly again: "However, I heard from Junior Brother Jinxia that when Taishang Laojun went to see my master, he mentioned this matter and said that the effect was very good. Nanzhan Buzhou's calamity karma There is no one out of ten, and there is no climate."

Yang Jian was noncommittal, turned to look at Li Anran: "Brother Li Anran, what do you think?"

Li Anran pondered for a moment.

His earlier opinion was similar to Nezha's second half. Although the Three Realms Almighty's method was a bit ruthless, but the effect was excellent. Detonating the catastrophe in advance and keeping the catastrophe within a controllable range is indeed the best way to reduce the catastrophe from large to small .

However, at the Lingxiao Temple earlier, he clearly noticed that the mood swings of the gods and Buddhas were a little abnormal, but his mind changed.

"Drink poison to quench thirst." Li Anran gave his own conclusion.

Nezha was stunned for a moment, but Yang Jian's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Why drink poison to quench thirst?"

Li Anran glanced at Yang Jian in astonishment.

Did the second brother notice it too?

Li Anran said: "It seems to be dispelling the catastrophe, but in fact it just makes them hidden deeper and harder to detect. When the catastrophe breaks out again, the consequences will probably be much more serious than before."

Nezha was a little confused: "No... no way?"

"meeting."

Before Li Anran opened his mouth, Yang Jian had already given the answer. He said solemnly, "You two brothers, this world catastrophe is not about to come, but has already begun. They have already fallen into it, but they don't know it. Continue, It will only get deeper and deeper, and the consequences will be more serious."

Let alone Nezha, even Li Anran was stunned.

He only occasionally noticed a clue, but hearing Yang Jian's tone, he was clearly very sure!

"Everyone thinks that this catastrophe will inevitably happen to Xuanmen and Buddhism, or Tianting and Lingshan, but it is not!"

Yang Jian did not speak vaguely, but continued with the most straightforward words: "This catastrophe is different from previous catastrophes! It is no longer a battle between people, but a battle between people and the sky." The struggle is the struggle between humanity and heaven!"

"From the moment they joined forces, no, it should be said that from the moment they began to think about how to deal with the catastrophe, they have already fallen into doom, and began to fight for humanity and heaven!"

Yang Jian's words were like a thunderbolt hitting Li Anran and Nezha's heads, making them feel dizzy.

Yang Jian didn't rush to speak, but waited quietly for the two to digest the information.

The Way of Humanity, the Way of Heaven... Man vs. Heaven...

Li Anran's eyes widened, and he felt an electric current passing through his body, making him tremble all over.

Many things that I could not understand before, as if shrouded in mist, became clear in an instant.

He had a hunch that Yang Jian was right!

Nezha couldn't figure it out, and asked, "Second brother, we cultivators are cultivating the way of heaven and proving the way of Dao. Why do you say that they are fighting for the way of humanity and the way of heaven?"

Yang Jian explained: "We are cultivating the Way of Heaven and proving the Dao, but we are all cultivating the Dao of Heaven and proving the Dao with humanity. Words and languages, rules and order, martial arts, magical powers and spells have been passed down from the Three Realms... which one is not humane?" A product? We have been a part of humanity from the very beginning to the present, and we are explaining the way of heaven and the great way with humanity."

Nezha asked again, "Then why didn't it happen before?"

Yang Jian explained patiently: "Every catastrophe in the world is the most powerful force in the world. In the past, humanity was weak and not enough to compete with the law of heaven, but now the three worlds are prosperous, the human race is prosperous, and the three religions of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism are handed down from generation to generation. , all living beings are affected by it, and the power of humanity is already enough to compete with the way of heaven."

Pausing for a while, he said in an uncertain tone: "Maybe... the battle between humanity and heaven has already begun, since the beginning of Pangu, and the catastrophes we have experienced before may all be preparations for today." .”

Li Anran's heart was shocked, but he never thought of such a possibility.

Nezha's jaw dropped in shock, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Yang Jian said: "This is just my guess, and I'm not sure if it's true or not. However, there should be nothing wrong with the struggle between humanity and heaven."

"You two virtuous brothers, don't you think it's strange? In the past, when the catastrophe of heaven and earth came, only the sage could get a glimpse of it. lost his life."

"But this time, everyone knows that the catastrophe is approaching, and they can even work together to deal with the catastrophe. Apart from humanity, I really can't think of anything else that can do this."

Nezha thought for a moment, and realized that this was indeed the case!

From ancient times to the present, there has always been a catastrophe that is imminent without knowing it. It has never been like this. Before the catastrophe came, the monks of the Three Realms began to make preparations.

Of course, the word "not coming" needs a question mark!
The way of humanity will remind the common people that the way of heaven will also cover up the number of days, and it only depends on whose method is more clever!

Judging from the current situation, it seems that Tiandao has the upper hand.

The powers of the Three Realms realized that the catastrophe was approaching, and joined hands to plan to deal with it, but they misjudged the identities of the two parties in the catastrophe, and they fell into the catastrophe without knowing it.

Nezha couldn't help asking: "What will happen if the way of heaven wins?"

Yang Jian said: "If the way of heaven wins, all the order in the three realms will collapse. When the world returns to chaos, all living beings will be confused and even disappear. If the way of humanity wins..."

Yang Jian stopped, hesitant to speak.

Nezha asked: "Second brother, why don't you say anything? What will happen if humanity wins?"

Yang Jian said lightly: "The way of heaven retreats, the aura dissipates, immortals and Buddhas do not exist in the world, and all great powers disappear. The power of all living beings will become the most powerful force in the world."

"what?!"

Nezha was completely dumbfounded, and shouted: "Then what are we fighting for? Both left and right are just dead!"
