Chapter 598: After

Zhiwu disappeared and no one knew where he went.

Among those who disappeared together, he was the one who attracted the most attention, so the discussion about him lasted for a long time.

The majestic and precious land, the holy books and wise words, if I set them on fire, they will become scorched earth.

Since him, there has been no more saintly teaching.

Some people said that he destroyed the ancestral temples of the three religions and was suppressed by the returning saint using extremely secret means.

Some people also said that he was not dead. Like Guiguzi, he had completed his mission and had retired from the world to concentrate on practicing Buddhism.

Others say that he became a Buddha and went to the past, to that wonderful mythological world.

The era of the three religions ended. The King of Shang led his troops eastward. Gongshu's Iron Pagoda shined brightly and never lost a single battle in large-scale military battles. The "Yama Army" led by Qu Xiangyao was a sharp knife that specialized in killing masters above the Mountain Mountain Realm.

The Shang Kingdom was unstoppable and won the national war and unified the world.

The King of Shang held a Fengshan ceremony at Yuben Mountain, conferring the title of Lord of Yuben Mountain and naming the Prime Minister of Shang, Chu Junhui, as the only respected one in the world. All religious sects that did not respect him as their ancestor were labeled as heretics and punished by the whole world.

It is because of this decree that the six-armed golden statue of the Demon Lord has become a must-have item in every ancestral hall.

You don’t have to install the door, the Demon Lord’s golden body must be placed there first.

His name is even more famous than Guiguzi.

Confucianism and Taoism disappeared, and Buddhism retreated into seclusion. From then on, unified dynasties became the mainstream of historical development.

The national destiny and the military destiny have become one. The Peak Realm is no longer an extraordinary saint who can do whatever they want. The secular dynasties have their own ways to deal with them.

There is no longer any such thing as divine right of kings. The reason a king is king is because... he is strong enough, stronger than a mountain.

The appearance and disappearance of Zhiwu became a turning point of an era. With the promotion of Buddhism and Shang State, the way of controlling the devil that he laid out became the orthodox way of advancement in the world.

His deeds of passing on his martial arts through his clones were also exposed, so in the unofficial history compiled by novelists, the subsequent rise of martial arts in the world was related to him.

……

Apart from all this fame and fortune, some people also care about Zhiwu's true ending.

A man begged bitterly in front of the Buddha.

"I want a lotus to save someone."

Kowtow three thousand times before the Buddha, with piety in the eyes and reciting in the heart.

The Buddha eventually gave her a seventeen-step lotus, allowing her to leave the temple with the hope of coming back to life.

……

"Junior sister, he is really not dead." Bodhisattva Jingshi could hardly remember how many times he had given the same answer.

The medicine master traveled all over the world with a lotus she had obtained from her master. She even dug out an old ghost buried underground, but she still couldn't find the person she was really looking for.

Even though she was told that the man was not dead, but had just left this world, she still refused to believe it.

She doesn't believe in Buddha, Bodhisattva, or anyone else.

But she just kept asking over and over again, not knowing who she was asking or what answer she was getting.

The Pure World Bodhisattva sighed softly and took the Medicine Master to find his master.

"You said you would bring her to you when she came to see me for the eighty-first time."

The Paradise is gone, and Lingshan is gone. The Buddha can now only temporarily settle down in this small temple in the wilderness and become a lonely temple keeper.

He didn't look at the pharmacist, but was busy sweeping the fallen leaves around his feet.

"Still want to find him?"

The pharmacist nodded dumbly.

"But the person you find may not be him. Are you still willing to go?"

"go with!"

"Fool..."

A pure white lotus suddenly appeared in front of the pharmacist.

"The Eighteen-Step Lotus is not for human consumption, so you don't have to bring it to him."

“After achieving complete tranquility, abandon the physical body, and it will lead you to the path of reincarnation.”

"Perhaps a thousand years later, we will meet again by chance."

"Thank you, Master, for your help!"

It was the first time she smiled since he left, even if it was just a slight smile. "Wait." Pure World Bodhisattva stopped Medicine Master who was about to leave.

He bowed down to the Buddha.

"Please Master, help me avoid that disaster."

The Buddha shook his head and said, "That is her calamity, and also her fate. It cannot be stopped."

"Let's go."

The Pure World Bodhisattva wanted to say something, but he took a step forward and appeared outside the mountain.

……

"Master, are we really leaving?"

"Walk."

"But Zhiwu has already left, and the Buddhist Peak Realm has also lost the Wuzu Temple. We may not be without a chance now!"

"I said... go."

"Master, what did you see on the path of reincarnation?"

……

"Master, your body..."

"No problem. Let's get ready. We have to leave too."

"You're not going to fight anymore?"

"Of course we have to fight. A gentleman's revenge is never too late, even ten years or a thousand years."

"But didn't you say before..."

“A scholar aspires to be a virtuous person, a virtuous person aspires to be a saint, and a saint aspires to be a god… In the past, sainthood was not the end point, so how could the vision of the past that was only at the saintly level be carried forward into the future?”

……

Yanshan Sanren walked out of the paradise with the determination to die... He had no choice but to leave, because Shang State had won the battle, and the team of Qi buddies left for him by the Dageshi had all run away. If he didn't run, he would have to wait to be liquidated.

Whether it was due to his good fortune or fate, he did not die after leaving the paradise, and he even felt a faint spiritual energy.

He looked in the direction where the spiritual energy came from, and three miles away... stood a mountain ten thousand feet high.

The spiritual energy came from the top of the mountain.

Except for the area near that mountain, there is no other place with spiritual energy. If you go there, you will get lost. Yanshan Sanren has no choice but to choose to settle down in this mountain.

"The connection is quite good." Yanshan Sanren said self-deprecatingly.

It seems that he has been released from prison, but in fact he is still trapped in his own territory. The only difference is...

“This mountain has a nice view.”

Yanshan Sanren cut down trees and built himself a wooden house.

Since then, there has been a mountain keeper in Yuben Mountain. He is hiding a secret that no one knows and looks up to the top of the mountain every day.

The extent of the change in spiritual energy told him that the bud would eventually break through the ground.

……

Boiling tea and placing bamboo on the table, the two of them played chess by the river.

"So what did they see on the path of reincarnation?" asked the chess master curiously.

"do not know."

"Then how can you be sure that they will give up developing in this world after they come back and see that the ancestral temple is gone?"

Zhou Tianyi scratched his head. He felt that the chess master might think too highly of himself.

"I'm not sure either. Didn't the Buddha stay here?"

If he really wants to understand, he can force himself to understand.

Buddha won and wanted to enjoy the fruits of victory in this world. Confucianism and Taoism lost, but they did not feel that they had lost.

If you go to Guyuan Continent to cultivate immortality, as long as you succeed, your life span will be multiplied several times. When you have boiled the Buddha into relics, you can come back and strike back, then you will basically be invincible.

"Play for a moment, play for a lifetime, this is the game of chess."

"I just wonder how many old opponents we will still see on this chessboard thousands of years later..."
