A master of supernatural powers who started from low martial arts

Chapter 183 Break the shackles and cleanse the world

"You two don't have to worry about me."

Pope St. Peter stared at the stone chamber in front of him and smiled calmly:
"I have been preparing for this for many years. Even if that divine being from China does not appear, I will eventually take this step."

"In fact, I should thank him. If it weren't for his appearance, I wouldn't be sure whether the cultivation realm of the ninth-level human god really exists. But now I can rest assured."

The worry in Haile Shengsi's eyes has not faded much:

"Your Majesty, religious history records that the ninth level has become a myth and legend, and the environment of heaven and earth no longer allows the existence of this level to appear."

"The previous three generations of popes have all used the baptism ceremony, but without exception, the soul and body collapsed. Please be careful."

In the practice system of the Holy See of Shinra, the so-called ninth level of practice is called God on Earth.

According to legend, practitioners at this stage can break the limit of lifespan, touch the truth of heaven and earth, and control wind, rain, thunder and lightning like gods. Their lifespan can even be longer than that of a country or a dynasty.

In the history of the Holy See, God's human incarnation was in this realm. He spread truth, goodness and beauty to the suffering world, and taught humans how to use fire, how to use tools, and even how to practice. After completing his deeds, he returned to the heaven, leaving only The next legend.

Hellescens was silent, then lowered his head:
"I understand. I will guard you outside this sanctuary until you are done."

Saint Peter nodded:
"Holy baptism can be as short as half a year or as long as one year. During this period, the Holy See will be handed over to you. During this period, Shinra's strategy is to be conservative. Try not to offend the Shenzhou Immortal. If I am unfortunate enough to be unable to walk out of the sanctuary , then the next pope will be selected from the two of you by a vote of twelve cardinals and archbishops.”

The Holy See has thousands of years of history. During this period, several generations of extremely talented popes have reached the eighth-level realm of human saints, and then they have diligently pursued the legendary ninth-level realm of human gods, and have also understood the next step of cultivation.

As for the new country, tens of millions of people in various provinces only know that after the mountains and rivers were reshaped and the new country was established, the world would take on a new look. All kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes that made people breathless were also abolished. The poor farmers were not only allocated fields, but also paid taxes on grain. The burden is also greatly reduced.

This method is the Holy See's top secret, the Holy Baptism Ceremony.

What’s more important is that the Tianshi Mansion was successfully established. Disciples such as Peng Yidao, Zhao Shuhua, and Lin Sheng personally selected thousands of talents from young people from civil and military academies in various provinces and private masters with innocent backgrounds. After a period of training, , and began to inspect various provinces.

However, although the idea is good, this method also hides a huge danger, that is, even if the power of believers' faith gathered and collected by the Holy See through special methods has been purified, it is not something that a mortal body can withstand.

These words seemed to be conveying their last words. The expressions of Abraham and Hailes changed and they both knelt down:

After that, he slowly turned around, and the door of the stone chamber opened. The holy light inside, which was filled with the prayers and repentance of countless believers, bloomed, completely swallowing up his figure.
No one knows what happened in the Holy See of Shinra.

Pope St. Peter's vicissitudes of eyes were strangely calm, and he said:
"hope so."

The billions of prayers and distracting thoughts contained in it are so huge and terrifying that even an eighth-level human saint who is suddenly exposed to it without preparation will have his soul washed away and become a chaotic and ignorant idiot.

Just like several popes who have tried, they all performed the baptism ceremony at their peak, and they were in the strongest state, both physically and mentally. As a result, they all suffered heavy losses under the baptism ceremony, some on the spot. Some of them died, and some had a complete mental breakdown under the impact of the terrifying power of faith and turned into a lunatic. Even the best ones suffered severe physical and mental injuries, and it took them several years of recuperation to recover.

At this moment, Shahe and Rizhao are also making intensive secret preparations.

As a result, they tried their best to start with weapon research and development, and the weapons research and development department started working with unprecedented efficiency, hoping to create weapons powerful enough to deal with immortals.

Pope St. Peter smiled:
"Although I am old, I am now at the peak. After many years of improvement and attempts on my part, the danger of the Holy Baptism Ceremony has been reduced to a minimum. As long as my will is firm enough, it is quite possible to withstand the impact of the power of faith and realize it. A complete transformation.”

Abraham frowned and said:
"Don't talk nonsense. His Majesty the Pope is the most powerful figure in the history of the Holy See. The failure of his predecessor will not happen to him."

"You are the most powerful being in the history of the Holy See. With the blessing of God, the mere baptism ceremony will not be a problem for you!"

After the founding of the new country, various forces were forced to withdraw, resulting in heavy losses for all parties within them, and they were extremely resentful towards the so-called Immortals of China.

"Your Majesty, please take back your words."

"Now I am at my peak. If I don't take this opportunity to take this step, as I get older and my vitality declines, my success rate in the future will be even lower, so I have to try it no matter what."

However, under the limitations of the environment of heaven and earth, the eighth level boundary is indestructible and cannot be broken through with conventional methods. However, more than a thousand years ago, an amazing and talented pope came up with the idea of ​​gathering the power of believers and then using this power to cleanse it. body and soul, thereby breaking through the boundaries of life and death and entering the realm of the legendary god on earth.

The inspection is naturally to clean up those who are corrupt and bend the law everywhere.

After all, although the new dynasty was established, the various corrupt officials, landlords and powerful landowners who took life lightly, and the situation in the fish and meat countryside have not been completely eliminated. There are not a few people who continue to serve in the local government despite their bad deeds.

In the past, it was very difficult to deal with these local snakes protected by officials. The patrolling officials were often ineffective and had nowhere to go. However, most of these immortal disciples from Tianshi Mansion are young people who are not cold-blooded and full of ambition. They don't care at all. Eleven, like a sharp knife, sweeps through various places. Wherever it passes, if people complain about their grievances, there will definitely be a huge bloody storm.

No matter what kind of high-ranking officials, warlords, or local gangsters they are, the disciples of the Tianshi Mansion will treat them all equally. Small crimes will be suspended and investigated, while major crimes will be dealt with more severely, ranging from confiscating their homes and being exiled to being executed in public for serious crimes.

No one dared to resist despite the golden sign of being a disciple of the Immortal Mansion of Tianshi Mansion and that they could be killed first and then reported later. Not to mention the powerful landlords, even the chief officials with military and political power in various places remained silent. There were not a few who took the initiative to plead guilty in order to seek a lighter punishment. .

This massive inspection lasted for nearly a year, and all thirty-six provinces in China were raided. Among them, 1,937 landlords and powerful people from all walks of life were executed, and 844 corrupt officials regardless of rank were executed. There are countless people who have been imprisoned.

After this inspection and sweep, the customs in China were completely cleared. Hundreds of millions of people all regarded the immortal disciples of Tianshi Mansion as their reborn parents. Even though the government had repeatedly issued orders not to build a temple for Lu Yuan privately, the people in slightly remote places were divided into The common people, who had obtained land, had their injustices cleared up, and whose life was getting better at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, spontaneously and secretly built a temple and statue for Lu Yuan, and worshiped day and night, and the government almost couldn't control it.

In this way, this once decayed and dark land glowed with unprecedented potential and vitality. Everyone was full of hope. People's livelihood, national strength, government and other aspects were rapidly restored and improved, and it was developing rapidly towards a prosperous age like fire cooking oil.

Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, it was a full year after the founding of the new country and development in full swing. On this day, it was in the palace city that had become the seat of the New Kingdom's parliament.

In the morning, a carriage drove up the dusty road and went straight into the parliamentary office area of ​​the imperial city.

There were guards everywhere in this area, making it difficult for other people to get close. However, after showing their tokens, the two carriages drove straight in, and soon came to a palace that was extremely quiet on the surface but was actually extremely well-defended.

It was the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests where Lu Yuan practiced in seclusion.

After the carriage stopped in front of the palace gate, Peng Yidao and Lin Sheng, whose appearance and demeanor had changed drastically, hurriedly got off the carriage and went straight to the square outside the palace. They immediately saw In the center is the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, which is surrounded by a fence, and there is also a thatched house in front of the fence.

The appearance of such a thatched house in front of the majestic palace was a bit unexpected and inconsistent, but Peng Yidao and Lin Sheng were not surprised and quickly stepped forward, lowering their voices excitedly:

"Junior Brother Chen!"

"We're back!"

The sound came out a moment later.

The door of the thatched house opened, and Chen Zhantang, dressed in civilian clothes, walked out, with a calm smile on his face that was unfazed by honor and disgrace:

"Two senior brothers, long time no see"

Seeing his temperament change drastically, becoming more elegant and even a little bit closer to Lu Yuan, Peng Yidao and Lin Sheng suddenly looked surprised:

"Junior Brother Chen, are you done?"

"Have you completed the Hundred Days Foundation Building!?"

Chen Zhantang was extremely calm and said with a smile:
"Half a month ago, I was lucky enough to complete this stage, so I didn't embarrass the Heavenly Master."

Peng Yidao and the two men suddenly became extremely envious, even ashamed of themselves:
"Sit in meditation and open up your Qi meridians. I've only made less than one-third of the progress in my hard training now. It's so irritating to me."

"Sure enough, among us, you are the only one who is most likely to win the favor of the Heavenly Master. I am afraid that we will be hopeless for the rest of our lives."

After Chen Zhantang obtained the Daoyin Technique, Lu Yuan treated them equally before going into seclusion. He also passed on the basic practice methods to the two of them and gave the same instructions.

They were naturally overjoyed, and spent almost all their time outside of the government affairs of the Tianshi Mansion on this cultivation technique. However, they deeply felt what it meant to be obscure and difficult, and progress was slow.

In a whole year, they had only completed less than one-third of the energy channels needed to build the foundation in a hundred days. Compared with Chen Zhantang, there was a huge difference between heaven and earth.

Chen Zhantang was not complacent at all, he shook his head and said:
"Two senior brothers, please don't say that. You two are not bad in talent. It's just because the Tianshi Mansion is busy with government affairs and traveling around to inspect the world that the progress is relatively slow."

"Furthermore, there is nothing to be proud of in completing a hundred days of foundation building within one year. Since this state is called a hundred days, it means that under normal circumstances it can be completed in a hundred days. It took me three times more. What does the time count?
According to Daoyin Shu, a hundred-day foundation building is just the foundation among foundations, which is equivalent to the standing stance in martial arts training. The real huge difficulty is the refining of the grain and essence. Qi has truly embarked on the path, and I don’t know if I can reach this step before my life expires.”

Having also studied the art of guidance and knowing that what Chen Zhantang said was true, Peng Yidao and Lin Sheng shook their heads and sighed:
"At least you still have hope of embarking on the road. The two of us are not so lucky because we have dull qualifications."

"The Heavenly Master has long warned that if you cannot complete the hundred-day foundation building within one year, continuing to practice the Guidance Technique will be a waste of time, so I plan to give up after completing the hundred-day foundation building."

Chen Zhantang now deeply understands the difficulty of practicing Daoyin Technique, nodded and said:
"This is also a wise move. Forget it, what is your situation outside now? It must be very difficult to clean up those moth cancers, right?"

Peng Yidao and Lin Sheng both smiled:
"Fortunately, the majesty of the Heavenly Master is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The Heavenly Master's Mansion has now recruited many masters. Martial arts masters and even masters such as Wu Taidou have taken up posts. Those corrupt officials, bullies and powerful men have no courage to resist."

"Junior brother Chen didn't know something. He wouldn't know if he didn't check. Once he checked, he was shocked. The situation in each province was simply shocking. In the past, it was not just the Jin people who were arrogant and domineering. There were also many Han people who helped the tyrants and abused the local area. If it hadn't been for this ruthless If a thorough cleaning really allows these bastards to hide away and even take control openly, then my sin will be huge!"

"In this year, we have killed thousands of people who were corrupt and violated the law. Almost more than a hundred people were executed in each province. We almost couldn't kill them. Fortunately, after this cleanup, the world was clear and the people could live. After a peaceful life, we plan to organize the Tianshi Mansion to inspect the world every five years from now on, so that those idiots who harm the country and the people have nowhere to hide! "

"it is good!"

Although Chen Zhantang chose another path, he couldn't help but high-five himself when he heard the outstanding achievements of Peng Yidao and Lin Sheng:

"Cleaning up the universe, the great achievements of these two senior brothers will be recorded in the annals of history!"

The two laughed and said:

"It's not just us, we just kill with a knife. Zhao Shuhua and the others are responsible for the investigation, trial and closing. They work much harder than us. Until now, they can't spare the time to come back."

"Calculating the time, the Heavenly Master should be released from seclusion in the next few days. We plan to wait here for him to come out of seclusion to do our best."

Until now, the three of them have not been formally accepted by Lu Yuan. Chen Zhantang also nodded and said:

"Okay, the two senior brothers will stay with me until the Heavenly Master comes."

Buzz.
At this moment, in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests standing behind the Temple of Heaven, a huge and dynamic wave suddenly emitted, which also made Chen Zhantang turn around suddenly, his eyes excited:
"The Heavenly Master is out of seclusion!"
