Longevity starts with inheriting a friend's legacy

The hall transformed by the temple master Xing Lin is very terrifying!
Around the central temple, the five emperors of Dayan Dao Sect had already used formations to completely seal off the space around the central temple.

It was originally intended to prevent the people from the Dark Temple from taking advantage of the chaos and using the space formation to escape from here.

But now, the big cauldron transformed by Xing Lin completely destroyed the surrounding forbidden formations, and all the disciples of the Dark Temple were directly sucked into it.

The space inside the tripod.

"Dear disciples of the temple, I know that I am no longer qualified to speak to you as the master of the temple."

"The battle that year caused Xing to suffer heavy damage, and the divine fire in his body is like a piece of cotton wool in the wind, and it could be extinguished at any time."

"Under this life-and-death torture, Xing was bewitched by the will of heaven and earth and committed the absurd act of betraying the temple."

"This time, Xing has no choice but to die to atone for his sins. I hope that I can resolve this crisis at the cost of my own life."

Xing Lin's voice echoed in the space inside the cauldron, and all the disciples of the Dark Temple were silent at this time.

Until now, many of them still cannot understand, or are unwilling to accept that the one who betrayed the temple would be the temple master.

For them, this blow was tantamount to the collapse of their faith.

After all, although the Dark Temple believes in gods, they have never seen gods.

On the contrary, many of the disciples of the Dark Temple had seen or heard of the deeds of the Palace Master Xing Lin.

However, it was this person who was regarded as their faith and spiritual pillar who eventually betrayed them.

Some people don't understand, but naturally there are people who can figure out why Xing Lin betrayed.

To put it simply, a strong person in the realm of spiritual enlightenment has ignited the divine fire in his body, using the divine fire to support his dharma body and slowly transforming into a divine body.

During this process, once the divine fire is severely damaged, it will breed a large number of evil thoughts similar to inner demons.

After all, the divine fire of the monks has a fatal attraction to countless resentments and some evil spirits.

In the past, when the divine fire was strong, these evil thoughts and evil spirits would be directly burned to ashes by the divine fire, and the energy contained in them would also be completely purified and turned into fuel for the divine fire.

But Xing Lin was injured, very seriously.

That injury damaged the foundation of his divine fire, and the flame was not strong enough.

Over the years, affected by resentment and evil spirits, his soul was lost.

In addition, the will of heaven and earth took advantage of the situation at this time, so it is understandable that one is bewitched.

However, Qi Shaoyu and others who are also in the spiritual realm understand that thoughts come from the heart.

Although Xing Lin was infected by evil thoughts due to his injury and bewitched by the will of heaven and earth and made the decision to betray the temple, the premise is that he must have had the idea of ​​surrendering to the enemy in his heart before.

Thoughts without roots will not arise.

If he didn't have this seed in his heart, no matter if it was the invasion of evil thoughts and evil spirits, or the bewitching of the will of heaven and earth, there would be no way for Xing Lin to make such a decision directly.

Since ancient times, many powerful people in the realm of gods have had their foundations of divine fire severely damaged, and many have gone astray.

But every monk who has gone astray ultimately takes the path that fulfills the deepest obsession in his heart.

Some people turned into executioners who only knew how to kill, some people lived a miserable life, hiding their identities, and eventually died in loneliness.

There are also some people who rely on their own strength to occupy a country and experience the pleasure of being an emperor.

In short, whether it is rights, freedom, killing, etc., they are all seeds deep in the monk’s heart.

Whether it is evil thoughts or evil spirits, they are like fertilizers. They will only make the seeds of obsession take root and sprout quickly, but will never create a seed of obsession out of thin air.

The seeds of Xing Lin's betrayal of the temple must have been planted a long time ago.

This thought may have just flashed through his mind and he let it go, but at least it proved that he had thought about it.

One thought, god or devil.

Once a thought arises, it is not so easy to completely erase it.

Xing Lin himself also knew about this.

In fact, with his strength, including the five elders of the temple, he still has hope of defeating the five emperors of Dayan Dao Sect and escaping from Tianhuang City.

But this battle will inevitably lead to the tragic deaths of more disciples of the temple, and even the death of the temple elders.

Although he himself has regained consciousness, he is still an unstable factor. Even if he survives, he will lose himself again sooner or later.

Xing Lin simply transformed himself into a divine cauldron, and using his own cultivation and everything he had, he activated the divine cauldron and took many disciples of the Dark Temple away from here.

This was done not only to atone for his sins, but also to live up to his identity as the master of the temple.

"Everyone, the Divine Cauldron can transcend space. As long as you think about it, Xing will control the Divine Cauldron to send you to where you want to go."

"Now, the temple is facing an unprecedented disaster. If you want to leave the temple, I can understand."

"But Xing begs you all, even if you have to leave the temple for the sake of survival, please try to remain neutral and don't choose to betray like Xing did."

Xing Lin's voice sounded again.

Obviously, he also knew that after this time, more temple forces would choose to leave the temple.

After all, Dayan Dao Sect has mobilized five emperors this time, and if they don't achieve some achievements, it would be a shame to dispatch the powerful people in the realm of gods.

The Temple will certainly suffer the most severe blow.

In the huge space of the divine cauldron, some people fell into deep thought after hearing Xing Lin's words.

Just as Xing Lin said, many of them had already thought about leaving the temple.

After all, for the vast majority of cultivators, they have no choice. They may be disciples of the temple from birth. Their families and sects are the power of the temple.

They only know that they are members of the Dark Temple because their parents and elders are members of the Dark Temple.

Many people don’t even understand why their elders and teachers insist on doing so.

He would rather hide from place to place and live a dark life than give up his status as a member of the temple.

In their view, what is the purpose of cultivation?
Isn't it just that you can pursue the pinnacle of martial arts freely and unrestrainedly or live a happy and carefree life based on your hard-earned cultivation?
When you have the opportunity to live in the sunshine, why do you choose a more difficult path?

For example, the top forces in the temple, relying on their strength, if they can develop well, they definitely have the possibility of being no weaker than the three immortal kingdoms.

Even taking into account the years of suppression, they may have reached the point of being divided into two schools and factions.

With such strength of the two sects, they are overlords in the entire Tianxuan Realm.

"grandfather……"

"Master..."

"father……"

Some disciples of the Dark Temple reacted and couldn't help but start persuading their elders and teachers.

They were really tired of that kind of life of hiding from place to place and living like rats.

They also want to discuss Taoism with the geniuses of other sects, interact with the saints and saintesses of other forces, and experience the charm of the Tianxuan Realm.

I don't want to hide in the stronghold for the rest of my life. I have to be very careful when I go out and I dare not show my true face to anyone.

At this time, some of the older generations of the temple forces seemed to have come to their senses.

They looked around.

Back when the temple was at its peak, billions of cultivators in the entire Tianxuan Realm were disciples of the Dark Temple.

What now?
Many of the thousands of temple forces have been completely wiped out.

Countless disciples have also lost their lives in bounty hunts over the years.

Because of the bounty offered by Dayan Dao Sect, people from other sects did not treat the temple disciples as human beings after capturing them, and tortured and humiliated them at will.

"My fellow Taoists, my Wushan Sect...gives up."

In the silent space of the cauldron, an old man with white hair and beard spoke slowly.

Next to him stood a petite girl with several scary scars on her face.

The girl looked at the old man: "Grandpa..."

The old man shook his head at her, bowed to the people around him, and said with a bitter face: "Everyone, my Wushan Sect now only has more than ten disciples left."

"Back then, the Wushan Sect also had millions of disciples..."

The old man didn't continue speaking, but everyone knew the pain in his heart.

In the divine cauldron space, Xing Lin's voice did not sound, but a mysterious wave slowly emerged and sent the old man and his granddaughter out.

"The Qinghe Sect has also given up. Fellow Taoists, I'm sorry."

With the Wushan Sect taking the lead, many forces that had suffered heavy losses in recent years soon abandoned the temple.

There are fewer and fewer people in the divine tripod.

In the end, less than half of them chose to stay.

"Seventh Brother, my soul can't hold on any longer. The future of the temple depends on you." "My dear brothers, Xing Lin is sorry for you."

After sending away most of the temple disciples, Xing Lin's weak voice sounded again.

"Ugh!"

Zhong Lihui sighed deeply.

"The Palace Master has carried out a drastic reform of the Temple this time."

"Although this move caused great damage to the Temple's power, those who stayed are all absolutely trustworthy people."

"Everyone."

Zhong Lihui looked at the many sects that still chose to stay in the Divine Cauldron space and said, "As an elder of the Divine Temple, I would like to ask... to ask the Palace Master to make Fang Xu of Xuanmen the new Son of God of the Dark Temple. Do you have any opinions?"

Li Fangxu is the Son of God?

Although everyone was a little surprised, they thought that if the selection of the Son of God continued, Fang Xu's position as the Son of God would be a foregone conclusion.

Nowadays, Palace Master Xing Lin has passed away.

The Dark Temple cannot be without a master for a day, and urgently needs someone to shoulder this heavy responsibility.

Although they were not very familiar with Fang Xu, they had heard about some things about Fang Xu.

Coupled with Fang Xu's performance in the selection of the Son of God, some people feel that the Dark Temple today may really need such an unconventional leader.

The more important point is that everyone is clear about it.

Among the temple elders, the seventh elder Qi Shaoyu supports Fang Xu.

Because she is Fang Xu's master.

Now, the second elder Zhong Lihui also proposed that Fang Xu become the Son of God, which means that he also supports Fang Xu.

The other three temple elders have never had much opinion. Since Qi Shaoyu and Zhong Lihui agreed, they certainly wouldn't have any objections.

"agree."

"The Three Corpses Sect also agrees!"

"The Qihuang Sect also agrees!"

……

After a brief hesitation, all the forces present recognized Fang Xu's position as the Son of God.

At this time, Xing Lin in the divine tripod was silent.

"Palace Master?"

Zhong Lihui called out out of common sense.

"The last wisp of the Palace Master's soul has completely perished." At this time, Fang Xu suddenly spoke.

The power of the Xuanshui Soul allowed him to keenly sense inside the divine cauldron that the last trace of Xing Lin's soul had just disappeared.

After these words were spoken, all the older generation monks in Ding were sad.

As the current master of the Dark Temple, Xing Lin did not do much and even caused the temple to suffer several heavy blows.

But after all, they had fought side by side with Xing Lin for nearly a thousand years.

Over the past thousands of years, a deep friendship has been established between the two sides.

Now that Xing Lin has completely fallen, everyone can't help feeling sad.

As Xing Lin's soul dissipated, the space of the divine tripod gradually became unstable.

Everyone knew that they had to leave quickly.

Otherwise, once the divine tripod is broken, they will all be caught in the turbulence of space.

"Son of God, now that the Palace Master is gone, you should give the orders."

Zhong Lihui looked at Fang Xu and asked, "Where are we going next?"

Just now, Xing Lin said that he hoped those sects that had left the Dark Temple would try to remain neutral and not choose to betray.

But no one can guarantee that any of those people would choose to betray their masters for fame and gain benefits from Dayan Dao Sect by selling out other forces in the temple.

Therefore, it is no longer possible to return to the strongholds of many sects.

"Seventh Elder." Fang Xu pondered for a moment and looked at Qi Shaoyu.

Qi Shaoyu shook his head.

He knew what Fang Xu wanted to ask.

"Under the fairy island is an ancient mythical beast, Ba Xia."

"I only have a way to wake it up, but I don't know where it took the fairy island."

Hearing this, Fang Xu was a little disappointed.

In fact, Xiandao is a very good place.

The space on the island is large enough to accommodate the disciples of the temple today.

But if even Qi Shaoyu can't find where the fairy island is now, it is estimated that no one in the entire Tianxuan Realm will be able to find it.

Now, apart from the fairy island, where else can I take them?

"Fang Xu, how about... let's go back to Yu State."

At this time, Kong Jie suddenly spoke.

"Yu Guo?"

Some of the older generations of the temple forces were stunned for a moment.

"It's Sanshan Island." Fang Xu explained.

Sanshan Island is indeed a good choice.

The land there is barren, and apart from the Ascension Society, no other forces have established their own sects there.

These forces in the Central Continent would never have thought that the people from the Dark Temple would hide in that remote place.

The most important thing is that there are the remains of Yanshen in that place, and Yanshen’s past body still lives there.

From Fang Xu's current perspective, the strength of Yanshen's body that rushed over must be above the Tongshen realm.

"What do the elders think?" Fang Xu did not make a final decision, but instead sought the opinions of several temple elders.

He was appointed to the position in a time of crisis and lacks prestige, so it would be better for him not to be too autocratic.

Several temple elders looked at each other, and Zhong Lihui said, "Sanshan Island is indeed a good hiding place."

“But there is one problem that needs to be solved.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the many temple disciples in front of him and said worriedly: "The temple needs to survive and develop. There are not many usable resources in Sanshan Island. What should we do about the cultivation problems of the younger generations?"

"Don't worry too much about resources. I have a solution."

At this time, an old woman wearing gorgeous clothes and leaning on a cane slowly said, "Hongyan Chamber of Commerce can solve this problem for us."

Hongyan Chamber of Commerce! ?
Everyone was stunned.

That is the second largest Chamber of Commerce in Tianxuan Realm, and its strength may not be as good as the Three Immortals.

It can even barely be ranked in the second tier.

But in terms of financial resources, none of the three immortal kingdoms is as good as it.

"Can Granny Zuo Jiang get in touch with the Hongyan Chamber of Commerce?" Qi Shaoyu looked at the old woman in surprise.

The old woman smiled awkwardly: "It's not a connection, because the Zuo family is behind the Hongyan Chamber of Commerce."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.

"I understand. The Hongyan Chamber of Commerce started in the Republic of Qi."

"The Zuo family was once the number one family in the Republic of China..."

Zuo Jiang smiled and nodded: "If the Son of God decides, I will arrange for the Hongyan Chamber of Commerce to go to Sanshan Island regularly to purchase some things and bring a large amount of resources along the way."

Fang Xu nodded.

Now that the issue of cultivation resources has been resolved, Sanshan Island seems to be their best place to go.

"Then let's go to Sanshan Island?" Fang Xu looked at everyone and spoke.

Everyone nodded resolutely.

Afterwards, Qi Shaoyu and the others joined forces to forcibly manipulate the Divine Cauldron to unleash its final power, sending them to Sanshan Island. (End of this chapter)
