Chapter 322 The Story of a Girl and a Monster
"My Dharmakaya is the product of the combined efforts of all my followers. You should know something about my background, fellow Taoists."

The White Lotus Mother said this calmly, and she did not shy away from talking about her own background.

Fang Xun was suddenly surprised. He probably understood that every member of the Tianli sect had a trace of true qi containing the other party's thoughts implanted in their bodies by the White Lotus Mother.

Countless Tianli believers contributed their own strength, and together they built a tower, not only supporting a domain of law, but also condensing a Dharma body for it.

After a moment of silence, Fang Xun spoke again: "Is it really okay for you to say this to me, a person who is destined to become your enemy?"

"These things are not difficult to find out. It doesn't matter whether I tell you or not."

The White Lotus Mother was nonchalant about this: "At least, our current target is the same, which is Wan Ziqi. I only want the Human Emperor inheritance in the Human Emperor Sword. As for the Human Emperor Sword, if you want it, it depends on your own ability."

Fang Xun's heart moved, he heard something from the other party's words, and asked three questions in a row.

"Are you here waiting for someone? Are you looking for help to deal with the Human Emperor Sword in Wan Ziqi's hand? Are you from Black Water Abyss?"

“Yes, the target of Black Water Abyss, the Sha Mountain among the Nine Mountains, is also the Human Emperor Sword, but they are not insisting on getting it, they just want to prevent the royal family from getting the sword.

If the Human Emperor Sword was in the capital, combined with the Nine Dragons and Eight Wastelands Formation, Shangguan Wudi would probably turn around and leave without any regrets after seeing it. "

"It seems that the relationship between you and Heishuiyuan is also very complicated." Fang Xun glanced sideways when he heard this, as if thinking about something.

"It's just mutual use. They want to rely on me to draw out the Human Emperor Sword, and I also need them. Once my strength exceeds a certain limit, the group of people in Black Water Abyss will also want to kill me!"

Fang Xun also smiled when he heard this. The White Lotus Mother's strength was growing at a snowball-like speed. The more believers she had, the stronger she would become, as if there was no bottleneck.

Anyone who sees it will feel uneasy, and the same goes for Heishuiyuan.

"It's a pity that your thoughts are too extreme. You are destined to be the enemy of everyone in the world. Otherwise, it would be a pleasure to sit down and discuss philosophy with you."

The White Lotus Mother did not mind hearing this, she just smiled and said: "Daoyou, the person I am waiting for has not arrived yet, why don't you listen to a story from me first?"

Fang Xun also smiled: "I am certainly interested in listening to your story, fellow Taoist."

A trace of reminiscence flashed across the eyes of the White Lotus Mother, and her tone was also vague.

"Once upon a time there was a Tianli Temple, a small and unknown sect in the martial arts world. There were more than a dozen nuns and a young girl living in the temple.

The girl was born with natural beauty, but she had no parents and was adopted by nuns. She was extremely intelligent and had extraordinary talent. She easily achieved enlightenment by relying on her simple acquired martial arts.

However, this also attracted many covetous eyes to Tianli Temple. Some coveted the girl herself, and some mistakenly believed that Tianli Temple had hidden magical powers and secret treasures.
Many wolves, tigers and leopards rushed over, Tenri-an was destroyed, and only the girl escaped.

Hearing this, Fang Xun sighed and said, "The girl in the story is you, right?"

A trace of confusion flashed across the eyes of the White Lotus Mother. She did not respond to him, but continued to tell the story of the girl.

“The girl had extraordinary talent. After escaping and ascending to heaven, she practiced martial arts diligently. She easily broke through the divine will and killed all the enemies who had participated in the destruction of Tianli Temple one by one.

But after taking revenge, the girl felt empty in her heart. She was still very naive at that time and couldn't understand why the nuns in Tenri Temple were all kind-hearted and she was also kind-hearted and enjoyed helping others.

But among her enemies, there are also people she has helped before."

Fang Xun commented on this: "A child holding gold walks through a busy street and gives alms to a beggar, but what he gets is not necessarily gratitude from the beggar, but covetousness."

The White Lotus Mother sighed and continued, “The girl soon understood this truth, but she was still naive and kept wondering why there was so much pain and hatred in the world.

She thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out. However, she made a great wish to build a harmonious and happy world where the old have someone to rely on, the young have someone to take care of, and there is no hatred or disputes! "

This time Fang Xun also remained silent. Isn't this the same as great wisdom? Ideals are beautiful, but reality is extreme.

In the direction of Linjiang City, strange phenomena were still appearing in the sky. Wu Haoran and his four companions were fighting fiercely with the Dharma body of the White Lotus Mother.

However, on the distant horizon, a black line appeared in the white snow and caught Fang Xun's eyes.

That was the army retreating from the camp more than 20 miles ahead, but Fang Xun and the White Lotus Mother ignored them, and the girl's story continued.

“After the girl made her aspiration, she founded Tenrikyo with a group of like-minded friends.

The law of nature is clear, it worries about the common people, it has pity on us human beings, and the white lotus is in bliss.

This was the original slogan of the Tianli Sect, but the people in the world were foolish and only cared about their own interests. The development and growth of the Tianli Sect inevitably touched the interests of the aristocratic families, sects and the imperial court.

The girl and her friends, who were suppressed and hunted by many parties, unknowingly became a group of traitors.

It is not easy to change the world, but the girl remained indomitable despite repeated failures, and even ranked among the top of the Heavenly Ranking.

But her friends died or betrayed her one after another!"

Fang Xun shook his head when he heard this. Not everyone can stick to their original intention in such matters.

Although he was extremely powerful, he had to hide everywhere because he was determined to rebel, and he was as worried as a rat that could not stand the light.

Not everyone wants to live this kind of life, so it is understandable that the like-minded friends of the White Lotus Mother betrayed or gave up on her.

"Gradually, after who knows how long, the girl has become a peerless expert ranked third on the Heavenly Ranking. But when she looks back, she finds that there is no one around her anymore.

The gentry, wealthy families, and high-ranking officials hated her to the core, the common people also resisted her, and even the countless people she had helped did not understand her and thought she was a lunatic.

The girl found that there was no one left who she could trust with all her heart.

"So, Tianli Sect has become what it is now, with everyone being brainwashed by you and fanatically believing in you?"

The White Lotus Mother also looked melancholy.

"Since then, the girl understood a truth: if you want to save the world, you must first destroy it. Since the old world is already filthy and beyond redemption, then destroy this world and build a new one!"

As the retreating army in the distance got closer and closer to the two, the story of the White Lotus Mother came to an end.

Fang Xun was silent for a while before he said, "You told a story, why not listen to me tell one too."

The White Lotus Mother also became interested when she heard this: "Is this your story?"

Fang Xun said calmly: "It's me, but it's not me. You have been wondering what I can rely on to threaten you.

Actually, I am not alone.”

When he spoke the last few words, Fang Xun's voice suddenly became an accent, and the voices of countless people, male, female, old and young, overlapped together.

The White Lotus Mother's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she had another sudden impulse. Her expression immediately became solemn, and she listened carefully to Fang Xun's story.

"A long time ago, there was a monster without a story. He didn't have his own story, so he envied others because they all had their own stories. So the monster without a story wanted to eat other people's stories and turn them into his own story.

He ate and ate and ate.

Although he ate many stories, he was still distressed, because the monster without stories found that those were not his stories, and he still had no story of his own.

boom--

Suddenly, a deafening roar interrupted Fang Xun's words.

Not only him and the White Lotus Mother, but also the army in the distance that had retreated more than 20 miles to here, were looking towards the camp.

Then two beams of light, one black and one gold, shot up into the sky and collided violently.

"It's a military camp!"

"Not good! There are other experts who have come to find Emperor Ziqi!"

In an instant, the crowd exploded, and a hint of regret flashed in the eyes of the White Lotus Mother.

"Unfortunately, your story hasn't been finished yet, but the person I'm waiting for has already arrived."

Fang Xun said calmly: "I wish you a successful start. I will continue to tell you this story next time we meet."

"It's been a long time since I had such a pleasant chat with someone. Unfortunately, we are destined to be enemies. It would have been great if I had met someone like you earlier."

There was an even stronger look of regret in the eyes of the White Lotus Mother. As she spoke, her figure disappeared from the spot, as if she had never been there.

Above Linjiang City, Wu Haoran and three others who were fighting with the Dharmakāya of the White Lotus Mother suddenly felt a change in expression. They also felt the changes happening in the distance.

In the void, the golden ripples emitted by the Human Emperor Sword retreated like a tide, and circles of pure and holy lotus emitted by the White Lotus Dharmakaya filled the void again.

The four of them immediately felt a pressure coming upon them, restraining their own strength and preventing them from exerting their full potential.

The vital energy of heaven and earth around my body seemed to become sticky, making it even more difficult to mobilize it.

Realizing that something was wrong, the four of them began to think about retreating.

There was a loud bang, causing the air waves to roll back and the wind and clouds to disperse.

After a collision, the four of them used the force to fly back, and under the cracked body of the White Lotus Mother, the lotus platform also had some cracks.

Countless believers below shouted fanatically, and a white line extended from their heads to connect with the white lotus.

The white lotus absorbed bits and pieces of strength, slowly repairing the surface cracks.

The White Lotus Mother did not take the initiative to pursue the four retreating people. For a moment, the two sides were facing each other from a distance again.

They saw that the clothes of Wu Haoran and the other three were torn to varying degrees, but their energy was still strong.

Wu Haoran looked solemnly at the collision of the golden and black light columns behind him and spoke word by word.

“I never thought that there would be someone who would dare to come to help you, a witch!

Emperor Ziqi has the help of the Emperor Sword, and he was forced to withdraw his strength and give up assisting us. He must not be an unknown person. Who is your ally?"

The other three people also looked extremely ugly, without the Human Emperor Sword to counter the spread of the White Lotus's clear light.

Wu Haoran, who was holding the divine weapon Tianxin Ruler, was not affected, but the three of them had to devote some of their energy to resisting the erosion of the White Lotus Domain, and their strength was greatly reduced.

Looking at the four people with ugly expressions, Holy Mother White Lotus just said lightly.

"We can't say we are allies, we are just using each other. Who made the imperial court so bold as to allow Wan Ziqi to bring the Human Emperor Sword enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple to Jiangnan?

You are not the only ones who have the magical weapons. The Shashan, one of the nine mountains in the Black Water Abyss, is the king of the Miao region - Xingshanlie!"

"It is the Earth Demon Axe, the weapon used by our Miao ancestor Xingshan during the Human Emperor era!"

Wu Haoran's expression changed drastically again.

"Oh no! Emperor Ziqi is in danger. Return quickly!"

In an instant, Wu Haoran and the other three understood the seriousness of the matter.

Not to mention that the Human Emperor Sword in the rear was being restrained, so they couldn't kill the White Lotus Mother.

Even if this mission is successful, the Human Emperor Sword will probably be in danger.

Without caring about anything else, the four of them rushed towards the camp at full speed.

"You come when you want, and leave when you want. Do you think I have such a good temper?"

The White Lotus Mother's face showed neither joy nor sadness, and her hands were sealed in a magic seal.

In an instant, white lotuses appeared in the void, and with a bang, they exploded and transformed into giant lotuses that pressed towards the four people.

"Witch!"

Feeling threatened, Wu Haoran and the other three were furious, but they had to turn around and fight the other party.

boom--

The two sides collided again, but separated immediately. Wu Haoran and his four companions did not want to get entangled, so after exchanging a move, they used the force to break through the air and left.

The White Lotus Mother sat on the lotus platform and also followed Pokong.

A group of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom believers in the city behind also shouted slogans fanatically, rushed out of the city gate and chased after the figure of the White Lotus Mother.

Boom——Boom——Boom——

In the void, five people from both sides were seen fighting intermittently, but the ground exploded wherever they passed.

Wu Haoran and the other three were anxious, but they had to deal with the pursuit of the White Lotus Mother.

The speed also slowed down. It would probably take some time to return to help Wan Ziqi.
