Chapter 24: The Method of Substituting the Tribulation
“Congratulations, Master, for gaining another disciple!”
After Ao Bing completed his apprenticeship, the other Jie Jiao disciples saw this and stood up to congratulate the leader of Tongtian Cult.
Immediately, they wanted to pay tribute to Ao Bing again.
At this time, the leader of Tongtian suddenly said: "You wait for me, fellow apprentices, and come to see me later. For now, preaching is more important!"
After saying that, he waved everyone to sit down and continued to preach.
Normally speaking, every sermon given by Master Tongtian will only last for a hundred years. But this time, he talked for a hundred and fifty years before ending.
The extra fifty years are a favor given by Tongtian Cult Leader to the cultivators on behalf of Ao Bing. In this way, instead of being able to remember being interrupted by him during the sermon, the practitioners would be able to remember his kindness.
If it hadn’t been for Ao Bing, how could the practitioners have listened to the Tao for fifty more years?
After the sermon ended, Jiejiao’s disciples and the practitioners who came to listen to the sermon left one after another. Soon, only the Tongtian Cult Leader and a group of Jie Cult disciples were left in the Immortal Palace.
"Congratulations, junior brother!"
Without any interruption from outsiders, Jie Jiao disciples began to greet Ao Bing one by one and inform each other of their names.
When you join Jiejiao, everyone is one of the same people. Not only do you have to be close to each other, but you must at least know each other. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing to not be able to call each other out by name when we meet in the future.
There are only four true disciples. Not only their cultivation is advanced, but their qualifications are also astonishing. Before Master Tongtian became a saint, he was already with him, and they were all old antiques.
They say they are of the same generation as the other Jie Jiao disciples, but in fact they are not from the same era. It can even be said that many Jie Jiao disciples were taught by their acting teachers.
Who among the Jiejiao would be disrespectful to see them?
Ao Bing was only a young man, so he dared not lose etiquette in front of them, so he took the initiative to greet the four of them with an extremely respectful attitude.
After that, there are the outer disciples such as Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao, Shitianjun, Shiji, Luo Xuan and so on.
They have the same identity as Ao Bing, but they are older than Ao Bing. Although Ao Bing was polite to them, he did not put himself too low and treated them as equals.
However, there are indeed many outer disciples of Jiejiao, there are three to five hundred of them. If Ao Bing had not cultivated himself, he would not be able to remember the names of so many people.
It took half a day for Ao Bing to meet everyone one by one. At this time, he also roughly figured out the situation of Jie Jiao's outer sect.
The outer sect of Jie Jiao is headed by Zhao Gongming. He is the senior brother of the outer sect, his status is second only to the true disciples, and his strength has reached the realm of Da Luo Jinxian, surpassing the entire outer sect.
After Zhao Gongming, there was Empress Sanxiao.
They are Zhao Gongming's younger sisters. Among them, the eldest sister Yunxiao's strength is unfathomable. She may not be weaker than Zhao Gongming, and she is well respected by all the outer disciples.
The second sister Qiongxiao and the third sister Bixiao are slightly inferior in strength, but they are both in the realm of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Then came the accompanying Seven Immortals, the Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island, the Four Saints of Kowloon Island, and others. They were called Taiyi Golden Immortals and had great fame in the outer sect.
Finally, there are outer disciples like Shiji Luo Xuan and Lu Yue who are practicing alone.
Among them, the one with the lowest strength is also the Golden Immortal, and there are also many who have reached the Taiyi realm. But because there is no group, the reputation in the outer sect is not very great.
The strength of Jie Jiao's disciples is probably like this. The four true traditions are all cultivated by Daluo Jinxian. Among the hundreds of disciples in the outer sect, the top few are also Daluo Jinxian.
The rest are either Taiyi Jinxian or Jinxian, there is no lower one. Fortunately, Ao Bing now has the cultivation level of a Golden Immortal. Otherwise, after he gets started, he will undoubtedly lower the level of Jie Jiao's outer sect.
"Renlong, how did you get into a grudge with Master Taiyi?"
There were no outsiders here, and the leader of Tongtian was not polite. After Ao Bing and the other senior brothers had finished announcing each other's names, he asked directly.
"So that the master can know that this disciple is the third prince of the Dragon Palace. There was nothing going on in the Dragon Palace that day. Suddenly he felt a shaking in the Dragon Palace..."
Ao Bing did not add any exaggeration and told the truth. The process of his enmity with Master Taiyi was told.
When he said that he was skinned and cramped by Nezha and almost wanted to die, all the Jiejiao disciples present were extremely angry.
When he talked about his father, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, he went to heaven to complain, but he was ambushed by Nezha and beaten violently.
All the Jiejiao disciples became even more angry, and some even shouted loudly: "Nezha deserves to die! I really wish I could kill him!"
And when Ao Bing talked about how he took revenge When Nezha came, all the Jiejie disciples couldn't help but smile on their faces, and they all praised him for his good work, saying that this is what monks should be like, with clear distinction between grudges and grudges.
After Ao Bing finished speaking and before Tongtian Cult Master expressed his position, Shi Ji had already stood up and complained: "So that Master will know that Master Taiyi not only has a grudge with Junior Brother Renlong, but also has a dispute with his disciple. Cause and effect."
Then, she told the story about Nezha killing her disciple for no reason. She came to ask for justice, but she was almost killed by Master Taiyi.
"The thieves are really hateful!" "For bullying me into intercepting my disciples, Master Taiyi deserves to die!"
"Isn't it what a Xuanmen disciple would do if he allowed his disciples to do evil?"
Speaking of what happened to Ao Bing, the disciples of the Jie Cult mainly sympathized with him.
But after hearing what happened to Shiji, they were all extremely angry. I wish I could go to Kunlun Mountain right now and eat Master Taiyi alive.
It was normal for them to react this way. Ao Bing was just starting out and said he was a fellow apprentice. In fact, they didn’t have much friendship with each other, so it was naturally difficult to empathize with him.
But Shi Ji is different. They are Taoist friends who have known each other for tens of millions of years. They have a deep affection for each other. Now that they heard that she was almost killed by Master Taiyi, how could everyone not be angry! How can we not be surprised!
Besides, if Master Taiyi dares to kill Shiji today, he may not dare to kill them tomorrow.
How can we keep such a person?
If the leader of Tongtian Cult were not present, this group of Jiejiao disciples must have started discussing how to take revenge on Master Taiyi.
But now in front of the Tongtian Cult Leader, everyone is not allowed to act without permission. The specific method of doing so has to be decided by him.
Therefore, everyone bowed to the leader of Tongtian Cult and said: "Master, this matter must not be settled like this. The disciples of Chan Cult are so arrogant, and we must pay him back. Otherwise, if the news spreads, we will think that I am afraid of his teaching.”
“Hey, another one is in trouble!”
Tongtian Cult Leader did not respond to everyone’s request, but sighed.
He could still tolerate the disciples being robbed, after all, the relationship was not close. But the disciple's calamity was the last thing he wanted to see.
Therefore, he would preach in advance and tell everyone how to avoid the disaster, just to prevent them from getting involved in the murder.
But who would have expected that without a sound, one of his disciples would be robbed.
The one who was in trouble was Shiji.
Like Ao Bing, both committed murders, and they were also committed by Zhenren Taiyi.
Although Shiji was not killed by Taiyi Zhenren last time, the tribulation energy was rampant during the killing and robbery. Just traveling out may lead to the tribulation energy. What's more, he was fighting with others and had murderous intentions.
Once the killing is committed during the killing and calamity, there is no way back and the killing and calamity must be committed. Without going through a lot of killing, there is absolutely no possibility of escaping the disaster.
No, it’s not nothing!
As if something suddenly occurred to him, the leader of Tongtian Cult suddenly cursed and said angrily: "Yuanshi son, I think you are a moral person. I didn't expect that you could come up with such a vicious method."< br>
“You really know people but not their hearts!”
Tongtian Cult Leader suddenly broke out and cursed Yuanshi Tianzun, which shocked everyone present. They subconsciously held their breath and did not even dare to breathe. asthma.
When it comes to saints, how can they judge? Not even agreeable.
"Master, what happened?"
Taoist Duobao asked quickly when he saw this.
"Taiyi must have obtained the calamity-replacing method passed down by Yuanshi Tianzun, and then taught his disciples to be in such a miserable state."
"Otherwise, no matter how bad Taiyi is, he will still be Yuanshi. According to the true teaching, even if the disciples taught are incompetent, they will not be so cruel and ignorant.”
Leader Tongtian said with an ugly expression.
The method of replacing the calamity, as the name suggests, is to find someone to take the calamity on your behalf. But the murderous calamity was brought down by the law of heaven, and it was extremely difficult to hide it from the law of heaven.
Therefore, the person who should be robbed on his behalf must be the person closest to him. Only in this way can it be possible to hide the truth from heaven.
For a monk, the person closest to him must be the successor. After all, master and apprentice are one, connected by fate, and are closer than father and son.
Taiyi Zhenren accepted Nezha as a disciple and did not teach him the principles of life. Instead, he pampered him and made him get into trouble everywhere.
This is not the attitude of a disciple, it is obvious that he is regarded as a tool to replace the calamity.
Since it is a tool, it is natural that the deeper the disaster, the better. In this way, when the disaster breaks out, he will not be able to escape even if he wants to, so he can only respond to the disaster honestly.
