Emperor Zhang Qing has never been the kind of reckless man. At first, he thought it was just a matter of a powerful minister wanting to be emperor.
But as he learned about Shi Tieguo, Emperor Zhang Qing understood that things were not that simple.
The Shitie Kingdom is considered the most powerful country in this area.
Whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, if Shi Tieguo believes in him. The nearby small countries will also be deeply affected by it, and it will be very simple to preach again.
So Zhang Qingdi specifically looked for the black bear spirit and the nine-headed insect. Originally, Zhang Qingdi had imagined that his opponent might be a Bodhisattva!
As a result, the old monk continued to ridicule, "Although this Shitie Kingdom is important, it is not worthy of the Bodhisattva's visit!
Besides, if the Bodhisattva really comes, I advise you, little snake, to stop being troublesome. The three of you face the Bodhisattva. There is no chance of winning. Don't be caught and made into snake soup. "
"That's right! It's right! No wonder the Tathagata is the current Buddha." When he became the Buddha of the past, he must have been sincerely convinced by the Tathagata. "In terms of yin and yang in the three realms, he, Zhang Qingdi, can definitely be ranked among the top three.
The old monk was so angry that his hair almost stood on end.
However, Emperor Zhang Qing still changed his opponent from a Bodhisattva to an Arhat.
To deal with an Arhat, they have more methods.
In the beginning, Emperor Zhang Qing led the Golden Arhat here not only because he was worried about harming the people of Shi Tie Kingdom, but also because this was the place they chose for the decisive battle.
The black bear spirit spent a lot of energy to set up a large formation here. The Zhenwu Demon Suppression Formation at the beginning was just to paralyze the Golden Light Arhat.
Now prepare to fight to the death!
"Break it for me!" The Golden Arhat was still thinking of smashing this true martial statue directly like before!
The golden light touched the Zhenwu statue, and the black bear spirit was bleeding from its orifices. The statue shook for a while, but this time it was not broken by the Golden Arhat.
Zhang Qingdi immediately shut his mouth. He was worried that if he said a few words, the Golden Light Arhat would explode again.
The nine-headed worm reveals its true form!
The noisy birdsong sounded, and he gathered all his magic power together and blasted it at the Golden Arhat!
This is his strongest blow!
The Nine-Headed Insect sometimes feels that fate is magical. Before, he had to make all kinds of plans in order to kill the Dragon King in the pond, and even had to get involved himself.
But now he dares to kill an Arhat!
The attack of the Nine-Headed Insect made the Golden Arhat look a little embarrassed, and also took some pressure off the Black Bear Spirit.
Emperor Zhang Qing picked up the double hammers.
He took a deep breath and hit the hammer hard.
The sky suddenly changed, and the sky was immediately covered with dark clouds.
Golden Light Arhat actually felt a little threatened. This true martial statue made it very difficult for him to move, so he had to smash the statue first!
So he punched the Zhenwu statue again!
At this time, the divine light of the Zhenwu statue shines brightly.
Zhang Qingdi didn't expect that Black Bear Spirit had such a capability despite all the tricks he had used.
But the black bear spirit said with a confused look, "I didn't do this!"
Just after he finished speaking, he heard a voice between heaven and earth.
"Before, I gave Tathagata face and asked you to smash my Dharma. This time, I will let you know why I am called Zhenwu!"
The voice just disappeared. , a huge finger fell down. With a flick of that finger, the golden light was ejected from the body of the golden Arhat.
A golden Arhat without golden light is like a plucked phoenix! Emperor Zhang Qing naturally would not spoil him, so he pushed his magic power to the extreme.
The hammers fall!
The devastating attack fell on the Golden Arhat!
Boom!
At this moment, all the thunder in the sky fell on him. The golden Arhat wrapped in thunder looked extremely weak and helpless!
But Emperor Zhang Qing would not feel any compassion because of this.
Wait until the thunder dissipates. Zhang Qingdi sat down on the ground.
The Golden Arhat stood there with his body covered in burnt black.
His golden light was beside him, and Zhang Qingdi gritted his teeth to activate his golden light. As soon as Emperor Zhang Qing's golden light came out, the golden light on the ground merged with his golden light!
The charred golden Arhat immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
The little toad also unlocked his golden Buddha protection.
He ran over and helped Zhang Qingdi up, and the nine-headed insect came over carrying the unconscious black bear spirit.
"We won?" Nine-Headed Insect asked in disbelief.
Emperor Zhang Qing said weakly, "You should ask that question about the Arhat without a light."
Hearing the Arhat without a light, the bald man who was about to stand immediately fell to the ground.
The Nine-Headed Insect still wanted to go up and finish the attack, but the old monk was late.
"Give the old monk some face and let him go.
He has lost his golden light and will be just an ordinary monk in the future." The old monk said.
Actually, the old monk didn't want them to make the matter too big.
After killing an Arhat, the power behind Emperor Zhang Qing will naturally protect him. Because the strength displayed by Emperor Zhang Qing was worthy of Daozu's protection, but in the end it was a big cause and effect.
Even Daozu dare not say that there are no mishaps and accidents in this world.
"Give the master some face!" Zhang Qingdi said with a smile.
“Are you, are you the Ancient Buddha of Burning Deng?” The Golden Arhat looked at him with tears streaming down his face.
"Do you have any hatred in your heart?" the old monk asked.
I didn’t dare to hide it from him. The golden light was taken away by Emperor Zhang Qing because his skills were inferior to others. But after being outputted by Emperor Zhang Qing’s magical power for so long, he wished he could tear the monster’s mouth apart!
"When you get rid of the hatred in your heart, come and take refuge in me!" Ran Deng stretched out his finger and touched Wu Guang Arhat's forehead.
The Wuguang Arhat instantly became calm.
There was no anger in his eyes, and the injuries all over his body had recovered, but his cultivation was completely lost.
Now, Emperor Zhang Qing can stab him to death with one finger.
“Don’t worry, he won’t hold grudge against you anymore.” The old monk said to Zhang Qingdi, “Of course, if you can shut up, say less!”
"I speak nicely, so naturally I want to talk more." Zhang Qingdi said in a desperate manner.
Emperor Zhang Qing looked extremely calm. He sincerely felt that this Buddhist method was really powerful and it was very easy to change people's minds.
"Ancient Buddha, I will not return to Lingshan Mountain! I want to resolve the anger, ignorance, and hatred in my heart!" Moguang said piously.
"Go and have a rest! Go and have a rest!" Ran Deng said encouragingly.
Zhang Qingdi looked dumbfounded, this guy wouldn't want to thank him.
"Thank you, donor!"
Look, he really thanked us!
"Why are you thanking me?" Zhang Qingdi couldn't help but ask.
"If it weren't for the donor, how would I have the chance to take refuge under the ancient Buddha?" Wu Guang said with his hands clasped together.
"Isn't he a criminal..." Zhang Qingdi said halfway, feeling the murderous aura behind him, so he immediately shut up.
Mo Guang smiled and strode away.
It can be seen that he seems to have really let go now.
“Why?” Emperor Zhang Qing asked puzzledly.
"There are all Bodhisattvas under the Tathagata, not to mention Bodhisattvas under the old monk, but there are no Vajras and Arhats!" the old monk said with a smile.
"This kind of thing shouldn't be hidden from anyone. Why are you so proud to say it?" Zhang Qingdi asked.
"I should have let that golden light kill you!" the old monk said angrily, gritting his teeth.
Zhang Qingdi probably understood why Wu Guang was happy. With Tathagata, he has reached his limit as an Arhat, but the old monk has the opportunity to take him a step further.
"Master, you are so good to the little toad, don't you want him to be your Arhat or Bodhisattva?" Zhang Qingdi asked as he walked, "Let's first It's agreed that the little toad can't become a monk. I also plan to find him a swan and give birth to a nest of little toads for me to play with."
"Listen, what are you talking about? !
If the old monk were not happy today, I would really like to let go of the Dharma first and beat you, you damn monster! "The old monk swore directly.
Zhang Qingdi couldn't help but said, "It's a joke to give birth to a little toad, but I still hope that the little toad can choose its own demon child. "
"I love him no less than you do! The old monk also said sincerely, "I will not interfere with his choice." If he really wants to enter Buddhism, I will not let him become an Arhat or a Bodhisattva! "
Emperor Zhang Qing also has a mouth faster than his head.
"Don't you want him to be the Buddha and the Toad Dharma King! ”
After hearing this name, the old monk finally felt that he should put down his Buddhist teachings.
No! No need to give up Dharma!
Just show this little snake his fists and feet.
The old monk now is not the same as before. At this time, he has gathered several clones. Before Zhang Qingdi's vertical golden light could be used, he was slapped to the ground by the old monk!
Emperor Zhenwu said to the old man in front of him, "You really worry a lot about your disciples."
The crazy Taoist said expressionlessly, "There is only such a disciple left, how can we not take it to heart."
Under normal circumstances, Emperor Zhenwu would not be as knowledgeable as that golden arhat.
It was this man who came suddenly. He was worried about his disciple, so Emperor Zhenwu came to help.
"That fellow Taoist Qing Emperor should have his own good fortune. Why do you need to take care of him like this? I'm afraid it will delay his growth." Emperor Zhenwu said politely.
"I am a disciple, and I still need your advice!" the crazy Taoist said angrily.
Emperor Zhenwu was not angry when he heard this, he laughed and was speechless. If Zhenwu had not taken action today, Emperor Zhang Qing would have been able to win, but the victory would have been tragic.
The crazy Taoist did this to give the West a warning.
I don’t care if you send people of the same level!
But if the realm is too strong, I don’t care about the rules!
After Zhang Qingdi was punched and kicked, he patted his butt and returned to Shi Tieguo.
The old monk looked aggressive, but he started very lightly.
He refused to admit it, but in fact he loved Emperor Zhang Qing more than the little toad.
But if he was asked to admit that he loved this poisonous monster, the old monk would not admit it even to his death, and he would not admit it even if he gave the relic to others!
In the palace of Shitie Kingdom, the little emperor looked into the distance worriedly. As soon as Song Zhao died, his generals turned against him one after another and directly declared their loyalty to the little emperor.
But the little emperor knew that their allegiance was not reliable.
If Emperor Zhang Qing loses, they should find the next master soon.
These insects will have to be replaced in the future!
Fortunately, Emperor Zhang Qing did not disappoint him. He saw auspicious clouds in the distance, and Emperor Zhang Qing created a great scene.
The only regret is that my butt still hurts a little.
That old monk’s fists and kicks are indeed quite powerful.
Could this ancient Buddha of Ran Deng be a warrior monk?
The auspicious clouds landed and the little emperor was about to stand up when Zhang Qingdi clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I have eliminated all the evildoers.
Shi Tieguo no longer has any worries!"
Zhang Qingdi’s voice was not loud, but everyone heard it clearly.
The civil and military ministers in the palace knelt down and knelt down to worship the little emperor sincerely. The little emperor believed that if Emperor Zhang Qing lost, they would sincerely bow to the other one.
The little emperor was very resourceful and took the opportunity to enfeoff several generals.
The general who was about to be punished by Song Zhao but was saved by him became the commander of the Forbidden Army.
When the general heard this reward, he thanked him with red eyes.
Emperor Zhang Qing is sure that this guy will definitely be the little emperor’s confidant in the future.
Seeing the little emperor's methods, Emperor Zhang Qing was relieved.
After the ministers left, Emperor Zhang Qing said with a smile, "It seems that you can handle the rest by yourself."
"Master Qing, I am still a little worried." The little emperor looked at Zhang Emperor Qin.
“You don’t have to worry about Buddhism.” Emperor Zhang Qing said.
This is what the old monk said. Another advantage of leaving the life of the Golden Arhat is that Buddhism will not send anyone else.
And this cause and effect was taken over by Emperor Zhang Qing. If Buddhism wants to come to Shitie Kingdom, he must kill Emperor Zhang Qing first.
"I'll go talk to that person over at Dao Sect. It shouldn't be a big problem." Zhang Qingdi said seriously.
The little emperor believed in Zhang Qingdi’s promise.
Emperor Zhang Qing took out a jade plaque and said, "As long as you and your descendants treat the people well and break the jade plaque again in danger, I will come to rescue you!
At that time I It may not be able to help you secure your position, but there is absolutely no problem in saving your life.”
The little emperor took the jade tablet with both hands and kowtowed three times to Emperor Zhang Qing,
Emperor Zhang Qing accepted his three kowtows with peace of mind, and he left the palace directly.
After he left the palace, he originally wanted to go to the old monk and ask where to find the real Ziyang.
Unexpectedly, I saw Ziyang Zhenren halfway.
It can be seen that he is waiting for Emperor Zhang Qing here.
"Master Qing!" Master Ziyang saluted first.
"Hello, Master Ziyang." Emperor Zhang Qing said politely.
“Are you planning to leave?”
“I am going to meet with you before making other plans.” Zhang Qingdi said seriously.
"I'm curious as to why Mr. Qing is meddling in this business." Master Ziyang pointed his finger, and a pair of stone benches and a stone table appeared in front of them. "Please use tea!"
The fairy tea on the stone table is rich in fragrance, and there are many delightful spiritual fruits.
"You said it was nosy business, so naturally you only care about it when you have nothing to do." Emperor Zhang Qing picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
I felt a stream of spiritual energy entering my throat, and my whole body felt extremely comfortable.
“Master Qing still has his leisure time!”
I don’t know if this guy is deliberately mocking.
"Shi Tieguo, will you still intervene?" Emperor Zhang Qing asked after drinking the tea.
Master Ziyang shook his head, "Don't worry, Mr. Qing, I won't come back to Shi Tieguo for a day! If there is another move on the Buddhist side, I will take care of it."
"That's good!" Emperor Zhang Qing stood up and planned to leave.
This made Master Ziyang a little surprised, "Master Qing believes in me so much?"
"Yes." Emperor Zhang Qing nodded, "My intuition tells me that you are worthy of trust. !
Besides, if you go back on your word, I can come back soon
Even if it’s too late, wait until you come back to figure it out! "
Zhenzhen Ziyang laughed loudly when he heard this.
"Don't worry, Mr. Qing, I will keep my word!
But the one who really should be careful is Mr. Qing. After suffering such a big loss, Buddhism will definitely take action. "(End of this chapter)
