Journey to the West, there are nine golden crows in me

Chapter 1257 Stop the war

Kill the Saint!

Following the Six Saints of Taiqing, Yuqing, Jieyin, Zhunti, Houtu, and Duobao, the seventh saint of the prehistoric times was born!

This is a saint who belongs to the demonic path. He became enlightened by killing. The meaning of his existence is to bring disaster to all living beings. To let everyone know that the power of God is unpredictable.

When the Killing Saint was born, there was a lot of commotion, and even many strong men showed incredible expressions.

Because they really didn't expect that the new saint would come from the devil's path.

In today's prehistoric times, Xuanmen is still the dominant one. As for the demonic path, it is not even as good as the Buddhist path. If heaven had not allowed the demonic path to disappear, they would have been destroyed by Xuanmen long ago.

Under such circumstances, the devil actually gave birth to a saint, which can be imagined as a shock to people.

"The Saint of Killing, the descendant of the Demon Lord Yuanshi, is quite reasonable."

Jiang Chen was not too surprised, because this was expected.

The meaning of the saint's existence is to promote the evolution of heaven and earth and to maintain the order of heaven and earth. Therefore, the standpoint of the saint is never on the side of all living beings, but on the other side of heaven and earth. When they do things, they must proceed from the standpoint of heaven and earth.

After understanding this, we know that the birth of the Demon Saint is inevitable.

Slaughtering all living beings is a great crime for all living beings, but for heaven and earth, it is a great merit. Because after the death of all living beings, their origins return to heaven and earth, which can promote the evolution of heaven and earth.

The new demonic saint understood this, so he slaughtered the monks in the chaos, in order to gain insight into the secrets of heaven and obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi.

Of course, after becoming a saint, the Demon Saint's killing methods become much more advanced. He no longer does it himself, but controls the fate of heaven and earth to kill monks.

For example, the Demon Saint sets up the Heart Demon Tribulation to lure those monks who are not firm in their Taoism to become demons, and use their hands to slaughter other living beings.

Just like in times of great chaos, the Demon Saint uses his magical powers to amplify the desires in the hearts of ambitious people, and uses their hands to stir up disputes and bring chaos to the world.

All these are the methods of the Demon Saint, whose purpose is to kill the monks and return their origins to heaven and earth.

Before the Demon Saint appeared, these things were all spontaneous operations of heaven and earth, and the effects were often not very good. As a result, the monks accumulated more and more, and finally turned into calamities.

Heavenly Dao learned from the previous lessons, and then gave birth to a new holy throne, allowing it to take over this part of the authority and reduce the number of monks for him.

To put it simply, the Demon Saint is the black glove of Heaven, specially designed to do His dirty work.

Don't blame Heaven for targeting monks everywhere, it's actually their existence that is unreasonable. Life and death are an important part of the cycle of heaven and earth. Life and death constitute reincarnation.

However, the monks have life and death, disrupting the cycle of heaven and earth, and disrupting the reincarnation of all living beings. Heaven will naturally find ways to target them to prevent their number from increasing and squeezing the living space of other living beings.

At the same time, appropriately reducing the number of monks can delay the arrival of calamity and even weaken its power.

In short, for the normal cycle of heaven and earth, the birth of the Demon Christmas is inevitable.

In fact, a long time ago, some people predicted that the new saint must come from the devil's path. At that time, everyone felt that the most promising candidate to become a saint was the Demon Lord Yuanshi Tian.

Because the demon clan he created is simply a powerful weapon against monks. No matter how high your cultivation level is or how strong your strength is, as long as your state of mind is deficient, problems will arise when you encounter the devil.

Therefore, many people thought that as long as Yuanshi Tianzun was given time to grow, he would eventually be able to get rid of Yuanshi Tianzun and achieve the status of a saint.

However, Yuanshi Tianzun did not give Yuanshi Tianzun time to grow up. Not long after he emerged, he was sealed by Yuanshi Tianzun with great supernatural powers.

The path to sainthood for a generation of demon lords was cut off by the original demon lord.

However, although the holy path of the Yuanshi Heavenly Demon Lord has been cut off, it is certain that the new saint must be related to the Heavenly Demon Clan.

As expected, the Demon Saint is a member of the Heavenly Demon clan, the first Heavenly Demon born in the new era, and can be regarded as the successor of the Yuanshi Heavenly Demon Lord.

Originally, he was not qualified to become a saint. But when Yuanshi Tianzun broke through the realm of creation, he forcibly captured the Yuanshi Tianzun with his great supernatural powers and completely refined him.

At this point, a generation of demon lords has fallen.

After his death, a civil war broke out among the demon clan in order to fight for his inheritance. There is no doubt that the Demon Saint is the final winner.

Jiang Chen had previously said that he would leave a holy throne for the creatures of the new era. It just so happens that the Demon Saint is the creature born in the new era.

He already has a destiny, and he has received the legacy of the Demon Lord Yuanshi. When these two advantages are combined, the Demon Saint is qualified to become a saint.

"There were ten saints in the ancient world. Seven saints have been born now, and there are still three more to go."

"As for the remaining three saints, their ownership has been determined early on. There are three saints, one from the human race, one from the Xuanmen race, and one from the Wu race."

"I just don't know when the remaining three saints will return."

After glancing at the Demon Saint, Jiang Chen thought silently. He actually doesn't care much about saints or anything like that.

Even in the old era, when the authority of the Emperor of Heaven was not evident, the status of the saints was not as good as that of the Emperor of Heaven, let alone in today's era when the Emperor of Heaven is the only one.

So what if he is a saint? The way of heaven must obey the orders of the emperor, how much less the saints who are the spokespersons of the way of heaven? They are all ministers of the Emperor of Heaven.

Of course, Jiang Chen doesn't care who the saint is, but he cares about the number of saints. The more saints there are, the more complete the prehistoric times are. Therefore, he eagerly wanted to see a new saint born.

But fortunately, the Xuanmen Saint and the Wu Clan Saint could both see the signs. But only the saints of the human race have not seen any signs of being reborn.

Jiang Chen set the standard too high. A human saint must become a saint through merit, which is almost impossible.

With the current situation of heaven and earth, if you want to obtain enough merit to become a saint, it is obviously not enough to just do good deeds. There is only one way to go, and that is to defeat the Chaos Demon God and dedicate him to the prehistoric era.

But they are all capable of defeating the Chaos Demon God, so what’s the use of having a holy position? Isn't this a contradiction?

Therefore, it has become almost impossible to become a saint through merit.

Jiang Chen was in trouble right here. He didn't think much about it at the time. He just thought that this method could inspire all sentient beings to do good, so he set such a requirement.

But now that I think about it, this request has almost become a big pie. It can be seen but cannot be touched. When sentient beings are discouraged, they may give up on this holy position.

Also, it is really stupid to ask for something when you know it is impossible to ask for. This condition must be changed, but Jiang Chen hasn't figured out how yet.

……

Although the birth of the Demon Saint caused many ripples in the wilderness, it did not have much impact on the overall situation.

The pattern of the prehistoric era has been decided. It cannot be controlled by a saint, at least it must be a powerful person like Jiang Chen.

But unfortunately, although the strength of the saint has been strengthened, it is only in the realm of creation, and is still far away from the realm of chaos.

The appearance of the Demon Saint can at most make the Demon Dao live more comfortably and no longer linger on its last breath. But it is impossible to return to the top.

The ripples caused by the recognition of the owner of the fragments of the jade dish of creation and the birth of the Demon Christmas gradually calmed down over a long period of time, and the general trend of the ancient world is still moving forward mightily.

Unknowingly, tens of millions of years have passed.

But even after such a long time, it did not restore peace to the ancient world. Instead, it became increasingly chaotic. The dispute between the parallel time and space and the main world was already extremely fierce, and now the Demon Saint is adding fuel to the flames, making this dispute not only not end with the passage of time, but also intensified.

Almost every once in a while, a parallel world is destroyed, and then a new parallel world is born.

The two parties are getting stronger little by little as they go back and forth. The price was the death of countless monks.

Originally, all the powerful men had tacitly approved of the outbreak of this war. It could even be said that they had deliberately promoted it.

But even they did not expect that this battle would last for such a long time and be so tragic.

The war lasted for tens of millions of years. Although many people benefited, many more people paid a heavy price.

Just like the three thousand Taoist traditions of Xuanmen, although the overall strength has increased, more than two-thirds of the forces are severely damaged, and some are even on the verge of extinction.

If Xuanmen is like this, let alone other forces.

Seeing this scene, many strong men couldn't sit still. They all went to heaven and asked Jiang Chen to come forward to stop the war.

We can't continue the fight. If we continue to fight, the result will be that the strong will stay strong and the weak will perish!

If this battle can be compared to a game, some people feel that they can't turn the tables, or even lose more as they continue to play, so they are not ready to play.

……

"You fellow Taoists, do you want me to step in and stop the fight?"

In the Lingxiao Palace, Jiang Chen looked at Taiqing Duobao Jieyin and other saints below and asked uncertainly.

"Yes, I hope your majesty will show mercy and step in to stop the war. How can a war last for tens of millions of years without ending?"

"For thousands of years, the mountains and rivers have been stained with blood, the sky has turned red, and countless people have died tragically. Whether it is for the sake of heaven and earth, or for the survival of the people, this war cannot continue."

The saint said with compassion.

"Yeah yeah!"

"The war has lasted for too long, and it is time to end. Please show mercy and stop the war."

Beside the saint, the other saints also echoed.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen didn't change on the surface, but he couldn't help but shake his head in his heart. Bullshit, compassion, it’s not like these people can’t afford it.

Those who appeared here today to persuade him to step in and stop the fight are all losers in this war, and there is no real winner.

They wished that this war would continue for tens of millions of years, and then take this opportunity to annex all the forces present. How could they come here to persuade Jiang Chen to stop the war?

As for the safety of common people?

The common people live in the divine city, but the war takes place in the gap between parallel time and space and the main world. The two have nothing to do with each other. As long as you stay in the divine city honestly, nothing will happen.

But if you are greedy and take the initiative to go to the battlefield between the two realms, who can you blame if you die?

Those who stay in the divine city are the common people, and those who appear on the battlefield are monks. Whether you can survive or not depends entirely on your own destiny.

"You fellow Taoists are right. Because of the dispute between parallel time and space and the main world, the ancient world has been plunged into chaos, and there is no peace for a moment."

"This move is not good for the common people, and it's time to end it."

Although he felt disdain in his heart, Jiang Chen still followed their words. Because the duration of this battle is indeed a bit long. It's time to stop this battle and let Honghuang rest for a while.

"Ok?"

When everyone saw Jiang Chen agreeing so readily, their first reaction was not happiness, but surprise.

They originally thought that if they wanted Jiang Chen to agree, they would have to pay a big price. But who would have expected that Jiang Chen would agree to their request before their conditions were even met.

There must be fraud in this.

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

Although they felt something was wrong, Jiang Chen was willing to show up to them, so they couldn't help but realize that they quickly shouted long live Jiang Chen.

"How will Your Majesty stop the war?"

At this time, Saint Taiqing asked.

"Simple!"

Looking at him with a half-smile, Jiang Chen waved his sleeves and reached out to grab Honghuang below.

In an instant, the world changed, and all the innate energy gathered at this moment, and was grabbed by Jiang Chen.

"This……"

All the strong men present and those not present jumped up in shock when they saw this scene, not knowing what Jiang Chen meant by doing this.

"You monks, if you don't engage in metaphysical discussions and cultivate your moral character, you will cause trouble everywhere and stir up disputes, causing wars to last for thousands of years, and there will be no peace for a moment in the world."

"The sins you have committed are not tolerated by heaven and earth. Now I take away the spiritual energy and cut off the support for you to show off your evil as a punishment."

Jiang Chen's voice echoed throughout the world, making the faces of the monks who were fighting turn pale.

Today is different from the past, the prehistoric era has lost its aura of chaos. Unlike before, even if there is no spiritual energy in the world, the Xiantian Taoist Master can continue to practice by refining the energy of chaos.

It can be said that if you are not a quasi-sage now, you cannot do without vitality. Without vitality, they will not be able to practice?

Jiang Chen's actions were tantamount to ending their cultivation path. How could they not be afraid?

"Is this... Your Majesty going too far?"

Saint Taiqing hesitated for a moment and then asked.

He knew that if Jiang Chen took action, he would definitely punish the monks in the lower world, but he did not expect that Jiang Chen's punishment would be so severe, directly interrupting everyone's path to practice.

"rest assured!"

"I'm just scaring them, letting them remember this lesson, and after a while, I will give them the spiritual energy back."

Jiang Chen smiled and explained to the nervous people.

"I see!"

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It's okay to just scare them, but if Jiang Chen was serious, it would be too scary.

After all, it was after they met Jiang Chen that Jiang Chen made this decision. If this matter spreads out, there is no guarantee that no one will think that they encouraged Jiang Chen to do this.

Otherwise, it is unexplainable. Tens of millions of years have passed, and the Emperor of Heaven has never had the intention to take action. Why did he suddenly take action to stop the war and punish a group of monks after seeing them?

If everyone really misunderstands this matter, even if they are saints, they cannot afford the consequences. After all, even a saint cannot offend the public!
