Becoming a god starts from planting a Bodhi tree.

Chapter 263 Two Months Later, the West is Set

The more Li Yinghai thought about it, the more suffocated he felt, almost suffocating to death.

If he was asked to look for Ji Jingqiu again, he would take the initiative to "send" Jia Weiting, and even say with a smile that Brother Ji was a divine fortune teller...

What's the difference between this and letting him die!
"There are at least twenty celestial beings in the western families. Are they just going to let Ji Jingqiu run rampant in the west?"

Li Yinghai didn't understand. Was the Li family going to take the initiative to show goodwill to Ji Jingqiu? Just because of the war situation in the west?

Are all the celestial beings in the western families good-for-nothings like Sima Long? No wonder the celestial beings of the Wanwu Association look down on the celestial beings who stay in the rear and dare not go to the Heavenly Road!
Things have come to this point. Even if Ji Jingqiu is so powerful, he should be suppressed if several celestial beings attack him at the same time!

"Because the federal government has also taken action, some people in Baimai have already stood by Ji Jingqiu. After Ji Jingqiu first entered the heart phase and suppressed Sima Long of the Sima family, new alignment began."

The elder of the Li family said indifferently.

If we look back at this silent but huge "teaming up" over the past year from today's perspective, we will find that it was initially driven by those great masters.

But who could have thought that not long after the masters left, Ji Jingqiu had grown to this point?

It happened too fast, so fast that all parties were not prepared at all and still treated him as a genius.

Li Yinghai was furious. What a waste the Sima family was. They were such great celestial beings, but they were suppressed by a warrior who had just entered the state of mind. It was a shame for the celestial beings!
"Under such circumstances, for the Western Conference teams, beating Ji Jingqiu in a one-on-one match is actually their last chance to gain more say."

The elder of the Li family shook his head and was not optimistic about the future situation in the West.

Especially after news of Ji Jingqiu's capture of several cities continued to spread.

The federal officials and Baimai joined forces and showed an attitude and determination of not giving up until the end. Certain forces in other star fields had to consider whether to continue to intervene.

The West now has to either fight to the death or follow the path planned by the government and Baimai.

The real cleverness of the authorities is that they gave the western nobles a dead end that looked like a way of life - waiting for Ji Jingqiu to come and ask for advice, so as to compete with them.

Even if some clans have already reacted as Ji Jingqiu keeps winning, what’s the use?
late.

The most important thing is that the six major families are also tied up, either self-proclaimed or fighting among themselves, and it is difficult for them to intervene in the affairs of the West. For example, the Mu family has already openly stood on Ji Jingqiu's side...

In this situation, what can the western tribes do to fight to the death?
"No matter how well Ji Jingqiu does in the West, does our Li family have to flatter him?" Li Yinghai took a deep breath.

Throughout the thousands of years of the Federation, there have been extraordinary figures in every era.

Counting back, there was Chi Yinghuo three thousand years ago, Zhang Tiancheng two thousand years ago, and even Wan Chengcang a thousand years ago.

They may not be as stunning as Ji Jingqiu at the moment, but they also dominated an era.

But when did the six major families need to go out of their way to make friends?
No matter how talented one is, he is no more talented than the grandmaster of the clan, let alone the ancestors of the past.

"Because he is the descendant of Mu Shuai!" The elder of the Li family frowned unhappily and said, "The six major families are born from the same roots, so we should support each other. Since he is the descendant of Mu Shuai, he is naturally one of us. In the Mu family, his status should be regarded as the 'young ancestor'. Even the five of us should give him enough respect."

"As a disciple of the Li family, the first thing you have to do is to protect the family and the foundation of the six major families. Do I need to teach you this?"

Li Yinghai opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Ji Jingqiu's identity as the successor of the Buddha is no longer a secret to the six major families, because the Mu family has announced it to them.

But Li Yinghai didn't expect that the elders would attach so much importance to and protect this identity, to the point of ignoring the fact that Ji Jingqiu was the descendant of He Shuai!

The elder of the Li family glanced at Li Yinghai and did not reveal the fact that Ji Jingqiu had already been recognized by the Mu family's magical weapons. This matter currently only remains within the circle of celestial beings.

He asked Li Yinghai to get ready as soon as possible and to pay a visit to Ji Jingqiu to express his stance as soon as Ji Jingqiu returned from the west.

After the elders left, Li Yinghai stood there for a long time without moving.

Until a familiar indifferent voice sounded.

"What did the Qingyan clan elder say to you just now?"

Li Yinghai suddenly became alert. It was Li Xuanting!

The situation and rules of the Li family are similar to those of the Mu family, but the situation is better. They are not as watched by the [Devil] as the Mu family, and there is also a rule that side branches can become part of the main line.

For example, he himself is a direct descendant who entered from a side branch.

But Li Xuanting's uncle and nephew are different from them, they are the real main branch of the Li family.

"Uncle Xuan Ting." Li Yinghai said stiffly. He was wary of this person and didn't want to get too close to him.

Li Yinghai briefly explained what the clan elder had just instructed.

After hearing this, Li Xuanting did not express his opinion, but just nodded and turned away.

Looking at this person's back, Li Yinghai frowned.

Although this uncle and nephew are the direct descendants of the family, they are very strange. Especially Li Xuanting, he always feels that the Li family has treated them unfairly...

Li Xuanting left and walked into a secluded house. He dialed a number and said straight to the point:

"You guys in the West can't even hold Ji Jingqiu back as long as possible?"

After a moment, the other party replied coldly: "The authorities and Baimai have made a clear statement. We can't do anything for the time being. Aren't you the same?"

"What about the Wanwu Association? Even if Ji Jingqiu has the help of magic weapons, he is still not in the top 20 of the Heavenly Man List, right? Can't those two people from the Wanwu Association defeat him?" Li Xuanting said in a deep voice.

As far as he knew, when Ji Jingqiu reached the top of Baiyujing and cut down Zhang Tiancheng's projection with one sword, it caused a lot of controversy within the Wanwu Association.

Grandmaster Zhang's methods were astonishing, and many people in the Wanwu Association had already worshipped him as a god, almost deifying him.

"The Wanwu Society is not stupid. Their goal is to enter the official system and then seize power in the federation. Under the official propaganda, it is no problem for Ji Jingqiu to be said to be the popular will. They will not choose to be the enemy of Ji Jingqiu at this point, as the latter's trend is already set." The other side explained.

"Propaganda? Media opinion is always controlled by the upper echelons!"

Li Xuanting said coldly,
"Taking down Ji Jingqiu at this time is equivalent to gaining the support of all the tribes in the west. Could it be that they still want to win over Ji Jingqiu? Don't forget that Wanwu Association is also a vested interest in the matter of Ji Jingqiu's parents."

The other party was silent for a moment, and then said, "That was just an accident. The one who actually attacked Ji Jingqiu's parents was Jia Weiting, and he had no direct connection with the Wanwu Association."

Li Xuanting interrupted: "So Wanwuhui is ready to bow its head?"

After another silence, the other party finally stopped hiding and revealed:
"The Wanwu Association will take action at the last moment of the battle in the west, but it will not suppress Ji Jingqiu, but mediate the conflict between Ji Jingqiu and the various tribes in the west and act as a middleman."

Li Xuanting sneered:

"Middleman? Wait until Ji Jingqiu beats him to the end, then jump out to reap the fruits. This is exactly what I think of those people. They are stupid and unaware!"

……

……

Time flies.

Two months have passed since Ji Jingqiu returned to the western battlefield.

Time flies. Even for the western region, which is ravaged by war and is suffering every moment, looking back on the past two months seems like a dream.

At this moment.

Ji Jingqiu was walking in a city that was being rebuilt, the morning breeze before dawn brushing past his ears.

His mind was always in harmony with heaven and earth. There was no distinction between the inner and outer world. He truly became a part of heaven and earth.

The surging invisible void energy was like the sea, his body was immersed in it, all the pores and acupoints in his body opened up, he breathed in the air from heaven and earth, and he felt unprecedented comfort.

He could feel that his innate formless Taoist body was slowly transforming, and his vitality seemed to be rising.

Normally, this step would only have limited impact on improving vitality, and it would be more about the understanding of legal principles, but he was clearly going beyond common sense at the moment.

Although this is a good thing, it is not very "friendly" to the subsequent unity of mind and body.

For Ji Jingqiu, what is more natural than the transformation of his innate Taoist body is the great unification of his mind, and this step is not difficult at all.

And what follows is his biggest and final challenge before the gods.

——Unity of mind and body.

In the past two months, he traveled between heaven and earth, challenging the celestial beings of the West, fighting to support fighting, but the results of his mind-body unity were still minimal.

"I feel like it's not enough. The transformation of the innate Dao body seems to be missing something."

Ji Jingqiu muttered to himself.

The part of his divine sense in the heart moon between his eyebrows was telling him that he could do better in this step.

Hela's lazy voice echoed in his mind:

"After I go back this time, I will teach you the [Formless Heavenly Demon Method]. If you want to pass the stage of the unity of mind and body, in addition to the water mill, you also need to rely on the power of the various realms."

This sentence aroused Ji Jingqiu's interest.

This martial art is finally about to meet its master.

"End your trip to the West as soon as possible. Although it's fun to watch the internal infighting within your federation, it's boring to watch you push forward all the way."

Ji Jingqiu gently stroked the handle of Qingzhu's sword.

In the past two months, he has visited all the "famous" noble families and Taoist temples in the west.

In the beginning, everyone was not friendly, and there were many celestial beings who tried to surround and kill him, but with the protection of the magical weapon "Four Directions Glazed Realm", he was least afraid of group battles.

In addition, the military and the powerful men of Baimai were not there to watch the show. Ji Jingqiu's "going alone" itself was also a way of using himself as bait.

Their attitude towards those who break the unspoken rules is also completely different. If you want to govern the West, both thunder and rain are indispensable, and these "active" sacrifices are needed.

After a period of "running-in", his relationship with the western tribes gradually became "harmonious".

Ji Jingqiu once again acknowledged that fame is earned through fighting, respect is earned through killing, and only a broken wall can make people turn back.

Hela suddenly said, “Do you think your current actions are meaningful? Perhaps in a hundred years, everything will be restored. History always repeats itself.”

Ji Jingqiu paused slightly.

Unconscious.

He stood at a fork in the road again, with noise in his ears, the morning sun rising from the horizon, and a vigorous crowd surging.

The city is being rebuilt, people are coming and going, and everyone is doing their part to rebuild their homes.

The official government actually gave many people the option of moving to other star regions, but many people still chose to stay.

Perhaps it’s because this is my hometown, there are some unspeakable feelings, or there are too many pasts and people that I can’t let go of…

Ji Jingqiu stopped for a long time and did not walk into the crowd, but he still felt a sense of comfort, just like sitting at the window of a train under the night sky and seeing the small lights of farmhouses in the distance.

Isn't this meaningful? There are some things that you can't just say "I'll do it this way later" and not do them.

At least……

"Before I die, the noble families in the west will remember the day I came to your door."

Ji Jingqiu looked up and saw several figures standing in the distant void.

Just as Hela said before, it was time to end, and this planet was his last stop.

He took a step forward and his figure disappeared at the street corner. No one even noticed his departure.

With one step, Ji Jingqiu arrived at the last stop of his journey to the west. If nothing unexpected happens, today will be the end of his journey.

Standing in front of him, in addition to a female celestial being who was in the plan, Yu and Liu's Liu Shu, there were also two celestial warriors he did not know.

Ji Jingqiu was a little surprised and asked, "Isn't the fate of the Gaohe Wang family and other noble families enough to alert Senior Liu?"

The Gaohe Wang family he mentioned was the western noble family that once tried to join forces to kill him.

In the end, all the clans involved were labeled as rebels, and the outcome was self-evident.

The Liu family's female Tianren said somewhat awkwardly: "Nephew Ji misunderstood, these two are warriors from the Wanwu Association."

Wanwuhui?
Ji Jingqiu looked up.

Among the forces at the forefront of Tianlu, Wanwuhui can be said to be a behemoth. Many warriors from the Federation who have been to Tianlu have been registered with this force.

A middle-aged warrior with a warm face stepped out and said with a smile: "Nephew Ji, my name is Zheng Beihe. I am here on behalf of the Wanwu Association and would like to make some contribution to the restoration of the western region."

Ji Jingqiu naturally respected the powerful forces guarding the Federation at the frontier of Tianlu and listened attentively.

Seeing Ji Jingqiu giving him face like this, Zheng Beihe couldn't help but smile:
"We believe that the changes in the West should stop here."

"Nephew Ji may not be aware that the spiritual ocean has changed, the catastrophe is approaching, and with a powerful enemy at hand, it is not easy to waste time on internal strife!"

"The tribes in the west have indeed acted too recklessly this time, but it would be a bit too much to deprive them of everything and deny their past contributions."

"The so-called family, country and the world are the great principles. As for the rest, they are all minor details. If the great principles are not violated, the minor details are just insignificant."

"As long as the tribes in the west are willing to contribute to the upcoming catastrophe, the Federation should make concessions and everyone should take a step back..."

Listening to this person speaking eloquently and with great impatience.

Ji Jingqiu was a little confused.

How come there are still people who think that they are the ones taking away things that belong to the western tribes?
Besides, the catastrophe is approaching, can the tribes in the west not contribute?
These are not things that can be discussed.

He slightly side-glanced, looked into the distance, and asked calmly: "Everyone, look over there, what do you see?"

Looking in the direction Ji Jingqiu pointed, everyone saw the sun gradually rising on the horizon.

With the eyesight of all the celestial beings, you can even see the sparks splashing and the surging blazing fire inside the stars.

The corner of Zheng Beihe's eyes twitched slightly. He could hear something hidden in Ji Jingqiu's tone. His previous remarks did not seem to have any effect.

"A lot of people are looking forward to daybreak, which means it's dark."

Ji Jingqiu seemed to be talking to himself.

"What I saw was not a sunrise, but a new era, my era."

He turned around, the energy in his body suddenly increased, and he locked onto the three people from a distance, and shouted:

“This is justice!”

All the justice in the world lies in fists.

He punched out with such force that it hit all three of them!

Even though Zheng Beihe, who was standing in the front, was like standing at the root of a mountain, with his true energy deep and unfathomable, heavy and solid, he was still as shaky as a storm under this punch, as if he could not withstand a single blow!
……

In the void.

A celestial being said seriously: "He seems to be stronger than before!"

Everyone was silent, including some of Ji Jingqiu's defeated opponents.

They looked at the Liu family's Tianren, who had retreated in embarrassment and had taken the initiative to leave the battlefield before the battle...

Is this battle still controversial?

No more. Even the few second-level people in the West were all defeated by Ji Jingqiu.

Even if several first-level celestial beings join forces, what’s the use?

There is even no need for the military and Baimai to take action. Under the protection of the Mu family's magic weapon, Ji Jingqiu is not afraid of group battles at all!

Some people looked at the dim green lamp above Ji Jingqiu's head with envy.

"I heard that when this divine weapon was at its peak, it could support the Ten Directions Glazed Realm, covering the heavens, the earth, the east, the west, the south, the north, the gates of life, the place of death, the past, and the future... Now that it only has four directions, it already makes the gods and humans feel powerless. It is hard to imagine its power at its peak."

"Nowadays, top-notch semi-god soldiers without offensive capabilities are not worthy of fighting Ji Jingqiu."

"In the current Federation, apart from the six major families, it seems that only a few forces at the forefront of the Heavenly Road have such top-notch semi-divine weapons. Unfortunately, the warriors of the Ten Thousand Martial Arts Conference did not bring them with them."

"Haha, those people from the Wanwu Association were all stopped by the official masters. They are thinking too well this time. They want to take advantage of others midway? I have heard for a long time that the Wanwu Association has been in a mess for many years. It is indeed true."

"Well, is this the end?"

……

Zheng Beihe was in a disheveled state, with a mixture of shock and anger in his heart. He was angry at the Liu family's retreat and Ji Jingqiu's decisive attack, and he was even more shocked by Ji Jingqiu's strength.

It turned out to be just as the rumors said, without any water in his body, and his physique was even stronger than their celestial bodies!

"Nephew Ji, are you going to make an enemy of our Wanwu Association?" He shouted loudly, his heart sinking deeper and deeper.

And the only response he got was a fist!
He dominates the world, showing his egocentric attitude. His martial arts will is so intense that it makes people's heart flutter, as if all the righteousness in the world can be derived from his fist!
This punch caused everyone in all directions to be silent. People were not shocked by the power of the punch, but by the martial arts concept contained in it, which fully demonstrated Ji Jingqiu's "attitude towards life".

Do not compromise, do not bow your head, and even force all parties to bow their heads!

"He is stronger than before..." someone whispered, repeating this horrifying fact.

Everyone was silent, even "insiders" like Xin Lie, the leader of the Third Army.

Ji Jingqiu's strength lies not only in his current ability to transcend the divine ban, but also in his bottomless potential and terrifying speed of improvement.

This made them clearly realize that the future pattern of the federation will undergo major changes!

At this moment, Ji Jingqiu stepped into the void with an invincible momentum. Even if the two celestial beings joined forces, they could not stop him. They kept retreating under his fists and finally fled in embarrassment.

"I still held back and showed mercy." Ji Jingqiu sighed softly.

Looking at the backs of the two celestial beings escaping into the void at the Wanwu Conference, the group of celestial beings watching the fight fell into silence after hearing Ji Jingqiu's muttering.

When Ji Jingqiu's eyes fell on the Liu family's celestial being, Liu Shu smiled bitterly and said:

"The Liu family is willing to follow the Federation's arrangements."

After hearing these words, even Xin Lie, who had no doubts about the outcome, still couldn't help but be a little dazed.

He spent his entire life thinking about pacifying the West, and in order to bring peace to the West, he had to deal with the countless mountaintops.

They were all powerful families with gods and noble men in charge. Even if he became the third military leader, he was still far from qualified...

Xin Lie's gaze finally fixed on Ji Jingqiu, feeling a little melancholy and a little relieved.

Only a warrior like Ji Jingqiu, who is at the top of the Federation in terms of personal talent, strength, and status, is qualified to dominate the West like this...

But no matter what, starting today——

The West is tentatively decided!

Just now.

Everyone looked up suddenly. They felt an invisible force coming from nowhere, falling from a very high place like a waterfall, and pouring into Ji Jingqiu's body!

This power... is like the incense sticks lit by all living beings in the west, converging at this moment and flowing down in a mighty manner.

In an instant, Ji Jingqiu stood in the void, and the ocean-like life waves surged out from his body, brilliant and vast!
Everyone couldn't help but change color.

Where did this mysterious power come from? It seemed to be... tempering Ji Jingqiu's body?
This boy's physique is already shocking enough! How far will it develop? !

Ji Jingqiu looked back, his eyes swept across the celestial beings watching in the void, and said calmly:

"Xibu Chuping, please abide by the previous agreement. If I come to your house again next time, it will not be a discussion, but just a comparison of who is better."

Everyone felt chilled to the heart. Ji Jingqiu's calm words revealed unparalleled martial arts ideas, and were definitely not a joke.

No one is better than the other…

It’s a matter of life and death!
"In three months, I will host a banquet for all the meridians on the East 3 Brilliant Star. If you are interested, you can come and have a gathering."

After saying this, Ji Jingqiu took a step away.

Leaving all the gods and people in a state of confusion.

With Ji Jingqiu's current strength and status, he is hosting a banquet for all the meridians...

Do you want to be the master of all meridians?

……

The war situation in the West was not strictly sealed, and the results of each battle were gradually reported, shocking everyone who was paying attention to the West.

Not only within the federation, the news also spread to surrounding civilizations.

In the eyes of many people, the war in the West has a sense of dislocated absurdity.

The three words "Ji Jingqiu" made all parties feel a sense of heaviness for the first time.

This is the feeling of oppression that comes from facing a strong person.

A genius with ambitions for the future and a strong man who dominates the West are two completely different concepts, and they need to adopt different attitudes to face them.
