Becoming a god starts from planting a Bodhi tree.

Chapter 282: The Seven Marshals’ Ideological Conflict
The reason why the fighting power of the gods is superior to that of warriors of the same level is not only because they are nourished by all spirits, but also because of the word "Kingdom of God".

The kingdom of gods is equivalent to the heaven and earth dojo of warriors, but in terms of dominance and integrity, the kingdom of gods of the same level is stronger.

The kingdom of God is a truly complete world. The great way prevails, and the heaven and earth suppress it. Even if a warrior has the dojo of heaven and earth, he can only barely protect himself.

Of course, although the Kingdom of God is powerful, there are really few warriors who would look down on such a "prison made of lines".

Warriors from all realms know one thing: avoid the lairs of gods that are set up as prisons on a circle, and come out and fight if you have the guts.

So Honglian fell into despair in an instant. He became a god halfway, and the kingdom of God he founded was not qualified enough to be the enemy of this majestic kingdom of God, even if it was just a virtual shadow.

Between heaven and earth, the phantom with a human head and a snake body easily grabbed the only remaining spiritual holy fetus, Honglian, who was still trying to escape, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Without even a scream, his mind was crushed into countless fragments, swallowed by the stomach, and the memories within were extracted.

And this moment.

Ji Jingqiu turned around and walked through the aisle among countless Dream God believers who were kneeling on the ground, kowtowing and crying with joy, and returned to the temple again.

In the pond of the temple, the girl was still kneeling there blankly. Her emerald eyes were filled with confusion. She hadn't figured out what was going on yet, but there was an unconcealable excitement in her eyes, because according to the records of the tribe, only those with sincere hearts could be chosen as servants of God and ascend to the kingdom of the Mother Goddess after death!

After seeing Ji Jingqiu walk into the temple, the girl screamed and quickly stood up to greet the envoy of God.

Although everyone had a very happy chat before, this was the Kingdom of God after all, and she had just entered the Kingdom of God, so when she was working...

Ding bell sound——

The girl was surprised to find that the necklace on her neck had returned. She immediately wondered if the necklace from the envoy of God was gone...

Ji Jingqiu walked closer, suddenly stretched out his hand to rub the girl's hair, and asked:
"what's your name?"

The girl blushed immediately. It turned out that she had not yet told the Lord Messenger of God her name. She stammered, "My... My name is Bai Lan!"

Ji Jingqiu nodded, put one hand on the girl's head, and said seriously: "Bai Lan, the Mother Goddess is very dissatisfied with your performance. She wants you to remember that next time you encounter trouble, remember to say that crying children get candy, and only believers who ask for help can be redeemed by the Mother Goddess."

"Yes Yes!"

Looking at the girl who was uneasy and had big blinking eyes, Ji Jingqiu lowered his eyelids slightly.

The voice from before said that no one would die today.

But what really made Ji Jingqiu angry was far more than just the death of the girl.

At this moment, in the inner world, Hela, who had already digested the memory of the false god Honglian, spoke word by word in a cold voice:

"It's Ji Tianxing, this scum must be plotting against us!"

"Who are you talking about?"

Ji Jingqiu recalled the voice that just echoed in his mind, his expression solemn.

The source of the previous voice was Ji Shuai?

From what I saw during this journey through the worlds, was it Ji Shuai who was behind all this?

Ji Jingqiu took a deep breath. This was a possibility he had never expected or even thought about in this direction.

But when he recalled the words that had just passed through his mind, he gradually fell silent.

All of this was done to allow him to usurp Hela's divine power?

He turned his head and looked outside the hall, into the dark and empty space.

After another "get out", the voice echoing in his mind disappeared.

It seems that there is another person joining the game today, is it the Four God Lords, or... Mu Shuai?
The reason why Ji Jingqiu made such a guess was because the white lotus that manifested the great way between heaven and earth had disappeared without a trace at some point.

It is rumored that Mu Shuai still has a thought left in the world, but no one knows where it is.

It seemed to be responding to his thoughts.

The wind blew through the temple gate.

Ji Jingqiu suddenly stood up and looked back. The girl looked like a frightened deer. She looked towards the gate vigilantly, but saw nothing. The girl rubbed her eyes, but still saw nothing.

In Ji Jingqiu's sight, a seemingly ordinary figure stood in front of him with a gentle smile.

This was also the first time that Ji Jingqiu met Mu Shuai and the Buddha!
The man stopped Ji Jingqiu from saluting and said in a gentle voice, "I have cut off the causal line between that person and you. He will not be able to interfere with your causal line through the river of fate in a short time."

Ji Jingqiu's eyes narrowed, and he whispered, "Is that really Ji Shuai?"

The man nodded slightly.

Ji Jingqiu remained silent.

After a long while, he raised his head and asked, "In your opinion, senior, is my decision today right or wrong?"

The man didn't think there was anything wrong with Ji Jingqiu's choice, and even took it for granted.

"Bodhicitta" is the wisdom inherent in one's nature and the cause of becoming a Buddha, while "compassion" is the root of becoming a Buddha.

The latter is the key to supporting all kinds of merits and making them grow, just like the relationship between the roots and branches, leaves, flowers and fruits of a tree.

It's good to cherish the little beauties that you see around you.

"You are not wrong, he is wrong. He is still the same as before."

Mu Shitian sighed softly. Then, under the guidance of Mu Shuai, the two walked out of the temple and strolled on a street that led nowhere.

Along the way, Mu Shitian and Ji Jingqiu talked a lot, such as the basis and source of the current situation.

There are also some secrets from thousands of years ago, things that they really care about, such as the consensus of civilization.

In their eyes, maintaining "consensus" is a thousand times more important than temporary gains and losses.

When a civilization is faced with the situation where it can gain many benefits by sacrificing a certain person, some people will feel that this is "worth it", but they usually won't say it out loud. More people will subconsciously choose to remain silent, even if they think so in their hearts.

Because they know, either clearly or vaguely, that this should not be taken for granted.

So when that person stands up, many people will sincerely think that he is a hero.
But if everyone takes the idea of ​​"sacrificing one person for the sake of the collective" for granted, then the latter's sacrifice will no longer be worth praising.

This is what is called "consensus".

Just like studying hard, being filial to your parents, and being loyal to your partner.

Even if you may not practice it, you know from the bottom of your heart what is right, what is wrong, what is great and worth praising.

This is a set of ideas that is not 100% correct, but is definitely mainstream. It is also the bond that ensures people's hearts remain stable and do not slide downward.

When the consensus of a civilization has problems or even collapses, the public loses a unified standard of measurement and cannot distinguish right from wrong on many issues...all the order built on the basis of consensus in this civilization will begin to move towards destruction.
The ultimate result is that everything will go to extremes, people's hearts will become depressed, and rituals and music will collapse.

And at the moment when the ocean of the mind appears, the collective hearts of the people are downward and in constant turmoil...which will surely attract the "attention" of the ocean of the mind.

The emergence of the ocean of the mind has infinitely magnified the existence of all living beings. Even in this era where the strong dominate everything, it is like some kind of invisible shackles of the heaven, earth and universe.

For any civilization, the stability of social order and the peace of mind of the people are the first moat for the continuation of civilization.

In order to maintain this "moat", they made many efforts and put forward various concepts ten thousand years ago.

The Buddha’s lineage proposed that “all sentient beings have Buddha nature.”

Qin Tianfeng advocates "following the will of heaven and making up for the deficiencies in heaven".

Ke Qingxiu believed that "when the mind is in harmony with the vastness of the universe, all thoughts will disappear."

Yang Qingshan firmly believes that as long as there is a bit of chivalrous spirit in the world, even if the world is bad, there is still hope of redemption, because there are still people trying to do the right thing.

Li Shoucheng believed that "the beacon fire passes on the torch, and the torch passes on the embers". As long as the predecessors did not go astray and set a good example, no matter how messed up the later generations were, they would not go astray.

When it comes to He Donghuang, he believes that "I have reached the heights alone, and all living beings can follow my example." He wants to use his own power to pull the world and people's hearts upward.

As for not learning?

You try it.

The seven of them mean seven meridians, and if we count the other hundreds of meridians, it becomes even more complicated and confusing.

Ji Tianxing is not unaware of the importance of "consensus".

On the contrary, he knows this better than anyone else and knows where the bottom line is. That is why he is always so "unscrupulous".

But in their opinion, some things cannot be measured.

The human heart is not like the moon in the water. Once it is stirred, once the ripples fade away, it will be as clear as water and as bright as the moon again.

Once people's hearts fall, it is extremely difficult to pull them up.

In the eyes of Mu Shitian and even the four gods, the Federation already has Ji Tianxing, and there is no need for another Ji Tianxing.

As if he recalled many events from ten thousand years ago, Mu Shitian sighed softly.

For thousands of years, no one has had an easy life.

Some people took the initiative to throw themselves into the cage, some people silently carried the burden for thousands of years, and some people walked alone in the darkness for a long, long time...

Fortunately, there are always stars in the world to comfort people's hearts.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Mu Shitian felt a little emotional. He really wanted to tell Ji Jingqiu that, in fact, they had all seen his journey.

They were very happy to see that Ji Jingqiu gave the last sword strike to Zhuang Bu Tong, who had been dealing with himself and the God of Dreams for more than 30 years, in the sixth limit of sword strike.

I was also very happy to see Ji Jingqiu climb to the top of Baiyujing Pagoda. He was as young and full of vigor as they were in their days.

I am even happier that Ji Jingqiu has built a torch in the west and is willing to be a supporter of those men who are mending and helping the world...

finally.

Thousands of words just come together into one sentence.

Mu Shitian smiled and said:

"Ji Jingqiu, follow this hard journey and you will reach the morning star."

Then, someone paused and said meaningfully:

"I heard that in this generation, the Ji family has produced another warrior who has mastered the 'Heavenly Sword Chessing Diagram'."

Ji Jingqiu felt blessed in his heart.

If you can’t beat the old one for now, then beat the younger one.
