Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 216: Kill the Four Demons in Public, Slash the West with Tongtian

“Jin Ling, take these four monsters back to Jin’ao Island, summon the followers of my Jiejiao, and execute them in public to serve as a warning to others.” After saying this, Tongtian’s holy power disappeared.

The four demons of Chang'er Dingguangxian were already frightened at this time. They never expected that Tongtian Patriarch would be so cruel that he would kill them directly and not even leave them the chance to reincarnate.

Jin Ling glanced at the four monsters, formed seals with his hands, and pinched the magic formula to seal the magic power of the four monsters. Then, with the authority of Emperor Ziwei, he condensed the power of the stars into a chain, tied up the four monsters, and carried them back to Jiejiao.

On the way back to Jiejiao, Chang'er Dingguangxian crushed the Bodhi seed that was sealed in the sea of consciousness by the two Western saints.

As soon as the Bodhi seed was broken, the two saints from the West felt it at the same time.

"Brother, the Bodhi seed of Chang'er Dingguang Immortal is broken." Zhunti opened his eyes and said in a serious tone.

Upon hearing this, Jie Yin didn't say much, but raised his hand and counted with his fingers.

"Alas!" Jie Yin sighed and said, "Junior brother, Chang Er Ding Guang Xian and the other three attendants of the Seven Immortals devoured a large number of human beings, which violated the teachings of Jiejiao. Tong Tian personally investigated the matter. I'm afraid they can't escape this time."

"Brother, the seven immortals who serve the Jiejiao are all extremely talented. Can we..."

"It's not easy to do something under Tongtian's nose."

"What if we ask the Jiejiao disciples to plead for mercy and save the souls of the four people?"

"That's worth a try."

Afterwards, Jie Yin used his magical power to attain enlightenment in dreams and explained things to the four demons in the dream.

The supernatural powers of the saints were difficult to detect even though Jin Ling had the honorable position of Ziwei Emperor.

Soon, Jin Ling brought the four monsters back to Jin Ling Island and then beat the fishing drum.

As soon as the fishing drum sounded, all the disciples of Jiejiao, no matter what they were doing, rushed to the front of Biyou Palace as soon as possible.

As soon as the disciples arrived, they saw the Long-eared Dingguang Immortal, the Qiu-shou Immortal, the Lingya Immortal, and the Jinguang Immortal kneeling on the ground.

All the disciples were shocked. One must know that the status of the Seven Immortals in Jiejiao is second only to the four direct disciples and they are deeply trusted by Master Tongtian. Now that four of the Seven Immortals are kneeling here, it is definitely an earth-shattering event for Jiejiao.

The four demons including Chang'er Dingguangxian already knew that they could not escape the blame, but what Jieyin had just said in his dream gave them a glimmer of hope to survive, so the four of them looked at Duobao, Wudang, and the remaining three who were accompanying the Seven Fairies, their eyes full of pleading.

Qiu Shouxian trembled and said, "Big Brother, please save us..."

Long-eared Dingguang Immortal even said: "Big Brother, we are guilty of violating the teacher's order, but the crime is not punishable by death. Moreover, the human race is just an ant. The Golden Spirit Holy Mother exaggerated and asked the teacher to severely punish us brothers. This move is clearly to exclude dissidents... Please save us, Big Brother!"

The supernatural power that Tongtian had just used to attain enlightenment in a dream told the four people in the dream that Duobao was the disciple Tongtian trusted and valued the most.

Duobao is not only Tongtian's first disciple, but also the person recognized by Tongtian as the one in charge of the Jiejiao orthodoxy.

Only he can influence Tongtian's judgment and give them a chance of survival.

So the four demons placed all their hopes on Taoist Duobao and even tried to sow discord among them, hoping that he would plead for them and let Taoist Master Tongtian show mercy and spare their lives.

Duobao's heart sank when he heard this, for he knew very well that the crimes of these four immortals were not as simple as they said. However, they had already entered the Jiejiao sect when they accompanied the Seven Immortals in Kunlun Mountain, and had been following their master for dozens of epochs. Tongtian could not bear to see them being severely punished and ending up dead, so he wanted them to at least leave a wisp of their soul behind so that they could have a chance to reincarnate.

In addition, Chang'er Dingguangxian and others in Jiejiao have always followed the lead of Duobao Taoist. They are his loyal brothers and most staunch supporters. Duobao feels that it is reasonable for him to speak up and plead for them.

Of course, Duobao was not an unreasonable person. He also felt that Chang'er Dingguangxian was guilty of cannibalism for the sake of satisfying his appetite.

In Duobao's opinion, they had already escaped from the cycle of reincarnation and their cultivation had reached the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

When a cultivator reaches the Golden Immortal stage, he has reached the state of immortality and does not need to eat to fill his stomach. He only needs to absorb the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and the moon.

This cannibalism is purely their personal preference.

The human race is favored by heaven and earth and is the appointed protagonist of heaven and earth. Since the war between the wizards and the liches, the pattern of heaven and earth has changed drastically, and the human race is now the most important race in the prehistoric world.

They were able to cultivate to the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal. They should understand cause and effect and know when to advance and retreat. Why did it come to this?
The actions of Chang'er Dingguangxian and others were truly unwise.

In addition to this, there is another reason. Duobao was once the teacher of the Emperor, and he has a good impression of the human race and is willing to consider issues from the human race's perspective.

To sum up, Duobao felt that Chang'er Dingguangxian and the others should have their cultivation abandoned and should die, but considering that they had been serving their master since early on, a wisp of their soul should be left behind so that they could have a chance to reincarnate.

However, some disciples in the Jiejiao who were close to Chang'er Dingguangxian felt that although the human race was the protagonist of the world, their number was far more than just billions.

How can one compare to the dignity of a saint's disciple for the sake of a few mere humans? Why did Senior Sister Jin Ling react so strongly this time? Could it be that, as Chang'er Dingguangxian said, she was intentionally targeting him and wanted to use this to attack Senior Brother Duobao in order to increase her voice in Jiejiao?
But then again, there are only a few disciples in the sect who have such thoughts, and they are all close to the Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal. Normal disciples of the Jiejiao would not think like this. Duobao himself also knows that the matter of the Four Immortals should be given priority at this moment.

Duobao was thinking about how to plead with Master Tongtian at this time. Jin Ling turned around and glanced at Duobao and asked, "Big Brother, do you want to plead with Master?"

After Jin Ling revealed his thoughts, Duobao smiled awkwardly and said, "Junior sister, I think Chang Er Ding Guang Xian and the others shouldn't have their souls torn apart. At least a trace of their spirits should be preserved so that they have a chance to reincarnate and cultivate again."

Jin Ling frowned when she heard this. She had just heard the crying of Chang'er Dingguangxian and the other three, and she knew that Duobao would definitely plead for mercy.

In fact, Jin Ling could easily kill all four beasts with his thunderous power, but taking action at this time might cause dissatisfaction from the eldest senior brother.

Jin Ling and Duo Bao entered the sect one after the other. They supported each other and although they were not biological siblings, their relationship was better than that of biological siblings.

So Jin Ling sighed and said, "Big Brother, please do as you please!"

After saying that, Jin Ling attacked brazenly, and with just one strike, he shaved off the cultivation of Chang Er Ding Guang Xian, Qiu Shou Xian, Ling Ya Xian, and Jin Guang Xian, and beat the four beasts back to their original form. Then Jin Ling mercilessly skinned and pulled out the tendons of the four beasts, leaving only their spirits.

The power of the stars enveloped the souls of these four beasts. As long as Jin Ling had a thought, their souls would be shattered and they would never have the chance to come back.

Duobao's face changed drastically when he saw this. He did not dare to hesitate for a moment, nor did he care about how to organize his words. He knelt on the ground and said, "Master, although Chang'er Dingguang Immortal, Qiushou Immortal, Lingya Immortal, and Jinguang Immortal made serious mistakes, they have contributed a lot to Jiejiao.

Moreover, the road of cultivation is rugged and difficult, with many hardships. The four immortals were able to achieve the realm of Taiyi Jinxian, and they also went through countless disasters. I hope that Master will remember their past achievements and show leniency and give them a light sentence, at least leaving a trace of their souls and giving them a chance to start over."

What Taoist Duobao said was agreed by many disciples of Jiejiao. Jiejiao was famous for its teaching without discrimination and accepting all living beings. If a disciple was to be killed because of a single mistake, it would probably discourage the disciples.

Moreover, the way of cultivation is to cultivate the mind. If the four immortals can realize their mistakes through punishment and reform themselves, wouldn’t that be better?

Duobao waited for the decision of Master Tongtian, feeling uneasy in his heart. He was not sure whether Master Tongtian would listen to him and spare the lives of Chang'er Dingguangxian and the others.

But no matter what the result is, Duobao has tried his best. What Chang'er Dingguangxian and the others did was indeed excessive, and it is no longer something Duobao can intervene in. The most he can do is to beg for mercy. As for their fate, they can only listen to the leader.

After the Golden Hoop Immortal and the Pilu Immortal exchanged a glance, they knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Teacher, please be merciful and give them a chance to reincarnate again! Although the four of them slaughtered the human race, they did not wipe out the human soul, so give them a chance!

Wuyunxian sighed and knelt down as well, but he didn't say much. He had been serving the Seven Immortals as brothers for so many years and he couldn't bear to see them being severely punished. He knew that the teacher's orders were as heavy as Mount Tai and could not be violated, but the brotherhood was also important and he couldn't just sit back and watch.

Upon seeing this, about 30% of the disciples of Jiejiao also knelt down.

When Zhao Gongming saw this, he thought to himself, with the senior brother and others begging for mercy, given the character of the master, he would probably want to keep a wisp of the souls of these four monsters.

Zhao Gongming did not want to see them escape. When he had a small gathering with the three Xiaos before, Yunxiao had said to him: "Brother Gongming, Jiejiao does not have a magic treasure that can suppress its luck. Jiejiao's luck is closely related to the moral character of its disciples. If there are people with bad morals in Jiejiao, and they rely on the name of Jiejiao to do inhumane things, it is very likely to affect Jiejiao's luck."

Thinking of this, Zhao Gongming bowed in the direction of the Biyou Palace and said, "Master, please allow me to report that because of your love, I have obtained the honorable position of the Great Emperor Gou Chen, one of the Four Heavenly Emperors. With this honorable position, I can see the destiny of our Jiejiao more clearly.

These four beasts have brought disaster to the human world and have affected the fortune of our Jie Sect. If we do not punish them severely this time, I am afraid that other disciples will follow suit, and then the fortune of our Jie Sect will decline again and again. I hope Master will think twice."

After listening to Zhao Gongming's words, Holy Mother Wu Dang nodded repeatedly. She had been traveling among the human race in the north of the prehistoric world for many years and had a good impression of the human race.

In addition, the Holy Mother Wu Dang has always been known for her calmness in the Jiejiao, and she knows the importance of religious rules. If the four people are not severely punished, it may be difficult to control other disciples if they commit the same crime in the future. If the master forgives these four people lightly this time, other disciples will surely follow suit in the future, and the order of the Jiejiao will be in chaos.

So the Holy Mother Wu Dang said in a deep voice: "Master, you must be careful about this matter. If you don't punish severely, I'm afraid it will be difficult to control the disciples in the future..."

At this time, Master Tongtian in the Biyou Palace closed his eyes slightly and listened to the argument of his disciples.

The Patriarch Tongtian did not let Jin Ling execute the four beasts on the spot, but brought them back. His purpose was to see how the disciples of Jiejiao would react to what the four monsters had done.

It now seems that 30% of the disciples in Jiejiao believe that what Chang'er Dingguangxian and his companions did was not a big deal.

Tongtian sighed and thought to himself: "What Daoist Fellow Bai Jing said is indeed true. There are quite a few disciples in my Jiejiao who do not take the human race and all living beings seriously!"

Thinking of this, Master Tongtian’s mind moved, and the holy power descended.

All the disciples of Jiejiao outside the Biyou Palace knelt down.

“I already know what you said and what you asked for, but what Chang’er Dingguang Immortal, Qiu Shou Immortal, Lingya Immortal, and Jin Guang Immortal did is unforgivable.

Moreover, Chang Er Ding Guang Xian not only slaughtered living beings, but also secretly colluded with the Western Church. Qiu Shou Xian, Ling Ya Xian, and Jin Guang Xian did not know his identity and were bewitched by him. It is understandable that they could leave a trace of his true spirit. "

After saying this, Master Tongtian waved his hand, and the souls of the three beasts, the Qiushou Immortal, the Lingya Immortal, and the Jinguang Immortal, dissipated, leaving only a wisp of true spirit.

When Dong Wanggong blew himself up, the Taoist Ancestor also saved a wisp of his true spirit. This wisp of true spirit was nurtured for several epochs in the initial stage of the Six Paths of Reincarnation before it had the opportunity to be reincarnated.

Dong Wanggong has been reincarnated countless times now, but he has never had the opportunity to embark on the path of immortality, let alone cultivate to the level of Daluo and awaken the memories of his past lives.

Considering the situations of Qiushou Immortal, Lingya Immortal, Jinguang Immortal and Dongwanggong, if nothing unexpected happens, even if these three demons can be reincarnated, it will be difficult for them to have the chance to rebuild their great ways.

When the soul of Chang'er Dingguangxian saw that Tongtian Sect Master did not leave even a wisp of his soul to protect the three monsters, and only left their true spirits, his face suddenly changed.

"teacher"

"I am not your teacher," Tongtian said, raising his hand and pointing, and the sea of consciousness of the Long-eared Dingguang Immortal was exposed to the Jiejiao immortals.

Previously, the Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal crushed the Bodhi seed in his sea of consciousness, but the many seals that Jie Yin had set up to cover up the Bodhi seed were still there. Once the Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal's sea of consciousness opened, the disciples of the Jiejiao sect all saw the sealing spells in his sea of consciousness.

This sealing technique is not uncommon in the ancient times. Many people know it. It is a magical power passed down from the Taoist ancestor.

However, there is a ray of holy power hidden in this sealing technique. This holy power has the effect of shielding the secrets of heaven. Even if Master Tongtian personally investigates it, it is very easy to overlook the existence of this technique. This is why Chang'er Dingguangxian was able to hide in Jiejiao for so many years without being discovered.

Seeing that his identity was exposed, Chang Er Ding Guang Xian begged for mercy: "Teacher, please spare my life! I was forced to do this!"

Tongtian shook his head and pointed with one finger, and the Chang'er Dingguang Immortal died instantly.

Tongtian's voice sounded again: "From now on, all my Jiejiao disciples who betray the sect and do not respect the teachings of the Jiejiao will be like this."

After Tongtian finished speaking, his mind moved, and the Qingping Sword appeared in his hand. Tongtian raised his right hand, the Qingping Sword was unsheathed, and he slashed towards the direction of Mount Xumi.

The dazzling sword light tore through the space and arrived above Mount Sumeru in the blink of an eye. Zhunti's face changed drastically, and he quickly transformed himself into a six-foot-tall golden body, intending to resist the sword light that reached the sky.
