Chapter 268 There is no evil god in the world...
Gongsun Ce waved his hand, and the soil on both sides of the pit buried the roots of the Fusang sacred tree.
“Rain!”
The ability to call the wind and rain is a power that Gongsun Ce gains in his Azure Dragon form, but he can still use some of it in his human form.
At this moment, the rain clouds summoned by Gongsun Ce just covered the entire Fusang sacred tree.
However, in order to revive this sacred tree, a certain amount of energy supply is needed. It is unknown how long it will take for the Fusang sacred tree to recover itself.
Moreover, there is a baby girl on the Fusang sacred tree. It is estimated that the Fusang sacred tree is protecting this baby girl.
Therefore, in addition to repairing itself, the Fusang sacred tree also needs to provide energy for the baby girl.
This would extend the time it takes for the Fusang sacred tree to repair itself, and Gongsun Ce felt that this was not acceptable.
He cut his finger and dripped bright red blood onto the roots of the Fusang sacred tree. Under the wash of rain, Gongsun Ce's blood was evenly spread on all the roots of the Fusang sacred tree.
After being watered by Gongsun Ce's blood, the roots of the Fusang sacred tree began to spread wildly. They quickly drilled into the earth's veins like nimble snakes.
In the blink of an eye, these tree roots were closely connected with the earth veins and began to absorb the energy of the earth veins continuously.
Although the Pixiu, Qiao Xiaolong and Jingshen Formation have already absorbed the earth's energy, the earth's energy can still be restored as long as it is not consumed all at once.
Especially since Xianyang was the capital of the Qin Dynasty, the popularity of the people gathered there, and the speed at which the energy of the earth veins was being consumed had not yet recovered quickly.
As time went by, the branches and leaves of the Fusang sacred tree began to gradually change.
The branches of the Fusang sacred tree shook violently, as if trying to break free from some kind of restraints.
Immediately afterwards, the withered yellow leaves and branches fell down one after another.
Not long after, new buds began to grow on the branches of the Fusang sacred tree.
As time went by, the buds gradually grew into new branches and green leaves, and the entire Fusang sacred tree regained its vitality.
"Who are you?" Gongsun Ce floated in front of the young woman and asked about her identity.
"I am Zhulan, the daughter-in-law of the Great Witch, and the one on the tree is my daughter, Xiaoyu." Zhulan looked at Shilan, her eyes full of grief and concern, "She almost died when she was born, but fortunately she was blessed by the Fusang sacred tree and survived.
But Xiao Yu has since turned into this thing and is hung on the sacred tree. Please, General, let the Fusang sacred tree continue to protect Xiao Yu."
Gongsun Ce glanced at Xiao Yu, then took out the jade bottle containing Tongtian Pills from his arms, and poured the remaining Tongtian Pills on the roots of the Fusang sacred tree in one breath.
The Fusang Sacred Tree sensed the arrival of a magical medicine, and its roots quickly swallowed up the Tongtian Pills. With the Tongtian Pills as its energy source, the Fusang Sacred Tree completely revived.
Then, a golden line appeared above the Fusang sacred tree, slowly floated towards Feiyan, and then merged into Feiyan's lower abdomen.
Gongsun Ce could feel the tremendous vitality contained in the golden thread. Obviously, this was the return gift from the Fusang sacred tree and also a blessing to Yue'er.
In the future, Gongsun Ce will not have to worry about Yue'er's nutrition problem at all, because the Fusang sacred tree will help solve it.
Gongsun Ce walked up to Feiyan and asked, "Yan'er, have you finished taking the Tongtian Pills?"
"Not yet." Fei Yan shook her head, and then, with the support of Gongsun Ce, she walked to the front of the Fusang sacred tree.
Feiyan poured the Tongtian Pill in her hand into the roots of the Fusang sacred tree. After the Fusang sacred tree swallowed the Tongtian Pill, it separated another golden thread and merged into Feiyan's body.
But this time the chance of survival was to protect Feiyan. Gongsun Ce could imagine that Feiyan would not have to suffer the pain of childbirth in the future.
This is the reward from the Fusang sacred tree, and Gongsun Ce feels that he is suspected of insurance fraud.
Things that were not much different cheated the Fusang sacred tree of its two lives, one for his wife and one for his daughter.
Gongsun Ce took Feiyan's hand and placed it in his palm. Feeling the warmth of Feiyan's palm, Gongsun Ce had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
"Let's go back and give you a massage."
"What an honor!"
"As expected of you, you are from the Yin-Yang School. You know Yin and Yang." Gongsun Ce picked up Feiyan and walked towards Feiyan's room.
"What do you mean?" Feiyan put her arms around Gongsun Ce's neck, "It's obvious that it's not a good thing to say."
“It’s not a nice thing to say.”
Time flies and it is mid-May. The weather is getting hotter and some locusts begin to appear in the farmlands.
These are foreign locusts. They originally lived in the wilderness and came here in response to the breath of the Locust God. Their purpose is to cause panic and increase the power of the Locust God.
When the Locust God was born, the world had not yet declined, and those in the state of unity between man and nature were still walking on the earth. Ancient gods who were more powerful than the Locust God were still there, and he did not dare to show his head, after all, if he did, he would be killed in seconds.
After the ancient gods left, the existence of the state of unity between man and nature also left the world. As a result, the origin of the world was lost and the world began to degenerate.
The Locust God could only exist on the other side of the world for a moment. If the Qin world had not begun to recover, he would probably have gradually disappeared.
The people in the Qin Dynasty believed in gods and thought that locust plagues were caused by the locust god. Therefore, some people worshipped the locust god and prayed to him to take away the disaster.
Therefore, the Locust God can still exist and begin to gradually increase his power.
However, after two waves of weakening at the hands of Gongsun Ce, the Locust God no longer has the combat power of his peak period.
Therefore, Gongsun Ce's third wave of weakening of the Locust God is coming.
Large numbers of locusts gathered together will produce toxins in their bodies, which is one of the reasons why locust plagues are so rampant.
Birds and poultry that eat locusts will choose to avoid them when they see large numbers of locusts gathering together because they are afraid of the toxins, and may even fear being eaten by the locusts.
The overwhelming locusts will no longer eat crops, but all the flowers, plants, trees, and even birds and animals along the way.
Insect nets cannot catch all the locusts, fire cannot burn them all, and if poison is sprayed to kill the insects, the locusts will develop resistance to the poison.
Therefore, the best way to kill insects is to raise poultry to peck at the locusts and kill the adult and larvae in a concentrated manner before the locusts gather in large numbers.
Before the locusts break out of the ground, burn the straw, sprinkle quicklime and water the soil to suffocate or scald the locust eggs.
These methods are difficult to implement, as it costs money to buy quicklime and raise poultry, and straw needs to be fed to cattle and sheep.
But these were not a big problem for Gongsun Ce. Chicken eggs and duck eggs could be rented out, and he would get three eggs in return for renting one egg.
Or he could return chickens and ducks. After Gongsun Ce obtained adult chickens and ducks, he would deduct the cost of the chicken and duck eggs and give the farmers a certain amount of money.
It can also be considered a way to make money, and since farmers raise the birds in free range, they don’t have to worry about losing all their money due to a large-scale bird flu outbreak, which disperses the risk.
At the same time, Gongsun Ce began to purchase locusts.
After three weakenings, Gongsun Ce was confident that he could easily defeat the Locust God without any effort.
Gongsun Ce is not a hide-and-seek player, but he never plays in a situation where he cannot win.
As time passed, it soon became June and the scorching sun was scorching the earth.
In this scorching summer, the Locust God is about to be awakened. This locust god who has been sleeping for a thousand years is about to wake up from his dream.
The Locust God, as the god of locusts, possesses an extremely huge body.
Once his wings are spread, they can easily cover a city.
His power comes from the fear of all living beings in the world. Whenever locusts are rampant and people fall into panic, his power will increase.
However, when the summer just began to wake up, the Locust God discovered a serious problem - the number of locusts was far from enough.
Gongsun Ce's three waves of weakening of the Locust God successfully put the Locust God into a state of rage.
He roared and summoned locusts, trying to use them to devour all the flowers, plants and trees in the world, causing panic among the people and thereby increasing his power.
However, no matter how he summoned, the number of locusts could never form a force that covered the sky and the sun.
In anger, the Locust God decided to take action himself and cause panic among the people.
Xianyang, as the humanitarian center at the moment, naturally became the best place for the locust god to descend.
He appeared from the sky above Xianyang, and his huge body almost covered the entire sky of Xianyang city.
The sunlight was blocked by His figure, and the city was suddenly plunged into darkness and panic.
The people fled back home and watched the locust god in the sky through the cracks in the doors, their hearts filled with fear and anxiety.
The Locust God proudly absorbed the power brought by fear, and his body became even bigger with the nourishment of power.
However, at this moment, Gongsun Ce took action in time.
Gongsun Ce's imperial Confucian image suddenly appeared in the sky above Xianyang. The golden imperial crown tassels and the golden-red robes sparkled in the sun, making him particularly eye-catching.
"This punch is the Merciless Face-Breaking Fist. Please appreciate it."
Gongsun Ce's Dharma image suddenly appeared, and then he rushed towards the Locust God and punched out. The golden fist shadow drew a dazzling trajectory in the air.
When the Locust God saw this, he was not afraid at all. He thought it was just a Dharma image, and he had seen it before.
However, when Gongsun Ce's fist hit his face, he realized that he was wrong.
The power of Gongsun Ce's punch was beyond his imagination.
He only felt a huge force coming, and his whole body flew backwards involuntarily.
The Locust God was knocked away by Gongsun Ce's punch, and his figure drew a long arc in the air.
He fell heavily to the ground, causing a strong shock wave and a cloud of dust.
The strong shock wave followed the earth veins to Xianyang City. Gongsun Ce threw out the Dragon Scale Sword in time. The Dragon Scale Sword fell over Xianyang City, and the cage formation suddenly took shape.
The cage separates heaven and earth, and naturally can also isolate the shock waves caused by the locust god's landing.
Gongsun Ce's Dharma image did not stop. He flashed and rushed towards the Locust God again.
This time, he stretched out both hands, and his golden fists pressed down on the Locust God like mountains.
Just before Gongsun Ce's fists were about to land on the Locust God, the Locust God suddenly gathered all his strength and summoned countless illusory locusts.
These locusts quickly gathered into a shield in front of the Locust God, and a strange poisonous gas filled the shield.
The Locust God was confident that even if Gongsun Ce's Dharma image could break the shield, he would inevitably be harmed by the poisonous gas.
The poison gas from these locusts is not ordinary. It is the poison of insect pests that damages flowers, plants, trees and all living things.
Even the Dharmakāya would find it difficult to resist, and this poisonous gas would also flow along the Dharmakāya and harm its owner, which is extremely vicious.
However, Gongsun Ce had already seen through the locust god's thoughts and guessed that the locust shield was unusual. A pure aura condensed on his Dharma image, and this aura flowed on his fists like a clear spring.
Just before the Dharmadhatu's fists touched the locust shield, the pure air suddenly dissolved the poison of the insect pests.
Immediately afterwards, Gongsun Ce's fists, with the force of thunder, hit the locust shield hard.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the locust shield shattered like paper in front of Gongsun Ce's Dharma image.
Gongsun Ce Fashang’s fists continued to move forward with full force and directly hit the body of the Locust God.
The Locust God was hit by the two fists and flew backwards.
Its body drew a long curve on the ground, like a large steamroller pushing the uneven road surface.
The trees on the ground collapsed one after another under the impact of the Locust God, leaving a mess.
The small hills were flattened by the body of the locust god, and in the blink of an eye, a wide and flat dirt road appeared outside the city of Xianyang.
This dirt road can be regarded as the most perfect official road in the Qin Dynasty world.
Because the Locust God is heavy enough, no matter how many horses pull huge rocks to crush the ground, they cannot achieve the same effect as the Locust God crushing the ground.
The locust god finally stopped when it was about to approach the Wei River.
At this time, apart from the external injuries on the Locust God's body, there were no other visible injuries. For the Locust God, external injuries were not a big deal and He recovered quickly.
However, Gongsun Ce's Dharma image carries the spirit of Confucianism, the spirit of imperial way, and the spirit of purity.
The Confucian and Taoist spirit restrains the supernatural powers, the imperial spirit restrains all evil gods, and the pure spirit dispels the panic from the locust god.
It can be said that Gongsun Ce’s punch caused three kinds of damage to the Locust God.
He struggled to stand up, but the three kinds of energy were raging in his body. Before the influence of the three kinds of energy was eliminated, he had no strength to get up and could only lie weakly on the ground.
Gongsun Ce's Dharma image followed closely behind and then his hands tightly grasped the wings of the Locust God.
Gongsun Ce controlled the Dharma Image and tore it hard. With a "hiss", the front and hind wings of the Locust God were completely torn apart. From then on, the Locust God lost his two pairs of wings.
The Locust God let out a painful wail, his voice filled with fear and pleading for mercy.
Gongsun Ce did not waver in his determination to kill the Locust God because of his plea for mercy.
Any living creature that is attacked will feel pain, fear, or reveal its flaws, but the Locust God will not feel that way.
But in the eyes of the Locust God: Gongsun Ce is still chasing me, damn it!
The Dharmakāya grabbed the Locust God's hind legs again, and after a "hiss", the Locust God's hind legs were torn off.
The Locust God's own strength is comparable to the first level of the realm of unity between man and nature, but he has no other way of flying except using his front and hind wings.
Tearing off the locust god's front and hind wings means destroying the locust god's ability to fly.
The Locust God's hind legs can also give him the ability to jump, so Gongsun Ce once again targeted the Locust God's hind legs.
The Locust God tried his best to struggle and avoid the attack of Gongsun Ce's Dharma Image, but the Locust God had no way to escape.
Gongsun Ce then controlled the Dharmakāya to dismantle the Locust God's middle and front feet, thus ensuring that the Locust God completely lost the ability to escape.
At this time, the students of Tongming Academy were depicting Gongsun Ce fighting hard, or in other words, crushing the Locust God.
This was another part of Gongsun Ce's plan to weaken the Locust God - to eliminate the people's fear of the Locust God.
As the students of Tongming Academy described the scene before them, pictures of the Locust God being beaten appeared one after another.
And Gongsun Ce's final step in breaking the belief in the locust god is about to come.
At this moment, Gongsun Ce had successfully dismantled the locust god's front wings, hind wings, front legs, middle legs and hind legs.
As a result, the evil god who was about to wreak havoc on the earth could only lie powerlessly on the ground, allowing Gongsun Ce to manipulate him.
Although the Locust God was seriously injured, there was still a gleam of madness and unwillingness in his eyes.
It knows that it is powerless to save the situation, but that doesn't mean it will give up.
A ruthless determination surged in the heart of the Locust God, and he decided to make a last-ditch effort at the last moment, releasing all the insect poison in his body into the Wei River.
As long as it succeeds, it will surely poison a large number of people, causing great panic, and thus gaining more power, so it will not be in vain.
As long as the faith in the Locust God is not eliminated, He can still be resurrected with the help of the power of legend. This is the Locust God's greatest confidence.
The Locust God then began to mobilize the remaining strength in his body to continuously compress and condense the poison of the pests.
Its body began to emit a strange and terrifying aura.
Gongsun Ce naturally also felt this breath. The insect poison in the locust god's body would kill anyone else if they drank it, and would cause injury if they touched it.
Although Gongsun Ce has pure energy protecting his body and is not afraid of the poison of insect pests, it is still a trouble to let the locust god spray the poison of insect pests.
Just as the Locust God was about to spray the insect poison into the Wei River, Gongsun Ce's Dharma image suddenly moved.
He rushed towards the Locust God like a flash of lightning and picked up this evil god who had no power to resist.
Immediately afterwards, Gongsun Ce's Dharma image swung out a punch, and the fist with pure energy hit the Locust God hard.
With this punch, the insect poison in the locust god's body seemed to be cleared away by an invisible force and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
The Locust God let out a shrill scream, his voice filled with despair and fear.
It never thought that Gongsun Ce could break its last move so easily.
Gongsun Ce did not give the Locust God any chance to breathe.
He controlled the Dharma image to lift the Locust God high up, and then strode towards Xianyang with big strides.
The Locust God struggled and screamed in the air, but its voice seemed so weak and powerless in front of Gongsun Ce's Dharma image.
Outside the gate of Xianyang City, Gongsun Ce’s image was standing at the door holding the Locust God upside down.
The people in Xianyang City walked out of their homes and came to the streets, watching from afar Gongsun Ce's imperial Confucian image and the struggling locust god in his hands.
They talked a lot and exclaimed in amazement, but Gongsun Ce's Dharma image ignored the discussions and exclamations.
He threw the Locust God heavily to the ground. With the protection of the Dragon Scale Sword, the shock wave did not reach the city of Xianyang, but the deafening sound of the collision reached the ears of the people of Xianyang.
Gongsun Ce's image stood outside the gate of Xianyang, overlooking the locust god below and the people in the city.
He used the power of heaven and earth to bless his voice, ensuring that all the people of Xianyang could hear his voice.
Then he slowly said: "My fellow citizens, the evil god before you is the locust god who once brought you endless disasters.
He controls locusts to devour crops and even all flowers, plants and trees. If there are birds or beasts blocking the locusts' way, they will not let them go.
I know that many of you secretly or even openly offer sacrifices to the Locust God, praying to him to take back the locust plague.
But I want to tell you that offering sacrifices to the locust god is useless. His power comes from your fear of locusts.
Now I have defeated and subdued it, and it will never again threaten your crops.
In fact, locust plagues can be prevented in advance by simply taking protective measures.
In order to prevent you from being afraid of the Locust God anymore, today I, the Imperial Confucian Gongsun Ce, and King Zheng of Qin will supervise the execution of the Locust God to serve as a warning to others.
Where is Qin Wang Zheng? "
"Dong dong dong."
Heavy footsteps were heard, and Ying Zheng drove the Demon God of War slowly to the city gate.
Ying Zheng's voice came through the amplifying talisman set by Gongsun Ce on the Military Demon God. He said: "I, the King of Qin, will kill the Locust God today, destroy the Locust God's temple, and eliminate the danger of the Locust God. I hope the people of the world will witness it."
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the land outside Xianyang City, bringing some coolness to the sultry Xianyang.
Gongsun Ce controlled the Dharma image and raised his fist, punching the locust god on the tail. Under the tremendous force, the locust's tail was shattered.
The Locust God let out a shrill wail that echoed in the empty area outside the city, allowing the people of the entire Xianyang city to hear the Locust God's wail.
But Gongsun Ce had no mercy at all. He only knew that the Locust God had done many evil things, controlling locusts to eat crops, and indirectly killing too many people.
Then Ying Zheng controlled the Soldier Demon God to punch the Locust God, breaking the penultimate section of the Locust God's body.
The locust's body structure is divided into eleven sections, and Gongsun Ce and Ying Zheng could just attack one section each.
It is very hurtful and insulting.
With one punch after another, the Dharma image controlled by Gongsun Ce and the Demon God of War controlled by Ying Zheng broke the body of the Locust God piece by piece.
With every punch, the Locust God would let out a more miserable wail, but Gongsun Ce and Ying Zheng remained unmoved and just had no expression on their faces.
The people around were terrified, but also felt a bit pleased.
They knew that Gongsun Ce and Ying Zheng were eliminating harm for them and creating a world without the Locust God for them.
Under the fists of Gongsun Ce's Dharmakā and the Demon God of War controlled by Ying Zheng, the Locust God was completely shattered into pieces.
The evil god who once controlled locusts to wreak havoc on the earth is now left with only debris on the ground.
The people cheered one after another, and they looked at the military demon controlled by Gongsun Ce and Ying Zheng, with only excitement in their eyes.
At the moment of the Locust God's death, the statue of the Locust God outside the city of Xianyang became the target of the people.
They rushed out of the city in anger and began to smash the statues that once worshipped the locust god.
They no longer believed in the locust god, and they wanted to completely erase this evil god from their lives.
The statue of the locust god was pushed down and smashed. The anger of the people was like a volcanic eruption and could not be contained. They wanted to completely eradicate this evil god who had brought them fear and disaster.
Gongsun Ce and Ying Zheng stood outside the city and watched all this from afar.
Gongsun Ce knew that his actions had initially dispelled the belief in the locust god, bringing a new beginning to the world, the beginning of dispelling the belief in wild gods and evil gods.
Soon, the news and images of Gongsun Ce beating the Locust God began to spread throughout the world, and people began to give up their faith in the Locust God.
Statues of the locust god were destroyed all over the world, and at the same time other statues of other gods were also destroyed.
