Chapter 98 This is an opportunity to become a saint (please subscribe)
After Lord Haotian left, Yang Ling immediately found Master Xuandu, firstly to say goodbye to him, and secondly to ask him to help take care of the two children.

Speaking of this, Yang Ling felt a little embarrassed.

After all, he was always out during this period, and entrusted the safety of his two children to Master Xuandu.

Asking a Daluo Jinxian to help take care of the child is probably unique in the Three Realms.

However, after hearing Yang Ling's intention, Xuan Du shook his head and said apologetically: "I was just about to say goodbye to my junior brother... I have to continue traveling in the human world, and I can't let the evil cultivators do evil among the human race!"

When Yang Ling heard this, he immediately understood that the other party must have been stimulated by the incident involving General Xu, so he planned to continue traveling around the world.

In this situation, it would be difficult for Yang Ling to stop it.

"But you don't have to worry, Junior Brother." Master Xuandu changed the subject and said with a smile, "I know Junior Brother will have to travel far away often in the future, so I hired a good guard to look after your house."

Before he finished speaking, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky, and a huge blue bull with flat horns broke through the void and landed in the yard.

The blue bull was huge in size but had a gentle demeanor. Its horns seemed to be made of bronze, its fur was blue-black, and there was a towering horn growing in the middle of its forehead.

The four hooves were covered with a faint green light, and when they landed on the ground, even the air seemed to shake.

After the Flat-Horned Green Ox landed, it first nodded to the Great Master Xuandu, then turned to look at Yang Ling and bowed to him as well.

"You have seen this flat-horned blue bull. It was originally the teacher's mount, but the teacher never shows up, so it is idle at home. I will invite it to live in your house for a while."

When Yang Ling heard this, the stone in his heart fell to the ground instantly.

He was well aware of the extraordinary nature of the flat-horned blue ox.

With such a saintly mount guarding your home, are you still afraid that the villains will dare to come and cause trouble?

At that moment, he bowed to Master Xuandu and expressed his sincere gratitude.

He didn't expect that Master Xuandu was still thinking about his two children before leaving. He was deeply moved by this friendship.

Then he clasped his fists towards the Flat-horned Blue Ox and said, "I was given a ride last time by Daoyou, but I didn't have time to thank you... By the way, what kind of residence do you like? Brick and tile structure, or pure wood? Are there any particular requirements for food and bedding...

I don't have any other intentions, I just want to treat you well. If you have any requests for food, drink, accommodation and transportation, please feel free to ask. Don't be polite to me!"

The blue bull with horns had a flashing look in his eyes, and spoke in human language, saying in a muffled voice: "I am an old bull, used to living in the open air. As long as I have a cowshed that can shelter me from the wind and rain, it will be fine. If it can be a little quieter, it will be even better."

"I understand. When I get back later, I will ask someone to buy the courtyard next to it, and then rebuild it according to your wishes..."

Yang Ling was all smiles, he liked people who had such requests.

"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

Master Xuandu glanced at Yang Ling, and without seeing him move, the two of them instantly came to a world of only black and white, like an ink painting.

Yang Ling looked around curiously, then looked at Master Xuandu in confusion, not understanding why the other party brought him here.

The gaze of the great master Xuandu was as deep as a pool. He asked softly, "Junior brother, do you know the origin of your Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Gourd?"

Yang Ling was shocked. He knew that the Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Gourd was very important, but he didn't expect that even the Great Master Xuandu would attach so much importance to it.

He nodded slightly, "I got this gourd by chance. I only know that it seems to be something that belonged to the powerful Red Cloud Ancestor in ancient times."

“That’s right.” Master Xuandu nodded, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes: “Your Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Gourd is not an ordinary spiritual treasure, it is related to the whereabouts of the Hongmeng Purple Qi.

You may not quite understand what Hongmeng Purple Qi means.

That is the greatest treasure from the beginning of the world. Any practitioner who can obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi has the opportunity to achieve enlightenment and become a saint!

You must not show this treasure to outsiders.

Once the news gets out, it will surely attract a lot of covetousness, including some quasi-saints who may be tempted by it.

With your current level of cultivation, you are not yet capable of protecting this treasure."

Yang Ling nodded in agreement.

Master Xuandu’s reminder was very timely.

He only thought that this treasure was a top-grade spiritual treasure, but ignored the secret behind it.

The Jiujiu Soul-Dispersing Gourd itself is not worthy of the covetousness of those quasi-saints, but the Hongmeng Purple Qi that may be hidden in it can definitely make many quasi-saints willing to risk offending the Saint Taiqing in order to snatch it!

Although no one can be sure that the Jiujiu Sanhun Gourd really contains the Hongmeng Purple Qi, but even if there is only a slight possibility, it is enough to attract people!
This danger must be prevented!
……

After returning home, Yang Ling stayed alone in the study for a long time, sorting out some news sent back from Chaoge.

He moved his business to Chaoge several years ago, mainly to get information so that he could respond in time if there was any sign of trouble.

To this end, he paid a high price to buy a Qingji from the demon-catching Taoist priest, and raised it in a shop in Chaoge to use it to transmit messages to Guanjiangkou.

This is a kind of zejing, humanoid, only a dozen centimeters tall, wearing yellow clothes and a yellow hat, riding a yellow car, and is good at earth escape, able to travel tens of thousands of miles a day. This little demon is harmless to humans, and is used to send messages quickly and with high confidentiality, so many dignitaries like to keep a few of them at home.

Even in the Shang army, Qingji was often used to deliver urgent reports from the border.

After reading the news sent by Chaoge Shop, Yang Ling used his finger as a pen to write down the names of key figures in the air, recording their current movements:
Yuan Futong - started an uprising in Beihai several months ago.

Wen Zhong - According to news from Chaoge, the current Grand Tutor had led a large army to Beihai to quell the rebellion two months ago.

Emperor Xin - It is said that he led civil and military officials to the Nuwa Palace to burn incense half a month ago. When returning to the palace, all the civil and military officials looked flustered and kept silent about the matter of burning incense and praying for blessings!

……

Everything was pretty much as he remembered.

While he was struggling with the two Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, the great calamity of the Conferred Gods had already slowly begun.

So next...

Su Hu's rebellion against the Shang Dynasty, the nine-tailed fox entering the palace, Jiang Ziya's descent from the mountain and other familiar scenes will all be staged one by one in Chaoge.

Disciples of the Chan and Jie sects will appear one after another in this catastrophe.

It’s just that the current disciples of Jiejiao may still be dreaming of becoming the greatest sect in the prehistoric world, and think that they can escape this catastrophe by closing their caves and silently reciting Huangting.

Little did they know that the disciples of the Chan Sect who came from the same Xuanmen as them were actively preparing to deal with this catastrophe.

They are sharpening their knives, ready to kill at any time!

And these disciples of the Chan Sect were unaware that while the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind. The real winner in the end of this catastrophe would actually be the Western Sect, which is located in a remote and inconspicuous place!
It was because Yuanshi Tianzun asked the two saints of the Western Religion for help during the great catastrophe. As a result, these two saints not only abducted three thousand mortals from the East, but also the deputy leader of the Chan Religion, Randang Taoist, as well as several Chan Religion Golden Immortals such as Juliusun, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, and Cihang, all of them were poached to the Western Religion!
The deputy leader is gone, and one third of the Twelve Golden Immortals are also gone!

The loss is indeed heavy!

Of course, Chanjiao also makes a lot of money.

At least being in charge of the List of Gods is equivalent to grasping the lifeline of the Heavenly Court, making the Emperor of Heaven, who is supposed to be the supreme ruler of the Three Realms, a complete puppet that no one can use.

As a result, even though he is the Emperor of Heaven and has countless immortals and gods under his command, he still has to go to the West to ask for help when he wants to do something.

Yang Ling thought about it and felt that he should also learn the fine tradition of Western religions, act in a low-key manner and poach people in a high-profile manner!
We can’t let the Chan and Western religions take all the benefits.

Their human education also needs to develop!

Although Master Xuandu had not told him explicitly, Yang Ling could sense that this first disciple of the Human Cult was still determined to strengthen the Human Cult.

It's just that he is naturally casual, not suitable for seeking fame and fortune, and it is not in line with the path he pursues, so he chose Yang Ling, who has both means and scheming and has similar ideas to him, to join the Human Religion.

It just so happened that Yang Ling had a similar idea, so they hit it off immediately.

His next goal became clear.

Externally, he wanted to strengthen the human religion, and at the same time help Lord Haotian become the true supreme being of the Three Realms and make the Heavenly Court bigger and stronger.

This is their family's current security and future security guarantee.

Internally, he had to improve himself, speed up the refining of the Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Gourd, find a way to find the whereabouts of the Hongmeng Purple Qi... and then find a way to achieve enlightenment and become a saint!

Although now, when he says "I want to become a saint", it is just like a child saying that he wants to be an astronaut when he grows up. It is just a vague and empty dream.

But ask the practitioners in the world, which one does not have such a dream?
From the quasi-saints in the ancient times to the Qi-refining practitioners who have just stepped into the threshold of spiritual practice, who doesn't want to live freely and carefree in the world?
Looking back over the long river of time, countless mighty beings have worked hard and devoted all they had for the holy position, but in the end, they jumped into it like moths to a flame and burned themselves to death!

Because everyone knows an objective fact:

If you are not a saint, you will always be just an ant.

Even if one cultivates to the level of Golden Immortal, or even a Quasi-Saint, so what? When the Conferred God Tribulation reaches the later stages, even the Saints will personally take part in it!

Even if he managed to survive this great calamity of the Conferred Gods by relying on his status as a disciple of the Human Sect, new calamities would still appear in the future.

Who can guarantee that he can be immortal?

Only the saints!

Go through countless calamities without being worn out, and be untainted by cause and effect!
Always be with the heaven and exist with the Tao!
Only by becoming a saint can one become the player on the chessboard of heaven and earth.

But how easy is it to achieve enlightenment and become a saint?
Throughout the ages, there are countless quasi-saints who have fallen into despair because they could not see a way forward.

But he is different!
He has the Jiujiu Sanhun Gourd in his hand, so at least he can see a glimmer of hope!
If I could really obtain that ray of primordial purple energy, I might have a chance to become a saint in the future!
