Chapter 91: On the Law (2)
Facing the three golden armored strong men rushing towards him with swords, the old man Aguris looked calm, his green eyes were full of novelty, and his scrutiny was like a child seeing a new toy, as if he had no idea that the sword held high in the golden armored strong men were actually nothing different from it. They were weapons that could cut off tendons and bones and beheaded and killed. £∝
In the blink of an eye, the golden armored hero rushed to the old man Aguris, but the raised sword did not swing it down after all, but just circled around him like a lantern.
"These three combat puppets condensed by the power of faith are not powerful...but have such a clear and anthropomorphic appearance. Are they specially shaped like this? Why?" Old Man Aguris looked at the murderous intent around him, at least trying to create a murderous intent with his three golden armored heroes, and showed a slight puzzled look and asked Xiaoxia.
Xiao Xia was speechless for a moment and did not turn to Jin Lingzi and others. This question was really inexplicable for them. Since Zhang Daoling founded the Tianshi Sect, the Tianshi Taoism has always been like this. Even if there are occasional changes over the past few hundred years, it is based on the original basis and the movement is not big. Old Aguris suddenly asked this question, just like asking people 'Why are there five fingers' and 'Why do people have long noses, ears and eyes', which is really unanswered.
The Taoist who used these three golden armored strong men on the other side was impatient, and was vaguely proud, and said to Xiaoxia: "You tell this fellow Euro, if you have any means, use it quickly, and don't be afraid of being unable to overcome the situation. These three demon-slaying spirit officials are just the more basic methods in my Tianshi Taoist Dharma. If you accidentally hurt him in such a situation, you can only blame him for being too weak in the Euroi method."
Xiaoxia could only tell Aguris: "They want to see what spells are like in the Euro continent. Can you use the corresponding spell to deal with it?"
"Of course." Aguris nodded. "Although he lost the assistance of the magic net, most of the magical magic cannot function normally. Fortunately, I did not forget that the glory of Amanta is the foundation of our believers. I have always believed that the place where the glory of Amanta shines is our paradise. Even if he bypasses the magic net, his glory and power are enough to be revealed."
"If it is the corresponding combat puppet, I can only choose the Sunlight Spirit. This is a slight manifestation of my will, but there is enough power in this world. Please be careful, all the mages." Aguris thought for a while, stretched out his hands, and prayed devoutly in the sky: "Amanta, with my most sincere prayer, please show your authority and power in this world."
A pillar of light that was condensed like a substance fell from the sky and fell straight in front of Aguris. This time, the roof of the Taoist temple was no longer just lightly transmitted by the sunlight as before, but was directly burned open in the extremely strong sunlight. The roof tiles turned into dark red lava dripped from the roof, and fell on the ground and condensed into small stone particles again. However, no one paid attention to this kind of thing, and everyone's eyes were attracted by the things condensed by this pillar of light.
It was a bright yellow light ball floating in the air, the size of a millstone, emitting a slightly dazzling bright light. These lights were not constant, but were flashing and flowing at a spiritual rhythm. When people saw this ball of light, they could not help but feel like they were a living creature. If a child saw such a round, shiny, and lively thing, they might find it extremely fun. But there were many people here who had cultivation and had considerable eyes. Their expressions were shocked and terrifying when they looked at this ball of light ball.
"Such direct and rich sun fire... I'm afraid even the five elements Taoism of the monsters in the Tianhuo Sect is just like this..."
"This... I just borrow the power of heaven and earth like the shamans of the Xidi barbarians. It's true that they are like barbarians..."
"No. This is not pure sun fire, with a huge aura and vigorous vitality... It is also different from the rustic and roughness of shaman spells. It is clearly bound by doctrine and belief..."
"How many grades of spells can this be considered? No, should this be considered an innate spell or acquired? Such a strong sun true fire. The magic structure in the inner body is also integrated, with the meaning of endless life. It should be a power that can only be found innate, but it seems to be a bit unbroken. The flexibility is slightly worse than the five-element armored soldiers..."
The other Taoists present whispered to each other and looked solemn at the light ball. Even Xiaoxia was quite surprised by the magic used by the old man Aguris - in the European continent - as a magical technique. With the help of the True Talisman of All Things, his eyesight was naturally much higher than others. He could see that the true fire of the sun and a trace of true spirit contained in this light ball, if it were purely in terms of power, it would be far beyond the ordinary Five Element Armored Soldiers.
Aguris's expression was dull, but Xiao Xia could still feel a little tired between his eyebrows. Such a magic technique would not be a big guy that could be completed with lightness. Even so, he would have plenty of energy to summon such a puppet out of thin air. It can be seen that even if the old man's cultivation is in the world of China, he is still a first-class master in the Taoist sect.
As for the Sunlight Spirit, although Xiao Xia could see it more clearly than others, he did not understand it better than others. What Jin Lingzi and others were talking about was also the question in his heart. After all, these people were from Taoist sects and had much more solid reading of basic skills and classics than him. At most, he could only feel that some of the light spirits were very different from the Taoist crafts of Shenzhou, and they were indeed unable to explain what they understood from the shaman magic of the Xidi people.
The Taoist who had transformed into three golden armored heroes just now couldn't bear it anymore and said, "This ghost name can't be seen even if you look left and right. After all, you still have to see the true chapters of the masters! Don't look at the few wisps of the sun's true fire among them. This Euro magic is somewhat similar to the shaman spell of the barbarians of the West Di. It is probably the most rough and difficult to control and the backlash is huge. It's still unpredictable to fight. Let me try these demon-slaying spirit officials."
After hesitating for a moment, the Taoist seemed to understand that the group of light spirits in front of him might not be easy to deal with. He clasped his fists at Aguris and said, "This fellow Taoist Euro has indeed some attainments in his magic. These three demon-slaying spirit officials are a bit reluctant. I will not be accustomed to the devil-killing generals, right?"
After listening to Xiaoxia's translation, Aguris nodded: "Of course. I was just about to see more of this wonderful combat puppet. They seem to have a special status in the religion believed in by this mage. Are they full-time divine servants fighting? But I didn't feel any combat-related aura in it..."
"This is because this mage is not at the same level. On the one hand, he cannot understand the essence contained in this divine servant, and on the other hand, he cannot condense the beliefs related to combat..." Xiao Xia glanced at the Taoist who was eager to try and answered in Euro. The first time he commented on others in person, even if he knew that the other party would definitely not understand, he would inevitably feel uncomfortable.
The Heavenly Master is the most commonly used spell of the Heavenly Master’s Taoist Dharma is to activate the power of incense. Some are directly used as spells, and more often condense various magical bodies in this way. These golden armored heroes or gods cannot imagine them out of thin air. Instead, they have a source and occupy a place in the real spiritual craft map of the Tianshi Master’s Sect. Some are famous generals in history books, some are legendary celebrities from all over the world, and even monsters and monsters who have done good deeds and received incense and worshipped by everyone. The three golden armored heroes of this Taoist are just the lowest-level demon-slaying spirit officials. They don’t receive much incense and cannot condense much faith and thought power. This Taoist obviously does not understand the true body of this spiritual official, and the three puppets they have created can only be so simple and powerful.
At this time, the Taoist took out two more talismans and threw them into the air. As the golden light shone, two tall and mighty golden armored gods emerged. The status of these two golden armored gods was much higher than the three golden armored heroes just now. The Taoist priests spent more spiritual thoughts on them. Their bodies were taller and their bodies were wrapped in armor. They looked more majestic than the half-armored and half-naked heroes, and they seemed to bring out some majestic momentum. As soon as these two golden armored gods landed, they rushed towards the light spirit summoned by Aguris with the three golden armored heroes just now.
Guangling was flying slowly towards the middle of the hall. Of course, this was not to escape, it seemed to be changing to a suitable place to fight under Aguris' instruction. The two gods and three strong men were much faster. They chased after them in just a few strokes, and then spread out and surrounded Guangling in the middle. In a moderate way, there was a hint of combat formation cooperation. At the same time, they raised the weapon in their hand and slashed at Guangling from five different directions.
This light spirit seems to be tangible and intangible, but everyone can guess that it is probably the same as the Five Elements Armored Soldiers. As long as the ordinary stabbing and impact cannot damage the core, they can only slowly weaken the mana operation. The weapons in the hands of these golden armored heroes are actually the same as their bodies, and are condensed by the mixed magic power of incense beliefs. They are worse than ordinary swords. However, the weapons in the hands of the two golden armored gods can have some magic power, but they are not very effective. The Taoist probably did not think about what it really does to command the attack, but they just wanted to test what kind of reaction this light spirit would have.
The reaction came very quickly, so fast that it was almost impossible to see clearly. Five dazzling lights flashed through the hall, making everyone slightly dazzled, and everything calmed down again, as if nothing had happened. The bright yellow ball of light was still floating quietly in the air, but the light on it seemed a little dimmed, while the five golden-armored puppets around were gone. A breeze blew in from the door, and only a little ashes were left on the ground.
"This...this..." The man was at a loss, stunned, looking at the ashes on the ground, unable to speak. Maybe he was mentally prepared, after all, these three spiritual officials and two gods were just middle-grade Taoist techniques that had not been entered into innate. He was very likely not the opponent of the strange light spirit, but he never expected that he could not even hold on to a single encounter, and there was no sound, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Everyone else looked at each other and looked shocked. Only in the blink of an eye could it be seen in the blink of an eye that five thick light pillars shot out from the ball of light spirit were shot right on the five golden armored puppets. The sun true fire contained in it instantly destroyed the magic power and faith body on the puppet, burning the core talisman. Not to mention these Taoist puppets, even martial arts masters would not have time to dodge. Moreover, the light pillar was obviously extremely powerful, but no aftermath was leaked. No one around felt any residual heat. Such magical methods were already far beyond ordinary Five Element Armored Soldiers.
"...It turns out to be like those shamanic witchcraft. The phantom that directly triggers the true fire of the sun is indeed extraordinary... but there is no need for sacrifices. I don't see any backlash... This Euro spell is indeed a bit extraordinary..."
"Didn't this Euroi religion believe in the true sun god? It must be specialized in this way. It is different from those Xidishammans who rely entirely on instinct and unrestrainedly to stimulate the power of heaven and earth..."
"The true sun god... Master Yuanrong, is this related to the Great Sun Tathagata of your Buddhist Tantric Buddhism? I heard that the highest supernatural power of the Pure Land Zen Temple is the Great Sun Sutra..."
"Amitabha Buddha. Vairocana Buddha is also called the Great Sun Tathagata, which means a unique honor in the Dharma Realm, like the Great Sun in the sky. However, it does not refer to the real sun star. It should not be confused with the true sun god believed by this donor of Euro. Master Crow must know..."
Aguris was not proud of the shock and comments there, but instead sighed to Xiaoxia, saying, "It is free from the assistance of the magic net. This sunlight spirit can only exist in my perception, and all actions can only be achieved through my instructions. It exists for a short time. Strictly speaking, it is not a perfect summoning object. On the contrary, the divine servant condensed by the mage is weak, but seems to have some weak sense of self-consciousness. And I found that each of them seems to be different, not in essence, but in their appearance... Is it meaningful to deliberately shape their different appearances?"
"Oh... this is not a deliberate shaping, but they were like that." Xiao Xia recalled the golden armored puppet summoned by the Taoist just now. "The first three should be the Taishan Stone Spirit Officials. Zhou Bo, a righteous man who killed a dragon in Longjiang to eliminate harm in the people in the southeast of Yangzhou, and General Lianshan who dug a mountain road to kill mountain ghosts in Shuzhou. These are all figures from hundreds of years ago. Later, they were slowly included in the real spirit art map and were worshipped by the people, becoming the lowest level of the gods in the Tianshi Dao. As for the two behind, one is Huo Guang, the general who swept the Western Di in the early years of the previous dynasty, and the other is Wu Gongling, the military god during the Warring States Period. They are also famous heroes in history books..."
"Everyone is a god?" Aguris seemed surprised. "What is their clergy?"
"Criminal?" Xiao Xia understood the word, but she didn't understand the meaning very much.
"It is the laws and concepts they control in this world. For example, my Lord Amanta controls light, justice and part of life. The god of the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind controls all the elements they belong to."
"E...they do not have any clergy...and they do not control any rules and concepts. It's just that the Tianshi Sect gave them the position of this god."
"Why do you need this? What is the point of shaping such false gods for no reason? Isn't your religion 'Tao' the meaning of pursuing 'truth'?"
Xiao Xia was speechless for a moment. In fact, Taoist sect is a very broad concept. There is a big difference within it, and the gradual evolution is even more complicated. The inheritance of the ancient Taoist sect such as the Five Elements Sect and Kunlun pursues the ultimate principles of heaven. They are very different from the concepts and principles of practice in the world after the Tianshi Sect, Shangqing Maoshan and other worldly practice. They are different from the two, like Zhenwu Sect. Such things are so different from the two. In this way, the famous people in the ancients and the gods were awarded the position of gods to strengthen their own momentum. Zhang Daoling was in the beginning of his establishment of the sect to compete with the Buddhist believers.
The Zhengyi Sect’s true spiritual craft map was established until now. After additions, deletions and modifications from generation to generation, there are thousands of gods on it. Strictly speaking, each god has its own scope of responsibilities, but it is very vague. It is far less clear and righteous than the Euro gods mentioned by the old man Aguris, and more like a name given based on his own characteristics. In addition to the images of Mira Daozun and Zhang Daoling that remain unchanged, the others are also different. Most of them are gods well-known to local people and willing to worship.
In other words, the Amanta believed in by Aguris is the spirit of heaven and earth that gathers people's faith, while the gods shaped by the Heavenly Master Tao use human beliefs to shape gods to deal with heaven and earth.
Xiao Xia vaguely understood these truths, but she couldn't say them clearly. Moreover, it was barely right to say that "Tao" is "truth". Although the Euro language in his mind seemed to have been used for decades, the subtle differences in the two continents of China, Europe and Europe, and the inheritance of Taoism cannot be clearly expressed in words.
Just when he didn't know how to tell the story, the Taoist Jin Lingzi on the opposite side had already taken a big step forward and said loudly: "This fellow Aguris's Euro magic is indeed unique, but fellow Taoists should not underestimate my Taoist sect in China. I am not talented, so now I will use the real superior Taoist sect of the Heavenly Master Dao to learn about it! Please do not restrain this fireball magic again, and use it together to see if you have any means!"
After saying that, Taoist Jin Lingzi pulled open the bandage wrapped in his hand, and shouted softly: "The gods protect their bodies and destroy demons."
A layer of golden armor appeared on the body of Jin Lingzi Taoist, which was exactly the method he used to face the strong man Mingx in the inn. Then he took out two talismans from his arms and threw them into the air. One talisman turned into a vermilion bird phantom and flew down, landing on his armor and blending into one, and the other turned into a long sword full of golden light and fell into his hands.
ps: The real spiritual arts map was made by Tao Hongjing, not Zhang Daoling. The development of Taoism is indeed a very complicated process, and the divine system was established as the main purpose, which is contrary to Taoist theory. Taoism and Taoism are completely different. This book is not a novel of cultivating immortals, but can be regarded as a martial arts novel with a background in Taoism skills.
Speaking of which, do those who write novels about "cultivating immortals" and "cultivating immortals" really understand what these two words mean? (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
