Chapter 640 Let’s Go Together, Let’s Go Together (2)
"Hahaha, let's go together, let's go together!"
In the boundless void, a huge ship surrounded by three-colored Buddha light smashed waves of void tides and flew rapidly towards Yuanlingtian.
On the warship, including Lu Xiu, nearly a thousand members of the Lu family were all grinning from ear to ear.
As for the cultivation of these Lu clan members... they don't have much cultivation to speak of. Many of them have just started their cultivation journey, and the strongest ones are only at the level of the Fiery Realm.
But they are all the most clever, intelligent, insightful and adept at managing worldly affairs among the Lu family.
It's no use asking them to fight and risk their lives.
If you want them to be high officials and govern a region, be a housekeeper who haggles over every penny, be a businessman who buys low and sells high, or even be a profiteer who monopolizes an industry and hoards goods, they are all top-notch experts. They are also good at all kinds of money tricks, beauty tricks, planting spies, and arranging secret agents.
There are also people who come from the side branch of the Lu family and are in a similar situation to Lu Yi back then. Therefore, they also hang out in the streets and have nicknames like "Little Mengchang" and "Timely Rain"... If you strip this kind of person naked and throw him into a neighborhood somewhere, within half a year he will be able to appear dressed in silk and satin and with gold in his sleeves.
These are all talented people!
Even if they go to the upper realm, if Lu Yi has his own business, he can let them serve as reception monks, or be the heads of various palaces, halls, towers and pavilions, handling various miscellaneous affairs. They will all be first-class and useful talents!
It has been many years since Lu Yi left Jishengtian, and the Lu family has grown stronger and stronger. These nearly one thousand Lu family members are all talents that have emerged in recent years... and they have no family to burden them, so they have few worries. Lu Yi packed them up and took them to the upper realm to ensure that they have a basic longevity and freedom. They were all overjoyed and have not recovered yet.
All these people are under the control of Lu Xiu.
Speaking of Luxiu.
Since returning from the Northern Frontier, Lu Xiu and Lu Yi left Jishengtian and went to Yuanlingtian to stir up trouble. Over the years, while Lu Xiu's cultivation became more and more sophisticated, he also took on several concubines and side wives.
He had no regrets about leaving this time.
Over the years, he gave Lu Yu seventeen half-brothers and nine half-sisters, and gave Lu Yi a large group of uncles and aunts... as well as nearly a hundred cousins, hundreds of nephews and nieces, etc...
Lu Xiu alone has given birth to a fairly large family, the leaders of which have already called the shots in the court of Dayin... Even if Lu Xiu leaves, with the support of Buddhism, which has unified the world's cultivation world, the Lu family will have no worries at all.
They should not have any ambitions. They will just change the dynasty in Dayin after a hundred or eighty years.
Speaking of changing dynasties…
Yinyuan's father, the old emperor, has also made great achievements in his practice over the years.
However, after hearing that Yinyuan was forced to ascend to the upper realm, the old emperor asked about the details of the incident and thought for a long time. Finally, he decided to stay in Dayin and continue to be his emperor.
Lu Yi could roughly guess what the old emperor was thinking.
If Yinyuan had come back with Lu Yi this time, the old emperor would have rolled up his sleeves and followed Lu Yi to the upper world... But if Yinyuan didn't come back, the old emperor would definitely not move!
He is different from Lu Xiu.
Lu Xiu has given birth to so many sons and grandsons over the years. In addition, the Lu family was already very powerful and talented, so Lu Xiu could withdraw at any time...but the old emperor has also given Yinyuan many brothers and sisters over the years...but none of them is capable!
When it comes to eating, drinking, having fun, and living a life of luxury and debauchery, these princes and princesses are all top experts.
During the short few days that Lu Yi stayed in Haojing, he heard about several princesses sending their guards to abduct handsome young men into the princess's mansion in the middle of the night to have fun - these princesses had not yet married, but their reputations had already spread throughout half of Haojing!
In this situation, how could the old emperor dare to leave with Lu Yi?
If he were to leave, I'm afraid that the things that Lu Yi had guessed would really happen - it would not be a problem in the short term, after all, there is the relationship with Lu Xiu. After Lu Xiu and Lu Yi have been gone for a long time, the Lu family, with the support of Buddhism, will change the dynasty... Tsk!
Therefore, the old emperor did not leave, but resolutely continued to stay in Haojing.
Therefore, on the battleship, apart from nearly a thousand Lu family elites who were partying day and night, there were only nine great old monks such as Shenzui, and eight thousand carefully selected and equally smart young monks.
Yes, each of the three sects, three temples and three Zen monasteries had an elder who was promoted to a celestial being. These nine celestial beings all followed Lu Yi away.
In this regard, Jishengtian did not comment… The departure of nine celestial beings and the birth of nine more celestial beings to rule Jishengtian was nothing.
Shenzui and the other nine celestial beings, even though they had superb cultivation and had reached a very deep level of meditation, could not control their emotions these days.
They are truly and extremely pure Buddhist disciples.
When the spiritual energy of the Supreme Saint Heaven and Earth collapsed and the cultivation world was in such a depressed state, they managed the Buddhist sect in an orderly manner with their almost exhausted bodies. Even when the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth was restored, they immediately felt the changes in the heaven and earth, and immediately sent disciples to travel the world, and even formulated a plan to absorb the hearts and minds of the people to restore the spiritual energy of the mountain gate and restore the vitality of Buddhism!
After working hard all your life, suddenly a golden road appears before your eyes.
Ascending to the upper realms, meeting the true Buddha, and enjoying true bliss and purity, how could they not be happy and excited?
As for the eight thousand young monks, their cultivation was even inferior to that of the Lu clan members. They were all young monks who had just embarked on the path of cultivation, but each of them had excellent aptitude and a good foundation.
Lu Yi is confident that he can quickly train them into talents once he reaches the upper realm!
These little monks are there to help Lu Yu balance the base of Buddhist practitioners in Yuanlingtian. Although it seems that everyone is a "partner" who follows Lu Yu in all his efforts, what about the future?
Once you reach the upper realm, who knows what everyone is thinking?
Jieyin Toudao, Shafo Wuxin and other leaders of the Mahakala group will certainly have their own ideas. Now they obey Lu Yi's words, but who knows what will happen in the future?
With their character, cultivation, means, and connections, it is possible for them to sideline Lu Yi!
These eight thousand carefully selected young monks, together with nearly a thousand members of the Lu family, will be the real foundation for Lu Yi's future as long as Lu Yi is willing to invest resources and train them!
In particular, Lu Yi is Shenzui's true disciple.
The nine old monks including Shenzui were even more sophisticated and ruthless in their character and methods than Jieyin Toudao and his men.
The strength of Jieying Toudao and his men is indeed very strong...but before Lu Yi joined Mahakala, they had not achieved any results except for killing indiscriminately.
Being strong does not mean being able to get things done!
Although Shenzui Monk and his companions were weak before, they are very capable!
That's right!
Under the protection of Lu Yi's peaceful heart lamp, the giant ship slowly sailed towards Yuanlingtian.
Along the way, Lu Yi spent a lot of resources to provide training for the Lu clan members and the eight thousand young monks. With Lu Yi's instructions, even at the expense of his own vitality to give them initiation and power, and with the supervision and reprimand of Shen Zui and Lu Xiu, the group's training progressed by leaps and bounds, and their training efficiency was astonishingly high.
And along the way, he could also collect some rare treasures unique to the void tides... Several times, he even discovered some wonderful small mineral veins in the void tides. Every time at this time , Lu Yi would stop the boat and spend some time to plunder all the good things that he couldn't find in the real world.
Chaos had no idea how many years had passed. By the time the warship controlled by Lu Yi slowly passed through the world diaphragm of Yuan Lingtian, exactly two hundred and thirty years had passed since he left Dajue Temple.
During the past two hundred and thirty years, the main temple of Dajue Temple, as well as all its branches and sub-monasteries, were all closed and locked. All the monks, nuns, and nuns lived in seclusion and did not care about the affairs of the outside world.
And countless evil beings have wreaked havoc across the world during these two hundred and thirty years!
Lu Yi once asked Bai Nu - are the people they are killing now really the culprits behind the collapse and destruction of Wanmiaotian?
The evil is unpredictable and cannot be communicated with... But inexplicably, Bai Nu and the others were able to sit down calmly and drink tea and talk with Lu Yu face to face. They really listened to Lu Yu's words!
That’s right, the real culprit behind the destruction of Wanmiaotian was not ordinary cultivators like Jishengtian and Yuanlingtian.
The originator of this must be in the upper realm!
The overwhelming resentment made them want to rush to the upper realm and tear those high-ranking masterminds into pieces!
However, with their current identities and strengths, it is impossible for them to go to the upper realm. Secondly, if they ascend to the upper realm openly, they will probably be easily killed by the immortals from the upper realm in the first place.
Lu Yi reached a tacit understanding with them.
During the two hundred and thirty years, evil spirits wreaked havoc in Yuanlingtian, but they gave up attacking ordinary people, and they also gave up the strange transformation of mountains, rivers and lakes.
They roam around everywhere, specializing in killing and devouring those unlucky sect monks, as well as the independent cultivators hiding in various places.
For two hundred and thirty years, the cultivation world of Yuanlingtian has been wreaked havoc by them.
Later, all the cultivators suddenly discovered that as long as they shaved their heads and joined the Dajue Temple, they could avoid the invasion of evil spirits - therefore, when Lu Yi returned, the entire Yuanlingtian cultivation world was almost unified!
All monks have bald heads.
Looking down from the sky, towering Zen temples and countless shining bald heads can be seen. The sound of Buddhist chanting can be heard everywhere, and smoke billows everywhere.
"It's wonderful that the Buddhist sect has unified Jishengtian and Yuanlingtian. In the future, we will all be fellow disciples and brothers, and there will be no need to fight each other." Lu Yi boasted: "My merits, wow, my merits are boundless!"
Shenzui and other old monks stood at the bow, overlooking the earth below, feeling the extremely rich Buddhist atmosphere below, and feeling the deep and vast inspiration and Taoist rhyme of Yuanlingtian . They couldn't help but put their hands together and chant the Buddha's name.
The warship hovered over the main temple of Dajue Temple. Lu Yi laughed loudly and said, "I want to go, who wants to go with me?"
Inside Dajue Temple, countless people cheered in unison: "Let's go together, let's go together!"
