Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 410: Changing an identity, only merit
"Can you really take this tortoise shell?"
Black Turtle still spoke slowly. He felt that this was a big matter and could not be taken lightly, so he asked again.
“It’s natural!”
Mingyu smiled gently, his answer remaining the same.
" I think you should be familiar with this."
As the voice floated, the handsome figure disappeared in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already high in the sky. Auspicious clouds appeared under Mingyu's feet, lifting him up to the same level as the black tortoise.
With the palms spread out, the black and white energies are entangled with each other, yin and yang are harmonized, and life and death are balanced.
Black Turtle was confused at first, but when he saw the evolution of Yin and Yang into the three lives, and the mysterious light of creation appeared in Mingyu's palm, enlightenment arose in his heart.
"Mediate fate?"
The black tortoise with great magical powers naturally recognized it, not because he could do it, but because the person who killed him could do it.
A hole appeared in the sky, and soon a sword reached Beiming and cut his body, but his soul was intact. This was the magical power that the other party used.
When the Black Turtle saw that Mingyu had perfectly evolved this great magical power with his own great way, he knew that the other party had achieved great accomplishments in this area and finally felt relieved.
"So, I believe in my fellow believers."
A lukewarm voice sounded, with a hint of excitement, and the black turtle nodded to Mingyu.
Mingyu smiled faintly and slapped the sword case. The Yin-Yang Sword circled in the air, as if it was observing the black turtle to see where to start.
Feeling the divine sword passing by his neck, the black turtle subconsciously shrank his head at an extremely fast speed.
"Don't be afraid, I'm trying to find the angle."
Mingyu was speechless and hurried to comfort her.
The black tortoise seemed to be afraid and hid in its shell and did not come out.
Mingyu was puzzled: "Could it be that you have changed your mind?"
This sword will hit you whether you stick your head out or not. It doesn't matter whether you dodge or not.
The black tortoise stretched out its head tentatively, then quickly retracted it, saying, "It's not that I regret it, but I want to ask you, fellow Taoist, I've given you the shell, what do you want in exchange?"
It's obvious that this turtle is very smart!
Mingyu looked at the black turtle seriously and met its gaze.
The black tortoise also looked over calmly, with a gleam of wisdom flashing in his eyes that were weathered by time.
"What do you need, fellow Taoist?"
Mingyu asked softly.
"What do you need?"
Black Turtle whispered, this question stumped him.
In the countless years before, what he had been thinking about was to break free from the constraints of his physical body. However, this problem was about to be solved. While Xuan Turtle was excited, he fell into new confusion.
He doesn't know what he needs.
really.
Mingyu's mouth curled up, but quickly suppressed it again, as if nothing had happened.
"Then I'll help you think of one?"
His tone was sincere, yet full of temptation.
The black tortoise hid in its shell and looked at him. After thinking for a long time , it replied, "Daoyou, speak first."
If the idea is good, change it.
Anyway, this shell is a burden to him, and he will not lose anything no matter what he gets in exchange.
As the black tortoise thought about it, his eyes became clearer.
Mingyu did not rush to answer, but looked thoughtful.
Black Turtle didn't rush him, because he was slow himself and was used to it.
Besides, the slower Mingyu thought, the more relieved he felt.
An unknown amount of time had passed, but when the black turtle was drowsy, Mingyu spoke.
"How about I change your identity so that you can start over?"
"Change your identity?"
Black Turtle was no longer sleepy. He thought this idea was very novel.
Mingyu saw that he was interested and smiled, "Yes, just change your identity."
"What kind of identity do you want to change to?" The black turtle poked its head out and asked carefully.
"Look for yourself, fellow Taoist."
Mingyu took out the white jade bracelet, and the Dao Wheel of the Heavens vibrated. There seemed to be some kind of distortion in the void. Xuangui felt that he had escaped from the crack, jumped out of the Beiming area, and came to the sky above the long river of time in the ancient times. He lowered his head and overlooked everything. Waves were surging in the long river. The entire river of time was shrouded in fog. He wanted to take a closer look at one section of it, but he couldn't see it clearly.
"What do you want me to see, fellow Daoist?"
The black tortoise tried to move and found that he could really travel in space and move freely.
"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. I have borrowed the power of the treasure to allow your soul to temporarily break free from its shackles and transcend this place."
Mingyu walked lightly, and his handsome figure came and went freely over the long river.
He pointed to a place and said, "Over there is a long river of humanity!"
The black turtle turned his head and saw that the long river pointed out by Mingyu was one of the three major tributaries of the long river of time. As his voice fell, a corner of the fog covering the long river of humanity was lifted.
"This is?"
The black tortoise widened its eyes.
He saw that in the long river of humanity, there was a vibrant avenue that was growing rapidly. The surrounding three thousand avenues and one hundred thousand small paths were all converging towards this avenue, causing it to continue to grow!
That’s not all. What shocked Black Turtle the most was that this new avenue had the potential to merge all the avenues, swallow up all the streams, and become the main trunk alone!
"Is this a human?"
When Nuwa achieved sainthood and declared the beginning of the world, it was impossible for her not to know about the existence of human race.
But what surprised Black Turtle was that the potential of the human race was so huge that it was even greater than the three races and the liches in the past.
This time, Black Turtle was really moved.
But he remained cautious.
"I see that although the human race has the spirit of thousands of paths returning to the same source, there are also the reality of each party making its move. The myriad phenomena are certainly impressive, but the struggles are bound to be fierce. How can fellow Taoist guarantee that I can get a good position in the human race?"
It’s true that you’re excited, but it’s also true that the competition is fierce.
Compared to others, Black Turtle started so late that he doubted whether he could defeat the sacred forces from all sides.
Facing the question from the black tortoise, Mingyu had a calm face. He answered calmly: "You can rest assured about this. First of all, the human race was created by the Queen Mother. Secondly, I am in charge of life and death, and I can escort you on the road of reincarnation. Finally, don't forget your contribution to supporting the sky!"
The last sentence, like the sound of a huge bell, woke the black tortoise up.
There is no greater merit than creating and saving the world.
Although he was not the one who saved the world, he was part of the tool for saving the world!
Even though the black turtle himself wanted very much to break free from the constraints of his body, in the judgment of heaven and earth, the demon god was already dead, and the merit was still given to the black turtle.
Thinking of this, the black tortoise smiled happily, "In that case, I'll have to trouble you, fellow Taoist."
There was a hint of earnestness in his slow tone.
He was afraid that it would be too late and there would not be a good seat.
Mingyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, the situation has not yet begun, we still need to wait for some time."
"That's good!"
Black Turtle heaved a sigh of relief. Since the situation had not yet taken shape, he would just wait. He had already waited for countless years, so a little longer wouldn't make a difference.
Mingyu nodded, flicked her sleeves lightly, and the long river of humanity returned to the haze again.
He dispersed his magical powers, put away his Taoist wheel, and left the river of time with the black turtle, arriving at the crack world again.
The black tortoise's spirit returned to his body, but he was a little uncomfortable. He shook his body a few times and was a little disappointed: "It turns out it's only temporary!"
Mingyu recalled the magic sword and said kindly, "You will be free soon, please be patient for a while."
The black turtle looked at the sharp Yin-Yang sword in Mingyu's hand with a bit of desire in his eyes.
"Go ahead, fellow Daoist. I can handle it!"
"In that case, I won't be polite!"
Mingyu smiled and bowed, shaking his sleeves, and the magic sword shook slightly.
Billions of sword lights appeared in an instant, and the meaning of life and death condensed into a huge millstone. The terrifying pressure shook the sky and the earth. When the black turtle saw it, its head suddenly retracted.
"Dao... Daoist friend, there is no need for such a big fuss!"
The Dao determination that had just been firm began to waver in an instant.
The black turtle felt that this was not like peeling its shell, but more like burying itself!
"Don't be afraid, I'm very gentle!"
The Taoist in white robe had a gentle smile, but his mouthful of white teeth looked a bit sinister.
The black tortoise stepped back.
It didn't stop until it retreated to the edge of the crack world.
He made up his mind and closed his eyes.
"bring it on!"
…
Yutani.
The three little ones are still guarding the Demon-Suppressing Tower.
"Why isn't it healed yet?"
December looked up at the sky, she couldn't wait any longer.
I haven’t seen my uncle for nearly three thousand years. I miss him!
“It’ll be there soon!”
Lu Ya responded to his sister mechanically. He himself didn't know how many times he had said these three words.
The time of waiting always seems extraordinarily long.
He felt that these two thousand years were longer than the two hundred thousand years he had spent in the Demon Realm, and that life in the Demon Realm was much more interesting than here.
It has been more than two thousand years since Lu Ya last became the Demon Lord, and he misses it very much.
Emperor Jiu was very calm . After his brothers left, he spent a much longer time alone in Tanggu. In comparison, more than two thousand years was just a blink of an eye.
What's more, he has his brother and sister to accompany him, so how could he feel bored?
"However, did uncle encounter some obstacles that he was gone for more than 2,000 years?"
Di Jiu supported his chin and thought, worried like a little adult.
At this moment, the five jade towers that had been silent for a long time suddenly shook.
"ah!"
Emperor December exclaimed.
Lu Ya and Di Jiu also looked up at the sky with happy expressions on their faces.
The atmosphere in the valley suddenly changed. Five jade towers each emitted a ray of light, which rushed into the sky, intertwined in the clouds, and turned into a pagoda. The tower was nine stories high, with bells hanging from the five corners, as delicate and smooth as jade. The clouds and mist were lingering, and the sunlight poured down, reflecting a dreamlike picture on the white jade wall.
In the scroll, the demon kings who were originally being burned by the true fire have now turned into ashes. With the dissipation of the last wisp of the true fire, everything about them was returned to the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda and completely merged with the pagoda. The demon mirror hanging on the top of the pagoda shines brightly, and the mirror surface is as clear as a mirror, reflecting the world.
"Xiaojiu!"
Lu Ya called out.
Emperor Jiu came to his senses, and according to the method taught by Mingyu, he began to gradually control this magical treasure.
“Brother, merit!”
Emperor December reminder.
"clear!"
Emperor Jiu's brocade clothes fluttered, and the sea of luck that had been silent for a long time trembled for a moment. The huge amount of Xuanhuang merit accumulated was mobilized by him and injected into the Demon Suppressing Tower.
Red-gold lines began to appear on the flawless white Demon-Suppressing Tower, making the already extremely heavy Demon-Suppressing Tower even more majestic.
The red-gold Taoist patterns rose up layer by layer, and even the jade bells on the five corners of each layer were dyed with dark yellow. Emperor Jiu engraved his own Taoist image on the Demon-Suppressing Tower. The Golden Crow held the sun in its mouth, and Fusang suppressed the world. The magnificent momentum shocked all directions.
When the Xuanhuang merits were integrated into the magic mirror hanging on the ninth floor, the myriad strange phenomena in the Tang Valley gradually converged, the five jade towers beside the golden pool completely disappeared, and a small tower fell quietly in the palm of Emperor Jiu!
"Hiss, brother, your merits are ridiculous!"
Lu Ya looked like he had a toothache. He discovered that his ninth brother's Demon-Suppressing Tower had become a top-grade acquired merit spiritual treasure in the blink of an eye!
And it seems that this is not the limit.
Emperor Jiu was happily playing with the Demon-Suppressing Tower, but when he heard his brother's words, he paused.
"Is there?"
“It’s a lot!”
Emperor December nodded.
She can also earn merits, but not as much as her ninth brother, and she is almost greedy.
Emperor Jiu, however, was not happy at all.
He sighed, "Now, all I have left is merit!"
How many people would envy the fact that all the achievements of ten days were attributed to him, but this was not what Emperor Jiu wanted.
If possible, he would rather use these merits to exchange for his brother!
"elder brother……"
Perhaps it was because Emperor Jiu's grief was so contagious, tears welled up in Emperor Shi'eryue's eyes. She tried hard not to let the tears roll down, showing her strength, and even very sensibly held Emperor Jiu's hand and put it against her own little face.
My mother used to comfort herself in this way.
Lu Ya didn't expect that a joke of his would actually trigger the inner pain of his younger brother and sister. He was heartbroken and at a loss, not knowing what to do.
He had promised his uncle not to tell.
So, when Mingyu happily returned to Tanggu, she saw the three children hugging and crying.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
He was very confused.
You were fine when you left, why are you so sad now?
"uncle!"
When the three little ones saw Mingyu, they immediately surrounded her and cried even louder.
Although Mingyu was confused, when she saw the little ones crying so sadly, her expression softened and her eyes were gentle.
"Okay, okay, it's okay, it's okay..."
He soothed softly.
At this moment, a sound of sobbing fell into Mingyu's ears.
Lu Ya, who was clearly crying his heart out, was now trying hard to narrate the entire story.
"I see."
Mingyu smiled gently.
"Don't worry about it, I'll take care of everything!"
Calm words can best soothe people's hearts. After hearing Sanxiao's words, her crying gradually subsided.
He waited quietly for the three little ones to calm down, and then wiped away the tears on their faces one by one.
"You have grown up now, so don't cry so easily anymore."
Mingyu taught the little ones like a father or brother, and he simply explained things to them.
"Uncle, you mean..."
Emperor Twelve Moon and Emperor Nine opened their eyes wide, full of anticipation.
Mingyu nodded. The catastrophe had already passed, so it wouldn't be a big problem to show a little.
The two little guys have eyes and brows as curved as crescent moons. This is really great news!
"By the way, I've brought back the tiger fang I promised you. It's a gift from the White Tiger Lord!"
Mingyu took out the "gift" from the White Tiger Lord. It was three dagger-like fangs, stained with blood, and filled with murderous aura.
"Uncle is awesome!"
Sanxiao turned sadness into joy and smiled brightly.
