Chapter 271: Asking for Practice
Chapter 271: Asking for Practice
Hongxuan, who was originally in the hall, watching the dancer dancing gracefully, felt the sudden passing of life.
This real feeling of fear permeated his whole body.
A series of auditory hallucinations penetrated into Hongxuan's ears.
"Hongxuan!"
"Hongxuan! Your mission in the human world has been completed, come back!"
The auditory hallucinations made Hongxuan's consciousness begin to become hazy.
Hongxuan realized that he was a mortal.
"I am a mortal! No! Why do I feel this way? I am a person who has cultivated the power of the five elements."
"The power of the five elements!" Hongxuan suddenly woke up.
He took out the Five Elements Lotus Bowl, which was like a space storage ring.
"The power of the five elements! This magic weapon is next to my body and is silently absorbing my lifespan!"
Hongxuan didn't realize until now that the Dali Kingdom's dispatch of 50,000 soldiers to fight against the Dafeng Kingdom's 500,000 soldiers a year ago was just a cover.
"The real purpose of Taoist Qingxuan is to keep this magic weapon by my side!"
"The greatest function of this magic weapon is not to fight, but to absorb life."
Hongxuan suddenly realized something and threw the Five Elements Lotus Bowl away.
When the five-element lotus bowl fell in the hall,
A wisp of green smoke rose from the lotus pod and gathered into the shape of a human.
This is really the Taoist Qingxuan:
"Haha! As expected of you, you are the Zhenbei King Hongxuan. Oh! Now you are no longer the Zhenbei King, but the Fengwu Emperor. Your reaction is really fast. What a pity, what a pity! Although you look young, your vitality has been drained away!"
"Hongxuan! You don't think that practicing is that easy, do you? Do you know that practicing for an emperor is against the rules? The emperor is the supreme ruler, and his fate is determined by heaven. And you, Hongxuan, possess the power of the five elements and practice secret techniques! This is the only thing that is determined by heaven!"
Hongxuan's brows were furrowed, he knew that the culprit of all this was the Taoist Qingxuan in front of him. Of course, he also knew that there was another person behind this, that was the chief deacon who controlled this world.
Hongxuan looked at Taoist Qingxuan and smiled
"Don't fool me with God's will, and don't instill these principles of the emperor in me. You can fool other people with these principles, but you want to fool me with these tricks?"
Hongxuan's vision is no smaller than that of the Taoist Qingxuan in front of him, and the knowledge he knows is no less than that of the Taoist Qingxuan.
"Who said the emperor can't practice? This is the rule you made! But I won't follow it."
Taoist Qingxuan smiled and said:
"Although you discovered it early, you don't have many days left to live. I want to see how you, Hongxuan, survive this disaster."
After saying this, the shadow on the lotus pod disappeared.
Hongxuan was the only one left in the hall.
"Human power has its limits, life span has its limits, not to mention my mortal body! Unless I practice cultivation from the beginning, there is no way to practice cultivation in this world."
Hongxuan thought of many ways to prolong life, but are these ways useful?
The most common method is to make elixirs and eat so-called elixirs. This is what the emperor always does.
But what Hongxuan knew was that the so-called elixir was actually just some heavy metals, and eating too much would cause poisoning.
"I only have the method of the five elements, but not the method of the longevity technique! But is there a method to practice the longevity technique or not?"
Obviously the answer to this question is that there is no secret to immortality in this world.
Hongxuan originally wanted to stay here for three years.
In the entire Dafeng Kingdom, he has the final say, no matter where he is, but now this situation has occurred.
Hongxuan had to leave this Nanyun area.
Within the territory he knew, Hongxuan had accomplished everything he should have done.
What needs to be done now is to get rid of this mortal body.
When Hongxuan returned to the capital of Dafeng Kingdom.
In the imperial city of Bona Kingdom in Kyoto, Hongxuan sat high on the hall, while a figure under the hall sat cross-legged on the ground.
This person is Master Kumarajiva.
Hong Xuan said to Master Jiuma Luo:
"Master! I never thought that I would see you today since we last met in Yingzhou."
Jiuma Luo said respectfully to Hongxuan:
"Your Majesty, I heard that you have fallen into the magic well in Yingzhou."
After hearing this, I felt extremely sad, so I returned to the Galan Temple in the country of Bona and chanted sutras and prayed for Your Majesty every day.
Hongxuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Reciting scriptures and praying for me every day?
Hongxuan looked at Jiufanluo and said:
"Master! Can you see that I will not live long in this world?"
Jiufanluo raised his head slightly and looked at Hongxuan:
"Your Majesty! Please don't play such a big joke on me. Your Majesty looks so young and was appointed by heaven. How could you die soon?"
Hongxuan did not hide anything.
"To be honest, Master! I have the power of the five elements through my practice, and I obtained this secret technique from the magic well. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse to obtain the power of the five elements! Although I used the power of the five elements to recover the entire Dali Kingdom when I pacified it, I also paid a huge price."
At this point, Hong Xuan's tone slowed down and he continued:
"Mage! What do you think?"
Jiufanluo looked at Hongxuan and said with a smile:
"Your Majesty's achievements are unparalleled! The territories of the three kingdoms of the north, south and center have all been included in the territory of Dafeng. You can be said to be an emperor who will be remembered for thousands of years."
"Since Your Majesty has completed the mission you were supposed to do, why not retire after achieving success?"
Hongxuan understood what Jiufanluo meant.
"Master! I understand the principle! But what should I do?"
The purpose of Hongxuan calling Jiufanluo today was to find a way to solve his current predicament.
"Amitabha! I have a method that can be used, but I wonder if Your Majesty is willing to do so?"
Hongxuan was waiting for Jiufanluo to say what he wanted to do.
Jufan Luo said:
"Your Majesty! If you want to transcend the ordinary and become a saint and get rid of your mortal body, then you must give up the throne of emperor. Only by giving up the throne of emperor can you not be affected by the power of destiny of the Nine Five Supremes."
Hongxuan frowned.
"You mean to let me fake my own death and get away with it, giving up everything, including my kingdom?"
"The kingdom! Haha! Your Majesty, even if you get the kingdom, what can you do? It's just three meals a day and a bed to lie on. At most, the ministers and people of the Great Feng Kingdom will respect and fear you."
"The word 'fear' means that all the people in Dafeng Kingdom respect Emperor Hongxuan. Your Majesty has already experienced what it's like to be an emperor, but have you ever experienced what it's like to be a cultivator?"
Hongxuan looked at Jiufanluo and said:
"Practitioner, I am actually a practitioner! I practice the power of the five elements, so I should be considered a practitioner."
Jiufan Luo smiled slightly and said:
"Your Majesty, what you call cultivation is not true cultivation! Cultivation is about changing one's fate against the will of heaven, but what you are doing is a fixed fate! Your fate and life span are already determined! So you are not a true cultivator."
