An infinite journey that begins at Hogwarts

In the divine capital of Luoyang, seeing the crowds of people gathered in front of them, the sound of golden bells and jade chimes resounding, and the prosperous scene, Cedric's eyes flashed through various scenes in the world gate, and he couldn't help but sigh slightly, three corpses, thousands of cranes Puzhao Zunming knew it, and he naturally knew it too.

Before, I was still wondering about the role Daozu Hongjun played in being such a chess piece, but now that I understand the truth more and more, I have become more forward-thinking. In the hands of these big guys, every change I make seems to be calculated by them. , it’s really disappointing.

Seeing Cedric sigh, Huang Siniang on the side asked, "Why do fellow Taoists sigh in such a prosperous time?"

Cedric calmed down his complicated emotions and said, "In such a prosperous time, I don't know if I can enter the palace, so I sigh."

The brilliance in Huang Siniang's eyes flashed, and she stayed for a second on Sun Chengwu and Cheng Wen behind Cedric, and said with a smile, "What's so difficult about this? Taoist friends are just sitting on the treasure mountain without knowing it."

"Please give Huang Siniang some advice."

Huang Siniang said with a smile, "This Luotian Grand Ceremony is hosted by the emperor today. The purpose is to entertain the Supreme Beings of the Three Realms of Zhou Tian, ​​the Saints of the Ten Directions, the Heavenly Emperor Tianzhen of the Jade Capital and the Golden Palace, the Masters and Saints of the Ten Directions, the officials of the Three Realms, and all powerful spirits." , let the gods from the heavens send blessings, the most important of which is that the blessings of the constellations and blessings will come to the world. Wen can rejuvenate the country, and the military can bring peace to the country. But Taoist friends are very blessed. Both disciples have the destiny of the stars, so naturally they can You can enter this Taiwei Palace."

The fortune teller on the side looked depressed when he saw this scene. He had spent countless hours on Sun Chengwu and Cheng Wen in the past few days, but they treated him as if they were nothing. As a last resort, he could only discuss this strategy with Huang Siniang. He awakened the Taoist in front of him, and at the same time, with the help of this Taoist and the two deputy stars, he stood out among many Taoist priests and was the first to be appreciated by Emperor Tang.

At this time, the golden bell in Taiwei Palace rang, turning into a bright yellow cloud, extending from the inner city to the twenty-four outer cities. Anyone who has the ability to cross this cloud bridge is naturally qualified to join Luotian Big Jiao.

Countless immortals, riding white cranes or raising auspicious clouds, flew from the Twenty-Four Outer City, crossed the Cloud Bridge, and headed towards the Taiwei Palace in the inner city.

When the people of Luoyang saw this scene, they knelt down and prayed involuntarily.

On the nine-story platform of Taiwei Palace, Emperor Li Taiming of the Tang Dynasty was wearing a purple-gold Bagua Taoist robe with a smile on his face, as if he were the supreme being of the heavens, accepting the worship of the immortals.

Suddenly a sound of Buddha's chant resounded through the sky, and the twenty-four outer cities turned into a world glowing with five colors of light, showing countless novice monks and glazed pure lands.

Golden lotuses rose up in mid-air and turned into lotus bridges, which were also connected to the Taiwei Palace in the inner city.

Although he had expected that Buddhism would not give up, Li Taiming still had a flash of anger in his eyes. When Empress Wu Zetian moved the capital to Luoyang, she built the capital of the gods like the Lingxiao Palace. These twenty-four outer cities were obtained from the hands of the ancient Buddha Lantern Buddha. The twenty-four heavens he prayed for have protected the gods for thousands of years, but now they have become his best friend.

Although Li Taiming was furious, as an emperor, he still knew how to be forbearing. Now the whole world was watching this Luotian feast. If he had fought to the death with Buddhism from the beginning, he would only let this Luotian The Dajiao became a laughing stock.

and·······

Li Taiming turned to look behind him. In the shadow of the corridor, there was a headless dragon corpse only five steps away from him. His expression became more and more gloomy. Although the Jinghe Dragon King was here, he was completely unconscious on the left and right.

This is a warning from Buddhism, Li Taiming said to himself. Buddhism in the distance is suppressed by two saints. It may decline, but it will never become extinct. For thousands of years, the Tang Dynasty and Buddhism have been entangled in cause and effect. Buddhism cannot be separated from the Tang Dynasty. How could Tang You get away from Buddhism? As for the twenty-four outer cities, was he really determined to demolish them all? Do you want to break up with Buddhism even if you are harming your luck?

Therefore, although Buddhism is thoroughly investigated this time, it is based on political affairs and is well-founded. It is not a complete ban on Buddhism. There is still room for both parties to turn around, and this room depends on the tacit understanding between Buddhism and themselves.

On the one hand, he must turn to the Taoist sect in order to gain the support of the Supreme Saint. On the other hand, he must control the suppression of Buddhism to satisfy the Supreme Saint while not dissatisfying the two sages of the West. Send down the thunder and fury, and do what King Wu did to defeat Zhou.

Although the current situation is complicated, he is ignited with great pride. He is the supreme king in the world, sitting on the four seas. With one word, he is respected by immortals and Buddhas. Only the high "Heaven" can suppress him. And now he is I want to try to see if I can defeat the heavens with humans, achieve the grand scene of human emperors in ancient times, and be on equal footing with all the heavens.

In the outer city, looking at the golden lotus floating in the sky, Huang Siniang murmured in her heart. Although the road approaching the Emperor of Tang Dynasty mentioned by the fortune teller seemed to be another way, it could help herself and others complete the first step of the main mission of rescuing the Mongolian proton. ’, but now it seems that this road is not easy to walk. Since ancient times, the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has caused no less casualties than the dispute between demons and Buddhas and demons.

However, compared to forcing his way into the Lifan Court, a peace-loving person like himself would certainly prefer to complete the task through peaceful means.

At this time, the divine fortune teller came over with a smile, "I have a hexagram that can just carry a few more people. Why don't fellow Taoists lead us to Taiwei Palace?"

Of course Cedric would not refuse.

The divine fortune teller threw six copper coins in his hand and moved them up and down to form a 'Tai' hexagram. He stood on the hexagram with an indifferent expression. Huang Siniang, Mo Guan, Gu Huang and other reincarnations walked up, and then Cedric Wang Gui and three others also walked up. Although Li Taiming temporarily released some of the laws of the gods, if he wanted to send nine people to Taiwei Palace with the power of one person, he would need at least the power of an immortal, and an immortal would Even if he was qualified to attend the grand banquet in Yaochi, even if the Luotian Dajiao hosted by the Human Emperor would not participate easily, so countless eyes were cast on him.

However, since he decided to win Li Taiming's trust, the divine fortune teller would certainly not hide his strength at this time. Under the premise that the Golden Immortal was not coming, the divine fortune teller led everyone to the forefront of Taiwei Palace after a while.

Seeing the fortune teller and others falling in front of him, Li Taiming laughed loudly and said, "All the immortals are here, please fast with me."

Then he showed displeasure again and looked at the Buddhist people with a cold tone, "If Zen Master Liaokong doesn't check for the filth in Leiyin Temple, how can he come to this Taoist gathering?"

A monk wearing moon-white cassocks, with an Arhat status between his brows, and shining with pure colored glaze, had a kind face and asked, "May I ask your majesty what the Luotian Dajiao is?"

"A ritual to pay homage to the gods and bless the common people."

"Don't you know that I, the Second Saint of the West, can be among the saints in the heavens?"

Li Taiming didn't answer.

Monk Liao Kong continued, "At the beginning, the two sages of the West also listened to the Taoist ancestors' sermons in the Zixiao Palace. Therefore, they had the supreme power to open up the right path of Buddhism. Saint Zhunti also beheaded the body of Shaohao, the White Emperor of the West. Naturally, so did our Buddhist sect. You can participate in the Luotian Dajiao."

Li Taiming was silent for a while and said, "Then let's come in together."

In the communication channel, Huang Siniang said softly, "Everyone, please be careful. This time things are not simple."

Gu Huang's voice was solemn, "What should I say?"

"The Emperor of Tang Dynasty had already banned Buddhism before, but now his attitude has changed. There may have been some changes that we don't know about."
