Prehistoric: Twin lotuses with parallel stems

In the Lotus Heaven, Qinglian plays the piano, the sound of the piano is long, ethereal and clear.

But Qingxuan was currently in the process of enlightenment and practice, and had not yet woken up.

It’s not that he suddenly became more diligent and hardworking in his practice, but because Qinglian learned to be lazy occasionally.

In the past, he always followed Qinglian's path in cultivation. In terms of cultivation, Qinglian was indeed more dedicated than him.

After all, for her, practicing and attaining enlightenment is the greatest pursuit.

Although it is still the same now, she feels that Qingxuan is too lazy in his practice, so she starts to supervise him in his practice, which makes Qingxuan feel helpless.

Especially since Qinglian had never settled accounts with him about matters like the thunder tribulation, this made Qingxuan feel guilty from time to time. It was really unfair and he couldn't hold his temper.

Long Ji was lying on a mat not far from Qing Lian, sleeping soundly, and Gu Hou was also enjoying the rare quietness.

The sound of the zither gradually faded. Qinglian frowned, put the zither aside, turned to look at Qingxuan, and poked him with his hand.

Qingxuan opened his eyes and looked over in confusion.

"Are you really not going to take care of her?"

"Who?"

"Your last disciple."

Qinglian stretched out her hand and tapped the void, and what was reflected was the figure of a woman in black clothes with a string of ornaments around her waist.

At this time, Nv Qing had caught a monster and used it as a mount. She was lying lazily on the back of the mount, humming a little tune, looking indescribably leisurely.

Qingxuan raised his eyes slightly, this closed disciple seemed to be a little unmotivated. He, as the master, was practicing to attain enlightenment, but this disciple was doing the opposite. He didn't practice hard, but was just traveling around.

It is clearly the incarnation of the innate gourd vine. Even if it is a reincarnation, it is still a spiritual root. However, his temperament does not like quietness at all.

When Long Ji is free, she likes to lie down and sleep, she is very quiet.

This young woman has been with her for such a long time, and although she is somewhat lazy, her personality is completely different. I wonder if it is because she has just been born with intelligence and has developed ADHD.

Qing Xuan glanced at her and then looked away: "Why bother with her? Anyway, nothing will happen to her. They say that the master leads you to the door, but it's up to you to practice. Just let her go."

"She hasn't been brought in yet." Qinglian corrected, "She has a lot of opinions about you as her master."

"..."

Qingxuan was silent for a moment. This was indeed the truth. He had obviously only asked her to be a little more diligent.

"She has been with Long Ji for so long. She doesn't need to be taught what she can learn about you and me. When she reaches the Taiyi realm, she will understand her true self and remember everything she should remember. Before that, let her wander around."

Although Qingxuan felt that he should add some pressure on Nuqing's practice so that she would practice more diligently.

Look at Yang Jian, he practices very hard and doesn’t relax for even a moment.

Then he looked at what his last disciple was doing. He wandered from one city to another, sightseeing, eating and drinking. It turned out that his conditions were too good.

It would be fine if he could give her some thunder punishment from time to time to encourage her, but unfortunately, he threw away the measuring ruler.

Looking at Nv Qing's figure, Qing Xuan shook his head. Nv Qing's luck and momentum were gradually gathering.

Although these were all momentum and fortune that were borrowed, their magnitude was indeed astonishing.

Nu Qing is the only person in their lineage who relies on the power of heaven and earth to practice. Only by relying on the power of heaven and earth can she quickly improve her cultivation.

If not, with her current foundation, it would take her an unknown number of epochs to cultivate to the point where she could merge with her original body.

"The Ghost Law and Heaven Law correspond to part of the power of the Earth and Heaven respectively. The Ghost Law is a coincidence, but the Heaven Law is not entirely. Are you trying to let her comprehend the three paths of cultivation?"

Qing Xuan shook his head: "This is not my arrangement, it is her own destiny, I just go with the flow."

Qinglian nodded: "The natural earth power protection of Nvqing comes from Hou Tu, plus the gourd returned by the Three Pure Ones, especially the "Duren Sutra" given by Yuqing, which is in line with the earth power and evolved into this "Ghost Law", which can indeed be regarded as a coincidence."

“And the Heavenly Law mainly comes from the gourd that Haotian returned. Haotian did it deliberately. Not only does it contain traces of the laws of heaven, but it also contains some of the authority of the gods in heaven. That is the core of the evolution of the Heavenly Law. As for Haotian’s purpose, it is also very clear.”

Qingxuan took over the words and said casually.

"After all, Haotian knows his limits, so he directly put some of his own intentions on the surface. He knows that hiding things will not please people, so I did not refuse. After all, this is indeed a good thing for Nu Qing. As for Haotian's purpose, it is nothing more than to connect the relationship between the Heaven and the Underworld and promote the construction of the three systems."

How could Qingxuan not see Haotian's little thoughts? But this little thought was within the scope of his tolerance.

No matter what, it was indeed Qingxuan's own intervention in the affairs of the Witch Clan that led to the current situation.

The power of the witch clan has been preserved too completely, resulting in the underworld's power being quite exaggerated.

Of course, it is also because the underworld has such exaggerated power that it can ensure the normal operation of reincarnation.

Otherwise, Qingxuan would not dare to give out the alternative method of becoming a saint by creating the world and uniting the Dao easily, as it would easily cause trouble.

If the cycle of reincarnation is disrupted, it will cause a lot of trouble, and Qingxuan doesn't like trouble.

However, the foundation of the underworld is a bit difficult for the ancient heaven to deal with.

Even though Hou Tu had no interest in fighting for power and the Wu clan was under her control and did not cause any trouble, Haotian did not dare to say anything about the affairs of the underworld, and communication between the two sides was a big problem.

It is not impossible for heaven and hell to be independent of each other.

However, while the two sides are independent, they must also be interconnected and collaborative in order to build a complete and unified order.

Who can take on the role of coordinator?

It was obvious that Haotian already had this idea in mind when it came to Heng'e.

Unfortunately, Chang'e herself is not important enough and can only play a limited role. She cannot serve as a bridge between heaven and earth, and between heaven and hell.

Therefore, when Nu Qing was born, Haotian had some considerations in this regard, and only then gave her an authority similar to that of a priesthood.

The reason why it is similar to a priesthood rather than actual priesthood authority is that there is a reason for it. It is very similar to Chang'e's Taiyin Star Lord, but his status is more transcendent.

As a direct disciple of the Qingqiu lineage, Nvqing has enough weight in herself.

In addition, Houtu has a good relationship with the Qingqiu lineage, so if Nvqing were to take up such a position, Houtu would most likely approve it. If it were someone else, even if he was also a disciple of a saint, it would not work.

The witch clan is not a very compassionate group. If they don't recognize you, no one can help you.

Haotian saw this and also saw the power of the earth on Nv Qing's body, so he went with the flow.

As long as Nu Qing herself is willing, she will immediately be recognized by both the Heaven and the Underworld. There are "Heavenly Laws" that determine the fortune and misfortune of the living, and there are "Ghost Laws" that determine the merits and demerits of the dead. This authority is indeed enormous.

In particular, she can control the merits and demerits of living beings, and she can still control the merits and demerits of the dead. She can punish you twice legally and in compliance with regulations. Nv Qing is completely unaware of this now.

Connecting the merits and demerits of living beings before and after their death is actually a coordination between heaven and hell, and the establishment of a unified management order for living beings. This is Haotian's purpose.

Female youths do one job and get paid by two places, both in heaven and in hell.

Such power is even greater than that of the three officials of heaven, earth and water, especially in terms of actual power.

Of the three officials who have not yet returned to their positions, the Heavenly Official bestows blessings, the Earthly Official forgives sins, and the Water Official relieves disasters. Nüqing's "Heavenly Laws" and "Ghost Laws" are, to a certain extent, equivalent to some of the powers of the Three Officials.

Of course, in Qingxuan's view, this power is not important. What is important is the luck and momentum it brings to Nuqing.

To be honest, these fellow Taoists are all very sincere, but at the same time, they all have their own plans. Without offending him, each of them has his own purpose.

For example, Yuqing and Taiqing, especially Yuqing, they hope that Nvqing, a disciple of the Qingqiu lineage, can become a limiter. This is interesting.

First of all, he really saw the potential of the young woman. After all, her background is there.

Secondly, they were clearly counting on Qingxuan, or the Qingqiu lineage, to come forward and play a restraining role.

There is no need to explain the purpose of using Qingqiu as an external force to impose constraints.

It is easy to see who it is that makes them so concerned and want to establish rules to restrict them.

If you can't convince someone to set his own rules to constrain his disciples, then you hope to constrain them with external rules? In this way, you can avoid direct confrontation and conflict between your brothers?

Qingxuan didn't care about it. After all, that would happen in the future, not now.

Under the current circumstances, external constraints cannot solve the problem.

Qingxuan stretched, leaned towards Qinglian, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Seeing Qinglian looking at him, he added some water to her teacup.

"There's nothing to worry about Nuqing's affairs. Even though this guy doesn't seem like a good disciple, she still has to call me Master. I will keep an eye on her." Qingxuan put down the teacup and spoke.

Come to think of it, this guy hasn't properly paid homage to his master yet. She'll have to complete the etiquette of paying homage to her master in the future. The necessary sense of ceremony is still necessary, and the fine tradition of respecting teachers must not be forgotten, Qingxuan thought to himself.

"According to the time, it should be almost time for Yang Jian to go down the mountain."

Having said that, Qingxuan raised his hand to calculate the secrets of heaven, then frowned slightly and looked towards somewhere in the prehistoric world.

"Huh? This Peach Mountain has been tampered with by someone, attracting the power of the sun and the moon. There are even restrictions formed by the remnants of the order of the former Heavenly Palace. Let me see, is there a broken flag of the Zhoutian Xingdou Great Array? I see, that's interesting. Yang Jian will have to go through more twists and turns."

What was originally just ordinary suppression has now turned into a veritable imprisonment.

Especially the restrictions formed by the power of the sun and the moon and the remaining order of the demon clan's heaven are really tricky for ordinary people.

Qingxuan already roughly understood who had done it. These remnants of the demon clan's heaven were not something that ordinary people could get.

"Lu Ya, what a pity! You have such a good foundation, but you have been tainted by too much karma. You are trapped by it and cannot break free."

"Master Yu's concubine." Qinglian took a look and then calmly looked away, giving a reminder.

Qing Xuan just remembered this matter. Speaking of the cause and effect of Lu Ya, it was actually somewhat related to their Qingqiu lineage.

The Rain Master Concubine has been following the Sky Fox now, in the Heavenly Palace. The Rain Master Kingdom has also grown and developed, and is no longer what it used to be.

But I’m afraid Yu Shiqi will never forget what happened back then, as she was the direct victim.

"Forget it, let Tianhu and the others handle this matter themselves. Fellow Daoist Dijun...sigh, you are really not very good at disciplining children."

Qingxuan understood that he was born divine, did not understand human nature, and had no idea how to educate his children. After all, he was born with knowledge and did not have that kind of ignorant stage. He could not put himself in others' shoes and was inevitably negligent in teaching, unlike him who taught his disciples the same way.

Isn’t there Zulong Cang who is also a bad parent?

It’s just that Zulong was luckier. His eldest son, Qiuniu, was very ambitious and he didn’t need to teach him. His sons didn’t cause him trouble like the Ten Golden Crows did.

Qingxuan dipped his fingers into the tea in the cup, flicked his fingers, and the water droplets penetrated the void directly and fell directly to somewhere on the prehistoric land.

In response to Qingxuan's action, Qinglian just glanced at him sideways, flicked her hand, and replaced the tea in the cup.

Qingxuan picked up the replaced teacup and smiled.

A few hundred years is not a long time. Now that the matter of conferring the gods has come to an end, it is time to start preparing for many things.

What is more uncomfortable than being hit by an axe is that there is always a light of an axe hanging over your head, about to fall. Qingxuan really doesn't like this feeling.

Moreover, Qingxuan had a rough idea of ​​the extent to which the evolution of the prehistoric world might deviate to trigger this axe correction.

"There's nothing to worry about. It's just a flash of axe light. I can block it and grab the chance to escape. You do your job and leave the rest to me. I'll help you vent your anger later."

Qinglian spoke, her voice as cold and calm as ever, yet she spoke it as if it were a matter of course, without any hesitation or wavering, firm and confident, with a slight curve at the corner of her mouth, full of pride.

Qing Xuan nodded: "Well, don't be too polite, it's his fault that he always likes to threaten me."

"it is good."

……

The sky was clear when suddenly a stream of water fell from the void with such precision that it soaked the woman in black clothes who was lazily lying in the sun.

The young woman jumped up and looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly.

This was clearly not caused by the rain, which made her extremely angry, especially since the rain was filled with the rich fragrance of tea. How could someone actually throw tea at her? This was outrageous.

Nu Qing slapped the River Map and Luo Shu on her waist, and at the same time, small and exquisite gourds burst into fairy light. She was about to deduce the secret to see who was plotting against her.

However, she found that the strange ruler in her sleeve was vibrating slightly, and a vague sense of consciousness came from it, which made her stunned. She put away the River Map and Luo Shu in disappointment.

"Master? How can you be called a master if you bully your own disciples?" Nu Qing was very dissatisfied, but instinctively made her dare not say anything more.

She had never met the master that the Measure Heaven Ruler mentioned, and according to what the Measure Heaven Ruler said, her master was a petty person who held grudges, had a strong sense of revenge, had no shame, and was insidious and cunning. If she said anything bad about him, she would probably be punished, so she didn't dare to say anything.

The measuring ruler hummed, and Nv Qing nodded in understanding. She glanced at the sky cautiously, her cheeks puffed up, then she released the captured mount and flew in one direction.
