The founder of all religions

Li Duobao, such a name seems ordinary, even a bit rustic.

At that time, people in the villages and towns at the foot of Luofu Mountain often gave their children similar names, such as Duobao, Duozi, Longevity, Laifu, Wangcai, etc.

But it was such an ordinary name, or rather such an ordinary young man, that caught Li Mo's attention, as if a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in the dark. It was such a wonderful fate.

"Are you a monk here too?"

At this moment, Li Duobao asked.

"That's right!" Li Mo responded casually.

"Can you take me out?"

Li Duobao looked at Li Mo timidly. Apparently, he was a little resistant to the fate that he had brought here for no reason.

"Okay, I'll take you with me when I go out."

Li Mo smiled and nodded, saying that Tianqi Palace wanted to send out this brat whose body couldn't keep Fazang, and he was just doing a favor.

"Thank you!"

Li Duobao rolled up his trouser legs, stood up from the pond, and bowed deeply to Li Mo.

"Fellow Taoist, let's go."

At this moment, Ling Xuzi urged him and glanced at Li Duobao intentionally or unintentionally.

"please."

Li Mo turned around and followed Ling Xuzi.

"do not forget……"

Li Duobao's voice came from behind, with a hint of solemnity.

"I won't forget it." Li Mo waved his hand and promised again.

"Is there anything different about that brat? How come fellow Taoists value him so much?" Ling Xuzi asked.

"I just feel there is some fate."

Li Mo shook his head, but he didn't find anything special about Li Duobao.

Upon seeing this, Ling Xuzi did not continue to ask questions, but led Li Mo into the central hall.

"Everyone, please wait here. I have something important to discuss with fellow Daoist Li."

Ling Xuzi stopped everyone, implying that he wanted to talk to Li Mo alone.

Seeing this, Li Mo just nodded and signaled everyone to wait here.

Tianqi Palace spent so much time and effort searching for him all over the world. If it was just to meet and chat, it would be strange.

"Fellow Taoist, come with me."

As he spoke, Ling Xuzi led Li Mo into the back hall. The ancient stone door slowly opened, and a mysterious wave came from inside.

"This is……"

When Li Mo stepped into it, he saw that the void was floating here, filled with mysterious runes, and faintly turned into a huge portal, like hanging in the sky, attracting immortal gods.

"The projection of Xuantian Immortal Sect...here is..." Li Mo was thoughtful. He felt the aura of Xuantian Immortal Sect, which was extremely strong. Even in the dark, he could feel a terrifying will. Sleeping.

"This place is the retreat place for the past palace masters of Tianqi Palace, and it is also the place where we protect our life and death..."

Ling Xuzi said solemnly: "Here, we can communicate with God."

"God!?"

Li Mo was stunned for a moment, then quickly woke up.

What Ling Xuzi calls "God" should be the will of [Xuantian Celestial Sect]. Even the innate holy weapons can give birth to some instinctive consciousness, not to mention [Xuantian Celestial Sect] is a magical weapon.

This is not only the center of Tianwai Mountain, but also a bridge to communicate with the outside world.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the core of Xuantian Immortal Sect.

"If I could retreat here and refine the [Eight Treasures Sutra Tower], the Monk King wouldn't be able to sense it even if he took his head out."

At this moment, Li Mo knew that he had come to the right place. This place was the best place for him to refine the [Eight Treasure Sutra Building].

Qingping Sword will definitely be able to enter the ranks of [King-grade Saint Weapon] here.

"Since it is a forbidden area of ​​Tianqi Palace, why did the palace owner bring me here?" Li Mo asked calmly.

"The palace masters of the past dynasties were able to reach the sky and sense the outside world..."

A look of sadness appeared on Ling Xuzi's face: "So I know that no matter how wonderful this world is, it is just a false illusion..."

"Xuantian Immortal Sect...the magic weapons left by Li Zu are indeed unparalleled in the world..."

"In fact, it cannot be regarded as a false illusion... everything in Xuantian Immortal Sect is real..."

"so what?"

Ling Xuzi raised his eyebrows and interrupted Li Mo's words.

"You should know that in this world, it is impossible to achieve enlightenment. Even gaining enlightenment to the True King is extremely difficult..."

"Compared to the real world, this place is like a mirror, after all." Ling Xuzi said solemnly.

"The Palace Master is already a true king-level expert. He can ascend and leave at any time to the wider world outside."

Li Mo knew that once the masters in Tianqi Palace understood the true king, they could use this place to ascend and go to the outside world.

When they get there and realize the real world, their strength will improve by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.

"The broader world... is just a slave to others!" Ling Xuzi sneered.

Being able to communicate with the will of the [Xuantian Immortal Sect] in this forbidden area, the previous Tianqi Palace masters naturally knew that this world was just a pasture left by Li Zu, and they were just captive creatures.

Even if you ascend and go to the outside world...

To put it bluntly, he was just a domestic slave of the Li family ancestral hall.

"Palace Master, you are serious. Real king-level masters are rare even outside." Li Mo whispered softly.

Although these people have received the help of Dazang, they can understand the true king in this world with incomplete laws. Their talents are so strong that it is unimaginable. Once they get outside, they will definitely advance by leaps and bounds.

It may not be possible to achieve enlightenment, but if there is great hope to go further, it is indeed too much to say that one is a slave to others.

"Fellow Taoist, you may not know the weight of that ancestral hall..."

"Some things have been decided from the moment of birth." Ling Xuzi waved his hand.

Born in that ancestral hall, one is born to be a nobleman, high and mighty, with the appearance of an immortal.

Born in the Xuantian Immortal Sect, he was destined to become a vassal of that ancestral hall.

"Which of the past lords of Tianqi Palace is not an unparalleled figure? In this world, almost all of them stand at the top..."

Ling Xuzi sighed quietly: "Those ancestors, their lives are a legend. They were amazing when they were young, made great progress, achieved the highest level, were worshiped by everyone, and embarked on the road to immortality..."

"But after ascending, he became a servant..."

"Fellow Taoist, isn't this fate ironic?"

When Li Mo heard the words, he remained silent. As long as someone has a place, there will be a class, and even those who practice Buddhism are inevitable.

Some people's identities are predetermined at birth, unless you are strong enough to rewrite the rules.

"Palace Master..." Li Mo opened his mouth, really not knowing what to say.

He actually felt that Ling Xuzi was too pessimistic. No matter how transcendent the Li clan's ancestral hall was, a majestic true king-level powerhouse could still be regarded as a slave and run around at will.

You must know that even outside, if the enlightened person does not come out, the true king is the pinnacle existence.

How could such a great person be looked down upon?

Ling Xuzi looked at Li Mo and shook his head, but said nothing. He knew that the class gap was beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Such a disparity in status had nothing to do with realm and cultivation, but a kind of shackles in the dark.

Just like your dog, even if it can talk, walk, and even help you make money, in your eyes, he is just a dog after all, a capable dog.

"I invite fellow Taoists here this time because I have something to ask for."

Ling Xuzi changed the subject and spoke.

"Here comes the real show."

Li Mo's heart moved and he nodded: "Palace Master, please speak frankly."

"I want fellow Taoists to help me find something."

"What?" Li Mo couldn't help but ask, raising his eyebrows.

"Ten Thousand Soul Banners!"

"ah!?"

Li Mo was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Ling Xuzi would make such a request. He and the Ten Thousand Soul Banner were not even close to each other.

"Fellow Taoists must also know... More than three hundred years ago, a demonic master emerged from the Xuantian Immortal Sect and refined the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, causing a catastrophe. Unknown how many lives were buried in it."

Ling Xuzi saw Li Mo's doubts and explained: "The Ten Thousand Souls Demon Ancestor also came from the outside world..."

Having said this, a wry smile appeared on Ling Xuzi's face. The world they had guarded for generations was nothing more than a training ground for those superior beings from the outside world.

"I know." Li Mo nodded.

Could he not know? The ancestor who caused the catastrophe was Black Sword, so it should be his...grandfather! ?

I wonder how the other party would feel if they knew that Li Mo and Ancestor Wanhun were from the same lineage and were related by blood.

"This man is crazy and cold-blooded... I don't know how many murders he committed back then... I heard that he has no descendants outside..."

"..."

"But the Ten Thousand Souls Banner has been left behind, and it has not yet been born."

"Fellow Taoist is from the outside world, and may be related to this treasure. In addition, with the help of fellow Taoist, there will definitely be unexpected gains."

Ling Xuzi was not sure that Li Mo would be able to find the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

In his opinion, Li Mo and the Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Souls both came from the outside world. For so many years, the local natives had found nothing. Perhaps only the monks who also came from the outside world could find the Ten Thousand Souls Flag.

Furthermore, even Evil Prajna died in Li Mo's hands. With such ability, he must have more hope than others.

"this……"

Li Mo curled his lips, feeling a little unreliable. No one could find it for three hundred years. How could he?

What's more, the world is so big, and looking for such a treasure is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Furthermore, what if Heijian took this treasure out back then?

Who does he leave here for?

"Fellow Taoist, you don't have to look for a needle in a haystack. I have some clues here, following the traces of the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Ancestor... Regardless of whether there is any harvest or not, I can agree to your request..."

"Even if I use all the strength of Tianqi Palace, I will not hesitate. And...if fellow Taoist really finds the Ten Thousand Souls Flag, I will only borrow it for three days...and I will definitely return it after three days."

"Is there such a good thing!?" Li Mo was tempted.

Regardless of whether he can find the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, Tianqi Palace owes him a favor. Even if he finds it, the other party will just borrow it. In other words, he will get a treasure for nothing.

This kind of business is a guaranteed profit without loss.

"Can I practice retreat here?" Li Mo blurted out.

"here?"

Ling Xuzi was stunned for a moment, and then continued to ponder. After all, this is the forbidden area of ​​Tianqi Palace. Only the palace owner can enter in the past. Bringing an outsider like Li Mo in today is an exception. If he is allowed to retreat here... …

"Okay." Ling Xuzi nodded and agreed to Li Mo's request.

"Okay, it's settled, I'll set off now."

Li Mo became interested and didn't want to waste any time.

"This jade slip contains many clues about the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, which should be useful to fellow Taoists."

Ling Xuzi took out a jade slip from the void. The records on it were the top secrets of Tianqi Palace.

"Thank you."

Li Mo nodded, glanced at the jade slip in his hand, and turned to leave.

Ling Xuzi looked at the direction where Li Mo disappeared, his eyes became cold and gloomy.

"Are you sure he can find the Ten Thousand Souls Banner?"

At this moment, a hoarse voice came from Ling Xuzi's shadow, echoing in the cold Forbidden Palace.

"I don't know... but this is my last chance..."

"I will ascend and leave soon." Ling Xuzi said in a deep voice.

"I have practiced for a lifetime and have been invincible all the way. If I become a slave to others, it would be better for me to perish."

The Lord of Tianqi Palace is almost invincible in this world. He is high above and respected by the people of the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first person.

Ascension is a glorious thing, but it has fallen into slavery. Who can accept such a gap! ?

So, Ling Xuzi wants to make a last attempt. Once he succeeds, he can get rid of this fate that seems like a curse.

"The risk is too great..."

"The path of cultivation is just like this, there are only four paths."

"One is immortal, two is god, three is reincarnation, four is dust... If I can't be high above, I would rather be annihilated into dust." Ling Xuzi's eyes revealed a trace of determination and madness.

"Even if he finds the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, are you sure you can control Xuantian Immortal Gate?"

In the shadow, the hoarse voice sounded again.

Xuantian Immortal Gate, this supreme magic weapon has no owner since Li Zu became a Taoist. Although it has been hidden in Xuantian Pavilion, no one can really drive this magic weapon.

Not even the people in the ancestral hall.

It seems to be waiting for its real owner.

"No mistake... Li Zu once said that after a thousand years, Xuantian Immortal Gate will welcome its real owner..."

Ling Xuzi told the biggest secret of Tianqi Palace's inheritance from generation to generation.

Before Li Zu became a Taoist, he left a passage about the master of Xuantian Xianmen...

"All the Dharma treasures in the world belong to me, and the treasures of the heavens can be called the king..."

Ling Xuzi murmured softly: "I guess, if I can contain the Dharma treasures of the world with my body, I can become the real master of Xuantian Xianmen..."

"But human power is limited, how can one person contain so many Dharma treasures?" Ling Xuzi's eyes were shining with a different kind of brilliance.

The Ten Thousand Souls Banner gave him hope. With the presence of ten thousand souls, he could share the risks and pressures, contain the Dharma treasures of the world, and become the master of Xuantian Xianmen.

"This is my last hope." Ling Xuzi's voice was low, and there was expectation in his eyes, but there was still some doubt.

All the Dharma treasures in the world belong to me... He has already comprehended it, but he still has no clue about the second half of the sentence "The treasures of the heavens can be called the king".

"The treasures of the heavens can be called the king... What does it mean?" Ling Xuzi murmured softly, revealing a look of deep thought.
