"The King of Shambhala of Nanfangbuzhou has arrived..."

"Master Jin Yuan, the owner of God Realm Silver Village, has arrived..."

"Emperor Xiao Li of the Free City of Dongsheng Divine Continent has arrived..."

"..."

As distinguished guests arrived one after another, Tang Emperor Li Shimin and the kings had no time to continue chatting and began to receive important guests one after another.

The good time is approaching, and those important people are coming one after another!

Du Long and Tang Xuanzang were not idle either, and began to help greet some familiar guests. The two peak Bodhisattva realm experts personally welcomed the guests, which definitely moved the guests from all sides.

People gradually felt that under the governance of Tang Emperor Li Shimin, the Tang Dynasty gradually showed a strength that no power, big or small, dared to underestimate. The power of the Tang Dynasty was gradually growing!

"The Lord of Vajra City of Nanfanbuzhou, Lipoduo Bodhisattva, has arrived..."

Along with singing a salute, Du Long and Tang Xuanzang looked at each other, directed their distinguished guests to enter the banquet site, and then joined hands to greet the floating Li Poduo!

After the three brothers exchanged polite greetings, Li Poduo said with a smile: "Senior Sister Guan Zizai asked me to bring you a message in advance. She is in retreat to consolidate her current state of cultivation and cannot be invited to attend the wedding banquet. Let you two brothers and sisters take care of you a little more!"

"Bodhisattva... Oh no! Now I should call you Senior Sister Avalokitesvara. Senior Sister has just broken through and reached the realm of Buddha. She should really consolidate it!" Tang Xuanzang subconsciously shouted out the familiar title again out of habit, In the end, he was corrected.

"That's right!" Li Poduo waved her hands and said, "There are so many guests today, so you two fellow apprentices don't need to all gather around me, just go about your business!"

"Well... I will escort senior brother to the banquet site. Senior brother Xuanzang will continue to accompany His Majesty the Emperor here to welcome all the guests! Senior brother, please come with me!"

Du Long was not willing to neglect Li Poduo, his senior brother who had been protecting him with all his strength since he ascended to the God Realm, so he immediately personally led him to the banquet site.

"Junior Brother Du Long!" Li Poduo did not reject Du Long's kindness.

It seemed that she wanted to chat with him privately, but Li Poduo stared at Du Long with extremely burning eyes, and said with emotion: "Senior brother, I have watched you grow up to this day. You began to be recognized by the Bodhi Taoist tree. At that time, you were only in the realm of a god-level soul. As a result, you haven’t even reached an era yet! But you have already..."

"Senior brother! Are you going to praise me?! Be careful if you praise me too much, I will become proud and complacent, and then I will fail my senior brother's expectations!" Du Long made a small joke.

"Haha!" Li Poduo laughed loudly and said, "Senior brother, I'd better not praise you, lest you give up on yourself in the future and end up blaming me on senior brother!"

"Haha! It should be so!" Du Long also laughed.

"Hmm!" Li Poduo smiled and nodded: "Senior Brother, I will be relieved if you can neither be arrogant nor arrogant. I just want to remind you that with your current strength, you are still far away from the realm of the true most powerful Heavenly Emperor. The distance is small, don’t be blinded by your temporary achievements!”

"Thank you, senior brother!" Du Long responded gratefully: "On the star road in the southern ice field, I once faced the direct pressure of a powerful person in the divine realm. At that time, I felt like an ant facing an elephant. I don’t even have the ability to resist at all!”

"Alas!" Li Poduo sighed softly: "Although the difference is only one level, it is actually a huge difference. Otherwise, senior brother, I would not be stuck in the Heavenly Emperor realm for endless years, but never be able to break through. !”

"That's true!" Du Long agreed: "It's just like Senior Sister Guan Zizai, who is recognized by all parties in the divine world as the most powerful female Bodhisattva with extraordinary talents, but in the end she still had to go through it twice... to gain immeasurable merit. Only then did he break through and reach the realm of Buddha!"

"Of course!" Li Poduo nodded slightly and sighed: "Just like Junior Brother Jin Chanzi who was standing next to you just now, he will choose a path that suits him and move forward bravely just to accumulate enough merit!"

"..."

Du Long was stunned. Only then did he think about many issues.

I thought of the two senior brothers Xuanzang and Ksitigarbha of the Tang Dynasty, of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, and of Taiyi Zhenren who succeeded Avalokitesvara on his unfinished journey to the West!

All these people are different from me. My cultivation time is less than one epoch year. I have no idea what it feels like for those people to be trapped in the late stage of the Heavenly Emperor Realm and the perfect realm for endless years, but still unable to break through and reach the Divine Realm!

Many people, in order to break through and reach the realm of gods, have embarked on one completely different path after another. It seems that with the help of immeasurable merit, the chance of breaking through the final bottleneck will become much greater!

"Brother! If you want to break through and reach the realm of gods, do you have to find ways to obtain immeasurable merit?! If so, how do those evil people break through and reach the realm of gods?!" Du Long couldn't help but let go of the doubts in his heart! Asked.

"No!" Li Poduo replied with a smile: "If you want to break through to the realm of gods, the first condition is to understand the entire avenue."

"In this world, many truly powerful emperors are stuck at the last bottleneck. This bottleneck is extremely difficult to break through based on their own level of understanding of the way of heaven. Everything depends on personal chance!"

"So, people want to achieve breakthroughs by accumulating countless merits! There are also people who use various other means, but very few people finally achieve breakthroughs!"

"That's it!" Du Long nodded suddenly, and then secretly said: "The realization of an entire avenue has reached the final bottleneck... Such a person can be regarded as the true most powerful emperor, right?!"

"That's right!" Li Poduo said with a serious look: "Especially those who have reached the final bottleneck in their cultivation of the Avenue of Time and Space, their combat power will be even more terrifying, and they are the well-deserved leaders among all the powerful ones in the Divine Realm!"

"Then Senior Sister Guan Zizi entered the Buddha's body through the Dao of Space. She must be very powerful in the realm of gods, right?!" Du Long asked curiously.

"That's natural! This can be seen from the fact that she was able to kill the former God King of Light!"

Li Poduo answered patiently: "Enter the Tao through space. From now on, you can come and go without a trace in the space of the divine world, just like you were in the immortal world, becoming an invincible existence at the level of gods!"

"Senior Sister Guan Zizai, who has just achieved the realm of deity...isn't she also invincible?!"

"No, no!" Li Poduo waved his hand again and said: "She is only an existence with the strength of the early stage of the Divine Realm. Not to mention the other powerful gods who have understood two to three avenues, just rely on their divine power. Restraint can seal off a space so that she can't even teleport!"

"Alas!" Du Long sighed softly: "After all, what Senior Sister Guan Zizai lacks is that her training time is too short. Otherwise, with her talent, she will definitely be an invincible existence in the divine realm. !”

"Of course, there is time for practice, and... in the process of practice and growth, you must not fall, otherwise everything will be in vain. From ancient times to the present, how many gods, gods, and powerful men with extraordinary talents have fallen on the road of growth. ?!" Li Poduo agreed.

"I see!"

Du Long finally understood what Li Poduo wanted to express to him. After going around in a big circle, it was clear that he wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible, so as not to fall into the early stages of growth, which would be more than worth the gain.

He finally understood why this senior brother, who had reached the late stage of Bodhisattva realm earlier than Avalokitesvara, was willing to stay low-key in the Vajra City and become a guardian Vajra of the Vajra Bodhi tree!

"As long as you understand! I'm going to catch up with some old friends, and you can go and do your own thing!"

After seeing off Li Poduo, Du Long was not in a hurry to go back to the area to greet the distinguished guests. Instead, he walked back leisurely while recalling the conversation he had just had with Li Poduo in his mind.

‘Do you want to keep a low profile? ! I can't be like Senior Brother Lipoduo, with my heart as still as water and all four elements empty! Everyone will have their own different path to take. Compared with Senior Brother Lipoduo's conservative pursuit of stability, it may not be suitable for you! ’

‘It’s like. . . Although Senior Brother Jin Chanzi has nothing in the Four Elements, he doesn't like to fight and kill, and he is a different kind of stability seeker, but what he does has to be admired. The immeasurable merits he has created, and when accumulated to a certain level, he is absolutely It’s a rhythm that defies heaven! ’

‘And that senior brother Ksitigarbha. . . How many people in the world have that kind of thing? . . If I don’t go to hell, who will go to hell because of the spirit of sacrificing one’s life for righteousness? ! He also made a divine vow not to become a Buddha until he passed through the empty hell? ! ’

'and I? ! In this life, I have too many loved ones waiting for me to protect them, too many obsessions that I can’t let go of, and too many worries that linger on. . . ’

‘That’s all! No matter how much you think and do, no matter whether you can achieve the supreme status of gods and Buddhas in this life, no matter whether the final outcome is good or bad, life or death, fighting from the mortal world to the divine world in this life, being able to achieve today's achievements is already worthy of this life. ! ’

Shaking his head, Du Long threw away the many distracting thoughts in his mind, and then strode forward. You could see that his whole body's energy and spirit became somewhat different.

This change is very mysterious, but it is very necessary for a practitioner like him who has a relatively short growth period!

He is not a Buddha who is empty of all four elements. Since he understands that he has concerns, he naturally needs to wipe away the dust stained in his heart from time to time. He must always keep his mind like a mirror and clearly discern what his original intention is.

Only in this way can he go further and climb higher!

"Master Kunlun Taiyi has arrived..."

Not far away, a song of singing attracted Du Long's attention. From a distance, he saw Taiyi Zhenren coming with Huang Tianhua, Tengchong, Lin Mo and Mo Gang!

Du Long's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately greeted him excitedly.

Seeing the familiar figures of this team, he felt extremely excited and excited in his heart, but also secretly knew that his leisurely days were probably coming to an end! (To be continued)
