Chapter 696 The Rise and Fall of the Yiqi Sect in the Upper Realm (V)

No matter what their status was in their lifetime, as long as they did not reach the point where they could affect reincarnation, these dead souls would definitely worry about what would happen to them in the next life.

The emergence of Buddhism and the solution it provided greatly alleviated the worries of this group of people, and they became the most loyal supporters of Buddhism.

And this group of people, the so-called earth demons in the description of the calamity, sought to establish an independent reincarnation system that rewards good and punishes evil, and all this was destined to shake the ruling position of Taoism.

After all, when many Taoist sects recruited disciples or sent them to death, they promised that even if you died, as long as your soul was immortal, you would be able to do this and that in the next life?

When corruption became a legitimate benefit, or a privilege. The suggestion of Buddhism at this time was shaking the foundation of Taoism.

And from the effect point of view, one blow hit the soft spot, not only within the control of Taoism, but also in the South China Sea controlled by the sea clan, there were also many changes.

In essence, this is a battle against privilege. Whether in Taoism or in the demon clan, the inequality between the upper and the lower is far more serious than that of Buddhism, and this is the breakthrough of Buddhism.

All beings are equal; kings, princes, generals, and ministers, are they of the same kind? Similar sentences were endless in that period, and the old system and pattern faced a great impact.

In the upper realm, the only place that can be regarded as a stable place is the Northland and the North Sea under the control of Yiqi Sect. There are few people and few disputes.

As far as Yiqi Sect is concerned, an important thing happened at that time. It may not be very noticeable at first. It just caused a huge storm within Yiqi Sect, but this change will one day sweep the entire upper realm.

As mentioned before, Yiqi Sect has to face increasing pressure from extraterritorial demons inside, and outside, the expansion of land, acquisition of resources and recruitment of disciples are not progressing particularly smoothly.

When you are poor, you must change, and when you change, you will be connected, and when you are connected, you will last. The words of the Taoist scriptures still shine with their dazzling brilliance after tens of millions of kalpas.

Faced with difficulties, Yuan Jizi, the head of Yiqi Sect at that time, created a technique to solve the problem of insufficient resources.

Yes, you guessed it right. It is the "Yiqi Shangyuan Tongxuan Gong" known as the supreme scripture of Yiqi Sect. Of course, this name is the name later. At the beginning, the name of this scripture was "Huan Dun Yiqi Jing".

This Qi refers to the Taixu Qi that can reverse all spirits. There is no need to say more about Hun Dun. It refers to the Hun Dun Qi, which is the spiritual energy after the Taixu Qi is reversed to the extreme.

This Taoist method is a general outline. No matter what method, whether it is Qi Dao, force or law, it can be harmoniously integrated with it.

The emergence of this technique has epoch-making significance, and even Yiqi Sect changed its name because of it.

Yes, Yiqi Sect was not called Yiqi Sect at the beginning. It had other names. Because of this method, Yiqi Sect changed its name to Hun Dun Yiqi Sect. There are also names given by many other sects such as Hun Dun Sect and Taixu Sect. Yiqi Sect is the final name, and there are many twists and turns.

The technique is a good one, but in the eyes of the orthodox Taoist sect, it is more like a method of the devil. The Taixu Qi sounds righteous.

However, it can not only refine and rebel against many spiritual objects, but can even directly refine the blood and essence of the cultivator's body. Of course, in terms of conversion rate, it is still not as good as some magic methods, but it is not much different.

Although it looks gentle and generous, the bloody murderous intent revealed by the technique cannot be concealed in any way. For a period of time, Yiqi Sect was even privately called Chaos Demon Sect.

Although Yiqi Sect has this and that problem, it is still a part of Taoism anyway. Under the fiery offensive of Buddhism, it is most important to unite the internal and resist the external enemy. The difference between the primary and secondary contradictions.

In this way, the vast land in the south of the north opened its arms to Yiqi Sect. From rejecting it thousands of miles away in the past to wishing that Yiqi Sect would come to help quickly, it can be said to be a world of difference.

Yiqi Sect suffered the least damage in the chaos of the earth demons instigated by Buddhism, because the North is remote and the difference between the upper and lower levels is far less than that in other lands.

In other lands, the upper-class cultivators do not regard the lower-class cultivators as human beings at all. When there is a war, they drive them as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's mana. However, in order to continue the sect, the upper-class cultivators of Yiqi Sect will really sacrifice their lives to protect the lower-class cultivators.

The ideas of Buddhism cannot be spread here, because the North is like this. The privileges are not obvious. Even if it changes, how can it be changed?

The disciples of Yiqi Sect, who have been fighting against the outer demons for many years, directly used the Taixu Qi to forcibly refine it when facing the earth demons instigated by Buddhism. While defeating the enemy, they also improved their strength.

The boundless Buddhism was defeated in front of the Yiqi Sect disciples who were bloodthirsty. They were in twos and threes and could not make a difference.

Other sects had to pay for the Yiqi Sect to help them. Defeating the Earth Demon could improve their strength. During the Earth Demon Tribulation, the Yiqi Sect became a pillar that supported the sky.

Relying on the countless benefits gained in this tribulation, the Yiqi Sect's strength advanced by leaps and bounds. The sect's luck was like a rainbow, and Taiyi Immortals emerged in an endless stream, catching up with the first major sect, the Holy Spirit Sect.

This period was the most powerful period for the Yiqi Sect, without a doubt, and even today, it has not caught up.

Everyone in the world said that the Yiqi Sect was about to replace the Holy Spirit Sect and devour all living beings in the world, destroying the world. It was said to be a rumor, but when the disciples of the Yiqi Sect devoured living people and refined living souls, it was known to everyone and could not be concealed.

At this time, it was meaningless to care about where the rumors came from. When the external contradictions were temporarily eliminated, the internal contradictions became fierce again. The previous heroes became rats crossing the street that everyone wanted to beat.

When the birds are gone, the good bows are hidden; when the cunning rabbits die, the running dogs are cooked. Cross the river and demolish the bridge, and kill the donkey after it has done its job. This is the situation that Yiqi Sect was facing at that time.

Of course, this is just the reason behind it. The obvious fuse was that some elders of Yiqi Sect acted too eagerly, openly challenging the status of Shengling Sect and other major sects. Perhaps they were too poor before, and they saw the blessed land and wanted to occupy it because they were powerful, causing a lot of trouble.

The fuse detonated the inner uneasiness of everyone, and then Yiqi Sect exploded.

At that time, Yiqi Sect needed to deal with the extraterritorial demons coming from the North Sea Abyss. This was the destined task of the sect. Fortunately, it could use the luck artifact to persist for a while.

In addition, it was also necessary to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the various sects in the upper realm. Not only did the newly occupied land fall, but even the original root location-the vast north land-also fell.

It really doesn't take too long to fall from the peak to the bottom.
