Chapter 40: The horrified Patriarch makes threatening remarks and wants to fight against power.

No one in the world is not afraid of death, especially those who live longer and are in higher positions. It is said that the older people get, the less courageous they become, and those in high positions are greedy for power. The mystery here is nothing more than this.

Because of the various bad appearances of the Hongyuan Patriarch, Tai Dao people did not despise him, but understood him very well.

For example, for monks, the first calamity of the Earthly Immortal is to understand life and death and put aside fear. It can be seen that even monks must treat the wonderful principles between life and death with caution, let alone such people who only have strength but no Taoist heart.

Of course, speaking of monks, it does not mean that people who have survived this calamity will no longer be afraid of death. Tai Dao people are still afraid of death.

But after surviving this catastrophe, walking between life and death, looking back and appreciating it, with this understanding, I will be able to be calmer when encountering such catastrophes in the future, both good and bad. Unlike the Patriarch of Hongyuan, as soon as he knew that there was no chance of survival, he was in chaos and lost his face.

This kind of person is really beyond the eyes of Tai Taoist. But being an opponent is a blessing.

The Taoist smiled and looked at the Hongyuan Patriarch who was crawling like an earthworm. He smiled slightly and said, "Well, since you are so sincere, I will not hesitate to point out a clear path for you."

Patriarch Hongyuan looked very happy and kowtowed repeatedly: "Please give me some advice!"

Tai Taoist said: "I don't know why Setolak watched you come to see me without being moved. If it were me, I would have deprived you of the original power that was given to you and crushed you to death with one finger. But No matter what his plans are, it is fate that you come to see me. God has the virtue of good life, and everything must have a glimmer of hope, but to obtain this glimmer of hope, you have to pay a price."

"I have no choice but to survive and let the Taoist drive me." How could Hongyuan Patriarch have such a small idea? Although he is also very scheming, his so-called cleverness turns out to be misleading, because the more he thinks about it, the more afraid he becomes. Right now, my heart is just blank, I just want to survive.

"good."

The Taoist clasped his hands and laughed loudly: "Setolak didn't deprive you of your origins first, but let you come to see me, pushing the power of the world in front of me. If I don't take it, how can I be worthy of his kindness? Listen up. If you want me to be protected, then hand over the original power given to you by Settorak!"

Having said this, the Taoist's gaze was like a torch, and he covered the Hongyuan Patriarch fiercely: "Thinking about this, you can't make up your mind for a while. The poor Taoist doesn't force it. He only has one sentence - if you want to survive, hand over your origin. "

Do you know why?

Taoist Taoist Taihong came to this world following a trace of the remaining origin of Settorak's clone. Without making a sound, he first took away nearly 10% of the world's power. Later, the Taiyi Dao people came here, taking their disciples as the vanguard, and taking advantage of the rising tide of rebels, they overthrew the Blood God Sect and established the foundation of the Immortal Dao. Now they have taken over most of the human Dao in this world.

The so-called humanity does not only refer to human beings, but to all intelligent creatures. As long as there is intelligence, species that can build civilization and have an impact on the world are all within humanity.

Or, humanity is the way of civilization.

The authority of the world should be the way of heaven, and the way of humanity is within the way of heaven.

Roughly speaking, as long as there is civilization in each world, depending on whether humanity is strong or not, its share of world power ranges from 10% to 50%. The minimum is no less than 10%, and the maximum is no more than half.

In this crimson world, the share of world power accounted for by humane energy is only about 30%. Now this 30% of authority, two out of three, has been in the hands of Tai Taoist. As long as Dongshi brings the power of Taiyi Sect and unifies the world of humanity, at least two-thirds of them will be taken over by Taiyi Sect.

In addition, the Taoist has gained the heart of creating a god, and he also has 10% of the authority. Seize the earth's ancestral veins to refine treasures, and gain roughly half of your power.

As a result, more than 40% of the world's power has fallen into the hands of Tai Dao people.

Under the circumstances, Settorak still has at most 50% of his power left - roughly half of which falls on the Thirteen Patriarchs!

As long as they take this half of the authority, the Tai Taoists can compete with Settorak.

What Taiyi is afraid of is nothing more than the power of the world in his hands. He himself was severely injured, and according to Tai Taoist estimates, he could not move at all. Once they meet, only the power of this world, because of its vast power, makes Tai Tao people fearful.

But as long as half of the power in this world is controlled by the Taiyi people, Setorak will no longer have the advantage, and the Taiyi people dare to let go and strike with thunder.

If all thirteen Patriarchs had arrived today, the Tai Dao people would not have been nagging at Hongyuan Patriarch, they would have just turned their hands to suppress it, and would have just taken it. But there was only one person, which was useless, so he threatened him and forced him to follow the plans of the Taiyi people.

After listening to what Taiyi said, the Hongyuan Patriarch looked hesitant as expected.

Setorak gave each of the thirteen Patriarchs a share of authority, which was the foundation of the Patriarch's strength and the biggest support for his rampage over the past many years.

Under such circumstances, let alone Tai Taoist, even if Settorak wanted to deprive him of this power, he would not be willing to do so.

It's obviously about surrendering. Once you lose your strength, what else can you rely on?

But on the one hand, one is worried about one's life, and on the other hand, one's greatest reliance is actually in conflict. What choice does one make? Patriarch Hongyuan felt even more confused.

There was silence in the back garden.

Hongyuan Patriarch was struggling with the trade-offs and could not make up his mind. The four thin monkeys stood aside like statues, seemingly not listening or listening. Dong Shi's heart was spinning and he was thinking a lot.

Tai Taoist looked indifferent and didn't care.

Only Hong Lin'er would nuzzle Tai Duo for a while and act coquettishly, and then pick up Dong Shi's clothes and tear them back and forth, which was really naughty.

After a long time, the thin monkey standing aside rolled his eyes and suddenly said: "This man's life is the first priority. Without his life, everything is gone... I don't know who said when we came here, Coward, that one is so confident, tsk tsk, now that I think about it, I’m still shaken!”

The person who said this was clearly the Patriarch of Hongyuan. Patriarch Hongyuan couldn't hear Shouhou's sarcasm, but after thinking about it, he felt it made sense. Making a decision requires courage. He even dared to come to see the Taiyi people. He had given up all worries. What else was there to be afraid of?

When his heart suddenly trembled, he took a deep breath, looked determined, raised his head and gritted his teeth and said: "But it depends on the Taoist's orders!"

The Tai Taoist nodded slightly, flicked his broad sleeves and said, "I think you are also a decisive person, but the other twelve people may not be as decisive as you, or they may not be willing. In this way, you go If you bring those twelve people here, I will remember your merits. If it succeeds, you will benefit from it."

Patriarch Hongyuan sighed and bowed: "You must obey the order."

Tai Taoist released his restraints and waved his sleeves to indicate that he could leave.

Patriarch Hongyuan stood up, turned around, his back was a little lonely, but he paused for a moment, suddenly turned back and bowed, and said: "Master Taoist, if I am willing to join Taiyi Sect, like them, I will also be a protector, Taoist Are you willing to take him in?"

Tai Taoist couldn't help laughing when he heard this, pointing at the patriarch and saying: "You are also a spirited person, but with your character, it will be difficult for you to join my sect."

Hongyuan Patriarch's energy and energy suddenly dropped again.

But suddenly, someone from Taiyi said: "But if you can make some contributions, it's not impossible."

Then he became energetic and nodded seriously: "I will not let you down, Taoist!"

"Yes." Tai Taoist waved his sleeves and drove him away: "Go."

Seeing Hongyuan Patriarch tearing open the void and jumping in, Dong Shicai raised his head and said, "Master, do you really want to accept him as a protector elder?"

He added: "The Patriarch who has been deprived of his original power is probably no different from me, and his character is really low. Although Settorak has enslaved them, after all, for many years, everything about them has been Cyprus. Torak gave it to me. If I say betrayal, I will betray you and I will not be the son of a man.”

When Taiyi heard this, he shook his head and laughed. He didn't care that there were four thin monkeys beside him, and said: "What is the guardian of the sect? What more expectations and requirements can be expected from the person who protects the sect? As long as he is obedient, no matter what his background and character are? "

He added: "What's more, in the sect, although the guardian elders have a transcendent status, they are not allowed to participate in the religious affairs of the sect. So, what is the barrier?"

To put it bluntly, the guardian elders are just a group of thugs. As long as you obey, all other trivial matters can be put aside.

Dongshi understood it and nodded without mentioning it at the moment.

Shouhou and the others on the side were a little annoyed when they heard it, but what could Taiyi do in front of him? I had to endure it.

After a while, Dong Shi said again: "What about the other twelve people? Are they also the guardians of the sect?"

Tai Taoist shook his head: "Except for the so-called Thirteen Patriarchs, who dared to come to see the Hongyuan Patriarch as his teacher, the rest are probably as rotten as dead wood and cannot be carved. What's the use of them? They ruined the sect for nothing. The atmosphere. Even for the Patriarch of Hongyuan, it depends on whether he survives in the end. If he is still alive, why not give him a protector? If he dies early, there is no need to mention it again. "

Dongshi was slightly startled after hearing this, and said, "But Master just now..."

Tai Taoist laughed: "He asked me to protect his life, but the prerequisite is that he must pay the price first. Now that he has not paid the corresponding price, how can you protect him as my teacher?"

Dong Shi's mind changed and he felt it made sense, but said: "So... if he goes back, the consequences will be unpredictable."

Tai Taoist nodded slightly: "Although I don't know Settorak's plan, I will not let go of these rebellions easily. Whether he can survive this time depends on his luck."

After saying this, he dropped the subject and said to Dong Shi: "Don't bother with such matters. With your cultivation level, you are still far behind. The most important thing is to unify the thirteen countries as soon as possible and lay the foundation of our sect." of."

Then he looked at the four thin monkeys: "You and the four of you must do your best to help my disciple, and you must not be disobedient in the slightest. If I have any shortcomings, you will die without mercy."

The four of them lowered their heads, not even daring to say anything.

Dong Shi said at the side: "The four of you are the guardian elders of the sect. I am just an outer disciple with a shallow cultivation and limited knowledge. I really need to rely more on the four elders. If we get along with each other in the future, if we do something wrong, the four elders will Just ask, I’d be grateful.”

The four of them felt relieved and had a lot of good impressions of Dong Shi's humility.

Tai Taoist smiled and nodded, raised his hand and shot out four spiritual lights: "This is the guardian of the sect who specializes in the Five Spirit Mysterious Techniques. One is five, and five is one. It only depends on your understanding. If you can understand one, you will only get one." If you can fully understand it, it will be an opportunity. Since you have become the guardians of my sect, you will not begrudge the benefits."

The skinny monkey had actually acquired the technique a long time ago, but Tai Taoist people appreciated his contribution and would not expose it to his face, so they made a show of it.

Slender Monkey was so grateful that he didn't mention it.
