Chapter Ninety-nine The Position of the Sovereign
Although those who practice Taoism should be indifferent to fame and fortune, the word "fame and fortune" cannot be indifferent to people's clubs. For a moment, many eyes looked towards the direction of Chengyuan Daojun.
They hope that the person who presides over Chengtian Dao will be himself. After all, once he presides over the overall situation of Chengtian Dao, it means that they will master endless resources, and perhaps they can make people go to a higher level.
A faint sarcasm flashed across Chengyuan Daojun's face, and the sarcasm flashed very quickly, just one or two people saw it.
And Fang Ling is exactly one of the people he saw.
Just as Fang Ling's thoughts flashed, he heard Chengyuan Daojun say lightly: "Yunyue, come and read the third decree!"
The third decree must have decided to inherit the leader of the outer sect of Tiandao. For a moment, many people's eyes became nervous.
When Yunyue Daozun was here, no one dared to have two hearts about the position of this sect's disciple. After all, Yunyue Daozun has been practicing for many years and has unparalleled power, but now it is different.
When Yunyue Daozun arrived at the inner sect, there were no leaders in the outer sect. As long as he felt that he was similar, no one wanted to take charge of the first path of the Yuanwu Lord’s world.
"Yun Ling, the leader of the outer sect of Chengtian Dao," Yun Yue Daozun was not quick, and when he pronounced the last two words, there was a hint of mockery in his words.
I don’t know who he was mocking, but the moment he heard this decision, many monks who inherited the Heavenly Dao changed their faces.
Especially Yunmou Dao Zun, his eyes were filled with unbelievable smell. He never expected that the sect leader outside Chengtian Dao would be Fang Ling.
What kind of virtue is Fang Ling? He is just a Taoist lord who has just defected to Chengtian Dao for more than a year. For the entire Chengtian Dao, Fang Ling is an outsider. He is not qualified to become the outer sect leader of Chengtian Dao.
But because the first disciple who questioned was already forced to get out by Yun Yue Daozun, no one was willing to be the first to be the first.
But countless gazes were all cast on Fang Ling's face at this moment. There was envy in their gaze, but more of them were extreme. It was distrust and irony...
Fang Ling had no time to pay attention to these gazes at this time. He was also a little panicked now and needed to calm down.
Although Fang Ling felt that he had a small position now, he had never thought that he would become the leader of the outer sect of Chengtian Dao.
In the eyes of most people, the inner sect of Chengtian Dao is just a few people. However, the outer sect of Chengtian Dao is different.
The outer sect that inherits the Heavenly Dao is three hundred Taoist lords, three thousand Taoist people, and ten thousand babies. The population alone in the region governed by it is more than one trillion.
The existence of such numbers has now fallen into the hands of Chengtian Dao Outer Sect, and it can even be said to fall into the hands of Fang Ling, which makes his heart very uneasy.
After all, there is a saying that something about pie falling from the sky is not necessarily a good thing. Fang Ling didn't think he had anything worthy of Chengyuan Daojun, so he didn't think it was a good thing.
What's more, the great rise of swordsmanship and the series of arrangements of Chengyuan Daojun have already shown that the Chengtian Dao Outer Sect is definitely not a good place to stay.
Without any hesitation, Fang Ling stepped out and respectfully said to Chengyuan Daojun above: "Disciple Yun Ling felt that he was not virtuous and incompetent, and he really could not bear the high position of the lord of Chengtian Dao Outer Sect."
"I would like to ask the master to see clearly and let other senior brothers take over this position. The disciples are willing to become an ordinary disciple of the inner sect."
An ordinary disciple of the inner sect, this is Fang Ling’s best requirement. He can enjoy the cool air with his back against a big tree. After listening to the sect for a hundred years, he can not only increase his cultivation, but also seem to be able to escape this great disaster.
However, many Taoist priests who didn't know the heavenly time had their eyes a little green when they heard Fang Ling give in to the position of the lord of the outer sect of Chengtian Dao.
Before Chengyuan Daojun could speak, a Taoist master who was close to Yunmou Daozun stepped out and said, "Master, Junior Brother Yun Ling has just entered our Chengtian Dao and made him the leader of our Chengtian Dao Outer Sect. Not to mention us, even ordinary disciples are quite dissatisfied."
As soon as he said this, several Taoist masters came out and said, "Disciples and others hope that Master will think twice before acting."
"Do you still remember the teachings of the Tao of Heaven?" Chengyuan Daojun finally spoke at this time.
His voice was not high, nor did he look angry, but one sentence made all the Daozun who stood up and spoke in a terrifying way.
As Taoist Lords who inherited the Heavenly Dao, how could they forget the teachings of the Heavenly Dao? The anger of Chengyuan Taoist Lord made most of them feel even more frightened. For a moment, all Taoist Lords knelt on the ground at the same time and said, "Disciples know their sins."
"Since you want to resist the order, come and press them into the Black Wind Cliff, and everyone will face the wall for thirty years." Chengyuan Daojun waved his sleeves and said unquestionably.
Several Taoist priests who were included in the inner sect together with Yunyue Daozun walked out immediately, rolled all of these Taoist priests with a treasure map, and flew out of Chengtian Palace.
At this moment, the other Taoist priests finally didn't dare to speak.
They knew that this meant that Chengyuan Daojun had decided, and if they were against it at this time, what was waiting for them would be a heavier punishment.
"You said you are not capable enough, so do you think I chose the wrong person?" Chengyuan Daojun's eyes fell on Fang Ling.
At this moment, Fang Ling felt that there was a mountain pressing heavily on him. More importantly, under the oppression of this mountain, he had no room for fighting back.
Looking at the Chengyuan Daojun with a gloomy face, Fang Ling suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He felt that if he objected again, the Chengyuan Daojun might just wipe him out.
The relationship between master and apprentice, hehe, Fang Ling is the second time to see the Taoist Lord Chengyuan. How could he expect this Taoist Lord to tell him about the relationship between master and apprentice?
After hesitating for a moment, Fang Ling still explained softly: "Disciple is afraid that he will not be able to do enough. He will cause harm to our reputation as the way of heaven."
"What will happen to Chengtian Dao in the future is not a matter of concern to you. From now on, you just need to do your own thing well."
When Chengyuan Daozun said this, he stood up from his actions and said in a deep voice: "From now on, Yun Ling will be the leader of the entire Chengtian Dao Outer Sect. His words represent the entire Chengtian Dao Outer Sect."
Although Chengyuan Daozun's voice was not high, these words spread throughout Jinhua Mountain and throughout Bilong Island.
At this moment, Fang Ling felt that his shoulders suddenly pressed against a big mountain.
However, compared with Chengtian Dao's burden, Fang Ling was more worried about why Chengyuan Daojun wanted to give up this position to himself.
Is this also a kind of abandonment?
Under the gaze of Chengyuan Daojun, Fang Ling ascended to the middle of Chengtian Palace, which is the position of the leader of the Chengtian Dao Outer Sect.
Also under the gaze of Chengyuan Daojun, three hundred Daozhe and three thousand Taoist people, except for the twelve disciples of the inner sect, all bowed three times and bowed nine times to him, the sect leader.
This etiquette shows that he began to take charge of the way of inheriting the heaven.
This etiquette means that from today on, he will be the sect leader of the Heavenly Dao.
Although the leader of the world's number one sect cannot be said to be the number one in the world, he can be said to be the number one among the Taoist masters.
This has nothing to do with cultivation!
But sitting on the throne that Chengyuan Daojun just made, although Fang Ling felt like looking down at the people of heaven and earth, he also felt a huge sense of crisis coming towards him.
The number one person in the world is not that easy to be.
Fang Ling was a tour guide in his previous life, but he also knew that few emperors who were the heads of all people in history could have a good end.
What's more, his current situation is still much worse than that of the ancient emperor. When he ascended the throne and accepted the monks below to bow three times and nine times, Fang Ling clearly felt the dissatisfaction, resentment and indifference in the eyes of the Taoist Lord below.
The word "indifference" can also be transformed into not taking it to heart. For Fang Ling now, the person who can keep him not taking it to heart is actually a good person.
After all, this is not taken seriously, it is just an attitude, and it has not been targeted everywhere as the sect leader.
What made him most uncomfortable was some people led by Yunmou Daozun, and these people were provocative in their eyes.
It is the eyes of those wolf who have strong strength among the animals and want to challenge the wolf king.
If it weren't for the Chengyuan Daojun here to support the formation, Fang Ling would never have thought that these people would salute him respectfully.
If it weren't for the Chengyuan Daojun here to press the formation, there wouldn't be any rituals here, and perhaps the entire Chengtian Dao would have fallen apart.
"It's been a matter of this. Ten days later, I will take the inner sect's people to Ziqing Palace to listen to the Tao. You will be there." Chengyuan Daojun waved his hand and the inner sect's disciples led by Yun Yue Daozun left neatly.
Fang Ling's heart was filled with envy for these people who were selected into the inner sect. He vaguely felt that these people were the Taoist ancestors who were determined to be protected by Chengtian Dao.
In other words, no matter how great the disaster is waiting for the way of heaven in the future, it has nothing to do with these people.
They are no longer people who inherit the laws of heaven, they are people who inherit the laws of heaven.
It's just a pity that I'm not among these people.
Just as Fang Ling's thoughts flashed, someone said, "My furnace of elixir is about to be opened in half an hour. Haha, Sect Master, let's take one step first!"
The person who spoke was a male Taoist priest who looked over fifties, with a huge head giving people a funny feeling.
But in the way of inheriting the heaven, no one thinks he is funny, because he is a Taoist master of the Three Tribulations.
A top three-tribulation Taoist Lord, although this person may not be able to rank among the top ten, there is definitely a position among the top 30 people.
Yundan Dao Zun is the first person in the Heaven Dao Zun. His alchemy method is very famous in the entire Yuanwu Lord world. (To be continued.)
