The spirit and soul can be passed on, but the body will rot and die, and martial arts cannot be passed on.
Therefore, the heirs of the gods of the Great Tribulation Temple in all dynasties have a requirement. The bloodline talent must be very high, and the martial arts must be extremely strong.
Generally speaking, the successor of each generation of the gods of the Great Tribulation Temple will be designated when they are in their teens, and then the entire Great Tribulation Temple will do everything to train him. It will take him a few decades to train him to the strongest martial arts, and then about When he was 50 or 60 years old, he entered the ghost town to accept the inheritance of the soul and became a new generation of the god of calamity.
By that time, the intelligence and spirit can be seamlessly connected, and the martial arts are also at their peak, and there will be no weak masters.
Gang Yao, the previous god of the Great Tribulation Temple, spent decades finding the perfect heir, accepted it as a disciple, and tried his best to cultivate him.
And the name of the heir to the God Lord of the Great Tribulation Temple was taken as Gang Yi. From this name, it can be seen that the Dajie Temple has high expectations for him, and it is impossible to add more.
Gangyi, this is the meaning of letting him lead the Great Tribulation Temple to the top.
And this Gang Yi was indeed the one with the highest bloodline talent among the heirs of the Great Tribulation Temple in all dynasties.
The entire Dajie Temple knows the name of Okaichi, but very few people have actually seen him. Because each generation of the Great Calamity Divine Master is a spiritual and soul inheritance, it is guaranteed that there is enough wisdom and there will be no lack of prestige.
Therefore, this heir has been kept in a state of absolute secrecy for a long time, and he has completely accepted the training of the previous generation of the Great Calamity Divine Master to become his only direct disciple. Even in order to protect this person, the Great Calamity Divine Master will arrange many substitutes.
But it's a pity, this Gang Yi, who entrusted the greatest hope of the Great Tribulation Temple, did not complete his hegemony. Before he inherited the spiritual soul of the Lord of the Great Tribulation, the Great Tribulation Temple had already suffered a disaster and was destroyed by His Majesty Jiang Li. .
In the battle of the Great Calamity Palace, not only did the lord of the Great Calamity die, but also the heir Okaichi. After the rest of the cats and dogs left the Western Regions, the Temple of Great Calamity was completely devastated.
This supreme genius, Okaichi, has fallen before he can amaze the world, which is embarrassing to some extent.
…………………………
When Shen Lang woke up again, he was already in a strange space.
Is this a ghost town? Completely different from what I imagined.
According to Shen Lang's imagination, the ghost town should be like a Senluo hell, exuding a faint green light, like an upgraded version of the dark city.
Either there are countless ghosts in it, or there are countless corpses in it, or a special space full of mystery and eerie.
In short, ghost towns should completely subvert the imagination, because it is the ultimate horror.
As a result, the ghost town was completely dark. I couldn't see or feel anything. There was really no light at all, no cold or heat, and even Shen Lang couldn't feel his body at all.
He tried so hard to raise his head, stretch out his hands, and raise his feet, but he couldn't do it at all, as if his body had completely disappeared, and his perception of the outside world didn't even exist.
This feeling is as if completely dead, surrounded by endless nothingness, not to mention eerie, only eternal loneliness and darkness.
The only thing he could do was think.
"Hey, is there anyone?" Shen Lang shouted, but he was only shouting in his mind, he couldn't shout at all, it wasn't that he couldn't open his mouth, even he felt that he had no mouth.
"Lord of the Great Calamity, don't you want to inherit the soul? I'm here, I'm here..."
"You are coming, you are coming..."
Shen Lang's thinking desperately roared silently, but there was still no response, and everything around was nothingness.
Time seems to be completely frozen, but it seems to be constantly passing.
How long has passed, Shen Lang has no idea at all.
But as far as he felt, time passed day after day, day after day.
The surrounding is still completely dark, completely empty, nothing can be seen, nothing can be felt.
Omg? What the hell is going on here?
Could it be that there is no spiritual soul in this ghost town? Could it be that this ghost town was completely empty after Gangyao, the god of calamity of the previous generation, died?
Could it be that His Majesty Jiang Li not only killed Gang Yao's body, but also completely wiped out the spiritual soul of the Divine Master of the Great Calamity?
"Come here, no matter what, it's good to appear."
"No matter what kind of monster it is, come out."
Shen Lang roared in thought, this boundless loneliness is too terrifying, even if there is a Specter.
It really felt like a single brain was exiled into the depths of the universe, floating in an endless void, millions of light-years away from the nearest planet, and even the stars could not be seen.
At this time, not only can I not feel my body, but I can't even sleep and faint. I am always awake and lonely.
It's such a crushing feeling that even death is a luxury.
In this way, time continues to pass.
Shen Lang's spirit and soul are awake all the time, he has no perception of his body, and the surrounding is completely eternal darkness and nothingness.
Days, months, or even longer?
In this state, even time becomes meaningless.
Maybe this is the ghost town, this is the real ghost town, those so-called Senluo hells are completely imagined by living people.
Time continues to pass.
Shen Lang felt that his thinking seemed to be completely frozen, and even felt that several years, decades had passed.
At the beginning, I also hoped for the appearance of the spiritual soul of the god of the catastrophe.
Later, I hope that even if anything appears, it will be fine, even if it is a ghost?
Later, even if it is a light, a sound, even if it is fleeting.
In the end, he gave up all hope, and the whole thought seemed to fall into eternal stillness, as if only in this way could stop the pain.
…………………………
I don't know how long it has been!
Suddenly, a fire light lit up in the endless dark void, an extremely weak fire light.
In an instant, Shen Lang's deadly and frozen spirit was instantly revived, and the whole person was completely awake.
Then, a face appeared.
This is a monk with the kindest face, the gentlest eyes, the purest breath, like air, like sunshine.
But in fact, he couldn't see his facial features at all, but he could feel that he was the most approachable person in the world.
This monk has no age or gender. When he appeared, his head covered the flames behind him, and he looked as if he had a dark ring on his head.
This picture is very familiar. It is the totem of the Great Tribulation Temple. There are countless reliefs with this picture. The Great Tribulation Ming King has a dark sun on his head.
"Are you ready? Your Excellency Shen Lang!" the monk asked.
Shen Lang said: "Are you the King of the Great Tribulation?"
The monk said: "King Ming of the Great Tribulation? Is this the name that the world gave me? It sounds very nice."
Shen Lang said: "Do you know who I am?"
The monk said: "After entering the ghost town, you are completely transparent to me and have no secrets. Jiang Li's son, Shen Lang, has a strange soul in his body. He does not belong to this world. ."
Shen Lang couldn't help but stunned, the other party really knew everything.
The monk said, "In fact, I know more than you. Do you know the deepest longing in your heart?"
Shen Lang said: "There is no hatred in the world, and then travel around the world with his wife Mulan."
"No, it's not." The monk said: "The deepest desire in your heart is to return to your own world, to be normal and get yourself."
Uh? Really?
Shen Lang was stunned, returned to his own world and be his normal self? What does it mean, to go back to Earth and restore your looks and continue to be a good doctor?
Do you really think so? But Shen Lang felt that he didn't miss the earth at all. His lover and relatives were all in this world.
But people in this world often don't know what they really want.
For example, many people think that what they want most is wealth, prosperity, or, more directly, to become a billionaire. But once you reach this goal, you find that you are not as happy as you thought.
The monk said: "To be precise, you want to complete all your goals in this world, and wait until all your relatives have passed away safely, and then return to your own world. You are very greedy. People only have a lifetime, but you want to two lifetimes."
Shen Lang said: "Aren't you more greedy? What you want is eternal life."
"No, you are wrong." The monk said: "Lord Shen Lang, you must think that the soul of the Lord of the Great Calamity has been passed down for a thousand years, and it has to be passed down from generation to generation. So the so-called inheritance is a kind of looting. "
Shen Lang said: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not, it's so boring." The monk said: "In that case, each generation of the Great Tribulation God just changed the body, but the soul is still the same. Isn't it the same for every generation of the Great Tribulation God, so what's the future?"
Shen Lang said: "It's not a house grab, what is it?"
"Inheritance." The monk said: "It is a kind of inheritance of wisdom, inheritance of memory, but it does not include will and soul. Therefore, each new generation of the gods of the great calamity is still the new gods of the great calamity, but there is much more in their minds. Strong mental power, wisdom, memory, etc. But characters, wills, emotions, emotions, etc. are all different, so there are infinite coincidences, isn't it?"
This is quite reasonable.
The monk said: "Lord Shen Lang, are you ready? Are you ready to accept my spiritual inheritance?"
Shen Lang said: "My father is Jiang Li, and he personally destroyed the Great Tribulation Temple."
The monk smiled and said: "Do you think I will have hatred? And every hundred years, the gate of the ghost town will open. You are the only candidate, there is no choice. This is destined by God, and it is also fate."
Shen Lang said: "After accepting the inheritance, am I the new Lord of the Great Tribulation?"
The monk said: "Whatever you want, it is what you think it is, and it is not if you think it is not."
Shen Lang said: "There is no obligation to revitalize the Great Tribulation Temple?"
The monk said: "If the inheritance of this kind of spiritual soul still needs a forced will? That is not inheritance, but a home grab."
Shen Lang said: "I still have a question that I don't understand?"
The monk said, "You say it."
Shen Lang said: "Is this the last time the gate of the ghost town is opened?"
The monk said, "Why do you say that?"
Shen Lang said: "Because every time the Fire Dragon Comet hits this world, a total solar eclipse will occur one year later, the gate of the ghost town will also be opened, and your calamity will be replaced by a new generation. However, after the Fire Dragon Comet hit this time, it has completely died, and will never be seen again. There will be a next time."
The monk was silent for a long time, and then said for a long time, "Is this moment finally here? Is the Fire Dragon Comet really dead?"
Shen Lang said: "Yes."
The monk said: "The gate of the ghost town is indeed opened for the last time, and you are indeed the last inheritor of the Lord of the Catastrophe."
Shen Lang said: "What does this mean?"
The monk said: "This means that the moment of catastrophe is really coming."
Shen Lang said: "What is the moment of catastrophe?"
The monk said, "Maybe it's the Great Destruction."
Shen Lang said: "Like the great annihilation of ancient civilization?"
The monk said, "Maybe, maybe not."
Shen Lang said: "Impossible. The civilization of this world is still in its infancy. It is far from reaching the point of annihilation. You have overestimated the human civilization in this world."
The monk said: "I said, maybe it is, maybe it is not. No matter which world's history, it is repeated, tortuous, and turbulent."
Shen Lang said: "So what is the purpose of inheriting the spirit and soul of the Great Tribulation God Lord for thousands of years? There is always a goal."
The monk said: "In order to prevent the true arrival of the moment of catastrophe."
Shen Lang said: "But your Dajie Temple's behavior is very evil."
The monk said: "Perhaps I feel despair coming, so I have to take a shortcut."
Shen Lang said: "Are you trying to say that as long as the goal is righteous, the process doesn't matter?"
The monk said: "The purpose is the purpose, and there is no justice or evil in him. What is justice and what is evil?"
Shen Lang said: "This should be considered a sophistry. According to what you said, the spiritual soul of the Lord of the Great Calamity has been passed down for thousands of years to prevent the true arrival of the moment of the great calamity. Then your Great Calamity Temple is just, just to achieve a certain goal. It’s nothing more than a means. Then my father Jiang Li’s destruction of the Great Tribulation Temple has become unjust?”
The monk was silent for a moment and said: "Perhaps there is no more righteous person in the world than His Majesty Jiang Li. I have no intention of convincing you. I have said it before, and it will never affect your will and judgment. Everything will wait until you accept it. After the mental memory is completed, judge for yourself."
Shen Lang said: "Isn't it taking the house?"
The monk said, "It's not about taking the house, it's about inheritance."
Shen Lang said: "I won't become a walking corpse, won't I lose control of my body?"
The monk said, "No."
And to be honest, Shen Lang is in the boundless emptiness and loneliness, and he can only leave here after accepting the inheritance, he has no choice at all.
But the monk did not say so, because time is almost infinite in it, eternity is instant, instant is eternity.
If there is only one choice in eternity, no matter how bad the choice is, anyone will make this choice, because there is no other choice.
The monk said: "Your Excellency Shen Lang, do you want to wait, or accept the inheritance now?"
Shen Lang said: "What do you mean by waiting?"
The monk said: "I said that I will not interfere with any of your will, so wait until you fully agree to accept it, and then inject spiritual memory into your brain to complete the inheritance."
Shen Lang said: "After the inheritance, not only will I not be taken away, but also have a lot of memory and wisdom, and my spiritual power has increased countless times?"
"Eh?" The monk said, "Is your goal actually to increase your spiritual power? Is this a bit of a repayment of pearls? Did you come to the ghost town to enhance your spiritual power and destroy the master of Yingguang and Buddha Mountain?"
Shen Lang said: "You even know this?"
The monk said: "As I said, you are completely transparent to me in the ghost town, and there are no secrets at all."
Shen Lang said: "I came to enhance my spiritual power, to destroy Yingguang and Buddha Mountain? Can't I?"
The monk said: "Yes, as I said, inheritance is a kind of fate, destined by God. I will not interfere with any of your will, just like a real gift, without any obligation to perform, this is the real inheritance, no contain any impurities."
Shen Lang said: "If I don't agree with your inheritance, will you disappear?"
The monk said: "No, of course I can disappear, and I can show up to talk to you."
Shen Lang said, "Are you 100% obedient to me?"
The monk said: "Yes, because this is a fate destined by God, I have no choice, there is no second person for me to pass on."
Yes, King Ming of the Great Tribulation has no second choice, and neither does Shen Lang.
It seemed he could choose to agree, or not.
But if time goes on forever, and he is forever in nothingness and darkness, and never perceives the existence of his body, can he still choose to disagree?
Shen Lang said: "Will the inheritance process be painful?"
"Uh." The monk said, "No, but because the injected spiritual memory is very large, the brain may fall into a short-term blank, but there will be no pain, because there is no such feeling of pain in the ghost town."
Shen Lang said: "Well, I agree to accept your spiritual memory inheritance."
The monk said: "Your Excellency Shen Lang, are you sure you are ready?"
Shen Lang said: "Yes, I'm sure I'm ready."
The monk said, "Then I'll start."
Shen Lang said: "Will the whole time last for a long time?"
The monk said: "Actually, there is no concept of time, because in the process of inheritance, your mind will fall into a blank space. It can be considered as a long time, or it can be considered as a moment."
Shen Lang said: "Okay, come on."
The monk's face gradually faded into a mass of light and shadow, and then slowly flew towards Shen Lang.
As if to take care of Shen Lang's emotions, this light and shadow flew over very slowly, and he was getting closer and closer to Shen Lang.
The faces are still blurred, but getting closer and closer, the feeling seems to be exactly the same as himself.
By the way, it is me, so there will be no exclusion.
This light and shadow flew in front of Shen Lang. This inheritance is more like an overlap. The spiritual light and shadow of this monk will be injected into Shen Lang's brain. What should the whole process be?
USB into data? Or reinstall the system?
The light and shadow of the monk penetrated into Shen Lang's mind little by little.
The legacy begins little by little.
Shen Lang felt that his brain slowly entered a blank state, and soon he would not know anything.
Then, he felt that the monk's light and shadow were a little nervous, a little excited, and a little excited.
Are you not happy without sorrow? Aren't you completely pure detachment? Why are you still excited?
All of Shen Lang's will was instantly condensed.
"boom!"
The whole inheritance is over.
The monk's spiritual light and shadow seemed to have hit the firewall, and was thrown straight away.
Then the light and shadow of his face were strongly distorted, as if it were about to shatter, and it took a while for it to fully return to its original state.
"You're still not ready." The monk said, "Don't worry, don't worry."
"Hahaha..." Shen Lang said: "Stop acting, you are not the King of the Great Tribulation, nor the spiritual soul of the Lord of the Great Tribulation, and what you want to carry out is not the inheritance of the spiritual soul, but to seize the house, you Just to take me away."
The monk said: "Okay, okay, calm down for a while, I left temporarily, and I will show up when you are completely ready."
Then, the light and shadow of his face dimmed directly.
Shen Lang said: "Don't act anymore, I already know who you are, what should I call you? The next generation of the god of calamity, Your Excellency Gang Yi?"
The light and shadow of the other party's face trembled slightly.
Shen Lang said: "Of course, maybe you have another identity, the Jikong Abbot of Hanging Temple?"
As soon as these words came out, the light and shadow of the other party's face did not tremble slightly, but trembled violently.
Since Jiang Li's sudden death, if anyone's identity is the most mysterious in this world, the Jikong Abbot of Hanging Temple definitely ranks among the top.
For a long time, the Dajie Temple suppressed the Xuankong Temple and the Tongtian Temple so much that they could not lift their heads. After Jiang Li destroyed the Great Tribulation Temple, the two families re-emerged.
Tongtian Temple inherited many evil exercises of Dajie Temple and embarked on the road of evil rise.
But the Hanging Temple is taking a completely different path, and they seem especially detached. Even in the eyes of many people, the Hanging Temple is focused on the study of scriptures, philosophy, and civilization, and is not interested in martial arts at all.
When the giant ancient ruins in the southern sea area appeared, several detached forces took action to snatch it, with the exception of two forces.
Bai Yujing, it's too awesome to look down on this ancient relic,
Another is the Hanging Temple, which only symbolically sent a boat. After Shen Lang helped Futu Mountain to unlock the entrance to the ancient ruins in the southern sea area, both Zhutian Pavilion and Tianyahai Pavilion tried to intercept Shen Lang. It was the silence elders of Xuankong Temple who helped, not only stopped the maliciousness of Zhutian Pavilion, but also Escort Shen Lang home.
After Shen Lang's life was revealed, the Great Yan Empire ordered half the world's army and six major forces to come to round up Shen Lang.
Bai Yujing was arrogant and only sent a snow boat, not a single person appeared.
And the Hanging Temple only sent one boat, and the same half-person figure did not appear.
Through Ning Shao, Tongtian Temple tried to infiltrate the Yue Kingdom, occupy the secular world forces, and desperately expand.
In the next few battles, Tianyahai Pavilion, Buddha Mountain, Zhutian Pavilion, and Tongtian Temple all dispatched secret legions, but Baiyujing and Xuankong Temple did not respond.
Bai Yujing is really awesome, and where there is snow is its sphere of influence.
However, the Hanging Temple does not have any base or any sphere of influence. It guards an ancient temple of its own and has no intention of expanding.
But what is very strange is that no force in the world dares to look down on the Hanging Temple, nor dare to oppress the Hanging Temple.
Shen Lang is very strange, Xuankong Temple looks very weak, not arrogant at all, but why is the whole world in awe of him?
The only information he got was that there was a super awesome, super mysterious abbot in the Hanging Temple.
With this person here, others would not dare to provoke the Hanging Temple. It is also officially because of the abbot of Jikong that Hangkong Temple has always remained detached.
And this Jikong Abbot has never really appeared. Everyone knows that he is very awesome, but he seems to appear suddenly. Even he became the abbot of Tongtian Temple very suddenly. Before that, it seemed that no one was hanging in the air. Temple saw him.
After several major events, including the duel between Shen Lang and Ying Wuming, Zuo Ci of Tianya Haige and Sect Master Ren of Buddha Mountain all appeared, the abbot of Hanging Temple still did not appear.
Now Shen Lang actually said that he was the last heir of the Great Tribulation Temple, the peerless genius Gang Yi.
If this were true, it would be so bizarre.
The Dajie Temple was so powerful that it overwhelmed Tongtian Temple and Hanging Temple, and almost disappeared. After His Majesty Shen Lang destroyed the Dajie Temple, these two forces rose up, and the family got the evil of the Dajie Temple. Cultivation method, and the other is more direct, and more simply is to regard the heir of Dajie Temple as his abbot.
This is a secret to Shen Lang, but it is not a secret to the master of Zuo Ci, the master of Buddha Mountain, and the Great Yan Empire.
Even if this person is the abbot of Xuankong Temple, it should be the default of the Great Yan Empire. This world is really ridiculous.
Shen Lang said: "Master Gang Yi, Abbot Jikong of Hanging Temple, do you think I guessed it right?"
The lights in front came on, the monk's face finally became clear, and Shen Lang was amazed.
Damn, is this the most beautiful man in the world?
This is true androgyny, and there is absolutely no way to distinguish between males and females.
And you should be in your 50s or 60s, you don't look more than 30 years old, is that appropriate?
This face can not only make men crazy, but also make women crazy, just looking at it is like the moonlight, and like the spring breeze, it is very close.
It's so demonic, it's simply fascinated by Dafa.
Moreover, Shen Lang found that his face was really very similar to the King of Tribulation on the relief.
The Great Tribulation Temple may have really exhausted all its resources and cultivated him with all its strength, or it may have really turned him into the real King of the Great Tribulation.
"Your Excellency Shen Lang, you are really smart." Gang Yi said slowly.
Shen Lang said: "When my father breached the Great Calamity Palace, even Gang Yao, the Lord of the Great Calamity, died, so you didn't die?"
Gang Yi: "Aren't you also dead?"
This sentence made everything clear. For Shen Lang's life, countless people died.
And for Okaichi to live, countless people also died. He has always been the most mysterious person, and when the Great Tribulation Palace was destroyed, he was already very, very powerful.
Shen Lang said: "Then how did you become the abbot of Hanging Temple?"
Okaichi: "Because I'm Okaichi."
These words are awesome. If he wants to become the master of the Hanging Temple, he must not only conquer all the people in the Hanging Temple, but also the emperor of the Great Yan Empire. What kind of charm, what kind of wisdom, what kind of ability does this require?
Shen Lang said: "After the sudden death of His Majesty Jiang Li, no one can suppress you, right? You just wanted to take me away, right? When the total solar eclipse came, the gate of the ghost town opened, I guessed, and you You knew it for a long time, so you were ready to come in, right? Your martial arts are too strong, so my deployment can't find your existence at all, even if you enter the gate of the ghost town with me, they all watch not."
"Yes, I want to take you away." Gang said.
Shen Lang said: "Once I am taken away, I will become a walking corpse, and my soul will be lost forever. But why did you take me away? Is it because of my identity? Or maybe you took a fancy to me? of what?"
Gang Yi: "You understand me too superficially."
Shen Lang said: "I understand, you have to take me away. Your only purpose in entering the ghost town is to accept the inheritance of the thousand-year-old soul of the god of the catastrophe, but you found out... you can't pass it on at all. Because I was chosen by the god of the catastrophe. The inheritor of the calamity, so you have to find a way to take me away, and then use me to accept the inheritance of the soul of the god of the catastrophe, right?"
Gang Yidao: "Your Majesty Shen Lang, you are really smart."
Shen Lang said: "Actually, I am also shocked. You are obviously the heir of the god master who has devoted all his efforts to cultivate the great calamity. Why did the thousand-year-old soul of the great calamity King choose me? It's so bizarre, am I the real catastrophe? King Ming? This...this is too incredible!"
And right now!
Another light and shadow lit up and slowly flew over.
This... This is like a jellyfish light and shadow, as light as nothing.
But upon closer inspection, it is the shape of a human brain, with countless rays of light flashing inside, as if it contains hundreds of millions of stars.
It... is the true thousand-year-old spiritual soul of King Ming of the Great Tribulation.
It slowly flew towards Shen Lang, and the true spiritual inheritance was about to begin.
