    Although their positions were different, everyone somewhat agreed with Nuwa's words. Even Yuanshi Tianzun, who was already ready to get angry, softened a lot after hearing what Nuwa said. He looked thoughtful.  Come.

    After Nuwa looked around the saints, she continued to smile and said: "But then I thought that over the years, our strength has not declined. On the contrary, each of us has improved, but our status and interests are actually the same.  "Those who have descended, the sentient beings in the world are no longer as awed by us as they were in the prehistoric times. It seems that our majesty, status and interests are not related to our strength."

    Hearing this, all the saints immediately frowned, but Taoist Zhunti said: "Our majesty, status and interests are not as good as before. Is it because of the prohibition of Taozu that we have not been able to walk between heaven and earth all year round?"

    As soon as she finished speaking, Nuwa shook her head and said: "Think about how we rarely took action in person in the ancient times. After the Lich War and until the Conferred Gods War, the number of times we walked in the ancient times combined.  All are few and far between.

    ????????????????????????????? The Taoist Patriarch doesn¡¯t prohibit me and his disciples from walking around in our palace, and he doesn¡¯t prohibit us from giving disciples.  "

    "Then tell me, what is the reason for the decline of the status of saints like us?" Zhunti couldn't help but ask.

    After hearing Zhunti's question, Nuwa did not answer immediately. She just looked around at the saints. Seeing that they all looked forward to her speaking, she couldn't help but feel happy, so she continued with a smile.  : "I still want to say that Teacher Hongjun, he has always been the most feared person by all living beings in the world. Even we have always been in awe of him, but before and after we became saints, there is still a difference in the awe of him by all living beings.

    I want to give a sermon in Zixiao Palace for the first time. How many of us, including the Demon Clan Emperor, Taiyi, Xi, Kunpeng, the Twelve Ancestral Witches of the Wu Clan, and other top figures from the Three Realms can go to any place in Zixiao Palace.  go?  After arriving at Zixiao Palace, who is not there to listen attentively?

    At that time, Teacher Hongjun was both heaven and earth.  He is the God in everyone's mind. What he says must be right. Whatever he says is what he says. No one dares to refute. They just secretly remember what he said and go back to understand. His status is respected and everyone respects him.  That level of status and prestige was something he couldn't match even after he joined the Tao.

    But later, after several saints appeared in the world, and after several sermons in the back of Zixiao Palace, fewer and fewer people listened. Emperor Jun, Donghuang Taiyi and other demon masters, Zhu Jiuyin and other ancestral witches stopped talking.  , even the lamp-burning people no longer go to listen to the sermon.  Moreover, in the next few sermons that Teacher Hongjun gave, he would often be interrupted, some would argue with him, and there would be various doubts, but his prestige was much less than before.

    At that time, Teacher Hongjun¡¯s strength had not declined.  This situation occurs not because there are a few more saints in the world.

    There are too many saints.  Zixiao Palace is no longer the only one, they are all the opinions of saints. Once there are differences, everyone will argue with each other. They will no longer directly agree with Teacher Hongjun¡¯s views as in the past. It must be right. If there are doubts, he  The prestige will naturally be affected.

    As for those who cultivate themselves under the saints, because there are saints preaching everywhere, Zixiao Palace is no longer the only place to teach the saints' way. Naturally, the teachings taught in Zixiao Palace do not seem to be as rare as before. Some people  I even got tired of listening to Master Hongjun's sermons and didn't want to listen anymore. I wanted to listen to the opinions of other saints. Naturally, fewer people went to Zixiao Palace to listen to the sermons, and their awe for Zixiao Palace naturally decreased.

    Moreover, so many saints appeared all of a sudden. Many people thought that saints were just that, and they would definitely join that ranks soon. Some even directly regarded themselves as people in that ranks, and saints became  No longer as high-minded as before, awe will naturally decrease.

    Therefore, at that time, although all living beings still fear him, they no longer fear him as before. Teacher Hongjun's strength has not declined, just because there are a few more saints, but his status has declined. This situation will follow me  How similar is the situation now?

    In my opinion, the main reason for the decline in our status is that there are more and more saints in the world. Saints do not seem so rare, so they are naturally looked down upon by others, and their status has also dropped a lot.  "

    "Isn't it the principle that things are rare and valuable? Well, it's the principle that saints are rare and valuable. After talking so much, it seems that the meeting of this saint is like a meeting of a certain party official, with a lot of nonsense."  Ma Fan thought secretly in his heart.

    The faces of the saints also changed greatly when Nuwa said it. Yuanshi Tianzun even asked: "Nuwa, do you know that your words will have life consequences? I hope that one day, when you are in danger,  Do you regret what you said today?"

    Nuwa smiled and said: "Of course I won't regret it, but why are you so nervous?"?Is it because you have no confidence in your own strength and are afraid that it will be your turn next?  "

    Leader Tongtian smiled and said: "Hahaha, you are right, Yuanshi, now we have to eliminate the weak saints, are you afraid?"

    Yuanshi Tianzun said angrily: "I will be afraid. If you and I have done something, I will kill you first to save the peace."

    "Come here and see who killed whom." The leader of Tongtian Cult said not to be outdone.

    Taishang Laojun suddenly said: "Okay, don't argue anymore. You two have been arguing for so many years. Maybe you haven't argued enough, and people are laughing at you."

    When Taishang Laojun opened his mouth, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Cult Master naturally wanted to give him some face, so they each snorted coldly, and then stopped talking.

    At this moment, Taoist Zhunti suddenly said: "Hahaha, after listening to what Junior Sister Nuwa said, you must have no objection to the increase in the number of saints, which leads to the decline in the prestige and status of saints."

    Everyone was silent, acquiescing to this, and at the same time looking at Zhunti, wanting to see what he was going to say.

    "Since this is the case, there should be no objection to controlling the number of saints, right?" Zhunti smiled and said: "However, I think controlling the number of saints must be carried out in two aspects.

    It is not the most urgent thing to eliminate these current saints and improve the prestige and status of the saints. On the contrary, it is to stop the way of the Lord becoming a saint. To prevent new saints from appearing, the most important thing is to stabilize the prestige and status of the saints.

    Therefore, I propose that next we should kill those who are expected to become saints in the world and punish them severely. What do you think?  "

    Everyone knows that Buddhism is the most promising to produce new saints, and there is more than one person, but Ran Deng, Ku Lu Sun, Guanyin, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, Sunlight, Moonlight, Vairocana, Maitreya Buddha, Jin Chanzi,  Ksitigarbha, Dingguang, Tathagata, Great Sun Tathagata and other masters who had great hope of becoming saints have fallen one after another. Now Buddhism has left no masters who have the potential to become saints. Under the huge contrast, Zhunti's psychology has become distorted.  , he wished that the other sects would be like Buddhism, and all the masters who were expected to become saints would die, so he made such a proposal.

    However, the human sects Xuandu, Zhuangzhou, Chan sect Huanglong, Taiyi, Chijing and others, and Jie sect Wuliang and Wudang are all people who are very likely to become saints. However, the three sages of the human race have Zhuanxu and Nuwa, although they are dead.  There is a Jiutian Xuannv, but there are also two or three maids like Caiyun who have the appearance of sainthood. If they agree with Zhun's proposal, they will be targeted at these people. Naturally, no one will agree with Zhun's proposal.

    So as soon as Zhunti finished speaking, Nuwa suddenly said: "Everything in the world has its own reincarnation, and life and death. We are afraid that there are too many saints, so we kill those who are expected to become saints, but it is not in line with the Dao. After all, it is  Can't succeed.

    Even if we kill those who are famous and have the potential to become saints, we may not be sure that some monks with little reputation will suddenly become saints that day.

    Moreover, none of these people who are expected to become saints are simple people. Each of them is only one step away from being a saint. This step may be pressure. Under the pressure of us, maybe they will break through one after another.  Don't have the opposite effect when the time comes. Instead of controlling the number of saints, you can acquire a few saints at once.  "

    Taishang Laojun also said: "Yes, during the reign of Emperor Shun, there was a flood in the wilderness. Shun first appointed Gun to control the flood. Gun brought people everywhere to block the flow of water, but it had the opposite effect and made the flood more serious.  Later, Shun appointed Gun's son Dayu to control the floods. Dayu did not follow his father's methods, but adopted dredging methods, and finally the floods were controlled.

    Nothing in the world is worse than flowing water. The situation we are facing now is like controlling water, but it is better to block it than to dredge it. Junior Brother Zhunti¡¯s plan is to block it, and it will not work. We should still think of other ways to dredge it. It's the best policy.  "

    Nuwa and Taishang Laojun opened their mouths one after another. Zhunti also found that his attack was a bit wide, and he was really asking for trouble, so he had to keep his mouth shut.

    Yuanshi Tianzun is now an ally with Zhunti. Zhunti has lost face and he doesn't like it, so he said: "Brother mentioned the events in the prehistoric times, but it reminded me of the old events in the prehistoric times when we first became saints.

    When we first became saints, Emperor Jun, Donghuang Taiyi, Zhu Jiuyin, etc. had some ability and offended the majesty of our saints many times. We tolerated them and even acquiesced to Donghuang Taiyi and Zhu Jiuyin.  Yin is juxtaposed with us.

    Unexpectedly, our tolerance has greatly damaged the saint's prestige and status, and even Taoist Hongjun was looked down upon. For a time, wars continued in the three realms. There were many people who challenged the saint in the three realms, and even Taoist Hongjun could not suppress them.  , the prestige of the saint is indifferent.

    Later, it was me and other saints who took action together to resolve the crisis, and brought Emperor Jun, Donghuang Taiyi and?Jiuyin and others who dared to provoke us and other saints were killed, and the order of heaven and earth was re-established. Only then did we save the face and status of saints like us, and only then did we have a way to survive for all living beings in the three realms, and only then could we have a peaceful and prosperous age in the future.  "
