Chao Ge Chapter 6: The Beginning of the Conferment of Gods
"That must be won!"
On Jin'ao Island, inside Biyou Palace.
Hundreds of Immortals were sitting around Li Ping'an, listening to Li Ping'an introducing the rules of the Battle of the Gods, and looking at the 120 incarnations of Heaven's Dao arranged neatly not far away, everyone had different opinions for a while.
They really didn't expect it.
Now not only do you no longer have to die, but you also have the opportunity to compete with the Immortal of Chanjiao.
It’s now time to become famous!
Taoist Duobao frowned and asked, "Does Chanjiao agree?"
"otherwise?"
Li Ping'an said warmly: "I just came from Yuxu Palace, and they have already given a definite answer. Later, up to one hundred and twenty immortals will be selected to join the Great Tribulation of the Gods, and we will decide who is the best from the land of Nanzhou."
up and down."
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit said: "Why don't we fight with real swords and guns? I see a lot of dissatisfaction over there."
"Eh!"
Zhao Gongming quickly grabbed the Golden Spirit Mother and said seriously:
"This is just Jin Ling's impulsive words. Please don't blame me, Taoist Master."
"Uncle Gongming, you're welcome," Li Ping'an said, "If you have any questions, you can ask them directly."
"Your Majesty, when will the Nanzhou dynasty change?"
"I don't know the details of this. Heaven has stopped planning this matter. Everything depends on its own evolution."
"If it all depends on evolution, then which side do we support?"
"It depends on how you choose."
Li Pingan smiled and said:
"There are two camps here, one is the princes and the other is the Shang Kingdom.
"Before talking about the Shang Kingdom, let me first tell you how the Xia Kingdom was replaced by the Shang Kingdom?"
All the immortals from the Jie Sect cheered up together.
They don't want to lose.
If you lose, you will not only have to send more masters to heaven to become heavenly slaves, but also when you meet those immortals in heaven in the future, how will they raise their heads?
Just kidding, Immortal Jiejiao would rather have his head broken and shed blood than live with his tail between his legs!
Gui Lingling took out a small notebook: "Quickly tell me and I will remember it!"
Many Jiejiaoxian imitated this.
Li Ping'an laughed dumbly and said slowly:
"There are records in the Heavenly Dao here that the Great Xia Kingdom under the Juetian Formation was originally the inheritor of the position of Human Emperor.
"But at the end of summer, a tyrant appeared, with a cruel temperament and a fondness for killing people and offering sacrifices.
"At this time, the land of Nanzhou is actually quite peaceful. The area that Xia State can rule is not too big. When Xia State and his vassal states unite, their influence can occupy two-thirds of the land area. Each vassal state has
The exotic beasts they have domesticated are the main reason why they can maintain such a large territory.
"When the Xia Kingdom was overthrown, there were actually three internal reasons.
"First, the conflicts between the princes and the Xia Kingdom are getting bigger and bigger. The feudal system used by the Xia Kingdom is still relatively primitive. In order to suppress the development of the princes, conflicts are inevitable.
"Secondly, the core forging technology mastered by the Xia Kingdom was gradually learned by the princes.
"The third thing is the tyranny of the last Xia king, which made the princes, ministers, scholar-bureaucrats and even slaves extremely afraid.
"If things go on like this, the king of Xia will lose his virtue.
"There are also a series of changes here, such as the Xia nobles drank excessively, and a large amount of grain was used to make wine to keep them drunk, and the Qiang people from the northwest attacked and looted the Xia capital, greatly damaging the Xia people's strength.
"At this time, in the eastern part of the Xia Kingdom, a place with luxuriant water and grass and a developed water system, a tribe quickly emerged.
"That is the current ruler of Nanzhou, the merchant."
All the immortals from Jiejiao were silent in thought.
They really don't understand.
Is there anything here, any internal connection?
Li Pingan continued:
"The exotic beast domesticated by the merchant tribe is a kind of buffalo. This kind of buffalo has amazing endurance and can transport heavy goods on land and water. In the process of supplying goods, the merchants maintained close contact with the major tribes in the east.
These tribes created the illusion that they were very powerful. Then, Xia State was in internal turmoil. Shang State heard the news and united about a dozen tribes to march towards the capital of Xia State.
"In fact, there was not much fierce fighting, and the defenders on Xia's side were defeated one after another.
"As they arrived at the capital of the Xia Kingdom, the allied forces of the eastern tribal princes rushed in and looted the city, taking away a large amount of wealth in the core area of the Xia Kingdom, the handicraft producers, the most critical blacksmiths, and even a large number of sacrifices.
Inherited from the past.
"The merchants are the masters of the coalition, and more than a dozen princes of this coalition have made an alliance together.
"Later, as the merchants gradually conquered the outside world and established their own rule, more than a dozen princes united into one, and this was the prototype of the merchants.
"The merchant Dai Xia was not the abdication of the Five Emperors in ancient times, nor was he the bloodline of Dayu. Most of the princes in various places were dissatisfied.
"In order to consolidate their own rule, deal with excess prisoners of war, and intimidate tribes, princes, and merchants from all over the world, they developed a bloody ritual."
Gui Lingling's face suddenly showed: "Human sacrifice!"
"In the beginning, humans were sacrificed. Merchants originally liked to use dogs to sacrifice themselves," Li Ping'an sighed. "At this time, it became human sacrifices to use prisoners of war and slaves. Later, when building new houses and new palaces, they also had to kill several slaves.
It laid the foundation, and then gradually evolved into using living people instead of animals to sacrifice to heaven and earth."
The immortals of Jiejiao didn't have much emotion.
Most of them are non-human.
When Li Ping'an talked about this in Yuxu Palace, many immortals and gods who were born in the human race were quite angry.
Daozhu Li continued:
“During the years when the Shang Kingdom ruled Nanzhou, the practice of human sacrifice gradually became more and more popular, so that merchants from all over the country followed suit.
"However, it must also be noted that many princes, especially those ancient princely states that submitted to Shang, did not follow the cruel habits of merchants.
"Today, a situation similar to that at the end of summer has occurred again...Uncle Spiritual Master, what do you think it is?"
"Ah? Me?"
Gui Lingling's small round face was full of shock.
She had just drawn a touching story in her notebook, "The turtle mother took the turtle eldest, second, third, and fourth cubs to find the turtle father." She was really a little confused at the moment.
Zhao Gongming said: "The conflicts between merchants and princes from various places have become more prominent, and the advantages of Shang State over princes are gradually disappearing. What's more, merchants use human sacrifices to consolidate their rule."
"Yes," Li Ping'an gave a thumbs up, "So, in fact, there is no need for Heaven to arrange anything. The drama in Nanzhou will happen by itself. The merchants are too cruel and the princes are already restless. What's more, the overall strength of the princes has exceeded
There are too many merchants with too much strength, so there will definitely be war here."
All the immortals nodded.
Duobao said: "Pindao finally understands that if we support one side, as long as that side can win, then we will win?"
"That's right," Li Ping'an said slowly, "Basically speaking, when the Nanzhou dynasty changes subside, whoever supports the forces wins will probably be the winner. If the forces supported by the two religions lose, then they will be better than each other.
Some points... the final win or loss will provide a large amount of points that are enough to determine the outcome. We are essentially a points system."
"Understood."
"Do you still have any questions? Just ask now. I won't show up again until the catastrophe is over."
The immortals of Jiejiao looked at me and I looked at you. Although there were still many things they didn't understand, they didn't want to take the initiative to ask.
To ask about the way of heaven, it is better to ask about the magic weapon in their hands.
This is the rule of interception.
Li Ping'an nodded when he saw this, and said seriously: "We have now passed the biggest crisis, but it does not mean that the great catastrophe has passed. The final catastrophe is the end of the life of heaven and earth. The four-point plan I made in heaven before
The implementation will be accelerated, and Uncle Gui Ling can come to Heaven for a long stay later, but you should have to help Jie Jiao fight."
"of course!"
Guiling raised her chest and raised her head: "We don't really have to go all out, we just use the incarnation, and the incarnation is given by heaven! What are we afraid of!"
Li Pingan smiled and cupped his hands.
"Then, I'll take my leave now. Please take care of yourself."
Wisps of smoke appeared under his feet, and his figure was about to disappear.
Duobao rolled his eyes and shouted: "There is one more thing! Peace!"
"Hmm? Master said so."
??????55.??????
"That's right. We have recruited a group of disciples in Nanzhou before. Can this group of disciples not use these one hundred and twenty incarnations?"
Duobao blinked, with a look of pure kindness and harmlessness.
The corners of Li Pingan's little Yuanshen mouth twitched slightly.
Good guys, the same question has been asked by both Chan and Jie.
Obviously, in order to increase their chances of winning in this God Conferring Competition, both sides are preparing to send more disciples to exploit loopholes in his rules.
Li Ping'an was vague: "The quantity shouldn't be too much, it's still acceptable."
After saying this, his figure gradually faded away, leaving only a wisp of smoke, and then disappeared.
The immortals from Jiejiao looked at each other.
An immortal whispered: "Does this mean, yes?"
"Are we going to recruit more disciples?"
"It's too late. The new disciples also have to practice. Nanzhou is still suppressed by the Juetian Formation, so the disciples can't show much strength."
"The Chanjiao side must be doing it too. Don't look at them as sanctimonious, they are all insidious and cunning."
"Let's discuss serious matters first," Duobao greeted, "Master said that we should handle this matter ourselves. If he didn't show up, he would have gone fishing with Uncle Taiqing. We can only win this battle.
, can’t lose! There’s no need to die, so why be afraid? Just fight with them! This grudge should be settled!”
"good!"
"Fuck them!"
"Put down Yuxu!"
Duobao frowned and said: "Pull this junior brother who is trying to expand the conflict out to check his soul to see if there is any transcendent person... Oh yes, the transcendent person is gone. Check if his soul has Maitreya or a fierce demon.
, their prohibition.”
A group of masters of cutting skills burst into laughter.
The immortal who chanted the four-letter slogan turned red and hesitated, saying that he had drunk too much.
Taoist Duobao waved his hand, and dozens of core masters of Jiejiao heard his message at the same time.
"There are too many fellow sects here. Don't leave later. Let's hold a small meeting. The nature of this competition has changed. Whoever wins and loses between the two religions will become a legend in the world.
"This is also about the battle of ideas between the master and the second uncle.
"The Chanjiao people follow the law and don't teach it lightly, but what we follow here is to strive for a chance of survival, and all things can be practiced.
"This debate that has lasted since ancient times should come to an end."
All the experts nodded at the same time.
Gui Lingling sent a message and asked: "Senior Brother, do you want me to go to Heaven to inquire about the situation?"
"No need," Duobao said, "this incarnation of heaven will only suppress your strength in proportion. We are generally much stronger than Chanjiao. This is the advantage of Master's concept! In the future, there will be no so-called destiny, no more
The distinction between karma and merit is our biggest advantage. Even if we lose, it doesn't matter as long as we don't lose too badly."
Zhao Gongming smiled and said: "In that case, Pindao will take the lead!"
"Brother, don't be impulsive," Fairy Yunxiao said, "Everything should be considered in the long term. If you can win, you can't lose."
All the immortals nodded in unison.
…
After a brief exchange between the two sects, the matter of canonizing the gods was roughly decided.
Li Pingan turned around and went to Lingshan.
He observed in the dark for a while and found that his father Li Dazhi was holding a burning lamp, Dapeng, Taoist Cihang, and Ksitigarbha drinking together to prepare his Lingshan transformation leadership group, and he couldn't help but smile.
Li Pingan did not show up.
Because he discovered that the current Ran Deng, Ci Hang, and even Dapeng Niao were all slightly afraid of Li Dazhi.
That's right, my father has the potential to become the second best person in the world.
Who will underestimate you now?
Li Ping'an stood in mid-air for a long time, and what flashed through his mind were the various exchanges between him and Teacher Wangri over the past few hundred years.
Because his father is here, he can't call him father in his heart.
In a practical sense, these are two pairs of father and son, existing on different timelines. Wangri found them two by reversing time and space and cutting off cause and effect over and over again.
In fact, there should be two reasons that can really relieve Wanri.
The first one was to save Li Pingan, who was seriously injured after being hit;
The other thing is to see another self.
And this self, under the current possibility, no longer has to endure the pain and suffering that he did.
'Maybe that's the case, I'm not him either.'
Li Pingan turned around and floated away, like a feather, floating back to the heaven.
In the next few days, he focused on spending time with his family.
After joining the Tao, the Tao of Heaven has become an extension of his thinking. Although Li Pingan still needs to understand the key tips by himself in his current practice and enlightenment, he can already "hang up slowly in the background" and let the Tao of Heaven help him understand on his own.
It's just that the efficiency of this kind of hang-up is too low. I'm afraid that when the world is destroyed, I won't be able to reach the realm of saints.
Becoming a god is also his last free time.
In fact, it is not idle time. During this period of time, he wants to specialize in a crucial and difficult avenue - the avenue of all living beings.
Only by getting close to all living beings and observing the world from a mortal perspective can this avenue take the final critical steps.
After the great catastrophe of becoming a god, if there are still deficiencies in the way of living beings, then he will use a ray of soul to reincarnate and continue to realize the way.
When the path of all sentient beings reaches perfection, he will enter the core retreat of the path of heaven to make final preparations for the creation of the world.
That is the real way to survive the catastrophe!
Yaochi, the Emperor's bedroom, Mu Ningning's room.
Li Ping'an appeared from the recliner. Mu Ningning, who was lying on her back reading a book, suddenly shouted in fright: "Brother! Why are you silent!"
"What are you looking at?"
"It's a painting book from Dong'an City," Mu Ningning said with a smile, "Aren't you busy?"
Li Ping'an smiled and said, "I just wanted to keep my body here so that you wouldn't get used to it."
"There's nothing unusual about this."
Mu Ningning jumped over with a smile and rubbed Li Ping'an's shoulders:
"You have been running around for the sake of living beings and for the harmony of heaven and earth. I can take care of the family and not cause you any trouble. I am already satisfied.
"Don't think about how you have to accompany me. You should do your business first. There will be a long time to get together in the future. Then we must get together until you annoy me."
Li Ping'an blinked, raised his hand to catch her catkin, and pulled gently, Mu Ningning sat into his arms.
The couple looked at each other, and just as they were about to express their tenderness, a tinkling bell suddenly rang in Li Ping'an's ears.
He was slightly startled and smiled apologetically at Mu Ningning.
Mu Ningning immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Go and get busy. I'll wait for you to come back."
"Okay," Li Ping'an closed his eyes and concentrated, his mind moved away in an instant, but his body still stayed here.
The next moment.
The young Ji Dan opened his eyes and saw the gently shaking roof of the carriage frame. The female guard beside him let out a long sigh of relief.
"Fourth Young Master! You finally woke up!"
"The king said that you went on a journey, and when you came back you were cared for by gods. It really scared us to death!"
"Yes, you were unconscious for a long time this time!"
Li Ping'an smiled and when he raised his hand, he found a small black bell on his wrist.
What kind of bell is that? It's just a shrunken Chaos Clock.
Li Ping'an asked: "Just now I was drinking with the immortal in the sky. It seemed that something happened here. The immortal told me that it was time to come back. Where are we?"
"You really saw an immortal!"
"This! Write this down quickly! Report it to the master!"
The female guards were very excited.
Li Ping'an was a little helpless: "I was asking what happened outside."
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from outside the carriage: "Fourth, it's me. I stopped your carriage and I want to talk to you about something... Can I come in?"
