Ye Yi suddenly realized: "Oh, it turns out that only the two of you are left fighting for it. In the end, Jumang won and you lost, so you hid in this barren mountain."
Hou Tu smiled bitterly and said: "So... In fact, the reason for our division is not the uneven distribution of power, but our different opinions on the balance of pure and turbidity. Gou Mang feels that the only way to maintain the balance of pure and turbidity is to control the turbidity. In our own hands, we are pure spirits, so naturally we cannot control the turbid energy, but we can use other methods to suppress and store the turbid energy. In this way, even if the turbid spirit dies, the heaven will not be out of balance."
Tianlan was surprised after hearing this and said: "This is the reality of the ritual of offering sacrifices to the sky. He takes away the turbid energy."
Hou Tu nodded and said: "Yes, Jumang's way of collecting turbid qi is through the ritual of offering sacrifices to the sky. The specific method is very complicated. The principle is based on the collection of bloodshed and resentment, supplemented by the formation of subverting the pure and turbid qi. The center of the array is set up in the God Emperor's Palace..."
"But I didn't agree with his move back then. Since the way of heaven has given pure and turbid qi to the pure and turbid gods respectively, the real solution is to live in harmony with the pure and turbid. If he forcefully seizes the turbid qi like this, In the end, you will inevitably be punished by heaven and fall into the devil's path, and the pure and turbid air of heaven and earth will eventually become unbalanced, causing harm to the three realms..."
Tian Lan sighed secretly: "I didn't expect that the ritual of worshiping the sky would have this purpose... It should be said that Gou Mang is also a genius. He can think of such an extreme and unorthodox method, but he is still too naive. If the heaven and earth are pure and turbid, It’s so easy to fool, even the Five Heavenly Emperors don’t have to sacrifice themselves for it…”
Hou Tu said as he walked: "Yes, the law of heaven is constant. God will not comment on everything we do, but it will give corresponding punishments. So we are actually ants living under the law of heaven. God, haha, just self-proclaimed,"
Ye Yi said: "So, since the ancient times a million years ago, the turbid god has been at a disadvantage, and the clear and turbid qi are mostly pure, so you must really hope that the turbid god will become stronger,"
Hou Tu smiled bitterly again and said: "How should I put it? This is indeed the case for the balance of pure and turbidity, but the hatred between Qingshen and turbidity is too deep to be reconciled. If the turbidity becomes stronger, how will the clearing deal with itself?"
After all, he is still a member of Qingshen. Naturally, the safety of Qingshen as a whole is the starting point. In other words, the differences between him and Gou Mang are basically for the long-term survival of Qingshen in the heaven. However, their opinions on this The cognition is not the same. On the other hand, although he firmly believes in his beliefs, he has to consider whether the balance between clear and turbid will bring about greater disputes between clear and turbid.
This was the real reason why he hesitated to say anything.
Ye Yi curled his lips and said disdainfully: "What? You are hesitant and timid. You are not generous at all. If you think too much, you won't be able to accomplish anything."
Hou Tu sighed: "You don't understand. The change of purity and turbidity is a change of the way of heaven. Nothing in the world can stop or change it. One wrong step will bring about the consequences of the destruction of the three realms. It's not up to me...we are not careful..."
Ye Yize said: "What about 'we'? Do you still regard Jumang as a close friend? I really don't understand you. Look at how decisive Jumang is. You have been driven to such a barren mountain wilderness." If it’s bad, can’t you learn from it?”
Hou Tu said bitterly: "Although our ways are different, we are still...comrades in arms who were born together...but sometimes I really don't understand how Mushen could have such extreme thoughts because he has the most docile temperament."
Tian Lan was confused and said: "Mu Shen has a gentle temperament."
Hou Tu affirmed: "Yes, there were five gods among us back then. The God of Fire was violent, the God of Metal was strong, and the God of Water was erratic and unpredictable. Only the God of Wood had an extremely gentle personality. He was the God in charge of life and had a deep love for all things in the three realms. The unparalleled loving heart is no exception to Zhuoshen. The reason why we did not focus on attacking Zhuoshen back then was because he contributed the most, but now..."
Ye Yi snorted and said: "A changeable person has no principles. Why should he be called the God of Wood? Let's just call him the God of Death."
Tian Lan actually doesn't have much interest in Gou Mang himself. In contrast, he is more concerned about how to make the Zhuo Shen stronger and get rid of the shadow of the Qing Shen. The top priority now is to eliminate the haze caused by the ritual of worshiping the sky, otherwise they will be able to make the Zhuo Shen stronger. I'm afraid I won't be able to survive the next Qingzhuo God War.
He asked Houtu: "Lord Houtu, do you have any way to resist the ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven?"
Since Hou Tu came out specifically to find him, he must have already made a plan. He may not be 100% sure, but now even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, Tianlan is willing to give it a try.
Hou Tu frowned and said with a gloomy look on his face: "This...I thought of a way, but I don't know...Oh, that's all. Since you have extremely turbid Qi, you should be able to find a way."
He continued to walk forward. At this time, he was quite far away from Jiejianchi. They had walked at least hundreds of miles, but they were still wandering in the mountains. This was not a single mountain, but an entire mountain range. They didn't know the back soil. Where do you plan to take them?
Tianlan said solemnly: "I hope that Lord Tu will inform you later."
Hou Tu explained again: "The ritual of offering sacrifices to the sky is Jumang's method of controlling the pure and turbid air. Each time he seals a part of the turbid air, the heaven gradually becomes filled with pure air. He wants to prevent him from collecting the flesh, blood and blood needed to seal the turbid air." It is very difficult to express resentment, because there are too many people in the heaven, and even if he kills his own people, it will be enough. If he wants to stop the ritual, then he needs to go to the God Emperor's Palace... But I think Zhuoshen is all over now I don’t have that kind of power to go out, right?”
Tian Lan felt a little sad and said truthfully: "Senior is right, the power of the Zhuo Shen...cannot be compared with that of the Qing Shen."
Not to mention old monsters like Gou Mang, Hou Tu, and the tomb-keeper Granny, just talking about Bai Qiu and Qiao Rushan are just the tip of the iceberg in the world of heaven. If Tianlan hadn't been there to break through the encirclement that day, Bai Qiu and Qiao Rushan would have been there. Any one who comes out can easily crush them all to death.
Hou Tu said: "Jumang has been planning for many years. Now the strength of the God Emperor's Palace is so powerful that even I can't imagine it. I can't suggest you to die. Therefore, you can't stop Jumang from carrying out the ritual of worshiping the sky."
Ye Yi said angrily: "What, are we helpless? Hey, uncle, can you help me? You told us so many things, pretending to be true, but in the end you have nothing to do about the current situation. So irresponsible,”
Hou Tu twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Why are you so anxious? I haven't finished speaking yet... It's true, your temperament is exactly the same as the legendary Emperor Jiuxian..."
Ye Yi said blankly: "What?"
Tian Lan explained in a low voice: "In your previous life, your name was Bai Yu, and you were also known as the 'Jiuxian Emperor'. He must have just heard our conversation,"
Hou Tu smiled playfully and said to Ye Yi: "Do you want to know about your previous life?"
Ye Yi was stunned for a second, then decisively shook his head and said: "I don't want to, my previous life has nothing to do with me, I am who I am,"
But Tianlan was very interested and said: "You know about the Emperor Jiu Xian,"
Hou Tu smiled and said: "Jiuxian Emperor... Speaking of which, there are not many records about him. Even if it was half a million years ago, I couldn't find any history books about him. I only know that he was born in a poor family, but he was extremely talented. Terrifying, he can be said to be the most talented person in the history of Qingshen. Haha, if the ancient emperor is the leader among the turbid gods, then the Jiuxian Emperor is the laurel among the Qingshen. It is a pity that he has not reached the peak of cultivation. Died young..."
Tianlan said in surprise: "Died young, why is that?"
Ye Yi said he didn't want to know, but when others were talking about his past life, he couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen secretly.
Hou Tu said: "I don't know. No one knows why the Emperor Jiuxian died. I heard that after the first clear and turbid imbalance was restored a million years ago, some people saw him, but then no one knew his whereabouts. , but not long after, someone discovered that his jade medal of life was completely broken. Some said that he was killed by his enemies, while others said that he was tired of the world and threw himself into the Jiejian Pond to commit suicide... There are different opinions, "
Tianlan couldn't help but take a deep look at Ye Yi. Things that happened a million years ago are too far away for them. It seems that it is not easy to know their true experiences in previous lives. Even people like Hou Tu have the longest life span. The great master only knows a few fragments from the history books.
The history books are all written by the latter. Even if there is no controversy, it cannot be fully believed. What's more, there are so many uncertain statements. If... Tianlan can completely recall the memories of the first ancient life, can he know who he is? And the cause of death of Ye Yi in his previous life.
Ye Yi felt a little irritated when he heard that, and urged: "Hey, uncle, didn't you say you want to tell us how to deal with that sacrifice to heaven? Why are you talking about something that is not there? Let's get back to the topic quickly."
Hou Tu smiled and kept walking, saying: "There's no rush... Even if I tell you about this, there's no rush... Haha, it's said that the first great turmoil in the pure and turbid air of heaven and earth was a million years ago. , that is, the era when the ancient emperor lived. At that time, the ancient emperor also made great efforts to balance the pure and turbid. The difference from now is that the turbid air was too strong and completely suppressed the pure air. Therefore, the ancient emperor placed the three realms in the middle. A large amount of turbid air was sealed somewhere, known in history as the 'Seal of the Forbidden'."
"The Forbidden Seal..." Tianlan murmured these four words in a low voice, feeling his head tingling inexplicably...
Hou Tu continued to explain: "The seal of the taboo seals not only the turbid qi, but also the activity of the turbid qi. When the disease in the world is excessive pure qi, if the seal of the taboo can be unlocked, the turbid qi in the world will disappear. It's soaring. Even if Gou Mang seals part of the turbid energy through the 'Rite of Sacrifice to Heaven', you will still have enough power to compete with the Qing Shen. At least, it is impossible for the Qing Shen to destroy all the turbid gods."
