Looking at the identical words on the jade slip, Qi Wuhuo and Zhang Xiaoyu paused for a moment, and then the young Jade Emperor laughed and said, "It seems that you and I are indeed in tune with each other. Wuhuo, we are indeed allies and good brothers."
“But I’m also a little curious.”
"Why did you decide to make the move to become a god?"
Qi Wuhuo asked back: "I am also curious about you."
Zhang Xiaoyu laughed, tossing the jade slip in his hand, and answered nonchalantly:
"For me, isn't it a very simple matter? It's easy to understand. If we use the words of your human world, it is [a new emperor appoints new ministers]. There are too many intertwined forces in the heavens, and they are too complicated. There is one faction of the Four Emperors, one faction of Taoism, and the other faction of Taoism is divided into the Three Pure Ones. There is also the Tianshu Academy over there."
"We have to sort out such troublesome forces and carefully maintain the balance."
“This is what I’ve been doing for such a long time.”
"But, Wuhuo, do you think I have such talent?"
"Of course not!"
Qi Wuhuo's answer was concise and to the point.
Zhang Xiaoyu’s smile froze.
Then he said calmly: "Sir and Emperor Qinghua both think I have it, but you are right, I don't have this talent, so I thought about it and decided to find another way. Since I can't stabilize this chaotic situation, then I have no choice but to add fuel to the fire."
"Let's make this situation even more chaotic!"
The Jade Emperor threw the jade slip in his hand up and it landed on the chessboard on the table. There was a sound of "clacking", and countless chess pieces splashed up. They were clearly black and white and fell to the ground with a crisp sound. He said, "It seems like this. The time of existence of the Heavenly Court is really too long, for several calamities. It is undeniable that they did hold the idea of the world and the six realms at the beginning of the creation, but after such a long time, it has already become rigid."
"The Heavenly Palace used to be peaceful and tranquil, but now it is almost withered and decayed. What do you think we should do, fellow Taoist?"
Qi Wuhuo swept his sleeves, and all the chess pieces on the board were swept flat and fell to the ground.
"Cut the Gordian knot."
Zhang Xiaoyu exclaimed in praise, "As expected of a Zhenwu **demon."
He asked again: "But what if these withered and decayed branches are still entangled with the entire world, and if the Gordian knot is cut, it will inevitably cause a world turmoil and the death of all things? What then?"
Qi Wuhuo replied: "If so, it is like a large lake, which should be fed with living water from a source."
“Even if it takes a hundred years or a thousand years to accomplish, we can still make the lake clear again step by step.”
Zhang Xiaoyu said: "That's right."
“To rebel against the Heavenly Palace, we need to disintegrate it from within. The external Heavenly Palace is still an unshakable behemoth. If the heroes of the human race are deified and enter the Heavenly Palace, then the part of the Heavenly Palace that is hostile to the human race will be balanced. If the number of immortals and gods that were previously hostile to the human race or did not want to see the rise of the human race has reached 70%.”
"If the human race also joins in, it will be enough to offset the influence of this part of the immortal gods. This is the so-called [using gods to control gods]. At that time, we can concentrate our energy on guarding against the Southern Pole Changsheng Emperor and Tianshuyuan."
"I believe that although all living things have their own desires, those who are chosen to be deified are all heroes among humans, with wills and souls strong enough to bear the imperial decree. If such people are given power, they will never betray the world. Of course, although the possibility of this happening is very small, it is not impossible, so we need to be prepared."
Qi Wuhuo looked at the Jade Emperor, the head of the heaven, and seriously considered how to destroy the current heaven.
Change the blood again.
It feels weird.
Zhang Xiaoyu said: "That's my reason. The deification of the human race is a good thing for both the human race and the heavens. So, what's your reason, Wuhuo?"
Qi Wuhuo said: "Similar to yours."
"There are too many enemies..."
He whispered in his heart that Fuxi had made him face too many enemies - at that moment he almost felt that all the immortals and gods in heaven had come down to show their magical powers, not to mention the many Buddhist monks from the Western Buddhist Kingdom. Under such circumstances, unless the human race developed to the level of breaking through the Heavenly Court within three hundred years, otherwise, it would be at a great disadvantage.
In this case, there is only one way.
Let the gods in heaven contain some of the human spirits.
Qi Wuhuo thought of what Wei Lizhai had said before, that one cannot rely on the protection of immortals and gods. He paused, looked at Zhang Xiaoyu, and said, "But I thought of something that is different from yours..."
"It is not deification by imperial decree, but deification by the incense of humanity's destiny."
"They are not the gods of heaven, but the gods of humanity."
"He is not the god of gods, but the brave and valiant ancestors. He is the god of the primordial spirit."
It seemed as if a strong wind was blowing across the world. The autumn leaves on the mountain were scattered like flying snow, flying between the two people in front of the chessboard and falling to the earth. The sky was high and heavy, and a crack appeared in the conversation between the two people at this moment. Although they seemed to have the same appeal, their positions were clearly revealed.
Zhang Xiaoyu holds a white piece, wears a jade crown and a white dress as white as snow;
The Taoist priest wore a light grey robe, his hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin, and he had a peaceful expression.
Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "It should be so."
Born for the human race, fight for the human race!
The divine power is achieved because of the destiny of humanity, and the human destiny is commanded to protect the world.
Although I am in heaven to take up my post.
But he will never become a high and mighty god looking down on the world.
Zhang Xiaoyu said: "Wuhuo, if you also have this intention, there are some other things. How do you control these [Gods] and where do you accommodate them on weekdays?"
The Taoists answered all of them one by one.
The two of them talked to each other and made their moves at random.
Finally, Zhang Xiaoyu looked at the chessboard and said with a smile: "It's a draw, never mind, I'll give you this." He loosened his hand, and the chess pieces scattered on the table. Then he turned his wrist and took out something. It was a scroll with an ancient jade axis, with light golden words on it. The charm was flowing, and it was indescribably mysterious.
"This is……"
Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I guessed your idea and copied a part of the Heavenly Book in advance. This item is not available to ordinary people, but you are different. You once confronted the judiciary on my behalf. At that time, you left a part of your mark. Although it is impossible to completely control the Heavenly Book, there is no problem with this scroll magic weapon."
"With your strength, you are enough to confer titles upon the gods beneath you..."
Qi Wuhuo held the file and said, "Okay."
The voice paused, looking at the sky, his eyes moved, as if he could see the eyes of the immortals in the nine heavens. The immortals were not stupid, they would fight back, not to mention the plan to unify the world in the human world, so he said slowly: "The immortals in the heavens will never let me do this."
"So, Xiaoyu, I plan to restart the plan of the ancient human saint king - Jedi Tiantong."
"Seal this heaven and earth, immortals cannot enter, and humans cannot leave!"
Zhang Xiaoyu looked at Qi Wuhuo and said, "I have the same idea."
"When you have the connection between heaven and earth, I will order the sealing of the Heaven Palace."
"Be prepared for our plan."
"When you are in the human world and are truly ready, I will personally descend to the earth and welcome you to heaven!"
Zhang Xiaoyu clenched his fist and stretched it out. The Taoist also clenched his fist. The two fists touched each other. Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "So, don't forget our agreement. When the time comes, you and I will kill the justice and suppress the sky. Let our names shake the sky."
Zhang Xiaoyu said: "It's not Tai Shang Xuan Wei, but Qi Wu Huo."
Qi Wuhuo replied: "It's not Haotian's reincarnation, but Zhang Xiaoyu."
Qi Wuhuo stood up, and the solemnity and calmness on Zhang Xiaoyu's face faded into a smile. He stretched out his arm and put it on the Taoist's shoulder, saying, "So, let me stay here and have a meal today. I have never eaten the food made by the Queen herself!"
The young Taoist said succinctly:
"Goodbye, I won't see you off."
Zhang Xiaoyu laughed out loud.
"Just kidding."
"Just kidding, don't be so inflexible."
"But I don't plan to go either. I'm worried that Emperor Xi will directly put poison in my meal."
"According to Haotian's understanding of him, he will definitely do so."
Zhang Xiaoyu waved his hand with his back to the young Taoist priest, then paused for a moment, turned sideways to look at Qi Wuhuo, and said, "However, Wuhuo, perhaps it is a bit redundant for me to say this. Before our grand plan begins, do you want to go to the Northern Emperor's Palace of Stars and meet Miss Yunqin?"
"Once this plan is launched, the sky and the earth will be connected. Even with our status, it will be difficult for us to meet. Miss Yunqin is only a human immortal. It will take at least sixty years, and at most three hundred years. You two are far apart, so it will be difficult for you to meet. Before that, it won't hurt to meet, right?"
“After all, among the identities known to the world, you are the invincible Fire Emperor, you are the Zhenwu Demon Emperor who became famous by killing Donghua as soon as he was born, and you are the Supreme Xuanwei Zhenren. But to her, you are just Qi Wuhuo who played with her in the Tianhe River when they were young.”
Zhang Xiaoyu spoke gently.
The Taoist was silent for a long time.
The Jade Emperor laughed a few times, then flicked his sleeves and disappeared into the wind. Only the sound of clouds and wind could be heard. The pavilions and towers dispersed, and only a Taoist priest was left standing on the top of the mountain, with the sunset on his shoulders and the deep autumn all over his body.
…
When Qi Wuhuo returned to the storage room, he saw Fuxi taking something out of the void and adding it to a bowl of rice. This thing was glowing with light and had a very strong aura of the Great Dao. It was clear and transparent, and it was pleasing to the eye. The scholar in green asked, "Where is the guy who turned around at Haotian?"
Qi Wuhuo asked: "...I went back, what is this?"
The scholar in blue shirt raised his eyebrows and asked, "Going back?"
"But it was a waste of my bowl of added ingredients."
He seemed to let out a click of his tongue, and took out everything in the bowl of rice. He looked quite serious and careful, not wanting to touch even a little bit of it with his fingers. The Taoist asked what it was, and the scholar in green said nonchalantly, "Ah? Nothing, just a little bit of horse poison, a little bit of Dao residue, and a little bit of the condensation of the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man."
"With his foundation, he can't die."
Fuxi never tells lies.
Can't die.
I really just can't die.
Qi Wuhuo ignored him. After finishing his meal that day, he began to look through the fragments of the Heavenly Book in his hand. He then took out the River Map and Luo Shu. The River Map and Luo Shu contained the power of the ancient kings of the human race. Qi Wuhuo mobilized human Qi and injected it into the River Map and Luo Shu. The hexagrams on it flowed and changed unpredictably, which stimulated the power of the ancient times.
An illusory male figure appeared in front of Qi Wuhuo. He looked calm and composed, wearing ordinary and simple robes. His eyebrows were beautiful, but he also had a heroic spirit. He said to himself: "My name is Zhuanxu. People in the future will keep my formation here according to the agreement with Emperor Xi."
This is the power of the kings of the human race in the ancient times, which was recorded by Fuxi as if it were a conversation spanning history and time. The ancient kings of the human race passed on and told all the skills that gathered all the wisdom and determination of mankind in that era to later generations.
Along with brilliant golden words and a gentle voice, streams of light spread out, crisscrossing in front of Qi Wuhuo and transforming into the [Jedi Tiantong] formation, which was known as the ultimate formation. Jianmu was cut off because of it. Unfortunately, the [Jedi Tiantong] was not enough to completely seal the human world and the outside world, and it eventually collapsed in several major chaos.
"So the Qi of the human world changes and severs itself from the outside world, using this severing barrier to prevent the immortals and gods from interfering in the human world? This is an unparalleled strategy..."
"But the Qi of humanity ultimately relies on high-ranking practitioners. Once there are not enough high-ranking practitioners in a certain generation, or if they are unwilling to guard the world, this [Jedi Tiantong] will be broken from the inside."
"It was not the gods who broke this formation, but the contradictions within humanity."
Qi Wuhuo understood the formation, and the aura of Zhuanxu that left behind the formation slowly dissipated, and the power and memory carried by his aura were firmly imprinted in the Taoist's body, as if he had turned into Zhuanxu and experienced all the ancient times, from creating the prototype of the Jedi Tiantong to finally chopping off Jianmu and completing all the experiences of the formation.
From this, I also knew the problem with the [Jedi Tiantong] formation.
"The world may not always have outstanding practitioners, but there must be people who work hard to live. These ants in the eyes of immortals and gods are the cornerstones of the world. It is because you realized this that you opened up the way of human destiny..."
"It is feasible to use the instrument of human destiny to replace the strong man guarding this place and rebuild the [Jedi Tiantong]."
Qi Wuhuo quickly deduced the formation, and then perfected it with the instrument of humanity's destiny.
After more than ten days of sleepless nights, he finally completed the formation with the help of the powerful auxiliary ability of the [Hetu Luoshu]. He exhaled slowly, looking at the completed sketch on the table, feeling happy in his heart. He raised his finger, turned it into a talisman, and wanted to contact the outside world, but paused.
But then he thought of what Zhang Xiaoyu had said to him and the girl's face.
The subsequent plan will inevitably take up a great deal of time and energy.
Pause.
But he also said to himself: "I am the same, I only seize the day."
Communications Contact——
The mighty King Li Zhai.
Li Zhai laughed and said, "Hahaha, it's rare for you to contact me on your own initiative. Qi Wuhuo, what's the matter?"
"As long as you tell me, I will help you."
Qi Wuhuo quickly told Li Zhai about the plan to buy time for the Jedi Tiantong and seal the gods in the human world. Li Zhai stood up suddenly, his eyes shining brightly, and he laughed loudly, "Good, good, good!"
"Master, what do you need?!"
Qi Wuhuo looked at the formation sketch, at the nodes that lit up one by one, and said: "All formations have nodes, and there are formation tools on the nodes to suppress fate. I want you to hand over all the tools of humanity in the entire Shenwu Kingdom to me."
"all?!"
"all!"
Li Zhai did not hesitate: "Okay!"
"what are you up to?"
"do what……"
The Taoist replied, "To fulfill your long-cherished wish, the long-cherished wish of this era, the long-cherished wish of my senior brother eight thousand years ago, and even the wishes of the kings and people of all generations dating back to the earliest years. I will forge a set of important instruments of humanity to suppress the human world, serve as a node, and turn into a great formation."
Li Zhai caught the key words and asked, "A set?"
"Yes, nine."
"As for the shape..."
The Taoist thought for a moment and said:
"Just [Ding]."
