Assuming the Heavenly Book eventually ended up in the hands of the Queen Mother of the West, its fragmentation was clearly related to her.
There is a key mystery involved.
The question is whether the Heavenly Book was divided into nine parts because of the Heavenly Emperor's fall or disappearance, or whether the Queen Mother of the West deliberately destroyed it, leading to the Heavenly Emperor's eventual demise.
Assuming the Heavenly Book truly records the secrets of Emperor Cheng, why didn't the Queen Mother of the West become Emperor Cheng?
"Queen Mother of the West... Peach Banquet... So Qu Bai, are you saying that Lin Qiaoyin went to great lengths to revive the Heavenly Realm just to recreate this banquet?"
Bai Fei pondered as he combed through his thoughts.
"That's roughly the idea. You can think of these heavenly soldiers and generals, these fairies, and all the scenes of the heavenly realm that we see as a fragment of time and space from back then."
Qu Bai nodded and said, "That's why they still follow some rules and retain a certain degree of self-awareness."
The group looked at each other, clearly still somewhat bewildered.
"Assuming this is a setup, orchestrated by Lin Qiaoyin or the scavenger witch who led Jiang Chengye into the 'door,' then from the moment we entered the 'door,' we entered their trap."
Shen Qian spoke up, succinctly revealing the crux of the matter, "They set up this scheme to recreate the Heavenly Realm from back then, even including that Peach Banquet, gathering all of us here..."
"But this still doesn't explain what Jiang Chengye and his group's purpose is."
Qu Bai then raised his own question.
After a moment's thought, a sudden inspiration struck him: "The Queen Mother of the West... their target is the Queen Mother of the West!"
“That’s right, do you remember the resounding announcement before the Yaochi Banquet? It was to celebrate the return of the Queen Mother of the West…”
Bai Fei also remembered something.
"Therefore, the missing Queen Mother of the West did not die, and it is very likely that she has returned to the Heavenly Realm."
"But why did the Queen Mother of the West come back?"
Shen Qian frowned, a new question arising in his mind: "Assuming that the Queen Mother of the West left the Heavenly Realm on her own initiative, what reason would she have to return?"
"Heavenly Book".
At this moment, Lin Sanmo, who had been silent until now, uttered two words.
Reminded by Lin Sanmo, Shen Qian's body jolted, and his mind instantly cleared. "That's right, the Heavenly Book!"
"What do you mean?" Qu Bai was now completely bewildered. "Wasn't the Heavenly Book destroyed by the Queen Mother of the West herself?"
"It's because the Heavenly Book may have been destroyed by the Queen Mother of the West herself. So when the Heavenly Realm revived and the Heavenly Book reappeared, she had to come back!"
Seeing that Qu Bai was still confused, Chen Qian added, "Tantai Qin once told us that if the split Heavenly Books were gathered together, besides the possibility of unlocking the secret to becoming an emperor, there was a second possibility..."
"The vice principal said that, according to legend, the Heavenly Book contains the remnants of the Heavenly Emperor's will, and once the Heavenly Book is fully collected, the Heavenly Emperor will be resurrected."
Zhao Keyi finally caught up with the rhythm, and his expression changed.
"Could the Heavenly Emperor be resurrected?"
Qu Bai was horrified. "That's a terrifying existence above even kings and nobles! According to the records of the Taibai Palace, on the day the Heavenly Emperor ascended to the throne, he single-handedly wiped out the largest force in the Heavenly Realm, the Witch God Clan. Six of the seven kings of the Witch Clan perished, and the Witch Clan was wiped out from the Heavenly Realm from that day on..."
"Such a thing is true?"
He exclaimed in surprise.
However, this also explains why, in ancient times, despite the great strength of the Wu Clan, they were almost nowhere to be found in the Heavenly Realm among the three realms.
It turns out he was directly eliminated by the Heavenly Emperor...
To slaughter six kings and nobles single-handedly, including some top-tier figures, such strength can only be described as outrageous.
"If such an existence exists, immortality should just be a basic requirement, then the second legend about the Heavenly Book is very likely true."
He murmured before sinking down.
"Speaking of which, although the Heavenly Emperor is strong, there are people who can rival him... and this person is a native human."
At this moment, Qu Bai seemed to remember something interesting and spoke up.
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned to look.
The key word is "human race," which is enough to arouse their great interest. After all, everyone already has a clear concept of how powerful the Heavenly Emperor is, and how could they not be shocked and curious that a human race could fight against him?
"This matter has been erased from the official history of the Heavenly Realm, but Taibai Xingjun still secretly recorded it himself... although it doesn't seem very true."
Qu Bai began, “About several thousand years ago, at the height of the Heavenly Realm, a human attained enlightenment and ascended to the Immortal Realm. This person was personally guided by Venus. After arriving in the Heavenly Realm, he was granted the immortal position of Bi Ma Wen (弼马温).
"In the Heavenly Realm, Bi Ma Wen was just a minor official with no rank, which greatly displeased the human race. About a hundred years later, he clashed with a deity who came to the Imperial Horse Stable to select celestial horses, and accidentally killed the deity."
"For the immortal realm, which has enjoyed peace for many years, this is absolutely a momentous event!"
"The heavenly soldiers and generals went to capture him, but they were all driven back. Faced with this stubborn human, the Heavenly Emperor had no choice but to send out a true powerhouse to suppress him."
Guess what happened?
Qu Bai paused for a moment at this point.
"No god or immortal could rival him?" Zhao Keyi chuckled. "Isn't this just a story from Journey to the West? Do you think I've never seen the animated version?"
"It's a story very similar to Journey to the West, but the protagonist isn't a monkey; he's a real human!"
