Chapter 751: Dongjun and Yunzhongjun
In the Jiuge pantheon, Taiyi is the supreme monarch, the symbol of Taiyi Star, and the greatest sun.
However, in terms of the specific division of responsibilities, Taiyi also has a subordinate god - Dongjun.
Dongjun is Taiyi's deputy, the god of the sun, the east, and spring.
Although the original Jiuge pantheon no longer existed after joining the Shanhai civilization, the Jiuge gods also integrated into the Shanhai world according to their own wishes.
But Dongjun is one of the very few gods who has not chosen to leave.
Until the moment Taichi temporarily took over the priesthood of "Sun Controller".
Dongjun knew that his former main god had also abandoned the Jiuge pantheon and embarked on another new path.
Faced with the disintegration of the Jiuge pantheon, Dongjun had actually already prepared himself mentally.
However, when this fact really appeared before his eyes, Dongjun still found it difficult to accept it for a while.
"You are just too persistent sometimes..."
Silently, a white dragon emerged from the clouds and appeared in front of Dongjun.
This white dragon is none other than Yun Zhongjun who has already embarked on the path of "refining Qi".
As a dual god opposite to Dongjun, Yunzhongjun is the moon god, thunder god, water god, and the god in charge of clouds and rain in the Jiuge pantheon.
Both of them have tried their best to compete for the position of deputy to Donghuang Taiyi.
Although Taiyi eventually chose Dongjun as his deputy to help him control the rising and setting of the sun, the two gods did not turn against each other.
When Dongjun goes to war, Yunzhongjun will carry out his mission for him.
When the Lord of the East returns triumphantly, the Lord of the Clouds will dance for him.
In some ancient myths, Dongjun and Yunzhongjun even exist as brothers or even husband and wife.
From this, we can see how close the relationship between the two gods is.
According to legend, Dongjun was once imprisoned by an evil demon, and it was the angry Yunzhongjun who defeated the enemy alone and finally rescued him.
From that day on, the entire Heluo world knew how terrifying the usually indifferent Yun Zhongjun could be once he got angry.
The dark clouds that covered the sky obscured the brilliance of the sun and the moon...
Endless thunder fell on the vast earth...
The world seemed to be in doomsday at that moment. Even the most terrifying evil god was not as scary as the angry Yun Zhongjun.
Since then, Yunzhongjun has another unknown title - Eclipse Lord.
The angry Yun Zhongjun possesses the power to corrode the heaven and earth, and only the supreme Donghuang can stop the rampaging Yun Zhongjun.
"It's not that I'm too persistent, it's that you're too casual."
Manifesting himself in the form of a green snake, Dongjun looked up at the white dragon in the sky.
"Our traditions, our culture, and even ourselves are being absorbed and assimilated by the mountain and sea civilization. Why don't you realize how terrible this is?"
Facing Dongjun's questioning, Yunzhongjun just shook his head indifferently.
"Let's not talk about the fact that our Father God originally came from the Mountain and Sea Realm. The absorption and assimilation you mentioned are nothing more than returning to one's origin."
"Even if we are absorbed and assimilated by the Shanhai Civilization, what can we do?"
"Culture and tradition are a kind of custom that has been agreed upon, and customs can be changed."
"You think that the Shanhai Civilization is absorbing our civilization. How do you know that it is not our civilization that is influencing the growing Shanhai Civilization?"
After a slight pause, Yun Zhongjun looked at the still stubborn Dongjun and continued to ask.
"Besides, aren't you the one who admires Dong Huang the most?"
"Why don't you approve of Donghuang's choice this time?"
Even Donghuang Taiyi, the "God of Heaven", gave up his former identity and became the Sun Controller of the Mountain and Sea Realm. Yun Zhongjun really didn't know what Dongjun was still clinging to.
"I……"
Dongjun opened his mouth hesitantly and wanted to refute, but he didn't know what to refute.
From a rational point of view, Dongjun knew clearly that the choice of the Jiuge gods was correct, and the Shanhai civilization did not treat them harshly.
However, as the most human god among the Jiuge gods, Dongjun's sensibility makes him unable to accept this fact.
"I think you also know that the traditions and magic from our civilization have already taken root in this world."
"In the Brilliant Realm, there even appeared a being similar to the Eastern Emperor."
"Although the people of the mountains and seas and the immortals call it the 'Master of Ghosts and Gods', isn't its essence the 'Venerable God of Heaven'?"
"From this point of view alone, do you think there is any world more suitable for us to survive than the Mountain and Sea Realm?"
Without even waiting for Dongjun to refute, Yunzhongjun stated a well-known fact.
"Face up to your current situation!"
"If you really don't want our civilization to perish, then work hard to grow into a greater being!"
"When you become the sun of the Mountain and Sea Realm, who dares to say that you are not the true 'Lord of the East'?"
Hearing this, Dongjun took a deep breath.
Of course, he knew that what Yun Zhongjun said was all correct, and he also knew that the mountain and sea civilization did provide a further step for his growth.
But when I think of the people of Heluo who worked hard to grow under my protection, I realize how they were so easily forgotten.
Dongjun felt extremely tortured and at one point felt that he had let down the people of Heluo.
"Are you still thinking about the people under your rule?"
At this moment, Yun Zhongjun seemed to see Dongjun's inner thoughts and suddenly asked.
Among all the Nine Songs gods, Dongjun is the closest to ordinary people.
Even lower-level gods like He Bo and Shan Gui are not as good as Dong Jun in this respect.
This god of spring, who is in charge of spring thunder and harvest, will go to the human world at the beginning of spring every year to take the initiative to remind and help ordinary people in need.
When Bai Ze insisted on declaring war on the Emperor, Dong Jun was the first to stand up and oppose it.
He did not want his people to be caught up in war and suffering, so he even rejected the resurrection of Bai Ze Tu at the beginning and did not appear in the war against Di Jun.
It was not until Li Hao recast the [Star Cauldron] and Yao Xin became the new master of the Nine Songs Gods that Dongjun was able to be resurrected in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
“…”
After a brief silence, Dongjun finally nodded.
"They are the most hardworking people in the world. They should not perish because of our war, nor should they be completely forgotten by us."
His voice was filled with fatigue that was difficult to conceal, and Dongjun's words made Yunzhongjun silent as well.
Yun Zhongjun really wanted to refute Dongjun's ridiculous remarks, but he had to admit that it was Dongjun like this who was worthy of his full trust.
"If you still miss them, then go and revive them!"
After a moment, Yun Zhongjun finally spoke again.
"The creator of this world is a much more powerful being than the Eastern Emperor and Father God..."
"It is said that He created a special artifact called the 'magic lamp' not long ago..."
"If you can find that artifact, perhaps you can revive your former followers."
