Chapter 193: Settling the Cause and Effect, the Battle for the Emperor
"What does Fellow Taoist mean by this? Why can't I understand it? Fellow Daoist suddenly made a move. How come I asked what I want?"
Faced with Hongjun's question, Huang Long pretended not to know, still looking puzzled.
He did indeed ask for something, and what he asked for was very big, related to the status of a saint.
It is precisely because of this that he must take a tough enough stance.
You need to convey an attitude to Hongjun. You are begging me for this matter, not me begging you!
Hongjun has lived from the beginning of the world to the present, and has successively defeated Jiuyin Ghost Mother, Luo Hu and many other powerful enemies with amazing talents. His mind is not weaker than Huang Long.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Huanglong didn't have the memory of a time traveler.
He knew a lot about the ancient past.
He has a far better understanding of the prehistoric future than anyone else.
Otherwise, he might not be able to become Hongjun's opponent.
Hongjun naturally saw Huang Long's attitude and knew that he might have to pay some price this time.
"The Queen Mother of the West is not allowed to enter the Heavenly Court. Fellow Taoist, please tell me a condition."
Hongjun said straightforwardly, but Huanglong did not put forward any conditions, but said seriously:
"It turns out that this is what fellow Taoist said, but after the Queen Mother of the West moved into the Heavenly Court and became a prehistoric female fairy, it was the return of the Heavenly Court, the desire of all living beings in the wilderness, and the opportunity of the Queen Mother of the West."
"Fellow Taoist, is this a bit too overbearing?"
"There are saints of Heavenly Dao sitting in heaven. I am not afraid that you will abduct the Queen Mother of the West. What do you have to be afraid of?"
"Is it possible that the reputation of the Queen Mother of the West among all sentient beings, or a lonely person like Pindao, can shake the authority of the Heavenly Court?"
Huang Long just told Hongjun clearly with these few words.
If the Queen Mother of the West is allowed to take charge of the Heavenly Court, he will let the Queen Mother of the West win over people's hearts with her own prestige, and eventually seize the power of the Heavenly Court, make Haotian a decoration, and bring the Heavenly Court under the control of the earth.
At that time, all living beings in the Netherworld can become immortals, and earthly immortals can also serve in heaven.
If someone else had said this, Hongjun would just laugh it off.
But this sentence came from Huang Long's mouth, and the person who entered the heaven was the Queen Mother of the West, the head of the female immortals who was once appointed by Hongjun.
Then all this is possible, and the possibility is not small!
Even if Hongjun had left out everything, he would never have thought that one day he would shoot himself in the foot.
If the Queen Mother of the West had not been appointed as the female immortal in the first place, and if the Queen Mother of the West could be prevented from worshiping Huanglongmen, how could something like this happen today?
But then again, the Queen Mother of the West is indeed an excellent candidate to be the first female fairy.
Even now, without thinking about the relationship between heaven and earth, Hongjun still believes that the Queen Mother of the West is an excellent candidate to be the head of the female immortals in heaven.
It is precisely because of this that he pays more and more attention to Huanglong.
When he appointed Queen Mother of the West as the head of the female immortals, Huang Long was not even a Daluo Golden Immortal!
"The Queen Mother of the West is not allowed to enter the Heavenly Court, and the tunnels are not allowed to interfere with the operation of the Heavenly Court. This is the bottom line for poor Taoists. How can fellow Taoists stop, please give me a condition!"
Hongjun's expression became more solemn and he didn't want to talk nonsense to Huang Long.
Seeing this, Huang Long stopped beating around the bush and said everything he needed to say and expressed his attitude.
"This is Queen Mother Xi's own destiny. It's not easy for a poor Taoist to make the decision for her privately, but..."
At this point, Huang Long paused slightly, and Hongjun's face became serious. He knew that Huang Long was going to negotiate terms.
This is indeed the case. Huang Long glanced at Hongjun, his tone was calm, but his attitude was extremely determined.
"However, if fellow Taoist disciples are willing to make up for the loss of Queen Mother Xi's opportunity, and Pindao is willing to persuade her, maybe Queen Mother Xi can give up the idea of entering the Heavenly Court for the sake of watching her master and apprentice."
coming!
Hongjun thought to himself, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.
"Fellow Taoist, just tell me!"
"In that case, Pindao won't talk nonsense. As long as fellow Taoist is willing to settle things with the Queen Mother of the West, Pindao can help fellow Taoist to persuade him."
"not enough!"
Hongjun shook his head, even though Huanglong kept saying that the chance for the Queen Mother of the West to become enlightened lay in heaven.
But how could he not know that the Queen Mother of the West was only one step away from attaining enlightenment.
If instead of ending the cause and effect of preaching in Zixiao Palace, it might not take long for the Queen Mother of the West to attain enlightenment and become a saint.
At that time, the authority of the tunnel will also be enhanced, and a new saint will be added to the tunnel.
No matter how you look at it, this result will not be much better than losing Heaven.
Even if the Tao demonstrated by the Queen Mother of the West can make the prehistoric world more perfect and orderly, the Heavenly Dao Saint can also benefit, and he, the Taoist Ancestor, will benefit even more.
He doesn't want to see this happen, at least... it can't happen now!
Huang Long also understood what Hongjun meant, and he never thought that just relying on the position of a female fairy in heaven would allow Hongjun to take the initiative to end this cause and effect.
This is not realistic. Even if Hongjun takes the initiative to ask for it, the price is still not enough.
"Before the emergence of human nature, the Queen Mother of the West will not be able to attain enlightenment. This is also the bottom line for poor Dao!"
Huang Long and Hongjun are both people with extraordinary minds. They have their own calculations. As long as their attitudes are clear, there is no need to say too much.
In the end, Hongjun nodded after some consideration.
"When it comes to the human race, we can no longer push ourselves too far."
"Only one of the five emperors and poor Taoists will be chosen!"
"Can!"
Hongjun said no more, did not ask Huanglong to make a promise, and disappeared without a trace as when he came.
He knew very well that even if he did not agree to Huang Long's request, the Queen Mother of the West's enlightenment could not be stopped. At most, it would only be a little more obstructive and take more time.
On the other hand, the Heavenly Dao might lose control of the Heavenly Court.
Now that Huang Long has made it clear that the Queen Mother of the West will not prove her Dao before the Human Dao appears in the world.
So for Hongjun, it is more cost-effective to agree to Huang Long's request.
Huang Long looked at the time and space around him gradually returning to normal, and felt quite emotional.
Hongjun is worthy of being the ancestor of the Dao. This kind of strength is far above the saints, but...
The chaotic energy on Huang Long's body swayed, and his figure quietly disappeared.
The Dao he cultivated is different from Hongjun's. It is hard to say who can go further in the future.
When Hongjun and Huang Long left one after another, the space of the Heavenly Court began to fluctuate again, and time resumed to flow.
Everyone present had never noticed what had happened before.
Even the quasi-saints only felt that the space just now seemed a little strange, but they didn't know that Huang Long and Hong Jun had been here before, and determined the birth of a saint.
Only the Queen Mother of the West noticed something.
She could clearly feel that her soul became more relaxed.
It was as if the shackles that had bound her for many years disappeared. She always felt that something was preventing her from becoming a saint.
She knew that if she couldn't solve this problem, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't become a saint.
She had talked to Huang Long about this problem a long time ago.
But there was only one answer, that is, the time was not right.
Based on her unconditional trust in Huang Long, the Queen Mother of the West did not ask much, but just completed the task assigned by Huang Long seriously.
She transformed into thousands of incarnations, walked around the prehistoric places, felt the vitality of the earth, and spread the medical methods of plants and trees on the earth, gradually improving her reputation.
And now...
She found that the shackles that prevented her from becoming a saint disappeared, and she now met all the conditions for becoming a saint!
However, she did not show any abnormal behavior, but took Bai Mi and others to leave the fairy court and headed towards Guixu.
Guixu, Yunyin Taoist Temple.
After returning, Queen Mother of the West went straight to the pavilion, releasing the excitement she had suppressed all the way.
"Master, I..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw Huang Long waving his hand.
"Don't worry, the first thing you have to do now is to separate your own avenue from the heavenly way."
"This process is destined to be slow and will cause considerable damage to your Taoism, but it is a necessary process."
"When you separate your own avenue, then you will be truly free, and you can prove your Taoism and become a saint, but..."
Huang Long paused, shook his head and sighed, and Queen Mother of the West's heart was also hanging.
Is there any obstacle to proving your Taoism?
Thinking of this, the excitement on her face gradually turned into worry.
Looking at Queen Mother of the West's changing expression, Huang Long laughed and scolded.
"What are you thinking about? Since I have already taken action, I have naturally paved the way for you to become a saint."
"It is not a simple matter to let Hongjun end the cause and effect of preaching. It will not work without paying a price."
"Before the human way appears in the world, you cannot prove the way to become a saint."
"However, this is not a bad thing for you. Spend more time to hone your skills and leave more traces in the prehistoric land. It is also a good thing for you."
The Queen Mother of the West was overjoyed when she heard this. After sincerely thanking Huang Long, she smiled and left.
...
Time never stops.
Three thousand years passed in a flash.
Counting it, Xuanyuan has been the leader of the human race for more than 7,000 years.
As early as a thousand years ago, he completely defeated the Yanhuo tribe and the Yimu tribe.
These alien races either migrated their entire tribes away from the human territory and never dared to fight again.
Or they chose to surrender, follow Xuanyuan around, and become a subsidiary of the human race.
Or they were completely destroyed without leaving any trace.
Compared with the two races of witches and liches, the character of the human race is indeed gentle, but that is only relative.
In fact, which race that can have a place in the prehistoric world as an acquired race and dare to compete for the protagonist of heaven and earth is a good person?
Without courage and blood, how can such a thing be done? Even the human race is no exception.
They are gentle and polite to their compatriots, and they will not be merciful to their enemies.
In the prehistoric world, being soft to the enemy is cruel to oneself, which may ruin one's life and even lead to the extinction of the race.
It is naturally impossible for the human race to do such a stupid thing.
After destroying several powers and absorbing their luck, the luck of the human race increased significantly, which is a lot higher than before.
With the blessing of this luck, Xuanyuan achieved the Golden Immortal of Daluo and jumped out of the long river of fate.
The generals under his command also made breakthroughs. There were hundreds of Taiyi Jinxian alone, and thousands of Jinxian. With the addition of the collateral masters outside the Youxiong tribe, the number was even greater.
Chiyou was not far behind, and he quelled the rebellion in the southern territory decades earlier than Xuanyuan.
The Bai nationality, the Yuren tribe, the Sanshen tribe and other powerful tribes were all destroyed by the Jiuli army.
The army under Chiyou was powerful, and the 81 sworn brothers further explored the power of their blood under the baptism of human luck and war.
Now they have become able to become divine witches, and ordinary Taiyi Jinxian are no match for them.
Chi You even consumed some of the fragments of the ancestor witch's true spirit. Now he is a powerful witch with greatly increased strength and knowledge.
After solving the external troubles, the human race only has internal troubles. The two biggest and most obvious internal troubles are Xuanyuan and Chi You.
Both of them understand this, and they are all seizing the time to strengthen their strength and prepare for war.
Xuanyuan knows that his cultivation is not as good as Chi You. In order to improve his chances of winning, he began to practice the dual cultivation method under the guidance of Guangchengzi.
His understanding is amazing. On the basis of the innate dual cultivation method, he innovated and improved the acquired dual cultivation method that is more suitable for the human race, and took in concubines.
As the co-leader of the human race and the Golden Immortal of Daluo, Xuanyuan does not want any woman. The Chan Sect attaches great importance to origin and status, and emphasizes orthodoxy.
Under the guidance of Guangchengzi, Xuanyuan naturally inherited this point.
Only those who are blessed with luck, or the daughters of other human tribe leaders, and female cultivators with high cultivation, can catch his eye and marry him as his concubine.
Today, eight thousand years after Xuanyuan came to power, Chiyou and Xuanyuan exchanged letters of challenge and started a decisive battle in Zhuolu.
With the help of Fengbo and Yushi, a cloud and rain formation that could not distinguish the direction blocked the Xuanyuan army. Chiyou's army took the opportunity to attack and defeated the Xuanyuan army, winning the first battle.
A temporary victory or defeat will not have any impact on Xuanyuan.
He convened a meeting immediately to find a way to break the formation, created a compass car, and with the help of Yinglong, broke the wind and rain formation.
But in terms of real combat power, he is still no match for Chiyou.
Just when Xuanyuan was frowning, Jiutian Xuannv led a group of heavenly soldiers and generals to the front of Xuanyuan's camp.
Not only did she systematically teach Xuanyuan how to deploy troops, she also personally killed the thunder beast Kui Niu on Liubo Island in the East China Sea and made it into a drum.
When the drum sounded, it became thunder, boosting the morale of the Xuanyuan army.
Under the command of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman, the Xuanyuan army was unstoppable, breaking through several large formations of Chi You, winning battles again and again, with remarkable results, and reversing the previous decline in one fell swoop.
…
Jiuli Alliance, in the tribal hall
“Xuanyuan is lucky. I didn’t expect that the Heavenly Court would dare to intervene in the battle for the emperor of the human.”
Chi You nodded. Although he was annoyed by several defeats, he was not panicked, let alone afraid.
After refining some fragments of the true spirit of the ancestor witch, he knew a lot of the secrets of the witch clan, and his strength was needless to say.
Long before delivering the letter of war, he had prepared a killer.
Since Xuanyuan has the help of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, then use the killer weapon in advance, fight quickly and end the battle in advance.
In order to avoid more troubles at night, who will help Xuanyuan?
So, in the confrontation a few days later, Chi You led 81 sworn brothers and set up a peerless formation with 12 divine banners as the center.
When the formation was completed, the monstrous evil spirit rushed up to the sky, and the turbid air of the endless earth continued to pour out, and the whole Zhulu was shrouded by a majestic pressure.
Even before entering the formation, the Daluo Jinxian felt a great pressure, and the Taiyi Jinxian was even more frightened.
Feng Bo Yu Shi's eyes were excited, and the Wu clan formation reappeared in the world again. Although it was only simplified, it was also the Wu clan formation!
They looked at each other, stepped into the formation, and presided over the formation with Chi You, which made the power of the formation suddenly increase.
It was like an ancient beast, waking up from a deep sleep, looking up to the sky and howling, overlooking the world.
Not to mention the Xuanyuan army, even many ancient powerful beings were aware of this aura and turned their attention to Zhuolu.
