It only took about four months after Fang Jian returned to Heaven from the Wa Palace, and he received hundreds of reports about the evil god from the central government.
Heaven also sent heavenly soldiers and generals to conquer everywhere, and Fang Jian spread the three key points of dealing with evil gods mentioned by Nuwa to the three realms in the form of heavenly edicts.
But it is difficult to detect things like evil gods when beings secretly offer sacrifices. It is impossible for heaven to search for evil gods from house to house, right? This kind of behavior is not only unreliable, but also impossible to do.
So during this month, Fang Jian has been studying how to deal with the evil gods in the situation at hand. Ever since he met Taishang Laojun and Nuwa, Fang Jian understood that it was inevitable for the evil gods to be rampant in the three worlds.
In the courtyard, Yu Luan looked at Fang Jian, who was frowning, and asked while making tea: "Can I make some suggestions?"
Fang Jian came back to his senses and looked at Yu Luan, then smiled and said: "Of course."
Yuluan brought the tea cup to Fang Jian, and then said: "Now the four emperors of Lingxiao are in charge of the affairs of the heaven. The Shenxiao Yufu is in charge of the government affairs of the heaven and the affairs of the immortal officials. The Shenlei Yufu is in charge of the disasters and blessings of the heaven. , holding the balance of things, controlling things and people, punishing and punishing by heaven, and killing by ministers. Lingshu Jade Mansion and Tianshu Province, conquests and suppressions, heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals, and all other affairs. Right?"
"Yes." Fang Jian nodded.
Yu Luan said with a smile: "Then it's obvious. In fact, the specific affairs of Heaven are already in charge of the other three emperors. You are the head of the four emperors of Lingxiao and are in charge of the 'general affairs' of Heaven. To put it bluntly, although you have great authority now, It's heavy, but it's actually very leisurely. The three emperors and the people below have clear responsibilities, and you no longer need to do everything."
Fang Jian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he reacted. After a moment of silence, he said, "You are right. Now some people say that I have overstepped my authority."
"So." Yu Luan said: "This evil god matter must be presided over by you personally. Firstly, the four emperors of Lingxiao do not have a Daluo Jinxian, and you are the only one with the strength of Daluo Jinxian. Secondly, You are personally responsible for eradicating the evil god of chaos, and you can better mobilize the power of heaven and the three realms, which is an advantage that others do not have."
Yu Luan then said: "Of course, there is another biggest advantage of this, that is, once you have to go down the hierarchy, the people below will not be able to say anything."
Fang Jian's eyes lit up when he heard this. This is the problem he is facing now. Although he has great authority now, if he really wants to take care of everything, the people below will definitely be dissatisfied.
First of all, you, Heavenly Court, appointed me to this position, and you, Emperor Hongqing, still supervise micro management every day, so why not remove me and take this position yourself?
Not to mention those little gods and immortals, even an emperor like Emperor Fengdu will be dissatisfied. You, Emperor Hongqing, always overstep your authority. I, Emperor Fengdu, am just a decoration. Or do you mean you don't take me seriously at all?
Of course we will obey the reform of the Heavenly Court. When you, Emperor Hongqing, issue an edict, we will definitely obey the order and reform, but the specific affairs are always done by us, right?
"Moreover," Yu Luan glanced at Fang Jian, hesitated, and said, "With your current status, it is really not convenient and unreasonable to go down to the next level."
When Fang Jian heard Yu Luan say the same thing, he immediately said, "I'm just worried. You know what's most important in my heart."
"The Law of Heaven." Yuluan smiled and said, "The Law of Heaven is the most important thing in your heart, I know that."
"But." Yu Luan changed the topic and said: "You might as well think about it, how did Emperor Juntian manage Taixuan Capital Province back then? Did Emperor Juntian interfere with your actions back then?"
Fang Jian was startled again when he heard this, then after thinking about it carefully, he shook his head and said, "No."
Yu Luan nodded and said with a smile: "So, although you are the leader of the four emperors of Lingxiao, you have not found your position yet. It seems that in your current position, what you have to do is not to do specific affairs, but to take charge of the overall situation. The land god looks at his own territory, the mountain god looks at the mountain range where he is, the water god looks at the rivers in his territory, and the Fengdu Emperor looks at the underworld. What about you? Fang Jian, where should you look?"
Fang Jian picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then raised his eyes slightly and said slowly: "Three Realms."
Now Fang Jian understands why Empress Nuwa said that she did not understand "Tao follows nature". "Tao follows nature" means not just Tao, nor just Dharma, nor the "Tao method" of cultivation.
'Tao follows nature' is the natural law and law of the operation of all things under the way of heaven!
It was at this moment that Fang Jian had a real enlightenment, and he suddenly realized that he had always been obsessed with the 'law of heaven' itself, but he had just ignored that heaven was not a dynasty on earth, but a super power that ruled the three realms.
What is the law of heaven? Is it a man-imposed law? No, the law of heaven should also follow the principle of "Tao follows nature".
All living beings are subject to birth, old age, sickness and death, misfortunes and blessings. This is the law of nature and the law of heaven. If someone reverses this law, it is a violation of the law of heaven.
What about the gods? Immortal gods, what are their natural laws and laws?
At this moment, Fang Jian deeply felt that there were still huge shortcomings in his realm, so much so that for the first time, he had the feeling of "morality is not worthy".
In the past, Fang Jian was very proud. He believed that he had the strength and ability to serve as the leader of the Four Emperors of Lingxiao. However, now Fang Jian felt that he was not even qualified to be the 'Emperor'.
Is the realm of Emperor Fengdu lower than him? It's definitely impossible. Which of these emperors who followed the Jade Emperor to the present day from hundreds of millions of years ago is an ordinary person?
Fang Jian's current position depends on nothing more than a few good magic weapons. If he gives these magic weapons to others, others can do what he has done, and they may do even better than him.
Thinking of this, Fang Jian felt like waking up from a dream at this moment, sweating profusely and looking pale.
A wisp of fragrance reached the tip of his nose, and Fang Jian turned his head to look in ecstasy, only to see Yuluan wiping the cold sweat on his face with a strip of Sujuan.
Fang Jian calmed down for a moment, then smiled slightly and said: "I have been enlightened for the first time in the hundreds of years since I have been a Taoist. No wonder Buddhists say that 'directly pointing to the human heart, enlightenment becomes a Buddha', this is true."
Upon hearing this, Yu Luan looked at him with a smile and said, "Then have you become a Buddha?"
Fang Jian said with a smile: "I'm afraid that Buddhism won't dare to accept me."
Yu Luan covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I'm afraid you might overturn the spiritual mountain."
"You can't say for sure." Fang Jian smiled.
Although he broke out in a cold sweat, the light in Fang Jian's eyes became even brighter after the epiphany. Epiphany means reflecting on the past and seeing through the future. More importantly, it points directly to the true heart and can defeat oneself.
Yu Luan saw Fang Jian's bright eyes and knew that he had figured it out, and his face was filled with joy.
Fang Jian stood up and used his magic power to remove the sweat stains and dirt on his body. Then he looked at the vast array of fairy flowers in the courtyard and smiled at Yu Luan and said, "The beautiful flowers are just in time to be appreciated."
Northwest Youtian, Youtian world.
The fairy mountain is bright and colorful, and a huge palace is located in this mountain range called "Tianhu Mountain".
However, at this moment, countless monsters of unknown origin are besieging this mountain.
These monsters have different shapes, but without exception, these monsters seem to have been strengthened in some way. They are not only powerful, but also extremely ferocious.
Those who were fighting these monsters were heavenly soldiers wearing golden helmets and armor, forming battle formations, and holding various magical weapons.
Nezha took the lead and was leading dozens of heavenly generals to kill these monster beasts. However, these monster beasts continued like a tide. At a glance, the endless sky and the land were all filled with monster beasts.
'Boom'
The Nine Dragon Divine Fire Shield suddenly fell, directly killing thousands of monsters, and a huge gap suddenly appeared in the group of monsters.
However, the gap was then filled by the monster beasts that came up from behind. Fire-tip spears, Hundian Ling, and Qiankun Circles were flying everywhere. Fairy lights were everywhere in their path, and the monster beasts were killed.
But it's no use! The waves of monsters come one after another, with no end in sight.
There were monsters everywhere in the sky and on the ground, and it was impossible to kill them all. Nezha used Huntian Ling to clear out the sky within a hundred feet around him, and then summoned the giant spirit god.
"Can Tianhu Mountain still be defended?" Nezha asked the Giant Spirit God.
The giant spirit said: "Back to Emperor Taiyi, the heavenly soldiers have suffered heavy casualties. The best way is to retreat."
Nezha frowned, looking at the heavenly soldiers and generals below who were fighting with monsters and beasts, and cursed: "Damn, where did these ghosts come from? Why are there so many?!"
At this time, a spiritual official flew up and reported to Nezha: "To Emperor Taiyi, these monsters are not afraid of death. The defensive array we have set up cannot hold it at all. We only need these monsters like a tide." It will collapse after three waves.”
Nezha immediately glanced downwards and found that all the defensive formations set up inside and outside Tianhu Mountain had been destroyed. The heavenly soldiers were engaged in a fierce close-quarters fight with the monsters. The battle was extremely tragic.
At this time, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the heavenly soldiers below are trying their best to maintain the front line, but if this continues, the front line will be overwhelmed sooner or later, and at that time, there will be no chance to retreat.
Nezha made a decision immediately, "Giant Spirit God, Li Lingguan, please pass on my decree immediately. The army abandons Tianhu Mountain and retreats from the northwest toward Yuling Gate immediately!"
Upon hearing this, Ju Ling Shen and Li Lingguan immediately raised their hands and said, "I will obey the law."
Just as Nezha's decree to retreat was conveyed, and the heavenly soldiers and generals were resisting the monsters and organizing a retreat, four or five loud roars suddenly came from the eastern sky of Tianhu Mountain, and then the entire sky turned blood red.
At the same time, an extremely powerful and terrifying coercion came over Tianhu Mountain, and Nezha's face changed drastically, "No, it's the power of Zhengdao Taiyi Golden Immortal! A demonic beast of Zhengdao Taiyi Golden Immortal level is coming, and There’s more than one!”
