"If it's an acquired life, that's fine. If it's a congenital life, then the fun will be great."
Shen Gongbao pondered deeply and explored various possibilities.
Since the beginning of the world, two kinds of creatures have been born in the universe, one is the innate gods born according to the laws of the great road, and the other is the acquired creatures born from the enlightenment of all things.
Although there is a gap in strength, their personalities are equal, unlike the talents of the races in the secondary universe, which are locked by the Creator from the source and are difficult to surpass.
The innate beings are naturally powerful, stable and stubborn, while the acquired beings are good at things and have ever-changing wisdom.
Two different postures exist in the universe, rising in cycles amid contradictions and struggles.
The battle between nature and nurture has been destined to exist since the beginning of the universe. This is the main theme of our universe.
So Heaven was born, for stability and order.
The Lotus Lantern universe is destined to have a heavenly court, or divine court, or fairy court, in short, a similar organization exists, carrying the intersection of all tributaries.
If Yang Jian was an acquired soul, he could at most experience the plot of rebelling against Heaven in advance and temper his character.
What if Yang Jian became an innate god and blended into the heaven.
So, who will be the protagonist?
There is destined to be a Lich King, there is destined to be a heaven, there is destined to be a villain who represents the gods, and there is destined to be a protagonist who represents the creatures of tomorrow.
Looking at the destined result in the long river of time, Shen Gongbao suddenly raised a smile on his lips and said: "Why do I think so much? If the sky falls, Yuanshi Tianzun will naturally hold it up."
"This time, I am not the protagonist who works hard, but the mastermind behind the scenes, the villain."
"I just need to play my role well, act as the Golden Emperor, and leave behind the legend of disaster."
"The calamity star and the bad god show up in their true colors..."
At this thought, Shen Gongbao smiled indifferently and fled towards the center of the earth, the Zhoushan Mountain that towered above the sky and the earth.
Having crossed countless mountains and rivers, the tiny sky pillar became larger and larger, becoming more and more magnificent, like a majestic giant, like a giant tower reaching the sky, standing tall against the sky and the earth.
The blue sky and white clouds complement each other under the endless sky, like a picture of the connection between heaven and earth. It is connected to the boundless star world and the main vein of the earth below. It is the well-deserved center of the world.
"Fellow Golden Emperor!"
The deep and majestic voice sounded, and Shen Gongbao looked around. He saw a god with red flames like the sun, whose brilliance spread across the sky, standing on the mountain peak, spreading his own light and heat, illuminating the earth.
"Red Emperor!"
Shen Gongbao's eyes wandered, examining the Lord of the South, looking for clues to test whether he was a real innate god, or whether he was an actor like himself.
"Golden Emperor, you are late, you are the last one." Red Emperor said calmly, pointing to the top of Zhoushan Mountain: "Black Lord, Huang Laojun, and Qingzun are all waiting for you."
"The road to the west is far away. I traveled a long distance, so I arrived late." Shen Gongbao apologized: "I also ask for your forgiveness, four fellow Taoists."
"Please come up, fellow Daoist Jinhuang."
On the top of Zhoushan Mountain, Qing Zun stretched out his hand and pointed, the light flowed, the green energy was vigorous, and a sky-reaching tree turned into a bridge to guide him, penetrating the boundary between heaven and earth.
"Tao friendly magical power."
Shen Gongbao exclaimed in admiration. Without any hesitation or fear, he stepped onto the building calmly. Following the force of his eyes, he reached the top of the mountain in an instant.
Under the starry sky, the gods from the five directions gathered together, carrying a flourishing atmosphere.
"Golden Emperor, it would be too arrogant to ask us to wait for you."
The Northern Black Lord sneered, with a hint of provocation in his voice.
A dark and turbulent divine power is overwhelming, like the sky hanging upside down, pouring in, and like the roar of the ocean, submerging all living things in the endless waves.
"I, the Golden Emperor, have done my best throughout my life, so why should I explain it to you?"
Shen Gongbao slightly pushed the imperial crown on his head, and white clouds emerged, holding up the power of heaven and earth. They were endless and vast, but they cut through the huge waves like an immortal golden sword, as bright as the Milky Way.
Metal can generate water, and if there is too much water, metal will sink; if metal is strong enough to get water, its edge will be blunted.
Although the Northern Black Lord's divine power is extremely powerful and is comparable to the power of a divine king, the natural divine power comes too easily, and he does not master the subtleties. His control of the Tao is not even as good as that of an earthly immortal.
Shen Gongbao took the opportunity to follow the trend and used his strength to neutralize the temptations of the Northern Black Lord, and even gave him a lot of counterattacks.
"What a good idea!"
The Northern Black Lord looked gloomy, suppressing the surging anger in his heart, and used his divine power to repair the power of Jin Ge that wreaked havoc in the god's body.
Shen Gongbao chuckled, seemingly sarcastic, but in his heart he listed the Northern Black Lord as a suspect.
When the Baolian Lantern World was founded, after all the Yuxu Immortal Family assisted in the creation of the world, they would only leave projections to stabilize their own anchors, which was not a big problem.
The only ones who truly entered the Lotus Lantern universe are probably Yang Jian, the rebuilt Yuding Master, and Jiang Ziya.
Of course, Yun Zhongzi and the Antarctic Emperor cannot be ruled out. After all, judging from their performance, they are also people who enjoy teaching, and it is not a big deal to watch the excitement.
Especially the Antarctic Emperor seems to be thinking about Yuanshi Tianzun's sky-opening ax.
However, no matter who it is, no matter what the purpose is, they will never be as reckless as the Northern Black Lord.
"Unless the Black Lord is pretending?"
"Is this possible?!"
Shen Gongbao glanced at the Northern Black Lord and began to figure it out in his mind.
Could it be said that this dark master's acting skills are better than his?
"Two Taoist friends, harmony is the most important thing in everything."
Huang Laojun spoke slowly. His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, which seemed to calm people's minds. His eyes revealed a kind of wisdom. The divine power of the earth slowly flowed in his hands, exuding a powerful aura, like the pulse of heaven and earth. As time goes by, all wounds heal.
Shen Gongbao's eyes narrowed, and from a clear perspective, Huang Laojun was superior to the Black Lord.
"We are here to discuss matters, not to fight."
Qing Zun whispered softly, and countless fairy flowers and divine lotuses appeared in the sky, blooming with dazzling brilliance, like thousands of pearls inlaid on the earth, and the breeze blew by, blowing away the murderous aura.
The Northern Black Lord looked a little ugly. It was okay for the Golden Emperor to beat him with his weird magical powers. Huang Laojun's magical power was almost the best among the five gods.
Now even Qing Zun is vaguely overpowering him.
"Yes, yes, we are of the same race and are innate gods. We should be more harmonious."
The Red Emperor of the South smiled slightly, his red-glazed eyes extremely bright. He stretched out his hands, emitting blazing light like the sun, dispelling the surrounding darkness and evaporating the water vapor.
Shen Gongbao nodded. It seemed that the Red Emperor was also above the Black Lord.
When the Northern Black Master saw this, his eyes narrowed and he did not appreciate it. Instead, he snorted coldly: "Red Emperor, fire and water are ruthless, you don't need to take action."
Shen Gongbao was speechless for a moment. Looking at the angry and angry Northern Black Lord, he immediately shook his head. It seemed that he was worrying too much.
Although it is said that great treachery is like loyalty and great wisdom is like foolishness, there must always be a sense of propriety.
The black master obviously does not have this sense of propriety.
This is a serious innate god, influenced by the laws of the great road, and has a truly innocent heart.
"The Black Master is an honest man."
When Shen Gongbao thought of this, he immediately thought about it, showed a smile, stood up and apologized: "Friend Black Lord, we are all innate gods. I have offended many people just now. Please forgive me."
The Northern Black Lord was stunned. He didn't expect that the arrogant Golden Emperor would actually apologize to him. He originally wanted to find a way to come down, but he never gave in and could only snort coldly: "Forget what happened just now. , if you offend again, I will not forgive you."
Shen Gongbao smiled and said nothing. He suddenly felt that compared to the three-year-old Yang Jian, the northern black master was more like a child.
That's right. He was born from the innate spirit, and his age is measured by the changes in the universe. Billions of years are one year old, and his temperament is unpredictable. He is just a naughty child.
Other innate gods may need coercion and inducement. To deal with the black master in the north, you only need to say some nice words or sow discord, and you can make him a knife in your hand.
No wonder Huang Laojun, Qing Zun, and Red Emperor, these three guys who can't figure out the details, can accommodate the Northern Black Lord.
"Now that the five gods have gathered together."
"Then let's discuss the establishment of heaven."
Huang Laojun coughed lightly and said solemnly: "I think all the gods have already seen the scene of the heavenly palace standing in the mother river of time."
"This is destiny and cannot be stopped!"
"We, the gods, were born in accordance with the laws of the Great Dao. We should obey Heaven's orders and act in accordance with the Dao."
"Not bad." The Northern Black Lord stood up excitedly and was the first to reconsider.
"Good." Red Emperor and Qing Zun also nodded. It was for this matter that they rushed to Zhoushan.
Because above Mount Zhou is the star realm, the heaven. This sacred mountain connects heaven and earth and is the place that connects the sky.
"I have no opinion."
Shen Gongbao echoed, looking at Huang Laojun's clothes, which had some Taoist charm, and the way he spoke, how to express his emotions.
Destiny, way of heaven, number of days? !
No one understands destiny and interprets the number of days better than I explain.
After a pause, Shen Gongbao then asked: "It is true that the establishment of heaven is a general trend, but are it just the five of us? Other innate gods?"
At the beginning of the world, there were innate ancestral energy flying and flourishing, and there were many innate gods. Even if the mother of the avenue had difficulty in giving birth and gave birth late, there would still be more than five innate gods at this time point.
The Northern Black Lord immediately sneered and said: "Golden Emperor, although you defeated me, you did not do it in an honest and fair way. This shows that the Taoist heart may not be clear."
"What do you mean by means that are not fair and aboveboard? That means the five elements are mutually reinforcing each other, and it is the orthodox way of heaven and earth, okay? You, my father-in-law."
Shen Gongbao cursed secretly, but felt awe-struck in his heart, because what the Northern Black Lord said next was a bit unexpected.
I saw the Northern Black Lord speaking impassionedly and with high spirits: "We, the innate gods, act as if they are as bright as the sun and the moon. How can we sneak around and bow our heads, hide in the darkness, act in conspiracy, and be charming in order to seize the universe?" !”
"Only by standing up can we stand. Those gods who hide behind the scenes, let them stay behind the scenes forever!"
Huang Laojun nodded approvingly and said: "What the Black Lord said is true. Only by standing up can we lead the universe, lead the banner of the gods, and establish the heaven."
"Excellent." Chidi laughed and said, "Those who want to establish a heaven must have great luck, great reputation, and great achievements. If they don't do it, they will never be able to establish a heaven."
"However." Qing Zun agreed: "All living beings fear the sun and the moon, not the stars. The first thing that living beings see is the big tree in the sky, not the fireweed under the tree."
Shen Gongbao was slightly in a daze and couldn't help but sigh: "Me too."
The principle of everything is the same. It is natural to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, but if you pretend to be a pig for a long time, it is easy to really become a pig.
Even if you can't react afterwards and want to take off the pig skin and become a tiger again, will heaven allow it? Will the five gods who have just formed an alliance allow it?
The five tigers who are the first to form an alliance will eat up all the tigers dressed as pigs in the world.
Because they stood up, established the first heavenly court, and took the lead.
Just like a chessboard, one step comes first, each step comes first, like a snowball getting bigger and bigger, making it irresistible for latecomers.
Words are powerful. Under the watchful eye of God, the five gods formed a contract, climbed to the top of Zhoushan Mountain, opened the door to heaven, established the first heaven in the universe, received great luck, and took the first step to dominate the three realms. .
Other innate gods wanted to intervene, but it was too late and they could only become vassals of the five god kings.
The gods from the five directions occupied the heaven and thus ruled the human world. Their power expanded step by step and they made their own contributions.
For example, after Shen Gongbao occupied Kunlun in the west, he recovered many races on the earth and allowed them to avoid celestial disasters, thus establishing his status as the God of Disaster.
This was just the first step. Then Shen Gongbao promulgated the first law of his universe, which stipulated the general direction and scope, determined the status of living beings, demigods, innate gods, and the five emperors, further expanding the majesty and authority.
Divine law stipulates that the Five Emperors rule the world and are above all the gods.
Those who hurt the innate gods without any reason will die, and those who slaughter the creatures without any reason will be sentenced to imprisonment, confinement, bone cutting, beheading, annihilation... and other punishments.
The regulations of this divine law seem to be unfair to all living beings and seem to favor the gods.
However, in this primitive and savage universe where the world was first opened, the innate gods acted arbitrarily and without restraint. Not to mention killing all living beings, even destroying millions of races was reasonable, unfettered and unpunished.
The seemingly unfair punishment of divine law actually puts chains on the innate god.
Compared with the absence of law, divine law is a progressive existence.
Of course, the promulgation of this divine law immediately aroused the resentment of the Innate God. I originally killed whoever I wanted to kill. Races and tribes are the private property of the Innate God, and blood sacrifices can be performed anytime and anywhere.
Now you want to turn my wealth into a slave with a little bit of human rights. How is it possible? It is absolutely not allowed.
So under the instigation of some ambitious people, the innate gods gathered in a mighty force and attacked the five heavens to overthrow the rule of the five emperors.
Faced with the innate gods whose Taoism was so crude and unsophisticated that it was difficult to see, Shen Gongbao, who was born in the true teaching of Chanjiao, attacked like fried fish and killed the gods like chopping melons and vegetables, sweeping through the army of innate gods.
Cutting off the heads of nine innate gods, he established his godhood of Tianzhizhi.
And further sublimated the divine law, imprinted it in the depths of the avenue, and upgraded it to the law of heaven and earth.
