At the beginning of the separation of the three realms, the great god Pangu created the heaven and the earth. The pure air rose to become the sky, and the turbid air sank to become the earth. At that time, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was scattered throughout the three realms. There was no distinction between immortals and mortals, and no separation between humans and ghosts.
Among them, there are Fuxi, Shennong, Nuwa, as well as countless great gods such as Chiyou, Xingtian, Kuafu, Houyi, etc., who appeared in the Three Realms one after another, giving the Three Realms their original appearance.
However, the Three Realms have developed like this for countless years, and disputes have continued. The Three Realms are still in chaos, and there is even a trend of intensifying, until the leader Hongjun is born, follows the way of heaven, and establishes the Heavenly Court.
Following the way of heaven here refers to the natural upward flow of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, he sets a threshold for those with powerful abilities in the world, and gathers the innate immortals on the nine heavens, so that the immortals are forever separated.
However, there are still people who practice Tao in the mortal world. Whether they are trying to understand the origin of Tao or wanting to strengthen themselves, strong men continue to appear, and they still have a real impact on the existing order of the three realms.
The more representative one is Li Tianwang’s family.
Then the rising channel will become extremely important.
Leader Hongjun set up two channels for the mortal world to ascend to immortality.
One is formed by cultivating orthodox Taoism and needs to go through three disasters and nine tribulations. Only those who succeed can be ranked in the immortal class. The other is those who use the divine whip to destroy the physical body, or those who have great influence and outstanding achievements in the human world, use their spiritual bodies. The way is God.
It's just that he probably didn't expect that there would be a third kind of person in this world, but this method is obviously countless times more difficult than the other two. Therefore, in the countless years of existence in heaven, those who have become saints in the flesh are also rare. exist.
But no matter what the threshold for becoming an immortal is, it means that Taoist Hongjun wants to completely separate the immortals and not affect each other, at least within a certain range.
It was at that time that Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Cult Master began to select their disciples or successors.
The two have fundamentally different understandings of Tao, which leads to great differences in their selection methods.
But no matter what, the general direction or the general principle that those with strong abilities ascend to heaven and become immortals has never changed.
And this project that has been running for thousands or even tens of thousands of years has a very appropriate name, it is called Jedi Tiantong.
However, as time goes by, the Three Realms gradually evolve into something unexpected.
The aura of heaven and earth in the mortal world is indeed decreasing at an irreversible rate, but there are still many beings who have successfully cultivated. These beings are neither powerful enough to become immortals, nor have they missed out or are not satisfied with being struck by the divine whip. Spread into God's requirements.
So even though we see that many disputes in the mortal world have been eliminated now, people's minds are agitated. Under this background of the environment, the rules set by mortals are actually sliding more and more towards the abyss.
Among them there is moral decay, there is decay of all dharma, there are filthy and stinky men...
So the rulers of Heaven, including Yuanshi Tianzun, Jade Emperor, and Ziwei Emperor, thought of a way when Taoist Hongjun disappeared.
That is to say, a real earth-jue-tiantong.
To accomplish this, they need to complete at least three main tasks. The first is to reduce the number of people with great abilities in the mortal world as much as possible, regardless of whether these people really have the potential to become immortals.
There are monsters, ghosts, humans, demons, spirits, monsters, and so on among these people.
What they want to do is to make these powerful people completely lose their ability to exert influence on the human world. There are many mountain gods and lands worshiped by ordinary people, but it makes no difference to them.
These people are the army of Sanxian led by Li Jing.
The second main task is to reduce the number of gods in heaven. This is obviously more difficult to do than the first thing, but as long as the number of gods in heaven decreases, the possible impact on the human world will be weaker, especially those who Not to mention the lack of rules and restraints, the gods of Jiejiao seem to have no psychological burden on exerting influence on the human world, so naturally it is a top priority.
And this matter is obviously just like the matter on the Conferred Gods List, it cannot be known by the Tongtian Cult Leader, otherwise there will be another Immortal Killing Formation,
Then the three realms are in danger.
The third important task is to keep Heaven away from the mortal world more completely. Only by keeping Heaven away can the two completely stop interfering with each other, because the auras of heaven and earth are infiltrated with each other precisely because Heaven is still too close to the mortal world. .
There are naturally countless other tasks derived from these three main tasks, and there must always be a plan.
But let’s start with the hardest one.
So Emperor Ziwei and the Jade Emperor performed a big show, which not only greatly consumed the number of gods in heaven, but also kept heaven away from the mortal world.
Yes, in fact, the energy that pushes Heaven away from the mortal world is provided by the losses of battles and even deaths on both sides.
This is just one aspect, in fact they do much more than that.
For example, it is necessary to keep the orderly rotation of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, to ensure that systematic chaos does not occur within a certain range in Heaven, and to ensure that Buddhism does not take advantage of the situation.
The rest is to improvise and improvise.
Initially, they did quite well, and Emperor Ziwei even made effective use of the extraterritorial demons in his team to successfully complete the transition of power.
With Buddhism as a potential enemy, no one would turn their suspicious eyes on the Jade Emperor.
It's just that neither Emperor Ziwei nor the Jade Emperor could have imagined that everyone in the team would become a variable in this matter.
The next development can be considered smooth, but the Buddhist side can't see the real intention.
Next is the punishment of the heavenly court on the loose immortals in the mortal world.
Everyone in the team played a very key role here, and even contributed to their goals.
When the army of Sanxian Immortals is about to attack Heavenly Court, and even brings the Four Seas Tribe with it, it will undoubtedly make their plan take a big step forward.
At this time, for the Jade Emperor and Ziwei, the victory or defeat between the two sides is no longer important. Whether the army of scattered immortals is annihilated or they completely take over the heaven, their goals will be achieved.
Many things that everyone in the team could not understand before, such as why Emperor Ziwei chose not to defend the Heavenly Prison, and why the four originally impregnable Heavenly Gates did not offer much resistance, actually all made sense.
From the perspective of Emperor Ziwei, this was very reasonable, until the second variable in this matter was introduced - Dou Bu.
Doubu's fate not only forced Emperor Ziwei to continue to speed up the pace of Dijue Tiantong, but also had to temporarily put aside his previous vigilance against Buddhism.
The composition of Doubu is very complex, and there are many factors that influence the 330,000 evil stars and evil spirits. However, there is no doubt that most of them are disciples of Jiejiao. Therefore, Emperor Ziwei has never truly trusted them, and even The truth of the matter was not revealed to Lord Doumu Yuan.
The timing of Doubu's uprising was so good that as long as they united together, they could completely capture the Heavenly Court, and all the plans of Emperor Ziwei, the Jade Emperor and even Yuanshi Tianzun were in vain.
There is only one person who can accurately seize this opportunity and have the ability to influence Doube at once.
The leader of Tongtian.
However, it is obvious that the leader of Tongtian Cult has a grand plan, and it is not just as simple as occupying the heaven or even controlling the three realms.
He wanted to use this to thoroughly practice his understanding of Tao, or at least prove that he was right.
At best, by doing this, he can turn the Three Realms into a wonderful scene where the world is unified and all living beings are equal; at worst, the Three Realms may return to a state of chaos and strife. So the efforts that countless people have made for the peace of the Three Realms, I'm afraid they will all be destroyed in one day.
At this point in the story, the Jade Emperor made a stroke.
A transparent light curtain appeared in the sky, and the scene slowly emerged from it.
It was a purgatory-like scene, with countless people fighting in the picture. The scale of this battle was not far behind the battle between the heavenly soldiers and the scattered immortals outside the Lingxiao Palace.
Naturally, it is more brutal and bloody than the battle in heaven.
Countless people died at the same time, and then countless people rejoined the battlefield. Both sides seemed to be tireless, just rushing forward,
And then until death.
The fall of the gods is also irreversible and they will enter the six paths of reincarnation, so they can clearly see the heavenly soldiers who have fought with the army of loose immortals, and even the loose immortals, appearing in one of the battle formations.
"The threshold of the underworld is not high, but the eaves are extremely low, so neither you nor I can enter." The Jade Emperor said softly to Lord Doumu Yuanjun.
Maintaining this Taoist method obviously cost the Jade Emperor a lot. He waved his hand, and the light curtain in front of him disappeared.
"Jade Emperor, who are those people opposite?" Qi Zhen suddenly asked.
"I don't know what method the leader used. Those are the extraterrestrial demons he released in a place with extremely heavy Yin energy." Jade Emperor said.
No one noticed that Qi Zhen's eyes were already extremely shocked.
In fact, this was the most rude moment since he entered this game, and he didn't even pay attention to the content of their next conversation.
But in these three sentences, the Jade Emperor seemed to reveal another part of the truth to everyone.
Why was the Ministry of Plague obviously lurking in the palace complex, but did not ambush outside the palace, but instead launched a sneak attack in the palace complex? Why did Emperor Zhenwu and Deputy Commander Tianyou not choose to complete their victory in one battle but chose to admit defeat and retreat, leaving Ling Xiao behind? The treasure palace gave way.
Because this place is not the focus of the entire war, but the underworld is.
No matter how many people die in Heaven, there are only two results. One is that the energy generated by these battles will become nourishment and continue to push Heaven away from the mortal world. The other is that the souls of the dead will go to the underworld and become soldiers to continue fighting against the demons outside the territory. fighting.
And the leader of Tongtian Church obviously thinks the same way.
The living evil stars occupy heaven, and the dead evil spirits rule the underworld!
