"The key to measuring the calamity this time is not the place on the list of gods?"
Leader Tongtian and Saint Nuwa looked at each other and looked at Jiang Heng in disbelief. This was something they had never thought of.
Looking at the several calamities in the ancient world, it is actually not difficult to find some patterns from these calamities.
The Long-Han calamity seems to be a struggle for hegemony between the three clans of dragon, phoenix and unicorn, but in fact it is a struggle for sainthood between the Taoist ancestor Hongjun and the demon ancestor Luohu.
The calamity of the Lich was much simpler. It was a terrifying war that swept the entire world in order to dominate the world.
The Conferring Gods Calamity took the great prosperity of the Heavenly Court as the general trend of the Heavenly Way, and signed the Conferred Gods List, in order to make the Heavenly Court successfully become the master of the prehistoric world.
As for the journey to the west to measure the tribulation, it is to promote the rise of Western religion and spread Buddhism eastward, which has the hidden purpose of controlling human thoughts.
It can be seen that in every calamity, there will be a distinct protagonist, such as the three tribes of dragon, phoenix and unicorn, and the two tribes of lich.
But at this time, seeing the calamity of heaven and earth approaching, the saints don't even know where this calamity should be.
After Daozu Hongjun summoned the saints to Zixiao Palace and told them about re-signing the list of gods, the saints had some clues.
At this time, I am afraid that in the hearts of all the saints, the reason for this calamity should still be the great prosperity of heaven as the fundamental purpose.
Although today's prehistoric world has gone through several calamities, the power of living beings is constantly growing.
After all, from the Lich Calamity Tribulation, although there were the Conferring God Calamity Calamity and the Journey to the West Calamity Calamity, the large-scale death of living beings has never happened again.
The power of living beings is getting stronger and stronger, and the burden on the entire world is naturally getting bigger and bigger.
This can actually be seen from the fact that the vitality of heaven and earth is getting thinner and the era of Dharma End is coming.
It has become necessary to reduce the power of living things within a certain range to maintain the sustainable development of the ancient world.
Jiang Heng actually knew this idea. But it is precisely because of this that the terrifying aspects of Dao Zu Hongjun and Tiandao can be shown.
Because this kind of thought is what Taoist Hongjun has been instilling into the saints and the creatures in the ancient world for countless years.
Regarding this idea, even Saint Nuwa and Master Tongtian have no doubts at all, and it has even become a consensus.
But Jiang Heng has long understood that this kind of thinking is simply wrong, and the so-called sustainable development is nothing more than a scam.
From the fact that Jiang Heng refined the energy of chaos this time to solve the problem of the increasing lack of vitality in the world, we can actually tell something about it.
The stronger the power of a living being, the more vitality it absorbs from the world, and the greater the burden it places on the entire prehistoric world.
There is nothing wrong with this statement in itself. What is problematic is whether there is a limit to the prehistoric world, and where the limit is.
In Jiang Heng's view, today's prehistoric times are far from reaching their limits. Not to mention some immortals, even saints can be conceived.
Moreover, even if the prehistoric world reaches its limit, continuing to open up the Sea of Chaos and expand the prehistoric world is not a solution.
Why must the power of the creatures in the prehistoric world be reduced? Is this intentional by Daozu Hongjun and Tiandao, or are there other reasons?
"During this calamity, a new creature should become enlightened and achieve the status of a saint. You all already know this.
Compared to becoming a saint, what does a place on the list of gods mean? Could it be that Daozu Hongjun didn't know about this? Jiang Heng said with a smile.
During this calamity, new creatures will become saints. Saint Nuwa and the leader of Tongtian have known about this for a long time.
For this reason, Saint Nuwa did not hesitate to risk falling out with Taoist Hongjun, but she also wanted to stand by Jiang Heng's side.
During the calamity of Journey to the West, Saint Nuwa worked together with Jiang Heng to lay the supreme foundation for Fuxi to become a saint in one fell swoop.
And what Jiang Heng knew, how could Hongjun, the Taoist ancestor who controlled the power of heaven by combining his body with Tao, not know?
Just like what Jiang Heng said just now, no matter how important it is to re-sign the list of gods, is it as important as becoming a saint?
Obviously, the place on the list of gods is not important at all. Who can control the creature that can become a saint in the future is the more critical thing.
If possible, whether it is the two saints Jieying and Zhunti, or saints such as Tongtian Cult Leader and Yuanshi Tianzun, who would not want their disciples to become saints?
This is a heaven-defying opportunity. The birth of a new saint may even have an extremely huge impact on the entire prehistoric world.
"The Human Emperor is right. I'm afraid the teacher just wants to use the matter of re-signing the list of gods to confuse the public and divert our attention.
If we do not prepare in advance, when the opportunity for sanctification arises, we will definitely lose the opportunity! "Sage Nuwa said in a deep voice.
Although Saint Nuwa said that she did not participate in things in the ancient world, the matter of Fuxi's sanctification was something that Saint Nuwa could not let go of.
"So, this calamity should belong to the new saint?" Leader Tongtian said hesitantly.
Regarding this calamity, Lord Tongtian actually didn't have much thought. All he thought about was actually self-preservation.
After becoming a god and measuring calamity, Master Tongtian gradually figured it out and began to try his best to restrain his disciples, which actually made Jiejiao lose a lot of cause and effect.
Later, during the calamity of the journey to the west, he encountered the betrayal of Taoist Duobao, and the Tongtian leader gradually became disheartened.
Without the ambition to be the best, I thought that Jie Jiao would be able to avoid a lot of trouble by keeping a low profile. Who would have thought that there would actually be a re-signing of the list of gods.
Although Jie Jiao keeps a low profile, it is difficult to conceal the fact that he has many disciples. Jie Jiao will definitely bear the brunt of signing the list of gods again.
After being taught the lesson of Conferring Gods and Measuring Tribulation, how could Master Tongtian be willing to let his disciples be on the Conferred Gods List again?
"This calamity still belongs to our human race. Since the beginning of the Conferred God Calamity, our race has become a thorn in the side of Heaven.
What's more, in this calamity, no matter who the new saint is, it will definitely be a human race! "Jiang Heng said slowly.
The birth of the Heaven and Earth Calamity Tribulation is not that simple. Jiang Heng guessed that there might be traces of the way of heaven in it.
In today's prehistoric world, if there is anyone Dao Zu Hongjun and Tiandao want to deal with most, it is the human race.
Since the beginning of the Calamity of the Gods, Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Tiandao have been trying to weaken the human race, but they failed to succeed because of Jiang Heng's existence.
The worries of Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Tiandao are not without reason. Today's human race has indeed reached a certain level of prosperity.
But this is not the limit of the human race. In the next tribulation, there should be one human race who will become a new saint.
Saints are all special beings. Nuwa became a saint because of the creation of human beings, Sanqing became a saint because of the legacy of Pangu, and Jieyin and Zhunti became a saint because of Taoist ancestor Hongjun.
No matter what the reason is, you can't escape the word "luck". This is also the rule in the ancient world that controls everything.
In today's prehistoric world, the ones with the most prosperity are naturally the human race, which is also a necessary condition for the birth of New Year.
Only with the support of the entire human race and the immeasurable destiny of the human race can it be possible to break the limit and become a new saint.
After all, Jiang Heng is a special being. In the original history, there were no saints in the human race at all.
But in this era, as the protagonist of the prehistoric world, the human race will truly usher in its own saint.
This is the rule of the ancient world, or the true general trend of heaven, and represents a certain inevitable trend in the development of the ancient world.
Of course, this is definitely inconsistent with the plan of Daozu Hongjun and Tiandao, and it inevitably casts a shadow on the matter.
In the original historical trajectory, Taoist ancestor Hongjun and Tiandao worked hard and worked hard to completely wipe out the human race.
How could it be possible for a saint to appear in the human race? Wouldn't this lead the human race to rise again? What is the meaning of everything that Daozu Hongjun and Tiandao have planned so hard?
But now, because of Jiang Heng's existence, the human race is already extremely powerful. If another saint appears, won't it be even more prosperous?
Jiang Heng knew without thinking that Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Tiandao would never allow a new saint to appear in the human race.
At that time, the destiny of humanity will surely reach its peak, and the power of humanity will also increase dramatically, which will pose a great threat to the way of heaven.
"So, could it be that the teacher's goal is actually my brother Fuxi?" Saint Nuwa's expression changed slightly and she said in a deep voice.
Although the things planned by Sage Nuwa and Jiang Heng are very hidden, they may be able to hide them from other saints, but it is difficult to hide them from Tiandao and Taoist Hongjun.
With the abilities of Heavenly Dao and Dao Ancestor Hongjun, I am afraid that they already knew that Fuxi was reincarnated into the human race and even descended into the human world.
At such a critical moment, Daozu Hongjun suddenly proposed to re-sign the list of gods, which would not make the saint Nuwa think about it.
"In fact, there is another possibility. If Heaven becomes the master of the three realms, the fate of the entire prehistoric era will be condensed in Heaven.
At that time, Jade Emperor Haotian may be able to become a new saint by condensing the luck of the three realms! Jiang Heng said in a deep voice.
At this point, Saint Nuwa and Master Tongtian have completely understood that this is what Taoist ancestor Hongjun's plan is.
Everything is a battle of luck! If Heaven can become the master of the three realms, the destiny of the human race will naturally be in the hands of Heaven.
When the time comes, the fate of the entire three realms will be gathered together, and the Jade Emperor Haotian will be the worthy master of the three realms, and becoming a saint will naturally not be difficult.
In the final analysis, the core of this calamity measurement is actually the same as the Conferring God Measuring Calamity. It is also a struggle between heaven and man.
Around the birth of the new saint, the way of heaven and the way of humanity compete, and Taoist ancestors Hongjun and Jiang Heng are the spokespersons of the way of heaven and humanity respectively.
Will the way of heaven be able to completely overwhelm the way of humanity, or will the way of humanity be able to overwhelm the way of heaven, or will there be no winner or lose, just like when the gods are conferring tribulations?
The key actually lies in who the new saint is. Heaven and the human race are bound to compete in this calamity.
The re-signing of the list of gods is more like Taoist ancestor Hongjun's plan to pull out all the money, with the purpose of provoking disputes among the saints.
Gu Nao
Moreover, once the new list of gods is successfully signed, Heavenly Court will naturally become the master of the three realms, and even completely subdue the human race.
As for Jiang Heng and Houtu Zuwu, although Tiandao and Daozu Hongjun are afraid of them, they are not really unable to deal with them.
"This matter is no small matter, we must come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible!" Saint Nuwa said in a deep voice.
Saint Nuwa has been planning for Fuxi's sainthood for a long time. She is about to succeed, so how can she be willing to fall short?
"It doesn't matter! Heaven will soon be overwhelmed with care for itself. Just relying on the useless Jade Emperor Haotian won't be able to accomplish anything!" Jiang Heng said with a smile.
Perhaps the biggest mistake made by Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Tiandao was to let Jade Emperor Haotian become the Lord of Heaven. This was definitely a big mistake.
Whether it is his skills or his own strength, Jade Emperor Haotian is actually a bit unsatisfactory, even inferior to many strong men.
The useless Jade Emperor Haotian still wants to become a saint? Isn't this the biggest joke in the world?
Could it be that just because the Jade Emperor Haotian was once the boy who sat down with Daozu Hongjun, to the extent of nepotism, Daozu Hongjun has no one else.
However, there was one thing that Jiang Heng did not tell Saint Nuwa and Master Tongtian, that is, the imminent consummation of the Way of Heaven.
According to Jiang Heng's guess, the way of heaven will be completely perfected during this calamity, but the time is not so certain.
Perhaps before this calamity is over, the way of heaven has been perfected. Or maybe the way of heaven will be perfected when this calamity is truly completed.
No matter what time it is, once the way of heaven is truly perfected, everything in this calamity will completely lose its meaning.
Even though Daozu Hongjun failed, Fuxi finally became a saint with the help of Jiang Heng and Nuwa Saint.
The power of humanity has reached its peak, but when faced with the complete perfection of heaven, it is still not enough.
At that time, the way of heaven will be able to completely suppress all obstacles in the ancient world and completely control the ancient world.
The reason why Daozu Hongjun took so much trouble was because he wanted everyone to focus on this calamity.
If Daozu Hongjun's plan succeeds, it will naturally be the best. There is no need for Heaven to take action, Daozu Hongjun can control everything.
Even if it fails, it can buy enough time for the perfection of the way of heaven, thus avoiding unpredictable dangers.
I am afraid that what Daozu Hongjun is most afraid of right now is that Jiang Heng has discovered the secret of the perfection of the way of heaven. He has never taken any risk and will be defeated in a desperate situation.
If Jiang Heng and Hou Tu Zuwu really do not hesitate to die and are determined to die, they may not be able to die together with the unfulfilled way of heaven.
However, Dao Ancestor Hongjun could not have imagined that Jiang Heng had already known about the perfection of the way of heaven.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun was buying time for the perfection of Heaven's Way, so why wasn't Jiang Heng buying time for himself? Everyone is just acting for each other.
Moreover, so far, Jiang Heng is certain that neither Dao Ancestor Hongjun nor Tiandao knows that he has entered the realm of quasi-immortal emperor.
This is Jiang Heng's biggest advantage. If nothing can be done, Jiang Heng actually has one last trick he can use.
However, Jiang Heng would not want to use this trick at all unless it was a last resort.
Jiang Heng, Saint Nuwa and Master Tongtian discussed in detail for a while, and then dispersed.
Time passed by, and one hundred years passed by in a blink of an eye. It was time for all the saints to gather in Zixiao Palace again to discuss the matter of re-signing the list of gods.
This time, after all the saints arrived at Zixiao Palace, they were all silent, as if no one had any intention of speaking actively.
"A hundred years ago, I asked you to go back and discuss it carefully. Today, a hundred years later, we will come back to discuss the matter of re-signing the list of gods!
Now that the centenary period has arrived, have you discussed any countermeasures? "Daozu Hongjun asked.
All the saints lowered their heads and eyes, but still no saint took the initiative to speak. There was no need to say anything about what they were paying attention to.
"Dao Ancestor! If that's the case, then let the saints each rely on their abilities. If he dies and ends up on the list of gods, he can't blame anyone!" Jiang Heng said with a smile.
Jiang Heng is naturally very clear about the little thoughts of the saints. At this moment, I am afraid that the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi still have a lot of resentment towards Taoist Hongjun.
Since the moment they became gods and measured the calamity, these three saints have all stood unswervingly on the side of Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
However, when the list of gods needs to be signed again, it will still fall on saints like them. How can they be willing to do so?
Perhaps, in the hearts of the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi, they wished that Daozu Hongjun could take the initiative to help them and put this matter on the human race.
But what disappointed these three saints was that Daozu Hongjun had no intention of doing so at all, and instead acted quite selflessly.
It's as if a bowl of water has been leveled, allowing the saints to perform freely. The final result depends entirely on their own methods.
But if this is the case, what is the reason why the three saints stand unswervingly on the side of Taoist Hongjun?
Do you really want your disciples to be on the list of gods? This is an unacceptable result for the three saints Jie Yin, Zhunti and Yuanshi.
"In this calamity, it is difficult for the human race to stay out of the matter. What does the Human Emperor want?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun asked.
Daozu Hongjun said such words at this time, which immediately gave rise to a glimmer of hope in the hearts of the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi.
"This emperor has long said that the affairs of the human race belong to the human race. If anyone thinks that his methods are high enough, he can try it!" Jiang Heng said.
The three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi all looked at Daozu Hongjun expectantly, and even hoped that Daozu Hongjun would be angry because of this.
What disappointed the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi was that Daozu Hongjun just nodded in response to Jiang Heng's answer.
"In this case, the matter of the Conferred Gods List is temporarily shelved. During this calamity, who will be on the Conferred Gods List depends on fate!" Dao Ancestor Hongjun said in a deep voice.
Jiang Heng was not surprised at all. Sage Nuwa and Master Tongtian also looked as normal, as if they had expected this.
Houtu Zuwu didn't come at all this time, and had already entered the deepest level of seclusion in the six paths of reincarnation.
Perhaps, when he comes out of seclusion next time, Hou Tu Zuwu will no longer be the seventh saint under the heaven, but will be on an equal footing with the heaven.
Only the three saints, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi, looked gloomy at this time, and their eyes could not hide their disappointment.
No matter how unwilling they were, facing such a result, the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi could only accept it helplessly.
Looking at each other, the three saints Jie Ying, Zhunti and Yuanshi should have joined together to keep warm during this calamity.
Jiang Heng couldn't help but sneer in his heart. The three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi thought they could sleep peacefully by taking refuge in Daozu Hongjun?
But in the eyes of Daozu Hongjun, the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi were just pawns in his hands from beginning to end.
If we wait until the way of heaven is truly perfected and the world is completely cleansed, will the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi still have the value of existing?
Perhaps, there is no need to wait until that time, the three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi will have become expendable pawns.
It is difficult to distinguish between the two saints Jieyin and Zhunti, but the saint Yuanshi Tianzun may have an unusual meaning in the eyes of Taoist Hongjun.
After all, Yuanshi Tianzun is one of the Three Pure Ones. He is composed of three parts of Pangu Yuanshen. He was born by adhering to the destiny of Pangu. This is extraordinary in the ancient world.
Everyone has their own choices, even saints. Now that you have chosen, you must bear the consequences of your choice.
After the discussion in Zixiao Palace, all the saints had their own wishful thinking and began to prepare intensively for the calamity.
Saints Jieyin and Zhunti accelerated the expansion of Heaven, constantly harvesting faith and cultivating Heaven's combat power.
This clearly shows that he is gathering strength and preparing for war at any time. The attitude of the two saints Jie Yin and Zhunti towards this calamity is self-evident.
Chanjiao, which had been dormant for a long time, gradually became active, and not surprisingly formed an alliance with Heaven.
It can be said that Chanjiao suffered heavy losses in the Conferring God Tribulation. Even Chanjiao lost most of its twelve golden immortals, and its strength is no longer what it used to be.
And some of the third-generation disciples who were originally extremely outstanding in Chanjiao were cut off by Jiang Heng, and the situation of Chanjiao can be imagined.
However, Chanjiao has been silent for so many years, and has continuously cultivated talented disciples, and has also recovered a lot of vitality.
If we give Chanjiao some more time, it is not impossible for Chanjiao to regain its former glory, or even surpass it.
Chanjiao, which had just started to improve, is now faced with the matter of re-signing the Conferred Gods List. If it doesn't work well, it will decline again.
Just how terrifying the calamity is can be seen from the Conferred God Measuring Calamity. How could Yuanshi Tianzun be willing to let the disciples of Chanjiao be on the list of conferred gods?
The so-called dead Taoist friends are not dead! Heaven and Chanjiao are not included in the list of gods, but the spots on the list still need to be filled.
Looking at the Three Realms today, apart from the human race, the only people who can fill the 1,080 quotas are Jie Jiao.
Jiejiao was also severely defeated in the Conferred God Tribulation, but it was not as miserable as in the original historical trajectory, and it still retained most of its power.
The Jiejiao that Wan Xian came to court is not just talk. After these years of recovery, it is even worse than when he was conferred the gods to measure the calamity.
Compared with the human race, Jiejiao is obviously easier to deal with. The three saints Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi are naturally looking for soft persimmons.
Saint Nuwa was originally the Virgin Mother of the human race, enjoying the fate of the human race. She did not have a sect, so the list of gods had little to do with her.
But because of Jiang Heng's reminder, Sage Nuwa has attached great importance to this calamity, and the key lies in Fuxi.
Although everything had been planned long ago, due to the existence of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Fuxi's becoming a saint has already undergone great changes.
As for the leader of Tongtian Cult, he showed an extremely indifferent attitude.
