Chapter 243: Edict and Karma

Liu Xiu has been the emperor of Han Dynasty for 30 years.

The Han Dynasty is no longer what it used to be, and the world has taken on a completely new look. The territory of the Han Dynasty covers almost the entire Nanfang continent, with a population of hundreds of millions, all walks of life are booming, and the national power is far superior to that of previous dynasties.

As the emperor of this huge dynasty, Liu Xiu's achievements can no longer be described as one emperor through the ages.

But he knew very well who all these changes came from.

Without Master Sun's teachings, he would not have been able to achieve such great achievements, so he has always been grateful and in awe.

At this moment, when he saw Sun Wukong, he quickly put down the memorial in his hand and saluted respectfully: "Xiu meets the master."

Sun Wukong smiled and said: "The time has come for humanity to manifest."

Hearing this, Liu Xiu suddenly became excited.

His power in the human world has reached its peak, but he has never forgotten how big this world is, and what position the human race is in the entire mythical world.

To change all this, the national power of the human dynasty needs to be strong enough to give humanity a chance to manifest.

Now, the chance has finally come!
After Sun Wukong explained carefully, Liu Xiu summoned the officials to discuss state affairs.

To be precise, it is not a national matter, but a major event related to the fate of the entire human race.

When a group of civil servants and military generals heard what Liu Xiu said about the manifestation of human nature, human totems and other immortal things, many young ministers couldn't help but worry whether today's people would be like King Zhou Mu, Qin Shihuang and Emperor Xiaowu in their old age. Have you started pursuing the illusory immortality?
Only some veterans remembered the past 30 years ago, and recalled that when Nanyang was flooded, a dragon appeared in the sky, which not only subdued the giant ape, but also calmed the flood.

At that time, some people said that the dragon was summoned by the current emperor.

Now that Liu Xiu mentioned the matter of gods again, although some veterans were suspicious, they did not object.

Finally, Liu Xiu led the ministers to the square outside Weiyang Palace.

Sun Wukong is already waiting here. He is still the image of Taoist Master Sun, a Taoist with a pale face, looking at the Taoist bones with immortal wind.

Liu Xiu, dressed in emperor's uniform, stepped forward and saluted: "Master, it's time to begin."

The ministers were shocked, and many ministers were even more worried, thinking that the emperor had been bewitched by evil spirits.

For example, Liu Yan, Deng Yu, Zhu You and others were surprised and confused. They had met Daozhang Sun when they were children. Now decades have passed, why has Daozhang Sun not changed at all?
Next, a scene that stunned everyone appeared.

I saw Sun Wukong wave the dust in his hand, and pieces of earth and stone quickly rose up in the huge square. In the blink of an eye, a tall altar was erected, majestic and solemn, overlooking the entire Chang'an city.

"Invite the emperor of the human race to come to the altar." Sun Wukong said, then grabbed Liu Xiu's arm and led him up into the sky and onto the altar.

At this moment, the people of Chang'an City also saw the sudden appearance of the altar in the palace, and they were all surprised.

Under the attention of everyone, Sun Wukong took out a brilliant divine seal and handed it to Liu Xiu: "This is the most precious treasure of the human race, the Kongtong Seal. It can suppress the fate of the human race. Now it is in your charge. I hope you can lead the human race to start an unprecedented new world." of prosperity."

Liu Xiu saluted seriously: "Xiu Ding has lived up to his great trust!"

Then, according to the ritual that Sun Wukong had explained before, he walked to the center of the altar and said with a majestic face: "Invite the Dragon Clan!"

"Roar!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a dragon's roar roaring into the sky.

Ao Lie transformed into a golden dragon and leaped out from the Jing River. The body of a real dragon that was ten thousand feet long was winding and circling over Chang'an City, which was extraordinary.

Following closely behind was the Dragon Clan from the Jing River lineage.

Looking at those giant dragons, the ministers and people were all shocked.

Many people finally understood that the legend was true, and today the emperor can summon the dragon!
But it wasn't over yet, another dragon roar echoed through the sky.

I saw the Dragon King of the East China Sea and the Dragon King of the North Sea leading a group of dragon clans from the East China Sea and the North Sea, each of them showing their true form with great momentum.

"Ao Lie, the Great Dragon God of Rain, the Director of the Eight Rivers, has met the Human King." Ao Lie's voice was like thunder.

He did not call Liu Xiu the Son of Heaven, but directly called the King of Humans. He was obviously full of confidence in what happened today. The lineage of the Human Kings will regain the status they lost thousands of years ago!

"I've seen the Human King!" Many dragon clans, including the Dragon King of the East China Sea and the Dragon King of the North Sea, also said in unison.

They are even more excited and looking forward to it. If they can succeed today, then there will be hope for the Dragon Clan!

Liu Xiu's expression did not change. He stood in the center of the altar, raised the Kongtong Seal again, and said solemnly: "Liu Xiuzhao, the great emperor of the human race, declares to heaven and earth that he now decrees that the dragon clan will be the totem of our human clan. Ao Lie will occupy the position of the dragon god who protects the human race. I hope that Heaven and earth will learn from it!”

The heaven and earth here do not refer to heaven and earth, but to the whole world.

Sun Wukong nodded softly beside him. Although the dragon clan had become the totem of the human race as early as the Three Emperors period in ancient times, it had not reached the level of imperial edict.

Now with Liu Xiu's edict, from now on, the fate of the dragon clan and the human clan will be closely linked.

If the human race's luck becomes stronger, the dragon clan will also benefit; if the human race's luck weakens, the dragon clan will also suffer!

After Liu Xiuzhao told the world, the Kongtong Seal shone brightly, and the sky above Chang'an City was filled with turbulence and strange phenomena.

The fate of the human race is already strong enough, and the emperor's words can shake the world.

At this moment, all parties in the three realms felt the changes in the underworld, and all looked towards Nanfangbu Continent.

They saw many dragon clans gathered in Chang'an City, and also saw the human emperor Liu Xiu holding the Kongtong Seal.

I saw scenes from the past of the human race appearing on the divine seal.

Nuwa created human beings, and those innate human races shouted the Holy Mother.

There is a scene where the third ancestor of the human race leads the human race to survive tenaciously in the vast wilderness.

There is also the scene of the three emperors and five emperors in ancient times, leading the human race to fight against other races and becoming the masters of the ancient world.

After that, there were countless scenes such as Dayu's control of floods, King Wu's defeat of Zhou, a hundred schools of thought contending, the unification of the First Emperor, and the opening of the Han Dynasty by Wu, etc., which changed in an instant.

The self-improving human race has had its glory years and its troughs, and now it has finally reached an era of glory again!
Finally, the scene on the Kongtong Seal was frozen, showing the scene of Liu Xiu holding the Kongtong Seal, declaring the dragon clan to be the totem of the entire human race, and declaring Ao Lie to be the dragon god who protects the human race.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"..."

Dragon roars resounded in the darkness, as if they were coming from a distant era, crossing the barriers of time and space, and arriving in this world.

Immediately afterwards, dragon-shaped phantoms swam out from the void, jumped onto the Kongtong Seal, and hovered over it like stripes.

one!
two!

Three!

……

Nine!

When the nine soaring dragon patterns appeared on the Kongtong Seal, the divine seal emitted an even more dazzling light, like the blazing sun, covering all the dragons present.

Ao Lie, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, the Dragon King of the North Sea and many other dragon clans were all extremely excited. When the nine dragon roars sounded just now, their dragon bloodline seemed to feel the call from the ancestral dragon.

At this moment, the light released by the Kongtong Seal made their feelings even stronger.Just like signing a contract, it is now the will of the ancestral dragon in the dark, representing the dragon clan and the human race to sign an unbreakable and eternal contract.

"dragon!"

"dragon!"

"dragon!"

At this moment, not only these dragons felt it, but all the people of the Han Dynasty felt it in their hearts and shouted for this ancient creature, dragon.

The dragon has symbolized auspiciousness, courage and strength since ancient times, with an indomitable spirit and momentum!

"I don't know how powerful the dragon clan was in the ancient prehistoric era." This thought flashed through Sun Wukong's mind, but he did not relax his vigilance. He knew that the next step was a test.

……

At this time, all the quasi-sage powers from all three realms saw this huge scene.

In Kunlun Mountain, the Antarctic Immortal noticed the movement coming from Nanfangbu Continent. He stood on Qilin Cliff and watched.

When he saw that it was Ao Lie who led a group of dragons to accept the human clan's imperial edict, he understood that this must be Sun Wukong's plan again, because Ao Lie was Sun Wukong's disciple.

Moreover, in the past few years, Sun Wukong repeatedly destroyed the human dynasty of Buddhism in Nanfangbu continent, and we can see some clues. This monkey and Buddhism have never dealt with it, so they will use the human race to make calculations.

Thinking of this, he sneered: "What can a small human race do? Let the dragon race accept the imperial edict of the human race?
After all, he has learned very little and has little knowledge!
Want to use the Dragon Clan to increase the strength of the human race to fight against the Buddhist teachings?

Little do they know that the karma of the Dragon Clan is like a poisonous one, and even the Dragon Clan themselves are suffering from it. How dare they form an alliance with the Dragon Clan?
You are really trying to be smart, but you suffer the consequences!This weak human race may be facing a catastrophe! "

Of course the Antarctic Immortal knew that the Dragon Clan must be trying to borrow the luck of the Human Clan to unlock the shackles of karma hidden in the entire Dragon Clan's bloodline.

But things are not that simple!
During the Three Emperors period in ancient times, many dragon clans had already thought of this method. For example, Ying Long helped the Yellow Emperor defeat Chi You, and the Dragon King of Guangjin went to help Shang Zhou, but ended up dead.

But they all made a brief attempt and failed to connect the fate of the entire dragon clan with the human race.

The main reason is that they don't dare. The human race does not have the countless years of experience of the dragon race. Once they bear the yoke of such huge karma, I am afraid that the entire race will perish.

But now, Sun Wukong has actually connected the destiny of dragons and humans. What a wishful thinking!

……

Lingshan, Daleiyin Temple.

The Tathagata Buddha sits high on the nine-grade golden lotus of merit, and below are the Buddhist Bodhisattvas, Venerables, Arhats, Vajras, etc.

In addition, there are the Dragon King of the West Sea and the Dragon King of the South Sea, who devoutly salute Tathagata Buddha.

The Dragon King of the South Sea has long since taken refuge in Buddhism through Guanyin Bodhisattva, and now he has brought the Dragon King of the West Sea over too.

Because some time ago Ao Lie summoned the dragon kings of the four seas to discuss accepting the imperial title from the human king and becoming the totem of the human race.

Of course, the Dragon King of the South China Sea is unwilling. Not to mention that he belongs to the Buddhist side. Even if he does not seek refuge with Buddhism, he still looks down on the weak human race.

After all, the seniors of the Dragon Clan have tried it a long time ago, and the luck of the human race cannot solve the karmic shackles of the Dragon Clan at all.

And that was a powerful ancient human race. Today's human race is so weak that they are all like ants. What use can they do?

So he directly rejected Ao Lie's invitation.

As for the Dragon King of the West Sea, needless to say, he and Ao Lie had already broken up with each other and did not go to see Ao Lie at all.

He also knew that whether this matter succeeded or not, the power structure within the Dragon Clan would change.

Because he was worried about revenge, he came to the West and joined Buddhism through the introduction of the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

At this point, the Dragon Clan of the Three Realms split.

After they paid their respects to Tathagata Buddha, they had not yet left Daleiyin Temple.

Tathagata Buddha noticed a big movement in Nanfangbuzhou. With a wave of his sleeve, a huge bubble appeared in the sky above the Main Hall, showing the scene of Chang'an City.

After watching the whole process of Ao Lie, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, the Dragon King of the North Sea and other dragon clans receiving the imperial edict from the human emperor, all the monks were extremely surprised.

"Dare you even take on the karma of the entire dragon clan?"

Many Bodhisattvas and sages with high cultivation levels can see that this kind of edict is different from the past. It connects the destiny of the dragon clan with the destiny of the human clan.

The Dragon King of the South Sea and the Dragon King of the West Sea looked at each other, and they were thankful that they did not take risks with Ao Lie.

It is conceivable that once the dragon clan's karma is transferred to the human race, the human race will decline even more.

And those dragons who are closely related to the human race will also suffer from it, and their fall from the realm is considered a minor one!
Compared with Ao Lie and other dragon clans, these dragon clans who joined Buddhism are undoubtedly lucky.

Although the merits of Buddhism cannot truly solve the karmic shackles of the dragon clan, it has a certain suppressive effect on the karmic shackles on them.

When Buddhism flourishes in the future, maybe their karmic shackles can be truly resolved!
The two dragon kings did not notice the flash of surprise in Tathagata Buddha's eyes.

……

Heavenly Court, Lingxiao Palace.

The Jade Emperor sits high on the Nine Heavens throne, and on both sides of the hall are a group of immortal officials and generals.

At this moment, the Haotian Mirror hangs high above the main hall, and what is shown inside is also the scene of Chang'an City.

The immortals also understood what was going on at this moment, and they all knew that this must have been done under the instruction of Sun Wukong, the great emperor of Ziwei.

When they saw that the emperor of the human race had sealed the dragon clan, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Originally, these had little to do with them. Since becoming gods, the human race has not changed much. The replacement of dynasties in the lower realm and the changes of time will not have much impact on gods like them.

But things are different now. Previously, Buddhism left thousands of Buddhist temples in Nanfangbu Continent. Some of them were set aside by the current human emperor and converted into palaces to worship the immortals in heaven.

Over the years, they have enjoyed countless incense and faith in heaven and benefited a lot.

From this point alone, they hope that the human race will become more prosperous.

But if the human race is implicated by the dragon race's karma and never recovers, their source of incense will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, the immortals are very worried now.

In the main hall, only the Jade Emperor and Taibai Jinxing roughly knew what Sun Wukong was going to do.

Although Sun Wukong confidently told them that it would be possible, the two of them still had some doubts.

After all, the sins committed by the ancient dragon clan were too great, and the shackles of karma hidden in the blood of the dragon clan were simply not something that the human race could bear.

……

At this moment, the sky above Chang'an City is attracting attention from all parties in the three circles.

Crimson shackles like chains suddenly appeared on the bodies of many dragons headed by Ao Lie, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and the Dragon King of the North Sea. They intertwined into a group, exuding a creepy and terrifying aura.

Sun Wukong's eyes flashed with divine light, and he thought to himself: "If we can pass this level, then it will be enough for humanity to manifest!"
