Chapter 351: Sacrifice to Heaven and Earth
"Can't cause and effect be changed?" Mu Yi was shocked by Huo Qubing's statement.

"You can't use the power of cause and effect to change the cause and effect that has already happened! Especially the history of Kyushu!" Huo Qubing sighed.

"You can be considered as the leader of the younger generation of my military family. You have also been to the military hall. Have you ever thought about how grand it would be if my military family had a leader?"

When he said this, Huo Qubing couldn't help but show a smile of satisfaction on his face.

"I have many military schools, but in the final analysis, the more people there are, the stronger they are. If we can unite all the military gods, it may not be a stretch to conquer Lingshan. It's a pity..."

Huo Qubing shook his head. All the military gods were unruly and it would be very difficult to integrate them.

"Once upon a time, there was a great sage in the military strategists who wanted to reverse the history of the Nine Provinces and pull the military lord Chi You out of the history of the Nine Provinces to lead the military strategists. However, just as his causal magical power was unleashed, the punishment of the law of causality came down, and he was instantly reduced to ashes."

When Huo Qubing said this, his expression was full of sighs.

"Not only was the soul shattered, but the entire existence and past of the person were wiped out by the law of cause and effect. From then on, everyone understood that if they changed the cause and effect that they had witnessed, they would face the punishment of the law of cause and effect!"

"It is rumored that the punishment of the law of cause and effect comes from the current Jiuzhou consciousness, which is the so-called Heavenly Dao. Only most people who have mastered the ability of cause and effect will remember this. The rest of the people have completely forgotten the existence of such a person."

"So, the past history cannot be changed, but I..." Mu Yi said with a frown.

If he remembered correctly, Liu Bei once told him that they had privately modified the ending of the demise of Shu Kingdom in one or two small worlds to allow the Han Dynasty to rise again.

"It's not that it can't be changed, it's that you can't change it through the power of cause and effect. As long as you don't use the power of cause and effect to directly modify past history, you won't be punished by the law of cause and effect!"

"Remember, if you want to change the past, you must not use the power of cause and effect, use other methods to solve it!" Huo Qubing solemnly warned Mu Yi.

"I understand!" Mu Yi nodded and kept Huo Qubing's warning in mind.

“Try to direct the power of cause and effect toward yourself as much as possible, and use cause and effect to fight cause and effect, until you are no longer affected by cause and effect.”

"It's just like what I just said about anchoring victory. Let your participation in the battle become the cause, and the glorious victory become the result. In this way, we can sort out the cause and effect and strengthen our ability to distort reality!"

"However, it is too difficult for you to directly anchor victory. You can try to add cause and effect to the distortion of reality first, which is the so-called observing a path to victory."

Huo Qubing shared with Mu Yi all his understanding of the use of the magical power of cause and effect, and Mu Yi gained a lot.

Wu Jian's abilities have also been greatly developed.

Although it is not perfect yet, Mu Yi can already realize it. The future that he wants appears in reality. As long as he follows the steps according to the future he has reflected, he can fully realize his future expectations.

In other words, as long as there is a way to win, you can win directly.

During this period, Huo Qubing often came over and gave Mu Yi relevant guidance, which helped Mu Yi avoid many detours and develop his Wu Jian abilities more quickly.

Unlike the stagnant development of magical powers such as Lord of Soldiers and Mist, Wu Jian is the integration of Mu Yi's own abilities and is progressing rapidly.

However, after this thing was developed, Huo Qubing immediately taught him a lesson.

Mu Yi used his ability to predict the future on Huo Qubing, but when he was doing so, Huo Qubing, whose level was suppressed to the same as Mu Yi, suddenly used an ability that Mu Yi had never seen before.

The future that was originally read suddenly became illusory, and the future of victory was instantly shattered. Everything before had to be started over again.

"Reading the future is always just an assumption. If what the other party hides exceeds your estimation, then the future you read becomes a false future."

Huo Qubing found Wujian's loophole in the simplest way and showed it completely to Mu Yi.

"I understand! The foundation is the basis. This magical power is just a weapon in your hand. You can't rely on it to make a living!"

Mu Yi nodded. He would not regard this ability as the foundation of his life, but rather as a means of exploitation.

"Ruzi can be taught!"

Huo Qubing was very satisfied with Mu Yi's performance. He himself was a genius, and it was a torture for him to teach those untalented officers.

However, what Mu Yi showed at the moment made him very satisfied.

"How's Samsara doing lately?"

In the past, Huo Qubing would leave directly after teaching Mu Yi, but this time Huo Qubing raised a question.

"Everything is normal! There is nothing abnormal!" Mu Yi did not understand what Huo Qubing meant, and said honestly.

"Be prepared, you may be very busy in the next period of time!" Hearing this, Huo Qubing nodded and said to Mu Yi.

"Are you ready to end the chaos?"

Mu Yi also knew the process of establishing a new world, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

"We plan to project the Candle Dragon, speed up the flow of time on the surface, and then send a clone to the lower world to complete the unification!"

Huo Qubing did not hide it from Mu Yi and told him the plan that Wei Qing had prepared.

In fact, it is simple. Basically, it is to send some officers and soldiers to the earth to assist the clones of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing to sweep away all current forces, and then establish a unified dynasty.

Then they offered sacrifices to Heaven and Earth, built temples to honor Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, as well as various generals and officers, and recruited the heroic spirits of the war into the army.

At that time, this world will become a transit logistics base, making preliminary preparations for the army's attack on the big world.

"What are you going to do with those monks?" Mu Yi asked a question.

"In troubled times, there will be deaths!" Huo Qubing said meaningfully.

"After offering sacrifices to Huang Tian and Hou Tu, both the Heavenly Palace and the Underworld will officially move in, and it's time for them to leave!"

Mu Yi understood. This was an attempt to find an excuse to kick Buddhism out of this world. This could be considered as killing the donkey after it has done its work.

Although these monks are engaged in preaching, they are still quite good at their main job of saving the souls of the dead.

But they came here to share the cake after all. The original team of several hundred people has now grown to hundreds of thousands. In just three months, hundreds of temples have been built.

Not only did they curb the popularity of Buddhism, they even seemed to be trying to establish an independent Buddhist country and make it a state religion.

The military strategists are speeding up the process probably because they are annoyed by the speed of development of these Buddhist disciples.

When it comes to scheming, the military gods like the military strategists cannot beat the Buddhists, but they have their own solutions.

If you can't solve the problem, then get rid of the person who created the problem.

The method that the military strategists are best at is, of course, killing people. The military strategists are naturally vigorous and resolute in their actions. Almost as soon as Huo Qubing finished talking to Mu Yi the day before, a large number of true spirits came to the reincarnation the next day.

Mu Yi took the time to take a look at the situation on the surface. It was like watching a movie at double the speed. A young man who looked somewhat like Huo Qubing was leading the cavalry to fight east and west.

Many temples were razed to the ground, the golden bodies of Buddha statues were looted, and the monks in the temples were all burned to death.

However, what made Mu Yi curious was that Guangjin did not appear in the reincarnation, and even a few of the Buddhist disciples at the beginning were not seen.

After randomly capturing the souls of two monks and taking a closer look, they discovered that Guangjin and his fellow monks had voluntarily passed away one by one into Nirvana long before the military strategists took action.

They said they had passed away, but Mu Yi didn't see the souls of these guys at all. They might have faked their death and escaped from this world.

"He runs really fast!" Mu Yi smacked his lips.

These fellows in Buddhism are really good at seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune. I'm afraid they will choose to pass away and escape the moment they realize that the speed of time is not right.

Although the basic foundation that they had worked so hard to build was completely destroyed, the belief in incense is like cutting leeks. No matter what the final result is, these guys have really cut a lot of money before.

Not only Guangjin, but also Guangjin's fellow disciples have become legends. If they were ordinary people who believed in the god of incense and fire, there would definitely be problems if the temple was destroyed. However, with the support of a powerful force like Lingshan, there is no need to worry about the incense and fire running out.

As long as you get the chance, spread the Buddhist faith, and get a lot of incense, with the help of Lingshan, your strength will immediately soar.

Not to mention being a legend, one can even surpass demigod and become a true god or Buddha.

After Buddhism was purged, military strategists used military formations to come up with a similar method of salvation, which separated the resentment of the dead souls from their true spirits by warming up weapons and equipment.

Although it is not as professional as Buddhism, and there are twists and turns in the process, it is the military's own thing and can also enhance the strength of soldiers, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

At the beginning, Mu Yi was very busy, running the Samsara Knot almost 24 hours a day to pray for the souls of the dead.

After the military strategist came up with this military formation called the Salvation Array, Mu Yi's workload dropped significantly.

Although the efficiency of the military method is lower than that of Buddhism, the military has more manpower than Buddhism.

Mu Yi finally had some free time and found that things on the ground were back on track. A large group of heavenly soldiers and generals came to the earth. How could those defeated souls who were reincarnated be a match for these people?

In less than seven years, the great unification was completed and a new dynasty was established, which was named Daxia.

The first thing to do after establishing a country is naturally to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.

A grand ceremony to worship the heaven was held on earth, and officials from the Ministry of Rites presided over the ceremony according to the procedures.

Just as Mu Yi was watching the play, when the emperor incarnated by Wei Qing began to recite the sacrificial text in front of the large tripod shaped like the Jiuzhou Tripod, a rainbow light shot up into the sky and broke through the clouds.

The next moment, a magnificent scene appeared in the clouds.

Countless figures were standing above the clouds. In the center of the front stood two unclear figures, with all kinds of strange phenomena descending around them.

Although he couldn't see clearly, Mu Yi understood their identities at a glance.

The Great Emperor of Heaven and the Great Emperor of Earth.

Just by looking at the blurry figure, Mu Yi felt like he was looking up to a mountain, and immediately looked away.

However, the figures standing beside these two people were a little blurry, but when Mu Yi looked over, they were all figures that made him feel extremely depressed.

Although it is not very clear, we can roughly distinguish who these figures are.

Jade Pure Yuanshi Tianzun, Upper Pure Lingbao Tianzun, Great Pure Daode Tianzun, Western Taiji Tianhuang Dadi, Zhongtian Ziwei Beiji Taihuang Dadi, Dongji Qinghua Dadi, Nanji Changsheng Dadi...

Even Tathagata Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva stand among them.

Mu Yi tried hard not to look at these big guys, but when they stood there, it was impossible to ignore their existence.

Just when Mu Yi was numb, the next moment the world spun around, and he found himself being pulled from the underworld to the sky, standing with the gods, but almost in the last row.

Although Mu Yi didn't know what was going on, he still stood obediently in the cloud.

"Sacrifice to the Heaven and Earth, and praise the gods..."

As the emperor below finished reciting the sacrificial text and lit it in his hand and threw it into the cauldron, a pillar of light that penetrated the sky and the earth shot straight into the sky from the cauldron, and the originally blurry figure began to appear.

Starting from the Heaven and Earth, countless figures standing in the sky began to burst out with intense light, and strands of light were cast into the light column.

Mu Yifu's mind was awakened, and he belatedly activated the divine position, transforming his own breath into a ray of light and throwing it into the light column.

Finally, the pillar of light that penetrated the sky and the earth turned into a curtain that covered the sky. The entire territory of the empire was covered by this curtain. For the people of the empire, being under the curtain made them feel refreshed and free from disasters and illnesses.

As for the residual souls of those gods, this curtain exuded a domineering aura as it swept across them.

Supreme majesty and heaviness.

Many remaining souls of gods immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, begging for mercy from God, and the courage to resist in their hearts completely dissipated.

Dozens of gods more powerful than the former Beast God descended and directly broke down all the defenses in their hearts.

The gods crawling on the ground were pardoned, and the power of heaven was only majestic but not murderous.

And those already crazy gods, unwilling to stand still, were crushed inch by inch by the pressure ten thousand times heavier than before, and the flames that were born out of thin air left marks on their bodies.

This is a festival, the gods will not take action to exorcise the demons.

But after the ceremony, the Heavenly Court will send people to eliminate these marked gods and ferocious beasts. This is also part of the Heavenly Court gods' way of maintaining the order of heaven and earth.

Soon after, the curtain turned into rain of light that dripped from the sky, silently blending into the mountains, rivers, land, and all living things.

The entire empire was full of vitality and prosperity.

"Praise the Heaven and Earth, praise the gods!"

The people of the empire prayed one after another. Everyone could personally feel the gift of this grand ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens, and their identification with the empire and the gods was greatly enhanced.

After the curtain fell, the emperor began to confer titles on his meritorious officials. In addition to the officers who emerged during the war, some gods were also conferred titles. They were all mountain and water elves who had helped the empire during the war.

But Mu Yi actually had both.
