Chapter 644: Following the example of the Heaven, the Earthly Emperor, the Supreme Jade Emperor
"I never said that I am willing to be your Lord of the Earth." As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
The one who spoke was none other than the ruler of the underworld, Niangniang Pingxin.
From the words, all the gods in Lingxiao Palace could clearly sense the coldness and even malice coming from this Lady Pingxin.
At this time, all the gods in Lingxiao Palace, including Taiyi Zhenren, suddenly remembered something.
They nominated Empress Pingxin as the Ruler of the Earth, taking many things into consideration, but they forgot to consider one thing.
That is, whether Empress Pingxin herself is willing to be the so-called Lord of the Earth.
At this time, Empress Pingxin's attitude clearly told the gods in Lingxiao Palace that she was unwilling!
The scene suddenly became cold.
Zhang Bairen, who was lurking among the gods, was almost about to explode.
In the discussion of the Six Emperors, what he really cared about was not whether the Six Emperors could achieve success - but how to find a way to seek the authority of the Great Celestial Lord after becoming the Six Emperors, but without having to share the ominous filth of heaven and earth on the Great Celestial Lord.
In this regard, his initial plan was to first anger the Queen Mother, so that the Queen Mother, who might have originally supported the Six Emperors, would not be able to help but think of their despicable behavior when she thought of the Six Emperors' proposal, and make the Queen Mother believe from the bottom of her heart that the existence of the Six Emperors was not to help the Great Heavenly Venerable, but to target the Great Heavenly Venerable and to murder him.
In this way, the Queen Mother's attention will naturally fall on the Six Imperial Concubines themselves, rather than on their powers and responsibilities.
By then, in the midst of the entanglement, I will combine the power of heaven, earth and man, and with the support of saints, gods and the king of men, I will directly become the Lord of Heaven. By then, the definition of the Six Lords will be blurred by the Queen Mother herself, so naturally no one can stop me from doing what I want.
As long as the world grows and develops under his guidance, what does it matter if Haotian continues to bear the ominous filth of the world?
Therefore, the rumors spread by King Mu seemed to be aimed at West Kunlun, intending to influence the path of the Queen Mother of the West, but in fact, their root target was actually the Queen Mother herself.
They hoped to use this method to anger Yao Chi and make him lose his judgment of the situation in anger - asking the saint to take action was also to achieve this goal.
In order to make Queen Mother feel aggrieved because of the saint's bias, and to make her feel disheartened because she thinks that the saint is too selfish and does not care about Haotian who has made great sacrifices for the world.
Once the Queen Mother has this basic position, the subsequent discussions of the Six Imperial Concubines will naturally follow.
But he never expected that the Queen Mother would appear unusually calm in this matter, and the rumors spread by King Mu did not disrupt her judgment at all.
"It's still that long worm that caused the trouble."
"Otherwise, Xi Kunlun will be forced to leave, and the world will be in chaos. I will take advantage of the chaos to plot against Liu Yu. Then Yao Chi will be wary of Liu Yu's selfishness and value Liu Yu's power..."
"Yushan is also an idiot."
"They have all refined the innate spiritual treasures, but instead of joining forces with the Taiyi to surround and kill Ao Bing, they used the wisdom of Chaos Yao Chi to get themselves involved."
"Ji Gongnie is also a waste. Even with such overwhelming force, he could allow Rongdi to gain an opportunity for thirty years for nothing." Just as he was thinking about it, the voice of Empress Pingxin sounded again in Lingxiao Palace.
"I hold the Netherworld and bear the weight of the Netherworld. I am already extremely exhausted."
“Now, I have to serve as the guardian of the earth and bear the stigma of heaven and earth again.”
"Could it be that the gods are jealous of my sole control of the underworld and want to kill me with this?"
The voice of Empress Pingxin sounded slowly, but she stated very bluntly another prerequisite for wanting to be a god of protection - that is, to share the evil of the world. If one does not have this intention, then no matter how strong one is, or how good one's ability to govern the world is, one can only be a god of assistance, and cannot be a god of protection.
Among the gods, Zhang Bairen felt more and more bitter when he heard these words.
Once Empress Pingxin said this, the matter of this ominous stain on heaven and earth would become a matter of no return.
Obviously, when he was secretly contacting the gods and wanting them to publicly elect the Six Imperial Lords so as to make Yao Chi feel "betrayed" and panic, the Queen Mother, who held the power in Heaven after the Great Celestial Lord, was also not idle. She had secretly had extremely in-depth communication with the Queen Mother Pingxin who was in charge of the underworld, and they reached an extremely close cooperation with each other.
Otherwise, Empress Pingxin would never have exposed the ominous words of heaven and earth in front of all the gods.
After all, the filth of heaven and earth has always been a topic that cannot be discussed directly among the gods.
There has always been a difference between immortals and gods - gods hold the power of heaven and earth, and naturally they are also subject to the filth of heaven and earth.
Every god between heaven and earth, after becoming a god, will, to a certain extent, bear the evil of heaven and earth.
It’s just that the Great Celestial Lord Haotian, with his own strength, bore all the ominous filth between heaven and earth, so the gods were not disturbed by that ominous filth.
Therefore, after the Heavenly Court, all gods only needed to follow the laws of the Heavenly Court when doing things, without having to worry about the harsh criticism of all spirits - even if all spirits had grievances and hatred, their resentment would only be directed at the Great Heavenly Venerable, which would turn into the filth of heaven and earth and be attributed to him.
The same is true for the ghosts and gods in the underworld.
Part of the evil that they suffered from heaven and earth fell on Niangniang Pingxin, and the other part fell on the body of the Great Heavenly Venerable.
After the birth of the karma system, the injuries of the Great Celestial Lord worsened, so Yuanshi Tianzun, together with other saints, naturally withdrew from the theory of merit and karma. The so-called karma means that the immortals and gods must bear the consequences of their actions to a certain extent, which is another constraint on the immortals and gods besides the laws of heaven.
To a certain extent, the existence of this karma is equivalent to the Great Heavenly Venerable venting some of the ominous filth of heaven and earth that he has borne on his body, so as to relieve the pressure on the Great Heavenly Venerable.
Now that Empress Pingxin has made this known, the gods in Lingxiao Palace will have to respond to this topic, and those who are plotting against the Six Emperors will also have to respond to this topic.
This move was clearly that the Queen Mother set up a stage to put those powerful people who wanted to plot for the throne of the Emperor on it, and then Queen Pingxin came out and took away the ladder, making it impossible for these Emperors to step down.
Thinking of this, Zhang Bairen couldn't help but curse in his heart.
"Pingxin, Pingxin, what benefit did Yaochi give you that was worth your efforts for them?"
"The evil filth of heaven and earth, as long as I become the Lord of Heaven, I can still find a way to transfer the evil filth of heaven and earth to Haotian, then you latecomers can follow my example."
"At that time, everyone will be able to enjoy supreme power and be able to use the power of heaven and earth to improve their physical strength without worrying about the consequences of the ominous filth of heaven and earth."
"But why do you have to cause trouble for yourself?"
Zhang Bairen thought to himself that the gods in heaven were quite different from the heaven he used to live in.
Even the saints of today are slightly different from the saints he faced back then.
"Fortunately, Yuqing is still Yuqing."
Then, Zhang Bairen's dormant energy slowly blossomed and expanded in the Lingxiao Palace.
Finally, his figure completely appeared in the Lingxiao Palace, and then his eyes fell on Empress Pingxin.
"I cannot agree with what you said, Fellow Daoist Pingxin."
“It is said that one should bear the filth of heaven and earth and be the master of heaven and earth.”
"In the past, the Great Celestial Venerable was humiliated by the heaven and earth, so all the gods obeyed him and elected him as the Great Celestial Venerable."
"Although the Six Imperial Lords are not the Great Celestial Lords, they carry out the authority of the Great Celestial Lord in turn."
“Since you exercise the power of the Great Celestial Venerable and receive his respect, then isn’t it only natural that you should bear the bad karma of the Great Celestial Venerable?” Zhang Bairen spoke - when he said this, he also took advantage of a trick by attributing the bad karma of the world to the Great Celestial Venerable, rather than to the heaven and earth or to the gods.
"As for the concerns of fellow Taoist Pingxin, I think it is not a big deal."
"Even though you are the Lord of Earth, you are only acting on behalf of the Great Celestial Lord. You have not truly become the Great Celestial Lord. Therefore, the evil filth of heaven and earth that you have borne is only a small part of it."
"If you say that this is just a small part of the bad luck, you are deceiving yourself and others by saying that it is too much to bear."
Speaking of this, Zhang Bairen's words changed again - he had his own ideas.
Now, the topic of the stain of heaven and earth has been brought up by Empress Pingxin, so this topic cannot be avoided. The royal masters like them cannot escape the responsibility of bearing the ominous stain.
But carrying the ominous filth is one thing, and how much to carry is another.
It can't be that they exercise the power of the Great Celestial Lord but have to bear all the blame of heaven and earth that the Great Celestial Lord has borne?
And as long as they are sure that they, the Royal Lords, only bear a part of the filth of heaven and earth, then at that time, won’t it be up to them to decide how much filth of heaven and earth they bear?
"I just don't believe that you guys are really so selfless and willing to sacrifice yourself for others!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Bairen's voice sounded again, but it was directed directly at Empress Pingxin.
"I am the Lord of Heaven. Although I have to bear the brunt of the heaven and earth, for the sake of heaven and earth, for the sake of the great Lord of Heaven, I should shoulder the responsibility."
"Fellow Daoist Pingxin is the only one between heaven and earth who can be the ruler of the earth. Let fellow Daoist take a step back for the sake of heaven and earth, and share a little of the filth of heaven and earth for the Great Heavenly Venerable."
In his words, he seemed to be blaming Lady Pingxin for only caring about her own family's affairs, being ungrateful, and not even willing to bear a little bit of the filth of heaven and earth for the Great Heavenly Venerable.
At the same time, when he was saying that he had taken on the responsibility, the aura on his body was also spreading from the Lingxiao Palace to the outside of the Lingxiao Palace, and it was faintly forming a whole with the entire Heavenly Palace, the infinite stars between heaven and earth, and the endless starry sky - if it is said that Niangniang Pingxin, who is in charge of the underworld, naturally corresponds to the earth of heaven and earth, then what he showed at this moment was that he naturally corresponds to the sky of heaven and earth.
Just as he said, and as the previous Emperor Qinghua of Dongji said, for the position of the Lord of Heaven, no one between heaven and earth is more suitable than him.
Feeling this kind of change, the "young" gods in the Lingxiao Palace all seemed extremely surprised - such a body of power that could resonate with the Heavenly Court seemed to be a body of power that could form a coordination with every part of the Heavenly Court. Such an existence should come from the Heavenly Court and be a talent carefully cultivated by the Great Heavenly Venerable.
But why, before, so few people in heaven knew of his existence?
"I hope the queen will have mercy." Taiyi Zhenren, the Great Emperor Qinghua of the East, also bowed to the queen Pingxin.
It is clearly the most supreme position between heaven and earth, a position more respected than the Lord of the Underworld in today's era, and an authority that some people try their best to obtain. But to Empress Pingxin, this authority is not cared about at all, and is even like a burden.
The ancient Buddha Dipamkara, who came representing Buddhism, and several great Bodhisattvas also bowed to Niangniang Pingxin.
"I also beg the Queen to have mercy and become the Lord of the Earth to balance heaven and earth."
For both Buddhism and Taoism, the six emotions of the emperors are both public-spirited and self-interested.
——Public-mindedness is naturally for the smooth operation of the entire world in the era of 'losing Haotian'.
As for selfishness, it lies in the netherworld.
Empress Pingxin is already the ruler of the underworld - if she becomes the Lord of Earth and controls the operation of heaven and earth, then her energy will naturally be diverted from the underworld to the entire heaven and earth.
At that time, what she needs to consider more is the balance of heaven and earth, rather than the balance of the underworld.
In this way, many flaws will appear in the underworld.
The Buddhist and Taoist schools, and even the current Heavenly Court, all have the opportunity to truly intervene in the underworld and take control of the underworld.
Controlling the underworld and interfering with the comings and goings of souls... no one knows better than them what significance this has for the inheritance of Taoism.
Take Buddhism for example. If they had this ability, and wanted to pass on their teachings to the human race, why did they send countless Buddhists to the Central Region as slaves when King Yi went on the Western Expedition? In this way, they wanted to leave traces of Brahma and Buddhism in the bloodline inheritance of the human race from generation to generation?
They only need to let their disciples reincarnate into the human race and integrate their own Taoist tradition with the human race's doctrines. In this way, their Taoist tradition will naturally take root among the human race.
Of course, Empress Pingxin knew their plans very well.
She had already planned for this.
Previously, when the Queen Mother found her about the matter of the Six Emperors and discussed the pros and cons with her, she had already discussed the specific response with the Queen Mother.
Internally, the Great Heavenly Lord was seriously injured, and the several saints between heaven and earth could be said to have completely lost their checks and balances.
In addition to the previous grand move of Brahma transforming into Buddhism, the two saints, along with many Daluo, passed away together - not to mention the saints, but the souls of those Daluo of Brahma fell into the underworld, and it was inevitable that they would have an impact on the underworld.
Outside, the underworlds of several other great worlds have also been entangled with the underworld of Pangu's world and eroded each other.
Under such circumstances, it can be said that it is an inevitable trend for the saints' Taoism to fall into the underworld and interfere with the authority of the underworld, turning heaven and earth, life and death into a complete whole.
Even if Empress Pingxin really turned into a saint, she would not be able to stop this.
Therefore, after discussing with Queen Mother Wang, the decision made by Queen Pingxin was to avoid everything completely and to observe and manage the affairs of the underworld.
Isn’t the saint’s tradition about entering the underworld?
Then let you come in directly.
At the same time, in addition to the two saintly sects, the power of Heaven is introduced - if other great masters want to join the game, they can also intervene in the underworld in the name of Heaven.
At that time, the affairs of the underworld will be jointly presided over by Xuanmen, Buddhism, and Heaven, and the three parties will check and balance each other.
These most original and ancient ghosts and gods of the underworld do not interfere in the specific affairs of the underworld, but they must monitor the operation of the underworld and discipline the new ghosts and gods of the underworld as monitors and judges.
In this way, although the operation of the Netherworld will inevitably be affected, the impact can be as small as possible so as not to suddenly get out of control.
As for whether Empress Pingxin would allow the ghosts and gods of the netherworld to take advantage of her energy after becoming the Lord of Earth because she focuses on heaven and earth, Queen Mother Wang also discussed this with Empress Pingxin - at that time, Empress Pingxin would specially differentiate an incarnation to serve as the Lord of Earth.
And this Lord of Earth will be a 'public' vest, which will be taken turns by some powerful goddesses between heaven and earth to maintain the balance of heaven and earth.
Just like the original ghosts and gods in the Youmeng Underworld, the Lord of Earth, even if he achieves success, will not hold the power over heaven and earth - but he will serve as a supervisor of the other Lords.
In this way, it is ensured that the other imperial masters, when taking turns to exercise authority, will not form a tacit understanding with each other and try every possible means to return the ominous filth of heaven and earth to the body of the Great Celestial Lord.
At the same time, its existence can also ensure the "smooth handover" between the other royal masters.
As for Empress Pingxin herself, most of her energy, or even her main energy, will still be focused on the Netherworld to ensure that nothing unexpected happens.
In the midst of their own thoughts, Niangniang Pingxin finally took up the position of Lord of the Earth after three requests from the gods and the Buddhists and Taoists.
Said: Follow the example of Heaven and emulate Hou Tu Huang Di Ji.
Taking advantage of the transformation of Empress Pingxin into Hou Tu, Zhang Bairen also successfully transformed into the Lord of Heaven.
Said: The Supreme Jade Emperor of the Golden Palace.
