Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 816: Temporary Peace in the North Sea
One life two, two beget three, three beget all things.

Countless years later, in this increasingly silent world, the first person to attain enlightenment, Zhao Gongming, attained enlightenment. It can be said to be a coincidence.

The second person who attained enlightenment, Taiyi Zhenren, can also be regarded as the response of the fortune of the Chan sect after he seized the authority of the Chan sect.

So what about the third person who attained enlightenment, Azure Dragon Ao Bing?

These many Daluo and countless Taiyi were all thinking about it - especially when they found out that the three people who had attained enlightenment and the three times they had attained enlightenment were all related to Ao Bing, the thoughts in their hearts became even more complicated.

Countless people were thinking and pondering.

"Heavenly rules, Heavenly rules... Is it possible that the power of heaven and earth moves in such a situation?"

In the end, everyone was certain that the trend of this murderous disaster must be above the rules of heaven!

With such a mentality, these countless Qigong practitioners have different attitudes towards the heavenly rules.

From the initial rejection, then keeping a distance, to now, when Ao Bing achieved enlightenment, countless Taiyi have been thinking about going to the Temple of the Great Lord of Justice. Even those Daluo who do not take the Heavenly Rules seriously are also considering whether to transfer their own disciples to the Temple of the Great Lord of Justice to seek opportunities.

Similarly, at this time, more Daluo were feeling fortunate in their hearts - fortunately, someone had suggested earlier that the Great Lord of Justice should not be allowed to take sole control of the heavenly rules, so that everyone now has more opportunities to choose.

After all, among the contents of the heavenly rules, the living punishment other than the death penalty is the more complicated, more changeable, and more laborious.

If the general trend of the world falls on the heavenly rules, then there is no doubt that the share of the general trend carried by the life and death punishment will definitely exceed the death law!
"We should formulate the rules of life punishment as soon as possible - even if they are imperfect, they should be released as soon as possible so that all immortals will have a standard to follow."

"As for its content, there are omissions. Just like the death law, it can be supplemented later." A Daluo spoke slowly.

The other Daluo also nodded.

"Brother Dao, what you said makes sense. A life sentence is worse than a death sentence. Even if there are mistakes, there is still room for correction."

"Your Majesty the Jade Emperor can establish a department to observe the customs of heaven and earth and investigate the human feelings of all spirits. Whenever the spirits of heaven and earth have any feelings, confusion, or confusion about the laws of life, punishment, and death, they can report all these situations one by one."

"We can use this to supplement and adjust the Heavenly Rules, and then we will have a basis to rely on."

"Daoyou, what you said is truly kind." Another Daluo sighed, "We Daluo, even if we try our best to perceive the heaven and earth and meet all spirits, we are still Daluo after all."

"From our perspective, there is a difference between those ordinary Qigong practitioners and the common people."

"What we consider to be difficult problems may just be a joke to them."

"What we consider to be normal things may be considered unbearable by others."

“Instead of wasting my time and energy thinking about everything, I should just establish a framework and fill it in with the wisdom of all living beings.”

"First, pass down the general outline. Later, if anyone asks about the details, we will discuss the details with them."

"Whatever you discover, you add."

"In this way, year after year, day after day, one day, this heavenly rule will be perfected."

“But I am afraid that if the Heavenly Rules are incomplete, some people will use the fact that there are no prohibitions in the Heavenly Rules as an excuse to do whatever they want and harm all living beings. In the end, they will blame the Heaven and Earth and commit a crime against the Heavenly Court.” After a while, Daluo spoke again, and his words showed worry.

The Heavenly Rules represent not only authority but also responsibility.

In the past, Heaven had never established heavenly rules. Therefore, although Heaven was located above the clouds, the creatures between heaven and earth only regarded Heaven as a larger mountain rather than an existence that managed heaven and earth. Heaven had never made such a declaration to the creatures between heaven and earth.

In this case, no matter what happens between heaven and earth, it has nothing to do with the Heavenly Court, and the living beings between heaven and earth cannot blame the Heavenly Court for it - this is why many people think that the Jade Emperor is irresponsible.

Because he dared not and was unwilling to take such responsibility.

And now, driven by the trend of the times, the Heavenly Rules have come into being, and the Heavenly Court has also used this to declare its rule over the world - and thus, the extremely heavy responsibility naturally comes with it.

——The Daluo who spoke was obviously the one who was closer to the Jade Emperor. He was reminding the Jade Emperor in this way whether he was ready to take on this responsibility.

It would be fine if the Heavenly Rules were perfect, but if they were not perfect, the consequences and the impact on Heaven would definitely be greater than what the Jade Emperor could imagine.

Under the dissatisfaction and resentment of countless living beings, even the Dao Fruit of Daluo will collapse!

“Then the Emperor of Heaven will need to step forward and alert all gods, asking them to pay more attention to the changes between heaven and earth and to supplement the Heavenly Rules in a timely manner to eliminate the resentment of all living beings.” Daluo, who proposed to introduce the Heavenly Rules first, said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"As it should be."

"However, before discussing this issue, shouldn't we first discuss the framework of the Heavenly Rules?"

"Is this law of heaven like a dead letter, covering the whole world with one word, or is it slightly flexible, so that different regions and different races have their own distinctions?"

"Or, the Taoist sects of all of you Taoists have their own laws. What if the Heavenly Rules conflict with the laws of your Taoist sects?"

……

On earth, Ao Bing, sitting on the clouds, has already shifted his gaze away from the battle.

During the battle in the North Sea, after suffering losses at the beginning, the army under Wen Zhong's command gradually revealed their true nature as the Qigong practitioners on Yuan Futong's side were either forced to step into the boundary space to fight, or died directly in the boundary space, or simply fled the battlefield.

That is the disharmony and disharmony that comes from the level of the origin of life.

——Although the Qigong practitioners of the Immortal Demon Thief have accumulated countless years of experience at this level, those accumulations are ultimately on paper, and their research has never existed for the purpose of large-scale wars.

And in the North Sea, it was the first time since the Immortal Demon Thief appeared in the world that he used his achievements on a large scale on the battlefield of the human world.

This kind of result from paper to reality is bound to require a lot of time and lives to adjust the details, so that these things can be perfected - but it is obvious that this sudden war did not give those immortal demon thieves time to adjust.

At the beginning of the war, those soldiers who were hastily mobilized were still able to rely on the magic power of the Taiyi immortals to maintain their disdain and prevent the inhumane things in them from conflicting with the power of humanity.

But as the battle progressed, and as the Taiyi Qigong practitioners on Yuan Futong's side withdrew one by one, the problems of those refined armored soldiers gradually emerged.

Then, the battle line that was advancing rapidly suddenly collapsed without anyone noticing.

When the princes on Yuan Futong's side noticed this situation and wanted to retreat gradually, they were shocked to find that their retreat route had been cut off by Wen Zhong.

Twenty-eight nodes were stuck at almost every node where Yuan Futong’s army retreated.

And when Yuan Futong's army collapsed, based on these twenty-eight nodes, an incomparably large formation, between the human military formation and the immortal magic formation, was unfolded.

The only mystery of this formation is that it draws in the fog.

This fog is not an ordinary fog - it is the fog that was caused by Chiyou when Xuanyuan and Chiyou were fighting each other.

In the fog, not being able to tell north, south, east, or west is just the most basic thing.

What’s even more mysterious is that the fog confuses perception and accelerates the consumption and loss of living beings’ energy and spirit.

In this way, the creatures in the fog have no idea where they are, how far they have traveled, how far they are from their friendly forces, how many enemy forces are around them, etc...

During the fight for supremacy, Chi You spread out this fog, which covered an area of ​​3.8 million miles. In the fog, the soldiers, immortals and gods under Xuanyuan's command were completely confused and could no longer get out.

If it weren't for each other, Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi built the south-pointing chariot, remotely sensed the stars in the sky, and combined them with the Northern and Southern Dippers, and had the divinity above the stars to force the power of the stars into the fog, and evolve the constellations in the fog so that the south-pointing chariot could move, then it is possible that the elite troops under Xuanyuan, along with the immortal gods who helped Xuanyuan, would have been completely wiped out by Chiyou.

At this time, Wen Zhong used the Jiejiao formation to combine with the general formation to induced fog. Although the area was only 120,000 miles, it was far from enough to compare with the 3.8 million miles of Chiyou's fog. But in this battlefield where even Taiyi could hardly interfere, the fog of 120,000 miles was enough to cut off the return route of Yuan Futong's army.

"The war is about to end." Looking at the army under Yuan Futong rushing into the thick fog in the chaos and then walking out of the fog, Ao Bing knew that this war had come to an end.

The army's morale was already low, and after several trips back and forth in the thick fog, their physical strength was depleted, and their morale was almost on the verge of collapse.

Especially when the Qigong practitioners on Wen Zhong's side, namely the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and others came out from the boundary space, they each showed their presence among the military formations.

Then, Wen Zhong communicated with humanity again and asked humanity to show all those strange-looking humanoid creatures in Yuan Futong's camp to humanity.

As a result, Yuan Futong's army and its relationship with humanity were also cut off.

At this moment, the morale, which had already fallen to the bottom, collapsed completely.

The little bit of strength that he had originally been able to lift up disappeared completely in an instant.

The pain in the body, which was previously bearable due to the conflict of origins, turned into unbearable torture at this moment.

Even the mecha connected to his body became an extremely heavy burden.

"We lost!" In the thick fog, Yuan Futong watched the signals that were connecting him to the troops disappear one by one, and he became limp and powerless.

"Sir, as long as people are still alive, there is still hope."

"With the territory of Beihai, even if we lose this time, we still have a chance to make a comeback - Wen Zhong can't stay here forever!"

"After this time, the transformation of the soldiers by the Immortal Cottage of Immortality will be even more successful!"

“My lord, don’t give up easily!” Taiyi Taoist appeared beside Yuan Futong.

He is the ancestor of the Yuan family. After Yuan Futong rebelled, he has been guarding Yuan Futong's side. He has never participated in the wars in the human world, nor has he gone to the space world to fight. His responsibility is to protect Yuan Futong, nothing more.

"There is no chance." Yuan Futong shook his head. "Most of the elite soldiers of the 72 countries in the North Sea are here."

"Without these elite soldiers, the seventy-two nations will have no choice but to defend themselves and will no longer have the strength to advance."

"Even if I leave here, the Seventy-two Nations will make me give them an explanation."

"Besides me and the Beihai Nation, who else can bear the consequences of this great defeat?"

"If I leave alive, the Kingdom of the North Sea will be destroyed, and the ancestral temples will have difficulty continuing."

"If I die in battle here, those princes will still show mercy to the North Sea Nation because of my death in battle - at least, the ancestral temple can be saved."

Yuan Futong calmed down.

"Ancestor, it's time for me to beat the drum."

"I want to gather my generals here."

"Although I can't tell north from south under this Chiyou fog, I am a lord among the mortals. The sound of my drum can penetrate the fog and give directions to the clans trapped in the fog, and gather them here!"

"Here is the place of the decisive battle!"

"Ancestor, please leave. I will die here, but the descendants of the Beihai lineage still need your protection."

As he spoke, Yuan Futong had already taken out his seal and entrusted it to the Taiyi in front of him. Then he stepped onto the high platform where the generals gathered, cut his palm with the sword at his waist, smeared his own blood of princes on the war drum and drumstick, and then struck the big drum in front of him with force.

Then, the extremely heavy drum sounded, carrying the power to move people's hearts.

Amid the drums of war, even those who wanted to completely abandon the "humanity" of the North Sea seemed to hesitate for a moment.

At this moment of hesitation, the sound of the war drums had already followed the guidance of the blood and surpassed the guidance of the Chiyou fog - or in other words, even the Chiyou fog was unwilling to conceal the determination of this North Sea lord to fight to the death, and allowed the sound of the war drums beaten by the lord's blood to spread in the fog, and in this fog, guide the direction for the army that had lost its way.

"Yuan Futong, since you have such intention, why don't I, the Grand Master, fulfill your wish?"

"If you want a decisive battle, then let's have a decisive battle!" Amid the sound of Yuan Futong's war drum, Wen Zhong also beat the war drum in his hand.

Two completely different war drums shook heaven and earth in an instant.

——Yuan Futong’s war drum is like an underground fire, rising from beneath the mountains and the earth, carrying everything with incomparable awareness.

Wen Zhong's war drum was like thunder, rising from the sky and falling with great force, sweeping away everything with its cold and grim attitude.

The intersection of the two war drum sounds is the collision of heaven and earth, the fusion of thunder and fire.

And that abundant humanity, in the sound of war drums, once again "accepted" Beihai - even though the human parts of these Beihai soldiers were few, their hearts still belonged to mortals.

Amid the intersection of heavenly thunder and earthly fire, there was an extremely brutal fight. During the fight, the Chiyou fog was dyed with a layer of blood - and in that blood, there was an incomparably huge will, which seemed to be slowly awakening.

In this way, after another half a month, the fighting here finally came to an end.

On Yuan Futong's side in Beihai, except for a few princes who broke out from here with their personal soldiers, the other princes and countless troops all died here together with Yuan Futong.

After the Chiyou fog dissipated with a glow of blood, the army still on the battlefield was filled with such terrifying murderous aura that the sky above the army was turned into a forbidden place for immortals and gods - even the friendly Taiyi who passed by here had his clouds scattered by the murderous aura that soared into the sky.

After this great battle, the mountains and rivers in the area spontaneously deflected without any influence from any Qigong practitioners.

“From now on, those Qigong practitioners between heaven and earth who want to study the way of killing and condense the Qi of killing will probably have to come to this North Sea.” When Wen Zhong led his army across the battlefield and continued to head towards the North Sea countries, the figure of the Golden Spirit Mother appeared beside Ao Bing. Her eyes were also fixed on the huge piece of bright red in front of her, thinking about the possibility of putting her Golden Cloud Crown into it for nourishment.

It was a blood-red maple forest that stretched for tens of thousands of miles.

In the maple forest, every maple leaf exudes a sharp aura like a weapon.

Between the maple trees, there is Chiyou's mist.

At the edge of the blood maple forest, some Taiyis with quick legs and feet had brought their disciples here for the trial...

"Back then, Xuanyuan and Chiyou were competing. After Chiyou was defeated, his body was dismembered and suppressed. It is said that the place where his body was suppressed is a forest of blood maples."

"Now, this North Sea is also covered with blood maples."

"Fellow Daoist Qinglong, do you think this is related to Chi You?"

Chi You, that is one of the greatest terrors between heaven and earth, and also one of the greatest secrets between heaven and earth.

Chi You was dismembered and suppressed - but, except for the few emperors of the human race, even the Daluo did not know where Chi You's body was suppressed.

Even no one can be sure whether Chiyou was dismembered or suppressed.

No one has ever seen the legendary Blood Maple Forest.

However, at this moment, the legendary blood maple forest suddenly appeared behind the battlefield of the decisive battle. Moreover, before its appearance, Wen Zhong happened to have stirred up the fog of Chiyou here - it is hard not to suspect that the appearance of this blood maple forest is related to Chiyou.

At the same time, it is difficult to suppress the desire to explore the blood maple forest and search for the 'remains of Chiyou' that may exist here.

"The North Sea Dragon Palace is adjacent to this place. If this place is really related to Chi You, I'm afraid that after now, the North Sea Dragon Clan will never have peace."

As the Golden Spirit Mother spoke, she brought Ao Bing another piece of news - the Jiuli tribe that still existed in the human world, the descendants of Chiyou, all went to Chaoge to pay homage to the Human King after the manifestation of the Blood Maple Forest, and then sent several elders to the North Sea.

"The affairs of Chi You have nothing to do with me for the time being." Ao Bing's gaze passed through the blood maple forest and fell on the more distant North Sea.

Compared to the blood maple forest, the situation in the North Sea is what he is more concerned about.

Although the battle was won, it was only the human world that won the complete victory - and at the level of Qigong practitioners, countless immortal demon thieves and those evil souls, relying on the relationship with the demon clan, escaped from the boundary space, far away to the North Sea, and stepped into the territory of the demon clan.

In other words, this time the crackdown on the immortal evil thieves and the evil spirits was not actually successful.

"But the North Sea will be troubled from now on. Perhaps I will have to suppress it in the North Sea for a while." To suppress the North Sea is to ensure the stability of the North Sea Dragon Palace, and at the same time to suppress the North Sea territory - those immortal demons and soul-eating evildoers, after they fall into the North Sea, there will definitely be no stability, and the already chaotic North Sea will definitely become even more chaotic.

What Ao Bing needs to do is to lock this chaos within the North Sea.

"Fellow Daoist, are you not going back to Heaven?" The Golden Spirit Mother looked at Ao Bing in surprise.

Although the battle of the North Sea was not completely successful, the heavenly rules have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the authority of the Heavenly Court has begun to manifest itself between heaven and earth. Therefore, after the decisive battle between Wen Zhong and Yuan Futong, the immortal officials and generals of the Heavenly Court have all returned to the Heavenly Court with injuries, waiting for the "reward" from the Jade Emperor.

In the upcoming Lingxiao Palace Conference, Ao Bing is undoubtedly the protagonist who deserves it...

In addition to the Lingxiao Palace conference that will be held again, there is also the Heavenly Prison that is about to be completed, and the formation for testing one's character that has been prepared in front of the gate of the Temple of the Great Lord of Justice, and is also waiting for Ao Bing to return and preside over it.

At this time, Ao Bing's response was that he did not plan to return to heaven?

"I can also preside over matters concerning the magic array in the North Sea."

"As for the celebration, I'm afraid that if there's no one to suppress them in the North Sea, those evildoers will cause a huge commotion in the North Sea when the Heavenly Court is celebrating."

"As for letting someone else guard the North Sea - I'm not afraid to tell Brother Jin Ling that I really don't trust anyone else on this matter!"

In this great battle in the North Sea, the majesty of the heavenly rules was established, and Ao Bing even attained enlightenment in full view of the public. The Azure Dragon's Qi and the Azure Dragon's image merged and hung above the sky. Such momentum was unparalleled at the time.

And then, the immortals and gods between heaven and earth could all guess what Ao Bing was going to do - it was nothing more than cleaning up the residence of the Lord of Justice, selecting the patrol angels, and "settling" the old accounts.

At this time, there were countless immortals and gods waiting for an opportunity to give Ao Bing a hard time and suppress his limelight - it would be better if they could cause some chaos between heaven and earth in a reasonable and legal way so that Ao Bing would have no time to take care of other things.

Therefore, Ao Bing believed that even if he personally stayed in the North Sea Dragon Palace, the possibility of problems in the North Sea would still be very high - if he left the North Sea, it would not only be the North Sea that would have problems, but even the entire North Sea Dragon Palace would be dragged into the abyss.

"That being said, this is a rare celebration in Heaven. If you don't go, I'm afraid the Jade Emperor will be embarrassed."

"Brother Dao, rest assured. I have sent a letter to the Emperor of Heaven, informing him of my considerations in the North Sea."

"The Emperor of Heaven also allowed me to sit in the North Sea Dragon Court with him, and only use the aura of the Azure Dragon to manifest my incarnation and stand in the Heavenly Court."

"You must know that the Emperor of Heaven is also waiting for someone to disturb the situation in the North Sea so as to establish his authority in the Heavenly Court." Ao Bing said.

To quell the rebellion - In addition to those immortal demons and thieves, it is natural that some immortal officials and generals also need to be dealt with within the Heavenly Court. Otherwise, it will not be enough to demonstrate the trend of renewal after the implementation of the Heavenly Rules.

To deal with those immortal officials and generals, a reasonable excuse is needed - digging up old accounts will only make everyone feel insecure.

But if before revisiting the past, some immortal officials and gods tried to disturb the North Sea...

"You and the Jade Emperor get along well with each other as king and subject." Upon hearing this, Holy Mother Jin Ling raised her eyebrows with an inexplicable look on her face, and then she suddenly smiled.

"By the way, fellow Daoist, before you go to the Dragon Palace in the North Sea, I'm afraid you still have a trouble to deal with." As soon as the words fell, a sword light came straight towards Ao Bing.
