Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning
Chapter 885 5 Finger Mountain, Xiangyang City
Chapter 885 Wuzhi Mountain, Xiangyang City
"Old Taoist Bo Ling, nice to meet you, White Tiger Heavenly Lord." Not long after stepping out of the Dragon Palace, a Taoist figure appeared in front of Li Nu.
The Taoist steps on the sun and the moon, and embellishes the mountains and rivers between his sleeves.
"It's rare for the Heavenly Lord to step out of the East Sea. May I ask the Heavenly Lord, has the Azure Dragon Heavenly Lord awakened?"
This Daluo named Boling did not show any Daluo reserve in his words. He seemed unusually calm and composed, and bowed to Li Nu.
"Li Nu greets the Taoist Master." Li Nu avoided the Taoist master's bow and returned the greeting.
Neither Ao Bing himself nor Li Nu thought that they could hide the fact that Ao Bing showed up in Pantian from others.
After all, during the past ten thousand years, when Ao Bing was still unconscious, there was always at least one top-notch Taiyi guarding the East China Sea abyss, never leaving - either Li Nu, Princess Longji, or Nezha.
Now, Nezha has returned to Zhenhai Tower, Li Nu has also stepped out of Yuanlingque, and Princess Longji is still in Lingxiao Palace, watching the dragon clan's defense - even though at this moment, the aura belonging to Ao Bing between heaven and earth has not fluctuated at all, but anyone can judge that Ao Bing has "woken up" to a certain extent.
As for why no one noticed Ao Bing's "awakening" at all - for a strong man who is about to reach Daluo, or even has already reached Daluo, isn't this normal?
Therefore, when they stepped out of Yuanlingque, Li Nu and Ao Bing were already prepared to deal with those Daluo who would come to their doorstep.
"The Dao Zun came to visit, I think it's because of the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty."
Li Nu pointed to the sky - the huge ritual was holding up the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty.
Many marks of Daluo are faintly visible in the jade book, which is about to turn the jade book into a spiritual treasure that is more powerful than the List of Gods that restrains all gods.
At the beginning, Ao Bing's idea about the jade book was that it was a companion treasure that matched him perfectly, and it could complement his Dao Fruit. He could even use this treasure to exert a certain control over those Daluo.
But after a trip to Yuantian, Ao Bing had a new understanding of the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty.
The power of this treasure is indeed strong.
But the more this is the case, the more this treasure cannot be monopolized by him - this Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty should be jointly controlled by those Daluo who have signed the list, including him.
Those Daluo people can get rewards from this Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty.
Those trustworthy people between heaven and earth can also receive feedback through this Jade Book of Trust and Loyalty.
This is the right way - to put it bluntly, trust and faith should come from the heart, and not be constrained by anything.
What needs to be restrained does not come from moral integrity, but from legal standards.
However, between heaven and earth, trust and loyalty need a guarantee - and then, the Jade Book of Trust and Loyalty came into being.
But even so, the existence of this Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty should only serve as a guarantee, and not a means of manipulation.
The most ideal result is that after all the Daluo have signed the Jade Book of Faith, no one will pay attention to it, and as time goes by, let the Jade Book of Faith dissolve between heaven and earth - at that time, the words "faith" and "faith" will be completely integrated into everyone's heart, into the nature and instinct of all living things, and no longer need any constraints, let alone any guarantees.
This is the true way of faith and righteousness.
If Ao Bing were to take sole control of the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty, the only consequence would be that the Daluo who had signed the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty would go to great lengths to find and test the loopholes in the book - this would go against the existence of the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty.
Let everyone believe in faith and loyalty, instead of letting Ao Bing alone hold faith and loyalty.
This is the essence of faith and the path to promote faith.
Upon hearing this, Daoist Master Bo Ling was also stunned.
It took a long time before I came to my senses.
"What the Heavenly Lord said shows his morality." Taoist Master Boling said, convinced.
After a moment, these words had spread throughout the world and reached the ears of all Daluo.
No matter those who had signed the Jade Book or those who had not, they all knew Ao Bing's words about "faith and trust" dictated by Li Nu.
While recalling these words in their minds, the great masters between heaven and earth turned their gazes to the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty.
At the beginning, as to whether or not to be listed in the Jade Book of Loyalty, each of these Daluo had their own opinions - and among their opinions, there was a kind of speech.
That is, whether Ao Bing, who is in charge of faith and trust, can be trusted.
The ritual of faith and trust was a ritual that Ao Bing developed between heaven and earth in order to "demonstrate" his own trustworthiness. Ao Bing used his own path as a guarantee of this faith and trust.
But even so, there are still many people who question it.
But now, all those doubts are meaningless.
The Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty is not held by Ao Bing alone, but is held by all the Daluo.
For those Daluo whose names are listed in the Jade Book, what they need to consider above "faith and trustworthiness" is no longer "whether Ao Bing is trustworthy to them", but "whether they themselves are trustworthy to them".
Compared with the previous question, the latter question is obviously easier to answer.
After all, who would not believe in himself if he could become Daluo?
Many Daluo calmed down their minds.
They could all clearly feel that after these words, the power on the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty was slowly expanding - and the expanded parts were waiting for the Daluo to leave their marks.
This is enough to prove that the words relayed by Li Nu were exactly what Ao Bing really thought, and not a compromise made by Ao Bing due to the current situation.
"If I had known this, why hasn't this Jade Book been signed until now?" Those Daluo who hadn't signed the Jade Book yet also left their marks on the Jade Book one after another - Ao Bing's words gave them a better reason to sign the Jade Book.
Meanwhile, in the Lingxiao Palace of the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor looked at those Daluo whose names were listed in the Jade Book, and they placed their marks on the 'blank' spaces left by the Jade Book, turning their own existences into a part of this trust. Looking at this scene, he sneered, and then his expression turned gloomy in an instant.
He knew very well what the transformation of the Way of Faith and Loyalty meant - it meant that from this moment on, a system with the Jade Book of Faith and Loyalty as its bond, covering all the Daluo between heaven and earth, was formed between heaven and earth.
And in this system, Ao Bing's existence has unquestionable influence.
He, the head of the Six Imperial Gods who exercises the authority of the Emperor of Heaven, is within this system, and in this system, he is "not worth mentioning".
"You are so arrogant, but you still want to fight for the authority of the Emperor of Heaven?"
While the Jade Emperor was pondering, the Four Dragon Kings, who were defending themselves, also left the Lingxiao Palace - at this point, what was the point in defending themselves?
To put it bluntly, given the current situation of the dragon clan, if those real dragons really had problems, the Jade Emperor would have given orders to capture those dragon gods long ago. Even if they could not be killed, they could have taken away their authority to control wind and rain and direct the river water. How could the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas have a chance to go to heaven to defend themselves?
……
After sending away those Daluo, a few steps later, Li Nu's figure appeared on the Five Finger Mountain.
"Is this the Five Finger Mountain?" Under the magic of the Kunlun Mirror, Ao Bing also borrowed Li Nu's gaze to observe the majestic Five Finger Mountain under his feet.
This is a sacred mountain transformed by the magical power of Buddhism, and its five fingers suppress the five directions and five shapes respectively.
The environment in the mountains is desolate and silent, without a trace of life.
Just by looking at the Five Finger Mountain, with its formless and all-locked aura, one can tell that the Buddha's Sakyamuni has already ascended to Daluo.
And on the mountain, there is a golden note.
That golden note, while suppressing the Five Finger Mountain, also connected all parts of the Heavenly Palace.
As long as the immortals and gods in heaven are dissatisfied with the monkey at the foot of the mountain, the golden note can sense their dissatisfaction and turn it into various punishments to be imposed on the monkey.
Obviously, the powerful Buddhists knew that after the havoc in Heaven, even if they had already arranged everything, those immortals and gods who served as stepping stones for the monkey would more or less be dissatisfied with the monkey. The time the monkey was suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain was both an explanation to Heaven and a chance for those immortals and gods to vent their dissatisfaction.
Otherwise, the dissatisfaction in the monkey's heart will sooner or later turn into resentment, causing twists and turns in the monkey's path.
Just from this one incident, we can see that Buddhism really put a lot of effort into this monkey.
When Li Nu stepped into the Five Finger Mountain, there was a jailer at the foot of the mountain. Acting on the dissatisfaction gathered from the golden sticker, he forced copper juice and iron balls into the monkey's mouth. Next to him, there was someone holding a wind and thunder whip and hitting the monkey on the head.
——Even if you have become an indestructible body in Laojun's furnace, the indestructible body only means indestructibility, not invulnerability.
"Greetings to the White Tiger Lord." While the monkey was grinning, the land god, Jia Lan and others in the mountain had already revealed their figures, bowed in front of Li Nu, with expressions of embarrassment on their faces.
"Tianzun, this is a forbidden area..."
"This child came out of my cave, and we have a bit of a mother-son relationship. Now he is being tortured here, and I want to take a look. Is that not allowed?"
"The Heavenly Venerable is naturally free to come and go." After a moment, the golden sticker swayed slightly, and there were orders from the Buddhist sect and the Heavenly Court. The expression of Jia Lan in the mountain became more and more embarrassed. "But, the Heavenly Venerable also knows that the Great Sage is here to be punished. We are afraid that the Heavenly Venerable will not be able to bear to see it."
The relationship between Li Nu and the Monkey King is no secret.
——When the monkey went up to the Immortal Execution Platform, one of the things he did was to steal the peaches and ruin the Peach Festival.
For this reason, when Princess Longji and the others were arguing with the Four Invisible Seals, they mentioned that the Peach Garden was the private property of the Queen Mother of the West, not the property of the Heavenly Palace.
Even if Sun Wukong destroyed the peaches, it was his own descendant who destroyed his own treasure. It was a family affair and had nothing to do with the laws of heaven.
"I have seen more punishments than you can imagine." Li Nu waved her hand, shooed these people away, and then moved along the mountain.
After a moment, the monkey's head and half of its shoulder at the foot of the mountain appeared in front of Li Nu.
"Godmother, eh, godmother."
"Here I am, here!"
When the jailer faded away, the monkey, who was still squeaking under the thunder whip, raised his eyes and saw Li Nu not far away, and immediately screamed.
"You monkey, do you know you are wrong?" Li Nu sat down next to the monkey, patted his head, and combed the hair on his head and face.
"Godmother, I only regret my recklessness, but I don't regret causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace."
"If I come earlier, I will still make a scene in the Heavenly Palace."
"How to say?"
"Godmother, you should know that Huo Piaoyao and I have quite a similar interest. The iron spear in his hand and the mount under his command were all obtained by me on his behalf."
"Afterwards, he fell to that vicious curse."
"I was very unwilling, so I chased after him all the way."
“But in the end, I vaguely realized that the source of the spell was said to be the Wolf Mountain, but in fact, it was somewhat related to the Heavenly Palace.”
"However, the Heavenly Palace is so complicated and confusing. I am in the Heavenly Palace and all I see is a fog."
"After several unsuccessful attempts, I became violent and caused a big commotion in the Heavenly Palace."
"I thought that making such a commotion would eventually expose the dark side of the Heavenly Court, but I never thought that not only would it not work, but I would end up getting myself involved."
As the Monkey King spoke, he moved his exposed shoulder and neck with difficulty.
"Is there any evidence?" Even Li Nu was shocked by these words.
She had hardly ever returned to Heaven since Ao Bing had fallen asleep. The monkey, who was known for her chatterbox, was extremely tight-lipped about this matter.
Therefore, even Li Nu did not know until now that there was such a secret hidden in the monkey's rampage in the Heavenly Palace.
"If there was evidence, why would I have gone to such lengths?" Monkey's face showed some dejection. "It's just a hunch."
"Whether it's Huo Piaoyao's death or the source of the curse, it's just my intuition."
"However, when I was causing trouble in Heaven, I saw that many immortals were reserved - I guess some of them had the same intuition as me."
“The era of Haotian is not far away yet - although the Jade Emperor’s talent is not as good as that of Haotian Great Lord, no matter what, the situation will not collapse to this extent in just ten thousand years, and the heaven will not become a chessboard.” Li Nu tapped the monkey’s head with her fingers.
"Godmother, before I became enlightened, I wasted a long time in the human world. I know that learning is difficult, and it is easy to be upright, but it only takes a moment to learn to be bad."
"To my godmother, the Jade Emperor's reign was only ten thousand years - but in reality, during these ten thousand years, the changes in people's hearts were more than earth-shaking."
"Godmother, you should be careful too."
"By the way, godmother, why did you suddenly come to the Five Finger Mountain to see me instead of staying in the abyss of the East China Sea?"
"Could it be that when I was suppressed here, something else happened between heaven and earth?"
The monkey shook his head and quickly put the past incident of the havoc in Heaven behind him.
"The world is ever-changing."
"There are many heroes in the world."
"Of course, I want to take a look at the human world."
"As for you, the monkey, I thought that since you have come out, it would be okay for me to come and see you." Li Nu then told her about the changes that happened in the world after the monkey was suppressed.
Listening to the magnificent words spoken by Li Nu, the monkey's eyes revealed an unprecedented brilliance, and then, it became extremely gloomy.
"In the Five Finger Mountain, the news was cut off and the time sequence was confused. I didn't expect that I missed so much." The monkey sighed with emotion.
While Li Nu was talking to the monkey, Ao Bing was also using Li Nu's eyes to examine the monkey's body.
Although still in Yuantian, he and Ao Bing are still Daluo - Daluo that is attained once and for all.
The thought went from Yuantian to Pantian. Although Ao Bing could not see the essence of heaven and earth or the operation of heaven and earth due to the barrier of heaven and earth, his Daluo vision was enough to see the monkey's body very clearly.
The Vajra is indestructible, indeed, but perhaps because this Vajra is not achieved through orthodox methods, the foundation of this Vajra is not so solid - the process of being suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain is precisely the process of stabilizing the Vajra's indestructible body.
Five Elements Mountain - is this more than just the five elements?
……
"Junior brother, in your opinion, how much truth and how much falsehood are in the monkey's words?" After leaving the Five Elements Mountain, Li Nu asked Ao Bing.
The truth or falsehood is not about whether what the monkey said is true or not - Li Nu is sure that what the monkey said in front of her is the truth, but the truth does not necessarily mean the truth.
After all, the monkey's truth is based on his own intuition, but intuition does not mean accuracy.
The truth or falsehood that Li Nu asked about actually refers to the situation in Heaven.
The Heavenly Palace became a place for those great masters to play games.
On this day, when the monkey was pushed onto the beheading platform, Li Nu had already seen it.
But as the monkey said, some immortals and gods in the Heavenly Palace have established connections with the outside world, so that the tentacles of the outside world have already reached the Heavenly Palace. Even for Li Nu, this is incredible.
"Hard to say."
"Whether it's you, me, or Senior Sister Longji, we have all been away from Heaven for too long."
"As the monkey said, human hearts and human nature are changeable. When we withdraw, the situation in the Heavenly Palace has become a mystery."
"As for the outside world's hands and feet reaching into the Heavenly Palace..."
"Sister, that is outside the domain after all, the place where the world was created and where the ruler sits."
"The creation of the world is beyond comprehension."
"Once the layout reaches this level, any kind of change is possible." Ao Bing gathered his thoughts.
After he came into contact with Daluo, he came to understand more and more the power of the saint and the despair of Daluo when facing the saint.
——Daluo, omnipotent and omniscient.
Normally, a piece of heaven and earth can only accommodate one Daluo.
This is because the existence of the first Daluo will naturally "cover" the omnipotence and omniscience of those who come after him.
In that most ancient era, the era when the heaven, earth and time were in utter chaos, the chaos in that space and time was due to the conflicts between the Daluo when they coexisted in the world.
However, Daozu Hongjun used his supreme power to re-order time and space, and made the Daluo, which were unable to coexist, coexist in the same time and space.
This is a miracle that even Daluo cannot understand.
Even saints are so terrifying—let alone the creation of the world, which is even more terrifying than saints?
Such existence...
Unless Ao Bing discovered, as soon as he opened his eyes, that the war between heaven and earth had burned into heaven and earth, otherwise, Ao Bing believed that all changes between heaven and earth were possible and natural.
"Sister, if you have time, why not turn some of your attention back to Heaven?"
"The Heavenly Palace is, after all, the face of the world and the ultimate place where all games will end."
"If we abandon the Heavenly Court, it means that we have lost the qualification to play the game between heaven and earth."
"rest assured."
"I will pay more attention to the Heavenly Palace later." Li Nu responded, "Although I don't like this Jade Emperor, the Heavenly Palace is the Heavenly Palace and the Jade Emperor is the Jade Emperor."
"I will also secretly verify the monkey's words."
Even as she was speaking, Li Nu's footsteps had already moved along the river, approaching Xiangyang.
……
The afterglow of the setting sun falls on the city wall of Xiangyang.
On the city walls of Xiangyang, scorch marks from lightning and fire can be seen everywhere.
It has been exactly half a year since Ji Han conquered Xiangyang, but the traces of that battle have not yet been cleaned up.
Broken ladders were floating in the moat, and the wreckage of a warship was half-sunken, revealing the hideous horns on the bow.
Inside the city, there was even less life than usual.
Years of brutal warfare had already brought mortals' fear of war to the extreme. Even though Ji Han had many good reputations, the mortals in the city instinctively trembled when facing those soldiers.
As a result, the whole city seemed a bit deserted.
"Is this rainstorm over?" In Xiangyang city, a tall and mighty general with a face as red as a date was looking at the slowly setting sun through the door.
The general stood there stroking his beard, with his Green Dragon Crescent Blade lying beside him.
This is Guan Yu, who was once believed to be the incarnation of the Azure Dragon and the representative of trust and loyalty in the world.
Xiangyang City was once an important town of Cao Wei and the throat of the Yangtze River.
Wind and rain play a vital role in the human world. In addition to being closely related to farming, they can also greatly affect the outcome of a war - just like the current situation of the Three Kingdoms.
The State of Cao Wei still occupied 60 to 70 percent of the world's territory, and its national strength was greater than that of the State of Wu and the Han Dynasty combined. However, because the Dragon Clan disliked Cao Wei, those Qigong practitioners of the Wind and Rain system also disliked Cao Wei. As a result, this river, which was almost absolutely dominated by the Dragon Clan, was turned into a natural moat, making it difficult for the countless soldiers under Cao Wei to cross it.
However, even though they could not cross the river, Cao Wei still used the power of the country to lock down Xiangyang, an important river town, and strangle the throat of the Yangtze River.
In this way, even though Cao Wei's army found it difficult to cross the Yangtze River, Wu's army was also locked south of the Yangtze River and had little power to advance, allowing Cao Wei to have enough spare strength and energy to calmly face Ji Han.
In order to build the impregnable city of Xiangyang, Cao Wei invested almost 30% of its national strength in Xiangyang - this is why, after Xiangyang was captured, although the strength of the Three Kingdoms had not changed, its momentum was almost reversed, and the strongest Cao Wei even moved its capital directly for this reason.
The strongest general defending the city, plus a mighty city that could be said to be indestructible, were captured in one fell swoop. The shock to people's hearts was almost incalculable - not to mention that under the cruel and harsh oppression of Cao Wei, ordinary people had already had considerable expectations for Ji Han.
Under such circumstances, if the capital is not moved as soon as possible, Guan Yu, the great general of the Shu Han Dynasty, might follow the example of Huo Piaoyao in the past and lead his elite cavalry to break in alone and head straight for Xu Du!
"The rainstorm is over, but the trouble in Xiangyang has just begun." As Guan Yu finished speaking, a scholar with a three-inch short beard also stepped into the mansion.
"I've met the general."
"Brother Yuanzhi, you are finally back." Seeing this scholar, Guan Yu took the initiative to greet him.
Guan Yu is undoubtedly a man of great reputation, but compared to Guan Yu, Xu Shu is also a well-known hero in the world - his experience can also be called legendary.
At the beginning, he served under Liu Xuande and commanded the army, defeating Cao's army several times. Later, Cao Wei kidnapped his mother, forcing Xu Shu to abandon Liu Xuande and go to Xudu. Halfway through the journey, his mother learned the news and then committed suicide in Xuchang. Before committing suicide, she left a letter to persuade Xu Shu to return to Liu Xuande.
Later, Guan Yu, who knew about this, did not even care about the current war situation. He led his own guards to attack Xuchang day and night and retrieve the body of Xu's mother.
During the Battle of Red Cliff, it was Xu Shu who personally went up the mountain, invited Pang Tong out, and proposed the iron chain scheme to Cao Wei. He also stirred up the people of Cao Wei, causing the counselors under Cao Wei to try to exclude Pang Tong and deliberately ignore the hidden dangers of the iron chain...
Combined with other plans, the fire at Chibi occurred.
Under the fire of Chibi, the whole world was dimmed - only a few things were shining brightly in the fire.
And Xu Shu was one of them.
After the Battle of Chibi, Xu Shu had been cooperating with Guan Yu. One was a civil official and the other a military official, and they jointly controlled the battle situation in Jingxiang, complementing each other.
……
After taking Xiangyang, General Guan Yu immediately moved his camp into the city of Xiangyang, preparing to continue northward to expand the victory. It was at this time that someone reported to Lingxiao Palace that this rainstorm was caused by the dragon clan taking it against the will of heaven.
After this announcement, not only the dragon gods around Xiangyang had to go to heaven, but even the immortal gods in Guan Yu's camp had to go to heaven together.
Under such circumstances, Guan Yu's offensive against Cao Wei could not help but temporarily pause, waiting for the Heavenly Court's decision on this storm.
Guan Yu was extremely angry about this kind of trouble-making behavior - the appeal to the Heavenly Court and the dragon clan's defense in the Heavenly Court were not only humiliations to him, Guan Yu, but also greatly delayed the opportunity to fight here.
Fortunately, this unprovoked turmoil has finally come to an end.
"This wind and rain are just natural weather. They have nothing to do with my dragon clan, so naturally there will be no problem." In the Xiangyang Palace, when a group of generals were sitting upright, several dragon sons also stepped into the palace with water vapor on their bodies.
"Greetings, General." Looking at Guan Yu at the head, all the dragon sons bowed their heads. "Greetings, Mr. Xu."
The connection between Ji Han and the dragon vein of the Yangtze River is actually deeper than anyone imagined. The Jiao Ji who reincarnated into the State of Wu may not seem very impressive, but in fact, she is the eldest daughter of a dragon god among the dragon gods within the Yangtze River.
The dragon sons under the Dragon God and those surrounding dragon gods all grew up under the discipline of this Jiao Ji - those dragon sons who grew up under discipline naturally also included the Dragon Kings who now stepped into Xiangyang Prefecture.
"That's good. Everyone, take a seat." Guan Yu greeted them. He was a proud person, but these dragon sons were truly his own people. Naturally, his pride would not fall on these dragon sons.
What's more, for these dragon sons, the turmoil caused by this storm was really an unexpected disaster.
It is reasonable and logical for Guan Yu, as the one who caused this turmoil, to comfort these dragon sons. Otherwise, he would have a hard time explaining to Jiao Ji when he returns to Chengdu.
Furthermore, although these dragon sons have never crossed the boundaries of the heavenly rules, in the Jingxiang area, these dragon sons do not need to cross the boundaries of the heavenly rules. Just a slight inclination is enough to bring countless conveniences to Guan Yu's army.
Convenient water transportation, sufficient catches, and easy access to water for the soldiers and civilians under his command... and so on.
Of course, while appeasing these dragon sons, Guan Yu was also prepared to give some people a warning.
Every faction has many factions within it. No matter what they want to do, these factions will hinder each other - just like the Qigong practitioners in the army, they are also divided into those from the Dragon Clan, those from the aristocratic families, those from the immortal sects, etc...
These Qigong practitioners from different mountains are naturally in a state of mutual competition in the army.
In the past, Guan Yu was also happy to see these Qigong practitioners competing with each other - with competition, those Qigong practitioners would work harder.
But it’s limited to competition!
Just as Guan Yu would not allow his generals to miss the battle due to competing for merit, he would also not allow his Qigong practitioners to ruin the battle due to mutual exclusion.
This time, the interrogation of the dragon gods by the Heavenly Court naturally touched upon Guan Yu's taboos.
There are boundaries between heaven and the human world - especially during wars on earth, heaven is extremely cautious in interfering with the human world.
Just like in the Battle of Jingxiang, someone complained to the Heavenly Court, saying that the Dragon Clan was defying the will of Heaven.
If the people who filed the appeal were only from Cao Wei, Heaven would ignore the appeal no matter what - only if, in addition to the army of Cao Wei, there were also "own people" under Guan Yu as evidence, would Heaven summon those dragon gods to plead their case.
This means that when Guan Yu was conquering Xiangyang and advancing triumphantly, the Qigong practitioners under his command had already started fighting among themselves. Because of the fighting among these Qigong practitioners, the original war situation had to be temporarily stopped, which allowed Cao Wei, which was already a powerful country, to breathe a sigh of relief, and also made many of Guan Yu's plans go down the drain.
It is no exaggeration to say that the opportunity of the Three Revitalizing Men was wasted for this reason.
One can imagine how angry Guan Yu was about this matter.
——During this half year, when the dragon clan went to heaven to plead their case, Guan Yu, who was holding a heavy breath, naturally did not do nothing.
As I said, the lifespan of immortals and mortals is very different.
Therefore, in terms of efficiency, the efficiency of the human race is unimaginable to the Qigong practitioners.
In just half a year, Guan Yu had already found out which of his Qigong practitioners had messed up things because of internal strife and what their intentions were!
This matter is not only about competing for merit, but also involves a past grudge between the dragon clan.
That is the Huai League.
Over the past ten thousand years, the Dragon Clan has been thriving. Although most of the Taiyi of the Dragon Clan have gone to outer space, it is an indisputable fact that the Dragon Clan is becoming increasingly powerful. And the Huai League, who have seized half of the authority over the Huai River from the Dragon Clan, are almost mortal enemies with the Dragon Clan.
Even though there was mediation by Heaven and there were few major battles between the two sides, the existence of the Dragon Clan was still like the Immortal Sword hanging over the heads of the Huai League. Over the past ten thousand years, the Dragon Clan and Yanhan had a close relationship. Even if we put aside the Four Great Dragon Gods who were still in seclusion, they had already put tremendous pressure on the Huai League.
But now, Guan Yu has conquered Xiangyang and reversed the situation in Jingxiang. The Han Dynasty is showing signs of revival for the third time, and the Dragon Clan is becoming more and more powerful. This is naturally not what the Huai League wants to see.
In addition, there are also many factions within Ji Han, and many Qigong practitioners are repulsed by the dragon clan.
As someone once said, the time when a force is closest to success is when it is most likely to fall.
——Because at that moment, the people within that power were no longer thinking about how to succeed, but how to exclude dissidents before taking this final step.
This was what happened during the Battle of Red Cliffs!
Before that battle, Cao Wei was as powerful as a tiger. Between heaven and earth, almost all the immortals and gods believed that it was the final battle before the unification of heaven and earth.
Heaven thinks so.
This was also the view within Cao Wei.
Then, in this situation, when those counselors and qigong practitioners within Cao Wei began to target each other and sabotage each other in order to gain more benefits for themselves, Zhuge Kongming's sudden east wind, coupled with the water vapor suppressed by the dragon gods of the Yangtze River, turned into an unprecedented fire, burning Cao Wei's dominance to ashes.
The current Three Kingdoms situation was caused by the fire of Chibi.
And obviously, after conquering Xiangyang, the Qigong practitioners under Guan Yu's command also showed the same "symptoms" as those under Cao Wei during the Battle of Red Cliff.
The internal desire for merit was instigated by the people from the Huai League, so some people went to the Heavenly Court to appeal with evidence, hoping to exclude the Dragon Clan from the battle in Jingxiang first.
"This trend must be stopped no matter what!"
"I have to give an explanation to the Dragon Clan, and also to the soldiers under my command!" A sharp murderous aura flashed across Guan Yu's phoenix eyes.
"Half a year ago, I mobilized my army and captured Xiangyang. Originally, I could have marched straight to Xuchang and defeated Cao Cao."
"However, the heavens did not allow us to do so. Something unexpected happened in the Heavenly Palace, which damaged the morale of the army and caused our army to fail at the last moment."
"The thief Cao is despicable. He cut off the general's military momentum with false accusations. It is truly hateful." As soon as Guan Yu finished speaking, a general stepped forward.
"If it is just Cao's fault, then I can only blame myself for making a mistake in my calculations. I have failed my soldiers."
"But unfortunately, I discovered that the false accusation made by Cao was not only about Cao, but also about an insider lurking in Xiangyang who cooperated with him." Guan Yu lowered his eyes and looked at the sign tube in front of him. In the sign tube, there were one gold-painted command arrow after another, as if they had collected all the wind, rain, thunder and lightning between heaven and earth - as soon as the command arrow came out, the heavens and the earth would shake in an instant.
"But I don't know who the general is talking about?" Guan Yu had naturally discussed this matter with Xu Yuanzhi long ago, so at this time, Xu Yuanzhi directly gave way.
