I stole divine power in Daxia

Chapter 502: Reincarnation of Mother Earth
"Why, don't you think this reward is big enough?"

Zhou's mother said with a smile that was three parts teasing and seven parts expectant.

Zhou Tieyi was incoherent for a moment, "I, this, is not..."

Mother Zhou laughed loudly, and then said seriously, "You have discovered it yourself. As the practice becomes more and more profound, the more powerful the life is, the more difficult it is to conceive offspring. This is also the law of heaven. For example, a third-grade pure-blooded dragon and phoenix will need hundreds of years to have a chance to succeed in conceiving offspring. Even the vast majority of pure-blooded dragons and phoenixes are not born from the union of men and women, but from the wind and fire of heaven and earth. It is even more difficult for you and Miaoyu to conceive offspring than dragons and phoenixes. Unless the opportunity of heaven and earth comes, it is impossible."

Zhou Tieyi also thought about this matter seriously. He sighed, "No wonder the Lord of Daming Palace said that my mother and father had a great human relationship in the academy. At that time, I thought it was a witness to the will of the Confucian saint, so there must be something else. It turns out that the original calculation was to give birth to an heir."

Each generation of the Zhou family inherits the bloodline of an Emperor of Life and Death, so it is difficult for them to conceive. As a result, the Zhou family has very few members. Zhou's mother is not an ordinary woman, and she inherited the Taoist fortune.

It might take decades or even hundreds of years for the two to give birth to a child. So in order to allow the two to have children smoothly, the idea of ​​establishing the etiquette of human relations was established in the academy.

Mother Zhou said softly, "Yes, everyone says that I am blessed by nature, but to reach my level of cultivation, in fact, from birth to death, I don't know how many people have schemed against me. Many times I wanted to resist, or simply turn the world upside down, but after so many years, I have figured it out. Although they interfered in my life, in the end, it was my own choice."

"The same goes for you."

Mother Zhou looked at Zhou Tieyi seriously, and then said, "As for whether to keep this child, it is up to you and Miaoyu to decide."

After Zhou's mother said this, Zhou Tieyi also had a sense that the child he and Miaoyu were about to give birth to would also be related to the changes in the situation in the world.

"Then I'll go ask Senior Sister."

Zhou Tieyi replied that there was actually no need to ask Miaoyu, as he probably guessed that Miaoyu would agree. Miaoyu's character was forbearing and restrained, but the more so, the harder it would be for her to change her mind. For example, in this relationship with himself, since the senior sister accepted him, she must want to have a happy family. This time, knowing that she could have children, she would agree even if he disagreed.

There is a destiny in the dark...

Zhou Tieyi suddenly saw a golden lotus growing out of the mist in the haze. The flower blossomed into twelve grades, and the best grade lotus pod bloomed, revealing a baby girl wearing a red bellyband and pigtails. The baby girl's red bellyband had a picture of beautiful mountains and rivers, reflecting the boundless earth.

Mother Earth!

The anchoring point for the future where another of the Nine Ancient Gods fell from the holy throne has been found.

The anchoring of this Earth Mother is truly unique. She actually uses Her reproductive authority to anchor to her own offspring.

However, Zhou Tieyi did not have much aversion. First of all, Mother Earth was the most moderate among the nine ancient gods. Since ancient times, except for the dispute over the earth veins with Canglong, she had hardly any disputes with others and had made many good friends.

Therefore, not many people wanted to stop His reincarnation. After all, reincarnation did not mean returning to the throne directly.

"Mother Earth is placing her treasure on me."

When Zhou's mother told Zhou Tieyi about this, she had actually guessed who Zhou Tieyi's offspring would be. This was God's will. The moment Zhou Tieyi agreed, no one could stop it, not even the Emperor of Life and Death who controlled the rules of reincarnation. She nodded and said, "In the future, when there will be great struggles, alliances will naturally be inevitable. It is also a blessing for the world that the Earth Mother is willing to stand on our side."

Zhou Tieyi also understood Zhou's mother's feelings at this time.

There is no private matter in the royal family. Although he and Zhou's mother are not from the royal family, it is similar. Both their marriage and their offspring are of great importance.

In the Moon-Watching Tower, Zhou Tieyi came out from his mother's place and told Miaoyu, who was in meditation, the news.

Miaoyu stared at the snow outside for a while, then turned around and said, "That's good too."

Zhou Tieyi said, "Although she was the Earth Mother in her previous life, she can only be our daughter in this life."

Compared with emotional analysis, Zhou Tieyi analyzes more rationally.

"Sister, do you still remember the Great Wisdom Sutra?"

"Hu Wenlang developed a method for the dream world in the Great Wisdom Sutra to divide this life into past lives. Wait for me to ask Hu Wenlang for it, and then we can deduce it. It can also allow the Earth Mother's memories to remain in the past life. As for how she will inherit the memories of the past life in the future, it depends on her own choice."

Zhou Tieyi told his plan. The reason why he agreed to the reincarnation of Mother Earth was not only because of various practical benefits, but also because it would allow him to give birth to an innocent daughter.

We are all adults now, so of course Zhou Tieyi wants everything!

At dawn, Yujingshan Tai Academy gathered the chosen ones who came from all over the world overnight.

Those who can come here are indeed the chosen ones of heaven. To travel thousands of miles overnight, there is only one way, and that is to drive a third-rank or even a second-rank big shot to travel day and night.

Therefore, not many people from the various schools of thought were able to come here. Even if they were added together, they could only barely compare with the more than 300 new Confucian scholars.

Even Confucianism brought back students from all over the country, including Li Jianhu and Wang Mingyi, overnight.

Confucianism is still powerful.

Zhou Tieyi saw this scene and thought to himself.

A huge change also happened in Confucianism last night.

First, Tang Anshi was ordered to return home in the court. In this political struggle, he was used as a white glove by the Emperor of Daxia from beginning to end.

Dong Xingshu took a step back to advance, and with the help of the Emperor of Daxia, he suppressed the remnants of Confucianism.

After Tang Anshi was ordered to return home in old age, his words "Confucian scholars in the world are not allowed to do this" always became a joke.

With the help of Yuan Meng's powerful front line, Dong Xingshu reorganized Confucianism, eliminated Tang Anshi's influence in Tianjing, and then won over the centrists.

The Emperor of Daxia also offered corresponding benefits to appease the Confucians.

Using the reason that Confucian scholars were needed to open the academy, the Emperor of Daxia recalled Dong Xingshu and continued to let him serve as the Minister of Civil Affairs.

At the same time, Dong Xingshu also tacitly "represented" Confucianism and negotiated conditions with the Emperor of Daxia. The final result was that Confucianism was still the leader in this school opening, and all the other schools of thought combined were no more than Confucianism.

This is the complete game of interests.

Just after one o'clock in the morning, Dong Xingshu, whose hair and beard were already completely white, walked up to Zhou Tieyi and said, "The military situation at the front is urgent, so let's not waste time. Those who haven't come here just haven't had the chance." Zhou Tieyi nodded slightly in agreement.

An illusory river of Taoism burst out from Dong Xingshu's body, with the sound of water flowing continuously.

Dong Xingshu was a Confucian of the second rank who had made great contributions. His achievement was to develop water conservancy projects throughout the country. If the Five Emperors had not abolished the sacrifices, with the help of Zhou Tieyi's use of ships to connect the world's water transportation and the opportunity of major water conservancy projects next year, he would have had the opportunity to establish the first rank of water virtue as a citizen.

But now with the removal of the Five Emperors worship, Dong Xingshu will either remain at the second rank forever or create another virtue in addition to the traditional Confucian five virtues.

After Dong Xingshu burst out with the long river of Taoism, another third-rank military strategist and general also burst out with the long river of Taoism, followed by Taoism, Buddhism, Legalism...

A long river of different upper-three-grade Taoist traditions formed pillars of light, and then gathered in the sky above the Taixue Academy. The sound of countless students reading aloud came from the void, and the literary aura formed magnificent clouds of light, with dragons and phoenixes as the backdrop, and turtles and snakes entwined, making the illusory Taoist traditions solidify in this instant, becoming a series of steps ascending to heaven, extending into the dark void.

This is the method to open the academy. Ten different schools of thought will be combined to open the way to the academy with the literary spirit that has been passed down for more than a hundred years as the foundation.

Dong Xingshu looked at the students around him and said, "Go up one by one."

This year's top scholar Cai Ting took the lead and walked up the illusory stairs. However, his expression changed slightly when he stepped on the first step. Then he continued to move up, walking up a total of thirty-six steps, and then suddenly disappeared into the dark void.

The students who followed closely behind were different. Some disappeared when they were at the twenty-something steps, and some even disappeared when they were at just a few steps.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Zhou Tieyi asked his mother yesterday and found out the reason.

The stairs of the academy integrate the teachings of various schools of thought. Every step you climb is a direct test of a person's research into knowledge. The higher the step you climb, the deeper your knowledge, and the more benefits you will gain after entering the academy.

After the others had left, everyone turned their eyes to Zhou Tieyi. They were certainly not stupid enough to compare Zhou Tieyi with the students just now. Even a top scorer like Cai Ting was like a child who had just learned to walk in front of Zhou Tieyi.

But instead of comparing Zhou Tieyi with the person in front of him, he can be compared with those great figures in history.

The number of people who have climbed the ladder to heaven in the academy is recorded. Currently, the maximum number of people who have climbed to heaven is two people: the Drunken Swordsman of Confucianism and the Divine Calculator of Yin and Yang. Both of them have climbed to the ninety-ninth step. In comparison, even Zhou Yulong only climbed to the seventy-second step.

Zhou Tieyi stepped onto the stairs under the gazes of everyone, then he stopped on the first step and disappeared.

"How come you only climbed one step?"

Everyone looked stunned. In everyone's opinion, with Zhou Tieyi's ability, he should at least be on par with the Drunken Swordsman, and it wouldn't be surprising if he even showed signs of sainthood.

The first step is indeed legendary, because those who are able to enter the academy are all carefully selected geniuses, and over the years, there has never been a case where one can enter by just climbing one step.

Dong Xingshu looked solemnly as he looked towards the step where Zhou Tieyi disappeared. Everyone also looked over there and immediately knew the reason.

I saw cracks all over the solid steps of the Taoist tradition, as if they had just carried a terrifying weight, which even made the existing Taoist traditions of various schools of thought unable to bear.

Dong Xingshu sighed and said, "He really doesn't recognize the current Taoist tradition of the Hundred Schools."

Yesterday in the court, the words of the Minister of Education Tang Anshi that no Confucian scholars in the world are allowed to join forces ended up becoming a joke, because the Minister of Education was simply unable to connect the Confucian scholars under the suppression of Zhou Tieyi and the Emperor of Great Xia.

On the other hand, Zhou Tieyi's reforms have affected every aspect of the world, suppressing Buddhism, reforming Confucianism, opening up trade routes, and establishing the New Mohism...

From the beginning to the end, it was not the orthodox traditions of the various schools of thought that were testing Zhou Tieyi's knowledge, but Zhou Tieyi who was changing the orthodox traditions of the various schools of thought. Therefore, the orthodox ladder composed of nine third-grade masters and one second-grade master could not bear it.

Because it is not them who are influencing Zhou Tieyi, but Zhou Tieyi who is influencing them.

Dong Xingshu didn't say much. He waved away the Taoist stairs and walked towards the depths of the academy.

Arriving at the library, Dong Xingshu opened the side door, took down an oil lamp from the side, walked through the rows of bookshelves, as if walking on the long river of history, and entered the innermost part, where there were still a few simple bookcases and a green lamp. Behind the green lamp, Tai Shi Gong, holding a knife and pen, was sharpening bamboo slips.

Next to Taishigong, Zhang Shizhong was helping to tidy up. Because they had not seen each other for only a few months, the already old Taishiqing felt as if he was about to step into a grave. His originally sparse hair had almost completely dried up and withered, and his eyes, which once had spirit, were now completely covered with white mist. Only by relying on his long-term muscle memory could he continue to carve books with his seal pen.

"Who's coming?"

Tai Shi Qing sensed that someone was coming, but he couldn't even sense who it was.

"A student."

When Dong Xingshu saw Tai Shiqing's appearance, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "The student has harmed the teacher."

Dong Xingshu certainly knew the reason why Taishi Qing was like this, that was that Taishi Qing had never given up on making the final judgment on Zhou Tieyi, but as Zhou Tieyi grew at a terrifying speed, the demand on Taishi Qing also increased rapidly. Even with the support of the Great Xia's national destiny, Taishi Qing could no longer hold on.

"Do not blame you."

Tai Shiqing's voice was already hoarse. After thinking for a while, he said, "You originally commented on Mei Juncang that if you seek benevolence, you will get benevolence. This is very good. This is the principle I taught you back then. Mei Juncang blamed you for not saving his father. This is false benevolence and false righteousness. However, Confucianism has been passed down for thousands of years. How can it be explained with just false benevolence and false righteousness? There are always people who seek benevolence and get benevolence. Therefore, the Confucian principle is not wrong. It just needs some changes. You have been doing this, so this is very good. Unfortunately, I don't think I can see the day of change."

Dong Xingshu was slightly stunned, then kowtowed again.

"teacher."

As the leader of the Confucian court, no matter how many doubts and worries he had, he could not express them. Who could know how many days and nights he had woken up from his dreams in this world change, wondering if he was wrong.

Today, Taishi Qing gave Dong Xingshu an explanation at the last moment of his life.

There is nothing wrong with seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence, and Confucianism is not false benevolence and hypocrisy, because over the years, there are indeed countless Confucian scholars who have sought benevolence and gained benevolence. This is what they are doing, and naturally they are also teaching the world the truth.

After Tai Shiqing resolved a problem that concerned his disciple, he continued, "Has he entered the academy?"

Dong Xingshu looked up, "Yes, but he should have realized that the final verdict has been reached."

Tai Shiqing chuckled, "It's no secret that the final verdict is final. With his current status, he must have known what he should know a long time ago. But some things can be made true even if you know they are false. It's good that he entered the academy."
