Honghuang: Starting from the Enlightenment of the Great Emperor Dongyue

Chapter 42, Chapter 45, Chapter 46: Proving the Truth (Two-in-one, please read and collect, thank you~)

With a deafening roar, the [Map of Mountains, Rivers, and States] merged with the earth and became a part of the ancient world.

"change!"

The vast heavenly sound rises again.

The next moment, Di Tai's huge body condensed by the laws shattered and turned into thousands of earth dragons. The dragons rushed, merged into the earth veins, and disappeared.

Suddenly, deep in the ancient land, thousands of dragons roared. At this time, in the entire ancient land, in the three regions of the east, middle and west, new veins of the earth intertwined like blood vessels, and finally converged into a huge mountain, river and state formation spanning the three regions. It continuously drew chaotic energy from the chaos in the ground, transformed it into innate spiritual energy, and nourished this world.

"I am the Emperor of Earth, in charge of the earth and stabilizing the universe!" Di Tai's voice echoed again between heaven and earth.

Merits and virtues descend again, and the heavenly sounds celebrate.

With the immense merits, Emperor Tai's true spirit reshaped its golden body, and eventually it also steadily reached the realm of Half-Step Supreme, and was only one step away from the supreme realm of Heaven and Earth Supreme.

As Di Tai transformed into thousands of earth dragons and merged into the prehistoric earth veins, a more mysterious and profound law fluctuation spread from the depths of the earth, sweeping across the entire prehistoric world, even affecting the thirty-three heavens and endless chaos.

"Earth! Get out!"

The originally stable space was like a calm lake with a huge rock thrown into it, causing ripples and distorting the laws of space.

"Rumble--"

The vast land of ancient times trembled violently, and bottomless space cracks appeared under the Nine Netherworld veins.

I saw that those bottomless cracks were not empty, but were filled with a layer of gray mist. It was the turbid energy of the earth, cold and gloomy, but full of vitality, as if it was a forbidden zone of life and also the cradle of life.

"Woo, woo, woo——" the cold wind was howling.

As time passed, eighteen vast and boundless gray worlds were finally formed deep underground. They were connected to the ancient land, but formed a world of their own.

The previously opened East Pole Underworld was also integrated into this vast world.

This is the earth realm, also known as the underworld.

At this point, the three realms of the ancient world finally took shape.

The sky is divided into thirty-three layers, the earth is divided into eighteen layers, the three emperors are upper, middle and lower, and the four symbols guard the four poles. In this way, the entire ancient world, up and down, front and back, left and right, is heavily protected by the gods.

However, it is only a framework at present, and the Shinto has not yet set foot in the northern and western regions of the prehistoric world.

………………

On the top of Kunlun Mountain, the sea of ​​clouds is rolling, and the figures of the Three Pure Ones appear and disappear in the clouds.

Laozi's face was as calm as water, and his eyes were deep and far-reaching.

Beneath Tongtian's calm sword eyes, there was endless excitement and admiration hidden. He was also confused and wanted to ask for advice right away. He glanced at the chaos outside the sky, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm the waves in his heart.

Yuanshi frowned, his eyes filled with shock, confusion and disbelief, "How could he do that!" He stared at the majestic figure in the central land.

That figure stood tall and straight, blending into the mountains and rivers, emitting endless divine power. He had already repaired the heaven and earth and proved himself to be a great emperor. How glorious and free it must have been!

But he voluntarily gave up all of this and chose to transform himself into the Tao, imprisoning himself forever in the cold earth, turning himself into an earth vein, unable to escape forever.

What was the purpose of such a fateful choice? Was it simply for the sake of the prehistoric world? For the sake of those ant-like creatures?

He could not understand this choice which was almost like "Pangu's great love of turning himself into all things". In his opinion, this behavior of sacrificing oneself and turning oneself into the wilderness was simply unreasonable!

Doesn’t Ditai want to pursue a higher realm and transcendence?

Doesn’t he want to attain the supreme Dao and roam freely between heaven and earth?

Yuanshi Tianzun was puzzled, but at the same time, he had to admit that Ditai's choice made him feel an indescribable admiration.

…………

At the same time, in Pangu Palace, the Twelve Ancestral Witches also felt Di Tai’s sacrifice, and they felt mixed emotions that were hard to describe.

"To transform oneself into the Tao and protect the ancient world, this is the wish of the Father God!" Zhu Rong's voice was low and hoarse, as if he saw the moment when Pangu transformed himself into all things. At this moment, the resentment that remained in his heart towards Di Tai completely disappeared.

"As the direct descendants of Pangu, we should protect the ancient world. Emperor Tai has set an example for us personally..." Gonggong clenched his fists, and a thin layer of mist quietly covered his eyes.

Hou Tu couldn't help but burst into tears, and the tears flowed down uncontrollably.

Ditai's choice deeply shocked her heart.

After a long silence, Hou Tu stood up and looked at her brothers. "My brothers, if we really have to make a choice in the end, I choose to join Shinto..."

None of the ancient witches, even the hot-tempered Zhurong and Gonggong, uttered a word of rebuttal.

Dijiang stood up and walked to Houtu, patted her shoulder gently, and said in a gentle but firm tone: "Brothers support you."

…………

In the magnificent hall of the demon king's court, the demon emperor Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi stood side by side, looking at the center, their eyes filled with fear and uneasiness, with a hint of darkness.

…………

However, this was just the beginning, the vision did not stop there.

Above the eastern sky, the seven stars of Jiao, Kang, Di, Fang, Xin, Wei and Ji shine brightly, illuminating the eastern sky.

"The Four Azure Dragons, the Eastern Azure Emperor is born!" A gentle voice came from the Seven Stars in the East, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.

"Yan!"

Accompanied by the earth-shaking dragon roar, billions of starlight poured back like the Milky Way, converging into a gigantic blue dragon. It rose into the sky from the seven stars in the east, with a slender body, jade-like scales sparkling with a crystal luster, and extremely sharp claws that could tear the sky apart. Its dragon beard fluttered, exuding supreme majesty and sacred aura.

At the same time, Emperor Cang was surrounded by the Law of Wood, and walked towards the Eastern Star Region step by step, and finally merged into the Azure Dragon that covered the sky and the sun. The Azure Dragon let out bursts of joyful dragon roars, and the Wheel of the Law of Wood emitted bursts of heavenly sounds. The heaven and the earth resonated, and all things rejoiced.

The Azure Dragon, one of the Four Symbols of Heaven and Earth, and the Eastern Azure Emperor, one of the Five Emperors, were officially born, guarding the eastern gate of Heaven and Earth.

The purple air that originally filled the sky had not yet disappeared, and it was now even more dense, and merits and virtues fell from the sky like a waterfall.

The rich power of the law of wood permeated the heaven and earth, transforming into green lotuses that bloomed in the void, emitting a refreshing fragrance that made people feel relaxed and happy.

All the spiritual roots and immortal plants seemed to be reborn at this moment. In one day, the whole garden was filled with flowers, fragrant and colorful, showing vigorous vitality.

Billions of lives also got rid of their injuries and fatigue in this powerful vitality, and they couldn't help but bow their heads to pay tribute to the Azure Dragon in the sky, thanking the Azure Emperor for his grace and being grateful for this God-given blessing.

At this time, a dark green precious flag cut through the sky and appeared in Emperor Cang's hand. The flag exuded a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.

[Blue Lotus Treasure Color Flag], calms the mind, repels all evil, and is immune to all attacks.

Emperor Cang held the [Blue Lotus Treasure Color Flag] in his hand, and the golden wheel of merit behind his head slowly rose, emitting a dazzling dark golden light.

Late Emperor!

………………

"The Vermillion Bird of the Four Symbols, the Red Emperor of the South is born!" The Vermillion Bird's gentle yet heroic voice echoed throughout the heaven and earth after Emperor Cang.

"The Four White Tigers, the White Emperor of the West is born!" Gou Chen's cold and indifferent voice followed.

In the southern seven constellations, each star casts down brilliant rays of light, like colorful silk falling from the sky, making the originally azure sky look like a dream.

A phantom of a Vermilion Bird that blocked out the sun slowly emerged, its wings spread out, covering the entire southern sky.

Every feather on its body was clearly visible, burning with flames.

In the seven western constellations, rays of starlight shot up into the sky like sharp blades, the metal energy of Geng and Xin filled the air, and a murderous aura enveloped the heaven and earth.

The light of the seven stars shone together, and finally condensed into a huge white tiger shadow in the western sky.

It is snow-white all over, with the golden word "King" shining on its forehead, its eyes are like lightning, and it dominates the world.

The fairy sound rang out again.

Infinite merits descended from the sky, turning into golden rain of light, sprinkling on the starry sky intertwined with heat and solemnity.

At this moment, Shinto added two more supreme emperors.

The northern sky, unlike the fiery south and the solemn west, was remarkably tranquil. Fuxi stood up, his purple-gold imperial robe flowing down. His crown, adorned with translucent pearls, swayed gently with his movements, emitting a soft glow.

His originally elegant appearance now had a bit of majesty. In his eyes, the yin and yang energies flowed, evolving into the Four Symbols. The Four Symbols changed again, presenting the mysterious Bagua pattern, and finally transformed into a mysterious star map.

Taicang looked at Fuxi, and the two nodded to each other, and everything was said without words.

The [Book of Heaven] above Taicang's head sensed the change in destiny and separated into a golden list of gods, which was filled with the densely packed real names of those who had been conferred. Each name represented a god of heaven and earth guarding a place.

The Divine List slowly floated down and fell into Fuxi's hands.

Fuxi took the divine list with both hands, respectfully half-bowed in the direction of Taicang, and then turned to Doumu, "I hope the Supreme and Yuanjun can lend me a helping hand."

Tai Cang nodded, "Good!"

Doumu followed and walked out, "As it should be!"

Taicang raised the [Divine Whip] in his hand to the sky and said to the Heavenly Law, "Dutian, get rid of the disaster!"

The Eye of Heavenly Punishment opened again, and vast thunder filled the sky. The thunder poured down, and all the evil spirits that had covered the stars in the sky were eliminated.

Fuxi made a gesture of invitation to Dou Mu Yuanjun, and they both shouted, "The Zhoutian Star God, be born!"

Although their voices were not loud, they seemed to contain some strange magic and instantly spread throughout the starry sky.

The vigorous vitality of Haoyang in Fuxi's body, the star mother energy contained in Doumu, the combination of yin and yang, spread in all directions and swept across the entire starry sky.

Every star in the originally silent constellation was activated at this moment. The long-dormant consciousness of the stars began to awaken, and powerful forces were bred within them.

The sleeping stars hummed with joy, and the starlight was brilliant, cheering their birth.

At the same time, the stars in the sky shone brightly, and the brilliant starlight gathered towards Fuxi, condensing into a dazzling picture of the Zhoutian star array around him. The starlight on it flowed mysteriously, comparable to the best innate spiritual treasure.

"The stars in the sky, rise!" Fuxi shouted.

The ignorant consciousness inside all the stars began to rotate slowly under the influence of Fuxi's mighty divine power.

The stars in the sky have been moving since the beginning of the universe, and today they are finally moving.

From then on, the sun and the moon no longer shone together, and the sky and the earth no longer remained bright forever. The stars in the sky circulated according to their mysterious trajectories, over and over again, and time also had a clear scale at this moment.

At the same time, the Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Array contained in it appeared in the minds of Taicang, Fuxi, Dou Mu and the three emperors. They looked at each other, tacitly activated the divine power in their bodies, used themselves as the center of the array, and opened the Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Array.

The great formation was activated, drawing in the endless chaotic energy from the surroundings, transforming this violent energy into gentle innate energy, replenishing the concentration of spiritual energy in heaven and earth.

At the same time, the light from the stars in the sky became increasingly intense, enveloping the entire ancient world in a layer of faint starlight.

"I am the Great Emperor Taihuang of the North Pole of Ziwei in the Central Sky, commanding all the stars and gods. I am the master of all stars and the master of all things." The vast voice spread throughout the three realms.

…………

…………

heaven.

Lingxiao Palace.

The gods returned to their positions. This was the first grand Shinto assembly.

Those who have the opportunity to participate in this grand court meeting are all gods above the level of God Lord.

Now there are two half-step supreme beings in the Shinto, Taicang and Ditai, and six great emperors. Among them, Dicang, Fuxi and Zhuque are in the late stage of the great emperor, Gouchen has barely broken through the middle stage of the great emperor because of his late birth, and Nuwa is in the early stage of the great emperor because she has only understood the way but has not yet proved it. At the same time, Doumu also entered the early stage of the great emperor because of her sudden enlightenment of the way of the stars due to Taicang's preaching and helping Fuxi awaken the Zhoutian Star God.

There are hundreds of gods in the realm of gods, earth gods, star gods, and underworld gods.

Not to mention the millions of gods below the Divine Lord realm.

If these forces were gathered together in the present prehistoric world, they would have enough strength to overwhelm the entire prehistoric world, enforce justice on behalf of heaven, and silence all opposing voices.

This grand court meeting not only reconfirmed the duties of all gods, but more importantly, it carried out the transfer of power and formally established the first generation of heavenly leadership team with Fuxi as the central emperor of heaven and the five gods as assistants.

In the future, the Three Emperors will need to sit in the Three Paths to stabilize the most fundamental laws and order of heaven and earth, protect the bottom line of heaven and earth and the Shinto, and at the same time monitor the gods. They also have the right to dismiss a great emperor at will, even if he violates the bottom line of the Shinto. The Three Emperors have the right to dismiss him from his position and deprive him of his divine power.

The court meeting ended and the gods dispersed.

Only Taicang and a group of emperors were left.

The atmosphere was tense for a moment.

Fuxi said solemnly, "Supreme Lord, the Saint and I are now in a real confrontation. Especially the demons and immortals under the Saint's tutelage, which almost cover all living beings in the human world. Especially after the preaching, the conflict is bound to escalate. I think our Divine Dao should be on high alert and prepare for the battle to establish the Dao."

Taicang nodded, which coincided with what he was thinking. Fuxi was indeed born to be an emperor. He could see the problem directly and get to the heart of the matter.

"That's right. There are still a hundred years before the sermon, especially during the thousands of years it will take. During this period, I think those saints above Daluo will not miss the sermon. This is our opportunity."

Taicang looked at Fuxi, "What do you think is the best way for us to establish our authority?"

Upon hearing this, Fuxi smiled slightly, "Didn't the Supreme Being make preparations long before he attained enlightenment? We will use the Heavenly Tribulation to establish our authority!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the emperors all understood and smiled happily.

Heavenly tribulation is the shackles that heaven and earth impose on all living beings. It is also a symbol of the authority of heaven and earth. It is most appropriate to establish authority through heavenly tribulation.

Taicang nodded with a smile, "Just make the decision."

Taicang then turned the topic to Hongjun's upcoming sermon.

"Hongjun's sermon is about to begin, and we must learn from others and not be complacent. I think it's necessary to listen to the sermon."

Fuxi frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, "Your Majesty's words are indeed reasonable, but Hongjun is a saint and preaches the truth. The way of heaven is impartial. What we have learned from listening to his teachings is a debt of karma to Hongjun. I am afraid that there will be problems in the future."

Taicang smiled slightly, having anticipated this. "Fuxi, your concerns are not without reason. I had the same concerns at the beginning. After Hongjun became a saint, I aligned myself with the Way of Heaven and carefully explored the cause and effect relationship."

"I discovered that the causal relationship between listening to the Dharma is not as huge as we imagined. There are two main reasons for this."

"Firstly, Hongjun preached in order to repay the karma of the Longhan Great Tribulation. Although the Longhan Great Tribulation was a great tribulation of heaven and earth, the struggle between the Dao and the Demon indirectly contributed to the war between the three races, aggravating the destructive power of the great tribulation and causing the shattering and degradation of heaven and earth."

"Hongjun wanted to use this opportunity to gain merit from Heaven and Earth. This would not only offset his own karma, but also save him the time and energy to repair Heaven and Earth."

"Secondly, the [Creation Jade Butterfly] in Hongjun's hand is a treasure of heaven and earth, containing three thousand great ways, which is related to the perfection of the Heavenly Dao. When Pangu created the world, he died of exhaustion and was unable to mediate the creation. As a result, the Heavenly Dao was incomplete in the early days, and he was even in danger of dying young.

"And the one who controls the Jade Butterfly of Creation, formed by these three thousand Dao seeds, has the obligation to preach the Dao of Heaven and Earth, thereby repairing the Dao of Heaven and perfecting the laws of Heaven and Earth."

"Therefore, Hongjun's preaching is not a simple gift, but an obligation he should fulfill. Although what we gain from listening to his teachings is subject to cause and effect, it is not unacceptable."

Fuxi and others showed a look of sudden realization.

Taicang said with a slightly serious tone, "Moreover, what we gain from listening to the teachings will also be transformed into the power to perfect the heaven and earth. After Hongjun's teachings, the Heavenly Dao will compensate for this part of the cause and effect with merit. Therefore, we must focus on upholding the Dao on behalf of Heaven and not forget our original purpose."

Everyone nodded solemnly.

And there are some reasons that Taicang didn't say.

Taicang must go to this sermon!
The main reason is related to the future of Shinto. At the same time, the [Heavenly Book] needs to be improved. Hongjun's preaching is a perfect opportunity. Once the Heavenly Book is perfected and the Three Thousand Great Daos are complete, Shinto will have the opportunity to achieve the Three Thousand Great Emperors in the future!
Although it is still too early given the current level of the prehistoric world, this is Shinto's hope for resisting the coming of the Age of Saints in the future.

Tai Cang nodded, then smiled and said, "The Heavenly Court is newly established now, and there are too many things to do. You are all too busy to handle them all. I will take Nuwa with me to listen."

Fuxi and others nodded in agreement. The Heavenly Court was newly established and everything needed to be adjusted. All the emperors had multiple duties and were busy with affairs. They had no time to listen to any sermons.

Now, only Taicang and Nuwa are relatively free.

Of course, Taicang dared to take Nuwa to Zixiao Palace because, firstly, this sermon was of great help to Nuwa, and secondly, he was very confident in his own strength.

Because Di Tai's body has been integrated into the earth veins, he needs to stay on the earth and cannot leave. The reason he comes here now is just a clone of his thoughts.

In addition, Shinto also needs to keep a half-step supreme to prevent villains from taking advantage of the situation.

Fuxi's gaze lingered on Taicang and Nuwa for a moment, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

If I had known this would happen... well, I would still have made this choice!
Nuwa noticed Fuxi's gaze, smiled playfully, and bowed to Fuxi and the other great emperors. "Brother and all the great emperors, thank you for your hard work."

When everyone saw this, they all laughed and shook their heads, and moved away.

Although Nuwa has not yet attained enlightenment, she has already understood the truth and her enlightenment is just around the corner. As the emperor of mankind, how can they bear her respect?
