Primordial Era: My God, this phoenix is ​​too cunning!

Because Yu the Great traveled almost the entire territory of humankind during his flood control efforts, he became extremely familiar with the terrain, customs, and products of various regions. (Google search)

Therefore, after Yu the Great succeeded to the throne, he reorganized the world into nine provinces: Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu, Liang, and Yong, and set forth the types of tribute items for each province.

Moreover, Yu the Great established the Xia Dynasty, the first state in human history, with Yangcheng as its capital. Five hundred li outside the capital was called Dianfu, another five hundred li was called Houfu, another five hundred li was called Suifu, another five hundred li was called Yaofu, and the outermost five hundred li was called Huangfu.

The three ranks of Dian, Hou, and Sui were divided into three categories, each requiring different amounts of goods or labor. The Yao rank did not require goods or labor; they were only required to accept discipline and abide by laws and regulations. The Huang rank was governed according to its own customs, without the imposition of central government policies.

Yu the Great revised the calendar, calling it the Xia calendar, and designated the month of Jianyin as the first month.

After the Xia Dynasty was established, Yu the Great convened a meeting of feudal lords at Mount Tu to examine his mistakes. On the day of the formal meeting, Yu the Great wore his ceremonial robes, held a black jade tablet, and stood on the platform. The feudal lords from all directions lined up on both sides according to the direction of their respective territories, and bowed to Yu the Great in unison. Yu the Great also bowed in return on the platform.

After the ceremony, Yu the Great addressed the feudal lords in a loud voice: "I am of meager virtue and limited ability, insufficient to command respect. I have gathered you all for this grand assembly in the hope that you will understand my earnest criticism, admonition, and exhortation, so that I may recognize my faults and correct them. I have worked tirelessly to pacify the waters and control the land, and though I have borne some minor burdens, the one thing I have always been most mindful of in my life is pride."

"The late emperor often used this to admonish me: 'If you are not arrogant, no one in the world can compete with you in ability; if you are not boastful, no one in the world can compete with you in merit.' If I am arrogant or boastful, please tell me to my face, otherwise you will be teaching me to be unrighteous! I will listen attentively to everyone's teachings."

Everyone knew that Yu the Great was ordained by Heaven. The feudal lords who originally had opinions about Yu the Great showed respect and admiration after seeing his attitude, and their original doubts were dispelled. From then on, the people were united in their hearts.

After the Tushan Conference, to show their respect, the various feudal lords would often come to Yangcheng to present gold, which is bronze.

Later, as the amount of copper offered by the nine provinces increased year by year, Yu the Great used the gold presented by the various feudal lords to cast nine large tripods, namely the Jizhou Tripod, Yanzhou Tripod, Qingzhou Tripod, Xuzhou Tripod, Yangzhou Tripod, Jingzhou Tripod, Yuzhou Tripod, Liangzhou Tripod, and Yongzhou Tripod.

The nine bronze tripods each correspond to one of the nine provinces, and each tripod is decorated with the mountains, rivers, famous products, rare birds and animals of that province.

The Nine Tripods symbolize the nine provinces, with the Yu Province Tripod being the central one, representing Yu Province as the central hub. The Nine Tripods were brought together in Yangcheng, the capital of the Xia Dynasty, to signify that Yu the Great had become the ruler of the nine provinces, and that the world was now unified.

On the day the Nine Tripods were cast, nine dragons appeared, who were the nine sons of the Ancestral Dragon: Qiuniu, Yazi, Chaofeng, Pulao, Suanni, Baxia, Bian, Fuxi, and Chiwen.

The nine dragons forced out their essence and blood, merging it into the nine cauldrons, which made the Nine Provinces Cauldrons even more wondrous, gathering the fortunes of both the human and dragon races.

If the Nine Provinces Cauldrons are activated together, a huge barrier will be formed, called the Nine Provinces Barrier. It will cover the entire territory of the human race in the Nine Provinces, protecting the human race and resisting foreign enemies.

Yu the Great cast the Nine Tripods, finally achieving his goal and becoming the last of the Five Emperors. He then entered the Fire Cloud Cave to suppress the fate of the human race.

Before leaving, Yu the Great abdicated the throne to Yi, who was recommended by his ministers.

However, just after Yu the Great left, and before Yi could even secure his throne, Yu the Great's son Qi rebelled.

Qi killed Yi and succeeded Yu the Great to the throne, becoming the second emperor of the Xia Dynasty.

From then on, the "public domain" became the "family domain," and the abdication system was replaced by the hereditary system.

The Xia clan originally had the surname Si, but starting with Qi, they changed it to the name of their state, "Xia." At the same time, Qi stopped using the title "Bo" and instead used "Hou," becoming "Xia Hou Qi."

The rule following the Xia Dynasty was not stable, with frequent internal and external conflicts, and even the loss of the country. Although it was later regained, the Xia Dynasty only lasted for fourteen generations before it came to an end.

In its place came the Shang Dynasty. Founded by Tang, the Shang Dynasty grew powerful with the assistance of Yi Yin, Zhong Hui, and others. However, the last emperor of the Xia Dynasty, Jie, was tyrannical. Tang attacked and overthrew the Xia Dynasty, establishing a new regime.

This refers to the Shang Dynasty, also known as the Yin Shang. They established their capital at Hao, learning from the lessons of the Xia Dynasty's demise, and issued the "Tang Proclamation," demanding that their subjects "serve the people diligently and conscientiously," or face severe punishment. They emphasized "governing the people with leniency," allowing the remnants of the Xia state to retain their "Xia shrine," and even bestowing titles upon the descendants of Yu the Great.

The Shang Dynasty rose to power, and then came another long period of rule, but these were all mundane matters.

Meanwhile, Lin Yang secluded himself in the Undying Volcano, comprehending various laws and perfecting his own Dao of the World.

The world is developing rapidly, and countless living beings are being born.

With Lin Yang's secret efforts, the world became vibrant and lively.

Lin Yang simply left the Three Realms empty, allowing the beings of the vast world to perform.

He himself established a new Great Luo Heaven above the Thirty-Three Heavens.

This Great Luo Heaven is not visible to the beings of the Great Thousand Worlds. Lin Yang packed up his many possessions, such as the innate spiritual roots, the Yellow Plum, the Enlightenment Tea Tree, and so on.

They were all planted in the Great Luo Heaven, making it like an unparalleled sacred place for cultivation.

Moreover, all the laws and principles of heaven and earth, and the insights of countless beings, were also gathered towards the Great Luo Heaven by Lin Yang using his great methods.

Gathering the insights of all beings and the inspiration of heaven and earth is even more beneficial to the development of Lin Yang's world path.

Lin Yang's cultivation level also became more and more profound day by day, unfathomable.

On this day, Lin Yang was in seclusion when he suddenly heard a system notification: "Ding! Haotian's younger sister, Yaoji, has descended to the mortal realm and fallen in love with Yang Tianyou. Host, do you wish to separate them?"

"Option 1: Accept the mission, separate Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou, and stop the love between immortals and mortals. You will receive Haotian's gratitude and three fragments of the Law of Love."

"Option 2: Refuse the mission and continue your seclusion to obtain three fragments of the Law of Dreams."

……

"A love story between a celestial being and a mortal? Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou, is Yang Jian about to be born?" Lin Yang couldn't help but get a little gossipy after hearing the system's notification.

This can be considered the first piece of gossip news in mythology and legends. A love between a celestial being and a mortal—who wouldn't be curious!

"System, I choose option two."

Lin Yang hesitated for a moment before making his choice. Love between immortals and mortals was none of his concern.

He had no reason to break them up, after all, it was true love.

Besides, if we really separate the two, what will happen to Yang Jian, the number one war god in the heavens?

Who will be reborn?

Having obtained three fragments of the Dream Law, Lin Yang immediately swallowed them, and various insights about the Dream Law flooded into his mind.

The Law of Dreams is also one of the Three Thousand Great Laws. Although it ranks relatively low, it should not be underestimated.

After all, the Guide, one of the two Western Saints, possessed the supernatural power of attaining enlightenment in a dream.

That's truly amazing! It allows one to enter the dreams of countless beings, experience endless cycles of reincarnation within those dreams, and thereby gain insights and improve one's own cultivation.

This can be described as a cheating-like supernatural ability.

However, now that Lin Yang has obtained three fragments of the Dream Law, his understanding of the Dream Law will surely be much deeper after refining them.

By then, Lin Yang might also be able to create a similar supernatural power.
