Chapter 195: Wen Zhong
Hearing Candle Dragon mention Wen Zhong's name, everyone's faces had different expressions.
However, there was a little more respect in everyone's expressions, and it was not difficult to see from everyone's expressions that everyone seemed to be familiar with the name.
Because in that battle of the gods that has been passed down for thousands of years, Wen Zhong is undoubtedly an extremely key figure.
Putting aside what the truth was like back then, in our cognition, the battle of the gods that has been handed down for thousands of years in later generations is actually a war between exposition and interception.
And the war between the exposition of the religion and the interception of the religion, to put it bluntly, is the war between the legendary Sanqing Venerable God, the Yuan Shi Tianzun and the Tongtian Sect Master.
In the legend, Taishang Laojun, Yuan Shi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master are collectively known as Taoist Sanqing, but although these three people belong to the same Taoist gods, but they have developed their own sects, among which Taishang Laojun is in charge of the human religion, Yuan Shi Tianzun leads the exposition, and the Tongtian Sect Master carries forward the teaching, although the three are different from each other, but the teachings are different.
Yuan Shi Tianzun regarded himself as the Pangu Orthodox, the exposition established by him also believed in merit-based admission, there were many scattered immortals in the Yuxu Palace, among which there were countless people with deep roots, and the disciples under the door were strictly selected, rather lacking than indiscriminate, and their second generation disciples were called twelve golden immortals by later generations.
And the Tongtian Sect Master is diametrically opposed to the Yuan Shi Tianzun.
The interception of the sect is actually the interception of the heavenly machine, so the interception of the sect established by the master of the Tongtian Sect does not pay too much attention to the roots of the disciples, the interception of the sect respects the Tao of nature, inherits the unity of heaven and man, the so-called avenue of fifty, of which the Tianyan forty-nine and a line of life escapes, and the interception of the sect is to intercept this line of vitality.
It is precisely because the Tongtian Sect Master does not pick the roots and bones of the sect, resulting in most of the disciples of the sect being transformed into shapes for the cultivation of various beasts and birds and foreign bodies, so it is often called not authentic enough.
However, there is no doubt that under such conditions, the people of the sect are naturally far superior to the sect, unlike the only twelve golden immortals who can do it, there are many disciples of the sect, in addition to the elite disciples of the inner sect, there are even no less than 3,000 disciples in the outer sect, so they enjoy the reputation of having no class and ten thousand immortals.
In the legend, the master of Tongtian Sect has eight personal disciples, one of whom is named Our Lady of the Golden Spirit, whose status is second only to the senior brother Duobao Daoren, and is respected as the head of the female immortals by the sect people.
In the final battle of the Ten Thousand Immortal Array, Our Lady of Jin Ling first shot and killed Princess Longji and the traitor Hong Jin, and then fought against Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun, Fuxian Zhenren, and Cihang Dao people.
By virtue of this battle alone, the majesty of the Holy Mother of Jin Ling was unobstructed, and when the war was over, when Jiang Ziya did the thing of sealing the gods, he was even more named the Holy Mother of Jin Ling as the god of Kangong Doumu, this god is the head of the stars, and the status is extremely high, so it is not difficult to see how profound the cultivation of this Golden Spirit Holy Mother is.
However, what exactly is the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit is not a question that we should think about now, the reason why I think of this person is entirely because Wen Zhong mentioned by the candle dragon just now is actually a person in the sect, and Wen Zhong is from the disciple of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit.
In the legend, Wen Zhong is a disciple of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, who is good at changing the changes of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, the black unicorn must be thousands of miles, holding male and female double whips, the first born with three eyes, the middle eye has magical powers, the white light can distinguish the traitorous and loyal liver, the heart of the people is black and white, and it is quite prestigious in the interception of religion.
In the interception of the sect, Wen Zhong is a disciple of the Holy Mother of Jinling, and in the world, Wen Zhong's identity is the patriarch of the three dynasties of Yin Shang.
When Wen Zhong went on a long-term expedition to the North Sea, the king of Zhou was unguarded and arrogant and lascivious, and when Wen Zhong returned to the court, he beat the traitorous ministers angrily, and asked the king to reform himself with a golden whip, thinking that the king of Zhou would be able to change his past wrongs, but unfortunately the war in the East China Sea broke out again, Wen Zhong led the army to recruit again, and after he did not supervise, the king became more arrogant and lascivious, and even more than before.
Due to the brutality of the king of Zhou, Xiqi finally raised an army to attack Xiqi, Wen Zhong had to attack Xiqi in order to protect Yin Shang Jiangshan, he relied on his prestige on weekdays, called on many sectarian friends to come to help, but unfortunately he was finally defeated by the number of days, and died in the battle of the dragon in the clouds.
When the battle of the gods ended, Wen Zhong was even named the Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Thunder Puhua Tianzun by Jiang Ziya, this is the highest god of the thunder department, the main life and death of withering glory, good and evil rewards and punishments, slaying demons and subduing demons, commanding thunder, according to the Tianxin Avenue, down to help the underworld.
There is no doubt that the power of thunder is the most powerful force in the world, and those who are in charge of this power must cultivate to a high level, and they must be impartial and selfless, just from the fact that Wen Zhong was able to obtain such a divine position, it is not difficult to see how important this person's existence is, and even Jiang Ziya, who is hostile to him, is impressed by it.
Moreover, looking at the battle of the gods that was circulated in later generations, it is not difficult for us to find that Wen Zhong's death was an extremely important turning point, and it was from Wen Zhong's death that Yin Shang's country was officially declared to be at an end.
We can even say without exaggeration that if there was no Wen Zhong, the Shang Dynasty would definitely fall one step earlier, even if Wen Zhong hugged half of the Yin Shang with his own strength, I believe that no one would express the slightest dissent.
What's more important is that Wen Zhong did not do it for himself, but completely for the Shang Dynasty, throughout his life, there has never been half a stain, he is profound, virtuous, not afraid of power and has never bullied the weak, for Yin Shang, Wen Zhong's existence is equivalent to Jiang Ziya in Xiqi.
How can we not show the respect we deserve for an existence like Wen Zhong?
Thinking of this, I suddenly understood the meaning of what the candle dragon had just said.
Although Ji Chang and Ji Fa are wise and martial kings, they don't have too advanced cultivation, and even with the help of capable people, Xiqi doesn't have a master who can lead them.
But the Shang Dynasty is different, Wen Zhong is not only a profound cultivator, but also a veteran of the three dynasties, even the king of Xuan is afraid of it, the same team composed of capable people and strange people, under the leadership of Wen Zhong, will definitely exert far more strength than usual.
If Xiqi has been in a state of no one to lead, wouldn't it be inevitable to lose in the end?
