Volume 1: The Hidden Dragon Chapter 1: Prologue

Next Chapter

At the beginning of the primeval period, Hongmeng was not opened, and there was only a chaotic void in the universe, with no time and no space. In this void, I don't know that after tens of millions of years, a primordial creature was born from the chaos, and he was the Pangu God.

"Heaven and earth are opened, the sun is clear for the sky, and the yin is turbid for the earth. Pangu is in it, nine changes a day, God is in the sky, and the earth is holy. ”

The great god of Pangu was angry and gave birth to divine power, he split the chaos with an axe, and the chaotic qi was divided into two, the clear qi rose to the sky, and the turbid qi sank to the earth.

Pangu feared that the heavens and the earth would fall back into chaos, and he stood tall for 18,000 years. Eighteen thousand years later, Pangu's divine power was exhausted, and his body died.

Everything in the world begins with Pangu, and Pangu incarnates all things after his death, with the head being the four mountains, the eyes being the sun and the moon, the blood being the rivers and the sea, the hair being the grass and trees, the air being the wind, and the sound being thunder.

After Pangu opened the world, the aura between heaven and earth was thick, and all kinds of gods were born. There is the ancient god Nuwa, who made people by kneading the soil and refining stones to make up the sky, which is to protect the ancestral gods of mortals.

Although mortals and thousands of living beings are endless, they also suffer from natural and man-made disasters, such as torrential rains, mountain floods, droughts and plagues, and wars. Therefore, cultivating immortals and practicing the Tao is prevalent in the world, whether it is all living beings or grass and tree spirits, they all want to absorb the aura of heaven and earth to forge their own bodies, knock on the door of heaven and earth to live forever.

Over time, the aura between heaven and earth became thinner and thinner, and the turbid qi that was pressed by Pangu with vast divine power under the Nine Shadows faintly showed signs of rising and raging.

Once the turbidity is broken out of the earth from under the Nine Shadows, the mortal world will turn into a void and chaos again, and the thousands of living beings in the heavens and the earth will no longer exist.

When the rivers and mountains were crumbling, the founder of Hongxuanzong, Ye Hongtianzun, was enlightened by the ancient god Fuxi, and joined hands with Wuxiang Zen Master, the abbot of Qixia Temple, to go to Buzhou Mountain, the far north, to find the traces of the candle dragon.

Walking with a candle to illuminate the underworld, the day is not good, how can the candle dragon shine?

The candle dragon is also known as "candle nine yin", which means candle shines nine shades. The candle dragon is the ancestor of ten thousand dragons, and he is also the god of the underworld who guards the nine netherworlds. When Pangu was dying, he realized the huge hidden danger buried by the death of the underworld, so he used the last tendon to turn into a candle nine yin to suppress the netherworld qi in Buzhou Mountain.

However, after guarding the entrance to the underworld for 30,000 years, the candle dragon moved his mortal heart, and he couldn't help but desert and sneak into the mortal world to be chic and happy. As the aura of the mortal world is getting thinner and thinner, coupled with the candle dragon's heart ape, the underworld under Buzhou Mountain is about to move, and it is almost about to break out of the ground.

The Yehong Tianzun of Hongxuanzong and the Wuxiang Zen Master of Qixia Temple are known as Taoist ancestors and Buddha heads, but they are mortal bodies after all, how can they compete with the Pangu bloodline candle dragon?

Yehong Tianzun and Wuxiang Zen Master fought with the candle dragon for two days and one night at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, just when the two of them were about to run out of oil and the lamp dried up, the great god Fuxi appeared and pulled the soul of the candle dragon out of his body, and tightly covered Buzhou Mountain with his thousand-mile-long red dragon body, and his soul was beaten into the nine deep abysses and never saw the light of day.

Only the flesh and blood of the candle dragon can suppress the death breath of the underworld, and only the sealing of the soul of the candle dragon can allow the survival of thousands of living beings in the mortal world.

Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are dogs! From the emperor to the ants, they are all dogs in the eyes of the heavens. Although the great god of Fuxi turned the tide, he thought that it was against the way of heaven, and he did save thousands of living beings in the mortal world by sealing the candle dragon, but it was a little unfair to the candle dragon!

In order to rescue the candle dragon, the dragon clan launched an extremely fierce battle with the Taoist and Buddhist factions under the leadership of the four dragon kings.

The dragon is the supreme beast, and the demon clan has always been headed by the dragon clan. After the dragon clan provoked the war, the demon clan who had lived in the wild land of the northwest for a long time followed the dragon clan and flocked to the battlefield, for a time the demon wind was everywhere, the charm and the ghost were rampant in the world, the weak mortals were powerless to resist, and the corpses in the northwest border were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river.

At this time, the Central Plains was in the period of the Warring States Period, in order to stop millions of demon clans, the seven countries invariably turned the spearhead and sent elite armies to fight with the demon clans in the three states of Xiliang. In the end, at the cost of killing more than 800,000 soldiers, the Seven Kingdoms finally drove the blood-drinking demon clan back to the northwest wilderness.

The Taoist and Buddhist factions were worried about the comeback of the dragon clan, and in order to prevent future troubles, they wiped out the dragon clan, and the four dragon kings and dragon sons and grandsons were killed by the masters of the Central Plains one after another. This twelve-year-long war, which affected the three races of the human race, the demon race, and the dragon race, was called the "Battle of the Dragon Hunt".

After the outbreak of the "Dragon Hunting War", among the Seven Kingdoms, the Zhou State sent the least troops and suffered the least damage, and has been secretly recuperating for twelve years. After the "Battle of the Dragon Hunt", the Zhou State swept through the Central Plains while the other six countries were still breathing, and spent ten years annexing Wu, Yue, Chu, Qi, Zhao, and Wei, pacifying the Central Plains in one fell swoop, and building the capital in Luoyang, and naming the country "Northern Zhou".

After the Northern Zhou unified the country and implemented Confucianism, governed the world with loyalty and filial piety, and after decades of hard work by Chu Lie and Chu Xingyun two generations of emperors, now the four seas are peaceful, and the country is peaceful and peaceful.

Now in the territory of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the people who cultivate immortals and practice the Tao are like carps crossing the river, and the vast land of Shenzhou hides the dragon and the crouching tiger, so there are many sects in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and there are many capable people.

Since Yehong Tianzun swept away the demonic energy of the Central Plains with one person and one sword, the rivers and lakes are righteous and prosperous, the Taoists are headed by Hongxuanzong, Cangming Palace, and Longhu Mountain, and the Buddhists are respected by Qixia Temple and Wuzen Temple.

Our story starts with the seven disciples of Hongxuanzong who went down the mountain to travel the rivers and lakes.
