361 Dragon and Phoenix Speeches
In fact, according to Yuan Shi's requirements, only Zu Long, the only candidate who cultivated to the Emperor Dao, was qualified to be the Jade Emperor.
However, the relationship between the gods and demons deteriorated, and Yuan Shi had no control over the demon clan, so although Zu Feng did not cultivate into the Emperor Dao, he had to forcibly compete for the position of Jade Emperor.
Yuan Shi didn't care in his heart, the Jade Emperor was not so easy to be, and the world only saw the benefits brought by becoming the Jade Emperor: lofty status and authority, a large number of merits, and a predictable sub-holy realm.
But in fact, God rewards hard work, and if you don't pay, you won't get anything in return, if you don't know the responsibilities that you should fulfill as an emperor, you can't be a Jade Emperor, and you can't manage the flood and famine.
If you want to understand what the obligations of the emperor are, you must cultivate your own imperial avenue, the imperial avenue, so that a monk can understand the obligations of the emperor and know how he should govern the world.
The position of the Jade Emperor is just an opportunity for the Emperor Avenue to practice the Great Dao.
Proving the Emperor's Avenue only means that the Heavenly Dao agrees with your concept, but only when you practice the concept and are recognized by the heavens and the earth, the Heavenly Dao will give merit rewards and help the Jade Emperor break through the mixed yuan and achieve the sub-sage.
This is the first condition set by Yuan Shi, the fundamental reason why only by cultivating the Emperor's Dao can he become the Jade Emperor.
Without the assistance of the Emperor's Dao, the Jade Emperor can't manage the flood at all, if the flood and the world are governed into a mess, then the Jade Emperor will not get merit but the catastrophe, if the Jade Emperor is punished by the catastrophe, all the monks who hold priesthood in the heavenly court will inevitably die, and they will be beaten into ashes by the catastrophe.
So does Zu Feng have a chance to prove his own Emperor Dao? There is absolutely no chance.
Don't forget, the Imperial Avenue was founded by the beginning of the Yuan, and without the recognition of the Yuanshi, no one can prove the new Imperial Avenue.
This is like the great avenues of the world all originate from the way of heaven, if you don't follow the laws of the way of heaven, and the way of heaven does not recognize it, who can prove it?
Yuan Shi said to Taishang and Tongtian that as early as when the demon clan first came out, he was ready to deal with the demon clan.
Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor are a bureau set up by the Yuan Shi for all living beings in the wilderness, including the demon clan, if Yuan Shi agrees, the position of the Jade Emperor can allow him to ascend to the sky in one step and reach the sub-holy realm of true spirit immortality. If Yuan Shi does not agree, this is a bait, a bait to induce it to self-destruct.
The Emperor Dao of the Yuan Shi controlled the heavens and the earth with his own selfishness, which was not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao, so the Heavenly Dao would deprive the Yuan Shi of the status of the Lord of the Heavenly Tribulation, in order to take back the final ruling power. Otherwise, Yuan Shi will be an athlete and a referee, and there will be no need for the Heavenly Dao to exist.
In fact, there is more than one means prepared by Yuan Shi, Heavenly Court and Jade Emperor are just one of Yuan Shi's means to deal with the demon clan, and they are the most effective strategy.
The reason why it is the best strategy is because if this bureau wants to be effective, it will take a long time, and it may take hundreds of calamities to see the effect. For such a long time, who knows what the Lord of the Daoless of the Heavenly Court will do? The relatives and friends that Yuan Shi cared about may suffer because of the mediocre behavior of the Lord of the Daoless.
Although Yuan Shi agreed, he would not let go completely, Yuan Shi did not go to the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, but he had been watching the progress of this matter with a cold eye.
Zu Long took the initiative to ask Yuan Shi to punish the Feng and Lin clans for Yuan Shi, but so far, Zu Long still hasn't made a move, and Yuan Shi has roughly guessed Zu Long's plan.
However, it is not ruled out that Zu Long is playing with his heart and using a delaying strategy, taking the opportunity to let the demon clan digest the luck of the Protoss that he has taken away, and then stand on his own.
After all, Zu Long has also cultivated the Emperor's Dao, the emperor, the supreme supreme, without the heart of the supreme, he can't become an emperor, and he can't prove the Emperor's Dao.
The dispute between the Jade Emperor was also used to guard against one of the ancestors of the ancestral dragon.
Emperor Dao, you need to trust your subordinates, but you can't absolutely trust your subordinates.
In the attention of Yuan Shi, the election competition for the Jade Emperor began.
Fu Xi said: "Four fellow Daoists, as the candidate for the Jade Emperor of the previous Jade Emperor Yuan Shi Heavenly King, do you have anything to say to everyone before the competition?"
Lord Lin said: "Yes, what I want to say is that in this competition of the Jade Emperor, Zu Long and Zu Feng have the Taoism of the quasi-saint upper rank, and this seat only has the quasi-saint middle level, and he knows that he is shallow in learning, so this seat decided to withdraw from this competition." ”
Lord Lin's withdrawal, as expected by everyone, Fu Xi was not surprised.
Seeing this, Zulong said: "Since the Lord of the Lin Daoist has withdrawn, then this seat will thank you first, before the competition, I really want to say a few words, if you Taoist friends raise love, let this seat succeed the Jade Emperor, this seat will lead the common development of all ethnic groups in the flood wilderness, and push the flood wilderness civilization to a higher level." ”
After Zu Long finished speaking, he began to introduce his plan, if Zu Long inherited the Jade Emperor, he would mainly coordinate the contradictions of the various races in the flood wilderness in the early stage, so that the various tribes in the flood wilderness would recognize the dominance of the demon clan.
In the medium term, it will focus on the development of the demon civilization, encourage the strong of the demon clan to preach more, set up a special preaching department in the heavenly court, and send special personnel to preach and solve doubts for the younger generations of the demon clan, so as to improve the overall strength of the demon clan.
In the later stage, that is, waiting for the ancestral dragon's True Dragon Tianzi Dao to break through to the mixed yuan realm, it proved that in the demon clan, the road to sanctification is also a feasible strategy. Zu Long will use the Propaganda Department to implement the method of acquired sanctification among the demon clan, and strive to cultivate more than ten acquired quasi-saints in the demon clan.
Zu Long's words can be said to be his campaign speech, and it is one of his governance programs, and many powerful people of the demon clan nodded after hearing it, even the great powers of the Fenglin camp also felt the same way.
Especially Kunpeng, the second son of Zu Feng, he felt that this mission department was specially set up for his demon master avenue, Kunpeng was thinking, the situation of the demon clan was already very clear, and the matter of Zu Long's succession to the Jade Emperor was a foregone conclusion, and when Zu Long succeeded to the throne, should he talk to his father and improve the relationship with the Dragon and Turtle clans.
Zu Feng listened to Zu Long's speech, his brows furrowed, Zu Long's plan refused to be feasible for the time being, Zu Long had indeed made a lot of preparations for becoming the Jade Emperor, and he didn't seem to be thinking about what he would do after becoming the Jade Emperor.
In Zu Feng's opinion, when Yuan Shi sat on the Jade Emperor, it seemed that he didn't do anything, and the ten calamities would not come to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall once, and the ones who were really in charge of the things of the Heavenly Court were the four great gods of Zu Long, Zu Feng, Lin Lord and Xuan Turtle.
From the perspective of race, it is the same, the Protoss holds the most noble priesthood in the Heavenly Court, and then easily earns a lot of merit, while the Demon Clan undertakes the main work of the Heavenly Court, tired and tired, but does not get any merit.
Zu Feng believes that Yuan Shi is in the name of the Jade Emperor and Heavenly Court, letting the demon clan be the god clan and work for Yuan Shi himself.
This is also the reason why Zu Feng made up his mind to declare war with the Protoss, if he can't expel the forces of the Protoss from the Heavenly Court, in the long run, the Protoss will develop faster and faster, and eventually catch up with the Demon Clan, and then blast the Demon Clan down from the throne of the protagonist of heaven and earth.
Now that Zu Feng listened to Zu Long's speech, Zu Feng found that Zu Long was indeed more suitable to serve as the Jade Emperor than himself and Yuan Shi.
However, Zu Feng fought for the position of the Jade Emperor, just to emulate Yuan Shi, and then use the merits of the Jade Emperor to prove that he was a saint, as for what Honghuang would become under the rule of Zu Feng, Zu Feng didn't care. For a monk, there is nothing more important than one's own deeds.
Thinking of this, Zu Feng strengthened his determination even more.
After Zu Long's speech, Zu Feng said: "Zu Long Daoyou said very well, according to Zu Long Daoyou's plan, especially the establishment of the Mission Department, the strength of our demon clan will inevitably increase significantly. ”
"But!" Zu Feng's tone changed, and he said, "The growth of a race mainly depends on the efforts of the clansmen themselves, and the teachings of the Mission Department are only external forces. ”
Zu Feng said: "This seat is not to say that external forces are not important, on the contrary, the demon clan is the race that needs to practice with the help of external forces, in fact, our demon clan cultivation basically relies on pills, spiritual objects and hunting enemies, devouring the enemy's flesh and blood These external force means, all the Taoist friends here, you can think about it, which of you has not relied on external forces to practice?"
After listening to Zu Feng's words, except for a few quasi-saints of the dragon clan and Da Luo, the rest of the demon clan powerhouses are all related, compared with the god clan and the Shura clan, the qualifications and comprehension of the witch and demon clan are too low, and without relying on external forces, the lich really can't practice.
The Wu clan is better than the demon clan, the Wu clan was born with the strength of the god realm, and some arrogant people can also cultivate to the realm of Daluo without relying on external forces.
And the demon clan, even Da Luo and the quasi-saint, have all taken pills and devoured the flesh and blood of their fellow clansmen, otherwise they would have died if they couldn't cultivate to today's realm.
Zu Feng saw that there were a few people in the Dragon Clan who didn't think so, and one of them was laughing at themselves for denying Zu Long's mission plan while trying to justify themselves, so as not to offend the people of the Demon Clan.
Note: Attention to this place, a small pit has been dug and will be filled in shortly.
Zu Feng snorted coldly in his heart and continued: "And if you want to talk about external forces, the most fundamental external forces are luck and merit, only with luck, our demon clan can break through to a higher realm, and only with merit can we suppress luck." And the path of merit is too difficult, so let's not talk about it for the time being, and if you can't do it, let's talk about luck. ”
Zu Feng changed his tone and said: "The luck of my demon clan, from the establishment of the demon clan to the present, has basically been fixed, so under Da Luo, the Taiyi of my demon clan is basically maintained at the number of 5,000, the true immortals are maintained at 60,000 all year round, the transformation realm is 10 million, the god realm is more than 100 billion, the Dan realm is 100 billion, and the qi realm is trillions. If the overall luck of the demon clan can't grow, this number won't change much. ”
"But. Zu Feng's tone changed again: "After the recent war between the gods and demons, the demon clan has seized most of the luck of the god clan, since the thirty or forty tribulations, the strength of the demon clan has been able to reach a higher level, the number of true immortals has exceeded seventy thousand, below the true immortals, the demon clan has increased by one percent, only Taiyi, because of time problems, has not yet recovered to the number of five thousand, but it is foreseeable that after a maximum of one hundred calamities, the number of Taiyi of the demon clan will reach six thousand, or even more." ”
Zu Feng said proudly: "This war of gods and demons has a huge impact on my demon clan, although this seat is unwilling to take credit, but I have to point out one point, there are two royal clans, in this war, what contributions have they made to our demon clan?"
Zu Feng's words stirred up waves in the heart of the demon clan's power.
If Zu Long's speech to compete for the Jade Emperor is to talk about the future and draw a beautiful blueprint for the demon clan, then Zu Feng's speech is to talk about the past and his contributions to the demon clan.
