Chapter 1103: Zhan Ao
The five major clans have their own forces in the heavenly realm, and the Rakshasa Sea City is the place where the five clans gather, communicating with each other and prospering in business and travel.
In later generations, the Heavenly Realm had become a place where immortals lived, but this was not the case in ancient times. Positioned from heaven and earth, the heavenly realm is cloudy, empty, and difficult to build, so it is naturally not an ideal place to live. The Emperor Tian's founding of the Divine Court is also on Kunlun Mountain.
With the addition of the gods, Emperor Juncai wantonly divided the feudal princes, the Eastern Qilin, the Southern Phoenix, the Central Plains Pixiu, and the Northern Giant Kun were all extremely important feudal states. In the world of the Warring States, the Qilin King was replaced by an elk, and Pixiu was divided into three, which were Tianlu, evil spirits and Fuba. In the south, Peacock and Dapeng rose one after another, and once became the overlord of the Central Plains.
The bloodline of the Protoss is one lineage, supreme, enslaving the four spirits, arrogant and lascivious, and Emperor Jun married the two great gods of Sun Yao and Yueyao to create a prosperous era of the Protoss.
The Heavenly Realm and the Netherworld are still uncivilized places of smoke and rain, if it weren't for the sudden rise of the Dragon Clan, who later came to the top, swept Liuhe, mixed one and four spirits, and sent a large army to break through the Kunlun Divine Court, the children of the Protoss were forced to flee to the Heavenly Realm and overseas. There will be no exploration of the heavenly realm and overseas in the future.
It is human nature to be indulgent and disgusted, Taoism pays attention to health preservation, and Yang Zhu even preaches to pluck a Maoli world, unwilling to do it. Labor consumes people's energy, and naturally brings some tiredness, which is not pleased. The so-called 'born in adversity, died in peace', many civilizations in history have flourished and declined, all of which are related to this kind of being content with the status quo and not wanting to forge ahead.
'Flowing water is not rotten, the household hub is not beetle', the qi has yin and yang, and things have movement, once they are stagnant and lose their goals and directions, the internal organization will be corrupted and degenerate, and the gods will be arrogant externally, and the internal will compete for power and profit, and they will not die with each other?
People in the world are accustomed to immortals, and there is a big difference between actual gods and immortals. Later generations also used gods and immortals to represent different Taoist techniques. Shinto emphasizes the authority of order, and Xiandao advocates leisurely action. However, the immortal originally meant to move the guest, the god clan was defeated, and the emperor Jun led the minister of civil and military affairs to flee to the heavenly realm, which was regarded as a migrant.
With the support of the Yu Clan, Emperor Jun gradually gained a firm foothold in the Heavenly Realm and expanded the territory for the Protoss, while the overseas Protoss managed the three islands of the Ten Continents under the leadership of the Eastern Prince, the Western Queen Mother, and the Wind God Yu Yi, and achieved great results. Therefore, for a long period of time, the Protoss was almost divided between the two major forces of the Heavenly Realm and overseas. Although it is generally believed that the Celestial Divine Clan is a Shinto force, and the overseas Divine Clan is an Immortal Dao force, the two sides actually represent two Taoist tendencies.
In fact, the Protoss has differences in many aspects, such as refining the body and refining qi, the way of God and the way of immortals, infighting has always existed, and the differences between Taoism and method are just a kind of food. The two sects of later generations also continued the name of Shinto and Immortal, but the Yuan Shi Tianzun and the Tongtian Sect Master were both disciples of the Taiyuan Virgin. It is said that the Pangu God King is the ancestor of the body refining method and the master of Shinto. Our Lady of Taiyuan is the only one who can compete with the Pangu God King, and of course she is the founder of the Immortal Dao and Qi Refining Method.
In fact, soon after Pangu was positioned in heaven and earth, the essence was exhausted and materialized. He did not establish the Divine Court during his lifetime, and the name of the Divine King was also an additional nickname added by the Emperor. There is no evidence whether he advocated Shinto. However, in order to monopolize the power, the Taiyuan Holy Mother deposed the throne of the Emperor and the Heavenly God King, which split the Divine Court and had a very bad impact on the rule of the Protoss.
The Queen Mother of the West is the leading figure of the overseas god clan, but after the abdication of Emperor Jun, she entered the heavenly court, supported Fengmeng's father and son, and established the strict Shinto rule of the heavenly rules.
The heavenly realm and overseas are the difference between the terrain, the way of God and the way of immortals, the dispute between Taoism, the refining of the body and the refining of qi, the difference between the methods, and the three cannot correspond one by one, but in general, the overseas atmosphere is open, far away from the divine court, the ten continents and three islands are thousands of miles apart, it is difficult to establish a strong unified force, and the races are very rich, so the atmosphere of the immortal road is relatively strong. The Heavenly Realm is under the rule of Emperor Jun, and most of the people in power are noble relatives of the Protoss, and the country is easy to change, and the temperament is difficult to change, which inevitably brings some of the accumulated disadvantages of the Protoss to the Heavenly Realm. This is also the reason why the Protoss finally lost in the Great War between Heaven and Man.
The Heavenly Realm and the Netherworld were both barbaric lands before the power of the Protoss reached. The situation in the heavenly realm is much better than in the netherworld. Heaven and earth are opened, those who float lightly are the sky, and those who are heavy and turbid are condensed for the earth, which is easy to go to the sky and difficult to enter the ground. The Yu clan in the Four Spirits is accustomed to living in Gaofu, and once they cultivate immortal arts, they may live in the Heavenly Realm.
There are two kinds of elemental forces, one is yang buoyancy and the other is yin repulsion. Both kinds of elemental forces have a certain range, and within this range, it is difficult for the Three Realms to get rid of the influence of these two elemental forces. But if you escape from this range, in the vast desert universe, it is not something that the two Yuan forces can do.
Due to the very light air in the heavenly realm, some of the earthly realms are beyond the reach of even birds, so it is naturally very difficult to build a palace. This is also the reason why the celestial realm was enlightened relatively late. However, the mana of the Protoss is vast, and it is not impossible to live in the heavenly realm. Clothing, food, shelter and transportation are indispensable living conditions for human beings, and generally as long as these four conditions can be met, they can live and work in peace and contentment.
Huangtian's granddaughter, Weaver Girl, can weave the clouds into a splendid cloud brocade, called Yunjin Tianyi, also called Tiansun Jin, it is said that Tiansun Jin can change the shape, there is no gap, which solves the problem of clothing. Immortals can eat and drink dew, do not eat grains, and diet is not a problem. The mirage is said to be transformed by the breath of the mirage, which is the same as the Tiansun Jin. It's just that the Weaver Girl weaves the clouds into clothes, and the mirage is made into a pavilion.
As for travel, the fairy family can soar through the clouds and fog, and can travel with birds, so it seems that the four problems can be solved, but the climate is more complex and changeable than the earth.
The Protoss also has the method of refining weapons, and Xunzi has a saying, 'The gentleman's nature is not different, and the good and false are also things'. The way of artifacts is also a major method for the rise of the human race, and its importance is still above the refining of qi and the refining of the body. Human beings do not have the advantage of minions, and the strength of muscles and bones, the method of refining weapons has indeed played a vital role in the struggle between the human race and the four spirit strong races.
But after all, the artifact is something outside the body, and it was originally just a supplement to the Qi refining and body refining methods. Excessive dependence on artifacts has put human beings in a very embarrassing situation, and it is not a good thing to serve people and serve the mind as a form.
In essence, no matter how human beings oppose strange tricks and tricks, and how vigilant they are against man-made servitude, the way of utensils is still the greatest achievement of human beings. Although the Protoss has a long history of the two major methods of qi refining and body refining, the actual body refining method has an extremely high level. For example, the five immortal gourds of the wind god Yu Yishui Division, and the Daming Palace of the little god king, are all made by Qiwei. Daming Palace can go to the sky and enter the sea, even in the era when Ming Qin lived, it is a masterpiece and difficult to imitate.
It was not until the invasion of Buddhist forces and the establishment of the six realms of reincarnation that the netherworld really had the same status as the heavenly realm and the human realm. The development of the Heavenly Realm was much earlier than the Netherworld, and there were already many races in the Heavenly Realm long before Emperor Jun moved to the Heavenly Realm. Such as Shura, Yaksha, Garuda, Maharaja, plus the Celestial Clan, the Dragon Clan, the Kinara, and the Gandharva are the eight heavenly dragons that Buddhism often says.
As for the rakshasa is a hybrid of Shura and Yaksha, Luo is the Ra of Shura, and the Shasha is the fork of the Nakshatra. Although the Rakshasa came out late, the army was quite strong, and the Rakshasa Sea City was the most powerful of the Rakshasa people, and it was named the Rakshasa because of its talent.
Ming Qin asked about the location of the Rakshasa Sea City, but Mo Yin couldn't help it, so he had to agree to take him there.
In fact, the five major tribes were able to claim strength in the heavenly realm, and they also had a lot of connections with Western religions. Western religion has a vast influence in the universe and many believers, and it is said that there are five Buddhist countries, and Amitabha Buddha is the leader of Western Buddhism.
The monks of the Western Sect entered the earth to preach very early, because the Kunlun Protoss regarded the heavenly realm as an outcast land and was indifferent. The Western Religion was able to establish a Pure Land in the Heavenly Realm, and those who converted to the Western Religion were able to be reborn in the Pure Land, which was admired by the general public.
However, in many cases, the prosperity of religion is not the result of voluntary worship by the people, but by the promotion of political forces. Including the rise and fall of the hundreds of schools, it also has a lot to do with the likes and dislikes of those in power. Qin Shi Huang advocated magic, set in one, when Wenjing, obeyed Huang Lao's inaction, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed a hundred schools, set in one. Law, Taoism, and Confucianism were all promoted by political forces and were able to continue to develop, and Yang Zhu and Mo Zhai were known as Xianxue at that time, but they had no opportunity to spread politically, and could only gradually disappear.
Western Religion and Huang Lao Taoism are quite similar, both have a bit of negativity and escapism, although Western Religion is quite respected by some kings, after all, it cannot overwhelm Taoism, and it is set in one.
Instead, the Shura and Yaksha people absorbed the teachings of Western religions and founded their own religions. Shura and Yaksha also relied on this power to develop and grow, and they flourished for a while. Shura, Nakshatra, and Western religion are known as the three major sects of the heavenly realm, and their influence is unparalleled. Later, although the power of the Protoss and the Dragon Clan extended into the Heavenly Realm, the Dragon Clan did not have its own religion, and the Protoss had a close relationship with the Western Religion.
However, the Western Religion is only a branch of the Western world, not as good as the Protoss is a strong clan of the Earth, with the expansion of the power of the Protoss in the heavenly realm, the Western Religion is naturally dwarfed, and later moved to the West, when the Great War of the Gods, the three religions jointly discussed the list of gods, and the three religions refer to the exposition of the teachings, the interception of the religion and the Western Religion. Even among the twelve golden immortals of the teachings, there are Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun, Fuxian Zhenren, and Cihang Dao people who enter the Buddha from the Tao and change their courts. The deputy head of the teaching, Lamp Daoren, also traveled to the Western world to study, and later became the teacher of the Buddha.
After the reincarnation of the Buddha, he regrouped and established the Lingshan Dojo. King Jizo entered the netherworld and dominated the six realms of reincarnation, forming a pattern in which Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism ruled the three worlds.
The heavenly realm was originally born from the accumulation of qi, and according to legend, the heavens have nine folds, and after the gods ruled the heavenly realm, it was called thirty-six days, and this heaven refers to the heavenly realm, just like the states and counties of the earth boundary.
The ancestral dragon conquered the Kunlun Divine Court, the mountain god Kuafu was killed, and the god king Emperor Jun wandered to the heavenly realm, which was an unprecedented change. However, the Heavenly Realm is the gateway to the Earth, and the Protoss, as the master of the Earth, ignores the Heavenly Realm, and allows the Western Sect and Shura and Yaksha to sit on the throne, and in time, they will become a strong opponent of the Protoss. And the Protoss was obsessed with the dream of the prosperous era of the unification of the Three Yaos, and they did not know that the catastrophe was coming. If the Western Sect or Shura and Yaksha have strong forces in the Heavenly Realm, it will be difficult for the Protoss to gain a firm foothold in the Heavenly Realm, then there is no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth, and the descendants of the Pangu God King and the Taiyuan Holy Mother will probably be extinct.
Western religions, as well as Shura and Yaksha, all establish their own heavenly kingdoms in the heavenly realm, but they have different names, and Western religions are generally called the Pure Land of Bliss. Shura and Nakshatra are called the Kingdom of Heaven.
Rakshasa Haishi is the holy land of the three religions, it is said that the founding venerable Amitabha Buddha and Shura and Yaksha of the Western religion are all here to participate in meditation and enlightenment, but now it is in the hands of the Rakshasa people. But Shura and Yaksha are constantly attacking and fighting, and both want to recapture Rakshasa Sea City.
"What are you doing in Rakshasa City? It's very chaotic there, you are not from Garuda, so it's better not to go, lest you lose your life." ”
Mahin is Maharaja, who knows the details of the Rakshasa Sea City. The tribes of the Rakshasa Sea City are mixed, and the most powerful ones are the Rakshasas, followed by Shura and Yaksha, although Garuda and Maharaja are not as powerful as the three tribes, one is a bird of prey, the other is a poisonous insect, and they are enough to stand on their own. In recent years, there has been a mirage dragon king who escaped from Mirage City, called the Celestial Dragon. The ancestral dragon is also called the emperor of the earth, and the mirage dragon king calls himself Tianlong, which naturally has the meaning of fighting against the ancestral dragon.
However, the ancestral dragon swept away the six countries, mixed one and four spirits, and seven or eight out of ten of the entire realm were under its control, and the Sea Emperor Xuanwu also bowed his head to the vassals, and even the Empress Xuanwu gave up his hands, and attacked the Divine Court, swept the East China Sea, and the strength of the soldiers was unparalleled in ancient times, and it was not comparable to the Mirage Dragon King.
After the carved dragon came to the heavenly realm, he knew that he would benefit and disadvantage, and the mirage dragon king had the intention of serving the dragon clan, although the ancestral dragon did not levy a large army to attack the heavenly realm, the mirage dragon king could also be regarded as the forerunner of the dragon clan's forces.
The Divine Court was lost, and the Divine King Emperor Jun led the nobles of the Divine Clan to migrate to the Heavenly Realm, also known as the Heavenly Realm. This is what Buddhism calls the Eight Heavenly Dragons. Emperor Jun encountered a great chaos and was in danger, not only tried his best to win over the Yu clan and marry the phoenix princess Huang'e. After giving birth to Lu Press, he was named the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses and recovered the Kunlun imperial capital. The famous female god of war Jiutian Xuannu is also a hero of the Yu clan, and Emperor Jun named her the princess of Yangxian, the royal sister. The Nine Heavens Xuannu led the Tiangang Earth Demon to defeat the dragon army in the galaxy and shocked the Three Realms. At that time, there was a saying in the heavenly realm that 'gods and feathers share the heavenly realm'.
Emperor Jun was once very close to the Western Religion, the Western Religion was far more peaceful than the Shura Religion and the Yaksha Religion, and the Western Church monks were mostly keen on preaching, and had no political ambitions. Moreover, the Western Sect has been preaching in the Heavenly Realm for a long time, and its power is deep-rooted, far more trustworthy than Shura and Yaksha, and Di Jun also wants to use the influence of the Western Sect to make the Heavenly Race accept the God Race.
Whether it is the Western Religion during the Great War of the Gods, or the Lingshan during the Westward Journey to the Peaceful Demons, they can take advantage of the trend and expand the influence of Buddhism step by step, and this judgment of the situation alone is very accessible, which is also the reason why the Western Religion has existed in the world.
