Chapter Fifty-Eight: Ancient Secrets
"When this world was formed, I don't know how many years later, creatures and gods were born together. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"There are so many kinds of creatures that it's hard to count them all. But there are only six gods. β
"One candle shade is in charge of the cycle of life and death, the alternation of day, and the change of seasons. β
"The second Emperor Wa is in charge of living beings. β
"The third vertical is in charge of the rules of the world and formulates horizontal and vertical circles. β
"Its four days of Wu are in charge of the water spirit. β
"Its five sides are in charge of the fire spirit. β
"Its six ratios are in charge of the soul. β
"The first five gods reside in the heavenly palace on earth and are called white gods, while the latter reside in the ghost domain and are self-contained. β
"The six gods of black and white have their own duties, and they are mandated by Heaven to help govern this world. β
"At that time, the living beings were not allowed to practice the Dharma, nor did they have supernatural powers to exercise, so they only submitted to the jurisdiction of the gods. β
"Time has passed in a hurry, and I don't know how many years. Under the rule of the true gods and the demigods and sub-gods that the true gods said to have created, the world spent these times in an orderly manner. Until one day, they came!"
The old man's voice was lowered at that moment.
His pupils dilated, and his body trembled slightly, as if he had really lived through those terrible years.
"They, evil gods?" asked Su Changan.
"Hmm. The old man nodded with a calm brow. "Yes, it's coming. β
"They have the power of gods, if not more powerful, and can bewitch and assimilate living beings. β
"Just like Gu Ning?" asked Su Changan again.
"Well, you mean that friend of yours, yes, that's it, they can eat away at the heart of any living being, step by step, leading it to the abyss, and finally merging with it. β
"At the beginning of that great war, the Protoss were defeated one after another, and countless demigods and sub-gods died in that war. In order to turn the tide, they decided to teach the living beings the method of cultivation, using the combat power of those living beings to consume the evil gods, and finally giving them a head-on blow. So they gathered millions of creatures, and with their flesh and blood they dragged down the army of the evil gods and won the battle. β
When Su Changan heard this, his brows furrowed, and he interrupted the old man's words again.
He asked, "But I've heard Candle Yin say that they fought with the creatures, and they didn't mean to sacrifice them. β
The old man was not annoyed at all when he heard this, he smiled and said with interest: "What I heard there must be the history of the Protoss. β
"But history is like this, different angles, right and wrong are different, just like Tuoba Yuanwu who is raging in the Central Plains now, you regard him as a demon, but his barbarians will regard him as a hero. β
Su Changan nodded clearly, feeling that this old man was very reasonable, so naturally he couldn't refute it.
"And then?" he asked again.
"And thenβ" the look on the old man's face turned into nostalgia again, and he said, "Then the true gods who had consumed so much fell into a deep sleep, and the demigods and sub-gods under their seats began to rule the world. β
"The beings who have been able to recuperate have the means to practice, and they have become stronger, more and more powerful, strong enough to build rich and prosperous kingdoms. β
"But there is no end to desire, and one day, the strongest in the world finally got tired of living in the shadow of the gods, and they joined forces with some of the demigods and sub-gods who were also tired of being ruled by the true gods, and went up to kill the heavenly palace and defeat the sleeping gods. β
"And then they replaced the gods and became celestials?" asked Su Changan, a story he had heard in the mouth of Candle Yin, and it was not new to him.
But who knows, the old man shook his head.
"It's not that simple. β
"The gods were sealed in the shrine that once sealed the evil gods, and of course not all gods were sealed. The true god is too powerful, and after the Dao of Consciousness is not the opponent of everyone, the two true gods of Bi Fang and Tianwu turned into the blood of the gods and reincarnated in the world, and the black god according to Bibi also escaped because he was in the capital of Xudu, but the gate of the capital was also sealed by everyone. β
Speaking of this, the old man not only glanced in the direction of Gu Xianjun outside the house, either intentionally or unintentionally.
"The victorious creatures began to share the fruits of victory with the rebellious Protoss, and according to the previous agreement, they were supposed to rule the world together, but the creatures were unwilling to share the fruits with the Protoss, so another great war began. Just like their surprise attack on the dormitory of the true god, the rebellion of the living beings still caught the rebellious gods off guard, and after paying a huge sacrifice, most of the gods were sealed in the shrine like their true gods, and only a few remnants were still fleeing. β
"They first shared the divinity of Emperor Wa and Candle Yin, and possessed the power as powerful as the true gods, and at the same time gained the right to dominate the Heavenly Palace. β
Su Changan's brows furrowed again at that time, and he felt that something seemed to be missing from the old man's words. "What about Zhuhai, why don't the celestials devour the divinity of Zhuhai?"
"It's a little different from the true gods. The old man said, his voice becoming a little strange at that point. "In a sense, the living beings can defeat the true gods with the help of Zhuhai?"
"Zhuhai's help?" Su Changan became more and more puzzled, the living beings wanted to slaughter the gods, and why did the Zhuhai as a god help the living beings? There are obvious loopholes in this matter.
"I told you, it's a long story, and you'll have to be a little patient. The old man glanced at Su Changan angrily, but he still explained very patiently: "The evil gods who attacked this world before, they have the power to bewitch the souls of living beings, and from a certain point of view, gods are also living beings..."
"Do you mean to say that Zhuhai was bewitched by the evil gods?" Su Changan asked with a frown, the strength of those so-called evil gods seemed to have far exceeded his previous expectations.
"Nope. But who knew that the old man shook his head again after hearing this, and denied Su Changan's speculation with great certainty. "It's the one who suspects that there is a true god and is being deceived by those evil creatures. That's why the evil gods can discover this world. β
In other words, it was somebody, or some true god, who summoned the evil gods into the world. β
Su Changan's body was stunned at that time, he never thought that there was such a complicated reason for this.
"You say that the true gods have summoned the evil gods into this world, but those evil gods do not belong in this world, so what are they, and where did they come from?"
"I don't know where they came from, and I can't imagine what the world is like outside of ours, but I do know that the gods are extremely evil. β
"They grow in darkness, bloom in death, and thrive in destruction. β
"They don't know how many worlds they devoured before they came to our world. β
"They are full of the hatred and evil of this world, and they know nothing but killing and destruction. β
"They are the calamity of all living beings!"
