As long as it involved an entire "race" in the Primordial World, it would definitely not be able to bypass the three small matters of "destiny", "negative karma", and "merit".
The ancient battle between the Phoenixes and the Dragons should be considered the first tribulation after the opening of the world.
At that time, the world had just been opened. Connate lifeforms occupied the mainstream, and the dragons and phoenixes were the overlords. Everyone basically did not have the concept of lifespan. Many living beings with poor potential slowly lived forever.
That was when the true Zenith Heaven was everywhere, and there were as many Golden Gods as dogs.
However, 90% of those powerful living beings had died in the battle between the dragons and phoenixes. The Primordial World had also been shattered. The structure of the five continents and the trichiliocosm had been formed since then.
If the Dao Ancestor had not turned the tide and killed the Fiend Ancestor who was causing trouble behind the scenes, and the world had accelerated the perfection of the Heavenly Dao and suppressed the final "climax" of the Great Tribulation in time, the world would have returned to chaos …
The battle was not just a battle between the dragon, phoenix, and Qilin races. The Dragons were the "Kings of Scales", the Phoenixes were the "Kings of Flying Feathers", and the Qilin were the "Kings of Walking Beasts". At that time, the Great Tribulation began with the dragons and phoenixes and engulfed almost the entire Primordial World.
The negative karma that the dragons and phoenixes carried was almost endless.
The final outcome of the battle between the dragons and phoenixes was clearly that the Dragons had won. The phoenixes and the Qilin, who did not deserve to be named the Great Tribulation, had almost withered.
The Dragons guarded the Sea Eye of the four seas and were plagued by negative karma. They had been weak since ancient times.
Even though they had been summoned by the Celestial Court, the tragedy of the East Ocean Sea Eye had occurred.
The third largest race in the ancient times, the Qilin race, had become a rare auspicious beast in the Primordial World. At the end of the ancient times, they were almost extinct …
The phoenix race was even worse. It was originally the "Feather King Clan". Now, only one or two clansmen were active. They were Kong Xuan and the Golden Roc.
Most of the other birds that claimed to have the bloodline of the phoenix race were just "subordinates" that followed behind the phoenix race back then. The true bloodline of the phoenix race contained the mystical ability of nirvana. It rarely appeared after the ancient times.
The Dragon race was different. They had always been working hard in the aspect of 'Dragon Mouth'. They had struggled since ancient times and had a large number of 'close relatives' in the world …
The problems that the Phoenixes were facing now were luck and bloodline.
The negative karma of the phoenix race was borne by the Origin Phoenix. The Origin Phoenix used its Nirvana mystical ability to suppress the undying volcano in order to ensure the continuation of the phoenix race's bloodline. Then, the responsibility of continuing the phoenix race fell on …
On Kong Xuan.
When Li Changshou heard this, he couldn't help but want to complain.
He felt that what Lord Origin Phoenix had entrusted to the wrong bird was a little …
Up until now, Kong Xuan still hadn't decided where his Yin and Yang belonged!
At this point, the problem of the Phoenix Clan was very clear — how to let the Phoenix Clan continue their bloodline, recover a little bit of luck, and gain a foothold in the Untainted Land again.
Kong Xuan said, "Our race has previously owed the Primordial World and has deep negative karma. Now, we only hope that our bloodline can continue.
He did not seek to prosper again. Dozens of clansmen were enough.
I don't wish for all of my clansmen to live forever. As long as the bloodline can be passed on and the phoenix clan can be seen in the world, that will be enough to comfort my mother. "
Li Changshou pondered for a while. Zhao Gongming, who was at the side, hugged his arms and helped to think.
On the other hand, Qiong Xiao pointed at the young girl from the Phoenix Clan who was serving tea and asked in confusion, "Then, how did she come about?"
Kong Xuan said, "Mother once gave me three drops of blood essence. It can be given to the birds that are similar to our bloodline and turn them into the phoenix race."
"Oh ~" Qiong Xiao was enlightened.
Zhao Gongming, who was at the side, said, "The theory of luck is mysterious and ethereal. Generally speaking, doing more good deeds and accumulating more merit will always be able to increase luck … right?"
"If it's that simple, I wouldn't be so troubled." Kong Xuan frowned and shook his head. "Merit is not related to luck."
"I have a way," Li Changshou said slowly. He picked up the tea at the side and raised his hand to take a sip.
The Lord Sage had asked him to take action, so he naturally could not stand by and watch.
Although he did not know if the Old Master of Taiqing wanted Kong Xuan to be closer to Ren School or if he had a bigger plan …
In fact, Li Changshou had already thought of a possibility that had a 90% chance of success.
The Mystic Bird gave birth to Shang Dynasty.
According to what Li Changshou knew, the totem of the Shang Nation was the Mystic Bird.
In ancient times, the Dragons had once become the totem of the human race because they had helped the human race. From then on, they had changed their luck and continued their life.
If what he was participating in now was the story of the Shang Dynasty, that matter would indeed be enough to attract the attention of the Lord Sage.
At the same time, it could also explain why Kong Xuan would protect the Shang Nation during the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.
There was no other reason. It was just related to interests.
Li Changshou put down the tea in his hand and had an idea. He smiled and said, "In ancient times, the Dragons had used that method. Why didn't the Phoenix Clan use it?"
Kong Xuan was not an ordinary person. Kong Xuan already understood what was going on when Li Changshou pointed it out.
Kong Xuan sighed and said, "Now that the human race has prospered, there is no chance to protect the human race. I'm just saying."
"That's not the case," Li Changshou said calmly. He was also vigilant. He was constantly sensing if the Heavenly Punishment would descend and if the Lord Sage would stop his train of thought.
However, he quickly confirmed that Kong Xuan's matter was related to the rise of the Shang Nation.
Li Changshou said,
"The destiny of the human race is concentrated in the South Continent. In the South Continent, there are many countries and wars everywhere. As the saying goes, they will be separated after a long time. The human race has not had a common leader for a long time. When a common leader rises, there will be a common leader.
The opportunity for the phoenix race is here.
If I had known where the heavenly fate was, I would have protected the future common leader in advance and made him use the divine bird of the phoenix race as his totem. Why would the phoenix race worry about not being able to stand? "
A mighty figure like Kong Xuan looked happy. He stood up and cupped his fists at Li Changshou.
"If you can help me with this matter, the phoenix race will owe you karma. Kong Xuan will also owe you a favor!"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you don't have to do that. If my senior brother was here, how could he not help you?
Senior Brother's matter is my matter. The entire Ren School is united. We will definitely help you with this matter.
However, there are two things that you need to understand. "
"Please speak."
Li Changshou's expression was serious as he spoke frankly.
"Firstly, it is normal for the dynasty to change in the mortal world. If the phoenix race gets what they want, please do not attack when the dynasty falls."
Those words were purely to plot against the Western Sect.
Kong Xuan entered the God Conferment Stage. He had originally beaten up Randeng and injured a few immortals of Chan School. In the end, Saint Zhun Ti jumped out and fought against the Five-colored Divine Light with the Wonderful Seven Treasures Tree.
Although that battle had made Kong Xuan famous, Kong Xuan's outcome was a little tragic. After being defeated by Zhun Ti, he was forcefully sent to the Western Sect.
After Lao Tzu transformed into a Buddha, Kong Xuan was arranged to be the Buddha's calamity. He swallowed the Buddha into his stomach and had his back broken by the Buddha. He became the Buddha Mother of the Buddhist Sect and lost his perfected Connate body …
Transforming into a Buddha was a huge scheme at the end of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. Li Changshou only knew that there was such a thing. He did not know the complicated implications and the final winner.
However, what happened to Kong Xuan was not Ren School. There was no romantic aura of the Primordial World at all.
The most beautiful script should not be …
Kong Xuan took the initiative to give up his perfected Connate body for the Great Daoist Master. He returned to the Yin and transformed into a woman. In the flames, he put on a rainbow dress, dyed his blush, and put on a phoenix crown. He walked to the backyard of the Tushita Palace with his head held high and chest puffed out.
"Xuandu! I want to marry you! "
Then, a mosquito lying on the tree beside him burst into tears. She was clearly the one who flew over first … "
Ahem, let's get down to business.
Li Changshou continued,
"Secondly, I don't dare to say that I'm 100% confident about this matter. When I return, I have to report to the Jade Emperor.
To be honest, the Celestial Court also has a series of plans regarding the incense offerings of the human race.
If the totem destiny is given to the phoenix race, it will not be a big deal for the Celestial Court. However, I still need you to express some goodwill to the Celestial Court. If you encounter the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals in danger when you travel outside in the future, please save them. "
"Sure! Of course! "
Kong Xuan agreed decisively.
"Let's discuss the general direction today," Li Changshou said. "When the situation in the South Continent changes in the future, I will invite you to come out of the mountain."
Kong Xuan hurriedly said that there was no hurry. However, Li Changshou used the excuse that "Senior Brother will definitely blame me if he finds out that I've neglected him" and forcefully changed the topic to serious matters.
In the seats next door, Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao looked at each other.
Zhao Gongming sent a voice transmission and sighed. "Third Sister, do you think Changgeng has such a plan since a long time ago? Why does it sound so logical? In such a short while, he has already made arrangements for the phoenix race. "
"It doesn't sound like it."
Qiong Xiao muttered,
"If he was really confident long ago, most of them would have done it in one go and said it directly.
As he spoke, he was thinking. Many of his words left room for leeway, and he also sounded hesitant. That was because he had not thought about it.
However, to be able to consider the Western Sect, the Celestial Court, the human race, and even lay the groundwork for this matter in such a short period of time, it's indeed impressive. "
Zhao Gongming sighed. "Ah, I feel like I've lived so many years in vain …"
"This is different. Brother, you're not good at thinking about these twists and turns. You're the wind. If you don't hit a wall, you won't turn."
Qiong Xiao said calmly, "Brother, if his cultivation level surpasses yours in the future, you'll be the one in trouble."
"You're still talking about me. At that time, won't you be inferior?"
"What's there to be afraid of? My sister-in-law has always been taken care of. Hmph! "
Hearing this, Zhao Gongming also chuckled a few times, feeling quite comfortable in both body and mind.
There was no pressure when he interacted with his brother-in-law and sister.
…
They stayed on Peacock Island for half a day. Before they left, Kong Xuan sent Li Changshou and the other two out.
Kong Xuan handed a jade token to Li Changshou. It was used to send a message. He said that he could repay the favor at any time.
In other words, he gave Li Changshou a chance to ask him to help.
Kong Xuan's personality was like that. Even if he wanted to return the favor, he wanted Li Changshou to take the initiative to invite him.
He did have the right to be arrogant. After all, not every expert below the Saint could force Saint Zhun Ti into such a sorry state.
On the way back, Li Changshou kept his eyes closed and pondered.
If he had already been "used" by the Heavenly Dao and participated in the matter of the Mystic Bird Shang Dynasty, a series of signs would appear in the Celestial Court and the South Continent …
If the Shang Nation was successfully established, it would not be far from the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.
At the same time, Li Changshou had long noticed that the time scale of the South Continent was completely different from the time scale that he knew.
If he counted from the moment Emperor Da Yu returned to the Fire Cloud Cave, it would be the end of summer chaos. The entire chaotic world had lasted for at least tens of thousands of years …
This also led to a very interesting question:
What is the connection between the Primordial World and the future?
Li Changshou was not interested in exploring that at all. After all, he had yet to solve the most crucial requirement — the ability to protect himself.
At the same time, if he could help the South Continent return from chaos, how much merit would he be able to obtain?
If the Netherworld went to heaven, the merit of the reform of the Netherworld, and the merit of ending the chaos in the South Continent were not enough for him to cultivate the Golden Body of Merit …
Li Changshou had a premonition that he would be stuck at an awkward point.
However, it did not matter. He would do these important things first and see how much he lacked. If he lacked too much, he would slowly wait for the merit from incense offerings and the salary of the Celestial Court.
If he did not lack much, he would kill some negative karma demons to fill the gap.
Eliminate demons and protect the Dao, for the sake of man and the heavens!
"Ah!"
Zhao Gongming suddenly sighed and said loudly, "I've decided!"
Li Changshou and Qiong Xiao were shocked by him.
He patted his chest and shouted, "I'll go look for Jinguang now.
Since Junior Sister Jinguang has fallen in love with me and I can't bear to reject her, I'll treat her as a Dao companion first!
If she doesn't change her mind after a hundred or a thousand years, I'll have feelings for her too. We can be husband and wife! "
"Wow." Qiong Xiao immediately jumped over and shook Zhao Gongming's arm. "Brother, why did you suddenly become enlightened!?!"
Li Changshou also smiled warmly.
Zhao Gongming smiled awkwardly and raised his chin at Li Changshou.
He sighed and said, "When I was at Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan's place just now, I saw Changshou putting in so much effort to speak up for Senior Brother Xuandu.
This matter can't be delayed any longer. Everyone's Dao hearts are unstable, and the sect can't be peaceful.
Brother, are you alright? "
"Brother's matter is naturally important."
"Let's go!" Zhao Gongming waved his hand. "Let's go to Golden Ao Island now!"
"Brother, don't be anxious." Qiong Xiao immediately said, "This matter is not something you can decide with just one sentence. You go with this guy slowly. I'll go first and help you find out what Junior Sister Jinguang is thinking!"
"Sure …"
Zhao Gongming's aura immediately weakened. Qiong Xiao immediately took out the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors and flew to Golden Ao Island with the flood dragon.
Li Changshou wanted to say something but hesitated. Then, he shook his head and followed beside Zhao Gongming. He kept answering Grandpa Chao's questions that were less masculine.
"Changgeng, do you think I should change my armor?"
"Changgeng, should I shave my beard?"
"Changgeng, what do you think we should talk about when I'm alone with Sister Jinguang?"
Li Changshou silently took out a scroll and said with a smile, "I've prepared it for you long ago!"
Zhao Gongming was overjoyed. He opened the scroll and read it as if he had obtained a treasure. Soon, he was confident and felt that he could succeed.
The two of them waited for two hours before Qiong Xiao sent a voice transmission.
At that moment, Zhao Gongming brought Li Changshou to Golden Ao Island. The place where they agreed to meet was a beautiful treasure pool.
It happened to be the place where Ao Yi cultivated.
Li Changshou did not go near the place. After waiting for Zhao Gongming to go to the island, he turned around and was about to leave.
However, after flying for less than fifteen feet, before he could circulate his immortal power, a small vortex appeared in the cloud in front of him. A slightly plump hand stretched out and hooked its finger at Li Changshou …
Li Changshou smiled. Just as he moved closer, he was grabbed by the collar and dragged into a familiar cave.
"Duo …"
"Shh!"
A group of people in front of him immediately turned their heads and gestured for him to keep quiet. Duobao, who was at the side, chuckled and pulled Li Changshou's arm to another pit.
The familiar pit, the familiar audience, the different scenes, and the different protagonists.
Outside the cave, Zhao Gongming was squatting beside the pool. He raised his hand and touched his face. His beard slowly fell.
Not far away, the Goddess of Golden Light, who was dressed in a light red dress, was waiting quietly with her hands behind her back. Her face was red, and her heart was pounding.
The vicinity of the treasure pool was filled with holes created by Daoist Duobao's unique mystical abilities. Those holes were filled with enthusiastic immortals from the island Daoist rites of Jie School …
Jie School was very cohesive!
This kind of thing also played a big part in it.
Li Changshou was brought to the best viewing spot. He received the same treatment as Qiong Xiao, the Goddess of Golden Spirit, and the other disciples of the Saints.
However, after watching for a while, Li Changshou felt a little worried …
If Yun Xiao received the news and rushed over, wouldn't she think of the magnificent scene in the peach blossom forest …
Li Changshou's Dao heart trembled. He was about to spontaneously burn the paper effigy and escape in time. However, just as that thought surfaced in his mind, before the True Samadhi Flames could be ignited, he snorted softly and wandered around the cave …
Many immortals of Jie School subconsciously felt their legs go weak.
