The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were both legends of the human dao and myths of heaven and earth.
Everyone in the universe knew about the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
The Three Sovereigns referred to Fuxi, Nuwa, and Shennong.
The Five Emperors were Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, Azure Emperor Taihao, Crimson Emperor Kui Lie, White Emperor Shaohao, and Black Emperor Zhuanxu.
There were no records of the legends of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in historical documents. They had been passed down from generation to generation. Because of this, some people thought that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were not real legends. They might just be myths.
Whether the legends of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were true or not had always been debated. Even Gu Qingfeng was not sure. Over the years, he had heard many legends of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and there were all kinds of stories.
For example, some said that the so-called Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors did exist, but they weren't the ancestors of the human dao. Their true identities were very complicated. For example, Fuxi was said to be the ancestor of the heavenly dao. Otherwise, Fuxi wouldn't have been called the Heavenly Emperor.
As for Nuwa, she was the ancestor of the human dao and the well-known Mother Earth. She was known as the Earthly Sovereign.
Others said that Azure Emperor Taihao was the ancestor of the immortal dao, while Black Emperor Shaohao was the ancestor of the monster dao.
In some myths, it was said that Goddess Nuwa joined forces with the immortals, buddhas, demons, and devils to create the human dao. The purpose of creating the human dao was for the vitality of heaven and earth, as well as to nurture the foundation of the three thousand great daos.
This was the most widespread legend of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in the universe.
Of course.
Many people believed that this legend was deliberately made up by the three thousand great daos to fool everyone. It was to hide the truth of them slaughtering the human dao and extracting its three souls.
There were even some conspiracy theorists who said that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were indeed related to the three thousand great daos. However, in the legends, a long, long time ago, the three thousand great daos often fought each other openly and covertly. Everyone wanted to dominate the world, and no one was willing to submit to another.
Goddess Nuwa hated these battles, so she joined forces with Fuxi, Shennong, and the other great dao ancestors to create the human dao. Her goal wasn't to nurture the foundation of the three thousand great daos, but to balance the battles of the three thousand great daos. at the same time, she wanted to create the human dao into an existence that gathered the merits of the three thousand great daos.
Apart from that, Gu Qingfeng had also heard of an even more sinister and conspiratorial theory.
It was said that Fuxi, Shennong, Taihao, Shaohao, and the other Grand Dao Patriarchs had betrayed their own Grand Daos and joined forces with Maiden Nuwa to gather the three thousand Grand Daos to create a perfect Human Dao. Their goal was to rule over the Grand Daos and dominate the world.
To tell the truth.
Gu Qingfeng had heard too much about the legends of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. Although some of the stories sounded ridiculous at first, they seemed to be true after careful consideration.
"Daxing, the legends say that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are not the true ancestors of the human dao. Instead, they are related to the world and the three thousand great daos. You should have heard of this before."
"Didn't I tell you just now? You'd better treat it as a story about the fight for the Great Dao. Don't take it seriously."
The monk tilted his head back and took a swig of wine. "The great dao and the nine heavens are very complicated. Apart from the ancestors of the great dao, no one else can say for sure. Not even the nameless ones can."
He sighed as if he was lamenting about something. "If the world is a game of chess, then the ancestors of the great dao are chess pieces. They are the last few pieces on the chessboard and affect the overall situation."
The monk was known as the living Buddha of all worlds. His previous life belonged to the Primordial Era. In this life, he had lived from the Primordial Era to the present. He knew what others knew, he knew what others didn't know, he had seen what others had seen, and he had seen what others hadn't seen. He had experienced countless things, and he increasingly felt that the world was a game of chess from the beginning.
He might not know who was playing the game, but he could guess the rules of the game. It was karma.
After all, everything in the world revolved according to the law of karma.
Just as he said, if those ancestors of the Great Path were considered chess pieces, they would be the first few pieces to be placed on the chessboard of heaven and earth. Before placing the pieces, they must have been deduced before placing them. Once the ancestors of the Great Path placed their pieces, it was like the framework of the chessboard was formed.
The framework of the world was none other than the three thousand great daos.
The so-called great dao and destiny were also chess pieces of the great dao. Some were of the heavenly dao, some were of the earth dao, some were of the immortals and buddhas, and some were of the demons and demons. Even if they had the same goal, they were all calculating their own things.
Thinking of this, Mad Monk Daxing suddenly laughed.
It seemed to be a bitter laugh, but also a mocking one. Gu Qingfeng looked at him and found it strange. "Why are you laughing like an idiot?"
"I suddenly thought of something and thought it was funny."
"What is it? Tell me so I can be happy too."
"Don't say it. You'll be happy if I tell you."
The monk imitated Gu Qingfeng and sat on the ground casually. Then he used his finger to draw a chessboard and a few circles. "These circles are like the ancestors of the great dao."
Gu Qingfeng did not understand what he was talking about and asked, "And then?"
"Let's not care about what these ancestors of the great dao want to do or what they are scheming. No matter what they want to do, they will collapse in the first round."
"Collapse? What do you mean? "
The monk drew some messy chess pieces on the chessboard. These chess pieces were everywhere, almost covering the entire chessboard. As he drew, he said, "Little Guy Gu, you should have heard that there were many original sinners in the Primordial Age, right?"
"Yes."
"You should also know that the Daoless Age was opened in the Primordial Age, right? It was because of the opening of the Daoless Age that the Primordial Age ended. "
Before Gu Qingfeng could speak, the monk said, "Don't ask me why the Primordial Age ended after the opening of the Daoless Age. I also want to know the answer to this question."
"When you said collapse, you meant the Primordial Age?"
"Yes. After the end of the Primordial Age, although many original sinners died, the ancestors of the great dao did not have it easy either. Most of them died. Fortunately, the framework of the Three Thousand Great Dao still existed and became stronger. Unfortunately, the original sinners were not completely destroyed. While the Three Thousand Great Dao was developing, the original sinners were not idle."
The monk wiped away all the chess pieces he drew on the chessboard and drew some white chess pieces. "These chess pieces represent the great dao and the will of heaven."
He drew a few black chess pieces and said, "These black chess pieces represent the original sinners."
"Since the Primordial Age, every original sin that appeared was destroyed by the Three Thousand Great Dao!"
"It was like this in the Primordial Age, the Primordial Age, and the Antiquity Age. As long as the original sinners dared to appear, they were either killed or banished to the Ultimate Ruins."
"Until the Modern Age!"
After the monk wiped away all the black chess pieces that represented the original sinners, he drew a new one and said, "This chess piece represents you."
"Since the Primordial Age, the Three Thousand Great Dao destroyed the original sinners. In the Modern Age, when it was your turn, the original sinners destroyed the Great Dao."
