The fairy father

Half a month later.

Li Pingan left the Dragon Palace and stretched back to the direction of the Notre Dame Palace.

His Majesty the Emperor knows how to be lazy.

It only took seven days for the Holy Mother to transform the Juetian Formation. The busiest moments for the immortals and gods in the heaven were on the eighth, ninth, and tenth days. Li Ping'an avoided them all with a trip to the Dragon Palace.

With Li Dazhi and Dong Wang presiding over it, all plans were advanced in an orderly manner.

Because the preliminary work of Heavenly Court was relatively well done, the Qi Refiners were very calm about the matter of ordering Nanzhou.

There are even many sects that spontaneously organize tours around Nanzhou.

Heavenly soldiers and generals patrol the inner circle, and they patrol the outer circle, which directly boosts their enthusiasm.

As for the Nanzhou Divine Court, they have long since lost the capital to compete with the Heavenly Court. This time, they were also directly subdued by the Heavenly Court. Under the auspices of Dong Wang, more than a dozen gods with outstanding virtues and complete personalities were absorbed into the Heavenly Court as intermediate-level gods. Most of the minor gods and other gods went to the world of gods and humans to retire, and were granted some minor priesthoods in name only.

In this way, in the composition of the gods in heaven, in addition to the human sect headed by Dong Wang, the innate spiritual sect (dragon and phoenix tribes) headed by the Queen Mother, there is also a brand new spiritual sect.

After the Great Catastrophe of Conferring Gods, the composition of the gods in heaven may become more complex.

This is a good thing for Li Ping'an, the Emperor of Heaven, as the various factions can check and balance each other.

After he arrived over Nanzhou, he did some acceptance work.

The eyes of Li Dazhi and Dong Wang were full of resentment.

Li Ping'an laughed and looked around. After confirming that everything was as he had discussed with the Holy Mother, he ordered to reward the officials in heaven who worked hard.

Heaven has a complete reward mechanism, and the gods and gods who really work will not let their work go to waste.

At this moment, the Juetian Formation has changed from the original 'secret room' to a 'big shed'. The dome and the two main directions of the north and south are still wrapped by the formation walls, and dozens of entrances and exits are opened on the east and west sides.

Forty percent of the heavenly soldiers originally stationed here have been transferred. The eight to nine million heavenly soldiers are divided into thirty-six military camps and scattered along the line around Nanzhou. They are constantly patrolling inside and outside to guard against demons causing trouble.

Qigong practitioners have started to actively sign up.

Both the sect and the casual cultivators want to go to Nanzhou to choose apprentices. This is a major event for the sect's thousand-year development. The casual cultivators also want to find a good apprentice who can help them in the future.

The huge population of Nanzhou has become the most valued resource in the cultivation world of Dongzhou.

As for spiritual veins and the like, the current model is unified management by Heaven, and the Qi Refiners have no way of thinking about it.

After finishing the business, Li Dazhi climbed onto the Black Panther and rushed to the East China Sea with Qin Wan, the Ten Heavenly Lord of Jin'ao Island who came to have a drink with him.

Li Ping'an stared at the back of his old father, a little hesitant to speak.

King Dong saluted beside him and said, "Your Majesty, if you have no instructions, I will return to Tongming Hall to handle government affairs."

"Don't overwork yourself, King Dong," Li Ping'an said warmly, "Just let young people do some small things, and you should also practice and train them."

Dong Wang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I just sit in the Tongming Hall so that they can work with peace of mind. In fact, there are often no specific government affairs that need to be handled by me."

"That's good."

Li Ping'an changed his voice:

"King Dong, do you know the history of ancient heaven?"

Why does Your Majesty ask this suddenly?

Dongwang blinked, lowered his head and held his hands: "Your Majesty, I can only say that I have a brief knowledge. In ancient times, the Heavenly Court once had the post of imperial clerk, which was dedicated to recording the daily life of the Emperor and Queen. Later, we copied the treasure house of the Ancient Heavenly Court. Many ministers have read it.”

"The King of the East is really rich in learning and wealth."

Li Ping'an smiled and praised, then asked:

"Does Donghuang Taiyi, the Second Heavenly Emperor, have any interesting anecdotes?"

King Dong calculated with his fingers, constantly searching in his huge memory bank, and asked slowly: "Everything that I know should be known by Heaven. Your Majesty, haven't you inquired about Heaven's Law?"

"I've checked it," Li Ping'an said, "Not only the way of heaven, I also copied the memory of Emperor Jun's remnant soul and checked it before."

Dongwang smiled and said, "Why are you suddenly interested in Donghuang Taiyi?"

"The main reason is the Chaos Bell," Li Ping'an said. "I want to know why the Chaos Bell chose Donghuang Taiyi to serve. Now the Chaos Bell has gone to follow my teacher, the Transcendent. I'm wondering if I can get rid of this treasure. Got it."

King Dong's eyes lit up: "If you, Your Majesty, can control the Chaos Bell, what does the Sixth Saint have to fear?"

"This, just try it."

Li Pingan said again:

"One more thing, I discovered a banned peak master of Taiyi Golden Immortal, the ancient ferocious beast Nine-tailed Fox, in the Tianhu Clan's territory.

"She seems to have some entanglements with Donghuang Taiyi.

"The only thing that is certain now, and it is not completely certain, but it seems to be credible, is that Donghuang Taiyi once tried to cultivate this nine-tailed fox to seduce one or several masters, but in the end the nine-tailed fox and Donghuang Taiyi broke up, and the nine-tailed fox was banned by Donghuang Taiyi for 178,000 years. "

Dong Wang pinched his fingers to calculate, and a Bagua disk appeared behind him.

He said: "Tiandao has not recorded this matter."

"Well," Li Ping'an said, "I'm also surprised by this. Tiandao only printed the story of the nine-tailed fox being banned. The nine-tailed fox also claimed to be the disciple of Donghuang Taiyi."

King Dong said: "Your Majesty, do you suspect that the nine-tailed fox is hiding something?"

"I don't know, I'm just curious whether Donghuang Taiyi will leave some key things to the nine-tailed fox."

Li Pingan said slowly:

"In ancient times, the Heavenly Court was dominated by Emperor Jun. His two queens, Xihe, the goddess of the sun, and Wangshu, the goddess of the moon, were also very famous. There are countless ancient rumors and anecdotes.

"But Donghuang Taiyi not only rarely appears in heaven on weekdays, but there are also no rumors outside. It seems that he rarely appears in heaven and earth.

"I have been chatting with the Dragon King about ancient times for a long time. From the Dragon Clan's perspective, I can count the number of times Donghuang Taiyi appeared publicly during the war with two slaps.

"This is too mysterious."

Dongwang smiled and said: "There is a saying here that when Donghuang Taiyi was in charge of the Chaos Clock, he used the Chaos Clock to travel through the ages."

"This statement is somewhat untenable," Li Ping'an said, "If Donghuang Taiyi could travel through the ages, how could he not see the fall of Emperor Jun and the rise of the human race?"

"Actually, we have discussed what you mentioned a long time ago."

Dong Wang said slowly:

“To be honest, the fall of Donghuang Taiyi has some mysteries in itself.

"At that time, there were eight ancestral witches fighting against Donghuang Taiyi. All eight ancestral witches were held back by Donghuang Taiyi. In the end, if the Chaos Bell had not been beaten away by the Taiqing leader who secretly took action, Donghuang Taiyi would have been difficult to defeat.

"Even if the Chaos Bell was blown away, Donghuang Taiyi fought to death most of the masters who besieged him, including several great ancestral witches, and the few ancestral witches who survived were also severely wounded by Donghuang Taiyi.

"In the battle of the fall of the ancient heaven, only Xuanming and Houtu were left among the ten great ancestral witches (Gonggong Zhurong was dead), mainly because Donghuang Taiyi was too fierce.

"We, the ancestors of the human race, besieged and fought to death Emperor Jun and Xihe, as well as many important officials of the ancient heaven."

Li Ping'an spread his hands: "Since Donghuang Taiyi was so fierce, why didn't he escape at that time?"

"This," King Dong muttered, "it's really difficult to explain clearly."

"How come the more we dig into this matter, the more problems we get."

Li Ping'an wanted to scratch his head.

But in full view of the crowd, the Emperor of Heaven could not do such a frivolous gesture, so he lowered his head and sighed.

"Let me ask the person involved. Houtu should be the one who witnessed it at that time."

"Yes," King Dong said seriously, "If your Majesty discovers anything interesting, please share it with me."

Li Ping'an showed a gentle smile: "Dong Wang just said that you are actually quite leisurely on weekdays?"

"Did you say anything?"

Dong Wang Feng Qingyang subconsciously took half a step back, but Li Pingan raised his hand to hold his shoulder.

"Prince Dong, help me weigh that nine-tailed fox.

"I checked the memory of Emperor Jun's remnant soul, checked the information about Donghuang Taiyi in Tiandao, and asked the Dragon King. This nine-tailed fox turned out to be the only person we know who may have a close relationship with Donghuang Taiyi.

"The Chaos Clock is of great importance. As long as there is a little clue, we must treat it with caution."

"Yes," Dong Wang responded with a serious face.

"Also, investigate this matter about her and try not to let her know about it."

Li Pingan said:

"She might be able to play some role in the catastrophe in the future. Try not to hurt her."

"I understand."

King Dong bowed his hands and accepted the decree, and then began to think about how to make some targeted arrangements.

Li Ping'an felt confident that he would leave the matter of testing the nine-tailed fox to King Dong.

With the nine-tailed fox's narrow-mindedness, 90% of the time he couldn't beat Dong Wang.

Li Pingan was naturally not idle either;

At this moment, he seemed to have grasped a clue, but also seemed to have no grasp at all. Li Pingan rushed directly to the underworld to find the parties involved in the war that overthrew the ancient heaven.

Manager of reincarnation, Houtu.

…

"Donghuang Taiyi?"

Within the secret realm of the reincarnation disk.

Hou Tu murmured softly, with a look of memories in his eyes, and his expression was a little strange.

Li Ping'an hurriedly said: "Is there anything that can't be said? If it's not convenient to answer, you can just refuse. I'm just curious."

"Why is Your Majesty suddenly interested in Donghuang Taiyi?"

Hou Tu sighed softly and said slowly:

"There must indeed be some problems with this Donghuang Taiyi.

"At first I just thought he was too fierce, but now that I think about it carefully, I realize that his strength was too strong. At that time, we used two great witches and the ten ancestral witches to perform the Twelve Heavenly Gods Formation.

"When Donghuang Taiyi took action, the situation in Heaven was actually over. A large number of Heavenly masters had fled towards the sky. The only ones fighting to the death were the Golden Crow tribe and dozens of tribes affiliated with the Golden Crow tribe. They committed many evil deeds and oppressed living beings. Even if they surrendered, they would be killed. They could only Fight to the death.

“Originally, we thought there was no suspense in this decisive battle.

"The human race claims to be one hundred thousand demon soldiers, but in fact there are one hundred thousand masters, and almost 80% of the human race's background is ready to be possessed by demons. In the end, only about 20% of them succeeded in being demonized, but this is enough to break through the defense of the Heavenly Palace.

“The mission of the Wu Clan is to break through the Zhoutian Star Formation and surround and kill the masters of the Heavenly Court, and we successfully accomplished it.

"The human race mainly attacked the main palace of the Heavenly Palace and killed the masters such as Di Jun and Xihe.

“Originally, we thought that the most brutal battlefield would be on the human side, but unexpectedly, Donghuang Taiyi suddenly appeared, seemingly rushing back from the Sea of ​​Chaos, and started fighting with us.

"The Twelve Capital Heavenly Divine Evil Formation was so depleted by the two great witches that it was almost destroyed without any attack. However, we surrounded Donghuang Taiyi together, but were suppressed by Donghuang Taiyi alone.

"We, the Wu clan, are arrogant by nature. In fact, we have always regarded ourselves as the main force in this battle. How could we be upstaged by the human race?

"But when Donghuang Taiyi took action, almost all ten ancestral witches, sixty great witches, and thousands of war witches were trapped by the Donghuang Bell."

Li Ping'an leaned back slightly.

Hou Tu closed his eyes and sighed softly: "At that time, Emperor Jun was in an emergency. Xuan Ming and I were sent by my brother to support the human masters. I kept a trace of my consciousness watching the whole process. Donghuang Taiyi did stop the Wu clan's battle by himself. force."

"Isn't this much more powerful than Di Jun?"

Li Pingan murmured:

"Then why, in the memory of Di Jun's remnant soul, did I see Di Jun's evaluation of Donghuang Taiyi, saying that Donghuang Taiyi's strength was only slightly inferior to his, and that Donghuang Zhong was too tyrannical?"

"Perhaps I had a strange encounter in the Sea of ​​Chaos."

Hou Tu said:

“The final battle turned into a tragic battle because Donghuang Taiyi was too strong.

"Most of my brothers were shocked to death by the Donghuang Bell, and the Time Avenue became extremely terrifying under the control of the Donghuang Bell.

"I will never forget that I was only one step away from a group of tribesmen, but I stretched out my hand to pull them, but what I held was dust in the shape of their bodies."

Li Ping'an asked: "Then how was Donghuang Taiyi killed?"

"The Donghuang Bell was swept away by Tai Chi Tu."

Hou Tu sighed:

"Now that I think about it, the Battle of Tiangong is destined to reduce the main combat strength of our Wu clan, so as to adapt to the great prosperity of the human race.

“Just when Donghuang Taiyi was about to attack the human army, Taijitu appeared.

"The Archmage also took action... That battle should have been under Taiqing's watchful eye."

Li Pingan nodded slowly.

Taiqing broke the situation again.

The strange thing about this incident is that Donghuang Taiyi suddenly became extremely tyrannical and grabbed the Donghuang Bell and smashed the ancestral wizards to death.

Hou Tu asked: "What is your Majesty investigating?"

"Chaos Bell, also known as Donghuang Bell."

Li Pingan said:

“I didn’t think much about it before, but I always thought it was quite ‘right’ for Hongjun to obtain such an important treasure as the Chaos Bell.

"But now, it suddenly occurred to me that the master behind the Chaos Clock may not have been Donghuang Taiyi."

"Oh?" Hou Tu asked, "Why did your Majesty say this?"

Li Ping'an asked: "What were Zhunti and Jieyin doing during the ancient war that overthrew Heaven? Do fellow Taoists still remember them?"

"They are watching from Lingshan Mountain and have not participated in the battle. Most of the innate powerful people are just waiting and watching. Many powerful people will help whichever side wins."

Li Ping'an asked again: "Then, what was my transcendent teacher doing at that time?"

Hou Tu said: "At that time, no one knew that besides Ran Deng Lao Dao, there was also that terrifying transcendent person in Lingjiu Mountain."

"That's the problem."

Li Pingan said:

“With my teacher’s temperament that likes to arrange everything, there’s no reason why he didn’t have a plan at the time.

"My teacher wanted to kill all possibilities in the world. Donghuang Taiyi suddenly turned back, then avoided the human race, and attacked the ancestral witches. He even killed the eight great ancestral witches and directly disabled the witch clan.

"This is very much like the work of my teacher, and he was motivated enough to do it.

“If the witch clan is allowed to cultivate two more great witches who are comparable to the ancestral witches, and the Twelve Capital Gods and Evil Formation restore Pangu’s true form, it will actually be a huge threat to him.

"Fellow Taoist, can you tell me in detail what you saw when Donghuang Taiyi died?"

"It's better to show it to you directly."

Houtu closed his eyes, and a faint flash of light appeared on his forehead.

Li Ping'an understood, and pointed a finger at Hou Tu's forehead, and a memory image clearly appeared in Li Ping'an's heart.

That was Hou Tu's perspective, and he could see the great battle when the ancient heaven collapsed.
