Honghuang: Senior Brother of the Chan Sect, I am Guangchengzi
Chapter 302: The Ancestor of the Opening Reappears
Chapter 302: The Ancestor of the Opening Reappears
Guangchengzi was the first to enter the vast land of the gods. When he looked forward, he was immediately amazed.
I saw that in this world, everything was as green as smoke and full of brilliant green. I could hear the cries of geese in the sky and the cry of phoenixes in the distance. There were countless fragrant trees, flowers and plants, and gurgling streams. There was no bad place at all.
At this time, the sky is just beginning to brighten, and what comes into view is a vast expanse of steep peaks and mountains, jagged cliffs, the cliffs are covered with clumps of green velvet, layers of branches and vines, the deep valleys are shrouded in mist, and the green is eternal.
That would be fine, after all, Guangchengzi is either in Kunlun or has lived in the Netherworld for a long time. Both places are top-notch paradises in the immortal world. Even his cave abode, Jiuxian Mountain, is one of the thirty-six paradises, which is far better than this place.
But what surprised him the most was that this was just a remote place in the ancient Shinto world, like a corner where almost no one would come.
Even so, this place is so beautiful, magnificent, full of spiritual energy and the great way, which is far better than the immortal way.
The Immortal Path encountered four consecutive catastrophes. The west was completely destroyed and the north was half-destroyed. Only the east and the south were still intact, but they were not as sacred as before.
Although the temples of the great gods are still extraordinary and all kinds of powerful people are more numerous than at the beginning of the world, it cannot conceal the fact that the immortal way is somewhat declining.
A strong monk does not mean a strong world, but if the world wants to be strong, it cannot do without strong monks. However, if there are too many powerful monks, disputes are inevitable, which will eventually endanger the world.
This is a difficult problem to solve.
But in the ancient times of Shinto, these problems seemed to be solved well.
The other three invincible gods also entered the Shinto wilderness at this time. They also saw this scene and were surprised at the sacredness of the Shinto wilderness.
Goddess Wangshu frowned and watched for a while, trying to find some loopholes, but she could only admit: "For the world, the way of the gods is far better than the way of immortals, but there are too many of these gods."
Guangchengzi and others nodded slightly. The reason why Shinto Honghuang is so sacred in every corner is because there are gods here too.
Just like the stream below, it looks ordinary, but actually there are more than five river gods in it.
There are gods who control the rising of rivers, gods who control the falling of rivers, gods who control the flow of rivers, gods who control the distribution of spiritual energy in rivers, and so on.
If this small stream were in the wild world of immortals, I'm afraid no one would take care of it, let alone let people be too lazy to take care of it.
But in the Shinto wilderness, this small stream is like a hot commodity. Even though it is so small, many people will go to take a bite of it. It is simply amazing.
Guang Chengzi looked at it for a while and shook his head, saying: "If there weren't so many gods here, no matter how powerful the Shinto primordial world is, it would be impossible for it to control these small places.
Moreover, in the beginning of the Shinto era, there was probably only one god who was in charge of a large area. Regardless of river gods, mountain gods, or water gods, there was only one god in this area.
It’s just that there are too many Shinto monks now, so we have to carefully distinguish which type of gods they are and which areas they should be in charge of. We even have to divide each type of god into multiple types, because the Shinto wilderness is not big enough.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Goddess Wangshu, Patriarch Minghe and Zhen Yuanzi all shook their heads in silence, obviously astonished.
Even in today's Immortal Path, where most of the land has been destroyed, there are still great gods who feel it is out of reach. However, the Divine Path is far larger than the Immortal Path, yet it is already overcrowded, which shows that the troubles between the two are not the same.
Taking advantage of the fact that they are now in a remote place in the ancient Shinto world, these four invincible gods quietly approached these gods, wanting to investigate the specific reality of Shinto's law enforcement.
However, they did not use cruel and vicious methods such as soul-searching at the beginning, but instead used the supreme way of nothingness, and transformed themselves into things without a trace like a spring dream, and drilled into the bodies of these gods.
These invincible gods are second only to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in the ancient Shinto world. Now, searching for a few gods who are equivalent to celestial beings will naturally be a piece of cake.
After a moment, the four of them separated from the bodies of these gods again.
These gods continued to manage the river, completely unaware that they had just been read from inside to out.
Guang Chengzi returned to the void and said to the people nearby in surprise: "This divine method is indeed extraordinary. I was wondering why there is so much spiritual energy here. It turns out that the gods do not need spiritual energy to practice, but provide it to the immortals."
Zhen Yuanzi pondered and said, “I feel very familiar with these immortal ways, and I can see from the memories of these gods that there were no immortal ways in the ancient times, let alone immortal practitioners.
It’s just that, from some unknown date, the immortal ways suddenly spread among the Shinto primordial world, and every god can use these immortal ways to enlighten mortals, allowing them to become immortals and become their own guardian immortals.”
Goddess Wangshu nodded and said, "These immortal ways have flaws. Many loopholes have been deliberately left there. They are also very afraid of the spirits of gods. It can be said that if they meet a god, they will die. However, they are only afraid of their own gods, not other gods."
The old man of the Styx said murderously: "There is also a Netherworld in this world, and the Earth Mother is in the Netherworld. Instead of slowly tossing and turning, why don't we join forces to fight our way into the Netherworld and kill the Earth Mother first!"
After these words were spoken, the other three people frowned slightly, obviously interested.
But in the end, Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of earth immortals who had a great dispute with the Earth Mother, shook his head and said, "This is not appropriate. We have just entered the divine way and rushed into the netherworld. This is really alarming the enemy.
Moreover, I haven’t heard any news about other great gods who have entered the Shinto Primordial Realm. Apparently, they are also lying in wait. I’m afraid that even the great gods of the Shinto Primordial Realm are lying in wait, waiting to join forces to kill anyone who rushes over.
If we just rush over like this, we will just fall into their trap. If one of the Three Sovereigns or Five Emperors returns, we will be in real trouble."
After hearing this, the old man Minghe also felt that this was right, but it was not his character to sit there blankly, so he couldn't help but said angrily: "Then what do you think we should do?"
Guang Chengzi replied, "Lie dormant and wait for the opportunity."
Goddess Wangshu lowered her eyes slightly, and nodded after hearing this: "That's right, we must lie dormant and wait for an opportunity to shock the world. Those saints must be trying to intervene, so we just need to wait for the saints to take action."
Zhen Yuanzi nodded in agreement, and the Minghe Patriarch had no choice but to do so.
These four people were all extremely patient innate gods. Once they had made their decision, they quickly began to look for a place to hide.
The structure of the Shinto primordial world is somewhat similar to that of the Xiandao primordial world, and it also surrounds the four seas outside the continent.
However, unlike the Xiandao primordial continent which is divided into east, west, south and north, the Shinto primordial continent has only one continent, called the Central Continent.
The ocean outside the central continent is called the Boundless Sea. It is vast and boundless. There are countless water gods and sea gods practicing in it. It is just like the immortal world. Although the ocean is larger, it is also poorer than the continent.
However, these great masters all put forward their own opinions on where to hide.
The Styx Patriarch naturally proposed to hibernate in the ocean, the Goddess Wangshu proposed to go to the starry sky, and Zhen Yuanzi wanted to go to the central continent. The final key choice was decided by Guang Chengzi, and the minority obeyed the majority.
Guangchengzi naturally considered it carefully. Without a doubt, the first thing he rejected was going to the Central Continent. As for the starry sky, he gave it up after careful consideration. In the end, he agreed with the idea of the Styx Patriarch to stay dormant in the ocean.
The Central Continent is the place where the five most powerful beings - Earth Emperor Yue Jian, Human Emperor Jiu Tou, White Emperor Jin Huang, Green Emperor Mu Huang, and Yellow Emperor Tu Huang - attained enlightenment.
The dojo of these five people is also among them, which is naturally the most dangerous place.
As for the starry sky, there are Tianhuang Cangli and Chidi Huohuang, who are equally extremely dangerous. What's more, Tianhuang Cangli is the first person to attain enlightenment in the ancient times of Shinto, and his status is the same as that of Hongjun Daozu.
Guangchengzi would rather hide in the Central Continent than in the starry sky.
Only the Black Emperor and the Water Emperor remain in the Boundless Sea. Due to the special nature of Shinto monks, few great gods would choose to relocate their religion like Master Tongtian. After all, Shinto monks can leave by themselves, but they cannot take their divine domain with them.
If there is no main god in the divine realm, it will definitely lead to others coveting it.
In other words, the Boundless Ocean is the best hiding place. After all, no matter how powerful the Black Emperor Water Emperor is, it is impossible for him to occupy the entire Boundless Ocean.
Some invincible gods did not want their domains to be invaded by the Supreme God, so they joined hands in a vague way to resist the majesty of the Black Emperor's Palace.
I'm afraid that most of the great immortals in the ancient times would choose to hide there.
Since this time they are heading to the boundless ocean, the ancestor of the Styx will lead the way. He will use his own power of water to swallow up the surroundings. In this way, he will not be afraid of losing himself.
The Shinto and Immortal ways are indeed two sides of the same coin. The old man of the Styx led the way in front and didn't feel any discomfort at all.
He even sensed that the endless water spiritual energy around him was calling him, hoping that he would take charge of it, which made him even happier.
"I thought that with the Ancestral Dragon around, I would have no chance to become the Lord of the Primordial Water Element before the Dragon Clan died."
The Styx Patriarch thought to himself: "However, if I can collect enough water elemental energy in the Divine Path, after returning to the Immortal Path, I might be able to establish my own position by force!"
Thinking of this, the ancestor of the Styx felt a little impatient, and immediately began to continuously absorb the energy of the surrounding water veins in order to enrich his own water authority.
As the Styx Patriarch continued to devour, a faint divine light began to emerge from his body, which immediately scared the other three.
Fortunately, after watching for a while, Guang Chengzi suddenly realized: "The ancestor is absorbing the water veins in the wildness of the gods. This is also a way. If we can also absorb the qi in the wildness of the gods, we can use it to cultivate the incarnation of the gods.
Then our true self can stay hidden and can travel freely with only the incarnation. It will also be safer. With us as witnesses behind the scenes, the incarnation can also grow rapidly. "
This is indeed a good idea, but Goddess Wangshu has a different opinion.
“That’s true, but there are a lot of loopholes in it.”
Goddess Wangshu frowned and said, "The cultivation of the Shinto monks is different from that of the immortals. They need to control all kinds of authority between heaven and earth to comprehend the Great Dao. The more authority they have, the stronger the Great Dao and the higher their strength.
In this way, they are doomed to be unable to practice quickly, and they must control a larger divine domain. However, the divine way is so crowded now, where can we find such a large divine domain for us to control?"
"Yes, the reason why the Shinto primordial world invaded the Immortal primordial world is because the Shinto primordial world is too crowded now."
Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said, "If one or two unknown gods suddenly show up, it will only alert the enemy and make it clear that we are the invaders."
Guangchengzi admitted that he had this weakness, but he also had a better idea in mind.
"Since we can't develop slowly, we might as well attack with force!" The Styx Patriarch suddenly said: "I have separated a Shinto incarnation and have seen the law of development in the Shinto prehistoric world.
In order for gods to increase their strength, in addition to controlling all powers between heaven and earth, there is also the concept of inheritance. That is, if a great god dies, perhaps a great god equivalent to his offspring will grow on his divine shell.
Nowadays, there are several great gods in the starry sky who came from this way, like the great god Huangtian. His status in the starry sky is no less than that of the Mother of Heaven, and his predecessor is the great god Cangtian.
The great god Cangtian made a mistake in his cultivation and accidentally went astray, and died. Eventually, on his dead body, the great god Huangtian was born and inherited all the power of the great god Cangtian.
When God Huangtian was born, he had all the power of God Cangtian, but he was also weak and needed to slowly search for his lost authority. There is precedent for this.
We just need to find other great gods who are confirmed dead and have no descendants, and act as their descendants. This way, we can conceal our rapidly growing cultivation and find an origin without any flaws for ourselves."
After hearing this, the other three immediately began to think about whether it was right or not, and were surprised to find that it was feasible.
Moreover, the sooner this method is used, the better. If other great gods find out about it, I'm afraid they will all follow suit.
It would be fine if one or two lost descendants of the great gods returned, but if more than ten or twenty lost descendants of the great gods returned at the same time, even the dumbest person would find that there was something wrong.
After arriving at a vast ocean, the four of them immediately joined forces and hid in the deepest part of the void, transforming into an extremely tiny space dust. As the other infinite space dusts kept rolling, they were difficult to detect.
Afterwards, they began to practice Shintoism, drawing on all kinds of authority between heaven and earth, trying to create a Shinto incarnation that was completely consistent with the Shinto primordial world.
Guangchengzi was the first to succeed. After all, he had the experience of separating out the two incarnations of karma, Tianhuo Taoist and Gaoshan Dashi. The incarnation of Shinto was similar for him.
The Goddess Wangshu and the Patriarch of the Styx are equally powerful. The former is the lord of Taiyin and the latter is the lord of the Sea of Blood. They also have experience in incarnation of karma.
On the contrary, Zhen Yuanzi was a little slower, but he finally separated one.
The incarnation of Guangchengzi was named the Ancestor of Creation. The predecessor he was looking for was an extremely ancient god named the Ancestor of Creation. It was said that he was an ancient and sacred being who first opened up the starry sky.
However, this ancestor of the Creation of the World had already died, even earlier than the time when the Emperor attained enlightenment. He also practiced the Yin-Yang Dao, which coincided with Guangchengzi's, so he was naturally targeted by him.
As for the Shinto incarnations of the other three people, they have no names yet. After all, they know only a limited number of lost gods, and there is no one suitable for them among the known gods, so they decided to help Guangchengzi first.
After Guangchengzi has gained a firm foothold, he will use Guangchengzi to find a legitimate origin for his incarnation.
