My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World

Therefore, very few of them were actually refined; they were mostly bestowed as rewards from top to bottom and then circulated.

It can be seen as a spiritual stone in a novel from a previous life, but a spiritual stone is formed from the essence of heaven and earth.

Gold, on the other hand, is formed by the human race through the accumulation of their fortune, making it even more precious.

Gold possesses three fundamental qualities that make it a candidate for selection by the human race: first, introversion; second, immortality; and third, the ability to absorb.

In the Five Elements theory, metal generates water, and the fusion of water is actually inherited from the absorption of metal.

In the Five Elements theory, Earth generates Metal, and Metal's absorption is inherited from Earth's support.

Therefore, gold can absorb the fortune of the human race and retain it within its body so that it will not dissipate.

Its immortality allows it to be passed down forever and accumulate continuously.

Because of its inherent nature, the gold circulating in the market, which may appear to be gold, is actually just its natural color. A certain piece of gold may have been circulating for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years.

It has absorbed a large amount of human fortune.

These auras, unactivated, appear as pure as gold.

But once activated, it will display a different color.

The royal family and aristocratic families were insatiably greedy and lived in extreme luxury.

It wasn't actually about indulging in pleasure.

The fortune of the human race is actually very dispersed, and this dispersed fortune is constantly flowing away, becoming a part of the cycle of heaven and earth.

The human race naturally wants to minimize the number of humans that leave.

This led to the existence of royal families and aristocratic clans.

They established numerous businesses, amassed gold, and then circulated it through extravagant lifestyles. In effect, this circulation of gold helped to gather the scattered fortune of the people.

Then gather it up, absorb its energy, and then release it again.

It circulates continuously, bringing together the scattered fortune of the people.

The presence of gold represents a kind of equality.

Only when there is equality will conflict decrease.

In the absence of a general equivalent, bartering can easily lead to unequal transactions.

When transactions are unequal, conflicts are naturally more likely to arise between the parties involved.

The two parties in the transaction may appear to be only two people, but behind these two people could be two families, behind these two families could be two tribes, and behind these two tribes could be two countries.

Such a gradual accumulation of contradictions could lead to significant losses.

When people die and their possessions are lost, the fortune of the human race is naturally affected.

Humans have had many general equivalents, but in the end, gold remains the most reliable.

In addition, its ability to absorb good fortune allows its value to continuously increase, so gold must circulate and there is no need to worry about it being hoarded.

Therefore, with gold as the dominant commodity, there once emerged a lineage of merchants who gathered the fortunes of the world through trade.

Finally, a Human Emperor realm expert emerged, namely Emperor Pan Geng of the Shang Dynasty.

The reason why there are no merchants in the fourteen stores now is because merchants have already transcended this.

The eleventh reign of the ancient emperors was actually eleven clashes of various schools of thought.

A hundred schools of thought contended, and the final victor was that Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor reigned for ten thousand years during the eleventh reign, and did not die after abdicating.

Instead, he led his civil and military officials, soldiers, and sages to conquer the stars.

There are eleven celestial courts in the starry sky, which were established by eleven human emperors in the recent past.

The realm of Human Emperors is defined by a single family achieving the status of Human Emperor. Among the eleven Human Emperors in recent history, only Emperor Pan Geng of the Shang Dynasty and Emperor Qin Ying of the Qin Dynasty reached the Human Emperor realm.

The remaining nine all utilize the Hundred Schools of Thought. They gather fortune through the Hundred Schools of Thought, but do not rely on them. Although they have gathered enough fortune, it is mixed and can only become a pseudo-realm.

The fortunes of the merchants have now all gone to the Great Shang Heavenly Court established by Pan Geng in the starry sky, therefore there are no merchants among the fourteen families now.

Two of the fourteen schools of thought are in a rather awkward position: Taoism and Buddhism.

The Taoist and Buddhist schools produced a Taoist master and a Buddha, respectively. Logically, both were at the Human Emperor level and should have established their own Heavenly Court.

However, the Taoist Master and the Buddhist Master each established a new lineage and became the masters of that lineage, thus the fortune of the sect returned to these two lineages.

This forced Taoism and Buddhism to constantly compete with other schools of thought.

This constant arguing goes against the true meaning of the two families' cultivation, putting them in an awkward position.

Each time, these two teams are among the last few remaining teams, but they never manage to win.

He was known as the troublemaker among all schools of thought.

Zhao Xuan ordered all members of the Heavenly Stem Squad to go to the Korean Peninsula and hide, awaiting his instructions.

He then followed the golden-armored dragon riders to Zhongdu, Zhongmou City.

The four capitals of the State of Zhao were: Jinyang as the initial capital, Handan as the main capital, Zhongmu as the middle capital, and Xingtai as the secondary capital.

Wubian City, also known as Wuwei City, Pingyang City, Wudu City, Shichangcheng, Shuozhou City, and Beidi City.

Each region has a population of over ten million and an area spanning tens of thousands of miles.

It is said that after Qin Shi Huang, Qin Ying, attained the realm of the Human Emperor, he led his civil and military officials, soldiers, and sages to wage war in the stars and established the Great Qin Heavenly Court.

Then he remembered that before he attained enlightenment, the borders of various countries were adjacent, causing constant conflicts.

Thus, the energy of the earth was dispersed, and the entire land was replanned and reorganized.

In the middle are the Ten Thousand Mountains and the Four Swamps, with the Ten Thousand Mountains being mainly inhabited by demonic beasts.

The four lakes are Yunmengze, Leize, Dayeze, and Heze.

Yunmengze belongs to the spirit beast lineage, Leize belongs to the divine beast lineage, Dayeze belongs to the spirit race, and Heze belongs to the insect race.

Encircling the Ten Thousand Mountains and the Four Swamps, stretching for 300,000 li in depth, is the habitat for the human race.

Three hundred thousand miles away lies the land of the four extremes.

The easternmost point is the East Sea, the westernmost point is the Western Wilderness, the southernmost point is the Southern Barbarians, and the northernmost point is the Northern River.

The East Sea was assigned to the Taoist court and the aquatic tribes, the Western Wilderness to the Buddhist court, the Southern Barbarians to the forbidden lands, and the Northern River to the spirits.

This greatly reduced internal strife among humans, because when the forces merged to a certain extent, they basically followed the model of the Seven Kingdoms.

The remaining seven countries each have two neighboring countries; if you attack one, the other will definitely take advantage of the situation.

This is also why the Seven Kingdoms existed for ten thousand years.

But this time it's different.

Zhao Xuan already knew what had happened in Han Kingdom; it could only be said that a major event for the human race was about to unfold.

The Great Dao controls one, the Heavenly Dao controls three, five, seven, and nine, the Human Dao controls four, six, and eight, and the Earthly Dao controls two.

Therefore, the Way of Heaven governs the world, the Way of Humanity assists, and the Way of Earth maintains balance.

Three, five, seven, and nine are very special numbers in the Dao of Heaven.

Among humans, four, six, and eight are special numbers.

The general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and will be combined for a long time.

However, in the process of separation and reunion, too many heroes of the human race will meet an untimely end.

Therefore, the Qin Emperor reorganized the earth's veins, giving the earth its current layout.

The Heavenly Dao is responsible for the division of the human race, while the human race is responsible for unifying it.

After each human emperor leaves with his people, the remaining human civilization will re-emerge and evolve.

Since the departure of the eleventh human emperor, the human race has developed into nine factions through division and reunification.

It consists of the seven kingdoms, the East Sea Dao Court, and the Western Wilderness Buddhist Court.

The East Sea Daoist Temple and the West Wilderness Buddhist Temple were just there for the fun of it, counting the days.

If someone were to unify the seven kingdoms, the Taoist and Buddhist courts would be directly integrated into it, making it completely unified.

This is the throne of the human emperor.

If a reigning human emperor can reach any one of the Four Symbols, Six Harmonies, or Eight Trigrams realms, he can become a human emperor.

The so-called Four Phases refers to the suppression of all wills by using one's own power, leaving only one's own will.

The Six Harmonies unite all wills, with oneself taking the lead.

The Eight Trigrams, on the other hand, allow all industries to flourish and reach a state where everyone is like a dragon.

Emperor Pan Geng of the Shang Dynasty followed the Six Harmonies route, using the benefits of commerce to unite all wills before advancing to the Human Emperor realm.

Qin Emperor Qin Ying, on the other hand, followed the Four Phases route, using his own kingly way to suppress all discordant voices and finally advance to the Human Emperor realm.

Now that the human race has been unified again, the Han emperor's tyranny has caused the Han people to suffer greatly. Therefore, the imperial court has ordered the Han kingdom to be destroyed.

It was the Han Kingdom that opened a door, allowing the seven kingdoms to launch a war.

Even without the Han Kingdom, it would have been time for the seven kingdoms to be unified.

However, this means that the seven countries are now on the same starting line.

But this would be tantamount to eliminating Han Kingdom directly, excluding it from the competition for the Human Emperor.

Upon arriving in Zhongdu, Zhao Mingcheng, along with his son Zhao Ningde, received Zhao Xuan at the Yuxiao Palace.

The heavens have nine levels: Cloud Heaven, Azure Heaven, Green Heaven, Crimson Heaven, Radiant Heaven, Divine Heaven, Jade Heaven, Purple Heaven, and Dark Heaven.

These are the nine realms of the human heart.

The clouds obscure the sun, making its appearance impossible to discern.

The heavens and the underworld are vast, and the human heart is as deep as an abyss.

The blue sky appeared, and the world was bathed in light.

The crimson color was astonishing, moving even gods and demons.

Jingxiao was bewildered, his heart and soul were devoured.

The divine punishment will be imposed from beginning to end.

A clear and transparent mind understands all things.

Purple and mysterious heavens, all wonders are known to themselves.

Sitting on the purple palm, his strength was still insufficient.

You can project your own life onto this concept; the Nine Realms of the Human Mind are the nine stages of life.

Farmers, scholars, craftsmen, soldiers... anyone is welcome.

This contains the way of investigating things by a sage, who used his own life to understand the layered nature of the sky and stars.

In fact, Zhao Xuan saw it as atmospheric stratification and star stratification.

Clouds are formed when warm water vapor in the lower troposphere condenses into cold water vapor in the upper troposphere.

A clear sky indicates stable stratospheric airflow, clear weather, and high atmospheric transparency.

The Qingxiao layer is a mesosphere where the upper part is cold and the lower part is warm, but the air is thin and there is strong convection.

Chixiao is caused by extremely high temperatures in the thermosphere, thin atmosphere, and intense electromagnetic activity.

Jingxiao is also a thermosphere, where intense electromagnetic activity can easily lead to phenomena such as the aurora.

Shenxiao is the escape layer, which has a higher temperature and is less affected by Earth's gravity, and is already connected to the universe and the starry sky.

Yuxiao is a star system without an atmosphere, making it appear even brighter.

Zixiao refers to exploration outside of this star system.

Xuanxiao is the entire universe.

Sitting in the purple palm, my strength is still insufficient. This actually means that only when the universe is so vast do we realize how insignificant human exploration is.

In terms of cultivation, even if one reaches the Human Emperor realm and controls the destiny of the human race, there are still many things one cannot do.

The Jade Cloud Palace in the imperial palace signifies that the emperor's mind is so clear that no one can be busier than him, describing the extent of his control over the world.

For those in a fantasy civilization whose power originates from themselves, as long as they remain within their realm, there is nothing mysterious about it.

The reason for all this mystical stuff is to make it easier for humans to accept their leaders.

According to Shenxiao, when Shenxiao punishes, it is like a meteorite entering the atmosphere, sparking from friction with the atmosphere, and with its acceleration, it can destroy a piece of land in an instant, just like divine punishment.

As for why it's said to be divine punishment, the outer space has no oxygen, so meteorites don't generate sparks like they do in the atmosphere, and their long tails make them easily visible.

This is why there is a saying that divine punishment originates from the Divine Firmament.

The method of the human and immortal realms is to manifest images; they can condense an image of the Nine Heavens upon seeing it.

The more fantastical your ideas are, the more others will fear them, and the greater the power of the elephant becomes.

This is how the concept of the Nine Heavens gradually became a myth and was passed down through generations.
