Chapter 252: A Different Conferred God War (Part 1)
"Boom----" Ye Tian felt as if his mind was struck by lightning, and he was stunned.
Oh my god, what did he hear, Shen Gongbao???
Who is Shen Gongbao?? He is the only anomaly in the Conferred God War. He is the disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun. He is the only betrayer among all the Yuxu disciples. What Ye Tian remembers most clearly is the sentence of Shen Gongbao.
The most classic line, "Fellow Taoist, please stay."
With just this sentence, Shen Gongbao recruited countless masters for Yin Zhou, and he was the most eloquent person in the entire Conferred God War.
It's a pity that he was born at the wrong time, and he was not favored by Yuanshi Tianzun when he was in Kunlun. Later, because he helped King Zhou, he repeatedly opposed the teachings at that time, causing great difficulties for King Wu Jifa to conquer Zhou.
He filled in the eye of the North Sea, and was finally named the "General Dividing Water from the East China Sea" by Ziya.
But don’t think that becoming a god after death is a good thing. In fact, not being canonized is a better result than becoming a god. Because people with weak roots, insufficient moral conduct, and insufficient sources of blessings, people with unclean minds cannot achieve the path of free immortality.
In the Shinto way, you have to go up the list of gods, and after becoming a god, you have to perform priestly duties, key points, and are bound by the laws of heaven and the list of gods; while in the immortal way,
Carefree and at ease.
And this god is not the kind of god we imagine, who can roam freely between heaven and earth.
Usually people always talk about gods, gods, and gods. Gods always dominate the gods. In fact, this is not the case at all.
You must know that in addition to the secular world, the world is divided into six realms, namely immortals, demons, Buddhas, demons, ghosts, and the underworld. In addition, who has ever heard of another divine realm?
Besides, among the six realms, apart from the saints, those with the highest cultivation level are the Immortal Emperor, Demon Emperor, Demon Emperor, etc., and so on, and by analogy, one can attain the Holy Fruit of Hunyuan, and then jump out of the Five Elements.
Who has heard of any god-like cultivation stage other than true freedom and freedom?
So basically all the people who entered the list of gods have actually become the thugs of Heaven, and they have to work hard for Heaven at any time, and they are also cheap.
Ye Tian had been familiar with the book Fengshen Interpretation, and he admired Shen Gongbao very much, even though the world may think Shen Gongbao was a traitor to the Chan religion and a villain.
But Ye Tian has never seen it this way. He has always thought that Shen Gongbao is a remarkable person. Maybe you can say that he does not distinguish between good and evil, but he definitely belongs to the ranks of loyal ministers.
You must know that King Zhou was tyrannical and many ministers defected, but Shen Gongbao was the only one who always stayed with King Zhou. Moreover, Shen Gongbao had a great advantage, that is, Shen Gongbao was always upright and straightforward.
In the past, if you like it, you just like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it. Compared with Jiang Ziya, who is weak in character, flattering, and devoted to pleasing King Wu Jifa, he is countless times stronger.
It's just that Shen Gongbao failed in the end. If King Zhou could have won with his help, Shen Gongbao might not be like what the legend says now.
After all, history is written by the victors, right???
Looking at the big man in fine clothes in front of him, it was really hard for Ye Tian to imagine him as the gossip-mongering Shen Gongbao in the Conferred Gods War, because although the big man in front of him was not handsome, he was definitely a smart and capable type.
.
"Boy, have you heard about my story?" Seeing Ye Tian's surprised expression, Shen Gongbao immediately knew that the boy in front of him had definitely heard about his own story, otherwise he would never have this expression. The reborn Almighty Dharma God.
"Of course I've heard of it." Ye Tian swallowed hard and said, "But weren't you filled with the Eye of the North Sea and became the water-dividing general?"
"What's the Eye of the North Sea? What's the Water-Dividing General?? Why don't I know??" Shen Gongbao said in surprise, as if Ye Tian's words were some big joke.
"Didn't you get on the list of gods??" Ye Tian asked, is there any difference here? According to what was said in the battle of gods, Shen Gongbao should have been on the list of gods. Now he is under the control of Heavenly Court. Come on, why do you actually appear in this Sumeru Illusion Formation now?
"Hahahahaha----" After hearing Ye Tian's words, Shen Gongbao suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.
After a long time, Shen Gongbao stopped laughing and gasped, "Boy, although the list of gods is indeed very powerful, it is based on dead people. I am not dead, how could I get on that list?" Where is the list of gods?? Besides, that Jiang Ziya wants to hurt me?? It’s just a joke.”
Listening to what Shen Gongbao said, coupled with Shen Gongbao's disdainful expression when he mentioned Jiang Ziya, Ye Tian immediately understood that there was definitely an ulterior secret in it.
When he thought of this, Ye Tian suddenly became excited, thinking that he might be able to understand another ancient secret, so he hurriedly said, "Brother Shen Gongbao, can you tell me what happened back then?"
"Of course, but I think you know a lot about what happened back then. How about you tell me first, and then I'll tell you the truth?" Shen Gongbao said with a smile. He was also curious about so many years. In the past, how did things about him spread in the first place?
Ye Tian quickly nodded in agreement, and then told everything he knew about the Conferred Gods War. However, Ye Tian also learned about the Conferred Gods War from books, although he said that when he read it Ye Tian also felt that there were many doubts in it, but since it was a book after all, no one could discuss the contents with him, so he left it alone.
But it's different now. The person standing in front of him now is Shen Gongbao who directly participated in the Battle of the Gods from the beginning to the end. So Ye Tian can naturally find the answers to those questions. .
However, Ye Tian was only focused on speaking happily at this time and did not notice Shen Gongbao's face that had turned livid.
After a long, long time, Ye Tian finally told everything he knew about the Conferred Gods War, and then looked at Shen Gongbao with a hopeful look on his face.
It was only then that Ye Tian noticed Shen Gongbao's face, which was so ugly, so he quickly and cautiously asked, "Brother Shen Gongbao, are you okay?"
Although Ye Tian knew that Shen Gongbao would not do anything to him, he was really afraid that Shen Gongbao would become angry and stop talking to him about what happened back then.
"Alas----" Shen Gongbao sighed deeply and said, "I can't believe that what happened back then will be spread like this now. How can this be right for the brothers who died in the Jie Cult back then?"
Shen Gongbao seemed to remember what happened back then, and he fell into extreme sadness.
Ye Tian didn't say anything when he saw this scene. He didn't know what it was like at the beginning, so naturally he couldn't comfort the sad Shen Gongbao, so he had to stand aside silently, waiting for Shen Gongbao.
It is said that men never shed tears easily. Seeing Shen Gongbao's sad look, the only thing Ye Tian was sure about was that the Conferred God War should not have been what he said. After all, so many years have passed, and it is not accurate. I'm afraid the legend will become another thing. After all, those who experienced the Conferred God War are no longer in the world. Who can really know what happened back then? If he hadn't met Shen Gongbao, it would have been Ye Tian He himself thought that what he read in books was the truth.
After another long time, Shen Gongbao's mood slowly calmed down. He took a deep breath and said to Ye Tian: "Little guy, I'm a little bit out of control, but I really didn't expect that scene back then. The war will turn out like what you just said."
"Then what's wrong?" Ye Tian asked quickly.
"What's wrong?? Humph, this thing wasn't right from the beginning." Shen Gongbao said.
"It wasn't right from the beginning??" Ye Tian was dumbfounded. He could imagine that there must be something wrong with this matter, but he never expected that Shen Gongbao would deny everything he said, which meant that he was about to face him in front of him What will be revealed will be an ancient secret, and it is very likely to be a huge conspiracy.
"This is natural. You said that this war only started because of a poem that King Zhou mentioned in the Wa Palace??" Shen Gongbao said.
"Isn't it wrong??" Ye Tian asked, this is what is written in the book.
"Of course that's not true. Empress Nuwa is a saint who has attained the Holy Fruit of Hunyuan. She is a supreme being. How can she be like you little mortals?"
When Ye Tian heard this, he immediately felt that what Shen Gongbao said made sense. In the past, he had felt that there was something wrong here, but now Shen Gongbao's words were like waking up the dreamer.
Empress Nuwa is a saint, why would she care about what a small mortal thinks of her? Besides, there are so many people who just scold God when they have nothing to do. Even so, I have never seen God directly destroy this person. Yes, since it's okay to scold her directly, then this song will definitely not make Empress Nuwa so angry.
"Well, Brother Shen Gongbao, you are right, it is really the case." Ye Tian figured it out, so he said, "But I really want to know what the real situation of the Conferred God War is like. I'm very worried about it." I am just curious, and I have never figured it out. You are a person who explains the teachings, and you are also a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun. How come you actually helped that King Zhou in the end? You must know that King Zhou of Yin was a huge fool. , Logically speaking, such a person should definitely die.”
"Haha, you'd better stop asking. I'll just tell you everything. After I finish speaking, you will probably understand what's going on here." Shen Gongbao smiled and sat down cross-legged in front of Ye Tian.
