In the thousand-year-old mausoleums underground, emperors sleep with dreams of eternal life, and the palaces are like underground imperial cities.
At this time, it was filled with a strange power.
This power is very calm, it is not violent, but it is deep and far-reaching enough.
Zuo Ci looked at the hole of light in front of him, and he knew that what he had been pursuing all his life had appeared.
As long as he takes this step, he can choose a brand new world, where he has the opportunity to escape from this despairing destiny.
Time seemed to have stood still. After a long time, no one moved.
Li Yu looked at the three of them in surprise and asked, "What's wrong with you? You're not leaving?"
No one answered him. Zuo Ci, Baimao and Chibi had different expressions, all with some indescribable emotions.
Is it unwillingness, nostalgia or regret?
They are all immortal Daxiu cultivators. Within these three realms, there are all their experiences from scratch, from small to large, from weak to strong, including Xuan Hu.
When he first came here, he was also a weak fox.
During this long journey, they didn't know how many things they had experienced. They thought they had forgotten them all, but at this time, they all came to their hearts.
Zuo Ci was the first to speak. He looked around, his eyes a little dodgey, and said: "Otherwise... I'll look for anything good and take it with me to avoid being harmed by others over there."
On the other side of the light hole is absolutely unknown, but one thing is certain, their power will become unsolvable there.
Just like the nine disasters in this time and space, there is no special restraint method for a completely different power system.
Many animals will overrun in Australia because they have no natural enemies there.
Li Yu smiled and said: "Great, since you won't leave, let's find a way to get out. I always feel scared when I stay here, especially after knowing that the person in the coffin is still alive."
Bai Mao slowly closed his eyes, the light hole disappeared, and the underground palace returned to normal, except that all the magic weapons had disappeared.
As an extraterrestrial alien, Bai Mao has also awakened his strongest skill. If he can't defeat him after opening his third eye, he can at least escape.
I just don’t know if this Celestial Eye is a one-way street.
Maoling was completely empty at this point. Not only was Emperor Wu's treasure house gone, but even the harem he had prepared for himself was empty.
It was pointless to stay here any longer. Li Yusheng was afraid of being discovered and affecting his relationship with Li Shimin, so he couldn't wait to leave.
The opening of the Sky Eye not only awakened Baimao's natural skills, but also prepared a way out for himself.
The road to declaring war with the sky is really difficult. He has just begun, just like crossing the sea and just entering the water.
Li Yu himself planned to fight to the bitter end, but if nothing could be done, he would stay and join the heroes of the Six Dynasties, but he could send away his relatives and friends.
Zuo Ci Baimao and Chi Bi had been collecting magic weapons for so long, but after they really succeeded, they seemed to have entered the time of the sage, and they were not interested in anything.
Facing Maoling's other things, they couldn't muster any energy, so they just nodded and prepared to leave.
It can be seen that after going through all kinds of hardships and finally achieving their goal, they are not happy.
Maybe from the beginning, their choice to escape was a self-deceptive idea.
If people could really cut off all their worries and give up all their obsessions, then why would they go to another world? Wouldn't it be the end of the world if they could directly become a part of heaven?
Isn't it the stubbornness and unyielding in their bones that makes their life so tiring, and is it contrary to the way of heaven?
Whether it is Chi Bi, the one-horned ghost king who is the vanguard of the riot in the Heavenly Palace, Bai Mao, the black fox who was born with a strange species, or Zuo Ci, the wandering Taoist priest playing in the human world, who is resisting for his own benefit?
They are not selfish and coldhearted people, so naturally they cannot let go of everything.
At this time, Li Yu had an idea. He left a clone in the underground palace, and then sat on the ground to meditate.
In the future, I will send someone in to study Emperor Wu's sealing technique and what its principles are.
To be honest, although he brought three people here this time, Li Yu actually didn't want to come. Now is not a good time to come to Maoling.
The Conferment of Gods is about to begin, how can you rashly do something like this that will offend the most powerful force in the Human Alliance?
You know, Datang is not someone to be trifled with...

Li Yu just came out of Maoling and returned to the warrior Xun's house. He changed into a Taoist robe and soaked in the bathtub to relax comfortably.
The steam was thick and steaming, making his skin turn red, but Li Yu enjoyed it.
Compared to the gloomy Maoling Underground Palace, this place is simply paradise. He has lived underground for a month, but it is not as cold as tonight.
Just because this time he was tired not only of his body, but also of his mind.
There was a rush of footsteps outside, and the person pushed the door open without knocking.
As soon as Li Yu saw that it was the warrior Yu, he knew something big was going to happen. He felt guilty for a while and prepared to run away with his father-in-law and his family.
But when he saw the lack of panic on Samurai Yu's face, he knew that he might have guessed wrong. Sure enough, Samurai Yu said excitedly: "Hey, where have you been and why are you back now?"
Li Yu's eyes moved and he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty has sent people to find you several times. Prime Minister Zhuge of the Shu Kingdom proposed that my Majesty, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, preside over a meeting before the canonization of gods in Chang'an to consolidate the legitimacy of the canonization of gods. Your Majesty has agreed. Envoys from the five countries
They have all arrived in Chang'an City!"
"Ah?" Li Yu quickly sat up straight, "Is there such a thing?"
Zhuge Liang is indeed powerful. This move raised Tang Dynasty's hand and virtually established him as the leader of the alliance.
With this identity, Li Shimin could mediate the conflicts between the Six Dynasties.
This is a position that is extremely glamorous but has no practical benefits. It is just right for Li Shimin to do it.
Because in this way, it also avoids the possibility of him directly becoming the so-called leader of the Six Dynasties Alliance. Everyone no longer needs the leader of the alliance, and having this identity is enough.
For the other five countries, if there is an alliance leader, their strength will not be able to compete with the Tang Dynasty; in this case, it is better to directly take on the identity of a initiator and actively give it to Li Shimin, and use retreat to advance to avoid Li Shimin from forcing him to sit down.
The position of leader.
And even if this move fails to achieve the above goal, there is no problem at all.
Since everyone wants to enshrine a god, they must hold a grand event first.
If the teacher is unknown, how can he win over people's hearts?
"I'm going to see your Majesty right now!" Li Yu was about to get out of the bathtub. The warrior Yu stopped him and said, "It's too late. Your Majesty can't wait for you. All the steps have been worked out with the ministers. The layout of Chang'an City has begun.
, the location is located in the square outside Taiji Hall, and yesterday we held a royal banquet to entertain the envoys from the five countries."
Li Yu pursed his lips and said, "Our Majesty is really impatient."
Li Shimin has wanted to dominate the world for too long. Since there is no chance at all now, it would be good to be the de facto leader and nominal sponsor of the alliance.
I wonder who else in this world can command the Six Dynasties.

In Chang'an City, envoys from the other five countries were welcomed.
Everyone is here to participate in the grand event and plan to enshrine gods and worship heaven.
Those who respect Heaven observe the phenomena of Heaven, study the extremes of Heaven, and follow the way of Heaven. This is called respecting Heaven!
This time the restrictions on the ceremony were relaxed, and private people could watch from the outside. The Tang Dynasty even sent people to build a viewing platform.
In the square, the court musicians of the Tang Dynasty played majestic ancient music. Along with the music, representatives of the Six Dynasties took the stage one after another.
It was Guan Yu who came from the Kingdom of Shu. When he walked onto the stage, there was an exclamation from below, which gathered into a wave and echoed endlessly.
Guan Yu's expression did not change, he stood at his position, his eyes did not squint, and he stood there like a tall and tall tree.
After Guan Yu, came the envoys from the Wei Dynasty. This time it was Zhang Liao. He and Guan Yu had a very good personal relationship. Although they were once enemy countries, they were not incompatible at all when they stood in the same place, and they even greeted each other happily.
"Wen Yuan, we haven't seen each other for a long time, but your charm has not diminished."
"Yunchang, I often hear your name in Hefei."
Guan Yu laughed and said, "What a pity..."
He did not continue, but Zhang Liao knew what he meant. It was a pity that his actions were terminated by this battle between heaven and man, otherwise Guan Yu's Northern Expedition would probably have dealt a heavy blow to the Wei Dynasty.
Zhang Liao wisely did not provoke, and the two started chatting.
Next on the stage was Lu Su. Although Soochow and Shu were in trouble, Lu Su's popularity was still very good.
If the person who came today was not him, even if it was Zhou Yu, Guan Yu would have to curse a few words. But when Lu Su came up, Guan Yu just sighed.
The two people on this stage are not good enemies for Soochow. Guan Yu has occupied Jingxiang for many years, and Zhang Liao is the bitter master of Soochow.
After Lu Su came on stage, he briefly exchanged greetings and stopped talking. Even Zhang Liao and Guan Yu, who had been chatting enthusiastically, fell silent.
After Lu Su, there was Yu Qian, the youngest cabinet scholar in the Ming Dynasty, and the most valued civil servant in the Ming Dynasty today.
He greeted several people politely, then stood aside with his hands down, his attitude neither humble nor arrogant, because he was not well-known and did not arouse the exclamation of surprise like Guan Yu.
Then came the envoy from the Song Dynasty. The person who came to the stage was Han Shizhong, the deputy marshal of troops and horses in charge of Jiangnan Road in the Song Dynasty.
Because his jurisdiction was Jiangnan, bordering Soochow, and there were no foreigners. So he had nothing to do, so the Song Dynasty asked him to come, and the weight was barely enough.
Han Shizhong's reputation in the Six Dynasties was about the same as that of Yu Qian, and the national power of the Song Dynasty was not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty, so I thought there would be no cheers.
But on the contrary, after Han Shizhong came to power, the people watching cheered.
It turns out that there were too many merchants in the Song Dynasty, and they were rich enough to get tickets for this grand ceremony, so even though it was in Chang'an, there were many people from the Song Dynasty.
Han Shizhong smiled and glanced at Guan Yu and Zhang Liao more when he came on stage. He was not afraid of the stage. He exchanged symbolic greetings and stood aside.
The last person to appear was the host, Datang. Before anyone came out, everyone on the viewing platform had already stood up.
The sound of the drums changed, and then a bright red carpet rolled away on its own, with no one around to control it.
The guards on both sides took a step forward one after another, standing with swords in hand. They were wearing gold helmets, silver armor, brocade robes and capes, and they looked very mighty.
A figure walked out of the hall, and everyone couldn't help but tiptoe to look. When they saw the person clearly, they burst into cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami.
The person who came was wearing a dragon robe, striding forward like a dragon or a tiger.
Behind him was the queen, and behind him was a Taoist priest.
Li Yu looked at the couple in front of him and felt disgusted in his heart. You said you are here to show off, why are you taking me with you?
The people in front of him were really Li Shimin and Empress Changsun. Li Shimin even waited a moment and stretched out his hand for Empress Changsun to take her hand.
Li Shimin walked to the center of the high platform, with the envoys from the Five Kingdoms behind him. He waved his hands to calm the crowd and said loudly: "Benevolence educates all living beings, righteousness conquers unfailingly, all Xia pays tribute, and hundreds of barbarians fight. Today we are gathering at
This, to respect Heavenly Dharma Ancestor, is to enthrone God!”
His voice was diffused by the Taoist priests using dozens of sound transmission magic weapons, and resounded throughout Chang'an City, and everyone could hear it clearly.
"From now on, those who contribute to the country are called gods, those who are virtuous to their clan are called immortals, those who are beneficial to the people are called saints, and those who are beneficial to oneself are called sages!"
With this sentence, the status of gods and Buddhas was revoked, causing the world to change color.
But Li Shimin's face did not change, he looked up to the sky and continued: "We respect the human emperors: Fuxi, Shennong, Xuanyuan, Shaohao and Zhuanxu are the ancestors of humanities and the emperors of the five directions!"
Kaka!
Two thunderbolts landed on the ground and were taken away by Li Yu. Only now did he know why Li Shimin insisted on following them.
Co-authorship is coming as a lightning rod...
Empress Changsun was very supportive of Li Shimin and the people of the Tang Dynasty. Faced with such power of heaven and earth, she did not panic, but stood behind Li Shimin with firm eyes.
The performance of the emperor and empress made the already fanatical people even more excited.
The common people are like this. As long as someone they recognize takes the lead, they will dare to overthrow any authority.
What are gods? Didn’t you see that that is our emperor?
Li Shimin said in a few words that the human world no longer recognizes those religious gods, and from now on the human world will only worship ancestor gods.
Those who contribute to the country are called gods, those who are virtuous to their clan are called immortals, those who are beneficial to the people are called saints, and those who are beneficial to oneself are called sages!
This means that a large number of civil servants and generals are about to become gods, and the legal system for them to become gods has already been established. The last afterglow of the Human Emperor, the current Human Emperor of the Six Dynasties, is about to shine with the most dazzling brilliance.
From now on, religion can no longer be the birthplace of gods, allowing so many bird gods to enjoy the worship of humans for nothing.
No matter how high your cultivation level is, if you have no virtue, no good deeds, and no meritorious deeds, you are just a high-level monk.
If you want to receive a salary, be worshiped, or receive tributes, I'm sorry, but you don't deserve it!
Li Yu was very satisfied. He was right not to participate. He should fully trust these outstanding figures from the Six Dynasties.
They are much better than me in this aspect.
The raising of so many inflammatory slogans signifies that the world has officially declared war on heaven.
Although we have fought before, we haven't declared war yet, so it's just a fight.
Now it's a life-and-death war.
Li Yu felt like his blood was boiling all over, and he wanted to start fighting right away, until the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and he would not rest until he died.
