Jiuding has been in the human world for many years. According to legend, the tenth volume of the ancient Book of Heaven, Confucianism and Taoism, is hidden in the Jiuding.
It is precisely because of this legend that the four emperors of heaven designed it and asked the devil Chi You to obtain the Jiuding and send it to heaven.
After Tianjie obtained Jiuding, it studied it many times and asked many Hongru masters in Tianjie to study it, but without exception, no one could see through the secret of Jiuding.
Later, after Jiuding was divided up by the Four Heavenly Emperors, the possible secrets of Confucianism and Taoism on it were gradually forgotten.
For cultivators in the heavenly world, Jiuding has been reduced to a defensive weapon and is increasingly ignored.
In the catastrophe ten years ago, the owners of many divine cauldrons in the heavens relied on the divine cauldron to attract the pursuit of masters of cultivation in the world, so many divine cauldrons were recovered from the world.
Due to differences in civilization, people in the heavenly realm do not understand the meaning of the Nine Tripods.
People in the heavenly world don't even understand the status of Jiuding in the hearts of the people in the world.
According to the records in "Historical Records·Fengchan Shu".
"Yu Mu used the gold of the nine states to cast the nine tripods, and they all enjoyed the sacrifice of God and ghosts."
From these few sentences, it can be seen that Jiuding is not a magic weapon, but a sacrificial vessel used to offer sacrifices to God and ghosts and gods.
As the supreme artifact of China, there are endless legends surrounding Jiuding.
The most widely circulated saying in the world is "He who wins the Nine Cauldrons will win the world."
It can be seen that Jiuding has risen to the height of Jiangshan Sheji.
In fact, Ye Xiaochuan brought back two divine cauldrons to the world. The first divine cauldron that appeared in the world was the Daqing Cauldron in the hands of Luo Shenfu ten years ago. Ye Xiaochuan snatched it, which made the world boil.
When Elder Cangyun brought the Da Qing Ding back to Cangyun from southern Xinjiang, Yu Jizi conducted a series of sacrificial activities in Cangyun Mountain.
His Majesty the Emperor also held a grand sacrificial ceremony at the Imperial Ancestral Temple with hundreds of civil and military officials.
Later, when human beings met for alliance, the big green tripod was used as the main sacrificial vessel.
However, the Daqing Cauldron has nothing to do with Ye Xiaochuan now. The world only remembers Ye Xiaochuan's evil deeds and has completely forgotten that among the countless contributions Ye Xiaochuan made to the world ten years ago, one of them was to bring back the Da Qing Cauldron to the world.
Ye Xiaochuan did not obtain the Great Yong Cauldron through a fight. He obtained it through coercion and inducement many times, and even used a beauty trick that he was unwilling to do, before he coaxed it from Xiao Qi's hands outside the empty cave in Qianbo Mountain in Death River.
Come.
The altar has been set up, and there is an area between the two four-legged and long-eared bronze cauldrons, which is used to place the Yong cauldron.
The two big cauldrons arranged by the Demon Cult are a bit interesting. They are quite similar to the Hunyuan Cauldron on Long Tianshan. They should be imitations of the Hunyuan Cauldron.
In the past, Ye Xiaochuan thought that the Hunyuan Cauldron was the big cauldron in the Xuanhuo Palace. It was only a while ago that he learned from Yu Linglong that it was a fake and that the real Hunyuan Cauldron was actually on Long Tianshan's body.
It seems that the Hunyuan Cauldron imitated by the Demon Sect is not only the one in the Xuanhuo Palace, but a contemporary handicraft produced wholesale.
Jiuding is divided into five yang and four yin, and there are also five male and four female sayings.
It is very simple to identify. The three-legged round tripod with long ears is the Yang tripod, and there are five in total.
The four-legged square tripod with long ears is called the Yin tripod, and there are four in total.
The Great Yong Tripod is a three-legged round Yang tripod. Among the nine palaces, the Great Yong Tripod ranks sixth. After it was cast, it was placed in Yongzhou by Dayu.
Ye Tianci took out the Great Yong Cauldron from his empty bracelet, held it in both hands, and came to the middle of the two fake Hunyuan Cauldrons.
I saw him throwing it into the sky, and the small round three-legged cauldron, which was only the size of a human head, suddenly released a dazzling light, forming a small ball of light in mid-air.
The small fireball floated in the air for a few breaths, then spun and fell downwards.
In the process of spinning and falling, the small light ball expanded rapidly. When it was still about ten feet away from the altar floor, the light ball exploded, and a three-legged round tripod appeared in everyone's field of vision.
The three-legged round tripod slowly rotated and fell, and then hit the altar with a loud bang.
The whole altar shook.
At this moment, this three-legged round tripod has turned into a giant tripod three feet tall.
The two imitation Hunyuan Cauldrons on both sides were obviously three times smaller in front of it.
Before the Great Yong Cauldron appeared, many people thought that Ye Xiaochuan was bragging. After all, for so many years, they had never heard of the Great Yong Cauldron appearing in the world, let alone that the Great Yong Cauldron was acquired by Ye Xiaochuan.
According to the information in the world, the Great Yong Cauldron is in the hands of the Western Emperor’s favorite youngest daughter, Princess Xiaoqi.
Those who question Ye Xiaochuan's lack of such a tripod and want to see Ye Xiaochuan's jokes.
When they saw the three-legged round tripod full of vicissitudes of life, they all closed their mouths.
This is definitely not a fake Xibei product.
Look at the two imitations of the Hunyuan Cauldron next to them. Although they have been imitated for nearly a thousand years and have been exposed to wind and sun all day long, they have also patinated, but their own sense of history, weight and vicissitudes are completely incomparable with the big ones.
Yong and Ding speak the same language.
Everyone came to a conclusion when they saw the huge mountain-like divine cauldron on the altar.
This is the real Yong Ding!
The divine cauldron falls and the sacrificial activities begin.
Demonic religion is the core of the culture of the Western Regions. Although they have been influenced by the Confucian culture of China over the years and are proud to learn Confucian culture, the sacrifices are still significantly different from the Confucian etiquette.
As we all know, the Western Regions are composed of many ethnic groups, and each ethnic group has its own beliefs, which are very mixed.
In Confucian sacrificial rituals, the most common ones are three animals. If it is a royal sacrifice, a Zen ceremony on Mount Tai, a sacrifice to the sky, there are also grains, jade bis, inkstones, bronzes, sacrificial tables, etc.
Sacrifices in the Western Regions often include tributes of cattle and sheep, but in the big sacrifices, there are five items that are very different.
sun.
moon.
flame.
Clear water.
and male genitals.
The Sun God is one of the oldest and most powerful gods among the beliefs of various ethnic groups in the Western Regions. Almost every ethnic group worships the sun because of the light it brings to them.
moon.
Some nomadic peoples in the Western Regions use the moon as a totem and worship it.
Flames were not commonly seen in the sacrificial culture of the Western Regions before. It was after the rise of the Holy Fire Cult in the Western Regions and a certain influence that flame sacrifices were gradually added to the sacrifices.
Clear water.
Most of the Western Regions are deserts and Gobi deserts with harsh climates and severe water shortages. Water is the source of life for all things, so all ethnic groups in the Western Regions cherish water very much.
In the Western Region, you can waste golden coins, but you can never waste a gourd of water.
The first four kinds of sacrificial supplies are relatively easy to understand.
The last thing has always been difficult for the people of China to accept.
In Confucian culture, sex is a taboo topic, let alone being carved into a wooden sculpture and placed on the altar table in public. This is simply offensive!
