531: Three Pure Ones and Four Imperial Kings, Five Old Emperors
"You are the cruelest person I have ever met."
Long Zu looked at Zuo Chongming, who was seriously injured and dying, with a sigh of relief, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
There is always no shortage of people who are cruel to others, but there is not even one out of ten thousand people who can be cruel to oneself.
This is the first time that Long Zu has met someone as ruthless as Zuo Chongming in all his years of life.
Who can take the foundation he has built and worked so hard for and throw it away as bait without blinking an eye?
Who can use the strength of the Star Realm to face the siege of dozens of warriors of the same realm and the siege of seventeen giants of the Dharma Realm, and promote the plan at the cost of his own death?
In the whole world, Zuo Chongming was the only one who thought this way, did this, and somehow succeeded...
How could Long Ancestor not be impressed by such courage and character?
"Cough, cough~!"
Zuo Chongming coughed up a blood clot and managed a smile: "Thank you for the compliment."
Long Zu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You were severely injured first, and then fell into a space storm. I didn't expect you to survive."
Zuo Chongming chuckled: "But the facts now prove that I did survive."
Long Zu sighed and sat down to pour tea: "How long do you need to cultivate?"
"Any time."
Zuo Chongming pointed not far away, where there was a mountain peak made of spiritual rings.
"..."
The corners of Long Zu's mouth twitched and he fell into unspeakable silence.
To be honest, he has been working on the Yunmeng Treasure Ship for so many years and accumulated an incredible amount of wealth.
But when it comes to the total value of wealth, it is far less than what Zuo Chongming accumulated over more than ten years...
I have to admit that Zuo Chongming understands the four words "using money to make money" very well.
"It's easy to make money."
Zuo Chongming closed his eyes and murmured: "Times can change, the situation can change... but people's hearts and human nature will not change."
"As long as you understand this, whether you want to make money or not depends on whether you are willing or not, but the prerequisite is not to hold on to it."
"There is only one disease in the world: the disease of poverty, and most of the people suffering from this disease are good people who follow the rules and abide by the law. Do you know why?"
It can be summed up in one sentence - nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are not a human being!
Long Zu shrugged: "Because good people are often unwilling to let go due to moral, quality and other reasons."
"That's right."
Zuo Chongming sneered and said lazily: "Those who are covered with silkworms are not sericulture people. That's what they say."
While he was speaking, a large number of spiritual rings floated over, scattering large amounts of primeval stones and drowning him.
As the vitality of heaven and earth was absorbed and plundered, the Yuan Stone quickly turned into powder, and the wounds on Zuo Chongming's body also recovered quickly.
"But then again."
Longzu looked at the video played on the TV and sighed: "Zheng Guo, Wu Guo, they attacked Xiyun Mansion separately. It can be said that their mouths are full of oil."
"And their biggest concern is that since you are dead, they will be able to do anything they want no matter what they do in the future."
Zuo Chongming's laughter came from the pile of stones, mixed with a faint sentence: "A layman."
"Um?"
Long Zu's eyes twitched and he looked at him speechlessly.
Zuo Chongming explained lazily: "It can be seen from your words that you are just a strong man, but not a manager."
Long Zu raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Oh? I would like to hear why."
"The first thing is your first sentence."
Zuo Chongming said: "If their country is a fish pond, then the act of annexing Xiyun Mansion is like throwing a shark into it."
"Sharks rushing into fish ponds will inevitably lead to chaos in the entire ecology. This problem can only be solved slowly over time."
"So in the long run, their mouths will indeed be full of oil, but they will also feel uncomfortable after eating. This is a pros and cons."
Long Zu thought about it carefully and asked: "What about the second sentence? Don't you think you are their biggest worry?"
Zuo Chongming smiled and said: "Whether I am a serious problem for them or not has nothing to do with how they act freely in the future."
"Because their territory is so large, it will inevitably lead to internal factions and grouping of interests, so it is impossible for the monarch to act freely."
"When they make any decision, they must consider all aspects, not only domestic interests, but also other countries."
Dragon Ancestor suddenly said: "You mean, no matter whether you exist or not, they can't let go and do anything?"
"I am very sure of that."
Zuo Chongming walked out of the pile of stones in high spirits: "What leaders play is trade-offs. The essence of politics is compromise, unless you are personally strong enough..."
"Like you?"
Longzu handed over a cup of tea and said with a half-smile.
"Pull him down."
Zuo Chongming shook his head and replied with a sneer: "I can speak my mind in Xiyun Mansion because I have the confidence to have full control."
"But if you put me in the position of king of a big country like Zheng or Wu, I may not be as good as them."
"The bigger the stall is, the more difficult it is to manage. This is a truth that applies to both ancient and modern times, because everyone has their own little ideas."
"Let's get down to business."
Long Zu rolled his eyes. He admitted that he was far inferior to Zuo Chongming in terms of calculation, so he simply changed the subject and stopped humiliating himself.
"Okay, you say."
Zuo Chongming shook his robe and dust off his body, and Shi Shiran sat down.
Long Ancestor said seriously: "The speed of space flow over the ruins of Heavenly Court is very different from that here. I estimate it is about one to five."
After Zuo Chongming performed the play with him, Long Zu took the opportunity to visit the ruins of Heaven.
But to avoid accidents, he just went there once, installed the teleportation array and then came back.
Zuo Chongming nodded: "One day in the ruins of heaven, five days have passed in this world?"
"Um."
Longzu frowned: "At least that's the case in the place I went to, but you mentioned the Qilin Ancestral Land, so I can't rule out that the flow rate is different in other places."
Zuo Chongming glanced at him and asked, "How much do your ancestors know about Heaven?"
"It's a long story."
Long Zu smoothed his thoughts and pondered: "The structure of Heavenly Court is actually similar to that of sects, and sects imitate this structure."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "The Three Pure Ones are the Yuanshi Heavenly Lord of the Yuqing Dynasty, the Supreme Purity Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Lord, the Taiqing Daode Heavenly Lord, and the Daode Heavenly Lord is also called Taishang Laojun."
"The Sanqing can be understood as the supreme elders in the sect. They do not actually hold power. The person in power is the Jade Emperor, who is the leader of the sect."
"Then there are the Four Emperors, the emperors who rule the four directions of heaven. Their relationship with the Jade Emperor is like brothers, only half a level apart."
"The four emperors are the Great Emperor Ziwei of the North Pole, the Great Emperor Qinghua of the East Pole, the Great Emperor Changsheng of the South Pole, and the Great Emperor Gouchen Shanggong."
"Further down are the Five Elders. Although the Five Elders are also emperors, they are mainly responsible for worldly power and responsibilities, and there is no conflict with the authority of the Four Imperial Kings."
"Then there are the Sixth Division, the Seventh Division, etc. These are all departments, all under the command of the Jade Emperor, responsible for governing the Heavenly Court."
"Baji refers to the direction, and Jiuyao refers to the star palace. The immortals in the star palace belong to the four emperors and the five elders. There are so many that they are hard to count."
"As for the ten capitals, it refers to the ten kings of hell in the underworld. They are responsible for reincarnation, reincarnation and other powers and responsibilities, and they are under the command of Queen Houtu."
"Empress Houtu is also known as the Emperor of Houtu who followed the example of Chengtian. In terms of status, she is similar to the four emperors, but because she is not in heaven, she..."
After Zuo Chongming heard this, he asked puzzledly: "Why is there no West among the four emperors?"
"Because Lingshan Bliss is known as the far west, so it was staggered to avoid suspicion."
Longzu shrugged and explained calmly: "Gouchen Shanggong, the emperor of the Great Emperor, is in charge of war. He can be understood as the God of War and the God of Martial Arts."
Zuo Chongming asked: "Where did you go last time?"
"Nantianmen."
Longzu said: "Because Nantianmen is the passage between heaven and the world, and those who ascended in ancient times all entered heaven through Nantianmen."
"The more famous buildings in Heaven are the Thirty-Three Heavenly Palace, the Seventy-two Treasure Palace, the Four Imperial Palaces, etc..."
Having said this, he noticed that Zuo Chongming seemed to be deep in thought and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Zuo Chongming asked in a deep voice: "Buddhism and Heaven are in a cooperative relationship, right?"
Long Ancestor said without knowing why: "It's almost the same, but Heaven as a whole is stronger than Buddhism, so Buddhism often has to cooperate."
"To give an example that everyone knows, in the underworld, Lord Yama of the Ten Capitals is responsible for reincarnation and so on, while Ksitigarbha is responsible for guarding hell."
"Where is the underworld?"
"Um, the underworld is in... the underworld? What's wrong?"
"I just suddenly had a guess."
"Do you still remember what I told you about the game "Homeward Bound" created by the ancient alien tribe?"
"What's wrong?"
"Since the source world excludes outsiders, how did the ancient alien races sneak in?"
"What I mean is, how did the ancient alien race bypass the rejection of the Source World and integrate into the Source World as a player?"
"You mean...the underworld?"
"It's not impossible."
"The power and responsibility of the underworld is reincarnation. Don't you think this is similar to the way players are born?"
"But there's a problem that doesn't make sense."
"After the player creates the character, he becomes an adult directly. However, reincarnation requires the mother to be pregnant for ten months..."
"No, no, no, there is no conflict."
"Hypothesis, let's make a hypothesis."
"Assuming that the source world determines the identity of ancient alien races based on their souls and then rejects them, then the rest can be explained."
"The ancient aliens used the underworld to wash away the strange labels on their bodies, such as clearing their memories and turning them into a blank sheet of paper... This bypasses the judgment of the source world."
"Then, they only need to use the power of technology, such as cloning technology to create a physical body, and then stuff the soul into it..."
"hiss……"
Long Zu's eyes widened with disbelief written all over his face.
It wasn't that he didn't believe Zuo Chongming, but he didn't expect this guy's mind to be so big.
After a long time, he finally came to his senses and said with a wry smile: "Unfortunately, I don't know where the underworld is, and we can't verify it."
"I just don't know now."
Zuo Chongming frowned and whispered: "If you are lucky, you may be able to find relevant information from the ruins of Heaven..."
