The two armies and horses fought fiercely outside the city. After several battles, there were countless casualties.
However, these have nothing to do with Qi Yuan.
He is busy with something recently.
When he was still in Chaoge, he began to write three volumes of recipes, but deliberately left some blank spaces. It was not until now that he came to Xiqi that he felt that the time had come, so he planned to record the last volume of recipes.
The reason why Qi Yuan wrote these three volumes of recipes in the first place was just to try and see if he could gain some humanitarian merit.
There are two types of merit, namely, heavenly merit and human merit.
Those who make contributions to heaven and earth can obtain heavenly merits, and those who make contributions to humankind can obtain human merits.
At the beginning, Empress Nuwa received the immeasurable merits bestowed by heaven, and then she realized the Tao of Hunyuan, which lasted for thousands of calamities without weariness, was stained by cause and effect without being stained, lived the same life as heaven, and coexisted with Tao.
Taishang Taoist ancestor once used the power of great merit to refine a heavenly and earthly black and yellow exquisite pagoda, the most precious treasure of acquired merit. Once it is sacrificed, it will not be invaded by all laws and will be invincible.
The three emperors of the human race in Huoyundong also relied on their human merits to achieve the position of holy emperor, and they were able to suppress the destiny of the human race.
If it weren't for these few people who were intimidating the world and making the monster clan's powerful people not dare to act recklessly, it would have been impossible for the human clan to obtain the status of the protagonist of the world based on the apparent strength of the human clan.
In addition, there are many sages in the human race.
For example, Cangjie created writing, which allowed the human race to pass on their wisdom; drilling wood to make fire freed the human race from the Suiren clan, which used raw hair and drank blood; and the Chao clan, Zhenyi clan, Leizu clan, etc. who built wood as nests all had great merits for the human race.
, currently residing in the Sage Hall of Fire Cloud Palace, there is no catastrophe that threatens the human race, and he cannot escape easily.
In fact, the current human race is still in a stage of development and accumulation. When human luck accumulates to a certain level, it will be like a hundred flowers blooming, and many sages will be born.
It is too difficult to obtain the merits of the Heavenly Way, especially after the ancestor Hongjun and the Heavenly Way merged and completed the Heavenly Way, it is even more difficult to obtain the Heavenly Way merits.
Humanity merit is relatively easy. The so-called doing good deeds and accumulating merit means that as long as you do good deeds, you can accumulate some merit.
But for ordinary people, this method is too difficult.
In this life, even if a person does one good deed every day, he will only have 20,000 to 30,000 merits in his lifetime, and it is simply impossible to achieve the level of being inspired by God.
However, after death, one's merits and demerits will be shown in the Book of Life and Death, and the underworld will use this to determine how to reincarnate. Some people with sufficient merit may even be left in the underworld as errands.
Qi Yuan's purpose is to have an opportunity to obtain humane merit.
He has always spared no effort to teach people cooking skills and how to find more food sources in the wild. These things have invisibly promoted the development of the human race, and will naturally bring about humane merits.
However, due to the slow spread of the food, how many years will it take for everyone to be able to use the cooking skills he taught?
Qi Yuan was afraid that he would not be able to wait until that day, so he thought of a clever way, which was to write a book and establish an explanation.
Although he only wrote a few volumes of recipes and was not a classic theory to educate all living beings, the things recorded in these recipes can benefit everyone. As long as you are not a god and still need to eat, you can use it.
As he filled in the blank space at the end of the three volumes of recipes with a few new dishes, suddenly, auspicious clouds gathered in the sky, colorful, and there seemed to be a faint sound of thousands of people singing praises between heaven and earth, and the sky was empty.
A ball of black-yellow air descended and merged into Qi Yuan's body.
…………
Fire Cloud Cave, the secluded residence of the three emperors of the human race.
This is a cave world with no end in sight. A majestic and huge palace sits among the misty mountains.
In the main hall, there are three figures sitting, looking like mortals, without any powerful aura.
However, just when a strange change occurred in the sky and a group of humane virtues dropped out of thin air, the three people's bodies shook, and they opened their eyes at the same time, with divine light flashing in their eyes, looking far away in the direction of Xiqi who didn't know how far away.
"What happened? The fate of my human race has changed unexpectedly?"
Emperor Fuxi evolved the Innate Bagua and was the best at deducing it. He calculated it with his fingers, and his eyebrows suddenly showed a hint of joy. He smiled and said: "It's a good thing. There are descendants who have made merits for our human race and triggered the induction of heaven, and this is how we have merit. Well, this time
Zi and the Suiren family are quite close."
This is true. Qi Yuan's actions were based on Suiren's achievements in drilling wood to make fire.
Therefore, the humanitarian merits he has gained are definitely not as many as those of the Suiren clan. However, these gains have almost made him crazy with joy.
Just when Qi Yuan was grinning stupidly, Jiang Ziya, who was reporting the battle situation to King Wu, shook his hand and almost scattered the bamboo slips on the ground.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the auspicious clouds gathering in the sky, just in time to see the black and yellow cloud of merit falling down, and he suddenly took a breath of cold air.
"Someone's virtues have actually declined. Is it possible that our human race will produce another sage?"
Nezha and Huang Tianhua, who were competing in the courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, were also shocked. They quickly stopped their weapons and looked up at the sky in the distance.
Ordinary mortals can only see the auspicious clouds and cannot see the scene of merit falling from the sky, but they are all accomplished practitioners, and unlike ordinary mortals, they can naturally detect these movements with their naked eyes.
Ever since the energy of merit entered his body, Qi Yuan felt warm all over his body, as if his whole body was as warm as when he returned to his mother's body.
However, this feeling was fleeting and disappeared quickly, but it also made him feel as if his body was much younger, although not a single wrinkle on his face was missing.
At the same time, there was a moment of clarity in the Lingtai. Some of the things that I didn’t understand during my previous cultivation were now suddenly clear to me. My own moral conduct suddenly improved a lot. Although my magic power has not deepened, as long as I reach the realm, do I still worry that my magic power cannot increase?
If we use an analogy, his original Dantian was the size of a bowl, which could only hold a bowl of water. Now, it has been replaced by a shotgun and has become the size of a bathtub. It can still be used for a mandarin duck bath.
Waiting for him to inject mana into it.
As long as he practices for a period of time, he can get rid of the past phenomenon of using up all his mana with just a few small spells.
Not long after, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and Jiang Ziya and others arrived here surrounded by King Wu Jifa.
Everyone walked in a hurry, and when they arrived, most of them were out of breath.
Qi Yuan knew very well that these people must have come because of some meritorious deed from heaven.
However, he was still polite and bowed down: "I have seen King Wu."
Ji Fa quickly turned sideways and helped him up, not daring to accept his courtesy.
"Sir, you are trying to offend me. How can I dare to accept your courtesy from you?"
Ji Fa's face turned red with excitement: "Since the Three Emperors retired to seclusion and the Five Emperors did not come out, no one in our human race has become a sage for hundreds of years. Now that your good deeds have triggered auspiciousness from the sky, it is really a blessing for our human race and the blessing of the common people in the world at dawn.
