Honghuang: I am Qitian and I want to fight for the throne

Chapter 260: Yunxiao is defeated and the evil spirit reappears
Seeing his confidants suffering severe blows one after another, Haotian was extremely angry.

however,
This matter is ultimately a battle for the fortune of incense, and the victory or defeat depends entirely on each party's ability and means.

No matter how angry he was, he couldn't bring himself to go to Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu to ask for an explanation.

It is even more impossible to run to the Taoist Ancestor and cry and complain.

In desperation, he had to suppress this hatred deep in his heart and secretly swore to regain his face in the future.

In fact,
Not only Haotian felt resentful, Yuanshi and Tongtian were also dissatisfied with Haotian.

Originally, the two sects were in a competitive relationship, and with the addition of the powerful Flower-Fruit Mountain, the open and secret struggles between them were chaotic enough.

Now the Heavenly Court has intervened again and is trying to snatch their blessings and fortune.

It would be strange if Yuanshi and Tongtian were happy about this.

But out of consideration for Daozu, although they were filled with anger, they still warned their disciples to be sure to exercise moderation when fighting.

Don't hit too hard. You can seriously injure the other person, but you must never kill anyone.

It is also because of this that although there are occasional frictions and conflicts between the Heavenly Court and the Chan and Jie sects, they have never led to large-scale bloody fighting.

The Three Pure Ones and Haotian were naturally aware of some of the attitudes and practices of Mount Huaguo, and they knew that this was an attempt to instigate disputes and conflicts among them.

However, faced with this situation, all parties chose to remain silent.

Haotian already knew this and had his own calculations involved.

As for the Three Pure Ones,

Because the current human race's imperial teacher comes from the Flower-Fruit Mountain, it is already somewhat untenable for them to intervene in the competition for incense, and it is naturally not a good time for them to jump out and cause trouble now.

Besides, even if they wanted to find fault, the disciples below were no match for Qi Tian's disciples.

Those are the four quasi-saints!

Moreover, he is extremely powerful and possesses top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

With such strength, no one in the entire prehistoric world, no matter whether it is other races, sects, or the three religions, can compete with Huaguoshan.

Naturally, he would not ask for trouble by provoking Huaguo Mountain.

Therefore, Zhuanxu, who was assisted by the disciples of Mount Huaguo, had smooth sailing and made rapid progress, and basically never encountered any major disasters.

In fact,
The disasters that the protagonists of the human race encountered most often occurred during the time of the Three Emperors.

The Five Emperors period was more of an era of gradual recuperation and steady rise.

The first emperor, Fuxi, resolved the imminent food shortage crisis of the human race. In addition, he created the Xiantian Bagua to resolve the test of natural disasters.

The second emperor of the earth, Shennong, searched for grains and completely solved the food problem for the human race. He also tasted hundreds of herbs and compiled the traditional medical classics, which solved the test of disease and disaster for the human race.

The last emperor of mankind, Xuanyuan, unified the human race and solved the problem of constant war and strife among the human race once and for all.

It can be said,
The merits and deeds of these three people have enabled the human race to gradually move from its initial ignorance and backwardness to today's prosperous and glorious era.

Therefore, the tests and difficulties faced by the next five emperors were much easier in comparison.

Its main purpose is to lead the human race towards continued strength and prosperity, and to further consolidate and condense the destiny of the entire human race.

Time flies by like a white horse.

Thousands of years passed, and the originally calm sea of ​​clouds above Chendu began to tremble frequently.

This is a sign that Zhuanxu is about to complete his merits.

Zhuanxu, who was aware of this, began to look for a suitable candidate for the next leader among the human race.

Regarding this matter, Sun Yuan and others had already received guidance from their master Qi Tian, ​​and they knew the name of the next co-leader very well.

then,

After some discussion, Jiang Linger once again pretended to display her supreme magical powers to conduct a deduction.

Then he told Zhuanxu the name of Emperor Ku that he had finally "calculated".

When Zhuanxu heard the name, he was stunned.

Because he had heard of this Emperor Ku.

He is also a descendant of Emperor Xuanyuan, but is slightly younger than him in generation. He is the great-great-grandson of one of the many wives of Emperor Xuanyuan.

At the beginning,

Xuanyuan was drugged and plotted against by Chiyou. After he completed his mission of taking care of his three thousand wives, all of them became pregnant and gave birth to many offspring.

After thousands of years of continuation, the human race is now all over the world with descendants of Xuanyuan.

Now, although Zhuanxu was somewhat surprised to hear that his master had calculated that his nephew would be the one to take over the position of co-leader.

But Zhuanxu firmly believed in Jiang Linger's deduction results.

After all, over the past thousand years, many difficult problems were deduced by Jiang Linger.

Therefore, Zhuanxu summoned Emperor Ku to his side and observed him carefully for several years.

It was discovered that he was indeed extremely intelligent, often saying surprising things, showing his extraordinary talent as a great sage.

In this way, after several years, when Zhuanxu's merits were fulfilled, he resolutely abdicated the throne of co-leader to Emperor Ku.

but,

Although Zhuanxu's merit was complete this time, the eight-clawed golden dragon of luck above Chendu failed to grow another claw.

Because his merits and virtues are far from those of the Three Emperors of Heaven, Earth and Man.

It was not enough to enable the golden dragon of luck to achieve the perfect nine-claw state.

This can also be seen when heaven and earth bestow merits.

Thirty percent of luck and merit only allowed Jiang Linger to advance from the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal to the peak of Daluo Golden Immortal.

As for Zhuanxu, who attained the royal way of the human race.

Although his strength has been improved to the level of a saint, it is still inferior to the Three Emperors.

The combat power of the Three Emperors is similar to that of the current Three Pure Ones and others who are in the middle stage of sainthood.

However, Zhuanxu only had the combat power of an early sage.

but,

Even so, it is very terrifying. It is equivalent to the human race having four saints.

If it weren't for the restrictions of Heaven on the Fire Cloud Cave, the human race would not even be afraid of saints.

He can be called the true overlord of heaven and earth.

When Zhuanxu returned to Huoyun Cave, Emperor Ku took over the position of co-leader.

Qi Tian, ​​sensing something, called out Yun Zhongzi who was in seclusion, and then asked him to go to Chendu to accept Emperor Ku as his disciple.

Be the second imperial teacher of the Five Emperors of the human race.

of course,

The Human Sect, the Orthodox Sect, and the Unorthodox Sect could not help but come here to fight for it.

Unfortunately, the three religions have now split up, and each is an enemy, and their hearts are fundamentally at odds with each other.

Under such circumstances, the outcome of the fight is no surprise at all.

The three religions were completely defeated and Huaguo Mountain won a great victory.

in fact,

Even if the three religions had not split, even with their combined strength and innate treasures they would still be no match for the people of Flower-Fruit Mountain.

After all, Kong Xuan also has the innate treasure Golden Cudgel, and Sun Yuan and Jin Peng also have the Karma Fire Red Lotus and the World-Destroying Black Lotus bestowed by Qi Tian, ​​whose defenses are no less than those of the innate treasures.

In addition, the three of them are quasi-saints, so Xuandu, Nanjixianweng and Duobao are no match for them at all.

As for the other disciples,

With Jiang Zi at the quasi-saint level, Xuan Ling and Jiang Linger at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, the three religions are no match for them.

Therefore,
The complete victory of Huaguoshan can be said to be expected.

Afterwards, under the guidance and assistance of Yun Zhongzi and the disciples of Zhonghuaguoshan, Emperor Ku's reputation among the human race rose rapidly, and he soon stabilized his position as co-leader.

Emperor Ku was a benevolent monarch.

During his reign, Emperor Ku was observant, knew how to appoint the right people to the right positions, followed the will of the people, always considered the interests of the human race, and ruled the country with benevolence.

It created a more powerful human race, a prosperous society, and people lived and worked in peace and contentment. The strength of the human race steadily increased, and its fortune also rose.

Thousands of years later,

Emperor Ku completed his merits and virtues, and after using the old tricks in Huaguo Mountain, he found out who would be the next leader.

尧！
After Emperor Ku abdicated the throne of common ruler to Yao, he himself attained the emperor's way of mankind and was promoted to the early stage of sainthood.

Retired to Huoyun Cave.

As for Yun Zhongzi, the imperial teacher, he was promoted to the peak of Daluo Jinxian just like Jiang Linger.

Yao is the third of the Five Emperors of the human race.

He is also the descendant of one of the 3,000 wives of Emperor Xuanyuan.

After thousands of years in office, he recalculated the four seasons under the guidance and assistance of Yunxiao, a disciple from Mount Huaguo who also defeated the three religions.

Unify the human calendar and set the seasons for farming.

Determine the vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumnal equinox, and winter solstice.

He also set up a drum for advice, allowing people all over the world to speak their mind, and set up a tree for slander, allowing people all over the world to attack his faults.

Finally, a system of etiquette was established.

It standardized the behavior of human beings and promoted the development of human civilization.

Finally, his merits were fulfilled, and he witnessed the royal way of the human race. He was pardoned by heaven and earth and also lived in seclusion in Huoyun Cave.

Yunxiao became the fourth Golden Immortal to reach the peak of Daluo in Mount Huaguo after Yun Zhongzi.

After Emperor Yao accomplished his mission, he abdicated the throne to Shun.

As for this competition for the position of Imperial Master, the Three Pure Ones did not come to compete, either because they knew that their disciples were no match for the Flower-Fruit Mountain or for some other reason.

Qiong Xiao became Shun's master without any difficulty.

Shun, whose surname was Yao and whose clan name was You Yu, was named Chonghua and whose courtesy name was Dujun.

They are also the descendants of Emperor Xuanyuan.

This person is very filial and kind. He is kind not only to his family, but also to his subordinates, government affairs, and the people.

At the same time, he vigorously promoted moral education and taught his subjects the "Five Classics" -

That is, father's righteousness, mother's kindness, brother's friendship, younger brother's respectfulness, and son's filial piety.

Advocate the way of dealing with the world of being straightforward but warm, tolerant but cautious, firm but not cruel, simple but not arrogant.

The number of evildoers among the human race has been greatly reduced, everything is reviving, and the cohesion of the human race has been improved to the extreme.

Shun reigned for thousands of years. Under Qiongxiao's instruction, he not only formulated laws for the human race, but also made major political reforms.

He appointed Qi as Situ to promote education; appointed Gao Yao as Shi to be in charge of criminal law; appointed Chui as Gonggong to be in charge of all craftsmen; appointed Yi as Yu to be in charge of mountains and forests; appointed Boyi as Zhizong to preside over ceremonies; appointed Kui as music official to be in charge of music and education; and appointed Long as Nayan to be responsible for issuing orders and collecting opinions.

It was also stipulated that performance appraisals should be conducted every three years, and promotion or dismissal would be decided based on the results of three appraisals. Through such rectification, the efficiency of the high-level officials of the human race would be improved.

Let the human race prosper further.

A thousand years later, Shun completed his merits and became the fourth emperor of the human race. He lived in seclusion in Huoyun Cave.

He assisted the imperial teacher Qiong Xiao and also achieved the level of Daluo Jinxian.

In this way, the Five Emperors of the Human Race successfully came to the last emperor——

Dayu!

After Shun abdicated the throne of co-leader to Dayu, the Three Pure Ones still did not come to compete for it. They just focused on preaching among the human race and competing with the Heavenly Court for incense.

Therefore, Qi Tian's disciple Bixiao successfully accepted Dayu as his disciple to teach and assist him.

Unlike the four emperors before him, Dayu established the first dynasty of the human race as soon as he took office.

Xia Dynasty!

Dayu was also the son of Gun, who was the grandson of Emperor Xuanyuan for many generations.

Before becoming the common ruler, he followed his father Gun to migrate to the Central Plains of Kyushu.

Towards the end of Emperor Shun's reign, floods broke out in the Nine Provinces and Central Plains, causing disasters and making the people suffer.

Emperor Shun ordered Gun to control the flood. Gun was ordered to control the flood and created the method of setting up river embankments to block the water and resolve the flood.

however,
Not long after Dayu became the common ruler and established the dynasty, the river embankment created by Gun was eventually submerged due to the increasing water level of the flood.

The human race's Kyushu region fell into even greater flooding.

Countless humans died and the land was filled with grief.

Seeing this situation,

After seeking advice from Bixiao, Dayu reviewed the reasons for his father Gun's failure in controlling the flood, then inspected the river, and passed by his home three times without entering.

Finally, summing up the lessons of his father's failure in flood control, he decided to reform the flood control methods, focusing on dredging rivers to control floods, taking advantage of the natural tendency of water to flow to lower places, and dredging rivers to return the floods to the East China Sea.

After confirming,

Dayu personally led the human cultivators to split the mountains and open up the rivers, dredge the blockages.

however,
Just when Dayu was excavating mountains and rivers, he encountered obstacles.

When the Huai River was being dredged, three ferocious-looking water monsters suddenly appeared.

The magical powers of these three water monsters are extremely strong, and they have all reached the peak realm of Daluo Jinxian!

However, Cangjie, who was at the quasi-sage level, was concentrating on suppressing a raging flood elsewhere and was unable to go along.

The human cultivators, who were at most in the middle stage of the Golden Immortal Realm, were no match for the three water monsters. Dayu and the human cultivators were defeated miserably, with heavy casualties.

Seeing that Dayu was about to die in the mouth of the water monster, at the critical moment, Sanxiao, who had been secretly following and protecting Dayu, appeared and stopped the three water monsters.

Especially Yunxiao, who possesses the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Hunyuan Golden Bowl, is full of confidence.

With a delicate cry, the Hunyuan Golden Bowl in her hand shone brightly and smashed towards the three water monsters.

However, something Yunxiao could not have imagined happened. The three water monsters each held an extremely high-grade innate spiritual treasure and blocked her Hunyuan Golden Bowl.

Although the power of these spiritual treasures is slightly inferior to Yunxiao's Hunyuan Golden Bowl, the three demons worked together, and after a fierce confrontation, Yunxiao gradually fell into a disadvantage.

finally,
The defeated Yunxiao had to retreat with Dayu and other injured human cultivators.

After all, Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao are only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and cannot help her kill the Three Water Monsters.

Huangshi Mountain.

Because the three religions had not taken action in recent times, Jin Peng returned to the underworld after Bixiao became the Emperor's Teacher.

Kong Xuan, Jiang Zi, Jiang Ling'er, Xuan Ling, Yun Zhongzi, and Huang Long all returned to Huaguo Mountain.

Only Sun Yuan stayed here just in case.

"Senior brother, it's not good!"

Sun Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain to gain enlightenment, suddenly opened his eyes and was shocked when he saw Yunxiao rushing towards Huangshi Mountain in a hurry.

His figure flashed and appeared in front of Yunxiao.

"Junior sister, what happened?"

Yunxiao calmed his breath and quickly recounted the story of the three water monsters blocking the way.

"Three water monsters? And they all have top-grade innate spiritual treasures?"

After listening to Yun Xiao's story, Sun Yuan's expression became a little serious, and he asked:
"Junior sister, can you see clearly where these three water monsters came from?"

"See clearly!"

Yunxiao nodded and replied, "One is a water ape, another is a fish, and the last one... is a double-winged dragon snake. It is extremely fast and hard to defend against. However..."

Having said this, Yunxiao suddenly paused, with a look of confusion and uncertainty on his face.

"But what? Did Junior Sister find anything?"

"Yeah!" Yunxiao nodded and took a deep breath:

"When I was fighting with that double-winged dragon snake, I vaguely sensed a faint demonic energy from it."

"Demon energy?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Yuan's eyes suddenly focused and he instantly became alert:
"Junior sister, are you sure it's demonic energy?"
