The Heaven-shattering: Starting from the Ancient Times

Chapter 30 Incense is poisonous
Although the two human emperors seem to have returned, they actually have huge flaws.

In the world, it is like an illegal household. Once it loses the shield of the power of faith, it will be destroyed by the world.

"Are the two returning Human Emperors our former selves, or special beings derived from faith?" Chen Zhao was a little confused.

This time, the two human emperors returned with the help of the power of faith.

There are also the imperial laws in the two people's ancient imperial weapons, plus the ancestral imprints and life fragments contained in the blood of their descendants.

Jiang Taixu and Ji Zi of later generations returned with the help of the power of faith, without any restrictions from heaven or earth.

"Is it because the two Human Emperors are creatures of the Imperial Realm that they were unable to return completely?" This thought came to Chen Zhao's mind.

There is a huge difference between emperors and non-emperors, and the life levels of the two are vastly different.

Heaven and earth will not allow the former powerful emperor to return.

Chen Zhao was not discouraged by this, as this was just an attempt for him.

Although the two Human Emperors have not returned completely due to the limitations of heaven and earth, they can be considered to have come back from the dead.

They have also received the blessing of the faith of all living beings. As long as the incense is burning and the faith is not extinguished, the two can exist in this form for a long time.

The power of faith is very strange. It is a kind of spiritual power. As time goes by, faith will eventually fade.

This is also the reason why Chen Zhao established temples in various places to collect faiths.

This era was not long after the two human emperors passed away. The two great human emperors' Taoist lineages were also educating the world, and the basic chapters of the two ancient scriptures of Taiyin and Taiyang were widely circulated.

Therefore, this era was the time when people’s faith in the two human emperors was at its peak.

If time goes by and no miracles appear for too long, no matter how great your achievements are, they will be erased by time and all living beings will forget you.

Just like in later generations, if it weren’t for the coming of the dark turmoil, who would think of the Human Emperor in the face of the crisis of death.

I don’t know what the two Human Emperors said to each other, but the two princes left with frustrated looks on their faces.

When Taiyin Renhuang saw Chen Zhao in deep thought, he said, "Daoyou, my current state is very strange. I can hear the calls and prayers of all living beings. But the thoughts of all living beings are eroding my true spirit all the time."

"I also heard the call of all living beings. It turns out that the power of faith has the power to transform decay."

“But our relationship with all living beings is also relative. We have to pay for what we get.” The Sun Saint Emperor said with emotion.

"This reminds me of a special existence recorded in an ancient book." Taiyin Human Emperor recalled.

"It is recorded in the classics that in a distant era, there were tribes and nations that worshipped spirits devoutly. While the spirits accepted the worship, they also protected all living beings."

“I didn’t expect that the records in this book are true. Our current state is a bit similar to offering sacrifices to spirits.”

After hearing the stories of the two human emperors, Chen Zhao had an epiphany.

The true spirit is constantly eroded by the thoughts of all living beings.

The power of faith comes from all living beings, and all living beings are not individual individuals.

The power of faith that comes from millions of lives has the power to transform decay.

But it is extremely complex, and contains the thoughts of living beings.

This is probably what was meant by "incense is poisonous" in previous lives.

If we cannot resist the thoughts of these living beings, our true spirits will be eroded and we will become puppets controlled by the thoughts of living beings. "Although the thoughts of living beings are eroding our true spirits all the time, with our strength, we can easily resist this erosion." said the Sun Saint Emperor.

As emperors, it is extremely difficult for all living beings to erode their true spirits.

"We have accepted the faith of all living beings. If they are in trouble in the future, we will need to protect them, otherwise great terror will occur." Taiyin Human Emperor said in a complicated tone.

"It is our wish to protect all living beings. It is also a great blessing to exist in this form."

There were complex looks in the eyes of both men. They rose to power in an era when the human race was weak, and have been protecting the human race all their lives.

It can be said to be a great blessing to be able to come back after death and continue to protect the human race in a special form.

Chen Zhao said with emotion: "If I am strong enough, I can help you two Taoist friends break the shackles of heaven and earth and walk in the world."

"There is no need to do this, fellow Daoist. Since you helped us return, I owe you a great debt of gratitude. Why do you have to do this?" Taiyin Human Emperor waved his hand.

"We can come back after death, and staying in our homeland to protect the human race is the best outcome. After all, we owe you." The Sun Saint Emperor echoed.

Chen Zhao did not mention this matter again, but instead asked: "I wonder if you two Taoist friends can tell me about the Immortal Emperor in the past?"

As expected, as Chen Zhao mentioned the Immortal Emperor, the faces of the two Human Emperors turned livid, but eventually they became relieved and calm.

"The Immortal Emperor is extremely powerful. I didn't expect him to be hiding behind the scenes. At that time, the road to immortality was opened, and a Forbidden Zone Supreme who was about to die was born. I followed him in, and was ambushed on the road to immortality."

“Even if I lived to the third life, I still had to fight a great war and die in my old age.” Taiyin Emperor sighed.

"The Immortal Emperor was as powerful as me at that time. Now that so much time has passed, he may have made a new breakthrough."

At this point, the Holy Emperor of the Sun said, "I spent my later years transforming to guard against the Immortal Emperor, and even deployed many methods, but he still destroyed my transformation."

"The Immortal Emperor is not as strong as Friend Taiyin said. It may be because he was severely injured by Friend Taiyin."

Chen Zhao nodded and said, "According to the clues I have been following, the Immortal Emperor has embarked on a path of bathing in the blood of other emperors."

“Bathing in the royal blood? Using the great path of others to cleanse your own essence and transform yourself, this is a road of no return, and will eventually backfire.”

"If it is true as you said, the Immortal Emperor is probably undergoing a transformation after bathing in the royal blood of me and fellow Daoist Sun," said Taiyin Human Emperor.

"I also looked for the trace of the Immortal Emperor, but I didn't find it in the end." Chen Zhao said with some disappointment.

If he could find the Immortal Emperor who had achieved Nirvana, this hidden danger could be eliminated in advance.

"The Immortal Emperor is extremely cautious. He will only take action when you are in your old age and are sure of victory. So he will only show up when you are in your old age." The Holy Emperor of the Sun reminded.

"Fellow Daoist, your Chaos Body has achieved enlightenment. I'm afraid your life span will be very long, which is enough for you to find the path to transformation."

His and Taiyin Human Emperor's goal was to transform into a chaotic body, but he didn't expect that the chaotic body of the past would appear in front of him.

"By the way, fellow Daoist, I went to Beidou in the past to search for the remaining traces of the chaotic body from the mythological era, and I have a guess." Taiyin Human Emperor said.

"That means the former Chaos Body is still alive and may have gone into seclusion."

When the Taiyin Emperor narrated this incident, even the Sun Saint Emperor was a little surprised.

But Chen Zhao already knew about this.
