Da Zaojun

It turns out that when the dragon, tiger, ox, and horse descended to earth to do something great, they really meant it.

How did they all run so far?

Song Wuji was helpless, but as long as he sensed a place, he could take a step directly there; this was the wonderful use of [Embracing the Moon].

After scattering the zodiac animals, Song Wuji went to the Spirit Mansion in the Human Realm and took out all the treasures he had obtained.

Among the more important items are: a scroll of the Tao Te Ching, a furnace of creation, a scroll of the Lu Ban Classic, a set of golden needles for overcoming calamities, a medicine cabinet contaminated by plague, but also thirteen sacred medicines, a book of Earthly Fiend Transformations, a hair of the Great Sage, a cloak of chaos (actually the dog blanket of the Howling Celestial Dog), a plain-colored cloud-bound flag (one of the thirty-six plain-colored cloud-bound flags), a net, a mousetrap, a golden needle of the sun, a great sun emperor bell, some golden essence of the sun, and a Taiyin Guanghan Ice Soul Pearl.

In addition, there are all the items related to the Kitchen God, but they are all kept in the Kitchen God Temple in the Sun Palace in the heavens.

Abundant resources from the sun and moon, including local specialties such as mulberry branches, laurel branches, mulberries, and cassia fruits.

And the cinnabar, lead, mercury, sulfur, and other substances that were taken out of the Tushita Palace.

Among these treasures, the Plain Cloud Banner is a defensive treasure and can also be used to set up formations, but it is difficult to set up a single banner.

Only the Heavenly Furnace is suitable for suppressing the fate of humanity.

The rest are of no use.

Song Wuji then placed the Heavenly Creation Furnace into the Human Cauldron, signifying that the human would control the heavens, earth, mountains, and rivers.

Instantly, all the incense offerings and deities, as well as all the mountains, rivers, and earth spirits in the entire human realm, responded.

From then on, the Ren Ding was in charge of the incense offerings of the gods and the creation of heaven and earth.

At the same time, all the wishes accumulated before manifested and turned into many incense iron coins and incense copper coins.

As for the incense money, there were only a few pieces, and only one incense coin.

When Song Wuji touches the incense and money, it signifies the wish for a peaceful and prosperous nation after the restoration of the human realm, the casting of the human tripod, and his subsequent claim to be the "King of Han."

Thinking of this, Song Wuji combined the incense coin with a piece of solar gold essence extracted from the Golden Crow's Nest, which instantly transformed into a second treasure coin.

As for incense coins, silver coins, copper coins, and iron coins, they can be used to represent good fortune, especially copper coins, which are very common.

As for the creation of heaven and earth, this will also be reflected. The net of heaven and earth that was suppressed by the cauldron will gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and accumulate into a karmic position.

That's right, it's the position of occupation, the position of duty in all trades, that's the position of occupation.

To be precise, it is a position of humane work.

Human professions include official positions, but they are not limited to official positions. They also include occupations, the five elements of agriculture, the five crafts, and so on. Even those who make or sell tofu have corresponding positions and possess various abilities.

The cohesion of a profession requires the support of every professional; each corresponding ritual contributes to this cohesion.

In addition, there is also a portion of the incense-burning deities, or more accurately, the karmic positions within the [human-ghost] system, which are also gathered here.

Reshaping the system of humanistic roles is the true beginning of reshaping the human way.

Next came the Sun Emperor Bell and the Moon Guanghan Ice Soul Pearl, which Song Wuji also placed into the Human Cauldron.

These two treasures can locate the Jade Rabbit and Golden Crow in the heavens and bestow blessings upon the human realm. Needless to say, they also bring numerous benefits with the blessing of the sun and moon.

Although Song Wuji also wanted to keep it by his side for use, his primary purpose for now was to suppress the flow of fortune.

For example, Song Wuji didn't keep the Demon-Revealing Mirror and the Third-Grade Pure White Lotus with him, but instead left them in the core of Taiyin to prepare in advance. With the addition of the Sun Treasure and the Taiyin Treasure, the human realm was immediately shrouded in a net of heaven and earth, and the order of Yin and Yang was completely suppressed. Even at night, ghosts could hardly interfere with reality, and ghosts and gods could only use their magic through the net of heaven and earth.

The origin and power of the human path have only been strengthened in one step.

Sunlight can purify the world with the power of fire, and moonlight can cleanse it with the power of crystal.

Next comes the Tao Te Ching.

When this Tao Te Ching was put into the cauldron, it immediately supported the concept of "humanity". What is humanity? It is the way of virtue. Virtue comes before the way. Reverence for virtue and respect for the way strengthens the influence of hidden virtue, public virtue, morality, saintly virtue and blessings in the human world, and opens up the "merit system" in the human world.

Those who accomplish things that contribute to the growth of humanity will receive [human merit].

Seeing this change, Song Wuji was overjoyed: "The Five Virtues are the foundation of order. Virtue comes before law. Governing the world with virtue and ruling the country with law should eliminate chaos."

Seeing this change in the Tao Te Ching, Song Wuji also put the "Earthly Fiends Manual" containing the seventy-two transformation techniques into the Human Cauldron.

There was another change immediately, with the transformation of [Earthly Fiend Auspicious Restriction].

Every so often, a ferocious earthly beast will appear in the human realm. Defeating the earthly beast will complete a purification ritual of the earth, which will grant a large amount of treasures and fortune, and at the same time, the earthly network can be expanded.

The souls of the slain ferocious beasts will be imprisoned in the cauldron to assist people in cultivating the Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends.

[Lu Ban's Classic]...This is not suitable for use in a human cauldron. We should go to Ganzhou to find Lu Ban and ask him to build this wonder and teach his disciples.

The Great Sage's hair—the original Great Sage didn't have such a lofty image, but because of a poem, it became associated with the true Sage.

After thinking about it, Song Wuji decided not to put it into the cauldron, as none of the remaining items were suitable.

Among them, the net, upon closer inspection by Song Wuji, did not conform to the Heavenly Net; rather, it was a rare and extraordinary treasure governed by rules.

As long as you throw it into the water, something will definitely come out of the net—it could be a treasure chest, some ore, or even a demon...

As for the mousetrap, it really is a mousetrap. Anything with the image of a "mouse" is bound to get caught. It was purely used by the Tushita Palace to keep out mice. Of course, it could also be other things that have transformed into mice but are actually thieves trying to steal elixirs.

With this in mind, Song Wuji stopped adding anything to it to enhance the human race's foundation.

They simply divided the remaining items into smaller portions.

Then, he went to find Master Xu Jia.

"Master, do you have any ideas about saving the world?"

"I don't have any particular ideas. There are many ways to save the world. Nuwa patching up the sky was a way to save the world, Yi shooting down nine suns was also a way to save the world, and Yu controlling the floods was also a way to save the world."

"As long as we address the lesions and work together as one, we can still accomplish the task."

Song Wuji asked, "Does the True Man know that the Great Heavenly Venerable is the World-Destroying Demon God?"

Xu Jia waved his hand: "What can you do if you know, and what can you do if you don't? The world is already operating according to its own trajectory. At first, it wanted to destroy the world, but when it actually did, it didn't want to anymore and is now crying and shouting for salvation."

Master Xu Jia said, “Some things are the same whether you do them or not. The will of heaven and earth often fights with the left and right brains. Even if you save the world, it will not thank you. Instead, it will think it is justified and then betray you. Don’t take it too seriously. Just follow your own rhythm and first establish the orthodoxy of the human world.”
