Chapter 212 The Reincarnation of the Five Elements Dharma Body and the Innate Deities (Please Subscribe)
"The Five Emperors of the Human Race!"

Upon hearing Li Xuanyang's words, Fuxi and Hongyun suddenly felt a glimmer of inspiration arise from the darkness, and even the human race's inherent fortune within them was drawn out.

"May I ask, fellow Daoist, what are the Five Emperors?" Fuxi asked Li Xuanyang in a deep voice, his expression hardening.

"The Five Emperors were born from the destiny of the human race, corresponding to the five elements and five directions of the heavens, and were the foundation for the great prosperity of the human race. They can also be called the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors!" Li Xuanyang gradually told Fuxi and Hongyun many details about the Five Emperors.

If the birth of the Three Sovereigns (Heaven, Earth, and Man) marked the beginning of the great rise of the human race, then the birth of the Five Emperors was the foundation for that great rise.

This is precisely how we can deal with the issue of transforming humanity into the way of all living beings in the primordial world.

This time, Xuanyuan used the aura of the Heavenly Dao as a guide to gather the fortune of all living beings in the primordial world, which is naturally stronger than the fortune of the human race and is in accordance with the will of Heaven.

Humanity can be transformed into the way of all living beings in the primordial world.

However, if the Five Emperors are established, thus occupying the last part of humanity, then not only can we avoid being eroded and assimilated by the fortune of all living beings in the primordial world, but we can also make the human race more prosperous and its fortune stronger. We can even turn around and use the fortune of the human race to suppress the fortune of all living beings in the primordial world.

Besides this, Li Xuanyang had other plans to ensure that the fate of humanity and the human way would not be lost.

"The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors!"

"When the Three Sovereigns return to their positions, the Five Emperors shall emerge!"

Upon hearing this, Fuxi's face gradually lit up with joy. He said to Li Xuanyang, "No wonder you invited us to come to the Xuanhuang Realm to discuss things. Otherwise, once these words were spoken, they would surely cause signs of human destiny to appear. At the same time, the matter of the Five Emperors would probably stir up many troubles again."

Although there are only five Holy Emperors under the rule of humanity, the Five Emperors are not considered Holy Emperors.

However, the Five Emperors are ultimately related to the Holy Emperor's position. Once the signs appear, the Five Emperors will be born, which will inevitably lead to many troubles. The Xuanhuang Realm can not only isolate the secrets of heaven, but also isolate the perception of human destiny. Even Xuanyuan, as the Human Emperor, cannot sense the matter of the Five Emperors.

"Fellow Daoist, do you intend to have Fellow Daoist Chunyang reincarnate as one of the Five Emperors?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hongyun looked thoughtful. “According to what you said, the Five Emperors correspond to the Five Elements and Five Directions of the Heavenly Cycle. The element of the South is fire, which is similar to the Pure Yang Daoist technique of Fellow Daoist Chunyang.”

The Pure Yang Daoist possesses pure Yang Daoist techniques, which are extremely Yang and pure. If he were to become one of the Five Emperors, it would be barely acceptable.

“Fellow Daoist Chunyang is not suitable to be reincarnated as one of the Five Emperors.” Upon hearing Hongyun’s words, Li Xuanyang shook his head and said, “Fellow Daoist Chunyang’s Pure Yang Daoist practice emphasizes the word ‘pure,’ which can be described as the purest and most extreme.”

"It would be inappropriate for him to be forced to become one of the Five Emperors."

The Five Emperors differed from the Three Sovereigns. Ideally, their spiritual cultivation and supernatural powers should correspond to the numbers of the Five Elements and Five Directions in the universe. Only when the Five Emperors came together could they unleash the profound power of the Holy Emperor's position.

"In this way, a group of fallen innate gods and demons and quasi-saints who have been reincarnated as true spirits have unexpectedly gained an opportunity." Hearing Li Xuanyang's words, Hongyun couldn't help but reveal a hint of regret in his tone.

Although the Five Emperors were not the Holy Emperors, they still occupied a part of the human realm, and could be considered as each occupying a portion of the Holy Emperor's position. There was something mysterious about this, which can be considered as an opportunity.

Li Xuanyang smiled without saying anything, and did not reveal anything about the reincarnation of the Five Emperors' true spirits. Instead, he solemnly instructed Fuxi and Hongyun, "I ask you two fellow Daoists to continue to activate the human destiny after you return, so as to conceal the secrets of heaven."

"Before the Five Emperors returned to their positions, they must not be noticed by outsiders."

"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist Hongyun and I can continue to suppress the aura of the Heavenly Dao and the fortune of all living beings in the primordial world, thereby inducing the fortune of the human Dao!" As he spoke, Fuxi looked deeply at Li Xuanyang, and in his heart he had a vague guess about the matter of the Five Emperors, which corresponded to the Five Elements and Five Directions of the Zhou Tian, ​​and could also prevent the recurrence of the Xuanyuan incident.

Since Li Xuanyang didn't say anything, Fuxi didn't press him further.

Then, the three discussed the matters of humanity and the destiny of all living beings in the primordial world before leaving the Xuanhuang Realm.

Just as they left the Xuanhuang Realm, three beams of starlight flew over and landed in the palms of Li Xuanyang, Fuxi, and Hongyun.

"Is this the jade talisman sent by Fellow Daoist Zilian?" Hongyun recognized it at a glance. The starlight contained on this jade talisman was the Zhou Tian Xing Chen Divine Light of Daoist Zilian, one of Li Xuanyang's three corpses of good and evil.

"Could something have happened in Heaven again?"

As they spoke, the three of them channeled their primordial spirits into the jade talisman and couldn't help but show expressions of sudden realization.

"Haotian and Yaochi invite all the saints and holy emperors to the Heavenly Court in three hundred years to discuss matters!" After saying this, a strange light flashed in Li Xuanyang's eyes, and he said, "Could it be that the two of them have already made up their minds and plan to reincarnate and start anew?"

Upon hearing Li Xuanyang's words, Fuxi and Hongyun were taken aback at first, but then, thinking of Haotian and Yaochi's injuries, they nodded and said, "Reincarnation and cultivation again is indeed a solution."

“In that case, fellow Daoists, we will meet again in the Heavenly Court.” Li Xuanyang’s divine light subsided, and he put away the thirty-six worlds. He then waved his hand and sent a jade talisman to the Antarctic Immortal, instructing him to return to Xuanyang Mountain and wait for him.

Li Xuanyang then bid farewell to Fuxi and Hongyun, and with a flash of golden light beneath his feet, he headed towards the Netherworld.

Watching Li Xuanyang disappear into the golden cloud, Hongyun murmured to himself, "I wonder how Fellow Daoist Xuanyang plans to decide on the person to be chosen for this matter?"

Hearing Hongyun's words, Fuxi smiled without saying a word, becoming even more certain of his guess. He couldn't help but smile and say to Hongyun, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to overthink it. I'm sure Fellow Daoist Xuanyang has his own plans."

"That makes sense." Hongyun nodded, and together with Fuxi, they rode the clouds toward the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens.

Upon arriving at the Netherworld, Li Xuanyang immediately felt that it was very different from before. Everywhere was filled with the laws of reincarnation and the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, as if they were within reach. It was completely different from the original Netherworld.

"This is the mystery of the Chaos Reincarnation Disc!" Li Xuanyang's heart stirred, and the laws of the Great Dao of Space surged out around him, concealing his body. Only then did he step in front of the Bridge of Helplessness and examine the Land of Reincarnation.

The next moment, Li Xuanyang's eyes flashed with golden light, and he could vaguely see a huge Chaos Reincarnation Disc, hanging high in the center of the Reincarnation Land, radiating dazzling light.

Connected to the entire Netherworld, it has transformed into six enormous portals, through which countless souls are entering to be reincarnated.

This Chaos Reincarnation Rebirth Disc is different from the one that appeared earlier. It is not a complete Chaos Spiritual Treasure, but is composed of fragments of the Chaos Reincarnation Rebirth Disc. Each fragment is filled with the power of the Six Paths and the aura of the primordial spirit and magic power of the wielder.

"He wields a certain path, yet his abilities are extraordinary." Li Xuanyang nodded slightly and stepped onto the Bridge of Helplessness. The many ghost messengers and souls he encountered along the way seemed to ignore him completely, without noticing him at all. Even Meng Po was blinded by the laws of the Great Dao of Space and did not notice Li Xuanyang.

Upon arriving at the center of the Land of Reincarnation, beneath the Chaos Reincarnation Disc, they found the Black Lotus Daoist already waiting for them.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist!" Upon seeing Li Xuanyang arrive, the Black Lotus Daoist couldn't help but smile, cupping his hands in greeting and saying, "Fellow Daoist's spatial Dao Laws are becoming increasingly profound and unpredictable."

"Hehe, I would like to ask for your help this time!" Li Xuanyang chuckled and waved his hand to take out the true spirit of Chunyang Daoist, the Five Elements Flag of the Primordial Era, and the Five Elements Array Diagram of the Primordial Era, and placed them in front of Black Lotus Daoist.

"The true spirit of Fellow Daoist Chunyang, as well as the Five Primordial Banners and the Five Primordial Elements Array Diagram!" Upon seeing the Five Primordial Banners and the Five Primordial Elements Array Diagram, Daoist Black Lotus was clearly taken aback.

Black Lotus Daoist had long known about the reincarnation of Chunyang Daoist's true spirit, but the Five Innate Banners and the Five Innate Elements Array Diagram!

"Why does Fellow Daoist need to use the Primordial Five Directions Flags and the Primordial Five Elements Array Diagram to assist Fellow Daoist Chunyang's true spirit in reincarnation?"

Although the Five Primordial Flags and the Five Primordial Elements Array Diagram are first-class innate spiritual treasures, they are not supreme treasures of reincarnation, nor are they the Daoist's tools for attaining enlightenment. Why should they be included in the cycle of reincarnation?

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to ask further about this matter!" Li Xuanyang merely shook his head slightly at Black Lotus Daoist's question, neither speaking openly nor revealing the matter of the Five Emperors.

The Five Emperors refer to the five emperors of the human race, and also correspond to the five elements and five directions of the universe, which perfectly match the number of the five primordial flags and the five Dharma bodies.

It allows the true spirit of the Five Elements Dharma Body to reincarnate as the Five Emperors of the Human Race. This not only enables them to deal with matters concerning the fate of Xuanyuan and all living beings in the prehistoric world, but also allows them to enhance the power of the Five Elements Dharma Body by leveraging the Holy Emperor's position and the fate of humanity.

Upon hearing this, the Black Lotus Daoist glanced thoughtfully at the Innate Five Directions Flag and the Innate Five Elements Array Diagram. Suddenly, a flash of light appeared around him, revealing the Three Flowers of the Primordial Spirit. Above a half-acre-sized auspicious cloud, the Innate Spiritual Treasures, the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen, hung high.

"Open!" Suddenly, the Black Lotus Daoist pointed at the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen, from which two beams of light emerged and fell onto the fragments of the Human Realm, opening a portal out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, the Black Lotus Taoist pointed at the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen again, drawing out two beams of spiritual light that enveloped the Pure Yang Taoist's true spirit, the Innate Five Elements Flag, and the Innate Five Elements Array Diagram, before sending them into the portal.

At this moment, Li Xuanyang also released a strand of human destiny, which fell into the Innate Five Elements Flag and the Innate Five Elements Array Diagram, merging with them.

Fuxi and Hongyun, who had just returned to the Fire Cloud Cave in the Thirty-Three Outer Heavens, seemed to have sensed the changes in the human world.

"Fellow Daoist, draw upon the Dao of Humanity and the Qi of Humanity!" Fuxi said to Hongyun, immediately drawing upon the Dao of Humanity and the Qi of Humanity to descend upon the Five Primordial Banners and the Five Primordial Elements Diagram.

"Alright!" A hint of confusion flashed in Hongyun's eyes, but she still activated the human realm and the human destiny, assisting the true spirit of Chunyang Daoist and the innate five-directional flags and the innate five-element array diagram to reincarnate.

The next moment, the Five Elements Flags and Five Elements Array Diagram in the portal suddenly separated from the true spirit of the Pure Yang Daoist, transforming into five true spirits. Enveloped by the luck of the human realm, they fell into the cycle of reincarnation and disappeared.

"What is this, fellow Daoist?" Upon seeing the five true spirits formed from the Five Primordial Banners and the Five Primordial Elements Array, Black Lotus Daoist's eyes flashed with surprise, and he subconsciously asked Li Xuanyang.

Li Xuanyang shook his head slightly again, glanced at the void, and said to the Black Lotus Daoist, "This matter cannot be said openly. It is good that you understand."

Although the Black Lotus Taoist is one of Li Xuanyang's three self-corpses of good and evil, they are originally one, so there is naturally no need to hide anything from him.

However, since it concerns the Five Emperors, revealing it would inevitably reveal heavenly secrets, which would be inappropriate. "If Lady Pingxin and Meng Po ask later, you can simply say that you are the reincarnation of the true spirit of Fellow Daoist Chunyang. There's no need to mention the Five Primordial Banners and the Five Primordial Elements Array Diagram." After saying this, Li Xuanyang glanced towards the Bridge of Helplessness, then a golden cloud flashed beneath his feet, directly breaking through the space of the Netherworld and leaving, not intending to meet Lady Pingxin and Meng Po.

However, this time, opening the reincarnation channel of the human realm and sending the true spirit of the Pure Yang Daoist and the true spirit of the Five Elements Dharma Body to reincarnate naturally caused quite a stir, which was noticed by Lady Pingxin and Meng Po as something unusual.

"Could it be Fellow Daoist Xuan Yang who has arrived?" A moment later, a voice faintly came from behind.

"Your Majesty need not worry. Fellow Daoist Xuan Yang has come here only on the orders of the Sage of Shangqing to send Fellow Daoist Chun Yang's true spirit to reincarnation," the Black Lotus Daoist said, speaking in the direction from which the voice came.

When Meng Po on the Bridge of Helplessness heard the name of the Pure Yang Daoist, she couldn't help but realize, "So he is the reincarnation of the Pure Yang Daoist!"

Regarding the reincarnation of the Pure Yang Daoist, Li Xuanyang had already discussed it with Nuwa when he sent Fuxi's true spirit to be reincarnated, so there was no need to say more.

At this moment, deep within the eighteenth level of hell, the ancestral witches Zhurong and Gonggong, with extremely solemn expressions, coldly asked the Taoist sitting opposite them, "Last time you shattered the land of reincarnation and seized the origin of reincarnation, we have not yet settled accounts with you."

"Now you dare to show yourself in the eighteenth level of hell? Do you really think that we, the Ancestral Witches, cannot do anything to you?"

Upon hearing Zhu Rong's words, Ji Du was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said to Zhu Rong and Gong Gong, "In the previous Battle of Zhuolu, the Jiuli tribe was defeated, and the great shaman Chi You and many other shamans died. Are you two ancestral shamans willing to accept this?"

"Hmph, just say what you have to say, there's no need to mention the Nine Li!" Gonggong roared, his body radiating a murderous aura as he stared intently at Jidu.

"Very well, have you two ancestral witches ever heard that within the universe there are five immortals: Heaven, Earth, God, Man, and Ghost; and five insects: Snake, Scaled, Hairy, Feathered, and Insect?" Upon hearing Gonggong's words, Jidu asked Zhurong and Gonggong as if he had something in mind.

"Are you trying to say that we, the Wu tribe, are the leaders of the snipes?" Upon hearing this, Gonggong couldn't help but mock Jidu.

Li Xuanyang had discussed the matter of the Five Insects of Zhou Tian with Houtu in the past, and Houtu had even told the ancestral witches that the witch clan was the leader of the Insects.

Therefore, this matter was not a secret among the Wu tribe.

"The leader of the snails?" Thinking of the origins of the Wu tribe, Jidu chuckled and said, "The ancestral witch's words are not wrong."

Jidu did not argue with Gonggong about this matter, but continued to say to him: "What I want to tell you two ancestral witches is about the Five Immortals of the Heavenly Realm, namely the Heavenly Immortal, the Earthly Immortal, the Divine Immortal, the Human Immortal, and the Ghost Immortal."

"The ghost messengers in the underworld today can be considered ghost immortals!"

"What exactly do you want to say, fellow Daoist?" Gonggong's voice grew colder and colder, as if he were about to kill Jidu on the spot if they disagreed.

“Ancestral Witch, do not be hasty.” Jidu said slowly and calmly, “Among the Five Immortals of the Zhou Dynasty, there is still a missing immortal who has not yet truly appeared. The Ancestral Witch and the other witch clans can fill the gap.”

Before Zhu Rong and Gong Gong could speak, Ji Du continued, "The Wu tribe is a descendant of Pangu, born with the fortune of heaven and earth. They can become gods and coexist with the Dao, thus replacing one of the Five Immortals of the Zhou Dynasty and occupying a share of the fortune."

"Don't think that we, the Wu tribe, are indifferent to the affairs of the primordial world." Hearing Jidu's words, Zhurong sneered and said, "Immortals are appointed by the Heavenly Court to become one of the Five Immortals of the Zhou Dynasty. How can they be replaced?"

"Besides, my Wu clan is the leader of the snipes, why should we transform into gods and be subject to the constraints of the Heavenly Court?"

"Haha, Ancestral Witches, you may not know this, but Haotian and Yaochi have been severely injured by you Ancestral Witches and are about to reincarnate to rebuild their lives. This is an opportunity for the Ancestral Witches and the Witch Clan. Moreover, the Heavenly Court cannot restrain the gods." Jidu laughed and told them about Haotian and Yaochi's plans to reincarnate to rebuild their lives, causing Zhurong and Gonggong to frown slightly.

Once Haotian and Yaochi regain their supernatural powers, they will surely fight the Wu Clan relentlessly.

Seeing the expressions of Zhurong and Gonggong, Jidu couldn't help but smile and said, "You two ancestral witches, please don't joke. The human race is now the leader of the snipes, not the witch race!"

"Deities not only coexist with the Dao, but can also comprehend the laws of Heaven and receive the favor of the heavens and earth. They can even cultivate themselves using the merits and thoughts of humans and all living beings in the primordial world."

"The power of merit and good deeds!" Zhu Rong's expression changed slightly, and he stared intently at Ji Du, asking, "What is your relationship with the two Western Saints?"

Throughout the entire primordial world, only the cultivation methods of the Two Sages of the West and the Western Religion are related to merit and the power of thought.

"Hehe, Ancestral Witch, there's no need to overthink it. The gods cultivate through the power of merit and thought, which is an innate supernatural ability, not a method of cultivation, and has nothing to do with the two Western Saints."

At this point, Jidu looked at Zhurong and Gonggong and said, "The two ancestral witches were born from the essence of Pangu's blood and can be transformed into innate deities, in harmony with the great laws they each govern."

"Even if they cannot attain sainthood by then, they can each wield a great law, making their cultivation and supernatural powers far surpass what they have now."

"The Wu Clan can also return to the primordial world and take charge of the path of the gods. Wouldn't that be far better than staying in the Netherworld?"

"Whether it's occupying the fortune of one of the Five Celestial Immortals, or the innate deities, or the matter of cultivating merit and spiritual power, it all seems to be for the benefit of my Wu clan!" Gonggong frowned and asked Jidu, "I wonder why you do this?"

"Ancestral Witch, there's no need to ask further. I have my own plans!" Jidu chuckled, then a flash of divine light appeared around him, and he gradually disappeared, leaving only a wisp of voice behind.

"With the emergence of gods, the primordial world will surely become more perfect, and all things in the universe will naturally have yin and yang..."

“There is yin and yang!” Zhu Rong and Gong Gong frowned, wondering what Ji Du meant by his words.

"This matter is of great importance; we should discuss it further before making a decision!"

Zhu Rong and Gong Gong had always been at odds, but when faced with this matter, they were surprisingly in agreement and planned to discuss it with Di Jiang, Xuan Ming, and Tian Wu before making a decision.

Upon returning to Xuan Yang Mountain, Li Xuan Yang descended on auspicious clouds and arrived at the palace gate, where he found the Antarctic Immortal already waiting for him.

"Disciple greets Master!" Recalling what Li Xuanyang had said earlier, the Antarctic Immortal felt slightly uneasy and bowed to Li Xuanyang.

"Get up!" Li Xuanyang nodded to the Antarctic Immortal, stepped into the palace, sat on the throne, and looked at the Antarctic Immortal below, smiling as he said, "Since I said I would take you under my wing, I will not go back on my word!"

"Would you be willing to become my disciple, the fourth disciple of the Xuan Yang Mountain lineage?"

Although the Antarctic Immortal was prepared for this, when Li Xuanyang actually said that he would be taken under his wing as a personal disciple, he was still shocked and bowed to Li Xuanyang with a face full of joy.

"This disciple, the Antarctic Immortal, is willing to become your disciple and will certainly not let you down!"

"Alright!" Li Xuanyang nodded, then waved his sleeve at the Antarctic Immortal, sending out a divine light that lifted him up. He said to him, "You have been cultivating under my tutelage for some time now. Have you decided which Daoist scripture you wish to cultivate?"

The Taoist scriptures and teachings within the Xuan Yang Mountain lineage are neither numerous nor few.

Among them, the most famous are Li Xuanyang's Chaotic Undying Body Technique and Tai Xuan Sword Scripture, as well as the Innate Xuan Yang True Scripture, and finally the Innate Five Elements True Scripture.

Regardless of which scripture or method it contains, all are considered profound and mysterious, possessing immense divine power.

"This disciple wishes to learn the Innate Profound Yang True Scripture!" Without any hesitation, the Antarctic Immortal chose the Innate Profound Yang True Scripture directly.

"Have you thought this through?" Li Xuanyang said with a smile to the Antarctic Immortal. "In terms of power, my Innate Profound Yang True Scripture is not as good as the Chaos Undying Body Technique, and in terms of attack and slaughter, it is not as good as the Tai Xuan Sword Scripture. Its only advantage is that it is all-encompassing. Even your senior brother Yun Zhongzi only chose to cultivate the Innate Yin Yang Two Elements Laws within it!"

"Could it be that you also intend to cultivate the innate Yin-Yang duality law?"

“This disciple is no match for Senior Brother Yun Zhongzi, therefore I only wish to cultivate the Innate Yin-Yang Method in the Innate Profound Yang True Scripture!” Antarctic Immortal said respectfully to Li Xuanyang.

In fact, the Old Man of the South Pole had considered many times which true scriptures and methods to practice.

The Chaos Undying Body needs no further explanation; without innate spiritual fire, it is impossible to cultivate. The Tai Xuan Sword Scripture is the path of sword cultivation. After considering all the options, only the Innate Profound Yang True Scripture and the Innate Five Elements True Scripture are the most suitable.

The Primordial Profound Yang True Scripture contains numerous laws and principles, encompassing everything, while the Primordial Five Elements True Scripture focuses on the laws of the Primordial Five Elements Great Dao. Both are supreme methods of cultivation.

The Primordial Mysterious Yang True Scripture contains the Primordial Yin-Yang Two-Element Law, which can be comprehended and cultivated with the help of the Primordial Two-Element Lamp.

If one chooses only to cultivate the innate Yin-Yang Law, one can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

In contrast, the Innate Five Elements True Scripture can also be comprehended and cultivated by using the Innate Five Directions Flags and the Innate Five Elements Array Diagram.

However, Li Xuanyang never bestowed the Five Innate Banners and the Five Innate Elements Array Diagram upon him, and even Kong Xuan never comprehended both of them at the same time.

Therefore, after much deliberation, the Antarctic Immortal concluded that the Innate Yin-Yang Method from the Innate Profound Yang True Scripture was the most suitable for him.

"Hehe, you are quite clever!" How could Li Xuanyang not understand the thoughts of the Antarctic Immortal? He chuckled and waved his hand, sending a beam of light into the Antarctic Immortal's brow. He then imparted to him the part of the Innate Profound Yang True Scripture that was related to cultivating the Innate Yin and Yang Laws.

"Thank you, teacher!" The Antarctic Immortal was overjoyed to feel the various methods within the primordial spirit and the various descriptions of the innate Yin-Yang laws. He bowed deeply to Li Xuanyang once again.

"Haha, stand up and speak." Li Xuanyang laughed loudly and began to explain to the Antarctic Immortal the cultivation methods of the Innate Profound Yang True Scripture and the Innate Two Elements Law, as well as his various insights.
