In the Heavens

In the prime minister's mansion, Shang Rong walked into a secret room after burning incense and taking a bath, lit a stick of special incense, and kowtowed to the statue.

The statue, which was originally a dead thing, suddenly opened its eyes and came alive directly. Such a weird scene would definitely scare many people outside, but Shang Rong is not surprised by it.

I saw Shang Rong kneeling in front of the statue, folded his hands together and bowed his head in salute:

"The disciple pays homage to the immortal elder."

"We haven't seen each other for eight hundred years, it's rare that you still remember me."

The statue said with a smile, as if it was an old friend that he hadn't seen for many years. There is also a mysterious force in the tone, which makes people can't help but want to get close.

This familiar feeling can't be forgotten even after eight hundred years. It was this mysterious man who made a deal with him eight hundred years ago, making him the prime minister of the great merchant.

Even with the help of the entire Da Shang, Shang Rong still failed to find out the origin of the mysterious person. After realizing the problem, Shang Rong cut off contact decisively.

I thought that the matter would end here, but I didn't expect that the mysterious person suddenly entrusted him with a dream a few days ago, asking him to fulfill the agreement of the year, and this was the scene of going to court during the day.

"Xianchang, the agreement made eight hundred years ago has been completed, do you think the transaction between us can end here?"

Shang Rong asked tentatively.

The origin of the mysterious person was too strange, even the monks from all walks of life in the court could not see any doubts, which made the great merchant's prime minister restless.

Now that the agreement is completed, Shang Rong just wants to get away quickly. Experience told him that if he was entangled with such a mysterious person who couldn't see the light, sooner or later he would pay the price.

The mysterious statue laughed and said: "Of course, the transaction between you and me 800 years ago has been completed, and now you and I owe each other nothing.

It's just that now I have a new proposal, maybe you can think about it, maybe we can cooperate again.

The big business is going to die! "

"The great merchant is about to perish!"

"The great merchant is about to perish!"

...

Shang Rong's mind was filled with the phrase "The great merchant is about to perish", and his whole body froze, and he couldn't help muttering: "No...it's possible!"

"It's not...impossible!"...

It's not that Shang Rong lost his composure. If this news gets out, most of them will probably have this expression.

The prosperous Shang Dynasty is about to perish. If it wasn't from the mouth of the mysterious person, Shang Rong would have thought it was a lunatic talking.

The normal collapse of a dynasty is due to internal corruption to the extreme, or the threat of foreign enemies. The two big businessmen have nothing to do with it.

After all, he is the prime minister of a country, and after a brief absence, Shang Rong quickly recovered.

"Dare to ask the Immortal Elder, my Great Merchant's national destiny is still in its peak state, so why is it in danger of being destroyed?"

Even though the predictions of the mysterious man have all come true in the past eight hundred years, Shang Rong still finds it hard to imagine that the news is true.

The current Great Shang Dynasty is not an ordinary secular court. It is blessed by the ancestral family of the human race, and there are countless people with supernatural powers working for it. It is the most prosperous era of the human race.

"Yes, Dashang's current strength is indeed not weak, and it has the support of the ancestral family of the human race and Jiejiao. Looking at the entire prehistoric world, Dashang is also a powerful force that can be counted.

But what if he was convicted of the crime? "

The mysterious man said with a sneer.

Hearing this appalling news, Shang Rong froze, and kept muttering:

"Guilt to God!"

"Guilt to God!"

...

Obviously, this is not aimless. Among the successive kings of the Great Shang Dynasty, there were many bold and bold ones.

For example: the Shang king named Wu Yi once fantasized about cutting down the sky with humans, trying to shoot the emperor of heaven and replace him, but the result was naturally miserable.

The death of a king still can't stop Da Shang's desire to die. Today, Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty had similar thoughts again, revealing his ambition more than once.

In the prehistoric world full of myths, no one dares not to take God's will as one thing. If the big merchants are guilty of the sky, no matter how prosperous they are, it will be futile.

Perhaps because he felt that the firepower was not enough, the mysterious man added again: "I have another message for you - the two holy places of the human race have both made the decision to abandon the Great Merchant, and the Human Revolution has already been activated.

If you want to be buried with the Shang Dynasty, you can report to Di Xin now, but it's hard to say whether he believes it or not. "

The last shot at the critical moment directly made Shang Rong lose his temper. It is true that the Great Merchant’s luck is at its peak, but it is based on the support of many parties.

If the Holy Land of the Human Race no longer supports the Shang Dynasty, then the booming Shang Dynasty will immediately go downhill, from prosperity to decline.

After all, after so many years of inheritance, the Shang Dynasty also accumulated countless contradictions, but they were covered up by the prosperous age.

Even though the recent generations of kings have made great efforts to govern and carried out reforms successively, they still have not changed the reality that the ruling class is going downhill.

Glancing at the mysterious man, Shang Rong's expression suddenly became dazed, and two voices kept ringing in his heart.

"Promise him, Da Shang is going to perish, and Di Xin doesn't trust you, so there's no point in being buried with him!"

"No, this mysterious person must have evil intentions. How could the great merchant perish so easily!"

The fierce inner struggle made Shang Rong's forehead break out in cold sweat, just like a mortal, as if his cultivation base no longer existed.

...

Similar scenes were constantly staged in front of many ministers and princes of the Shang Dynasty. All the weird phenomena and the ultimate contradictions point to the Great Shang Dynasty.

Some people resisted the temptation and continued to serve as loyal ministers of the big merchants, but more people still chose to fly separately in the face of disaster.

Da Shang, who seemed to be calm, has already fallen into the midst of wind and rain. It's just that Di Xin, who sits high in the royal court, knows nothing about this, and has no idea that the black hands targeting the big merchants have already acted.

On March 18th, Wang Luanyu left Fengcheng, and the hairpin tassels were reflected in the auspicious colors of Jingyan. Driving out of the south gate of Chaoge, every family burned incense and set fires, and every household decorated with colored carpets. Five thousand cavalry lead the way, accompanied by Fei Lian and E Lai, accompanied by civil and military officials from the Manchu Dynasty.

Go to the front of Nuwa Palace. Looking at the gorgeous main hall, Di Xin frowned, his mind was full of thoughts—wasting people and money.

In his opinion, it is completely unnecessary to build such a luxurious palace for the gods, and the gods will not come to live there, it is a waste of people's energy.

Especially seeing the pious expressions on the faces of all the princes and ministers made Di Xin feel even more upset. These guys in front of him didn't have such respect for him, but respected a statue so much.

The king left the chariot and strode up to the main hall, where incense was burned in the furnace, and civil and military attendants paid homage to him.

Just don't know what happened, a white light flashed into Di Xin's body, and Di Xin who opened his eyes again felt that he had changed the world.

The statue in front of him was no longer a statue, a delicate woman appeared in front of him, constantly teasing and tempting him.

Perhaps sensing something was wrong with Di Xin, the guard came to remind him: "Your Majesty, the incense burning is over!"

Waking up, Di Xin looked around. Where there was any beautiful woman, it was clearly a statue.

Under the strange circumstances, Di Xin immediately ordered: "Take the pen and ink, but only write a poem."

Ignoring the dissuasion of the officials, Di Xin picked up the pen, dipped it in the ink, walked to the wall, swiped the pen, and began to write a poem:

"The Fengluan treasure tent is very beautiful, full of exquisite makeup.

Ququ Yuanshan is flying emerald green; dancing sleeves reflect Xiashang.

Pear blossoms bring rain to compete for beauty; peony cages are full of smoke and make-up.

But if you are enchanting, you can move, and you can take back Changle to serve the king. "

The astonishing content directly frightened the officials, and before everyone could react, the sky suddenly dimmed, and there was a flash of lightning, thunder, and strong wind.

Immediately afterwards, the bustling Nuwa Palace disappeared in place, and Di Xin, who was in a daze, fainted to the ground. Not even a chance to make amends afterwards.

...

In Wa Palace, Empress Nuwa, who hadn't been angry for a long time, was already covered with frost.

At some point, the demon banner had already appeared in her hands, and immediately after, the fox demon in Xuanyuan Tomb received the holy order—to confuse the king's heart and destroy the great merchants.

Well, this is already restrained. If it hadn't been for the involvement of Fengshen Quanjie, Dashang and Jiejiao were tied together, in order to show mercy for the face of the leader of Tongtian, Di Xin would be dead at this moment.

The cause and effect of killing a human king is indeed not small, but it is not unbearable for a saint. What's more, it was Di Xin who forged karma first, and he deserved to die.

In fact, it was Nu Wa who had sensed that someone was plotting behind the scenes, and wanted to use her hand to open the Humane Transformation Cauldron, otherwise she would have slapped it long ago.

Other saints need scruples, but Nuwa doesn't. Who made her the Holy Mother of Human Race?

Regardless of the reason, Di Xin got himself into big trouble.

...

In the heavenly court, Li Mu, who was discussing with Haotian, sensed the changes in the heavenly secrets, and his face changed drastically.

He was so busy dealing with matters related to martial arts that he ignored the changes in the dynasties of the world, so much so that he didn't even notice that Di Xin was being plotted against.

The matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more. Even if the mastermind behind the scenes could be traced, it would not be able to undo the start of the murder.

Perhaps sensing the change in Li Mu's expression, Haotian who was preaching suddenly stopped, and asked:

"Fellow Daoist Taihua, are you worried about the changes in the human world?"

Haotian still asked about such an obvious matter, apparently with a plan in mind.

Without hiding anything, Li Mu nodded and said, "Of course!"

"The killing and calamity starts, and the human race becomes the protagonist of the calamity, and it is destined to suffer heavy losses.

Originally, this is nothing. Natural selection, survival of the fittest, and the human race should be tested as the protagonists of the world.

It's just that for some reason, Pindao always has a sense of crisis, as if the entire Three Realms will be affected by the calamity, as if the world is about to collapse. "

The cultivation base has reached their level, and the era of playing tricks has passed. He was able to sense the mystery hidden in the sky, and Haotian, as the emperor of heaven, could not have noticed it.

It's just that Li Mu doesn't know, because of the jade plate, his grasp of the secrets of heaven has always been far beyond ordinary people.

Even if Hao Tiangui is the Emperor of Heaven, he only faintly sensed the crisis and didn't know what would happen next.

After Li Mu figured out the mystery, Haotian, who understood it, was full of shock in his heart.

If the person in front of him was Fuxi who majored in the Dao of Tianji, maybe he could accept it, but Li Mu was obviously not.

Just a minor, there is such a heavenly attainment, the impact on Haotian is shocking.

After all, he was in Zixiao Palace, and Haotian basically has all the great powers hidden in the prehistoric world. He really couldn't figure out that there was Li Mu.

If it was in ancient times, Haotian would definitely suspect that Li Mu was the Chaos Demon God. However, after so many times of continuous cleaning, the Chaos Demon God has long been extinct.

"Fellow Daoist Taihua, don't need to worry too much. If the world is going to collapse, the saints will take action. It is still far away from the immeasurable calamity, but no one wants to see the prehistoric destruction ahead of schedule."

Haotian pretended to be calm and said.

In fact, he already regretted discussing this issue in the hall. Judging by the frightened expressions on Qunxian's face, one could tell that the news of the conversation just now frightened everyone.

As one of the few great powers in the prehistoric world, he may be able to linger in the chaos after the world collapses, but the monks under Da Luo are dead and lifeless.

When it comes to life and death, few people can face it calmly. As a last resort, Haotian could only use the saints to appease people's hearts.

Deep in his heart, Li Mu couldn't help laughing to himself. Haotian is also right in his words, the saints will indeed take action to stabilize Honghuang, but they were the ones who defeated Honghuang in the first place.

No one wants to see the prehistoric world destroyed, but some people want the prehistoric world to decline!

If it was changed, maybe Li Mu would make the same decision. There is no way, who will make the prehistoric world emerge in large numbers?

For the development of the world, this is a good thing; but for those who are right, it is hard to say.

The rapid development of the world can indeed bring huge benefits to those who follow the Tao, the prerequisite is that he can afford it.

If the world develops too fast, and the Daoist's inability to comprehend the Dao rhyme fed back by the world, it will become an accident.

If things go on like this, the Dao of Heaven will become stronger and stronger, the strength of the Daoists will not keep up with the pace, and the original Daoist relationship will gradually change.

After all, one day those who agree with the Tao will lose their own value, and eventually get lost in the countless world laws and become the nourishment for the evolution of the world.

If it weren't for these sequelae, the battle for the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao back then would not have been attended by only a few powerful people, but a carnival of all great supernatural beings.

Understanding is understanding, Li Mu is still not optimistic about Hongjun's plan. All the powerful people in the prehistoric world are not fools, and after a few more tosses, they will eventually find the problem.

As the Dao ancestor, Hongjun didn't want the world to develop too fast, so he had to find a way to hinder it. It didn't mean that other great powers didn't want the world to evolve either.

After all, there will be a day when everyone will face each other for their own paths.

Although Hongjun is temporarily in the lead, he is restricted by the law of heaven and cannot do many things that cross the border. If there is a fight, the outcome is still unknown.

In the final analysis, I am still too ambitious and want to eat alone. If a few more experts were found to share the burden, the situation would definitely not be so bad.

Perhaps the birth of the Six Saints was because Hongjun couldn't bear the pressure alone and wanted to find someone to share it with.

It's just that greed made him unable to let go, and he only opened up some authority to the Six Sages, and he still had to face most of the pressure from Heaven.
