"Child, don't be like this. Everything needs a process. Grandpa believes that you can do it!" Looking at the abnormally excited Wu Chen, Li Cong knew that nothing he said would work. He could only sit quietly at the side and watch his grandson calm down.
"Grandpa, don't worry about me. I know what I should do and what I shouldn't do. Please tell me about what happened back then.”Taking a deep breath, Wu Chen sat back down beside Li Congming.
"Alright, it's a long story. Grandpa isn't very clear about the details. However, Grandpa can tell you something else. After you understand this, you might understand what happened back then.”Li Congming was worried that Wu Chen would do something bad to him after hearing all this. Thus, Li Congming didn't want to tell Wu Chen too much at first, but after seeing Wu Chen's extraordinary calmness, Li Congming knew that his earlier worries were unnecessary.
Just as Li Congming had said, the truth of the past involved many things. In order to explain these things, he even had to go through the entire history of this continent.
Looking at the development of the continent, the entire human society had already experienced two great eras, the ancient and the ancient. It was only until now that the structure of thirteen provinces and thirty-nine prefectures had been formed.
Following the ancient will, Tiandao Sect divided the continent into 13 paths. The 13 paths were Taizhen, Yuanzhen, Wuzhen, Xuanzhen, Tianzhen, Mingzhen, Yuanzhen, Xiuzhen, and Huazhen. Under each path, there were three states, forming three counties as a county, three counties as a prefecture, three prefectures as a prefecture, and three prefectures as a state. Under this background, according to Tiandao Sect's rules, occupying a county could be called a king, occupying a state could be called an emperor, and occupying a prefecture could be called an emperor.
Speaking of this, it was necessary to talk about Tiandao Sect. No one knew when Tiandao Sect was established, but those who knew about Tiandao Sect knew that Tiandao Sect was the most powerful cultivation sect in the current cultivation world. There was no one else here. In addition, the current situation of the continent was set by this sect. It was easy to imagine how powerful Tiandao Sect was.
The reason why the Tiandao Sect was the only sect in the world was because of the apocalyptic disaster that happened at the end of the ancient era. From the birth of a world to its destruction, there were a total of five eras. This had become an indisputable fact. These five eras were the primordial era, ancient era, ancient era, modern era, and the end of the world. Every time the era changed, a world-destroying disaster would appear. During this time, the strong would rise and the weak would die.
In order to protect this mainland, Tiandao Sect had sent a total of 13 Perfected Cultivators to guard one area. Unfortunately, none of these 13 Perfected Cultivators had escaped the disaster of the apocalypse. Therefore, in order to commend the achievements of these 13 Perfected Cultivators for this mainland, the cultivation world named the 13 names of the mainland after the 13 Perfected Cultivators.
After experiencing the apocalypse, both the cultivation world and the secular world could be described as riddled with holes. However, as the foundation of the cultivation world, no force would give up on the secular world. However, at that time, Tiandao Sect was the strongest, so the right to punish on behalf of heaven fell to Tiandao Sect. For this reason, Tiandao Sect even specially refined a set of divine weapons-"Martial Order Medallion".
As a set divine artifact, the Martial Order Medallion could be split into 39 pieces, and each piece represented a prefecture. It could be said that in today's secular world, the person who obtained the Martial Order Medallion would rule the world. If one wanted to claim the title of emperor, one had to collect all three pieces of the Martial Order Medallion in a prefecture. Otherwise, even if one occupied seven or eight states and was far more powerful than an ordinary empire, an emperor would still be an emperor. If one rashly claimed to be an emperor, it was very likely that they would be punished by Tiandao Sect.
Li Congming paused for a moment before continuing. What he was going to say next was the most secretive of secrets and the root cause of the Jingguo coup.
According to Li Congming's understanding, in the ancient times, the continent's situation was different from today. The cultivation world suppressed the secular world, but the cultivation world and the secular world advanced side by side. It could even be said that the mortal world was stronger than the cultivation world at that time. It even had the momentum to suppress the cultivation world.
What was the reason? It was because in that era, other than the Dao of Rebirth, the Dao of the Universe, and the Dao of Faith, there were three other Great Dao. These three Daos were the Imperial Dao, Tyrannical Dao, and Divine Dao. If the three Daos of rebirth, faith, and the universe focused on the world, then the Imperial Dao, Tyrannical Dao, and Divine Dao focused on the world. The emperor's way emphasized on the emperor's aura and placed benevolence and righteousness first. Tyrannical emphasized killing, using killing to subdue killing, in exchange for a new world. As for the sacred art, it focused on the righteousness of heaven and earth, gathering the righteousness of the world for its own use, and using it to educate the world.
As the supreme existence of the three paths, the Saint Emperor, the Overlord, and the Saint, their cultivation was equivalent to the 'Shattering Void' of the Dao of Rebirth, the 'Heaven Man Unity' of the Dao of Faith, and the 'Creation' of the Dao of the Universe. It could be said that these were all supreme existences that would never change. It was precisely because of these supreme existences that the mortal world could protest against the cultivation world. However, with the arrival of the apocalypse, all of this would become a thing of the past. The supreme Imperial Way was filled with the tyranny of slaughter. The sacred way of unparalleled benevolence and righteousness also sank, and finally became a beautiful memory.
With the disappearance of Sage Emperors, Overlords, and Sages, the mortal world could no longer resist the cultivation world. Cultivators were also humans, and humans had greed. Faced with such a sweet cake from the secular world, the cultivation world had no reason to let it go. That was why the cultivation world suppressed the secular world. At the same time that the cultivation world suppressed the secular world, the cultivation world had no choice but to guard against the appearance of the three successors. This was perhaps the fundamental reason why Tiandao Sect had refined the Martial Order Medallion.
According to Li Congming's analysis, there were four reasons why Tiandao Sect did this. One was to show their supreme status in the cultivation world, two was to monitor the world through the Martial Order Medallion, three was to prevent the three successors from appearing again, and four was to divide the fate of the world.
Speaking of luck, Li Congming had to explain it to Wu Chen in detail. Luck was a mysterious and realistic thing. Li Congming made a very straightforward analogy. Even if a person without luck had the talent to cultivate to the highest level, he might fall to his death. For a person with luck, even if his talent was poor or even non-existent, he might be taught his own cultivation by someone when he left the door. This was luck.
Similarly, there was no lunch for idiots in the world. In order to obtain greater luck, other than having great luck, one also needed to fight and plunder. There was no reason for the cultivation world not to fight for something that could strengthen one's own strength. Furthermore, when Saint Emperor Qi died, he said that when another Heavenly Dynasty appeared in the secular world, it would be the day of the return of the Three Paths. The cultivation world had no reason to let this opponent, who had once terrified the entire cultivation world, develop. This was also why the secular world was constantly suppressed by the cultivation world.
As if to prove his point, Congming used the fall of the Zhou Dynasty and the rise of the Chen-Xing Empire as a reference. As a prince of the Chen-Xing Empire, Wu Chen had no reason to not know about the dynasties above the Zhou Dynasty. However, he had to know about the Zhou Dynasty. After all, there was still an organization called Qingmin Village among the people. They were constantly plotting to rule the Wu family and build a new Zhou Dynasty.
The Zhou Dynasty was founded by the Zhou ancestor, Pan Wu. It was said that the Pan family was related to the ancient Sage Emperor Pan by blood. Of course, this might just be a cover for the rulers. After all, this had happened many times in the past dynasties. However, this was not the most important thing. The Zhou Dynasty had survived for six hundred years and occupied seven of the thirteen lands. It was even more prosperous than the Chen-Xing Empire. However, it was destroyed by the ancestor of the Chen-Xing Empire, Wu Yuan.
Who was Wu Yuan? It wasn't that Wu Chen looked down on his ancestor, but that Wu Yuan was just an ordinary person. He was no taller than five feet, and his cultivation was only at the Transformation Marrow stage. He was stingy and greedy, and he was a complete local ruffian. Every time he read this part of the genealogy, a question would appear in Wu Chen's mind. How did this person snatch the throne from Zhou Mingzong? One had to know that Zhou Mingzong was not the most outstanding emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, but he did not look like a king who had lost his country. According to historical records, Zhou Mingzong was more than eight feet tall, and his cultivation was at the peak of the epic Martial Saint. Since childhood, he could be said to be a genius in literature and martial arts. It was simply nonsense to say that he did not know how to govern the country. It was simply a stain on Zhou Mingzong to say that he did not know how to appoint talents. In less than five years, the Zhou Dynasty's overall strength had doubled. In the seventh year, he sent troops to Dirong and returned with a great victory. In the thirteenth year, he sent troops to Quanrong and returned with a great victory. He once expanded the Zhou Dynasty's territory to nine prefectures and thirty-one provinces!
Wu Chen held such a person in high esteem, but how could such a powerful person lose to a local ruffian like Wu Yuan? This was truly puzzling.
Wu Yuan versus Zhou Mingzong. Even if Wu Yuan used all sorts of underhanded methods, even a fool would know that Zhou Mingzong would still win in the end. But do you know how much time Wu Yuan took to f * ck Zhou Chao? One year, or more accurately, eleven months and twenty days. This was a time that made one's hair stand on end. One had to know that the Zhou Dynasty's territory spanned a large distance. Even if one rode a horse around the Zhou Dynasty's territory, it would take at least seven to eight months, not to mention the time-consuming business of marching, fighting, and attacking cities.
Why? In the past, Wu Chen didn't know about this because the royal family had sealed off all the historical records. The emperor wouldn't be able to see it unless he did it. However, after hearing Congming's words, Wu Chen finally understood.
Wu Chen's face paled at the thought of this. While he understood the power of the cultivation world, he no longer wanted to ask about the reason for the Jingguo incident.
This was because Wu Chen knew that he no longer had to think about these things. He had to think about how to face the cultivation world. If he could not contend against the cultivation world, no matter how hard he tried, everything would be a bubble when he faced the cultivation world.
