Because of Zheng Lei's endless supply of pills, the strength of the Qing Qiu Fox Race had risen by a large level.
When Purple Succubus was still in charge, the small clan with only one immortal could not be compared to them.
Currently, most of the fox demons in the Qing Qiu fox clan had reached the Nascent Soul stage, and more than 30 of them had even reached the Crossing Calamity stage.
As for the six elders of the fox clan, Huo Hu, Bai Shi, and Qing Huan, they had already passed their Heavenly Tribulations and become Earth Immortals. The remaining ones, Leng Ning, Xue Shuang, and the timber raccoon, had already reached the great circle of the Heavenly Tribulation. If they succeeded, they could become Immortals at any time.
Yin Ling and Daji were sisters. Yin Ling was now at the fifth level of the Crossing Calamity Stage, while Daji had also reached the peak of the Crossing Calamity Stage. As long as they could pass the Heavenly Tribulation, they would become Earth Immortals.
After returning to the Qing Qiu fox clan, Zheng Lei first refined the newly obtained Primordial Chaos Gourd, then used the Flying Immortal Stone to comprehend the Dao and cultivate.
This Flying Immortal Stone was indeed worthy of being a Dao Comprehension treasure. In about ten days, his cultivation level rose from the ninth-stage Heavenly Immortal realm, which he had been trapped for a long time, to the perfected Heavenly Immortal realm.
After that, Zheng Lei cultivated in peace in the Qing Qiu fox clan. In just 15 years, Zheng Lei's cultivation directly jumped a major realm and rose to the Mystic Immortal perfected stage.
His mental state cultivation had once again surpassed his own cultivation and reached the perfected Primordial realm.
At the same time, Zheng Lei didn't know that something big was happening in Zhaoge, the capital of Great Shang. It could affect the entire world.
In the main hall of the Imperial Palace.
The person sitting on the throne at the top was King Zhou, who was tall and straight.
Below them were two rows of ministers.
"Your Majesty, tomorrow will be the birthday of the Goddess Dowager! According to the human ancestral system, the king should go to the ancestral temple to worship the mother god.”
In the morning court, a minister in charge of etiquette stood out to report.
"Female Snail Mother Goddess! Was she the one who created the human race? She was both the mother god of the human race and the god of reproduction of the human race?”
After learning from Zheng Lei for ten years, King Zhou was not the licentious, brazen, and foolish man in the original novel. He asked with interest after listening to Zheng Lei.
"That's right, Great King! It's the Sage." The official nodded.
"Since the Sage created the human race and is also the God of Reproduction, I will naturally go and worship him.”King Zhou nodded in agreement.
The next morning.
King Zhou, who was dressed neatly, walked to the ancestral temple with his ministers.
When he arrived at the ancestral temple, he saw the God Slaying Saber that was placed in the side hall of the ancestral temple. It was also worshipped by everyone and was regarded as a national divine weapon by Great Shang.
King Zhou, who was already middle-aged, said dejectedly,"It's a pity that Master has been away from Chaoge for fifteen years. He didn't know if his teacher would return!”
All these years, he had listened to Zheng Lei's teachings. He knew that war was about money and economy. All these years, the Shang Dynasty had only been fighting with Dongyi, Fangren, and other foreign barbarians to give them the necessary deterrence.
Secretly, they implemented various system reforms. Not only did they increase the population of the Shang Dynasty, but they also increased the economy of the Shang Dynasty by several times.
However, Zheng Lei, the national master of the imperial court, who had made all of this happen, had left Zhaoge without reporting to him fifteen years ago and had not returned since.
This made him suspect if Zheng Lei had already given up on Great Shang.
He had once asked Grand Preceptor Wen Zhong and knew that immortals lived too long. Compared to the time immortals lived, even the entire Great Shang was probably just a flash of light in the eyes of immortals.
"Great King! Don't worry, I believe Imperial Preceptor hasn't given up on Great Shang. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left such a powerful magic weapon like the God Slaying Saber in Great Shang.”
Seeing that King Zhou was in low spirits, Wen Zhong, who was standing beside him, comforted him.
He didn't think that Zheng Lei left Great Shang because he had given up on Great Shang.
All these years, he had often thought of Zheng Lei's words before he left. He had always felt that as an immortal, Zheng Lei definitely knew something.
He had once sent a message to his master, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother, in the Green Touring Palace. In the end, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother told him to quickly find a place to seal the mountain and recite the Yellow Court quietly. He did not want to participate in the battles between the mortal dynasties.
He and Di Yi were childhood friends. The reason why he went out to sea to seek Dao was to assist Di Yi. He naturally would not choose to ignore this matter.
However, the words of Zheng Lei and his master, the Gold Spirit Holy Mother, told him that there would be a huge change in this world.
"That's true. If his teacher really wanted to leave, he wouldn't have left behind such a powerful magic treasure.”
Feeling that Grand Preceptor Wen Zhong's words were reasonable, King Zhou walked out of his depressed mood and said.
When they walked to the main hall, a ceremonial officer introduced them to King Zhou and offered incense to the human sages who were worshiped in the side hall.
"This is Emperor Sui, also known as Suirenshi. The Fire Ancestor is the leader of the Three Emperors. He invented the use of fire, allowing the human race to escape from the barbaric era of eating raw meat and drinking blood.”
"This is the Fuxi Celestial Race, also known as Sovereign Xi, the son of the Sui Sovereign, one of the three sovereigns. He invented the Eight Trigrams, created the written language, taught the human race how to fish and hunt, and created music.”
"This is Shennong, also known as Shennong or the Earth Sovereign. He is one of the Three Sovereigns. Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and taught people how to use herbs to cure diseases.”
"This is the Emperor, one of the Five Emperors. He defeated the Wu Tribe led by Chi You and established the rightful position of the Human Tribe.”
…………
"This is the Thunder Emperor, one of the ancient sages. He and Emperor Yu, one of the five emperors, traveled the Primordial World for a hundred years. Together, they killed demons and controlled the water to save billions of humans. Some people even called him and the five emperors the six emperors of the human race.”
When they arrived in front of a statue with a pair of wide purple wings on its back, the ceremonial officer looked at the statue and said,
King Zhou, who had just swept his gaze over and left after offering three incense sticks, suddenly stopped in front of the statue of the Thunder Emperor.
He asked Wen Zhong and Bi Dao beside him,""Grand Preceptor, Uncle Wang, don't you think that the state preceptor looks very similar to this Thunder Emperor?”
After Bi Gan and Wen Zhong finished reading, they nodded and said,"We have the same feeling."
"Grand Preceptor, Uncle Wang, make a guess. Is it possible that Teacher is the Thunder Emperor?" King Zhou was suspicious.”
"Your Majesty!" Bigan smiled bitterly. That was impossible! The Thunder Emperor is a human sage, a legendary figure. Even if the Thunder Emperor really exists, why would he come to our Great Shang?”
"Yeah!" Wen Zhong also said. Your Majesty. A legendary figure like the Thunder Emperor is too far away from us. Moreover, if the Thunder Emperor really exists, it's impossible for him to appear in our Shang Dynasty.”
"Why?" King Zhou was puzzled.”
Wen Zhong could only explain," This actually involves a secret of the Human Tribe. I heard it from Master by accident."”
"It's said that the six Sages are too afraid of the development of the human race and don't want the human race to escape their control. Therefore, as long as a powerful figure appears in the human race, they will eventually be taken to the Fire Cloud Cave and imprisoned.”
" Once you enter the Fire Cloud Cave, you will never be able to leave. For example, the famous Sages, Three Sovereigns, and Five Emperors in human history were not only Sages, but also powerful Immortal Cultivators. They possessed extremely terrifying strength, but in the end, they did not escape the fate of being trapped in the Fire Cloud Cave.”
"Since the Thunder Emperor was also one of the ancient sages, he definitely couldn't escape the fate of being trapped in the Fire Cloud Cave. Therefore, the state preceptor couldn't be the Thunder Emperor.”
