The reincarnation of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox and the phoenix swallowing the dragon. The first thing that flashed across Li Xiu's mind was that the mastermind behind such a huge move was the Buddhist Sect.
If the elements of the Xianxia world of the Journey to the West were not mentioned, in real history, the rise of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty was during the period of Wu Zetian.
Chen Xuanzang had only brought the western scriptures back to the Tang Empire, but the rise of Buddhism in the Tang Empire could only be traced back to the Zhou Dynasty.
When Wu Zetian proclaimed herself emperor, Buddhism was the first to advocate orthodoxy. They compiled scriptures and said that she was the reincarnation of a female Bodhisattva. Wu Zetian returned the favor and Buddhist temples began to be built extensively in the territory of Wu Zhou.
However, that was purely history. The current world was a world where Xianxia elements existed. There were heavenly secrets, fate, and great divine arts practitioners looking around the three worlds. It was definitely not that easy to usurp the fate of a dynasty, especially a prosperous dynasty.
During the Battle of Gods Investiture, King Zhou had insulted Goddess Nvywa so bluntly. Goddess Nvywa was the Sage and the Holy Mother of the Human Tribe, but she could not destroy the Shang Dynasty directly. This showed how important the fate of the dynasty was.
In the Xianxia world, it was even more difficult to steal the fate of a country than to usurp the throne in history.
If it was just the Buddhist Sect alone, Li Xiu would definitely not believe that they had such great power.
Then, who was their partner?
Nuwa!
The second force that flashed through Li Xiu's mind was Emperor NvWa Palace.
Many people who were well-versed in the primeval style would subconsciously be confused by the concept of Nüwa becoming a saint through the merit of creating people.
Among the six Sages, Nüwa was the weakest, and Zhunti was the second to last. This was a concept that had always been talked about by netizens.
However, during the fourteen years that Daoist Heavenspan had been teaching Li Xiu, he had mentioned more than once that Goddess Nuwa was not as simple as he had imagined.
After that, Li Xiu had sorted out the forces of Emperor NvWa's Palace and was shocked.
Before the war between the Sorcerer and Demon Tribe, Emperor NvWa Palace was indeed weak. However, after the war between the Sorcerer and Demon Tribe, human beings rose and Emperor NvWa Palace's power began to expand rapidly.
First of all, one of the Three Sage Emperors of the Human Race, Fuxi, was the elder brother of Goddess Nvywa. He held the River Map and the Book of Luo.
In the Battle of Gods Investiture, Nezha, the vanguard of Western Zhou, was the reincarnation of Ling Zhuzi of Emperor NvWa Palace. Later, he was one of the few people who became gods with their bodies.
If Nezha hadn't been cheated by someone once and given a fake lotus body, his strength would probably not be weaker than Sun Wukong and Yang Jian.
Then there was the Journey to the West. Sun Wukong, one of the two main characters of the Journey to the West, was born from the Multicolored Stone that Nüwa refined to mend the sky.
Speaking of Sun Wukong and Nuwa, Li Xiu had another very interesting guess. It was actually a bit of nonsense for the Stone Monkey to be born in the Multicolored Stone.
However, during the Battle of Gods Investiture, Goddess Nvywa had once captured another monkey. It was Yuan Hong, the leader of the Seven Sages of Meishan Mountain. Interestingly, Yuan Hong also practiced the Eight Nine Mysteries and had the same supernatural powers as Yang Jian. He used an iron rod and fought with Yang Jian for hundreds of rounds. At that time, Yang Jian was still young and could not win after a long battle!
In the end, Yang Jian borrowed the Mountain and River Map from Goddess Nvywa and lured Yuan Hong into the Mountain and River Map. Then, he was killed by Jiang Ziya with the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife. Later, Yuan Hong was sealed as a Four Crippled Stars!
A great demon who could fight Yang Jian and still had the strength to spare was only sealed as a Fourth Crippled Star!
Crippled Four, you taste, you taste carefully!
After that, the Spiritual Stone Monkey, Sun Wukong, was born. He perfectly inherited all of Yuan Hong's previous characteristics and then fought with Yang Jian, who was both a friend and an enemy!
Let's go back to the forces of Emperor NvWa Palace. Why did Li Xiu think of Emperor NvWa Palace?
One of the most important candidates was one of the Three Sovereigns of the Human Race, Heavenly Emperor Fuxi.
What exactly was the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi in charge of?
The answer was the fate of the human race!
According to Daoist Heavenspan, the Battle of Gods Investiture wasn't as simple as a mere official position in the Heavenly Court. It represented the reestablishment of order in the world!
Take the Human Tribe as an example. Before they became gods, the leader of the Human Tribe was called the Human Emperor. The Human Emperor had blessed the Human Tribe with great luck. This was one of the reasons why Goddess Nvywa could do nothing to King Zhou.
To a certain extent, Goddess Nvywa was the Holy Mother of the Human Tribe, while King Zhou was the Emperor of the Human Tribe. The Luck of the Human Tribe that they enjoyed was almost the same, so they were equal in status.
However, after the apotheosis, the leader of the human race was no longer the Human Ruler, but the Son of Heaven. This meant that the human race was under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court, and the fate of the human dynasty was taken away by the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi.
In Daoist Heavenspan's own words, no other power had dared to take it, and no one else had been worthy of it. After all, the fate of the human race was the sovereign of heaven and earth, and not even a Saint could withstand it.
Only Nuwa and Fuxi could get their hands on it.
From then on, the fate of the Human Race's rise and fall was controlled by the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi. The past human emperors were no longer on equal footing with the immortals and gods like in ancient times.
To put it bluntly, the God-Sealing War could be said to be a unification of the Heavenly Court and the various Sages, but it was a great weakening of the human race.
From then on, the fate of the human race was no longer in the hands of their own race. Instead, it was worshipped high and mighty.
Thus, it was impossible to hide from Fuxi, one of the Three Sovereigns, if he wanted to touch the Fate Dragon of the Great Tang, especially at such a sensitive time as the Journey to the West.
Besides this, there was another point, which was Wu Zetian's nine-tailed celestial fox in her previous life.
Who was the last nine-tailed celestial fox? Shang Zhou's favorite concubine, Demon Empress Su Daji!
Even a person like King Zhou, Shen Gongbao, was conferred a Deity Position in the end. However, two of the most important figures in the Deification Ceremony had disappeared without a trace!
Firstly, Jiang Ziya, who presided over the apotheosis, became a small duke and then disappeared without a trace.
Secondly, the Demon Empress Su Daji was killed by Jiang Ziya with the Immortal Slaying Flying Dagger in name. Then, she disappeared completely and was not apotheosized.
One had to know that a natural spirit beast like the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox was not a cabbage that could be picked up by the roadside.
Therefore, Emperor NvWa Palace not only chose to participate in the Journey to the West on the surface, but also secretly cooperated with Buddhism to play such a trick?
Li Xiu's eyes narrowed at this moment!
However, it was not enough to rely on Buddhism and Emperor NvWa's Palace alone. Stealing the fate dragon of an empire was one of the most difficult things in the three Sectors. No matter how powerful Buddhism and Emperor NvWa's Palace were, they could not do it alone!
Because there was still a third point that they could not bypass!
It was all thanks to Daoist Heavenspan's years of teaching that Li Xiu had gained a clear understanding of the major powers of the Three Realms. He had been able to use Wu Zetian's unique characteristics to slowly analyze the situation.
(I think I can copy the book review section in the future. There are still many big shots in the book review section. Then, it should not be difficult for you to guess the third point!) In addition, the flowers almost broke 10,000 yuan. Brothers, move your fingers and give some support!)
