Chapter 211: Jiang Wang’s Handwriting, a Ten Thousand Years-Long Plan

"In fact, a few years ago, I even read a lot of books, trying to find the possibility of resurrection from the dead, but I never found anything."
Emperor Yongtai said with some self-mockery, "Now it seems that perhaps only the reincarnation of Taizu will be an exception."
Xu Chong was silent.
It seems that the resurrection from the dead can indeed be attributed to the reincarnation of Taizu. Even if it is unreasonable, it is at least acceptable.
But now, the appearance of Jiang Wang not only makes this incident unable to serve as the basis for Taizu's reincarnation, but also proves from another direction that he is not Taizu's reincarnation.
The original body was indeed dead, and the rules of immortality could not apply to a dead person.
What really brought Xu Chong back to life was his own time travel.
As for what role the rules of longevity play in this...
Xu Chong guessed that he must have been given the panel as a golden finger after his death in his previous life, and the reason why he traveled to this world was because the panel that already existed at that time was attracted by the rules of immortality in his original body.
With this explanation, everything makes much more sense.
"And then?"
Xu Chong asked.
"Later, you managed to survive, but Xu Youan didn't have much time to live."
Emperor Yongtai looked at Xu Chong jokingly, "During the rest of the time, he dragged his seriously injured body and repeated his previous misunderstood actions to save people from suffering. Then, before he died, he chose to cater to the county magistrate's conspiracy and created an accidental death for himself to help you get rid of the shackles of past pain... Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really moving."
"If ridicule can transfer my gratitude to Xu Youan to you, then from the beginning, I will not face you as an enemy."
Xu Chong said coldly.
"Oh."
Emperor Yongtai sneered, "I will be leaving Tianxuan Realm soon. If you have anything to ask, please ask them together."
"Out of bounds..."
Xu Chong's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Leave a life lamp."
"how?"
Emperor Yongtai was a little surprised, "Would you care about my life or death?"
"If you go out of bounds, I promise not to tamper with your memory, and before the life lamp goes out..."
Xu Chong said, with a slight smile on his face, "Don't take advantage of the special status of Taizu's reincarnation to establish a new king."
"!!!"
Emperor Yongtai's pupils suddenly shrank into needle points.
yes.
Since Xu Chong was able to bypass the restrictions of the clan order and directly use the Six Covenants, there was no reason why he could not bypass the restrictions of Emperor Qing and directly use the imperial seal.
A new king...
Once the new Emperor Qing ascends the throne, the Mandate of Heaven will immediately return to the Tianxuan Realm and to the new monarch.
As for myself outside the realm, I will lose control of my words and actions the moment my destiny leaves me... The true realm of Zifu Zhongdao does not even have a Yang God, which will lead to death.
No!
It's not just that simple.
If Xu Chong wanted to, he could establish a new king right now, then walk into the back hall openly and completely crush himself.
There is no need to wait until you are out of bounds...
Thinking of this, even a person with a strong character like Emperor Yongtai could not avoid feeling bitter.
At the beginning, he thought that Xu Chong had only one way to trap him in the back hall.
It can be said that neither of them can do anything to the other, and at most they can just keep out of each other's way.
As for the mark of Emperor Qing that appeared afterwards, Emperor Yongtai did not completely believe it, whether it was self-deception or unwillingness.
The so-called Emperor Qing's Seal might have been deliberately fabricated by Xu Chong in order to completely undermine the imperial power.
After all, among all the previous orders issued by Daizong, there had never been any revelation of this aspect.
But now…
Use the imperial seal by force and establish a new king?
With the precedent of forcing the Six Covenants, this is much more credible than the Seal of Emperor Qing.
Emperor Yongtai didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that he was now at the mercy of others.
"Okay, I'll leave the life lamp."
Emperor Yongtai sighed, his shoulders drooping slightly, "Ask me."
"How did this gap appear in the first place?"
Xu Chong did not give it to Emperor Yongtai, but asked directly.
"How did it appear?"
Emperor Yongtai frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "The previous emperors did not leave any records of this matter. It should have been a natural result of the world's decline. Why are you asking this?"
"Not really. The world can be seen as an enlarged version of the cave, so the manifestation of decline should be similar."
As Xu Chong spoke, the two characters of Spring and Autumn, which were covered with cracks, appeared between his eyebrows. "For example, the entrance and exit of the cave in the Spring and Autumn Tomb are very normal. There is no sign of any cracks or expansion at the entrance and exit like here. The only sign is the cracks in the hub of the cave."
"Spring and Autumn Tomb..."
Emperor Yongtai pondered.
He had already thought of the fact that the Spring and Autumn Tomb was obtained by Xu Chong when he guessed that Lin Kuang was Xu Chong in disguise, so he was not surprised to see it with his own eyes now.
But he had never considered the problem that Xu Chong mentioned before.
After a moment, Emperor Yongtai spoke: "It may be that the level of Tianxuan Realm is much higher than that of Chunqiu Tomb, or it may be that this gap was not caused by the decline of Tianxuan Realm. I have no way to judge this, but there is one thing..."
As he spoke, a diamond-shaped golden pattern appeared between Emperor Yongtai's eyebrows.
"This is the destiny of the Tianxuan Realm, something similar to the Dongtian Hub that is used to control the rules."
Emperor Yongtai explained, and said solemnly: "If I am not mistaken, it has been like this since ancient times, without any changes, otherwise it would be impossible that there is no record left."
“…”
Xu Chong looked at Emperor Yongtai's brows and felt a little heavy.
The diamond pattern did not look like the words "Spring and Autumn". It came out directly from the forehead and floated in the air. There was no light revealed. It was just tightly attached to the skin between Emperor Yongtai's eyebrows, making it look more like it was painted on.
As for the pattern itself, although it is filled with a large number of tiny patterns, anyone can see that they are not cracks, but mysterious runes that contain some profound truths.
"It seems you've thought of it too."
Emperor Yongtai stared at Xu Chong's expression and said, "It is very likely that the gap in Tianxuan Realm did not appear naturally, but was... man-made!"
"The existence of the Tianxuan Realm to this day is not necessarily due to human intervention."
Xu Chong shook his head, collected his thoughts, and said, "I heard from Prime Minister Lou that you mentioned a letter from Taizu during the grand sacrifice? Is there anything special recorded in it?"
"No, Taizu's letter sounds mysterious, but it's actually nothing important."
Emperor Yongtai shook his head, then looked at Xu Chong with some sarcasm, "The reason why only the successive Emperors Qing and clan leaders are qualified to read it is because it records many absurd things that happened to Taizu during his youth and prime... If you want to explore the origin of the gap in heaven and earth, I'm afraid it will only be possible if you regain Taizu's memory."
"Is that so?"
Xu Chong frowned and asked again: "What about the blood pool of heaven and earth ? How did this thing appear?"
"Blood Pool of Heaven and Earth..."
Emperor Yongtai's expression changed slightly, "Did you even notice this?"
"It's hard not to be curious about the fact that the Taiping Dao people can get rid of the household registration restrictions."
Xu Chong said calmly, "I have seen some records in the Fang family's library, but they only describe the process of discovering the Heaven and Earth Blood Pool, without clearly stating its principles and origins."
"The Fang family's library?"
Emperor Yongtai raised his eyebrows and instantly understood many things. "I was wondering how Lou Youzhi and others could find a solution to the Tao Heart Demon. It turns out it was you..."
Xu Chong neither admitted nor denied it.
Emperor Yongtai didn't care and continued, "I don't know how the Fang family wrote this matter, but in fact, whether it is the blood pool of Taiping Dao or the blood pool of the three ancient clans, they all come from my Daqing royal family."
"Um?"
Xu Chong's eyes shone, and he said, "In the Fang family's Tianxuan Chronicle, the earliest Heaven and Earth Blood Pool that appeared was indeed presented to the three ancient clans by Qing Taizu Jiang Wang, but the blood pool of Taiping Dao was obtained by the first generation of Daoist masters by chance..."
"Have you ever thought about what the first Taoist master was like before he founded the Taiping Dao?"
Emperor Yongtai chuckled.
“Could it be…”
Xu Chong's heart moved slightly.
"It seems you thought of it."
Emperor Yongtai nodded. "The first Taoist master used the pseudonym Bai Yuzi. His real name is Jiang Shanyu. He is a member of the Daqing royal family."
"At the beginning, Jiang Shanyu was the most dazzling one among the princes."
"All the civil and military officials, as well as the aristocratic families, believed that he would definitely enter the East Palace and become the next emperor of Daqing."
"Unfortunately, for unknown reasons, he lost to another unremarkable prince in the imperial examination and ended up in second place."
Coming in second?
Xu Chong frowned for a while: "Even if he failed to become the crown prince, he still had a great chance to serve as the clan leader, right? Is that why he rebelled against the court?"
"Of course not."
Emperor Yongtai shook his head. "Let's not talk about me first. Do you think Xinghe has ever thought about rebelling against the court after he was deposed?"
"Definitely not."
Xu Chong answered without hesitation.
At this time , Jiang Xinghe had been dead for half a month.
Xu Chong did not attend the grand ceremonies such as posthumous honors and funerals.
But not participating only means that he thinks these things are meaningless to the dead, it does not mean that he has forgotten the dead.
"That's right."
Emperor Yongtai's tone was somewhat depressed. "In fact, anyone who can pass the imperial examination and become the crown prince under the guidance of the royal family is basically pretty much the same."
"That Jiang Shanyu's character and personality are not inferior to Xinghe or King Qian."
"After he missed out on the throne of the Eastern Palace, he was naturally made a king and became the Right Clan Member of the Clan Affairs Bureau."
"If nothing unexpected happens, one year after the crown prince ascends the throne, he will take up the position of clan leader like Prince Qian did, and become the second most noble person in the entire Daqing."
"Unfortunately, the accident still happened."
"Not long after he became a member of the Right Clan, his mother was murdered by the Crown Prince's mother and her body was mutilated."
"It was because of this incident that Jiang Shanyu rebelled against Daqing and established the Taiping Dao."
Emperor Yongtai suddenly laughed as he spoke, "People at that time probably could not have imagined that the Taiping Dao could survive and develop to this day."
"Harem infighting..."
Xu Chong thought of Jiang Shengjun's mother, and felt a little disdainful. "It seems that Emperor Qing's handling of this matter was very unfair."
"The royal annals only record the approximate time, and the reasons are no longer known."
Emperor Yongtai shook his head. "It's just that since then, successive emperors of Daqing have begun to severely curb the power of the harem. Without permission, concubines are not even allowed to leave the palace without permission."
"As for the blood pool..."
"In fact, there was only one Heaven and Earth Blood Pool at the beginning."
"Just like the Daqing Arsenal, it was also built by Taizu Jiang Wang."
"Haha, you may not believe it."
"The Great Ancestor created the Six Covenants at the cost of the incomplete purple palace of his descendants' bloodline, and used the blood pool of heaven and earth to bind all the descendants' bloodline..."
Emperor Yongtai looked at Xu Chong deeply, "Its original function was to remotely refine and collect the remaining blood in the body of the royal family after their death."
“…”
Xu Chong's heart was filled with emotions.
As early as when he first obtained the Spring and Autumn Tomb, he had seen the Heaven and Earth Blood Pool owned by the Fang family.
To the naked eye, there is nothing special about the Blood Pool of Heaven and Earth. It is just a pool of bright red liquid.
Although it was very thick and looked like high blood lipids, there was no sign of coagulation. Xu Chong thought it was something else special.
I never expected that it was human blood, or the blood of the royal family...
After thinking for a while, Xu Chong asked, "Did Taizu build the blood pool to leave it to future emperors to delay the great catastrophe of heaven and earth?"
"That's right."
Emperor Yongtai nodded. "As for the blood pool being able to free people from household registration restrictions, it must be a function that was discovered later."
"But why did he give the blood pool to the three major families?"
Xu Chong asked doubtfully, "Although the Fang family's records are not detailed, I can see that Daqing at that time was fully capable of destroying the three ancient clans."
"The royal annals only record the event itself, without the detailed reasons, but I can roughly guess a little..."
Emperor Yongtai narrowed his eyes and said, "The Heaven and Earth Blood Pool refines the royal blood essence, which can be said to be the closest to Taizu himself. Soaking in the blood pool can not only get rid of household registration restrictions, but multiple soakings can also slightly increase your qualifications."
Xu Chong seemed to be thinking about it, and was not too surprised by this.
After all, excluding special cases, the royal family is undoubtedly the most talented in the entire Tianxuan Realm. It is reasonable that soaking in the royal blood can increase one's talents.
The real focus should be on the latter.
really.
"Of course, for most people, they only soak in it a few times in their lifetime. Apart from the risk of being controlled by the three ancient clans, there are no other dangers."
Emperor Yongtai raised his lips sinisterly, "But for the three ancient clans that have been immersed in the blood pool for every generation, it's different..."
"Over the past ten thousand years, the three ancient clans may have possessed a strong ancestor bloodline."
"Of course, unlike the real Taizu bloodline, the Taizu bloodline of the three ancient clans is not inherited naturally by the rules of heaven and earth, but is transformed by external forces."
"I guess they have both the blood of Taizu and themselves in their bodies."
"It is very likely that the three ancient clans are Taizu's other preparation for the great catastrophe of heaven and earth."
The method of blood sacrifice!
Xu Chong thought of this instinctively.
But then he frowned again.
“Even though the three ancient clans have both bloodlines, their population is still limited. How much effect can a blood sacrifice to the Profound Sky Realm have?”
Xu Chong asked.
"No, no, no, don't underestimate the three ancient clans."
Emperor Yongtai's smile was extremely treacherous. "After all, they are a force that was independent from the Yin-Yang Palace. Even if their bloodline is not as good as Taizu's, it is not too far behind."
"At least, as a sacrifice, one of them can be worth a hundred ordinary people."
"It's a pity that the bloodline belonging to Taizu is still a little thin. It can only be considered half at most, which makes their own bloodline a bit of a waste."
so……
"You exterminated the Fang family, was it more for blood sacrifice?"
Xu Chong asked coldly.
Even though the purpose of the blood sacrifice was for the Tianxuan Realm and the sacrifice was the ancient clan that even he wanted to destroy, the blood sacrifice itself could not make him feel any favor.
"What else?"
Emperor Yongtai shrugged nonchalantly, "Even if Lin Kuang really escaped to the Fang family, even if the Fang family can really learn to transform into an external body, it is impossible for them to pose a threat to Daqing."
"What's the result?"
Xu Chong thought of another point, "I remember that the blood sacrifice method needs a natural disaster to take effect, right?"
"On land, you need natural disasters, but not at sea."
Emperor Yongtai shook his head. "The Endless Sea surrounds the land, close to the end of the world, and the end of the world is itself a kind of natural disaster."
"As long as they die at sea, the blood sacrifice will automatically take effect at the end of the world."
"In fact, it has already taken effect. The great catastrophe of heaven and earth has been postponed for another three years."
Emperor Yongtai shook his head with some disdain, "I'm afraid Taizu didn't expect that one of the three ancient tribes that he supported so much would only have such a small population until now. It's really a bit of a waste of time."
"I'm fine now."
Xu Chong turned around without warning and walked directly towards the front hall.
Emperor Yongtai was somewhat puzzled. He only opened his mouth and shouted when Xu Chong's back was almost out of sight: "I'm ready. I will leave tomorrow. You can send your phantom body in to take the life lamp."
Xu Chong ignored him and kept walking until he returned to the front hall, where his phantom body and real body reunited into one.
In fact, neither the life lamp nor the doubts were his purpose for entering the back hall this time.
His real purpose is still related to Jiang Wang.
Now he has the answer.
Taizu of Daqing might really be the kind of person who cares about the world, but in essence, he is still very different from Jiang Zhihong and others.
That is to use any means to achieve the goal.
Spanning nearly ten thousand years, the three ancient clans were calculated to be sacrificed...
It's really admirable and terrifying.
Of course, this is not a matter of right or wrong.
Xu Chong even asked himself, if he were in Jiang Wang's shoes and had the same experience as Jiang Wang, his methods would probably be more violent.
The only thing this concerns is his meeting with Jiang Wang.
"It's better not to meet such a tyrant unless it's absolutely necessary."
Xu Chong made a decision in his heart.
The competition in Taiping Township will be held in half a month, so let’s deal with this matter first.
