Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 532: The Great Dao of the Female Emperor
Holding a three-pointed, double-edged sword, Haotian led an army of seventy-two divisions to go into battle.
He caused the Huachu clan to advance westwards to the kingdom of Daxia;
He ordered Feng Jianshi to march eastward and attack Ruan Yuxi;
He sent the Daqi clan north to hunt, and personally went to subdue the thirty-six foreign tribes including Longqiu, Kangjie, and Xiegu;
He transferred Chongguang clan to the south and, together with the Dragon clan, quelled the rebellions of 24 tribes including Xuanxuan, Zhaoyang, and Shangzhang.
While Haotian was fighting wars in the east and west, and in the south and north, Qinghuang was also not idle.
On the one hand, she valued wise men, measured laws, adjusted social order, and governed civil affairs, so that the country would follow the same order and the people would obey her virtue.
It was these measures that put the newly incorporated territories on the track of development.
On the other hand, Qing Huang dispatched the Phoenix Clan out of the mountains and rivers, into the swamps, into the desert, and to the plains to suppress the violent and violent underground fire in Xiniu Hezhou;
He also sent Tianlu and Fengling'er to lead the spirits to establish many good places and open more sources of life to bring vitality to the barren land.
The great wizard Ju Mang even offered advice: "The three generations of human emperors, while conquering heaven and earth, all promoted rituals and music.
This was not only because the three generations of emperors were gifted and loved music, but also because they wanted to achieve the goal of "pleasuring people with music and eliminating punishment."
Now that the leader has determined to take over the throne of the world, how can he not emulate the Three Emperors and learn the methods of governing the world through ritual and music?"
Qing Huang deeply agrees with this.
"Although I am not talented, I am willing to emulate the Three Emperors, learn from the teachings of Heaven and Earth, and achieve great joy!"
So Qing Huang decided to travel in search of the sounds of nature.
“Ouch!”
On the green pine tree, the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast jumped down at the right time.
It shrank its body and clung to Qinghuang happily.
Qing Huang smiled, his eyes full of radiance.
"Since you want to follow, then walk for me!"
“Ouch! Ouch!”
The water-avoiding golden-eyed beast roared happily to the sky.
It shook its body and returned to its original shape.
Dragon's mouth, lion's head, fish scales, ox's tail, tiger's claws, deer's antlers.
Covered in colorful auspicious light and stepping on golden auspicious clouds.
This look is quite majestic.
It carries the Green Phoenix around the mountains and rivers.
Not long after the man and the beast left Changliu Mountain, all kinds of mysterious natural phenomena appeared in Xiniu Hezhou.
Strange flowers bloom in the east and strange weeds grow in the south.
Wind and clouds are surging in the west, and immortals are looming in the north.
Even in the sacred land of Mount Lingshan and the Pure Land of Posa, there are Buddhas on earth, Bodhisattvas returning to the Pure Land, and Arhats leaving the Pure Land.
It seems that heaven and earth are helping him.
But in reality, all parties and places are trying their best to attract Qinghuang's attention.
Qing Huang's eyes were crystal clear. She looked around the world, with a faint smile on her lips.
"Tai Sui, just walk around."
Tai Sui heard the order and started to move eastward.
This made all the immortals and gods in the east very excited.
They were in position, either actively or passively anticipating her arrival.
However, just as they were waiting eagerly, Tai Sui suddenly changed his attitude.
"West!"
"Here we go west!"
Cries of surprise rang out from the void, and magical powers burst out like a torrent.
Figures of immortals are transformed in the long river of time and space.
Everyone was scrambling for the chance, afraid of being a step behind.
This one turns into a big tree, that one turns into a bird, you dance gracefully, and I sing loudly.
There are sword sounds that make music, there are bursts of sound from the piano, there are bells and chimes that resound through heaven and earth, and there are pine winds that play the sounds of nature.
Frequent means and tricks are used, just to get a chance.
But Qinghuang turned a deaf ear to all of this.
She rode on the golden-eyed water-avoiding beast and passed by the immortals and gods as if she was just passing by.
Finally, Qing Huang shook his head and sighed.
"Let's go, let's go!"
The divine beast under his seat flew north as instructed.
Only the stimulated immortals and gods were left here, with sadness scattered all over the ground.
Looking at the receding figure of Qing Huang, some immortals sighed: "It is not my destiny, I cannot force it."
So they shook their heads and left.
Some immortals and gods refused to admit defeat and gritted their teeth to catch up.
They each created musical pieces and composed music theories, hoping that Qinghuang would adopt them or use them to generate creative inspiration.
The man and the beast walked and stopped.
The immortals and gods with other thoughts either abandon or leave.
The same is true for the south, north, and south.
However, Qinghuang walked around but didn't get any inspiration from the immortals and gods.
It’s not that their music theory is bad, nor is it that their music is bad.
But neither is suitable.
"Alas~"
Qing Huang sighed and slowly rode the divine beast.
The opportunity has been given.
Since you can't control it, I'll do it myself.
All the immortals and gods who had been competing with each other along the way heard the hidden meaning.
They looked gloomy.
But there is nothing I can do.
"Let's go, let's go!"
They imitated Qing Huang's tone the first time and were quite self-deprecating.
So, most of the immortals left.
There were still some people who had not left, holding their breath and continuing to follow Qinghuang.
They are not determined to seek opportunities.
Rather, I wanted to see what kind of music theory could be worthy of the virtues of the Three Emperors.
So that I can be convinced.
Qing Huang noticed the traces of several immortals and gods, but did not drive them away.
She followed her heart and came to a place called Niuxuan.
There is a strange stone here. The stone is next to the water. The stone can be seen in the water, as if floating in the water.
She used this stone to make a chime and invented a special musical instrument, which she named: Floating Chime.
Qinghuang passed by the bank of Zhishui again.
Twelve drums were erected on both sides of the still water, each of which was engraved with the image of the Phoenix clan.
The sound of the Jian drum is upright and sublime, complementing the Fupan.
These two musical instruments are created by music, conform to the Tao, and integrate with reason.
It can dredge the energy of mountains and rivers and regulate the winds of the eight regions.
The people of Niuxuan and the creatures of Zhishui benefited from this and were all grateful for Qinghuang's kindness.
"In the past, His Majesty the Emperor used the music of the zither to govern the country and bring peace to the people, bringing harmony between heaven and earth. He then ascended Mount Tai and offered sacrifices to heaven and earth, and his name, Taihao, was passed down through the ages.
Now the leader of the Blue Phoenix is to his west. Even though she came later than the Emperor, she has inherited his virtues. Perhaps we can call her 'Shaohao'!"
Qing Huang heard it.
He smiled without saying a word, but just lowered his head and continued to do what he was supposed to do.
She arrived at the land of flowing water and was near the shore of the flood.
When Ming was feeling the heaven and earth, he heard the voices of the Six Phoenixes.
"I see!"
Qing Huang smiled widely, sat on the ground, and comprehended the music theory, correcting the rhythm of the six yangs.
They are: Huang Zhong, Tai Chu, Gu Xi, Rui Bin, Yize and Wang She.
The six tones formed a rhythm, like a mysterious chapter created by heaven, and ripples suddenly arose in the void.
A faint and passionate voice spread out and could be heard from all directions.
Haotian, who was leading his troops in battle, heard the sound of the Six Yangs and smiled. He said to his attendants, "Did you know that this is the leader encouraging us to fight hard and waiting for our victory?"
When the officers and soldiers from various departments heard these words and listened carefully to the wind, they suddenly felt a surge of ambition and passion in their hearts that they wanted to express.
The tribes fighting outside were extremely angry and they were eager to sweep across the world immediately and return victorious.
On the bank of the Lanshui River, several immortals and gods were speechless after hearing the Law of Six Yang.
However, the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast was so happy that it didn't know where to go.
It carried the Green Phoenix and set off happily.
Following his inspiration, Qing Huang came to Pan of Woshui and Pan of Yushui.
She suddenly heard the cry of a female phoenix, using the sound of the six yangs to regulate the rhythm of the six yins.
They are: Jiazhong, Zhonglü, Linzhong, Dalü, Nanlü and Yingzhong.
When the Law of Six Yin is spread, the earth and mountains shake.
A group of earthly immortals came out to pay homage from afar. The underworld appeared faintly, and the ghosts and gods congratulated them.
Upon hearing this sound, Yuan Zhen and Ming He of Chang Liu Mountain burst into laughter. "Six positive and six auxiliary, six yang and six sounds, these twelve musical scales correspond to the laws of nature and astronomy. They are profound and illustrative, and can be called the Great Dao!"
Several immortals who were accompanying him also heard the sound.
They had no more to say.
Six yin and six yang, together make twelve, the sound is cut off from the Western Continent, and the whole world is shocked!
"Yellow bell!"
At this moment, the heavenly sound vibrated.
Qing Huang pointed to the sky and shouted.
The six suns rise, the laws are vast, and a bell falls from the sky.
"Da Lu!"
Qinghuang pointed to the ground and chuckled softly.
The six yin surged, slowly condensed, and a bell appeared on the ground.
Huang Zhong is the first of the six Yang laws.
Its sound is solemn and upright, and it exudes a magnificent power that has the potential to shake the heavens.
Da Lu, the fourth of the six Yin laws.
The sound is sublime and harmonious, condensed into a spiritual treasure, like water mist and smoke rolling back, like clouds and rainbows swaying in the abyss.
Qinghuang takes the exquisiteness of the twelve musical notes.
Holding Huang Zhong in the left hand and Dalü in the right hand, he is like a king who controls the great way.
“Roar!!”
Tai Sui expressed his congratulations, wagging his tail and head, and was extremely happy.
This divine beast is truly a top-notch genius in the ancient world!
Dahe Water Palace.
Yinglong looked at Xizhou, his deep gaze first looked at Qinghuang who caused strange phenomena in heaven and earth, and then fell on Tai Sui.
"This fool is quite clever!"
"It's worth my years of teaching!"
A look of relief flashed in Yinglong's eyes.
Although his own sacred beast was snatched away by Mingyu, Yinglong was still very happy to see Tai Sui get such an opportunity.
After Qing Huang of Creation Music took control of the two treasures and comprehended the great Dao, she slowly woke up from the mysterious realm.
"Boom~"
She casually tied the Huangzhong Dalu on Tai Sui 's head.
Then, with the auspicious sign of the phoenix, he crossed the Yongshui, Weishui and Feishui rivers.
She listened to the sound of the unfathomable spring, felt something in her heart, and enjoyed herself generously!
This music harmonizes the changes of heaven and earth, and harmonizes the relationship between humans and gods, and between the upper and lower classes.
Because the Blue Phoenix experienced nine waters, it was called "Jiuyuan".
After the music was completed, it spread to all corners of the country and even reached the imperial capital.
When Emperor Huangdi heard this, he was deeply grateful. He quickly summoned the great musician Ling Lun to the court to compose the song "Jiuyuan".
Ling Lunbai said: "The music of the Western Lord is so astonishing that it can be used for sacrifices to suburban temples, banquets at court meetings, and to correct the customs of the people!"
Xuanyuan was overjoyed.
He pointed to Xizhou and said to Cangjie, Li Mu, Changxian and others around him: "When we can be free and at ease, we are counting on her."
Chang Xian shook his head and said with a smile: "Regardless of whether it is free or not, I have been monitoring the major tribes and surrounding states and have discovered a major event. Perhaps we can count on the Western Lord to handle it."
Xuanyuan asked in confusion, "What kind of big deal is this?"
"The Pili Rebellion!"
Chang Xian whispered four words, and the secret suddenly became clear.
Cangjie, Li Mu, Linglun and even Xuanyuan all frowned.
The Emperor was majestic without being angry, and he just called out.
"Bring me my mirror!"
Above the imperial city, a divine general bowed his head and presented a mirror.
Xuanyuan stretched out his hand and illuminated the southwest.
It doesn't matter if you don't read it, but once you do, it will make the emperor and his ministers angry.
However, it was the Pili clan, who lived near Jambudvīpa, who were instructed by an unknown entity to establish themselves in the abyss of the southwest sea and open up a fiefdom.
He subdued the various barbarian tribes in the southwest, started suburban meditation in the Ganquan wilderness, worshipped the five sacrifices, and built a capital city.
This is an act of dividing the land and rebelling against the central government!
"What a courage!"
The sound was as cold as the deep sea black ice that had existed for billions of years.
The Human Emperor was enraged, and his mighty divine power was released, causing heaven and earth to tremble.
Xuanyuan waved his sleeves, and twelve divine mirrors suddenly rose into the sky, illuminating the entire world.
The innate saints all frowned, and the low-level immortals were terrified.
On the top of Mount Tai, in the Qingdi Garden, Fuxi cast his gaze.
On the peak of Nanyue Mountain, at the palace of Emperor Yan, Shennong shook his head slightly.
"Run away?"
Xuanyuan used the magic mirror to see through time and space, and saw through everything. He noticed that a vague figure had escaped from the prehistoric world early.
"Is it the method of the outer demon?"
Beside Xuanyuan, Cangjie asked.
There are only a few people in the entire prehistoric world who can interfere with the Human Emperor in this world.
And the few who can do it have no reason to do it.
Xuanyuan waved his hand and pushed the Twelve Divine Mirrors out, nodded, and said, "It seems that more than one demon god has successfully sneaked across."
"Is this the devil causing trouble?"
Chang Xian, who had a smile on his face just now, now had a very dark face.
He went there himself, only to see the chaos and not the underlying problem. He even wanted to recommend Qing Huang to go there to gain some merit...
"What's coming will come. It's not your fault, my dear supervisor. Am I not also deceived?"
Xuanyuan comforted Chang Xian: "Besides, if you hadn't monitored the world and noticed the disaster in the southwest, how could I have known the truth behind it?"
"Your Majesty, can you allow Li Mu to go to the southwest to fight against the rebels?"
General Li Mu took the initiative and was willing to be summoned to go south.
Perhaps he also felt that the Qiongsang tribe, which had just begun to develop, should not be a match for the Pili clan.
But Xuanyuan shook his head and said with a smile: "You, have fought for half your life, and you still haven't had enough? Let the younger generation deal with these troubles!"
Li Mu was about to speak when Cang Jie said to him with a smile, "Don't worry, you know the backgrounds of these people. And the one led by Qiong Sang, don't tell me you didn't recognize him."
Li Mu stopped talking.
Ling Lun asked, "This time, the demon god caused chaos, and the mastermind escaped. It's inevitable that it will happen again in the future. Shouldn't we agree on a strategy to prevent it?"
"There's no need to do that. It's impossible to prevent it."
Xuanyuan chuckled and looked up. "He let it in, how could you prevent it?"
Disrupting order and stirring up unrest, this level of means was not only looked down upon by the Taoist Ancestor, but even several saints did not take it seriously.
Otherwise, why would Emperor Fuxi, who sits on Mount Tai, remain silent?
"But I still have to let out this anger!"
The retired Fuxi can let it go, since he is not the one with the headache anyway.
Xuanyuan, who was in charge of the world at that time, was disgusted.
"Issue an order to Xizhou to annihilate Pili."
Xuanyuan handed the Seal of the Human Emperor to Cangjie.
Cang Jie didn't answer, but stared at Xuanyuan and asked, "Your Majesty, where are you going?"
"Go west, pull out some nails, and find a helper."
Xuanyuan drew his sword and struck the air, then stepped into time and left.
"Do you really think I, Xuanyuan, am going to retire and not take care of things?"
"Still want to run?!"
