Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 558: It’s him, it’s him, our Black Emperor…
This chapter is also called [Gift from Nature! ]
Xuanyuan: My son Changyi doesn't have the qualities to be an emperor!
Mingyu: I have good news and bad news...
…
Huangdi Xuanyuan traveled around time and space and returned to Xuanyuan Terrace.
Lu Wu, who was in charge of monitoring all states and supervising the construction of the emperor's gardens, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, you are finally back!"
Lu Wu asked Xuanyuan to inspect the results.
Looking out, a thousand peaks resemble spears, ten thousand feet spread out like screens, the sun reflects the mist light and locks the green. White clouds float like jade, the light shakes the wisps of smoke and haze; looking closely, the empty window is quiet, and the sliding bench is blooming. Dragon pearls hang in the cave, and the ground is covered with exotic flowers;
There are mists and clouds condensing into auspicious haze, and the sun and moon emitting auspicious light. There are old cypresses green and mountain mists, like the autumn water and the vast sky; wild flowers are as red as the morning glow, like green peaches and red apricots, all fragrant, swirling colors, all are the brilliance of morality flying in the purple mist; the smoke is ethereal, all emitting clear fragrance from the innate infinite.
They passed by the Pearl Palace and the Shell Pavilion, each palace and hall had golden beasts on its ridges and jade unicorns on its pillars; passing by pavilions and flower gardens, they saw famous flowers that never faded for thousands of years and precious medicines that were evergreen for ten thousand years.
There are truly countless rare and precious spiritual plants.
"Fellow Daoist, thank you for your hard work!"
Xuanyuan was very satisfied with the imperial garden supervised by Luwu.
He looked Lu Wu up and down, his admiration undisguised.
"Fellow Daoist, are you interested in coming to the imperial capital to take up a position or two?"
The more Xuanyuan looked at Luwu, the more satisfied he became. He could not only monitor all nations but also control the seasons. He looked good and had powerful fighting power. He was truly an all-round butler.
He was moved!
As for Xuanyuan's recruitment, it would be a lie for Lu Wu to say that he was not tempted.
With the great era of humanity ahead of us, who wouldn’t want to get a position or two among the human race to gain luck and merit?
But he still rejected Xuanyuan's kindness.
Xuanyuan felt sorry about this, but still came up with an idea, asking him to follow the Western Lord Baidi and work hard.
Anyway, the Imperial Garden was originally given to the White Emperor.
It comes with an all-round beast, right?
"Fellow Daoist, Kunlun Ruins connects to the Nine Heavens above and the myriad nations below. It's not far from the Imperial Gardens either. Since you don't want to go to the Imperial Capital, how about you consider this place as well?"
"In charge of the Imperial Garden?"
Having said that, Lu Wu hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
In his opinion, since he was already managing the Queen's Jade Mountain, it would be no big deal to help Baidi manage another garden.
Xuanyuan was very happy.
Then, he asked Lu Wu to register with Baidi and show his face, while returning to Xiling Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, you're back so early?"
Princess Leizu knew Xuanyuan's movements.
Xuanyuan recounted his experiences in detail to his wife, Yuan Fei, and then said to her, "I have toiled long and hard in the world. Now I will travel the wilderness to return to my true self. Will you follow me, my beloved wife?"
Princess Leizu's beautiful eyes flashed and she smiled and replied, "Yes!"
So the emperor took his concubine Yuan to travel around the world.
They climbed Mount Shouyang, mined copper and cast a tripod.
"Your Majesty, are you casting the cauldron for the purpose of refining elixirs?"
Leizu looked at Xuanyuan with curiosity.
"A loving wife understands me!"
Xuanyuan pointed at the jade slip in his hand and said with a smile, "I originally wanted to visit the Great Purity Saint, but on the way I found a scroll of alchemy recipes. It even recorded the method of refining the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill. Isn't it amazing?"
Leizu blinked her eyes, looked at the sky in a naive manner, and then looked at Xuanyuan.
“It’s amazing!”
Does this count as the Human Emperor robbing the leader of the Human Religion?
Xuanyuan took Yuanfei to collect some rare treasures, and then went to Jingshan to make elixirs.
The almighty Human Emperor was refining the Nine-Transformation Golden Elixir as if he were assisted by a god.
No, it should be said that it was with the help of God.
Because the Human Emperor was refining a pill, the Supreme Lord of the Great Red Sky was a little restless.
He did not deny the talent of the Human Emperor.
But you should at least be reliable. Do you think you can refine the Nine-Turn Golden Pill by just picking up some rare treasures?
Aren't you destroying my sign?
Tai Shang sighed and pointed his finger. The Bagua Furnace opened and the light shot up into the sky, straight into the Milky Way and covered a star.
The stars gradually fell, but they turned into fireballs shaped like the sun. They were scorching and terrifying, and so big that they seemed to fill the four continents. The surrounding space was distorted and collapsed, and there seemed to be golden crows flying around inside.
The master pointed again, and the stove lid closed, and there was no sound inside.
He closed his eyes again, neither sad nor happy, as if nothing outside could disturb him anymore, and it would remain unchanged for hundreds, thousands, or even ten thousand years.
In Jingshan, a dusty old man in gray clothes appeared in front of Xuanyuan.
"Poor Taoist Xuanzi!"
Xuanyuan looked at the old Taoist who called himself Xuanzi, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Fellow Daoist Xuanzi, do you have any advice for me?"
Xuan Zi bowed his head and said, "I don't deserve your guidance. I just saw that the Human Emperor wanted to refine the precious elixir, so I came to observe. I hope the Human Emperor will not mind."
"Oh, so it's the apprentice teacher. I understand, I understand!"
Xuanyuan looked as if he had suddenly understood something.
Xuan Zi's face twitched.
"Fellow Daoist, please feel free to take a look!" Xuanyuan generously invited Xuanzi to his alchemy room.
Xuan Zi looked at the copper cauldron of Shouyang, took a deep breath, and asked, "If the Human Emperor wants to refine the Nine Transformations Golden Elixir, why doesn't he use a Bagua furnace?"
"The Eight Trigrams Furnace is an essential artifact for refining the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill!"
I've given you the instructions, don't you want to read them?
"Hey, fellow Daoist, you don't understand this!"
Xuanyuan said, "It is the tripod, the essence of the divine nature."
"It knows good and bad, life and death, can be light and heavy, can rest and move, can boil without burning, can be full without drawing, and produces the five flavors within. It is truly a divine object."
"They are all divine tools, why can't they be used to make elixirs?"
Xuan Zi remained silent.
Then he saw his hands rubbing the divine fire.
"Wait, what kind of fire is this?" Xuanzi quickly stopped him.
Xuanyuan replied: "The flame of humanity!"
Xuan Zi was speechless.
He said tactfully, "How can a mere Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir be fueled by humanity?"
"Let me do it. I just happened to have collected some of the Six Dings and Six Jias' Fire, so I can lend a helping hand to the Human Emperor!"
As he spoke, the void shook, as if streams of molten iron were flowing through space and time, illuminating the heaven and earth.
At this time, runes condensed in the alchemy place, and then, in the furnace that gradually intertwined, they faintly showed the shape of the Eight Diagrams.
Xuanyuan saw this and praised him, "You are learning really fast, you have almost caught up with me!"
Xuan Zi's breath stagnated.
Who are you insulting here?
But in the blink of an eye, he saw Xuanyuan starting to add all sorts of random materials.
Xuanzi's eyelids twitched wildly: "Your Majesty, this Nine Revolutions Golden Pill isn't made with these ingredients, right?"
Xuanyuan patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, fellow Daoist. I have consulted a top-level ancient alchemy recipe. I am already a master of alchemy. Could it be that fellow Daoist knows more about alchemy than I do?"
I don’t understand as well as you!
Xuan Zi pinched his whisk and said with a forced smile: "Well, where did His Majesty the Human Emperor see the recipe? Can I borrow it to take a look?"
We have to destroy all traces quickly, otherwise everyone will know that Xuanyuan learned his skills from Tai Shang.
Xuanyuan narrowed his eyes at this time, and became alert, as if he was afraid that Xuanzi would steal the treasure, and said: "This is a very serious matter, and we need to make an alliance to warn him."
I think I have to swear on my own?
Xuan Zi was very depressed, "What oath did we swear?"
Xuanyuan said confidently: "Look at this recipe and help me make a furnace of pills!"
Why don't you go and rob?
Xuan Zi was dumbfounded.
But thinking that the scripture only contained 108 recipes for elixirs, he accepted it with a pinch of his nose.
One hundred and eight furnaces, not too many!
Xuan Zi gritted his teeth and swore an oath.
Then Xuanyuan handed him 108 jade slips, which contained 18,000 kinds of elixir recipes...
"Where did you get so much?"
Xuan Zi was stunned on the spot.
Will my pill recipe make me give birth to a baby?
How come I don’t know?!
Xuanyuan replied seriously, "As a Grand Master of Alchemy, it's reasonable for you to have 18,000 recipes, right?"
This is the crystallization of the wisdom of three generations of emperors and sages of the human race!
Eighteen thousand is not enough.
At this time, Xuan Zi was holding more than ten thousand pill prescriptions, and he had a headache, toothache, heartache, and liverache!
He finally understood that the Human Emperor was not trying to make pills, he was fishing!
No wonder it was me who came down.
"Hey, Human Emperor, tell me, where do you need me to go?"
Xuanzi sighed and put the pill recipe into his sleeve, agreeing to Xuanyuan's request.
Xuanyuan bowed his head and said, "Please go to the west."
"The west?"
Xuan Zi looked at Xuan Yuan in surprise and nodded silently.
He paused before leaving.
"Refine this pill carefully!"
"I know more about alchemy than you do!"
Xuan Zi looked at the alchemy cauldron that was about to explode, his eyes twitched, and he waved his sleeves to cast a ray of golden light into it.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"
Xuanyuan Li saw Xuan Zi off.
After refining a furnace of golden elixir, Xuanyuan happily continued to travel with Yuanfei.
They traveled as far south as Hengshan Mountain and as far east as Taishan Mountain, and traveled overseas to various holy places.
On the way, Xuanyuan hid part of the inheritance in Jiuning Mountain, waiting for the right person.
Its name is "Wei Yu", which means it is supported by patterned jade and covered by flat stone.
The book, written in gold and jade characters, contains scriptures about the mechanisms of heaven and earth.
Princess Yuan also felt like playing.
She hid her magical treasures, the Five Talismans, and the golden tablets in the Wewan Mountains.
The two of them had a lot of fun searching for treasure along the way.
At that time, a fragrant breeze came from the Western Continent, and gods and people gathered together, creating an unprecedented grand occasion.
Xuanyuan and Princess Yuan went there.
He left behind three treasures: the crown, the sword, and the pendant, and placed them in Dinghu Lake.
This went on for 30,000 years, and after Xuanzi, immortals and gods went to Xizhou one after another to support Baidi.
Among them, Tian Gang, Mu Qing, Chi Ming, Jin Jing and Shui Qing are the most outstanding.
Help Baidi to manage the five directions.
Baidi was almost going crazy with joy at this moment.
Transforming Xiniu Hezhou and creating the world is the real task.
She is now in the critical period of construction, and as a result, there are batches of leeks after batches of... no, it is talents that flock to Xizhou.
How could Baidi not be happy?
“Thank you for the gift of nature!”
Baidi has recruited a group of technical talents, and the plan to build Xizhou is about to be completed. She has gathered a group of wise ministers to organize team building in Changliu Mountain.
At the banquet.
Yuan Zhen, Damo, Minghe and Qing Qian looked at Xuan Zi who was silent in front of them, and they couldn't hide the smiles on their faces.
“Thank you for the gift of nature!”
The four of them raised their glasses to celebrate, and Xuanzi's face turned even darker.
…
"Your Majesty, if you want to help the Western Lord, a transfer order would suffice. Why go to all this trouble?"
Princess Leizu was somewhat puzzled when she saw Xuanyuan occasionally cheating on a few big guys and then sending them to Xizhou.
"Hey, my dear wife, you don't understand this. I'm just preparing for my retirement!" Xuanyuan looked worried, "You don't know how wicked those old guys are!
Now, before you step down, you should practice with some immortals and gods and get used to retirement life in advance, otherwise you will become the laughing stock of a bunch of fun gods sooner or later! "
Xuanyuan followed Mingyu to see all kinds of time and space, and truly understood what these fun gods were like.
If he wants to fit in, he is still too naive.
"Really?"
Princess Yuan opened her mouth slightly, a smile in her eyes.
It was hard for her to imagine Xuanyuan being cheated by others.
If so, it would be hilarious!
Looking at his own Princess Yuan's expression as if she was waiting to see some melons, Xuanyuan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Of course, this is not the only reason."
Xuanyuan propped his chin with his hand and said thoughtfully, "Actually, I have a feeling that the Black Emperor and I are destined to be together."
"The Black Emperor?" Yuan Fei Leizu frowned. "Isn't Your Majesty still in office? The White Emperor is not even close to achieving sainthood, so the Black Emperor wouldn't be born so soon, right?"
Xuanyuan shook his head: "Black Emperor, his era is a bit special. If he hadn't been born earlier, he might not have had a developmental period."
"That would be disastrous!"
When Xuanyuan thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for the Black Emperor.
"But didn't Your Majesty say that you were responsible for some of the Black Emperor's burden?" Princess Leizu suddenly added.
“Cough cough cough~~”
Xuanyuan was a little embarrassed and glared at Leizu.
Leizu puffed out her cheeks and glared back, not wanting to be outdone.
Xuanyuan said helplessly: "My beloved wife is right!"
"So we should keep walking and see, maybe we can find him somewhere!"
Anyway, since Xuanyuan made his debut, all the ministers and generals were picked up along the way.
Including someone's spiritual fruit.
So, the two of them continued on their journey.
One after another, I found a group of very talented gods such as Chongli, Lihei, etc. Oh no, they are talents!
A great talent of the human race!
These were all packed up and taken to Xizhou.
Until they arrived at the country of Chaoyun, east of the quicksand and west of the black water.
Leizu was pregnant.
"What a coincidence?"
Xuanyuan looked at the sky, the earth, and then at Princess Yuan.
I feel numb.
"Chang Yi!"
Xuanyuan's face was darker than the black water.
He said to his first wife, Lei Zu: "My dear wife, our child will be named Changyi!"
What Black Emperor, what does it have to do with my Ji family?
My son Changyi does not have the qualities to be an emperor!
Leizu, a new mother, had blank eyes and a confused mind at this time.
The delicate face looks a little innocent.
She is very distressed.
Although I don't mind eating my husband's melon, but now...
"Our family won't produce another emperor, right?"
As the empress of the human race, Leizu felt very guilty when she said this.
Because she could clearly feel that her own luck was growing.
Xuanyuan was speechless.
He was away for nine days.
Afterwards, Emperor Changsheng came to Chaoyun Kingdom with him.
Feeling another breath of life from Leizu, the Emperor Changsheng looked solemn.
"How about it?"
Xuanyuan was nervous .
"I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" said the Emperor Changsheng.
Xuanyuan sighed: "Let me tell you the good news first."
The Great Emperor Changsheng nodded and said, "The good news is that your son Changyi will not become the Black Emperor!"
“It’s okay, it’s okay!”
Xuanyuan felt relieved.
"What's the bad news?" Princess Leizu asked hurriedly.
The eyes of the Changsheng Emperor flickered, and he looked at Xuanyuan: "If I am not mistaken, Changyi's luck is invaluable."
"Nonsense, my son, of course he has extraordinary luck!"
Xuanyuan rolled his eyes in annoyance. What kind of bad news is this? It scared me.
"What I mean is that his fortune is not due to his father's status, but..."
The Great Emperor Changsheng shook his head and uttered four words: "A father's honor depends on his son!"
"ah?!!"
