Journey to the West, there are nine golden crows in me

Chapter 774 The Precious Yin God

Naturally, the Heavenly Court was not reconciled to the underworld being occupied by Buddhism, so these two major forces started a protracted power struggle around the underworld.

The main reason why the underworld is so chaotic and the top levels change frequently is because of the struggle between the heavenly court and the Buddhist sect.

People from the Buddhist sect will face the opposition of the heavenly court if they take power. On the contrary, if the people from the heavenly court take power, they will face the opposition from the Buddhist sect. Under such circumstances, who can last long?
"Recently, the situation in the underworld has stabilized a lot, and it's probably all due to me."

Withdrawing his gaze, the strange look on Jiang Chen's face remained undiminished.

The underworld has been very stable recently, very stable, the heaven seems to have ignored the underworld, and the Buddhist sect has even ignored the underworld, so that no one disturbed the underworld, instead it fell into a long-lost peace.

And this, in the final analysis, is Jiang Chen's credit.

Because of Jiang Chen's plan to destroy the false Buddha in Lingshan, the Buddhism completely lost power in the underworld, and the Heavenly Court thus gained the upper hand.

However, here comes the problem. Apart from being the new master of Buddhism, Jiang Chen is also a giant in the heavenly court. To some extent, Jiang Chen can be called the third person in the heavenly court.

The Jade Emperor is the eldest, the Queen Mother is the second, and Jiang Chen is the third.

The reason is simple because, apart from the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, only Jiang Chen can move the gods in heaven.Therefore, Jiang Chen's official position in the Heavenly Court may not be the third largest, but his power is definitely the third largest.

Jiang Chen was so powerful that all giants in the heavenly court did not dare to touch the authority of the underworld for a while before Jiang Chen made a clear statement of his attitude because they did not dare to offend him.

The two ruling powers of the Buddhist Heavenly Court dare not get involved in the underworld, and the rest of the powers naturally dare not.

It was under such weird circumstances that the underworld ushered in a long-lost peace, and the top ten Yamas performed their duties to keep the underworld running in an orderly manner.

Well, it can even be said that since Yan Luo of the Tenth Hall took office, he has never been so dedicated to his duties, not to mention rewards and punishments, and even more selfish.

Yama of the Ten Temples can't help it. No one pays attention to them, but it doesn't mean they are safe. This may be the calm before the storm.

I don't know how many people are staring at them secretly. Once the situation changes, the ten of them are likely to bear the brunt and become cannon fodder.

Worried about his death being unclear, Yama of the Tenth Palace naturally wanted to show off himself at this time, so as to gain some merit and save his life at a critical moment.

One of the biggest benefits of being an immortal is that as long as one does one's job well, one can receive merit, which is equivalent to a salary from the Dao of Heaven.

Why do many low-level immortals like to be immortals and work in the heavenly court?The purpose is to seek merit.

Among the gods, especially the gods in the underworld are the easiest to gain merit.Yama of the Ten Palaces is in charge of reincarnation in the underworld, which is very important. As long as you do well, you can get a lot of merit every day.

Basically, if Ge fulfilled his duties for tens of thousands of years, the merits he gained would be enough to push Yama of the Ten Temples to the realm of Xiantian Daojun.If one has dedicated one million years to one's duty, it is not difficult to become a Xiantian Daoist.

This is the Xiantian Daoist who proved the Tao through merit and virtue, and his status is very noble. When the quasi-sage sees him, he will call his fellow Taoists, and the saint will treat him with courtesy when he sees him.

In the ancient times, when Empress Hou Tu was in charge of the reincarnation of heaven and earth, although there was no Yan Luo judge or anything, there were similar positions, and they were all extremely noble gods.

It can be said that for these gods, even the great supernatural beings of the Taoist sect are very jealous.Even saints can't guarantee that their disciples can cultivate to the realm of innate Taoist priests.Therefore, many great supernatural beings have secretly begged for favors from Empress Houtu in order to secure a future for their disciples.

Merits are of no use to the Wu Clan. Faced with the entreaties of great supernatural beings, Empress Hou Tu didn't refuse, and directly gave away these gods.

The consequence of this incident was that many people with great supernatural powers owed favors to Empress Houtu. Later, Empress Houtu was popular and famous, not necessarily without this reason.

It was not until the world changed drastically that Empress Hou Tu escaped from the world, and this situation ended.

The position of Yan Luo in the ten halls is so important, and he is the most noble official in the world. Logically speaking, everyone should rush to take the position, but now, he has become the most indecent official. It can only be said, The times have changed, the world is getting worse, and people's hearts are not as pure as before.

Before and after the Tu Niang Niang was in power, who would dare to stretch out her hand to interfere with the operation of reincarnation?Don't die?Therefore, the Yin God of the underworld can enforce the law impartially with peace of mind, and can reap a lot of merit every day.

Later, when the underworld came to power, it was only a management organization under the jurisdiction of the heavenly court, and the heavenly court could not deter the Three Realms, let alone the underworld.Therefore, all forces have intervened in reincarnation affairs to seek benefits for themselves.

The strength of the underworld is low, and they dare not refuse requests from various forces. As a result, the majesty of the underworld has been lost, and they can no longer enforce the law impartially. Stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods.

The status of the yin gods of the underworld has fallen from being higher than the gods to being lower than the gods. The simple summary is that the backstage is not good!

The way of heaven is fair, gods do a good job, they can get merit, and the same reason, if they do not do well, they will be punished.The more you take, the more you will be punished.

Yama of the Ten Temples controls the reincarnation of all things, and has great authority. If you do well, you will naturally have immeasurable merits. In the future, you will be expected to be a congenital Daoist. If you don't do well, you will end up forever.

Since the establishment of the underworld, none of the ten halls of Yama in the past has been selfish. Therefore, few of the ten halls of Yama can end well.

This is exactly the cycle of karma, and the retribution is not good.

……

…………

"The underworld is in charge of the reincarnation of living beings. How important it is. If this chaos continues, it will be of no benefit to heaven, earth, or people."

"If I am in power in the future, I will definitely re-establish the order of the underworld, reinvigorate the majesty of the underworld, and implement the word Zhigong!"

Since he aspired to become the Great Emperor of Fengdu, Jiang Chen naturally couldn't understand the performance of the underworld, and secretly made up his mind that when he had time, he must organize the underworld well. Among other things, the minimum fairness must be achieved.

The reason why the way of heaven is supreme is because he is impartial and selfless.However, that was the way of heaven very long ago. Unless the world is about to be destroyed, the way of heaven basically does not exist in this world.

It was only later that Daoist Hongjun joined the Tao and replaced Tianxin with his own heart, which made a little change in the way of heaven.Fairness is still fair, but it is not as pure as before.

The way of heaven is fair, how can there be a distinction between good and evil?
It was Hongjun Daozu who united with the Dao that made the way of heaven have good and evil, but this is not the good and evil of the way of heaven, but the good and evil produced by the influence of the Taoist ancestor.

Therefore, many people don't say it, but they can't help muttering in their hearts. After the Taoist ancestor joined the Tao, is the way of heaven really impartial and selfless?
However, in any case, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages for Taoist ancestors to unite.The creatures in the world all want to inherit the love of the Taoist ancestor.

If the Dao ancestors did not unite with the Dao and let the Dao of Heaven have a distinction between good and evil, the Dao of Heaven would not care about those with strong cultivation bases wantonly slaughtering weak creatures.

The world is not benevolent, and treats everything as a straw dog.Therefore, if the strong ants kill the weak ones, why should the law of heaven care?The left and right are just ants, and there is no difference in the eyes of heaven.

It was the Dao ancestors who joined the Tao, and this led to the appearance of Heaven's Punishment and Heaven's Scourge, which restricted the monks so that they did not dare to wantonly harm living beings.

This is the greatness of Daozu!

Daozu is great not because he is the strongest, but because he has great compassion.Great strength can only make people awe, not respect.People in the world respect Taoist ancestors because they are grateful for his virtue.

From a certain point of view, it is precisely because Daozu is selfless that he will join the Tao.Otherwise, wouldn't it be good for him to be a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian who is detached from the world?

It should be noted that Dao Patriarch is different from the Six Sages. He is a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal first, and then a saint.The Six Sages are the other way around, they become saints first, and then they become Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

That is to say, Daoist Hongjun had a choice and could refuse to become a saint.And the six sages had no choice but to become saints.

……

The way of heaven lasts forever because of the righteousness, and the ancestors of Taoism last forever because of selflessness.It can be said that selflessness is the foundation of eternal life.

If the underworld wants to return to its peak, it must be impartial and selfless.How a living being reincarnates depends entirely on how much meritorious service he has achieved in his lifetime, not on who has a big background.

Of course, this is also the merit of Daozu.Before Daozu, the quality of a person did not lie in what he did, but in how much spiritual energy he absorbed.The more aura absorbed, the greater the sin.

After Taoist ancestors, commenting on a person's good or bad has become the amount of merit.

Both have advantages and disadvantages, but for ordinary people, the latter is obviously preferred.After all, people with a lot of merit will basically not kill innocent people indiscriminately.

"If the underworld can be fair, then the Yin gods can go back to their origin and become the most noble officials in the world. At that time, a large number of masters will emerge."

It is not without reason that Jiang Chen attaches great importance to the underworld. He has seen the potential of the underworld. As long as the underworld can be traced back to its source and be relatively fair, it will become a huge merit maker.

Every million years, the underworld can create several innate Taoist priests who have proved the Tao with merit.Such a place is so important, whoever can master it will really take advantage of it.

The reason why Heavenly Court and Buddhism compete for the control of the underworld is because they see the benefits of controlling the underworld, which can generate a lot of merit.Why the management of the underworld is so chaotic can be said to be deliberately created by the two forces.

The purpose is to prevent the other party from benefiting, so as to monopolize the benefits brought by the underworld.When a certain force completely controls the situation in the underworld, it will immediately set things right and make the underworld fair again.

The underworld is not fair, where is the merit?
"It's all benefits!"

"The prosperity of the world is all for profit, and the chaos of the world is for profit. Taishi Gongcheng will not deceive me!"

Looking around, Jiang Chen saw the intrigue surrounding the underworld, the purpose of which was to compete for the benefits generated by the underworld.

If they are only fighting for their own interests, there is nothing to say, it is human nature, but when their struggle is at the cost of harming the interests of the world, then it is their fault.

Injustice in the underworld will do great harm to heaven and earth.

Where there is injustice, there will be resentment!
After the death of all living beings in heaven and earth, their souls all return to the underworld. If one or two people have grievances, that's not a big problem.But if there are more resentful souls, it will be a big deal.

If there is too much resentment, the Dao of Heaven must feel it, and thus calamity will come.

Jiang Chen can be sure that if Heavenly Court and Buddhism continue to compete for power like this, they will definitely pay the price in the future. Perhaps, in the near future, a catastrophe will erupt in the Netherworld, and the goal of this catastrophe is Heaven and Buddhism. Buddhism!
"If the situation in the underworld is not stopped, the Jade Emperor may still be in danger of falling in the future, and Buddhism is not as good as the Heavenly Court, so I am afraid that it will fall."

Jiang Chen has recently made a small success, and has a deeper grasp of the future changes. He vaguely seems to have realized the true meaning of the catastrophe, and has seen the bitter fruit brewed by the continued deterioration of the underworld.

The Emperor of Heaven lost his virtue and was robbed again;
Buddhism fell, once fell.

This is the backlash of countless dead souls!
"Why do I feel that the Jade Emperor seems to have done it on purpose? He deliberately made the situation in the underworld worse..."

At this time, Jiang Chen only hated that his cultivation base was not enough, and he hadn't comprehended Dayan's magic calculation, otherwise, his grasp of the future would be more accurate, and now he is not doubting, but affirming.

The Jade Emperor was far above Jiang Chen in terms of cultivation and knowledge.Therefore, it doesn't make sense that Jade Emperor can't see what Jiang Chen can see.And he saw it, but he didn't care.

This is intriguing.

Is it self-confidence that the disaster of the underworld will not hurt him, or is it intentional to strengthen the disaster of the underworld so as to drag himself into the abyss?

Jiang Chen's suspicion was not unfounded.However, Xing Tian said that the Jade Emperor's calamity has not been completed, and he still needs to reincarnate into the world to make up for the missing calamity.

But the Jade Emperor has already fallen once, who will kill him a second time?Moreover, the Jade Emperor's cultivation base is even better than before, infinitely close to Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, who can kill him?
Therefore, in this case, Jiang Chen had reason to suspect that it was not that the Jade Emperor could not foresee the calamity in the underworld, but that he had foreseen it and didn't want to care about it.

The so-called break and then build, nothing more!

"I'm going to see Empress Houtu soon, so I can ask her for advice. I can't see Jade Emperor's plan. Her old man's cultivation is Tongxuan, so it's possible that she can't see it."

Calming down, Jiang Chen felt that if he found an opportunity, he could ask Empress Houtu about this matter, otherwise, no matter how he guessed, he would not be able to get the correct answer.

Jiang Chen was very curious about this answer, because it related to his future plans.Since he aspired to become the Emperor of Heaven, his future was destined to be the enemy of the Jade Emperor.

Knowing that he was an opponent, Jiang Chen naturally had to pay close attention to Jade Emperor's plan.If he really wanted to die, then the problem would be much simpler.

An enemy who wants to die is much easier to deal with than an enemy who wants to live.

He wants to die, and he wants to be fulfilled.Maybe, at that time, the Jade Emperor might not even resist, and Jiang Chen killed him if he pushed the boat along.
