Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 721: The First Emperor, the Jade Emperor Meets the Tianpeng

Time just passes slowly like this.

The various princes in the world are becoming more and more powerful.

As the authority of the king was further deprived, wars between the princes became more frequent and more brutal.

The secret of hegemony that King Xiong Xin of Chu had comprehended also dissipated with the passage of time, and finally, the hegemony of Chu also turned into nothingness.

On earth, a new overlord rises.

What followed was a terrible struggle among the wise men over their own doctrines.

After Ao Bing left this world, the progress of the entire world seemed to have accelerated suddenly.

The wars between the princes directly crossed the bottom line between each other and turned the wars into bloodshed.

The weak princes had their countries destroyed and died, and even their ancestral temples were turned into dust in the fighting.

And those immortal sects that participated in the disputes among the world and became increasingly closely bound to the princes in various places were also destroyed in large numbers.

Even those water gods who had never participated in human disputes in the past were defeated again and again in the fighting among the princes.

Later on, the position of Water God, which was originally sought after by countless immortals and gods, has become a hot potato, making all the immortals and gods avoid it.

In this unprecedented conquest and chaos, among the only seven remaining vassal states, almost every one of them had the possibility of unification - almost all the immortals and gods could feel that the energy of the Human King was being nurtured among these seven vassal states.

During these conquests, when countless sects perished, countless powerful men also rose up.

It was at this time that the Water Deity Star God, who had been hiding in the Qin State, finally persuaded the other four star gods and then appeared in front of the Qin royal family.

"The Qin State is the descendant of E Lai, the remnant of the Shang Dynasty."

"Although I am a god, I was once a minister of the Shang Dynasty. But your ancestors, Fei Lian and E Lai, have a very close relationship with me."

"It would be fine if the Qin State was just an ordinary state."

"But now that Qin has the potential to become a king, I will naturally not hesitate to work hard for you."

The Water Virtue Star God said to this generation of King Qin.

"Just do it with confidence, and fight with confidence."

"When the Shang and Zhou dynasties fought, the Ji Zhou dynasty replaced the Yin and Shang dynasties - but that doesn't mean the Yin and Shang dynasties lost."

"Many former ministers of the Shang Dynasty were enshrined in heaven and listed as respected gods."

"Their relationship with the Shang Dynasty has always been there!"

"If the Qin State can follow the mysterious destiny of the Shang Dynasty and take back the Dao of the Human King from the hands of Ji Zhou, everyone will support you."

"They will all stand on your side." said Lu Xiong, the God of Water.

Opposite him, the King of Qin was also hesitating.

Seven princes who have the potential to become the King of Man - but each prince's chance of becoming the King of Man is different.

Among the princes, Qin and Chu, the two countries with the lowest probability of succeeding the throne are the kings.

After all, the Qin State was the descendant of the Shang Dynasty.

The relationship between the State of Chu and the demon tribe is too close.

They want to unify the human race, so the difficulty is naturally greater than that of other princes.

This has been proven in the previous hegemony - the hegemony of Chu and Qin was continuous, and the strength of these two hegemons was also the strongest, but at the same time, the position of hegemony was the most unstable.

Therefore, no one in the Qin State was enthusiastic about unifying the human race.

But now, these words from the God of Water Virtue have given rise to endless ambitions in the hearts of this generation of the Qin State.

Heaven and man, while in opposition, are also one - when other immortals and gods in heaven were still thinking about how to make their move among the princes, those immortals and gods related to the Shang Dynasty suddenly joined forces to place their bet on the Qin State.

This is enough to affect the balance between the seven countries.

As for matters like fighting for the throne and conquering the world, they have always been done step by step quickly.

As long as Qin can gain momentum first...

"This is why we chose Qin." At the same time, the Daluo between heaven and earth were also communicating with each other.

They chose Qin not just because of the trend passed down from past generations.

More importantly, it is because of the situation in heaven.

Because of the aftermath of the war between Shang and Zhou.

In the war between Shang and Zhou, although Ji Zhou replaced Yin Shang, this did not mean the failure of Yin Shang - many of Yin Shang's former ministers came to heaven and became gods in heaven.

During this long period of time, the righteous gods of the Shang Dynasty, while observing the changes in heaven and earth, became increasingly aware of Emperor Xin's "correctness."

Therefore, as time went by, the resentment and regret in the hearts of these righteous gods of the Shang Dynasty never dissipated.

Especially during the war between Shang and Zhou, the same was true for those who believed that Emperor Xin was wrong and chose to surrender to Ji Zhou in order to restore order.

The gods in heaven have always been biased towards the Qin State, the remnant of the Shang Dynasty, and the princes who have never hesitated to admit that they are the remnants of the Shang Dynasty.

And this is the general trend between heaven and earth!

After the Great Celestial Venerable passed away, the prestige of Heaven between heaven and earth was greatly reduced. After many Daluo entered the world one after another, the influence of Heaven also decreased. But no matter what, Heaven is the only divine court between heaven and earth that has the title of ruling over heaven and earth.

Especially after Ji Zhou confirmed the hierarchy of "Heaven is above man", the existence of Heaven has an extremely controversial influence on the general trend of the human race.

When the Heavenly Court shows some favoritism towards the princes on earth and shows this favoritism very early on, even a saint cannot directly deny the will of the entire Heavenly Court.

Thus, the history continued from Guixu.

Plus the general trend formed by the bias of the Heavenly Court.

In addition, the Qin State itself was aroused by the desire to become the king by the God of Water.

Thus, the Qin State had already become a dominant force.

But as someone once said, the human race is in awe of the will of heaven.

But the human race is also the most disrespectful to God's will.

Under the Mandate of Heaven of Qin, the attitudes of the other princes were the same: Mandate of Heaven? Bullshit!
Under such circumstances, the existence of Qin State became the target of criticism among the princes.

Among the seven great princes, even the State of Chu, which had a very good relationship with the State of Qin and had an alliance with it for thousands of years, chose to stand against the State of Qin and chose not to continue their alliance with Qin.

The chaotic battle among the seven princes turned into a war between the six princes against the Qin State.

Even though the Qin State had the geographical advantage of Guanzhong and the support of the gods in heaven, it was still defeated under such circumstances.

Under such circumstances, the struggle among the princes is no longer about righteousness, but about profit.

While Ao Bing was still rotating between those Daluo's dojo, trying to reshape the righteousness of heaven and earth, the other pole of faith and trust, the faith and trust in the human world, had already begun to collapse.

In order to win, deception and lies were everywhere, and those famous people and powerful ministers in the world would do anything to achieve their goals. Even in the court, the agreement reached between the envoy of a prince and another prince could be torn up in front of him.

The alliances between the princes were established and broken up, and then established again.

All the promises and guarantees were turned into delaying tactics for both sides in this dispute.

The coalition forces of the six princes against Qin soon became in name only and were divided up by Qin.

All living beings between heaven and earth do not think that this is against common sense. Instead, they think it is natural.

Everything is judged by success or failure.

For example, in the Lin-Zhao Treaty between Qin and Zhao, the King of Zhao obtained a treasure, so Qin exchanged it for the precious jade for fifteen cities.

However, Qin gave Zhao fifteen cities as agreed. However, Zhao's envoy Lin had a tricky plan and broke the agreement and returned with the jade.

People all over the world did not regard this as a shame, but instead thought that Lin Chen was loyal, brave and wise, and his story was praised throughout the country.

So at this moment, a certain immortal god in the Qin State once again took out a forgotten strategy.

Take the form of a true dragon to forge the qi and veins of the king of men.

It is true that King Wu of Zhou had an agreement with the Dragon Clan, but what does the agreement between King Wu of Zhou and the Dragon Clan have to do with the Qin State, the remnant of the Shang Dynasty?

During the turbulent times, the traces of the dragon clan became increasingly hidden - but even with this kind of disappearance, it was difficult to preserve them in the face of an extremely large humanitarian dynasty.

In the Dragon Court of the Huai River, more and more dragon gods came to complain, talking about the Qin State's hunting and killing of real dragons in order to forge the aura of the human king.

This caused great conflicts between the Dragon Clan and the Qin State. Even Li Nu represented the Dragon Court to attack the Qin State more than once. Although she had never directly attacked the Qin royal family, several immortal sects belonging to the Qin State were destroyed by Li Nu.

When Qin State went to war with other princes, the wind direction on the battlefield, as well as the water flow, mountain terrain and other geographical advantages were always unfavorable to Qin State.

But even under such a situation, the strength of Qin State is growing stronger day by day.

Especially in the Qin State, there was a general named Bai Qi. He was invincible wherever his army went. Wherever his army passed, he broke the backbones of several other princes.

Wherever the army points to, even Daluo must retreat.

In this way, although the Qin State was still contained in Guanzhong by the joint efforts of the princes, the Qin State trapped in Guanzhong already had the momentum to whip the whole world.

When this great trend was revealed early on and the princes of the human world made it clear that they did not recognize this great trend of destiny, the energy of the Human King was directly split and fell directly into each of the vassal states.

The entire human nature seemed to be torn apart because of this - the situation between the seven vassal states was no longer seven countries of the same origin, but more like seven different races.

The entire humanity is in danger under such a situation.

The Human King and the Human Emperor will both become legends.

It was at this time that a king named "Zheng" appeared in the Qin State.

The alliance between the six countries was completely torn apart by this king named Zheng.

The so-called "righteousness" has become an invincible weapon for this king - he has gained the trust of other princes time and time again, and has broken the agreements with those princes time and time again.

With this method, this extremely powerful and humane king destroyed the six kingdoms at an unimaginable speed, and the black flag of Qin became the only one left for the human race.

It has also become the only one in humanity.

The trend of human division had just begun to emerge when it was brought back together again by this king in an extremely brutal manner.

At this time, all the immortals and gods between heaven and earth who had deployed their forces in the human world, including those Daluo, suddenly discovered something.

That is the situation in the human world, which has been completely out of control.

This is because the King of Qin, who unified the world and restored humanity, was not the human king who was chosen by the flames of war.

But a further existence.

After Xia Qi, the inheritance of the Human Emperor was broken and transformed into the more stable inheritance of the Human King.

But now, the broken inheritance of the Human King has been resumed in the human world.

The King of Qin, Zheng, swept across the world in this most intense war and continued the broken inheritance of the Human Emperor.

Therefore, Zheng at this time is not a human king.

But the Human Emperor!

He is the Human Emperor who has disappeared for countless tens of thousands of years.

Moreover, I don’t know if it is because this Human Emperor was elected through an unprecedentedly brutal war, the spirit of humanity, under the influence of this Human Emperor, has become extremely aggressive.

When Emperor Zheng of Man was seated in Xianyang, the incomparably fiery aura of humanity rose up into the sky, pushing out an incomparably large place of humanity in the Heavenly Palace - the immortals and gods in the Heavenly Palace also walked around that place when traveling back and forth.

Similarly, those gods who had previously represented the Heavenly Court to give the Qin State the Mandate and wanted to get something in return at this time, the rewards they received were also beyond imagination.

——Their entire bodies, along with the marks they left in the Investiture of the Gods, were swallowed up by humanity and became the cornerstone of humanity.

Only a few people, such as Shuide Xingjun, ran away decisively and were not forced to stay in the human world by the Human Emperor.

At the same time, when he used the Human Emperor's Reign to declare himself "more virtuous than the Three Sovereigns, more meritorious than the Five Emperors, and respected as the First Emperor", the plan led by the Water Virtue Star Lord to induce changes in the human world through the changes of the Five Virtues had also been successfully completed.

The "water virtue" of the Qin State evolved into the position of "Black Emperor".

It was at this time that the Emperor's decree once again overwhelmed the world.

He ordered that all Taoist sects must go to Xianyang to register, and without Xianyang's permission, no immortal or god was allowed to spread the Taoist tradition in the world.

The gods and immortals who hold power in the human world must also go to Xianyang to receive their titles.

——It doesn’t matter whether those immortals and gods obey the will of heaven or not.

But, we must obey the order from Xianyang.

When the Human Emperor's order came out, naturally the heaven and earth were shaken.

Before the numerous immortals, gods, and sects could discuss countermeasures, the First Emperor's carriage left Xianyang.

One must first go to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.

Then travel around the world.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?" In the Heavenly Palace, the Water Deity and others did not even bother to seek the position of the Black Emperor, and hurried into the Pixiang Hall, wanting to ask to see the Jade Emperor.

But the Jade Emperor was not in the Pixiang Hall at this time.

He was heading towards the Far North Camp - and the one traveling with him was none other than the woman that the Water Deity Star Lord had brought back from the human world.

Streamer.

When the Jade Emperor set off, Taiqing Daode Tianzun also appeared in the Far North Camp.

He came here at the invitation of Marshal Tianpeng.

"Fellow Daoist, have you really made up your mind?" Taiqing Daode Tianzun looked at the majestic Marshal Tianpeng in front of him.
