1352: 917 Divine Dao’s Requirents for Perfection_2 1352: 917 Divine Dao’s Requirents for Perfection_2 “This makes four.”
“And the fifth is the Chaos Divine Palace combined with the Boundless Alms Bowl.
By rging the two, there might indeed be a chance to beco a Main God in the future.”
Jiang Chen carefully calculated and actually found quite a few seeds for Main Gods.
Each divine artifact he had previously crafted was a natural-born god, all with hopes of becoming Main Gods.
It was just that the Chaos Divine Palace and the Boundless Alms Bowl fell short, being rely treasures on the level of Taoist Masters.
Like Han Yuan and the Eight-divisional Buddhist Pagoda, they were Magic Treasures of the Quasi-Saint level.
To beco a Main God for them was rely a step away.
“With so many gods, they really are giving trouble!”
Jiang Chen felt sowhat helpless.
Had he known that establishing the Divine Dao would be so troubleso, he would have left all these matters to Cang to handle.
He had previously sent out countless avatars, traveling all over the Nine States, and the number of gods he ennobled totaled upwards of ten thousand.
Unfortunately, the strongest among these gods were no more than comparable to Heavenly Immortals, and it was still a vast distance from reaching Golden Immortal status.
In other words, after all his hard work, he hadn’t managed to consecrate even one Heavenly God.
Now, the Heavenly Gods in the divine system were mostly concentrated in Cang Mountain, either being gods belonging to Cang or disciples of the Shangqing Palace who had converted.
Gathering all the gods necessary for the Divine Dao to be complete was far from simple.
“I hope this trip to Luoyang will be able to help .” Looking ahead to Luoyang, Jiang Chen suddenly thought of a thod to rapidly expand the Divine Dao.
He set his sights on the Confucian Dao!
It was the Eastern Han period now, and the Confucian Dao had not yet fallen into decay, the hearts of Confucians were not yet rotten.
Present-day Confucians had not abandoned the Gentlen’s Six Arts and were capable both in literature and in martial prowess.
Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith, the Five Virtues, were still held in their hearts.
Certainly, a Confucian must be a scholar, but a scholar isn’t necessarily a Confucian if they do not understand the Six Arts, cannot ride a horse and wield a sword, can’t do mathematics, aren’t versed in law, what kind of Confucian would that be?
From a certain perspective, true Confucians are the most suitable people to beco gods.
Because Confucians, to execute their ambitions in their hearts, must beco officials and manage a territory.
If successful, and the people live in peace and prosperity, they would undoubtedly accrue rit.
Moreover, Confucians cannot live forever.
Even if one becos a great Confucian of the generation, with strength comparable to an Innate Dao Sovereign, they can only live up to three to five hundred years at most.
With virtue, with rit, yet unable to live long, aren’t they the perfect candidates for the Divine Path?
Alive, they serve as officials to benefit a region, bringing peace and happiness to the people.
After death, they beco gods, still able to protect the people, ensuring they have good weather for the crops and peace year after year.
And because of the cultivation they have attained in life, Confucians, after converting to the Divine Dao, could instantly possess great power and take up the highest positions among the gods.
For example, those comparable to Innate Dao Sovereigns, if they were to convert to the Divine Dao after death, would directly beco Divine Sovereigns, their realm corresponding to Innate Dao Sovereigns.
In today’s world, although there are no Sub-Saints of the Confucian Dao with strength comparable to Quasi-Saints, nor Associate Saints comparable to Great Divine Transcendents, there are still quite a few great Confucians.
Out in the open, there are a dozen or so, and who knows how many more are hidden away.
If all these people were to convert to the Divine Dao, then the Divine Dao would imdiately gain dozens more Divine Sovereigns.
There are over a dozen great Confucians, and beneath them, there are even more eminent Confucian scholars.
It’s easy to round up a hundred or so, and if these people were to convert to the Divine Dao, they would start as Divine Monarchs.
“First take a look; if possible, then let the Divine Dao rge with the Confucian Dao, living as Confucians, dying to beco gods.”
“If the effect is good, when I unify the Nine States and rule over all in the future, I can also bind the Divine Dao to the official system.
All capable ministers and good generals, after death, can beco gods, thus strengthening the Divine Dao with the Human Royal Court.”
Thinking of the future prospects for the Divine Dao, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but look at the Nine States once more.
In his eyes, in a place invisible to mortals, a vague golden net appeared, covering the entire land of the Nine States.
His gaze penetrated the golden net and continued to look beyond, where he could vaguely make out a vast world.
Sun, Moon, and Stars, mountains and rivers — it had everything.
If a Great Divine Transcendent were to see this world, they would certainly exclaim in shock.
Because this world was exactly like the Ancient Chaos World.
Chaos Divine Territory!
A complete Chaos Divine Territory!
After the Divine Net was perfected, it would transform into countless Heavenly Dao laws, giving birth to a complete Chaos World.
And those 129,600 Heavenly Gods would turn into pillars of Heaven, supporting the Divine Territory of Chaos.
Only when the Divine Dao was perfected, would the Divine Territory of Chaos be completed.
And the mont the Divine Territory of Chaos reached completion was when Jiang Chen would reshape the Chaos World.
At that ti, the illusory Chaos and the tangible Heaven and Earth would overlap, rging illusion with reality, refining the false into truth, the real into fiction, and evolving the most ultimate Dao Fruit, the Primordial Dao Fruit.
And this was Jiang Chen’s ninth path to Daoist confirmation.
After confirming Dao nine tis, Jiang Chen was bound to beco the most profoundly endowed Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial.
As twilight approached, Jiang Chen arrived at the outskirts of Luoyang City.
Luoyang!
This was a city rich in legend.
Founded during the Xia Dynasty, it was one of the oldest capitals of the Human Race, and one of the few ancient cities that had been passed down from Ancient Tis.
Legend had it that Luoyang City had been destroyed many tis.
This was true, but what had been destroyed was only the shell of Luoyang City, not its mark.
This ancient city, handed down from Ancient Tis, had long beco sentient.
Its mark was branded Between Heaven and Earth, immortal and indestructible, coexisting with the Fate of the Human Race.
Because of the existence of this mark, even though the body of Luoyang City was destroyed nurous tis, it still possessed a powerful foundation.
Wherever the mark lay, it could gather the Fate of all directions.
It was precisely because of its ability to gather Fate that many emperors of later generations, when establishing their dynasties, chose to set their capitals in Luoyang.
At this mont, upon arriving in Luoyang, Jiang Chen felt an ancient aura hit him in the face.
He was the Human King, the most revered being in the Nine States, sharing his existence with the Fate of the Human Race.
Therefore, the Luoyang he saw was different from that seen by Mortals.
In the eyes of Mortals, Luoyang was just an ancient city.
But in Jiang Chen’s eyes, Luoyang was a record of ancient history, docunting the rise and fall of dynasties.
He saw the establishnt of the Xia Dynasty, witnessed Taikang losing his kingdom, and Taikang being slain by Hou Yi, with the Nine Tripods all falling into Hou Yi’s hands.
Hou Yi’s killing of Taikang was not a dynastic change; after his ascent to the throne, he remained the king of Xia, hence Hou Yi was also known as “Hou Yi,” with “Hou” aning the Xia’s “Later.”
Jiang Chen also saw, after Luoyang’s destruction, the Shang Emperor building a new city not far from there.
He saw Duke Zhou assisting in governance, establishing the capital in Luoyang.
He further saw the demise of Western Zhou and the rise of Eastern Zhou.
Then Eastern Zhou was overthrown, and after innurable years, Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han, built his capital here once again.
Screech!
As he watched, the historical afterimages in Jiang Chen’s eyes suddenly all vanished, incinerated by a dazzling fire, turning into myriad sparkling points of light.
The next mont, the light spots converged, transforming into a massive Dragon Phoenix before Jiang Chen’s eyes, possessing the body of a True Dragon, yet adorned with a pair of Phoenix wings.
“Dragon Phoenix, Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han!”
At the sight of this Dragon Phoenix, Jiang Chen imdiately guessed his origin, indeed the founder of the Eastern Han, Emperor Guangwu of Han’s remaining will.
Liu Xiu was an extrely legendary figure, even more so than his ancestor Liu Bang, hailed as the “child of the plane.”
Both emperors who founded Western and Eastern Han seed to have incomparable luck.
Liu Bang was a Son of Emperor Chi, so it made sense that he had good fortune; after all, he had people in Heaven.
But Liu Xiu’s case was sowhat sensational, as he actually defeated Wang Mang.
Wang Mang, too, was a legendary figure.
His rise to power was also related to Jiang Chen.
Precisely because he accidentally obtained the manuscripts Jiang Chen wrote out of boredom, Wang Mang’s performance beca so exceptional.
To so extent, Wang Mang had touched Jiang Chen’s fortune, so his Fate beca incredibly powerful, able to usurp the throne and proclaim himself emperor successfully.
But as good as Wang Mang’s fortune was, Liu Xiu’s was even better.
After who knows how many years since the Great Tri-Racial Battle, could you imagine that soone still managed to inherit the bloodline of the ancestral Dragon and Phoenix?
Liu Xiu was just that sensational; in his youth, he inherited the bloodlines of the ancestral Dragon and Phoenix.
