Ancient texts say: Jupiter descends as a noble minister; Mars descends as a child, singing and playing; the heavenly stars descend as elderly n and won; Venus descends as strong n.
This describes the forms taken by the Five Elents of tal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
Similar to Innate Divine Beings, they are actually a kind of Great Demon. Whenever they appear in the Mortal World, it inevitably brings blood rain and storms, signifying a great calamity to descend upon the world.
Besides tal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, there are Disaster Stars, and various Star Constellations also have similar embodints.
Demons, naturally vicious, can be captured and killed to obtain their inner cores, the inner core being the Star Core, allowing the possessor to comprehend that star's Great Dao.
Of course, while this thod is good, it also carries great risk.
"Is that all?"
Song Lin silently morized the thod.
"This is all I know. As for whether there is any other thod, it is unknown."
Song Lin treated with sincerity, and Mao Zhong was not stingy.
"How should Emperor Shuiyuan be handled?"
Song Lin, without hesitation, said, "Naturally, punish, and then let them enter the Death River to beco a person again."
Speaking of which, there are five Heavenly Immortals suppressed in the Death River, which is quite astonishing.
If all five Heavenly Immortals were reincarnated and subdued, it would indeed be a splendid thing.
Mao Zhong had nothing more to say.
He knew Song Lin's character, emphasizing discipline and law.
"Are there other heavenly courts in the Great Thousand World?" Song Lin asked.
"I've co across so, but none too good. Nowadays, with demons rampant, so heavenly courts are even inferior to Sanmao, and those more ancient ones are unknown, perhaps in other regions."
The Great Thousand World has voids, with naturally ford lands and landscapes. This area is called Chaos Sea, and as the na implies, it is very chaotic.
Song Lin remained silent, it seems the Great Thousand World is indeed chaotic, and demons are even more rampant.
The Queen Mother of the Western ancient heavenly courts is also nowhere to be found. Previously unreachable, it's best to develop the Middle Thousand Heavenly Court first, and gradually unravel the mystery later.
It's imperative to strictly oversee the heavenly court, lest any slight achievent lead to decadence.
"You've co a long way, you must be tired, rest first, and talk about future matters later."
Song Lin said to Mao Zhong.
"Alright."
A new continent appeared in Donghua Middle Thousand, where the people of Sanmao Heavenly Court resided.
This ti, Mao Zhong brought one Heavenly Immortal, nine Harmonization cultivators, over a hundred Primordial Spirits, and below them, thousands of cultivators and tens of millions of mortals.
Besides discussing cultivation exchanges usually, they also helped construct the Middle Thousand.
And Song Lin went into seclusion for cultivation.
During the exchange between the two factions, the people of Sanmao Heavenly Court gradually assimilated, accepting the ideology of Donghua Heavenly Court.
All of this was observed by Mao Zhong.
Ten years later.
In the mortal world.
A young Taoist, holding a long banner, wandered the streets.
"A hundred taels for a divination, a hundred taels for a divination, predicting future, marriage, fortune... heaven-defying fate!"
The Taoist shouted loudly, his steps staggering, clearly having drunk a lot. The people nearby avoided him with disgust on their faces.
A hundred taels for a divination? Why not just rob?
The mortal world now uses paper money, but calculations regarding money remain the sa as before.
A hundred tael banknotes could cover a middle-class household's basic expenses for a year, who would be foolish enough to seek his divination?
The Taoist was unconcerned, continuing to wander the streets.
"Stop, I shall have a divination,"
the Taoist suddenly turned, seeing an old white-haired man in a teahouse waving at him.
The Taoist walked over, unexpectedly showing so embarrassnt.
"How dare I divine for Senior King Wen."
The Taoist was Mao Zhong, and the old white-haired man in front was Ji Chang.
Mao Zhong's cultivation was higher than Ji Chang's, but Ji Chang cultivated the Innate Eight Diagrams with profound arts of calculation, and Mao Zhong practiced the Acquired Eight Trigrams; from the perspective of the Great Dao, Mao Zhong should call Ji Chang a senior.
Moreover, over the past ten years, Ji Chang had often provided guidance.
"Sit, have a chat," Ji Chang gestured to sit down, pouring a cup of strong tea for Mao Zhong, "Are you accustod to this realm?"
Mao Zhong savored the tea, a hint of bitterness lingered on his lips.
"Very well, I've traversed the Three Realms, even visited the legendary Demon World."
"How was it?"
"People are settled, righteousness prevails."
Humans, divinities, demons, ghosts, each performs its own duty, each follows its path.
From the Heavenly Emperor to mortals, everyone has an inner boundary, which other heavenly courts do not possess.
This law and order was evident from the creation of the Pure Yang Sect; at that ti, Mao Zhong didn't understand, until the heavenly court collapsed, he realized the talents from the Pure Yang Sect adhered to this boundary the most.
Other heavenly courts, even Sanmao Heavenly Court, largely revered strength, practicing the principle that might makes right.
Without order, there's only the big ants and small ants.
The strong never willingly stay subordinate, if mortals learn a bit of spells, they must tread on others; if they beco stronger, they must inevitably beco a master or ancestor.
This place carries a thread of compassion for the weak, universal love for all beings, and constraints on the strong.
No matter how strong you are, you cannot imdiately gain power; one must be virtuous, and under special circumstances, it is not allowed to casually display spells in the mortal world.
Such ceremonial laws have maintained peace across the Three Realms.
In these years, Mao Zhong has seen many cultivators who went astray be demoted, sent to arduous places for reformation, or even thrown into the Demon World, to endure endless suffering.
Among them were even tribulation-crossing Primordial Spirits, a matter seen as ridiculous by other heavenly courts; after all, wasn't it just a few people used for cultivation, a few things robbed; akin to plucking weeds from the roadside, trivial and insignificant matters.
Even the previous Sanmao Heavenly Court, except for the Pure Yang Sect, other Magic Veins also turned a blind eye.
"Then do you think this is a good? King Wen asked.
"Certainly, obviously, Donghua Heavenly Court is even more united than I imagined..."
"Why is it united? Could it be that Eastern King is adept at governing?" King Wen pressed step by step.
"Not really, in fact, Donghua Taoist is like a hands-off manager, adept governance I have not seen, at least I haven't..."
As Mao Zhong spoke, he fell silent. Then why is it? Why is this place different from others?
"Then what is the reason? Let tell you, it's because we are all like-minded."
King Wen's eyes shone brightly.
"Like-minded?"
"Sa teacher doesn't an like-minded, sa Cultivation Technique doesn't an like-minded, only having common ideals makes one like-minded. What the Heavenly Emperor does is rely incorporating those who agree with the ideals, excluding those who do not."
Because of this, the Heavenly Court Immortals seamlessly fused, there is competition, but no private fights.
Mao Zhong finally understood King Wen's intention.
King Wen at this mont said nothing, but quietly watched him.
Mao Zhong pondered for a long ti, his heart in turmoil.
Even though unwilling to admit, Sanmao Heavenly Court indeed was no more.
Having traveled for years, his thoughts aligned with those of this heavenly court.
By joining the heavenly court as a progenitor of the Mao Mountain Dao, he maintained so lineage for Sanmao Heavenly Court.
The past matters shall scatter with the wind.
Mao Zhong understood King Wen's intention; he did not want to see himself wasting years for an illusory heavenly court.
The heavenly court is intangible, as long as the Taoist remains, what difference does it make which heavenly court one is in?
Mao Zhong said nothing but nodded in agreent.
King Wen personally took the helm, finally recruiting Mao Zhong and others.
At this ti, Song Lin was unaware; he had not authorized King Wen to do this but was crafting a Magic Treasure.
Within the Secret Realm, a ghostly green lantern floated in the void.
The lantern was structured with silver lattice, glazed on the surface, with an internal green glow emanating.
This was the Jiao'liao's Tribulation Fire Lantern, its flas lacking a tinge of evil, filled instead with the profound Great Dao of Youming.
A closer look reveals a "human" sitting inside the lantern.
Human head with a bird's beak, human body with a snake's tail.
This was a re-refined Immortal Artifact by Song Lin from Jiao'liao's corpse—Youming Glaze Lamp.
Within is the Youming Fire, this fire can break open a realm, capable of traversing the void; its flas can even be branched into sub-lanterns, allowing the bearer to transverse the void.
With this object, the heavenly court need not use conspicuous buildings and ships, transitioning to lanterns would be much more discreet.
Like Jiao'liao, the main lantern breaks the world, allowing those with sub-lanterns to enter, discreet enough not to be discovered.
Of course, for Song Lin, there is another significant function, which is to perceive the Ti-Space Dao.
"Heavenly Emperor, Xiao Mao True Monarch requests an audience."
"Oh?"
Mao Zhong brought news of his joining Donghua Heavenly Court.
From this point on, the world no longer held Sanmao Heavenly Court's Xiao Mao True Monarch, only Donghua Heavenly Court's Mao Mountain Earth Immortal Supre Mysterious God.
