Xia Jie had a minister named Guan Longpang. Hearing the angry voices of the people, he admonished Jie Jin and said: "The emperor is humble and trustworthy, frugal and cares for the talented. Only then can the world be stable and the dynasty be stable. Now, Your Majesty Your extravagance and murderous nature have made the people hope for your early demise. Your Majesty has lost the support of the people. Only by correcting your mistakes quickly can you restore the support of the people."
After Jie heard this, he cursed Guan Longpang angrily, and finally ordered him to be killed. Xia Jie believed that his rule would never be destroyed, so he said: "There is a sun in the sky, just like me Like the common people, will the sun perish? When the sun perishes, I will perish." He also called a meeting of his tribes to prepare for a war against other tribes.
In this way, Jie gradually lost the hearts of the people and caused everyone to rebel and abandon their relatives. At this time, there was a Shang tribe in the human race, which gradually prospered under the leadership of Ling Tang. Jie was worried that Shang Tang would endanger himself, so he imprisoned him in Xiatai for an excuse. After learning about this, he hurriedly sent Jie a large sum of money and bribed Jie's cronies, so that Tang was released and returned to business.
After Shang Tang returned, he won the hearts of the people with his kindness and won the support of the people.
Once, when he went out to play, he saw a man hanging a net on a tree, and then murmured to himself: "Whether it comes from the sky or from the ground, all birds from all directions fly into the net. Tang said to him: "You have gone too far. How can you kill them all with a net like this? Just remove one side and leave the net on three sides."
The farmers did as they were told. Tang Zhu said: "Birds, if you want to go to the left, go to the left, and if you want to go to the right, go to the right. Only the birds that don't listen to my words will fly into the net." Open one side of the soup net to benefit the animals. After the incident spread, people praised him for his generosity and kindness towards the people and supported him one after another. Tang's power further grew.
At this time, the disciples of Jie Jiao had completely given up on the Xia Dynasty. After seeing Shang Tang's benevolence, Master Tongtian decisively ordered his disciples to come out again to assist Shang Tang. Shang Tang's reputation suddenly rose sharply. With the support of the Xia Dynasty, he finally launched a crusade against the Xia Dynasty.
Tang Li enumerated Xia Jie's tyranny and cruelty, and called on the small vassal states of Xia to abandon Jie and join the Shang Dynasty. Those who did not listen to his advice sent troops to attack and destroy the vassal states of the Xia Dynasty, such as Ge, Wei, Gu and other Xia dynasty states, in order to cut off Jie's wings. Shang Tang became stronger and stronger as he fought. After eleven campaigns, he was invincible in the world. Xia Jie was trapped in an isolated situation.
Tang also moved the capital to Hao, using it as a base to advance, preparing to finally attack and destroy the Xia Dynasty. Tang also adopted Yi Yin's suggestion and stopped paying tribute to the Xia Dynasty to test Xia Jie's strength. Seeing this, Jie ordered the soldiers of the Nine Yi tribe to At this time, Jie was still able to mobilize the troops of the Nine Yi tribe to conquer Shang.
Seeing that the people of the world were not completely disappointed with Jie, Tang and Yi Yin immediately apologized and resumed paying tribute to Xia Jie. Jie actually forgave Shang Tang. A few years later, the Nine Yi people could not stand Jie's brutal rule and rebelled one after another. , which greatly weakened Jie's strength. Tang and Yi Yin saw that the time was ripe, so Tang summoned his troops and sent out troops to attack Xia. Jie got the news and led his troops to Mingtiao.
The two armies were fighting, and the Xia army officers and soldiers were unwilling to sacrifice their lives for Jie. They took the opportunity to flee one after another. Xia Jie could not stop him and had to flee into the city in a hurry. The merchant army followed closely. Jie hurriedly took Mei Xi and Zhen Bao and fled across the river to Nanchao, was later overtaken and captured by Cheng Tang, and exiled here.
Later, when the princes gathered together, Tang retreated and took the throne of the princes. The princes all elected Tang to be the emperor, so Tang began to ascend the throne, all in Bo, and it was called the Shang Dynasty in history. At this point, from the beginning to Jiefan, there were thirteen generations, sixteen generations, and a length of The 3,500-year-old Xia Dynasty ended.
At this time, the reputation of Jiejiao in the human race had greatly increased, and because the Holy Land of the human race had not appeared for thousands of years, the outside human race had gradually forgotten it. Many people even thought that it was just a legend. Three thousand years of time had nothing to do with an ordinary person. It is very out of reach for mortals, and it is normal to forget nature.
Shang Tang established the Xia Dynasty with the support of Jie Jiao. Naturally, he relied heavily on Jie Jiao and established Jie Jiao as the state religion. For generations, emperors had disciples of Jie Jiao to assist them or accept them as disciples. Jie Jiao's reputation among the human race naturally increased greatly. Far more than before.
However, Tongtian is not a petty person. Although the Jie Sect is at its peak in the human race, he has not deliberately suppressed other sects, especially the Renchan Sect. After all, it is the sect established by his two brothers. He can still give up Some human vassal states asked them to preach, but this move also made Yuanshi Tianzun unhappy.
Naturally, I don’t care about Lord Tongtian’s kind concession, but Yuanshi Tianzun is different. He has a good face and is selfish. Yuanshi Tianzun is the second brother of Lord Tongtian. Yu Gong, Yuanshi Tianzun is the second brother of Lord Tongtian. Now he has arrived. How can Yuanshi Tianzun be willing to do what Tongtian wants.
Fortunately, the disciples of his disciples fought hard. Guangchengzi and Randeng Taoist broke through to the realm of quasi-sages successively, which made Yuanshi Tianzun severely exposed in front of all the saints. Except for the two disciples of Minghe who were quasi-sages, Yuanshi Tianzun was also a quasi-sage. Tianzun is the only saint among the saints who has two quasi-sage disciples, how can he be dissatisfied.
Compared with the open and covert struggle in the ancient world, the blood sea seems much calmer. For thousands of years, there has never been any wave in the blood sea. Under the great formation of stars in the sky, the blood god son of Styx cultivates quietly, The Asura clan is hiding in the sea of blood, absorbing the evil spirit of blood while tempering their bodies with the power of the stars in the sky.
But on this day, a crack suddenly appeared on Holy Spirit Island, and a figure walked out of it. Taoist Honglian, who was in retreat, woke up immediately. Looking at the voice, Taoist Honglian smiled and said: "My dear, you must be strong when you come back." It's early, I thought you wouldn't come back until you become a god!"
This figure was Ming He who had left the wilderness for a long time. Before Ming He heard Taoist Honglian, he couldn't help but said: "Has the battle of the Conferred Gods not started yet? I have been away for more than five thousand years. I originally thought that the battle of the Conferred Gods The war is over, but I didn’t expect it hasn’t started yet.”
When Taoist Honglian heard this, he smiled and said: "This is a prehistoric world. We cannot judge by history. Although the emperors of the human race did not practice immortality, they could prolong their lives by practicing immortality or martial arts. Naturally, the time will be longer. Now Xia Mie Shang Xing, there have been less than ten generations of emperors in the Shang Dynasty, and it will take about a thousand years for the battle to confer gods to begin."
When Minghe heard this, he also smiled: "Yeah, I had forgotten that this is the prehistoric period after all, and the change of dynasties is naturally different, but it's okay, this is just in time to become a god. In this case, I have to plan carefully. Planned."
Upon hearing this, Taoist Honglian smiled and didn't say much. He just felt the breath of Ming He and Taoist Qiankun hidden among the human flowers. Taoist Honglian smiled and said: "My dear, it seems that this trip to chaos , your gains are not small!”
Ming He nodded, with a satisfied smile on his face: "That's natural, otherwise how could you be worthy of spending more than three thousand years? But you, now that the Karma Fire Red Lotus is complete, you are already the best innate treasure, although you have cultivated We haven’t broken through yet, but I’m afraid it’s not far off.”
After Hong Lian Taoist left the Ming River, he began to use the Karma Red Lotus to devour the ninth-level merit golden lotus. After success, the Karma Red Lotus was perfected in five directions, and naturally advanced to the realm of the ultimate innate treasure. The Karma Red Lotus is the Red Lotus of Taoist Hong Lian. The physical body, Karma Red Lotus has been promoted, and the physical cultivation of Taoist Honglian has naturally improved. Unfortunately, the Law of Cause and Effect and the Law of Killing are still at the early stages of Hunyuan, but I believe they will break through in a short time.
Minghe looked at Taoist Honglian and asked: "I have been away from the ancient world for more than five thousand years. During this time, have any major events happened in the ancient world? How are Liu'er, Kong Xuan and Xuangui? How are they? Has anything changed about the saints and their sect?"
When Taoist Honglian heard this, he immediately laughed: "The saints did not do anything, they were just competing for luck among the human race. However, under their sect, Xuandu, Guangchengzi, Randen, Duobao and Yaoshi successively broke through to the quasi-sage realm. , the others are nothing. As for Liu Er, Kong Xuan and Xuan Gui, the three of them have made breakthroughs in their cultivation, which is not bad."
Ming He nodded after hearing this, but there were no big changes. Although the Four Sects had disciples who had broken through to the quasi-sage realm, Liu Er and Kong Xuan were much more powerful than them. Ming He naturally didn't care about it, but Taoist Honglian mentioned When he reached Liu Er, his expression looked a little strange, which made Styx a little curious, so he asked: "Did something happen to Liu Er?"
Taoist Honglian said with a smile: "Liu'er is indeed in trouble, but it's a good thing. He is now with Haotian's sister Yao Ji. The two of them live a life of flowers before the moon and under the moon. You and I, carefree between heaven and earth. , they are really a couple of gods and gods, but they are very enviable."
