Chapter 120 Living Lang
Refining the Qi, refining the Qi to transform into the spirit, and then refining the spirit to return the essence. This forms a cycle, allowing the essence, Qi and spirit to go hand in hand, and the body, mana, and spirit will grow at the same time, leaving no trace behind. any defects.
This method of practice is a truly perfect method of practice, with only two shortcomings. One is that it consumes too many resources, several times that of ordinary people.
The second is that it requires many times more energy than ordinary people, which greatly extends the time required for practice.
That is to say, Ao Bing does not lack resources or time, otherwise he would not dare to practice like this.
Chaos and silence, time flies by, and decades fly by in the blink of an eye. But Ao Bing, who devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation, knew nothing about it.
But on the other side, in Heaven, after decades of preparations by Ao Bing’s incarnation and the gods, the operations of the Punishment Department and the History Museum are finally on the right track.
The Punishment Department is okay. In addition to the few generals appointed by Ao Bing, it has recently recruited many heavenly soldiers and generals, totaling about 10,000 people.
Among them, Tianpeng leads three thousand heavenly soldiers, responsible for patrolling the thirty-third heaven and monitoring the gods. Zhenwu leads seven thousand heavenly soldiers, who are responsible for patrolling the world and subduing demons.
There was no peace in the prehistoric world, or in other words, the only peace was the Kyushu, which was ruled by the human race.
Emperor Yu divided the nine states and used the gold from the nine states to cast the nine tripods. While suppressing the luck of the human race, he also created a barrier of the nine states, making it difficult for the strong men of all races to suppress their magical powers in the nine states.
Since then, Kyushu has been settled, and few demons have caused trouble in the world.
But Kyushu is not all of Prehistoric, but only a part of Prehistoric. Outside of Kyushu, there are still large areas of Prehistoric, caught in endless disputes.
The eastern part of the prehistoric world is known as the Earth Immortal Realm and is the base camp of the Immortal Way. It is relatively peaceful here, but there are frequent conflicts between immortals. The mountains and rivers are broken at every turn, the land is sinking, and the spiritual veins are cut off.
In addition, there are some immortals who do not hesitate to over-exploit resources in order to speed up their cultivation, and even directly extract the source of their spiritual veins for cultivation.
And these are all prohibited by the laws of heaven.
In the past, the responsibilities of the Heavenly Court were unclear and no one took care of these matters, but now that there is a Penalties Department, these matters must be taken care of. According to the degree of damage these immortals have caused to the world, it is decided whether to kill or capture them.
The southern part of the prehistoric period, where the Nine Provinces are located, is under the control of human kings, and heaven has no right to interfere.
The wild west, where the west is, although barren, is still under the control of heaven.
Don’t think that the West is the stronghold of Western religions, just think how peaceful it is here.
In fact, in the western land, demonic monks are the most active, showing up from time to time to stir up disputes and collect calamity and evil spirits for practice.
Conquering demons and subjugating demons is also within the scope of the Department of Punishment. For example, Zhenwu is the true king of exorcizing demons, Tianpeng is the true king of exorcizing demons, and Yang Jian is the god of subduing demons.
It can even be said that the main responsibility of the Punishment Department is to go to various places to slay demons. The West is the place where demonic cultivators are most rampant, and it must be a key target of the Department of Punishment.
Needless to say, the northern part of the prehistoric period was the most chaotic area in the prehistoric period.
Aliens and poisons that are disliked by heaven and earth, remnants of the demon clan, vicious people of evil ways, evil people of evil ways...
Basically, all the notorious people from the prehistoric era gathered in the northern part of the prehistoric era, making this place extremely chaotic and without any order at all.
The killings continued and the fighting continued.
The murderers here often spread to other places to cause trouble. At the same time, the perpetrators of the rebellion would often flee to the northern part of the wilderness after committing serious crimes.
Zhenwu led his troops to patrol the world, mainly targeting the western and northern parts of the wilderness. If they encountered demons causing trouble, they would either kill them or capture them.
While maintaining the order of the three realms, it also demonstrates the power of heaven to the world.
In addition, if a ferocious beast is born, it will also be the target of the heavenly soldiers and generals. In fact, before the Department of Punishment was established, the main task of Heavenly Court was to hunt and kill ferocious beasts.
Not only can you gain merit by killing ferocious beasts, but it will not offend anyone. For those generals with no background, this is the least risky thing to do.
The main task of the Punishment Department is to monitor the gods internally and slay demons externally. Ao Bing does not need to do these things himself, he only needs to arrange them and his subordinates will be responsible.
If you encounter a demon that you cannot defeat, or an immortal that you cannot afford to offend, there is no need to bother Ao Bing, or ask the Jade Emperor, or ask Laojun.
In short, although there are many things in the Punishment Department, they can basically be left to subordinates. As long as he takes charge of the overall situation, he can be considered free.
However, it is more troublesome at the History Museum. It’s not the things that are troublesome, it’s the people that are troublesome.
After hearing that Heavenly Court was going to revise the history of the Monster Clan, the group of great supernatural power users couldn’t sit still. They themselves do not agree with this matter, but they have no reason to object.
Therefore, after much thought, they decided to change their passiveness into active participation in the compilation of history.
So, a group of disciples of great supernatural powers, or Taoist boys, rushed to Heaven one after another, saying that they wanted to join the History Museum.
They said that they were worried that Ao Bing was unclear about Taikoo’s past, so they specially sent people to help him check for deficiencies, clarify the historical context, and restore the most authentic history. In fact, they sent people to monitor Ao Bing to prevent him from deliberately distorting the facts and using various methods to hack them in the name of revising history.
We are all old foxes, how can we not know the role of history books in making final conclusions for others.
Once you are blacklisted in the history books, your reputation will be completely ruined. It will be extremely difficult to clear your name.
There are very few people with great supernatural powers who don't care about reputation, so they will never allow this to happen. History can be compiled, but it must be done under their leadership, and heaven must not be allowed to do whatever they want.
A group of great supernatural beings joined forces to exert pressure. Even the Jade Emperor couldn't bear it, let alone Ao Bing, so they had no choice but to let their people join in.
Then things got into trouble.
Because the representatives represent different camps, when they look at the same thing, they often have different views, and they all say things that are beneficial to them.
To put it simply, everyone wants to stuff private stuff into history books, but because there are so many people stuffing stuff into history books, many things begin to contradict themselves and make no sense at all.
But none of them were willing to give in, and they all wanted the other party to give in. Under such circumstances, everyone naturally started to quarrel, or even fight.
Ao Bing spent most of his energy on this in recent years, trying to balance the relationship between the parties and resolve the conflicts between them, which made him physically and mentally exhausted.
Finally, Ao Bing had no choice but to come up with an idea. Let everyone first compile a catalog of the history of heaven, and then write a biography of each person based on the catalog, and then summarize it.
This is one of the genres of history books, which reflects historical events by describing the activities of characters. But the history of heaven that Ao Bing wants to compile is in a chronological style.
Chronological history books take time as the center and record historical events in the order of year, month and day. It takes time as its longitude and historical events as its latitude, and can more intuitively reflect the connection between various historical events in the same period.
The biographical style focuses on characters, while the chronological style focuses on time. Obviously, the chronological style of history books is more in line with Ao Bing's requirements. Therefore, if he wants to compile history, he must mainly use chronological history books.
However, the chronological history book meets his requirements, but does not meet the requirements of those with great supernatural powers. But it doesn't matter. Chronicles don't meet their requirements, but biographies do.
What they wanted was fame, so Ao Bing simply proposed a biographical writing method and asked their disciples and Taoists to write a biography for them.
In this way, not only did they meet their requirements, but Ao Bing could also obtain enough historical materials to compile his chronological history book.
In addition, history books also include country style, chronological history, chronicle style and other genres.
National style can be used to record racial history, such as dragon clan history, human clan history, demon clan history, etc.
Dynamic history can be used to record the history of an era, such as ancient history, ancient history, ancient history, ancient history, etc.
The chronicle is mainly based on events and can be used to record major events in the ancient times, such as the creation of Pangu, the catastrophe of ferocious beasts, the stand-up of the three clans, the battle between Taoists and demons, the three sermons in Zixiao Palace, etc.
With so many history book genres, there is always one that can meet the needs of the world.
Just like now, the people who were still quarreling immediately became quiet and stopped quarreling after Ao Bing proposed the biographical genre and asked them to write their own histories.
Instead, I began to think about how to describe the characters as honestly as possible without changing the history. Allowing them to play freely seems to have no restrictions, but in fact the restrictions are even greater.
Because of the same thing, if what you write is inconsistent with what others have written, you are not telling the world clearly that one of the history books is false, or both history books are false.
Compiling a history book that is completely fabricated, if this spreads out, the reputation will be completely ruined.
In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, when people compile history, they naturally try to restore the truth as much as possible to avoid being inconsistent with what others have written and directly exposing the truth.
Involution!
Ao Bing understood the essence of involution. In one simple sentence, he not only solved his own troubles, but also caused the disciples and Taoist disciples of these great supernatural powers to fall into crazy involution.
What’s even more outrageous is that even if Ao Bing forced them to get involved, they didn’t think there was anything wrong with Ao Bing’s actions, and instead thanked him.
Roll it up, roll it up like crazy. The more curled they are, the greater the benefits Ao Bing will get.
In addition to letting these people fall into involution, Ao Bing also created a profession, that is, the historian, or the living man, who specializes in recording the daily actions and great events of the great people for the purpose of revising daily life notes.
Now, the Jade Emperor, Taishang Laojun, and the emperors from all over the heaven are all accompanied by a living man to record their daily lives.
In addition, Ao Bing also sent Ji Lang to various dojos of great supernatural powers in the ancient times to record their every move.
As for his actions, Ao Bing said that he was doing it to collect historical materials and compile notes on daily life. But for what purpose, it’s hard to say.
Anyway, since I had the Living Man, Jade Emperor and Laojun around me, I have learned to be cautious in my words and deeds and never speak nonsense. At the same time, the way they looked at Ao Bing became a little strange.
