Chapter 212 The greater the power, the greater the responsibility
Obviously, human kings and princes have endless longevity, but why can't they always be in power, but instead have to pass on power to future generations like mortals?
Are they unwilling?
No, power is the most wonderful thing in the world. Who would be willing to give up the power they have unless they have no choice.
The human king and the princes cannot remain in power because they have been counterattacked by the laws of heaven and humanity since they succeeded to the throne.
As the saying goes, with greater power comes greater responsibility. As the kings of a country, they control the life, death and destiny of hundreds of millions of creatures, so the cause and effect involved is naturally huge.
Everything done by the creatures under his rule, whether good or bad, must be counted on the head of the monarch.
Therefore, unless the living beings are governed, they are all saints with perfect moral character. Otherwise, no matter whether you are a small prince or a high-ranking human emperor, you will be affected by the backlash of heaven and earth due to the influence of cause and effect.
The larger the fiefdom, the more creatures under its rule, and the more severe the backlash it will suffer. This is why even the Human Emperor cannot stay in power forever.
You must know that the Human Emperor rules not only the human race, but all living creatures of all races. The damage they caused to the heaven and earth, as well as the killings, and the cause and effect they caused must be counted among the Human Emperor.
Breathing in and out of spiritual energy is abhorrent to Heaven;
Destroying the spiritual veins of mountains and rivers is abhorrent to Earth.
Carrying out killings and harming living beings is an abomination to humanity.
And these things are inevitable. How can a monarch last long if he is disliked by all three worlds?
When he first took over the throne, he was still able to withstand it, but as time went by, even with his extraordinary cultivation, he could not withstand the growing backlash.
Therefore, even the Human Emperor, relying on his heavenly cultivation and great merits, can only last for tens of millions or billions of years at most.
The kings of later generations, especially the monarchs of the Xia and Shang dynasties, were not good at cultivation and merit, and their persistence was even shorter.
There are very few people who can last for more than 100,000 years. Basically, after ruling for tens of thousands of years, they can no longer hold on and have to abdicate.
The king of men is like this, and the princes in the world are similar. However, their territory was small, their population was small, and their status was low, so the backlash they suffered was much lighter than that of the monarchs of the Xia and Shang dynasties.
Of course, their cultivation is also weak.
Therefore, in general, the lifespan of the princes is similar to that of the monarchs of the Xia and Shang dynasties. They also had to abdicate after tens of thousands of years.
Being a prince and a king means you have to endure the corresponding backlash. This is a law that even the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors cannot escape, and Ao Bing is no exception.
However, Ao Bing is different from others.
Since he became a prince, although he has trained many monks, compared to his contribution, he has repeatedly brought more money to the world, making the spiritual energy in the world stronger day by day.
The spiritual energy absorbed by the monks he trained is nothing. Therefore, instead of being counterattacked by Heaven, he was rewarded by Heaven.
At the same time, after he became a prince, he not only did not destroy the mountains and rivers, but instead reshaped them, created Longzhou, and even repaired the ancient ancestral line.
Therefore, he did not suffer the true backlash, but was favored by it.
As for humanity, Ao Bing has not yet carried out any killings. Instead, he has created a lineage of people and dragons and ordered people to research better crops to promote the development of humanity.
So, in terms of humanity, for the time being, Ao Bing’s merits outweigh his faults. But after a while, it will be hard to say.
If the billions, or even tens of billions, of slaves in Su City were killed because of his siege, a portion of the karma generated would have to be attributed to him.
It is true that this little karma cannot harm Ao Bing, but for him, this is the beginning of breaking his defense. It means that from then on, he will suffer the backlash of humanity.
Originally, according to the development route planned by Ao Bing, as long as he opened up the world for the ancient times while repairing the ancestral lineage of the ancient times, even if he became a prince, he would not suffer the backlash from heaven and earth.
He can take care of both heaven and earth, but what about humanity? As a monk, especially a monk who has become a prince, killing is inevitable, and he is destined to do things that hurt people and people.
“Troublesome!”
Sighing, Ao Bing suddenly thought of another purpose of his trip.
He plundered the national destiny of the Soviet Union and enhanced his own destiny, so as to find a way to improve the status of slaves and prevent them from being sacrificed and buried alive.
This is called the sacrifice of the dead and the sacrifice of the dead!
There is no doubt that as long as this is achieved, countless human races can be saved, thereby gaining the favor of the human race's destiny and even the blessing of humanity.
"I am not the one who wants to kill. This is a necessary sacrifice. Think about it, humanity will understand."
In the prehistoric times, as long as the merits outweigh the faults, then it is considered a mistake. If you are big, nothing will happen. Thinking of this, Ao Bing suddenly felt relieved.
Since killing is unavoidable, he will do more things that are beneficial to humanity in order to gain favor from humanity so that its backlash will never come.
"Long Bo is merciful, but when you enter the battlefield, killing is inevitable, so you can only try to look away."
Huang Feihu knew what Ao Bing was worried about, but he didn't know what to do. To persuade, you can only ask Ao Bing to look away as much as possible. Anyway, you will get used to it in the future.
Immortal nobles, orthodox immortal monks, unless they encounter someone who deserves death, they will basically give small punishments but big warnings, and rarely hurt people's lives.
In Huang Feihu's view, what Ao Bing did before was just like an orthodox immortal monk, sorting out the earth's veins, reshaping mountains and rivers, and cleaning up ferocious beasts... Which of these things is not a meritorious act?
As for the dragon boat he drove earlier, he crashed into Sioux City, resulting in the tragic death of countless soldiers defending the city.
Although the truth is unpleasant, it is the fact. As long as the other party has no merit, then killing the monk is not only not a crime, but also meritorious.
Monks are guilty of original sin, so the more monks who have no merit, the more they kill, the more merit they will have. Killing monks is not an act of killing, killing innocent mortals and virtuous monks is.
The orthodox immortal monk was forced to commit murder. Ao Bing felt helpless. Just thinking about it made Huang Feihu feel extremely uncomfortable for him.
But so what, as the saying goes, now that you have entered the battlefield, no matter how unwilling you are, you will get used to it sooner or later.
If you don't kill others, others will kill you. If you don’t want to die, you can only kill.
"Huang Hou is worried too much. I will not be soft-hearted. When I kill, I kill to stop the killing, not to kill for the sake of killing. I have no regrets in my heart and my heart will not be dusted. "
Knowing that Huang Feihu was worried that he would be soft-hearted and let Su Cheng go, Ao Bing smiled and said softly, saying that he would not do that. At the same time, he suddenly stood up and walked outside.
"What is Long Bo?"
Seeing Ao Bing leave, Huang Feihu asked subconsciously.
"Su City has been trapped for so long and is almost reaching its limit. I will add fuel to their fire. By the way, save those poor slaves."
"It's all the hard work of Empress Nuwa. It's okay. Life, old age, illness and death, but you should not be sacrificed alive."
Ao Bing is still willing to do what he can. Of these tens of billions of creatures, we can save as many as we can.
"Long Bo is merciful!"
Huang Feihu suddenly felt that there was no need for Ao Bing to do this. He was just a slave. If he died, he would die. It was no big deal. But this did not prevent him from being moved by Ao Bing's compassion.
In fact, if possible, he would not want the slaves in the city to die, but that was not out of sympathy, but because he regarded them as his own wealth, so he could not bear their death. After all, a slave has no value if it dies.
There is an essential difference between Ao Bing and them. Every sentence is the hard work of Nuwa, which is enough to show that he regards slaves as human beings, living people, not cold property.
"Huh?"
As soon as he walked out of the camp, Ao Bing suddenly felt something and looked into the distance. There, a huge nine-tailed sky fox took shape and was rushing towards here quickly.
"Have reinforcements from Su City arrived? This is a good thing. If these reinforcements are defeated, the final morale of Su City's soldiers will probably be completely shattered."
Seeing the reinforcements from Su City arriving, Ao Bing was not surprised but overjoyed, because this marked the opportunity to break through the psychological defense of the Su City defenders.
Reinforcements are their last hope. If the reinforcements are defeated, will they still have the courage to hold on to the city?
I am afraid that with a little incitement, they will surrender. After all, Ao Bing said before that as long as he surrendered before breaking the city, he would only kill the culprits and not involve them.
"Da Shang's reinforcements are also coming, but it's the same with or without me. Huang Feihu can handle everything. At the moment, I still go to Su City and block their sacrifice passage."
After giving Huang Feihu an order, Ao Bing hurried to Su City.
At the same time, Su Hou and others in Su City also noticed the arrival of reinforcements. For a moment, the whole city was shaken, the previously depressed atmosphere was swept away, morale soared, and the image of the national destiny solidified. "I can save the country of Su. As long as the reinforcements can repel Ao Bing and others who are guarding outside the city, then the crisis of the country of Su can be resolved immediately. The country passed down by my ancestors will not perish in my hands. "
Su Hou shouted excitedly, his tone extremely excited.
"Your Majesty, please don't forget that there are still 100,000 armored men in Su City. As long as we join forces with the reinforcements, Ao Bing will be defeated under internal and external attacks."
Subsequently. As the reinforcements arrived, some senior officials from Su State regained their former composure and spoke confidently.
"You're right. There are still soldiers in the city who can fight. How can we let the reinforcements go out to fight alone? Send me an order. When the reinforcements arrive, immediately open the city gate and send a large army to fight and coordinate with them."
Su Hou After coming back to his senses, he said in an even more excited tone. At this moment, he seemed to see the dawn of victory. However, despite being excited, he did not forget about business.
He forced himself to calm down and said to Prime Minister Su in an unusually stern tone: "Prime Minister, where are the demon reinforcements?"
"If the demon reinforcements are coming at this time, So, with the combined efforts of our three parties, we can not only defeat Ao Bing, but also keep Dashang’s hundred thousand elites here.”
“Why haven’t reinforcements from the demon tribe arrived yet given this opportunity?”
At the beginning, Su Hou's tone was only harsh, but by the end, the harshness had been replaced by anger. Looking at him, he wanted to kill Su Xiangxiang.
"The demon clan reinforcements will be here soon, they will be here soon."
Su Xiang was so worried that he was sweating, and he quickly promised. It's just that Su Hou will not bring such great pressure to him, but now, it's not just Su Hou who is staring at him.
Most of the nobles in the city were staring at him, and there was a strong tendency that they would kill him to sacrifice the flag without giving them an explanation.
The demon reinforcements promised by Youhu have not arrived for a long time. Now not only the hostile factions, but also the neutral factions and even some of their own people are beginning to doubt Youhu and whether there are really demon reinforcements.
It can be said that if the reinforcements from the demon tribe don't come, they have the fox faction, and they are afraid that they will be destroyed.
"Hmph, tell Youhu, no matter whether I win or lose this battle, as long as the demon clan reinforcements still haven't arrived after the war, then I will vote for Dashang and there will be no room for change."
Let go. After saying these cruel words, Su Hou began to mobilize troops and horses, preparing to cooperate with the reinforcements, attacking from both inside and outside, and breaking the formation set up by Ao Bing outside the city in one fell swoop.
Not long after, reinforcements from the Su Kingdom arrived, not all of them, just the vanguard, from Jiudayi. Each family had 10,000 Lianxu, and barely managed to scrape together 90,000 Lianxu.
Not daring to stop, after arriving in Su City, these 90,000 soldiers directly launched an attack on the 100,000 merchant soldiers who were besieging the city.
Then, an embarrassing scene happened. No matter how hard they tried, the attacks they launched were unable to hurt the Dashang soldiers at all, and they couldn't even get in front of them.
Don’t forget that the location of the Great Shang soldiers at this moment is on the thirty-sixth floor of the void. In other words, only Daluo's ultimate power can penetrate the thirty-fifth layer of void and reach here.
It is obvious that even if the 90,000 virtual refining soldiers from Jiudayi work together, the energy and blood images condensed cannot burst out the power comparable to the ultimate power of Daluo, and they have not even touched the Daluo Golden Immortal. The edge is just Taiyi's ultimate.
According to the system, it takes one hundred thousand to refine the void to burst out with a power comparable to that of Daluo Jinxian. Ninety thousand is obviously not enough.
“Execute secret techniques to attract luck and blessings!”
The nine generals led by them had no choice but to use secret techniques to borrow the power of luck. However, Jiuyi is now being besieged by nine vassal states, and there is no way to give them much luck.
As a result, even if they receive the blessing of luck, the power they can improve is limited. They can barely advance from Taiyi Ultimate to the middle stage of Da Luo. There is still a big gap between Da Luo and Perfect.
In other words, even with the blessing of luck, their power still cannot touch the great merchants.
Of course, even if they really have power comparable to Daluo Perfection, they may not be able to penetrate the thirty-sixth layer of void.
Obviously the reinforcements have the power of Daluo Jinxian, so why do they have to rush forward slowly instead of moving directly to the void? Because Ao Bing came from the void, he specially guarded against others.
While besieging Su City, he also disrupted all the voids in the Su Kingdom, so that no one under the quasi-sage could use the magical power of the void.
Therefore, if the reinforcements want to come to help, they can only rush forward slowly, and cannot directly cross the void like Ao Bing.
As for why, the reinforcements that can manifest the image of Da Luo are so slow and take several months to arrive. That must be thanks to the heavy defense lines set up by the Soviet Union in the territory.
In order to prevent the powerful merchants from attacking Huanglong, there are powerful people from the Su Kingdom in the territory. I don’t know how many formations have been deployed, forming one after another powerful defense lines, or obstacles.
As a result, even Daluo Jinxian had to travel slowly after arriving in the territory of Yousu State.
Of course, it is not necessarily true. Daluo Jinxian can forcibly dismantle the formations blocking the front to speed up the process, but the soldiers of the Su Kingdom cannot.
It is easy to remove these obstacles, but what happens next? Without a line of defense, how can they resist the invasion of big merchants?
There is no way to forcibly dismantle the defense line. With reinforcements from the Soviet Union, they can only slowly detour, and the speed will naturally be slow. Yes, since it is an obstacle, it must hinder everyone indiscriminately, regardless of friend or foe.
......
The void in the Su Kingdom was disturbed by Ao Bing, which resulted in the need to use stronger power to reach the thirty-sixth level of void.
Therefore, if Da Luo reaches the ultimate level, he may not be able to reach the thirty-sixth level of void as easily as usual.
“Damn, how could this happen?”
On the tall tower of Su City, Su Hou was about to order the army to leave the city to attack Ao Bing’s command. When he saw his reinforcements, even if After trying his best to fail to hurt Dashang's soldiers, he was stunned.
He could not accept this reality. The dawn of victory was clearly in front of him, but how could the result be like this?
"Your Majesty, don't worry, we still have a chance. There are more reinforcements than this one. When the rest of the reinforcements arrive and we gather a million troops, we will definitely be able to reach the depths of the void and relieve the danger of Su City."
Fearing that Su Hou would lose confidence and surrender directly to the city, some princes persuaded him.
“An army of one million!”
Su Hou believed that with the combined power of nine cities, one hundred times, and one thousand small cities, we could indeed gather one million to refine the void, but how long would it take? Will the Grand Chamber of Commerce give him this time?
“Sacrifice all the slaves in the city!”
“There is not much food in the city anyway. Rather than letting them starve to death, it is better to use the waste and sacrifice them all. Used in exchange for powerful power.”
At this time, a noble gritted his teeth and said with a ferocious expression. Although the exact number of slaves in the city has not been calculated, it is estimated to be in the billions.
Sacrifice so many people at once, even if the backlash is shared equally among the nobles present, they will never feel better. But the matter has come to this, no matter how high the price is, it is better than losing the country.
"To whom should we sacrifice?"
"The disciples of Jiejiao are in the same spirit with Dashang and will never accept our sacrifice. The other gods would like to, but they dare to offend Dashang. "Business?"
Su Hou shook his head, thinking that this method is not advisable. The problem now is not whether they are willing to offer sacrifices, but that even if they are willing to offer sacrifices, there may not be any gods willing to accept them.
The demon clan is willing, but the demon clan should help them in the first place, why do they need them to sacrifice?
"Sacrifice to the ancestors underground, they will definitely respond."
Clenched his teeth, the noble continued.
Although the princes and nobles who abdicated died, their souls were not scattered. Instead, they turned into ghosts and gods and went to the underworld, where they continued to dominate.
However, because they have transformed into ghosts and gods, they will be excluded by the rules of the underworld and cannot leave the netherworld.
But there are exceptions to everything. If a large number of living people are sacrificed to them, then they can briefly return to the earth through the yang energy of the living people.
This nobleman’s method is to summon the dead princes and nobles from the Netherworld through sacrifices to continue fighting for them.
“Isn’t it appropriate to disturb the peace of our ancestors?”
Su Hou seemed a little hesitant and did not agree immediately.
