Chapter 1128. So many things in ancient and modern times (second update)
Above the sea of clouds, a ray of light flashed by. Meng Qi was checking the Inspiration King's savings while thinking about the two questions just now.
Asking the time when the Heavenly Court fell is the main purpose of this trip, to look back in time, witness the process of the collapse of the heavens, and find the trajectory of the scattered Dinghai Pearls, thereby determining the approximate scope and laying the foundation for returning to the future to find them. Asking the Demon Lord is the first When did Heaven have its own flash of inspiration?
I still remember that when I entered Journey to the West for the first time, I once asked a little demon who confused the demon lord's coming to heaven with his fall from heaven. He even thought that the former was the direct cause of the latter. This was obviously related to his sorting out of the ancient timeline. contradiction:
After indirect or direct verification by the ancient parties such as Mo Buddha and Sha Wujing, I believe that there was a battle to confer gods first, and heaven benefited. It formed a strong alliance with Yuanshi Tianzun and Daode Tianzun who were hiding behind the scenes, thus destroying the Buddhist demons and other forces. Completely suppressed and reached the most prosperous stage, but nothing in the world is eternal. The peak often means the beginning of decline. As the Emperor of Heaven advances in cultivation, he may no longer be satisfied with being the leader of the Yuanshi Heavenly Lord and the Moral Heavenly Lord. The person in front of the stage was just trying to dominate the whole life while the other side was hidden. As a result, there were things like the war in the underworld, and there were imperceptible cracks within the alliance.
At this delicate moment, the Demon Lord suddenly reached the other side and entered the heaven. He severely damaged the Emperor of Heaven with his own fall. At the same time, he exposed the conflict between the other party and the Yuanshi Heavenly Lord and the Daode Heavenly Lord. As a result, the situation changed. Buddhism began to make arrangements, and Taoism responded accordingly. The Heavenly Emperor Walking on the edge of the cliff, trying to use force to strike a balance, and amidst the chaos, a grandson monkey popped out of the innate stone of the Demon Queen Nuwa, and various subsequent events occurred, such as the battle between the underworld and the underworld. continuation, such as causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace, forcing the Emperor of Heaven to surrender, but who would have expected that the Emperor of Heaven would fall directly to the Buddha.
Afterwards, the Buddha, who had made great profits, finally reached the realm of Yuanshi Tianzun, and began to try to reduce the void and arrange the journey to the west. Not long after the journey to the west, for unknown reasons, the heaven suddenly fell, and it was suspected that several people from the other side They teamed up to break through the Nine Heavens, and the Emperor of Heaven sacrificed himself as a martyr and transformed into the Time Knife. In the process, no one knew whether his allies were suppressed or did not take action.
After the fall of heaven, the Buddha died, the demon sage came to the spiritual mountain, Ananda betrayed, and all the Buddhas fell together.
The apotheosis of the gods, the demon lord's attack on the sky, the journey to the west, the fall of heaven, and the battle of Lingshan. This is the timeline of ancient events that I have sorted out. But for the little demons in this world, since there is also a great sage Qitian showing off his power and proving his way. During the time when he became a Buddha during his journey to the west, they could not possibly be confused and think that the devil attacked the heaven and caused the heaven to fall.
If the memory didn't match up with the timeline, something must be fishy, so Meng Qi asked about the time when the Demon Lord came to heaven, and the Inspiration King's answer made him feel like "it was indeed the case."
In this world, the Demon Lord's attack occurred less than six years before the fall of Heaven!
The interval is so short, it is completely reasonable for the little demon hundreds of years later to think that they are the same thing, and Journey to the West was more than 800 years ago, long before the Demon Lord attacked the sky, and it is different from the timeline sequence he thinks contradiction.
So who is right and who is wrong?
Meng Qi would not hesitate to stick to his previous summary, because it was affirmed by the two direct parties, Mo Buddha and Sha Wujing, and the world of Journey to the West is derived from a period of history taken out by the Taoist God, and I don’t know how many specious things have been filled in. The confusion of events or historical fragments is completely understandable, not to mention that some people suspect that Daode Tianzun took out this historical new world to hide some secrets.
However, some details made him not so sure:
Regarding his speculation, Mo Buddha only personally admitted that he had colluded with the Demon Lord, betrayed the Emperor of Heaven, and that the Lingshan Incident had deceived the Buddhists and the demon clan. He had a non-committal attitude towards other matters. He only mentioned that the Emperor of Heaven was invigorated by the Demon Lord. After being seriously injured, I felt a little unable to defeat the Monkey King.
This seems to point to the chaos in the Heavenly Palace without a doubt, but if we dig deeper, there are too many explanations. Who can be sure that Sun Wukong did not fight the Emperor of Heaven for the second time after traveling to the west?
Such as the battle of falling heaven!
Even when there was a riot in the Heavenly Palace, it remains to be seen whether the Emperor of Heaven would go to war or not.
After all, at that time, the monkey's strength was definitely not as good as after Journey to the West. There was still a long way to go before the perfection of creation. Even if the Emperor of Heaven was seriously damaged due to the Demon Lord's incident, he was still in the home of the fairy world, with countless blessings, and only those on the other side could do it. No matter how hard it is to compete, there is no need to be afraid. The demon Buddha just said that it was a bit unbearable, so the emperor was worried about the mastermind behind driving the monkeys to cause trouble in the heavenly palace, so he decisively invited the Buddha to help. In this case, would he commit suicide? There is room for discussion on how to lower one's status and compete with the Monkey King.
What if it was a battle in which the heaven fell. The Great Sage Qitian killed the fighting Buddha and reached the state of perfect creation. He might even have the characteristics of the other side. At the same time, there were other people from the other side who were involved in the Emperor of Heaven. He managed two moves easily and was almost caught by the Emperor of Heaven. Down, it’s normal.
Therefore, the words of the Demon Buddha cannot be used as definite evidence of Journey to the West after the Demon Lord attacked the sky. On the contrary, Sha Wujing clearly and accurately explained this sequence, and as a legendary power, his memory will not be blurred and confused because of the extraction of history. It looks trustworthy.
But if you think about it carefully, whether it was Journey to the West, Demon Lord Attacking Heaven, or even when the Taoist God extracted this period of history, Sha Wujing had probably not yet realized the legend, and the legend itself does not involve the long river of time, and without the characteristics of the other side, When he succeeds in breaking through, will he be able to recover his chaotic and fuzzy memories?
What's more important is that Sha Wujing is the blind god of Wusheng Old Mother, and he can't fully trust him. Even if he himself doesn't want to deceive himself, he can't stop his old mother from secretly tampering with his memory.
The two most critical pieces of evidence are not rigorous enough, and some details are becoming more and more meaningful. For example, when Xiao Yao mentioned that the Demon Lord attacked the Queen of Heaven, Jiuling Yuan Sheng was sent to guard the gate of Jiuyou. So far, If it is still guarding there, if the demon lord attacks the sky before the journey to the west, when Tang Monk and Sun Wukong and his party encounter Jiuling Yuansheng, it should obviously be guarding the gate of Jiuyou, how can it easily escape?
For example, before the Demon Lord attacked the sky, Emperor Zhenwu mysteriously disappeared and went to the origin of life and death. Who was the founder of the Nine Heavens Dang Demon that Sun Wukong was looking for when he asked for reinforcements?
Although these are all the contents of Journey to the West that I have read, there are probably some embellished things. For example, there was no such thing as Jiu Ling Yuan Sage during Journey to the West, and the founder of Jiu Tian Dang Demon was never invited. However, there are some similar details, and they are all I can find something that can be verified in the future, which makes me no longer so sure.
What if the Journey to the West is placed before the Demon Lord attacks the sky?
Meng Qi fell into deep thought and deduced another possibility:
After the sweet period of the alliance, the Emperor of Heaven, who has been improving day by day, has the ambition to become the true king of the world. Buddhism does not want to see Taoism always ruling the heavens and the world, so small frictions begin to increase, such as the battle between the underworld and the underworld. Under such circumstances, Sun Wukong jumped out of the innate divine stone and became a pawn in games and struggles.
When he was causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he may have received the help of the Moral Heavenly Lord. The gods related to Taoism collectively released water, making it seem that the Heavenly Emperor could only take action himself. Once he took action, Sun Wukong's "mysterious master" might use this to attack the Heavenly Emperor and achieve a certain purpose. , and the Emperor of Heaven saw that the situation was wrong and immediately invited the Buddha of the West. Perhaps he completely turned to Buddhism, or perhaps he just exposed the connection with the Buddha and sought a new balance.
After traveling to the west, after countless years of planning, the Demon Lord attacked the sky. This time, the Emperor of Heaven showed terrifying strength. Without the help of Yuanshi Tianzun, Daode Tianzun and Buddha, he fought alone. A person from the other side?
Only those on the other side can compete with those on the other side. It is difficult for those on the other side to kill each other, and they can often only be sealed or suppressed. Even if the Emperor of Heaven pays a great price, even if he has the home advantage of the fairy world, and even if the demon lord has just landed on the other side for the first time, if there is no other With the help of the ancient beings, the one-on-one killing of a being from the other side is enough to show the strength of the Emperor of Heaven. I am afraid it can be compared with the Haotian God of the ancient era, and he has truly gained the power to dominate the entire world.
As for why the Demon Lord went to heaven, maybe it was because someone wanted to test something. For example, why did the Emperor of Heaven have the confidence to compete with the two Heavenly Lords in the first place, only to test out the Emperor's strength and his reliance on killing those on the other side?
After figuring out these secrets, or confirming that the secrets are directly related to Taoism and Fruition, it didn't take long for several people from the other side to join forces to break through the Nine Heavens and make the Emperor of Heaven martyred, perhaps including the Buddha?
Although there are no key details to connect the things together, after deducing it like this, it seems that we can really see the other side of the matter and find other explanations... Meng Qi took a breath and felt that the events in ancient times were more and more mysterious. Just thinking about it makes people's scalp numb, and after two historical extractions, it is even more chaotic and contradictory, making it difficult to determine who is true and who is false.
For me, if I want to go back in time and go further in the future, I'm afraid I can't avoid these things.
Unknowingly, he had escaped to the East China Sea, and the treasures in the Inspiration King's Crystal Palace had long been forgotten to be counted.
As the escape light descended, Meng Qi found the Xuanhai Clan, found out where the Crystal Palace was, and dived directly there.
Outside the Crystal Palace, two huge sea crabs were crawling and guarding the door. Meng Qi smiled slightly, walked over, and nodded:
"The poor Taoist Su Meng wants to see the Dragon King."
"This is a meeting ceremony."
He threw his hand, and two huge golden hammers flew out and landed in front of the Crystal Palace.
boom!
The earth trembled and the water shook, the Crystal Palace shook violently, and the forbidden laws around it became clear and extinguished, and then became clear again.
"Enemy attack!" screams rang out, and an old and surprised voice came out from the Dragon Palace: "Purple Light Golden Hammer? A magical weapon of inspiration?"
And the divine weapon of inspiration turned out to be so broken, and fell into the hands of a mysterious Taoist!
With his thoughts flashing, the Dragon King of the East China Sea stood up suddenly, ran towards the outside of the Crystal Palace, and walked backwards to meet him!
The inspiration has been lost. Such people must be treated politely!
I was delayed by something in the afternoon, so I will post the second update. The third update will be before one o'clock in the morning. You can watch it tomorrow
