Chapter 274 Solve the doubts
Jiang Jie's figure now appeared in the hall. It was the real Jiang Jie, not Mei Qiulu.

The golden light around him was like a cloud. In the golden mist, countless golden dots appeared and disappeared, connected to each other, like a constellation that flickered. But when you look closely, you will find that it is not any group of star maps in the sky, but more like the connection between Li Wuxiang and everything in the world that he had seen before.

After he appeared, he looked around and nodded slightly: "This is what the old capital looked like before. It's really magnificent."

Then he looked at the throne where Li Wuxiang was sitting: "When Your Majesty sits here, he is more like the Supreme Emperor, the Lord of the Supreme. When I was on the Great Tribulation Mountain, I wanted Your Majesty to become the Emperor of Man again and seize his luck - but Your Majesty's current arrangement is more suitable for me than the arrangement on the Great Tribulation Mountain. Well, let's end it here."

There was a throbbing in his mind, and Li Wuxiang spoke up, speaking for Li Ye: "You are not ready to bear the heavy responsibility of the country, I am afraid it will be difficult to end it today."

"Your Majesty is here, and I am ready."

This time Li Ye did not speak, but spoke in Li Wuxiang's mind: "Do you know why he didn't kill me earlier on the Great Tribulation Mountain, but had to drive me onto you, perform a sacrifice, and then take action?"

Li Ye seemed to be teaching and instructing again. Li Wuxiang couldn't help but have a bad feeling in his heart, but he could only say: "I don't know."

"Because of the matter of incense and vows. When you mentioned incense and vows, you mentioned them together. But in fact, they are two different things. Jiang Jie is the seventh in the Netherworld. In the past, he controlled some souls in the Netherworld. These souls can be regarded as part of the destiny of humanity. Therefore, he could say that he had Taiyi's true spirit in his body. In fact, it is even more real than that - he himself is the true spirit."

"Your Majesty--" Jiang Jie said.

"Since you have chased me here, just wait a little longer." Li Wuxiang spoke on behalf of Li Ye, "This is the old capital, and I am still the supreme ruler here. My words are now an imperial decree - do you want to disrupt the ritual now?"

After hearing this, Jiang Jie actually nodded and said, "Your Majesty, please teach him whatever you want to teach him. But after he is reborn, he will not remember anything once he enters the womb."

So Li Ye continued in his mind: "Why did a true spirit like him come to the Sword Sect to be the leader? It's because he only had the power of vows, but no incense."

"There are 900 million people in the Netherworld, and Jiang Jie, the Seventh Netherworld, governs nearly 100 million people, which is almost equal to the living people in the world today. And there is no living person in the world today, even those in the Six Departments, who doesn't know me. Therefore, in the past, his power was almost equal to mine. But do you know why he was not a spiritual god in the past, but only Jiang Jie, and I am Donghuang Taiyi?"

"It's because I have a reputation. Both reputation and reality are necessary to achieve the Golden Immortal. The world worships you and worships you, which is the incense and the reputation. This name is connected with the thoughts of millions of people, and only then does it have power. And this name was earned by me bit by bit back then. Do you understand?"

"Is it... the name that means "master has a legitimate reason"? " Li Wuxiang asked.

"That's it."

"Then I may understand a little bit - others must recognize you and worship you before they will willingly let you dominate them. Just like a cultivator with a firm mind, no matter how strong the external evil is, it cannot forcibly take over his body. So when Jiang Jie wanted to forcibly take Kong Xu, something went wrong. So... the more famous you are, the more powerful your authority will be?"

"Yes, just like the throne," Li Ye said. "A general with 100,000 elite cavalry can overthrow the world at any time, but if he is not legitimate and just, he cannot command the empire."

Li Wuxiang wanted to say that if it was the Shogun, it might not be the case, but Jiang Jie was standing in the hall waiting. He knew that now was not the time to be a quibble, but to understand the spirit, so he said, "Then I understand."

"So he came from the netherworld to the world of the living, became the leader of the Sword Sect, and hid his identity as the Seventh Lord of Hell. I have been suppressed for three thousand years, and Jiang Jie, the leader of Taiyi Sect, is the number one person in the world. Even the swordsmen in the Sword Sect have gradually changed from worshipping me to worshipping Jiang Jie - they may not be able to tell the difference themselves. As for the six mysterious sects, they are more afraid of Jiang Jie of the time than of me. This is how he gradually takes away my name and power."

Li Wuxiang said, "Like the regent."

"Yes. I saw that he was about to become powerful, so I decided to give it a try. That's why I sent you to the Nether Nine Abyss, hoping that the Xuanjiao people would find him - but he chose to fake his death and caused chaos in the world. As a result of this chaos, there are fewer living people in the world and more souls in the underworld, so he is stronger than me."

"Wait a minute... you... about You Jiuyuan, didn't you trigger the East Emperor Seal just to get here? Are you saying that this matter is both this and that? What's going on?"

Li Ye was silent for a moment: "Think about your house, the bedroom, the kitchen, the living room, they are there. The things that happened in the past and now can also be regarded as being there."

"You mean... everything that happens in this world, in the past, present, and future, is predetermined? When you become a Golden Immortal, it's like you become something higher-dimensional. Time is no longer linear for you. You can go to any time at any time? And see them all at the same time?" Li Wuxiang slowly took a breath of cold air in his heart - he had heard of this in his hometown, but he always felt that such a statement was too discouraging! But if it's true now, then... then in this world...

"Are you feeling depressed? Then think about your home, think about what I just said - the bedroom, the kitchen, the living room. They are there, and they are destined to be there. They will not change. But if you sleep in the bedroom today, can you not sleep in the kitchen tomorrow? Is the bedroom only for sleeping and the kitchen only for cooking?"

Li Wuxiang prides himself on his quick reaction, but after hearing this, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "You mean, one thing is destined to be there, but you can use it to produce different results and achieve different goals. Just like you can use it to expose You Jiuyuan, and you can also use it to come to the ancient capital of the Ye Dynasty..."

"That's all you can understand now, but that's right, isn't it? So why feel discouraged? Now that you are in this world, you also know that the world is vast but has its limits. Do you feel imprisoned by this?"

"Well... Actually, you should know this, right? The world really has no limits. It is finite but unbounded."

Li Ye seemed to smile: "Then the same goes for the things you think are destined to happen. Just like when you stay in Jinshui, all you can touch is the land around Jinshui, Jiang Jie and I can't freely look at the past and the future. The less power you have, the less you can control, and the things in this world are endless. This is why fate is determined, but luck can be changed - a person is destined to die at the age of eighty, but he can die for real, or he can become an immortal, do you understand?"

"Okay, I guess I understand. Then I..."

"Do you want to hear it?"

"Do not want to."

"It doesn't hurt to listen."

"I do not--"

"You will achieve the destiny of humanity and become a Golden Immortal. But whether you are a dead Golden Immortal or a living Golden Immortal is hard to say."

Li Wuxiang's heart skipped a beat. He felt his mind go blank, and for a moment he didn't know what to think. In the end, he could only say, "Then we... must win today, right?"

"Jiang Jie wants me to become an emperor and then call me Bintian, because this is a ritual. Only by killing me as an emperor on this throne, will the Donghuang Taiyi in the world be eliminated, and Dutian Siming will completely take over my authority. At that time, the world will only know Siming, but not Taiyi. Otherwise, he will fight for this name bit by bit, just like I did before. But before he wins it, I'm afraid he will die in the hands of Xuanjiao. So, he has to take over my name."

"——Don't ask why. Just like you wouldn't ask why ripe fruits fall to the ground instead of flying up into the sky. This is the iron law of this world, the same as the iron laws where you came from."

"So if you lose today, you may not be able to become a Golden Immortal - it is also your fate to become a dead Golden Immortal and be used by Jiang Jie to confuse the Xuan Sect."

Li Wuxiang sighed in his heart: "So you are telling me about your last wishes." "I guess so. In this world, it doesn't matter whether you tell me about your last wishes or not. It's just that our fate is here, and you helped me this time, so just treat it as a reward."

His tone made Li Wuxiang feel even worse.

In the past, he was truly fearless - because of the external evil, he always felt that he would not die. What was there to be afraid of if he died? He could still go to Lingshan, and perhaps be reborn.

But this game is really too advanced.

He has no guarantee anymore.

According to Li Ye, he might not die completely, but that would be more terrifying than death... He would be turned into a "dead thing" by Jiang Jie's authority, replacing the authority of Donghuang Taiyi Dutian Siming?
That means there will be no chance of recovery!

"Wait, if I'm really going to die, I want to die knowing clearly - why did they turn against you in the first place?"

"Even Tian Siming doesn't dare to listen to this matter. Do you dare to listen? But even if you dare to listen, I dare not tell you." Li Ye seemed to hesitate for a moment, "You always like to ask why, which is why I chose you to help me. In this case, I can tell you a little bit."

"Because Jiang Jie doesn't dare to listen to what he said, I will do something that will scare the current Xuanjiao emperors. For example, I will seize the authority of the Netherworld Earth Mother."

"My authority is not as good as Jiang Jie's now, but he can only chase me. You didn't ask me why. For example, Jiang Jie is the seventh king of the Netherworld Sect, and the authority of the Netherworld Earth Mother also controls reincarnation. Why is his magical power far inferior to mine in this matter?"

"Because in the past, this authority belonged to the Netherworld, and I took it away. Now, this authority of reincarnation is attached to the destiny of humanity. As long as I am still Donghuang Taiyi, this authority is mine."

"When he was on the Great Tribulation Mountain, Jiang Jie used the Star Raft to create his own world. So on the Great Tribulation Mountain, in that world, he had the name of the God of Destiny and could use this authority. But when he left the Star Raft and came to the outside world, he could only chase me."

"So as long as Donghuang Taiyi is alive, the authority of reincarnation will be difficult to use. Even the Seventh Lord of Hell cannot use it. Therefore, the great emperors of Xuanjiao were very afraid of me in the past."

All the vague things that had been there before became clear in Li Wuxiang's mind because of these words.

Therefore, the Star Chariot had long been placed in the Great Tribulation Mountain, forming a world of its own similar to the Spiritual Mountain and the Nether Nine Abyss.

These days, he, Senior Sister Mei, the people from the Sword Sect, and the thirty-six sects were not actually staying in the Dajie Mountain Taoist temple, but in the Dutian Siming Taoist temple.

Therefore, after fighting with Donghuang Taiyi and winning in Lingshan, Dutian Siming's authority in this Taoist temple immediately surpassed Donghuang Taiyi and he became "famous" - everyone except himself knew about Dutian Siming, and everyone knew that he had existed for a long time and it was a fait accompli.

The only thing was that while he was fascinated, he still had some doubts in his heart... Or maybe it was because Li Guichen had invited the external evil before, so he was able to come to the Taoist temple of Dutian Siming in Dajie Mountain through him.

only--

"But we are now in Youjiuyuan. This is the residence of the Sword Sect, which was run by Jiang Jie in the past... Isn't this considered Jiang Jie's dojo?"

"Yeah. But it's mine too."

"so?"

"That's all. Not everything in this world can be won by strategizing. Sometimes, you have to fight head-on." Li Ye hesitated for a moment, "Li Wuxiang."

"……you say."

"If I fail here, you can try to ask Jiang Jie for help."

"Please... Jiang Jie!?"

Li Wuxiang never thought that he would say such words at this time. Such a short time... one day? Or a few hours? Or even shorter?
He felt that many of his impressions had been overturned.

He used to think that Wai Xie was insidious, cunning, cold and cruel, but now he felt that this Li Ye in him... He might not be a soft-hearted person, but he was not what he thought before.

So far, Li Ye has not said the thing he "dare not say", but Li Wuxiang has a hunch... that he is a bit like the tragic hero who walks alone, carrying responsibilities that are not understood by the world.

——If the feeling this time is correct.

As for Jiang Jie, he used to think that Jiang Jiaozhu was gentle, kind, and morally responsible, but now...

"Jiang Jie is not an evil person. An evil person cannot become the King of Hell." Li Ye sighed slightly - this was the first time that the emperor sighed in Li Wuxiang's memory. "Even the emperors of the six ministries are not evil in my opinion. They just have different standpoints."

"But in this world, different positions are real, and that's the power of incense and vows. So this can be fatal."

"Jiang Jie wanted to save the world with his own methods, and he was willing to make more sacrifices for this. You can say that he was thinking out of the ordinary, but if he succeeded, can you still say that he was thinking out of the ordinary? As for me, the same is true."

"So when the worst happens, you can go and ask him for help. You are Kong, and if you tell him about this, you may not be unable to survive."

Li Wuxiang wanted to speak, but his mind was shaken and his body was numb. Li Ye took over his body again and stood up straight on the throne: "Du Tian Siming, let's fight."

……

Too many people have said they don’t understand these past two days, so I’ve delayed the progress today to explain things and put them in a more straightforward manner.
