The birth of the Eight Trigrams was partly to teach future generations how to predict good and bad luck.
Haotian’s main strategy is “I am the destiny”. When facing a problem, he first finds out the most acute problem and solves it with the most direct means.
First think about what you want to do, determine your goal, and then plan how to achieve it.
For example, there are some strong people in the box garden who are secretly doing things?
As long as I kill all the strong people who have the ability to cause trouble, those who want to cause trouble will definitely be killed by me.
It is not pure recklessness, but pure self-confidence. In addition to military force, it also includes his own wisdom, judgment and other factors, rather than tying himself up and confronting others.
Haotian could tell that he would not be able to win if he confronted the entire group of gods in the box garden head-on.
He felt that he could not win, but he did not compromise. Instead, he started looking for ways to win.
So Haotian gave up his two-digit spiritual power and established a host authority that could be effective for almost all the gods in the box garden.
The only error was that the world dragon patched up the sky, so he planned to abdicate from the throne of Emperor of Heaven and let Fuxi know.
This kind of organizer authority, which could potentially win against all the gods, also has extremely serious drawbacks, and Haotian doesn't dare to use it without Fuxi's prior precautions.
Haotian cursed Fuxi in his heart.
He himself is aware of the weaknesses of the sponsor's authority he obtained.
Generally it counts as two points, and after expanding to the limit it becomes three weaknesses. After some time has passed, he has made up for one of them himself.
As for the rest, he was powerless for the time being.
But Fuxi just wouldn't cooperate with him!
While feeling regretful in his heart, Haotian turned his attention to the absolute suppression of evil in the lower level of the box garden.
If the crusade fails...
Haotian shrugged.
Then flip the table!
Where there are weaknesses, there are weaknesses. The success rate will be greatly reduced, but it is not without success rate.
If it really doesn't work... just gamble with your confidence and see if Fuxi's ability to target him will work in actual combat.
Chapter 87
Haotian was ready to turn the table if necessary.
Under the table, Fuxi tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair.
He and Haotian have been playing chess for too long, and he is fully aware of Haotian's half-exposed plan, and he also knows Haotian's attitude.
To Haotian, the gods of the box garden are not as valuable as the box garden as an observation point of human history.
Haotian is unkind to the people in his own heaven, let alone other gods.
It's a waste of time and effort, and it's more than enough to cause trouble - that's roughly the attitude.
If humanity fails in the final trial, Azdahaka's current inflated spiritual power may lead to decadence.
Then, naturally, the gods' attitude would be to create a new box garden.
However, creating a completely new diorama is not that easy.
As one of the creators of the box garden, Fuxi admitted that the power of the gods in the box garden is now stronger than they were back then.
But it didn't work.
When they created the core of the box garden, they were not even sure if it would work.
Among the participants, few care about interests. They just want to build a focal point for human history to better guide human history.
This is the first time to create a focal point, and it is hard to say whether the plan can be implemented, let alone the division of benefits after creating the sand garden.
The gods in today’s box garden are different. Although they are powerful, if they want to build a new box garden, the first step they cannot avoid is how to divide the benefits.
When the sandbox was created, the four cosmic truths that served as the main axis of the sandbox were monopolized by the strongest people at that time.
The powerful person who provided the truth of the universe did not plant any backdoors in it. After all, he was not sure whether the plan could be completed. If he had really planted a backdoor, Zoroastrianism would not have been destroyed by Yahweh.
But when creating a new box garden, it would be strange if the gods didn’t bury a backdoor in it!
When creating a new box garden, the more critical the matter is, the more the gods will want to be responsible for it.
While hoping to be responsible, the gods are also sure to have backdoors buried by other gods.
The more backdoors there are in the new sandbox, the less human history will recognize the conclusion of the sandbox when it comes to concluding human history, and this vicious cycle will continue.
Today, the strength of the gods in the box garden is stronger than the few groups of gods when the box garden was created. But if the gods in the box garden are asked to create a new box garden... Fuxi is very sure that the new box garden will be shabby.
Just as he believes that if human history is handed over to today's human heroes, a war will break out that will interrupt the progress of civilization.
Creating a new box garden is the bottom line for a large number of bigwigs in the box garden.
What do you plan to do when creating a new box garden?
Do you feel that the current box garden is not able to exploit human history enough, and want to create a new box garden with rules that are more favorable to gods and Buddhas?
——Okay, now that you have made your attitude clear, there is nothing more to talk to you about!
Regarding the current situation in the box garden, some gods feel that the gods have gained too much from human history, while others feel that the gods are too bound by the box garden.
Still on the stage of the small garden, that means both sides still have something to talk about. If someone is trying to destroy the small garden... then there is nothing to talk about.
It’s better to start a war directly!
On Haotian's side, when the current box garden is about to be destroyed, Fuxi dares to guarantee that Haotian will not let other gods and Buddhas escape from the pursuit of Decadent Wind, but will directly help Decadent Wind to block them!
Will the decadent trend destroy the small garden?
This is nothing.
If all the gods in the small garden ran away, the power of decadence would affect the small garden and human history.
Most of the gods in the box garden were left behind. The wind of decadence killed these gods and their power was almost depleted. Human history sensed the death of these gods and Buddhas... Human history will naturally continue to cooperate with the box garden.
The conclusion of the sandbox is essentially beneficial to human history, but the gods have taken too much merit from human history, and human history is gradually unable to afford it.
If most of the gods were dead, would there still be so many troubles?
Fuxi also had some things he didn't understand about the spiritual level of humanity's final trial, but he believed that as long as human history felt that cooperation with the box garden was beneficial, there would definitely be a turning point even if humanity's final trial expanded to the point of bringing about a decadent trend.
There is nothing absolute in the world, it’s just a matter of price!
The existing box garden cannot be abandoned. That is not only Haotian’s bottom line, but also Fuxi’s bottom line.
However, Huoyun Palace has been lacking in achievements recently.
The world dragon became a two-digit number. For Haotian, it just required him to spend energy to cover up the whereabouts of the world dragon, and there were no two-digit numbers in the heaven when Haotian went deep into human history.
But the Jiuzhou Dragon Vein was the key to Fuxi's plan. Xuanwu became the world dragon, and the number increased from three digits to two digits, forcing him to make huge adjustments to his plan.
When Huangdi went to the West District to participate in the anti-utopia war, he directly took away 70% of the spiritual power share and used it to fill the plan.
——The Yellow Emperor, with only 30% of his spiritual power, paraded through the dystopian battlefield.
That is Yahweh, whose behavior has its own rules. If it were any other demon king who is arrogant and self-centered, Fuxi would not dare to do this.
Only 30% of the spiritual power can barely protect itself. What if humans reveal some trump cards in the final trial...
By the way, the final trial of mankind comes with a move, 'Huangdi, I have long heard of your great name, today I come here to compete with you' - Huangdi may not even be able to escape.
That is a pure paper tiger. Fuxi estimated that even if Huangdi, with only 30% of his spiritual power, really participated in the battle, he would most likely not be able to defeat the Indian Trimurti.
In order to adjust the plan, Huoyun Palace really had no spare energy to come in.
If the crusade against absolute evil really fails and the wind of decadence is about to come, Fuxi will not be able to come up with his own plan at all and can only hold his nose and cooperate with Haotian's plan.
However, Haotian is an extremely selfish person. The rules he set are not based on human feelings, but Haotian himself also follows those rules.
When talking about etiquette today, people often think of Confucianism, gentlemen, poetry, books, rites and the Book of Changes.
——But the etymology of the word "ritual" does not lie in the hands of Confucius, but in the hands of Haotian.
In the early Han Dynasty, in order to unify thoughts, Fuxi borrowed the etymology of the word "ru" from Confucius.
Not long after, he was ambushed by Haotian, who snatched away the definition of Confucianism.
The supreme god of Confucianism for thousands of years.
The reason why Fuxi failed to guard against the etymology of Haotian was that he did not expect that Haotian had mastered the etymology of the word "li".
Confucianism was taken away by Haotian, but etiquette belongs to Haotian himself.
The Confucian ritual is to restrain oneself and return to ritual, and what is returned is the Zhou ritual.
It was during the Zhou Dynasty that Haotian became the chief deity of the Nine Provinces, and the definition of ritual also officially began from the Zhou Dynasty.
Before the Zhou Dynasty, being strong meant more about power and being able to do things that others were not allowed to do.
At that time, there were various legal constraints, which only applied to lower-level officials but not to higher-level officials, and doctors were not subject to punishment.
The birth of etiquette is the self-restraint of those in power.
The purpose of etiquette is not to allow oneself to do something, but to stipulate what one cannot do.
During the Zhou Dynasty, Zhou rituals flourished, and people began to demand all kinds of etiquette from themselves, restricting themselves from doing this and that - then the Zhou people could look at other ethnic groups that did not observe etiquette and look down on them with disdain, calling them barbarians!
The etiquette in human history is the rules of heaven in the box.
The biggest difference is that in human history, being impolite was often just looked down upon, but it was not enforced.
If the gods in the box garden want to break the rules of heaven, they have to consider the gap in strength between themselves and Haotian.
But whether it is heavenly rules or etiquette, in essence they are requirements for oneself.
There are slight differences. In human history, some people use courtesy to demand things of themselves but do not force others to do so. However, there are also people who use courtesy to demand things of others but do not require themselves to do so.
In the box garden, Haotian and other gods in heaven are treated equally.
This is Haotian's logic.
Fuxi was very sure that Haotian was planning to kill most of the gods and Buddhas in the box garden, and was also planning to recruit him into the group.
At the same time, Haotian was definitely thinking that if humans failed in the final trial, he would just flip the table.
Not rebuilding the box garden is Haotian’s bottom line.
Haotian must also know that not rebuilding the box garden is his bottom line.
