Chapter 268: Inside the Fire Cloud Cave, the Three Emperors preach!
Qingzhou.

A hidden green light flew across the sky, covering a distance of a thousand miles in an instant, and landed in front of a high mountain.

It manifested itself as a slightly round green divine bird with arms under its wings, and a young Taoist priest wearing a bright red Taoist robe. They were Yang Xuan and Qing Luan.

Yang Xuan couldn’t figure out the exact location of Huoyun Cave.

Even though Emperor Shun had given him the beacon of the Fire Cloud Cave, he had searched for many years in Qingzhou before he found the place. However, the beacon did not tell him how to enter the Fire Cloud Cave.

However, Yang Xuan was not worried. With the cultivation level of the Three Emperors Sub-Sage, they should have been able to sense it when he arrived here and had the idea of ​​entering the Fire Cloud Cave.

Even if Yang Xuan did nothing now and just walked around, he might be able to reach the Fire Cloud Cave.

“The guest follows the host’s wishes, let’s wait and see.”

Yang Xuan was not too anxious. He sat cross-legged on the ground and decided to wait a few years. For the ancient times that used the Yuanhui calendar, a few years was really nothing.

at the same time.

In the Fire Cloud Cave.

Seven figures with different temperaments were sitting in a row in front of a stone table.

In front of them, there was a water mirror, and in the picture was the figure of Yang Xuan sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, practicing.

“As expected of a great sage of our human race, such a character is truly extraordinary!”

“If it were those young men in the tribe, they would have yelled in panic if they came to Danyashi Mountain and couldn’t find the entrance to Huoyun Cave.”

Fuxi looked at Yang Xuan’s peaceful state of mind and did not hesitate to express his admiration.

“Hahaha! The first time I saw the Immortal, I knew he was no ordinary person. He will definitely achieve something in the future!”

Dayu laughed out loud, looking proud of himself, and the others also smiled.

The reason they looked at him like that was not because they had any intention of testing him, but because Yang Xuan’s movements were too fast.

The Tianji Pearl on Yang Xuan’s body, after being fused with the black lotus, was upgraded from a top-grade innate spiritual treasure to a top-grade innate spiritual treasure with thirty-eight innate restrictions.

The effect of shielding the secrets of heaven and restraining the breath became stronger. Even the three human emperors of Huoyun Cave would find it difficult to detect his arrival at the first time if they did not pay special attention.

As a result, as soon as the people in the Fire Cloud Cave sensed Yang Xuan’s arrival, he sat down cross-legged to comprehend the great Dao, without even giving the Three Emperors a chance to invite him!
“It’s just that my temperament is too calm…”

Shennong smiled and shook his head. He had been fascinated by Yang Xuan for a long time.

Although Yang Xuan’s cultivation level was far inferior to his, he had regarded him as a fellow Taoist since Yang Xuan was still a Golden Immortal and helped the human race to protect the Jiuzhou veins and perfect the Nine Cauldrons Formation.

Not to mention that Yang Xuan has created a trade system over the years to make the human race more stable.

It also invites humans to go to heaven and build temples in Kyushu, forming a social scene where humans and gods coexist and speeding up the construction of Kyushu.

A few years ago, he arranged for the human race to help build the underworld and gave them many city god positions, allowing them to interfere in the affairs of the human race in Jiuzhou after death to a certain extent.

All of these things, one by one, have helped the human race and are obvious to all.

Shennong even felt that if Yang Xuan had not been born at the wrong time and was not a human, there would definitely be a place for Yang Xuan among the Human Emperors.

“Let me take him in. We’ll wait for him to come. But we’ve been waiting for so many years. If he leaves for something now, we don’t know how long we’ll have to wait!”

After saying that, Shennong stretched out his big, calloused hand and reached into the water mirror in front of him.

at the same time.

Yang Xuan, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, felt something in his heart. He looked up into the sky and saw a big hand with some calluses suddenly reaching out from the void in front of him.

Before he could react, he was grabbed.

All of a sudden.

Yang Xuan felt a darkness before his eyes, and when he could see his surroundings clearly again, he had arrived in an ancient cave and appeared in front of a stone table.

Opposite this stone table, there sat seven humans with different temperaments, looking him up and down.

The first one on the left is an old man wearing animal skins, with long hair, and exuding a warm aura.

The second and third persons, one was wearing a straw raincoat, and the other was wrapped in coarse linen.

The aura of these three is powerful, far beyond that of the Golden Immortals. They are three quasi-saints!
The auras of the three people who came next were even stronger, and the surrounding void seemed to tremble because of their presence. They were:
One is a middle-aged man wearing a Bagua suit, with a starry eye and a Bagua stone plate hanging from his waist. There is a special Taoist charm around him, giving people a feeling that the mysteries of the heavens are hard to predict.

One is an old farmer with a haggard face and a straw hat on his head. He is surrounded by the scent of grass and trees, as if as long as you stay by his side, there will be no pain or illness.

One is an emperor wearing a crown and a dark yellow robe with dragon patterns. He exudes a domineering aura, as if he wants to kill all invading enemies.

The one on the far right is a burly man with thick hair. He is also an old acquaintance of Yang Xuan – Dayu.

Yang Xuan immediately understood where he was and roughly guessed the identities of these people. He bowed to the people in front of him.

“I am Yang Xuan, the poor Taoist priest. I greet the Three Sovereigns, the Three Ancestors, and His Majesty Dayu!”

After Yang Xuan bowed, Shennong smiled and joked:
“It’s really not easy for us old guys to see you!”

After being teased by Shennong, Yang Xuan became more relaxed and soon became familiar with these human ancestors, who were at least quasi-saints.

After some casual chatting, Yang Xuan casually talked about what he saw and heard in Jiuzhou this time. At the end, he showed a bit of worry.

“My dear seniors, although Daxia is now stable, the current emperor has not made any major mistakes.”

“But the reputation of the mall has grown too fast. The name of the mall owner is now known to everyone in Jiuzhou. The mall has become the commercial center of many surrounding towns.”

“I am a little worried. If this continues, Daxia’s ruling status will be affected. Will this be detrimental to the human race?”

Shennong and others were slightly stunned when they heard this. They didn’t expect that Yang Xuan was just on his way to Huoyun Cave and strolled around Jiuzhou and discovered this.

After they thought for a moment, Shennong shook his head and said meaningfully:

“Human nature is fickle. The rise and fall of Daxia is the business of the younger generation. It is better for us old guys not to interfere in the affairs of Jiuzhou.”

“Humanity is fickle…”

Yang Xuan’s eyes flickered and his face showed a thoughtful expression.

In the past, he felt it was strange because the human race had three sovereigns and five emperors in power, and after abdicating, the emperors of all generations returned to the Fire Cloud Cave and did not die.

Even if Xia Jie really acted absurdly and it was useless to tell his ministers, could the emperors of all dynasties and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in the Huoyun Cave not control him?

Logically speaking, with these human emperors watching over, Daxia would not have a tyrant ruler, and Daxia should last forever. How could Shang Tang find an opportunity to take advantage of it? Now that he heard Shennong say this, Yang Xuan suddenly understood that the change of dynasties in Jiuzhou was the result of the tacit approval of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and the human emperors of all generations.

The reason why they did this was because of the four words “human nature is fickle”!
As the carrier of humanity, the human race cannot remain unchanged, and there will not be a dynasty that lasts forever. Only in this way can it be more in line with humanity.

After understanding the reason for the change of dynasties, Yang Xuan suddenly came up with a bold but reasonable guess.

“Perhaps… the so-called catastrophe is not caused by anyone, but is a process of self-evolution of the great world!”

Yang Xuan didn’t know much about the catastrophe, but what he was sure of was that according to later records, after Shang Tang conquered Xia, the living conditions of the human race became better.

Later, Xiqi destroyed Shang, which also brought about good changes.

From the perspective of later generations, the wars that occurred during the change of dynasties were the catastrophes that the human race experienced in order to change and progress, and they were somewhat similar to the great catastrophes of the ancient times.

Combining this point, Yang Xuan came up with this idea. It makes sense why every time a catastrophe comes, it has such a great impact on the prehistoric world.

After the dragon and phoenix catastrophe, the ancient world was filled with thousands of races.

After the great calamity of wizards and demons, the prehistoric world had a heavenly court to manage the order of the prehistoric world.

After the catastrophe of the Conferred Gods, the Heavenly Court became worthy of its name and became the orthodox institution that exercised authority on behalf of God and managed the ancient world.

However, Yang Xuan felt there was one point that was contradictory. If the catastrophe was sent down by the prehistoric world on its own initiative in order to allow the prehistoric world to evolve further and become more perfect, then why would there be the Dharma Ending Age in later generations?
The Earth in later generations is not even as big as a famous mountain in the prehistoric times, and there is not a single bit of spiritual energy left. Compared with the prehistoric times today, the gap is simply enormous.

“Is it because the Earth I sat on in my previous life was not the entire picture of the prehistoric world, or is it because something went wrong in the subsequent catastrophes of the prehistoric world?”

Yang Xuan had some vague guesses, but he didn’t think much about it.

With his current level of cultivation, being able to survive the catastrophe and rescue a few people from it is already the limit.

As for changing the calamity, how could he intervene in it now? Do you think your life is too long?
At the same time, through Shennong’s answer, Yang Xuan also understood that it was unrealistic to ask the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to come forward to delay the time for Shang Tang to destroy Xia.

Time is also fate!
Since it cannot be changed, there is no need to care too much about it.

Yang Xuan simply brushed aside this topic, nodded to show that he understood, and didn’t say any more about it.

At this moment, Suiren suddenly stretched out his right hand and said seriously:

“The human race owes you a lot. I don’t have any spiritual items on me, but this human race’s legacy is something I can take away. If you don’t mind, I’ll give you a piece of it.”

As he spoke, a ray of warm and bright flame condensed in Suiren’s hand, which seemed to gather the spiritual will of thousands of human beings to strive for self-improvement.

Yang Xuan has made too many contributions to the human race. Although he is not a human, he is better than many great sages of the human race, and his achievements are even greater than those of many human emperors.

Since he has made great contributions to the human race, it is no big deal to give him a wisp of fire. Although the fire of the human race is an acquired divine fire, it will be the most top-notch divine fire in the prehistoric world, and can be on par with the true fire of the sun and other divine fires.

The destiny of the human race is endless, and the flame is eternal. As long as you obtain a ray of it, you will be able to understand the method of condensing the flame. No living creature can refuse such a treasure.

At first, Yang Xuan was indeed attracted to it, but he quickly came to his senses.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head slightly.
“Thank you for your kindness, First Ancestor Suiren. I already have the Sun’s True Fire and the Nine Heavens Divine Fire. I can’t chew too much.”

“Besides, I have a special background and am not of the human race. It is not right for me to inherit the human race. I ask the senior to take it back.”

The Xinhuo is not only the most top-notch sacred fire in the prehistoric world, but also the symbol of the human race. It contains the secrets of the human race and is too important to the human race. No one knows how many creatures in the prehistoric world are eyeing it, and it may not be a good thing for it to get it.

Moreover, Yang Xuan is not of human origin. Even if he gets the torch, it will be difficult for him to exert his due power. So why bother with more?

When Suiren saw that Yang Xuan’s eyes were clear and he was not moved by the spirit of human race at all, he was surprised.

He had a higher opinion of Yang Xuan. He thought that even under the temptation of Xinhuo, he could still think about the human race. Yang Xuan was indeed worthy of the title of the great sage of the human race.

Suiren thought for a moment, and finally put away the firewood in his palm.

Since Yang Xuan doesn’t want it now, I’ll find an opportunity to give it to him later.

It is reasonable for the great sage of the human race to be in charge of a strand of human heritage!

“Mall…”

There seemed to be a flicker of fire in Suiren’s eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Yang Xuan did not notice anything strange about Suiren. Although he did not accept the hot potato of Suihuo, he had no intention of missing this opportunity.

The main purpose of his coming to Huoyun Cave this time was to ask questions about cultivation.

He may not need the flint, but he cannot do without this.

Yang Xuan did not hide his thoughts and asked directly:
“I have some questions about cultivation. I wonder if you seniors can help me solve them?”

“Just tell me, little friend!”

Suiren didn’t even think about it. Now that the fire hadn’t been delivered, how could he miss this rare opportunity to repay the favor?

Besides, if you want Yang Xuan to accept the human race’s legacy, you have to show more sincerity.

Shennong and others had the same idea, so it was naturally impossible for them to refuse.

As the four quasi-saints and three sub-saints began to preach, many strange phenomena appeared in the Fire Cloud Cave.

There are thunder and wind from heaven and earth, water, fire, mountains and marshes that evolve into the Eight Trigrams. There is also a pleasant sound of a piano, overgrown grass, and sword energy everywhere.

When a quasi-saint preaches, the visions are extraordinary; and when a sub-saint preaches, the visions produced are not much inferior to those of a saint.

A vast purple aura filled the Fire Cloud Cave Heaven, and auspicious golden light surged from the sky, illuminating billions of miles.

For a moment, in the Fire Cloud Cave.

The great sages of the human race who were sipping tea, painting, or writing all stopped what they were doing at the same moment and looked towards the deepest part of the Fire Cloud Cave.

“Who is this person who is visiting and can actually make the Three Sovereigns, the Three Ancestors and Emperor Yu preach together?!!”

A hint of doubt appeared in the hearts of the great sages of the human race, but it only lasted for a moment, and they threw these distracting thoughts out of their minds and concentrated on listening to the Tao.

If you miss this opportunity, I’m afraid you won’t have it again in the future.

As the main audience of the sermons, Yang Xuan, with the blessing of the Source of Enlightenment and the Golden Wheel of Morality, gained far more than what the auditors could achieve, and saved himself from several years of hard practice!
