Chapter 759: Eight Princes
Taotie is an ancient ferocious beast. According to legend, it is the son of Zhenkong.
The real dragon is lustful. The dragon has nine sons, each one is different, among them is Taotie.
Unfortunately, Taotie did not inherit the appearance of a real dragon. Instead, it looked extremely ugly and scary.
Moreover, Taotie is insatiable, eats everything, and is never full.
If its mouth is big enough, it can even eat up the entire world!
Chen Xuan has a martial art called "Taotie Swallowing the Sky".
The dark god-level strongman "Luo" once released a poisonous gas that had condensed for millions of years above the Divine Court. Even if the Martial Emperor was contaminated by a trace of it, his body would quickly rot.
The massive amount of poisonous gas released was clearly intended to kill the divine city under the temple and all the billions of lives in Tianzhou.
As a last resort, Chen Xuan used the move of "Taotie Swallowing the Sky" to swallow all the poisonous gas released by "Luo" into his inner world.
Now Chen Xuan still has the poison gas and can use it at any time.
It can be said that Taotie's ability is to swallow, he can eat anything, and his stomach is vast and boundless, and can hold everything.
Chen Xuan never expected that the huge black shadow he saw looking down from the ice was actually the head of Taotie!
"The Taotie is an ancient beast, incredibly terrifying. Who could have killed it? And who suppressed its head here? The strangest thing is, why is only its head left? Where are its torso and limbs?"
The Sea Lord spoke in confusion.
"I know the truth of the matter. At the same time, I also know who the owner of the candle is! Do you want to know?"
Dao Junzi's chest heaved violently, and he was extremely excited.
At the side, Man Ying kept scratching his head, wondering how the gentleman knew all this. This made him look stupid, like an illiterate.
"Say it!"
Chen Xuan hurriedly urged him.
I never thought that a Taoist gentleman would even know this?
You know, even if the Buddha and the God came here and saw the Taotie head, they would probably be confused and unable to figure out the truth.
Dao Junzi took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "In this world of ours, which is like a prison, only two people can figure out the truth. One is the Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion, and the other is me, Fellow Daoist Chen. You met me today, and I met you. We are both lucky. If we hadn't met, this mystery might never be solved even after millions of years!"
"Okay, stop keeping us in suspense. You're in bad shape again. Let's get straight to the point!" Man Ying interrupted Dao Junzi's chatter and urged him unhappily.
As a close friend, he naturally knew the character of a gentleman. When this guy discussed great principles, he would like to start from the creation of the world and chatter endlessly, to the point that his ears would be callused.
Dao Junzi also realized that he had been talking too much nonsense. He coughed twice to moisten his throat and said seriously:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, do you know about the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?"
He planned to explain to Chen Xuan the mystery and vastness of this world.
But there are very few people who know about the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
At least, in their imprisoned little world, among the more than ten powerful gods, no more than one of them knows a few things about the nine heavens and ten earths.
Basically, all we know are some old guys who have lived for many eras.
He said that the gentleman was able to know this because of the Tianji Pavilion.
"I know. There are nine heavens and ten earths, a total of nineteen great worlds. Our Origin Continent is one of the ten lands. I also know that the Origin Continent is divided into ten factions, known as the Ten Directions World. The Dark and Weird Creatures are the overlords of the tenth world among the Ten Directions World. The Five Realms we are in now are the livestock and leeks raised by the Dark and Weird Creatures. At least that's how they see us, the kind that can be slaughtered at any time."
Chen Xuan said a lot in one breath.
Taoist Junzi originally wanted to show off his knowledge, but he didn't expect that Chen Xuan not only knew about the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but also knew that the Origin Continent was one of the ten lands, and even knew that the forces of the Origin Continent were divided into the Ten Directions World.
This made the Taoist who wanted to show off feel a little depressed.
My goodness, how does he know everything?
However, Taoist Junzi changed his mind and thought that it was not surprising that Chen Xuan knew about Daxu and came out of Daxu alive, and knew about the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
He misunderstood. In fact, Chen Xuan had never been to Daxu. It was simply the Buddha's fake body that told him this.
Of course, there are some misunderstandings, but if they are misunderstandings, they are misunderstandings, and there is no need to explain them.
"Since Fellow Daoist Chen knows all this, I'll skip it and get down to business!"
Dao Junzi's tone grew serious as he spoke slowly, pausing over each word, "In ancient times, the Divine Emperor unified the universe and named the Xuanquan Land, one of the ten lands, the Origin Continent."
"Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. The names of the ten earths are: Yellow Spring Earth, Red Spring Earth, Black Spring Earth, White Spring Earth, Clear Spring Earth, Purple Spring Earth, Green Spring Earth, Mysterious Spring Earth, and Divine Spring Earth!"
"And our continent of origin is the land of mysterious springs!"
"After the Divine Emperor unified Xuanquan Land, he divided his eighteen generals into eighteen vassal states. These eighteen vassal states pledged allegiance to the Divine Court!"
"Of course, the Divine Court here is the Divine Court created by the Divine Emperor of the Origin Continent, not the Divine Court established by the Divine Lord of our small place."
"Later, the Divine Emperor disappeared, and the Divine Court was in chaos. Without a leader, the eighteen princes rebelled and each declared themselves king!"
"After countless years of fighting, experiencing the instigation of other great worlds, and the clash of armies from various worlds, the Divine Court was finally destroyed, and only ten of the eighteen princes remained!"
"Finally, the ten princes signed a ceasefire agreement and divided the Origin Continent into ten worlds. This meant that the ten princes shared the Origin Continent. This is the power structure of the Origin Continent that we see today. It has not changed for millions of years!"
"The Five Realms we are in now are actually the territory of a defeated prince among the Eighteen Princes. The people of our Five Realms are all descendants of that defeated prince. Because we are the descendants of the loser, we have become the food of the victors, that is, the dark and strange creatures!"
"A clan of dark and strange creatures, also one of the eighteen princes!"
"All of this is recorded in the forbidden book of the Tianji Pavilion. Throughout the ages, even the Pavilion Master has not been allowed to view this forbidden book. The reason I know this is because I secretly stole the book and read it, so I know the truth of that year!"
