Chapter 275 % depends on yourself, % depends on luck!
"So many vassal states belong to the human race. Do they have ambitions? If the dynasty changes, wouldn't it be..."
Emperor Xiao began to doubt. With so many human countries, if there was a change of dynasty, the impact would be too great.
Xue Dingshan laughed: "Brother Di Xiao, you are right. According to the rules of the imperial hegemony formulated by Huoyun Cave, these vassal states also have the opportunity to participate in the hegemony. And among the many vassal states, there are indeed quite a few powerful countries."
"But these vassal states can participate in the struggle for hegemony, but it is not so easy to truly occupy Kyushu and become the new dynasty of the human race. After all, in this world centered on cultivation, everything is determined by strength."
"As for strength, because of the unspoken rule that the law cannot be passed on lightly, many small countries do not have orthodox inheritance or powerful cultivation methods. Without these, it is difficult to achieve success."
"Looking at the history of the human race, apart from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the stories behind the remaining dynasties of the human race are not simple. For example, behind our Tang Dynasty royal family, the surname Li is Li Er. And Li Er is the reincarnation of the great master Xuandu."
Di Xiao's eyes widened, his pupils shining: "Master Xuandu! The legendary disciple of the Human Religion, the first disciple of the Saint Taiqing. He..."
"Yes, it's him. As far as I know, the great master Xuandu passed down the human race's experience, used Li as a guide, and promoted the human teachings. So he borrowed the name of the Great Sage Taiqing and wrote the Tao Te Ching, and even used Laozi as his title. And he also multiplied a bloodline in the human world."
"The current Tang Dynasty is the descendant of the great master Xuandu. Although the blood of the great master Xuandu has gradually become thin due to the problem of human reproduction, after all, with such a backer, the inheritance and the methods obtained are not comparable to those of ordinary families. Therefore, when there was a great chaos back then, the Li family was able to take advantage of the situation to rise and establish the current Tang Dynasty."
"In addition, the Ying family of the Great Qin has witch bloodline, which can be regarded as a pure human-witch lineage. With the ancient witch clan as a backer, it is easy for them to establish an empire."
Good man, the sudden secret really shocked Emperor Xiao. He never expected that the Great Qin was actually an empire founded by human witches.
Emperor Xiao sucked in a breath of cold air, but he became more and more confused: "The ancient witch tribe can only, so it is naturally easy to establish an empire in the human world. And isn't it rumored that Chi You is also a human witch?"
"Yes. Chi You is essentially a human witch, and he has cultivated himself into a great witch with the body of a human witch. For such a strong man, and the witch clan had protected the human race in the past, it was naturally easy for him to establish a dynasty among the human race. Unfortunately, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors all had their destiny, and all of them were participated by saints. At that time, even if Chi You had the support of the witch clan behind him, it was still difficult to change."
"But when the Ying family rose to prominence, the sages in Huoyun Cave also secretly supported them, making up for the debt they owed to the human witch lineage. Even when Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng claimed that his achievements were greater than those of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and called himself emperor, insulting the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the sages in Huoyun Cave did not say anything."
"But the word 'emperor' is taboo after all. Secondly, only Qin Shi Huang was qualified to bear this title. His descendants were not qualified, so the Qin Dynasty perished in the second generation and was eventually conquered by Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty."
"And Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty was not simple either. He was the son of the Red Emperor. Although the Red Emperor was not one of the Five Emperors, he was the child of the Yan Emperor, the son of the Earth Emperor Shennong. In other words, Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty was strictly speaking the grandson of Shennong. With such a bloodline, it was natural for him to create a great Han Dynasty."
Good guy, Di Xiao exclaimed. I never expected that the human dynasty in Journey to the West would come from this. Every founder has a very special identity.
But it is true that in this world of Journey to the West where immortals are everywhere, to be able to unify the human race, one must have extraordinary abilities and a strong enough background. Without these, it is really difficult to create a dynasty.
But after knowing this, Di Xiao couldn't help but secretly regret: "Brother Xue, if what you said is true, then it was a bit unfair that the Overlord Xiang Yu was defeated!" "You can't say that. Although Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty was the son of the Red Emperor, when he was sent out of the Fire Cloud Cave, his bones, cultivation, and memories were cut off... He gradually grew up from a mortal body and eventually founded the Han Dynasty."
"It can be said that Liu Bang himself contributed at least 70% to the establishment of the Han Dynasty. The remaining 30% was the advantage brought by his own bloodline. On the other hand, Xiang Yu was not simple either. Where do you think his double pupils came from? They were not innate, but passed down through his bloodline. And you should also know where this bloodline came from."
Di Xiao swallowed again and became cautious. In fact, ever since he got Chongtong, he had a deep understanding of Chongtong's past.
Therefore, Di Xiao knew very well what double pupils meant: "Ancestor Cangjie! According to legend, he is the ancestor who created the human race's writing system. Xiang Yu is his descendant."
"You can say that. In fact, the human race's double pupils seem to have been born instantly among the human race. But when we trace back to the origin, we find that these awakened people all have the blood of Cangjie. Whether it is Confucius, who founded Confucianism, or Xiang Yu, they are all descendants of Cangjie."
"Even you, my brother Di Xiao, have a trace of the blood of the ancestor Cangjie in your blood. Although it is so weak that it is difficult to detect, it is still there. Secondly, you did not awaken congenitally, but acquired it later. Therefore, you are also a special case."
"But if you want to be born with double pupils, you must be a descendant of Cangjie."
Xue Dingshan told Di Xiao the secrets of the human race, and Di Xiao digested them very quickly. His heart also fell into a silence of accomplishment.
The best of the emotional human race all have extraordinary bloodlines and special backgrounds. Although this makes those ordinary humans who work hard to make progress feel a little bit unworthy.
Xue Dingshan seemed to see what Di Xiao was thinking, and patted him: "Brother Di Xiao, don't think too much. In fact, from the birth and reproduction of the human race to the present day, the bloodline of each one is not simple. If you really want to trace it back, you can trace it back to some saints in Huoyun Cave."
"However, most of the time, these bloodlines are not recognized, and the human race does not solidify its class based on bloodlines. Only when these humans grow up and their bloodlines become purer, will they gradually gain some support."
"It's just like the Li family of the Tang Dynasty today. Although they have the blood of the great master Xuandu, if the Li family didn't work hard at the beginning and didn't become stronger, they wouldn't have the foundation to dominate the Nine Provinces. Even if the great master Xuandu showed up in person, he wouldn't be able to shake the Fire Cloud Cave."
"It can be said that among the human race today, whether it is to become a strong person or to create an empire, one needs to work hard and grow up. Only when one grows up, the blood in his body will become his own help. Therefore, there is a saying among the human race: 70% depends on oneself, and 30% depends on luck."
“Without the seven points of hard work, the remaining three points of luck would never come.”
After hearing this, Di Xiao nodded silently: "So that's how it is."
"Okay, after all that nonsense, we've finally arrived at Huaguo Mountain." Xue Dingshan said as he took out his weapon.
