Chapter 636 Danming Rebellion, the causes and consequences

The Danming Rebellion that Xuan Zhenzi mentioned was actually something that happened during the Thousand-Year Dark Period of the Cangwu Dao Sect. It could also be said to be a major event that had a turning point in the Thousand-Year Dark Period.

Most of the events in the Thousand Years of Darkness have been deleted by the moderate figures now in power. Only a few important events remain. The Danming Rebellion is one of them. Everyone knows about it, but the remaining events are also Much has changed beyond recognition.

That is to say, Wu Yi was born in Shige and was familiar with historical records. He could still make some inferences based on the existing historical records. Ordinary disciples basically believed whatever was said in the collection.

However, some contents are really not suitable for current disciples to know. There were so many times in history, when a sect's lineage even faced the risk of being cut off, that it was not called a dark period. It was those thousand years, and it must be called a thousand years of darkness, which must have its reason.

To sum it up in one sentence: there is no difference between humans and animals, and there is no difference between Tao and demons.

At that time, the Taoist sect was experiencing internal and external troubles, and the various factions of the Taoist sect were no longer united under the leadership of Yiqimen as they had originally been. However, the top leaders of Yiqimen still adhered to their original tough stance. Moderate factions emerged, but they had not yet taken power.

In a thousand years, three leaders of the sect have died, all of them died in battle. As for the cave sky, it has also withered away. The middle-level sects such as Nascent Soul Golden Pill and other sects can't stand alone. There are faults and there is no connection between the old and the yellow.

The new disciples have no way to make progress, and the upright path is slow to produce results, which is not enough to survive in the troubled times. Strange methods come out one after another, and they often follow side ways. The methods of soul refining and blood refining are so unscrupulous that mountains of corpses pile up and rivers of blood flow.

Humans are the spirit of all things, but at that time, they were just a group of domesticated pigs and dogs. It was not only different species that ate humans, but the same kind was the most ferocious.

This is the tragedy of the times. Everyone lives in a precarious life. The big fish eats the small fish, the weak eats the strong, and the rules of the jungle are clearly reflected.

It is also the luck of the times. Everyone has a chance to get ahead. New and old forces are rapidly iterating, and wealth cannot last more than three generations. Hmm, let’s maintain it for one generation first. The old and new systems collided violently. Under the Bone Mountain, beside the river of blood, the flowers of knowledge bloomed, and the beautiful land was desolate and cold.

In those thousand years, more Dharma doors were created than in the ten thousand years now. It is not an exaggeration to say that in terms of the level of cultivation, Taoist methods, magic weapons, and formations are still relying on the legacy of those thousand years.

However, just as much history has been artificially tampered with, many Taoist methods, formations, elixirs, and magical weapons have also been artificially hidden or even annihilated. After all, some methods that defy heaven and enter the Tao should be annihilated themselves.

The world of cultivation has always had a tradition of advocating ancient methods. It's not that they are stupid, but sometimes the methods found at the bottom of the cliff may be more advanced than the current methods. This is the result of practice.

Talking back to the Danming Rebellion, maintaining the original state of expansion requires a large number of disciples and elders to support it. However, the emergence of internal and external troubles has greatly increased consumption. The Yiqi Sect with the human race as the main body is no longer able to maintain it and needs to find fresh blood to supplement it.

Originally, the Yiqi Sect had always been based on the human race, and it had always adhered to this principle since its establishment. However, under the impact of strong external forces, it had to change its inherent principles and concepts, and greatly absorbed the entry of aliens, including the demon race.

As a result, you have also thought that in a specific historical period, luck fluctuates rapidly. Once the momentum is gathered and the path is achieved, it will reach the sky in one step.

Wu Yi, who was half a century old, was nothing at all at that time.

The alien race quickly grew into the middle and even the upper levels of the sect, even occupying most of the positions, and had the ability to influence major policies.

With the addition of this batch of fresh blood, Yiqimen regained its strength slightly, and with signs of revival, it began to severely suppress the previous resisters. For a time, the vast world was filled with white terror.

Since ancient times, the methods of controlling water and blocking rivers rarely work, so they must be channeled. The dissatisfaction of various forces in the Cangbang Realm towards Yiqimen is palpable, and continuing to suppress them will only continue to worsen the situation.

If the strategy is not changed, even if more fresh blood flows in, it will be useless.

After a short period of "resurgence", an alien who came from a Yiqi family and opened a government outside the country raised the banner of anti-Yi Qimen, and a large number of people quickly gathered under his banner. This alien was a man who became enlightened through three thousand years of Dan Mingshi. After Dongtian, he was called Danmingzi, and the rebellion led by him was also called the Danming Rebellion.

This rebellion is very interesting. It is not about the duel between the two generals. The ninth leader of the Yiqi Sect, Yang Lingzi, personally put down the rebellion. This leader is undoubtedly a pure human race.

The interesting part is the supporters of both sides. Many people must think that those who support Dan Mingzi must be mostly aliens, while those who support Yang Lingzi, the head of the human clan, must be human beings.

In fact, quite the opposite. It was the secret promotion and even support of many high-level human beings from the Yi Qi clan that led to the Danming Rebellion and the final death of Yang Lingzi.

Dan Mingzi's subordinates were not only many human beings, but also the main force. When the rituals collapsed, anyone could recruit them as long as the cultivation resources were sufficient. Feelings are not as effective as steamed buns.

In fact, when Yiqi Men releases the restrictions on his disciples, he has already taken the lead in breaking the etiquette, and it is not difficult to predict the collapse.

If you have breasts, you are a mother. It is the same in the immortal way, the human way, and the divine way.

At that time, the internal tear of Yiqimen was extremely serious. Otherwise, those who could become the leader of Yiqimen and ascend to the upper realm (the ascension here does not mean achieving the immortal status) would just be easy. It would be really difficult to die in battle. matter.

Those alien races who created the revival of Yiqimen are the most staunch supporters of Yang Lingzi, because they are the direct beneficiaries of this revival. Only if the revival of Yiqimen continues can they maintain their current status.

Let's talk about why the human race's top leaders opposed it. In fact, to be precise, it was not the human race that opposed it, but the group of people in the human race who intended to change the big policy.

This group of people was called the moderates, and they were the main body of the human race in Yiqimen at that time. Many years of endless and meaningless consumption (at least in the eyes of these people) made them tired and eager for change.

During the reign of Yang Lingzi (the ninth), the power of the moderates could not be underestimated. If the alien race had not entered Yiqimen, it might not have taken so long for this generation to take power.

Similarly, if the power of the moderates had not risen so quickly, the hardliners might not have introduced alien forces to suppress the other side. Cause is effect, and effect is cause, and cause and effect are entangled.

From this perspective, the rise of the moderates is actually inviting wolves into the house, but the previous practices of the hardliners were not the first to destroy this principle and introduce external forces first.

No one is better than anyone else, and no one is a white lotus.
