Chapter 847
A test!
The appearance of the calamity is also a test from Heaven and Earth for the Great Qin, just like the test for the Yin Shang and the Jie Sect during the Investiture of the Gods.
If they want to become the true hegemon, they need to pass the great calamity sent down by Heaven and Earth.
The war between the Witches and Demons was also like this.
If they pass it, their strength will advance further, and they can become the true hegemon; if they cannot pass it, then everything is over.
If the Great Qin passes it, they can achieve what they want and take back thirty percent of the human race's luck from the Heavenly Court and the gods and Buddhas in the sky.
By then, the human race can at least control half of its own luck, and at that time, the human race and the Great Qin will be even more powerful.
It might even give birth to a Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal for the human race; this is not without a chance.
Of course, breaking through to a Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal is equivalent to transcending the Primordial World, and the difficulties involved are much greater than becoming a Saint of the Heavenly Dao.
Almost no one in the Primordial World has achieved this.
After all, to transcend, one must first resolve the karma within the Primordial land; this karma alone would probably stump countless cultivators.
Not to mention, there is also a series of calamities.
But regardless, there is a chance; with thick luck, one can always catch a glimpse of it.
Back then, the top powerful figures of the two Witch and Demon races were all at the peak of the Quasi-Sage level, or even existences at the half-step Saint level.
Once one side could become the hegemon, they would have a great chance to break through; after all, once one of the two Witch and Demon races became the hegemon of the Primordial World, they could almost unify the luck of the Primordial World.
That majestic luck would probably be even thicker than when the human race was at its strongest now.
Unfortunately, the other great supernatural beings and the numerous Saints at that time were unwilling to see such a hegemon appear.
After all, whether it was the Demon race or the Witch race, once one side became the hegemon, the Demon race would very likely give birth to two Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortals.
Two existences comparable to Saints, combined with the powerful Demon race forces, would mean that those Saints would likely be suppressed by them.
Then it would be very difficult to contend for luck in the Primordial World.
As for the Witch race, it was even more terrifying; at the Primordial Golden Immortal level, the twelve of them could deploy the Twelve Capital Divine Demon Array to summon the true body of Pangu, and that power was even more terrifying than that of a Saint.
Once they became the hegemon, with the domineering nature of the Witch race, wouldn't these Saints be driven to the Heaven Beyond Heaven?
Therefore, the group of Saints began to scheme, and eventually, the two great Witch and Demon races suffered mutual destruction, and almost all of their high-level members died miserably.
The two Witch and Demon races eventually declined, and afterward, the group of Saints chose the human race as the hegemon of the Primordial World.
Because the human race was weak, easier to control, and had no powerful figures, it was simpler for them to contend for the human race's luck.
At one point, ninety percent of the human race's luck was plundered.
Later, after the birth of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, because of the power of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, they took back twenty to thirty percent of the human race's luck.
Under the leadership of the sages, the human race continued to grow stronger.
During the Investiture period, the Yin Shang even wanted to use the power of the Jie Sect to start reclaiming the human race's luck on a large scale, but unfortunately, they failed in the end.
The Jie Sect was gone, and the entire Yin Shang dynasty was destroyed.
This time, the Great Qin appeared, inheriting part of the Yin Shang's luck, and they also wanted to complete the feat that the Yin Shang failed to finish.
In this, there might be secret support from the sages of the human race.
Of course, the Fire Cloud Cave cannot come out to help openly, otherwise, it might attract the gaze of those Saints.
So now they can only rely on the Great Qin.
"So, what help can I provide to the Great Qin?"
Su Fan obtained a lot of information from within the human race and the historical inheritance of this world from Zhang Liang.
As the main branch of Confucianism, the Little Sage Virtuous Manor, and with Xunzi also being a great elder of Confucianism, it can be said that in the current Confucianism, apart from Confucius, there are few whose status is higher than Xunzi's.
Even Xunzi can directly contact the Fire Cloud Cave.
Therefore, Zhang Liang also has many records regarding the ancient and primordial times.
These records also allowed Su Fan to compare the situation he understood with the mythology he knew.
Don't look at the fact that the Six Kingdoms before were not governed by Legalism, but they were definitely not governed by the Confucian philosophy of governance either. It could be said that at that time, the Confucian state power was fundamentally useless.
However, the Great Qin today does indeed need to pass a calamity, as Zhang Liang said; if they pass it, everything will be fine for everyone.
But according to what he understands, the Great Qin did not pass it; Su Fan is not clear on the specifics, but in the *Journey to the West* world...
The human dynasty of the Nine Provinces in the Nanzhan Buzhou has become the Tang Dynasty, which shows that the Great Qin failed.
Otherwise, with the strength of the Great Qin, the Great Tang would never have appeared.
Su Fan naturally hopes that the Great Qin succeeds; in his view, there is no problem with the Great Qin cooperating with the Witch race.
After all, compared to the Heavenly Court, the Witch race is weaker; the Great Qin's cooperation with the Witch race is not "seeking skin from a tiger," but truly obtaining massive benefits.
Cooperating with the Heavenly Court is what "seeking skin from a tiger" is, just like the Great Zhou back then.
The Great Zhou was established for tens of thousands of years, but how many human powerful figures were born?
Leizhenzi and the others do not count; they belong to the Chan Sect disciples, and they grew up by sucking the blood of the Great Zhou humans.
Locally, the Great Zhou did not give birth to any experts at all.
The luck of the Great Zhou was almost all sucked away by the gods and Buddhas in the sky of the Heavenly Court.
The Great Qin saw the miserable state of the Great Zhou, so they chose to flip the table at the first opportunity.
Although it was very reckless, the courage is also commendable.
Su Fan naturally prefers such a Great Qin.
It is just that the Great Qin's enemies are too powerful, and the Witch race cannot provide much help; Su Fan combined this with mythological history and the ancient chronicles he obtained from Zhang Liang's mouth.
The Witch race does not have many experts, and most of them are hiding in the Underworld, or hiding in those poor mountains and treacherous waters, hiding away and not daring to appear at all.
Relying solely on the Great Qin itself, it is very difficult to resist those gods and Buddhas in the sky.
Unfortunately, Su Fan's strength is too weak now; even if he knows the flow of history, he cannot provide any help.
At most, like before, he can point out Liu Bang's identity as the Red Emperor in advance, so that the Great Qin can prepare early.
Apart from this, it is very difficult to have any effect.
With his current strength, he might not even be a match for a Colonel in the Great Qin army, and in the Heavenly Court, he might at most be comparable to some Heavenly Soldiers.
He might not even be as good as a Heavenly Soldier; if dragged to the battlefield, he would at most be cannon fodder.
So personally entering the field and participating in the great war is impossible.
Once the calamity arises, whoever dares to descend to the lower realm is equivalent to participating in the calamity, and they will truly die and disappear.
Although this calamity is certainly not as great as those Dragon-Phoenix Calamities or Witch-Demon Calamities before the Primordial World.
But being in the midst of the calamity's evil energy, if one is not careful, even a Great Luo Golden Immortal has the danger of falling.
Wasn't Leizhenzi a Golden Immortal before? He descended to the lower realm and died.
This bloody lesson not only taught the gods of the Heavenly Court, but Su Fan is also very vigilant.
He does not want to become Leizhenzi.
He has made up his mind that he cannot participate in the great war, but if he can improve the Great Qin's strength, he would not mind.
