Chapter 461: Tianzun’s Disciple (Part 1)

Outside the temple, Lu Heng looked surprised.

He didn't expect that his statue would appear here and occupy the main position.

No matter how you look at the scene in front of you, it seems abnormal.

After all, this temple is called the Ancestral Root Spirit Hall, and it enshrines a sacred tree. However, the sacred tree that is enshrined cannot occupy the main position. It can only take a second place, and let Lu Heng's statue stand in the main position... This kind of ostracism. Behavior is too strange.

But Lu Heng looked around and found that no one among the pilgrims and believers was surprised by this matter.

It seems that it is natural for Lu Heng's statue to be placed on the main throne.

Lu Heng thought for a moment, then randomly found an old man in the crowd who seemed to have a kind personality, and said, "Old man, can I delay you for a while?"

Lu Heng said with a smile: "We are from out of town. This is our first time in Luoye City. We heard that this ancestral root temple is very efficacious... but why is the main seat of the altar enshrined not a sacred tree?"

Lu Heng's question made the old man stunned for a moment.

The white-haired old man couldn't help but widen his eyes, looked at Lu Heng, and said: "You...you don't know Tianzun?!"

"Uh...Tianzun?"

"That's right! Tianzun!" The old man glared at Lu Heng and said, "Young man, you don't even know Tianzun... How come you are from out of town? You are from the mountains, right?"

The old man's shocked expression was the same as seeing a primitive man.

In response, Lu Heng showed an awkward expression just right and said: "Uh... well... to be honest with you, this junior is indeed from the mountains."

Lu Heng said: "We have lived in the mountains since we were young. This is the first time we have gone down the mountain to the city, so we don't understand many things... I dare to ask the old man, who is this Tianzun? Why is there a temple dedicated to a sacred tree? Let him take the lead?"

Lu Heng asked with a respectful attitude, which seemed very pleasing to the eye.

The old man stroked his long white beard on his chin and said suddenly: "I see... But I don't blame those who don't know. For the sake of correcting your mistakes young man, I will tell you the story of Tianzun today."

As he said that, the old man directly pulled Lu Heng aside and said with great enthusiasm: "Tianzun is the leader of the gods and the ancestor of the immortals. He is the first ray of thunder between heaven and earth. He has the same life span as heaven and earth and has existed for endless years. ”

"For a long time, he has been in charge of the thunder of the sky, exterminating evil spirits, making the evil spirits on the earth dare not go crazy, and the evil spirits dare not act rashly, and protects the peace of all living beings in the world."

"It is the oldest and most powerful existence in the world."

"And this ancestral root of all spirits is the sacred tree planted by Tianzun and his elders. It has existed here for thousands of years. There are rumors that this spiritual root is rooted in the earth's marrow. The effect of stabilizing heaven and earth."

"So although the sacred tree is enshrined in this hall, the Heavenly Lord must stand on the main throne. Although the sacred tree is noble, it has to take a second place."

The old man stroked his long beard and told a series of rumors in one breath. There was no need for Lu Heng to take the initiative to ask questions. He seemed eager to tell Lu Heng everything he knew.

Lu Heng was quite speechless about this.

Tianzun...the leader of the gods...the ancestor of the immortals...what kind of mess is this?

Although he knew that he had left the Tianhuang Realm for more than 4,000 years, and that the rumors from those years would definitely be processed and transformed now, he did not expect to be transformed into this.

Apart from the divine punishment for mental retardation, which of the legends about this Tianzun has he done?

And isn’t there no such thing as [immortal] in the Tianhuang Realm?

Why did another ancestor of the immortals appear?

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Heng said: "But old sir, I heard that the real leader of the gods is the emperor Fuxi from ancient times? Could this emperor be Fuxi?"

Lu Heng's question made the old man glare at him: "Young man, you actually know about Emperor Zun... It seems that you are not completely ignorant."

The old man said: "That's right! In ancient times, there was indeed an emperor Fuxi who shook the world, established the ancient heaven, and established the order of heaven and earth."

"However, the ancient Heavenly Palace has long since collapsed, and the Emperor Fuxi has also perished for an unknown number of years. Today's Heavenly Palace was built by the Heavenly Lord alone."

"The old man cares about all living beings in the world and cannot bear to see the suffering of all living beings, so he established the Heavenly Palace, restrained the immortals, consecrated the gods, and even opened up the reincarnation of the underworld to allow the dead to return to life. It can be said to be an immeasurable great merit."

"There are even rumors that even the evil cultivators of the demonic path worship and respect the Heavenly Lord. All the creatures in this world live according to the rules and order established by the Heavenly Lord. It is precisely because of the Heavenly Court that can restrain the immortals and suppress the evil spirits. We and others Mortals don’t have to worry about evil spirits running rampant.”

"And after the world is at peace, little babies like you can live peacefully in the mountains and wilderness without fear of evil spirits harming others."

"Otherwise, I heard from the old people that before the establishment of the Heavenly Court, the Huotong Kingdom was very chaotic. There were monsters running rampant in the wilderness, and ghosts killing people in the dark night. If a mortal leaves the city, his life will be in danger at any time!"

"How could there be the prosperity and excitement now? There was almost no connection between cities. Mortals like you and me could only live in our own one-third of an acre for almost our entire lives, unable to go out easily."

"You are able to walk outside without any worries now. You have to thank Heavenly Lord for that!"

The old man emphasized the greatness of Tianzun in an excited tone, teaching young men from the mountains to be reverent and grateful.

However, the more Lu Heng listened, the more outrageous he felt.

What did he do to open up heaven and confer immortals on the throne?

Although his body remained in Tianhuang Realm, it had been nestling in the seabed outside Sanxian Island, and his mind had never returned. Without Lu Heng's mind driving it, his body was just a piece of clay sculpture that would not move.

And until now, Lu Heng could feel that his body was still in the original position and had not moved.

Then the great Tianzun who opened up the heaven that the old man mentioned...

Lu Heng thought for a moment and asked, "That... old man, since Tianzun is so great, is he the current master of the heaven? In charge of all the immortals?"

The old man glared at him and said, "So you really don't know anything, little kid... Tianzun is such a transcendent existence? How can he have time to deal with power and mundane affairs?"

"The heaven is now ruled by the Supreme God Lu Ai. Lu Ai God King is the master of the heaven."

"And Lu Ai God King is the direct disciple of Tianzun. On weekdays, she is in charge of the heaven and the command of all the immortals on behalf of Tianzun."

"You, little kid, don't even know Lu Ai God, you just talk nonsense... You really don't know anything and are full of nonsense!"

The old man glared at Lu Heng and said, "As the saying goes, there are gods above your head. You must respect the gods of heaven and earth. You are so frivolous and not serious at all. Be careful of the gods' blame!"
