…
No wonder I felt so familiar when I heard about the thirty-six holy pillars on the holy mountain of heaven.
In the ancient books of Qufu Academy, there are records of the most glorious moment of the Angel Clan in a certain era. That era was called the Solomon Era.
King Solomon was the leader of the angel clan of that era. He did not whitewash peace and package himself as glorious and great. Instead, he did not mind mastering the so-called "black magic". In this way, he awakened the demons who had been thrown into the abyss. They!
In fact, they are the fallen angels who are labeled as fallen angels!
He signed a contract with the Lord of the Fallen Angels, the so-called Demon King Belial, successfully awakened the seventy-two demon gods, and dedicated his soul to Belial after his death.
Relying on this method of recruiting demons, the angel race of that era successfully became the same top race as the Three Saints of this era.
"I don't understand..." Xu Kun raised his doubts.
Chang Geng looked at him and seemed to understand what he wanted to ask, but motioned for him to continue.
"Thirty-six holy pillars and seventy-two magic pillars, taken together, represent the inheritance of one hundred and eight gods. If the angel clan is willing to unify them, wouldn't it be able to surpass the Solomon era?"
Chang Geng said as expected: "You really know the secrets of that era."
Xu Kun said in a deep voice: "I just saw a few words in some ancient books."
"It's already amazing. Not many people in this world know the glory of the Angel Clan in that era, but as you said, you only saw the good side, not the bad side."
“What’s the good side and what’s the bad side?”
Chang Geng stood up and said: "On the good side, of course, after King Solomon signed the contract with Belial, he summoned the seventy-two demon gods to come into the world, successfully maintaining the rule of the Angel Clan and bringing the Angel Clan into its true peak era. "
"But do you know that the reason why these people have the same blood as us but are labeled as fallen angels, and why the strong ones among them are given the title of former demons?"
Xu Kun shook his head, indicating that he was unclear.
"To be precise, the line of dark angels starting with the ancestor god Mona have not done anything treacherous or evil. It's just that their humanity is too strong."
"What does it mean to be too human?"
"What is the purpose of our angel clan?"
"Divine right..." Xu Kun couldn't help but say.
Chang Geng smiled slightly: "That's it. As the Lord's messengers, we have been to rule the ignorant people since the beginning of creation. Angels represent the Lord's will. The Lord has transformed the world into three, six or nine levels, and the real Lord, Located on the top of the plane, standing at the highest point!”
"As his envoys, even if the angel race cannot exist on the highest plane, they still stand on the clouds and overlook the world!"
Xu Kunyi frowned: "Aren't you reversing the course of history with this idea? Have you forgotten the Waterloo that happened after the so-called Lord created the first generation of angels?"
"In the eyes of the world, the ugly angel at the beginning is more like a devil."
"The so-called demons, on the other hand, get along well with mortals and can use their abilities to benefit the world, bringing happiness and love to the world."
"The name of devil is not something you are born with, but is imposed on these high-quality creatures by gods who think they are superior, isn't it?"
Xu Kun raised his doubts.
"You are right. The demons in the past had superhuman abilities. They had a strong influence among mortals. They cured diseases for mortals, quelled wars for mortals, opened their minds to mortals, and taught them how to use tools. How to develop civilization.”
What kind of devil is this?
This is the angel walking on earth!
"But don't forget, for gods, what they want is not mortals who have enlightened people's wisdom, because once they have thoughts, mortals will have desires and become greedy."
"This kind of lust that originally existed in demons was brought to the world through their spread. Do you know what the consequences will be?"
Xu Kun shook his head and listened to Chang Geng continue: "You human race has a saying, it is hard to satisfy the desire. Once people have more desires, they will start to ask for more and begin to be dissatisfied with the status quo. The consequences of this are very serious. Terrible."
"The simplest thing is that in order to survive, human beings who have learned to use tools will start to kill, and they will never return to the innocent era."
"As for the supreme gods, everything that mortals originally had was given by praying to the gods. When they learn to create and use tools, they will think: Why should I surrender to the so-called gods when I can rely on myself? ?”
"To put it bluntly, mortals who have been enlightened by demons have become unstable factors and have greatly affected the interests of the ruling class. This is a very realistic topic."
"People begin not to believe in gods and do not want to believe in gods. The consequences are very terrible, so God will send down punishment from heaven."
"And the ones who deserve the most punishment are those demons who think they are smart."
"The various advancements they have brought to the mortal world have caused more suffering."
Xu Kun frowned again and again: "This is simply a fallacy. It is just for your own benefit and selfishness from the gods. Everyone has the right to choose their own life. Why do the gods have the will to override all living beings?" , why should we decide the future of mortals?”
"Faith in gods should be that gods can protect one side, rather than expecting them to be ignorant and better control!"
"Are you sure you think so?" Chang Geng asked back.
"Of course!" Xu Kun answered seriously.
"That's because you haven't stood at that height yet. Have you ever felt the pinnacle of power?"
Xu Kun was so angry that he laughed: "You mean, if I stand at the pinnacle of power one day, I will be like the so-called gods, exterminating humanity."
Chang Geng smiled meaningfully and said: "Whether it is human or god, they are selfish."
"I'll ask you a question, answer me when you think it through."
"Ask." Xu Kun said confidently.
"Why do humans brand some people as traitors?"
Xu Kun opened his mouth and for a moment, he was unable to answer.
"Answer me, from your perspective, doesn't everyone have the power to choose their own future?"
"Then why do humans regard these people as enemies?"
"Aren't they also pursuing the future they think is right?"
"You won't answer me naively, because these people are bad people and you are good people, right?"
"Who gave you the power to define good and bad, and why do you think they are bad and you are good?"
"In the name of the people, after all, is just a struggle for power, isn't it?"
Xu Kun was silent after Chang Geng's words, and even doubted his life.
Seeing Xu Kun silent, Chang Geng continued: "Then I can answer you now, in your eyes, the question of our tribe's historical regression."
"Indeed, the Solomon era was the most prosperous era of all the eras of our angel tribe. King Solomon was also one of the greatest emperors in the history of our tribe, including the Temple of Heaven whose dome you destroyed, which was a product left over from his period."
"But you know, such a great emperor had a very miserable ending."
"As you said, he opened up the wisdom of the people under his rule, making them rich and smart, but the price was..."
"As an emperor, he felt that he could retire in his later years, but he changed his previous diligent style and began to enjoy life. The ending was... his rule was overthrown by the mortals under his rule!"
"The angel tribe at its peak was overthrown by some mortals, causing the entire angel tribe to fall apart."
"He was pulled down "He lost his throne and was chopped into pulp by mortals!"
"This is reality!"
"He was disrespectful to his superiors and could not control the people who had awakened their wisdom. In the end, he could only watch the huge empire he built fall apart, and he sacrificed his soul to the demon lord Belial."
"Is this what you want to see?"
"King Solomon used his great talent and strategy to summon the seventy-two pillars of demons, maintain his rule, and bring the entire tribe to the peak."
"But this is all false prosperity, just like the short-lived flower that soon disappeared."
"The sin of all this is not that King Solomon did not work hard enough, but that it was wrong to use the power of the seventy-two pillars of demons from the beginning!"
"How can the way to rule the people be without dignity?"
"Do you understand what I said?"
Xu Kun's eyes gradually became a little empty, as if under Chang Geng's words, he doubted some of his past ideas.
But when the clear light emerged in the sea of consciousness, Xu Kun's eyes regained clarity.
Looking at Chang Geng, a half-smile appeared on his lips.
"Has the holy baptism against me started so soon?"
Chang Geng's expression froze.
"You are changing the concept, old angel Chang Geng, your behavior makes me feel a little ashamed!"
"You are brainwashing me, which is what we humans call...PUA!"
