Chapter 555 Heaven, Earth, Man and God (Leader Adds Changes)
Wen Zhong, Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder Universalization Tianzun, the highest god of Leibu who was conferred after Fengshen Yanyi.

He was in charge of commanding the 24 righteous gods of the Thunder Department, prospering clouds and rain, growing and nourishing all things, and at the same time distinguishing good from evil, punishing evil and eliminating traitors. In that era, thunder and lightning were a part of the natural cycle that gave birth to all things, and thunder punishment was also a day to punish evil and promote good. penalty.

Among the three gods of heaven, earth and man, this is a god of heaven. At the same time, he is also a god of man with actual achievements. The prototype is Wen Taishi in the battle between Shang and Zhou Dynasties.

"His rank is quite high. Such an existence, if there is a myth, it is estimated to be a top combat force. What does the speaker mean?"

Worried that he wasn't thinking well enough, when he returned to his hometown, Zheng Li dragged other people to discuss it.

".For such a high-ranking god, even if I want to attack his quasi-myth, it won't be a matter of time. Hey, Wen Zhong has a myth. 472/7892, 1/7."

There are seven mythical "Wen Zhong" in history, and the number of quasi-myths is quite large, which seems to be very popular.

After all, this is a "Thor" with personality and deeds. It is regarded as a Thor with a relatively clear development direction, so it is naturally popular.

However, considering the historical quasi-myth base of nearly 400, the existing [-]+ also shows that this is a long-lasting "myth". There have always been people who have attacked it, but the number of successful impacts is not many, and the difficulty should be relatively high. high.

Here, it is probably necessary to analyze the division of the three gods of heaven, earth and man.

The countless myths of various worlds, countries, and races are too complicated to classify, and the management method of "labeling" is also limited. In fact, according to the spread and transformation of myths, they are forcibly divided into three categories by the four spirits .

Man-god is a mythical creature who becomes a god in the form of a human being, or is himself a human being.

Earth gods, or mountain gods, are gods of a certain area, or mountain monsters, mountain lords, and kings of the earth, as well as lonely ghosts and mountain legends limited to a certain place, such as earthbound spirits, fox demons, and demons.

Heavenly gods, the gods in the sky who master the laws of nature, generally have priesthood and duties, and may not be personal gods.

But unlike what most rookie sword masters think, the three gods of heaven, earth and man are not superior or inferior, and some gods even have multiple attributes at the same time.

For example, Sun Wukong, when he was the Monkey King of Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain, he was the earth god who monopolized a mountain, and even the Monkey King was also attributed to the earth demon.

When it was the Sun Pilgrim to learn the scriptures, it was a human god with obvious human experience.

When its merits and virtues are perfected and become a battle against Buddha, it is obviously a god. As for the specific aspects of divine power and responsibility, you need to read Buddhist scriptures.

This division is not a simple classification, but the three identities representing a mythical creature mean that there are actually three versions of "Monkey King", with different theocratic authority and strength.

Many myths have this kind of chaotic classification. The time points of a mythical creature are different, and there is a huge gap.

The three classifications of heaven, earth and human also ensure that a mythical character can appear in up to three versions, and if you are brave enough, you can completely play three in one and get the highest level of blessing. unfolded.

The classification of the three gods of heaven, earth and man is not random. It is the four spirits and sages who refer to the evolution of human mythology and make a "classification" of various myths, which is in line with the approximate history of the evolution of myths of various races.

The first ones were actually the gods of the earth. Ancient humans could not understand various natural phenomena. Animism is actually a universal belief.

Human beings' fear and worship of nature gave birth to various mountain gods, river gods, water gods, and totem gods. For a long time, that was the main belief.

They were extremely powerful in their time, mastering concepts such as life and death, the earth, and the cycle of reincarnation that humans can understand.

For example, the god of mountains in the east had an extremely lofty status in ancient times. Emperor Dongyue was in charge of the birth and birth of all creatures (plants, animals and people) in the world. Yu Tian also accepts its protection and blessing.

In which era the mountain gods were extremely powerful and were regarded as a symbol of nature. Among other things, Zhulong was the god of Zhongshan Mountain. In the era when there were no gods, the earth gods were naturally the strongest, and they controlled everything.

But with the change of the times, human beings need a more systematic "interpretation", so the rules (the way of heaven, the rules of heaven) "overcome" nature.

Changes in human desires and understandings have brought about universal changes in mythology.

The nature of chaos is controlled by the rules of order, and there are gods who master the rules one by one.

The status of the mountain gods declined, the master of the mountain became the master of the land, and the underworld was under the command of the emperor of heaven.

In this process, heaven conquered earth, and conceptual rules conquered concrete affairs.

The symbol of this time is probably the emergence of a bunch of system gods such as gods and emperors. In the previous era of gods of the earth, they were generally in bulk, and the orientation of each occupying a piece is obvious.

For example, Gaia, the mother of the earth in Greek mythology, and mother gods such as Athena and Medusa have undergone countless changes in myth versions, and eventually became vassals, children, and wives of the gods.

After the appearance of the sky, the gods who conquered the earth, mastered the laws of nature, and controlled the mountains, rivers and other concrete objects under it, the mountain gods were either reduced in status, or reduced to various demons and ghosts.

In Greek mythology, as the ancient gods, the titans of the earth had a worse end than the other.

The river gods, mountain gods, and land gods in the east have also become more and more "soy sauce" in the wilderness stories with the changes of the times.

As for human beings and gods, it involves achievements, ancestors, and imperial power, which is more complicated than the sum of heaven and earth, so I won't expand it for the time being.

It can only be said that the myths of heaven, earth and man have been evolving and deriving from each other. Humans are embedded in the changes of the two, or to be precise, the three are inseparable. Most of what we read and know is only the one closest to us. "The latest version of".

Mythology is a reflection of human cognition of nature. Human cognition is constantly changing, and myths are naturally changing versions. Sometimes a person in power will use his brains a little bit, and the version will change to the completely opposite point. Strange.

If we insist on pursuing the original source, countless versions cannot determine the original source point at all, and it is meaningless to track it down.

However, the evolution of heaven, earth and man is a major trend and theme. Similar processes have occurred in both Eastern and Western mythology, which has a certain degree of universality. Land" label.

In modern times, the division of heaven, earth and man is not a standard answer, but an application technique based on practicality, which is convenient for "labeling" to determine the priesthood and supernatural powers it should carry.

Therefore, the mythical creatures of the earth gods are not necessarily weaker than the gods of the sky, and in the end it depends on the individual.

By the way, although having more versions is definitely a good thing, but for a myth that is limited to only one member, the three versions can only belong to one person. To get the only myth, you basically have to eat several versions.

The existence of Wen Zhong, who has both high-level gods and powerful deeds, is basically a first-class mythical creature.

If you really want to get it, you probably have to start planning from scratch like Monkey King, and then spend decades to lay the foundation and work hard. The speaker's words made Zheng Li a little at a loss.

But Yu Ying raised a possibility, a possibility that made people think carefully.

"Zeus is not the God of Thunder that can be achieved overnight. Wen Zhong is also a very high-level God of Thunder, and he is also a human god who can be gradually reached. Is there such a possibility that 'Zeus' is 'Wen Zhong'!?"

　Thanks to Dongzhao Shuyou's ally leader for their support.

　　Well, everyone has their own understanding of mythology, there are too many controversies and versions, the setting of this book is limited to this book and serves this book.
