Prehistoric: Twin lotuses with parallel stems

Summer is the most prosperous season for all things, so Daxia is named after it.

But the summer is so harsh that it is daunting.

The seventeenth Emperor of Xia, Jie, compared himself to the sun in the sky, scorching all directions. All the countries were angry but dared not speak out.

Once upon a time, there was a powerful state called Youshi. It was dissatisfied with what Jie did, so it rose up in resistance and refused to pay tribute.

And everyone saw what happened to You Shi.

Jie sent troops to conquer, and many vassal states also participated.

Although the Youshi clan was powerful, they were ultimately defeated by the siege, were brutally suppressed, and nearly destroyed.

Princess Mei Xi of Youshi clan entered the palace as a concubine, thus ensuring the continuation of Youshi clan's lineage.

All parties were terrified, but Jie became even more powerful and unscrupulous.

Everyone cursed that day, but no one dared to resist. Shi Shi was a lesson for us.

Under such circumstances, Mei Xi was favored, which made Jie's cruelty even more obvious.

It is said that Mei Xi had three major hobbies: she liked to hear the sound of silk being torn, she liked to see people drunk and drowning in a pool of wine, and she liked to wear men's clothes and discuss state affairs.

In order to please Mei Xi, Emperor Jie of Xia accepted silk from all over the world, built a wine pool and a meat forest, and allowed Mei Xi to participate in court and discuss state affairs.

The road is silent, but the silence is already filled with commotion and complaints.

In the palace of Daxia, a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes had a graceful figure, beautiful face, and noble air. She leaned lazily against the window, exuding infinite charm.

Mei Xi looked at the sun in the sky, her expression neither sad nor happy. There was only indifference in her naturally charming eyes.

She was waiting for the sunset, but the hero who was said to be able to shoot down nine suns in ancient times had not appeared yet, and there were many people who were accomplices to the evil.

She is just an ordinary person, a mortal who cannot even control her own destiny. She does not have the power to change the world alone, and cannot accomplish the feat of shooting down the sun.

Mei Xi was somewhat disappointed, but also unwilling to accept the ending of You Shi clan. Her resentment was not only directed towards Emperor Jie of Xia, but also towards the many people who besieged You Shi clan.

In this case, she wanted to see how cowardly the people in this world were.

To what extent must one be forced before one dares to stand up and resist.

Jie's debauchery was not enough, and the people of the world could still endure it and serve him, so she would make it even worse.

If this absurd world remains in the end, it would be better to destroy it.

If she could see the sunset, she wouldn't mind burning her body with it. It would be a way of paying for the sins she had committed over the years.

Countless people died directly or indirectly because of her, and countless families were broken up and killed because of her. She herself was stained with sin, and she knew this.

But Mei Xi had no regrets in her heart. She felt guilty but had no regrets. After entering the palace and accepting the path she had to choose, she gave up everything she had.

"You said summer would soon be over and everything would be fine after a while, but the scorching sun is still hanging high in the sky."

A vague memory flashed through Mei Xi's mind. More than ten years was not a short time for mortals.

She still remembered the fairy woman in black clothes, who came and went freely and unrestrainedly. The ornaments on her waist swayed gently in the wind, making pleasant sounds that made people feel calm and refreshed.

Whenever she thought of it, Mei Xi always envied it and yearned for this free and easy life that was detached from the world.

Suddenly, I felt a cool sensation on my body, as if the scorching sun had really gone down.

It was dark, with no sunlight, no stars, no moon, and no blazing sun in the sky.

Mei Xi was stunned, looking into the distance blankly. A moment ago, it was noon, but now it was plunged into darkness.

It was not yet sunset, but it was already as deep as night.

"Hahaha! The sun has set! It's really set! The sun has set!" Mei Xi's body was shaking, and her smile was crazy and sad.

At the same time, after the brief silence brought about by the strange phenomena in heaven and earth, boundless rage surged in the human realm, lighting up the dark color without sun.

He compared himself to the sun that never falls, but now it has fallen. This is Heaven's will to destroy that immoral king!

In the darkness that enveloped heaven and earth, war broke out in the human realm, and the Xia dynasty was destroyed by Jie in the 17th generation.

......

At Taoshan, all the heavenly soldiers and generals retreated, and Yang Jian stood in the void holding the axe that could split the mountain. The magic power around him surged, shaking the void.

After more than ten years of stalemate between Heaven and Yang Jian, Emperor Haotian, under the persuasion of the immortals and gods in Heaven, finally issued an edict to pardon Yao Ji's crime with great reluctance, and at the same time recruited Yang Jian to serve as a god in Heaven.

People with discerning eyes see through things without saying anything; as for those who cannot see through things, there is no need to say more.

The Heavenly Court could not do anything to Yang Jian unless Dongmugong, Tianhu, Wendao and others took action.

As time went on, the Heavenly Court suffered more and more humiliation and was forced to give in.

The matter of peace talks was not proposed by the Emperor of Heaven, but by a group of immortals and gods who had lost their temper after being beaten by Yang Jian.

Although the Emperor of Heaven felt extremely humiliated, for the sake of the overall situation, he had to swallow the loss, bringing shame to himself and the Heavenly Court, and negotiate peace with Yang Jian.

As for whether Haotian was laughing happily behind his reluctance, only a few people in Heaven knew about this.

Compared with the complicated emotions of the other heavenly generals, Yang Jian felt even worse.

But he did not lose his mind after all, and he knew that continuing would not benefit himself, his mother, or his master in any way.

His purpose from the beginning to the end was just to save his mother from trouble, not to challenge the Heavenly Palace.

Yang Jian forced himself not to think about anything and accepted the amnesty from the Heavenly Court. The release of his mother Yao Ji was of course a condition.

But what almost made Yang Jian furious again was that, after all, he had to release his mother himself, and the power of Taoshan did not come from heaven.

In other words, he had been fighting with the Heavenly Court for so many years, but in the end it was not the Heavenly Court that trapped his mother.

Fortunately, Yang Jian already knew how to break the ban on Taoshan and was ready.

"Senior, please lend a helping hand to Yang Jian." Yang Jian transmitted his voice into the void.

There was no response from the void, but the barrier covering Taoshan Mountain did change. The power of Taiyin, one of the core elements of the formation, was suppressed, causing the power of the formation to decrease and an obvious flaw to appear.

Yang Jian replaced the mountain-splitting axe with a golden slingshot, and used his magic power to aim at the visions evolved from the power of the sun and disperse them one by one.

But the power of the sun is inexhaustible, dying and reborn, and the formation can never be broken.

Yang Jian had no choice but to take out the River Map borrowed from his uncle Nv Qing, connect it with the power of the sun, and use his great magic power to transform it into a sacred mountain. He borrowed the power of the earth veins to temporarily suppress the power of the sun, causing the power of the sun to be cut off, the sun to lose its light, and the world to fall into darkness.

At this moment, the world was in complete darkness.

The power of the moon and the sun was gone, the formation lost its strength and weakened, and Yang Jian seized the opportunity to break it immediately.

At the same time, various Taoist auras emanated from the River Map, resonating with the forbidden laws and actually began to absorb the power therein.

A Taoist chapter evolved and took shape on the River Map. Dao runes condensed one after another, containing the power of order and rules, manifesting as "Heavenly Law". It is magnificent and majestic, upright and vast, evolving the laws of heaven and earth, embracing all living things and forming order.

Then a ray of axe light illuminated the sky and earth and chopped towards the majestic Peach Mountain. It was a divine axe that could split the mountain with one axe. It was produced by Taiqing and its quality reputation was guaranteed.

Yang Jian followed closely behind, and before the axe light had faded away, he had already transformed into a beam of light and entered Taoshan.

Outside Taoshan, Nv Qing held the returned River Map and looked at it. She smiled happily as she saw the more complete "Heavenly Law" on it. It turned out that borrowing things had such benefits. It was much easier than practicing on her own.

She wanted to ask her second senior brother if there was anyone else like nephew Yang Jian who wanted to borrow something, and if he could arrange it for her.

But when he turned around, he saw that his second senior brother was squinting his eyes and looking at some void somewhere, not inside Taoshan, but outside Taoshan.

Although Nv Qing did not see a smile on that face, she felt that at this moment, this second brother was smiling. She didn't know what bad things he had done, like a fox who had succeeded in his conspiracy...
