Chapter 114: The Twelve Capitals of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou
The four great divine formations of prehistoric times, the Zhoutian Star Array, the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array, the Innate Five Elements Array, and the Zhuxian Sword Array.

Among them, the innate five elements formation is the most difficult to assemble, because it is necessary to collect the five innate flags, namely the Eastern Green Lotus Treasure Flag, the Western Plain Cloud Flag, the Central Wu Ji Apricot Yellow Flag, the Southern Lidi Flame Flag, and the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag.

These flags are either in the hands of saints or in the hands of Queen Mother of the West, so naturally they will never see the light of day again.

The next is the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation. This formation needs to gather the twelve ancestor witches. After the death of the ancestor witches, this divine formation will cease to exist.

The Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Array and the Zhuxian Sword Formation are arguably the easiest divine formations to set up. There is no need to say much about the Zhuxian Sword Formation, while the arrangement of the Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Array requires the help of the power of the boundless starry sky. The boundless starry sky will naturally not be destroyed, and the Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Array will naturally exist forever.

Heng Ming thought of this extraordinary divine formation, sat down on the lotus platform, and divine light flashed, immediately wrapping the seven people into Yingzhou Island.

Xuan Yun looks like a clumsy turtle, but actually he is the smartest one. When he saw the divine light flash, he jumped without thinking and followed the divine light into Yingzhou Island. Heng Ming ignored it.

As the lotus platform gradually dissipated, the boundless divine light emitted by Yingzhou Island also gradually dimmed, and the giant island began to dissipate as well. It seemed that everything was an illusion. There had never been a Yingzhou Island, and there had never been a great god preaching. However, the five-clawed golden dragon and the four-clawed white dragon knew deeply that this was the so-called great supernatural power holder.

The seven people only felt that their eyes were filled with endless darkness in an instant, but then several rays of light pierced through the gloom. When they opened their eyes again, they immediately found that they had come to a rare and wonderful spiritual land, a blessed land.

Hengming’s preaching for thousands of years has not only benefited the sentient beings in the South China Sea, but Yingzhou Island has benefited the most.

Bixia Yuanjun once personally combed the earth veins on Yingzhou Island and connected them with the nearby water veins, forming a connection between earth and water, and even reaching deep into the seabed. As long as Yingzhou Island remains in this position without moving, it can continuously absorb the essence of the four seas.

But Heng Ming was very creative. With the help of the sound of Tao that was prevalent during his sermons, he actually forcibly transformed the earth veins and water veins, turning them into endless and huge divine dragons. These were divine dragons that were born and raised by the earth. They could be called sky dragons or earth dragons. They had no connection with the dragon clan, but were similar in shape.

Only by standing on Yingzhou Island can you know that this place has transcended the concept of an ordinary paradise. It is a place for nurturing the innate sacredness.

There was an inexplicable aura around them that condensed into paintings, dancing in the wind, interpreting the mystery of the Tao to the creatures on Yingzhou Island. There were several pictures of the Tao in front of the seven of them.

There is the transformation from acquired to innate, from the mortal path to the immortal path, there is the moon and the sun, there is the rotation of yin and yang of the five elements, and each picture illustrates a mystery and a truth.

Even though the seven of them had already achieved Taiyi Golden Immortals, and even had a vague glimpse of the Daluo truth, they still felt deeply touched when looking at these pictures, and they wished they could sit cross-legged right away to capture that hint of inspiration.

It's no wonder they were like this, these pictures were all created by Heng Ming himself. They were the various insights into the great Dao that he gained when discussing and listening to the Dao with other great gods. However, some of them were inconsistent with the great Dao in his heart, so he specially removed them.

Hengming felt it was a waste to just abandon it like that, so he made it into a picture for all living beings to comprehend.

The eldest brother envied and said, "It is indeed the supreme cave heaven, the first blessed land. Compared with it, our original dojo Xuanci Mountain is even worse than a quagmire."

The other six people nodded in agreement.

If they were allowed to practice here for tens of thousands of years, it would not be impossible for them to become Daluo Jinxian.

Xuan Yun curled his lips slightly, as if looking down on these country bumpkins.

A white jade lotus platform suddenly dropped from the sky, and Heng Ming sat on it calmly. Upon seeing it, several people immediately knelt down, even Xuan Yun was no exception.

Looking at these trembling people, Hengming first said to the turtle: "Xuanyun, since you want to practice Taoism on Yingzhou Island so much and have seized a chance, I will not chase you away. You can find a pure land on the island to practice. If there is anything, I will call you."

Xuan Yun kowtowed respectfully and said loudly: "Xuan Yun obeys your orders!"

Then it turned into a beam of water light and dived into a river somewhere, obviously settling down in that river.

Heng Ming nodded slightly after seeing this, and then turned to look at the seven people: "Tell us what Kunpeng did to you, and what is the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Banner."

These people immediately kowtowed, and the eldest brother said sadly: "Please see clearly, the seven of us brothers are transformed from seven stars. Originally, there is no difference between us and other stars. We are just born in the morning and die in the evening. It's just that we are predestined to merge with the aurora of the North Sea, so we can transform.

Kunpeng was originally irritable, but he could only endure it because of the pressure from the great god Xuanwu. But now the great god Xuanwu has transformed into a sacred beast of the north, escaped to the North Pole, and ignored the affairs of the North Sea. Kunpeng became more and more crazy.

First, he took the entire North Ming Sea into his possession, and then he forced many people who were practicing in the North Ming Sea to join the North Ming Palace. If it were just that, it would be fine. Although the seven of us brothers are unwilling, we can endure it.

But later, Kunpeng joined the Heavenly Palace. Although he no longer bossed us around, he asked us to contribute all our companion spirit treasures. How could we tolerate this?

But Kunpeng has a huge influence on the North Sea, so we have to surrender even if we don't want to. It would be fine if it were this way, but I once accidentally heard some of Kunpeng's descendants chattering, saying that they want to refine all of us cultivators who have transformed into starlight into a treasure called the Zhoutian Xingchen Banner. This is something we can no longer tolerate!" Hengming had a blank expression on his face. He didn't care about the origins of these people, their spiritual treasures, or their life and death. He only cared about the Zhoutian Xingchen Banner.

As his elder brother continued to explain, Hengming finally understood the origin of the Zhoutian Star Banner.

There are 365 ancient stars in the boundless starry sky. These stars are giant stars second only to the Moon, the Sun and the Purple Star. Naturally, they will give birth to corresponding star gods.

These ancient star gods may not be able to defeat the supreme star lords born from these three supreme stars, but the combined efforts of the 365 ancient star gods can forcibly expel them from the starry sky.

However, the birth speed of these ancient star gods varies. Now, nearly one-third of the ancient stars have not yet given birth to star gods. Moreover, the current star gods are not united. Some want freedom, some just want to hide, and some directly join the Heavenly Court and become demon gods. The remaining ancient star gods naturally have no way to resist these supreme star monarchs.

When arranging the Great Zhoutian Star Array, apart from the most important Yin-Yang Formation Eye, these 365 ancient stars are the most critical.

It's just that the ancient star god and the ancient stars are completely different things. Even if the ancient stars voluntarily mobilize the power of the stars and have the assistance of the ancient star gods, given the huge size of the ancient stars, it is unknown how long it will take to mobilize the corresponding power to form a formation.

It is for this reason that the Heavenly Court wants to refine a treasure called the Zhoutian Star Banner.

The Zhoutian Star Banner has only one effect, which is to quickly mobilize the power of the stars. If it were just that, it would be fine. It is just a treasure that can assist in cultivation.

This is exactly what puzzled these seven people. They wanted to kill all the cultivators who had transformed into starlight just to refine hundreds of treasures to assist in cultivation. Isn't this crazy?

If they had not followed Kunpeng secretly after hearing these gossips and had not seen with the help of treasures that Kunpeng was really capturing those ascetics who had transformed from starlight, they would probably not have believed such a ridiculous conclusion and would have thought it was just a rumor.

But it is precisely because I saw it with my own eyes that I felt that Kunpeng was crazy and the Heavenly Court was crazy.

But Hengming knew very well that Tianting was not crazy!
On the contrary, the Heavenly Court was very calm and even used this fallacy as an excuse to massacre the monks who had transformed into starlight.

Although Heng Ming had never seen the specific effect of the Great Zhoutian Star Array with his own eyes, he could guess a thing from the name alone. It was nothing more than using the different properties of various stars to defend against and attack the enemy. It sounded simple, and even somewhat inconsistent with the name of one of the four great divine arrays. But if it was using the boundless stars to defend against and attack, it would be extremely terrifying.

So in the eyes of others, the Zhoutian Star Banner is just a treasure to assist in cultivation, but in the eyes of Heaven, it is an unparalleled magic weapon to assist in setting up formations.

Hengming took a look at these people and found that they had good cultivation and aptitude, so he asked them to find a place to settle down.

These people were all grateful and reported their names. However, apart from the eldest brother Ji Ye and the second brother Xuan Ci, Heng Ming only had eyes for the others.

"It is said that the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array was inspired by Emperor Jun from the Hun Yuan He Luo Great Array."

Heng Ming closed his eyes and thought: "The Hunyuan Heluo formation can perform a small primitive world, with endless starry sky, vast land, vast oceans, and all living beings. Obviously, Emperor Jun removed the vast land, all living beings, and the vast oceans, and only kept the endless starry sky. No wonder -"

As the Sun Star God, he has two Moon Star Gods gathered around him. Hengming thinks that Di Jun is too stupid if he does not use the boundless starry sky as a point to calculate the formation.

Emperor Jun was not stupid, on the contrary he was very smart.

Hengming slowly opened his eyes, and a ray of dim light passed by: "Nuwa did not explain this to me. Given the relationship between Nuwa and Heaven, either Nuwa did not want to tell me, or even Nuwa did not know what Heaven was doing. The latter is more likely."

He deeply realized that this sermon was not in vain, at least it helped him grasp this important information. The Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Array is about to be born, so could the Great Twelve Capitals of Gods and Demons Array be far away?

Hengming's conversation with these people only took a few quarters of an hour, and then he returned to the pavilion.

Tong Tian saw Heng Ming coming back and asked curiously, "Daoyou Heng Ming, what were you talking about with those little guys?"

Heng Ming smiled and said, "They are just some young people who want to become my disciples. I will let them practice freely on Yingzhou Island. I will consider whether to accept them as my disciples after evaluating their achievements in the future."

Sanqing and Bixia Yuanjun did not suspect anything and continued to drink tea and chat, feeling very comfortable.

Obviously they planned to wait until Hongjun gave his third lecture, and then go directly to Primal Chaos together.

　In fact, the northern flag here should be the Zhenwu soap-carved flag, but Zhenwu corresponds to the Zhenwu Emperor. However, the first generation of heavenly court has not been born, and the Zhenwu Emperor of the second generation of heavenly court will naturally not come down, so the more common term is used, which is the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag.
