Readers who have read the list of gods know that in the first time, a well-known immortal was mentioned, and he was the groundbreaking Pangu. Legend has it that when the heavens and the earth had not yet appeared, the universe was still a lump of vitality, and people called it the chaotic universe. Many readers believe that the chaotic universe is the beginning of everything, because everything in the world and the earth was born in the chaotic universe, but this statement is not accurate.
Pangu mentioned earlier, he is a god from outside the chaotic universe, it can be said that Pangu is an extraterrestrial god. Legend has it that in the ancient times, Pangu took up the magic weapon in his hand and opened up the chaotic universe, so that he had the heavens and the earth and all things. Although the chaotic universe gave birth to all things in heaven and earth, there are countless gods and immortals outside the chaotic universe, and perhaps there is a larger world.
After Pangu created the heavens and the earth, he exhausted his lifelong cultivation and eventually returned to chaos. From this point of view, we can know that there are countless immortals in the outer heavens, and we call these immortals from the outer heavens here the Outer Heavens. After carefully reading the list of gods and combining some mythological books, we will find that there are five Yuwai Tianzun in the mythological stories, they are Pangu, Hongjun Laozu, Jade Emperor, Taishang Laojun and Sun Wukong.
At the time of the Ten Thousand Immortals Array, Hongjun Laozu appeared once, and I remembered that the book said that Hongjun Laozu came from the Purple Heaven Palace of the Outer Heavens and was the master of the Heavenly Sage. After the Master of the Tongtian Sect was defeated by Yuan Shi Tianzun, he wanted to recreate Qiankun, but was later stopped by Hongjun Laozu. When Hongjun Laozu appeared, the book said, "Heaven and earth are outside the Xuanhuang, and one gas transforms Hongjun." "From here, we can know that Hongjun Laozu is a god from the outer heavens, and also a well-known Yuwai heavenly figure."
Hongjun Laozu has three disciples in the book, they are Taishang Laojun, Yuan Shi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Lord, but after carefully reading this book, we will find that Taishang Laojun is also a Yuwai Tianzun in the book. Judging from the contents of the book, we can know that Yuan Shi Tianzun was cultivating in the Jade Void Palace, and the palace was located in the Thirty-six Heavenly Great Luo Heavens, but the Eight King's Palace of Taishang Laojun was outside the thirty-sixth heavens, indicating that Taishang Laojun was also a god from the Outer Heavens in the book.
On that occasion in the Jie Immortal Array, Taishang Laojun entered the Jie Immortal Array alone and defeated the Tongtian Sect Lord with one qi and three Qing. I remember that in the book, it was said that after Taishang Laojun entered the Immortal Array, three Heavenly Saints entered the Immortal Array from the Outer Heavens and joined forces with Taishang Laojun to defeat the Master of the Tongtian Sect. Later, Taishang Laojun said, "When the heavens and the earth had not yet appeared, I was already cultivating the Yuan God outside the chaotic universe, and it was simply easy to break the Immortal Array." From this point of view, we can know that Taishang Laojun is a cosmic celestial being from the outer heavens in the book.
After Pangu returned to chaos, the Jade Emperor was in charge of all things in heaven and earth and became the earliest lord of the Three Realms, but after carefully reading some mythological books, we will find that the Jade Emperor is a god from the outer heavens, and also a cosmic heavenly being. According to legend, the Jade Emperor cultivated from an early age and experienced more than a thousand heavenly calamities, each of which lasted for 129,600 years before he could finally become an innate saint.
In the first episode of "Journey to the West", the book says that Pangu took 129,600 years to open up the world, indicating that pangu's mythical story of creating heaven and earth and all things is only a natural disaster experienced by the Jade Emperor in the career of the Jade Emperor, which in the seventh time of "Journey to the West", the Buddha also told Sun Wukong. From this point of view, the Jade Emperor in the book is a Cosmic Heavenly Ancestor from the Outer Heavens, maybe he is still the beginning of everything, it is not an exaggeration to call him the Founding YuanLing.
Sun Wukong is a character in "Journey to the West", carefully analyze his origin, we will find that Sun Wukong is also a yuwai tianzun from the outer heavens in the book. In the first time, the book said that there was a fairy stone on Huaguo Mountain, and after a period of cultivation, a stone monkey was born, and he was Sun Wukong who later made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace.
Judging from the contents of the book, we will find that the immortal stone that gave birth to Sun Wukong has a very unsimple origin, and the book says that when the heavens and the earth had not yet appeared, this immortal stone had already existed. After the appearance of the heaven and earth, it fell on the top of huaguo mountain, absorbed the essence of heaven and earth and the aura of the sun and moon, and finally gave birth to Sun Wukong. Later, in the seventh time, the book said that "the mixed element body is just in harmony with the innate, and the innate and the old are born." From this point of view, we can know the true identity of Sun Wukong, he is a cosmic celestial being from the outer heavens, so it is reasonable to call Sun Wukong an innate saint.
