What kind of demon is Dong Huang Taiyi?

The Eastern Emperor Taiyi is a god in ancient legends.

Originally recorded in Qu Yuan's poem "Nine Songs", it was the god that people believed in and sacrificed during the Spring and Autumn Period and even the Warring States Period. Over the past 400 years, the Dahan Dynasty took the East Emperor Taiyi as the highest sacrificial god.

Taiyi, the emperor of the East, is the supreme god or related to Taiyi God and Tai Huang. Taoism believes that Taiyi is invisible. Since immortals can be called immortals, they should be people. Nine Poems of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi are Qu Yuan's ode to the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and it is the most solemn one in Qu Fu. From beginning to end, his poems are only descriptions of sacrificial ceremonies and scenes of offering sacrifices to gods.

Emperor taiyi and emperor jun.

Taiyi, after the establishment of the emperor, Taiyi was the emperor of the East and the emperor was the emperor of heaven, both of which were supreme gods. In fact, if you look closely, the East Emperor Taiyi is the supreme god, and the Emperor should be the real actual controller. The Emperor should be the highest-ranking, while the Emperor Taiyi in the East, similar to the Arctic Emperor Wei Zi, one of the four great emperors in later myths, is the most noble god after the Jade Emperor.

Moreover, according to the fusion of myths, although the Eastern Emperor Taiyi is the supreme god of Jingchu, Jingchu culture is fused by Chinese culture; In the original China mythology, the Emperor was the supreme god, and the Eastern Emperor Taiyi was later merged. In any case, it is impossible to make this later become the supreme god and downgrade the original emperor.
