With all the immortals and gods looking forward to it, the Jade Emperor smiled slightly, and then said: "The third major certainty: from the 7749th day of the terrestrial calendar, the heaven will establish three major tribulations: heavenly tribulation, earthly tribulation, and human tribulation in this world. When a monk practices in the world, he will experience one of two tribulations: earthly tribulation and human tribulation every period of time. When a monk becomes an immortal, he must survive the "heavenly tribulation" before he can become an immortal, and the heaven will test his merits. If the merits are not consistent, Those who are not qualified will not be subjected to heavenly calamity, nor will they be allowed to become immortals!"
As the Jade Emperor finished speaking, the entire Lingxiao Palace fell into silence, and you could hear a needle drop.
Everyone understood this third number, and it was precisely because they understood that they were all stunned!
The core of the third major number is only one thing, that is, in the future, regardless of all living beings in the world, whether they are cultivating Taoism or Buddhism, whether they are demons or demons, as long as you want to become an immortal in this world, you must obtain the assessment and approval of heaven. If you get
Without the assessment and approval of the Heavenly Court, and the Heavenly Court will not punish you, you will not be able to become an immortal no matter what. You can only wait for reincarnation after your lifespan is over.
And in this way, Heavenly Court is equivalent to directly strangulating the lifeblood of Taoism and Buddha. This...how can we fight against Heavenly Court?
The Taoist and Buddhist monks were sweating on their foreheads at this moment, and their eyes turned to the Taoist and Buddha on the left and right of the Jade Emperor.
Where is Daozu? Where is Buddha? You two, talk to each other. If this continues, one family will be the only one in heaven!
Under the anxious gazes of the Taoist and Buddhist immortals, Taoist and Buddha finally moved, and then they heard Taoist proclaiming "Blessings and Immortal Lords", and Buddha proclaiming "Nawu Infinite Life Buddha", and then Taoist and Buddha Under the eyes of the Taoist and Buddhist immortals, they said in unison: "The Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Lord, has attained the position of the 'Lord of Infinite Tribulations' in the Three Thousand Dao. All tribulations in the heavenly path are controlled by the Great Heavenly Lord."
The Taoist and Buddhist immortals were numb when they heard this, and they knew from the words of Taoist and Buddha that this matter was a foregone conclusion.
But just when the hearts of the Taoist and Buddhist immortals were gloomy, the Jade Emperor spoke again: "But Taoism and Buddhism have always supported heaven and stabilized the three realms with great merits. Therefore, under the way of heaven, there should be a quota for becoming immortals. , the Buddhist family.”
When the Taoist and Buddhist immortals heard this, their expressions suddenly changed and they raised their heads to look at the Jade Emperor.
Immediately afterwards, the Jade Emperor said: "From now on, each Taoist and Buddhist immortal who attains Taoism, Taiyi Golden Immortal or above, can help three people become immortals within a thousand years. There is no need to go through a heavenly tribulation, and they only need to be recorded in the heavenly register." "
This is the Jade Emperor's way of balance. If the Jade Emperor completely lets Heavenly Court monopolize the quota of immortals, the Taoist and Buddhist families will definitely abandon all their past grudges and fight against Heavenly Court.
Not counting Taoist ancestors and Buddha ancestors, the total number of Daluo Jinxian from Taoist and Buddhist families has reached twenty, not to mention the Taoist Heavenly Tower and the heretic demons who are watching covetously.
Therefore, it is necessary and must be done to give up some places to become immortals to Taoists and Buddhas.
Hearing that there was a quota for becoming an immortal, and that there was no need to undergo a heavenly tribulation, the Taoists present, Taiyi Golden Immortal and Daluo Golden Immortal, all breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, they looked at each other and thought it was a bit ridiculous. Taoist, Buddha and Jade Emperor appeared at the same time, which showed that they had reached a consensus, but they were here in a hurry. It was really ridiculous to think about it.
But they also feel some pressure in their hearts. The Jade Emperor has achieved the status of the 'Lord of Infinite Tribulations'. From now on, in addition to his status as the Lord of the Three Realms, he will also be the Lord of Infinite Tribulations, in charge of all 'tribulations' in heaven.
Even if the Jade Emperor would not personally end up in the struggle between heaven and Taoism and Buddha, his position as the 'Lord of Infinite Tribulation' would make everyone present feel an unparalleled pressure.
"Where is Emperor Juntian, the Virgin Mother of Nine Heavens Xuanyang?" the Jade Emperor called out.
Jiutian Xuannv immediately walked out of the court with a jade wat in her hand, bowed and said, "I am here."
The Jade Emperor said: "From today onwards, the Heavenly Court has established the 'Taishi Immortal Capital', which is responsible for the assessment of all living beings in the three realms, the transformation of all spirits into immortals, and the reduction of disasters. You will be in charge of the Taishi Immortal Capital on my behalf, with the title of 'Lord of the Great Dao'" '. There are 'Left Vice-Jun', 'Right Vice-Jun', 'Kaochengjun', 'Jiejie Envoy' and other positions. They are the first-grade immortal officials of the Yuan Dynasty. You can select the personnel and report them to me."
After saying that, the Jade Emperor raised his hand and saw a ray of mysterious light suddenly falling in front of Jiutian Xuannv. After the mysterious light dissipated, a volume of Tianguang Jade Book appeared.
"This is the 'Treasure of the Three Tribulations of the First Beginning', and it will be in your hands from now on." The Jade Emperor said.
Hearing this, Jiutian Xuannv immediately stretched out her hand to take the 'Treasure Ribbon of Three Tribulations of the First Beginning', then bowed and said, "I sincerely abide by the decree of the law."
Finally, the Jade Emperor said to Jiutian Xuannv: "You can hand over the 'Jade Rules and Gold Medals Book of Merits'."
Jiutian Xuannv immediately handed over the "Jade Rules and Golden Seals Merit Book" that represented the authority of the chief envoy of Taixuan Province. After the Jade Emperor took back the "Jade Rules and Golden Seals Merit Book", he erased its authority to confer merits. From now on, the Jade Rules and Golden Seal Merit Book will only be used as an object of authority in charge of the immortal officials in heaven and as the head of the civil and military immortal officials.
Then the Jade Emperor asked Jiutian Xuannv: "After you step down as the chief envoy of Taixuan Province, who do you think can be the next chief envoy? Recommend him to me immediately."
After hearing this, Jiutian Xuannv immediately bowed and said, "I forgive my blindness, but I also ask the Great Heavenly Lord to make my own decision."
When the Jade Emperor heard this, he didn't force himself. He raised his hand and said, "Okay."
Jiutian Xuannv bowed in obeisance and then retreated to the court, but her eyes looked towards the heavenly gods below.
At this time, I heard the Jade Emperor calling out: "Where is the Great Emperor Qinghua of the East Ji, Taiyi, Lord of the Rescue of Kutian?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qinghua of Dongji immediately walked out of the court and bowed respectfully: "I am here."
The Jade Emperor said: "You will succeed me as the Chief Envoy of the Taixuan Province, assist me in governing the Heavenly Court, be in charge of civil and military affairs, be in charge of all the divisions, and stabilize the Three Realms."
Emperor Qinghua of the East Ji immediately paid his respects and said, "I have great merits and virtues, so I may not be able to take up this post."
The Jade Emperor said: "Your calamity comes to Tzu Chi, the Great Thousand Nectar Sect, the Great Sage, the Great Compassion, the Great Compassion and the Great Wishes. I will take the name of the ten directions to save all living beings. I will save countless people in billions of calamities. I am qualified to take on this important task. I hope you will not ask for it." decline."
Emperor Qinghua of Dongji immediately stopped his modest remarks and bowed down: "I accept the decree."
Then the Jade Emperor gave the "Jade Rules and Gold Medal of Merit Book" to the emperor. Dongji Qinghua Emperor received the "Jade Rule and Gold Medal of Merit Book", bowed again and then returned to the court.
After everything was arranged, the Jade Emperor nodded slightly, and then said to Taibai Jinxing: "Xuan Fangjian has come to see you. He has now been removed from the priesthood and is no longer subject to orders."
Whether it was the former Four Imperial Guards or the current Five Imperial Guards, any decision they made represented the will of the Jade Emperor. Naturally, the Jade Emperor could not directly slap them in the face.
Therefore, Fang Jian was suspended from his post and ordered to think about his mistakes behind closed doors. It was not easy for the Jade Emperor to summon Fang Jian directly, otherwise he would embarrass Emperor Zhongtian Jiji Ziwei in public.
Therefore, the Jade Emperor directly removed Fang Jian from his priesthood, which not only did not violate the decree of Emperor Ziwei of Zhongtian Jiji, but also lifted the immortal official punishment order on Fang Jian.
Taibai Jinxing sang respectfully: "Yes." Then he quickly walked out of the Lingxiao Palace and went to the Heavenly Court.
When they heard that the Jade Emperor summoned Fang Jian, the Taoist and Buddhist immortals once again became uneasy.
Jiutian Xuannv's promotion to the fifth emperor was beyond their expectations, and they couldn't prevent it from happening.
But now the Jade Emperor has summoned Fang Jian. He doesn't know why, but he must not be allowed another chance to take charge of Tiantiao, otherwise it will be extremely detrimental to Taoism and Buddhism.
They really couldn't stop Jiutian Xuannv from being promoted, but Fang Jian could.
Therefore, after the Daluo of the Taoist sect and the Daluo of the Buddhist sect in the Lingxiao Palace looked at each other, the two Daluo immediately formed a short-term alliance.
Except for Doumu Yuanjun and Zhen Yuanzi from the Taoist sect, and the Lantern Ancient Buddha and Donglai Buddha from the Buddhist sect, the other Daluo from the two families came out of the court one after another, and worshiped the Jade Emperor in unison: "Report to the Jade Emperor Great Heavenly Lord, we have something to report."
"Here we come!" Jiutian Xuannv's eyes fell on the sixteen Da Luo Jinxian from the Taoist and Buddhist families, knowing that they were going to attack Fang Jian.
The Jade Emperor had no expression on his face. Hearing the words, he said slowly: "I invite all the immortals to play."
Our Lady of Jinling was the first to bear the brunt of the attack and bowed down and said: "My Holy Mother Jinling, please play to the Great Heavenly Lord. Master Hongqing Fangjian enforces the law harshly. The immortals of the three realms are suffering unspeakably. Please pray to the Great Heavenly Master to stop letting Master Hongqing take charge of Heaven." The law is the judge of heaven, otherwise it will be difficult to obey the hearts of the Taoist and Buddhist immortals."
After the Holy Mother Jin Ling finished speaking, she bowed down and worshiped, and the Taoists behind her also bowed in unison: "I second my opinion!"
At the same time, the Buddhist sects, led by the Medicine Master Glazed Light King Buddha and the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha, paid homage to the Jade Emperor: "The poor monks and others think that what the Taoist Friend Jin Ling Holy Mother said is true, and I second my opinion!"
As these Daluo from Taoist and Buddhist sects expressed their stance, 90% of the immortal gods with fruition status from other Taoist and Buddhist sects walked out of the court and worshiped: "I second my opinion!"
This time, the momentum of Taoism and Buddhism directly shocked the entire Lingxiao Palace. The heavenly officials in Lingxiao Palace looked at this scene with very ugly expressions. The Taoism and Buddhism families are forcing the palace!
But there was no anger on the Jade Emperor's face. Instead, he looked at Taoist Patriarch and Buddha and asked, "What do you two fellow Taoists think of this matter?"
Taoist Patriarch Taishang Laojun said with a smile: "Since the Great Heavenly Lord is asking you, I dare not not answer. Great Heavenly Lord, it is difficult to go against everyone's opinion."
The Buddha also said at this moment: "What you said makes sense. Great Heavenly Lord, it is difficult to disobey the opinions of the people."
The Taoist, Buddhist, Daluo, immortals and gods below couldn't help but feel refreshed at this moment. It was obvious that the Taoist and Buddha's words were supporting them!
After hearing this, the Jade Emperor nodded slowly and said: "Since Taoist and Buddha said so, I will agree to everyone's wishes."
After saying that, the Jade Emperor said to Emperor Ziwei of Zhongtian North Pole: "Immediately issue an edict to abolish the 'Heavenly Court'. From now on, there will no longer be a heavenly judge and a judicial god in the heavenly court. The authority of the heavenly court will be taken over by Lei Bu. .As for the judges of the original Heavenly Court, they are waiting for the imperial edict to be appointed."
With that said, the Jade Emperor's courtier Ban Zhong said: "Where is the Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Thunder Universal Transformation Heavenly Lord?"
When Lei Zu heard the edict, he immediately walked out with a jade wat in his hand, bowed and said, "I am here."
The Jade Emperor said: "From now on, the authority to control the laws of heaven and capture, kill and punish people will be controlled by Qing and Lei Bu. Fang Jianruo is an immortal official and will not join the ranks of Lei Bu."
Upon hearing this, Lei Zu immediately responded with a trembling voice: "I sincerely obey the decree of the Great Heavenly Lord!"
As Lei Zu returned to the court, the Jade Emperor said again: "From now on, all heavenly officials are responsible for enforcing the laws of heaven and the jade laws, and they all have the responsibility to catch criminals who violate the laws of heaven. But after catching the criminals, they must all Leave it to the Lei Department to discuss punishment and crime."
After the Jade Emperor finished speaking, all the immortal officials in the Lingxiao Palace sang in unison: "Obide by the law."
The Taoist and Buddhist immortals were greatly surprised at this moment. They originally wanted to prevent Fang Jian from becoming the God of Justice again, but they did not expect that the Jade Emperor was so straightforward and directly abolished the Heavenly Court and handed over the power to execute the heavenly law. Lei Bu and all the immortal officials in heaven.
In this way, even if Fang Jian continues to be an immortal official, he will not have such great power. He can arrest him, but in the end, the punishment and crime will belong to the Lei Department. If Fang Jian does not join the ranks of the Lei Department, he has no power. So much power.
Unexpectedly, the Jade Emperor made such a big concession. Both Taoism and Buddhism were very satisfied, and very satisfied.
Then, the Taoist and Buddhist immortals worshiped together and said: "The Great Heavenly Lord is wise!"
The Jade Emperor waved his hand slightly and said: "All the immortals, please enter the class without ceremony."
"Thank you, Great Heavenly Lord." The Taoist and Buddhist immortals were very satisfied. They immediately bowed to express their thanks and then returned to the immortal class.
At this time, Taibai Jinxing's voice came from outside the Lingxiao Palace: "Reporting to the Great Heavenly Lord, Master Hongqing has arrived."
...
Fang Jian wore a Qingxia jade unicorn robe, tied his hair into a hairpin, and strode into the Lingxiao Palace.
He glanced around and found that all the immortal officials in the heaven were here at this moment, and Taoism, Buddhism, immortals and gods were also among them.
But when Fang Jian glanced at the Buddhist gate, his brows furrowed slightly because he saw a smiling face.
That was the proud smiling face of the Great Sun Tathagata. Fang Jian was a little unhappy. There was clearly a hint of cheerfulness and sarcasm in the smiling face of the Great Sun Tathagata, and even a hint of schadenfreude.
Fang Jian took a deep breath and ignored the disgusting smile of the Great Sun Tathagata for the time being. Instead, he quickly walked to the center of the Lingxiao Hall, bowed to the Jade Emperor and said, "Fang Jian, the guilty minister, pays homage to the Jade Emperor."
Although Fang Jian has been removed from the post of Inspector of the Three Realms and Judge of Heaven, his post of Divine Lord of Duanjie Mountain is still there, so he calls himself the 'criminal minister' here.
Hearing this, the Jade Emperor finally showed his first smile since leaving seclusion, "Fang Jian, as the god of justice, you strictly enforce the laws of heaven and are impartial and selfless. What crime do you have?"
When Fang Jian heard this, he just bowed and bowed down without saying a word.
The Taoist and Buddhist immortals' eyelids twitched. They looked at the smile on the Jade Emperor's face and suddenly felt something bad.
The so-called Jade Emperor smiles, something bad is going to happen! Especially when he smiled at Fang Jian!
Sure enough, the Jade Emperor did not disappoint them. He only heard the Jade Emperor say to Fang Jian: "Fang Jian, since you took office as the God of Justice and the Inspector of the Three Realms, you have worked conscientiously, strictly enforced the laws of heaven, punished the sins of disobedience, and demonstrated the benevolence of heaven and earth. Invisibly. You helped me resolve 50% of the karma in the three worlds of this world, which is a great achievement!"
"Fang Jian, come forward and listen to the seal." The Jade Emperor said.
Fang Jian's heart was trembling, and he immediately took three steps forward and bowed down.
Then he heard the Jade Emperor say: "On behalf of Heaven, I will grant you thirty million merits and one hundred thousand calamity jade. I will also appoint you as the Shangshu of Xiniu Hezhou Tianjun Mansion and a first-grade immortal official to assist Youde Tianjun in governing Xiniu Hezhou. In addition, , I will give you a volume of the 'Jade Emperor's Dao Calendar', and when you use the 'Jade Emperor's Dao Calendar' to exercise your authority as an immortal official, you are not bound by the 'rules of heaven'."
After the Jade Emperor finished speaking, a ray of mysterious light fell directly in front of Fang Jian. After the mysterious light dissipated, a golden jade book floated quietly in front of Fang Jian's eyes.
Then Heaven sent down 30 million merits, which were directly injected into Fang Jian's Yuanshen. In addition, one hundred thousand calamity jade was directly sent into Fang Jian's 'Cloud Pattern Breeze Sleeve Bag' by the Jade Emperor.
Fang Jian's eyes lit up. He didn't even expect that not only was he not punished this time, but he was promoted to two levels in a row. However, he quickly suppressed the joy in his heart and immediately raised his hand to catch the 'Jade Emperor's Dao Li' jade. Book, then bowed and said: "I accept the decree! I thank the Jade Emperor!"
In Fang Jian's words of thanks, the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha and the Vajra Indestructible Buddha almost jumped up. If the Taoist immortals and gods were shocked and surprised, then the faces of the Buddhist immortals and gods were darker than those of Africans at this moment. .
Jade Emperor, you are cheating! You actually sealed this god of plague directly to Xiniu Hezhou, which is the foundation of my Buddhism!
The Buddhist immortals looked at the Jade Emperor, the Fangjian in the center of the hall, and the Taoist immortals. They finally realized a serious problem.
If Fang Jian became the god of justice and both Taoism and Buddhism were 'injured', then now only the Buddhist family is 'injured'.
Suddenly, everyone in the Buddhist sect was excited and looked at the Tathagata Buddha with his eyes closed, and then at the smiling Jade Emperor and the Taoist Taishang Laojun. At this moment, they only had one thought in their minds: "Damn it, are you being tricked?" Already?"
