Taibai Jinxing held a whisk in his hand and stood in front of the Lingxiao Palace. He looked at the immortals and gods who were bowing in solemnity below and preached: "His Majesty the Jade Emperor decrees that all the immortals and gods come to the palace to pay their respects."
Then the immortals from Taoism, Buddhism, Mysticism, Demonism and the Immortal Officials from Heaven slowly climbed up the jade steps according to their status and grade and entered the Lingxiao Palace.
Soon the sound of worship like a roaring mountain and a tsunami rang out in the hall. Following Taibai Jinxing's shout, all the immortals and gods immediately returned to their immortal classes.
The Taiyi Golden Immortal monks from the Demon Sect are all from the Shura clan, so they are ranked behind the Dao Sect and before the Xuan Sect.
Taoism, Buddhism, and Demonism are all three sects that cannot be offended, so the sects at the bottom of the list cultivate their eyes, nose, and nose, and do not care about their ranking at all.
As for the position of Daluo on the sky, all the emperors in heaven sit under the Jade Emperor. On the right side are the Daluo of Taoism and Buddhism, and on the left side are the Daluo of Demonism and Mysticism.
Yun Xiao looked at the Demon Cult Daluo opposite him, and suddenly asked Qiong Xiao on the side: "Do you have any backup plan on Fuming Island?"
Qiong Xiao was startled when she heard this and said, "Sister, what's the back-up plan?"
Yun Xiao frowned and said: "Real demons do not have such a clear division of Taoist realms as we do, so those real demons with Taiyi Jinxian Taoist strength do not need to come to Heaven, because they do not divide Taoist realms."
Hearing this, not only Qiong Xiao was instantly startled, but even the other Da Luo from the Dao Sect who were stationed on Fuming Island were also horrified. They immediately looked towards the Demon Sect Da Luo opposite, and saw the face of Demon Lord Chixiao. With an inexplicable smile.
Several Daomen Daluo stationed on Fuming Island secretly thought that it was not good, and they actually missed this point.
"Sister, what should I do?" Qiong Xiao asked.
Yunxiao couldn't make up his mind at this time and could only look at Lord Doumu Yuan in front of him.
Doumu Yuanjun, on the other hand, stood there with an indifferent expression. She first glanced at the Chaos Yuan Demon opposite, and then glanced at Yunxiao and the others. She said nothing and just waved the whisk lightly.
"What does Tianzun mean?" Qiong Xiao asked Yunxiao doubtfully.
Yunxiao's jade eyebrows tightened, and after a while he shook his head and said: "I don't know, but I think Tianzun's meaning is very clear. Now is the time of the great court meeting in heaven. Even if something goes wrong on Fuming Island, we can only wait until the great court meeting is over. After that.”
When Qiong Xiao and others heard this, their brows suddenly knitted together.
The immortals and gods had returned to their positions, and the Jade Emperor immediately said to Taibai Jinxing: "Taibai Jinxing, announce the entry of the four true kings into the palace."
Upon hearing this, Taibai Jinxing immediately bowed and said, "I will obey the law."
Then Taibai Jinxing stood on the gold and jade, and sang with a fly whisk in his arms: "His Majesty the Jade Emperor has an edict to declare: Jiutian Xuanyuanhong Qingzhenjun, Qingyuan Miaodao Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun, Xuanwei Saint Buddha Qi Tianzhen, Fude Mingwei San The true king of Tanhaihui will enter the palace."
Amidst Taibai Jinxing's loud chanting, Fang Jian and the other four men held their swords high and strode into the Lingxiao Palace.
When the four of them reached the center of the hall, they all stopped, then bowed and clasped their hands, and paid homage to the Jade Emperor: "Your Majesty Fang Jian (Erlang Shen, Sun Wukong, Nezha), pays homage to His Majesty the Jade Emperor."
The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "Four immortal ministers are of equal height."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The four of them bowed again and then stood upright.
Then the Jade Emperor said to Taibai Jinxing: "Taibai Jinxing, declare the edict."
Taibai Jinxing respectfully accepted the order, then took out the edict from his sleeve and began to read aloud:
"Hereby are four persons: the Heavenly God Immortal Official Jiutian Xuan Yuanhong Qing Zhenjun, Qingyuan Miaodao Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun, Xuanwei Saint Buddha Qi Tianzhenjun, and Fude Mingwei Santan Haihui Zhenjun."
The content of the edict is very long, but the main content is to summarize all the achievements of the four people over the years. Among them, Erlang Shen's is the longest, Nezha's is the second, Fang Jian's is the second, and Sun Wukong's is last. There is no way, because Sun Wukong Before that, they were either making a fuss in the Heavenly Palace or seeking Buddhist scriptures, and finally they had to fight and defeat the Buddha.
So this time the Heavenly Court's "Explaining Gong" edict took into account Sun Wukong's slaying of demons during his Buddhist scriptures. Everyone could hear that the Heavenly Court was working very hard to forcefully collect credit for Sun Wukong.
Fang Jian ranks third simply because he has been an immortal official for a short time, and the number of credits is not as good as Erlang Shen and Nezha, but the quality of his credits is very high, better than Erlang Shen, Nezha, and Sun Wukong combined. Even higher, ranking third is purely due to a loss in quantity.
However, the gods here know very well that in terms of merit, Fang Jian has the greatest contribution. At least from the perspective of heaven, Fang Jian has truly changed the situation of the three realms with his personal power.
Therefore, in the ranking of edicts, Fang Jian is always ranked first, followed by Erlang Shen, Nezha again, and Sun Wukong at the end.
". After the four continents were pacified, the true destiny of heaven came down, and the four swords were used to rectify the name of heaven. The wishes of the Jade Emperor and the advice of the five emperors should now be expressed in terms of their achievements, in response to the destiny of heaven, and in compliance with the hearts of all spirits and people. When you enter the position of emperor"
". Righteous authority, stabilize the three realms, protect all living beings!"
After Taibai Jinxing finished reading, he turned around and bowed to the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor nodded slightly, and then said loudly to everyone: "Fang Jian, Erlang Shen, Nezha, and Sun Wukong have all made great contributions to the sentient beings in the heaven. Now they have pacified the four major continents during the calamity. Therefore, they have been favored by the heaven and sent down the destiny. This is It is the destiny of the four immortal ministers to hold the position of rectifying the heaven, and to control the handle of the heaven."
"I am in charge of power on behalf of the Great Heavenly Lord. Today, I am appointed by Heaven to serve as the official successor to the four Immortal Lords." The Jade Emperor said slowly.
At this time, Fang Jian and the others bowed and said, "I would like to express my gratitude to the Great Heavenly Lord and His Majesty the Jade Emperor for his kindness."
The edict read by Taibai Jinxing was just to discuss the merits of Fang Jian and others, and then told everyone in the palace how the Heavenly Court was going to canonize Fang Jian and the four people. The main reasons for the canonization were not only the merits but also destiny, etc.
However, the specific canonization decree was no longer announced by Taibai Jinxing, but was personally presided over by Emperor Ziwei.
Emperor Ziwei stood up and bowed to the Jade Emperor. At the same time, Taoism, Buddhism, Xuanjiao, Demonism, and all gods and officials all faced the Jade Emperor and bowed slightly.
Then, Emperor Ziwei loudly announced: "Haotian Golden Tower, Jade Emperor, Great Heavenly Lord, Xuan Qiong Gao God's decree, and the decree of His Majesty the Jade Emperor: Nine Heavens Xuan Yuan Hong Qing Zhenjun Fang Jian Jin Emperor's honorary title, the title 'Tai Su Dao Zhen Xuan Tian Puhua Emperor'" , in charge of the general affairs of the Heavenly Court and the Three Realms, and serves as the 'Emperor in Chief of the Heavenly Court and the Three Realms'."
When Emperor Ziwei finished speaking, he saw a ray of sky falling from the sky of Lingxiao Palace, shining directly on Fang Jian.
Then I saw Fang Jian's body shining with mysterious light, and the light from the sky lasted for nine breaths before dissipating.
As the daylight dispersed, Fang Jian was seen wearing a twelve-glazed crown on his head, wearing black clothes and sash, with a large Bailuo belt around his waist, yellow knee coverings, and the Hongqing Divine Sword hanging on his left waist.
The Mianfu Xuanyi has sun, moon and Taichu ancestral dragon patterns woven on the shoulders, stars and mountain patterns on the back, and fire, Chinese insects and Zongyi patterns on the sleeves. There are two coats of arms, two coats of algae, two coats of rice, two coats of embroidery, and two coats of embroidery.
Fang Jian holds a white jade wat in his hand, wears a crown on his head, wears a crown robe, and wears a magic sword on his waist. He is so powerful that he has a majestic appearance!
At this time, a nine-color treasure lotus platform slowly emerged under the Five Emperors and Liangyi Emperors. Emperor Ziwei raised his hand and said: "Emperor Hongqing, please return to your seat."
After Emperor Ziwei finished speaking, a cloud of light appeared directly from Fang Jian's feet, and he lifted Fang Jian and flew to the nine-color lotus platform.
Fang Jian landed on the lotus platform and immediately bowed his head to Emperor Wu Yu and Emperor Liang Yi. Emperor Wu Yu and Emperor Liang Yi also stood up and returned the salute. Now, nominally speaking, Fang Jian, Emperor Wu Yu and Emperor Liang Yi were Taoists. They are friends, but their status is still below them.
When Queen Mother Xi returned the gift, she stared at Fang Jian with burning eyes. This made Fang Jian very puzzled. Didn't she steal the flat peach?
But this was all a trivial matter. Fang Jian then bowed to the Jade Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Fang Jian, pays homage to His Majesty the Jade Emperor."
The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "Emperor Hongqing, please be flat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fang Jian stood up and turned around. At this moment, he felt what it meant to be supreme. Although there were five emperors and two emperors above his head, when he turned around and looked down , whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, mysticism or demonism, or immortals, gods, and officials, they are all under his gaze.
At the moment when Fang Jian turned around, all the Daluo, Immortal Gods, and Immortal Officials, except Doumu Yuanjun, Chaos Yuanmo, and Randeng Ancient Buddha, all bowed to Fang Jian and said: " Pay homage to Taisu Dao Zhenxuan Tianpuhua Hongqing Emperor."
Fang Jian pressed the sword with his left hand, stretched out his right hand to support him and said, "Fellow Taoists, please make your body level."
"Thank you, Emperor Hongqing." The sound of thanks came out from the mountains, and all the immortals and gods stood up.
Later, Emperor Ziwei sang again: "Haotian Golden Tower, Jade Emperor, Great Heavenly Lord, Xuan Qiong Gao God's edict, and His Majesty the Jade Emperor's decree: Qingyuan Miaodao Erlang showed the sage, true emperor, Jin Emperor, and was titled 'Qingyuan Miaodao Zhaohui Rensheng'" Emperor'. He is in charge of the 'Shenxiao Jade Mansion' and serves as the 'Chief Photographer of the Shenxiao Jade Mansion'."
After Emperor Ziwei's words fell, light fell from the sky again. Nine breaths later, God Erlang also wore a crown, a crown, and a divine sword at his waist. He was led by the cloud light to the Nine Color Lotus Platform on the left side of Fang Jian. Certainly.
The Erlang God also bowed to the Five Emperors and Liangyi Emperors first, then paid homage to the Jade Emperor, and then turned around to accept the worship of the immortal gods and immortal officials.
Emperor Ziwei continued to sing: "Haotian Golden Tower, Jade Emperor, Great Heavenly Lord, Xuan Qiong Gao God's edict, and the decree of His Majesty the Jade Emperor: Xuanwei Holy Buddha, Qitian Tianjun, Sun Wukong, is promoted to the throne of emperor, and he is titled 'Xuanwei Fights Qitian Holy Buddha Emperor', palm 'Shen Lei Jade Mansion', his position is 'The Chief Photographer of the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion'."
Hearing the edict to Sun Wukong, not only Sun Wukong himself was stunned, but also Fang Jian and other emperors and gods were stunned.
Only the Jade Emperor and the Five Emperors looked normal. Then everyone turned to look at the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunderous Universal Transformation Heavenly Lord, but Lei Zu smiled faintly and said: "I have resigned from Your Majesty and the Five Emperors, and I have to remove some For the priesthood, after the calamity is over, you should practice in seclusion until you break it."
After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that it seemed that Lei Zu was going to become the Great Luo Jinxian, so he resigned from the priesthood and was replaced by Sun Wukong.
I saw that Sun Wukong was also awarded the emperor's imperial crown under the sky, and was then led to the Nine Color Lotus Platform. However, Sun Wukong bowed to Lei Zu first and saluted, and Lei Zu slowly stood up and returned the salute.
Then Sun Wukong paid homage to the Five Emperors and Liangyi Emperors, and finally paid homage to the Jade Emperor.
Looking at the majestic 'Buddha Emperor' Sun Wukong in a royal robe, Si Lu Xingjun Han Chen whispered to Siming Xing Jun: "When he was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he shouted, 'Emperors take turns, come to my house this year', Now we are really at his house.”
Si Mingxingjun nodded and said with enthusiasm: "Yes, yes."
After Sun Wukong accepted the audience of all the immortal gods and immortal officials, Emperor Ziwei finally preached: "Haotian Jinque Jade Emperor Xuan Qiong Gao God's decree, His Majesty the Jade Emperor's decree: Fu De Ming Wei San Tan Hai Hui Zhenjun Nezha The position of Emperor of the Jin Dynasty is titled 'Emperor of Taiyi Middle Altar to Proclaim Power and Zhenwu', he is in charge of 'the conquests of the Heavenly Court, the Three Realms and all the military power of the Heavenly Court', and his position is 'the Emperor of the Expeditionary Army and Chief Photographer'."
Then Nezha was also crowned and crowned by the sky light, and then lifted up by the cloud light and landed on the nine-color lotus platform.
Mrs. Yin, who was among the first-grade immortal officials below, covered her mouth and cried when she saw this scene, her eyes filled with the pride and joy of a mother.
The youngest son who loved getting into trouble the most and was the least troublesome back then is now the person who has achieved the most, even his father is far behind.
After all the immortals, gods and officials paid homage to Nezha, the Jade Emperor ordered everyone to return to their immortal positions, while Fang Jian and the four others remained standing.
Because the Jade Emperor then announced: "All affairs in heaven and the three realms during the calamity will be fully presided over by the 'Four Emperors of Heaven's Mandate."
The Four Emperors of Lingxiao were the original Four Friends of Lingxiao, the four Fang Jian who held the "Four Swords of Lingxiao".
No one objected to this decision, because the four Fang Jian men holding the Four Swords of Lingxiao gave the "concept" of Heavenly Court the destiny. In the future, the legitimacy of Heavenly Court no longer needs to be sought from the Great Heavenly Lord, as long as the Four Swords of Lingxiao are in Heavenly Court, There is a "mandate of heaven" in heaven, and there is legitimacy recognized by heaven. This is very important.
Of course, it must be made clear here that the Four Swords of Lingxiao are divine swords that are used by those who have attained the Dao of Destiny to use the Dao of Destiny to bring down the Destiny, thereby causing the Dao of Heaven to descend. Therefore, the Four Swords of Lingxiao are given by the Dao of Heaven.
When the Jade Emperor finished speaking, Fang Jian immediately turned around and bowed his head to the Jade Emperor, and then his eyes fell on Doumu Yuanjun. His face was expressionless and extremely indifferent: "Fellow Taoist Doumu Yuanjun."
Doumu Yuanjun smiled, stood up and bowed his head to Fang Jian, saying, "I have met Emperor Hongqing."
Fang Jian stretched out his right hand and said calmly: "Fellow Taoist, please hand over the Heavenly Dao Treasure."
Doumu Yuanjun raised his hand and took out the "Tiandao Treasure Barrier", but did not send it to Fang Jian. Instead, he said: "Emperor Hongqing, Pindao is the Jade Emperor's disciple, and he is in charge of the Heavenly Dao Treasure Barrier by the Jade Emperor's order."
Fang Jian was slightly startled when he heard this, but immediately realized that Lord Doumu Yuan was reminding him that he should first be deprived of his status as 'Emperor Master' and then retrieve the 'Treasure of Heaven's Path'.
"I, in accordance with the destiny of heaven, decree that Lord Doumu Yuan be deprived of his position as 'Emperor's Master', and all the authority of the Heavenly Dao Treasure and the Jade Emperor's Master be taken back." Fang Jian said calmly.
Lord Doumu Yuan bowed and said, "I sincerely obey the decree of Emperor Hongqing."
Then the Tiandao treasure in Doumu Yuanjun's hand turned into a mysterious light and flew to Fang Jian's hand.
Fang Jian held the Treasure Trap of Heaven in both hands, turned around and bowed to the Jade Emperor: "Your Majesty, I have taken back the Treasure Trap of Heaven and returned it to Your Majesty."
The Jade Emperor smiled faintly and did not take back the Treasure Trap of Heaven. Instead, he said to Fang Jian: "Emperor Hongqing, this Treasure Trap of Heaven is in your hands for the time being."
Fang Jian was slightly surprised when he heard this, and then said: "I have little merit and little virtue, so I might not be able to hold this treasure. Please, Your Majesty, choose another virtuous king to bestow it on me."
The Jade Emperor said: "During the calamity, all the emperors in the Daluo Heaven are either stationed in one place or trying to escape the calamity in the Daluo Heaven. Only you, Emperor Hongqing, are determined to eliminate the calamity and stabilize the three realms. The "Treasure of Heaven's Way" is given to you now. I have helped you achieve this great cause, so please don’t resign modestly.”
After the Jade Emperor finished speaking, the Five Emperors also said to Fang Jian: "Emperor Hongqing, it would be best for you to be in charge of the Heavenly Treasures, so don't refuse."
After hearing the words of the Five Emperors, Fang Jian respectfully accepted the order, and then officially took over the Heavenly Dao Treasure.
After Fang Jian put away the Heavenly Dao Treasure Box, he turned around again and said to everyone in the Dao Sect: "Everyone in the Dao Sect will be deprived of the authority to control the Heavenly Court. From now on, you will not be able to interfere in the political affairs of the Heavenly Court."
The Taoist disciples were very embarrassed today, but they couldn't get angry. They could only be punished by Fang Jian in front of everyone.
"Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao, you took advantage of the danger at the beginning of the calamity to cause trouble and trapped His Majesty the Jade Emperor in a dangerous place. Your crime is extremely serious!" Fang Jian said.
When the three Yunxiao sisters heard this, Bixiao, who had the most bad temper, couldn't help it anymore and stood up and said: "Aren't we doing this just to measure the calamity? Are we doing it for ourselves? The Zhuwu sect is invading the three realms. We The Taoist sect also took the lead in resisting the Zhuwu sect. Emperor Hongqing, you want to punish my Taoist sect now! Then you can do it!"
Speaking of this, Bixiao ignored his identity as Da Luo and shed tears directly in the hall, "I admit that I had a personal grudge against you, Emperor Hongqing, but it has been more than ten years since the calamity began. That little gap has long been gone." It has passed, but everything our Taoist sect has done is not for ourselves! Buddhism is deeply trapped in the age of the end of Dharma, and the Heavenly Court is far from enough to resist the non-sects. Only our Taoist sect takes the initiative to take on this responsibility. Are you willing, Emperor Hongqing? Have you seen the Zhuwu sect entering the three realms of the present world to plunder the avenue?"
After Bixiao finished speaking, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She stood with Qiongxiao and wiped away her tears in grievance. Although Yunxiao didn't cry, she also stood there with sadness on her face.
Fang Jian said calmly: "Even if you don't hold His Majesty the Jade Emperor hostage, Heaven will work with your Taoist sect to resist the Zhuwu sect. Why do you have to take this worst path?"
Hearing Fang Jian's words, everyone turned their attention to Lord Doumu. Seeing this situation, Lord Doumu said, "Pindao's original intention is to keep the Heavenly Court out of the matter, so Pindao The Taoist hijacked His Majesty the Jade Emperor and monopolized the power. Emperor Hongqing, all this is the fault of the Taoist and has nothing to do with everyone in the Taoist sect."
Doumu Yuanjun was going to take all the blame and responsibility on himself. Fang Jian looked at Doumu Yuanjun with an indifferent expression and was about to speak, but unexpectedly the Jade Emperor spoke at this time: "Emperor Hongqing, you are a Taoist man. Although it is hateful, it is also merciful. Since fellow Taoist Master Doumu Yuanjun has taken the initiative to bear the blame, let her take the blame and make meritorious deeds."
Fang Jian felt helpless when he heard this. His original intention was to severely punish Lord Doumu Yuan. Even if he didn't punish him severely now, he would punish him severely after the calamity was over.
But now that the Jade Emperor spoke, Fang Jian could only bow and accept the order, "I will obey your Majesty's will."
Then Fang Jian asked Doumu Yuanjun: "Doumu Yuanjun, are you willing to take the blame and make meritorious service?"
Doumu Yuanjun smiled faintly and said, "I am willing."
Fang Jian nodded, then bowed to Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao and said, "Fellow Taoists, this matter has been concluded. Please return to your posts."
Sanxiao slowly calmed down his emotions, then returned the salute to Fang Jianji, and then sat back on the throne with Yuanjun Doumu.
After dealing with the affairs of the Taoist sect, Fang Jian looked at the demon sect with indifferent eyes, and asked in a solemn voice: "Fellow Taoists, why did the demon sect open a boundary passage without authorization and invade the treasure realm to invade the great world of Jamfu? !”
