"Xuan Lie, you help the Great Emperor of the Hongqing Dynasty to protect the Jade Emperor and the Great Heavenly Lord, and all living beings in the three realms of heaven have made contributions. The Great Emperor of the Hongqing Dynasty expresses your achievements to the Jade Emperor and the Great Heavenly Lord. The Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Lord, I have issued a decree to confer you the title of Heaven's True God, 'Xujiang Water God', are you willing to accept the order?" Zhang Liang, the commander of the Taixuan Bureau, asked Xuanlie outside the Tiantian Gate of Central Jun.
Xuanlie is the turtle demon who helped Fang Jian imprison the twelve hairpins transformed by the Seven Emotions and Six Desires of the Jade Emperor in the Zangzhen Realm. Fang Jian had already demonstrated his merits before retreating.
So now, although the decree is nominally issued by the Jade Emperor, it is actually the decree issued by the Nine Heavens Xuannv.
The Jade Emperor is the ruler of the three realms, and it does not require the Jade Emperor's personal intervention to enthrone a righteous god, so he can just transfer Fang Jian's memorial to the Nine Heavens Xuannv of Xuanyang Palace.
In the past, the Water God of the Lower Realm was only a sixth-grade immortal official, but now that the Gods List has entered the world, the mountain gods, water gods, and earth gods are all righteous gods, ranking above the immortal officials.
Although Xuan Lie didn't know this, being granted the title of God by the Heavenly Court was something that many demon cultivators dreamed of, so Xuan Lie would naturally not refuse.
Didn't he help Fang Jian so diligently just to find a way out in heaven? What future can there be as a demon cultivator in the lower realm?
So Xuan Lie immediately bowed to Zhang Liang and said, "Little demon Xuan Lie thanks the Jade Emperor for his kindness. Little demon Xuan Lie is willing to accept the order and benefit all living beings."
"Well, just wait here." Zhang Liang said to Xuan Lie.
Then Zhang Liang turned around and entered the Tianmen. Soon after, a golden light fell directly from above. In the golden light, a golden helmet and golden armor appeared, a heavenly general covered in golden light.
"I am Xu Zhengdao, the heavenly general on duty at Nantianmen. Are you Xuanlie, a monk from the Tibetan Realm?" Xu Zhengdao asked Xuanlie.
Xuan Lie was shocked when he heard this. He turned out to be Tianyouxing, one of the thirty-six Tiangang Star Lords. He immediately bowed his head and bowed: "Little demon Xuanlie, pay my respects to Tianyouxing Lord."
The three hundred and sixty-five star kings in Zhoutian are all in the position of 'righteous gods and gods'. Xuanlie is the water god who has been awarded the position of 'righteous gods and gods'. Theoretically, the two are of the same level.
But this is just a theory. Don't forget what I said before. If you have the same rank in Heaven, you will need to achieve the status. Zhou Tianxingjun all has the status of 'True King', while Xuan Lie does not have the status.
At the same time, there is another point. The Zhoutian Star Monarch moves the Zhoutian Stars, and his power and position cannot be compared to that of the water god of a river.
After Xuan Lie paid his respects, Xu Zhengdao nodded, and then said: "According to the decree of Xuanyang Palace, I am here to take you to Nantianmen to be sealed."
After saying that, Xu Zhengdao raised his hand and waved, and a golden light instantly fell on Xuan Lie. Then Xu Zhengdao took the golden light and took Xuan Lie to fly out of the central Juntian instantly. After a stick of incense, he entered the Daluotian and landed in the south. Outside Tianmen.
Looking at the towering Nantian Gate in front of him, reaching up to the sky, Xuan Lie was greatly shocked. "I once heard that these four gates were built on the four legs of Empress Nuwa when she killed the 'Innate Divine Ao'." Tianzhu."
Xu Zhengdao nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed the four heavenly pillars transformed by the four legs of the innate god Ao that became the four heavenly gates today."
Having said this, Xu Zhengdao suddenly glanced at Xuanlie and said, "Are you a turtle or a turtle?"
Xuan Lie quickly replied: "God bless you Xingjun, the little demon is a turtle."
"Yes." Xu Zhengdao said to Xuan Lie, "Wait here, the edict from Xuanyang Palace will arrive soon."
Xuan Lie raised his head and glanced at the Tianzhu of Nantian Gate, then quickly looked away and said respectfully: "Yes."
Soon, a golden treasure chariot drove to the outside of the Nantian Gate under the protection of heavenly soldiers. Then the jade curtain of the treasure chariot slowly opened, and a plump and dignified female fairy walked out of the treasure chariot.
God Blessed Star Lord Xu Zhengdao immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands towards the female immortal and said, "Fellow Taoist Yao Ji."
The person who came was none other than Wushan Empress Yao Ji, who is also the current Dong Shen Hall's "Dong Shen Zhenwen".
Yao Ji stepped down from the chariot and bowed her head to Xu Zhengdao in return. Then she came to Xuan Lie with a jade edict in her hand and said, "Xuan Lie listens to the order."
Xuan Lie quickly bowed down and said, "Xuan Lie, the little demon, accepts the order."
Then Yaoji read out the edict to confer Xuanlie, which roughly stated his merits and achievements, and then conferred him the title of "Xujiang Water God" of Dongsheng Shenzhou, and rewarded him with fifty thousand robbery jade, a box of fairy fruits, and a ninth-grade golden elixir. A 'True Immortal Golden Pill' to help him pick the True Immortal Dao Fruit as soon as possible.
Xuan Lie's heart beat violently, and he was so excited that he immediately bowed to thank him, then raised his hands to accept the decree.
At this time, another heavenly soldier walked up to Xuanlie carrying a jade plate. Xuanlie looked at the jade plate and saw nothing else in the plate, only a long jade box.
At this time, Yaoji said: "In this jade box is the 'Golden Seal of Tianlu', which is the authority and identity of your official position as a priest. From now on, whenever you give orders or receive orders, you must have this golden seal. This Tianlu The gold medal also has the ability to store things. The robbery jade, fairy fruit, golden elixir and even your official uniform that are rewarded to you are all in this Tianlu gold medal. Now you can open the jade box and put your hand on Tianlu Go up to the gold medal."
The Tianlu Golden Medal was the former Immortal Official Jade Certificate. Previously, the Immortal Official Jade Certificate was awarded by the "Tiandao Baolu". Now that the Tiandao Baolu has been included in the list of gods, the Immortal Official Jade Certificate has naturally become the Tianlu Gold Medal. , and the Tianlu Gold Medal of Heavenly Gods and Immortals is also awarded by the list of gods.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Lie immediately bowed and then stretched out his hands to pick up the jade box from the jade plate. Then he opened the jade box. A golden light instantly illuminated Xuan Lie's eyes, and a thick and exquisite gold medal appeared. In front of Xuan Lie.
Xuan Lie raised his right hand and placed his fingers on the Tianlu Gold Medal. The next moment, the Tianlu Gold Medal emitted a bright golden light, instantly covering Xuan Lie's entire body.
Then Xuan Lie's name immediately appeared on the list of gods, and Xuan Lie himself was also on the list at this moment, becoming a 'righteous god', and all his immortal desires were deprived of him on the list of gods.
When the golden light dissipated, Xuan Lie's eyes were clear and his mind was calm. He put the Tianlu gold medal into the Niwan Palace, and then bowed to Yao Ji.
Yao Ji also bowed her head in return. From this moment on, Xuan Lie officially became the priest of heaven.
Yao Ji took the treasure chariot and went to Xuanyang Palace to pay her respects, while Xuan Lie paid his respects to Xu Zhengdao, the God Blessed Star King, and then went directly to the boundary from the Jieguan outside Nantianmen.
The boundary gates outside the four heavenly gates can only be walked by heavenly gods. Before, Xuanlie needed Xu Zhengdao to guide him. Now that he has become the righteous god of heaven, he naturally has the right to go down to the realm from the boundary gates.
Dongsheng Shenzhou, Yumingzhou, Xujiang Prefecture.
Xujiang Prefecture is named after the "Xujiang River". The seven-thousand-mile Xujiang River is mighty and supports Xujiang Prefecture's six million people and hundreds of millions of lives.
In the dead of night, with the moon and stars scarce, a spiritual light fell from the sky and flew into the Xu River.
This was Xuan Lie who came to take up the post at Xujiang Water Mansion. Xuanlie used his magic power to descend to the bottom of the water, only to find that the undercurrent of the Xujiang River was extremely turbulent, and the rocks on the bottom of the water were deep and uneven.
Xuan Lie glanced at the turbid water in front of him, only to find many skeletons sandwiched among the rocks at the bottom of the water.
Xuan Lie stepped forward to take a closer look and found that they were all human bones. Only a few skeletons among them were large and thick, and they should be the skeletons of adults.
Most of the skeletons were small and thin, probably the skeletons of teenagers and young children, and these small skeletons were full of uneven tooth marks. Xuan Lie immediately understood that there was a man-eating water monster in the Xu River!
"Could it be that Xujiang didn't have a water god before?" Xuanlie thought with some confusion.
Moreover, this water monster specializes in eating children. It seems to be a monster that practices evil magic. Because there are no teeth marks on the large skeleton, it is obvious that it died of drowning.
Thinking of this, Xuanlie immediately used his magic power to swim against the water, and soon arrived at the center of the Xujiang River, where the Xujiang Water Palace is located.
Whether it is a mountain temple, an earth temple, or a water god's water palace, its location is fixed. It must be at the central location of this area to facilitate the gods to control the entire jurisdiction.
Xuanlie is now the water god of Xujiang River, that is, the righteous god of Xujiang River, and is the 'god' in charge of rules and authority, so the authority given to him by the list of gods is that the entire Xujiang River is under his control.
Therefore, Xuan Lie can control all the 'power of water' in the entire Xujiang River without using much magic power.
However, when Xuan Lie came to the location of Xujiang Water Mansion, he was surprised, because there were only some ruins left in Xujiang Water Mansion, which looked dilapidated, and only a few little demons lived in the ruins.
When Xuan Lie, who was in the Yang God Realm, came to the ruins of Shui Mansion, he deliberately released his divine power, and the little demons below were immediately alarmed.
Only four or five little monsters in ragged clothes with fish fins on their backs and chests swam out. They all bowed to Xuan Lie and said, "Young ones have seen the Immortal."
Xuan Lie looked at the little demons in front of him and asked, "Is this the Xujiang Water Palace?"
The leader of a little demon saw that Xuan Lie was upright and not gloomy even though he was very majestic, so he bravely replied: "Go back to Shangxian, this is where the original Xujiang Water Palace was."
Xuan Lie asked again: "Then why did it become like this?"
The little demon replied again: "Back to the Immortal, I don't know much about it. I just heard from those older demon cultivators that a great disaster had happened between heaven and earth before. The original Xujiang Water God and Xujiang Water Mansion They were destroyed together in the disaster."
When Xuan Lie heard this, he immediately understood. What the little demon was talking about must be 'Measurement of Tribulation'. Although 'Jade Emperor Measuring Tribulation' had not happened for less than five hundred years, to the human world and these little demons, it was already Great changes have taken place.
It can also be seen from this that there is indeed a lot of waste in the Three Realms waiting to be revitalized. Even in the great world of Jambudur, the righteous gods in various places have not yet been replenished.
Xuan Lie nodded. He did not embarrass these little monsters, but asked: "Do you know any big monsters in Xujiang River?"
When the little demons heard this, they immediately looked at each other, and then looked at Xuan Lie cautiously.
Xuan Lie asked: "What? Don't you dare to say it?"
The leader of the little demon said: "Back to the Immortal, it's not that I dare not say that there is indeed a great demon in the Xujiang River, named 'King Qingmao', and he is a demon immortal."
At this time, another little demon interrupted and said: "The King Qingtu has been ruling the waters of the Xujiang River for three hundred years!"
Xuan Lie nodded slightly when he heard this, then smiled and said: "I understand, thank you very much."
The little demons repeatedly waved their hands and said "dare not", and then the leader of the little demons asked: "May I ask where the immortal wants to go?"
Xuan Lie raised his hand and pointed at the ruins of Shui Mansion in front of him and said, "This is the place."
