Penglai Holy Land
Biyou Palace
Five saints sit on cloud beds.
The essence of Yuchen lingers, and the auspicious light of the sun and moon blooms.
Hearing Yuanshi Tianzun's words, Master Tongtian frowned slightly, "Second brother, I have misunderstood. Junior nephew Xuandu shoulders the important responsibility of inheriting humanity, so it is not easy for him to be on the list."
"Um."
Saint Taiqing nodded slightly and said softly: "Since you two said so, then Xuandu will stay with me."
After a pause, he continued: "However, since Xuandu is not on the list, the issue of becoming a god has nothing to do with our religion. You can discuss who among the disciples of the two religions should be on the list, and there is no need to ask me again. "
After saying that, he closed his eyes slightly, as if he was about to fall asleep.
In the square below, Yu Yuan couldn't help but raise his head and take a second look at the Taiqing Saint.
Although this Taiqing Saint seemed to be "don't get involved in anything" at the moment, in the Great Tribulation of the Gods that Yu Yuan knew, this Taiqing Saint often took action personally, and even took the initiative!
When Jie Jiao set up the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation, the Zhuxian Formation, and the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, the Taiqing Saint was there in person.
When Lord Tongtian just set up the Immortal Killing Formation, he took the initiative to explore the formation and fought with Lord Tongtian first. Then he cooperated with Yuanshi Tianzun to break the Immortal Killing Formation with the belated Second Saint of the West.
Moreover, he not only attacked the leader of Tongtian Cult, but also showed no mercy when facing the younger disciples.
Among the eight major disciples of Jiejiao, two were taken away by him.
It can be seen from this that this Taiqing saint, who is known for his "pure and inaction", is not as "inaction" as the world thinks!
And his words were very inappropriate at the moment.
Because his words conveyed an important message - as long as Xuandu is not on the list, the matter of becoming a god has nothing to do with him.
Logically speaking, as the head of the Three Pure Ones and the first disciple of the Xuanmen, he should be in charge of the matter of deification. 33
But he just closed his eyes and looked like he was in love.
So, who will be in charge of conferring the gods?
The answer is self-evident, it is naturally Yuanshi Tianzun, the sage of Yuqing.
So after Saint Taiqing made his attitude clear, many immortals and gods immediately looked at Yuanshi Tianzun.
The saint waved his hand, and a folded scroll emerged from the sky above the square, instantly attracting the attention of all the gods present.
The material that makes up this scroll is neither paper, nor cloth, nor leather, nor bamboo, nor gold, but a rule of heaven.
To be precise, the list of gods is actually just a concrete product of the rules of heaven.
It represents the rules of the operation of heaven. Among the five elements within the Three Realms, as long as there is a name on the list, they will all take their own divine positions under the invisible push.
At this moment, the list of gods has not been opened, and there are no names on it.
Yuanshi Tianzun's expression was indifferent, and his tone was calm and powerful.
"The way of heaven hangs like an elephant, and its rise and fall have been determined."
"The matter of conferring gods is related to the stability of the Three Realms and Six Paths, and it is imminent... At that time, the names on the list will be organized into a total of 365 main gods and two thousand deputy gods to manage the Three Realms and Six Paths, thunder, fire, plague, stars, and the three mountains and five mountains. , rain and clouds, good and evil, blessings and misfortunes..."
"I am in charge of conferring gods. If any of you are willing to be on the list, you can be promoted to the first level when you can be conferred as gods."
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of people stood up and bowed in the square with excited expressions.
"Holy saint, Xiao Zhen, a disciple of the Chan Sect, would like to be on the list of gods!"
"Reporting to the saint, Deng Hua, a disciple of the Chan Sect, is willing to be on the list of gods!"
"..."
Yu Yuanxun looked around and saw that most of the dozens of people who stood up were disciples of the Chan sect, while there were only a few disciples of the Jie sect, and they were all disciples who had practiced for a long time but had low moral standards.
Judging from their shallow nature, it is absolutely impossible for them to survive the three disasters, six disasters and nine tribulations and achieve the golden immortality.
In this case, it is undoubtedly the best choice to go to heaven and become a god, and also enjoy the privilege of "promoting to the first rank" given by the saint.
But as a disciple of a saint, who is not proud and arrogant?
Therefore, there were nearly three thousand disciples of the Jiejiao disciples present, but only these few disciples with the lowest practices and the most superficial roots came forward; while there were a total of thirty or forty people from the Chanjiao disciples, but there were already Half stood up.
Compare the two and make a judgment!
Sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed, the Tongtian Cult Master couldn't help but frown slightly.
At this time, Saint Zhunti of the West glanced at him with a smile, glanced past him, and looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and said: "In order to maintain the stability of the three realms and six realms, all the disciples under my senior brother did not hesitate to give up their own immortality and voluntarily boarded the list of gods. It can be seen that the explanation Jiaozhen is worthy of the reputation of 'carrying the royal order from heaven and leading thousands of immortals to all directions'."
After hearing such praise, Yuanshi Tianzun still looked indifferent, but Tongtian Cult Master frowned, with a look of displeasure on his face.
This displeasure was not directed at Yuanshi Tianzun, but at Saint Zhunti.
Today's discussion of the three religions is a "family matter". You, a Western saint who is not qualified to be a god, just come uninvited. Now you are still standing aside and pointing fingers, flattering and downplaying. I really think this is sowing discord. Is the method invisible to others?
At this time, Yuanshi Tianzun said calmly: "Are there only so many people who volunteer to be on the list?"
As he spoke, he lowered his gaze and glanced at the disciples of the three religions in the square below.
All the Jiejiao disciples lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.
However, the Chanjiao disciples, including Guangchengzi, Chi Jingjing and other twelve golden immortals, stood up one after another.
"Master, this disciple is willing to contribute to maintaining the stability of the world!"
"As disciples of saints, we should maintain the stability of the three realms and six realms... I also want to go to heaven and become a god!"
"Since it is the order of Zixiao Palace, the disciple cannot make it difficult for the master!"
"..."
Seeing that even the direct disciples of such profound saints as the Twelve Golden Immortals took the initiative to "get on the list", the disciples of the Jiejie Sect looked at each other in disbelief, unable to believe their eyes.
Are these Chanjiao disciples crazy?
Are they really willing to ruin their immortality like this?
Are you just giving up on your millions of years of practice?
Among all the disciples of the Jie Sect, the one who was most shocked by this scene was Qiu Shou Xian, one of the Seven Immortals.
At this moment, his eyes widened, and he subconsciously turned to look at Yu Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged behind the Golden Spirit Mother.
He heard this scene mentioned by his nephew!
At that time, he found it unbelievable and vowed that this was absolutely impossible to happen.
The Twelve Golden Immortals are all descended from saints, all of them are profound in their spiritual conduct, and all of them are the best choice due to their good fortune. How could they give up their own immortality?
But he didn't expect that this scene would really happen in front of everyone!
Thinking back to what this nephew said about the "power to become a god", is it possible that the immortals of the Chan Sect really want to use the "power to become a god" to play tricks?
While he was secretly frightened, many Jie Jiao disciples had already stood up and eagerly climbed onto the list.
"Since all fellow Taoists from the Chan Sect can sacrifice their lives to get on the list, how can we, the disciples from the Jie Sect, fall behind?"
"Fellow Taoist Chanjiao is right. The purpose of this apotheosis is to maintain the stability of the Three Realms and Six Paths. As disciples of the saints, we should contribute to maintaining the stability of heaven and earth!"
"Becoming a god is the general trend, we can't embarrass the leader!"
"..."
Seeing the disciples of Jiejiao standing up one after another, the leader of Tongtian Cult, who was sitting high on the cloud bed, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He was aware of the disciples' reluctance to become gods, and he did not want to force his disciples to become gods. However, as Yuanshi Tianzun said, becoming gods was related to the stability of the three realms and six realms, so it was an imperative thing to do.
Now that all the disciples can voluntarily join the list, that would be great.
There were no less than three thousand disciples of Jie Jiao present. Under the stimulation of the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Jiao, hundreds of immortals stood up in just a few moments.
"What a momentum!"
Saint Zhunti said with a smile: "Senior Brother Tongtian didn't say a word, but hundreds of Jiejie disciples have already joined the list. This momentum is worthy of the name of the greatest sect in the world!"
Leader Tongtian glanced at him and said in an unkind tone: "Junior brother has really spared no effort in seeking prosperity for the West."
Saint Zhunti smiled slightly, as if he had not heard his sarcastic remarks.
The Western religion was jointly suppressed by the three sects of Interpretation and Religion, and over the years they could only retreat to the barren Xiniu Hezhou.
If they want to expand and develop, they must face the three religions joining forces or alienating the three religions.
The former is almost impossible to do.
In today's era, when the three religions of Interpretation and Humanity join forces, no force can compete with it.
Therefore, alienating and dividing the three religions became the last resort.
Now is a good opportunity!
The three religions discuss the canonization of gods!
There are many gods, the number of disciples of the three religions is different, and the number of deities who canonize the gods will also be different.
As the saying goes, we don’t suffer from poverty but from inequality!
Judging from the number of disciples of the Three Sects of Interpreting People, it is absolutely impossible to convince everyone in the distribution of divine positions.
Sage Zhunti was keenly aware of this, so he brought his disciples over to join in the fun.
For this group of uninvited guests, Tongtian Cult Master couldn't turn them away, just like he couldn't directly expose the other party's intention to sow discord at this moment.
Now that the matter of canonizing gods was proceeding smoothly, he didn't bother to pay any more attention to it. He turned to look at Yuanshi Tianzun and said: "Since so many disciples have volunteered to go to heaven to become gods, the second brother opened the list of canonized gods and entered everyone's names into it.
Among the mortals, there are also loyal ministers and righteous men who can be on the list, who should be able to fill the remaining gaps. "
"This is inappropriate."
Yuanshi Tianzun said calmly: "All the disciples have their own deep and shallow roots in Taoism, so gods have their own dignity, and death has a sequence. In order to prevent the secret of heaven from being leaked, the names on the list should be sealed without a trace, and they will be visible only after death."
coming!
Yu Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged in the square, felt a shiver in his heart, as the inner drama finally began.
What is Mi Feng Wu Ying?
It’s just that no one can see which immortal gods are on the list of gods!
In this case, isn't that what Yuanshi Tianzun, who is in charge of the list of gods, can say?
Don't look at the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chanjiao who are all taking the initiative to be listed on the list now. When the time comes, you only need to say "We have deep roots and cannot be listed on the list" to fool them.
Of course, for most of the immortals present, Yuanshi Tianzun's words were reasonable, and no one would doubt that a dignified saint would be interested in this matter.
Including the leader of Tongtian.
Although he and Yuanshi Tianzun often had conflicts, to the point where the brothers were at war and the three Qing Dynasties separated their families, these were more of a doctrinal conflict.
So at this moment, although he felt that this method was a bit inappropriate, he didn't say anything more out of trust in his brother.
Just because he doesn't say it, doesn't mean others don't say it.
In the square, a tall man with a green face and a curly beard stood up with a shout, looked at the saints and worshiped: "To the leader, to all the saints, the disciples feel that the names should not be sealed on the list of gods, lest someone secretly tamper with them... "
Hearing this, Yu Yuan was shocked.
Didn't I ask you to request that the list of gods be kept in Jiejiao?
Why are you still questioning the saint?
This is too brave!
Some people died, but not completely...
