Chapter 454: The Great Tribulation of the Gods and the List of Gods

Nine years have passed in a flash.

The Five Turbidities and Evil Times made the human world more and more chaotic, and with the recovery of the fallen immortals and evil gods, the truth about heaven and hell spread out and became known to everyone.

The impact of this truth can be described as the most serious disaster since the Five Turbidities and Evil Worlds.

Fortunately, a deity named Jiutian Yinyang Daluo Emperor suddenly emerged, pacified the fallen immortals and slew the evil gods, and also opened many temples to protect all living beings.

The gods under his command are all beautiful women. They fight demons and eliminate evil spirits everywhere, and for a time, peace was restored to the world.

The reason why it was once was that the fallen immortals and evil gods began to restrain themselves and started to support the Jokhang Dynasty, attacking the incense and faith of the Nine Heavens Yin and Yang Emperor.

The main reason is that the weakness of this Yin-Yang Emperor is too big: he loves beauty.

This is not a problem, but the problem is that the other party's harem is too large. Whether it is the gods in the Taoist temple or the priests in the temple, they are basically all women, and once there is a problem, the Yin-Yang Emperor will come to rescue the beauties.

How could the fallen immortals and evil gods, who are the enemy, not see such a huge weakness? Of course they would exploit it to the fullest.

And because there are so many favored people, it is difficult for the secrets of the incense and the gods to remain secret.

Many fallen immortals and evil gods saw that the way of incense and gods had so many advantages, so they began to practice both. After all, there was no conflict between the way of immortals and the way of gods, which led to this group of fallen immortals and evil gods also gaining similar power.

Naturally, the Yin Yang Emperor was unwilling to fall behind, so he supported the rebel army to compete with the Jokhang Dynasty. With the support of the most worshipped god, the rebel army naturally expanded rapidly.

However, there are still many aspects that are criticized, such as the fact that the top leaders of the rebel army are all beautiful women, and they are also given a large number of divine powers.

Although the rebel army was large, there was a lot of intrigue within it.

Not all high-ranking members of the rebel army are capable. Some are simply beautiful and have good personalities, or they are beautiful and have good family backgrounds.

Yes, beauty and being a woman are mandatory requirements. If you were a man, no matter how capable and meritorious you are, and even if you were appreciated by the Yin-Yang Emperor, you would not be able to achieve the same status.

It was precisely because of this that the power of the Yin-Yang Emperor, which had been sweeping across the world like a mountain torrent and an avalanche, was blocked by the Dazhao court.

The main reason is that men can't get ahead in your place, and women want to get ahead but they have to look good, but there aren't that many people who can meet those requirements.

More importantly, according to gossip, all women in high positions must serve the Emperor of Yin and Yang.

This news is actually true, but it has become a rumor because of the public opinion war.

However, the Emperor of Yin and Yang is indeed a capable man. Even with such a group of burdens, he can still fight against the fallen immortals and evil gods in heaven and hell on equal terms.

If it were someone else, he would have been eaten up long ago.

[Ding, today's sign-in is successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining: Shinto Treasure·Investiture of the Gods]

Xu Yi opened his eyes slightly. He didn’t care much at first. It was just a Shinto magic weapon. It was not like he had never signed in before.

But when he suddenly opened his eyes again, he realized that he had read a word wrong. This was not a Shinto magic weapon at all, it was clearly a Shinto treasure.

The last Shinto treasure he signed in was called the Divine Whip. It was a wooden whip, three feet six inches and five points long, with twenty-one sections. Each section had four talismans, for a total of eighty-four talismans.

The divine whip is specifically used to control one's subordinate gods, divine servants, etc. If anyone disobeys, they will be beaten to death.

But Xu Yi, the Yin-Yang Emperor, had never used it even once. These were all delicate beauties, how could he bear to hit them? Besides, they were all very obedient to him.

There are indeed jealousies, open and covert struggles and other palace fighting dramas behind the scenes, but he likes to watch these beauties fighting for him. As long as it doesn't go too far, he still enjoys this situation.

But it is obvious that the sign-in system did not think this was a good thing, so it signed in a Shinto treasure, the Whip, for him. It was a pity that the pearl was wasted.

However, this Shinto treasure, the Investiture of the Gods, is different. Once obtained and activated, it can turn into a Shinto catastrophe.

Among them, there are loyal ministers and righteous men on the list; there are those who did not become immortals but became gods; each has its own depth, thickness, and fate, so there are gods of different ranks and different orders of death. Those with deep roots and deeds become immortals; those with medium roots and deeds become gods; and those with shallow roots and deeds become human beings. This is destiny, and it is not trivial. Moreover, there is a seal, and we can only know the clues after death.

To put it simply, in this catastrophe, as long as a talented person dies, he will be included in the list, and finally controlled by the List of Gods, becoming a god in the list, and with the help of the Divine Whip, life and death are all under his control.

The disadvantages are also obvious. Once you are on the list, your strength will not change throughout your life and will be fixed at the time of death.

Including those fallen immortals and evil gods, once they die in the Shinto calamity, they will still be on the list and will not be able to escape.

This made Xu Yi excited. Finally, there was a way to break the impasse.

However, he quickly calmed down. In terms of Shinto power, he was indeed far superior to the other party.

But if it comes to war, it will only end in a stalemate, and in the end, it is hard to say whether there will be more people on our side or the enemy's side on the list of gods.

How could he not know that the all-female camp under his command was actually a burden, but he just couldn't give it up.

Over the years, through the sign-in rewards, he had already evolved the "Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang Harmony Ode" to a level that was not inferior to his divine way. If we were to talk about the quality of the Taoist tradition, this dual cultivation Taoist tradition would now be ranked among the top three in the Taoist traditions of the Xianxia world. The original Yin and Yang Taoism naturally changed from the main vein to the secondary vein, becoming an insignificant part. If it continued to evolve, it would probably disappear.

"The best way is to start a war of gods."

"Using blitzkrieg to eliminate a large number of fallen immortals and evil gods in a short period of time will lay a sufficient foundation for me."

As long as he takes the initiative and accumulates the immortals and gods under his control in the List of Gods, then those delicate beauties of his will don't have to fight at all, and can just let the fallen immortals and evil gods take action.

But there is also a risk here, that is, if he wants to achieve this plan, he can only do it himself.

Now that he has reached the status of a first-class god, his strength cannot be underestimated.

However, it is still a bit unrealistic to want to control the direction of the situation by one person.

If he really took action himself, he would probably be beaten up.

“If one can break through to the first-grade divine path and achieve the supreme position, the fallen immortal evil god and Da Zhao can be destroyed in a snap.” Xu Yi said hatefully.

He has been stuck at the first level of divine path for a long time and has been unable to break through the bottleneck.

"This may be my chance to break through to the Supreme God." A gleam of light flashed in Xu Yi's eyes.

His confidence came from the Shinto calamity caused by the List of Gods. If successful, he would be able to completely break through this bottleneck with the help of the incense and merits gained from eliminating the Shinto calamity.

"It is so important that it is definitely worth the risk." Xu Yi made a plan. When he activated the List of Gods to form the Divine Dao Catastrophe, he would go and kill the fallen immortals and evil gods and invite them to be included in the list.

It's okay to take the risk yourself, but it's not okay to let the group of delicate beauties in the harem go.

Even though he is now in a high position, his habit of enjoying the four beauties has not disappeared.

"It's a shame that Gao Zheng is helping the tyrant. If he makes the list, he will definitely not be in a good situation!"

Thinking of this, a strong murderous intent appeared in Xu Yi's eyes.

The current Emperor Zhao is none other than Gao Zheng, the eighth son of Prince Zhong.

Back then, he passed on his skills to Gao Zheng, who used this to squeeze the money out of the people to gain resources for cultivation. Finally, he reached his current position step by step by eliminating dissidents and using magic powers.

It would be fine if he could suppress Emperor Zhao's curse, but not only did he fail to suppress it, he became even more cruel and brutal than previous Emperor Zhao. In recent years, he has received support from the fallen immortals and evil gods, and his behavior has not only not stopped, but has become even worse. Even with the suppression of him, the Emperor of Yin and Yang, he still commits many evil deeds.

Correspondingly, Xu Yi was also implicated. Every time Gao Zheng did evil, the karma generated would be shared with Xu Yi.

This matter is rather obscure, and the only person who knows about it is Xu Yi.

The main reason is that no one knows that Xu Yi is the Emperor of Yin and Yang.

Xu Yi naturally regretted this very much. If he had known this earlier, he would not have passed on the skills to him.

After embarking on the path of Shinto, he finally understood why ascetics were so strict in selecting disciples and methods. Now he had experienced the backlash firsthand.

If he had not passed on the Dharma at the beginning, none of these subsequent events would have happened, and he would not have created a powerful enemy for himself.

Gao Zheng is very resourceful and capable, and his brutality does not affect his ability to hold his position securely.

The person who had the greatest contribution in stopping the spread of the faith and worship of the Yin-Yang Emperor was Gao Zheng.

Moreover, Gao Zheng not only specialized in the way of immortality, but also studied Shintoism as well. Although the rank of Shintoism was not high, he was Emperor Zhao, and his natural legitimacy gave him a great advantage. All he lacked was an opportunity.

Therefore, Xu Yi was naturally very wary of Gao Zheng. If the other party had not enshrined many fallen immortals and evil gods in the palace, he would have gone over and killed him long ago.

"We need to plan carefully to kill the fallen immortal evil god. We can't be so reckless."

In Xu Yi's mind, a lot of names emerged, most of which were male immortals and gods chosen by him as thugs.

As for female immortals and gods, there is no rush for that, it still depends on their beauty.

"System, besides the Divine Whip and the List of Gods, are there any other Shinto treasures that complement each other?" Xu Yi asked.

The sign-in system communicates with him less and less, but he doesn't care. After all, he doesn't need a person to communicate with. With his current status and position, there are many people who want to communicate with him, and they speak much more pleasantly than the sign-in system.

[Not sure, just sign in yourself]

The sign-in system responded promptly, but it could be seen between the lines that he was already extremely distant from Xu Yi, and all he said was more businesslike, and he no longer joked or made puns with Xu Yi like before.

Not getting the answer he wanted, Xu Yi did not continue to ask, but just said coldly: "I know, you go ahead."
