Honghuang: I persuaded Zulong to retire, and I was expelled from the dragon clan

Zixiao Palace, the Taoist temple of Hongjun Daozu.

Looking at the Zixiao Palace, Haotian's eyes were filled with complexity and emotion.

Come to think of it, it has been a long time since he became the Emperor of Heaven.

Whenever he thought of the days when he was a Taoist child here, his heart was filled with sorrow.

After many years, he returned here again...

Haotian told Yuanshi that he wanted to come to Daozu to seek justice, and he didn't just say it, he really came!

After all, this was part of his plan, how could he not come!

He looked at himself.

Then, with a thought, in an instant, the imperial robe on his body turned into a Taoist child's clothing.
The next moment, he knelt on the ground without hesitation, and while kowtowing, he said sadly and loudly: "Tongzi Haotian, please see the master!"

His voice trembled slightly, as if he was sobbing.

The dignified Emperor of Heaven, the ruler of the three realms, is actually kneeling here and sobbing?

If this scene were seen by the prehistoric creatures, it would definitely cause an uproar!

The next moment, the gate of Zixiao Palace opened, and Hongjun's voice came from inside: "Come in."

Upon hearing this, Haotian immediately stood up and walked in.

After arriving at the main hall and seeing Hongjun, Haotian knelt down again, crying and saying, "Please, Master, make the decision for Haotian!"

When Hongjun heard Haotian's words, he immediately said in a calm voice: "I already know what you are asking for.

You go back first, I will handle this matter."

When Haotian heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and then he left.

I wish there was a solution to this matter.

As long as there is a solution, all his planning over the years will not be in vain!
After Haotian left, Hongjun slowly opened his eyes.

There was a strange light in his eyes.

I can't tell what he's thinking...

At the same time, Hongjun's voice rang in the ears of the six saints: "Come to Zixiao Palace to discuss matters quickly."

After hearing the message from the Six Saints, the saints had different thoughts.

They were very curious in their hearts. What important matter did Daozu suddenly want to talk to them about?
The other saints were confused, while Yuanshi Tianzun had a thoughtful expression on his face.

Could it be that Haotian really went to Daozu to file a complaint?

Yuanshi guessed secretly in his heart.

Then he shook his head.

There is no use in thinking too much.

You will only know what exactly happened when you go there.

So he set off immediately and rushed towards the Chaos Zixiao Palace.

……

the other side.

Penglai Island.

The voice of Hongjun Daozu echoed in the sky: "My dear friend Ao Yin, please come to Zixiao Palace to discuss matters immediately!"

As for why it didn’t reach Ao Yin’s ears directly?

Because this was also Hongjun's helpless move!

He couldn't figure out Ao Yin's exact location!

Therefore, we can only leave our words on Penglai Island.

All this is naturally because Ao Yin has the precious Tianji Ring on him to conceal his secrets!

After hearing the voice of Hongjun Daozu, the disciples on Penglai Island were suddenly shocked!
They immediately began looking for Ao Yin, wanting to tell him about this matter.

However, they were doing something unnecessary.

Of course Ao Yin also heard Hongjun's message.

He had some guesses about the purpose of this trip to Zixiao Palace.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be about the Tribulation of the Conferred Gods.

Because if you calculate the time, it’s about the same.

However, what made Ao Yin feel a little strange was why he was called to discuss the matter of Conferred Gods?
Could it be that he wanted to take this opportunity to suppress the Wuyin clan?
Ao Yin couldn't help but think more.

Because he knew that Hongjun had always been wary of him!

However, participating in the Conferred God Ceremony was exactly what he wanted.

As for being targeted?
He is not afraid.

As long as you are strong enough, all calculations are in vain!
Thinking of this, Ao Yin no longer hesitated. After giving instructions to several disciples, he set off towards the chaos!
This was a critical period of development, so he certainly couldn't go against Hongjun.

Show weakness to the enemy first, and then settle accounts with them as you please after they have fully grown!

As Ao Yin's thoughts emerged, his figure appeared at the gate of Zixiao Palace.

With his strength, he can reach every corner of the prehistoric world in a single thought!
After entering the Zixiao Palace, Ao Yin discovered that the Six Saints had all arrived!

He was not surprised by this.

Because he deliberately slowed down!
Seeing Ao Yin's arrival, the other saints were a little surprised, but they still greeted him with a smile.

Even Tai Shang, who was usually serious, smiled, which was a rare occurrence at this moment.

This is also normal.

After all, Ao Yin's strength is far beyond theirs!

Whether it is to please or to make friends, they have to be polite to Ao Yin!
At least you can't offend him!
This is the way of the world!
Not long after the greetings ended, Hongjun's figure appeared in the hall.

His eyes swept over everyone present one by one, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

As everyone was feeling a little nervous, Hongjun slowly explained the reason why he had called them here.

"Tens of thousands of years have passed since the Lich Calamity.

Now, there is murderous intent in the sky.

Between heaven and earth, the air is filled with murderous intent.

This indicates that a new catastrophe has arrived!
During this great catastrophe, Haotian happened to come here some time ago and said that the throne of God in his heaven was vacant and there was a shortage of manpower.

This is also God's will.

During this catastrophe, after the death of a living being, if they have enough blessings, their true spirit can be entered into the List of Gods and they can become a true god in heaven and serve the heaven.

When the positions of the 365 gods on the List of Gods are filled, this catastrophe will end!

Of course, you can also sign your names directly on the List of Gods.

The name signed must be a disciple of one's own sect.

Similarly, when all 365 god seats are signed, the catastrophe will disappear!
If you can survive the catastrophe after participating in it, you can become a god in the flesh and gain great benefits! "

After hearing Hongjun's words, the expressions of several saints changed slightly.

There is too much information in Hongjun's words.

First, the great catastrophe is coming.

Then, after the death of the living beings in the catastrophe, their true spirits can be entered into the List of Gods and be used by the Heavenly Court.

Finally, the 365 positions on the List of Gods must be filled up before the catastrophe can be ended.

In silence, Tongtian was the first to ask: "Teacher, what is the Investiture of the Gods?" Upon hearing this, Hongjun took out an object and handed it to Tongtian, saying: "This is the Investiture of the Gods, the Book of Heaven among the three books of heaven, earth and man."

Tongtian took the List of Gods, probed his spiritual consciousness into it, and began to observe the mysteries within.

Other saints were no exception and used their spiritual sense to investigate.

After completing the investigation, their expressions all changed.

Tongtian couldn't help but say, "Teacher, if the True Spirit is included in the List of Gods, then won't it become a puppet of the owner of this list?
Not only that, it seems that the path of cultivation has been cut off?!
How can this be done! "

Hearing Tongtian's words, Hongjun glanced at him calmly and said slowly: "The emergence of the List of Gods was all caused by the disciples of the three religions.

The disciples of the three religions do not respect the Heavenly Court, have no regard for the Emperor of Heaven, and despise the rules of Heaven. This is the reason.

The Investiture of the Gods came into being, this is the result.

The Heavenly Court manages the three realms on behalf of the Heavenly Dao, which is the orthodox doctrine of the ancient times!
If all of you do not cooperate and our disciples ignore the Heavenly Court, then what is the meaning of the Heavenly Court's existence?
There is no need to say more about this matter, it has been determined and cannot be changed!

You should think carefully about whether to sign the List of Gods or take a chance in the catastrophe.

Signing the Conferred God List can prevent the True Spirit from being included in the Conferred God List."

At this point, Hongjun turned his gaze to Ao Yin and continued, "Ao Yin, the reason why I asked you to come here is because your disciples are also involved.

Therefore, you also have a share in this catastrophe!
Do you understand? "

Ao Yin heard this, nodded, and responded: "Junior understands."

Yang Chan was his disciple's grandson, and he also participated in the matter of splitting the mountain to save his mother, so it is not unreasonable to say that he had a part in it.

He has a calm attitude towards this.

When the other saints heard this, they looked at Ao Yin with a mysterious look, as if they were thinking about something.

Hongjun nodded, and finally said: "Let's discuss it carefully!"

After saying this, his figure disappeared in the hall.

After Hongjun left, Tongtian immediately complained to Yuanshi: "Second Brother, why did you bother Haotian for no reason? Now look what happened, he created a Conferred God List!

Now our disciples and followers are in trouble!

Although signing the List of Conferred Gods does not require you to become a true spirit, you will still lose your freedom!
Would those disciples be willing?

If the catastrophe begins and everyone relies on their own abilities, won't our disciples be fighting each other?
There is no need to explain the consequences of the true spirit entering the List of Gods!
Not only will you lose your freedom, but your path will also be cut off! There will be no possibility of advancement from now on!

Second Brother, aren't you causing trouble for us?!"

After hearing what Tongtian said, Yuanshi immediately said with dissatisfaction: "Tongtian, you are going too far!
That Haotian bullied my disciples, how could I not step forward and teach him a lesson?

If you were in my shoes, you wouldn't necessarily be much better than me!
Besides, the List of Gods is just a product of the catastrophe!
The most crucial thing is the catastrophe!
How did the kalpa come about?

It’s because your disciples killed so many people and created the killing calamity in the mortal world!
I would say that this is all your fault!"

Tong Tian heard this and immediately said with an unconvinced look on his face: "How could this killing calamity be caused by my disciples?!
I also said that it was created by the twelve golden immortals under your tutelage!"

When Yuanshi heard this, he sneered and said, "My disciples are only the Twelve Golden Immortals, but you have tens of thousands of immortals under your command!

It goes without saying whose disciple caused this mortal murder, right?"

"you……"

After hearing Yuanshi's words, Tongtian was so angry that he was speechless.

Seeing Tongtian and Yuanshi arguing, Taishang immediately stepped out to smooth things over: "Two junior brothers, things have come to this point, there is no point in arguing meaninglessly, let's discuss how to deal with this Conferred God List!"

At this point, the Supreme General cast his gaze towards Ao Yin, whose expression remained calm, and asked slowly, "What do you think of this, Fellow Daoist Wu Yin?"

Ao Yin heard this, smiled calmly, and said: "There are only two choices.

One is to sign your name on the List of Gods and escape from the catastrophe.

This move is to directly join the heavenly court.

Although there are more constraints, there are also fewer risks.

Secondly, during the catastrophe, everyone relies on their own abilities. If one is unlucky and dies, his true spirit will be included in the List of Gods and become a puppet of the Emperor of Heaven!
The consequence is not only the loss of freedom, but also the severance of one's spiritual path, and one can only survive by relying on the power of incense and gods.

Of course, if one has enough strength and luck, one can safely survive the catastrophe and gain great benefits from it!

As for how to choose, it is up to you. "

After hearing Ao Yin's words, the Six Saints immediately began to ponder.

"Cough cough..."

Suddenly, a cough interrupted the saints' thoughts.

The saints looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the one who was coughing was the Western saint Zhunti.

Zhunti saw that all the saints were looking at him, and he immediately smiled and said, "My fellow Taoists, this disaster should be in the East, and has nothing to do with us in the West, so we will not participate..."

Hearing what Zhunti said, the Three Pure Ones frowned immediately.

Although they were dissatisfied, they could not find any reason to refute.

So, the Supreme nodded calmly and said, "It should be so."

Upon hearing this, broad smiles immediately appeared on Zhunti and Jie Yin’s faces.

Now they can enjoy the show.

Nuwa's expression changed, and she also spoke: "My fellow brothers, I don't have any disciples, so I can't help you with this matter..."

The Three Pure Ones also knew about Nuwa's situation.

The other party did not accept any disciples and stayed at home in the Queen Wa Palace, not caring about worldly affairs.

Therefore, this matter does not involve her.

Tai Shang nodded and said, "This matter has nothing to do with Junior Sister Nuwa."

By this time, three saints on the field had been rescued from the calamity.

Tai Shang thought for a moment, then said calmly, “I only have one disciple, Xuandu, who has been practicing in the Bajing Palace and has never been involved in worldly affairs.

Therefore, he should not fall into this calamity."

After hearing Tai Shang's words, Yuanshi and Tongtian looked a little unhappy, but they didn't say anything.

After all, Xuan Du is Tai Shang's only disciple, so it is naturally impossible for him to be allowed to fall into calamity. He still has to have some social etiquette!
But in this case, four saints have nothing to do with this kalpa.

Yuanshi and Tongtian looked at each other, with unknown meanings flashing in their eyes.

In other words, the 365 positions on the List of Gods can only rely on them?

No, there is also Ao Yin.

Tongtian looked extremely ugly.

This wave is coming for him!
Because no matter whether it is Yuanshi or Ao Yin, they don’t have many disciples, but there are as many as 365 places on the List of Gods!

This big guy must be his disciple!
At this time, Yuanshi spoke: "Junior Brother Tongtian, Fellow Daoist Wuyin and I have only a few disciples, which is just a drop in the bucket for this Conferred God List.

Otherwise, I will take all 365 places!
Anyway, you have tens of thousands of disciples, so this is nothing to you."

Tong Tian heard this and immediately refused with a look of dissatisfaction: "No! This is too unfair to my disciples!

I can only fill it halfway at best.

How about I give the remaining half to you and Fellow Daoist Wuyin?"

Hearing Tongtian's words, Yuanshi immediately shook his head and said, "Even if all the disciples under my sect and those under Taoist Wuyin are added together, there are less than 100 of them, so it will not work if you only contribute half."

"This won't work, and that won't work either. Then why bother signing this Conferred God List?"

Tongtian said in a very angry tone.

As he spoke, he slammed the List of Gods in his hand onto the stone table beside him! (End of this chapter)
