Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Chapter 157 Emperor Yu on Conferring the Gods

Most of the disciples of Jiejiao are different species and are cruel by nature. Xia Qi ruined their chances, so some of them are bound to hate the human race as well, and kill people to vent their anger, implicating many innocent people.

Emperor Yu said this to take all the consequences. Xia Qi was wrong, and the disciples of Jiejiao could cause trouble for him and his descendants, and he deserved it.

But if innocent people are implicated as a result, this would be too much. It is called revenge, but in fact it is just doing whatever it wants under the banner of revenge, and it has long lost its original intention.

Therefore, Emperor Yu would never tolerate such behavior. Although he died, the Nine Cauldrons were still there. Under the Quasi-Sage, facing the suppression of the Nine Cauldrons, few people survived.

"Emperor Yu is joking. How could we, as pure cultivators, hurt others for no reason?"

Sensing the murderous intent in Emperor Yu's tone, the Jiejiao disciples present were frightened and quickly replied.

They were well-connected and stayed on Jin'ao Island all year round, so they rarely killed people, let alone vented their anger on innocent people.

But just because they didn't do it doesn't mean that other Jiejiao disciples didn't do it. As far as they know, many Jiejiao disciples secretly collected human beings to refine magic weapons, and even asked humans for living people as sacrifices.

The Shang Dynasty believed in the four gods and ghosts and often sacrificed living people. Who are the four gods and ghosts here? Except for a few gods of heaven and earth, most of the others refer to the disciples of Jiejiao.

The price paid for offering sacrifices to the four gods and ghosts for the Shang Dynasty was so high that even the Shang Emperor himself could hardly bear it. This shows how greedy these Jiejiao disciples were.

Although people didn't say it, they all understood in their hearts that Emperor Yu's words were obviously directed at those disciples of the Jiejiao who used the names of the four gods and ghosts to enjoy offerings from the Shang Dynasty.

It would have been fine if he didn't know this before, but now that he knows it, with Emperor Yu's character, how could he pretend not to see it?

"Now that I have revived, I wanted to see the mountains and rivers of the Nine Provinces again, but I didn't expect the catastrophe to come again. Looking around, the catastrophe energy is overwhelming and fills the sky and the earth. It is really worrying."

Emperor Yu did not respond to the crowd, but instead spoke his mind. His reaction gave the Jiejiao disciples a bad feeling.

"The longer the catastrophe lasts, the greater the harm to the heaven and earth and to all living beings. To prevent the witch-lich catastrophe and the destruction of heaven and earth from happening again, the saints should cut the Gordian knot and eliminate the catastrophe as soon as possible."

Emperor Yu said this with a worried look on his face. He was concerned about the heaven, earth and all living things, and he was also urging the saints to act as soon as possible to prevent the catastrophe from getting worse and worse and causing the same old story of the witches and liches to happen again.

The strength of the disciples of the three religions is not as good as that of the two races of wizards and liches, but the strength of the leaders of the three religions is far beyond the top leaders of the two races.

After all, those were three saints and three innate treasures, which even the Lich and the Wizard races combined could not put together.

Emperor Yu's words involved the saints, and none of the Jiejiao disciples present dared to answer, and they all fell into silence. At the same time, the bad premonition in their hearts became stronger and stronger.

Fortunately, although Emperor Yu was looking at them, his words were obviously not directed to them, but to the Three Pure Ones.

Tongtian Sect Master seemed to be aware of something and realized that Emperor Yu's words were directed at his Sect, and his expression suddenly became displeased.

He wanted to scold him, but when he thought about what his disciple had done, he felt he didn't have the confidence. His face became even gloomier and he fell into deep silence.

Yuanshi Tianzun was unusually excited, knowing that this was an opportunity, and wanted to agree. However, when he thought about how his own disciples had just taken action against the descendants of Queen Yu, he spoke out of turn for a moment.

These disciples are really more disappointing than the other!

Yuanshi Tianzun was so angry that he wanted to call his disciples over and give them a severe scolding.

Finally, the Great Purity Saint asked, "What do you think, Emperor Yu? Please share your thoughts. If they make sense, we will follow them."

The Human Emperor governs all spirits on behalf of humanity and has a high status, as respected as a saint. Therefore, even a saint has to be polite when facing the Human Emperor.

"This calamity is the Conferred God Killing Calamity, which is intended to select cultivators from the immortal way to be canonized as gods to fill the heavenly court and maintain the order of the three realms."

"In other words, as long as the Investiture of the Gods is filled up, the calamity can be ended. For the sake of heaven and earth and all living things, the saints should not hesitate but should make a decision early and fill up the Investiture of the Gods as soon as possible to eliminate the calamity." Emperor Yu replied, urging the saints to fill up the Investiture of the Gods as soon as possible to keep it empty and prolong the calamity.

"The disciples of the three religions are all people with great fortune. It is really difficult for us to make a decision about who will be included in the list. We can only let them decide based on their own abilities."

Saint Taiqing hesitated for a moment and then replied.

What Emperor Yu said made sense, but it was nonsense. Daozu had said the same thing many times in Zixiao Palace. But even so, the Three Pure Ones still did not fill the Conferred God List.

If even the Taoist Ancestor couldn’t do it, how could Emperor Yu do it?
"Why is this so difficult? Since you can't choose, then it's all voluntary."

"I have observed that there are many immortals who regard themselves as gods in the world. Since they like to be gods so much, why don't the saints help them and send them all to the list to fulfill their wish of becoming gods?"

Emperor Yu spoke these frightening words in a calm tone.

coming! coming!
Emperor Yu’s revenge is here!

The Jiejiao disciples present did not show any change on their faces, but they were constantly exclaiming in their hearts. They knew that Emperor Yu's words were clearly directed at the Jiejiao disciples.

What is the meaning of "between heaven and earth"? The Shang Dynasty is also between heaven and earth.

The immortals who regard themselves as gods, aren’t they referring to those disciples of the Jiejiao who were worshipped by the Shang Dynasty under the names of the four gods and ghosts?

Emperor Yu meant to send them all to the Conferred God List. Since they like to be gods, then let them do it. There is nothing wrong with this statement.

These disciples of Jiejiao have truly tied themselves up in knots. Even if they are put on the List of Gods by Emperor Yu, they should not resent Emperor Yu, but should thank him instead.

After all, Emperor Yu was not harming them, but helping them to achieve their goals and satisfying their wishes. What else could they be dissatisfied with?
"This……"

Saint Taiqing was stumped by Emperor Yu's question and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "Wow!" The problem that had troubled the three religions for years was solved so easily by Emperor Yu.

On Jin'ao Island, Patriarch Tongtian's face changed drastically. He wanted to stop it, but he couldn't say a word.

How can he stop it?

Just as Emperor Yu said, this was the choice of the disciples of Jiejiao themselves. What reason did he have to stop them? No one forced them to become gods. It was their own choice. Who can he blame?

This is cause and effect, retribution!
How can it be justified that a false god, having gained so many benefits and devoured so many lives, does not become a true god and maintain order in the three realms from then on?

It is right for them to become gods, as this allows them to atone for their past mistakes.

"Okay!"

In Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun was overjoyed.

Now, with Emperor Yu's words, it is a foregone conclusion that the disciples of Jiejiao will be on the list. Even if Tongtian Patriarch is unwilling, he is powerless to stop it.

"For those who want to become gods, their wishes should be fulfilled and they should become gods. And for those who commit murder, they should also be allowed to become gods."

"If they don't die, how can we settle the cause and effect and eliminate the calamity? Therefore, those who commit the killing calamity must also be listed. Only in this way can the killing calamity be ended."

Without waiting for Saint Taiqing to agree, Emperor Yu continued.

As he finished speaking, Yuanshi Tianzun, who was laughing before, immediately stopped laughing. On the contrary, Tongtian Jiaozhu, whose face was originally very ugly, couldn't help but smile.
