Honghuang: The Golden Crow Emperor, starts by robbing the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 272 Testing Hongjun
When Emperor Xin said this, the Jade Emperor and others held their breath and widened their eyes.

Even Zhuque, Zhulong and others held their breath and looked at Emperor Xin in shock. How dare you say that? Do you think Hongjun can't lift the sword anymore or what?

I'm afraid even the Three Golden Crows wouldn't dare to say such words openly.

However, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that this guy is the Human Emperor and represents the human race. If Hongjun kills this guy, he will be the enemy of the human race, and it will be almost impossible for him to plan for the destiny of the human race.

This guy is fearless.

Hongjun's expression darkened, and he stared at Emperor Xin with sharp eyes. Murderous intent was surging. The atmosphere in Zixiao Palace seemed to be frozen, and the Jade Emperor and others did not dare to breathe.

Hongjun's expression changed several times, but he finally endured it: "Good, what a great human emperor, what a great man who doesn't work for himself. Heaven and earth will punish him."

"Haotian, just do as the Emperor says."

After saying that, he gave the World-Destroying Black Lotus to Emperor Xin.

"Thank you, Daozu." Emperor Xin took it calmly.

"Yes." The Jade Emperor agreed with gritted teeth. Since the Taoist Ancestor had agreed, what could he do?

"You are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Journey to the West again. If you do, you will not get any merit, nor will you, Little White Dragon." The Jade Emperor looked at Emperor Xin with red eyes.

"Don't worry, we keep our word. We will never interfere in the future Journey to the West. We will not interfere even if you ask us to. As for Little White Dragon, his merits will be counted as half of the merits of the human race."

"We also need an eye to monitor you and prevent you from doing anything wrong."

Emperor Xin curled his lips and led his men away.

After Emperor Xin and his companions left, the Jade Emperor sent the others away and complained, "Master, how could you agree to this when Emperor Xin is so greedy?"

"The overall situation is more important. What we are seeking is the Buddhist cause and effect. Merit and virtue are secondary. If you do things well, I will compensate you for your merit and virtue. As for the black lotus of annihilation, I can give it to him, and I can also take it back." Hongjun said calmly.

The reason why he agreed to give the World-Destroying Black Lotus was that he was worried that if too much merit was given to the human race, Fuxi and others would not be willing to contribute.

"Change the plan. Tell the three religions and the demon religion that after the Buddha's Way is revived and bestows merit, I will exchange the Buddha's Way merit that they should get for twice the Heaven's Way merit."

"After you get the Buddha's merit, don't share it yet. Take it to Zixiao Palace to exchange it for Heaven's merit. I haven't promised to share any merit with them."

“With all the Buddhist merits of the Journey to the West, I have enough merits to make Buddhism owe a great cause and effect and rely on the Heavenly Dao.”

"As for the Heavenly Dao merits given to the human race, I will do something and see if they dare to absorb it."

Hongjun said with great foresight.

The Jade Emperor's eyes lit up. He was worthy of being the ancestor of Taoism. He was indeed an old bastard.

The Six Heavenly Saints owed the Heavenly Dao a lot of merits, and also very high interest, and all that interest went into the hands of Daozu. He knew that Daozu had a lot of Heavenly Dao merits in his hands.

From this perspective, the Six Heavenly Saints are like cattle and horses, tools for the Taoist Ancestor to earn merit. He seems to live a much more comfortable life than the Six Heavenly Saints. At least he does not need to earn merit for the Taoist Ancestor. He only needs to take care of the Heavenly Court and provide luck for the Taoist Ancestor.

One reason is that he is not capable enough, and the other is that he is obedient.

Thinking that the human race would not get any good results, the Jade Emperor felt much happier.

After returning to Heaven, the Jade Emperor deliberately sent away Guanyin and the three giants of Buddhism, and told Fuxi and others about the double merits of Heaven. Fuxi and others immediately swallowed their dissatisfaction.

To them, all merits are the same.

Although the human race took away half of their merits, Daozu gave them double the merits, so the merits they finally obtained would not be less than what was agreed upon before. However, Lingshan was unhappy, and the three giants summoned all the Buddhas to discuss.

The final result was that they were helpless. The Taoist Patriarch had stepped forward, and they no longer had the power to make decisions. They could only compromise. Only when Buddhism was revived and they had the protection of Buddhism, could they truly have a say.

The only good thing is that there will be no more humans, dragons, etc. causing trouble, and the Journey to the West can proceed smoothly.

On the other side, in Luoxia Village, Emperor Xin came in person and told Lingxiao what happened in Zixiao Palace. He handed over the Zhutian Qingyun and the World-Destroying Black Lotus to Lingxiao.

"I didn't expect that the old thief Hongjun would hand over the World-Destroying Black Lotus. That old thief must have had bad intentions. I am the one who knows the World-Destroying Black Lotus best. Bring it here quickly so I can inspect it." Luohou said anxiously.

I’m poor and I don’t have any magic weapon now. I don’t feel safe.

Ling Xiao rolled his eyes at Luohou, but still gave him the Black Lotus of Destruction. It would indeed be safer to let Luohou check it.

Given Luohu’s current situation, there is no way Luohu can stop him from taking back the Black Lotus of Destruction whenever he wants.

"How is it? What is Hongjun's current strength?" Ling Xiao looked at the master of the strange way.

"The fourth level of Hedao." The Lord of Weird Dao looked solemn.

"Impossible? Could it be that his aptitude is stronger than Pangu's?" Luohu's voice became sharp.

"No, Hongjun has a lot of treasures in his hands. I can sense the aura of the Wheel of Time and Space. Even if Hongjun hasn't comprehended the law of time, hiding in the Wheel of Time and Space to practice, his time will be accelerated by at least three times. If he practices for 100,000 years, it will actually take at least 300,000 years."

"In addition, Hongjun used the Six Heavenly Saints to obtain a lot of Heavenly Dao Merit. Although Heavenly Dao Merit is not as good as Great Dao Merit, it is still a great blessing for cultivation."

The Master of the Cunning Way shook his head and analyzed.

"Time and Space Wheel."

Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes, he knew this, it was one of the ten great chaos spiritual treasures, the companion magic weapon of the space demon Yang Mei.

Among the three thousand chaos demons, Pangu is recognized as the strongest, followed by the space demon Yang Mei and the time demon Shichen.

Pangu had the blessing of the Jade Disc of Creation, he had the Chaos Clock, and Yang Mei had the Wheel of Time and Space, all of which could accelerate time, so they practiced for longer periods of time than others.

Secondly, Yang Mei and Shi Chen were the first Chaos Demons to be born. They had no moral principles and often took away the companion magic weapons of other Chaos Demons.

"It seems that Hongjun still has a lot of cards in his hand that we don't know about. Where did he get so many Chaos Spirit Treasures?"

Ling Xiao frowned. Hongjun had already reached the fourth level of the Dao. The three brothers, the twelve ancestor witches, and the disasters might not be able to defeat him.

But if they don't snatch the Jade Disc of Creation, the gap between them and Hongjun will only get bigger and bigger, which will be troublesome.

"Where else could it have come from? It must have been stolen or robbed."

"During the battle to create the universe, Hongjun must have been hiding in the dark and looted a lot. He was also the first creature born in the prehistoric world, so he must have been picking up treasures everywhere."

"The battle between Taoism and Demonism later on killed Yin Yang, Five Elements, and Qian Kun, so naturally there were many treasures."

Luo Hou said unhappily.

During the battle between Taoism and Demons, he was simply too arrogant and was tricked by Hongjun. He was used as a gun by Hongjun to kill Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and Qiankun.

"You don't have to worry too much. Taoism and evil are mutually reinforcing and counteracting. I have a way to borrow the power of evil to suppress the Heavenly Dao in a short period of time and weaken and restrain Hongjun. We may not be without a chance of winning." Luohou said.
