People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 112: Only when you reach the realm of Xuan Gong Taiyi can you understand the saints’ intentions!
Temple of Destiny.

"What does this mean?"

Looking at the black vortex that had disappeared below, Yang Xuan was stunned for a long time before gradually coming back to his senses.

Such a change was completely beyond his expectations.

He pardoned Bixiao and named him the Celestial Lord who sends children to the world, and indeed he had thought of using this relationship to get involved in the affairs of the netherworld, and to participate in or even take the lead in establishing the underworld.

However, he had only thought about it and had not put it into action. As a result, Hou Tu took the opportunity of pardoning him and came to him on her own initiative.

Not only did they approve his pardon, but they also gave Bixiao the corresponding authority to the Netherworld, allowing them to directly intervene in the birth of a newborn.

Even though the underworld has not yet been established, the Netherworld's influence on the prehistoric world is smaller than that of the Heavenly Court, and there are limits to what this authority can do.

Bixiao could not have much influence on the reincarnation and birth of the great powers of the ancient times and the younger generations of the clan.

In the eyes of many people, perhaps they would think that such a priesthood is just nice to hear but does not have much real power.

In reality, this is not the case. For the current prehistoric world, Bixiao’s actual power is indeed not that great.

But when the underworld was established, the influence of heaven and underworld on the prehistoric world continued to increase, and they truly played a role in managing the order of the prehistoric world.

Bixiao can legitimately interfere in the affairs of reincarnation and control the birth of all living beings in the prehistoric world. She is the real goddess of fertility. As long as Houtu does not interfere, she is the controller of the last link of reincarnation.

The Three Sky of later generations are also immortal ladies who can sense and follow the world.

But that is only responsible for delivering children, allowing all newborns to wash away filth in the Hunyuan Golden Bowl and then be born again, controlling the last link of reincarnation.

And now, Bixiao is expected to control the last link of reincarnation. There is only a difference between "control" and "dominate", but the actual power is worlds apart.

Let me put it this way, as long as we plan carefully, from now on, unless Houtu speaks, the final link of this reincarnation will be decided by Bixiao.

If she wants someone to be pregnant for ten months, then when ten months come, the newborn will be born on time.

If she wants someone to be pregnant for a hundred thousand or a million years, then the baby will have to wait a hundred thousand or a million years before it is born.

If she accidentally loses focus when a newborn is born and forgets to wash off the dirt on the newborn's body, or her hand accidentally shakes, it is not impossible that the newborn will grow seven arms, three mouths, etc.

Such authority can be said to be extremely terrifying. Anyone who wants to reproduce would not dare to offend Bixiao!
Now that the Hunyuan Golden Bowl is not in Bixiao's hands, with her status, it is obviously impossible for her to attract Houtu's attention, let alone show up in person and grant her the corresponding authority.

The source of all this was because of Yang Xuan. It was he who conferred the title of deity on Bi Xiaoshe, which was why he brought Hou Tu over.

At this time, Yang Xuan finally realized what Hou Tu said when he was in Yunmeng Dragon Palace -

[You are destined to be with the underworld! ]

Maybe it was not meant for Youlian, but for Yang Xuan!

"It's strange. I have never entered the netherworld. I have only used the Yibao Divine Art and activated the power of the earth three times. How did that lady notice me?"

Yang Xuan touched his chin and frowned slightly. He couldn't figure out why he had attracted Hou Tu's attention.

It can only be said that the saint's Taoism is so profound that it is simply beyond the reach of a golden immortal like him to guess.

Perhaps something that seems unimportant in his eyes can be seen as a glimpse of the future in the eyes of a saint.

It was precisely because of some of his actions that Houtu saw a future that was beneficial to the underworld, so she paid attention to him.

Although the future is not fixed but full of variables, for saints, as long as a certain future is possible, with their cultivation, they will have a way to make something develop in the direction of that future.

What Hou Tu is doing today may be to correct the timeline so that that future can come true.

"I don't know what the future that lady saw, the construction of the underworld, or something else..."

Yang Xuan thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't be sure what Hou Tu was thinking, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

After this incident, it is certain that in the future when Yang Xuan wants to intervene in the affairs of the underworld and start building the underworld, there will be fewer obstacles.

However, Yang Xuan has no plans to go to the underworld for the time being.

After the end of the wizard-lich calamity, the remaining wizards were divided into three parts. One part stayed in Buzhou Mountain, of which only a small half remained, and the other part migrated to the far north.

The last and largest part enters the underworld, receives the protection of Hou Tu, maintains the operation of the underworld, and handles matters of the six realms of reincarnation.

If you want to establish the underworld in the netherworld, you can't avoid these members of the witch clan.

The Wu Clan is famous for its warlike nature, even if they can recruit two powerful fighters, Bixiao and Jiu Tian Xuan Nu.

But if Yang Xuan's own strength is not enough, it would be difficult to convince these Wu clan members and make them cooperate, and the construction of the underworld would not be able to go smoothly.

Besides, there are still many things to be done in Heaven, and Jiuzhou also needs another trip.

Even if we want to enter the netherworld and establish the underworld, we have to wait until these things are done and the heaven can function normally.

By that time, even if Yang Xuan is not yet a Daluo Jinxian, he should be able to fight against Daluo. After all, his Taiyi path is not simple!
Thinking of this, Yang Xuan no longer wasted time. He pulled Bixiao aside and let her continue to stare blankly.

Then he waved to Shan Jun and others and began to pardon them.

However, this time, Yang Xuan no longer used the authority of the Great Celestial Lord to make his voice resound throughout the Heavenly Palace as he did in the past.

Firstly, he already has enough power in heaven, so it would be better for him to keep a low profile in the future.

Secondly, although Shan Jun and others are also Golden Immortals, their status cannot be compared with Bixiao at all, and they are all criminals. Not to mention the third rank, even the fourth rank is enough to make them difficult.

No one really thinks that Yang Xuan recruited them into the Heavenly Palace in order to repay evil with kindness, right?

From the beginning to the end, Yang Xuan just wanted to drag them to the Heavenly Palace to work as coolies and keep the Heavenly Palace running.

Yang Xuan did not even intend to let go of their own clansmen, and was ready to pull them up to the sky at any time.

If their future performance is good enough to atone for the mistakes they made, Yang Xuan will consider giving them a promotion and a raise to reduce their work pressure.

Therefore, Yang Xuan only conferred the title of fifth-rank god on Shan Jun and others.

Among them, Shanjun is a mountain god who is affiliated with the Mountain Temple and is responsible for managing the land veins around Wuyi Mountain.

Lei Yu is a thunder god who belongs to the Thunder Department of Heaven and is responsible for moving clouds and rain around Wuyi Mountain.

With these two Daluo Jinxian watching over him, Yang Xuan could feel more at ease, in case some creature with great fortune really entered Wuyi Mountain and took away the Wudao Tea Tree.

Dayu once said that Yang Xuan could choose a place in Kyushu as his own Taoist temple.

Not only will it not be suppressed by the Nine Cauldrons Formation, but it can also be blessed by the formation, changing the surrounding ground veins, making the spiritual energy in the dojo more intense. Wuyi Mountain was once a holy land for casual cultivators, with rich spiritual energy and many opportunities. Yang Xuan's current plan is to use it as a dojo on earth.

The reason for arranging Shanjun and Leishen here, besides letting them perform their divine duties and maintain the operation of Heaven, is also to let them guard Wuyi Mountain for him and prevent other creatures from entering.

Since this is my territory, how can I let others come and go as they please?
Yang Xuan has never been a selfless person. He originally planned to send some immortals from heaven to help manage Wuyi Mountain after he ascended to heaven.

Now that the Black Lotus incident has happened, it would naturally be better to have two Daluo Golden Immortals watching. Even if both of them are seriously injured, they are still more useful than Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Cui Liu is proficient in the way of wood and is arranged by Yang Xuan to work in the spiritual plant garden, becoming an agricultural god responsible for planting spiritual plants.

Because Hu Zhang had no special talents, he was assigned to the Ministry of War by Yang Xuan and became a heavenly general, responsible for carrying out the task of killing evil spirits in the lower world.

With a Daluo Jinxian in charge, even if Hu Zhang is still seriously injured, he can still add a lot of security to the Heavenly Court’s military department.

Both are Golden Immortals, both are guilty, Xuan Niu and Wu Hao are both fourth-grade gods and have considerable power.

However, Shan Jun and others are only fifth-rank gods and have no power. Logically, they should feel dissatisfied.

This is another reason why Yang Xuan did not announce it to the Heavenly Court. He was worried that the immortals and gods would think that he was abusing his power and making things difficult for Shan Jun and others.

However, what Yang Xuan did not expect was that after hearing about his pardon, Shan Jun and the others not only did not show any dissatisfaction, but instead showed joy on their faces, bowed to him, and said:

"Thank you, Great Lord. I will do my duty faithfully and will not slack off in the slightest. From now on, if you need anything, we will do our best to help you and will never refuse!!!"

In the eyes of Shan Jun and others, if there was no Yang Xuan, not only would they die, but their clansmen and disciples would also be implicated.

Even if they are Golden Immortals and can return to the primitive world in the future, their spiritual faith will be damaged and it will be difficult for them to make any progress in their cultivation.

As for the question of the level of the god's position, it was far beyond their expectations.

Originally they just thought that since he went to heaven with a guilty body and became a minor god in heaven, then he must be at most a sixth or seventh rank god.

Who could have imagined that Yang Xuan would actually pardon them and confer them the title of fifth-rank gods, and the tasks he assigned to them were all things they were good at.

Shanjun's true form is an ancient sacred mountain. To sort out the veins of Wuyi Mountain is as easy as eating and drinking, isn't it?

Lei Yu is responsible for controlling the clouds and rain, Cui Lu is responsible for planting spiritual roots, and Hu Zhang is responsible for killing evil spirits in the lower world. It is the same as well. These are all things they are good at.

More importantly, what they do can also gain merit in heaven, but the share will be smaller.

They saw with their own eyes that Yang Xuan only needed to establish the Heavenly Court Merit System and take out the Jade Book of Rules, and then the merits of Heavenly Dao descended and recognized what he had done.

The Heavenly Dao has already acknowledged it, so it is conceivable that this Heavenly Court merit system will become the most important and fundamental rule of Heavenly Court.

From the ninth-rank immortal servant to the first-rank emperor, everyone needs to work according to the Heavenly Court's merit system.

In other words, the Heavenly Merits will be the currency of Heaven in the future. Whether it is exchanging for elixirs, renting spiritual treasures, or purchasing caves, the Heavenly Merits will be needed.

Being able to obtain merits from the Heavenly Court means that Yang Xuan recognizes that they are a member of the Heavenly Court, and there is hope that they will redeem their sins in the future.

Although he won't be able to escape from heaven, but he will definitely have no problem regaining his freedom and continuing to practice and attain enlightenment.

Now, not only do they not have to worry about death, but their disciples and younger generations in the clan also have no worries about their lives and they even have hopes for the future. How can they not be grateful?

"I don't know how to repay the great kindness of the Heavenly Venerable. This damned Black Lotus really deserves to die. Who gave him the courage to plot against the Great Heavenly Venerable?!!"

Shan Jun and the others looked grateful, but they were cursing Hei Lian in their hearts. If they were not seriously injured, they would have volunteered to go and find trouble with Hei Lian.

Yang Xuan: ...

No, you are crazy, right? I sold you out, why are you still so grateful?
To take a step back, even if you were recruited by the Heavenly Court, I still made things difficult for you, making you a minor god with little real power, and also withholding your wages. No matter how you look at it, you look like a black-hearted capitalist. What do you mean by this?
When we were in that nameless valley before, you didn't look so simple...

"Oh, never mind, let it be what it is!"

Yang Xuan looked helpless. He really couldn't understand what was going on in these people's minds to make them behave like this.

Afterwards, Yang Xuan called Lai Sheng Sanqi and handed him the Jade Book of Rules.

Let him take the Jade Book of Rules to the Equipment Refining Workshop for copying, make public the rules for obtaining Heavenly Merits, as well as the rental prices of some spiritual treasures and the exchange prices of spiritual pills, and officially implement the Heavenly Merits System!
After explaining the matter and instructing Bixiao to perform his duties as a priest conscientiously and not to use his position to cause trouble, Yang Xuan entered the main hall of Siming Temple and began to deduce his skills in seclusion.

Nowadays, the number of gods and immortals in the Siming Temple is increasing, and more and more gods and immortals respond to the believers' prayers, so there is no need to leave everything to the incense and golden statues.

Therefore, Yang Xuan asked the Golden Statue to put aside his priestly duties for the time being and go into seclusion with him.

At the beginning, Yang Xuan's body was fully focused on comprehending the great Dao and improving his Taoism. During this period, he continued to refine the spiritual wine in the Xuanling Immortal Gourd to improve his cultivation.

In the end, it only took more than two thousand years for Yang Xuan's cultivation to be elevated to the perfection of the Golden Immortal. With a solid foundation, he could condense the five energies in his chest at any time and break through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Over the years, the Golden Body of Incense has improved its perception by constantly consuming the merits of humanity. It has long since comprehended the Zixiao Qi Training Technique and understood the method of refining the five qi.

The reason why Haotian dared to say that the Zixiao Qi Refining Technique's method of refining the five qi was so unmatched in the prehistoric world.

The most important reason is that Zixiao Qi Training Technique is not like other exercises that only refine the five elements of spiritual objects, or refine other innate spiritual objects into the five internal organs in the distribution method of the five elements.

The Zixiao Qi Training Technique is to first refine the innate five elements of spiritual objects into the five internal organs, so that the five internal organs correspond to the five elements, achieving the state of five elements circulation and mutual generation, unity of man and nature, and perfection.

On this basis, special spiritual objects are refined again and enter into the five internal organs corresponding to the five elements, generating five energies in the chest and establishing the foundation for attaining enlightenment.

In other words, Zixiao Qi Training Technique divides the condensed five energies in the chest into two parts.

The first part is to use the innate five elements' spiritual energy to transform the five internal organs, which is the mainstream Taiyi practice method in the ancient times.

But in Zixiao Qi Training Technique, it is only used to transform the five internal organs so that they can accommodate other spiritual objects and cultivate more mysterious five qi in the chest.

This is also the second part of Zixiao Qi Training Technique!
Even if this step fails, the five internal organs have already been refined into the corresponding innate five elements of spiritual energy, although injuries are inevitable.

But your foundation will not be damaged, so you can continue to try, or you can settle for the next best thing and use the innate five elements of spiritual energy to cultivate the five energies in your chest and start practicing Taiyi.

There would be no problem even if this technique was used directly, and Yang Xuan had an 80% chance of success.

But he did not rush for success. Instead, he consumed a large amount of merit. He deduced his main body and golden body for more than 50,000 years. Finally, he used the Five Qi Condensation Method of Zixiao Qi Training Jue to deduce the Taiyi Realm practice method of the Five Virtues Profound Art!

Then he spent another five hundred years checking repeatedly, and only after making sure that there was nothing missing did he stop deducing and open his eyes again.

"A conservative estimate is 98%. That's enough!"

Yang Xuan smiled confidently, took out the Xiantian Renshui Peach given by the Queen Mother, and began to practice the Five Virtues Profound Art to refine it into his body.
