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

"Humanity reigns supreme, I am Fuxi..."

The voices of the three human emperors echoed throughout the primordial world.

The Three Sovereigns are the only three Quasi-Saints in the primordial world. They are the strongest beings below the Saints and led the rise of the human race, laying the main foundation for the human race to become the protagonist of heaven and earth.

In this process, the authority of humanity gradually grew stronger, making great contributions to the prehistoric world, and even more so to humanity itself.

Now that they want to borrow money through merit-based loans, how could humanity possibly object?

The moment they finished speaking, the power of humanity manifested, and under the influence of the power of commerce, it transformed into three contracts, which landed before the three emperors of the human race.

Without any hesitation, the three human emperors immediately left their true spirit imprints on the three contracts.

The next moment, countless acts of human merit appeared in the air and entered the bodies of the Three Sovereigns.

The aura emanating from the three emperors increased rapidly at a visible speed.

In the blink of an eye, their auras broke through the limit of Quasi-Saint and reached the level of Hunyuan Wuji Da Luo Jinxian.

This was not because they achieved a breakthrough in cultivation and attained the Primordial Chaos realm, but because, like Daoist Styx, they obtained the status of a Saint through the blessing of immeasurable merit, thus gaining the Primordial Chaos cultivation level ahead of schedule.

They already possessed the cultivation of a Quasi-Saint, making them the three people in the primordial world closest to the Primordial Chaos realm. Now, having attained the Saintly status, they have gained Primordial Chaos cultivation ahead of schedule.
With their inherent talent and comprehension, taking this crucial step and achieving the status of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal is basically only a matter of time!
Throughout the myriad realms of the primordial world, countless humans witnessed this scene, their faces filled with fervor, and they shouted with joy.

"Congratulations to His Majesty Fuxi on attaining the venerable position of a sage of humanity!"

"Congratulations to His Majesty Shennong on attaining the venerable position of a sage of humanity!"

"Congratulations to Your Majesty Xuanyuan on attaining the venerable position of a Sage of Humanity!"

With Nuwa's return to her position and the Three Sovereigns attaining enlightenment, the human race's fortune has significantly improved. Many people have gained some insight and feel that their cultivation, which has stagnated for many years, is showing signs of further improvement.

But that's not all!

The three human emperors' attainment of sainthood through loans acted as a fuse, igniting a series of actions by numerous powerful beings throughout the primordial world.

After the three human emperors attained sainthood, mist suddenly rose from the sky above the Nine Provinces.

These mists are sacred and extraordinary, capable of enlightening the minds of humankind; they are none other than the righteous spirit of Confucianism!
Amidst this overwhelming aura of righteousness, Confucius's figure materialized, his face solemn as he gazed at the sky and spoke in a deep voice:
"Humanity is supreme. Confucius of the human race wishes to use his merits to attain the status of a sage of humanity. He hopes that humanity will grant his request!"

Confucius established Confucianism, which made a great contribution to the human race and enhanced the influence of humanity. His righteous spirit also helps cultivators to sever their physical bodies, thus bringing them great merit.

Now that he wants to borrow from the merit loan, humanity has no reason to object.

The moment Confucius finished speaking, humanity responded, and a contract appeared before him.

Having decided to proclaim humanity and borrow merit, Confucius would not hesitate any longer and immediately left his spiritual mark.

Moments later, humanity bestowed upon them a massive amount of merit once more, and the primordial world gained another sage.

At the moment Confucius attained enlightenment and became a sage, the sound of students reciting their lessons resounded throughout the primordial world:
Confucius said: "As heaven's movement is ever vigorous, so should a gentleman constantly strive for self-improvement."

Confucius said: ..."

The righteous energy that permeated the myriad realms of the primordial world became increasingly solid, and the fortune of Confucianism soared, making it no less powerful than some other major religions.

With Nuwa's return to her rightful place and the Three Sovereigns and Confucius successively attaining sainthood, today is an unprecedentedly important day for the countless human races of all the heavens and myriad realms.

With five sages at their side, from then on, no one could shake the human race's position as the protagonist of the world!

Above the Nine Provinces, the Three Sovereigns and Confucius smiled at each other, both happy for the greater prosperity of the human race and moved by their attainment of sainthood.

Everyone wants to become a saint, but in the past, it was just a thought; no one dared to say that they could definitely become a saint.

Even though the Three Sovereigns were among the few people in the primordial world closest to the Primordial Chaos realm, they wouldn't dare make such a guarantee.

But now that there is the Merit Loan, as long as you contribute to the primordial world and have the courage to make a great vow, you may be able to achieve sainthood through merit.

Although there is only hope and the number of sainthoods is limited, it is already much better than the almost hopeless situation of the past.

Overwhelmed with emotion, they were all deeply grateful to Yang Xuan, bowed in the direction of the Temple of Fate, and recited:

"The sage is merciful!"

If Yang Xuan hadn't offered the merit loan, how would they have had the opportunity to become saints?
Even though they are now saints, they still hold Yang Xuan in high esteem.

Heavenly Court, Temple of the God of Fate.

Yang Xuan felt a sense of unease and couldn't help but smile, returning the greeting to the four people from afar.

Just now, he felt a significant increase in the human race's fortune and the Confucian fortune within him, which was clearly the work of the Three Sovereigns of the Human Race and Confucius.

Even if one's cultivation has reached the Hunyuan realm, the boost from luck is already quite limited.

However, Yang Xuan's business practices are too unique, closely related to the prehistoric world, and the benefits of luck to him are still enormous.

This increase in fortune, imperceptibly, elevated his authority in the business world and strengthened his power.

Using the same Yi Bao Divine Technique for transactions results in a higher success rate. Even if the improvement is small, it will be amplified infinitely for Hunyuan.

In particular, Yang Xuan's business acumen and the Divine Art of Treasure Exchange are both special mechanisms that are inherently difficult to defend against. The changes brought about by this improvement will be amplified even further.

"I didn't expect there would be such a benefit..."

Yang Xuan sighed inwardly. He realized that he did have some selfish motives in proposing the merit loan, hoping to elevate Shang Dao's status and allow him to go further in the Hunyuan Realm.

Ultimately, however, he was still thinking of the Primordial World and wanted to improve its overall strength through this.

Now that he has achieved the benefits he desired, with Styx, the Three Sovereigns, and Confucius all becoming saints through loans, Shangdao's status has been significantly elevated, and his cultivation has also increased considerably.

Unexpectedly, after the Three Sovereigns and Confucius attained enlightenment, they bestowed even more fortune upon him, further enhancing his strength.

"Ok?"

Just then, Yang Xuan sensed something again, turned to look at the Netherworld, and shook his head with a smile.

Just now, the Asura clan's fortune on his body suddenly surged by a large margin.

It's obvious without even thinking that this was the work of the Styx.

He's absolutely adept at fighting magic, but he's not exactly a master at delicate tasks.

It seems that he saw what the Three Sovereigns and Confucius had done, and that's when he remembered that he could use the fortune of the Asura race to repay the opportunity given to him by Yang Xuan. That's why he hurriedly separated a large amount of fortune and placed it on Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan readily accepted this, a smile appearing on his face.

It's conceivable that in the future, whenever someone borrows merit, regardless of whether they attain sainthood or not, Yang Xuan will receive a share of that fortune. It's like giving a gift; everyone else has given one, so how can you not give one?
I don't need this gift, but if you don't give it, then it's your fault!

If this continues, Yang Xuan will reap unimaginable benefits.

Om-!
At this moment, a mysterious Daoist aura emanated from the Lingxiao Palace, revealing that Haotian and the Queen Mother were drawing upon the power of the Heavenly Dao.

Long before Nuwa returned to her position and became the spokesperson for humanity, the two of them planned to follow the example of the Styx River and proclaim the Way of Heaven.

However, the unexpected occurrence of Nuwa forced them to abandon their original plan.

Now that Nuwa has returned to her rightful place, and the Three Sovereigns and Confucius have already attained sainthood through merit, there's no reason for them to delay any longer.

"Heaven is above, and I am the Supreme Heaven. I now wish to borrow the merits of Heaven to attain the status of a Heavenly Saint!"

"Heaven's will is above, I am..."

As Haotian and the Queen Mother finished speaking, the Heavenly Dao immediately responded, its power surging forth and, under the influence of the power of the Business Dao, transforming into two contracts that appeared before them.

Like the Three Sovereigns, Confucius, and others, after they left their spiritual imprints and signed contracts, immeasurable merits surged from the void and fell upon the two of them.

In just a short while, their auras rose to the level of Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, and they obtained the status of Saint!

At this moment, the entire Heavenly Court trembled violently, filled with auspicious omens, and numerous immortals and gods respectfully bowed and shouted:

"Your Majesty the Jade Emperor, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, your merits have been fulfilled, and you have attained sainthood!"

Haotian and the Queen Mother exchanged a glance, both seeing the joy and emotion in each other's eyes.

When the Dao Ancestor first appointed them as the masters of this world, he made it clear that this was a great opportunity and a great fortune, and that if they could seize it, they would benefit from it for life.

But after they arrived in the Heavenly Court, their lives were incredibly miserable, and they were ridiculed by all living beings in the prehistoric world as the shame of quasi-saints.

It wasn't until Yang Xuan appeared that their situation changed, and they gradually regained their freedom. Later, their cultivation advanced even further, and they successively severed the evil corpse and the self-grasping corpse, becoming quasi-saints of the three corpses.

They originally thought that the great opportunity and great fortune that the Taoist Ancestor spoke of referred to this, but they never expected that all the things in the past would allow them to successfully borrow merit today and become saints!
Of course, they also had another thought in their minds, which was that the great opportunity and great fortune that the Dao Ancestor had originally mentioned was indeed to achieve the Three Corpses Quasi-Saint status.

As for their attainment of sainthood today, even the Dao Ancestor probably didn't foresee that it was because of Yang Xuan's appearance that they had the opportunity to attain sainthood today.

"Looking back, it seems like only yesterday that Fellow Daoist Yang arrived in the Heavenly Court..."

Haotian sighed inwardly. When he first met Yang Xuan, he was a Quasi-Saint, while Yang Xuan was just a minor Xuan Immortal.

Yang Xuan has now become a saint, and his cultivation has reached the Hunyuan level. The reason why the two of them were able to attain sainthood is also because of Yang Xuan.

Without Yang Xuan, even if immortals from the Xuanmen sect ascended to heaven after the Investiture of the Gods, and they were able to escape their predicament, they probably wouldn't have much real power.

After all, the Investiture of the Gods couldn't possibly be in their hands.

After some reflection, Haotian and the Queen Mother bowed towards the direction of the Temple of Fate to express their gratitude to Yang Xuan.

And like the Three Sovereigns and Confucius, a portion of the Heavenly Court's fortune was bestowed upon Yang Xuan.

However, the amount of fortune they can share is not much, only a small portion.

It's not that they're stingy or greedy for such a small amount of Heavenly Fortune; it's just that this is all the Fortune they can offer...

To be honest, the Heavenly Court today was perfected by Yang Xuan himself.

Yang Xuan's celestial fortune has long surpassed that of Haotian and the Queen Mother, the two nominal rulers of the Heavenly Court.

The two of them didn't have much luck to begin with, and what they've shared now is already their limit.

Yang Xuan was naturally not going to be dissatisfied with this; even a small mosquito is still meat, and more importantly, this was just the beginning!
Originally, there were only three vacant positions for the Heavenly Saints. After Nuwa separated from the Heavenly Dao, there were only four. Now that Haotian and the Queen Mother have attained sainthood, there are only two vacant positions left.

There are five remaining positions for the Human Way Saints, while there are eight remaining positions for the Earth Way Saints.

But only a short time has passed since the announcement of the merit-based loan program, and already seven saintly positions have been claimed.

This undoubtedly made the many powerful beings in the prehistoric world feel a greater sense of urgency, fearing that if they were to lag behind even a step, they would lose their place.

However, they did not act rashly. Styx, the Three Sovereigns, and others all became saints by directly borrowing money, and they were even less certain whether borrowing in batches would work.

They had no idea what grand ambitions the Styx and the others had made, or what contracts they had signed with the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man. If they rashly borrowed merit, they might lose the initiative.

To be on the safe side, many powerful beings from the prehistoric world brought generous gifts to the dojos of Styx, the Three Sovereigns, and others, hoping to inquire about some details.

Bixiao, Shieryue, and the others were in the same situation, but it was clear that the grand gifts they had prepared would not have a chance to be given away.

Whether it's the River Styx, the Three Sovereigns, or even Haotian and the Queen Mother, they all owe Yang Xuan something...

No, that's not right! It's not just one. Putting aside the matter of the merit loan, they also owe Yang Xuan a lot of favors. How could they possibly accept such generous gifts from Bixiao, December, and the others?

Not only would they not accept it, but they also provided far more detailed information than anyone else.

The Styx River, in particular, was the most pragmatic. It withstood a bolt of heavenly lightning and told Bixiao the original text of the contract.

Unbeknownst to him, Yang Xuan's influence in the prehistoric world had already enabled those around him to receive equal treatment from the sages!

After these powerful beings left the Daoist temples of the Three Sovereigns and others and learned more details, people often proclaimed that they wished to borrow the power of Heaven, Earth, and Man to become saints.

However, not everyone can make such a great contribution to the world as the Three Sovereigns and Styx.

Therefore, quite a few people fail.
Regardless of whether he succeeds or fails, Yang Xuan will always gain something. As long as someone successfully borrows merit, whether or not they get what they want, they will solemnly bow to Yang Xuan and share a portion of their fortune with him.

Yang Xuan's current fortune is immense; if released, it would be enough to form a boundless canopy that covers the entire sky.

It can be said that he embodies the fortune of billions of living beings in the primordial world. Even if Yang Xuan did not hold a saintly position, no saint would dare to touch him!
It wasn't until 50,000 years later that all the remaining positions of saints were finally assigned.

The last two positions of Heavenly Saints are held by the Golden Spirit Mother of the Jie Sect and the Antarctic Immortal of the Chan Sect.

This concerns the reputation of Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu. Even if it means going through some back channels, these two positions must be arranged.

The remaining five holy positions in the human realm are Xuandu of the Human Sect, Tathagata of the West, Zhao Gongming of the Jie Sect, Zulong of the Dragon Clan, and Yuanfeng of the Phoenix Clan.

The remaining eight holy positions in the Underworld are: Bixiao of the Jie Sect, Yunxiao of the Jie Sect, the Taiyin Star Lord of the Twelve Months, Zhenyuanzi, the Earth Immortal Lord, Dizang of the Underworld, Guangchengzi of the Chan Sect, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady of the Heavenly Court, and Yu the Great of the Human Race.

In addition, Shen Gongbao, Jiang Ziya, Xing Tian, ​​Shi Ji and others, although they failed to become saints because their cultivation was slightly inferior, still made further progress and became quasi-saints, which is equivalent to the cultivation of half-step Hunyuan.

If one cultivates diligently in the future, there is a chance to advance further and achieve the Great Golden Immortal of Hunyuan, which would be a great opportunity.

The only question now is whether there will be such a future...
