Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 157 Long Ji's Invitation

Deng Chanyu didn't think it was a big deal. Nuwa actually thought so too. Those Daluo Jinxians need to worry about "finding a job" in the future. You, a primary school student, need to worry about that too? Just memorize the multiplication tables first!
After understanding Nuwa's intention, she temporarily put aside her practice of the Eight-Nine Profound Art, the Five-Colored Divine Light, and the Phoenix Clan's third stage of the Fiery Sun Sky Fire, and focused on improving the strength of her three souls and seven spirits to reach the realm of [Heavenly Immortal].

According to the Taoist teachings, this stage is to cultivate the three souls and refine the seven spirits.

Ordinary immortals still need to find various flames to temper their souls, but the phoenix has its own flames, so burning the sky and boiling the sea is no problem. If I get angry, I can even burn myself. Now it’s just burning a soul, which is a small matter.

Deng Chanyu's true self is focused on inner cultivation.

The Phoenix clone continued to cultivate its body and further improve its essence, energy and spirit. There was no need to worry about the "essence" of the body. Now the physical strength of the Phoenix was comparable to that of a celestial being, and its spiritual awareness as a "god" was also fully up to standard. What it still lacked was "qi", or magic power, and the spiritual materials it found were mainly used to improve magic power.

Not long after Deng Chanyu returned to Nanjun, Meng Po sent a message that Daji would be going to the underworld for a while.

Classmate Daji is going to the underworld to serve as the acting King of Hell!

This is what Meng Po asked for. There is no way around it. There is not much room for refusal, so I have to go.

The ancestor of the Styx fled with serious injuries. Without this quasi-saint to balance the forces of all parties, the underworld is now in chaos.

Originally, it was just a battle between soldiers and generals, but as the news of Mara seizing the twelfth-grade karma fire lotus spread, those Xuanmen immortals could no longer sit still.

If there is a saint behind you who obtains the Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Lotus, everyone’s attitude will definitely be “Ah, yes, yes, yes”. If there is a quasi-saint behind you, everyone’s attitude will become “???”.

You, Bo Xun, have no one behind you now, and you are acting as your own strongman? If not you, who else should I rob?

The Taoist Master Ran Deng of the Chan Sect, and the Immortal Wuyun and the Immortal Qiu Shou of the Jie Sect have all appeared near the Sea of ​​Blood.

The Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Lotus attracted too much attention.

There are four twelve-level lotus platforms in the prehistoric world.

The twelve golden lotuses of merit are right there with the saint who guides people.

The twelfth-grade black lotus of destruction disappeared along with the demon ancestor Rāhu.

Then there is the twelfth-grade red lotus of karma fire and the twelfth-grade white lotus of pure world, which are the companion spiritual treasures of the ancestor of the Styx.

We should also mention Nuwa's terrible luck with this set of magical treasures. The Pure World White Lotus was the last to emerge, and its platform fell into the Three Thousand Weak Waters, its whereabouts unknown. Nuwa only had time to retrieve the lotus seeds and refine them into the Precious Lotus Lantern. This was partly because it was far from the time for the Pure World, preventing the Pure World White Lotus from emerging. It also proved her luck was truly lacking.

Who dares to snatch the twelve-level golden lotus of merit from the saint? The whereabouts of the black lotus and the white lotus are unknown, and the only red lotus has fallen into the hands of Mara. If you don't snatch it from him, you will be unworthy of the opportunity given by God.

These immortals who were fighting for the treasure exacerbated the chaos in the sea of ​​blood.

The fighting spirit of the Ten Kings of Hell and various ghost generals and ghost soldiers in the underworld is too high. Now we can only guide them and not suppress them.

Dizang stepped forward at the right moment and said, "Just go and fight, leave the rear to me! If there is any mistake, I will die as an apology!"
Niangniang Pingxin was willing to share some power with the Western Religion, but it was impossible for her to hand over the power of the underworld to the Western Religion. Unfortunately, the King of Hell, ghost generals, ghost soldiers and the Shura Religion in the underworld were fighting in full swing, and they really couldn't spare any manpower to come back to handle the paperwork, and no one from the witch clan was willing to come back.

Now tell Lord Haotian that we in the underworld are going to fight, so we should go on strike for a few days? Impossible.

In the end, there was no other choice but to think of Daji.

Less than half a month after seeing Daji off, the Deng family packed their bags and headed north to Chaoge to attend the wedding of Deng Xiu and Huang Yan.

Deng Jiugong, Aunt Huang, along with their nephews and nieces, totaling over thirty people, along with a thousand servants, left Nanjun in a mighty procession, heading north to Chaoge. Nominally, they were serving as Grand Marshals and Dukes of Han, but in reality, they were still hostages. Deng Chanyu didn't go; she stayed behind in Nanjun to look after the family.

Ding Ce, who was recruited in Chaoge before, can be responsible for some internal affairs.

Deng Chanyu spends most of her time practicing, occasionally handling some important government affairs, and leaving less important tasks to Ding Ce. Ding Ce is actually a military general at heart, but his ability in internal affairs is acceptable.

In addition, Deng Jiugong and Su Hu became sworn brothers.

It is definitely not possible to directly hand over the affairs of Nanjun to the Su family, but it is possible to let Deng Chanyu take the helm and let the Su father and son help with some auxiliary work.

At the same time, the Huang family of Chaoge and the Li family of Chentangguan also sent some family branches to Nanjun to serve as officials. With the joint efforts of the four major generals, Deng, Huang, Su and Li, they finally gathered some talents to handle government affairs.

Deng Chanyu's maid, Hongxiao, called her across the green light of the Liangyi lamp.

"Miss, Miss? There's a beautiful girl in red clothes looking for you outside."

"Who?"

"It seems to be called something like Ji."

"Is it Longji?"

"By the way, his name is indeed Longji!"

"Please wait for me to change my clothes and then go see her."

When Deng Chanyu came to the study, she saw Princess Longji was bored and was about to open the folding fan she had placed aside to look at something.

She hurried over and closed the folding fan with the words "Not a mirror polisher in the dust" written on it.

"I can't even look at this? It's quite mysterious?" Princess Longji raised her chin, and while her attention was on the folding fan, she quickly picked up a scroll from the table and unfolded it to take a closer look.

The scroll depicts a scene of Lin Daiyu using the chaotic cloak and stick technique to beat a tiger on Jingyang Ridge. The words next to the picture are very interesting.

She couldn't help but recite it aloud: "It's not just the likeness; in this place without a soul, each one of them stirs up their own emotions. Two cherries, like twin cherries, envy each other's lip balm fragrance."

She scratched her head and felt that the word was strange.
Deng Chanyu snatched it away and said, "Don't look at it! These are all confidential information of our Great Shang! What brings you all this way here? What's the matter?"

Princess Longji said mysteriously, "I heard a treasure appeared in the underworld called the Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Red Lotus. Shall we join forces and snatch it away?"

Deng Chanyu pointed at her, then at herself, with a strange expression on her face, shaking her head like a rattle: "I'm going to the underworld with you? No, I won't go even if you kill me!"

Are you kidding me? Going to the underworld now? What if I run into Daji?
The underworld is full of Daji's people! Deng Chanyu doesn't want to be beaten on the head by someone using the chaotic cloak stick method.

Now it is safer to go to the chaos with Princess Longji to find Grandpa Hongjun than to go to the underworld.

Princess Longji has always emphasized the power of the Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Red Lotus, and stressed that the two of them are people of virtue and deserve to get this red lotus.

Deng Chanyu was also very firm in her attitude. She absolutely would not go! If it was Hongmeng Purple Qi, she would be willing to take some risks. A Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Red Lotus was not worth it!
