Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 962 The Ancestral Dragon Pearl is Broken

Deng Chanyu took away eighty merits alone. This amount of merit exceeded the total of all the merits she had obtained before. A golden wheel of merit appeared behind her head. After absorbing this massive amount of merit, the golden wheel became more and more holy and pure.

The merit of creating the world was also absorbed into her soul. Just by absorbing it, her soul turned golden, and the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth increased by 50%. Many of the great insights that she had learned from the Taoist world before had a new understanding. If the prehistoric world was compared to a living being, then at this moment this living being was cheering for her, because she was also one of the masters of this world.

She might have been bragging when she said before that she was the successor of Honghuang. Now she is not as good as the six saints, but compared with the other powerful people, she is far ahead in terms of status.

Deng Chanyu took the lion's share, and the remaining merits flew in all directions.

Taoist Duobao and Yunxiao from the East China Sea took away 15% of the merits.

Duobao had the merit of helping to block the sea eye. To be fair, this was worthy of praise. No one ordered him to come, but he came. He blocked the sea eye while bearing the siege of the dragon spirits in the sea eye, preventing the situation in the East China Sea from collapsing further. He bought time for all forces including the Queen Wa Palace. No one could say anything about his merits.

Yunxiao attacked the Gate of Destiny three times in a row, and even if he didn't get any credit, he still worked hard.

The remaining half of the achievement was divided very fragmentedly.

The Golden Spirit Holy Mother, the Wu Dang Holy Mother, Zhao Gongming, Qiong Xiao, Jiang Ziya, and Yuan Feng are all within this range.

That's right, Yuan Feng did have merit for stopping Zu Long, although it wasn't much, and although his life sentence wouldn't be turned into a fixed-term sentence, he still received a reward. If he performed meritorious service again in the future, perhaps we could discuss it.
Thunder God and Qiong Long also followed him to the Yin-Yang Realm, but they didn't receive any merit. They knew full well that Hongjun simply didn't want to waste time with them. He wasn't a fool. You guys are causing trouble while I clean up the mess. I'll subdue the dragon clan's luck and reward you with merit, so that you can balance your income and expenditure. Are you dreaming?

The luck of the dragon clan plummeted, and the Thunder God spat out a mouthful of blood with dazzling electric light. His body trembled violently, and all the wounds left from the previous battle with Kong Xuan in the chaos opened up. The Five Elements Divine Light that had been suppressed for a long time burst out from the inside out. From a distance, it looked like a colorful ball of light.

The punishment was actually not severe, mainly because he was still a Buddhist, so it was considered a lenient sentence.

There is a precious pearl enshrined in the center of the main hall of the Ancestral Dragon Temple. It is the Ancestral Dragon Pearl, which contains the essence of the Ancestral Dragon when he was at his most powerful. It is the most precious treasure of the dragon clan, and the owner can command all the dragons in the prehistoric world.

When the melee among the three tribes ended and they decided to seal the sea eye, the Ancestral Dragon left the Ancestral Dragon Pearl with the dragon clan. This was not only a top-grade innate spiritual treasure on par with the Phoenix Staff and the Qilin Seal, but also the symbol of the dragon clan. At this time, their luck dropped greatly, and as a symbol of the clan, the Ancestral Dragon Pearl was completely shattered.

All the dragons heard a crisp "crack" sound. Some were confused, some were horrified, and some were happy. Regardless of whether they admitted it or not, the Ancestral Dragon Pearl was broken. The previous pyramid ruling model that started with the Ancestral Dragon and went through the dragon elders, divine dragons, true dragons, the Four Seas Dragon Kings, and the four sea creatures in order completely collapsed. The Ancestral Dragon Palace no longer had bloodline jurisdiction over the Four Seas Dragon Kings. They were free, just like the Phoenix and Qilin tribes before.

Now the birds still recognize the Phoenix clan, but this is just respect. In fact, they have no jurisdiction. The Qilin is even worse off. The beasts do not think that the Qilin is their ruler. If a lone Qilin is found in the wild, those jackals, tigers and leopards may want to taste the taste of the former king.

The Ancestral Dragon Hall was heartbroken. Without the unconditional support of the Four Seas, where would their vast army of divine and true dragons find cultivation resources? Would they have to fight for cultivation resources outside like those scattered immortals? The dragons were confused.

The Four Dragon Kings and a group of dragons whose bloodline concentration was not so high had different expressions. No one wanted to be a passing god of wealth. They themselves had to practice, and their descendants had to practice. They had to offer a large amount of natural treasures to the Ancestral Dragon Palace before, but would they not have to offer them in the future?
In fact, it cannot be said that the dragon clan has fallen into decline. It can only be said that they have been pulled to the same level as the phoenix clan and the Qilin clan.

Reforging the Ancestral Dragon Pearl? Don't even think about it for a million years. For them, this is the arrival of winter, prepare for hard times. The dragon clan wailed, but the Jiejiao sect was very happy.

A few poor disciples of Jiejiao were busy collecting their merits.

It was relatively easy to earn merit during the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. At that time, the human race had just risen, and you could earn merit by simply building a house or fishing. Even a fool like the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother could earn merit by creating characters with Cangjie. But now times have changed, and there are too few ways to gain merit.

Merit is a rare thing in Jiejiao. If the dragon clan had not caused trouble in the East China Sea this time, they would not have come to help, let alone gain merit.

They rarely see merits in their daily lives, but that’s not to say they have never seen them. Jiang Ziya is the one who has truly never seen merits.

He felt a golden light enter his body, and his body felt warm. What exactly was this? He didn't know.

His "good friend" Elder Qiulong is a criminal and is surrounded by Jiejiao immortals. He has no choice but to come and ask for advice from the "Yuqing" Immortal.

Deng Chanyu didn't think this was a secret. For the sake of Yuxu Palace, she gave a brief explanation: "Generally, immortals use the merits they gain to improve their cultivation. If they encounter a bottleneck, they use the merits to break through it. Alternatively, they can preserve it and gather it into a golden wheel of merit. Those who possess the golden wheel of merit are warded off all evil and are immune to all attacks. Of course, this is relative."

Not long after, Venus fell from the sky.

Jiang Ziya completed the task well and Haotian was very satisfied.

The Sea Eye incident was successfully resolved and Zulong was "rescued". Don't worry about whether Lao Jiang won easily or not, the mission was accomplished anyway.

Deng Chanyu officially took over the task of repairing the sky. Even if she couldn't do it, there was still Nuwa. If even Nuwa couldn't do it, then everyone should pack up, disband quickly, and wander in the chaos.

After completing both the Sea Eye and Sky Repair tasks, Lao Jiang was promoted from a temporary worker to a regular worker. This time, Taibai Jinxing invited him to serve as an official in heaven.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang has gone through so much hardship and finally achieved enlightenment. This is truly cause for celebration."

Deng Chanyu was busy here, and she casually said a few words of congratulations without asking about the specific official position. Considering Haotian's personality and the current situation in the court, he would not give him an official position that was too low, but not too high either.

Jiang Ziya smiled and returned the greeting. It was really difficult for him to get involved in big events at his level of cultivation. Now he finally took a big step forward.
