Primordial Era: My God, this phoenix is ​​too cunning!

However, Lin Yang, after refining the fragments of the Blood Law during this period, finally succeeded in fully comprehending the Blood Law. Remember this site's domain name.

Thus, another complete law was added to the vast world, the eleventh complete law—the Law of Blood.

"System, I choose option one." After a moment's thought, Lin Yang made his choice.

The Great Tribulation of the Gods, we've been waiting for so long. Lin Yang moved and left the Great Thousand World.

Back in the Undying Volcano, a boy indeed arrived with an invitation. However, this boy was neither Haotian nor Yaochi from before.

After all, the two now rule the Heavenly Realm; one is the Heavenly Emperor, and the other is the Heavenly Empress, so their status and position are no longer the same.

This boy was newly created by Hongjun to be used by him.

Lin Yang summoned the boy in, asked him what had happened, and then sent him away.

Lin Yang, however, was in no hurry to set off. After waiting a while, a streak of blood-red light flew in from the direction of the Netherworld Blood Sea.

But it is the River Styx.

As for Houtu, she clearly wasn't planning to go this time either. So Lin Yang teamed up with Minghe and headed to Zixiao Palace.

When they arrived at Zixiao Palace, they saw that all six sages had already arrived.

Of course, there's also Hongjun and Haotian.

Lin Yang could see clearly that at this moment, Hongjun was Hongjun, but not the Heavenly Dao.

Of course, although the Heavenly Dao did not occupy Hongjun's body, Lin Yang would not truly believe that the Heavenly Dao was no longer there.

Just like last time, Lin Yang and Minghe prepared their own prayer mats and sat down.

Hongjun merely gave Lin Yang a cold greeting before saying, "Haotian came to me crying, saying that the Heavenly Court has no one to rely on, and that the disciples of various sects do not respect the Heavenly Court. So I have summoned you here to see what your explanation is."

Upon hearing this, all the sages' expressions immediately turned grim. When they looked at Haotian, especially Yuanshi, their eyes practically spitting fire.

Haotian was not afraid. With Hongjun backing him up, he did not believe that the saints could do anything to him.

In the Purple Cloud Palace, apart from Nuwa, who had not established a religion at all, none of the other saints dared to speak.

After a while, Hongjun's expression softened, and he took out a long whip with a list on it.

It was the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip. The Heavenly Book, one of the three books of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

As the saints were filled with doubt, they heard Hongjun say, "These are the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip."

"The Investiture of the Gods can enfeoff 365 righteous gods, which are divided into eight parts: the upper four parts are thunder, fire, plague and war, and the lower four parts are stars and constellations, mountains and peaks, rain and clouds, and gods of good and evil."

"And the God-Slaying Whip can control all the gods on the list."

"Yuanshi, take this Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip." With that, Hongjun handed the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip to Yuanshi.

Although Yuanshi was unwilling, he dared not refuse and had no choice but to accept it.

Hongjun said, "This Investiture of the Gods must be in your hands. Yuanshi, your twelve Golden Immortal disciples have not severed their Three Corpses or devoured their Six Qi for thousands of years. Moreover, they committed murder during the reign of the Human Emperor, which triggered the calamity of heaven and earth."

"The reason I summoned you here is secondary; the important reason is that the next great calamity is approaching."

Upon hearing this, all the sages were startled. After all, they had all experienced the power of a great calamity.

"May I ask, Master, are the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip the items that can resolve this great calamity?" Laozi asked.

Hongjun nodded and said, "It cannot be resolved, but it can be mitigated. This great calamity should primarily affect the sects of your sages, therefore you may sign this proclamation."

"When the great calamity arrives, those whose names are on the list will be enshrined as gods."

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi's heart stirred, and he quickly asked, "Can disciples from other sects also be included on the list?"

Upon hearing this, Hongjun merely glanced at Yuanshi. It was as if to say, "Isn't this just stating the obvious?"

Even if all twelve Golden Immortals under the Chan Sect were included, it wouldn't even be enough to fill a fraction of the 365 True Gods.

The other saints all wore pained expressions. Zhunti quickly stepped forward and said, "May I ask, Master, all the disciples of my Western Sect have washed away their karma in the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, and we usually do not leave the Western Paradise, thus avoiding karmic consequences. I wonder if we can be exempted from this great eon?"

Hongjun pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's fine. If the disciples of the Western Sect do not leave the Blissful Paradise, they will not be considered to have entered the Tribulation."

Zhunti was overjoyed. Jieyin also shook off his sorrow and showed a happy expression.

Conversely, the three Pure Ones all became solemn.

Now that the Western religion has also entered the Great Kalpa, does that mean that only the three religions of Man, Chan, and Jie are left?

After all, Nuwa did not establish a religion.

Hongjun glanced at Lin Yang and Styx, then said, "Apart from the Western Sect, the Phoenix Clan, the Asura Clan, and the Witch Clan will also be safe and sound if they do not enter the Great Tribulation."

Lin Yang nodded and offered no further comment.

The main reason I came here was to see a play.

The sages dared not object to this. After all, Lin Yang's destructive power was undeniable.

It's alright now that it's just a minor tribulation, but if Lin Yang gets involved, then it might turn into an immeasurable tribulation.

Hongjun glanced at the Three Pure Ones and said, "Which disciples of the three religions are on the list? Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian, you shall sign your names here!"

The Three Pure Ones looked at each other, and suddenly, Laozi spoke up: "I only have one disciple, Xuandu, who needs to pass on my lineage, so it's not appropriate for him to be on the list."

"Then let one of my avatars be on the list."

Lao Tzu took the Investiture of the Gods from Yuan Shi's hands and signed his name on it, which was none other than "Taishang Laojun".

After signing, Laozi returned the Investiture of the Gods to Yuanshi Tianzun, sat down, and ignored it.

Yuanshi gritted his teeth and tried to say to Tongtian, "I don't have many disciples, so why don't you sign the Investiture of the Gods?"

"After all, most of your disciples, Tongtian, are shallow-minded and lack the fortune to cultivate the Dao, so it is just right for them to be on the Investiture of the Gods list."

But Tongtian was not pleased to hear this, and immediately started arguing with Yuanshi.

Hongjun shook his head and quickly stopped the two of them, saying, "Since neither of you is willing to sign, let's leave it blank for now."

"During the great calamity, life and death are preordained. Those with deep roots and virtues will survive the calamity and attain immortality; those with lesser roots and virtues will be listed as gods and attain divine status; while those with shallow roots and virtues will enter the cycle of reincarnation and attain human status."

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi and Tongtian pondered for a moment and then agreed.

After all, arguing any further wouldn't lead to anything. Neither Yuanshi nor Tongtian wanted to include their own disciples on the list.

"Since that's the case, you may all go back now." Hongjun didn't say anything more and simply dismissed everyone.

After hearing what had happened, Lin Yang and Minghe were too lazy to stay any longer and went straight out the door, leaving gracefully.

The sages also departed one after another. Before leaving, Yuanshi and Tongtian didn't forget to glare at Haotian.

Haotian's heart trembled. He was about to speak with Hongjun again when he saw that Hongjun had already left the platform at some point.

Two boys came forward and asked Haotian to leave. Haotian shook his head, a sense of loss in his heart.

She had thought that Hongjun would really help her, but now it seemed that she was probably just a pawn in Hongjun's game.

Otherwise, why would the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip be given to Yuanshi instead of himself?

Haotian left Zixiao Palace and returned to the Heavenly Court. Regardless, he had still gained some benefits from this great calamity.

Moreover, all the saints will be busy dealing with the great calamity, so the Heavenly Court can have some peace and quiet for a while.
