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

At the same time, the Styx River also departed from the Netherworld Blood Sea, descending to the mortal realm aboard the Twelve-Petaled Karmic Fire Red Lotus. (At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name.)

Thus, this Investiture of the Gods ceremony was attended by six sages, as well as three Grand Immortals of Hunyuan: Lin Yang, Kong Xuan, and Styx.

Houtu was absent as always.

Everyone descended upon the Conferred God Platform, where Xuanyuan led many powerful members of the human race.

"Xuanyuan greets the Holy Mother!" Xuanyuan said to Nuwa.

Other human races also paid their respects.

Of course, Fuxi was an exception; he called her "sister," which pleased Nuwa the most.

Although her elder brother had undergone tribulation and become one of the three emperors of the human race, he was trapped in the Fire Cloud Cave and could not get out.

Now that she is free, Nuwa is naturally delighted.

"Hmph, Shen Gongbao, aren't you coming over here?" Yuanshi suddenly snorted and called out.

Shen Gongbao followed behind Xuanyuan. Upon hearing this, Shen Gongbao's expression changed slightly, but Xuanyuan gave him a look to reassure him and said, "Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, Shen Gongbao has joined my human race and is no longer a disciple of the Chan Sect."

"What?"

Yuanshi's expression changed. He had originally wanted Shen Gongbao to confer the gods according to his own wishes.

But now Shen Gongbao has actually defected to the human race?

Yuan Shi's eyes widened in anger, and he roared, "Shen Gongbao, how dare you?!"

Xuanyuan stepped forward, blocking Yuanshi's path. His expression darkened, and he said, "Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, you should save some face for yourself."

"Shen Gongbao is not valued in your Chan Sect. He has cultivated for so many years but has not been able to achieve immortality. This shows how bad things are."

"Look at Shen Gongbao's current cultivation level!"

Shen Gongbao displayed his cultivation level, and immediately, everyone's expressions turned strange.

At this time, Shen Gongbao's cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

"snort!"

Yuan Shi snorted coldly, his face terribly grim, but he knew that continuing the commotion would only make him look worse.

Laozi, Jieyin, and Zhunti, the three sages, all frowned, knowing that something unexpected might happen at this Investiture of the Gods ceremony.

After all, Shen Gongbao is no longer a disciple of the Chan Sect, but belongs to the human race.

How can this possibly get better?

Shen Gongbao is definitely biased towards the human race, not them.

"Shen Gongbao, go and confer the titles of gods!" Xuanyuan ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Shen Gongbao responded, strode confidently, and ascended the Investiture Platform.

On the Investiture of the Gods Platform, a list was displayed—the Investiture of the Gods List. And in Shen Gongbao's hand, he held the God-Slaying Whip.

As Shen Gongbao ascended the Investiture Platform, the Investiture List hanging on the platform immediately shone with golden light, illuminating the Three Realms.

"Buzz!"

The earth and sky trembled.

Shen Gongbao's face was solemn as he said in a deep voice, "I am hereby granted the decree of Hongjun, the Dao Ancestor of Zixiao Palace, to confer titles upon the gods."

"Gods, heed my command!"

"Bai Jian!"

Shen Gongbao shouted.

A true spirit suddenly flew out from the Investiture of the Gods, transforming into a human figure dressed in ancient armor.

It was Bai Jian. Bai Jian was once a great general under Xuanyuan, but he was killed in the great battle against Chiyou and became a wandering ghost, unable to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

"Bai Jian is here." After appearing, Bai Jian first bowed to Xuanyuan before addressing Shen Gongbao.

Shen Gongbao said, "I hereby appoint you as the leader of the Three Realms and to hold the position of one of the 365 Pure and Blessed Gods in the Eight Divisions. Are you willing?"

"willing."

Bai Jian bowed and said.

His name and divine position immediately appeared on the Investiture of the Gods list.

A divine power flew out from the Investiture of the Gods and landed on Bai Jian's true spirit, instantly creating a body for him.

Bai Jian immediately emanated divine power. After thanking Shen Gongbao, he stepped down from the Conferred God Platform and stood behind Xuanyuan.

Shen Gongbao then continued with the deification ceremony, asking, "Where is Wen Zhong?"

At this moment, a person emerged from behind Xuanyuan; it was Wen Zhong, who had led the army to conquer Xiqi.

Although Wen Zhong did not die before being listed, he could still be deified, as he was deified in his physical body.

Wen Zhong ascended the Investiture Platform.

Shen Gongbao bestowed the following decree: "You, Wen Zhong, have made great contributions in assisting the wise ruler during the Investiture of the Gods. Therefore, you are hereby granted a divine title in your physical body, and are hereby conferred the title of Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder and Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable, in charge of the Thunder Department."

Wen Zhong nodded and accepted the imperial decree. Immediately, a divine power flew out from the Investiture of the Gods and landed on Wen Zhong.

Wen Zhong shouted, "Slash!" A figure was separated from his body; this was his divine body.

Wen Zhong himself still needs to cultivate immortality, but his divine incarnation can take on the divine duties in his place.

Such a combination of cultivation of immortality and divine power allows one to accomplish both without neglecting either.

Wen Zhong descended from the Conferred God Platform and returned to Xuanyuan's side.

Then, Shen Gongbao continued with the investiture ceremony, loudly proclaiming, "Where is Bi Gan?"

"Bi Gan is here."

No sooner had he finished speaking than another figure emerged from behind Xuanyuan.

"Erbi Gan was the prime minister of the Shang Dynasty. During the great eons, he assisted the wise ruler and supported the country, making great contributions. Therefore, he was deified in his physical body and appointed as the Wenqu Star Lord, who can control the literary energy of the world."

Bi Gan bowed in gratitude.

The same divine power shot out from the Investiture of the Gods and landed on Bi Gan, causing him to radiate divine might.

He went from being an ordinary mortal to a god with divine power and might in an instant.

Bigan returned to Xuanyuan's back.

Next, Shen Gongbao continued to read aloud, and people kept walking out from behind Xuanyuan.

Such as Shang Rong, Ji Zi, Mei Bo, Wei Zi Qi, Wei Zi Yan, Du Yuan Xian, etc.

A total of twenty or thirty people walked out and were made gods in their physical bodies, which made the four saints Laozi, Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti tremble.

However, Tongtian, Nuwa, Lin Yang, and the others found it quite interesting.

Finally, the Shang Dynasty had granted all the titles it could, and now it was the turn of the Western Zhou.

Then Shen Gongbao announced, "Where is Ji Chang?"

A true spirit flew out from the Investiture of the Gods, its face filled with shame, and knelt on the Investiture Platform.

Shen Gongbao said, "Although you, Ji Chang, are a traitor, considering your success in deducing the Later Heaven Bagua, which has benefited the human race and made great contributions, I hereby appoint you as the Heavenly Mystery Star Lord of the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper."

Upon hearing this, Ji Chang turned around in surprise and glanced at Xuanyuan. Xuanyuan remained expressionless, but Ji Chang was in tears, kowtowed in gratitude, and accepted the divine appointment.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed, and they looked at Xuanyuan, secretly thinking that Xuanyuan's magnanimity was not to be underestimated.

Even though Ji Chang rebelled, he was still granted a divine position, which can be considered a very good one.

Then, Shen Gongbao continued reading, "Where is Boyi Kao?"

Bo Yikao's true spirit flew out and knelt on the Investiture of the Gods platform.

Shen Gongbao said, "Your father, Boyi, is very filial, therefore he is hereby named the Filial Piety Star Lord."

Bo Yikao bowed in gratitude and received the divine office.

Where is Lei Zhenzi?

Shen Gongbao continued to bestow titles, also conferring titles upon the true spirits of the Xiqi side. Moreover, judging from the divine positions conferred, while the titles of the Xiqi side could not be described as excellent, they were all quite good nonetheless.

After sealing the spirits of the Xiqi faction who had been listed, Shen Gongbao continued, "Where is Luo Xuan?"

The one who was conferred the title was a disciple of the Jie Sect. Tongtian Sect Leader's eyes lit up as he looked at the Investiture of the Gods Platform.

Luo Xuan's spirit emerged from the Investiture of the Gods and was bestowed the title of Fire Virtue Star Lord by Shen Gongbao.

Tongtian nodded, quite satisfied.

Sure enough, one by one, the disciples of the Jie Sect who had perished in the great calamity and whose true spirits were listed on the list were all granted respectable divine positions.

However, the better Tongtian's expression became, the worse the expressions of Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti became.

After all, the current situation is clear: Xuanyuan is befriending Tongtian, while for them, they are definitely enemies.

If this continues, I'm afraid the divine positions their disciples will receive when they are officially appointed will be quite poor.

A hint of ferocity flashed in Yuan Shi's eyes.
