Investiture of the Gods Xiao Sheng, the Poor Taoist Priest, Even Rogue Cultivators Have Human Rights

Chapter 106: Below the Saint, All Are WeakChapter 106: Below the Saint, All Are Weak

Now, Hongjun said that the coming catastrophe will be even larger in scale than in the past. If this news spreads, it will surely cause the entire world to tremble and all living beings to panic.

However, the expressions of the saints remained calm, without any fluctuation.

Since I have attained the status of a saint of the Heavenly Dao, I am immune to all calamities. No matter how great the calamity is, what does it have to do with them?

It’s nothing more than the death of some ordinary people. Billions of years later, the wilderness will give birth to countless living beings again.

Below the saint, we are all grass.

At the level of a saint, emotions have long been indifferent, and he regards all living beings as dust in the universe, and is indifferent to them.

”also.”

However, Hongjun did not stop there, but continued: ”There is still one thing that needs your help.”

”Haotian founded the Heavenly Palace, but it is short of manpower and urgently needs many creatures to move in, accept divine duties, and enrich the Heavenly Palace.”

”In the prehistoric world, only you, the disciples of the four religions, have outstanding talents. You should move forward bravely, enter the Heavenly Palace, take on the divine duties, rule the three realms of the prehistoric world, and build a brand new order.”

”Huh?” As soon as these words came out, among the six saints of the Heavenly Dao, except Nuwa, the expressions of the other five suddenly changed, and there was a look of astonishment in their eyes.

The reason why Nuwa was indifferent was that she had no disciples. The only registered disciple, Yang Chan, was accepted by her mount, the Golden Phoenix.

However, the Three Pure Ones, Cundi, and Jieying are completely different.

Their faces all turned gloomy.

Earlier, when the wizard-lich calamity came to an end, Hongjun established the Heavenly Palace and ordered his own gatekeeper boy to serve as the Emperor of Heaven, which they already had complaints about in their hearts.

After all, they are all extremely noble saints. How can a mere gatekeeper boy, with only the cultivation level of a quasi-saint, be qualified to take the throne of the Emperor of Heaven?

However, this was Hongjun’s intention. They were afraid of Hongjun’s power and did not dare to say much.

Unexpectedly, now Hongjun actually wants all their disciples to join the Heavenly Palace and become the gods of Heavenly Palace!

The saint of the heavenly way can see through the long river of time at a glance and understand the true meaning of the righteous gods in an instant.

The so-called gods in heaven, once they become gods, will enjoy endless life and be blessed by the luck of heaven. But at the same time, their cultivation realm will remain there forever without the possibility of any further advancement.

Such a position is undoubtedly a dream come true for ordinary cultivators.

But how can the disciples of the saints be satisfied with this?

What they seek is the supreme Hunyuan Dao!
How can I allow myself to be bound by the priesthood of Heaven?
In an instant, except for Nuwa who had no disciples, the remaining saints were all silent, with changing expressions, obviously resisting.

”The number of living beings in the prehistoric world is as numerous as the grains of sand in the Ganges River, numerous and boundless.” ”When a mortal among them dies, he enters the cycle of reincarnation, and all cause and effect are resolved from then on.”

”Only by cultivating to the level of a celestial immortal can one achieve immortality and enjoy an endless lifespan. As for the Daluo Golden Immortal, one is above the long river of fate and is not subject to the suffering of reincarnation.”

”Over the years, the entanglement of cause and effect between countless powerful people will gather into a vast karma.”

”This karma will eventually explode one day and turn into a catastrophe that sweeps across the great wilderness. All lives caught in the catastrophe will be liquidated and the accumulated karma will be cleared.”

Hongjun said coldly, ”Letting your disciples be listed on the God List is also a way to avoid disaster. If you don’t want to, no one can predict what the final outcome will be.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Patriarch Hongjun waved his hand, and a dazzling piece of silk suddenly appeared in the Zixiao Palace, on which were written three shocking characters - The List of the Gods!

The list is blank, as if waiting for someone to pick up a pen and write down the name that is destined to change their fate.

When Pangu created the world, thirty-six pieces of Chaos Green Lotus fragments were scattered in the wilderness and turned into three treasures: the List of Gods, the Earth’s Fetal Membrane, and the Book of Life and Death. Among them, the Book of Life and Death carries the names of all living beings in the wilderness and controls reincarnation. It is mysterious and unpredictable. It is said that it is personally controlled by the good corpse of Hou Tu Niangniang in the underworld, that is, the Niangniang of Samsara. Hou Tu sacrificed herself to achieve the great way of reincarnation and possessed the power of a saint in the underworld. The Book of Life and Death in her control makes all saints fearful, making the underworld unique and difficult to shake in the wild world.

As for the fetal membrane of the earth, it is now owned by the Great Immortal Zhen Yuan. Its defensive power is invincible. It is rumored that Zhen Yuanzi is based on the earth and with the help of the power of the Book of the Earth, he can borrow the protection of the fetal membrane of the earth covering the entire prehistoric world, making him invincible by nature and making people terrified.

The Conferred God List in Hongjun’s hand is one of the three treasures, and will become a great treasure of the Heavenly Court in the future. If a mortal’s name is on this list, all possibilities of attaining the Dao of Hunyuan will be cut off.

Hongjun’s words were as cold as iron, but every word struck the hearts of the six Heavenly Dao saints. As the Conferred God List appeared in the world, they all felt a chill. Obviously, if they went against Hongjun’s will, the consequences would be unpredictable.

No matter what they had in mind, they all understood at this moment that this list of gods had to be filled in, whether they wanted to or not! This was the majesty of the Great Dao Ancestor.

Taiqing Laozi’s temperament was closest to Hongjun’s, and he usually looked aloof from the world. At this moment, he was the first to bow his head and ask, ”Teacher, how many lives are needed to fill this list of gods?”

Hongjun responded calmly: ”There are many vacancies in the Heavenly Court. We need 365 Zhou Tian Xing Zheng Shen, 2,000 Eight Departments Zheng Shen and their subordinate gods, plus 84,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, a total of 86,350 people.”

“Is the number so huge?” Upon hearing this, the faces of all the saints changed.

Almost at the same moment, their eyes were all directed towards Master Tongtian.

Although the disciples of the Human Sect, the Orthodox Sect, and the Western Sect are skilled, their numbers are limited. Even if they give their all, they cannot meet the needs of the List of Gods.

However, this is not the case with the Jiejiao. This sect is famous in the ancient world for recruiting many disciples. No matter whether they are born from eggs or have fur and horns, they can all learn to practice Taoism, so it has the reputation of ”ten thousand immortals coming to pay homage”.

At this moment, it seems that if we want to fill up the List of Gods, there seems to be no other way but to let the Jiejiao make huge sacrifices.

”Why are you staring at me?” Tongtian Patriarch snorted coldly, with a barely perceptible flash of anger in his eyes.

Saint Tongtian was burning with rage, and he instantly understood the hidden intentions in the eyes of his peers.

However, no matter what, his disciples are still disciples. Once they enter the List of Gods, he will also feel unbearable pain in his heart.
