Chapter 306: Agreed to Confer the Godhood
Yang Jian looked a little embarrassed: "Uncle Master, please understand. These lotus roots were stolen from Mount Xumi. As for whether to use them to rebuild Nezha's body, Uncle Master, please think carefully."
"My nephew has really given my uncle a difficult problem!"
Taiyi Zhenren took a deep breath and stroked his beard repeatedly.
If he collected these lotus roots, the origin of these lotus roots would become the lifeblood of him, Taiyi Zhenren.
If the two saints in the West knew about this, they would definitely bear a grudge against him, but they would be considerate of Yuanshi Tianzun and would not take action against him openly.
But the hidden actions will definitely not stop.
At the same time, his position will be completely bound by the Heavenly Court. If he dislikes the Western religion, he can only side with the Heavenly Court.
As for being a fence-sitter?
Taiyi Zhenren has never considered this matter. Being a fence-sitter will never have a good result.
In past great disasters between heaven and earth, any forces that acted like fence-sitters would be the first to be dealt with by both sides.
Because both opposing forces are worried that they will be weakened after fighting to the death and then be taken advantage of by fence-sitters, they will tacitly suppress the neutral forces first.
After Yang Jian took out the golden lotus root of merit.
Taiyi Zhenren realized that he was being put into trouble.
If you collect the lotus roots, you will be caught by the Heavenly Court.
Not harvesting lotus roots will also bring disgrace to the heaven.
After all, Heaven has shown such sincerity in stealing the lotus roots. If the news of stealing lotus roots leaks out in the future, it will be recorded on Taiyi's head.
Taiyi Zhenren sighed deeply: "Forget it~ For Nezha, Uncle Master has to take this risk!"
After saying that, he put the lotus root away.
Then he took Yang Jian back to the cave where he met guests.
When Dizang looked at Taiyi Zhenren's expression, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
At this time, Taiyi Zhenren's face was flushed with rosy glow, and he no longer had the worry about Nezha's physical body. It was obvious that something had happened that made him extremely happy.
what happened?
Dizang couldn't understand.
However, Manjusri Taoist did not see the clues and continued to shout shamelessly: "Brother, Yang Jian must have deceived you. He dared to deceive you and wasted my time. I think it is better to punish him and let the Golden Spirit Mother come to apologize in person."
"Brother, shut up!"
Taiyi Zhenren stopped him from speaking wildly.
This Manjusri is really arrogant. You have to know that the Golden Spirit Mother is an existence that has achieved the Hunyuan Dao Fruit. Even if the twelve golden immortals were added together, they might not be able to defeat the Golden Spirit Mother.
Manjusri even wanted the Golden Spirit Mother to come and apologize.
On the surface, it was to protect the face of his senior brother, Taiyi Zhenren.
In fact, it was setting a trap for him.
If the Golden Spirit Mother were to come, the owner of Qianyuan Mountain would probably have to be replaced.
After all, Jiejiao was worried that Jin'ao Island was too small to move around.
Haven’t you seen that the Southern Continent gave the Jiejiao disciple Wen Zhong a name to intervene in the dispute?
The third generation disciples of Jiejiao rushed to the southern continent like crazy.
Now they are fighting a bloody battle with the demon tribe in the northern border of Jambu Continent.
Manjusri was about to make an excuse.
Then Taiyi Zhenren glared at him fiercely, as if he was going to fight with Manjusri Taoist if he spoke nonsense again.
Taoist Ritian and Yang Jian exchanged glances.
Yang Jian nodded secretly.
Dizang saw everything and his heart sank completely.
He realized that staying here any longer was a waste of time and might as well plan to go somewhere else.
Thinking of this, he said goodbye.
Taiyi Zhenren tried to persuade him to stay, saying that he would let his disciples prepare a banquet.
Dizang declined again and again before giving up.
After Ksitigarbha and Manjusri Taoist left, Yang Jian also said goodbye at the instruction of Ritian Taoist.
Taiyi Zhenren also tried to persuade Nezha to stay, but when he saw that he could not keep him, he said that after Nezha's physical body was successfully refined, he would take Nezha to the Heaven to thank the Emperor of Heaven.
Yang Jian rode on a cloud, and the Taoist priest Ritian stood behind the cloud, heading towards the heaven.
"Yang Jian, you did a great job! How should I reward you?"
The voice of Taoist Ritian suddenly came from behind Yang Jian.
Yang Jian was stunned when he heard this: "Yang Jian dare not take credit for it. It is all because of the wise and powerful leadership of the Heavenly Emperor. Any immortal in the Heavenly Court can do this with the support of the Heavenly Emperor."
"Come on, stop pretending in front of me!"
The Japanese Taoist pretended to be unhappy.
He thought for a moment, then said, "This vast world is beyond the reach of Heaven to completely rule it. Now that you are helping Heaven, it will surely prosper in the future. To establish order in this world, I can only rely on my nephew."
No matter how great the reward is, it is not as important as Haotian's words.
When Yang Jian thought of the future Lord of the Three Realms, the supreme Emperor Haotian saying these words to him, he felt a little elated.
The next moment, Yang Jian forced himself to calm down.
He is not uncommon to see such boasting and empty talk.
But the pie that Haotian painted was so delicious.
But the pie is always illusory. Only when you get down to business and eat what you have in your mouth is it yours.
Think of this.
Yang Jian said solemnly: "As long as Yang Jian is in charge of the List of Conferred Gods, the rule of Heaven will no longer be empty talk. Yang Jian will make sure that wherever the sun and the moon shine, they will all be governed by Heaven!"
The Investiture of the Gods, or the Investiture of the Gods.
Yang Jian knew that as long as he was allowed to be in charge of the List of Gods, once the souls of the creatures who died in the catastrophe were included in the list, he would be able to use his magic eye to extract a share of their souls.
Although the immortals and gods are the reserve officials of the Heavenly Court, they all have to pass through his hands before they are qualified to be deified.
Relying on this relationship, he is the godfather of all the immortals in heaven!
In addition, the massive amount of essence in it can bring him an improvement in his cultivation.
The number one person under the saint is none other than Yang Jian!
Taoist Ritian nodded slowly: "You don't need to worry about the Conferred God List. With me as your guarantor and the support of Jiejiao, there will be no other candidate except you. If Taiyi Zhenren couldn't solve this matter, I would have handed the Conferred God List to the Chanjiao to decide in order to win over Chanjiao. Now that you have solved this matter, this list belongs to you, but~"
The Taoist priest Tian wanted to speak but stopped himself.
"Uncle, are you worried that Yang Jian will abuse his power for personal gain?"
Yang Jian understood the Emperor's concerns and took the initiative to speak. He even took the initiative to reveal Ri Tiandao's identity and addressed him as uncle in order to bring the two closer.
Taoist Ritian did not say anything, but the look in his eyes showed that what Yang Jian said was indeed what he was worried about.
Yang Jian looked up at the clouds and said casually, "If I were in charge of the Conferred God List, I would put all the great demons and immortals without backgrounds on the list, so as to clear up the mountains and rivers and take back the authority of heaven and earth. As for those with backgrounds, if the people of the three religions dare to stop them and seek death, they will all be on the list."
"What about Jiejiao? How is Jiejiao?"
Haotian suddenly asked.
The power of Jiejiao at this time is much greater than that of Heaven.
If Jiejiao is not eliminated, the majesty of the Heavenly Court will only be an illusory existence.
The core of Jiejiao is the second generation disciples.
Their strength is unrivaled in the ancient world.
Haotian imagined that if he let Yang Jian take charge of the Conferred God Ceremony, the Jiejiao would become bigger and stronger. How would he, the Emperor of Heaven, deal with the situation then?
Yang Jian smiled upon hearing this: "I will make sure everyone from Jiejiao is on the list!"
Taoist Ritian was overjoyed: "Good nephew!"
Yang Jian thought to himself, this was Haotian’s own request, after all, a physical body would also be on the list.
There are so many powerful people in Jiejiao. If they enter the Heavenly Palace, Haotian will have a lot of headaches to come.
I don’t know if Haotian will regret his decision today.
