Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 182: Rectification of Jiejiao
Hearing Tongtian's words, a hint of embarrassment flashed in the eyes of the Two Saints of the West and Yuanshi Tianzun. Since the discussion of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors until now, they have never asked Laozi's opinion.

But Laozi didn't care about it and remained calm.

When he heard Tongtian say that he was willing to give him the position of the first Five Emperors' Master, Laozi didn't show any extra expression, but just nodded casually and said, "Then my Taoist sect will take the position of the first Emperor's Master."

The Two Saints of the West and Yuanshi Tianzun all breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

At this point, the distribution of the teachers of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was completed.

The Jie Sect obtained the teacher of the Emperor of Heaven and the last teacher of the Five Emperors. The Holy Lotus Sect obtained the teacher of the Emperor of Earth and the second teacher of the Five Emperors. The Chen Sect obtained the teacher of the Emperor of Man. The Western Sect obtained the third and fourth teachers of the Five Emperors. The Taoist Sect obtained the first teacher of the Five Emperors.

After discussing this matter, the saints left the Biyou Palace and waited for the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to begin.

Soon, only Bai Jing, Tongtian and Nuwa were left in Biyou Palace.

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, I wonder which of my disciples you want to teach fellow Daoist Fuxi?" Tongtian asked.

"It is up to you, Daoist friend, to decide on this matter. There is no need to ask me."

"Then I'll make my own decision."

Nuwa nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, the human race is now the protagonist of the world and is destined to prosper. Many of your disciples of Jiejiao are raw meat eaters and especially like cannibalism. It would be best for you to persuade them to stop them from rejecting the disciples of Jiejiao after the human race prospers in the future."

After listening to Bai Jing's words, Tongtian nodded and said, "Thank you for speaking frankly. To be honest, I have already considered this matter, but was delayed by some things. I will talk to my disciples later."

Bai Jing smiled and nodded.

Afterwards, the three of them discussed the matter of the Kongtong Seal for a while, and finally left the Kongtong Seal to Tongtian and left.

As soon as Bai Jing and Nuwa left, Tongtian Sect Master immediately ordered the Water and Fire Boy to beat the fisherman's drum and summon the disciples of the Shangqing lineage to come to the Biyou Palace to discuss matters.

As soon as the fishing drum sounded, the disciples of the Jiejiao on Jin'ao Island responded one after another. Several streams of light flew from all directions and landed in the Biyou Palace.

Since Jiejiao established its temple on Jin'ao Island, it has recruited disciples twice. The first time was when Tongtian first came to Jin'ao Island and announced to the entire prehistoric world that he would preach. At that time, Tongtian recruited nearly 10,000 disciples.

The second time was recently. To be precise, this time it was not Tongtian who accepted a disciple, but Tongtian’s disciples who accepted disciples. Take Duobao for example, he has already accepted his disciple, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit.

Because Tongtian had previously accepted disciples based only on affinity in order to gather the good fortune of Jiejiao, that is, whether or not the disciples could comprehend the Great Dao of Shangqing, it is not an exaggeration to say that the registered disciples of Jiejiao were in a mess.

Among them, there are many people who eat raw meat and drink blood and have no moral conduct, which pollutes the fortune of Jiejiao.

In comparison, the third generation disciples of Jiejiao had much better conduct and morality. After all, Jiejiao now had seven deities in heaven, and two of them were among the Four Imperial Gods. Its core fortune had been stabilized, so when it came time to recruit disciples, there were naturally more things to consider.

With the addition of three generations of disciples, Jiejiao is now flourishing and has the feeling of being the greatest sect in the ancient world.

"Disciples, greetings to the teacher." In the Biyou Palace, the disciples of Jiejiao bowed and saluted to the Master Tongtian.

Tongtian Patriarch nodded in satisfaction, and cast a magical power to lift everyone up, then said in a serious tone: "I believe you all know that I went to Zixiao Palace to discuss matters before. Daozu and the saints for us said that the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors is about to begin, and the human race should prosper.

Now I hold the Kongtong Seal, the most precious treasure of humanity, and can be the teacher of the Emperor of Heaven, and the last imperial teacher." After saying this, Master Tongtian glanced at all the disciples.

Both the registered disciples and the direct disciples below looked very excited. It was obvious that all the disciples of Jiejiao realized what the Kongtong Seal meant to Jiejiao.

Tongtian was very satisfied with the attitude of his disciples, so it was easier for him to continue his words: "Now the human race has become the protagonist of the world, and I, the master, will make it clear in advance that in the future, all my disciples of Jiejiao are not allowed to slaughter and devour the human race at will. This is the order of my Jiejiao, and no one is allowed to violate it. Once I find out that someone has attacked the human race, at the very least, their cultivation will be abolished and they will be expelled from Jiejiao, or at the worst, they will die and enter the cycle of reincarnation again!"

After Tongtian finished speaking, he cast his sharp eyes over the disciples below.

Some disciples of Jiejiao who usually attacked the human race immediately lowered their heads and dared not look at Tongtian.

After the intimidation, Tongtian's eyes fell on Duobao: "Duobao, you are my senior brother of Jiejiao, and your cultivation is the best among all the disciples. I want you to be the teacher of the Emperor of Heaven. What do you think?"

Duobao's eyes lit up when he heard this. The Emperor's teacher must have done a lot of good deeds. If he could seize this opportunity, he might have a chance to behead the corpse and become a quasi-saint.

Thinking of this, Duobao immediately stood up and bowed, saying: "Disciple will obey the master's order."

Tongtian nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Duobao, the emperor has a special status. You can teach him, but don't call him master and disciple. Do you understand?"

Duobao was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously thought: "Who is this emperor who can make a saint of heaven like Master say that he has a special identity?"

Of course, although he was thinking about it, Duobao did not hesitate at all and agreed without hesitation: "Disciple understands, please rest assured, Master."

"Okay, then from now on, you will go down to the mortal world and find the Emperor to teach you well."

"Yes, Master!"

Then Tongtian Patriarch turned to look at Wudang Holy Mother and said, "Wudang, I will keep this last Master of the Five Emperors for you."

Wu Dang obviously didn't expect that the last Master of the Five Emperors would fall on her head. After hesitating for a moment, she asked: "Master, didn't I have Senior Sister Jin Ling before? This Master of the Five Emperors should be her, right?"

Master Tongtian shook his head and said meaningfully: "Wudang, your Senior Sister Jinling and Junior Brother Gongming already hold the honorable position of the Four Imperial Lords. It is reasonable that the position of the Master of the Five Emperors should be yours."

Wu Dang was very moved when he heard this and immediately agreed.

After arranging his own disciples, Tongtian turned to the registered disciples and said, "Right now, the human race is booming but not yet prosperous. If you make friends with the human race and do something beneficial to the human race, you will definitely get a lot of merit. You can also seize the opportunity to go to the human race to plan some merit. Having merit to protect your body will be beneficial to your subsequent cultivation or to overcoming the tribulation after your cultivation breakthrough."

The disciples' eyes lit up. No one who could comprehend the Great Dao of Shangqing was a fool. They all understood the connotation of Tongtian's words. However, some registered disciples were willing to help the human race to plan merits, while some registered disciples were unwilling to do so.

After coming out of the Biyou Palace, Lingya Xian, one of the seven attendants, walked up to Qiushou Xian and Jinguang Xian and asked, "Two junior brothers, are you willing to help the human race?"

"I don't want to!" said the Qiushou Immortal without hesitation.

Jin Guangxian also shook his head in objection.

"I don't know what the teacher is thinking. Even if the human race becomes the protagonist of the world, they are just like ants. They are born to be fed by blood like us. Now the teacher not only forbids us to eat humans, but also asks us to help the human race. The teacher is really confused." Lingyaxian said in a low voice.

"Brother, what you said is exactly what I thought." Jin Guangxian said.

"Me too!" the Qiushou Immortal echoed.

"All three of you shut up! How can you talk about the teacher behind his back?" Wu Yunxian, who happened to be passing by, said with a cold face.

Hearing Wuyunxian's voice, Chang'er Dingguangxian beside him turned his eyes and leaned over and said, "Brother, why are you so angry? The three junior brothers didn't insult the teacher, they just complained a few words! Don't you feel unfair in your heart?"

"What do you mean by that, Long-eared Dingguang Immortal?"

“Brother, just now the teacher gave the Master of the Human Emperor and the last Master of the Five Emperors to his direct disciples, and we, the Seven Immortals, didn’t get any.

Forget it if I don’t have it. After all, my current cultivation level is only the late Taiyi Golden Immortal. Senior brother, you have the cultivation level of the middle Daluo Golden Immortal, which is no worse than Senior Sister Wudang.

Besides, you followed the teacher before Sister Wudang, so it is reasonable that you should be the teacher of the Five Emperors." Before Chang'er Dingguangxian finished speaking, he felt a huge pressure coming from behind.

He turned his head subconsciously and saw the frosty-faced Holy Mother Wu Dang.

"Those who make irresponsible remarks about our master and instigate others among our fellow disciples should be punished!" After saying this, Holy Mother Wu Dang raised her hand and slapped the Long-eared Dingguang Immortal.

The magic power of the middle stage Daluo Jinxian was surging, and Chang'er Dingguangxian was knocked away without any room for resistance, spitting blood, and unable to get up again.

After the fight, Wu Dang Shengmu looked at Wu Yunxian and asked, "Junior brother, do you think so too? If you also feel that Master is biased, then we can just fight. Don't talk about Master behind his back."

Wu Yunxian waved her hands after hearing this: "Senior Sister Wu Dang has misunderstood. I have never felt that the teacher is partial to me. The teacher kept me by his side despite the pressure from the second uncle and taught me the Shangqing Dao. For me, the teacher's kindness is something I will never be able to repay even if I die. I will never have the slightest resentment towards the teacher."

After hearing what Wu Yunxian said, Wu Dang Shengmu's icy expression eased a lot: "I am very pleased that you think so. In the future, you and I will be the last Master of the Five Emperors."

"Sister, I don't mean that. Sister, you..."

"No need to say more, I have made up my mind." After saying this, Holy Mother Wu Dang turned her head and glanced at the Lingya Immortal, the Qiushou Immortal, and the Jinguang Immortal.

The three of them were caught by the gaze of the Holy Mother Wu Dang and subconsciously shrank their necks. They had just talked about the teacher.

Wu Dang Shengmu snorted coldly and said, "Let it go this time, but if I hear you talking about Master behind his back again, I will not let you off easily."

After saying this, Holy Mother Wu Dang nodded to Wu Yunxian and turned away.

Lingyaxian, Qiushouxian and Jinguangxian were all sweating profusely at this moment. They had not expected that Senior Sister Wudang would be so strong. They all regretted their previous boasting.

After this little episode, the disciples of Jiejiao who were willing to help the human race returned to the temple to pack up, then left Jin'ao Island and went to the human race to earn merit, including the Holy Mother Wu Dang.

The Holy Mother Wu Dang has always had a good impression of the human race, because her original form is the first white ape after the creation of the world, and white apes are originally human-like. Therefore, the Holy Mother Wu Dang is probably the most powerful person in the Jiejiao who has the greatest good impression of the human race.

Before, Holy Mother Wu Dang had the idea of helping the human race, but was delayed because she had to participate in the Holy Lotus Purifying World Array.

Now that the master has spoken, Holy Mother Wu Dang will naturally visit the human race.

Holy Mother Wu Dang did not go to Shouyang Mountain or the coast of the East China Sea. The human race in these two places was developing very well and did not need her help at all.

The place chosen by Holy Mother Wu Dang was the northern part of the ancient world.

The north is the gathering place of those demons who fled when the demon world was opened up, so it is extremely difficult for the human race to develop in the north.

After Holy Mother Wu Dang came to the north, she often encountered monsters attacking humans, and she would help them every time.

The Holy Mother Wu Dang is now in the middle stage of Daluo cultivation. Among the demons that escaped that year, there were only two quasi-saints except Kunpeng, and less than ten Daluo. With the strength of the Holy Mother Wu Dang, she can basically run rampant in the north.

These little monsters had no chance of winning against the Holy Mother Wu Dang at all and were easily suppressed by her.

As more and more human beings were saved by the Holy Mother Wu Dang, some human tribes who had received the grace of the Holy Mother Wu Dang began to make statues of her for worship, and the Holy Mother Wu Dang thus gained some power of faith.

The power of faith is very similar to merit. At first, Holy Mother Wu Dang did not notice anything unusual. She just thought that she had saved so many human beings and gained some merit. So Holy Mother Wu Dang gave away these "merits". However, as the amount of "merits" she gained increased, she felt something was wrong.

These "merits" seemed different from the merits she had gained before, they were not "pure" at all.

Later, by chance, after saving a human tribe, Holy Mother Wu Dang learned from them that many people in the human tribes in the northern land now worshipped her statue.

Only then did the Holy Mother Wu Dang realize that this was not merit at all, but the power of faith.

Nowadays, nearly one tenth of the human tribes in the north believe in Holy Mother Wu Dang. The power of faith Holy Mother Wu Dang is increasing, and a huge amount of power of faith is pouring in like a tide every day.

As the power of faith increased, Holy Mother Wu Dang could perceive more and more clearly that although these powers of faith contained endless power, the incense contained therein held a mystery.

"The power of faith is good, but the incense is poisonous and needs further refinement." Wu Dang frowned and muttered to himself.

The power of faith is basically divided into two parts. One part is the purest gratitude of living beings, which is no different from merit and can be directly absorbed. The other part is incense.

Incense can also be directly refined to improve strength, but the worldly energy in the incense contains all kinds of emotions of earthly beings, including desire, anger, obsession, etc.

These negative emotions are extremely poisonous to immortals, especially to pure immortals like Wu Dang Sheng Mu who are devoted to cultivation and never touch the mundane world. If one is not careful, they will pollute the pure body of the immortal. Even a trace of them will cause the immortal's cultivation to stagnate at best, or lead to possession of the devil and no recovery at worst.

During this period, Holy Mother Wu Dang's cultivation level improved rapidly with the help of the power of faith, but precisely because of this, she could more clearly understand the impact of incense on her.

A trace of worry flashed across the cold eyes of Holy Mother Wu Dang. She knew very well that the worldly air in the incense was like a thorn in the flesh. If it was not extracted quickly, it would probably become a huge obstacle on the path of cultivation.

Thinking of this, Holy Mother Wu Dang temporarily isolated the power of faith. She sat cross-legged, formed seals with her hands, and circulated the Great Way of Shangqing, trying to separate the worldly energy from the power of faith that she had just absorbed.

As the Shangqing Avenue operated, the worldly energy mixed with the majestic power of faith began to manifest as a faint red mist, spreading around her.

But soon, Holy Mother Wu Dang's expression became more and more ugly, because she could feel the complexity and chaos contained in this worldly atmosphere.

All the negative emotions of sentient beings, such as desire, anger, obsession, etc., are like an invisible cage that wants to trap her mind.

"Hmph, you think that mere worldly energy can hinder my path!" Holy Mother Wu Dang snorted and sped up the operation of the Shangqing Avenue.

Her whole body was shining brightly, competing with the red mist, but the earthly aura was extremely stubborn, and Saint Mother Wu Dang had been busy for a long time but with little success.

"How can I completely get rid of this worldly aura? Do I have to go back to Jin'ao Island to ask my master for help?" Holy Mother Wu Dang thought somewhat frustratedly.

Just when Holy Mother Wu Dang was at a loss, she passed by a human tribe whose people believed in Western religion.

Holy Mother Wu Dang suddenly remembered that her master once said that in order to condense the golden body in the Western religion, one must use the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, the most precious treasure of the West, to wash away the earthly air.

Holy Mother Wu Dang suddenly felt enlightened. A flash of inspiration came into her mind, and she decided to use the meditation method of the Shangqing Avenue, combined with the purification with spiritual water, to perhaps wash away the worldly air.

She did what she said. The Holy Mother Wu Dang immediately took out a drop of her treasured Three Lights Holy Water, turned it into mist with her magic power, and sprinkled it around. At the same time, she chanted something and cast the Shangqingqing Heart Mantra.

Under the dual effects of spiritual water and the Heart Purifying Mantra, the red mist gradually began to separate, but it still existed in the body and could not be eliminated. Just when Wu Dang was at a loss, a woman in a white dress and with an extraordinary temperament appeared in front of her.

"I thought it was a bald donkey from the Western religion who was competing with me for the power of faith here, but I didn't expect it was a fellow Taoist from the Jie Religion."

"Who are you?" asked Holy Mother Wu Dang with a look of vigilance.

She couldn't see through the cultivation level of the woman in front of her, but she was at least a quasi-saint. Holy Mother Wu Dang felt alarm bells going off in her heart.

The woman smiled and said, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist. I have no ill will towards you. My name is Youqin Yueyue. I am the registered disciple of Saint Bai Jing and the preacher of the Holy Lotus Sect to the human race."

As she spoke, You Qin Yueyue spread out her palms, and a sixth-grade white lotus appeared in her hands.

After seeing the sixth-grade pure white lotus, Holy Mother Wu Dang breathed a sigh of relief. As everyone knows, the symbol of the Holy Lotus Sect is the white lotus. There should be no one in the prehistoric world who would be so bold as to impersonate the title of a disciple of the Holy Lotus Sect.
