Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 253: The Tribulation of the Conferred Gods
"Hongmeng Purple Qi, what a big deal! Fellow Daoist Bai Jing, Tiandao Hongjun has put up a lot of chips in order to drag your Holy Lotus Sect into the water." Empress Pingxin conveyed a message to Bai Jing's incarnation with a somewhat gloating tone.

Bai Jing's incarnation was also a little surprised. He really didn't expect that Tiandao Hongjun would take out Nuwa's Hongmeng Purple Qi.

To be honest, Bai Jing was moved.

Family members know their own business. As for his seven direct disciples, there is no need to mention Xuanyu. He has now merged with his second incarnation to become Shennong, the Emperor of Earth, and achieved a saint of humanity.

Among the remaining six disciples, to be fair, only Kong Xuan and Yun Xiao have the chance to become saints on their own.

Kong Xuan practiced the Great Dao of the Five Elements, with the help of the Five-needle Pine. He has now reached the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal and is not far from completely controlling the Great Dao of the Five Elements.

Yunxiao is taking the path of creating her own avenue. This path is extremely difficult, but Yunxiao is walking on it smoothly. She has completed 80% of her avenue, which is no slower than Zulong back then.

Don't forget, the Ancestral Dragon Pearl is in Bai Jing's hands.

Bai Jing was able to calculate the speed at which the Ancestral Dragon created the Emperor's Avenue with the help of the Ancestral Dragon Pearl. Yunxiao's speed was definitely not slower than that of the Ancestral Dragon.

Zulong's path to becoming an emperor has been completed by 99% and only the final touch is left. If Zulong can unify the world and the dragon clan becomes the protagonist of heaven and earth, Zulong's path will be accomplished.

It’s a pity that this last step was absolutely impossible for the dragon clan at that time.

Neither Hongjun nor Luohou would allow such a thing to happen.

Therefore, the failure of Zulong's creation of the Tao was already doomed.

Yunxiao is different. She is a disciple of the Holy Lotus Sect and has Bai Jing protecting her. She will definitely succeed.

But apart from Kong Xuan and Yunxiao, Yuding, Guiling, Qiongxiao and Bixiao do not have the possibility of breaking through to the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian on their own, especially Bixiao who has already taken the path of beheading the three corpses, although the corpse-beheading magic treasure was a magic weapon specially refined for her by Bai Jing using the lotus seeds of the Pure World White Lotus, the Merit Golden Lotus, and the Karma Fire Red Lotus.

But it is not so easy to merge the three corpses.

But if there is Hongmeng purple energy, everything will be different. Bai Jing can even divide this Hongmeng purple energy into four parts to lay the foundation for the four disciples to become saints.

Just for this reason, Bai Jing is determined to obtain this wisp of primordial purple energy.

Besides, Bai Jing never wanted to leave the Holy Lotus Sect out from the beginning, otherwise why would he go to the trouble of helping the Jie Sect, and why did Dapeng return the yin and yang energies to his body?

To put it bluntly, Dapeng is the opportunity prepared by Bai Jing for the Holy Lotus Sect to participate in the Conferred God Tribulation. Naturally, Yuan Hong and Yang Jian, the two third-generation disciples of the Holy Lotus Sect, will also have to follow in the tribulation.

As for the six direct disciples, they were already in disaster and could not avoid it even if they wanted to.

As for the position of the Holy Lotus Sect, it would definitely stand on the side of Emperor Xin, who would be the contemporary Human Emperor at that time.

At this time, the saints of the Heavenly Dao were also surprised.

Because this Hongmeng purple energy is absolutely an unparalleled opportunity for them.

But the saints of the Heavenly Dao were not carried away by this opportunity. The reason was simple: this calamity of conferring gods was to be filled with the lives of their disciples.

Yuanshi Tianzun has always protected his shortcomings, Tongtian also protected his shortcomings, and the teachings of Jiejiao are to seize a ray of hope for all living beings, so how could he send his disciples to the list? As for the fact that Laozi only has one direct disciple, there are many people who listen to his teachings, but this person is not even considered an outer disciple of Taoism, let alone others.

The last two saints of the West, in their words, the West is barren and difficult to produce talents, and every disciple is precious. How could the two saints of the West possibly send their disciples to fill the list?

But no one wanted to give up the Hongmeng Purple Qi. After a while, Laozi took the lead in breaking the silence and said, "This Conferred God Conferment will involve many people. How should we deal with it?"

Yuanshi Tianzun looked solemn and said, "Since the teacher has given the order, we should follow the will of heaven, but there are few disciples in my Chan Sect, so I am afraid it is not appropriate to include too many of them in the list of gods this time."

Tong Tian Sect Master said, "Second brother, what you said is wrong. The matter of Conferred Gods is determined by fate. How can you and I change it? Moreover, this Conferred Gods Calamity is for your disciples to bear. How can it be justified that your disciples are not on the list?
Besides, how can the second brother's disciples compete for the Hongmeng Purple Qi if they are not on the list? The teacher just said that only the saint sect that obtains the last of the Four Imperials can obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi.

"Brother, are you voluntarily giving up the Hongmeng Purple Qi by not letting your disciples be on the list? If so, I, Jiejiao, can help you solve this urgent problem."

Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly and said, "Tongtian, your disciples are just a bunch of rabble, most of them are born from eggs, and have hair and horns. How can they be qualified to become saints? If such creatures with low roots are allowed to become saints, we saints will lose face.

On the other hand, my disciples are all virtuous and virtuous immortals with deep roots and virtues. I can choose one of them to become one of the Four Imperial Gods, and the rest of the disciples should not be included in the list. "

Tongtian's face was full of sarcasm when he heard Yuanshi Tianzun's words.

Yuanshi Tianzun became more unhappy when he saw Tongtian’s expression.

Just as he was about to speak, Laozi took the lead and sighed, "I only have Xuandu among my disciples. If he makes the list, even if he achieves the Four Imperials, it will be considered as breaking the inheritance. This Hongmeng Purple Qi is useless to me, so I won't bother with it."

After hearing Lao Tzu's words, the other saints showed surprised expressions, but soon they felt that Lao Tzu's words were not wrong. After all, although Lao Tzu founded Taoism, he only accepted Xuan Du as his personal disciple. If Xuan Du was on the list, wouldn't Lao Tzu's heritage be continued?

The inheritance has been broken, what's the point of having Hongmeng Purple Qi? It's better to be outside the calamity from the beginning and not get involved.

Zhunti also hurriedly responded: "My Western Sect has very few disciples, and they live in seclusion in the Western Land. They are also not in the disaster. This Hongmeng purple energy has nothing to do with my Western Sect."

The two saints from the West actually did not want the Hongmeng purple energy, which surprised the other saints.

But soon, they understood the cause and effect.

Among the disciples of the Western Religion, the strongest is only in the middle stage of Quasi-Saint. Even with the Hongmeng Purple Qi, they cannot become saints. After all, these two saints made great aspirations and became saints by borrowing merits from the Heavenly Dao. It is impossible for other disciples of the Western Religion to become saints.

If that’s the case, why bother fighting over it?
Laozi was also happy that they did not get involved, so he said without hesitation: "Yes, but if the Western believers come to the East during the catastrophe, they will not be able to escape this catastrophe."

Zhunti was about to make some excuses, but Jieyin said, "Okay, I'll do as you say, brother."

Seeing Jie Yin agreed, Yuanshi Tianzun spoke up and said, "I still say the same thing. All my disciples are virtuous and true immortals, so they should not be on the list. Tongtian, you have many disciples, but they are not talented enough to be immortals. It's a good opportunity to be on the list so that you can achieve immortality.

Of course, your disciples are not lucky enough to take this last position of the Four Imperial Gods, so you just leave it vacant for someone who is destined to take it."

In the past, Master Tongtian would have been furious, but after forming an alliance with Bai Jing, Bai Jing had already analyzed the relationship between the Three Pure Ones with Tongtian, and Tongtian had already seen through it.

Therefore, Yuanshi Tianzun's harsh words did not make Tongtian feel angry. What Tongtian was more concerned about at this time was the Conferred God Tribulation. This Conferred God Tribulation required so many lives to fill the list. Among the saints, only their Jiejiao had so many disciples, although Tongtian Mingjinling had cleared out many disciples because of the four beasts Qiushouxian's perverse behavior.

But even so, there are still more than 6000 disciples of Jiejiao, so this calamity of the Conferred Gods will most likely befall Jiejiao.

However, although he understood, Yuanshi Tianzun's words were hard to hear, so Tongtian refuted: "Second brother, what you said is wrong. The teacher just said that this calamity is caused by the disciples of the Chan Sect who committed the killing precepts. Why do you want our disciples to be on the list?
Besides, the destined person mentioned by the second brother is not you, the Nanji Immortal of the Chan Sect, right? I heard that the second brother has been seeking the last position of the Four Heavenly Emperors for the Nanji Immortal, but this Nanji has no respect for his elders and repeatedly contradicts the Heavenly Emperor personally appointed by the master. Is such a virtuous person worthy of the position of the Four Heavenly Emperors?"

"Tongtian, please stop slandering me. When did Nanji contradict Haotian?"

"Second brother is really a forgetful person. Do you want me to help you recall?" After saying that, Tongtian was about to summon the long river of time.

"Enough! This is not the time to talk about this. You keep making excuses like this, but I don't know when the List of Gods can be filled!" The indifferent voice of Tiandao Hongjun sounded.

Laozi sighed inwardly upon hearing this, then stepped forward and said, "Master, please allow me to report. Conferring a God is a major event for the three religions and cannot be decided hastily. We need some time to decide on the candidate."

Yuanshi Tianzun also said: "That's right."

Tongtian also said: "This is very good."

Tiandao Hongjun did not force them any further, and said calmly: "In this case, you will gather at Zixiao Palace again in three hundred years to sign the Conferred God List!"

After saying this, Tiandao Hongjun turned around and glanced at Bai Jing's incarnation.

Bai Jing's incarnation just smiled slightly and did not make any other movements.

The saints said in unison: "We will follow the teacher's instructions."

Tiandao Hongjun nodded, waved his hand and sent everyone out of Zixiao Palace.

After leaving Zixiao Palace, all the saints dispersed.

Niangniang Pingxin flew to the fairy island of Yingzhou, while the incarnations of Nuwa and Bai Jing disappeared directly.

After the saints returned to their respective temples from Zixiao Palace, the Three Pure Ones all felt heavy in their hearts.

Taiqingtian, after Taiqing Laozi returned, he immediately summoned Master Xuandu to the Tushita Palace.

Laozi looked solemn, and said slowly to Xuandu: "Every time Xuandu leaves, there will be a killing calamity of gods and immortals. This is another calamity. All three sects of the Xuan Sect are in the calamity. You are the only one under my master. From now on, you should not go to the lower world again, so as not to be contaminated by the evil spirit and fall into the calamity."

When Master Xuandu heard the word "calamity", he could not help but shudder. He had experienced the calamity of wizards and demons and knew how terrifying it was.

Xuan Du then bowed respectfully and responded, "Disciple will obey the master's order."

On Mount Kunlun, Yuanshi Tianzun was also full of worries. He summoned all the disciples of the Chan Sect and first mentioned that Haotian had gone to Zixiao Palace to complain, saying that some disciples of the three religions did not abide by the etiquette of the Taoist tradition, did not know the hierarchy, and trampled on the laws of heaven. He begged the Taoist ancestor to order the disciples of the three religions to serve as officials in heaven for his use.

When the people of the Chan sect heard that Lord Haotian went to the Zixiao Palace to file a complaint, they all looked disdainful.

Guang Chengzi was the first to speak: "That Haotian is just a Taoist boy who lives in the Heaven Court according to the List of Conferred Gods. How can he be worthy of being an official in Heaven?"

Chi Jingzi also said: "Big Brother, what you said is absolutely right. Our Chan Sect is a great sect of saints. How can our disciples be easily controlled by the Heavenly Court?"

All the Golden Immortals also felt that what the two senior brothers said made sense and nodded.

Yuanshi Tianzun frowned and coughed lightly, and the people of the Chan Sect immediately quieted down. Yuanshi then changed his expression and said seriously: "You must not underestimate this matter. This time, the Taoist master issued an edict, saying that a new catastrophe will come in the future, and the disciples of the three sects of Xuanmen are all in the catastrophe.

Daozu wants to use this catastrophe to start the Conferred Gods, and divide the gods into eight groups for the Heavenly Court to command. This Conferred Gods catastrophe is because you committed the killing precepts in the dispute between the Human Emperors two times before the Multiverse Conference, and you need to go down the mountain to face the catastrophe. This is the whole cause and effect.

After this catastrophe is over, Daozu will bestow the Hongmeng Purple Qi, which is a holy position. It will definitely cause huge disputes, and even some old quasi-saints will get involved to try to survive. "

After hearing what Yuanshi Tianzun said, all the disciples looked at each other, feeling terrified.

Guang Chengzi was the teacher of the Emperor of Man and the eldest senior brother of the Chan Sect. He stepped forward and asked, "Teacher, how should we deal with this catastrophe?"

Yuanshi Tianzun pondered for a moment, and then said: "Follow the will of heaven, and do not go against it. To deal with this disaster, I have the following arrangements:
First, you should practice diligently, improve your strength, and strive for excellence in the use of Taoism, magic and magic weapons. You must know that Taoism, magic and magic are the foundation of our existence, and magic weapons are the key to defeating the enemy at the critical moment. Only by continuous research can you have the power to protect yourself in the catastrophe.

Second, accumulate merits. During this period, you can go down the mountain to exorcise demons, save people, and accumulate blessings. This is in accordance with the way of heaven and is also a way to increase your vitality.

Third, pay attention to the dynamics of various forces, know yourself and the enemy to find opportunities for survival. In the prehistoric world, the forces of various parties are intricate and complex. Only by understanding their movements can we find opportunities in crises.

If any disciple disobeys the instructions and acts recklessly, he will not be forgiven."

Upon hearing this, the Twelve Golden Immortals lowered their heads to show that they dared not.

At this time, Randeng, who had remained silent, spoke up: "May I ask, Master, how will other saints and sects arrange this catastrophe?"

"Brother's Taoism only has one disciple, Xuandu, so he should not be in trouble. Jiejiao has many disciples, good and bad, so it is inevitable that many people will be on the list. Jiejiao's method is to recruit many disciples, and although it is magnificent, it is inevitable that there will be some impure ones among them.

Although this great calamity of the Conferred Gods was caused by you and you are required to go through it, in your opinion, this great calamity will mainly fall on the Jie Religion and will be a huge test for the Jie Religion.

As for the Western religion, as long as they don't actively get involved, they will not be involved in this catastrophe. However, the two Western saints have always been eyeing our East covetously. This Conferred God Catastrophe is a good opportunity for them to take action. They will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to gain benefits. You must beware of their calculations."

"What about the Holy Lotus Sect?" Huang Long asked weakly.

Yuan Shi was silent for a moment and then sighed, “The Holy Lotus Sect is also in the calamity, but with Bai Jing’s means, it is easy to protect his disciples.

You don't need to worry about the Holy Lotus Sect for now, just focus on how to deal with the Jie Sect and the Western Sect."

"I will obey Master's decree."
