Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 256: We don’t have enough disciples
Now that Chen Xuan has said this, it means that Chen Xuan is willing to get involved in the Conferred God Tribulation. However, the degree of this must be properly grasped.

Otherwise, Chen Xuan would overturn the table in anger, and the rest of the show would be difficult.

Fearing that Chen Xuan might overturn the table, Hongjun naturally did not dare to ask for too much. He then spoke to Chen Xuan.

"When the Conferred God Tribulation begins, the human race will be divided into two camps. I wonder which side Fellow Daoist Qinglian is planning to support?"

Chen Xuan had never thought that Hongjun would actually give him the right to choose. He couldn't help but think to himself, "What would you do if I chose Xiqi?"

However, when Chen Xuan saw the smile on Hongjun's face, he understood Hongjun's true strength. He couldn't help but curse Hongjun in his heart, thinking that he was indeed a cunning guy.

The reason why Chen Xuan acted like this was because it was impossible for him to choose Xiqi. If Chen Xuan chose Xiqi, it would be equivalent to destroying humanity.

If Chen Xuan wanted to awaken the Dao at that time, he could only choose to fail and let Hongjun achieve the final victory.

After all, if he won, then the human race would no longer have a human emperor, only a son of heaven. The human race would also become believers raised by the heaven.

As for why Chen Xuan didn't think he could train Ji Fa to become the new generation of Human Emperor, the reason was that the Human Emperor's destiny was not in Ji Fa.

Ji Fa's destiny was to be the Son of Heaven, and no matter how hard Chen Xuan tried, he couldn't change it. Even if the Nine Netherworld took action and made Emperor Xin and Ji Fa's reincarnation consciousness swap identities, it couldn't change this outcome.

Because this is not the Heavenly Dao correcting anything, but the human race has to accept the test from itself. That was determined by the great god Pangu when he transformed into the primeval world.

Therefore, Chen Xuan had only one choice, which was to support the Shang Dynasty and let Emperor Xin destroy Xiqi so that the fate of the Human Emperor could continue to be passed on.

So on the surface Hongjun was asking Chen Xuan to choose, but in reality Chen Xuan had no choice at all. So he could only speak.

"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, why are you being so polite? You've clearly already made your choice, so why do you need me to choose for you?"

"As the saying goes, a gentleman helps others achieve their goals, so the choice of this Conferred God Tribulation is left to you, Fellow Daoist Hongjun."

After hearing this, Hongjun didn't hesitate and said, "Since Daoist Qinglian has said so much, let's go to Zixiao Palace and settle the matter, shall we?"

Chen Xuan shook his head and said, "I won't go to Zixiao Palace, but I will send my disciples to Zixiao Palace to sign the Canonization of Gods with the Three Religions of Heavenly Dao."

After hearing this, Hongjun nodded, bowed to Chen Xuan, said goodbye and went back to Zixiao Palace.

After Chen Xuan returned to Qinglian Island, he sent a message to the Six Saints of Qinglian Island, asking them to come to Qinglian Palace immediately.

In just a moment, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa and her sister, and Houtu arrived at the Qinglian Palace.

He first performed the master-disciple ceremony to Chen Xuan, and then sat on the six cushions they brought back from the Zixiao Palace.

Seeing that his six disciples were already seated, Chen Xuan spoke directly: "Brother Pangu split the chaos and transformed himself into the primitive world."

"Everything has been arranged for the prehistoric world. Every catastrophe is a test for the prehistoric world."

"Only after experiencing countless calamities will the prehistoric world be truly complete. At the same time, all six paths of the prehistoric world will awaken."

"There are only a thousand years left until the great calamity of the Conferred Gods, when humanity awakens. After a thousand years, humanity will face its final test, and the great calamity of the Conferred Gods will arrive as scheduled."

"Hongjun just came to see my master and decided on the Conferred God Tribulation with me. The Heavenly Dao Saints will support one side, and our Qinglian Island Saints will support the other." "Then both sides will use the battle for the human race's destiny to complete the Conferred God Tribulation. My master has chosen to support the orthodox human race, that is, the Human Emperor."

"Hongjun will support the puppet emperor cultivated by the Heavenly Dao to fight for the destiny of the human race. If we win, the human race will be the master of the human world among the three realms."

"But if we lose, the puppet emperor cultivated by the Heavenly Dao will seize the destiny of the human race. The human race will also lose the qualification to become the master of a world."

"Then the human race will be reduced to mere followers of the monks. Even if they want a storm, they will have to offer tribute to the gods."

Hearing Chen Xuan's words, Qinglian Island's Liu Sheng couldn't help but show anger. Tongtian even spoke directly to Chen Xuan.

"Master, why doesn't Hongjun do anything good? He always wants to dominate the world without even considering whether he has the ability to do so."

"Master, just tell me how to fight this Conferred God Tribulation. Kill all Four Heavenly Saints, or leave them some breath?"

Chen Xuan asked Tongtian to sit down first, and then continued, "This time, the battle is not about victory or defeat between you, but about the victory or defeat of our disciples."

"If the Heavenly Dao Saint wins, then it will be the Heavenly Dao that will confer the Godhood. If the Saint of my Qinglian Island wins, then it will be the Human Dao that will confer the Godhood."

"Whether it's the Heavenly Dao or the Human Dao, the 365 righteous gods and 84,000 stars and constellations required for the Conferred God List must not be missing a single one."

"So this Conferred God Tribulation is also known as the Beheading of Generals. This is because only those who died in the final battle are not eligible to be included in the list and punished."

"Now that the Conferred God List has appeared in the world, it represents the Heavenly Dao's Conferred God List. Therefore, when you arrive at the Zixiao Palace, do not sign your name on the Heavenly Book Conferred God List."

"In other words, who will be on the list and be canonized as a god during this Conferred God Tribulation? The fate of the disciples on both sides depends on their own luck, and it is not predetermined."

"Those with great luck can achieve immortality, living a carefree and joyful life, unrestrained by others. Those with even greater luck can achieve godhood, with their true spirits listed and canonized as gods."

"Although you are enshrined as a god and are immortal, your cultivation level will be limited. Your body is also shaped by the Conferred God List, and you will be bound by it for eternity."

"Secondly, after death, one can only enter the six realms of reincarnation and cultivate again. Those who do not cultivate merit and luck will be reduced to ashes during the Conferred God Tribulation."

Hearing Chen Xuan's words, Tongtian couldn't help but say: "Master, our Taoist disciples are only a dozen or so people."

"Even if we include Junior Sister Nuwa's disciples, there are only a few dozen of them. How can we possibly meet the 365 righteous gods required for the Conferred God List?"

"Not to mention, there are still 84,000..."

Before Tongtian could finish his words, Yuanshi Tianzun hit him on the head with the Sanbao Ruyi.

"What's wrong with your brain? What we need to do is to use the disciples of the three Tiandao religions to fill the list of gods. We should not let our own disciples be listed as gods."

Tongtian finally understood, and said with a smile: "I thought that when humanity conferred gods, we had to use our own people."

"After all, we can't let them enjoy the good fortune of the human race for nothing. After all this time, it turns out I was the one who made the mistake."
