Chapter 8 Recommendation, Battle for the Throne(1/3)
Heaven, thirty-three days.
The southern sky tilted, the heavenly palace trembled, and a corner of it collapsed, alarming the High God of Xuan Qiong and the Jade Emperor.
"What happened?"
In the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor is sitting on the throne. He is tall and has a majestic face. At this time, due to the turmoil in the heavenly palace, some jade beads on the crown above his head shake and collide, making a soft sound.
The hall was filled with immortal energy, and the coiled dragon pillars were towering. The immortal gods standing on both sides felt the tremors of the heavenly palace, and couldn't help but look at each other, somewhat confused.
Could it be that there are demons invading heaven?
It doesn't look like it.
At this time, a golden-armored god general ran in in a hurry, knelt on one knee and said:
"Your Majesty, the sky pillar supporting the Antarctic tilted, and the Suzaku God almost manifested his true form, bleeding all over his body, causing turmoil in the heavenly palace."
"Suzaku God Lord?"
The Jade Emperor frowned slightly.
Green Dragon, White Tiger, Suzaku, and Xuanwu are the four great mythical beasts in ancient times, but they all made big mistakes. In order to atone for their sins, they transformed into pillars of heaven to support the heaven.
At the same time, they are also one of the foundations of the Heavenly Palace. Each of the ancient beasts has the strength of the Great Luo Peak. Together, they can set up a four-elephant formation to protect the Lingxiao Heavenly Palace.
The Jade Emperor asked with a cold face: "What's going on? The four divine beasts and heavenly kings have turned into pillars to support the heavens. How could they be injured?"
Who can attack Tianzhu when he is full? Even if a demon attacks the heaven, he will not choose Tianzhu as his target.
"This, this..."
The golden-armored god general hesitated, not knowing how to answer.
Several immortals who were responsible for monitoring the lower world or patrolling the heavenly palace also looked frightened, with cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads.
The Jade Emperor knew roughly what had happened at a glance. It was nothing more than nonsense. He stared at the immortals and said indifferently:
"Who has news to add?"
An immortal official immediately came out, knelt down, and kowtowed:
"Your Majesty, forgive me! The true spirit of the Suzaku God Lord left his true body, secretly went to the lower world, re-condensed his legal body, and proclaimed himself the Ghost Emperor of the Netherworld in Dongsheng Divine Continent, causing trouble in the lower world for thousands of years!"
"Then why didn't you report what you knew?"
"The Lord Suzaku is threatening me. If I tell you this, I will be doomed."
The immortal official cried.
He is just a little immortal official responsible for inspecting the buildings in the heaven, how dare he offend the Suzaku God.
The Jade Emperor snorted coldly and said: "Afraid of power, if you know what you know, you will not report it, you will cut off your immortal body, be demoted to reincarnation, reincarnate as a mortal, and never be employed!"
The immortal official cried and begged for mercy, but no one spoke for him. Several law enforcement officials immediately took him into custody.
Then, the Jade Emperor said again:
"Clairvoyance, tailwind...forget it, I'll see for myself what's going on."
He took out the "Haotian Mirror", and the mirror surface was covered with green light. Following a series of spells, chaos gave rise to all phenomena, manifesting the scene of Dongsheng Shenzhou and Nanyue Kingdom.
Pictures fly by and time flows backwards.
The Ghost Emperor massacred a country, millions of creatures suffered, and the demonic energy surged into the sky. Then, a Taoist appeared, and the true fire of the sun turned into a golden sea of fire and swept across the wasteland, burning up all the demonic energy. The Six Paths of Samsara Fist shook the heaven and earth, and shattered the body of the Suzaku God with one punch...
The immortals could also see these scenes and were moved one after another.
Looking at the domineering fist seal formed by six endlessly rotating chaotic worlds, the Jade Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"Who is this person?"
One punch destroyed the body of the Suzaku God Lord at the peak of Daluo. Such strength is rare in the three worlds.
In the main hall, the Tower King Li Jing, Nezha, the Barefoot Immortal, Jiuyao Xingjun and others were all a little surprised, but no one said a word.
Strange face, I don’t recognize it.
Taishang Laojun raised his eyebrows slightly, shook his fly whisk, walked out of the row, and said:
"Old Taoist has met this person several times. He is an overseas loose cultivator, Taoist Lord Xingluo. He has been living in seclusion and hiding from the world. He was active for a while in ancient times and suppressed many demons, gods and witches. He was one of the early Daluo sages of the human race. He was
Respected as the Divine Martial God."
Divine Martial God?
The Jade Emperor's eyes lit up, he thought for a moment and said:
"I think this man is quite brave and looks like a god of war. What do you think if you don't ask him to go to heaven and take up the position of Gou Chen?"
Taishang Laojun looked a little surprised, didn't answer, and stepped back.
"Your Majesty, this move is a bit inappropriate! This person has no merit and virtue, how can he hold the position of the Fourth Emperor?"
"Yes, he is just a casual cultivator. Even though he is strong, his virtue is not worthy of his qualifications, so he may not be able to hold a big position!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice. There are virtuous and true immortals in our heaven, and there are as many powerful people as stars. Why do we need to let an outsider inherit the position of the Four Emperors?"
Now the immortals couldn't sit still and came out one after another to express their opposition.
There were many opponents, at least a majority of them. Each one of them almost reduced Xingluo Taojun to nothing.
How important is the position of the Four Imperial Guards?
There are too many great gods eyeing this position. Some support Emperor Zhenwu, some support Jiutian Xuannv, and some support Taiyi to save Ku Tianzun...
Many immortal officials and Xingjun have actually been bribed a long time ago, and they are all talking for the big boss behind them.
At this time, an overseas loose cultivator jumped out, a washed-up human race power with no foundation at all in heaven. Who would support him?
"I think this person is pretty good."
The Third Prince Nezha had a baby face, and when he saw the image flashing by the Haotian Mirror, he was a little impressed, "What a powerful boxing technique, you guys will be jealous of your talents.
Why can't he be the Gou Chen Emperor? Ask yourselves, who can take this punch?"
All the immortals were immediately speechless.
Li Jing, the King of Pagoda, changed his face slightly, pulled him and scolded him:
"Nezha, don't talk nonsense!"
"snort."
Nezha crossed his arms and turned his little head away, "The position of the Four Imperial Guards was won through competition, not by default, nor by relying on some bullshit moral character. This man is invincible, why not give him a chance?"
He likes the god of war like Xingluo Daojun who takes life and death lightly and will do anything if he doesn't accept it.
So what if the Heavenly Suzaku God Lord dared to kill innocent people indiscriminately, and he would still blow them up with one punch.
On the golden throne of the Heavenly Emperor, the Jade Emperor smiled faintly and said:
"What Nezha said makes sense. Some time ago, Zhen Yuanzi of Wuzhuangguan also recommended this person to me. Today, I saw that he is indeed brave and has the demeanor of a military god. He can be a candidate for the position of Gouchen.
.”
Has Zhenyuan Immortal recommended it?
At this moment, the expressions of all the immortals in heaven changed slightly, their hearts were filled with ups and downs, and they had different thoughts.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although the ancestor of the Earth Immortal is not in the system of Heavenly Court, he still has great influence, and his recommendation naturally carries a certain weight.
At least Xingluo Daojun can be qualified as a candidate for the throne. Even if it is to give face to Zhenyuan Immortal, His Majesty will do this.
"Okay, let's go."
The Jade Emperor stood up and left.
He did not mention punishing the Lord Suzaku, because the Lord Suzaku was already seriously injured, and it was Tianzhu, so it was not easy to continue punishing him.
Of course, after recovering from his injuries, the life of Lord Suzaku was no longer as easy as before. Killing an entire country was also a serious crime in heaven, and the Queen Mother, who was in charge of criminal law and was notoriously strict in enforcing the law, would definitely punish him severely.
The immortals exited the Lingxiao Palace, gathered in small groups, and began to discuss in low voices.
"What do you think His Majesty is thinking about letting an outsider participate in the election for the position of the Four Imperial Guards?"
"Who knows, maybe it's because he is an outsider?"
There are many factions, large and small, in the Heavenly Court, and the water is very deep. In recent years, due to the fall of Emperor Gouchen, the struggle has become quite fierce.
To a certain extent, there is no difference between heaven and earth's courts and government agencies. No matter how mortals fight, immortals are also the same.
Even gods usually hold grudges more and fight harder because they have extremely long lifespans and endless energy.
It is difficult for mortals to fight for something for decades, and hatred will slowly let go over time. No struggle or hatred can last for hundreds of years.
When an immortal becomes bored, he may be torn apart for tens of thousands of years over a trivial matter...
This is why the Hunyuan Saints are so proud of themselves. If they lose their dignity, it is definitely a big deal.
Because once you lose face, you will be remembered by all the immortals forever, and it will be difficult to wash away it for thousands of years until the end of time.
You will always be a laughing stock, forever a dark history, until one day you find a way to regain your place.
After leaving Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor came to Yaochi.
