The Jade Emperor is the Holy Saint. If he is willing, he can break through at any time and step into the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.
Therefore, as long as the situation is clear, the Jade Emperor can return immediately and pass to Jiang Chen.
The Jade Emperor was originally willing to pass the throne to Jiang Chen, but now Daozu has recognized it. From then on, Jiang Chen's position as Emperor of Heaven can be said to be unshakable.
Of course, this kind of thing is nothing to Jiang Chen. After all, based on his achievements, the position of Emperor of Heaven will be his sooner or later.
Regardless of whether Daozu is willing or not, he must recognize Jiang Chen's status and achievements. He has no power to stop Jiang Chen from becoming the Emperor of Heaven. Therefore, directly recognizing Jiang Chen is the best choice for Daozu.
To avoid causing trouble in the future and making everyone look bad.
Jiang Chen has become a trend and will definitely become the true Emperor of Heaven in the future. No matter who it is, even if it is Heavenly Dao, anyone who dares to stop him will be crushed to pieces.
“There’s something wrong with Gonggong!”
Jiang Chen frowned and told Daozu everything about what happened to Gonggong and the hidden dangers of the Buzhou Mountain site.
Immediately, I saw Daozu's face darken, and he glared at Saint Taiqing with some displeasure.
"This disciple is guilty, please ask Master to punish you."
Seeing this, the Taiqing Saint did not dare to defend himself and quickly bowed down to apologize.
Seeing this, the other saints also followed suit and apologized: "We made an oversight and hope that Master will forgive me."
What else is there to say? There was such a big flaw in the Buzhou Mountain site, and even Gonggong was plotted by the Demon God of Chaos. For such a big thing, the six saints, as the guardians of the ancient world, did not respond to it.
Not aware of anything.
From a minor point of view, they failed to investigate, and from a major point of view, they were derelict in their duties. In any case, the saints must be responsible for this matter.
Thinking of the consequences of this matter, Taoist Hongjun looked at the saints with a bit of anger.
If Jiang Chen hadn't uncovered this matter today and waited for the hidden dangers at the Buzhou Mountain ruins to erupt, then the Great Desolate World would have been really in danger.
As the guardians of the ancient world, the six saints couldn't even detect such a big hidden danger in the ancient world, so what's the use of them?
From this incident, when thinking about the actions of these six saints since they became saints, Patriarch Hongjun couldn't help but have the idea of replacing them.
Before the birth of the saint, it can be said that the prehistoric world was prosperous. But since the birth of the saint, the prehistoric world has begun to decline.
The reason for the continuous decline of the ancient world was precisely caused by the saint who was the guardian.
The appearance of the saints not only failed to protect the ancient world, but actually harmed the ancient world. This made Taoist Hongjun have a doubt. Is the appearance of the saints a bit redundant? Should they be abolished?
"I'm very disappointed in you."
Feeling extremely disappointed, Patriarch Hongjun lost all his anger and spoke to the six people in an extremely calm tone.
"Master, forgive me, we are guilty!"
Taoist Hongjun showed such calmness that the Six Saints panicked, and they hurriedly asked Taoist Master Hongjun again. They knew Taoist Hongjun very well, and knew that if he showed an angry look, everyone would still be able to be saved.
On the contrary, the calmer Daozu Hongjun behaves, the more disappointed he is. He already thinks that everyone is hopeless and is too lazy to get angry.
"Think carefully, since you became saints, what contributions have you made to the ancient times, and what disasters have you prevented?"
"Think clearly before you answer me."
Daozu Hongjun still asked calmly.
"this……"
When the saints heard this, they immediately stopped talking.
During the Lich Tribulation, although the Six Saints were able to repair the world, they were unable to prevent the outbreak of the Lich decisive battle, or in other words, failed to protect the ancient world when the two clans were at war. This was already a heinous crime.
All subsequent actions are just atonement, so what merit is there?
As for the future, the saints would not dare to say anything. It cannot be said that they shattered the world for their own benefit.
Among the six saints, it can only be said that Nuwa is the least guilty, but she cannot be said to be innocent. As a saint, no matter what the reason is, failing to protect the prehistoric world is the greatest original sin.
"Taiqing, you'd better give up your position as the acting master of the Xuan Sect, and be the leader of your human religion with peace of mind."
The Six Saints stopped talking, but Taoist Hongjun did not stop. He was seen saying to the Taiqing Saint who was closest to him.
With just one word, Taozu removed Taiqing Sage from his position as the leader of Xuanmen. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to his prestige.
From now on, it will be difficult for the great practitioners of Xuanmen to respect him as usual.
After punishing Saint Taiqing, Taoist Hongjun did not punish other saints, but said to Jiang Chen:
"I know that the saints are guilty, but we still need their help to deal with the Chaos Demon God. Let them take the blame first and perform meritorious service. After the Chaos Demon God is defeated, it will not be too late to punish them."
Even if there are ten thousand saints, they are still the strongest fighting force in the ancient world, and they are indispensable in dealing with the Chaos Demon God.
Therefore, even if Taoist Hongjun really wanted to replace the saint, he could not do so at this time.
No matter how serious the crime is, it must be dealt with after rebuilding Buzhou Mountain and dealing with the Chaos Demon God.
As for why Taiqing Saint was punished, firstly, it was to give the saints a warning and let them restrain their characters.
The second reason is that Saint Taiqing, as the head of all saints and the acting head of Xuanmen, has to take the main responsibility in these matters, so naturally he cannot let it go lightly.
To put it simply, Saint Taiqing is the boss and has the greatest power. If something goes wrong now, the main responsibility will of course fall on him.
"What Ancestor Dao said is that the most important thing right now is to deal with the Chaos Demon God."
Jiang Chen nodded in agreement. At this time, even if he was dissatisfied with certain saints, he could not add insult to injury, because fighting against the Chaos Demon God was indeed inseparable from them.
"Your Majesty, in order to reshape Buzhou Mountain, apart from resisting the Chaos Demon God, what else do we need to do?"
After knowing the true situation of the Buzhou Mountain ruins, Taoist Hongjun knew that the reconstruction of Buzhou Mountain could not be delayed any longer, otherwise big problems would really arise.
Therefore, no matter what Jiang Chen needs, as long as he can reshape Buzhou Mountain, he will fully support it.
"I have almost prepared all the materials needed to reshape Buzhou Mountain. However, the resources needed for my personal cultivation are indeed lacking, and I need the help of Dao Ancestor."
Taoist Hongjun opened his mouth and asked him to raise conditions as much as he wanted. So why did Jiang Chen have any hesitation? He would naturally say whatever he needed.
As for the reshaping of Buzhou Mountain, Jiang Chen was previously worried that the secret would be leaked and did not dare to speak out. But now, the most powerful people from the ancient world are here, so there is no need for such a thing.
Even if they didn't say it, the Chaos Demon God could guess that something big was going to happen in the prehistoric era, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people gathering here.
"Say, it's rare for His Majesty to speak. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to satisfy you."
Daozu Hongjun smiled and said very generously. When he was young, he valued treasures very much, so much so that most of the innate spiritual treasures in the ancient world fell into his hands.
But since he became enlightened, his thoughts have become dull, and his attitude towards magic weapons is no different from that of weeds on the roadside. He casually scattered them away, leaving only the most important ones.
"I need the God-killing Spear in the hands of Dao Ancestor. This treasure is extremely important to me and is related to my future practice."
"In addition, the southern flaming flag in the hands of Saint Taiqing, the eastern green lotus flag in the hands of the second saint in the west, the golden lotus of merit, and the black lotus of the inner demon of the devil... are all things I urgently need."
Jiang Chen was not polite and told him all the treasures he needed.
And when his voice fell, although Daozu Hongjun's expression did not change, the expressions of several people who might have been named by him all darkened.
Especially the two sages of the West, the Oriental Green Lotus Flag and the Nine-grade Merit Golden Lotus are the most sacred treasures of Buddhism. Jiang Chen dared to ask for them. He really deceived the sages too much!
"The treasures your Majesty needs are all related to the Chaos Green Lotus. Are you reshaping the Chaos Green Lotus?"
Taoist Hongjun was well-informed. After hearing the treasure Jiang Chen asked for, he immediately guessed his purpose and couldn't help but ask.
"Daozu is right. I am reshaping the Chaos Green Lotus, so I am searching everywhere for treasures related to it."
"I have already found the rest, but these are the only ones that I can't find, so I can only ask Dao Ancestor to take action."
Jiang Chen also knew that the directions of the treasures he mentioned were too obvious, and anyone with some knowledge could guess his purpose, so he did not hide it and spoke directly.
Not long ago, Jiang Chen had acquired the twelfth-grade Pure World Treasure Lotus from his senior sister Wudang Holy Mother at the cost of an innate treasure.
Well, this innate treasure will not be handed over to Our Lady of Wudang until after the world has been reshaped. However, Our Lady of Wudang did not suffer any loss. Jiang Chen gave her a great magical power fruit as interest.
Although the value of the Tao Fruit of the Great Supernatural Power is not as good as that of the Twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus, if it is just used as interest, Wudang Holy Mother will undoubtedly make a lot of money.
"I see."
"No wonder your Majesty's cultivation has progressed so quickly."
Taoist Hongjun became convinced and blamed Chaos Qinglian for Jiang Chen's rapid progress in cultivation.
Of course, he said that, but no one knew what he was thinking except himself.
To Jiang Chen, Daozu Hongjun's words seemed to be specifically addressed to the saints and those with great supernatural powers from ancient times.
The purpose is to tell them that Jiang Chen is where he is today, thanks to the help of Chaos Qinglian, and it is also because of the favor of the great god Pangu. So don't think too much, thinking that there is a big secret hidden in Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen rose so quickly that many people believed that he was the reincarnation of the Chaos Demon God.
Although the saint didn't think so, he still felt that he had a big secret and often investigated him secretly.
What Daozu Hongjun said today was an endorsement for Jiang Chen and explained everything about him.
Cultivation is progressing quickly? With the help of a treasure like Chaos Qinglian, can it not be faster?
It would be more normal to have the protection of the great god Pangu. As we all know, the Chaos Green Lotus is the companion spiritual treasure of the great god Pangu. It is by devouring the origin of the green lotus that the supreme foundation of the great god Pangu was created.
But because of this, the origin of Chaos Qinglian was greatly damaged, and the chance to transform was completely lost.
For this reason, Great God Pangu felt guilty and took special care of the reincarnation of Chaos Qinglian. Isn't this a normal thing?
That's right, the reincarnation of Chaos Qinglian.
At this moment, after hearing what Taoist Hongjun said, the saints thought they understood. They felt that Taoist was hinting to them that Jiang Chen was the reincarnation of Chaos Qinglian.
Thinking about it this way, everything that happened to Jiang Chen made sense.
The reincarnation of Chaos Qinglian must be treated like a biological son in front of the Great God Pangu. No amount of special treatment is too much.
It takes three hundred years to become a great supernatural power, and five hundred years to become a saint. Is this fast? For others, it is indeed very fast, incredibly fast.
But for the reincarnation of Chaos Qinglian, this was too slow. He was not the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian at birth, and everyone expressed disapproval.
After figuring this out, the saints, especially Yuanshi Tianzun, looked at Jiang Chen with a lot of relief.
Although he was transformed from the soul of the great god Pangu, compared with the Chaos Qinglian who gave birth to the great god Pangu, he was not even the slightest bit worse.
It's normal to be unable to defeat Jiang Chen.
In other words, it is precisely because he is the soul of Pangu that he cannot defeat Jiang Chen.
The Great God Pangu all originated from the Chaos Green Lotus. As the soul of the Great God Pangu, isn't it normal for him to be defeated by Jiang Chen?
Thinking about it this way, Yuanshi Tianzun undoubtedly felt a lot better mentally. It's not that I can't beat Jiang Chen, but that I was born to be defeated by him.
Even if there was nothing he could do, he would do nothing about it.
Seeing the gazes of the saints gradually becoming strange, Jiang Chen almost guessed what they were thinking, but he did not explain it.
Let them continue to misunderstand like this, but it will save him trouble. Moreover, if Jiang Chen takes the initiative to explain, wouldn't it be in vain that Daozu covered him up?
A saint would think that Jiang Chen is the reincarnation of Chaos Qinglian, but Taoist Hongjun would definitely not think so. Because a strong man like him must know that there is no possibility of Chaos Qinglian being reincarnated.
It is still possible for Chaos Spiritual Treasures to transform, but Chaos Treasures are absolutely impossible because they are too powerful. After transforming, their strength will even far exceed that of the Chaos Demon God.
Therefore, subject to the Great Dao, the Chaos Treasure cannot even be spiritually born, let alone transform and reincarnate. Don't even think about it.
Daozu Hongjun said this just because he wanted to find an explanation for Jiang Chen's abnormality, so as to prevent the powerful men from the ancient times from being suspicious of him.
…
Daozu Hongjun was extremely generous and took out the God-killing Spear and the Heart Demon Black Lotus. He handed them to Jiang Chen and said:
"The God-killing Spear and the Inner Demon Black Lotus are with me. When I defeated the Demon Ancestor, I kept these two treasures. If your Majesty wants them, I will give them to you."
"As for the flaming flag rising from the ground in the south..."
Having said this, Taoist Hongjun stopped and turned to look at Saint Taiqing beside him.
