Ever since he tasted the delicious colorful spirit fish at Qi Yuan's last time, Gao Yan has never forgotten the taste.
Seeing these spiritual fish again at this time, Gao Yan couldn't help but think that since Senior Sister Jin Ling had already planned to go to heaven, she would definitely not have time to take care of these spiritual fish.
If I take this opportunity to steal some... Well, if I take this opportunity to ask my senior sister for a few, will she agree?
When Xin Huan saw Gao Yan land on the ground, he stared at the spiritual fish in the colorful lotus pond with bright eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.
He clearly remembered that his master-uncle had encouraged him to secretly catch a few colorful spiritual fish, but he was a little timid at the time and did not dare to offend his master, so he did not take action.
Now it seems that this uncle is obviously obsessed with the spirit fish in the pond, otherwise the light would not shine in his eyes.
"Master-uncle...Master-uncle..."
Xin Huan called out twice in a row, and Gao Yan finally came back to his senses, looking away from the alluring spirit fish and looking at Xin Huan.
"What, you asked me for something?"
Gao Yan glared at Xin Huan dissatisfied.
This kid, I just asked him to catch a few fish secretly, it's not like I didn't deny him any benefits.
As a result, this boy turned around and told Senior Sister Jin Ling about the incident, which caused him to stay away from Senior Sister Jin Ling for a long time.
Xin Huan said helplessly: "Disciple is fine, but my master is waiting in the cave. Do you think you should go in first and say hello to my master?"
Only then did Gao Yan wake up and quickly patted his huge belly. The expression on his face changed instantly and he said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, you should go and say hello to your senior sister first. I said Xin Huan, why don't you hurry up and take my uncle with you?"
After entering the cave, why are you lingering here?"
"..."
Xin Huan was speechless.
Am I just messing around? It's obvious that you, the old man, are drooling over this pond of spiritual fish as soon as you come here. Can you blame me for this?
However, he had some understanding of this great uncle and knew that Gao Yan's temperament was like this.
In addition to his seniority and status, he did not dare to refute, so he could only say: "It's my disciple's fault. Please ask my uncle to follow me in."
With that said, Xin Huan turned around and led the way.
Qi Yuan watched from the side and couldn't stop laughing. Master Gao Yan is indeed a member of our generation!
Gao Yan chuckled and winked at Qi Yuan. The two of them walked in, chatting in a low voice.
Several people have gathered in the cave, all of whom plan to go to heaven to become gods and occupy a divine position.
Of course, most of these people, except for Our Lady of Jinling and Wen Zhong, just chose an idle priesthood.
In fact, their thoughts are similar to Qi Yuan's, they just want to receive a god status in heaven and accept the protection of heaven.
As the saying goes, it is better to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade. From now on, Heaven will be the master of the three realms. Having a name in Heaven will definitely avoid a lot of trouble.
Not all Jie Jiao disciples are confident that they can live a good life in the primitive world. Although practicing alone is definitely more carefree, if you accidentally provoke some powerful enemies, your own safety may not be guaranteed.
In fact, most of those who are willing to go to heaven to receive the divine title have many enemies outside. In the past, the sect was very powerful, and those enemies provoked by them did not dare to do anything to them, but it will be hard to say in the future.
That's why these disciples are willing to serve in heaven.
In the cave, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit sat in the middle, looking as majestic as ever.
Even with Gao Yan's usual playful and smiling temperament, he felt a little scared when he saw the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit.
What's more, he was just trying to trick those spirit fish outside her cave, which made Gao Yan even more guilty. He didn't know if this senior sister had discovered his little thoughts.
"I've met Senior Sister Jin Ling."
Gao Yan did not dare to neglect and quickly gave a salute.
Qi Yuan also saluted: "Disciple pays homage to Master Jin Ling."
Jin Ling nodded slightly and stared at Gao Yan with a half-smiling look, making Gao Yan feel guilty.
He laughed dryly, not daring to mention asking for some spiritual fish from the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, and quickly ran to the side and sat down.
It's just that the futon seemed a bit small compared to his huge buttocks, and after he pushed it down, it disappeared immediately.
After a while, several more Jie Jiao disciples arrived, and after greeting everyone, they sat down one after another.
Wen Zhong calculated the number of people, stood up and reported to the Jinling Holy Mother: "Master, all the fellow disciples who are going to the Qishan Conferred God Platform have arrived."
"Um!"
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit nodded, raised her eyes and glanced at everyone. Suddenly, everyone who was still discussing in low voices sat upright.
"Junior brothers and several nephews, since we are all willing to serve in Heavenly Court, we should take care of each other in Heavenly Court in the future. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me. If I can't solve it, there are all my fellow disciples.
Anyone can help.”
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit first said with a smile, and then changed the topic and her expression became serious: "However, there is something I want to say beforehand. Heaven is not a prehistoric place, and it is impossible to let you be like in the past.
They are at ease in their respective caves.
Since you have gone to heaven, you must abide by the rules and regulations of heaven. Otherwise, if you make a big mistake by ignoring the rules of heaven, even if I want to save you, I will be powerless."
Her words were a warning to everyone in advance. In the past, the immortals of the Jie Sect were free and unrestrained. Even if some disciples did evil things, no one would take care of them, or they would not dare to take care of them when they saw that the Jie Sect was too powerful.
But now that all the saints are about to retire to heaven, heaven rules the three realms, and heaven has strict rules and regulations. You can no longer bring your past bad habits to heaven, otherwise you will cause trouble for yourself.
Although the position that the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit is about to take over is noble, she cannot protect her fellow disciples in everything. Otherwise, how can the majesty of Heaven be maintained?
Gao Yan was the first to take the lead and echoed: "Senior sister, don't worry, we know better and we won't mess around."
The other Jiejiao disciples also nodded quickly.
These people are not stupid. They go to Heaven themselves. To put it bluntly, they are just looking for a backer that can protect them and give them a safe cultivation environment. How can they violate the rules of heaven randomly.
Mother Jin Ling glanced at Gao Yan, but she was the most worried about him.
Others may not dare to mess around, but this junior brother dares to steal the colorful fish kept in the pond in front of her cave. Maybe he will do something else in the future.
But fortunately, he only made small mistakes, not big mistakes. He just had a problem with being greedy, so it wasn't really a big deal.
Seeing that everyone understood the meaning of her words, Holy Mother Jinling nodded with satisfaction, her expression softened, and she chatted with everyone in a pleasant manner.
When Gao Yan saw the calm expression on the face of the Holy Mother Jin Ling, he suddenly felt courageous and his evil intentions started to rise again. He said in a calm tone: "Senior Sister Jin Ling, you see, we are all going to serve in the Heavenly Court, and then Master Jin'ao Island will also be moved."
Go to Tianwaitian, those spiritual fish you raised in the pond, or..."
Before she finished speaking, Holy Mother Jin Ling's face sank. She pretended not to hear Gao Yan's words and stood up and said, "Okay, it's getting late. Let's set off for the Qishan Conferred God Platform."
With that said, she took the lead and walked out. When she passed Gao Yan, she didn't even look at him.
This guy really cares about eating and not fighting.
Although he said that he would serve in Heavenly Court, it did not mean that he would not return to Jin'ao Island in the future.
If she can achieve Taoism and become a quasi-sage in the future, and if she can no longer improve her cultivation in heaven, she will definitely return to this cave and listen to her master's teachings.
She was sure that if Gao Yan was given some face at this time, not only would this guy fish out all the spiritual fish in his colorful lotus pond, but even the colorful lotus roots would probably not be left.
All these things were ruined by this foodie.
Therefore, when the Golden Spirit Mother came to the outside of the cave, she did not leave immediately, but deliberately used the magic formula in front of Gao Yan, cast the forbidden method, and laid forty-nine layers of powerful magic outside the colorful lotus pond.
of prohibition.
With her Taoist practice at the peak of Daluo Jinxian, coupled with her understanding of the forbidden methods of the array, if these restrictions are arranged, let alone Gao Yan, even if they are also in the realm of Daluo Jinxian, if they do not understand the array thoroughly enough
, it is difficult to break through her restrictions.
Gao Yan, who followed the Golden Spirit Mother, saw this scene and his naturally smiling face suddenly turned into a bitter look.
Senior Sister Jin Ling doesn’t leave any chance!
With his way of doing things, how could he break such a powerful restriction?
He was very upset.
If I had known this, why did I bring up this topic before? Otherwise, I could have taken advantage of Senior Sister Jin Ling to take the first step and quietly fish out a few fish to satisfy my craving.
Many of the Jie Jiao disciples who came out from behind knew something about Gao Yan's character, so after seeing the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit setting up so many powerful restrictions, they saw Gao Yan grimacing.
The look on his face made everyone snicker.
After finishing placing the last restriction, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit waved her sleeves, raised a white cloud, lifted everyone up, and flew towards the sky.
Even with so many fellow disciples, the Golden Spirit Virgin Mary still flew at an astonishing speed. She arrived at Xiqi at a speed that was as fast as lightning and far beyond the imagination of ordinary immortals.
Everyone looked down from high in the sky, identified the location of the Qishan Conferred God Platform, and landed.
There are three thousand Xiqi soldiers and horses guarding the Conferred God Platform, arranged according to the five elements. The first general is Jiang Ziya's disciple Wu Ji.
They are not here to show off, but simply to guard the Conferred God Platform to prevent some uninformed people from intruding.
After all, Qishan Mountain is too close to Xiqi City, and there are many ordinary people living nearby. People often go into the mountain to cut firewood and hunt. If no one is watching, it is easy for ordinary people to break into it.
When these soldiers saw a group of immortals descending from the sky, although they felt a little confused in their hearts, they did not show any strange emotions.
After all, they are all warriors on the battlefield, veterans who have survived many battles. Over the years, they have seen countless powerful and capable Qi Refiners.
However, weren't they defeated by Xiqi in the end?
Therefore, these soldiers were all proud of their hearts and did not pay much attention to these Jiejiao Immortals.
Jin Ling and others did not pay attention to these soldiers.
In their opinion, they are just a group of ordinary people. Even though they have some aura, they cannot be compared with Taoist soldiers who know how to practice. They are not the slightest threat to them.
The reason why Xiqi's side was able to win in this catastrophe was mainly due to the efforts of the disciples of Chanjiao. Without the help of the disciples of Chanjiao, Xiqi's strength alone would not be enough to defeat the arrogant soldiers of Dashang.
Warrior.
Under the leadership of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, everyone fell directly under the apotheosis stage and waited for the auspicious moment of apotheosis.
After a moment, several more escaping lights flew from outside the mountain. The first one was Jiang Ziya, Yang Jian Nezha and several other third-generation disciples of Chanjiao were guarding them.
Among the twelve golden immortals of Chanjiao, the remaining golden immortals such as Guangchengzi and others have not come here.
They had already overcome their own calamity and returned to their respective caves to recuperate. After all, they were both physically and mentally exhausted during this calamity, and most of their Dao foundations were damaged.
Especially Cihang Taoist Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun and others, if it were not for the elixir given by Yuanshi Tianzun, they would not even be able to participate in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
And after that brutal and unusual battle in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, he was even more seriously injured. He doesn't know how many years it will take to recover as before.
So where do they have the time and energy to participate in something that has nothing to do with them?
Jiang Ziya and others also flew down under the Conferring God Stage. The soldiers no longer acted as indifferent as when they saw the Jie Jiao disciples, and quickly saluted Jiang Ziya.
"Meet the Prime Minister."
Several generals also stepped forward to salute.
Jiang Ziya waved his hand and asked them to perform their duties.
Today was the day to consecrate the gods, and he felt excited but also a little disappointed.
He was excited because this moment was about to be the most glorious moment in his life, being crowned a god on behalf of heaven. What an honor it was, he was so excited just thinking about it.
The reason for the disappointment is that after today, he will turn back into that ordinary Qigong practitioner, an old man who cannot seek immortality and can only seek wealth in the human world.
Jiang Ziya suppressed the disappointment in his heart. No matter what, the imperial conferment on the gods would continue, and it could not stop just because of his loss.
He looked at the group of Jie Jiao disciples standing opposite. Except for a few people, such as Wen Zhong Qiyuan, most of the others were unknown to them, but he also knew that these Jie Jiao disciples were here to receive the divine title.
Although Wen Zhong's appearance was somewhat beyond his expectation, there were endless ways to intercept disciples, and it was normal for him to have some life-saving methods that he didn't know.
After all, even he himself was killed several times and then revived, so that he could continue to preside over the matter of conferring gods. As a golden immortal, Wen Zhong might have similar means.
Jiang Ziya bowed his head gently to these Jie Jiao disciples: "Fellow Taoists, please follow me to the Conferring God Platform."
"good."
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit returned the salute with a faint look on her face.
Neither side said much.
After all, after the Conferring of Gods is over, Jiang Ziya will no longer have any interactions with them.
Jiang Ziya also knew that these Jiejiao disciples didn't like him very much, and he didn't want to go there and get into trouble.
After both parties finished the ceremony, Jiang Ziya took the lead on the stage, and the rest of the people followed him to the Conferring God Stage.
As soon as you enter the Conferred God Platform, you immediately feel like you have entered another world.
There are two completely different worlds on and off stage.
Before walking up to the Conferring Gods Platform, it seemed that this Conferring Gods Platform was just a relatively luxurious platform, and there was nothing surprising about it.
But after going up to the Conferring God Platform, I immediately found that there were misty clouds and mist, numerous shadows, and countless figures floating around.
At the same time, it was like entering the most lively market, noisy and quiet for a moment, which made everyone who suddenly entered the place stunned.
These figures are all people who were listed previously, and they are roughly divided into three sects, with the largest number being the Jie Jiao disciples.
Even though these Jiejiao disciples are dead, the bodies formed by the condensed souls are much more powerful than the phantom souls of those ordinary generals.
The remaining two parties were mainly civil servants and generals who died in the battle between Xiqi and Yin and Shang.
The two parties are mainly the ones quarreling among them.
As for some people with advanced Taoism, such as Qingxu Daode Zhenjun of Chanjiao and Master Lingbao, such as the immortals of Jiejiao, most of them sat quietly aside, listening and turning a blind eye. Obviously these days, they are not interested in the quarrels between the parties.
It has become commonplace.
Fortunately, the quarrel was a quarrel and no more fighting broke out.
The souls of ordinary civil servants and generals are not condensed enough and they cannot fight even if they want to. Those disciples of the two sects of Interpretation and Interception know that becoming a god is their only chance now. If they are deprived of their divine status because of fighting, it will be more of a loss than the gain.
As Jiang Ziya and others entered, the parties that were originally arguing were quiet for a moment, and then caused an even louder noise.
"Jiang Ziya, you are finally here."
A group of souls who had lost their bodies floated forward one after another, clamoring for Jiang Ziya to quickly confer gods on them.
Those who originally belonged to Xiqi's side were better off and still retained basic respect for Jiang Ziya. Although they surrounded him, they did not dare to talk nonsense. However, those generals who died in the battle on the Yin and Shang side would not be polite to him.
Those Jiejiao disciples who died in the battle originally wanted to surround them, but after seeing the figure of Our Lady of the Golden Spirit, they immediately did not dare to make a mistake and hurriedly came over to salute the Virgin of the Golden Spirit.
"Sister Jin Ling, why are you here?"
Qiu Shouxian asked.
He is one of the seven immortals who serve the Lord Tongtian, so he is more familiar with the Golden Spirit Mother.
Mother Jin Ling looked at the souls of so many Jiejiao disciples in front of her and couldn't help but sigh. However, she quickly put away her emotions and said: "Junior brothers and sisters, please be patient. Although after becoming a god, you will become a real spirit
You can rely on the list of gods, but you can still continue to practice, which is much better than reincarnation.
As for those of us, with Master's permission, we are all going to serve in the Heavenly Court, and when the time comes, we will be there to help each other, so we won't be bullied."
The disciples of Jiejiao were all overjoyed when they heard this.
With the help of the Great Golden Immortal, Our Lady of the Golden Spirit, they would not be afraid of being bullied in heaven.
On the other side, Jiang Ziya was so disturbed by the noise from those souls that he suddenly used the whip.
Suddenly, a huge aura emanated from the Divine Whip, which shocked the souls and spirits who had no body and were all trembling. The Divine Whip was really too restrained for them.
Seeing that all these souls were frightened by the power of the Divine Whip, Jiang Ziya nodded with satisfaction and walked forward with the Divine Whip in hand. Many souls gave way to him.
Jiang Ziya came to the list of gods, placed the jade talisman and the golden edict on the incense table, picked up three sticks of incense and lit it, bowed to the list of gods, inserted the incense into the golden tripod, then walked around the stage three times, drank wine and presented flowers.
.
Then he bowed three times in the direction of Kunlun Mountain, stood up and said: "I was ordered by the saints of the three religions to take charge of the canonization list and canonize the gods on behalf of heaven. Now that the great catastrophe has passed, today is the day to consecrate the gods to the gods.
, the loyal souls who died in battle will all receive their divine status, and their souls will return to their homes."
When the Qi Refiners and Civil and Military Ministers who died on the stage heard this, they all looked happy.
For those Qi practitioners who only have their souls left, what they want is that they can finally escape from this hellish place.
Although the space inside the Conferred God Platform is not small, it is really depressing for them to stay here, especially when they can see those hostile faces when they look up, they feel even more unlucky.
And those generals who died on the battlefield were even more delighted.
Although those Qi refiners felt that becoming gods was not good and they felt restricted, but for these ordinary generals, it was a great opportunity to reach the sky in one step.
After all, becoming a god means immortality and possessing powerful magical powers.
As for being controlled by heaven, this is not a problem for them.
Originally they were officials and generals of the Yin Shang or Xiqi, and they themselves were subordinates of others.
Now that he has gone to heaven, he has just changed his allegiance. For them, there is nothing unacceptable.
Jiang Ziya signaled everyone to be quiet, and then began to read out the imperial edict: "Yuan Shi Tianzun, the leader of the Taishang Wuji Hunyuan Cult, said: The paths of immortals and mortals are not accessible unless they have deep roots. There are differences between gods and ghosts. How can they be flattered and coveted by evil spirits?
You have surrendered your Qi and refined your form, but you have not killed the three corpses. There will be a calamity in the end. Even if you hold on to the truth and guard the mystery, if you have not transcended the Yangshen, it will be difficult to go to the Yaochi appointment.
Therefore, even though you have heard of the Great Dao, you are still greedy and delusional, and your body has already entered the realm of saints. It is difficult to get rid of your anger and anger. The cycle of life and death is endless, and your karma and injustice are chasing each other, and there is no end to the retribution. I have deep sympathy for them!
I pity you and others who are trapped in the sword, sinking into the sea of misery, and wandering without support. I specially ordered Jiang Shang to follow the severity of the disaster and the level of goods. I appointed you and others as the eight righteous gods, who were in charge of each department, controlled the heaven and earth, and inspected the world.
Good and evil, report meritorious deeds in the three realms.
Misfortunes and blessings will come to you, and life and death will be transcended from now on. On the day of merit, you will be promoted in an orderly manner. You must abide by the rules of heaven and do not act rashly to avoid disasters again. Therefore, I give you this edict. I am so proud of you!"
After Jiang Ziya finished reading the edict, he paid tribute on the altar table, holding an apricot-yellow flag in his left hand and a divine whip in his right hand. A spiritual light hit the list of gods, and the list of gods suddenly shone brightly, showing the names of many gods.
These were all discussed in advance between the Sanqing Saints and the Jade Emperor. At this time, Jiang Ziya only needed to grant the titles in order.
Everyone was intimidated by the power of the divine whip in Jiang Ziya's hand and did not dare to rush forward. However, they also looked around not far away, hoping to find where their names were.
After Jiang Ziya ordered everyone to be silent, he shouted loudly: "Bai Jian comes forward to listen to the seal."
Bai Jian quickly stepped forward and prostrated himself on the ground.
Jiang Ziya thought: "By imperial decree, Bai Jianxi was a general under Xuanyuan. He was instrumental in conquering Chiyou. Unfortunately, he died in Beihai. He sacrificed his life to serve the country. Your loyalty is commendable! I now decree that you are the leader of the three realms and the three hundred and sixty-five Qingfu Zhengshen."
position."
Bai Jian was overjoyed and quickly thanked him.
He really reached the sky in one step. Originally he was just a general who died tragically in Beihai. He had no chance to be reincarnated for so many years, but now he was able to become the Qingfu Zhengshen in one fell swoop.
Although I don't have much power in my hands, compared with the days when I was a lonely ghost in the past, it's like heaven and earth.
