The Great Desolate Stygian River

Chapter 71
On this day, the words of Daozu Hongjun came to the ears of the six saints at the same time: "All the saints come to Zixiao Palace to discuss matters."

33 days away, Zixiao Palace

"Meet the teacher!"

All the saints saluted the plain-clothed old man who suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Exemption." Daoist Hongjun said with a blank face: "Since the creation of Pangu, Honghuang has experienced the calamity of beasts, dragons, and liches. Now the fourth calamity has come. .”

The hearts of the saints tensed up when they heard the words, they didn't expect that the fourth calamity measurement would come so quickly!
Hongjun continued: "Some time ago, Haotian came to complain, saying that you and other saints were arrogant and rude and refused to listen to orders, and there was no one available in the heavenly court. God, pass the calamity."

Hearing this, the saints couldn't help but look at Yuanyuan and Tongtian. Among the disciples of the saints, only the disciples of these two were the most arrogant.

Daozu opened his mouth again and said: "Now that the list of gods is coming out, I have recruited you to come here as a teacher. I just want to discuss with you, whose disciples can be on the list of gods, and see if we can pass the calamity of the gods as soon as possible."

Lao Tzu couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask the teacher, why did the calamity come so quickly this time?"

All the saints looked at Hongjun, waiting for the answer. After all, the previous catastrophe was too destructive. Ninety-ninety percent of the top monks died every time. The Great Desolation was also destroyed again and again, and even the Tianzhu fell down, which shows how destructive the amount of calamity is.

"Nowadays, the human world is flourishing, and Taoism is also prosperous because of this, but the disciples under the sect, such as Er, are ignorant of Taoism, rebellious, and repeatedly commit murders, causing the Three Realms to function poorly and the order is in chaos. Now the monks of the prehistoric world all regard you as the three religions of Taoism. Being respectful, I only want to be happy and not think about giving back to the prehistoric, which led to the aura of catastrophe, and the spiritual energy is getting thinner and thinner, and the yin and yang are not adjusted, so that the prehistoric is unstable. Now it happens that the heaven needs manpower, and you can let the disciples be included in the list of gods, so as to survive Killing and robbery, secondly, someone needs to serve in the heavenly court to maintain the order of the prehistoric and reconcile yin and yang."

At this time, Yuanyuan asked: "Teacher, who is included in this list of gods?"

Hongjun said indifferently: "This time, those who practiced the deepest Taoism will become immortals; those who practiced the wrong way will become gods; those who practiced the Tao again will enter reincarnation; those who practiced the least will be turned into fly ash!"

Tong Tian hurriedly asked: "Teacher, how many people do you need to enter the list of gods?"

With a wave of Hongjun's hand, two magic weapons appeared in front of the saints, one was the list of gods in the heavenly book, and the other was the matching magic whip.

Hongjun said, "Those who enter the list of gods are restrained by the owner of the list of gods, and they cannot escape unless there are immeasurable calamities. Eight righteous gods are needed, a total of 360 five!"

"The upper four are thunder, fire, plague, and fighting; the lower four are stars and constellations, three mountains and five mountains, rain and clouds, gods of good and evil!"

"Among them, there are loyal ministers and righteous people on the list, and there are those who did not become immortals and became gods. They have their own depths and strengths, and they have fate with each other. Therefore, gods have honor and inferiority, and death has precedence. This is the number of days, no trivial matter!"

"Under the sect, some disciples have ordinary feet and shallow blessings. If they can enter the Conferred God Ranking, it may not be a way out!"

The saints couldn't help taking a breath, and couldn't help looking at Tongtian.

The soul enters the list of gods, but in this life, it is coerced by others, and it will never be free again, and the path of immortality will be cut off. No one wants their disciples to enter this list of gods, and they will not be freed.

Nuwa has only one Luya, and she has never made it public, and has never been out of the Wohuang Palace, so it is impossible for him to be on the list.

Jieyin and Zhunti are in the west, and they only have two or three kittens, and they have never traveled to the east to get karma.

Lao Tzu has only one disciple, Xuan Du, who has been meditating in the Taiqing Palace, and has almost never entered the prehistoric world, so naturally he has not been contaminated with much karma.

The fourteen disciples of Yuanshi were all carefully selected, and it would be heartbreaking for everyone to be on the list, and even if they were all on the list, it would not be enough.

In the end, there is only Tongtian, whose subordinates are known as Ten Thousand Immortals coming to court, and there are all three religions and nine streams under his sect. His influence in Dashang is almost overwhelming, and only Jiejiao can fill the number on the list of gods.

"You sign the list of gods on your own, and I won't interfere." After speaking, Hongjun disappeared.

"Under my sect, there is only one disciple, Xuandu, who has inherited my Taiqing Immortal Law, and cannot be on the list! The rest of the recorded disciples have great merits of great luck and cannot be on the list!"

Lao Tzu is the first disciple of Hongjun, the first of the six saints, and the first to speak.

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Shi, Nu Wa, Jie Yin, and Zhun Ti also spoke.

"There are only fourteen direct disciples under my sect, all of whom are quasi-sages, so they cannot be listed!"

"I only have one disciple under my sect, so I can't be on the list."

"This calamity was caused by Taoist disciples and has nothing to do with the West. Besides, the land in the West is barren and there are few talents. There are only a few disciples in total, so why don't you make the list?"

"Look at what you mean, are all my disciples on the list?" Tong Tian said angrily when he saw how stubborn they were.

Yuan Shishi immediately said: "Third brother, your disciples are all people with hair and horns, people born from wet eggs, who are not qualified to cultivate immortals at all! Send them to the list, let Haotian strictly discipline them, purify them, and cut them off. a good thing!"

Seeing the original and the old saying again, Tong Tian said angrily: "Why is my disciple so unbearable? If you don't sign this list, I won't sign either!"

When the two were about to quarrel again, Hongjun appeared and asked, "Can you discuss it properly?"

"Returning to the teacher, we haven't finished discussing it yet." Lao Tzu replied boldly.

"There should be no delay in conferring the gods, let's decide as soon as possible." After Hongjun finished speaking, he disappeared again.

After Hongjun left, all the sages remained silent, and Lao Tzu was the first to speak: "My family is a single seedling in Xuandu, with deep roots and long luck. If I don't deserve to be on the list, let Haotian send me in my incarnation." After finishing speaking, he filled in the name of Taishang Laojun on the list of gods.

Nuwa said that she does not establish a great religion, has few disciples, and has immeasurable merits, which is enough to take shelter under her disciples, but she is also willing to do her part, so she filled in the names of several human races.

Yuanshi Tianzun randomly filled in a few three-generation disciples, and then handed over the list to the leader of Jiaotian.

Tong Tian thought for a long time, wrote down dozens of names, and handed them over to Jie Yin Zhun Ti.

Jieying looked miserable and said nothing, Zhunti took over the conversation and said, "Although the West is poor, I am also happy to contribute to the construction of the Heavenly Court. After I finished speaking, I filled in a few names, but they are all named disciples."

The list of gods was returned to Lao Tzu's hands. When Lao Tzu saw that most of them were left unfilled, Lao Tzu had no choice but to look at Tong Tian and said to him: "There are many disciples, and it is also a matter of chance to choose those who are not good enough to be on the list." , Yuanshi junior disciples are rare, but they should all be on the list."

Tong Tian felt that what Lao Tzu said was also reasonable, and after a moment of deliberation, he wrote another hundred and ten names on the list of gods.

Yuan Shiyu said earnestly, "All the disciples of my sect are those with deep roots and continuous blessings, but they should not be listed on the list. On the contrary, the disciples of my disciples are all wet-bodied, fur-wearing and horn-wearing people. There are shallow-rooted people everywhere. It is a great blessing to be on the list.”

Yuan Shi thought himself to be good at seduction, but in Tong Tian's eyes, he got a bargain and sold himself as a good boy. He cared about the friendship between the three Qings, and he couldn't bear the fact that the second brother's disciples were all on the list, so he wrote a lot of names.

So he started arguing with Yuan Shi, and when Lao Tzu saw this scene, he yelled angrily: "You are a saint, but you are like a common man, and you mistake your teacher's purity for no reason, what a shame!"

At this time, Hongjun appeared again and asked, "Can we discuss it properly?"

It was still Lao Tzu who replied: "We still need to discuss for a while."

Hongjun said: "Fengshenzi is a big deal, and the three merchants should make a conclusion." After saying that, he disappeared.

Yuanshi and Tongtian had no choice but to write some more names, but the five righteous gods in 360 were still dissatisfied. All the saints looked at Tongtian together, hoping that he would fill them in.

"How can you team up to deceive me! No one will sign it, and rely on the actions of the disciples, life and death will be in peace!"

After Tongtian finished speaking, Hongjun appeared again and asked, "Can we negotiate a result?"

All the sages looked at each other, Lao Tzu stepped forward and said: "Let's discuss, the remaining vacancies on the list of gods will not be filled, and the disciples under the sect will be allowed to do it."

Hongjun nodded, put away the list of gods and the whip, and said: "The man appointed by heaven has the image of a flying bear. Whoever enters the family will be in charge of the list of gods and preside over the list of gods." After saying that, he disappeared again.

Seeing that the matter was finished, all the saints went back to the dojo to make plans without mentioning it.
