Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 680: The Dragon Tribe's Movements, Wuzhiqi's Reminder
As he was speaking, the masters of the four seas' Dragon Palaces, the four Dragon Kings, also arrived.

The Dragon King of the East China Sea spoke first.

"Third brother, I heard that His Majesty wants to bring all the righteous gods to Kunlun to listen to the teachings. Do you agree?"

Surprisingly, he also came here for the opportunity to listen to the teachings in Kunlun Mountain.

"It's not the Jade Emperor's intention, I just want to warn the gods to arrange their affairs properly before listening to the sermon."

"It's impossible that you are happy before you go, but after you return, the world is in chaos, and the gods are attacking each other in order to avoid going to the Immortal Execution Platform."

Ao Bing also tried to comfort the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas.

After the Four Dragon Kings left, Ao Bing's mind returned to the Four Rivers Dragon Court.

Among the four dragon courts, there is also a dragon god who serves as the water god.

Compared to the four seas, the rivers on the road are more closely connected with the human world and are more likely to be influenced by humans.

If it is not arranged properly, it will be fine on the four seas. No matter how it changes, the impact on the human race will be very small.

But if the rivers on the shore cannot be properly managed, it will cause floods, which will be fine. But what if people hear that even the rivers have been filled up by humans? Where will the water gods go to cry out for help?
But how easy is it to arrange all these matters properly?
When listening to the sermon in Kunlun Mountain, one cannot even be sure how long it will last, so how can one arrange everything in advance?
Thinking of this, Ao Bing also left Hongluan Star and went to the Huaishui Dragon Court, where he summoned all the dragon gods from all over the place.

Not long after, all the dragon gods of Dragon Court gathered here.

Those who cannot come also distract themselves and come here.

After the greeting, all the dragon gods quieted down and waited for Ao Bing's words, their eyes full of anticipation.

Ao Bing's mood was also extremely heavy.

For the Sidulong Court, the current situation is beyond all previous challenges.

Because what is involved here is not an enemy, but an unspeakable, 'internal' distribution of interests.

Who can go to Kunlun to listen to the teachings and who cannot go?
If there were no such thing as the Jade Emperor, whether to go or not would depend solely on the "fate" set by the saints. Those who can go would of course be happy, and those who cannot would have no need to be dissatisfied or resentful.

But after what happened to the Jade Emperor, the situation was completely different.

Because after the Jade Emperor's decree, between heaven and earth, all the righteous gods belonging to the Heavenly Court naturally formed an idea in their hearts: Since I am a righteous god in the Heavenly Court, it is natural for me to go to Kunlun to listen to the teachings.

This is especially true for water gods!

After all, the water god of every body of water is considered a complete pantheon, and every water god is considered a true god.

In such a situation, if someone is left behind, one can imagine what he would think.

Especially after Ao Bing tried to intercept the Jade Emperor's decree.

The dragon gods of the Four Rivers Dragon Court all consider Ao Bing's existence as the overall situation - from their point of view, they have sacrificed many things over the years to ensure that Ao Bing's position and interests are not affected.

And Ao Bing, as the Lord of Dragon Court, not only failed to guarantee everyone's interests in such an important event as listening to the teachings in Kunlun, but instead asked everyone to continue to make sacrifices, and even give up the opportunity to listen to the teachings... This doesn't make sense.

If this is true, the morale of the people in the Four Rivers Dragon Court will be dispersed.

By that time, the Dragon Gods in the Dragon Court would each do their own thing and put their own selfish interests first, and Ao Bing's position would be extremely unfavorable.

If the Jade Emperor stirs up trouble again, the entire dragon clan might be split again.

"The reason why all the dragons are summoned here this time is because of Kunlun's teachings." Ao Bing thought about all the possibilities and spoke slowly in front of all the dragon gods.

"The Jade Purity Saint preached to all living beings in heaven and earth, and the Great Purity Saint and the Upper Purity Saint responded from afar. This is the first time since the creation of the world."

This is not the first time that a saint has preached - however, in the past, saints preached to their own disciples. Outside of the saint's sect, only a handful of people with great supernatural powers could be invited to visit the saint and discuss the evolution of the great way.

Even the Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, who is known for his teachings to all without discrimination and for attracting all immortals to pay homage, when he preaches, the listeners are basically all disciples of Shangqing, and have nothing to do with immortals and gods outside of Shangqing.

Not to mention Taiqing Daode Tianzun.

Cultivation originated with the beginning of heaven and earth. From ancient times to the present, although the methods of cultivation remain fundamentally the same, their external appearance has undergone many changes.

The method of cultivation also comes from blood, body, vital energy, soul, etc., each has its own origin and destination.

Especially now, the changes in the world are unprecedentedly drastic.

Under the blessing of karma and the infusion of the incomparably rich origin of heaven and earth, countless immortals and gods have developed immense doubts about "cultivation".

However, they cannot get answers to such doubts on their own. Even some great masters may not have the answers to such matters.

Especially for the dragon clan, a race that has been completely inherited since the ancient times, in this unprecedented "era of great changes", their respective understandings of the world, as well as their respective understandings of cultivation, are in unprecedented collision with the history recorded by the dragon clan and the dragon clan's past.

The doubts caused by this collision can only be explained by the Dharma Assembly presided over by this saint, which covers the entire heaven and earth.

——During the Dharma Assembly, the saints will give advice, and other immortals and gods who are listening will also express their doubts. When the saints explain these doubts, other people who are listening will also gain new insights.

Therefore, no one wants to miss this unprecedented saint's Dharma Assembly.

“But the dragon gods should also be clear that although the saints’ Dharma Assembly is open to all living beings in heaven and earth, it also has its own threshold, and not everyone can attend the Dharma Assembly.” Ao Bing poured a basin of cold water on the dragon gods present, and suppressed all the distracting thoughts that were flying in their minds.

"As the Jade Emperor said, if the Heavenly Court were to attend this Saint's Dharma Assembly, the Saint would naturally show leniency for the sake of the greater good of Heaven and Earth."

"But everyone, please don't forget - this Dharma Assembly is held in Kunlun Mountain."

"And the one presiding over the ceremony is none other than Jade Pure Yuanshi Tianzun!"

"If you don't know what this saint's temperament is like, you can go and look through the history books of the dragon clan."

"Not to mention that the gods abandoned the heaven and earth and went to Kunlun, combined their power, used the heaven and earth to force the saint to make concessions, and made the saint unhappy. How much could they understand and how much could they gain at the Dharma Assembly?"

“Only after hearing the sermon.”

"The saints are already unhappy with the Jade Emperor's plan. If the heaven and earth change again because of the gods' negligence... then do you think that at that time, the one who will hold the gods accountable for their dereliction of duty is me, the celestial official in charge of punishment, the saint on Mount Kunlun?"

"If I were to investigate, that would be fine. As the saying goes, the law cannot hold everyone responsible. The gods are acting under the orders of the Emperor of Heaven. I am the Heavenly Official in charge of punishment. I can hold the gods responsible, but what can I do about the orders of the Emperor of Heaven?"

"It's nothing more than three cups of wine as punishment, and then it'll be over." "But if the saint pursues it, that'll be another matter." Ao Bing's voice became increasingly stern.

"In the world, apart from the saints, no one is irreplaceable - even the emperor of heaven has the Six Imperial Wheels."

"Let alone the ordinary gods, let alone my dragon clan?"

"If it really comes to the point where the heaven and earth change due to the gods' dereliction of duty, and if it really comes to the point where the king of men offers sacrifices to heaven and earth, then with the ability of a saint, it would be easy to dethrone the gods and start a new battle to confer the gods. What would be the difficulty?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the dragon gods gathered in the hall were all awe-inspiring.

Yuanshi Tianzun has never been a good-tempered saint!

For no reason, the dragon gods recalled the past when the dragon clan was suppressed by heaven and earth.

For the vast majority of dragons, Daluo is not something they would aspire to - being able to achieve Taiyi is already enough.

If one can make some progress in bloodline while achieving Taiyi and be able to touch upon the changes of the Heavenly Dragon, it would be an unrivalled blessing.

For an area of ​​water, one Taiyi Dragon God is enough to control its rise and fall, but for the heaven and earth, Taiyi's existence is really no different from that of an ant.

If it really comes to the point as Ao Bing said, where the saints are angered and heaven and earth despise us, then what will it matter even if we have achieved Taiyi?

Could it be better than today?
Seeing that the dragon gods in the hall were all moved by his words, and had listened to Kunlun and the heavenly court's previous "fanaticism", but now they seemed to be thinking and considering, Ao Bing nodded and changed the subject.

"I also know that the opportunity to attend the Saint's Dharma Assembly is rare - the Emperor of Heaven will personally lead all the gods to go together. Once his decree is issued, there are also many righteous gods in the Heavenly Court in our Dragon Court. We can only respond to the Emperor of Heaven."

“But the same thing.”

"The importance of the water god concerns all living beings."

"Everyone in the palace, whether you are a god in heaven or a dragon god who has a chance to go to Kunlun, no matter who you are, you must properly manage your own authority and responsibilities, and not leave the waters without a master, causing trouble to all living beings."

“If anyone causes trouble on the waters by hearing the word.”

“Or maybe there is someone who disturbs the waters out of hatred for no reason. Even if the Emperor of Heaven has an edict to pardon his crime, the dragon clan also has its own family rules.” At this point, Ao Bing's words became extremely grim.

"Follow the Dragon King's order." The summoned dragon gods greeted each other and then retreated one after another.

None of them felt that Ao Bing's request was harsh - after all, Ao Bing did not want them to not respond to the Jade Emperor, nor did he want them to give up the opportunity to listen to the sermon. He just wanted them to ensure that the waters were stable and no accidents occurred while they were listening to the sermon.

For other immortal gods, this may be very difficult.

But for the powerful dragon clan, this is really no big deal.

The dragon race is a natural water god. Even if all the dragon gods present went to Kunlun to listen to the teachings, other real dragons could easily come over and reconcile the waters in various places...

The most interesting thing is that there are many dragon elders among the dragon clan.

Especially the dragon elders in Jiuhui Bay - those elders felt that they had 'lived enough' and were too lazy to ask for any further progress.

Therefore, in all likelihood, these dragon elders will not participate in this Kunlun Dharma Assembly.

Therefore, as long as we greet these dragon elders in advance, these elders will naturally be happy to come to the four rivers and various rivers to stabilize the waters for the younger generations.

At the same time, these dragon elders who do not expect to make further progress will not covet the water authority everywhere.

Between heaven and earth, only a few races like the dragon clan can find so many old dragons who can both keep the situation under control and make people feel at ease in front of this saint's ceremony.

Then, after the dragon gods dispersed in the Dragon Court of the Huai River, the sounds of dragon roars began to rise and fall in various waters on earth.

The Dragon Clan’s Jiuhui Bay was more lively than ever before.

Not to mention the real dragons of the dragon clan, even some clever water gods who are not from the dragon clan have asked their friendly dragon gods to invite these old dragons, hoping that these old dragons can look after their own waters on their behalf.

When the Huaishui Dragon Court became empty again, the world inside the Dragon Court turned upside down in an instant.

Ao Bing and Princess Longji left the Huaishui Dragon Court together and appeared in front of another old water palace.

It was the water residence of Wuzhiqi, the evil lord of the Huai River, and also the place where he was suppressed.

"Meet Senior Huaijun."

"You little dragon, you are really brave." Wuzhiqi was lying in the water palace, looking at Ao Bing outside the water palace. His expression was quite complicated.

Ao Bing himself didn't know how much of a commotion his instructions to the Dragon God in the Dragon Court would cause, but Wuzhiqi had already seen that after those words, countless immortals and gods between heaven and earth would hate Ao Bing immensely!

Misfortune caused by dereliction of duty due to hearing it - if Ao Bing didn't mention it, the other immortals and gods between heaven and earth would naturally not mention it either.

By that time, even if there were real changes and disasters in the world, the immortals and gods would be able to shirk responsibility, saying that they were not thoughtful enough or that they were acting on the orders of the Emperor of Heaven. In short, the situation would be able to be resolved under the protection of the Jade Emperor.

Of course, this will also make the positions of the immortals and gods closer to that of the Jade Emperor.

But Ao Bing brought it up.

And it was mentioned twice - once briefly by Heaven.

After returning to Longting, he explained the matter clearly and plainly.

And this is very troublesome.

Ao Bing had clarified the matter twice and made the consequences clear - if any immortal or god were to neglect his duty and cause trouble because of this matter of listening to the teachings, then it would really be "not warned in advance".

And this means that since Ao Bing said those words, he has once again stood on the opposite side of the many immortals and gods in heaven and earth.

"The world today is different from the past. Rules are more important."

"But the more you value rules, the more you will be rejected by the gods and the harder it will be for you to move forward."

"Are you really not afraid?"
