Chapter 541 Three Officials Emperor, Zhenwu Emperor!
After handing over the authority of Heaven, Qin Mo opened a temple in the Eighteenth Heaven - Shenxiao Palace. Like the other six saints, he retired to the heavens and no longer easily interfered in the affairs of Hongmeng Heaven.
Soon after,
The calamity of the Conferred Gods has come to an end, and the disciples of the three religions have escaped from the Conferred Gods List and returned to their respective religions.
The strength of the Chan and Jie sects increased greatly.
Over the past 100,000 years, relying on the title of the winner, the Chan Sect changed its previous style of careful selection and widely recruited disciples in the world of earthly immortals. The number of disciples in the sect has increased exponentially and is no longer inferior to that of the Jie Sect.
But after all, these newcomers have only been practicing for a short time, and there are no outstanding masters yet.
With the six inner disciples of the Chan sect, namely Chi Jing|zi, Manjusri Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra , Taiyi Bodhisattva, Lingbao Dharma Master and Juliusun, escaped from the predicament, the embarrassment of the absence of Chan sect masters was immediately made up.
Even better ,
Because Manjusri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra were included in the Conferred God List, they did not have the chance to join the Western Religion. By the end of the catastrophe, Buddhism had already declined, and it was even less likely for them to join.
This is equivalent to leaving two masters for the Chan sect, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.
As for Jiejiao,
Although three thousand mortals were taken in by Buddhism, most of the capable disciples were still included in the List of Gods. After escaping from the predicament, the strength of Jiejiao was restored to 80% of its peak period.
The most important thing is,
After experiencing the brutal Battle of the Gods, all the immortals of the Jiejiao sect have probably abandoned their previous naive ideas. Now they have rich experience in fighting and killing in times of disaster, and they have strength and magic weapons to rely on, so their future is limitless.
Qin Mo sometimes thinks,
"Could it be that Master Tongtian is not really ruthless, but is making a big move?"
What is the truth?
I'm afraid only Master Tongtian knows this.
With the end of the Conferred God Tribulation, the one who suffered the most was naturally the previously prosperous Buddhism, which not only had to face suppression from the Orthodox and Unorthodox sects, but also had to face pressure from the Heavenly Court.
Today,
No one can ignore the existence of heaven.
Especially since Qin Mo achieved enlightenment and became a saint, and had the Chaos Bell to suppress his luck, and he also recruited three Golden Immortals, Kong Xuan, Kunpeng, and Zhen Yuanzi, the Heavenly Court has become on par with the four religions.
The situation in Hongmeng is bound to become more complicated...
certainly,
The so-called complexity only applies to beings below the level of saints. In Qin Mo's eyes, the following catastrophes are nothing more than a game after another.
If you are interested, please give me some pointers;
Not interested,
Just leave it to the three great emperors of heaven to deal with it.
In the second kalpa, Buddhism was defeated and retreated to Xiniuhezhou; the Chan sect and the Jie sect started a secret struggle in Nandanbuzhou and Dongshengshenzhou.
Taking advantage of the interval between the fighting among various parties, with the strong support of Nuwa and the support of Buddhism, the demon clan led by the Monkey King Sun Wukong unexpectedly unified the Northern Continent and defended the demon clan's basic base.
As for the Heavenly Palace,
It extended its tentacles to the four continents at the same time, continued to spread Shintoism, and constantly conferred titles on mountain gods and land gods.
During this calamity, Lu Xueqi, the Ziwei Emperor of Heaven, Diao Chan, the Holy Mother of Golden Pool, Guangchengzi of the Chan Sect, and Yunxiao Niangniang of the Jie Sect successively entered the realm of Golden Immortals.
…
Eighteenth Heaven, Shenxiao Palace.
Seeing that the second catastrophe was coming to an end, Qin Mo took out the jade talisman and golden book, and with a stroke of his pen, he conferred upon Zhuang Zhou the title of Heavenly Emperor, Confucius the title of Earthly Emperor, Li Chunfeng the title of Water Emperor, and Zhang Sanfeng the title of True Martial Emperor.
In the past kalpa,
In addition to the two newly promoted Golden Immortals Lu Xueqi and Diao Chan, the four most outstanding performers in Heaven are Zhuang Zhou, Kong Qiu, Li Chunfeng and Zhang Sanfeng, all of whom have the potential to advance to Golden Immortals.
Among the four,
The most dazzling one is Confucius, who has been presiding over the conferring of gods in the lower world for many years and may be promoted at any time.
In this regard, Qin Mo was generous in rewarding Confucius. After bestowing the Heavenly Sword last time, he also gave the Heavenly Book of the Gods to Confucius to be used for conferring deities in the lower world.
In this way, Confucius also became the number one person under the Golden Immortal.
This is not because Qin Mo is partial.
The truth is that he has limited magic weapons in his hands, so he can only concentrate his resources and give priority to cultivating seed players.
Lu Xueqi was the first one.
Confucius is the second one.
This imperial decree to confer upon Zhuang Zhou the title of Heavenly Emperor was equivalent to transferring Zhuang Zhou from his position as a deity and placing him in heaven to retire, allowing Confucius to take charge of the conferring of gods in the lower world as the Earthly Emperor.
With this vast fortune,
It was probably only natural for Confucius to advance to the Golden Immortal.
On the contrary, the God of Finance, Red Eyebrows, and the God of Fire, Wanshi, gradually fell behind and still remain in the realm of the Three Declines, without making any progress.
Everyone's circumstances have a ceiling.
Even Han Fei, the God of Thunder, and Jingwei, the God of Water, have remained in the Four Decline Heavenly Immortals for too long, and their hopes of advancing to the Golden Immortals are becoming increasingly slim.
The threshold to becoming a Golden Immortal is so high that it really makes people despair!
The successive enthronement of four great emperors was only a reward from Qin Mo to the Heavenly Court in the previous transitional catastrophe. The real test and layout were still in the next catastrophe.
It takes a kalpa of time.
The masters of the Chan and Jie sects who were on the Conferred God List previously have all recovered their vitality. The fight between the two sects is bound to become more intense, which may once again give Buddhism a chance to profit from it.
This is what Qin Mo doesn't want to see.
Suppressing the fortune of Buddhism is Qin Mo’s next goal.
Thinking of this,
Qin Mo's figure flashed, and he slowly walked out of the Shenxiao Palace, passed through the chaos, and flew towards the Bajing Palace.
…
Bajing Palace.
Taishang Laojun is preaching to his disciples.
In the past two kalpas, even the Human Sect, which had the fewest disciples, had gradually grown stronger over time, and was no longer supported by only the Great Master Xuandu.
The most representative of them are the Eight Immortals of the Upper Cave selected from the lower world.
Today,
The lowest level of cultivation among the Eight Immortals are the Second Level Celestial Immortals.
Sensing Qin Mo's arrival, Taishang Laojun stopped preaching, "Xuan Du, go to the door to welcome Emperor Haotian!" Because they are both saints, Taishang Laojun has already regarded Qin Mo as a peer.
Besides,
One of them is a direct disciple of Hongjun Daozu, and the other is a registered disciple, so they can be said to be from the same school.
"promise!"
Master Xuandu did not dare to delay and stood up immediately. Just as he reached the door, he saw Emperor Haotian walking slowly out of the chaos. He had no magical protection on his body, but he could move freely.
This is the power of a saint!
"Meet the Great Emperor Haotian!"
Master Xuandu bowed quickly, with mixed emotions. The scene that happened in the Sun Palace that year was still vivid in his mind. He didn't expect that when they met again, they would be so different.
"Excuse me!"
Qin Mo was not an arrogant person, and this time he came to discuss something with Taishang Laojun. He followed the great master Xuandu and leisurely entered the Bajing Palace.
When he saw Taishang Laojun, he bowed and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother!"
Taishang Laojun's eyes fixed. Qin Mo called him by that name, but he also included himself in the lineage of Hongjun Daozu , and it was obvious that he wanted to be close to him. He smiled and said, "Junior brother, please take a seat!"
