Rewriting the Gods

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother nodded. Indeed, they were just a group of Golden Immortals and beings below them. Once they entered the Heavenly Palace and were bound by the Heavenly rules, it was very easy to control them.

As Haotian said, no one will be loyal to one person wholeheartedly.

The two have been in charge of the Heavenly Court for hundreds of thousands of years. They are no longer the boys beside the Taoist Ancestor and have a lot of experience in managing immortals.

When you are in charge of a force, rules are important, not loyalty.

Apart from anything else, there are probably not many female fairies in Yao Chi who are truly loyal to Heaven. But as long as they are in Yao Chi, none of these female fairies dare to violate the rules of Yao Chi!
This is true for the female fairies in the Yaochi, and also for the human fairies who are about to ascend to heaven.

If you dare to disobey the rules set by heaven, thunder will strike you, your soul will be shattered, and you will die!

"These should be the immortals recorded on the Jiuzhou Mountain Map and Jiuzhou Water Map of the human race. They carry some of the authority of the Heavenly Dao and are the best candidates for the Mountain God and River God."

"If we accept them into the Heavenly Court, more than half of the seats in the Heavenly Court will be filled immediately."

Haotian said with a smug look on his face.

"After all, we are the masters of the three realms appointed by the master. Apart from those saints, who else dares not give us face?"

Haotian, who had just been greatly angered by the orthodox and unorthodox sects, suddenly felt happy when he saw that the human race gave him such face.

But then, Haotian's face darkened again, "Chanjiao, Jiejiao!"

The performance of the human race made Haotian extremely happy, but at the same time, it also greatly magnified the unhappiness that the two religions brought to Haotian.

Good and bad are determined by comparison.

For a moment, Haotian's evaluation of Jiejiao and Chenjiao dropped to a lower level again.

"Just wait for me. One day, I will make you pay for your rudeness!"

Haotian took a deep breath and suppressed his dissatisfaction.

A smile reappeared on his face, and he said, "Hundreds of millions of immortals from the human race have come to me to seek refuge. I naturally cannot neglect you all."

"I order all the immortals to lead the human race to the Miro Palace. I want to meet with all the immortals in person!"

"Yes!"

As the Jade Emperor spoke, teams of heavenly soldiers and generals marched out of the Heavenly Palace and headed towards the four heavenly gates, ready to welcome the immortals ascending from heaven.

In the Heavenly Court, the highest rank is generally no more than the Golden Immortal, and nearly 70% are True Immortals. There is no need for the Lord of Heaven, Haotian God, to personally meet them.

After all, in the Heavenly Court, the Golden Immortals are just ordinary golden-armored celestial generals, that is, middle and upper-level management personnel. There is no need for the Lord Haotian to meet them. Often, when the Taiyi Golden Immortals and the more powerful Daluo Golden Immortals join the Heavenly Court, the Lord Haotian will personally come forward to meet them.

But this time, there were too many immortals from the human race who ascended to heaven.

In every territory where human beings are active, there are immortals rising into the sky from every mountain and every river, and their number is as high as hundreds of millions.

These people poured into the Heavenly Palace, directly increasing the number of immortals in the Heavenly Palace by more than ten times.

With such a large number of immortals, Lord Haotian would naturally have to meet them in person.

Rays of light rose into the sky and then entered the heavenly palace under the welcome of the heavenly generals.

Long queues formed in front of the four heavenly gates. A large number of immortals poured into the heavenly court and gathered towards the Miluo Palace. In a blink of an eye, the entire Miluo Palace was filled with immortals.

Auspicious clouds rose up around the Miro Palace, and on the auspicious clouds stood a large number of immortals. Hundreds of millions of immortals surrounded the entire Miro Palace.

This is the first time it has been so lively since the fall of the ancient demon court and the establishment of the heavenly court!
Outside the Miro Palace, vast immortal light was rising and endless auspicious clouds were lingering. Haotian looked at the scene around him and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Not bad!

Haotian finally felt a bit of the majesty of the ruler of the three realms.

At the same time, the surrounding human immortals were also looking at the scene with curiosity.

It was also the first time for everyone to come to the Heavenly Palace. The Heavenly Palace before them gave everyone a great shock. Even the Wanxiang Taoist, who was a great quasi-saint at the time, felt a little surprised when he came to the Heavenly Palace, not to mention the immortals below the Golden Immortal level before them.

After all, this is where the masters of the three realms live, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is far richer than that of the human world.

Coupled with the will of heaven that looms over this place, the majesty of the Heavenly Palace has reached its peak. These majesties are useless to powerful people like Wanxiang Taoist, but they are still very useful in front of a group of human immortals.

After entering the Heavenly Palace, all the immortals were shocked by the majesty of the Heavenly Palace. They held their breath involuntarily, with a solemn look on their faces.

Of course, no matter how shocked they were, they were all born from the human race and had the same bloodline. How could they turn to heaven just because of shock?
If it weren't for the order from the clan's ancestor, everyone would definitely not come here!

Just as everyone was thinking, endless golden light rose up from the Miro Palace. Nine golden dragons circled between heaven and earth, interweaving to form a nine-dragon chair!
A brilliant golden light burst out, and in the rich golden light, a huge Dharma body appeared in the void, and the vast will of heaven swept out.

The surprise in the eyes of the immortals became even greater, and they immediately bowed and said, "The little immortals pay their respects to the Lord of Heaven!"

"All the immortals, please don't be polite!"

"Thank God Haotian!"

Haotian looked at the hundreds of millions of immortals densely packed around him, and his solemn voice resounded through the void:

"There are a group of immortals in the human world, who are highly skilled in Taoism and have made great contributions in suppressing the water veins in the mountains. I hereby appoint them as mountain gods and river gods. They will take charge of the authority of heaven on my behalf, suppress the water veins in the mountains, eat immortal salaries, be included in the immortal class, and enjoy the offerings of the people in the human world!"

"Any True Immortal will be granted a ninth-grade divine post; any Mystical Immortal will be granted a seventh-grade divine post; any Golden Immortal will be granted a fifth-grade divine post!"

"Appreciate this!"

As the words of Lord Haotian fell, the vast will of heaven was aroused. Lord Haotian raised his hand and a golden light split into thousands. In the Miro Palace, billions of golden lights rose up and merged into the body of every human immortal present.

The next moment, a mysterious force merged into the bodies of the human immortals. Everyone felt that the connection between their bodies and the water veins and mountains that they had suppressed had tripled!
Originally, everyone could only mobilize 30% of the power of the mountains and rivers, but now everyone can mobilize 100% of the power of the mountains and rivers!
At the same time, as this golden light entered the body, the authority of the Heavenly Dao was bestowed upon the body, and the aura of everyone suddenly increased greatly. Depending on the size of their priesthood, the aura of everyone was enhanced to varying degrees.

For those with ninth-grade priesthood, their aura increases to the equivalent of that of an early True Immortal. For those with seventh-grade priesthood, their aura increases to the equivalent of that of an early Mysterious Immortal. For those with fifth-grade priesthood, their aura increases to the equivalent of that of an early Golden Immortal.

These are the powers carried by the priesthood itself, which can be superimposed with one's own Taoism!

As the golden light entered the body and the divine duties returned to their positions, the robes of hundreds of millions of immortals changed at the same time. The divine power condensed into divine armor on everyone, which exuded a faint will of heaven.

Depending on the grade, the color of the armor is different and the power it contains is also different.

In the blink of an eye, the carefree immortals gathered around turned into gods in heaven.

The service was unified, and the momentum was enhanced. In a blink of an eye, the momentum emitted by the people in the void increased significantly!

"Not bad!"

Haotian nodded with satisfaction, "Every year in the future, that is, every 365 years on earth, the Heavenly Court will give out immortal blessings, that is, the merits of the Heavenly Dao, to honor your contributions in suppressing the local areas!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Hundreds of millions of immortals were shocked as they felt the changes in themselves, and they quickly saluted. "Yes!"

Lord Haotian nodded with satisfaction, and then instructed:
"Once you enter the Heavenly Palace, you must obey the Heavenly Rules, manage the movement of the mountains and rivers on earth, and complete your divine duties. You must not make any mistakes. If you violate them, there will be thunder from the sky. You must remember this!"

"I respectfully obey your majesty's orders!"

The immortals bowed again.

"Go and serve in the human world."

"Yes!"

Haotian waved his hand, and all the human beings raised their hands to salute, then rode out on the clouds and returned to the human world again.

The round trip took only one hour in Heaven, but the aura of everyone was completely different!
At the same time, after this trip, everyone's identities became completely different.

·······
Just when Haotian was conferring titles on all the gods, many supreme elders of the human race gathered together again at Zhonghuang Mountain, and the 22nd clan meeting of the human race officially began.

Compared with the last human race meeting, the human race has gained one more Daluo Golden Immortal in just a few years.

Looking at the great elders around him, Wanxiang Taoist said:

"I believe you brothers have already known that Lord Haotian has summoned the immortals from the three realms to ascend to heaven and become gods. There are hundreds of millions of immortals in the tribe who suppress the mountains and rivers of the Nine Provinces. Although they are not immortals, they are better than immortals. Becoming immortals is the best outcome for them. Suiren and I have already asked the immortals to ascend to heaven and be conferred titles!"

A group of human race's supreme elders nodded their heads upon hearing this. Indeed, the immortals appointed by Emperor Yu were already doing the work of immortals, so directly becoming an immortal was the best choice!

"I have called all of you here today to discuss one thing."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes focused on Taoist Wanxiang, waiting for his next words.

"I want to send hundreds of millions more immortals to the Heavenly Court, mainly True Immortals and Mysterious Immortals, supplemented by a small number of Golden Immortals."

Without waiting for anyone to ask, Wanxiang Taoist started to explain:

"The Mountain God and the River God are the divine offices established by the Heavenly Court in the human world that we know of, but we are not sure whether there are other divine offices in the Heavenly Court."

"The Heavenly Court controls the Three Realms. This is the appointment of Daozu. It is upright and unstoppable. Similarly, we have no reason to stop it."

"If the Heavenly Court has other priesthoods in the human world, it is better to let our human race immortals take up the priesthoods instead of letting foreign races take up the priesthoods in our human territory!"

"Even if there is no such thing, the Heavenly Court will be in charge of the Three Realms in the future. It is always a good thing for the immortals of our human race to stay in the Heavenly Court."

"The Heavenly Court is currently in need of manpower, so this is the best time for our race to intervene in the Heavenly Court."

"I wonder what you guys think?"

Taoist Wanxiang looked at the group of supreme elders in front of him.

A group of supreme elders nodded when they heard this. What Taoist Wanxiang said was the fact, and it was also the current situation in the prehistoric world. Who dared to disobey the decree of the Taoist Ancestor?

Heaven will be the ruler of the three realms in the future, at least in name only, and this is not determined by anyone.

If this is the case, sending the immortals from the tribe to heaven is indeed a good choice.

"There is something to note."

Among the crowd, Dachao spoke.

Seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, Dachao spoke without hesitation:

"It's not that I don't trust the immortals in my clan. As the saying goes, everyone has their own aspirations. After entering the Heavenly Court, I'm afraid it's hard to say whether everyone in my clan will side with the Heavenly Court or with our human race."

"Becoming a god in heaven, holding divine duties and being governed by heavenly rules, it is not certain whether you will listen to heaven or your clan."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then a solemn look appeared on their faces.

The human race is the human race, and individuals are individuals.

There is no doubt that the human race is the most important among the human immortals, but at the same time, everyone has different ambitions. There are all kinds of birds in the forest. There are those who are loyal to the human race, and naturally there are also those who do not take their human identity seriously.

The human race is too large, and there are too many people in the race. Human beings are complex. Unlike the impartial law of nature, human nature is complex and unpredictable. There are good people and bad people, people with strong specific honor, and people with weak collective consciousness.

If not for this, during the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the Emperor of Man would not have specifically formulated laws and invented criminal laws.

Everything is fine when you are in the human race and bound by human rules. But if you leave the human race and become a part of the heavenly court, it is hard to say what will happen then.

Looking at the people who were thinking, Dachao spoke again:

"Take a step back and enter the Heavenly Court. Even if the immortals have human hearts, as time goes by, one or two years, a thousand or ten thousand years is fine, but what about a hundred thousand years, a huiyuan, or even tens of thousands of huiyuan?"

"Having been in heaven for a long time and holding the throne of God, it is inevitable that I put heaven first."

"Nothing else, it's just my identity!"

"As a human, you have lived in your clan since childhood, accepted the clan's heritage, and used the clan's resources. Naturally, you put your clan first. But if you leave your clan and go to heaven, it's hard to say for sure."

"Although it's a bit inappropriate to say this, this is human nature, and all living things are like this!"

After the words fell, a group of great elders nodded unconsciously, with solemn expressions on their faces.

What Dachao said makes sense. If we put ourselves in his shoes, it is hard to say whether we should listen to the heavenly court or to the human race after entering the heaven.

Upon hearing this, Taoist Wanxiang looked at Dachao with some surprise. He didn't expect that Dachao had also seen this step. He had originally planned to let Suiren raise this question.

But it doesn’t matter, whoever says it is just what they say!

"What Brother Dachao said makes sense. As the saying goes, identity determines one's stance."

"If I don't enter the Heavenly Court, the immortals in my clan will naturally give priority to my human race. If I enter the Heavenly Court, I will be both a human and an immortal. It is hard to say which side I will lean towards."

After the words were spoken, the expressions of the great elders became even more solemn.

If this is the case, sending immortals to heaven would be like making wedding dresses for others, wouldn't it?

Taoist Wanxiang glanced at everyone and spoke again:

“But in other words, if a human goes to heaven, he is a god, and he is also a human, which is better than a god who is not a human!”

"The way of heaven is fair. The rules of heaven are formed by the rules of heaven. They are beneficial to the Three Realms. Our human race is also a part of the Three Realms. Why should we violate the rules of heaven?"

"If it does not violate the rules of heaven, our human race will not confront the heaven. In this case, whether it is the heaven or the human race, this is not a choice."

"He is both a god in heaven and an immortal of the human race!" (End of this chapter)
