Honghuang: I am Kuiniu, and I instructed Nuwa to create humans at the beginning.

When Bo Yikao learned that Zhang Guifang was leading a large army to attack the city, he was so frightened that he was at a loss what to do.

After all, the news that Lang Daoren and Bai Tianhao were killed, as well as that three of the Five Buddhas died and the life and death of the remaining two were unknown, had already reached Bo Yikao's ears.

Now that Zhang Guifang was pursuing the victory, how could Bo Yikao not worry? He immediately ordered someone to summon Shen Gongbao.

Shen Gongbao, who heard the news, showed no worry at all. He did not even rush to see Bo Yikao, but went to see Maitreya Taoist.

After seeing the Maitreya Taoist, Shen Gongbao said to him: "Fellow Maitreya Taoist, Zhao Gongming and the Three Heavenly Fairies of Jiejiao are here now."

"I'm afraid that we can't defend Nandu City with just these outer disciples of the Western Sect. As for now, the only option is for Fellow Daoist Maitreya to return to Mount Xumi to ask for reinforcements."

At this time, Taoist Maitreya was not so arrogant as to think that he and the pharmacist could defeat Zhao Gongming and the Three Fairies.

Therefore, he could not help but agree with Shen Gongbao's suggestion. Finally, he let Yaoshi stay in Nandu City and head directly to Mount Xumi in the west.

After watching the Taoist Maitreya go back to Mount Sumeru in the west to gather reinforcements, Shen Gongbao headed towards King Wen's palace.

Even at this moment, Shen Gongbao couldn't help but say to himself: "Go and invite more people. There are still many places on the Conferred God List anyway."

Shen Gongbao was extremely happy at this time. After all, as long as he could complete Niu Kui's instructions, he would not only have the hope of becoming a disciple of Jiejiao, but also a disciple of Penglai.

Today, in front of the two armies, Shen Gongbao naturally saw how wealthy the disciples of the Penglai lineage were. Each of them was standing on a ninth-grade lotus platform, and they had countless innate spiritual treasures.

Being able to worship such a wealthy master, how could he possibly lack innate spiritual treasures in the future? He might even have a chance to obtain a ninth-grade lotus platform.

So when Shen Gongbao went to see Bo Yikao, he couldn't help but smile. It was not until he was about to enter King Wen's palace that he completely stopped smiling and replaced it with a look of worry.

Finally seeing Shen Gongbao coming, Bo Yikao seemed to have found his organization. He hurried forward and said, "Master, what should we do?"

Shen Gongbao said solemnly: "Only if we let the Western Sect disciples cooperate with our army to defend the city, will we have a chance to defend Nandu."

"Now, Taoist Maitreya has returned to Mount Xumi in the west and asked the two saints in the west for reinforcements. So we just need to hold on until the reinforcements arrive, and Nandu City will be safe."

Hearing Shen Gongbao's words, Bo Yikao could not help but look at E Shun who was standing aside. After all, E Shun was a disciple of the Western Sect and was responsible for communication.

E Shun did not hesitate to do so and immediately assured Bo Yikao that the Western Sect disciples would fully cooperate with the defenders to defeat Zhang Guifang's army.

Then he turned around and went to the other courtyard. Not long after, he met the pharmacist and told him Bo Yikao's idea.

When he heard that the Western Sect disciples were to cooperate in defending the city, the pharmacist couldn't help but show a trace of worry on his face. After all, if he did that, he would probably have to face Zhao Gongming and the Three Heavenly Fairies.

Even his eldest senior brother was frightened and fled back in panic. If he faced those four siblings, he might not even have a chance to escape.

However, if the Southern Capital was breached by the Shang army during the time when Maitreya Taoist returned to Mount Xumi in the west, he would not be able to bear the responsibility.

After a moment, he thought of a great idea, which was to directly order nearly a hundred outer disciples of the Western Sect in the other courtyard to go up to the city wall.

After all, this means that there are enough people to serve as cannon fodder for him. Even if he really encounters Zhao Gongming and the Three Fairies, he can take the opportunity to escape.

Then he said directly: "Go back and tell King Wen that I will lead the disciples of the Western Sect to help him guard the southern capital." After hearing this, E Shun was delighted and hurried back to report the good news to Bo Yikao. At this time, the Medicine Master called the eight tribes over.

After whispering to them, he headed directly to the outer house, then gathered all the outer disciples of the Western Sect and headed towards the east city wall.

That's right, all those who followed the Medicine Master to the city wall were outer disciples of the Western Sect. None of the inner disciples or core disciples showed up.

After all, the pharmacist could not guarantee that he could really rely on this motley crowd to stop Zhang Guifang's army with the help of Zhao Gongming.

Even the pharmacist this time was here just to get these rabble on the Conferred God List. This was also what the two Western saints had told him when they came.

The two saints of the West naturally knew that since the Western religion had been involved in the Conferred God Contest, it would be absolutely impossible to get out of it unscathed.

Since there was no way to escape unscathed, he could only use his own tricks to defeat them. He took the opportunity to have the outer disciples of the Western Religion be included in the List of Gods.

Then they can find a way to use these people to control the Heavenly Palace. After all, only in the Heavenly Palace are there enough Western disciples, so it is not difficult for the two Western saints to control the Heavenly Palace.

As for the Conferred God List, it would slowly erase the self-consciousness of those on the list. The two Western saints had no worries at all.

After all, the Eight Treasures Merit Pool of Mount Xumi in the west can allow these people to completely return to their original nature. Although they will still be restricted by the List of Gods, their self-awareness will not be eroded.

In other words, the two saints in the West are now playing a big game. The key to this game is how many people from the West will be included in the list of gods.

At the same time, Western religion must preserve its vitality, so as to plan for the great prosperity of Western religion in the next kalpa.

This is also the reason why the two saints from the West did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of resources to forcibly cultivate the cultivation of these rabble to the early stage of Daluo Jinxian.

After all, there are not only 365 true gods on the Conferred God List. In addition, there are 84,000 stars.

The Western religion wanted to use these people to control the Heavenly Court and increase its voice in the Heavenly Court. It had to obtain the positions of the 365 true gods as much as possible.

Only those who have reached the realm of Daluo Jinxian or have made great contributions to the Conferred God Tribulation are qualified to be canonized as true gods, otherwise they can only be named stars.

In order to be able to control all of this, the two saints in the West have even begun planning to snatch Jiang Ziya from the hands of the Orthodox Sect.

After all, Jiang Ziya is the one destined to be a god, and he is the one with the most say in who will ultimately be given what godly title.

However, all this was done in secret, and even Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi did not notice anything wrong.

After all, the two saints in the West have been laying out their plans in the orthodox and unorthodox sects for more than just tens of thousands of years.

Moreover, in the original trajectory of the prehistoric times, the Western religion relied on their layout and eventually became the biggest beneficiary of the Conferred God Tribulation.

However, at that time, there were too few disciples in the Western Sect to withstand their attempts to insert themselves into the Heavenly Court. Therefore, they did not try to win over Jiang Ziya.

Now that the Western Religion is thriving, the two Western Saints naturally have such thoughts. (End of this chapter)
