Mythology: Erlang Shen begins to show his divine power in the heavens

Chapter 25: Yuanshi ascends to heaven and starts the Conferred God List
Talking about heaven.

After Yao Ji and others left, Lin Yuan arranged the gods and generals, thinking that the matters in heaven would end here for the time being.

But not long after.

Suddenly, purple air came from the east, and mighty heavenly music was faintly heard, echoing in the heavenly palace.

Those voices chanted the mysterious sound of Tao. When ordinary people heard them, they seemed to be able to understand the truth of the Tao and the path to immortality. From then on, they would eat clouds and drink air, and not eat the fireworks of the mundane world.

When the numerous heavenly soldiers, generals, immortal officials and immortal maidens heard this, they also seemed to be in a clear mind and the desires in their hearts were greatly reduced.

Lin Yuan raised his eyes and looked.

Then a Taoist in a green robe came riding on a cloud.

But it is different from other immortals and gods.

The other immortals and gods all rode on a cloud accompanied by a wisp of mist, but the Taoist in green robe was surrounded by auspicious clouds that filled the air and was stained with extremely luxurious purple air, showing his dignity and supremacy.

At first glance, he seemed to be the only one in this world and the origin of everything.

But judging from this style.

It’s never easy to come.

At least.

When Nuwa first appeared, it was just a rainbow of seven-colored light.

The Buddha from the West arrived, but his huge golden body sat on a lotus platform, emitting infinite Buddha light.

"Yuanshi Tianzun?"

When Lin Yuan saw the Taoist priest, he subconsciously thought of this name.

"You are polite, my Lord. I am Yuanshi."

Yuanshi Tianzun came closer and bowed to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan nodded:
"Isn't the Heavenly Master in seclusion? Why did he suddenly go to heaven?"

Yuanshi Tianzun said:
"The rules and regulations of heaven fell to the human world and disturbed me. I calculated and found that the catastrophe would come early, so I temporarily came out of seclusion and went to heaven to discuss this matter with the emperor."

"The great catastrophe is coming ahead of schedule?"

“Yes, Nuwa, the Goddess, and the Jade Emperor and I had planned a great catastrophe of conferring gods many years ago. During this catastrophe, all the powerful people who have reincarnated from ancient times will be conferred gods in heaven, enter the heavenly court, and obtain the status of gods.

Firstly, it is to enrich the power of Heaven, secondly, it is to stabilize the reincarnations of those ancient powerful men, and thirdly, it is to thoroughly establish human ethics and etiquette and regulate the human world.

Now, the rules and regulations of heaven have fallen into the mortal world, and they are absorbing the intention of all living things. They have the potential to transform into new rules of heaven and earth, but there is no need for us to define human ethics.

However, when new rules are issued, a catastrophe is bound to come, and I cannot sit idly by."

Yuanshi Tianzun said this and took out a magical golden jade scroll.

“This is the List of Conferred Gods, which I have specially prepared for dealing with the great catastrophe. Most of the powerful people who have reincarnated in ancient times already have their true spirits entrust to them. With each reincarnation, the name of the true spirit becomes more profound.

By now, the cause and effect have become deep, and when the great catastrophe is over, the original spirit will be included in the list of gods, and will suddenly realize the cause and effect of the past life. From then on, it will go to heaven to become a god, and will be under the jurisdiction of the heavenly court.

If there are cultivators who have made some merits during the catastrophe, they can also be included in the list, and from then on they will obtain a divine position, live forever, be immortal, and be worshipped by all living beings. "

Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows, took a quick glance, and actually saw the name Nezha.

This means that Nezha may be the reincarnation of an ancient powerful man.

Looked around again.

He did not find his name.

Yuanshi Tianzun seemed to see Lin Yuan's thoughts and said:
"The Great Emperor's whereabouts are unpredictable, and it is difficult to record the cause and effect of the Great Emperor in the Conferred God List."

Lin Yuan tilted his head:

"What exactly is going on with the reincarnation of these ancient masters? What happened in the ancient times? Why did Tianzun refine this Conferred God List?"

He was curious.

He had heard a lot of stories about conferring the gods in real life, but he had never heard of any version that said that those who were conferred the gods were originally the reincarnations of powerful people, and were arranged by Nuwa and Yuanshi Tianzun to be listed as gods.

Although Lin Yuan also knew it.

If he asked such a question, he might directly expose the fact that he was not an ancient god who had awakened his wisdom.

But obviously.

As for Nuwa, there are also Yuanshi Tianzun, the real ancient gods who probably survived directly from ancient times to the present day. Even if everyone in the world believes that Lin Yuan is the reincarnation of an ancient god.

There was no way either of them would believe it.

What's more, with Lin Yuan's current strength, there is no need for him to give himself the status of being the reincarnation of an ancient god.

“It won’t be too late to tell the emperor about the ancient events in detail later.

As for why the List of Conferred Gods needs to be refined, the Great Emperor only needs to know that those people whose true spirits are imprinted on the list have more or less committed heinous mistakes in ancient times, causing huge bloodshed, and have had a significant impact on the Three Realms and all living beings.

Therefore, one must continue to reincarnate and experience tribulations until the cause and effect are paid off and one returns to the right place. "

Yuanshi Tianzun said.

Lin Yuan nodded:
"So, what exactly do you want to discuss with me?"

Yuanshi Tianzun smiled and said:

“There are some people on the Conferred God List who have a close relationship with the Great Emperor, such as Nezha. He should have gone through two more death tribulations before he could achieve perfection, but the Great Emperor is now of noble status, so when one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit.

Nezha and the emperor are well aware that he might be able to avoid death, and there is no need for his soul to be included in the List of Gods, just a little of his true spirit can be placed on the list.

In addition, if the Great Emperor is willing, some ordinary people can be put on the list and transformed into gods in one step."

Lin Yuan was stunned, and looked at Yuanshi Tianzun with strange eyes.

This old boy.
“Nezha does not need his soul to be included in the list. As for ordinary people, there is no such thing. However, I have a mortal dog named Xiaotian. Although he swallowed the dragon ball and gained enormous magic power and transformed into a human form, he is still a humble person.

I think it’s okay to put him on the list.”

Lin Yuan smiled and said along with the flow.

When Yuanshi Tianzun heard that Lin Yuan was going to arrange for a dog to be included in the Conferred God List, his eyelids twitched. In the end, he still didn't say anything, but just maintained a smile and said:
"In that case, please use your power to refine the Conferred God List. In this way, the Conferred God matters will be fully under the control of the Great Emperor."

He stretched out his hand, and the List of Gods flew towards Lin Yuan on its own.

Lin Yuan took it and did not directly perform the ritual. Instead, he asked:

"The Heavenly Lord came here, besides delivering this Conferred God List, there must be something else, right?"

Yuanshi Tianzun's smile seemed even more obvious:
"The great emperor is indeed very insightful. I came here to find a way out for my disciples. My disciples are also reincarnations of ancient masters, but their karma has basically been paid off in advance under my arrangement, so...
They don't need to go through this catastrophe again. I wonder if the emperor can agree to this?"

Lin Yuan was puzzled:

"Since their karma has been cleared, there is nothing to worry about. Why should they go through the tribulation again?"

Yuanshi Tianzun was overjoyed:

"So good, so good!"

Lin Yuan nodded.

Then, Yuanshi Tianzun said:
"I see that the great emperor has infinite magical power, but he seems to use very few profound Taoist methods. I have been comprehending the great Dao since the creation of the world, and I have mastered a lot of profound methods. Why don't we take this opportunity to discuss Taoism with each other?"

"can."

Lin Yuan nodded.

then.

The two of them discussed scriptures and philosophy deep in the heavenly palace.

Of course, most of the time it was Yuanshi Tianzun who spoke and Lin Yuan who listened.
