The list of gods!
Anyone who has read Investiture of the Gods or other fantasy novels should know the origin of this magical artifact.

According to the setting, this is a treasure bestowed upon the Heavenly Emperor by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun. It was jointly drafted and discussed by the Chan Sect, the Jie Sect, and the Human Sect to record the divine positions conferred by the Jade Emperor in the Heavenly Court.

Initially, Jiang Ziya was in charge of this task. Through the Shang-Zhou War in the human world, the most outstanding talents were selected from the dead disciples of the three religions and the heroic spirits of the generals, and were used to appoint the 365 righteous gods of the Heavenly Court.

From then on, the Jade Emperor officially became the rightful ruler of heaven and earth, governing the Three Realms and the Six Paths, and his greatest reliance was the Investiture of the Gods!

This is because the Investiture of the Gods conferred titles upon all the immortals and gods. Apart from a few who achieved sainthood in their physical bodies, all the remaining gods of the Heavenly Court left their names on the list and entrusted a wisp of their true spirit to it. As long as the true spirit does not perish, even if they die, they can be reborn as immortals.

At the same time, the Jade Emperor can also control the life and death of the gods at any time. With just a thought, he can make most of the gods on the list ignorant and turn them into clay puppets who only know how to obey orders.

Of course, this is the world of Dark Myth, so the specific details will definitely be different.

Wu Xian had inquired about this matter with Yang Jian and Nezha, and learned that although a great war had taken place between the Shang and Zhou dynasties to select righteous gods, they had never heard of an existence like Dao Ancestor Hongjun, and the origin of the Investiture of the Gods had always been a mystery.

All they knew was that the Jade Emperor had possessed this treasure since the establishment of the Eastern Heavenly Court, but he rarely used it, and they were also unaware of the specific function of the Investiture of the Gods.

Just then, the Investiture of the Gods in the Jade Emperor's hand shone brightly, and the names written on it lit up, from which powerful figures emerged.

Wu Xian's expression changed slightly, but not because these figures brought pressure. Rather, he had already used the Mustard Seed Sumeru Divine Power and the Four Symbols and Five Elements Sealing Array to seal many immortals and gods in the Lingxiao Palace within his body space. However, he did not expect that the Jade Emperor could still use the Investiture of the Gods to summon their true spirits. Moreover, it seemed that their strength had not been weakened much.

This shows that the mechanism and power of this magical artifact are even greater than he expected.

buzzing-

The process of opening the Investiture of the Gods seemed long, but in reality it was extremely short. In the blink of an eye, all 365 righteous gods had returned to their positions.

Upon seeing this, the Jade Emperor's lips curled slightly, and then his voice, cold and majestic, resounded throughout heaven and earth—

"Activate the Celestial Star Array!"

The next second, the originally auspicious and radiant Thirty-Six Heavens instantly transformed into an endless night sky, with 365 enormous main stars appearing and shining brightly in the sky. Countless scattered streaks of light adorned the darkness around them, and the star curtain was drawn back, revealing an infinitely brilliant and boundless expanse.

These are 365 primordial stars born at the beginning of creation, each symbolizing different laws and powers. They are the supreme treasures of the Heavenly Court, and their power is unparalleled in the Three Realms. Even those with great supernatural abilities would find it difficult to withstand this formation for long.

buzzing-

As the grand formation began to operate, the 365 main stars shone brightly, bursting forth with intense light and heat in an instant.

The boundless and terrifying power condensed, like a giant millstone, as if returning to the time before the creation of heaven and earth, and finally transformed into an immeasurable torrent that swept over and crushed Wu Xian in the great formation.

As the terrifying pressure descended, Wu Xian remained calm and let out a long roar that almost made the void tremble and caused the stars to vibrate.

Immediately afterwards, he raised the golden cudgel in his hand, which he had been holding for a long time, and shot it into the sky, shattering the torrent of starlight that was crashing down upon him.

Rumble————

The violent magical power swept across the boundless starry sky, instantly raising towering waves in the sea of ​​stars. A powerful will pierced through heaven and earth, and the three hundred and sixty-five main stars dimmed slightly, like flickering candlelight, as if they were about to be extinguished at any moment.

But... it just won't die!
"Hey! Not bad, you're pretty durable!"

Seeing this, Wu Xian began to wildly swing his golden cudgel, pushing forward step by step under the immense pressure of the annihilating stars.

Wherever the iron rod passed, the world lost its color, stars were torn apart, and the countless stars trembled continuously, their power churning the heavens and earth, even hinting at decay. At the same time, the Jade Emperor, who was presiding over the Star Array, was slightly shaken upon witnessing this scene. Clearly, Wu Xian's strength had far exceeded his expectations.

Compared to when he fought him before, Wu Xian was clearly much stronger, and this rate of growth did not stop, but increased steadily with the struggle against the Star Dou Formation, as if there was no end in sight.

If this continues, not only will the Zhou Tian Star Array be broken, but Wu Xian, after his ultimate sublimation, will also become even more troublesome. Even the one from the Dou Shuai Palace might find it difficult to suppress him.

Thinking of this, the Jade Emperor's heart sank. He glanced in the direction of the Thirty-Three Heavens, and then on the Investiture of the Gods in his hand, in addition to the three hundred and sixty-five righteous gods, several more divine titles flashed, and they were all ranked very high.

The Great Emperor of the Purple Star in the North Pole.

The Great Emperor of Longevity in Antarctica.

Emperor Gouchen Shanggong.

Following the example of Heaven, the Earth God and the Sovereign.

These are all powerful beings in the Heavenly Court who wield great authority. They are known as the Four Emperors, and in terms of status, they are only below the Jade Emperor and the Three Pure Ones, above all living beings. Their strength is also extraordinary.

Soon, several sighs reached the Jade Emperor's ears, and then four powerful magical forces traversed space and poured into the Star Array.

buzzing-

"Ok?"

Within the grand formation, Wu Xian, who had just shattered a star, suddenly paused, his gaze sweeping across the surrounding sea of ​​stars, a hint of surprise rising in his eyes.

Just now, he felt the Zhou Tian Star Array pause slightly for a moment, and then start operating again.

Moreover, the formation seemed to have undergone a completely new change, especially the 365 main stars that symbolized the authority of the Heavenly Court, which gave Wu Xian a completely different feeling than before.

If the previous 365 main stars were fighting their own battles, forcibly forming a whole that seemed perfect but was actually full of flaws.

Now, the 365 main stars seem to have found their center, their orbits are mysterious and difficult to describe, each performing its own function in perfect harmony, and they have increased their original power to 20% or even more.

Just as he was thinking this, all 365 main stars trembled simultaneously, and boundless power exerted immense pressure, affecting every corner of his body.

The feeling was as if the entire starry sky was pressing down on him, and every second, this pressure would increase, making it impossible for him to move an inch.

"Hehe! This formation... is not bad!"

Feeling the pressure emanating from all parts of his body, Wu Xian's eyes blazed with golden flames, filled with a boiling, passionate fighting spirit.

The next second, he suddenly unleashed his power, leaped into the air, and swept away thousands of miles of starlight. Following his senses, he swung his staff and struck the location of the array's core.

Boom——

The starlight suddenly shone brightly, and that spot of void suddenly twisted and deflected, as if it had swallowed the power contained in Wu Xian's chopping strike. Through the distribution of the three hundred and sixty-five main stars, it was eventually dissolved into nothingness.

"Haha! Come again!"
