Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 259 Let’s just rely on our luck

Seeing the cushions that the Six Saints of Qinglian Island had brought out, Hongjun's mouth twitched. After all, he had prepared them for the Six Saints of Heavenly Dao, and now they had fallen into the hands of others.

However, Hongjun naturally could not refuse on the surface. He could not ask the Six Saints of Qinglian Island to return the cushion to him.

He simply pretended not to see it and said directly, "Since you are already here, let's discuss together how to fill in the list of gods."

As he spoke, two streams of light appeared in the Purple Sky Palace. The two streams of light transformed into a scroll and a wooden whip.

As the scroll slowly unfolded, it was three feet and three inches long, which corresponded to the three elements of heaven, earth and man. It was exactly the Book of the Gods.

The wooden whip was three feet six inches and a half long, with twenty-one sections. Each section had four talismans, for a total of eighty-four talismans. It was the divine whip.

"This is the Heavenly Book of the Conferred Gods, which can confer titles on 365 righteous gods and 84,000 stars and constellations."

"The three hundred and sixty-five divine positions are all on the Conferred God List. You can use the Divine Whip to fill in the names of your disciples on the corresponding divine positions, which is equivalent to signing the Conferred God List."

"When the great calamity of the Conferred Gods begins, all those who are on the Conferred Gods List will perish in the calamity, abandoning their physical bodies and entering the list with their true spirits, and be conferred as gods."

After saying this, Hongjun directly delivered the List of Gods and the Divine Whip to Zhen Yuanzi.

After all, the Heavenly Dao presided over the Conferred God Ceremony, so Hongjun naturally wanted the three Heavenly Dao religions to fill in first, in order to show his magnanimity.

Zhen Yuanzi looked at the List of Gods before him, thought about his own disciples, and finally handed the Divine Whip to Patriarch Hongyun.

He then said, "Master, every disciple of the Chan Sect is a virtuous and golden immortal. They should not be on the Conferred God List."

After that, he stopped talking. A typical dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water. It was clear that he wouldn't fill in his own disciples.

Ancestor Hongyun also followed suit and handed the divine whip directly to the second Buddhist monk from the West, and spoke.

"Master. Although not all of my disciples are virtuous and golden immortals, few of them are tainted by karma, and they also shouldn't be on this list of gods."

The two Western Buddhists would also not include their own disciples in the Conferred God List. So, they spoke without hesitation.

"My Western talents are dwindling, and I only have a handful of disciples. I certainly don't deserve to be a famous figure on this list of gods."

As the God-Slaying Whip fell into Di Jun's hands, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "My demon clan's heavenly palace is long gone, and we have no disciples. Even if we wanted to fill the position, there is no one to fill it."

In the blink of an eye, the Divine Whip was in Laozi's hand. At the same time, the Six Heavenly Saints all turned their gazes towards Laozi.

In response to this, Laozi simply sighed, and then sent the Divine Whip and the List of Gods back to Hongjun.

"Teacher Hongjun, before we brothers came to Zixiao Palace, our master had instructed us that disciples from Qinglian Island should not be on the list, so naturally there is no one to fill the list."

Good fellow, with just one sentence, I actually took away the entire Qinglian Island lineage. As if this matter had nothing to do with Qinglian Island.

This inevitably caused Hongjun to frown for a moment, and he immediately said, "The Conferred God Tribulation is destined by heaven, and you can't get through it by shirking it."

"In order to prevent the Conferred God Calamity from developing into an Infinite Calamity, I hope you can fill this Conferred God List."

"After all, until the 365 righteous gods on the Conferred God List return to their positions, the Conferred God Calamity will not end. It will only extend endlessly."

"As for the eighty-four thousand constellations, they will naturally be filled after the three hundred and sixty-five righteous gods return to their positions." "So what you need to do is to fill the three hundred and sixty-five righteous gods in the Conferred God List. And not one can be missing."

"I will give you three hundred years to consider. After three hundred years, I hope to see the completed Conferred God List."

As he spoke, Hongjun had already disappeared from the Purple Sky Palace, leaving behind the Six Saints of Heaven and the Six Saints of Qinglian Island, staring at each other.

Then, a series of heated arguments ensued. Each claimed that their own disciple was a Golden Immortal of Fortune and Virtue, and they wanted the other party to fill up the Conferred God List.

Three hundred years passed in the blink of an eye, yet no conclusion was reached. In the end, even Hongjun couldn't help but sigh.

He then said, "Since that's the case, then you should all return to your respective dojos. Three hundred years from now, the two Shangs in our Zixiao Palace will be deified."

In the original prehistoric trajectory, the signing of the Conferred God List was discussed three times. It was not until the third time that the Conferred God List was finally filled.

Among them, Laozi also sent some human beings to heaven to make up the number. This is how he barely gathered the 365 true gods.

So at this time, although Hongjun also felt that the Three Shangs should be included in the List of Conferred Gods, what Hongjun did not expect was that Laozi actually spoke directly.

"Teacher Hongjun, there's no need to go to such lengths. After all, even if we discuss it a few more times, no one would be willing to let their disciples die."

"So, I think that the Conferred God Tribulation is better left to fate. As for who will become a famous figure on the Conferred God List, we don't need to worry about that."

Hongjun had never thought that Laozi would actually make such a suggestion. But after thinking about it, he felt that this was feasible.

He simply nodded and said, "In that case, in this Conferred God Tribulation, each disciple of the sect will rely on their luck."

"When the time comes, whoever's disciple is on the Conferred God List will be conferred according to the arrangements in the Conferred God List. You saints are not allowed to interfere lightly."

As soon as Hongjun finished speaking, Zhen Yuanzi said directly, "Master, I wonder who should be in charge of the List of Conferred Gods and the Divine Whip?"

Everyone could see that Zhen Yuanzi wanted to obtain the List of Conferred Gods and the Divine Whip, in order to determine the outcome of the Conferred Gods Tribulation.

At this time, Hongjun said: "When the Conferred God Tribulation begins, the person with destiny will be reincarnated into the human race."

"A person destined by heaven will have the appearance of a flying bear. This is the characteristic of a person destined by heaven. When the time comes, whichever religion the person destined by heaven joins will be the one to deify him."

"That's the Conferred God List and the Divine Whip. They will automatically appear in the sect that conferred the gods on behalf of heaven. And they will be controlled by the one who is destined by heaven."

At this point, Zhen Yuanzi had to temporarily give up the idea of obtaining the List of Gods and the Divine Whip right away.

However, he had already secretly decided in his heart that he must accept the man of destiny who possessed the appearance of a flying bear into his own sect.

After all, only those who hold the destiny of the Conferred Gods can control the entire Conferred Gods Tribulation. This way, his disciples will not become famous people on the Conferred Gods List.

He could even use this opportunity of deifying himself to allow his disciples to accumulate merits, which would definitely be considered killing two birds with one stone.

But the others also understood what the chosen one represented, and inevitably they all had the same idea.
