Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 1793 Yellow Lantern Legion
The White Tiger was shocked. He didn't quite understand what the Jade Emperor meant. Was he going to execute him, or dismiss him from his job?
If it were the former, even if he were outmatched by swords and spears, he would still put up a fight.

If it's the latter, then he's free.

Is there such a good thing?

He subtly gave Xuanwu a wink, knowing there were many questions he couldn't ask, but Xuanwu had invested in Phoenix at the beginning of its "startup" and could ask on his behalf.

Unlike the Dragon and Phoenix Gods, who were mortal enemies, he had always had a good relationship with Xuanwu.

Since the matter also involved himself, Xuanwu naturally wanted to find out the details.

The burly-looking middle-aged man pondered for a moment, then asked, "May I ask Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this phrase, 'possessing a portion of the power of the Overwatch God'?"

Phoenix's tone remained unchanged: "Your concern is that the border cannot do without the four of you for even a moment. My idea is to extract all the magic power of the Supervising God and divide it into 3600 parts, to be given to the successors. The God can then retire successfully and enjoy peace. In this way, all parties can benefit. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

You've gone too far! You're trying to kill me!
The guard clenched his fists, his eyes filled with chilling killing intent, and strained his spine, preparing to launch a sudden attack.

But when he met Phoenix's calm gaze, his anger instantly cooled, and the power in his spine vanished without a trace. Under the other's gaze, he couldn't even lift a finger.

He couldn't win! Even with the killing intent amplified by the Jade Emperor, he felt fear. His hunting instinct as a divine beast reminded him that there was a vast gap between them, and if he made the first move, he would be doomed.

Clench your fist, release it, clench it again, and release it again.

Finally, he sighed. He was simply outmatched; there was nothing more to say. That's just how reality is in the primordial world.

"Grateful for Your Majesty's kindness, I am willing to relinquish my power and enjoy peace."

Phoenix smiled slightly: "That's right. As a senior, God-King should give newcomers some opportunities. In your spare time, you can travel around the beautiful landscapes of the prehistoric world, gather a few friends, and sing and drink together. Wouldn't that be a wonderful thing?"

The supervising soldier said with a mournful face, "Your Majesty is absolutely right."

Phoenix beckoned to Old Sha beside him, "Come on, bring some wine!"
The immortal version of "releasing military power with a cup of wine" is "releasing magical power with a cup of wine."

Old Sha served each of the four divine lords a cup of immortal wine.

Phoenix raised his cup, and the four divine lords followed suit with different expressions. All eyes turned to the White Tiger, who was seen drinking the immortal wine in one gulp with a bitter expression on his face.

"Good!" Phoenix took out a lantern made in the shape of the coffin palace lantern.

She transmitted a message using her divine sense. The white tiger was first shocked, then secretly pleased. It turned out that she didn't want to kill him. You should have said so earlier.

In front of the other three deities, he poured all his magical power into the lantern.

The golden killing aura was extremely aggressive. As soon as it left the body, it tended to fly in all directions. Venus, who was also a killing star, was very familiar with this thing. He subconsciously wanted to hide behind the pillar, but he stopped abruptly after only moving his right foot half a step.

Phoenix reached out and gently touched the lantern, instantly activating the magic array inside. The killing intent was forcibly absorbed into it, and no longer could be seen.

Taibai Jinxing sighed inwardly, marveling at the Jade Emperor's remarkable governance and profound Taoist magic; Haotian's defeat was no injustice. Baihu's face turned deathly pale; his cultivation level, comparable to a Quasi-Saint, plummeted, almost falling back to the mortal realm. Fortunately, his magical power came from his own bloodline, which was now undamaged. With some time and the expenditure of some spiritual materials, he could still return to his peak.

Old Sha poured him a drink separately, and Phoenix drank another drink with him.

This time, Baihu drank much more freely. He was indeed in a state of exhaustion and injury, having lost too much magic power, to the point that he had no feeling in his lower limbs and had become completely paralyzed. He would have to use a wheelchair for a long time to come. The price was indeed terrible, but he had broken free of his shackles and was completely free!

He no longer had to go to the far west and deal with those strange creatures day after day, year after year.

"I was overwhelmed with emotion for a moment, and I beg Your Majesty's forgiveness."

"My dear minister, you are innocent, you are innocent."

Phoenix plans to use the far west as a pilot area first. It just so happens that the Holy Mother Turtle Spirit has laid off a large number of immortals. In the past five hundred years, most of the evil spirits that Mulian released have been captured and brought back to the underworld. These guys have nothing to do, so let's find something for them to do.

A month later, the 3600 immortals who had been transported to the primordial world returned to the Heavenly Court. The immortals were filled with emotion, realizing how wonderful the Heavenly Court was only after leaving it.

They asked each other, "Why have we been called back? Are we to return to our posts in Heaven?"
Phoenix is ​​too busy to communicate with everyone individually, and as the Heavenly Emperor, he doesn't need to do such a thing.

Zhang Jie and Tao Rong were once bandits from Huanghua Mountain. After surrendering to Wen Zhong, they followed him all the way and eventually became one of the twenty-four marshals of the Thunder Department.

They were the first immortals dismissed by Duobao.

After receiving the imperial decree granting them an audience, the two excitedly entered the Tongming Hall. After an incense stick had burned, they emerged with strange expressions.

A group of immortals who had transported the primordial world surrounded them, inquiring about their audience at the Tongming Palace.

Zhang Jie raised his right hand, revealing a golden ring on his middle finger, and a lantern appeared in his left hand.

He said, "His Majesty has ordered us to establish the Yellow Lantern Legion to guard the borders of the primordial world. A thousand years later, those who perform exceptionally well will be reinstated as immortals."

The moment he had a thought, an immense amount of magical power was transmitted from the ring. After merging with his own magical power, a golden lightning bolt far exceeding the limit of his magical power was instantly formed.

He was startled. Was casting such a powerful spell in the Heavenly Court an act of rebellion?
He quickly tried to control it. The craftsmanship of the ring far exceeded his expectations. Although it was an external force, he could control it as easily as if it were his own arm.

He then crafted warhorses and weapons according to his own habits. The magic power within the ring was incredibly docile, allowing him to shape it at will.

This level of consumption is negligible compared to the enormous mana in the ring, far from being enough to "recharge" it with a lantern.

He then cooperated with Tao Rong, their magical powers connected through the ring, and with a thought, a war palace rose from the ground.

Upon witnessing this scene, many immortals immediately realized the ring's power. Experiencing the magic of a higher realm ahead of time would undoubtedly be of great benefit to their cultivation. However, they hesitated about venturing to the border of the primordial world, as they had heard it was fraught with danger and only quasi-saints could survive.
There aren't many immortals with an adventurous spirit, but there are quite a few as well. They crave power and yearn to advance further in their lives.

In just three days, they gathered 3600 immortals. Then, led by Zhang Jie and Tao Rong, they went to the far west to replace the White Tiger as the military supervisor and guard the border of the primordial world.
