Chapter 41 Conferring Titles on the Gods
Cola Novels readers voted "Primordial Era: This Heavenly Emperor is Too Powerful" to be among the top-ranked Xianxia novels!
Upon hearing that even Zhulong was going to receive a title, the Four Dragon Kings fell silent.
It seems that without showing sincerity, it really won't work.
After all, even Zhulong admitted defeat, so if they didn't, what chance would they have?
If they retaliate against you then, it will be difficult to handle.
After thinking for a moment.
Ao Guang spoke first, saying, "When my East Sea was granted this title, it presented a low-grade innate spiritual treasure, a hundred boxes of spiritual materials, a hundred bushels of East Sea pearls, and ten clam maidens as tribute."
Every ten thousand years thereafter, they shall offer ten chests of spiritual materials, ten bushels of pearls from the East Sea, and ten clam maidens.
As soon as he finished speaking, the other three Dragon Kings of the Seas chimed in unison, "Me too!"
However, Zhulong frowned after hearing this and said, "Is this your sincerity?"
Even at this point, you're still being stingy with your treasures?
Aren't you afraid of saving up money but not being able to use it?
snort!
Let's make a change!
The offerings made upon receiving the title, along with 200,000 aquatic creatures of the Celestial Immortal level, a thousand chests of spiritual materials, and a thousand bushels of pearls from the East Sea.
As for the clam maiden...
This time, we will first send one hundred people to pay tribute.
Every ten thousand years thereafter, they will offer one hundred chests of spiritual materials, one hundred bushels of pearls from the East Sea, and ten clam maidens.
Otherwise, how can we show the sincerity of the dragon race?
Don't forget Kunpeng's side; this time, he can easily bring along millions of demons from the Heavenly Court.
The gap is too large, failing to reflect the value of the dragon race.
You know the consequences.
There are two ways to serve it.
One way is to be served to someone, and the other way is to be invited to sit at the table.
Do you want to be served on the table?
Upon hearing Zhulong's words, the Four Dragon Kings immediately shook their heads vigorously.
Should it be served?
That's not a nice thing to say.
Then the four Dragon Kings responded in unison, "We will obey our Ancestor's orders!"
"Um!
Go back and get ready!
Once things are settled with Kunpeng, it will be time for him to be officially appointed.
And this time won't be long.
"We'll take our leave!"
...
Time flies.
A thousand years can pass in the blink of an eye.
is the day.
The weather was fine and sunny, with not a cloud in the sky.
The majestic South Heavenly Gate was now filled with cultivators.
Millions of demons, led by Kunpeng, lined up for a long distance.
On the dragon side, Zhulong led the Four Sea Dragon Kings.
He led hundreds of thousands of aquatic creatures to arrive on time.
Haotian stood solemnly before the South Heavenly Gate, holding the Investiture of the Gods in one hand and the God-Slaying Whip in the other.
Yaochi stood beside him, with Yaoji and Taibai Jinxing behind him.
Looking at the vast group of cultivators before him, Haotian's heart was filled with excitement.
Countless Dao Ancestors!
From this day forward, I, Haotian, have finally stood up!
The Heavenly Court will no longer be a place in name only.
Rather, it is a real, tangible organization capable of controlling the primordial chaos.
After observing for a moment, Haotian declared loudly, "Heaven's Way is above!"
I, Haotian!
He was appointed as the Heavenly Emperor by the Daoist Ancestor.
Today, at the South Heavenly Gate, I hereby bestow titles upon all the gods of the Heavenly Court!
Kunpeng stepped forward to receive his investiture!
Upon hearing this, Kunpeng came before Haotian.
He bowed deeply and said, "Your subject is here!"
Haotian glanced at Kunpeng and then unfurled the Investiture of the Gods in his hand.
He then slowly spoke, "I, Haotian, in the name of the Heavenly Emperor, hereby bestow upon Kunpeng the title of Grand Commandant of the Heavenly Court."
Assist me in commanding all the Heavenly Army's troops, overseeing all military campaigns, and training the Heavenly Army's soldiers.
Upon hearing the imperial decree from Haotian, Kunpeng bowed and said, "Your subject Kunpeng receives the imperial decree!"
Thank you for the imperial decree, Your Majesty!
After expressing his gratitude, Kunpeng stepped aside.
After bestowing titles upon Kunpeng, Haotian then said, "Zhulong, step forward to receive your investiture!"
"Your subject is here!"
"In the name of the Heavenly Emperor, I hereby appoint Zhulong as the Prime Minister of the Heavenly Court."
Assist me in managing all affairs of the Heavenly Court.
"Your subject obeys the imperial decree!"
Thank you for the imperial decree, Your Majesty!
After Zhulong withdrew, Haotian spoke: "Yingzhao, step forward to receive your investiture!"
"Your subject is here!"
"By imperial decree, Yingzhao is appointed as the Righteous God of the Fighting Department!"
"Assist me in ruling the Golden Palace, reside in the Dipper Palace, and occupy the head of all the celestial constellations."
"Your subject obeys the imperial decree!"
Thank you for the imperial decree, Your Majesty!
"Bifang, step forward to receive your investiture!"
"Your subject is here!"
"You are hereby appointed as the righteous god of the fire department."
Leading the gods of fire, he patrolled the primordial wilderness, observing good and evil.
"Your subject obeys the imperial decree!"
Thank you for the imperial decree, Your Majesty!
"Lei Zu, step forward to receive your investiture!"
"Your subject is here!"
"You are hereby appointed as the Righteous God of the Thunder Department."
He commands the Thunder Department, brings forth clouds and rain, and ensures the growth and development of all things; he also punishes the rebellious and eliminates the wicked.
A tribulation of lightning was established to test the cultivation of all beings in the primordial world.
All cultivators in the primordial world who embark on the path of immortality must undergo the test of lightning tribulation.
Those with profound merit can avoid being struck by lightning.
Those who have neither merit nor demerit will suffer the tribulation of the Three-Nine Thunders.
Those with shallow karma will suffer the sixty-nine lightning tribulations.
Those with heavy karma will suffer the ninety-nine tribulations of lightning.
If any other cultivator interferes with the tribulation, the tribulation will be intensified.
"The highest punishment will be personally administered by me, using the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning as the tribulation."
"Your subject obeys the imperial decree!"
Thank you for the imperial decree, Your Majesty!
"Nine-Headed Serpent, step forward to receive your investiture!"
"Your subject is here!"
"You are hereby appointed as the Righteous God of the Plague Department!"
"Your subject obeys the imperial decree!"
Thank you for the imperial decree, Your Majesty!
"The ghost carriage, step forward to receive your decree!"
"Your subject is here!"
"You are hereby appointed as the Righteous God of Smallpox!"
"Your subject obeys the imperial decree!"
...
Haotian was busy bestowing titles upon the gods. For each godhood conferred, a wisp of the primordial spirit of the corresponding cultivator would be transferred into the Investiture of the Gods list.
Meanwhile, the primordial world was in complete chaos.
First, Haotian has now publicly bestowed titles upon the gods, announcing to all living beings in the primordial world that the Heavenly Court is now fully operational.
From now on, their words and actions will be under the supervision of the Heavenly Court.
For other cultivators, even if they are unhappy, they can only silently accept it.
However, for the Six Saints, Haotian was already fully powerful at this time.
This means that all the conditions that Haotian had previously negotiated will now be put into practice by him.
If that were all, it wouldn't be enough to cause an uproar among the cultivators of the prehistoric world.
What truly caused an uproar among the cultivators of the prehistoric world was the appointment of the Thunder God by Haotian just now.
Tribulation lightning?
Only those cultivators with profound merit are eligible for exemption.
When other cultivators become immortals, they must at least undergo the Tribulation of Three Nine Thunders.
We're all in the cultivation world, who doesn't have a junior member?
Haotian has put shackles on the cultivators of the prehistoric world.
.....
a long time.
The imperial decrees from the six ministries of Heaven have been completed.
Haotian then turned his gaze to the Dragon Clan.
"Ao Guang, Ao Qin, Ao Run, and Ao Shun, step forward to receive your titles!"
"Your subject is here!"
"By imperial decree, Ao Guang was appointed as the Dragon King of the East Sea, Ao Qin as the Dragon King of the South Sea, Ao Run as the Dragon King of the West Sea, and Ao Shun as the Dragon King of the North Sea."
He commands the primordial dragon race, assists the gods of water and thunder, and is in charge of controlling clouds and rain.
"Your Majesty, we obey the imperial decree!"
After bestowing titles upon all the cultivators, Haotian put away the Investiture of the Gods.
He then said, "The gods have finished bestowing their titles. All of you gods under my command, please report to the Prime Minister."
The Prime Minister, Zhulong, reported this to me for approval.
I hope you will all work diligently and fulfill your duties conscientiously.
Otherwise, I will not let you off lightly!
"We obey!"
Then Haotian changed the subject and said, "Next, I will promulgate the Heavenly Rules!"
The Heavenly Rules apply not only to the gods of the Heavenly Court, but also to all cultivators in the primordial world.
The first rule of Heaven!
The purpose of establishing the Heavenly Rules was to maintain the stable and orderly operation of the primordial world.
If the Heavenly Rules become outdated or hinder the stability of the primordial world, they will be modified accordingly.
Any cultivator or force that violates the rules of heaven is disrupting the stability and order of the primordial world.
Such cultivators and forces have fallen into the demonic path and should be eradicated with swift and decisive action.
The second rule of Heaven.
Immortals and mortals are forbidden from marrying!
Those who violate this rule will have their cultivation abolished and will be reincarnated to start over.
.....
After the Heavenly Rules have been promulgated, I will later erect a stele of the Heavenly Rules at the Four Heavenly Gates.
I hope you will all behave yourselves!
Do not disobey!
Disobeying will result in arrest!
"I will heed His Majesty's instructions!"
Seeing that the matter was settled, Haotian said, "Everything is done!"
Each department entered the Heavenly Court in an orderly manner and began to perform its duties!
