Chapter 154 Hongjun Takes in Another Disciple, Plotting to Accumulate Merit in the Underworld
In the Purple Cloud Palace, Taiqing, Yuanshi, Randeng, and Kunpeng, seeing Hongjun's fearful expression, were also very worried.
The position in the underworld is of great importance.
You can earn genuine merit every day.
However, they have offended the Wu tribe and Houtu, so they are definitely out of luck.
Now that the will of the earth has been restored, Houtu is incredibly powerful.
However, what shocked everyone even more was that the Primordial Holy Realm seemed to really exist, and they were very worried that this was true.
If this is true, it means that Ling Xiao, who died, will really be resurrected a thousand years later.
"Master, we must spread the word to mislead everyone and make them believe that Ling Xiao will not be resurrected."
Taiqing Laozi looked at Hongjun and spoke slowly.
Hongjun asked in confusion, "Why?"
Taiqing Laozi, his face full of worry, said, "Why not revive sooner, or later? Why did it have to be a thousand years later?"
"Moreover, this matter is known to all races."
"What is their purpose?"
"In my opinion, it is probably to gather the power of the beliefs of all living beings, and doing so may have truly brought Lingxiao back to life."
Hearing his words, everyone felt that they made sense.
Hongjun said, "Alright, then you should deliberately create some false images to make them believe that Lingxiao is completely dead, and spread the news to mislead the masses."
"In this way, on the one hand, he can strike at those who follow him, and on the other hand, he can spread the influence of the Xuanmen sect."
He was very satisfied with Laozi's intelligence.
And so, Taiqing and Yuanshi began to do it.
Soon, rumors spread like wildfire throughout the prehistoric world that the Primordial Holy Realm was a hoax.
In an instant, even those thoughtless beings were led astray and began to question the affairs of the Primordial Holy Realm.
Some even believe that Ling Xiao will never return.
Because his true spirit has perished.
Then Hongjun spread the word that the white-haired old man in Nuwa's Heaven and the three thousand sub-saints were actually his subordinates.
I did it just for fun.
This news was undoubtedly like a heavy hammer blow!
Even the Lich and Demon races, who had been looking forward to it, as well as the three innate races that followed Ling Xiao, and all those who were on good terms with him, began to feel angry.
Was Hongjun lying, or was what he said true?
People began to waver in their beliefs, and doubts began to creep into their hearts!
Sadness of sadness, anger of anger.
Hongjun was very satisfied with the result. He sat on the futon and looked at Randeng and Kunpeng.
"Are you two willing to become my disciples?"
Now, neither Jieyin nor Zhunti have explicitly severed their master-disciple relationship with him, but Hongjun knows that it is only a matter of time.
Those two brothers were as fiery as fire, especially Zhunti.
Currently, within the Xuanmen sect, only Taiqing and Yuanshi listen to him; he has far too few subordinates.
Therefore, Hongjun made an extraordinary exception and accepted Randeng and Kunpeng, who were not originally his disciples, as his disciples.
The two were overjoyed and stood up from the prayer mat, then solemnly performed the apprenticeship ceremony.
Hongjun told them to get up, and then directly bestowed two streams of Primordial Purple Qi.
"Sit down, and I will help you integrate your primordial spirit."
Time waits for no one. Now that the underground passage has been restored, the strength of his Xuanmen sect must be replenished quickly.
Overjoyed, the two immediately sat down cross-legged.
After being empowered by Hongjun's magic, the two directly refined the Primordial Purple Qi, and their cultivation level jumped from the peak of Quasi-Saint to the Heavenly Saint realm in one step!
Immediately afterwards, the Primordial Era proclaimed to Heaven and Earth that it had accepted two more disciples.
The people were deeply moved by the presence of two new saints.
As expected, we still need to cling to Hongjun's coattails.
Then, Hongjun bestowed upon Taiqing, Yuanshi, Kunpeng, and Randeng all kinds of spiritual treasures and supernatural powers.
"Kunpeng, you have founded the North Sea Demon Sect."
"Randeng, you will assist your senior brother Kunpeng in becoming the vice leader of the Demon Sect."
"Remember, recruit many disciples to strengthen the North Sea Demon Sect."
The two bowed in gratitude.
Hongjun also bestowed upon the two a supreme innate treasure and several top-grade innate spiritual treasures upon each of them.
Seeing this scene, Taiqing and Yuanshi felt extremely sad, but Kunpeng Randeng was, after all, truly of one mind with the Xuanmen.
Their mindset gradually became much more peaceful.
From then on, they addressed each other as fellow disciples.
"Go back now, or do everything you can to extend your tentacles into the underworld."
Hongjun spoke slowly.
The four disciples of Xuanmen—Taiqing Yuanshi, Kunpeng Ran Deng, and others—all bowed and agreed.
At this moment, only Hongjun remained in Zixiao Palace.
"Fellow Daoist Karma, you may come out now."
As Hongjun spoke in a low voice, a ripple spread through the void, and a black-haired young man appeared before them.
He was surrounded by countless causal forces, making him the Causal Demon God among the three thousand demon gods.
At this moment, his cultivation level was revealed; he was actually a Great Dao Saint.
With every gesture, the entire universe resounds with a humming sound.
Hongjun smiled wryly.
In reality, of the three thousand Chaos Gods, some did not truly die; most were reincarnated.
It was during this time that Hongjun met the God of Cause and Effect.
The two were old friends back in the chaotic era.
"What is it?"
The Demon God of Cause and Effect had cold eyes and asked a question.
"I need to trouble you with this matter, fellow Daoist. Go deep into the Chaos and find those demons and gods who did not support Pangu's creation of the world."
"Tell them that if I, Hongjun, can control the entire prehistoric world in the future, I will share the prehistoric world's fortune with them."
Hongjun always felt a vague sense of crisis, so he wanted to gather some powerful people to strengthen his control and have them do things for him.
Just like this causal demon god, they listen to him very well.
"it is good."
Myths about cause and effect are rare; some have simply disappeared.
Hongjun thought to himself, "So what if he was a demon god in the past? In the end, I still have to restrain him. Once my strength increases, one day I will crush the Underworld and avenge the humiliation I suffered in the Underworld."
Meanwhile, in the Netherworld...
Houtu began distributing positions.
"In the underworld, there is a King of the Underworld whose power and status are second only to mine."
Inside Pingxin Palace, Houtu Niangniang, who had transformed into Pingxin, sat regally, gazing upon the assembled deities.
In the original primordial timeline, the Underworld Emperor was the Great Emperor of Fengdu.
Now that the underworld has emerged ahead of schedule, Fengdu is still nowhere to be found.
"Little sister, this position should be reserved for that person."
Xuanming stood up and said.
Why not keep the good stuff for your own family?
As for the Wu tribe, they have all become Houtu's maternal family, and the Netherworld is their own domain, so they don't need to compete for any so-called positions.
Houtu smiled slightly; she knew that Xuanming referred to Lingxiao.
"Sister, a thousand years later, Lingxiao will return. If he so desires, he will be the ruler of the underworld, on par with me, and will govern everything in the netherworld."
"And this King of the Underworld will also be under our control."
Houtu turned her gaze to Lingxiao and said, "Fellow Daoist, your words have enlightened me. This King of the Underworld can govern the Five Ghost Emperors, the Ten Kings of Hell, and numerous Yin soldiers and generals."
"It holds an extremely important position, but I am willing to give it to my fellow Daoist."
