Chapter 97 Emperor Banner

"hehe!"

Upon hearing this, Haotian gave a dry laugh and looked a little at a loss, as if he was shocked by the shocking remarks of "Yuchen Daojun".

After a long while, he finally said, "Daoyou Yuchen, please stop teasing me! I am the Heavenly Emperor, and my orders cannot even leave the High Heaven Palace. How can I be compared with you?"

The Heavenly Court was weak, and Haotian appeared harmless, but Han Yi knew in his heart that the other party would never want to be an emperor with only a title.

Just now, he asked Haotian who in this ancient world could be called a hero, and the first name he said was the former Lord of Heaven - the Demon Emperor Dijun!
Apparently...

Haotian, the Emperor of Heaven, also wants to be like Di Jun, ruling over all the heavens, looking down on the universe, reaching a height where all spirits worship him and all gods respect him, and let his name resound throughout the three realms, six paths, and all the worlds.

In this world, there is no living being who wants to be a puppet in name only.

only……

Haotian just hid his ambition very well!
If it weren't for the fact that the Twelve Golden Immortals were too arrogant in the future, he would not have made them submit to him and went to the Zixiao Palace to ask for help from the Taoist Hongjun!

"Yuchen Daojun" was not surprised by Haotian's denial. He just smiled and said, "Attitude is the mask of the heart, but if you wear a mask for too long, you can never take it off! It's like pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. If you pretend to be a pig for too long, you will inevitably be content with mediocrity like a pig and not make progress. You will no longer have the courage to roar like a tiger in the mountains or roar like a dragon in the sky! By then, who in this world can tell... whether you are a dragon or a snake?"

"Between the wooden geese, the dragon and the snake change!"

“Sometimes you are like a snake, sometimes you are like a dragon. Life is unpredictable. When you are a snake, you have to stay dormant in the mud and learn to live with earthworms and ants. When you are a dragon, you have to spread your wings and fly high into the sky.”

"In short, you should show your edge when it's time to show it, instead of holding it back all the time. Otherwise, people will think you are weak and can be bullied!"

Facing the words of "Yu Chen Dao Jun", Hao Tian was not excited, nor did he show any excitement. There was no change in his expression. He just said lightly: "So Daoist Yu Chen, when do you think is the right time? Of course, there are changes between the wood geese and the dragons and snakes, but Daoist friends should have heard that... the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!"

Zhao Gongming was confused by the two people's "witty" words. He wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say, so he could only choose to remain silent.

Yao Chi, on the other hand, had a thoughtful look on her face. She looked back and forth between Haotian and "Yu Chen Dao Jun", as if she was thinking about something extraordinary.

"Yuchen Daojun" smiled and said calmly: "It is true that a tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, but if you want to become a towering tree, how can you avoid the attacks of wind and rain?"

"A morning mushroom does not know the new moon and full moon, a cicada does not know spring and autumn, and a frog in a well is content to say that the sky is vast. If you don't climb the cliff, how can you appreciate the magnificent view of the mountains?"

"Fellow Daoist Haotian, I only want to ask you one question. Do you want to be the real Heavenly Emperor, rather than the puppet in name only?"

Haotian's face remained calm when he heard this, but his hands were trembling slightly. He said calmly, "Do you want to help me expand the Heavenly Court?"

Tens of thousands of immortals from the Jiejiao sect have come to pay homage. Although the strength of the practitioners varies, there are also many capable people. Haotian has also thought about seeking help from the sect leader Tongtian.

but……

When he first ascended the throne of Heavenly Emperor, he was tactfully rejected!

"Yu Chen Dao Jun" shook his head and said, "I can let Jiejiao disciples go to heaven to serve as officials. Even with the number of my Jiejiao disciples, it is not a problem to fill all the god positions in the heaven! But is that the heaven of His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven? Or is it the heaven of my Jiejiao?"

"This……"

Haotian paused when he heard this.

What “Yu Chen Daojun” said made a lot of sense. If he didn’t have his own team, even if he had people under him, he couldn’t be called a true Heavenly Emperor.

"Please ask fellow Taoist to teach me!"

Haotian thought for a moment, then stood up and bowed to "Yuchen Daojun".

"Yu Chen Daojun" smiled and said, "I can first send a few disciples from Jiejiao to heaven to assist you and build the basic framework of the heavenly court, but how to expand it depends on your ability!"

"but……"

"I do have an immature suggestion!"

"The situation in the prehistoric world has become rigid, and many forces are unwilling to see the Heavenly Court grow stronger. However, there are many ambitious people in the heavens and myriad worlds! It's just that due to the restrictions of the world level, it is difficult for them to achieve anything!"

"If you can build a gate to ascend to heaven and attract those who are capable, talented, and ambitious to join the Heavenly Court, I believe the Heavenly Court will surely grow rapidly!"

When Haotian heard this, he suddenly felt enlightened.

I have always wanted to select talents from the many forces in the prehistoric world and strengthen the Heavenly Court, but I have always ignored the various heavens and worlds adjacent to the prehistoric world.

Although there is not a single Daluo Golden Immortal in those worlds, if one selects carefully, one can still find some practitioners comparable to the Golden Immortal realm and the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

With these practitioners, it will be enough for the Heavenly Court to have the basic ability to operate!

As for the strong...

We can only find a solution from the ancient times!

It was Yao Chi Jin Mu who suddenly said, "Your words make sense, but those outstanding people in the heavens and myriad worlds are all the pride of their own world, or even the ruler of their own world. I'm afraid they are all a little arrogant. Even if we show them kindness, they may not be grateful!"

Upon hearing this, "Yuchen Daojun" smiled and said, "Daoyou, have you ever heard of the demon-summoning banner? Since there is a demon-summoning banner, why can't there be a Heavenly Emperor Banner?"

The demon-summoning flag is the most precious treasure of the demon clan. It is as big as a thread and more than four or five meters high. Above the white light, there is a flag hung. The light is divided into five colors and reflects thousands of auspicious rays. The flagpole is like a palace beam. The flag is fluttering, and the sky above it is hazy, as if there are black and white air. In the black and white air, there are green tadpoles swimming back and forth.

Controlled by the goddess Nuwa!
Any demon clan with some strength has a true spirit residing on it, and its life and death are controlled by the demon-summoning flag. As long as the demon-summoning flag is waved slightly, all the demon clan members will come to pay homage.

This is also the reason why the demon clan’s heaven can grow rapidly.

after all……

When the demon race was at its peak, there were more than hundreds of millions of great demons in the fairyland. Not every one of them was convinced by the Demon King, and if he wanted them to be obedient, he naturally had to use some means.

"I understand!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Chi nodded immediately.

Although she rarely fought with others, she was not stupid and naturally understood the meaning of the "Demon Summoning Banner". Haotian was even more direct and was already imagining what his "Emperor's Banner" should look like!

"Then I will take my leave first!"

"Yu Chen Daojun" smiled slightly, and took Zhao Gongming himself to bid farewell to Haotian and Yaochi. As for Zhao Gongming's good corpse Zhao Xuantan, he already had a deity status, but stayed in the Heavenly Palace.

This time, by coming to Heaven and making friends with Haotian, his goal has been achieved.

There's not much point in staying any longer.

In fact, Han Yi had thought about asking Tongtian Sect Master to select three to five hundred practitioners from the Jiejiao Sect to fill the thrones in the Heavenly Court.

But like this...

It can't prevent the arrival of the Conferred God Tribulation!

The essence of the catastrophe is actually that it is a disaster sent by the Heaven to practitioners in order to reduce the burden of the ancient world. Once the practitioner dies, the spiritual energy will return to heaven and earth.

Conferring deification is just an excuse, a pretext!
Even if the gods in heaven are perfect, the catastrophe will still come when it is time.

otherwise……

In the past, the demon heaven founded by Emperor Jun had ten great demon saints under its command, assisted by Donghuang Taiyi and Fuxi, hundreds of Daluo demon gods, and nearly ten thousand Taiyi demon kings serving him. Its strength was a hundred times that of the current heaven, but didn’t it still end up in a miserable ending under the will of heaven?
To be honest, even though the Jiejiao was defeated and thousands of immortals died in the last life, among them, only Zhao Gongming, Luo Xuan, Lu Yue, Sanxiao, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, the Holy Mother of Turtle Spirit, and the Holy Mother of Gold Spirit had the strength of Daluo Golden Immortals. The cultivation of other practitioners could only be said to be average.

Looking at the entire Jiejiao, among the practitioners who had reached the Golden Immortal realm, less than half of them died in the Conferred God Tribulation.

The Holy Mother Wu Dang and the Golden Hoop Immortal fled and no one knew where they went.

Taoist Duobao was captured by Laozi Taiqing using the Wind and Fire Cushion.

Chang'er Dingguangxian betrayed his religion.

The Dark Cloud Immortal, the Spirit Tooth Immortal, the Qiu Shou Immortal, the Winged Immortal, and the Golden Light Immortal were all subdued and eventually forced to become mounts or join the Western religion.

The remaining several thousand disciples, including Han Yi, could barely offset the loss of spiritual energy of heaven and earth by a Daluo Jinxian!
They are just cannon fodder to make up the numbers.

You must know that the source of the killing calamity sent down by Heaven is the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Orthodox Teaching.

Logically speaking, if a dozen Golden Immortals died, the calamity energy between heaven and earth, even if it could not be completely dissipated, would at least dissipate most of it!

He also asked Tongtian Jiaozhu, the true saint, about this speculation.

The answer is, of course, affirmative!
According to his speculation, there are two conditions to end the Conferred God Tribulation: one is the death of more than a dozen Golden Immortals, and the other is to gather enough people to be conferred gods.

If not enough Golden Immortals die and the spiritual energy returning to heaven and earth is insufficient, even if the divine throne is filled, the calamity energy between heaven and earth will not dissipate.

And this was the fundamental reason why Yuanshi Tianzun ordered Guangchengzi to visit the Biyou Palace three times in order to intensify the contradiction between Chan and Jie and force Tongtian Jiaozhu to set up the Zhuxian and Wanxian formations in succession.

the reason is simple!
It's just that the spiritual energy returning to heaven and earth is not enough!
Therefore, if you only deify a few people in the flesh, it won’t be a big problem.

But, if you deify your entire physical body, who will be the one to bear the calamity of the Twelve Golden Immortals? How will you complete the mission assigned by the Heavenly Dao?
Filling the seats in heaven in advance would not prevent the catastrophe from happening, and Han Yi didn't have that idea.

He took the initiative to make friends with Haotian just to muddy the waters of the prehistoric world!
After "Yu Chen Dao Jun" left, Hao Tian's expression suddenly changed, revealing an extremely fierce momentum. He looked at Yao Chi Jin Mu beside him and said, "This Yu Chen Dao Jun is a wonderful person! I don't know what my Senior Brother Tong Tian is thinking in his heart?"

Then, his gaze swept over the fairies serving in the Yaochi Lake. With a move of his magical power, the group of frightened fairies disappeared in an instant.

"My conversation with Daoist Fellow Yuchen must not be known to outsiders!"

Haotian said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Queen Mother of the West also nodded.

As for Zhao Gongming's good corpse Zhao Xuantan, when "Yuchen Daojun" just left, he took the initiative to propose to Haotian that he should go to the Finance Department of Heaven to take a look. He did not see this scene at this time.

"God!"

Haotian's eyes pierced through the void and looked towards the thirty-six heavens. He couldn't help but murmured, "One day, I will make sure that those saint brothers will not dare to stand above me!"

The Queen Mother of the West stood beside him and patted his shoulder gently, obviously indicating that she would always stand on the same front with Haotian.

At this time, Taibai Jinxing came forward to report, "Your Majesty, the Demon Saint Gui Chariot is outside the North Heavenly Gate right now, and he wants to see Your Majesty!"

"interesting!"

Haotian couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Yuchen Daojun had just left, and the Demon Saint Ghost Chariot arrived! My Heavenly Palace has never been so lively before!"

"Let him in!"

"I want to see what the purpose of this demon saint ghost car is?"

"If he has bad intentions, I can also reserve a true spirit for my 'Emperor's Banner' in advance!"

Haotian at this moment was completely different from before. He was like a magical weapon that had been sealed for many years. It suddenly burst out with brilliant light and was so powerful that people dared not look directly at it.

This made Taibai Jinxing very surprised.

How come after talking with "Yu Chen Dao Jun", His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven seemed like a different person?

and……

Why have I never heard that Haotian has a treasure like the "Emperor's Banner"?
