Cultivation as an immortal is not about treating guests to a meal, it is about personal relationships.
What monks cultivate is the Tao, the heart, and the desire to cut off the worldly desires.
The road is difficult, worldly ties, lust, greed, appetite...many desires are all stumbling blocks on the road to immortality.
There are too many fetters and the Taoist heart is too heavy. How can I ascend?
What's more, even if you ascend to immortality, you will have no godhood or a divine position, and you can only be a loose immortal with no power and no need to be worshiped by the world.
In the past, in the vast heaven, although there were many gods and officials, there was only one third of an acre of land. How many radishes could be planted depended on how many holes could be dug.
But time passed, the gods fell, the immortal officials disappeared, and the heaven was nowhere to be found.
Now, Li Xiang has 365 "pits" in his hands.
To re-create the "Heaven", it is necessary to enshrine the fourth-level atavists from Kyushu as gods, and use their carrots to fill the more than 300 "holes".
In this way, the basic structure of heaven is built.
Among the eight righteous gods enshrined by the Taigong, the Lei tribe is the main battler and has the most astonishing momentum.
To take the first shot at becoming a god, Li Xiang chose Zhao Wuji and made him the Lord of the Thunder Department.
Zhao Wuji did not disappoint him. He defeated the Demon King and killed millions of demons. He won the first battle and won again in subsequent battles.
With his example, the resistance faced by the other fourth-level returnees will definitely be greatly reduced.
Since Immortal Canglan was born at the former site of Mount Huashan, it is most appropriate for him to be named the Great Emperor of Xiyue.
As for Qingqiu.
He was the one who took him out of Yangcheng half a year ago. In the army, he has always taken good care of him as the big brother.
Although among the more than two hundred fourth-level returnees in Kyushu, Qingqiu's combat power is not the strongest, and he can only barely rank in the top ten.
But Li Xiang still gave him the extremely important divine position of "Zhongtian Arctic Ziwei Emperor".
The "Tao Jing" says: The Great Emperor Ziwei of the North Pole in the middle of the sky controls the latitude and longitude of the sky and the earth, and leads the star gods of the three realms and the gods of mountains and rivers. He can call the wind, rain, thunder, lightning, ghosts and gods.
In layman's terms, Emperor Ziwei is the big boss who manages many star gods and mountain gods.
For such an important divine position, Li Xiang could only hand it over to someone he trusted.
Qingqiu is the best candidate.
In addition, there are several major divine positions that must be carefully considered and cannot be enshrined at will.
Fortunately, Li Xiang already had several suitable candidates in mind.
The appearance of Sakyamuni brought news about the river of time, which made Li Xiang feel a sense of urgency.
Countless gods from many planes and realms died like ants in the long river of time.
Once those terrifying beings, like Sakyamuni, break into the world of Kyushu through the tributaries of the long river of time, the consequences will be unimaginable.
What Li Xiang wants to do is not only to enshrine the fourth-level returnees from Kyushu as gods, but also to re-create a new "Heaven".
Let’s deal with the demon alliance and end this war as soon as possible.
Secondly, it can deter neighboring forces such as Tianzhu and Gao Tianyuan.
The third and most important thing is to be able to fight against the gods from other worlds that may come in the future.
There is still a long way to go.
This world is far more complex and dangerous than he expected.
Compared with those powerful gods who have trekked in the long river of time, these fifth-level kings of the Demon Alliance seem too weak.
…
The edict is completed.
The vision of heaven and earth has not yet dissipated.
Qingqiu is still studying the wonders of the Godhead.
Canglan sees the sea within, and is shaken by the vastness of its waves.
If before, his sea of consciousness was a small pond, then at this moment, his sea of consciousness is a huge lake with no end as far as the eye can see.
Above the sea of consciousness, the godhead is suspended.
The godhead projects light and converges into the phantom of Huashan Mountain.
The phantom guards the sea of consciousness, preventing it from being disturbed by the outside world.
Among the many priests, the God of Mountains and Rivers has the most stable sea of consciousness because he is guarded by mountains and rivers.
Although Canglan at this moment is slightly inferior to the Demon Lord in terms of strength, with Huashan's shadow around, even if he receives a full blow from the Demon Lord, his sea of consciousness will not be damaged.
The sea of consciousness is as solid as a mountain.
Moreover, it is only the phantom of Huashan Mountain that suppresses the sea of consciousness. In the future, when the cultivation of immortal magic and magical powers is completed, the phantom of Huashan Mountain will turn into a real entity. At that time, he, Canglan, will become the true God of the Five Mountains.
And all of this is a gift from Li Xiang.
Cang Lan retracted her mind, suppressed the shock in her heart, and bowed to Li Xiang.
Qingqiu on the side also came to his senses and bowed to Li Xiang.
The two of them no longer regard Li Xiang as a simple fourth-level returner, let alone a junior.
To them, Li Xiang was their benefactor.
Li Xiang put his hands behind his back and accepted the two people's prayers calmly.
After the edict was completed, including Zhao Wuji and Li Xiang, there were already three priests under his command.
There are 365 eight righteous gods, and there are more than a dozen main priests. To entrust these gods, it is necessary to find suitable fourth-level atavists on the battlefield or in the rear.
Li Xiang waved his right hand, and the list of gods fell into the sea of consciousness.
Remove the God-conferring Platform and gather away the aura belonging to the Grand Duke.
The Demon King, who transformed into a sword-wielding boy, dared to stand up and came behind Li Xiang with his whole body trembling.
At this time, it was more in awe than before.
The golden shadow that appeared when conferring the god really scared it.
That kind of fear is deeply rooted in the ancient bloodline, making it irresistible.
When the golden shadow appeared, it crawled on the ground uncontrollably, trembling like a sieve.
Lord Qingluan was so frightened that he returned to his original form, transformed into a sparrow-sized oriole, and got into the cuffs of the demon.
I still dare not come out until now.
Li Xiang is scary enough, but the golden shadow is even more terrifying.
They can't figure out why there are such terrifying existences in this Kyushu world.
…
Li Xiang looked at the middle-aged man a hundred miles away, stepped forward, shuttled through space, came to the man, cupped his hands and said, "I have seen the Mingguang War God."
The God of War is revered in the country. Just now, in order for the ceremony of conferring gods to proceed smoothly, Li Xiang activated the power of conferring gods and collided with Wei Mingguang.
Faced with Li Xiang's "provocation", Wei Mingguang retracted his sword skills and chose to give in.
Not out of fear, but out of consideration for the overall situation.
Li Xiang had a good impression of this God of War who conquered the Demon Realm with one man and one sword ten years ago.
I saw him acting like this again today, and I felt a little better about him.
Wei Mingguang didn't have the airs of a god of war. He returned the gift with his hand, his smile was like a warm spring breeze, and he said: "Fellow Taoist Li, Mingguang has a question. I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
Li Xiang smiled slightly: "Are you asking about the apotheosis of gods? I returned to my ancestors for the fourth time, and the ancestral spirit that awakened is Taigong Jiang Ziya."
When he entered the third level, Yin Tianzi, who had returned to his ancestors, had many fears due to his lack of strength, so he hid it for a long time.
But now, with Li Xiang's combat power and the underworld he controls, he can travel sideways whether in Kyushu or the Demon Realm.
There is no need to be secretive about anything he wants to do.
"It is indeed the Grand Duke."
Wei Mingguang said, but the topic changed, "But what Mingguang wants to ask is not about this matter."
"Oh?" Li Xiang was a little surprised.
Wei Mingguang looked at the place where the gods were enshrined just now, "That golden shadow is the Jade Emperor, the Lord of Heaven, right?"
Li Xiang asked instead, "Why does the Mingguang God of War think that the shadow is the Jade Emperor?"
Wei Mingguang flicked out a sword light, splitting into two, and then splitting into four... In the blink of an eye, the sword light filled the sky and turned into a mirage, covering the world.
In the mirage, there are nine levels of talent.
On the highest level in the sky, the palaces and towers are majestic and majestic, like the residence of gods and officials.
"When you were conferred as a god, special luck came from the nine heavens, falling like rain. When Mingguang looked up, he saw only pavilions, pavilions, and palaces stacked on top of each other, just like the legendary heaven."
Wei Mingguang looked at Zhao Wuji, Qingqiu, and Canglan, who were following him and were standing respectfully not far away. He knew that the respect of the three of them was not directed at him, but at Li Xiang, the conferred god.
The God of War of the Kingdom had a penetrating gaze, "There is not much human touch left in them, replaced by the indifference of true gods and immortals."
He looked at Li Xiang and calmed down his somewhat chaotic thoughts, "The priests and immortal officials you consecrated are all serving in Heaven, so I guess that the golden shadow is a spiritual thought or clone left by the Jade Emperor, the Lord of Heaven."
When Li Xiang was anointing the gods, he didn't notice the strange phenomenon in the ninth heaven. He was a little surprised when he saw this mirage.
He originally thought that heaven had completely disappeared into the long river of history, just like the underworld.
Unexpectedly, when he became a god, this kind of phenomenon would still occur.
Li Xiang was silent for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know who that golden shadow is."
Wei Mingguang was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.
"It could be the Jade Emperor, or it could be another powerful god, for example..." Li Xiang paused and said a name that made Wei Mingguang tremble.
