Sun Wukong's words were fearless in the eyes of the Three Pure Ones. After all, in the realm of gods, the law is not attached to appearances. Moreover, Yuanshi Tianzun also has his own unique intentions, which are not as simple as the Hongmen Banquet. People who practice Taoism come for the position of gods, and they also need to have the ability of gods. Yuanshi Tianzun underestimated the cultivation of Wu Yugang and others, but he was also shocked by Sun Wukong's disturbance in the Heavenly Palace when he deceived Sun Wukong.
Wu Yugang had already understood what the old Dragon King had said about the darkness in the heavens, and he was even more aware of what the Three Pure Ones in the God Realm had done. As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking it. Wu Yugang also wanted to see what Yuanshi Tianzun's intentions were. After all, if he resisted the Three Pure Ones, the world would be difficult to resolve. In this way, the people in the world who had suffered all kinds of hardships and could hardly see the light of day would fall even deeper into darkness and be unable to extricate themselves.
The Overlord Xiang Yu was even more indifferent to the situation in front of him, which was like the Hongmen Banquet. After all, the experience of the Hongmen Banquet made Xiang Yu more mature, and his gentlemanly style of righteousness became more obvious. After all, this was a contest of language etiquette, not a fight of strength. Even if they were to fight, they would choose to do it on the battlefield, not a random entanglement regardless of the occasion. In this way, Xiang Yu was a rare gentleman of benevolence and righteousness. After all, the cultivation over thousands of years made Xiang Yu more clear about the world and people's hearts.
Although Xiang Yu was also defeated by Liu Bang, after Liu Bang gained control of the country, he did not exterminate the entire Xiang family. At the Hongmen Banquet, Xiang Bo, who had danced with Xiang Zhuang with swords, was also reused after the unification because he had protected Liu Bang in times of danger. This was also due to the gentlemanly character of the Xiang family, which was praised by people.
It is difficult to change one's nature because of Xiang Yu's righteousness. Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun did not dare to bully the weak. Moreover, Tongtian Jiaozhu on the side had been eyeing the situation covetously. After all, the land of Sanqing was not a place for assassination. Doing so would destroy the reputation of the gods and lose their dignity.
I only heard Yuanshi Tianzun say: "Among all the gods, the laws of heaven are very strict, which are not understandable to ordinary people. Ordinary people in the world are also unscrupulous people. I did this to warn you that even if you have become a god, you can't act rashly, otherwise you will lose the divine way. I don't want to get rid of you with this Sanbao Yuruyi, but to pass on the true meaning of the three realms to you. In this way, you can have supernatural powers in the three realms and walk freely in the thirty-six heavens!"
When Taishang Laojun saw the confrontation being resolved, he already admired Yuanshi Tianzun's chaotic cultivation. After all, the heavens also needed to appease the people at this time. If it was done easily, the hearts of the gods would be difficult to appease. And if the disciple in front of him was not taught in this way, it would be even more difficult for the disciple to understand the complexity and chaos in the three realms. Although justice is good, it also needs to be done in a certain way.
Taishang Laojun said to Wu Yugang and the others in front of him: "Between heaven and earth, the principles of yin and yang are present in all things. All things carry yin and embrace yang to make peace. This is why the world is peaceful. Now that justice is lacking in the world, you are making up for it. This is God's will."
When Taishang Laojun said this, Yang Chenguang seemed to have gained some insights, and looked around the Eight Scenery Palace in the Three Pure Ones in amazement. Long Ju also seemed to have achieved something, and returned to the right path. The golden boy and jade girl were the ones who came to help, and this world was what he wanted to see in his heart.
Sun Wukong is an extremely intelligent god. He has very few disciples, but now he has two disciples that he likes. Now he can reach the realm of the Three Pure Ones and become a god. This is many times better than the pain he has endured for five hundred years. The attitude of the Three Pure Ones towards this cultivator also makes Sun Wukong look at him with new eyes. After all, for thousands of years, Taishang Laojun has been high above, sacred and inviolable. And such an attitude also shows a hint of weakness.
Suddenly, a spiritual light flashed in the hand of Taishang Laojun. Wu Yuguang, Overlord Xiang Yu, Wuyazi, Jiuli Zhenren, Long Qie and Yang Chenguang felt a spiritual energy entering their bodies and minds. Pure golden light appeared on their faces, and the golden light shone brightly in the Bajing Palace.
The Supreme Lord Lao said to the Overlord Xiang Yu: "Now that your great calamity has passed, you have comprehended the Buddhist mantra that contains countless calamities within yourself, and your practice has been perfect. In the world, you were once named the King of Wrath. Now you have returned to the underworld, to the eighteen levels of hell, to be in charge of suppressing the unjust ghosts in the world, and to specialize in deceiving and seducing unjust things."
Xiang Yu was extremely happy when he heard that he was named King Yama. After all, there were very few people in the three realms of the world who were as upright and polite as Xiang Yu, and there were many deceitful things in the world. This was also what Xiang Yu hated the most.
Long Qie was made a god by the Taishang Laojun to assist Xiang Yu. Although Yang Chenguang was a disciple of the Taishang Laojun in his previous life, he should return to his original position. However, in Yang Chenguang's eyes, returning to the Taishang Laojun was not as good as living happily in the underworld.
Taishang Laojun had already seen what Yang Chenguang was thinking, and said to the pure Yang Chenguang: "I think you, a boy, will never change your naughty nature no matter where you are. Now I will appoint you as a multi-party boy in the underworld to assist the Lord of the Netherworld."
Yang Chenguang was happy when he heard the words of Taishang Laojun. After all, the position of the guardian of the underworld was even better than that of Taishang Laojun's boy.
The Jiuli Immortal was just as unruly as Chiyou, and had no interest in the position of the heaven. When he heard that the Supreme Lord had conferred the title of God on everyone, he already felt aggrieved.
Jiuli Zhenren said loudly: "Taishang Laojun, we practice Taoism not for the official position in the heaven. The lack of justice in the world and the trampling of each other among the Taoists are also intolerable. We are originally the people who practice Taoism. We have our hearts attached to justice, and we are dispensable to the gods."
Wuyazi also understood the intention of Jiuli Zhenren. After all, if justice in the world could be settled by granting official positions, how could the world not fall into the disputes of desire? And if it was just for the sake of official positions, the justice in the practice of Taoism would lose its true meaning. (To be continued)
