The Sages Discuss the Investiture of the Gods-and Another Measure Tribulation!

In the West, the Daoist Zhunti perfected the Way of Destruction, and his strength had also increased dramatically. Just as he was in Secluded Cultivation, a voice carrying supreme divine power entered his ears from the Endless Void.

"Laozi, Nuwa, Zhunti, Houtu, Tongtian, Primordial, come quickly to the Purple Cloud Palace!"

Upon hearing this, Daoist Zhunti's face also showed a solemn expression, and he was puzzled.

"Dao Ancestor?"

After some thought, Daoist Zhunti immediately prepared to go to the Purple Cloud Palace. The other party had summoned all the saints in one go, which probably had nothing to do with his perfecting of the Way of Destruction. With a flash of divine light, he went to the Purple Cloud Palace.

On the other side, Eight Views Palace, Laozi frowned for a moment, but he also rushed to the Purple Cloud Palace.

In an instant, the saints arrived at the Purple Cloud Palace, stood in the void, bowed to each other, and then looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Come in!"

As everyone remained silent, the gates of the Purple Cloud Palace opened, allowing everyone to enter.

As soon as they stepped through the gate, everyone was taken aback to see Haotian inside, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

"Dao Ancestor!"

Upon hearing this, the Dao Ancestor nodded repeatedly before turning his gaze to the Three Pure Ones and the others, and calmly spoke.

"Laozi, Primordial, Tongtian, you have established Supreme Great Teaching and are entrusted with a divine mandate. You should have sent your disciples to take charge of the Heavenly Court, help Haotian secure his position as Heavenly Emperor, and establish order in the world."

"However, due to his own selfishness, he allowed his disciples to run rampant, resulting in a situation where the Heavenly Court has no one to rely on, and he is already entangled in the aura of Measure Tribulation."

Upon hearing this, Laozi and the others' expressions changed. The aura of Measure Tribulation was no joke; even for Sage, it posed a slight challenge.

Upon hearing that their disciples were already entangled in Disaster Qi, Laozi and the others' expressions darkened.

Seeing the solemn expressions on Laozi's and the others' faces, Laozi finally spoke.

"In my hands lies a Heavenly Book, its name Investiture of the Gods."

"The God Ranking should contain 365 Righteous Gods. You should discuss which family's disciple should be added to the list to make up the 365 Righteous Gods."

After the Dao Ancestor spoke, Laozi immediately followed suit in a deep voice.

"My two junior brothers!"

"Our Human Teachings only has one disciple, Xuan Du, so he is ineligible for the list."

"Let the two of you discuss this matter of Investiture of the Gods!"

Beside him, the Primordial Heavenly Venerate also spoke up, saying, "My disciples are all virtuous and accomplished, possessing great merit and virtue, yet they cannot be included on the list."

Seeing this, the Tongtian Sect Master was so angry he laughed, "Primordial, your disciples are all people of great virtue and fortune, why don't you put them on the list and bring blessings to all living beings?"

Upon hearing this, Primordial Heavenly Venerate's expression also darkened.

"How can my disciples work with a bunch of shabby people wearing armor?"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Zhunti and the others remained silent, not saying a word. They thought it was none of their business and that the protagonists of the next great Measure Tribulation would be the disciples of the Three Teachings, not the Western Teachings.

As for Daoist Houtu and Daoist Nuwa, they were completely ignored.

One of them is the Holy Mother, who possesses Power of Supreme Destiny.

Another one is Daoist Houtu, who possesses a Power of Merit in every reincarnation of a soul, and she also does not need to participate in this process.

Seeing the two arguing again, the Dao Ancestor let out a cold snort.

"The Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods was simply the General Trend of Heavenly Dao."

"As for the selection, you can decide for yourselves. Once on the list, you will work with Haotian to establish the order of heaven and earth."

With a wave of his hand, the innate spiritual treasure, the Investiture of the Gods the Innate Spiritual Treasure, also fell into the hands of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate.

Then, the group of Sage also found themselves entering endless Chaos Qi, and the Purple Cloud Palace disappeared without a trace.

"Fellow Daoists, the matter of the Investiture of the Gods has nothing to do with the West. I shall take my leave now!"

Seeing this scene, Daoist Zhunti also spoke up sarcastically, saying that since the Ancestor Demon self-destructed, the West has been a desolate place. Although there are Ye Xuan and Daoist Zhunti, in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, it is still a pure land. Otherwise, Daoist Zhunti would not have been able to establish the Western Teachings.

One of the reasons for the War of Investiture of the Gods was to help the Heavenly Court select 365 Righteous Gods.

Another reason is to allow the Three Teachings to withdraw from the stage of heaven and earth, so that the West can flourish and repay all the Karma in one fell swoop.

Zhunti that it was none of his business, Zhunti was the first to leave, his face beaming with joy.

Not only has its own Way of Destruction been perfected, but internal strife has also broken out among the Three Teachings, making it a double blessing.

After Daoist Zhunti left, Houtu and the others also took their leave. Like Daoist Zhunti, this Measure Tribulation was irrelevant to Houtu and the others, and there was no point in staying.

After everyone else had left, Primordial Heavenly Venerate coldly snorted and said, "Tongtian, your Interception Sect disciples are known for their ability to attract the attention of Ten Thousand Immortals Paying Homage. Simply select some to fill the positions of the Righteous Gods. Why drag them into the Measure Tribulation?"

"Primordial, your Twelve Golden Immortals are of the highest rank, and so are the Jie Sect Disciple."

"If you truly want to make the list, then let's see what you've got!"

The Tongtian Sect Master flashed his divine light and immediately returned to the Primordial World. Laozi also shook his head and entered the Eight Views Palace to begin his Secluded Cultivation. Heavenly Dao felt a trace of coldness in the gaze of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate and also took his leave.

[Ding-dong!]

[Detected in the Purple Cloud Palace, the Dao Ancestor has bestowed one of the Heavenly Book, the Investiture of the Gods of the Gods, into the hands of Primordial Heavenly Venerate. Please select from the options below.]

[Option 1: Take direct action, forcibly seize the Investiture of the Gods, bestow Investiture of the Gods upon yourself, establish a new Heavenly Court, complete the mission, and you will receive the Innate Supreme Treasure, Floating Life One Dream Net.]

[Option Two: Ignore it, let it do its thing, complete the mission, and you will receive Million-Year Primordial Power.]

Amidst the endless Chaos Qi, as Laozi and the others were fighting amongst themselves, Ye Xuan heard an Electronic Sound again.

After thinking for a moment, a strange look appeared on Ye Xuan's face.

"Seize the Heavenly Book, the Investiture of the Gods?"

If Ye Xuan wanted to seize this Innate Spiritual Treasure, it would be effortless.

However, this Innate Spiritual Treasure was of little use to Ye Xuan.

Of the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man —only the Book of Earth is a complete Innate Spiritual Treasure.

As for the Human Book, it consists of the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Brush.

The Heavenly Book is the Investiture of the Gods, and there is also a God-Beating Whip.

Only with the Investiture of the Gods the Gods could the gods be established; only with the God-Beating Whip could one counterattack those listed on the Investiture of the Gods.

Even combined, the two wouldn't be of much use to Ye Xuan, let alone just one Investiture of the Gods.

After completing the mission, although he possessed a Innate Supreme Treasure, the name "Floating Life One Dream Net" put Ye Xuan in a dilemma. Ye Xuan had never heard of this Innate Supreme Treasure before, so he immediately spoke up.

Choose the second option and ignore it!

The mysteries of Innate Supreme Treasure are still unknown; compared to that, a million years of cultivation is a more reliable approach.

After Ye Xuan made his choice, another Electronic Sound entered his ears.

[Ding-dong!]

[Host has chosen to ignore this. Million-Year Primordial Power are being distributed. Please review it yourself.]
