Inside the cave.

Yang Jian is currently cultivating.

At this time, Yang Jian was far from being the famous Erlang Zhenjun and the Heavenly Judge of the Heavenly Court who would become famous in later generations.

He was not as glorious, famous, or spirited as he was in later generations.

Yang Jian is now a man with a tragic fate.

He had a happy family, but in one day, his father and elder brother died tragically, and his mother was buried under Peach Mountain, unable to see him for a long time.

Moreover, because he was unable to protect his younger sister Yang Chan, who was about to be promoted, he and his sister had to separate.

Yang Jian, who had suffered a great calamity at a young age, felt extremely bitter.

He understood that he was too weak to protect his family.

Because he was too weak, he could only watch helplessly as his mother was trapped under Peach Mountain, never to see the light of day again!

......

Yang Jian deeply resented his own weakness.

When Jade Cauldron Immortal wanted to take on a disciple to ward off disaster, he chose Yang Jian.

Yang Jian seized this opportunity and became a disciple of Master Yu Ding, making the most of every minute to cultivate diligently!

Thanks to his exceptional talent and extra effort.

Yang Jian has only cultivated for a few hundred years, yet he is already a powerful immortal.

His strength, among the three generations of the Chan Sect, is considered outstanding!

Master Yuding was very satisfied with his disciple Yang Jian.

Although he initially heard from Yuanshi Tianzun that the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods was approaching and that he was being recruited to protect him from the disaster.

However, seeing how outstanding Yang Jian was, Master Yu Ding couldn't help but be moved and had the idea of ​​training him to be his successor.

Unless absolutely necessary, Master Yuding would not want Yang Jian to take any risks.

......

However, as much as they value it.

In Master Yuding's heart, his own life was more important than that of his outstanding disciple, Yang Jian.

At present.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable sent the Jade Cauldron Immortal down the mountain to promote the Investiture of the Gods and to become an enemy of the Great Shang Dynasty.

Master Yu Ding knew this very well.

The Great Shang Dynasty is too powerful; my journey will be extremely dangerous.

Therefore, in order to better protect his own life, he would definitely bring Yang Jian, the disciple he had carefully selected to protect him from disaster!

......

Back in his cave, Jade Cauldron Immortal woke Yang Jian from his cultivation and said:

"Yang Jian, the Patriarch has ordered us to descend the mountain and confer titles upon the gods. Quickly pack your things and come with me to the Patriarch..."

Seeing Yu Ding Zhenren's anxious appearance, Yang Jian was taken aback.

Having been a follower of the Chan Sect for hundreds of years, Yang Jian was very familiar with the Chan Sect's way of doing things.

He knew that, influenced by their patriarch Yuanshi Tianzun, the Chan Sect always acted with composure and great discipline.

This is the first time that, as now, the patriarch has given the order, and we are rushing to set off as if we were being reincarnated.

This caused Yang Jian to feel a deep sense of surprise and doubt.

"What exactly is this Investiture of the Gods that Master spoke of?"

Why is he in such a hurry?

"Could it be related to the Shang Dynasty?"

Prior to this, Yu Ding Zhenren had never told Yang Jian what the Investiture of the Gods was.

Yang Jian didn't know what the Investiture of the Gods was, but he couldn't help but guess from Yu Ding Zhenren's eagerness.

He remembered that not long ago, he had suppressed billions of immortals and gods in the human world, including the four saints: Taishang, Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunsheng.

They even suppressed and killed the Great Shang Dynasty, which was the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao of the Hongjun Ancestor!

In Yang Jian's view, in the primordial world, the only thing that could make the Chan Sect so eager was probably his hometown, the Great Shang Dynasty.

......

"When I was born, the Shang Dynasty was weak and suffered greatly from the oppression of the gods..."

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I simply wouldn't have believed that in the short few hundred years of my cultivation, the Holy Ancestor had actually built the Great Shang into such a powerful nation!"

"The power of the Holy Ancestor is truly incredible!"

"It's a pity that the Shang Dynasty back then wasn't nearly as powerful as it is today... otherwise, our family wouldn't have suffered that calamity..."

Yang Jian was born in the Shang Dynasty and has a strong sense of belonging to the Shang Dynasty.

His father, Yang Tianyou, was a scholar from a prominent Shang dynasty who held Yin Zicheng in high esteem.

When Yang Jian was young, Yang Tianyou often told him about Yin Zicheng's glorious deeds, which had a great influence on Yang Jian.

Seeing his hometown become so powerful, Yang Jian felt very complicated.

He was happy for the strength of his hometown.

At the same time, he sighed to himself, "If only the Shang Dynasty had been this powerful back then!"

......

"If the matter of the Investiture of the Gods that Master spoke of is related to the Great Shang Dynasty, what should I do?"

Yang Jian was a clever man.

He knew very well that from the moment Yuanshi Tianzun suffered a defeat in the Great Shang Dynasty.

An irreconcilable and enormous conflict arose between the Chan Sect and the Great Shang Dynasty.

After all, the Great Shang Dynasty had given the Primordial Celestial Venerable, who cared immensely about his reputation, a severe slap in the face!

As a businessman, Yang Jian was very reluctant to make enemies of the powerful Shang Dynasty.

However, at the same time, the Chan Sect was his sect, and his master, Master Yuding, treated him very well.

This left Yang Jian in a very conflicted state of mind.

He could only hope that his guess was wrong.

The matter of the Investiture of the Gods mentioned by his master was not, as he had guessed, aimed at the Great Shang Dynasty!

......

Yang Jian's mind raced, and in a short time, countless thoughts had passed through his mind.

He looked at Jade Cauldron Immortal and asked:

"Master, what is this Investiture of the Gods you speak of that makes you so eager?"

Seeing Yang Jian's confused look, Master Yu Ding quickly explained:
