Fang Jian from Earth became an immortal official in the Heavenly Court. Not only does he have a golden finger, but the Jade Emperor also values him.
So do you think Fang Jian will pretend to ...
The Five Imperial Emperors also immediately stood up and bowed, saying, "I obey the order."
Soon after, the Jade Emperor returned to Taiwei Yuqing Palace and once again handed over all the affairs of the Heavenly Court to the Five Imperial Emperors.
As the Jade Emperor returned to the Jade Purity Palace, the Gou Chen Emperor immediately called out, "Erlang Shen."
Erlang Shen immediately came out holding his hu tablet and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty is here."
The Great Emperor Gou Chen said, "You will return to Jambudvīpa immediately and lead all the heavenly soldiers, generals, and immortal officials of the Jambudvīpa General's Office back to heaven in order. You will be stationed at the Demon-Slaying Commander's Headquarters at the Four Heavenly Gates and await your reward from Heaven."
"I will obey your command." Erlang Shen bowed and said hello, then took his leave and left the Lingxiao Palace to go down to the mortal world.
Then the Gou Chen Emperor said to the Dongji Qinghua Emperor, "You are the Grand Envoy of Taixuan Province and should be in charge of the matters concerning the ennoblement and reward."
"I obey the imperial decree." The Great Emperor Qinghua of Dongji bowed immediately.
Afterwards, the Gou Chen Emperor asked the Zi Wei Emperor, Hou Tu Huang Di Zhi, Nan Ji Chang Sheng Emperor, and Jiu Tian Xuan Nu Emperor, "Do you fellow Taoists have any other questions to fill?"
The other four emperors shook their heads, saying that they had nothing to add. Then Emperor Gou Chen announced the end of the court session and ordered all the gods to return to their respective positions and perform their respective duties.
Ancient Yuanzhou, the headquarters of Xuanjiao, Zixiao Hall.
Taoist Hongjun sat high on the auspicious cloud, with a mysterious light shining brightly behind him and a rosy aura surrounding him that filled the sky.
After returning from Heaven, True Lord Xuanzhou immediately went to the Zixiao Palace for an audience. However, as soon as he arrived at the Zixiao Palace, he found that the remaining four great saints were already waiting there.
After Xuanzhou Zhenjun paid his respects to Taoist Hongjun, he stepped on the clouds and flew to the bottom of Taoist Hongjun and stood there.
Taoist Hongjun finally spoke: "Although many of our disciples have been killed or injured this time, our Xuan Sect has officially entered the secular world and has been recognized by the Heavenly Court. This will not be in vain for the sacrifices made by our disciples. From now on, our Xuan Sect will also have a place in the Three Realms."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Zhou Zhenjun and the four great saints bowed to Hongjun Daoist and chanted, "Xuan Xuan Zhi Dao Tianzun."
This 'Xuanxuan Zhidao Tianzun' is just like the 'Amitabha Buddha, Amitayus Buddha' in Buddhism and the 'Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun' in Taoism, all of which are words of praise.
Taoist Hongjun continued, "Just now, Taoist Guanyin has informed me that the Buddhist sect has a sacred mountain on the vast ocean called Tianzhang Mountain. The Buddhist sect has gifted it to my Xuan Sect. From now on, it will be the place where my Xuan Sect will be established."
Upon hearing this, Xuanzhou Zhenjun and others were slightly stunned, but they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
Although Tianzhang Mountain is a holy place of immortal mountains, much better than the paradise of Jambudvīpa, the problem is that Tianzhang Mountain is above the boundless ocean.
The layout of the Jambu world is as follows: the central area is the four continents, and the periphery is the four seas of east, south, west and north. The four seas are vast and boundless, surrounding the four continents from four directions.
And further out from the four seas is the boundless and immense ocean, on which the ten continents and three islands float.
Therefore, once Xuanjiao went to Tianzhang Mountain, if he wanted to convert his disciples in the future, he would have to cross the vast ocean and go through hardships to reach the four continents.
After Taoist Hongjun finished his announcement, he said to the Four Great Saints, "In three days, our sect will officially evacuate the Southern Continent. Follow me to the Tianzhang Mountain in the Infinite Sea. Quickly gather your disciples and prepare for the migration."
Upon hearing this, the four great saints bowed and said, "We will follow the master's orders."
As the Four Sacred Lords left, True Lord Xuanzhou could no longer hold back and immediately bowed to Taoist Hongjun, saying, "Master, do we really have to go above the Boundless Ocean? How about above the Four Seas? It's much better than the Boundless Ocean."
Taoist Hongjun shook his head and said, "The Four Seas are the land of the Four Seas Dragon Clan. How can we allow you to establish a religion?"
At this point, Taoist Hongjun asked Xuanzhou Zhenjun, "Did you go to heaven and see the Jade Emperor?"
Xuan Zhou Zhenjun nodded and said, "I saw it."
"How is it?" asked Taoist Hongjun.
Xuan Zhou Zhenjun thought for a moment and said, "Like the sky above, it is immeasurable and unfathomable."
"Yes." Taoist Hongjun nodded and said, "When you were reciting the 'Tianshu', he glanced at me."
True Lord Xuanzhou was shocked when he heard this. Although he didn't say anything, he looked at Taoist Hongjun with surprise.
After a while, I heard Taoist Hongjun say, "That one glance can see through the past and present, and see through the yin and yang, the true and the false. I have no way to hide from him."
Upon hearing this, Master Xuanzhou widened his eyes and looked at his master, who had once single-handedly defeated the three great Taoist Golden Immortals, with disbelief in his eyes.
