Chapter 152: The Purple Mist Realm's Master of the Heavenly Immortals

  The Town Yuanzi used the congenital Lingbao to protect most of the land in the Hongyuan Continent, and was finally re-refined by the Hongjun Daozu to become the Four Great Continents. The Heavenly Way bestowed boundless merits, and the Town Yuanzi alone obtained two percent of these infinite merits. Wuji protected the East China Sea region and surrounding areas, also sharing one percent of the merits.

  Hong Jun Dao Zu named it the Earth Immortal Realm in honor of Zhen Yuan Zi's contribution to this world, and also to distinguish it from the previous Hong Huang world.

  Zhenyuanzi obtained the help of infinite merits and virtues, originally already in the realm of the ultimate person. Although this time there was no progress, it was also a realization of various great Dao principles from the infinite merits and virtues. The merits at this time are not different from those of the saints, only slightly inferior to Houtu Niangniang who transformed her body into a wheel of reincarnation and the virtuous saint Nüwa Niangniang. Compared with the saints, there is little difference, so Zhenyuanzi's position is now equal to that of the saints, but lacks the Hongmeng purple energy, unable to use merits to prove the Dao.

  Hong Jun Dao Zu then ordered Tian Dao Liu Sheng and Wu Ji to go to the Purple Mansion outside of Hun Dun Tian, while Zhen Yuan Zi closed his doors at the Five Villas Observatory to comprehend the Great Way. After everyone gathered, Hong Jun Dao Zu appeared and said: "The replacement of dynasties in the mortal world is normal, but due to the vacancy of the Heavenly Court, the selection of divine generals coincides with the 1,500-year cycle of the Immortal Slaughter. You all love your disciples, and it was decided that each would rely on their own destiny, but unexpectedly you are incompatible with each other, giving rise to anger and foolish thoughts.

  "The war of all saints has caused the Honghuang to shatter, and all living beings in the three realms have suffered from this calamity. Laozi, Yuanshi, and Lingbao, you three are the leaders of the Xuanmen sect, originally one body but now attacking each other, is this really what a saint should do?"

  The three clear saints were quite satisfied with the harvest of this great disaster, but they still had to make a complete set of apologetic expressions. Then he said: "Teacher's disciples know their mistakes, please punish them."

  Hong Jun Dao Zu saw the three Qing saints already knew their mistake, but didn't care how they thought individually. He took out a gourd and poured out three elixirs the size of dragon eyes to give them. The three Lao Zi looked at each other, not knowing what Hong Jun Dao Zu was up to, but still each took one pill and swallowed it.

  After the three of them took the elixir, Hong Jun Dao Zu said: "This elixir is not a medicine for longevity or curing illnesses. Listen to me: this elixir has a mysterious power, because each of you three has your own flaws. Whoever changes their mind first will immediately die when it takes effect in their abdomen!"

  The three top saints, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu, were shocked in their hearts. The saint was not dead or destroyed, but he could take the lives of all the saints with just one grain of elixir. They knew it was a great terror, but afterwards they didn't care anymore. After all, the struggle between the three brothers now is only a superficial phenomenon, and the feelings of the three heroes are good. The face of Sanqing Saint showed a fearful look, but immediately returned to normal. Sanqing Saint thanked Hongjun Daozu and sat back down.

  Hongjun continued: "This time the Honghuang is broken. You all have sinned, but the people of the Xian Dao are very powerful and it's not difficult to turn the world upside down. Therefore, I have decided to re-establish a realm to settle the mortals. When the mortals cultivate immortality to the level of Tianxian, they will be led by the heavenly rules to ascend to the Dixian realm. This realm is for mortals to live in, and it's called the Human Realm."

  All Saints and Wuji Dao: "Teacher, this is a great good deed, we have no dissenting opinions." Then Hong Jun Daozu took out the remaining fragments of the Xianjie from the heavy refining and began to refine them. After a few cups of tea, Hong Jun Daozu had refined them into a blue water ball.

  Wuji looked at the water ball and found that it was almost identical to the current Dixian realm, only much smaller in space, similar to the Earth he remembered. Wuji controlled his excited emotions, not letting them show.

  Hong Jun Dao Zu completed the blue water ball ritual and then set up various rules. He then released the human tribe, which had been collected earlier, into the mortal realm. Since the mortal realm was similar to the Earth Immortal Realm, they did not notice that their world had completely changed when they woke up. Afterwards, Hong Jun Dao Zu placed the mortal realm between the Sun Star and the Tai Yin Star, following a mysterious trajectory.

  Hongyuan Daozu said, "Zhengyuanzi's merits are boundless. From now on, his status is equal to yours, and he will be the master of the Earth Immortal Realm." As soon as Hongyuan Daozu spoke, the saints suddenly felt a slight change in the Heavenly Way, but they couldn't perceive what specific changes had occurred.

  All the saints and Wuji are unclear about what happened, but Zhenyuanzi is clear. As the spokesperson of Tiandao, Hongjun Daozu said: "Zhenyuanzi is the master of the Dixian realm, and Zhenyuanzi clearly feels that although his own realm has not improved, he is closer to the Dixian realm. Moreover, he found that he can actually mobilize the power of the Dixian realm. This made Zhenyuanzi overjoyed, which means that Tiandao recognized Zhenyuanzi's identity as the master of the Dixian realm. From then on, Zhenyuanzi borrowed the power of the Dixian realm world, and even saints are not afraid.

  Zhenyuanzi, although a kind old man, had few social interactions except for his close friend Hongyun Daoist. However, Zhenyuanzi himself came from a noble background and seeing his peers already attain enlightenment made him feel uneasy, especially when Wuji, who was originally just his junior, could also rival the saints. This made Zhenyuanzi feel unbearable, but in the past, he had to endure due to insufficient strength, though deep down, he felt unresigned.

  At this time, the strength has made great progress, how can Zhenyuanzi not be happy, and no longer have to humble himself as a human being. The depressed air of Zhenyuanzi's verbosity was relieved, and the realm that had been stagnant for countless years suddenly loosened up, which once again delighted Zhenyuanzi. Afterwards, Zhenyuanzi went into seclusion to cultivate again.

  Hong Jun Dao Zu announced the appointment of Zhen Yuan Zi, and everyone had expected it, so there wasn't much surprise. Afterwards, Hong Jun Dao Zu disappeared, and Wu Ji and Zhu Sheng understood that he was letting them leave on their own.

  Wuji and Sanqing went to Taiqing Heaven, where they met the Holy Ones. Seeing that Sanqing was as usual, how could they not understand that this was a play performed by the Sanqing Holy Ones? The two of them had been calculated by the Sanqing Holy Ones, although they did not understand what the calculation was. However, this time they did not lose out. Not only did the environment of the Western world improve, but they also brought 3,000 disciples from the broken Wanxian Great Array. However, being calculated by the Sanqing Holy Ones was an undeniable fact. They couldn't help but let out a cold hum towards the Sanqing Holy Ones and Wuji, then left alone.

  Wuji and the Three Pure Ones went to the Taiqing Heaven for a meeting, but it's not mentioned. Instead, the story says that the war between Shang and Zhou has not stopped. Hongjun Daozu had already moved all the people who were sealed by the gods to the mortal world, and was paying close attention to the mortal world at all times, preventing the crisis of the mortal world being destroyed due to the power of the many immortals.

  Jiang Ziya led the great Zhou army to victory after passing through the Ji Guan Pass, and then launched a surprise attack on the capital of Shang Dynasty, Chang Ge. Emperor Xin personally commanded his officials, civil and military ministers, to fight a decisive battle with the Western Qi, but unfortunately, the difference in military strength was too great, and the Shang Dynasty's ministers, along with Emperor Xin, were all killed in battle.

  After the capture of Zhaoge, Ji Fa ascended to the throne as Emperor, with the national title of Zhou, establishing the Zhou Dynasty. He called himself King Wu of Zhou and posthumously honored his father, Ji Chang, as King Wen of Zhou. He also posthumously honored the last ruler of Shang, Emperor Xin, as King Zhou. Later, he rewarded the civil and military officials who made great contributions to the establishment of Great Zhou, enfeoffing 800 vassals across the country.

  After the establishment of Dashang, Jiang Ziya came to Yuxu Palace to deliver the edict. He was then ordered by the incarnation of Yuanshi Tianzun to go to Fengshen Platform to enfeoff the gods. Jiang Ziya arrived at Qishan and was greeted by Bai Jie, who escorted him to Fengshen Platform to convene the gods for their enfeoffment.
