Chapter 205 Huge Rewards for Tribulation Transcending
Chapter 205 Huge Rewards for Tribulation Transcending
Venus led Yang Jiao to the fourth heaven of the Desire Realm.
This is Yao Ji's residence.
"This is where your mother is a god."
Yang Jiao followed Venus's gaze and felt that it was very cold here.
Everywhere is the same gray and cold tone, without warmth, without other colors, only that empty loneliness.
Her emotions briefly surged, but she quickly regained her composure and thanked Venus:
"Thank you for leading the way, old angel."
After Yang Jiao finished bowing, she suddenly felt that Venus's voice sounded very familiar...
After thinking for a long time, her eyes suddenly lit up!
Seeing Yang Jiao's expression, Taibai Jinxing became even more excited!
She's about to recognize me! She's about to recognize me! Will she remember how I cleared the obstacles in the East China Sea for her, how I carried the Dragon Gate for her, and how I sent troops to guard her for ten years?
The moment when this silent dedication was finally revealed moved Venus to tears, making him realize all the hardships he had endured along the way.
He stared intently at Yang Jiao, waiting for her to speak so they could recognize each other.
Yang Jiao was extremely excited, her eyes filled with memories. Suddenly, she clapped her hands and remembered!
Pointing at Venus, he said excitedly:
"You're that directionally challenged immortal who went to the East China Sea to catch me but failed!"
Venus, the planet of Venus, died.
Even after Venus left without saying a word, clutching his chest, Yang Jiao still had a furrowed brow.
"Isn't that right? He's so upset about not being caught? Well, even the Styx Ancestor wasn't caught..."
Yang Jiao shook her head, no longer thinking about Venus.
I began to gaze intently at the sky.
suddenly!
【Ding! 】
Yang Jiao curled her lips into a smile.
His eyes narrowed into slits, and he secretly rejoiced:
"coming."
The system upgrade that helped us survive the Heavenly Court's calamity is here!
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully overcome your tribulation. The system is now upgrading... Please wait...]
The original system had too many bugs. Yang Jiao finally waited for the day of system 2.0. She wondered what it would be like.
Is it like in movies and TV shows, where the system has a clone that can follow you around, and you can refresh the store from time to time to take out a few Gatling guns to play with?
Yang Jiao looked forward to it.
Are we looking forward to the system upgrade, and the day when we no longer need to hoard fragments?
That was awesome!
【Ding! 】
System loading complete, upgrade successful.
[Updated to version 2.0, offering more search options and huge rewards. Do you need ten tokens to redeem?]
"Huge perks?"
The system has never offered such a tempting offer before.
Moreover, it only requires ten tokens, and coincidentally, she still had ten left over from when she drew the Bull Demon King fragment!
"What kind of amazing benefit is this? Can I directly exchange ten tokens for ten Hongjun fragments?"
【…】
"Or will it mean that in the future, once you upgrade to ten fragments, you can exchange them for all the mythical figures' cultivation techniques?"
【…】
"At the very least, give me the cards of Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi, Pangu, or the Three Thousand Demon Gods to replenish my resource pool."
【…】
"Hey, you're upgrading, not downgrading."
"Speak, Master."
How come it also includes language system degeneration?
[Host, would you like to redeem?]
Upon hearing the system's voice again, Yang Jiao hesitated for half a second. Such a huge benefit! How could she possibly refuse it?
"exchange!"
[You have successfully redeemed 10 card-drawing tokens. A Tribulation Ascension Gift Pack is now being sent to you. Please check your account.]
A stream of light silently emerged from behind Yang Jiao's head, drifting slowly in the air before finally settling steadily in Yang Jiao's fair and jade-like palm.
In an instant, the flowing light transformed into an antique scroll, emitting a faint glow, as if it contained endless secrets.
Yang Jiao stared wide-eyed at the scroll in her hand, full of anticipation, and pondered:
"This is the super-sized perk you were talking about?"
reel,
Could it be that opening it reveals the genuine Shanhe Sheji Map?
If that's the case, it's acceptable. She'd have to leave the Heavenly Court and go find Yun Zhongzi to show off.
With excitement, Yang Jiao untied the knot and gave it a gentle shake...
The scroll quickly unfurled and spread out in a long, continuous motion.
However, to Yang Jiao's astonishment, the scroll was completely empty, pure white as snow, with only three large characters at the very top.
Yang Jiao stared intently at it.
He jumped up right there on the spot!
He threw the scroll on the ground as if it were a hot potato and even kicked it.
"Stay away from me."
The scroll on the ground was perfectly smooth, without a single crease, and three large, elegant characters were written at the top: "Investiture of the Gods".
Yang Jiao squatted on the ground, drawing circles with one hand to curse the system:
"Are you out of your mind? You've managed to get my hands on Jiang Ziya's Investiture of the Gods!"
This is no easy task; you'll work yourself to the bone and end up with nothing to show for it.
What kind of amazing perk is this?
Isn't this free labor?
Yang Jiao wouldn't do it!
[Host, this Investiture of the Gods is different.]
"What's the difference? Aren't they all about deifying gods?"
[This is a folk ranking of deities, not based on the 365 celestial gods. Each person ranked will be rewarded with 10 card-drawing tokens.]
Upon hearing this, Yang Jiao was even more shocked.
In the common folk… they can actually bestow deities? This is simply unbelievable!
It must be understood that the Way of Heaven has always been above the Way of Humanity and the Way of Earth.
Can they even bypass the Heavenly Dao to confer divine titles?
[Host, there are thirty-six heavens, seventy-two earths, and thirty-six thousand gods among men.]
[Gods and immortals don't just exist in the heavens; they lurk beside us, even within our own bodies.]
The heavens have thirty-six heavens, the earth has seventy-two hells, and the human realm has a total of thirty-six thousand gods.
Yang Jiao only knew that the Taoist world of immortals was not simple, and that immortals were divided into 'gods' and 'immortals'.
God is created and nurtured by the earth, the heavenly god who governs the universe, the earth spirit who watches over the earth, and the deity who manages the underworld.
Immortals are 'divine beings' who have cultivated their powers after birth.
But wouldn't the Investiture of the Gods, bestowed by humanity, be going against the will of Heaven?
What has she done to deserve this? She just survived the Heavenly Tribulation, and now this even more deadly thing has come her way.
"Tell me, how can humans be deified? If humans could be deified, the human way would have already devoured the heavenly way."
Speaking of which, humanity...
Suddenly, Yang Jiao paused slightly.
Actually, upon closer examination, the practice of bestowing deities upon people in folk religion is not entirely nonexistent.
She suddenly recalled those gods who were not listed among the 365 righteous gods on the Investiture of the Gods, but who possessed even greater merit and magical power because they were deeply loved by the people.
For example,
Mazu, the goddess widely revered in Fujian Province;
Yuan Tiangang, a renowned figure in the Sichuan-Chongqing region;
Li Chunfeng, from Shaanxi;
Zhang Daoling from Jiangsu;
Huang Daxian from Zhejiang, and so on.
Especially the one whose fame spread far and wide, with temples all over the country, to the point that even Buddhism and Taoism were vying for his ownership—Guan Yu, the Second Master of the Guan family.
These gods and immortals all achieved their status through the devout worship of the people!
"Therefore, what I want to bestow is the title of a god among mortals..."
From this point on, humanity would be inextricably linked with Yang Jiao.
Will there ever be a day when human power can overcome nature?
"Actually, the Investiture of the Gods isn't that difficult."
These people were the most devout among the common people. Even without Yang Jiao's seal, they would still receive a steady stream of incense offerings from the people. Throughout the long river of time, their incense offerings have never ceased.
It is even more popular than the gods and immortals who are appointed by Heaven.
God is someone who is chosen by the people to be a god.
"Being an immortal is so annoying," Yang Jiao thought to herself with distress.
If she didn't have a divine position now, she would have already gone to Xiqi to learn from Jiang Ziya how to confer gods. Now she has to clock in and out, and if she doesn't ask for leave, she'll be marked absent without leave, and then she'll be banished to the mountains too.
……
Xiqi at this time.
Panxi.
After eating the flesh of his eldest son, King Wen often had nightmares. One night, he dreamed that a two-winged bear saved his youngest son. He immediately cast a divination and went to the Wei River.
Seeing an old man fishing, I went over to take a look and noticed that there was only one straight hook on the fishing line. I smiled and asked:
"Why doesn't the old man use a fishing hook when he's fishing? You can't catch fish with a straight hook."
Jiang Ziya was now very old.
He remained seated on the banks of the river, making no move, and replied softly:
"When I fish, my intention is not the fish; I would rather take the direct route than seek the crooked one."
