Chapter 409: A Proposal for the Covenant of the Gods? Passed!

Hall of Gods, assembly hall.

In the assembly hall, which spreads out in the shape of annual rings and is composed of massive tiers of steps lined with chairs, Indra, dressed in a purple suit with a rose pinned to his chest and looking quite flamboyant, sat at the center of the round table.

He looked at the various figures at the same table.

The first person Indra saw was a handsome figure wearing a tattered military overcoat, holding a large thermos, and possessing an extra eye in the center of his forehead.

Is this Erlang? Doesn't he never attend the Council of Gods? He has never appeared before.

The last time he appeared was when the Chinese God Group was still in Little Garden.

Appearing this time? Is he here to back Su Nian? Oh my, this is going to be a good show.

A short distance past Yang Jian, an elderly man with white hair, a frail physique, and lightning crackling with every breath sat there; this was Zeus.

Why did this Father God come to attend the Council of Gods too?

An inexplicable sense of foreboding loomed over Indra.

Ten or so seats past Zeus sat a bald, muscular man over six meters tall, powerful and sturdy, with two ivory tusks hanging from his mantle.

This is Ling Ya Xian, one of the four great Bodhisattvas of Buddhism, under the seat of Puxian Bodhisattva, and also one of the famous Seven Attendants from the classic Investiture of the Gods.

Of course, Little Garden does not have the figure of Tongtian Jiaozhu, and even if there were, it would be one of the Avatars of that Dao Ancestor.

In Little Garden, the one who represents "education without discrimination" is Kong Qiuni, who is of Confucianism, not some Jie Sect or Tongtian Jiaozhu.

As for Ling Ya Xian, he should be representing Puxian this time, appearing on behalf of Buddhism to show his face.

After all, the Buddha recently convened a Water and Land Dharma Assembly again, and Puxian is currently trapped at Spirit Mountain listening to the lecture; it is not so easy for him to come out.

However, at the thought of that Buddha, Indra's expression became somewhat strange; after all, for some unknown reason, the one sitting at Spirit Mountain now is not His Golden Body Dharma Image, but a blonde little girl.

Speaking Buddhist scriptures in a milky, loli voice, it almost choked him to death.

He could only assume that Shakyamuni had suddenly lost his mind; it couldn't possibly have been done by that brat, could it?

No wonder he has such a large bump on his head radiating Buddha Light.

Compared to these people, the others who came to attend the Council of Gods were nothing special, just the likes of Saint Peter of the Cross Religion, Neith of the Nine Pillars of Egypt, and the Evil God Loki of Norse?

?? Norse? Loki??

What the hell? Indra couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking at the blue figure sitting in the middle of a group of goddesses.

Damn it, how did that old thing Odin come to attend the Council of Gods wearing Loki's skin?

And what is up with this Loki skin? Wasn't it deleted by Dystopia?

Looking at this group of people, Indra felt inexplicably weary.

But fortunately, apart from these guys, the others who came were not people who could dictate the world, which was still somewhat beneficial to Indra.

Of course, besides these core seats, those vast numbers of upper and lower-layer representatives were also a nuisance.

But this was not a big deal; after all, those upper and lower-layer representatives were just going through the motions, and the core seats were where the real decisions were made.

In the force-supremacist Little Garden, there are only those few who truly decide the fate of Little Garden.

Thinking of this, Indra brought his hand to his mouth, coughed twice, and then took out an envelope.

"The time is about right, let us begin this agenda."

"Ahem, I presume everyone is clear on this agenda."

Indra had just spoken when a loud voice rang out from the side.

"Objection!"

Indra was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Ling Ya Xian, his expression full of astonishment.

"I haven't said anything yet, what are you objecting to?"

"Haven't said it? Then I will wait a while longer."

The bald, muscular man was stunned for a moment, rubbed his head, and sat back down.

Damn it, that son of a bitch Puxian definitely sent this guy here to cause trouble; Shakyamuni lectured you, so you're taking your anger out on me?

Indra cursed inwardly, if I don't mess with your Buddhism later, I'm not Indra!

Indra glared at Ling Ya Xian, then, with a dark face, said bluntly.

"The scale of the God Slayer War must be limited to the South District and the Middle Layer. I have finished speaking; who agrees and who opposes?"

As he spoke, Indra took out the Vajra, slammed it heavily onto the table, let out a huff, leaned back in his chair, and propped his feet up on the table, acting like a big shot.

These guys have become increasingly brazen using the God Slayer War as an excuse; their Avatars and Heretics don't go participate in any God Slayer War, but instead run to the lower layers to throw their weight around.

Do they really think he is blind? Or do they no longer consider him the Lord of the Heavenly Army?

"If anyone has objections, you may speak up; I will consider them carefully."

Consider them? By being stabbed to death by the Vajra? The representatives below complained in their hearts.

Indra had already brought out his Simulated Star Creation Map; although it was unknown why it was just a projection, his attitude was already very clear.

Regarding the matter of limiting the scale of the God Slayer War, they really did not dare to speak up.

Because with the God Kings entering the fray, coupled with the expansion of the God Slayer War's scale, the number of Heretic Gods had surged, and the number of Godslayers had not decreased much either.

This led to many Godslayers and Heretic Gods running off to cause trouble; since they were going to be sent off anyway, they might as well enjoy themselves before they were.

In view of this, the lower layers of Little Garden have been blessed recently; big shots who are usually unseen have descended one after another, killing each other, and the impact caused is truly not small.

In view of this, the major God Groups also have the intention to continue limiting the scale of the God Slayer War; after all, the lower layers of Little Garden are their important source of faith.

"Very good."

Seeing that no one spoke, Indra felt relieved; it seems his prestige as the Lord of the Heavenly Army still remains.

However, he also knew that this proposal was the easiest to pass, and next would be the proposal for the Covenant Great Dharma that would make the gods fight until their brains were splattered.

If he remembered correctly, this was also a proposal from Buddhism, but it was a pity that Puxian didn't come; he hoped Ling Ya Xian could withstand the pressure.

He had not forgotten that he had previously asked Mata to pass a message to remind Su Nian, so as to avoid him being tricked.

By now, that kid and that guy Baiye should have prepared a response plan, right?

"Then, let us begin the second agenda item."

"This is an agenda item proposed by Buddhism, regarding the new covenant added for the Last King during the God Slayer War—the Gods Covenant."

"I am now sending the documents to you all."

Following this, Indra copied the documents he had just placed at his side to everyone.

"Using the Sun Authority to repair the Last King's Spirit Status? Approved!!"

"Turning the Last King's Spirit Status into a position similar to a Layer Master? Approved!"

"By means of the Gods Covenant, all Divine Spirits who meet the criteria can potentially become an Avatar of the Last King, utilizing the power of the Last King? Approved!"

Watching the countless approvals, Ling Ya Xian crossed his arms over his chest, his face full of pride, as if this proposal had been his own.

The order Puxian Bodhisattva gave him was to disrupt Indra's proposal and to witness the passing of the Gods Covenant, which was modeled after the Covenant Great Dharma.

Puxian Bodhisattva had already given the heads-up; now it was just a matter of going through the motions.

But at this moment, Ling Ya Xian's expression changed as the sound of Puxian's teeth-gritting voice reached his ears.

"The White Night King has returned the Yaksha Spirit Status!!!"

"What? Shiroyasha returned the Yaksha Spirit Status??"

Ling Ya Xian was shocked by this news, his face turning ashen, and he couldn't help but speak out loud.

Oh my, it would have been fine if he hadn't said anything, but now that he had, there was a good show to watch.

The people present turned their gazes toward Ling Ya Xian with expressions of amusement.

Now everyone present knew that Puxian had lifted a rock only to drop it on his own feet; not only had he offended the White Night King, but he had also gained nothing.

All that talk about the White Night King converting to Buddhism and being one of their own—it was a forced attempt to bind Shiroyasha to Buddhism.

They wanted Shiroyasha to provide the Sun Authority to repair the Last King's Spirit Status, but instead, it was Buddhism that ended up with the authority over the Gods Covenant.

Puxian's plan was truly too beautiful; even in a daydream, one wouldn't imagine such a thing.

But if it were them? Taking a gamble wouldn't be a loss, and with Shiroyasha's silly and naive appearance, what if they really could have fooled her?

Once the Gods Covenant was established, there would be no need for candidates for the Last King; the gods would have the power to designate the Last King, and this temptation was simply too great.

It was so great that even letting that little fellow from Arcadia sit on the throne of the Last King was within their tolerance.

The Savior, who originally could only be one person, had now become a position that could be managed; anyone could see that the latter was the choice that best served their interests.

But who reminded Shiroyasha of this? The gods cast their gazes toward Indra, who had his feet on the table and was picking his nose.

Indra was currently watching a fine show.

His Avatar, who was listening to lectures at Spirit Mountain, had watched Shiroyasha hop and skip her way to the Water and Land Dharma Assembly and throw the Yaksha Divinity she carried onto Puxian's face.

And then, courting death, she reached out to pinch the face of the loli World-Honored One.

Followed by the scene of her being swatted away by a staff from the World-Honored One.

The phrase "The big monk feels really nice to the touch" still echoed in his ears.

Even Indra had to admit, she was truly worthy of being the White Night King; a casual move of hers reached heights they could not imagine.

"Ahem, what is all this noise about?"

Seeing that the noisy clamor above the Council of Gods had not yet ceased, Indra suppressed his laughter and tapped the table.

"Alright, let us begin the vote!"

Whether or not to pass this proposal left the gods present in deep thought; some who could not make the decision themselves had already contacted their own God Kings.

Of course, for Su Nian, whether it passed or not was no longer important.

The only significance this proposal held for him now was that it allowed him to legally bypass the Sun Authority War to hold and liberate the Sun Authority of the Equator Twelve Constellations.

The true holder of the Sun Authority had long been decided; even if it flowed out, its true holder still possessed the right to command the Sun Authority.

And under these circumstances, the number of Spirit Statuses that could be completed by using the Sun Authority to liberate it was limited.

Unless another Sun Authority War was ignited.

This was also the reason for the second Sun Authority War in the original work: to allow Kalki to legally hold and liberate the Sun Authority.

However, Su Nian did not need to go through such trouble now.

Thanks to the schemes of those fellows in Buddhism, Su Nian could, under the pretext of repairing the Last King's Spirit Status and with the permission of the Council of Gods,

Legally hold and liberate the Sun Authority, complete the Holy Lord Spirit Status, awaken in one step, and ascend to become a Three-digit Pure-blooded Dragon Species.

Of course, passing it was also beneficial to him, as he could then lend out the position of the Last King at any time.

Moreover, he could utilize the power of the gods to further increase the power of the Last King's Spirit Status.
