Chapter 119: Super Divine Choice

At this moment.

Yuanshi, however, looked at Lu Wu coldly, then snorted: "Hmph, merely a petty Great Luo, yet you dare to presumptuously claim to be the Kunlun Mountain God?"

"Daoist Lu Wu has the fortune, merit, and strength; why is he not qualified? He is fully worthy of being called the Kunlun Mountain God!"

The Eye of the Divine Path looked toward Yuanshi and said with a faint smile.

"Huangtian, the hands of your Divine Court have stretched too far!" Shangqing Tongtian also shouted with dissatisfaction.

"How about this: we shall return the portion of Earth Vein Power belonging to Kunlun Hill. As for the rest involving our private Daoist grounds, you of the Divine Court should not harbor any delusions. Otherwise, we might as well take a trip to that Chaos!"

Taiqing Laozi thought for a moment and finally said this.

"Eldest Brother!" Yuanshi, at his side, said anxiously.

Taiqing Laozi stopped him with a look, then calmly looked at the Eye of the Divine Path, "How about it?"

The Eye of the Divine Path could not help but narrow slightly.

Huangtian was thinking.

Although he failed to obtain full control over the Kunlun Mountain range, Kunlun Hill was not bad either.

If he pushed too hard, it would likely be counterproductive.

After all, he could not keep his attention on Daoist Lu Wu forever.

If he really took the entire Kunlun Mountain range, with such an eyesore existing under his nose, Yuanshi, who would likely be unable to eat or sleep in peace, might really do something like bullying the weak with his strength.

Although Kunlun Hill could not compare to the main peaks of the East and West Kunlun, it had the advantage of being vast and large.

With such an existence, it was enough to monitor the movements of Kunlun Mountain.

"Agreed!"

Thinking of this, Huangtian agreed to it right then and there.

Seeing this, Taiqing nodded, then could not help but look at Yuanshi.

Although Yuanshi did not quite understand the actions of his Eldest Brother Taiqing Laozi, at this time the Three Pure Ones had not yet drifted apart, and coupled with the Creation Gods of the Divine Court, he did not want to make the relationship between the three too rigid.

Therefore.

Unwillingly, Yuanshi helplessly returned the Earth Vein Power belonging to Kunlun Hill.

The Kunlun Mountain God Seal above Kunlun also flashed with Divine Light, absorbing that portion of Earth Vein Power.

Subsequently, under the flickering of the Divine Rice halo, the Mountain God Seal transformed from the Kunlun Mountain God Seal into the Kunlun Hill Mountain God Seal.

After the Kunlun Hill Mountain God Seal was formed, it descended toward Daoist Lu Wu below.

Seeing this, Lu Wu first bowed respectfully to the Eye of the Divine Path in the sky.

Then he received the Mountain God Seal, imprinted his Divine Sense upon it, and after completing the master-binding, the Mountain God Seal was instantly connected to his heart and mind, as easy to use as his own arm.

Moreover.

At this very instant, the entire Kunlun Hill seemed to become his eyes; hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and rivers were all within his perception.

At the same time.

He also gained the right to open up a Netherworld Divine Kingdom and a nether government.

As well as the right to grant titles to minor deities such as those of mountains, rivers, and land belonging within the Kunlun region.

From this moment on.

He, Daoist Lu Wu, was finally an Earth Deity immortal cultivator with an official position and a background.

Furthermore.

He also possessed the right to openly establish his own administration; his future was bright! Overjoyed, he once again bowed respectfully to the Eye of the Divine Path in thanks.

"Lu Wu bows in thanks to His Majesty the Supreme Emperor Huangtian Houtu, and thanks the Earth Immortal Ancestor for the grace of opening the Rice!"

Regarding this, the Eye of the Divine Path could not help but reveal a look of satisfaction.

Immediately.

The Eye of the Divine Path blinked, and projections of the Life and Death Book and the Judge Brush appeared out of thin air in front of Lu Wu.

After Lu Wu received them, his entire being suddenly changed, instantly transforming into an outfit wearing the imperial robes of a Divine Official, his aura suddenly appearing majestic.

"From this day forth, this humble Daoist is the Kunlun Hill Mountain God, governing a domain of the netherworld, establishing an administration, and managing nether affairs!"

The Pangu Three Pure Ones above, upon hearing this, all had rather unpleasant expressions.

But as they were Saints after all, they naturally would not go back on their word.

Yuanshi, however, watched the Mountain God Lu Wu coldly for a while, then said in a cold voice: "Kunlun Hill Mountain God? Very good!"

Having said that, after exchanging a word with Taiqing Laozi and Tongtian, he carried the Jade Ruyi and disappeared.

After Tongtian and the Eye of the Divine Path disappeared, Taiqing Laozi stood silently in place for a while before calmly dissipating his form, though it was unknown what he was thinking.

After all the Saints had left, Daoist Lu Wu finally let out a sigh of relief.

Upon sensing his own authority and the Divine Rice Laws, he smiled freely.

The future is promising! Although he was no longer a lone wolf and no longer as free as before.

But for him, who had long been cultivating bitterly in Kunlun Hill, this made no difference.

The only troublesome point was.

He was afraid he would have to get busy in these coming years.

He needed to open up the netherworld belonging to the Kunlun Mountain territory and connect it to the Underworld.

He also had to widely recruit Divine Officials and subordinate deities to assist in the normal operation of the Underworld Reincarnation.

Although troublesome, he was no longer as lost about his future as before; the Earth Deity Divine Court was still in its early stages of establishment, and as an elder of the Divine Court in the future, he would eventually achieve a positive result and become a Supreme Emperor of the Divine Court.

Several months later.

When many Loose Cultivators of Honghuang learned of the matters concerning Lu Wu of Kunlun, they were immediately in an uproar.

In just a few months, countless Loose Cultivators within mountains, lakes, and rivers responded one after another, transforming into Earth Deity Divine Officials.

In just a few short months.

The Earth Deity Divine Court, which had been vast and empty, instantly swelled with countless people.

The divine offices within the Earth Deity Divine Court also gradually filled up; as time passes, it is believed that having Earth Deity Divine Officials spread across the entire Honghuang will no longer be a difficult task.

Besides those of virtue who were conferred titles, there were, of course, some individuals entangled in negative karma who delusionally attempted to attain the righteous fruit of the Divine Court, and thus they responded one after another.

But what disappointed them was this.

The golden Eye of the Divine Path they expected to welcome did not arrive.

Instead, a cyan-red Eye of Divine Punishment shrouded them on the spot, countless Thunder Rice descended, and countless years of bitter cultivation ultimately turned into nothingness.

Not only did they fail to obtain a divine office in the Earth Deity Divine Court, but they also lost their own lives.

After their primordial spirits were placed under Seal, they would also fall into the Underworld Prison to suffer eighteen types of torture across eighteen levels.

For a time.

The entire Honghuang seemed to be cleansed; with virtue exalted and evil suppressed, the air was filled with Incense Qi, and as the Divine Rice flourished, the Immortal Rice retreated into the mountains and wilderness.

The forty-ninth heaven of the Heavenly Realm, Di Shi Tian.

Gu Zhangqing, at this moment, revealed a faint smile.

Within his perception.

The Earth Deity Divine Path, which had originally lagged behind the Innate Divine Rice by countless times, finally slowly caught up, and the gap between the two finally narrowed significantly.

Once the Human Divine Rice is also opened, with the three advancing together, under the Gods' Great Will, there will be the Three Talents of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

What kind of scene would the Gods' Great Will formed by the union of the three be? Gu Zhangqing felt very expectant about this.

【Ding, the Earth Deity Divine Path has been successfully opened; reward: top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure Space-Time Mirror, already issued!】

Regarding this, Gu Zhangqing did not feel surprised.

As early as when Houtu attained the Proof of Rice, he had received a Super-God Choice from the Super God Choice System.

Counting this choice.

Over these years, he had made three Super-God Choices in total.

One was when Jieyin and Zhunti attained the Proof of Rice to become saints.

One was this reward, the choice that appeared when Houtu attained the Proof of Rice.

And one more was the choice he received after the Witch-Demon War ended.

Such as: 【Detected that the Witch-Demon Calamity has ended, the current Three Realms are without a master, and the Human Race is flourishing; please choose:】

【Choice one: Sit and watch the Human Race flourish, ignoring the trivial matters of the Honghuang Three Realms! Reward: top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure Locking Heaven Jade Bead!】

【Choice two: Enter the Heavenly Realm and become the co-ruler of the Honghuang Three Realms; reward: two portions of Dachan origin, which can assist the Heavenly and Underworld realms in ascending to a Great Thousand World!】

For this Super-God Choice, he undoubtedly chose two.

This is also the reason why the Heavenly Realm and the Underworld ascended to become Great Thousand Worlds.
