Ding Ding Little Stone
Chapter 906 The Heavenly Emperor!
True dragons coiled around pillars, and phoenixes sang.
Golden crows soared, and black tortoises stretched their necks.
Under the gaze of everyone, a young man wearing a nine-dragon immortal robe and a sulfur pearl crown slowly coalesced at the extreme point of the light, with a supreme dragon throne beneath him.
The man sat on the dragon throne, his body incomparably majestic, light falling down to shield his body, his eyes as bright as the sun and moon, and his calm face exuding an unquestionable majesty.
A faint pressure fell on everyone in an instant.
Civil and military officials, noble families, palace concubines, famous figures of the Jianghu, and masters of immortal sects all submitted to that majestic figure at this moment, subdued by his majesty.
Also respecting his merits.
Human Emperor, Great Emperor!
"Greetings, Your Majesty the Human Emperor!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty the Human Emperor!"
"Greetings..."
The vast thunderous sound, rolling endlessly, started from this place and quickly swept in all directions, spreading throughout a hundred miles, followed by Jianghu martial artists and common people who came to observe the ceremony.
Everyone bowed down to show their respect for the Human Emperor.
After all, everyone had experienced the Saint Martial Governance firsthand. All the people of the Central Plains should be grateful to the imperial court and to the emperor for everything he had done. Now that foreign troubles had been eliminated.
It was a time of peace and prosperity.
Who brought these about?
Of course, it was the existence before them.
"Rise..."
An invisible force enveloped the area, and all those who bowed down, whether they were martial arts experts or weak scholars, were all unconsciously lifted by a stream of air.
"I... swept the world, stabilized the human realm, and created a prosperous age, and I have no regrets. However... the immortal and mortal realms are different. If they are mixed together, future disasters will inevitably arise... I have decided to establish a Heavenly Court in the Immortal Realm.
All immortals must leave the human realm and go to the Immortal Realm. Those below the immortals, if they have merit, can also be conferred as immortal gods, enter the Immortal Realm, and enjoy longevity. From then on... the human realm will be at peace."
Chen Yuan scanned the heavens and the earth, immortal music surrounding him, and the words entered the ears of everyone present accurately.
All were solemn.
At that moment, from within the immortal sects, immortals with different figures emerged one after another, lining up between the heavens and the earth, above the void, bowing down to Chen Yuan:
"Your Majesty the Human Emperor has done a great service and deserves the recognition of the Dao of Heaven and the company of the Great Dao. It is appropriate to establish a Heavenly Court to govern the changing seasons and determine the reincarnation of all ages."
"Greetings, Heavenly Emperor."
"Greetings, Heavenly Emperor."
"Greetings, Heavenly Emperor!"
After the immortals flattered, they all bowed down to Chen Yuan in unison, addressing him as the Heavenly Emperor, establishing his identity.
The people below could also quickly react.
The former position of Human Emperor was abandoned, replaced by the Heavenly Emperor!
The sound of agreement was endless. The golden light falling from the heavens and the earth became more and more abundant, reflecting the entire heaven and earth into a golden appearance, which was shocking.
Dazed on the spot.
Then, celestial flowers fell in profusion, golden lotuses sprang from the earth, and various visions began to gradually appear, further elevating the scene to an unparalleled height, far beyond anything seen before.
Because, this was a celebration of the heavens and the earth!
The terrifying visions made the two words 'Heavenly Emperor' shouted by everyone even more sincere.
The national fortune of Great Yan also changed, directly splitting off a large portion and integrating into the Immortal Realm, making it even more magnificent. Faintly, a celestial palace began to gradually condense.
"The Heavenly Court is established, and there should be immortal officials on duty. I shall greatly confer the gods and grant you all a chance for longevity." Chen Yuan's majestic voice resounded, and then, with a wave of his hand, two streams of light flew out.
A golden illusory imperial edict and a tall altar.
The heavenly list opened, several feet long, with a faint golden light escaping. A mechanical and indifferent voice was born from the heavens and the earth, as if this was the recognition of the heavens and the earth.
"Since entering the palace, Empress Su Ziyue has been mindful of the people, gentle and virtuous, the master of the harem, the mother of the world, and should be rewarded. Now... I hereby confer upon her the title of Most Sincere and Dedicated Yaochi Golden Mother Heavenly Venerable.
Her title is Queen Mother of the West, in charge of Yaochi, the head of the Heavenly Court's female officials, assisting the Heavenly Emperor in sharing the Heavenly Court."
"Respectfully obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree."
Below the stage, Su Ziyue, standing at the head of the crowd, was graceful and luxurious, bending over and bowing. A stream of light sprinkled from the imperial edict, and her original decorations instantly changed greatly, becoming even more magnificent.
Bearing a faint immortal aura.
In this instant, her cultivation could not be restrained, and the power of rules began to manifest.
With the blessing of the power of heaven and earth, she was blessed with inspiration and directly comprehended the rules, stepping into the realm of a half-immortal.
Su Ziyue, who had already become the Queen Mother of the West, walked slowly onto the Conferred God Platform. Countless people below the stage looked up, their eyes full of envy, simply because they had chosen the right man.
Now, she had directly become the head of the Heavenly Court's female officials.
What an opportunity.
As Su Ziyue climbed, she also glanced at Chen Yuan, then smiled faintly, and with a wave of her hand, she directly separated a trace of her divine soul origin and poured it into the Conferred God Platform, immediately causing it to shine brightly.
"Greetings, Queen Mother of the West..."
"Greetings, Queen Mother of the West..."
The crowd below bowed again.
The heavenly list continued.
"Crown Prince Chen Sheng, inheriting the Dao of Heaven, complying with the people, possessing both literary and martial talents, virtuous and talented, loyal and filial, worthy of great responsibility. The Heavenly Emperor resigns from the position of Human Emperor and abdicates the throne of Great Yan. From this day forward, I hereby confer upon Chen Sheng the title of Emperor of Great Yan.
Obtain the title of Son of Heaven, receive the incense of all people, and suppress the chaos of the human realm.
Crown Princess Jiang Xue, as the Empress of Great Yan."
As soon as these words came out, the tone was set.
The position of Emperor of Great Yan was the Son of Heaven, second only to the Heavenly Emperor and Queen Mother of the West. Even the immortals conferred in the Immortal Realm could not be rude to the Son of Heaven.
And the title of Son of Heaven would also affect future generations for thousands of years.
All those who ascended to the throne would be the Son of Heaven.
"Your son respectfully obeys the Heavenly Emperor's decree."
Chen Sheng took a deep breath and bowed to the sky.
Although he had been mentally prepared for this, the fact that the matter placed the Great Yan Dynasty on his shoulders still made him feel a little overwhelmed. In the future... he, this young Son of Heaven, would have to shoulder heavy responsibilities.
Then, holding Jiang Xue's hand, he walked onto the high platform.
Golden light fell from the heavenly list, enveloping them.
"Greetings, Son of Heaven!"
"Greetings, Son of Heaven!"
"Greetings, Son of Heaven!"
"Holy Buddha Ksitigarbha, rebuilding the Buddhist sect, bestowing grace upon the Western Regions, saving all living beings, with a compassionate mind, rescuing the people from fire and water, immeasurable merit, I hereby confer upon him the title of Western Pole Sustaining Heaven and Emulating the Law Great Emperor."
"Martial Emperor Lu Chengfeng, accumulated for thousands of years, created the Ascension Platform, enduring humiliation and bearing burdens, planning for ten thousand years for the sake of the human race, meritorious service, high virtue and great prestige, I hereby confer upon him the title of Eastern Pole Azure Flower Luminous Emperor."
"Duke Jiang He, assisted the Heavenly Emperor in his humble beginnings, disregarding life and death, creating a prosperous age, his merits shining like the sun and the moon, his character rare, I hereby confer upon him the title of Northern Pole Central Heaven Purple Micro Great Emperor."
"Southern Divine Vine Taoist, understands the truth, guards the Southern Border, protects the Holy Tree, fought bravely against the immortals in the war against heaven without retreating, I hereby confer upon him the title of Southern Pole Upper Palace Longevity Great Emperor."
Among the crowd, many people first glanced in surprise at the inconspicuous Divine Vine Old Man, feeling a little surprised. Many people had not even seen this person.
Suddenly, he was ranked alongside Jiang He and Lu Chengfeng as a Great Emperor.
It was really unexpected.
But they did not show it, and the people around him immediately bowed to the four people in front and said:
"Greetings, Great Emperor!"
"Greetings, Great Emperor!"
"Greetings, Great Emperor!"
The official positions conferred on Jiang He and others were all changed and conferred by Chen Yuan according to the increasingly vague memories of his previous life. Their status was respected, but they also deserved it.
As for whether they could live up to the name of Great Emperor, it all depended on themselves.
He could not possibly be the Heavenly Emperor and let them be some kind of Star Lord, could he?
Moreover, although the Immortal Realm was small at present, who could know the future?
The Immortal Realm could be expanded.
Of course, at the moment they were conferred, their combat power would surge, for no other reason than... they could borrow the power of the Heavenly Court's fortune.
As for conferring the official position of Divine Vine Old Man, Chen Yuan had actually pondered for a long time. After seeking Su Ziyue's opinion, he decided to make him one of the Great Emperors.
He did have other ideas, and his merits were not enough. He had only submitted out of fear of his strength.
But who told him to be a genuine Demon Emperor?
As the second strongest existence after him, it would be unreasonable not to give him a title. In addition, the status and strength of the others were insufficient, so he gave it to him.
"Your subjects respectfully obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree!"
"Your subjects respectfully obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree!"
"Your subjects respectfully obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree!"
The four men looked solemn, cupped their fists and bowed to the figure shrouded in golden light, and then the light from the heavenly list and imperial edict fell, and they also gradually walked onto the high platform.
Jiang He did not care about anything else and directly separated a trace of his divine soul origin and integrated it into the Conferred God Platform.
He believed that Chen Yuan would not harm him.
But the one after him was not Lu Chengfeng and Moro, but the Divine Vine Old Man. It was not that he was moved by Chen Yuan's reward, but mainly because his own divine soul had been imprisoned.
Now it did not matter if he separated more of his origin power.
He had already seen clearly that he would probably not be able to escape Chen Yuan's palm in this lifetime.
Why bother struggling?
Moro said Amitabha, and exchanged a look with Lu Chengfeng. At this moment, they no longer hesitated and separated their divine soul origin and integrated it into the Conferred God Platform.
With them as an example, who would dare to refuse the conferred immortal behind them?
With the God-Slaying Whip out, no one could escape.
In terms of authority, Chen Yuan could be said to be in charge of the life and death of all the strong.
Of course, he would not do that.
Everything he was doing at present was for the sake of the extraterrestrial demons. If anyone wanted to leave, he would not refuse.
"Old Heavenly Master of Wudang Mountain, with profound Taoism, a great virtue in the human world, Wudang has protected the Northern Border for thousands of years, a pillar of the human race, I hereby confer upon him the title of Northern Peaceful Spirit Emperor."
"Demon Dao Patriarch Su Ming, repeatedly established meritorious service, not afraid of life and death, the Heavenly Demon Hall guards Dongying, meritorious service is indispensable, a pillar of the imperial court, I hereby confer upon him the title of Southern Blazing Emperor."
"King of Donghai Ye Xiangnan, resisted foreign humiliation, with a firm mind, conquering demons and resisting the heavens, wholeheartedly for the country, I hereby confer upon him the title of Eastern Mysterious True Emperor."
"Your subjects respectfully obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree!"
The three men bowed and saluted together.
As for the final Western Emperor, Chen Yuan himself had originally prepared it for Chu Changfeng, but unfortunately, he had not yet broken through the sixth realm, and it was somewhat inconsistent to directly ascend to the position of Emperor.
Immediately shelved it.
He himself was clear about this.
"Greetings, Emperor!"
"Greetings, Emperor!"
"Greetings, Emperor!"
Everyone saluted.
The three men immediately walked onto the Conferred God Platform and separated their divine soul origin.
"King Zhennan Chu Changfeng, meritorious service, guarding the Southern Border, countless battles, a model to be emulated, I hereby confer upon him the title of Southern Wonderful Dao Heavenly King, leading 30,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, guarding the Immortal Gate."
"King Pingxi Chen Huaiyi, loyal and filial, fair and just, outstanding achievements, a model for the world, I hereby confer upon him the title of Northern Mysterious Upper Heavenly King, leading 30,000 heavenly soldiers and generals to guard the Heavenly Palace."
"King Dongli Yang Huatian (newly conferred), diligent and conscientious, I hereby confer upon him the title of Eastern Degree Life Heavenly King, leading 30,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, guarding the Immortal Realm."
"King Beiming Li Suqing (newly conferred), although a woman, is no less than a man, established meritorious service, dedicated to her duties, I hereby confer upon her the title of Northern Empty Bright Heavenly King, leading troops to guard Yaochi."
The four Heavenly Kings were naturally not just gatekeepers. Looking at the order in which they were conferred, one could actually understand their authority, which could be said to be second only to the few who had become immortals.
And they were all trusted members of Chen Yuan's own group.
In the future, the vast majority of the Heavenly Court's heavenly soldiers and generals would be incorporated into their command.
"Your subjects respectfully obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree!"
"Your subjects..."
"Greetings, Heavenly King!"
"Greetings, Heavenly King..."
"Nanzhao Pillar Kingdom Lingxu True Lord, determined to make progress, unstoppable, loyal, I hereby confer upon him the title of Heavenly Court Most Holy Heavenly Master."
"Dongming Pillar Kingdom Tianxu True Lord, meritorious service in establishing the country, elegant and reasonable, I hereby confer upon him the title of Heavenly Court Most Wonderful Heavenly Master."
"Xifeng Pillar Kingdom Danqing True Lord, meritorious service in establishing the country, protecting the Southern Border, I hereby confer upon him the title of Heavenly Court Most Dao Heavenly Master."
"Beishan Pillar Kingdom Song Yingqiao, resisted foreign humiliation, fought to the death without retreating, I hereby confer upon him the title of Heavenly Court Most Bright Heavenly Master."
"Your subjects respectfully obey Your Majesty's decree."
"Heavenly Demon Hall Master Dongfang Sheng, meritorious service in appeasing Dongying, I hereby confer upon him the title of Heavenly Palace Star Lord."
"King Beiliang Wei Wuque, meritorious service in protecting Beiliang, I hereby confer upon him the title of Destiny Star Lord."
"Goddess Palace Master Feng Jiuge, to err is human, to forgive divine, I hereby confer upon him the title of Dark Underworld Star Lord."
....
"Sword God Situ Ming, I hereby confer upon him the title of Northern Dipper Martial Music Star Lord, following under the command of the Northern Pole Purple Micro Great Emperor."
"Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha, I hereby confer upon him the title of Western Ultimate Crossing Calamity Star Lord, listening to orders under the command of the Western Pole Sustaining Heaven and Emulating the Law Great Emperor."
"Dao Miao True Man, I hereby confer upon him the title of Southern Pole Literary Music Star Lord, listening to orders under the command of the Southern Pole Longevity Great Emperor."
"Zhao Yue True Man, I hereby confer upon him the title of Eastern Pole Bright Dao Star Lord, listening to orders under the command of the Eastern Pole Azure Flower Great Emperor."
"Li..."
Dozens of immortals in the Immortal Realm were also conferred one by one, but their positions were lower, not to mention comparing them with immortals of the same level, even comparing them with half-immortals was not comparable.
Conferred as Star Lords, under the command of several Great Emperors or Emperors.
Gradually dispersing their power.
Although they were somewhat resentful in their hearts, they did not dare to show the slightest bit of it. Otherwise... they would know what was meant by thunder and rain, all were imperial grace.
"Heavenly Character Divine Envoy Xiao Jing, meritorious service to the country, I hereby confer upon him the title of... Azure Chapter Divine Lord."
"Mysterious Character..."
Chen Yuan did not leave behind any of his former acquaintances, the current important officials of the imperial court, and some of his former friends. The women in the harem also had their own rewards.
Although Chen Yuan intended to bring most of his power to the Immortal Realm, it did not mean that he would not care about the human world. Divine Lords such as Xiao Jing would still assist the Son of Heaven Chen Sheng in the human world.
They would ascend to the Immortal Realm when summoned by the imperial edict...
