Chapter 144 Diligently Poaching Talent
"Teacher, what do you think Haotian's purpose is in doing this?"
Inside the Pangu Mausoleum, the three of them paid their respects to Qing Yi and explained their purpose.
Nuwa asked this question.
"Didn't you already figure it out?"
Qingyi wasn't surprised at all.
"One reason is to seize the faith of the human race, and the other is to see if there is any possibility of taking a further step on my own path."
It has to be said that even Qingyi felt that Haotian was truly daring and resourceful, despite not having much strength of his own.
I don't know whether to say that Haotian was desperate or that he couldn't see the situation clearly.
"Human faith has always been something they desire but cannot attain."
Nuwa waved her hand, revealing a water mirror that showed the figures of the twelve disciples of the Chan Sect.
"First it was the Chan Sect, and now it's Haotian. However, recently the disciples of the Chan Sect have been looking for suitable beings to take on as disciples, probably in order to resist the great calamity to come. At this time, Haotian is disregarding the calamity of the Heavenly Court and instead wants to enter the cycle of reincarnation."
"That's what surprised me. But thinking about it carefully, the Xuanmen sect has never been united, so it's normal for Haotian to have some other ulterior motives."
Nuwa also saw through Haotian's ambition.
He stared intently at Qingyi.
"Teacher, perhaps this is an opportunity."
"He wants to use the human race to achieve some of his goals, so why can't we use him to achieve our own goals as well?"
'
Houtu shook her head as she listened.
"Sister Nuwa, what you're saying is too complicated. I knew he must have something to gain from doing this, so I can't agree to it easily. But since you've said it, as long as he's willing to give me benefits, I'll let him use the Six Paths of Reincarnation once."
"Uncle, give me a straight answer: can this be done?"
"Nuwa is right, this matter can be agreed to."
Qingyi had already thought it through.
It seems that the Heavenly Emperor's sister, the future Fairy Yao Ji, is probably a connection that Haotian formed during his descent to the mortal realm.
It is precisely because of this that the future Erlang Shen Yang Jian and the Third Holy Mother Yang Chan came into being.
However, the situation here is more complicated. The difference is that this time Qing Yi has the power and is an outsider, allowing him to manipulate this...
Cut it.
"The five emperors of the human race have not yet fully emerged, and the foundation of the human race is just being established. It is not suitable for Haotian to enter the human race at this time."
"Once the Five Emperors are born, the foundation of the human race will be completely solidified. At that time, even if Haotian wants to do something, the effect will be extremely limited."
As Qingyi spoke, he looked towards the outside of Pangu Mausoleum.
Nuwa followed Qingyi's gaze and looked at the prehistoric human race.
Nuwa only saw the human race becoming more and more prosperous; she truly deserves to be the protagonist of the primordial era.
But Qingyi saw it differently. This time, Buzhou Mountain did not collapse, and the prehistoric world underwent two minor dimensional upgrades, making the world extremely stable.
Humanity did not experience the calamity of the Lich Wars, has a long history, and has the ancestor of literature who proved his Dao among humans, so it can be said that their cultural heritage is extremely profound.
The birth of the Three Sovereigns laid the foundation for the human race.
The next five emperors carried on the legacy and perfected the rules and regulations of the human race.
By that time, it will be extremely difficult for new faiths to join the human race.
"Then we'll allow Haotian to reincarnate as a human after all five emperors have been born."
Emperor Fuxi also expressed his opinion.
Nuwa readily agreed, "But teacher, what price should Haotian pay?"
This is where Nuwa is conflicted. Of all the things Haotian has, apart from the Thirty-Three Heavens which are somewhat valuable, she doesn't care about anything else.
It's obvious that the Thirty-Three Heavens are not going to be given to her.
Qingyi already had a plan in mind about this matter.
"I want the forty-nine Star Lord positions in this primordial world!"
"The location of the star officials?"
Nuwa's eyes lit up, and she began to carefully consider her options.
The position of Star God can be bestowed as many times as one wishes, but it is obvious that the teacher would not want such a worthless position.
That is the position of the true god. It must be said that this position, which involves status, is indeed very precious.
"The positions of the forty-nine star deities."
Nuwa quickly came to understand.
"The positions of the Five Directions and Five Star Lords, the Sun and Moon Star Lords, the Twenty-Eight Mansions, the Seven Star Lords of the Big Dipper, and the Six Star Lords of the Southern Dipper —"
Nuwa looked towards Wangshu's Taoist temple.
"And most importantly, Doumu Yuanjun!"
"Besides the Antarctic Longevity Emperor among the Four Emperors, it's equivalent to capturing all the Star Lords in one fell swoop."
Nuwa became excited.
This condition is indeed feasible. If it can be achieved, the lineage of the Heavenly Star Lords will be surnamed Pangu.
Leaving aside the highest-ranking Doumu Yuanjun and the Four Emperors, even the Twenty-Eight Constellations are all prominent figures, holding at least the fourth rank in officialdom.
Moreover, there are only 365 positions for the righteous gods, and the star lords occupy nearly one-sixth of them.
"Teacher, will Haotian agree?"
"Don't worry, he'll agree."
Qingyi is very confident.
There are so many vacant official positions in the Heavenly Court now, and most importantly, the Heavenly Court does not actually belong to Haotian.
Hongjun could take it back with just a word.
Therefore, this is tantamount to using other people's things to seek benefits for oneself.
As for the future, Haotian can't worry about that.
"Okay, then I'll talk to him about this."
After finishing their business, Nuwa and the other two lingered at Pangu Mausoleum for a while before leaving one after another.
On the primordial continent.
Zhunti, along with his disciples Randeng and Julusun, was searching for suitable disciples.
That's right, it was Cundi who led the way.
"Nephew, rest assured. Since you are Senior Brother Yuanshi's disciple, you are also my disciple. I will definitely find a suitable disciple for you."
"Thank you, Uncle-Master Zhunti. I will definitely be filial to you in the future."
Ju Liusun was moved, but his teacher Yuanshi refused to help him find disciples.
In truth, this whole thing was Guang Chengzi's fault; now he should come out and find out for himself.
He carried the aura of calamity, so he kept a low profile, and the primordial world was vast.
Where can he find a disciple who possesses both magical treasures and the ability to ward off calamities?
I still think I'm closer to Uncle-Master Zhunti.
Zhunti's eyes were crinkled with laughter.
Dipankara has made it clear to Zhunti that he intends to defect from the Chan Sect and is just waiting for the right opportunity.
Among those who are 100% certain to be taken away are Julusun, Cihang, and Wenshu.
In Zhunti's eyes, these people were already disciples of the Western Sect.
With a solid foundation and considerable strength, and having been selected by a sage, the Western religion is truly a chosen one.
Therefore, none of them can be allowed to have any accidents.
Since it's about helping one's disciple overcome tribulation, one has to be attentive.
"When choosing disciples, we can't just look at spiritual treasures; we mainly have to look at fate."
Zhunti was muttering incantations.
Suddenly, a mountain peak appeared ahead, shrouded in ethereal mist. Even in the desolate eastern part of the wilderness, where immortal mountains were everywhere, this mountain was extraordinary.
"Come on, junior disciple, I see that what lies ahead is destined for us."
"Our senior uncle is right, we are destined to be together!"
Zhunti has already begun diligently undermining the foundation of Western religion in order to secure its future.
Once he achieves sainthood in the future, he will immediately be able to establish a formidable sect that will dominate the primordial world.
It's just a slight change in the order of sainthood and establishing a religion.
In contrast to Zhunti's energetic and ambitious approach to his career, Laozi lived up to his name.
