Chapter 170 Di Hong’s Ambition
Regarding this, Emperor Hong really felt that he had nothing to say. Besides, Qi Yu was the Saint Master of the human race, so it was only natural for him to live in the ancestral land of the human race. Now, no matter how long he stayed in the Holy City, others had no right to comment on anything.

Therefore, Emperor Hong just spoke to Qi Yu with a very stereotyped smile.

“You are joking, Daoist friend. Daoist friend is the Saint Master of our clan, so why would I bother you? Daoist friend, just do as you please.”

Hearing this, Qi Yu also smiled.

“Thank you for your understanding, fellow Taoist.”

“Now that I have finished talking about the first point, I will talk to you about the second point. I am here to discuss something important with you, but before that, we must fulfill our original agreement.”

As he spoke, Qi Yu flipped his hand, and light suddenly flowed in his palm. Finally, the immortal light condensed into one, transforming into a blue-purple immortal scroll.

The immortal scroll contains supreme fortune, which is a concrete manifestation of the authority and fortune of the immortal orthodoxy. It represents the aura of the first level of the Xuanmen Patriarch. Even if it is not as good as the nine great patriarchs born from the origin of the immortal way, it can still be called extraordinary.

After the immortal talisman was condensed, Qi Yu did not stop his actions. He just made a hand gesture with one hand, and suddenly, the immortal fortune in the dark was drawn in and intertwined with the immortal talisman. Faintly, the traces of the immortal tradition were faded, leaving enough room in it, which faintly turned into the prototype of a brand-new immortal vein.

This is the position Qi Yu left for the future human immortal path. Di Hong joined Xuanmen not to be Qi Yu’s deputy after all. He will definitely open his own lineage in the future. And he will be in charge of the Human Emperor lineage and the human immortal tradition in the future. It is undoubtedly the best choice!

After doing all this, Qi Yu finally sent out the purple-blue immortal talisman and pushed it in front of Di Hong on the opposite side.

Then he spoke.

“Since you are willing to bring the throne of the Emperor into my Xuanmen, I should express my gratitude. This is a noble position condensed from my immortal lineage. It symbolizes the pattern of the Xuanmen Patriarch and also embodies part of the immortal destiny. I will give it to you this time.”

“In addition, Daoist Fellow Di Hong should still pay more attention to the matter of human immortality that we talked about earlier. With this immortal scroll in front of you, Daoist Fellow can use this as the foundation for establishing the path of human immortality in the future.”

Qi Yu knew very well that the throne of the Emperor was of great importance. Even if the Emperor’s legal lineage was preserved, Emperor Hong might not be relieved if he spoke frankly.

Therefore, at this moment, Qi Yu decided to give benefits first. On the one hand, it was to appease him, and on the other hand, it was to give Di Hong confidence, making him sure that Xuanmen was not only using him, but would also protect his status and preserve the inheritance of the Three Emperors’ Taoist tradition from falling into the hands of others.

This is a very important statement, and in Qi Yu’s opinion, it is very necessary!
Sure enough, after seeing this scene, Di Hong’s expression suddenly became serious. He realized at this moment that although he had not officially joined Xuanmen, once he took over the immortal tablet, he would be considered an immortal. From now on, the arrow has been shot and there is no turning back. He can only follow Xuanmen’s path to the end. He has no other choice.

However, the general big forces would not open up a new path and have any ideas about the Three Emperors’ lineage. Therefore, it is obviously risky to follow Xuanmen. Even if Xuanmen rebels against the Heaven one day, Emperor Hong feels that he will not be too surprised.

And by then, he will have no choice, joining the rebellion will be his only way out!
It can be said that this will be the most important decision in his life.

In this regard, Di Hong still hesitated for a moment, but Qi Yu did not urge him at this moment, but just waited for Di Hong to make his own choice.

Unexpectedly, this hesitation did not last too long. After only three breaths of time, Di Hong stretched out his hand under Qi Yu’s gaze and steadily caught the immortal scroll. At the same time, he looked at Qi Yu and said with a firm gaze.

“Thank you for your help, I will definitely live up to your expectations.”

In fact, for Di Hong, such a choice may seem difficult, but it is actually very easy, because from the beginning to the end, he has never had a second option. Under the threat of Di Jiang, cooperating with Xuanmen is his only choice. This is the fundamental reason why he made the decision so happily at this moment.

Seeing that Emperor Hong was so decisive, Qi Yu nodded secretly in his heart. With clear goals and strong courage, Emperor Hong was indeed a promising talent. No wonder Empress Zi Guang valued him. It was not only because Emperor Hong was “suitable” enough, but also because he did have the qualifications to inherit the throne of the Human Emperor.

The only thing that the Queen of Heaven had not anticipated was that under the influence of Di Jiang, Di Hong would eventually choose to turn to the path of immortality.

Immediately, Qi Yu spoke again.

“With your words, I feel relieved.”

“Then, I will discuss another matter with you. This is something that I, several fellow Taoists in the Xuan Sect, and the two Heavenly Lords of Bingfengqi Mountain have jointly agreed upon. In a way, it is also related to you.”

As he spoke, Qi Yu explained the plans of the rotating Heavenly Emperor and the Five Gods. He also mentioned the idea of ​​the rotating leader. Of course, the most important of all was the concept of the Nine Daoist Masters of Xuanmen.

According to Qi Yu’s description, the status of the Nine Dao Zuns was indeed extremely grand, and together they formed the pattern of Xuanmen teaching, which could be regarded as occupying the fundamental status of the origin of the Immortal Dao. However, as the price of exchange, the lineage of the Human Emperor needed to completely give up the power and position of the Human Emperor and could only retain the legal system.

For a moment, such news made Emperor Hong silent. Just now, I was thinking that Xuanmen might rebel against the Heaven one day, but now, it is really going to rebel and directly plan to establish another Heavenly Court!

What is this all about!
But after a brief silence, Emperor Hong still returned to the question itself. He was able to rise smoothly from the acquired creatures, and walked step by step to where he is today, and finally successfully took charge of the entire human race. Obviously, he could not be a pedantic person.

On the contrary, Di Hong was the most open-minded on many issues and did not have many prejudices. In his opinion, changing allegiance was not a big deal!
Immediately, he asked Qi Yu.

“Fellow Daoist, I don’t need to ask more questions. I only want to ask one thing. The Five Gods take turns to be the Emperor of Heaven. Where do these Five Gods come from?”

In fact, what Emperor Hong wanted to ask more was whether the lineage of the Human Emperor Palace would have any chance to get involved in the Human Emperor throne or even the Heavenly Emperor throne in the future. He also wanted to know whether he himself would have a day to become the Human Emperor.

Emperor Hong did not even conceal this thought, and Qi Yu could of course see it at a glance. He did not hide anything and directly stated the current candidates for the Five Gods.

“The Five Gods should select pure and moral people from the vast wilderness to be the leaders. The two Heavenly Lords in Fengqi Mountain have great merits and great perseverance. On West Kunlun, Taoist friend Jinmu is also famous throughout the world, and it is the orthodox place of the East Pole, so it is legitimate.”

“Besides, although I am of little virtue and power, I am willing to support Xuanmen for a while.”

“Only the Fire God is temporarily vacant.”

Obviously, four of the Five Gods have gone, and the remaining one, the Fire Emperor, does not seem to be suitable for Emperor Hong, which makes Emperor Hong frown for a moment.

But at this moment, Qi Yu spoke again.

“Of course, the rotating Heavenly Emperor is not constant, and the Five Gods may not be free forever. If there are Taoist friends who have achieved unprecedented merits to prove the origin of the universe, they should abdicate and complete the destiny of the universe.”

Although these words seemed like empty promises, they undoubtedly gave Emperor Hong hope. After all, attaining enlightenment was often a matter of life and death, so the throne of God would always be vacant. It was impossible for someone to give up the opportunity to attain enlightenment in order to occupy the throne, right?

This is obviously impossible!

Moreover, at this moment, Di Hong also figured out something, that is, strength is the root of everything.

If I were not strong enough, in terms of contribution, I might not be unable to appear in the list of Five Gods. Now, the two Heavenly Lords of Fengqi Mountain can be listed among them, but I am not. It is obvious that it is due to my lack of cultivation.

A person with great supernatural powers is obviously not qualified to compete for the position of Heavenly Emperor, and he would not be able to keep it even if he was given it. Instead of this, it would be better to aim for a position and wait for the future.

I think that if I devote myself to the path of immortality, acquire resources, and get noticed by several Heavenly Masters of Xuanmen, there will be a day when I will rise!

Just like that, Emperor Hong calmed down, looked at the five god positions set up by Qi Yu, and quickly set his sights on one of them.

What Emperor Hong had his eyes on was the God of Earth among the Five Emperors, the central Yellow Emperor, the position occupied by Nuwa.

The reason why he set his eyes on the Yellow Emperor’s throne was not only because the earth behind him was in line with the virtue of earth, but more importantly, he had heard that the great goddess Nuwa was also a great creator of nature. If Nuwa could attain enlightenment one day, wouldn’t it be his chance regardless of success or failure?
In this case, there is nothing more to say. I just need to practice diligently. Otherwise, if after Nuwa abdicates, I, the legitimate heir of the human emperor’s legal lineage, am still “unqualified”, then it would be truly a laughing stock!
After thinking it all through, Di Hong finally expressed his position to Qi Yu.

“Your consideration for the great cause is really thorough, and I admire you deeply.”

“In this case, my Human Emperor lineage is willing to help you. But fellow Daoist, please don’t let us down.”

Seeing Di Hong nod so readily, Qi Yu was satisfied and spoke immediately.

“Don’t worry, Fellow Daoist Di Hong. In my opinion, the Nine Dao Lords have great power, so there should be three Dao Lords to correct their status. Among them, the position of Human Emperor Dao Lord must belong to you, so I hope you will not refuse.”

Of course, Di Hong would not refuse this, and the deal between the two was officially reached.

Just like that, after discussing some things in secret, Di Hong left first, and then Qi Yu also went to his own Taoist palace in the holy land of the human race. He was in charge of the education of the race, and of course, he had his own place in the holy land of the human race.

After instructing his subordinates not to disturb him, he only kept a trace of his spiritual power to pay attention to the situation outside, and then began a short retreat to digest what he had gained in Guixu.
