Black Tech Internet Cafe System-Chapter 922: Investiture of the Gods!
The TV Series, Investiture of the Gods, finally came to an end.
When Daoist Hongjun came, the viewers realized that, when the three sect masters greeted each other by calling each other ‘Daoist brother’, it wasn’t a friendly gesture but that they were indeed brothers under one master! Now that the truth came out, the viewers had to believe what they had deemed impossible!
It turned out that the heaven-shaking war between immortals of the two sects was a conflict between brothers from one master!?
How powerful is this master?!
After Daoist Hongjun came, everything was settled. He reprimanded Sect Master Tongtian for his leniency on his disciples. As the creator of the Gods’ Investiture List, Sect Master Tongtian entered the fray and knew nothing but killing, not making peace for the immortals of his sect. On the other hand, Daoist Hongjun ordered the Primeval Lord of Heaven and Laozi to retreat and restrain from fighting in the future. Finally, they each returned to their own mountains to develop their own sects.
Su Daji and the other two demons from Xuanyuan Tomb were decapitated, and King Zhou set himself on fire in the Star-Plucking Tower. The Shang Dynasty was over, and the Zhou Dynasty succeeded it.
At this moment, the investiture of the gods began.
On the Gods’ Investiture Platform, stars lit up one by one as immortals stood in rows. Jiang Ziya held the jade talisman and golden book in his hands. After placing the talisman on the desk, he stood in the middle of the platform with a yellow flag in his left hand and the God-Thrashing Whip in the right hand. Pure Fortune God Bo Jian guarding the Gods’ Investiture Platform stood below the altar, waiting for orders.
“Bo Jian, can you hang the Gods’ Investiture List under the platform? Gods must come in order and can’t make a move without permission.”
The moment that he said those words, winds and shadows moved above the Gods’ Investiture Platform as if countless immortal souls were summoned!
“This… isn’t it the scene in the trailer?!” the viewers exclaimed.
“The Gods’ Investiture List is out!”
“So, this is the Gods’ Investiture List…!?”
Everyone was elated when they saw this scene since they were going to witness a huge event that had never happened since Heaven was separated from Earth – Gods’ Investiture!
Everyone trembled in excitement nontribally.
Pure Fortune God Bo Jian who guarded the Gods’ Investiture Platform hung the Gods’ Investiture List below the platform. Then, gods swarmed up and saw that the first one on the list was Bo Jian.
“Who’s Bo Jian? He’s the No. 1 on the list?!”
The viewers were puzzled. “Yeah. He has been guarding the Gods’ Investiture Platform… we didn’t see him in the war between Shang and Zhou…”
Jiang Ziya said, “Bo Jian once was a great general under Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan. He made great achievements in the battle with Chiyou before he died in the North Sea, contributing his life to his nation with commendable loyalty. It is a pity that he had been trapped in a ridge on the seashore! Luckily, he met Jiang Shang who had the mission of gods’ investiture. As a reward for successfully guarding the platform and your loyal soul, you’re granted the position of Pure Fortune Main God leading the eight departments of 365 gods in three realms. Now, show respect toward this command!”
“Emperor Xuanyuan?!”
“Battled with Chi You?!”
“Wasn’t that the origin of this ‘Huaxia’?!”
Obviously, the viewers were very curious about this mysterious and distant nation and were very interested in the legends. Even a few words about the distant history roused great excitement in them.
“Huang Feihu is granted the title of Great Emperor of East Mountain, the first of the five great mountains! He’s given the responsibility of looking after the 18 levels of Hell in the Underworld. Anything related to life, death, and reincarnation of humans, gods, immortals, and ghosts are to be determined by East Mountain!”
“Whoa! General Huang Feihu was granted godhood!”
“Great Emperor of East Mountain! It sounds awesome!”
As godly light lit up on Gods’ Investiture Platform, the viewers cheered. They had watched how this loyal King Wucheng was forced to rebel against Morning Son after King Zhou sexually harassed his wife and caused her death. When King Wucheng died in the battleground, everyone was sad for the loss of this great general.
They were surprised that he was granted the title of Great Emperor of East Mountain after death!
“Awesome!” the viewers exclaimed happily.
“I grant Wen Zhong the title of Ninth Heaven Thunder Lord, leading the 24 officials of the Thunder Department to create clouds and rain and guard the Heaven Immortals!”
“Ya! Grand Preceptor Wen became a god as well!” The viewers exclaimed again. This old official had served two kings and died for the nation. Although he had been on the side of Yin Shang, the viewers had high regard for him.
Besides, the 24 officials of the Thunder Department were the Ten Heavenly Masters who had built the Ten Ultimate Arrays and his previous subordinates.
“Mo Liqing, Mo Lihai, Mo Lishou, and Mo Lihong. The four generals of the Mo Family are granted the titles of the Four Heavenly Kings!”
The viewers exclaimed, “They are the Four Heavenly Kings?!”
As the gods were granted titles, the viewers let out waves of exclamations. They were not startled but touched and excited for a reason that they couldn’t describe.
“So, this is the background of the gods of Huaxia?!”
The 36 Celestial Dippers, 72 Nether Evils, and 28 Constellations were all immortals of the Jie Sect!
Li Jing was also on the list. “This is where the Pagoda-Bearer Devaraja Li come from?”
The viewers watched how the mortals, cultivators, immortals became the 365 Pure Fortune Gods on the Gods’ Investiture List.
“So, this is the story behind the gods that we saw in Journey to the West?!”
There is such a grand legendary story behind them!?
At this moment, complex emotions such as excitement, shock, and joy filled the hearts of the viewers. They were thrilled and touched since they had witnessed how the mortals in the story obtained super powerful strength, and how humans and demons were able to rank among the gods!
They had a different perspective from the viewers in the world where Fang Qi had come from. As cultivators and warriors who were still struggling in the mortal world where the Great Dao was dim and vague, the path of immortality was obscure, and the Heavenly Dao was cut off from them, it was understandable that they were excited, stunned, and inspired by what they had watched!
Look! Those gods in the great land of Huaxia have also cultivated in the mortal world. They had created grand mythical chapters in the mortal world.
It might be the worst era in a catastrophe, but it was also the most glorious era since it created so many heroes!
The four generals of the Mo Family, Ten Heavenly Masters, Grand Preceptor Wen, Three Sky Fairies…
Ten Ultimate Arrays, Nine-Turn Yellow River Array, Five-colored Godly Light…
Ocean-Settling Bead, Immortal Slaying Sword, Heaven-Turning Stamp, Chaos Essence Golden Dipper…
These names were familiar to the viewers while the legend of gods’ investiture had been branded in the minds of these cultivators and warriors.
By now, the images of the gods had been engraved in their heads.
The duties of the gods in the TV Series were not dominating over and suppressing mortals in the Lower Region, but…
For example, the Main God of the Thunder Department had the duty to create rain and clouds to aid the peaceful life and nurture living beings in the world. Following the decree of the Heavens, they would remove the evils and help the good people achieve a saintly reign.
Another example, the Main God of the Fire Department had the duty to monitor and investigate the good and evil doings in the mortal world.
Zhao Gongming, the Dragon-Tiger Mystic Shrine Immortal Master, led the four main gods under him to spread blessings and fortunes to the world…
They came from the mortal world, and now they kept order in one place and protected the mortals.
At this moment, not only the viewers in the shops, but Valkyrie Isabela felt reverent after watching the scenes on the big screen.
“These gods…!?” She had never imagined that there were such gods in another dimension.
With those gods as examples, she suddenly felt the heaviness of her responsibility as a goddess.
Then, she thought about it. “Ya!”
With limbs that didn’t follow her orders, she was still paralyzed in the pool. While harboring great ambitions, she continued to watch the TV Series.
