Chapter 289: Heavenly Court Document (1)
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother sat high up on their thrones as the Jade Emperor twirled his beard.
He smiled at the immortals below and said, “Come, everyone, take a look. Let’s have a discussion.”
After being the ruler of the world for so many years, the Jade Emperor’s heart was tired.
Those fellows below were all listless and did not care.
They were all slacking off, and whenever they heard that something was wrong, they would all retreat.
The group of immortals received a document from the Jade Emperor and looked at it in their hands. They all fell into deep thought.
The content of the document was very simple. It was to draw up a division of the universe and govern it. Cultivators above the immortal stage in the mortal world would centralize the management of a few bills
That was probably what it meant.
Looking at his silent subordinates, the Jade Emperor was displeased. Although he was the Jade Emperor, the nominal ruler of the three stages, he commanded the common people as well.
But the current situation was that his words were not that easy to follow.
This made him very unhappy!
He said in a deep voice, “The desolate scattered universe is becoming bigger and bigger. Don’t think that I don’t know what kind of useless management mode they have. They set the rules and operate completely on their own. Does this seem like a responsible attitude? Between every planet, there is no certainty of any situation. Take the Moon Elder for example. Look at your marriage management! There are so many divorces! What kind of situation is this? Now even humans and demons are also entering into relationships. How many times have I told you? We are the Gods of Heaven and Earth. We can not play around like this!”
The Moon Elder lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.
He had no background. Most of the gods of the Heavenly Court had come from the Battle of Ascension. However, the Moon Elder was different. He was one of the few who had ascended to godhood and obtained the position of a god.
“I feel guilty. I will definitely correct myself when I go back…”
The Moon Elder, who did not dare talk back, could only agree with a heart full of grievance.
Although he had always firmly believed that freedom was important, on the surface, he still did not dare to disobey the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor swept his gaze across the gods again, he said, “The Dao Ancestor has established the Primal Chaos Universe and divided the universe into star domains. I feel that this is very constructive! Isn’t that right? We, on the other hand, have to learn from him. Work has to be meticulous. What I mean is to divide the current universe into eight great star domains! Each domain will have an emperor!”
The Jade Emperor had been studying the human world.
If he wanted to change, he had to learn!
Everyone was puzzled.
Someone couldn’t help but ask, “Your Majesty, the flow of Heaven and Earth is controlled by the gods. If we were to establish another emperor, we might have a conflict of authority.
The Jade Emperor laughed coldly in his heart!
Of course, he knew that there would be conflict.
But that was what he wanted.
The Jade Emperor pondered for a long time. Why were the emperors in the human world able to control their ministers and keep their word?
From the perspective of power and position, he could control those ministers.
In other words, although he could punish some people, it had to be because they had indeed done something wrong.
He couldn’t control the lives of these immortals. If he couldn’t control them in terms of power, who would listen to him?
Secondly, the ministers often had opponents and political enemies.
Was there such a situation in the Heavenly Court?
There definitely was.
The gods from the Jiejiao sect and the gods from the Chanism sect were clearly separated from each other. However, the biggest problem was that although these people did not like each other, there was no conflict of interest between the two sides.
The art of the Emperor, which was the art of balance, was to mediate through the conflict of interests and control the subordinates.
However, these people did not have any desires. They just ate and waited for death, and there were saints standing behind them.
Who could he control?
Therefore, after thinking about it, he decided to change the system.
He wanted to create a new operating system in addition to the gods of the Heavenly Court.
This was because the gods of the heavenly court usually divided the power according to the rules of the matter.
But now that the star domain was divided, they had to re-establish the person in charge.
Many powers would have to be localized in the future.
For example, the operation of celestial bodies. How many stars could be inhabited by living beings? How much spiritual energy was generated in the stars? What was the fate of the living beings on the stars? As the gods of the Heavenly Court, they could do things that ordinary immortals could not do.
Originally, these things were managed by special people. But after the division of power, the original God was going to be dethroned.
This was the first step. The most important thing was that after this, a new management system would be established. It would be outside the current system of the Heavenly Court and would be under the direct jurisdiction of the Jade Emperor. The power of promotion and removal would be in the hands of the Jade Emperor.
