Investiture of the Gods: I Confer Immortality at Lutai, and the Dao Ancestor Is Furious

Before transmigrating into the world of Investiture of the Gods, Sun Yu was ordered to oversee the construction of Deer Terrace. Once it was complete, the [Investiture of Immortals Ranking] descended and charged him with completing the great work of investing immortals.

Each time he completed an investiture mission, Sun Yu not only received a cultivation-realm gift pack from the [Investiture of Immortals Ranking], but also inherited the legacy of the immortal he had invested. These legacies helped him rapidly grow stronger, until he ultimately attained the status of a Sage.

[Ding! Successfully invested Jiang Ziya as an immortal. Cultivation increased to the Celestial Immortal Realm. Legacy received: Apricot Yellow Banner]

[Ding! Successfully invested the Four Generals of the Mo Family as immortals. Cultivation increased to the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm. Legacies received: Azure Cloud Sword, Hunyuan Umbrella, Jade Pipa]

[Ding! Successfully invested Daoist Randeng as an immortal. Cultivation increased to the Quasi-Sage Realm. Legacy received: Glazed Lamp]

The Three Sects were dumbfounded. The names on the Investiture of the Gods list they had agreed upon were vanishing one by one. Even Jiang Ziya, who was supposed to preside over the investiture, had become an immortal, and he had not even left behind his magic treasures.

The Western Teachings panicked. Jieyin and Zhunti sat on their lotus thrones, frowning in dismay. Several key Buddhas and Bodhisattvas essential to the rise of the West had ascended to immortality ahead of schedule. What happened to them being destined to join the cause?

Heaven was in chaos. The Six Ministries' Gods had all been invested as immortals ahead of time, leaving the entire Heavenly Court full of immortals who refused to submit to Haotian Shangdi's rule.

In the end, even Dao Ancestor Hongjun was enraged. He descended to the mortal realm in fury and rebuked him: "You insolent brat, how dare you ruin my great work of investing the gods?"
