Chapter 124 Aftermath
"Be careful!"
When Yao Chi Jin Mu heard Hao Tian talking about several saints, she immediately showed a worried look on her face and advised: "Your Majesty, be careful with your words! Saints should not be insulted. It's fine if you and I talk about it in private! But if you talk nonsense in front of outsiders, you can't. After all, some saints are really narrow-minded!"
If a saint becomes jealous of you, he may not do anything inappropriate on the surface because Haotian is the Emperor of Heaven designated by Daoist ancestor Hongjun, but who knows what he might do to you behind your back.
Remember, it is easy to dodge an open attack, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.
not to mention……
Is this the calculation of a saint?
In the ancient times, countless great masters have fallen. Although no one has ever seen a saint take action personally, who can be sure that there is no saint's will behind it?
“Hahaha!” Haotian was a little unimpressed when he heard that, and laughed: “Junior sister, what you said is very true! However, this Heavenly Palace is my territory, even the saints dare not easily spy on it! I will not be so unwise! At least... openly, I will never conflict with those saints!”
He, the Emperor of Heaven, was suppressed by several saints and felt very aggrieved. When he saw Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi being humiliated, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
That's understandable!
but……
Taoist Yuchen's act of averting disaster with his own body still made his eyes light up.
The saint looks down on the universe and all living beings in heaven and earth. He seems to be high above everyone else, but in fact he is still bound by the laws of nature and needs to follow the trend of nature.
If he could borrow this great force of Heaven, he would not be afraid at all even if the saint himself came, let alone an incarnation of a saint.
After all, although the saint is powerful, he is still under the way of heaven. As long as he can obtain the power of heaven, he can become the true emperor of heaven who commands the world.
Haotian thought for a moment, then looked at Yaochi and said, "Not long ago, Yinglong of the Dragon Clan and Xuanniao of the Phoenix Clan expressed to me their desire to be close to the Heavenly Court, saying that they were willing to obey my orders openly! Junior Sister, do you think it is possible to completely turn the Dragon and Phoenix Clan into vassals of the Heavenly Court?"
"Disaster!"
Upon hearing this, Yao Chi shook her head and said, "Although the Dragon and Phoenix tribes are in decline, they have a profound foundation that is far beyond the reach of Heaven. How could they willingly obey Heaven's orders? It is already very difficult for them to bow to Heaven in public! It is absolutely impossible to make them die for Heaven!"
The Phoenix Clan is arrogant and will not roost except on the Wutong trees. Although Xuanniao is in charge of the Phoenix Clan, there are still many who do not accept her leadership.
The situation of the dragon clan is not much better. Apart from the former ancestor dragon, no one can make the entire dragon clan bow down to them and give orders to all its members.
Mirage Dragon can't do that.
Yinglong can't do it either.
Otherwise, Gui Che and Ji Meng would not have joined the demon clan!
"It was impossible before, but it may not be possible in the future!"
“The karma of the Dragon and Phoenix clans is extremely deep. Now Daoist Master Yuchen has transformed into a heavenly calamity, like a sharp sword hanging over the heads of all living beings in the prehistoric world!”
"These beings who have been burdened with karma must have been like ants on a hot pot, anxiously running around! If they could become gods in heaven and obey my orders, they would be able to avoid these disasters. I'm afraid they would all flock to it and wish to join heaven immediately!"
An incomparable brilliance suddenly burst out from Haotian's eyes, a powerful momentum that overwhelmed the three realms and six paths, and shocked all living beings in the universe.
At this moment, he was full of energy and looked like a true emperor.
"This……"
Yao Chi was shocked when he heard this.
Although Haotian's idea is not very realistic, if it is accomplished, those cultivators who are not sure of their ability to survive the tribulation will definitely flock to join the Heavenly Court.
perhaps……
It will no longer be a joke for Heaven to rule over the three realms.
“Fellow Daoist Yuchen, you are truly my lucky star!” Haotian was in high spirits at this moment, and could not help but laugh: “First, you opened up the thirty-six heavens, and then let Zhao Xuantan join the Heavenly Court and become the Dragon and Tiger Xuantan True Lord. Now, you have even set up a heavenly tribulation, laying a solid foundation for the rise of the Heavenly Court!”
"Moreover, Yinglong and Xuanniao were both powerful beings in ancient times. They were always arrogant, but after coming into contact with Taoist Fellow Yuchen, they showed goodwill to our Heavenly Court!"
"If you say that there is no push from Daoist Fellow Yuchen behind this, I don't believe it!"
Upon hearing this, Yao Chi Jin Mu frowned slightly: "If you are being nice to me for no reason, you are either a traitor or a thief! Daoist Yu Chen, I'm afraid you have some ulterior motive in helping my Heavenly Court like this!"
She didn't believe that Haotian didn't understand this truth, nor did she believe that Tongtian would have nothing better to do and devote all his energy to helping them strengthen the Heavenly Court.
"It doesn't matter!"
Haotian looked deep in the eyes, waved his hand towards Yao Chi Jin Mu and said: "No matter what Senior Brother Tongtian has planned, the situation is favorable to our Heavenly Court! At this time, if I continue to hesitate, I am afraid that I will never rise in this life, and can only be a mediocre puppet emperor of heaven!"
"Brother, you..."
Upon hearing this, Queen Mother of the West seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Haotian smiled and said, "I know what I'm doing! I won't act rashly. Besides, it's not up to me to save the immortals and gods in the heaven from disasters! I don't have the final say on this matter, and neither does Taoist Yuchen. We still need to get Taoist Ancestor's consent!"
He turned to look at Yao Chi Jin Mu and said firmly: "I plan to go to Zixiao Palace to meet Daozu and see if I can get a hint of the secret from him!"
The saint is immortal and high above, just like the sky, stretching across the heads of all living beings. But above the saint's head, there is an even higher sky, and that is - Taoism Ancestor Hongjun!
If the saint is the spokesperson of the Way of Heaven and can represent the meaning of the Way of Heaven, then the Taoist ancestor who is in harmony with the Way of Heaven is the ruler of the Way of Heaven.
What he meant, to a certain extent, is the same as the meaning of heaven.
As long as he can convince Daozu to give some support to the Heavenly Court and protect the immortals and gods of the Heavenly Court from disasters, the Heavenly Court's control over the Three Realms will no longer be an empty talk. "Brother, you can go with peace of mind!" Yao Chi walked to Haotian's side and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, "Leave the Heavenly Court to me during this period!"
……
At the same time, on the Sun Star, the Demon Emperor Di Jun, who was absorbing the Great Japanese Source and wanted to recover as soon as possible, could not help but feel shocked when he learned that Taoist Yu Chen had transformed himself into a calamity to bring disaster to hundreds of millions of practitioners in the prehistoric world.
“Heavenly Tribulation!” A trace of sadness flashed across Di Jun’s face. “If the Demon Court had been able to master this authority, how could it have fallen to this point?”
pity……
The glory of the demon race was millions of years ago!
He looked at Wuzhiqi and asked, "Why hasn't the ghost car come back yet? What happened?"
Not long ago, Emperor Jun sent the Demon Saint Gui Cha to the Heavenly Palace to seek the throne of the Sun God. Now that the other party has not returned yet, he is very worried.
Wuzhiqi, who was previously hit by him and thrown into the turbulent flow of the void, although he saved his life and returned successfully, he also suffered considerable injuries.
Both of them are not in their prime now.
If the fact that Di Jun has returned is exposed, it would only take one powerful person to take action, and they would probably be unable to resist and fall into an irretrievable situation.
Upon hearing this, Wuzhiqi immediately revealed a bitter smile: "Your Majesty, you don't know that the Ghost Chariot had a conflict with Haotian and was suppressed by Haotian!"
"what?"
Emperor Jun was horrified.
He didn't understand why Guiche was suppressed by Haotian when he asked for a deity position?
Although the Heavenly Palace is just an empty shell now, there are still many hidden players arranged by powerful people in the Heavenly Palace. It is not a difficult thing for Wuzhiqi to know that the Ghost Chariot entered the Heavenly Palace from the North Gate of Heaven and never came out again, and Haotian has never thought of concealing this matter.
If he doesn't show his edge from time to time, any cultivator in this ancient world will dare to humiliate him.
Di Jun's face was as gloomy as water. "What about Bai Ze and the others? As powerful masters of the demon race, when they learned that the Ghost Chariot was suppressed by Haotian, didn't they have any reaction at all?"
Wuzhiqi sighed upon hearing this and said, "The karma of the demon race today is very deep. In just half a day, thousands of demon race members of the True Immortal Realm perished under the heavenly calamity. I'm afraid that Bai Ze and the others are now too busy to take care of themselves! How can they have the time to care about the Ghost Car Demon Saint who disagrees with them?"
Husbands and wives are birds of the same forest, and when disaster strikes, they fly separately.
Even husband and wife are like this.
not to mention……
Is it a former colleague?
Moreover, because of Guiche's extreme personality, his relationship with Bai Ze and others is not very good. In the current dire situation, it is obviously unrealistic to expect Bai Ze and others to stand up for Guiche.
"That's unreasonable!"
A raging rage suddenly rose in Di Jun's eyes.
In the past, the demon clan dominated the universe, and even the saints had to give them some face.
But don't want to...
Now Haotian, a puppet emperor, dares not take the demon clan seriously.
Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that the demon clan now has no backbone, no demon king they can trust, and no one who can suppress all different opinions.
The demon clan is now in a state of disarray.
……
While Emperor Jun was helpless and furious, Taiqing Laozi also came to Jin'ao Island riding a green ox.
"I've met the great uncle!"
The Golden Spirit Mother brought several disciples including Wu Yunxian to pay their respects.
As soon as the heavenly calamity began, thunder fell on Jin'ao Island and the nearby fairy islands. Nearly half of the disciples of the Jiejiao were panicking to deal with the disaster.
Therefore, the Jiejiao, which claimed to have thousands of immortals coming to pay homage, could not spare a few disciples to welcome Taiqing Laozi, the supreme saint of heaven.
but……
Fortunately, Taiqing Laozi doesn't care about these things.
He looked at the Golden Spirit Mother and asked directly, "Where is Tongtian?"
The Golden Spirit Holy Mother sighed and answered truthfully, "Master, a few months ago, the teacher announced that he would be in seclusion! He handed over all the affairs of the sect to me and my senior brother! If we have any difficult decisions, we should go to Yu Yutian in Shangqingjing and ask Yuchen Daojun to make the decision! At this moment, the teacher should still be in seclusion!"
Facing the saint, the Golden Spirit Mother dared not lie and could only answer with gritted teeth.
Taiqing Laozi had no intention of making things difficult for the Golden Spirit Holy Mother. He looked into the depths of the Green Travel Palace and said, "Tongtian, I'm here, why don't you come out to see me?"
