It would be best if one could balance one’s personal interests with the interests of the Heavenly Court. However, reality was often cruel. It was very difficult to have both.
“I will immediately use the voice of the Great Dao to inform all living beings of this matter.” Hong Jun laughed. “In addition, be it Mount Numinous or the Heavenly Court, all cultivators at the Immortal stage or above will not be affected by karmic merit during the great tribulation. If they kill the other immortals, they will also receive merit, which will help them increase their cultivation bases.”
Clearly, this was encouraging slaughter and fighting.
“Will this cause too many casualties? I’m afraid it will harm the peace of the heavens,” Nuwa said.
Hong Jun raised his brows and said softly, “The so-called immortals have not truly attained the Dao, but they can enjoy eternal life. They can shine with the Heavens and the Earth. This is not in line with the way the Heavens and the Earth operate. Right now, in the universe, everyone is cultivating. This situation will continue. “Do you think this is appropriate? If you want to enjoy the blessings of immortality, you will definitely meet with a calamity! This calamity is an opportunity for the quasi-saints and immortals, and it is also a baptism for them. Only those who survive are qualified to take a step closer!”
At this point, Hong Jun swept his gaze across all the saints and said meaningfully, “It is the same between all of you.”
Everyone fell into silence.
In the Seven Phoenixes sect, Lu Ping was currently cultivating. So far, he had no intention of getting involved in the conflict between the Heavenly Court and Mount Numinous.
He had been cultivating within the sect during this period of time.
Moreover, his contribution points were about to reach the eight million mark.
He could also go to the ninth level of the Scripture Pavilion to experience the pleasure of comprehending the Dao that Huang Xiaoqi had mentioned.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Lu Ping’s ear!
“The Tribulation of Ten Thousand Immortals has begun. From today onwards, until the Heavenly Court or Mount Numinous is destroyed, all cultivators above the Immortal stage will be rewarded with Heaven and Earth merit if they kill the other immortals. All quasi-saints will be rewarded with a wisp of Primal Purple Qi if they kill the other quasi-saints!”
A cold and emotionless voice sounded in the ears of all living beings.
At this moment, Yun Xiao, Kong Xuan, and the other quasi-saints widened their eyes at the same time.
Immediately after, a wisp of purple gas appeared out of thin air and circled around the head of the quasi-saint before entering his body.
Within a planet in the universe, a man was feeling the Primal Purple Qi in his body.
The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile!
“Good! Good! Good! I finally have the chance to take another step forward.” Lu Ya smiled very happily.
To all the quasi-saints, this was good news!
The Primal Purple Qi was famous. All the quasi-saints who had survived the primeval era knew its use.
As long as one could obtain it, one could obtain the chance to become a saint!
No quasi-saint could resist this temptation.
After hearing the words by his ear, Lu Ping’s expression became serious.
As soon as this news came out, it was almost foreseeable that the fights between immortals in all parts of the universe would become more and more intense.
This was not a question of whether a person wanted to or not, but a matter of interest.
Then, Lu Ping suddenly realized that his sense of control over Fengming Planet had disappeared!
That’s right!
It had disappeared into thin air.
“The authority of the planet official is gone?” Lu Ping muttered to himself. He had no idea what was going on.
At this moment, Huang Xiaoqi entered the room and said, “The restriction on immortals is gone!”
“What?” Lu Ping asked blankly.
“The effect of Fengming Planet on the forced ascension of cultivators above the Immortal stage is gone!”
Upon hearing this news, Lu Ping’s heart tightened.
He understood.
The Heavenly Court’s overall control over the universe was gone.
This was for sure!
“Did you hear that voice just now?”
Huang Xiaoqi said excitedly, “In this way, there’s a big chance of a breakthrough in cultivation. If we can become saints, we can protect the Phoenix clan.”
Speaking of Huang Beisi, he was actually a quasi-saint.
He had already brought the Phoenix clan to the other star domains.
Feeling the Primal Purple Qi enter his body, his eyes were filled with ambition.
If he had enough strength, he didn’t need to worry about anyone.
Or rather, this was the wish of all the Phoenix clan.
Lu Ping looked at Huang Xiaoqiin front of him, not knowing what to say.
“This way, if you’re not careful, you might die and your Dao might disappear,” Lu Ping said.
Huang Xiaoqi said seriously, “Now, it’s not up to us to decide whether to fight or not. Even if you don’t provoke others, they might provoke you.”
This was true, and Lu Ping had to admit it.
Especially now that the restriction on ascension had disappeared, this news would soon be exposed.
Once it spread, there would be people who wanted to invade Fengming Planet. Would they come back?
No one could change that.
“No matter what, it’s better to improve your cultivation first.”
Lu Ping sighed.
In Purple Firmament Palace, a group of saints came out.
The Grand Supreme Old Lord called out to another saint.
“You didn’t say anything just now. What do you think?”
As the two of them flew in the void, the Grand Supreme Old Lord asked.
The current Tongtian was no longer the same as the two of them.
The Heavenly Venerate of Primordial Beginning said, “That Jade Emperor is not an honest person. Sooner or later, there will be backlash. I don’t want to support him!”
The Grand Supreme Old Lord frowned and said, “You want to support those two guys from the Western Church? They are even more ambitious. If you do this, I’m afraid that there might not be a good outcome. Let’s not talk about other things. Your disciples have all joined the Western Church. They will definitely plot against you!”
The Heavenly Venerate of Primordial Beginning smiled slightly. He voiced out his thoughts, “The Dao ancestor said that killing a quasi-saint and obtaining the Primal Purple Qi did not necessarily mean that they had to join the Heavenly Court or Mount Numinous. My disciples can naturally choose not to join either side and fight against a quasi-saint on their own. As long as they can kill the other side, it will be fine.”
Hearing this, the Grand Supreme Lord shook his head and said, “How can it be so easy? In a battle between cultivators, one has to look at the magic treasures and the other has to look at the number of people. Your disciples have good cultivations, but in terms of combat strength, they may not be as good as the top figures of the Heavenly Court and Mount Numinous.”
The Heavenly Venerate of Primordial Beginning naturally knew that what he said was right.
“Humph, so what? I can give the Pangu Banner to either Tai Yi or Guang Chengzi to support one person. With this treasure protecting them, they will be invincible!”
The Heavenly Venerate of Primordial Beginning was going to spend a lot of money this time.
He was even willing to give the Pangu Banner, one of his most powerful magic treasures, to his disciple!
Of course, the person he wanted to support was either Tai Yi or Guang Chengzi.
These two people were both outstanding disciples of his sect.
Moreover, they were loyal to him and did not betray him. Among them, Tai Yi valued friendship very much.
At this moment, he was actually hesitating.
After Shao Deng left, Guang Chengzi was the leader of the disciples.
However, based on his observations over the years, Tai Yi was even more straightforward.
It had to be said that when a group of disciples joined the Buddhist sect, it was inevitable that he would have other thoughts towards them.
Hence, he was very hesitant.
When the Grand Supreme heard his words, he pondered for a moment and started to think.
Should he also give Xuan Du a protective treasure?
The Heavenly Venerate of Primordial Beginning seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He smiled and said, “You are thinking about Xuan Du, right? I say, you should be like me and give him a protective treasure. You only have one disciple. If he dies, it will be too late for regrets.”
“You are right.”
The Grand Supreme Old Lord smiled and said, “I will go back and take a look. Whichever treasure he wants, he can bring it with him!”
“I think we have to make a gentleman’s agreement this time. Our disciples must not attack each other. As for who becomes a saint, it depends on the opportunity. What do you think?”
“Very good, very good!”
After some discussion, the two of them still made the agreement.
On the other side, The Patriarch of the Heaven sect was alone.
The disciples of Golden Ao Island had already left.
He had also closed the passaint to the outside of Golden Ao Island and hadn’t seen them for many years.
He felt that he had lost face.
Although he had the chance to become a saint, no one could give him any treasures.
“Forget it! I Can’t let them have no one to protect them. This is also an opportunity for revenge!” He sighed and made some calculations before heading to the southeast star domain!
