Free Web NovelChapter 217: Chapter 208: I Say You’re All Otherworld Spies!
[Emperor Qian joyfully receives the "Celestial Decree," instantly turning the situation around.]
[The battle at Daluo Heaven - Void Great Wall is intense, providing him an excellent opportunity for Daoist Attainment. With the support of the Power of Nine Heavens, it’s expected that Cyan Cloud Sword Leader won’t refuse.]
[Thus, Emperor Qian wastes no time, embarking overnight with Sea-covering True Monarch towards Purple Sky Island to meet Cyan Cloud Sword Leader.]
"Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, this is the Celestial Decree, the reasoning within is clear. My promise regarding your seventh brother remains effective, what do you think?"
Emperor Qian wielded the decree, surrounded by purple clouds, speaking with a tone of negotiation, showing humility.
In the future, at the Void Great Wall, perhaps he would need to stand shoulder to shoulder with Cyan Cloud Sword Leader to face enemies. So how could he easily impose pressure with great force, only to increase unnecessary resentment?
Sea-covering True Monarch looked towards the monkey behind Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, a flicker of envy in his eyes.
This monkey was originally an ordinary stubborn stone at East Sea Cliff Mountain, but due to a fortuitous encounter, it received a thin strand of Divine Land Ancestral Vein Fortune and miraculously transformed into a monkey form. However, with such alien origins, its foundation was weak, making the path of cultivation exceedingly difficult. Even with a thousand years of arduous cultivation, it would be hard to escape the fate of exhausting its lifespan and returning to dust.
But the world is unpredictable, this monkey had an extraordinary fortune. As it was about to fade away, it unexpectedly formed an unbreakable bond with a reincarnated Great Divine Power User outside, even swearing brotherhood, completely transforming its destiny.
Over thousands of years, it journeyed through thorns and obstacles, finally entering the ranks of True Immortals.
Now, even Emperor Qian, the master of New Heaven, vows to help it attain the "Heaven and Earth Immortals."
Such honor, how astonishing!
Sea-covering True Monarch couldn’t help but envy.
"Cangtian? Let him come to talk with me." Ning Xunqiu shook his head.
Emperor Qian’s face instantly turned extremely dark upon hearing this, as the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader clearly did not regard him, the new lord of heaven.
Boom!
In Emperor Qian’s palm, the Celestial Decree suddenly turned to a sky full of ashes, and simultaneously, a majestic and indescribable great presence descended.
On Purple Sky Island, a dense purple cloud surged and rolled, slowly revealing a huge eye, a magnificent heavenly might spread, making all beings involuntarily bow down in worship.
Ning Xunqiu lightly frowned, then waved his hand, a Star River swept out from the void.
"Fellow Daoist Liuli’s Great Dao Divine Techniques..."
The Eye of the Heavens tightly locked onto the Green Robe Taoist, somewhat surprised.
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Qingyun’s origins... truly peculiar."
"Mountain and River Seal, Yunzhou Human Race, Ancestor Master of Cyan Mountain, a wisp of Purple Qi transformed from Innate Spirit of Jade Sky Immortal Island?"
Mountain and River Seal? Yunzhou Human Race? Mountain and River Seal in the hands of Cyan Cloud Sword Leader?! Is he the Human Race from Mountain and River Seal?!
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qian suddenly turned to Ning Xunqiu, an anger of being played surged in his heart.
The Mountain and River Seal is precisely transformed from Divine Land Ancestral Vein Fortune. He needs the recognition of ancestral vein fortune to attain "Divine Land Human Emperor," and Cyan Cloud Sword Leader is an indispensable part of it.
Is this the so-called "Enlightenment Tribulation"?
Randomly refreshed him with a Great Divine Power User holding a Great Dao Spiritual Treasure as an obstacle?
Emperor Qian felt a wave of powerlessness.
Ning Xunqiu remained unchanged in expression, not a bit panicked over his exposed identity, decisively said: "Cangtian, the Mountain and River Seal is my Companion Treasure, the cornerstone of attainment, never to return to Divine Land."
Shameless!!
Emperor Qian’s eyes opened wide with anger, flames burning in his eyes.
Yet the Eye of the Heavens at this moment fell into silent contemplation, speechless for a long time.
It naturally perceived that "Cyan Cloud Sword Leader" had already embarked on the path of Daoist Attainment, and his steps were faintly surpassing "Emperor Qian," coupled with his holding a Great Dao Spiritual Treasure...
After weighing the pros and cons, the Eye of the Heavens had made its decision.
"Two thousand years later, when Daoist Virtue’s injuries heal, we’ll completely emerge and break Otherworld to resolve the crisis in the Origin Realm. Meanwhile, you must settle the outcome."
Ning Xunqiu slightly frowned.
Qingxu Realm decides to fight the Yellow Heaven Realm for victory in two thousand years?
Is the timing so tight?
"Cangtian, this is unfair!"
Emperor Qian glared angrily, casting his gaze at Ning Xunqiu.
"Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, Sword Dao Divine Techniques are the first in slaughter, also coupled with Great Dao Spiritual Treasure, even our four Great Divine Power Users teamed up aren’t his match! He’s invincible in the mortal world, how can I compete with him?"
"Presumptuous!"
The Eye of the Heavens coldly snorted.
With this cold snort, amidst the rolling purple clouds, a sharp violet thunderbolt suddenly shot out, locking onto Emperor Qian.
"Your abilities are inferior to others... Now you come to discuss fairness with me? Speak one more word, and I’ll immediately annihilate your body and soul, reducing your Dao Fruit to dust." The Eye of the Heavens was icy and ruthless.
Emperor Qian trembled all over, lowered his head not daring to speak further.
Celestial Punishment Divine Thunder is the final tribulation for attaining Heaven and Earth Immortals. This Celestial Punishment Divine Thunder accounts for all karma, unable to cross becomes ashes, able to cross then lives as long as heaven, equally capable of obliterating the Taiyi Dao Fruit through Great Daoist Divine Techniques.
Ning Xunqiu’s gaze was calm, he had long anticipated this.
In the thousands of possibilities he inferred, the likelihood of the arrival being Cangtian or Nether Heaven was as high as ninety percent. At the critical moment of the Qingxu Realm crisis, as a top tier Great Divine Power User, with the "ordinary mind" of a Great Dao Divine, he would never choose to sever an arm.
If the Three Saints of Divine Land personally came, it would be nothing but a contest with him. With the full support of Master Linglong, even the Three Saints of Divine Land would find it difficult to shake him in the slightest.
Unless the Nine Heavens Three Saints lost their sanity, wanting to perish together with him.
Otherwise, the outcome would be as he expected.
Ning Xunqiu educates all beings, suppresses the Dragon Race, supports the Human Race, all with proper justification, executing actions with restraint, entirely within the boundaries. In the eyes of the heavens, he’s a "great good man" and the "pillar that heaven and earth desperately need."
Provided his undercover identity isn’t revealed.
"Daoist, please stay."
Just as the Eye of the Heavens slowly closed, a sudden harmonious and sacred hymn began resonating throughout the sky.
Following this, a dazzling golden lotus platform rose slowly, its brilliance igniting the entire world with radiant light.
On a lotus throne, there sat a dignified yet compassionate Buddha, none other than the Tathagata Buddha of the Western Heaven.
"Western Heaven, do you wish to challenge my decision as well?" The Eye of the Heavens turned towards Tathagata Buddha.
Tathagata Buddha smiled gently and spoke slowly:
"Fellow Daoist Qingyun is vastly skilled in divine techniques, and has acted tyrannically and wantonly in the mortal world for thousands of years, oppressing all beings. I have heard of this a little while on Sumeru Mountain." freewebnσvel.cøm
"Fellow Daoist Qingyun has acted so frivolously, disrupting the order of heaven and earth. This does not conform to the rules set in Outer Heaven that sacred beings must not interfere with the mortal world."
The Human Emperor’s heart stirred.
What a chance!
Great Divine Power Users should uphold boundaries and not easily meddle in the mortal world’s turmoil unless to resolve their fate and causality.
Years ago, the Human Race and Dragon Race intensified their conflict during a Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth. Great Divine Power Users descended into the lower realm, slaughtering the elites of both races, resulting in endless carnage and severe wounds to both races’ vitality.
Later, the Nine Heavens Three Saints and the Ancestral Dragon jointly established the celestial rules to balance Great Divine Power Users. But as time passed and Hao Tian dispersed the Dao, this Cyan Cloud Sword Leader had been left unchecked, and no one could restrain his actions.
If the Four Seas Human Race lacked the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, there wasn’t a single existence that attained the status of Heaven and Earth Immortals.
And the unity of the Divine Land Human Race.
He also allied with the Qi Cultivators of the Three Mountains, Seven Peaks, and Five Lakes, gathering countless powerful figures under his banner. Just by unifying heaven and earth, even if unable to deal with the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, reclaiming the Ancestral Vein Fortune of Divine Land, relying solely on Heaven and Earth Fortune, the Human Emperor would be enough to attain the Dao.
As for the greatest threat, the Dragon Race... these years have indeed been tortured by the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, rendering them miserable. Seventy-nine Dragon Monarchs were brutally suppressed, the Four Sea Dragon Kings forced into retreat, countless Flood Dragons fleeing everywhere, severely diminishing the vitality and strength of the Dragon Race.
Nothing to worry about!
In such a manner, as long as the Great Divine Power Users do not take action, the Daqian Divine Dynasty is undoubtedly the most powerful force in the mortal world, and the great work of unifying the world is close at hand.
The Human Emperor’s heart surged with uncontrollable joy.
His expression became increasingly solemn, and he spoke with steadfast determination:
"In the past, the Great Divine Power Users of the Human and Dragon Races wantonly slaughtered the living by relying on great divine techniques, causing endless carnage. This is a lesson from the past, and a teaching for future generations. For the peace of the world’s living beings, Great Divine Power Users should not interfere in the mortal world’s affairs lightly."
"This emperor and the four of the Daqian Divine Dynasty willingly set an example and abide by the celestial rules!"
The words of the Human Emperor resounded firmly.
The Eye of the Heavens hesitated briefly. The celestial rules were jointly led by Hao Tian and aimed to prevent the magical combat between sacred beings from affecting heaven and earth.
However, the ability of the celestial rules cannot completely constrain Great Divine Power Users who have attained "Taiyi" Dao Fruit. Great Divine Power Users from both races need not personally enter the arena, but can still deploy tactics secretly by leveraging causality.
Since then, a subtle balance was achieved between the two races, skillfully controlling the conflict within certain limits. Seeing this, Cangtian ceased excessive interference, as after all, causality and reincarnation would eventually have their reckoning time.
Yet now both sides are Daoists, and he does not want to favor any party.
At that moment.
An anomaly appeared abruptly in the sky, as the shadows of a seal, a scroll, and a tower descended from the sky, transforming into three figures in an instant.
The gaze of the Venerable of Dao and Virtue lightly swept over Ning Xunqiu, and with hidden animosity towards the impish figure who stole his Mountain and River Seal, he spoke:
"It should be so."
Seeing this, Daoist Butian and Taixuan Daoist understood, and they nodded immediately.
"Our Dragon Race is willing to abide by the celestial rules!"
The immense form of a giant dragon slowly ascended from the waves of the East Sea, with an overwhelming presence.
The clouds seemed to sense this, gradually gathering and surging incessantly, eventually transforming into a majestic giant dragon, soaring high above the Nine Heavens, echoing with the sea dragon, forming a spectacular sight.
"In the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, each relies on their abilities!"
Tathagata Buddha expressed his stance.
The Human Race Emperor Qian expressed his stance.
The Three Saints of Divine Land expressed their stance.
The Dragon Race God expressed their stance.
Seeing this, Tathagata Buddha of the Western Heaven displayed a satisfied look, and turned his gaze towards Ning Xunqiu, speaking with profound implication:
"Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, you are a Great Divine Power User, what are your thoughts?"
He was certain Ning Xunqiu would agree.
In his eyes.
He and any one of the Taixuan Daoist could easily restrain the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, and if the two joined forces, they could effortlessly suppress the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader. It was only out of respect for Liuli Immortal Venerable that they were providing Cyan Cloud Sword Leader with a dignified exit.
Preventing Cyan Cloud Sword Leader from attaining the Dao, although with no direct benefit, yet the continuous slaying of his Buddha’s Son and Buddha’s Grandson by the Sword Cultivators of Cyan Cloud Peak had already accumulated deeply in his heart. His disciples sent to invite him had been ruthlessly turned away before ever meeting the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader.
This Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, before attaining the Dao, is already so tyrannical, if truly allowed to succeed in attaining the Dao, what then for this neighbor... it would be intolerable?
"What thoughts..."
Ning Xunqiu looked around, his expression unchanged.
Venerable of Dao and Virtue had half a face of withered wood, Butian was that woman, but her true self was still blocking the gap. In other words, among the Three Saints of Divine Land, only Taixuan Daoist wielding the Treasure Tower could descend to compete with him?
Cangtian’s attitude was unclear, but the Nine Heavens Dao-Protecting Celestial Venerable should not dare to descend at this time.
On the Dragon Race’s side, the Ancestral Dragon and Ying Long were absent, he completely disregarded them.
He only needed to deal with the Human Race Emperor Qian, Tathagata Buddha, Taixuan Daoist...
What major scenes has he, Ning Xunqiu, not witnessed, and this lineup qualifies to speak with him?
Does it qualify to make him recognize that so-called celestial rules?
Ning Xunqiu laughed silently, a Star River Scroll in his palm slowly unfolded in the sky, an indescribable divine might descended.
"Daring to obstruct my attainment of the Dao!"
"I suspect you all are spies from the Otherworld!"
...
