A sound like Yellow Bell Great Bell resounded outside the Golden Crow tribe.

Within the Golden Crow Clan, many powerful figures wore grim expressions.

You injured my Golden Crow Race's prince, and now that I haven't bothered you, you come here acting all high and mighty, even demanding that the Golden Crow Clan Leader come over to hear the imperial decree.

This is truly infuriating yet laughable.

Within the Golden Crow Clan, not a single powerful figure ventured out; they remained seated, their eyes cold and indifferent.

However, outside the Golden Crow Clan.

The person who delivered the decree was a powerful immortal saint, not Immortal King.

He stood high above, holding a decree in his hand. Seeing that no one came, he wasn't embarrassed at all. After all, it would be strange if a powerful Golden Crow Race came out.

"Heavens above! The Lord of the Heavenly Court declares: The Golden Crow Tenth Prince, by nature unruly, revealed his true form and destroyed the Spirit Vein of the Immortal Realm. He was discovered by the Immortal King of Heaven, who, in order to save all living beings, used an Imperial Immortal King to kill him. Although his actions were impulsive, his crime did not warrant death. The Golden Crow Clan Leader must provide the Heavenly Court with an answer to this matter within three days. Otherwise, the Golden Crow Race will be expelled from the Immortal Realm after three days. This decree is hereby issued!"

The decree was issued, its sound resounding throughout the entire Golden Crow Clan.

Bang!

Within the Golden Crow Clan, the Golden Crow Crown Prince was the first to speak, slamming his hand on the Jade Table, which produced a loud bang.

"Is the Heavenly Court truly so shameless? They attacked and killed my brother, yet they twisted the truth and turned black into white. My clan didn't even bother to cause trouble for your Heavenly Court, but instead you came to cause trouble for us first? Do you really think my Golden Crow Race is afraid of death?"

The Golden Crow Crown Prince roared in response, his eyes blazing with two flames, trembling with rage.

Let alone the Golden Crow Crown Prince, who in the entire Golden Crow Race isn't angry? Who isn't furious?

"We did not reveal our true forms when we gathered together. It was only after we were being chased that we revealed our true forms."

The Golden Crow Eighth Prince spoke up and explained earnestly.

However, the tenth prince shook his head, telling his brothers to be quiet, because they had no chance to explain this matter, and it was not something they could get involved in; they should just listen quietly.

"Heavenly Court, you are far too arrogant."

"Di Tian, do you really think my Golden Crow Race is afraid of death?"

"You, Di Tian, you clearly attacked and killed my prince first, yet you say such things. Fine, fine, fine."

The powerful members of the Golden Crow Race spoke up one after another, their anger reaching a fever pitch.

The whole thing was deliberately caused trouble by the Heavenly Court. If it weren't for Lu Changsheng's intervention, the Golden Crow Race would probably only have the Golden Crow Crown Prince left as a royal heir.

They didn't go to the Heavenly Court for the time being because they didn't want to break off relations so quickly. But what they didn't expect was that the Heavenly Court would not only distort the truth but also make false accusations first. How could this not make them angry?

"Chieftain, let's fight them!"

"Clan leader, what are you afraid of? Let's go straight to the Heavenly Court."

"Chieftain, revive our clan's Supreme Emperor Artifact, let's charge in!"

One after another, the powerful Golden Crow spoke up. They simply couldn't swallow this insult. The Golden Crow Race were a prominent race in the Immortal Realm, and to be humiliated like this was something they simply couldn't bear.

Inside the main hall.

The Golden Crow Clan Leader took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and after a short while, he opened them. Two beams of divine light pierced through the void and shone directly on the sky above the Central Immortal Realm.

"Di Tian, are you really determined to fight to the death?"

The Golden Crow Clan Leader spoke in an extremely gloomy voice.

He didn't immediately fly into a rage because he understood that turning against the Heavenly Court at this stage was indeed irrational, and the Golden Crow Race had no right to completely break with the Heavenly Court.

Of course, the Golden Crow Race isn't truly without any trump cards; they do have some, but those trump cards are only used as a last resort, unless the Golden Crow Race is on the verge of extinction.

Now, the Golden Crow Clan Leader just wants an answer.

If the Heavenly Court is merely offering a pretext, the Golden Crow Race might choose to swallow their anger. However, if Di Tian clearly intends to suppress the Golden Crow Race, then none of them will back down.

The Central Immortal Realm.

As the Golden Crow Clan Leader's voice rang out.

After a short while, Di Tian's voice rang out.

A response was given.

"If a satisfactory answer is not received within three days, Golden Crow will be removed from the Immortal Realm from all future records."

Di Tian's voice rang out, filled with arrogance and supreme authority. He was domineering and showed no respect to the Golden Crow Race. This was the benefit of absolute strength.

Having become an Immortal Emperor, he feared nothing; the Golden Crow Race either submitted or died.

"Good."

The Golden Crow Clan Leader showed no anger or emotional fluctuation; he simply uttered a calm "okay."

Subsequently, within the Golden Crow clan.

Inside the main hall, the divine light in the eyes of the Golden Crow Clan Leader subsided.

"Revive our race's Supreme Emperor Artifact and go to the Heavenly Court."

The Golden Crow Clan Leader spoke, his voice calm, but the calmer he was, the more serious the matter seemed.

Inside the main hall.

Lu Changsheng appeared very calm. He didn't say a word about the whole thing and showed no emotion whatsoever.

But at that moment, outside the Golden Crow Clan, the voice of the Heavenly Court envoy continued to ring out.

"The second imperial edict: Lu Changsheng, come and hear it."

As soon as the voice rang out, all eyes of the Golden Crow Race turned to Lu Changsheng.

However, Lu Changsheng did pause for a moment after hearing the voice again, but he quickly regained his composure and continued to enjoy the food.

"Heavens above, I am the Lord of the Immortal Realm, Di Tian Emperor, Lu Changsheng. You are exceptionally talented and a peerless genius, but due to a momentary lapse in judgment, you defied the heavens. I should have suppressed you, extracted your Primordial Spirit, and placed it in the God Sea to be suppressed for millions of years, but considering that the heavens have the virtue of cherishing life."

"Today I bestow upon you unparalleled fortune. If you are willing to abandon darkness and embrace the light, and join the Heavenly Court, I am willing to share one-tenth of the celestial realm's fortune with you, and appoint you as the Sixth Heavenly Emperor, ruling a realm's Heavenly Court and sharing the world."

The voice of the celestial messenger rang out; this was the decree of Di Tian.

It was full of arrogance, seemingly trying to win over Lu Changsheng and give him an equal position, but in reality, every word was precious, and every sentence revealed a feeling of being a ruler and his subject.

However, the only point is that this decree is not so cruel, with no mention of being expelled from the register. Of course, Lu Changsheng knows that this is because of the Hong clan princess.

If it weren't for the Hong Clan princess, this decree would likely have included the line: "If no response is received within three days, you will be removed from the Immortal Realm."

Inside the main hall.

Lu Changsheng took a sip of wine, seemingly lost in thought.

However, the sound rang out again.

"Lord Changsheng, this is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. Today, the Heavenly Court's power is sweeping across everything, invincible in the universe. All six realms must submit to the Lord of the Heavenly Court. If Lord Changsheng agrees to be appointed the Sixth Heavenly Emperor, your future will be limitless. What are you hesitating for?"

When the Heavenly Court envoy spoke, he did not show any disrespect to Lu Changsheng. Putting aside the fact that Lu Changsheng had a very powerful background, just the fact that if Lu Changsheng really agreed, he would be his superior, so he dared not offend him.

Just then, Lu Changsheng got up.

He stood in the middle of the hall, his eyes looking straight ahead.

"Roll!"

The voice rang out, without any lengthy explanation, just a single word. "Get out."

The Heavenly Court envoy was struck as if by lightning, then transformed into a shooting star; upon closer inspection, he did indeed roll away.

This Di Tian is indeed ambitious. Everyone in the world knows that Princess Hong Ling is his sister, but no one expected that Di Tian would dare to say such a thing.

"Chieftain, shall we charge in?"

Just then, the powerful members of the Golden Crow Race came to their senses. They didn't know what Lu Changsheng was thinking, but they couldn't swallow their anger.

"The Heavenly Court has already laid Net of Heaven and Earth. They are deliberately provoking you all. If you go there now, something terrible will happen."

Lu Changsheng's voice suddenly rang out, startling all the powerful members of the Golden Crow Race.

They really didn't expect that the Heavenly Court was deliberately provoking them.

As soon as Lu Changsheng said this, all the powerful Golden Crow calmed down.

It wasn't that they weren't smart, but what happened made them lose all face, and they were consumed by anger.

First of all, the Golden Crow Prince was attacked and killed. If it weren't for Lu Changsheng's intervention, none of these princes would have survived.

Secondly, the Heavenly Court's attack has crossed the bottom line for the Golden Crow Race, yet they are willing to tolerate it. Part of the reason is that they don't want to break off relations, and part of the reason is that they hope the Heavenly Court will give them an explanation.

Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Court not only refused to provide an explanation, but also turned the tables, distorting the truth and making false accusations. How could the Golden Crow Race not be furious?

More importantly, Lu Changsheng was right there, humiliating the Golden Crow Race in front of outsiders, which only added fuel to the fire.

Even under these circumstances, the Golden Crow Clan Leader did not take immediate action. Instead, he asked for clarification, even if the Heavenly Court was willing to discuss the matter in detail.

Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Court had no intention of discussing the matter in detail. It was too powerful, so powerful that the Golden Crow Race had no choice but to take action, otherwise they would be crippled.

It is precisely because of all of the above that the Golden Crow Race had to take action.

However, upon hearing Lu Changsheng's words, the Golden Crow experts suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

"This! Something does seem a bit off."

The Golden Crow Crown Prince spoke, his brows furrowed as he carefully considered the ins and outs of the matter. To be fair, the Immortal Realm did indeed have some deliberate intentions.

It was as if they were deliberately trying to provoke the Golden Crow Race.

"If the Heavenly Court has indeed set up Net of Heaven and Earth can trap everything, then everything makes sense."

The Golden Crow Clan Leader was the first to understand; he wasn't stupid, and after calming down, he instantly saw through everything.

"They attacked and killed my sons to provoke conflict, and then used the imperial edict to humiliate my Golden Crow Race, so that I would use the Supreme Emperor Artifact of the Golden Crow Race to wipe us all out. What a clever plan."

The Golden Crow Clan Leader took a deep breath. He finally understood. Now that he thought about it, he was truly terrified. If Lu Changsheng hadn't reminded him, they would have really gone and attacked.

After all, this kind of hatred is simply intolerable.

"That doesn't seem right either. Even if the clan leader leads the people there, he will definitely leave some forces behind. If our clan's core strength isn't involved, even if they wipe us out, they won't gain anything."

Some powerful figures spoke up, arguing that some of these points were unreasonable.

Many powerful Golden Crow Race frowned at that moment.

That makes sense.

After all, no matter how deep the hatred, it's impossible to wipe out an entire clan; they would definitely leave some resources within the clan. Therefore, it's impossible for the other side to wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

However, at that moment, Lu Changsheng's voice rang out again.

"The Heavenly Court's target is not the Golden Crow Race, but something else entirely."

Lu Changsheng spoke, immediately causing the Golden Crow experts to frown.

Are there any others?

"Golden Crow Divine Bell!"

In an instant, many powerful figures spoke up, guessing what it was.

The Golden Crow Clan Leader's face also turned extremely ugly in an instant.

"They want to take away my Golden Crow Divine Bell."

The Golden Crow Clan Leader's face was even more grim than before.

It should be understood that the strongest foundation of the Golden Crow Race is the Golden Crow Divine Bell. Even if a powerful figure dies, a new powerful figure will emerge tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years later.

But if the Golden Crow Divine Bell is lost, it will be a catastrophic disaster.

"A brilliant plan, a brilliant plan, truly a brilliant plan."

The Golden Crow Clan Leader clenched his fists, filled with rage.

But anger does nothing.

The enemy had laid a trap long ago, waiting for them to take the bait. If Lu Changsheng hadn't suddenly appeared, the Golden Crow Race would probably have already headed to the Heavenly Court by now.

After all, given the current situation, the Golden Crow Prince is still alive, yet Lu Changsheng has already taken him down.

But if nine of the Golden Crow Princes died, the meaning would be different.

They've already gone there.

Being dead and not being dead are two completely different concepts.

"What should we do now?"

"Yes, clan leader, we can neither advance nor retreat. What should we do?"

"Chieftain, is there any way?"

The Golden Crow Race was in a state of utter distress.

Although they understood the other party's purpose, what could they do? Instead, they dared not go to the Heavenly Court.

At that time, cultivators from all six realms will laugh at the Golden Crow Race for being cowards.

The Golden Crow Clan Leader also frowned.

But in the end, the Golden Crow Clan Leader turned his gaze to Lu Changsheng.

"Heavenly Emperor Lu, my Golden Crow Race is willing to follow Heavenly Emperor to the death. If Heavenly Emperor are willing to fight against the Heavenly Court, from now on, the Golden Crow Race will Changsheng Heavenly Emperor."

At this moment, the Golden Crow Clan Leader could only place his hopes on Lu Changsheng, and even began to address him as Heavenly Emperor Lu.

Because only Lu Changsheng could rival Di Tian.

However, Lu Changsheng remained silent for a moment.

He needs the mark of the celestial realm.

But he really didn't want to establish a faction. He was used to being idle, and if he were to establish a faction, it would cause some trouble.

But after thinking about it, Lu Changsheng also understood a principle.

If I don't establish a force, I'm afraid I'll have a hard time obtaining the Heavenly Dao Mark of the Immortal Realm.

Each world's imprint requires specific conditions to be obtained.

One can obtain a mark in the Buddhist realm by making a great vow.

However, the Immortal Realm's Mark doesn't care whether you make grand ambitions or not. Whoever unifies the Immortal Realm and becomes its Lord of the Immortal Realm can take control of the Immortal Realm's Mark.

But it was at this moment that...

Lu Changsheng looked at the Golden Crow Clan Leader and said.

"Senior, may I have a look at the Golden Crow Divine Bell?"

Lu Changsheng spoke up and made this request.

The matter of establishing a religion can wait; it's not yet a matter of life and death.

However, Lu Changsheng wanted to find out more about the Chaos Bell first.

"Of course, Heavenly Emperor Lu, please come with me."

The Golden Crow Clan Leader spoke up and readily agreed.

After saying this, he took Lu Changsheng and left.
