Gaining Heavenly Court, Di Jun and Taiyi Arrive!

Taishang trembled slightly at the thought.

If it were truly so, even he would be tempted to join the Immortal Court, which had a bright future, let alone other powerful beings.

And if it wasn't intentional scheming, then East King Duke was equally unfathomable, able to seize every opportunity and turn crises into opportunities; he could not be underestimated.

Regardless of the outcome, he had made up his mind not to get entangled in any karma with East King Duke, otherwise, it would definitely be others who suffered.

Zhunti, Jieyin, Nuwa, Zhenyuanzi, and others were equally shocked at this moment.

In fact, many powerful beings, just as Taishang had guessed, were very tempted by the treatment offered by the Immortal Court. For a time, many streaks of rainbow light flashed across the sky of the Great Desolation, heading in the direction of the Immortal Court.

Of course, happiness is always relative.

As everyone headed towards the Immortal Court, a sky full of killing intent descended upon it first.

"East King Duke!"

"How dare you!"

Outside the Heavenly Court, an extremely powerful aura was constantly rising.

Scorching and violent, like the supreme Great Sun radiating holy brilliance, two figures in imperial robes emerged from the divine light.

Di Jun, Taiyi.

They brought endless light and heat to heaven and earth, their terrifying heat distorting the void, as if two suns had appeared, causing all things to wail and the ground to crack from the heat.

However, Di Jun and Taiyi didn't care. Their cold eyes were fixed on East King Duke.

"Hand over the opportunity, and I will spare your life!"

Taiyi stepped forward, the Eastern Emperor Bell appearing in his hand. Endless Great Dao laws intertwined around it, but were bound by an invisible force, transforming into tangible runes and symbols. With a slight tremor, the void began to collapse, constantly perishing and regenerating.

Di Jun's Hetu Luoshu appeared, exuding profound energy. Just a glance would plunge one into endless illusion, blinding the true spirit and causing them to live countless lifetimes as mortals, with millions of years passing in an instant.

The two unleashed their auras together, making all things in heaven and earth tremble.

They were even more furious. First, he snatched the Heavenly Emperor position from them, then killed their two Demon Gods, and now he had stolen their great opportunity.

Looking at the Heavenly Court, they had a strong feeling that with this item, they would surely rule the Great Desolation and become the overlord of the world.

At this moment, countless powerful beings subconsciously slowed their steps.

The faces of the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and others also showed solemn expressions.

The combined strength of Di Jun and Taiyi represented almost the strongest combat power of the era, and only a handful of people could resist them.

Their imposing manner suggested that a great battle could break out at any moment.

"This is absurd! Opportunities in the world belong to those who are virtuous. Not to mention that I obtained this opportunity first, even if I hadn't, I am the Heavenly Emperor, in charge of all order in the world. This opportunity rightfully belongs to me!"

East King Duke's aura scattered, the starry sky swayed, and the Weak Water churned as if it would drown the mortal world.

Facing the confrontation, he was not at all at a disadvantage.

"Scoundrel, the Heavenly Court was a bestowed opportunity by the Heavenly Dao, and it has great karma with our Heavenly Court. How can you just take it away as you please?!"

Di Jun's Hetu Luoshu hovered above his head, the scrolls constantly flipping with a rustling sound.

The karma threads of the Heavenly Dao manifested externally. A seven-colored illusory long thread passed through the Heavenly Court and the bodies of Di Jun and the others.

This was karma. All sentient beings generated karma, and the Hetu Luoshu could materialize these karmic threads.

"East King Duke, the karma is here. What else do you have to say?!"

Taiyi roared and questioned.

"In front of me, what karma is there?"

East King Duke pointed his fingers together like a sword, Great Dao laws swirling around his fingertips, emitting a mysterious aura.

Then, he casually slashed towards the front of the Heavenly Court. A muffled sound rang out, and the seven-colored karma thread was directly severed into two pieces.

The Heavenly Court should indeed have been discovered first by Di Jun and the others, and then through it, they received the recognition of the Heavenly Dao, and the Demon Court also gained the luck of the Heavenly Dao.

But it was different now. Since I'm here, it's mine.

Even if there was karma, it would be directly severed. There was nothing more to say.

This was not the time when he had just transmigrated. He was eager to test the strength of Di Jun and Taiyi and add some excitement to the establishment of the Immortal Court.

"You court death!"

Di Jun had originally wanted to resolve the matter peacefully. After all, besides East King Duke, they still had enemies like the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and even Kunpeng was eyeing their position.

But he didn't expect East King Duke to be so disrespectful, so he would not hesitate.

"Hahaha, Eldest Brother, this is exactly how it should be."

The Eastern Emperor Bell resounded through the heavens, and Taiyi also burst into laughter.

East King Duke held the Exalted Position of Heavenly Emperor. They could usually discipline and heavily injure him, but if they were to directly kill him, they might suffer a backlash from the Heavenly Dao's luck.

But it was different now. They were fighting for an opportunity, and East King Duke had even acted to sever the Heavenly Dao's karma. Such defiance of the Heavenly Dao meant that no one would say anything even if they killed him here today!

"Clang!"

The resonant chime of a bell rang out, unleashing power sufficient to destroy the universe. Ordinary Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals would die upon contact.

Di Jun did not stop either. The River Chart and Luo Book flashed with incomparably brilliant radiance, containing supreme Dao principles.

The star river swayed, and heaven and earth trembled.

Boundless light and heat erupted from the two figures, causing countless beings to suffer from the intense heat and flee in panic.

"They've both developed killing intent!"

"Di Jun and Taiyi are too strong, like the Sun Star manifesting. Just a sliver of their aura suppresses all heavens. Is this the might of a Quasi-Saint?"

"East King Duke is merely at the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, yet he dares to provoke two Quasi-Saints at once. He's simply courting death."

"What a shame. If only he had waited until the Immortal Court was established, with countless powerful experts as his backing, even Di Jun and the other wouldn't dare to attack so readily. Now, they intend to seize this opportunity to eliminate East King Duke!"

"East King Duke miscalculated!"

Countless beings looked up in terror, while the powerful experts also began to discuss amongst themselves.

In the West, Zhunti sat beneath the Bodhi tree, smiling quite happily.

No matter who won or lost between the two sides, it would ultimately be a loss for the East. Weakening their Eastern strength would only benefit the West.

Of course, he was also certain in his heart that East King Duke would lose without a doubt.

How could he lose when it was two against one?

"Dong Hua..."

West Queen Mother's dignified and beautiful face was also filled with worry. She murmured softly, afraid of disturbing his focus and causing him to lose.

She could only anxiously await the outcome of their duel. However, she secretly resolved that if East King Duke failed, she would save him from beneath the Eastern Emperor Bell, even if it meant sacrificing the Kunlun Mirror.

"Kill!"

Taiyi, carrying the Eastern Emperor Bell, descended from the sky. Endless divine chains of order pierced through the void, and time and space seemed to wither under the bell's chime.

Di Jun summoned all his Dao and Dharma. The starry sky above instantly changed its scenery.

The sun, moon, and stars formed an unparalleled killing formation, enveloping East King Duke. Heavenly fire then ignited, as if to refine him alive along with the surrounding heaven and earth.

"Hmph!"

East King Duke held the Heavenly Emperor Seal above his head, stood upon the Creation White Lotus, and wielded the Sky Measuring Ruler, positioned across the Heavenly Court.
