Reestablishing the Heavenly Court
The Sages benefited and, overjoyed, began to ask Qing Xuanzi how to deal with the Heavenly Dao.
"Junior brother, how should we cooperate with you?" Laozi was in a very good mood. Ever since Qing Xuanzi appeared, his cultivation level had started to rise sharply. This junior brother was indeed a lucky star.
Besides, is the Heavenly Dao, Great Dao Supreme Saint, really that powerful?
Qing Xuanzi had dealt with them before, and he even drove one away during the Grand Ultimate.
It's estimated that little bit of intelligence remains by now.
"Senior brother, there's no rush. Let's take it slow. I don't think we can let him have it too easy. Although I can't use the Great Curse because of the problem with the Heavenly Dao Source, it's not like I only know this one supernatural power."
Qing Xuanzi seemed completely unconcerned; he was genuinely unafraid.
Although his cultivation level appeared to be only at the Mixed Origin Limitless, he could still see the power of cultivating Kalpa Qi.
No wonder that ancient world completely abandoned chaos and spiritual energy.
However, this is something I should be wary of, and I must never completely lead the Primordial World to that kind of world in the future.
"Oh, do you have any other good ideas?" Tongtian asked curiously. He had great faith in Qing Xuanzi's methods, as he could always come up with a variety of supernatural abilities and achieve unexpected success.
"Hehe, actually he should be considered an evil spirit, but a more powerful one."
"The same old trick?"
"No, although he is considered an evil spirit, his cultivation level is too high, and the previous methods were useless against him."
Seeing that everyone was waiting for his solution, Qing Xuanzi stopped being mysterious and continued:
"Actually, it's very simple, we do it like this..."
Qing Xuanzi revealed his idea, and the Sages secretly exclaimed how brilliant it was.
This method was impossible before, but now it's different. Qing Xuanzi's cultivation level is not afraid of the Heavenly Dao at all.
Therefore, the success rate of this plan is extremely high.
Most importantly: it will not damage the Primordial World at all.
"Alright, let's do it this way. I'll move Jade Capital Mountain to Shouyang Mountain. Fortunately, it was integrated with the Creation Jade Plate Fragment before, so it should be able to withstand our fortune."
After hearing Qing Xuanzi's plan, Hongjun made the decision almost without hesitation.
Hongjun immediately left the small world, bringing Haotian and Yaochi with him as well.
Shouyang Mountain suddenly expanded to more than twice its original size; this was because Hongjun had moved Jade Capital Mountain here.
Hongjun built a Dao Ancestor Palace on Shouyang Mountain.
"Haotian, this is the spiritual treasure that Qing Xuanzi gave you before. Set it up again, and the Heavenly Court should open for business."
Hongjun glanced at Haotian and Yaochi below and said calmly.
"Master, can the Heavenly Court really be rebuilt?" Haotian asked with some doubt. Although he did not know the inside story, he had seen the Destiny Demon God in the small world.
It seems he was also expelled from the Heavenly Dao Space. With such a huge change, isn't he afraid of being targeted by the Heavenly Dao if he re-establishes the Heavenly Court?
Hongjun, of course, knew Haotian's worries, and still calmly said:
"It's alright. With Qing Xuanzi and us protecting you, you can go ahead and establish the Heavenly Court."
This time, the Three Teachings have made it clear that they will send a large number of disciples to the Heavenly Court to assist you.
"Remember very well who appointed you as the Lord of the Heavenly Court. Alright, you may leave now."
Haotian walked out of the Dao Ancestor Palace with a look of disbelief, not because he didn't believe Hongjun.
This is just too fantastical. Even the Heavenly Dao has changed several times. How can his Heavenly Court still stand?
Could it be that I've become their pawn?
Haotian silently arrived at the original location of the Heavenly Court, and he began to suspect that he had become cannon fodder.
"Sigh, "Haotian sighed softly, deciding not to think about it anymore, since things would turn out exactly as he suspected.
He had no choice but to accept his fate, hoping that Hongjun would remember his contributions and be able to rescue him from reincarnation someday.
"The Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Venerable decree: Haotian has great fortune and great opportunity, and should rebuild the Heavenly Court."
The decree given to him by Hongjun was only one sentence, without any unnecessary words, which was the intention to re-establish the Heavenly Court.
As Haotian unfurled the spiritual treasure, countless buildings appeared and disappeared amidst the swirling clouds and mist, creating a magnificent celestial scene.
Just two days after the re-establishment of the Heavenly Court was announced, a large wave of Three Sects Disciples arrived at the Heavenly Court.
In the main hall of the Heavenly Court, Haotian looked at the crowd of Three Sects Disciples below and couldn't help but waver in his doubts.
Wasn't the Dao Ancestor using himself as cannon fodder?
Many of those below are core disciples of the Three Teachings.
For example, Taiyi Zhenren and Zhao Gongming are both Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.
The Three Teachings are not yet so wealthy; even the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal are used as cannon fodder.
Thinking of this, Haotian cheered up.
"My beloved ministers, the Heavenly Court has just been established, and I will certainly make good use of you all."
"Thank you, Heavenly Emperor."
"..."
Haotian immediately began the process of bestowing titles, Four Royals and Eight Divisions, and various Heavenly Gods and Fiend Stars.
Suddenly, the Heavenly Court stood tall and imposing.
The central pillar of the Heavenly Court Palace visibly became illusory.
This Heavenly Pillar of heaven is the pillar of the Heavenly Court's fortune. Once the fortune is condensed, it will become ethereal and hide in the void.
Upon seeing this, Haotian was overjoyed: Hehe, although I, the Heavenly Emperor, am not yet Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, I do have some under my command.
Just as Haotian was feeling triumphant, a loud bang suddenly erupted outside the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Haotian was nearly scared to death, and cried out in panic, "Quickly, go and see what's going on?"
"As you command." The general guarding the Southern Heavenly Gate was a third-generation disciple of the Interception Sect, and his cultivation level was only that of Heavenly Immortal.
The Heavenly Court is fortunate to have so many disciples of the Interception Sect; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to maintain such a complete Heavenly Court.
"Report! It was Heavenly Punishment that cleaved the Southern Heavenly Gate, but Heavenly Venerable Qing Xuanzi has already appeared."
Haotian breathed a sigh of relief. Good heavens, divine punishment! Sure enough, he, the Lord of the Heavenly Court, had not been recognized by the Heavenly Dao.
It's ridiculous! Not only does the Heavenly Court fail to gain the approval of the Heavenly Dao, but it also tries to undermine it.
Outside the Southern Heavenly Gate, Qing Xuanzi looked at the dark clouds overhead with disdain and casually waved his hand.
The dark cloud, like a well-behaved child, darted into Qing Xuanzi's brow and disappeared.
After the dark clouds dispersed, one of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment was bewildered, blinking its eyes: Where is my Heavenly Punishment?
Did you slip away?
Upon closer inspection, I realized it was the formidable Qing Xuanzi. I can't afford to offend him. Time to make my escape.
Just as the Eye of Heavenly Punishment was about to slip away, Qing Xuanzi stopped it. "Wait a minute, you can come and go as you please, did you ask me first?"
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment cried, "Brother, I am the Eye of Heavenly Punishment, under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao sent me here, what can I do? I am also helpless, alright."
"It's okay, your older brother will be here soon, and we'll pack together then."
Big brother? Do I have a big brother? The Eye of Heavenly Punishment was confused.
"Hehe, they're here." Qing Xuanzi smiled as he looked at the distance.
The word "divine punishment" immediately struck me: Wow, Heavenly Tribulation, yeah, that's right, bro.
