Chapter 498

Zombie World.

Heavenly Court.

"Did I see that correctly? That mysterious powerhouse actually snatched Taibai Jinxing away?"

"Taibai Jinxing is the Emperor's confidant; this is something all factions know. How dare he?"

"Is this a provocation against our Heavenly Court?"

"Look at the items that mysterious powerhouse brought out from the Great Leiyin Temple, and you will understand."

"That golden lotus throne should be the Tathagata Buddha's seat, and that person who was also sealed should be the Tathagata Buddha's direct disciple, Venerable Kasyapa."

"Who exactly are they to dare snatch a Heavenly Court envoy in public? This is equivalent to declaring war on the Heavenly Court."

"They didn't just snatch the Heavenly Court's envoy; they even snatched the Heaven's envoy, the envoy from Mount Olympus, and the envoy from Mecca. This is going to offend all the top factions."

The Jade Emperor, the Three Pure Ones, the Four Heavenly Masters, and other high officials of the Heavenly Court all frowned, deeply puzzled.

Dozens of strange powerhouses comparable to Bodhisattvas and Buddhas had suddenly appeared.

They were even able to raid Mount Ling and retreat unscathed.

Yet, they didn't recognize a single one of them.

This was truly too bizarre!

Too inconceivable.

For any divine faction, the more powerful the existence, the more illustrious their reputation.

If they had never been heard of in any divine faction, no matter how ancient they were, their strength could not be that great.

Power of Faith!

Merit!

Luck!

These are the powers that can enhance the strength of powerful deities, and they are hard to obtain.

Without sufficient fame, it is impossible to obtain much at all.

"Could it be that they are using some transformation ability, and this is not their true appearance?"

"The Tathagata Buddha has cultivated the Wisdom Eye, the Jade Emperor has the Haotian Mirror, and God has the Eye of God."

"How could any transformation ability deceive them?"

"If not for that possibility, how could so many powerhouses suddenly appear?"

"No powerful evil cult has risen in the human realm either!"

"Could it be some mysterious faction from the deep sea?"

Heaven, Mount Olympus, and other factions were both angry and deeply puzzled.

There were too many anomalies!

Too many things that didn't make sense!

However, the Heavenly Court, Heaven, Mount Olympus, and other factions did not act rashly.

Since this mysterious faction had already emerged, finding out their origins was only a matter of time.

The most important thing was that Li Shimin, Daoist Master Daoxuan, and their group appeared to be very powerful in their eyes.

If they started a war rashly, they would be the ones to suffer losses.

Once they discovered the background of this suddenly emerged mysterious faction, they could unite and slowly deal with them.

At the same time, they could force out how this mysterious faction managed to cultivate so many powerhouses without them noticing.

If they also mastered the mysterious faction's method of becoming stronger, could they also secretly cultivate a large number of powerhouses?

If they could really do that, they could secretly cultivate a powerful force unknown to others.

Some things unsuitable for the public eye could then be done by this secret force.

For example, slaughtering factions supported by other deities within their own ruled territories.

At necessary moments, they could even wipe out some divine factions.

"It's impossible that they reached their current realm without relying on the power of faith, merit, and other special energies, right?"

The Jade Emperor, the Three Pure Ones, God, and other top-tier powerhouses of the Zombie World vaguely sensed something different and felt a chill in their hearts.

They did not sense the power of faith in Li Shimin or Daoist Master Daoxuan.

If they reached their current realm relying only on luck and merit, how vast would that luck and massive amount of merit need to be?

Especially in Li Shimin, they sensed a surging, sea-like powerful Qi and blood, and an invincible, powerful will; he didn't look like a cultivator at all.

"They all seem to be flying toward Dongying."

The Jade Emperor, Tathagata Buddha, the Three Pure Ones, God, and other supreme deities all used various means to investigate the movements of Li Shimin, Daoist Master Daoxuan, and their group.

Upon seeing the gathering point of Li Shimin, Daoist Master Daoxuan, and the others, they were somewhat puzzled.

"Is there some secret hidden in Dongying?"

The Jade Emperor, the Three Pure Ones, God, and other supreme deities all exerted their full power to operate their magic treasures for monitoring the world, constantly locking onto the whereabouts of Li Shimin, Daoist Master Daoxuan, and the others.

"Do not approach me yet!"

After Li Shimin flew to Dongying, he discovered Maoshan Lin Jiu, who had transformed into an old man and was approaching him; he bypassed him directly and reminded him via voice transmission.

As a Divine Realm martial artist, although Li Shimin's magical means were not as good as those of cultivation powerhouses.

However, his martial artist instinct was able to help him detect the existence of danger.

He could detect that someone was secretly spying on his movements.
