Chapter 72: Taishang Laojun Descends to the Eastern Han World

With just a single syllable, order was forged and the rules were remade.

Without even seeing the person, this stretch of heaven and earth was suppressed.

Old Immortal Nanhua prided himself on his magical arts, having been undefeated for a hundred years, yet facing such an unknown existence.

He only felt his soul trembling.

It seemed to be an existence from a higher dimension; just a casual glance caused him to kneel down directly.

Zhang Jiao, who possessed the Yellow Heaven Destiny, was merely a chess piece chosen by him.

How could Zhang Jiao possibly make contact with such a powerful and majestic existence?

Heavenly Emperor?

Who is the Heavenly Emperor?

Does such an existence still exist in this current era?

In the remaining ancient historical records, there are indeed fragments of information about the ancient era.

In the ancient era, there were all kinds of powerful cultivators.

But it is rumored that the ancient Great Power Zhuanxu cut off the connection between heaven and earth, and since then, the Human Realm has entered the End of Dharma Era.

By now, it is too difficult to cultivate.

It is precisely because of this that Old Immortal Nanhua, Yu Ji, and Zuo Ci manipulate the trends of the world, using National Fortune to cultivate.

They are very clear that those more powerful existences no longer exist in this world.

Old Immortal Nanhua and the other two are the strongest in the Human Realm.

But what is going on with this Heavenly Emperor?

Could it be a god from the past?

Impossible?

The gods of the past have long since died.

Old Immortal Nanhua does not know the answer; the only thing he knows is awe.

In the Great Primordial World, Qin Hao also received Zhang Jiao's request.

【Ding-dong! Detected a world codenamed Eastern Han Dynasty, where Zhang Jiao is leading the Taiping Sect to join the Heavenly Court. Do you grant permission?】

"Granted."

【Ding-dong! Zhang Jiao has led the Taiping Sect to join the Heavenly Court. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining two million Qi Luck.】

【Ding-dong! Qi Luck critical hit increased tenfold. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining twenty million Qi Luck.】

The world where Zhang Jiao resides is an End of Dharma Era, but it was once a world where Daoist arts flourished.

Therefore, the potential of this world is relatively huge.

That is why a considerable amount of Qi Luck was obtained.

After the Qi Luck critical hit multiplier, twenty million Qi Luck was obtained.

Twenty million Qi Luck is enough for him to deduce several Great Daos and fully master them.

Qin Hao summoned Taishang Laojun and instructed him, "There is a small world in the lower realm where the Taiping Sect Leader, Zhang Jiao, wishes to join the Heavenly Court. You shall make a trip there."

"Lower realm? Other worlds?"

Taishang Laojun could not help but exclaim, "Your Majesty, are you speaking of other worlds?"

Qin Hao did not answer Taishang Laojun, but drafted a Heavenly Emperor Decree and had Taishang Laojun carry it to descend into the Eastern Han World where Zhang Jiao is located.

There is a connection between Taishang Laojun and Taiqing Laozi; this was a probe by Qin Hao.

Now, Qin Hao's strength is already such that he does not fear the various Saints of this world.

Even Taiqing Laozi, who is honored as the head of the Three Pure Ones, is likewise no match for the Heavenly Emperor.

Of course, the various Heavenly Dao Saints, and even Dao Ancestor Hongjun, have never been enemies of the Heavenly Emperor.

Under the Immeasurable Tribulation, the various Saints scheme against one another, calculating back and forth.

Why is this?

Isn't it actually just because they are too idle?

In the Great Primordial World, the various Heavenly Dao Saints pursue the Great Dao, pursuing a realm beyond that of a Saint.

But this path is almost completely blocked.

Heavenly Dao Saint, Heavenly Dao Saint; Heavenly Dao comes first, Saint comes second.

When Dao Ancestor Hongjun lectured in the Purple Heaven Palace, he spoke of three methods to become a Saint.

And most Heavenly Dao Saints followed the method of Slicing the Three Corpses to attain the Dao.

However, they had not fully completed the Slicing of the Three Corpses before they attained the Dao and became Saints.

The Great Dao retreated, the Heavenly Dao had not yet manifested, and the Heavenly Dao needed the Heavenly Dao Saints to help it complete the rules of heaven and earth.

So, to a certain extent, it opened a back door for the Heavenly Dao Saints.

It is precisely because of this that most Heavenly Dao Saints attained the Dao and became Saints by borrowing Human Dao Fortune and then merging with the Grand Primordial Purple Vapor.

Therefore, the Saints they attained are Heavenly Dao Saints.

Heavenly Dao Saint, Heavenly Dao comes first, Saint comes second.

And in the Great Primordial World, Dao Ancestor Hongjun merged his Dao with heaven and earth; the Heavenly Dao is Hongjun.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun alone blocked the path forward for all Heavenly Dao Saints.

So, throughout the long years, the various Saints have wanted to break through to a realm beyond that of a Saint, but they have found no way to do so.

It is precisely because of this that the various Saints have been almost desperate throughout the long years.

So, isn't that why they started scheming, calculating against each other, and fighting internally?

In Qin Hao's view, all of this boils down to the fact that the cake was not made big enough.

Within the Great Primordial World, the cake is only so big; if the Three Pure Ones take more, the Western Two Sages take less.

If the Heavenly Dao Sages take more, Dao Ancestor Hongjun takes less.

Therefore, is it not true that the Heavenly Dao Sages, as well as Dao Ancestor Hongjun, are all calculating against one another?

Yet what Qin Hao is doing now is making the cake bigger.

Once the Sages see the splendor of the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, will they still calculate against one another?

Thus, the Heavenly Dao Sages have never been Qin Hao's enemies, and neither, in fact, is Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Qin Hao's goal is to unite all forces that can be united and establish a broad Primordial alliance for external conquest.

And the reason it was not directly revealed before is simply because.

What Qin Hao needs is to occupy the leading position within this alliance.

The Saints may share the cake with him, but they must join the Heavenly Court and obey the orders of the Heavenly Court.

And this time, revealing the plane of the world where Zhang Jiao is located to Taishang Laojun.

Was Qin Hao's first test of the Saint Taiqing Laozi.

As one of the Three Corpses of Taiqing Laozi, there must certainly be a connection between Taishang Laojun and Taiqing Laozi.

If Taiqing Laozi wishes to spread the Dao, he may go anywhere within these Heavens and Myriad Worlds.

Among the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, there are too many worlds that need Taoism.

The Taiping Sect established by Zhang Jiao is, in reality, also Taoism.

Holding the Heavenly Emperor Decree, Taishang Laojun used the World Coordinate on the Heavenly Emperor Decree to locate the Eastern Han World.

Crossing through the Chaos and Primordial Mist, Taishang Laojun still felt a sense of trance.

This cannot be blamed on Taishang Laojun; whether it was Taibai Jinxing or Yang Jian, they were all the same when they first descended into other worlds.

After all, for the living beings of Honghuang, the Heavens and Myriad Worlds have always existed only in legends.

The Saints did not discover the coordinates of other worlds, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not discover them either.

Yet, it just so happened that the Heavenly Emperor discovered them.

In fact, this is also a way for every world in the Heavens and Myriad Worlds to protect itself.

The more powerful a world is, the harder it is for it to discover other worlds.

This is a form of protection for other, weaker worlds.

Otherwise, when a powerful world meets a weak one, it is usually the weak world that faces Destruction.

Therefore, wanting to discover the coordinates of other worlds depends more on a kind of mysterious and elusive Qi Luck.

Filled with shock, Taishang Laojun held the Heavenly Emperor Decree and projected his dharma body to appear above Luoyang City.

Regardless of anything else, he has now joined the Heavenly Court, and the most important thing is to handle the Heavenly Emperor's errand well.

However, at this moment, Taishang Laojun already had an idea in his heart.

Following the Heavenly Emperor, there is much that can be accomplished.

It would be better to tell the Saint Taiqing Laozi to simply surrender to the Heavenly Emperor.

Of course, all of this must wait until he returns.

"This poor Daoist is the Heavenly Court envoy, Taishang Laojun."

Taishang Laojun held the Heavenly Emperor Decree and spoke, "Where is the Taiping Sect Leader, Zhang Jiao?"
