The Dynasty Forum exploded.
Lin Han's battle to kill the Heavenly King in the sky above the imperial capital was recorded by players and posted on the forum. In just five minutes, it topped the forum's hot discussion list and became a hit.
The players were shocked and dropped their jaws.
The version had just been updated, and Lin Han took action to kill the King of Heaven who announced the decree from the lower realm. He was so brave and terrifying.
"Isn't Lin Han too arrogant? The king kills people just because he says so."
"I think he's crazy."
"It's not really killing. He used the Conferred God List to take away Mo Liqing's soul."
"That's ridiculous! Since the server was launched, I've never been impressed by anyone. But now, I'm completely impressed by Lin Han's ability to kill the Heavenly King."
"There's nothing wrong with what Lin Han said. He was conferred the title of Human Emperor, and his status is on the same level as the Jade Emperor. On what basis does the Heavenly Court have the power to issue an order to the Great Xia Empire?"
"I used to think Lin Han was just talking, but I didn't expect him to be serious about it."
"Is he really preparing to fight against the immortal gods now?"
"I admire his disrespectful attitude. The Calamity should have been a killing calamity for the gods, but they're trying to seize the human race's luck, avoid the killing calamity, and shift the cause and effect. Why?"
On the forum, the discussion about Lin Han's killing of the Heavenly King and the catastrophe reached a whole new level.
Lin Han killed a king, which was almost a big win at the beginning.
Mo Liqing is the Heavenly King who is appointed by the Heavenly Court as the Virtuous King of Growth and Dhritarashtra, and is also one of the four great Heavenly Kings in Buddhism. Lin Han has offended the two most powerful forces in the Heavenly Court.
All the players were waiting for the reaction from Heaven and Buddhism, looking like they were just watching a show.
…
The shock felt by the people of Daxia was no less than the players' reaction.
After hearing that Lin Han killed a Heavenly King and took away his soul, the people of Daxia were so shocked that they were speechless for a long time.
If this news had not been reported by Daxia News and Daxia Daily, they would have regarded it as a rumor.
Before they could recover from the shock, Daxia News and Daxia Daily recorded exactly what Lin Han said after he killed Mo Liqing and informed everyone.
"My people, stand up, straighten your backs and knees. We, the people of Great Xia, only kneel to our teachers and parents, the heroic spirits who protect our country. We do not respect heaven and earth, nor do we kneel to gods and Buddhas..."
When this news spread, many people were immediately excited.
Originally, they were worried that Lin Han would be disrespectful to the gods and immortals, which would cause the Great Xia Empire to suffer. After hearing what Lin Han said, their blood was immediately aroused.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, people suffered terribly, plagues were rampant, and there were corpses of starving people everywhere. People had to eat their own children. That doomsday scene is still vivid in our minds. At that time, no gods came to help them.
In the last days of the Dharma era on earth, spiritual energy dissipated and cultivation was impossible. When the people were weak, no immortals or gods came to help them.
When they were invaded by foreign enemies, forced to leave their homes and slaughtered, there were no immortals or gods to help them.
The common people suffered from oppression by the aristocratic families, could not study, had no land, and had no gods to help them. They cried to the sky and the earth, but no one answered.
Why should we offer incense and kneel down to worship these gods now that Daxia is strong and its people are healthy and prosperous?
The prosperity of Daxia today was built layer by layer with the blood and flesh of Daxia’s soldiers, and it was not a gift from immortals, gods, or heaven.
"The Emperor led his soldiers to fight all over the world, risking their lives to destroy the corrupt dynasties and foreign barbarians. This was so that I could stand tall and live in this world, not to kneel down and worship the gods and offer incense."
"That's right. Those immortals and gods are just stronger cultivators. One day, we can also cultivate to their level. Why should we kneel to them? When we are stronger than them, let them kneel to us."
"The Emperor fought for so many years and established the Great Xia. The first thing he did upon ascending the throne was to abolish the kneeling ceremony. The Emperor doesn't even let us kneel, so why should we kneel to immortals and gods who have done us no favors and have no connection with us? Who are they?"
"Yes, a real man born between heaven and earth, how can I kneel down to them? He is not my father."
"As long as you are brave enough, fairies will take maternity leave. So what if you are a fairy? So what if you are a god?"
"Who are immortals and gods? You are willing to risk your life to pull them down from the altar."
"Do human cultivators have any kind of race?"
The people of Daxia were outraged.
As various rumors spread, Daxia News and Daxia Daily revealed the inside story of the Battle of Zhuolu and the Battle of Conferred Gods based on Lin Han's interview. The immortals and gods intervened in the human world and seized the destiny of humanity, causing the human spiritual power to collapse and the destiny to be lost.
The fact that the gods and immortals were plotting and calculating the fortunes of the human world was made public with the spread of Daxia News and Daxia Daily.
As the news spread, the public reaction was even more horrified. They lost their last bit of reverence for the gods and began to curse.
"We, as cultivators, must protect our human race and go against the will of Heaven. If gods stand in our way, we will kill them. If Buddhas stand in our way, we will kill them."
A common saying spread throughout the Great Xia Empire.
…
Grand Council.
The generals sat upright, each with an extremely serious expression on their face.
Ever since Lin Han killed the Heavenly King, they knew who their future enemy would be, and the two sides were irreconcilable. There would be pressure in the future, but it would also give them an extremely powerful motivation.
What about God? What about Buddha?
They saw with their own eyes the emperor killing the king of heaven and the immortals and gods having blood strips. They were also afraid of death and had fear.
Now in the Military Affairs Council, everyone held their breath, as if they had returned to the time when they followed Lin Han to fight all over the world.
When Lin Han entered the Grand Council, all the generals stood up.
"Everyone sit down."
Lin Han's calm words eased the oppressive atmosphere in the Grand Council.
"I am in the imperial capital, slaying the Heavenly King to tell the world that we humans are equal to the immortals and gods. Immortals and gods have bloodlines, feel fear, and can die. They have no right to meddle in the affairs of the human world."
The generals were silent, their hearts surging.
