"When that day comes, people's opinions won't matter anymore," Cao Ya said with a smile.
The fact that he dared to do that shows that he was confident he could withstand attacks from all sides!
Including reclusive bigwigs!
"Hey, I never expected that there would be three peerless divine weapons in just the Southern Wilderness." Meng Qi laughed. He held the Overlord Blade in his hand, while Qi Zhengyan wore the Demon Emperor Claw on his right hand, and his senior uncle Xuan Jie controlled the Reincarnation Seal.
It seems that the end of the world is approaching. Such divine objects rarely appeared in the past tens of thousands of years, and there were only one or two occasionally. Unlike now, in addition to the three peerless artifacts of the other shore present, there are also the Human Emperor Sword, the Demon Saint Spear, the Heavenly Punishment Axe, and the Time Blade in the Southern Wilderness. If you include the Nether Sea Sword and the Investiture of the Gods, there are even more!
These peerless weapons appear as if they're free!
The atmosphere of impending doom is growing stronger and stronger, and people all over the world, more or less, have heard about it.
However, most ordinary people think that it has nothing to do with them.
With such short lifespans, will they live long enough for the true arrival of the end times?
"I promised Daoist Lu Ya that I would complete his mission. For each mission I complete, he will rescue Daoist Chonghe and the others as I command," Meng Qi suddenly said, changing the subject.
"Although it's like dealing with a tiger for its skin, it's a last resort. Be careful," Qi Zhengyan said.
Unexpectedly, even though I helped rescue Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu, and Zhao Heng, Meng Qi ultimately made a deal with Lu Ya because of other people...
Cao Ya's eyes flickered.
"I'm planning a trip to the Nine Heavens to explore the Jade Pool. Uncle-Master Xuanjie, Senior Brother Qi, would you like to come with me? Heh, if we join forces, we're sure to reap great rewards! Even if there are any remaining dangers after the Heavenly Court's fall, we can easily overcome them with our three peerless divine weapons!" Meng Qi invited.
Lu Ya Daojun's first task was to go to Yaochi, one of the top three levels of the Nine Heavens.
The Realm of Truth is the core of all the heavens and myriad realms. In the ancient times before the world changed, there were nine heavens above the earth and nine netherworlds below.
The Heavenly Court occupies the Nine Heavens, rules over all the heavens and myriad realms, and commands all living beings, few of whom dare disobey!
Within the Nine Netherworlds, demons gather in droves, relying on the unique characteristics of the Nine Netherworlds to fight against the powerful figures of the Heavenly Court, dominating one side, spreading the ideas of evil and heretical sects, and polluting other realms.
With the fall of the Heavenly Court, the world changed drastically, many Great Daos were damaged, the Nine Heavens were broken, and the Nine Netherworlds disappeared. In the present real world, only the earth remains, but many regions are missing.
“I’m not going. There’s nothing I need in the Nine Heavens—well, actually, there’s nothing I need right now.” Cao Ya shook his head and said meaningfully, “Jade Pool is the second level of the Nine Heavens, one of the top three levels. In the ancient and prehistoric times of this era, when the Heavenly Court dominated all the heavens and myriad worlds, that place was the territory of that being.”
"Do you remember which deity's territory Yaochi belonged to in mythology?" Cao Ya gave Meng Qi a meaningful look.
Meng Qi was stern and awe-inspiring.
He knew who the "that being" his senior brother Xuanjie was referring to was.
Golden Emperor!
One of the Five Emperors of the Heavenly Court, he is known as one of the Five Emperors of the Five Directions, along with the Fire Emperor Feng Xi, the Green Emperor Tai Hao, and the Black Emperor Zhen Wu. In the past, he was second only to the Heavenly Emperor who ascended to the other shore, stepped on the passage of time, and dominated an era!
Before his betrayal, Thor was the Heavenly Emperor's confidant and the Heavenly Court's top general, and he was also very popular, making him the number two figure in the Heavenly Court.
Emperors like the Golden Emperor, Fire Emperor, Azure Emperor, and Black Emperor are more like regional lords. They acknowledge the Heavenly Emperor as the legitimate ruler, but they possess strong independence and are not subjects of the Heavenly Emperor.
The Five Emperors of the Five Directions: the Heavenly Emperor is the One Who Reaches the Other Shore; the Fire Emperor Feng Xi has later ascended to the Other Shore and become a Demon Saint; the Azure Emperor and the Black Emperor have disappeared and their whereabouts are unknown.
The Golden Emperor, however, rarely roamed the world during the transition from the ancient to the medieval period. Later, she disappeared completely, and it is said that she died of old age before the era of demonic chaos or the reign of the human emperor.
Meng Qi originally thought so too, until he went to the Investiture of the Gods world and the Jade Void Palace, and saw the remaining image in the palace, he suddenly understood.
It turns out that the Golden Emperor did not die, but obtained the Dao lineage of the Heavenly Venerable Lingbao. With the help of the Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi’s [Limitless Seal] and the incense and divine path, he completely severed his past, quietly ascended to the other shore, transformed into the "Eternal Mother", established the Luo Sect, and even set out to establish the Void Homeland, occupy the Realm of Truth, and unify all the heavens and myriad realms!
Gu Xiaosang was the "beacon" of the former Golden Emperor and now the Eternal Mother, and she died in the struggle.
Meng Qi and the Eternal Mother are truly irreconcilable enemies!
"What does he mean?" Meng Qi frowned. He didn't believe that Lu Ya was unaware of his antagonistic relationship with the Eternal Mother.
They also did not believe that Lu Ya would be completely unaware of the past identity of the Eternal Mother.
Even so, Lu Ya's first condition was still that he go to Yaochi to find the fragments of the peerless divine weapon Haotian Mirror and bring them back to him.
What exactly is Lu Ya planning?
“There shouldn’t be any major danger…” Cao Ya paused as he spoke, not daring to speak carelessly about those on the other side, even though the Eternal Mother was still slumbering in chaos!
Finally, he told Meng Qi to be careful, saying that if all else failed, he could revive Chonghe and the Taoist priest once he reached the other shore.
"Haha, Uncle-Master Xuanjie, you think too highly of me." Meng Qi laughed heartily.
The other shore, that is the realm that countless legendary figures and those with great supernatural powers have dreamed of. What virtue or ability does he have to be able to reach the other shore?
If it's just a legend, I have a little more faith in it.
Cao Ya smiled.
As the object of the Three Pure Ones' quest for emptiness, Meng Qi's future is destined to reach the other shore of enlightenment!
Otherwise, how can we inherit the karmic connections of the Three Pure Ones?
It should be known that the Three Pure Ones were born on the other shore, and are the first-class innate deities in the universe!
Even the Taoist master and the Buddha, in terms of origin alone, cannot compare to the Three Pure Ones.
In the end, Cao Ya refused Meng Qi's invitation. Now that he had the treasure Reincarnation Seal and a set of divine skills, he didn't lack anything, so why should he risk going to Yaochi?
Even with his abilities, he could potentially reap great rewards if he went, and the danger might not be that great, but he still doesn't plan to go.
Because it's unnecessary!
How many treasures in the Heavenly Court can compare to the Reincarnation Seal? The Heavenly Dao Seal has been broken, the Time Blade is in the Xuan Tian Sect, but everything else is inferior to the Reincarnation Seal.
As for divine skills and ultimate techniques...
Hey, even the Heavenly Emperor's most powerful technique, the Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor, pales in comparison to the Seven Swords of Heaven's Interception, the Tathagata Palm, and the Nine Seals of Primordial Beginning, falling into a disadvantageous position.
He really doesn't need to take any more risks!
Even though the danger seems small!
But who knows what unexpected changes might occur along the way?
Because of his existence, the course of history has already changed, and with the Reincarnation Seal in his hand, if it attracts the covetousness of powerful figures who might secretly take action, he would be in great danger and could be doomed.
Staying in the real world is much safer.
Because the final calamity has not yet truly arrived, and the rules of the universe impose many restrictions, the great figures dare not return prematurely; otherwise, with the erosion of time and the suppression of the Great Dao, they too would perish.
