King Qin Guang led the other nine Yama Kings inside.
Inside the thatched hut was only a wooden bed, and on the bed sat an old man who looked very old.
The moment they saw the old man, the Ten Kings of Hell became solemn and bowed to him.
"Your Majesty, something has happened."
"I see."
Before King Qin Guang could finish speaking, the old man opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, it was as if his eyes were filled with countless stars.
"I'll handle it. You can go back now."
The moment the old man's voice fell, he had already vanished before the eyes of the Ten Kings of Hell.
Upon seeing this, King Yama's expression became extremely grave. He looked at King Qin Guang and said, "Old Qin, if the Great Emperor intervenes, it will hasten his..."
King Qin Guang sighed, "Let's go. Let's go back! The only thing we can do now is to manage our respective duties well and prevent the Emperor from intervening again."
Every time the Great Emperor made a move, it would push his already crumbling divine body to the brink of collapse.
Once the divine body completely collapses, the true form of the emperor will dissipate, requiring the true spirit to reincarnate and rebuild.
However, this era is not the same as the one with abundant spiritual energy in the past. It is simply unrealistic to want to cultivate back to the level of a Great Emperor. Otherwise, they would not be so focused on accumulating merit to cultivate.
"Actually, we could have let Fellow Daoist Zhang try it!" King Yama sighed.
“But he’s the only one in the mortal realm who can be considered capable. If we keep him here, who will protect the humans in the mortal realm?” King Qin Guang looked deeply at King Zhuanlun: “We can’t be so selfish.”
King Yama gave a wry smile.
This incident will indeed affect both the mortal and spiritual realms.
"So, is that thing about to begin? Both the Yin and Yang realms have already been affected? At that time..."
Be careful what you say!
Before King Yama could finish speaking, King Qin Guang hurriedly rebuked him.
King Yama kept his mouth shut.
It wasn't because of King Qin Guang's reprimand, but because a cloud of calamity had appeared above his head, with purple thunder crackling on it.
The next second, countless bolts of lightning poured down and struck King Yama.
King Qin Guang dodged the lightning strike the instant it struck.
They were also afraid of being caught in the crossfire of the Wheel King's actions.
Nobody wants to be struck by lightning a few times.
This is not just a matter of a few strikes. If they are struck by the tribulation lightning formed by the Heavenly Dao, although they will not die, their cultivation will be delayed by several years.
This is Heaven's punishment for their wrong words.
On the other side.
After returning to reality, Zhang Tianle squinted his eyes.
He sensed something was wrong.
Something is very wrong.
It's not just the underworld that's acting strangely.
Even after returning to the mortal realm, he still felt a sense of unease.
He had no clue where this sense of unease came from.
[Mission: Save the lives of 20 million people in Yangcheng. Hint: At midnight, stars will fall. Please prepare accordingly!]
The system's voice sounded promptly.
As soon as the notification sound rang, Zhang Tianle suddenly looked up at the sky.
The stars in the sky were twinkling, and some of them seemed brighter than usual.
Stars are falling!
And it wasn't just one.
It's a group!
The direction it landed was precisely in Yangcheng.
Zhang Tianle's expression became more serious.
He knocked on Liu Yiyi's door, and he also knocked on Master Huian's door.
Liu Yiyi and Master Hui'an, who had just fallen asleep, were both woken up by Zhang Tianle.
"What's wrong?"
Both of them still looked sleepy.
If the person in front of them wasn't Zhang Tianle, they probably would have beaten the person who woke them up into a pulp.
"A series of stars will fall tonight, and there's no time to react, so I need your help."
Zhang Tianle spoke to the two of them with a serious expression.
"Um?"
"What the hell?"
"A shower of stars? How is that possible? The celestial phenomena don't seem to indicate that a shower of stars is about to fall."
Master Hui'an was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the sky and launched into a tirade against Zhang Tianle.
But after spraying, she did some calculations.
"Boy, are you making fun of your nun? There's no way anything could possibly happen." Abbess Hui'an rolled her eyes and wanted to go back to sleep.
Just then, the old Taoist priest opened the door.
When he saw the three people standing at the door, he was taken aback: "What are you doing so late at night?"
He's getting old, and his senses are shallow.
He would wake up at the slightest sound from these people.
"Old Taoist priest, can you calculate whether there will be a mass of stars falling today? My nephew just said that there will be a mass of stars falling."
If the stars were to fall, none of us here would escape!
Master Hui'an said with a smile.
In the past, these sorcerers could calculate the time of a star's fall well in advance.
She had calculated at the beginning of this year that there would be no starfall at all, so she really couldn't believe Zhang Tianle's claim that stars would fall now.
Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest frowned and immediately took out his tools to perform calculations.
Ten minutes later, he shook his head.
"It's impossible for a star to fall! These star orbits are all following their original paths; there's absolutely no sign of them deviating."
"I'm not asking you to predict whether the stars will fall, but to help me," Zhang Tianle said with a wry smile.
Time is life.
If it weren't for persuading them to help him set up the formation, he really wouldn't have bothered with all that talking.
Unfortunately, he can't complete all the preparations by himself right now.
It takes at least three people to complete the formation in just one hour.
Are you sure?
Seeing Zhang Tianle's solemn expression, the old Taoist priest immediately pressed him for details.
"Yes. I'm sure!"
"Okay! Tell me what you need me to do, and I'll help you!"
Now that Zhang Tianle is a first-class Celestial Master, he might be able to calculate things that they can't.
Even if he can't figure it out, Heaven might give him a hint.
So he chose to believe him.
"Alright. Even outsiders believe you, so I, as your senior disciple, have no reason not to believe you or not to help you. Tell me quickly. What should we do?"
Needless to say, Liu Yiyi is another story.
She did whatever her senior brother told her to do.
"You guys are doing this..."
Zhang Tianle explained everything he wanted them to do.
After speaking, Zhang Tianle looked at them and said, "Did you all remember? You can't make even the slightest mistake, or it will really cause a disaster!"
"I've remembered everything! Don't worry!" Influenced by Zhang Tianle, Master Hui'an's expression also became serious.
"Okay! I'll go draw some talismans now." Zhang Tianle nodded: "I'll leave these tasks to you."
