Humans in the primordial world, inscribing the Way of Heaven!

Chapter 142 [Haotian's Ambitions, the Reactions of the Saints] (Please Subscribe)
Knowing the future trends, Haotian's choice to become the Heavenly Emperor undoubtedly indicates his desire to accomplish great things in the primordial world.

During this period, the initiative of Daluo such as Chiming and Fuyuan Xianweng to join him, as well as the initiative of Panwang, a Quasi-Saint of the Second Corpse, to show goodwill, gave him a lot of confidence and made him begin to have the aura of a Heavenly Emperor.

He thought his biggest rivals were those Heavenly Saints, but he didn't expect that Fuxi and Yinglong would give him a big surprise first.

Among these people, Fuxi is not only the Xihuang of the demon race, but also the elder brother of the goddess Nuwa. Even though in the eyes of the goddess Nuwa he may no longer be the original Fuxi, it would still be suspicious to offend the goddess Nuwa if one were to attack Fuxi.

As for the Queen Mother of the West, there's no need to elaborate. Although her reputation was somewhat affected by the Wangshu incident, she was still the head of the female immortals appointed by the Daoist Ancestor.

Yinglong was also a renowned dragon power in ancient times. After the ancestral dragon transformed into the Dao, and the Azure Dragon Mengzhang established the Heavenly Dao to resolve the karmic burdens of the dragon race, he became one of the Four Extreme Holy Lords. Yinglong was undoubtedly the second-in-command of the dragon race.

Although Zhulong was not involved in this matter, Yinglong's choice, to some extent, can illustrate the Dragon Clan's attitude towards the Human God Dynasty.

Zhen Yuanzi and Styx Daoist need no further introduction. One is the ancestor of earth immortals, and the other is the leader of the Asura Sect. Both are top figures below the level of saints. Even though they only sent an avatar this time, it was enough to clearly show their attitude.

"Are they going against the will of Heaven?"

Haotian's face was gloomy. Although he knew the general trend of the future, he had only recently left Zixiao Palace and was not yet able to keep his emotions in check.

He knew that the support from these Great Luo Immortals of the Heavenly Court was undoubtedly an attempt to curry favor with the Dao Ancestor, and also because they had learned about the future trends through Di Jun.

However, his own prestige was insufficient to make these Great Luo kings submit to him.

In that instant, he couldn't help but think of Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi, the four demon saints who followed the two to the Dao, and the more than three hundred demon gods at the Daluo level: "Why is it that Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi can get so many Daluo to follow them willingly, while I can't? What am I lacking?"

His gaze lingered on the soaring aura atop Mount Tai, and on the dragon-headed staff in Fuxi's hand, bestowed upon the Eastern King Duke by the Dao Ancestor—a symbol of the head of the male immortals. His brow remained furrowed for a long time.

"Ugh!"

After a long silence, Haotian let out a soft sigh and looked at the people in the Lingxiao Palace: "The purpose of Fuxi and the others in establishing the Human Dao Divine Dynasty is obvious: to compete with us for the destiny of the Three Realms. I wonder if any of you ministers have any suggestions on how we should respond?"

Chi Ming, with his fiery temper, immediately advised, "Your Majesty, you are the Heavenly Emperor appointed by the Dao Ancestor, while Fuxi, as a remnant of the demon race, still possesses the treasure for suppressing destiny bestowed upon the Eastern King Duke by the Dao Ancestor. You should suppress the rebels led by Fuxi, Yinglong, and others with overwhelming force!"

If Haotian were to attack Fuxi, he would have a legitimate reason to do so. The dragon-headed walking stick and the past events involving the Eastern King Duke could all be used as leverage.

But now, the Heavenly Court only has three Quasi-Saints: Haotian, Yaochi, and Panwang. If they take the initiative to act, it might actually solidify Fuxi's reputation.

"inappropriate!"

Haotian shook his head: "Fuxi and the others have received imperial decrees from the Human Emperor, and their fortunes are at their peak. It is really not suitable to confront them head-on at this time!"

Upon hearing this, Immortal Fu Yuan immediately stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the peaches in the Peach Garden are almost ripe, aren't they? Why not use the Peach Banquet as an excuse to invite Fuxi, several sages, and some powerful beings from the primordial world to our Heavenly Court for a discussion and banquet, and thus test their attitude?"

"In addition, back then, the Eastern King Duke conferred the title of Five Heavenly Emperors upon Ling Weiyang and several others. Ling Weiyang and the Eastern King Duke perished at the hands of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi. Ling Weiyang's position as the Azure Emperor was also taken away by Fuxi... But the four Quasi-Saints, including Bai Zhaoju and Han Shuji, are still alive. Perhaps we can try to win them over!"

Haotian nodded immediately.

The people mentioned by Immortal Fu Yuan are the Five Emperors of the Second Generation of the Primordial True Realm, who have an inextricable karmic connection with Fuxi and the future human race.

If the Five Emperors of the Second Generation had not perished, how could Shennong, Xuanyuan, and others have attained the Dao Fruit of the Five Emperors?

After Di Jun revealed the grand scheme of the Heavenly Dao, these people became like frightened birds, gathering together in fear that one day they would be plotted against and killed!

But now, with Fuxi establishing the Human God Dynasty, the fortune of the witches and demons is flowing into the human race, and the human race is already showing signs of becoming the protagonist of heaven and earth...

Haotian wouldn't believe it if someone said that Han Hushu and Bai Zhaoju weren't panicking.

"Then let Fellow Daoist Fu Yuan be in charge of sending invitations to the Peach Banquet to Fuxi and the others!"

Haotian directly issued a decree.

Now that the Heavenly Court has just been established, he has no team of his own. For a moment, he even wanted to ask the Dao Ancestor Hongjun to bestow the Investiture of the Gods ahead of schedule!

Why not?

For a moment, Haotian also had a bold idea. If the disciples of the sages were to be enshrined as gods, he would have no real power because of their status as disciples of the sages. Instead, he would be sidelined by them. It would be better to use the Investiture of the Gods to enshrine those powerful beings of the primordial world who should have perished.

In this way, as long as the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip are in his hands, wouldn't the life and death of the gods of the Heavenly Court be in his hands?
His gaze swept over everyone in the hall. These celestial beings, even Chi Ming and Fu Yuan Xianweng who had just made the suggestion, all had their own schemes and were not of one mind with him.

Although these Great Luo Immortals have currently pledged allegiance to him, how many of them are truly willing to stand with him and face the schemes of these Sages?

I'm afraid that if some saint just gives them a few sweet treats, the other party will turn around and target them!
Haotian isn't stupid!

He knew that the saints had been completely silent during this time, perhaps because they were planning to make him and Fuxi's Human God Dynasty suffer mutual destruction!

Even if you try your best to restrain yourself, someone will still deliberately ignite the conflict between the two parties.

The lesson of the ten-day celestial patrol during the Lich Wars is still fresh in our minds!

"Since that's the case, why don't I turn the tables and grant the wishes of you saints?"

Haotian had an idea and looked towards the direction of Zixiao Palace: "Of course, the premise is that I can obtain a way to protect myself and save my life from the master, and then take control of the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip!" After a moment, his gaze fell on the direction of Kunlun Mountain: "In my Heavenly Court, all the immortals and gods should be appointed by me. Why should we go through the hands of Yuanshi Tianzun and Jiang Ziya?"

He thought of the twenty cycles of reincarnation that Di Jun had exposed, in which he, as the ruler of the Heavenly Court, was sidelined by the disciples of the Chan and Jie sects!
"The Antarctic Longevity Emperor is the Antarctic Daoist of the Chan Sect. The Eastern Azure Flower Emperor is sometimes the reincarnation of the Eastern King Duke, and sometimes the Taiyi of the Chan Sect. The Western Gouchen Emperor, although a reincarnation of a star god, was also taken into the Chan Sect's fold in advance!"

"The Lord of the Eight Departments: the Lord of the Fighting Department is Jin Ling of the Jie Sect; the Lord of the Thunder Department is Lei Ze, an ancient god who was tricked and later reincarnated as Wen Zhong of the human race, and is also a disciple of the Jie Sect... Luo Xuan of the Fire Department, Lü Yue of the Plague Department, Zhao Gongming of the Wealth Department, as well as the Zhou Tian Stars and the gods of the Three Mountains and Five Peaks!"

"Although these disciples of the Jie Sect are listed as true spirits and subject to the Investiture of the Gods, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable has always firmly controlled the Investiture of the Gods!"

Haotian was not interested in the Investiture of the Gods. After the Investiture of the Gods, the positions of the gods in the Heavenly Court were full, but how many would be willing to be driven by him?
The most outrageous thing is that after the Investiture of the Gods, Yuanshi Tianzun did not hand over the Investiture of the Gods to himself, but instead had Nanji and Taiyi take turns keeping it.

They even went so far as to claim that this was to restrain the Heavenly Emperor and prevent him from abusing the power of the Heavenly Court!

"How dare you control my Heavenly Court? Am I the Heavenly Emperor, or are you, the Antarctic Daoist and the Taiyi Zhenren of your Chan Sect, the Heavenly Emperor?"

After having this crazy idea, Haotian did not hesitate at all. He went directly to borrow the Western Plain Cloud Banner of Yaochi, which concealed the heavenly secrets and cause and effect, and fled to the location of Zixiao Palace.

As long as one can obtain the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip in advance, whether it's the rise of the human race or the conflict between the Chan and Jie factions, it will all be for one's own benefit!

"Fight! Fight!"

At this moment, Haotian wished that more great calamities would break out in the Primordial True Realm, and that those Great Luo Immortals would find someone to fight against them whenever they had nothing else to do.

Haotian's idea was too crazy, and since all the saints were focused on Fuxi and the Human God Dynasty at the moment, no one really noticed that he had left the Heavenly Court.

At the same time, the Eight Views Palace, Jade Void Palace, Biyou Palace, Mount Sumeru, Taisu Heaven, and the Underworld all received invitations to the Peach Banquet!

Yuanshi Tianzun looked knowing: "Haotian can't sit still anymore, can he? Take Guangchengzi and the others to the South Pole!"

The mere Peach Banquet was not enough to warrant his personal attendance as a Heavenly Sage, but sending his disciples there to broaden their horizons was a good option.

However, none of his disciples have broken through to the Great Luo realm yet, and even Antarctic is just a little short. Without a Great Luo Golden Immortal to support him, it won't work.

Thinking of this, Yuanshi Tianzun immediately summoned Daoist Randeng: "Fellow Daoist Randeng, this time, I'll trouble you to take good care of Antarctica and the others!"

"Yes!"

The Taoist Ran Deng nodded quickly.

In Biyou Palace, the Tongtian Sect Leader made the same decision: he would not go himself, but would send Duobao Daoist and Wuzhiqi, the Dharma Protector of the Jie Sect, along with some core disciples to broaden their horizons.

Daoist Duobao immediately nodded, then said dismissively, "Should we call Junior Brother Xuan Yin and Junior Brother Kong Xuan back?"

"no need!"

The Tongtian Sect Leader shook his head and laughed, "Fuxi is the main character at this Peach Banquet. We, the sages and the Great Luo Immortals of the Heavens, are merely supporting characters! Those two, following Fuxi, will naturally have no shortage of seats! You, Wuzhiqi, Jinling, and the others, when you go to the Peach Banquet, don't say a word. Just eat a few more peaches and absolutely do not meddle in the affairs of the Heavenly Court and the Human Divine Dynasty!"

Without hesitation, Daoist Duobao nodded and said, "This disciple will obey Master's instructions!"

On the Human Sect's side, there were no vice leaders or protectors, but True Man Du'e was a Great Luo Immortal. It wouldn't be a problem for him to take Xuandu and the Golden-Winged Roc to broaden their horizons. For this matter, Laozi Taiqing even specially summoned True Man Du'e back from the Netherworld!

Master Du'e frowned slightly: "Then, Master, in this era, should I still strive to obtain a position as Venus in the Heavenly Court?"

"Just let things take their course!"

Taiqing Laozi remained unmoved: "The fortune of the Underworld Ghost Emperor is more than enough to satisfy your needs. Now is the time for the Heavenly Court and the Human God Dynasty to fight, so don't rashly interfere! Of course, if you have the opportunity, you can also try to become a close minister of the Heavenly Emperor!"

"If you are a minister of the Heavenly Court and also the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, you could provide Haotian with a legitimate opportunity to intervene in the Underworld!"

"He won't refuse!"

"Even if he already knows that you are the old Taoist priest, someone he placed in the Heavenly Court!"

Upon hearing this, Master Du'e nodded quickly. With Taiqing Laozi offering guidance, he wasn't worried about being drawn into the storm.

Xuan Du doesn't need him to worry.

The only thing to worry about is the Golden-Winged Roc; we can't let him say anything reckless.

At the same time, Houtu summoned Xingtian: "Xingtian, you will represent me at the Peach Banquet in Heaven this time!"

Upon hearing this, Xing Tian frowned and said, "Ancestral Witch, this is not a good idea! After all, it was I who injured Haotian's true spirit during those twenty reincarnations!"

He is not a fool!
If he were to attend the banquet, would Haotian feel that the Wu Clan was provoking him?
"This is the effect we want!"

Houtu did not change her mind: "This is a good opportunity to see what kind of person Haotian is!"
