Primordial Era: I really don't want to be the Heavenly Emperor!

Chapter 332 Heavenly Court Military Review!

In the Great Luo Heaven of the Celestial Realm, representatives of various forces, powerful beings, and those with great supernatural abilities have all gathered here for the "Taiwei Era Birthday and the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Celestial Court!"

To be more specific, it is said that the Purple Palace has ascended to heaven and the Heavenly Court has been established for ten million years, and all the immortals and gods are invited to witness and commemorate this.

Ten million years is the lifespan of a world in other worlds, but for the Primordial World, it's like a small river flowing into the ocean, unable to make a ripple.

Emperor Donghua, sitting high on his throne, looked down at the people below. Today, none of the sages had come to this gathering; instead, they had sent their disciples. There was really no need for that.

Even he wanted his avatar to participate, simply because he had nothing better to do. His cultivation was stuck at the early stage of the fourth heaven, and he had no opportunity to break through to the middle stage for the time being.

So I had some free time for a while!

"Nothing to do today, so I'll listen to music at the brothel!"

This is a bit of an exaggeration, but it does reflect his recent life. Today, the Heavenly Court prepared a lot of dances and music for the gathering, especially the dances of Yaochi and Taiyin Star, which could almost destroy a person's Dao heart.

Those fairies all attained enlightenment through dance. Every movement was natural and perfectly executed, revealing the essence of Tao. Those with lower cultivation levels would indeed be drawn in and become immersed in the Tao of others.

Especially Changxi, who is dancing right now.

That's right, it's Changxi, the Moon Goddess!

It's hard to believe, but a dignified mid-stage powerhouse was actually dancing in the main hall. When Donghua first found out, he also found it hard to believe and even thought it was absurd.

But since Changxi was willing, perhaps that's the power of passion.

In the center of the main hall, accompanied by nine fairies from the Moon Palace, Changxi performed a dance that was perfectly natural and vividly expressed the Dao.

Some of the Quasi-Saints in the main hall were alright, able to stick to their own path and not succumb to it, but all the Great Luo and Taiyi were completely captivated by Changxi's dance.

His mind followed Changxi's dance, and even the Great Dao couldn't help but manifest itself.

However, Donghua could see that although Changxi's Dance contained her own Dao, it could help others comprehend the Dao, which was why he did not stop it, but instead welcomed it.

After all, it was Changxi who put in the effort, but it was the Heavenly Court that benefited.

The dance is over!

Apart from a few veteran quasi-saints, everyone in the main hall was immersed in Changxi's dance.

"Okay! Okay! Okay?"

Donghua clapped his hands in praise, which also startled everyone who was immersed in the dance.

"Your Majesty's dance is unparalleled in the primordial world, and your approach is quite innovative!"

Changxi bowed and said, "Thank you for your praise, Great Heavenly Venerable!"

"Is this dance famous?"

"Combined with the Great Dao, a newly created dance, nameless!"

Donghua nodded and said, "If Your Majesty doesn't mind, I can name this dance 'The Dance of the Dao,' what do you think?"

Changxi thought about it for a moment and felt that the name was very ordinary, too ordinary, but it was indeed fitting. Now that Donghua had spoken, she certainly couldn't refuse.

"Then let it be called Dao Wu, and thank you, Great Heavenly Venerable, for bestowing upon me this name!"

After Changxi finished speaking, she stepped forward and sat down in her seat!

Donghua gave an awkward laugh. He could tell that Changxi was not satisfied with the name, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't shake his bad habit of trying to come up with a name, even though he was terrible at it.

As Changxi finished her dance, the atmosphere of the banquet instantly reached its peak, and everyone began to discuss philosophy, drink wine, and taste spiritual fruits.

Donghua, no longer displaying his former authority, was drinking and chatting with some old friends.

"Fellow Daoist Hongyun, if there is anything else you wish to accomplish in this life, do it as soon as possible. Your opportunity is approaching."

Upon hearing Donghua's words, Hongyun's hazy, drunken eyes lit up instantly. He knew what this meant. Donghua had promised him the opportunity to break through to the Quasi-Saint level and become a Human Emperor.

However, it was indeed time. Although he was often in the Heavenly Realm and Fire Cloud Cave, he kept a close eye on the situation of the human race.

Now that Fuxi has reached the peak of Quasi-Saint level, the human race has experienced a surge in fortune, with many outstanding talents emerging, and the number of Daluo and Taiyi realm cultivators is much greater than before.

Among all the races in the primordial world, the human race became the foremost, and finally gained the prestige and power of a ruler of humanity.

Based on his judgment, the time when humans leave the east is not too far off.

"I have no attachments, no disciples, only a few close friends, and it seems they don't need any care." As he said this, Hongyun looked at Zhen Yuanzi.

The slightly somber atmosphere was instantly broken into laughter by Hongyun's words.

"I hope your mouth will change after you are reincarnated, otherwise it will bring you trouble sooner or later!" Zhen Yuanzi angrily pointed at Hongyun.

"It can't be changed, it can't be changed!"

After speaking, Hongyun raised the cup of spirit wine before him and respectfully addressed Donghua, saying, "Thank you, Great Heavenly Venerable. Hongyun will certainly not disappoint your expectations, and when I return, I will no longer be a Quasi-Saint!"

"Alright, then I'll have a cup of celebratory wine in advance for your enlightenment!"

The two drank it all in one gulp. Inside the hall, the lights of the cups mingled, and voices of discussion and arguments could be heard from time to time, though they were all normal debates.

The banquet was drawing to a close!

Just then, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden walked in, dressed in armor.

"Reporting to the Great Heavenly Venerable, all departments and armies of the Heavenly Court have completed their formations and are awaiting your inspection!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell silent. Everyone forced out the effects of the alcohol and instantly reverted to their divine and powerful selves.

Donghua's earlier laughter vanished, and the Heavenly Emperor's Dharma Image instantly appeared. The three thousand Great Daos intertwined, eventually forming three thousand divine wheels that illuminated the primordial world. A powerful pressure emanated from everyone, as deep and oppressive as a hell.

"Alright, thank you for your hard work, Emperor Tianxuan!"

Donghua looked down and said, "Esteemed ministers and fellow Daoists, would you be willing to go to the Heavenly Palace for a visit?"

"It is our honor!"

Donghua hummed in agreement, then said, "Let's proceed to the Heavenly Palace!"

The Nine Dragons Incense Carriage appeared, and relying on it, the multitude proceeded towards the Heavenly Palace in a grand procession.

The Heavenly Palace is the daily training ground for the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals of the Heavenly Court. Rather than calling it a Heavenly Palace, it is more like a world in itself, as this place was personally created by Donghua.

When everyone arrived at the Heavenly Palace, the entire army had already assembled and was ready to depart.

The government affairs council, the fighting department, the thunder department, the water department, the fire department, and other eight departments of the Heavenly Court were originally formed from the thirty-five departments.

It also includes its subsidiaries such as Tongming Division, Tiangong Institute, and Tianlu Institute!

The Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, Qilin Clan, Giant Clan, Iron-Eating Beast Clan, and so on, are all subordinate clans of the Heavenly Court. They possess a certain degree of autonomy, just like the Dragon and Phoenix Clans. The Heavenly Court hardly interferes with their internal operations.

However, these groups are closely related to the Heavenly Court, because most of their people hold positions in the Heavenly Court.

Finally, there are the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals of the Heavenly Court, commanded by the Heavenly Emperor Tianxuan and the Grand Marshal of the Army, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden, who exist for war!

Within the Heavenly Palace, armies were present on all sides!

As the crowd arrived, the spectators from all sides were led to a high platform, while the emperors and rulers of the Heavenly Court followed Donghua to the reviewing stand.

The moment Donghua stood on the high platform, the massive platform instantly transformed into a warship and soared into the air.

Donghua was clad in a suit of armor, the Xuan Tian Battle Armor, a top-tier acquired spiritual treasure given to him by Zhulong in the past. This armor was of little use to him now, and he was only wearing it symbolically.

The Heavenly Emperor's Seal transformed into a colossal golden dragon, soaring into the sky, its roar echoing through the heavens.

All who heard this sound instantly regained their senses, their fighting spirit ignited, and the entire army shouted in unison:

"Greetings, Great Celestial Venerable!"

"Greetings, Great Celestial Venerable..."

Its power and prestige are earth-shattering!

Donghua pointed the Heavenly Emperor Sword in his hand toward the sky, and the three armies fell silent.

"The parade begins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the three armies moved in unison, their weapons clashing.

"kill!"

The shout of "Kill!" startled everyone, even the quasi-saints. At this moment, they had no doubt that this army could kill a quasi-saint.

This is the wonderful application of the power of battle formations and the power of luck.

With the Purple Palace ascending to Heaven, Donghua once again improved the Heavenly Court's military formations, introducing the power of destiny.

In other words, in the coming days, with authorization and permission, they can mobilize some of the Heavenly Court's fortune to their advantage. To put it bluntly, an army composed of Golden Immortals can surround and kill a Great Luo Immortal.

But this is on the premise that Ronaldo will not tear through space-time to escape.

However, Donghua also had other methods to deal with this situation, one of which was the spacetime talisman and sealing talisman of the talismanic way. This was because Donghua was the founder of the talismanic way, and he had tried to create many minor paths in the past.

Puppetry, talismanic arts, demon control, and the Gu arts of Panwang Ancestor, etc.

Although these are minor paths, many of them involve Donghua proposing a concept and then handing it over to the Heavenly Court Research Institute for in-depth development and research.

Back when it was in the Purple Palace, Donghua established a research department, which was upgraded to an academy after the Heavenly Court was established.

The first director of the research institute was none other than Emperor Fuxi, one of the Six Emperors. Even Donghua himself held the title of honorary director. Later, when Fuxi was reincarnated, the position of director of the research institute became vacant and was held by several people.

Donghua attached great importance to the research institute, and the research institute also gave back a lot to the Heavenly Court. The armor and weapons of the heavenly soldiers and generals were all designed by the research institute.

Just like the Heavenly Court has an army called the Demon Subduing Army, whose commander is Yuan Zhen, the second disciple of Donghua, who has the cultivation level of a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Each demon-slaying soldier carries a demon-binding rope, a demon-slaying knife, a demon-capturing bag, and various magical artifacts and treasures designed to target demons. All of these items were developed by the research institute.

The Heavenly Court also has military units such as the Demon Suppression Army and the Heavenly Slaughter Army, with the Heavenly Slaughter Army specifically designed to target the human race.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Court established a special military unit targeting the Western world. The characteristics of the Western gods were provided by the incarnation of Donghua, God. The research institute gathered the strength of everyone to develop an effective battle formation and magic weapon, all for the purpose of conquering the Western divine realm.

Donghua never fights unprepared battles, just like when it attacked the Wu and Yao tribes.

Faced with the powerful Western God Realm, how could Donghua not have special means?

The Heavenly Court's military parade officially began, with various military units, armor, magical artifacts, and battle formations making their first public appearance before the people of the prehistoric world, leaving many astonished.

On the viewing platform, Styx watched the celestial soldiers and generals displaying their power and couldn't help but ask the four Asura Kings beside him:

"Can my Asura army fight against the Heavenly Court's troops?"

The four Asura Kings remained silent, wondering where their ancestor got the confidence to ask such a question.

Let alone the heavenly soldiers and generals of the Heavenly Court today, even back when it was still the Purple Mansion, these soldiers and generals were capable of taking on both the Witch and Demon races single-handedly.

Those are the Lich and Demon races!

Especially the Wu Clan, those battle maniacs, those Wu Clan who were born for war, were all defeated and crushed by Zifu. What are the Asura Clan compared to them?

Brahma could only grit his teeth and say, "Ancestor, we are determined to fight to the death!"

Styx glared at Brahma, and finally could only sigh helplessly. Don't be fooled by the fact that the Asura race seems to have no rivals in the prehistoric world and has terrified all races.

But that was just a minor skirmish. If the Asura race were to fight against the former Lich and Demon races, they would definitely lose, and lose badly at that.

Moreover, it's the Heavenly Court!

After all, the Asura race is a flawed race with a shallow foundation.

Currently, the Asura race only has four Quasi-Saints, all of whom have just broken through to the Human Realm. However, there are only these four left, and there will be no other Quasi-Saints.

Unless the Asura race can become the masters of humanity and the protagonists of heaven and earth.

But Styx knew this was impossible!

"Take a look, learn a lot, and then contact the Heavenly Court's Treasure Pavilion to see if we can purchase some Heavenly Court battle formations, talismans, or similar items. Our great war with the human race is about to begin!"

Styx's gaze was deep as he looked at Fuxi and the other humans not far away, his eyes filled with envy, especially when he looked at Fuxi.

"Although we cannot become the masters of humanity, we must still obtain enough benefits and not allow humans to easily become the protagonists of heaven and earth."

Brahma respectfully replied, "Yes, Ancestor!"

But he couldn't help but complain, "But that guy Ran Deng is really insatiable. He recently started some kind of auction where the highest bidder wins, and he's raised the prices of some rare and precious materials."

Upon hearing this name, Styx scoffed, "Randeng is nothing but a dog kept by Donghua, a despicable person. If we weren't both guests of Zixiao Palace, the Ancestor would have killed him with a single sword strike!"

"But now that the Heavenly Court is so powerful, I, the Ancestor, can't afford to offend Donghua. So let the price be high, lest I end up like Kunpeng."

Although Styx had never seen Donghua "stir-fry Kunpeng meat", something must have happened that Kunpeng, such a proud and arrogant person, was willing to submit to the Heavenly Court and eventually become a demon emperor alongside someone like Feidan.

There's no doubt that Donghua made the move; it's just unclear whether it was through bribery or coercion.

There are many others who share the same thoughts as Styx, such as the Golden Toad Ancestor, the leader of the Southern Insect Clan.

Even the human race couldn't sit still. The Earth Emperor looked intently at Fuxi and said softly, "Your Majesty, you are one of the Six Emperors of Heaven, the Heavenly Emperor. Could you get some good stuff from Heaven? If we have these things, our upcoming conquests will be much easier."

Fuxi coughed tactically. To be honest, he had already approached Randeng, but to no avail. Randeng was a real tightwad and, being a businessman, refused to offer him any discounts.

And he really had no way to deal with it, after all, Wanbaoge was directly under Donghua's control, and everyone in the Heavenly Court knew that Randeng only listened to Donghua.

Fuxi, in a fit of rage, gave Randeng a severe beating.

"Don't worry, I will speak to the Great Celestial Venerable. But don't get your hopes up too high. This military parade by the Heavenly Court is not only to intimidate the various forces in the prehistoric world, but more importantly..."

Fuxi paused here, not saying much more, since the affairs of the Western God Realm were still kept secret.

Apart from the Heavenly Court and a few powerful beings, no one else knows about this!

As time passed, the grand Heavenly Parade came to an end.

However, the conflicts in the primordial world are likely to begin again. This time, it may be a head-on clash between the three major forces, ultimately determining the Lord of Heaven.
