"My temple!"
"Offerings of incense to this deity!"
"My faith on earth!"
"."
In an instant, not only the Jade Emperor, but also countless other gods and immortals were greatly enraged.
They were not immortals or gods of the Jie Sect or the Chan Sect, but they were all listed on the Investiture of the Gods.
Their physical bodies were destroyed, rendering them unable to cultivate themselves. They could only improve their cultivation by absorbing the power of faith from the human world.
But now, the only way to improve one's cultivation level has been destroyed. How can one not be furious?!
The Qin dynasty destroyed their main road and their path forward; this is an irreconcilable feud.
Even though they know their faith is toxic, so what?
Everyone knows the pain of being unable to advance in one's cultivation level.
They would rather take risks and bear the dangers brought by their beliefs in order to improve their own spiritual cultivation.
Many of the immortals and gods of the Jie Sect who relied on the power of faith held it in utter contempt.
Their spiritual level also needs to be elevated with the help of the power of faith.
But they refused. Even if they could not cultivate and could only remain at their current level, they would not taint themselves with the power of faith.
Therefore, the destroyed temples of gods and immortals are like chicken bones to them, not worth mentioning.
It's just a pity that a portion of the human race's destiny has been lost.
"Damn it, damn it!"
The Jade Emperor gritted his teeth. He had thought that the human emperor in the mortal realm only wanted to erase the title of emperor and become the First Emperor, but he never expected that the emperor would be so rebellious.
He wished he could tear the next Qin emperor, Ying Zheng (Shen Du), to pieces and cast his soul into the eighteenth level of hell, never to be reborn.
Unfortunately, he can't do it now.
But soon, this will become a reality.
With a deep voice, he looked at Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, who stood there with his eyes filled with anger, and roared, "Li Jing, you shall immediately lead 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, along with the Four Heavenly Kings, the Giant Spirit God, and the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas, Nezha, to descend to the mortal realm and hold the Qin Emperor Ying Zheng accountable!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Li Tianwang stepped forward, his respectful words tinged with anger.
His physical body was destroyed, but he barely managed to consolidate his Golden Immortal realm strength by relying on the power of faith from the mortal world.
He doesn't aspire to break through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, but maintaining his strength at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm is already quite good.
Unfortunately, nowadays, the Li Tianwang Temple in the mortal realm has been demolished, the power of faith has collapsed, and the peak Golden Immortal realm, which had just stabilized for a period of time, has begun to tremble.
He seemed as if he were about to fall from the peak of the Golden Immortal realm and return to the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm in the next moment.
Once your realm falls, it becomes as difficult as ascending to heaven to rise again.
So how could Li Jing not be furious?!
This time, descending to the mortal realm will surely make Emperor Ying Zheng of Qin pay a terrible price.
He was to kowtow to Heaven three times and bow nine times, kneeling under the scorching sun for nine days, praying to Heaven for forgiveness of his sins.
Only by rebuilding the temples of the gods and immortals within the territory of Daqin can the Jade Emperor's anger be appeased.
Even after the death of Qin Emperor Ying Zheng, his soul fell into the eighteenth level of hell, never to be reborn.
Soon, a mighty army of 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, the Four Heavenly Kings, and Nezha, the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas, accompanied Li Jing to the Great Qin Dynasty in the Southern Continent.
Nezha looked at Li Jing beside him, his Fire-Tipped Spear flaring up even more fiercely, as if he wanted to pierce Li Jing's chest.
This made Li Jing tremble with fear, and he quickly kept his distance from Nezha.
"Ah!"
Nezha chuckled coldly.
He was just trying to scare him, but he didn't expect the old man to be so easily frightened.
"..."
Beyond the thirty-three heavens of the primordial world lies a chaotic universe.
Nuwa Palace.
"Strange, why does the human race's fortune fluctuate so much?!"
Nuwa murmured, her eyes filled with doubt.
Suddenly, she spoke with some surprise, "A war between the celestials and the human!"
"Does the current emperor wish to reclaim the throne of the human emperor?"
"That's interesting, but can you succeed?"
Inside Nuwa's palace, Nuwa looked down at the mortal realm with amusement.
Apart from the Sage Nuwa, the other beings, including Yuqing Yuanshi, Taiqing Laozi, Shangqing Tongtian, Zhunti Jieyin, and others, did not sense this battle between heaven and man from the primordial world.
They simply felt that the calamity energy of the primordial world was constantly growing.
Perhaps in a little while, a major battle, not too big, will break out.
This was perhaps just a sign that the Journey to the West had begun, and I didn't pay much attention to it.
Chapter 261 No Mercy! Below the Great Luo Immortal, all are but ants!
Southern Jambudvipa.
Great Qin.
The sky, which should have been shining brightly, was now shrouded in mist and clouds, making the heavens seem like a misty fairyland. However, bursts of divine thunder resounded, pressing down on the lower realm. The vast sky gradually became filled with the sound of divine thunder, and dark clouds spread, creating a thick sense of oppression throughout the entire territory of the Great Qin.
Countless commoners, princes, and nobles looked up at the heavens and witnessed 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, the Four Heavenly Kings, and Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, descending to the mortal realm. The sound of drums was as loud as thunder, piercing and resounding in the eardrums of all humankind in the Southern Continent, and also shaking the clouds in the sky.
"The Emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty in the mortal realm dares to demolish temples of immortals and gods, disrespects the gods and the heavens, and offends the Jade Emperor. He has committed a grave crime!"
"The Emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty in the mortal realm, come out immediately, kneel down, and beg for the Heavenly Court's forgiveness. Otherwise, all of you in the Great Qin territory will face the Heavenly Court's thunderous wrath!"
The voice of Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, accompanied by the resounding sound of heavenly drums, reached the ground below.
In an instant, the entire human race of the Southern Continent was thrown into chaos.
They all began to condemn the current king of Qin for daring to offend the gods and immortals, calling it utterly rebellious.
This was merely the condemnation of ordinary commoners. However, the remnants of the six states destroyed by the Qin Dynasty looked up at the heavens and witnessed the celestial beings descending to earth. They wanted to punish the tyrant of the Qin Dynasty and exclaimed that it was a great relief to them.
Even these remnants of the six states began to gather their recruited followers and start an uprising within the Qin territory, hoping to use the power of immortals and gods to overthrow the tyrannical Qin and re-establish their own dynasty.
Faced with this scene, Shen Du in the Xianyang Palace of the Great Qin slowly opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, his aura already possessed the presence of a Primordial Golden Immortal. This indicated that his true form had already been cultivating with Changxi of the Taiyin Star, thereby comprehending the highest realm of the Taiyin and Taiyang Laws, evolving the power of chaos, and thus breaking through to the Primordial Golden Immortal realm.
This clone of his, Ying Zheng, can also, in a short time, use the scarce human power in the world to release power far exceeding that of a Primordial Golden Immortal, but it is inferior to that of a Heavenly Saint.
However, this does not mean that this is the limit. As long as the position of the Human Emperor is returned, this clone of his can unleash the power of a Saint.
"Your Majesty, the civil and military officials are currently waiting outside Xianyang Palace, saying they have important matters to report!"
Several eunuchs hurriedly entered, bowed respectfully, and spoke hastily.
In response to the eunuch's words, Shendu waved his hand and said, "Let them in."
After saying this, several eunuchs summoned the civil and military officials outside the palace to enter Xianyang Palace within a few minutes.
Upon entering, apart from the four generals who had achieved the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm with the help of the supreme innate spiritual root Huang Zhongli, all the other civil and military officials knelt down and spoke in unison:
"Your Majesty, we humbly beg you to go forth and plead guilty to the Heavenly Court, and to forgive your sins!"
"Your Majesty has demolished the temples of the celestial gods; this is a crime of disrespecting the gods!"
"Your Majesty, I urge you to immediately go and beg the celestial beings who have come from Heaven for forgiveness!"
"."
"Oh, if I don't go, what can you do about it?!"
"Especially you, Li Si, I seem to have said that if you don't obey, my Great Qin can replace you with a different prime minister!"
Upon hearing this, Li Si, who had been resolute, slowly rose and addressed the capital, saying, "Your Majesty's direction is my direction!"
"What Your Majesty says is exactly what I wish for, and I wholeheartedly agree with everything Your Majesty says!"
Li Si's original intention was to protect the Qin Dynasty. After all, when the gods and immortals of Heaven descended to the mortal realm to punish the guilty, the human race had no power to resist. The only correct choice was to seek the forgiveness of the gods and immortals.
Moreover, so many civil and military officials pleaded with him, but His Majesty the First Emperor was a man of his word. If he said he wouldn't go, then he certainly wouldn't go.
As a hegemon who conquered six states, his tyranny was unpredictable. He casually found an excuse to wipe out the entire families of several ministers.
Li Si, who considered himself intelligent, reasoned that since so many civil and military officials had petitioned him, they could not sway the First Emperor's mind, so why should he continue to do useless things?
As for the questioning from the celestial gods and immortals, Li Si was unaware of His Majesty's true intentions. His current position was given to him by His Majesty, and His Majesty could also take it away.
But the price to be paid was something Li Si vaguely felt he couldn't afford.
After saying that, Li Si was already sweating profusely.
He could sense the cold killing intent in the words spoken by His Majesty the First Emperor just now.
He finally understood and was no longer tempted by the interests of other civil and military officials, thus losing his way.
He was the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, and he should have avoided any attempts to seduce him, obeying only the orders of His Majesty the First Emperor.
Facing that cold killing intent, Li Si still forced himself to speak, "Your Majesty, at present, within the territory of Qin, the remnants of the six states are rising up in rebellion with the help of immortals and gods, intending to overthrow Qin. I wonder what Your Majesty's solution is?!"
Shen Du glanced at the civil and military officials who were still kneeling on the ground, refusing to get up, then looked at Li Si, and finally turned his gaze to Meng Tian, who had already become a Great Luo Golden Immortal and whose hands were stained with countless blood, and said coldly, "Kill!!"
"I have already given the remnants of the six kingdoms a chance to submit to Qin and become its subjects. Since they are unwilling, let them all go to hell!"
"Where is Meng Tian?!"
Upon hearing this, Meng Tian immediately stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and bowed his eyes, saying, "Your Majesty!"
"Did you hear what I just said?"
