Chapter 597 Find a bodyguard for Di Xin!
Haotian's heart clenched violently at Chen Changsheng's casual threat.
Dedicated to Tongtian?
He could almost picture the scene.
Given the Tongtian Sect Leader's unreasonable and overprotective nature, what would he do once he obtained this Primordial Purple Qi?
He would never use it himself, because a sage cannot refine a second one.
He would surely choose one of his most beloved disciples to bestow upon him.
Duobao? Zhao Gongming? Or Yunxiao?
No matter who it is, once the Jie Sect produces another saint, the entire prehistoric world will be completely overturned.
Two saints from one family—what a terrifying concept!
At that time, what will the Chan Sect be worth?
What are the two Western Saints compared to him?
Chen Changsheng's move was like having Haotian's lifeline in his grasp!
Looking at Chen Changsheng's calm face, he realized for the first time that this nephew-in-law he had watched grow up had become a monster he could not understand at all.
His scheming, his methods, and his boldness far exceeded the scope expected of a quasi-saint.
"call……"
Haotian exhaled a long breath, as if he wanted to expel all the pent-up frustration, anger, and resentment in his heart.
When he looked up again, his eyes had changed.
All emotions had been suppressed, leaving only a resolute determination to burn one's bridges.
"Okay! I promise you!"
Haotian spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice not loud, yet as heavy as Mount Tai, echoing in the empty Lingxiao Palace.
"From this day forward, during the Investiture of the Gods calamity, all mobilization of the Heavenly Court's troops, including the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, will be subject to your orders as the Enforcer of the Heavenly Decree!"
"The allocation of all the divine positions on the Investiture of the Gods will also be decided by your single word!"
He's staked the entire future of the Heavenly Court on this incredible gamble!
I bet Chen Changsheng will win!
He's betting on himself; he could win a saintly future!
Chen Changsheng smiled, a very happy smile.
It became.
He knew that from the moment Haotian uttered those words, the most important piece in the Three Realms had been firmly grasped in his hands.
With the Heavenly Court as his sharpest weapon, his subsequent plans will be a hundred times more successful.
"Uncle is wise."
Chen Changsheng bowed to Haotian with sincere respect.
This time, the way he called me "uncle" sounded more intimate than ever before.
Haotian waved his hand; he wasn't in the mood to care about such titles. His gaze was fixed intently on Chen Changsheng's hand, the meaning of which was self-evident.
"Where are the things?"
Chen Changsheng stopped keeping him hanging. He had already achieved his purpose in coming here, and there was no need to create any more trouble.
He flipped his palm, and the primordial, dark yellow energy reappeared.
The supreme aura of the Great Dao instantly filled the entire Lingxiao Palace once again.
Haotian's breathing became heavy once again.
that's it!
This is the thing that has haunted his dreams for countless years!
Chen Changsheng looked at him, who seemed eager to pounce on him immediately, and flicked his finger.
Whoosh!
That wisp of primordial purple energy, enough to drive the entire prehistoric world mad, floated lightly, like an ordinary stream of light, towards Haotian.
Haotian was so frightened that his soul almost left his body. Almost instinctively, he used all his magical power to condense a huge magical hand, and carefully, as if holding a precious treasure, gently held the purple aura.
He didn't even dare to touch it directly with his hands, for fear that he might accidentally break it.
When that warm, smooth touch, imbued with boundless Daoist charm, came from the palm of his magical power, Haotian's entire body trembled slightly.
it is true!
It truly is primordial purple energy!
He held the purple aura up to his eyes, turning it over and over in his gaze, looking as if he were a beggar who had suddenly received a mountain of gold.
Achieving sainthood is within reach!
I, Haotian, have finally waited for this day!
The pent-up frustration of countless years and the humiliation of being suppressed by the sage seemed to find an outlet at this moment.
His eyes were actually a little moist.
Chen Changsheng looked at his distraught appearance without feeling the slightest bit moved.
"Uncle, the deal has been struck, and Changsheng will not stay any longer."
He cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, then turned to leave.
"etc!"
Haotian suddenly called out to him.
Chen Changsheng turned around, somewhat puzzled.
Is this old fox planning to back out?
Haotian carefully absorbed the Primordial Purple Qi into the depths of his primordial spirit, wrapping it with layers of magical power before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
He looked at Chen Changsheng, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"You...are you really going to take that path?"
He still couldn't quite believe that anyone could resist the temptation of becoming a saint.
Chen Changsheng smiled.
"I will walk my own path."
He didn't explain much, but simply left Haotian with a carefree and resolute back view. With one step, his figure disappeared into the Lingxiao Palace.
Haotian was left alone, standing in the empty hall, feeling the new power deep within his primordial spirit, speechless for a long time.
After a long while, he suddenly clenched his fist.
"Issue my decree!"
"Heavenly Court, enter highest alert!"
An unprecedented domineering aura erupted from the Heavenly Emperor, who had endured countless years of hardship!
The entire Heavenly Court is about to undergo a major change.
After leaving the Lingxiao Palace, Chen Changsheng was in high spirits.
Having dealt with Haotian, the biggest variable, his subsequent plans were already halfway to success.
The Primordial Purple Qi was indeed a hot potato for him.
Just as he told Haotian, he wanted to prove his Dao through force, and keeping this thing would only shake his Dao heart.
More importantly, this thing is produced by the system. Who knows if it's any different from the ones issued by Dao Ancestor Hongjun? What if it's a trap?
He didn't want to gamble his future on something so uncertain.
Now look at this! By using something he doesn't need, he's gained the full support of the entire Heavenly Court. This deal is incredibly profitable.
He hummed a little tune as he made his way back to the Temple of the Law Enforcement God.
As soon as I entered, I saw Kong Xuan sitting cross-legged on a blue stone, closing his eyes and regulating his breathing.
Five-colored divine light flowed around him, and his aura was as solid as a mountain. Clearly, in a place as rich in spiritual energy as the Law Enforcement Heavenly God Temple, his cultivation had improved again.
Sensing Chen Changsheng's presence, Kong Xuan slowly opened his eyes.
His naturally proud phoenix eyes now held a hint of genuine respect when he looked at Chen Changsheng.
He witnessed the battle in the chaotic space firsthand.
This young god's methods, strength, and intellect all made this long-established quasi-saint feel terrified.
"grown ups."
Kong Xuan stood up and nodded slightly to Chen Changsheng.
"Stop sitting there, pack your things, and come with me to the mortal realm."
Chen Changsheng waved his hand and said directly.
Kong Xuan was taken aback.
"The lower realm? Where to go?"
"The human realm, the Great Merchant."
Chen Changsheng's words were concise and to the point.
Kong Xuan's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.
The human realm?
"My lord, the great calamity has begun, and the human realm is at the center of this calamity. If we descend to the mortal realm now, I'm afraid..."
He wasn't afraid; he just felt there was no need to get involved in that karma.
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm going to go to the heart of this chaos and turn it upside down!"
Chen Changsheng looked at him and laughed, "What's wrong? You're not happy about protecting someone?"
Protector?
Kong Xuan was even more bewildered.
He, the son of Yuan Feng, the first peacock in the world, a quasi-saint, is being asked to be a bodyguard for a mortal?
If this gets out, won't Kong Xuan have any face left?
"My lord, it's not that I'm unwilling, it's just..."
"There's nothing to it," Chen Changsheng interrupted him directly. "The person I need you to protect is the current Human Emperor, and also my disciple."
"He is the one destined to face this great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods."
"If you stay by his side, you'll definitely reap the benefits."
Chen Changsheng patted him on the shoulder, with an expression that said, "I'm giving you an incredible opportunity."
Kong Xuan looked at Chen Changsheng and fell silent.
Human Emperor?
The one destined for calamity?
Although he was arrogant, he wasn't stupid. He instantly understood the significance of the situation.
This is no longer a simple bodyguard mission; it requires him to directly participate in the game of the great calamity, and to stand at the very center of the storm!
The risks are enormous, but as Chen Changsheng said, the opportunities are equally enormous.
Protecting the one who is destined to face the calamity during a great eon is itself an immense act of merit. If successful, the benefits he receives will be beyond imagination.
"Yes, sir."
In the end, Kong Xuan chose to obey.
He's already on Chen Changsheng's ship; it's too late for him to get off now.
"Let's go."
Chen Changsheng nodded in satisfaction, said no more, and transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the outside of the South Heavenly Gate.
Kong Xuan followed closely behind.
The two traversed the thirty-three heavens and entered the human realm.
As soon as they entered, an intense, overwhelming aura of malevolent energy assaulted them.
This aura of calamity was formless and intangible, yet it seemed to carry a chilling coldness that penetrated to the bone, making even a quasi-saint like Kong Xuan feel uneasy.
He subconsciously activated the Five-Colored Divine Light to protect his body, and only then did he feel a little better.
In contrast, Chen Changsheng seemed completely unaffected, letting the calamity energy flow around him. He even reached out and grabbed a wisp of it, playing with it between his fingertips.
"This is really good stuff."
He muttered to himself.
Kong Xuan's lips twitched. He simply couldn't understand how this person's brain circuits worked.
The two moved extremely fast and soon arrived in the skies above Chaoge, the capital of the Shang Dynasty.
From the air, the entire city of Chaoge appears magnificent and imposing.
Visible streams of dark yellow aura rose from the city, converging in the air to form a gigantic black bird totem that blotted out the sky and exuded an aura of dominance that suppressed everything.
However, within this aura of profound yellow fortune, wisps of dark red calamity energy lingered, like a malignant tumor clinging to the bone, constantly eroding the national fortune of the Shang Dynasty.
"Although the nation is at its peak, the calamity has entered its body, and its foundation has been damaged. If it is not curbed, the great edifice will collapse in an instant."
Kong Xuan looked at the scene below and said in a deep voice.
"That's why we came."
Chen Changsheng smiled, and with Kong Xuan in tow, they landed silently on the bustling streets of Chaoge City.
The streets were bustling with people and vehicles, a scene of prosperity.
There was no indication whatsoever that a colossal catastrophe, capable of upending the three realms, was about to unfold here.
Chen Changsheng did not linger on the street; his purpose for this trip was very clear.
He led Kong Xuan straight toward the tallest and most magnificent building in the entire city.
The Royal Palace of the Shang Dynasty.
He was going to see his good apprentice, who had just ascended the throne and hadn't even warmed his seat yet.
The Great Shang Dynasty Royal Palace, the Hall of the Human Emperor.
The newly enthroned Emperor Xin was handling memorials with great enthusiasm.
He was dressed in a black bird-patterned robe and wore a flat-topped crown. His young and heroic face was full of confidence and domineering presence.
Only after becoming the Emperor did he truly experience the feeling of controlling the world.
The boundless national fortune of the Great Shang Dynasty blessed him, causing the "Human Emperor Scripture" within his body to operate wildly. In just a few years, his cultivation level advanced rapidly, transforming him from a mortal prince who wasn't even an immortal into a powerful Golden Immortal!
This rocket-like speed of cultivation filled him with unprecedented confidence in himself and in the future of the Great Shang Dynasty.
He believed that under his leadership, the Shang Dynasty would surpass all previous kings and become the most glorious dynasty in human history!
Just then, a soft footstep sound came from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty, there is an immortal outside who claims to be Chen Changsheng requesting an audience."
A palace attendant respectfully reported this from outside the palace.
Upon hearing this, Di Xin abruptly raised his head from the mountain of memorials, his eyes gleaming with immense joy.
"Teacher? Quick! Please invite the teacher in!"
His voice trembled slightly with excitement.
His feelings for Chen Changsheng were extremely complex.
They were not only teacher and student, but also like father and brother.
His success today can be entirely attributed to this mysterious and unpredictable teacher.
Soon, the palace doors were pushed open.
Two figures walked in, one after the other.
Walking in front was Chen Changsheng.
He remained as calm and collected as ever, as if time had left no trace on him.
"Disciple Di Xin greets Master!"
Di Xin could no longer contain himself. He quickly stepped down from his throne, came before Chen Changsheng, and respectfully performed a grand salute.
Get up.
Chen Changsheng offered a helping hand and helped him up.
He looked his apprentice up and down and nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad, you have the cultivation of a Golden Immortal and a solid foundation. It seems you haven't been slacking off."
"It's all thanks to the teachers' excellent guidance!"
Di Xin scratched his head. In front of Chen Changsheng, he had lost all the majesty of the human emperor and instead resembled a child eager to show off his achievements to his parents.
Di Xin then noticed that there was another person standing behind Chen Changsheng.
The man was dressed in a five-colored feather robe, with a handsome face and a cold and arrogant expression. Just by standing there quietly, he exuded an indescribable sense of oppression, as if he were the center of this great hall.
Di Xin felt a chill run down his spine.
He is now a Golden Immortal, and with the Emperor's fortune protecting him, anyone who can make him feel pressured is no ordinary person.
"Teacher, who is this?"
He asked respectfully.
Chen Changsheng turned to the side and introduced him:
"This is Kong Xuan. From today onwards, he will stay in Chaoge as the Protector of the State of Shang, assisting you in handling some... matters that ordinary people cannot handle."
"Kong Xuan greets the Emperor."
Kong Xuan bowed to Di Xin in a perfunctory manner, which was considered a form of greeting.
For someone of his status to bow to a human emperor was already an immense honor for Chen Changsheng.
