Chapter 782 - - Kill multiple birds with one stone

—————✧✧✧✧—————

“Yes,” the Demon Kings responded.

“Elder, how can we rescue my many disciples who have been taken to the Heavenly Court by Xianyou True Monarch?” Emperor Donghua asked anxiously.

Centuries of friendship could not be simply let go.

Moreover, they formed the basis of all his power; abandoning them would leave him completely alone.

“We must definitely rescue them. The inheritance of the Human Emperor places great emphasis on unity, on not abandoning anyone who follows us; only then can everyone’s strength coalesce,” Duge said with a smile, “Holy Friend Donghua, do not panic. A day in the heavens is a hundred days on Earth. They won’t be harmed in just a short while.

Moreover, the Immortal Court’s troop movements are not so swift; perhaps by the time they are ready, we will already have the capacity to assault the Heavenly Court.”

“I hope so,” Emperor Donghua said somewhat desolately as he nodded.

“King, you should discuss with the Immortal Life Buddha on how to deal with the Heavenly Court’s forces,” Duge turned to Bai Da, “I will return to the Eastern Polar Continent with Daoist Eastern Radiance, as it is the base of the Human Emperor’s inheritance and must not encounter any mishaps. I will return when the great battle commences.”

“You just go, Elder,” Bai Da said confidently with a smile, “The Demon Clan has contended with the Immortal Court for thousands of years without falling behind. Even without you, if Xianyou True Monarch dares to come, he will not return.”

“In that case, I am relieved,” Duge said with a smile as he nodded and turned to Emperor Donghua, “Let’s go, Daoist Eastern Radiance, follow me back to the Eastern Polar Continent.”

Having enhanced his cultivation level twice in Mount Sumeru and Qingqiu, Duge’s spiritual power soared past four hundred million.

His sensory range extended tens of thousands of miles, and his mastery over divine power became even more proficient.

Since he had not engaged in real combat, Duge did not yet know the full extent of his cultivation level.

But his speed of travel had more than doubled, and in an instant, he had brought Emperor Donghua back from Qingqiu to Mount Sumeru.

…

Mount Sumeru.

The Longevity Emperor was very calm about the campaign against the Immortal Court; indeed, this was within everyone’s expectations.

Being a battle-capable Daluo Golden Immortal, commanding countless strong forces, and having allied with the Demon Clan, he was not afraid of the Heavenly Court at all.

If he could withstand the early battles, then the foundation of Buddhism would be considered stable.

Otherwise, those who believed in Buddhism would inevitably become anxious.

…

After lifting the restrictions on Alien Warriors in the Southern Zen Region, Mount Sumeru gained three more Alien Warriors.

They had come voluntarily to support Emperor Donghua, pursuing a path of seeking fortune amidst danger.

Duge’s influence was incredibly vast, and now the warriors of the Alien Battlefield bore somewhat of his mark.

One warrior from Sirius was named Lou Yuxian, known for his devotedness, with no awakened skills but an awakened Literary Heart;

Another from Water Blue Star was called Wang Weichun, keying on restriction, awoken with a skill called “Three Chapters of the Pact.” Anyone who entered an agreement with him could not breach the terms and conditions. Violators would be unconditionally punished by the enforcing party;

The last one from Qiyuan Star was called Qi Wei, keying on healing, with an awakened skill called “Spring Breeze.” Whenever she used this skill, all negative conditions were cleared;

…

The global situation was changed by Duge.

The Alien Warriors, previously hidden, had emerged one by one under the push of an elimination system, each seeking opportunities for growth.

But currently, they were too far behind Duge in rank. Even if they followed Duge, they could hardly be of any help.

Thus, Duge simply let them grow wildly, and didn’t even meet them face-to-face, including the Alien Warrior from Qiyuan Star.

After converging the Dragon Vein, representing the destiny of the Human Race, onto his body, Duge felt as if his mental state was no longer affected by negative conditions.

This was advantageous for him, but it also made Duge wary.

“Tirelessly Ruinous” was also a mental skill. If he could use the destiny of the Human Race to shield against similar skills,

Then others at the Quasi-Saint level, like the Immortal Emperor, Queen Mother of the West, and Underworld Emperor, would likely also be unaffected by similar skills.

He could not afford to rely on luck, using his skills to influence everything.

…

After informing the Longevity Emperor of his whereabouts,

Duge took Emperor Donghua back to the Eastern Polar Continent, boldly revealed their presence, and without further ado, seized the two Heavenly Masters from the New Moon Kingdom’s Capital City.

Just as Emperor Donghua had effortlessly taken him from the Jinluan Hall,

In just over a fortnight, the two Heavenly Immortal Heavenly Masters were like children in Duge’s grasp, completely at his mercy.

Duge’s cultivation had skyrocketed, and his understanding of various art techniques was perfectly natural.

The covering formation over the Capital City’s skies was virtually non-existent to Duge.

Should he wish, his perception could instantly permeate through the gaps in the formation or even dissolve it directly.

The two Heavenly Masters had nowhere to hide.

Seeing Emperor Donghua and Duge, dressed as the Human Emperor, the two Heavenly Masters turned pale and tremblingly saluted, “Xu Wen’an (Zhang Qing) have seen the Human Emperor, seen Emperor Donghua.”
