Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 505
Chapter 503: Three Hunyuan Wuliang Immortals
“Thank you, Human Emperor, for saving my life. Congratulations on capturing the Celestial Immortal-level Outer Realm Demon.” Tianming Daoist and the others bowed in unison.
Tianming Daoist was respectful, his heart pounding. He hadn’t expected even the terrifying Celestial Immortal to be no match for Jiang Li, and his awe for Jiang Li intensified.
The Human Emperor was invincible.
The Honghu High Envoy was bewildered. What on earth was an Outer Realm Demon? He didn’t know how he had become one.
If anyone the Honghu High Envoy hated the most right now, High Envoy Duye would be at the top of the list.
The appearance of a Golden Immortal in Jiuzhou was a truly groundbreaking event, proving that Jiuzhou could bypass immortal power and directly achieve immortality, erasing the superiority of the Immortal Realm.
This person was likely a genius cultivator. He had cultivated for thousands of years to become a Golden Immortal. Given a few thousand more, wouldn’t he have achieved Primordial Immortal status?
For this reason alone, High Envoy Duye would be dead without a burial place!
If he brought this news back, he would surely be highly praised by his superiors.
The premise is that he can be brought back.
When the Honghu Envoy discovered he was in Jiang Li’s hands, he didn’t even have the nerve to commit suicide.
The power gap was despairing.
Jiang Li grabbed the Honghu Envoy by the ankle and said, “Daoist Tianming, you stay here to deal with this world. I will take this outer demon back.”
“As you command,”
Ta Shanshi said, approaching Jiang Li and whispering, “Human Emperor, this outer demon says I was forged by the Penglai Envoy, who bestowed me upon Penglai Fairy Island.”
The founder of Penglai Fairy Island is known as the Penglai Immortal, a celestial immortal.
Ta Shanshi hesitated, “Could it be that the so-called outer demon…”
Jiang Li gave Ta Shanshi a meaningful look. “You are a clever stone. You should know that there are things you can and cannot say.”
Ta Shanshi was stunned, then suddenly understood a lot.
“Yes, I know nothing.”
Jiang Li was also helpless. Now was not the time to reveal the outer demon’s true identity. Although his power now surpassed that of the Heavenly Dao, for the cultivators of Jiuzhou, they estimated Jiang Li’s strength to be at the level of a celestial immortal to a golden immortal. If
everyone were told now that the enemy was actually the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Dao, Nine Provinces would likely be thrown into chaos.
It wasn’t possible to claim that Jiang Li could easily defeat an Earth Immortal-level extraterritorial demon, and the cultivators would think Jiang Li was even stronger than the Heavenly Dao.
That wasn’t realistic.
If such blind worship of him were to occur, it
would be Jiang Li’s turn to suffer. Blind worship is not a good thing.
…
“Immortal Elder, I admit my mistake. My Mahayana stage is fake.” Jiang Li sincerely apologized to Immortal Elder Changcun.
“What’s wrong?” Immortal Elder Changcun was puzzled.
“You said that Mahayana cultivators could withstand thirty attacks from a Celestial Immortal without dying, but a Celestial Immortal couldn’t withstand a single blow from me.”
Jiang Li brought the dead Honghu Upper Envoy over.
“…”
Before Jiang Li appeared, Immortal Elder Changcun was concerned that his fabricated Mahayana stage was too strong; few believed it.
After Jiang Li appeared, he realized that his imagination couldn’t keep up with the strength of the Mahayana stage.
What kind of rubbish Mahayana stage was it that could withstand thirty attacks from a Celestial Immortal without dying?
“Huang Changcun, the last disciple of Daozu Zhongshi, I can’t believe you’re still alive!” The envoy on Honghu Lake was stunned upon seeing Changcun Xianweng.
“But you’re still only an Earthly Immortal now, truly insignificant.”
He had assumed Daozu and his three corpses’ disciples had perished in the immortal realm, but he hadn’t expected one to slip through the net in Jiuzhou.
The immortal realm held Daozu in high esteem, after all, as the most powerful Hunyuan Wuji Immortal. They held Daozu’s disciples in low regard. Could anyone, no matter how powerful, surpass Daozu, or defy the heavens?
If there were any that slipped through the net, let them slip through, waiting for the final reckoning.
“Who are you?” Changcun Xianweng leaped to his feet. He sensed a familiar aura, but couldn’t place it.
And that power fluctuation… that was a Celestial Immortal!
Jiang Li had quietly and suddenly captured a Celestial Immortal alive.
“Jiang Li, why did you call us here so mysteriously?”
Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin arrived at Fengji Cave together when Jiang Li suddenly summoned them, without explaining the reason.
Yu Yin had just returned from studying Confucianism and was on her way back when Jiang Li stopped her.
“Nothing, just capturing a Celestial Immortal.”
“I thought it was something else, but it turns out it’s a Celestial Immortal… What the hell?” Bai Hongtu, previously languid, suddenly became serious.
The Honghu Envoy ignored the two mere Tribulation Crossing juniors and chuckled, “Who am I? I’m Bingpo, and now everyone calls me the Honghu Envoy.”
“You’re the Frost Giant who listened to the Celestial Immortal’s explanation of the formation with me!”
Immortal Changcun finally reconciled the Honghu Envoy with the Bingpo Immortal he remembered.
“How did you become like this? Your aura, bloodline, appearance… it’s all different!” Immortal Changcun was puzzled.
“After the Heavenly Dao generated spiritual intelligence, the celestial beings who submitted to it all underwent such changes. Many people changed their names to bid farewell to their past selves.”
“For example, I used to be the Bingpo Immortal, and now I’m the Honghu Envoy.”
The Honghu Envoy sneered, “You’re really lucky. You stayed in Jiuzhou when the Heavenly Dao generated spiritual intelligence. If you were in the fairy world, you would have become part of those monsters without spiritual intelligence.”
Jiang Li kicked the Honghu Envoy to the ground and said coldly, “Show some respect to the Immortal Elder.”
“I ask, you answer.”
“Who is the Duye Envoy? What is the current structure of the fairy world, and who commands the fairies?”
The Honghu Envoy seemed to have heard a huge joke: “I’m already a prisoner, and you’re still pretending to be me. Don’t you know that bastard Duye? Then how did you get all this cultivation?”
“I should have known this long ago. He’s the first Bai Ze Emperor of your Jiuzhou world, secretly defying Heaven’s will and siding with you!”
“I used to think he was resourceful and ruthless, but I never expected him to be short-sighted and indecisive.”
Immortal Changcun sighed. “Sure enough, the Grand Envoy of Duye is the first Bai Ze Emperor.”
Ever since Jiang Li showed him a drop of Duye’s blood, he’d harbored suspicions.
Now, his suspicions had come true, a reality he hadn’t wanted to see.
The first Bai Ze Emperor, a righteous cultivator with a heart for all demons, had become a figure of the righteous. How could he now be the Grand Envoy of Duye?
And then there’s Bingpo. Though they hadn’t met much, he knew he leaned toward the righteous path and wasn’t one for indiscriminate killing. How could he have become the executioner, the Grand Envoy of Honghu?
The Honghu envoy, unaware of the Immortal Elder’s thoughts, continued, “Du Ye and I are both under the management of the Golden Immortal, the Netherfire Immortal Lord. Du Ye is a Half-Step Golden Immortal and serves as the Netherfire Immortal Lord’s deputy.”
“There are dozens of Golden Immortals like the Netherfire Immortal Lord.”
“Above the Golden Immortals are the three Hunyuan Wuliang Immortals who oversee eternity: the Buddha, the Yuanzu, and the Immortal Emperor.”
Everyone was familiar with the names of these three. Before the creation of the Immortal Ladder, there were five Hunyuan Wuliang Immortals: the Daozu, the Buddha, the Confucian Sage, the Yuanzu, and the Immortal Emperor.
The Daozu was the oldest, and the Immortal Emperor the youngest.
“Above these three is the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao—the Divine Treasure Venerable.”
