Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 662

Chapter 660: Just a Troublemaker from the Lower Realm

Realm, the Golden Palace of Clouds.

The Immortal Emperor enjoyed playing chess, carefully considering every move. Fifteen days had passed, and he had already played five games.

“Lu Wu, you’ve lost again. Your chess skills have declined compared to before. I see you’re uneasy. What’s on your mind?” the Immortal Emperor said calmly.

“With your majesty’s divine power in front of me, Lu Wu can’t help but feel a little nervous.”

The Immortal Emperor laughed: “Okay, just say whatever you want to say, why bother to flatter me like this.”

“Your majesty is wise, every word I said is true, I dare not say a single word falsely, but I have recently discovered some clues. If I follow up, it may disturb your majesty’s holy mind.”

“Speak, I will pardon you.”

Seeing that Lu Wu was still hesitant, the Immortal Emperor pretended to be furious: “If you don’t say it again, I will punish you for deceiving the monarch!”

Lu Wu knelt on the ground hurriedly: “I am afraid that there may be a problem in the Jiuzhou world that the Immortal Lord Netherfire is in charge of.”

The Jiuzhou world is the training ground for one of the three corpses of the Taoist ancestors and the strongest world outside the fairy world. After Jiuzhou ascended, the immortals banded together and it was a considerable force. Based on the above reasons, the Immortal Emperor also knew a thing or two about Jiuzhou.

“I have received intelligence that a prototype of the Heavenly Dao may have appeared in the Nine Provinces. The Netherfire Immortal Lord has concealed this information from the Holy One and has not reported it.”

The Immortal Emperor’s eyes shone golden as he asked sternly, “Is this true?”

“I am investigating.”

“If you have any information, please inform me immediately.”

Originally, the Immortal Emperor did not want anything to happen to the Netherfire Immortal Lord, but if a prototype of the Heavenly Dao appeared in the Nine Provinces, then no matter how much he tried to protect him, it would be impossible.

This was Venerable Shenzang’s great taboo. The Immortal

Emperor sighed, “If the Dao Ancestor had not crushed all the Heavenly Dao ladders, the Heavenly Dao’s control over the heavens and myriad realms would have been drastically reduced, and

we wouldn’t have been unaware of the emergence of Heavenly Dao prototypes in other worlds.” Lu Wu echoed, “Indeed, if the Heavenly Dao ladders still existed, our Heavenly Dao would be the only one, and it would be impossible for other worlds to give rise to the Heavenly Dao.”

Constructing the Heavenly Dao ladder requires a vast supply of rare materials and immortals mastering various special skills.

Currently, rare materials are in short supply, and the numerous immortals with special skills who perished during the Celestial Civil War have rendered the construction of the Heavenly Dao impossible.

Of course, if they truly wanted to create some, they could, but it would be a drop in the bucket compared to the sheer number of the universe.

Lu Wu knelt on the ground, looked up, and tentatively asked, “Your Excellency is still in seclusion?”

The Immortal Emperor nodded. “Your Excellency is still calculating the time and location of the disaster, ensuring that the Immortal Realm is the last to face it.”

“From the initial prediction of a disaster within 20,000 years to within a hundred years, as time draws closer, the results of your calculations are getting closer and closer to the truth.”

“But it’s not enough, far from enough,”

Lu Wu asked cautiously. “I wonder what exactly this disaster is…”

The Immortal Emperor’s immortal eyes glared, emanating the aura of a dominating emperor, terrifying Lu Wu. “Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t ask.”

The Immortal Emperor had ruled the Immortal Realm for countless years, and now, under the guidance of the Heavenly Dao, his control had reached its peak. A single glance, a single gesture from him could determine the life or death of an immortal.

The true nature of the disaster was known only to the Hunyuan Wuji Immortal; even the Golden Immortals, closest to the pinnacle of power, were denied the right to know.

Lu Wu tried to learn, but received no information.

The communication talisman in Lu Wu’s sleeve lit up. He had set it up specifically to ensure he could receive news from Ying Zhao and the other two as quickly as possible.

“Your Majesty, I am a subordinate assigned to Jiuzhou.” In front of the Immortal Emperor, Lu Wu didn’t dare answer the talisman.

“Please answer it.”

“Yes.”

“Lord Lu Wu, it is certain that the embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao has been born in Jiuzhou, and the Human Emperor is the spokesperson for this embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao.”

Ying Zhao’s first words brought Lu Wu good news, and in front of the Immortal Emperor.

How can you, the Netherfire Immortal Lord, turn the tables this time!

“Wait, who’s behind you?”

Lu Wu spotted someone behind Ying Zhao and struck with a clean, decisive blow, dispatching two Celestial Immortals in two decisive blows.

A Golden Immortal!

Only a Golden Immortal could easily slay a Celestial Immortal!

The gap between a Celestial Immortal and a Golden Immortal is as vast as the difference between heaven and earth. While a Celestial Immortal might survive a Half-Step Golden Immortal, a Golden Immortal, even one in its early stages, would be powerless.

The veins of Jiuzhou had forged a remarkable being!

“My name is Jiang Li. I’m the Human Emperor you’re looking for. Are you Lu Wu, the Immortal Lord? Since you’re called an Immortal Lord, you must be a Golden Immortal. This is the first time I’ve seen a living Golden Immortal.” The man named Jiang Li smiled, showing no fear of Lu Wu.

“People from the lower realm, don’t make a mistake. If you let go of Ying Zhao, tie your own hands and feet, and come to the Immortal Realm to apologize, the Immortal Realm will show mercy and spare your life.”

“Spare my life?” Jiang Li sneered, murderous intent in his eyes. “That should be me who says that. Your Immortal Realm destroyed the heavens and myriad realms, your crimes are unforgivable. When I go to the Immortal Realm to settle the accounts, you don’t ask me to spare your lives.”

“If you’re not afraid of death, come to Jiuzhou.”

Jiang Li gave a mocking smile and hung up the communication talisman.

“Asshole!” Lu Wu was furious. He had never seen such an arrogant person from the lower realm. In the Immortal Realm, even the Golden Immortals were polite to him.

“Human Emperor Jiang Li, right? That’s a good title. Emperor of Domination is also reasonable, my dear Lu Wu, don’t you agree?”

The Immortal Emperor smiled. The power displayed by Jiang Li was not enough for him to regard as an opponent. He

was just a troublemaker in the lower realm.

The Immortal Emperor’s words brought Lu Wu back to reality. He realized that this was the Golden Palace of Clouds, not his Kunlun Hill.

“Your Majesty, this person has such power, it must be due to the blessing of the prototype of the Heavenly Dao. I will go to Jiuzhou to capture this person and show the power of my Heavenly Court.” Lu Wu made amends and took the initiative to ask for the order.

“Your Majesty, the Immortal Lord of Hell Fire requests to see you.” The Immortal Emperor’s guards delivered the message.

“Let him in.”

The Netherfire Immortal Lord glanced at his lackey Lu Wu from the corner of his eye, but ignored him, continuing his respectful work report as usual.

He believed that as long as he did his job well, even if Lu Wu had a thousand mouths, he wouldn’t throw dirty water at him.

The Netherfire Immortal Lord frequently reported, not out of pleasure, but because he knew the Immortal Emperor’s intense need for control. Even if he reported to the Immortal Emperor repeatedly, even if he annoyed him, it was still better than just reporting a few times.

Cultivating to the Golden Immortal level meant possessing a unique way of dealing with the world.

After listening to the report, the Immortal Emperor chuckled and said, “Netherfire, you remain as diligent as ever, but even the most conscientious can make mistakes. I just learned that there seems to be a minor problem in the Jiuzhou world you’re responsible for. It seems that the embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao has appeared.”

“Well, you and Lu Wu will go to Jiuzhou to investigate.”

Lu Wu was startled. How could he not understand the Immortal Emperor’s meaning? Jiang Li’s presence proved the existence of the embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao, yet the Immortal Emperor used the word “seemingly” to describe it, not conclusively.

This meant that the Netherfire Immortal Lord would deal with the Heavenly Dao Embryo, making a major issue smaller and a minor one less.

The Netherfire Immortal Lord was indeed a major threat to him.

The Netherfire Immortal Lord’s eyes narrowed, revealing a murderous aura.

The appearance of the Heavenly Dao Embryo in Jiuzhou must have been caused by something going wrong with Du Ye.

However, the most important thing now wasn’t to punish Du Ye, but to deal with the Heavenly Dao Embryo as soon as possible.

“To be on the safe side, I’ll send two more people to assist you.”

The Immortal Emperor dispatched four Golden Immortals to Jiuzhou to deal with the Heavenly Dao Embryo.
