Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 769

Chapter 766: Fairly Qualified

The battle between the two Mahayana cultivators was a spectacular spectacle, and countless cultivators looked up to the sky, hoping to see Bai Hongtu one last time.

Bai Hongtu was badly beaten. Nine years of Mahayana cultivation was practically worthless in front of Jiang Li.

“My disciple is incompetent. If it were me, defeating the strong with the weak would be no problem,” Daozu declared confidently.

The Confucian Sage glanced at Daozu, remembering that Daozu had said the same thing during their battle with Venerable Shenzang, who had then struck him dead.

Jiang Li didn’t actually kill him, showing mercy and sparing Bai Hongtu’s life.

“Ouch, it hurts so much…” Bai Hongtu lay on the ground, begging for mercy.

“Let me tell you what I’ve been through these past few years.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Hongtu stopped begging for mercy and quickly recovered from his injuries.

Yu Yin, Immortal Changcun, Fairy Hongchen, the Confucian Sage, and Daozu all gathered around, with the exception of Ji Zhi.

“Forget it. I’ve already heard it once using the Way of Time. I don’t need to hear it again.”

“Go away, who cares if you listen too?” Bai Hongtu shooed Ji Zhi away, urging Jiang Li to speak quickly.

Jiang Li smiled and recounted his experiences over the past nine years, from the First Emperor’s world to the world of the idlers, and then to the many parallel worlds. He

didn’t need any flowery words; simply telling the story was enough to capture everyone’s attention.

“Although the First Emperor still has that arrogant demeanor, his murderous nature has been much less than before. After sending the First Emperor back to his original world, I returned.”

“Your parallel worlds are quite rich. I have every kind of them.” Bai Hongtu expressed great interest in the parallel worlds.

Some Bai Hongtu converted to Buddhism, successfully leading it astray. Others became intellectually deficient Daoist monks, used only to slap people in the face…

“Poor idler, he’s done nothing, pushing me into the position of Acting Emperor in the parallel world. Surely, even now that he’s achieved his wish and become Human Emperor, he’s not happy.”

Yu Yin expressed dissatisfaction with her idler self: “Foolish! For love, you can’t even uphold your true self. How can you possibly achieve long-term immortality?”

Of course, this inevitably brought up the existence of the system.

Bai Hongtu suddenly realized: “I was wondering why you were acting so strangely, constantly visiting secret realms and participating in competitions. Turns out it was all a system task.” Yu

Yin looked at Bai Hongtu in surprise. Wasn’t it common for Jiang Li to go into secret realms under an assumed name and cause trouble? Why did Bai Hongtu find it so strange?

It seemed she still wasn’t in sync with Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu, failing to detect Jiang Li’s unusual behavior.

Keep up the good work.

“I learned from the Tiandao of the parallel world that the system was jointly created by the Tiandao of other worlds, and they specifically gave one to me and the First Emperor. Unfortunately, the timing was wrong.”

While in the parallel world, Jiang Li finally understood who had created the system and who he should thank.

To express his gratitude, Jiang Li didn’t simply annihilate the Tiandao. Instead, he sent the First Emperor into battle, ensuring a spectacular fall.

Daozu pondered for a moment and said, “Interesting. From your description, I have a rough idea of how this works. Rusheng, Wuzhi’s magical powers are limited. Do as I say and see if you can create a simplified version of the system.”

The Rusheng nodded. He, too, was proficient in all the arts of cultivation.

Rather, those who reached the level of Hunyuan Wuji Xian all mastered all the arts of cultivation.

The Rusheng spread ink, transforming it into a law, constantly changing. Eventually, the ink faded, fading into a milky white glow that entered Bai Hongtu’s body.

A voice echoed from Bai Hongtu’s ear.

[Counterattack System activated. Host, do you choose to activate it?]

“Can we defeat Jiang Li?” Bai Hongtu asked excitedly.

[Host chooses not to activate this system. Thank you for using it. See you next time.]

A milky white light left Bai Hongtu’s body cleanly and clearly.

“That’s probably it,” Daozu said. “Is there anyone who wants a system? I’ll have the Confucian Sage build one for you.”

Everyone shook their heads, feeling the system wasn’t very useful.

“Bai Hongtu, you…oh, the counterattack system you want can’t be built by the Confucian Sage.”

“Yuyin, would you like to build a female emperor system?”

Yuyin shook her head.

“Fairy Hongchen, would you like to have the Myriad Worlds Live Broadcasting System?”

Fairy Hongchen also shook her head.

“Jingxin, do you need a love system?”

Saint Jingxin shook her head vigorously, determined to find love through her own efforts.

“Changcun, you…oh, you don’t need one either. Your mouth is more useful than a system.”

Daozu asked around, but no one wanted a system.

The Dao Ancestor muttered unhappily, “It’s such an interesting thing, why doesn’t anyone want it? Forget it, when I get the chance, I’ll build a system and throw it into the myriad realms, let’s see who can get it.”

After recounting the story of the parallel world, Jiang Li stretched and headed for the location of the earth veins.

A vast, blue river surged beneath Jiuzhou. Scooping up a drop of water, one could faintly discern the wishes of the people within.

Not just those of Jiuzhou, but those of the people of all the realms.

“Old buddy, you’ve grown a lot since I first ascended the throne of Human Emperor.”

On the surface, the earth veins only existed in Jiuzhou, but as their spokesperson, Jiang Li knew their state best.

Now, they spanned the boundless void, connecting all the realms.

“The earth veins are no longer Jiuzhou’s, but the earth veins of all the realms.”

As the earth veins grew, they became increasingly ethereal, as if poised to vanish at any moment.

Jiang Li knew this meant the earth veins, the embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao, were transforming into the Heavenly Dao, though the process would be a long one.

In other words, after the earth’s veins have completely transformed, they should be called “humanity.”

Jiang Li sat on the bank, leaning back slightly, his wrists supporting him as he gazed at the earth veins, a faint smile playing on his lips. Through the veins, he seemed to be meeting the Human Emperors of all generations.

“I, the Human Emperor, am quite qualified. The danger from the extraterritorial demons has been eliminated. Jiuzhou is thriving, its overall strength has increased manyfold. The myriad realms have also established diplomatic ties with Jiuzhou, creating a friendly relationship. Order has been established, and the Black Tide is no longer a threat.”

Jiang Li recounted the deeds of the previous Human Emperor, feeling quite satisfied with himself.

Of course, there were some flaws; after all, he was no saint, and there were times when he hadn’t considered things carefully.

“It’s fine, very good. Leave something for the next Human Emperor to do.”

“Emperor Shun, is it time?”

A calm voice came from behind Jiang Li. “Yes, the Black Tide has infiltrated the River of Time.”

The location of the earth veins should only be accessible to the Human Emperor, but in the River of Time, any place is accessible, and no formation or other obstacles can stop it.

“Then let’s go.”

Emperor Shun opened a door and invited Jiang Li in.

Jiang Li once again arrived at the River of Time.

His world wasn’t afraid of the Black Tide threat because Kyushu had done thorough preliminary work. Other parallel worlds didn’t have that kind of preparation. They said they had established order, but whether they could resist the Black Tide remained uncertain.

To be on the safe side, it was best to go to a place where all possibilities converged to resolve the Black Tide.
