Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 1191: Chapter 511: Above Lingxiao of the Heavenly Court! (Part 2)

The Immortal of Colossal Spirit spoke with confidence in his eyes.

At this moment.

Wen Zhong of the Thunder Department, Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable, swiftly stepped forward and said loudly, ”Your Majesty! There is still one matter that requires careful consideration in this crusade against the Demon Monkey.”

Wen Zhong spoke with a serious expression, and there was a hint of worry in his tone.

The Jade Emperor turned his gaze to Wen Zhong, his expression calm, asking, ”What do you have to say, Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable? Speak without hesitation.”

”The place where the Demon Monkey resides is not far from the Qin Court, and even closer to Aolai State governed by the Qin Court, just a step away.”

Wen Zhong frowned deeply, his eyes full of concern: ”In terms of territorial division, Huaguo Mountain, where the Demon Monkey is located, falls within the territory of Aolai State of the Qin Court.”

”If not careful, this expedition is very likely to provoke the Qin Court.”

Wen Zhong’s voice was filled with worry, as he knew well the power of the Qin Court. The Heavenly Court had clashed with the Qin Court several times, suffering great losses each time, so he had to be cautious.

Upon hearing the words ”Qin Court”!

The faces of the numerous Immortals and Gods who only thought of gaining Qi Fortune and Merit Points instantly changed.

In their minds, the Buddhist Sect was the only one capable of rivaling the Heavenly Court in the past.

But since the rise of the Qin Court, even the Buddhist Sect seemed less daunting, and the Qin Court had become the greatest threat to the Heavenly Court.

Moreover, in the clashes with the Qin Court, the Heavenly Court had suffered heavy losses, losing vast tracts of land, and even an entire continent had been seized by the Qin Court.

This matter had long become the laughingstock of the world, yet the Heavenly Court was helpless to do anything about it.

”Although the Demon Monkey’s location is within the Qin Court’s territory, the Qin Court has not exercised actual governance over it.”

The Jade Emperor pondered for a moment and then slowly said, ”Furthermore, the Demon Monkey is located above the East Sea, and the Dragon Clan is a subject of our Heavenly Court, so naturally, the East Sea is also under our jurisdiction.”

”There is no need to worry about the Qin Court on this expedition.”

”Understood.” Wen Zhong respectfully withdrew without saying more.

After all, the Jade Emperor had already made a decision, and he had spoken out of caution only.

”Dragon King, King Qinguang.”

The Jade Emperor’s gaze shifted again to Aoguang and King Qinguang, his expression somewhat gentler: ”Since you have come, have you brought the records of your losses?”

”Replying to Your Majesty.”

Aoguang and King Qinguang answered almost simultaneously, ”We have brought them.”

They spoke without a hint of hesitation, each taking out a jade scroll.

This jade scroll clearly recorded the list of losses they had incurred.

Of course.

It would naturally not be truly accurate.

No matter how much is reported.

All of this is to be footed by the Buddhist Sect.

After all, at this moment, the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, and the Dragon Palace are cooperating with the Buddhist Sect’s plan.

After the impending great disaster, the Buddhist Sect will flourish, and most of the Qi Fortune and Merit Points will belong to them.

So the Buddhist Sect must foot the bill, even if unwilling, they have no other choice.

Otherwise, if the Heavenly Court ceases to cooperate, the Buddhist Sect will be in trouble.

The Jade Emperor nodded slightly, raised his hand, and the two jade scrolls flew directly into his hands.

Taking the jade scrolls, the Jade Emperor’s Divine Thought instantly delved into them, carefully examining them.

Moments later.

The Jade Emperor directly made some modifications to the contents of the jade scrolls with his Divine Thought.

After completion, he handed the jade scrolls to Gold Star Taibai, who was serving by his side.

”Taibai.” The Jade Emperor’s expression was calm, his tone steady: ”On behalf of this Emperor, make a trip to Spirit Mountain. Be sure to inform the Buddhist Sect of our losses, let them determine how to compensate, and let them handle it.”

As the Jade Emperor spoke, an undeniable authority was evident.

”I accept the order.” Gold Star Taibai received the jade scrolls with both hands and respectfully withdrew.

Having instructed these matters, the Jade Emperor then looked again at Aoguang and King Qinguang in the hall, speaking in a gentle tone, ”This Emperor will ensure justice for you. Now that the matter here is done, you may withdraw.”

”Minister bids farewell.”

King Qinguang and Aoguang simultaneously bowed, then slowly exited the great hall.

At this moment.

They knew that this grand drama had temporarily come to an end, and they only needed to await compensation from the Buddhist Sect.

Of course.

This was concerning the Dragon Clan and the Underworld.

”The Immortal of Colossal Spirit.” The Jade Emperor turned his gaze to the Immortal of Colossal Spirit with a serious expression: ”Go to the Dou Department to mobilize troops.”

”For this campaign, ensure you capture the Demon Monkey for this Emperor.”

”Remember, capture only, do not kill.”

”If there is a violation, it will be punished by death without pardon.” The Jade Emperor’s words carried a warning, as he knew the Demon Monkey is now under the protection of the Heavenly Dao, and anyone who kills him will suffer heavenly punishment.

”I accept the order.” The Immortal of Colossal Spirit accepted the command once more and then withdrew with large strides.

In this context.

Every Immortal and God of the Heavenly Court, from the Jade Emperor’s words, understood an essential message: the Demon Monkey must only be captured and not killed.

Anyone who violates this will bear immense cause and effect.

Of course.

In the current situation with an impending great disaster, no one can kill the Demon Monkey, for at this moment, Sun Wukong is under the invisible protection of the Heavenly Dao’s power.

Anyone who dares to intend harm will inevitably face heavenly punishment.

Though the Jade Emperor understood this, he took special efforts to remind everyone to prevent reckless actions.

Within the Heavenly Emperor Palace!

Hao Tian sat on the throne, with his Good Corpse Incarnation connecting their spirits, naturally saw what was happening in the Palace of the Polestar and the contents of the jade scroll.

At this moment.

Hao Tian had a slight cold smile on his face as he said, ”The Underworld and the Dragon Clan are not foolish.”

”The lists in their jade scrolls are exaggerated by at least several times, obviously understanding this is a good opportunity to take advantage of the Buddhist Sect.”

Hao Tian spoke with a hint of schadenfreude.

”Although the Underworld’s soul hooking was instigated by the Buddhist Sect, the Underworld is not a subordinate of the Buddhist Sect, nor truly a vassal of our Heavenly Court.”

The Turquoise Pool, dressed in a luxurious palace robe, slowly said, ”The Underworld suffered the greatest loss this time, how could they let such an opportunity pass easily.”

”As for the Dragon Clan, they have always been shrewd, adept at seizing opportunities to gain benefits.”

The Turquoise Pool spoke with disdain, seeing through the behaviors of the Dragon Clan and the Underworld.

”The upcoming great disaster, and for the grand flourishing and the Qi Fortune and Merit Points.”

Hao Tian laughed coldly, with a mocking tone in the laughter: ”The Buddhist Sect has been preparing for countless years, especially the Tathagata, who might continue to hold the position of the Buddha if he can wholly utilize this great disaster.”

”So no matter the cost, the Tathagata will grit his teeth and endure.”

Hao Tian was well aware of the Buddhist Sect’s intentions, knowing the Tathagata would certainly endure for the benefit of the Buddhist Sect and for his own benefits.

”It’s a pity.” The Turquoise Pool sighed slightly, with disappointment: ”Merit Points and Qi Fortune will only be granted by the Heavenly Dao after the great disaster.”

”If they could be granted now, it might help restore my husband’s injuries and enhance the Heavenly Court’s strength.”

The Turquoise Pool was very concerned about Hao Tian’s injuries, as the burden of the Heavenly Court now rested on her, while Hao Tian needed healing, leaving her with no choice.

”It’s alright.” Hao Tian said in a deep voice: ”I can wait. Though the great disaster is yet to arrive, we still have time to prepare.”

”As long as we can seize the opportunity during the great disaster, the Heavenly Court will still be the Master of Heaven and Earth in the future.”

”After all, the teacher is also about to return.”

Mentioning his teacher, this was Hao Tian’s greatest reliance.

”Husband can wait.” The Turquoise Pool slightly frowned, with a serious expression, ”But the Qin Court might not be so idle.”

”I am most worried about the Qin Court, compared to which the Buddhist Sect is relatively insignificant.”

”The Qin Court is ambitious, their strength is continually increasing, if they cause trouble during the great disaster, we will be in trouble.”

”With the great disaster approaching, they should act with caution, right?” Hao Tian was also worried, yet he was helpless.

At the same time.

In his heart, there was a strong regret: ”Back then, it was all my fault for falling into the Qin Court’s trick,”

”coveting the Hongmeng Purple Qi.”

”If it weren’t for that, I could have destroyed the Qin Court then, and wouldn’t have left such a great menace, now constantly under their control.”

Hao Tian recalled falling into a trap back then, full of self-reproach.

”Husband, there’s no need to bring this up now.” The Turquoise Pool gently consoled: ”The past cannot be changed, we should focus on the future.”

”The immediate priority is to deal with the impending great disaster and the possible actions of the Qin Court.”
