Chapter 2025: Chapter 1079: Undercurrents
The messenger from Golden Turtle Island is not just visiting the Divine Capital, but none of the Dharma Body masters from the Seven Overseas Realms and Twenty-Eight Islands can escape.
Yuan Hong had no backing, and his foundation was shallow. In the past, his indecisiveness led to him missing opportunities to be accepted by those from the Other Shore, be it the Demon Emperor, Demon Saint, or the Saint of the Jie Sect.
Yet, Yuan Hong is still a top-notch Creation Strong Person. His Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill has reached perfection, not inferior to Yang Jian.
Creation Powers, even if they are not skilled in deducing the Heavenly Secret, have no problem locking onto the positions of many Dharma Bodies and delivering invitations...
However, just as the Dharma Bodies from various places received these invitations and felt different emotions,
In the direction of the Divine Capital, the Emperor, who had been silent for many years, issued a new decree, announcing to the world.
On the same day as the Golden Turtle Island banquet invitation, a Gathering of Immortals will also be held in the Divine Capital, inviting Dharma Bodies from all over the world, and representatives from major noble families and sects will arrive.
This timing and announcement, like a sword’s point against a spear’s tip, clearly targeted the invitation by the messenger from Golden Turtle Island!
Righteous Path Dharma Bodies, such as Lu Da, He Qi, Kong Wen, and Chong He, were somewhat helpless regarding the invitation from the Heavenly Immortal and felt the ominous nature of the inviter.
Yet, facing the Heavenly Immortals, they were under significant pressure.
Just as they hesitated, contemplating when to discuss a countermeasure, Tao Yu’s decree arrived just in time!
And Tao Yu’s act of overpowering the Heavenly Immortal messenger was done in plain sight, witnessed by everyone in the Divine Capital.
Whether it was scouts inserted in place or any intelligence organization, the relevant information had long spread!
"Overpowering a Heavenly Immortal, that’s impressive."
Mr. Lu Da is a typical case of slow and steady wins the race. Though he was not particularly outstanding in talent, through his unique ability of ’Concentration,’ he is now one of the highest in the Current World’s Realm, besides Tao Yu.
Like Su Wuming, he already displayed some legendary features during his Dharma Body period.
"Since the Emperor has spoken, it naturally warrants a response."
Mr. Lu Da was decisive, and Huamei Manor immediately announced to the world that he would arrive on time!
As for Golden Turtle Island, apologies will have to be made!
Even if there are possibly stronger individuals behind Golden Turtle Island, the Heavenly Immortal envoy they sent is just the tip of the iceberg.
Even if he is uncertain whether this Emperor can withstand the pressure,
Since the reigning Emperor has chosen this way, he signifies his support!
"The changes since the Emperor ascended to the throne are visible to the naked eye. Regardless of whether there’s some ancient figure sleeping behind Golden Turtle Island, or any Great Power, they never appeared before but now want to command the heroes upon emergence; that simply won’t do..."
...
Over at the Chunyang Sect, Chong He, with Tao Yu’s help, has now recovered considerably from the backlash of the Six Paths Master.
Back then, his True Spirit was indeed on the Investiture of the Gods list. By defying the task from the Six Paths Master, even a Dharma Body master who mastered the Immortal Slayer Sword Formation was greatly constrained.
He risked his life to refuse that task, yet he suffered near-irreversible injuries, with his True Spirit damaged and his soul torn apart.
Fortunately, he survived temporarily, with Tao Yu aiding him with his own means to support another wave.
But even so, these years he has still primarily focused on healing, now only barely recovering, not nearly in his full prime condition.
On the other side, Kong Wen, who was saved by Tao Yu, naturally ignored Golden Turtle Island’s intimidation and threats as a monk and made a similar statement.
Cui Qinghe, as the only Dharma Body from the noble families, was helped by Tao Yu back then to escape the risk of falling, hence he was the first to show support!
Since Tao Yu ascended the throne, he’s consistently suppressed the noble families in the main direction he grasped.
Yet even so, the Cui Family has always acted as a leading force, weakening themselves along with the family, always being Tao Yu’s loyal subordinates, and this time it was no different!
Subsequently, Su Wuming and finally He Qi made their positions clear, explicitly taking sides.
All Righteous Path Dharma Bodies gathered around Tao Yu to show support!
However, among them, the greatest pressure arguably lies with ’East Sea Sword Manor,’ announced last and closest to the overseas.
The geographic location of ’East Sea Sword Manor,’ seems like a buffer or an outpost between the mainland and the Seven Overseas Realms and Twenty-Eight Islands.
If any issues arise, ’East Sea Sword Manor’ would inevitably be the first to bear the brunt.
Yet despite this, He Qi still boldly announced public support under pressure.
Vaguely, even ordinary people sensed the undercurrents surging at this moment...
...
Before Tao Yu emerged, the top spot on the Heavenly List was long held by Guldo from the Grassland, wielding the Heavenly Punishment Axe, dominating the Grassland, always eyeing the Central Plains.
There were even occasional rumors of Guldo breaking through to the Earth Immortal, about to move southward, and each rumor would cause panic.
But all these came to an end with the grand battle of righteousness and evil above the Divine Capital, where the reigning Emperor emerged out of nowhere!
Though most people never saw Guldo take action, the accomplishments of the reigning Emperor back then are here for all to see, already unanimously recognized as surpassing Guldo!
Thus, during this period, the Grassland also seemed relatively quiet, with no activities at all, as if the former number one on the Heavenly List, now number two, just vanished without a trace.
