755: Chapter 263: Having Seen the True Form, Why Not Kneel?

[Third Update]_3 755: Chapter 263: Having Seen the True Form, Why Not Kneel?

[Third Update]_3 Fu Yu, who had just sobered up, was sitting in a corner, rubbing his forehead, a sharp glint passing through his eyes.

Wang Shan had received an urgent message conveyed by a Jade Talisman and promptly summoned all the immortals.

The plan was suddenly moved forward, catching Wang Shan somewhat off guard.

In Wang Shan’s recollection, the Heavenly Emperor always acted with thorough planning and would not make a move without full confidence.

Even though the Holy Mother Guiling could suppress the fiends of the Sky Amber Monastery in the Misty Realm, they did not have enough hands to control the entire Misty Realm, hence, without any unexpected circumstances, it’s improbable to take action ahead of schedule.

In other words, it’s possible that the Heavenly Emperor’s side might have already made a move.

For that reason, Wang Shan specially sought advice from Li Dazhi, dispatching an additional Golden Immortal—Linghua from the Cast Cloud Sect—and over a dozen Heavenly Immortals, to rush to the first station beyond the heavens.

Among these dozen plus Heavenly Immortals, there were also several experts from the Heavenly Square Pavilion.

For example, Sun Yingying, who was currently clad in a black long dress, her face veiled, one of the nearest higher-ups from the Heavenly Square Pavilion.

She arrived at the barracks immediately after receiving the summon from the pavilion.

Wang Shan sighed, “The message only had ‘hurry to the Misty Realm,’ five words, we don’t know how things are over there.”

Elder Yansheng spoke in a soothing tone, “Immortal Wang needn’t worry.

The Heavenly Emperor must be unharmed, with the Holy Mother Guiling as his close protector, one of the masters of our time.”

Linghua also said, “Based on my understanding of our Li Ping’an, the Heavenly Emperor, he must have witnessed something that outraged him, which is why he wants us there ahead of time.

Waiting even a few more days would be unbearable.”

“Indeed, that’s the case,” Ye Zisang chuckled, “Our Heavenly Emperor is a person who insists on eliminating evil.

Isn’t it said that the Sky Amber Monastery is filled with numerous demons?”

Sun Yingying said softly, “According to information gathered by the Heavenly Square Pavilion, it seems…

in Xiangtu Country, humans are numerous, and beasts like jackals, tigers, and leopards sit upon the thrones.

Everyone outside the Royal Palace is a servant, and beneath the throne lie nothing but bones.”

“Alas!”

Wang Shan said seriously:

“It’s no use us speculating further; we still have over a dozen hours before we reach the Misty Realm.

Now is the time to achieve great deeds.

It seems there is a major battle ahead!

“Right, let me introduce someone.

This is the Iron General of a Hundred Battles, General Fu Yu, whom His Majesty has been searching for a long time!”

Fu Yu stood up with some restraint, his face taut, and he gestured a salute to all around, who returned the courtesy each in their own way.

In a lower voice, Fu Yu said: “Fu has failed the Human Emperor, but now that I’ve joined the Heavenly Emperor’s ranks, I must devote myself to his service unto death!

By the way, Immortal Wang, does the Heavenly Emperor have any personal guards?

According to the Heavenly Father, I was to train His Majesty’s personal guards.”

“Well…”

Wang Shan appeared slightly embarrassed and nodded towards Gu Qingcheng and the others in the corner.

Clearing his throat, Gu Qingcheng stood up, following the principle not to bring shame upon his brother the Heavenly Emperor.

Accompanied by Chen Ting’er and Yu Yingshu, outfitted in immortal armor, he stepped forward.

“General!

The three of us are His Majesty’s personal guards!”

“And,” Ye Zisang approached and stood next to the three, “I count as well.”

A few more lines creased Fu Yu’s forehead at this.

Wang Shan chuckled, “The Heavenly Emperor has yet to recruit troops, but these four are absolutely trustworthy personal guards of His Majesty!”

“Very well,” Fu Yu nodded and continued, “then I shall first teach you all the art of combat formations!

This way!”

“Yes!”

With a loud shout from Gu Qingcheng, the four of them followed Fu Yu to a corner and sat down together for meditation.

Wang Shan breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He looked through the porthole at the immortal lights flashing by outside, his eyes growing more resolute.

It felt as though he had been given a second lease on life, and the brilliance of this life was about to unfold with the upcoming battle!

General of the Heavenly Emperor, Wang Shan pays his respects!

‘When you encounter those fierce demons later, just shout this!’

…

In the Misty Realm, at the main temple of the Sky Amber Monastery.

The appearance of the old Taoist shrouded in golden light atop the main hall brought temporary peace to all beings present.

Above the main hall, Li Ping’an, who had been sitting cross-legged in contemplation, suddenly had an insight and looked up at the cluster of light red clouds of merit.

“Master, I’ll be back soon.”

“Hm?”

Qing Su turned her head to see Li Ping’an rising to his feet and leaping into the clouds of merit in a fluid motion.

Immortals, demons, humans, spirits, and beings of all kinds could see that the clear sky had suddenly formed a light red vortex.

Within the vortex, a figure stood with his hands behind his back, and opposite him, a cloud surged, quickly solidifying into a colossal seated deity a thousand zhang tall.

The deity was seated with thirty-six arms on his back, and treasure wheels manifested around him.

Then, the deity began to show numerous cracks, and a layer of dry skin flaked off, revealing what looked like real flesh and blood underneath.

“The great god Tian Hu has manifested!”

“The great god Tian Hu has manifested!”

Shadows from every corner of the lesser domains bowed and worshipped this deity.

The deity opened its eyes and looked down at Li Ping’an in the center of the vortex, as insignificant as an ant.

A grand voice echoed between heaven and earth:

“Having seen the true form, why do you not bow?”

Qing Su frowned slightly.

She wanted to rush up there because this so-called deity who had suddenly appeared possessed spiritual power comparable to a Golden Immortal Realm Qi Cultivator.

But just as she was about to act, the divine sword in her hand trembled lightly, reminding her not to act rashly.

In the center of the vortex, Li Ping’an seemed to sense something, his left hand behind his back, his right hand slightly raised, aiming at the deity, and he said slowly:

“Kneel.”

Suddenly, an inexplicable force appeared between heaven and earth, and the colossal form crumbled before reconstituting itself, this time in a kneeling posture.

Li Ping’an’s figure slowly rose up as he said indifferently:

“Minor god of the wilds, how dare you claim to be the true form?

Raise your head, open your eyes.”

The deity showed a panicked expression, struggling to raise its head and look at Li Ping’an, with a hint of fear flashing in its large, bell-like eyes.

“You, who are you…?”

Li Ping’an brought his right-hand fingers together as if wielding a sword, pointing at something ahead.

The massive deity, as if being pulled, fell before Li Ping’an, willingly bringing its wide, vast forehead to Li Ping’an’s fingertips.

Whiz!

Golden light flickered, and the colossal deity disappeared in an instant.

Li Ping’an stood still in the sky, his eyes now closed in meditation, carefully sensing something.
