‘Golden Roc, the Great General?’

Kong Xuan stood still for a long time, gazing at the incense merits being absorbed by Li Ping’an at this location.

His eyes always carried a bit of confusion and hesitation.

The situation with the Roc was obviously not hidden from him;

Their Primordial Spirit was mixed with the power of the Heavenly Dao, personality drastically altered, resembling another person, although complete memories remained, yet a loathsome hypocrisy reeked from their being.

If this wasn’t a Heavenly servant, what was it?

If he were only the Roc’s elder brother, Kong Xuan would have taken action against the instigator in front of him, forcing him to restore the Roc’s true self and withdraw the power of the Heavenly Dao.

The Heavenly Dao is like a parasite, which can both dwell and be expelled; Kong Xuan deduced that this current Heavenly Emperor certainly could accomplish this.

But he was not merely the Roc’s elder brother.

In the age of mortals thriving, the Heavenly Dao’s power increased over sixty times compared to ancient times.

This was no longer the age of Emperor Jun, who could suppress the Heavenly Dao with the Zhou Tian Star Battle Array.

Kong Xuan’s shoulders carried the entire Phoenix Clan, along with those from the Hundred Birds Clan, who followed Primordial Phoenix and left this world, now struggling bitterly.

The Roc entering the Heavenly Court, to them, was not necessarily a bad thing.

Kong Xuan stared at the figure of Li Ping’an, continuously pondering over all these considerations.

He, as an observer, had a clear view of the situation of the universe.

This millennium, before the return of the Six Great Masters achieving sainthood, will likely fall into continuous turmoil as all forces seek opportunities to rely on the Saints.

Due to the rejection by the Heavenly Dao, carrying the karma of destroying the ancient universe, the Phoenix Clan’s original option was only the Western Sect.

But now…

It seemed they had gained an additional choice.

Once the Six Great Masters achieve sainthood, the Heavenly Dao will completely suppress the power of living beings, and this New Heavenly Court will stand at the center of order.

In Kong Xuan’s eyes, this new Heavenly Emperor need not do anything; simply finding a place to hide for a millennium would suffice to become the dominator of all beings, under the protection of the Three Pure Ones;

Yet Kong Xuan also understood why this youthful emperor, not content with obscurity, chose to wage wars during this millennium of turmoil.

—If the Heavenly Court could be established before the return of the Six Saints, then the constraints imposed on the court by the Six Saints would be much reduced.

—If the Heavenly Court were established relying on the internal conflicts between the Six Saints, the two Saints from the Western Sect would certainly be meddlesome, making governance difficult with numerous obstructions.

The Phoenix Clan’s strategists could clearly see this.

‘Only, the means of those fraught with calamity are quite clever, and this Heavenly Emperor seems far too youthful.’

Kong Xuan thought so, watching intently Li Ping’an’s figure, witnessing the birth of a new Mountain God absorbing the incense merits.

The newly born Mountain God swiftly descended on the clouds below, manifesting in temples all around this little universe.

The previously somewhat tumultuous mortals quickly restored calm.

It was as if no battles had occurred at all, only the corpses of ferocious beasts lying across the wilderness continuously emanating Spiritual Power.

This small universe quickly stationed tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers, controlled the situation, and began moving the local living beings.

Li Ping’an patroled through this small universe, then rushed to two other small universes, continuing to harvest the incense merits.

Kong Xuan continued to watch from the side.

He was observing and pondering.

Observing what was so peculiar about this Heavenly Emperor, pondering whether the Phoenix Clan’s future could rely on the path of the Roc serving as a Heavenly servant, as suggested by this Emperor, ‘whitewashing’ themselves.

The Mother Gui Ling had a few words to say that indeed made considerable sense to Kong Xuan.

Rules are established now;

Karmic obstacles were acquired in the past;

In ancient times, who cared about the life and death of living beings?

The weak were but sustenance for the strong, why apply the rules of today to constrain the beings of ancient times?

Shouldn’t it be the case to establish rules now, and whoever breaks them hereafter should face punishment?

Kong Xuan, with hands behind his back, mulled over these questions, followed Li Ping’an’s Silver Shuttle traversing the Void, heading to two small universes.

Thus passed two days and nights.

Li Ping’an enlightened three wild gods, turning them into Mountain Gods of the Heavenly Court;

The first battle of the initial Heavenly Soldiers was victorious, and the death of twelve hundred plus Heavenly Soldiers, using their blood, completed the baptism for the first batch of Heavenly soldiers.

The three small universes began stationing troops, relocating the population to the newly moved small universe near the Misty Realm;

The three new Mountain Gods energetically ran back and forth, pacifying mortals, organizing monks, bustling about industriously.

To Kong Xuan, it was somewhat ironic;

After these three small universes suffered an attack by the Heavenly Court, in more than a dozen nearby small universes, ferocious demons nurtured by the Western Sect immediately fled towards farther universes, and numerous Dao Soldiers were carried away by the demons.

The Western Sect organized no counterattack.

‘Could it be, the Western Sect already knows it is destined to lose, not daring to oppose the New Heavenly Court?’

Seeing this situation, the uncertainties in Kong Xuan’s eyes grew denser, the Five-Colored Divine Light emanating from his palm also dimmed slightly.

But he was not one to fuss and worry excessively.

Seeing that Li Ping’an seemed to be rushing to the main universe, Kong Xuan quietly receded, hiding along the path Li Ping’an was bound to take, watching from afar the movements of Li Ping’an’s party.

What truly was this New Heavenly Emperor like, he naturally wanted to personally weigh it up.

…

‘Going to support the main universe.’

Li Ping’an looked at the Spirit Platform before the Lingxiao Palace, the Merit Treasure Pond again brimming, a hint of a smile forming on his lips.

There was even a subtle sense of accomplishment.

“Your Majesty,” Houtu’s figure gently floated nearby.

Dressed in a loose robe, increasingly divine and pure, understanding the Great Dao of the living beings’ cycle, she radiated a gentle aura from inside out.

Li Ping’an smiled and saluted with his hands clasped: “Fellow Daoist, I leave this place in your care.”

Houtu smiled and said, “Your Majesty, rest assured on your campaign, I will ensure the smooth transfer of beings from these three small universes to the Misty Realm, rather it is Your Majesty I am concerned about.”
