Chapter 1616: Chapter 1616: The Pact of Qing Emperor

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for summoning Taoist Ci Hang from mythological legends. Would you like to re-summon?"

Just as Mo Jingcang and Qing Emperor were negotiating, the system notification sounded again.

Taoist Ci Hang, one of the Twelve Immortals of Kunlun, is said to be the predecessor of Guanyin Bodhisattva. However, since Qin Jun had already summoned Guanyin, he wasn’t interested.

"Re-summon!"

Qin Jun decided in his heart, his gaze fixed on Qing Emperor.

Qing Emperor surpassed both Emperor Qiutian and the Chaos God Sovereign in power, forcing Qin Jun to take him seriously.

"I naturally will not involve myself in Primordial grievances, but is your feud so great that it warrants the annihilation of clans? And the Chaos God Sovereign—he is the Lord of Order. Could it be that you also bear a grudge against him?"

Qing Emperor’s eyes were serene, his voice authoritative yet devoid of anger or other discernible emotions.

Hearing this, Mo Jingcang sneered, "We originally dwelled in the Ancient Holy Imperial Dao, but it was the Blood Bat Clan, the Golden Ripple Divine Sect, and the God Lord Cloud Palace that provoked us. Must we swallow our anger?"

The faces of the gods and demons turned grim, and they began preparing for battle.

Despite Qing Emperor’s profound and inscrutable aura, they showed no fear.

They had endured countless enemies stronger than themselves on their journey thus far. If they still feared confrontation, how could they have reached this point?

"Do you intend to judge me?"

Qin Jun finally spoke, his tone tinged with humor, his eyes meaningful as though examining prey.

Qing Emperor locked his gaze onto Qin Jun, shaking his head, "I would not judge you merely for the sake of three factions. Their destruction stems from their weakness."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for summoning Wuyun Immortal from mythological legends. Would you like to restore past life’s memories?"

"Restore! Show attribute list!"

Qin Jun communicated with the system in his heart. Qing Emperor, noticing his silence, assumed Qin Jun was skeptical and continued, "You call yourself the Heavenly Emperor and dare to act so arrogantly in the Primordial Realm? I find you intriguing, which is why I sought you out."

In the Primordial Realm, beings who proclaimed themselves Heavenly Emperors often met strange and untimely deaths.

Not long ago, another self-proclaimed Heavenly Emperor had suddenly died violently within the Primordial Realm.

"Wuyun Immortal, from mythological legends!"

"Identity: One of the Eight Immortals of Jie Sect! Golden Whiskered Ao Fish!"

"Cultivation: Manifesting Saint Realm, Mid-stage!"

"Cultivation Method: Primal Harmony Art!"

"Divine Powers: Zhi Trembling Tail! Infinite Robe Strike! Ocean Overflowing Palm! Devouring Sea Mouth! Earth-shrinking Step!"

"Artifact: Primal Harmony Hammer!"

"Loyalty: 84 (Max value: 100)!"

The Mid-stage Manifesting Saint Realm—a worthy figure, given that in the Investiture of the Gods it required Cundi to subdue him.

At that moment, Wuyun Immortal suddenly appeared beside Qin Jun, dressed in a Taoist robe. His face was dark, and his long beard cascaded from his jaw to his chest.

This scene caused Qing Emperor to furrow his brows slightly, though the other gods and demons appeared unfazed.

They were already keenly aware of Qin Jun’s ability to summon beings at will, most of whom were figures from mythological history known to them.

Privately, they often discussed this among themselves. However, Qin Jun treated them well, and with the Great Qin Heavenly Court being so powerful, they dared not question Qin Jun, even if they harbored thoughts about it.

"Now that you have seen my master, is there anything else you’d like to say?"

Mo Jingcang broke the silence, speaking as if issuing an implicit order for Qing Emperor to leave.

With Qing Emperor present, how could they feel at ease?

"Ling Emperor is about to emerge. When the time comes, I will host a banquet and invite renowned figures from Southern Primordial to celebrate Ling Emperor’s advent. Would you like to attend?"

Qing Emperor spoke, his demeanor unchanging, his intent unreadable.

A banquet to celebrate Ling Emperor’s emergence?

Mo Jingcang frowned, and the gods and demons began to wonder what Qing Emperor was planning.

After all, they had slain one of Qing Emperor’s Sovereign Creation Supreme subordinates.

Could this be a Hongmen Banquet?

"Ding! Triggered main quest—Qing Emperor’s Invitation! Mission details: With Ling Emperor about to emerge, Qing Emperor specifically hosts a banquet to gather Southern Primordial’s strongest. If the host attends this banquet, they will gain a Primordial Tribulation Crossing opportunity, a Great Dao inheritance opportunity, an ultimate awakening opportunity, and a God and Demon resurrection opportunity!"

The system’s notification echoed in Qin Jun’s mind. A main quest—clearly of extraordinary significance.

"Very well, I shall go."

Qin Jun replied, instantly unsettling the gods and demons.

They hadn’t come to the Primordial Realm to develop power—they sought revenge. The emergence of Ling Emperor would undoubtedly usher in chaos and bloodshed. They were unwilling to see Qin Jun entangle himself in such murky waters.

Qing Emperor smiled faintly. He admired Qin Jun’s fearlessness, even if it might lead to unfortunate consequences.

"Take this token. In a year’s time, come to Yunhong Peak."

Qing Emperor threw an ancient bronze token toward Qin Jun. Engraved on it were enigmatic characters, which Qin Jun instantly recognized as bearing the mark of Qing.

The script of Primordial was designed by him, passed to the Seven Gods of Primordial Origin, who subsequently taught it to all beings.

After accepting the token, Qing Emperor turned and vanished into a spatial rift.

"Your Majesty, do you truly intend to go?" Bai Qi asked solemnly.

He sensed scheming in Qing Emperor’s actions. If he were in Qing Emperor’s place, why would he invite Qin Jun? Sparing Qin Jun’s life was already the utmost tolerance.

"I am not going because of his goodwill. I am intrigued by Ling Emperor."

Qin Jun toyed with the ancient bronze token, smiling, leaving Bai Qi momentarily stunned and somewhat baffled.

In the following days, the gods and demons continued their search for the Endless Void Prison, while Qin Jun absorbed the entire God Lord Cloud Palace into his eye’s microcosm.

After all, the Chaos God Sovereign would undoubtedly possess vast treasures. How could Qin Jun let them go?

After about one incense stick’s worth of time, Sun Wukong finally located the Endless Void Prison.

The Endless Void Prison was likewise an independent cosmic space, with its entrance on a fist-sized meteor drifting within the microcosm. Searching for it was like finding a needle in a haystack; no mere mortal could have discovered it.

Sun Wukong forcibly tore open the entrance and shouted inside, "This is Sun Wukong, Supreme Heaven Great Sage under the command of the Heavenly Emperor of Great Qin!"

"Today, we shall destroy the Chaos God Sovereign! I give you all a chance to live—quickly show yourselves!"

As his voice fell, unstable auras began pouring from the spatial entrance. Then one after another, countless beings rushed out like schools of fish swimming upstream.

The spatial opening grew wider and wider.

Among them were human cultivators, demon clan kings, devil clan magnates, and creatures from various other races.

Most existed in soul form, while only a few still retained their physical bodies.

"ROAR—I’m finally free!"

Suddenly, a violent roar erupted from within the spatial entrance. Following it was the aura of a Sovereign Creation Supreme, causing Sun Wukong’s expression to shift.

Qin Jun narrowed his eyes. Could there really be a Sovereign Creation Supreme imprisoned within the Endless Void Prison?

Soon after, a sharp claw reached out from the spatial rift, tearing it further as the owner of the enormous body emerged. It was a terrifying beast, jet black all over. Its face lacked eyes, nose, and ears, as well as hair. Its mouth brimmed with jagged fangs, some stained with blood.

"Not good! The Void demon is escaping!"

"Supreme Heaven Great Sage, quickly suppress it! It must not come out!"

"Yes! This creature is the most vile being in the Primordial Realm—it cannot be released!"

"Heavenly Emperor, suppress it immediately!"

The beings who had escaped from the prison turned to Qin Jun and Sun Wukong to plead desperately, evidently terrified of the Void demon’s existence.
