The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 438: Tianhe Navy

Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Tianhe Navy

According to the system, Qin Jun could hardly be considered to have seized another’s body. Right when this body was born, he entered it, which equated to a body with two souls. It was only after the original soul dissipated that he awoke.

Upon awakening, his first reaction was to want to return because, in his previous life, he had finally been on the rise, only to be struck down by the system at a critical moment.

He always aimed to surpass the system, to be the strongest, but upon reflection, he became lost again.

What’s the use of surpassing the system?

What’s the use of being the strongest?

The white light emanating from the Bodhi in his hand grew increasingly bright.

At the gate of the God Temple, two figures suddenly appeared—it was Old Man Yi and Sha Wujing.

Old Man Yi had returned to his disheveled beggar appearance, and who knows what he was thinking. He seemed to quite like this guise, perhaps for the fun of playing the pig to eat the tiger.

"Your Majesty is in a state of enlightenment," Sha Wujing said in surprise, not expecting Qin Jun to have entered a state of understanding so quickly.

Back in the day, it had taken him who knows how long to reach this point. By comparison, the difference was cruel and made his heart ache.

Old Man Yi stared at the Bodhi in Qin Jun’s hand, questioning with surprise, "What is that? It looks like a Bodhi seed."

Sha Wujing looked carefully and also noted the extraordinary nature of the Bodhi, and the two fell silent.

They hadn’t expected Qin Jun to have such a sacred object.

"His Majesty truly has a vast fortune," said Old Man Yi with a tinge of acidity in his voice, thinking to himself that it was no wonder he was a successor of Ji Yongsheng. Then he thought about himself, who had only received a cultivation method, like an outer sect disciple, while Qin Jun was more like a core disciple.

"We should wait outside until His Majesty passes this trial of the heart and is ready to condense his Dao fruit, then we can come in," Old Man Yi said with a laugh and a shake of his head.

Sha Wujing naturally had no objections, and the two turned to leave.

Liu Bowen, Nezha, King Huang Feng, and others were expected to arrive in the Southern Domain’s Heavenly World today. Only one Golden Immortal Realm expert needed to remain in the Plane of Tranquility to preside over it.

The Sacred Emperor and the Earth Traveler Monkey were sweeping through all directions while Shen Gongbao instigated a coalition of more than a dozen forces, turning them into an army. Everywhere they passed, the islands either submitted or were destroyed. In contrast to the tranquility of the Holy City, the entire Sacred Empire was in total chaos.

About two hours after Sha Wujing and the other left, Qin Jun finally had an epiphany.

Having braved thorns and skeletons all along the way, Qin Jun was no longer the average office worker from Earth; he had forged an Emperor’s heart.

"My path is simple, and the road I take is not crooked..."

"I only wish to pursue that supreme throne! To become the Emperor who reigns over all heavens!"

"What of mythology, what of the Southern Domain or Western Domain, I must become the strongest Emperor!"

Qin Jun’s resolve grew ever firm, and the Bodhi in his hand began to ascend rapidly, then shot into his forehead with the swiftness of a thunderclap.

Boom!

Qin Jun felt his mind explode, and in an instant, his spiritual power uncontrollably began to circulate on its own. With a chant, golden dragon qi spilled out from within him, coiling around his body.

After breaking through the trial of the heart, Qin Jun’s momentum began to rise step by step.

Meanwhile, at the base of Sacred Emperor Peak, within the prison below the layers of clouds, Crown Prince Qin’s expression suddenly changed. He looked up in shock and fear, murmuring to himself, "What’s going on... Why has the divine spirit become so unrestful?"

The prison was subjected to a prohibition personally laid out by Old Man Yi. Even with Crown Prince Qin’s divine power of Magnetism, he couldn’t escape. There were also the Left Celestial Marshal and Right Celestial Marshal, along with other Golden Immortal Realm powerhouses who had schemed against Qin Jun.

They all looked at Crown Prince Qin in surprise; this was the first time they saw him losing his composure since being imprisoned.

"Your Highness, can you wield your Magnetism divine power again?" asked the Right Celestial Marshal excitedly. With Crown Prince Qin’s divine power of Magnetism, he would definitely be able to save them.

Crown Prince Qin ignored them and went to the prison gate, gripping the iron bars and gazing at the rolling clouds above, talking to himself, "What in the world is happening..."

On the other hand, Qin Jun levitated, breaking free from the platform, and with him sitting in the lotus position, began to ascend.

Like a golden dragon, the dragon aura coiled around him with mighty roars, whipping up the breeze that tousled his black hair wildly.

At this moment, a mysterious flame insignia appeared between Qin Jun’s brows, giving his handsome face a somewhat eerie look.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a beam of light pierced through the God Temple, falling onto Qin Jun’s head at a speed even Golden Immortal Realm cultivators would struggle to capture.

"Master..."

Qin Jun’s eyes widened in astonishment as he looked around, and that child-like voice rang in his ears once more: "Master..."

"Who’s there? Come out!"

Qin Jun called out sternly, his body involuntarily falling downward, landing on the raised platform.

However, the voice did not sound again.

It was as if Qin Jun had experienced an auditory hallucination. After speaking to himself for a while and still receiving no response, he gave up.

"I feel much lighter all over."

Qin Jun looked at his hands and muttered to himself, and just as he finished speaking, the system’s voice echoed in his mind: "Congratulations to the host for completing the heart trial and clarifying your determination. Next, you may enter seclusion to comprehend the Earth Immortal Dao fruit."

Heart trial?

A look of confusion crossed Qin Jun’s face. Could it be the memories from before?

When he looked at his hand again, he nearly went mad. Where did the Bodhi enlightenment go?

That’s a treasure worth six million fame points!

"The Bodhi enlightenment has merged with the host. It will manifest its effects again when the host comprehends the Earth Immortal Dao fruit," the system timely reminded him.

Qin Jun came to a realization, then got up and turned his neck as he walked out of the palace.

Before his breakthrough, he needed to make some arrangements. Judging by the timing, Liu Bowen and the others should be arriving soon.

"Right, I should summon the God and Demon army first!"

Qin Jun suddenly remembered that he still had a chance to summon the God and Demon army that he hadn’t used yet. He hadn’t summoned them before due to concerns about the Sacred Emperor and the God Temple, but now that he was about to take over the entire Holy Dynasty, what was there left to worry about?

"Ding! Commencing random summoning of the God and Demon army..."

The delightful system notification sound rang out, making Qin Jun unconsciously hum a little tune.

After he breaks through to the Earth Immortal Realm, he’ll summon the God and Demon.

Hopefully, he can summon a super-powerful being who has perfected the Scattered Immortal Realm!

He hopes it’s Sun Wukong!

No, Sun Wukong at the level of the Scattered Immortal Realm is not good enough. It would be best to summon the Supreme Heaven Great Sage, who is at the Mysterious Immortal Realm or even a match for the Daluo Realm!

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for summoning one hundred thousand Tianhe naval forces!"

Sss——

Qin Jun sucked in a breath of cold air. First, he had summoned one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers, and now another one hundred thousand Tianhe naval forces.

Is this the rhythm of summoning the entire Heavenly Court’s army?

But there is no Tianhe in the Southern Domain’s celestial world. What do water forces do without water?

Finding himself in an awkward position, Qin Jun’s eyes darted around before he asked inwardly, "Is the leading general Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng?"

Despite Zhu Bajie’s cowardly facade, Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng is quite formidable. However, his conflict with Chang’e was too peculiar, and even the Jade Emperor seemed to overreact by banishing him to the mortal realm.

One thing’s for sure, though, Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng is definitely not more powerful than the Supreme Heaven Great Sage. In the original story, once he became Zhu Bajie, just hearing Sun Wukong’s name would scare him into almost wetting himself.
