Half a year later, Huang Zhong and Zhou Yu returned to the Imperial Court one after another. Cheng Hao, with a face full of joy, held a banquet in the side hall. He drank and chatted with the civil and military officials until midnight.
As Zhou Yu expected, he was attacked by many civil officials after returning to the Imperial Court. After all, he had slaughtered tens of millions of Southern Barbarian Mountain Bandits. His methods were terrifying.
However, Cheng Hao did not care about this and did not punish Zhou Yu. He only verbally criticized him. For a time, the entire Imperial Court had a clearer understanding of this popular person by the Emperor's side.
Even Zhuge Liang understood that in the future, this beautiful Zhou Yu would definitely be Cheng Hao's choice to replace Lu Kang as the Right Prime Minister. Most of the people in the Imperial Court had already guessed this.
However, Zhuge Liang was not worried about his position because he had advanced yesterday.
The current Sage's combat strength was comparable to that of a general. They played a decisive role in a war. Especially since he was the number one civil official recruited by the Emperor. His position was as stable as a rock and could not be shaken.
Cheng Hao naturally knew about Zhuge Liang's advancement because in his mind, he had already received the message that the second main mission had been completed. It was because of this that he was so happy. He drank and chatted happily with the officials.
"As expected, Kongming is still more awesome!"
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the imperial harem, Cheng Hao tasted the tea personally made by Yue Yao. He could not stop smiling.
"The next main mission is to unify the three kingdoms and restore the glory of the Han Dynasty. There is no hurry."
Cheng Hao was indeed not in a hurry. After all, the next step was to fight for the throne of the Central Plains. Now that Cao Cao had defeated Yuan Shao and become the overlord of the Central Plains, it would not be easy to take down Cao Cao, who had an elite army.
"I should rest for a while and wait for Zhou Yu to advance to the Sage Realm. For now, let's have Liu Bei and his brothers add to Cao Cao's wager."
A while ago, Cheng Hao acknowledged Liu Bei's identity as a Han Dynasty relative and gave him the title of Ji Farmer King. His land was Jizhou, which was the Hebei region in the future. It was the land that Cao Cao took over after defeating Yuan Shao.
Given Liu Bei's ambition, even if he knew that Cheng Hao was painting a big picture for him, he would still not be able to hold himself back and would want to wreak havoc in Hebei with two Golden Generals by his side.
"Yueyao, go back and sleep first. I need to think about some things in the imperial study!"
As usual, it was already late at night. Cheng Hao sent Tang Yueyao back to her quarters to rest while he dealt with government affairs or cultivated in the imperial study.
In the latter half of the night, after Cheng Hao finished dealing with the government affairs in his hands, he didn't cultivate as usual. Instead, he directly activated the god art of his right eye.
After completing the first two main missions, he could return to the Overworld at any time. Regarding this, Cheng Hao naturally wouldn't delay. He had been waiting for a long time to return to the Overworld and become the Great Emperor.
Golden light flickered in his right eye. Then, a simple golden door appeared in his eyes. With a thought, the door emitted a suction force and sucked Cheng Hao in.
.....
Overworld, Earth!
Cheng Hao appeared a second before he left. As soon as he appeared, he felt a great pressure between heaven and earth shrouding him. He knew that his Great Emperor Tribulation was about to descend.
Naturally, Cheng Hao wouldn't go through the tribulation on Earth. His body swayed and disappeared from Earth. When he reappeared, he was in a dark and lonely place in the universe without any life planets.
As soon as he appeared, the Great Emperor Tribulation couldn't wait to descend. In the sky, endless thunder and lightning began to accumulate power, preparing to strike Cheng Hao with a thunderous blow.
This was an unprecedented tribulation. After all, this was the first time that a Divine Being had become an Emperor since the Antiquity Age. No one knew how vast the sky had turned into a sea of thunder and lightning. In the vast sea of thunder and lightning, the Divine Laws were chaotic and could destroy any life.
Cheng Hao's expression was neither happy nor sad. He was motionless. He was an expert at the Vacuum-shattering Realm and an invincible existence in the Sun God Realm. In this Great Emperor Tribulation, unless the Way of Heaven could completely materialize all the Ancient Great Emperors, there was no way to stop him from becoming an Emperor.
The aura in the universe was so oppressive that it was suffocating. Even though they were far away, the powerful figures in the starry sky could still feel it, as if there were millions of mountains pressing down on their hearts.
At this time, the supreme masters who had sealed themselves in the forbidden zone of life were also awakened by this aura. Their divine thoughts crossed the starry sky of the universe. In a short time, they saw Cheng Hao standing motionless in the sea of thunder.
"This aura, he is going to become an Emperor!"
"This is the final tribulation of becoming an Emperor. This aura can't be wrong. It is definitely the Great Emperor Tribulation!"
"Everyone, if a Divine Being becomes an Emperor, he will definitely be another Great Emperor of Wu Shi. Why don't we join forces and kill him?"
Some people sighed with emotion, and some people exclaimed. The Divine Emperor in the Undying Mountain urged again. He wanted to join forces with a group of supreme masters to kill Cheng Hao in advance while he was going through the tribulation.
"Ha, ha …"
"Ha, ha …"
This time, the other supreme masters didn't even bother to pay attention to him. When Cheng Hao's Divine Being had undergone the tribulation, the Stone Emperor had urged them to take action. However, how could the supreme masters, who cherished their lives to the extreme, be willing to waste their limited vitality here? Anyway, as long as they stayed in the forbidden zone, even if this person became an Emperor, he wouldn't cause trouble for them.
Cheng Hao naturally sensed the supreme masters' divine thoughts around him. However, at this time, he was busy going through the tribulation and was too lazy to pay attention to them. They were just a group of supreme masters who had severed their own lives. He really didn't care about them.
Various scenes appeared one by one in the sea of thunder. Some turned into strange beasts, some turned into immortal divine medicines, and some turned into various Extreme Emperor Weapons. In short, every bolt of lightning had great power and could shatter the galaxy. If the entire sea of thunder completely exploded, it could even reopen the universe!
This scene was too terrifying. The destructive power was unparalleled. Even if the Great Ancient Emperors were resurrected, they would be shocked. These divine punishments were too strong and could easily kill a supreme master.
"Old Stone Emperor, when you became an Emperor, was the divine punishment so terrifying?" A supreme master asked with fear.
"No, I'm afraid this person doesn't just have a Divine Being. You should know that this is only the beginning of the divine punishment, and its power is already comparable to the final tribulation when we became an Emperor. I really don't know how terrifying the divine punishment will be in the later stages!"
