After Zhang Yan said this, Quan Dao and Quan Dao both fell silent.
All of them knew that a direct fight with De Dao was indeed the most direct and effective method. However, they faintly felt that something was wrong in their hearts. It seemed that the moment they agreed, the situation would completely leave their control. Moreover, the might of the treasure that Zhang Yan had mentioned had caused them to be extremely vigilant and fearful.
Moreover, they had lost all the battles, which showed how strong De Dao was. Who could guarantee that if they joined forces with Zhang Yan, they would definitely be able to defeat De Dao?
After a while, the Grand Supreme on the left said, "If it was before, I would think that Fellow Daoist's words were very reasonable, but now the situation has changed, and there is another way to seize the heavenly power."
The Daoist on the right also said, "That's right. Although we lost in the battle, it is not impossible to win back from him."
Zhang Yan immediately understood what these two meant. They saw that after the Celestial Lords were severely injured, the realms were in turmoil for the past 30 years, and the Heavenly Court was declining, so they planned to use the Thearch's Son to seize the heavenly power.
There was a possibility of success, but he was not optimistic. Although the Celestial Lords had yet to recover, the Heavenly Court still had many Immortal Officials and many Itinerant Immortals, which was enough to calm the chaos.
He knew that the two of them should have sensed something, which was why they were unwilling to accept his suggestion. However, he already had a plan, which was currently being set up. Once it was activated, whether it was the Path of Virtue or the Path of Integrity, they would have no choice but to take this final path.
He said, "Since you two Daoists think this is feasible, then let's give it a try. However, the Eleventh Prince only has a country under his rule, so he will not participate in this battle."
Quan Dao and Quan Dao discussed with each other and agreed to this matter.
They knew that this was a subtle indication that Zhang Yan did not agree with and was not optimistic about their action, but it did not matter. The Eleventh Prince's power was indeed not big, and it did not matter if he was missing. Moreover, if they gave up this opportunity, if they could really attack the Heavenly Court in the future, this Thearch's Son would no longer have the ability to fight for the throne, which was a good thing for them.
Furthermore, the two sects were allies after all. Even if they didn't intervene in this situation, De Dao would still have to use part of their strength for defense. In this way, they wouldn't be able to use their full strength to deal with them. Therefore, even if Forgotten Li Mountain didn't intervene, they would still be able to restrain them.
When Zhang Yan saw that the matter had been settled, he didn't have to stay here, so he bid farewell to the two of them right away and turned around to return to Forgotten Mountain.
After he left, the two of them. He then drafted an imperial edict and ordered people to send it to the lower realms.
Xingtai Continent, Little Chengyang Palace.
Ever since Hao Chang forced the Celestial Lords to retreat, his reputation had soared. Over the past few decades, more and more people came to seek shelter from him. In particular, some of the Heavenly Court's immortal officials, who held great power, had secretly colluded with him. There were even calls in the Heavenly Court to depose the Fourteenth Prince and replace him with the Third Prince.
It was said that the Fourteenth Prince had made a few mistakes and had been criticized several times. It seemed like his position was a little unstable. Thus, during this period of time, he was full of ambition and thought that the day of his return to the Heavenly Court was not far away.
On this day, Run Ming suddenly came to find him and said solemnly, "Your Highness, Patriarch has passed down an imperial edict."
When Hao Chang heard that it was a rumor from Grand Elder, his expression tensed up and he hurriedly asked, "What did Grand Elder say?"
Run Ming didn't say it directly and only muttered a few sentences.
Hao Chang seemed to be frightened. He widened his eyes and looked at Run Ming, asking with a trembling voice, "Are we really going to do this?"
Run Ming said, "Ruling the universe and being the Venerable Emperor, isn't that what Your Highness wants?"
Hao Chang calmed his state of mind and said hesitantly, "But recently, Royal Father seems to have the intention to appoint me …"
Run Ming sneered, "This is just to numb Your Highness, could it be that Your Highness can't even see this? I dare to say that when the situation stabilizes, the Fourteenth Prince will definitely ascend to the throne. At that time, Your Highness won't have a chance anymore. "
Hao Chang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The Middle Court is powerful, what should I do?"
Run Ming pointed to the sky and said, "The stars are dim, the universe is restless, this is a good opportunity!"
Hao Chang subconsciously raised his head and saw that the stars in the sky were much dimmer and less complete. One must know that since ancient times, the stars in the sky had almost never changed, but now, they were missing and scattered, obviously not as good as before. It was indeed a good opportunity to attack the Celestial Court. However, as a prince, he was very clear of the Celestial Court's foundation, so he was still worried and said, "But even if there are no Star Sovereigns in the court to help, the power they have is far greater than mine, this matter is still difficult."
At this moment, Daoist Run Ming said, "If Your Highness can persuade one person, this matter will be in the bag."
Hao Chang asked for guidance, "May I know who Daoist Run Ming is talking about?"
Run Ming said, "The former Left Imperial Censor of the Celestial Court, Ying Kuang."
"Ying Kuang?"
Hao Chang's expression changed. He already knew that the reason he was able to defeat the Star Sovereigns in one battle thirty years ago was because this person had killed his way into the depths of the void and destroyed the star essence everywhere. With his current strength, if he could get someone with the Celestial Talisman to serve him, there was indeed hope of defeating the Celestial Court. He asked, "Can this person be trusted?
Run Ming replied, "Of course not, Ying Kuang seems to be hostile towards the gods, but there's no harm in it. As long as this person has the same interests as me, we can try to rope him in. When we defeat the Celestial Court, we can think of a way to deal with him."
Hao Chang thought about it and felt that it was worth a try.
The Hao gods only listened to Celestial Monarch's orders, so they had nothing to do with him now. If they didn't submit, they would be enemies. As for the Yun gods, he couldn't wait for Ying Kuang to kill them all. When he ruled the universe in the future, as long as he had the support of Quan Dao and the Star Sovereigns in his hands, his position would be unshakable.
Thinking about this, he suddenly had an idea and couldn't help but ask, "Daoist Run Ming, if we can get the Celestial Talisman …"
Run Ming shook his head and said, "Your Highness, you don't have to think about it. Other than Grand Elder, no one else can get it, and we will offend him for no reason."
Hao Chang gave up after Run Ming denied it. He frowned and said, "That's strange, how did Ying Kuang steal this thing from the lower bound?"
Run Ming sneered, "If it wasn't for De Dao's tricks, how could Ying Kuang get it so easily?" He glanced at Hao Chang and said, "Your Highness, if you really want to use this thing, you can ask the two patriarchs to refine another one after I get the offerings."
Hao Chang was overjoyed when he heard this. Even with his shrewdness, he was slightly excited and said, "Is it really possible?"
Run Ming said, "Of course it's possible. Celestial Monarch naturally has a Celestial Talisman to display his authority. Speaking of which, your father has lost this thing, so his name is already unrighteous."
Hao Chang nodded repeatedly and said, "Alright, I will send an envoy to convince Zuo Yuzhong."
Half a day later, an envoy came out from Little Chengyang Palace and headed towards Great Zhou's territory.
Ying Kuang did not conceal his whereabouts, so it did not take the emissary long to find his residence. After reporting his identity, he was quickly led in without any trouble. The emissary and Ying Kuang could be considered old acquaintances. After they met, they exchanged a few pleasantries and explained the purpose of their visit.
Ying Kuang said, "Oh? The Third Prince wants to recruit me? "
The envoy said, "Yes, Your Highness said that Zuo Yuzhong wants nothing more than to expel the gods and overthrow the Celestial Court. Now that I have the same goal as Your Highness, why don't we work together?"
Ying Kuang didn't answer and said, "Envoy, you have come from afar, you can take a rest first."
The envoy knew that he needed to weigh the pros and cons, so he bowed and retreated.
Ying Kuang took out a talisman and sent it to the sky. Then, he waited quietly.
After a few breaths, there was a sound coming from outside. The curtains of the tent fluttered even though there was no wind. Danguang walked in and bowed, "Zuo Yuzhong invited I here, is there a problem?"
Ying Kuang stood up and bowed. He said in a deep voice, "Just Now, the Third Prince is here to recruit me. Do you think I can accept it?"
He wasn't a pedantic person. If he could use the Third Prince's power to weaken the Celestial Court, he wouldn't mind joining forces with him. However, he was indebted to Danguang for lending him a treasure previously. Moreover, his most valued disciple was under the protection of the Li Wang Mountain. Therefore, he had to explain this matter to Danguang.
Danguang smiled and said, "Since the Third Prince is sincerely inviting me, why don't I go and help him?"
Ying Kuang looked over and said, "Aren't you afraid that the Third Prince will really overthrow the Celestial Court and take the throne?"
Danguang laughed and said, "If he can be pushed up so easily, then it won't be hard to pull him down in the future."
Ying Kuang was deep in thought. After he sent Wan Guang away, he invited the envoy again and said that he had agreed to the Third Prince's invitation. However, at the same time, he brought up many harsh requirements. The envoy had obviously been informed before he came and agreed to all the conditions on the spot. Then, he invited Ying Kuang to draft a contract with him.
Ying Kuang was also satisfied with this. No matter what happened in the future, at least there wouldn't be a problem for the two sides to join forces. Therefore, he set off on the same day and headed to the Xing Tai Continent with the envoy.
Ever since Zhang Yan returned to the Li Wang Mountain, he had been calculating the heavenly secrets and saw everything that Quan Dao had done.
He snorted coldly. Quan Dao lost the duel and wanted to win it back from the other side. The two of them simply lacked the courage to stake everything on one throw. Quan Dao might even think that after this, the Dao of Virtue would still be compatible and he could wait for the next change of the throne to find another opportunity.
He thought to himself, If that's the case, then I'll find a way to force him to do it. “
The method he was thinking of was to use his true body to observe this world and create an illusion that the true body of the Dao of Virtue was about to come over.
If such a thing really happened, then the two of them wouldn't be able to resist it. After all, they were only a strand of consciousness and wouldn't be a match for the true body. Quan Dao was afraid that the Dao of Virtue would get the item that the Celestial Court controlled, so he definitely wouldn't continue to compromise and would fight for it at all costs.
Similarly, the Dao of Virtue would definitely protect this item with all his strength. Once the Dao of Virtue and Virtue personally came over, he would achieve his goal.
Speaking of which, he had this plan a long time ago. However, at that time, he didn't understand the Qi dynamics of the two sides. He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, the Dao of Virtue and Virtue would discover the truth. But now, after observing the Dao of Virtue and Virtue for a long time, he more or less understood the changes in it. That was why he had the confidence to do this.
At this moment, with a single thought from him, an inexplicable fluctuation appeared in the entire world.
At this moment, both the Dao of Virtue and the Dao of Virtue and Virtue felt a vast power descend. That feeling was clearly that one of their true bodies was about to descend into this world!
