It was not just the South Continent. Other than the North Continent, most of the five continents of the Primordial World were flourishing.
There were countless small cultivators in the Middle Continent. The East Continent was also considered a prosperous place for the human race. The Aparagodānīya Continent had a relatively dense human kingdom for thousands of years because of the prosperity of the Buddhist Sect. In the South Continent, it was the place where the destiny of the world gathered. It was the foundation of the human race.
No matter how vast the trichiliocosm was, if the five continents of the Primordial World were lost, it would be an unbearable price.
Chu Qi was not the only one who saw that problem. Countless cultivators of the Primordial World who were fighting bloody battles saw it too.
Therefore, when Li Jing gave the order to retreat in time, most of the cultivators were unwilling to retreat. Even though they were seriously injured, they gritted their teeth and continued fighting the other party.
A stream of light rushed towards Li Jing. It was Emperor Fuxi, whose aura was a little chaotic. Clearly, he had been seriously injured in the battle previously.
"Marshal Li!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"There's no need to greet me." Fuxi only said, "I just want to ask if the Celestial Court has made any arrangements for the mortal world of the South Continent?"
Li Jing was speechless. He only shook his head and sighed.
"Then how can we retreat!?!"
Fuxi frowned and showed a rare look of anger. "Why don't we fight them to the death here? If the South Continent is destroyed, the foundation of the human race will be destroyed. What future plans do we have!?!"
"This … I'll ask His Majesty now." Li Jing could only sigh softly and hurriedly send someone to the Celestial Court to ask.
When Fuxi saw that, he did not stay there to prevent Li Jing from controlling the overall situation. He turned around and returned to the battlefield to join the battle.
Although Fuxi was born in the demon race, he was now the Saint Emperor of the human race. Naturally, he was more concerned about the mortal world of the human race.
Not long after, the Heavenly General who was sent to ask returned. His expression was a little gloomy as he shook his head at Li Jing.
The Jade Emperor did not care about the mortal world of the South Continent in his various plans.
That was indeed the case. It was obviously impossible to take away so many mortals in the mortal world of the South Continent.
"Ah!"
Li Jing sighed and the Exquisite Pagoda in his hand trembled slightly.
Even so, the battle still had to continue. Li Jing could only force himself to continue commanding the entire situation.
No one knew how tormented Li Jing was at that moment. No one knew what Li Jing was thinking in that short moment. However, very quickly, the military order he issued was less defensive and more like a piece of jade and stone.
In the Lingxiao Treasure Hall of the Celestial Court, the Jade Emperor stared at the jade table in front of him. He closed his eyes and sighed. "Li Jing is ultimately a human. He is stubborn and the gains do not make up for the losses."
Venus Taibai frowned and said, "Your Majesty, if we use the power of the Heavenly Dao, is there really no way to separate the South Continent from the five continents?"
"Sigh …"
The Jade Emperor did not answer. He just sighed and stood up again.
He suddenly asked, "Taibai, in your eyes, am I a competent Jade Emperor?"
Venus Taibai said, "His Majesty's governance of the Three Realms is not at all inappropriate."
"Really?" The Jade Emperor chuckled and put his hands in his sleeves. He stood beside the jade table. Venus Taibai took half a step back and did not stand beside the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor smiled and said, "Then why did you and Minister Li think about letting Yang Jian replace me?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Venus Taibai immediately knelt down and did not refute.
Clearly, the Jade Emperor knew about that matter somehow. However, the Jade Emperor chose to turn a blind eye to it. He had a high tolerance for Venus Taibai and Li Jing.
"There's no need to be nervous. Now that the Primordial World is about to be broken through by the supreme experts, I, the Jade Emperor, have reached the end." The Jade Emperor smiled and waved his hand. The faces of the officials below turned pale and they did not dare to look forward.
Venus Taibai knelt and did not move. The Jade Emperor took the initiative to walk forward and help Venus Taibai up.
"Throughout the Celestial Court and the Skyward Pavilion, Taibai and Minister Li are people I trust. However, I have broken my promise to you. It's reasonable for you to think of this method. There's no need to do this."
"I'm not loyal. I don't dare to agree."
Venus Taibai sighed and said with a complicated gaze.
The Jade Emperor, who was at the side, smiled and shook his head. However, he did not mention the matter and walked down the steps.
"Before the battle, I left my nephew here and asked him if he was willing to succeed me," the Jade Emperor said. "He said that he was unwilling. He looked at me with mockery and disdain. I know that he is dissatisfied with me for being good at strategizing and always scheming."
Venus Taibai frowned and did not say anything. She really did not know why the Jade Emperor had made up his mind.
Those words were really as if he was handing over his funeral matters.
The Jade Emperor walked down the platform. The civil officials had already stood up and lowered their heads. They retreated.
The Jade Emperor continued, "Let's not talk about whether we're enemies. I once wanted to kill him. He had also wanted to kill me more than once. However, putting aside these personal grudges, he looked down on Perfected Lord Erlang Xiansheng and me, the Jade Emperor."
"Perfected Lord Erlang, actually …"
An immortal official wanted to say something complimentary, but just as he was about to say it, the Jade Emperor looked over and did not know where to start.
The Jade Emperor smiled and shook his head. He continued to walk forward, as if he wanted to walk out of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
"I know that it's not just Perfected Lord Erlang. Many of you secretly look down on me. They think that I don't have any real mystical abilities and that I'm a puppet supported by the Dao Ancestors and Saints."
"Child Hao Tian, many mighty figures of the Primordial World have called me that since ancient times and secretly commented on me …"
"However, who has ever thought about me? Who has ever thought about where I am and where I am?"
The way the Jade Emperor addressed himself seemed to have changed unknowingly. The aura on his body gradually became ethereal and sharp from the previous majestic aura.
"I was born with the will of the world. I was the first person chosen by the Heavenly Dao to control the Heavenly Dao. However, the Dao Ancestor was ambitious. Before I cultivated, he sealed me. He even used the responsibility of a teacher to turn me into a child in front of him. How can I be willing? How can I be willing? "
"After the Demon Court was destroyed, the Saints exerted pressure on me. Daoist Qianhong made me the Jade Emperor, but he secretly made the Middle Continent filled with immortal sects. The huge Celestial Court was poor. It could not even produce a thousand sets of Heavenly Soldier armor!"
"If not for the secret support of the Three Pure Ones, the Celestial Court would probably be the laughing stock of the Primordial World!"
The Jade Emperor had already walked to the door of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. He walked over the steps and looked at the layers of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals outside the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
His voice became louder and louder, but it only echoed in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
"In such a situation, how can I not plot? How can I not plan? How can I not go step by step? How can I not find various reasons to descend to the lower realm and secretly establish the Skyward Pavilion? "
"The current Heavenly Court was plotted by me bit by bit! Now, I am the one who can fight the supreme experts in the Primordial World! I put in a lot of effort, set up a plan, and spent more than ten yuan to obtain it! "
"Why do you look down on me, the Jade Emperor!?! How can the thousands of cultivators have the face to call me Child Hao Tian!?! "
The Jade Emperor waved his arm and shouted. The immortal officials in the hall looked ashamed. The countless Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals outside the hall, who could not hear what the Jade Emperor was shouting, knelt down at the same time and shouted at the Jade Emperor,
"Greetings, Your Majesty, the Jade Emperor!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty, the Jade Emperor!"
The shouts were like a tsunami, echoing throughout the Celestial Court.
The Jade Emperor glanced at Venus Taibai from the corner of his eye. With a flick of his sleeve, he threw a decree behind him.
On the platform on his right, he said, "Heavenly Sword, come quickly!"
The Heavenly Dao trembled. Wisps of immortal light quickly condensed and condensed into a translucent sword out of thin air. It landed in the Jade Emperor's hand.
His voice was still directed at the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
"Alright, today, I will let the cultivators of the Primordial World see that the Child Hao Tian they speak of is the person who saved their lives. The Jade Emperor that they look down on is the true hero who protected the Primordial World! "
"Your Majesty!"
Venus Taibai could not help but cry. He kowtowed repeatedly. "Your Majesty, please reconsider! Your Majesty, please reconsider! "
"I've made up my mind! Where are the troops!?! "
Countless Heavenly Soldiers shouted in unison, "Yes!"
The Nine Dragons Chariot flew over. The Jade Emperor leaped up and held the Heavenly Dao Sword in his hand. He carried endless heavenly might and his golden robe fluttered in the wind. All the Divine Soldiers in the sky knelt down!
"Now that the Primordial World is facing a calamity, the living beings are about to be plunged into misery and suffering! From the day the soldiers of the Celestial Court submitted to it, they have the duty to guard the Three Realms and the Primordial World! "
"Today, I will advance and retreat with the army. I will live and die with everyone! After I beat the drum three times, the Celestial Court will descend on the North Continent. With the last effort of the Celestial Court, I will protect the living beings of the five continents of the Primordial World to retreat to the trichiliocosm! "
"If any of you are afraid of death, take off your immortal armor, leave the East Heavenly Gate, and head to the ancient path of pilgrimage!"
As soon as the Jade Emperor finished speaking, the Heavenly Soldiers fell silent.
From the Perfected Immortals to the consecrators of the Celestial Court, all of them had solemn expressions and stood tall!
"Alright!" The Jade Emperor laughed loudly. "Beat the drum!"
The sound of the drum suppressed the sky and passed three times in a row!
"Activate the array!"
The Heavenly Sword Light in the Jade Emperor's hand shone brightly. An incomparably resplendent pillar of light pierced through the entire Celestial Court from his hand!
The Nine Heavenly Realms trembled!
Countless Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals roared loudly. Bolts of lightning flashed everywhere in the Celestial Court.
The weather in the Primordial World changed. A rumbling sound echoed in the world, as if the sky was about to collapse!
Since ancient times, the Celestial Court, which had been floating above the five continents, had actually moved from the sky above the Middle Continent towards the North Continent under the push of the Celestial Court's array formation and the power of the Heavenly Dao!
The expressions of countless cultivators changed. The Saints who were fighting were also disrupted by the sudden change.
Heavenly Flame Daoist let out a long roar. The Saints of the Primordial World suddenly began to attack ferociously without caring about their losses. For a moment, all the supreme experts and Saints were restrained!
Boundless lightning appeared everywhere in the North Continent. A huge "dark cloud" that almost enveloped the entire North spread out.
The stars fell, and the sky was ignited.
The living beings of the North Continent fled in all directions!
Pillars of light descended from the sky and landed in various parts of the North Continent. They began to chase away the living beings there and escort the Wu people back to the Middle Continent.
Li Jing, who was commanding the battle formation, also received the order from the Celestial Court. His face was a little pale. He trembled and surrendered to the ground. He shouted "Your Majesty" three times, then stood up and began to command the various armies to retreat to the North Continent.
The Celestial Court.
It's here!
