The Immeasurable Heavenly Lord finally left, while the monkey continued to stare at him.
Primordial Demon and Maitreya Buddha both retreated.
At this point, the outcome of the battle of the Immortal Court had been determined.
Yan Zhaoge turned around and looked at the fragments of the Immortal Court's wreckage, which resembled a cloud of mist, gradually dissipating.
The figures of Nezha, Perfected Taiyi, and the others appeared beside him. Everyone felt emotional, but they could not hide their joy.
"Let's go." Yan Zhaoge and the others traversed through space and returned to the Daoism Heavens together.
Here, Yan Zhaoge used the eighteen Sea Calming Pearls to establish eighteen more universes. Within them, the citizens of the Immortal Court who had been purified by the treasured light of faith power could be placed.
In time to come, this place would be a flourishing scene of the human world, and it would also be an even wider foundation for the orthodox Daoism.
The North Star Emperor had also placed the World beyond Worlds within his Grand Sovereign Huangceng Heaven.
At this point, Daoism had finally truly regained its flourishing state of pre-Great Calamity times.
Everyone felt relieved when they saw this.
Long Xingquan asked Yan Zhaoge about the situation in the World beyond Worlds. After listening to Yan Zhaoge's narration, he remained silent.
"Perhaps Daoist Jiang cared too much about the dark period before the World beyond Worlds and the Roving Jade Heavens were established," After a long time, Long Xingquan sighed softly, "Now that you have finally found a place to settle down, you cherish it a lot."
Gao Qingxuan said quietly, "Enduring humiliation and carrying a heavy load will no longer be as difficult and dangerous as it was in the past, but that's all we can do. We won't fall into the worst situation without seeing the dawn of hope."
"Without Daoist Shao searching for the Pill Hall, without Yin Tianxia and Hu Yuexin seizing the Heavenly Essence Stone's fragments, without Zhao Ge helping the Great Sage Equalling Heavens escape, without Daoist Yan and little junior apprentice-sister protecting the Immortal Trapping Sword, without the fellow daoists successfully seizing the Immortal Extermination Formation, without the Great Sage Equalling Heavens ascending to the Dao Realm, we, including Jiang Shen, would never be able to witness the fellow daoists personally bringing order to the chaos and annihilating the heretics."
She shook her head slightly. "How can it be so simple to place our hopes on a Heavenly Venerable ascending to the Dao Realm? The Demon Race and the Western Pure Lands — which one of them didn't have any bigwig experts who had the same thoughts? If we don't work hard, how can we compete with them? "
"His greatest hope is actually the Grand Supreme Elder. However, the Grand Supreme Elder only throws stones and does not play chess …"
Currently, everyone knew that Yan Zhaoge was related to the Elder Lord.
He also knew that the monkey's escape and ascension to the Dao Realm had something to do with the Old Supreme Lord.
However, the problem was that the Elder Lord didn't care whether Yan Zhaoge helped the monkey or not.
If there was no help, then everything that followed would not exist. The Grand Supreme Elder might correct it and arrange for someone else to help the monkey.
But maybe not.
If it's gone, it's gone …
At that time, it was very likely that the Grand Supreme Elder would not take action.
Because of this, while the monkey owed the Elder Lord a favor, it also owed Yan Zhaoge a favor. It wouldn't attribute everything to the Elder Lord's arrangements.
Doing as he pleased, doing as he pleased, and not doing anything at all. That was the Grand Supreme Elder.
Of course, to the people of the Dao Sect, it was especially vexing …
"The dead are gone, so let's not talk about it anymore. Although we have different thoughts, I'm grateful for Brother Jiang's willingness to leave a chance for our Dao Sect." Long Xingquan said, "Brother Jiang, it's not in vain that you passed away with a smile."
Gao Qingxuan nodded slightly and no longer spoke.
Feng Yunsheng appeared, nodding towards Yan Zhaoge.
Yan Zhaoge understood her meaning.
He had already contacted Gao Han.
Yan Zhaoge once said that he would like to chat with Gao Han after the Immortal Court's battle.
While Feng Yunsheng was guarding the Daoism Heavens, she tried to contact Gao Han.
"I'll pay my respects to my ancestors first," said Yan Zhaoge to Feng Yunsheng.
Feng Yunsheng returned to the Sky beyond Skies with him. When they arrived at the Bright Connection Valley, they saw Xue Chuqing standing in front of the Canghua Divine Tree formed by the Bright Connection Emperor – Hu Yuexin's slough.
Xue Chuqing turned around and saw Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng entering. She smiled and said, "You're back?"
She had already received the news.
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng came to her side. With a tap of his finger, a tiny radiant wheel appeared and hovered in front of the Canghua Divine Tree.
The radiant wheel enlarged and transformed into a black iron wheel with twelve slots.
The Dim Radiant Wheel slowly rotated, and the blue flowers on the Canghua Divine Tree bloomed without any wind blowing. As they swayed, a soundless song seemed to resound.
The radiance within the twelve slots on the black iron wheel was extinguished. It flew up to the Canghua Divine Tree and hung on the top of a branch.
The wheel and the tree quietly stayed together, as if it was an eternal scene.
Yan Zhaoge, Xue Chuqing, and Feng Yunsheng bowed towards the Dim Radiant Wheel and the Canghua Divine Tree.
After paying their respects to Yin Tianxia and Hu Yuexin, Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng accompanied Xue Chuqing in the Bright Connection Valley for a while. Then, they bade farewell and left.
With a thought, they teleported out of the Sky beyond Skies and the Zhu Luo Royal Reed Heaven. Very quickly, they appeared within the vast void.
After a while, a white-clothed man appeared within their sights. It was the Exalted Solar Luminary – Gao Han.
Gao Han and Ling Qing had always been close to the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor.
During the Nine Underworlds Layout, Yan Zhaoge had a conflict with the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor. Now that they met again, it wasn't awkward.
Gao Han bowed towards Yan Zhaoge upon seeing him, "Thank you, Daoist Yan. You eliminated the Immortal Court, exterminated the heretics, and supported our Daoism's orthodox lineage."
In the past, when Yan Zhaoge wreaked havoc in the Immortal Court with the Golden Body of the Great Sage, Gao Han had tried to stop him.
However, at this moment, he bowed towards Yan Zhaoge with a solemn expression that had never been seen before, "Thinking back to before and after the Great Calamity, it's enough to comfort my entire life."
Yan Zhaoge looked at him quietly, "Daoist brother, you don't have to be like this. As you said, I'm also a Daoism lineage."
"I still haven't congratulated Daoist brother Gao for ascending to the Grand Heavenly Realm and achieving everlasting freedom."
Feng Yunsheng was also sizing Gao Han up and down. Then, she said, "Congratulations, Daoist brother, for ascending to the Grand Heavenly Realm and achieving everlasting freedom."
Gao Han had also attained the Five Qis Unification and Three Flowers Converged Crown, achieving the Grand Heavenly Immortal Realm.
After Suo Mingzhang and Jiang Shen who had joined the heretics, the World beyond Worlds' New Kunlun Nine Luminaries had produced a third Grand Heavenly Immortal.
After the Great Calamity, he was also the fifth Grand Heavenly Immortal produced by orthodox Daoism, other than Suo Mingzhang, Feng Yunsheng, and Yan Zhaoge.
"My Daoism has been prospering day by day, which is why I'm here today. Speaking of which, I still have to thank the two of you," said Gao Han.
Yan Zhaoge looked at Gao Han quietly, "Since it's so easy to contact Daoist brother Gao, and you're willing to meet me, it seems like eight hundred years ago, Daoist brother Gao did have other intentions?"
In the past, during Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng's wedding, Gao Han's congratulatory words sounded like idle chatter. However, Yan Zhaoge found it weird.
Now, he had some guesses about the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor's actions. Comparing it with Gao Han's words in the past, he became even more suspicious.
Which led to their meeting today.
Yan Zhaoge didn't bother with pleasantries and went straight to the point, "What did Daoist brother Gao mean by your words in the past?"
