While Zhou Yang was thinking about how to develop the top worlds, Tongtian returned to the Investiture of the Gods and started planning for the Investiture of the Gods War.
During the Investiture of the Gods War, the Clan of Enlightenment supported Western Zhou while the Clan of Jie supported Yinshang.
Initially, Tongtian did not intervene in the Investiture of the Gods War because it was Hongjun's decree. He just sat in the Aquamarine Palace and waited for the result.
However, the Clan of Enlightenment suffered heavy losses and the Clan of Enlightenment pressed on, so Tongtian took action. However, the outcome was already decided and he lost the chance to turn the tables.
"I don't know what the new Imperial Tutor is up to. He orders us to search for elixirs in the deep mountains and forests every day. Many people have died in the mouths of wild beasts."
"I heard that the Imperial Tutor wants to refine the Elixir of Immortality, so he needs to gather all kinds of exotic minerals and produce."
"Also, I'll tell you a small piece of news. I heard that this Elixir of Immortality was refined by the State Preceptor for the King."
"Doesn't that mean the King will be immortal?"
… …
Tongtian knew that the Investiture of the Gods War was a competition between the top masters of Yinshang and Western Zhou. The side with more Sages would have a higher chance of winning.
With the advantage of foresight, Tongtian knew that if he promised certain conditions, it would not be a problem to win over the two Sages and Goddess Nvywa.
However, Tongtian did not intend to do so. He wanted to rob the Sages of all their assets.
However, the Western Zhou army had a good reason to destroy the Shang Dynasty. King Zhou had done many things that angered the heavens and the people.
Now, Tongtian planned to build Yinshang into a prosperous and powerful country. He wanted to see what excuse Western Zhou would use to attack Yinshang.
"Who is the new Imperial Tutor of Yinshang?"
In the city of Chao Ge, Tongtian disguised himself as a white-haired old man and covered his tracks. He frowned when he heard a group of patrolling soldiers talking.
Although King Zhou was a mortal, he was an emperor and could not cultivate. This new Imperial Tutor dared to refine the Elixir of Immortality for King Zhou. Either he was an ignorant Rogue Cultivator or he was acting recklessly.
"It would be interesting if I'm not a lone cultivator."
With a faint smile on his face, Sect Leader Tongtian pinched his fingers and calculated the location of the new Imperial Tutor's residence. Then, he flew over.
Chaoge City, Imperial College.
"Four three-thousand-year-old Ganoderma, one Silver Spirit Flower, ten Scarlet Fruits …"
Inside the Imperial College, Shen Gongbao squatted in front of a huge red wooden box, carefully arranging the treasures inside.
Under his bewitchment, King Zhou ordered the soldiers of the Shang Dynasty to find these treasures in the mountains, and some of them were bought from hunters or merchants.
"This speed is too slow. I wonder when will I be able to gather enough value points?"
Shen Gongbao said angrily.
What kind of Di Zun was he? He was actually bewitched by a few words of his and went to attack the Master God's Space. If he didn't agree, he would probably still be living a happy life in Wanjie Lou, reaching the peak of his life.
Now, not only did he have to deal with King Zhou, but he also had to deal with Grand Tutor Wen and a group of ministers in the court every day. He was almost bored to death.
"Maybe I can sneak back to Wanjie Lou, trade these treasures, and buy some goods to improve my strength."
Shen Gongbao was tempted. He also understood that as long as he was careful and didn't get discovered by Di Zun, he would be fine.
Moreover, he had been away from Wanjie Lou for a long time. He also wanted to know how far Wanjie Lou had developed.
Of course, if Di Zun found his whereabouts, he would be in big trouble.
Maybe Di Zun would think that he was provoking him. If Di Zun was angry and went to the original world, he would be in big trouble.
"Alas, when can I have the strength to suppress Di Zun and become the owner of Kunlun Mountain?"
Shen Gongbao sighed again and again. Several times, he almost couldn't help but want to sneak back to Kunlun Mountain and steal those Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth.
Without enough value points, when could he have strong strength? Without strong strength, he would have to worry about the existence of Di Zun.
"Shen Gongbao, you are ambitious."
Sect Leader Tongtian entered the Imperial College. He waved his hand to cover the Heaven Secret of the Imperial College and walked in slowly.
At the same time, he changed back to his original appearance. With a playful smile on his face, he walked toward Shen Gongbao. He didn't expect that he would find a customer of Wanjie Lou in the original world.
Moreover, this customer of Wanjie Lou was a key figure in the War of Gods Investiture. Nine out of ten disciples of the Tribe of Severity were bewitched by Shen Gongbao to go down the mountain and suffer the disaster.
However, Sect Leader Tongtian didn't have any opinion about Shen Gongbao. Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya were just inevitable products of the Cultivation Tribulation. Without Shen Gongbao, the disciples of the Tribe of Severity would also be involved in the War of Gods Investiture for other reasons.
"Fortunately, Shen Gongbao entered Wanjie Lou."
Sect Leader Tongtian secretly felt lucky. Shen Gongbao was not favored in the Tribe of Severity, so he didn't have any sense of belonging to Kunlun Mountain. If it were other disciples of the Tribe of Severity, they might recommend Yuanshi Tianzun to be Wanjie Lou's customer.
If Yuanshi Tianzun became Wanjie Lou's customer, Sect Leader Tongtian couldn't imagine how miserable he would be in the War of Gods Investiture. Buddha was Sect Leader Tongtian of the Dao World. With a broken sword and a green bull as his mount, he might be killed by Yuanshi Tianzun.
"Who is it?"
Shen Gongbao heard the playful voice behind him. He was so scared that he fell to the ground and kept stepping back. The magic treasures on him also flew out, trying to kill the person who found out his secret.
However, when he turned around and saw the owner of the voice, he was stunned. His face turned pale, and his mind trembled.
He didn't expect that the person who appeared behind him was the leader of the Tribe of Severity, Sect Leader Tongtian, one of the most powerful people in the original world.
"Martial Uncle!"
Shen Gongbao suppressed the fear in his heart and hurriedly bowed. However, his legs didn't listen to him and were trembling violently.
Regardless of whether Sect Leader Tongtian suspected Wanjie Lou, Sect Leader Tongtian wouldn't spare him just because he wanted to replace Yuanshi Tianzun.
"I didn't expect you to be Wanjie Lou's customer. I also joined Wanjie Lou."
Seeing Shen Gongbao's frightened expression, Sect Leader Tongtian casually sat on a black futon on the ground and said with a smile.
With his status and strength, he didn't need to threaten Shen Gongbao.
However, the smile on Sect Leader Tongtian's face didn't make Shen Gongbao feel relieved at all. Instead, he became more afraid.
Sect Leader Tongtian had become Wanjie Lou's customer, and he was also Wanjie Lou's customer. Would Sect Leader Tongtian kill him for monopolizing the original world's resources?
After all, his strength was not at the same level as Sect Leader Tongtian at all. The gap between them was too big. Sect Leader Tongtian could kill him with just a breath.
Thinking of this possibility, Shen Gongbao trembled more violently. Bean-sized sweat beaded on his forehead like a rainstorm. In a short while, a large water stain was formed on the ground.
"How about joining my Tribe of Severity?"
Sect Leader Tongtian waved his hand to let Shen Gongbao stand up and said casually.
"Greetings, Master."
As soon as Sect Leader Tongtian's voice faded, Shen Gongbao kowtowed. The fear in his heart instantly turned into deep surprise. He knew that his opportunity might have come.
If he joined the Tribe of Severity, he would have Sect Leader Tongtian as his backer in Wanjie Lou. He wouldn't be afraid of Venerable Sovereigns. No matter how strong Venerable Sovereigns were, they couldn't be as strong as Sect Leader Tongtian, a Sage.
"From now on, you must assist King Zhou and be a loyal minister."
Sect Leader Tongtian nodded slightly and warned him.
