"General, the Eighteenth Heaven is right ahead!"
In the Celestial World, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing led his million elite Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals from the most important door of the Lingxiao Hall, the headquarters of the Celestial Court in the Thirty-Second Heaven. They rushed all the way down to the Eighteenth Heaven!
Even though they had received orders from the Celestial Court to guard every Heaven, they did not receive orders to take the initiative to attack. However, when they saw that the person who came was the famous Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing, who had a supreme position in the Celestial Court's military, the guards did not dare to stop him. Even the itinerant cultivators and immortals living in each Heaven spontaneously organized themselves and moved towards the Eighteenth Heaven with the army to participate in the battle.
"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country! Back then, when I descended to the mortal world to travel, I heard a scholar say this and sighed. I didn't expect to personally witness this moment today. The survival of the six realms concerns the living beings of the six realms. We are not the saviors, but the vanguard. In order to protect the living beings of the six realms, as soldiers, we must take the lead and stop the enemy. The survival of the six realms is everyone's responsibility! "
Li Jing looked at the huge army behind him. He could not see how many itinerant cultivators there were. Moreover, this huge torrent was still growing. He immediately felt extremely emotional. Since ancient times, there were very few people who could become immortals. However, that was only what the world saw. In fact, after the birth of the Celestial Court, countless people had ascended. However, those who were able to ascend to the Immortal World must have a high cultivation base. Their temperament and other aspects must also be extremely outstanding. Perhaps they would spend their entire lives cultivating in the grotto-heavens or deep mountains and forests. Even if they ascended, outsiders would not know.
There were strong and weak ascenders. The difference in treatment between the strong and the weak was naturally huge. Although the Celestial Court was the orthodox of the six realms on the surface, in reality, there were very few people who could control it. If not for the existence of Ancestral Master Hongjun, the protection of the Three Pure Ones, and the support of these great gods, the Celestial Court would not exist. However, even so, there were many people who pretended to comply but secretly opposed in some places.
Although the Celestial Court was where the immortals lived, so what if they were immortals? They could not escape the seven emotions and six desires! In the Heavenly Court, there were also factional disputes, camps, and open and covert struggles. Those cultivators who were famous in the eyes of the world would naturally be able to obtain the position of Principal God and be ranked among the immortals. They would be worshipped by the people of the world. These were all cultivators with powerful backers. There was also the idol that the Heavenly Courts had created for the sake of their reputation. They had chosen a spokesperson to make the mortals of the lower realms have all sorts of good thoughts about the Heavenly Courts. For example, there was a coastal woman who possessed spiritual power. She entered the sea to save people and won the hearts of the people. She was chosen by the Heavenly Court and used her kindness and reputation in the hearts of the people to allow her to ascend and become a righteous god. Her name was — Mazu!
However, these were all in the minority. Who knew how many of those who had truly ascended? Moreover, as a part of the Mortal Realm, even though it was a very special part where many ancient great gods were born, it was only a corner of the Mortal Realm. There were even more ascenders in the other planes of the mortal world. However, most of these ascenders were buried in the torrent of history.
To put it bluntly, the Heavenly Court was just an imperial court. However, its territory was extremely large and belonged to the category of a super empire. Those who participated in politics in the Lingxiao Hall were equivalent to civil and military officials who were ranked in the imperial court. Those who could ascend to the heavens in one step and participate in the imperial court were few and far between. Those who could be bestowed the title of Principal God and be ranked among the immortals were also few and far between. Most of the ascenders were like people from the Mortal Realm who had ascended to become people of the Immortal Realm. Even though their level was different, they were still just people.
The thirty-two heavens were where the Lingxiao Hall of the Heavenly Court was located. It was equivalent to the imperial city of the mortal imperial court! The thirty-one heavens below were equivalent to the other cities of this huge empire. Many ascenders lived there. They could not be ranked among the immortals, but they could live in the Immortal Realm. These ascenders did not have as many rules as the Principal Gods of the Heavenly Court. They could form dual cultivation partners and reproduce the next generation.
For those in the Immortal Realm who were ranked among the immortals, added to the immortal records, and became "officials" among the immortals. They could even enter the Lingxiao Hall and participate in the imperial court. These so-called ascenders, people, were basically equivalent to ants. They were just slightly stronger than those ants in the Mortal Realm.
However, what Li Jing saw now made him exclaim in amazement. These people, who were looked down upon in the eyes of the First Grade Great Gods, were now able to erupt with such terrifying power. It made him, who was used to all kinds of storms and waves, feel a palpitating power. The densely packed crowd was like a terrifying torrent of the Milky Way. Whoever dared to block it would definitely be reduced to ashes.
Now, the one million soldiers following him were the most elite soldiers of Li Jing's Li family army. Li Jing had absolute confidence in them. No matter how powerful the demon whelps of the Devil Race were, they would be able to exert their most powerful fighting strength. They would certainly give a head-on blow to the demon whelps who had swept through the seventeenth layer of heaven and whose morale was at its peak.
However, after seeing the terrifying monstrous "torrent", Li Jing's thoughts disappeared. Even if these one million most elite heavenly soldiers and generals, each of them had a legitimate immortal record ranked among the immortals, and their strength was superb. But once they fought with those people whose strength was uneven and who had not undergone formal training, they were like the barbarians of the forest. No matter how strong they were, they would fail. They would be swallowed until not even their bones were left.
Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat!
This was a sentence that Taizong Li Shimin said when he had descended to the mortal realm and transformed into a fierce general, serving a wise ruler of a generation, serving a great empire called the Tang Dynasty!
It was only today that he finally understood everything!
The people were the masters of the country, not the king!
The living beings of the six realms were the masters of the six realms, not the Jade Emperor, not the Three Pure Ones, and not even Hongjun alone!
"Brothers, follow me, kill, cleanse the demons, and return the six realms a bright universe! Whether it is the soldiers under me, or the non-heavenly soldiers and generals from various places. At this moment, everyone is of one mind! We only have one purpose! We are brothers, we are comrades-in-arms! No matter what the outcome is, we have done our best. Although the demons are fierce, we will never retreat. I, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing, will take the lead and fight to the death. I will never retreat! "
Li Jing took a deep breath, and his eyes became incomparably firm. With the help of the secret method of voice transmission, his sonorous and majestic voice resounded through the world, accurately conveying to everyone's ears.
