This is so dishonest!

Chapter 371 Is Yinghuo pregnant? Is she Nuwa's child? [Two chapters combined, 6k]

With the establishment of the Heavenly Court, everything was renewed.

A rain of merit fell for nine days and nine nights.

All the gods, immortals, and countless beings benefited greatly from this grand ceremony, and were overjoyed and beaming with happiness.

"Homage to the Heavenly Emperor Taiwei!"

"Homage to the Heavenly Court of Taiwei!"

Xuanqing opened the heavens and established the Heavenly Court, truly achieving the status of being revered by all three realms and supported by all directions!
"The grand opening ceremony is complete. Fellow Daoists, please follow us into the Taiwei Golden Palace to share this feast!" Behind [Supreme Jupiter] Fuxi, Bai Ze stepped forward.

He led a group of ceremonial officials, gods, fairies, and messengers, holding up pairs of banners and canopies, guiding the assembled deities to the Taiwei Golden Palace.

The gods gathered, ascended the golden palace, climbed the jade tower, went up the cloud platform, and entered the treasure palace.

Fragrant and auspicious scents drifted in the air, while celestial music and mystical songs resounded throughout the void.

There was no distinction between main and secondary seats in the entire venue; everyone sat down casually in twos and threes.

In this area, the Great Luo and the Lesser Immortals chatted and drank merrily; in that celestial palace, the White Tiger and the Dragon and Phoenix lived in peace, enjoying wine and conversation.

On the covered bridges and jade terraces, immortals chat and laugh; in the past, in the void, there were also sacred beings discussing the Dao.

The dishes displayed on the table are also arranged in an unconventional manner.

There are innate spiritual fruits, acquired nectar, evil god meat, dynamic mushrooms, and roasted roc wings.
They have everything from formal to exotic, set menus to buffets.

A hundred kinds of divine delicacies, a thousand kinds of flavors, change with the gods, and are different with the immortals.

Even though it's the same ingredient, some deities felt refreshed and in great health after eating it.

Some immortals ate it and laughed and cried, embracing each other and pouring out their hearts.

What's even more interesting is that this celebration banquet not only exists in the real celestial realm, but also in the dream world and the virtual world.

The Taiwei Heavenly Court used its supreme magical power to select sentient beings of various cultivation stages, races, and regions from among the countless beings in the primordial Three Realms.

They might have been given a dream or invited to a spiritual realm to participate in a fantastical feast.

That night, countless beings entered their dreams, and the cyber feast was held!
They dreamed that they ascended to heaven and rejoiced with the divine;

Many low-level cultivators dream that they receive guidance from powerful beings and their cultivation advances by leaps and bounds.

The blessings of this grand feast spread throughout the land in a wondrous way.

"This banquet is quite unique, and it seems everyone is very satisfied. Fellow Daoist Zhenxing is truly thoughtful."

Xuanqing and Taishang changed their forms and wandered around, eventually finding Zhenyuanzi in the Dynamic Mushroom Zone.

As a great gourmet in the prehistoric world, having Zhen Yuanzi arrange the banquet couldn't be more suitable!

Zhen Yuanzi, who had transformed into the Mushroom King, humbly said, "I only offered some suggestions; it was mainly our Taiwei Food Gods who were truly helpful."

"Oh, by the way, this group of food gods were recruited from the Demonic Path. They are all highly skilled and have excellent culinary abilities!"

Zhen Yuanzi was generous with his praise for his subordinates.

Xuanqing and the Supreme Being exchanged a glance after hearing this.

When did the Demonic Cultivation Sect start training a Food God? How come we didn't know?
Although as a deity, one can easily master the three thousand great Daos, it's not a bad thing to also cultivate culinary skills.

After all, Demon Ancestor Rahu was a master of cooking, and the first gathering of the Demonic Cult was a meal personally prepared by Rahu.

But I haven't heard of Luo Hou passing on this skill.
Could it be...?

Xuanqing and Taishang almost simultaneously thought of a possibility.

They turned their heads discreetly, their divine senses sweeping over several particularly lively areas of the banquet.

really!

During the banquet, Fu Zhu, the eldest disciple of the Chan Sect, and Meng Huai, the second disciple, who had returned from their trials in the heavens, were dressed up as the God of Food with a group of fellow disciples.

Dressed in specially made divine costumes with matching flame and auspicious cloud patterns, they were all beaming with joy as they moved through the various sections of the banquet, enthusiastically introducing the various delicacies to the gods and collecting feedback.

"Hello everyone! We are the chief culinary team for this Heavenly Feast – 'Food of the Three Realms'!"

"Fellow Daoists, are you satisfied with the delicious food we have prepared?"

Meng Huai was holding a specially made list when he found two iron-eating beasts that had just finished a set of aerobics.

These two iron-eating beasts were huge and adorable, and were panting heavily at the moment.

"I'm satisfied, but could you please improve this next time? Eating jade bamboo shoots only turns you into an iron-eating beast. I hope you can transform into something else, like a green snake."

After the iron-eating beast finished two sets of gymnastics, it naturally recovered and transformed back into a graceful immortal in green robes, holding a jade flute.

He stretched and then ticked off the list that Meng Huai had given him.

"Thank you for your support, fellow Daoist! Thank you for your valuable advice, fellow Daoist!"

Meng Huai smiled professionally and nodded repeatedly, "We have noted down your suggestion!"

"We will definitely continue to improve next time, striving to give every diner a brand new experience!"

"Hey, why does he only need to do two sets of gymnastics to recover, while I've already done eighteen sets and I'm still not back to my original form!" Just as Meng Huai was about to leave, another iron-eating beast called out to him.

Meng Huai stopped, looked again at the pure Iron-Eating Beast aura emanating from it, and tentatively asked, "Fellow Daoist, your true form is an Iron-Eating Beast, so you don't need to revert to your original form, do you?"

"Ah? Right...right!" Upon hearing this, the iron-eating beast's large eyes, hidden beneath its enormous dark circles, momentarily went blank, as if it had just awakened from some kind of cycle.

Only then did he belatedly stop what he was doing, plop down on the ground, panting heavily.

On the other side, the Phoenix Clan's Vermilion Bird Goddess, dressed in a fiery red palace gown, was radiant and beautiful. She happened to run into Fuzhu, who was patrolling the buffet area.

A young man in a tailcoat was counting gold coins right next to Fuzhu.

His footsteps were light and silent.

"Fellow Daoist Ke, please don't put your food out yet, in case everyone gets sick." Fuzhu spoke carefully with the young man.

“Alright, since you’ve already paid for the travel expenses, it’s fine if you don’t make money on food expenses.” The young man gave an elegant smile.

"Fellow Daoist Food God, may I ask you a question?"

The Vermilion Bird God stepped forward, first glancing curiously at the young man, then asking Fuzhu, "In this self-service area, we can freely choose our own food, right?"

"Ah, yes! Greetings, Vermilion Bird God!" Fuzhu quickly bowed and nodded with a smile.

"Our banquets in the Taiwei Heavenly Court emphasize freedom and spontaneity."

"Not only can you freely combine food according to your own taste, but if you have any special ingredients or cooking ideas, we also provide blank kitchen counters and basic seasonings. You can even cook for yourself and add your favorite dishes!"

"Really?"

Suzaku's eyes shone.

"Thank you fellow Taoist for your advice!"

She excitedly led several elders of the Phoenix Clan to the self-service area.

Before long, the gods in the self-service area tasted a delicacy called "Hot and Spicy".

"As everyone knows, our Phoenix Clan is unique in the Way of Fire. Today, you can learn about our Great Way of Fire through this delicacy!"

Then, under Zhuque's guidance, everyone started dancing a hot otaku dance!
At the same time, Wutong also started a live broadcast on the StarNet.

"Family members, it's food time today! Let's have some fun!"

"The new dance tutorial from the Taixu World is here for everyone!"

Her account's comment section instantly exploded, with messages flooding in like a waterfall:
"Sister Qing Tong! It's the real Sister Qing Tong! I love you so much!"

"Ahhh, my Qing Tong, you're so beautiful! Your dance moves are so captivating!"

"Wait a minute! Isn't that Ye Hua, the Divine Lord of our Qian Yuan Great World, leading the dance? Why is he dancing a home-style dance here?!"

"My God, what am I seeing! Isn't that God Zhe Yuan?! He...he...he..."

"And there's also the Divine Heroine, the Supreme Mysterious Immortal, the Wondrous Peaceful Sovereign, the Free and Easy God Lord... Oh my god, the Great God Pangu! This is practically a top-tier dance troupe for otaku, they're going to be a sensation on the Star Network!"

As expected, the "Hot and Spicy Home Dance Troupe" in the self-service area quickly became a hit on Xingwang with its unique charm and powerful "infectiousness".

It became one of the most popular "attractions" at this Heavenly Feast.

"Hehehe... Sister, tell them to stop jumping! I feel like my immortal body is about to burst into flames!"

"My master asked me why it spontaneously combusted, and I said it was too hot!"

"Hehe, it's so hot, so hot!"

Looking at the rapidly increasing number of viewers and donations in the live stream, Wutong smiled with satisfaction: "It seems that everyone understands the Fire Dao of our Phoenix Clan!"

The White Tiger God glanced at the self-service area and silently turned away.

"Hey? Isn't this Fellow Daoist Jianbing?" Zhenwu, looking hurried, bumped into Baihu, quickly stepped forward, grabbed his sleeve, and said urgently, "It's not safe here, come with me!"

"What's wrong?" Baihu didn't realize what had happened and felt completely confused.

He's already left the self-service area. Didn't you notice any other danger?
Suddenly, a childlike nursery rhyme drifted over.

"Little white rabbit, white and white, with two ears standing up straight."

Baihu looked behind Zhenwu and saw a petite and adorable goddess distributing carrots to a group of children and leading them in singing.

"What's so dangerous about this?" Baihu asked, puzzled.

"Don't look, don't listen!" Zhenwu shouted.

However, it was still too late.

The next moment, the white tiger's vision blurred, and he walked towards it as if possessed.

As he walked, his burly figure gradually shrank, and he became a fair-skinned little boy.

"Little white rabbit, white and white, with two ears standing up straight~~"

The little white tiger clapped its hands and happily followed the children to get their carrots.

"Don't worry, don't worry, we have them all!" Xiaoyue Shen Changxi's voice was lively and melodious, and a sly smile appeared in her eyes.

"Oh dear, I've already made you come with me."

Zhenwu sighed.

This entire area has been turned into a massive array; going up there will just get you fed carrots!

Why didn't you say so sooner!

Three breaths later, the White Tiger God, having finished eating the radish, covered his face with his sleeve and hurriedly left with Zhenwu.

"Fellow Daoist Meng Zhang, there's something fun over there." Halfway there, they ran into the Azure Dragon again, and the White Tiger "kindly" pointed out a path to him.

"is it?"

Qinglong, without giving it any further thought, walked over out of curiosity.

"Hey!" Zhenwu didn't even have time to stop him.

"Run!" White Tiger's lips curled up, and he felt instantly relieved. He took off running.

Not long after, the Azure Dragon returned, carrying half a radish in its mouth.

His face flushed red with embarrassment, and he shouted angrily, "Soldier, don't run away!"

In a corner, Di Jun watched the immortals and gods at the banquet displaying their unique abilities and creating all sorts of antics, and his lips twitched repeatedly: "After the Heavenly Emperor abdicates, are these the guys I'll be managing?"

"Can I really do this?"

At this moment, Di Jun's heart was pounding.

He felt he had to speed up the process of building his team, otherwise he wouldn't be able to keep up with the updates of the "Heavenly Emperor's Reincarnation Scripture"!
It must be said that the celestial banquet was exceptionally lively and full of unexpected surprises.

Similarly, it was also quite terrifyingly insane!
The gods of the Primordial Realm were completely at ease in the venue, having a great time and adapting very well to the atmosphere.

The guests who had traveled from all the heavens and the myriad worlds were dumbfounded and full of amazement throughout the entire journey.

Having just witnessed the solemn and majestic opening ceremony of the Heavenly Court, they were now seeing such a lively and unique banquet, and exclaimed that it was an eye-opener.

"Is this the Supreme Heavenly Court of the Primordial True Realm? It is indeed different!"

"No wonder the saints who came out of the Primordial True Realm are all terrifyingly strong and can play with the heavens at will. It turns out that something was not quite right from the start!"

"I've learned a lot! I'll go back and start promoting the advanced experience from the prehistoric era!"

The gods of all realms said they had gained a great deal.

Coming to the prehistoric world to attend the banquet of the Supreme Heavenly Court was absolutely the right decision!
【No, that's not how it is in our prehistoric world!】

You should learn from our Taiwei Yuan spirit of mutual love, unity, and care for all living beings!

Seeing that everyone was about to go astray, His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, who was righteous and upright, decided to step forward.

He transformed back into his true form, raised the glass cup in his hand, and spoke in a gentle voice that resonated throughout the entire Taiwei Golden Palace.

"Fellow Daoists."

"Today, the Taiwei Heavenly Court is established. This is not the achievement of one person alone, but the result of the Great Dao's will, the assistance of all the gods, the wishes of all spirits, and the fruit of our united efforts and shared goals!" "I raise a toast to you all!"

"Homage to the Heavenly Emperor!"

All the deities, whether supreme beings or ordinary immortals, rose and raised their cups, their voices converging into a torrent that echoed throughout the golden palace.

The nectar went down my throat, sweet and refreshing, and a warm current rose from my stomach, cleansing my soul and bringing indescribable comfort.

Xuanqing put down his wine cup and continued, "The primordial world has gone through many calamities before it achieved its current state of unity and prosperity."

"All of this is now in the past."

"But we must not forget the past, for it is a guide to the future. The Taiwei Heavenly Court should inherit all the past glories, mend all the rifts, and create a new era of true prosperity for all races and the flourishing of the Great Dao!"

"I hope that from this day forward, there will be no more infighting in the primordial world, only mutual help and support."

"There will be no more prejudice or barriers, only openness and inclusiveness."

"Within the order of the Taiwei Heavenly Court, all beings of the Three Thousand Great Daos can flourish and prosper together!"

"The Heavenly Emperor is wise and benevolent!"

The gods below once again praised in unison, their eyes filled with anticipation for the future.

Kunpeng was deeply moved. He felt that his educational philosophy of "standardization" and "personalization" coincided with the Heavenly Emperor's "letting a hundred flowers bloom".

He secretly resolved to make greater achievements in this field of "education," to share the burden of the Heavenly Emperor, and to lay a more solid foundation for the spread of his barbecue culture.

Di Jun nodded with a smile, expressing his deep agreement with Xuan Qing's statement.

Yes, that's right!

We must unite, not fight; we must have peace, not chaos!

[The Heavenly Emperor truly deserves to be called a role model in the primordial world. He never forgets his original aspiration and mission. His saintly virtue is truly radiant!]

While admiring Xuan Qing, Di Jun was even more pleased to see the burning gaze in Kun Peng's eyes.

[Fellow Daoist Kunpeng probably agrees with the Heavenly Emperor's philosophy, right? I've truly chosen the right god!]

He raised his wine glass and offered a distant toast to the Kunpeng.

Kunpeng's smile widened in response.

During the banquet, the atmosphere became increasingly lively.

"With this song, I pay homage to the Heavenly Emperor, to all the gods, and to all living beings!"

【The Venerable One of the Year Star】Fuxi, in high spirits, took out his zither and gently plucked the strings with his slender fingers.

In an instant, heavenly music resounded, like a mountain stream, cleansing the soul and leading people to the path.

"We've been waiting for the dancers!"

The Phoenix Clan elders made their debut with their newly trained dance troupe, winning rave reviews from the entire audience!
"Fellow Daoist Kronos."

While gathering inspiration for her writing, Houtu suddenly approached the twelve Titans and asked, "What do you fellow Daoists think of my Primordial True Realm?"

The Titan named Cronus asked very humbly, "May I ask your esteemed name, fellow traveler?"

Houtu smiled gently: "The fairy of tales, Wupan!"

"So it's Fellow Daoist Wu Pan! I've heard so much about you!"

Kronos made a polite remark, and then said, "The Primordial True Realm and the Supreme Heavenly Court have truly broadened our horizons!"

The eleven Titan companions behind him nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with affirmation.

Putting aside everything else, the scenes before the Heavenly Emperor gave his speech were something their pantheon could never replicate.

"Is that how you feel?" Houtu nodded gently and asked, "May I ask if I can learn about your story?"

“Of course!” The Titans were delighted and very willing to share.

Letting more gods know about their pantheon is also a way to expand one's influence!
This skill is their purpose in attending the Heavenly Court Assembly.

"When you first arrived, you told me that your world has a Mother Earth?" Houtu asked curiously.

"Yes, that is our mother."

The Titans nodded and began to tell Houtu about their pantheon and various stories.

Houtu listened intently, her beautiful eyes sparkling with excitement.

She had a very pleasant conversation with the Titans.

[Hmm, not bad, everyone finally understands the true purpose of our Taiwei Heavenly Court!]

After the Heavenly Emperor delivered a proper speech, the atmosphere in the Taiwei Golden Palace finally changed.

Xuanqing looked around and was very satisfied.

Everyone talked freely about the Great Dao, exchanged their experiences in cultivation, and planned for future development, creating a harmonious and joyful atmosphere.

All the causes and effects of the past seem to have vanished at this moment.

The banquet lasted for seven days.

Throughout the event, music played continuously, and laughter filled the air.

Finally, Xuanqing raised his glass again: "Gentlemen, today's banquet marks the beginning of a new era."

"The future of the Primordial True Realm and all the myriad worlds needs to be forged by you and me together."

May my primordial world be prosperous and all things flourish, and may all beings be healthy and well!

May all the heavens and worlds prosper, and may all beings find peace and happiness!

The gods responded in unison, their voices resounding throughout the universe.

After the banquet, the gods, filled with joy and boundless anticipation for the future, dispersed.

Have you all learned from the advanced experiences of the prehistoric era?

Of course, the things that are inadvertently revealed and taken for granted are the core inheritance of the Supreme True Realm!

So you mean the Heavenly Emperor is just trying to fool us when he talks about unity, struggle, and mutual love?

No, the virtue of the Heavenly Emperor shines eternally, the actions of the gods are true, and what the Heavenly Emperor says is also true.

[Indeed, the Heavenly Emperor's words and actions are always meaningful. I believe he actually wants us to learn from the changes before and after this banquet, so that we can understand them and better adapt to the development of the new era.]

[Indeed, fellow Daoist's insight is profound!]

The powerful figures from various timelines happily shared their gains.

In the heavens, the Heavenly Emperor let out a deep sigh.

"You've really misunderstood. We, the Primordial World, are very serious!"

~~~~~
With the grand opening ceremony concluded and the gods returned to their positions, the work of the Taiwei Heavenly Court commenced in full swing.

Heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, the vast wilderness, and boundless time and space are all within the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court.

Fortunately, all those meetings held at Taiwei Enclosure in the past were not in vain.

Countless years ago, they made various plans and action plans regarding the Heavenly Court.

Now, as long as the plans and contingency plans are followed, the Taiwei Heavenly Court can operate smoothly.

"I told you we're all legitimate gods!"

Xuanqing worked diligently in the Heavenly Realm for three thousand years. After confirming that the fortune of the Taiwei Heavenly Court was completely stable, he chose to slack off.

"Oh right, I need to leave behind a Daoist avatar for stamping!"

Before leaving, Xuanqing made a "stamped Heavenly Emperor" stamp and then happily skipped work.

The True Lord Yousheng, who was on duty outside the Tongming Hall, pretended that he hadn't seen anything.

The Heavenly Emperor arrived at the Star Gazing Platform, observing the workings of the primordial world and the heavens. He nodded with satisfaction: "The Three Realms are at peace, and the primordial world is tranquil. This feeling of prosperity is truly wonderful."

"Eh, wait?"

Xuanqing observed the celestial sphere and suddenly noticed a slight change in the planet Mars.

People actually live on the planet Mars?
This is quite a strange thing.

Just like there's no Heavenly Emperor in the Heavenly Emperor's Palace now.

There is no Supreme Lord Yinghuo in the Divine Star of Yinghuo.

For a long time, the Supreme Venerables of Taiwei have rarely visited their own "natal" divine stars.

For example, Xuanqing's own Jidu Divine Star, ever since he learned to reverse the use of the Ghost Gate and directly connect to all the heavens and myriad realms, he has never been there again.

You can go straight to Taiwei Enclosure by opening the door; there's no need to disguise yourself as Ketu God Star.

"Go and see."

Xuan Qing calculated for a moment, then revealed a look of understanding.

Then, he strolled through the starry sky and arrived outside the planet Mars.

"Fellow Daoist, may I have a meeting?"

Xuanqing's thoughts broke through all the restrictions.

"Heavenly Emperor, please!"

The Venerable Yinghuo is indeed among them.

She did not appear.

A divine radiance guided Xuanqing into the divine star.

"Congratulations fellow Taoist!"

Upon arriving at the Yinghuo Divine Palace, Xuanqing immediately offered his congratulations to the Supreme Lord Yinghuo.

"The Heavenly Emperor was indeed aware of it."

【Yinghuo Shangzun】Yuan Huang sighed slightly, a hint of helplessness appearing on her beautiful face.

"Can you tell me what happened?"

Xuan Qing looked at Yuan Huang. Although it wasn't obvious from her appearance, she was indeed pregnant.

Yuan Huang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually, strictly speaking, this was an accident."

"Is it related to supernatural powers?" Xuanqing's tone was almost certain.

Yuan Huang gave a soft "hmm" and added, "It's also related to Fellow Daoist Nuwa."

Xuan Qing blinked: "The child is hers?"

Yuan Huang thought for a moment and said, "If you ask it that way, it's not entirely wrong, but it's not entirely right either."

Then, Yuanhuang explained what had happened to Xuanqing.

“Fellow Daoist Nuwa, aren’t you an expert in the Dao of Creation? Because of my injuries, I suddenly had an inspiration and decided to combine the Dao of Creation to research a new healing-type divine power.”

"So I asked Fellow Daoist Nuwa for some wonderful methods of creation, and then I went back to study supernatural powers."

Xuanqing asked, "And then what happened?"

"Of course it was a success!"

Yuan Huang raised her chin slightly and said proudly, "Don't you even know who I am?"

"Not long after, I developed the corresponding great supernatural power!"

"This great supernatural power can manipulate heaven and earth, and is profound and capable of creating things from nothing, and turning death into life."

I named it: "Manipulating Creation!"

"What amazing power!" Xuan Qing exclaimed.

"Right?" Yuan Huang's lips curled slightly.

"With a single use of my supernatural power, all my injuries are instantly healed!"

"What about the side effects?" Xuanqing then asked.

Yuan Huang's expression instantly fell: "The side effect is that my child also came into existence out of thin air, directly created by fate."

"There are still two!"

She was a little emotionally distraught: "Oh dear, if I had known, I wouldn't have bothered researching these supernatural powers. I should have just gone straight to Nirvana!"
