Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

"If that's the case, then the Guanghan Realm will immediately become the next battlefield for the Holy War of Merit."

Then his 100,000 years of waiting would have been in vain.

"Are you threatening me? Or do you think I wouldn't dare to pledge allegiance to the Hell Realm? If you insist on this, then when the Guanghan Realm becomes a battlefield for the Holy War of Merit, I'll immediately turn around and go to the Hell Realm as a guest. I believe my old friends there will welcome me warmly. Ten thousand years ago, they all hoped I could become one of the gods of the Hell Realm. Now? I believe they will still welcome me. They are rather brutal, but they are much better than you hypocritical bastards. Am I right?"

Zhao Shuang's words immediately changed the expressions of all the gods present, because if Zhao Shuang were to go to the Underworld, the losses to the Heavenly Court would be enormous. In particular, the divine artifacts that Zhao Shuang had lent them would inevitably be taken back. As for their desire to completely refine them, they had not been able to do so for 100,000 years, let alone now.

It would be strange if they looked pleased under these circumstances. They certainly had the intention to kill Zhao Shuang, but they also knew that doing so would be tantamount to suicide; even if they survived, they would at least get a beating.

Although Zhao Shuang currently appears to be only at the Saint level, they are well aware that if he were truly in mortal danger, he would not hesitate to abandon this cycle of reincarnation and instantly reach his former peak strength. At that point, even if they joined forces to deal with Zhao Shuang, killing him would be highly unlikely.

After all, Zhao Shuang still has quite a few relatives and friends in the Heavenly Court. Those old friends will definitely not sit idly by, and there will definitely be huge trouble when the time comes.

The Heavenly Court will become a laughing stock, and at least those few will definitely become a laughing stock and sinners in the entire Heavenly Court.

"Why are you all silent now? You can threaten me with the Moon Realm, so why can't I threaten you with the Hell Realm? I know you want to kill me, but you need to have the strength to do so. If you don't even have that strength, then wanting to kill me is just as stupid as it was back then. Also, if you really want to kill me, you'd better do it now. This is your only chance. You will absolutely not have any more chances to kill me after this. You can rest assured about that; there will absolutely be no more chances."

Zhao Shuang's words made the faces of the gods in the Heavenly Court present extremely ugly. They really did not expect that Zhao Shuang would say such a thing and blatantly threaten them, but they had no choice but to accept Zhao Shuang's threat.

It should be said that they are simply no match for Zhao Shuang right now. The idea of ​​killing him to silence him and eliminate future troubles would have far too serious consequences, and they simply cannot afford to do so.

"Now, can you agree to let me participate in this Holy War of Merit? If you still don't agree, then don't blame me for being impolite. At that time, I will not only lead the Guanghan Realm to join the Hell Realm and the Kunlun Realm, but I will also join the Hell Realm. If even the Kunlun Realm joins the Hell Realm, then I won't mind sharing some of the good things in the Kunlun Realm with the Hell Realm. At that time, the Hell Realm will definitely become much stronger. Originally, the gap between you and the Hell Realm was already quite large, and you have always lost more than you have won. Now? Your chances of winning are not very high either. When the Kunlun Realm and the Guanghan Realm are completely integrated with the Hell Realm, the strength of the Hell Realm will definitely increase significantly. At that time, your chances of winning will be even lower."

“If you believe you can bear the consequences, you can now forbid me from participating in this holy war of merit.”

Zhao Shuang's words made all the gods in the Heavenly Court present look extremely ugly, but they still did not immediately agree.

The gods in the Heavenly Realm were especially unwilling to let Zhao Shuang help the Guanghan Realm overcome this crisis.

"Alright, I've made everything very clear and understandable. As for what to do, that's up to you. But I'll say it again: if you insist on preventing me from participating in this holy war of merit, then I will not be polite at all. In that case, I will take the Guanghan Realm and the Kunlun Realm and surrender to the Hell Realm."

"Moon Goddess, let's go. Let these guys think it over carefully."

After saying this, Zhao Shuang took the Moon Goddess's hand and left the space bubble.

Although the Moon Goddess tried to struggle, she ultimately didn't resist Zhao Shuang's grasp and instead led him away. After they left, before the Moon Goddess could say anything, Zhao Shuang released her hand.

"Are you really planning to lead the Guanghan Realm and Kunlun Realm to surrender to the Hell Realm? If so, the cultivators of the Guanghan Realm probably won't agree, after all, the grudges between the Guanghan Realm and the Hell Realm run deep. Especially the Kunlun Realm, whose resentment towards the Hell Realm far surpasses that of the Guanghan Realm cultivators. You must know that the Hell Realm and the Heaven Realm are absolutely the culprits for the Kunlun Realm's current predicament. If the Kunlun Realm were to join the Hell Realm, I'm afraid all the gods of the Kunlun Realm would disagree. After all, they have sacrificed so much, hoping to one day return to their peak and destroy the Hell Realm, although that is an unlikely thing. But their grudges and hatred with the Hell Realm are too deep, too deep, and there is no possibility of reconciliation. If you do this, you will only incur the resentment of the old gods of the Kunlun Realm, and they probably won't easily agree, in fact, they simply won't agree."

The Moon God's expression was equally grim. He was naturally unwilling to join the Underworld, but he also knew that this was the only way to threaten the gods of Heaven. Otherwise, if the gods of Heaven insisted on their own way and did not allow Zhao Shuang to participate in this Holy War of Merit, then the Guanghan Realm would truly be doomed.

"We have no choice now, unless you want the Guanghan Realm to become the battlefield for the next Holy War of Merit. This is the only way to threaten these guys now, there is no other way, unless you can ask a few of the Heavenly Realms for help, but that is obviously impossible. To be honest, the Heavenly Realm in the Heavenly Court Realm is practically defunct now. The title of Heavenly Realm has even disappeared for countless years. To put it bluntly, many Great Saints in the Heavenly Court Realm don't even know what the word 'Heavenly Realm' means."

"So if we want to protect the Guanghan Realm and the Kunlun Realm, this is the only way. With my influence in the Hell Realm, I can temporarily protect the Guanghan Realm and the Kunlun Realm, but the premise is that you need to completely submit to them, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable."

"Then you can rest assured, they wouldn't dare to gamble, they can't afford to gamble, they will definitely agree to let me participate in this Holy War of Merit. At most they will add a few restrictions to me, but I don't care about those restrictions at all, as long as I can participate. As long as I can successfully participate in this Holy War of Merit, then the Guanghan Realm won't be in too much trouble. But you also need to work hard, you only have one goal, which is to find a way to kill the gods of the Hell Realm, that's what you should be doing. As long as you kill one or two gods of the Hell Realm, then you can guarantee that you can protect the Guanghan Realm, and you won't need my help anymore. You have cultivated for so many years, you can be considered a top-level ancient god, although you haven't reached the level of God Venerable yet, but your strength is already enough, right?"

"With your current strength and my help, I guarantee you can slay the gods of the Hell Realm, and not just one or two. If you can slay three to five gods of the Hell Realm, it will be an incredible opportunity for the entire Guanghan Realm, enough to greatly enhance its overall strength, and perhaps even create a few gods. Not by directly refining their divine essence into pseudo-gods, but by using their divine source to help the top gods of the Guanghan Realm advance further. As for whether they can break through to the god realm, that depends on their luck."

"There is a top-tier Great Sage in your Guanghan Realm, I believe he is called the Annihilation Emperor. If he can obtain a piece of divine source and refine the divine power within it, he might break through to the realm of a god in one fell swoop, and not just as a pseudo-god. This Annihilation Emperor has the potential to become a god. So you can help him advance further. In this way, your Guanghan Realm will have three gods, which is an absolutely great thing for the entire Guanghan Realm, and it can barely be considered a relatively powerful world. In this way, even if another Holy War of Merit occurs, the Guanghan Realm will not become a battlefield for the Holy War of Merit, and its chances of winning will increase significantly. Especially if you obtain the corpses of several gods, you can use their power to greatly increase the number of saints, saint kings, and even great saints in the Guanghan Realm. In this way, the Guanghan Realm can be said to have greatly increased its strength in a short period of time."

"You no longer need to worry about the Guanghan Realm becoming a battlefield for the Holy War of Merit in the future. At least not in the short term. Moreover, such a long time is enough for you to recover your peak strength. What will you have to worry about then? Once you recover your peak strength, or even reach the realm of God-Emperor and possess a divine artifact, how many people in the entire Heavenly Court Realm will be your match? At that time, do you still think you can't protect the Guanghan Realm? I think that at that time, protecting the Guanghan Realm will be no difficult task for you at all."

Zhao Shuang's earnest words plunged the Moon God into silence. He knew very well that while everything Zhao Shuang said was good and potentially achievable, it represented the best-case scenario. What would actually happen? No one knew. If even the slightest mishap occurred, the Guanghan Realm could very well become the next battlefield for the Holy War of Merit, which would be utterly devastating for the Guanghan Realm.

That's why he insisted on asking Zhao Shuang for help, and Zhao Shuang agreed as he wished, but unexpectedly the gods in the Heavenly Court objected.

"What you've said is possible, but in reality, it's extremely difficult. For example, slaying a few gods of the underworld—do you think it's so easy? I am neither a god nor one of the heavens. Slaying them is almost impossible for me. Even with your help, my chances of success aren't great unless you can lend me divine artifacts, and more than one. Only then will I have enough confidence to slay the gods of the underworld."

Taking this opportunity, the Moon God once again made his request: he wanted a divine artifact. This was something he had always wanted. It could be said that if he could obtain a divine artifact, then slaying gods would no longer be a difficult task.

However, even without divine artifacts, it is possible for the Moon Goddess to kill a deity with her power.

"You don't need to consider divine artifacts for now. What you need to do is recover your strength as quickly as possible and then head to the Underworld—no, I should say slay one or two gods of the Underworld in the Battle of Merit. That's what you should be doing. I can indeed get you one or two divine artifacts, but that would likely cause you trouble. After all, if I get you divine artifacts now, even a fool would know it's for the sake of the Holy War of Merit. If a god from the Heavenly Court informs the gods of the Underworld, you'll immediately become the target of everyone's attacks. That would be a real problem. With your current strength, if you become the target of everyone's attacks, you might very well be killed by the gods of the Underworld. At that point, the Guanghan Realm will be completely finished. Do you really want to take such a big risk?"

"You want to borrow the divine artifact? Not now. At least until after this Holy War of Merit ends, when your strength has recovered to a certain extent and you have enough power to protect yourself, then I can lend you the artifact. Only then can you truly become a powerful being among the gods. For now, you should obediently do as I say and strive to slay the gods of the Underworld in this Holy War of Merit, even just slaying one or two false gods would be enough. So do you understand what you should be doing now? Not asking me for the artifact, but recovering your strength as quickly as possible so you have the power to slay the gods of the Underworld at will. That's what you should be doing. Now, you must do everything in your power to save the Guanghan Realm. Isn't that why you asked me to come and help the Guanghan Realm? This matter depends not only on me, but even more on yourself. Because you are the god of the Guanghan Realm, you are the Moon Goddess, the god of the Guanghan Realm, and also the most powerful god in the history of the Guanghan Realm. If even you lack confidence, then the Guanghan Realm is truly doomed." (End of Chapter)
