Daily Intelligence: From Water Snake to Jinghe Dragon King

Upon seeing Liu Qing capture the three fairies, Wen Zhong was shocked and hurriedly asked how to proceed.

Golden Light Holy Mother, Hanzhi Fairy, and Caiyun Fairy are all second-generation outer disciples of the Jie Sect. Although they are currently trapped on the Investiture of the Gods, they all possess considerable cultivation. Among them, Golden Light Holy Mother is at the Undying Realm, while Hanzhi Fairy and Caiyun Fairy are at the Golden Body Realm.

The three fairies, possessing divine authority and artifacts, and without deliberately holding back, fought Liu Qing with all their might, yet were easily defeated.

How could Wen Zhong not be shocked by Liu Qing's strength? He was now completely convinced that Liu Qing had been appointed as the acting leader of the Jie Sect.

Seeing that of the twenty-four Heavenly Kings of the Thunder Department who had come this time, sixteen were from the Jie Sect, and thirteen remained, Liu Qing immediately said, "Let them all come down."

Wen Zhong hesitated for a moment, wanting to remind his master, "Uncle Master, could you defeat the combined forces of thirteen Heavenly Lords?" But thinking of Liu Qing's combat strength, he swallowed his words.

“The evil Taoist priest below is rampant and cannot be resisted by one person alone. All thirteen of you, go out together and capture that evil Taoist priest.”

The thirteen Heavenly Lords of the Thunder Department, Bai Li, Yu Qing, Ji Li, and others looked at each other, but dared not disobey their Master Uncle's orders. After hesitating for a moment, they flew down from the city wall and fought against Liu Qing.

Before long, Liu Qing used his three heads and six arms supernatural powers to capture all thirteen Heavenly Lords.

"Alright, Wen Zhong, that's enough for today."

"In this battle, all your subordinates in the Thunder Department were captured, which should have greatly weakened your strength. You can use this as an excuse to ask the Jade Emperor for help. Presumably, the Jade Emperor will send people down to the mortal realm again."

"Haotian will definitely seek help from Buddhism. At that time, we will join forces to kill Haotian's confidants sent to the mortal realm, as well as the people from Buddhism who come to help, and cut off their wings. We will settle the interest of the karmic debts of the Investiture of the Gods first."

Wen Zhong replied, "I will obey the command of my master uncle. I will immediately request aid from Haotian!"

Seeing Liu Qing capture sixteen Sui generals in succession, Li Shimin's Tang army beat drums and their morale soared. He wanted to launch a full-scale attack on Tongguan, but then he saw Wen Zhong wave his hand and release a pool of thunder that floated above Tongguan.

Within the Thunder Pool, lightning condensed into liquid, and any splashes of water that occasionally escaped immediately transformed into terrifying heavenly lightning, rolling down in torrents.

Such terrifying lightning immediately extinguished Li Shimin's desire to attack.

Upon seeing this, Wen Zhong ordered a truce sign to be raised high and sent a telepathic message to Haotian, requesting reinforcements.

The Jade Emperor had already seen everything clearly in the heavens. When he saw Wen Zhong requesting reinforcements, he knew that the battle was going badly and that he couldn't really blame Wen Zhong. He only regretted that Liu Qing was too strong.

After thinking it over, the Jade Emperor issued an edict to his trusted deities, ordering them to go and help Wen Zhong. He also sent a message to the Buddha, urging the Buddhist side to send people there as soon as possible.

Just as the Jade Emperor had finished making the arrangements, he saw the void in front of him ripple, and Yu Yu the Taoist walked out from inside.

He carried a pot of Monkey Spirit Wine in his hand, his expression a half-smile: "Haotian, I've had some free time lately, so I've come to have a drink with you."

The Jade Emperor sensed something amiss and quickly declined, saying, "Senior Brother, you are too kind. I should accompany you, but as the ruler of the Three Realms, I have too many trivial matters to attend to and cannot spare the time. Please forgive me, Senior Brother."

Although they couldn't guess the specific purpose of Yu Yu Dao Ren's visit, the Jade Emperor vaguely suspected that it was related to the Jie Sect's eastward journey.

The Jie Sect's plan to travel eastward, and the alliance between the Heavenly Court and Buddhism, are already obvious; the two sides have already broken off relations.

The Jade Emperor is planning to cause trouble for the Jie Sect, and Yu Yu Dao Ren can probably guess that. But under these circumstances, why is Yu Yu Dao Ren coming to him with wine? Isn't there something fishy going on?
"What, you're the ruler of the Three Realms now? You look down on your down-on-his-luck senior brother? You won't even drink wine?"

Yu Yu Daoist immediately raised his eyelids, and the rusty iron sword at his waist faintly exuded sword intent, causing the Jade Emperor to feel a chill run down his spine and dare not refuse.

Although he was the Jade Emperor, the ruler of the Three Realms, and possessed the cultivation of a Great Luo Realm Perfection cultivator and a half-step Hunyuan Realm cultivator, he still couldn't defeat Yu Yu Dao Ren, a mere fragment of a Saint's soul. He could only endure all the frustration.

Seeing the Jade Emperor's humiliated appearance, Yu Yu Dao Ren was overjoyed. He thought to himself, "My good disciple Liu Qing sent me to keep this scoundrel Haotian occupied and prevent him from having the chance to activate the Investiture of the Gods. Although I don't know why, I can't fail my disciple's trust."

Haotian, I'm offering you a toast today. You must drink it, or you'll suffer a few sword strikes from me.

Meanwhile, Li Shimin led his army back to camp, while Liu Qing switched places with his clone and entered the Lesser Thousand Worlds.

The Golden Light Holy Mother, Hanzhi Fairy, Caiyun Fairy, Bai Li, Yu Qing, and sixteen other Thunder Department Heavenly Lords from the Jie Sect came to greet them.

"Sect Leader, as you instructed, your disciples have already put on a good show and deceived that scoundrel Haotian. What should we do next?"

Liu Qing smiled: "Next, it's time to give Haotian an even bigger surprise."

The Golden Light Mother and the others were all puzzled. Liu Qing continued, "Our teacher often said that when you were conferred the title of God, you were caught in a killing calamity. Your original divine souls were trapped by the Investiture of the Gods and suffered endless humiliation for thousands of years."

"Your teacher has always felt sorry for you and has always thought about you."

Upon hearing this, the Golden Light Mother and the others were moved to tears: "Your disciples are not at fault, causing you, our teacher, to worry."

"Our teacher cares about you all, and as your senior uncle, who has also been appointed as the sect leader, how can I sit idly by?"

Liu Qing glanced around, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the Golden Light Mother and the others, and slowly said, "Today, I, the Venerable One, am prepared to rescue you from the Investiture of the Gods!"

"So that you will no longer be controlled by the Investiture of the Gods, nor be driven by the Jade Emperor!"

boom--

Upon hearing Liu Qing's words, the faces of the Golden Light Saintess and the others immediately showed expressions of disbelief and shock.

They stood there stunned for a long time before asking uncertainly, "Master Uncle, is what you're saying true? Do you really have a way to help us escape from the Investiture of the Gods?"

The Golden Light Saintess and the others looked at Liu Qing with expectant expressions, and Liu Qing nodded solemnly.

boom--

Hanzhi Fairy and Caiyun Fairy, both gentle by nature, couldn't help but shed tears when they thought about finally being freed from the Investiture of the Gods and the humiliation they had suffered for thousands of years.

Even those with strong wills, such as the Golden Light Mother, Jili, and Yuqing, had tears in their eyes.

After everyone calmed down a bit, Liu Qing said, "I will use my methods to rescue you later. During the process, you must not resist. I will handle everything."

The Golden Light Mother and the others were all excited and said, "We will obey the leader's orders."

Liu Qing nodded, and with a thought, he began to let the divine essence of the billions of incense silver he had previously absorbed evolve into divine authority through the cheat system.

At the same time, he subconsciously chanted the name of the Golden Light Holy Mother, and then a divine token appeared amidst the swirling incense smoke.

[The Thirty-Six Heavenly Lords of the Thunder Department of the Ten Earthly Realms, and the Ninth-Rank Lightning Goddess, the Golden Light Holy Mother]

Just as the divine office of Wen Zhong evolved, 'Nine Heavens' was replaced by 'Ten Earths'.

The Ten Earth Thunder Departments also have thirty-six Heavenly Lords, and also the divine office of the Lightning God. Liu Qing thought of the Golden Light Holy Mother and thus evolved the corresponding divine office.

However, it is only a ninth-rank divine office.

Liu Qing was not in a hurry. He would first develop a divine position, and if there were enough offerings and divine influence in the future, he would definitely promote the Golden Light Holy Mother to a divine position.

Otherwise, how could a dignified "Ten Earths Responding to the Thunder Department Heavenly Lord, Lightning God" be merely a ninth-rank official?

Having evolved a divine role, Liu Qing instructed the Golden Light Mother to calm her mind and relax. Then, with a flick of his finger, divine light appeared at his fingertip, subtly conveying the divine role, and entered the Golden Light Mother's divine treasury.

Instantly, a look of pain appeared on the face of the Golden Light Mother.

I felt as if the place where the divine treasure was hidden was churning, as if two forces were pulling at it.

"Calm your mind and focus your spirit, stabilize your soul, ignore everything else, everything is under my control."

Just as the Golden Light Mother was about to try to suppress the strange occurrences at the Divine Treasury, Liu Qing stopped her.

At the same time, urge the cheat program in your mind to increase its power, but be careful not to tear the original divine soul imprint of the Golden Light Holy Mother in half.

Liu Qing urged, and the cheat seemed to sense it. The panel that had been floating in front of him, unknown to others, suddenly changed its form.

Liu Qing was initially worried that Yu Yu Dao Ren would notice this cheat, but when he saw that Yu Yu Dao Ren did not react strangely, he was secretly shocked.

The reason for this is speculated to be that the cheat is too mysterious, or perhaps because Yu Yu Dao Ren is only a wisp of a saint's soul and is ultimately not a saint, so he could not detect it.

Now that he saw the cheat program reveal its ultimate form, he suddenly realized why Daoist Yu Yu couldn't detect it; it was this cheat program.

An ancient book floated in front of Liu Qing, exuding a profound aura of the Great Dao. It was enveloped by countless laws of the Great Dao, and its spiritual power and profound mystery far surpassed the Qiankun Ruler, a high-grade innate spiritual treasure.

[Discussing the True Scriptures of Earth]

The ancient book contains four large characters that reveal the origin of this treasure: it is the True Scripture of Discussing the Earth, which corresponds to the Investiture of the Gods at the beginning of the world.

Moreover, as far as Liu Qing knew, the Investiture of the Gods was only a high-grade innate spiritual treasure, while the True Scripture of the Earth before him had a treasure light and spiritual charm that far surpassed that of a high-grade treasure. It was probably not a top-grade treasure.
[Note: The True Scripture of Earth is a supreme treasure from the beginning of creation, capable of bestowing divine titles and possessing the complete laws of the Earth.]

An explanation flashed through Liu Qing's mind, and he was instantly horrified.

I always suspected that my cheat code had some special origin, but I never expected that when I arrived in this world, it would turn out to be the Primordial Treasure, the True Scripture of Heaven and Earth.

Later generations never heard of it, yet they never imagined that they would possess it.

Unlike the Investiture of the Gods, which split into the Investiture of the Gods, the God-Slaying Whip, and the Heavenly Court, thus losing its rank, it has remained intact and possesses complete earthly laws, hence its rank is a supreme treasure of creation.

If the three spiritual treasures—the Investiture of the Gods, the God-Slaying Whip, and the Nine Heavens Court—were combined, they could become a supreme treasure representing the Heavenly Dao.

It's a pity that this Heavenly Treasure has now been divided into three parts, and its quality and power are far inferior to the intact Tan Di Zhen Jing.

The surprise of possessing a supreme treasure from the creation of the world was so great that Liu Qing could hardly believe that he had such good fortune to possess such a treasure.

From the beginning of time until now, all the treasures of creation have had their owners. Unexpectedly, after countless years, one was overlooked and found by me.

I was able to achieve rapid progress and rise from a humble snake to where I am today because of this protection.

Furthermore, the True Scripture of the Earth has been with him since his transmigration. Through his use and its protection, it has been subtly refined, becoming his natal spiritual treasure. Now that it has been reborn, there is no need for further refinement. (End of Chapter)
