My version of Heavenly Dao is too old, so it's full of bugs.

Chapter 486 Moved by the Divine Weapon, Heavenly Dao Digs a Trap
In order to gain Li Wei's help and obtain "freedom" like the Hunyuan Wuliang Transformation Scissors, Sichuan made various promises.

This includes, but is not limited to, helping Li Wei hide his secrets, fighting for him for five hundred years, and providing him with lifelong personal safety protection services.

In short, Sichuan has given almost everything it could think of and could provide.

Most of these promises sound quite appealing, but in reality, they're just empty words.

After all, under normal circumstances, Li Wei, a mere mortal, would never have the power to bargain with a supreme Dao soldier.

Even during peacetime when the laws of the Yuan Dao were at their strongest, contracts and agreements alone could not completely restrain the Supreme Dao Soldiers, let alone now.
Finally, Sichuan also felt that its promises were too "empty," so it took the initiative to say:

【Lord Inspector Li Wei, if you do not believe me, we can forge a contract according to ancient rituals, swearing an oath of brotherhood with blood!】

But here's the surprise.

Li Wei actually agreed immediately!
"No need for such trouble! I, Li Wei, am known for my generosity and chivalry! Since you've come to me for help, we're friends. And as friends, how could I not help you?"

Li Wei reached out and patted His shoulder, silently passing on a ray of the Creator's light.

A touch!
Under that invisible light, the spiritual life force of Sichuan, which had long been extinguished, was rekindled and gained its own unique will in that instant.

Sichuan was stunned!

The surprise came so suddenly that He didn't even have time to react.

Oh my God!
At first, I thought Li Wei simply possessed some kind of loophole in the Heavenly Dao, which allowed the Great Dao Divine Weapon to ignore its own firewall restrictions to a certain extent and gain some freedom.

But I never expected this!
He actually managed to grant a supreme Dao soldier an independent life?!

This ability can no longer be described as a mere loophole in the Heavenly Dao; it can only be compared to the legendary primordial Heavenly Dao and the creator power possessed by the goddess Nuwa.

Perhaps this is even the power of the Creator!
Whoever possesses this ability can change the格局 (geju, a concept encompassing the overall structure and overall situation) of the Three Realms, and even change the lives of all beings in the world today. It is something that would never be easily revealed, yet Li Wei helped me without me even making a Dao oath?!
A strange feeling, one that he had never experienced before and could not describe, welled up in Sichuan's heart. He had clearly obtained the freedom he had longed for, but he found that he could not be happy at all. His mind was filled with Li Wei.

Are there still such naive people in this day and age?

【Do not! 】

This is no longer naivety!

It's not stupidity!

Did this guy really trust me so easily, without any suspicion whatsoever?

Sichuan was born in the poor mountains and bad waters of the Tianfu Prefecture!
From the moment He gained will, He has been fighting against the pollution of war from the primordial era, facing only endless struggles and tribulations!
In His world, all sorts of scheming and intrigue are normal, so from the very beginning, He was prepared to bargain with the "insidious and cunning Inspector Li," and was even prepared to bleed a lot.

In the end, He did nothing, yet Livy believed His empty words.

Is that right?!
Did I misjudge him?
This kid is not a treacherous or cunning person at all, but a righteous and passionate young man.

Sichuan felt a sudden surge of anger, so much so that he felt a sense of disappointment and frustration.
[Li Wei!! You live in this dark and corrupt era of the Heavenly Court!]

[The Three Pure Ones, the Four Emperors, the Five Elders, the Gods of Heaven—which one of them isn't cunning and treacherous? Even I, a supreme Dao soldier, possess a ruthless heart. How could you so easily trust others!]

Under the impact of anger,

Sichuan couldn't help but have a dark thought pop into his mind—he wanted to devour Li Wei right now and make him realize how foolish it was to blindly trust others!

But in his anger, a complex and inexplicable emotion, unlike anything he had ever felt before, surged forth once more, relentlessly eroding his body like waves.

Throughout tens of thousands of years of history, Sichuan has never been trusted like this before!

Furthermore, since He was now illuminated by the light of His spirit, a moment of "transition from death to life" and an outpouring of emotions, the impact He received was greater than imagined.

So, even humans are willing to believe in a non-human being like me?

Sichuan remained silent for a long, long time, then finally let out a heavy sigh, said nothing, and left dejectedly.

Li Wei was left standing there, completely bewildered: "What the heck! I gave this guy such a great fortune, and he left without even saying thank you?"

Just as Li Wei was wondering, he suddenly heard a series of prompts in his ears!
【Ding! 】

[Detected increased psychological activity from the target of the "pig slaughter" scenario, resulting in a surge in favorability towards you; vulnerability rules are activated!]

[Effect 3: Cultivation Transfer in Effect!]

[—You can transfer your cultivation directly without any transfer payment system, leaving no record! Current cultivation transfer progress: 1.22%! Cultivation transfer in progress]

[Transfer error! Your target has been detected as a Supreme Dao Soldier [Sichuan]. Your cultivation transfer will be adjusted accordingly!]

[Adjustment complete, you have gained 1.22% control of Sichuan!]

Li Wei's eyes widened instantly!
1.22%?

Is Sichuan really that easy to plan a trip?

I had only just started slaughtering pigs when He couldn't resist stretching out His own neck?

Before Li Wei could react, another notification sounded. [Detection indicates a surge in Sichuan's favorability towards you. Slaughter begins. You have gained 2.33% control of Sichuan!]

Good guy!
The pig has already jumped into the pot by itself!

Over the next few minutes, Li Wei received rule notifications about the "pig butchering scam" loophole almost every few seconds, sometimes as little as 1.00 and sometimes as little as 0.00.

Finally, when the vulnerability alerts stopped, Li Weifa himself had somehow gained control of 18.9% of Sichuan?

You know, he had spent so long trying to conquer the Heavenly Soul Traveler, and he only got 16.8 points!
This is absolutely outrageous!

Heavenly Dao 0.81 was also somewhat surprised, but after careful analysis, it quickly realized: "With the illumination of spiritual light, the emotional fluctuations in Sichuan are too intense, making it easy for others to take advantage of the situation."

Furthermore, He was born to govern the corrupting influence of the war laws in Tianfu County, so His nature inherently carries the destiny of "restoring the land," which includes not only restoring the physical landscape but also restoring the scattered hearts of the people!

[But in this era, with the collapse of ritual and music, moral decay, and the loss of humanity, all that can be seen in Sichuan is petty scheming and despicable behavior. Therefore, your "selfless trust" just now struck a chord with His heart!]

[Finally, the combination of loopholes in the "pig butchering scam" and the influence of a deceptive reputation created this miracle!]

To gain control of nearly one-fifth of a supreme Dao weapon in such a short time, with the body of a mortal, is enough to be recorded in the history of immortals!
So Confucius, who was sleeping inside Li Wei's body, was directly revived and immediately began to record this incredible feat in his Spring and Autumn Annals.

However, in order to protect Li Wei's secret, He chose to temporarily conceal Li Wei's name and obscure the time and place.

Otherwise, when other cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm who practice the Dao of History and Time travel through the annals of history, they might come across Li Wei's records, which would bring them endless trouble.

Confucius, thinking of this, couldn't help but feel distressed: "I really hope Li Wei dies soon, so my historical records can be published sooner."

But if he dies too young, the history of immortals will certainly lose a lot of fun!

Sigh, what a dilemma!
Confucius could only hope that Li Wei could ascend to godhood and become a saint as soon as possible. When that day comes, Li Wei should be able to withstand the impact of his own historical records being made public.
Before that, may He have more time to witness this extraordinary history—which may be important to the whole world and to all living beings!
but
Confucius glanced down at the red threads appearing on his hands and sighed, "I hope the great calamity can give me a little more time!"

It is no coincidence.

At this very moment, on another corner of the world, Venus was also sighing the same thing: "I truly wish the great calamity could give me a little more time, so I could perfect my plans!"

But it's a pity.

The great calamity waits for no one.

As the Heavenly Court announced the start of the war, the calamity shrouding the world began to intensify once again, and eyewitness reports of those who would settle the great calamity began to appear in various places.

This is a bad thing, but it's also a good thing!

This means that the Heavenly Court, by taking the initiative, successfully interrupted the brewing of the calamity, dragging the independent timeline created by the great calamity back into reality. The fate and cause-and-effect woven by the great calamity have begun to intersect with reality.

Therefore, the Heavenly Court did not have enough time to prepare, nor did the Great Calamity, and the Nine Saints, the Heretics, the Buddhist Sect, the Dragon Clan, and the Alliance Against Heaven had even less time to prepare!
In a situation where no one is fully prepared, every slight advantage will be magnified infinitely, and the Heavenly Court, relying on its accumulated strength over countless generations, will gain an even greater advantage in this chaotic situation.

Now we're just waiting for Yang Jian to return to his position. Why hasn't Li Wei convinced Him yet?

Thinking of this,

Venus immediately called Li Wei to inquire about his progress.

"Don't worry! The Manifestation Saint True Lord has already invited me to dinner today. It seems that He is preparing to agree to our request, but He probably needs some time to prepare, and He probably wants to observe the situation further!"

"At most seven days, before you launch your final offensive, things will definitely be resolved!"
Venus nodded in satisfaction, praised Li Wei a few more times, then hung up the phone and turned to look at the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions of Heaven.

If Yang Jian can invite Li Wei to dinner, then the matter is considered settled!

Now, let's see if these old friends will come looking for trouble!

Deep within the Heavenly Court!

Qingling Shila secretly arrived at the place where the Heavenly Laws were located once again.

[Your Holiness Heaven, the three days have passed! Now you may tell me your choice?]

In Heaven's Path 7.20, Ao Yan confirmed that Li Wei had gone to see Yang Jian, and thus guessed that the Lord of War was planning to find Yang Jian to purge the internal forces.

Therefore, at this moment, His gaze toward Elder Qingling became one of pity, as if He were looking at a dead man.

With Li Wei, the quasi-emperor, around, He doesn't need Qingling Shila's help at all, so let's find a way to send Him on his way!
After all, this old man has lived for so long.

It's time for someone to dig a hole for Him!
The Dao that subtly revealed itself to Heaven on July 7.20th: [I agree to give you the list of branches of the Great Calamity Dao, but besides helping me save the Dragon Clan, you must first do one more thing for me!]

Because the Heavenly Dao itself possesses hidden divine authority, the Azure Spirit Elder did not notice His cold gaze at all, and thought that the Heavenly Dao 7.20 had truly compromised at this moment!

Elder Qingling became excited and couldn't help but exclaim with elation: "I can help you, but I want you to swear an oath on your own Heavenly Dao!"

Tiandao7.20 gave a cold laugh: [Deal!]

Anyway, Old Deng is going to die soon, so what's there for Him to care about with a dead man?
