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

Chapter 728 Am I a substitute?
This speed is outrageous!!

As Lü Yue gazed at the dark stars swirling wildly ahead, his expression grew extremely solemn.

We're all playing the same game of gods, so why is it that you, a mere earth immortal, can have such speed?

Could it be that your understanding of the laws is even stronger than mine, a Great Luo Immortal?

Or
Is there something wrong with the divine tablet beneath His feet?

Lu Yue's eyes suddenly lit up, and he activated his Divine Eye to examine the situation closely.

Only then did they notice that the star had no aura whatsoever, completely out of place with the stars beneath their feet!
[There's actually a shortcut like this? Ha! What kind of 'Path to Heaven' is this? It's more like a 'Path to Cheating'!]

Although we don't know what's so special about that star, the difficulty of solving most rule-based Sudoku puzzles is quite low.

Alternatively, there might be no rules or rules to test your Sudoku skills, allowing Li Wei to improvise freely, which would naturally increase the speed!

As for whether Li Wei will pass the trial through his own strength...
Please!

How could a normal Earth Immortal cultivator possibly possess such terrifying law calculation abilities?

Do you consider Him to be the Way of Heaven?
However, while feeling annoyed, Lü Yue also sensed that something was amiss.

Although His Majesty the Jade Emperor has many flaws, he is unconditionally kind to those from humble backgrounds.

How could the Path of the Heavenly Emperor, a divine secret realm opened up for the poor, possibly have so many loopholes and backdoors?
Isn't the Jade Emperor the one who loves fairness the most?
The other two Heavenly Court Grand Luo Immortals nearby also noticed something was wrong.

The man clad in armor, wielding a divine sword, and seated atop a mythical black tortoise-like beast, spoke in a silent voice:

[Brother Lü Yue, it's impossible for such an unexpected event to occur in a secret realm created by His Majesty the Jade Emperor. Be careful, there might be another trick up his sleeve from His Majesty Shang Hao.]

Lü Yue narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked, "Do you think He might be Shang Hao?"

This child was chosen by Maitreya Buddha, entered the path of the Heavenly Emperor before them, and also gained the favor of the Jade Emperor, thus gaining access to so many "backdoors to trials"!

If this were simply a coincidence and luck, it would be too incredible.

And most importantly,
This child is clearly so powerful, even able to withstand His Great Luo Sword without dying, yet his aura is completely unfamiliar, and he has never appeared in the Heavenly Court's sight before.

This is clearly not normal!!
Even the True Martial Emperor, seated cross-legged atop the Xuanwu divine beast, couldn't help but begin to doubt upon hearing this:
Are you saying He's deliberately hiding His identity?

indeed.

In the version of the world created by the Heavenly Court, there should not be any nameless and faceless cultivators or powerful figures.

Even that black monkey that sprang from the rock,

It had been nurtured within the Heaven-Mending Stone for countless millennia, and had actually been discovered by the Heavenly Court and the Western Religion long ago!
That's why the Heavenly Court was able to arrange the later Journey to the West tribulations so clearly.

[It does indeed resemble Shang Hao.]

The third Heavenly Court Grand Luo was a woman carrying a bag and looking travel-worn. She nodded and said:

[Thinking about it carefully, His Majesty Shanghao finally managed to activate the "Heavenly Realm" version, gaining hope for revival. His greatest fear now is being caught in a calamity, so he will definitely be hiding his identity!]

[But I never expected this guy to participate in the Heavenly Emperor's Path Trial. It's truly a case of finding something you've been searching for without even looking for it, only to have it come to you effortlessly.]

The Plague Emperor and the True Martial Emperor exchanged a glance and both felt a surge of excitement.

However, the female Da Luo cautiously said, "Don't be too happy yet. We still need to verify His identity further."

Lü Yue frowned:

[How can this be verified? If Shang Hao's current disguise is so obvious that even the calamity cannot detect it, then no amount of supernatural power of spies in the mortal world will be effective!]

This is the problem!

The female Great Luo smiled slightly and pointed to the surrounding dark cosmic starry sky, saying:

[The methods of ordinary cultivators all require the use of the laws of the Great Dao, and the calamity itself can resonate with the Great Dao, which is why it cannot be deceived by the calamity.]

But don't forget, there are even more powerful extraordinary powers in this world, surpassing the Great Dao itself, such as the authority of the Heavenly Dao!

Lü Yue suddenly realized: "You mean the Hidden Heavenly Authority?"

[That's right! If there's any power in the Three Realms that can conceal Shang Hao's identity, preventing even the calamities and us Great Luo Immortals from recognizing him, it can only be the Hidden Heavenly Authority.]

The True Martial Emperor also confirmed this conjecture.

Without the help of the Heavenly Dao, Shang Hao alone certainly could not have activated the version of "The Heavenly Realm of the Others," especially considering their pursuit of the unity of Heaven and Man.

It is not surprising that Heaven granted Him hidden divine authority on July 7.20th.

In other words, if we can prove that this guy possesses a hidden divine authority, then we can prove that He is Shang Hao?

While I wouldn't say it's 100%, I'm about 80-90% sure.

Given the current hatred that Heaven harbors towards humanity, besides Shanghao, to whom else could He bestow His secret divine authority?

"Then let me do it! After all, among the three of us, I'm probably the only one who can make the Heavenly Dao's authority manifest."

The True Martial Emperor took a deep breath, and a thin line suddenly appeared between his brows.

[A special divine ability to counter the Heavenly Dao—the Heavenly Eye!]

【open!】

Puff.

A scarlet pupil emerged from between the eyebrows of the True Martial Emperor, shooting out a gaze that enveloped Li Wei.

【Hmm?】 Li Wei’s pupils contracted as he looked at the hidden divine power surging within him.

[The Heavenly Court actually has a way to influence the authority of Heaven? Have these guys figured out my identity?]

With that in mind, Li Wei quickly buried himself in the problem and unleashed his speed once again!

Whoosh!
The darkness escaped the range of the True Martial Emperor's divine power and burrowed into the depths of the cosmos.

But that's enough!
The True Martial Emperor withdrew his gaze and lowered his voice, saying:

[That's right! That kid does indeed possess hidden divine authority; he is most likely the Supreme Emperor Haotian!]

Lu Yue glanced at the divine eye between the eyebrows of the True Martial Emperor, and a trace of jealousy rose in his heart!
Although Zhenwu has always been regarded as the oldest deity in the Heavenly Court.

But in fact,

He finally attained the Dao and became Emperor after seizing the divine power of the Northern Sea God of the Xuanwu lineage and taking away a portion of the divine power of the Northern Black Elder during the Heavenly Dao 2.0 era, after the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, He is neither a defeated general in the Investiture of the Gods nor a remnant of the Shang Dynasty, but rather a true and upright Great Luo of the new era!

He is a key figure in balancing the power of the Five Elders and the political situation in Heaven!

Therefore, he was deeply trusted by the Three Pure Ones and was able to participate in many studies on the power of the Heavenly Dao.

And what about people like Lü Yue?
Nominally, he is the Minister of the Plague Department of the Heavenly Court, wielding great power in the Heavenly Court, but in reality, he has never had any access to the most secret powers and knowledge of the Heavenly Court!

In a sense, they were high-level henchmen.

It's just a "roadblock" used by the Three Pure Ones and the Chan Sect to occupy the Great Luo Qi position and prevent dangerous individuals from obtaining top-level cultivation resources!

[Brother Lü, now that we've confirmed Shang Hao's identity, what do we do now?]

Lu Yue shook his head, dispelling the thoughts in his mind. After pondering for a moment, he said:
Try communicating with Him first to see if He is willing to cooperate! If not...

Lu Yue's eyes turned cold, and he sneered, "Then we can't let this continue!"

Whoosh! !

The three Great Luo Immortals also began to accelerate, frantically approaching Li Wei, and continuously transmitted their voices:

[Your Majesty! Please stop, let's talk!]

[Master, did I hear that right? Those three seemed to be calling you... Your Majesty?]

Tiandao0.81 glanced at Li Wei with a strange expression, then suddenly nodded.

[But you know what, you really do know, your current situation seems...maybe, perhaps, it really does have a bit of a connection to the Jade Emperor.]

Li Wei smiled speechlessly and subconsciously asked in return:

[Me? Shang Hao? Do I look like him?]

[It seems so! After all, you're just an Earth Immortal, yet you can not only withstand the sword strikes of a Great Luo Immortal, but also play a game of gods with three Great Luo Immortals and even gain the upper hand. That just doesn't make sense, does it?]

[Furthermore, you illegally crossed the border without a valid ID, and there's also the hidden Heavenly Authority, plus you were chosen by the Jade Emperor's projection.]

[Tsk tsk tsk! If I hadn't been with you the whole time, I might have thought you were Shang Hao in disguise.]

Li Wei's expression became quite interesting, and he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Could this be the reason why the Jade Emperor's projection was always hanging on me?
Is He deliberately misleading people into using me to draw attention?
Li Wei braced himself and transmitted his voice to the back:

【Three True Lords, although I don't know why you think I am Shang Hao, I really am not!】

The female Ronaldo nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes! We understand. You can't admit your identity right now, but we can talk."

[For example, the update content of the "Heavenly Beings" version!]

If you don't tell us your purpose, it will be very difficult for us to help you recover!

Damn it, Shang Hao, I've become a stand-in?
Li Wei fell silent!
He knew that these guys had now decided on him and could not be easily swayed.

Heavenly Dao 0.81 couldn't help but sympathize, saying, "Master, what do we do now? If they catch us, our fate won't be good."

【Why】

Li Wei sighed, then suddenly said, "Let's do Sudoku together then."

Although I really wanted to "complete" this trial alone and obtain all the fortune in this calamity star's divine position.

But compared to his life, the position of the God of Calamity was no longer important.

Master, just you wait and see, I guarantee you'll be satisfied.

Tiandao 0.81 excitedly integrated into the Sudoku game, running alongside the "Li Tian" who embodies the unity of heaven and man.
Like a dual-SIM dual-standby device, it instantly unleashed terrifying computing power.

Whoosh!
The already terrifying speed of the dark divine position surged once more, streaking across the sky like a real meteor, instantly disappearing from Lü Yue and the others' sight, and rushing into the depths of the universe.

Good guy!
You still say you're not Shang Hao?

Aside from Shanghao, who launched the "Beyond Heaven" version and reactivated the Path of the Heavenly Emperor, who else could have access to the back door of the Gods' Game and possess such speed?

Lu Yue and the others, who were initially only 70-80% certain, now had no more doubts.

[His Majesty is still as willful as ever.]

The True Martial Emperor gave a cold laugh: [Disobedient children need discipline. This time, He cannot allow Him to continue indulging Him like this!]
