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

Chapter 764 Prepare Early, the Great Luo Returns!
Drain the estuary.

After dealing with the affairs of Tianfu County, Li Wei finally had a moment to catch his breath. Exhausted, he lay on the ground and stared blankly at the night sky.

At that moment, He was unwilling to think about anything, so He did not notice the anomaly in the starry sky.

But Heavenly Dao 0.81 keenly noticed something amiss and exclaimed in surprise, "Master! The Purple Star seems unusually bright tonight."

Li Wei reluctantly turned his eyes and, sure enough, found that the night sky was tinged with a faint purple.

Upon closer inspection,
Only then did I realize that the "Purple Palace Enclosure" among the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions of Heaven was shining brightly at this moment, giving people a sense of supreme majesty.

The Purple Palace Enclosure is the imperial star, symbolizing the authority of the Heavenly Emperor. But the Supreme Heavenly Emperor has fallen; who can make this star shine?

The Heavenly Dao 0.81 said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Master, have you forgotten that among the Four Emperors of Heaven, there is one most venerable being who has yet to appear?"

Li Wei's eyes narrowed instantly: [You mean the Ziwei Emperor?]

【Um! 】

The Heavenly Dao 0.81 gazed deeply at the sky and said: "Since the Heavenly Dao 1.0 era, every Heavenly Emperor has met an untimely end."

Therefore, the Heavenly Court needs insurance.

[This can serve as an insurance policy to ensure the stable operation of the Heavenly Court and prevent the collapse of the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions after the death of the Heavenly Emperor.]

Therefore, the Heavenly Court created the position of the Ziwei Emperor, which not only allows individuals to wield some of the Heavenly Emperor's power but also grants them the ability to control the Ziwei Enclosure and the Taiwei Enclosure.

[In critical moments, it can even manipulate the celestial stars and gather the power of all the gods.]

Therefore, those who can become Ziwei must be deeply trusted by the Three Pure Ones and all the gods. For example, the first Ziwei Emperor, Boyi Kao, was known for his close relationships with them.

[How unfortunate! Being too close to imperial power inevitably brings with it the calamity of the Heavenly Emperor!]

[Bo Yikao also had the bloodline of the Ji clan and was too deeply involved with the Great Zhou Dynasty, so he was drawn into the calamity of the Son of Heaven early on, and perished before even surviving the first era of the Heavenly Dao.]

[Afterwards, the position of the Ziwei Emperor seemed to be cursed, as he fell from power several times, making him the unluckiest of the Four Emperors to have his position changed most frequently.]

[Therefore, the legends and beliefs surrounding Ziwei throughout history have overlapped, resulting in an extremely complex background and shrouding the divine position of the Ziwei Emperor in mystery.]

Furthermore, since emperors rarely meet, the Ziwei Emperor seldom appears during the reign of any Heavenly Emperor. Therefore, even some deities in the Heavenly Court may not be aware of the current Ziwei Emperor's true nature.

The more Li Wei listened, the more solemn his expression became: "So, this is an enemy who possesses the authority of the Heavenly Emperor, yet is completely unknown?"

Heavenly Dao 0.81 shook his head:

It's not entirely unknown; after all, at least one thing is certain!

[The Four Emperors must be Great Luo Immortals! Therefore, the Purple Star Emperor's cultivation level is definitely higher than that of the Supreme Emperor Haotian, and he is also in greater danger.]

Li Wei felt his headache starting again.

After finally managing to kill Shang Hao, an even more troublesome Ziwei Emperor appeared.

The only saving grace now is that Heaven is currently leaking in from all sides, so it probably won't mobilize its forces to deal with us first, right?
Thinking of this, Li Wei suddenly had an idea and asked curiously, "Has Lü Yue replied yet?"

This Minister of Plague was His most important eyes and ears in Heaven, and also the most crucial pawn for Li Wei to influence Heaven's decisions.

Will He and Tianfu County be able to survive the upcoming calamities?

It remains to be seen whether Lü Yue can actually play a role.

Heavenly Dao 0.81 checked the Law Network and found nothing in the mailbox.

He is probably in a meeting right now. He should get back to us as soon as he leaves.

About half an hour later.

As expected, Lü Yue sent a highly encrypted message through a clandestine channel.

After analyzing the information, Heavenly Dao 0.81 couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

[Master! Just as you guessed, a major problem has indeed arisen in the underworld!]

King Qin Guang has now closed the Gates of Hell, completely sealing off the Bridge of Helplessness and the Road to the Underworld, forcibly sending countless souls back to the mortal realm.

Upon hearing this, Li Wei immediately called Yang Chan, urging her to quickly purchase spiritual artifacts and medicinal herbs to counter the Yin spirits, and to do everything in her power to guard against the Yin spirits' reversal of their yang nature.

What about Heaven? They don't even save those in the Underworld, what are they trying to do?

Continuing the analysis of Heavenly Dao 0.81, a second piece of information was obtained:
The Heavenly Court has reached a consensus to do everything in its power to rescue the Three Pure Ones. However, the rescue plan and timeline are still uncertain. We will be notified as soon as Lü Yue receives the details.

So, is it really an attempt to save the Three Pure Ones?

Although Li Wei had a vague premonition, he finally confirmed his guess now.
That alone is worth a fortune.

Moreover, if He knew the exact time, location, and plan of the Heavenly Court's rescue operation, He could make arrangements in advance and gain countless benefits.

The Heavenly Dao 0.81 continued:
[Furthermore, Lü Yue has some good news: it seems that Puhua Tianzun suspects Ziwei Dadi of having problems, and the two sides argued fiercely at the meeting, eventually even coming to blows.]

[Lu Yue took the opportunity to gather a large amount of information about the Ziwei Emperor, and even recorded the scene of their battle.]

However, because this resource is so large, transmitting it through the public network of laws would easily attract attention and is not secure enough, so Lü Yue has already sent someone to deliver the intelligence.

[Well done! Lü Yue really gave me a big surprise this time!]

[Hehe, Master, you're too excited!]

[Lu Yue then delivered some bad news: the Heavenly Court wasn't going to let us off the hook, so they sent a Great Luo Immortal specifically to target Tianfu County. Can you guess who this Great Luo Immortal is?]

Although Tiandao 0.81 tried to put on a serious face, he still couldn't hide the smile on his lips.

Li Wei asked incredulously, "Could it be Lü Yue?"

Tiandao0.81 nodded heavily.

Tianfu County is now safe!
Li Wei couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Keeping Lü Yue in Heaven was truly our most successful investment!"

The official in charge of suppressing the bandits turned out to be the bandit's own son. Where can you find justice in this?
However, we still can't be careless!

Thinking about it carefully, this time, even though Lü Yue and Zhenwu the Great failed to capture me together, the Heavenly Court still allowed Him to continue targeting me, which seems a bit strange.

Could it be that Lü Yue has aroused the suspicion of some people in the Heavenly Court, and that they are specifically testing him?

Li Wei never hesitated to assume the worst about people.

He never dared to underestimate the Heavenly Court.

Let's not contact Lü Yue for now. I need to think carefully about how to use this relationship to buy us as much time as possible for cultivation.

Heavenly Dao 0.81 nodded solemnly: [Understood! However, Master, the most crucial thing is still cultivation level.]

If you could dominate the world like the Three Pure Ones or Buddha, then all conspiracies and schemes would be no problem.

Therefore, I think we should perhaps undertake a larger-scale reform of the Holy Path, and thoroughly promote the successful experience of the Ascension Examination pilot program.

As Tiandao 0.81 spoke, he sketched out a map in Li Wei's mind.

When you massacred the projected natives, I took the opportunity to calculate the population of Tianfu County.

[Given the current situation, if we don't reduce the number of Yang Jian base stations, we should be able to build another 5 sets of the Life-Cleansing Orthodox Cult's base stations, opening up at least 60 divine positions.]

[With the added blessing of the Crown of Fortune, there will be absolutely no problem elevating you to the Celestial Realm!]

[But if we directly seize Yang Jian's base station, then we'd be considered Golden Immortals.] Li Wei's brows furrowed sharply: [Don't say things like that again! Second Brother isn't dead yet!]

After a long silence, Tiandao 0.81 finally spoke:
【I understand, Master!】

However, we don't have much time left, so we need to plan ahead for Yang Jian's base station.

I'll consider it.

Li Wei turned to look at the night sky and couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh.

Second brother, oh second brother!
Are you alive or dead right now?
boom! ! !
In a special dimension that transcends reality and parallel worlds, existing independently outside of space and time, a violent explosion suddenly rang out!
The long-closed dimension of spacetime has finally been opened.

Fragments of nine bronze cauldrons, mixed with countless pieces of blood and flesh, gushed out, transforming into a poignant meteor shower in the air.

The voice of the Pursuer, Emperor Yu, echoed in the darkness: "Your juniors are truly beyond my expectations; you even betray your own people?"

Hehehe.

This time, you've escaped unscathed!

But next time, you won't be so lucky.

Puff.

The calamity that filled the sky suddenly vanished, leaving no trace.

Elder Qingling slowly emerged from the darkness, carrying a severed head. He took a deep breath of the "real" air and couldn't help but exclaim excitedly:
[Finally back alive. Wait! Where did I get here?]

During this period, Elder Qingling was undergoing tribulation in a higher dimension, completely isolated from the outside world, and had no idea about the update of the "Bei Cang Zhe Tian" version.

So when He saw the changes in the outside world, three questions about life immediately came to mind.

Where am i?

What about my huge real world?

Where have my law base station and divine position gone?

So He hurriedly invoked His divine position, and after some perception, finally sensed the response of the law in a certain "parallel world".

[The Heavenly Emperor dies, and the "Heavenly Beings" version opens a second timeline, causing the collapse of the real world and a parallel reversal.]

Good guy!
That's amazing!

Qingling Shi Lao thought that being purged by Yu the Great was dangerous enough, but he didn't expect that the real world was even more dangerous.

Even the Heavenly Emperor and Buddha died in the version of "The Heavenly Emperor".

This is too outrageous!

Whizzing!

Several more lights appeared in the darkness.

Emperor Gouchen, Emperor Changsheng, and the Five Spirit True Elders.
The Heavenly Court was ambushed by the "Fellow Daoist, Please Stay" killing move, and the Great Luo cultivators who were banished to higher dimensions by Yu the Great for reckoning have all returned from those higher-dimensional worlds.

Although they were all wounded and had countless fragments of the Nine Bronze Cauldrons stuck in their bodies, making them look extremely disheveled,
Even the Great Emperor Gouchen was seriously injured and on the verge of death, but at least they all came back alive!
brush!
Another soft sound appeared.

The Qinghua Emperor, one of the Four Emperors, was the last to fly out, and said with some regret:

[Everyone, don't forget your oaths. Please keep everything that happened this time a secret.]

Otherwise, don't blame us for not considering our past as fellow immortals.

Emperor Gouchen, his face ashen, glanced at Emperor Qinghua, then at the silent Elder Qingling beside him.
His gaze swept over the severed head held in the elder's hand, and he finally couldn't hold back his anger, saying:

Great, excellent!

We underestimated you before; we never imagined you were so shrewd.

However, let me give you a piece of advice: those who control their destiny will inevitably be devoured by it. Don't say I didn't warn you!

The voice just fell,

Emperor Gouchen immediately fell into a coma.

The Five Spirits True Elder beside him quickly pulled him back, looking at the Azure Spirit Primordial Elder with a similarly complicated expression:
In ancient times, the legendary figure Suiren lit fire, igniting human civilization.

[Later, the daughter of Suiren entered the Great Swamp and, from the footprints of the Ancestral Dragon, captured the Dao of Yin and Yang, giving birth to a son and a daughter. She then allowed the human race to steal the true dragon's fortune, and only then did the human race gradually begin to break free from primitive civilization and embark on the path of cultivation.]

The Azure Spirit Elder slowly turned his head, looked deeply at Him, and said, "Brother Dao, why do you bring up these old stories?"

[It's nothing, just a reminder! Don't forget the legacy of Suirenshi, and even more so, don't forget our initial dream of establishing the Heavenly Court.]

Of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, those who shouldn't have died have already died, while those who should have died have lingered on, barely surviving to this day.

[But merely clinging to life is bad enough!]

Do not attempt to influence future generations. The ship of the new era does not need us ancient spirits as its helmsmen!

You're right, aren't you?

[Feng Xi?]

Elder Qingling chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Brother Dao, please just call me Elder Shi. After all, I can't go back to what I was before."

The Emperor of Immortality sighed helplessly.

【That's settled then! We won't leak this matter, but you can't fool the Three Pure Ones, and they won't allow you to hold so much divine power at the same time.】

So, you'd better watch yourself.

The Eternal Emperor lowered his head and took a deep look at the severed head held in the hands of the Azure Spirit Elder, a trace of sorrow flashing in his eyes.

This damned Heavenly Court!
All the Great Luo Immortals flew backward together, advancing and retreating in unison the entire time, without revealing any flaws.

Only the Qinghua Emperor remained unmoved.

He stood beside Elder Qingling, watching them depart with indifferent eyes until they disappeared from sight, at which point he couldn't help but sigh.

[What a pity! In dealing with the issues of Yu the Great and Yang Jian, we exposed too many of our trump cards. Otherwise, we might have actually been able to capture them all!]

What's the point of staying?

The deaths of so many powerful Luo Immortals at once would be detrimental to our plans! Besides, we've already gained enough, don't you agree?

The Elder Qingling held up the severed head in his hand and asked with a smile: 【Yang Jian?】

brush!
The eye between the human head's eyebrows trembled violently, as if it was about to open, but the next moment, it returned to calm and entered a state of extreme closure.

I will not look, I will not listen, I will not think, I will not move.
All the secrets and power within the human head were thus completely hidden, not a trace of which could be detected even by the Azure Spirit Elder.

"Tch! Still so difficult to deal with. But it's okay, I'll have plenty of time to take care of you later."

The Qinghua Emperor, standing nearby, suddenly said: "Although we have already eaten His physical body, don't forget, He also lost an arm."

Elder Qingling frowned slightly and looked abruptly at the new reality.
