Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Although Haotian was appointed as the Heavenly Emperor by the Dao Ancestor, possessing the status and authority of the Heavenly Emperor!

However, to truly master the power of the Heavenly Dao, one still needs time to comprehend and adapt. It is already quite remarkable that a thousand years have passed to repair this Lingxiao Palace.

"Uncle Haotian and Uncle Yaochi, thank you for your hard work," Huanglong said sincerely.

Haotian waved his hand and led Huanglong into the Lingxiao Palace.

In the deepest part of the vast hall, there is only a high platform.

On the high platform were two thrones: the throne of the Heavenly Emperor and the throne of the Queen Mother of the West.

Both thrones were formed from the power of the Heavenly Dao, exuding a mysterious aura.

Haotian did not ascend the high platform, but instead waved his hand, and three prayer mats appeared in the main hall.

The three of them took their seats.

Haotian looked at Huanglong and said, "Nephew Huanglong, you just said that Senior Brother Yuanshi sent you to assist me in rebuilding the Heavenly Court."

"Exactly." Huang Long nodded.

Haotian and Yaochi exchanged a glance, a hint of joy flashing in their eyes.

"Are the other disciples of the sages willing to go to the Heavenly Court?" Haotian asked hurriedly, his tone filled with anticipation.

Huang Long pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

"Uncle-Master Haotian, to be honest, the Heavenly Court these days...!"

He didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was already quite clear.

The Heavenly Court is now in ruins and in dire need of reconstruction. It holds no appeal for even ordinary innate beings, let alone disciples of saints.

Whether it's Shouyang Mountain, Kunlun Mountain, or Jin'ao Island, they are all far better than the current Heavenly Court.

The disciples of the sages have resources and inheritances in their own sects, so why should they come to the Heavenly Court to suffer this hardship?

Haotian and Yaochi naturally understood this, and both showed a hint of disappointment.

But they quickly adjusted their mindset.

At least Huanglong has come, and he is the most outstanding of the Sage's disciples.

"Nephew Huanglong, we are already very happy that you could come," Yaochi said gently. "Now that the Heavenly Court is being rebuilt, it needs talents like you. Please feel free to make any requests you may have."

"That's right, feel free to ask for anything," Haotian said generously.

Huanglong was waiting for this very sentence.

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Uncle Haotian and Uncle Yaochi, I came to the Heavenly Court to assist you two in rebuilding it, not for fame or fortune. But if I'm going to do something, I need a proper title."

Haotian nodded: "Of course!"

With a wave of his hand, a huge light screen appeared in the void inside the Lingxiao Palace.

The light screen was densely covered with countless divine positions... the position of Emperor, the position of Star Lord, the position of Divine General... each divine position emitted an illusory light!

"These are all the divine positions manifested by the Heavenly Dao," Haotian explained. "Each divine position corresponds to the authority and responsibilities bestowed by the Heavenly Dao. Nephew Huanglong, you may choose a divine position from among them."

Huang Long's gaze fell on the light screen, looking at each element from top to bottom.

The Great Emperor of the North Pole, the Great Emperor of the South Pole... these are the four imperial positions, second only to the Heavenly Emperor.

Below are also a series of star deities...!

Huanglong's gaze swept over these divine positions one by one, finally settling on the six characters "Zhongtian Ziwei Emperor".

"Uncle Haotian, is this divine position acceptable?" Huanglong asked, pointing to the six characters.

Haotian looked troubled when he saw the divine position chosen by Huanglong.

Seeing this, Huanglong thought that Haotian was reluctant to give up such a high divine position.

Just then, Haotian spoke.

"Nephew, it's not that your uncle is reluctant to give up this divine position." Haotian's tone carried a hint of worry.

"Instead, the Great Emperor of the Central Heaven, Ziwei, commands all the stars and oversees their movement, bearing a heavy responsibility. As you have seen in the current state of the Heavenly Court, most of the stars in the heavens have been extinguished, awaiting their revival."

"If you choose this position, you will not only fail to receive the blessing of Heaven's authority, but you will also have to take on the responsibility of reviving these stars."

Haotian paused, then looked at Huanglong and said, "Restoring the celestial stars will require a great deal of time and energy, and it will not benefit your cultivation in the slightest. In fact, because you are diverting your energy to the restoration of the stars, it may actually slow down your cultivation progress."

"Have you thought this through?"

Yaochi nodded in agreement and added, "Nephew Huanglong, you are now at the peak of the Great Luo realm, only one step away from becoming a Quasi-Saint. This is a crucial period for your cultivation. If you delay your cultivation because of the affairs of the Heavenly Court, how can we face Senior Brother Yuanshi?"

"Why don't you choose the Antarctic Emperor of Immortality? It won't interfere with your cultivation, and it can also help us rebuild the Heavenly Court. It's the best of both worlds."

Huang Long listened to Haotian and Yaochi's advice and saw the sincere worry on their faces, and felt a little guilty.

These two senior uncles, now newly in charge of the Heavenly Court, have little intrigue or scheming; their sole focus is on rebuilding the Heavenly Court.

They didn't treat Huanglong as a tool, but genuinely cared for him.

Huanglong had his own plans.

He was determined to take the position of the Great Emperor of the Central Heaven.

Seeing Haotian and Yaochi's concern, he smiled and said, "I appreciate your kindness, my two senior uncles. But I have come to the Heavenly Court to help you rebuild it."

"Restoring the Zhou Tian Star Array is also part of rebuilding the Heavenly Court. As a disciple of a sage, I should naturally choose the most difficult one so as not to fail my master's teachings."

He looked at Haotian with a determined gaze.

"Therefore, I have chosen the Heavenly Purple Emperor, and I hope my Martial Uncle will grant my request."

Haotian and Yaochi exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise and admiration in each other's eyes.

This junior disciple, with the cultivation of the peak of the Great Luo realm, remained unfazed in the face of several Quasi-Saints.

At this point, the most difficult one was chosen from among the many divine positions.

This led them to have high expectations for the other disciples of the sages.

"Alright!" Haotian stopped trying to dissuade him and nodded, saying, "Since you have made up your mind, then the power of the Central Heaven Ziwei Emperor will be handed over to you."

He waved his hand again, and a purple light appeared out of thin air and entered the center of Huanglong's eyebrows.

In an instant, Huanglong felt a vast power of the Heavenly Dao surge into his body.

The power was not strong, but it carried a supreme majesty, as if at this moment, it had established some kind of profound connection with the stars and celestial bodies.

A cluster of purple starlight appeared in his true spirit.

The starlight contained the authority bestowed upon the Ziwei Emperor by the Heavenly Dao, allowing him to command the stars and control their movement.

It also bears the responsibility of reviving the stars in the heavens.

More importantly, Huanglong now has the authority to mobilize the origins of all the stars in the heavens.

"Huanglong greets the Heavenly Emperor and the Queen Mother."

As the authority of Huanglong merged with that of the Great Emperor Ziwei of Zhongtian, Haotian's aura suddenly intensified.

At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor's authority became even more aligned with the heavens.

Haotian sensed the changes in his control over the power of the Heavenly Dao and looked at Huanglong with increasing satisfaction.

"From this day forward, you will be the Great Emperor of the Central Heaven Ziwei in the Heavenly Court, and the restoration of the stars in the heavens will be entrusted to you."
