Primordial Era: I rule the great sect and command all immortals.

Chapter 69 Taibai Offers a Plan, Heaven is Born

Over the years, under the management of Haotian and Yaochi, the Heavenly Court has recruited seven or eight Great Luo Golden Immortals one after another.

With these Great Luo Golden Immortals as the foundation, a group of Taiyi Golden Immortals, Golden Immortals, Xuan Immortals, and Heavenly Immortals joined in, and the Heavenly Court finally regained some vitality, with at least 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to make up the numbers.

Most of these soldiers were not highly skilled, but they were dressed in gold and silver armor and held sharp blades, and each of them still had a certain imposing presence.

They barely managed to maintain appearances for Haotian and Yaochi.

However, the Heavenly Court is still a nobody, lacking any authority whatsoever. The countless beings of the prehistoric world only know the name of the Human Emperor, but have never even heard of the Heavenly Court!

In that case, what dignity does the Heavenly Court retain?

What reputation does Haotian and Yaochi still have?

How can this person be considered the ruler of the Three Realms?

The Heavenly Court is magnificent, majestic, mysterious, and a sacred place, making it one of the most precious places in the Three Realms. However, its emptiness is a source of great distress for Haotian.

Recently, the Heavenly Court has recovered a bit of its vitality, and Haotian's mind has been stirred again. After pondering for a long time, he sought out Taibai Jinxing.

Since joining the Heavenly Court, Taibai Jinxing has been quite wise and familiar with the various forces and major and minor affairs of the prehistoric world. Haotian also relies on him quite a bit, and gradually Taibai Jinxing has become one of Haotian's strategists.

"Taibai, what are your thoughts on the predicament of the Heavenly Court?"

In the Lingxiao Palace of Heaven, Haotian asked.

"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, and our current predicament is inevitable."

Taibai continued, "Although the Heavenly Court may seem small in number and weak in strength, you are blessed with the Mandate of Heaven and have the Dao Ancestor as your backer. Your Majesty is the ultimate truth and will of Heaven in the primordial world. Sooner or later, under the rule of Your Majesty and the Empress, the Heavenly Court will truly command the Three Realms, and none of the races will dare to disobey!"

"Hmm! Taibai, I am aware of what you have said. You should think of a way to resolve this predicament!"

Haotian smiled slightly. He knew the old man was just flattering him, but it still felt good!

This is the benefit that comes with supreme power!

Everyone reveres him, and everyone tries to curry favor with him. I truly hope that one day I can become the true ruler of the Three Realms!

"Hehe! Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to make your name known. The creatures of the primordial world do not know your and the Empress's names."

Venus chuckled, feigning embarrassment at being seen through by the Jade Emperor once again, and said, "Your Majesty can proclaim this to the entire world and raise your banner. In time, experts will naturally come to join you."

"The primordial world is cruel, and the strong are respected. Top experts do not want to be bound, but most ordinary experts still hope to be protected by a powerful force. Apart from the saints, our Heavenly Court is the largest force."

"Many independent cultivators are regarded as heretics by the disciples of sages, and they live very difficult lives. But joining the Heavenly Court is different, and they can become orthodox disciples of the Xuanmen sect. This is especially important for many independent cultivators."

……

Taibai Jinxing spoke slowly and deliberately, and Haotian and Yaochi became more and more excited as they listened, clearly moved by Taibai Jinxing's words.

"As expected of a star lord who has survived a great calamity, Venus's insight is truly extraordinary," Haotian thought to himself in admiration. He quickly followed up with, "Taibai, according to you, how do we reveal our trump card?"

Venus laughed and said, "Your Majesty, there is a batch of immortal peaches on the peach root in your hand. Why don't Your Majesty and Your Majesty hold a grand banquet for the Three Realms, and announce to the primordial world, 'The Peach Banquet,' that the Heavenly Court has reopened!"

"Excellent! Absolutely excellent! Great Sage Taibai, you truly deserve to be a loyal minister relied upon by my Heavenly Court!"

Upon hearing this, Haotian was overjoyed, and then asked, "Taibai, you've reached the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, yet you haven't broken through to the Daluo Golden Immortal realm all these years?"

Venus's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that His Majesty was going to bestow a great reward upon him?

So he looked at his two masters with anticipation and replied excitedly, "Your Majesty and Your Majesty, my foundation is not good enough. Even after a thousand years of arduous cultivation, I still cannot reach the realm of a Great Luo Golden Immortal."

"Ha ha……"

Haotian laughed. He found Taibai Jinxing very useful. Since that was the case, he would help him out and make him grateful, so that he would be even more loyal to him and the Heavenly Court.

"Yaochi, Taibai is quite loyal. How about you reward him with some immortal peaches?" Haotian turned to the Queen Mother and began to discuss with a smile.

After Haotian finished speaking, Taibai Jinxing became excited. The Heavenly Peach Garden was a forbidden area, containing the most outstanding spiritual roots of heaven and earth. The immortal peaches contained boundless power. If he ate some, he might really have a chance to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

"Venus, as long as this 'Peach Banquet' is successfully held, I will grant you three of the highest-grade immortal peaches so that you can attempt to break through to the Great Luo realm."

With Haotian's kind words and the fact that Taibai Jinxing was considered one of their direct subordinates, Yaochi agreed. However, she still gave him a test to see if Taibai Jinxing was just a smooth talker or a capable minister of the Heavenly Court with real talent.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please place your hopes on me! I will do everything in my power for Your Majesty and Your Majesty!"

After countless years, Taibai Jinxing finally saw hope of breaking through his cultivation level. He was overjoyed, bid farewell to his two masters, and excitedly left the Lingxiao Palace to prepare for the Peach Banquet.

"Senior brother, what do you think of Taibai Jinxing?" Yaochi asked after Taibai Jinxing left. "He's just a Taiyi Golden Immortal. And because of the Star Lord, he probably doesn't have much potential."

Haotian shook his head and said, "Junior sister, he does not have much potential. But he has wisdom, and such a wise person is more important than some experts. Taibai Jinxing is also loyal, so we can train him."

After much preparation, on this day, the Thirty-Three Heavens trembled, and brilliant light illuminated the entire primordial land. Suddenly, the Dharma image of the new ruler of the Three Realms, the Jade Emperor, appeared in the sky above the primordial world.

All living beings saw, in the infinitely high and profound void, the Jade Emperor with a full face and a solemn and dignified appearance, neither angry nor self-conscious, wearing a golden crown and a robe with five-clawed golden dragons, holding a hazy and ancient mirror in his hand, proclaiming to the primordial world.

"By the Heavenly Dao, I am the Jade Emperor, appointed by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the Lord of the Heavenly Court. Ten thousand years from now, the Heavenly Court will hold the 'Peach Banquet.' Today, I hereby announce to the primordial world that I invite experts from all directions to attend the banquet..."

"Boom!"

Nearly ten thousand years have passed since the Lich Wars. The older generation of experts have either died or retired, with only one in ten thousand remaining. New life has emerged, mainly consisting of humans, demons, and witches. Countless beings have no idea what the Heavenly Court is.

Through this miraculous manifestation of the Jade Emperor, all living beings learned of the existence of a Heavenly Court, and that there truly were immortals and gods in heaven who ruled over the world.
