Chapter 591: Chapter 590: The World in Uproar—Taixu Celestial Venerable Challenges Yang Jian! (Second Update)

But the Human Emperor’s Finger is a true full-force strike of a Saint.

Its power is unimaginable.

"This will be the biggest trump card, and it can only be used once!"

"Maybe I should take a gamble..."

Lin Heng muttered to himself, the crazy thought hidden in his heart for ten years became increasingly intense at this moment, to the extent that his eyes were flashing with a sharp light.

But in the end, he suppressed that bold thought.

"More preparation is needed."

Lin Heng said to himself.

...

...

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, fifty years had passed.

During these fifty years, the power structure of the world had basically changed little.

But as the rumors about the Buddha’s annihilation of Daoism after a hundred years grew closer and closer.

The atmosphere of the Daoist Celestial Court grew more oppressive.

More and more people began to flee.

The Power of Fortune of the Celestial Court diminished day by day.

The Celestial Dao Sacred Court of the Nine Nether Ao, however, had grown ever stronger.

It cannot be helped.

Now it is well known that there is a Saint supporting the Celestial Dao Sacred Court.

Beings from all places are willing to go and seek refuge!

Only because the territory of the Celestial Dao Sacred Court is limited, with only a few dozen continents, and possibly lacking suitable National Treasures, otherwise the fifth Celestial Court level power in the world would likely emerge in the Eastern Immortal Realm...

...

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Power of Rule, Ice Seal.]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Power of Rule, Thunderbolt.]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Power of Rule, Healing.]

[Congratulations to the host...]

...

In fifty years.

Lin Heng’s Reputation Value had reached three trillion again.

He did not keep it but used it all for the Heavenly Dao lottery, without exception, acquiring the Power of Rule of the world.

Unfortunately, there were no rewards like a Saint’s full-force strike.

"Waiting any longer seems to be useless." Lin Heng murmured to himself.

As the centennial term drew closer, the atmosphere of the Celestial Court grew oppressive day by day, with Venerable Emperor Chong’en frequently making moves.

Although Mencius’ Confucian philosophy, the concept of Heaven, Earth, Monarch, Parent, and Teacher, was fermenting.

The thought of fleeing still spread continuously like waves.

His reputation growth speed had long slowed down.

In the remaining forty years, it’s unlikely he could accumulate another chance for a lottery.

The most critical thing is.

The Celestial Dao Sacred Court grew stronger, once it ascends, the battle of Destiny Dynasty is bound to begin.

By then.

The conflict of Destiny Dynasty and towering karma will be mutually canceled out.

And Lin Heng will have to face the encirclement of Venerable Emperor Chong’en and Tathagata Buddha, these two Saints!

"I have to take a gamble." Lin Heng muttered, getting up and leaving the Forbidden Palace.

The moment he appeared at the Celestial Palace of Discussion in the Twenty-Seventh Heaven, he heard the outbreak of a grand aura outside.

That aura shook the sun, moon, and stars, affecting the layered Celestial Domains, attracting countless Immortals to watch.

Lin Heng raised an eyebrow and looked through the Sea of Fortune towards that place, then smiled knowingly.

It was the Long-armed Ape.

The Long-armed Ape had finally comprehended its own law and stepped into the Quasi-Saint rank.

The ape roared, shaking Heaven and Earth.

The Long-armed Ape was, at this moment, in the highest spirits.

It transformed into a stream of light, landing with a thunderous bang on the East Pole Continent.

"Sun Wukong, come, let’s have a battle!"

The Long-armed Ape’s loud laughter echoed throughout the Celestial Domain, and the naturally belligerent being, upon entering the Quasi-Saint rank, immediately challenged the many-years Quasi-Saint Sun Wukong.

To this, Sun Wukong did not refuse.

The two rebellious monkeys began a great duel in the distant Celestial Domain.

The momentum was earth-shattering, drawing exclamations from countless beings.

"Daoist Lord, should we stop them?" Shen Gongbao asked worriedly.

"No need, it’s just sparring."

"Besides, they indeed have been holding back too long, it’s good to stretch their muscles." Lin Heng said with a smile, not concerned about the battle between the two monkeys.

"State Preceptor, I see you seem to be on the verge of becoming a Quasi-Saint too?" Lin Heng asked with a smile.

"In the Celestial Court, cultivation is naturally with half the effort and twice the result. If it goes smoothly, entering Quasi-Saint should only be a matter of finding the right opportunity." Shen Gongbao explained.

"I have heard that Nezha has also made great progress over these decades?" Lin Heng asked.

"Yes." Shen Gongbao nodded with emotion, "My martial nephew, after all, was a prodigy of the ages. Had it not been for Li Jing, he would not have been delayed for hundreds of thousands of years."

"Now that his inner conflict is resolved, he should soar like a dragon."

"Indeed, after all, he was once a legend." Lin Heng nodded, then said, "By the way, I have something I need you to do."

"Please, Daoist Lord, tell me."

"Announce to the world that I will have a battle with Yang Jian!"

"Oh, uh... what?" Shen Gongbao reacted, hesitating as he frowned at Lin Heng, "Daoist Lord, why is that?"

He knew Lin Heng and Yang Jian would have a battle.

But this battle should be initiated by Yang Jian.

Now the Celestial Court has both internal and external troubles.

Why would the Daoist Lord choose this time?

Shen Gongbao was puzzled.

But then he understood the Daoist Lord’s intention.

"Only in this way can Yang Jian be found."

"And only then will Yang Jian come here." Lin Heng said calmly, but his gaze was deep as an abyss.

Shen Gongbao realized that the Daoist Lord had important matters to discuss with Yang Jian, and was about to inquire with curiosity.

But Lin Heng shook his head to stop him, pointing to the sky.

Shen Gongbao understood immediately; this was extremely important.

They could not discuss it.

Otherwise.

The Saints would become aware.

"What does the Daoist Lord intend to do?" Shen Gongbao was filled with uncertainty, but he could only suppress his curiosity and said, "I will take care of it immediately."

...

Soon.

The proclamation from the Daoist Celestial Court was issued.

Taixu Celestial Venerable, publicly declared a life-and-death battle with Yang Jian!

Even though this proclamation could not be spread throughout the world by the quasi-Saints of the Celestial Court.

Shen Gongbao managed to spread it throughout the Celestial Court.

Many beings who fled the Celestial Court naturally brought this news outside.

And such widely known news inevitably attracted speculation from various forces.

Hence, it quickly spread through the Grand Thousand Upper Realm.

Unquestionably, it caused an uproar.

"What does this mean?"

"Why does he want a battle with Yang Jian at this time?"

In Great Qin.

The entire court was filled with ministers puzzled.

The Old Dragon King and Emperor Ying Zheng were also at a loss.

...

"Interesting, truly interesting."

"As the centennial draws near, instead of figuring out how to save the Daoist Celestial Court, he wants to engage in a life-and-death struggle with Yang Jian."

"How utterly ridiculous."

In the Western Buddha Country, all the Bodhisattvas laughed, completely unable to comprehend what the Lord of the Dao Court was thinking.

But a group of Buddhas secretly speculated.

"Could it be, knowing that he can’t break the deadlock, he aims to hand over the Celestial Court to Yang Jian through a great battle in order to save Daoism?"

"But it seems he’s forgotten, Venerable Emperor Chong’en wishes to kill him, and our Buddha Country seeks to destroy the entire Dao tradition."

"So, even if it’s handed over to Yang Jian, what will happen?"

The Buddhas pondered, their expressions dismissive.

And beyond the universe.

Venerable Emperor Chong’en observed the world, sneering incessantly.
