Chapter 299: War in the Celestial Realm (Part 4)

Trapped in the air, his body couldn’t move at all. The huge hole in his heart seemed to be a bottomless abyss, sapping all of his strength.

The old man’s Dao, the Great Dao that he had comprehended all his life, directly began to disintegrate into the air. It was extremely brilliant, like beautiful fireworks blooming in the night. It was beautiful beyond words.

Although it was short, it shocked the Celestial Realm at this moment.

Right in front of everyone’s eyes, Lin Jiufeng executed a great immortal technique. Then, with a tap of his finger, an immortal died gorgeously.

This was too terrifying.

This scene shocked everyone. The remnants of the Immortal Court gasped.

The way they looked at Lin Jiufeng changed.

The arrogance from before disappeared.

Replacing it was crazy killing intent.

The seven old seniors in the lead stared at Lin Jiufeng at this moment. It was as if Buddha had opened his eyes. Hell appeared in their eyes, carrying deep killing intent.

“It seems that you dare to come to the Celestial Realm to behave atrociously because you are relying on your own strength.” An old man with a wooden expression said. His five claws spread out like eagle claws, extremely terrifying. They streaked across the sky, leaving deep scars.

Lin Jiufeng looked at him and asked, “How long has it been since you guys visited the outside world?”

The wooden-faced old man frowned. “What’s there to see in the mortal realm outside?”

When the others heard of the mortal realm, they disdained it.

But Lin Jiufeng said seriously, “The common people of the mortal realm are living a serious life, do you know that? The outside world is now ruled by a dynasty called the Yuhua God Dynasty.”

“Under the rule of the Yuhua God Dynasty, the old have support, the young have people to depend on, and the law is impartial. The children have schools to attend and have a promising future. Those who don’t know how to cultivate won’t be in danger either. They can learn other skills to provide for their families, don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and reproduce,” Lin Jiufeng explained.

But the remnants of the Immortal Court looked at Lin Jiufeng as if he was mentally disabled.

“Mortals will die after 100 years, they are like leeks, able to grow again and be harvested once in a while. It’s enough just to ensure they won’t die. You are an immortal, why are you telling us about the matters of mortals?” Beside the wooden-faced old man, a black-robed old man sneered, his words disdainful of mortals.

Lin Jiufeng looked at him with a deep gaze. Suddenly, he smiled and said, “You don’t want to hear about the mortals? Then, I’ll tell you about the Myriad Races. You guys should be interested in them.”

As soon as these words came out, these people were indeed interested.

The contempt, disdain, and even disregard for mortals disappeared.

“The Myriad Races, have they returned to this world?” The wooden-faced old man asked.

“Of course, they have come to this world.” Lin Jiufeng nodded.

“Then, can the Yuhua God Dynasty that you mentioned resist the Myriad Races?” The black-robed old man chuckled. He looked down on the Yuhua God Dynasty from the bottom of his heart.

What future did a dynasty that cared about leek-like mortals have?

The remnants of the Immortal Court wouldn’t care about them. Back then, the Immortal Court was high and mighty. Now, they were still high and mighty.

Lin Jiufeng looked at them. His eyes were slightly cold, but he still smiled and said, “The Yuhua God Dynasty that you guys look down on has suppressed the Myriad Races. The most powerful Primordial God Mountain among the Myriad Races has also been destroyed by the Yuhua God Dynasty. Countless races have joined the Yuhua God Dynasty. Everyone gets along harmoniously, and in the era of spiritual energy recovery, we move into the new era together.”

“Impossible!” The wooden-faced old man’s eyes widened as he shouted decisively, not believing Lin Jiufeng’s words at all.

“The Myriad Races will join a God Dynasty established by the Human Race?”

“The Primordial God Mountain was destroyed by the Yuhua God Dynasty?”

“Live in harmony and move into a new era together?”

The stoic-looking old man questioned Lin Jiufeng with a clear attitude.

Then, he shouted decisively, “What you said is just a pipe dream!”

The others had the same attitude. It wasn’t like they had never interacted with the Myriad Races before.

Although they didn’t think much of the Myriad Races, they were indeed much stronger than the Human Race. How could it be as Lin Jiufeng said?

Lin Jiufeng looked at this group of stubborn people. He sneered and asked, “How long has it been since you lot went out to take a look?”

“You lot have always been high and mighty. You lot have never come into contact with the mortal world before. You lot stand in the clouds and look at this world, but you don’t know that the era has long changed. The world that you know has long changed into a different world.”

“As for you all, you all clung to the original impression and refused to understand it. Instead, you all rebutted me righteously. You guys are simply too foolish.”

“A group of ancient rotten wood, frogs in a well, morons who covered their eyes!”

Lin Jiufeng scolded impolitely.

The old man with a wooden expression looked at Lin Jiufeng. He was tall and had eagle-like claws. He was tall and thin like a mummy. He stared at Lin Jiufeng, bringing with him a cold feeling.

“It seems that you came here for those mortals,” the black-robed old man said sinisterly.

Lin Jiufeng shook his head and said, “Not for the mortals, but for this world, the mortal world that you guys look down on.”

“What high-sounding sentiments!” The wooden-faced old man shouted, “You dare to say you are here for the sake of this world?”

“Why can’t I say it?” Lin Jiufeng stood with his hands behind his back. He raised his head and chest, looking at the group of old and young people in front of him. He was fearless.

He rebuked them in an unrestrained manner.

“No one can say that it’s for the sake of this world. What you said is just making yourself look dignified. What treasures in the Celestial Realm do you fancy that are worthy of you spending so much effort to convince Zhou Qing? What treasures have you promised him to make him betray us?” The black-robed old man asked coldly.

The group of remnants gradually surrounded Lin Jiufeng. They closed in from three directions and trapped Lin Jiufeng, so they weren’t in a hurry and wanted to probe more.

They hated Zhou Qing’s betrayal to the core. Hence, they wanted to figure out Lin Jiufeng’s motive and why Zhou Qing betrayed them.

Lin Jiufeng thought carefully and said, “Indeed, I have my eyes on the treasure in this Celestial Realm. Back then, you lot stole the source energy of the world, this is what I’m targeting.”

The wooden-faced old man laughed. He laughed disdainfully and said, “You are really audacious. This is the foundation of our Celestial Realm, yet you still dare to covet it?”

“It’s a treasure, after all. Everyone wants treasures, and I’m no exception.” Lin Jiufeng was surrounded, but he wasn’t worried at all. Therefore, he shared his thoughts.

“Then, how did you convince Zhou Qing to betray us?” The black-robed old man persisted.

He just wanted to figure out why.

Lin Jiufeng looked at him and said, “I didn’t promise him anything. I only said that I could crush this Celestial Realm, so he agreed. He agreed for his own freedom, not for the treasures.”

“Freedom?”

“Bullsh*t freedom!”

“In the Celestial Realm, he can be considered a commander. This isn’t freedom for him?”

The black-robed old man spat.

“I’ve had enough of a dog for you all!” Zhou Qing suddenly came out from Daoist Huang Long’s Small World and stood behind Lin Jiufeng as he said.

He had already understood the current situation. His only way out was to hope for Lin Jiufeng to destroy the Celestial Realm and kill this group of remnants.

Other than that, he had no other choice.

The black-robed old man stared at Zhou Qing, his eyes blazing with fury.

Unlike his anger towards Lin Jiufeng, his anger this time carried endless regret.

“I trusted you so much and promoted you. In the future, when the Celestial Realm is completed and the glory of the Immortal Court is restored, you will be the first batch of meritorious ministers of the Immortal Court. Why did you betray me?” The black-robed old man gritted his teeth, enduring his anger as he questioned Zhou Qing.

His hand was trembling. He was afraid that he would kill Zhou Qing with one slap.

Zhou Qing sneered, “Trust in me is the result of tens of thousands of years of flattery, bootlicking, and being a dog in front of you. Your so-called trust is by stepping on my dignity. Don’t make it sound so dignified.”

“As for restoring the glory of the Immortal Court?”

“These are just words of a dreamer.”

“You guys have been hiding in the immortal realms for more than 10,000 years, not daring to leave. You guys don’t even know the information of the outside world. You guys sealed yourselves and hid in the Celestial Realm to live a stable life. Other than oppressing us and enjoying the supreme glory, immersing yourself in the glory of the past Immortal Court and daydreaming, what else have you guys done?”

“A group of incompetent trash!”

“You guys think you can restore the glory of the Immortal Court? You guys are simply laughable. I would rather believe in Lord Lin Jiufeng than believe that you useless people of the Immortal Court can restore your glory.”

“Lying on your old glory books and dreaming. This is the daily routine of you useless people.”

“The spirit liquid is in my hands now, you guys won’t be able to threaten me anymore. As long as Lord Lin Jiufeng can kill you guys and crush the Celestial Realm, I will win the bet.”

Zhou Qing cursed loudly. His words were shocking. One after another, he scolded the remnants of the Immortal Court until they were dumbfounded. Then, they glared at him, but they were unable to interrupt him.

After suppressing his emotions for more than 10,000 years, Zhou Qing decided to go all out.

The worst-case scenario was that Lin Jiufeng would fail and he would die with him.

Hence, he might as well speak his mind first.

He vented the anger and resentment in his heart.

“You dare to scold us? You’re seeking death!” The black-robed old man was completely enraged.

His anger had truly erupted like a volcano that had been silent for 10,000 years. The earth quaked and the mountains shook, and it was unstoppable.

Anger towards Lin Jiufeng.

Anger towards Zhou Qing.

He attacked decisively. A huge hand condensed in the air and directly pressed down.

Heaven Raising Palm!

This was an immortal technique from the Immortal Court. It came crashing down, wanting to slap Zhou Qing to death.

“Your opponent today is me!” Lin Jiufeng said coldly. He took a step forward, and with a bang, a stone platform appeared beneath him.

General Appointing Platform!

This was Lin Jiufeng’s confidence, a powerful treasure of unknown grade.

[Millions of gods as generals, billions of lives as soldiers.]

[3,000 stars as chess pieces, the ancient blue sky as the chessboard.]

At this moment, it truly displayed its might.

Boom!

As soon as the General Appointing Platform appeared, the Celestial Realm trembled. Terrifying energy quickly spread like an irredeemable tsunami, slapping against the shore. An extremely terrifying force instantly destroyed everything.

Including the black-robed old man’s Heaven Raising Palm.

The huge hand mudra condensed from this immortal technique was instantly destroyed. Then, it was swept up and rushed towards the black-robed old man.

The black-robed old man’s pupils shrank violently. He waved his sleeve, and a huge shield appeared.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The terrifying energy struck the shield, causing it to tremble, crack, and then explode.

Pu!

The black-robed old man spat out a large mouthful of blood and was directly sent flying. Boiling hot energy washed over his body.

“Attack together and kill this person!” The black-robed old man roared angrily. His expression was hideous and in extreme pain.

As soon as the General Appointing Platform appeared, the group remnants of the past Immortal Court couldn’t sit still at all. Each of them attacked, wanting to suppress the General Appointing Platform and kill Lin Jiufeng.
