Chapter 635 You are the first one in the Three Realms!
Chapter 635 You are the first one in the Three Realms!
Lightning tore through the sea of clouds, and a dazzling divine rainbow shot straight from the summit of Kunlun Mountain toward the thirty-third heaven.
Chen Changsheng stood atop the Thunder Spear, leaving the vast spiritual energy of Kunlun Immortal Realm far behind. The gale-force winds whipped his robes, making them flutter loudly.
He glanced back at the Jade Void Palace, which had been reduced to a tiny dot, but felt no emotion whatsoever; in fact, he almost wanted to laugh.
The Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, including the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.
This feud has now been completely set in motion, and it's the kind of knot that can't be untied.
But it doesn't matter.
How many powerful figures has Chen Changsheng offended along the way?
Too many lice don't itch, too much debt doesn't worry.
His divine sense sank into his body, and inside the Chaos Gourd, a crimson pearl was quietly floating, radiating endless light and heat. It was the supreme innate spiritual treasure, the Fire Spirit Pearl.
In a corner of the system space, a simple and unadorned fragment, yet imbued with supreme Daoist essence, resonates with three other fragments, their mysterious and inexplicable energy flowing between them.
The fourth fragment of a supreme innate treasure!
This is the biggest gain from this trip!
Although the Fire Spirit Pearl is excellent, being a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, it is ultimately just an external object.
But these fragments of innate treasures are different. Once they are all collected and fused together, they will form a brand new innate treasure that belongs exclusively to Chen Changsheng!
Its significance far surpasses that of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.
"The Chan School...the Primordial Beginning..."
Chen Changsheng sneered inwardly.
The members of the Chan Sect will probably have to hold their anger until the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods.
But this is for the best. The more the Chan Sect hates him, the less restraint he will have in attacking them during the Investiture of the Gods.
He was originally a disciple of the Jie Sect, so he was firmly seated from the beginning and there was no possibility of him wavering.
The Thunder Spear moved with incredible speed, and before long, the outline of the South Heavenly Gate came into view.
The heavenly soldiers guarding the gate saw the familiar lightning from afar, and their expressions immediately became extremely respectful, even straightening their backs a bit.
"Welcome back to the Heavenly Emperor!"
A unified, resounding voice rang out, filled with awe.
In today's Heavenly Court, who doesn't know the name of Chen Changsheng, the God of Law Enforcement?
This guy is a ruthless character who dares to barge into the sacred temple of a saint and still manage to escape unscathed.
Chen Changsheng nodded slightly in response, and without pausing, he transformed into a streak of light and rushed straight into the South Heavenly Gate, flying towards the Lingxiao Palace.
Inside the Lingxiao Palace at this moment, celestial mist swirls and auspicious colors abound.
The Jade Emperor sat high on his dragon throne, with civil and military officials lined up on both sides below, holding a court assembly.
Just then, a bolt of lightning flashed in from outside the hall and stopped abruptly inside, revealing Chen Changsheng's figure.
His appearance instantly silenced the entire hall.
All the eyes of the gods and immortals were fixed on him, their gazes varied—some curious, some awe-inspiring, and some deeply hidden jealousy.
"This...isn't this the Heavenly Lord of Law Enforcement?"
"Wasn't he sent by His Majesty to Kunlun Mountain to deliver the God-Slaying Whip? How come he's back so soon?"
"Judging from his expression, he seems quite relaxed. Could it be that his trip went smoothly?"
"Smoothly? That's Jade Void Palace! The Daoist temple of a sage of the Chan Sect! Those Golden Immortals like Chi Jingzi are not easy to deal with. How could they let him return so easily?"
The immortals whispered among themselves, exchanging glances.
Chen Changsheng seemed oblivious to the gazes and whispers around him. He walked straight to the center of the hall, and respectfully bowed to the Jade Emperor above.
"Your subject, Chen Changsheng, has delivered the God-Slaying Whip to the Jade Void Palace by order of Your Majesty, and has come to report back."
Haotian, seated high above, saw Chen Changsheng return unharmed, and a barely perceptible smile flashed in his eyes.
He raised his hand, and his dignified yet calm voice resounded throughout the entire hall.
"Today's business is over, all the ministers will withdraw from the court."
The gods and immortals were taken aback. The court session had only been halfway through, so why was it adjourned?
But the Heavenly Emperor had already spoken, and no one dared to question him.
"Your Majesty, we respectfully bid you farewell!"
The immortals bowed and then slowly withdrew from the hall. However, as they left, each of them glanced at Chen Changsheng, their eyes filled with curiosity.
They all understood that the Heavenly Emperor wanted to keep the Enforcement Heavenly Lord behind for questioning.
Soon, the once bustling Lingxiao Palace was left with only Chen Changsheng and the Jade Emperor Haotian.
The spacious hall was unusually quiet.
The Jade Emperor vanished from the dragon throne and appeared before Chen Changsheng in the next moment. He looked Chen Changsheng up and down and a genuine smile appeared on his face.
"How was the longevity journey? Did the delivery of the God-Slaying Whip go smoothly?"
Faced with the Jade Emperor's question, Chen Changsheng revealed a playful smile and shrugged.
"It went well, pretty smoothly."
He paused, then changed the subject and added.
"There was a small incident along the way."
"Oh?"
Haotian immediately became interested. He knew that given Chen Changsheng's personality, anything that he called an "interlude" was probably no small matter.
"What incident happened? Tell me about it."
Haotian asked with great interest, even conjuring up two cloud stools and a jade table with a wave of his hand, as if he were ready to listen to a story.
Chen Changsheng didn't stand on ceremony and sat down with a thud, then vividly recounted his experiences at the Jade Void Palace.
He emphasized how he "sensed" the treasure's aura, how he engaged in a heated debate with the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, and how he set up a bet that forced Yuanshi Tianzun to agree.
"...At that time, Chi Jingzi's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He said that I was delusional and that not a single blade of grass in Yuxu Palace could escape the perception of a sage."
"I thought, isn't this perfect? So I went along with what he said and made a bet with my Uncle Master Yuanshi: if I couldn't dig anything out, I would have to pay with a high-grade innate spiritual treasure. If I did dig something out, it would be mine."
Chen Changsheng spoke with great enthusiasm, as if the thrilling confrontation was nothing more than an interesting game to him.
Haotian listened with great interest, and when he heard Chen Changsheng dare to point at Yuanshi Tianzun's futon and say that there were treasures underneath, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You little rascal, you've got some nerve! Daring to disturb the ground beneath Yuanshi's futon, you're the first in the Three Realms to do so!"
"Isn't it because I have my uncle backing me up?"
Chen Changsheng chuckled and casually offered a compliment.
Haotian chuckled and scolded, urging, "And then? Did you really dig something up?"
"Of course!"
Chen Changsheng slapped his thigh, his expression becoming excited.
"I took out my precious shovel, and with two 'bangs,' I dug open the white jade floor tiles that were protected by the sage's seal. You didn't see it, though; Guang Chengzi and the others' eyes were wide open like copper bells!"
"Finally, they dug out a wooden box from under that futon. When they opened it, wow, the entire Jade Void Palace lit up!"
At this point, Chen Changsheng deliberately kept everyone in suspense.
Haotian's curiosity was completely piqued, and he pressed for an answer: "What kind of treasure is it that could fool even Yuanshi?"
Chen Changsheng smiled mysteriously, and with a flick of his wrist, a fiery red, radiant pearl appeared in his palm.
