Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

287: Chapter 288 It was the Azure Emperor and Emperor Haotian who made the first move!The content recorded upon it caused waves of shock to surge within Immortal King Xuanhuang’s heart.

But his expression remained as calm as a still well; he discreetly stowed the token away, tucking it into his robes.

Once the matters in the hall were concluded, Emperor Cang waved his sleeve to dismiss the assembly.

The immortals filed out one after another. Immortal King Xuanhuang blended into the crowd, returning to his Xuanhuang Heavenly Palace at an unhurried pace.

He closed the palace doors tightly and sat alone on a green jade couch, taking out the token and examining it over and over for a long time.

In the end, he merely sighed and tucked the token back into his robes.

...

Meanwhile, over at the Divine Court, it was a similar scene.

Emperor Haotian, the Lord of the Divine Court, had also summoned all the God Kings and God Generals under his command to the Divine Palace of the Firmament.

Emperor Haotian sat upon the main seat, exuding an air of natural authority without even being angry.

He began by repeating the same rhetoric Emperor Cang had used.

Regarding the battle with the Buddhist Sect, he and Emperor Cang had intervened to help, repelling Chenyue and Long Da.

The Heavenly Court possessed wild ambitions and must be guarded against.

The Heaven and Earth Boundless Great Tribulation was approaching; the three parties had to form an alliance.

After hearing this, the gods of the Divine Court looked at each other, but none dared to object.

Emperor Haotian spoke a few more words to boost morale, essentially saying that with the three parties’ combined strength, the Heavenly Court was nothing to fear, and when the decisive battle came, all gods would be rewarded.

The gods bowed their heads in agreement, shouting in unison that the God Emperor was wise.

Emperor Haotian nodded with satisfaction and dismissed the crowd, remaining alone in the hall, his gaze drifting through the palace doors toward the horizon, lost in thought.

...

At the Heavenly Court, the atmosphere was completely different from that of the Immortal Court and the Divine Court.

Immortal Venerable Chenyue had sustained significant injuries and was recuperating in a Secret Realm deep within the Heavenly Court.

That Secret Realm was rich in Spiritual Qi, with spiritual springs gushing and immortal flowers blooming everywhere; it was a healing place personally created by Long Da, the Lord of the Heavenly Court.

Immortal Venerable Chenyue sat cross-legged on a jade platform, her immortal essence flowing around her like threads of silk, slowly repairing her damaged Dao foundation.

In the battle a hundred years ago, she had fought the Five Ancestors of Buddhism alone and had already gained the upper hand.

Later, Emperor Cang and Emperor Haotian joined in. With seven Immortal Emperor-level existences besieging her, she, though formidable, gradually found herself overwhelmed.

After fighting for over ninety years, she finally showed fatigue, and the opponents seized a weakness to strike at her Origin.

Had Long Da not intervened in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable.

Long Da was currently sitting opposite her, his expression calm.

Immortal Venerable Chenyue at this moment mentioned her Origins, coming from the Wuji Dao Sect.

This Sect was not in the Immortal Realm, nor did it belong to any Major Thousand Worlds; it was hidden in an independent space deep within the Chaos.

The Sect’s rules were strict; although she was the current spokesperson, she could not mobilize the Sect’s power at will.

Because the Heaven and Earth Boundless Great Tribulation was approaching, even more ancient spokespeople within the Sect had declared that the Sect would not go to war over anyone’s personal grievances.

Thus, she could not command the Wuji Dao Sect to descend upon the Immortal Realm to sweep away the Immortal Court, the Divine Court, and the Buddhist Sect for the Heavenly Court.

However, she herself was willing to join forces with Long Da to attack the Immortal Court, the Divine Court, and the Buddhist Sect to avenge her old grievances.

Upon hearing this, Long Da merely smiled and said that the Heavenly Court alone was enough.

Immortal Venerable Chenyue did not question the truth of his words.

Although this Heavenly Emperor sometimes spoke with boundless arrogance, his strength was truly beyond reproach.
