Immortality begins with meditation puppets

The Heavenly Emperor's Walker and the Celestial Master of the Present World are undoubtedly two high-ranking and powerful positions. In ancient times, countless people would fight tooth and nail for them.

In the modern world, these two positions are quite prestigious, but in the past, the major sects of various realms only showed them superficial respect and did not pay much attention to them.

The reason is that a position is a position, and power is power. If these two positions were in the hands of two seventh-level Dao Lords, then the whole world would submit and kowtow to their superiors. But if they were in the hands of Su Qing and Tong Chang...

One who was previously a fourth-level Nascent Soul cultivator, then a fifth-level Deity Transformation cultivator, and even if he got lucky and advanced to the sixth-level Void Refinement stage, he could only barely get on the table and still had to sit at the very end. If you give him face, he's a Heavenly Emperor's attendant; if you don't, Su Qing is just a puppeteer who resells puppets and begs for orders everywhere!

Tong Chang is even more difficult to take seriously. He was born a puppet, but he was favored by the Ancestral Celestial Master and that's how he got the position of Celestial Master in the present world. Even if the Four Celestial Masters had given him all the good fortune, he would still be a useless fool. He has no chance of having the same illustrious achievements as the Four Celestial Masters of antiquity, whose words and deeds would make the heavens and the earth tremble.
Because Su Qing and Tong Chang's abilities were only average, the Heavenly Emperor's Walker and the Celestial Master of the Present World had only a mediocre deterrent effect on the major sects of the heavens.

Therefore, after the incident at the Lingxiao Palace, they only wanted to cover it up and pretend nothing had happened. Even when Su Qing and Tong Chang exposed them, their first reaction was not shame or remorse, but anger and embarrassment. They blamed the two for disrespecting them. Yes, they had done wrong, but did they deserve to be criticized? Did they have the right to say anything? When Su Qing and Tong Chang said they would judge them, some of the less refined high-ranking cultivators from major sects almost burst out laughing. They thought the two were adorably foolish, daring to take a trivial matter seriously and treat them, the high-ranking cultivators of major sects, like little karami.

Even now, after Su Qing and Tong Chang used their authority to mobilize the power of the Tianyuan Realm to judge and execute Bai Shang Tianzun and the two seventh-level Dao Lords of the Lingbao Sect, all the great sects and high-ranking cultivators in the heavens gasped in shock, their hearts pounding with excitement, feeling that the world might be about to change completely today.

"What's going on? Has the consciousness of the Heavenly Origin Realm awakened to this extent? Why didn't it notify us? Although we are in the outside world, we are still its children in a foreign land. We look forward to going home every day. God, you are hurting us!"

"Hey, Su Qing, you brat! And Tong Chang, you old devil! Seeing that the consciousness of the Heavenly Origin Realm has just been revived and is still in a daze, you're trying to coax it into doing things for you like a child. You're utterly despicable and shameless, and utterly hateful!"

“That’s not right. I think the current level of the recovery of the consciousness of heaven and earth is only average. It should be able to control a seventh-level Dao Lord. With the foundation of the Lingbao Sect and the Yuanshi Sect, these two Dao lineages and three sects, as long as they make a little move to protect their two Dao Lords, they should be able to put up a fight against this consciousness.”

"Yes, why did the Yuanshi Sect and the Lingbao Sect chicken out? Why didn't they fight against the consciousness of the Tianyuan Realm?"

"Isn't that even more terrifying? Being able to do something but not daring to is the most terrifying thing. The reason why the Yuanshi Sect and the Lingbao Sect did not protect their Dao Lord is because they know that if they act now, they will not only offend Su Qing and Tong Chang, but also the will of heaven and earth of the Tianyuan Realm. Everyone will be going to the Tianyuan Realm in the future. How can they offend the heavens before they even go there? Aren't they afraid that their disciples will not be able to gain any fortune in the Tianyuan Realm in the future, and will be destroyed by heavenly lightning and earthly fire!"

The great sects of the heavens that have survived from ancient times to the present, and who can still command the winds and rains in all the worlds after countless trials and tribulations, you can call them bad, you can call them cowardly, but you can never call them stupid.

Looking beyond the surface, the sanctions against Su Qing and Tong Chang are certainly chilling, but the underlying implications are even more terrifying.

From this moment on, before the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man were established in the Tianyuan Realm, the two of them were always the most powerful beings in the Tianyuan Realm. Their ignorant and naive will of Heaven and Earth was like a foolish and adorable emperor, giving Su Qing and Tong Chang, these two treacherous ministers, the opportunity to use the emperor to command the princes!

Any cultivator who aspires to achieve great things in the future Tianyuan Realm should avoid offending these two now. They have indeed done wrong today, so it's one thing for them to be judged and punished. But given their integrity, they could easily fabricate some baseless charges against them based on personal likes and dislikes, and have the will of heaven and earth execute them. That would be a true injustice.

The major sects of the heavens are all pragmatic. After Su Qing and Tong Chang demonstrated their true abilities by invoking the heavens to punish them, they had nothing to say and silently accepted the many accusations that had been imposed on them.

Only then did Su Qing turn her gaze to Er Qiang.

"The God of War of Tianyuan is just a God of War. If you want to ascend to the position of a seventh-order god, you still need to expand the scope of your divine office and increase your divine authority. Don't say that your third brother and I, the eldest brother Tong Chang, won't give you the opportunity."

This time, I'm sending you to carry out the trial, which is an opportunity for you to obtain the authority of a divine judicial office, and also to make a name for yourself and expand your influence throughout the myriad realms.

This benefit alone is already great. Second brother, on your path to judgment, you must control yourself. Don't take what you shouldn't take, and don't accept what you shouldn't accept. Even if you do take or accept something, you must hand it over to the public. Never be greedy and reach out for more!

Upon hearing that Su Qing had assigned him a task, Gao Erqiang immediately clasped his hands in agreement.

This time is different from the past. This time, Su Qing and Tong Chang have made such a big fuss that they are clearly the two most untouchable beings in the myriad realms. The fact that they are willing to pull him to stand on their side is a way of giving Gao Erqiang a ray of light.

While boosting Gao Erqiang's reputation, this also added a layer of protection for him, letting all the heavens and the myriad realms know that Gao Erqiang is Su Qing and Tong Chang's man. If anyone dares to criticize his evil origins or try to plot against his Xing Sha Divine Kingdom, don't blame him for having someone behind him who will slap them in the face!
"Big brother, third brother, leave this matter of offending people to me, Erqiang. I'll make sure it's handled perfectly and cleanly, so you won't have wasted your time!"

"Hey, Erqiang, what are you saying? We're doing this for Heaven and Earth. Even if we confiscate or punish those things, we're just entrusting them to Heaven and Earth. We have no intention of taking them for ourselves!"

Tong Chang waved his hand, signaling Erqiang, who was sharpening his knives, to charge at the cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

The two leaders proceeded to call out names one by one from the trial list they had prepared. They started with the major sects across the myriad realms, not only making them return all the benefits they had obtained from the Lingxiao Palace, but also forcing them to pay for their past mistakes. The million-spirit-stone bail and the ten-million-spirit-stone atonement scrolls were the price that wealthy sects had to pay. As for those poor sects, if they dared to make mistakes even without money, who gave them the audacity!
From all the heavens and myriad realms to the original Tianyuan homeland, this upheaval will take several decades to complete.

Su Qing had no intention of paying attention to Gao Erqiang. After this performance with Tong Chang, which demonstrated that the Heavenly Gate of the Tianyuan Realm had loosened and opened its doors to the powerful cultivators of the great sects, the Tianyuan Realm was no longer a lawless place where they could do whatever they wanted just because of their sect's power and their personal cultivation.

He was then invited by the Guangxian Zhenjun of the Yuanshi Sect to the Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom to participate in the Second Anti-Demon Alliance Conference.

This day.

Within the Immortal Qin Kingdom, wise men and women of all ages gathered, firecrackers crackled, and drums resounded.

As the host, the Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom took advantage of this opportunity, which attracted the attention of all the heavens and myriad realms, to demonstrate the strength and resources of their Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom, not letting Su Qing monopolize the limelight, and began to build momentum and show their power in their competition for the Human Emperor's throne.

With a million elite cavalrymen, all men and horses were fully armored, and all were at least second-tier martial artists. Their aura was soaring, and their momentum was as solid as a single force. This million-strong army had previously fought a direct battle against a demon army led by a sixth-tier demon when the Demon Buddha drove the demons to attack various parts of Tianyuan. In that battle, they displayed their might and utterly routed the demons. Since then, their fame has soared, and all the heavens and myriad realms know that there is such a fierce and powerful army in the Tianyuan Realm. They are extremely popular.

With over ten thousand Confucian scholars reciting scriptures for the Martial Emperor, from ancient times to the present, from the foundation of reality to the hearts and minds of the people, from personal qualities to lofty aspirations, from every imaginable and unimaginable aspect, they sang praises to the contemporary Martial Emperor, confirming his legitimacy as the Mandate of Heaven's human emperor. This also opened the eyes of all the heavens and myriad worlds, because flatterers and sycophants exist in all the heavens and myriad worlds, but only the Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom and Han have specially trained a group of people to do this job and even made it a profession.

Cultivators from the Three Mountains and Five Peaks and the Eighteen Sects showcased their talents. These were all sects from various realms that had chosen to develop in the Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom. Their display was intended to express to the myriad realms that the Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom accepted and recognized sects from outside, in order to attract more cultivation talents to the myriad realms. What truly opened the eyes of the myriad realms was that even the high-ranking disciples of the Primordial Beginning Sect were willing to participate in this monkey-like propaganda show. It was clear that the Primordial Beginning Sect had bet on the Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom, and now they had no choice but to work hard for this Immortal Kingdom.

······
After a series of performances, the three giants of the Immortal Qin Martial Kingdom—the contemporary Martial Emperor Zhou Ying, the Guardian General Long Shentian, and the Imperial Hammer Huang Tianlan—three powerful martial artists at the peak of the fifth rank, just one step away from becoming sixth-rank body cultivators, stepped forward together and announced the start of the conference, welcoming representatives from various forces across the myriad realms.

Among them are Guangxian Zhenjun, representing the Yuanshi Sect; Gule Zhenjun, representing the Taishang Sect; Li Zhenjun, representing the Lingbao Sect; Jiang Zhenjun, representing the Wohuang Palace; Kunwu Laoren, representing the Dongwang Sect; Qiuyue Zhenjun, representing the Lunhui Sect; Jianglong Zhenjun, representing the Minghe Sect; and Zhenpeng Tianzun, representing the Wanyao Kingdom...

Most of the attendees were seniors who had participated in the previous session, but some unfamiliar faces were worth noting.

Among them was the Void Queen, who attended the meeting as a representative of the Void race, an event that caused a great uproar throughout the myriad realms.

Because the beings of the void are different from the forces in the myriad realms. Most of those forces in the myriad realms originally came from the Tianyuan Realm. During the Dharma-ending Age of the Tianyuan Realm, they had little affection for the Tianyuan Realm. But now that the spiritual energy of the Tianyuan Realm has been restored and it is once again the supreme realm of the myriad realms, they are like children of the Tianyuan Realm who have been wandering outside, and they all want to go home.

The void creatures, however, are different. Whether in ancient times or in the present world, they have always been hostile to the Tianyuan Realm. They are beings that roam the void, devouring whatever they encounter. It is said that after the myriad realms have dealt with the evil spirits, they should have turned their attention to dealing with them. But now, they also want to come to the Tianyuan Realm to get a share of the spoils. Who can tolerate this?
The beings of Tianyuan Realm haven't said anything yet, because in their eyes, the Void Clan is not much different from other races in the myriad realms; they all come to compete with them for creation because Tianyuan Realm is doing well.

But in the eyes of all the heavens and myriad realms, the Void Clan is utterly shameless. They come to Tianyuan to share in the creation because their ancestors were also from Tianyuan. It is only natural for them to recognize their ancestors and return to Tianyuan. What makes you Void Clan so shameless?
The clamor of opposition did not prevent the Void Clan from joining the Anti-Demon Alliance. This was because, after examining the strength of the Void Clan in the myriad realms and the Tianyuan Realm, it was determined that the strength under the Void Queen's command was only slightly inferior to the three major sects of the Dao lineage, and even surpassed the Eastern King Sect by a significant margin.

They all felt that it was better to turn this race into their allies to fight against the demons than to push this race to the demons and let them unite with the demons.

While the Void Queen, who already possesses the strength of a seventh-tier Dao Lord, is certainly worthy of attention, there are even more remarkable beings out there.

He was a middle-aged cultivator in black robes with black hair and a white beard. His expressionless face and stillness gave people a sense of awe and fear, especially some dragon-like creatures, who instinctively wanted to stay away from him.

Although this being has a human form, he is not a human cultivator. He is one of the nine sons of the Kunpeng Ancestor, named Rift Sky Void Kun, and has the strength of a peak sixth-order great demon.

Its appeal lies in the fact that it has never appeared in the myriad realms before. Although a great being had long ago calculated the secrets of heaven and said that the Kunpeng Ancestor had been in seclusion all these years not to recuperate from his injuries, but to emulate the ancient dragon ancestor and do the work of reducing and seeking emptiness. Just as a dragon has nine sons, he also wanted a Kun to have nine sons, so that the nine sons would force out the impure and chaotic thoughts in his heart, so that he could take another step forward on his path of cultivation. And this Rifting Sky Void Kun must be one of these nine sons. Everyone is curious and will take a second look at it.

The second reason is that it represents the Kunpeng Realm and symbolizes the will of the Kunpeng Ancestor. In the eyes of countless cultivators in the myriad realms, this is even more shameless than the Void Clan. This is because most of the forces in the myriad realms had fought and struggled when they fled the Tianyuan Realm, but they were simply unable to win and had no other choice.

This Kunpeng Ancestor was different. As a strong candidate to be the number one person below the strongest in all the heavens back then, he should have fought for the Tianyuan Realm to the last drop of blood, just like Zhenwu Emperor, Erlang, Wukong and others. However, he did not shed a single drop of blood and turned around and sold the Tianyuan Realm.

With such behavior, how dare he now try to share in the blessings of the Runtian Yuan Realm? Even the most shameless person would think that this old man is utterly shameless. He transferred his anger to his son, coldly glaring at the Rift Sky Void Kun and mocking it repeatedly. (End of this chapter)
