My version of Heavenly Dao is too old, so it's full of bugs.

Chapter 177 The Star of Wealth Ascends!

The Lei Department of Xinhai City arrested a total of 186 descendants of the divine bloodline this time, and in just one day, 11 of them have already confessed. This efficiency has astonished everyone.

It has to be Li Wei; that guy's work ability is truly astounding.

Now, the leaders of the Immortal Mansion in Xinhai City can finally breathe a sigh of relief!
It's good that someone has confessed!

They fear that if many of the gods refuse to admit their guilt, Xinhai City will ultimately bear the pressure!
Now that someone has confessed, they have secured the moral high ground, so the pressure has shifted to the other divine children.

"Hopefully they can face reality soon..."

Lei Bu, interrogation room.

Yang Zhen, who had been personally captured by Li Wei, immediately asked his family's lawyer after seeing him, "How is it? When will my father and grandfathers be able to get me out of here?"

"Sigh... Young Master, confess your sins."

"what?"

Yang Zhen thought he had misheard: "Were you just joking with me?"

The lawyer from the Yang family sighed and said, "Young Master, I'm not joking."

"The Heavenly Emperor's special envoy's investigation is already righteous, and with the Zhongzhou Pharmaceutical Group's instigation, a strong opposition to our Divine Blood Clan's abuse of dark cultivation has now formed throughout the Immortal Sphere!"

"This trend is unstoppable, otherwise we will all become the target of everyone's criticism!"

"So the master hopes that you can confess your sins first. When you get to hell, we will naturally bribe the ghost messengers to give you a 'good performance' rating and reduce your sentence in various ways. Theoretically, you can be out in twenty or thirty years at most. Just think of it as a trip."

With the power of the Yang family, they could turn even hell into paradise, so Yang Zhen wasn't worried about his living conditions after he went down there.

But he couldn't swallow his anger.

"Our Yang family possesses superior divine blood. Are we just going to stand by and watch these bastards bully us like this?"

"Young Master, rest assured, the people from the Thunder Department and the Immortal Mansion in Xinhai City will die one after another within sixty years. As for Huang Xiang, that special envoy of the Heavenly Emperor, although we cannot touch him, we will do our best to prevent him from becoming an immortal!"

"Everyone involved in this will pay the price!"

Divine blood must not be defiled!

What's more, they were publicly executed this time.

So if it weren't for the fact that the whole world was watching Xinhai, the enraged Divine Blood Families would have already slapped everyone in Xinhai City to death.

However, just because we can't kill them now doesn't mean we can't kill them in the future!

Once the hype surrounding this matter subsides, no one will care if something "accident" happens to the people of Xinhai City, and they will naturally have no more scruples.

Hearing this, Yang Zhen finally felt a little better, but he quickly gritted his teeth and said, "Don't touch Li Wei yet. When I get back from serving my sentence in hell, I'm going to kill him with my own hands!!"

That bastard dared to destroy his own body; he had to wash away this humiliation himself.

To everyone's surprise, the Yang family lawyer shook his head again: "You can't touch Li Wei, because the patriarch has already decided to recruit him!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen flew into a rage, grabbing the lawyer by the collar and saying, "Has my father gone mad? This bastard beat my body to a pulp and insulted the Yang family, and you actually want to recruit him?"

"Young Master, you are unaware of this! According to our observations, Li Wei has likely become a rising star in the Heavenly Court's enforcement system through this incident! Once he reaches the Nascent Soul stage, he will undoubtedly be able to condense the corresponding Wish Power Crystal, turning it into an invaluable celestial mine!"

Livy's attainment of faith could not be kept secret.

After all, the families with divine bloodlines are not fools. Over the long course of time, they have thoroughly understood all the conditions for becoming a god!
Therefore, the Yang family only needs to take a look at Li Wei's current popularity to understand everything.

However, the Yang family never expected that Li Wei would be able to obtain the title of "Deceitful and Famous" by exploiting a loophole in the Heavenly Dao 1.0 system, and thus acquire the wish power crystal that only Nascent Soul cultivators could condense ahead of time.

This led them to make a huge strategic miscalculation.

"Young Master, please don't be angry. Once we bring Li Wei under our command, won't you have a chance to deal with him?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen indeed abandoned his murderous intent.

The power of wishes is far too important to the divine family. If they could extract the power of wishes from Li Wei, he would also benefit, so naturally he would not oppose the family's decision.

Moreover, if one becomes a celestial mine, one can forget about becoming an immortal for the rest of one's life, and will suffer endless pain, becoming a resource for others' cultivation, unable to live or die. Such an end is worse than death.

He's waiting to see that day!
"Haha! Let's do it that way then."

After the lawyer nodded, Yang went out and called over Lei, the official in charge: "Go tell your Inspector Li that my young master has confessed."

After seeing even a high-ranking divine bloodline like Yang Zhen confess his crimes, those who were initially very tough began to back down.

Given their status, even if they went to hell, they would soon return early due to "good behavior," so why continue to resist the trend here?

As a result, more and more people began to confess.

Seeing this, Director Jiang of Zhongzhou Pharmaceutical Group decided to press his advantage and hoped that Xinhai City could hold a live broadcast to publicly confiscate the dark cultivation from these divine sons, so as to further enhance the cultivators' sense of awe.

However, Huang Xiang's consent must be obtained first.

The two sides are currently in a honeymoon period of cooperation, and he doesn't want to offend this Heavenly Emperor's special envoy over this matter. Upon learning of this, Huang Xiang immediately sought out Li Wei: "Brother Li, what are your thoughts on confiscating cultivation?"

“From the perspective of our Thunder Department, the Heavenly Laws stipulate that illegal gains can be confiscated, so there is no problem from the perspective of the Heavenly Laws. But how will such a large amount of cultivation be stored? How will it be managed? Who will manage it?”

The 186 divine sons, some of whom recharged several hundred million, and others several billion, added up to a total of about 800 billion in cultivation points.

Such a large amount of cultivation must require a sound management system.

Other than that,

Li Wei had another concern:
"Currently, only the cultivation transfer payment system on the dark web can manifest cultivation in the Three Realms. So if we want to confiscate it, we will definitely have to use this system ourselves. In that case, we might give someone with ulterior motives a handle to use against us."

Huang Xiang said with a headache, "This is also my biggest worry! The cultivation transfer payment system on the dark web is ultimately illegal. If we use it, wouldn't that be a disguised form of encouragement?"

There was no such problem when they stood up to arrest Chen Haicheng. Because of the arrest, Li Wei directly killed him. So in the end, the entire Golden Core became evidence of their crimes, and the Heavenly Court naturally had procedures to deal with the Golden Core.

However, it's impossible to kill all of these divine sons now, let alone take away all their golden cores. We can only confiscate the portion of their cultivation obtained through illegal transactions.

This is where the conflict comes into play.

In Heaven,
Some things may seem insignificant, but they are matters of principle. You can't even think about them, let alone touch them, or you'll be in big trouble!

So even though the cultivation transfer payment system on the dark web is right there, they can't use it.

Li Wei looked up at the dark night sky and couldn't help but sigh, "If only the Heavenly Court had its own cultivation transfer system."

Huang Xiang seemed to remember something and said with some surprise, "Logically speaking, His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor should have returned by now. Perhaps he was delayed by something..."

"But it's alright! Once His Majesty and the gods return, the Heavenly Dao will naturally be renewed, and corresponding Heavenly Laws will be enacted to regulate the cultivation transfer payment system on the Dark Web!"

"At worst, we can put aside the matter of confiscating cultivation points for now and deal with it after His Majesty returns!"

Just as Huang Xiang was thinking this...

Suddenly, a piercing clap of thunder echoed through the pitch-black night.

Immediately afterwards, countless tribulation clouds filled the northern sky, forming a terrifying lightning tribulation that shocked the world!
Huang Xiang, who was sitting in the chair, suddenly stood up and said with an extremely envious look in his eyes, "Thunderclouds shaking the world and burying the stars—this is the tribulation of ascension! I never expected that a Nascent Soul cultivator would actually break through the barrier between immortals and mortals at this time and is about to achieve the position of immortal god!"

If we compare mortals to caterpillars, then the four realms of Qi Refining, Foundation Building, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul are the process by which the caterpillars accumulate and mature, while the Divine Transformation realm is like the caterpillar spinning a cocoon and pupating, completing its final metamorphosis in the pupa, transforming from a worm into a butterfly.

Only by breaking free from their cocoons and transforming into butterflies can cultivators ascend to the heavens.

Therefore, everyone says that the Nascent Soul stage is the final step to ascension, while the Deity Transformation stage is the true process of ascension!

To become a god,

Sufficient accumulation is necessary.

Currently, whether it's Huang Xiang, Mi Yuanbei, or the top-tier divine blood Kong Miaodan, the reason they are still stuck at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage is to prepare for the early accumulation of experience for the Divine Transformation stage.

So seeing others ascend to immortality, he couldn't help but feel a little envious.

"This is ascension?"

As a lightning cultivator, Li Wei could experience the terror of the lightning tribulation in the sky more clearly than others!
If he wasn't mistaken, the lightning tribulation was at least hundreds of thousands of miles away from here, and might even have come from the Northern Wilderness Juzhou in the northern part of Zhongzhou!
If the Ascension Tribulation is so powerful even across a single province, how terrifying must the pressure be for cultivators facing the Heavenly Tribulation head-on?
"Brother Huang, is everyone's ascension this terrifying?"

Huang Xiang had already sensed something was wrong, so he frowned and shook his head, saying, "Normally, the ascension tribulation can only cover one or two cities at most. It's unheard of for it to cover an entire state, let alone be transmitted from the Northern Wilderness to the Central State. There's a big problem with this person's ascension!"

The voice just fell,

Amidst the boundless lightning tribulation in the sky, a jade seal suddenly rose up, bearing the eight large characters: "Bestowed by Heaven, May Your Life Be Long and Prosperous." It shone like eight suns upon the world, drawing the attention of countless people.

By the mandate of Heaven, may your life be long and prosperous.

Since I am here to command Heaven and Earth and govern all things, I will ensure that all beings in the Three Realms live long and prosper.

Throughout the entire Three Realms, only one person possesses such power.

—The Supreme Emperor of Heaven!
This has caused chaos throughout the entire human realm!
"To pass the tribulation with the Heavenly Emperor's seal, isn't that cheating?"

really!

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, the Nascent Soul cultivator effortlessly pierced through the unprecedentedly terrifying tribulation clouds, then transformed into a crimson star, rising slowly from the northern lands and soaring all the way to the center of the sky, illuminating the entire firmament.

"A star appears in the north, carrying the color red of auspiciousness. It should be ascending the position of the God of Wealth, but the only vacant position in the God of Wealth's office is currently occupied by... the True Lord of Prosperity!!"

Li Wei's eyes widened.

Subconsciously, a series of previous cases came to mind.

The corruption scandal in the Dragon Transformation Realm erupted, and the previous Lord Zhaoli was killed by the Heavenly Emperor, leaving the position of Minister of Finance vacant. Then, the collapse of the Dragon Transformation Realm led to the appearance of an evil god. The Heavenly Emperor personally led an expedition to lure away all the gods and saints, leaving the Heavenly Dao of the Three Realms in a temporary vacuum without an administrator.

Now, a new Immortal Lord Zhaoli, after attracting an unprecedented and terrifying heavenly tribulation, actually ascended to godhood with the imperial seal bestowed by the Heavenly Emperor, and integrated himself into the Heavenly Dao System.

hiss! !

What exactly is His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor plotting?!
