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

Chapter 293 Finally Awakened, Aligning with the Path

Lei Bu Qingxiao Zhenjun, a Taoist master who had already reached the third step of the Dao Integration stage, has now disappeared outside the Ziwei Enclosure of the Shanghao Heavenly Emperor.
Shang Hao was both shocked and furious when he heard the news.

Since He didn't do it, then someone else did it. But who could make a true god disappear so silently outside the Purple Palace of Heaven?
First, the Tian Shi Yuan suddenly subsided, and then the Zi Wei Yuan had an accident.

Is there any safety left in this Heavenly Court?!
The Supreme Emperor was genuinely frightened this time, so he immediately ordered the Thunder Department to thoroughly investigate the entire Ziwei Enclosure and find the True Lord Qingxiao.

A month later, Lei Bu found no trace of him. Qingxiao Zhenjun was nowhere to be found, neither alive nor dead, and left no trace whatsoever. Even his divine position, which he had established in the primordial chaos, had vanished.

A supreme god.

They just disappeared in Heaven like that?

This was no longer just a matter of face; it concerned the safety of all the gods in the Heavenly Court. Therefore, the gods swarmed into the Purple Palace Enclosure, conducting a thorough search of every inch of the surrounding void.
As one of the last people Qingxiao Zhenjun met, Li Wei naturally received special attention and was examined many times for no reason.

If the Heavenly Dao 0.91 system hadn't been powerful enough, Li Wei's problems would probably have been discovered long ago.

However, more tests also have their benefits.

The more people investigate Li Wei, the clearer the suspicion against him will be. Whether it was the previous invasion of the financial prison that caused the sinking of the Heavenly Market Enclosure, or the recent disappearance of True Lord Qingxiao, it cannot be blamed on him.

Li Wei thus skillfully escaped this political vortex.

Even better,

Because of the disappearance of Qingxiao Zhenjun, the attention that was originally focused on Tianshi Yuan has been drawn to Ziwei Yuan. As a result, Li Wei's divine lineage is less likely to be discovered, and he has more time to deeply implant himself in Tianshi Yuan, so that he can better hide himself in the future.

When a pantheon is first established, the traces are most obvious.

After some time, once the methods left by the Heavenly Dao 0.1 system take effect and allow Li Wei's Life Cleansing Orthodox Church pantheon to merge into the Heavenly Market Enclosure, even if a Great Luo Golden Immortal were to come close, it would be very difficult for them to detect it.

So although Qingxiao Zhenjun's disappearance this time had nothing to do with Li Wei, it ultimately benefited him.

[The master's luck is truly both righteous and evil. While the disappearance of the true god is advantageous to him, it has also attracted more unnecessary attention, threatening his life.]

The saying "fortune and misfortune are interdependent" was perfectly exemplified in this incident.

If it weren't for the Heavenly Dao 0.1 system always being by Li Wei's side, one might have thought that someone was secretly orchestrating Li Wei's destiny.

Otherwise, how could everything be such a coincidence?

The Heavenly Dao 0.91 System grew increasingly awestruck: "Destiny is intricately woven; it is indeed incredibly mysterious."

Anyway, we've finally gotten through this hurdle.

Over the next few days, as time went by, the joint investigation by the Ministry of Lightning and the Ministry of Finance began!

Lei Bu pointed the finger at Cai Bu regarding the Ziwei Enclosure and Tianshi Enclosure incidents, believing that Qingxiao Zhenjun's affairs were inextricably linked to the God of Wealth.

The Gods of Wealth, not to be outdone, argued that Qingxiao Zhenjun might not have disappeared at all, but had simply hidden himself away to give the Thunder Department an excuse to further intervene in the Department of Wealth.

The investigative power granted to them by the Heavenly Emperor has been completely turned into a tool in the political struggle between the two sides.

As a result, every day a large amount of evidence of the gods' crimes was exposed. Many gods were either stripped of their divine positions and reduced to mortals, or were directly ordered to be killed by the Heavenly Emperor. For a time, everyone in the Heavenly Court lived in fear.

No one bothered Li Wei anymore.

The Supreme Emperor had visited several times, but the situation in the Heavenly Court was changing rapidly, and everyone was desperately trying to seize the vacant divine positions and powers. Therefore, He had no time to spare. He only sent a few greetings from afar to confirm that Li Wei's will had not completely collapsed, and then stopped paying attention to the matter.

that's it,
A month later.

Li Wei's will gradually broke free from the torment of the curse, he rebuilt his rationality, and regained some of his willpower.

"Am I still alive?"

The doctor on duty today was a woman. After hearing the sound, she quickly came over and used a row of instruments to check his vital signs. After confirming that he was alright, she breathed a sigh of relief!
"That's wonderful, Lord Li! You've finally woken up!"

Unexpectedly, Inspector Li was able to withstand such a terrifying curse. Is this the true value of the title "The Most Ruthless Person in Foundation Establishment"?

However, it is said that this curse cannot be eradicated and will remain in his soul forever.

To walk with such pain forever in the future, even living would probably be worse than death, right?

The female doctor gave Li Wei a sympathetic look, then quickly went out to inform her superiors.

Sitting on the hospital bed, Li Wei silently wondered to himself, 'System? Are you still there?'

(*￣︶￣)！

[Congratulations to the owner for successfully escaping this calamity and achieving perfect invulnerability through loans!]

Upon hearing this, Li Wei's heart stirred, and he subconsciously unleashed a wisp of lightning immortal technique, which, with the support of his four lightning laws, pierced towards his own body.

As a result, a dazzling, almost black, inscription emerged from beneath his flesh, shattering the lightning without even a hair falling! [Master, with your current defensive strength, let alone a Nascent Soul cultivator, I estimate even a True God's full-force attack might not be able to kill you!]

In terms of defense alone, you have already reached the pinnacle of the mortal realm, truly possessing an aura of invincibility in the human world!

Li Wei finally felt relieved, knowing that he was truly safe.

So he instinctively covered his mouth with both hands, but he couldn't stop the laughter from coming out. He laughed louder and louder until he finally couldn't help but burst into wild laughter.

When Meng Shifei entered the room, he saw Li Wei smiling.

But He didn't disturb them. Instead, He entered silently and stood by for a long time, watching until Li Wei was almost too tired to continue laughing, before suddenly speaking:

[What good thing happened to Inspector Li? Why is he so happy?]

Li Wei was startled and turned to meet Meng Shifei's sinister eyes, which were like those of a venomous snake.

As their eyes met,
Li Wei forced himself to remain calm and laughed, "Isn't it something to be happy about surviving a near-death experience?"

[Of course, one should be happy to be alive, but why does Inspector Li look like an old farmer in the fields, his face full of the joy of a bountiful harvest?]

Did they figure it out?

This is not surprising, after all, Li Wei is still a human being. After narrowly escaping death, he naturally couldn't perfectly control his emotions, which is why Meng Shifei was able to spot a flaw.

As expected of a god, their senses are truly sharp!

However, Li Wei has a way to deal with it!
He had a thought in his mind.

A crisp sound of copper coins rubbing together emerged from the fingertips, forming a series of coin-shaped iron locks in mid-air, wriggling around like snakes.

"Meng Zhenjun has a good eye. I have indeed gained something from my near-death experience this time."

Upon seeing this, Meng Shifei's eyes narrowed, and he said with a hint of jealousy, "[The Sixteenth Law of the Primordial Dao—Money Locks Life? Inspector Li, you've really struck gold this time!]"

He has always wanted this law too!

When cultivators ascend to godhood, they often use a particular law from a certain Great Dao as their foundation. After becoming a god, they still need to acquire other laws to continuously improve their own Great Dao in order to advance further.

However, the great path is profound and far-reaching.
For example, Meng Shifei's "Yuandao" has a total of 49 different branches of laws. Even a god would find it impossible to master them all in a short period of time!
So the choice has appeared!
当你拥有了法则1后，你必须要在法则2、3、4、5、6、7、8到法则49中，选择一条来优先进行融合。

Different laws combined will produce different effects and possess different powers; some laws within a single path may even be directly opposed.

Therefore, if you align with the correct laws, your cultivation speed will greatly increase and your prospects will be broad. However, if you align with the wrong laws, you may not only suffer serious injuries, but you may also lose the possibility of further advancing in the Dao!

In the long process of exploration.

The gods summarized the methods of combining and advancing the laws, discarding the dross and keeping the essence, thus forming various "pathways of harmony"!
For example, Meng Shifei ascended to heaven using the fourteenth principle of the Yuan Dao Law, the Law of Attracting Benefits and Taking Advantage of Good Fortune.

If this law is combined with the Money-Locking-Life Law and the Law of Borrowing Effect to Repay Cause, it can follow the path of the Guardian God of Wealth, granting the deity the power to control the [Heaven and Earth Treasury System]!

Similarly, the principle of attracting profit and good fortune, when combined with the principle of leverage and the principle of favorable timing and location, will form a "loan within a loan" route, granting the deity the ability to control the [Loan System].

Different combinations of laws and different orders of accord with the Dao will affect the power of the gods.

Of course,
If you can fully comprehend all 49 laws of the "Primordial Dao," then you can freely integrate into all economic and financial law systems in the world, and control all the laws of the Primordial Dao at will, making the world's economy and finance change according to your wishes.

But that's a realm that only those who have reached the Void Return stage, Bodhisattvas, and Golden Immortals can attain.

A newly ascended god is already quite fortunate if he can successfully navigate a righteous path and master a system of laws!
Meng chose the [Treasury Defense] route!
Previously, with the help of the Supreme Emperor, He had already obtained the Law of Borrowing Effect to Repay Cause, so now He only lacks the Law of Money to Take Life, and can then begin to merge with the Dao and launch an attack on the Earth Immortal realm.

So when Meng Shifei saw that the law he had been longing for had actually appeared on Li Wei, he couldn't help but curse the lucky guy in his heart.

The Law of Money Locking Life is the foundation of the Wealth Prison. Li Wei's emergence from the Wealth Prison this time should have triggered this law to enter his body!

[Later, with the infusion of my divine power and the rescue of other true gods, this law remained within his body and merged into his cultivation!]

This is truly a blessing in disguise!

Thinking of this, Meng Shifei couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

But He couldn't have imagined that...

This money-locking life law is merely the most insignificant part of Li Wei's spoils this time.

Whether it's the five trillion loan Li Wei obtained, his upgrade of his loan-granting body, or the acquisition of a pantheon of the Life-Cleansing Orthodox Church, the value of these things far exceeds that of a simple law!

Li Wei shook his head, clearing his mind of the thoughts, and suddenly said, "Lord Meng's visit this time must be more than just to see me, right? Has His Majesty made some arrangements?"

Meng Shifei nodded and said, "That's right! I've come today to announce His Majesty's appointment of you!"
