I was the Heavenly Emperor in ancient times

Chapter 79 Black Rainbow Piercing the Sun
As for Japan...

The people sent from the Dongguo "Gate" base came because they discovered a problem and came to explore the source of it.

Meanwhile, the Changsheng Temple also sent people over, but their purpose was different; they were directly targeting Li Jun, and the person they sent was Han Daoren.

One is to investigate the background of the fake Li Jun, and the other is to find the secret of the real Li Jun.

this day.

The long-neglected Taoist Han ascended the hall of the Longevity Temple and stood before the new abbot, Zhang You.

Han Daoren bowed deeply on the prayer mat, saying, "Greetings, Immortal Venerable of Longevity."

Zhang You looked at him and told him to get up: "I have something I need you to do."

The Double-Pupil Immortal asked Zhang You to explore Li Jun's secrets. After hearing the name Di Jun, Zhang You wisely chose to subcontract the task.

The mission must be completed, no matter how many people die or what price is paid, but there's no need to personally go on such a dangerous mission.

Among the disciples of Changsheng Temple, Han Daoren was a very special figure.

He really enjoys challenging tasks.

They like to do outrageous things.

In the eyes of the Longevity Temple, even if he was an extraordinary being, Han Daoren was a madman.

In some ways, he is very similar to the previous abbot, Zhou Shentong, but this is where the current abbot becomes out of place.

Han Daoren bowed again: "Please, Immortal Venerable, issue a decree."

Zhang You nodded: "Li Jun's appearance in Japan must be part of some scheme. I need to go to your place to find out the secrets behind Li Jun."

"He revealed quite a few secrets this time, and perhaps we can find the truth about him from these secrets."

Zhang You raised his head, his gaze intense.

"For example, which ancient being was he reincarnated from?"

Han Daoren pointed to himself: "Me?

Zhang You said, "Don't you like challenging tasks? How about this task? It's challenging enough!"

"You always say that I don't trust you, and that the previous abbot was like this or that."

"Look, I've entrusted you with such an important task..."

Han Daoren didn't hear what was said after that, because he felt like his head had been hit a bell a dozen times in a row, making it buzz.

Thus, Han Daoren arrived in the Land of the Rising Sun.

Japan, the land of the rising sun.

seaside.

This is the first place the sun shines on when it rises in the east.

The gods arrived here, and with just a wave of their hands, the giant trees and plants began to grow overnight, eventually forming a palace complex.

Countless believers spontaneously came here and crowded around the palace complex.

Among them were many who had died and been resurrected, who were even more witnesses to the power of the gods.

All the people gathered here so that the god could appear before them every day from the palace.

They lay prostrate below at dawn, their cries filling the air.

"Lord God!"

"God..."

When Master Han arrived, he happened to witness this scene.

Looking at the dense crowd of worshippers, Master Han seemed quite satisfied and spoke to the disciples of the Longevity Temple behind him.

"This is the demeanor of a deity!"

"Without thousands of people burning incense and worshipping, who in this world knows the nobility of gods and immortals?"

Those behind him whispered, "That's just like what the previous abbot said."

Another person said, "Master Han is a staunch supporter from the previous generation."

Every day at noon and midnight, "Li Jun" and his protectors would appear.

At noon, "Li Jun" will select one person from the crowd and grant them extraordinary powers.

At midnight, "Li Jun's" protector will appear to perform rituals to help the souls of the dead find peace and bring them back to life.

That's why so many people come here.

Noon is one of the few opportunities to see and interact with Li Jun directly.

Although Master Han came, he wasn't under much pressure after figuring things out.

"Anyway, I was asked to investigate Li Jun, not to kill him."

"By the time."

"Once I've done my research, I'll go back and report. I'll just pick a name from some ancient mythology and say that Li Jun is the reincarnation of the other person."

"Since his name contains the character 'Li,' let's say he's Li Jing!"

"Li Jun, Li Jing, they sound pretty much the same."

Han Daoren and a few others found a place to sit down among the believers, their minds completely focused on how to deceive them.

He enjoys challenges, but he's not stupid.

At this moment, a disciple from Changsheng Temple asked, "I am a junior. Senior Brother Han arrived early and I heard that he has met Li Jun. Can you tell us about it?"

Han Daoren looked at the two of them and waved his hand.

"He's just a defeated opponent, what's there to say?"

These people had only recently joined, and their eyes lit up even more when they heard that the opponent was a defeated foe.

"Senior Brother Han has even fought against Li Jun?"

Han Daoren appeared indifferent, but a smug smile played on his lips.

"I am one of the few people who have survived three times at Li Jun's hands."

Others exclaimed, "Three times?"

Master Han immediately frowned: "What's all the excitement about? Keep your voices down. We're here on a mission."

The disciples were thrilled, their eyes even filled with admiration: "Senior brother, please tell us, please tell us!"

Master Han waved his hand again: "There's nothing to talk about, nothing to boast about, just ordinary things."

Then, Master Han began to recount his ordinary life.

Believe it or not, he actually escaped death three times from Li Jun's hands.

But he was a defeated opponent.

That's not true.

The first time, Li Jun summoned the golden peach tree in front of the gate of the underworld. He was there at the time and was so frightened that he ran away with his head in his hands and was almost crushed by the golden light.

The second time, in front of the Ghost Gate of Dushuo, Li Jun made a move and forced Zhang You into a deadly situation. Han Daoren saw Zhang You's ugly behavior clearly and survived the subsequent tide of ghosts.

The third time, Li Jun transformed the world beneath the Yujiang altar, summoning the Peach Blossom Forest and part of Taoshan Island, directly sending Han Daoren to the Northern Sea. He swam for a long time before finally reaching the Dushuo Ghost Gate.

But when it came to Master Han...

He wouldn't say it so truthfully, but only that he participated in the attack on Li Jun in the crowd and was one of the few who survived to the end in the so-called "battle of immortals and gods".

All of a sudden.

He became someone who dared to draw his sword against immortals and gods, and every time he appeared, it wasn't just in ordinary scenes, but in truly grand battles known throughout the world.

The others had heard of it, but had never seen or participated in it, yet they longed to experience it.

Everyone knew it was dangerous; they knew it was a clash of ultimate power.

But the more this is the case, the more...

Being able to participate in such a great war and survive it makes one feel as if they have become a part of history and mythology.

At that moment, Han Daoren became a living legend in their eyes.

Especially since these were clearly boasts, Han Daoren spoke them with such calm and collected demeanor that they seemed even more authentic.

Furthermore, the inclusion of stories about conflicts between Han Daoren, Lu Gang, Zhao Nange, and Zheng Shiliang further enhances its credibility.

at this time.

One of the disciples of the Changsheng Temple, who was observing from the outside, suddenly rushed back from a distance and approached Han Daoren.

"Senior brother, we just happened to spot someone."

Master Han asked, "Who?"

The other person said, "Zhao Nange!"

Master Han pressed further, "You haven't admitted your mistake?"

The other person said, "I've seen her. I'm absolutely certain of her figure and demeanor. That woman is more ruthless and mad than any man. She can make you feel cold even from dozens of meters away."

Master Han immediately frowned: "Lu Gang has most likely come over as well."

Finally, Master Han said.

"Don't disturb them. We're not here to have a conflict with them."

The other person was clearly not one of the newcomers beside him; they knew Han Daoren well and were surprised to hear him say that.

In the past, Han Daoren was always looking for trouble, going wherever there was danger.

But thinking about it, it makes sense, since "Li Jun" is right there.

"So even Daoist Han is afraid!"

After thinking it through, the man nodded.

"I see."

Then left.

However, while talking to the other party, Han Daoren noticed something strange.

The place where he was sitting was a corner.

He chose this spot specifically, as it was surrounded by their people.

But at some point, someone appeared behind him; it wasn't one of their people.

Han Daoren was the leader of the group. He recognized all of them and was very certain of it.

The person was looking down at their phone.

Han Daoren: "Who told you to..."

Master Han frowned, preparing to drive the other party away, but the other party raised his head.

In an instant, Master Han was drenched in sweat.

Sweat poured down his forehead like rain.

He turned his head stiffly, swallowed hard, and the sun grew stronger, his eyes so wet with sweat that he could barely open them.

The people nearby also noticed Han Daoren's unusual behavior and quickly asked him about it.

"Brother!"

"what happened?"

"Why are you sweating so much?"

"Get a bottle of water for my senior brother."

Han Daoren remained motionless, his eyes staring blankly ahead, only his lips trembling slightly as he made a sound.

However, given his expression and gestures, it always felt like the voice was coming from his stomach.

"Do not talk!"

"Don't say a word."

Although the others found it strange, they had no choice but to obey Han Daoren's orders.

The man was sitting right behind him.

He didn't know when the other person had sat down behind him; perhaps he had been sitting there while the other person was telling his "legendary" story!

The thought of this made Han Daoren's intestines tremble with fear, as if he wanted to shake the things inside out.

He had already recognized who it was; after all, he was someone who had survived three "battles" with the other party.

"Li Jun with double pupils!"

Even though the other person looked like a junior high school student, Han Daoren recognized him at a glance.

Sweating profusely.

Han Daoren unconsciously stood up, his eyes fixed straight ahead, not daring to look to the side at all.

I dared not look back, and wanted to treat the shadow I had just seen as an illusion, even if it was just self-deception.

He walked forward, trying to get as far away from the other person as possible.

He doesn't understand.

Why was Li Jun behind him?

Wasn't he in those high-altitude palaces and temples? Did he come down specifically just to hear what others were saying about him?
As soon as Han Daoren thought about it, he remembered that the other party might have heard everything he had just said.

So it seems he might not survive a fourth time.

"Senior brother?"

"What’s wrong with you."

Why did you suddenly stand up?

Han Daoren stood up and walked forward. The others were even more puzzled, but they immediately stood up and followed him.

But Han Daoren hadn't gone far when there was another commotion ahead.

"My Lord God!" "The God has appeared."

"The divine Li Jun!"

A thunderous roar arose, and everyone looked ahead, a certain emotion igniting in their hearts like a flame.

Han Daoren raised his head.

Then they saw a figure slowly emerge from the high hall, receiving the worship of everyone.

Another Li Jun appeared.

Han Daoren was stunned, not understanding how Li Jun had suddenly reappeared above.

He immediately turned around and saw that Li Jun was still there behind him, and had even stood up and was walking towards him.

"what!"

"Ah...ah..."

Han Daoren was so frightened that he trembled uncontrollably and immediately knelt down on the ground.

That's right.

He narrowly escaped death from Li Jun's clutches three times, a story that sounds epic and legendary.

However, these three times made him realize the gap between himself and Li Jun, and also shattered his courage to face Li Jun.

If he at least dared to look Li Jun in the eye the first time, then the third time, when he was swept away by the Northern Dark Water, he lost even the courage to look up at the other person.
-
Li Jun became the focus of everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.

It was as if a god had descended.

One after another, extraordinary beings with unusual shapes appeared: a giant dog god, a winged crow-man, a snake-like beautiful woman, and a demon engulfed in flames.

Then, they all knelt down before him.

Numerous cameras were pointed at him; the whole world was watching him, like a massive show.

And this is what the other party wants; they want to influence the whole world through this method.

"Gods, I have seen God!"

"God, I have come to worship you, please protect me."

"Kill the God of Zhulong and save the world, and save me too!"

"God Li Jun, take me with you to that world, let's leave this ugly mortal world and go to the real fairyland and heaven."

I don't know how many people came because of Li Jun.

They cried out as loudly as they could, hoping that the gods high above would see them and that they would be chosen today.

The crowd included not only Japanese people, but also people from the West and a large number of people from the East.

These people from all over the world have gathered here, each with their own purpose.

But whatever their reason for coming, after seeing the deity "Li Jun," they all seemed to lose themselves, each one immersed in a fervent wave of worship.

"God..."

"god……"

They screamed and roared, their eyes filled with tears, and their bodies trembled.

Immediately afterwards, everyone knelt on the ground, and the crowd surged towards the deity "Li Jun" like waves.

But the other side remained as immovable as a mountain.

The Taoist Han had already knelt on the ground, sweat dripping from his eyes, just like those who were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears. However, unlike the others, he was frightened.

On the other side, Lu Gang and his group also saw the deity "Li Jun". In order to make themselves inconspicuous, they also lay down on the ground and blended into the crowd. They did not want "Li Jun" on the high place to notice them.

but.

Among the crowd, there was one figure standing out, especially in the shot.

Because everyone else was kneeling, no one noticed at first.

However, viewers in front of the TV noticed it first, and comments and bullet screen messages kept appearing.

"Are these people crazy?"

"The atmosphere is so intense! But if I were there, it would probably be just like that!"

"Who will become a superhuman today, and what kind of power will they possess?"

“Yesterday an African became a superhuman, which was really unexpected. It feels a bit like the Tufu in the mythology of the Rising Sun Kingdom. Could it really be like the legend? Could it be that Li Jun with double pupils is really making his own ‘toys’ and amusement park based on the mythology of the Rising Sun Kingdom in a really sadistic way?”

"If I could really become a superhuman, I'd even be willing to be your toy!"

"It's really pathetic. So many people are lying here, but most of them can't even get a toy!"

In the beginning, it was all about commenting on the scene and guessing who would be the next extraordinary person. This became a regular program for countless people, much like watching the lottery draw, but with the added benefit of seeing who the winner was live.

Then, all eyes in the world finally turned to the person standing there.

"See that? There's still someone standing there."

What is this person doing?

"Is the performance unconventional?"

"I doubt anyone would actually dare to go and rebel against Li Jun!"

"No way!"

"Li Jun could kill him with just one look, right?"

"Is he here to protest? To be honest, he's quite courageous."

"Go forth, warriors!"

"No way, what's wrong with this guy? Is he really going to commit suicide?!"

"He looks young, probably still in middle or high school. Kneel down, you'll really die!"

"..."

Followed by.

Those kneeling people naturally noticed the standing figure, and they all stood up, questioning and accusing the person from a distance.

Many people roared in anger, both men and women, who did not seem to be from the same social class or profession, yet they were doing the same thing at that moment.

These people have been completely controlled by the deity "Li Jun," their minds and bodies have been taken over by him.

"what are you doing?"

"Why not refuse to worship the gods?"

"What do you want to do by coming here?"

Many more people rushed towards this location, and it seemed that conflict was imminent.

Han Daoren knelt on the ground, muttering incessantly.

"Two Li Juns?"

"How can there be two?"

Where did these two come from?

Meanwhile, Lu Gang and his group, who had come to investigate, also noticed it. Although they were far away and couldn't see the other person's face clearly, Lu Gang recognized the figure at a glance.

"Li Jun is here!"

"Is it really that simple? We're just starting right away?"

"Is he really that confident?"

At this moment, "Li Jun," who had just come out of the main hall, also looked over and noticed the figure standing below.

He said this in front of countless people.

"You came!"

A commotion erupted below as everyone stared at the figure. Thousands of kneeling heads turned back to look behind them, all in perfect unison.

The person looked very young, at most a high school student, just a child to the locals.

"Does God know him?"

"Could it be some very famous person?"

"Is he someone on the extraordinary ranking list?"

"Could it be Zhang You himself who came? Only he could make Li Jun with double pupils treat him like this, but it doesn't seem like it."

"This is too young. Is there even someone like this on the extraordinary ranking list?"

"Why does he look somewhat like a deity?"

The figure below slowly walked forward.

He was wearing a tracksuit and carrying a bag that looked like it contained a baseball bat; he looked like an ordinary student.

He walked past Han Daoren, who trembled even more violently, but in the end Li Jun still walked past him without even glancing at him.

He, who was always proud, did not feel any shame. Instead, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

As the other party approached little by little, "Li Jun" on the high place also began to speak, and a smile appeared in his eyes as he looked down at Li Jun, as if he was very happy that Li Jun had come.

"did you see it?"

"What you should have, what you can enjoy."

"If you want to, you can easily do it."

The other party was like an extraterrestrial demon, tempting the other party.

You must be very tired!

"Why kill us? Zhulong did nothing wrong. It just wanted to open its eyes and reappear in this world. It's too pitiful to kill it like this."

"You do not want it?"

"Don't worry about those things, just indulge yourself."

“You were born on our side; you are one with us.”

It stretched out its hand.

An invitation was extended to Li Jun below.

"Come, I'll show you what the real you is like."

"You from ancient times."

"To become the highest heaven, the most dazzling sun, the supreme emperor!"

Its power gradually spread outwards, and its form began to become more and more perfect, exuding endless charm. Just one glance was enough to make people lose their souls.

It was as if a god had descended to earth.

That perfect posture seemed to fulfill everyone's fantasy, the immortal Li Jun of fantasy, the god Li Jun.

Li Jun stood on a high place, and when he looked down from the square below the steps, his position coincided with that of the midday sun.

Its power is like the blazing sun, its brilliance so intense that one cannot look directly at it.

Li Jun climbed step by step to the top, surrounded by mutated superhumans on both sides. They had remained motionless from beginning to end and were still kneeling on the ground.

Li Jun reached out and drew his sword from the long pouch on his back, right in front of the other party.

There was no attempt to conceal anything, and no hesitation whatsoever.

He raised his head and looked at that perfect version of himself.

The sword transformed into a black shadow and soared into the sky, heading towards the figure that overlapped with the sun.

A black rainbow pierced the sun.

Gods shed blood.

This was his answer.

In Li Jun's eyes, this was just an initial exchange.
However, in everyone's eyes.

He is killing immortals.

They killed God.

Those who witnessed this scene below felt dizzy and couldn't help but utter a unified sound that echoed through the sky.

"what!"

The sound was filled with horror; thousands of shrill screams tore at everyone's eardrums.

Lu Gang stood up and saw the same scene.

Li Jun transformed into a black beam of light, piercing through the dazzling sun.

As if to say.

Even if the opponent were truly that great sun, he would still cut down the sun in that sky.

This scene reminded him of many things, and he had witnessed it many times before.

No matter how powerful the enemy, the opponent is always fearless and undeterred.

But no matter how many times he saw it, the scene still shocked him so much that he broke out in a cold sweat, and filled him with endless longing and courage.

And below.

Hearing the scream, Han Daoren, who was kneeling, raised his head and saw the black rainbow piercing the sun.

He was also dizzy. As a superhuman, he should have a strong resistance to such strange allure, but at this moment, he, who considered himself a seeker of the Dao, seemed to be completely controlled by an invisible force.

He felt an intense and boundless adoration and longing, not for the "god Li Jun," but for the black sword that pierced through the sun.

He drew his sword and rose to his feet.

Slay gods and immortals, kill the most powerful enemies in the world, even another version of yourself.

Yuanlong Daoist probably didn't expect this either.

He had always longed to be noticed, but now he was being presented to the world in this way, in this image.
