Chapter 16 Would you believe me if I said this was a misunderstanding?
Chapter 16 Would you believe me if I said this was a misunderstanding?
The sharp pain in my ear, coupled with the anger of being woken up in the middle of the night.
The pig demon was immediately enraged.
He clenched his fist and punched Haotian in the abdomen.
"Bang"!
After a loud bang, the scene the pig demon had anticipated—the cultivator being sent flying—did not occur.
Realizing something was wrong, the pig demon looked up at Haotian, who was still pulling on its ear.
Looking up, he saw a faint smile on Haotian's face.
Seeing the pig demon look up at him, Haotian said calmly, "Continue!"
"Push harder!"
Upon hearing Haotian's words, the pig demon's face immediately turned red with anger.
humiliation!
Naked humiliation!
Since birth, what kind of "storms" hasn't Pig Master seen?
He even nearly lost his life to a tiger.
Now they've been humiliated by some nobody, some random cultivator.
This is intolerable!
Kill him!
This bastard must be killed!
Even a pig has its pride!
Enraged, the pig demon channeled all its magical power into its fist.
He then punched Haotian.
"Bang".
After another loud bang, the pig demon's expression finally changed.
His face, which had been flushed with anger, was now deathly pale.
The pig demon finally realized that the cultivator before him was far more powerful than himself.
Don't ask how I realized it.
He just stood there and let them hit him, and he couldn't even break through their defenses.
Isn't that obvious enough?
Fear finally surged into my heart at this moment.
After swallowing hard, the pig demon managed to force a smile.
He said awkwardly, "Immortal!"
I...I said it was a misunderstanding.
Do you believe it?
Upon hearing this, Haotian replied with a smile, "Do you think I believe you or not?"
After saying that, Haotian released the pig demon's ears.
He then continued, "What is your name...?"
never mind!
It doesn't matter who your surname and given name are.
You have two choices: live or die.
What's your choice?
Hearing Haotian's words, the pig demon asked nervously, "What are the conditions for this path to survival?"
Upon hearing this, Haotian frowned and said, "Asking so many questions, it seems you're looking for a way to die."
Fine!
"I'll grant your wish!"
As he spoke, Haotian raised his hand, as if to kill the pig demon with his palm.
Upon seeing this, the pig demon hurriedly said, "Immortal, please wait!"
The little demon won't ask anymore!
I choose the path of survival!
Choose a way to survive!
Seeing the pig demon's reply, Haotian finally lowered his hand.
He said in a deep voice, "Since you have chosen the path of survival, then do as I command."
I bestow upon you the name Gao Zhen!
"Send a wisp of your primordial spirit to me, and I will bestow upon you your title!"
As Haotian finished speaking, he presented the Investiture of the Gods.
Fill in the name "Gao Zhen" on the list.
The pig demon was still somewhat confused about the situation.
Yet it still obediently separated a wisp of its primordial spirit.
Resistance is no longer an option.
Disobeying will result in death.
Even if you ask another question, this guy won't bother to answer.
If they resist, wouldn't they just be wiped out?
It's just that Pig Lord is not as strong as this guy, otherwise he would definitely let this fellow know how powerful Pig Lord is.
After Haotian cast Gao Zhen's wisp of primordial spirit into the Investiture of the Gods, he loudly proclaimed, "In the name of the Heavenly Emperor, I hereby confer upon Gao Zhen the title of Fire Pig!"
The Fire God, a deity of the Twenty-Eight Constellations.
At this point, Gao Zhen also understood.
I've been drafted into the army.
But what good is understanding?
Life and death are in the hands of others; the only thing you can do is obey.
The legend has spread far and wide; this old man before us is someone who dares to stand up to even a saint.
never mind!
It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death!
While pondering these thoughts, Gao Zhen did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
He immediately bowed and said, "Your subject obeys the imperial decree!"
Seeing this, Haotian raised his hand in a gesture.
Get up!
Now that you have been granted the title, go to the Heavenly Court to perform your divine duties.
After arriving at the Heavenly Court, first go to the South Heavenly Gate to find Zhu Zhao.
He will guide you to transform this demonic aura into celestial energy.
"yes!"
After saying that, Gao Zhen headed straight for the South Heavenly Gate.
After a moment of contemplation, Haotian flashed out of the cave and began to exorcise the souls of the dead.
This time, Haotian increased the power level by 1,000.
This is twice as many as the previous two times.
The effect was naturally twice as good as the previous two times.
Its coverage area has reached tens of millions of miles.
He sat cross-legged atop the mountain.
Haotian slightly opened his mouth and slowly uttered the "Scripture of Salvation for the Dead".
"At that time..."
After several repetitions, all the departed souls regained their senses.
Next is the Rebirth Mantra.
Several times again.
Haotian slightly raised his hand, and the gates of the underworld opened.
The group of souls kowtowed three times to Haotian before entering the gate in an orderly fashion.
After the group of souls departed, Haotian did not leave immediately.
Instead, he channeled his magical power and recited the newly derived "Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra".
"Heaven and earth, in their natural order, disperse all impurities..."
As the Haotian incantation was recited, the surrounding yin and foul air were like ice meeting the blazing sun.
The yin energy and foul air in this place will not simply dissipate.
Instead, Haotian used the power of divine incantations to mobilize the righteous energy of heaven and earth to eliminate it.
A short while later.
With the surrounding yin and foul air dissipated, Haotian continued his journey northward.
At this very moment, the Goddess Pingxin in the underworld finally completed the construction of the underworld.
In an instant.
Several immense merits descended from the sky.
A slightly smaller amount of merit fell directly upon Haotian, who was on his way.
The remaining merits, however, go to the underworld.
Seeing that he had gained merit again, Haotian was slightly taken aback.
The merit from the act of liberating the departed souls had already been accumulated earlier.
Now it's happening again, what's going on this time?
With a slight thought, Haotian immediately understood.
This is the underworld that Pingxin has already set up.
From then on, the operation of the underworld was on the right track.
The establishment of order in the underworld is naturally a contribution to the primordial world, so it is normal for merit to be bestowed upon it.
However, Haotian thought it was normal and calmly put away his merits.
The six sages of the primordial world were somewhat unsettled.
Previously, the six sages gathered in the Heavenly Court to pressure Haotian, which had already offended him.
Now, the Heavenly Emperor's merits are endless, yet these saints have gained nothing.
Doesn't this mean that the sages' contributions to the primordial world are inferior to those of the Jade Emperor?
That's all there is to it.
It's just a matter of getting past the dough.
As long as the Six Saints pretend not to know, who would dare to bring it up to their face?
The key issue is that Haotian's merits are constantly increasing.
The power these saints have over Haotian will only weaken over time.
Those who accumulate great merit are always favored by the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial World.
Given Haotian's attitude towards them, if another conflict were to arise in the future, they would probably have to consider the consequences themselves before even the Dao Ancestor intervenes.
With great merit as their reliance, Haotian will only become more and more presumptuous in front of them in the future.
If this continues, what authority will these saints have left?
Especially the Primordial Celestial Venerable on Mount Kunlun.
At that moment, I felt a surge of unease and confusion.
He merely allowed his disciple to test Haotian.
Unexpectedly, this kick landed on a supreme innate treasure.
This directly offended the Heavenly Emperor, Haotian.
It's still unknown where Haotian will start in making things difficult for his disciples.
Given Haotian's status, if he really wanted to make things difficult for the Chan Sect...
While Yuanshi Tianzun was not afraid, he still faced many troubles.
Especially as Haotian's trump cards become increasingly abundant.
