Chapter 1050 - 651: Chess Player, Three Innate Daoist Monarchs

Chapter 1050: Chapter 651: Chess Player, Three Innate Daoist Monarchs

The heat from above seemed to have no connection to this place.

Here also gathered many dignitaries of the Nanliang Dynasty. The surrounding common people were a bit redder than those in other regions. However, with the ongoing drought, more and more refugees were traveling along the river upwards, flooding into the vicinity of the Fenghuo Dynasty, adding a touch of chaos to this bustling royal city.

Deep within Fenghuo Royal City, there was another magnificent temple called the Three Ancestors Platform, dedicated to the Source of All Laws in the Immortal Court Celestial Realm—the Three Ancestors of the Immortal Court.

Namely, Daoist Monarch Long Yin, Daoist Monarch Tianhe, Daoist Monarch Ziyun.

This Three Ancestors Temple has always been favored by the dignitaries of various dynasties, its incense burning vigorously.

But in recent years, with the rise of another Great Teaching in the Immortal Court Celestial Realm, its prestige has gradually waned.

Though not to say the temple is deserted, the incense offerings are quite few.

In the expansive multiple courtyards, many Daoist children leaned on the gates, looking out, yet they saw little human traffic, within too was filled with a restless air.

On this day, however, a young noble dressed in a green robe entered through the main gate, instantly alerting the Observatory Master in the Three Ancestors Temple.

According to the standards of the Three Ancestors Temple, a mere noble from the royal city visiting would not warrant the personal greeting of the Observatory Master, but today the Three Ancestors Temple is different from the past, no longer able to afford to pick and choose.

Fortunately, that noble from the royal city was generous, donating hundreds of cloth and silk pieces, as well as a hundred golden leaves, making the Observatory Master so delighted that he even offered to personally accompany the rites, only to be refused by this noble.

This noble was conducting a blessing ritual, after which he stated he wished to privately pay respects to the Three Ancestors Daoist Monarchs.

Three Ancestors Hall.

At this moment, three grand Dharma Aspects of Daoist Monarchs stood solemnly on the altar, their Golden Bodies majestic and dignified.

A young man dressed in a green robe, charming and elegant, gazed at the three sacred Golden Bodies Dharma Aspects, a trace of sneer appearing in his eyes.

"I did not expect the esteemed Three Ancestors Dao Lineage to fall this far!"

Zhang Jian’s eyes flickered, pointing to the heavens and the earth, saying from ancient times there were three Innate-formed Daoist Monarchs. These three Daoist Monarchs are the oldest deities in heaven and earth, rumored to be connected with the Creator Monarch, born from the Creation Monarch’s demise and the Destiny.

They each represent the essence, energy, and spirit of the Creator Divine Monarch.

Namely, Daoist Monarch Long Yin who represents Essence, Daoist Monarch Tianhe who represents Primordial Qi, and Daoist Monarch Ziyun who represents Divine Essence.

Zhang Jian’s face remained calm, for a hundred years he walked through the Immortal Court Celestial Realm, and through his own means, he had acquired many secrets.

These three Daoist Monarchs were high above since the beginning of ancient times, each established their Dao Lineage, dividing the great destiny of heaven and earth.

However, the three Daoist Monarchs, despite presiding over Great Teachings, could not unite unanimously, instead possessing considerable discord among themselves. Amidst these turbulent times, an Emperor rose along with a God and a Demon.

The Celestial Emperor is the Ziyuan Emperor.

This Emperor held a prestigious status during the Innate Era, second only to the Three Daoist Monarchs, known for chivalry, eventually emerging as a victor in the struggle among gods, respected by all gods as the Celestial Emperor, thus ending the gods’ contention.

And was accepted by the three Daoist Monarchs.

Secondly, there’s Tai Chi Ancestor God and No-Tribulation Demon God, two Ancestral Gods.

Tai Chi Ancestor God attained Dao from the Innate Five Great Qi, held in high esteem, enlightened countless Immortal Gods, thus a Divine Ancestor.

For tens of thousands of years, gradually replaced the Three Ancestors Dao Lineage, gained the reputation of Daoist Ancestor.

That’s ironically overshadowing the Three Great Daoist Monarchs of the Beginning.

The other, the No-Tribulation Demon God, born with countless hardships of heaven and earth, unleashed tribulations upon the world, as the Primordial Demon Monarch of the Immortal Court Celestial Realm.

As thoughts flashed through his head, he waved, obscuring the incense fire divine thought of the two Golden Body Dharma Aspects, then shouted.

"Fellow Daoist Tianhe, still unwilling to show yourself?"

With his words, the Qi Yuan Ancestor God in the center, Daoist Monarch Tianhe’s Golden Body Dharma Aspect suddenly emitted intense, vast Divine Light.

Rumble!

Inside the Divine Light seemed to emerge the roar of endless torrents rushing.

Zhang Jian’s expression remained unchanged, this sound of the river wasn’t the roar of earthly water element, but the roar of the Primordial Qi Sea of the Immortal Court Celestial Realm. The Daoist Monarch Tianhe represents the will of endless Primordial Qi across the mountains and rivers, is the body of Primordial Qi of the Immortal Court Celestial Realm, the master of the Primordial Qi Sea, possessing immeasurable divine power.

Zhang Jian’s eyes showed a trace of coldness.

Despite the three Innate Daoist Monarchs possessing such great destiny, they were seized by others of the Immortal Court Celestial Realm, truly incapable, now trapped in anxiety, besieged by Infinite Calamity Fiend.

At this time, from the depths of the void, endless Primordial Qi Divine Light swept down, like thousands of sharp swords aimed at Zhang Jian, a cold voice echoed from within.

"An Outer Heaven Demon Monarch dares to appear in this dignified Dao field, aren’t you afraid of falling here?"

"I wonder if Fellow Daoist has ever seen the world outside?"

Zhang Jian glanced at the majestic Primordial Qi Immortal Light surrounding him, did not actively use magic to resist, only calmly watched the figure of Daoist Monarch Tianhe manifesting above the Golden Body Dharma Aspect.

Before Daoist Monarch Tianhe could question, Zhang Jian laughed to himself.

"I assume as one of the Three Great Creation Daoist Monarchs, Daoist Monarch Tianhe should be knowledgeable. Your Immortal Court Celestial Realm has been seized of the Celestial Dao Origin, Heaven and Earth Creation. The Celestial Dao Origin of this world is withering, the collapse of the Celestial Realm is imminent, and at this moment someone vows a great oath, a grand wish, willing to redeem this world, is this the act of a Demon God or the Heavenly Right Path?"

Daoist Monarch Tianhe glanced at Zhang Jian, saying indifferently.

"This doesn’t change the fact that you are an ’invader’!"

Zhang Jian shook his head.

"What constitutes an invader is one who comes with aggressive and destructive intent to harm the welfare of all beings in the Immortal Court Celestial Realm, that is an invader. But I have come to redeem this land and all living beings, can Fellow Daoist ensure the redemption of this impending downfall, sinking world?"

Zhang Jian looked at Daoist Monarch Tianhe with solemnity.

"It’s said the Three Innate Daoist Monarchs were born from the legacy of the Creator Monarch. Do the Three Daoist Monarchs only think of their self-interest, never considering the billions of living beings in the Immortal Court Celestial Realm and this boundless world?"

Daoist Monarch Tianhe heard this, his expression slightly changed, he glanced at Zhang Jian, the flowing Primordial Qi Immortal Light around him gradually retracted back into his body.

The current plight of the Immortal Court Celestial Realm was naturally clear to him.

The Infinite Calamity Fiend Qi boiling, signs of the end of the world appearing in the heavens with the collapse of the Celestial Dao, everything in destruction.

The six Daoist Monarchs are now deeply mired, currently enduring the backlash of the Celestial Dao of the Immortal Court Celestial Realm, their True Bodies unable to move.

Otherwise, when the Outer Realm Daoist Monarch entered the Immortal Court Celestial Realm, he would have been besieged by all, rather than just Ziyuan Emperor manifesting.

Despite their discord with Ziyuan Emperor now.

"What does Fellow Daoist intend to do?"

Daoist Monarch Tianhe now looked at the Qinglian Suffering Relief Celestial Venerable in front of him, his eyes showing a scrutinizing gaze.

Zhang Jian responded indifferently.

"Why such an expression, whatever my intent, it’s first to redeem this world, until after the immeasurable tribulation, then speak of other matters!"

He paused slightly, looking at the three Daoist Monarchs with calmness.

"For the three Fellow Daoists, the worst case is merely another chess player among the world, much better than now!"

Daoist Monarch Tianhe glanced at Zhang Jian, speaking coldly.

"I fear what Fellow Daoist desires isn’t less than Zi Yuan!"

Zhang Jian laughed aloud.

"This point I do not deny, but do the three Fellow Daoists desire less? Actually, this god and the three Fellow Daoists have the same goal!"

Daoist Tianhe deeply looked at Zhang Jian, this time did not refute, only looked coldly at Zhang Jian, his figure suddenly returned into the Golden Body Dharma Aspect, abruptly vanishing from the Three Ancestors Hall.

Zhang Jian wasn’t bothered by this, when entering the Three Ancestors Temple, he hadn’t expected to directly persuade the three Daoist Monarchs.

But even if he could influence them a bit, it would be beneficial to his upcoming salvation plan.

It seems his words had some effect after all.

Though Daoist Monarch Tianhe did not express it directly, at least he wasn’t as intensely rejecting him as before.

Zhang Jian then stepped out of the Three Ancestors Temple.

In the void, he looked down at the Fenghuo Royal City with a cold expression.

Next, he must quickly accumulate the position of Qinglian Suffering Relief Celestial Venerable, truly gaining the support of billions of beings, at that time holding the power of salvation to perfect the position, whether it is Zi Yuan Emperor or any other entity, naturally will no longer be a problem.
