Chapter 373: Chapter 299: A New Backdrop and Replacement_2

Wang Shu looked back deeply at Zhu Geliang, and although they had known each other for a hundred thousand years, she still often marveled at how nearly demonically clever he was.

If it weren’t for Zhu Geliang’s strategies from behind the scenes, she would not have easily reestablished her footing in the heavenly court and gained the trust of the Divine Emperor.

Of course, all of this traced back to that monkey.

...

A hundred years later, in the Divine Realm.

"Your Majesty the Divine Emperor, I have brought the No Heaven Divine King." General Bai Liang, clad in a black robe, brought No Heaven to the heavenly court, his face filled with joy as he made his salutations, for he had made a considerable contribution this time.

Once the Divine Realm conquered the Vast Wilderness, he would definitely receive a great reward, and perhaps even achieve the position of Divine King in one fell swoop!

"No Heaven pays respects to His Majesty the Divine Emperor." No Heaven also gave a salute, signaling his submission.

"Dispense with the formalities." The Divine Emperor’s deep gaze scrutinized No Heaven.

He found that although No Heaven possessed the strength of a Divine King, he was merely the most common level of Quasi-Saint-Daluo Golden Immortal, and moreover, with an unstable foundation, evidently due to the insufficient Primordial Source of the Vast Wilderness.

This deepened his understanding of the Vast Wilderness; it seemed that a great disturbance from a hundred thousand years ago had caused a significant problem there.

With this in mind, the Divine Emperor then said, "You know why I’ve summoned you today, speak up, what is the situation in the Vast Wilderness now?"

No Heaven solemnly reported, "Your Majesty, I sent people to infiltrate the Vast Wilderness, and they have now obtained clear information. The great disturbance of a hundred thousand years ago was due to the machinations of the Destiny Holy Emperor from the Heaven Realm, who wanted to replace the Heavenly Dao of the Vast Wilderness to take control of the entire world.

But in the end, he was slain by the contingency plan left by Pan Gu and the combined efforts of the other Saints of the Vast Wilderness..."

The Divine Emperor’s gaze sharpened, the Destiny Holy Emperor of the Heaven Realm?

He was an entity at the same realm as himself, and among the powerful beings from the Myriad Realms who had entered the Holy Spiritual Land to vie for fortune, the Destiny Holy Emperor was the strongest. Unexpectedly, he had fallen in the Vast Wilderness!

No Heaven continued, "After that great disturbance, the Vast Wilderness was severely damaged and became incredibly weak,

With Pan Gu completely dissipated and Dao Ancestor Hong Jun harboring evil intentions, he followed in the footsteps of the Destiny Holy Emperor, seeking to replace the will of the Vast Wilderness’s Heavenly Dao to take full control of the world.

The Saints of the Vast Wilderness disagreed and sought to join forces to kill Hong Jun, but they were ultimately defeated.

Among them, the Dao Sect and Buddha Sect were the most severely injured, with the leaders of both sects, the Tai Qing Saint and the Jieyin Saint, being seriously wounded by Hong Jun.

Now these two great sects are on the brink of collapse, barely surviving in the Vast Wilderness.

However, their combined forces also wounded Hong Jun, giving the creatures of the Vast Wilderness a chance to breathe."

After hearing all this, the Divine Emperor revealed a contemplative look, for he had already understood the basic situation of the Vast Wilderness through the Moonlight Divine King Wang Shu.

Apart from No Heaven, there were in total eight Saints in the Vast Wilderness: Dao Ancestor Hong Jun, Empress Wa, Lord Lu Ya, Tai Qing Laozi, Jieyin, Zhunti, Houtu, and Liu Xiu.

Among them, Tai Qing Laozi was the owner of the Dao of Artifacts’ Primordial Source, one of the Divine Realm’s primary targets.

The Divine Emperor further inquired, "So you’re saying the Vast Wilderness is currently in turmoil and all Saints and Divine Kings are injured?"

No Heaven replied, "Correct, internal strife is severe, all Saints bear injuries, and Nu Wa, whose injuries are relatively minor, has established a righteous alliance against the Dao Ancestor."

"Turmoil within the Vast Wilderness... Bai Liang, make a trip to the Vast Wilderness." The Divine Emperor pondered, not immediately believing No Heaven’s words.

"Yes!" Bai Liang immediately set off for the Vast Wilderness.

No Heaven’s defection naturally brought with it the exact location of the Vast Wilderness.

...

Inside the Vast Wilderness, once again, all the Saints and Quasi-Saints gathered at Buzhou Mountain.

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "No Heaven has sent news; the Divine Realm has already made contact with them. Moreover, Kong Ming has said that under his plans, Wang Shu has regained power in the heavenly court.

The real show is about to begin, everyone knows what to do, right?"

The crowd responded with complex expressions, some joyful, some anxious.

Lu Ya laughed, "I don’t know how you came up with it, this script is quite interesting."

At those words, several people immediately showed faces of silent grievance.

Interesting? How is it interesting? Let’s not speak carelessly.

But everyone murmured in their hearts and dared not say anything aloud, after all, the script was written by Ancestral Martial.

...

After a while, at the entrance to the Vast Wilderness, an old star lord holding a horsetail whisk yawned, "Why hasn’t that person from the heavenly court arrived yet!"

Just as Taibai Jinxing was getting utterly bored, a divine light darted towards the Vast Wilderness.

"Here it comes!" Taibai Venus instantly enlivened, his script was finally about to begin.

At this moment, Bai Liang, the Divine General, was also rushing to the Vast Wilderness Realm at the fastest speed, seeing this as a great opportunity to establish marvelous feats for the Divine Realm.

Soon, he found an old man at the entrance of the Vast Wilderness Realm who was just a Golden Immortal.

A thought struck Bai Liang, the Divine General, as this was a perfect chance to inquire about the situation in the Vast Wilderness Realm.

He did not take this old man seriously, regarding such a cultivator as no different from an ant.

Upon approaching, he asked, "Native, I ask you, did a great war take place in the Vast Wilderness Realm?"

While speaking, Bai Liang, the Divine General, even let out a bit of his imposing aura.

However, to his surprise, not only did the ant-like old man show no discomfort, but he even asked with a smile, "Are you the envoy from the Divine Realm?"

"Indeed, I..." Bai Liang, the Divine General, replied subconsciously but immediately sensed something amiss.

But Taibai Venus didn’t give him a chance to react, saying outright, "If so, that’s good!"

During the conversation, he unleashed his horsetail whisk.

"Impudence!" Bai Liang, the Divine General, shouted in fury. How dare this ant be so bold!

He then raised his hand to counterattack, but...

Whoosh!

Thousands of horsetail whisk strands furiously engulfed him, and Bai Liang, the Divine General, had no power to fend them off; he was restrained and suppressed in an instant.

His face was full of shock: "You, what do you want to do! I am Bai Liang, the Divine General of the Divine Realm, I... Ah..."

Taibai Venus laughed and said, "You are Bai Liang, the Divine General from the Divine Realm? No, you are not, I am!"

As he spoke, the old Venus transformed into the likeness of Bai Liang, the Divine General.

Bai Liang, the Divine General, was shocked beyond belief, yet to understand what exactly was happening.

The next moment, Taibai Venus raised his hand and emitted a divine light, turning Bai Liang, the Divine General, into a blood-red orb in an instant.

"Is this the Blood Soul Primordial Spirit?" Taibai Venus frowned with a troubled look, scrutinizing the orb in his hand, still somewhat hesitant.

This was a Divine Skill passed on to them by Sun Wukong, which could refine an opponent’s flesh, Primordial Spirit, and memories into a Blood Soul.

Now, by merging with this Blood Soul, he could transform into Bai Liang, the Divine General and replace the other’s identity in the Divine Realm.

And this was exactly the script Sun Wukong had set for him—using the envoy’s identity to infiltrate the celestial court.

This script was extremely important and equally dangerous. It had to be said, the Great Saint Sun surely thought highly of him!

Finally, Taibai Venus sighed and decided to refine the Blood Soul.

Quickly, he exuded the same aura as Bai Liang, the Divine General, and also obtained all his memories.

Before long, his every gesture was identical to that of Bai Liang, the Divine General.

Soon after, a golden lotus appeared in his hand, but it was not the lotus of merit.

This lotus was refined from the extremely mysterious Divine Power of Great Repitition and could conceal the mysteries of the Great Path.

By integrating the golden lotus into his body, unless a powerful being of the Great Path personally probed, no one would be able to detect anything amiss.

"The skills of the Great Saint Sun are becoming more and more inscrutable," Taibai Venus remarked with feeling before merging the Great Repitition Golden Lotus into his brow, disappearing from sight.

His divine aura became even more substantial, coupled with his haughty demeanor, indistinguishable from the real Bai Liang, the Divine General.

Having done all this, Taibai Venus stayed in the Earth Immortal Realm of the Vast Wilderness for around a hundred years before transforming into Escaping Light and departing for the Divine Realm.

At this moment, within the Ancestral Martial Palace on Mount Buzhou.

Lord Lu Ya chuckled, "It seems that this Divine King from the Divine Realm is quite cautious. Having guarded outside for a hundred years without entering, otherwise, we could have added another character to our script."

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "He’s lucky."

The Divine Realm’s probe this time sent only one Quasi-Saint, Bai Liang, the Divine General, outwardly, but secretly, a Saintly Divine King also followed.

Yet the Divine King was very cautious and never entered the Vast Wilderness.

Now that Taibai Venus has changed his appearance and left as Bai Liang, the Divine General, that Divine King also left with him.

At that moment, Pan Gu inquired, "Wukong, after this probe by the Divine Realm, they should feel that the time to invade has arrived, what will you do next?"

"Next?" A flash of divine light sparked in Sun Wukong’s eyes, "Of course, to let more worlds know where the Vast Wilderness lies!"
