Chapter 684: Chapter 581: I Steal Oil for the Mortal World_2

The stars stir behind the twin towers, with the moon illuminating the border cities. The Cowherd and the Weaver, year after year they cross, yet never do the winds and waves arise.

In the tale of the Cowherd and Weaver orchestrated by the West King Holy Mother herself, it was her hairpin that parted the Heavenly River.

Separating the Cowherd and the Weaver stars on opposite banks of the Heavenly River, one in the east and one in the west, never meeting. Only on Chinese Valentine’s Day, with the bridge of magpies, can they finally reunite.

The divine might of this "Deceit Object" in Her hands is evident.

The West King Holy Mother held the divine hairpin, and, unexpectedly, recited the complete chant:

"Kan holds true water swirling with dark waves, reversing the flow and rising to the Heavenly River.

Yin ascends, Yang descends, water and fire in harmony, forming clouds high and lofty. Ceaseless rain arrays spread throughout the Saha world, the water’s command crushes early demons, with one divine talisman set in the mysterious order. Hurry, hurry, as the decree mandates!"

Under the full force of this Heavenly Official’s intense urging,

The Heavenly River’s Weak Water, tainted with the pitch-black mire of malicious thoughts, suddenly surged higher with each wave, like ferocious beasts racing headlong into the "Backdoor."

A look of merciless cruelty flashed in the eyes of the four Heavenly Officials.

Even though the accumulated malicious mire had not yet peaked, this tidal wave might just take the chance, drowning the frail "Dragon Qi Prohibition" in one fell swoop.

"Cackle, drown you! Drown you all!"

However.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The Xuanyuan Mirror on the body of the West King Holy Mother, capable of peering into the changes of the Human Dao, inappropriately chose this moment to sound for the third time.

With unprecedented intensity!

It caused the four to flinch suddenly, filled with an inexplicable rush of panic, as if they had done something wrong.

...

In the East Sea, the Returning Ruins.

The Dragon Countries atop Daiyu Immortal Mountain, the Merfolk Country atop Yuanjiao Immortal Mountain, the Feather People Country atop Fanghu Immortal Mountain, and the Immortal Mist Temple on Immortal Mist Island had long since again aligned.

They activated the "Iron Chain Across the River Formation" in the face of the increasingly loud sounds from the Returning Ruins, fully prepared for battle.

Behind them, far across the land in Yan State, Yu State, and Dai State, covering nearly one-third of Red County Shenzhou, countless households kept their lights bright throughout the night.

Wisps of incense smoke rose straight to the clouds.

The portraits of the God of Wealth were also displayed in every household.

An unprecedented divine light emanated from these images, almost illuminating half of the night sky.

It can only be said that on this land of Red County Shenzhou, our God of Wealth has the makings of a great emperor!

The plan was divided into three stages.

Among all the Earth Gods, Human Ghosts and Mundane Gods in the Mortal World, the God of Wealth undoubtedly had the widest following and the strongest desires attached to him.

Duke Bingling and Huang Wu merely nudged, and most of the populace became fervent, staying up all night to pray on the birthday of the God of Wealth on the twenty-second of July.

With the help of the strong Wishing Power generated collectively by the inhabitants of the three states, and proactively triggered by the Immortal Duke Bingling, they easily induced the "Human Dao Torrent" ahead of time.

Thanks to the Nine-Tailed Fox’s act of signaling a "drowning" emergency, they even secured a divine assist.

"Xiao Yuan, the tide is coming! Look at this shiny black hue, it’s prime stuff!"

Above a patch of azure clouds, aside from Sage Qingxia and the rulers of the Three Kingdoms, Wang Yuan was present with a group of Green Seals and Yellow Seals, having arrived in advance.

Wang Yuan, Star Lord Taibai’s incarnation, Huang Wu, Xin Ruoheng, the Second Beauty, and also Xing’er and Su Guyun as the Lotus Tea duo.

At this time, in the highest layer of Wang Yuan’s Inner Scene Heaven and Earth, within the Cycle Heaven Star Realm,

Apart from the "Moon Palace" presided over by Huang Wu and the "Sun Palace" illuminated by the Three Yang Ruyi,

There was now also a shining red "Ying Huo Star Mansion," becoming the brightest star after the Taiyin Star and the Sun Star in the night sky.

There were also the comparatively dim stars of gold, wood, water, and earth, together guarding the sun and the moon.

Matching the heavenly stars, together forming the seven luminaries.

Representing the other officials who had yet to break through the Green Seal.

However, the glory of the "Ying Huo Star Mansion" was temporarily illusory and clearly had not solidified completely.

The Nine-Tailed Fox, though entirely devoured by Xing’er, had after all housed a "Killing Dao Fruit" within itself.

Now sealed together with the "Killing Dao Fruit" within Xing’er’s abdomen, it served at most as an "Outer Elixir" that could freely harness power.

But should their scheme conclude successfully this time around,

They would be able to refine the false into truth alongside Wang Yuan’s ascension to the "Dharma Image."

Even if each "Five Senses" of the Five Senses only had one "Altar," qualifying as the weakest of Green Seals, that would still be the battle force of six Green Seals combined.

Merely by taking a stand there, it would be akin to having fully cleared the Mortal World instance, with no pressure even when facing a solo battle against the invincible Martial Saint of the Great Success Realm.

Along with Huang Wu’s warning, "Here comes the tide!",

The "Sun Palace" within the Cycle Heaven Star Realm suddenly burst forth with bright light.

As if it required no aid from the Nine Soldiers’ treasure, the "Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Net," to connect with the Heavenly Dao.

It seemed that another new Heavenly Department Divine Position was about to be added, following the Star Lord Taibai, King Yanluo, and Eastern Ghost Emperor.

One could vaguely sense that this seemed to be the deity who steered the chariot of the sun— the Sun Charioteer!

Another layer was added to his disguise.

Wang Yuan, however, was not in the least bit surprised—his eyes a deep indigo—as he looked through the Returning Ruins and gazed at the black tide reversedly pouring down from the collective dream realm of the ancient twelve corpses, and he chuckled:

"Toiling all day, running around in haste, I steal oil for my motherland!

This hand will bring a light to the industrial civilization akin to stealing fire from the Heavenly Realm, and it makes sense that it has earned me a position of the Sun Charioteer."

Finally, it was our turn to fleece some wool from the Killing Tree.

It was truly in accordance with the Heavenly Dao, and nothing could be more virtuous!"

With a thought, he sent a signal to Yama’s Avatar and Zhou Jinhuan, who had already taken their places in the Yin Department.

The two immediately cast three sacrificial texts into the Nine Cauldrons cast by Yu in the states of Yan, Yu, and Dai.

Zhou Jinhuan, dressed in his ceremonial robes, stood behind the incense table, deeply bowed to the three great cauldrons, and proclaimed loudly:

"Since Pangu split Heaven and Earth, the Three Sovereigns have established nations, and the Five Emperors have expanded territories.

When a country faces major events, its men must defend and sacrifice for their country even to the demise of their bodies.

Even if bones pile into mounds and blood fills rivers,

One must not let the country’s soil be humiliated or its borders lost.

Scholars will offer their complete loyalty, and generals will commit themselves to the battle’s edge.

Commanders will bear bloodstained sleeves, and kings will shine with gleaming blades.

Regardless of age, status, sequence, or rank, all must unite and exert their utmost strength.

To pour the water of the Turbid River, to breach the waves of the East Sea,

To conquer the lands of barbarians, to eradicate the nests of deceitful creatures,

To attack those who deceive us, to wage war on foreign intruders.

So that the seas may rage and children may live without shame.

Even if corpses scatter the wilderness, only the spirit remains steadfast!

I, Zhou Jinhuan, King Jing of the states of Yan, Yu, and Dai, beseech the Emperors of Red County Shenzhou throughout history to protect our Yan Han mountains and rivers!"

Gurgle, gurgle...

No sooner had his words ended than the three cauldrons began to boil in succession, as over a hundred Emperors clad in dragon robes suddenly opened their golden dragon eyes.

They lifted their heads toward the Mortal World and waved a hand.

"Proclaim Our edict: Expel the Deceit Objects!"

"Edict: Expel the Deceit Objects!"

"Expel the Deceit Objects!"

The voices of hundreds melded into one, instantly piercing through the Nine Heavens and the Ten Earths.

In that moment, it seemed the whole world was echoing the edict of the hundreds of Emperors.

And within the sea of the Collective Unconscious, which gathered all of history, culture, knowledge—and all of everything—humankind had ever known,

One Emperor after another stepped forth from the historical strata they ruled, surrounded by an assembly of civil and military officials in an ethereal procession, each one bearing the Heavenly Decrees.

"Edict: How dare others rest easy beside our couch? Expel the Deceit Objects!"

The entire force of the Human Dao was mobilized, transforming into a scaly dragon energy giant hand that grasped the collective dream realm of the ancient twelve corpses.

Even though Yayu’s Corpse, Erfu Corpse, Wang Hai’s Corpse, and Xia Geng’s Corpse—these four ancient Human Emperors above the status of Emperor—manifested their forms,

Roaring with their powers as they contended against it,

Yet when Zhou Jinhuan, holding the Imperial Jade Seal aloft, also used all his strength to cry out: "Those who dare offend the mighty Han, no matter how far, will be punished, Expel the Deceit Objects!"

Bang—!

The connection between these four ancient Human Emperors and the sea of Collective Unconscious of humanity was severed in an instant.

While the pollution of the rules caused by the Inner Scene bomb was irreversible,

It finally ripped the Returning Ruins, anchored by the four Human Emperors, from the Collective Unconscious Sea of humanity.

Utterly severing its attempt to pollute all humanity.

Subsequently, things fell into place naturally.

As the surging black tide spread to the edge of the collective dream realm of the ancient twelve corpses, it could no longer advance and merely continued to accumulate within the Returning Ruins.

Gradually forming a breathtaking open-sea oil field!

A melodious song seemed to slowly resonate over the East Sea’s surface:

"With machine gun in hand to welcome the sunrise, tank trucks deliver the sunset glow, fearing neither heaven nor earth... I steal oil for my homeland, your home’s oil, your home becomes mine..."
