Chapter 213 From this day forward, you shall be the Eastern Emperor of the Heavenly Court.
Chapter 213 From this day forward, you shall be the Eastern Emperor of the Heavenly Court.
Hearing these two voices, Di Jun finally felt relieved.
At the same time, an overwhelming feeling of ecstasy surged into his heart, quickly engulfing his entire body like a surging tide.
He, Di Jun, was right after all!
Within the origin of the Heavenly Dao, Hong Yuan's avatar pondered for a moment, then grabbed a portion of the Heavenly Dao's merits with a large hand.
Then, with a wave of his arm, the Heavenly Merits that shimmered with dazzling light transformed into countless golden streams of light, cascading down like a waterfall.
Although Di Jun was not the true master of the Heavenly Court, his establishment of the Heavenly Court was indeed a great achievement.
Hong Yuan has always been known for his clear distinction between merits and demerits, and is famously magnanimous. He deserves a reward.
Gazing at the Heavenly Merit that floated down from the void, Di Jun, Tai Yi, and the rest of the Heavenly Court officials all widened their eyes, their faces filled with unbelievable joy.
They never imagined that establishing the Heavenly Court would bring them Heavenly Merit!
At that very moment, the immense Heavenly Dao merit poured down like a dazzling torrent.
Fifty percent of the rain fell precisely on the bodies of Di Jun and Tai Yi, like golden raindrops; another twenty percent transformed into starlight, drifting towards the Thirty-Six Heavens; and the final thirty percent fell upon the various beings in the Heavenly Court.
Thanks to this Heavenly Dao merit, the karmic burdens binding Di Jun and Tai Yi were instantly dispelled.
That was the karma they suffered from attacking Zhen Yuanzi earlier.
Even after so many years, they still retain many traces of it.
Now, thanks to the merits of Heaven, they have finally completely erased this part of their karmic burden.
Moreover, with the immense help brought by this portion of Heavenly Dao merit, Di Jun broke through the bottleneck on his cultivation path and successfully entered the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
The aura emanating from him grew increasingly powerful and profound, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at him.
The remaining Taiyi and the people of the Heavenly Court were the same, all of whom made great progress in their cultivation.
In particular, Taiwei and Ling Shuang, who were at the very back of the Heavenly Court's generals, broke through to the True Immortal realm in one fell swoop thanks to this portion of Heavenly Dao merit.
The improvement is considerable.
Taiwei and Ling Shuang lowered their heads and exchanged a glance without leaving a trace, both seeing a hint of joy in each other's eyes.
If one were to rely solely on arduous cultivation to break through from the Celestial Immortal realm to the True Immortal level, it would likely take an immeasurable number of long years.
Now, simply by joining the Heavenly Court, they can obtain Heavenly Merit, which allows them to easily achieve the goal they have dreamed of for many years.
At that moment, they secretly rejoiced: adding the Heavenly Court was the right decision!
However, the situation of Taiwei and Ling Shuang was observed by Dijun on the Sendai.
This also surprised even Di Jun.
After all, there are not many people like these two who have crossed such a great realm. Although the Heavenly Dao Merit is a precious treasure of the primordial world, which can be described as wonderful, it is still very rare for these two to be able to break through to the True Immortal realm directly with just a trace of Heavenly Dao Merit.
But it only made Di Jun glance at them slightly, and he didn't linger on them for long.
After all, no matter what, Taiwei and Ling Shuang were only at the True Immortal realm.
If it weren't for the magnitude of their breakthrough, Di Jun probably wouldn't have given the two of them a second glance.
As the Heavenly Dao merits fell, the magnificent gaze in the void slowly faded from everyone's sight.
At this moment, Di Jun stood quietly on the platform, silently feeling the surging, powerful energy within his body.
Although he did not make any obvious moves or changes in posture, anyone could clearly perceive the spirited and arrogant aura emanating from Di Jun.
Di Jun stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes gleaming with golden light, looking down at the members of the Heavenly Court like a great emperor.
With a slight upturn of his lips, exuding an indescribable air of authority, he spoke in a deep voice: "Today, the Emperor is recognized by Heaven and Earth, and permitted by the Dao Venerable. From this day forward, our Heavenly Court is established. The Emperor will fulfill his duties to the utmost, living up to the Mandate of Heaven. I also hope that you all will join hands with the Emperor to establish order, revive the name of our Heavenly Court, and live up to the Dao Venerable's expectations!"
When these words reached the ears of everyone present, apart from Taiyi who had been following Dijun, all the other members of the Heavenly Court instantly became excited.
They hurriedly clasped their hands and bowed deeply to Di Jun, who stood above them, to show their absolute respect and obedience to him.
"We will obey the Heavenly Emperor's decree and faithfully perform our duties to strengthen our Heavenly Court and live up to the expectations of the Daoist Master!"
Seeing this, Di Jun nodded in satisfaction.
Then he looked at Taiyi, who was standing next to the Heavenly Court members, with an excited expression.
"Where is my brother Taiyi?!"
"Taiyi is here!"
Looking at Taiyi before him, Dijun's eyes also showed a hint of relief.
"From this day forward, you shall be the Eastern Emperor of the Heavenly Court, standing on equal footing with me, and jointly ruling the Heavenly Court!"
Upon hearing this, Taiyi answered decisively without the slightest hesitation, "Yes!"
Although he had little interest in managing the affairs of the Heavenly Court, and even felt some resistance to it, he wouldn't contradict his elder brother on the very first day of the Heavenly Court's establishment.
But in his heart, he secretly thought that when the time was right, he must find an opportunity to have a good talk with his older brother.
He only cares about cultivation and fighting; he doesn't do anything else.
After bestowing titles upon Taiyi, Dijun turned his gaze to the rest of the Heavenly Court members.
"Lin Niu, Qing Niu, Ji Meng, Shang Yang!"
"Your subjects are here!" The four Lin Niu who were called out shouted in unison, then stepped out from the crowd with utmost respect, stood with their heads bowed, and awaited further instructions from Emperor Jun.
If before, Linniu and Qingniu could still address Dijun as "fellow Daoist," they could no longer do so after the establishment of the Heavenly Court today.
As officials and generals of the Heavenly Court, a hierarchical order must still be maintained.
Di Jun also noticed the change in how Lin Niu and the others addressed him, but he didn't show much emotion. He simply smiled slightly and then spoke again:
"From this day forward, our Heavenly Court will establish ten military divisions. You will all be one of the ten generals of the Heavenly Court, each leading a division of the Heavenly Court's troops. You must ensure that the name of our Heavenly Court spreads throughout the entire prehistoric world!"
At this point, Di Jun paused briefly, and the oppressive aura emanating from his body surged forth like a tidal wave, instantly becoming even more intense.
His expression was solemn as he spoke in a deep voice, enunciating each word clearly: "The day my Heavenly Court is back on track will be the day you take action. Our names will begin in these Thirty-Six Heavens!"
Although Ji Meng and Shang Yang are only at the mid-stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, they only broke through this level recently thanks to the Heavenly Dao Merit they accumulated.
But since Ji Meng and Shang Yang had already followed him for a long time, Di Jun was still willing to give them a chance.
Moreover, in the current prehistoric world...
Reaching the mid-stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm is already quite impressive.
He will then bestow upon each of them a better temple, and with the treasures of the temple, they will be able to fight even against a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Therefore, Di Jun was not worried that the two of them would be unable to control their subordinates.
"Yes!!" Lin Niu and the others shouted in unison, their surging fighting spirit bursting forth.
