Chapter 535 The Three Emperors Appear in Fire Cloud Cave
The shackles of Heaven's Way, the sealing of destiny by the Investiture of the Gods.
The two volumes of the Investiture of the Gods, now combined into one, were hung high on the Investiture Platform.
A bolt of purple lightning condensed on Yang Jiao's five fingers: "Three Pure Ones Divine Thunder".
He suddenly raised his hand.
In an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, and lightning exploded.
Yang Jian's third eye clearly saw three illusory projections in the sky. Even though Yang Jian had never actually met these three people, he recognized them instantly.
"Fire Cloud Cave, Three Emperors".
Jiang Ziya quickly looked up: "The Three Sovereigns of Fire Cloud Cave?! Aren't they... forbidden from leaving Fire Cloud Cave?"
The Three Sovereigns suppressed the fate of the human race.
Thirty-three layers away, inside the Purple Cloud Palace.
Hongjun Laozu lowered his eyes, his face indifferent.
In an instant, the laws of Heaven acted like iron chains, imprisoning the entire Conferred God Platform.
Humanity began to gradually awaken around Yang Jiao, but was suppressed by the shackles of the Heavenly Dao around him.
A fierce wind raged.
The faces of everyone on the Investiture of the Gods platform were ashen.
Li Jing's spirit looked at everything in a panic, shaking his head in terror:
"No, we can't let this go on. She's going to ruin all our hopes of becoming gods and immortals."
Li Jing was of mediocre talent, and the opportunity to become an immortal was right in front of him. How could he let Yang Jiao ruin it like this?
He strode towards Yang Jiao, who was currently battling against the heavenly lightning. His soul gradually thickened from pale gray, faintly revealing a sinister black aura.
"Witch! How dare you defy the heavens!" he shouted, intending to launch a sneak attack while Yang Jiao was distracted, in order to show his loyalty to the heavens.
If he succeeds in killing Yang Jiao, who is defying the heavens, then Heaven will surely reward Li Jing by greatly altering his physical constitution.
Li Jing's face was filled with barely contained joy. His black, misty soul, with its crimson eyes, murmured as it ran towards Yang Jiao.
Just when he had it almost within his grasp, a wave of red surged before his eyes.
Right before everyone's eyes, the Hun Tian Ling whipped him away.
"Do you want to die again?" Nezha glanced at Li Jing sideways.
"Nezha!" Li Jing shouted, "Kill Yang Jiao, and we, father and son, will receive the favor of Heaven. Nezha, you can't be foolish at this time!"
"You've always been the fool."
Nezha brandished his Fire-Tipped Spear and pointed it at Li Jing's throat.
"I'll say it again: Anyone who gets close to Yang Jiao will die!"
The battle against the Heavenly Thunder is beyond their ability to help.
However, anyone who dares to hold Yang Jiao back at this time will die.
Jinzha and Muzha seemed to snap out of their daze and hurriedly pulled Li Jing back.
Muzha murmured, "Nezha is no longer the Nezha of the Li family... He really will kill you."
"Nonsense! I am his biological father! Aren't you afraid of being condemned by the Three Realms if you kill me?"
"Father!" Jinzha only realized what it meant to be filled with regret at this moment. He lowered his head, with a trace of sadness: "Nezha really would kill us. He didn't do it not because he was afraid of rumors, but because Yang Jiao didn't let him kill you with his own hands."
Li Jing looked up at Nezha's solemn expression and murmured:
"In his heart, am I, his father, really less important than a single word from that vixen?"
Jinzha and Muzha: "Hmm."
Li Jing: ……
Throughout the Investiture of the Gods, there were many people who shared the same idea as Li Jing, but they faced the challenge of dealing with the two great gods, Yang Jian and Nezha, before they could get close to Yang Jiao.
Yang Jian held a three-pointed double-edged sword, while Nezha held a fire-tipped spear horizontally.
They stood on either side of Yang Jiao like guardian deities, giving a warning look to everyone present.
Jiang Ziya moved his lips; as the one destined to bestow divine titles, he was the one most obligated to offer advice.
Jiang Ziya stepped forward, but his collar was suddenly tightened, and he was pulled aside by a hand that seemed to come from nowhere, and slammed against a white jade pillar.
Shen Gongbao pressed forward and shouted angrily:
"Are you stupid? Can't you see that humanity is about to awaken? Jiang Ziya, are you really confused or just pretending!"
Jiang Ziya smiled:
"Junior brother, you're getting impatient."
Shen Gongbao immediately released his grip.
The forces of Heaven pressed down, intending to control all those who broke the rules, to tie the laws around everyone's necks like a rope.
Yang Jiao narrowed her eyes as she watched the menacing thunder dragon approaching from the sky.
Hongjun Laozu himself does not appear, in order to maintain the impartiality of the Heavenly Dao. Whenever someone tries to break the rules, he tests them with heavenly lightning.
Those who survive the heavenly thunder are those recognized by the Way of Heaven.
What is destroyed by heavenly thunder is what Heaven does not allow.
There's too much room for maneuver.
Yang Jiao raised his sword finger and tapped it on his forehead. A beam of light from his Heavenly Eye leaped out and shot towards the clouds. The thick dark clouds seemed to be split in two by a sharp sword.
The azure horizon in the middle is revealed.
The figures of the Three Sovereigns finally became clear at this moment.
"The Three Sovereigns!"
"They are the Three Sovereigns of the Human Race!"
When the Three Sovereigns appeared, all the spirits on the Investiture Platform bowed their heads in devout reverence.
As Fuxi's fingertips swept across the air, the Eight Trigrams shattered, and the scattered starlight rushed in, landing on the chains formed by the laws of Heaven.
A flame ignited in Shennong's palm, and the spark of Suiren flew straight towards the chain.
Xuanyuan drew his sword with a clang, its gleaming light and shadow piercing through the shackles.
Yang Jiao suddenly concentrated all her magical power in her palm, forming a perfectly round ball of lightning, and pushed it forcefully towards the dark clouds in the sky:
"We do not seek immortality, nor do we worship fate; humanity will stand on its own!"
With a loud bang.
The dark clouds dispersed.
In the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun's figure flickered, and he quickly raised his eyes: "Yang Jiao."
I underestimated you.
"The person following the Primordial Purple Qi almost blinded me."
Hongjun summoned the Jade Disc of Creation and gently touched it with his fingertip.
"The Way of Heaven is the Way of Heaven forever, and no one dares to harbor any rebellious thoughts against it."
The Investiture Platform.
An even greater pressure roared in.
The phantom images of the Three Sovereigns almost dissipated.
Fuxi looked at Yang Jiao below him and hurriedly said:
“Child, our main bodies are still suppressing the human race’s fortune in the Fire Cloud Cave, this clone won’t last much longer.”
The Xuanyuan Sword flashed with a cold light. He looked at Yang Jiao with regret. If the awakening of humanity was incomplete this time, there would never be a second chance.
"The sages have all been unable to emerge, and it seems unlikely that humanity will be able to awaken this time."
Because they needed to suppress the luck, the three of them could not easily leave the Fire Cloud Cave. Once their main bodies left, even the last bit of human luck would be lost.
This is the fundamental reason why many parties want to compete for the human race's fortune, but can only scheme against it and cannot forcibly seize it.
Because the Three Sovereigns still existed.
Yang Jiao's body weakened. She had already exhausted herself by dispersing the dark clouds. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, which was a result of the backlash from defying the heavens, and supported herself, not daring to fall.
"We can't just give up like this."
The Investiture of the Gods has been merged. All the plans we've made over the years are finally going to be completed today. We absolutely cannot give up just because of the suppression from Heaven.
Despite the excruciating pain that felt like her bones were about to break, Yang Jiao straightened up.
The demonic energy absorbed into her body continued to reorganize in her meridians, making them even more resilient.
Yang Jiao was weak and exhausted at this time. Humanity had only occupied a small part of the Conferred God Platform before being surrounded by Heaven.
"I refuse to believe that humans can't overcome nature!"
At the foot of Qishan Mountain, a small flame suddenly appeared.
Yang Jian, with his sharp eyes, was the first to notice:
"Look, what's that?"
"People, it's all people, people have come."
One, two, more and more starlight lit up.
