Chapter 157 - Small Merit Waistcoat (1/2)

“Alright!”

On the high platform in Lingxiao Treasure Hall, a white-robed young man shouted. General Dongmu who was below the platform could not help but s.h.i.+ver.

When he heard that, the Jade Emperor, Hao Tian, laughed loudly. He kept patting the desk and clicked his tongue in wonder.

“What the guest Changgeng said is true and resonates with how I feel! I’ve been concerned about this for many years. Today, I finally have someone to speak to! Hahahaha! Why have I only met Changgeng now? Hahaha! The four seas are settled!”

General Dongmu lowered his head and did not dare to speak. However, in his heart, he was filled with admiration.

He had obtained that introductory message from the Sea G.o.d Sect four hours ago.

After he took action, General Dongmu immediately rushed back and handed it to His Majesty.

It had been many years since he had seen the Jade Emperor being that happy… In his heart, General Dongmu understood the hidden meaning behind His Majesty’s words.

“I’ve been keeping this in my heart for many years. Today, I finally have a guest to talk about this matter with.” That meant that His Majesty had not expected that matter to be resolved.

Fellow Daoist Changgeng is truly an expert! “Congratulations, Your Majesty.” General Dongmu cupped his hands and said, “Now, we have to appease the Four Seas. The Three Realms will return soon.”

“What you said is a little exaggerated, General Dongmu.” The Jade Emperor smiled and said, “There are a few Saints in the Three Realms presiding over it now. The Three Sects of the Dao Sect are protecting the world. It doesn’t matter if it returns or not. The Three Realms will be safe.”

General Dongmu’s expression changed, but he laughed in his heart.

Ever since His Majesty met the Sea G.o.d of the South Ocean, his daily behavior had become much more stable.

Of course, he did not dare to say that since he was a servant. He could only lower his head and sigh.

“Your Majesty is magnanimous. I can’t reach

Hao Tian smiled and looked at the warm cloth in front of him. His eyes were full of admiration, and his heart was surging.

If he took in the dragon race and the four seas, he could display his might through the clouds and rain.

He could control the seas and stabilize the world. He could use the Sea Army to settle the trichiliocosm!

Hao Tian saw the crucial moment of the Heavenly Court’s rise.

It was as if he had suddenly found a door. After pus.h.i.+ng it open, there was a bright path!

In the end, Li Changshou wrote two sentences.

The first line was that he should not be too hasty in everything. It was best for him to rely on his power and influence to achieve victory.

The second sentence was interesting.

“A helping hand in need is better than a complementary accessory…”

Hao Tian carefully thought about it and soon understood. He smiled confidently.

“General Dongmu!”

“I’m here.”

“Let’s go to the Illuminated Hall to take a look and understand the decree. How does that sound?”

“Yes, I’ll go take a look.”

Then, General Dongmu turned around and left quickly. Hao Tian sat behind the desk, his fingers brus.h.i.+ng against the memorial. He could not help but laugh.

“Although there are not many disciples in Ren School, most of them are really extraordinary.”

When General Dongmu returned in a hurry and said that only thirty percent of the decree had just been completed, Hao Tian nodded slightly and said, “I’ll have to trouble you to make a trip to the Tus.h.i.+ta Palace and retrieve some high-grade spiritual herbs and precious herbs for me to use during refining.” General Dongmu lowered his head and nodded. He walked out from the side of the hall and rode a cloud towards the Heavenly Courts’ treasure vault.

“Changgeng, Chang, Geng…”

Hao Tian stood up and stretched his muscles and supported himself against the desk with one hand, keeping the other behind his back. He looked at the stars that were slowly revolving on the dome of Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

“Does this Dao name belong to any expert from Ren School? Senior Brother, the Grand Pure One, only has a few in-name disciples. Who would be related to this Dao name?”

In the empty hall, the Jade Emperor Hao Tian muttered softly. The clouds on the floor of the hall could not give him any reply.

The emperor suddenly thought of something and looked at Li Changshou’s admonishments carefully. Then, he took out other admonishments and compared them.

Not long after, the Jade Emperor’s eyes lit up. He grabbed a piece of cloth and wrote a line of small words on it.

Soon, the emperor summoned a civil servant outside the hall and pushed down the cloth that he had written on, with immortal power.

“Tell the servants of the Heavenly Courts that all memorials will have to be in this format, no matter who submits it.

If anything is wrong, they will be punished for ten years.”

The moment the Jade Emperor finished speaking, the servant immediately lowered his head and accepted his orders.

At that moment, a golden light flashed from the top of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall and disappeared from the Heavenly Courts.

The Jade Emperor naturally knew what was going on.

As soon as he said that, the Heavenly Dao had a detection. Due to the matter regarding the “memorial format”, he had bestowed the Heavenly Dao merit to the Sea G.o.d of the South Ocean.

The golden light formed from merit was not considered small.

The Jade Emperor chuckled.

He felt that he had given too little merit.

Unfortunately, even if he was the Jade Emperor, he could not change his mind. Otherwise, he would not be stingy at all.

At the same time… on the treasure s.h.i.+p that had yet to leave the East Continent, a golden glow suddenly appeared around Li Changshou.

He immediately opened his eyes and activated his long robe with Dharma powers, quickly covering the golden light…

What the h.e.l.l?

Li Changshou scanned his body and looked at the surroundings of his essence soul. There was a flash of golden light, and the tiny essence soul effigy was submerged in the pool of merit! The merit that suddenly appeared was much purer than the incense merit he had collected previously!

Is this…

Has the Jade Emperor specially rewarded me because he had seen the memorial I had written?

Li Changshou quickly refined the merit. After the boxers, he began to put on a small waistcoat for the essence soul effigy.

The Life Safety Index increased by three times!

During that process, Li Changshou’s mind was tense. He used his immortal senses to monitor his surroundings.

Fortunately, the changes around him just now did not disturb anyone on the s.h.i.+p.

The seven Sensing Stones on his body did not light up.

Twelve feet away, in another corner of the deck of the treasure s.h.i.+p, Youqin Xuanya had entered a state of meditation.

Li Changshou thought about it and did not make any rash moves. He focused on refining the power of merit that suddenly appeared.

His Majesty, the Jade Emperor… is too generous!

Li Changshou praised. He knew that it was not easy to obtain that merit. It was a reward that could only be obtained by calculating the destiny of the entire dragon race.

Clearly, he had misunderstood something since he had not officially ascended to the heavens… Li Changshou quickly realized another problem.
