Chapter 141 The Battle from Beyond the Heavens

Doraemon in outer space.

All ten treasures in the scroll are gathered in one place.

Behind them was the azure blue planet Doraemon, and in front of them stretched the star-studded space.

They stared solemnly into the depths of space, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed, and Green Pepper appeared in front of them.

With her hands behind her back, facing the same direction they were looking, she said, "Sorry, there were too many people from the company who came to congratulate us, and we just saw off the last group of guests."

Because of his high status, no one dared to respond with such polite words.

Xu Xiangsheng then stepped forward, slowly floated to his side, and bowed, saying, "Holy King, according to the intelligence we have gathered, there are no fewer than five hundred gods who have come to conquer Blue Fat Star this time."

"We are outnumbered and outgunned. If necessary, could we make a compromise?"

"So many?"

Green Pepper turned her head to look at Xu, quite surprised.

Yes, that's right!

Xu Xiangsheng nodded slightly.

But then, Green Pepper turned around, his brows furrowed and his eyes cold, "This is what is called 'overseas deity'."

They turned a blind eye when the star looked away and killed the native god of the Blue Fat Star;

They turned a deaf ear when natural disasters ravaged the planet Blue Fat.

Now that their lineage has been cut off, they immediately formed a group to come and demand an explanation.

A bunch of scoundrels and parasites who forgot their roots after being promoted!

Seeing his resolute attitude, Xu Xiangsheng quickly changed the subject, "The formation you asked us to set up is ready."

"Master Xu, among the ten treasures in this scroll, you are the only one who cultivates the Dao, right?"

Green Pepper didn't respond to him, but consulted on her own.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xu Xiangsheng secretly pounded the drum, thinking that the Holy King was going to blame him for proposing a compromise.

"Then do you know what the Dharma-ending Age is?"

Green peppers, however, had something else to say.

"Bad traits abound, and spiritual energy is scarce."

Xu Xiangsheng bowed again, relieved that it was a false alarm.

"How can we reshape the era of righteous Dharma?"

Green Pepper asked again.

"Using the theory of the Pisces soul of the God King as a reference."

The wicked spirit is like weeds and must be eradicated. Only then can the sacred herb flourish, overflowing with spiritual energy to nourish heaven and earth.

Heaven and earth are nourished, their essence is abundant, and the era of righteous law can be reshaped.

Xu Xiangsheng replied.

"That's right, the essence of heaven and earth is 'nutrients,' while the soul is 'plants,' nourished by the essence of heaven and earth."

When a superior soul is nourished, its spiritual energy is replenished and will overflow to heaven and earth; this overflowing energy is spiritual energy.

A poor soul is spiritually deficient; it receives nourishment but does not produce spiritual energy.

Spiritual energy is the source of gathering essence; if there are many inferior plants, there will be less spiritual energy, and if there is little spiritual energy, the essence of heaven and earth will be scarce.

This vicious cycle, if continued, leads to ecological imbalance and the formation of the Dharma-ending Age.

This celestial herb, though growing elsewhere, still retains its roots in the temple, sharing in the already scarce spiritual energy of the world.

Therefore, the weeds of this world must be removed, and the celestial herbs from beyond the heavens, those lacking virtue, must also be removed.

Green Pepper revealed the reason for severing ties with the "overseas deities".

Xu Xiangsheng understood all of this, but between the lines he sensed the Holy King's determination to "end the Dharma-ending Age and usher in a new Dharma-righteous Age"?

For a fleeting moment, a unique "era of righteous law" lingered in his mind.

That was so exhilarating that he couldn't help but bow respectfully again...

"They're here."

Suddenly, someone spoke to the distant starry sky.

In the depths of space, many "points of starlight" gradually appeared.

Before the starlight arrived, there was the overwhelming pressure of the gods, like a tidal wave.

"Xiao Jiu, you are the only girl in the Ten Collections. Gang fights and other rough work are not suitable for you. Go back to Vanishing Island for a while."

Green Pepper said without turning her head.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Jiu's survival wasn't solely due to hiding."

Shizang Xiaojiu clenched his fists, his gaze as hard as iron.

Green Pepper smiled slightly.

Then everyone fell silent.

Until, five hundred gods who came to punish them appeared before them.

It was a group of gods from different origins, each with their own unique style of dress and appearance.

"Xu Zhenjun, do you see this?"

That guy, with a full beard and shirtless, looked like an uncivilized savage.

That guy, with a black collar and white jacket embroidered with a Tai Chi symbol, is also a Taoist practitioner.

Therefore, it is clear that once the soul lacks "virtue," there is no longer any distinction between high and low, noble and base; they are all birds of a feather.

Green Pepper immediately launched into a tirade of mockery against the group of gods.

The gods did not rush to act because Qingjiao's soul source was too noble. Although he was weak and alone in the present world, they still had some reservations.

Therefore, they secretly discussed that the "cultivating deity" he mentioned should take the lead in negotiating, trying to achieve peace as much as possible.

"This humble deity, whose Taoist name is Xuanmiaoqing, pays homage to the Holy King."

The Taoist priest, carrying a whisk, stepped forward and bowed.

"Stop worshipping. I only accept the worship of the new gods after the re-deification."

There is a kind of 'pride' that is innate and comes from the soul. Since awakening, Green Pepper has gradually come to embody this 'pride'.

He showed no courtesy to the other party, tilting his head slightly and not even glancing at them.

Xuanmiao Qing tactfully raised his head, blinked, and then changed his expression, "May I ask, Holy King, you said that you would [re-establish the gods], and that everyone would have the opportunity to become a god?"

Could it be that these newly appointed gods, being wise, are all superior to us, the so-called old gods?

Moreover, some of my fellow believers are powerful figures who have pioneered new teachings.

Their influence remains strong to this day, continuing to inspire countless lives to be good and beautiful.

Since our goal is to guide all beings toward goodness and beauty, why shouldn't we be entitled to enjoy the offerings of incense in this world?

Is our wisdom really so worthless?

Are you done talking?

Unmoved by the slightest change, Green Pepper put his hands on his hips, half-closed his eyes, and said, "I have never denied the wisdom and contributions of any of you."

I can also say with certainty that the new gods of the new era will not only not surpass you, but most of them will build their own glories based on your wisdom.

But times have changed. My reincarnation is a turning point, and the universe has reached a point where all living beings are ascending to a new dimension.

Your wisdom can only make a portion of highly enlightened people fit into this era. Throughout history, no one's theories or ideas have been able to drive current needs.

Therefore, the new era has its own wisdom, and you should step down if necessary.

Besides, no one is blocking your path. You can adapt to the times, possess both virtue and conduct, and become a new god in line with the new era.

Then look at the gods in the zodiac of the Milky Way. How many of them rely on incense offerings to prolong their lives? Aren't they all self-reliant and constantly striving for improvement?

Incense offerings are a symbol of the new era; those who work harder will be rewarded, not a guaranteed job for anyone.

"Judging from the God-King's intentions, there's definitely no room for compromise?"

Xuanmiao Qing's expression gradually became subtle, somewhere between 'polite' and 'rude'.

"Re-deification."

Green Pepper's eyes gleamed with a sharp light, and his words were firm and resounding.

Xuanmiao nodded, flicked his dust, and retreated towards the gods.

Then, both sides were filled with fighting spirit, and their invisible pressure surged like two surging waves, colliding and crashing against each other. Of course, the pressure from the five hundred gods was stronger.

Suddenly, even in the cloudless sky, electricity was generated. Several bolts of purple lightning burst forth between the two forces of pressure, and due to the difference in pressure intensity, they leaned towards the green pepper.

The gods made the first move; with the advantage, they had no need to be conservative.

They were just waiting for the lightning to 'bombard' the way, and then they would each display their abilities and rush over in a swarm.

But things did not go as they expected. At first, the lightning was like a swarm of giant pythons, unstoppable, but it was suddenly pushed back by an invisible force halfway through and disappeared again.

At the same time, countless runes appeared faintly in the vast expanse of space, like ribbons of cloth falling from the heavens, covering every corner.

The five hundred gods immediately recognized that it was these invisible runes that had erased the lightning.

However, they were unaware of the key points of the formation and dared not act rashly.

"It is the 'Black Laws of Fengdu'."

It is the source of the Holy King's soul, the first law of heaven and earth created by the ancient great god, the Great Emperor of the Central Heaven.

This law can eliminate all laws in the mortal world, and also punish all gods and spirits in the mortal world.

Xuanmiao Qing was able to recognize it and informed the gods.

"That's right. Now that you know how powerful it is, why don't you quickly take your fellow gods back to where you belong?"

Green Pepper stretched out his arm, casually "plucked" a talisman, and looked at the incantation on it.

This is the formation he named "Juanli Shizang Cloth Formation".

Only he has the qualifications and permissions to enable it.
