Chapter 53: Kong Xuan Transforms His Body

  Kong Xuan and Zi Yu hadn't reached the quasi-saint realm yet, so they couldn't feel the deeper aspects of the laws, but this time listening to the Dao, they still gained a lot. The greatest benefit was that their path forward became even clearer, and in the future, their cultivation would be smooth sailing. At this moment, both of them had also risen to the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

  Hearing Zhuang Xiong's question, Zi Yu looked at him with a disdainful gaze, as if saying: "Stupid master, why do you want to become a pre-heavenly Dao body? I'm just a mount."

  Kong Xuan also used the Primordial Spirit Way: "I want to cultivate the Five-Colored Divine Ability, using a beast body is the most convenient, anyway, I can transform at any time, what's the difference between early and late?"

  Zhuang Xiong's face turned black with rage as he shouted: "I don't care about you, Zi Yu, but Kong Xuan, you must transform into a Pre-Heavenly Dao Body for me. You are my disciple after all."

  Kong Xuan's eyes showed a hint of grievance, innocently looking at Zhuang Xiong, saying: "Why doesn't Zi Yu use transformation, but I have to? I also want to cultivate the Five Color Divine Ability. Master, you're too selfish, only caring about your own disciples, without considering my future."

  Zhuang Xiong couldn't help but be speechless, his eyes rolled around, and he took out three flags with a smile: "Kong Xuan, if you can transform, I'll give you these three flags. You should know that these are three of the five flags transformed from the Chaotic Qinglian's leaves, each one being a top-notch Primordial Spirit Treasure. Want to consider it?"

  Kong Xuan's eyes sparkled, but Zi Yu suddenly squeezed in with a big head, looking at Zhuang Xiong with a wronged expression, as if saying: "Master, you're biased, giving Kong Xuan treasures but not me."

  Zhuang Xiong coldly snorted and said, "Kong Xuan is much more obedient than you. If you didn't transform, that's fine, but you won't even talk to me? Are you telling me that as a Taiyi Golden Immortal, you still don't know how to transmit your thoughts through divine sense? You're not giving your master any face, and it's already lenient of me not to punish you. Do you still want treasures?"

  Zi Yu looked at Zhuang Xiong's eyes and felt even more wronged, with a hint of resentment.

  Zhuang Xiong couldn't help but feel a headache, although his personality was no longer as muddled and confused as before. In his heart, Zi Yu Ke Kong Xuan had already become one of his own people, so being good to them was only right, wasn't it? He still hoped they would give him some face. Wasn't it unnecessary to be so strict with them?

  Zhuang Xiong rolled around in his own space, then took out four beads and said: "These are the Four Symbol Beads. Each one is a top-grade pre-heavenly spiritual treasure. Together, they also form a top-grade pre-heavenly spiritual treasure. Take them to play with."

  Zi Yu didn't think much of it, opened his mouth and sucked in the four pearls, then shook his head and swished his tail as he left. Zhuang Xiong watched with wide eyes and a stunned expression, and only came back to himself after a while, smiling and waving the three-faced flag at Kong Xuan: "How's that? Little Kong Xuan, do you want to transform and take the treasure or insist on not transforming?"

  Kong Xuan looked at Zhuang Xiong with a humiliated expression, as if he had also learned the ultimate skill of Zi Yu, and his eyes were clearly saying: "You bullied me."

  Zhuang Xiong felt uncomfortable all over, but how could he not know that Kong Xuan's claim that practicing divine powers requires a beastly body was false? He steeled himself and insisted on watching Kong Xuan transform.

  After more than half a watch, Kong Xuan saw that the tearful attack was ineffective and couldn't help but feel somewhat disheartened. He said, "Is what you're saying true? I'll transform and give you those three flags?"

  Zhuang Xiong said in his heart, "Even if you don't transform, I'll still give it to you sooner or later. Who else would I give it to?" But he smiled and said, "Of course, when have I ever lied?"

  Kong Xuan tilted his head, thinking that he hadn't expected Zhuang Xiong to be untrustworthy at times, but found that Zhuang Xiong's face was already covered in black lines. He quickly nodded his head, and only then did Zhuang Xiong look satisfied.

  Kong Xuan first walked to the front of Zi Yu, seemingly discussing something with her. Only then did he walk to the center of the courtyard, just as he was about to transform using his magical powers. However, the Dong Huang Bell suddenly rang out, echoing throughout the Hongyuan. Emperor Jun's voice also echoed along with the bell, spreading throughout the Hongyuan: "I am Emperor Jun, and I will establish the Heavenly Court under the orders of the Ancestor of the Way. I request that the powerful demons come quickly to discuss this matter."

  When the Donghuang Bell rang, Nuwa and Fuxi also came out of the pass. The three of them didn't say much, but Fuxi and Nuwa were worried about the big things in the demon tribe, so they hurried to go to the Heavenly Court to hand over a few words to Zhuanggong. Knowing that Zhuanggong wasn't too fond of Emperor Jun and Taiyi, they didn't invite him to come along, but just bid farewell and left.

  Zhuang Xiong couldn't help but sigh, his eyes gazing out at the vast expanse of the Hong Huang continent. He thought to himself: "Emperor Jun's speed is indeed fast enough, and he truly dares to play the card of Hongyuan. However, with the Heavenly Court in the demon tribe, what actions will the witch tribe take? The Hong Huang continent is about to stir up another storm of blood and rain."

  Zhuang Xiong was still feeling emotional, but suddenly felt a surge of spiritual energy behind him. He quickly turned around to look and saw that the spiritual energy within a radius of ten thousand miles was crazily rushing towards Kong Xuan, gathering together to form a huge spiritual vortex.

  Kong Xuan had now returned to his true form, and the gigantic peacock was also thousands of feet tall. Its twin wings were like clouds, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. The five-colored divine light on its back shone brightly, piercing through the heavens. Just that burst of light alone caused space to collapse, winds to rise, and clouds to surge. The main body of the five-colored divine light was also three thousand feet in size, but it was hazy and indistinct, as if everything around it - space, time, various spiritual energies, even one's line of sight - were all being absorbed into it.

  Kong Xuan was originally full of spiritual energy, but it only took a moment to transform. The vast spiritual energy in the sky instantly wrapped around Kong Xuan, forming a huge egg, and then suddenly exploded with a loud bang. Smoke and dust filled the air, and Zhuang Xiong vaguely saw the figure of a child appearing in the smoke. Just as he was about to get a clear look, Zi Yu suddenly let out a loud roar and burst between the two of them.

  Zhuang Xiong was stunned, and when he came back to his senses, the smoke had already dispersed. The purple jade had also opened up nonchalantly, but standing in front of him was only a small peacock that was only three feet tall.

  Zhuang Xiong finally understood the little trick of the two, but what made him furious was that they actually used this little trick on him, and he was actually deceived by them. He suddenly became angry and shouted: "Is this what you call transformation? I haven't seen anything yet! And you are my disciple, can you be my disciple like this?"

  Kong Xuan exclaimed in surprise: "I've indeed transformed already? It's just that my original body is more comfortable, so I changed back. As for the child, Master, you don't even have a cave abode yet, what do you need a child for?"

  Zhuang Xiong was so angry that he became speechless, then he became furious and shouted: "Let's set off now to find the cave mansion. Ah Zi, come here, I'm going east to find the cave mansion."

  "Master, my banner, you promised me that banner!" Kong Xuan said hastily.

  Zhuang Xiong: "......" He resentfully threw down the three flags and jumped onto Zi Yu's back, urging him to hurry up and depart.

  Kong Xuan happily and cheerfully flashed a five-colored divine light, putting away the three flags, flapping his wings and jumping onto the back of the purple jade.

  Zhuang Xiong couldn't help but glare at Kong Xuan with hatred, then coldly snorted and ignored him. Meanwhile, the purple jade had already risen into the air and flown eastward on its own accord.

  。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

  Zhuang Xiong, the master and servant trio, were indistinguishable from one another, traveling east while fooling around. Their speed was naturally not fast, and a hundred years passed in the blink of an eye. Before Zhuang Xiong could find the cave, Emperor Jun had already made preparations.

  On this day, Taiyi once again struck the Donghuang Bell, and the bell tolled nine times, spreading throughout the vast expanse. As the sound of the bell faded away, the voice of Emperor Jun arose: "I am Emperor Jun, and by the order of the Ancestor of the Way, I have established the Heavenly Court. With the Hetu Luoshu and the Donghuang Bell suppressing the heavenly aura, I now occupy the position of Heavenly Emperor, and appoint Taiyi as the Eastern Sovereign, Fuxi as the Fu Sovereign, Nüwa as the Nü Sovereign. Additionally, ten great marshals are appointed to maintain peace in the vast expanse, assisted by the chieftains of each tribe, governing various regions of the vast expanse. Today, I specially proclaim to Heaven and Earth: The Heavenly Court is now established."

  As Emperor Jun let out a loud roar, the vast sky of Honghuang suddenly emitted endless rays of light, illuminating the entire land. A majestic palace complex appeared and disappeared, filled with mystery and solemnity. As the palace flickered in and out of sight, the air seemed to transform into birds flying and dancing, condensing into flowers that fell from above. The spiritual energy coalesced into dragon shapes, phoenix forms, and qilin-like creatures, circling around the Heavenly Palace, making it even more majestic and extraordinary. The scenery was boundless and beautiful, truly worthy of being called a paradise.

  Zhuang Xiong furrowed his brow, activated the Three Eyes and Six Ears Divine Ability, and gazed towards the Heavenly Court. Indeed, as soon as Emperor Jun's words fell, a cluster of golden aura descended from the sky, with Emperor Jun receiving three portions, Nüwa, Fuxi, and Taiyi each getting one portion, while the remaining four portions were divided into countless shares, dispersing among the crowd present.

  Di Jun was originally barely holding on at the peak of the quasi-sage early stage and the quasi-sage middle stage. At this time, with the help of his merits, he suddenly broke through into the quasi-sage middle stage. Suddenly, his aura surged violently, as if a nine-clawed purple dragon had appeared out of thin air to surround his body, revealing an even more majestic demeanor.

  Di Jun was surprised, but suddenly felt a surge of spiritual energy behind him. He saw that Taiyi and Fuxi had also broken through. Especially Taiyi, who already had an extraordinary aura, seemed to have grown even more majestic and powerful, with a stern expression that commanded respect without being angry. A strong aura emanated from him freely. As for Fuxi, he became even more ethereal and mysterious, with a smiling face, yet his calm demeanor made people feel as if they were basking in the warmth of spring.

  Di Jun was overjoyed, and the heavens bestowed blessings as proof. He hung up the sign of the Heavenly Way and Hong Jun, and his plan became even more successful. He busied himself congratulating several people, then hastily invited guests from all sides to come.

  At this time, the Tiangong was not short of people, but Emperor Jun, Nuwa and others knew that Zhuang Xiong had a bad impression on the demon tribe, so they didn't even greet him. The three Qing were busy with their closed-door meditation and wouldn't attend such a boring gathering. However, Hongyun, who had broken through to the middle of the quasi-saint stage, seemed to be an unexpected occurrence, and he himself didn't seem to understand the situation. He was still wandering in the vast wilderness, but his presence was not lacking in this lively event.

  Zhenyuanzi didn't show up, he was also a diligent cultivator, probably still in closed-door meditation. At this time, Emperor Jun saw that his merits had broken through the late stage of Quasi-Sainthood. Hongyun and others rushed forward to congratulate him, but some people whispered privately, Emperor Jun's establishment of the Heavenly Court could obtain merits, it can be seen that this move was indeed following the will of Heaven. With the permission of the Ancestral Founder, the Heavenly Way acknowledged, the future of the Heavenly Court seemed bright, why not join the Heavenly Court and strive for a share of merits?
