Chapter 2941: The Reestablishment of the Heavenly Court!
The top-tier powerhouses across all realms had an uncanny ability to hear even the faintest whispers—Song Shuhang had experienced this firsthand many times.
For instance, if he were to badmouth Father Goudan or mention Goudan in a negative light, the retribution from Father Goudan would soon follow. And then there was Senior White Two...
The same went for the Devil Emperor. Even when gravely injured, if Song Shuhang so much as muttered something bad about him behind his back, the Devil Emperor would sense it, perform a quick divination, and immediately track Song Shuhang down!
The supreme beings of all realms were just that powerful! So, if you wanted to plot against them, the first step was to find a way to block their celestial senses.
Of course, these beings didn't just pick up on everything indiscriminately.
Certain conditions had to be met for them to sense anything at all. Factors like the level of threat, the closeness of the relationship, whether there was a conspiracy at play, whether it posed any danger to them, or if there were any information-blocking techniques involved—these all served as prerequisites. After a complex set of calculations, the supreme beings would then pick up on the situation.
They were busy, after all. They couldn't be receiving alerts all day, like "ding-dong~ ding-dong~."
Song Shuhang and the likes of Father Goudan, Goudan, Senior White Two, and Three-Eyed Senior had close connections, so just thinking about them would trigger their senses.
As for the Devil Emperor, since Song Shuhang was considered a "source of danger," the moment he mentioned the Devil Emperor, the latter would instantly become agitated.
So...
Song Shuhang averted his gaze, pretending the restored gray ID didn't exist and deliberately avoided focusing on it.
Otherwise, just having the thought of calculating against it, coupled with his current "threat level," would trigger the opponent's senses. They would then take a series of defensive measures, creating unnecessary trouble.
Currently, the "restored" gray ID's connection to the supreme being was one-way, like it was sealed. There was no need to worry about the opponent using this ID to log back in and cause trouble.
As long as Song Shuhang didn't intentionally activate this ID, it would remain as if it didn't exist.
"I need to wait... at least until my Causality Saber can rub shoulders with a few more powerhouses," Song Shuhang thought to himself.
One day, when I collect a complete set of 'Divine Cards' for my Causality Saber, nothing will be able to stand in my way—be it gods, Buddhas, demons, or anything else!
After a moment of quiet, passionate contemplation, Song Shuhang's mood finally calmed down.
In the hazy mist, he shifted his position to the right, moving a couple of seats over to lean against the right armrest.
"It's huge," Song Shuhang remarked.
Like the dragon throne from ancient China, the Heavenly Emperor's throne of the ancient Heavenly Court was particularly spacious. Sitting on one side of the armrest, one couldn't even touch the other side.
But bigger isn't always better... For example, now that Song Shuhang wanted to change his sitting position, he had to scoot over several seats, which was tiring.
"The Heavenly Emperor must have had terrible lower back problems," Song Shuhang commented.
After saying this, he intentionally fell silent for a long while.
But the sound he expected—a voice with a 'da' ending—never came.
"Not even a reaction to a comment about a herniated disc? Or is it that she really hasn't revived yet?" Song Shuhang mused, leaning against the right armrest.
Normally, when the 'Immortal Whale Golden Core' resurrection ability was activated, he should have revived on the spot. Where he fell, he should have risen again!
However, instead of reviving on the spot, he reappeared a long distance away, sitting on the 'Heavenly Emperor's Throne Two' in the Heavenly Emperor's palace!
This strange occurrence made Song Shuhang suspicious.
Could it be that the Heavenly Emperor was manipulating things behind the scenes?
Has she already revived?
Or is she using my 'revival' to secretly set up a scheme?
To be honest, the Heavenly Emperor had helped Song Shuhang a lot in the later stages.
She had been deliberately trying to befriend Song Shuhang.
Given her methods and experience, winning someone's favor was easy for her—after all, she once gathered a large group of diverse and powerful cultivators around her, establishing the ancient Heavenly Court with herself at the center!
Her charisma was undeniable!
Over time, as Song Shuhang interacted with her, he found himself harboring less and less resentment toward her. This was a testament to her exceptional social skills.
Now, Song Shuhang only retained a baseline level of wariness toward her.
This cautious stance would remain unless there was a dramatic change in their relationship.
"Not coming out? Given the time, you should have already revived by now, right?" Song Shuhang, realizing he couldn't provoke her, decided to cut to the chase.
His voice echoed through the 'Heavenly Emperor's Palace.'
But the Heavenly Emperor still didn't respond.
Song Shuhang then opened the 'Cultivation Chat' system to check on the Heavenly Emperor's status.
[Fox Friend] Heavenly Emperor Dadadazi (Status: Deader than dead).
"So, dealing with you 'deader than dead' folks is really frustrating. Can't everyone just be a bit more straightforward? Like me! People should trust each other more!" Song Shuhang sighed.
Just as he finished speaking, his own profile popped up in the 'Cultivation Chat' system.
[Server Goudan Group Leader] Song Shuhang (Status: Deader than dead).
Song Shuhang was speechless.
He was speechless.
He looked up at the sky.
Who would've thought... I'm also 'deader than dead' now.
But my soul is still intact, right? If my soul isn't dead, how can I be 'deader than dead'?
Could it be that my soul, which has been divided into 15+1 pieces, is also considered in a 'dismembered' state?
While Song Shuhang was deep in thought...
A rumbling sound came from the Heavenly Court fragment area within the core world—a sign that something massive had just landed. It was the sound of the Golden Trigram Island Lord moving his 'Heavenly Court fragments' over.
This time, the core assistant didn't take the opportunity to forcefully expand the core world's territory using the 'Heavenly Court fragments'... after all, the Golden Trigram Island Lord's 'Heavenly Court fragments' were only on loan. Once he was done, they'd be returned.
Rumble rumble~
With the Golden Trigram Island Lord's 'Heavenly Court fragments' in place, the Heavenly Court fragment area within the core world began to resonate.
This resonance traveled across the 'core world,' reached the present world, and extended to most of the heavens and realms near the present world, including Earth!
This resonance signaled that the 'ancient Heavenly Court fragments' had reached a critical mass, and the basic framework of the ancient Heavenly Court had been rebuilt—announcing the rebirth of the ancient Heavenly Court that had fallen in ancient times!
This resonance had an effect similar to that of a 'Saintly Sermon.'
In more than half of the heavens and realms, cultivators all looked up at the sky in the same direction.
In their sight, a magnificent palace's phantom image appeared, floating above the clouds.
The Heavenly Court!
The invincible Heavenly Court had returned!
