The five Spiritual Illusion Realms are still evolving, and the Saints observe them, seemingly having deduced the fates of these five beings.
Di Jun’s mind stirred, and the time within the Spiritual Illusion Realm sped by rapidly again.
Bo Huang remained unchanged, firmly backed by the Heavenly Court, his position was stable, and he exerted no pressure on the beings of the Primordial Continent.
Of course, Bo Huang did not intervene in the various struggles on the Primordial Continent. The Immortal Court he led, like the Demon Clan or the Heavenly Court, remained aloof.
Only when battles could affect the Primordial Continent did the Immortal Court led by Bo Huang truly take action.
In the Immortal Court led by Maitreya, the number of Buddhist disciples kept increasing, and their desire to gain merit was continuously growing.
His schemes within the Primordial were becoming more prevalent, and his ’fishing’ behavior was becoming more evident, causing more resentment from the beings of the Primordial Continent towards the Immortal Court.
Additionally, the present Immortal Court dared to scheme against the Daluo Golden Immortals on the Primordial Continent, and not just one; it involved multiple races.
Because the stronger the cultivation, the greater the destruction to the Primordial Continent.
If the Immortal Court could suppress them, the merit gained would be even more substantial.
Moreover, when facing various races, the Immortal Court occupied the moral high ground, remaining assertive, for it was the beings of those races that erred first, which led them to be suppressed.
However, those who could withstand temptation were ultimately very few.
The test itself was inducing beings to make mistakes.
In the imaginations of the Immortal Court, once they grew strong in the future, they might be able to guide beings to do what Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had done.
If the beings doing such things were suppressed, how immense would the merit be?
Unfortunately, before the Immortal Court could possess such power, Donghuang Taiyi, stationed on the Sun Star, began to take action.
The shift in the wills of beings on the Primordial Continent alerted Donghuang Taiyi to the immense accumulation of Heaven and Earth Karma by the Immortal Court.
This matter was enough for the Immortal Court to act as Heaven’s executioner.
Donghuang Taiyi had long grown weary of the Immortal Court’s hypocritical behavior.
He held such actions of the Immortal Court in utter disdain.
And with this given opportunity, Donghuang Taiyi had no hesitation and immediately took action.
He personally led three hundred and sixty-five Main Star Gods to Penglai Immortal Island.
Back when facing the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation of East King, Donghuang Taiyi led three hundred and sixty-five Star Gods, managing to make East King suffer.
Now with Maitreya’s cultivation only at the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal, he was naturally no match.
Facing Donghuang Taiyi, representing the Heavenly Court’s execution, Maitreya still wore a full smile.
Even when he learned of the Heavenly Court’s purpose, Maitreya still smiled fully.
Despite his demeanor, only he knew the bitterness in his heart, and he couldn’t help but think: Our Immortal Court has such immense merit; why does this still attract the Heavenly Court?
The means of obtaining merit, does it not matter?
And upon meeting Donghuang Taiyi, and understanding the reason behind the events, Maitreya immediately made a decision in his heart.
"Donghuang, all issues stem from the negligence of myself, this Immortal Emperor, and the Immortal Court. I am deeply ashamed."
"I am willing to relinquish my Immortal Emperor Karma Position, taking my Buddhist disciples away from the Immortal Court and no longer interfering with the matters of the Primordial Immortal Court."
Maitreya understood the current situation and thus relinquished everything decisively, without hesitation.
According to his calculations, the Heavenly Court’s grand appearance on Penglai Immortal Island signaled the point of no return.
If that’s the case, why fight? Preserving the strength of Buddhist disciples and returning to the Western Primordial, isn’t that better?
Surrendering the entire Immortal Court was already a significant enough price.
Donghuang Taiyi’s gaze fell on Maitreya, and hearing Maitreya’s words, he too felt exceedingly surprised.
He hadn’t expected Maitreya to be so decisive, to relinquish such a vast foundation, nurtured over countless ages, without hesitation.
Maitreya noticed Donghuang Taiyi’s expression remained serious, and an ominous feeling surfaced in his heart.
Then he heard the voice of Donghuang Taiyi.
"Maitreya, even if you abandon the Immortal Emperor Karma Position, you cannot escape the punishment that is due."
Before Maitreya could finish speaking, Donghuang Taiyi had already begun to act. Updates are released by novel•fire.net
He saw the Donghuang Bell appear in his hand, a Thunder Mark entering the Donghuang Bell.
With a thought, Donghuang Taiyi had the three hundred sixty-five Main Star Gods form the Celestial Heaven Star Formation over a century.
The star power that emerged from it all flooded into the Donghuang Bell.
With the tolling of each bell sound, thunder appeared all over the sky above the Immortal Court.
Acting as Heaven’s executioner not only punished the Immortal Court but all primordial beings could also be punished.
The source of that Thunder Mark was in the hands of Emperor Jun of the Demon Clan; Heavenly Court beings could wield this power too.
Seeing the vast thunder power, Maitreya’s expression finally changed. The smile vanished quickly, replaced by horror.
Because he realized this vast thunder wasn’t ordinary but was the Nine Heavens Heavenly Thunder. Even he couldn’t be confident of surviving in such enormous heavenly thunder.
Donghuang Taiyi moved his mind, and the Nine Heavens Heavenly Thunder descended directly, striking densely onto Penglai Immortal Island.
Donghuang Taiyi and the three hundred sixty-five Main Star Gods were the only ones not targeted by any of the thunder.
