Chapter 1000: Chapter 310: Deadly Trap_4
For ordinary Supremes, this is something that cannot be accomplished even in tens of millions of years.
Even in hundreds of millions of years, if they can improve slightly, it would be a surprising achievement.
Upon reaching the Supreme Realm, it’s as if the path has reached its end.
Wanting to improve slightly is an extremely difficult task.
This is one of the reasons why some Supremes, after becoming Supremes, remain at the same level of power for untold ages.
It’s not that they don’t want a breakthrough, but they truly can’t achieve it.
Therefore, the Wood God’s desire to become a Supreme of the Three Realms isn’t because there’s any glory in being a Supreme of the Three Realms.
The main reason is that being a Supreme of the Three Realms offers tremendous benefits to cultivation,
therefore, the Wood God wants to become a Supreme of the Three Realms to aid his breakthrough and become an even higher existence.
Others find it absolutely ludicrous that the Wood God wants to become a Supreme of the Three Realms.
There are some Supremes who are unwilling to take that position.
Because becoming a Supreme of the Three Realms signifies responsibility.
But for the sake of strength, the Wood God doesn’t care about such things.
The Great Emperor Ziwei closed his eyes, cultivating and his power improved rapidly.
Wherever the Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate was, he had already sensed what Lord Taishang was doing, including going to the Heavenly Court to question the Great Emperor Ziwei.
This aroused a hint of doubt in Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s heart.
Could it be that he really misunderstood Lord Taishang, and this was actually a scheme of the Heavenly Court, sowing discord?
Thinking of this, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate felt somewhat ashamed.
If that were truly the case, he had indeed misunderstood Lord Taishang, which was truly awkward.
At this time, Lingbao Dao Venerate arrived.
With a smile on his face, he said, “Lord Taishang went to the Ziwei Heavenly Court to question the Great Emperor Ziwei. Now you can believe in Lord Taishang, right? Although nobody can quite see through what he wants to do, he is still not a problem for us.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate nodded slightly, acknowledging it now.
If Lord Taishang truly harbored any thoughts about them and wanted to scheme against them, even removing them from the ranks of the Three Pure Ones, and letting the Heavenly Court revere him alone, there should be follow-up means.
But he didn’t do that, instead he went to question the Great Emperor Ziwei, which led Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate to choose to trust Lord Taishang.
“It’s just strange, who exactly told the Great Emperor Ziwei that you had a conflict, and Lord Taishang even injured you? Is there really someone who can discern our matters?”
Lingbao Dao Venerate furrowed his brows tightly.
Hearing Lingbao Dao Venerate’s words, a glimmer flashed in Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s eyes.
He sneered, saying, “Who else could it be? You couldn’t possibly say, after all, if you had said it, you wouldn’t have been abandoned by the Heavenly Court. Now it seems I thought too highly of Lord Taishang.”
“What do you mean? Are you saying he is the one who spread this, and now he’s putting on a show for you in the Heavenly Court? That’s impossible, right? Lord Taishang isn’t that despicable.”
Lingbao Dao Venerate shook his head, clearly looking unconvinced.
Sitting beside Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate, he smiled and said, “I think you’re misunderstanding Lord Taishang. Although he’s quite mysterious, he’s quite reliable in his actions and would never do such a thing. You can rest assured.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate smiled faintly, with a glint in his eyes, and said, “Rest assured? That’s impossible. If you hadn’t reminded me just now, I almost got fooled by Lord Taishang. He is still acting for me, how ridiculous. Does he think he’s the only smart person in the world?”
Saying this, a sharp light flashed in Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s eyes.
He said coldly, “Forget it, I don’t care about him that much. I hope he doesn’t provoke me in the future. If he schemes against me again, I’ll overturn the Ziwei Heavenly Court and kill that Sun Wukong; let’s see what he can calculate then?”
Lingbao Dao Venerate’s face changed drastically, he hurriedly shouted, “You mustn’t, Daoist friend, think thrice. If you do so, it means you’ve completely turned against Lord Taishang, and he won’t spare you.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate suddenly turned around, his gaze fixed on Lingbao Dao Venerate, full of intense dissatisfaction, and he said with an icy expression, “What do you mean? Do you think I’m not a match for Lord Taishang?”
Lingbao Dao Venerate opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything.
He didn’t dare to say Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate wasn’t a match for Lord Taishang.
But saying Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate could defeat Lord Taishang was a bit too far-fetched.
After all, not long ago, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate was injured by Lord Taishang.
Although Lord Taishang only had a slight upper hand, it showed Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate indeed was lesser than Lord Taishang.
Taking a deep breath, from the look in Lingbao Dao Venerate’s eyes, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate already saw the answer.
He sneered, saying lightly, “Lingbao Dao Venerate, I understand your point. You think Lord Taishang is very powerful? Before, when he injured me, it was only because I held back, I spared him, but once I truly become angry, so what about Lord Taishang? I can still defeat him.”
Of course, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate didn’t speak of killing.
Their minor frictions weren’t enough to reach that level of killing.
Moreover, wanting to kill such beings of their level, how much effort would it take? Probably no one can afford it.
Even if he was schemed by Lord Taishang, and no longer respected by the Heavenly Court, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate wouldn’t reach the point of killing Lord Taishang.
“Hehe, I know of your great strength, I have high hopes for you.”
