This time, Yang Jian didn't want any gifts. He simply wanted to see if the passage had truly been closed.
He chanted the prayers.
The altar lit up.
For the tranquility that Chang'e pursued—
To be honest, only the gods could grant it to her.
Although Chang'e was the reincarnation of the Taiyin True Spirit—how many people watched her hungrily?
The male immortals of the heavenly court—
Nine out of ten wanted to claim Chang'e for themselves. But this fairy had a transcendent status and very high standards.
She couldn't even stand to look at the trash crowned by the monkeys.
And that Jade Emperor had spied on her more than once.
This made Chang'e even more disgusted.
As a result, Zhu Bajie's drunken trick had been derived from this entire mess.
It was truly revolting.
So when the Jade Emperor asked if she was willing to serve the gods, Chang'e had readily agreed.
The Jade Emperor's ugly face—
Chang'e truly wanted to vomit just looking at it.
"You could be my wife without having to serve the gods, and I could talk to that nephew of mine," he had said.
But she, Chang'e, would not let the Jade Emperor have his wish.
Instead of being ruined by that filth—
It was better to devote herself to the gods. At least his identity stood above everything else.
As the streamer lit up—
Yang Jian saw countless gray shadows shrouded across the sky. They appeared capable of blocking the road linking to the gods.
The land of Lingshan.
The Demon Buddha Tathagata watched Yang Jian cast the spell and could not help but sneer: "As long as your passage is broken, there will be no way to contact that Pangu-level god. Huh... the power of Heaven's Dao, plus the power of chaos and evil—
This is the strongest power. When I swallow this world, I will be able to escape!
Hahahaha..."
His laughter was harsh and grating.
In the bloodstained land of Lingshan, it echoed endlessly.
But soon, the Tathagata could no longer laugh. Because the beam of heavenly light broke through his own blockade and ascended directly to the Divine Realm.
This... what was going on?
Was there something wrong?
The Tathagata tried to increase his strength—but found that his own power of Heaven's Dao could not reach the Guanjiang Estuary.
"Damn it... this Heaven's Dao truly is useless..."
The Tathagata cursed furiously.
He was like a mad patient.
The purple and blue monstrous stripes on his face grew more and more ferocious.
When he raged, billions of monsters roared in response.
And they began slaughtering humans and all other creatures even more fiercely.
"It seems I still lacked confidence in the power of the gods. The power of Heaven's Dao is worthless. I was careless..."
Yang Jian curled his mouth, his face full of displeasure.
However—he had sent two goddesses upward.
The gods should be pleased.
Shouldn't they?
Within the Divine Realm.
Yang Chan was sparring with Bai Suzhen.
The other newly promoted goddesses sat on the sidelines watching the battle.
Both of them belonged to God.
Naturally their exchange was extremely pleasing to the eye.
However—although Bai Suzhen relied on the power of the Candle Dragon and possessed endless divine might to draw upon, Yang Chan relied on unique techniques.
And application of the law.
Neither could gain the upper hand over the other.
The battle that lasted three hours ended in a draw.
"Hah... I'm still not as good as my sister..."
Yang Chan swept her hair back and combed it upward. She had been fighting so intensely just now that even her hair had become disheveled.
She knew the other party had been holding back.
Otherwise, if Bai Suzhen activated the True God of the Candle Dragon form—
She would not be able to handle it. Being able to tie in human form was already her limit.
Bai Suzhen shook her head and said: "Even if I become a dragon, I am actually not as flexible as I am in this form. In truth, sister—you are very strong..."
Belonging to God—
Aside from the faction leaders—
The other sisters were actually of roughly equal strength.
It wasn't that she was being self-effacing.
At this time, Liu Che smiled and said: "Well. Since there is a tie, let me comment on it.
Suzhen—your shortcoming is that you are not aggressive enough toward your sisters. Every time you prepare some powerful move, your strength subconsciously diminishes greatly.
This allows Yang Chan to defeat your techniques many times over.
In truth, if you fully used the Candle Dragon's power at full strength, you would have had at least three opportunities where you could have clearly defeated Yang Chan."
Upon hearing God's commentary—
Yang Chan suddenly understood.
"So that's how it was! I thought it was because my strength had improved, or that my sister was holding back..."
Bai Suzhen pursed her lips and said faintly: "It's just a sparring match. If someone got hurt, that wouldn't be good at all."
The atmosphere in the harem was as harmonious as ever.
This was what satisfied Liu Che most.
Everyone could always, inadvertently—
Reveal their own unique character.
For example, the newly promoted Cai Wenji always made cakes for the other sisters who were training hard.
Or she practiced various support techniques.
The girl had said, the last time she went to bed:
"Since I can't fight, and I'm also timid—I'll be a support talent with peace of mind. I will do whatever my sisters lack..."
In truth, there were many women who thought like her.
For example, the goddesses of Shi Feixuan's faction.
Most of them were like this.
Rarely, like Xueqi, did they persist in cultivating relentlessly.
The goddesses seated here were all deeply moved.
They secretly vowed in their hearts that if they became stronger, they would treat the new sisters with the same gentleness as Sister Bai Suzhen.
In a moment—
A golden carriage came from the distance.
Galadriel, accompanied by Arwen and Tu Shan Yaya, descended from it with great dignity.
The ordinary goddesses hurriedly offered their respects.
But she was stopped by each of them, one after another.
"Everyone is a sister here. Don't fuss over such courtesy..."
With a flick of her finger, the blonde queen distributed her own trinkets to all the sisters.
They were all small items from her world.
A batch had been made last time.
Unexpectedly, the audience loved them greatly.
For example—some hairpins, and beautiful crystal high heels.
And some exotic long dresses.
"Thank you, Sister Galadriel."
All the goddesses thanked her, then departed with smiles.
The competition was over.
Naturally they had nothing more to watch.
But Galadriel smiled, lying weak and boneless in Liu Che's arms, and said obsessively: "God... I missed you so much."
"You... are really getting bolder and bolder. In front of the new sisters, you always put on that cold queenly look. But the moment they leave, you become this little fool..."
"But you just love it like this~~~"
Galadriel lowered her head and sighed in a whispered, coquettish tone.
Arwen and Tu Shan Yaya, who had come with her, had long since grown accustomed to her approach. Instead of teasing her, they set up an ink-wash barrier nearby.
...
For a long while, Liu Che sat holding the beauty. Then the system prompt sounded in his ear.
"Ding... Your Master Priest, Yang Jian, has sacrificed a Taiyin Goddess—Chang'e. Triggering a 100,000-fold increase. Congratulations! You have obtained a Nine-Star Goddess—the True Spirit of Taiyin[Chang'e]."
[Lunar True Spirit]: A rare galaxy true spirit has entered your divine system. Her arrival will increase the power of the lunar system by 30% throughout your Divine Realm.
"Ding... Your Master Priest, Yang Jian, has sacrificed a goddess—Jade Rabbit. Triggering a 10,000-fold increase. Congratulations! You have obtained a Five-Star Goddess—the Demon Spirit[Jade Rabbit]."
"Hey... Why is Yang Jian suddenly offering sacrifices to Chang'e..."
Liu Che was a little puzzled. He opened the chat group to check.
Judicial God: "Damn it... I was stunned by that idiot. This baby feels terrible... grievance.jpg"
General Yuwen: "What's wrong, Second Brother? What shameless thing did the Tathagata do?"
Spirit of the Demon Sword: "It's not easy to get Yang Jian angry..."
Junior Brother of Dazhufeng: "Explain..."
Troubled Times: "I think it must be a big event. Hehe..."
Judicial God: "Kong Xuan volunteered to guard Nanzhan Buzhou. As a result, when dealing with Mount Putuo, she encountered a clone of the Demon Buddha Tathagata. When she killed the opponent, she heard that this bastard had sealed off the Three Realms.
He even said triumphantly that I could not contact the gods.
At that time, I thought—the chat group definitely wouldn't be affected. So I wanted to test whether the altar could still be used. And then I sacrificed Chang'e..."
Ordinary Ye Laohei: "Hahahaha... Brother, you're killing me. You actually believed that? The clever Judicial God drank fake wine today..."
Pudu Student: "Hey, it's actually nothing. Isn't it just Fairy Chang'e..."
Tanjiro: "But wait—that's not right. Then why was the Tathagata so confident?"
Alice: "He probably has brain problems. Too arrogant..."
She had a point.
But there was more to it than that.
If Yang Jian hadn't promoted God's faith, and the heavens of this world were still intact—then this passage might truly have been sealed.
Heaven needed to be flawless.
It could not have gaps.
But now it was different.
The Tang Empire and the border nations all believed in the Eternal Faith—so the heavens had been directly fractured.
There was no longer such powerful force to maintain it.
The current blockade of the Three Realms—
It only sealed the creatures within. It could not affect the altar at all.
After all, the strength of both parties was not on the same level.
Now, only a true god could break this seal. The Tathagata was truly pathetic.
Liu Che watched them chat, rolled over lazily, and went back to sleep.
It was better to spend time with the goddesses than worry about this.
Inside the Demon Spirit Temple.
Yutu looked timidly at the rabbit sitting at the door. Their eyes met.
Garlott stopped gnawing the god-level radish halfway through and asked: "Hey... my name is Garlott. Would you like to have a radish?"
The latter looked at the verdant radish and wanted to nod.
But it was covered in drool.
The jade rabbit, with her clean heart, shook her head gently.
Although she wanted it in her heart, she didn't want to eat someone else's leftovers.
That was disgusting.
However—this rabbit goddess was so slender. Her legs were enviable. And her long, flowing hair—
So beautiful.
Garlott had not expected the other party to refuse. She tilted her head and fell into contemplation.
Until a helpless voice came from inside the temple.
"Garlott, you have a good heart. But you can't give half of what you've already eaten to someone else..."
"Ah... so that's it!"
Garlott's eyes lit up. She suddenly understood.
