Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this moment, the system’s voice rang out.
[Ding! Host’s current status detected! The host is given the following mission options!]
[Mission 1: Ignore the Heavenly Court and do your own thing!]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]
[Mission Reward: 500,000 energy points, Advanced Gacha xi!]
[Mission 2: Successfully join the Heavenly Court and become an official!]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]
[Mission Reward: 1 million energy points, Top-grade Gacha xi!]
[Mission 3: Successfully join the Heavenly Court and build your own network. You must at least make two allies who are Heavenly Court officials!]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]
[Mission Reward: 2 million energy points, Immortal-grade Gacha xi, Immortal Treasure Chest xi!]
w.a.n.g Mang, who was still laughing, was slightly taken aback and surprised.
Did this mission mean that the system wanted him to join the Heavenly Court now?
He hesitated for a moment before coming to a decision. It made sense after all. This world was one that centered around relationships and connections, so if he had no allies, he would become isolated within the Heavenly Court, and it would be difficult for him to accomplish anything.
“System, 1 choose Mission 3!”
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has successfully selected a mission option. Please complete the mission as soon as possible to obtain the reward!]
In any case, this mission was a good thing, since he planned on joining the Heavenly Court anyway. It would be a waste not to visit the biggest faction in this world, and free rewards were always great.
w.a.n.g Mang swept his gaze across the group and nodded.
“Very good! You may leave, but don’t forget what 1 said earlier!”
Hearing this, the four generals and Crown Prince Ao Ang nodded and left.
After those guys left, w.a.n.g Mang also left the West Sea Dragon Palace impatiently. He did not even bother saying goodbye to the West Sea Dragon King.
w.a.n.g Mang felt that there was basically no need to. In any case, the West Sea Dragon King definitely knew that he had killed the two Taiyi Golden Immortal realm experts, and thus probably did not want to see him anyway.
After all, w.a.n.g Mang could no longer be considered a subordinate, but a threat. Of course, it was impossible for the West Sea Dragon King to remove w.a.n.g Mang from his position.
If he angered w.a.n.g Mang, his position would become even more tenuous as all four generals and the Crown Prince supported w.a.n.g Mang.
After leaving the West Sea, w.a.n.g Mang flew toward the skies.
Needless to say, the Heavenly Court was naturally in the sky, so he just had to fly up. After flying up for an unknown period of time, he inadvertently caught sight of a ma.s.sive palace looming in the clouds in the distance. It looked like a city in the sky.
“Is that the Heavenly Court?”
Thinking this, w.a.n.g Mang hurriedly flew toward it, and soon arrived at the gates. From the outside, he could sense that there was a terrifying spatial barrier that sealed off the entire city.
Moreover, there were three words written above the city gates: West Heavenly Gate!
This was obviously the legendary Heavenly Court!
w.a.n.g Mang had heard that the Heavenly Court had four Heavenly Gates, and he could see the armored soldiers stationed at the gate.
When they saw w.a.n.g Mang approaching, the leader of the soldiers immediately shouted at w.a.n.g Mang, “Who are you and what are you doing in the Heavenly Court?”
Upon hearing this, w.a.n.g Mang sized up the leader, and to his shock, realized that this fellow was quite possibly a middle-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal realm expert.
w.a.n.g Mang quickly cupped his hands and smiled.
“Greetings! I am the new Moon Elder.”
With that said, w.a.n.g Mang took out the third-grade Immortal Chapter. Thanks to the system’s convenient a.s.sistance, this had already received the recognition of the Heavenly Court.
Hearing this, the leader took w.a.n.g Mang’s token in surprise and examined it. After that, his att.i.tude changed.
With a smile on his face, he said, “So it’s the new Moon Elder! Please come in!
In the future, when you have time, you should come over and visit my residence!”
Hearing this, w.a.n.g Mang immediately guessed that this guy must be one of the Four Heavenly Kings!
The next moment, w.a.n.g Mang quietly used his information detection skill.
[Target: Nation Protecting Heavenly King (Fifth-grade Official). HP: 5,400, Energy: 5,400, Fourth-level Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.]
However, what puzzled w.a.n.g Mang was the fact that despite how strong this guy was, why was he only a fifth-grade official?
Of course, w.a.n.g Mang did not ask about it even though he did not understand.
On the contrary, w.a.n.g Mang smiled enthusiastically.
“Sure! When I have time, 1 will definitely come to visit you!”
“Ahaha! Fellow Daoist, please! Since you’re new, you must be unfamiliar with the Heavenly Court. I’ll go with you!”
With that, the Heavenly King chuckled and led w.a.n.g Mang into the Heavenly Court.
What was worth mentioning was that the Heavenly Court was really huge. There were clouds and mist everywhere, and it looked grand and majestic. The vast and dense immortal qi here was much denser than outside.
“Dao friend, who invited you to join the Heavenly Court?”
At this moment, the Nation Protecting Heavenly King, suddenly asked a question with a smile.
Hearing this, w.a.n.g Mang’s heart stirred, and he could not help but wonder, ‘Did he have to have connections to join Heavenly Court?’
Then again, when he recalled what kind of world this was, w.a.n.g Mang felt that it was possible. Even the Buddhist Sect was probably the same.
Despite figuring this out, w.a.n.g Mang did not know how to answer. After all, he had only gotten in here thanks to the system’s reward.
Seeing that w.a.n.g Mang was smiling and not saying anything, the Heavenly King did not ask further.
Soon, he brought w.a.n.g Mang to the palace that had been a.s.signed to the Mood Elder, which was impressively large.
Once there, the Heavenly King smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, I’ll be heading off. Don’t forget to pay me a visit.”
After saying that, the Heavenly King chuckled and left.
As for w.a.n.g Mang, he entered his own palace. Once inside, he realized that there was a different world inside, like a paradise.
Under a towering tree, there was an old man watering some plants.
Upon seeing w.a.n.g Mang, the old man immediately stood up and frowned. He stepped forward and berated w.a.n.g Mang,
“Who are you? How dare you barge into my palace.”
w.a.n.g Mang was stunned. He looked at the old man in astonishment and asked, “You are the Moon Elder?”
Hearing this, the white-haired old man was furious.. His face was gloomy as he shouted angrily, “How presumptuous! If I’m not the Moon Elder, then are you going to tell me that you are the Moon Elder?”
